The Finest Bread Of Heaven & Sweetest Holy Ghost Wine......deno.....pray and share freely.
Satans Trick Against Us......share freely....deno
Denos
Testimonies from lessons I have learned. I pray this light and life's
experience of mine blesses you all in Jesus Name. Amen.
.........Lesson Part...Darkness dominated the void before God said let there be light. Void and emptiness was there before the light of life filled the emptiness with the organized Universe. The disease was there first and then Jesus brought the healing. Their bellies were empty first and then Jesus fed the five thousand. The hunger and thirst was there first and then came the satisfaction. The net was first empty before Jesus caused the GREAT CATCH. The storm rose first and then Jesus caused the perfect calm.The people sat in darkness first and then to them came the great light of Christ. Jairus' little daughter was dead first before Jesus came and raised her from the dead. The blind mans eyes were in darkness first before he was given great sight. They took up stones to stone her first before Jesus caused every one of them to throw down the stone. The woman was guilty of adultery first before Jesus forgave her and remembered her sins no more. The tablets of stone came before the heart of flesh. Spiritual death came first before being born again came on the scene by Jesus Christ. Death came first before the resurrection. The first Adam was of the earth, the second Adam, Jesus, came down from heaven. Sin came first before Jesus purchased full pardon and forgiveness. Works of the law came first before the sweetness of grace (unmerited favor). Sin entered first before Christ took the problem of the sin of the world away. Paul was an enemy of Christ first before Jesus' light and love melted his heart and then Jesus became Paul's first love and best friend. We all were lost first before we by Jesus Christ became the found. We were all together guilty first before the the judge himself pardon us and set us free by the sacrifice of himself.
..........We could go on and on about the glory of Jesus Christ and how he is our great NEED PROVIDER AND PROBLEM FIXER. How he is all and everything we need. A Wonderful Savior, A Beautiful Lord and God. All he ask is that we believe Him (His Words). That we trust him and believe on His Name and love for us, praising him in the spirit of life and of holiness. That we, when we pray, we believe we receive and we shall also see more and more the Lord, our Savior, our Healer, our Redeemer, Our Provider, Our Problem Solvers glory do the work and perform the miracles and supply the provisions.
..........But we need to know and to remember this, this TRICK OF THE DEVIL. Just remember, a lot of times Satan makes our situations look, seem, appear, or even become a whole lot worse before Jesus' grace abounds in the situation and calms the raging seas going on in our life. Jesus said and told us that it is those whose faith endures and who believe unto the end, they are the ones saved and are the possessors.
.........This and these truths mentioned above are seen all thru the life of Jesus in the New Testament. So when you are believing God for something, when you are trusting the Lord, don't let Satan deceive you into fear and doubt. Even when doubt and negative thoughts seem to come against your faith and mind like weighty tons of the waves of the opposition from darkness, recall what we read today in this lesson and stand your ground on the Words of promise and resist the faith devourer. Many times in the bible things are a huge great big hopeless looking mess of problems before Jesus heals and mends and provides and fills the nets and the twelves baskets again to the full and overflowing measure.

............Now My Testimony in the light of this lesson.......Many years ago I had a problem, an issue, a great need dear to my heart and life. I needed like a miracle. I needed divine intervention. A friend who was also a preacher and a strong believer came to visit me. He knew my problem and my issue, my need. I had been praying with tears about this situation but seems to know real avail. This preacher said, Deno. I believe we are in the will of God about this so we can pray and believe God together. Come, lets go into the office and pray.
........Folks we entered that office room and he grabbed a hold of my hand and he began to pray. This preacher could pray. He was praising God and unraveling Satan all at the same time. He was loosing heaven and binding hell in Jesus Name and man i felt Gods presence and Spirit flowing in us, with us in power. Holding on to him I was like hanging on. Well eventually he ceased the prayer. To me it seemed like, by the manner that that preacher believed and prayed, it seem like we just left a battle zone.
..........Well I'm a younger man in those days and I was like, do I build this man of God a tablernacle, One for the Father, One for Jesus and one for him next to Jesus (lol). I mean I felt I was on holy ground in the presence of this praying preacher who just showed me strength and power in the Name of Lord. Well this preaching man right after he ceased praying stared me in the face and said these words. I will never ever forget them. He didn't shout the victory. He didn't do a holy ghost praise jig. He look at me sternly and said, Son you remember this. You must remember what I'm about to reveal and tell you. He said. IT IS GOING TO GET A WHOLE LOT WORSE BEFORE IT GETS BETTER. But you will recover. The victory will be manifested. Just don't let Satan's trick cause you to lose faith and cause you to fear and doubt as to throw in the towel of your hope in God..
........Well things went just as that preaching, praying man told me. Things just kept getting worse and worse about that situation. I cried but I said Lord in my tears I will trust the Lord. What time I am afraid I will trust in the Lord...Then about the thirtieth day after the preachers prayer, the miracle happened. I mean in one day, when the day right before the great calm the storm of my issue peaked at an all time ferocious high and looks all hopeless, the very next day the healing and the mending came. God turned my situation around and that raging storm became a most beautiful calm.
...........I will never forget that believing preachers prayer, nor what he told me that day, and how it came to be just as he fore told me. I learned a valuable truth that hour in my life. We have to believe God for needs, for things, for deliverance's even when the devil is screaming and talking viciously back to us saying leave us alone, your situation is hopeless and beyond repair. It is in those intensified heated moments in the good fight of faiths battles that we often times are wrestling with the deceiver and the schemes and powers of darkness and it is according to what our hearts do under that weight that brings us victories or defeats. And yet Jesus in His compassion and mercy upon us, when Peter was losing faith and began to sink, Peter cried out in fear unto the Lord and said, Lord Save Me and Jesus loving Peter reached forth his hand and saved the sinking Peter...But Jesus said concerning these type of things, He said, When I return, will I find faith on the earth. God expects from us all faith, trust, and a loving believing heart........deno.....share freely.

Jesus & The Spirit of God Without Measure.....deno......share freely.
.........The
bible tells us that Jesus had the Spirit and Presence of God His Father
given to him on this earth, in this world, without measure (John 3:34
KJV). Jesus and The Father that the angels cry unto in the higher glory
saying Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty, were living and walking and
ministering together as One on the earth in this world. In the natural,
the natural eyes were blind to the actual sight of the glory that Jesus
was full of each day by God without measure. Now Peter, James and John
on the mount of transfiguration saw that glory one day, but for one day
only. God opened their eyes in a vision to see that glory. God graced
and allowed them to see that higher glory when Jesus took them (those
3) a little further than the rest.
.........And there on that mount, Jesus was transfigured before their eyes and He and his clothes began to shine brighter than all white and light ever seen by men and they all were in the cloud of the presence and glory of God that was given to Jesus without measure. It was a fuller filled sight of the glory of God in and with Jesus that was with and upon THE WORD HIMSELF/ITSELF EVERYWHERE he went though it went unseen. Just because others did not see it in and shining from Jesus every day did not mean that the glory of God was not in and with and upon THE WORD every day FOR IT WAS. That invisible glory and presence of the Father was healing thousands and performing all kinds of miracles, signs, and wonders that no one had ever seen or done before. Friends always, everyday, Jesus who had the Spirit of the Lord WITHOUT MEASURE, the Power of the Lord to heal them all was ever present and with Jesus to do so and often times that power did..
.......Now All this the Lord had me to write so we would SEE THIS. He that was holy, He that is without sin, He that is pure light and full of eternal power and glory did something that I want you to see and God wants us to know for joy and for rejoicing sake if we really see its love and grace glory. It is found in Matthew 9:10,11) NKJV...verse 10) Now IT HAPPENED, as Jesus (whom the Spirit of God was in, with, and upon WITHOUT MEASURE) sat at a table in the house, and behold,(notice, recognize, see) MANY tax collectors and many sinners CAME and SAT DOWN with Jesus, sat down with Jesus, sat down with Jesus and with His disciples.
.........Friend those tax collectors and those sinners also were sitting down with and in the Presence of GOD the Father who was alive in Jesus thru His Spirit that He gave Jesus without measure though the physical eyes of the people could not naturally see HIM, nor the glory of God shining in, from and upon Jesus. But God graced Jesus' atmosphere so that the people in the presence and power and gory of God on earth would not die. They were not rebuked or resisted by the Spirit of the Holiest of all that was in, with, and all around Jesus. He sat down with them and they sat down with God and lived to tell about it and about Jesus the Son of God who was anointed with the Holy Ghost and Power.
.........The power of the Lord and His glory is always here with us even though we do not see it nor feel it although it is at times tangible to the heart and to the soul and to the touch and our eyes can be opened to see it as Peter, James, and Johns eyes were allowed to do so.. When peoples hearts really believe, the Spirit of the Lord sees that faith and melting love and or virtue/power flows from within Jesus into the believers, into the believing ones.
........So we conclude this light with this. Since God can sit with sinners on earth in welcoming fashion and in peace in the most hostile spiritual environment to the Spirit of the Lord that can be found in all creation (THIS WORLD WHERE SATAN IS EVERYWHERE), we can be assured and confident of his love for us and of the peace that we have with him,being we believe and belong to Christ as his very own flesh and bone NOW SEATED with him even now IN THE SPIRIT in heavenly places. For since on this earth SINNERS and the despised TAX COLLECTORS can sit with him at his table by invite in a peace gathering, surely WE who are Christ own flesh and bone can, HELLO, being that his flesh and bone bodily members are MADE BY GOD just as much a part of Jesus as he is of himself (By the Body Of Christ Love Connection) having EVEN the same peace with God as the One whose body THEY BELONG TO and whose flesh and bone THEY BE which is Christ and no others. (See Ephesians 5:28-32)....When your eyes are opened to what was just said, you will SEE THE LOVE GLORY OF THIS MESSAGE IN LIGHT.....deno.....share freely....Glory to God.

The Sins of the Kings of Israel......share freely.......deno.
But we want a king to be over us said the children of Israel. The prophet said to God, God they want a king over them like the other nations. God said, but I am their king. I know that said the prophet, but they insist. You know how your people are? Well, even though having a king was not Gods best for them and what God originally wanted for Israel, He in His love and goodness gave in to their wish and granted them kings to rule over them. Yet the truth of the matter on the most part, those kings were mostly awful. How often in His love God has bowed and bent down to the will and needs of His sinful people lest they be broken?
Saul the first king, was stubborn and would not obey God faithfully and he tried to do things his way to many times and eventually God got so tired of Sauls heart that God tore the throne, the kingdom from Saul and his seed. Yet still, (note this) it was God that chose Saul to be the first king. Saul got his start as king of Israel, Saul was appointed and Anointed to be king by God Himself thru the prophet Samuel. God graced Saul for that honor and yet still Saul was terrible at obeying the Lord. Mens hearts have over the many generations, even the anointed ones, their hearts have been turned away from God. It is amazing in numbers. Like David, their hearts God sees and likes, but something later happens under temptations and they fall backwards. It is a common thing in the life and the history of many of Gods people, even of the best. The sins of the kings.
We have the Anointing. We can have the Lord with us, but even though God blesses us, ordains us, anoints us with His Spirit for the ministry or position or a throne of authority that He has called us unto, God will not over ride our own wills. If you want to preach the gospel and live in adultery and sin at the same time, you can actually do that. God honors every person choices good or bad, wise or unwise. But just like king Saul and David, your bad choices, your sins whatever they be will soon come back to see you with an ugly face attached to it called judgement, the spanking of the Lord. The measure of that judgement is up to God as he reads the heart of the transgressor.
God honors every man and woman's free will and freedom of choice. He has done so from the very beginning. He does the same to this day. That is why we must really will it and pray it that Gods will be done and not ours. But we have to ASK HIM to do that. Father, your will be done on earth even as it is in heaven. Seems like King Saul only wanted Gods will done mostly only when his stubborn will brought him trouble and pain. SOUND FAMILIAR ?
Then came David to be King. God selected David. God anointed David with the kings anointing. As a young man David thrilled the heart of God with his passion for God and for his courage and faith in the Name of the Lord and the covenant. So much so that God took David the shepherd boy, and placed him on the throne of Israel. God chose David also just like He did Saul. God appointed and Anointed David as king over Israel. But the calling, the positioning of David on the throne and that kings Anointing did not nullify Davids own independent will or human sinful passions. David sinned also against the righteous scepter of the throne, against God, against Uriah, against the Anointing.
David as Gods selected and anointed king over Israel committed adultery and murder. The blood of Uriah was on his hands. His sins, though God forgave David, those sins caused David tremendous problems within his dynasty and within his family. His sin may have topped Sauls in measure. God knows. The old covenants forgiveness measure did not always remove the Fathers paddle from the life of the transgressors.
David, though God forgave him, those sins consequences were like a sword and a thorn in his side and in his families life that seemed to refuse to leave. In the old covenant, sins could not be purged as they are in the new covenant. They had only the limited power of the blood of animals to intercede and to atone for their sins. In the new covenant we have the blood of God atoning for our sins. HUGE DIFFERENCE. BIG BIG DIFFERENCE. A more greater sacrifice has been offered for our sins. God became a Lamb in the man Christ Jesus and died for our transgressions. Nothing can compare to any of the power of God. Not to his Name. Not to His Words. Not to His Spirit, AND NOT TO HIS OWN BLOOD.
Well the selected, called, appointed, anointed David as king of Israel, he to sinned against God and the throne. God gives all of us the call, the selection, the appointing, the positioning, the anointing to reign in life as kings, Paul wrote so, but not all are because they do not know that they are kings in Christ, nor see that they are kings in Christ. Also because many of us who are so loved by God still let our own wills rule us and our life and not Gods will. Every morning people plan their day out without even consulting God about it and they give God the leftovers. Well that sure did not work for the kings of Israel and I assure you that same way, that same attitude will not bring the favor and the blessings of the Lord into our lives and days. The double minded James said, should not think that they shall receive anything from the Lord. The church and the individual believers are weak and so often so powerless because their double mindness is robbing them of victory, of blessings, of favor and joy, and Christ in their life realities (James 1:5-8).
Then after David came Solomon, David and Bathshebas second child together. They lost the first child from the adultery conception. Solomon was their second child together. God appeared to Solomon in a dream and personally asked Solomon, What would you have Me do for you Solomon? Solomon started out with God, pleasing God with what he asked of the Lord. He asked for wisdom and knowledge to rule the people of Israel wisely as their king. God was well pleased with Solomon and with what he asked him. God said to him, Solomon you could have asked Me for riches, for wealth, for gold and silver but instead you asked for wisdom to lead and to rule My People and so for this I will grant you what you have asked. Solomon by My gift to you you shall excel in wisdom and knowledge as a king and no other king shall ever be able to be compared to your wit and wisdom and with this also I am going to make you the wealthiest king ever. All the days of your life shall be blessed with these gifts and blessings and no other king before you or after you shall be arrayed with such glory as the glory of Solomon.
It is absolutely amazing what this Word that God spoke into Solomon and into his life as king of Israel accomplished. That Word entered into Solomon and entered into others and into all the fields, fruits, animals etc. and other things in Israel and into people from other nations and that Word in them, not them but THAT SPOKEN WORD FROM THE MOUTH OF THE GOD THAT CANNOT LIE WHOSE WORD CANNOT FAIL working in them caused exceeding great and glorious things to be found and to be accomplished in Solomons life and reign as the king of Israel. It (That Spoken Word of God into Solomon and His life as king of Israel) even seemed to enter into the earth itself for its finest treasures and storages of gold and silver to open up and yield their glory and splendor into the life of King Solomon. For all the years of Solomons life, during the times he pleased God and even during the times that Solomon sinned, and he sinned greatly, even like no other king, that Word that God spoke into Solomon and into his life prevailed and did not cease or fail despite the good or the evil that Solomon committed. As long as Solomon lived that promise that God spoke into the life of Solomon new no breaks. They were only dissolved after Solomon returned unto the dust.
Oh the things that one could write about Solomon and all the kings of Israel to the present us, and when I think of God and how truly sweet, wonderful, and great He is and how He is so good and how He so loves, and yet despite all His goodness and all He does for us, His creatures, from the beginning, we all have shown Him such contempt, dishonor and disrespect. We have sinned against 100% goodness and 100% love from the first two to the present us and all those in between.
Oh God our God and Savior You have been so kind and gracious to us thru-out all the generations. When we deserved wrath instead so many time undeservingly You showed us mercy. But it was Your love that caused mercy to triumph over wrath and your grace to triumph over our sins just as the Word you spoke into Solomons life. That Words goodness, strengths, power, and kindness that You spoke into Solomons life prevailed and triumphed even over all the sins of Solomon and still blessed him according to the full measure of the blessing that you spoke into his life despite all his manifold sins, transgressions, and despite all he said and did contrary to the Holiness of God. God that is also the glory of the love of God in the gospel grace promises that You have Sworn unto and into all of us who believe and belong to Christ. That is the power of even the gospel and grace given us in Jesus Christ. For by grace we have been blessed with salvation thru faith, and that not according to ourselves, it is Gods promise, Gods gift that He has spoken and Sworn in His love into the soul of all of us that believe, It is not of our works and doings, but according to His grace He has saved us. He has Sworn in His Love the everlasting promise of salvation to all who believe and belong to Jesus Christ, by the blood of His Cross. And that Word of God that He has spoken into us in Christ Jesus unto salvation is greater than the Promise and greater than the power of the Words that He spoke into Solomon, which promise prospered in Solomon all the days of his life thru the good and thru the bad, thru the right deeds and even thru all his many terrible sins.....Thank You God for all that You have spoken and Sworn in Your great love for us in Christ Jesus. Amen.....deno.....share freely.

David sinned also against the righteous scepter of the throne, against God, against Uriah, against the Anointing.
David as Gods selected and anointed king over Israel committed adultery and murder. The blood of Uriah was on his hands. His sins, though God forgave David, those sins caused David tremendous problems within his dynasty and within his family. His sin may have topped Sauls in measure. God knows. The old covenants forgiveness measure did not always remove the Fathers paddle from the life of the transgressors.
David, though God forgave him, those sins consequences were like a sword and a thorn in his side and in his families life that seemed to refuse to leave. In the old covenant, sins could not be purged as they are in the new covenant. They had only the limited power of the blood of animals to intercede and to atone for their sins. In the new covenant we have the blood of God atoning for our sins. HUGE DIFFERENCE. BIG BIG DIFFERENCE. A more greater sacrifice has been offered for our sins. God became a Lamb in the man Christ Jesus and died for our transgressions. Nothing can compare to any of the power of God. Not to his Name. Not to His Words. Not to His Spirit, AND NOT TO HIS OWN BLOOD.
Well the selected, called, appointed, anointed David as king of Israel, he to sinned against God and the throne. God gives all of us the call, the selection, the appointing, the positioning, the anointing to reign in life as kings, Paul wrote so, but not all are because they do not know that they are kings in Christ, nor see that they are kings in Christ. Also because many of us who are so loved by God still let our own wills rule us and our life and not Gods will. Every morning people plan their day out without even consulting God about it and they give God the leftovers. Well that sure did not work for the kings of Israel and I assure you that same way, that same attitude will not bring the favor and the blessings of the Lord into our lives and days. The double minded James said, should not think that they shall receive anything from the Lord. The church and the individual believers are weak and so often so powerless because their double mindness is robbing them of victory, of blessings, of favor and joy, and Christ in their life realities (James 1:5-8).
Then after David came Solomon, David and Bathshebas second child together. They lost the first child from the adultery conception. Solomon was their second child together. God appeared to Solomon in a dream and personally asked Solomon, What would you have Me do for you Solomon? Solomon started out with God, pleasing God with what he asked of the Lord. He asked for wisdom and knowledge to rule the people of Israel wisely as their king. God was well pleased with Solomon and with what he asked him. God said to him, Solomon you could have asked Me for riches, for wealth, for gold and silver but instead you asked for wisdom to lead and to rule My People and so for this I will grant you what you have asked. Solomon by My gift to you you shall excel in wisdom and knowledge as a king and no other king shall ever be able to be compared to your wit and wisdom and with this also I am going to make you the wealthiest king ever. All the days of your life shall be blessed with these gifts and blessings and no other king before you or after you shall be arrayed with such glory as the glory of Solomon.
It is absolutely amazing what this Word that God spoke into Solomon and into his life as king of Israel accomplished. That Word entered into Solomon and entered into others and into all the fields, fruits, animals etc. and other things in Israel and into people from other nations and that Word in them, not them but THAT SPOKEN WORD FROM THE MOUTH OF THE GOD THAT CANNOT LIE WHOSE WORD CANNOT FAIL working in them caused exceeding great and glorious things to be found and to be accomplished in Solomons life and reign as the king of Israel. It (That Spoken Word of God into Solomon and His life as king of Israel) even seemed to enter into the earth itself for its finest treasures and storages of gold and silver to open up and yield their glory and splendor into the life of King Solomon. For all the years of Solomons life, during the times he pleased God and even during the times that Solomon sinned, and he sinned greatly, even like no other king, that Word that God spoke into Solomon and into his life prevailed and did not cease or fail despite the good or the evil that Solomon committed. As long as Solomon lived that promise that God spoke into the life of Solomon new no breaks. They were only dissolved after Solomon returned unto the dust.
Oh the things that one could write about Solomon and all the kings of Israel to the present us, and when I think of God and how truly sweet, wonderful, and great He is and how He is so good and how He so loves, and yet despite all His goodness and all He does for us, His creatures, from the beginning, we all have shown Him such contempt, dishonor and disrespect. We have sinned against 100% goodness and 100% love from the first two to the present us and all those in between.
Oh God our God and Savior You have been so kind and gracious to us thru-out all the generations. When we deserved wrath instead so many time undeservingly You showed us mercy. But it was Your love that caused mercy to triumph over wrath and your grace to triumph over our sins just as the Word you spoke into Solomons life. That Words goodness, strengths, power, and kindness that You spoke into Solomons life prevailed and triumphed even over all the sins of Solomon and still blessed him according to the full measure of the blessing that you spoke into his life despite all his manifold sins, transgressions, and despite all he said and did contrary to the Holiness of God. God that is also the glory of the love of God in the gospel grace promises that You have Sworn unto and into all of us who believe and belong to Christ. That is the power of even the gospel and grace given us in Jesus Christ. For by grace we have been blessed with salvation thru faith, and that not according to ourselves, it is Gods promise, Gods gift that He has spoken and Sworn in His love into the soul of all of us that believe, It is not of our works and doings, but according to His grace He has saved us. He has Sworn in His Love the everlasting promise of salvation to all who believe and belong to Jesus Christ, by the blood of His Cross. And that Word of God that He has spoken into us in Christ Jesus unto salvation is greater than the Promise and greater than the power of the Words that He spoke into Solomon, which promise prospered in Solomon all the days of his life thru the good and thru the bad, thru the right deeds and even thru all his many terrible sins.....Thank You God for all that You have spoken and Sworn in Your great love for us in Christ Jesus. Amen.....deno.....share freely.
By Grace Moses Went From Riding In A Basket To A Sea Splitter........deno.....share freely.
Before Moses was in the Arms of the Almighty calling down fire and hail from heaven and splitting Seas apart with God who was his constant glory, he was in his beginning in the basket floating to the discovery of His Grace and His High Calling from the God that separated him from his mothers womb. It was 80 years from his days in that basket before he saw the Burnish Bush. Eighty years from layer upon layer of life and grace until he discovered what before was to him a strange presence with him in a hidden mystery from the days in that basket. Gods greatest servants often times have the most humble beginnings, but such God filled endings with grace and mercy filling up the in betweens until they apprehend that which they were apprehended by God for.....deno......share freely.
Before and After Sayings That Leads To Faith & Hope......deno.....share freely.
Before there was something there was nothing, only God.
Before the soul can really rejoice in the plenty it first must taste the flavor of lack.
Before there was the Amazing Universe there was the void and the emptiness.
Before there was the great light there was the thickest darkness.
Before God thundered "Let there be light" there was the silence of darkness.
Before there was the saved there was the lost.
Before he rejoiced in sight, the blind man could not see.
Before Abraham was connected to the truth and to God, he was connected to the liar and his idols.
Before Moses was is the Arms of the Almighty calling down fire and hail from heaven and splitting Seas with God who was his constant glory, he was in the basket floating to the discovery of His Grace and His High Calling. Gods greatest servants mostly have the most humble beginnings, but such God filled endings.
Before Moses was walking on the Mountain of God his feet were first treading upon the desert of despair.
Before Moses cried his first "Thus saith the Lord," he said I cannot speak Lord.
Before Moses was used by God, he was first used by Pharaoh & Egypt.
Before Moses and God came together to set the captive free, the children of Israel were first taken captive by the Pharaoh of Satan.
Before Jesus cast out all those demons out of the mad man living in the grave yards, those devils fought back saying LEAVE US ALONE JESUS. They resisted but the still lost the battle. Jesus Won. We are to remember that. No matter the resistance, the demons are subject to us just as they were that day to Jesus in His Name.
Before David experienced the true love and mercy of God and wrote all those love songs of Gods mercy in the Psalms, David first sinned terribly.
Before Solomon learned to say that the most important duty to all men is to love God and to keep His Commandments, Solomon committed almost every sin in the book, even to the abomination of bowing his knee to idols and building those idols temples of worship even as he built Gods Great Temple. What happened to Solomon? Loose gentile women the bible says, turned Solomons heart away from God. God was furious with Solomon whom He gave all that wisdom and understanding to. In this we learn that incredible Wisdom and Understanding in themselves do not change whats really in the heart of man which is sin, nor does it change the pull that women have on the heart and flesh of men. Only the power that comes from the Cross of Jesus Christ and staying in constant prayer and true fellowship with Jesus can take away and overcome sin in the heart and in the record books. Solomon strayed from fellowship with the Lord. For years he preferred women above faithfulness to God. Wisdom and great education did not save him from this global problem and sin. Neither does is save this present generation from the constant repeating of this same sin. The world has gone wild in sexual sins, more that ever before just as scriptures fore told it would.
No one can no forgiveness unless they first know sin.
No one can really know what freedom is unless they first taste the bitterness of slavery.
What good is a solution without a challenge?
How can I know and rejoice in the sweet unless I have first tasted the bitter?
How can I experience a real answer from God if I do not first Ask Him directly in Prayer?
Israel would have never seen or known God to part Seas for salvation had they not first been backed in a corner.
How would we know that God meets all our needs if we never had a need, or if our cups are all full and overflowing. Even the rich and the wealthy Christians still have needs and still have day to day challenges. God does not let any of us that BELONG TO JESUS to stop using our faith even if our cups are all overflowing. For without faith no one can please God. He will have you giving by faith and believing for even greater things.
The way of the smooth and it's difference to what is rough is learned by the sole of the feet living life in this world, even by faith.
How can we know and experience the power of faith at work without a mountain in its target sight?
No man can really know the difference between what is good and what is evil in this blind world without the Spirit of the Lord and His divine intervention on earth. For to man its all the same and of the same and both are natural with one having the same right as the other. For this very reason evil marches today in America and the world for its rights and expression saying I AM NOT WRONG, NOR AM I ABNORMAL.
Before we were translated into the kingdom of Jesus Christ and light, we were first DELIEVERED from Satan and the power of darkness.
Your present now is for a greater tomorrow filled with grace. BELIEVE, JESUS SAID TO MARY AT THE TOMB OF HER DEAD BROTHER, BELIEVE AND YOU SHALL SEE THE GLORY OF GOD. SHE BELIEVED AND SHE SAW THE GLORY OF GOD TURNED HER TEARS INTO INCREDIBLE JOY AND REJOICING. You may be sowing in tears right now due to lack or things that seem hopeless and dead, but the bible says to believers that those who plant seeds in tears will sprout up crops of joy by faith in God. Let us together believe and we shall see the glory of God turn things around bringing something out of what seems nothing, plenty where there was lack, health where there was sickness, life where there was death, freedom where there was slavery and bondage, love where there was hate, unity where there was division, sweet where there was bitter, calms where there was storms, wet where there was dry, oasis where there was desert, light where there was darkness, faith where there was unbelief, truth where there was lies, assurance where there was before doubt, and Jesus where there used to be Satan in the hearts of people......deno....share freely.

Loves Glistening Message Of His Cross......deno......share freely.
The
great love we see in the Cross of Christ and in the Father given us His
Son; the great love that we see in the Father not withholding His Son,
and in Jesus himself showing us all his own great love for us in the
giving of himself for us, all that love sight seen in the Message of the
Cross and all of the love that it cries and shouts is set and is
preached so that when the real sight of that Message and of that great
love display, when it more deeply dawns on us, on
our understanding making its way deep into our hearts sight and
comprehending, we first then from that sight believe unto salvation
(Conversion), and then as we grow in the sight and in the knowledge of
what the Cross of Christ and its love message shows us and preaches on
that mountain top, the preaching of the Cross of Christ and the great
love displayed there, it will rise such faith in the heart when we
understand and see it properly that we come to see and come more and
more to believe and come to the obtaining of the faith sight and understanding that there is
nothing, not even one good thing that God will withhold from us or keep
from us, SEEING He did not even withhold from us His Highest, His Most
Valued Possession & Gift of His for our Ransom, Rescue, and
Redemption, His own sweetest and most Precious Son Jesus Christ; and He
did it when none of us, no not even one of us deserved it or were worthy
of such sacrificial devotion to us from the Son of God as we see in the
giving of himself for us in the Cross. Christ died for the UNGODLY.
Paul said in Romans that God sparred not His Son even though His Son under the pressure of the powers of darkness in the garden of his despair cried that he might be sparred from drinking that cup, the cup of the Cross, which also is called in the scriptures, the CUP OF BLESSING. JESUS DRANK THAT CUP and The Father and the Son together did all this when there was none righteous, none deserving, no not even one. He did it all, every single drop of the blood of His Cross because GOD SO LOVED even when all THE WORLD so hated. It is written, And when all we like sheep had gone astray, every one of us to our own selfish self serving ways, the Lord laid on Jesus the iniquity of us all. The Lord laid on Jesus the blow that would bring us back home, and that reconciling blow is THE CROSS AND IT'S GLISTENING FOR GOD SO LOVE THE WORLD LIGHT AND MESSAGE....John wrote it perfectly in his epistle when he wrote. The glory of it all is this, It was not done because we loved God, but because God so loved us despite us....That my friends is amazing grace and amazing love. That my friends is the glistening light of the MESSAGE OF THE CROSS....deno.....share freely.
