ELIAB’S COUNTENANCE

________________________

What may look good to you is not always good.

In 1 Samuel chapter 8, the Israelites demanded a king like the heathen nations had. They wanted to be like everyone else. Saul had been chosen as the first king but failed to do what God had told him to do, and the anointing of God departed from him, and he would also lose his kingship. 

After Saul’s disobedience, God commissioned the prophet Samuel to choose a king for him from the house of Jesse, who had several sons. The eldest son, Eliab, was tall and had a good-looking countenance.  Samuel thought that surely this good-looking man would be the one to anoint, but the Lord rejected him. The seven oldest sons of Jesse were all rejected. [1 Samuel 16:6-10]

The eighth son, David, was chosen. David had a beautiful countenance, but he was not tall like Eliab. Samuel anointed the boy David to become the future king of Israel. Yes, David had a beautiful outward countenance like Eliab had, but the difference between the two was that David’s heart or spirit on the inside that was unto the Lord.

While man looks and judges on the external qualities, God looks on the internal qualities. We must keep our heart and spirit pure and righteous [through Christ] before our Father God.

Let us not just “look good” like Eliab. Let us “be good” like David. It is what is on the inside that really counts with God.

FAITH IS AN ACTION WORD

_______________________

If I were to define faith, I would make it simple. Faith is just believing God meant what he said in the Word of God.

Faith believes before it sees it with the natural eye. Mark 11:24 says, “Therefore I say unto you, [Jesus is speaking] what things soever ye desire, when ye pray, BELIEVE THAT YE RECEIVE THEM, and ye shall have them.”

Faith believes without seeing. It sees the promises of God fulfilled before they are manifested. It does not doubt God’s word. It believes even when time has passed, and things look hopeless. Faith trusts God and His word.

So often, people say, “I will believe it when I see it.” That requires no faith. Because when you see it, it has already happened.

When we pray for our unsaved loved ones, we should always believe that they will be saved.   We should see them in their “finished work” instead of in their present condition. 

Faith is an action word. When you pray, you then act as if you have already received it, believing that God will supply every need. It may not manifest immediately, but God cannot lie; His promises are “yes and amen.”

PROPHETIC WORD

AS GIVEN TO HELEN SANDERS

Do not be surprised as things change rapidly. For what you thought was secure will not be secure any longer. I am bringing such a shaking that even the roots of many things shall be pulled out. For I am a Holy God, and I desire holiness within my children. Many have been riding the fence with one foot on the world’s side and the other on the kingdom of God’s side. You must make a choice my children to not dangle with the world. Yes, you go into the world to bring them out of darkness, but you do not stay in the world. You must shake those things loose that are displeasing to me and allow me to bring you into total submission of my will. For the days ahead will be so filled with darkness that you must not allow any of that darkness to be in you. Your enemy will certainly use any tactic against you, and has been coming before my throne already, desiring to sift you as he desired to sift Peter. Oh, my child, let go of those things of hidden darkness and turn to me with your whole heart. As I said, the shaking will be more intense than ever. Those that submit to this shaking will come forth in such a way that they will reflect my light and glory. Those that do not will be severely tested, and some may lose their life because they could not let go of the things of the world. For in this hour, I am bringing about a great separation. You cannot say that it is the enemy doing this, for it is your God that is doing the shaking. Spend time in the secret place and know that in that place lies the answer to every question that you have. Let go of all bitterness and anger my child, for it does not reflect the light. It reflects darkness. Be the one that lives a lifestyle of repentance for those truly are my children. Let things go and do not harbor any resentment or unforgiveness. I long for you to be free of these things my child, but you must be willing to go through the fiery trials that will bring your freedom to pass. Now, do not think that the shaking is because of any hatred toward you, for I love you with an everlasting love that will never fail. Be prepared and know that I will be with you as you go through this shaking saith the Lord.

Wednesday Word Of The Lord



Watch Me! Watch Me! I am not who you think I am. But I am everything you ever hoped I would be. I died to save My people to show you life ever lasting. So come up with Me. Come up with Me. I am waiting to receive My bride!

My heart cry was: Move mightily God, move mightily. Darkness surrounds us. But You are the light that I run to.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION

Just keep this in mind…IF you PRAY God will most definitely HEAR you. IF you patiently WAIT for HIM; God will always LISTEN to YOU and lovingly TALK with you. Then IF you’ll PRAY in FAITH believing…God WILL BLESS you as He WORKS all things out just for YOU. So Trust Him and He WILL make a way for YOU.

A Journey! HCC

Growing in Christ is a journey; small steps,

And falling, and getting up again.

The adventure of a lifetime, this journey is.

Knowing as you walk, you are walking towards

Eternity, your Savior. Your Jesus sees you.

He walks, talks, and is with you as you

Journey to him. When you get tired and wear

Down, his heart and love will get you up

So you can begin again. What a journey, what a

Trip with your best friend, your Jesus. Pack your

Bag of love and start this, Journey
