Why have you rejected us forever, O God? Why does your anger smolder against the sheep of your pasture? (Psalm 74:1). Our God is love, but He is also a consuming fire. His fire consumes everything in our lives that God did not plant. His fire refines us & we get aligned to the Word of God & by the Spirit. God can be angry at us. What makes Him angry at us? It's living in sin. There is a difference between making a mistake & living in sin. When you live in sin, you sin wilfully; you make plans to sin, test those plans to see whether they will work out well, & proceed to ACT on them with full knowledge that you are sinning. This is what living in sin does to a person. God is against such people. There is no more sacrifice of sins for those who sin wilfully. Your sin makes a separation between you & God. Sin stands in between you & God & delays your destiny. Sin block your blessings. Most of our blessings are tied to obedience. Sin blocks them & God won't release them to you. They will be held up until you are doing your purpose & living by faith, being obedient & righteous. Prayer: Father, help us not to justify sin, or color it, or defend it. Help us to realize that sin is sin; there is nothing like small sin, medium sin or BIG sin. Help us to deal with sin head on, as it occurs. Forgive us our sins. Wash us by the blood of Jesus. Purify us from all unrighteousness. Instead of being angry at us, deal with us with compassion. Thank you Lord for answering my prayer. We put angels under our complement to action. You know the assignment. Direct them to the right addresses. Let them minister to our needs as your church & people. I value working in partnership with you Lord. In Jesus mighty name we pray, Amen. Good morning Holy Spirit. Immanuel: God with us. Heaven Rules.
This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their minds & write them on their hearts. I will be their God, & they will be My people. No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying: Know the Lord, because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest. (Hebrews 8:10-11). If our hearts are not changed, following God's rules will be unpleasant & difficult. We will rebel against being told how to live the Christian way. The Holy Spirit, however, gives us new desires, helping us wanting to obey God. With new hearts, hearts of flesh & not hearts of stone, we will find that serving God is our greatest joy. Under God's new covenant, God's law is inside us & not outside, ie, on a tablet of stone. No, it's written in our hearts. It is no longer an external set of rules & principles. The Holy Spirit reminds us of Christ's words, activates our ...
