Mammagram... Auntie Atneat...us... She EMBODIED God's Word

Herald and preach the Word! Keep your sense of urgency [stand by, be at hand and ready], whether the opportunity seems to be favorable or unfavorable. [Whether it is convenient or inconvenient, whether it is welcome or unwelcome, you as preacher of the Word are to show people in what way their lives are wrong.] And convince them, rebuking and correcting, warning and urging and encouraging them, being unflagging and inexhaustible in patience and teaching. For the time is coming when [people] will not tolerate (endure) sound and wholesome instruction, but, having ears itching [for something pleasing and gratifying], they will gather to themselves one teacher after another to a considerable number, chosen to satisfy their own liking and to foster the errors they hold, And will turn aside from hearing the truth and wander off into myths and man-made fictions. As for you, be calm and cool and steady, accept and suffer unflinchingly every hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fully perform all the duties of your ministry. For I am already about to be sacrificed [my life is about to be poured out as a drink offering]; the time of my [spirit's] release [from the body] is at hand and I will soon go free. I have fought the good (worthy, honorable, and noble) fight, I have finished the race, I have kept (firmly held) the faith. [As to what remains] henceforth there is laid up for me the [victor's] crown of righteousness [for being right with God and doing right], which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me and recompense me on that [great] day–and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved and yearned for and welcomed His appearing (His return).

Again...

Remember Janet Jackson's song back in the day?? Well, I fell of the truck and onto something else... pun intended... practice purity versus be pure... sermon yesterday was way more helpful than I initially perceived but I endeavor to always remain greatly open to the Holy Spirit and to how GOD chooses to talk to and through me.

"Separate Yourself."

God's message for me in a nutshell. All the things that I don't want to do and be tempted by... I need to separate from those things... I am not going to get all overly churchy and preachy and talky... just separate yourself... Separate NOT isolate.

Isaiah 40:27 to the end...

Why do you complain, Jacob?
    Why do you say, Israel,
“My way is hidden from the Lord;
    my cause is disregarded by my God”?
28 Do you not know?
    Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
    the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
    and his understanding no one can fathom.
29 He gives strength to the weary
    and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
    and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the Lord
    will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

This was the scripture from the sermon yesterday... but as I look back over the preceding verses... I feel tears in my eyes when I realize I tried to make my difficulties impossibilities that GOD can’t even reach.

Remember this ShaTina: Isaiah 40:21-24"

Do you not know?
    Have you not heard?
Has it not been told you from the beginning?
    Have you not understood since the earth was founded?
22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth,
    and its people are like grasshoppers.
He stretches out the heavens like a canopy,
    and spreads them out like a tent to live in.
23 He brings princes to naught
    and reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.
24 No sooner are they planted,
    no sooner are they sown,
    no sooner do they take root in the ground,
than he blows on them and they wither,
    and a whirlwind sweeps them away like chaff.

God used me yesterday… in spite of my sins and recent almost fresh adultery again OUR covenant relationship. God has a covenant relationship with me, individually, I am Gomer. Even though I want to be an Esther or a Dorcas... I relate to Gomer and Rahab... but GOD loves ME!! In Spite of and in the mist of all of my mess... I am so glad that GOD ALONE can use my acts of stupidity to redeem others and to comfort them. We don't know why Gomer did what she did... but we DO know she was loved. GOD I want and desire to be truly right with you. You have made me righteous through the life, death and resurrection of your Son. Thank you for seeing me. The real me. Flaws, insecurities, anger, jealous, spiteful, stingy, hateful, cursing and uncaring as I am... and still use me for your glory. Thank you Lord. 

Revelations 5:5
And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

Faith without works is DEAD!
Is you working your faith?

Everyday... I swear GOD is confirming what he wants me to do... The beauty and beast is that it will be by faith... Faith is the only thing that will bring my/your/our destiny/purpose to pass!!

We walk by faith and NOT by sight!!

Faith...how you do dat dere... Faith

Moses spoke to the people: “Don’t be afraid. Stand firm and watch God do his work of salvation for you today. Take a good look at the Egyptians today for you’re never going to see them again. God will fight the battle for you. And you? You keep your mouths shut!” God said to Moses: “Why cry out to me? Speak to the Israelites. Order them to get moving. Hold your staff high and stretch your hand out over the sea: Split the sea! The Israelites will walk through the sea on dry ground. “Meanwhile I’ll make sure the Egyptians keep up their stubborn chase—I’ll use Pharaoh and his entire army, his chariots and horsemen, to put my Glory on display so that the Egyptians will realize that I am God .”

Restoring the Sanctity of Music

What did you learn? What was revealed to you?

1.    ShaTina... you are NOT alone... I Kings 19:18

                                                              i.      New International Version
Yet I reserve seven thousand in Israel--all whose knees have not bowed down to Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him."

                                                            ii.      King James Bible
Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and every mouth which hath not kissed him.

                                                          iii.      Amplified Bible
18 Yet I will leave 7,000 [survivors] in Israel, all the knees that have not bowed down to Baal and every mouth that has not kissed him.”

                                                           iv.      The Message
Meanwhile, I’m preserving for myself seven thousand souls: the knees that haven’t bowed to the god Baal, the mouths that haven’t kissed his image.”

b.      Your emotions do NOT dictate where you are in Christ or who you are in the midst of

c.       God has his people there… just cause you don’t know about… don’t be all… “one is the loneliest number” or “all by myself… I don’t want to be…”

2.    Examine Yourself - 2 Corinthians 13:5

                                                              i.      New International Version
Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you--unless, of course, you fail the test?

                                                            ii.      The Message
Test yourselves to make sure you are solid in the faith. Don’t drift along taking everything for granted. Give yourselves regular checkups. You need firsthand evidence, not mere hearsay, that Jesus Christ is in you. Test it out. If you fail the test, do something about it.

                                                          iii.      Amplified Bible
5 Test and evaluate yourselves to see whether you are in the faith and living your lives as [committed] believers. Examine yourselves [not me]! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves [by an ongoing experience] that Jesus Christ is in you—unless indeed you fail the test and are rejected as counterfeit?

b.      Why aren’t you effective or affective with others?? Is it because you aren’t right? You better check yourself before yourself… and you call yourself worship leaders… SMH

3.    My personal favorite – it just goes with EVERYTHING!!! - Revelation 12:11

                                                              i.      King James Version (KJV)
¹¹ And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

                                                            ii.      The Message
They defeated him through the blood of the Lamb
    and the bold word of their witness.
They weren’t in love with themselves;
    they were willing to die for Christ.

                                                          iii.      Amplified Bible
 ¹¹ And they overcame and conquered him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, for they did not love their life and renounce their faith even when faced with death.

b.      This is why you can’t just sing about what sounds God… sing about the blood of the Lamb and the word of YOUR testimony

c.       You MUST tell your story because it’s not YOUR story…it a testament to God and his infinite wisdom and glory!! This is what I know about God.
