He's Done What He's Said And It's So!
by PJ
As a human being, I can tell you that it isn't always easy to walk in faith. This is especially true when we walk through situations that appear overwhelming. But G-d calls us to imitate Him and call things that are not as though they were. (Romans 4) We won't call things that are not as though they were if we are concerned about looking foolish, intimidated or fearful by the works of the adversary, or if we don't believe. However, if we truly want the Word of G-d to work in our lives, this is precisely what He tells us to do.
Rav. Saul/Apostle Paul is recorded in 1 Timothy 6:12 AMP, Fight the good fight of the faith; lay hold of the eternal life to which you were summoned and (for which) you confessed the good confession (of faith) before many witnesses. Even salvation comes by calling things that are not as though they were. We are saved by grace. Do you see grace? How do you know you are saved? By faith.
T. L. Osborn made a great observation about faith in his book "The Message That Works." He said, "To fight the fight of faith and stand against the wiles of the devil means to believe what God says instead of what Satan lies about. There is no truth in him, Jesus said. Nothing that he says is authentic. His threats are empty--that is, for believers." Now if you are a non-believer, you have something to be concerned about because ha'satan's only rule is over the non-believers.
Do you believe G-d has integrity? Do you believe G-d will keep His Word? Do you believe G-d tells the truth? If you believe this, then you will thank G-d for His Word even though it isn't yet performed. And you will believe He will perform that Word.
A covenant, a contract, with G-d Almighty is as good as He is. Now you can believe the words of that contract, you can believe He is true to His part of that contract, but if you don't act on that contract you will never see it come to pass in your life. On-the-other-hand, you can believe the words of that contract, believe G-d is true to His part of that contract and act on that contract and begin the work and watch Him join you in performing His part. Faith action possesses the promises.
Yochanan-Makabi / Mark 9:23 AMP, "And Jesus said, [You say to Me], If You can do anything? [Why,] all things can be (are possible) to him who believes!" If this is true....do we or do we not believe?
Yeshua said something so powerful it takes faith to grab it that is recorded in Yochanan/John 14:12-14 AMP. I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the things that I do and he will do even greater things than these, because I go to the Father. And I will do [I Myself will grant] whatever you ask in my Name [as representing all that I AM], so that the Father may be glorified and extolled in (through) the Son. [Yes] I will grant [I Myself will do for you] whatever you shall ask in My Name [as presenting all that I AM].
Do you know that many musicians among the Believers do not believe the Word? If they did they wouldn't have locked up the notes and words G-d gave them for praising Him with copyrights and laws that prevent the people of G-d from praising Him. Oh they'll be quick to say that a man is worthy of his hire and quote scriptures....but if they really believed G-d....they'd know HE is their source, not music. And if they put that faith into action....G-d would move upon the hearts of the people to overflow them with wealth a lot greater than what they make through royalties and commissions. The truth is, G-d gave them that music to help His people minister unto Him. Instead of doing that, they have made it a ministry unto themselves for mammon. You cannot serve both G-d and money.
This month as I was spending time with Yeshua, He began to speak to me about a recent flood in Nashville. He told me it came as a direct result of the tears of His people who cannot praise Him because of copyright laws that have made much of HIS music illegal for HIS children to use. He told me the flood wasn't from the disboedience of the sinners, it was a direct result of the disobedience of BELIEVERS. He said it was HIS music and that it was delivered on the wings of HIS holy angels and He says to Nashville.....LET MY MUSIC GO.
Yeshua also said that He is already raising up another generation of musicians who will believe Him. He said Nashville doesn't consider them their equals but He is going to turn these that love Him into greater.....with greater anointing.....greater music......and it will break out all over the earth. And THESE musicians will give glory to Yeshua and the people will be able to praise G-d without the copyright laws and HE will supply these musicians with more money than Nashville ever earned all put together. And if Nashville wants to be a part, this is the hour to take G-d at His Word and move with Him. That is His great desire.
I am ready to believe G-d for bigger things and for smaller things and for all things. I am fed up with my own limits I place upon Him because they gain me nothing. He wants to go way outside my limitations. He wants to go way outside yours too.
I believe it is the hour to simply take G-d at His Word. It's time to add our "Amen" to G-d's "YES" and enter shabbat, the sabbath rest of G-d and allow Him to do His part. You just have to believe He's done what He said and it's so.
