The power that raised Christ from the dead, is the same power that is in our earthen vessels, that is, if we have been washed in His Blood! And even with that said, it is measured. We frail humans should not take so much for granted. Imagine His Blood coursing thru our veins and The Holy Spirit teaching us revelations and entrusting great knowledge of Himself to a mortal.
We can ask in His name,with true faith, that it will be answered. We can pray over the sick and expect healing, when we believe. We can trust in Him,without shame that He will always be there for us, no matter the circumstances.
But what He will not do, is be there in unbelief. He keeps saying to me and showing me that people are not quite where they should be in this generation as they have been in time passed.
I am reminded of the times Jesus would have people leave a room when He was about to heal someone, and they had unbelief. This is so important that He has over and over impressed on me the follie of men who think they have a feeling that god has been in their life, when He hasn't. They conger up thoughts that make them feel warm and fuzzy. They have neither grown in Him or even studied The Scriptures. It's like saying you belong to a certain group, yet you have never been to a meeting or know what they stand for. They spout nonsense and give you an old wives tale story , as if it were His Gospel. And make no mistake ,the devil will leave these people alone.
This unbelief has worried me.To be told that so many have claimed His name , and yet He knows them not. That just sickens me!
We need to leave all things behind, our religion, politics, family, friends,what ever it is that does not believe in Him. For there is coming a day when none of that matters.We need to be so in love with Jesus, The Son of Almighty God, Jehovah, that we are not ashamed of The Gospel of Christ Jesus, for It Is The Power Of God Unto Salvation.

The Sin of Unbelief!
The last few days The Lord has showed me somethings that really hit home and made a lasting impression. Everywhere I go and have conversations with people it is revealed where they are. Like Adam, who was called by The Lord in the garden, in the day he had sinned. The Lord called out,"Adam, where are you?"
Well, I see where they are when I speak with them. It is so telling where they are in Christ, or where they are not in Him. The minute they open their mouth, they can't help but say where they are. They are ignorant to this fact, that one who knows The Lord so well, does not need a litmus test. It is a red flag to those of us who love The Lord.
What is this red flag? UNBELIEF! Yes, they do not believe in The Son who came from Glory to lay down His life for their sins. They think it is a story that fathers and mothers and Sunday school teachers tell their kids. He is not real to them. I am not sure that He was ever real to them! I am not sure that they were once washed in His Blood to cleanse them from sin.
In Hebrews 3, we read the Jews were cut off because of their unbelief. God was grieved because of all He had done for them and yet they had evil unbelief. Yes, it says unbelief is evil! They could not enter into His Rest because of evil unbelief.
So too, shall we be denied His Peace and Rest when we do not believe in Him.
So where are you? Ask yourself that ? truthfully. Judge yourself in these matters and right yourself with The Lord.

Recently, The Lord reminded me to look for, The Old Paths, that Jeremiah speaks of in Jeremiah 6:16. When we ask for the old paths and walk therein, we shall find rest for our souls. But in Jeremiah they refused to do what they were told. They were given Divine advice, but refused it.
All civilizations have crumbled without Christ, and so too will America. People have turned their backs on Christ and The Scriptures. Many churches preach a watered down gospel, a cheap greasy grace.
The Grace which Christ offers is anything but cheap. The reason it is getting by is the people are not where they should be with The Lord or The Scriptures. That means many are not really saved and had the miracle of the new birth experience. They were told just ask The Lord in and that is that. But, sadly, that is not how The Holy Spirit works. This is why so many false teachers have crept in unaware, as The Scripture says in Jude verse 4.
The ground must be turned for the Seed to grow, it must be worked to make sure the Seed, when planted, will be received, tended to and fertilizd
We are living in sad days. We, as Americans, should be on our knees every morning before we do anything else. The laughter and mirth should turn to tears. We, like Jeremiah, as a people ,should be called the weeping prophet. But sadly there are too few Americans weeping for our salvation. We need to cry out for His mercy! We need to repent, as a people, for the sins we have committed. Also for the things we haven't done that we should have done. We need to repent for kicking The Lord's prayer out of public schools. I could go on and on with a long list of sins. We have forgotten our first Love, it's that truth that has sent the world governments spiraling out of control financially and morally!
