102 | what does this mean to us? | 1 Cor 11:32 | mbooker | 62673 | ||
Good Afternoon SirPent You said 'Paul then says in this verse that this “sickness” is a God’s way of disciplining those people.' I do not understand what you mean. vv 29-30 explain why many are weak and sickly and why many sleep. Are you saying God punishes those that eat and drink unworthy with sickness? Abba Father Bless you... Meredith |

105 | No healing? why? | 2 Cor 1:4 | mbooker | 73066 | ||
inmyheart Jehovah-Rapha is one of my favorite names of Abba Father. I believe with all my heart that He is 'the LORD who heals' back in Exodus and I believe that He is still Jehovah-Raphe today! Bless His name!! As I was reading your post, I thought of John 10:10 and low and behold you end your post with it. Yes it is Satan, our enemy and adversary, that steals, kills and destroys. If it steals, kills or destroys, I give it to satan. But thanks be to our Father in heaven who sent Jesus that we may have life and have life more abundantly! Praise the great I AM!!! May you always know that you have been blessed with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places Your Sister in Christ Meredith |

Hi Brother John :) You’re pulling me in. You’re pulling me in. LOL I thought we had parted company on this particular subject. :) But alas… I’m sitting here smiling as I read your post, then I begin to type… I apologize if I left the impression that I believe that Abba Father will give us something that is not in His will. I believe what 1 John 5:13-15 says: I write this to you who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) the name of the Son of God [in the peculiar services and blessings conferred by Him on men], so that you may know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have life, yes, eternal life. And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us. And if (since) we [positively] know that He listens to us in whatever we ask, we also know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted us as our present possessions] the requests made of Him. Thus when Jesus said "For this reason I am telling you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe (trust and be confident) that it is granted to you, and you will [get it].” Mark 11:24, I believe that the asking in this verse has to be in accordance with Father’s will. Also, James tells us about asking amiss that we may consume it upon our lusts (4:3). So when we ask, we have to ask properly (in accordance with His will). I agree with you. I do not believe that God would give us something that would cause us harm. Is it scriptural for me to pray for a Rolls Royce or a Mansion in Malibu? I believe that if you 1. Delight thyself also in the LORD: 2. Then… he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Ps 37:4 Now, I understand that Ps 37:4 says nothing about praying but… if you desire Rolls Royce or a Mansion in Malibu and you have delighted yourself in the Lord, I believe you will get it(them). But ONLY IF you have delighted yourself in Him. LOL on believing God for a goose that lays golden eggs. No need to apologize for the sarcasm. Believe it or not, I understand the passion you seem to have. You said: The bible clearly warns us about the dangers that riches pose. 1 Tim 6:9 "But those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a snare and many foolish and harmful desires which plunge men into ruin and destruction. Is it the riches themselves that pose the dangers or the WANTING to get rich? The reason I ask this is because later in that same chapter (v17,18), those who are rich are commanded to: 1. not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain 2. put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. 3. do good 4. be rich in good deeds 5. be generous and willing to share. In order that they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life. Another reason I ask the question is because Psalm 112 talks about the man that fears the LORD and delights greatly in his commandments. One of the things said about this man is ‘Wealth and riches shall be in his house’. I recognize that the Psalms also have warnings about riches/wealth and maybe we can study that out later :) And if I may, I will agree with you for ‘God to bless you financially according to His will’. OK :), that’s it for me… Abba Father Bless you always…. Meredith |

110 | what's the name it claim it theory? | Gal 5:22 | mbooker | 57961 | ||
Hey Brother John How are we to be certain that any particular desire is in accordance with His will? My answer would be by renewing our minds: Do not be conformed to this world (this age), fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you]. Rom 12:2 How would you, Sister M., comfort the child's grieving Mother? I have never had a child, thus never lost a child and thus have no experience with how devastating that can be. The following scriptures comes to mind: Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. 2 Cor 1:3-4 Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad. Proverbs 12:25 A word fitly spoken [is like] apples of gold in pictures of silver. Proverbs 25:11 I would pray for the widsom to fitly speak a good word. Abba Father bless... Meredith |

111 | Notes that have barbes? | Eph 4:15 | mbooker | 57294 | ||
'have consideration for the uniqueness of each person in the body of Christ' Brother Robert, you stated in words what I could not. As I have read thru posts today, I have been greived at what I perceive as strife within the body. Oh! that we would all 'have consideration for the uniqueness of each person in the body of Christ' while we remain true to the truth of our Father's word. Abba Father bless you... :) |

112 | question | Col 2:12 | mbooker | 57099 | ||
Hi dasev I receive your question with love :). The reason I asked the question was because the poster said 'Jesus was quicked by the Spirit during baptism in water' and I don't have that understanding. If the poster is correct, I would like my understanding corrected. arent there some things that we just do not need the answers to? that could be but when I see something that seems contrary to what I believe, I need to know if what I believe needs adjusting or not. isn't there enouhg to DO with what we clearly understand already? for me, a big YES!!! :). And I also want to continue to 'increase in the knowledge of God' (Col 1:10), which means increase in the knowledge of the Word. And I don't impose my curosity on others. When I ask a question, I'm simply wanting to settle any questions I have in my mind. Whew!! Hope I wasn't too long winded... :) Abba Father Bless and Keep you... :) Meredith |

117 | Operate on faith or endure? | Heb 11:1 | mbooker | 67413 | ||
I would like to add that we can prove what God's good, acceptable and perfect will is. The Amp version of Romans 12:2 is my favorite 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 KJV Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will. NIV Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you]. Amp I looked up the word prove at blueletterbible.org: 1381 dokimazo - prove 10, try 4, approve 3, discern 2, allow 2, like 1, examine 1; 23 1) to test, examine, prove, scrutinise (to see whether a thing is genuine or not), as metals 2) to recognise as genuine after examination, to approve, deem worthy I believe that once you have renewed your mind in a particular area (I say particular area because right now I believe renewing our minds is a lifetime process) then you can 1. prove what is that good, acceptable and perfect will of God 2. ask according to His will When you ask according to His will, He hears you. Since He hears you, you have the petition you asked. 1 John 5:14-15. |

118 | Operate on faith or endure? | Heb 11:1 | mbooker | 67450 | ||
Hi EdB As a matter of fact I do pray in the Holy Spirit. You ask why? I pray in the Holy Spirit when I am interceding for someone and do not know exactly what they need prayer for (Romans 8:26). And since I don’t know what they need prayer for, I have no way of knowing which scriptures to take into prayer with me. And when I pray in the Holy Spirit, he makes intercession according to the will of God (Romans 8:27). I also pray in the spirit/speak in tongues to talk to God, speak mysteries and to edify myself (1 Cor 14:2,4) After reading Rom 12:2 in context, I am not sure how taking v2 in context changes what I believe to be a biblical truth: I can, by the renewal of my mind, prove what is that good, acceptable and perfect will of God. You said ‘It really isn't saying we will know God's will in all situations’. What I do is if a situation arises, I look through my Bible and/or seek counsel/direction to scripture from other more mature Christians to find God’s will for that particular type of situation. If I find it (God’s will), then I do 1 John 5:14-15. If I don’t find it (God’s will), then I pray in the Holy Spirit. Either way, prayer according to the will of God is being prayed. |

119 | Operate on faith or endure? | Heb 11:1 | mbooker | 67470 | ||
I will gladly restate what I said: 'I believe that once your mind has been renewed in a particular area (I say particular area because right now I believe renewing our minds is a lifetime process)' 'However, why do you hold the will in Romans 12:2 to be anything but God's revealed will in Scripture?' Respectfully I answer: I was not aware I was doing that. I do believe that if I do not know scripture, then I do not know God's will. As I study the scriptures and my mind is renewed, God's revealed will in scripture is revealed to me. That is a more accurate representation of what I believe... |
||||||
120 | Operate on faith or endure? | Heb 11:1 | mbooker | 67471 | ||
Let me restate this one more time: "I believe that once my mind has been renewed in a particular area (I say particular area because right now I believe the renewing of my mind is a lifetime process)" |
