THESE ARE THE DAYS OF HAMAN'S GALLOWS
When the enemy prepares a trap for the righteous, the trap they prepared eventually becomes their own demise. One of the most important lessons you can learn in life is that if you walk upright and speak the truth in love, God will take your defense and defeat your enemy.
This is what makes unforgiveness and revenge so deadly to those who carry them in their soul. Even though they have moral and legal reasons for unforgiveness, if they try to bring about the destruction of their enemy, God will not fight their battles; when you do that, you are on your own.
The prominent ruler in the book of Esther, Hamon, had it in his mind to destroy the Jews and those who supported them. So he set about to sway the king and, in the process, built the gallows for the Jewish leader to die on.
If you know the story of Esther and her promotion to be the nation's queen, then you know that Hamon was hung on the gallows he built for someone else.
The principle of this story is that if we focus our attention on loving God and loving our neighbor even though we have deadly enemies all around us, God will defend us and bring us to victory.
David declares in the 91st psalm that even though 10,000 people would fall all around us, we would not be moved. Even with deadly arrows and death and destruction close at hand, God will fight our battles for us.
Look around you today at our national scene, and you will see various groups of people building gallows to hang God's people on. They have risen against Christ and his church, thinking they can once and for all get rid of us and stop our message.
Keep the faith, keep your focus on Jesus, and let your love be the fuel that powers your engine.
History will testify of the faithfulness of God to his children once again.

THE HOMECOMING MESSAGE
Home, just the mention of that name brings a piece to my heart and comfort to my soul. When we think of home the memories flood in of the good times around the Christmas table and the birthday parties of our early days.
No wonder the slogan" Home is where the heart is," is so popular.
When we begin to realize that our real home is not just heaven it is God our father himself. Many Christians when they talk going home they're referring to the streets of gold, the mansion on the hilltop and endless life.
I contend that the draw we have in our soul and spirit toward home is because we have been called back to the father through Jesus. The scriptures tell us in second Corinthians 5:19 that God himself was on the cross calling us home and giving us a favor where we were without favor.
Now there are no excuses or barriers between us and the one who created us; our heavenly father. Because of the cross and resurrection we now have the golden ticket to get in the gate and sit at the table with the captain of the ship and enjoy the journey.
Because of that our message is simple and direct to the point.
God is a happy God and he's looking for you to come home and when you do the party starts.

WE HAVE BEEN ADOPTED INTO GOD
Have you ever had a dream that you were walking down a dark street alone?
And every house that you look at is dark and lonely. In the dream, you keep walking, looking for someone that would take you in and give you a warm place to stay. Just the mention of that makes me sad.
The apostle Paul said that we were strangers and aliens cut off from the commonwealth of Israel, yet because of Jesus Christ, we became sons and daughters of God.
Ephesians 1:4 tells us that in his love, he chose us before the foundations of the world that we should be holy, set apart, and blameless in his sight far above approach.
Again in Galatians 4: 4, Paul speaks of the subject of adoption when he says,
"but when the proper time had fully come, God sent his son born of a woman born subject to the law to purchase the freedom of those who were subject to the law that we might be adopted and have Sonship conferred upon us be recognized as gods sons.
Let this truth sink into your spirit as you meditate upon these verses tonight.
The power of this truth will revolutionize your faith life and your emotional life.
Because we have been adopted into his family, he has given us all the rights and privileges of sons and daughters. We have total access to the father's treasure house and every other room in his grand heavenly palace.
He tells us that no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.
That's you, and I adopted into the heart and family of God.

THE REASON WE STRETCH BEFORE WE CLIMB
THERE ONCE WAS A MAN WHO WAS CELEBRATING HIS ONE-HUNDREDTH BIRTHDAY. He was the talk of the town, for no one around had ever reached that high plateau of age before. When interviewed by the local newspaper, he was asked the question. What is your secret?
He said, "well, sonny."
"Every morning, I get up at 5 AM and run 5 miles before breakfast.
Then I do 100 push-ups and 100 sit-ups, and that's before I go to the gym and work out with weights for the next two hours.
The young reporter was a gasp, how long have you been doing that, sir," he asked.
The old man answered, "well, sonny, I start tomorrow."
Somehow that story sounds very familiar to some of the promises I made in the early days of keeping me fit as a spirit. "I'll start tomorrow" could be the theme of many of us who plan to claim the heights of God's revelation and walk with the angels.
Somewhere along our journey, desire has to be mixed with action, and when it does, we reap the benefits of growth and maturity.
However, God is greater than our weakness, so He has provided a surefire way to get us to the other side of the lake. Even though the storm comes and we fear for our lives, he has already declared that we will go to the other side.
How does that work? He has provided a built-in program of exercise called trials and problems. This forces us to stretch our muscles, resulting in patience and long-suffering. At some point, according to James 1:3, patience will bring us to be perfectly and fully developed with no defects lacking in nothing.
This is why we stretch before we climb.

LIFE- THE SHORT VERSION OF A LONG JOURNEY
Have you ever heard anyone say, "the earth is eternity's dressing room?"
The first time I heard that I was preaching in Washington, DC, for an old family friend. It was the first years of my evangelistic ministry, and I had ventured out to the East Coast. Everything was new and exciting, and all I could see were good things ahead of me as I traveled this road of life.
When I heard that statement, I thought it was catchy and cool, so I made a note of it. Over the years, as I would preach, I would use that statement again if the occasion needed it.
"The life your living is eternities dressing."
I had no idea how true and powerful that statement was in those years.
To experience life is to experience God. Everyone who breathes air, whether they've never been close to a church or introduced to a Christian, experiences God every day. Why is that?
Because our heavenly father is no respecter of persons, all those with the spark of life in them who have come from the father's bosom are dear to his heart. That's the very essence of John 3:16.
"for god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son."
The apostle Paul tells us that nature speaks of God. The scriptures tell us that every man and woman has a witness in their lifetime, and I believe Jesus appears to every person sometime in their life with the opportunity to believe on his name.
When you investigate the parallel between earth and heaven, you'll realize that they are the same in many ways.
The pattern God gave for the tabernacle in the wilderness was a copy of the heavenly tabernacle. It was a preparation for men and women to be able to step into the heavenly's by touching the earthly.
When Jesus came, he came to exhibit the father, and he was the prototype of God on earth.
Then because of the cross and the resurrection, we have been made like him so that when we see him, he will be like us.
Life is indeed the Short Version of the long journey, eternity.

INFUSED KNOWLEDGE
The 23rd psalm is one of the great pillars that reveals our relationship and our journey into God's house and heavenly places.
"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want."
Let the Holy Spirit capture you with the revelation and power of that extraordinary statement. Believe that he is indeed your Shepherd. The good Shepherd who never loses a sheep. And if they stray, he finds them and brings them home.
Please note how secure you are in that great truth that he will never leave or forsake you. He was with you always.
Because of that, I have no wants. Everything that I need, both physically and spiritually, has been supplied to me by my good Shepherd.
The revelation of this great truth does not come by studying the scriptures with the natural mind. You cannot comprehend it by attending multiple teaching sessions and listening to great Bible teachers.
This is infusing knowledge.
It comes from the Holy Ghost. This level of understanding and revelation of the kingdom of God is downloaded into your spirit as you fellowship the father. Meditation and prayer are common understandings for us to fellowship with the father. But don't allow that to end your journey into the heavenly realms. If you open your spirit to this infuse knowledge, the scripture says in John 14:23 that he will teach you all things and bring all things to remembrance.
In John 2:27, we learned that this anointing would teach us everything.
It's time for a new heavenly download of the loving father and his purpose for us in this life and the future.

DELIGHT- THE HAPPY GOSPEL
The Bible as we know it today was not written to the unbeliever but to those in the family of God, first as Israelites and then as new creatures in Christ.
The most obvious reason is that it takes the Holy Spirit to give revelation to the word of God; those who have not opened their heart to Christ have a problem receiving that revelation.
The instructions in the word of God are to teach and train us so that we may exhibit God and his heavenly message to the world. Unfortunately, we have a long tradition in the Church presenting the gospel in judgment, describing a god ready to crush anyone who resists.
We scratch our heads and wonder why the world doesn't come into the Church. When they come in, we're talking about "the last days" with death and destruction and "blood up to the bridal of the horses." When we preach to unbelievers, we say 'turn or burn." We describe hell to them instead of showing a loving father who sacrificed his all so that they might be brought back to his love.
No wonder this young generation doesn't want to come into a church that talks about death and dying. They are looking for an experience of life and the joy of fellowship with people that actually like them.
The secret that the Church has reserved for a special few is that God is actually a happy God, and it's his desire that we enjoy the Christian life.
A little exaggerated, you say. Maybe so, but you get the point that we can't scare this generation into the arms of God by talking about the end of the world, etc.
Love is nurtured by delight.
Psalms 37:4 tells me that I am to delight myself in the Lord, and if I do, he will give me the desires of my heart.
So it is in proverbs 15:8 that tells me that our prayers bring God delight.
What does delight mean?
The noun= a high degree of gratification or pleasure-Joy
The verb= to take great pleasure
I love what proverbs 11:20 tells me that we are his delight and joy.
Just think about what we're missing if we don't enter that place of delight, spending time in the arms and the presence of our father, God.

IS THE WILL OF GOD A LOCATION?
The old song of the church says, 'I'll go where you want me to go, dear Lord. I'll be what you want me to be." Among the desires that rise out of the new convert is a desire to please the Lord and to do what he wants them to do. That is a result of a submitted spirit and a yielded heart; all I want to do is please the father.
Then the challenge begins. What is the will of God for me, and how can I fulfill that will or purpose? Unfortunately, a fair amount of our mentors, those who teach us the way, are not entirely free from the worldview of the church and the kingdom of God. So, Alas, big is better, and the more power you have, the more you can get done for God. A big church, an extensive TV ministry, a ton of books, etc.
The world view that the church often looks through tells us that the will of God for you is where you go and what you do. And if you go to the right place and do the right things, you will please God and be in his will, his purpose for your life.
So when we are introduced at the preachers' convention, someone says this is brother Fred he's got 300 in his congregation.
And this is brother Bob; he's got 6000 in his congregation.
Guess who gets to preach at the convention and sit on the front row, brother Bob of course, because he has proven the worldview that the church has that big is better.
So if the will of God is not a location or a big and powerful ministry, what is it?
Jesus had a simple way of bringing truth into clarity.
We are no longer striving to live by the 10 Commandments, which most people fail in. Jesus said forget that that's dead and gone.
Here are the two Commandments that I give you.
Number one," love the Lord thy God with all your heart, soul and strength, and mind." Luke 10:27
Number two "Love your neighbor as you love yourself.
That is the will of God for you today, my friend, and when you complete that, everything else falls into place. When he told us to go into all the world and preach the gospel, it's only accomplished because we love people, not because we have power or gifts.
We can love because it's God's love in us that we give out.

THERE IS SAFETY IN THE NAME OF JESUS
The story is told about a missionary woman who was asked a question by a group of American Christians. The subject was divine healing versus the world of medical advancements. They ask her, " what is the difference between the faith of the African versus the faith of Americans when it comes to believing in God for your healing?
Her answer was quite shocking for the modern American Christian who has the supply of medical help right at hand. She said, "the difference is in America, you trust in the medical supply, so why should you have to trust in the Lord for healing? However, in Africa, you either trust God or die."
That story has always grabbed me right in my spirit when I hear it because it's so true. We in the western world have drifted away from trusting in the name of the Lord for our safety and provision. I don't need to exercise my trust in the name of Jesus if I have a good job and a good insurance program for my doctor.
I tell you that story for obvious reasons that we might be reminded that the Scriptures still tell us, even in this modern age, that the name of the Lord is a strong tower and when the righteous trust in that name, they are safe.
It's been my experience as I have developed my relationship with the father that he is not a spiritual buffet that I can drift by and pick my favorite treasures from his banquet table.
There's something in the scripture that we need to hear again when it tells us to "trust in the lord with all of our heart lean not to our understanding in all of our ways acknowledge him, and he will bring it to pass."
I challenge you to reevaluate your trust in the name of Jesus from the smallest part of your life to the greatest part.
"in all of your ways, acknowledge him."
This is an excellent day to refocus on the things that matter.

SORRY YOU HAVE NO CHOICE IN THIS
Among the things that I dislike in this world are drive-through fast food restaurants. They put me in line with the other cars and expected me to choose what I wanted in 30 seconds or less. First of all, I've never been to this one before, and I don't know the menu, and the guy behind me looks mad.
There are just too many choices and too little time.
But that seems to be the society we live in every day; many choices are thrown at us, and we're expected to make the right ones in a split second.
After a while, you begin to feel like you're in control of your own life because you can make the choices you want.
Burger King has made millions of the slogan "have it your way."
Frank Sinatra sold a million records singing, "I did it my way."
And Starbucks has so many ways to make coffee; you have to have a roadmap to navigate your way through.
Boil it all down; this generation believes they are in control of their lives and can do what they want.
If you're paying attention to what I'm driving for here, you've already figured out that I'm talking about people with no god base in their life.
People without a foundation of God in their thinking and reasoning come up with stupid and foolish ideas, such as the multiple genders they are trying to convince us are real.
Now because they have decided that they can make their own choice, they're having trouble figuring out what a woman is.
People without God feel they can do whatever they want anytime they want without any repercussions or penalty for their actions.
However, when the smoke clears, God is still in charge of this universe, and we don't have the choices we think we have.
The first and most crucial choice that unredeemed people have is to choose Christ in their life. The scriptures tell us, "choose you this day whom you will serve." Once we've made that choice, our spirit is evident, and wisdom is given, so the choices from that point on becoming God's purpose and will in our life.
"I'll take a hamburger and french fries, please."
