More or Less of Me

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.

Demands, Temper and Drama

March 7, 2024 / Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / letter-admin / 2/5, 3 John 1:4 I have no greater joy than this to hear of my children walking in the truth., but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever., demands and drama, faithfulness, Galatians 5:19-21 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, goodness, Hebrews 12:7 It is for discipline that you endure, joy, kindness, listen to me, Matthew 6:13 And do not lead us into temptation, patience, peace, Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go [teaching him to seek God’s wisdom and will for his abilities and talents], Psalm 34:11 Come, you children

Untrained children try to control others through demands, temper, and drama. They must be disciplined or they will grow to be a partner of the destroyer. They will blindly leave a path of pain and destruction behind them rather than My mercy and grace. They teach fear and pride rather than peace. They demand rather than follow Me. Do not do as they do. Repent and humbly ask Me to show you the way of My Love. I will deliver you from evil and turn you away from the tempter. Repentance begins the process. You will gain peace and real Life. Matthew 6:13 And do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go [teaching him to seek God’s wisdom and will for his abilities and talents],Even when he is old he will not depart from it. Psalm 34:11 Come, you children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD. Hebrews 12:7 It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 3 John 1:4 I have no greater joy than this, to hear of my children walking in the truth. Galatians 5:19-21 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

Spirit of Jezebel

Control over others, demanding, dominating through anger, self-righteous justifications, criticism, and threats is the work of the deceiver. Deceiving spirits cooperate with fear and pride to lie to you and make you think your controlling and demanding is for the good. Do not be fooled. I never work through self-righteous control, fear, and pride. Displays of drama come from your flesh cooperating with evil justifications. Romans 16:17-18 I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. Galatians 5:19-21 19 Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 1 Thessalonians 4:6 and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sister. The Lord will punish all those who commit such sins, as we told you and warned you before. Romans 16:18 Such people are not serving Christ our Lord; they are serving their own personal interests. By smooth talk and glowing words they deceive innocent people. Luke 16:15 He said to them, You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of others, but God knows your hearts. What people value highly is detestable in God’s sight. Ephesians 6:16-17 In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Learn the power of silence. When your mind roams into enemy territory bring your inner self back before My throne and enter into silence before Me. Peaceful silence before My throne restores your soul. Silence in My Presence calms your spirit. Silence in My Arms allows Me to fill you with My Spirit of Love.

Psalm 46:10 Be still, and know that I am God (the word, ‘know,’ means to experience). John 14:17 17 even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will beg in you. 20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you. Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. James 3:5 5 So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! 6And the tongue is a fire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell Deuteronomy 27:9 Then Moses and the Levitical priests said to all Israel, “Keep silence and hear, O Israel: this day you have become the people of the Lord your God. 2 Kings 18:36 But the people were silent and answered him not a word, for the king’s command was, “Do not answer him.” Psalm 4:4 Be angry, and do not sin; ponder in your own hearts on your beds, and be silent.

A Consuming Fire

For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, 12/21, are you not worldly?, but envy rots the bones., but who can stand before jealousy?, do not boast about it or deny the truth, faithfulness, forbearance, Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, goodness, it does not boast, it is not proud, James 3:14 But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, joy, kindness, love is kind. It does not envy, peace, Proverbs 14:30 A heart at peace gives life to the body, Proverbs 27:4 Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming

Jealousy is an all consuming fire. The irony of jealousy is that it destroys both the one who is jealous and the object of that one’s desire. Proverbs 14:30 A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones. Proverbs 27:4 Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy? James 3:14 But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. 15 Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.16 For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. 1 Corinthians 3:3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans? 1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud Galatians 5:22 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.

What is on My Mind and Heart? You are. Every time you glance My Way, listen for My Voice, search to sense My Presence, it makes My Heart skip for joy.

And behold, a voice came to him and said, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”… Acts 7:3 When Moses saw it, he marveled at the sight; and as he approached to look more closely, there came the voice of the Lord Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God.”

Serve with all My Love those difficult ones. Serve them in peaceful silence. Talk to Me as you serve them. Let’s stand in the gap for them together, while We humbly serve them. Pray and serve those who have hurt you. Do good to them. Ask Me and I will show you what We can do together for them. Bind dark spirits that prevent you from seeing them as I see them. Loose My forgiveness and peace. Serve. Bring peace and good will into each life, no matter what the history has been. Do this with Me. You will then have your reward . . . more of My Presence and joy. One step of obedience at a time. I Love you! This is called becoming a “living sacrifice” that sends a sweet aroma to the heavens. 2 Corinthians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, 4 who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 5 For as we share abundantly in Christ’s sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too. Romans 1:1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Malachi 3:17-18 They shall be mine, says the LORD of hosts, in the day when I make up my treasured possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his son who serves him. Then once more you shall see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve him. John 12:26 If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.
