I thank You for the personal time that You give to us, O Lord!  I see how the things that were said on yesterday were for our benefit!  You took time with us to teach us and to show us errors!  Thank You for having each of us to examine ourselves!  I have zeal to work, because You gave me the zeal.  I did wonder why the man did not call and ask for me, or say that he had gotten one of my CDs that I left.  It is not for my glory, but I wondered about this.  I was the one who had been given the initiative to distribute but it was not my CD that was picked up.  Even when the man called, it was not me who got to talk to him!  I was happy that a contact was made, no matter whose CD it was, because we are not in competition with one another, this is for the saving of souls!  But when the Lord started to speak to us, yesterday, about this, I began to understand that this was all the Lord's doing!  It is true that people do need to get a chance to see how well do they minister to others!  Was the man leading the conversation and going where he wanted to go?  Yes, he was!  I heard very little of the conversation, but what I did hear was the man doing a lot of talking.  I was given to pray for the help of the speaker, so that he could speak those things that he has heard.  But that was also something the Lord was talking about on yesterday, about how well are we given to listen.  The things that the Lord has been speaking to us lately were the things that came up in the conversation.  But it is not the words that we speak that does the work, it is the spirit in which we speak it!  If you speak unsure about yourself and your words, then that is what you are communicating to the other person! 

I also know that the entire focus was not on the conversation.  I know that this could have been handled better.  But I saw in myself, how the urge was there to take over and to speak to the man myself, but that would not be right either!  So the Lord gave me to pray for the help of the one that was talking!

I learned a lot on yesterday, even to a point where I was doing it again, by not allowing the Lord to give me what He has decided!  I was concerned again about my van, that has now been sitting for over a month!  I was given to do one thing and that was to ask the Lord what is His Decision about the van!  I started to hear ideas again, about buying another vehicle and also getting this one fixed!  But what did the Lord say about this one?  He had not said anything yet on it!

There are times that we want to do something so bad, and even though we ask the Lord for counsel, we already have in our minds what we want to do, so the Lord says, "Go ahead!" 

We are not to get so impatient, that we run off and do something that we were not supposed to do!  That is where that saying comes from, which says, "Jumping Jehoshaphat!"  Jehoshaphat was a man who would always jump up and do something, without consulting the Lord, first!  His business ventures that he would go into, with wicked relatives, would always crash!  But finally, one day, Jehoshaphat learned, after God sank all of his ships, that it was not good to just jump up and go into something!  Amen!

This same impatience is what Saul showed when he could not wait for Samuel to come.  He just jumped up and did what he wanted to do!

This is true with me, too, O Lord!  I do this.  I get ideas and I think they are of the Lord, and I go and do them.  Then I find out, after the fact, that this was not of God, and I am in all kinds of trouble! 

Not always will the Lord bail us out of trouble that we keep on getting ourselves into!

So, because God spends so much time on us, do you not think that He expects a lot from us?  It would be better if we had never heard one single word that the Lord had said, than for us to hear what He is saying and not do it!  AMEN!

Learning to Respect No!

We were asked a question yesterday.  Do we appreciate when God tells us "no"?  Our answers go to God and not to the person who asked the question!  There are times when people have said, "Something told me not to go there!" but they went anyway, and got into an accident, or something else bad happened!  They should have listened!  God tells us "no," to a lot of things, in the beginning!  And we have to learn to respect it and to appreciate it!  He is actually saving us from getting into a lot of trouble, or even saving us from death!

You Got To Take a Leap of Faith!

Where did that come from?

Jesus was being tempted by Satan in the Wilderness!  He told the Lord Jesus to jump off the cliff and the Angels will bare Him up in Their Wings!

And people say this all the time!  They say, "I am taking a leap of faith!"  But who told them to jump?

Who told the Lord to jump off the cliff? 

God will only carry us, when we are involved in doing what He gave us to do!  He does not support us in our own decisions that we have made! 

I have heard of situations where people say, the Lord gave them to make a leap if faith and go out and buy a brand new vehicle, and that they are believing in the Lord to make those payments.  But yet, every month they are struggling to make that payment!  God does not give us things to cause torment to our minds!  If it was of God, and it started out in joy, it should continue in joy!

If It Ain't Broke, Don't Fix It!

How can you perfect Perfection?  People are dumb, but they want us to look at them as being smart!  In the beginning God made everything and everything was perfect.  But yet, some fool comes along and says he wants to make things better for us.  They mess with things and mess it all up, for the rest of us!  How can you make something that is perfect, better than it already is?

How much better could Eve have been than she was?  But Satan came in and talked to her and made her think that she could be better than she already was!  She sinned! 

But in these days, people always want to blame others for what they have done.  They say, "The Devil made me do it!"  No, the devil did not make you do it!  You did it of your own free will!  You chose to do it!  The evil does not force you to do anything!  You have to choose to do the evil!

Satan did not take Eve by force and make her eat of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil!  No!  He just spoke with her and persuaded her!  It was her choice! 

They Teach With Intimidation!

I have seen this, but never paid attention to it, until the Lord spoke this yesterday, through Xmeah!  In school, the teachers have a certain way that they teach.  They teach with intimidation and fear.  They always teach standing up and point out things on the black board.  This is the same way that they teach in Sunday School!  This is how we have been programmed that we are to learn!  This is true  and I have cursed this evil about myself!  I have seen it being done and I have seen myself do that, too, since I home school the children! I have seen myself using a white board to teach, because that is how I have been taught that you teach children!  I have also seen myself doing other things that they do in the school, and I know, now, that this is not right!  I have given the children English tests and I have seen how I have given them a grade, in times past!  But this is what is taught in the world.  I am always having to deal with subtle programming of ways that I have seen in the schools.  There have been times that we just sit and talk, and then there are times that I have seen myself acting just like a teacher in the school.

When we are taught by the Lord, through Xmeah, we are made comfortable and we laugh!  The atmosphere is peaceful and we do not feel threatened or intimidated!  And we learn a lot better when the situation is joyful!  That is how God teaches! 

So we laugh!  And what are we saying, that God does not laugh?  He Who has a Mouth, and created us with mouths, in His Image, cannot laugh?  Amen!

It is not The Vehicle You Are Working On, It is God Working On You!

We have to watch out for being anxious.  And we have to watch out for rushing! 

One of our sons purchased an older vehicle.  It is a 1983 Van.  The van is older than our son!  When he got the van, he had all kinds of imagination about driving it and doing all these things in it, but that was not the case!  The vehicle has been sitting up for 10 years and it needs a lot of work done to it!  For him, this is like getting a wife!

What woman is not going to have some problems?

But when he first got it, he was joyful and then some time later, he ran into some problems and was ready to "ditch the bitch!" 

We are learning to suffer long and endure with patience with things. Because with patience, possess we our souls!  We have to have patience if we want to be saved! 

Many people in these days get married, as they call it, and they have not learned to endure with problems when they rise up and they are so ready to abandon ship at the first sign of trouble!  So while we think that we are working on a vehicle or any mechanical thing, it is actually the Lord working on us and showing us our short comings!  Amen!

The Lord also spoke about how we have to do something about that old "nigger" in us that makes us speak the way we do!  What was done about those words and thoughts that went out against the van, when it was not working anymore?  This is a spirit that is in us, that makes us to say things that we do not want to say!  All of us have it in us, even if we do not see it, because what evil do we not have in us?  The Lord said that we are full of evil!  Which means we have all of it!  There is not one evil thing that we do not have in us!  Acknowledge it to be true and have the evil removed!  Even if we do not see it, acknowledge it and curse the evil, so that we do not have to see it made manifest!  It is better to believe by hearing than to have to see it!  Amen!

Be Not Many Masters!

Xmeah is a Man of God, and he does tell us what the Lord says, but it is not given to him to be a master over many things!  We cannot go to him to ask him how to do everything that we are involved with!  He teaches us to get connected to the Spirit, because the Angel is there to tell us all that we need to know with all that we are given to do!  Amen!

We get connected to the Spirit of God, by listening to the Man of God, and how well we listen to him, determines on if we will get connected to the Spirit, or not!  The Angel that is with us, will guide us and speak with us on what it is that we need to know!  But if we do not listen to the physical voice that God gave us to listen to, then we will not be able to listen to the Spiritual Voice, either!

I have had to tell people who come to our computer shop, the same thing!  I am not here to teach them all of the programs that they have on their computers, because that would be too much for me to learn!  But I learn what I use, and they need to learn what they use!  The same source that I get my information, they can get it, too!  But I know that many do not believe me, when I tell them the Lord taught me.  They look at me, as if I am God and I can teach them!

The White Man is Not God!

That is another thing the Lord spoke about yesterday, through Xmeah's mouth.  The Lord was speaking about how people say the white man is God!  And how do they do that?

When they say, "The white man won't let me do this," or "The white man won't let me do that!"  By saying that, they are calling the white man God!

Whoever it is that you have over you, is your lord!  If they look to the white man for opportunities, then they are calling him "God!"

The Lord was the First One, to have Equal Opportunity!  Amen!

Judgment Starts With The House of God!

Why would God judge people who have not heard anything and do not know what to do?  Judgment starts where the Word has been preached in Truth!

On yesterday, I was given a dream that showed a huge Tyrannosaurus Rex was in a building, that is known as a Church Building and it was destroying it and all of the people in it!  I saw God's Fierce Anger being unleashed against the people that are called by His Name!

But I also saw an inability in myself to stay put!
