#SpiritEyes #SeeliketheFather

"But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the LORD sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart.” 1 Samuel 16:7

"And they came to Bethsaida. And some people brought to him a blind man and begged him to touch him. And he took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village, and when he had spit on his eyes and laid his hands on him, he asked him, “Do you see anything?”

And he looked up and said, “I see people, but they look like trees, walking.”

Then Jesus laid his hands on his eyes again; and he opened his eyes, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly. And he sent him to his home, saying, “Do not even enter the village.”” Mark 8:22-26

"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." Genesis 1:27

"“I kept looking
Until thrones were set up,
And the Ancient of Days took His seat;
His vesture was like white snow
And the hair of His head like pure wool.
His throne was ablaze with flames,
Its wheels were a burning fire.

“A river of fire was flowing
And coming out from before Him;
Thousands upon thousands were attending Him,
And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him;
The court sat,
And the books were opened.

“Then I kept looking because of the sound of the boastful words which the horn was speaking; I kept looking until the beast was slain, and its body was destroyed and given to the burning fire. “As for the rest of the beasts, their dominion was taken away, but an extension of life was granted to them for an appointed period of time." Daniel 7:9-12

Fasting
Tongues
Study of the Word
Prayer life
Operating in the Gifts
Participation in Body life
Evangelism"

This is GOOD. Be able to measure and identify your own maturity (Galatians 6:1-10). Just because no one tells you, doesn't mean it isn't there! It may mean, you are head and shoulders above where they can't see!

I don't typically do this but my brother Harrison Ayintete is doing awesome things in Africa to spread the gospel in Spirit and Truth! He is sound in His Doctrine and on fire for the Lord! Because He preaches Truth in Love, it is not as well funded as other churches that are not speaking at a deeper level of Truth and Love! I know He is a humble servant for the Lord and the Spirit is moving over there! They are suffering much persecution from other churches!

A link to check out their Church in Akure, Nigeria, Africa!

The Refinery Church – Products of Love

If you feel led to support this Church they would appreciate the financial support! They have been praying hard for financial blessing to further the Gospel! Right now they only need 200$ USD. If you feel led to bless them, here is a link. We can help the humble Church overcome the proud churches! Please join me to bless them.

Young person,

Humility. The TIP that SANK the TITANIC was the tip of a COLOSSAL iceberg. In the same way, humility TRIUMPHS over PRIDE in the END.

Pride wins the battle, but loses the war.

See David and Goliath. (1 Samuel 17.)

Please do not mistake pride with confidence. Be bold!

Evil spirits/Demons will not manifest or submit if you're being docile/timid/compromising. That's what empowers them to remain...2 Corinthians 10:3-6. Go into the coven of mediums/psychics/yoga practitioners (a few examples) and wage war, and free the captives! Wise as serpents and harmless as doves!

Do not underestimate the power of God's presence. He does not need you to be physically present after you have come to cast out demons. Spiritual victories! Those places will close down later without your help. God will empower you, if your will is aligned with HIS WILL (sphere of influence).

Believers CANNOT be POSSESSED by demons, ALL other people are VULNERABLE to them. Possession is not the same as OPPRESSION. Be Fearless. Renew your mind (Romans 12:1-8) to understand God's will and ALL of what LOVE encompasses. Without a renewed mind, they are simply everyday folk, making a living. Hiding.

They may not be comfortable around Spirit-filled believers. They can sense God's presence! The greater the presence, the greater the reaction! They don't like you! They HATE listening to Scripture...Oh where do I end... remember to be peace-loving. Do not conform to patterns of the world. The things the world deems important, are in fact worthless in God's Kingdom.

#KingdomFlow Legion: 1-6 thousand. If that many demons can possess a person, how much of God's light can fill a person?

The name Legion is the same as the Greek noun λεγεων (legeon), meaning legion, which was imported from Latin and derives of a Latin verb that in turn came from Greek, namely λεγω (lego), meaning to speak intelligently.

Worldly intelligence and wisdom from the carnal mind will blind you to the spiritual realities and truths of God's Word.

People think Satan is some big red demon, but the reality is, He's everything that 'the world' deems "good" "sensible" "reasonable" "knowledgeable" "Intelligent" "real". That is why they cannot perform the workings of faith in the POWER of the Spirit. Renew your mind, or be blinded to the things of faith.

"having a form of godliness but denying its power. Turn away from such as these!" 2 Timothy 3:5

"From that time on Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.

Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. “Far be it from You, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to You!”

But Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me. For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.” Matthew 16:21-23

Everything is so...worldly. Suffocating.

"See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many." Hebrews 12:15

PURE physical affection between a family of believers is only as weird as YOU ALLOW it to be. It is sad we have to go:

"Ok class, boys go with boys, girls go with girls. Oh you're a different race? We'll put you in a separate service! we're not mature enough to crucify our flesh with Christ. We all still have weak consciences, we're all still seeking after desires of the flesh"

A shame some people can't control their own bodies. CHRIST'S BLOOD GOES DEEPER than blood family and GENEALOGY. Don't be DECEIVED. It WILL sprout divisions and bitterness in the Body of Christ. This is why some people don't enjoy communion as much as they COULD! DIVISIONS. Shame.

"While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, His mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to Him. Someone told Him, “Look, Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to You.”

But Jesus replied, “Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?” Pointing to His disciples, He said, “Here are My mother and My brothers. For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.” Matthew 12:46-50

"As I urged you on my departure to Macedonia, you should stay on at Ephesus to instruct certain men not to teach false doctrines or devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies, which promote speculation rather than the stewardship of God’s work, which is by faith.

The goal of our instruction is the love that comes from a pure heart, a clear conscience, and a sincere faith. Some have strayed from these ways and turned aside to empty talk. They want to be teachers of the Law, but they do not understand what they are saying or that which they so confidently assert.

Now we know that the Law is good, if one uses it legitimately. We realize that law is not enacted for the righteous, but for the lawless and rebellious, for the ungodly and sinful, for the unholy and profane, for killers of father or mother, for murderers, for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave traders and liars and perjurers, and for anyone else who is averse to sound teaching that agrees with the glorious gospel of the blessed God, with which I have been entrusted." 1 Timothy 1:3-11

#Purpose #Direction A red cardinal has been sitting by my window and on my car from an evergreen tree, continuously chirping this past week. An answer to my prayer for direction. Christ's law of love. Vitality. Creativity. Life. Christ's blood. Relationship. Family. Hmm. Interpreting signs. Someone once told me that a Red cardinal means that someone loves them. That someone is Jesus!

Commandments are only commandments, if you need more of Christ's love!

"But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever." 1 Timothy 5:8

"So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith." Galatians 6:10

"While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, His mother and brothers stood outside, wanting to speak to Him. Someone told Him, “Look, Your mother and brothers are standing outside, wanting to speak to You.”

But Jesus replied, “Who is My mother, and who are My brothers?” Pointing to His disciples, He said, “Here are My mother and My brothers. For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.” Matthew 12:46-50

Here's some knowledge for anyone interested in Truth. If a lie is preached long enough, does it gradually become accepted as Truth until the lie is Truth and the Truth is a lie? Who is the deceiver? There is no deceiver? He doesn't exist? Wrong. He is very much alive and active. Deceiving even the elect, if it were possible. 1 Peter 5:8-9.

Acts 8:9-24. Simon Magus. Simon the Magician. Simon the Sorceror.

Simony- the buying or selling of ecclesiastical privileges, for example pardons or benefices.

Ecclesiastical- relating to the Christian Church or its clergy.

Pardon- the action of forgiving or being forgiven for an error or offense.

Benefice- a permanent Church appointment, typically that of a rector or vicar, for which property and income are provided in respect of pastoral duties.

"Of course, godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and neither can we carry anything out of it. But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.

Those who want to be rich, however, fall into temptation and become ensnared by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. By craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

But you, O man of God, flee from these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness. Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made the good confession before many witnesses. 1 Timothy 6:6-12

"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge; because you have rejected knowledge, I reject you from being a priest to me. And since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children." Hosea 4:6

"the prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule at their direction; my people love to have it so, but what will you do when the end comes?" Jeremiah 5:31

2 Thessalonians 2/1 Corinthians 14:20-22 is an interesting read.

"Have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for everything that is illuminated becomes a light itself." Ephesians 5:11-13

You can relay God's commands all day but unless you can explain in-depth why they are beneficial, what will happen if they are not followed, and how they interact with everyday life in a practical sense....the teaching may become demon candy.

Jesus told me I'm not longer allowed to eat any meat except for clean fish and poultry. Also I'm commanded to eat more fruits and vegetables. Also for some reason pork/pig tastes revolting in my mouth. O wait, that was some of the commandments in the Old Testament! I like how He's empowering me to overcome the deadly sin gluttony/obesity.

"Join one another in following my example, brothers, and carefully observe those who live according to the pattern we set for you. For as I have often told you before, and now declare even with tears: Many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and their glory is in their shame. Their minds are set on earthly things.

But our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables Him to subject all things to Himself, will transform our lowly bodies to be like His glorious body. " Philippians 3:17-21

Also, no more tattoos (Leviticus 19:28, 1 Corinthians 6:18-20)...

<3. It's almost like commandments are easy to fulfill when Christ is living inside of me and the Spirit's love produces the fruit and not me!

It may be hard to understand when you're young.

Mem.

O how I love Your law!
It is my meditation all the day.

Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies,
For they are ever mine.

I have more insight than all my teachers,
For Your testimonies are my meditation.

I understand more than the aged,
Because I have observed Your precepts.

I have restrained my feet from every evil way,
That I may keep Your word.

I have not turned aside from Your ordinances,
For You Yourself have taught me.

How sweet are Your words to my taste!
Yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!

From Your precepts I get understanding;
Therefore I hate every false way.

Psalm 119:97-104 (NASB)
