Matthew 22:8-10 (NASB) “Then he said to his slaves, ‘The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy. Go therefore to the main highways, and as many as you find there, invite to the wedding feast.’ Those slaves went out into the streets and gathered together all they found, both evil and good; and the wedding hall was filled with dinner guests.”  John 15:5, 10 (NASB) “I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.”  This is the heart’s desire of our Father who lives in us. How can we negate the fact of our Father being our Father, and ignore the Maker who lives inside of each and every one of us by His mere breath and DNA? Is He not worthy?  Amidst all that is going on in the world today, all the distractions, and all the atrocities, one thing is clear...

Childlike

Matthew 18:1-6 (NASB) “At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, “Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And He called a child to Himself and set him before them, and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one such child in My name receives Me; but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a heavy millstone hung around his neck, and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.” There’s so much in these verses right here, but to start off, this is what was revealed to me: God, our heavenly Father, is bringing us back into a childlike state. This, spiritually, looks like a growth in maturity. I know this sounds backwards but let me explain (plus things of the kingdom will look and sound backwards). God is bringing us into ...

Romans 12:1-2

Romans 12:1-2 (NASB) “Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.” I was studying and came across this scripture that most know already. I would say it’s a pretty popular one. It’s even more popular when lived by. The more I study and dive deeper, and spend longer hours and time, the more Holy Spirit is speaking.  The closer we get to the return of Jesus Christ, the more alive the scripture becomes and the more you see the prophecies come to pass. I could not go past these two scriptures right here. I kept saying, “That’s it! That’s it!” We just had a literal bomb day at church where our spiritual father spoke of strongholds of the mind; how we keep ourselves in our own bondage p...

Psalm 24:3-6

Psalm 24:3-6 (NASB) “Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? And who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood and has not sworn deceitfully. He shall receive a blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation. This is the generation of those who seek Him, who seek Your face–even Jacob.”  The right heart. With what heart are we doing things for the Kingdom of God? Is there a frequent heart check on deck, or has our flesh consumed this part of reality? Have we truly laid down self, died to our flesh, and repented daily for those things we allow to slip in and devour us? God had to check me, and still does from time to time, in regards to why I do certain things. Holy Spirit makes sure my foundations are pure in coming before Him. Why start off dirty? If your foundation starts off impure and with the wrong heart, intention, and agenda, then this eventually will be exposed if not dealt with...
