Has GOD Spoke to You Lately....

How to Absolutely Know if GOD is Speaking to You or Not: "Hearing from GOD is probably the most anticipated prize in anyone's life who is diligently seeking after the LORD. Even if you are an unbeliever and don't really believe that there is a GOD who truly loves you past what you can fathom, you too may have wanted to hear GOD's voice at some point in your lifetime."

He That Hath Ears to Hear, Let Him Hear...

I just love reading the stories of JESUS from the gospels, and today as I was shaving in my half bathroom (the man-cave of the house), I always listen to the Word of GOD by audio.  And I was listening, the Holy Spirit brought by attention to the words of Jesus- "He That Hath Ears to Hear, Let Him Hear.. 


This quote came after the teaching, healing, and rebuking Jesus had already performed.  It dawned on me that this quote is very important, and it brought a very important verse to my mind that is found in the book of James that says:


"Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.. God is saying that He wants us to always be quick to hear and slow to speak..


And as think about this concept, this can be a very hard thing to do.  Most of us would like to talk than listen to sound judgment.  Most of us (and this includes me) would rather speak than accept sound wisdom.  


Most of us would rather tell our loved one what we think rather than listen to their side of the story.  Most of us would rather talk to GOD and not hear what He is trying to say to us..


It's obvious that as created being in the image of GOD we have two important items on each side of our heads called ears, and those ears were made to LISTEN.  But, sometimes listening can be mistaken for hearing.  Jesus expects us to hear and listen to what He is saying.  In this comes the power to be obedient.  


The Bible clearly states that "Obedience is Better than Sacrifice"- 1 Samuel 15:22-  So now that there's a clear understanding of the quote- "He That Hath Ears to Hear, Let Him Hear", I want to give some sound principles on how to put this into practice.


1. Silence- The Word of God directs us to meditate on God's Word daily- Joshua 1:8- Silence is the voice of GOD when you are tuned into searching out His Will for your life.  So take some time out of your day to not only talk to God, but to listen to Him.  


2. Rest- If you are not resting, it will be very difficult to Have the Ears to Hear. There's a lot of noise in this world we live in and it's very easy to get so busy that we forget to pray or read our Bibles. This is not good at all.  


Take at least 24 hours to rest- My rest time is from Friday sundown to Saturday Sundown- (Sabbath)  This will help your body and mind to recoup back to normal stature.


3. Attend Church-  The Word of GOD also is clear about assembling together with other believers- Hebrews 10:25- There's wisdom, peace, encouragement, and hope that is in the air when you get around others going after the prize of meeting Jesus face to face. 


 Each week you have the opportunity to be a blessing to others and for others to be a blessing to you.  God always has a word for you to hear when you come to His House.  


So, take this principles to hear, and meditate on this awesome quote from Jesus.  "He That Hath Ears to Hear, Let Him Hear..


God Bless You,

True RELIGION Promotes Health..

From Reflecting Christ by Physical and Mental Development

This world is not all sorrow and misery. "God is love" is written upon every opening bud, upon the petals of every flower, and upon every spire of grass. Though the curse of sin has caused the earth to bring forth thorns and thistles, there are flowers upon the thistles and the thorns are hidden by roses.
All things in nature testify to the tender, fatherly care of our GOD and to His desire to make His children happy.

 His prohibitions and injunctions are not intended merely to display His authority, but in all that He does He has the well-being of His children to view. He does not require them to give up anything that it would be for their best interest to retain.

The opinion which prevails in some classes of society, that religion is not conducive to health or to happiness in this life, is one of the most mischievous of errors. The Scripture says: "The fear of the Lord tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied" (Proverbs 19:23). "What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good? Keep thou tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it" (Psalm 34:12-14). The words of wisdom "are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh" (Proverbs 4:22).


True religion brings man into harmony with the laws of God, physical, mental, and moral. It teaches self-control, serenity, temperance. Religion ennobles the mind, refines the taste, and sanctifies the judgment. It makes the soul a partaker of the purity of heaven. Faith in God's love and overruling providence lightens the burdens of anxiety and care.

It fills the heart with joy and contentment in the highest or lowest lot. Religion tends directly to promote health, to lengthen life, and to heighten our enjoyment of all it's blessings. It opens to the soul a never-failing fountain of happiness. Would that all who have not chose Christ might realize that He has something vastly better to offer them than they are seeking for themselves...

There is intimate relation between the mind and the body, and in order to reach a high standard of moral and intellectual attainment the laws that control our physical being must be heeded. To secure a strong- well-balanced character, both the mental and physical powers must be exercised and developed. What study can be more important...than that which treats of this wonderful organism that God has committed to us, and of the laws by which it may be preserved in health?- Patriarchs and Prophets, pp. 600, 601.

The Sacred Law of GOD- Is It Really Null and Void?




One of the greatest deceptions of the Devil is convincing believers that the Law of GOD is null and void, or basically it has been done away with. This is one of the greatest lies ever. The Law of GOD is eternal, never-changing, and presents to a dying world the very character of GOD himself. Listen as this video breaks down why the Law is needed and will never be abolished.

Don't Let The Same Schemes Of The Devil Keep You In Bondage- It's Time To Stand Up For JESUS CHRIST!!




Satan has been telling the same lie from the beginning when he first deceived Adam and Eve. Don't give into his dark and subtle tricks. Stay in GOD's Word and prayer, and you will be able to know when the devil is trying to tempt you to SIN. This video will give you insights on his schemes. Take note of it and realize that GOD is able to keep you from falling.. AMEN

The Knowledge Received Through GOD's Word..

PhotobucketThe whole Bible is a revelation of the glory of GOD in Christ. Received, believed, obeyed, it is the great instrumentality in the transformation of character. It is the grand stimulus, the constraining force, that quickens the physical, mental, and spiritual powers, and directs the life into right channels.

The reason why the youth, and even those of mature years, are so easily led into temptation and SIN, is that they do not study the word of GOD and meditate upon it as they should. The lack of firm, decided will power, which is manifest in life and character, results from neglect of the sacred instruction of GOD's word. They do not by earnest effort direct the mind to that which would inspire pure, holy thought and divert it from that which is impure and untrue.

The truth of the Bible, received will uplift mind and soul. If the word of GOD were appreciated as it should be, both young and old would possess an inward rectitude, a strength of principle, that would enable them to resist temptation. Let men teach and write the precious things of the Holy Scriptures. Let the thought, the aptitude, the keen exercise of brain power, be given to the study of the thoughts of GOD. Study not the philosophy of man's conjectures, but study the philosophy of HIM who is truth. NO other literature can compare with this in value.

The mind that is earthly finds no pleasure in contemplating the word of GOD; but for the mind renewed by the Holy Spirit, divine beauty and celestial light shine from the sacred page. That which to the earthly mind was a desolate wilderness, to the spiritual mind becomes a land of living streams...
