“Then an evil spirit from Adonai came upon Sha’ul.” 1 Samuel 19:9
This message of Adonai sending evil spirits to Saul is repeated over and over, but why? Because Saul disobeyed God and allowed the king to live and kept some of the animals when Adonai told Saul to kill them all. At that time the Holy Spirit left Saul and evil spirits came instead to haunt him.
The Lord reminded me also of what Yeshua said in that when an evil spirit leaves a man and goes to find another place and cannot find it, he comes back to the same man and brings 7 more demons with him so the state of the man is worse than before.
Now the next part the Lord keeps showing me is the whole thing of “in seeing they do not see, and in hearing they do not hear, lest they turn from their sin and be healed.”
The thing is simply we do not see the things of God and understand them, they are foreign to us and make no sense to us. Over the years I have heard an old saying, “ ways of God are mysterious.” And they are when you do not have his Spirit, but even with his Holy Spirit, there are still many things which make no sense to me. Like this morning when mediating the thought came to my mind, Why did Adonai even put the tree of knowledge in the garden of Eden to tempt Adam and Eve? And why does he send evil spirits to Saul? Why not just remove him and move on? And why not just eliminate satan and the evil spirits all together now instead of letting them do things to us?
There are things I have yet to learn and understand, and maybe that is for the next life. But what I do know is “Adonai created the good and evil for his good purpose.” His main idea is that we need to be tested and prove we are worthy of salvation and eternity with him. I can imagine what the saved by grace people are saying about now. Because it is a lie to say you are saved by grace without practicing the good works the Lord made us to do beforehand. You are judged by your works, and your works bring about the grace of God “IF” you hear and obey him. Not the other way around.
The next thing God showed me was “seek and thou shall find, knock and the food will be open to you…” This is the main thing, to seek. Most do not seek the truth and will of God. Not to seek to justify your doctrine, which is what most people do. So when a preacher or normal guy like me tells you truth we hear from Adonai y Yeshua. The automatic response is to argue back with your own doctrine, and some of you are very well versed in the bible (although with twisted doctrine from it, and following a twisted version of it). And they quote this and that verse ignoring others to support their lies as being truth. But the thing of it is those same verses support the truth, they just read it in a different light, and again ignoring the Lord and how he would teach them on the subject. Which as said many times is the judgment, that the light (wisdom and truth) came into the world and man stayed in their darkness. It also is summed up with what Yeshua said in Matthew 25 “do not call anyone your Rabbi (teacher) for you have one the Messiah.”
This message jumps around a bit, pulling a few different points together nicely, or at least the way the Lord showed ,e. As always it can be a bit tricky to explain things exactly the way the Lord shows you them when you listen to him. Which brings up the main point made over and over. Make the Lord your teacher, your God, your King and Lord. Get your teaching and truth from him, not me nor anyone else. My part is to tell what was shown to me in the dark, but to make disciples to the Lord Yeshua, not to me nor anyone else.
When you look around you see everyone making disciples to their religious views and or their man teacher. This is very wrong, you are the thieves who come in through the windows or other ways than through the front gate like the good Shepard Yeshua. Don’t take the glory, but instead give it all to the Lord.
So to try and sum it up, we end up with evil spirits because we do not hear and obey the Lord. The Lord only sends his Holy Spirit to those who listen and obey him. Never an evil one. And there is this thing about the state of a man being worse than before, I have seen it personally more than once. We are not to do the work given to us, only to undo it and go backwards. Once you have tasted the good of the Lord, you must move forward in him.
And because of this we do not see and do not hear or we would turn from the ways we live onto a righteous way of life and be healed.
This one was shown to me this weekend because of a visit from my sister. We had a little bit of a deep, maybe a bit heated discussion about my dad and him not being on a blood thinner med. Her way of thinking is he will die without it as his stints in his neck will collapse. I made the point back to her that when in her care in Iowa he was on many meds, and had many mini strokes, and even on high blood pressure meds he still had high blood pressure and diabetes. So the question is how were those meds working out for dads good? Even when he had his first major stroke he was on these meds, and supposedly it was just an issue of adjusting them to make them effective without side effects. Which you have to ask yourself, when you read a med’s side effects, it makes you seem a bit crazy to take them in the first place, in my opinion.
The more information the Lord shows me about health and how it really works. The more I know the medical system that is currently in place is the biggest scam ever. ANd I know it by the fruit as much as anything anyone has shown me or what God has told me. As mentioned above, my dad came here with all kinds of problems and ongoing problems. We simply changed his diet, restricted the bad carbs, sugars and bad oils. And all his health issues went away, so did his meds.
The same is true with my daughters we adopted, they had a lot of meds for their lungs, and had been in and out of the hospital with problems, a few times almost dying. When we got them, we took them off the meds cold turkey, and never once a day in the hospital, not one. And soon after no issues at all with their lungs. The coughing stopped as did any other signs of having bad lungs.
My wife had health issues, the doctors told her she would be in a wheelchair by now and on many meds for life. She does not take anything, and not only walks perfectly, but she is excellent, I would put her up against any super model or movie star for beauty and the way she keeps her body, she is that sexy and beuatiful. But then it all goes together, you eat right and stay away from doctors, then the results are in your skin and body as much as your inner health.
I also had my day with health issues, never went to a doctor to find out what it was, I just stopped eating and drinking sugar items like cold and chocolate milk, candy bars… Stopped eating hamburgers, hotdogs and pizza from fast food places. Started drinking water and eating tuna sandwiches made by me. In about one month my weight dropped by 30 lbs and my health issues stopped.
Out of 6 people we all are in good shape and healthy, except an occasional flu like now. But 100% success simply because of eating correctly instead of the prepackaged trash these same owners put out from food companies as the owners who make the meds to supposedly offset it. When the true cure is in what God created. Why are we so blind to see this? We have been healed because I see and hear, as does my wife. Yet people see our results and know why we have the results we do and why my dad has the results he has, and yet people argue with you because their doctors say something else??? How do we not see this?
It is a life of faith, walking according to what God whispers into your inner ear, and then to obey it. There are very few who find this faith in Yeshua. He will lead you into all righteousness if you let him. But no one lets him. They prefer their men teachers instead of Yeshua,. They prefer their doctors instead of Yeshua. These men never tell you to change anything, they just give you a band aid to fix things short term, like telling you you are saved by grace or because of confession and do not have to do anything else, it gives you a sense of peace, thinking you are going to heaven. But your life does not change, and you will find out the hard way when you meet your judge, Yeshua you were wrong.
Along these lines something happened yesterday which was cool. I went back to the church my wife goes to. The preaching changed because one of the daughters changed and truly received the Spirit. Her and her husband went through a lot of tough stuff, similar to me. And it drew them closer to God. For years my wife asked me to go to church with her, to which I said if you find a church which speaks truth, because I will not allow this trash garbage teaching to enter into my mind. So according to Cinthya it changed, and I also was watching the things this couple was going through and prayed for them to find God through it. So I felt comfortable that things did change. Another sign was the people in the church, a good half or more of them left. They did not want to hear the truth.
So I went and the preaching was very different and in line with the truth. MY daughters were both excited I went and both gave me a big long hug. Our son made my wife move over and he sat between us and put his arm around us both, he rested on me a lot. And of course my wife was happy about it. So it was good.
After it was over the preacher came up and gave me a big hug and said thank you, thank you thank you. She really meant it. So I said porque? (Why)? And she said because I know you follow truth and walk the line, or something similar as it was in Spanish. It seems it was a relief to her to have someone come back with them, instead of leaving because of her teachings.
Before I went I prayed to God if I should or not? He made it clear to go. Because even if my wife said it is good teaching now, and the Lord said do not go. I would not have gone. The thing of it is, the gathering is not for me, I do not need it. The whole purpose of the gathering is to tell the things God is showing you in the dark, and tell the people so they get an idea of how God works. I know how he works. So the purpose of going is to be there for fellowship with other true believers, although you can see at different points in their walk. And to build up the body of Yeshua the messiah.
The other thing was the Lord told me to tell Claudia something, so I did in my best Spanish. And she understood and accepted it. And that was to spend more time speaking of how God works than what the bible says. She made her point about obedience and used many bible verses, it was truth. But I asked her, why the change in you? And I already knew the answer but wanted it to come from her. She said because of what we suffered in a more lengthy way. So then I made the point to her, it is the same with everyone. If you simply talk and show bible verses, it is not personal, they will not understand. But if you put the things written in the bible into life’s challenges, using your own examples or letting others tell their experiences. Then the people will start to understand, and start to look for God more in their life as it unholds. The people need to know that life’s challenges, trials and tribulations. The suffering they will experience because of God is the narrow path they need to follow.
You cannot learn God without going through these things of suffering, it is not possible. You cannot learn the things of God by reading your bible and studying really hard, you learn the things of God through life’s hard knocks.
Right now I am reading about King David and him hiding in the caves from Saul, and the things he went through. We know the stories of Moses, of Joseph, of Job of… Every man who was used by God went through things, including Yeshua, who was made perfect by the things he suffered. He was not made perfect by the things he studied in scripture.
So back to the seeing and hearing yet not being able to see and hear. As it also was one of the verses that Claudia pointed to. It still amazes me how people can see the results of doing things God’s way, like our health and that of my dad. And still argue to do it the way of the medical system which is designed to make you sick and even kill you. For example the covid vaccine killed many people I know. The system knew it would and pushed it anyways. How do we not see this and want to keep doing the same things expecting better results?
It is one thing if you are in the system and no one ever told you the truth so you looked and seeked the truth. And you just go along with it because you believe the experts know more than you. But another one when the truth is staring you in the eyes and you still want more of the thing which made you sick either physically, mentally or spiritually. The truth is in Yeshua and him alone. Even with going to this gathering of the church, it is not my truth. It cannot prepare me for the challenges I will face today or this week.
For example, satan has been trying to get me by putting many thoughts in my mind. Reminding me of who I was as a temptation to take me back there. To which the truth comes in my mind and says resist the devil and he will flee. So I resist him, and he stops but then comes back again. So I resist him again, and again…
Now scripture is important to know, The Lord Yeshua uses it all the time with me like this. But it is not from reading my bible that I know this truth, it is from the Lord telling me so I out into practice what was shown to me when it counts. The bible will not open itself up when the trials come and the preaching from Sunday will not help me either. But the truth of Yeshua and his power to help me overcome will.
This is the point, stop relying on men for your truth when the only truth comes from Yeshua. Rely on him to guide your path, he is the only one who can take you on the narrow path. He is the only one who can save you. The purpose of the gathering is not to feed you, it is to edify each other in the truth in Yeshua. Helping each man keep the faith and on that narrow path.
So what spirit do you follow? The spirit of men, the spirit of evil, or the Spirit of God?
