The Old Rugged Cross

This is the word of the Lord....

I have recognized a stable and functioning portion of my people who have climbed on the Cross of Calvary to understand the strength and endurance of its purpose to my people. I have also seen an ever-growing material need in many of my people that has given me displeasure. The process of contentment in an old wooden cross is a substantial and recognized place that every one of my people need to be close to. It's not a fad to recognize the endurance of the cross, It's a safety net to your lives. There is never a doubt in clinging to its strength and its conditional frame of reference for your everyday needs as well as your special requests.

The cross never fails but those who cling to the condition of the world and the ups and downs of their bank accounts will be sadly lost and forsaken when the elements of the material world begin to shake!

What you hold on to will either give you courage or you will fail the test of perseverance and wash away under the untethered guide of a false hope. Place your hope and confidence only in me and the strength and endurance of the Cross of Calvary that can't and will never give you a false condition of safety.

Storms will always cross your path, but the story of the Cross will give you the distinct understanding and peace of the only one who can take away the discouragement, fear and anxiety and leave you with true and unending hope that you will never be left alone. For the Father of Light will shine a beacon for you to follow, no matter the darkness or pain.

Separation from my presence will bring true grief that can never be overcome, so do not allow the shallow thoughts of self-care to replace the Old Rugged Cross....for its beauty is there to bear the brunt of any and all heavy and weighty floods that will come to my people.

Seek not a replacement to the fulfillment of redemption and resurrection power that can never be revoked. For once and for all my son was crucified for your transgressions and carried your burdens.... what material wealth or substance can replace that?

My personal commentary and scripture: The Lord gave me Jeremiah Chapter 6. A warning for those who are walking in error before God. Look for the old paths and walk there. Hear oh nations of the world for you have rejected me and have grieved me. The Lord has rejected those of all ages who pleasure in the ways of this Worldly life. They are easy prey to Darkness useless and worthless. So repent and follow the old ways again set forth by the written word of God. Let us pray that we will be refined by the Lord as Silver is refined.

Wow.... that's a strong rebuke, but with God All Things Are Possible and He loves us enough to continue to guide and re-direct us again and again even in our deepest Sin! There is always a way OUT as long as you have not given yourself over completely to darkness and turned from the father.

This is A Correction to his people to re-direct your Path and turn to the Cross that stands as an emblem of His victory over Death and Sin, Love and Reconciliation, it draws me Because of its power to release me from my burden of guilt and shame. It redirects me with the attention of my heart... Once I craved for my own glory and independence from God But now, I am directed toward the power and glory of God that draws me to be obedient and wise as I stand at its base looking up at its redemption power. Oh, the Cross of Jesus it washes White as Snow!

If you are in a place today where you are lost...Broken... without direction or maybe just overburdened turn your eyes in the direction where the Lord is pointing to you "come to me my child with your heavy burdens your unanswered questions and lay them at the cross and I will carry them for you!"

My Journey into Truth

This is the word of the Lord....

I have forever been the understanding and response to my people when they ask me about the truth of their life. That is why I am sending you forward to consider and recognize the Purity and the Strength of My Holiness when pursuing life. I want you to only be encouraged by My elements that are already prepared to offer you this Truth! When life offers you a form of Truth, you must be clear to understand it's origin.

I AM the origin of Truth... and Anything outside of My Word and My guidance Must Be Scrutinized and Sanctioned by your prayers, and I and Only I will offer you the correct and confirmed answer to your questions!

All the elements in this world have Joined together to propose a new genre of my voice that does not have the basis of truth behind it, and my people are listening!

Deception is everywhere and if you do not know the true meaning of my guidance and do not have an intimate relationship with me you will be deceived!

The point of this connection can and will give all my people, especially my youth a sinister twist to each and every question they offer it! Remember truth is a question of righteousness or a lie, there is no half-truth that belongs to my word! But the Deceiver is the author of a form of truth! Mixing my presence with that of Man's always gives you a questionable result. So, that is why I am asking you my people to surrender each and every question to the father, and wait for a clear release of the guidance using the biblical reference of seek... ask and wait. And don't grow weary in the wait! There is no word or deed that is not important enough for you to use this protocol to receive your answers! Spiritual guidance is the greatest strength that you can have in this hour. Don't let your ears be trained to the wrong voice.

Even my greatest faithful leaders have been deceived, do not let yourself fall into a sleep and forget what my leading and my providing is for! Your safety and Your care! For I am your greatest need in all things if you would only allow me the space and time to watch over you. Do not grow restless in the wait... for all things are from my hand.

My personal commentary and teaching: The Lord gave me Psalm 23:3 for this word. "He refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake. "He leads me in paths of Righteousness { correct way's } or in other words in His Devine Direction! In John 10:3 NIV "The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out."

We can follow all kinds of things..... In today's world there is more information sources than there has ever been. 58% of people use digital sources for information, how do we know what is the truth in those sources? Is the Lord speaking about AI in this word? After all, it is so easy to find the answer to our questions by merely speaking to a Chat GBT or another AI source. To find the Right Path..... we need to go to His word Psalm 119 talks about blessed are those who's ways are blameless, who walk according to the law of the Lord. Deception is everywhere.... how can you trust that the voice that you are hearing is of God? So many times, we say God told me this.... God told me that....I hear that from so many Christians that it becomes almost a catch phrase! Unless you are taking the words that you hear and using the model of seeking, asking and waiting and referencing the biblical word of God you cannot trust it. We are fickle people full of emotion, fear and pain and full of the world around us that has captured our minds, our hearts, and our attention and separates us from the father! Find and seek time away with the shepherd he is as close as a brother.

IN THE WAITING OBEDIENCE IS FORMED......I myself waited on God's word for over 27 yrs to be released to write and publish this website and the Words that the Lord has given me in this blog. I do not take this gift lightly and I will be held at a higher accountability because of it!

If you have concerns that you cannot hear or what your hearing may not be correct, seek wise counsel... And become familiar with the word of God through a personal and intimate relationship with Him so that you are not deceived. But, most of all understand that the shepherd (Jesus) is standing waiting for you to enter his gates so that he can personally love, care and lead you into all Truth!

My Greatest Attribute to My People

This is the word of the Lord...

My people are so loved by me, and I wish for them to acknowledge me in all that they do and say. There comes a time from my people to be informed of all that takes place to change the look and the feel of their existence. I have garnered this time to be used for the development of a part and partial to an awakening, but not only an awakening of the mind and spirit, but also an awakening of the body of Christ! Why do I say body, because the body will hold the elements of this awakening and the care of my people. I have offered many the ability to acknowledge me, but the contrary attributes of Fame and Fortune have lured them away.

I speak of the decay of my spirit, I want my body to return to the courage of the disciples and to forget the lure of distractions. I will give all my sheep a direct path to my hands without delay. All that they need to do is drop their own power and ideas and let them lay at the foot of the cross. I Am all they need!

The discourse of culture has given so many alternatives to the simple story of my life, that they have built shrines and statues to all that heaven rejected! Nothing is ever new under the sun! What was once will be again. The objective of man-made positions of authority is the hierarchy of hands made to position themselves in front of the glory and power of the risen savior!

Take time to discover my peace, my promises and my directives and close down the substitutions that stand as replacements to the one and only authority.

I can only be the truth and offer my people a glimpse into the peace of my pathway when all around them false representatives stand elegantly perched on man-made structures. Let your eyes and ears be a witness to the cleansing of an inferior and substandard form of godliness. Topple the Asherah Poles and Resurrect the one true God sent to redeem and reform. Command and contend to all that has been set in place blocking the light of my calling. Come to me all who are weak and heavy burden, and I will give you rest!

So says your Lord and Redeemer.

My personal commentary and teaching: The Lord gave me Proverbs chapter 9 for this word. An invitation to Folly or Wisdom we have to choose. Life is full of the seduction of lies. When we wake up every day we have to make the choices. Some choices are easy some are more difficult but even the smallest choice can impact our place in eternity if it's the wrong choice.

Proverbs 9 uses the perspective of an invitation of a woman. Who is this woman... Commentary says she is a seductress of lies. Verse 10 of this Scripture says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and knowledge of the holy one is understanding. verse 4 says let all who are simple come to my house, to those who have no sense she says, come eat my food and drink the wine I have mixed.

I think we have to relate to the choices that we make as food and wine... because we're taking them into our being. They become food to us, either food That nourishes us, or food that destroys us, feeding our sin or rebellion or foolishness. In verse 13 it speaks of a foolish woman and the consequences, oh the consequences.... There are always consequences to every choice.... we might try to justify what we do what we say what we think. Something.....someone.....some circumstance convinced me to say it, do it, think it etc. But we build our own false idols. Yes, with our own hands and our own hearts our own rebellion. We look at the hands of God and we reject his attributes and instead turn our head away from Him and view all that the world can give us. Exactly what Satan tried to do to Jesus showing him all the things and the kingdoms of the world that he could have but he instantly rejected it by quoting the word of God.

In verse 18 of chapter nine this seductive woman takes and deceives, she waits for them and she calls them to death in eternal damnation. Instead of being in the family of God they go to the realm of the dead.

What high places have we built in our lives? Today is the day to place it all at the foot of the cross. And seek God's rest! Matt 11:28 Come to me All who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
