Our Father Is Always Present!

Fear keeps us from surrendering fully to The Way and Thoughts of Our Father - Fear, from The Spiritual perspective, also let us know that Our Father is An Awesome God and He Reigns and because He Reigns and I am in Him - I Praise Him from Whom All Blessings flow - I reverence My Daddy because He is Supreme - The Holy Spirit told me so!
Isaiah 55:11 “11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”
We quote this text often, but do we fully commit to The Word and Power of it?
God has already sent His Word forth - We know this - It is up to you and me to Fully Commit to His Ways and His Commandments!
I realize that religion taught us we cannot think like God, and His Ways are too much higher than our ways - But the bible declares that we are to seek Him while He is near - if He is near, then that lets me know He is not too high, nor too wide that I am not able to grasps hold of His Ways or Thoughts!
Isaiah 55:7-9 “7 Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the Lord, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon. 8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord. 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.”
Do not miss The Visitation because you are awaiting for The Word to fit within your own understanding - As my Bishop said; “There are some things that must be caught. . .” In other words; it may not come to you as you desire it to, but it is for you to catch because The Word that has gone forth is for you - “He that has an ear, let him hear. . .”
Jesus spoke in parables - Many times they were perplexed, primarily because they were awaiting for it to line up with what Moses taught!
Some of us were taught to look at The Pastor as just a mere man, or woman - In which is not Biblical (I will have to teach you all on that another time) but the Bible says in Hebrews 13:7 “7 Remember those who rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct.” Hebrews 13:17 “17 Obey those who rule over you, and be submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you.”
The religious leaders during Christs’ Dispensation were so perplexed by Him being a prophet, The Messiah from Galilee - they plotted and attempted to kill Him!
They refuse to fully commit their thinking to The New Covenant - Because He was not who they thought He should be - John 7:37-43 “37 On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. 38 He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” 39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. 40 Therefore many from the crowd, when they heard this saying, said, “Truly this is the Prophet.” 41 Others said, “This is the Christ.” But some said, “Will the Christ come out of Galilee? 42 Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the seed of David and from the town of Bethlehem, where David was?” 43 So there was a division among the people because of Him.”
Because they were so committed to the Mosaic Law - they refuse to know Him Whom wold fulfill the law and give them Grace!
They refused to realize that they must debug their thinking and let their minds be reprogrammed to The New!
If you are not fully committed to His Will and His Way, you will allow yourself to be moved by the circumstances of life, which will cause you to bring into question, The Promises of God!
Jesus said; “If anyone thirst, allow it to be that you come to Me and drink from Me and you thinking will be renewed with knowledge of everlasting Water (The Holy Spirit)
You must allow your mind to be renewed transformed, and not conformed to the language of the world! It won’t sustain you nor provide nutrients for your health!
The Bible declares in Hebrews 13: 9 “9 Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been occupied with them.”
Established: To make firm; to make strong; to establish; to fix; to make fast; to strengthen; to set.
Whatever you allow to occupy your thinking will carry you away! Proverbs 16:3 “3 Commit your works to the Lord, And your thoughts will be established.”
Truth be told, there are areas in our thinking that we do not allow The Holy Spirit Whom is willing to guide us, change us and transform us -
When I make up in my mind to fully surrender to His Will and His Way - I then will become established and have a confidence in knowing His Word is for me and His Word is True!
That Grace is my portion! Yes, me too!
Regardless of what the shame is, or what mistakes I may have made, Grace pleaded my case!
I have a Guarantee From Our Father!
I will not be hungry! Isaiah 55:1 “1 “Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk Without money and without price.”
That word “Ho” relates to “Listen” - Remember “I am no longer just hearing, I am listening!” - His Word saturates me so that I am weighed down by His blessed assurance in His Word, I just trust what He says!
I am strengthen when I feel weak - I am ready, set, made firm because of His Word!
Therefore; my heart remains stead-fast (holding strong) because I have tasted and seen that The Lord is Good - Better than Good - He is Great - Sustaining!
God says to come into the waters, regardless of your current status you are welcome to enter in!
Stop trying to determine how you are going to pay for it - just enter in!
Stop being ashamed because you feel as if some think you are there for a handout - I need it so therefore I receive it - In Jesus Name!
Free your mind from frustration because you are thirsty and realize that The Great I AM will provide water and food that will cause me to never thirst or hunger again!
Therefore, I fully commit to my Father’s Word because His Word provides the nutrients that will keep me strong!
Commit: To entrust; to commit; to deposit; to trust; to believe; to have faith in; to confide in; to have confidence in.
The Prophet says to everyone; Come. . . When Jesus said to Peter, as he got out of the boat - Come - Peter fully committed himself to The Word of The Lord! Isaiah 55:12-13 (NKJV) 12  "For you shall go out with joy, And be led out with peace; The mountains and the hills Shall break forth into singing before you, And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. 13  Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress tree, And instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree; And it shall be to the LORD for a name, For an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off."
The reason I have Joy is because I am committed fully to His Word and I realize now, that because I am fully committed - I am in the realm of “In Stead Of” “In Stead Of” = Stead - Substitution (Place - Same Place)
Jesus Christ - The Propitiation as me - Sacrificed as me!
I said last week - “Get Away From My Sacrifice!” - Where I am right now has cost me too much to get here - I cannot allow anything, nor any-thoughts to hinder me from believing and trusting My Father Fully!
“A double minded man is unstable in all his ways” - The Word just told me that I am established because of Grace! I am not like Revelation 3:16 “16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.”
The reason the Church of Laodecia received such a staunch warning was because the church were more focused on their riches and less on The Source of The Riches - (Where your heart/mind is, there your treasure will be also) The Lord Says To The Church: “you are neither cold nor hot” (Referencing The Water System)
I am fully committed to His Way now because I know that His Ways are my ways and His Thoughts are my Thoughts - I let the Mind that was in Christ, be also in me!
There is no time for half-stepping (Big Daddy Kane) - Full Commitment Required from this day forth!
Galatians 2:20 “20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.”
The Promise - This cost Him Too much and you as well - Hebrews 13:15 “15 Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.”
