The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master’s manger, but Israel does not know; My people do not understand” (Isaiah 1:3).
Excessive pride and arrogant wisdom make people dishonour God and parents.
Only fools commit sin willingly and knowingly.
“A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the back of a fool” (Proverbs 26:3).
“A rod is for the back of him that is void of understanding” (Proverbs 10:13)
Without proper repentance, we cannot face God. The accuser, Satan, will accuse us and try to demean us before the Lord, as he did regarding Moses in Jude 1:9 and to the High Priest Joshua in Zechariah 3.
Joshua the High Priest was clothed with filthy garments as he stood before the Angel of the Lord, representing his sin and the stained state of his soul. Satan stood there to accuse him, pinpointing every sin, having himself been judged for the pride that originated in him. Yet, men commit sins even worse than these. Too often, we keep crucifying the Lord again.
God asked the prophet Moses to put off his shoes in order to be in His presence. That was his past sins holding on to him. If God wants even our garments to be holy, how much more will He want our souls to be?
We must live at peace with everyone, holding no grudges and forgiving those who have hurt or spoken ill of us. Let us remove all filth from our hearts. God is a righteous judge, and the judgment will be severe for those who know the Lord.
I cried unto the LORD, and He heard my cries. My tears went before Him and touched His heart.
He stretched His nail-pierced arm and wiped my tears, held my hands and raised me, and started walking with me.
Turn to the LORD in moments of grief or weakness, trusting in His personal care and restoring presence.
“Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress” (Psalm 107:19).
Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away the foreskins of your heart.
“Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be My people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you” (Jeremiah 7:23).
Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you.
“Can a maid forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? yet My people have forgotten Me days without number” (Jeremiah 2:32).
The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.
“You will be My witnesses” (Acts 1:8).
Let us deny ungodliness and worldly lusts.
Live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present world.
And wait for the return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
My Children, I love you. I understand that you have truly felt My suffering on this day. I am your Father. I know you. You are mine.
I was wounded in flesh; I was wounded in My heart. I performed miracles for all those who followed Me and amidst the same people I was getting humiliated, paraded naked, beaten and spat, scourged several times. I saw the joy of the Jews when the Roman soldiers were persecuting and torturing me, insulting and mocking me, pushing and pulling me, and accusing Me. I stood as the sinless, pure and Holy Lamb before My Father.
I touched the heart of every soldier who scourged Me. I touched everyone who mocked and spat at Me. They felt guilty for what they did and were repenting for the rest of their lives.
Judas got possessed, therefore he committed suicide. Others who repented wholeheartedly got saved: for they did not know that I am God the Almighty in flesh. I came to save and not to destroy. My saving power is moving on the surface of the earth. My Spirit is moving. To save My children, I can do anything and everything.
My children, I gave My life for you. I can do all things. I shed blood for you. My blood cleanses, My blood protects, My blood delivers, and My blood keeps you holy and perfect. My blood is the true atonement for the redemption of the sins of man.
I am that Lamb: I am the Lamb of Sacrifice. I am the Lamb of God. I am the One and the only Saviour.
Focus on the ministry that I did. Focus on the seriousness with which I did the ministry.
I came to die as the Lamb of sacrifice, the holy Atonement for the remission of sins. I knew that I am the Lamb. I trained Myself. I was tough mentally. Physically strong to walk miles and to carry the cross. Spiritually strong to stamp the Satan on the cross. Be strong mentally, physically and spiritually like Me. I was financially strong; I fed thousands and fed myself. I paid the tax and followed the law of the nation. I was perfect in everything. There was no fault in Me.
Live like Me. Be matured like Me. There must not be any fault in you, come what may. In holiness the mission is accomplished.
I love you My children. You remembered Me, and My suffering. I will never forsake you. I am eternally yours, and you are mine. Be of good cheer.
The Holy Spirit
“Even My own familiar friend in whom I trusted, who ate My bread, has lifted up his heel against Me” (Psalms 41:9).
My children, this day I was betrayed by My own. Yes, My children whom I loved and cared for, betrayed Me. Those whom I fed and guided betrayed Me. I was put to shame. Though I loved and gave everything and revealed everything, they did not realize My love. They were not prepared to be vigilant for Me. Slumber was sweet for them when I was in agony.
I came to do the will of My Father. Being obedient to My Father was much sweeter than the agony that was ahead. Doing the perfect will of My father is what I preferred. I submitted wholly to My Father’s will. The torture was unbearable, which I already knew. During the torment, I was very much in flesh. I was man and not God.
First and foremost, I was wounded by the betrayal of Judas; later, the men who were close to Me fled from Me. They were with Me all through those three years, yet they left Me alone. They were also very much in the flesh and were tempted.
To do the Father’s will, one should have strong willpower. One has to surrender wholly to Him. And be prepared to face anything and everything. I was not forsaken by My Father. He was with Me all through the suffering. He allowed it because it is written that I must die for the redemption of the sins of every man.
Be brave like Me. Be courageous like Me. When you are prepared to do My Father’s will: nothing that is contrary will trouble you. My focus was on the mission, and I accomplished it.
I submitted Myself as the Lamb of Sacrifice. When I came here, I knew that I was to be slaughtered as the Lamb of Sacrifice. I was crucified as the Eternal Sacrifice.
When a lamb is slaughtered, it dies immediately. I was crucified. I was hanging on the cross for six hours.
My children, I had to undergo this in order to save you. I suffered for you so that you need not and will not suffer. You are mine. I am thine.
My children, I love you for you remember My agony and suffering. I understand that you feel it. My blessings are abundant on you.
My children, I have conquered the evil. Be of good cheer.
The Holy Spirit.
The wind blows gently. There is a subtle silence. Floral fragrance around. The sun has almost set and the dusk has begun. Judas is alone. The tempter is by his side. His weakness is known. He hears the sweet gentle voice. He lends his ears and the devil moves into him and dwells in him.
Judas, this world will know you.
Judas, every mother will talk about you.
Judas, your name will spread far and wide.
Judas, you will be known till the end of this world.
Judas, every writer will describe you.
Judas, eyes have not seen, nor ears heard the things prepared for you.
Judas, you will not lack anything.
Judas, you will be like the olive tree.
Judas, you are the candlestick, and you will sit beside me.
Judas, you will be with me eternally.
Judas, I am the king of this world, and you are my son.
Do it!
“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Peter 5:8).
