"I AM VERY DISSATISFIED WITH MY LIFE!"
I dedicate this blog to the dissatisfied.
I dedicate this blog to the downtrodden.
I dedicate this blog to the weary and the restless. Lend a moment to these words, my friends, and find your freedom! Find your rest! Find yourself!
The Bible starts out in the book of Genesis with, "in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth", but what happened before God created the heavens and the earth? Before the earth was created, God existed outside of time with His angelic hosts. God created three angelic hosts to be the top overseers of all things in heaven. These top angels were Michael, Gabriel, and Lucifer. Lucifer, was a very beautiful angel, who was the leader of all worship in heaven. At this time, angels had free will. Lucifer believed that he could be just like God, and so he caused a revolt in the heavens. God sent Lucifer, and all of the fallen angels who chose to follow Lucifer, to the earth. They were sentenced to wander around aimlessly until they reached their final destiny of burning in a lake of fire for all of eternity. God then created man in His own image, to be "mini-mes", with all authority over earth and the fallen angels (Lucifer aka satan aka the devil, and all the demons). Man was made in God's image to be in perfect relationship with God as His counterpart, to take dominion over all of the earth, to stomp on the devil's head, and to make Lucifer wish that he had never done what he had done. When Adam and Eve ate of the tree, they caused the fall of man. God had warned man that if he ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, that he would surely die. God had to give man the free will to choose to love and obey Him, just like He did for the angels. He wasn't going to force man to love and obey Him. The devil knew that if man ate from the tree, he wouldn't die physically, but he would die spiritually. The enemy's plan is to replicate himself in the minds of all of mankind, so that he can destroy as many as possible in the destruction that he himself will receive. The enemy is depressed, he is angry, he is anxious, he is without worth or purpose, and he wants to make as many people as possible think that they have the exact same destiny as him. Misery loves company. he is completely jealous of all of mankind, because they are more like God than he ever could be. So, Adam and Eve ate the tree, their minds were filled with the knowledge of evil, and they became eternally separated from God (dead). But the story doesn't end there! That is NOT where we have to live! God relentlessly pursued man! He gave man opportunity after opportunity after opportunity to turn away from the knowledge of evil and be reconciled back to God! Unfortunately, because the mind of man was so fallen from the nature of God, they were completely incapable of following God fully. God wanted them to be restored back to Him soooooooooo badly, he had to do something drastic! He sent His One and only Son, Jesus, to fulfill every requirement, and to die on the cross as sin itself, so all of mankind could be restored back to Him! When Jesus died on the cross, He took the sin of the world! All of it! Past, present, and future! He took it all upon on Himself, and rendered it powerless, so that those who believe in Him, who accept this free gift of salvation, can be fully restored back to the image of God, without the grip sin! Jesus's life on this earth, was to be the example of how we can live. He did it to show us what a person fully restored back to the image of God is capable of! Because of our faith in His sacrifice, we who believe, are fully restored back to the image of God! There is nothing we can ever do or say to make us more whole then Jesus already did for us! He has made us completely justified, just as if we never ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil! Sin has lost its grip, death has lost its sting, and evil has lost its power in our lives! God loved the world so much that He gave! He gave because YOU ARE WORTH IT! He gave us the right to be sons of God! He gave us the ability to live with His Spirit inside of us, empowering us, teaching us, comforting us, leading us! He gave us the ability to live lives marked with victory, joy, peace, and love! We get to live EXACTLY LIKE JESUS...AND GREATER!!! No longer do we live under the law, or a Romans 7 lifestyle! We are free!
Just let that hit your heart for a moment.

#Breakingchainsofreligiousbondage
One of my very best friends recently posted a status that I want to address anonymously so that I can lovingly break a religious teaching off of the Church!
The post stated, "When YOU are going through something hard and wonder where GOD is , remember the teacher is always quiet during a test."
It sounds like wisdom! Unfortunately, my friend is not alone. Many have fallen into this teaching that prevents them from knowing and experiencing the fullness of love for and from God, myself included at one time! If we truly believe that God puts us through extremely hard things and then sits by quietly as we struggle through them, then how could we ever really love and trust Him? We could rationalize that His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts greater than our thoughts (Isaiah 55), but that's old testament! Right now, New Covenant, we have the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2)! Here's the Truth... Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.(James 1:13) The word used here for tempt is from the Greek, πειρáζω (peirazō), which in part is defined as "to try, make trial of, TEST: for the purpose of ascertaining his quality, or what he thinks, or how he will behave himself". You see, Church, God does not test His new covenant Bride! Any tests or trials that we face are put before us by the enemy! The Lord, in all of His amazingness, never leaves us or forsakes us (Hebrews 13), but He's always there to aid and encourage us through the tests and trials placed before us by the enemy! He is able to use all things for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8)!
God also does not "allow" us to be tested or tried! This lie is from the pit of hell and also blocks us from knowing and experiencing the love of God fully! If we believe that God allows satan to kill our love ones, or to give us cancer, or to let us get hit by a train, etc. then how could we ever love anyone so vindictive? Here's the Truth in a nutshell... The devil and all his minions messed up and got cast out of heaven(Revelation 12), God created the earth (Genesis 1), put a bunch of mini Me's on the earth (God said let US make man in OUR image ~Genesis 1), God gave us all authority to crush the works of the devil (Luke 10), the enemy is the prince of this world (John 16, Ephesians 2) and doesn't need God's permission to hit man, but if he does, we get to thump him and destroy hell for a living! We have the Spirit of the Living God inside of us! The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead (Romans 8)! If we believe this, I mean truly believe this, then the enemy has absolutely no room to work in our lives! The tests and trials can be considered all joy (James 1) because when they come, we get to practice sonship and exercise the authority we've been given, realizing we are not on an even playing field with the devil, but rather we are looking down on the situation from our throne (Ephesians 2) where we are seated in heavenly places at the right hand of our Daddy!
Know your Father! Know your authority! Know your position!
Run with me Church!
