Set Apart / OMBS7

Set Apart 

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2

As believers, being "set apart" means more than avoiding sin; it's about passionately pursuing God as our greatest joy. This requires separating from anything that distances us from Him. Hannah exemplifies this. She longed not just for a son but for a generation devoted to God. Her son Samuel became a prophet, set apart for a holy calling. Today, God still calls us to shine brightly for His kingdom. Living a life set apart begins in the "secret place" – that quiet time with God in prayer. Hannah poured out her heart to God there, and He answered. This place of solitude nurtures maturity, discernment, and connection to God. We must also examine our lives, identifying areas influenced by the world. Like Samuel, we are called to holiness, aligning our actions with God’s truth. As Paul said in Romans 12:2, "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Eli’s story warns of spiritual apathy. He knew of his sons’ sins but didn’t address them. Living set apart means resisting compromise and actively seeking God, as Hannah did. God desires a generation hungry for holiness, a “Samuel generation” committed to His presence and purpose. When we feel a deep longing in our faith, it’s God calling us closer. Isaiah 55:1 invites, “Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters.” In a world of distractions, God calls us to a higher path. As you reflect, ask, “What areas of my life need to be set apart for God?” Seek Him, resist compromise, and live boldly in His purity. Through lives set apart, God’s glory shines brightest. OMBS7 Bells And Pomegranates The High Priest's robe had golden bells and woven pomegranates around its hemline. Many theories about their symbolism are mostly mystical, contradictory and unprovable. Pomegranates are perceived as a symbol of the righteousness of the Priesthood. The joyous sound of the bells notified outsiders that the High Priest was still alive after entering the Holy of Holies - he had not died. Exodus 28:35 - "And it shall be upon Aaron to minister: and his sound shall be heard when he goeth in unto the holy place before the LORD, and when he cometh out, that he die not." The Consecration Of-The Priesthood The Priesthood was consecrated AFTER the Tabernacle was complete. It took a Tabernacle plan to accomplish the task. The blood sacrifices, unleavened bread, anointing oil, water of washing, garments, ephod, mitre, various offerings - ALL were necessary to make the priests holy. Similarly, the New Testament Church must be assembled before Jesus returns to ascend to His High Priesthood in Jerusalem for 1000 years. Exodus 29:44-45 - "And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office." The Altar Of Incense The Altar of Incense was roughly four-feet-cubed, gold-plated, gold-crowned shittim wood, with horns on the top corners, and rings for the staves with which the priests carried it. It stood before the Veil, immediately outside the Mercy Seat, where the High Priest met God. The Priest offered holy incense morning and evening, perpetually before the Lord. Once annually, a blood atonement was made here. Incense represents the sweet odors of the prayers of the saints. Exodus 30:1 - "...thou shalt make an altar to burn incense upon: of shittim wood shalt thou make it." The Brazen Laver After the Priest sacrificed at the Brazen Altar, he had to wash himself at the Brazen Laver before entering the Holy Place. The laver is a typological and prophetic symbol of water baptism in the New Testament. The altar represents repentance. The laver followed, illustrating our need to be baptized for the remission of our sins after we have repented. Exodus 30:18,20 - "Thou shalt also make a laver of brass, and his foot also of brass, to wash withal... When they go into the tabernacle of the congregation, they shall wash with water, that they die not." The blessings of the Lord our going to overtake her. Angels are coming to your house time to time and watching over her.  Angels are taking your prayers to heaven.  The blessings will overtake you.

The Veil

The Veil prevented anyone from entering the Most Holy Place where the Ark of the Covenant was. The Veil was blue, purple and scarlet. Blue is the color of water, and red is the color of blood. Purple is the color of royalty - kingship. By the blood of Calvary and the water of baptism, the Son of Man, prince of peace, Jesus, was exalted to royalty - King of Kings.

Exodus 26:31 - "And thou shalt make a vail of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen of cunning work: with cherubims shall it be made."

The Brazen Altar 

Everything that happened in the Tabernacle began at the Brazen Altar. Animals were killed and burned. Since the Garden of Eden, God has required death for sin. At the altar, the debt began to be paid, the blood was shed, and remission of sins became possible. Without shedding blood, there can be no remission for sins. This animal blood appeased God until the perfect Lamb was slain - Jesus Christ. ALL remission of sins ultimately comes by HIS blood. 

Exodus 27:1,8 - "And thou shalt make an altar... as it was shewed thee in the mount, so shall they make it."

The Court

The Tabernacle plan included only one entrance, and that was on the east side. Nearly all the pagan religions worshiped the sun god, facing east. God made them face west when they entered the Tabernacle. The single entrance typifies Jesus Christ, the ONLY door of our salvation. There is salvation in no other. We must turn our backs on all other gods.

Exodus 27:13-14 - "...the breadth of the court on the east side eastward shall be fifty cubits. The hangings of one side of the gate shall be fifteen cubits: their pillars three, and their sockets three."

The Priests' Holy Garments

A priest is an intercessor between God and men. From its inception, the priesthood was the highest office a man could occupy. Accordingly, God instructed Moses to dress them appropriately. Holy garments would be glorious and beautiful. Herein is a great precept. Our appearance should reflect our value. The world would have us "dumb down," dressing grungy, sloppily, like worthless creatures. God would have us look holy, glorious, and beautiful. Are you a godly person? Dress the part!

Exodus 28:2 - "And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty."

During a service: I made a the statement ‘the Lord, was in the service. That He would take all the metal out of peoples bodies.’ His presence came and He began to remove all the problems from people.

Prescription for Life/ OMBS7

Prescription for Life

34 And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. 35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. Mark 8:34-35,King James Bible

When Jesus said those words, He wasn't just giving us a prescription for getting to heaven. He was telling us how to live a superior life right here on earth. You see, there's a high life that we can live right here, right now. But to get in on it, we have to lay down the way of life that most of us are accustomed to. We may have to let go of the very things we've been trying so hard to latch on to. We have to set our hearts instead on doing what God wants us to do. That's what Jesus did. He didn't live His life for Himself. He lived it completely as God. He did only what the Father told Him to do—and He lived in total victory. It's time to realize that getting born again is not something we do just to miss hell. Our purpose is to please God—to lay down our lives in order to fulfill His desires. To be His special possessions in the earth and to do whatever He tells us to do. Our top priority is to give ourselves to Him and to live in communication with Him. To spend enough time with Him that we can hear His voice and respond in obedience. Only when we do that will we be genuinely fulfilled. Only when we do that will we be able to live the high life we've been longing for.

Moses The Intercessor After meeting God in Sinai, Moses found Israel riotously worshipping a Golden Calf. God started to utterly destroy them, offering to make Moses a great nation instead. But Moses wanted to be blotted out of the Book of Life if God would not save Israel. That was dramatic intercession! Exodus 32:31-32 - "Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold. Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written." Forbidden Ornaments This is one of the most overlooked and neglected items in the Bible. Aaron and the Children of Israel infuriated God Almighty for creating and worshipping the Golden Calf. It all began with the jewelry they brought from Egypt. After that incident, God utterly hated jewelry on His people. He demanded that they give it to Him. Read my essay on the topic, entitled "Ornaments of Jewelry," and you will see that God spoke to the issue all throughout the Bible. Exodus 33:6 - "And the Children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Horeb." Face To Face With God God punished Israel for worshipping the Golden Calf. Moses' intercession literally saved their lives. Immediately, God again promised to give them a land flowing with milk and honey. But the people were unmoved. Ultimately, it was Moses' profound relationship with God that salvaged the entire project. Israel could easily see that when Moses entered the Tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and the voice of God spoke to Moses. Remember, whole nations can depend on one man's prayers. Exodus 33:11 - "And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend." Show Me Thy Glory God is invisible. Three times, the Bible says, "No man hath seen God at any time." When Moses asked to see God's glory, God showed him His "back parts." That could not possibly mean God's back, buttocks or thighs. He is invisible. Moses saw God's past goodness - the Genesis story revealed! 1400 years later, Moses saw the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ on the Mount of Transfiguration. Exodus 33:23 - "I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen."

Baptism in Jesus Christ name 

The Gospel Was Promised By The Prophets

Since Paul systematically went to the Jews first in every city, he was extremely well-versed in showing how that Christ was the fulfillment of the Old Testament Law and Prophets. Every Messianic prophecy pointed to Jesus Christ: the Tabernacle plan, the Temple, its artifacts and furnishings, the sacrifices, the priesthood, the Messianic lineage, and so much more. 

Romans 1:1-2 - "separated unto the gospel of God, (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the holy scriptures,) Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh."

Sonship Is Declared By The Spirit Of Holiness

Paul declared himself to be "a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God." That speaks of 100% commitment. Paul had no other identity, no other agenda, and no other interests than Jesus Christ and the ministry of His Gospel. Servant - Called - Separated - because everything that has to do with Jesus and the Gospel is holy and separated. Christ is holy. Is your identity holy? Your agenda? Your interests? Can the Spirit of Holiness declare you?

Romans 1:4 - "Declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness."

Pray For The Opportunity To Minister To Others

Paul greeted the Romans with a blessing of grace and peace, and with thanksgiving, "that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world." Paul declared his fervent prayers for them. "Without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; [that] I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you." 

Romans 1:11-12 - "For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established; ...that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me."

I Am A Debtor

Paul desperately wanted to minister to everyone he possibly could. He wanted to impart unto the Romans some spiritual gift so they would be established. He also wanted "some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles." He confessed, "I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise." Would God that an army of men would rise up today with such a burden.

Romans 1:15 - "So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also."

I Am Not Ashamed Of The Gospel

Here is a man with a fire shut up in his bones. Like Jeremiah, Paul could not keep silent. He knew no reluctance, no inhibition, no reserve. The Gospel burned in him like a furnace. He knew that the hope of eternal life for every man was sealed up in it. I feel that fire, too. Do you? 

Romans 1:15-16 - "I am ready to preach the gospel ...For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek."

GOD HEALS FLAT FEET OF THIS TEACHER

MIRACLE EAR 

Be sure to watch the Testimony's of these dear people 

The Ark Of The Covenant The first item God commissioned for the Tabernacle was the Ark of the Covenant. Built of shittim wood, roughly about 4ft-L x 3ft-W x 3ft-H, overlaid with and crowned with gold. Staves permanently slid through rings on four corners for carrying by priests. The "testimony" (Ten Commandments) inside was covered by a beaten-golden "Mercy Seat" with two winged cherubims facing each other. It prefigured Jesus Christ; the embodiment and mouthpiece of everything divine. Exodus 25:22 - "...there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat." The Table Of Shewbread The second item prescribed for the Tabernacle was the Table of Shewbread, made of shittim wood and overlaid and crowned with gold. It had rings and staves so the priests could carry it when they traveled. It sat past the altar, before the golden candlestick, and ALWAYS contained a loaf of bread for each tribe of Israel. It foreshadowed Jesus Christ, the Bread of Life. God wanted us to know that there is always bread on His table. Hungry? Jesus will fill you. Exodus 25:30 - "And thou shalt set upon the table shewbread before me alway." The Golden Candlestick Jews call it the Menorah. It was a beaten-gold Candlestick with seven branches. Jesus is the Light of the World. The oil that burned in the light represents the Holy Ghost of Jesus Christ burning in the seven original New Testament Churches. Now, His Spirit fills everyone who will receive it. The Candlestick was to burn continuously. This little light of mine, I'm going to let it shine.  Exodus 25:37 - "Thou shalt make the seven lamps thereof: and they shall light the lamps thereof, that they may give light over against it." The Tabernacle Curtains And Boards God told Moses every detail of the Tabernacle, including the number of boards with their measurements, wood type, and overlayments. He defined all the curtains and coverings by material, color and measurement, and how they were to be placed. The principal colors were blue, purple and scarlet. The metals were gold and silver. The skins were goat and badger. It is inconceivable that a God of such detail doesn't care about the minutiae of our lives. Exodus 26:30 - "And thou shalt rear up the Tabernacle according to the fashion thereof which was shewed thee in the mount." We pray that you will send this too a friend.  Taste and See the Lord is Good

A Word About Angels / OMBS7

A Word About Angels

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. - Psalm 91:11

It’s time to set the record straight. Angels are not kid stuff. They’re not little fat babies with long blonde hair and bows and arrows in their hands. Angels are big, strong warriors. They are real. They are powerful. And if you are a believer, they are a vital part of your life. We see examples of what angels can do all through the Bible. For instance, when the children of Israel were fleeing from Egypt with Pharaoh’s army hot on their heels, the Bible tells us that suddenly the wheels on the Egyptians’ chariots got fouled up. They just quit rolling! Who do you think caused that? The angels, of course! They haven’t retired since then either. Angels are at work today just as they’ve always been. A few years ago in one of Israel’s major wars, the enemy had their guns trained on Israeli cities. Those guns were the finest military equipment money could buy. They had a range of at least 20 miles and were equipped with electronic gun sights for accuracy. But something very odd happened. Every time they fired those guns at the Israelis, they either overshot or fell far short of their targets. We know there was nothing wrong with the guns because later the Israelis captured them and fired them back at the enemy with perfect success. What happened? Angels, that’s what! My friend, that isn’t just a fairy tale. That’s a real-life example of the involvement of angels in the lives of God’s people today. And, if you’re a child of God, you have a right to expect God’s angels to do the same kind of things for you. So, start expecting! Say, “Thank You, heavenly Father, for giving Your angels charge over me to keep me in all my ways.” Once you’ve spoken that word of faith, stand fast. Don’t fear. Don’t waver. Just be patient and keep believing, and you will surely see the salvation of the Lord.

The Manna When God led the Children of Israel from Egypt into the wilderness, He fed them miraculously with manna. Manna means "what is it?" It was nutritious bread sent by God from heaven daily to over a million people for forty years. It tasted like "wafers made with honey" (Exodus 16:31). God instructed them to gather only one day's supply, except on the sixth day, they could gather extra for the Sabbath. Otherwise, it always spoiled overnight. Never doubt God's ability to meet your needs. Exodus 16:23 - "They gathered manna every morning." Gluttony Punished God would surely have fed Israel promptly enough if they had not been so quick to murmur. But they would not restrain themselves. So God sent manna, with a commandment not to gather more than needed - no hoarding. Not surprisingly, some people could not resist over-indulging. God surprised them by rotting the excess. God disapproves of too much, too fast in just about every area of life. Exodus 16:20 - "Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them." Pray When Under Threat A lot has been said about Moses getting water out of a rock at Rephidim. But we seldom contemplate his circumstances. The people were "chiding" with Moses - that means "grappling," "tossing," "wrangling," "contending," with the poor guy. Most every man of God who ever lived has faced the wrath of people he was called to lead. But God legitimizes His anointed in inconceivable ways. Let the skeptics explain water out of a rock. Exodus 17:4 - "And Moses cried unto the LORD, saying, What shall I do unto this people? they be almost ready to stone me." The Amalekites This verse has enormous significance. The Amalekites declared war on Israel in the wilderness. Joshua led the defense. Moses stood on a nearby hill while Aaron and Hur held his hands up to God. Joshua won a great victory. God declared war on these people until the end of time. Saul was stripped of his kingship for failing to annihilate them. Samuel killed their king, Agag. David fought them. Hezekiah fought them. Esther defeated Haman, an Agagite (Amalekite). These descendants of Esau are perennial enemies of Israel. Exodus 17:8 - "Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim."

Spiritual Armor for Spiritual War/ OMBS7

‌ Spiritual Armor for Spiritual War For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. - Ephesians 6:12 Unfortunately most of us don’t know the first thing about fighting the kind of war this scripture refers to. For, as Ephesians 6:10-12 says, it’s not a battle of flesh and blood, but of the spirit. Most believers are so earthly minded (or carnally minded) that they never even realize where the enemy’s attacks are actually coming from. They blame circumstances and people, and they waste their energy fighting natural conditions instead of supernatural causes. We need to wake up to the warfare that’s going on in the heavenly realm! We can get a glimpse of it in Daniel 10:12-20. There, we find that Daniel had been fasting and praying for 21 days, awaiting a word from the Lord. Then an angel appeared to him with the answer. What took him so long? He was fighting the enemy in the heavens. That confuses some people. They say, “Devils fighting in heaven? I thought God reigned in heaven!” What they don’t understand is that the Bible teaches there are three different areas called heaven: 1. The heaven where God resides 2. The stellar heavens (what we call “outer space”) 3. The heavens around this earth (the atmosphere surrounding this planet) This last heaven is where spiritual war takes place. (That’s why Ephesians 2:2 calls Satan “the prince of the power of the air.”) “The air” is where wicked spirits operate. From there, they attempt to rule the nations to which they’ve been assigned. And rule them they will unless the prayers of God’s people keep them from it. God has an army marching in this land. If we band together, we can prevent the wickedness in high places from ruling our nation. The time has come for us, as believers, to pray as believers. So, put on your full armor and take your place in the ranks of the faithful in intercession for our country and the nations of the world!

We want to thank Everyone that’s loves the Lord.

First Commandment - No Other Gods

What did any other god ever do for you? The God who created everything, including YOU and ME, deserves all the glory. It is a shame that He has to tell us not to worship anybody else. You can call it a commandment if you want, but it begs to be appreciated as a stark reality. There ARE no other gods. Whoever created this universe OWNS it. Worshipping anything else is just plain stupid. That may not be grammatically correct, but it is theologically incontrovertible.

Exodus 20:3 - "Thou shalt have no other gods before me."

Second Commandment - No Idolatry

Idolatry existed long before Abraham and his descendants worshipped the one, true God. But God will not share His glory with any other. Certainly, nothing man-made, whether carved, molten (molded) or beaten, could ever hear, and know, and respond like the true and living God.

Exodus 20:4-6 - "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them."

Third Commandment - Keep His Name Holy

God demands our respect. He is holy, even beyond our wildest imaginations. He will not tolerate disrespect, sacrilege, mockery, or any kind of insult. God is not mocked. This third commandment instructs us to protect the sacredness of God's name. It is NOT a swear word, nor to be used in making oaths. Be safe. Give maximum honor to the Lord's name. 

Exodus 20:7 - "Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain."

Fourth Commandment - Sabbath

What a brilliant idea! One day off every week! God thought of it first. Rest! Every person needs rest. This is the only one of the Ten Commandments not taught in the New Testament, because God gives believers rest every day when the Comforter comes in - the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. (See Isaiah 28:11-12.)

Exodus 20:8-11 - "Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work."

Obey Today/OMBS7

‌ Obey Today He who, being often reproved, hardens his neck shall suddenly be destroyed—and that without remedy. - Proverbs 29:1, The Amplified Bible Some people have the mistaken idea that when the direction of the Holy Spirit comes to them, they can just ignore it for a while if they want to and then obey Him later in their own good time. They think to themselves, I know what I'm doing is wrong. I know my lifestyle isn't right, but I'm just going to do it a while longer. Then I'll get things straightened out with the Lord. Let me warn you, that is an extremely dangerous thing to do. Because God says that when you refuse His guidance, your heart grows hard. It's not that God's grace doesn't extend to you anymore. It's not that He wouldn't forgive you if you turned to Him. It's just that sin will callous your heart to the point where you can't hear Him calling. That's what happened to the children of Israel. God would tell them what to do and they wouldn't do it. When He was trying to bring them into the Promised Land and He told them to go in and possess it, they flatly refused. Of course, they thought they had good reasons for refusing. They were so full of fear and unbelief that they actually thought if they did what God said, they'd be destroyed. But, you know, it doesn't matter how good your reasons are for disobeying God. That disobedience will still cost you. It will still harden your heart. The children of Israel ignored God's leading so often that He finally just sent them into the wilderness. They were so stiff-necked, He couldn't lead them into the blessings He'd planned for them, and He had to just let them wander around until all but two of them had died. He had to raise up a whole new generation of softer-hearted people before He could take them into the land. Take a lesson from that and don't play around with sin. When God tells you what you need to do, don't put Him off thinking it will be easier to do it later. It won't be. It will be harder! When the Spirit of God comes to correct you, follow His instructions—and follow them quickly. Keep your heart tender. Obey the Lord!

We Love You and Are Praying!

Because of our great God, together we are walking in freedom. Together, we are sharing the love of God. Together, we are carrying out the divine vision God has for us.

PRAYER - "In Nothing Terrified By Your Adversaries"

Why turn to panic-stricken, hyperactive prayer when adversity comes? Relax! You cannot eliminate suffering from the Christian life. "All that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution," 2 Timothy 3:12. Paul's sufferings are a perfect example. Suffering is an ordained token of salvation. God is still with you!

Philippians 1:28 - "In nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God. For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake."

PRINCIPAL - "False Brethren Brought In Unawares"

For the first time since his conversion seventeen years earlier, Paul made an open visit to Jerusalem to meet with fellow Apostles and brethren. Barnabas and Titus accompanied him for that watershed event. Paul freely discussed his ministry to the Gentiles with many brethren. Some false brethren were brought to the meetings, who tried to create controversy about circumcision. Paul categorically ignored them. You must learn to shut out the voices of unbelievers in the Church.

Galatians 2:5 - "To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you."

PRINCIPLE - "I Will Very Gladly Spend And Be Spent For You"

An Apostle is a rare breed. (Count all the Apostles you know.) But ANY truly consecrated Christian is a rare breed. Paul exemplified both. He was willing to pay any price, even willing to die, to get the Gospel message to as many as possible. "I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children." Are you willing to be totally spent? Totally?

2 Corinthians 12:15 - "I will very gladly spend and be spent for you."

PROPHECY - "The Scriptures Foresaw Justification Through Faith"

The theology of Dispensationalism names eight stages of human relationships with God. INNOCENCE in the Garden. CONSCIENCE until the Great Flood. HUMAN GOVERNMENT until Abraham. PROMISE until Moses. LAW until Christ. GRACE BY FAITH until THE MILLENNIAL KINGDOM of Christ, leading to the ETERNAL KINGDOM of Heaven. God always planned this day of Grace through Faith in Christ. Jesus paid off the Law by dying for sinners. Believe and obey the Gospel. 

Galatians 3:8 - "The scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed."

His Still Small Voice / OMBS7

His Still Small Voice

But the anointing which ye have received of [God] abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth. - 1 John 2:27

Have you ever noticed that you are sometimes aware of certain things even before you know what the Word says about them? That’s because the Holy Spirit is inside you teaching you the truth. He speaks into your spirit. Then your spirit relays His promptings to your mind. Suddenly, you’ll have a new thought. I need to forgive that person, you’ll think, or I need to stop saying those unkind things. As you become more aware of the Spirit of God in your everyday affairs, you’ll be quicker to hear and obey those promptings. You’ll actually get in the habit of allowing the Spirit of Truth to reveal the will of God to you. And, believe me, that’s one habit God wants you to have! One of the first things that the Spirit said to me when I began to listen to His promptings was, Spend more time in prayer. As I obeyed, I began to be impressed to spend at least one hour a day in prayer. After I’d begun to do that, He revealed it to me in His Word (Matthew 26:40). Since then, I have talked with people from all over the world who are hearing the same thing. Believers everywhere are hearing the Spirit of God direct them to more prayer. God hasn’t given the Holy Spirit to just a few special Christians. He’s given Him to all of us. And if we’ll just learn to be sensitive to His voice, He’ll guide us into all truth! Think about how different your life would be if you knew the truth of God about every situation! Doesn’t that just make you want to listen to your spirit? Doesn’t it make you want to be on the keen edge of what God is saying? Start tuning your ear to His still, small voice within you. Honor Him and welcome His guidance into your everyday affairs. Listen for His promptings and be quick to obey. He’s ready to speak to you             The Bible serves as an unwavering source of wisdom, inspiring faith, and revealing profound truths that have left an indelible mark on human history.    We are excited for you to join tens of thousands of people around the world and deepen your understanding of the Bible!                  You don't have to! Feel free to initiate a chat with us right now, and we'll be more than happy to answer any questions you may have.                                                                                  God Bless You

PRAYER - "Having Two Good, But Conflicting Desires"

Sometimes, you want two things that cannot be had simultaneously. Neither is bad, but you must choose. "I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better." Heaven holds the ultimate allure, but we want to save our loved ones. Heaven can wait. "Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needful for you." Pray for longevity. Expect it. God will call you when He is ready.

Philippians 1:25 - "Having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy."

PRINCIPAL - "The Faceless Preacher"

When God called Paul into the ministry, he "conferred not with flesh and blood." Paul's relationship with Jesus was profound. He did not go to Jerusalem to consult the apostles. For three years, he was essentially isolated in Arabia, then in Damascus. Afterward, he spent fifteen days with Peter in Jerusalem. So, for about seventeen years, the great Apostle was unknown by face in Israel. You do not need recognition. Serve God anonymously, if necessary.

Galatians 1:21-22 - "Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia; And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea."

PRINCIPLE - "Suffer Gladly, That The Power Of Christ May Rest On You"

Moses preferred to suffer affliction as an Israelite rather than inherit Egypt's luxuries. He must have believed that the power of God that is manifested while we do His will is worth more than all the world's wealth. Paul understood that. He actually rejoiced about the infirmities he suffered as he did the will of God. He saw how God works mightily in behalf of those who suffer for Him. Thank God for your infirmities! Rejoice!

2 Corinthians 12:9: "Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me."

PROPHECY - "The Gospel Was Committed To Peter And To Paul"

There are no mistakes with God, and no accidents in His Kingdom. Peter was an eyewitness to the Savior, and was visited repeatedly by angels. Paul was visited by the Lord from Heaven, and angels also appeared to him. In the eternal plan of God, these two had been ordained from the foundation of the earth. Paul said, "the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter."

Galatians 2:8 - "He that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles."

Real Intercession/ OMBS7

Real Intercession

And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor. - Isaiah 59:16

When someone hurts us, our natural human reaction is to strike back...to ask God to clobber them. But that’s not God’s way. I realized that one time when some relatives of mine got robbed. I was praying about the situation and puzzling over it. “Lord,” I began to ask, “why did You let that happen? Why didn’t You just knock that thief over the head when he tried to do that?” Suddenly, God enabled me to back up from that situation and look at it with spiritual, instead of just purely natural, eyes. When I did that, I knew the answer to my question almost as quickly as I had asked it. It was because of His mercy. God has great, great mercy. Not just for me and my family but for others too. Think about that next time someone does you wrong. Instead of asking God to knock that person in the head, like I did, consider the fact that—as ornery as he may be—he may well have a grandmother somewhere who’s praying for him to be saved. Stop and remember that God loved him enough to die for him, that He’s longing to pardon—not punish him. Then you can begin to pray for him instead of against him, uniting yourself with his grandmother (or anyone else who happens to be praying for him). You can go to the Lord for mercy for him and you can go up against the devil on his behalf. That’s real intercession and it throws the forces of darkness into total confusion. They have absolutely no defense against it. The Lord is looking for people who are bold enough, committed enough to do that. Dare to be one of them. When you’re tempted to clobber someone, dare to change his life instead. This Is The Finger Of God Pharaoh promised to let Israel go free if Moses took away the frogs. Moses cried out to God because of the frogs, and God immediately killed the frogs in the houses, villages and fields. They piled them up until the whole land stank. But Pharaoh reneged, so God sent another plague by Moses - FLIES! Pharaoh's magicians tried to copy the miracle to appease Pharaoh, but could not. Ultimately, NOBODY will ever beat God at His game. Exodus 8:19 - "Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, This is the finger of God." That Nation Will I Judge When God visited Abraham during the horror of great darkness, Israel's deliverance from Egypt was prophesied. "They shall afflict them four hundred years; and also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge; and afterward shall they come out with great substance." Moses executed ten plagues on Egypt, and the Children of Israel walked out with their jewels. Exodus 9:14 - "For I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the earth." Intreat The Lord God sent ten horrifying plagues upon Egypt. Waters turned to blood. Frogs. Lice. Flies. Diseased livestock. Boils on men and beasts. Hail mixed with fire. Locusts. Black darkness. Death of all firstborn. Little by little, Pharaoh seemed to be humbling. He begged Moses to pray for him. But every time, Pharaoh double-crossed Moses. Do you nullify the force of your prayers by returning to sin? Exodus 9:28 - "Intreat the LORD (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer." Phony Promises What do you call a person who promises to do good as long as there is an impending threat of severe punishment, but as soon as they think they can get by with mischief, they quickly break their promises and return to their old tricks? A con-man? A politician? Pharaoh was more. He was a cold-blooded rebel against God. Sounds like many in our generation. Exodus 9:34 - "And when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the thunders were ceased, he sinned yet more, and hardened his heart, he and his servants."

Change the Image / OMBS7

Change the Image

For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. - Romans 8:24-25

According to Romans, hope is actually looking at something you can’t see. How do you do that? You do it by looking at the promises of God in the Word until with your inner eyes—the eyes of your spirit—a picture is formed. For example, one of the hardest things I ever had to do was face the fact that the inner image I had of myself physically was fat. It didn’t matter how hard I tried to change, it wouldn’t go away. I was always on a diet. I must have lost (and regained) hundreds of pounds over the years. I finally had to admit that as long as my inner image of myself was fat, my outer self was going to match it. Remember, it’s faith that changes things, and without the inner image of hope, faith cannot work. So I decided to fast for seven days. I searched my Bible for every scripture I could find on food and eating and I found many. I meditated on every one of those scriptures and prayed in the spirit for seven full days. What was I doing? I was laying hold on a different inner image. This is not something you can do overnight. It takes time. Especially if the inner image you’re changing has been there for years. But you can do it. Go to the Word of God today and begin to change the images inside you. Change them from images of despair to images of hope. Get a blueprint in your heart and your faith will build on it!.  We are praying for you. This man who was crippled is now gone to the Philippines preaching with new feet.

When Darkness Shines When God sent darkness upon Egypt by Moses, the Egyptians could not see each other for days. But the Jews could see! Crossing the Red Sea, a cloud darkened Pharaoh's army, but it shone light on Israel! In the world's darkest hour, God's people have light! Exodus 10:23 - "They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the Children of Israel had light in their dwellings." Exodus 14:20 - "It was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these." I Will See Thy Face No More Back in Noah's day, God said that His Spirit would not always strive with man. Sometimes, God decides that He will not waste any more time with certain people. That is a frightening reality. After Pharaoh played diabolical games with Moses, God said, in effect, "that's all - no more!" God judged all the firstborn of Egypt. Pharaoh's son died. Egypt suffered profound judgment. Beware, lest YOU cross the point of no return. Exodus 10:29 - "And Moses said, Thou hast spoken well, I will see thy face again no more." No Death Angel Maybe you heard somewhere that a death angel passed through Egypt, killing all the firstborn. But you heard wrong. God did not send a death angel. HE came down! "And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle," (Exodus 12:29). Exodus 11:4 - "And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will I go out into the midst of Egypt." Passover Passover marks the BIRTH of the nation of Israel. Until that fateful night, the Children of Israel were slaves to Pharaoh in Egypt. God judged Egypt, but Israel was saved by the blood of the lamb they sacrificed that night. Passover foreshadowed Jesus' saving blood which was shed 1400 years later.  Exodus 12:13 - "And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt."
