The Path of the Wicked!

 Do you rulers indeed speak justly? Do you judge people with equity? No, in your heart you devise injustice, and your hands mete out violence on the earth. Even from birth the wicked go astray; from the womb they are wayward, spreading lies. Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like that of a cobra that has stopped its ears, that will not heed the tune of the charmer, however skillful the enchanter may be. Break the teeth in their mouths, O God; LORD, tear out the fangs of those lions! Let them vanish like water that flows away; when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short. May they be like a slug that melts away as it moves along, like a stillborn child that never sees the sun. Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns— whether they be green or dry—the wicked will be swept away. The righteous will be glad when they are avenged, when they dip their feet in the blood of the wicked. Then people will say, “Surely the righteous still are rewarded; surely there is a God who judges the earth.” Psalm 58:1-11 NIV

POLITICS ALERT!

When a person is a sore loser, they snatch at any straw they can find in an attempt to redeem themselves--from falsely promoting an election that is rigged against them to deliberately deceiving the masses by promoting untruths.

Not many people may think about who alerted the media about the letter Director Comey sent to the Republican chairs and the ranking Democrats about the possibility of having pertinent information regarding emails--"connected" to Hillary Clinton's aide. In fact, the director himself provided a misleading missive to those he sent the letter, which was later explained, but too little--too late to keep truth in the forefront. So, the letter had to transmitted to the media by those who sought to re-ignite the embers of a campaign that was burning out with more lies--and the Republicans had more to gain from this information than the Democrats so I'm guessing--the Republicans are responsible for the misinformation promoted.

With a flailing campaign and low poll numbers, the great Deceiver pounced on the breaking news with his own breaking announcement--not waiting for details--but giddy with the idea that his frenzied crowd would be elated and they were with chants of "lock her up" before they knew it wasn't about Hillary. But does that matter in the greater scheme of things with a deceiver? No--mission is accomplished--the die has been cast and the roars of the lion--drowning out truth.

The saddest part of this whole situation is that not one person seems to understand how deliberately this information was handled--designed to create more distrust of Hillary because the other candidate hates to lose. He has gone from cries of "foul play" to igniting insurrection by his followers and on more than one occasion has encouraged others to "take her out." One man has already "inferred" that since he is a patriot, if Hillary wins, he will kill her. That's how dangerous this candidate is--in promoting that kind of hatred in this country, in which no dictator reigns.

How anyone can continue to believe that this character--who falsely claims any knowledge of God, and we can see it in his actions--is beyond me. He is a con man of the foulest magnitude! Supporting him as president of the United States is inviting poison to spread throughout the country and watching it seep into the core of the earth.

Fortunately, for those of us who know Truth and Trust God--his endeavors will not get far, for the righteous know how to pray and expect God to act on behalf of those who truly love Him. No weapon--especially not the lies promoted by hatred--will prosper against those who love The Lord and seek to please Him, only.

A half-truth (cherry-picking details) is a whole lie! And we know where liars will end up for their eternity has already been prepared for them.

"By the end of a day that brought stinging criticism of Mr. Comey from both Democrats and Republicans, he appeared on the defensive, saying in an internal email to bureau employees that he had felt obligated to inform Congress, and “we don’t know the significance of this newly discovered collection of emails.’’NYT

Lies and Liars Exposed (Part II)

A “natural perspective” can be understood as well for those who “have a right relationship with God” and know His purpose for creating mankind from the beginning. It is obvious—from those proclaiming that same-sex marriage does not offend God that they have no relationship with God. What they may have is a religious spirit that is guided by Satan and they have been blinded to the Truth.

The Truth—Jesus Christ—clearly said (when speaking to the woman supposedly caught in adultery) to go and “sin no more.” He did not say—don’t commit adultery any more. He used the term sin to be inclusive of all sin—not just one or two. When we have a right relationship with God, we can rightly discern understanding from His Word by seeking Him and hearing Him. Admittedly, one needs to be willing to hear what God says and many are not, because they do not want to hear what God says. It would infringe upon their quests to fulfill the lusts of their flesh.

To be perfectly clear—those who say same sex marriage is okay in the eyes of God—do not know God or understand His Word. They have been deceived by the one who is a master of deception. He has deceived mankind for a long time and it looks as if he’s not finished yet. When will he be finished? When mankind is destroyed and ceases to exist.

True Christians—know we are to love unconditionally—and I do love unconditionally. I love so much that I am constantly praying for those who are out of fellowship with God to seek Him, while He may be found. I pray that they will be willing to receive God’s love to the degree that it overflows and shatter the scales of deceit so they may see, truth clearly and learn to live a godly life. I pray that they will understand the difference between having a relationship with God and simply being religious. I pray that the enemy’s hold on them will be broken, so they will know true freedom to love (without lust) all of mankind. I pray they will get an understanding of love—brotherly (rea), and the God kind of love (agape) that keeps us all in relationship with Him, and in the love between a man and woman (erotica) that should result in a God-anointed relationship.

There will come a time when God will hold all of those who have been in positions of authority, leadership and in the spotlight (celebrities) accountable for misusing His Word and causing the masses to be deceived, leading them in error.  

Of course—copious examples of Satan’s influence can be found in the writings of many—and many are listed on the Internet:

But after Alfred Kinsey published his famous book, Sexual Behavior in the Human Male in 1948, a few writers began to take a second look at the relationship between David and Jonathan. While still much in the minority, these writers have been able to influence the way that some people read and interpret the text:

David Mace (Hebrew Marriage, 1953) Wrote that the relationship was an example of “the comparatively harmless homosexual attachments of adolescence”

George Henry (1955)
Wrote that David and Jonathan were homosexual lovers, although he apparently realized that the Biblical evidence of later wives and children speaks against this possibility, so he maintained that their homosexuality was only a passing phase

Of course what one must remember is this: anyone can say anything they want in a book and attempt to make it a truth. Only God’s truth will stand the test of time and all the works of man that were not built on the foundation of God’s Word—will be burned and destroyed.

Even though there are those who believe that the “Bible is just a book,” those who have a relationship with God know that the Bible is not just a book. Relationship with God brings understanding of God and by God—not just the words in a book. I believe God because of my relationship with Him, not because I read a “book” as many will attempt to assert.

My motivation—to see that everyone is in position to receive God’s best for their lives right here on earth. The only way we can receive anything from God is to live according to His Word—not our feelings.  Of course the carnal nature cannot understand the spiritual nature because they are polar opposites. I’d rather have the relationship with God guiding me through all things than allowing my flesh to dictate anything. It is a matter of choice and I choose Him!

Overcome Denial!

When we think about how words are used, what do we learn?

Words have power--which is why we should be careful how we use them.  Just for a moment, I would ask you to think about "de" and how the enemy uses words to keep us in his power.

The DEvil attempts to keep us DEfeated by convincing us that all the negative things we go through are all we are going to have in our lives.  The devil convincingly DEceives us into believing lies and connives to keep us DEpressed and oppressed by his DEceptions so some of us get to a place where we DEny our beliefs and our feelings about just about anything.

It is with this power of DEnial that he keeps us from being DELIVERED from everything that would keep us out of position from being blessed by God.  The unbelievers "deny" God's existence and therefore they can deny any need to obey His Word.  The enemy will influence our denial into believing our challenges don't exist and we do nothing to overcome them.  They do exist! They do exist and we must own them and then overcome!  Our DEliverance comes when we acknowledge the challenges and then allow God to guide us--so we can overcome and rejoice.

This day, don't let the devil defeat you with depression or denial with his deceptions.  Own who you are, what you are and overcome whatever challenges come before you with a testimony about how good God is!  Our hope is in Christ Jesus and we can and should shout that from the roof tops!
