The Light

Reading from the Book of Psalm 119:105, 130...

 ¹⁰⁵ Your word is a lamp for my feet,
   a light on my path.

The study of God's Word brings light, which is something we all need.  We do not always know or see what we need to do, and many times we do not recognize our own problems.  We need God's light to understand ourselves and to see how we need to change and how we can cooperate with God to make things better. 

¹³⁰ The unfolding of your words gives light;
   it gives understanding to the simple.

Reading God's Word is like looking in a mirrow.  It enables us to see what needs to be cleaned up in our lives.

Fly Like An Eagle

Reading from the Book of Isaiah 40:28-31...


 
²⁸Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
 
 Quietly waiting on God encourages us, does more to restore our bodies, minds and emotions than anything else we can do. We need to do this regularly. I urge you to insist on quiet time with God. Do not let anyone take those consecrated moments from you. 
 
 ²⁹He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.
 
 God will empower you to face everything you need to do with renewed physical, emotional, mental and spiritual strength.

 ³⁰Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
 ³¹But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

If there is something we are suppossed to be doing, the Lord will give us the ability to do it. He will not lead us into a situation and then leave us there to face it alone in our own weak, human power. He is with us. He is our great God. he will harden us to difficulties, help us, uphold us and give us wings to fly like eagles.

Kettle Of Eagles Introduction

Reading from the Book of Exodus 19:3-4, 7-8...

³ Then Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain and said, “This is what you are to say to the descendants of Jacob and what you are to tell the people of Israel: ⁴ ‘You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles’ wings and brought you to myself.

When God calls a leader, He not only annoints that person to do a certain work, but He also places and annoints people around the leader to do part of that work.  That is the great truth Moses discovered when he learned to delegate some of his work to others.

God places certain people in each of our lives to help us.  If we do not recieve their help, we can become frustrated and over-worked.  God has created us to be interdependent on one another, not independent of each other.  We need each other.

 ⁷ So Moses went back and summoned the elders of the people and set before them all the words the LORD had commanded him to speak. ⁸ The people all responded together, “We will do everything the LORD has said.” So Moses brought their answer back to the LORD.

As the Lord has led me to begin this new blog, "Kettle Of Eagles", I ask that my family and friends to please join me in discusssion, comments, ideas, questions, prayer. This gift the Lord has granted me, thus far, has led me to learn many aspects of His Word, and teach what I am learning.  We shall become a Kettle Of Eagles, taking flight into Wisdom, Knowledge and Truth.

The Coming White Horse

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

John 16:33

This world is a hard place to live. Yes, we can get away from the fight for a while. We can find a way to ignore the problem or call it something else for a while. But in the end, we will have to fight. But even when things are hard, we can remind ourselves that we will win. Christ has won! We will be happy for him when he does well. In case you didn't know, the end result has already been decided, and Christians "win big" through Jesus. And this win is a win for life!

His Redemptive Power

It is essential that we give people the opportunity to act on the truth of God. The responsibility must be left with the individual as we cannot act for him. It must be their own deliberate act, but the evangelical message should always lead them to action. Refusing to act leaves a person paralyzed, exactly where he was previously. But once he acts, he is never the same. It is the apparent folly of the truth that stands in the way of hundreds who have been convicted by the Spirit of God. Once I press myself into action, I immediately begin to live. Anything less is merely existing. The moments I truly live are the moments when I act with my entire will.

When a truth of God is brought home to your soul, never allow it to pass without acting on it internally in your will, not necessarily externally in your physical life. Record it with ink and with blood and work it into your life. The weakest saint who transacts business with Jesus Christ is liberated the second he acts and God’s almighty power is available on his behalf. We come up to the truth of God, confess we are wrong, but go back again. Then we approach it again and turn back, until we finally learn we have no business going back. When we are confronted with such a word of truth from our redeeming Lord, we must move directly to transact business with Him. “Come to Me all of you who are tired…” Matthew 11:28. His word come means “to act.” Yet the last thing we want to do is come. But everyone who does come knows that, at that very moment, the supernatural power of the life of God invades him. The dominating power of the world, the flesh, and the devil is now paralyzed; not by your act, but because your act has joined you to God and tapped you in to His redemptive power.

Armor of Light

The angels that fell try to copy God. That's why they had their own children...the Giants, that we never speak of, and the Nephalim. 

I bet Satan told them the same thing he told Adam, "You can be like God."

God had a Son. And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory...

The difference is this...

God was 100% God and 100% man. The angels could only do 50/50. And that is a very long story.

Giants and Flood evidence in every country on Earth, and all they ever do is hide the truth, so they can hide the knowledge of God

The only angels that were judged early and locked in hell, were the ones that came and did that with humans.

Book of Jude.... quoting Enoch...

We really don't know much of anything.  We need God daily....I do.

I see we are no match fighting in the fashion of this world.  Resist the devil.  Let God deal with him.

You just shine a light.

Report the truth.

Lift up thy voice like a trumpet.

We are God's watchmen in here.

We are in the army of God.

God has called the frogs again.

God's Paradigm's are for our thick heads and hard hearts. Break up the fallow ground of your hearts. We need a goodly soil for God's Word.

Learn in detail about your armor. This is not a game!

"Put ON the Armor of Light!"

Note: To put on the armor of light is to put on the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the light and life of the world. In connection with this challenge, consider striving to make your living areas places where God's light can shine unobstructed. 

A Tested And True Faith

If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. Luke 14:26 In the Old Testament, a person’s relationship with God was seen by the degree of separation in that person’s life. This separation is exhibited in the life of Abraham by his separation from his country and his family. When we think of separation today, we do not mean to be literally separated from those family members who do not have a personal relationship with God, but to be separated mentally and morally from their viewpoints. This is what Jesus Christ was referring to in Luke 14:26. Living a life of faith means never knowing where you are being led. But it does mean loving and knowing the One who is leading. It is literally a life of faith, not of understanding and reason, but a life of knowing Him who calls us to go. Faith is rooted in the knowledge of a Person, and one of the biggest traps we fall into is the belief that if we have faith, God will surely lead us to success in the world. But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31 The final stage in the life of faith is the attainment of character, and we encounter many changes in the process. We feel the presence of God around us when we pray, yet we are only momentarily changed. We tend to keep going back to our everyday ways and the glory vanishes. A life of faith is not a life of one glorious mountaintop experience after another, like soaring on eagles’ wings, but is a life of day-in and day-out consistency, a life of walking without fainting. It is not even a question of the holiness of sanctification, but of something which comes much farther down the road. It is a faith that has been tried and proved and has withstood the test. Abraham is not a type or an example of the holiness of sanctification, but a type of the life of faith. A faith, tested and true, built on the true God. For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Romans 4:3 Abraham believed God! A tested and true faith!
