I Have Learned To Obey HIs Will



It has been a remarkable year; exactly 1 year ago, I woke up one day and heard the Lord say to my heart that He wanted me to start writing a blog. He wanted me to express everything that I had learned in the past 10 years of my journey here on planet earth, He wanted to me to just write everything that came out my mind and my heart, and so I did. You never really know just how much you know until you start writing it down, and by the promptings of the Holy Spirit, the words flowed from Him directly into my hands as I typed everything I felt from my tablet in the room that I rent that I call my 'home'.

But this is not my home, and I am waiting for the call from my Savior when I will finally be home. This is the place where God has seen fit to nurture me, to encourage my spiritual growth, to express His eternal love for me; if I had never had any wants or needs I would have never known true gratitude for what He has done for me.

I have learned a great deal about obeying His will this year. It was not easy, as I wondered why so many doors were closed to me, why I could not seem to accomplish everything that the world tells me I must do, and when I came to the Lord to ask Him why, He told me everything was going to be alright, and you will get out of this situation and be victorious, but the most important thing that He said to me recently, was "stop trying to do this in your own strength, be patient and wait upon me, for I will bring you out of this so that I will get the glory".

He gave me a sign through the words of another person, so I know that my breakthrough is on the way. He has kept me this past year, I have a roof over my head, and food on the table and clothes on my back, and He has made a way for me out of no way, and the greatest thing that I can say is that I am happy and that I have peace in my heart. It is truly a wonderful thing to be kept by the God of Heaven, and to have the love of Jesus Christ in my heart!

Just recently, the Lord told me that today is last day for writing this blog, and so this is my last entry. I have been so amazed at what has happened in this country and in the world while I have been writing this blog: shooting and chaos, HOT weather and crazy weather patterns, one ubelievable presidential election that shocked the world and made me realize that EVERYTHING that goes on in this world is guided and protected by the lord:

Psalm 75 vs 4-7

“I said to the boastful, ‘Do not boast,’
And to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up the horn;

Do not lift up your horn on high,
Do not speak with insolent pride.’”

For not from the east, nor from the west,
Nor from the desert comes exaltation;

But God is the Judge;
He puts down one and exalts another.

When you see the impossible manifest itself in the world, that is a sign of God's providence and rulership of the world. The Lord is holding back the chaos so that all those who want to will come to Him and be saved! All of the strange signs in the skies, the corruption in our government and the media, the people who are pulling the strings in the background are panicking and making big mistakes because their evil acts are being exposed. They know, surely satan knows, that they have only a little time left before Jesus Christ comes back again, to reign and rule and set this world back on track and living according to the Lord's standards.

So, the lessons of life and the will of God was being taught to me as I wrote this blog, and I learned so much from what He gave me to write down. I have grown spiritually, and have learned to let go of fear, doubt, and anxiety. I have learned to lean into Him more, and the word of God has penetrated my heart and soul. To be happy means knowing who you are and loving and accepting yourself, loving the Lord and His Son Jesus Christ and believing in Him. His love is what keeps me centered and at peace.

I praise the Lord of Heaven, for He has pulled back the veil of deception in the world to expose the hate, disease and corruption in the world, and He has driven the enemy back and put Him at bay, and his agents, the dictators, the movers and the shakers of the world are beginning to stand down because the Lord will not let them destroy this world or its people until HE decides when the day of judgement will come!

Thank You Lord for your Grace and Mercy!

I won't be writing any new entries into this blog, but I will still be blogging in a new community, the Steemit community, this is my blog there: https://steemit.com/@lymorgan where I will continue to write what the Lord wants me to say and other topics as well.

Peace and Blessings to everyone reading this and I hope you will keep on living and learning with the Lord!

What I Would Like To Do In The Future



Revelation Chapter 21 vs 1-4 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

Hope is a powerful thing, it gives you a certain amount of confidence in the future. If it were not for hope in the future that Jesus Christ has promised for all of us, we would be fearful, unhappy and depressed. Looking at what is going on in the world right now, you might be apprehensive about what will happen in the near future.

If you read the bible, you know that a war is coming, the ultimate war between God and satan, good vs evil, and this war will settle for good what will happen to the human race and the universe our Lord has created for Himself and for His family. His plan for this ultimate battle is in full effect, and Jesus Christ requires His church to believe in Him, trust Him, and have faith that we will be victorious in the end.

There is coming a new earth and a new heaven, because one day this heaven and earth will pass away. The Lord will make everything over again, and this time every person or being that exists in this new universe will believe in Him, worship Him, and be filled with happiness and joy. The old ways of doing things will disappear, and no one will dwell upon the past, because weeping and sorrow will not be allowed in God's new universe. We will see Him as He is, we will be just like Him, and we will know that there is nothing greater or better to pursue, because we will have the knowledge, the experience of living outside the will of God.

So, what will I do in that new earth, in that place where joy and happiness is a requirement for living, and fear and worry are concepts that no one will be able to remember anymore? I will live in His presence, happy to know Him, grateful for His love and mercy, striving to show Him how much I love Him. In fact, I think I will do this right now so that I can practice being filled with His love and mercy - In fact, I believe that is the true definition of a true christian. We all try to live for Him, strive to show Him how much we love Him, we give our whole hearts and minds to Him, and He is willing to show all of Himself to us!

(Jesus says) "Be at peace my children, for the time has come to judge the world for its selfishness and to deal with the rebels, the children of darkness, but I will be with you, I will comfort you - I am coming back for you, just rest in me and never forget to put me first in your heart and in your lives, and you will see the coming of the new kingdom, the new heaven and the new earth..."

See The World From His Eyes



I like to to watch old tv shows, the shows that I grew up on. They were funny and basically silly at some points, but I did not realize how much the plot of the show really depended upon the quality of the actors. Sometimes the themes of the shows I watched were over the top, but the actor's perfomances made it all palatable. I didn't realise how very prophetic many of the shows were, they showed us where america was going.

I want to look forward now instead of behind, because I realize that many of the most popular shows on tv had themes that promoted more confusion and chaos than stability. I came of age in the 80's and the 90's, and so much of what emerged in those decades has come to full fruit in the 21st century.

I remember thinking that I had no business telling other people what they wanted to do with their lives, if they were gay, or having sex outside of marriage, or a woman who wanted to have an abortion. I felt back then that I did not have the right to tell those people that they shouldn't do those things; I personally wasn't willing to do what a lot of other people were doing, but somehow I got the message growing up that we all had the right to do what we wanted to do as long as it didn't hurt anybody else.

What I didn't know then was that as long as people are willing to live far from the wisdom of the Word of God, we are all affected by what individuals choose to do with their own lives. Evil and chaos are no longer just in the back alleyways of life, it is manifesting itself in every courtroom, business office and home. We can no longer ignore the corruption and depravity that exists in the world, because most of the world refuses to live by God's standards, and so evil, hate, and selfishness feels welcomed everywhere it travels in the world!

Even though I was not as spiritually mature as I am now, I still had enough faith to live my life according to the word of God, and believe me, I didn't always live that life perfectly, and I did have problems and issues, but I realized that my faith and belief in God kept me from doing the things that some people think are their right and their priviledge.

Now when I look back on my life and the things that I watched and did, I realize that I need something better, something more pure and worthy of consideration, and I will look forward to do things that feed my soul and not just my flesh. I want to see things as the Lord sees them, and to think upon things that give me joy inside and out. He will guide me to the things that are funny and entertaining and also spiritually fulfilling. Thank you God for giving me hope, love, peace, and understanding!

What We Can look Forwrd To



As christians, we can look forward to the Lord bringing hope and peace into the world; His son, Jesus Christ, will come back to the earth to rule and reign for a thousand years, and we will be with Him, serving Him, helping to restore what was lost a long time ago, which will be a Kingdom of Peace, Love, and Light.

We can look forward to receiving everything that we have lost in our lives, endless joy and happiness, a sense of true fulfillment and a well deserved rest from fear, pain and suffering. It is deserved because we chose to believe in Him, we trust and obey Him, and He promises to give us everything that we need.

Being a follower of Jesus Christ engenders hope in our hearts, and that is what we will need to get through these days. He is our Rock and our Redeemer, so we must believe that everything we see happening right now is within His will; He will provide a way for His children to survive and even thrive in these hard times.

When you put your trust in Him, It will not be in vain; if you are afraid, come to Him now and confess how you feel, and He will replace your fears and worries with joy and peace. He will give you a lion's heart of boldness; you will be bold with courageous love, tenderness, and compassion. He will work miracles through you if you speak the words of faith, so proclaim His word into your situation, and give Him praise, and watch what He will do for you!

Servant Of The Most High God

Revelation 1:1

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John.

If you believe in Jesus Christ, if you count Him as your Lord and Savior, you are counted by Him as His servant, His ambassador of light and love to the lost and the forsaken, the unbelivers and the rebels, the ones that the Lord loves; He will not accept them as His own until they accept His son, Jesus Christ.

Being a servant in the House of the Lord means believing in Him, trusting in Him, and obeying Him; He has all of the answers and the resources for life and we have our bodies, our minds, and our will to do good in the world; when you and the Lord come together and agree to work with each other, there is a new light in this world of darkness, and another soldier is activated and prepared to fight on the battlefield in the army of the Lord.

How do you know that you are ready to fight? Many times we feel fearful or inadequate for the tasks that the Lord is commanding us to do, but we forget that He is not asking us to do these things with our own strength, He wants us to lean into His strength and watch Him manifest Himself within our daily lives and circumstances. People are not attracted to the ordinary but to the extraordinary; when they see a change in your life, when they see miraculous happenings in your everyday life, they have to stop at least for a moment and ask you, "How is that posstible? How did you come out of that situation? Who is the God that you serve?", and then you can tell them, it was not you, just point them to Jesus with your words, get yourself out of the way, and watch the Holy Spirit work in their hearts while you praise the Holy One Of Israel in your heart!

Is it worth being a servant of the Most High God? Yes!, and no one else will be able to take away the peace, joy, and happiness in your heart except you! Don't worry about what other people say or try to do to you, you have the God of Heaven on your side, and you will be victorious! Your job and mine is to show truth, love, and compassion to the world, even when some may stab you in the back or cause you real harm; that is when you must pray harder, louder, and deeper in front of your enemies, because the Lord will deliver you, and your enemies will be ashamed of what they did, and your heart will be healed and restored!

Take Your Hands Off It, Let Him Live In You!



We keep trying to do this this thing on our own, but it doesn't seem to work; we have our own ideas, our own agenda, we think we know better than the God of Heaven. What more can we do? Take Your Hands Off It, Let Him Live In You!

We are afraid, the world is changing so fast, wars and rumors of wars, disease and pestilence, violence and hate, pride and destruction; Where is God when we need Him?

In the darkness, a light appears, I hear a song of peace and joy; why is that person not afraid, what do they know that I do not know?

What is the answer? You must believe, believe in the one that God sent to us, believe in His Son, Jesus Christ. What happens when you believe?

You are saved, God forgives your sins, and the Holy Spirit comes to live inside of you; what is that i hear, a whisper from my heart? "Don't Be Afraid, I Am Here, Be at Peace."

So, what should you do when life's issues tries to flood you with defeat..... Take Your Hands Off It, Let Him Live In You!

When I See The Blood I Will Passover You....



Exodus 12:13 KJV

...And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.....

I would like to say that I am pleased with how my life is going, not because I am famous or rich, and I have had many setbacks in my life so far; I am pleased because I know that God loves me and He is willing to work with me and live through me so that His Name will get the Glory! He knows who I am, what I am capable of doing, and what is in my heart.

He cares about me; I am not perfect, and I could make a mistake at any time, but He sees beyond my limitations and is still very delighted by me. Why? Because I choose to believe in Him, I have faith in Him, and I accepted His son,Jesus Christ, as my Lord and Savior. If it sounds simple to you, it is; humanity tries to turn everything that it does into a complicated issue....

Look at all of the different religions in the world, the rituals and the tasks that these worshippers of other faiths have to do. They are so determined to do good deeds and endless rituals, trying to appease their God into accepting them, so that when they die, they may be given passage into heaven. We need to pray for the world and for unbelievers, that the veil of deception be lifted from their hearts, so that they can see the true God of Heaven, and be able and willing to accept Jesus Christ as the only way to eternal love, life, and peace.

God's answer to sin and eternal damnation is the death and ressurection of Jesus Christ, who died on a cross at calvary as a substitution for all of our sins; He has made us righteous, and whenever Father God looks upon us, He doesn't see our past mistakes and our flaws, He sees the Blood of the Lamb; Jesus's blood has been applied to us, we have been spiritually regenerated by the washing of the Blood of Jesus Christ. When God looks down upon the earth, He sees us as who we are, the Bride of Christ, and He sees what we will become in the future, holy and pure changed within a blink of an eye when Jesus Christ comes back for His church. He will defeat satan and his devils, and will come to rule and reign on the earth for a thousand years!

This is God's promise, that when you believe in Jesus Christ, you are His child forever and ever, and He will treat you with love and respect, He will guide you and protect you. You will receive His favor. When the time comes, everyone will know who is God's and who is a child of the devil; God's wrath will Passover you, but the judgement will never leave those who rebelled against Him and His holy word. He cares for you, so be at peace in these troubled times, He as has a plan for His children, just seek His face, and rest in Him, and be careful to follow the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and never, ever let go of Him!

I Need Thee Every Hour



I need thee oh I need thee
Every hour I need thee
Oh bless me now my savior
I come to thee.....(old song of praise)

When I am feeling down, I need thee
When I feel lost or alone, I need thee
When everyone else forsakes me, I need thee
I need thee just to survive.....

I can lift my hands in praise
and know that God, The Lord of the Universe
is listening to me. He has my best interests at heart.


I can pray to Him and know that He will answer me,
I can feel His presence in my heart.


He encourages me with His love, He fills my empty places,
and when He calls my name, I hear Him, and I listen for His commmands....


Where is the God of Heaven in your circumstances?
He is right there standing next to you, but you were not able
or not willing to see Him.

Ask Him now what you should do, and He will answer.
When He speaks to you, you must believe
that He exists, you must have faith, and when you accept
Him, Jesus Christ, as your Lord and Savior,
your life will never be the same!

How People Treat Each Other Is Essential



1 John 4:19-21

We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from him: whoever loves God must also love his brother.

I have been watching what is going on in america this year, and it is amazing! Last year was ridiculous, crazy and HOT..., but this year's issues seem to be the inability for all people everywhere to listen to each other, respect their views, and there is a lack of cooperation!

Everyone has their own opinion of what our society should be like, and they are unwilling to hear the counterpoint. The people in our government that we voted into office refuse to work with each other. Everyone is repeatedly stabbing the president of the united states in the back in an attempt to take down not just Him, but our entire government structure!

It amazes me that this country is working as well as it is, and that for me alone is a miracle; what should we do as citizens of the kingdom of God when we see such blatant disregard for each other in the world? It is time to start praying like you have never prayed before!

God is moving in the world like never before, and we as his children have to be completely connected to Him and be sensitive to the promptings of the Holy Spirit. We must pray for peace, love, and cooperation to dominate on captial hill. We must try to cooperate with all the people in our lives, whether they are believers or non believers. Being a follower of Christ means living by His word, self sacrifice, and showing love and compassion to others.

You may work or interact with people who treat you with disdain because you love Jesus Christ; they may have authority over you, but you must know that this authority is just perceived authority, because the only one who has true authority over us is Jesus, and He wants you to follow His lead and not to worry about what others do or say about you. He will fight your battles for you, so just sit back, be kind and considerate to your adversaries even when they do hurtful things to you, and pray blessings over them. The Lord will deal with them when they don't respond correctly to His grace and mercy.

We in the body of Christ must lead by example, and we have to love and encourage each other and show the world what cooperating with each other is like. We have to get over denominational differences and stop arguing about scriptural interpretations, and begin to listen to each other. We must consider the value of what our brothers and sisters in Christ are saying about different issues, and then ask the Lord to confirm their point of view.

If we cannot work with each other, how can we expect the unbelievers to do so? We must fix our own house first before we can deal with the world's issues, because the world is watching us, and they don't believe we have the answer that they are looking for, because some christians don't truly believe much of what the bible teaches, and they are not hearing the voice of the Holy Spirit.

Keep on praying mighty spiritual warriors of Christ, for that is the only way things will begin to change in the Body of Christ, and that is the way we can change the circumstances in the world, by seeking God's will for our lives, and then living them out for His Glory!

Why I Love Sundays



Monday starts off the week, and we become motivated to do our tasks before the end of the week comes. Friday makes you aware that the the business for the week is almost over, and if you have things to do that need to be done before the weekend comes, you must do them right away! Saturday has a nice feel to it, it is the beginning of the weekend, and you might feel relaxed and do things that you want to do that you were not able to do during the week, but Sunday, Sunday is special......

Sunday is a day of relaxation for many, the day to prepare yourself mentally and physically before the new week begins. Many people have quiet times of reflection, they read the paper, or watch their favorite tv show. Some enjoy the outdoors, they go out to play, they go to the mall to shop, or to watch a movie. There are many things that can be done on Sunday, including staying in and sleeping all day long!

Why is Sunday so special to a christian? Because Our Lord, Jesus Christ, rose from the dead on this day, with all the power and authority given to HIm by His Father, The Lord Almighty, and that began the church age, healing and deliverance, salvation and redemption, love and mercy!

If Jesus Christ has not risen from the dead on that Sunday Morning, then I would have no hope, I would not know what true love or mercy is, I would not rise in the morning with a song in my heart and a loving greeting for my Father and my God, to feel the loving touch of His love in my heart.

Not Even the beauty of this world or the awesome majesty of the stars in the sky would be able to fill the emptyness of my heart. The endless struggle to live on planet earth, to get something of value before I die, would be a desperate act. I would see people as obstacles to conquer instead of having a desire to love and care for them. No amount of sex, drugs, alcohol, or things that I acquired could fill that hole, that void within my heart, but since there would be nothing else to fill that hole, because Jesus Christ had not risen from the dead to save me for Himself, I would party hard and do everything my heart desired, because I would know that this is all that I would have to look forward to, and then death and eternal separation for all those things that I put so much effort into possessing. Yes, that would be life without purpose or hope.

But, thanks be to God, Jesus Christ did rise from the grave that sweet Sunday Morning, and He did sacrifice Himself and died on the cross of Calvary for your sins and for mine. His atonement for my sins has set me free from sin and eternal death! I do have a future, and I will live with my Savior, Jesus Christ, in the presence of Father God, forever and ever with the Holy Spirit forever present in my heart! Thank you Jesus, for your ever loving grace and mercy, there is no one like you, and I will cherish you forever and ever! Hallelujah!!

That is why I love Sundays, because I take time to remember what He has done for me, and I remember to rest in Him, and to be led by Him in the spirit; Sunday is our day to praise His name and to give Him all the Honor, and the Glory, and the Praise. We are His children, and He is our Father forever....Amen!

If you would like to celebrate Sundays forever and ever in this way, then speak aloud this Prayer of Salvation:

Prayer of Salvation

Lord,

I repent for trying to be master of my own life. I change my mind about who I want to be in charge of my life. I turn from my useless and unproductive thoughts that I am the center of my universe and choose to believe in the living God who created everything, including me (Acts 14:15). I have lived without a purpose but now I will live to hear and obey You, God (Jn. 5:19, 20,30).

I confess with my lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. I believe that God so loved the world He sent His only Son Jesus to shed His blood to wash away the barrier of sin (Jn. 3:16)

I receive You, Jesus as MY Lord and Savior (Jn. 1:11,12).

I welcome You, Holy Spirit, into my life to rescue and empower me and to restore me to intimacy with my heavenly Father (Acts 2:38).

If you just confessed this prayer, you are saved! I welcome you into the family my (brother/sister) I pray for peace, joy, and happiness in your life as you allow the Lord to love you and bless you and give you assurance of everlasting life with Him forever and ever......PRAISE GOD!

May the Lord keep you and Bless you this day....AMEN
