Big Faith Blessed Assurance........deno......share freely.
When Christ was on earth in the power of the Spirit of the Lord, some people believed big, some believed a little. Those that believed big hit healing home runs, miracle home runs, tax paying financial home runs, needs met home runs, big catches, big profits, even resurrection home runs, and made the book called the bible. Others who believed little or doubted much seldom received unless Jesus had compassion on them. But it is very evident to us all that we cannot always in all situations count solely on the Lords compassion concerning our needs or situations. There comes a time when the Father expects the new born to start crawling, then advance to walking. Then the time comes where God wants us to become strong in faith to run our race before the world believing strongly on the name of Jesus Christ His Son thru the work of faith with power and confidence. But even greater than faith and hope is unwavering unquenchable ever enduring love......deno.
For Many This Is NEEDED BREAD.......deno......share freely.
Have you ever noticed how you can always extend love and kindness to some people but all they do is return rudeness and even out right hate in return? Well find comfort in this. That is what Jesus went thru almost everyday when he was on earth...You can endure thru Him.
Jesus said, Marvel not when people/the world, hate you.....In this hour we live in people will love us who really believe and belong to Jesus and people will extremely hate us for believing and for belonging to Christ....There is no way around these words. Forgive All.
Jesus said, If you come to the altar to offer your gift or to pray and you have something against your brother, leave the gift, be reconciled to your brother (Forgive and live that forgiveness) then come and pray and offer your gift to the Lord. Some are refusing to obey these words for pride and evil sake. This itself is hindering their prayers and the blessings of the Lord.
Now I know they hurt you, offended you. But look unto Jesus in this. Look at him on the cross rejected, talked about, hurt, abused, despised, betrayed, full of wounds, beaten, whipped, crucified, and ripped to shreds. With all that hatred poured into him by a madness of the people, Jesus said in all that pain from the cross, Father forgive them.
2 Timothy 2:24-26Authorized (King James) Version (AKJV)
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 and that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will......Kick Satan out of your life and affairs. Forgive all. Love, Mercy, Compassion, Peace. That your prayers be not hindered.....

Having therefore brethren BOLDNESS to ENTER into the Holiest thru the blood of Christ.......deno......share freely.
Once a year the high priest was called by God to enter behind the veil that was in the temple in the earthen holy of holies on behalf of himself and for the people of Israel. This entrance was a shadow of Christ walking to the Cross and being raised from the dead and ascending back into heaven itself for us as our eternal REDEEMER AND ETERNAL REDEMPTION (Hebrews 9:11-14). Jesus would later down the road after the blood of His Cross, he would enter back into the the glory of heaven itself (which is hidden behind the veil of the physical creation-see Hebrews 9:1-28). He would enter into heaven itself for us HAVING OBTAINED ETERNAL REDEMPTION to appear before God with His own blood so that the spirits, the heavenly things themselves (Hebrews 9:22-24) on earth in men and of those in the heavenly places could be purified and made newly alive as the REDEEMED of the Lord thru the power of His Own Precious Blood contact benefits applied. But the glory does not stop there.
Not only would Jesus ENTER into heaven itself for us having obtained eternal redemption. Not only would Jesus ENTER into the paradise of God in glory for us. Not only would Jesus ENTER into the power of God and sit with His Father again in the THRONE OF LIGHTNINGS AND THUNDEROUS POWERS that rumble in the Spirit of Elohim. But also by the power, the redeeming power of His own blood, "GET THIS", He that sits upon the mightiest, He that roars and rumbles His eternal Power in lightnings and in thunders of holiness perfections. On the day of Pentecost, He came down from heaven to earth and ENTERED into the hearts of those who were justified for HIS ENTRANCE thru faith in Christ Blood, Death, and Resurrection.
Brothers and sisters in Christ let us grasp this light. The MIGHTY GOD, the one who was in the shadow of the old way, who hid Himself behind the veil in the temple of Jerusalem, who would strike dead as with lighting any man, beast, or priest who entered behind the veil uninvited or without atoning blood, that same One came on the day of Pentecost like a rushing mighty wind to His people. The Holiest of all came running to His children like a loving Father finally reconciled back unto His child. Between them all wrath, all friction, all enmity and discord had been removed to make way for this INCREDIBLE HOLY ENTRANCE OF THE HOLIEST OF ALL INTO THE HEARTS OF THOSE BORN OF GOD WHO FIRST TRUSTED IN CHRIST (see Ephesians 1:12-14). He did not ENTER into their hearts by the power of their own human self righteousness, but He came in the power of Christ Name, Resurrection, and Atoning Sacrifice and Blood in Covenant Peace.
Christ blood and faith in Christ blood does far far more for us in entering things pertaining to God and eternal life and redemption than all our self righteousness under the law combined. The power of the Sacrifice of Himself tore the veil in two. It torn down all separating walls of division between us and God. Our deeds of the Law did not tear the veil into so that we could enter into God and He into us thru the Spirit. What Christ alone accomplished with His own sufferings and blood, did all this ENTERING glory FOR US....Read the following chapters from the book of Hebrews 9 & 10....deno.....share freely.
Hebrews 9 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
9 Then verily, the first covenant also had ordinances of divine service and a worldly sanctuary.
2 For there was a tabernacle made, the first, wherein was the candlestick and the table and the showbread, which is called the sanctuary.
3 And after the second veil was the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of All,
4 which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant;
5 and over it were the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercy seat, of which we cannot now speak particularly.
6 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service to God.
7 But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people,
8 the Holy Ghost by this signifying that the way into the Holiest of All was not yet made manifest so long as the first tabernacle was yet standing.
9 It was a figure for the time then present in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, which could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience,
10 since it concerned only meats and drinks and divers washings and carnal ordinances imposed on them until the time of reformation.
11 But Christ, having come a High Priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands (that is to say, not of this building),
12 neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood, He entered in once into the Holy Place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
13 For if sprinkling the unclean with the blood of bulls and goats and the ashes of a heifer sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh,
14 how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
15 And for this cause He is the Mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were covered under the first testament, those who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
17 For a testament is of force after men are dead, otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
18 And so not even the first testament was dedicated without blood.
19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book and all the people,
20 saying, “This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.”
21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.
22 And by the law almost all things are purged with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.
23 It was therefore necessary that the copies of things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24 For Christ has not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.
25 Nor yet should He offer Himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place with blood of others every year;
26 for then would He have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now once, in the end of the world, hath He appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the Judgment,
28 so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto those who look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin, unto salvation.

Hebrews 10 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
10 For the law, having a shadow of the good things to come and not the very image of those things, can never, with those sacrifices which they offered continually year by year, make those who come unto it perfect.
2 For then would not sacrifices have ceased to be offered? For worshipers once purged should have had no more consciousness of sins.
3 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year,
4 for it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.
5 Therefore when He cometh into the world, He saith, “Sacrifice and offering Thou wouldest not have, but a body hast Thou prepared for Me.
6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin Thou hast had no pleasure.
7 Then said I, ‘Lo, I come (in the volume of the Book it is written of Me) to do Thy will, O God.’”
8 Above when He said, “Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings, and offering for sin Thou wouldest not have, neither hadst pleasure therein” (which are offered in accordance with the law),
9 then said He, “Lo, I come to do Thy will, O God,” He taketh away the first, that He may establish the second.
10 By this will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering time and again the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.
12 But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down at the right hand of God,
13 from henceforth to wait until His enemies be made His footstool.
14 For by one offering He hath perfected for ever those who are sanctified.
15 Of this the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us; for after He had said before,
16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.”
18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
19 Having therefore boldness, brethren, to enter into the Holiest by the blood of Jesus,
20 by a new and living Way, which He hath consecrated for us through the veil (that is to say, His flesh),
21 and having a High Priest over the house of God,
22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.
23 Let us hold fast to the profession of our faith without wavering (for He is faithful who promised),
24 and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works,
25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as ye see the Day approaching.
26 For if we sin willfully after having received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
28 He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.
29 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath accounted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath despised the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know Him that hath said, “Vengeance belongeth unto Me; I will recompense,” saith the Lord. And again, “The Lord shall judge His people.”
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 But call to remembrance the former days in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions,
33 partly while ye were being made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions, and partly while ye became companions of those who were so used.
34 For ye had compassion on me in my bonds and took joyfully the despoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in Heaven a better and an enduring substance.
35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompense of reward.
36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
37 “For yet a little while, and He that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
38 Now the just shall live by faith; but if any man draw back, My soul shall have no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those who draw back unto perdition, but of those who believe, to the saving of the soul.
39 But we are not of those who draw back unto perdition, but of those who believe, to the saving of the soul.......share freely.

3 Years ago this month our Dad went to be with Jesus. This was my tribute to him. Dad was the most loving, most honest and honorable man I have ever known. In him was a gift. a grace of the Spirit of the Lord that since I was a child i always tasted it in our dad....Dad was deliciously special......Grace Man.......deno......
Why are you standing there in the SHADOW when you can be walking right now IN THE REALITIES OF CHRIST IN YOU HIMSELF ?.......deno......share freely.
After Adam under strong temptation chose the path of disobedience we see that God in love with His man moved into action into His plan to redeem man and reconcile Us back unto Himself. He moved into His recovery of the sight of the blinded, to save even to the uttermost that which was lost.
In Genesis 3:15 we get the first glimpse into the mystery of Christ. God said to Satan that old dragon/dinosaur the Serpent, I will put friction/enmity/hatred between your seed offspring and the womans seed,offspring (Christ from the miracle conception). You will strike him at the heel, but He will crush your head.
All the above that I wrote we did so to simply say this. From Genesis 3:15 to Noah, to Abraham, to Issac, to Moses and all the Law of the old covenant with all the writings of the prophets. ALL OF THEM, ALL OF THE LAWS COMMANDMENT'S CONTAINED IN ORDINANCES WITH ALL THEIR MULTIPLE BLOOD SHEDDING SACRIFICES INCLUDING THE PASSOVER LAMB and ALL THEIR WRITINGS were all together the SHADOWS of Jesus Christ. They were all the SHADOWS cast by Jesus our Lord as He was walking and making His way thru-out the ages to the day of the blood of His Cross IN THE ULTIMATE GREAT SACRIFICE OF HIMSELF for the putting away of sin and it's authority over the world. The Law and everything therein was all together the shadow of Jesus the Son of God as he was walking and making His way to the Cross. THAT LIGHT IS SO IMPORTANT.
SO WHY ARE YOU WALKING STILL IN THE SHADOW OF CHRIST when NOW WE CAN WALK IN HIM AND HE IN US THRU THE SPIRIT IN SPIRIT MIX GIVEN US IN THE NEW COVENANT ESTABLISHED UPON FAR GREATER RELATIONSHIP & BLESSING PROMISES ? PROMISES FAR GREATER THAN THOSE THAT WERE WRITTEN IN THE SHADOW.
THE SHADOW CAN NEVER BE GREATER THAN THE ONE WHO CAST THE SHADOW. Would you rather be married to the SHADOW of the one you love or to their Spirit and body-TO THE REAL THEM. Personally I want the real deal. I want Christ and more of Him daily. GRACE GRACE GRACE provides it.
The Law with all it's blood sacrifices was the Lords Shadow. Grace brings us into the realities of God in Christ into us and us into Him. The Law which was the shadow of Christ came to us by Moses, BUT GRACE AND TRUTH which was THE REAL DEAL came by Jesus Christ (John 1:17-18) (Read John 17 entire chapter.
None of us can hug the shadow of a man or woman. None of us can enjoy a true fellowship with just the shadow of a person. None of us can have a real conversation and love relationship with just a shadow. We need to lay holt on the one who is casting the Shadow for our cravings to be really satisfied. Look unto Jesus Christ. His is what all the Law and the old covenant was the shadow of. Turn to the Word that became flesh. Turn to Jesus Christ who became flesh and dwelt amongst us. In Jesus is and dwells all the Godhead bodily realities.
Why remain only in the shadow when you can have the Son of God in you Himself in a Lord in servant Father in son beautiful relationship fellowship right now on earth and for all eternity?....Amen.
P.S. The Law brought us all to the Cross of Christ. I have been crucified with Christ Paul wrote. The Cross of Christ brings us to the sacred holy place behind the before forbidden veil wherein we all by faith in Christ blood come unto God and God baptizes us with the Spirit of the Holiest of all. The one that the high priest feared behind that veil as he entered has now commanded you and I thru faith in His Sons blood to come boldly into His presence, unto the throne of Grace knowing and believing in the love He has for us in Christ. CHILD LIKE FAITH.....deno.....share freely.
