A Life Apart

From the Book God Calling (www.twolisteners.org )

March 29 – A Life Apart

I reward your seeking with My Presence. Rejoice and be glad. I am your God. Courage and joy will conquer all troubles. First things first.

Seek Me, love Me, joy in Me. I am your Guide. No perils can affright you, no discipline exhaust you. Persevere. Can you hold on in My strength? I need you more than you need Me. Struggle through this time for My sake. Initiation precedes all real work and success for Me.

Are you ready to live a life apart? Apart with Me? In the world and yet apart with Me? Going forth from your secret times of communion to rescue and save?

“And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart. – Jeremiah 29:13

All Is Well

From the book God Calling (www.twolisteners.org )

 

March 21  – All Is Well

Remember My Words to My disciples, “This kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.” Can you tread the way I trod? Can you drink of My cup? “All is well.” Say always, “All is well.”

Long though the way may seem, there is not one inch too much. I, your Lord, am not only with you on the journey – I planned, and am planning, the journey.

There are Joys unspeakable in the way you go. Courage – courage – courage.

“Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet
 believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.” – 1 Peter 1:8

Fear Is Evil

From the book God Calling (www.twolisteners.org)

March 5 – Fear Is Evil

Have no fear. Fear is evil and “perfect Love casts out fear.” There is no room for fear in the heart in which I dwell. Fear destroys Hope. It cannot exist where Love is, or where Faith is.

Fear is the curse of the world. Man is afraid – afraid of poverty, afraid of loneliness, afraid of unemployment, afraid of sickness.

Many, many are man’s fears. Nation is afraid of nation. Fear, fear, fear, everywhere. Fight fear as you would a plague. Turn it out of your lives and home. Fight it singly. Fight it together. Never inspire fear. It is an evil ally. Fear of punishment, fear of blame.

No work that employs this enemy of Mine is work for Me. Banish it. There must be another and better way.

Ask me and I will show it you.

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, 
and of love, and of a sound mind.” – 2 Timothy 1:7

Nothing Can Hurt

from the book God Calling (www.twolisteners.org )

– Nothing Can Hurt

The way is plain.

You do not need to see far ahead. Just one step at a time with Me. The same light to guide you as the Hosts of Heaven know — the Son of Righteousness Himself.

Only self can cast a shadow on the way. Be more afraid of Spirit-unrest, of soul-disturbance, of any ruffling of the Spirit, than of earthquake or fire or any outside forces.

When you feel the absolute calm has been broken — away alone with Me until your heart sings, and all is strong and calm.

These are the only times when evil can find an entrance. The forces of the evil surround the city of man-soul, and are keenly alert for one such unguarded spot, through which an arrow can pierce and do havoc.

Remember all that you have to do is to keep calm and happy. God does the rest. No evil force can hinder My Power — only you yourself have power to do that. Think when all God’s mighty forces are arrayed to aid you — and your poor, puny self impedes their onward march.

“So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:34

Without a Shepherd

have you ever felt that you are lost, forsaken ,don’t know what to do, no one cares about you , can’t find some one to help you, to answer your questions,someone who cares to lead, to guide, to walk with you through your life,someone who loves you, and leads you to the right path, to the true path that you were born to walk through, ever thought that you are without a Shepherd, and you know that you need that Shepherd badly , to lead you, carry your pain and love you, to feel satisfied ?to feel safe ? .

many are feeling the same as you do, I am one of those many. I need a Shepherd

let’s find out who can be our shepherd.

in mark 6

—

30The apostles gathered around Jesus and reported to him all they had done and taught. 31Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.”

 32So they went away by themselves in a boat to a solitary place. 33But many who saw them leaving recognized them and ran on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them. 34When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things.

—

as we see Jesus is offering himself to be our Shepherd,every lost one, every  one stumbling in his or her way, each one who feels like he is a sheep without a Shepherd, If you say in your heart, if you feel it, if you keep telling yourself ” I AM A SHEEP WHITHOUT A SHEPHERD”  here’s your answer, here’s your shephered, here’s my shephered, here is the one who have COMPASSION on us, here’s the one that feels our pain, that touched it, that is having COMPASSION  on YOU and ME ,on every SHEEP WITHOUT A SHEPHERD…

a question that’s always in minds, where can i find this Shepherd, where can i find Jesus the Shepherd, where i can find the rest to my soul. Those people on marc 6 are lucky ? because they found him?,, those people are better than me ? , are they good people and i am not that’s why they found Jesus.? are those questions are in your mind ? the answer is : in marc 6:33 But many who saw them leaving recognized them and ran on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them.

what happened is that those people , saw Jesus and the apostles ,they recognized them, so they RAN on FOOT from All the towns and got there ahead of them, those people did nothing but when they recognized him, they ran to him,

they ran to him, and it didn’t matter where they were from, they ran to him on foot,no horses no cars, just their foot,,, so the answer is when you recognize God, when you see him, when you hear him, when you hear his call Don’t Ignore it,  all you have to do is to follow it, when you recognize God in a church, when you recognize him in a praise song, when you recognize him in a preaching, when you recognize him in his words in his holy bible, when your heart recognize God, Run, just run towards God, no need to be someone, or to have something,just run on your foots, carry yourself to him, he called on you because he is having compassion on you, he loves you and he loves us all. when you recognize him don’t ignore it, remind yorself of your need to a shepherd, remind your self with his compassion. remind yourself  how much love and life you are going to have because he is your Shepherd.

the followings words are from God to you, telling you how good shepherd he is , he is telling us all ” You can be my Sheep, I love you, and don’t worry I am a good shepherd”

in John 10

 11“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. 12The hired hand is not the shepherd who owns the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. 13The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep.

 14“I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— 15just as the Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. 16I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd. 17The reason my Father loves me is that I lay down my life—only to take it up again. 18No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father.”

—

God is telling you that he is the good Sheperd , he laid his life for you, he cares about you, he is not like a hired man, God is going to protect you from the wolve, the wolve that is dangerous to you, that causes you fear that brings you pain. have no fear of not recognizing him,God is the good sheperd, and he is telling you. “16 I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.” he is saying I must bring you, it’s true you are not from this sheep pen, but you are going to listen to my voice, you are going to hear me and you are going to join my flock, and you will be my sheep and i will be your shepherd. I am stronger than sin, I beat it on the cross, I’m stronger than any circumstances you are in. you are going to be my sheep.

 Feel how much Love and Compassion God is having towards every one of us. no longer you will be lost, no longer you will be a sheep without a shepherd but you are going to join his flok, accept him, accept him when you recognize him, when you hear his voice.

I am the light of the world; he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.  John 8:12

“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep” . John 10:11

16“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. john 3:16

Depression

From the book God Calling

 

December 20 – Depression

Fight fear as you would fight a plague. Fight it in My Name. . . . Fear, even the smallest fear, is the hacking at the cords of Love that bind you to Me.

However small the impression, in time those cords will wear thin, and then one disappointment, or shock, and they snap. But for the little fears the cords of Love would have held.

Fight fear.

Depression is a state of fear. Fight that too. Fight. Fight. Depression is the impression left by fear. Fight and conquer, and oh! for Love of Me, for the sake of My tender, never-failing Love of you, fight and love and win.

“Here my voice, O God, in my prayer; preserve my life from fear of the enemy.” Psalm 64:1

–

listen to God’s love, follow him, he loves you, fight ,love and win. gain your strength with him ,he will be with you in your bad times. because he loves.

God bless you.

Cursed

Hi ,I am sure that sometimes all of us feel that we are cursed, someone put a curse on us , or we are just cursed, because bad things are happening or life is just tough, It’s an explanation we give for bad things happening, speaking for myself ,sometimes i say God i am just cursed, i can’t stop doing this sin, or there is something that is like bad luck , it feels like there is an outer element that damages whatever I am trying to do.

finally i have found that no one can put a curse on me, there’s nothing like i am having a bad luck,or bad luck is my companion.

from the bible

Deuteronomy 23

Exclusion From the Assembly

 1 No one who has been emasculated by crushing or cutting may enter the assembly of the LORD.

 2 No one born of a forbidden marriage nor any of his descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD, even down to the tenth generation.

 3 No Ammonite or Moabite or any of his descendants may enter the assembly of the LORD, even down to the tenth generation. 4 For they did not come to meet you with bread and water on your way when you came out of Egypt, and they hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram Naharaim to pronounce a curse on you. 5 However, the LORD your God would not listen to Balaam but turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the LORD your God loves you.

—- it’s from the old testament, God here is telling  that if someone tries to put a curse on you , if the devil is trying to harm you , to fight you, to curse you, don’t worry  , God said i will not let it happen, no one curse will be fullfiled, because I love you, and that’s not all, God is telling you , I will turn this curse into a blessing,

those promises are beautiful from God, he is expressing how much he loves us, and how much he is taking care of us, how much he is blessing us, he will not let any curse be on you, he loves you, you are his child, he will bless you, pray to God that you love him more and more, and to give you a heart of flesh, not stoned one, because he loves you, if you feel that you are cursed tell God take it away, turn it into a blessing, come to him ,tell him i want to love you, i want to be under your wings, under your love and tender, Jesus loves us all, and we all are accepted, he loves us not because something we did, not because we are good, not because we are bad, he loves us for no reason , if you can’t feel God’s love , please read his words again in the bible in john 3:16

 16“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”, he loved you to death,,, if you can’t feel his love please check this link http://www.hopeway.org/lifehelps/GodLove.asp

Jesus loves You. ask him that your heart be fulled of his love , to love him, and he will grant you, for he loves you the most.

God bless

New experience

i am going to tell you something , that happened to me, it’s real i am not telling a story from my mind,
the thing that i guess that many of you passed through the same situation.

with out any alert or something, one day ( which is today , the day i am writing this), i felt that i have lost contact with God, i felt that he is in a place and i am in a totally far away different place.
i felt this because every day , God talks to me, or gives me something to do, God gives me a new lesson, a new blessing, the feeling that God is here beside me. all of this was lost, suddenly.
i was so confused, what’s wrong? what did i do that drove God away, i can’t feel him at all,, this is strange, i have been with God for 3 and half months now, and never felt that he is away this way, what’s wrong, i couldn’t find an answer, i prayed, got some peace, but still don’t know what’s wrong,
all the day i was at home, i guess i didn’t do something that drove God that far, what’s wrong?

then i got scared, i thought what now, oh no, i am going to be back to my previous life, i am separated from God now, and i don’t know what did so, oh no , i am going back to my sins and my sadness and pain i had before i am born again in christ, i freaked out, i was so confused, actually i don’t wish that i pass through this again, i was totally confused, i couldn’t ask God for help because i felt that he is so far away, i felt that he is far and his promises are gone far with him, it was so disturbing,
but then i told one of my friends, ” i am so confused” “help me”, she said what’s wrong? i answered, i lost contact with God , i can’t feel that he is close as before, it’s like he is in another place,
she told me this is wrong, this feeling is not from your heart, the devil is pushing those feelings in it, but it is a lie,she told me the devil is fighting you, if you are not ready to fight then surrender , if you want to fight , then ask God’s help, but this feeling is not real, the devil is giving it to you , so that you return to your life before christ, who is lighting your life right now, i told her ” but i don’t know how to fight” , she answered by praying, by resisting even forcing yourself to fight, by the word of God( the holy bible) ,by praying, by love ,,you can fight with all of that, she told me the sign of the cross burns the devil always sign yourself with it( in the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit, one God amen.) some of tears started to fall from my eyes, i told her , then what did i do so all of that happens to me ? she replied , nothing all what you did that you opened your heart to God, and this drove the devil crazy,so the devil told himself that I should bring that boy back to me.
then she told me that if you find yourself fighting the devil ,you should be happy, because God is making you stronger, God is rising your place in his heart up.

after that conversation, i went to my room, turned the lights off, closed the door, i held my cross and the cross i was wearing , my knees were on the floor but my arms were on my bed, and i started crying , and i was telling God, God i am not able to face this, i am scared and i was doing the cross sign, over and over again, and i was saying , God protect me i am not able to face what’s happening, i am your son, come plz, and i was saying in Jesus name, and crying and telling God, i am scared , and surrounding me i was feeling that God is holding me between his arms, and i am a little kid, and it’s like God made an invisible wall and the devil is trying to get through it but the devil can’t, it was like i can hear the voice of the devil’ collison with the wall and the devil can’t wait to crush me, but i was in God’s arms and i was crying, after being in this fo a while, i calmed down( the peace of God) , then i saw something in my head, it is not i vision i guess but it’s like God is showing me his thought or talk, it was like an angel holding a baby in a little cradle, and the angel was telling me you are that little baby, whenever the devil tries to mess with you, all you have to do is to cry, and your father ( jesus) will come to you and protect you.
all of this was in about 25 minutes. i felt that for the first time i has beaten the devil , actually God is the one who did, but i felt that i survived the fight, and i was victorious, i felt that i want to praise God and i was thanking him a lot and praising him,,, Jesus only allowed this to happen to me , so that i experience his victory , to experience getting my power from him, to experience a new love from him, and that is so beautiful.
actuall the psalm 116,117,118 were the ones i read, and actually i felt every word of them, 118 was very beautiful ::

Psalm 116
1 I love the LORD, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.

2 Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.

3 The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came upon me;
I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.

4 Then I called on the name of the LORD :
“O LORD, save me!”

5 The LORD is gracious and righteous;
our God is full of compassion.

6 The LORD protects the simplehearted;
when I was in great need, he saved me.

7 Be at rest once more, O my soul,
for the LORD has been good to you.

8 For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,

9 that I may walk before the LORD
in the land of the living.

10 I believed; therefore I said,
“I am greatly afflicted.”

11 And in my dismay I said,
“All men are liars.”

12 How can I repay the LORD
for all his goodness to me?

13 I will lift up the cup of salvation
and call on the name of the LORD.

14 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD
in the presence of all his people.

15 Precious in the sight of the LORD
is the death of his saints.

16 O LORD, truly I am your servant;
I am your servant, the son of your maidservant ;
you have freed me from my chains.

17 I will sacrifice a thank offering to you
and call on the name of the LORD.

18 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD
in the presence of all his people,

19 in the courts of the house of the LORD—
in your midst, O Jerusalem.
Praise the LORD.

Psalm 117
1 Praise the LORD, all you nations;
extol him, all you peoples.

2 For great is his love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever.
Praise the LORD.

Psalm 118
1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
his love endures forever.

2 Let Israel say:
“His love endures forever.”

3 Let the house of Aaron say:
“His love endures forever.”

4 Let those who fear the LORD say:
“His love endures forever.”

5 In my anguish I cried to the LORD,
and he answered by setting me free.

6 The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

7 The LORD is with me; he is my helper.
I will look in triumph on my enemies.

8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD
than to trust in man.

9 It is better to take refuge in the LORD
than to trust in princes.

10 All the nations surrounded me,
but in the name of the LORD I cut them off.

11 They surrounded me on every side,
but in the name of the LORD I cut them off.

12 They swarmed around me like bees,
but they died out as quickly as burning thorns;
in the name of the LORD I cut them off.

13 I was pushed back and about to fall,
but the LORD helped me.

14 The LORD is my strength and my song;
he has become my salvation.

15 Shouts of joy and victory
resound in the tents of the righteous:
“The LORD’s right hand has done mighty things!

16 The LORD’s right hand is lifted high;
the LORD’s right hand has done mighty things!”

17 I will not die but live,
and will proclaim what the LORD has done.

18 The LORD has chastened me severely,
but he has not given me over to death.

19 Open for me the gates of righteousness;
I will enter and give thanks to the LORD.

20 This is the gate of the LORD
through which the righteous may enter.

21 I will give you thanks, for you answered me;
you have become my salvation.

22 The stone the builders rejected
has become the capstone;

23 the LORD has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes.

24 This is the day the LORD has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.

25 O LORD, save us;
O LORD, grant us success.

26 Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD.
From the house of the LORD we bless you.

27 The LORD is God,
and he has made his light shine upon us.
With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession
up to the horns of the altar.

28 You are my God, and I will give you thanks;
you are my God, and I will exalt you.

29 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
his love endures forever.

——
well you may think that this science fiction but it is real, because one’s mind says something and God says the opposite thing, and God is the one that all of us should believe.
