Mark 9:11)...And Jesus took Peter, James, and John to the mount and he was transfigured before them.
......Here we have the real Jesus who is the Lord from heaven by whom God made the worlds, showing his true Self (His Eternal Spirit). vs 3) Jesus begins to manifest His Eternal Self. He begins to shine as light, as light and white beyond all known white, beyond the brightness of glistening white snow. His body fades out of sight. His Eternal Spirit takes over the scene. The sight is glorious and in power. Peter, James, and John stand in the glory of this power and vision in striking awe..So struck with the awe of the glory Peter turns to worship...Most every time God has appeared to men in measures of His Spirits glory, those men have all hit the floor stricken with awe, wonder, and fear.
.......And yet none of us on earth has seen the fulness of His glory nor the full of the exceeding brightness of His glistening Self. For Revelations 4:5 gives us a further glimpse of God in His Glorious Power. John the apostle was allowed to see it in measure. From Gods eternal Spirit, lightning and thunderous thunders proceed forth from His Divine Life and Energies. The sight of God is also with great loudness...Look at the Universe, think of HIS POWER.....Jesus revealed HIS HEART.....Thank God He that is all powerful and Almighty IS LOVE...PERFECT LOVE & HOLY. The combination is PERFECT as to make His Name to be called Wonderful.....deno
......Many prophets did not see the fruits of their labors after much prophesying about the Christ to come. They went on into glory waiting for the descending of Christ. Many of us will not see all the fruits of our labors in Christ until our feet have actually landed on heavens eternal ground. We must not lose sight of this truth lest Satan frustrates and wearies us with false interpretations of premature obtaining's.
.......There are things prepared for us IN HEAVEN that only IN HEAVEN shall we possess them....In the mean while we keep pressing and we keep on laying up for ourselves treasures in heaven and we keep on walking by faith and not by sight...And what we do taste of God and of Grace and of His presence and favor in this life let us give thanks.
........And yet we say this...You will find Me saith the Lord to His people. You will find Me when you SEEK ME with all your heart..
........God promises each and everyone of us this great finding while our feet are still upon the earth. Who knows what REWARDS God has in store for those who diligently SEEK HIM.
........To find the Lord to the degree of what Jesus is saying in this scripture is A PECULIAR SPECIAL HANDS ON FINDING..It is like a most valuable TREASURE hidden in a field that one gives his all to dig for and find.
........This GREAT FINDING PROMISE God made unto HIS PEOPLE. In Him they (HIS PEOPLE) were living and In Him they were moving about and having their being but they had become a people NUMB TO HIS PRESENCE and MOVEMENTS and their vines empty of precious fruit and presence of God favors and blessings.....It was a mighty Presence of God finding and a mighty outpouring promise that He was making for them..In this great peculiar finding of God on earth by His People they would richly find out that the Taste of the Lord is so good, so delicious, so flavor filled that every thirst of soul would be met and fully satisfied and much more...For in Gods manifested presence is fulness of Joy and at His right hand pleasures (full satisfaction) forevermore....deno.
TRUMP NATION....
......Acts 18:9-10).......And Jesus said to Paul, fear not to preach and teach the gospel here Paul, for no one shall harm you. For I am with you and have MANY BELIEVERS in this city..
......Thank God for America where MANY BELIEVERS live...Lets pray for the number of Christians to INCREASE in our towns, cities, and nations...America is a safe haven for believers as long as our Constitution reigns and is defended and upheld...The spirit of AntiChrist is trying to take this liberty from this nation to force a submission to his desire...BELIEVERS WE MUST STAND TALL AND STRONG AS NEVER BEFORE FOR JESUS..
........AMERICA, FOUNDED BY BELIEVERS FOR BELIEVERS.....deno.
.......Jesus had an inner circle. In that inner circle of disciples he had a few really close ones that he confided in like on the Mount of Transfiguration. The bible says all his disciples were with him at the base of the mount. But then it says that Jesus chose 3 to go a little further with him than the rest. Those three got to see the REAL JESUS that was hidden behind the fleshes veil when He began to shine so brightly on the Mt. of transfiguration. They got to see the real Jesus that was from Everlasting to Everlasting..
......When we are specially chosen, get yourself willing and ready...Who knows how far up the grace ladder God plans to take us...Be ready and willing to go.....deno.
I want to tell you a story.
......In a certain church there were these women who took pride in not ever cutting their hair. Their hair on the bun was their sanctification trade mark and they took great pride in the hair bun pile up..Each Sunday they stacked their hair up upon their heads as high as they could as if in competition with the other sisters to see who would have their hair bun piled up the highest. Best friends they were and hair sanctification was their common ground.
......One day a woman of the world came into their church. She was very worldly in her tight fitting pants and attire and her face was all painted to allure. She was one of those that had been around in the sinful ways of the world. Yet this same woman was torn in her heart. Her sins had become heavy on her mind and her soul had become vexed from sins pleasures, sins deceit and abuse. She had no real peace. She was miserable within. She wanted freedom. Her heart was craving to be set free from her bondage of guilt and shame.
......During that church service her hungry heart heard the love of God preached in Christ. She heard the preacher preaching about the woman caught in adultery and how Jesus loved her and forgave her. She heard about the woman called Mary Magdalene who was a whorish woman whom Jesus forgave and saved. The words of that preacher became like a fire of light and love in her heart and soul. Jesus knew she was going to be in that service that day and he prepared that preacher of his to deliver his love message to that woman's longing heart. The lady was so touched in the warmth of Christ and His Love she began to cry and cry.
......It came time for the altar call. That wild looking woman took off running for the altar of God for she was running for the presence of the Lord. Jesus had SEEN HER FAITH and as soon as she got to the altar she fell down on the floor even speaking in other tongues as the Spirit of God gave her utterance. For 30 minutes this lady was in Gods other world called abounding grace.
.......After she came to from being filled with Christ and his love, those women of hair sanctification pride began to gossip about how she looked without and failed to see how she was now clothed with Christ within. She was now born of God and a NEW CREATURE in Christ Jesus. But those fair haired ladies did not seem to care about that. They judged everything by the external and nothing by the internal.
.......Well days turned into weeks and weeks into months and none of those fair haired ladies of hair sanctification pride still would not welcome that woman into their circle. They kept their distance from her all though Christ Himself had come and made his home in her heart to fellowship with her daily in grace and in love.
........Well this new believing woman became disturbed, bothered, and hurt by these ladies because she always felt them shunning her. What can i do she said to win their love? She went home crying. When she got home she looked at herself in the mirror and she saw her short glaring back at her and it dawned on her. I know what I will do. I will go buy a wig that looks like their hair does on Sunday and then they will accept me. She did just that. She went and bought a wig that looked like the Empire State Building all piled up upon her head.
......On the next Sunday she put that wig on and headed to church so excited to fit in with those sisterhood of hair sanctification. When she walked into the church sanctuary she noticed the hair sisterhood ladies looked at her with a quick glance and then quickly looked away. She was crushed. What am i doing wrong she said?. Then she looked down and noticed she was still wearing pants but they never did. So the next Sunday she came to church with the wig and in a dress and when she walked in those ladies of the sisterhood of hair sanctification all got up and highly complimented her and told her, now you can come sit with us. Your sanctified now unto salvation
.....Friends isn't it strange how we can be so filled with Christ Spirit into our hearts and so accepted by Jesus by faith but many religious people live by other rules and demand those rules and ways be upheld or they say we want be accepted or saved.
......I stand strong in the glorious liberty that we have in Christ and I refuse to be entangled with a yoke of religious looking bondage...Since Jesus the greatest of all accepted that woman and filled her heart with himself by her faith, who are we to undo that by the enforcement of a yoke that leads to a religious type bondage..?..Justified by grace thru faith we preach. We do not exalt any form of physical circumcision or hair pile up above Jesus Christ and him crucified and risen from the dead....Paul said, You that began in the spirit are you now only justified by the flesh?.
.....Note....Faith is made powerless and none effective by the guilt that comes from the religious bondage of carnal human rules enforced..Such rules do not increase faith nor faith confidence, and such rules rob us of peace and assurance..But those carnal ordinances and rules do increase doubt, unbelief, and an unhealthy unworthiness that robs faith and crushes blessed peace and assurance that yields forth JOY, the joy and peace that is in believing.....deno.
Someone today needs to read these words.
.......If all you do in your relationship with your wife, with your children, and with your friends is to accuse and to nit pic them all day long about their faults and failures and imperfections, you would have a bitterly tasting ugly very oppressing relationship. The atmosphere of your fellowship gatherings would be loveless, merciless, and depressing, never a joy.
........Well friends the bible tells us to love and accept each other and understand we all have faults, and to be kind and merciful to one another with the love of Christ. Be ye tenderhearted towards one another the scripture says and forgive one another as God for Christ sake has forgiven you.
........If you think that all God your Father cares to do is to nit pic you to death about your faults and failures and imperfections all day long and that's it, there is another spirit sitting upon the throne of your idea about God. Did not Jesus each day love, and fellowship with, and talk to his disciples each day in His joy and peace even though, even though, even though HE KNEW their hearts and KNEW that they were evil (Matthew 7/11) and that they were men and women of many flaws, sinful ways within, and imperfections? Jesus is the same Jesus today in heart as he was then. His heart is the same yesterday, today and forever.
.......Do we not love one another and rejoice with one another in our families and with our friends even though we know each of us have sinful ways and flaws of imperfections? Yes we do... Would God who commanded us to love one another this way DO LESS? Would He not do the same? Would He transgress His own commandment?...Folks we are all justified by faith and not by our perfections...Preaching peace by Jesus Christ and him crucified and risen from the dead....share freely.....deno.
