Are you ready?

Many are called but few are chosen…are you ready to answer your calling? Your given assignment must bring glory to God in the end. There are some who don’t heed the call and suffer the consequences. The Most High will surely send another but every now and then much like Jonah, after wasting precious time you will still have to go. Yes we are given choices and even second chances, it’s just better to get it done the first time around so you don’t delay your blessings. I too ran for some time waiting for clarity and wanting to hear a voice of authority telling me exactly what to do and how to do it.

Eventually I surrendered and now my increase is finally pouring in. Although I’m grateful I pushed back years of my life due to slothfulness and disobedience. What I’m suggesting to you today is that even if you don’t have all the details I can assure you that there is always a starting place. Move your feet with faith and the instructions will come. Ask our Savior for the right path to travel while doing the work of the LORD and you will be lead. With love and joy in your heart bring the sheep in to the Shepard, people you don’t even know yet are waiting on you. Be blessed!

John Chapter 2:1-11 (Water into Wine)

And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:

2 And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.

3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.

4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.

5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.

6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.

7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.

8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.

9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,

10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.

11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

What is Anxiety?

Intense, excessive, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations. Fast heart rate, rapid breathing, sweating, and feeling tired may occur. (Mayo Clinic)

When someone has an anxiety attack it is usually caused from an overwhelming spirit of fear. As believers we know that we should fear the LORD and any other fear does not come from Him. PTSD is real and is a condition associated or primarily originated by fear. Rather that fear being installed by a person, situation or even the future it is a barrier for some people to move forward in life. The enemy is crafty ad yet still a liar. We can’t allow fear, doubt, shame or guilt to rule over us. It is better to leave our burdens at the feet of our Creator.

If we practice repentance, forgiveness ad love we’ll keep the monkey off our backs. I know some of you will say that it’s easier said than done and it is. There are no perfect people and letting go of the things or humans that makes feel less than, trapped or defeated can seem intangible. As an empath we hate to leave someone behind that we assume can’t be helped. Such an issue to arise would cause one to have an anxiety attack. In the scriptures we are told to be anxious for nothing. This too sounds easier said than doe but it is a command never the less.

Family, at the end of the day the spirit of anxiousness is unholy and can cause one to feel like they’re dying when in fact it’s simply a scare tactic to cause you doubt in decision making. Pray without ceasing and repent daily knowing that your sins are forgiven so you won’t have to be afraid.

He Whom Was Sent

For spiritual advice book a session by sending an email to stricklyscriptures777@gmail.com

The Son of the Most High God was sent to bare witness of His Father. He was also given to us to be an example and now a mediator. Our Messiah left behind the Holy Spirit as a comfort while we are under subjection from the things of this world. This place we live in was given to satan for a little while, meanwhile we are supposed to be living in love. Christ showed us how to live and if we live in love then we are following the laws of God automatically.

Our big brother better known as Jesus was given unto those that persecuted Him because they didn’t understand that He wasn’t trying to undo what was already done but He was actually walking it out how the Creator intended for us to live in and on purpose. He literally is the branch in which was offered for us to receive so that we may live eternally even after death. Christ came, lived,died and now until he comes again to divide the wheat from the tares he’s interceding for us. Being that satan is the accuser of me, you and our brothers/sisters, God’s Son is in Heaven standing between us and Him to lighten that blow (grace and mercy) that the enemy wants us to experience so we can be angry with God and go to eternal damnation with him when his time is up (which is very close now).

Who doesn’t want a pillow before they slip and fall? Although this is freely given by the Most High via our Messiah we have to agree to receive salvation. The comforter that He left behind (Holy Spirit), leads and guides us in everything we say, do and think…giving us discernment in making the right choices. This makes our Heavenly Father happy with us so that we can be in peace while enjoying the fruitful plain of life until this age is passed away. There is so much we have to endure as we unconsciously wait for the end but if we stay positive, always do our best and give God the glory then we’ve covered the basics.

I could go go on and on about how Christ benefits us and His purpose for coming into the world in human flesh but I’ll let you do some research on your own. Family, live in love and do what it is that the Almighty has placed on your heart to do. Be counted worthy and don’t vex others but do what our Deliverer, the Lion and the Lamb did and represent the Most High God to the best of your ability (giving the word to save souls, healing the sick, casting out unclean spirits, ect.). Shalom

Gratefulness

Appreciation

Thankfulness

Blessings

Increase

Are we supposed to only be thankful one day out of the year? What exactly are we being taught? What are we co-signing to? Are we supposed to lead or follow? Who and what are our examples? Seek out truth and find out the origins of what is celebrated. Are we brave enough to research on our own or do we feel more comfortable staying in what we learned in ignorance? Ask questions! Growth is in learning what the truth is and changing your life for the betterment of generations to come. Sometimes accountability isn’t favorable to the masses. The consequences of knowing what the truth of the matter may separate you from what you think life is. Your normal may be a lie to benefit a dishonest and greedy society or leadership. In enjoying the up and coming holidays remember to search your heart, the scriptures and the origins of what unites us, it just may be a disappointment. Fear not…God will not be mocked. I love you all with the love of Christ, examine the evidence.

Shalom

The Flesh vs. The Spirit

2 Corinthians 10:4-5 KJV

4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

We have to be accountable for the decisions we make in life. These decisions can move us forward or set us back from our destiny. Relationships, careers, protection, provision, happiness, overcoming and even motivations we usually depend on the Most High for but if we are honest we can confess that we play a huge part in these things because of free will in having a choice in the matter. Having this kind of authority can help us or hurt us as people wanting and needing more in certain areas of our lives.

The tools for overcoming take bravery, being set apart takes boldness. Sometimes it’s not easy walking away from unhealthy, rebellious or dysfunctional bondages because the flesh wants what it wants. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. The enemy of your soul wants you to be devoured by addictions, insecurities, shame, fear, filth, struggle, jealousy, danger, rage and many other negative strong holds we should be rebuking from our lives.

It is imperative that we make great choices for our lives considering our spirit first because of where we want to end up for eternity. Rejoicing in health, increase, expansion, discernment, focus, love, peace, trust, forgiveness, obedience, ect. should be our goal. There is strength in courageous and positive decisions but the belief in a higher Power helps us to keep in mind that we are imperfect people seeking perfection to direct us to a place of complete rest. Remember family…spirit first and then body because in any other order there will most likely be chaos and regret.

Sharing

What is Sharing: Have a portion of (something) with another or others or use, occupy, or enjoy (something) jointly with another or others. (via google definitions)

To sum up sharing in my personal view, is to give and take as needed and to do it selflessly. If we take unnecessarily or give unwillingly then we have missed the mark and it won’t be counted towards us as good deeds. Being forced to do well or taking anything without a cause demonstrates to others that we have no morals or values. We are supposed to teach and treat others how we want to be taught and treated. In my opinion it doesn’t make sense to take thing we don’t need or to give to someone what you still want for yourself. There are many Biblical stories (example: the married couple Ananias and Sapphira) that prove not so good outcomes when our hearts are not in the right place. Frankly we don’t even need religion or other motivations in order to feel good or make others happy because it will just feel like the correct things to do.

Although some of these are taught at very young ages, not everyone has adapted and this will be visible through greed and selfishness which are some narcissistic qualities. For more Biblical examples please read my book “Narcissists in the Bible” on Amazon Kindle. This particular post was motivated by me watching a YouTube video and also witnessing countless actions/activities between my 9 year old and my 5 year old second cousin. I call it the “me, me, me/I, I, I syndrome” it’s very entertaining to say the least. In conclusion, when you give and take please allow your heart to lead because what gave won’t give you pleasure and what you took won’t benefit you. Remember you’re being watched…literally!

Change

Many are called but few are chosen, when you hear the call will you answer? I have answered and now my life will never be the same. I am displaced and it’s okay because I trust my Power. His sheep hear His voice and another they will not follow. I am forever changed and my life is not my own. In fact I have gone around the same mountains many times because I just couldn’t get it right. It was frustrating and discouraging but necessary and now I am free.

Now ask yourself what is freedom to you? Are you willing to walk away from everything you deemed yours to follow the Mighty One of Ysolele/Israel? In the new testament there was a rich young man who could not bare to leave all he had. It can be hard to deny yourself, pick up your burdens and follow YissaYah/Jesus. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. How strong are you? Is your walk for you or for the glory of the Most High? Are you willing to be a light on a hill or will your lamp go out because you don’t have enough oil to continue the walk? Are you listening to the set-apart-spirit/holy spirit or are you leaning to your own understanding?

When you are serious about the love you have for the Creator, His Son and His people then and only then will he be able to use you. Old things will pass away and new things will arise, even your understanding of the scriptures and your perceptions of who God is will change. Change is inevitable when you are being taken on a journey that you normally wouldn’t sign up for but in being used, you accept it and move on. This walk is about changing the hearts of men so that eventually the Father will get the glory. In unveiling who He is in your life I suggest you submit because your very life depends on you answering the call. Just know that rather you welcome the change or not, it will come…so choose this day who you will serve!

Faith in God

Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”. Faith is knowing that God is! How can we want the Most High to do exceedingly abundantly all that we can ask or think but not trust that He has the power and control to do it? When we move outside of His will, His word or His way then we become our own power and remove the Father out of His set apart position. Give Him permission to work on your behalf.

When we come humbly before the LORD we must believe with all of our heart, body and soul that He has heard us and that He will move mountains for us. We also have to trust that whatever we bring to the Most High’s footstool will leave us victorious. In other words…get out of the way and allow God to be who He is. Just remember that life and death is in the power of the tongue. Don’t rob Yah of His Authority.

Hearing the Voice of God

Many us as the hearers and doers of God are used to Him speaking to our spirits or minds/hearts but there are many of the LORD’s children who believe that His voice will be audible. Instead of listening to that small still voice (better known as discernment of the Holy Spirit) it’s ignored because we are looking for something more. Hearing the voice of Yah is simple and peaceful, yet if we lean to our own understanding and do not allow Him to order our steps it will lead to confusion and chaos. Not taking heed to the Holy Spirit will give the enemy power that is dangerous to our very life/soul.

I have been able to give spiritual advice concerning this subject to many of the saints by suggesting to just be still. When we don’t know what to do it is better to do nothing and wait which can save us a lot of heartache and headaches. Although I can give this advice now, there was once a time when I was not as sensitive in my spirit enough to hear from our Father just as many of our brothers and sisters suffer with today. Meditating on the word of Yah, praising, praying and even fasting can help us “hear” from God. Going to church and congregating just isn’t enough in these last days, we simply need MORE!

John 16:13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

Take time for yourself, read the word for yourself, ask/believe/receive and hear what the Most High is saying in this time of separation and preparation of His beloved children Israel. He is speaking to your heart today but it is up to you to stop, repent and listen to what His set-apart Spirit is saying because it may save you from being drowned with the cares of this world and set you free for the world/age to come. Until the next blog entry…be increased and consider where you are and where you are going.

Spiritual Battle

WAR

2 Corinthians 10:4-6 (KJV)

4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)

5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

6 And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

FRUIT

Galatians 5:22-26 King James Version (KJV)

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

FLESH

Galatians 5:19-26 King James Version (KJV)

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

ARMOUR

Ephesians 6:10-20 King James Version (KJV)

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,

20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
