I've often wondered, why the blame? It's baffled me because the enemy of our soul is a diabolical liar and the father of, he is a deceiver! Therefore, why would we place blame on God for the actions of others such as, gossip, and judgmental opinions of others, etc.? Yet that is exactly what happens, even placing blame on Him for physical things such as diseases or any kind of sickness, the loss of a love one or friend when the word clearly states that Jesus came to give us life and that more abundantly. John 10:10 

So God gets the blame for the actions of others? Sadly in many situations that is the case. Decades ago I was in church worshiping the Lord when apparently my actions of worship were not expectable to a few members of the congregation. The next thing I knew they were trying to cast a devil out of me, the pastor of the church did nothing to stop them. I have no words to describe how I felt except confusion and spiritually raped. As soon as I was able to get out from their grip, I ran up the isle and out of the church. I can only sum that horrible experience up to the ignorance and spiritual immaturity of the ones doing the deed, and puppets doing satan's bidding. But I did not blame God, in fact, I went back to church the next time the doors opened. However, I left that church a short time after. I heard of a church where God raised a baby from the dead, that is were I want to be! Where His presence was and His power flowed! Some years later the other church closed its doors.

To me, being a Christian is to be like Jesus, that happens through time spent with Him, having a relationship with Him. 

I do understand people get hurt from other church goers, "christians". What they are actually being hurt from is a spirit that was given into that was working through those that offended-hurt them. 

If people would realize Ephesians 6:12 and John 10:10 were for real and not just words in a book, perhaps again, God would not get the blame. 

When I was a little girl about eight or nine, I was invite to a friends house after church. I was surprised witness my friends mom was not the same way at home as she was in church. One person was seen in church and a different one was seen at home. I have witnessed this more times than I care to count. In my own life I have noticed if I am not spending quality time with God that I not only desire, but need, my attitude starts to slip. I need quality time with God on a daily basis, I can't live without it! 

How many hide behind the cross instead of kneeling in front of it? I know people hide behind the "Christian facade" to get what they want (what spirit they gave into) lust, greed-love of money, perversion, power, position, control, etc. But that isn't Gods Character! He is a giver, not a taker, He Is Love, joy, peace, strength, wholeness-nothing missing nothing broken in every area! That's what He wants to be in our lives!

God gives us all a free will, yet gets the blame for the actions of others. The blame is going in the wrong direction! God doesn't have love, He is Love! 

There is No good in satan, he hates us because we are Gods creation-made in His image, and he hates God! So don't be fooled by the actions of others by placing the blame on God, instead run to Him!

Some years ago there was a situation in my life, I was ticked off at God. I said "God you knew...!" "You want me to do what?" I had a choice to make, blame Him because He knew, or do what He asked me to do even though He knew. I chose to do what He asked. Because of the choice I made Holy Spirit was able to open my eyes to my part-giving into a spirit that caused the disaster that was my life and turn everything around to the glory of God! 

The enemy-satan, wants us to play the blame game and point our finger at God, but when satan is pointing the finger at God, notice how many fingers are pointing back, in the guilty direction! 

Blessings!

After listening to some messages on YouTube it dropped in my heart-spirit to write about a subject of the spirit realm, I believe I have barely made it through the first layer yet the more I learn the more I'm finding I need to learn. 

The spirit realm is a subject that intrigues me. I used to be oblivious to it as I am finding most people are, unless one is a part of the occult. I believe it's a subject many pastors are either oblivious to, or don't want to tackle the teachings.   Shout out to those who will! 

Years ago it was placed on my heart to write and self publish a book, which I did. That step of obedience led to several other books that were placed on my heart to write, one being, Married to the Unknown, a book about the spirit realm. Not yet published. 

Through the years of typing what I believe God had placed on my heart it took me on a journey of my past that opened my eyes to the unseen realm of the spirit, and what I had really been fighting against. The problem was, I was fighting the wrong way-in the natural, not in the spirit.

Ephesians 6:12  For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. NLT 

Revelations 20:1-3  And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the keys of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil, and  satan, and bound him a thousand years. 3 and cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations more,... KJV

One of the ways I learn is by listening to teachings from men and women that are more mature spiritually than myself. Many times God will answer questions I have asked Him through these teachings. 

The scripture in Ephesians 6:12 begins with, For we are fighting against flesh and blood enemies, but against principalities and powers... 

Holy Spirit has emphasized that scripture to me on more than one occasion. Especially when something was done that hurt me, I am used by a person, or mad at the actions of someone. He reminds me although the person gave into the evil spirit (whatever that spirit may be) a lying, gossiping, stealing, lustful, belittling, etc spirit, it is the spirit working through the person that is attacking me, not the person themselves. 

I used to wonder about my inner circle-the people in my life and the why's. What I found  out in my studies answered my questions, yet led me back to my upbringing and those that were allowed in our home-the spirits that were allowed in our home with the people that were allowed in our home. The spirits became familiar-what I was used to being around, therefore those type of people-spirits were what was attracted to me and me to them. I am by no means saying all of the people in my life were-are bad, because that is not the case, in 98% of the cases anyhow. 

What I am saying is that there are evil spirits in our mist with assignments from satan himself to pressure us. If we give into the pressure whatever it may be, we have opened the door for the enemy to steal, kill, and destroy our lives and the lives of those around us. I know it's true! I've felt the pressure as I was growing up to engage in things I thank God I resisted! And as an adult in things I didn't resist that I'm thankful for His forgiveness!

Even our words, once negative words are spoken it gives the enemy an open door into our lives, and again, the lives of those around us. Once again, I've been there! I know what I am typing about! It took repentance, prayer, fasting, unconditional love and decreeing only what God said about my situation to bring restoration. I am SO SO  grateful to God for healing my broken life! 

Everyone has a choice to make, give into pressure-evil spirits, or not.(remember, spirits use people!) It may not be easy, and it may be popular to just give in, but then, we have to count the cost of giving in. Many, I know, regret giving in to pressure some have paid with their lives. It's a bold statement I know, it's not only sad, but it's true, unfortunately. 

We all live with the decisions we make, be it good or bad. My heart is that we know that there is an invisible spirit world with not only demon spirits, but angels as well! If our eyes were opened to it we would be amazed at what we see! 

Psalms 91 states that He gives His angel charge over us to guard us, I am SO thankful for that! 

1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walking about, seeking whom he may devour.

The devil knows much of our business because of words we have spoken, his imps are listening to every word we speak just waiting on a chance to an open door to fulfill their assignment against us. 

Be careful of what and who you are listening to! Satan owns the airways, he is the prince of the power of the air. Ephesians 2:2

Blessings!

As I was thumbing through the pages of my journal I came across a bit of a study I did on salvation, what does it mean to be saved besides excepting Jesus as the savior of my life and going to heaven when I leave this world?

Years ago I was briefly listening to a woman pastor encourage people as she defined salvation and its benefits. that brief encouragement opened my eyes and put me on a path of my own path to receive revelation of salvation.

To be saved-a Christian, is not about a bunch of rules that need to be followed, or about being good enough-that's religion. 

Jesus was talking in John 10:10, He said, The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that more abundantly. NKJV

John 10:10 ....My purpose is to them a more rich and satisfying life. NLT

In the Hebrew translation #3444 salvation is defined as; something saved-deliverance, victory, prosperity, , deliverance, health, , helping, salvation, save, saving, (health), welfare.

#8668 Hebrew- rescue, deliverance, help, safety, salvation, victory.

In my notes I wrote, Rick Rennet-salvation/brought to a place of safety-saved, to be delivered. It's my understanding Rick Renner has studied both Greek and Hebrew for years. 

The Blessing, as I understand it, is the power of God upon human flesh to do what only He can do. While the curse, is the total opposite. It's what satan brought upon the earth when Adam fell by disobeying God-giving into satan and eating the apple from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which gave satan the power on the earth to steal, kill, and destroy. Genesis 2:17, Genesis 3:1-7

The Blessing is a part of salvation, to me, it's anything good. It's health, prosperity in every area of our lives, it's joy and peace of mind. Psalms 51:12 reads, Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, And uphold me with Your generous Spirit. 

Salvation means safety- I decree Psalms 91 over me and my family on a daily basis. Job 22:28 reads, You will also decree a thing, And it will be established for you; so light will shine on your ways.

Although salvation is a free gift, we take it-receive it by faith. Romand 5:17 For the sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule one many. But even greater is God's wonderful grace and His gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through the one man, Jesus Christ.    Hebrew 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith.

Salvation is a free give, we open our mouth and decree it-speak it out. Proverbs 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue.

Romans 4:17 That is what the Scripture means when God told him, "I have made you the father of many nations." This happened because Abraham believed in the God who brings the dead back to life and who creates new things out of nothing. NLT

As I was typing Romans 4:17 Holy Spirit showed me that there had been dead relationships in my life that I believed God to breath life back into as I decreed His Word in faith. Ezekiel 37:9-10 What was seemingly death was brought back to life through my faith and decree of Gods Word. That's a part of salvation also. 

Psalms 103:2-5 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: 3 Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, 4 Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, 5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagles.

Psalms 23:1 The Lord is my Shepard I shall not want. 

I used to believe that because a scripture was in the Bible it would automatically happen and wonder why it hadn't,  not realizing that there was Gods part and my part. Now that I am learning the truth-the process of how Gods Kingdom works, it has set me free to receive His promises-His salvation, I have received many of His benefits! With many many more to come! 

Blessings!

Luke 4:5-7   Then the devil, taking Him up on a mountain, showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moments time. 6. And said to Him, "All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. 7. Therefore, if You will worship before me, all will be Yours. 

 In May of Two thousand Twenty as I was reading Luke 4:5-7 a few things dropped in my heart. Jesus could have taken what seemed the easy way out, bow to satan, and possibly been given the kingdoms of the world-media, education, politics (government), music, etc. I say possibly because he is a liar, there is no truth in him!

John 8:44  You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it. 

Instead, Jesus chose to complete His passion and go the way of the cross. Yes, it would mean ridicule, slander, physical pain and torture but in the end His decision would set us free! We would have the choice-chance to be a prisoner of satan no more!  

Like Jesus, we I'm sure have all been at a crossroad in our lives, perhaps several crossroads. Do we give into the temptation (pressure)-the imitation-the easy way out? Or do we say no to the one who has power, but no authority over us except that which we give him. In Luke 4 satan himself said he had power, he said nothing about authority. Jesus knowing he had power did not question him. 

Genesis 1:26   Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion (Rulership, lordship, ownership, stewardship, authority)....

We will be tempted with what is pleasing to the eye, Genesis 3:6  so the woman saw that the tree was good  for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of it's fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.  The question is, will we give into what seems pleasing, or the easy way out? Or, will we stay the course seeing what may not be the easy way, but the right way? 

I know I have been there, I chose to follow the way I sensed Holy Spirit guiding me. Was it easy? Nope! but I knew I needed to follow the peace and trust God no matter what! Jeremiah 18:6 declares, "Look, as the clay is in the potters hand, so are you in My hand...

Just as Jesus chose to trust His Father, I needed to and need to do the same!

John 10:10 The thief does not cone except to steal, and kill, and destroy. I have come that hey may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

Satan hates us, his whole goal is to steal, kill and destroy! If we give into the pressure, hate and disfunction, and lies, he's won. He will steal-he already has in a big way! Look at this nation and our education system, people drunk with power who are following their father the devil that want to, and have already killed in ways most are waking up too, yet some are still oblivious.  

Satan may have power, but we have authority in the name and by the blood of Jesus to stand up and take our nation, education, media, and government back! 

Let's take a stand and take our place in Jesus Name!!! 

Blessings!

A couple of things I have noticed over the years while on my journey of getting to know God for myself, one is that, when decreeing His Word, it's not a one time thing as I have thought most go my life, but continual. Also, things I decreed-Gods Word I have spoken in faith years ago are now manifesting.

Daniel 10:12-14 (An angel talking to Daniel) Then he said to me, "Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words. 13 But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold Micheal, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia. 14 Now I have come to made you understand what happened to your people in the latter days, for the vision refers to many days yet to come.

Daniel the tenth chapter is a good example of the importance of fervent prayer and fasting. The second heaven is were the fight to keep our prayer hindered takes place. That's why it is so important to keep decreeing Gods Word in faith, it gives our angels strength to fight for us to get our answers to us. 

Psalms 103:20 Bless the Lord, you His angels, Who excel in strength, who do His word, Heeding the voice of His word.

This verse tells me the more I decree Gods word (in faith) it gives His angels strength to fight for me to bring it to pass-to manifest it. So I need to keep decreeing and decreeing and decreeing until His word is manifests. John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us...

Hebrews 1:14 Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation. 

It's the angels job to bring Gods Word to pass in our lives. It's our job to decree Gods Word giving angels strength to fight to see to it that Gods Word comes to pass in our lives which-enforces Jesus finished work on the cross.

A couple of weeks ago as I was painting the outside of a house my husband and I purchased to fix-up and flip-sell. The ladder went one way and I went the other, about 6' down, landing on my right hip. I was mad knowing I did not have time for any set backs. Placing my right hand on my right hip I repeated, the blood, the blood, the blood, applying the blood os Jesus to my hip-no broken bones! Revelations 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and. by the word of their testimony...

I felt it was an attack of the enemy, the ladder was sturdy, when the ladder was tipping if felt as though it was being tipped over.

Psalms 91:11 for He will order His angels to protect your wherever you go.  New Living Translation

I decree Psalms 91 over me and my family daily. 

There is no doubt in my mind that an angel was right there to lighten the impact when I landed on the ground! 

I am seeing things manifest-happen now that I started decreeing in some cases years ago. What that does is it gives me faith in His Word I decree over my situation, state, etc. I know the decrees God has placed on my heart will come to pass. It also keeps me growing in faith in His Word. 

Romans 1:17 For in the the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "The just shall live by faith."

To me the faithfulness of Gos is revealed from faith to faith. As I grow in faith in His Word it builds my faith to believe for bigger-greater things God has placed on my heart to accomplish. Everything He has placed on my heart in the natural is impossible, however, with God all things are possible. 

Mark 10:27 But Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible."

Notice Jesus saith "With God" so if I try to do something without God that is impossible, it WILL be impossible! I have tried to do the impossible thinking God was in it when He wasn't, I fell flat on my face so to speak. However, since that epic failure years ago Holy Spirit has taught me so much more about the ways of God and how His Kingdom works. He is teaching me how to know the voice of God and follow His leading. I have learned some really tough lessons along the way, a lot of what I have learned is about the life and death that is in the power of my tongue-which are my decrees! Am I going to say what God says which is life, or give into every negative thought the enemy places in my mind to decree which is  death?

I've been there, I've spoken death over a situation in my life, it took repentance, obedience,  prayer, fasting and decreeing Gods Word over the situation to turn it around. Holy Spirit pointed out tot me it was the words I spoke that opened the door to the enemy. Lord being my helper I will never open doors to the enemy again! 

Blessings!

Your friend in Christ,
