The greatest member of the covenant between God and Abraham was
GOD HIMSELF and God was so committed and so true to that covenant that
He Himself laid down HIS LIFE thru the blood of the Cross to save those
(THE WEAKER VESSELS) who were in that first covenant of circumcision
of all their COVENANT TRANSGRESSIONS. THAT IS REAL COVENANT COMMITMENT.
All sin has its root in covenant transgressions. There is no way around
this truth. This is also why the bible calls Jesus, THE
FAITHFUL AND TRUE ONE. His cross was from top to bottom and from east to
west, all its purpose and coverage A COVENANT SACRIFICE. Like a husband
in marital covenant with his wife, he so loves her (His People, The Church) with all truth,
honesty, and faithfulness that she being the weaker vessel, he marries
her in the SACRED HOLY UNTO GOD COVENANT COMMITMENT of marriage to be for her STRENGTH,
SHIELD, & BLESSING as TWO THAT HAVE BECOME ONE FLESH & ONE SPIRIT and the covenant commitment is so
real and so strong that if it takes LAYING DOWN HIS LIFE to bless her
and to save her he does, EVEN IF AND EVEN THOUGH SHE IS UNFAITHFUL TO HIM in the holy
covenant of marriage. That is real love my friends from hearts of the
HIGHEST FORM OF TRUE LOVE AND OF TRUE COVENANT HONOR. Not this evil love of this
generation that flees as soon as feelings change, or as soon as trouble
comes, or a strange wolf lurks around the house, or a seemingly better opportunity presents itself in tempting you. True covenant keepers exalt covenant commitment far
higher than carnal appetites and lust filled feelings. They live and they operate WAY MORE from the
heart and from the spirit than from the sinful flesh. They are strong in spirit. They are strong in discipline of the flesh and its sensual, unstable, wavering senses. Paul wrote, in the last
days the people will be COVENANT BREAKERS serving their lust above their
vows and above their integrity. He was so right on. The marital VOW has
become so unsacred to the present heart of America as well as many
other covenant ties. The Cross of Christ is (IN PART) the Husband of the first covenant laying down HIS LIFE for the sins, the covenant transgressions of HIS UNFAITHFUL WIFE (Israel). They took off the sacred ring and they cast off the sacred vow and in their casting Him Off he was found by the Gentiles, but still yet Jesus laid down HIS LIFE for the covenant transgressions of His wife Israel. ALL THIS GOOD, THE GOOD SHEPHERD WHO
GIVES HIS LIVE FOR THE SHEEP, HE DOES FROM COVENANT COMMITMENT. All
this he does because He is truly GOOD. But wolves are covenant
transgressors serving lust above covenant commitments. Love, Gods love
is not so much a feeling as it is a COVENANT UPKEEP, IT IS KEEPING COVENANT. IT IS
KEEPING YOUR WORD AND VOWS EVEN TO YOUR OWN HURT. IT IS COVENANT FAITHFULNESS. Gods Love is a
path of HONOR and INTEGRITY. You do not break your vow or your swearing,
or your commitment no matter what. Feelings may change, emotions may change but to you the COVENANT VOW STANDS and is EXALTED ABOVE ALL FEELINGS SUGGESTIONS AND EMOTIONS ANIMALISTIC VOICES. Even if YOUR OWN WORDS, YOUR OWN
SWEARINGS, YOUR OWN VOWS CAUSES YOU TO LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE SO THAT YOUR
VOWS BE NOT BROKEN, YOU ARE SO COMMITTED TO THE VOW, TO THE COVENANT YOU WILL DO
IT. That is in part, a great part of the root of the Cross of Christ.
This is the TRUE COVENANT LOVE and heart of Jesus Christ. This my blood is the blood of the NEW COVENANT, JESUS SAID. We all
could use a higher education about COVENANTS and their Power and
Influence. Covenants are the way God does all His business with the
present man. WITHOUT being connected to God in a COVENANT CONNECTION, we
are then in no way connected to God. Jesus said of his own blood, THIS
IS THE BLOOD OF THE NEW COVENANT WHICH I SHED FOR MANY.......Go and read
Ephesians 2:11-13. It reveals to us all that without Covenant
Connection to God we are without hope and without God..... Thank God
Jesus is the mediator of the NEW COVENANT that God established upon
better promises than the old one. It is written in the red spiritual
ink of Christ blood that speaks to us BETTER COVENANT THINGS than the
old covenants blood of animals that were mostly bound to carnal physical limits. But Christ blood takes us into heaven itself and into Oneness of Spirit with the Lord Himself our glory......deno......share freely.
Revelations 12:7) And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels (angels of the Lords army) fought against the dragon (the devil), and the dragon (the devil) fought and his angels (evil spirits) 8) And the devil lost the war though it was fierce for a while, neither was their place found anymore in heaven (they were cast out).....The next thing we notice is that Satan (the devil) was cast out of heaven to the earth and then we read in Revelations 12:13.17 that the devil makes war with the Jews and the Christians....it reads) vs 13) And the devil persecuted the women (the Womb of Mary and of Israel) who gave birth to the Christ, vs 17) And the dragon (the devil) was enraged at the woman (who gave birth to the Christ on earth) and he went to make war against her offspring which keep the commandments of God and against those who believe and follow Jesus Christ (the Church). Now lets back up and read Revelations 12:9-12) All these scriptures above and the ones we are about to read below help explain and help clarify to us all this AntiJesus activity going on in America and in other nations today. Revelations 12:9-12) And the dragon (the devil) after losing the war he waged against God in heaven, he was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan which deceives the whole world; he was cast out into the earth, and his evil spirits were cast out also with him ( these are the spirits we wrestle with as told in Ephesians 6:10-18). Revelations 12:10) And then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation and the kingdom of our God, and of THE POWER OF HIS CHRIST; for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before God day and night. 11) And they (THE ACCUSED ONES) overcame him by THE BLOOD of the LAMB, and by the confession of their faith in the Christ, and they stayed faithful and true to Jesus even unto their death. 12) Therefore rejoice (let there be a joyful celebration in the heart) by the saints and the angels in heaven, and by the people (the Christians) that dwell on the earth. There is always a great feeling when victory is won over the devil whether a personal triumph or a group triumph. But we must always be wise to the second round of the battle. As it is written, And left the devil left Jesus to return later. (Now after that celebration comes another warfare warred against the church. A storm of persecution rises against the Jews and the Christians on the earth). vs 12).....Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you FEAR FILLED, IN PANIC, and IS VERY ANGRY, because he knows that he has only a short time left. (short time left before his burn in the fire of the wrath of the Lord against him). Satan right now is in panic mode. He is feeling the anxiety and the stress and pressure of the fact that he can tell that he only has a short time left before the Angel comes and imprisons him within the torments prepared for him due to his rebellion against 100% True Love and against 100% Unselfishness- against God. This is the main reason for all this hostility in America in the present hour of the conflict that has risen against the Name and faith of Jesus Christ. It is alarming how America (the saints here) does not understand the deep depths of Satan inside this nation at this hour from the top down though the devils pack and their works are masqueraded every where, being very obvious, and even with all in your face boldness. There is satanical stealth going on all over this nation to crack, remove, and to break apart the spiritual foundations and the pillars of Christ and of Christianity in this country that America was founded upon and that has been the strength of our nation for a hundreds of years. If Satan can bring down Christianity in America where the light of the faith of the Son of God has been the brightest that the world has ever know since the resurrection of Jesus Christ, if he can prevail here, the negative domino effect of that will strike all the nations of the world and they will scream for GIGANTIC HELP....Guess who shows up them? You got it, THE ANTICHRIST HIMSELF..... Pray in Jesus Name Always. Pray in Jesus Name for the Peace of Jerusalem and Pray for America that we resist the devil to the degree that he loses here as he did in heaven. Our nation can still be GOD FAVORED if we cast the devil out as God did in heaven. Jesus said, take My Name and in My Name cast the devil out. The Lords name is the only name that can stop the devil in his tracks and cast him out. That is the core reason why all this hostility against the use of the NAME OF JESUS CHRIST in present America. Political correctness is substance of AntiChrist weaponry and material. But friends, VICTORY over the devil will not happen by a whisper or the way of sugary sweet Christianity that has no real courage. We must become mighty men and women of valor in the Spirit and in the natural, strong in faith, strong in the Lord and in the power of His Name, Might and Strengths that the devil is no match for. We must be believers that are believing and that know our God and we do exploits in HIS NAME. Remember in our scriptures that a war, a conflict, ca major battle broke out in heaven, in the spiritual heavenly places of God. We are going to have to become spiritual warfare intense in the Spirit, in prayer and in our onward march in Christ Jesus. If we do, then while the devil is in severe panic on the earth, WE AS STRONG CHRISTIANS ARE IN SEVERE HAPPINESS AND REJOICING for the Joy of the Lord is our strength and we know that our great redemption draweth nigh. Resist the devil (correctly) and he will flee from you is an unbreakable scripture. Gods truth and integrity backs it. And Jesus said, But when the Son of Man returns, will He find faith on the earth? Ephesians 6:16 tells us that FAITH will quench every attack and work of the devil no matter how fiery or enraged it is...Jesus Is Lord. Do everything in HIS NAME PAUL SAID..Paul understood why.....deno......share....freely.
As God stilled those hungry lions for Daniel in the lions den to where
they did him no harm, even so likewise Jesus, thru the blood of His
Cross, stills the wrath of God from getting to those of us who believe
and have set our love upon him. Thru the blood of His Cross and thru the power of our Lords resurrection, we can say in faith with confidence, IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL. Even as it is written, Jesus gave himself for us to deliver us from this present evil world and he has saved us from the wrath to come......deno......share freely.
Isaiah the fore telling prophet, fore seeing by the Spirit of the Lord the Cross of Christ, it's purposes, and the peoples reactions to their visitation from the Lord, he wrote, "All we like sheep have GONE ASTRAY, each one of us following our on dreams, and the Lord hath laid on Jesus the blow to bring us back (Isaiah chapters 53,54). He also wrote, We thought that Jesus was stricken by God for blaspheme because He said He was the Son of God, but oh the opposite was the real truth. He was stricken and wounded for OUR SINS & INIQUITIES. For the transgressions of His people Christ was stricken and crucified, nor for himself. For concerning Himself He never sinned one transgression. Holy is His Name and so matching that Name is to all His record. Even as the people themselves testified of Jesus saying, This man doeth all things well. Jesus sinned not. But all of us Isaiah said went away from the Lord, and most of us and Israel had left the Lord by deceptions, or by our own choice having loved this present world, fleeing from the presence and grace of the Lord. Then Isaiah said the GRACE OF GOD GOOD NEWS, he wrote, "and the Lord laid on Jesus this iniquity of us all."(THE RECONCILING BLOW). By the cross God planned to win us back and to bring us back as we recognize the great love that the Cross of Christ magnifies to us from heaven, from the throne of God. I came down from heaven Jesus said, to do My Fathers Will...THE CROSS.....And concerning the the Cross of Christ, Christ went from His Throne in glory to the Cross on earth all because GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, every man and woman, every boy and girl....John 3:16-17. In the day of Israels face to face visitation from the Lord of heaven, Jesus found that many of the children of Israel had left the way of the Lord. Their hearts were FAR FROM HIM although they were ROBED IN RELIGION & IN RELIGIOUS TRADITIONS filled with man made up oracles that had become MORE ESTEEMED by elders of Israel more than the actual Word of the Lord. They were so far off the correct PATH that they were blind from their pulpits down. They were so lost and so far gone astray that Jesus testified to this fact, as He called them the lost sheep of the house of Israel, having elders who are blind making them all fall into the ditch for their lack of needful sight. They were so far away from the Lord that even when the Lord himself was right in their midst visiting them face to face with Power and healings and miracles that no other man ever did, that the scripture records their response, "He came unto His own but His own did not receive Him." Like Jesus said to the woman of Samaria, "Woman if you only knew who it was that was speaking to you." And to others He cried, Behold a greater One than Solomon is here." And in John He said, I am not of this world for I came down from heaven. These words they chewed on but spat out. What did they end up doing to their Lord that had come to visit them as the scriptures fore told he would and to do them good? They mocked and scoffed at him and they crucified him with hammer and nails upon that Cross and they beat and whipped Him with rods and with the whips of their rejection from their blindness that had been formed by Satan within them (John 8:44). And what was Gods response to them for nailing His Son to the Cross and for laying the Lord (His Son) aside to follow vanities in blindness? Well in the midst of the fiery darts that they shot at Him from their rejection, one day the Lord rose up as like unto His glorious rising as the King of kings upon heavens throne positioned on earth and made THE KINGS DECREE. He said to them face to face, Behold Oh Israel, fasten your attention on these words for YOUR HOUSE is now left you desolate. In other words empty of the Lords presence. Shortly thereafter the curtain of the old covenant He tore in twain from top to bottom, which also IN PART signifying that God was tearing up HIS OLD CONTRACT WITH THEM, like unto how the kingdom was torn away from king Saul and given unto another and only a remnant in Israel was to this day called THE FOUND OF THE LORD, but the Gentiles found Him mightily and His grace was multiplied to all the other nations of the earth, even to this day. But is there hope for Israel WHO CRUCIFIED THE LORD IN UNBELIEF? Is there hope for any people, who even were cut off from the Lord and grace and struck with such wrath that their lives were disassembled, their safety net removed, and their security rattled to the core because of their sins and unbelief? For behold oh Israel the Lord said, Your house is now left you desolate, meaning empty of the Lord. And you shall not see me again, not until you cry, blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord. Well the answer is in those words. Yes there is hope for people, if they will return unto Him and Cry about Jesus, Blessed is Jesus who came to us in the Name of the Lord. And if they or any of us that left the Lord for the world, for the pleasure of sins and of vanity, or from being deceived, if we come to our senses and Gods senses and cry those words unto the Lord from the heart, HOW CLOSE can we come back unto Him after all that embarrassing ugly and pig like mess our foolishness and turning away from the Lord got ourselves into? How will He treat us? Will He say to us, NO? Will He say to us, Come this close but no further? Would the Lord draw a line like that? We learn from the scriptures that HE WOULD NOT DRAW SUCH A LINE. Praise be to God. We learn that He would not but would show amazing grace and love upon that soul. In Luke 15:11-31, vs 19-20 Jesus taught about the foolish son of a great father. He taught that that son seemed to have an itch for sin and for thing of the flesh, and for the world. That son having that itch, we he got to the heart place that he just had to have that itch scrateched. That son took his inheritance, he left his fathers great house, and lost it all thru wild, unrestrained, unwise, and irresponsible living, Well after loosing it all, having no more food or comforts above a pigs style life style, such broke he and his hard headiness down and he cried wanting to return home. He takes off on his journey home, which is every time folks, the journey of the heart and not so much the feet. Coming back home from being before FAR FROM GOD, his Great Father sees him and takes off RUNNING to His Son with NO LINES DRAWN to the embrace or to the measure of the return unto God. Jesus said, that the Father (God) sees the heart of His lost son returning to Him and the Lord takes off RUNNING, he takes off RUNNING TO His child and even PUTS HIS LOVING ARMS AROUND HIM and kisses his child on the cheek and pours out all His love UPON HIS RETURNED SON in the form of all HIS BEST and honors His son or daughter that has returned home to Him from FAR AWAY DISTANCES in HIS BIGGEST AND BEST GRACE FILLED WAY. For He that went to the Cross for this son, well His feet hurt no more. He runs to show us HIS LOVE IN FULL LOVE OF GOD STRIDE. Friends our God and Savior is SO GOOD. Also we find in Zechariah 10:1-12 Gods response to the house of Judah, and the house of Joseph who had become the house of desolation, empty of the Lord because THEY HAD CAST HIM OFF. He said in verse 6). The Lord Himself Speaking said, And I will strengthen Judah, and I will SAVE the house of Joseph, and I will bring them again (THE RECONCILIATION) TO THIS POSITION & PLACE THEM AGAIN in My Vineyard. For I will HAVE MERCY upon them; this mercy shall be SO GREAT that before Me they and things between us SHALL BE AS THOUGH THEY NEVER WENT ASTRAY, AND AS IF THEY WERE NEVER CAST OFF FROM ME WHEN I REBUKED THEM IN MY ANGER AGAINST THEM BECAUSE OF THEIR SINS AND UNBELIEF. FOR I AM THE LORD, and I will hear the cry of their hearts and I WILL HAVE MERCY. I so like that. God is able AND WILLING and WANTS all PEOPLE that are far from Him and that have GONE ASTRAY to cry unto Him. He wants them to Call upon His Name saying BLESSED IS JESUS WHO CAME TO US IN THE NAME OF THE LORD. He want us to return unto Him with our hearts, no matter whether we are sitting on the pews of the sanctuary, or on the bar stools in Sin & Satans play grounds. He wants our hearts to come home, for it is not what the lips always say that honors the Lord, and IT IS NOT the place or location of a persons body; BUT WITH GOD THE TRUE TRUTH OF EVERY MAN IS ALL ABOUT THE HEART and the heart of every man GOD READS PERFECTLY. He wants us all to RETURN to HIM with all our hearts, with all our hearts whether broken, shattered, wounded, or that has even suffered in the past a faith heart attack, so that He can show us His love, and pour out His GRACE & KINDNESS upon us and honor us as though we never had gone astray as written in Zechariah 10:6, and in the story of the prodigal son that Jesus taught us. Folks, truly God is Love and God is a good and gracious to all that call upon His Name the Name of Jesus Christ..Just like He promised us in Isaiah 55:6-7) vs 6) Seek the Lord while He may be found, CALL UPON HIM while He is near. vs7) Let the wicked forsake his ways, and the unrighteous man his thoughts of to do evil, and let him RETURN unto the LORD, and THE LORD WILL HAVE MERCY UPON HIM, and LET US RETURN UNTO OUR GOD, for He will ABUNDANTLY PARDON US......Jesus Is Lord......Amen.....please share freely with someone you love and that may need these restoring words. God Bless You in Jesus Name.....deno.
