These two men on the road to Emmaus had planned a journey, with a destination. The journey changed, and they didn’t quite reach their planned destination but they encountered Jesus and their lives and all future journeys were changed. We are all on a journey, and some journeys are longer than others, and some seem to be on hold. God is with us on each journey and the journey is always speaking to...

Amos 8:11 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God, “That I will send a famine on the land, Not a famine of bread, Nor a thirst for water, But of hearing the words of the Lord…wandering…running to and fro…seeking…not finding…  Why? – There are too many voices. But…there is a hunger for reality – to hear a clear voice - ‘Please tell me - what is going on?’ ‘1Corinthians 14:10 There are, it...

Hebrews 12:25 … listen to God who speaks to us from heaven! When he spoke from Mount Sinai his voice shook the earth, but,"Next time,"he says,"I will not only shake the earth but the heavens too." By this he means that he will sift out everything without solid foundations so that only unshakable things will be left. Since we have a Kingdom nothing can destroy, let us please God by serving him with...

FROM THE GRAVE TO THE SKY ‘THE PLAN’ Chapter 21 (edited) At the moment of his death the cosmos convulsed. An earthquake tore a searing gash into the mountainside and people were toppled off their feet. A blanket of darkness fell over the place as rocks split apart and the graves and tombs on a nearby hill cracked open. People ran in fear, but they did not know where to go. At that moment there wer...

The soul is the inner part of us that expresses what is going on in us, past present and ? for the future. It does this through the emotions, good and bad, and the thoughts and imaginations. It forms ideas and opinions of who we are. But where does it get its information? From two sources. 1) What we see and experience on the outside with our senses. And 2) What we receive from the inside with our...

The man brought me to the eastern entrance. There I could see the water flowing out of the east gateway. Measuring as he went, he took me along the stream for a thousand cubits and then led me across. The water was up to my ankles. He measured off another thousand cubits and led me across again. This time the water was up to my knees. After another thousand cubits, it was up to my waist. Then he m...

1 Chronicles 13:2And David said unto all the congregation of Israel … let us send abroad unto our brethren everywhere… that they may gather themselves unto us 3. And let us bring again the ark of the presence of our God to us for we did not enquire of it in the days of Saul.” God was waiting for the enquiring heart of David. David was then moved by God to bring back the ark of God’s presence, and...

Exodus 33:7 Moses took his tent and pitched it outside the camp, far from the camp, and called it the tent of meeting. And it came to pass that everyone who sought the Lord went out to the tent of meeting that was outside the camp. 8. Whenever Moses went out to the tent all the people rose, and each man stood at his tent door and watched Moses until he had gone into the tent. 9. And when Moses ent...

  ENDURING TO THE END ROMANS 11:25 Because I don’t want you to remain ignorant of this mysterious enigma, in case you should be just fooling yourselves, that Israel has become blinded in their minds for only a limited time, until the full number of the rest of mankind who will be made right with God through Jesus is reached, and only God knows that number. 26 And then all of Israel will be made ri...

John 16:33…I have overcome the world. Romans 12:21…overcome evil with good Harm and evil occupy the territory on one side of the veil, and peace and love and faith occupy the other side behind the veil There are only two spiritual laws at work in the universe. Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. Romans 7:21 I find then a law,...

2Cor 3:16 But when one turns to the Lord, the veil is removed. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord. Turning, to see or to look is done with our MIND – it is what we are conscio...

Innocence is where God lives in us and outworks wonders. It is not perfection and needs tons of mercy. But our natural mind draws us out into the shadowy territory of harm outside the veil of separation where there is unforgiveness and conflict. An innocent heart anchors itself behind the veil with God. Hebrews 6:19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which ent...

Galatians 5:14. But if you attack one another (unforgiveness, anger, guilt etc.), watch out that you don't destroy one another. But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh (Veil). For the desires of the flesh (veil) are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh (veil), for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the...

Unforgiveness imprisons us in a world outside of Gods compassion and mercy not because he is not giving it to us, but because we do not see it. Only the spiritual mind sees this mercy and forgiveness – our natural mind is blinded to it, because unforgiveness is a world of darkness. It is the greatest enemy to sharing life with God. Unforgiveness and the guilt that comes with it is the underpinning...

Zerubbabel was the leader of 50,000 exiles returning from Babylon (A place of bondage), and he surveys the rebuilding of the temple. The Samaritans brought about an order from the Persian government to halt construction. Preoccupation with other personal demands on their lives and pressures that came from facing a time of radical change had drained their energies. Comparisons to stories of the glo...

There are certain questions for which it is hard for the natural mind to get an answer from God. These are; asking God WHEN he is going to do something, or WHY he has not yet done something or WHY he has allowed something to happen - what is the meaning and purpose? The answer we usually get from God is wait – and you will see. God does not mind that the natural mind wants to know these things. Bu...

On Christmas Eve of 1914 in the first year of battle (17 million died in the course of the war) one of the most unusual events in military history took place on the western front. The weather abruptly became cold, freezing the water and slush of the trenches in which the men were bunkered. ‘No man’s land’ was covered in snow that Christmas eve afternoon. On the German side, soldiers began lighting...

Two of the four gospels, Mathew and Luke, start with the account of Jesus birth.– Mark starts with the ministry of Jesus. But what about John’s Gospel? He starts way before the birth of Jesus – back to the beginning – the beginning of time itself, when the world was created. His opening statement is: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word WAS God.” Then in vs.14 Jo...

ABOVE ALL KINGDOMS  John 3:27 John answered and said, “A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven (- we can try to take) yourselves bear me witness, that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent before Him.’ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice....

Just as John the Baptist prepared the way for the Christmas story of Jesus’ birth, he also prepared the WAY for the Kingdom life of Jesus to be lived in us. Jesus spoke about John powerfully ‘forcing’ his way into the Kingdom, but Jesus spoke about this as ‘preparing the way’ for himself to finally release the power of his Kingdom life into us. The Old Testament often uses the example of one perso...

Any nation that claims to be a 'Nation under God' will at times have its heart revealed. (Matthew 25:32, Luke 12:48). Psalm 75:8. In Gods hand there is a cup of mixed wine. It is his judgment (crisis of accountability), poured out upon the ungodly of the earth. They must drain that cup to the dregs. The psalms speak of a number of cups in the Lord’s hands – There is a cup of salvation (Psalm 116:1...

There is a cup Any nation that claims to be a 'Nation under God' will at times have its heart revealed. (Matthew 25:32, Luke 12:48). Psalm 75:1 How we thank you, Lord! Your mighty miracles give proof that you care. "Yes,"the Lord replies,"and when I am ready, I will deal with the ungodly! Though the earth shakes and all its people live in turmoil, yet its pillars are firm, for I have set them in p...

Paul wrote Romans chapters 7 and 8 to open up to us the mystery and the paradox of faith. We are aware of two things happening at once – our weakness and his strength. God always present and God always active – but not seen. This requires a life of faith. This is the life to which we are now accountable – to fulfill the destiny of the person we were created to be. Hebrews 11:6. Romans 7:10 And the...

MEASURE OF THE STATURE God wants to be the best kind of a human being he can be through us (James 4:3). He was able to be the best of all through Jesus and he has ‘begun a good work in us’ (Philippians 1:6) – and he wants to win over our will to his (Philippians 2:13). And he has the power to subdue all things in us to transform us to himself (Philippians 3:21).  THREE STAGES OF SPIRITUAL GROWTH....

Hebrews 6:10. God is fair and just and remembers every detail of the love and care that you have shown to him as a person, through the loving care that you continue to show to one another.  11. We want so much for all of you to keep showing that same loving faithfulness, being full of confidence and hope in the goodness and blessing of God, and to never give up.  12. So that you will be of the sam...
