Be Hoopoe

If my people who are call by my name ( those who have been redeemed by his body and blood through salvation) would humble themselves.  “Come out of the sin of pride and self-will” then through much prayer seek my face “Seek out the things of the Lord God not of the world or things of our own lustful desires” and while in these efforts of seeking the Lord God “turn from their wicked ways” stop committing the sins we know are abominations before the lord according to the scriptures not opinions of men. Then will I hear from heaven, once we are cleansed from our personal sins and are actively walking upright before the lord our God he will give attention to our prayers and not reject them. And will forgive their sin, the collective sins of our communities which we also are now partakers of its consequences. and will heal their land for the sake of the saints and those who are innocent in the sight of God. 

Praise is common for the Saints of God to give him acknowledgment for being the God of all creation and for his marvelous works.  He is supreme and has graciously taken interest in and care of all of his creations. We who have been created in his image and have been redeemed by the Blood and Body of Christ Jesus have much to give thanks for.  Our thanksgiving is not of pure emotion nor of obligation but flows out of a knowledge and relationship with our God. 

It is so important in this day of trials and test that we rely on the strength of God in Jesus Christ.  It is in our weakness that his strength is made perfect in us. This is because when our strength and ability ends his takes over which is perfect and made perfect in us and through us.  It is not our own effort so that no one can be arrogant of their own abilities. 

Often because of sin we do not understand the actions of others as they go about the business of their day.  It is often presented to us a personal behavior in which we are the object of.  Understand that much is going on in the lives of the people we are in contact with, and much influence is being used by our enemies to guide them in their behaviors which align in sinfulness.  We were shaped in sin and so sin is common and normal for all men without Christ.  Light opposes darkness and darkness opposes Light and we have been called out of darkness into the marvelous light of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.  

We are coming into a time of repayment unto those who have committed atrocities to mankind in every nation. There is not one nation who is innocent concerning sin.  However, some nations and cities are accounted for more wickedness and will be judged accordingly.  We should take note of the cities of old who were judged, condemned and destroyed never to be built again according to the records of their rebellion and ungodliness.  The Cities of Sodom and Gomorrah are two examples which reflect the conditions of many places on the earth. 

With all the evil that surrounds us if is often difficult to not to fret concerning what we see and the results that come about concerning those who do evil.  Understand to everything under heaven their is a time and season.  We do not dictate the season or the time the season last concerning individuals, governments, or administrations  of the workers of evils.  We do however need to remember that the just live by faith and that these situation are those that will test our faith in God.  We must continue to do good regardless of what everyone else is doing so that in the season apponinted for us we will reap the rewards of our faith. 

We live in a world where justice is denied to the people especially the poorest of the poor. We who are in the body of Christ should always seek justice for all people especially for those who can not speak or speak up for themselves. Those who are oppressed by the world and world systems. Those who are exploited and have no one to come to their aid. These are the passions and the compassions that are given to the body of Christ to do the works of him who sent us. Let the wisdom and the knowledge of the Lord guide you in your battles for justice. 

It is imperative that we draw closer to the Lord our God and to make him our place of abode. We can not remain in the peace, joy, fulfilment, or constant fellowship of our God without our continued connections with the Holy Spirit and with standing and living his word. We need our relationship and walk with him to be unshakeable so that our direction and his will for our lives are made personally assured. 

Understand that we whom the God of all creation corrects in his love and we who adhere to his corrections and chastisements will benefit and reap the reward of eternal life. Those he loves he chastises so we will not be condemned with the wicked of this world. So rejoice in his love regardless of what comes your way always. 

There are times in our lives we experience devastation and ridicule that we must endure in order for faith and resolve to be made complete.  This is not a sign of abandonment or of God’s ability to delver us from our enemies.  Often this is a season of refinement in which we must go through and through fire.  There are many things in our lives that must be purged and remove so that the fruit of the Holy Spirit may spring forth to the Glory and honor of God.
