Building your house on the word from God

People are taught to hate. But I warn you. If you ask God to cleanse your heart and your spirit, you will find, in time, your hatred for your football rival has disappeared with other hatreds.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
If you pray what David prayed,  God will give you a clean heart and will also renew a "right" spirit in you!
 
Psalm 51:10  Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Our flesh suffers when we refuse to let it do what it wants to do and we cause scripture to rule over our flesh

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
I Peter 3:10-11  For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:  (guile: no sly or cunning words deceiving the other person to achieve what you want; deceptive words.)
 
11 Let him eschew (deliberately avoid) evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue (pursue peace) it.

I Peter 3:15  But sanctify (set aside) the Lord God in your hearts.

I Peter 4:1-2  Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;
 
2 That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

Depending on God to clean my heart and my spirit

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
David prayed:
 
Psalm 51
 
1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to THY lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of THY tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
 
2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin
 
David asked God to do this for him.  I find it much easier to ask God to cleanse me than to try to cleanse myself, so I've begun doing this and found myself to be changed by God!
 
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
 
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
 
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
 
When I have "rubbed against the world" I realize some of the thinking of the world may have clung to my thinking so I often pray the following verse 10, and sometimes after praying verse 10, I will even have the sensation of instantly being cleansed by God and there will be such peace.  Nothing hides from God!
 
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
 
11 Cast me not away from Thy presence; and take not Thy holy spirit from me.
 
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
 
I feel I have greatly changed over the past few months since I have been asking God to cleanse my heart and to give me a "right" spirit about that person who has offended me!

Make provision to surround your mind with needed scripture. Gird up the loins of your mind. Make the scripture a part of you.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
I Peter 2
 
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
 
We develop faith by our experience with God and also by the way we handle scripture.
 
Pam Padgett told me this last night:
 
For many years when a scripture would be called to my attention or stood out to me when reading the Bible, I would write that scripture out on a piece of paper which I kept in my pocket.  When I would be in the bathroom or at work waiting for a meeting to start or walking the dogs, I would take the piece of paper out of my pocket and go over some of these scriptures.  I kept adding scriptures to this piece of paper until it was full, then start another piece of paper.  Since having a smart-phone, which I keep with me most of the time, I have started keeping scriptures on it so I can review them easily.  
 
I always want the scripture to become a part of me, not just something I know in my mind, but something that is part of me.  
 
Pam was different from the others who were in our church group.  She had faith like I have.  I always wondered why.  I had been taken into heaven twice so I had a very big advantage, but Pam didn't have that type of thing happen like I did.  Yet we were the same.
 
Now I know.  We were handling scripture the same way, making those verses to be a part of us.
 
Joshua 1:8  This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

As we believe in our heart we confess with our mouth ... sometimes good ... sometimes evil

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Jesus says:
 
Matthew 12 
 
33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
 
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
 
35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
 
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
 
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

Keeping the Word of God before you that you can do that Word of God

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
James 1
 
18 Of HIS own will begat HE us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of HIS creatures.
 
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
 
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
 
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.
 
22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
 
23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
 
24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
 
25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
 
26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.

Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. (Hebrews 2:1)

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
earnest heed:  sincere and intense conviction
 
James 1:22  But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
 
Mark 4
 
14 The sower soweth the word.
 
15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.
 
To keep this from happening, write that word down and keep it before you day and night until the word gets strong enough in you that you do that word.
 
Joshua 1:8  This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

We didn't save ourselves, did we? Most of us didn't even know we were doing wrong until God opened our eyes to see. When that happened, some asked God to save them.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Too often, we humans, think we can do it ourselves.
 
I have learned I can't trust in myself.  Instead, I learned to trust in God.  I'm sure God can save me and change me and nothing can hide from God so if perchance a devil or two has hid in me God sees the problem and casts those devils out of me by HIS Holy Spirit.
 
God caused me to be born again on August 5, 1975, by the word HE gave me:  "Joan ... you know those mistakes you've been making all these years?  Those weren't mistakes.  Those were sins."
 
"SINS?"  I thought they were mistakes.
 
God changed me instantly that night.
 
2 Corinthians 5:17  Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
 
God caused me to be a new creature, born again, that same night that HE spoke to me when I was 37 years old.
 
I had gone forward when I was 15 and was baptized in water because I didn't want to go to hell.
 
But I couldn't change myself by what I did.
 
Neither can I change my heart by my efforts or by reading self improvement books.
 
God can change me instantly by what HE does and nothing hides from God.  
 
After I was born again, I was sleeping in the night.  The Holy Spirit cast 3 devils out of me.  One was a double minded spirit which was skipping through my chest cavities and ran directly into the Holy Spirit.  The devil tried to dart back and hide!  The Holy Spirt said, "I see you...  You must go from her."  The devil tried to stay in me.  And the Holy Spirit said, "YOU MUST GO  ... YOU MUST GO ... YOU MUST GO." I felt devil tear out through my throat.  I began coughing.  He left through my mouth.
 
There were 2 other devils that were cast out of me but their name was not revealed to me.
 
Certainly the Word, the Bible, can also make devils leave ... especially when we do scripture shown us by the Holy Spirit.
 
God can do this!
 
💥💥💥
 
When she was a teenager, God revealed to Pam Padgett that if she died that night she would go to hell and that her only hope was God.  (I don't believe any church saves us.  God saves us by HIS will and HIS word in HIS timing.)
 
Pam cried out to God for help.  HE helped her, causing her to be born again and to be saved.  And HE gave Pam HIS Holy Spirit to live in her.
 
Pam said she knew after that "something" of God was in her.  Years later she came to know it was God's Holy Spirit that was in her.
 
I Corinthians 3:16  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
 
I Corinthians 12:27-28  Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.28 And God hath set some in the church (to care for the church as ministers), first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
 
Each person born again by God has the Holy Spirit living in him to teach him, and to guide him.
 
Jesus says:
 
John 14:26  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
 
John 16:13  Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will shew you things to come.
 
I Corinthians 2  (The Holy Spirit searches the heart of God to reveal to us the will of God)
 
9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. (Old Testament before the Holy Spirit was giving to all believers.)
 
10 But God hath revealed them unto us by HIS Spirit (NT testament church where believers are given Holy Spirit (Heb.l): for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
 
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
 
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
 
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
 
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
 
💥💥💥
 
But even when devils are not within us, devils speak thoughts to our minds to try to lead us and destroy us.  Our own flesh speaks thoughts to our mind to fulfill desires of the flesh, often to destroy us.  God speak thoughts to our mind also, but to keep us from destructions of flesh and devils.
 
John 10:10  Jesus says:  The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
 
So which thoughts are of God?
 
I John 4
 
1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
 
(Evil spirits often bring thoughts to you that tell you what will happen if you do "that" which God told you.  Those spirit speak opposite to what God says.)
 
2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
 
I often say to that spirit that brought that thought:  "Do you confess that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh?"  And I will have brought to my mind:  "Yes" or "No"
 
Sometimes we try the spirit by scriptures which tell you the characteristics of the Word from above.
 
James 3:17  But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
 
Matthew 11:30  Jesus says:  For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
 
The devil tries to imitate God and make you think he is God speaking to you.  Many, especially young Christians, fall into that trap.

The law is made for the lawless. (I Timothy 1: 9-11)

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
The apostle Paul says: 
 
I Timothy 1:9-11
 
9 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,
 
10 For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;
 
I've had times I was really concerned about that thing that I did.  When this happened I fell down before God in soul and spirit and begged for God to save me and cleanse me and restore me.  And HE did!
 
I Trust God ... not me!  God can help me and cleanse me.  God can remove all spots from my garment, from my heart and my soul.

God is our hope

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
When I drift off into temporary madness (insanity) against someone, I pray:  Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a "right" spirit within me.  (Psalm 51:10) 
 
God usually answers this prayer instantly!
 
HE restoreth my soul.  (Psalm 23:3)
 
💥💥💥
 
If I tried to do this for myself, it might take weeks, months, years ... or never.
 
(I don't trust myself!)
 
Sometimes I even pray for God to create a clean heart and renew a "right" spirit in the other person as-well-as in me.
 
And HE does.
 
💥💥💥
 
There are times "our train" gets slightly off track!  We end up getting "mad" over something.  
 
God is our hope for immediate cleansing.  God knows exactly what has gone wrong and God can go right to the heart of the problem.
 
Lots of times devils have wormed their way into our thinking and they cause trouble and would destroy us if possible.  But we know to pray and God straightens everything out for us!
 
Nothing is impossible with God!
 
John 10:10  (Jesus says)
 
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I (The Word) am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

The ministers in today's churches who want big crowds and fame and money

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
To keep from offending people, they withhold many scriptures.
 
Instead of showing scripture which reveal sin in God's sight and bringing about repentance from sin, they end up approving various sins in their congregations.
 
*  Matthew 5:32  (Jesus said) But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
 
*  Mark 10
 
6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
 
7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;
 
8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
 
9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
 
10 And in the house his disciples asked HIM again of the same matter.
 
11 And HE (Jesus) saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
 
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
 
* I Corinthians 6
 
15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
 
16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith HE, shall be one flesh.
 
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
 
Concerning homosexuals & lesbians:
 
Romans 1
 
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
 
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
 
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
 
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
 
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
 
* I Corinthians 6
 
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (homosexuals), nor abusers of themselves with mankind, 10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
 
*  Revelation 3:5  (Jesus says)  He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before HIS  angels.
 
Our names can be blotted out of the book of life.
 
Antichrist churches today teach opposite from the above scriptures approving sins inside the congregation and they grow big by approval of sin for worldly people want to feel approved in their sins.

Things are getting much worse today, just as the apostle Paul said they would get worse toward the end of this world

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
2 Timothy 3  (The apostle Paul said)
 
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
 
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
 
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
 
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
 
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
 
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
 
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
 
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
 
 
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
 
13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.
 
14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of WHOM thou hast learned them;  (The Holy Spirit teaches us)
 
15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
 
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
 
17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
 
💥💥💥
 
Concerning being "without natural affection" ...
 
Romans 1
 
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified HIM not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
 
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
 
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
 
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
 
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
 
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

Churches fall away from scripture and set up doctrines opposite to doctrines of Christ inside the church groups

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Perversions began in the church at Ephesis during the life of Paul.  Paul explains this to us.
 
I Timothy 1
 
1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope;
 
2 Unto Timothy, my own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.
 
3 As I besought thee to abide still at Ephesus, when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some that they teach no other doctrine,
 
4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
 
5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
 
6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
 
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
 
Acts 20  (Paul speaking to the Elders of the church at Ephesus.)
 
17 And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.
 
26 Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.
 
27 For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
 
28 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which HE hath purchased with HIS own blood.
 
29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
 
30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
 
Antichrist is already here speaking in churches that say, "Jesus is Lord".
 
When Jesus returns, HE will judge the antichrist preachers and their churches and their denominations who love their church more than they love the Holy Scriptures.
 
2 Thessalonians 2
 
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (when Jesus returns) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
 
1982 God said to me:  "This falling away are not people leaving the churches.  This falling away are the churches leaving the scriptures."
 
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
 
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
 
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
 
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
 
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of HIS mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of HIS coming:
 
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
 
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
 
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
 
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

We pray, then how do we know which ideas are from God?

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Matthew 11:28  Jesus says ...   Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
 
29 Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
 
30  For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.
 
 
James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
 
 
James 3:14 But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.
 
15 This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 
 
16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
 
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
 
 
John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
 
 
John 10:3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 
 
4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.
 
5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.

I Samuel 16
 
22 And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray thee, stand before me; for he hath found favour in my sight.
 
23 And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand: so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

If 2 prophets warn you, then what?

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Sometimes a person will be going a way that would destroy him (or her) and God sends HIS prophets to them.
 
This happened in our little church group:
 
A woman, Pam Padgett, was planning to marry.  I brought strong warning to her.  Barbara Preston also brought strong warning.
 
After that Pam postponed the wedding.
 
The man she was planning to marry told her about his son who was planning to marry a divorced woman. Pam then spoke up and told this man the following scripture.  Matthew 5:32  But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
 
After Pam shared this scripture, that man no longer wanted to marry her!
 
Today Pam looks back and thanks God she didn't marry him.
 
💥💥💥
 
Proverbs 16:25  There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
 
💥💥💥
 
Prophets of God must be brave enough to speak when they are troubled.  
 
If a person shows himself to be of God, I would not want to go against the words he brings from God.
 
💥💥💥
 
The husband of a woman in our church group had 2 small strokes.  Their house has many stairs.  We were concerned about this.  She then told us they planned to sell that house and move into to the condominium owned by their 50+ year old son who has been twice divorced and lives in another city.  We were very happy to hear this.  (that was our flesh that was happy for it seemed good to us.)
 
But God gave me an open vision.  I saw a giant prehistoric type snake that was about 4 times the size of a giant alligator.  It was swallowing a woman whole.  Only the legs were sticking out of the mouth of the snake.  Like Jonah was swallowed whole by the whale, she was being swallowed whole.  Then I saw this was the woman in our church group who planned to move in with her adult aged son.  
 
Her husband, at this time, is not saved but we know he will be because God gave her a dream where he was reading Bible.  Her adult son and daughter are not currently saved.  Nor is her granddaughter saved.  Nor is her son in law saved.  She would be swallowed whole by all these unbelievers.
 
I even asked her what she would do if her son brought a woman home to spend the night while she was living at his condo.
 
The next thing after that, she decided she didn't want to move in with her son.  She told her husband and he had no problem about changing this plan.  (Her husband is the step father of the 2 adult children.)
 
The husband improved physically and they still live in the house where they were living at the time of his strokes and they are doing fine.
 
God saves us from our distresses!

The new testament church today:

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Ephesians 4:8-12
 
8 Wherefore HE saith, When HE ascended up on high, HE led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
 
11-12  And HE gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;  12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
 
💥💥💥
 
What do apostles do today in the New Testament Church?  Who are the apostles?  I once asked the Bible teacher at the church I was attending at that time.
 
He said he didn't know.
 
So I ask God to teach me about the New Testament apostles that were called by him.
 
He took me to Acts 15 to teach me:  A problem arose in the early church.  The Jews who were now Christians asked, "Do the Gentiles have to be circumcised?"  
 
The apostles and elders met in Jerusalem to settle this doctrine of the NT church.
 
Acts 15
 
1 And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
 
2 When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.
 
3 And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brethren.
 
4 And when they were come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
 
5 But there rose up certain of the sect of the Pharisees which believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.
 
6 And the apostles and elders came together for to consider of this matter.
 
7 And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose up, and said unto them, Men and brethren, ye know how that a good while ago God made choice among us, that the Gentiles by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
 
8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as HE did unto us;
 
9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
 
10 Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
 
11 But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, even as they.
 
12 Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought among the Gentiles by them.
 
13 And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:
 
14 Simeon hath declared how God at the first did visit the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for HIS name.
 
15 And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
 
16 After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins thereof, and I will set it up: 17 That the residue of men might seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom MY name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
 
18 Known unto God are all HIS works from the beginning of the world.
 
19 Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
 
20 But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.
 
21 For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach HIM, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.
 
22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:  (both Judas & Silas were prophets)
 
Acts 15:32  And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them.
 
***
 
By this, God showed me apostles in the church to have a special ordination to deal with scripture and church doctrines.
 
Today the falling away spoken of by Paul that must occur before Jesus returns, has happened in many churches where those churches have "fallen away" from scriptures and have set up doctrines contrary to Bible.  (2 Thess. 2:3-12)
 
New Testament apostles today will try to get individuals to return to doctrine of the Bible, and to hold fast to scripture.
 
For many antichrist spirits surface in churches at the end time to draw away people from Bible.
 
Apostles deal with this until Jesus returns:
 
2 Thessalonians 2
 
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
 
(In 1982, God said to me: "The falling away are not people leaving the churches.  The falling away are the churches leaving the scriptures and setting up other doctrines."
 
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
 
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of HIS mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of HIS coming:
 
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
 
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
 
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
 
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

The kingdom of heaven suffereth violence and the violent take it by force

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
When you have the word of God on the issue, that is all there is. 
 
Sometimes we deal with things that are harder than other things.  To jump in before you have been established by God in the way to go is very foolish indeed.  But when you hear from God, there is no other counsel.  So I like to move quickly before devils try to get me to do something else.
 
💥💥💥
 
Jesus says:
 
Matthew 11:12  And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
 
Jacob wrestled with the angel until he received the blessing:  Genesis 32

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.  (John 10:10)
 
Ideas come to our mind:  Where did that idea come from?
 
We have many thoughts.  Where did that come from?
 
Seems that people rarely consider the source.  Sometimes people say God told them.  Sometimes they recognize it is from a devil who wants to destroy them.
 
Devils sit in the temple of God pretending they are god and some people follow what they say thinking they are god when they are devils.
 
2 Thessalonians 2
 
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day (of the Lord) shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
 
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
 
I Thessalonians 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

By our words we will be justified and by our words we will be condemned. (Mt. 12:37)

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Devils work to turn us opposite from God in our thinking.  If we confess the words of devils, thinking it was God who spoke to us, we deny God.
 
So we must be "sober", "alert", correctly evaluating "voices" that bring thoughts and ideas to us.
 
When Pam Padgett had cancer, diagnosed by medical doctors in 2022, and the surgeon said she would be dead in one to two years unless they removed her bladder after a series of chemotherapy.   I said to God:  "YOU put me to live in Pam's house and gave Pam a "gift of helps" to help me.  I know this cancer against Pam is illegal and not of YOU because the Bible tells me with YOU there is no "variableness" neither shadow of turning."
 
James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
 
God did not let this happen.  God did not permit them to do surgery and saddle Pam with no bladder and a procedure that these doctors would remove a part of her body HE created in her and make her live this way the remainder of her life.
 
There was "another way" to go in the matter.  With chemo and radiation the cancer was destroyed.
 
My confession was the character of God.  God has no variableness, neither shadow of turning.  That which the doctors were going to do to Pam was against the essence of God HIMSELF.
 
And God did not permit this to be done to Pam.  A change to treatment by chemo-radiation (no surgery) changed everything.  When they did that, the cancer was destroyed.  Now there is no cancer operating inside Pam.  Three series of tests since the treatment have shown the cancer is gone.  Each time those doctors have looked for cancer, they have found the cancer to be gone!

One woman in our little church group has been with us since 1980.  Recently she told me when she prays God never answers her.  (Devils speak this to her,  and she buys into something that is completely opposite to what we hear in the Bible.)
 
Jesus says:  John 10  Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
 
This woman listens to what devils tell her and confesses them to other people.  For Bible tells us truth about God and about Jesus and tells us what they will do.  Devils are liars and tell us lies opposite to Bible.
 
John 10  Jesus says: 9 I am the door: by ME if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth HIS life for the sheep.
 
Matthew 12  Jesus says:
 
Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
 
34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
 
35 good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
 
36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
 
37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
 
The apostle Paul says:
 
I Thessalonians 5:21  Prove all things.  Hold fast that which is good.
 
Prove that thought by Bible.
 
The devil sits in the temple of God showing himself he is god. 
 
But we do not fall for that because we know what Bible says and we confess Bible as truth.

We can overcome. We are well able, says Caleb.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
The way of this world is to look at the circumstances and judge they can't do "that" because of what they see in problems.
 
The people of faith in God know they are well able to do that which God says.
 
Numbers 13
 
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
 
2 Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them.
 
So Moses obeyed God and sent men out to see the land God had promised to give to them.
 
3 And Moses by the commandment of the LORD sent them from the wilderness of Paran: all those men were heads of the children of Israel.
 
They reached the land and saw it was a good land. 
 
20  And what the land is, whether it be fat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And be ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the firstripe grapes.
 
23  And they came unto the brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a staff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs.
 
They reported to the congregation of Israel upon their return:
 
25 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.
 
26 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to Kadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land.
 
27 And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it.
 
28 Nevertheless the people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are walled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there. 29 The Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and the Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan.
 
30 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.
 
(Once we hear from God what to do, we'd better do it as quickly as possible, not giving devils time to attack us, for devils will turn us from what God wants us to do if at all possible.)
 
Caleb and Joshua saw God ... the others saw the problems.
 
The world makes excuses ... faith sees God.
 
💥💥💥💥💥
31 But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.
 
32 And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature.  33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.
 
God killed each of those men who brought the evil report and discouraged the congregation.

Peter walked on water to get to the place where Jesus was. He only began sinking when he looked at the waves.

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
Matthew 14
 
25 And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.
 
26 And when the disciples saw HIM walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
 
27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
 
28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
 
29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
 
(Peter wanted to be where Jesus was.)
 
30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
 
31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?

Paul told us what to do when we gather as the church and this is what we will try to do at these sessions:
 
I Corinthians 14:26  How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm (prayer), hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
 
Matthew 18:20  (Jesus says:)  For where two or three are gathered together in MY name, there am I in the midst of them.
 
(Pam & I believe Matthew 18:20.  Do you? If you believe this, what should you expect?  I have prayed that God have those at this meeting that HE wants here.  Pam and I make 2.  So that means the Spirit of Jesus will be with us doing as God wills. Jesus heals people.  Jesus saves people.  Jesus brings words to show people the way to go. People learn the working of the Holy Spirit of God to teach people the things of God and to remind them of things Jesus said to us in the Bible.  The Holy Spirit is the comforter and the Spirit of Truth.  I'm so often amazed at those things Jesus shows me and how it helps me to know what to do on this earth.)
 
When Jesus is in the midst of us, all things are possible!  Jesus is the truth and the answer to everything!

Home Meeting of Jesus Ministries
July 22-26, 2024
Pam Padgett's home in Colorado Springs, Co.
(details to follow)
 
Paul told us what to do when we gather as the church and this is what we will try to do:
 
I Corinthians 14:26  How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm (prayer), hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying.
 
Matthew 18:20  (Jesus says:)  For where two or three are gathered together in MY name, there am I in the midst of them.
 
Do you believe Matthew 18:20?  Pam and I are believers so that makes 2 of us.  Jesus promises to be with us in this case.  Since Jesus is with us and we believe this, shouldn't people be born again and healings occur?  I would expect this to happen.  
 
But if you do not expect and believe and come here in faith, then we are warned as follows:
 
James 1:5-6  If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
 
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
 
7  For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
 
Please examine yourself.  
 
Recently a woman in our little church group said she never hears from God when she prays?  
 
Hebrews 11:6   But without faith it is impossible to please HIM: for he that cometh to God must believe that HE is, and that HE is a rewarder of them that diligently seek HIM.
 
💥💥💥
 
Every time I pray, I expect God to hear me for I pray according to the will of God.  If I'm not sure of the will of God, I don't ask God to do something.
 
I'm sure when I pray asking God to create in me a clean heart and to renew a new spirit within me (Psalm 51:10), I'm sure God does that for me.  Sometimes I feel a change in me instantly.
 
I John 5:14-15  And this is the confidence that we have in HIM, that, if we ask any thing according to HIS will, HE heareth us:
 
15 And if we know that HE hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of HIM.
 
You can't listen to what the devil says and confess that to other people and receive from God.
 
When the devil tells me something opposite to Bible,  I know that is the devil speaking and I refuse to believe it because devil is a liar and there is no truth in him.  
 
And I do not repeat what the devil says to me.  neither should you.

Scripture brought to my mind by Holy Spirit changed everything

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 
 
We have a woman in our church group who has been difficult to deal with from time to time.
 
Recently the Holy Spirit brought this scripture to my mind and it enabled me to go another way as I communicated with her.
 
I Thessalonians 5:14  Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
 
💥💥💥
 
* Warn the unruly:  disorderly and disruptive and not amenable to discipline or control:
 
* Comfort the feebleminded:  (of a person) unable to make intelligent decisions or judgments:
 
* Support the weak:  liable to break or give way under pressure; easily damaged:
 
*  Be patient:  able to accept or tolerate delays, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious:
