Silence of Disobedience

SILENCE OF DISOBEDIENCE

Silence is golden, or so it has been said. When the Lord is silent with one or many of His children, it is all but golden. The word, the will and the way God has set for us is no secret. It has existed in all ages. God is Love and that never changes. Ordinances, statutes and laws may become fulfilled and void of the necessity of keeping; it was already designed from their inception. Jesus told those concerned about his teaching contrary to the Mosaic Law that He “came not to destroy the law but to fulfill it.” There are supernatural laws mandated by God they require recognition and obeying. When Gods chosen become disobedient in any of His plan based guidelines, they won’t hear his voice until repentance, forgiveness and cleansing is accomplished to His satisfaction; that is by established and published guidelines. Keeping God’s commandments amounts to living a life style that displays LOVE in your life and great LOVE from His throne unto you. Disobedience of any commandment is a refuting of all commandments, even God. If God has become quite in your prayer time, check your calendar of events and locate any shortcoming recorded there; fix it. God looks upon the heart. Nothing is hidden from him. He leaves those who claim a perfect relationship with Him without keeping His commandments. In silence they may listen for His voice, seek His counsel and repent. The length of silence equals the length of discovery and repentance. He is quick to forgive and restore the communication lines between the faltering child and His seat in Heaven. He never leaves a faltering child but it is easy to fall into the trap of unbelief set by the devil.
If silence fails to draw our repentance, sterner measures will be taken. The Lord chastises His children whom He loves. Hebrews: 1 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. 2 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; 4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own willWe, chosen of God, enjoy a great privilege, we are made partakers of Christ, that is, of the Spirit, great Love, graces, and life of Christ. Thus we house a great and concentrated interest in all Christ’s attributes. The same spirit with which Christians set out in the ways of God, they should maintain unto the end; wavering not. Perseverance in faith and obedience is the best evidence of the sincerity of our Love for the Lord and His acceptance of Us; His Love. Hearing the word and gaining faith leads to conversion and maintains salvation, yet, if not hearkened to, it will expose more to the Divine wrath when silence has failed to produce repentance. Our happiness of being partakers of Christ lies within His interaction with us in Loving peace and assurance. Unless we keep our first love spotless so we have complete salvation, we need have no fear of God's wrath and eternal misery! Knowing this should stir us up to persevere ourselves in the life of obedient faith. Let us strive to be among true believers who enter heaven, when all others fail because of unbelief. As our obedience follows according to the power of our faith, so our sins and want of care are according to the prevailing of unbelief in us. Unbelief is a sin producing silence and unless corrected will earn the wrath of God. Hebrews 3: 10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. 11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest. 12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. 14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; Know God, know peace. Amen. 03-07-2020 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing ...

Remember Therefore from Whence Thou art Fallen,,the Wayfarer 3//27/13

 3//27/13 “Remember from Whence Thou art Fallen” “Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revelation 2:5) Today we touch the untouchable book of Revelation, given to us by John of Patmos, through our Savior Jesus Christ himself. This particular message is one I have given before, in places where I knew none of the congregation, and had no idea why God wouldn’t let me preach from any other scripture.  It is probably one of the most important messages for the people of today’s church to hear. It is also probably the hardest for today’s “Christians” here in our country to comprehend, and even harder to accept. Take note of the use of the phrase “ the first works” used by Jesus, we will delve deeply into the meaning of this phrase as we progress through today’s message. First, however let us back...

The Life is More than Meat...the Wayfarer 11/29/15

The Life is More than Meat  11/29/15 22  And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23  The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. (Luke 12:22 &23) Life is indeed more than meat, food, clothing and the things that are constantly demanding the attention of the physical, carnal man, whose concern for himself and those he considers his own, all too often revolve. Life also consists of the inner being, the soul of that man, and those he considers his own, and all others as well with whom he is in contact in the process of what is called living. It is that very essence of life, that eternal soul that holds preeminence and prominence above all physical “needs”. The necessity of a warm coat to stave off the chill of the winter’s cold is undeniably important, without it the physical body, first suffers discomfort, and if ...
