Mar. 15, 2023 - I Stand at the Door and Knock

Worship:

Father God, you are amazing and wonderful, our creator and waymaker.  Father, without you, we are empty shells in a fallen world.  We thank you, Jesus, for redeeming us and Holy Spirit, for reviving us.  We are alive through Christ and anxiously await our reunification with you, the blessed and holy trinity!


Clarity regarding infant/child baptism:

I stand at the door and knock.  You must invite me in.  All have free will and may not impose their will on another.  As the gatekeeper, you may for a time, by your authority, claim the protection and blessing in my holy name.  Your children are safe, they have been anointed (baptised) in my holy water.  However, until they fully accept me as their Lord and Saviour, they are not in spiritual communion with me.  To establish a mature and intimate relationship with the Father requires a conscious and sincere invitation, recognition and sanctification by the Holy Spirit.


Santification: to sanctify something is to set it apart for God's special use and purpose. Therefore, God's people are sometimes said to be sanctified because they are set apart for God's special purposes in the world: “Consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy; for I am the LORD your God. Keep my statutes, and do them; I am the LORD who sanctifies you” (Lev 20:7–8). As this verse helps us see, the word sanctification is closely related to holiness. The word sanctification can be used in a similar sense in the New Testament, and in one sense, believers are already sanctified because of what Jesus has done for them. Hebrews 10:10 tells us that as followers of Christ “we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.”

Aug. 13, 2023 - Gracious Words, Divine and Inspired

Worship: Heavenly Father, you are omni-cubed!  You are omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent.  We are so thankful, Father, that this is true.  You are everywhere, you are all-knowing, and all powerful.  We take comfort in your intention and your ability to perform miracles, signs, and wonders.  To lead us into salvation.  Into a world of peace, love, and Joy of the Lord.  Hallelujah for your greatness! Prophetic Prose: Gracious words, divine and inspired from the Word of God, that goes before us, conquering our enemy, bringing peace to the nations, peace to the soul of man.  Many have departed my ways and speak death and destruction, with and without intent.  God knows the difference.  He knows the heart of man.  He sees his actions, his sorrows, pain, and affliction.  Shake off these shackles, children!  Speak scripture over your circumstances (2 Tim 3:16), all scripture is God-breathed and is profitable for instruction, co...

Jun. 19, 2023 - Prayer

Worship: Heavenly Father, you are our strength, our champion and defender, the rock we firmly plant our trust and faith on.  You are our creator, the creator of the cosmos, the fine-tuned universe.  How great is they power that you can envision and engineer such perfect balance?  You are truly awesome and overwhelming to contemplate and yet you call us by our name, you call us your children.  You are our Abba, the endearment for Father, our papa.  Thank you, your blessings are unending, for you are absolutely good.  All glory and praise to the Most High God, His son, Jesus, His Holy Spirit, Amen!

Mar. 18, 2022 - Trust in your Father, you aren't alone

Worship: Adonai ,  Elohim, Creator of the Cosmos and Saviour of the Universe.  Our Redeemer and Restorer, To him we pray, dance and sing! Prophetic Poem: To him we pray, dance and sing, The Lord of everything! His mercy reigns upon us all, His heavenly host has built a wall, A hedge of protection to keep us safe, While God's terror strikes their heart - too late To turn back from their evil ways, They had the chance to repent and praise. Cluster now, within your houses, Gather family, kids, and spouses, A Holy Reckoning has begun, What's started now won't be undone. The hand of God will Bless or Destroy, Revealing lies and death and ploy, of wicked people both here and there, they've plotted and schemed everywhere. It won't stay hidden, for I will expose, the rotten hearts and souls of those, who listened to Satan to their demise, I'm coming now to expose all the lies, The plans for my children, carefully hid, I'm coming now to blow off the lid, All will kno...
