    👉🏻 hotm.art/Discover-Prosperity-with-God 👈🏻
    Welcome to the first step of your journey towards true prosperity with God. With this eBook, like many, you are in search of something more. Perhaps you feel there is a gap in your life, an empty space that not even money, success, or interpersonal relationships can fill. And you have probably realized that the answer might lie in something deeper, something spiritual.
    The concept of prosperity is often misunderstood. In a society focused on material gains, it's easy to confuse prosperity with financial wealth. However, true prosperity goes far beyond material goods. It involves a life rich in values, meaning, and purpose. And, for many, this is intrinsically linked to a deep and enriching relationship with God.

      john 10:25-30 john 5:538-44
      if you don't hear Jesus speak to you like abraham could hear God speak to him then you don't know Jesus and He will say to you He doesn't know you
      just simply going by john 3:16 isn't enough and if ya'll actually pay attention to what Jesus Christ said and says it is according to Jesus not according to me
      if ya'll isn't praying repenting and asking Jesus to speak to ya'll then that's ya'lls first mistake especially if you claim to be a christian
      you don't belong to God Jesus Christ and you isn't one of His true children if you don't hear Him speak to you on a daily basis in you're spirit
      Jesus speaking to us is not a voice in our head/mind you listen to something evil if you go by you're thoughts and or voices in you're head/mind
      that isn't God Jesus Christ and that isn't His Holy Spirit speaking to you if it is a voice in you're head/mind
      only God can speak into our spirit, that is why the evil one's try to speak to us with voices in our head/mind to try to trick and deceive us
      ya'll had better be repenting and praying for the truth and for Jesus's help and be asking for the Holy Spirit to be given to you and ask for you're spiritual eyes and spiritual ears to be opened
      and rebuke all the evil one's witches and warlocks celebs etc included not just satan and the demons rebuke everything that is wicked and evil evetyday on a daily basis
      and the only way to have a relationship with God Jesus Christ is to pray for it ask Jesus to speak to us and let Jesus speak not any other way
      only in spirit with God's spirit in with our own spirit in the spiritual realm is a relationship possible with God truly and that is a real connection with God truly
      if you are claiming any other way then you are a liar and you had better go repent and stop telling lies and stop preaching lies
      and i saw some other video of yours the clickbait with that 1 eyed symbolism you had better not be a free mason/illuminati member because you will go to hell if you continue to be a member of that group if you are one of them people that is
      only lies does that group tell and preach and only false god worship and a lot of wicked things does that group do, and God will not tolerate it repent and actually go to Jesus to have life and listen to Jesus speak to you and obey Jesus or perish in hell if you don't

      and stop putting up and stop using false images of god Jesus Christ just to make a video
      you only anger God towards you and about them false images by doing that
      God does not appreciate those false images and it does glorify Him even if you have good intentions with using it
      it only angers God when people use false images and false interpretations of Him repent and stop doing that if you don't want God angry at/with you
      if you want to preach about God Jesus Christ then that is fine as long as it is the truth you speak no need for images though
      so no i am not telling you to stop preaching, but you are going to want to consider to stop using such images though

      The living word of God is written in scripture. He is now in the image of the Holy Ghost, he does not speak vocal words, I have had a personal relationship with Jesus and have for 59 years, if I ever have any kind of spirit, speak to me, whether I am having a dream or am wide awake, there ain't no way I would believe that it was God Jesus, telling me the way to show my love for him, is to, put my child on a chopping block. and take the one and only son that Merciful God ,just blessed me with, at 90 years old, the leaving word of God in scripture is that we are to LOVE one another the way I have LOVED YOU. It's not rocket science, you just have to know how to read 📖 and knowing that God is LOVE, . Spirituality without religion is dangerous. If I ever hear the voice of a spirit speaking, I will know , imaculantley. that it's not God's word . If you don't have the morality to decern with the knowledge that God is Love, if a fruit tree, does bring forth, fruit, it is not of God,

      you just called Jesus the Christ Himself a liar with you're comment you had better go pray you don't know God Jesus Christ if all you do is read the bible
      maybe you really actually should read that bible because Jesus Christ Himself said they think they are righteous just because they said yes to God but they don't do the will of the father
      Jesus also said why do you call me lord lord but not do as i say?
      Jesus also said if you where righteous you would be sinless
      Jesus also said a sinner is of the devil and a sinner not forever in the house/family forever but a son abides forever
      Jesus also said lest a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God and Jesus said unless a man be born again he cannot enter the kingdom of God
      obviously you are greatly deceived believing in satan's lives if all you think is John 3:16 and read you're bible will somehow save you when Jesus the Christ Himself taught and preached holiness,repentance,works and obedience not a grace gospel

    The most frightening words no one ever created would ever want to hear from our Savior!!!

    • @PathsofUnderstanding
      @PathsofUnderstanding  10 місяців тому +31

      The phrase 'I have never known you' spoken by our Savior is indeed a solemn affirmation and an important reminder of our spiritual responsibility. It is recorded in Matthew 7:23 and reminds us of the importance of having a genuine relationship with God.
      It is essential that we recognize that our salvation and our relationship with God are established by His grace and our faith in Jesus Christ. In Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV), it is written: 'For by grace ye are saved through faith; and this is not from you, it is a gift of God; not of works, that no one should boast.'
      However, Jesus' words in Matthew 7:23 also remind us of the importance of not only professing our faith, but living a life of obedience and devotion to Him. As Christians, we seek not only to know God intellectually, but also to have a personal relationship with Him, demonstrating our love and obedience through our actions.
      May we all seek to deepen our relationship with God by demonstrating our love for Him and others, as taught by Jesus in Matthew 22:37-39. 'You will love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul and all your understanding.' and 'You will love your neighbor as yourself.' So we can live in harmony with God’s will and be sure that we are known to Him.

      I'll tell you what Jesus meant. Anyone who is a Christian and they are to busy to spend time with the Lord they have no fellowship with him, when they stand before God He will say to them I never knew you. You can know about someone but you cant know them unless you spend time with them. Its like what i use to hear about a man and a women dating. Someone said you dont know them until you live with them. And how true that is. When you spend much time with someone you get to know them times you will even know what they are going to do before they even do it. So is it with God you have to spend time with Him in order to know Him. The problem with most Christians is SELF is their god. Its true. You will spend time pleasing self but not God. You will give self anything it wants if you can afford it but you wont give a Christian brother or sister what they need to help them out. Self is your god. You will go see a sinner friend but you wont go visit a Christian who needs you. He said, they honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. God said my people have forgotten me days without number.

      Thank you Jesus for being so merciful, we don't deserve it. Who else could be more grateful and praise God than someone who received such mercy from him and Jesus Christ. Our God is so compassionate all we have to do is accept his gift with gratitude and try to help others receive compassion as well, as we received it. God is incomprehensively loving and kind, he just wants appreciation and reciprocal love.

      Many are called, few are chosen.
      No one who remains in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has seen Him or known Him. Little children, let no one deceive you: The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as Christ is righteous. The one who practices sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil.…

    I'd always said "Don't let some preacher touch me ..like on tv and make it look like Jesus had slain me in the Spirit" and then one day I was just raising my hands and Praising Jesus with my eyes closed at the alter. (Let me remind you..I was minding my own business) Then all of a sudden I felt arms all around me laying me gently in the floor, like a mother laying her newborn child gently in a crib. I asked a lady beside me if she had seen someone laying me in the floor(..I was still on the floor). She said no one had touched me. I told her that I had felt hands all over my body gently laying me down. She said, "It was The Lord". She said I had went down so quick that no one had time to catch me. I began to praise Jesus even more, but like doubting Thomas I wasn't sure if anyone was being honest with me. My husband was sitting in the back of the last pews in the church. So I approached him and ask him if he saw anyone laying me in the floor. He said I had went down like somebody shot me. I had slammed on the floor so hard. Well I thought maybe he's just messing with me. So before we went to bed that night I asked Jesus to give me a sign if it was really true. Then the next morning I looked in the mirror and my face was black and blue with bruises all over. I laughed and told Jesus that I hadn't felt any pain at all because of His gentleness. The moral of this true story is that now I'm not afraid of death or the pain of when it's my time to go..even if they cut off my head because Jesus will take over the whole situation. He will protect me even if my body is destroyed and I'll be with Him automatically. Like I'm falling asleep and the next moment waking up to realize I'm with Him for an eternity. There will be no fear involved. The devil likes us to be afraid and he gets stronger, but resist the devil and he will flee and so will the fear. Knowing all we can about God will make us stronger and stronger. If anyone doesn't "Know God, like a husband and wife, a real relationship" I would suggest that as a high priority. Him First! Perfect Love casts out all fear! Acts 2:38 kjv 💗🙏

      Thank you for sharing your powerful and personal testimony of your experience with the Lord's presence. Your story illustrates the intimate and transformative relationship that can be fostered through faith in Jesus Christ.
      The Bible reminds us of the importance of seeking a personal and deep connection with God. Your reference to Acts 2:38, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit," aligns with the biblical call to turn to God, receive His Spirit, and experience His transformative love.
      Your testimony also highlights the fearlessness that comes from knowing and trusting in God's love and protection. In 2 Timothy 1:7, it says, "For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control."
      May your story serve as an inspiration for others to seek a deeper and more intimate relationship with God, where perfect love casts out all fear.

    Because this video has seemed to attract a certain group of devout, but lost people desperate to be saved and not understanding why they feel something is wrong I have decided to share something personal here which I have been led to feel will help someone here who needs to hear this, I am usually very shy about very personal stuff so this is a little tough on me, hope it helps someone.
    When I came back to Jesus about 3 weeks ago, after walking away at around the age of 15 (35-36 years ago), I felt the need to be baptized again because the first time I was young (12) and maybe didn't fully understand my choice, didn't realize it meant departing from the old self through the burial and resurrection of baptism, after doing this rebaptism (which was not the wrong part) I was struggling hard for the first 1 1/2 weeks because although I had come back to the Lord, I still felt emptiness inside, lack of any real connection through the Holy Spirit, I felt no spiritual tingling or force at all the way I did at the moment when I was baptized as a youth, I was devastated, I felt nothing different in my life at all except that I now had to obey, I felt it meant God had refused to take me back, I almost felt like dying because life didn't matter anymore if God didn't want me and hated me what was life worth anymore, I would still serve God, but not really knowing if it did me any good and no spiritual guidance, and then after some very intense prayer and listening very intently I felt something very faintly whispering to my soul answering me, telling me it had been my own lack of faith that caused me to be blocked, it was happening because I had decided that I had to call God back to me, win Him back to me, beg him to come back from leaving me after I had made stupid choices and went astray. The truth became revealed at that point, God had never left me, I left God, but though man doesn't always keep his commitments God does, always, and the fact that I assumed He would break his commitment because I did or that I had to perform any good deeds and works for Him to earn Him back or that I had to straighten things out in my life to win His favor and be accepted again. It's because I didn't truly accept that once we are first accepted by Him, justified by Him and sealed by the Holy Spirit we are His, from then on it all has to do with His grace and our faith and trust in His grace and trust in His loyalty to his promises, not our obedience or works or deeds, those are just things that happen naturally if you live by faith. God doesn't Unseal us and he doesn't revoke, he sits in utter silence and waits for us to figure it out, sometimes He tries to correct us, by making our wrong path very difficult and painful to steer us right, because faith is our connection to Him, Faith in the Father and Jesus is our righteousness that makes us worthy by His sacrifice, faith in Him, not in us. It was then, when I realized this at that moment when this realization came I had an overwhelming pouring of emotion and love and regret, I felt so stupid for not getting it, I cried off and on for 2 days about my own doubt in the loyalty of such a great and merciful Father, I even cried about how awesome He is for even looking my direction at this worthless, faithless wretch. I figured out I knew nothing about How really powerful His love is and how enduring, even with everything we blame Him for, cuss Him out about, we blame Him for every evil thing that happens to us in our lives and still He continues to love His people, enduring, merciful love, but not the kind that just gives us what we want when we are in rebellion.

    This is unimpeachable faith is the key to everything, when Jesus told His disciples to leave the children alone that were coming to him, bothering Him in their opinion.
    Matthew 19:14, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”
    Luke 18:16-17 16 But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 17 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”
    Why are these two passages so critical to salvation....because children do not believe that they must follow all the rules, do everything right in order to be loved, accepted and forgiven by their Father, they have complete faith that if they tell their Father what they did wrong, admit error, and tell they will try to do better, Father will forgive them and all will be ok. Adults cannot hardly comprehend this set of rules for grown adults. Adults think they have to prove their loyalty and do a bunch of good works and good deeds to prove they have changed themselves before they can receive their Father's redemption and grace is lost/blocked by this lack of faith in our Father, so it seems the way to loose salvation truly is to lose faith in God's overwhelming kindness and love and that he will keep his covenant with you, and as soon as our faith in this is restored by us, we are redeemed, Hence a big lesson here for anyone who reads this, we are saved by faith, not doing good things.
    If you think doing good will save you, and that your faith in God's grace isn't what saves you, your salvation stops because YOU think you lost it by not being good enough, if you think this way you will probably be one of those who hear those words that is the subject of this video we just watched, even though you devoted your life to Jesus, if you didn't believe your salvation was a gift and not something you can earn and that it will be taken back if you aren't earning enough good deed points. Then that is how it will be.
    This is the biggest thing to take from this...as you bind things on Earth, so they are bound in heaven. On earth as it is in heaven, etc. We are being reminded throughout the bible, but it's something you have to figure out. When it says in the Bible that we were made in God's likeness, it means that we are also creators of a sort. This is why Jesus had to fulfill every single prophecy about the Messiah before he could die, even at His last breath when he was offered a sip of vinegar wine, that was the last one, then He said, "It has been done" and died. The things God's people create by their will and the words coming out of their mouth when imbued with the Holy Spirt can become real and binding. That is why we need to be careful of what we say when in the Spirit and use careful discernment when making vocal pronouncements and judging other people.
    You are the one who can cause your way of being judged to be changed by making it happen through your own belief through the power of the Spirit, you decide how you are going to be judged, by law or by faith in God's covenant that He made with you when you were first baptized, a covenant sealed by His blood. You can have faith that you ARE saved and protected and that it is forever because a covenant has been made and God never lies, or you could have faith that you will get there only if God decided you did good enough in the works you did and your prostration. Here is the stumbling block, nobody has ever accomplished salvation by the law except Jesus and He had Devine power and He also had complete faith in His Father to keep His covenant and raise Jesus from the dead. Yes, you should all do good works, every chance you get, but do it as a thank you to God because of the overwhelming gift He gave you. Not because you think it's your way to get to heaven. Never doubt God, He is faithful. God bless those who seek Him and have the eyes and ears to hear and to see, guide them to you Lord, Amen

      @@brainer5457 you are very welcome, have faith, if you were saved once you are still saved, the Holy Spirit is like the wind and will come and go as it deems necessary for the place you are in life, everything it does is to guide you towards the Lord and you your path to Him, if that means letting you feel alone, it will do that, also if you have blocked yourself for some time, it may take a little time to decern it's urging from your own thoughts, just pray on it and then believe that the connection will come at the proper time. Faith is key, don't beg again and again ask once and then wait in anticipation that it will happen at the proper time, faith is allowed to be tested by the enemy, but the Word says that you will not be tested beyond your capability to withstand, remember that even if you don't feel it sometime, God is with you and He will get you through it and restore what you have lost, He can restore years of damage in a matter of days, just trust His plan. Sometimes we need suffering to become better people who can empathize with those who will struggle with what you have endured. May the Lord guide us all to peace, understanding and service to His will that none should perish, but come to repentance and acceptance of forgiveness. God's will be done, in Christ's name, Amen

    The clue of Jesus’ words is in the word “…you men of lawlessness, depart from me”. Being a Christian is being a follower of Jesus Christ, who walks by faith and obedience to God’s laws just as Jesus did. “Lawlessness” means “do not abide” by the laws of God, i.e. the Ten Commandments. To walk with Christ is not only to preach about the gospel but to walk the laws through live. That is why Jesus said in the prayer of “our father”:”forgive us as we forgive our debtors”. Repent if you have sinned and get up and walk with Christ once more.

      Your comment reflects the struggle that many believers face at times, where they may feel a disconnect or spiritual dryness. It's important to remember that faith is a journey with its ups and downs, and it's natural to have moments of doubt or discouragement.
      Here are some thoughts that might help you strengthen your faith:
      Prayer: Continue to pray and express your feelings to God honestly. He understands your struggles and is always there to listen.
      Bible Study: Spend time in the Word of God. Reading and studying the Bible can provide guidance, inspiration, and a deeper understanding of your faith.
      Community: Connect with fellow believers who can offer support, encouragement, and share their own experiences in their faith journeys.
      Reflection: Take time to reflect on your life and the blessings you've received. Gratitude can help rekindle your spiritual thirst.
      Service: Engaging in acts of service and kindness can help you feel closer to God and His purpose for your life.
      Remember that faith is a process, and it's okay to have doubts and questions. Trust that God is patient and understanding. Blessings to you as you continue to seek and follow Christ. 🙏💕

      I'll tell you what Jesus meant. Anyone who is a Christian and they are to busy to spend time with the Lord they have no fellowship with him, when they stand before God He will say to them I never knew you. You can know about someone but you cant know them unless you spend time with them. Its like what i use to hear about a man and a women dating. Someone said you dont know them until you live with them. And how true that is. When you spend much time with someone you get to know them times you will even know what they are going to do before they even do it. So is it with God you have to spend time with Him in order to know Him. The problem with most Christians is SELF is their god. Its true. You will spend time pleasing self but not God. You will give self anything it wants if you can afford it but you wont give a Christian brother or sister what they need to help them out. Self is your god. You will go see a sinner friend but you wont go visit a Christian who needs you. He said, they honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. God said my people have forgotten me days without number.

      @biker38297 Thank you for sharing your insightful perspective on what Jesus meant by "I never knew you." Your emphasis on the importance of spending time with the Lord and having a genuine, intimate relationship with Him aligns with the teachings of the Bible.
      In Matthew 7:23, when Jesus speaks about not knowing someone, it underscores the significance of a personal and deep connection with God. This connection goes beyond mere lip service or outward religious acts and requires a heartfelt commitment to seek and know Him.
      You rightly point out the danger of prioritizing self over God and the need to focus on serving others as an expression of our love for God. The Bible encourages us to love our neighbors as ourselves (Matthew 22:39) and to show our faith through our actions (James 2:17).
      Your comments serve as a reminder of the importance of living out our faith through a genuine relationship with God and a willingness to love and serve others. May we all strive to have our hearts aligned with Him and prioritize our fellowship with the Lord.

      For years you have been dictated to and told that you are unworthy. How dare any teachings demean you and tell you that you're not worthy or good enough to be in the presence of a God who obviously doesn't care about your fate. You have wasted a good deal of your life on this useless entity and it hasn't done you one skerrick of good.
      It's time for you to shake off all the hangups associated with Christianity and become a real person, begin to appreciate and enjoy what the world offers you, fun, adventure and hedonism. No more feelings of guilt, paranoia, fear and unworthiness.
      Banish Jesus, God and all the luggage they have loaded you up with since childhood, explore your potential which has been suppressed for so long, open up your mind without any religious restrictions.
      Tell Jesus to mount his camel and take a hike. You'll be amazed at how good it makes you feel. Religion is for people who are afraid of life and don't have any faith in themselves.

    THE MESSAGE FOR AMERICA September, 1984 Dimitru Duduman Late one night, I could not sleep, The children were sleeping on the luggage. My wife and daughter were crying, I went outside and walked around. I didn't want them to see me cry. I walked around the building, crying and saying, "God! Why did you punish me? Why did you bring me into this country? I can't understand anybody. If I try to ask anybody anything, all I hear is, "I don't know." I stopped in front of the apartment and sat on a large rock. Suddenly a bright light came toward me. I jumped to my feet because it looked as if a car was coming directly at me, attempting to run me down! I thought the Romanian Secret Police had tracked me to America, and now they were trying to kill me. But it wasn't a car at all. As the light approached, it surrounded me. From the light I heard the same voice that I had heard so many times in prison. He said "Dumitru, why are you so despaired?" I said, "Why did you punish me? Why did you bring me to this country? I have nowhere to lay my head down. I can't understand anybody." He said, "Dumitru, didn't I tell you I am here with you, also? I brought you to this country because this country will burn." I said, 'then why did you bring me here to burn? Why didn't you let me die in my own country? You should have let me die in jail in Romania! He said, "Dumitru, have patience so I can tell you. Get on this." I got on something next to him. I don't know what it was. I also know that I was not asleep. It was not a dream. It was not a vision. I was awake just as I am now. He showed me all of California and said, "This is Sodom and Gomorrah! All of this, in one day it will burn! It's sin has reached the Holy One." Then he took me to Las Vegas. "This is Sodom and Gomorrah. In one day it will burn." Then he showed me the state of New York. "Do you know what this is?" he asked. I said, "No." He said "This is New York. This is Sodom and Gomorrah! In one day it will burn." Then he showed me all of Florida, "This is Florida." he said. "This is Sodom and Gomorrah! In one day it will burn." Then he took me back home to the rock where we had begun. "IN ONE DAY IT WILL BURN! All of this I have shown you" - I said, "How will it burn?" He said, "Remember what I am telling you, because you will go on television, on the radio and in churches. You must yell with a loud voice. Do not be afraid, because I will be with you." I said, "How will I be able to go? Who knows me here in America? I don't know anybody here." He said, "Don't worry yourself. I will go before you. I will do a lot of healing in the American churches and I will open the doors for you. But do not say anything else besides what I tell you. This country will burn!" I said, "What will you do with the church?" He said, "I want to save the church, but the churches have forsaken me." I said, "How did they forsake you?" He said, "The people praise themselves. The honor that the people are supposed to give Jesus Christ, they take upon themselves. In the churches there are divorces. There is adultery in the churches. There are homosexuals in the churches. There is abortion in the churches and all other sins that are possible. Because of all the sin, I have left some of the churches. You must yell in a loud voice that they must put an end to their sinning. They must turn toward the Lord. The Lord never gets tired of forgiving. They must draw close to the Lord, and live a clean life. If they have sinned until now, they must put an end to it, and start a new life as the Bible tells them to live." I said, "How will America burn?" America is the most powerful country in this world. Why did you bring us here to burn? Why didn't you at least let us die where ALL the Dudumans have died?" He said, "Remember this, Dumitru. The Russian spies have discovered where the nuclear warehouses are in America. When the Americans will think that it is peace and safety - from the middle of the country, some of the people will start fighting against the government. The government will be busy with internal problems. Then from the ocean, from Cuba, Nicaragua, Mexico,,.." (He told me two other countries, but I didn't remember what they were.) "...they will bomb the nuclear warehouses. When they explode, America will burn!" "What will you do with the Church of the Lord? How will you save the ones that will turn toward you?" I asked. He said, "Tell them this: how I saved the three young ones from the furnace of fire, and how I saved Daniel in the lions den, is the same way I will save them." The angel of the Lord also told me, "I have blessed this country because of the Jewish people who are in this country. I have seven million Jews in this country, but they do not want to recognize the Lord. They didn't want to thank God for the blessing they received in this country. Israel doesn't want to recognize Jesus Christ. They put their faith in the Jewish people in America. But, when America burns, the Lord will raise China, Japan, and other nations to go against the Russians. They will beat the Russians and push them all the way to the gates of Paris. Over there they will make a treaty, and appoint the Russians as their leaders. They will then unite against Israel. When Israel realizes she does not have the strength of America behind her, she will be frightened. That's when she will turn to the Messiah for deliverance. That's when the Messiah will come. Then, the church will meet Jesus in the air, and he will bring them back with Him to the Mount of Olives. At that time, the battle of Armageddon will be fought." When I heard all of this I said, "if you are truly the angel of the Lord, and everything you have told me is true, then all you have said must be written in the Bible." He said, "Tell everyone to read from Jeremiah 51:8-15, Revelation chapter 18, and Zechariah chapter 14, where Christ fights against those who possess the earth. After His victory," the angel said, "there will be one flock and one Shepherd. There will be no need for light. The Lamb of God will be the Light. There will be no sickness, no tears, and no deaths. There will only be eternal joy and God will be the ruler. There will be only one language. Only one song. And no need for a translator! ... And, Dumitru," he continued, "a word of warning. If you keep anything from the American people that you are told, I will punish you severely." "How will I know that this is for real -that it will really happen?" I asked. "As a sign that I have spoken to you, tomorrow before you wake, I will send someone to bring you a bed, and at noon I will send you a car and a bucket of honey. After which I will send someone to pay your rent." The next day someone brought Dumitru a bed, and at noon a car arrived with the bucket of honey. His rent was also paid, as God had promised him. (See chapter 10, "THROUGH THE FIRE WITHOUT BURNING.") Then the angel left. Excepted from: Dreams and Visions From God

      Repentance (to be saved) simply means the change of mind from A) belief in anyone other than Jesus to save us, to B) belief in ONLY Jesus to save us.

    • @PathsofUnderstanding
      @PathsofUnderstanding  7 місяців тому +1

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. It is true that our fellowship with God through prayer, study of the Word, and imitation of Christ in our daily lives are vital aspects of our spiritual journey.
      In Matthew 7:21-23, Jesus warns about the importance of not only professions of faith, but also a genuine relationship with Him. He says, "Not all that tells me, Lord, Lord! will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of my Father, who is in heaven."
      Therefore, it is crucial that we seek a personal and intimate connection with God, living according to His teachings and seeking His will in all areas of our lives. However, we must remember that our salvation is not based on our own efforts or merits, but on the grace of God.
      Ephesians 2:8-9 reminds us: "For by grace you are saved through faith; and this does not come from you; it is a gift of God; not works, that no one should boast."
      Therefore, as we seek to live a life that honors God and His will, we also trust in God’s grace and forgiveness when we fail. May we continue to seek a deeper relationship with Him, trusting in His grace to guide us on our spiritual journey.

      I'll tell you what Jesus meant. Anyone who is a Christian and they are to busy to spend time with the Lord they have no fellowship with him, when they stand before God He will say to them I never knew you. You can know about someone but you cant know them unless you spend time with them. Its like what i use to hear about a man and a women dating. Someone said you dont know them until you live with them. And how true that is. When you spend much time with someone you get to know them times you will even know what they are going to do before they even do it. So is it with God you have to spend time with Him in order to know Him. The problem with most Christians is SELF is their god. Its true. You will spend time pleasing self but not God. You will give self anything it wants if you can afford it but you wont give a Christian brother or sister what they need to help them out. Self is your god. You will go see a sinner friend but you wont go visit a Christian who needs you. He said, they honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. God said my people have forgotten me days without number.

      Thank you for sharing your passion for full-time evangelism, and I will certainly pray for your ministry's fruitfulness. May God's grace and guidance be with you as you embark on this important journey.
      The desire to spread the message of the Lord Jesus Christ is commendable and aligned with the Great Commission given by Jesus in Matthew 28:19-20: 'Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.'
      As you move forward in your evangelistic efforts, remember that your effectiveness ultimately depends on God's grace. In 2 Corinthians 9:8, it is written, 'And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.'
      Also, in Acts 1:8, Jesus promises, 'But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.' Rely on the Holy Spirit to empower your ministry and guide you in sharing the gospel.
      Your belief in the imminent return of the Lord Jesus Christ is a source of hope and motivation. In Revelation 22:20, Jesus says, 'He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon."' As you share this hope with others, may it inspire them to turn to Christ and find salvation.
      May God bless you abundantly in your evangelistic endeavors, granting you wisdom, boldness, and a heart filled with His love. Your dedication to spreading the message of Christ is a testament to His grace and the transformational power of His love.

      Your comment references the importance of obedience to God's commandments as an expression of love for Him. It aligns with John 14:21 (New International Version), which states, "Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me."
      While obedience is significant, it's essential to remember that believers are not sinless but should strive for a life of holiness. In 1 John 1:8 (New International Version), it says, "If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us." However, through God's grace and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, believers can pursue a life of obedience and holiness, knowing that God's love and forgiveness are available when they fall short.

      12If anyone builds on this foundation ( Believing/ Trusting in Jesus) using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, 13their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person's work. 14If what has been built survives, the builder will RECEIVE a REWARD. 15If it is BURNED UP, the builder will suffer loss but yet WILL BE SAVED-even though only as one ESCAPING through the flames
      Def gift, a thing given WILLINGLY to someone WITHOUT payment; a present. Romans 4:4-5 4 Now to the one who works, wages are not credited as a gift but as an obligation. 5 However, to the one who does not work but trusts God who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness
      5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; 6 Which he shed on us abundantly [1] through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
      “Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might WORK the WORKS of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that YOU BELIEVE on HIM whom he hath sent.” 1 John 3:23 And this is HIS ( FATHER'S) COMMANDMENT: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.

      Hello,
      It's important to remember that we are all imperfect and have made mistakes in our lives. The beauty of Christianity is the understanding of God's boundless love and mercy. When we genuinely repent and seek forgiveness, God is always ready to extend His mercy and forgiveness to us.
      In Psalm 51:1-2, it says, "Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions. Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin."
      So, turn to God with a contrite heart, confess your sins, and seek His forgiveness. He is always there to offer mercy and grace to those who seek Him. Remember, you are never too far gone for God's forgiveness, and He loves you deeply.
      May you find peace and healing in God's forgiveness, and may your faith continue to grow.

      The Bible teaches to be saved IMMEDIATELY, PERMANENTLY and ETERNALLY the only requirement is to BELIEVE The Gospel (that the Eternally Existing Son of God died for all your sins according to the Scriptures, was buried and rose again on the 3rd Day according to the Scriptures for your justification) (1st Corinthians 15:1-4, Romans 4:25)
      But arguably the most of the institutional church teach a 3 step plan to be saved including 1. Repenting of all your sins which he taught was a change of behavior. 2. Believing in Jesus. 3. Committing one's life to follow and obey Jesus (Lordship Salvation)
      Plain and simple.
      The Broad Road that leadeth to destruction Jesus spoke of in Matthew 7:21-23 is the man centered law/works based gospel and all who believe/teach it which happens to be the overwhelming vast majority of Christianity and ALL other religions.

    Being prodigal son of God is not easy....😢😢😢

    • @PathsofUnderstanding
      @PathsofUnderstanding  10 місяців тому +4

      I understand that being a prodigal son or daughter of God can be challenging and emotionally difficult at times. The story of the prodigal son is a powerful parable in the Bible that teaches us about God's love, grace, and forgiveness. Let's respond with biblical support and a focus on the concept of God's grace.
      In the parable of the prodigal son found in Luke 15:11-32, Jesus tells the story of a wayward son who squanders his inheritance and eventually returns to his loving father. Despite the son's mistakes and disobedience, the father welcomes him back with open arms, demonstrating God's boundless grace and forgiveness.
      It's essential to remember that as children of God, we may make mistakes and experience periods of waywardness. However, God's grace is always available to us. In 1 John 1:9, it says, 'If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.' This verse reminds us that God is eager to forgive and restore us when we turn to Him with a repentant heart.
      Being a prodigal son or daughter means acknowledging our shortcomings, seeking God's forgiveness, and returning to Him. In doing so, we experience His love and grace in a profound way. Remember the words of Psalm 103:12, 'As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us.' God's grace is greater than any mistake, and He longs for us to return to Him and experience His unconditional love.
      It's natural to face challenges on our spiritual journey, but rest assured that God's grace is sufficient, and He is always ready to welcome us back with love and forgiveness.

      I'll tell you what Jesus meant. Anyone who is a Christian and they are to busy to spend time with the Lord they have no fellowship with him, when they stand before God He will say to them I never knew you. You can know about someone but you cant know them unless you spend time with them. Its like what i use to hear about a man and a women dating. Someone said you dont know them until you live with them. And how true that is. When you spend much time with someone you get to know them times you will even know what they are going to do before they even do it. So is it with God you have to spend time with Him in order to know Him. The problem with most Christians is SELF is their god. Its true. You will spend time pleasing self but not God. You will give self anything it wants if you can afford it but you wont give a Christian brother or sister what they need to help them out. Self is your god. You will go see a sinner friend but you wont go visit a Christian who needs you. He said, they honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. God said my people have forgotten me days without number.

    (Sorry for the VERY long "comment". But I believe it NEEDS to be espoused)
    Kind Sir...IF you were to ask 10,000 pastors. all over the world; you would probably get untold different "beliefs". And that happens, all over reading Bibles. Because Jesus (and other writers) used many "Examples, Parables and Allegories", etc!
    And sadly, most do not know, they are NOT literals! Especially "Allegories". That is Sad, but OH so true!. And the worse is: when a Pastor tries to teach us what it meant. Where the Pastor or/or the listener, is not understanding themeselves! And this, is one of the reasons; why there are so many different "Denominations"; all over the world! Sad, but OH so True!
    Now, I found a way to get the Truth. But it took me 75 yrs of my 92 Yrs old age to get it. So I was urged, to Pray to Jesus deeply; and ask Him for "Wisdom, Understanding and the Truths". Because He is the ONLY being; who is "Inerrant and Infallible"!
    Try it! For it worked for me. And my last 16 yrs; has been more Joyful and Happy, in my life. Praise Jesus' Holy Name! So I end me case...
    ...In any case Brethren, Please Pray OFTEN and Praise Jesus OFTEN; for He is the ONLY true "God Almighty"; there will ever have been. And may Jesus bless you and yours always. AMEN!

    • @PathsofUnderstanding
      @PathsofUnderstanding  7 місяців тому +2

      Don’t apologize for the long "comment". Your words are deeply meaningful and carry a truth that many need to hear. It is true that there is a diversity of interpretations of Scripture among pastors and believers, and this can lead to a multitude of denominations and beliefs.
      It is important to recognize that many of the teachings of the Bible are communicated through parables, allegories, and examples, and not everything should be interpreted literally. Unfortunately, this understanding is often lost, leading to misinterpretations and divisions within the body of Christ.
      Seeking wisdom, understanding, and truths through prayer to Jesus is a wise and powerful approach. He is the only truly infallible and inerrant, and we can trust Him to guide us in all truth.
      It is inspiring to hear how your journey of faith was transformed by the search for wisdom in Jesus. May your story inspire others to seek a deeper relationship with the Lord and to find true joy and happiness in His presence.
      May we all unite in prayer and praise to Jesus, recognizing Him as the one Almighty God, and may He bless and keep us in all our ways. Amen! 🙏

      It's essential for all of us to approach our faith with reverence and a humble heart, acknowledging the greatness and holiness of God. This 'Godly Fear' leads us to seek His guidance, obey His commandments, and live a life that aligns with His will.
      In 2 Timothy 1:7 (NIV), we are reminded that 'For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love, and self-discipline.' This power and self-discipline come from a deep reverence for God and His righteous standards.

  • @maz3563
    @maz3563 10 місяців тому +2

    Since I questioned in my comment below about the brother’s biblical conclusions, it’s only fair to explain what the Bible says about entering the Kingdom.
    It’s UNFORTUNATE that practically every pastor, teacher, and preacher that I ever heard, fails to understand that salvation is ONLY the DOOR, that saves you from His Wrath on the final judgment and that the dirty little secret in Christianity is that BOTH, church leaders, pastors, teachers, and preachers as well as parishioners are totally ignorant that salvation alone, DOES NOT give every Christian the right to enter the kingdom nor a rapture ticket.
    Sorry to break this news to everyone, but the Word just doesn’t say that.
    Why? Let our God tell us:
    “But the one who endures to the end is the ONE who will be saved” (Matt. 24:13).
    Just WHAT is He talking about here, saved from what? Well, read verses 6 through 12… He’s CLEARLY DESCRIBING the Tribulation!
    That MEANS that CONTRARY to the LIE that's being preached and propagated in "Christian" churches that all Christians are going to be raptured. This is NOT true!
    "For MANY are called (ALL who are saved), but FEW are chosen (ONLY those who DO His will)" (Matt. 22:14).
    You see, our Lord asked us to MAKE DISCIPLES, not religious people who ASSENT, intellectually, ABOUT who Jesus IS, and WHAT He did on the cross, but DO NOT KNOW Him, PERSONALLY (He warned us about this a lot).
    The vast majority of Christians have been misinformed, and misled, by the organized religious establishment.
    REMEMBER, Satan is the god of this world, and he controls and INFLUENCES ALL of earth's governments and institutions and RELIGIONS ARE part of those institutions, period, end of story.
    So, HOW do we get to KNOW Him?
    Well, we MUST know His Word to know about His feelings, thoughts, and will, about what He expects FROM us, and what we can expect from Him, THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF KNOWING SOMEONE we love, respect, and cherish.
    Why is that? So that we don't end up in the same group that Hosea 4:6 and Matt. 24:13 above is warning against:
    "My people are destroyed for LACK of knowledge [My Law, where I REVEAL My will]. Since YOU have rejected knowledge (knowing His Word, people), I also will reject YOU from BEING My PRIEST. Since you have forgotten the Law of your God (that's our Bible brothers and sisters), I also WILL forget your children."
    This is confirmed in 1 Peter 2:9:
    "But you are A CHOSEN people, A royal PRIESTHOOD, a holy nation, A PEOPLE FOR GOD’S OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light."
    Here's more proof FROM Him, not me:
    "ENTER (He is NOT going to push you, it's something YOU have to do) through the NARROW gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is narrow and the way is constricted that leads to life, and there are FEW WHO FIND it" (Matt. 7:13-14; also, Luke 13:24).
    Or, what about:
    "NOT EVERYONE who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the ONE who DOES the WILL of My Father who is in heaven WILL enter. MANY will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles? And then I will declare to them, ‘I NEVER KNEW you; LEAVE ME, YOU WHO PRACTICE LAWLESSNESS' (that is, THOSE who DID NOT do His will)" (Matt. 7:22-23).
    I have DOZENS of more scriptures to prove that this is the truth, BUT the sheep, like the Jews under the Sadducees and Pharisees, are so steeped in TRADITIONAL ways of "worshipping" a God that VERY few Christians seem to think they know, while their bible gather dust in their homes but don't mind listening worn out sermons, that as good as they may be, DOES NOT teach you to REALLY KNOW Him through His Word BY His Spirit.
    That's what JOHN 14:26; 16:13;
    IS all about. By doing this, YOU are FULFILLING Isaiah 54:13 and John 6:45. THAT'S how you PERSONALLY, get to know Him for REAL.
    What about entering His Kingdom?
    The Old Testament teaches this symbolically when you analyze HOW our God organized the 12 tribes AROUND His Home (the Tabernacle) that symbolized the one in heaven.
    Out of 12 tribes He chose ONLY ONE tribe to be AROUND Him, the Levites, and MADE them PRIESTS with Him becoming their INHERITANCE.
    The other 11 tribes were NOT to come not even NEAR the tabernacle under the penalty of death.
    In the New Testament, WE get to CHOOSE Him to be OUR INHERITANCE.
    This is what He is talking about in 1 Cor. 6:9, and in Gal. 5:21 that read virtually the SAME:
    "... envy, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who PRACTICE such things WILL NOT INHERIT the kingdom of God" (that is LIVING FOREVER in His Presence brothers and sisters).
    I can prove this truth to you in passages found in Revelation chapter 22.
    Remember that this chapter is describing events AFTER ALL seven seals, plagues, and bowls were spent, and AFTER the 1000-year millennia ended, the White Throne Judgment, the devil cast out into the Lake of Fire, etc. etc. Let's start with verse 12:
    "Behold, I am coming quickly, and My REWARD is with Me, to reward EACH one as HIS WORK deserves."
    Tell me, can we WORK for our salvation, or is a reward?
    Of course not! Let's now read verse 14:
    "Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they will have the RIGHT (something that is EARNED people) to the tree of life, and may ENTER the city by the gates" (of His Kingdom in the New Jerusalem people).
    Let's continue in verse 15:
    "OUTSIDE (of the Kingdom gates of the New Jerusalem) are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral persons, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and PRACTICES lying"
    (Those who DID NOT take SERIOUSLY 1 Cor. 6:9, and in Gal. 5:21).
    You see, salvation is GRANTED to anyone who SIMPLY calls on His Name because he or she believes in Him as Savior as CONFIRMED in Joel 2:32 and Acts 2:21, and Romans 10:13, which then just opens up a Door (Christ) that delivers him or her, OUT of God's Wrath, but does NOT give them the RIGHT and the REWARD to the Tree of Life, or to enter the New Jerusalem, can we now see that clearly?
    So, what about Christ’s Judgment Seat? Let Him explain it as well…
    "Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, each one’s work WILL become evident; for the day (that is, Christ believer's Judgment Day) will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each one’s work. If anyone's work which he has built on it remains, he WILL receive a REWARD (does that sound familiar?) If anyone’s work is burned up, he will SUFFER LOSS; but he himself WILL BE SAVED, yet only so as through fire" (1 Cor. 3:12-15).
    And,
    "Behold, your salvation is coming; Behold His reward is with Him, and His compensation before Him" (Isaiah 62:11).
    So, as you can see, Christ will ONLY judge your works, as a servant, on His behalf.
    it's ALL about REWARDS brothers and sisters, and NOT punishment of ANY kind BECAUSE:
    "If we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He CANNOT deny Himself" (2 Tim. 2:13).
    NEVERTHELESS, if you are happy as a sow on her mire, to just REMAIN as an INFANT in Christ (1 Cor. 3:1-2; Heb. 5:13), by living a worldly life, and REFUSING knowledge of His Word by only listening to MEN'S opinions week after week, then by all means, have at it, knock yourself out, since YOU are the only one to have the free will to do so, BUT when you SUFFER loss on that day, be AWARE that YOU WILL experience:
    "Then the King said to the servants, ‘Tie his hands and feet, and throw him into the outer darkness (OUT of His Presence, and NOT hell, as so many uninformed religious men have taught you); there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth in that place" (Matt. 2213; Luke 13:28).
    Take this to heart BECAUSE I am NOT making this up. EVERYTHING that I have said here is backed up by His Words, and taking it seriously, WILL make the difference between being raptured OR, go through the tribulation and be ENDANGERED to being DECEIVED by the antichrist's miracles and wonder's that God warn us about in 2 Thess 2:7-12:
    "He (the Holy Spirit in us) who now restrains (the coming of the antichrist) will do so until He is removed (by the rapture). THEN that lawless one (the antichrist) WILL be revealed, whom the Lord will eliminate with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming (AFTER the rapture); that is, the one (the antichrist) whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with ALL power and FALSE signs and wonders, and with ALL the deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they did not accept the love of the truth so as to be saved. For this reason, God WILL send upon THEM a deluding influence (the real chance of taking the mark of the beast) so that they WILL believe what IS false, in order that they all may be judged who did not BELIEVE the truth."
    Read this carefully and THINK, does God NEED to send this influence to those who are ALREADY LOST, OR is it for those Christians in name only, that were left behind and only have ONE last chance to be saved?
    I'll let you answer the question for yourself. God speed.
    "With people is impossible, but with God all things are possible” (Matt. 19:26).

      Read this twice people.....there are churches out there with their candlestick already removed maybe they were true in the past and died, learn the Gospel and get right with your Lord, your loyalty is to God and Christ in whom He dwells not to a denomination, building or group of people, the "church" is the body of Christ, not a sect or click, or a building or a name, if your group doesn't follow His word, CALL THEM OUT, DON'T BE AFRAID, SAVE YOUR BRETHEREN, IF THEY WILL NOT BE CONVINCED, MOVE ON, do HIS will, not your own and not your church leaders, study with the Spirit and know what you believe, you will face testing. Pass the test. Run your race. Know God. YOU will be judged individually, based on your potential and faith do you really trust another human with your fate, Jesus is the only trustworthy being to ever inhabit a human body. Yes it is true that you don't earn salvation by works, but by the grace of God, but if you truly love Him you will keep His commandments and only those who love Him will abide with Him.

      Yes, thanks for this.
      Faith is an inward expression of the heart, not an outward expression in deed. OP is double talking in this video and adding works to the gospel! Beware of this channel because they’re laying an even bigger burden on believers than the Pharisees did. Jesus upped the ante on the law, remember! NO ONE can obey the law to get salvation. SALVATION IS A GIFT NOT A REWARD! Jesus knows those who have faith in Him, ALONE. Obedience has NOTHING to do with salvation. No sin can take us away from him.
      Romans 4:5 - But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
      John 6:47 - Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me HATH everlasting life.
      Believing in Christ instantaneously seals the believer for eternity. Do good works for fellowship with the Lord, but don’t work for your salvation like this channel is propagating.
      Matthew 7:15-20 - Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
      The fruits that Jesus is referring to is the MESSAGE that they are preaching, NOT WORKS or fruits of the spirit. What do false prophets do? They teach a false gospel! This channel is promoting others to fruit inspect other believers like self righteous hypocrites. This channel is failing to rightly divide the word of truth.
      II Corinthians 11:13-15 - For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
      14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
      15 Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
      These ministers of righteousness are those that are WORKING for their salvation. They are those that say “I’m holier than thou”, JUST LIKE THE PHARISEES. They are doing WONDERFUL WORKS, just like those in Matthew 7. They are placing faith in themselves over what Jesus did. Please, DO NOT look to your works or your obedience as proof you are saved, LOOK TO THE CROSS.
      IT’S NOT ABOUT US
      IT’S ABOUT JESUS
      1 John 5:13 - These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may KNOW that ye HAVE eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.
      If you were to die today, are you 100% certain you are going to heaven? Only by placing your FAITH in Christ’s work on the cross, can give you that assurance. Not your lifestyle or obedience to His commandments. Please mark and avoid this channel unless they repent from their false teaching

I would not consider acting on such thoughts, I would never hurt my wife that way, but I was still guilty in my mind and heart of such daydreams, I have caught myself lusting when I let my guard down and I am facing certain interactions in daily life.

      Thank you for sharing your heartfelt confession and prayer. Your words reflect a humble and contrite heart seeking forgiveness and God's will in your life.
      In 1 John 1:9, the Bible assures us, 'If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.' Your confession is a powerful step toward receiving God's forgiveness and experiencing His grace.
      Your prayer, invoking the name of Jesus and surrendering to God's will, aligns with the teachings of the Bible. In Matthew 6:10, Jesus taught us to pray, 'Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.' It's a beautiful expression of surrendering your desires and seeking God's plan for your life.
      Remember that God's grace is abundant and His forgiveness is limitless. In Ephesians 2:8-9, it's emphasized that salvation is 'by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.' Your sincere confession and prayer are a testament to your faith in God's grace and mercy.
      May you continue to seek His will, grow in His grace, and experience the transformative power of His love. You are in our prayers, and may God's peace and forgiveness be with you always. Amen!

      Amen! It's truly powerful to know that God knows each one of us by name and that we can have a personal relationship with Him. Let's respond with biblical support and emphasize the significance of God's intimate knowledge of us.
      In the Bible, there are several passages that highlight God's knowledge and personal relationship with His children. One of the most comforting verses in this regard is found in Isaiah 43:1, where God declares, "But now thus says the Lord, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: 'Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine.'"
      This verse reminds us that God not only knows our names but has also called us by name and considers us His own. Our relationship with Him is deeply personal and precious.
      Additionally, Psalm 139:1-4 says, "O Lord, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O Lord, you know it altogether."
      These verses affirm that God's knowledge of us goes beyond our external actions; He knows our thoughts, our hearts, and our deepest desires.
      It's a wonderful and comforting truth that God not only knows us but desires a personal relationship with each one of us. We can take comfort in the fact that we are known and loved by our Heavenly Father, and through Jesus Christ, we can have a close and intimate connection with Him.

      I'll tell you what Jesus meant. Anyone who is a Christian and they are to busy to spend time with the Lord they have no fellowship with him, when they stand before God He will say to them I never knew you. You can know about someone but you cant know them unless you spend time with them. Its like what i use to hear about a man and a women dating. Someone said you dont know them until you live with them. And how true that is. When you spend much time with someone you get to know them times you will even know what they are going to do before they even do it. So is it with God you have to spend time with Him in order to know Him. The problem with most Christians is SELF is their god. Its true. You will spend time pleasing self but not God. You will give self anything it wants if you can afford it but you wont give a Christian brother or sister what they need to help them out. Self is your god. You will go see a sinner friend but you wont go visit a Christian who needs you. He said, they honour me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

      I’m sorry to hear you’re feeling lonely and going through a difficult time. Loneliness can be a challenging experience, but you are not alone in seeking comfort and strength from the Lord. Let me offer you some biblical guidance and encouragement:
      First, remember that God is always with you, even in your moments of solitude. In Hebrews 13:5, it is written, 'Keep your life free from the love of money, and be content with what you have, for he said, 'I will never leave you or forsake you. ''
      In times of trouble, prayer is a powerful way to seek God’s presence and find comfort. Philippians 4:6-7 encourages us: 'Do not be anxious for anything, but in everything, for prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, that your requests be known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.'
      Also, consider joining a local church or community of believers where you can find fellowship, support, and fellowship opportunities. Hebrews 10:24-25 reminds us, 'And let us consider how to stir each other up to love and good works, not neglecting meeting, as is the habit of some, but encouraging each other, and even more so when you see the Day approaching.'
      It is also important to reach friends and loved ones and share your feelings with them. Galatians 6:2 encourages us to 'carry each other’s burdens, and thus fulfill the law of Christ.'
      Finally, I want to emphasize the grace of God. Even in times of loneliness and despair, His grace suffices. 2 Corinthians 12:9 assures us, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is perfected in weakness.'
      I will pray for you, asking the Lord to give you comfort, peace and strength to overcome loneliness. Remember that you are loved and valued by both God and those around you. You are not alone in your journey, and there is hope for brighter days ahead.

      It's understandable to feel remorse when we knowingly engage in behavior that goes against our values or beliefs. Recognizing our own weaknesses and the choices we make can be a difficult but essential step in the process of repentance and seeking forgiveness.
      Remember that God's love and grace are always available to those who genuinely seek them. It's important to continue seeking God's guidance and strength to resist temptation and make better choices. The desire to change and grow spiritually is a positive step, and with faith and determination, you can overcome sin and find peace in your relationship with God. Keep praying and seeking His help in your journey towards spiritual growth and transformation.
