Leap of Faith

Trusting God is a lifelong journey. Don’t travel alone.

A Devotional Moment

2Chronicles 32:7

Be strong and courageous, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is with him: for there be more with us than with him:

 

2Chronicles 32:8  With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.

 

Easier said than done. However, When someone tells you to trust God, they are acknowledging  his power based on experience.

 

That multitude of flesh in the Assyrian army was about to come face to face with the power of God. Hezekiah’s faith in God did not waver and he encouraged his people to trust God.

 

We allow people, to stress us out and create fear within us. Not everyone knows that prayer works. You may  be the one person who can convince them that it does work. Be a witness of what God has done for you.

 

Flesh holds no power over God. These are scary times that surround us. Be encouraged and stay prayed up, maintain your faith in God.

 

The battles we face can be detrimental, but GOD! When we have him on our side, he alone is more with us, than any battle against us. God Bless.

THE ROOT

         A Study of the Word

 

                                                                 “Personal Account”

 

Mat 12:36  But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

 

Idle:  habitually doing nothing or avoiding work; lazy.

  • of no real worth, importance, or significance:

 

Idle word:

a word that produces no good effect, and is not calculated to produce any.

 

We have checking accounts and saving accounts. It is a good thing to deposit money in those. But there are other accounts that we don’t think about. Accounts that have an automatic deposit based on our behavior and words. Our bank account is one that we want to have money in.

This personal account, we want to remain clear of anything that is in opposition to the word of God,

 

There are books the angels record these accounts in. Our name is recorded in the book of life.  Which is The ultimate goal, get it there, and once there, that it remain in place.

 

Judgment Before the Great White Throne

Rev 20:11  And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

Rev 20:12  And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

Rev 20:13  And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

Rev 20:14  And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

Rev 20:15  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

 

Each time you speak words of criticism,  hate, or disrespect, you are depositing those words into your personal account. We will give account or explanation of conduct to a superior, spiritually, that is God almighty someday.

 

When a person is called to account it 

  • to hold accountable; for some thing that they have been blamed for or called to account for a reprimand.

  • give a good /bad account of,

to do something related to conduct to man, such as an employer is one thing, giving account to God is totally different.  Every idle word spoken….

 

Mat 12:37  For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

 

Justify:

to show (an act, claim, statement, etc.) to be just or right

to declare innocent or guiltless; absolve; acquit

 

Condemn:

to express an unfavorable or adverse judgment on; 

indicate strong disapproval of

to pronounce to be guilty; sentence to punishment
 

  • to give grounds or reason for convicting 
     

  • to judge or pronounce to be unfit for use or service

  • We know old buildings are condemned because they are damaged and are not structurally sound. To fit for service.

  • For people, We don’t want to fall into this category because it can lead to doom. eternal punishment in hell.

Our words will either, be righteous or condemned. Let  us choose our words wisely.

Humans like to believe God is love, God knows my heart so all is well. God knows your heart. He knows that you have not served him in spirit and truth, he knows the truth behind your comments, your words, and he knows that you have not kept him forefront in  your life. If he was forefront in your life, you would seek his will, not your own.

 

If he was forefront in your life, No matter how bad you want something, you would not compromise your relationship with God or your soul to have it. When we say God knows my heart, it means we are doing what we want and looking for a free pass from God. 

 

We try to justify it by saying :

He knows I believe in him, 

I pray when I am need, or in a crisis, 

Those are the things we say, but he sees and knows 👇🏽

 

Unless there is something we want or unless a crisis has occurred,  we don’t pray.

We say;

Because God knows my heart, he knows I am a good person, I mind my business and don’t bother anyone.  But God Knowles those who know his word, and those who don’t 

How much of what he tells us in his word are you practicing? It not just minding your business and not bothering anyone.

 

What do you believe about God? 

Just allow those questions to sink in, God knows your heart, and knows that you know right from wrong, but choose to do wrong. Learning to tame the tongue is only a fraction of what we must do to keep our personal account free and clear of debris- which is sin we commit but don’t think about. Our behavior,  how we treat others,  we make deposits through out the day, and don’t realize it. 

 

James 3:2-6 NLT

[2] Indeed, we all make many mistakes. For if we could control our tongues, we would be perfect and could also control ourselves in every other way. 

 

3] We can make a large horse go wherever we want by means of a small bit in its mouth. 

 

4] And a small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong. 

 

5] In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire.

 

6] And among all the parts of the body, the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself.

 

Think before you speak. In fact, check your thoughts before they have time to form words on your tongue. And  be careful how you treat others. None of it gets past the Lord.

James 3:10-16 

[10] And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right! 

 

James3:11] Does a spring of water bubble out with both fresh water and bitter water? 

 

James 3:12 Does a fig tree produce olives, or a grapevine produce figs? No, and you can't draw fresh water from a salty spring. 

 

James3:13] If you are wise and understand God's ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom. 

 

James 3:14] But if you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish ambition in your heart, don't cover up the truth with boasting and lying. 

 

James 3:15] For jealousy and selfishness are not God's kind of wisdom. Such things are earthly, unspiritual, and demonic. 

 

James 3:16] For wherever there is jealousy and selfish ambition, there you will find disorder and evil of every kind.

Don’t be a mirror image of your adversary, 

You match the way others treat you with the same treatment.

 

If they hate you, you hate them, they oppress you, you oppress them, they are racially biased against you, you are racially biased against them. This solves nothing. They  are door openers that start arguments. Heated words take each you out of character. If you are careful, it will turn physical. People lose their lives over arguments.

 

We all have some kind of flaw in character, or personality that needs worked on, or repented of. Don’t allow them to be barriers in your relationship with God. If we ignore them, they will keep us from where we need to be in our faith walk with God. Part of that faith walk is the subject matter we are discussing today.

 

As a person to be well rounded in bidy, mind, spirit.  And soul. We have to give attention to each, checking them with the word of God to ensure we are in alignment with him and walking right, the way his desires for us. Walking through the gates of heaven. If we want to make it in we are going to need to be right with God. 

 

Rev 21:27  And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of 

life. 

 

If you die suddenly you will not be able to make wrongs right.

 

Rom 14:12  So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

 

My closing prayer:

 

Lord as I stand before you in humility, I pray for all of us who will give ear. That they will be aware and pray for guidance regarding their thoughts, and words.

 

Our words not only hurt and cause damage to people and relationships, they are deadly to the person speaking them. Let us not taint our walk with you with words that are better left unsaid.

 

I pray that we ask for your forgiveness for idle words, Filthy curse words, And may you convict us of continued use of them. 

 

Guide us through the cleansing process of keeping them out of our mouth and May we gaurd our thoughts before they become words on our tongues. In the name of Jesus, amen.

A Pouring Out of Living Water

John 4:14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst;

but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. 

 

Living water is the eternal flow of God's spirit. He says he is the fountain of living water in

 

Jeremiah 2:13 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

 

Jeremiah 17:13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters.

​John 7:37 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

 

​Thirst: a sensation of dryness in the mouth and throat caused by need of liquid.The physical condition resulting from this need, strong or eager desire; craving: That strong, eager desire can occur in the physical for need of liquid to quench our thirst. It is also a spiritual need that needs quenching in our spirit.Drink: take in liquid, consume Receive the spirit of God, he is the source, fountain of eternal life-living water.

 

John 4:10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

 

Revelation 21:6 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.Water: Water is Liquid, transparent in color, odorless and makes up lakes, rivers, oceans. Consider the movement of water- it flows, it can flow gently or in the movement of waves.  

 

The focus is not the liquid, but the movement of the liquid water- it can flow gently or in movement of waves. It’s the movement.

Described as the flow or movement of waves, the flow of the spirit of God within you is felt physically in the body as your spirit is filled up with him.

 

Revelation 22:17 17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. ​​Drink: take in liquid, consume.Receive the spirit of God, he is the source, fountain of eternal life-living water

 

John 4:10  Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

 

Revelation 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

 

Revelation 22:17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

 

This living water comes from God. He is the source, the fountain, It is for you, me, and anyone who desires to have him in our lives. when you invite him in your heart and life, he will come.​He makes it available because it is his desire that no one perish. As it states in John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. ​                                 

 Invitation to meet Christ our Lord

 

For anyone reading this who has not asked the Lord Jesus into your heart

This is your opportunity. Ask him into your heart and life, confess your sins to him, ask his forgiveness. Make every effort from this day forward to turn away from sin. This is the act of repentance.  God will meet you where you are.  

 

If you are in the midst of sin; treat your vessel (body) wrong using substances that alter your mind, emotions, and behavior, you are in sexual immorality, corruption, or any combination of these or other forms of sin. Don’t put it off, as we are not promised tomorrow.                                                              

Come as you are. Listen, you weren’t feeling ashamed or embarrassed while you werecommitting the act, don’t allow those hindering spirits to stop you now.

 

Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

Matthew 7:8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.

 

Whatever the sin, you and God have always been present during those times. It is you and him now, alone together as you read this. He stands with open arms.

 

John 7:3 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.                                John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.   ​
