WHAT LABEL DO YOU LIVE UNDER?
What's wrong with this picture? The Protestant Reformation happened around 1500 years ago. It was a separation from the Catholic Church based on Martin Luther's revelation that the "just shall live by faith" and not by the rule of a church or under the control of a pope. Today, 30,000+ different labels of groups of people are trying to express what a Protestant is.
That's a lot of heavy bondage on the body of Christ.
Unfortunately, human nature was still in control, and it wasn't long until the protestants wanted to kill the suspected heretics just like the Catholics had done.
It was the same Spirit that Jesus contented with when the disciples came to him in Mark 9:38 and complained that someone outside their camp was casting out devils. They're anxious question to Jesus was we've got to do something about that.
Jesus had quite a simple rule about unity. He answered them and said well, fellas, if they're not against us, they must be for us, so leave them alone.
In 1906, there was an outbreak of the Holy Spirit in Los Angeles, California, on Azusa Street. A black man named William Seymour received the Holy Spirit while he listened to reports of it in a Bible school in Texas.
Coming to Los Angeles, the Spirit of God fell on them, and a prayer meeting in their home, eventually moving into an old Mission on Azusa Street.
It was like the shot that was heard around the world.
The outpouring of the baptism of the Holy Spirit, with speaking in tongues and all the gifts of the Spirit that were manifested, literally went around the world from that humble mission house.
Unfortunately, human nature took over again, and the first separation happened in the Pentecostal movement when the black brothers and sisters were shoved aside. They started a fellowship called the church of God in Christ.
From that point in time, it seemed that labels began to be important to the Spirit-filled folks. What started with one outpouring to describe Pentecostalism has splintered into literally hundreds, if not more, of labels that people live under.
At some point, if we're going to see the kingdom of God advance, we must have one label: Jesus Christ and him alone.
True fellowship is with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Everything else is secondary.

POCKETS OF WISDOM AND REVELATION
Why do some people in a large or small gathering who are listening to the word of God not hear the same thing? After a life of pastoring multiple churches, it's still beyond frustrating that someone can sit in the same congregation, hear the same message, and miss the point completely.
I conclude that the problem is not in the seed that's sown; according to the Book of Mark, the fourth chapter, it's the ground that makes the difference.
Jesus repeated this phrase many times: "He that has ears to hear, let him hear." That tells me that everyone has the ability to hear, but they also make choices about whether to hear.
In the thousands of church services I have conducted, someone has a breakthrough, a revelation of heaven, a divine encounter, yet the one next to them walks out the back door, angry at God and the church.
Jesus chose 12 disciples to train and leave the kingdom of God in their hands. These 12 disciples sat with him after the mass crusades, and he taught them the secrets and mysteries that no one else heard. The large crowds didn't get it, but he gave the inside revelation to the disciples.
Judas was present at all of these private meetings, where the Son of God opened up the mysteries of heaven, yet he missed them completely. Wisdom and revelation of the kingdom of God and his purpose for us continually come from the heavenly realms.
It's like digging for gold, these pockets of wisdom and revelation. The most important tool we have to dig out this precious gold of heaven is the instrument of "believing faith."
To receive anything from the treasures of heaven, it takes a believing face in God and his word. The Scriptures tell us that without faith, it is impossible to please God, for he that comes to him must believe that he is and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.
Wisdom and revelation of the kingdom of God are there. Get your big leaving face out and find it.

WHAT'S NEXT FOR US IN THE BODY OF CHRIST?
HERE'S A FLASH FOR YOU! You can expect change.
It is part of God's nature that he injected into everything he created. If it's not growing, it's dying. You can see that principle working in your garden or the landscape around your house. What isn't rooted in healthy soil is on the way to being a dead plant.
The plan of God has continued to grow in the long journey from Adam and Eve's creation in the Garden of Eden to the present. The parts of that plan that lost their roots in every generation of past history died and disappeared.
Today, we face the same challenges that every person in the body of Christ had to deal with: Do we grow and develop into God's will and exhibit his plans, or do we fade away into the shadows of history?
What's next for us as people of God and those who believe in the plan he laid out for the human race? It's a twofold answer. First of all, it's an individual choice. What will you do with the challenges? God has given you as a believer.
Secondly, people from all over the world have to make the same choice.
If those communities of believers continue to obey the direction that the Holy Spirit has given them as part of the living organism of Christ on earth, they will see Christ's revelation unfold for them.
However, those communities of believers that stagnate and turn into a religious denomination will not become stones to walk on so that we may progress. Still, they will become stones to trip over and hinder the Progressive progress that the body of Christ has before it.
Sorry, you don't get the details in advance. That's between you and the Holy Ghost. That's why it's called the walk of faith. That's what keeps the Holy Spirit as the leader of the pack.

NOW THAT YOU HAVE ASK HIM-DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE ANSWER?
The scriptures clearly tell us that if we ask anything in prayer believing, we shall receive it. That being true because the Scriptures do not lie, how many times can we ask for the same thing without being in unbelief?
I know that we always have the illustration of the woman who was dealing with the unjust judge. Because of that, she kept coming back until he, out of frustration, gave her the answer.
According to the scriptures that Jesus gave us, it does not represent my heavenly father.
Our heavenly father is so tuned into us that he hears us before we ask, and while we are speaking, the answer is on the way.
That's fast, real fast, even faster than Amazon.
So, here's my question: now that you have asked, how are you expecting to recognize the answer?
You may have asked him to open your eyes so that you may see more clearly into the spiritual world. Or you have, perhaps, asked for wisdom, the spirit of wisdom to give you an answer to a problem. And, like most of us who have asked to hear from the Lord what we should do for the moment.
Here are a few reminders from the Scriptures on what Jesus has said about asking and receiving.
Matthew 7:7: ask and you shall receive, seek, and you shall find knock, and it shall be open onto you. For everyone who ask will receive.
Wow, that's pretty good.
Luke, 1110;
Everyone who asks and keeps on asking receives, and he who seeks and keeps on seeking finds, and to him who knocks and keeps on locking the door shall be open. AMP
That sounds definite to me.
So here's my encouragement to you today. According to the scripture, your answer is already there, but perhaps you still need to recognize it because you expected it to come a different way.

GOD DOES NOT TEMPT ANYONE
The original sin of Adam and Eve seems to set a standard for others to follow. Two things stand out that have been identifiable throughout history.
Number one, I am a victim.
Number two, it wasn't my fault it was yours.
Listen to Adam as God is confronting him in the garden. "He said, "This woman you gave me, she caused me to sin."
Our society today has certainly taken that to new heights. Everybody is a victim, and it's not their fault—everything from the government, climate change, the Republicans, the Democrats, and the preacher.
Of course, we tend to blame God when we mess up. Some say God knew what I was going to do, so why didn't he stop it? It was probably God who tempted me to see if I would fail.
Just to set the record straight. The book of James 1:13 tells us, "God does not tempt us with evil. But every man or woman is tempted by their desires."
Because that is true, we must focus on the Holy Spirit's work within our soul and thought life. If we don't take control through the Holy Spirit's power within us, our thoughts will dominate and lead us into a trap that will eventually kill us. (James 1:13 paraphrased)
Of course, the answer is not mind control or self-discipline. The only thing that works long-term is total submission to Christ. It is because of our submission to Jesus Christ as our Lord that our hearts are filled with the goodness of heaven and the presence of the Lord.
This is why the Scriptures tell us, " Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks." The flesh or natural man can never be trusted without the control of the Holy Spirit. It's because of the Holy Spirit that we have those wonderful fruits of love, joy, peace, temperance, goodness, etc.

I WILL WATCH OVER WHAT I HAVE PLANTED
As I was preparing myself for my night, watch and a good nights sleep, I heard the voice of the Lord that said,” I will watch over what I have planted.”
Then I realized that the spirit of God was not talking about himself, he was talking about me.
An uncomfortable portion of the Christian community depends on God to do everything for them. Most of us in our early days of prayer spent our time directing God to go do this or do that. Somehow our prayers sounded like a traffic cop directing traffic in a busy intersection.
However, when we begin to understand what happened at the cross in the resurrection, we know that we are now coal laborers with our heavenly father.
When Jesus ascended to the father, he said he would send the Holy Spirit who would be your helper. Many of us may think that the Holy Spirit helps us in our personal life only with problems and pressures.
I believe the scriptures clearly tell us that the responsibility for this earth, and the way it functions has been turned over today men and women of faith who represent God, the Holy Spirit, but Jesus on this earth.
So in the spirit made this statement; “I will watch over what I have planted.”
It was my voice speaking to my self, being reminded of the covenant that I have with the Lord Jesus himself to stand by the stuff that I have planted.
Remember your prayers.
Remember your prophecies.
Remember his promises to you.
It is our responsibility to stand by the stuff stay on the wall be the watchmen through intercession prayer declaration, and a strong faith that God will bring to pass what he has promised us, and what we have planted.

WE CAME FROM ABOVE, AND CHRIST TOOK US HOME
If I wanted to capture the mission of Jesus to earth in simple terms, I would call it. Gods rescue mission. The fathers plan from the beginning was to have created sons and daughters in his image. I like to refer to them as gods imagers.
Because Janice is 126 tells us that's what God intended when he created mankind that he would make them in his image.
So you and I are imagers.
However, you know the story Adam got sidetracked, and he followed his own way, and the whole human race followed behind him. Gods, imagers on earth became captive to another master.
Matthew the fourth chapter, says that they were in darkness and bound up all their lives. That's when a great light came, and begin to illuminate the world around them, and leave them out in the freedom.
Jesus lead a rescue team into this earth. Ephesians 4 describes it that he descended to the Earth from heavenly places.
Then it tells us that he ascended and lead the captives that he had rescued in triumphant procession into the heavily realms.
It goes on to tell us, then, in the book of Ephesians, that we are now seated with him in those heavenly realms, because he rescued us and brought us back to the father.

JESUS IS NOT THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD-YOU ARE
As shocking as that may sound to the ear of the religious Christian, in all reality, it's true. When God said to the sons of God around him at the time, let us make man in our image, and let him have dominion multiply and fill the whole earth. It could only mean one thing: we are created with God's DNA in the very core of our spirit.
The scriptures tell us that God is light. So buy that deduction you and I have been made in his image. We must be light also. Even our modern scientific technology can detect you and me emanating the light from our bodies.
However, let's see that in the spiritual sense. Jesus said in John 8:12 I am the light of the world, and those who embrace me will experience life-giving light, and they will never walk in darkness.
Jesus told us in John 9:5 that as long as I am with you, my life is the light that pierces the world's darkness.
In Philippians 2:15, the passion Bible tells us, for then you will be seen as innocent faultless and pure children of God, even though you live in the midst of a brutal and perverse culture, for you will appear among them as shining lights in the universe, holding out the words of eternal life.
Then, in Matthew 5:14 in the Passion Bible, your lives light up the world, for how can you hide a city that stands on the hilltop, and who would light a lamp and then hide it in an obscure place? Instead, it's placed where everyone in the house can benefit from its light, so don't hide your light. Let it shine brightly before others so that your commendable works will shine as light upon them, and then they will give their praise to your father in heaven.
Without question, God is the source of all light because he created us. And Jesus, by his sacrifice, gave us the light that dwells within us. Then, he gave us direct commands to continue to shine that same light into this world because we are the light of the

WHY THE APOSTLE PAUL DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW ANYONE AFTER THE FLESH?
Some would consider Paul's statement to be one of a hermit, or at best, a mystic who wanted to live in a cave. However, both of those thoughts are not true because Paul knew what it would take to make the bridge between Jesus, the man, and Jesus, the Christ, the son of God.
In the book of Ephesians 3:3, Paul makes the statement. This wonderful mystery, which I briefly described, was given to me by divine revelation so that whenever you read it, you will be able to understand my revelation and insight into the secret mystery of the Messiah.
The Holy Spirit knew that if Paul had gone directly to Jerusalem, after his supernatural experience, on the road to Damascus, he would've learned and been trained in the outward expressions of Jesus, the man.
If the New Testament church were anything like today's church, they would've taken Paul to all the hotspots and pointed out where Jesus healed the sick. He would've met Jesus, his mother, and his brothers and heard the story of his childhood and how God spoke to him as a young man.
This is what Paul meant when he said he knew no one after the flesh.
In the same manner that the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness, the Holy Spirit directed Paul to spend 14 years alone, separated from the physical flesh history of Jesus, the man.
When Paul came to Jerusalem and introduced himself to the disciples, he had received that revelation of Jesus, the Christ, the son of the living God.
It's upon that foundation that the church of Jesus has been built and grows today because we understand who Christ is to us.

THE UNIVERSITY OF ANGELS-AND EVERYONE IS A PROFESSOR
I love Angels. As a matter of fact, I love everything that has to do with God's world. I love angels because God loves angels. I love angels because they have been created by the same God who created me. That makes us a unique family because we have the same father.
However, I am also aware that even the angels remind us that we don't worship them because they have been given to us as ministering spirits to bring us to our destiny.
In reality, we are the professors at the University of Angels. The Scriptures tell us nothing: angels are baffled at the grace of God toward former rebels that he has brought back into the family. How could that be? That those who betrayed him were now back at the top tier of authority in the kingdom of God?
First, Peter 1:12 tells us that the angels are curious about this because they look into and study our lives to see what it means to have. This kind of grace is given to us.
You and I are living examples of a mystery that has been revealed to the angels and all the heavenly hosts. We are living examples of God's unending ability to give grace, forgiveness, empowerment, and sonship to those who do not deserve it.
