John 10:29 "My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand.

Matt. 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
22 "Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?'
23 "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'

Notes: How can we be lost if the Father is holding those who belong to Jesus and no one can snatch them out of His hand? What if we crawl out? What if we reject the Lordship of Jesus and the will of the Father, while giving lip service and even doing mighty works in His name?
The mystery of iniquity allows for people to be deceived into thinking they are abiding in Christ (doing His commandments) even to doing miracles.

Psalms 5:5 The boastful shall not stand in Your sight; You hate all workers of iniquity.
6 You shall destroy those who speak falsehood; The LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
7 But as for me, I will come into Your house in the multitude of Your mercy; In fear of You I will worship toward Your holy temple.
8 Lead me, O LORD, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; Make Your way straight before my face.

II Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity."

John 17:12 "While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those whom You gave Me I have kept; and none of them is lost except the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

A word the Lord gave me: There is a Great King in heaven. He has created a kingdom for His Son. All who join His Kingdom must choose to do so. Yet it is a Kingdom and cannot be entered except by surrender to the King. Therefore He has commanded all men to repent and believe in His King and call on Him for salvation!

Note: The word which is obeyed for salvation cannot come from demons! Nor angels! It MUST come from the Holy Spirit (and through man). When someone sees Him in us, then he can SEE that relationship with God is possible! (IE, He is a rewarder of them that dilligently seek Him.)

A word the Lord gave me: The law and the prophets testify (about Jesus), but The Word (Jesus) must be heard and received for in Him is the Life!

John 3:27 John answered and said, "A man can receive nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven.

I Cor 9:27 But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.

Isaiah 65:11 "But you are those who forsake the LORD, Who forget My holy mountain, Who prepare a table for Gad (means Fortune), And who furnish a drink offering for Meni (means Destiny).
12 Therefore I will number you for the sword, And you shall all bow down to the slaughter; Because, when I called, you did not answer; When I spoke, you did not hear, But did evil before My eyes, And chose that in which I do not delight."

Notes: When we forsake the Lord, we worship Chance (Fortune) and Pre-destination (Destiny). We begin to say what happens is just by chance (popular saying is S... happens) or it was pre-destined. We forget God's path up His holy mountain where He continually puts choices (choose life=good or death=evil) before us to allow us to be tested (tried) and proven. We close our ears to His voice.

A word the Lord gave me: All eternal works were purchased by the blood of Jesus and belong to Jesus. Demons are commanded to keep silent! Your faith is a gift of God. No other ground!

Eph 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.

A word the Lord gave me: Pride is a lie! We stand or walk ONLY by faith, and that is a gift from God. There is no room for boasting. We must tell the children of the power and provision if we tell them they must walk holy. If we tell them they can do anything good by any strength of their own, we are being proud and boastful!

A word the Lord gave me: The Lord is awesome, The Lord is good! He leads us in the way of righteousness for His name's sake. O Lord, I thank you and praise you! Speak to your people! No works done by the strength of man are of any eternal value. All works which build anything of lasting value, which will endure the test of fire, are a gift from God! They have been prepared from the foundation of the world and are waiting to be claimed from the hand of God by faith. NOT Presumption! You must first wait on the Lord and SEE what he does and HEAR what his will is (His voice) before you can walk in His mighty deeds! My sheep hear my voice! The Lord has not changed! He still waits for a people who will HEAR His Voice and obey Him! How else can He be a King without having to destroy His own people?!

Heb 12:25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven,

Note: To walk on water is no more difficult for us than to walk on land. It is God who does the miracle. We only need a deep faith (trust) in Him to take those steps, one by one! And how can we trust Him if we cannot HEAR Him?

Rom 10:17 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Gal 3:5 Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

Note: God will not force us to be transformed and perfected to be like Jesus, but neither can He save us if we do not accept that perfecting work. There is nothing we can do to make ourselves holy or righteous, but if we do not let him do it, we have chosen the path to destruction! This is the principle of the Kingdom of God: He commands, we choose to obey, but we cannot in our abilities or strength and to try is an insult to the blood of Jesus, but to fail is to be destroyed, so He Himself gives us the Spirit and power and faith to obey and walk as Jesus because Jesus lives His life through us. You should quake in fear and awe of the Holiness of God in you! Because He has given us an impossible way, He has also given us an unlimited power to walk it and a way (The Cross) that evil cannot even understand!
