Why is it that we humans think that we can hide from God?

I have never understood why it is that we humans think that we can hide from God those things we do and say.

We think it is too much that big brother has his eyes constantly fixed on us, with his snooping devices such as cameras and listening in on our phone conversations.

Let me assure you that the one who created us all, who is greater than big brother knows full well what we think say and do at all times.

If Adam and Eve the first of His human creations could not hide their sin from God and the past generations of our ancestors could not hide from God, what is it that makes us humans of today’s generation think that He doesn’t see us?

The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.   Proverbs 15:3

God sees all that there is about us, He sees our troubles, sins, temptations, heartache, sicknesses.pain, and sorrow because He loves us He urges us to come to Him with all of our cares.

casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.   1 Peter 5:7

Why is it that we humans when we are in trouble, are sick and in need always seek an answer from other humans before consulting our maker?

Why do humans always want to look everywhere but the right place in  seeking help, calling on family, friends, neighbors and government to do for us what God promises to do if we will only put our confidence in Him?

Doesn’t the Bible say from the book of Genesis through the book of Revelation that God desires us to call upon Him with our needs and to place all our confidence in Him?

It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.   Psalms 118:8

and call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me."   Psalm 50:15

This poor man called, and the LORD heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles.   Psalm 34:6

The Lord may choose to use  other humans and various means to deliver you, even granting a miracle deliverance but it is God whom you first should call upon when you are in trouble.

O LORD my God, I called to you for help and you healed me.   psalms 30:2

And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years,  BUT NO ONE COULD HEAL HER.   She came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak, and immediately her bleeding stopped.   Luke 8:43-44

There is a need for Doctors, health care services,nurses and hospitals but none of these can heal you, all they can do is treat your sickness symptoms,only Jesus can heal  and He may choose your healing to come in different ways, medicines or miraculous, but it is He that you should call upon first.

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.   Philippians 4:19

God may choose to use family,friends,neighbors or various other means to supply your needs, He can even supply them supernaturally,but it is important to know that it is He who does it.

In my lifetime I have faced many troubles, had many temptations, trials, sicknesses, diseases, some death threatening but never have I sought my help from other humans or any other source I have simply lifted my eyes to heaven and my voice to God, believing His word trusting Him fully believing all of His promises as written in the Holy bible.   A few of which I have stated above but the Bible contains many more of God’s promises.

God has always in everything kept His word to me, never has He left me to face these things alone but has always answered my cries for help and delivered me through them all.

 Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.   Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:  Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;   Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;  Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.   Psalm 103:1-5

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.   James 1:17

It is a foolish person who chooses to live in their sins, troubles, sickness, needs of the body and spirit when they could call upon the only one who truly loves them as no other can and is able and willing to deliver them out of all their distresses.

God sees your needs, He has your help reserved, and He is waiting for your call of faith to release it to you.

There are many ,many witnesses confirming this truth perhaps a few in your family, God confirms His word with many signs, wonders and miracles don’t let your unbelief rob you of the life you could have in Jesus any longer.

C.E.Lee 9162014

Are you troubled by something?

Are you troubled by something?   Do you hurt with bodily pain or a broken heart?   Do you have needs that it seems no one cares about?   Is your heart heavy from sorrow?   Is something bearing on your mind that won’t go away?   Are you troubled with questions it seems no one can answer for you?   Are you longing for peace of mind and heart?   Does it seem that there is no one who wants to take the time to listen to those things that are bothering you?

If this is you, now is the time for you to talk to the one person who loves you deeply, eternally and cares about you above all others, the one who can answer all of your questions, deliver you out of all your troubles, heal your sickly body mend your broken heart, supply all your needs, bring peace to your troubled mind and give you peace in your heart beyond all human understanding.

Now is the time for you to seek an interview with God! Giving Him all of your earthly cares because He is the only one who cares for you more than any other.

And God is the only one who has the answers to your questions and problems.   You can reach Him around the clock night or day through His hotline called prayer.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV)

 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

PEOPLE IT IS TIME TO QUIT PLAYING GAMES WITH OUR ENEMIES

PEOPLE IT IS TIME TO QUIT PLAYING GAMES WITH OUR ENEMIES, SOUND THE BATTLE CRY AND HEAD FOR THE FRONT LINES OF BATTLE.  THE DEATH AND LIFE OF AMERICA IS AT STAKE!   

And the church of the Lord Jesus Christ is her only line of defense.

During World War II the American people united and stood against the common enemies of Hitler’s Germany and Hirohito’s Japan.   From 1 September 1939 to 2 September 1945.

America was involved to some extent from its beginning, but became militarily involved

With the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor (Hawaii) on December the 7^th 1941 which was a military outpost of the American navy in the pacific! This was the beginning of the American military involvement.

We fought a long hard battle from 1941 to 1945 and suffered many casualties of war and many, many hardships but we won the war and saved America from collapsing under the power of our enemies.

Folks America is now in the very worst war ever waged against us our faith in God, our American heritage, culture, liberty and freedom are at stake.

Our common enemies Satan, Sin and demonic spiritual forces are gaining more ground, each and every day we are losing to the enemy more and more of those things that we once treasured and held dear. Our moral character has fallen to making us now the most immoral country in the world. We have given up our honesty to become led by the most dishonest and corrupt leaders in American history.   We have forsaken truth and right to follow lies spoken through the mouths ungodly politicians from the father of all lies Satan himself.

We have forsaken God’s leadership taken our nation from under His control and put it into the hands of those who are hell bent on the destruction of America  and putting out the light of a godly nation that once shined from  shore to shining shore throughout our God blessed nation of prosperity and plenty.

This president said that we are no longer a Christian nation and the evidence proves him right.

This administration said that it was going to offer us hope and change and the way it looks it has kept its promise, but it is not the change that most of us expected or wanted and most certainly we have no hope at all in what it is producing.

Our only hope is in God’s promises and in the ability of the Lord Jesus Christ to change the hearts and minds of this country’s evil minded peoples.

We no longer consider our nation One Nation under God, but instead we are becoming a liberal, socialist country with no God.

We have divided ourselves into racial classes, classes of rich and poor, we have removed the middle class backbone strength of our economy and lowered ourselves to near third world country.    We have allowed immigrates both legalized citizens and illegal to cross our borders entering into our country to set up their own little pieces of America refusing to respect our God. Accept our customs and abide by our laws.   Dividing America into a bunch of little countries flying their flags living by their own customs and laws refusing to speak our language and become American citizens as was once required of them by our government.

We are losing one battle after another because we are no longer united and organized to fight these kinds of enemies.   These are mostly spiritual enemies in high places and far too many Christians have forsaken putting on the full armor of God and have no weapons effective enough to fight the enemy with.

Our Christian church for the most part has become so luke warm and cold toward their love for God and our Lord Jesus Christ that the Holy Ghost has left  most of them and they no longer have an effect of saving lost souls or delivering them from darkness unto the glorious light of the gospel of Jesus Christ, where they can be put under conviction for their sins receive forgiveness of sin   by the power of God through Jesus, be delivered from sinning in their flesh and the harmful addictions that are hurting and harming them and our country.  The messages of many Christian preachers are more about telling them how to manipulate God for things that pleasure the flesh and riches to satisfy their greed than how to get them saved and transformed in to new creations in Christ Jesus.

Because our nation has chosen political correctness over the truth and so many in the Christian church is so fearful of speaking the truth we are losing the war between good and evil Satan, Sin and the flesh.

Our nation has held tightly to religion America boasts of the highest number of religious beliefs in the world we have a higher number of professed Christians than anywhere else in the world.   But as a nation we have denied the power of God and rejected the laws of God.

If we are to win this war and save our nation from total collapse and ruin, we as a nation of peoples are going to have to unite again in our efforts to save her.   Our Christian churches are going to have to become one union again uniting under that banner of love for God the Lord Jesus Christ and one another.

We are not going to win this war with guns and weapons of the flesh, we are going to have to dress in the full armor of God.   The war between good and evil, Satan, and the demonic spirits that follow him and the sins of our human flesh require much and continued humbleness, fasting and prayer.

And if we don’t win this war America and her peoples are defeated and dead.

 Romans 6:23King James Version (KJV)For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Wake up children of God rise from your comfortable bed of sleep dress in the full armor of God and go out to defend your faith and your country in the name of Jesus and the power of God.

Ephesians 6:10-18 (NIV)

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.  Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.  Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.  Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,  and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.  Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

THEREFORE PUT ON THE FULL ARMOR OF GOD, SO THAT WHEN THE DAY OF EVIL COMES, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO STAND YOUR GROUND, AND AFTER YOU HAVE DONE EVERYTHING, TO STAND.  STAND FIRM THEN,

Exodus 14:14 (NIV)

THE LORD WILL FIGHT FOR YOU; YOU NEED ONLY TO BE STILL.”

But we the faithful members of the Church of our Lord Jesus Christ must first take a united stand against the evils that are engulfing our nation and after we have stood up and done all that we individually can do, then stand still hold our ground and watch God in His great and mighty power deliver America from the hands of all enemies.

I AM GOING TO TALK DIRTY IN MY POST TODAY

I AM GOING TO TALK DIRTY IN MY POST TODAY

The most valuable part of earth we humans treat as insignificant, yet it is the most valuable to our physical existence.   We are quick to remove it from our bodies, our clothes and our homes.   Most on a daily basis bathe our bodies, wipe it from our house hold furnishings and sweep it from our houses.   We can’t stand to see it in our cars, offices and places of work.

But out of it came our fleshly bodies that clothe our souls, it produces the food that we eat to stay alive and holds our earth together.   No soil no solid earth the very substance that we treat as of little importance gives us the solid place beneath our feet to stand and walk on.

Out of it in God’s appointed time He gave us life and clothed us with it.   And in God’s appointed time He will return us to it.

Dirt is no respecter of persons, there is no racial discrimination, no preference between male and female, adults or children, it does not prefer the rich over the poor, the educated over the illiterate, neither does it matter to dirt what language we speak or what we believe or don’t believe.

Dirt simply is where we all came from and it is where we all will return when our time on earth is finished!

Dirt does not care how good or how bad we have lived our lives, it accepts us all as equals when we are created from it and when we return to it.

But above dirt Almighty God is the most important part of our existence it is He who formed us from the dust of the earth and placed us in our mother’s womb, it is He who breathed into us His spirit of life and He is a respecter of persons, God will separate us one from another at death according to how we have lived our lives on earth.

We should all honor Him, worship Him and be thankful to Him because He is our life we all live and walk and have our being because He gave us a body of flesh and breathed into our lungs His breath of life and each of us became a living soul.

God put us here on earth to fulfill His will and purpose, and whether we fulfill it or fail it is left up to us.

Whether we live life to please God or we go through our short time on earth rebelling against God rejecting His will and purpose for His creation of us, is our decision to make it is we and we alone who choose the way that we will go and what we will do with our lives.

But know this God hates sin and He hates evil He has sworn His wrath on evil and pronounced death and eternal punishment upon all sin.

At death the body of flesh returns to dust and each of our souls are separated one from another some for eternal life in heaven and some to receive the eternal punishment of hell fire from righteous holy God who does not change, punishment prepared for Satan and the fallen angels who were tempted to sin and followed him.

When we humans choose to follow Satan yielding ourselves to the sinful temptations of the flesh, knowing full well the wages for our sin is death.   And knowing that God hates all sin and we without excuse choose to live in it.   It is very foolish to think that we in our rebellion and sin could ever hope to escape the punishment of Satan, fallen angels and devils.

Hebrews 2:3-4 (KJV)

 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;

God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?

Hebrews 9:27 (KJV)

 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:

Ecclesiastes 12:7

and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.

Matthew 25:32

And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a

shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

1 Peter 4:18

And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

Matthew 25:46

And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

Are you prepared to accept where you’re going if your appointed time ends today!

John 3:16-17 (NIV)

 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.   For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

C.E.Lee 9142014

Enter through the narrow gate

 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.   But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.    Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV)

For those of us who have the ability to discern we see the human society following two very different directions, two very different paths in life, leading to two very different places in the end.

There is the broad road of sin that most of the world follows, and there is the narrow road of righteousness that a very few of the world’s population follows.

If we have any sense at all we know that the human race is destroying through its desire for evil and sinful pleasures of the flesh, the world that God created placed us in and said it all was good.

We have taken that which was once good and instead of preserving it and rightly using it, we have turned it into an evil playground, inviting Satan, sin and demonic spirits of evil to dominate and control our lives our world and the road that we travel.   And by evil deeds and sinful actions we destroy our lives and a little bit more of the good earth, God gave us to live on each and every day.

It was not meant to be this way, God did not intend for it to be this way, God does not want it to be this way, but since God has given each of us the gift of free will choice to choose the road that we travel.   The majority of you have chosen the broad road that leads to destruction and rejected the only path that leads to life. Many of you are on the broad road because you are afraid of being different and you don’t want to be separated from family and friends who travel the broad road.

So you are willing to live a few short days filling your lives with the pure hell of addictions of your flesh giving yourselves over to every sinful lust that your mind and body can crave.   It is easy to live in sin and sin is pleasure to the body of flesh, but sin becomes hell on earth and leads to hell below.

The straight and narrow path however leads to a God blessed fulfilled life on earth and eternal life in heaven.   But unlike the life of sin it is a very hard life to live and without holding tightly to the hand of Jesus none of us could travel it, stay on it or follow it until we reach our destination at the end.

Two roads, two paths, two directions to go ,two lives to live, two spirits to follow the evil spirit Satan, the good Spirit God.

Who are you following today? What road are you traveling today? If God required your soul today where would your road take you?

You don’t have to be on the broad road that leads to destruction, you don’t have to live your lives in sin, you don’t have to let evil corrupt you, you don’t have to allow Satan and his fallen angels to dominate and control your lives.   And you don’t have to continue to destroy your life and your world through sin.

For God so loved the world that he gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.   For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.   John 3:16-17 (NIV)

You see! God made a way to fix our broken lives and our broken world.

Let God save you through Jesus, and you through Jesus can live to help change the direction of your world and help lost souls to get off the broad road and on the narrow path that leads to an abundantly blessed and eternal life.

Living by Faith

The LORD had said to Abram, "Go from your country, your people and your father's household to the land I will show you. Genesis 12:1

I sense in my heart that God is telling me to share something of my past with you and when I am confident that it is God speaking to me I always obey, because He is my Supreme commander.

Following His instructions always completes His purpose and brings blessing to me and to those whom my testimony was meant to uplift and encourage.

So here goes my heart with Gods message.

In the year 1967 I as a young new born Christian not fully understanding all that God wanted to do in my life and with my life. I began hearing a voice inside of me speaking to my heart and saying to me, pack up your family leave the place of your birth and the home that you have known, leave your family and friends and move to southern Arizona I have a work for you to do there.

These thoughts troubled me much and I spent many days in prayer concerning what I thought God was asking me to do trying to understand why and the reason for it.

Still my thoughts were continually thinking about Arizona and I couldn’t understand why.

All that I ever knew about Arizona was learned from old western movies and the child hood Cowboys and Indians games my brother and I played imagining ourselves heroes and villains of the Wild West.

I was always the good guy an Arizona or Texas Ranger and my brother played the part of the bad guy.

After many days of praying and thinking of what I was going to do, I finally accepted the fact that indeed it was God speaking to my heart and I had to obey His will for me.

I came home from work one Friday afternoon in April of 1967 and I said to my wife lets pack it up we are moving to Arizona.

At that time in our lives we were living from pay check to pay check and did not have any savings at all.

We had only our small children two sons and a daughter the oldest was 6 years and the youngest 9 months old.

We had a 1962 Chevrolet Corvair and it wasn’t paid for and $300.00 in our pockets and I was telling my wife we were going to Arizona a two thousand mile trip from our home town New Albany,Indiana.

But how would we make it that far and how would we live after we got there, if we even got there?

This was her questions to me, and I said to her we are going with faith in God who promises to provide for us everything that we need.

And so we said our good byes to the family and friends and headed west after traveling about four days on the road we reached our destination, Tucson Arizona.

We arrived late in the evening on a Friday afternoon and of all things we wound up on a beautiful area called Miracle Mile.

With only about $150.00 dollars left of our $300.00 that we started out with we stopped at a motel called the Don Motel there on the Miracle Mile strip.

Keep in mind we had no relatives and no friends in this strange city that God had sent us to and all we had for our survival was $150.00 dollars and our faith in God to provide for us.

Out of that$150.00 dollars we paid for a one week stay and settled in for the week end.

On Monday morning I got up early left my family at the motel and went job hunting not knowing my way around in this big city I just drove up one street and down another.

After an hour or two I passed this one company my eyes were fixed upon it and it seemed as though the Spirit of the Lord was saying to me, this is it go in here and ask for a job.

And so I parked my car and went inside the building I told them that I was a stranger in town and looking for a job.

After an interview with the boss telling him about myself and the experience that I had to offer his company. Offering to show him letters of recommendation from my previous employers in Indiana.

He said to me you are hired I don’t need to read your letters I want to see your performance.

I worked for that company and lived in Arizona 18 years before moving my family to Texas in the winter of 1979.

I want to tell you that during all those years in Arizona and as well our years here in Texas God has kept his promises to Mary, me and our children He has always provided our needs and even more than what we needed at times, we have seen many miracles of God in our lives over the years that we have lived in His care and expect to see many more before we are called to come live with Him in heaven.

God has never failed us neither has He ever let us down as we have lived by faith in Him trusting our lives to His guidance, protection and keeping.

I will not tell you that we have not had troubles and sufferings and had need of things along the way, but I will tell you that by our faith and God honoring our faith in Him, He has given us strength to endure and always given us shelter over our heads and food in our cupboard.

There were times when we had plenty and times we had little but never a time when we didn’t have enough to sustain us.

Yet this is no cause for shame, because I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him until that day. 2 Timothy 1:12 (NIV)

In the words of this old gospel hymn I will sum it all up there is no better way to live life than to live it by faith in God.

1. I care not today what the morrow may bring,
   If shadow or sunshine or rain,
   The Lord I know ruleth o’er everything,
   And all of my worries are vain.
• Refrain:
  Living by faith in Jesus above,
  Trusting, confiding in His great love;
  From all harm safe in His sheltering arm,
  I’m living by faith and feel no alarm.
2. Though tempests may blow and the storm clouds arise,
   Obscuring the brightness of life,
   I’m never alarmed at the overcast skies—
   The Master looks on at the strife.
3. I know that He safely will carry me through,
   No matter what evils betide;
   Why should I then care though the tempest may blow,
   If Jesus walks close to my side.

Our Lord will return for His loved ones some day,
Our troubles will then all be o’er;
The Master so gently will lead us away,
Beyond that blest heavenly shore.

Where is we the People of the Republic of the United States of America?

21^st century Constitutional history taking place in Washington D.C. today news worthy action happening at our nation’s capital and where is the news media? Where are the supporters of this brave few standing up for the constitution of a once free nation to be saved from the tyrants that are destroying it?

People it seems to me that there is an organized black out of information coming from a most important event concerning our country’s freedom and not many even care to hear about it.

Have the masses become as brainwashed zombies following their master and willingly giving up their freedoms without an effort to hold onto to those precious freedoms our constitution and bill of rights have guaranteed us for the past 238 years?

Our freedom to be a Christian is given us by the shed blood of our Lord Jesus Christ and yet so many Christians are silent in these very days that our faith and way of life are under attack.

Our freedoms as American citizens was given us by our forefathers shedding their blood to give us our American Constitution and Bill of rights and yet so many are willing to remain silent while we are losing them.

Have we become a nation of cowards willing to turn over our rights to control the destiny of our country to a handful of elected employees sitting in the White house mocking and laughing and persecuting the few who are willing to not only speak out but put action to their words by joining together in peaceful protest in front of our nation’s capital.

Where is we the People of the Republic of the United States of America? Why aren’t more of you doing something in support of the few American brothers and sisters who are are on the front line holding up the banner of freedom on our behalf?

If we lose our voice and our right to freedom of speech and peacefully assemble to address our grievances with a corrupt government gone wrong now.

We will never have this opportunity again this day will only come once in our life time.

Speak out now and remain free keep silent and become slaves, it is only WE the People that can make that decision.

We can unite to keep our country free or continue to separate ourselves from one another and destroy all the freedoms we have left.

A wise man once said, “the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
