THE PLACE OF SAFETY – PART NINETEEN
Greetings dear and precious saints of the only Living God and welcome back to this Saturday Bible Study series focused on “The Place of Safety”. Please take a moment now to share this teaching as widely as possible. God is so good dear ones, that needs to be better known. Fear is ubiquitous dear ones and that should not be the case at all. We are children of the Most-High God and there is nothing bad in our God, our Heavenly Father. Everything ugly in the earth has its origins in our individual decisions. Those decisions that are contrary to the Word of God open the door for the enemy to steal, kill, and destroy, and the destroyer (demons) are more than happy to accommodate. On the other hand, if we will think, speak, and do according to the Word of God there is nothing but abundance and safety. Let’s hang out with Jesus, not ourselves or the ever presents demons.
Before moving into our Bible Study, I want to remind us all that Election Day is November 3rd, just one month away. Please be registered to vote and prepared to vote, and vote according to the Holy Word of God. Take the time to find the Republican and Democrat Platforms and review them. If you still have a question as to how to vote you are either in deep deception or just plain ornery and crossways the Word of God. Please do not vote for the death of the unborn, the promotion of sexual perversion, and the destruction of justice in the land.
2 John 1:10-11 (KJV)
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Voting for a wicked agenda (Democrat Platform) makes one guilty of those evil deeds. How would one explain that on the day of judgment? Now, let’s turn our attention back to the 23rd Psalm our text starting last week.
Psalm 23:1-6 (KJV)
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
Last week I spoke about the fact, yes, the Bible fact, that our Lord is a God, a Shepherd, of abundance, and with His guidance we not only have our needs met but our wants. Many in the Church are not too bothered with talking about people’s needs being met but become uncomfortable with the discussion of our wants being met and dare I say exceeded. Does a natural shepherd of sheep lead the sheep into the lousiest feed and dirtiest water so they can produce poor quality wool? God forbids!! Prosperity overflowing is part of the blessing and always the will of God. Poverty is never the will of God and is under the curse. We, dear brothers and sisters have been redeemed from the curse. First, let’s review the Blessing and how He comes.
Deuteronomy 28:1-2 (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:
2 And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.
Deuteronomy 28:4 (KJV)
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy ground, and the fruit of thy cattle, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.
Abundance overflowing dear saints of God is ours by faith, in love, as led of the Holy Spirit.
2 Corinthians 9:8 (AMP)
8 And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].
Let’s see if there might be something we can enjoy about the curse (sarcasm), and how the curse gains access to our life.
Deuteronomy 28:15 (KJV)
15 But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee:
Deuteronomy 28:18 (KJV)
18 Cursed shall be the fruit of thy body, and the fruit of thy land, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep.
Let us not be slack but look to make our Promised Land every bit ours. It is not greedy unless our focus is on it and not the Lord.
Lord willing, I will pick up right here next Saturday.
2 Chronicles 20:20b (KJV)
20 … Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
Until our next publication, as a Bible Teacher and Prophetic Voice I speak this blessing over each and every one of you, receive it, believe it, and speak over yourself and your family by faith in Jesus name! Quit asking God to bless you, you are already blessed, you have the Blessing, give Him something to do by the words of your mouth. Once you know the will of God, decree the thing (Job 22:28, Isaiah 45:11, Mark 11:23). (The Blessing is the Holy Spirit) We have left God way to long with nothing to do in our lives.
Numbers 6:24-26 (AMP)
24 The Lord bless you and watch, guard, and keep you;
25 The Lord make His face to shine upon and enlighten you and be gracious (kind, merciful, and giving favor) to you;
26 The Lord lift up His [approving] countenance upon you and give you peace (tranquility of heart and life continually).
