THANK YOU FATHER.
The Gospel leads folks to the water.
Praying that all who go will partake in the knowledge that is freely given.
Hoping that this will be an encouragement for you today, I thank God on behalf of my Lord Jesus who has equipped me for this work.
Don't read or study to sound intelligent, sophisticated, or simply gain the ability to quote something or participate in a conversation.
The Lord has given me the ability to know when someone has studied a matter for them selves or if they are regurgitating something that they themselves don't even understand.
This is dangerous.
It's dangerous for you to go around repeating something because you think it's clever or has a quick witted sound to it or it draws an amen in agreement.
Don't read simply to prepare a sermon, address, message or campaign against others.
Study The Gospel to draw out the spirit and gift of the writer's, making their words the very fabric and makeup of your own soul.
This way you won't fall victim to failure or manipulation.
There have been many books written about how to market, how to concentrate all of your attention on sales and making money, psychology and economics 101, mind over matter,how to control your impulses, how to rise from nothing to something, but none contain the power of the gospel.
Many have borrowed from the gospel and even twisted the meaning for effect but living the life God created for us is all in the book.
The answer to all of the how to's is recorded in scripture.
There is nothing new under the sun, it's just retitled and repacked over and over and over again.
We buy into it like it's pure genius.
There isn't a book that has been written that didn't first have it's seed in Holy Scripture.
The Real Supply is In Christ who is The Word.
The Gospel never begins with instructing you on how to obtain your own vision.
The Gospel begins with teaching you how The Father has obtained His vision for you in and through His Son Jesus Christ.
This day I am called to speak to all of the people that religion and it's routine has written off.
Understand that The Real Supply condemns the religious routines of men.
It is written that a disciple of Christ is to go into all the world and TEACH all nations... baptizing them in the Name of The Father, and of The Son, and of The Holy Ghost;
TEACHING them to observe all things whatsoever JESUS CHRIST has commanded and that He would be with them always, even until the end of the world.
I encourage you to concentrate your study efforts strictly on what Christ taught.
leaving you with this oil for your lamps today:
Jesus is speaking to Nicodemus a Pharisee a ruler of religion over the Jewish people who had been taught and raised in the law of Moses and could not clearly comprehend what Jesus means when He was saying that a man must be born again.
The Lord replies saying at one point:
If I have told you earthly things, and you don't believe them, how will you believe if I tell you of heavenly things?
The Lord had taught Nicodemus of the ease at which a man is born again by water and the spirit yet because tradition had made salvation so complicated and difficult Nicodemus couldn't comprehend the simplicity of what Jesus was saying.
Salvation for Nicodemus had always rested in what Nicodemus could do and what he could give.
But Jesus said,
For God so loved the world, that He sent His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
While folks talk about everything else but this, while people try and make you and them selves The Messiah, I encourage you, no matter who you are or where you are at to get a solid grasp of this truth and to weigh every comment and critic against these words.
The Gospel of John The Baptist.
LOVE Y'ALL :)

I just recently learned how much folks have not known Jesus or what Jesus said. False religion can be a cross on your neck and that doesn't override what the LORD has commanded. Jesus Christ said that a man must be born again. This is not something that I made up. It is written.
