Look Away from the Wait

“He said, “God’s Kingdom is as if a man should cast seed on the earth, and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he doesn’t know how. For the earth bears fruit: first the blade, then the ear, then the full grain in the ear. But when the fruit is ripe, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come.”” (Mark‬ ‭4:26-29‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Have you ever tried an exercise called “wall squats”? You basically lean your back against a wall, and bend your knees until you are squatting with your legs in a right angle bend.

Amilee and I do this exercise often now as part of our workout routine.

I notice how the ‘burn’ from this exercise is much more torturous when I stare at the countdown timer (we squat for a minute at the end of our workout). However if I distract myself by reading things, observing my surroundings, or looking at Mae playing in the living room, the one minute passes by easily. If I can hold my smartphone while squatting, I think I can last for many minutes.

When we are obsessing over the wait, it can be very painful. Time seems to crawl at a snail’s pace, and the frustration builds quickly.

God likes ways of progress that we cannot comprehend. That way, we cannot claim the glory, and we won’t be able to obsess over the waiting period.

In the passage above, the man sleeps and rises night and day, going on with his daily life, but the seed is still growing and eventually it bears fruit.

As long as you are receiving the good seeds of God’s word, you can be sure that a harvest is on the horizon.

Obsessing over the waiting process is painful, so just focus on Jesus and enjoy God’s word in the meantime. God is working on your life, even if the progress is not obvious.

You may not understand how your problems or troubles can be resolved, but God is wise and able to turn your situation around easily.

A prolonged waiting period is not wasted time when you have been growing in God’s word.

God can restore you for all those barren years in one fell swoop. One moment of His favor can accomplish more than a lifetime of labor.

Harvest time is coming for sure, so praise God and use your waiting time to do what really matters: receiving the precious treasure of His wisdom and sharing the Gospel to win souls, in the way that the Holy Spirit leads you.

Stay joyful in the Lord, and be filled with His shalom peace. Have a blessed week ahead!

The Holy Spirit Will Never Leave You

“Now Yahweh’s Spirit departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from Yahweh troubled him. Saul’s servants said to him, “See now, an evil spirit from God troubles you.” (1 Samuel‬ ‭16:14-15‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

When Saul kept sinning against God by disobeying His instructions through prophet Samuel, the Holy Spirit departed from Saul. In its place, an evil spirit was allowed to pester Saul. God had removed His hand of protection from Saul and he no longer had the anointing of a king.

“Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all of my iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within me. Don’t throw me from your presence, and don’t take your holy Spirit from me.” (Psalms‬ ‭51:9-11‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

When David sinned by committing adultery with Bathsheba and conspired to murder her husband Uriah, God rebuked him through the prophet Nathan, and David was sorrowful. He wrote the words in the psalm above. David was so afraid that God would remove the Holy Spirit from him, just like He did to Saul.

Under the Law, if someone sins, the Holy Spirit can depart from him. The Law is a covenant whereby God’s presence, anointing, and blessings depended on man’s obedience.

I watched a sermon video the other day of Katherine Kuhlman preaching a nonsensical message, with “take not Your Holy Spirit from me” as a focus. She also said that if we desired the power of the Holy Spirit and to see miracles, we have to ‘pay the price’.

“Be free from the love of money, content with such things as you have, for he has said, “I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you.” So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?”” (Hebrews‬ ‭13:5-6‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

As far as I know, God has promised to never leave or forsake us in any way. He will never remove His Holy Spirit from us.

On top of that, the blood that Jesus shed at the cross is what paid the full price for us to have the Holy Spirit and the fullness of His power. We could not pay the price and that is why Abba God sent Jesus to pay it on our behalf.

“I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever,— the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive; for it doesn’t see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.” (John‬ ‭14:16-17‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Read Jesus’ words above. Under Grace, the Holy Spirit will “be with you forever”—not just until the next time you sin. It is not based on your obedience, but the obedience of Christ at the cross.

Do not let anyone bring you into the bondage of wrong believing, no matter how famous they are. We must know the Scriptures so that we will not be deceived.

Need help understanding the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John correctly through the lens of Grace? I know how intimidating reading the four gospels can be. When I was a new believer, some passages in there were just frightful and discouraging.

The reason was because I did not know how to rightly divide the Word based on the covenants. I thought everything in there was directed at me.

For example, Jesus said that if you eye causes you to sin, pluck it out, for it is better for you to enter Heaven without eyes than to have your entire being cast into the fire of Hell. Are we supposed to pluck our eyes out when we sin? Are we supposed to cut off our arms and legs like Jesus said? We need to understand the important reason why He said what He did. There is a purpose that you won’t understand if you have no context or background knowledge of the whole Bible.

Make “Death Plants” Wither Away

“So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.” (Romans‬ ‭8:12-13‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The apostle Paul was addressing believers in the passage above—he said “brothers”.

We see that sowing to the flesh (indulging its lusts, cravings, and sinful passions) results in reaping earthly consequences of death, and this is not inflicted by God.

This is just the principle of sowing and reaping taking effect. This principle has been at work since God created the world.

“God said, “Let the earth yield grass, herbs yielding seeds, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with their seeds in it, on the earth”; and it was so. The earth yielded grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with their seeds in it, after their kind; and God saw that it was good…God said, “Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.” (Genesis‬ ‭1:11-12, 29‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

We see from the Book of Proverbs that this principle of sowing and reaping is not limited to plant seeds, but also seeds like our spoken words:

“A man’s stomach is filled with the fruit of his mouth. With the harvest of his lips he is satisfied. Death and life are in the power of the tongue; those who love it will eat its fruit.” (Proverbs‬ ‭18:20-21‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

When we speak, we sow seeds of either life or death. These seeds can produce a harvest of fruits after its kind.

To understand sowing, look at the natural process of growing a plant seed.

A seed has to be planted in the soil (the human heart is like soil) and watered. It is a process that happens progressively over time, not instantly.

An exception to this is when God gives a miracle that compresses time. Otherwise, the process of sowing and reaping takes time to happen.

“Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed. Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, produces death.” (James‬ ‭1:13-15‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

See how lust is depicted as a seed in the passage above. Firstly, it conceives when initially planted and watered in the heart, and begins to bear sin (the first occurrence of committing sin outwardly). The sin then keeps growing if constantly watered, and eventually when it is a full grown fruit, it produces death.

When sinful habits are constantly watered, the consequences become more severe. You can kill that plant when you stop watering it and instead spray some effective herbicide called “the Gospel of Jesus Christ”.

Such plants are also Satanic strongholds which can be destroyed by the “obedience of Christ”. Apply Jesus’ finished work to your situation and see how He has redeemed you from that habit through His sacrifice at the cross. He has made you the righteousness of God. You are now holy, just, blameless, and pure. Your reborn spirit does not manufacture sin and has no desire to.

You can also curse it to its roots and cause it to wither up, just as Jesus cursed the fig tree.

“Seeing a fig tree by the road, he came to it, and found nothing on it but leaves. He said to it, “Let there be no fruit from you forever!” Immediately the fig tree withered away. When the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, “How did the fig tree immediately wither away?” Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, if you have faith, and don’t doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you told this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ it would be done. All things, whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.” (Matthew‬ ‭21:19-22‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Instead of trying to break your sinful habit through willpower, secular counseling, or punishing yourself, use the power of your faith-filled spoken words.

Declare with me: “In Jesus’ name, I curse this death-bearing plant of _______ (the name of your sinful habit) to its roots. Let it wither away now and produce no more fruit forever. I have lost all desire to water this plant. I have been set free from the bondage, and I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Amen!”

I want to see you free from all bondages of the enemy. In “Silencing the Serpent: How Christians Can Emerge Victorious in Spiritual Warfare”, you will learn more about destroying Satanic strongholds and yokes. This is very important to free yourself from long-time cycles of defeat they you can’t seem to break free from: https://bit.ly/silence-the-serpent-now

We've lost count of the challenges everyone has faced in 2020 that has cast darkness on many people's lives. Besides the very real struggles in our day-to-day life, we know there are also fears and mind games that can be hard to shake off.

But the truth is, in the midst of the darkness, Jesus' light is right here and it shines even brighter. ✨ As His light pierces through every bit of darkness, it brings His life and love into the situation and into your heart. And in all of this, we have an unshakable hope that God loves us and is working everything together for our good (see Rom. 8:28).

We want to encourage you to look around for those who are surrounded by darkness and in search of hope. During this time when we can do so many things unhindered by time and space (such as watching service online!), why not invite a friend or someone you cross paths with to attend a service or church gathering online?

This Christmas season, be bold, reach out and gift a friend/loved one/colleague/neighbor a personal encounter with the Light of the world who came to bring joy, love, and peace. You never know, they might just receive a rhema word for their situation or have the encounter with Jesus that they need right now! ?

We are praying and believing with you that even as you gather the courage to share Jesus with your friends, their hearts will be open and softened to receive Him. ❤️

One NBA player lords over LeBron James.


Carmelo Anthony rules Cleveland's hoops King.

"I know he hates losing to me," Anthony said with a laugh.

Anthony scored 27 points, All-Star sidekick Allen Iverson added 25 and the Denver Nuggets rolled to a 113-83 win Sunday night over the injury-depleted Cavaliers.

Anthony, who got to rest in the fourth quarter, improved to 8-2 in his pro career against good friend James, who scored 30 points -- in three quarters -- but got little help from a Cleveland team missing four key players, including two starters.

Though shorthanded, the Cavs have been able to get by playing good defense and came in 16-5 since Dec. 25. But from the opening tip on they didn't do nearly enough to slow the Nuggets, who handed Cleveland its worst home loss since April 5, 2005.

Denver led by 11 points after one quarter, 18 at halftime and pushed its advantage to 26 by the end of the third. At the end of that period, James stormed off the court, took a seat at the far end of Cleveland's bench and didn't take part in coach Mike Brown's huddle before the fourth quarter began.

"It was definitely frustrating," James said. "We know we can play better. It was one game. That's something we can fix."

As a displeased James sat alone on the bench and stared straight ahead, Cavaliers guard Damon Jones let his teammates know that their performance was unacceptable by yelling at all of them.

"I just think something had to be said at that point," Jones said. "No big thing."

Although he was looking in James' direction, Jones said his comments were intended for everyone wearing white jerseys.

"In those situations you have to band together as a team. I wasn't singling anybody out," Jones said. "Everybody, including myself, we have to find ways to fight through situations like that."

James didn't play in the fourth quarter when the Cavs fell behind by 37 and played all their reserves.

Anthony, coming off a 49-point performance in a win against Washington, went 11-of-19 from the floor and added eight rebounds in 32 minutes. He, too, spent the fourth quarter on the sideline, savoring Denver's fifth straight win over Cleveland.

"It was one of the most complete games we've had," Anthony said. "We didn't come in here expecting a blowout, but that's what happened."

Iverson added 13 assists and Marcus Camby 17 rebounds for Denver, which shot 63 percent in the first quarter.

"We jumped on them from the beginning," Iverson said. "We took advantage of the shots they were missing. We were able to do everything right on both ends of the floor."

The Cavaliers were again a shell of themselves as injuries continued to plague the Eastern Conference champions.

Drew Gooden missed his third game in a row with a strained right groin and Daniel Gibson, the team's top long-range shooter, sat out his second straight because of a strained hamstring. On top of that, Cleveland didn't have forward Anderson Varejao (sprained ankle) or swingman Sasha Pavlovic (sprained foot).

Also, Jones went to the locker room in the fourth quarter with a sprained ankle and center Zydrunas Ilgauskas was also forced to spend the final 12 minutes getting treatment for back spasms.

The Cavs, however, were hurting long before that.

Denver led 63-45 at halftime and quickly upped its lead to 23 after Iverson opened the third quarter with a 3-pointer and Kenyon Martin scored inside. James helped trim Denver's lead to 15, but Iverson and Anthony never relaxed and the Nuggets pushed their lead to 90-64 entering the fourth.

The Nuggets beat the Cavs 122-100 earlier this season.

"It's disappointing they whooped our behinds twice like this," Cavs coach Mike Brown said. "I don't think we can look in the mirror and say we fought tonight."

Denver coach George Karl took his team's lopsided win in stride, knowing the Cavaliers weren't at full strength.

"They're so banged up and beat up," he said. "They couldn't make a shot and we had an easier game because we did some good things. It was one of those games where can go home and say we played, but they were shorthanded too."

Game notes
James was pleased Anthony was named a starter for next weekend's All-Star Game, the first time Denver's forward has gotten the nod. "People realize he's one of the best players in our league, definitely one of the best scorers," James said. "It took five years to finally get the opportunity." ... Nuggets big man Steven Hunter missed his second straight game with a sore right knee. ... Gibson's injury could keep him out of next weekend's All-Star activities in New Orleans. He's scheduled to play in the rookie-sophomore challenge and 3-point shootout. ... Pavlovic, who could miss two months, is scheduled to have a cast removed in the next few days. "Finally," he said. "I'm sick of it."
