Dan's Nuggets
There is just one person here on earth that I know is capable of being completely satisfied with me: The Holy Spirit!
The Holy Spirit knows me inside and out. He understands me PERFECTLY and has chosen to indwell me despite my humanity. He knows that I am not yet perfected and that I am still "under construction." But none of that bothers Him. None of this intimidates Him or makes Him think less of me. He is my Earthly Advocate like Jesus is my Heavenly Advocate. He knows I love the Lord Jesus and that is good enough for Him... to make His home in me. He sees clearly exactly where we are headed together, and easily sees me as a finished product in Christ ahead of time. He is satisfied with me. And if you have accepted Christ, He is satisfied with you too! He is your Best Friend through thick and thin. The Comforter has come! And He's not a Commuter... He's in you to stay! The Holy Spirit KNOWS YOU, and LOVES YOU, and is FOR YOU... FOREVER!
SO WHAT if some earthly person who does not know your heart of hearts is critical of you? It's just their opinion! Don't allow their opinion of you to change your opinion of yourself! Protect your self-image by meditating on Bible truths of WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST.
My all time favorite song of Veronica Petrucci, the most anointed diva in the Kingdom of God today, is a song she wrote called: "I Know Who I Am!" My second favorite song of hers is "Made It Out Alive", my third favorite, "Women Of Faith", my fourth, "Window", my fifth "Expecting Great Things", my sixth favorite of Veronica's is "Worldwide Praise", my seventh, "No Fear", my eighth of hers is "Celebrate Life".

If I have read my Bible correctly, My God is "The God of Another Chance"... and Another... and...
Psalm 130:3-4 NLT - LORD, if you kept a record of our sins, who, O Lord, could ever survive? But you offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear you.
On Moles...
The enemy is adept at planting a mole into your life. As Mike Murdock says, "When Satan wants to destroy you he places a deceiver into your life." Mike also says, "Satan's favorite entry point is someone close to you."
Mole: noun
1. any of various small insectivorous mammals, especially of the family Talpidae, living chiefly underground, and having velvety fur, very small eyes, and strong forefeet.
2. a spy who becomes part of and works from within the ranks of an enemy governmental staff or intelligence agency. Compare double agent.
3. Machinery . a large, powerful machine for boring through earth or rock, used in the construction of tunnels.
The Sanhedrin had no way of getting to Jesus to crucify him until they found a MOLE to get to Jesus from within... Judas.
In one sense, Jesus was NOT crucified by either the Jews or the Gentiles, but by a single MOLE! (Yes, the Bible declares plainly and repletely that both the Jews and the Gentiles crucified Jesus! But the MOLE was the M.O., or the M.odus of O.peration by which it happened.)
Satan is clever to destroy nations, families, cultures, and organizations from WITHIN.
Satan will try to destroy your dream from WITHIN. He will try to PLANT the wrong person into your life who can unravel the whole thing.
It was Joseph's own brothers that tried to destroy him from within the family.
Then later it was an insider, the wife of the family Joseph was serving (Potiphar's), that tried to destroy him.
In 2008 Satan planted a "mole" into the White House, a man who was adopted the dream of his socialist father and was mentored by socialist friends and professors, and by a racist pastor. (See article below by African-American leader Star Parker, Obama Is A False Prophet!) That one mole has done more damage to our nation FROM THE INSIDE in the span of 4 years than any other enemy of our state has been able to do from the OUTSIDE over decades of plotting against us. Our poor president thinks God is a bigot for stating in His Word that marriage is only between a man and woman. What demagogue has ever had the arrogance and audacity to fly in the face of God like this? Our mafia-style president has ordered the execution of millions more innocent unborn babies by signing executive orders to fund and authorize the same both here in the USA and abroad. This man occupying the White House has courted Muslim extremists and tried to appease them. (But they don't fall for his smooth rhetoric like the majority of naive Americans.) Obama has turned out to be Gaybama + Abortama + Islama which has resulted in Judgama and Debtama and NoJob-ama. Not that any of these things were his fault alone... but by his agenda, policies, and executive orders, he has proliferated and spearheaded all of the above national crises exponentially... at an alarming rate... inviting Divine judgment upon our nation as never before! God Almighty help us and save us from such utter foolishness and evil!
Implosion from WITHIN is a better strategy than Explosion from WITHOUT.
A tornado's most deadly force is not its winds from without, but its pressure from within. The inside pressure of the tornado does even more damage than outside winds. The IMPLOSION factor is greater than the EXPLOSION factor.
Satan knows that BETRAYAL causes the most pain. It is the most likely weapon that might cause you to unwittingly accept the SEED OF UNFORGIVENESS... which if not quickly uprooted, turns into a ROOT OF BITTERNESS... which quickly morphs into a TREE OF HATRED... which ends in the FRUIT OF MURDER.... usually the self-anihilation of your own character, integrity, and your dream, and the poisoning of everyone else around you.
Offense > Unforgiveness > Bitterness > Hatred > Murder!
Mole > Bad Seed > Bitter Root > Hateful Tree > Murderous Fruit!
Paul The Apostle had to deal with MOLES:
Paul said in Galatians 2:4 KJV - And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage.
Jude warned of the INSIDER THREAT:
Jude 1:4 KJV - For there are certain men crept in unawares , who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Solomon said that all it takes to ruin everything is ONE WRONG INSIDER:
Proverbs 22:10 KJV - Cast out the scorner, and contention shall go out ; yea, strife and reproach shall cease.
Proverbs 22:10 NIV - Drive out the mocker, and out goes strife; quarrels and insults are ended.
Proverbs 22:10 MSG - Kick out the troublemakers and things will quiet down; you need a break from bickering and griping!
Proverbs 22:10 ESV - Drive out a scoffer, and strife will go out, and quarreling and abuse will cease. |
