I think at least some of this depends on how one views the trinity. Jesus constantly referred to his "Father" and made it crystal clear He only followed what the Father said. Pre crucifixion He asked that the cup pass from Him but ultimately accepted the Father's will for Him. Jesus had a choice, but His choice was always to follow the Father and acknowledged the Father's headship over Him. It might be argued this was only temporary during the time He inhabited an aging human body. If He had not also been human He would not have had the capability to be crucified.

If we have three or four wills in the trinity, then we can have at least the potential ( in theory) for one to decide something different. I know there are those who will likely argue Jesus said, " I and my Father are one". I am not attempting to put any division between those two, they clearly are one in the collective Godhead. Made of the same stuff and function together, unlike the way humans are made though, God has at least three distinct components and can extend Himself through yet other beings when He desires it ( though these would not be God ). 

If God had been on earth at the time of Sodom, He would not have had a need to go to that city to survey what had been going on. We see God can be location specific. How does this add up when looking at His omnipresence? My belief is that He is omnipresent through the rest of His creation when He desires it. There was never a time when He didn't know what was going on.

When Adam and Eve sinned and were in the garden, when God came into the garden to look for them , do you think He wasn't aware of what had happened beforehand? When Abel was murdered, do you think God wasn't immediately aware of it? 

Though Lucifer was at almost the highest pinnacle of heaven with only God Himself being above him, must have been trusted like no other only to get pride in his heart and fall. While this example isn't the godhead, it shows God's created beings can fail Him. Even those at the highest places.

In my opinion, to say Jesus could not have ever failed is looking more at the Father than at a God/man who while on earth had weaknesses. 

I am so very glad Satan's plan had zero foothold, just as all of his other ultimate goals will end in failure.

    • 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.
