THE SIN OF THE REJECTED SOUL

THE SIN OF THE REJECTED SOUL
July 30, 2014 at 9:39am



I KNOW YOU'RE PROBABLY THINKING "WHAT SIN COULD I POSSIBLY HAVE WHEN OTHER'S HAVE SINNED AGAINST ME BY REJECTING ME?" WELL THAT WAS MY QUESTION TO WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT DROPPED THIS SHORT TEACHING IN MY SPIRIT, AND THIS IS HOW THE SPOKE TO ME CONCERNING THE "REJECTED SOUL":

LIKE MOST THINGS IN LIFE IF YOU ALLOW IT TO REMAIN IN HIDDEN IN THE DARKNESS OF A WOUNDED SOUL REJECTION WILL PRODUCE "TAINTED FRUIT", FRUIT IS SIMPLY A TERM USED TO DESCRIBE "MULTIPLICATION AFTER IT'S OWN KIND", I.E., THE "REJECTED" BECOME THOSE WHO "REJECT" AND ABUSE OTHERS.

A PERSON WHO HAS ALLOWED THE WOUND OF REJECTION TO FESTER, FERMENT AND BRING FORTH THE TAINTED FRUIT OF BECOMING THE REJECTOR, NOT ONLY REJECTS OTHER PEOPLE BUT THEY MAY EVEN REJECT KNOWLEDGE (...BECAUSE YOU REJECT KNOWLEDGE YOU WILL BE NO PRIEST (OR WALK IN LEADERSHIP) TO ME (HOSEA 4:6), KNOWLEDGE REGARDING FORGIVENESS, HEALING AND DELIVERANCE OR ANY OTHER KNOWLEDGE THAT WILL SET THEM FREE, BUT THEY WILL RECEIVE THE KNOWLEDGE OF EVIL THAT WILL SUPPORT THEIR RIGHT TO STAY BITTER BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THEM THROUGH REJECTION.

THEY WILL BECOME SOMEONE WHO REJECTS THE TRUTH FOR LIES AND DECEPTION, CALLING EVIL GOOD AND GOOD EVIL. THE ROOT THAT FEEDS TAINTED FRUIT IS THE SIN OF: "UNFORGIVENESS" AND MUST BE UPROOTED BEFORE "WHOLE TRUTH" CAN BRING HEALING AND CLEANSING FOR THE SEED (WORD OF GOD) TO BE SOWN IN THE NEWLY PREPARED GROUND OF THE HEART TO PRODUCE THE "FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT".

ANOTHER TAINTED FRUIT OR SIN OF THE REJECTED SOUL IS "DOUBT": YOU BEGAN TO BELIEVE THAT NO ONE WILL EVER FULLY RECEIVE YOU OR LOVE YOU BECAUSE THAT PERSON OR THOSE PEOPLE DIDN'T LOVE YOU AND RECEIVE YOU. BECAUSE YOU HAVE DEVELOPED THE SEED OF DOUBT YOU BEGAN TO ACT OUT WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART ABOUT YOURSELF NOW BY BEING AND UNATTRACTIVE THINGS THROUGH YOUR ATTITUDE, YOUR WAY OF DRESSING, YOUR WAY OF RELATING TO PEOPLE ETC., AND YOU START SABOTAGING EVERY GOD GIVEN OPPORTUNITY TO BE LOVED, RECEIVED AND FAVORED THAT YOU MAY HAVE GODS BEST LIFE NOW. IT'S LIKE THAT SINKING FEELING IN YOUR GUT WHENEVER HOPE AND FAITH TRY TO RESURRECT IN YOU HEART, THAT "SINKING GUT FEELING OF FAILURE" WILL CAUSE YOUR EXPECTATION (EXPECTATION IS A SIGN OF HOPE AND FAITH IN ACTION) TO JUST WITHER AWAY AND THEN YOU RECEIVE JUST WHAT YOU NEGATIVELY EXPECT WHICH IS "NOTHING" AND THAT REINFORCES THE LIES OF THE ENEMY.

THE THIRD TAINTED FRUIT OR SIN OF THE REJECTED SOUL IS "FEAR", THE BIBLE TELLS US THAT ALL THAT IS NOT OF FAITH IS "SIN" (ROMANS 14:23). WHEN WE FEED FEAR OF REJECTION BY ACTING OUT AND SABOTAGING RELATIONSHIPS AND GETTING NEGATIVE RESULTS WE REINFORCE "BELIEF" IN OUR FEARS. WE KNOW THE SCRIPTURE SAY'S "WITHOUT FAITH WE CANNOT PLEASE GOD" OR PROVE WHAT IS THAT GOOD, PERFECT OR ACCEPTABLE WILL OF GOD SO TO BE SET FREE FROM THE SPIRIT OF FEAR WE MUST FEED OUR FAITH THROUGH HEARING AND HEARING BY THE WORD OF GOD WHICH WILL IN TURN MAKE ALIVE OR "QUICKEN" OUR FAITH IN GOD AND HIS WAYS OF BEING AND DOING RIGHT AGAIN.

IN ORDER TO "RETURN TO YOU FIRST WORKS" OF DAILY BIBLE STUDY (WHICH FEEDS YOUR FAITH) YOU FIRST HAVE TO BE WILLING TO SUBMIT TO GOD AGAIN AND RESIST THE DEVIL THAT HAS BEEN SPEAKING LIES THAT HAVE HARDENED YOUR HEART TO KEEP YOU FROM FEEDING AND "RECEIVING" KNOWLEDGE THROUGH THE WORD OF GOD AND BY REVELATION THROUGH THE HOLY GHOST. RESISTING THE ENEMY COMES BY ACTS OF FAITH THROUGH OBEDIENCE, I CHOOSE TO ENTER BACK INTO FELLOWSHIP WITH THE BODY OF CHRIST ONLY THIS TIME I HAVE THE WISDOM OF GOD TO KNOW THAT YES THERE WILL BE PEOPLE WHO WILL NOT ACCEPT ME "BUT" IT WILL NOT BE BECAUSE I CHOSE TO "ACT OUT" IN REJECTION TOWARDS THEM, IT WILL BE BECAUSE THEY HAVE A NEED TO BE HEALED FROM REJECTION ALSO AND INSTEAD OF JUDGING THEM "I WILL" OBEY ABBA FATHER AND LOVINGLY AND COMPASSIONATELY/FERVENTLY PRAY FOR THEM BECAUSE "I TOO WAS ONCE LOST IN REJECTION" BUT NOW I SEE...SELAH
__________________________________________________________


  FATHER WE COME TO YOU LIFTING UP EVERY WOUNDED SOUL THROUGH THE EVIL FORCE OF REJECTION, WE PRAY THAT THE OIL AND WINE BE POURED INTO THEIR WOUNDS THOUGH THEY ARE MANY AND THAT THEY BE BOUND TO SHALOM (WHOLENESS IN EVERY AREA OF THEIR LIVES) AND BE FULLY RESTORED AND MULTIPLIED IN GOOD GODLY LOVING RELATIONSHIPS ON ALL DIMENSIONS FOR YOUR GLORY AND THEIR FULLNESS OF JOY, BLESS THEM TO KNOW THAT THEY ARE FAVORED JUST AS YOU FAVOR ALL OF YOUR CHILDREN BECAUSE OF THE BLOOD OF JESUS "YESHUA", THESE BLESSINGS WE ASK IN THE NAME OF JESUS "YESHUA"...AMEN, AMEN...

"WE WERE CREATED AND BLESSED FROM THE GENESIS OF CREATION"

Be Blessed
 
 
In this life we have many opportunities to overcome for we are challenged on every hand
it seems often like an undaunting task of wars and peace, wars and peace
In our seasons of war we may be engaged in internal strife with ourselves, it may be internal strife with our families and friends. Our warfare may come from our jobs, finances or health
but wherever our engagement with war
comes from
we can be sure of this one thing
we are predestined to overcome
and
subdue those things that come to overtake us in our daily lives
The mandate has already been given to us from the
beginning, the genesis of time
to conquer and subdue
 
GENESIS 1:28
 God BLESSED them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and SUBDUE it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.
 
We have been chosen and are created in HIS Likeness, in HIS Image
to subdue cause and affect
to take control over those things within our own nature
that hinder us from being
the Conquerors Father God has created us to be
 
Before we can engage the Divine Purpose and Call to "subdue" we must start from within
taking the yoke of Yeshua upon us to "Learn" of Him
for HE is our example of the Father
the nature of the Father
so we too have been Chosen to be like "HIM"
OUR
Elohim "Creator"
 
HE has created us and BLESSED us from the foundation of the world and therefore we should remember that
in any situation whether rich or poor
in sickness or in health
we are extremely
and unequivocally BLESSED
 
We are BLESSED to be a BLESSING in the earth
We are BLESSED to be a BLESSING even we are abased (in a lowly state of being)
We are BLESSED to be a BLESSING when we are abounding (in a state of complete fullness)
We are BLESSED to be a BLESSING when we are practicing
CONTENTMENT
In every situation
For as the Apostle Paul declared
 
PHILIPPIANS 4:10-14
But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at last you have revived your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned before, but you lacked opportunity. Not that I speak from want, for I have learned to be content in whatever circumstances I am. I know how to get along with humble means, and I also know how to live in prosperity; in any and every circumstance I have learned the secret of being filled and going hungry, both of having abundance and suffering need. I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH HIM (YESHUA) WHO STRENGTHENS ME. Nevertheless, you have done well to share with me in my affliction.
 
So I say to you what the Living Word has already spoken
"BE BLESSED"

WONDERING WHY

 
HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHY
Many Times we look back on our lives and "wonder why" after giving certain relationships the very best of what I had to offer they
still failed
You went so far as to change who you really were and you put to death many of your own hopes and dreams to build a life with the person who had given you every indicator that they would be there for you, and it seems the worst part was
you believed them
Over the years you have fought with yourself over and over again, even punishing yourself by refusing to go any further than where you were when you were with them
But at last you sit and gaze while the memories of the figment of your own imagination about how great the relationship was and find that you have only been deceiving yourself in waiting for someone to return who never had a thought of coming back
As a matter of fact they have long ago moved on, they have new relationships and have not once looked back
but
it's hard to think that this could possibly be true, but deep in the chambers of your heart you know it is true
but
you just haven't been able to "know it" and "Own it"
 
"You shall KNOW the TRUTH and the TRUTH will make you FREE"
John 8:32
 
I will be the first to testify that "Truth" is not easy to swallow, as a matter of fact it can be one of the bitter pills we will ever have to swallow in our lifetime.
But I also know that until I am willing to take the "bitter with the sweet" the life of love, joy, peace, health and prosperity
is unreachable and if I do attain it I will not be able to maintain it or multiply it and all because I choose to have life without "Truth."
I recall saying some years ago to a young friend that getting older was a wonder
she laughed and said "what do you mean?" So I replied to her that quite a few mornings when you awake and start to get out of bed
you may feel a pain and you "wonder" what could be causing it, time and time again until you get the revelation that "it's just ageing"
Well we often have the same question about the pains of the past and we say "I wonder why" and one day the revelation comes to you that will make you Free that "It's just life" and it's time to re-adjust make some changes
and
"Move Forward"
in spite of not having the answers, it's time to
"Move Forward"
in spite of never receiving the apology, it's time to
"Move Forward"
in spite of not feeling justified, it's time to
"Move Forward"
and
As you
"Move Forward"
one day you will find yourself saying
"it really doesn't matter now because i'm too blessed to be stressed over what was, what could have been and why,
it just really doesn't matter now because my past is in God's hands, my present is in my Heavenly Father's hands and my future is my Heavenly Father's hands and I'm choosing to
"Move Forward In HIM"
 And
I'm so very Glad about it because it feels good to be
"Free Indeed"

IT JUST MAKES SENSE

 
 
 
"We Know that All Things Work together for the good  for those that are called according to HIS purpose"
 
 
 
 
 
 
Father God we thank you for this time of fellowship and communion in your Word and in your Presence and we pray that as we endeavor to expound what is on your heart for those that will read this post that you will bless us to quick of understanding, wisdom, comprehension and the skill needed to feed your Sheep and your Lambs
Amen
 
 
 
As we consider the original text concerning "All Things" working together for our good when we are called according to God's purpose, we want to take the time to look at a few of the types of things that can "work" (the good doesn't happen just because) but things are "working" to bring about the unexpected end of the person involved but the "expected" end of God's Divine Purpose.
 
You see when we are in the midst of our trials and tests we are just not so very sure how any of this can "work" for good or for "God", as a matter of fact most of the time we get so caught up in the emotional frustration of the day by day moment that we can easily lose track of our Spiritual bearings and revert to the methods of flesh to sustain or bring us out.
 
But in our frustration we are often like the proverbial DoDo Bird making belly flops for landings in places and making choices that are totally off balance and off point for our future destination.
 
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight"
Proverbs 3:5-6
 
In the midst of lifes storms our first reaction has one goal in mind and that's to retreat from the storm by any means possible, it's called the "Survival Instinct"
but our Heavenly does not intend for us to live after the dictates, whims or even strengths of our base nature. HE has raised us up together and seated us in Heavenly Places WITH Christ Jesus.
 
Therefore HE has instructed us in HIS Word to "WALK NOT AFTER THE FLESH (Baser Instincts) but to WALK AFTER THE SPIRIT" (being led by the HOLY SPIRIT), that we will not fulfill the LUSTS OF THE FLESH,
 
For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.…
Romans 8:3-5
 
When we walk in the Spirit we are able to have the patience, faith, confidence and love that it takes to seek our Heavenly Father for the proper Solutions and Directions we need to shall we say "come out of our trials without the smell of smoke" just as the three Hebrews boys and bring God the Glory due HIM for showing Himself mighty as HE did in the fiery furnace with the Hebrews boys.
 
Our Heavenly Father want's to show up as the "Fourth" man in your firey trial, HE want's to be the ONE to surround you and keep the flames from kindling upon you or consuming you, because HE knows just how much you can bear and HE want's you to win and not turn back from your journey to the promised land. Just as HE took the children of Israel the longer path lest when they would see War they would turn back in fear and defeat.
 
Now when Pharaoh had let the people go, God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines, even though it was near; for God said, "The people might change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt." Hence God led the people around by the way of the wilderness to the Red Sea; and the sons of Israel went up in martial array from the land of Egypt.…
Exodus 13:17-18
 
The wilderness is just a little place on the way to the promised land, IF we hear and take heed in the wilderness.
 
The children of Israel could have been out of the wilderness in two (2) years but their newly learned mindset when they were in Egypt caused them to continue their fault of  always' second guessing God through "Self" motivation whenever they were in a test.
 
As covenant people we want to make Kingdom choices that will move us not only foward but in the right direction to reach our God given Destiny to magnify the Lord Our God in the earth. So before you make choices under pressure do seek the face, mind and heart of God for your life and you just might find that even the wilderness is a better route for you to get to your Promised Land.
 
Choose to Obey and Follow God
 
Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land:
But if ye refuse and rebel, ye shall be devoured with the sword: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.
Isaiah 1:16-20

HOW ARE WE NOW?


 
"How Are We Now"
 
All to often those around us would love to keep us in the box of our past to hold us back and keep us in the same cycles of pain and the agony of defeat we've been in with them for far too many years.
 
It is now and alway's will be up to us to move forward in spite of ourselves and other's who oppose your progress.
 
Let's take a look at our first true obstacle to progress called "fear," one of our greatest fears is "rejection" and there is no one who really enjoys' being rejected and ostricized and most people will do almost anything to avoid the pain of rejection and being on the outside looking in.
 
Another type of "fear" is "fear of the unknown", for some it's better to deal with the horror of the known than it is to deal with the uncertainty of the unknown, example: some women would rather stay with their abuser because they know they have a home to live in, he pay's the bill's and even buy's extravagent gifts when he abuses her or even takes her on luxurious trips and of course he buys her the most expensive clothes to cover up those bruises on her body from the seeing eye of the public.
 
So she stays' even when she is educated and very capable of taking care of herself although not in the style and comfort of having two incomes, "So she stay's" because of "fear" of the unknown.
 
"My People Perish for the Lack of Knowledge..."
 
When a person doesn't know their God will provide for them, open doors for them, send them help, give them divine favor, give them strength to rebuild, and loves them enough to fill those lonely night's and comfort them when they grieve over what the have lost "along the way"
they chose to "Stay" where they are rather than face the unknown.
 
And then there is the "fear" of failure, because they have never known or been shown the marvelous Grace & Mercy that God has for His children through an earthly parent, teacher, friend, acquaintance, school mates, employer's, husband, wife, child or family member.
 
Failure was always' met with harsh punishment and judgement meeted out in full measure and the punishment and judgement produced "Shame" and took away their "Confidence" in themselves, so they ceased to try for "fear" of punishment and judgement from those around them,
"So they stay" in their safe circle of defeat with their partner's in crime, you say what crime? The crime of "Faithlessness, fear and shame" along with those that are in the very same condition for
 
"Without Faith it is Impossible to Please God"
 
It seems as though Everything in this life that happens to us and affects us negatively is all about one end and one purpose, to destroy our Faith, Hope and Love in God to give us good things and to give us new life.
 
You see it takes "Faith" to move forward on a bridge stretched out over miles of water dashing against the craggy rocks below and the only thing you have to hold onto are the ropes or rails on either side of you, and even as you take those needed steps to get to the other side as you look down you can see certain injury or death lurking in the water's below the bridge.
 
"It Takes Faith"
 
To move forward into your life's destiny and it takes determination to take back your "Faith, Hope, Love and Confidence" after life problems have taken them from you. BUT
 
"Nothing is Impossible with God"
 
Moving out of the circle and cycle of defeat only takes one step at a time to escape into a world of possibilities that your Heavenly Father has prepared for you and no other person has the last say on earth but you and God and Only God has the the last say in the heavenly realm concerning your life.
 
"It's all up to you"
 
Your first step may be to change your phone numbers thereby cutting off the voices of negativity and temptation, the second step may be to change locations and start completely over but no matter what your "Steps" are you need to take the "First Step" to set Change in motion.

"ONE ETHEREAL LIFE"

I was sitting at my desk when suddenly I heard this word in my spirit "ethereal", and of course I hadn't pondered this word in quite some time so I looked the actual meaning up online and this is what it means:
  1. ethereal(Adjective)
    Pertaining to the hypothetical upper, purer air, or to the higher regions beyond the earth or beyond the atmosphere; celestial; otherworldly; as, ethereal space; ethereal regions.
  2. ethereal(Adjective)
    Consisting of ether; hence, exceedingly light or airy; tenuous; spiritlike; characterized by extreme delicacy, as form, manner, thought, etc.
  3. ethereal(Adjective) Delicate, light and airy.
Well needless to say when I saw the meaning of "Ethereal" I began to understand my life walk in this season much better. I must say I have learned and yet learning how to live a more Spiritually Pure life and truly the atmosphere around me has become airy, light, even breezy as I walk "delicately" before the Lord.
 
It has not been easy coming to this place but I know I have arrived at another place in my life because new doors are opening up to me and some lost things are being restored to me. I've learned to listen for the still small heavenly voice of the Holy Spirit and to recognize that when it is truly the voice of Holy Spirit speaking to my heart and instructing it gives me a feeling of lightness, it's not heavy and weighted down with fleshly pondering but light and life giving to my very soul. Like the "Manna" that fell like "Dew in the Morning" for the Children of Israel.
 
We often hear other's speak of a "new level" but this phraseology still seems to conjure up an earthy tone of self effort and striving in ourselves fuled by fleshly lusts to "climb" mountains that we have been told in the scriptures to "Speak" to and they shall be removed, they will skip away on the wings of the power of our Word's of Faith.
 
Eagle's come to mind as those God given creature's that have the internal instinct to wait on the "Wind" to carry them above storm's of life where they glide and float on "flowery bed's of ease" as effortlessly as a feather on the wind. To learn this skill sometimes may take a lifetime and some may never attain unto it because they've never been told that it is possible, they've never heard it preached and they've never read the Bible to allow the Holy Spirit to point this great possibility out to them.
 
Tragic it is to lack the "Knowledge" that you can live "One Ethereal Life", a life filled with the Holy Spirit and the Presence of Yahweh all around you as well as within you. A life that will cause your burden's to be "Light" as the celestial wind in the heavens that will allow you to breathe that same "Ethereal or Spiritual Life" into other's that they may "Know" their "Elohim (Creator)" even as they are "Known" by HIM.
 
Yes "One Etheral Life" is a life to be lived at any cost for we were never craeated to burdened by the cares of this life. Yeshua/Jesus instructed us to "Come unto ME all you that are "Heavy" laden and you will find rest for your soul's, take MY yoke upon you and "Learn" of ME for my yoke is "Easy" and MY burden is "LIGHT"...Selah!

OUR TIME IS NOT WASTED

WELL WE'RE IN THE NEW YEAR OF 2014 AND ON OUR WAY TO BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS OR MAYBE NOT. IT IS PURELY TRADITIONAL TO PLAN SOMETING ENTIRELY NEW TO CONQUER OR OVERCOME, NOW THIS IS GREAT FOR SOME PEOPLE BUT HONESTLY FOR OTHER'S THE BEST NEW YEARS RESOLUTION WOULD BE TO SIMPLY FINISH WHAT YOU STARTED A YEAR AGO.
