I am amazed at how many folks acknowledge the existence of the supernatural realm, BUT they are QUICK to look away from the idea of a superior, supernatural God.  They are THREE TIMES QUICKER to point at the UFO's, ghosts, psychics, and the zodiac sciences. Could it be that they are afraid that they may be accountable to a superior being?

Let's explore, shall we?

I'm reminded that their are many that have NO CLUE of what God; our father through Christ, is all about. They have never felt the supernatural embrace or connection; the spirit side of them is asleep; numb to this wonderful, supernatural relationship.  Closed minded they strive to illustrate we "just happened".

Fellow believer; before we get too deep, this is a reminder to do what Jesus has commanded! All of us; including me, must think on the cutting edge to harvest souls for Christ so that he can bring them into the kingdom with his advocacy to the Father, God.

Matthew 9

37.) Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.

38.) Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field."

On occasion we can see, hear, and feel this intriguing supernatural realm. Some folks seem to be more sensitive than others. Since it seems like supernatural occurrence and phenomenon is more frequent these days I will start with the bad guys so you can see what's most visible and prevalent in these times.

The Evil One and his agents: 

They have the ability to influence the EARTH, that's ALL that we lay our eyes on...including US and what is (apparently) visible, but we can't put our hands on. Examples, UFO's, Ghosts, disembodied voices, and feelings that one is not alone.  Evil also is able to influence our thoughts IF we entertain the occult arts; horoscopes, death date guessing data bases, palm readers, fortune tellers, even right down to those silly fortune cookies.  EVIL will stop at nothing to get us off the path of thinking right. If it takes a few UFO's, the psychic hotlines, and Oprah Winfrey to get us off the path of thinking right, evil forces will do it! They are clever in design and very convincing. They may not appear evil, but when you boil the hodgepodge down the sludge that remains is evil. You see it all around you.... murder, rape, torture, and worse...much worse.  What was considered as soft porn in 1985 is now pg13.  Hollywood smugly smiles as it pumps its vomit into the living rooms of America.  We are accepting the immoral teachings of the world by allowing our children to view this garbage without guidance or censorship.  I have canceled the television cable until the fall, simply because I have no use for television.  In the fall football returns, and so does the cable box.

Obadiah 1:3

The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rocks and make your home on the heights, you who say to yourself, 'Who can bring me down to the ground?'

2 Timothy 3:13

while evil men and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

God: 

Genesis 1:1

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

God has control of "Heaven", the world we could go to. He has control of this world, but humanity is of free will and has fallen as a whole. We (gave up) eternity in the present Earth we are standing in THOUSANDS OF GENERATIONS AGO when we originally listened to the evil one and violated God's Trust. We lost our "original eternity" Worse; EVIL was loosed on the Earth. From that moment of violation the Earth began to die, and the clock started ticking, "time" began. Everything; including us, has an expiration date. From that point of original transgression we were to: be born, to live, to age, and to die. Like a tree sapling that first breaks through the earth; it grows, lives, and falls back to the earth in its death. We are in likeness to that!

We are on the clock people, tick tock, tick tock.  We are the reason for time; we now have "time" to make the choice; good, or evil.

Some want to be independent of God. Evil's endless pleasures can often last as long as your clock is ticking, sometimes the pleasure turns into hell on Earth while the clock ticks are as loud as thunder in the poor souls ears while he strains at the evil yoke as Satan laughs. A ten-year cocaine high can't hold a candle to eternity in heaven.

Jesus:

Jesus is God's son that became human. Jesus was 100% God, and 100% man. Becoming human skin and bones he endured abandonment by his friends, humiliation, unimaginable pain, rejection, temptation from the evil one, and unbelievable grief.  While suffering all of this he glorified his father! When mankind killed him he took our wrong doing upon himself.  By doing this he took our sins: past, present, and future! The blood of Jesus covers our sin. The best news was God resurrected him from the grave!

Isaiah 53:7

He was oppressed and afflicted, yet he did not open his mouth; he was led like a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before its Shearer's is silent, so he did not open his mouth.

Jesus is our advocate to Father God, we can't approach God, and we must go through Jesus with our prayers.  We have ABSOULTLEY no right to call God our father unless we go through Jesus.

The Holy Spirit:

Before Jesus ascended back into heaven he left a comforter to dwell within our souls.  The Holy Spirit dwells within us and advises and guides us.  The Holy Spirit guides our consciousness to correct thinking and behavior.  The spirit admonishes us when we transgress, and comforts us by reminding us of God's presence in troubled times.

John 14:16-17

16.) And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever 17.) the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you

If one wants eternity they must learn the easy yoke of Godliness' with Jesus as the advocate for them. All one needs to do is confess the wrong doing "sins" and turn away from the them, we also need to admit that we know the only way to God is through the son, Jesus. We are still on the dying Earth in this life and subject to its horrors due to the original sin, but our eternal life is safe in Heaven! 

The path to Heaven can be chock full of trials, but the reward is great if one keeps focused on Christ. If a person is truly saved the Holy Spirit will drive and guide them to repentance if they should wonder from the Holy path.  It is VERY DIFFICULT for one who is truly saved to remain in sin for long. The reward for serving and believing in Christ is eternity in Heaven, that's forever folks! Sometimes folks get multiple blessings for serving God while living in the restraints of time on Earth, and some do not.  It is by God's design. We have eternity, why worry about the mansion on the hill when we have eternity in heaven? If we believe and worship God we need to maintian the drive to serve, and disciple our fellow man for Jesus.  Rember, if we are in Christ we exist FOREVER AND JOIN our creator, father God. The world we are going to will never die, and ROT in a grave. No more pain.... no more hunger...no more evil.

Matthew 7:14

13.) Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.

14.) But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Why doesn't God stop the murder, rape, and other atrocities?

We are ALL subject to the carnality of this fallen world due to our original transgression. We live in a lost, broken, and fallen world where death, struggling, and evil are all around us. While we are in our flesh we still are subject to the evil of this world's horror and atrocities.

If we choose the path of salvation the reward is ETERNITY in heaven. No pain, no sorrow, no hunger, no strife, no loneliness, no murder, no rape, no violence, NO DEATH!

Keep in mind…

IF WE ARE IN CHRIST We can STILL die a horrible death, and face the worst violations of our bodies, but when we leave this world we WILL be with our God in eternal heaven...AND NOTHING HORRIBLE WE FACED HERE will matter THERE! We live forever... All of the atrocities that we see around us are not of the world we will go to if we are in Christ. 

1 Thessalonians 5

4.) But you, brothers, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. 5.) You are all sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. 6.) So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be alert and self-controlled. 7.) For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. 8.) But since we belong to the day, let us be self-controlled, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. 9.) For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. 10.) He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. 11.) Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.

SOME OTHER POINTS…

We NEED TO open our mind, heart, AND SOUL and quit trying to live under our OWN power.  We can't do it by ourselves, that's why we struggle so much...God wants us to trust him AND RELY ON HIM.

I have confessed my sins to Christ!  I am under the blood of the new covenant; Jesus is my advocate to the father God. It is through Jesus that I have a right to call God my father. The Holy Spirit to lives within my soul and governs my conscience.  It is impossible for me to transgress without feeling the conviction of God driving me to repent immediately.

I am an imperfect man on a journey to my master Jesus in heaven where many folks I know who have been promoted before me are going to be. I mess up from time to time; but one thing is a fact, I am saved. I get back up, repent, and re-assume my Holy walk.

Learning the Christian walk should be similar to the first steps of a child. Those first steps are uneasy and unbalanced as the baby learns to hold it's body upright and put one foot in front of the other.  The child often falls as he learns to walk towards it's fathers arms, but with each fall the baby rises again; more determined, and more driven to get to his or her father's arms.

It is a shame so many folks fall away from fellowship in this walk.  They hear the devils lies accusing them of sin that is forgiven forever. Sadly, they fade away from the walk as the evil ones lies and accusation thunder in their conscience.  What happened? I'll tell you, and I ain't afraid.  It's down right SORRY lazy discipleship.  They believed Satan's lies because their Christian brothers and sisters who have made it through those crucial first years of a Christian life HAVE FORGOTTEN how Satan attacked them!  They have failed to prepare the person.

Matthew 28:19-20 

19.) Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20.) and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."

Morality is spiraling out of control as modesty is forgotten. This Earth is passing away NOW; the planet is in its death convulsions. To see this just turn on the WORLD news at 5:30 pm and you will see the proof!

The End

Indeed! A Wonderfully Supernatural God!
