The Wilderness Experience

Oh how desolate it is,  but peaceful. There is no humanity, and no life, but the spirit of God.
It's extremely lonely,  as there is no beauty,  and nothing to entertain or be entertained , but the spirit of God.
Oh where is life? Why am I here? What is the purpose?
And God spoke: life begins when you die to self. You are in a place where you must see me.  To focus on my commandments. The purpose is to get you to surrender, to humble yourself,  and to protect you from worldly distractions.
But God, how long will I stay here? I hear you,  and I have no choice but to see things your way.  What will be the difference when I leave this place?
God spoke: you decide when to move from this place. Your decisions brought you here. You always have choice. Just know it is my will for you to live and not die.  The difference is whether you will or will not choose this day whom you will serve; Me or Satan. Your life depends on it. 
Thank you God for the wilderness experience. I truly want to live and not die. Show me how to die to myself. Teach me your ways so I can move out of this place with wisdom and truth. I want your purpose to be fulfilled in my life. I surrender all to you God.
And God spoke, my child you have spoke well,  I have already carried you to the next level,  just keep your eyes on me.

What are you waiting for?

What are you waiting for? Get up from that place of hardness! Who said you don't have the strength of God? Who said you would not suffer greatly for his name (God) sake? He purposed you to stand strong, and walk through the valley of the shadow of death. Fear not the evil presence. God is standing nearby, whose power is greater than the evil one's .

What are you waiting for? Lift your arms, wave your hands in the air, and glorify God; for he has glorified you. He has blessed you in the midst of the storms of life. Dance in the midst of the trials; you have won many battles, and you shall win this one.

What are you waiting for? Let your light shine upon the earth. He has given you gifts that no man can take from you: nor can he give them to you.

What are you waiting for? Use your gifts in all the earth: God is standing by, waiting to assist you while working his works. They will mock and ridicule you, but God shall open their eyes and awaken their understanding, when they witness his works being performed through you. They will know it's impossible for any human to work that kind of work, without the hand of God!

What are you waiting for? Didn't God bring you out of those hard places before? Didn't he work miracles in your own life? Move out of your stubborn places, and serve God with everything you got in you! The time is now! God is coming back, and he is counting on you to keep his commandments, and allow his gifts to win the souls of many, as he has done for you.

What are you waiting for? Let go and let God! It's your time to shine.... God has already gone before you. Follow him!

Isaiah 43:1-3... Thus saith the Lord, that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed the O Israel, fear not: for I have redeemed thee,  I have called thee by name, thou art mine.
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not over flow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shall not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
Since you wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee,  and people for thy life.

Hello God

Hello God! I am a sinner,  I hide things that are against your will in the closet of my soul.

Hello God!  I allow the beast within to direct me into the pits of hell. I wallow in my own negative paradox day after day,  knowing there is a better way.

Hello God!  Where is my faith? Where is my trust? Who shall I call on, when I have willfully sinned.

Hello God! I give in to temptation daily. It feels good to my flesh. It brings a happiness that temporarily covers my wounds. It is a drug habit that I pretend to have a desire to let go.

Hello God! I like my flesh,  because I take care of it with my own understanding. Even when I know it hurts my body,  I continue to feed it with the garbage of this world.

Hello God! Even after you've shown me the stinky sin of my flesh, I fight you to hold on to everything that's in it. Yet,  I call on you when it's about to die physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Hello God! Tell me something. You said I don't have to fight this battle alone. But I keep fighting it alone.  I attempt deep intercessory prayer on behalf of myself and others,  and somehow I find myself in a rut, at each level of my growth. I'm blown too and fro. Bouncing in the air like pieces of debris. I think I'm going in the right direction,  but find out I'm lost.

Hello God....

WAIT! MY CHILD! I'VE FOLLOWED YOU THROUGHOUT YOUR LIFE. I CARRIED YOU ON THE CROSS WITH ME. I BREATHED NEW LIFE IN YOU,  I WASHED THE INNERMOST PARTS OF YOUR BEING. I SAVED YOU FROM SUICIDE, AND PEOPLE YOU DIDN'T KNOW WAS LURKING IN DARK PLACES, TO HARM YOU. I GAVE YOU LIFE INSIDE OF YOU, AND HELPED YOU GIVE BIRTH. I WOKE YOU UP EVERYDAY AND WAITED FOR YOU TO HONOR ME,  BUT YOU RESISTED ME INSTEAD OF THE DEVIL. YET, I'M STILL STANDING HERE WAITING FOR YOU, WITH OPEN ARMS. WILL YOU COME? WILL YOU OBEY? WILL YOU KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS, OR WILL YOU CONTINUE TO CRY OUT IN THE WIND,  WHERE YOUR VOICE DISAPPEAR IN THIN AIR?

HELLO MY CHILD.... I'M HERE IF YOU ARE FOR REAL! JUST EXTEND YOUR ARMS IN ANY DIRECTION, OPEN YOUR MOUTH,  AND CONFESS YOUR SINS. TOUCH ME AND I WILL TOUCH YOU!

HELLO MY CHILD.... I FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS... I'VE HEARD YOUR CRY, I'VE SEEN YOUR STRUGGLES. JUST TAKE MY HAND,  I WILL LEAD AND YOU WILL FOLLOW. I WILL BE YOUR GOD,  AND YOU WILL BE OF MY PEOPLE. 

Ezekiel 37:23,
They will no longer defile themselves with their idols, or with their detestable things, or with any of their transgressions; but I will deliver them from all their dwelling places, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them. And they will be My people, and I will be their God.

Jeremiah 7:23,
But,  this is what I command them saying, obey my voice, and I will be your God,  and you will be my people; and you will walk in all the way which I command you, that it may be well with you.

Psalm 81:10,
I,  the Lord, am your God, who brought you up from the land of Egypt, open your mouth wide and I will fill it.

Isaiah 41:10,
Do not fear, for I am with you, do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Condemned

Men and Women of God are often talked about, or ridiculed for being themselves. They are considered hypocrites if they make one wrong move in the eyes of the world. People fail to realize Roman's 3:10, there is none righteous no not one.

Men and women of God are just as normal as everyone else. They try very hard to keep the word down inside to keep themselves humbled. In their humanity, they too feel the need to entertain the ignorance of this world, but choose to fight the good fight of faith ( 1 Timothy 2:12).

Many believe, men and women of God should be perfect in all their ways. However, only God is perfect. What God does is perfect faulty areas in his children's lives. Understand, there are many within them (faults). So many, that there will be a lifetime of purging, washing, delivering, and renewing.

Those of you who choose not the things of God, will never understand the works in your members (body). You will always succumb to every sin and every temptation it bring. You will experience Galatians 5:19-21, the works of the flesh. Your eyes will never be open to the revelation of self and the evil spirits of the world. You will be blinded to life, and u will condemn and be condemned! (2 Corinthians 4:4). In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

The best part about living for Christ is that at least we have the opportunity, through grace, to repent, and learn how to exercise Galatians 5:22-24. We are justified by faith (Galatians 2:16). So no matter how much the world condemn us, we gain strength and power to withstand the fiery darts thrown at us, and the ones we throw at ourselves.  Through having a repentant heart, God forgives us,  and we are given chance after chance, to get it right,  with his help.  REMEMBER: WE ALL WILL BE JUDGED IN THE END. GOD IS NOT A RESPECTER OF PERSONS.  (Romans 2:11) and Colossians 3:25.... Everyone will be judged for what they have done, while on earth, when God return.

Though Women and Men of God are not thoroughly healed, and show imperfections still, pray for them,  as God does convict them. Isaiah 6:5, then I said, woe is me, for I am ruined! Because I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the king, the Lord of hosts.

Stop condemning, try God for yourselves, and you will see truth about yourselves and the world you live in. Will you continue to condemn, and be condemned, or be convicted by God?
