Smear of the Secular



The Smear of the Secular happens when Christians touch the things of the world that marks the sheep from being of God. We are born in this world however only traveling through. As Gods elect telling those who don’t know about Jesus Christ they should know that only He is the mediator between God and man. He alone can save them from this sin sick world that we live in from the Words that we his elect speak in the name of Jesus Christ. When we are touching thing of the world which is consider to be a dirty covered or marked and burse  by the prince of the air  which is the devil.  Ephesians 2: 1-3: “And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worked in the children of disobedience: Among whom we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others”. It really don’t matter had sanctify you claim you are if you think and act like the world you cannot be saved.  Please I am not self-righteous I just telling you like it is. You cannot serve right and wrong at the same time. You can't walk into light and still walk into darkness at the same time. You will become resentful and angry at self and this is the reason why. You cannot serve both it is purely impossible to do. You can only serve one master and that is Jesus Christ or the world. Anything of this world is consider to be an unclean substance.  If not saved it is spreading and pollution in this world and now we are mark by this world. Many Christian seem to think that God cannot blot their names out of the book of life. This is not true. If many will be saying Lord. Lord let me in I have prophesy and fed the homeless. But you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments; and they will walk with me in white, for they are worthy. 'He who overcomes will thus be clothed in white garments; and I will not erase his name from the book of life, and I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. Palms 69:28 Add iniquity to their iniquity, And may they not come into your righteousness. May they be blotted out of the book of life and may they not be recorded with the righteous. But I am afflicted and in pain; May your salvation, O God, set me securely on high. ‘Not being mark by evil but by mark by God. When we look into the markings this establish us when God separates the sheep from the goats. If you are a Christian your name is impossible to be blotted out of the book of life. Shepherds raise both sheep and goats. But the nature of sheep is very trusting. They are smart enough to know their names, and they know the shepherd's voice, and will come when called. They appear to trust the shepherd to have their best interest at heart. Goats are nasty, stinky little animals that are highly independent. They're skittish. But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. "All the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; and He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on the left. Goats have a polluted mindset that can enter the sheep pin.   Pollution starts we can contaminate people with harmful or poisonous substances called doubt fear and disbelief. In Old Testament times spotted animal was consider not to be touch. Worldly rather than spiritual. Is the state of being separate from religion, or not being exclusively allied with or against any particular religion? The term "messiah" is the translation of the Hebrew term masiah which is derived from the verb masah, meaning to smear or anoint. When objects such as wafers and shields were smeared with grease or oil they were said to be anointed hence the commonly used term was "anoint “which means to smear. However the smear of secular means that we are tainted by an ungodly world that must be cleanse by the anointed Jesus and accepting the Christ as our personal savior.  The term "messiah" is not used to refer to "anointed" objects that were designated and consecrated for specific cultic purposes but to persons only. Persons who were anointed had been elected, designated, appointed, given authority, qualified, and equipped for specific offices and tasks related to what they are anointed to do as God will them. When the concept of messiah is considered from a specifically biblical-theological perspective. The biblical idea of the messiah and his work is divinely revealed. It did not originate in human thought. While the act of anointing was not foreign to non-Israelites, the intent and consequences of the act are not found in no biblical documents. God made his intent and the consequences of the anointing act progressively known in the course of his self-revelation to humanity. A second question concerns the specific objects that were anointed and therefore had messianic significance. Not all anointing Acts had direct messianic significance. For example, anointing a shield (smearing it with oil) ( 2 Sam 1:21 ; Isa 21:5 ), while preparing and qualifying it for effective service, did not have messianic intentions; nor did men and women who anointed themselves for cleansing, beautifying, or preparing for participation in worship have messianic significance. Nor did the smearing or pouring of oil on wafers and cultic objects indicate a specific messianic purpose. What must be kept in mind, however, is that this anointing of shields, cultic objects, and men and women did convey ideas, such as qualification, beautification, and consecration, which are inherent in the anointing Acts and purposes that do have messianic significance. A further qualification to be kept in mind is that not all objects that had a messianic significance, for example, types of Jesus Christ the Messiah, his person and work, were anointed. Classic examples of this are the tabernacle, temple, and sacrifices.

Dragnet of Discouragement

The Dragnet of Discouragement
 

 The Dragnet of Discouragement a net that pulls you down into pondering waters as a switch in your mind at the same time light that changes your whole outlook darkness turns itself  into a beamed of  Gods marvelous illuminating light. The things that was dark has now spill into a brighter day. All your good days starts to outweigh your bad days you won’t complain. The definition of ponder is to carefully think about something. When it comes to the dragnet of discouragement we as Gods elect must step into the will our Heavenly Father and encourage many that  apparently came out from deep dark waters that clouded the very judgment of our thinking. Matthew 4:19 "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will send you out to fish for people." Not only must we have the armor of God as our equipment, but we must also know the fish we are trying to attract. Knowing the lost condition of the people around us will help us to understand that, no matter how good we are at fishing, we will never “catch” the fish on our own. It is not you nor is it I that convert the soul of a darkened mind, because “the god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God” It is the Spirit of the Living God that changes the lives and convert the soulless man into the Spirit man. But God can and frequently does penetrate the darkness with the glorious gospel, and He uses us to do it. He knows which “fish” are His; therefore, we are to seek His wisdom and His guidance by prayer and fasting’s. What I have come to find out God will use us to get glory out of us through whatever way He desire. Some He will use for fasting and some for prayer and some for both. However Prayer is essential. Lastly we must offer the only effective bait to catch fish and that is the gospel of Jesus Christ. To those who are perishing, the message of the cross is foolishness, but to us, it is the power of God. The gospel message has the power to change lives, shine light into darkness, and deliver evil men from hell. There is power in the name of Jesus to break every chain in no other message and no other “bait” can catch the fish of God. However before you pray or lay your hands on others inspect your life and search deep in your heart before you lay your hands or target people.” I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile”  Be also careful who you speak about it might be Gods elect, or prophet. John 7:24 Jesus says: “Do not judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” What Jesus does tell us is not to judge by our own opinions, but instead judge by the word of God, that is what it means to judge righteously. He always encouraged the people to judge. God told Israel to judge the prophets in the Old Testament. He had the true prophets judge the false but the people reacted saying the very same things people are saying today. Your being negative oh you never have anything good to say. In the New Testament we are told to judge prophecy, to discern, to test the spirits and we are told to test ALL things. We are told to do this because it helps keep us away from what is false and evil. The apostle Paul showed us how to judge so there would be no second guesswork. The apostle Paul said, “If anyone preaches another gospel let him be accursed” Would anyone say to Paul's face “you’re judging.” In 2 Thess. 3:14-15 “And if anyone does not obey our word in this epistle, note that person and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed. Yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.” Strong guidelines that many avoid to do today. These are done not to condemn but to bring repentance and restoration. Be warm that if you speak harmful words or discouraging words it shall come back and bite you and not the person you spoke about. Jesus also said “Beware of false prophets!” (Matthew 7:15) this is a warning but comes as a command from our Lord. But how could we “beware” of “false prophets” unless we test what they say? Instead of obeying what Jesus said, some actually ignore this and support them. How? By saying, “don't test it,” “don't touch God's anointed. “What is ironic is that to tell people they are judgmental is to judge them. What people are doing is recommending for us not to judge by the word of God, but dispense with any discernment, just like they do it. Some even threaten and curse those who test because they cannot deal with the Scriptural proof presented to them. Christians are not to threaten or curse others because they disagree. Neither should they be warning that they are going to prayer, as though God will answer their prayer of vengeance and avenge the persons teaching that was examined and found false. The facts more often than not are; those who say not to judge are incredibly more judgmental then those they accuse of judging. Ye shall know them by their fruits,” Christ said (Matthew 7:16). In judging their “fruits,” we must judge by God's Word. So what is fruit? Well to understand fruit we need to take a few steps backwards. The seed is the word of God, it is what gives us the new life. As it grows in us we mature until we become like a tree (Psalm 1), for a tree bears fruit. This was Jesus’ message to Peter and Andrew follow Me, learn of Me, know and understand My mission and My message. Only then will you be able to be fishers of men. If you can visualize how big your net that is how large the people in it you shall catch. A large fishing net equipped with a weighted bottom edge for touching (“dragging”) the river or lake bottom and a top with wooden floats allowing the net to be spread across the water . Such nets were normally let down from a boat and then drawn to shore by a crew positioned on the beach. In the case of a large catch the net was hauled to shore by boat  pictures the residents of Judah as helpless fish before the Babylonian army, pictured as the fishermen. Here the fishing nets and hooks symbolize the Babylonian military machinery. When Jesus said He would make us fishers of men to care therefore we have to be careful of what, how and when we speak to those that are caught in our nets. We will find out that it is very easy to lose fish.  When Jesus made us fishers of men we are to enlighten them again with hope and love making them fishers of men that follow Jesus. One day a man asked God. What is the difference between your love and our love? God smiled and said a bird in the sky is my love and a bird in a cage is your love. But what is this fullness? Is it not Himself? When God communicates Himself, when He fills us with Himself, He is filling us with His Divine Life, with His infinite Love, for He is Love.  Our approach to making people fishers of men depend on how we handle the Word of God and the gentleness of the Word that are spoken in a sense of truth and in the knowledge and intimacy of knowing who God is for yourself.  Searching for hope only to find that people will hurt you and some leave you behind.  We serve a God that heals the broken hearted and attracts Himself to the contrite heart. We must look on  the other hand it is the system used when apprehending once criminal suspects in our nets now caught to learn that there way was taken them the wrong way. But Jesus is the way the truth and life. There no longer criminals, suspects or accuse. Now free to fly like the birds in the sky, never to die shall live and not die.  However when we think about the Dragnet of discouragement as Christians. We have to keep in mind God desires and hunger for all His children to come to the full knowledge of Christ Jesus to leave no man behind. 2 Peter 3:9   But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day. The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. Many sit in a delusion of discourage and are depriving themselves from the splendor of having God love in their life. Which gives us this wonderful feeling the love of God tender heart and His mercies.  God’s love gives us  hope and  confidence that all comes from the Spirit of the living God who longs for us to developed our  minds knowing that earth shall past put God  love remains and stays the same. He is unchanging at all times He never fail us leaves nor forsake us. If we continue to dishearten or act in such a disheartened way is a kind of price we have to pay because we can’t have our way.  After we had a glimpse at the heavens now and then just as the children of Israel seen and sin,  yet many continue to have this dishearten heart that would not allow them to enter the promise land when they knock and say Lord Lord let me in. I have fed the poor, visit the sick however you walked in the Spirit man. Walk in the Spirit do not fulfill the lust of the flesh. Through it all they knew it was not the Spirit man that made them fall. One thing we must arrest and yes we detest the we address repent the Lords supper we must show men we are His disciples and act in. It is the Lord who fashion us in His likeness.  This is His battle not ours ages have past and centuries have been defeat. Everything now different because of our King of King this is His battle it belongs to our king.  Everything is different since the shepherd-king poured out his heart on us in sweet melody. Yet what He felt is so like ours just like yesterday and today he is the same He will never change.  We are so apt to think we fight alone when our King sits beside God on the throne. We are so prone to think there never was a life so weak, so ragged, and so full of a dull gnawing, as ours. We are so ready to believe that we have suffered more than any heart that ever loved us so deep to the very core it was really true and sweet. And then God opens up the heart of David, and we see his failures and we hear his cries, and the sense of loneliness at least is gone.  It’s His wife who loves in not like the one in the story she was carney. He prayed as we have prayed this love for him it is true. He fell as we have fallen. He rose and started again as we have done. He was disheartened, as alone as a man. Then God found Him step in and gave Him someone and love Him brought Him back to life again pull him up just like you and I we live again.  The Dragnet", then, reinforces the spiritual truths taught in "The Parable of the Wheat and Tares", especially those relating to the coming judgment and condemnation of the wicked. That Jesus would emphasize the judgment and condemnation of the wicked in this parable ought to impress upon us that the "good news" of the kingdom of heaven also contains "bad news" for those who reject Jesus Christ Romans 3:21-26. "But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus" (Romans 3:21-26 2 Corinthians 5:3 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. It is finish and now and He the devil is finish. Since this parable focuses on the "destiny" of the wicked, this might be a good time to review what Jesus Himself taught on the subject. The text is not evidence that ancient fishermen sacrificed to their nets or that the Babylonian sacrificed to their weapons of war. Rather the text points to the worship of military might. Jesus compared the kingdom of God to a dragnet, containing both good and bad fish until the time of separation and judgment . As with "The Parable Of The Wheat And The Tares", Jesus explains what this parable means The kingdom of heaven, in its present state, will be a mixture of good and bad 1) Just like a dragnet gathers in both good and bad fish 2) We saw in "The Parable Of The Wheat And Tares" that this will be due to the influence of Satan, such that there will be those "that offend, and those who practice. Lawlessness" Paul wrote that in "a great house" (i.e., the church) some vessels are "for honor and some for dishonor." But in the future there will be a separation.   It will occur "at the end of the age" The agents of this separation will be the "angels. Look at your prolong circumstances to God and look beyond it through the measure of faith God gave you to move it out of your way.  You’ll discover the real hope and better future that Gods has promises us. It does not matter what people think of you. People will ostracize  you ridicule you intimidate you and nine times out of ten it’s the people in the church. Paul Pray it’s what God see in your heart.   God already knows how discouraged you feel, but He wants you to talk to Him about your feelings and listen for how His Spirit guides you.  Honestly vent your frustration to God and keep in mind that He cares about what you're going through.  Ask God to open your eyes spiritually so you'll be able to see your circumstances from His perspective.  Pray for deliverance from circumstances that aren't God's will, and perseverance to empower you to endure circumstances that are His will until you learn all you're supposed to learn from them. Remember Who God is.  Shift your focus from your discouraging circumstances to God Himself.  Remember that He is love, and also that He is all-powerful.  Trust that God will help you because that's consistent with His character.

The Chill of Loneliness



The Chill of Loneliness when dealing with Christians results from our walk with God that will give us a chill. Penetrating coldness is really great an awesome experience meaning that your will drift towards God or to ungodly world. We live in an ungodly world however our Christian walk is very important because it has such an impact on others in our circle it will bring a chill up and down your spine that cause awaking and quaking in the spirit man.  People don’t realize why there is often a sudden quack in our spirit. It is the realization of the Spirit man agreeing with the Spirit of the living God. And conformation occurs. The Christian lives in a glass house for many to see and often ostracized and criticize. Our character is often assassinated by others who walk according to their flesh. Our walk should never take us away from the fellowship of Christians in that of an unregenerate world. Our God-given instincts are innate in us as we cry out for companionship for our God. We feel a need and longings for Jesus in our lives as his aspirations and the absorption in the love of Christ dwells in us. He is the air we bereave oxygen the very breath we intake in our lungs God has control over we have the choice to live or die. The chill of loneliness is really amazing in a world of 6 billion people that loneliness can be so pandemic. There is no way to cover every emotional frustration of chilling with something as complex as our problems our emotions which can become a we tend to cover every facet of our being that loneliness will cause the stillness of the night to take flight and leaving you and I chilled under the covers with the very person that keeps us in the bondage in the stillness of the night.  This has cause many to abort the very movement of God desire to bring us higher in Him. God is looking for solders who can stand on His Word when adversity is staring us in our face.  We are looking for something’s to keep us from not feeling lonely. Now we have allow loneliness to become a stronghold our eyes are blind and dull in seeing what is not really there. It is at this point we can’t seem to see the forests before the trees surrounding us and now it has become a stronghold in our lives. Have you ever date someone and years later you look at them and ask yourself how I could have dated that person. It is the same person however your sense of awareness now at a later date is brighter and your eyes are open to see who they really are. Being lonely can often blind you making you believe the image that you’re looking at is that person your been seeking to fulfill your life. When Jesus was there all the time with His stretch out arms inviting you to come, the reality is what you desire was just an illusion from you being lonely.  This is a stronghold if we study the word and allow Jesus to be the lover of our soul truly loneliness could not vent in your vineyard there would be no room for it to grow. 2 Corinthians 10:4, "(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds ;) We must diffuse this time bomb in our lives. A great place to diffuse the bomb is within his center of our life experiences that has forced itself in our lives many of us who are called by God in a season to walk alone spending time with Him. The unsatisfied longings of the prophets for human understanding caused them to cry out in their complaint, and even our Lord Himself suffered in the same way. Many prophets live a life of loneliness. Loneliness! Just the sound of that word has a ring of despondency to it. It is defined as “sadness from being alone”; “bleakness and desolation”; and to be or feel “cut off from others.” Loneliness is the pain of emotional and social isolation. The man [or woman] who has passed on into the divine Presence in actual inner experience will not find many who understand him. He finds few who care to talk about that which is the supreme object of his interest, so he is often silent and preoccupied in the midst of noisy religious shoptalk. For this he earns the reputation of being dull and over-serious, so he is avoided and the gulf between him and society widens. He searches for friends upon whose garments he can detect the smell of myrrh and aloes and cassia out of the ivory palaces, and finding few or none he, like Mary of old, keeps these things in his heart. It is this very loneliness that throws him back upon God. The Major Prophets were men divinely designated to be spokesmen for God. Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations, Ezekiel, and Daniel make up the books of the Old Testament that are in this category. Four of the five books are named for the men whose messages are written. They were called watchmen, messengers of God, prophets, or foretellers. They stood alongside the priests of their day. Their messages, which gave insight into God’s will and plan, were predictive and sometimes given as exhortations (a call or invitation, comforting). Their writings were encouraging and challenging, but also at times, served as warnings. God is more concerned with the messenger than the message? God is more concerned that we embody the message than that we preserve our reputation. While men think it is the reputation to keep the congregation flowing in numbers than the message.   Prophets must be full of the power of the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit, a prophet cannot function and will be just a babbling voice. The scriptures are clear that prophets must have the Spirit of God upon them. The Christian prophet, like all Christians, has absolutely no power in himself. All that he accomplishes must be done by the Holy Spirit's power. To the extent that he neglects this fact, he will fail. Old Testament prophets were men of discipline, wisdom, counsel and insight, not of wild ecstasy Prophets today are trained primarily by the Lord Jesus Christ himself through His Holy Spirit. Their training is as much in life as in the classroom. Consequently when we speak of a school for prophets, we mean only that kind of training ground which can prepare the church as a whole to understand and nurture the budding prophets in its midst. The Holy Spirit is the master teacher, raising His prophesy. The prophet should be careful to walk in the Spirit all the time. He is to pray constantly. This often means silent prayer in tongues. There must be radical pursuit of Jesus to get the pure word of the Lord. Mature prophets are so in love with Jesus and submitted to His Lordship, that they are willing to see the word come back into His hand after receiving it. They won't care whether it is used or simply poured out on the ground (not used) as an offering to the Lord. Words received and given from such a heart of obedience give more life and blessing than those presumptuously spoken. Do not despair because of their apparent disqualifications. None of them will shut you out from thee the accents of the voice of the God. Notwithstanding all, the Word of the Lord shall come to you; not for your sake alone, but for those to whom you shall be sent. The one thing that God demands of you is absolute consecration to his purpose and willingness to go on any errand on which he may send you. Therefore this is what the Lord says: "If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me; if you utter worthy, not worthless, words, you will be my spokesman. Let this people turn to you, but you must not turn to them. I will make you a wall to this people, a fortified wall of bronze; they will fight against you but will not overcome you, for I am with you to rescue and save you," declares the Lord (Jeremiah 15:19, 20). All prophets will meet with opposition. Jeremiah is an example of a prophet who was treated cruelly. Sometimes the most intense opposition comes from the people who know the prophet well. Jeremiah was warned not to trust his own family. Jeremiah 12:5, 6 all the prophets encounter opposition, but one of the marks of the true prophet was fortitude with which he met the opposition and the tenacity with which he continued to proclaim the message. Each of the prophets displayed the quality of total commitment to the ministry to which he was called. There was no turning back or weakening. Once the prophet had embarked upon his public ministry he was marked out as a man of God. His loyalty was to God alone whatever the consequences. Each of the prophets was driven by a kind of inner compulsion to fulfil whatever task was given regardless of the danger of or personal suffering that may result. Jeremiah is probably the best example of the prophet who could not be silenced or induced to vary the message despite threats, abuse, and physical violence. An important part of the prophet’s task is unceasing prayer for the Christian Community. The prophets, because they knew what the mind of the Lord was, were in a position to pray more effectually than other men. They had a clearer picture of what God was doing and so they knew when prayer was needed most. They were also able to pray true 'prophetic prayers' in which the Holy Spirit directed and guided their very manner and words (Isa 62:6) Prophecy and Prayer).Prayer belongs in a very high and important sense to the prophetic ministry. Praying prophets have frequently been at a premium in the history of Gods people. God's watchmen must always and everywhere be men of prayer. Praying preachers are the true prophets of the Lord, and are they who stand as mouth pieces of God to a generation of wicked and worldly-minded men and women. They are the boldest and truest, and swiftest ministers of God
