Renewing Our Minds By The Word Of God

Send a text We open with a question: Generally speaking what is needed Before any action takes place? 1. Knowledge 2. Understanding 3. Wisdom 4. Instruction 5. Perception If we move ahead without these ideal elements in place we are headed for a sure disaster. Yes, for those who are trained up well on the Word these elements tend to be transparent and happening in the background every time a task comes up that requires action. So, it would only be a little tedious for those who haven't yet taken these steps when they make decisions, but the reward is immense. Applying them can assure you that you can avoid making unnecessary mistakes in life which can cost you plenty in resources such as time, money, materials, lost businesses, and the absence of these can even damage relationships: Rom 12:2 - 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. So now We want to dissect one of the hinge words in that scripture I define it as a swing word, in which the rest of the scripture hinges on. Let's take a look at the meaning of that word conformed using Google AI: https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

Serve And Worship God Or You Will By Default Serve And Worship Demon Empowered False gods

Send a text Something has been standing out as I read the Bible cover to cover which is the phase and/or thought of serving other gods. Now I say cover to cover but what it is, is that I am reading the Ethiopian bible as it contains the whole bible canon as well as other books of which I would call solid historical records of various events. My study is on the events that will circle around meaning the connection between the book of Revelation back to Genesis. The scripture that is leading my study and research direction for 2026 is: Luke 17:26-30 - 26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed. I will give you “rapture” types an easter egg which is that both of these events, besides speaking of things of which I will momentarily discuss, also speak of a type of rapture. This is important for us to pay attention to because God is many things, but one thing for sure is that He is consistent. Notice how Noah, his family, and Lot and some of his family were removed from the scene of Gods wrath and judgement before Gods wrath and judgement fell upon those people who were unrepentant and willingly living in sin? Rapture all day long, the difference is that they didn’t get caught up, but they did get removed before Gods wrath fell upon those people so we call this a rapture type event similar to Paul’s, John’s, and Philip’s. You can give ear to my latest rapture type message titled, “Veloci-rapture” posted February 04, 2026 for my latest list of 10-biblically proven rapture and rapture-type events. Adding these two stories now makes it 12 rapture and rapture-type events, and but no worries because there is way more than that but how much evidence do we need to prove the consistency of God anyway? Ok so what about the days of Noah and Lot? What is hidden in plain site and dodged by more pastors as the strange belief that certain messages in the bible are too controversial, so we don’t talk about them. In my vey last message titled, “Fractured from Birth End Time Clarification Beginning In Genesis and ending In Revelation”, I addressed how too many pastors and teachers pick and chose what they will speak on or teach on so as to maintain a spirit of inclusiveness. Let’s see if we can find a biblical definition of what this looks like: 2 Tim 4:1-5 - 4 I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. 5 But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

Fractured from Birth End Time Clarification Beginning In Genesis and ending In Revelation

Send a text So as I have been going through the eschatology, that is the study of the end times of which we are in right now, I came across a book titled, “Psalms 82 - The divine council of the gods, the judgment of the watchers and the inheritance of the nations” written by Brian Godawa, I saw something that triggered this message. He had something to say on it but I wanted to give it a go from my own angle. He has written some very interesting end-times books. So we have, if you have been a consistent listener, I say this so that you don’t think I used the word “we” in a position of assumption. We all have different rates of growth especially in these days of mountains of distractions, excuses, and deceptive lines of teaching, i.e. false Teachers, false prophets, false apostles, wolves in sheep's clothing, which can include The regular attendees at church known as the Saints of God, or the pastors. You might be saying well why bring up all of these falsies as it relates to the rate of growth a Christian can make. And I bring them up because what happens is that we get overly hyper sensitive or cautious to moving off of what we already know to be true or what we think to be true. And So what happens is that we slow the rate of growth at which we can grow. We are slow to adopt new teaching, new revelation, or old revelation in modern language. I think this is most expressed when I hear the statements I can hear from God and know that I do. Now in humility there's nothing wrong with this statement, but far too often what it really reveals is a difficulty one has in hearing or seeing what God is doing in these current days. In my studying in the last couple of years there seems to be a lot of contradictory information out there regarding what people think the Bible says and as a teacher this is frustrating because I see the purpose of it which is that people would make the excuse that the Bible is too difficult to understand and nobody can seem to agree on what it says. Now if you were the Antichrist isn't this the perfect strategy that you would want to play so that when you come back you can affirm that what they think is right? Of course, but we seem to be a little short sighted in the strategies of the devil in these days https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

Ham Was It More Than His Eyes That Got Him So Profoundly Cursed

Send a text Now boy oh boy have I seen some interesting reactions to this topic as it unfolded. But I simply leave it to you to decide for yourself. I am in no way attempting to get people to see the bible my way. I am not interested in that. And as discussed in my message titled, “Do You Know Your Doctrine”, posted March 04, 2026 I stated that our doctrine and the gospel are non-negotiables. But all of the other stuff we can have varying understandings without conflict. No two Christians are in the exact same place regarding God. Now we have some basic guidelines to ensure the people we listen to do not lead us astray. Follow those and you can now be free to learn and to also learn and get new revelations about the things of God. And I only say new because it is as we grow that we finally see what has always been in the bible. And any and all revelation should line up with the word of God adding nothing to or taking anything away from the existing revelations, the law or the gospel of Jesus Christ. Now don’t you feel better? No doubt I bet you are wondering what we will be learning today. Oh and before I forget, this small picture in time actually goes back to Gen chapter 6 when the sons of God had sex with women and brought with them heavenly knowledge to earth that was intended to stay in heaven. The book of Enoch shares some of that history. No it is not cannon, which is that it is not deemed scripture but it is deemed a reliable historical document. I will include a snippet so that we have the larger picture as we process what Ham may have done and why it is so significant and where the root of that sin may have come from. The article is from readingacts.com and its author is Philip Long. You can also get the story from the Ethiopian bible that considers this a part of their bible: The Book of the Watchers describes the fallen angels (1 Enoch 6-8). In the biblical story of the Nephilim, the sons of God saw the daughters of men were beautiful so they married them and had children (Gen 6:1-4). These children were called the Nephilim, the “mighty men who were of old, the men of renown.” In Genesis, the story shows how far the wickedness of humans had become: humans interacted sexually with spiritual beings. No details are given on how this might be possible, but the next verse in Genesis says “the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” This brief story is tantalizing: who are these “sons of God” and what were the Nephilim? 1 Enoch offers an expansion of this biblical story in chapters 6-11. Are the Nephilim fallen angels? In 1 Enoch, the sons of God are the “sons of heaven,” angelic beings led by Shemihazah. The name Shemihazah (שׁמיחזה, šemîḥăzāh) means “My name has seen” and is sometimes vocalized as Semyaz of Semyaza (Nickelsburg, 179). “Name” refers to God, so the name refers to constantly watching God. This is ironic since God will see this rebellion and render judgment on the Shemihazah. Some readers want to find some reference to Satan as the leader of fallen angels in the Book of Enoch. As the story progresses, however, Azazel emerges as the ringleader (but later Enoch will intercede on behalf of Azazel). This is an example of how foolish (and impossible) it is to project modern Christian angelology on 1 Enoch. Azazel is not the modern version of Satan at all! https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

Why The Nerve Of The Man On The Cross Next To Jesus

Send a text Now that’s an interesting title and long as well for such a short revelation. I will be simply contrasting a couple of bible characters and then ask some questions. Now when I ask those questions if you maintain a stiff upper lip and decide to never tune in again, then for sure this podcast is not for you. I am only interested in those who are teachable and who maintain a humble spirit. Am I greater than Jesus that I would be able to convince a stiff-necked, hard-hearted student that effective learning is proven effective by how much you are willing to change. And but if you are not willing to change then again who am I? If Jesus didn’t violate someone’s free will, even if it meant hell down the road, then how can I? I would be in great error to try. The receipt of truth is determined by a Holy Spirit working in the open minds and hearts of those who can receive His truth. A teacher’s job must remain grounded in truth and in love but separate from the emotional whims of this or that person. The truth need not be adjusted, or as is happening in these very days, being compromised so that it comes off inclusive and acceptance of everyone. This is not how it works says God in and all over His bible: 2 Tim 2:15 - Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Have you ever wondered why the office of teacher does not exist in many churches? I wonder what Paul, Jesus or the Holy Spirit would have to say about that (John 14:26). My thought is that it is a rare bird who gets taught so well and applies their greatest efforts in learning that by practicing what it being taught that they might be like their teacher: Luke 6:40 - 40 A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher. I like to think that perfectly trained could also be stated “completely and thoroughly trained.” So, why so few ever make this mark? Because the devil has found a way to puff up the people of God causing them to balk at new revelation (1 Cor 8:1). I think it also involves a spirit of fear, and reflects a gap in our faith that God can keep us from falling into error (2 Tim 1:7). https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

The Personification And Spiritual Desirability To Have And Need Wisdom In These End Times

Send a text In between the giants and end time studies we interrupt our regularly broadcasted messages for a message on wisdom which is needed in these very end time days. Person-identification; personification. I did make that up but with the intent that you understand that there are spirits that are personified, or that are likened to human traits. Oh now we have to be careful that we do not attribute them to the human race as they are first of all spirits. Ok let me show you before we get to her and her story of our need for her, that is wisdom. Gen 4:7 - 7 If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it.” So we see how sin is alive and how it has a desire, a human or person trait. No it is not human but a spirit that reflects human traits. And but it is one hundred percent evil. A good test could be to imagine this scripture applying to a tree. Can a tree desire to rule over you? Nope. Let’s look at another few examples in Romans to see sins personification: Rom 6:11-14 - 11 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. 12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. 13 And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace. For sin to have dominion over you it should but also have the power to do so. Can a tree have dominion over you? Nope. Sin; It’s alive, its alive…ha, next: Rom 7:9 - 9 I was alive once without the law, but when the commandment came, sin revived and I died. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

Do You Know Your Doctrine

Send a text What, click, click, click…I would, if I didn’t believe God was in this message, might hear the clicking off of this message, just because of that one word, “doctrine.” I sounds so formally religious and high-level professionally academic. Let’s define from dictionary.com: a particular principle, position, or policy taught or advocated, as of a religion or government.Catholic/Protestant doctrines; the Monroe Doctrine. Synonyms: belief, precept, theory, dogma, tenet something that is taught; teachings collectively.religious doctrine. a body or system of teachings relating to a particular subject.the doctrine of the Catholic or Protestant Church. I still hear yuckiness, but to give it a fair shake, I think we should move into some sample creeds, which are supposed to be a conglomeration of bible based doctrines, and see if this process makes it more sensible, as to the reason we should know the non-negotiables within our Christian belief. Why? Because it makes it less possible for someone to come along in an antichrist spirit, or a fake-believer, make-believer, non-believer, or anybody stuck in the valley of indecision to get you to compromise, and that is an end time strategy that you must know will be; no it is at play right now, and many churches have already took the bait. To make it simple, any church that performs marriage ceremonies between woman, to woman or man to man, and eventually person to animal is outside of bible supported doctrine. So, if it happened to them, it could happen to us. Therefore, we must know our non-negotiables, so we don’t negotiate or compromise. This is a bit of a shorty but a must see and understand in these end times. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/

Ho Ho Ho Mean Giants

Send a text Ok so it’s a modification of a slogan for vegetables beginning in 1928 eventually this giant became a mascot and rep for the company. And nearly all, of the kids in my generation, we knew exactly what it meant; vegetables. But this message is about the real original giants that inhabited and maybe still do inhabit this planet. One of my source documents is from a book written by Rick Renner titled, “Fallen Angels, Giants, Monsters And The World Before The Flood - How The Events of Noah's Ark & The Flood Are Relevant To The End Of The Age. I recommend Ricks books on the end times as they are nothing short of eye opening and sensationally written and supported by scripture. So we can rarely take the credit for creating anything new right? Solomon stated there is nothing new under the sun: Eccl 1:9 - That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun. Notice that it states, “…That which has been is what will be…)? And well if we look hard at the Genesis account we also find something that is also telling: Gen 6:4 - 4 There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, And why not follow this as if it, the giant thing were to ever happen again, again, that is if they are not already here. God forbid we find a giant in the melting Arctic circle ice whereby we experimenting war types can extract some of its DNA and move to cloning such beasts. And no it doesn’t matter that we know that they were bent on the complete and thorough destruction of mankind, those who are of possessed and ambitious minds satan can and will use. More on this later. Matt 24:37-39 - 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. https://appliedstrengthsministry.org/
