James 4:4 (KJV) Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever
therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
The world is where; Satan landed, When he was thrown out of Heaven.
Rev. 12:12 (KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth
and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath
but a short time.
Luke 10:18 (KJV) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
Satan is Angry: Satan is out for revenge. He does not have access any more to God. Satan torments Gods people. Satan Speaks
with his messenger: He speaks to us in the flesh.
The Apostle Paul Stated that he prayed three times for God to remove the Messenger of
Satan. God would not remove it for the reason that Paul would be like us, exalted above measure.
Why do we think it strange today to see a select few who try to control the work in our
churches? Think of it now: If you were Satan and wanted to do the most damage to Gods work: Where would you get or what position
would you seek for? The Highest position, or seat, that you could ascend into. Satan from the word go, has had this for his
ultimate goal.
Isaiah 14:13-14 (KJV) For thou, (Satan), hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt
my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
[14] I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
When he has complete control of one of God's creation and has come into that soul like
he took control of Judas, He wants to ascend to a position to where he can have the preeminence
among those and that way he can control the Show. Thereby defiling many.
Ezekiel 7:22 (KJV) My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the robbers
shall enter into it, and defile it.
How it then that he makes himself is look so righteous and is able to deceive so many
who believe that they are walking with the Lord:
2 Cor. 11:14 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
The verse states: “Is transformed into an Angel of Light” That means that
Satan has already transformed himself, How do we know and prove this strong statement?. Where did he do this?.
July 9th. 2002
Satan has been adorned with all that God could possibly adorn any with. He had occupied
this realm where this creation took place and was there beholding everything that God was doing to place into existence and
had as I said occupied this world in the Angelic form. He had access to all of God’s wisdom and Glory. What was he doing
while this was going on. He was setting up an institution. No one knows how long he had to do this, as time in his realm did
not exist. The movie called: The Land before Time, Is about as close to describing the actual circumstances that existed then.
When Adam was placed into the Garden, or Paradise, as we know, he was not governed by time. he could have existed forever
and would not have gotten old as we do today. Scientists now say that the body of mankind is built to live forever. Gods intended
for man to live in health and an environment of perfection. He did not intend for man to suffer and have to labor by the sweat
of the brow. Look for a moment at this that is going on with God. The Angles desire to look into this the Bible tells us;
1 Peter 1:12 (KJV) Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they
did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost
sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
You see; The Angles didn’t and don’t have what we have today. Adam had in
essence become like God and had with the Voice of God the wisdom of that of God himself. That is why God reached into the
dust and made man. This earth and everything holds the true essence of what God is all about. In this earth is placed the
very existence of God himself. It was made by him and for him and for his pleasure. God did not leave anything out. Even the
Birds, Fish and the creatures exist by what God placed into the earth. God proved that he can take some dry ground and breath
upon it and it will live. God can take a dry sinner that looks hopeless today and breath into him and he can live and show
forth the Glory of God. This is why Satan wanted to be like God. He wanted to create his own domain and have an existence
by choice. He has accomplished that to a certain extent. He has his ministers that choose to give him the Glory and rob God
the real and only God of the honor that belongs to God. Yes he had an intuition going where he gave degrees to those Angles
who enrolled in the College. He was the Professor, the teacher and the founder. He then wanted to enroll Adam and Eve into
his college. Like today he still wants to shape his ministers into ministers of righteousness. A professor told his class
that if they came to that college and think that that college could make a preacher out of them; they would leave the college
a bigger fool than when they came there. Satan wanted Adam and Eve to go to the school of his and he would make them like
God. Too many today have gone to the college of Satan and have been shaped into what is called: “the enemy’s of
the cross”.
At what time or where did he do this?. He did this in the Garden of Eden. He transformed
himself into the flesh there in Adam and Eve in the Garden. Cain was the first evidence of Satan coming in the Flesh. He took
on the nature of sinful flesh and wanted to offer to God the offering that, not pleasing to God, but wanted to offer what
he wanted too. When Able who was a The righteous seed; confronted him about this and tried to reason with his brother, Cain
did not want to reason and went and Killed him. This is what Satan is; a murder from the beginning.
John 8:44 (KJV) Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from
the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he
speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Satan works are these:
1 John 3:8 (KJV) He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this
purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
1 John 2:16 (KJV) For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of
the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Galatians 5:19 (KJV) Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery,
fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
2 Cor. 12:7 (KJV) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there
was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
Christ has abolished those commandants and ordnances.
Man wants to put them on you. Why would they want to do such a thing? They the Children
of Disobedience are spiritless and want to affect you for their own reasons.
Galatians 4:17 (KJV) They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude
you, that ye might affect them.
They would Exclude you from walking in the Holy Ghost. They have rejected the Holy Ghost
and want you to be like them, that way they can hold preeminence over you. Satan can do just what he started out to do, be
like God. But he can and will never be like God.
Enmity was placed there on man to tutor him to the Cross and man put a vale between man
and God. Man only let Those come in; upon their approval. Today the hold the threat of ex-communication over the heads of
those who do not have their approval.
We are not to call a man father. This does not mean that we can’t call our earthly
father, father. When it comes to Gods people we are not to call anyone father except God.
Satan still has used the flesh and commandants with ordnances to hold dominion over many
and there needs to be a setting free of his Yoke. Jesus said :
Matthew 11:29-30 (KJV) Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly
in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
[30] For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
That is why I am writing this. I can see today so much bondage among the people and there
needs to be deliverance brought to free those from bondage.
The Holy Ghost breaks this Bondage and sets men and women free to Worship God in the
Spirit.
Isaiah 61:1 (KJV) The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed
me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives,
and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
Luke 4:18 (KJV) The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach
the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of
sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
Ephes. 2:15-16 (KJV) Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments
contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
[16] And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain
the enmity thereby:
Genesis 3:15 (KJV) And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy
seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
No how does God keep the plan in effect after he drove out man from the Garden, Remember
the Spirit moved upon the face of the deep. His Spirit goeth through the earth and is everywhere. Here we have Satan trapped
in the Flesh and we have the Spirit also working in the Flesh and a war is now eminent. Death is pronounced upon mankind and
a curse is upon the earth and condemnation now exists for all flesh. The last enemy to be destroyed is death. Satan the cause
of death is in essence has built his own Gallows like that of Haman in the book of Ester.
Esther 5:14 (KJV) Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends unto him, Let a gallows
be made of fifty cubits high, and to morrow speak thou unto the king that Mordecai may be hanged thereon: then go thou in
merrily with the king unto the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made.
Esther 6:4 (KJV) And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman was come into the
outward court of the king's house, to speak unto the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.
Esther 7:9-10 (KJV) And Harbonah, one of the chamberlains, said before the king, Behold
also, the gallows fifty cubits high, which Haman had made for Mordecai, who had spoken good for the king, standeth in the
house of Haman. Then the king said, Hang him thereon.
[10] So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then was
the king's wrath pacified.
Esther 8:7 (KJV) Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the
Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon
the Jews.
Esther 9:13 (KJV) Then said Esther, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews
which are in Shushan to do to morrow also according unto this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows.
Esther 9:25 (KJV) But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that
his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be
hanged on the gallows.
God now has him sealed to his doom. So Satan believes that he has robbed God of everything
and began to set up his kingdom in the earth. Jesus said: The kingdom of God suffered violence up until John the Baptist,
The violent take it by force. Satan is an Angle of Light, meaning that he was the most beautiful Angle that God had created
and he in his subtlety took what God adorned him with and set out to overthrow the God that had created him. After all he
had been given all, Except one thing, He could never, as an Angle be in the form like unto that that Jesus had and this is
what he wanted most of all. The Angles can transform themselves into the flesh as disciples and can make those who are not
led by Gods Spirit believe that he is the real genuine power.
2 Cor. 11:14 (KJV) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
Now at the Cross where he thought that he would get rid of God altogether by killing
Jesus and this would rid God of any authority in this world, He then in his Kingdom would be the God of this world and believed
that his Kingdom would be in existence forever. God and the Host of God’s Angles waged war with Satan and His Angles
and there was one of the fiercest battles fought at that time.
Rev. 12:7 (KJV) And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the
dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
Satan could not let Christ be raised from the dead and he fought to keep this from happening.
As always he lost and was Kicked out of Heave never to have access to God’s paradise and was cast down to the earth;
Rev. ch. 12 tell all about the results of that battle.
Rev. 12:12 (KJV) Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the
inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he
hath but a short time.
Satan is angry and is out to get even with God and is taking his revenge out on the followers
of Christ.
Daniel 7:21 (KJV) I beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed
against them;
Rev. 12:13 (KJV) And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted
the woman which brought forth the man child.
He persecuted Christ and the Early Church Even unto Death:
Matthew 26:38 (KJV) Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto
death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.
Luke 21:16 (KJV) And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks,
and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
Rev. 2:10 (KJV) Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil
shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death,
and I will give thee a crown of life.
But thanks to God he did not leave us comfortless. He sent to those in the upper room
the Holy Ghost and gave us access to the Throne and we can sit down with Jesus and be where Satan will never be again.
He doesn’t have any access through the Holy Ghost and we can once again hear the
Voice of God in the cool of the day.
His destination is described in the book of Revelation:
Rev. 20:2 (KJV) And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil,
and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
Satan knows that he has only a short time until this takes place and he in his rage,
is doing all he can to keep those Whom God wants to exist in, from entering into the fellowship with God. This is why those
who resist the Holy Ghost go about to establish their own ways. Satan has blinded the minds of those and there needs to be
a revelation of God’s Word, and to have God to open their understanding as to what Satan’s plan is This is why
I am writing this book. I have for so many years, knowing the Lord as my Savior, desired to know more about God’s Word.
The word of God has been changed by man and has been diluted down to the point that anything is acceptable. It is ok to be
and believe whatever you want. The bible says: Let every man be a liar and God the truth.
Romans 3:4 (KJV) God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written,
That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
I can now see what God meant by this statement.
To sum it up is to say; God wants to walk and talk with us as he did in the Garden of
Eden. The only way that we can do this is to Pray in the Spirit and let the Voice of God That is God, come to us and have
that fellowship that we need. and most of all,
God wants, He is like us; We like the fellowship that we have with our children when
our children and we as parents are in the same agreement with each other. It then becomes a real paradise environment. Satan
wants to destroy that environment and keep us in an uproar and divide us. Making us miserable; like he is miserable, He; Satan
did not get his way on everything; and, like a child, he started to throw his tantrums. Just because he doesn’t get
his way; He gets mad and wants to make everyone miserable. He likes to be in authority. He has to be seen; and heard. He requires
a lot of attention.
Cain was his first seed. He controlled Cain. He does like control. He will control whomsoever
he can. He working in Cain, wanted to do what he thought was right, He offered up that of material offerings, like
the Pharisee's. They fasted and pays his tithes and he does this to gain authority among the church. He sits in the seat of
God. The seat of God is the Heart of each one of us. God does not dwell in temples made with hands. Everyone is looking to
see what will happen over the sea; In Jerusalem. Many think that their hope is in the Carnal Jerusalem. But, I am here to
tell you, that the Jerusalem from above is the hope of all of us The Heart of man is the Temple, and Satan is setting
himself in the hearts of many, and defiling the Temple of God everyday all over the world.
What we need is to let our laughter turn to tears and weep and cry out to God for a Move
of the Spirit and look unto the Author and Finisher of our Faith, that is, Jesus Christ. Jesus said on the Cross; “It
Is Finished”. He finished it for us and for Satan and Sat down on the right hand of Majesty. He poured out of his Spirit
to give us the Power to overcome. What we need today is; as I said earlier; Is a Move of The Holy Ghost among the Churches.
Then will we see the bondage broken; and the yoke, that Satan has placed on Gods people, will be broken. Praise be to
God.
Man was made in the likeness of God. Was that likeness like his form or was that of his
nature?. There is a lot of answers that man has not at his disposal except that the spirit reveal it to him.
At this time I feel the need to write down some of the things that has been
given to me in a dream and a vision: The date of this vision and dream is: Monday June 17, 2002. This is the vision that I
saw upon my bed. I saw the church of God at Mt. Pleasant located on Shepherdsville Road in Tennessee near Granville Tennessee;
I Walked into the Church Building and I asked someone there: Am I welcome? The person said that I was Welcome and I proceeded
or went into the building and sat down on the left side in the rear of the church and there was some more people there sitting
with me and there wasn’t very many that sat there with me, as there were not many seats there to set in, I looked and
saw that most of the church seats had been removed from the building. In the place of the seats there was a large table in
the shape of an oval shape and it was very large and It had chars around it. These chairs were like the chairs of a dining
room table that one would have at a table at or in a residence. I looked and saw several people sitting down at the table
and more came in and sat down at the table. The people that was sitting at the table didn’t seem to notice me and the
ones that sat beside. I looked for my son Wade and I saw him at the table with a blue shirt on it seem to have stripes running
downward. There was a lot of papers on the table and there was no food of any kind on the table. The people at the table was
shuffling through the papers as if they were so busy that they didn’t notice anyone else in the building. Wade did not
notice that I was there and neither did the others. At that time Brother Payne walked in and came over to me and said: I thought
that you would have least come to the Revival and then went on up with the rest of the people. He did not appear to be very
Happy as a man with a lot of sorrows. Then the vision was ended.
I have had visions before this and one was that I Saw Brother Payne and the
number six and the number nine.
There was a man with Dark hair and he had a suit on and had stripes running
downward on his suit.
I saw my brother that has recently died and gone to be with the lord and he
was with someone and they had a truck and was carrying the church seats that is in the church at Mt. Pleasant and they were
throwing them into a pile out in the open field and as he was throwing them off the truck he had problem's getting them to
go into the pile, he threw them and then jumped off the truck himself landing on the ground and I thought to myself that;
Willard you can’t do that. you are not able to do that. he had a real nice suit on and it had stripes running downward
also. There was an old car that came up and asked if this was the place that they were going to have church at. He had been
told that the church would be gathering to have church in the field in the opening.
The next vision I saw Tim one of the ones that goes to Mt. Pleasant Church
Of God; He was reaching up high and reaching for something and I saw that it looked like a t-bone steak and as he pulled it
down, I saw the steak turn into a Demon like shape and I told Tim not to take it.
I saw a missile, a very large missile come into a city, the missile was traveling
vertical through the air and Saw it land into the city of Chattanooga Tennessee, There were much smoke rising up into the
air because of the blast. Strangely This is where Wade my son came to the end of his running from the Lord and with deliverance,
he was delivered from sin and found the lord.
There he was in the Jail and someone was there and who knows if it was an
Angle, taught him and had Bible study there among the inmates. Later Wade went to the Mt. Pleasant Church Of God and gave
his life to Christ. At that time I had been building this home and about seven or eight years past had been a pastor
at another state and had resigned and left to travel for a company. running
a crane. after about five years I sold our home in Indiana and bought this land here in Granville Tennessee. I had not told
anyone or had not attended Church anywhere and had not preached any at all. I had let my License with the Church of God of
the Mountain Assembly expire and didn’t and wasn’t interested anymore in attending church. After the Experience
that happened with my son Wade I seem to get fired up again and began to go back to church with him at Mt. Pleasant. I had
asked God to forgive me of the neglect and any sins that I had committed and God began to again as always in the past to move
in my life. At the church I experienced the presence of the Holy Ghost and He the Holy Ghost began to move in my life. There
at that time Satan began to battle me with all the forces that he could muster up. While I was having these visions, I began
to reveal them to the church and at that time I noticed the resistance from The pastor Brother Payne. It got so bad I felt
that he did not want me there no more and things getting worse I decided to leave, as I didn’t want to cause trouble
or be blamed for anything. I guess I had been warned by the spirit as only a few of those from the church has had any dealing
with me and The pastor has not as much called to see it or what is wrong. What more do in need to say to confirm that I am
not wanted. The dream last night confirmed this to me and I felt along with those few that no one Including my son knew that
I Was there. They were too busy taking care of the business at the church to notice the few that has been there all the time.
I saw a Crate and on the crate was Writing and some of it was in red letters
and for a second I was shown what it was, then the letters in red went from my mind and I did not know what it was anymore,
on the same crate was Black writing and it said: “This is professionally Written, It was written on a angle downward
and stood out like it was written by a professional. There was a Grey headed man in the vision and he had Grey hear with a
hairline receding toward the top, he was not bald and had an ample amount of hair.
Jesus ask the question; Whom do men say that I am.
Matthew 16:13-19 (KJV) When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom
do men say that I the Son of man am?
[14] And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others,
Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
He wanted to know, as if he did not know, what others was saying about his identity.
If everyone knew who he was they, the followers of Satan, would have changed the plan for his sacrifice.
1 Cor. 2:8 (KJV) Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it,
they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
The princes of this world was so busy trying to find out where he was coming from that
they didn’t realize that it was God himself standing in their presence. Abraham when he went to sacrifice his only son
was asked by Isaac:
Genesis 22:7-8 (KJV) And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, My father: and
he said, Here am I, my son. And he said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?
[8] And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so
they went both of them together.
God Would be that Lamb that was to take the sins of the world away. Jesus was asking;
“whom do men say that I am”. Then he comes back with another question;
[15] He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
I need to let the world know that the ones that I called has heard the voice of God.
The voice of God that talked to Adam and Eve in the cool of the day. Here we see the voice of God is and has been talking
with mankind down through the ages. Only thing is that most have not been listening to the voice of God. Still today the Holy
Ghost as it was on the day of Pentecost is still there as the voice of God.
God is still talking and revealing to those whom hear the voice and have faith in the
Lord.
[16] And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living
God.
This is why that Jesus called and those like Simon Peter heard the voice, The Spirit
is what peter heard when Jesus said; “follow me”. He is still saying to us today to follow him.
[17] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for
flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
If we hear the voice of God; we are blessed. Blessed with what?
The presence of God in our lives is beyond the comprehension and it brings the comfort
to us that God walks and talks with us just as he did with Adam and Eve in the Garden.
In the spirit we have been made to set down in Heavenly places with Christ;
Ephes. 2:6 (KJV) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:
Now that we sit in Heavenly places; Where does that mean that we have a residence?
John
14:3 (KJV) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there
ye may be also.
Jesus said that it is Expedient that he go away. He stated that if he did not go away, back to the father. that the
comforter would not come.
If Jesus is the word of God and is made flesh, Where is the Holy Ghost? He and the Father was in the Fleshly tabernacle
that was there at that time. What a risk one would say that God took.
Here is Christ the very Word of God, He was the Son of God and had been bestowed upon with all power in Heaven;
Matthew 28:18 (KJV) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
God the Father, God the Holy Ghost and the Son of God was there. What a dispensation
that was. God had dispensed His whole existence into this sin torn world and confronted Satan Face to Face.
No wonder he tried Job the way he did. God knows how to handle Satan and his Devices and if we will only listen
to his voice we too can take him down where he belongs, down under our feet. Christ said the world was his footstool;
Psalm 110:1 (KJV) A Psalm of David.The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine
enemies thy footstool.
Isaiah 66:1 (KJV) Thus saith the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: where is the house
that ye build unto me? and where is the place of my rest?
Matthew 5:35 (KJV) Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the
great King.
Matthew 22:44 (KJV) The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Mark 12:36 (KJV) For David himself said by the Holy Ghost, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine
enemies thy footstool.
Hebrews 10:13 (KJV) From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
This Earth is his foot stool, which is a place to place his feet upon and when Jesus walked on this earth he had
placed his feet upon this earth and Satan had to crawl under the feet of Jesus and bow down and as they cried when he was
crucified; “surly this was the Son of God;
Mark 15:39 (KJV) And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said,
Truly this man was the Son of God.
The earth turned dark and darkness was once again upon the deep;
Genesis 1:2 (KJV) And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep.
And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
When Jesus arose from the dead and appeared unto all those that the bible mentions;
Luke 24:34 (KJV) Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon.
The hope of mankind had now taken on a new era and now that Satan had been defeated, God’s plan of Salvation
now was in full force, and Satan now knowing that his defeat had taken place went forth with his followers and started to
come in like a flood.
Isaiah 59:19 (KJV) So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the
sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.
But thanks to God, God wasn’t through with him yet.
Jesus witnessed to all those and then ascended back to where he came from and was made higher than the angles, He then asked
the Father to send now the Holy Ghost upon his followers and to endued them with the same Power that he had when he
walked among them, They gathered in the upper room and with a great sound of like a mighty Rushing wind the
Holy Ghost came upon the 120 and the transition of the power was transferred to the Church of God.
Simon Peter stood up with great Boldness and proclaimed the word of God; Thousands were saved on that day.
Why do we think that we can overcome the Devil and sit back and not seek those things above, especially the Gift
of the Holy Ghost? No wonder we see lesbians and homosexuals in the pulpit along with child molesters. My God, When
will we wake up and watch with Jesus.
His disciples when they were in carnal following went to sleep and could not watch with Jesus. When he was in the Garden of
Gethsemane, He was about to make the hope of all mankind real, His followers couldn’t stay awake for even one hour.
You ask what is wrong with the church today. We must ask ourselves; are we willing to watch one hour? Do we say
our little petty bedtime prayers and then expect Satan to leave us along and when he comes our way, we cry like the Israelites,
only to go right back to our old habits, and, our procrastination. We find ourselves in the most difficult positions.
God wants to take our Tongue and set it on fire, not with the course of Hell, but with the fire off the Alter of God,
Leviticus 16:12 (KJV) And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord,
and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail:
Christ was the Sweet Incense; Truly we can say that Christ was beaten small as the prophet Isaiah proclaimed:
Isaiah 42:3 (KJV) A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring
forth judgment unto truth.
Isaiah 53:5 (KJV) But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement
of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Hebrews 2:9 (KJV) But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death,
crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
God sent the Holy Ghost down upon his believers and this is the fire from before the Alter of God and took into his
hands full of sweet incense of his followers as they praised him on the day of Pentecost and the Vail, which was his body;
Hebrews 10:20 (KJV) By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through
the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
Our flesh is the Vail. When we walk after the Flesh, we are not pleasing to God. If the spirit is not in us; we are
none of his. Flesh and blood cannot enter in to the kingdom of Heaven.
1 Cor. 15:50 (KJV) Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth
corruption inherit incorruption.
Why then are we so involved in the service of carnality? Flesh and blood does not reveal this message to me and flesh and
blood will not open your mind to the message that God wants to give to you. That is why Jesus said ;
John 4:24 (KJV) God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
When the woman of Samaria was talking to Jesus; she heard him proclaim;
John 4:21 (KJV) Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain,
nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
John 4:23 (KJV) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall
worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
God is looking for Christians to walk and worship in the Spirit.
