GIFTS AND BLESSINGS ARE FOR THE RIGHTEOUS!

MY GOODNESS DOES NOT GIVE MY CHILDREN A LICENSE TO BE ANYTHING BUT RIGHTEOUS.  DO NOT THINK MY BLESSINGS WILL BE POURED OUT ON THOSE WHO DISHONOR MY NAME OR BREAK MY COMMANDMENTS.  MY BLESSINGS ARE FOR THOSE WHO WALK UPRIGHTLY.  Psalm 84:11  For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly.  ON THE OTHER HAND, I WILL WITHHOLD BLESSINGS FROM THOSE THAT PERSIST IN WALKING IN SIN. IF YOUR HEART CONDEMNS YOU, REMEMBER THAT I AM GREATER THAN YOUR HEART.

MANY SAY, “GOD WILL NOT SEE MY ACTIONS OR HEAR MY ANGRY WORDS BECAUSE HE IS TOO BUSY WITH MORE IMPORTANT MATTERS.” WHEN YOU SIN AGAINST OTHERS YOU SIN AGAINST ME!  YOU BREAK ALL OF MY RULES AND MISTAKENLY THINK YOU ARE GETTING AWAY WITH EVERYTHING YOU DO.  THINK AGAIN!  MAT 12:36  “But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak, they will give account of it in the day of judgment.  37  “For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.” YOU ARE THE ONE DECEIVED IF YOU THINK I CAN BE MOCKED.  GAL 6:7  Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.

I HAVE MANY DISOBEDIENT CHILDREN WHO THINK BECAUSE THEY CALL THEMSELVES BY MY NAME, THAT I AM GOING TO FORGIVE THEIR UNREPENTANT SINS. IF THEY PERSIST IN THEIR SINS, THEY WILL BECOME WELLS WITHOUT MY LIVING WATER. 2PE 2:17  These are wells without water, clouds carried by a tempest, to whom the gloom of darkness is reserved forever. 19  While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into bondage. MANY OF YOU PREACH “LOVE, PEACE, AND HOLINESS,” BUT YOU DO NOT MAINTAIN PEACE AND LOVE IN YOUR WORDS AND ACTIONS BEFORE YOUR FAMILY OR THE WORLD.  YOU HAVE HIDDEN YOUR WORDS, ACTIONS, AND WRONG SPIRIT BEHIND CLOSED DOORS AND YOU THINK I DON’T HEAR OR KNOW. I DO NOT BELIEVE YOUR LIE THAT, “THE DEVIL MADE YOU DO IT OR THAT SOMEONE ELSE’S ATTITUDE OR WORDS CAUSED YOU TO SIN.”  JAM 4:17  Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

IT TAKES TWO TO QUARREL OR HAVE BAD ATTITUDES!  ONE CAN BE GUILTY OF WORDS AND THE OTHER GUILTY WITH ATTITUDES AND A WRONG SPIRIT. THEY ARE BOTH WRONG! I AM THE ONE WHO GAVE YOU FREE CHOICE AND YOU CHOOSE TO DISOBEY ME.  I KNOW ALL THINGS! I CANNOT ANSWER YOUR PRAYERS TO FIX YOUR RELATIONAL PROBLEMS, WHEN THEY STEM FROM YOUR REFUSAL TO ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR OWN PART OF THE PROBLEM.  YOU DO NOT HAVE A HUMBLE AND CONTRITE SPIRIT WHEN YOU REFUSE TO RECOGNIZE YOUR OWN SINS! A WRONG ATTITUDE AND SPIRIT ARE OFTEN SILENT AND HIDDEN. I READ YOUR HEART AND I HAVE WRITTEN YOUR SINS IN MY BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE.

I HAVE TOLD YOU NOT TO JUDGE ANOTHER MAN’S SERVANT (MY SERVANT). IN YOUR SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS YOU THINK YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO JUDGE AND PASS JUDGMENT. YOU SEE CLEARLY THE SINS OF OTHERS, BUT ARE BLIND TO YOUR OWN. IN YOUR MIND AND SPIRIT YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE PERFECT. YOU ARE NEVER GUILTY THEREFORE YOU EXCUSE CONFLICT AND ALLOW IT TO DESTROY PEACE WHERE I HAVE ORDAINED PEACE AND BLESSING. “NO MAN IS PERFECT.” LET THE WORK OF THE LORD BEGIN IN YOU! JAM 4:2  ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not  3  You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures (DESIRES).

YOU KNOW THAT I AM “HOLY” AND YET YOU DO NOT SHOW THE WORLD THAT I AM YOUR FATHER NOR DO YOU BEAR THE FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS. IF YOU DO NOT CORRECT THE SIN IN YOUR OWN LIFE, HOW CAN YOU CORRECT SIN IN THE LIVES OF YOUR CHILDREN OR OTHER PEOPLE? I ORDAIN PEACE AND LOVE IN A MARRIAGE, BUT YOUR BEHAVIOR MUST BE RIGHTEOUS IN ORDER TO BE THE CONDUIT OF MY HEALING SPIRIT AND POWER. YOU GO THROUGH LIFE WITH SATAN WIELDING THE UPPER HAND BECAUSE YOU ALLOW HIM TO WORK WHERE I HAVE GIVEN YOU DOMINION. “SIN” IS ALWAYS AN OPEN DOOR TO SATAN.

IF YOU DO NOT HONOR OR RESPECT YOUR MARITAL VOWS, YOU HAVE BREACHED YOUR COVENANT WITH ME. CLEAN YOUR OWN HOUSE BEFORE YOU TRY TO CLEAN SOMEONE ELSE’S. MANY OF YOU HAVE MARITAL PROBLEMS BECAUSE OF RELATIONAL SIN IN THE HOME.  ATTITUDES AND WRONG SPIRITS SPEAK LOUDLY THROUGH YOUR WORDS AND ACTIONS. YOU ARE PLACING THE FULL BLAME ON YOUR SPOUSE SO YOU CAN EXCUSE YOUR OWN ACTIONS.  YOUR PROBLEM IS THAT YOU ARE BLIND TO YOUR OWN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE TURMOIL AND DYSFUNCTION IN THE FAMILY OR WORKPLACE. JAM 2:10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.  11  For He who said, “Do not commit adultery,” also said, “Do not murder.” Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

MANY OF YOU ARE RAISING YOUR CHILDREN IN A COCOON OF DISRESPECT FOR MY AUTHORITY THROUGH YOUR OWN LAW-BREAKING. IF YOU ARE NOT AFRAID TO BREAK MY LAWS BEFORE OTHERS, THEN THEY WILL DISREGARD MY AUTHORITY AND YOURS. DO YOU EVER ASK ME IF YOU ARE PART OF THE PROBLEM? WHENEVER YOU ARE ASKING ME TO RESTORE RELATIONSHIPS BEGIN BY ASKING ME IF YOU ARE A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR. SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SIN! YOU WONDER WHY REBELLION SURROUNDS YOUR AUTHORITY. YOU CALL OUT TO ME TO FIX THE MESS YOU HELPED CREATE. I CAN ONLY FIX THE PROBLEM THROUGH THE PERSON THAT HUMBLES HIMSELF, REPENTS, AND SEEKS WISDOM.

YOU SAY, “MY CHILDREN ARE NOT HONORING WHAT I TAUGHT THEM.” ACTIONS SPEAK MUCH LOUDER THAN WORDS!  DO YOU RESPECT AND HONOR ME BEFORE YOUR CHILDREN AND YOUR SPOUSE OR DO YOU HONOR ME ONLY WHEN YOU HAVE A NEED AND IT SUITS YOUR PURPOSE? DO YOU TEACH YOUR CHILDREN BY EXAMPLE OR DO YOU SAY, “DO AS I SAY, BUT NOT AS I DO?” ARE YOU DOING THE FUN THINGS IN MY KINGDOM (PREACHING, TEACHING, FELLOWSHIPPING, PRAYING) BUT NEGLECTING THE HARD THINGS SUCH AS SEARCHING YOUR OWN SOUL AND SEEING IF YOU FAILED TO LIVE UP TO MY RIGHTEOUSNESS?  YOU CAN ONLY CORRECT YOUR OWN SINS, YOU CANNOT HAND ME A LIST OF SINS THAT BELONG TO ONE OF MY OTHER SERVANTS. 1PE 3:8  Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous;  9  not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.

IF YOU BREAK MY LAWS YOU RUN THE RISK OF REAPING YOUR SIN IN YOUR FAMILY. WHEN YOU CALL MY NAME, BUT DO NOT LIVE MY RIGHTEOUSNESS, THE WORLD WILL SEE THE THORNS AND BRIERS IN YOUR LIFE AND KNOW THAT YOU HAVE REAPED YOUR SINS.  GAL 6:7 ….. for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.  8  For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

MY CHILDREN, I REQUIRE YOU TO LIVE BY MY SPIRIT AND MY WORD THAT IS WITHIN YOU.  MY SEED WITHIN YOU IS SINLESS AND YOU CANNOT SIN WITH IMPUNITY BECAUSE MY SPIRIT IS A CONSTANT REMINDER OF MY SPIRIT OF LIFE. I REQUIRE MORE FROM YOU THAN TO SIMPLY BEAR MY NAME. I EXPECT YOU TO BEAR MY NATURE AS WELL. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS “ASK” AND MY SPIRIT WILL BEGIN TO CHANGE YOUR NATURE.  FIRST, YOU MUST RECOGNIZE YOUR SIN, REPENT, AND TURN FROM IT. YOU ARE “BORN AGAIN” TO LIVE A LIFE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS PRODUCED BY MY SPIRIT WITHIN YOU AND THE WASHING OF MY WORD. YES, YOU HAVE FREE CHOICE, BUT YOU MUST NOT USE IT AS A LICENSE TO SIN AGAINST ME AND MY HOLINESS. PSA 119:1-3 Blessed are the undefiled in the way, Who walk in the law of the LORD! Blessed are those who keep His testimonies, Who seek Him with the whole heart! They also do no iniquity; They walk in His ways.  PSA 119:8 I will keep Your statutes; Oh, do not forsake me utterly!

PSALM 15:1 ASKS THIS QUESTION, “LORD, who may abide in Your tabernacle? Who may dwell in Your holy hill”? MY WORD DECLARES THE ANSWER! Psalms 15:2-5 He who walks uprightly, And works righteousness, And speaks the truth in his heart; He who does not backbite with his tongue, Nor does evil to his neighbor, Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend; In whose eyes a vile person is despised, But he honors those who fear the LORD; He who swears to his own hurt and does not change; He who does not put out his money at usury, Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

MY CHILDREN, YOU CALL ME FATHER, AND SO I DESIRE TO BE!  I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU TO ANSWER: MAL 1:6  “A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am the Father, where is My honor? And if I am a Master, where is My reverence?” IF YOU CALL ME “FATHER,” THEN YOU CARRY MY NAME BEFORE ALL MEN AND IN EVERY SITUATION. YOUR CONDUCT SPIRITUALLY AND SOCIALLY WILL REFLECT HONOR OR DISHONOR ON MY NAME. DOES YOUR SPIRIT REFLECT MY PRESENCE IN YOUR WORDS AND ACTIONS?  IF YOU NAME MY NAME, THEN YOU MUST BE “HOLY” AS I AM HOLY. YOU ARE NOT YET FULLY PERFECTED, BUT IS YOUR LIFE REFLECTING MY SPIRITUAL FRUIT? MY SPIRIT IS WITHIN YOU TO BE YOUR SOURCE OF WISDOM AND GUIDANCE SO YOUR WORDS AND ACTIONS HONOR MY NAME.  IF YOU ARE BEARING MY LIKENESS PART-TIME, THEN YOU ARE CHOOSING TO LIVE BELOW MY STANDARD AND THE ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES MY FATHERHOOD AFFORDS. ARE YOU HONORING AND REVERING MY ETERNAL PRESENCE WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART, BODY, SOUL, AND SPIRIT? IF YOU ARE, YOU BRING JOY TO MY HEART AND GLORY TO MY KINGDOM.

My prayer: Purify my heart and spirit.  I want to honor and revere you with my whole being!  I want the world to know that I am totally committed to you and your kingdom.  2CO 2:15-16 For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing. To the one we are the aroma of death to death, and to the other the aroma of life to life.  Make me sufficient for my calling!

In Christ’s love, Anita
