8/25/05 From The Lord, Our God and Savior - The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy, For Timothy, and For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

Thus says The Lord: My people are disobedient and stumble always into doubt. How easily they give heed to every subtle and dark speech of the evil one, how easily they are misled.

My son, your spirit is weak and your trust is not yet mature, and this is why you doubt and ask for signs... Embrace My words and also do them, draw near to Me and I will draw near to you. For of My servants I require steadfast faith, one who desires to walk with Me in all My ways, a servant who longs to perform My will at all times and in every season. For I tell you the truth, stronger is the man who overcomes than he who has received a sign.
Even so, signs will come. Lo, many have been given you already, yet you have failed to see. For the word of My mouth shall speak, and that which is most needful shall be provided to those who are willing to receive. For that which has become crooked shall be made straight once again, and no more shall My servants be turned aside by any means. Thus all I have spoken shall surely be, coming to pass before the eyes of many witnesses. And that which I have promised shall be given and received in accordance with your faith, fully realized when you have truly relinquished your life - nothing doubting. I am The Lord.

Thus says The Holy One of Israel: And what of your sins, you ask - I tell you the truth, they are forgiven! For I died, and behold, I am risen! In My own blood were you washed, by My stripes were you healed, even from the beginning!... Beloved, all is forgiven you! Your sins past, present, and yes, even those of tomorrow! For I know your heart and the love which you have for Me. Therefore make your love perfect by obedience, and no longer let your flesh rule over you or prevent you by any means. For I know you, Timothy; I have always known you, as you were, as you are, and as you will be, with Me where I am.

And thus I speak to My beloved, to all those who have ears to hear...

It is the penitent man who shall know God,
And penitent you must be...

Die to yourselves daily!...

Cast off the skin of this world
And walk with Me as I am,
And not as you would have Me be,
And all that you require shall be given you.

Do you wish to obey? Then obey. Do you wish to stay clean? Then stay clean. Doubt is your enemy, doubt is a stone of stumbling placed at your feet. For I tell you the truth, one whose faith has come to completion, having received the full revelation of who I am, will not sin. For only the face of The Holy One is before his eyes.

Thus says The Lord: Only One is without sin, YahuShua The Messiah, for He is of Me and I of Him; The Father and The Son are One. Yet the desire to sin is still within you, My people, and now also The Truth, and so the battle rages.
Therefore, beware. For doubt leads to disobedience, and to disobey God is sin, and the penalty of sin is death. Yet He who is The Way, The Truth and The Life, has overcome death, having written your name in the Book of Life from the very foundation of the world... What is left then? Only the death of sin itself, and the passing away of death.

Beloved ones, cast off your sins, depart quickly
From temptation, and to the accuser turn a deaf ear!
For I tell you the truth, evil has lost its grip on the redeemed!...

Therefore, hear My words and also do them;
Give heed to My speech and embrace all I give you;
Drink deeply from this cup, and be recreated anew!...

Says The Lord Your Redeemer.
