Correct, it is never too late to get on board God's program, as like a GPS device in our car, He is always "recalculating"! However, we do hinder God in His perfect plan for us, and we cause Him to "recalculate", and when we are finally standing in His presence, we will be shown exactly where we hindered Him in our lives and forfeited certain rewards that are still sitting on the shelf with our names on them.

 

 

NO! That’s not right! God is NOT “recalculating” like a GPS device! That’s what I was trying to tell you when I said that God doesn’t have any "contingency plans!” There’s no “Plan A” or “Plan B” with God!

 

God’s PLAN is not “recalculated!” His PLAN for the ages NEVER CHANGES! That’s the difference between the WILL of God and the PLAN of God. NOTHING that we choose to do is going to change that PLAN! God most often doesn’t share that PLAN with us! Instead, we read ...

 

Ecclesiastes 3:10-11
10 I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it.
11 He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
KJV

 

 
NOTHING you do will ever “hinder God in His perfect PLAN!”
 
We tend to see our decisions like branches of a tree, ever branching as we turn to the right or the left. God sees the ONE path from the “trunk” of the tree to the “leaf" of the ONE “branch" that we will follow in our life choices. Why should a God who already has "DECLARED the end from the beginning" waste His time with “contingency choices” - the other “choices” that He already knows we will NOT choose?

God’s WILL for a person’s life, on the other hand, is that he or she should do whatever he or she chooses to do RIGHTEOUSLY! THAT’S the key! It really doesn’t matter WHAT he or she chooses to do; it’s that he or she does whatever he or she chooses to do RIGHTEOUSLY! That’s the WILL of God for a person’s life - his or her SANCTIFICATION!

 

Here’s a challenge for you: Look up all the occurrences about the “will of God” in the Scriptures and see which ones are about “knowing” God’s Will and which ones are about “doing” God’s Will. That should be an eye-opener for you.

 

Furthermore, do you REALLY think that a PERFECT God will have unclaimed prizes sitting on a shelf somewhere, uselessly going to waste?! He is an EFFICIENT God! He’s not wasteful!

 

God will find a way to get the job done despite our failure, and often He will go to someone else more willing to fulfill God's will concerning that thing. Nevertheless, we do forfeit certain blessings and rewards when we disobey, even if it is out of ignorance that it is God's will for us to do a thing.

 

Yes, most of us will have unclaimed rewards at the Bema Seat judgment of Christ. It's because we are imperfect.

I’m not saying that we won’t have REGRETS at the judgment seat of the Messiah, but there will be NO "unclaimed rewards"; they will simply go to the one(s) who actually did the job.

 

Now, while there may be delays by our disobedience, our focus is NOT to be on the thing that we didn’t do or should have done, but rather on doing the thing in our present, whatever it may be, RIGHTEOUSLY. You need to understand that point, if nothing else. There’s NO SUCH THING as missing “God’s Perfect Will PLAN for one’s life!” I’ve actually heard of individuals, thinking that they missed marrying the “right one” - the one whom God had chosen as that person’s "PERFECT mate," divorcing the one with whom they ended up, and marrying the “right one” instead!

 

Ever hear the song that has the lyrics, “Oh, it’s sad to belong to someone else when the right one comes along”? I’ve heard it, but I haven’t taken the time to look up who sang it or any more about it, and I don’t need to do so. The concept is WRONG-HEADED! The problem is that GOD HATES DIVORCE! Now, please understand: there may be valid reasons for someone divorcing his or her mate, especially if that mate is abusive, but it is NOT in God’s WILL to divorce! Divorce happens, so it is part of God’s PLAN, but it is NOT what God WANTS! As Yeshua` Himself said,

 

Matthew 19:4-9

4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness (fierceness) of your hearts suffered (allowed) you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
9 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put away his wife, except it be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth adultery: and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.
KJV
 
That’s how strongly God ABHORS divorce! It doesn’t matter if one has married the town tramp or the worst “Hell’s Angels” member! When one is married, he or she is DOING “God’s perfect WILL” when one works at keeping that marriage intact! One may not have gotten into such a relationship righteously, but it is the righteous thing NOW to keep that marriage together and love that person as God does! And, I believe that this attitude applies to “common-law marriage,” “shacking up,” as well.
 
And, that attitude toward God’s WILL is the same for whatever occupation one might choose in life, wherever one may choose to move and live, or whatever church one may decide to join, etc. Whatever you do, wherever you go, whatever actions you choose to perform, do ALL of it with a heart that’s right with God! Live righteously as unto God, and God will make all the pieces fall into place.
 
Also, one can trust God to have put the things one likes to do, the people with whom one likes to associate, and the occupation one is good at doing in that person’s life. One of my past students liked sports, wanted to join the U.S. Army, and loved to teach. God led him to become a coach for West Point! God can take all the desires of our heart and make something beautiful of it, regardless how much we’ve messed up or how long we’ve been disobedient! AND, it is important to understand that THAT was God’s PLAN all along!

Hi Shiloh357,

 

We, the Body of Christ do not reign on this earth in the Millennium, nor is there perfect health there.

Shalom, Marilyn.

Well, if you don't, you'll be one of the few missing! OF COURSE, we reign with the Messiah in the Millennium!

Revelation 20:1-6
1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.
2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years (Greek: chilia + etee; Latin: mille + annium = Millennium).
KJV

That's LITERAL; it doesn't "represent" ANYTHING!

Also, while it is true that there will not be "perfect health" for everyone in the Millennium, explain to me how it's possible to have the First Resurrection and not have "perfect health" in your resurrected body!

Hi Retro,

Not sure why you are talking to me here but am only too happy to respond. Now of course I believe we will reign with Christ during the Millennium, but obviously it is where we will reign that is the difference. So are you saying that you will be one of the `beheaded` people that will (also) reign with Christ in the Millennium?

As to the Body of Christ having glorified bodies, that will be so wonderful. We will have everlasting health through Jesus Christ. So do you see your inheritance on the still sinful earth, with carnal people, diseases & death, (no rain brings famine, disease & death)? I personally do not see that as my inheritance in the Lord as promised. Where are your scriptures to show that that is your inheritance?

 

 

Marilyn.

Shalom, Marilyn.

I could be one of the beheaded people who will also reign with the Messiah during the Millennium, but whether I am or not, verse 6 takes precedence:

6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years (Greek: chilia + etee; Latin: mille + annium = Millennium).

The First Resurrection consists of more than those who are beheaded prior to our Master's Return. Thus, it doesn't matter how one has died, but whether he or she died in the Messiah and his or her willingness not to deny his or her Master, no matter what! Verse 4 is a SUBSET of verse 6.

Our inheritance IS on this earth, maybe not so much on the earth during the Millennium, but CERTAINLY on the new earth after the Fire and the GWTJ. You really need to see that "carnal" is not a bad thing. After all, we ARE our bodies! They are just as much a part of us as our spirits (breaths) are! There are a few facts that you should come to realize and accept:

First, we are told through a parable within a parable that ...

Luke 19:11-28
11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.
12 He said therefore,
A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy (Busy yourselves with this) till I come.
14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.
15 And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.
16 Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
18 And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
19 And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.
20 And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
21 For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.
22 And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, thou wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:
23 Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
24 And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that hath ten pounds.
25 (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)

26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

28 And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
KJV

These servants were given responsibility with the nobleman's (Yeshua`s) money and entrusted to turn a profit for Him. When they succeeded, they were entrusted with more responsibility, and He shall give them authority (the ability to govern) a certain amount of cities based on that ability. Indeed, the one who had done the best, received an eleventh "pound" because he would know what to do with it! The one who did not squander his Master's money but neither did he earn anything extra for His Master, was called a "wicked servant" (Greek: "poneere doule"). "Poneeros" means "hurtful," "derelict," "vicious," and "mischievous," besides other adjectives. It's like the saying, "If you're not progressing, you're regressing." If one is not "swimming upstream against the current," he or she is being carried away by the current downstream! There's no "standing still."

Another thing to understand is that a "soul" is the combination of a "body" and a "spirit." That is, a "breathing creature" is the combination of that creature's "body" and its "breath." And, that is true for animals as well as for human beings. In both languages, Greek and Hebrew, that's what the words mean:

Hebrew: geviyah + ruwach = nefesh

Greek: sooma + pneuma = psuchee

Look carefully at the original Creation:

Genesis 2:7
7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
KJV

Notice: YHWH did NOT form the "man's BODY"; He formed the MAN HIMSELF from the dust of the ground! He then proceeded to breathe into the MAN'S nostrils the breath of life; and it is THEN that the MAN became a living SOUL, a living AIR-BREATHER!

When one can accept the simplicity of this truth, it will make a WORLD of difference in understanding what a "soul" and a "spirit" are, when they begin, when they end, and the importance of the Resurrection!

If a person doesn't become a "soul" until the body begins to "breathe," then the "soul" begins at birth!

When a person "breathes" his or her last breath, he or she ceases to be a "soul!"

When the Lord Yeshua` returns and resurrects those who are His, we BECOME "souls" once again!

This also gives us important information in the prophecies that we read: When the prophecy notes that there are "souls" or "air-breathers," then the Resurrection has already occurred!

When one is a body and has a tongue that can be tormented in the flame and another is a body that has a finger that may be dipped in water to cool that tongue, then we are talking about RESURRECTED BODIES - RESURRECTED PERSONS!

It will also explain much in other locations of Scripture, as well. For instance,

Hebrews 4:12
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
KJV

the phrase means that the twoedged sword is able to divide apart the "air-breather" from his/her "breath!" That is, it is a colorful way of saying that the word of God is life-giving and powerful, but also is sharp enough to separate the breath from the air-breather!

When one is resurrected, one has absolutely NO guarantee that we will "have all knowledge."

Another thing one should understand is that the Millennium is a TIME OF TRANSITION! And, this fact means that our inheritance will GROW during the Millennium! 

Just as the Messiah will subdue His enemies throughout the Millennium (1 Cor. 15:20-28), so we, too, will take on more responsibilities throughout the Millennium. As His Kingdom grows, He will delegate more responsibility to His servants!

The Scriptures are clear that it won't be ... WHAM! BANG! We're instantly in eternity! There is this time of transition that will occur before the eternal state. One of the reasons for the Millennium is to correct relationships. It will be a time when people who have hurt others make amends and restitution for their sins against others. Even those who call themselves "Christians" are guilty of such indiscretion and meanness.

Death is the LAST enemy that shall be conquered, and that won't happen until AFTER the Millennium at the GWTJ. It won't be until the NEW sky and the NEW earth that "every tear is wiped away."

Revelation 20:7-21:8
20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.
14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
KJV

Hi Retro,

You have so many different views than myself that I wonder can we really discuss profitably. I do appreciate you as a brother in the Lord, & I know for sure that the Holy Spirit is continuing to guide us all into the truth so I may have to leave all our differences for now.

BTW All your topics I think need to be discussed in the eschatology/prophecy area & not here on Shiloh`s Divine healing thread. (don`t you think?)

God bless, bro, Marilyn.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
