Abide in Me

By
abide in me

Believing that Messiah must abide in our hearts, and not
understanding that WE are the ones who must abide in HIM first. (Ie:
Ask Jesus into your heart, to abide in you to be saved. Did you know
this concept is not even in the Bible.) Don't misunderstand, there is
nothing wrong with asking Jesus Christ to come  into our lives... we should do
that. But we are a selfish people and need to understand that we
must be the ones who seek Him.

Read this scripture with this understanding. He is not in us until we
are first in Him.
John 15:2-11

Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and
every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more
fruit. You are already clean BECAUSE OF THE WORD which I have
spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear
fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless
you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides
in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do
nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a
branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the
fire and they are burned. If you abide in Me, AND MY WORDS ABIDE
IN YOU, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. My
Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so PROVE
TO BE MY DISCIPLES (a disciple is a student of the Word) Just as
the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love. If
you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I
have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These
things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that
your joy may be made full.

Why did God love David?

Acts 13:22
After He had removed him, He raised up David to be their king,
concerning whom He also testified and said, 'I have found David the
son of Jesse, a man after My heart , who will do all My will.'
...Because he was after God's own heart. So don't just ask Jesus
into your heart, tell the Father that you want to be let into HIS heart
and seek to do His will. Then the Father and the Son will make their
home in you.

John 14:23-24
Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep
My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and
make Our abode with him. He who does not love Me does not keep
My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father's

who sent Me."

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

Sin Stained...or Blood Washed?

By
This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.  (Hebrews 10:16-17) The Bible tells us that under Levitical law, an animal had to be offered every year to atone for the sins of the people. That word atone means "to cover" and it's used continually throughout the Old Testament. But let me tell you something exciting. It's never used in the New Testament. The Greek word used to describe what Jesus did for us on the cross is a different word altogether. It doesn't just mean "to cover"—it means "to remit; to do completely away with something." Do you know what that means? It means there is no longer a sin problem. Jesus solved it! When you made Him your Lord, He didn't just cover your sins, He put you into right-standing with God and re-created you by the Spirit of God a...

You Must Forgive Yourself Hebrews 12:1-11 You have heard quite a lot about forgiving those that have offended you – and that you must do. It happens often that the person you must really forgive is yourself. You may have committed an offence or a sin and your conscience has condemned you, just as the Holy Spirit has chastised you. You may also have repented of this sin, confessed it to God and resolved not to go back that way. But you discover that the heaviness, clouded vision, and the erosion of confidence occasioned by the sin you committed continue to weigh you down. At such moments, you need to make another type of confession to God in order to regain your liberty from the weight that holds you down. You have to confess your unbelief in His word that says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). When you have genuinely repented of a sin and confessed it to God; and you have pleaded ...
