Permission To Speak

Gallery 3 Comments

Permission to Speak Freely. I understand it is a military term spoken to a Superior Officer for leave to be candid with said Officer.  (Please correct me if I am wrong.)

I believe there is a Sect of People with such an attitude (a belief system) toward Christians, and I might add, only Christians. To all others such demand is not applied.

I have some good news! We have Permission to Speak Freely from the HIGHEST AUTHORITY in the Universe. Actually more than Permission; rather a privilege and a command.

8 Oh give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name; make known His deeds among the peoples.
9 Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; speak of all His wonders.
10 Glory in His holy name; let the heart of those who seek the Lord be glad.

4 And in that day you will say, “Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name. Make known His deeds among the peoples; Make them remember that His name is exalted.”
5 Praise the Lord in song, for He has done excellent things; Let this be known throughout the earth.

1 Oh give thanks to the Lord, call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples.
2 Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; Speak of all His wonders.
3 Glory in His holy name; Let the heart of those who seek the Lord be glad.

via Ps 105 NASB – The LORD’S Wonderful Works in Behalf – Bible Gateway.

Allow me to call your attention to

MAKE KNOWN HIS DEED AMONG THE PEOPLES.
SPEAK OF ALL HIS WONDERS

Make known His deeds among the peoples;
Make them remember that His name is exalted.”

Let this be known throughout the earth.

We have permission to speak without apology and without PERMISSION from ‘Man’.  Our Father has NOT called us to arrogance. He has NOT called us to obnoxious-ness. He has NOT called us to offensiveness. Albeit to the unrepentant and unbelieving our message and our commission may be offensive; even as was our Savior, JESUS THE CHRIST, perceived offensive by the ‘religious’. That has not changed. Even so we have Permission to Speak Freely.  Moreover we have the privilege and command to do so.   Now is the time.  Would you agree?

One more caution.
One more admonishment to myself and to you.
WAIT before and upon THE LORD for HIM to empower you so you can speak this message with and IN HIS LOVE, knowing you may be perceived as offensive, until the soul who hears chooses to repent and then it shall be the BEST NEWS  s/he has or ever shall hear!

18 When I say to the wicked, ‘You will surely die,’ and you do not warn him or speak out to warn the wicked from his wicked way that he may live, that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will require at your hand.
19 Yet if you have warned the wicked and he does not turn from his wickedness or from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered yourself.

ABBA, seal this in my heart least I forget and at the appointment time come to You with blood on my hands. Let that not be, ABBA. Let it not be. In JESUS name let that not be.

We are accountable,

Forgiveness, Repentance

Right?

I was just discussing a matter with ABBA that I have brought to Him many times and I said, “Why do I keep doing this to myself? I know better. ” His reply was immediate.

James 4:17 New King James Version (NKJV)

17 Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

via James 4:17 NKJV – Therefore, to him who knows to do good – Bible Gateway.

So what was the subject for discussion? Does it matter? And if I don’t say you can plug-in your own. Right?

Thank You, ABBA. I am without excuse but not without Your love, mercy, grace, forgiveness and strength. Neither are they. Thank You, ABBA, in JESUS name. 

Blessings to you Dear Friends    +++

Neediness

Good Monday morning Friends

Praying for souls to see their need to repent and start learning from JESUS how to live.

Matthew 11:28-30 New King James Version (NKJV)

28 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

via Matthew 11:28-30 NKJV – Come to Me, all you who labor and are – Bible Gateway.

ABBA, You know my thoughts this morning; You know all our thoughts. You know our disappointments, our frustrations, stresses, needs, wants and lacks. Our fears for those we love who seem so oblivious to the lives they live. Forgive them, ABBA, and snatch them from the pit I pray. I pray we will come and learn from You JESUS. Learn how You lived in peace and joy and doing good in this hostile world. How You absolutely enjoyed living the GOD-MAN life that You lived for us; even knowing You were called the Man of Sorrows, You had peace, even joy in doing ABBA’s will so we could be free. That’s too big for me to comprehend, LORD, but I accept it. To be like You, JESUS. I am so mindful this morning of the great need that is for us. To be like You. To look at life the way You do. To analyze happenings with You. To take seriously this learning from You and learning to be like You. You know the faces before me this morning, please rescue them from themselves I pray. ABBA, we are all needy people, if only all of us could admit our neediness and learn from You. But, ABBA, I will not be discouraged. You are sovereign. You are GOD of all and Your Arm is not shortened that You cannot save. So I come myself and with all my needy ones and I present us for Your healing rescue in JESUS name.  And I’m not forgetting Israel. America. The election. The Humbling of Your People. Sick ones. Grieving ones. I am trusting You with it all, ABBA, and I am grateful for what You are doing in and for each one.

Think Again

I went visiting in Blog-land this morning. Stopped in to sit a spell with my friend, Leah at The Point. She encouraged me to pop over to Max Lucado’s election site and see what he had to say. So I did. And while I was there I signed the pledge to pray for America specifically for the next 40 days. You can join too.

And while visiting with Max the HOLY SPIRIT had something to say to me. And when I tell you perhaps a light bulb will come on for you too.

”…if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14)

What does that say?
Does it say if the proprietors of the strip joints on Bourbon Street will humble themselves, pray, seek GOD’s FACE, and turn from their wicked ways GOD will heal this land?
Does it say if the homosexuals will?
Does it say if the abortion mill directors will?
Does it say if the inmates will?
Does it say if the politicians will?
Does it say if ‘Hollywood’ will?
Does it say if Obama will?
Does it say if the good ole boys (and girls) will?
Does it even say getting Obama and all his cohorts out of office will heal our land? (Don’t misunderstand. I want him and them out of office more than any persons ever before them!  BUT!)

NO!
No, it doesn’t!
So if you like me have been prone to think if all those listed above would just repent and turn to GOD, He would save America. Think again!

Now I am not saying a move of repentance in the above groups would not bring a wave of glory over this Nation. It would! And I’d be jubilant beyond myself to see it!!

But it is not up to them to save America!

It is up to us! 

ABBA said IF MY PEOPLE.

And who are ABBA’s people?

If you are His you know who you are.

So what’s it going to be, Sister – Brother?

”…if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7:14)

If the Lampstand of America is removed; if America falls; if America is not healed — whose fault will it be?  Who will DADDY GOD hold accountable?

ABBA, thank You. Search my heart and reveal every wicked way in me, and by Your Power and Might it will be removed! ABBA, I want this land to be healed. I do not want to be a stumbling-block to that healing. Forgive me for pointing fingers. Forgive me for my own blindness. Do what only You can do in me I pray for JESUS sake. I pray for my sisters and my brothers to pray, to repent and see You heal this Land.
