  • Entertainment

    What is the 1st part of “Entertainment” ?

    “Enter”…..

    What we see & hear becomes part of us.

    Continually the Lord points to the Eyes & the Ears being the entrance to the heart.

    This “will” become part of you.

    And from out of the mouth the abundance of the heart flows.

    [Matthew 15:18 KJV] But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man.

    It is time to turn off that Movie , silence that worldly music & ingest the Word.

    For what Jesus Christ did for us, is worth every spare moment. 🙏♥️

    Jesus warned us what influence the eye has on the soul.

    [Mat 6:22 ESV] “The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light,

    [Mat 6:23 ESV] 23 but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!

    How is great is the darkness ?

    [2Pe 2:14 ESV] 14 They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!

    Moses Commands Obedience

    In this instruction from Moses he shows how what we see can affect our soul. The context of this is “remember what you have seen so you may keep the Lords commandments diligently”

    [Deu 4:9 ESV] 9 “Only take care, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things that your eyes have seen, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life. Make them known to your children and your children’s children–

    Glory awaits for those who practice with their eyes , ears , heart.

    [1Co 2:9 ESV] But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”– (Isaiah 64:4)

    There is also a Spiritual Aspect of eyes, ears as witnessed in the following.

    [Rev 2:7 ESV] 7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will grant to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.’

    An ear to hear……….

    You cannot hear if you have been ingesting the Worlds “Entertainment”

    [1Co 4:5 ESV] 5 Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God.

  • Who is Your Cornerstone ?

    It is better to fall on the cornerstone & be broken to pieces than the cornerstone fall on you & grind you to dust.

    Jesus Christ was quite direct & explicit in Matthew 21 when he was speaking to the Pharisees & Sadducees of the day.

    He was describing exactly how they were receiving him , the prideful rejection of Jesus as the Son of God.

    Even the lack of understanding of King David’s Psalm 1044 years earlier as a prophecy was quite telling.

    ” The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of the corner. [Psalm 118:22 KJV]

    Jesus warned the Pharisees & Sadducees of the day , what the consequences would be.

    This translates to today & how caught up we are in our own worldly perspectives & idolatry.

    Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? [Mat 21:42 KJV]

    Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. [Mat 21:43 KJV]

    Speaking again to the Pharisees’ & Sadducees of that time, Jesus warned them of their impending loss , bringing the “fruits of Christ” to a nation who was ready to receive of him.

    And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. [Matthew 21:44 KJV]

    The amazing thing that Jesus states, is “whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken”

    When you are ultimately brought low & into despair , you fall at the feet of Jesus 🙏♥️

    There is brokenness & a state of despair, but only when you “open” to Christ Jesus in belief will you taste of the “Living Water” of Jesus Christ.

    The Coming judgement of Jesus Christ ,for those who do not know him, “will grind him to powder”

    It is better to be allowed to be broken, become opened & healed by Jesus Christ than to be ground as a powder & blown away by the wind.
