Bear with me friends this will be a full meal. I know we don’t like to read much anymore but needs must sometimes.
Romans 3:10-20
10 As it is written and forever remains written,
“THERE IS NONE RIGHTEOUS [none that meets God’s standard], NOT EVEN ONE.
11“THERE IS NONE WHO UNDERSTANDS,
THERE IS NONE WHO SEEKS FOR GOD.
12“ALL HAVE TURNED ASIDE, TOGETHER THEY HAVE BECOME USELESS;
THERE IS NONE WHO DOES GOOD, NO, NOT ONE.”
13“THEIR THROAT IS AN OPEN GRAVE;
THEY [habitually] DECEIVE WITH THEIR TONGUES.”
“THE VENOM OF ASPS IS BENEATH THEIR LIPS.”
14“THEIR MOUTH IS FULL OF CURSING AND BITTERNESS.”
15“THEIR FEET ARE SWIFT TO SHED BLOOD,
16 DESTRUCTION AND MISERY ARE IN THEIR PATHS,
17 AND THEY HAVE NOT KNOWN THE PATH OF PEACE.”
18“THERE IS NO FEAR OF GOD [and His awesome power] BEFORE THEIR EYES.”
19 Now we know that whatever the Law [of Moses] says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, so that [the excuses of] every mouth may be silenced [from protesting] and that all the world may be held accountable to God [and subject to His judgment].
20For no person will be justified [freed of guilt and declared righteous] in His sight by [trying to do] the works of the Law. For through the Law we become conscious of sin [and the recognition of sin directs us toward repentance, but provides no remedy for sin].
This is the state of man’s birth.
I will not argue with you about it. We all know it’s a truthful statement. We can delude ourselves to the point we do not accept this factual truth. And you know what?
That is your God given right.
(Huh?!)
You heard me! God sent His Son to die, to suffer horrors unimaginable. To give humanity another chance. To take us back to the garden, to listen to the lies of the serpent (Satan) and choose… again!
Will we give our ownership deed back to Jesus and say “I’m yours. I want to be yours!”Or will we give it back to Satan and say “I’m gonna stay with you. I choose to remain formless. I choose VOID”.
Genesis 1:1-5
1 In the beginning God (Elohim) created [by forming from nothing] the heavens and the earth.
2 The earth was formless and void or a waste and emptiness, and darkness was upon the face of the deep [primeval ocean that covered the unformed earth]. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters.
3And God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
4God saw that the light was good (pleasing, useful) and He affirmed and sustained it; and God separated the light [distinguishing it] from the darkness.
5 And God called the light day, and the darkness He called night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
The Berean Study Bible explains “Formless” and “Void”as thus: The Hebrew words used here are “tohu” and “bohu,” which convey a sense of chaos and emptiness. “Tohu” can mean formlessness, confusion, or unreality, while “bohu” suggests emptiness or void.
Also the Ellicot’s commentary explains thus: Without form, and void.–Literally, tohu and bohu, which words are both substantives, and signify wasteness and emptiness. The similarity of their forms, joined with the harshness of their sound, made them pass almost into a proverb for everything that was dreary and desolate (Isaiah 34:11; Jeremiah 4:23). It expresses here the state of primaeval matter immediately after creation, when as yet there was no cohesion between the separate particles.
Please continue everything will tie together neatly.
Ecclesiastes 3:11-22
11He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]–yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end.
12 I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good as long as they live;
13 and also that every man should eat and drink and see and enjoy the good of all his labor–it is the gift of God.
14 I know that whatever God does, it endures forever; nothing can be added to it nor can anything be taken from it, for God does it so that men will fear and worship Him [with awe-filled reverence, knowing that He is God].
15 That which is has already been, and that which will be has already been, for God seeks what has passed by [so that history repeats itself].
16 Moreover, I have seen under the sun that in the place of justice there is wickedness, and in the place of righteousness there is wickedness.
17 I said to myself, “God will judge both the righteous and the wicked,” for there is a time [appointed] for every matter and for every deed.
18 I said to myself regarding the sons of men, “God is surely testing them in order for them to see that [by themselves, without God] they are [only] animals.”
19 For the [earthly] fate of the sons of men and the fate of animals is the same. As one dies, so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath and there is no preeminence or advantage for man [in and of himself] over an animal, for all is vanity.
20 All go to the same place. All came from the dust and all return to the dust.
21 Who knows if the spirit of man ascends upward and the spirit of the animal descends downward to the earth?
22 So I have seen that there is nothing better than that a man should be happy in his own works and activities, for that is his portion (share). For who will bring him [back] to see what will happen after he is gone?
(I wonder if anyone sees where we are going with this?)
God shows us, He literally placed Eternity in us. When He said let US make man in our own image He didn’t mean the fleshly bits at all. He meant our spirit/soul/character.
However as with everything because God is completely perfect and Holy. He does everything decently and in order.
What do you do after you make/build something? You stress test it correct? You make sure it’s operating exactly as intended. Why would our Holy God whom we get everything but wickedness from be any different? We were made in His image remember? The Angels were tested.
Even Jesus was tested many, many, times. So why would we not be tested also?
Up until this point the door to our spirit or soul had remained open. We were safe tho because it was perfectly filled with God’s spirit. However before He closed that door. He wanted to test His creation.
We know…
what happened.
Adam FAILED MASSIVELY! He gave his ownership deed of himself and earth to Satan. Forcing God’s spirit out of his eternal soul, allowing darkness and the nature of sin to fill his eternity where two abominations were born.
Void and death.
Closing the door on man’s soul, forever locking him in that state!
Or did it?…
Genesis 3:14-13
14 The LORD God said to the serpent,
“Because you have done this,
You are cursed more than all the cattle,
And more than any animal of the field;
On your belly you shall go,
And dust you shall eat
All the days of your life.
15“And I will put enmity (open hostility)
Between you and the woman,
And between your seed (offspring) and her Seed;
He shall [fatally] bruise your head,
And you shall [only] bruise His heel.”
Genesis 1:3-4
3 And God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
4 God saw that the light was good (pleasing, useful) and He affirmed and sustained it; and God separated the light [distinguishing it] from the darkness.
You see it right?!
The woman is of course Mary.
(My opinion: I also believe this adheres to every woman [the enmity; not the messianic prophecy] who surrenders her everything to Jesus. Becoming His disciple, then raising disciples).
The seed is also of course referring to Jesus! “Let there be light!” This is explained in this passage perfectly below.
(Bear with me. I told you this would be a lot of info.)
John 1:1-5
1 In the beginning [before all time] was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself.
2 He was [continually existing] in the beginning [co-eternally] with God.
3 All things were made and came into existence through Him; and without Him not even one thing was made that has come into being.
4 In Him was life [and the power to bestow life], and the life was the Light of men.
5 The Light shines on in the darkness, and the darkness did not understand it or overpower it or appropriate it or absorb it [and is unreceptive to it].
When you decide to give your deed to Jesus. Darkness and the nature of sin leaves your eternity. And is filled once again like in the garden with God’s God’s Spirit.
Replacing death with Life,
void with light,
chaos with order,
and the works of Satan
for the works of CHRIST!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
Now for those who are still living in the VOID! With my limited knowledge I do not know how I could have made this anymore clearer.
It is in the hands of God’s Spirit now. Holy Ghost in Jesus name please add the increase!
If anyone knows they are being called to become saved from the void like condition of your soul. I implore you now wherever you are to STOP!
Pour your heart out to LORD! I won’t tell you what to say.
You know what you need.
Salvation
Fellowship
Love
Peace of Mind
Light
That empty chaotic void inside of all mankind that’s never satisfied exchanged for:
The Way/The Truth/The Life: JESUS
Happy New Year!
God Bless!
Jesus Loves You!
I Love You Too!
I
f you have made it this far I wanna thank you for your patient enduring of this year ending feast. For my brothers and sisters let’s go into this New Year desiring to be Jesus’s disciples.
Let us understand together that God has foreseen, for planned, and “for acted” for everything!
Nothing has missed His notice! None of us are without His precious eye on our every waking moment! Let us live as it is so (because it is)!
Let us enjoy the work of our hands that He has given us to do! Let us ask Him what to do, if we need too. Then let us enjoy, our work in Him!
Mothers dedicate yourselves to becoming Jesus’s disciple if you haven’t yet. Teach your little ones early (from the womb) how to worship, (as they learn to speak) how to pray, how to sing. How to dance, (as they learn to walk) how to read (as his/hers intelligence grows).
Proverbs 22:6
6 Train up a child in the way he should go [teaching him to seek God’s wisdom and will for his abilities and talents], Even when he is old he will not depart from it.
Fathers dedicate yourselves to becoming Jesus disciple also. Love your children with a gentle firmness.
Just as ABBA loves you!
Teach them mercy, just as ABBA does you!
Listen to what is on their hearts and minds.
Just like ABBA does you!
See them for who they are, (talents, idiosyncrasies, pet peeves) cultivate that. Do not try and make a circle a square. Respect their inherent personality.
Trying to change that will do nothing but give that child undeserved trauma. And more than not, send him or her, into the arms of the enemy.
Ephesians 6:4
4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger [do not exasperate them to the point of resentment with demands that are trivial or unreasonable or humiliating or abusive; nor by showing favoritism or indifference to any of them], but bring them up [tenderly, with lovingkindness] in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
I have so much more I wanna write, but I’ll stop it here. Lord willing in the new year, I write for Husbands/Wives/Children and Siblings. However you could always go to 1 Peter 3:1-12.
My little thoughts are nothing compared to the written Word of God. It’s why I feel strongly about placing full passages on these pages.
God bless y’all!
Again Happy New Year!
