    If you've seen this video already on my main channel please forgive me! I filmed a new video today for this channel, but didn't have time to get it edited and I was very aware that I haven't posted on here for ages! So again please accept my apologies, and I hope and pray this video finds some Christian folks who have never heard this message before! God bless you all and have a great week - Joe

      Yes, the Lord will never let you down. Brother Joe is correct about reading and studying the Bible daily. Jesus tells us we need our daily bread, not just a small bite on Sundays. Jesus is the Bread from Heaven. His Word strengthens, warns, loves, admonishes, humbles and makes us wiser.

      🪶
      We do not have to be controlled by our old nature. Instead, we must learn to have a Spirit-controlled life. The standard for a Spirit-controlled life is the Law of God, expressed by our love.
      🪶
      The flesh and the Spirit are warring in us right now. But our strength comes from the Spirit; when we walk in Him, we don't fulfill the lusts of the flesh.
      The Christian life is a continual walk; our "footsteps" are repentance and faith. These are not things we do once in order to get saved; the step-by-step walk of repentance and faith is our daily practice.
      🪶
      The longer we walk with Him, the more we will realize the Holy Spirit's control over our lives.
      Stand Firm On God's Holy Word 🙏

You have made yourself the arbiter of Jesus' Authority as to what is or is not permissible.

      They will grow to hate the Bible if you do that. They will associate God with loss and punishment. Instead, set aside a 30 minute time where everyone in the house must come together. Technology isn't going anywhere and they will use it as soon as they are able. You can't make a child want to read or believe. They will resent you for it. They will see it as a punishment for being kids. At the end of the day, it's your fault for giving them those things at such a young age, and you can't just take them away. Let them have their toys but choose the punishment to be something other than the Bible. If you want them to give up technology, then you have to give it up as well, or they will resent you for it.

And he's done so much in me. It's beautiful seeing what he's done. But, now I feel very alone. I know he's here. And I know he's doing stuff. But I feel abandoned when I don't hear from him. This is so so so painful. And more had happened. I seriously feel that it's a spiritual attack, and God is using it for the good. But..

      @ArthurMagoola 7 месяцев назад

      I empathise with you friend. I used to be very lukewarm, but I had to stir myself up and I presented myself to God, no pretences, and I asked Him to help me. What followed was the best 4 months of my life when I was on a high for God and hungering for His Word in a way that I never had before. Paul said in 2 Timothy 1:12 "for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day." You have to come to the end of yourself, when you don't try doing anything under your own steam, but you completely trust Him and commit to Him and make Him your Lord. When you do that, then He is able to keep you.
      It will take some effort from you, and you won't be able to stay on a high but rather you'll have to discipline yourself and you may need to catch yourself from time to time. However, I have found that, when you find Christ, nothing else satisfies. I used to watch all the football there is to watch, and not just my favourite team. I used to feed on the news and dwell on the terrible things happening in the world, but since I started renewing my mind with the Word of God, I have found Him faithful and He has changed much in my life.
      Don't get me wrong, problems don't merely go away, and you still have to face them, but when you completely surrender to Jesus and receive the Holy Spirit, you will have power to live through those issues and emerge victorious. I would love to speak with you friend if I can help.

      In my Christian walk, I'm seeing more and more that sinlessness does not equate to perfect but rather to obedience to God's will. Sanctification >( to set apart)for God to work on us is the nitty-gritty of being conformed into the image of Christ. Paul boldly and truthfully proclaimed FOR ME TO LIVE IS CHRIST TO DIE IS GAIN now we certainly can agree, that was at the cutting edge of perfect or what about his final summary, of his efforts under the cutting edge of God's foreknowledge molding Paul's life to aligne with CHRIST as he sounds out in total VICTORY "I HAVE FOUGHT THE GOOD FIGHT, I HAVE FINISHED THE RACE, I HAVE KEPT THE FAITH"...CAN we call that perfect he, (we ) only did what was asked of him( us), for Jesus did say BE YE PERFECT EVEN AS YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER is PERFECT praise God for the work of a BLESSED SANCTIFIED LIFE. Started by God, molded by God finished by God PERFECT IN GOD'S EYES. Stop sinning is the easy part especially when it comes to the cutting away of and the putting to death of along with mind numbing resistance to temptation and enduring being conformed to God's Will beautifully expressed when Paul besought the LORD 3 times to have that thorn in his flesh removed. Paul's personality was firy and years of being a Pharisee of Pharisees, meant he was a cut above the rest as the word (besought) should elude too in other words he never mucked around but earnestly beseeched God in prayer. I amused myself with thoughts of grandeur towards Paul's mighty spiritual abilities thinking why is this gifted man of God not opening his mouth and commanding in Jesus name "BEGONE" But he withered on in earnest prayer two more agonizing times until he heard the answer and realized that God was allowing all this agonizing event to happen to him BUT then in a surprising turn of events Paul woke up to THE TRUTH the true meaning of his predicament and had Paul got only what he prayed for (thorn removed) his Christian walk would have been severely compromised Puffed up with PRIDE and he also would had been full of arrogance saying boastful things like, I "yes I" Paul have been up to the third Heaven and heard things no man may utter I have raised the dead healed the sick fought against beast cast out devils speak in tongues more than any of you and as for them other Apostles I am just as high as they are or maybe a meter or so higher YES our beloved Paul understood NOW what the LORD said " My grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness" therefore he could all the more boast saying, when I am weak then am I STRONG (we too can) and all without sinning against God for God's Almighty power and foreknowledge kept him from sin and kept him in the WAY. GOD, was again fulfilling his old testament word "he will kept him in perfect Peace he whose mind is stayed on him" nothing written here can be achieved without FAITH and our safest place is in Christ, for the Just shall live by FAITH therefore walk ye in the Spirit and YOU SHALL NOT FULFILL the lust of the flesh. Can we actively live in the Spirit pleasing God and sin never? Can we live in the flesh and love God liar. One day at a time sweet Jesus, When I awoke this morning I presented myself before you Lord praising and giving you thanks I asked you to keep me from falling back into sin for the whole day until I come again at the end of this day to acknowledge your faithfulness and power also the fact that I didn't die in sin during this time and kept near my God to thee throughout this blessed day for surely many have wandered through this day thinking nothing has changed all is as it was so they kept on sinning but this was the day you required their life from them Lord heal and forgive set the captured free fill your people with yourself so we may know and abide in your will all the days you have blessed us with and now Father big smile and I will see it again on the flip side of tonight love you Dad wake me up early bye for now.

      So sorry for you who are feeling so low. This is a sad place to be for sure. I think we all go through these times.
      One thing that might help a bit is, to remember we don’t live this Christian life by feelings. We live by faith in the things Jesus did for us. He’s the one who cannot mess up. He never fails.
      Please remember there is “now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Shame has no place in our lives now. Shame just keeps us from turning to others and to God. Satan’s best kept secret. Don’t let him use he’s weapon of shame against you.
      I pray for each of you that Jesus will show up in your life today in a real, concrete, and undeniable way to love and encourage you. Blessings.

      Keep that mindset and seek Him with all your heart
      I'm in the same boat, believe me.
      Run back home to Him, stay in prayer with Him, and get into His word.
      All you have to do is quit running from Him, turn around & run TO Him.
      Jesus loves you.

    I'm in Australia, love your Videos and words. I couldn't begin to express how much difficulties & hardship I have gone thru & am subjected to even now....I think this is the 3rd or 4th time of losing everything, homelessness. In 3 years (it feels like it's been 10 years)...I long to seek God better every day. Have faith that he is beside me, Jesus Christ, every second. I struggle with worry & fear still though. I also have uncertainty that my KJV Bible is not accurate translation of The Word of God...at the same time I think the word of God is written across my heart, within me. I'm in constant survival mode.

      I have been born of the Blood of Jesus for 17 years. I was lukewarm at best for most of that time and back slid into the world the past 2 or 3 years. That gave way to weed addiction and foul language etc. I was a mess and right where satan wanted me. I started drinking a little, then a little became 2 or 3 times a week. By the grace of God, I started getting really nasty headaches from my addiction to THC - both smoking and edibles and the use of alcohol only magnified the sick feeling I had in my body and moreover my spirit. I knew what I was doing was not pleasing to God and that I had to stop. I was able to throw all my weed including edibles - hundreds of dollars worth in the trash along with all the paraphernalia and bottles of booze into the trash.. God spoke to my heart and told me to “deal with your idols” and I had no choice to obey Him. As a result of my obedience to His will for my life, I was able to lead my wife to Jesus and see the miraculous change His precious Spirit made in her life! God has taken my lukewarm walk with one foot dragging in the world and transformed me into an ON FIRE man of God!!I have a new passion for His word at 61 years of age!! My prayer life has increased from 3 minute quickly prayer to over an hour of Spirit filled prayer, at a time often several times a day! I now hear His voice where before I had not.. I was recently water baptized at church and now live for Him full speed ahead. Obedience is key and now with my wife born of the Blood, we are truly equally yoked.. God has been amazing in our lives and we have seen other family members lives moved as result of our prayers!
      God did this for me.. He can and will do this for anyone who truly repents and truly desires to seek Him and put Him first! I cannot imagine a single minute not praising His holy Name. Thank you Joe for your transparency. So many times we see Christian content creators as perfect examples of a Christ mirrored existence.. Keep letting God use you, your channel is a breath of fresh air for a lot of us. Blessings from Wisconsin USA..

    Amen! And as we grow, we have to move from pablum to meat. I recall a day many years ago when i heard the Holy Spirit speak to me that the Lord was tired of me riding a fence, that he was ready to spew me out of his mouth....i quickly learned that the "meat" of the word was where i needed to start. I tremble that i was so close to God's judgment, i will never forget that day, that warning.
    His mercy and grace stands ready to wash over us like a peaceful river. Drink of this water that will never run dry. Come and see this man from Galilee, your life will never be the same again.

I will do this prayer walk, pacing.
