There is NO Justice without Judgement!
Hello Beautiful People and Others! How have things been going your way? I hope you can say that things have been well despite the crazy things going on in this world today. I pray that you are able to keep the faith and stand strong.
We as a nation are in desperate need of justice on many fronts. We definitely need a cleansing in this nation but not necessarily in the way that the cleansing has been currently orchestrated in the United States. It seems that everyone who needs to be removed or locked up has escaped the full judgement they so rightfully deserve.
It is amazing how people desire justice to be served but hate the judgment that comes with it. See justice within itself embodies judgement. When we look at the word justice in the Strongs Concordance judgement is a word attached to it. There is no justice without judgement! Typically, in the courts there is a separation between the parties that are being brought to trial and evidence brought forth to the judge. After both parties have presented their case, a judgement is made in order for there to be justice brought forth in the trial.
As believers we often get caught up on God being a God of Peace and Love because that is what we love to rest in. I know I thoroughly enjoy my peace. How about you? However, God is also a God who enjoys judgement. When we look in the Old Testament we see so many examples of the judgement that God brought to different communities in that timeframe. When we look at how the world is today, we are sadly not far off from our own judgments coming to pass. So many things that God detest have been taking place for quite some time now and he is sure to return at any moment. There are some people who chose to carry on in this world as if they have all day to get their hearts, minds and spirits together but that is not the case.
We want freedom from the oppression that is being cast upon us slowly but surely but there are so many people who continue to scream “Only God can Judge me.” Completely dismissing the fact that when God does send judgement, he first sends either his prophet, angel or witnesses to administer his judgment. Stay sleep if you want to, but if you know, you know. Are you truly prepared to receive the justice you desire? I’d do a heart inspection and double check because there is no justice without judgement.
Stay vigilant. Stay prayed up. Stay ready.
Love ya, later!
More and Mightier than “THEM”
Hello, Bonjour, Que Pasa! How’s it going good people and others?
Have you ever noticed that your oppressors always use the same tactics to keep you in bondage and fear? Whew! Could I dive into some personal experiences on this topic but I’m going to keep it Bible for you today. I’ll share some personal L’s on this subject at a later time; maybe. Gone head and grab your bibles and turn to the book of Exodus. Let’s dive in!
In the book of Exodus 1:7-11, we see the story of Israel in Egypt told. Jacob and his generation had passed, and the children of Israel had grown numerously; taking over the entirety of the region. Eventually a new king comes on the scene in Egypt and is intimidated by the size of Israel. He begins to converse with his people (the Egyptians) and informs them that there needs to be something done about the Israelites. He begins to plot how they can wisely “contain” and '“get rid” of the Israelites.
Quick question: Do you know your enemies have sized you up? My apologies, I stated I had a quick question, but truthfully, I have a few. Do you realize that the size of your community intimidates your oppressors? Do you know your oppressor is currently plotting to take you out and to intentionally afflict you with burdens just to keep you in line? Do you know your oppressor is concerned that you will realize the magnitude of power that you possess as a community to upset their kingdom?
I’m sure some of you do. Yet, there are others who have yet to truly see that the power is truly in the hands of the Israelites. The 12 tribes standing together on business for the Kingdom of Jesus Christ.
See the new king knew that the plans he conspired against the Israelites had to be implemented wisely. He knew that strategy was the best way to control his chances on keeping the Israelites in line. When we look at verse 10 it states, “Come on, let us deal wisely with them.” Your oppressor knows that you are intelligent. So much so that they know to deal with you wisely. The rest of verse 10 goes on to state “lest they multiply, and it come to pass, that, when there falleth out any war, they join also unto our enemies, and fight against us, and so get them up out the land.”
In verse 10 the new king was concerned about a few things. Let’s highlight them.
Awareness. He knew he needed strategy to keep the Israelites distracted from the truth.
The size. He knew that the Israelites outnumbered them.
War/Wakeup. He feared the Israelites waking up to turn on them during a time of war.
Removing the Israelites from the land.
When we look at the world today…is there much unity in the land amongst the Israelites? Or has there been a strategy put in place against us to keep us burdened down and distracted? Let me make some of the burdens and distractions clear to you below:
Celebrity drama
Financial stressors
Political drama
Overworked and Underpaid
Lack of Rest
Could you imagine a world where you were absent of these things and able to live out the fullness of life that God has intended for us? In the land he has intended for us. See the Egyptians didn’t want the Israelites to necessarily leave the land. They wanted to control the Israelites within the land. They wanted to keep the Israelites blind, def and dumb to the plays that were being executed to their detriment. In Exodus 1:9 it states, “And he said unto his people, Behold, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we.” Your enemy knows you are mightier! Your enemy knows that if you ever wake up to the schemes, they have concocted to keep you burdened and in bondage that you will rise to leave Egypt.
The oppressors’ (the enemy) tactics haven’t changed. They want to distract you with burdens. To control where you put your focus. To never realize your true power against them. To afflict you. To stay within their control.
Children of Israel. Children of Jesus Christ. We are more and mightier than them!
Love ya later.
What are you Using to Obtain a Good Report?
Hello, Bonjour, Que Pasa! How are you doing good people and others? Pray all is going smoothly for you.
Have any of you ever considered how we go about obtaining a “good report” with the father? I know many of us can easily and quickly determine how we obtain a good report from man; do well in school, stay out of jail, make good money while working a good job, be a present and active parent, blah, blah, blah! All of these things will grant us favor among man yet, none of these things are necessary to obtain a good report from Christ. Jesus Christ.
In order to obtain a good report we need FAITH!
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1) In Hebrews 11:2 it states that the elders obtained a good report by faith. Its exact words are “For by it the elders obtained a good report.” The it being faith. What is it that you find yourself believing in? Is it providing peace for you? Is it covering you? Has it renewed your mind in a positive way? Has it fortified you?
There are Heroes of Faith listed throughout the word of God in Hebrews 11 some of them didn’t even receive the promises, yet they continued to fight the good fight of faith. There are others listed in the word who were able to receive the promises of God. Where will you find yourself in the good fight of faith? Will you endure until the end whether you receive the promise or not?
“Without faith it is impossible to please him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” (Hebrews 11:6)
In these times throughout the world please do not get caught up on being pleasing to man. The children of God need to do their best to obtain a good report with Jesus Christ, our Father. He is who gives us a good report. Man cannot. Remember people of God, we must fight the good fight of faith.
Stand strong. Endure till the end!
Love ya Later.
