Show Us The Father

I recently watched the interesting documentary, "Show Me the Father "by the Kendrick Brothers.

This 90 minute film depicts the role of the Father and how the Glory of God is revealed in it. However, too many fathers these days fail their children.

One of the highlights of this film was how the first families (in the history books of the Bible) would pass their blessing and favor on to their children (sons).

Many children grow up fatherless; others (like myself) grew up with a father that was never there. My dad mocked and cursed me and had a use for me, then called me "no good" when I stopped allowing myself to be used by him. Not only was he a professed Christian, but he calls himself a pastor and evangelist...

Psalm 27:10 When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up.

When you go to Bible Gateway (KJV) and type in the word 'Father' you get 1511 results. The book of John alone has 116 verses with the word 'Father' in it. John 3:35 says, "The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand."

When a father loves, he will entrust all things to his child - knowing that he raised them right; this includes good judgement!

John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

To raise a child right, it must be done with integrity. We see from the following verse that God, our Father, seeketh the integrity in heart as true lovers and worshippers of Him.

John 4:23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

Stats show that those raised without a father are more likely to end up with addiction, in prison, depressed and commit suicide and more. The majority of the people on earth do not have a loving father and the chaos on earth proves it.

The passage of John 14:7-14 demonstrated the struggle with our understanding that We Have A Father!

"If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father? Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it."

Jesus is clearly telling us that We Have A Father!

As a (struggling) Christian, many times I feel like I am way off-out of God's sight and mind - constantly mulling over the sins' of my past and present...

I also struggle with other challenges - one of them being that I don't know how to identify myself as a daughter of the Heavenly Father; He is God, just not Father.

Throughout my life, I have taken a lot of unkindness; so when it comes to comprehending the Father's kindness, I find it difficult.

Luke 15:20 And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

Ephesians 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

I see the above verse that I am a great way off; but that doesn't stop the Fathers affection.

Unkind words and actions is not where our identity is; our true identity is where the Father's love and compassion is.

Isaiah 49:16 Behold, I have graven thee upon the palms of my hands; thy walls are continually before me.

Remember this and know that Your Heavenly Father is with you - always.

God Bless,

Sorrow Not

2 Corinthians 7:10 in the Amplified Bible - Classic Edition reads: For godly grief and the pain God is permitted to direct, produce a repentance that leads and contributes to salvation and deliverance from evil, and it never brings regret; but worldly grief (the hopeless sorrow that is characteristic of the pagan world) is deadly [breeding and ending in death].

For every worldly problem there is a Godly solution. People don't search God's Word for their issues because they don't want to accept that the fact that the problem lies within them (desires). 

The source of all problems can be found in Genesis 3:6 "And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat." This shows us that our life's issues flow from our desires. (Proverbs 4:23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.)

Unfulfilled desires leads to sorrow, anger, depression and even anxiety; I've witnessed suicides (attempts) in people because they can't come to terms with not getting what they want - this should never be! This is why God doesn't give us the things we want - He knows our lives can be destroyed by them, and He wants to work these character flaws out of you. 

Our desires never produce Godly character in us. God wants us broken from the world - and as we are broken from the world, Godly character is being built in us. 

Romans 13:8 says, "Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law."

When Jesus is all you desire, you are not going to have any problems other than a deep love, regard and concern for the unsaved; and all that will matter upon Christ's return is who He takes with Him!

Eternity

I find it interesting that the fearful (cowardly) is named first; then the unbelieving; you can tell a great deal about a person by what they believe, and what they are afraid of.

There are many whose actions are what God calls an abomination; it's all listed in the Bible.

Next is the murderers (haters - 1 John 4:7-21); there is a whole chapter committed to this subject.

Then comes the sorcerer; this isn't limited to a professional foreteller, it is anyone who uses phycological warfare to control the affairs of others! (Pharmakeia - Look it up - Revelation 18:23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries (pharmakeia) were all nations deceived.)

Then there is the idolaters; many would say they love Jesus, but their heart is in their goods (homes, jewelry, fashions, cars - if Jesus came right now, would you willingly leave all your possessions behind (Matthew 24:17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:), or would you look back like Lots wife (Genesis 19:26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.) and perish? 

Then lastly, the liars (Proverbs 6:16-19 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.)

Only Believe

 

Out of all 129 verses that contained the word rose, these are the only 2 verses that refer to the actual flower in the KJV; all the other verses were pertaining to rising up or rising early. On a side note, that’s exactly what roses do – rise up early.

Roses are the most potent and powerful out of all things that people consume. Their health benefits are paramount in fighting all diseases and preventing them. Rose essential oil has the highest MHz rating over all other foods and oils; and rose petals are packed with vitamin C which makes them choice to toss into salads and smoothies. It’s no wonder that the rose is compared to the excellency of our God.

The average human operates anywhere between 72-90 MHz When your MHz gets below 57, you are prone to disease and infections. If your MHz gets down to 25, that’s when death occurs. Naturally, you’d want to keep your MHz values above 72.

By simply breathing in rose essential oil, your frequency is raised to 66 MHz after 21 seconds.

Rose Essential Oil can stop bleeding (from a cut) and it will prevent infection. Rose Essential Oil can also reduce your blood pressure quickly. Since Rose Essential Oil has a value of 320 Hz, it can literally delay death in humans. No wonder why one of the many titles of Jesus is the Rose of Sharon, He defied death - and rose again - even after losing all that blood! (Luke 22:44, John 19:34, Luke 22:20) His blood was shed for our eternal lives!

Another title for Jesus is the Lily of the Valley. Interestingly enough, the term "Lily of the Valley" (Song of Songs 2:1 הָעֲמָקִים) is what European herbalists' use to refer to specific plant species that just appear out of nowhere, and out of impossible conditions...

Luke 12:27-28 Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. If then God so clothe the grass, which is to day in the field, and to morrow is cast into the oven; how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little faith?

In these days of fear-mongering and promises of food shortages and inflation, are you believing God will provide for you? Or are you demanding your government to take action? Faith is believing God over government. Government creates problems - while every solution to them is found in the Word of God; and, as long as you are in Christ, why would you even care as to what is going on in the world?

Take this example from Isaiah 65:10 "And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me: 

Now the Sharon Plain (pictured here) runs along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. The area use to be fertile, but only during the time of God's provision. Now, only a small area remains farmland, but the majority of the plain is now under water (swamp). Perhaps it's this way because the people who took over the land (Zionists) do not seek the LORD...

We truly serve a God who is Sovereign over all impossibilities, and creation truly reveals God's excellency, and promises.

Matthew 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

Petal Power

The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. Isaiah 35:1 

Your organs, bones, cells, brain, heart, respiratory system, immune system all have electrical power [Body-Electric]. Low vibration frequencies generate physical changes in the body. Average vibration frequencies stimulate emotional changes - promoting well-being, and high vibrations raises the benefits. These vibrations vary in the range within 92-360 Hz.

 

The average vibration frequency of the human body during the daytime is from 62-68 Hz. The healthy vibration level is from 62 to 72 Hz. Human cells start to mutate when their frequency drops below 62 MHz – this is what makes people prone to disease. Every thing you eat and drink either raises or lowers these levels. In addition to that, every breath you take and all your activities (exercise, hugging and kissing, prayer and worship [the LORD]) raises these vibrations as well. In today's environment, we are plagued by free radicals; the good news is there is something you can do about it. 

During a study on the effect essential oils has on humans, it was discovered that all essential oils raise your frequency - which aids in the prevention and/or the elimination of disease. These studies have shown that essential oils have the highest vibration frequency than any other substance (foods). Its high vibrations generate a protective cloud around the body-protecting it from free radicles which aids in the development of all diseases, viruses and bacteria. The vibration frequency of essential oils starts at 52 Hz. 

Here’s a few essential oils and their Hz values:

 

• Angelica 85 Hz.
• Frankincense 147 Hz.
• Juniper 98 Hz. 
• Peppermint 78 Hz. 
• Basil 52 Hz.
• Lavender 118 Hz. 
• Chamomile 105 Hz. 
• Melissa 102 Hz. 
• Galbanum 56 Hz. 
• Myrrh 105 Hz.
• Sandalwood 96 Hz. 

Substances that have Hz values: 

• Leafy Greens 70 Hz.
• Green Smoothies 170 Hz. 
• Fresh Herbs 20 - 27 Hz.
• Dry Herbs 12 - 22 Hz.
• Fruit 10 - 15 Hz.

 

The value of Rose Essential Oil is a whopping 320 Hz – making it the best for optimal health – it also makes the most expensive.

Breathing in rose essential oil raises your frequency to 66 MHz after 21 seconds. 

Rose essential oil is well-known for its astringent properties. By applying rose essential oil to a cut, you can dramatically reduce the amount of bleeding quickly and prevent infection. Rose essential oil, in one study, relaxed the trachea in patients who suffer from asthma. 

Rose essential oil has an antiproliferative effect making it effective for preventing cancer. Rose essential oil is effective at lowering blood pressure quickly (Big Pharma hates this). Rose essential oil stimulates the brain making it effective for preventing Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and treating seizures. The benefits of Rose Essential oil are too numerous to list all of them.

 

The oil is extracted from the petals of the rose and it takes up to 3000 petals to make an ounce of oil. I myself have 5 rose-bushes on my lawn, I take the rose-petals off and have rose petal baths with them. I exfoliate my skin with them, and I smell like a rose for hours after (petal-power!). Roses are high in vitamin C; they provide anti-inflammatory and a host of other health benefits, but they also reduce anxiety - so yes, rose petals are edible! 

Each organ relies on frequencies to maintain good health:

• 71-90 MHz | Brain
• 62-68 MHz | Thyroid and Parathyroid
• 65-68 MHz | Thymus Gland
• 67-70 MHz | Heart
• 58-65 MHz | Lungs
• 55-60 MHz | Liver
• 58-65 MHz | Stomach
• 60-80 MHz | Pancreas
• 50-63 MHz | Colon

The more you know about taking authority over your own health, the more you disarm Big Pharma and the WHO!

Faith vs Good Works

Philippians 2:12-13 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

There are those who think that they can balance the wrong they've done against the right they do. This is not what it means to "work out your salvation with fear and trembling". Our ambition ought to be to allow God to correct us, rather than occupying our lives with “good works” to please our conscience. Acts 8:20 says, “But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.”

When we examine these 2 verses together, we see that it is only God leads us to the good He assigned us – we need not lead ourselves; and it's imperative for us to know that God cannot be bought!

The Bible says in Job 31:6 “Let me be weighed in an even balance that God may know mine integrity.”

Having an even balance means having no pressure on our consciences from the wrongs we’ve committed; we are free from them by the blood of Jesus as we strive to abide in Him. We can never “tip” the scales in our favor by busying ourselves with “works”. (Isaiah 57:12 I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee.) The only gift God accepts is our hearts when we are in right standing with Him (obedience). Luke 18:9 in the Amplified Bible, Classic Edition says, “He also told this parable to some people who trusted in themselves and were confident that they were righteous [that they were upright and in right standing with God] and scorned and made nothing of all the rest of men:” the Bible also says in 1 John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” Apart from obedience, all of our efforts are fallible...

One of my quotes is “Why does God tell us to love one another? Because that is where we sin the most!”  

When we sin against one another, we break the Body of Christ - which is a greater sin from our menial offenses against one another. Breaking the Body of Christ (division) is the main reason many Christians are weak and suffering amongst us. This ought not be!

Philippians 2:2 says “Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.”

There are many benefits to having strong bonds within the Body of Christ; the devil knows what they are so he will strive to keep the body of Christ broken (division). He knows that as long as there is division, we cannot possible be of that One Mind! 

The devil has many tools to operate with; all of them are wrought with emotion. The emotions he targets are envy, anger, arrogance – which all mostly stem from insecurity... but the devil doesn't always attack us in our weakness; he also attacks us through our strong areas!

When the devil attacks us in our strong areas, we are less likely to recognize them. This is because we are puffed-up with confidence - but it is not of God; it's a false confidence because it's in the flesh! This leads us to operate independently from the Body of Christ; I'm not talking about fellowshipping of lending a helping hand; I'm talking about true Christian fellowship by Abiding in Christ and striving to be like Jesus (character). The devil goes through great lengths to keep the Body of Christ apart. This is why Paul wrote Philippians 3:3 "For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh."

When we are feeling confident in ourselves, we need to take caution because this is how the world operates; this is also how the devil uses our strengths against the Body of Christ. Our strengths effectively create further division (Broken Body of Christ) because they cause us to become independent of the Body of Christ (self-reliant). This is why it's so important as Christians to circumcise or cut-off the desires of the flesh (what pleases us). 

Jesus says in John 15:12 “This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.”

The hymn further says “This is my commandment, That you love one another, That your Joy may be Full;” this strengthens the Body and allows us to be of that one mind of that one body which is Christ Jesus!

Those who walk in love, know joy and know peace and enjoy true fellowship with Christ💗

Top of the Mountain

 The best view is from the top...

Isaiah 56

Thus saith the Lord, Keep ye judgment, and do justice: for my salvation is near to come, and my righteousness to be revealed.

Blessed is the man that doeth this, and the son of man that layeth hold on it; that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and keepeth his hand from doing any evil.

Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the Lord, speak, saying, The Lord hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

For thus saith the Lord unto the eunuchs that keep my sabbaths, and choose the things that please me, and take hold of my covenant;

Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.

Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;

Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.

The Lord God, which gathereth the outcasts of Israel saith, Yet will I gather others to him, beside those that are gathered unto him.

All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, yea, all ye beasts in the forest.

His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.

Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter. 

Come ye, say they, I will fetch wine, and we will fill ourselves with strong drink; and to morrow shall be as this day, and much more abundant.

 

I read this passage as though I was reading a love letter from the Lord.

This spoke to my heart because I have a Christian believing family who cut themselves off from me; this has been going on for most of my life.

I stress Christian believing because a true Shepherd (a doer) would not be void of understanding, nor spiteful enough to purposely set out to hurt others.

Through this passage, God showed me that true children of God would never cut themselves off from anyone – only the self-serving beasts would – as the conclusion of this passage points out...

Over the years I have met many who have struggled with family abandonment issues because of their faith. I have coached many on how to deal with the pain of separation; it's a pain that is continual, but at the same time, there is complete joy and peace. 

I showed them that we are all fallen; but it is those beasts who were hateful enough to abandon them-that have chosen to remain in their fallen state (like a beast - unable to understand where - or that they need correcting). They are full of self-love; not the love of God.

These beasts are like the Pharisees; they are bent on titles, position and power, not following Christ.

I encouraged them to shift their focus off of themselves (the hurt they are enduring), and to transfer it to those who abandoned them; they are far from the Lord's salvation and in need of restoration. I encouraged them to pray patiently for their loved ones until they are redeemed.

Jesus himself knew the pain of separation when we was on the cross;  Matthew 27:46 says, “And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?”

As we endure the hardship of being cut-off (persecuted) from friends or family; know today that that it is because we are sharing in Christ’s sufferings  - and one day, we will share in His Glory! We actually ought to be grateful for their persecution - they are the reason why we end up on this (holy) mountain!

Acts 14:22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God. 2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

If this speaks to your heart, know that you belong to the Lord. Jesus wants you to know that you are His and not dry, cast-away and abandoned; He doesn't even want you to entertain those false thoughts. Understand that You are on His Holy Mountain – and we know that those up on the mountain-top enjoys the best views that no one else sees.

God Bless,

Maria
