An Uncomfortable Decision

I heard this morning, a well known comedian, testify about a decision he had to make that was making it “uncomfortable” for him. He said while trying to live a better life as a Christian, he wanted to share the "good news" that he was transforming but, somehow in his mind he decided that by doing that it was going to make a few problems for himself. It was going to make him a little "too uncomfortable” to do that. After all, he knew the people he performed for did not come to hear “Good News” of what was happening to him. They came to hear his "usual act."

So, the Spirit of Fear told him,... “that it would make them turn away and that he would loose possible future gigs" and he thought more on it and decided that he was not living a “righteous enough life” to be “spreading the word of his transformation - after all what if he slid back?

Well I am here to say that the Holy Spirit made him to realize, when choosing to fight for what is rightfully yours - your blessing, you must do most things that will be uncomfortable but, the end result would be worth it.

I was glad to hear this and this lesson reminded me of the uncomfortable decision that Jesus had to make for our right. While praying at Gethsemane, right before the soldiers came for him - he knew all the details as well as the end result. What he had to do for us was not going to be pleasant. We know this by his prayer at Gethsemane in Luke chapter 22:42-45 which says, “Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.” ⁴³ Then an angel from heaven appeared and strengthened him. ⁴⁴ He prayed more fervently, and he was in such agony of spirit that his sweat fell to the ground like great drops of blood.^[a]45 At last he stood up again and returned to the disciples…” It is clear from this prayer that the decision was a difficult one to make for him and I asked myself; knowing all this, and after being strengthened from the angel God sent, how did he still manage to come to do it? After all, he had the opportunity to decide it was too much and it was still his CHOICE to make. As God gives us all "free will to choose" and Jesus was not an exception. How did he move to get up from his knees and walk into the torment and torture that awaited him? And the Holy Spirit (our teacher) revealed to me that, he did not think about what was going to happen to him - he just kept his mind on the “end result."

Before any war there has to be some form of preparation. The renewing of our minds is the first step to victory. Like any great soldier of all time, Jesus had to go through his training to be able to endure and gain this victory. He fed his mind with the Word of God from the Torah when he was just a child and it gave him the knowledge on how to fight and protect himself. The Word of God transformed his tongue into a sword - (bible says the tongue hold the power of life and death) Proverbs 18:21: that defeated the evil spirits that were roaming the earth bringing sickness and death to the weak. Meditating on the scriptures day and night bond together that ran through his blood and it transformed him into the Living and breathing Word of God. He had the greatest faith, strength, and wisdom like no other. He was completely transformed and ready to defeat the enemy.

When Jesus went through it bought us our right to choose – paid in full. Please know that the ruler of this world, does not accept master card, VISA or American express. He only accepts suffering, pain, torment and torture as exchange for lives.

Jesus says, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge...” Hosea 4:6 and keeps (us) from living a life of abundance and Soteria he paid for by his blood sacrifice. We need to know and understand this and if we really get it - that our right to live life abundantly and in Soteria (Greek) meaning: delivered, protected, sound, prosperous, healthy and preserved and Blessed: empowered to prosper and excel in every way and every thing we choose to do for God’s purpose - we would all be doing so much more for God and living a more peaceful pleasant life here on earth until our rooms are ready in heaven.

I say once again - Understand - Jesus paid the price for the RIGHT for us to decide what we want to do. But, we must do our part and FIGHT for our victory of SOTERIA to get in our lives and stay in our lives.

The way we can do it is...prepare for the battle to win. To read and mediate on the word day and night so that it can become our permanent – helmet of wisdom to protect our minds from letting the enemy enter into our eyes, ears, and minds. We must guard against his words and images and not let them connect to our hearts and souls by casting them down when they come across our paths. By quoting the words of God over them and reminding ourselves what the Bible says about these evil things. We must protect ourselves when we go through the battles that come across our paths.

When the enemy comes at us we must protect ourselves with the shield of truth - using the word of God. The shield of truth from Gods Words make it unbendable, unpenitratible and it protects our hearts and souls from the infectious spirits of evil that try to steal hearts what is growing in our blood- our unmoving Faith, Mercy and Forgiveness! We must hold on to these.

When the enemy comes at us It is our responsibility to have our tongues trained to beat down the doubt and fear of untruths. We must lash out putting due pressure over these demonic spirits - pray with others and fast if need be to remove them. So they will not have the opportunity to gain root in the hearts of ourselves and our loved ones. As the Bible says, everything must and will bow down to the word of GOD. We know this because the tongue has the power of life and death. Passage Proverbs 18:21: ²¹Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

So my sisters and brothers in Christ and those who still do not know of the law of the land in which you live, I post, email, fax, anyway I can get this message to you. I urge you to please take it pass it to a friend, a family member anyone you know who is struggling and living a life less of abundance. Please use it to train yourself to win your families SOTERIA! It is your right of passage. You will win – just as Jesus did and you and your families will live a long, life, full of SOTERIA.

The evil spirits that are assigned to make your life a living hell, will not give up because the enemy will not allow them too. But, you do not have to let them just take control over your household. You can keep them away by fighting. It's like shewing a fly that keeps on getting into your way. You keep the pressure on getting it out of your house or your life until you destroy it.

As you grow stronger in the Word less and less of them will come to bother you. They will begin to just “Passover your domain” knowing what is waiting for them at your door. Your goal is to be so filled with the Word that they will not know if it’s Jesus himself (the son of God) or if it is you. Some of them will will be afraid of you and household and will pass your door for they will fear a fight of this kind and know they can not win. It is your responsibility to protect yourself and your loved ones. You owe it to Jesus for what he did for you. Do not disappoint Father God with your actions - as we will all be in front of him and be asked the same question - Why didn't you do your part and fight? Was it not enough that I sent my only son to be tormented and tortured for you and your loved ones to be saved? What will you say? I urge you to take action today and start your training. When it is all over here and the Lord is ready for you, be prepared to stand before the throne with confidence and answer the Lord Almighty that you fought all the way through.

I have chosen to win mine for me and my family or die trying! The END RESULT is worth it to me. Will you choose to make the sacrifice as Jesus did for us - for you and your family – your grand children? Or will you continue to CHOOSE to live as a pawn in the ruler of this land –allowing the ruler to continue toy with you and your family? Do you want him to keep stealing all of your blessings? Do you want to disappoint the Lord Almighty? Remember what he sacrificied for us - his only son by way of torment and torture.

The CHOICE was presented before Jesus and he CHOOSE to do it for us.

What will be your CHOICE?

In Jesus name. Amen…
