 SEPARATION

Sometimes God will separate us from those who choose to only know us by our wounds and have yet to trust the Sovereign work and faithfulness of the Life of Christ Jesus being lived in us by the Holy Spirit.

  PRAYER Jesus Christ NEVER taught on what we call "unanswered prayer." James wrote that a divided loyalty between trusting the Lord God for life and at the same time relying on the world's systems to get what you want will result in you not getting anything from God you may have prayed about. God will never reinforce the unbelief that flows from divided loyalty. THAT is not unanswered prayer. That is God saying, "No." to your request. God saying, "No." to your requests is not unanswered prayer. It is His grace. His "No" is just what I would want if I knew what He knows. The Lord also answers with, "Not now; not yet." because we are not yet prepared to receive what we think we need. God works in us both to will and to do His good pleasure. If I am praying for something God wants to do in me and the Holy Spirit is working in me preparing me to receive what God has in store, His "Not yet." is NOT unanswered prayer. As we see...

 TRUE LOVE AND JUSTICE WOULD NEVER REMAIN SILENT The holiness of God knew that the trajectory of all humanity was hell-ward. His justice and mercy sent Jesus Christ as the only answer to change our infernal direction. What I am deeply concerned about is that all sin, any sin not turned from but embraced, will ultimately end in such darkness, separated from all goodness and hope and only becoming more profoundly horrifying. For me to simply stand by and be silent as people walk toward utter death would be the most unloving thing, the most unjust and vicious thing I could ever do. If a doctor knows I have a devastating disease that could be cured but tells me that "All is well. You're just fine, hale and hearty." without telling me the actuality of my dire straits, then that physician is neither kind or loving but either evil or cowardly.
