THOUGHTS:
=======================
As I was praying today, the lord showed me a vision of people that were alive, but they had drowned, and their feet were bound to a large rock . It kept them submerged under water, and he said unto me, Lui, some of my people whether drown then to let go of the sins that is making them drown ,the very thing that is keeping them from elevation; he said they know that that sin is making them go under.
Instead of them releasing they are keeping it , he said to teach them the importance of holding on to me and letting go of the flesh he said in order for them to elevate they must know that I won't make them stay, but I will let them go so they can do whatever they want, he said the more I pull for them to come to me and show them the error of their ways the more they whether stay with whatever is bounding them.
Today, the lord wants us to know the life jacket we have we need to use it; some of us know what we must do to escape what's holding us, but we refuse to do this because we whether feel comfortable, some of us dont want to ask for help from God ,because we feel if we do that we won't be free to move and do what we please, but what we must understand that when we become a child of God , we must follow his will.
We will not be in the way we like, but we will be free in Jesus. How many of you want to let go of the things that your flesh is attached itself too, for the God that can free us from our mistakes and, burdens and woes? Let me tell you, friends , that God is ready to do a new thing in you, but if you are not ready to carry it, ask him how to get you ready !!
"Matthew 14:28-30 Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water."29 "Come," he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!"
See, Peter wanted Jesus to call him unto him, but Peter let the wind make him doubt Jesus or make him second-guess Jesus . When we allow things in our life to help us second-guess Jesus , we are bound to go under; stop letting people and things to drown you; we have to stop placing our eyes on people for satisfaction, we must place our eyes on God! God doesn't want us to drown, and God doesn't want us to worry, but when we constantly fight what he is doing in our lives, he will allow us to have our way! No he's not leaving us but he's allowing us to leave and do what we want !
" 1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs."
Some of us are allowing the love of money and the love of other things to cause us to wander away, and it's drowning us; they say there are six stages of drowning, "(1)struggle to keep the airway clear of the water, (ii) initial submersion and breath-holding, (iii) aspiration of water, (iv) unconsciousness, (v) cardio-respiratory arrest and (vi) death – inability to revive. When we are drowning spiritually.
1. We accept what the enemy says
2. We are tempted
3. We are in denial, & we need help
4. We get comfortable with the sin
5. We wander away from the truth
6. We accept the process at any given moment.
I have heard people say this they dont want to be separated from God, but they want to do what we want to do badly, and they miss the opportunity that God gives them to let go. God gives us a way out of our sins and temptations , but it's up to us to WANT IT , sin can separate us from God because we have place more love for the sin then our creator.
As the holy spirit showed me the people under the water, none of them were fighting to get up because what happens is we lose the fight and fire to live a holy and righteous life, we still think we are above but the enemy has taken everything away from us.
There are so many scriptures in the bible that tell us all we have to do is call on God
* Acts 2:21 And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.'
* Romans 10:13 For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
***Today Jesus has shown us all we must do to have life and bountiful one and not life that is under but above; we must let go of our sins emotionally , mentally , and physically,and be prepared to hold on to him, not holding on to our sins , and temptations, don't say if I just stay right here I will be okay, no my friends every person that came to Jesus or called out to him , he helped them, we must make an effort to call upon him and allow him to step in and break what we have attached ourselves too . ©Seer~ Prophetess Lee
