EMPOWERING PARENTS

PARENTING (google)

     I know that it must be frustrating for those of you who read my blog to suddenly find it gone. I am a little lamb, with its tongue hanging out, panting after Jesus. Whatever He says, I do. He won my heart fair and square. That being said, my previous blog was deleted twice at His command, and it served its purpose. This blog is going to be devoted to empowering parents.
     Back in the '90's, when children had no voice, parents could do "the right thing" and it be considered correct response; however, I have discovered an anomaly, children with voices have placed many parents in the position of being "guilty" until proven innocent. I used to tell Lucas, "Honey, I'm so glad you are adventurous, but, there are decisions that you can only make once and you don't know what they are until you find yourself before Jesus telling Him the story of you cutting Daddy's phone chord with metal scissors." I hate that about those kind of decisions.
      Pretty much all adults, who engage in sexual intercourse, no matter what preventative measures are taken, can end in a pregnancy. I know you're thinking, "Well, unless the couple has been sterilized...." for a few, even that doesn't work. So, bottom line, you have sex, you could get pregnancy, std, and a whole slew of other difficulties that may follow. It always amazes me when the pregnancy comes as a surprise to the sexually active. It's as though the desire to not have a baby supersedes the possibility of the outcome.

      While working with Jesus through the Holy Spirit, I discovered a truth: no lies can exist in the spirit world. How that plays out is surprising and unique. Being natural, when the spirit is taken into the spirit world, whatever is in the heart, is revealed. That should sober up a bunch of us. I can almost hear, "Please, Jesus, never take me in the spirit world. You know I'm not ready to say good bye to that secret. I like it. I want to entertain it a little longer...k?" Demons are in the spirit world, but you know them right away, because they are liars....unless, you have come into agreement with their lies. Guaranteed, that's why you are there...to see the lie exposed and you delivered.  I can't count the times I have been surprised. Just the other day, Jesus took me to the place where I saw myself, hungry for fellowship. When I got up, I had a spring in my step, a glimmer of hope in my eye, and walked into the fellowship He provided for me.
       Hopefully, with the Holy Spirit guiding me, each blog entry will be about learning to separate natural law from spiritual law. When it comes to parenting, there are behaviors, not curses, that are transferred generation to generation. The first step in any journey, is determining what it is you are dealing with...behavior, belief, personality, or spiritual. Spiritual should never be the first option. There's a reason for that, and I will go in depth with it in my next entry because it is vital that you get the structure correct. You can't build a skeleton with the feet on top. Feet are for walking. So, we deal with the head first.

Cool Quote (google)

        Do you know why God gave Moses the 10 commandments? To show mankind that no matter how hard natural man tries, his works can not get Him/Her to God. That's why Jesus had such a problem with the religious powers of the day, they were like, "Lookey here, Jesus, we are doing it perfectly, and we don't need some mamby pamby miracle man messing it all up for us." No one has the right to contact the spirit world through any other means than Jesus. He alone, is the gate, and He alone determines who, when, where, how, etc goes through. If that makes you angry, then be the Creator of the Universe and then you can determine what is "right."
        That being said, God is a parent. He is Father. The Holy Spirit is Mother. Jesus is Son. I won't argue over this. The Holy Spirit is not a woman. God is man...all man, but the Spirit who is comforter, nurturer, lover, carrier of the seed, is feminine in nature. The Holy Spirit teaches us how to identify other believers, through fruit. If the fruit tree is bearing crap fruit or no fruit, don't judge the fruit, expose the root.  I was going to write a book called, "Dining with Demons Unaware," but this seems the better option.
          Some of you may be wondering what God has to do with parenting...only everything! His heart is to see the hearts of the fathers turned back to their sons and for women to return to their natural affection. You must know, up front, the enemy is one of the most intelligent beings that ever lives...but he is not wise. Wisdom is the power of love. Pride is the power of intelligence. He knows how to destroy our nation from within...by making parents believe they are powerless. You are not! I will commit to sharing all God will allow me to share with you so that the Holy Spirit can put the Sword of Truth in your hand and defeat the enemy in every area of your life. I am very excited about this endeavor. I am passionate for growth. I long to see warriors, fighting for love, not self-preservation and entitlements. God bless all of you.
