Just Jericho It
God’s Presence
God’s Word
Faith (with action)
4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.
8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.
Abide:
to continue v. — to continue a certain state, condition, or activity.
transformation, freedom, peace, mercy, & grace.
Strength & the fruits!
The thing God’s Word needs is time! If you do *not* give time to just allowing His Word to grow in you, to bear fruit in you, to change you, to strengthen you, you are not giving it the thing it needs, you are not abiding in Him!
What ever is in you, the thing it needs to grow is time. What’s abiding in you?
The exact same thing that makes fleshly thoughts grow into fruit, is the exact same thing that makes God’s Word grow into fruit. It’s exactly the same thing.
3 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.
4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds,
5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
6 and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled.
If the thoughts you’re allowing to live in your head are fear, what’s going to come out of you?
How many if you were attacked by fear? Helplessness? Anger? Unforgiveness?
Did you allow those thoughts to live for even more than one moment? Did you kill them the moment they showed up?
Why? Did you find a situation bigger than God? Can God only supply your needs if there’s no injustice against you? Can God only supply your needs if there are no corrupt, abusive law enforcement?
You have two choices to dwell on: fear or God’s Word. Anger or God’s Word. Injustice or God’s Word.
The more powerful the emotion, the less time it needs to grow
if you give these thoughts even one second, you’ve failed.
because fear and anger as so strong, the VERY MOMENT, you feel them come up, GET OUT GOD’S WORD!!! INJECT HIS WORD! ALLOW HIM TO COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!
8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.
I’m not saying God’s gonna fix it, I’m saying PEOPLE filled with God’s presence, God’s Word, and FAITH are gonna fix it. AND THAT’S IT!
Cops don’t need your anger they need God’s Word.
Whatever youre scared of, is it Is injustice bigger than your God? Is law enforcement bigger than God? Are white peoo
Satan has ministers scared to confront this sin because the whole world is posting “I don’t wanna hear it.” Is people saying “I don’t wanna hear it” a valid reason to be ashamed of God’s Word?
Satan has white people scared of confronting sin, ‘cause we get on social media and we see people saying, “all you're allowed to say is how can i help.” Is people saying “all youre allowed to say is how can i help” a valid reason to be ashamed of God’s Word?
