Light

These scriptures in John 1 shows us that Jesus is the Word of God and is God and that he made everything.

These scriptures also say that Jesus gives life and the life was the light of men.

The life Jesus gives us is our own spirit that is given to all humans at conception, without our own spirit we could not live and grow.

In the Old Testament and New Testament, the scriptures say that God the Father gave us all our own spirit:

Hebrews 12:9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live!

Numbers 27:16 “May the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation

Zechariah 12:1 An oracle of the word of the LORD concerning Israel. Thus declares the LORD, who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth, who forms the spirit of man within him:

Our spirit is a light within us.

Proverbs 20:27 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.

Proverbs 20:20 Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.

Now read these scriptures, it says plainly that Jesus is life and the life that was the light of men, that he lighteth every man that cometh into the world.  The Old Testament scriptures say God the Father is the one who gives all humans their spirit that gives them light.  This proves that Jesus is God the Father come in the flesh as a son.

The Beginning

John 1:1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made

Arrogance and Pride

Blinded by this world,
full of arrogance and pride,
darkness lurked around me,
and slowly seeped inside.

Similar to a lost sheep,
I wandered far away,
losing my sense of direction,
I had totally gone astray.

My life was full of mistakes,
corruption, wickedness and sin,
I Longed for God’s forgiveness,
I longed for His Spirit within.

I cried out to the Lord Jesus,
and repented from my deeds,
expecting His righteous anger,
but compassion He gave to me.

Replacing darkness with His light,
He made a path for me,
Gently guiding me in God’s ways,
no longer blind I now can see.

A Prayer of Brokenness

For I consider the sufferings of this present time

are not worthy to be compared with the glory that will be revealed in us.

But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer

through Him [Jesus] who loved us and gave His life for us.

Romans 8:18 and 37 NASB

The following is a prayer I wrote a few years ago while going through an intensely difficult season of my life due to an ongoing trial that has lasted many years. I wonder, do my words echo your heart?

Father, my heart hurts. I want to cry and never stop. The pain is so great right now and I see no end in sight. I can’t hear You. What are You telling me? Comfort me, Father! Cause me to know the way I should walk…make my path straight and clear. Enable me to release the weight of this burden. I know people are not the “real” enemy…but it still hurts when they are so indifferent…so mean…so heartless…How do I walk this path, Father without becoming bitter and hard?… How?

Lord, give me eyes to see my circumstances as You see them, give me Your perspective. I’ve lost my way in the darkness of this trial. Help me, Lord! Your Word says You are near the brokenhearted and save such as are crushed with sorrow. I qualify! Your Word also says “Am I a God who is near declares the Lord and not far off?” Increase my faith, Father. Enable me to walk by faith…

Walking in Darkness

The other night I was reading in the Book of Romans and I was able to understand what’s going on in our world today. Yes, it’s Bible Prophecy things which were foretold long ago, but, it goes much deeper than that. These things didn’t happen over night and from what I have read it starts out with this;

For the wrath of God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of people who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, that is, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, being understood by what has been made, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:18-20

Is it any wonder the world will suffer God’s wrath?

Those who refuse to acknowledge God, His creation and His power or doomed, because, we’re told He made it so we could plainly understand and would be without excuse. All one needs to do is look around at nature, the different plants, the animals and mankind to understand we were created. Since mankind is so complex, multicellular, and each of our systems works independently and upon one another, there’s no doubt in my mind that we were wonderfully created by Almighty Yəhōwā (God, Jevoha, Yahweh).

But Jevoha didn’t stop there, no, he provided more information and this ties directly into what we see with what’s going on in our country and the world today. The Apostle Paul says;

For even though they knew God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh), they did not honor Him as God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) or give thanks, but they became futile in their reasonings, and their senseless hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and they exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) for an image in the form of corruptible mankind, of birds, four-footed animals, and crawling creatures. Therefore God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) gave them up to vile impurity of the lusts of their hearts, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. For they exchanged the truth of God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) for falsehood, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Romans 1:21-25

This is exactly what’s going on in our country today. Those who claim science is the answer to everything, those who believe in themselves instead of God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh), those who blatanly refuse to accept God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) as our CREATOR, their hearts have been darkened and they’ve been given over to vile impurity of the lust of their hearts.

It’s why we see so much lawlessness and corruption taking place today. These are those who have refused to accept, acknowledge and honor God (Jevoha, Yəhōwā, Yahweh) as our Creator. But one final thought which the Apostle Paul makes when he says;

For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged natural relations for that which is contrary to nature, and likewise the men, too, abandoned natural relations with women and burned in their desire toward one another, males with males committing shameful acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God gave them up to a depraved mind, to do those things that are not properpeople having been filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, and evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy, unfeeling, and unmerciful; and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also approve of those who practice them. Romans 1:26-31

From these scriptures alone we can see that the world’s corruption, wickedness and evilness today stems from the fact that people have rejected the Creator, Jevoha (Yəhōwā, Yahweh, God), and when this happens He gives them over to a depraved mind.

What we see going on in our world today is a direct implication of this, the transhuman agenda, the transgender ideology, homosexuality, abortion, murder, smash and grabs, the climate control cult, vaccination mandates, corruption in the church, in politics and in schools, the new age cult, and those who are lovers of themselves (those who tend to be narcissistic, sociopathic, psychopathic, authoritarian and dictators) are compromised.

But there is hope, in the Son of God, the Messiah, Yeshua, Jesus! He can turn their darkness into light and they can live an eternal life in His Kingdom just by hearing and accepting the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned. Isaiah 9:2
