Prayed for man in Safeway parking lot

The Lord led me to a man, Steve, who had an injured hip, had medical bills from a recent stroke, and his car battery had died. In talking to him to help start his car we prayed for his issues, he did know the Lord from growing up Catholic, and his car started at the conclusion of the prayer without needing jumper cables. He said he knew the car would start without the jump from the prayer.

God is Great !!!!

True followers of Christ need to seperate

So the Lord let me know that 2017 starts the process of separation in the House of God, the sheep from the goats, the wheat from the tares, the Light from the darkness - holiness is this separation. I posted the prophecies on my Facebook Christian Tutor Profile.

The Scriptures to focus on are 

• 2 Corinthians ch. 10-13 
• 2 Peter ch. 2
• Isaiah ch. 58
• James ch. 2 and 3 

All this is to say check your walk with Christ as stated in 2 Corinthians 13. Are the fruits of righteousness evident in your life? Is the fellowship you are devoted to headed by Christ or people that claim to be representing Christ? Where is the fruit? If the evidence of Christ, which are the works of faith, are not evident in the lives of those in the assembly then a false gospel is being preached there.

God is the God of the Living not the dead, Jesus had to tell this to the Sadducees, Scriptural experts who lived in Error. They were the religious elite who ran the temple, were covetous, and in league with the political military elite heathens. At this time you need to separate yourselves from the crowd following after blind guides, wolves in sheep's clothing training the simple, the carelessly at ease trained to be goats in the crowd crying Lord, Lord as in Matthew 7:21. God's people will be destroyed for a willful lack of knowledge - Hosea 4:6

The separation is starting now in the House of God, you need to be working out your salvation in fear and trembling. The real followers of Christ walk as Christ walked. We all need to spend time in front of the mirror of God's Word (James 1:22-25) instead of the deceit of men's doctrines and ask the Lord what are the weeds needing removal. Don't fall for the deceit of church status being salvation.

The Lord heals man of Leukemia

I received an update from a sister at church two Sundays ago about a young man who worked for a brother at our church. He had a leg that became inflamed, he was from Mexico and approached the problem from a traditional way from where he grew up. Unfortunately, that meant he went to a witch that promised to "heal" him and took a fair amount of money from him. Once our brother found out what was going on, he was able to minister to him. The man received Jesus and was born again and started a year long battle of faith. A group from church met regularly to pray with the young man in the hospital. The inflamed leg was compounded with a diagnosis of Leukemia and then chemotherapy, we also knew the demonic infestation from the incantations of the witch were at work.

At one intercessory prayer meeting I was sharing with the brother about what the Lord was teaching me in regard to spiritual warfare and healing. He realized the Lord was showing me what needed to be applied to the young man's case, so he invited me to the weekly prayers at the hospital. The first time we prayed for him, the Holy Spirit manifested quite a bit. I saw the demonic influences on him burning off of him and evaporating like black steam as the Holy Spirit manifested as nuclear heat. He had recovered a lot from only 20 minutes of prayer like that.

So we continued to pray for him for the next 6 months, and as of two Sundays ago the sister informed me that the doctors could find no trace of the Leukemia it was completely gone. The young man had recovered quite well, we are now continuing with prayer for the remaining inflammation in his leg and recovering from the chemotherapy.

Also a few months back when this sister and I went to the hospital to pray for the young man we met a beautiful young lady who was going through a crisis. She ended up accepting the Lord, getting filled with the Holy Spirit, and joining us in prayer. It was such a beautiful encounter we were able to capture some of it on video here

The solution to every human issue is the Gospel

The Lord spoke to me about this lesson last night, since someone was asking me about current events. The Body needs to sharing the Gospel with everyone all the time, they need to be living it and talking about it with others. The problem is sin and the Gospel solves sin.

Tone down the knowledge get into the Lord's presence

The Lord talked to me a bit about knowledge and how it puffs up if the end goal is not Love. Knowledge is needed as a defense against deception, ironically being devoted to knowledge without love makes one puffed up to where the knowledge becomes deceptive. Thinking that you know will puff you up to where you'll be self-deceived by your own knowledge - the cure is being humble before the Lord and knowing that you don't actually know anything. If you do know anything it is because God revealed it to you, there's no boasting on your part - otherwise one only thinks they know something when they don't - they are thinking of themselves more highly than they ought to think.

So, based on this there's way too much focus on teaching in the Body of Christ, teaching, correcting, sheparding - it's disgusting really it is so bad. There is always need for good teaching, impartation, rebuke, correction, and instruction - then lay off the scolding stick. The focus is love, correcting someone in love is great, needed, and hard to do correctly. What I'm referring to is correcting people for the sake of the thrill of correcting someone - putting others down to make oneself feel good. I've been the target of it and seen it way too much, even early on been the perpetrator of it because I was taught wrong. People need to be honest about their insecurities, making oneself feel good at other's expense is what someone needs if they haven't worked through their sin nature with Christ. In groups like this, people use knowledge, authority, and correction as a badge to step on others in the Name of Christ - it's disgusting, the Lord hates it. Also, when the focus is so much on teaching and classroom experience - the actual Gospel doesn't get lived and shared. This is the deception of being a dead church, the Gospel is heard and not done, people have a form of godliness without living the power of the Gospel. It is an assembly of Walking Dead, Name Only Christians - the Gospel has been abstracted by so much talk that it isn't real, it is a topic of conversation not the Resurrected Power of Life on display.

The Solution is getting in God's Presence, when you do wrong and get into the Lord's Presence He'll rebuke the wrong off of you. Depending on how attached to the wrong doing you are you'll receive the rebuke along with it. It can be scary but the alternative is living in sin thinking you are godly, not an option in any worthwhile book. Often the puffed up biblical scholars don't often get into the Lord's presence which is how they get that way, being in the Lord's presence is humbling. So the Lord had me put together a playlist on YouTube to get people to tune out the world and get into the Lord's Presence. Turn it on, let it minister to you, let it play and meditate on all the words and music, let the Lord speak to you during this time. Go ahead and get the songs going in some other format so you can listen to them straight through without ads, they are all listed here so you have a good list for reference.
