Awake In The Name Of Christ Jesus!

Fellow Ministers and workers of Christ, if you truly do have a zeal for God's Word the truth', you will Wake Up". Awake from your slumber, your false teaching's', says Our Lord God Almighty'. For the time is coming of true revelation into the things of which were unseen, are now being made seen to those who truly repent from there pagan worldly ways, and honor the One True Living God!

1 John (4:1-6)
We are from God, and whoever does not know God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognise the Spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.

1 John (2:27)
As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit--just as it has taught you, remain in him.

Galatians (1:8)
But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse!

Revelation (16:14)
They are spirits of demons performing miraculous signs, and they go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them for the battle on the great day of God Almighty.

Hebrews (1:14)
Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?

Romans (16:18)
For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.

Acts (8:9-13)
Now for some time a man named Simon had practiced sorcery in the city and amazed all the people of Samaria. He boasted that he was someone great, and all the people, both high and low, gave him their attention and exclaimed, “This man is rightly called the Great Power of God.” They followed him because he had amazed them for a long time with his sorcery. But when they believed Philip as he proclaimed the good news of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. Simon himself believed and was baptized. And he followed Philip everywhere, astonished by the great signs and miracles he saw.

James (3:1)
Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be judged with greater strictness.

1 Corinthians (1:17)
For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

1 Corinthians (1:23)
But we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles.

Mark (1:15)
“The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.”

Galatians (1:6-10)
I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel--which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God’s curse! As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under God’s curse!

Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.

Matthew (4:17)
From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

Psalm (32:6-8)
Therefore, let everyone who is godly pray to You in a time when You may be found;
Surely in a flood of great waters they will not reach him.
You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble;
You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah.
I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go;
I will counsel you with My eye upon you. This I therefore issue an invitation to "everyone who is godly." This includes every New Testament believer, every person who knows the Lord, having received Jesus Christ by faith. I urge all God's people to pray, even in the midst of "a flood of great waters," when all seems hopeless. God's promises will provide the same deliverance to us that He brought to David.

Place your full attention on God. He is the One who protects us, preserves us, surrounds us, and even gives us a song. Selah (again, pause and consider)! A guilt-ridden conscience casts God as a cruel deity, walking around with a club, looking for sinners to smash. That's because sin distorts the truth. David breaks out into songs of deliverance! "You are my hiding place; You preserve me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah."

What a comforting picture, especially to those who have been in deep sin and seek forgiveness!
