For those of you who are regular readers of my blogs will find that most of what I write comes from the heart as well as the revelations from God. I am a true speaker with no shame in my game. What you see is what you get. As a reminder to the quote in my profile from another site it states: "If God created me and accepted me the way he made me why can't you!?"

I personally live to tell the truth and live to please God and NOT man. I have come to know that man will fail you everytime but God is just. He will never fail us but we sometimes fail God. But God loves us so much that he gives us his grace and mercy daily. What an awesome God we serve. What I'd like to get at is how some people seem to forget that they are no higher than the next person, just because of the walk they walk. Just because another person may not walk in Christ the same way you do doesn't mean they don't love God or live for him. It doesn't say that they don't have a personal relationship with God. Who are we to judge another for the way they work out their salvation with God? God knows who are his own.

We need to get our eyes off people and focus more on God and our own personal salvation through him. Why are we so judgmental of others? Just because you may choose to run around trying to people please in the eyes of the church doesn't make you anymore of a better person or Christian than the one who seeks God in their own personal prayer closet. Yes the Lord does say come into the temple and wroship him with other believers but sometimes people can make that so difficult for others to do so, so in turn they choose to worship in their own way, but yet they still acknowledge and worship God.

As long as a person confess with their mouth Jesus Christ as their Lord and beleive on him, he will do the rest in his time with that individual. We have no heaven or hell to put another in and besides who told you that you were so righteous that you have a confirmed reservation in heaven. We all have fallen and come short to the glory of God even in the church. Whatever happened to praying for one another when you see a brethern falling? What happen to the compassion we are to have and feel for one another when we know that our fellow sister or brother is going through something? What do we do?, we mock them, laugh at them and talk about them behind their backs run around lying and coming up with our own judgements of that person. Is that what Jesus did? Aren't we to do as he did those of us who say we are Christlike?

I remember as a kid I would always hear my mother saying this in conversations with other: "Misery loves company." I now know what that statement means. Some people when they are going through something or are in a place in their lives where they are not happy like to cause others to be in the same state their in so they try to pull them into their camp. Why are we so mean in the way of trying to bring unhappiness to another just because we're unhappy? Or maybe just because another may appear to be happy and blessed a person wants to disrupt that joy in another persons life? Why do we go around spreading untruths about others trying to make ourselves look bigger or better knowing deep within we are just full of lies and deceit. Man may not know, but God knows, he knows and sees all and knows the intentions of each persons heart. Doesn't the word of the Lord tell us that God looks on the inward part of man?

God looks at the intentions of ones heart. What are the motives or intentions of ones actions. Some may be doing things to please man, but if it doesn't line up with what God says God will judge you and bring a judgment that NO MAN can remove. We need to stop trying to please man and remember why we are called, who called us and with what purpose your calling is for. Just as he has said "Many are called but few are chosen." We tend to get defocused off of our calling because we get so caught up in what someone else is doing. What we all need to remember is that on that Day of Judgment when God asks the question "why did or didn't you do what you were called to do?" our excuse will not be good enough. We won't be able to say well because sister so and so made me do it or brother so and so told me that he didn't think..... it s not about man its about what God's says.

I had a small chat with a person a few days ago and it was so funny to me because this person called me, but really didn't have much of a conversation. I figure if an individual calls another they have something to talk about or they may want to see what you have to say. What was the intentions of the phone call? In my own personal observation I knew that this person was only calling to see what I may had to say about what was going on in our ministry. I have nothing to say people will be people. I can only do and be "Me". I love and pray for our pastor and the first family. Even though he is the man of God he too can be blindsided by the devil in which he has also said himself. The devil can and will use anyone. I just pray he will be more alert as to who he surrounds himself with because there are some snakes in the pulpit that I don't believe he is aware of, but prayerfully God will reveal it to him soon enough if he hasn't done so already. But I did share with them what God had been doing with me spiritually. But what got me about this person was they really feel that they along with a few others feel that God is only speaking to and through them. As I went on to speak about what I was doing which was searching the scriptures on something the Lord had spoken into my spirit, they made the comment, "Oh so you sit at home and work out your own personal salvation." I laughed and said "yeah", but later the Holy Spirit brought that person's comment back to me and showed me that, the person was trying to be funny and signifying that I was in my own thinking. Now that was the Holy Spirit bringing that revelation to me about that person.

The Spirit of the Lord has repeatedly told me not to fret of evil doers. As well as told me that "If He be for me, who can be against me." In that I rejoice. I don't worry about what man will try to do or try to bring up against me because God has told me that it is he who fights my battles. He is not a respector of person and he will rain on the just as well as the unjust. But me personally am not one who like to go around making problems for others. I try to live and let live, now if I'm lied on thats a different story I know I may be contridicting myself when I just said that God fights my battles for me but lies I can't take. "DON'T LIE ON ME!"

But I'm learning with each new day to allow God to handle all my issues for me. Trying to live honestly and be honest is a real battle. I often think about Jesus and how he went through all sorts of hell trying to be right and do the right thing going from city to city trying to spread the gospel and love throughout the land healing and working miracles and even still the people received him not. I often feel like that persecuted for trying to live a honest life. I find that even in the church people will try to cause you to fall. Running around bucking for positions and trying to be more than they are. That's just not me, if God has it for me, it is for me and He will make a way for me to have it why buck for it. He said your gift will make room for you. Personally I like being in the background you can see so much more from behind the scenes that many miss for being so upclose and personal. God is a wonder.

I thank him for his revelations, his wisdom and knowledge as well as the visions and dreams he gives me to carry on in him. He has truly stirred up the gifts within me and that was one of my personal prayers to stir up the gifts in me. God deals with me a lot in visions and dreams. I have so much to share but I am not released to share it all. Sometimes God will give us things that are just for us and not for us to share, but for our own personal knowledge to strenghten us in our walk as well as gifts for the works he has laid out for us to do. I often pray that God will remind his people that HE will meet us where we are. It doesn't take some of what most believe it does for God to use a person. If he used a jack-ass he can use anyone he so chooses to.

In my close I just pray that God will shed mercy on those who are trying to lead his chosen one astray and doing deceitful things to them as well as dancing and prancing in their wrong doing. Touch not my anointed, and do my prophet no harm. Thus saith the Lord of host.
