Stand firm in me and upon my promises. What can move you? The flesh resists my Spirit ye who will follow me? Put on Christ, be established in my grace. What hinders you? Do not say within it is not possible for all things are possible to them that believe. I see, I know. What is your desire? Let me be your one desire, me and me alone. Let your eyes look upon me and have faith. In my Spirit, in stillness, in peace. Your refuge is here with me, even in my presence. Before the earth ever was I knew you. Formed you a vessel unto honor, formed to reflect my glory, to lift high my name. Look to the East. My army comes. They shall not break their ranks, each man shall not be moved from his position. Their eye shall not spare the old or young, women shall become a spoil unto them. They shall destroy all that is before them and they will accomplish my will. Do not be moved. I shut the door. Enter in all who have ears this day, I will wait no longer. My patience, that which I have endured, is at an end. I will pour out my fury, all that I have held in my heart from the beginning of rebellion. Be established in me. Know that I am God.
2Corinthians
2CO 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Grace and peace,
Austin

Bears witness in truth Austin, amen.
God is always the same, He has not changed. Old Testament sin is still sin today. Gods words are a sword that divides, a scale the weights or a plumb line that reveals straightness. The question is, on which side of the sword, scale or plumb line will we find ourselves on. Not which side would we like to be on. Not which side do we hope to be on. Which side are we actually on by Gods measure or judgment. Man usually wants the easy way. That thought process clouds our ability to judge in truth.
Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
We cannot even know truth apart from God.
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 show you things to come.
Hebrews 10:15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before, 16This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
God made a way, it’s up to us to find that way. A mediocre, half hearted attempt just won't do it.
Philippians 2: 12.... work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
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.
Gods yoke is easy and His burden is light, but we must understand, that burden is not religion/ever learning and never coming to the understanding of knowledge of truth. The yoke is faith in the unseen, God who is a Spirit, trusting ourselves to Him, His word, submitting to His Holy Spirit, allowing ourselves to believe and speak in other tongues. By faith trusting God to do what He said that He would do. It's not by learning or memorizing God's word that we please Him, it's by faith in Him that we do His will and please Him.
