Press on in

Many believers have had an experienced where Jesus spoke to them, a long time ago and after that nothing happened. Many others are looking for the experience, they want to hear from God, but they are hearing nothing. And Jesus said that: “My sheep listen to My voice and they follow Me.” Jesus wants to guide you. Jesus wants us to be in relationship with Him. He said: Follow Me. He gave us the Holy Spirit to guide us, His own Spirit but we must PRESS ON IN, we must seek Him. Jesus wants our undivided attention. 

People want God to speak to them, when it pleases them, but we must devote our lives to Jesus, to the Kingdom of God. Nothing must be more important than Jesus, than hearing His voice, than being led by His Holy Spirit. We must hunger and thirst, press on in. Remove every obstacle. Spend time with the Lord, fast, pray. SEEK JESUS Himself with all your heart. You won’t find Jesus in the Bible. You won’t find Him in fellowship with other people. Other people might share with you their experience with Jesus. You might read in the Bible how God dealt with other people in the past but that must encourage us to seek our OWN experience and not just a once of experience but a CONSTANT LIVE RELATIONSHIP with the Living God, because God is alive. Jesus is alive, but we need to PRESS ON IN. 

People say they don’t feel the presence of God. God is there, Jesus is with you. He has never left you but you need to PRESS ON IN. If we OBEY His Spirit what He has planted in us, iIf we live in RIGHTEOUSNESS, in HOLINESS and if we DO what is pleasing to Him, if we witness for Him, He will reveal Himself to us but JESUS REQUIRES OUR UNDIVIDED ATTENTION. We must be focused on Him. Press on in all the time. Then we will experience His presence.

We cannot serve two Masters. We will either hate the one and love the other. If we do not LOVE JESUS and GO AFTER HIM with all our power, we cannot follow Him. You CAN experience the presence of God if you SEEK HIM, if you PRESS ON IN. He said: “Draw closer to Me and I will draw closer to you.” PRESS ON IN, seek Jesus. Let your mind always be on Him. Wait on Him. Expect Him. Do what is pleasing to Him and He will reveal Himself to you more and more. PRESS ON IN! SEEK HIM. Don’t look at other people. Don’t look at their experience, seek your own. SEEK JESUS and you will find Him. 

May Jesus bless you. 

Most believers don't get it!

Most believers don't get it! They don't have salvation, they don't have Jesus! Salvation is KNOWING God the Father, but you have first got to get to know Jesus Christ, for real. You fall on your knees and you cry out to Him, you invite Him into your life. You cry out to Him, you call on Him and He comes into your life! He regenerates you, He makes you a NEW PERSON! And you KNOW, THAT YOU KNOW THAT YOU KNOW THAT JESUS IS ALIVE! He is real, because He has revealed Himself to you and you just want to please Him.

It is about that relationship with Jesus. It is not about reading the Bible, about going to church, about fellowship, it is about BEING WITH JESUS, because Jesus brings you into the Father house! He makes you a child of God, so that you can be with Father! Through Jesus, you are in relationship with Father. You can be speaking to Heavenly Father and you can be LISTENING to Him!

You OBEY Jesus, you are baptized in water and you come out of that water a new man, you ask Him for the baptism in the Holy Spirit and you are connected to God the Father with a heavenly tongue by which you communicate with the Father all the time. You wait on Him, you ask Him to guide you and that is how you know HOW TO BE PLEASING TO FATHER!

Have you met Jesus? Have you been made new, been born again, that you know that: I AM A CHILD OF GOD? That you know: I HAVE A FATHER? And I just want to be with Him! I just want to be pleasing to Him and I wait on Him in prayer. I wake up at night and I LISTEN, He speaks to me.

Have you met Jesus? Have you come into the Father's house? Have you become a child of God? Is Jesus real to you? Is God your Father? Or are you just religious?

HAVE YOU BECOME A CHILD OF GOD? HAVE YOU GOT IT? HAVE YOU FOUND JESUS? If not, go on your knees now and cry out to Him, UNTIL YOU FIND HIM, for real!

May Jesus bless you.

How serious is your relationship with Jesus?

How serious is your relationship with Jesus? How much of your day is occupied with Jesus? Do you have Him on your mind all the time? Do you take Him in consideration in every thought, in every decision that you make? Do you love Jesus more than anything?
Was there ever a time in your life that you were truly in love with Jesus, that He was the centre of your life? And maybe you have fallen away from that close relationship with Jesus. Now other things are more important. Maybe you get more excited about Christian friends, about your buddies, about the TV, even about reading Bible, going to church, but you are not that excited about Jesus. You are not spending that much time with Him. Your time with Him is maybe a few minutes before you fall asleep or maybe it is just a Sunday affair, just go to church on Sunday that is your relationship with Jesus.  Jesus gave a warning to a certain lot of people of whom you might be one. I read from Revelation 2:4 He says:"but I have this against you, that you have left your first love. Remember therefore from where you have fallen and repent and do the deeds you did at first or else I am coming to you and will remove your lamp stand out of its place, UNLESS you REPENT.” Is Jesus still your first love? Are you telling everybody about Jesus, are you excited about Jesus or has your love grown cold? How is your relationship with Jesus?
May Jesus bless you.

Working your relationship

If you want to have eternal life and spend eternity with Jesus you need to make sure that your relationship with Him is right. You need to work on your relationship or else you will have no relationship. A successful relationship is very hard work, it means self-sacrifice, denying yourself, your own desires and doing what Jesus wants you to do. A successful relationship comes about when you do what pleases Him, not what pleases you, what pleases HIM. And He promised, “seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all the other things will be added unto you.” YOU FIRST NEED TO GET YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS RIGHT AND YOU MUST KEEP IT RIGHT. That is hard work. You must every day of your life, for the rest of your life, for eternity, you must work on that relationship and keep it right or else you will have no relationship.

Jesus said:”If you love Me, keep My commands! Do what I say,”and “if you keep My words, then I will reveal Myself to you.” You will get to know Him. You get to know Jesus when you seek Him with all your heart. His words are written in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. If you read those words you will know exactly what Jesus wants of us. HE WANTS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS, TOTAL DEDICATION TO HIM. Repent and be baptized, live holy and He will give you the gift of the Holy Spirit, His own Spirit will come and dwell in you and you will live in constant relationship with Him, but you have got to work on that relationship. You have got to be tuned in, seeking, praying, you must choose Jesus above everything else. Rather than going after your own desires and your own ambitions you go after Jesus. It's not easy but if you seek Him with all your heart you will find Him and YOU HAVE TO KEEP ON SEEKING HIM. Its easy to get distracted. It is sometimes much nicer to go and spend some time with friends rather than to pray. It is nicer to party, to go and go after the things of the flesh – those are the pleasures of this world, but you need to forfeit, give it up IF you want to be part of the Kingdom of Heaven.

It is not about sinning less. It is about a PERFECT RELATIONSHIP! Jesus must be perfectly satisfied with you and me. We must have His total approval and you can only have that if your relationship with Him is right. He rewards those who diligently seek Him. YOU HAVE TO SEEK HIM IN PRAYER. You have to wait on Him. If you wake up tonight, get up and pray. Spend time with Jesus, don't go watch the TV. Don't go do other things. If you want wisdom, ask of Jesus. Jesus must be your reality, every moment of your life. Jesus must be the center of your thoughts then He will add all the other things to you because He is Almighty! He loves you, He cares for you! But, do you care for Him? Do you care for your relationship with Him? Do you care to be pleasing to Him? If you do, SHOW IT. Seek Him with all your heart and you will find Him.

May Jesus bless you.

YOUR SALVATION DEPENDS ON...

Your salvation depends on only one thing and that is your relationship with Jesus. Jesus is the only One who can give you eternal life, nobody else. Jesus paid the price for the redemption of the whole world and He is inviting everybody to come in, to become part of His Kingdom, to have eternal life, but very few people are interested in Jesus Himself. Jesus said: If you love Me, obey My Words, do what I say. His Words are written in the Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and those Words are the condition. If you love Jesus, you will OBEY those Words and then you will have eternal life. Also, if you obey those Words, He promised that He will REVEAL HIMSELF to you. He will open the door and you will get to know Him better. You will build your relationship with Him. If you don’t want Jesus and you don’t want a relationship with Him, you don’t want to obey Him, you cannot have eternal life. The condition is: repent and be baptized, that is for a start, repent and be baptized, turn away from sin, turn away from serving yourself. Be baptized in water for the washing off of your sins and obey Jesus Christ and then you will have eternal life. But people don’t want that. They want salvation but they don’t want Jesus. Jesus promised His Holy Spirit to those who repent and are baptized in water. They don’t want His Holy Spirit, they want things their own way because the Holy Spirit will guide us, every step of the way, will guide us into righteousness, will tell us the will of God, will show us how to be pleasing to Jesus, so that He will approve of us, that’s the condition, is that Jesus must approve of you. How is your relationship with Jesus? Have you received the Holy Spirit? Are you led by the Holy Spirit, do you listen, do you follow? Have you repented? Do you truly love Jesus?
How is your relationship with Jesus? Because He will say to most believers in that day: "Go away I never knew you, your workers of wickedness."  Many of them, believers, preachers, they said Lord in Your Name we cast out demons, we did many things, we build churches and He will say to them: Go away I never knew you, because they never loved Him, they never obeyed Him, they never followed the guidance of the Holy Spirit. They were busy with their own life.
How is your relationship with Jesus? Do you pray, do you truly love Him, do you receive revelation from Him? Is Jesus real to you? How is your relationship with Jesus, because that will determine your salvation?
May Jesus bless you.

You cannot know Jesus through Bible study

You cannot get to know Jesus through Bible study, or reading the books, listening to the testimonies of people who know Jesus. You might get to know the Bible very well, you might get to know those people very well but you still don’t know Jesus.  And that is why He will say to so many people in that day: "Go away I never knew you."  MOST BELIEVERS DO NOT KNOW JESUS.  The only way that you get to know Jesus is through PRAYER.  You go into your closet, in your room, you close that door and you PRAY, you SEEK HIM with all your heart.  You CRY OUT to HIM UNTIL He reveals Himself to you.  JESUS IS ALIVE! He is God Almighty and if we SEEK HIM, He will reveal Himself to us.  The only way to have a relationship with Jesus is to receive revelation from Jesus, all the time.  You might have had a revelation 10 years ago but if you do not have a revelation every day, you don’t have a relationship.  You need to SEEK HIM with all your heart and then you will find Him.  You need to WORK on that relationship all the time, press on in and seek Him and you will find Him.  If your relationship with Jesus is not REAL then you have no relationship with Him.  You DON’T KNOW HIM.  Most believers don’t have a real relationship with Jesus, they don’t have salvation, they are LOST.  The only way to build your relationship is through PRAYER, SEEK JESUS in PRAYER.  Do you have a real relationship with Jesus, friend?  Now is the time to get to know Him for REAL.  SEEK HIM UNTIL you KNOW JESUS, until HE ANSWERS you.  Work that relationship until it is more real than anything else.  JESUS IS ALIVE!
May Jesus bless you.

Do not lose your power

The power of a child of God is in his relationship with Jesus Christ. Your relationship with Jesus Christ is built when you obey Jesus. Jesus said:”He who obeys My words, He it is who loves Me and Me and My Father will come and live with Him and I will reveal Myself to him.” You must reserve yourself holy unto Jesus Christ, do not become conformed to this world, be separate and He will accept you and you will live in close relationship with Jesus Christ. Do not open the door for the devil because he will soften you up as he has done with the churches. The devil has come in the back door and now he is sitting on the pulpit. Do not allow the devil to infiltrate you, do not become conformed to the world, do not do the same things, do not fill your mind with the same things, but let the mind of Christ come into you through your relationship with Jesus Christ.
Do not open yourself to gossip and to worldly talk but keep yourself pure unto Jesus. The moment you open yourself to worldly things, to criticizing your brothers and your sisters, then you allow the devil in, then you lose the power of God. You need to be focused on Jesus Christ dear friend. You don't need fellowship with the world, you need fellowship with the Holy Spirit of God. You need to be focused on Jesus all the time, you must LISTEN, you must PRAY and you must receive from Him. You can only be pleasing to God if you are led by the Holy Spirit of God, not if you become conformed to this world. You need Jesus, you don't need the world, you don't need to be conformed to this world. You don't need to laugh at their jokes and be part of their systems. Jesus said:”Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these other things will be added unto you.” If you seek to do the Kingdom of God, you will not be short of anything, dear friend. Set your sight on Jesus Christ and seek Him with all your heart, do not allow the devil to come in. Do NOT LOSE YOUR POWER TO SATAN, do not become worldly but submit yourself fully to God. Focus totally on Jesus and be led by the Holy Spirit and THE POWER OF GOD WILL WORK IN AND THROUGH YOUR LIFE to the glory of the Kingdom of God.
May Jesus bless you.

GOD'S PLAN OF SALVATION is a LIE!

Many people have been deceived by a teaching that is referred to as GOD'S PLAN OF SALVATION, where salvation is presented as a series of steps that you take to have eternal life. It goes something like this: You say the SINNERS PRAYER and you must get baptized(some churches), and others, you just need to join the church and now you have salvation!

Dear friends, that is a lie, because many people believe that they are saved but they don't know Jesus. SALVATION IS KNOWING JESUS CHRIST, nothing else. You only get to know Jesus Christ when you go down on your knees and you cry out to Him, UNTIL YOU GET TO KNOW HIM. You cry out and you repent of your sins UNTIL YOU ARE TOUCHED BY JESUS. You need to spiritually connect with Him. You will know that you have met up with the living God, and then you TURN AWAY FROM SIN, you turn away from your former lifestyle. You become obedient to Jesus Christ until death. You follow Him and you become part of the Kingdom of God, you submit yourself to Jesus. You obey HIM (The words of Jesus are written in the gospels – Matthew, Mark, Luke & John) You are baptized in water, and He promised us the Holy Spirit that He will give to those who obey Him, and His Holy Spirit will guide you into all truth, He will speak to you, will remind you of the words of Jesus, will teach you all things. You need to LISTEN to the Holy Spirit, and you will not get the Holy Spirit, dear friend, if you don't obey Jesus Christ. Some people have received the Holy Spirit but they are not listening, they are not following Jesus, they have become religious, they have become part of the system. Salvation is not a system, dear friend, salvation is knowing Jesus Christ Himself, walking with Him, day by day, seeking to please Him all the time, being aware of Him.

Jesus must be real to you. There is no PLAN OF SALVATION. Salvation is KNOWING Jesus Christ, and HIM KNOWING YOU, for real! And you must stay with Him, until the very end of your life. If you desert Him, if you turn away, if you back slide you are lost, you are going to hell, friend! You need to stay with Jesus. Salvation is knowing Jesus Christ and Him knowing you in a REAL RELATIONSHIP.

Have you been deceived or do you really know Jesus? Do you walk with Him, day by day? Do you LISTEN to His voice and follow Him? Are you living to please Jesus?

Get to know Jesus, friend, before it is too late.

May Jesus bless you.

Knowing Jesus for Real

There is only one thing that will determine where we will spend eternity and that is our relationship with Jesus Christ, whether Jesus knew us.  Jesus will say to many people in that final day, He will say to them: “Go away I never knew you, you evildoers.”  Dear friend once you have heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ and once you have read about Jesus in the Bible, you need to get to know Him and serve Him as Lord and Master for real because He is the Living God.  If you do not have a real relationship with Him, you don’t know Him.  You need to get to know Jesus and make sure that He knows you.  You need to live in a daily relationship with Him.  He can talk, He said: “My sheep LISTEN to My voice and they FOLLOW Me. “ If you go on your knees and you cry out to Jesus and you seek Him with all your heart, you humble yourself before Him, cry out to Him and ask Him to come into your life, to save you, He will.  He will stretch out His Hand of mercy and He will touch you and you will know that you’ve made contact with the living God.  But that is the beginning dear friend.  That is the beginning of a relationship that can lead to eternal life, IF you WORK that RELATIONSHIP,  IF you SEEK JESUS in PRAYER, CONSTANTLY.  If you seek to be pleasing to Him, He will put His Spirit in you and He will speak to you.  You will understand what the will of God is, but you need to seek Him.  It is not easy to get into Heaven.  It is not easy to have eternal life.  You need to work at it.  You need to seek Jesus with all your heart and then you will find Him.  You need to be in a real relationship with Him.  If we draw closer to Him He will draw closer to us.  If we seek Him we will find Him.  And if you don’t know Him dear friend, and He does not know you, there is no way that you will spend eternity in Heaven with Him.  If you don’t get that relationship right NOW, then you will never have eternal life.  It is not about reading the Bible, about going to church, it is about your RELATIONSHIP  WITH JESUS CHRIST.  If you DON’T KNOW HIM and you DON”T have a REAL RELATIONSHIP with HIM you cannot have eternal life.  Eternal life is JESUS, KNOWING HIM, SEEKING HIM, FOLLOWING HIM every day and being PLEASING to HIM.  Dear friend, do you have a real relationship with Jesus Christ?
May Jesus bless you.

In His Presence

Many Christians find it difficult to spend time in prayer. They run out of words and thoughts and don’t know what to pray. What they do not realize is that we are in the presence of God every moment of our lives. Nothing is hidden from His sight ever. God knows everything, even the intentions of our hearts. He knows our thoughts, our worries, fears and all our emotions.

For a Christian, Jesus Christ is Lord, King, Master of every moment of his life. Every thought is shared with Jesus and every moment is lived for Jesus. No decision is taken without first referring it to Jesus for His guidance. A born again Christian lives only for Jesus, not for himself or for sin. He has no pleasure in the world or the things of the world. Since the moment Jesus came into your heart you only have one desire, to please Jesus.

If you do not any desire to be with Jesus , or to pray, there is something seriously wrong with your relationship with Jesus. Only those who love Jesus and want to be with Him, will enter His kingdom. If you never loved Jesus that much that you wanted to be with Him every moment, then you have never met Him. If you did once love him that much but your feelings have disappeared you need to repent, plead for forgiveness, ask Jesus to remove the stone heart in you and replace it with His love.

The only way that we get to know Jesus is through a constant relationship, making ourselves aware of His presence every moment. Make time to be alone with Jesus. Remove all sources of interruption, switch of the cell phone and TV. (A Christian should not own a TV) A good time is at night, when everybody is asleep. Get up and be alone with Jesus. Wait on Him silently. He will speak to you, into your heart. Spend time in His presence as though you were in His mighty presence before His throne. He will reveal Himself to you.

If you don’t have a desire to be with Him now, you never will. You will come to the end of your life and Jesus will say to you: Go away, I never knew you. Make time now, seek Him with all your heart. Get to know Him before it is forever too late. Spend time in His presence every day.

Do you care for Jesus?

Jesus must become more real to us than anything. He holds eveything together by His power. He is intimately involved with every thought we have. He cares. How much do we care for Him? When we realize how self centered we are and how we "cut God out" we become ashamed. If we keep on denying Him and pushing Him out He will also deny us in the end.
We must experience Jesus in every breath we take and consciously live every moment of our our lives to His glory. If we truly love Him we will. We will also dedicate some special time to be intimate with Him, focus on Him, pray, wait, just consciously absorb His presence.

Deception of Church

The entire church system is a wicked deception that exists without God. Church has no connection whatsoever with God or eternal destiny. It is entirely self centered and aimed at gain for the church operators. Church exists totally separate from God, it is in fact opposed to God.

The church system is a worldly system. It does not subject itself to God. Church leadership use doctrine and “biblical principles” to manipulate ignorant believers.

Vast multitudes of naïve believers are drawn into the church system. They believe they are working on their eternal destiny but they are enslaved to a man made system.

The majority of church members have never had any contact with Jesus. It is not the objective of the church to bring people to Jesus. Church enslaves people to itself. It makes people believe that they are serving God by serving church. That is a wicked lie.

Church activities are marketing tools aimed at fulfilling needs created in the minds of people. Church members are brain washed into thinking that these ceremonies are essential to their eternal destiny. Facilities and attractions are put in place to please people. It has nothing to do with God.

All that matters is knowing and following Jesus Christ, the Invisible God. He will say to many people in that day: Go away I never knew you. Jesus Christ is God. Salvation is knowing and being in a constant relationship with Jesus. Jesus is the Head of His true church, the body of Christ. They are His sheep, who know His voice and follow Him, every step of the way, every day of their lives.

If you want to spend eternity in the presence of God in heaven you need to get to know Jesus now, before it is too late. Once you die you face judgment. If you did not get to know Jesus in this life, you will spend eternity away from Him as well.

Seek Jesus now, before it is for ever too late. Don’t go to church, go to Jesus!
