Who Else Wants To Be A Part Of The World's Next Great Awakening? Part 1

 

Dear reader,

You are merely one revelation away from opening heaven and receiving everything for which you ask. Know that I fully respect your opinion regardless of your views on faith and religion. But if you are not seeing results like this, maybe it’s time to inspect your theology. Watch how your faith grows exponentially as I put the pieces of the puzzle together for you right before your eyes.  

This is how God revealed it to me after diligently seeking Him with prayer and fasting.  Your life is truly about to change forever; the same way God changed mine!  CAUTION:  If you fail to read sufficiently now, you will most likely NEVER see what you have been missing ALL your life.  

Some of this may sound familiar. But you must allow me to put all the familiar or not so familiar pieces together to show you the BIG picture.  Up to now, you have probably only seen pieces of the puzzle. Thus, the reason you are not fulfilled; you feel like God is far away; you feel like you are missing something; you wonder what life’s all about; and you feel like your prayers are going nowhere.  

Take heart!  Because you are about to see why you feel that way - that God is the one who designed you to feel that way - and is the very thing He uses to lead you on your way to Him.  And this article is another signpost pointing you in the right direction. 

Can you imagine having a constant line of open communication with the God of the universe...where you hold priority privileges to the audience of Almighty God Himself...where God is ever present to immediately hear and receive your call and give you direction, answers, and dispatch angels on your behalf...

Have you ever enjoyed this kind of privilege before?  This is exactly what the Holy Bible says is available to ANYONE who gives God priority privilege and access into their every affair (Jeremiah 33:3, Isaiah 65:24, Proverbs 3:5-6, Revelation 3:20 and more!).

Come to find out, the reason I never enjoyed this kind of access before has to do with the following verse I discovered in the Holy Bible.  Now, you may have never heard of the Holy Bible or believed it was valid; but you are about to, and even more so than most of the millions of people who read it every day.  

When that happens, don’t be surprised when the same Spirit of the living God that is in me, moves in you to share this life saving truth with as many people as you can as fast as God can help you.  The following is that verse where God says in Proverbs 8:17 –

“I love those who love Me, and those who seek Me diligently find Me.”

The problem:  Although my parents raised me in a Christian church — I attended church my whole life — I listened to hundreds of preachers from various Christian denominations — and heard thousands of sermons, I never understood how to love God. It sounds simple enough. But to love God the way the Bible says to love Him, seemed impossible.  And every Bible believer I knew told me it was impossible.

So, I just assumed that God understood that it was impossible for me to love Him the way He said to love Him in the Bible.  And, that He was content with me loving Him the best I knew how.  But to my utter dismay, God showed me that I was wrong!  

My dear reader, if you only knew what is in store for you, here in this series of posts, you would NOT stop reading until you learn what God showed me that I never understood before. 

This is true and verified, life transforming information that you cannot afford to allow to pass you by without taking advantage.  It will be worth your reading investment if you value an open heaven and two way communication with the very God of heaven!

This is that which moves my heart with compassion to reach out to people everywhere and say:  Oh, give me the privilege to bring you close to my God as I build for you a bridge of faith that will take you to Him!

Are you ready to feel the weight of the world, the guilt of your past, shame, stress, fear, emptiness, loneliness, and depression leave your body as the Spirit of the living God enters into you?  (Acts 2:38) (James 1:25) (John 8:36) 

Are you ready for the chains to break from that which holds you captive and renders you helpless to resist the nagging cravings, addictions, lusts, and evil desires of your flesh and body that the Holy Bible calls sin and leads to death?  (Romans 6:14-18) (Romans 8:13)

Are you ready to receive wisdom, knowledge, and joy?  (Ecclesiastes 2:26)

Are you ready to receive great peace where nothing offends you?  (Psalms 116:165)

Are you ready to receive blessings and be surrounded by God’s favor?  (Psalm 5:12)

Are you ready to receive riches, honor, and life? (Proverbs 22:4)

Are you ready for God to deliver you and sit you on high? (Psalm 91)

Are you ready for God to command His angels to always guard you? (Psalm 91:11)

Are you ready for God to start answering every time you pray? (Psalm 91:15)

Are you ready to be filled with God’s righteousness instead of your own? (Matthew 5:6)

Are you ready for God to supply all your needs?  (Philippians 4:19)

Are you ready for God to give you the desires of your heart?  (Proverbs 10:24)

Are you ready for God to do for you immeasurably more than you can even ask or imagine? (Ephesians 3:20)

The reality of these and many more promises being realized in your life are simply waiting on you to activate them.  How would you like for someone who knows exactly how to do that to show you how?  The truth is, you can learn as I have from the very same people who wrote these promises under the divine inspiration of the God who longs to bring these things into fruition in your life.

So, are you ready for a guide?

If so, then in the words of Steven Curtis Chapman:  Ready?  Let’s go!  Saddle up your horses.  We got a trail to blaze!  Through the wild blue yonder of God’s amazing grace.  Let’s follow our Leader into the glorious unknown.  This is life like no other.  This is the Great Adventure!

I shall grow your faith using nothing more than mere words written in God’s holy book; for this, as you will see, is the way God chose to set people free to live life abundantly.  When your eyes are open, follow me as I will disciple you in the battle for your soul.  

Once the Spirit of God sets you free, burn the ships of your old life of sin, and don’t ever look back. You will step into a new life and receive power to overcome!  But guard and hold onto your shield firmly, as many forces will try to take it from you.  

And remember, whatever you have to go through to get to the Father will be worth it.  Because nothing compares to the promise we have in Him!  May God find you worthy.

Now, my prayer for you:  Let God arise!  Let His enemies be scattered!  As I stand in the authority and in the name of the holy child Jesus, I command you Satan to release the mind of the reader!  Let the light of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ dispel the darkness of your past my friend, even as you take hold of the words of eternal Life.  

I invite you to come close to the eternal living God.  Let’s begin,

The Holy Bible is filled with thousands of prophecies (predictions of future events) and not one of them has failed to come to pass when it was supposed to, proving that the Holy Bible is a supernaturally inspired book. 

And the infamous, Jesus Christ/Yeshua Hammaschiach of Nazareth fulfilled more than 300 Bible prophecies concerning the first coming of the Messiah (the anointed one), which proves that Jesus Christ is God who inspired the Holy Bible that was written by 40 different holy men as they were moved by the Holy Spirit of God.   

2,000 years ago, in fulfillment of Bible prophecy, God who is all three in One (Father, Son/Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit), became as a man to live among us in the person of Jesus Christ – Hebrews 2:17.   

His life made such an impact, the world split time into AD (anno Domini is Medieval Latin and means “in the year of the Lord”) and BC (Before Christ). 

Jesus said in John 15:7 

 “If you abide in me and what I say abides in you, then ask for anything you want, and it will be yours.” 

Jesus said in John 14:12

“I tell you for certain that if you have faith in me, you will do the same things I am doing. You will do even greater things, now that I am going back to the Father.”

Jesus said in Matthew 21:22

"And all things, whatsoever you ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive."

Now, let me show you how to unlock the power of these amazing promises and open a whole new world for you where God can take you far beyond your wildest dreams.  But know that there is a force that will try to stop you from completing this discipleship training.  If you quit, you may never learn what I believe I have received from the Lord.  

The short story of what you will learn from reading the Holy Bible is this: God’s top angel, Lucifer became lifted up with pride because of his position and convinced one third of the angels of God to rebel with him, in order that Lucifer might exalt his throne above the very God who created him. 

Of course, their coup d’ etat failed hard and fast. So, God banished them all (Lucifer/turned the devil and Satan and one third of the angels/turned demon minions) out of heaven – Revelation 12:4.

In fact, Jesus said in Luke 10:18 [I saw Satan fall like lightning.]  What a slam from heaven to earth, lightning fast!  You would have thought it would have knocked some sense into his head. But nah, it only made him worse.  Satan’s hatred toward God grew in all out revenge.  And his target now, is YOU!  

And if you didn’t know this, I implore you to keep reading for the sake of your eternal soul.  It is not by chance you are reading this right now.  Because, God also has His sights on YOU.  (2 Chronicles 16:9) (Proverbs 15:3) (1 Peter 3:12)

Psalm 33:9 says that God [Spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm.]  In fact, Hebrews 11:3 says that God made everything that was made this way.  But, when it came to making you, Genesis 2:7 says [And the LORD God formed man (Adam) of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.]  

No doubt after making man, God said, “I can do better!” (smile). So, Genesis 2:22-23 says [Then the LORD God made a woman (Eve) from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.  The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.”]   

Now, here’s a sobering fact: Instead of immediately sending the fallen angels to a place the Bible says God prepared especially for them called hell (Matthew 25:41), God sent them of all places to earth first!  Most of them are still here!  Thus, all the chaos!  And they will NOT be banished to hell until after Jesus returns!  

So, please let me help you deal with these!  Please finish reading what I must tell you.  Because you are in danger with eternal consequence, more than you may ever know.  Even if you knew this, it is very likely that I can help you more than you can imagine.  

Because I will build a foundation, then add progressive revelation that you most likely have never seen before.  I GUARANTEE you that your faith will be much BIGGER by the time you read to the end of this series!

To continue the short story, God put the man and the woman in the beautiful Garden of Eden.  There God provided for them all kinds of trees from which to eat.  But God included a special tree called “Knowledge of Good and Evil,” and He told Adam not to eat from that tree lest he die. 

Here’s the problem: God created man with an eternal spirit housed in a physical body. So, to die meant separation from God. It also meant that the man’s body would start to grow old and perish. And the man’s spirit/soul would then depart to the place of the damned, which God originally prepared for the fallen angels called hell.

There is a silly debate over whether hell actually exists and whether or not the souls of the damned endure there in torment for eternity.  But only Satan would have you believe otherwise. I wished I could say it wasn’t true, but I will show you what the Bible clearly says about it. 

This is one of the things that makes the Holy Bible most compelling.  For example: This is what Jesus said about the man who betrayed Him: “It would have been better for him if he had not been born.”  – Matthew 26:24

So, the question is:  If that one tree of “Knowledge of Good and Evil” was so deadly, why would God place that tree in the garden with Adam?

Not only that, but God also put the devil/Satan in the garden to tempt Adam who persuaded him to eat of the forbidden tree causing Adam to die!

I know what you are probably thinking, but the story gets better.  

God said in Isaiah 46:10-12 [I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, ‘My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.’ From the east I summon a bird of prey; from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose. What I have said that I will bring about; what I have planned, that I will do. Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted, you who are now far from my righteousness.]

Being the only one who knows the future, God knew ahead of time that Adam would make a serious mistake.  And later you will learn that the consequence of this one sin would bring the curse of death upon the entire human race, which includes separation from God in that awful eternal place of torment called hell.

1 John 3:4 says [Everyone who sins breaks the law (of God); in fact, sin is lawlessness.]

1 Corinthians 15:56 says [The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.]

Romans 5:12 says [Wherefore, as by one man (Adam) sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned] Yet, God did not stop the man from sinning, even though; God knew Adam’s mistake would damn all humanity — every single descendant of Adam including YOU and ME!

Mind you, God gave man a body that is given to lust.  Plus, God put the tempter, Satan in the garden with Adam who He knew would take advantage of the man’s weakness and tempt him to stir up all his lust.  But If you think about it, what better way to give the man an opportunity to show Father/God how much the man loved Him but by giving him choices?  

Because can you call it love without giving love a choice?  Nobody appreciates forced love. That is why forced love does not exist.  We give that a different name.  

And what better way to judge the strength of the man’s love but by providing him with options that vary in degrees of allurement, seduction, excitement, enticement, stimulation, and persuasion?  And I think you would agree that some temptations are more difficult to resist than others.  All of this in light of the fact that anything you love more than God is an idol, according to the Bible.

Know that the gospel is simply: {The good news about Jesus Christ, His coming Kingdom when Jesus returns to live with mankind forever, and it’s about salvation for man.  It is the promise that God would become a man through the bloodline of Eve, Abraham, and David and be born of a virgin (Mary’s egg combined with the seed of the Word of God.)  And, whereas every man has broken at least one of the laws of God and are eternally damned for it, Jesus came 2,000 years ago and lived His entire life free from sin, to satisfy all the demands of perfection for us.  

Then, He removed the sins of the world and the curse of death off humanity and placed them on Himself and “allowed” Himself to suffer the wrath of God for sin and was brutally crucified by the Romans.  They buried Him in a tomb.  Then, on the third day, He raised His own body from the grave!   Because He can.  (John 10:18)

Afterwards, He showed Himself to all his remaining disciples and appeared to over 500 people at once showing them many infallible proofs that He was alive again.  And, His disciples watched Jesus ascend up into heaven where He now sits on the throne of God.  

Afterwards, the disciples of Jesus who were hiding in fear of suffering a brutal death as their crucified Lord, lived the rest of their lives traveling everywhere boldly proclaiming the good news of the gospel of Jesus, after seeing their Lord rise from the dead and ascend into heaven. 

And they were compelled to risk all kinds of danger to warn others to flee the wrath of God by turning from sin and accepting God’s gift of salvation. They suffered all kinds of persecution.  After they recovered, they would go right back to preaching the gospel.  And nobody is going to endure that much suffering to promote what they know to be a lie.

In the end, they were all tortured and killed for simply sharing the good news about Jesus Christ, but not until each of them fulfilled their God given destiny. All but maybe John, who they tried to boil to death but supernaturally survived and lived on to write the book of Revelation while exiled on the Isle of Patmos.

This is the gospel, the good news of Jesus Christ that Jesus commanded all His followers to proclaim to everybody throughout the world.  Because, as you will see, preaching the gospel is the method God chose to save humanity from sin and hell (1 Corinthians 1:21).  

And this is only the beginning of your journey!  I have so much more to tell you.

CAUTION:  If you fail to read sufficiently now, you will most likely NEVER see what you have been missing ALL your life.
