Hello and God bless you this wonderful time in Jesus Christ. Loves Living Word Ministries has been busy. Helping people who are afflicted with demonic activity. Showing them that Our Lord and savior Jesus Christ came back to save all who came to from the torment and whiles of the evil one. Praise God He is faithful.. I know what it is like to have been tormented and harassed by demonic influences and activity. And more so when you are in Ministry and involved in that sort of deliverance. The Lord has prepared Loves Living Word Ministry well in this field. We have not arrived yet nor will we till we meet our Heavenly Father face to face and be with Him forever. Until then Loves Living Word Ministries is excited and thankful for being able to share the Love of Christ Jesus and show people the Truth in His word and see it changed and applied to their lives. Jesus transforms brokenness, despair, people with no way out with by His supernatural Love, Peace, Joy, Favor-Grace.
Once they were bound but Jesus set them free.
He came so that all could be free and who the Son set free is free indeed just as the bible says in JOHN 8:36 Amen.
So give Him your love, talk to him.. He is waiting if you haven’t with open arms saying I never left your side as the bible states. I was just waiting for you to call to me. Jeremiah 3:33 says “Call to me and I will answer thee and I will show you GREAT and MIGHTY things” He loves you so much. Its about time people accepted His love and gifts without missing out or as sad as it is contributing to the agenda of the evil one. We have talked about Love, it is a huge subject and study. We have only scratched the surface because God is the infinite God who is love as we have seen in previous blogs. I suggest you do a personal study on Love in the bible and it will open so much up for you and blow your intellect apart to what you thought about the word love meant to an expansion and revelation that is no other than supernatural from the Holy Spirit direct to you; His child. His precious beautiful child. Who lives in if you invited him by Christ Jesus and only him.
So we are near the end of the study of 1 Corinthians’ 13:4-8
It says in the bible LOVE covers a multitude of SINS… that is how powerful Love is… lets look at this.. In bit more detail.
The Holy Spirit has emphasized how important it is for people to operate the way God does.. The way Jesus does and the way the Holy Ghost does. That is in LOVE. This is His being,.. His nature, His Character, His attributes.
Now I understand that this is difficult at times. How can I say that? I know because I walk in LOVE more than most and I still slip when pushed to my limit at this point in time and miss it too. It doesn’t matter to much if you have missed it or how much you were pushed to miss it. If you ask God to forgive you and hold no offense and apologies even if you weren’t in the wrong to the other party.
You are free… LOVE covers a multitude of Sins.. Take the experience and learn from it. See the strategies of the dark one operating through others and you at times and make sure you get on your knees to God and thank Him that you have been shown something important. That the part of you that got upset or pushed to the limits ask Him to strengthen you in that area. Ask the Lord if you walked into a trap set up by the dark one who was using people who weren’t aware they were even being used to give you increased wisdom and Discernment… YOU cant go wrong!! What ever your situation or experience… It’s a win-win situation because of Gods love. The love that covers a multitude of sins.. Its covers every sin. ALL. As long as you repent and turn away from it. If you find that difficult ask the Lord to help you. He’s waiting and HE will do it for you. This is part of His gifts of Grace and LOVE.
Lets look at our Study we almost at the end of this powerful and important scripture.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8 it says Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."
This is the New International Version we have studied. But Lets take a look at the New King James Version because it explains things a bit better:
"Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails."
LOVE ENDURES ALL THINGS/ALWAYS PERSEVERES.
Powerful statement and confession. Start confessing that today.
Lets take a look at what endurance means… In the English dictionary it says:
1. To carry on through, despite hardships; Picture this: endure an Arctic winter as an example. Living or walking in adverse conditions.
2. To bear with tolerance: To put up with and tolerate even in gritted teeth at times. The Lord will sustain you. Ask Him to help you get through, He will. Don’t try work it out. I know because I have tore my hair not knowing fully why its happening and that stole a part of my peace and gave a window for the dark one to attack me. The Lord will show you after the event and when that comes great peace and revelation follows. You have grown. You are more able and even more powerful to Gods kingdom now If you have the right heart and have not grown to weary and given up! Don’t give up there no time to give up if you have Jesus in your heart/spirit then you are more than a conqueror it says and you can endure doing what ever you are faced with in this life. Nothing is impossible to God is says in the bible NOTHING. Only believe. Hold fast in Faith in Him, His word ,His promises and more importantly His love for you and the power that it holds. It will defeat anything in your path that is NOT from Your Father in heaven. It will sustain you if it is part of being refined in the fiery furnace as it says in the bible ( purifying you, getting rid of any bronze and leaving just pure Gold in your whole life and being)
3. To continue in existence; last: Like a building that lasts doesn’t break down. Strong firm set in concrete!!!! Wind may rage around you, violent wind as said in Isaiah 54. A strong violent tempest, a storm. But it cant knock you down and keep you there!!!! Its ok to be knocked down a little that’s normal its whether you stay there, give up or you use that storm as a mighty step into your NEW season and growth in Christ Jesus.
Get up…reach to me the Lord says release all that pains you and watch my spirit pour out from you and around you. Hold on my child. I am with you. I will never leave you nor forsake you. My mercy endures forever. Amen.
Jesus gave us all authority to do as He did and speak to any storm or strong wind trying to rage in your life. Speak to it in faith in Jesus Christ name and watch it go.. Sometimes it will stop instantly… and on the odd occasion it takes a little bit longer. If that is the case do not waiver. Or think you have done wrong or it doesn’t work. IT DOES>>> HOLD FAST TO THE CONFESSION OF YOUR FAITH!.
Endure means: To suffer patiently without yielding. Without giving in, giving up, becoming too overwhelmed or overtaken. Just know that it will come to an end. The Lord is doing much in the background and you are being refined and built as a mighty warrior for His Kingdom and end time Ministry. Its says many faint and grow weary in the bible. I can understand this. But don’t stay there. You have the tools and power in you that raised Jesus Christ from the dead. You can endure. LOVE endures ALL things. That covers everything that goes on. No matter what, ALL means all. Just because others haven’t gone through it doesn’t mean that you are in the wrong. If Jesus meant just a few select things we may be faced with then He wouldn’t have said ALL things. ALL covers a broad and long spectrum. Just know that if you are walking right and you are in God word; He will sustain and bring you through in more VICTORY than you can imagine. Both in this world and in your spiritual walk and life: but also for the greater glory His Kingdom. It may not even be shown for a while but boy does The Lord see the future. He’s the only one who does correctly and He has your back and will be using what ever you were faced with to help His children and you now or in the future.
Get great comfort from this… If you are a Christian you are to live a life for Him first. We are here for just a small pin prick in time to where you are going next. That’s with Him in heavenly Glory and splendor…. No pain No suffering, No trails, No sickness, No rejection, No loneliness, No misunderstandings, No false accusations or any other thing that you have been faced with or have had to put up with! . Oh no! Just PURE LOVE. Oh Lord, How wonderful you are. You are our deliverer and our strength. Be as David was in the bible Lets look at this:
2 Samuel 22:1-51 David’s Song of Deliverance
1 And David spoke to the LORD the words of this song on the day when the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul.
2 He said,
"The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
3 my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield, and the horn of my salvation,
my stronghold and my refuge,
my savior; you save me from violence.
4 I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised,
and I am saved from my enemies.
5 "For the waves of death encompassed me,
the torrents of destruction assailed me;
6 the cords of Sheol entangled me;
the snares of death confronted me.
7 "In my distress I called upon the LORD;
to my God I called.
From his temple he heard my voice,
and my cry came to his ears.
8 "Then the earth reeled and rocked;
the foundations of the heavens trembled
and quaked, because he was angry.
9 Smoke went up from his nostrils,
and devouring fire from his mouth;
glowing coals flamed forth from him.
10 He bowed the heavens and came down;
thick darkness was under his feet.
11 He rode on a cherub and flew;
he was seen on the wings of the wind.
12 He made darkness around him his canopy,
thick clouds, a gathering of water.
13 Out of the brightness before him
coals of fire flamed forth.
14 The LORD thundered from heaven,
and the Most High uttered his voice.
15 And he sent out arrows and scattered them;
lightning, and routed them.
16 Then the channels of the sea were seen;
the foundations of the world were laid bare,
at the rebuke of the LORD,
at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
17 "He sent from on high, he took me;
he drew me out of many waters.
18 He rescued me from my strong enemy,
from those who hated me,
for they were too mighty for me.
19 They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
but the LORD was my support.
20 He brought me out into a broad place;
he rescued me, because he delighted in me.
21"The LORD dealt with me according to my righteousness;
according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.
22 For I have kept the ways of the LORD
and have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 For all his rules were before me,
and from his statutes I did not turn aside.
24 I was blameless before him,
and I kept myself from guilt.
25 And the LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness,
according to my cleanness in his sight.
2;6 "With the merciful you show yourself merciful;
with the blameless man you show yourself blameless
27 with the purified you deal purely,
and with the crooked you make yourself seem tortuous.
28 You save a humble people,
but your eyes are on the haughty to bring them down.
29 For you are my lamp, O LORD,
and my God lightens my darkness.
30 For by you I can run against a troop,
and by my God I can leap over a wall.
31 This God— his way is perfect;
the word of the LORD proves true;
he is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.
32"For who is God, but the LORD?
And who is a rock, except our God?
33 This God is my strong refuge
and has made my way blameless.
34 He made my feet like the feet of a deer
and set me secure on the heights.
35 He trains my hands for war,
so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.
36 You have given me the shield of your salvation,
and your gentleness made me great.
37 You gave a wide place for my steps under me,
and my feet did not slip;
38 I pursued my enemies and destroyed them,
and did not turn back until they were consumed.
39 I consumed them; I thrust them through, so that they did not rise;
they fell under my feet.
40 For you equipped me with strength for the battle;
you made those who rise against me sink under me.
41 You made my enemies turn their backs to me,
those who hated me, and I destroyed them.
42 They looked, but there was none to save;
they cried to the LORD, but he did not answer them.
43 I beat them fine as the dust of the earth;
I crushed them and stamped them down like the mire of the streets.
44"You delivered me from strife with my people;
you kept me as the head of the nations;
people whom I had not known served me.
45 Foreigners came cringing to me;
as soon as they heard of me, they obeyed me.
46 Foreigners lost heart
and came trembling out of their fortresses.
47 "The LORD lives, and blessed be my rock,
and exalted be my God, the rock of my salvation,
48 the God who gave me vengeance
and brought down peoples under me,
49 who brought me out from my enemies;
you exalted me above those who rose against me;
you delivered me from men of violence.
50 "For this I will praise you, O LORD, among the nations,
and sing praises to your name.
51 Great salvation he brings to his king,
and shows steadfast love to his anointed,
to David and his offspring forever."
He worshiped God.. David sang to God… Worship is so powerful. It breaks through to the anointing of God. That anointing breaks all bondage's, all chains, all the power of darkness. Any trail, pain or anything you are facing. It may be hard to worship if you are going off your feelings. But beloved, do not look to your emotions. They can get out of control easily. Beloved, look to your God, your Father, your maker. The one who is there all the time and understands every single little thing that is going on. He is the one who will help. Its by His power and His power alone that you were saved if you accepted Jesus Christ and it is by His power and His alone that you will be sustained in all things. The Lord is Good His Mercy ( LOVE) endures forever Psalms 105:3. Pray this prayer :Colossians 1: 9-189 For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10 that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11 strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy;
12 giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.
13 He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,
14 in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones ( Angels) or dominions ( Angels) or principalities ( Angels) or powers.(Angels) All things were created through Him and for Him.
17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.
18 And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the pre-eminence. Amen. Verse 17 its by Him and only HIM. Its through HIM you can endure in LOVE. His Love becoming your love. Your love mixed with His love.. Oh such a beautiful union. You are his bride. His true love. Be his. And Let Him be yours.
Endure - Think of a race… long distance that athletes train for.. Do they just one day decide I’m going to do a marathon…not train and just go for it? No? If they did that they wouldn’t last five minutes.. They would be unfit and unprepared. They would have no lasting endurance. What gives you endurance. Christ.. His love in and through you. Draw on that. His word. speak it out in prayer and faith in god. You have to do your part though. If you just sit around moaning and talking bad about your situations guess what its not going to get better. If you listen to others rather than God guess what its not going to help you. Don’t rely on anyone other than your heavenly Father they cant help you only He can sustain you. Don’t expect others to understand either unless they have been through the same thing and even then its different for them. The one you talk to is God and Him alone in Jesus name. The Holy Ghost is there waiting to help you. He is your teacher. You have to change the way you think. The way you see things. You have to become like a soldier who is not moved by what is coming at you from all directions. We do this by re-newing our mind, will and emotions to the word of God. You have to learn to keep your emotions in check. This comes in time and will only be mastered the more discernment you have and revelation in Gods word. You are doing great… keep going. Ask God for theses things and keep asking don’t stop… It will be given. You will be surprised at how He was tugging at you already and after the event how it makes sense.
Endure can mean: put up with something or somebody unpleasant; This shows that we are going to have upsets, we are going to have trails. It shows we are going to have people rise up against you, go in for the attack etc. It says we are to endure, immovable, firm, putting up with it in LOVE even if its unpleasant.
Now I can tell you from experience even if you are loving, have great patience and walk in love most of the time…. more than most. You will be tested, You will be pushed to the limits and you can and will get overwhelmed. This happens when you don’t fully understand why its all going on, that’s normal but You are an extraordinary person if you are in Christ now. You can overcome. Say that… I AM AN OVERCOMER! Don’t try and work it out, don’t condemn yourself in thinking you must have done something wrong. If you are walking in His will you haven’t. Don’t loose sight of this when its gone on for too long and you are really pushed past normal limitations. Stand firm in the knowledge that Your Father LOVES you and HIS LOVE ENDURES ALL THINGS. But also you walk in LOVE it will endure and sustain you also. Its so important. Be watchful.. Alert… vigilant. I have learntWhen you have received the revelation of the test and trail, when you have gained the knowledge and understanding of the test. When you have endured and missed it … stepping out of love for a brief moment towards another perhaps.. don’t condemn yourself, do what was stated earlier. All have fallen short of the glory of God the bible says. All.. Its ok… God loves you. Do what is right with a right heart and the Lord will bring you that peace and understanding that is needed. He see’s you heart, He see’s your patience, He sees your endurance and knows the struggle you have been under. He see’s your whole life. Others don’t… If you have been misunderstood or wrongly accused. Know that time and Gods love will straighten it out and show the truth. Don’t despair. Use the patience and peace that Jesus gave to you. Some of His wonderful and precious Gifts.Keep going in Love.. For Love and through Love.. This is the most powerful force in the whole universe. It covers a multitude of Sins… Jesus came back just for that purpose. To cover the sin that is over the world and its people. Remember we were all born into it through the first Adam. Jesus is the second Adam and He did it right. He beat temptation from the dark one under severe adverse circumstances because he knew that we couldn’t and He was beaten unrecognizably and hung on the cross for you and me. He knew He had to endure the most horrific physical, emotional and spiritual pain and suffering. He made the choice to do so for you and me. He could have backed out.. He could have give up and I am sure myriads of angels would come as a cloud and translated Him back to His father and rightful place.
But He didn’t…. He endured and put up with Sneers. false accusations. hatred, bitterness, jealousy, ridicule, torment, persecution, misunderstandings, rejections, abandonment, separation for you and for me. He endured and bore the whole weight of Sin on Himself
1 Peter 2:24"He himself bore our sins" in his body on the tree, so that we might die to those sins and live righteously. "By his wounds you have been healed."
Jesus is the Only one who knows what you are going through. How you are feeling, How hard it has been and He is the ONLY ONE who will deliver and make your path straight. He will free you of the wind.. The tempest.. Or anything you have to endure for Loves sake. Love Endures all things. If the Lord says it endures all things then it does. Believe it…. don’t forget it. You are through and overcoming In Jesus Christ Name;.
Paul an Apostle of The Gospel ofJesus Christ said this:
Romans 8:38-39New International Version (NIV)
38 “For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. ”
NOTHING can separate you from the LOVE OF GOD NOTHING!
Say this out aloud… remind yourself of this.. Have it up on your wall.. If you need more than one wall have it up in every room you go to.. So when things come and you find yourself in a position that you didn’t expect. A position you don’t understand fully yet and don’t like but know that its to do with the Kingdom then you have this precious peace and promise from Paul an Apostle of the Gospel of Jesus Christ who was speaking by the Holy Spirit. NOTHING can separate you from the LOVE OF GOD NOTHING!
Paul an apostle of Christ went through tremendous perils, stresses, strains and endurance building. He did so as this was his walk and his mandate. He did so because through Gods grace and help he brought the gospel and love of Jesus Christ to the gentiles ( all other nations other than Israel). He went through all that because all of Hell tried to stop him and failed….. Praise God. Failed over and over and every victory won strengthened Paul in his walk for the kingdom. WHY? God was with HIM. No one can stand against God this is how we endure… Have Faith in God… all things are possible. As we have seen in previous Blog’s.
God is Love check out the scriptures showing this and see previous blogs.. He can do all things and love can and will endure in all things.. ALL. No exceptions.. Not “he can’t get me out of this one“ or “this is too much and too hard“. LOVE endures all things. There is no favoritism either. Jesus came for us all not just a select few. Its up to the individual person whether they accept Him or not.
God saw Paul’s Heart.. Even though in the beginning the guy was actually working for the dark side without Him realizing it. God loved Him. Jesus Loved Him. The Holy Spirit was working behind the scenes for the right perfect time to reveal Jesus To Him.
Paul loved the Lord with all his heart and was under deception against “The Way” ( Jesus Christ’s Gospel) thinking it was heresy. (Deception).. Until he had an encounter with Jesus Christ Himself. Paul was illuminated and the deception of the dark one was lifted from His eyes. He loved God so much and was so shocked that He had been deceived. Let me tell you if Paul can be deceived by the evil one.. With a heart all out for God then anyone can. I was like Paul deceived but loved God so very much!! We will do a teaching on deception. A whole different subject.
Getting back to Paul’s story after the deception was lifted.. Great distrust had been restored and all the hatred from the Pharisees who wanted Jesus dead raged. He became the Great Apostle of The Christian Church…He said this about the things he had to endure and endure He did because the Lord was with Him. The Lord sustained Him because of Paul's faith in Him and because Paul did not grow weary. He did what the Lord said and followed the Holy Spirit and no other!….
He also described in short what He endured for Christ and Gods Kingdom.
11 Corinthians 11:23 Are they servants of Christ? (I am out of my mind to talk like this.) I am more. I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. 24 Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. 25 Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, 26 I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers. 27 I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked. 28 Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches.
Jesus said “ Come to me all who are weary and heavy burdened and I will give you rest”
Loves Living Word Ministries was due to finish the message off today Sunday 11/12/12 .. It has now been cut short.
One scripture:
Mathew 7:28-29 “ Everyone who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house upon the rocks. And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house yet it did not fall”
Love ENDURES ALL THINGS....
Be blessed this new month in Christ Jesus.
Are you ready for the truth?
Love

Raging Storm Perfect Peace 12/11/2011 Loves Living Word Ministries
Hello and God Bless you . I trust that this month has been a blessed month in the Lord. I know mine has been in many ways. Praise His Holy Name in all the earth! Sing Praise to his name every day. Worship Him even when you may be going through tough times. God sees your love and faith in Him and He WILL PULL YOU THROUGH. “His time is not our time” its says in
2 Peter 3:8 “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Just like it says in the bible in Isaiah 55:8-9 “
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the LORD.
“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Study this think about this mediate on this!
God is with you through every storm thrown your way by the dark side.
Be patient don’t give up. Don’t waiver and don’t buy into the lies of satan or man. Don’t listen to anyone else either other than the Holy Spirit and Gods word. Stand firm in your Faith in Your Heavenly Father He will get you through if you don’t NOT waiver! No time for doubt time to stand instead Firm. Having the Armour of God provided for you in
Ephesians 6:10-18
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Have a look at a previous blog on the armor this would be very beneficial to you!
He is the only one you can depend on fully! He is the only One who can deliver you. Help you, Guide you. Comfort you. It’s through Him all things were created.
John 1:3 “ All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Colossians 1:16 “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:”
Praise God... Who is The Mighty Elah... El Shaddai ( The ALL SUFFICIENT GOD).. He Loves you... He is Faithful He will always be there for you.
Walk in His power if you are a born again spirit filled child of His. That power Exousia ( Authority over all things ALL means ALL) Dunamis ( Explosive power) Kratos ( creative Power). This s your Inheritance as His child. Its yours receive it NOW! Amen.
God Bless you... WALK with Elah.. El Gibbor...Elyon...Jehovah Shaphat...Elohim...Jehovah Nissi...
Have a look in a bible concordance and see what these names of God mean!
His word says....
Malachi 4:3 "You will tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day which I am preparing," says the LORD of hosts.
Psalms 91:13 " Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet."
Luke 10:19 "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you."
Take Hold of This... Its yours.. You gift from your Heavenly Father.. he has given you all the Weapons of warfare you will ever need. Its in HIM and HIM Jesus Christ ALONE!
See also: 2 Corinthians 10:4 where The Apostle Paul said
“ For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, ( of the flesh) but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; (Powers that are demonic or Thought patterns) He goes on to say that we also have to cast down vain imaginations and every High things that exalts itself against the knowledge and wisdom of God. Pulling every thought into the captivity of the obedience of Christ” in verse 5
This shows your mind is a battle field also. Protect your mind. Re new your thinking mind and soul realm totally to Gods ways; read His ways in his word, pray and hear the Holy Spirit direct your path. His ways are NOT your ways! Wear you helmet. Stay in His will! Simple! You got it!
In Times of trouble and suffering Paul said rejoice. You know Jesus said there would be trails and tribulations in this world. But He also said this but be of GOOD CHEER because I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD. John 16:33
(Trouble Storms anything like that is satan, his demons, the flesh, People badmouthing you, anything bad, any storm ) He stripped ALL of its power. So that you could WALK IN HIS POWER……… FREE! “ For who the son sets free is free indeed“! John 8:36 Amen!
So be patient. Pray for patience. Don’t let any one fill you head with anything other than Gods word and His promises. You will know If you are walking In His ways and in His will that any storm will pass. You must rejoice.. You will have grown, increased and seen breakthrough…. You must be an asset to the Kingdom of God. Especially if you are being BADMOUTHED! Because if you are not being attacked there is something wrong.
Paul went through so many perils etc.. so did all the disciples of old. But most importantly Look what Jesus Christ went through over and over again. He was the one who went through it all… He was even set upon and rejected by His own people and His home town where he said “ A Prophet has no honor in His own country John 4:44”
Not only was he up against all that but He was up against all the forces of evil as well. How did He over come? He walked in the POWER OF GOD. And You know what? He did it For you and for me…. He did so that we could go free, so we don’t have to be subject to terror, oppression or anything from the curse That how much God and Jesus loves you and us. NEVER EVER FORGET THAT! So walk in Hs Power. Stay in His power, “ where the spirit of the Lord is there is liberty” It will come Have faith!
Prayer This prayer daily Jesus taught us how we should pray in Mathew 6:9-13
“ Our Father who art in Heaven. Hallowed ( holy is thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth and as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us! And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, The POWER AND THE GLORY for ever and ever Amen
That pretty much covers everything you can’t go wrong with that.
It says in
Romans 10:9-10
“If you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.”
If you would like to receive Christ as Your Lord and Savior then say this prayer with me now.
“ Father forgive me for my sins. Jesus Christ come into my life and heart. Guide me, By having the eyes of my heart flooded with light, so that I can know and understand the hope to which He has called me, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones). Eph 1:18
show me the way the truth and the life. I make you Lord over my life and I believe you have been raised from the dead and live forever more in Heaven. Thank you for my new life. I give it to you In Jesus Christ Name Amen”
Now find out what the promises God has for you. Start with the New Testament.. Enjoy your New Life in Christ The Holy Messiah ( Anointed one). In His power He will break you free from anything that has been hurting you. ANYTHING.
He Loves you, God loves you, That’s why He sent His son back. see John 3:16

1 Corinthians 1:18
"For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God".
2 Peter 3:8 “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Just like it says in the bible in Isaiah 55:8-9 “
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the LORD.
“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Study this think about this mediate on this!
God is with you through every storm thrown your way by the dark side.
Be patient don’t give up. Don’t waiver and don’t buy into the lies of satan or man. Don’t listen to anyone else either other than the Holy Spirit and Gods word. Stand firm in your Faith in Your Heavenly Father He will get you through if you don’t NOT waiver! No time for doubt time to stand instead Firm. Having the Armour of God provided for you in
Ephesians 6:10-18
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
Have a look at a previous blog on the armor this would be very beneficial to you!
He is the only one you can depend on fully! He is the only One who can deliver you. Help you, Guide you. Comfort you. It’s through Him all things were created.
John 1:3 “ All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
Colossians 1:16 “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:”
Praise God... Who is The Mighty Elah... El Shaddai ( The ALL SUFFICIENT GOD).. He Loves you... He is Faithful He will always be there for you.
Walk in His power if you are a born again spirit filled child of His. That power Exousia ( Authority over all things ALL means ALL) Dunamis ( Explosive power) Kratos ( creative Power). This s your Inheritance as His child. Its yours receive it NOW! Amen.
God Bless you... WALK with Elah.. El Gibbor...Elyon...Jehovah Shaphat...Elohim...Jehovah Nissi...
Have a look in a bible concordance and see what these names of God mean!
His word says....
Malachi 4:3 "You will tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day which I am preparing," says the LORD of hosts.
Psalms 91:13 " Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet."
Luke 10:19 "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you."
Take Hold of This... Its yours.. You gift from your Heavenly Father.. he has given you all the Weapons of warfare you will ever need. Its in HIM and HIM Jesus Christ ALONE!
See also: 2 Corinthians 10:4 where The Apostle Paul said
“ For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, ( of the flesh) but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; (Powers that are demonic or Thought patterns) He goes on to say that we also have to cast down vain imaginations and every High things that exalts itself against the knowledge and wisdom of God. Pulling every thought into the captivity of the obedience of Christ” in verse 5
This shows your mind is a battle field also. Protect your mind. Re new your thinking mind and soul realm totally to Gods ways; read His ways in his word, pray and hear the Holy Spirit direct your path. His ways are NOT your ways! Wear you helmet. Stay in His will! Simple! You got it!
In Times of trouble and suffering Paul said rejoice. You know Jesus said there would be trails and tribulations in this world. But He also said this but be of GOOD CHEER because I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD. John 16:33
(Trouble Storms anything like that is satan, his demons, the flesh, People badmouthing you, anything bad, any storm ) He stripped ALL of its power. So that you could WALK IN HIS POWER……… FREE! “ For who the son sets free is free indeed“! John 8:36 Amen!
So be patient. Pray for patience. Don’t let any one fill you head with anything other than Gods word and His promises. You will know If you are walking In His ways and in His will that any storm will pass. You must rejoice.. You will have grown, increased and seen breakthrough…. You must be an asset to the Kingdom of God. Especially if you are being BADMOUTHED! Because if you are not being attacked there is something wrong.

What is Biblical HOPE? 09/10/2011
Hello and God Bless you… Hope you have been well and had a good few weeks. This is The blog of Lisa Tierney Enjoy Loves Living Word Ministries Holy Spirit Teachings based on the WORD OF GOD
God is a Righteous God… That is who He is.
He wishes for us to be righteous also. When you are born again ( except Jesus into your heart ) you become righteous with him. How? You are in right standing with Almighty God through Christ. When you except Christ into your heart, His spirit comes to live inside of you. The Holy Spirit. You then have His nature, His character in you. As a child of God you are to be righteous in deed not just in position.
This is something this world lacks. Backstabbing, nastiness, evil, cruelty, egotism, ignorance, selfishness, denial and blame passing, all these things are very present in this world and this operates through many people here. This is not Gods Nature this is the anti Christ’s. We are a people who are meant to be like Jesus… Holy, righteous, good!
I call you to be as Jesus is now in Jesus Christ Name. We are not to spread evil but instead spread His love, His righteousness, His goodness. Jesus paid the ultimate price once and for all so that you could walk this way on this earth. He paid the price in blood and pain to defeat the dark side so that all that you have done in your life can be forgiven, and does’nt exist anymore. Not so you could hate your family, friends and anyone else. Not so you could be jealous of another. Not so you could be spread lies and bitterness if you don’t get your own way. If people would get hold of the fact that Gods nature Love and Righteousness is the answer this world would be a very different place! Salvation is to give you a changed nature, an offer of righteousness from God. Not just a ticket to heaven!.
I am still learning myself, I too have to put up with awful people passing blame, spreading lies and causing you problems. I am still learning to let go of my old nature, the one that fights back. The one that insults another because they have insulted you. The old nature that retaliates when attacked. No matter how much pressure you are under, if you don’t bite into their bait you can walk righteously and behave in a Holy manner. I am not there yet but I am on my way!.
Every experience is taken, learned from, adapted and changed through prayer and walking with God. He shows you where the error occurred and usually if it’s a person who has been in your life for a while, if you are walking closely with God He will have given you early warning signs to prevent the circumstance happening in the first place. In my case recently I didn’t heed to my Fathers instruction, He told me to back away from a person. He saw their heart, their motives, He sees everything! I saw warning signs but over rode them thinking I was able to help them. I was manipulated in a way that satan uses people. So when the circumstance finally arrived and the attack began, Because of many pressures I bit back! Praise God for His love, guidance and mercy. He was able to show me why this materialized, what I should have done to prevent it and not to get into that situation again. His love is wonderful even when you make mistakes He is right there to show you where you went wrong and that He loves you regardless. A wise person will take on board the experience and see the positive outcome involved, that’s you being changed further so that the same mistake does not happen again.
We are all going to make mistakes it is what you do with them that counts. As a person of God in my case I have learnt a valuable lesson. it’s a life changing lesson. If you are walking with God and preaching and teaching about the love of God and his righteousness satan will come along to test that very thing. There is no condemnation to those that are in Christ Jesus, even if you didn’t behave correctly, you can correct that by learning from the experience and not make the same mistakes again. God knows we are not perfect, He knows the anti Christ’s spirit roams in people on this earth. This doesn’t bother Him one bit, so don’t let it bother you either. As a person who has learnt a valuable lesson don’t ever over ride the Holy Spirit and his guidance. Listen to him, act on what He says, do it straight away, Don’t worry about the outcome. I can vouch it would be a lot less stressful or upsetting than the outcome that would happen if you went ahead and did it anyway. Praise GOD for His love and healing power. Praise God that even though I with all the right intentions didn’t listen to him. He never left my side, He was there when things got rough and He was there to encourage and strengthen me in that area so next time I know what to do ahead of time.
This is one of His precious gifts to His people, He is the one who sees ahead, sees a persons heart and intentions. He is the one that sees all things behind closed doors. He is the one that will make your path straight, He sees the pitfalls that satan has put in place for you and He is the one who will guide your steps if you will let him. We have a precious gift of protection if we will heed to His instructions. He is the one that is there even when we don’t and we are faced with undesirable circumstances. This gift is precious more precious than and jewel or money could ever bring. He is the one that paves the way for the righteous ( His people) so take it from someone who has been through certain circumstances unnecessarily. When you have built a relationship with your heavenly Father and you hear the voice of the Holy Spirit LISTEN to it. Do not ever override Him. No matter how good your intentions are DADDY KNOWS BEST! Amen! Your daddy wants to take care of you , He is the only one that can do so with the very best of intentions, no ulterior motives, no agenda other than love. So Hope in the Lord, put your trust in him. Take him at his word, believe in Him. Take His precious promises in the bible and apply them to your life today. If He says you are righteous and His, then You are His.
Don’t ever listen to the goats that say YOU!!!! a Christian! No one is perfect if we were Jesus would not have had to come back and die for us.. We were all born under sin and can and do sin.. That nature is built in us, Jesus came to bring his nature back to us.. So even if you mess up don’t listen to the goat pulling you down! Its a goat speaking, who ever listens to goats will end up butting their own head against a fence repeatedly. The Goats don’t listen or hear God, God said “ my sheep will hear my voice. This is how the Lord separates the sheep from the goats. The Kingdom of Heaven comes close to many people, the sad thing for many is they let it pass them by. We can listen to God. He the only one you should listen too… We can listen to ourselves thinking we know best ( and find that yet again you didn’t) or you can listen to the goats and satan. The message is LISTEN TO GOD! No other!
We have been studying 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 today we will look at the latter part of this scripture we are almost complete with the study of 1 Corinthians 13:4-8.
It says Love always hopes, Love hopes all things.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8 it says Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."
This is the New International Version we have studied. But Lets take a look at the New King James Version because it explains things a bit better:
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
Hope in the English dictionary means: a feeling that what is wanted will happen. It is a confident expectation. Hope is a case of it may happen but again it may not I’m hoping it will.
The Way the word hope is used in this world is very different to bible hope. We use the word hope like this for example:
“I’m hoping to catch the bus in half and hour” it is a futuristic term. Future tense.
Another term “I hope she comes tonight so we can have a good catch up” again future tense. But it isn’t a full on it is going to happen.
This type of hope is not the biblical type of hope God talks about, “Love always hopes-Love hopes all things”
Biblical hope is so powerful, it is a confident expectation and a KNOWING that what is wanted will happen. Its is closely linked with Faith.
It is the no matter what my circumstances may say type of hope for example:
“ You have a serious health condition, your doctor says there is no hope ( how apt) yet; you have studied the word of God, used it in your life and seen it work time and time again. You know that Gods word is the truth, alive and powerful and it works so you “Hope” in the promises God has said about Healing in the bible. You Hope even though your body is showing and feeling otherwise. You hope even though you are in so much pain, You hope in Gods promises because Gods word says that Faith is the opposite of what a lot of people in this world operate in. They operate in “well when I see it I will believe it“. This is the opposite of How Gods has taught us to operate. Faith and bible hope is believing in the promises of God and not wavering no matter what you are up against. When you do that you have broken through to the supernatural realm and in doing so God can release His supernatural power to accomplish that which you are hoping for.
Hebrews 3:6 "But Christ (the Messiah) was faithful over His [own Father's] house as a Son [and Master of it]. And it is we who are [now members] of this house, if we hold fast and firm to the end our joyful and exultant confidence and sense of triumph in our hope [in Christ]."
Hebrews 10:23 "So let us seize and hold fast and retain without wavering the hope we cherish and confess and our acknowledgement of it, for He Who promised is reliable (sure) and faithful to His word. "
Romans 15:4 "For whatever was thus written in former days was written for our instruction, that by [our steadfast and patient] endurance and the encouragement [drawn] from the Scriptures we might hold fast to and cherish hope."
Romans 8:25 "But if we hope for what is still unseen by us, we wait for it with patience and composure."
Now there is a line to be drawn here. Obviously it has to be in line with Gods will and what His promises are. You can’t go around hoping saying “ Well I’m believing God that I will win the lottery”!
You will be waiting a very long time!. It must be aligned with Gods will and promises and here is the great and good news. There are thousands of them in the bible. All absolutely wonderful, all attainable, all yours for the receiving if you are born again to The spirit of God in Christ Jesus. In Gods word at
2 Corinthians 1:10 it says “All the promises of God are yes and Amen in Christ Jesus”.
ALL means ALL! So how about having a look at what God has promised His people and then compare that to what the world has to offer. There is no CONTEST!
Gods promises are not like mans… Man breaks his promises over and over even legal binding contracts and agreements are breached. This is the nature of Man. BUT Gods promises are ones that you can Hope in, believe in and trust in. No matter what is going on in your life or what you are up against. It may appear that the exact opposite of Gods promises is happening in your life and how could you possibly believe in what Gods word says. The only way to do so is to build a solid relationship with God, get to know Him, His word and Jesus through the Holy Spirit the teacher and reveal-er of the truth. When you know God, Have experienced His supernatural power in your life, when you have experienced His love in your life nothing can shake you unless you allow it. You have assurance that His promises come to pass, He never breaks His word or promises.
New Living Translation 2007
Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through?”
Isaiah 40:8 “The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever."
He is God the almighty sovereign Lord. He is Love Itself. Gods word says LOVE ALWAYS HOPES- LOVES HOPES IN ALL THINGS. Did you know that God actually believes in you. He has every faith in you!
As a child of His, to be able to receive all He has for you, you must operate by His nature, His way of doing things not the worlds. His way is biblical hope, faith, absolute trust and believing in what God says and not what it looks like. This is LOVE ALWAYS HOPES No matter what! But not on something that could never be. Hopes on the truth and realty that WILL COME TO PASS if you don’t waiver and let doubt creep in! So for example You hope in Gods promises HIS WORD and claim them for your life regardless of the situation and what appears to be happening… Ie: what your circumstances are saying.
This could be an illness, this could be debt and no money, this could be many of the things the world throws at you. When you get to know God and have faith in Him and his word. You are able to hope no matter what is going on knowing that is if you stand firm and not grow weary with the things that are going on in your life, biblical hope is a guarantee that things will turn around. By this I don’t mean a 360 turn right back where you were. I mean a 180 turn in the opposite direction! In order to stay in biblical hope you must stay in His word, renew your mind ( thinking) to the word of God and when this is done you are able to see as Gods sees things ( a supernatural way ). This is the truth…..Things are not as they appear. We know this for example: A person judges another by the way they dress and what they look like, and in many cases when they actually spoke to that person and found out what was happening or has happened in their life they realize that actually what they had thought about that person was not the case. This is a classic example of things appearing a certain way and actually they are far from. You must have heard the saying " Never judge a book by its cover"!
Lets take a quick look at Abraham.. He was a man who loved God and God saw his heart and love for Him. His name was Abram, God told Him that He was going to make covenant with Him. Part of the Hebrew culture was this, when you entered into a blood Covenant it was unbreakable. The two persons involved exchanged robes, all that was theirs was now also the covenant partners so if one lost all his worldly goods; the other covenant partner would give no matter what half of his to his partners or vice verse. There were certain symbolic acts that the persons did in the covenant exchange. One was the exchange of names. So God said to Abram, I am giving you part of my name which is Jehovah and He told Abram that his name was now "Abraham" which means “Father of many nations” This was so odd to Abraham as he had a wife called sarai who was barren. They were unable to have children, They were both very old Abraham in his nineties, Sarah also in her late years and as we know having a child at that age or over is virtually impossible…. So Abrams name changed to Abraham, Now Abraham knew that all the Jewish people would be laughing at him and talking about him because a name was a very important part of their culture and it symbolized their own life to a T. And he was in his nineties and fatherless and now he was going to have everyone call him “Father of many Nations”!!!! However He was like ok Lord, Abraham it is.. God changed Sarai’s name also to Sarah, He was in blood covenant with her also. He told Sarah she was going to have a son at the age she was. Can you imagine what this looked like, it was virtually impossible. She didn't doubt God she took His word knowing full well that whatever God said was truth... Then Abraham was told. Did Abraham say no way its impossible… it cant be done, I'm of old age etc…. or did He believe the word of the Lord regardless of his body, his circumstances and his wife's barren womb!? We could go a lot deeper with the story but instead have a study of the story for yourself! This fantastic historical event is recorded in Genesis. So how did Abraham take what the Lord said to him about having a Son? Did he use Faith in God? This is the scripture we should look at here…
Romans 4:16-19 “ Abraham did not weaken in faith when He considered the impotence of his body which was as good as dead because He was about 100 years old or the barrenness of Sarah s womb”
No Abraham didn’t look at what things appeared instead; He bypassed all this and hoped in God and His word, He trusted, He believed in Faith and didn’t waiver and a miracle happened to Him and Sarah happened they had a son Isaac! Not only that He did become "The Father of Many Nations" but that's another study! This biblical HOPE…
The bible has hundreds of these types of Historical events that happened.
Questions is…. What do you have your hope in? Take it from someone who has had everything taken away from them, left with no solution from the world and its people no matter how intelligent they were!!!! Thank God I put my hope in God and his word through Christ. I wouldn’t be where I am today.
Im on my way! The right way! Praise God.
Hope in all things, never give up with hoping in Christ and his word! You cant go wrong, you will be on the path to life. light, blessings and righteousness. There is no better place! This is the truth, This is what so many miss out on. Don’t be one of them who will have to look on in torment forever and ever and ever agonizing over why you let Christ pass you by. All He wants to do is love you, take care of you, give you the real truth not the deception that lingers over the world. He wants to give you His ability, His love. LOVE ALWAYS HOPES.
Romans 15:13 "May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope." AMEN
Are you ready for the TRUTH?
God Bless you and study all we have seen here today. If you would like to invite Jesus into your life heart and spirit then say this prayer.
“ Father forgive me for my sins. Jesus Christ come into my life and heart. Guide me, By having the eyes of my heart flooded with light, so that I can know and understand the hope to which He has called me, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones). Eph 1:18 show me the way the truth and the life. I make you Lord over my life and I believe you have been raised from the dead and live forever more in Heaven. Thank you for my new life. I give it to you In Jesus Christ Name Amen”
If you have said this prayer for the first time please let LOVES LIVING WORD MINISTRIES know about it. I would love to here from you!
Question is : ARE YOU READY FOR THE TRUTH?

1 Corinthians 1:18
"For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God".
God is a Righteous God… That is who He is.
He wishes for us to be righteous also. When you are born again ( except Jesus into your heart ) you become righteous with him. How? You are in right standing with Almighty God through Christ. When you except Christ into your heart, His spirit comes to live inside of you. The Holy Spirit. You then have His nature, His character in you. As a child of God you are to be righteous in deed not just in position.
This is something this world lacks. Backstabbing, nastiness, evil, cruelty, egotism, ignorance, selfishness, denial and blame passing, all these things are very present in this world and this operates through many people here. This is not Gods Nature this is the anti Christ’s. We are a people who are meant to be like Jesus… Holy, righteous, good!
I call you to be as Jesus is now in Jesus Christ Name. We are not to spread evil but instead spread His love, His righteousness, His goodness. Jesus paid the ultimate price once and for all so that you could walk this way on this earth. He paid the price in blood and pain to defeat the dark side so that all that you have done in your life can be forgiven, and does’nt exist anymore. Not so you could hate your family, friends and anyone else. Not so you could be jealous of another. Not so you could be spread lies and bitterness if you don’t get your own way. If people would get hold of the fact that Gods nature Love and Righteousness is the answer this world would be a very different place! Salvation is to give you a changed nature, an offer of righteousness from God. Not just a ticket to heaven!.
I am still learning myself, I too have to put up with awful people passing blame, spreading lies and causing you problems. I am still learning to let go of my old nature, the one that fights back. The one that insults another because they have insulted you. The old nature that retaliates when attacked. No matter how much pressure you are under, if you don’t bite into their bait you can walk righteously and behave in a Holy manner. I am not there yet but I am on my way!.
Every experience is taken, learned from, adapted and changed through prayer and walking with God. He shows you where the error occurred and usually if it’s a person who has been in your life for a while, if you are walking closely with God He will have given you early warning signs to prevent the circumstance happening in the first place. In my case recently I didn’t heed to my Fathers instruction, He told me to back away from a person. He saw their heart, their motives, He sees everything! I saw warning signs but over rode them thinking I was able to help them. I was manipulated in a way that satan uses people. So when the circumstance finally arrived and the attack began, Because of many pressures I bit back! Praise God for His love, guidance and mercy. He was able to show me why this materialized, what I should have done to prevent it and not to get into that situation again. His love is wonderful even when you make mistakes He is right there to show you where you went wrong and that He loves you regardless. A wise person will take on board the experience and see the positive outcome involved, that’s you being changed further so that the same mistake does not happen again.
We are all going to make mistakes it is what you do with them that counts. As a person of God in my case I have learnt a valuable lesson. it’s a life changing lesson. If you are walking with God and preaching and teaching about the love of God and his righteousness satan will come along to test that very thing. There is no condemnation to those that are in Christ Jesus, even if you didn’t behave correctly, you can correct that by learning from the experience and not make the same mistakes again. God knows we are not perfect, He knows the anti Christ’s spirit roams in people on this earth. This doesn’t bother Him one bit, so don’t let it bother you either. As a person who has learnt a valuable lesson don’t ever over ride the Holy Spirit and his guidance. Listen to him, act on what He says, do it straight away, Don’t worry about the outcome. I can vouch it would be a lot less stressful or upsetting than the outcome that would happen if you went ahead and did it anyway. Praise GOD for His love and healing power. Praise God that even though I with all the right intentions didn’t listen to him. He never left my side, He was there when things got rough and He was there to encourage and strengthen me in that area so next time I know what to do ahead of time.
This is one of His precious gifts to His people, He is the one who sees ahead, sees a persons heart and intentions. He is the one that sees all things behind closed doors. He is the one that will make your path straight, He sees the pitfalls that satan has put in place for you and He is the one who will guide your steps if you will let him. We have a precious gift of protection if we will heed to His instructions. He is the one that is there even when we don’t and we are faced with undesirable circumstances. This gift is precious more precious than and jewel or money could ever bring. He is the one that paves the way for the righteous ( His people) so take it from someone who has been through certain circumstances unnecessarily. When you have built a relationship with your heavenly Father and you hear the voice of the Holy Spirit LISTEN to it. Do not ever override Him. No matter how good your intentions are DADDY KNOWS BEST! Amen! Your daddy wants to take care of you , He is the only one that can do so with the very best of intentions, no ulterior motives, no agenda other than love. So Hope in the Lord, put your trust in him. Take him at his word, believe in Him. Take His precious promises in the bible and apply them to your life today. If He says you are righteous and His, then You are His.
Don’t ever listen to the goats that say YOU!!!! a Christian! No one is perfect if we were Jesus would not have had to come back and die for us.. We were all born under sin and can and do sin.. That nature is built in us, Jesus came to bring his nature back to us.. So even if you mess up don’t listen to the goat pulling you down! Its a goat speaking, who ever listens to goats will end up butting their own head against a fence repeatedly. The Goats don’t listen or hear God, God said “ my sheep will hear my voice. This is how the Lord separates the sheep from the goats. The Kingdom of Heaven comes close to many people, the sad thing for many is they let it pass them by. We can listen to God. He the only one you should listen too… We can listen to ourselves thinking we know best ( and find that yet again you didn’t) or you can listen to the goats and satan. The message is LISTEN TO GOD! No other!
We have been studying 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 today we will look at the latter part of this scripture we are almost complete with the study of 1 Corinthians 13:4-8.
It says Love always hopes, Love hopes all things.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8 it says Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."
This is the New International Version we have studied. But Lets take a look at the New King James Version because it explains things a bit better:
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
Hope in the English dictionary means: a feeling that what is wanted will happen. It is a confident expectation. Hope is a case of it may happen but again it may not I’m hoping it will.
The Way the word hope is used in this world is very different to bible hope. We use the word hope like this for example:
“I’m hoping to catch the bus in half and hour” it is a futuristic term. Future tense.
Another term “I hope she comes tonight so we can have a good catch up” again future tense. But it isn’t a full on it is going to happen.
This type of hope is not the biblical type of hope God talks about, “Love always hopes-Love hopes all things”
Biblical hope is so powerful, it is a confident expectation and a KNOWING that what is wanted will happen. Its is closely linked with Faith.
It is the no matter what my circumstances may say type of hope for example:
“ You have a serious health condition, your doctor says there is no hope ( how apt) yet; you have studied the word of God, used it in your life and seen it work time and time again. You know that Gods word is the truth, alive and powerful and it works so you “Hope” in the promises God has said about Healing in the bible. You Hope even though your body is showing and feeling otherwise. You hope even though you are in so much pain, You hope in Gods promises because Gods word says that Faith is the opposite of what a lot of people in this world operate in. They operate in “well when I see it I will believe it“. This is the opposite of How Gods has taught us to operate. Faith and bible hope is believing in the promises of God and not wavering no matter what you are up against. When you do that you have broken through to the supernatural realm and in doing so God can release His supernatural power to accomplish that which you are hoping for.
Hebrews 3:6 "But Christ (the Messiah) was faithful over His [own Father's] house as a Son [and Master of it]. And it is we who are [now members] of this house, if we hold fast and firm to the end our joyful and exultant confidence and sense of triumph in our hope [in Christ]."
Hebrews 10:23 "So let us seize and hold fast and retain without wavering the hope we cherish and confess and our acknowledgement of it, for He Who promised is reliable (sure) and faithful to His word. "
Romans 15:4 "For whatever was thus written in former days was written for our instruction, that by [our steadfast and patient] endurance and the encouragement [drawn] from the Scriptures we might hold fast to and cherish hope."
Romans 8:25 "But if we hope for what is still unseen by us, we wait for it with patience and composure."
Now there is a line to be drawn here. Obviously it has to be in line with Gods will and what His promises are. You can’t go around hoping saying “ Well I’m believing God that I will win the lottery”!
You will be waiting a very long time!. It must be aligned with Gods will and promises and here is the great and good news. There are thousands of them in the bible. All absolutely wonderful, all attainable, all yours for the receiving if you are born again to The spirit of God in Christ Jesus. In Gods word at
2 Corinthians 1:10 it says “All the promises of God are yes and Amen in Christ Jesus”.
ALL means ALL! So how about having a look at what God has promised His people and then compare that to what the world has to offer. There is no CONTEST!
Gods promises are not like mans… Man breaks his promises over and over even legal binding contracts and agreements are breached. This is the nature of Man. BUT Gods promises are ones that you can Hope in, believe in and trust in. No matter what is going on in your life or what you are up against. It may appear that the exact opposite of Gods promises is happening in your life and how could you possibly believe in what Gods word says. The only way to do so is to build a solid relationship with God, get to know Him, His word and Jesus through the Holy Spirit the teacher and reveal-er of the truth. When you know God, Have experienced His supernatural power in your life, when you have experienced His love in your life nothing can shake you unless you allow it. You have assurance that His promises come to pass, He never breaks His word or promises.
New Living Translation 2007
Numbers 23:19 “God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through?”
Isaiah 40:8 “The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever."
He is God the almighty sovereign Lord. He is Love Itself. Gods word says LOVE ALWAYS HOPES- LOVES HOPES IN ALL THINGS. Did you know that God actually believes in you. He has every faith in you!
As a child of His, to be able to receive all He has for you, you must operate by His nature, His way of doing things not the worlds. His way is biblical hope, faith, absolute trust and believing in what God says and not what it looks like. This is LOVE ALWAYS HOPES No matter what! But not on something that could never be. Hopes on the truth and realty that WILL COME TO PASS if you don’t waiver and let doubt creep in! So for example You hope in Gods promises HIS WORD and claim them for your life regardless of the situation and what appears to be happening… Ie: what your circumstances are saying.
This could be an illness, this could be debt and no money, this could be many of the things the world throws at you. When you get to know God and have faith in Him and his word. You are able to hope no matter what is going on knowing that is if you stand firm and not grow weary with the things that are going on in your life, biblical hope is a guarantee that things will turn around. By this I don’t mean a 360 turn right back where you were. I mean a 180 turn in the opposite direction! In order to stay in biblical hope you must stay in His word, renew your mind ( thinking) to the word of God and when this is done you are able to see as Gods sees things ( a supernatural way ). This is the truth…..Things are not as they appear. We know this for example: A person judges another by the way they dress and what they look like, and in many cases when they actually spoke to that person and found out what was happening or has happened in their life they realize that actually what they had thought about that person was not the case. This is a classic example of things appearing a certain way and actually they are far from. You must have heard the saying " Never judge a book by its cover"!
Lets take a quick look at Abraham.. He was a man who loved God and God saw his heart and love for Him. His name was Abram, God told Him that He was going to make covenant with Him. Part of the Hebrew culture was this, when you entered into a blood Covenant it was unbreakable. The two persons involved exchanged robes, all that was theirs was now also the covenant partners so if one lost all his worldly goods; the other covenant partner would give no matter what half of his to his partners or vice verse. There were certain symbolic acts that the persons did in the covenant exchange. One was the exchange of names. So God said to Abram, I am giving you part of my name which is Jehovah and He told Abram that his name was now "Abraham" which means “Father of many nations” This was so odd to Abraham as he had a wife called sarai who was barren. They were unable to have children, They were both very old Abraham in his nineties, Sarah also in her late years and as we know having a child at that age or over is virtually impossible…. So Abrams name changed to Abraham, Now Abraham knew that all the Jewish people would be laughing at him and talking about him because a name was a very important part of their culture and it symbolized their own life to a T. And he was in his nineties and fatherless and now he was going to have everyone call him “Father of many Nations”!!!! However He was like ok Lord, Abraham it is.. God changed Sarai’s name also to Sarah, He was in blood covenant with her also. He told Sarah she was going to have a son at the age she was. Can you imagine what this looked like, it was virtually impossible. She didn't doubt God she took His word knowing full well that whatever God said was truth... Then Abraham was told. Did Abraham say no way its impossible… it cant be done, I'm of old age etc…. or did He believe the word of the Lord regardless of his body, his circumstances and his wife's barren womb!? We could go a lot deeper with the story but instead have a study of the story for yourself! This fantastic historical event is recorded in Genesis. So how did Abraham take what the Lord said to him about having a Son? Did he use Faith in God? This is the scripture we should look at here…
Romans 4:16-19 “ Abraham did not weaken in faith when He considered the impotence of his body which was as good as dead because He was about 100 years old or the barrenness of Sarah s womb”
No Abraham didn’t look at what things appeared instead; He bypassed all this and hoped in God and His word, He trusted, He believed in Faith and didn’t waiver and a miracle happened to Him and Sarah happened they had a son Isaac! Not only that He did become "The Father of Many Nations" but that's another study! This biblical HOPE…
The bible has hundreds of these types of Historical events that happened.
Questions is…. What do you have your hope in? Take it from someone who has had everything taken away from them, left with no solution from the world and its people no matter how intelligent they were!!!! Thank God I put my hope in God and his word through Christ. I wouldn’t be where I am today.
Im on my way! The right way! Praise God.
Hope in all things, never give up with hoping in Christ and his word! You cant go wrong, you will be on the path to life. light, blessings and righteousness. There is no better place! This is the truth, This is what so many miss out on. Don’t be one of them who will have to look on in torment forever and ever and ever agonizing over why you let Christ pass you by. All He wants to do is love you, take care of you, give you the real truth not the deception that lingers over the world. He wants to give you His ability, His love. LOVE ALWAYS HOPES.
Romans 15:13 "May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope." AMEN
Are you ready for the TRUTH?
God Bless you and study all we have seen here today. If you would like to invite Jesus into your life heart and spirit then say this prayer.
“ Father forgive me for my sins. Jesus Christ come into my life and heart. Guide me, By having the eyes of my heart flooded with light, so that I can know and understand the hope to which He has called me, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones). Eph 1:18 show me the way the truth and the life. I make you Lord over my life and I believe you have been raised from the dead and live forever more in Heaven. Thank you for my new life. I give it to you In Jesus Christ Name Amen”
If you have said this prayer for the first time please let LOVES LIVING WORD MINISTRIES know about it. I would love to here from you!
Question is : ARE YOU READY FOR THE TRUTH?

A poem... by Lisa Tierney
Without HIM we are nothing!
By Lisa Tierney 19/09/11 Copy writed to Lisa Tierney
God reaches to places man could never reach
His heights are infinitely beyond
His love remains steadfast, stable unchanged
even when He has been wronged
Such a sweet voice steering inside my head
urging me to keep going on
release to me my child the pain within
Let me sing you a new song!
So as I release re new refresh In Him
I feel the strength re build once again within
His fragrance emanates, within my soul
His warmth and joy fills in that hole
to overflowing with and everlasting love
as i stand in awe as look on above
To our maker the one who has paved the way
The bringer of Light and peace for every day
Father my love, My all, My Life
help me tame the darkness the evil the strife
that constantly knocks on your servants door
Your blood cover this, I stand firm so sure
as the fiery darts horde after horde hit the floor.
My God My all My Life so true
where would I be if I was without you.
A rainbow in the sky, a message, a sign
your gentle voice conveying what is divine
Your precious gifts within me growing strong,
Relaying what you need to be known
How great is your love a love through all time
unchanging, stable, simply divine..
The blood you shed once and for all for me and mine
Keeps me going until the end of all time.
His heights are infinitely beyond
His love remains steadfast, stable unchanged
even when He has been wronged
Such a sweet voice steering inside my head
urging me to keep going on
release to me my child the pain within
Let me sing you a new song!
So as I release re new refresh In Him
I feel the strength re build once again within
His fragrance emanates, within my soul

18/09/11 What are you listening too? 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 LOVE ALWAYS TRUSTS
Hello and God Bless you. Hope you have been well.
God is a good God, nothing bad could ever come from Him.
What have you been listening to this week? Have you been listening to the bad report? Or have you been listening to your circumstances that are screaming out things are bad!. God word says LOVE ALWAYS TRUSTS in the latter part of 1 Corinthians 13:4-8…. When we are in Christ we too are to trust. Are we just to trust anything or anybody. No!
We are to trust in the one who is and always will be faithful Jesus Christ. We are to trust in Gods word.
If anyone is going through a harsh time right now Gods word will give you the answer.. It is up to you to speak it out of your mouth and believe on it ( trusting) even if you don’t see change straight away. This is Faith in Gods promises. This is TRUST….. All Gods promises are given to the born again spirit filled believer in Christ. The Answer is Jesus Christ. He is the one who can supernaturally change your circumstance around just like that! He is the one who will comfort you when you received the bad report and no one can help you not even your family or doctors. Jesus is the one who will help you when all you seem to be around is badness yet inside you know this isn’t right and you want out! Jesus is the answer when there seems to be no way out.
Psalm 112:7 “He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is firmly fixed, trusting (leaning on and being confident) in the Lord. “
Jesus is the answer even if your life is just fine. Jesus is the answer full stop and He is coming back very soon. Will you be with him, have faith, trust and confidence in him or do you disbelieve in Him? Do you trust that He came to save you from the grips of darkness or do you trust in what the world says.. That he doesn’t exist, its just stories… or so what if he did I know better I don’t need him. Do you trust in yourself more than you trust in the Living God? So many people put their confidence and trust in either themselves, people and circumstances only to find out sooner or later that the very things you have trusted in has let you down. Sometimes big time! Jesus will never ever let you down. Why? Because that is not his nature… His nature is LOVE. But He is more than that He actually is LOVE.
And in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 it says Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."
This is the New International Version we have studied. But Lets take a look at the New King James Version because it explains things a bit better:
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
This week we will look at “LOVE ALWAYS TRUSTS”
Lets break down what Trust means in the English dictionary:
1. firm belief in the reliability, truth, or ability of someone or something:
As Christians, when you became a Christian you had to believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and He is part of the trinity Father Son and Holy Ghost. You had to believe if you are re born that as the bible says in John 3:16 “ God so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son that who so ever shall believe on Him shall not perish but have everlasting LIFE (eternal life)”
That is a firm belief in Jesus, what He came here for and what you attain if you believe on HIM… As a Christian you believed in Him that He is reliable, He is the Truth, He has the ability. You have trust in HIM. Jesus. You have Trusted in his word.
In Jesus you can trust but not just in who he is, but what He did as seen by eyes witnesses and recorded through time but also in what He still does today supernaturally. He has the biggest following of people trusting in Him more than any other religion or group still to this day. Why? Because He is real, He can be trusted. He is reliable and if He said you can do something you can. If he said you can have something then you can. His word is full of mighty and precious promises. So what do you have your trust in?
As parents we are in positions of trust to make sure the child has a good up bringing, is safe, healthy. loved and cared for. Jesus is in a position of trust over all of us.. God knew He was the only one who could defeat satan and gain back authority from the dark side. Jesus wants to take care of us, help us grow, protect us, to make us successful. He wants to share mighty and precious things with us. Secrets of heaven, Things this world knows nothing about. Precious Jewels and revelations. He wants to share his LOVE with you, but not just so that you can feel his love, much deeper than that So can see His love being evident in your life and of those who are yours.
He wants to show you that trusting in the things of this world will not satisfy you and instead will take you away from Him and closer to the dark one. Jesus wants to show you that in Him you can do many things, things you wouldn’t even dream you could do. You could do them why? Because He said so and His ability is in you if you are born again. It bypasses yours and He can work through you.
Why does Jesus want to work through you? To help other people who are lost. Hurting and going to Hell. Jesus came and paid the price once and for all… ALL means ALL people not just some. It’s a case of who will take His hand and let him enter your heart or who will close off thinking they know best and one day be told “The Kingdom of Heaven has been near to you” but you let it pass you by. Jesus is entrusted with responsibility to love and help us. ALWAYS.
This world and the way it behaves doesn’t know how to trust. You have a legally binding agreement for virtually everything theses days! Why? Because man and his word have been broken over and over again…there is no trust in man. The type of trust you have in a legally binding agreement can still be breached and still is being breached regardless. There is no absolute confidence in that either. This is not the type of trust Gods word means.. When he says “love always trusts“.. That is absolute 100% confidence in…. When God talks about trust.. He means no matter what without wavering.. One hundred percent type of Trust without wavering, breaking, changing your mind or becoming weary.
A trust that says even if my body is sick and not working the way it should. I am going to trust God and what his word says that Jesus came to heal and you can receive your healing from any illness through trusting in this. Gods type of trust is when your bank account is empty and you have bills that need meeting and no way of paying them.. Trust is this… Trusting in What Gods promises are regarding finances without wavering. Not looking at the situation… not looking at the fact that you have no money… looking and trusting in what is yours. The promises that God has shared in his word for you; The promises Jesus shared and enabled for you to have.
Psalms 71:5 “For You are my hope; O Lord God, You are my trust from my youth and the source of my confidence”
“Love Always Trusts”
Love = God/Jesus Love = Gods nature inside of us when we are born again
Always = Forever no matter what
Trusts = Relies, cleaves to, depends, believes in, has faith in, confidence in :
Jesus Christ, who is the word of God made flesh and dwelt amongst us. John 1
Trust in Gods word.
Proverbs 16:20 “ He who deals wisely and heeds [God's] word and counsel shall find good, and whoever leans on, trusts in, and is confident in the Lord--happy, blessed, and fortunate is he“.
“LOVE ( you who are of God if born again) ALWAYS TRUSTS”. Don’t waiver if you are experiences set backs.. Don’t buckle under pressure, Don’t give up when you are almost there. Reach out to Him and put your trust in Him, Our precious wonderful Jesus, the one who will never let you down. I guarantee you do that expect supernatural encounters to occur, Expect miracles to take place. Expect the impossible to be made possible.
Trusting in Jesus is a crucial thing to do in this day and age. Time is short and soon all will have to stand before the white throne of God and declare whether you accepted or rejected Jesus.
Question is who have you been listening too? Who have you put your trust in?
Are you ready for the truth?
God Loves you, Jesus died for you. Take His hand and experience His love and power.

1 Corinthians 1:18
"For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God".
God is a good God, nothing bad could ever come from Him.
What have you been listening to this week? Have you been listening to the bad report? Or have you been listening to your circumstances that are screaming out things are bad!. God word says LOVE ALWAYS TRUSTS in the latter part of 1 Corinthians 13:4-8…. When we are in Christ we too are to trust. Are we just to trust anything or anybody. No!
We are to trust in the one who is and always will be faithful Jesus Christ. We are to trust in Gods word.
If anyone is going through a harsh time right now Gods word will give you the answer.. It is up to you to speak it out of your mouth and believe on it ( trusting) even if you don’t see change straight away. This is Faith in Gods promises. This is TRUST….. All Gods promises are given to the born again spirit filled believer in Christ. The Answer is Jesus Christ. He is the one who can supernaturally change your circumstance around just like that! He is the one who will comfort you when you received the bad report and no one can help you not even your family or doctors. Jesus is the one who will help you when all you seem to be around is badness yet inside you know this isn’t right and you want out! Jesus is the answer when there seems to be no way out.
Psalm 112:7 “He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is firmly fixed, trusting (leaning on and being confident) in the Lord. “
Jesus is the answer even if your life is just fine. Jesus is the answer full stop and He is coming back very soon. Will you be with him, have faith, trust and confidence in him or do you disbelieve in Him? Do you trust that He came to save you from the grips of darkness or do you trust in what the world says.. That he doesn’t exist, its just stories… or so what if he did I know better I don’t need him. Do you trust in yourself more than you trust in the Living God? So many people put their confidence and trust in either themselves, people and circumstances only to find out sooner or later that the very things you have trusted in has let you down. Sometimes big time! Jesus will never ever let you down. Why? Because that is not his nature… His nature is LOVE. But He is more than that He actually is LOVE.
And in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 it says Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails."
This is the New International Version we have studied. But Lets take a look at the New King James Version because it explains things a bit better:
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
This week we will look at “LOVE ALWAYS TRUSTS”
Lets break down what Trust means in the English dictionary:
1. firm belief in the reliability, truth, or ability of someone or something:
As Christians, when you became a Christian you had to believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and He is part of the trinity Father Son and Holy Ghost. You had to believe if you are re born that as the bible says in John 3:16 “ God so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son that who so ever shall believe on Him shall not perish but have everlasting LIFE (eternal life)”
That is a firm belief in Jesus, what He came here for and what you attain if you believe on HIM… As a Christian you believed in Him that He is reliable, He is the Truth, He has the ability. You have trust in HIM. Jesus. You have Trusted in his word.
In Jesus you can trust but not just in who he is, but what He did as seen by eyes witnesses and recorded through time but also in what He still does today supernaturally. He has the biggest following of people trusting in Him more than any other religion or group still to this day. Why? Because He is real, He can be trusted. He is reliable and if He said you can do something you can. If he said you can have something then you can. His word is full of mighty and precious promises. So what do you have your trust in?
As parents we are in positions of trust to make sure the child has a good up bringing, is safe, healthy. loved and cared for. Jesus is in a position of trust over all of us.. God knew He was the only one who could defeat satan and gain back authority from the dark side. Jesus wants to take care of us, help us grow, protect us, to make us successful. He wants to share mighty and precious things with us. Secrets of heaven, Things this world knows nothing about. Precious Jewels and revelations. He wants to share his LOVE with you, but not just so that you can feel his love, much deeper than that So can see His love being evident in your life and of those who are yours.
He wants to show you that trusting in the things of this world will not satisfy you and instead will take you away from Him and closer to the dark one. Jesus wants to show you that in Him you can do many things, things you wouldn’t even dream you could do. You could do them why? Because He said so and His ability is in you if you are born again. It bypasses yours and He can work through you.
Why does Jesus want to work through you? To help other people who are lost. Hurting and going to Hell. Jesus came and paid the price once and for all… ALL means ALL people not just some. It’s a case of who will take His hand and let him enter your heart or who will close off thinking they know best and one day be told “The Kingdom of Heaven has been near to you” but you let it pass you by. Jesus is entrusted with responsibility to love and help us. ALWAYS.
This world and the way it behaves doesn’t know how to trust. You have a legally binding agreement for virtually everything theses days! Why? Because man and his word have been broken over and over again…there is no trust in man. The type of trust you have in a legally binding agreement can still be breached and still is being breached regardless. There is no absolute confidence in that either. This is not the type of trust Gods word means.. When he says “love always trusts“.. That is absolute 100% confidence in…. When God talks about trust.. He means no matter what without wavering.. One hundred percent type of Trust without wavering, breaking, changing your mind or becoming weary.
A trust that says even if my body is sick and not working the way it should. I am going to trust God and what his word says that Jesus came to heal and you can receive your healing from any illness through trusting in this. Gods type of trust is when your bank account is empty and you have bills that need meeting and no way of paying them.. Trust is this… Trusting in What Gods promises are regarding finances without wavering. Not looking at the situation… not looking at the fact that you have no money… looking and trusting in what is yours. The promises that God has shared in his word for you; The promises Jesus shared and enabled for you to have.
Psalms 71:5 “For You are my hope; O Lord God, You are my trust from my youth and the source of my confidence”
“Love Always Trusts”
Love = God/Jesus Love = Gods nature inside of us when we are born again
Always = Forever no matter what
Trusts = Relies, cleaves to, depends, believes in, has faith in, confidence in :
Jesus Christ, who is the word of God made flesh and dwelt amongst us. John 1
Trust in Gods word.
Proverbs 16:20 “ He who deals wisely and heeds [God's] word and counsel shall find good, and whoever leans on, trusts in, and is confident in the Lord--happy, blessed, and fortunate is he“.
“LOVE ( you who are of God if born again) ALWAYS TRUSTS”. Don’t waiver if you are experiences set backs.. Don’t buckle under pressure, Don’t give up when you are almost there. Reach out to Him and put your trust in Him, Our precious wonderful Jesus, the one who will never let you down. I guarantee you do that expect supernatural encounters to occur, Expect miracles to take place. Expect the impossible to be made possible.
