One of the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit, mentioned in 1 Corinthians 12, is called: Discerning of Spirits. One of the functions of this gift is not only to see into the spirit realm, but also to receive and understand dreams from God. In the Old Testament Jacob's son, Joseph, had this gift. His brothers, scornfully, called him "that dreamer." Many of us in the Body of Christ also have this gift. In this episode, God, through a dream, gives me a very distinct and clear warning of a condition that could have noxious repercussions for me. Jesus told us that the Spirit of Truth would show us things to come. Halleluyah, Amen. ❤❤❤
In 1 Corinthians chapter 12, God speaks to us through the Apostle Paul about the nine spiritual gifts that have been given to the BODY of CHRIST via the Holy Spirit. In 1982, at the age of 26, I was not aware of these gifts. But I found out in a most miraculous way!
The Lord Jesus Christ is worthy of all of our praises. The Holy Word of God says that everything that has breath shall praise the Lord. The Word also tells us that in the end...every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God, our heavenly Father. And so, in this episode of Christ Our Hope, we will simply praise our Lord Jesus Christ by first praying unto our heavenly Father and then by reading Psalm 145. HALLELUYAH, Praise the Lord Jesus Christ now! Amen. ❤❤❤
In a novel, unprecedented tour de force, the Holy Spirit takes me on a TV journey to do as the Apostle Paul did, where he became as the world but not of the world. I, through the unction of the Holy Spirit, was in unison with the Wild n Out raps, was vibing with the players, even down to keeping up with the raps and rhymes. On Bernie Mack, I, through the Holy Spirit, was given a platform (from my apartment as the show was airing). I gave my life testimony to each actor on the show from the youngest to the eldest. Over 3 episodes of shows, I spoke with philosophers, scientists, mathematicians and the like explaining Biblical principles. I spoke with the teens and their friends giving my testimony of having gone from Harlem to Harvard to Homelessness because of the spirit of crack cocaine. I explained that crack cocaine, like other concoctions made from plants, can have a twisted, wicked spiritual purpose or a God-given and driven purpose depending upon who you invite into the process. Notwithstanding the fact that Bernie Mack is deceased, God allowed him to be an intimate part of the exchange of ideas on his show. These types of interchanges with God's Manifest Presence are going to occur with greater frequency as time goes on. God on Christ Jesus is simply letting us, His children, know that He has always been intimately involved in our lives. And is going to insure greater intimacy as time goes on. ❤❤❤
Will we have itching ears or will we adhere to God's word? Lust...or LOVE, choose this day whom you will serve! Amen.
Mephiboseth, the grandson of King Saul, was dropped by his nurse when he was a child and thus became lame. He had a special need and a woeful disability of his time. Thus, he had a greater need for the compassion of others. King David made a special place for Mephiboseth at the King's table. Today, there are those of us with special needs before the Lord. Together we shall access the Lord's GRACE...Jesus Christ...in meeting these special needs of others.
As each of us walk down the corridors of life, sometimes we feel that God is too far away to exact any meaningful change in our lives. We long to feel His presence. If this is you...then please listen to this podcast, Christ Our Hope. ❤❤❤
God, our Father, will always give His children a confirmation of His word, what we call in the Holy Bible: a second witness. The word says, "I've heard this once, twice I have heard it: this power belongs to God . God has given me a 2nd witness for all of you: Do not despise the day of small things. Don't think that the little that you have is not enough for God to use. Amen.
God wants to empower and strengthen His children to do the works of Christ by the ministration, unction and moving of the Holy through the gift of speaking in tongues. By faith, He wants us to be edified by praying in the Holy Ghost.
This message is for anyone who feels marginalized, downcast, abandoned or left alone. Christ will never leave you nor forsake you. Trust in Him as the Way, the Truth and the Life and He will restore your soul.
Is your spiritual life lacking? Is your spirit-man drained? Are you lackluster in your walk with God? Ask God for both the spiritual gifts of speaking in an unknown tongue and the interpretation of tongues. The first builds you up. The second build up the Vhurch/Body of Christ.
In the world we now live in with its many uncertainties, it is difficult not to fall prey to the depths of depression. God has given us a way out of that emotional luggage...by simply opening up our mouths and praising the Lord Jesus Christ. God inhabits our praises!
God has said in His word, the Holy Bible, to give thanks IN all things. For this is His will for us. So, we give thanks for this past year and we give thanks for this new year, with all the new trials and tribulations therein. We do these things in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Under the dispensation of Grace and God's permissive Will, God, in the name of Jesus Christ, allows me to do unconventional, even foolish things in the furtherance of His Great Commission.
In a miraculous occurrence of events, God had Bishop T.D. Jakes interrupt my cellphone viewing. Through Bishop Jakes' sermon on the Rainmaker, God used Jakes to usher in a new phase and a fresh anointing in my life to carry out God's most urgent will on this earth for His people.
After I committed a heinous crime, I thought it would be best to kill myself. So, I attempted suicide. What followed was truly miraculous.
Even we Christians struggle, indeed, wrestle with certain aspects of our faith. Sometimes we doubt. Sometimes we turn a blind eye to difficult precepts. Sometimes we just can't fathom or understand how certain acts of God transpired. This episode will seek God's help in bridging the gap to understand hard sayings of the Lord.
We always hear about God's plan for us...but is it true? And just what is His plan for me and how do I access it?
Jason, my beloved cousin, the son of my Uncle Fred (R.I.P.), is a follower of the teachings of the nation of gods and earth. He is being deceived by the wicked one. But now...God is revealing Himself to Jason... in the personage of Jesus the Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. Praise God.
Children of the rainbow, you are the beloved of Jesus Christ. In Him is a more excellent way. For, indeed, He is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE.
