I thought this might encourage you in the morning as you wake up and turn on your digital screens.

Lets Go Fishing
People.
People everywhere are too busy with the mundane to give attention to The Supreme – The Creator GOD.
I see people so in love with this world and all that glitters that they are blind to the Beauty of YESHUA, JESUS The CHRIST.
So blind, so dazzled, that IF they see any Jesus at all, it is the false Jesus that has no firmness, no power to transform them from darkness to Light.
People everywhere, breathing, walking, but dead – dead in their sins.
And then there is this.
People.
How can people who say they know and love The Messiah be so flippant and nonchalant about people acting out abominations day after day? Are they walking dead as well while professing they have been made alive?
How can I say that you may ask?
By this dear one.
How can a soul who has been delivered from sin, death, hell, and the grave be so uncommitted as to watch another person sin away their temporal opportunity to circumvent hell, while they say that’s their choice – They have the right to live however they choose – It’s none of my business?
Where’s the burden for the lost?
Where’s the love that is willing to sacrifice comfort to pull another human being from a burning building and CERTAIN death?
ALL who have been redeemed – that is saved from sin, death, hell, and the grave did not our Savior say we would be fishers of men (mankind)?
Do not real fishermen take fishing seriously?
Do they not gather all their equipment, go to the lake, river, creek, or ocean, and cast a line?
Do they not wait patiently?
Do they not coax that fish with all they got?
Do they not yearn to catch a fish?
Get the picture?
I have to come to this conclusion people who do not care what other people do and how they live, desperately need to find out if they themselves have been caught by The Savior?
So I must ask whether there is any movement in your being that is telling you, you need to be delivered from your sins?
If there is I urge you to ask GOD for mercy, get a Bible, and start reading NOW the Gospel according to JOHN. Here let me give you a LINK to get started.
And to all who are certain of your Redeemer and your redemption, will you not at every prompting of Holy Spirit, cast some Bread on the water?
Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. (KJV) Ecclesiastes 11:1
11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth —
it will not return to me unfulfilled;
but it will accomplish what I intend,
and cause to succeed what I sent it to do.” source
(as always read the whole chapter)
One more thing. See this picture?
What do you see?
J and I are curious.
Psalm 145:17-18

Pick a Seat
How do you pick your seat at a general admission event?
Luke 14
I ask because YESHUA had something to say about it.
Do you want to know what He said?
7 When Yeshua noticed how the guests were choosing for themselves the best seats at the table, he told them this parable:
8 “When you are invited by someone to a wedding feast, don’t sit down in the best seat; because if there is someone more important than you who has been invited,
9 the person who invited both of you might come and say to you, ‘Give this man your place.’ Then you will be humiliated as you go to take the least important place.
10 Instead, when you are invited, go and sit in the least important place; so that when the one who invited you comes, he will say to you, ‘Go on up to a better seat.’ Then you will be honored in front of everyone sitting with you.
11 Because everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but everyone who humbles himself will be exalted.” source
How do you read that?
What do you think He was saying to them?
And is there any reason He would say differently to us?
Humility.
It’s an important matter.
And if we refuse to humble ourselves — He knows how to do it!
I looked for the specific verse of Scripture to state it just the way I thought it was written and I discovered it’s the Whole Counsel of GOD that would communicate that to us. One of those verses would be this one.
6 Adonai sustains the humble
but brings the wicked down to the ground. Source Psalm 147
Does that say what I think it says?
Wicked is the opposite of humble?

Zero out of Six
I shared a picture on Facebook. This one. I shared it because such clichés may sound good to the people of this time but they are foolish and dangerous.
1 Listen to your heart.
Absolutely not!
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
2 be true to yourself.
Hmmm.
3 Trust your gut. Are you kidding?!
Proverbs 3:5 “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” King James Version (KJV)
4 feel good about who you are.
Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
5 Happiness is what matters
Really? Let’s see what GOD says.
Leviticus 20:7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.
1 Peter 1:15 But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
1 Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Romans 3:10 “As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:” King James Version (KJV)
Psalms 53:3 “Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.” King James Version (KJV)
As you can see those clichés are powerless to transform a single soul. BUT GOD!
HE can make YOU new. HE can make YOU clean. HE can make YOU holy and by the way, the way to be HAPPY (as everyone wants) only happens when we are HOLY in position with GOD and learning by practice to live HOLY. It’s a life-long process. Yet more than a process, it’s an adventure — like none other!

See Fit?
I read something today and I think I cannot let it pass without talking about it to somebody.
And y’all get to be the somebody.
Aren’t you glad?
For privacy sake, I am not identifying the author but here is the statement:
“They were seeking to worship God in a way they see fit.”
Worship GOD in a way they see fit they say.
GOD is not seeking people to worship Him as they see fit.
No. Nope. Not at all!
True worshippers of GOD, worship Him as HE directs.
There is damnable blindness over people.
John 12:40 “He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.” source
These have believed the lies of the evil one that they can live in habitual sin and in this habitual sin they can offer up acceptable worship to a holy, holy, holy GOD.
It’s a lie, People.
And you know who is the father of lies, don’t you? Check out John 8:44
We can only worship the one and only holy, holy, holy GOD with clean hands and pure hearts. Check it out. Psalm 24: 1-6
Our hands are neither clean nor our hearts pure when we habitually practice sin. It’s not possible, People. Not possible.
How about a list?
Even ONE of these sins, ONE time bars us from Heaven.
Check it out. 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 and Revelation 21:8
No, my friends, we cannot worship GOD, THE GOD of Creation, as we see fit.
We will worship Him as He directs or we are not worshipping Him at all.
Albeit said worship will be received — by Satan, the god of this world.
And who wants to worship a little g god?
Not me!
And with all this is there hope for any of us?
YES!!
His Name is JESUS!
