The words Heaven and entertainment are directly opposed to each other.Entertainment is soulish, the direction is towards my self, to please myself. When my soul is pleased my emotions respond with expressions of joy, shouting, clapping, etc.
Heaven is filled with worship. Worship is from my spirit to God; spiritual. Jesus said, God is a Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth. The people that are with God in Heaven are those that love Him, and with all their heart they are worshiping Him, day and night.There are four living creatures around the throne of God who cease not to say "Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come."
This is a key problem in the church of Jesus Christ on Earth right now, christian entertainment posing as worship, yet the music and the behavior of the people is very often soulish. The emotions are stirred up and the people respond from their souls. This kind of "worship" is not acceptable to God and it is killing the church.
When we worship the Father in spirit and in truth we enter into fellowship with Him as we express our love for Him from our hearts, through the Holy Spirit and the truth, His Word is truth.
He will respond to us according to His perfect will, and we will be edified, built up and strengthened in Him. The Church will grow.
Repent and Believe the Gospel!
REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL!
Jesus said,"The time is fullfilled and the Kingdom of God is at hand, repent and believe the Gospel" The Gospel is that the Word of God became a man; Jesus, the only begotten of the Father, the Son of God, full of grace and truth, and lived in this world with every temptation that you and I face, and yet He never sinned and He gave himself to die on the cross and shed His blood for our sins. God made Him who knew no sin to become sin on our behalf that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. He was buried in a tomb, and on the third day the Father raised Him from the dead. He was seen of above 500 witnesses after He arose and He ascended to the right hand of the Father in heaven. He is there right now, alive, making intercession on our behalf to the Father. He is coming again with all the saints and all the angels in great power and glory and all who live and believe in him will be united with him and thus will we ever be with the Lord. I urge you to seek Him now, during this time while the long suffering of God is waiting, for the Day of the Lord is coming soon. He loves you and He will save you to the utter most if you will put your trust in Him.Tuesday, January 29, 2019

Take Heed
Col 3:1-4 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sits on the right hand of God.
Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
Where is your affection set? How much of your time is spent every day on your cell phone, studying the things of this world?
How much of your conversation is about worldly things, the cares of this life, the lust for other things?
Luk 21:34-36 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
If your heart is not prepared, you will not be able to stand. If we spend too much time every day on the internet and the things of the world,
We will not be prepared to meet the Lord, and we won't have the fruit that we should.
1Jn 3:1-3 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew him not.
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
And every man that hath this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure.
We must be about purifying ourselves: the kingdom of God, the Word of God, the things of God, and not the things of this world.
Otherwise Satan will succeed in overcharging our hearts and we will not be ready to meet the Lord Jesus.
He is surely coming soon. TAKE HEED !!!
For God So Loved...
For God so loved the World that He gave His only begotten Son,who knew no sin,to be a living sacrifice for all our sins on the cross in Jerusalem, that whoever will repent and believe in Him might be made righteous in Him through faith in that sacrifice, faith in His blood that was shed there that day. His sinless life was in His blood and it was shed for us. He came to take away our sins. Behold the Lamb of God, the spotless Lamb, who takes away the sins of the world. He died to completely pay the penalty for all sin and unrighteousness. He was dead, cut off from the Father, but on the morning of the third day the father raised Him from the dead. He is alive forever more. He is glorified and at the right hand of the Father in Heaven right now. He is coming back very soon in the clouds in all the glory of the Father, with all the saints, and all the angels, and he will gather together all His people to be with Him forever.
Do not be deceived by all the lies being put forth today by false prophets. Jesus said very plainly that He is going to give unto every one of us according to our works. If you have sin in your life repent, confess it to God now, and to every person that you have sinned against. If someone has sinned against you, forgive them now from the heart. Get after this now with all your heart that you might be forgiven and cleansed.
1 John 1;3-10 :
That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things write we unto you that your joy may be full.
This then is the message which we have heard of Him and declare unto you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with Him and walk in darkness, we lie and do not the truth; But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His Word is not in us.
I encourage you to read the entire First Epistle of John. The Lord used it greatly in my life to bring me out of deceit....
