Mistaking G-Ds Presence As Favoritism *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* Often Followers of King Messiah, Our L-rd Yeshua {Jesus} from Nazareth mistake an abundant manifestation of G-Ds holy presence upon their lives as favoritism shown to them, and unto others of certain believers, and misjudge the presence {Shammah in the Hebrew} thinking It is G-Ds favor, and it is not his Grace or Favor, but it is According to the Foreknowledge of G-D who sends the rain of his holy presence upon the just as well upon the unjust. 1 Peter 1:1-2 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* [1] Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, [2] Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* -- {Foot Note: by Dakes Annotated Reference Study Bible KJV} Professor Dakes reference said: and I quote, Since G-D is no respecter of persons, he cannot be anything but impartial in all his dealings with all mankind. He doesnt prefer one person above the next, neither does he seek to bless one person above another, when all people meet the same conditions, and love him with all their heart. The seeming preference of G-D between two men/or women is based upon the attitude and disposition of the men/or women toward G-D, and conformity unto his plan. Naturally G-D cannot bless two men/or women the same when the one is in obedience to him, and the other is in rebellion. G-D will bless more the people who conform their lives more unto his Holiness. Thus here it is totally clear that the Judgment of the L-RD our G-D will be to give every person so as his works shall be. Matthew 16:27. End quote. -- Yet the Abundance of his Manifest Presence comes upon any believer who meets the requirements to qualify for the constant unending abiding holy presence of G-D the Holy Spirit in their life. And the first {1st} requirement is a continual ongoing prayer life in a continuous mode of intercessory prayer for yourselves and more important also be continually praying likewise for others as you pray for yourselves too. 1st Thessalonians 5:17,19,21-23 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* [17] Pray without ceasing. [19] Quench not the Spirit. [21] Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. [22] Abstain from all appearance of evil. [23] And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* -- The second {2nd} requirement is total obedience to the commands of G-D the Holy Spirit, the same is G-D the Holy Ghost. Deuteronomy 28:1 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* [1] And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: AND: Joshua 1:8-9 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* [8] This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. [9] Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* The third {3rd} requirement is that you continually preform regular routine self reflection, and also inspection of your own character searching for secretly hidden faults, snares, and flaws in your own life, praying for the assistance of G-D the Precious Holy Spirit to remove them from you, and aid you in self disciplining yourself to remain free from the character flaws he removed from you. Ephesians 6:12-13,18 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. [13] Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. [18] Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; AND: 2 Timothy 2:15 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* [15] Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* -- And fourthly {4th} it is required that you endeavor to achieve to become better servants, and asking the Father to accomplish what he has accomplished in you, to do so for those following you as you follow Him. 2 Peter 1:1-10 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* [1] Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: [2] Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, [3] According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: [4] Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. [5] And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; [6] And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; [7] And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. [8] For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. [9] But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. [10] Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* -- And the fifth {5th} and final requirement is to remain teachable and impressionable as a child is, and always be open to the directions you receive from G-D the Holy Spirit, and get ready for tomorrow to begin the whole process all over again until he calls you home to stand before his blessed Face for we here in the Bootcamp of the Army of the L-RD Do Not Accept Failure to Overcome. You will either overcome, or you will re-take the same trial until you do overcome. This is Bootcamp, and we are being transformed into soldiers in the Army of the L-RD. Failure is Not Accepted, There Are No Exceptions to that Rule. When we stand before him in his Holy Presence we shall hear him say, Well Done my Good and Faithful Servant. Enter now into the Joy of Your L-rd Matthew 5:43-44 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* -- [43] Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. [44] But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; AND: Matthew 18:1-5 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* -- [1] At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? [2] And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, [3] And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. [4] Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. [5] And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. AND: Matthew 25:14-21 KJV *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* -- [14] For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. [15] And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. [16] Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. [17] And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. [18] But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lords money. [19] After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. [20] And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. [21] His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. [22] He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. [23] His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. [24] Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: [25] And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. [26] His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: [27] Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. [28] Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. [29] For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. [30] And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. *•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•* Voice of the Prophetic Updates
