How He Loves Us - David Crowder (Matt Chandler & John Piper)

 

Romans 5:6-11

"For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die—but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation."

In Jesus,

My Sheep HEAR My Voice!

John 10:27-30

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. I and the Father are one.”

 How many of you read this scripture and say to yourself, I hear the voice of Jesus because He speaks to me through the scriptures? Or I've heard the voice of Jesus because He speaks to my heart and I feel a leading of the Spirit?

Before I was truly converted to Christ I used to think that I heard the voice of Jesus through the Scriptures, but after I was baptized with the Holy Spirit I literally HEARD the voice of Jesus speaking to me for the first time in my life. To say it was life changing is an understatement, it was earth shattering!

Jesus meant exactly what He said when He spoke the words, "My sheep hear my voice", and He wasn't talking about the scriptures when He said those words to His listeners over two thousand years ago. Understand that the first recorded gospel of the New Testament, (Mark) was not written until at least FIFTY years AFTER the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ! Before one word was written down it was SPOKEN and experienced first!

It should be absolutely common place and normal for the Lord's sheep to hear His voice speaking to them through His Spirit and in their minds as often as He wills, but instead when those who say they literally HEAR the audible voice of God speaking to them, they are looked at as loons, and insane!

But don't we read in scripture of the apostles and disciples of Jesus seeing and HEARING the risen Lord speak to them? Of course we do! So what's the difference between now and then?

I have heard many say that 'we have the bible now, so God doesn't speak audibly to His people anymore'. But doesn't Hebrews 13:8 say this: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. 

Jesus said: "MY SHEEP HEAR MY VOICE"

The question is, have you heard the audible voice of Jesus? If not, what does that tell you?

In Jesus,

Are You Ready For God's Answer?

Matthew 19:16-22

Now behold, one came and said to Him, “Good Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?” So He said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.” He said to Him, “Which ones?” Jesus said, “‘You shall not murder,’ ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ ‘You shall not steal,’ ‘You shall not bear false witness,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ ” The young man said to Him, “All these things I have kept from my youth. What do I still lack?” Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions."

How many times have you prayed to God and asked Him for answers to your problems? How many times have you cried out to God in despair and desperation, asking Him to heal you, help you, deliver and bless you?

And how often was God's answer to your prayers and questions much different than you thought they would be?

More often than not, when God gives you answers to your problems and prayers, it's NOT the way you thought God would answer! (His ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are not our thoughts)

And more often than not, His answers cut right through your soul and pierce your heart, we all know the cliche, 'the truth hurts!', indeed it does, and the rich young ruler felt the scalpel cut of the Great Physician Jesus!

The young ruler was bold enough to tell Jesus that he had obeyed all the commandments since his youth and was quick to ask Jesus what he still lacked, and Jesus knows ALL of our hearts! He knew what would challenge the heart of the young ruler, that's why Jesus said to him, 'sell ALL you have and GIVE to the poor, and you will have treasure in Heaven; AND come, follow me'.

Jesus answered the young man's question, but it wasn't what he wanted to hear, was it? NOPE!

And that's how it is with most of us in these days of excess, and live your best life now. To be perfect in Christ, to be a true disciple of Jesus, and to follow Him, takes DEATH TO SELF, death to your fleshly desires and carnal thinking. We must be willing to give up ALL to follow Jesus, we must be ready to leave everything behind and not look back if He calls us to do so. And we must be ready to suffer loss, affliction, persecution, and even physical death if that's the will of God.

Are you ready for God's answer to your questions? Are you really ready for the truth that will set you free?

In Jesus,
Tyrone

Uma Voz Clamando No Deserto (Joao, O Batista)

This message can also be found in or blog named as : A Voice Crying In The Desert (John, the Baptist) on 10/13/2013 escrita por: Tyrone D. Palmer Traducao: Cynthia R. Palmer

Joao 1:19-27

E este foi o testemunho de João, quando os judeus lhe enviaram de Jerusalém sacerdotes e levitas para que lhe perguntassem: Quem és tu? 20 Ele, pois, confessou e não negou; sim, confessou: Eu não sou o Cristo. 21 Ao que lhe perguntaram: Pois que? És tu Elias? Respondeu ele: Não sou. És tu o profeta? E respondeu: Não 22 Disseram-lhe, pois: Quem és? para podermos dar resposta aos que nos enviaram; que dizes de ti mesmo? 23 Respondeu ele: Eu sou a voz do que clama no deserto: Endireitai o caminho do Senhor, como disse o profeta Isaías. 24 E os que tinham sido enviados eram dos fariseus. 25 Então lhe perguntaram: Por que batizas, pois, se tu não és o Cristo, nem Elias, nem o profeta? 26 Respondeu-lhes João: Eu batizo em água; no meio de vós está um a quem vós não conheceis 27 aquele que vem depois de mim, de quem eu não sou digno de desatar a correia da alparca.

Joao, o Batista era uma voz solitaria clamando no meio da escuridao e da cegueira religiosa. Uma grande Luz estava vindo e Joao foi enviado por Deus para preparar o caminho do Senhor. A mesma coisa esta acontecendo hoje como aconteceu antes; os fariseus e judeus liam a lei e os profetas todo sabado em suas sinagogas e memorizavam as escrituras e achavam que por causa de seu entendimento intelectual delas eles sabiam que era Deus. Mas aqui veio Joao, o Batista, o profeta de Deus que foi morto como os outros profetas que vieram antes dele! Voce ve o que o modo dos homens fazem? Ate os lideres religiosos de hoje!

Eles estavam aguardando outro Elias ou o Messias, os dois vieram e a maioria das pessoas nao perceberam!

Mateus 17:10-13

10 Perguntaram-lhe os discípulos: Por que dizem então os escribas que é necessário que Elias venha primeiro? 11 Respondeu ele: Na verdade Elias havia de vir e restaurar todas as coisas; 12 digo-vos, porém, que Elias já veio, e não o reconheceram; mas fizeram-lhe tudo o que quiseram. Assim também o Filho do homem há de padecer 13 Então entenderam os discípulos que lhes falava a respeito de João, o Batista.

Lucas 1:13-17

Mas o anjo lhe disse: Não temais, Zacarias; porque a tua oração foi ouvida, e Isabel, tua mulher, te dará ã luz um filho, e lhe porás o nome de João; 14 e terás alegria e regozijo, e muitos se alegrarão com o seu nascimento; 15 porque ele será grande diante do Senhor; não beberá vinho, nem bebida forte; e será cheio do Espírito Santo já desde o ventre de sua mãe; 16 converterá muitos dos filhos de Israel ao Senhor seu Deus; 17 irá adiante dele no espírito e poder de Elias, para converter os corações dos pais aos filhos, e os rebeldes ã prudência dos justos, a fim de preparar para o Senhor um povo apercebido.

Jesus disse que nao havia um homem maior do que Joao o Batista nascido de mulher, mas hoje o menor dos que entram no Reino de Deus sao maiores do que ele era!

O tempo esta sobre nos em que novamente os verdadeiros apostolos e profetas diante da face do Senhor serao enviados para preparar o povo remanescente que Deus escolheu para salvacao. Os verdadeiros ministros de Deus sairao na ultima hora no espirito e poder do Filho do Homem, Jesus! E voce ouvira a mesma mensagem que Joao e Jesus pregaram, ARREPENDAM-SE! Pois o Reino de Deus esta perto!

Lucas 1:76-80

E tu, menino, serás chamado profeta do Altíssimo, porque irás ante a face do Senhor, a preparar os seus caminhos; 77 para dar ao seu povo conhecimento da salvação, na remissão dos seus pecados, 78 graças a entrenhável misericórdia do nosso Deus, pela qual nos há de visitar a aurora lá do alto, 79 para alumiar aos que jazem nas trevas e na sombra da morte, a fim de dirigir os nossos pés no caminho da paz. 80 Ora, o menino crescia, e se robustecia em espírito; e habitava nos desertos até o dia da sua manifestação a Israel.

Lucas 3:7-9, 15-18

João dizia, pois, 8 Produzi, pois, frutos dignos de arrependimento; e não comeceis a dizer em vós mesmos: Temos por pai a Abrão; porque eu vos digo que até destas pedras Deus pode suscitar filhos a Abrão. 9 Também já está posto o machado a raiz das árvores; toda árvore, pois, que não produz bom fruto, é cortada e lançada no fogo.

15 Ora, estando o povo em expectativa e arrazoando todos em seus corações a respeito de João, se porventura seria ele o Cristo, 16 respondeu João a todos, dizendo: Eu, na verdade, vos batizo em água, mas vem aquele que é mais poderoso do que eu, de quem não sou digno de desatar a correia das alparcas; ele vos batizará no Espírito Santo e em fogo. 17 A sua pá ele tem na mão para limpar bem a sua eira, e recolher o trigo ao seu celeiro; mas queimará a palha em fogo inextinguível. 18 Assim pois, com muitas outras exortações ainda, anunciava o evangelho ao povo.

Voce conhece os caminhos de Deus? Muitos hoje estao aguardando pelos Davis, Elias, Joaos o batista, os fihos de Deus, a noiva de Cristo, mas quando eles vierem, voce estara prepardo para a palavra de Deus que fluira de suas bocas? Eu te digo, eles ja vieram, mas o mundo nao os conhece!

Em Jesus,

Dream: War & Aliens

I had a very vivid dream this morning of war in America and aliens descending from the skies. In the dream I was walking down a dark street during the night time, I was with another man, but I don't know who this person was, and it seemed he didn't have a clue about what was coming. As I walked down the street with the man, I started to hear bombs dropping behind me so I turned around and looked, that's when I saw the flashes of light that bombs make when they go off and hit the ground. I yelled out WAR! And I saw two soldiers standing on my right side and I said, "It's starting! War is starting", then the two soldiers ran off in the direction of the war.

Then right after that I turned around and continued to walk up the street when I looked up into the sky, then I saw an alien craft coming out of the clouds, and I yelled out, "do not fear them!". The craft tried to run me over but I stretched out my hands in front of me and by the power of God it stopped right before it ran me down! Then I was attacked by a very strong man-like alien being, and I was wrestling with it for a few seconds when another one even stronger came up behind it and knocked it away from me with the swipe of one hand, then I grappled with this being for a short time and right after that I woke up!

I have already posted a few dreams I had of war coming to America and I've also read a few prophecies and dreams from some other people about war and a coming alien invasion. Is the Lord continuing to warn His people through visions, dreams, and prophecies about what's coming? I believe so! The Lord ALWAYS warns His people before His judgments fall. I said it before and I will  say it again, prepare yourself, get in the Ark while there's still time, the flood is coming! And so is Jesus!!!

In Jesus,
Tyrone
