And by putting off his body, he stripped the Principalities and the Powers and shamed them openly in his Essential Self. http://bible.cc/colossians/2-15.htm

The strength of sin is the law.

For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power.

Christ is the end of the law

Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.

its coming, but God will help ya through it. No persecution? check yourself then, what kind of life are you living? They only shoot at the live ones.

Comment I received:

______________________________________________

I have been praying 16 years for a husband and you met your spouse within one week! That’s not fair!. Am almost 44 now. Will God ever answer my prayers?

______________________________________________

I am going to tell you the truth, you may not like it though. If your saying “will God ever answer my prayers?” then my firm opinion based on the word of God is no he won’t ever answer it. You should just forget all about it.  AND its completely fair.

You have to be absolutely certain it is all ready answered when you asked. Your statement shows your not certain he will or more properly that he has all ready answered it. It also implies a attitude of future uncertainty on your part. Your statement shows your present and future uncertainty built up in your heart. (out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks)

Since “faith is being certain of what we can not yet see” and your statement shows your not certain and may not ever be, then no. Forget it.

As your faith (certainty) is so it be done unto you.

God promises you will get EXACTLY what your certainty warrants.

You have gotten exactly what you deserve no more, though you are reluctant to believe it.

But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

http://scripturetext.com/james/1-6.htm

So it may be harsh but don’t expect anything from God, the scripture tells you to NOT expect ANYTHING.

Either you are certain or your not.

Your not.

Remember the parable about the servant that comes in from the field and the master doesn’t let the servant sit down and eat UNTIL the servant first fixes dinner for the master? You need to cook God up some certainty vittles first, then after the master has eaten you will get to eat. Jesus told that parable just after the disciples asked about faith.

Faith is free and its on tap so to speak.

(faith comes from hearing and hearing by the word) (love believes all things)(the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the holy spirit)

Sorry, but you must do your part for God to do his. Without faith (faith is being certain) it is impossible to receive anything from God.
“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”

http://bible.cc/mark/11-24.htm
Since you never had any certainty or lost it by agreeing with something different later, you never received them or it was stolen from you. The answers are spiritually received before they are seen. God says whatever you sow you will reap. God will do exactly what he says. If you believe and not doubt you will have it, If you believe and then later doubt FOR WHATEVER REASON, then you will not have it.

Is God then to blame?

The temptation then is to blame God as if he has missed it somehow.  Since there is no certainty or it was removed then there is no faith. Faith without certainty is not faith at all.  “Without faith (CERTAINTY) it is impossible to receive anything from God” God is not going to violate his word for you or anyone. If you think God has done you wrong then you have made yourself your own poison sandwich and you think its delicious. That sandwich is going to kill you. Put it down and find another sandwich.

So forget about it. God wont answer your prayers since the substance is gone. You should not expect to receive ANYTHING from God. I am not saying that, the bible is.

Faith is the substance or “certainty is the substance”. Its the material out of which God makes all things. How could he make something without substance.

Again, If your all ready of the opinion that you did every thing right and God missed it then your in a world of trouble. So your saying the infallible eternal spotless holy God missed it and made a error while you did everything right? Really? Think about what your thinking.

“its not fair”

I get that all the time form people and frankly it makes me sort of feel like throwing up.

Why don’t you just admit your openly agreeing with Satan and save me the trouble of talking to you. One third of the angels agreed with Satan and got thrown out of heaven and now they are all here to whisper how we should believe Satan just like they did. They are armed with reason and “logic” and all kinds of arguments and a bucketful of persistence. They of course know the truth now but just want you to fall with them because they hate everyone.

The word of God will steer you right if your humble enough to receive it.

God is not able to make a mistake, you are.

The way this is probably being stolen from you is you prayed, then the devil hit you with a fiery dart of doubt when your mind was idle. You then agreed with the fiery dart which was contrary to the word of God and the devil stole your certainty or in other words your prayer answer.

(Certainty gone = answer gone)

YOU had to agree with him or it could not have been stolen.

(whatever door YOU open in heaven is open and whatever door YOU close on earth is closed in heaven) Another version says what you allow or disallow. Your the authority here on earth. The devil must have your agreement to open or close off heavens supply.

Once you pray and believe (open the door to heavens supply by your faith) the devil is going to wait till a opportune time and hit you up with some thought that allows him to take the certainty out. (close the door)  If he can get you uncertain the battle is over. He can not do it without your faith though. He does this when your mind is idle. He makes a good argument too. This guy could sell ice to Eskimos.  Every one writes me and wants to convince me of how God missed it and they did everything right. It makes me sick and I am not interested in hearing it. (so if your thinking about writing along those lines , do us both a favor and save it for someone else)

Some of the devils favorite ways to steal are
“your not good enough” (to which I answer, Jesus is my sole righteousness)
or you don’t have enough faith” (to which I answer Even trusting is not from yourself it to is a gift of God, and God says I will never leave you without support.)

He does this over and over and he is very persistent, he doesn’t have to be persistent for ever just more persistent than you.

You use your sword and shield on every attempt, every thought. “taking every thought captive” is more than a suggestion. It allows for no “idle mind”.

I had prayed for something once and after a onslaught of thoughts telling me how it would never work I asked God in desperation “why are all these thoughts hitting me?” God replied “because there is something there to steal”.

When you believe in your heart that something you asked God for is then it is real in the spirit world. Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is with in you. It is in your heart. Your belief opens or closes doors. The devil must have your agreement and God has the same arrangement but his is by his own choice. The devil has no choice.

When you pray with certainty God gives it to you. Its real in spirit and its on its way to showing up here on earth.Its like a big pile of gold or a unlocked Mercedes with the keys in it.

The thieves (the birds of the air, or Satan and his angels) all see a big pile of shiny gold sitting in the road with a guard wearing all most no armor armed with only a Swiss army knife close by.

The guard is playing a video game or watching television and not watching his pile of gold he left in the street and then guess what happens?  Maybe he does see them and then gets out his pen knife and tries to fight them off.

Like taking candy from a baby. They tell you what the new “truth” is and you buy it, as your back is turned they walk casually off with your Gold.

“These aren’t the droids your looking for”

You turn around see the gold gone and say “how could God do that to me!, won’t this prayer stuff ever work?”

The demons text their friend “Lol” while they walk away with your gold (certainty)  humming “another one bites the dust”

To get a prayer answered you must keep your confidence to the end.

“we shall reap if we faint not”. http://bible.cc/galatians/6-9.htm

You must guard your gold. Get a bigger sword while your at it.

His faithful promises are your armor. I wear these promise books out.

Let your mind go idle and you will swallow anything the devil tells you.You will think they are your own thoughts but they are not. (not every thought is your own)

You most likely had your certainty stolen once, (gold gone) which led you to even more uncertainty next time you prayed. This lead to even more uncertainty until you had a little stronghold built up in your heart and then said “will God ever answer my prayers?” So your “faith like a little child” necessary to get prayer answers was eaten up by your logical interpretation of your past experience. Your human nature (with Satan’s help) places the failure on God not on yourself. (the devil seeks those he can devour) You then half heatedly believe which turns your faith into the western version of “hope”.  You would like it to happen for you but there is no certain expectation just a wish. The bible says you should not expect to receive anything from God with that kind of faith and you don’t. This set you up for even more unbelief as you mistake your feeble “hope” for real “Faith” Hey I believed God and it didn’t work you cry as you deceive yourself. There is no way you could have believed God without doubting and not received your prayer answer. If you could it would invalidate the bible and God’s word. God puts his word above his name and he watches over it to bring it to pass. It is either all true or it’s not true in any way.

Humility may yet allow you to see the truth and get out of your self deception. Most people who hear this will just be offended and not humbled and never get their prayer answered while secretly blaming God. If your offended now check yourself cause your being had.

Unless you humble yourself and realize God hasn’t made a error (since he can not) then you will never put the magnifying glass on the right place. Your lack of faith and diligence is to blame. In any case God has not missed it.

Without humility you will just blame God and that will be the end of it. If you admit your at fault somehow (even though you may not know how) and ask God for wisdom to see it you can change and then get your prayers answered. “God gives grace to the humble but is oppsed to the proud” http://bible.cc/james/4-6.htm If you stick with your idea that God got it wrong then this is the end of your christian experience.

And my righteous ones will live by faith. But I will take no pleasure in anyone who turns away. We don’t belong with those who turn back and are destroyed. Instead, we belong with those who have faith and are saved.” Hebrews 10:39

If you return to him he won’t reject you the bible says over and over.

All of the universe is on a “glory” or “honor” economy. God will support and strengthen anything that honors him and his word and anything that doesn’t  will be thrown away as trash.

There are several that are most likely saying to them selves well what if God is saying no.  He will give you everything you can believe for that is good.

Here’s some verses about that.

He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? http://bible.cc/romans/8-32.htm

no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. http://bible.cc/psalms/84-11.htm

Did you ask for a good thing? Are you WALKING uprightly? (The just shall WALK by faith.

And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

http://bible.cc/1_john/5-14.htm (WHATSOEVER HE ASKS)

And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son (WHATSOVER)

http://scripturetext.com/john/14-13.htm

Watch your mind and see how quickly Satan comes to get “whatsoever” out of your thinking. He really hates that idea. Watch its being chewed out of your mind as I speak. Lol,he is persistent. Read those two last verses again and you can “see” him coming to take them out. (it may even sound like your own thoughts)

If you read the above verses a few times and get them in your heart and resist the devil trying to take them out you will see the truth about prayer and it will make you free. If you do get them in your heart the devil will go away and come back at a more opportune time to take them out. He is really against prayer answers because it “makes your joy be full” and “the joy of the lord is your strength.”  The devil prefers keeping Christians weak so he must target your joy, and that means he must target your prayers getting answered.

Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full. http://bible.cc/john/16-24.htm

When I post something like this that just tells the truth sharply I usually get a lot of angry letters and comments. Since I am and have been getting my prayers answered and I assume that the angry commenters  have not, I am going to stick with what I know is working for me.  I am going to ignore the comments on how I have it all wrong and just keep on going with what is working for me. Its HAS been working for me, I get prayers answered all the time. There are just a few of my prayer answers are on http://www.jesusanswersprayer.blogspot.com

Jesus said I would get my answers to prayer with persecution and I can attest to that being very true. No one but God can ever know the hell I have been through over this stuff. You have no idea. You should know if you start getting your prayers answered you to will get persecution so don’t be surprised when it comes.

But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, WITH PERSECUTIONS; and in the world to come eternal life. http://bible.cc/mark/10-30.htm

I heard a song that sang that sometimes God’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers. If you asked for something good then that is just not scriptural since the word says “what would he with hold from us”.  I think its a sad sad song. There are lots of ideas that sound good but we need to examine them with the scriptures.

“Make Thankfulness your main Goal in life and you will always be rich no matter how much you have.”

Since thankfulness sort of amplifies whatever good things you have all ready.

Like turning up the volume on a good song on the radio. When we are UN-thankfull or wishing for stuff we don’t have its sort of like turning up the volume on someone scratching a chalkboard and it muffles out the “good song on the radio”.

I remember my oldest son favorite toy used to be a red plastic lid off a can of drink mix.

bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;  Matt 5:44

Blessing others blesses you. Since you are created in the image of God your words can have great impact. No other creature is created in God’s image. When God speaks worlds are created and destroyed. When a creature created in his image speaks on earth what happens? Is it of no effect? What does the bible say about the power of your words? Who has taught us to take what we say so lightly?  The world? God teaches us differently. Our words have power.

From amazon:

The spoken blessing is a powerful spiritual weapon with enduring impact. By giving spoken blessings, we can see healing brought to aching souls and restoration brought to bruised relationships. Such wonders are accomplished by the power of God’s Spirit through the agency of spoken blessings, just as Scripture affirms: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Our words have the power to crush or to heal, to break bones or to plant a tree of life where none has grown before.

Gods recipe for joy!

Kings rule by decree, when you put weight or glory into his word you enter into Gods kingdom. The devils always broadcasting his dictates and they come through to us as urges or thoughts. Trusting Christ and his blood separates you from Satans kingdom since it separates you from sin, it takes away his legal rights (no access for him when your clean) and Gods promises gives you the “handles” so you can access what you need specifically. Isaiah 55:6-8 Turn to the LORD! He can still be found. Call out to God! He is near. Give up your crooked ways and your evil thoughts. Return to the LORD our God. He will be merciful and forgive your sins. The LORD says: “My thoughts and my ways are not like yours. (CEV) trusting Christ is the way to get rid of the persistent bad thoughts, its his anointing that breaks the yoke. When you trust in Christ you access his power. His promises are the “handles” on accessing that power in your life. When you put faith in his promises then that promise is active for you. “whatever door you open in heaven is open in earth, and what ever door you close in heaven (spirit world) is closed in earth. So you open the door with the key, Putting faith in his word opens the doors or closes them. Kings rule by decree, when you put weight or glory into his word you enter into Gods kingdom. The devils always broadcasting his dictates and they come through to us as urges or thoughts. Trusting Christ and his blood separates you from Satans kingdom since it separates you from sin, it takes away his legal rights (no access for him when your clean) and Gods promises gives you the “handles” so you can access what you need specifically.

Isaiah 55:6-8 Turn to the LORD! He can still be found. Call out to God! He is near. Give up your crooked ways and your evil thoughts. Return to the LORD our God. He will be merciful and forgive your sins. The LORD says: “My thoughts and my ways are not like yours. (CEV)

Christ is the spirit that manages the Christian. When we allow ourselves to be controlled by the spirit we do not fulfill the lusts of our flesh. Its a new standard of behavior that is spirit led instead of law led.

Christ is the end of the law

To see this clearer if we use the synonym “rules” for “the law” it makes more sense to my mind. We are christians are supposed to be free from the law and married to Christ.  However when it comes to Christianity it seems most denominations are more than willing to slap all kind of “rules” on us. Trying to keep the rules as a method of being right with God kicks us out of grace.

For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s grace. Galatians 5:4

This brings us back to rule keeping as a way to be “right” It’s exhausting and a yoke that “our fathers could not keep”. Yet we have all kinds of man made rules and dubious doctrines from people who tell us how to wear our hair or what kinds of clothing to wear. They have rules about dancing, musical instruments, reproduction and all kinds of little laws that separate us from God’s grace. The thing they all share at the root is fear. It is important for Satan to put fear back on you because everything he does stems from the power of fear.

Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear? Acts 15:10 KJV

When you take the above verse and put in “rules” for “the law” it puts a lot of denominations into the light of Christ and the freedom he gives us. Christianity is not about following rules its about a new and living way which is being controlled by the spirit of Christ. The bible calls the law the ministry of death. It also says the strength of sin is in the law. When we take the law out of the picture we bind the strong man as Jesus said we should. Paul says the only way we would not break the law was if there were no laws to break.

Romans 7:4 the message:
So, my friends, this is something like what has taken place with you. When Christ died he took that entire rule-dominated way of life down with him and left it in the tomb, leaving you free to “marry” a resurrection life and bear “offspring” of faith for God. For as long as we lived that old way of life, doing whatever we felt we could get away with, sin was calling most of the shots as the old law code hemmed us in. And this made us all the more rebellious. In the end, all we had to show for it was miscarriages and stillbirths. But now that we’re no longer shackled to that domineering mate of sin, and out from under all those oppressive regulations and fine print, we’re free to live a new life in the freedom of God.

For Christ (being controlled by his spirit) is the end of rules for righteousness to every one that believeth. Romans 10:4 KJV

It’s trust in God that makes us right with him.

Romans 4:13
That famous promise God gave Abraham—that he and his children would possess the earth—was not given because of something Abraham did or would do. It was based on God’s decision to put everything together for him, which Abraham then entered when he believed. If those who get what God gives them only get it by doing everything they are told to do and filling out all the right forms properly signed, that eliminates personal trust completely and turns the promise into an ironclad contract! That’s not a holy promise; that’s a business deal. A contract drawn up by a hard-nosed lawyer and with plenty of fine print only makes sure that you will never be able to collect. But if there is no contract in the first place, simply a promise—and God’s promise at that—you can’t break it.

http://bible.cc/1_john/5-8.htm

If your a Christian for long the devil will attack you. Most people don’t know anything about this but the word of God is clear. It says to use every part of the armor of God every time the devil attacks.

So he is coming.

The attacks can take place with circumstances, disease, but most of the time its thoughts, compulsions or feelings. It could be a spiritual attack. It could come as the word of God misused. It might be against your righteousness.

If you hear the word it will agree with the spirit and the blood. If its out of context it won’t.

If you “feel” bad or not like you should then it does not agree with the blood and the word.

Since we are supposed to take every thought captive. They all must agree. All thoughts from Gods spirit agree with the blood (your righteousness) and God’s word.

“We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10:5

Everything must agree. Knowing this allows us to judge thoughts correctly knowing that they all agree with the word, the blood and the spirit.

hey Tim idk if you remember me but i had a question. Why did God create me…I would rather not be created but he made me when I never asked for life. I don’t understand how he could make man who never asked for this and who received a sinful nature which was beyond their control.. and God could judge men for sinning when the only reason we sin is because of what Adam and eve did. how is that our fault.

This might seem random but its been lingering in my mind for a while now and I thought you could help

Everything seems beyond our control but God still judges us for it.

My reply: (if its underlined you can click it for the bible verse)

Your only seeing half of it without God’s fix. Your right in thinking it wasn’t fair and that God should fix it. It shows us in the bible that God thought something along those lines and took the most drastic steps to fix the problem rather than just ignoring it.

In Romans it says one man sinned and got everyone in trouble and then one man got it right, and got everyone out of the trouble. God took care of your problem. When you trust in Christ he makes you able not to sin.

It was “legal” that we were all in trouble but it wasn’t fair really. Instead of standing idly by it says God took human form (God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, the bible says). He took upon his own self all the punishment due us, so that when we trust him we can be innocent. Whoever trusts him can stop sinning. Sinning is being controlled by Satan since real government is spiritual. When someone sins Satan has the legal right to control him since he has legal rights to everyone that obeys him. The legal right is given to him when we yield to his control. 

When you yield to Jesus control you have the right to say no to sin all though it still urges you. That urge is the spiritual control the devil is exerting. Jesus stops that power from working since his sacrifice removes the legal rights the devil has when we exercise our faith in that sacrifice. To say that God did nothing is ignoring the giant expense and pain he went through. And does God still judge us, well it says those that trust Christ do not come into judgement. Christ was judged guilty since he died in the flesh. God judged sin in the flesh. His flesh paid for all sins.

was thinking about this and saw that you had very strong faith in the judgment of God. You absolutely believe that God holds us accountable for our sins. You have faith in it. If you have the same amount of faith in what Jesus did on the cross you would reign in life. (they that accept the abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness will reign in life as kings. – seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness)

What Jesus did on the cross is the same as God’s judgment on sin. Its just as final. God judged sin in the flesh. Jesus flesh took your sin and it was judged. A totally righteous person had all the sins of the world piled on his body even though he never did anything wrong. God sees that judgment when he looks at you or I when we trust in Christ He does not see only one part it in the way you are. He considers both judgments.

Since it was a lack of trust that caused mans fall it is trust in Gods provision of a sin sacrifice that restores the relationship. Its a fair and balanced solution. “the just shall walk by “loyal” trust.”

I see you using your faith in God’s judgment “against us” in your statement above. If you use the same faith in his judging sin in the body of Christ you will reign in life like a king. Both judgments are true but the latter one supersedes the first. It is unjust to see just God’s judgment “against us” without also giving equal weight to his “paying for” that sin in the body of Christ. When you see both in equal weight you arrive at God’s grace. Its mathematical.
Man = mans flesh + mans spirit m=(mf)(ms)
Jesus=Jesus flesh + Jesus Spirit =(Jf)(jS)
Man (mF) +(ms)=sin (s)
Jesus (Jf)(Js) =righteousness (r)
so (mf)(ms) + (jf)(js) = s + r

Subtracting Jesus flesh also subtracts sin in the flesh, since god judged sin in the flesh So you take out sin and the flesh from the equation.

You take out (FLESH) Jf and mf (flesh) and s (SIN) this leaves MS+JS=R

In this case the plus + is your faith in that sacrifice

Mans spirit + Jesus Spirit = Righteousness

If you have righteousness you will reign as a king in life, The head and not the tail, above and not beneath.

Without Jesus taking your sin and without his power to help you you will still be in the control of sin and destined for the eternal garbage pail.

So if through the spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body you shall live (Romans 8)

This is why it says “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me, the life I live in the flesh I live by faith in the son of God. Trusting Christ allows us to have his life, all life is spiritual.

We then become subject to Christ (his spirit) instead of subject to law. It calls law the ministry of death in the bible since no one could keep the law it made all guilty and therefore dead to God. Jesus became a curse of the law for us.
This shows we live from moment to moment trusting Christ, ( Christ =anointing) “the anointing breaks the yoke” Trusting Christ for the power to do right allows us to do what is right and keeps us safe from the other spiritual government that is currently operating since that satanic government no longer has legal rights to us. In Christ our sins are paid for, without him we are subject to the current world government that has legal rights to us via our sin. Trusting Christ cuts you off from the worlds puppet strings and allows you to be controlled by God (God’s Kingdom or rule) which is where we are supposed to be all along. Christ is God in a form which we can understand and comes to meet us on our level.
