Darkness or Light, Death or Life? You Choose . . .

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , ,

No matter what you believe, there are only two states . . . you are either full of Me or you are full of darkness. There are no other states of being. Do not be fooled. Don’t be cheated from reality. Examine your inner life and you will know. Me or them. Life or death. I Am the Truth and My Name is Jesus Christ. There is no other Name of Truth.  If you have no peace then you do not have Me. If you do not have Me, you have them. John 10:11 I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His [own] life for the sheep. 12 But the hired man [who merely serves for wages], who is neither the shepherd nor the owner of the sheep, when he sees the wolf coming, deserts the flock and runs away; and the wolf snatches the sheep and scatters them. 13 The man runs because he is a hired hand [who serves only for wages] and is not concerned about the [safety of the] sheep. 14 I am the Good Shepherd, and I know [without any doubt those who are] My own and My own know Me [and have a deep, personal relationship with Me]— 15 even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father—and I lay down My [very own] life [sacrificing it] for the benefit of the sheep. 16 I have other sheep [beside these] that are not of this fold. I must bring those also, and they will listen to My voice and pay attention to My call, and they will become one flock with one Shepherd. 17 For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My [own] life so that I may take it back. 18 No one takes it away from Me, but I lay it down voluntarily. I am authorized and have power to lay it down and to give it up, and I am authorized and have power to take it back. This command I have received from My Father. James 1:16 Do not be misled, my beloved brothers and sisters. 17 Every good thing given and every perfect gift is from above; it comes down from the Father of lights [the Creator and Sustainer of the heavens], in whom there is no variation [no rising or setting] or shadow cast by His turning [for He is perfect and never changes]. 18 It was of His own will that He gave us birth [as His children] by the word of truth, so that we would be a kind of first fruits of His creatures [a prime example of what He created to be set apart to Himself—sanctified, made holy for His divine purposes]. 2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you fail to meet the test!

You Are Not Alone-Ever

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , , , , , , ,

Can you be close to something yet far from it at the same time? Can a room be full of light yet still dark? Can you be near to Real Life, Real Love, Real Truth yet carry resentment at the same time? Can you be obedient to My will for your life while following your own plans? Can you talk with Me while not hear from Me? If you do not hear Me then who are you listening to? Your thoughts are always controlled by a force. They are not neutral. They are controlled by a living force . . . either death or life. There is nothing in-between. Either you are talking to Me, Jesus Christ, who Am in the Father and Holy Spirit, or you are talking to darkness and demons. There is no other option. You are not alone . . . ever. 1 John 4:1-2 1 My dear friends, don’t believe everything you hear. Carefully weigh and examine what people tell you. Not everyone who talks about God comes from God. There are a lot of lying preachers loose in the world. 2 Here’s how you test for the genuine Spirit of God. Everyone who confesses openly his faith in Jesus Christ – the Son of God, who came as an actual flesh-and-blood person – comes from God and belongs to God. John 8:12 Again Jesus spoke to them saying, I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. Deuteronomy 13:4 It is the Lord your God you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him. Jeremiah 26:3-6 Perhaps they will listen and everyone will turn from his evil way, that I may repent of the calamity which I am planning to do to them because of the evil of their deeds. And you will say to them, Thus says the LORD, If you will not listen to Me, to walk in My law which I have set before you, to listen to the words of My servants the prophets, whom I have been sending to you again and again, but you have not listened; then I will make this house like Shiloh, and this city I will make a curse to all the nations of the earth John 10:27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me Luke 10:16 The one who listens to you listens to Me, and the one who rejects you rejects Me; and he who rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me. Proverbs 8:32-24 Now therefore, O sons, listen to me, For blessed are they who keep my ways. Heed instruction and be wise, And do not neglect it. Blessed is the man who listens to me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at my doorposts. 2 Corinthians 6:14 For what partnership can righteousness have with wickedness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness? James 1:22-24 But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. Romans 2:13 for it is not the hearers of the Law who are just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified.

No Neutrality

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , ,

When you are filled with Me, you literally feel Me Loving you inside you. My Love is not just a concept. It is felt and detected. If you feel fear, anxiety, worries, angers, bitterness  then you have an imposter god . . . which are demons. There is no such thing as “working on getting better.” I do not share you with darkness. There is no neutrality. You cannot have an empty soul. It is either full of light or darkness, Truth or lies, Me or demons. No exceptions. James 1:17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, with whom there is no change or shifting shadow. James 3:14-15, 17 But if you harbor in your hearts bitter jealousy and selfish ambition, do not boast in it or deny the truth. 15 Such wisdom does not come from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.  17 But the wisdom from above is first of all pure, then peaceable, gentle, accommodating, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial, and sincere. 18 Peacemakers who sow in peace reap the fruit of righteousness. 2 Corinthians 6:14 For what partnership can righteousness have with wickedness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness? Ephesians 5:11 Have no fellowship with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 1 John 1:6 If we say we have fellowship with Him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.

Dark to Light

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , ,

I Am the only way to Life, Light, and Love for your dying, tired, starving soul. There is no other option or substitute. Examine your heart. Rethink your ways. Look at your life. Have you been fooled? Have you substituted or exchanged a lie for the real thing? If you have given yourself over to real Life then you would know it. There would not be any doubt. When you marry someone you know it. When you marry Me you know it. When you Live with Truth you know it because you are no longer afraid. I Am perfect Love and I Love you completely. John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. John 1:4 In Him was life, and that life was the light of men. John 1:14 The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father full of grace and truth. Acts 17:28 For in Him we live and move and exist [that is, in Him we actually have our being], as even some of your own poets have said, For we also are His children.

Empty or Full?

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , , , ,

Are you lonely and empty inside? Then you never had Me inside. Ask Me and only Me to be inside. I do not share you with other soulmates. You must want them out. Kick them out and ask Me alone to fill you. If you did not have Life then you had death . . . no matter how “religious” you were. Few have the Truth. Many have deadly substitutes. Don’t be fooled. Mark 10:29-30 Truly I tell you, said Jesus, no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for My sake and for the gospel 30 will fail to receive a hundredfold in the present age—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and fields, along with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life.… Mark 8:35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it. Matthew 10:37 Anyone who loves his father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me Isaiah 26:9 My soul longs for You in the night; indeed, my spirit within me diligently seeks You. Matthew 6:19-21 Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.

A Terrorist in Disguise

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , ,

Anger seems to be an ally and a friend. It comes with a handshake in agreement. But anger is a terrorist in disguise. He pretends to help but his mission is to blow up everything in your life. Treat anger as the enemy he is. Don’t open the door when he comes. Genesis 4:7 …sin lies at the door and its desire is for you. But you should rule over it. Proverbs 29:22 An angry man stirs up strife, And a furious man abounds in transgression.

More or Less of Me

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Examine your heart, thoughts, choices, desires, and emotions. If you do not have more Love, more peace, more stillness, more patience, more kindness, more concern for others, more forgiveness for those in your life, more compassion for those who have hurt you, more humility, more love-filled Wisdom, more direction, more of My Presence that is detectable within you, more of My Voice in your thoughts, more purity in your soul today than you had two months ago, two weeks ago, two days ago, then you do not have Me. Galatians 5:16-26 16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. 19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery, 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.

Real Freedom

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , , , , ,

Desire, with all your being, for your self, hate-filled thoughts, anger, impatience, blaming others, jealousies, lusts, self-righteousness, religion, me-focused existence to grow smaller and smaller until they die. Desire that I, with My Love for others, My Peace, My cleanness, My clearness, My Light-weightness, My self-control, and My freedom to Be with pure Love of Our Father’s Presence, fill you instead. Joshua 24:14 Now then,  Joshua continued, honor the LORD and serve him sincerely and faithfully. Get rid of the gods which your ancestors used to worship in Mesopotamia and in Egypt, and serve only the LORD. But if you don’t want to worship the LORD, then choose here and now!  Will you worship the same idols your ancestors did? Or since you’re living on land that once belonged to the Amorites, maybe you’ll worship their gods. As for my family and me, we will serve the LORD. 1 Samuel 12:14 All will go well with you if you honor the LORD your God, serve him, listen to him, and obey his commands, and if you and your king follow him. Matthew 11:28-30 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. 1 Thessalonians 5:24 Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass Psalm 145:8 The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth. Ephesians 1:8I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened, so that you will know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 1 Thessalonians 4:7 For God has not called us to impurity but to consecration [to dedicate ourselves to the most thorough purity].

Divine Destiny

Ask Me to make you into your destiny. Ask Me to lead your thoughts into conversation back and forth with Me rather than with your sinful flesh and demons. Ask Me to quiet your soul and give you real rest. My answer to these requests is. “YES! I love you!” Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Habakkuk 2:3 For still the vision awaits its appointed time; it hastens to the end—it will not lie. If it seems slow, wait for it; it will surely come; it will not delay. Psalm 138:8 The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands. Proverbs 16:3 Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established. Romans 8:28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. Jeremiah 1:5 Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations. 1 Corinthians 2:7-9 But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages for our glory. None of the rulers of this age understood this, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”— Job 23:14 For he will complete what he appoints for me, and many such things are in his mind.

From Bondage to Freedom

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , , , ,

Return to Me and I will return to you. Cleanse yourself with My Love-Blood. Ask Me to take over your thoughts. I must have your permission. Ask Me to teach you new ways of thinking. Ask Me to make you brand new. Hate the old. Desire the new. Hate the dirty. Desire the clean. Hate the slavery to sin. Love the freedom to be beautiful. Hate the destruction and chaos. Love the nourishing and simplicity. Hate the out-of-control living. Love the peace. Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a right and steadfast spirit within me. Ezekiel 36:26 And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. Luke 7:47 Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
