GOD’S HAND WORKING IN YOU

Psalm 128:8 says, “The LORD will perfect that which concerneth [involves] me…Forsake not the works of Thine own hands.” We are constantly being a work in progress as God fits us in maturity to reflect His word, the image of Christ in us.

The Amplified Bible says Psalm 138:8 like this: “The LORD will accomplish that which concerns me…Do not abandon the works of Your own hands.”

God shapes us through His word and Holy Spirit. He also has given (ordained) people to help bring us into maturity. Chief among these is found in Ephesians 4:11. They are apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers who are given to us. Ephesians 4:12-13 says, “For the perfecting [maturing] of the saints [ all born again believers] …for the edifying [instruction] of the body of Christ ‘til we come in the unity of [faith in] the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect [mature, established] man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ.”

Our Heavenly Father (YAHH) has taken responsibility to “fit us” for His kingdom of heaven. He has provided everything that we need for it. But it is our responsibility (by our free will) to receive it so that we may grow and mature in our faith walk of life.

Keep your eyes on the word and your inner spirit ears tuned to the Holy Spirit. He will bring you into that “perfection.”

THE FREE WILL OF MAN

God created man in his own image, spirit, soul, and body. In the very beginning Adam and Eve had the Spirit of God dwelling within them. They were covered with the glory of God. This was their covering of perfection. God gave Adam an assignment as what he should do, and also gave him instructions as to what not to do. He did not force Adam to do what He asked, he gave Adam the free will to choose and then live with the choices he made.

We do not know how long Adam and Eve were in the garden, but Satan came in and brought them information contrary to what God had said. He deceived them into believing that God was holding out on them. Because they listened to Satan and not God, they sinned. They did this as an act of their free will.

God could have stepped into the situation and demanded Adam not to eat of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, but he allowed them the free will to choose.

God still does this with mankind. He created man for fellowship but gives us the choice to go with His way or go our own way, listening to the voice of Satan and the unsaved world’s voice.

Some would say that God sends people to hell, but that in itself is not a true statement. God made a way through Jesus Christ for each of us to escape hell, but we choose to go or not. He doesn’t pull our strings and force us to choose Jesus. He simply draws us to himself by Holy Spirit and it is up to us to choose Him or not. Our free will is what determines our destiny, which is either life with God in heaven or separation from God in hell.

Do not ever think that God is a puppeteer. He gives us chance after chance to choose the right way. We make the choice and then must live with it.

What about the Christian? Does he still have a free will? Absolutely! Each of us still must choose to walk in the “light” or resist it. We reap the consequences of our choices. Yet the difference between the believer and non-believer is through repentance we are back in relationship with God. But repentance is again our choice.

We serve an amazing God that never forces us to love him. One day, when Jesus returns things will be settled as to each person’s ultimate destination. Until then, we surrender our will to God and He rewards us for our obedience. We can never go wrong making the right choice.

PROPHETIC WORD

AS GIVEN TO HELEN SANDERS

For I have set you apart for this season saith the Lord, and I would say, come to the winepress and I will show you how the wine is made. Do you see the grapes my child? They are fully ripe and have been harvested; but now is the time for the crushing. You see my child there is no pouring out of the wine without the crushing of the grapes. The grapes are the fruit in your life that I am pleased with, but now it is time for the fruit to be crushed so the pure wine of the vine can come forth. Do you notice that the grapes are put there by the ones that have grown them? Do you notice how they are poured onto the press? Do you think the grapes realize that this is the time for change? No, my child for if they knew they would escape the husbandman’s hand and would flee. They are harvested for this hour and for this purpose. Watch closely as the press begins. It will begin slowly for if it was speedily the grapes would fall from the press. Then as the process begins, the crushing becomes more intense, and the hulls of the grapes are sifted from the pure fruit of the vine. So, it will be with you, my child. You will see this hour as something very unpleasant as the crushing away of those things has to happen to bring forth the true fruit of the vine in your life. As it is crushed, it changes the way the grape is viewed. It no longer is plush full and ready to be eaten. For you, the grapes of my field were chosen to be the precious wine that can only come through the crushing. I will take you now to the olive press my child, and you shall see how the oil comes forth. It too only comes forth through the crushing of the fruit, but what comes forth is the anointing oil that brings forth the anointing in your life. So too, shall the things that need to be crushed to bring forth the anointing will happen with you my child, for I long to pour my anointing out upon you, but it will only come through the crushing. Oh, you have the fruit, but the fruit must be crushed to bring forth the anointing. Now that you have seen the press my child it is up to you to go through this process, but I can assure you that the outcome will be far more valuable than the pain of the crushing. You shall see things change in your life as the wine and the oil are poured out from you and into others. Will you be as one that surrenders and says not my will but thine oh Lord be done? If so, my child be prepared for this season of crushing. It will begin slowly but will become very intense even so that your entire being would cry out to me and ask why I have forsaken you, but you must realize this must take place to be used as the precious oil and wine for my kingdom, saith the Lord.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

1-19-2023

There’ll be times when life calls on us all to make some difficult decisions; Or to do some other really trying and hard things. Even now there are those who’re reading this…And you’re being faced head on with this very type of situation. It may even seem next to impossible to you at the moment. Oh, but yet you know in your heart that you must take a firm stand and remain strong. The truth of the matter is you gotta be strong enough to simply walk away; And then keep a healthy distance from anyone or anything that causes a disruption to your life. I’m sure you could think of those who constantly rob you of your peace and your joy. It somehow seems like they’re always the ones who causes your peace and your joy to become interrupted. Just know that you’re not alone in this situation; Neither are you the only one who’s had folks or situations to cause you to temporarily loose your treasured peace and joy. So bottom line it…And if possible you need to get away from the people, the places, the circumstances and the situations that keeps you from being able to maintain these two most valued things...Your PEACE of MIND and your JOY. Yes, it’s past time that you do your best to be courageous enough to implement healthy boundaries in your life. This in turn will help you to keep from getting overly involved again with toxic people and toxic places that have proven to be quite the disruption to your entire life. Therefore it’s time to stop procrastinating and do yourself a big favor; And weed out the people and the things from your heart and your life that simply aren’t good for you. Face it…Only you have the keys to do this. So just do it and you’ll walk in sweet peace and victory.

A Comforter! HCC

How beautiful this day when I spend it Lord with you.

We talk together, I read your word.

My life each day renewed.

Your words of love and discipline,

Guide each step I take. When I fail or maybe fall,

You pick me up, dust me off,

To try again, another day.

A comforter you are. And who would die for me?

Who would save me from all sins?

Yes, you, my Savior Lord. With you I will surely win.

A life where there’s no grief. A life of no mistakes.

A life of peace and harmony, where Christ reigns.

What a home!!
