We can't judge because everyone is a potential christian. I am convicted but confused, so I ask the Lord. What about the people with the signs "will work for food" but use it for drugs instead. I can't help everyone. Rom 8:14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. AND John 5:19 Jesus gave them this answer: “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does. PRECONCIEVED IDEAS (JUDGING) create barriers to our following and discerning God's will in situation. If you think you already know what God wants before He shows you, you will not be able to follow His leading. YOU ARE NOT TRAINABLE OR TEACHABLE IF YOU THINK YOU ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER. BE OPEN FOR MY LEADING AND GUIDANCE, YOU DO NOT AND CANNOT KNOW THE "BIG PICTURE".I AM GOD, YOU ARE NOT. I HAVE PLANS THAT ONLY REQUIRE YOUR OBEDIENCE, NOT YOUR UNDERSTANDING. FOLLOW ME. Gotta do some weed pulling, pray for me. Jimf

Hello Jimf

God bless you this day.

Amen!

I remember several years back, while reading one of the Studies here on this site, that I came across a Bible scripture and 2-3 words into reading that blessed scripture, I said to myself "oh, I know this scripture" and I then stopped reading it and moved on to the next portion of the study. Within my soul, The Holy Spirit impressed upon my mind... "uh hmm...if you think you know all that My Word says and refuse to read it again, I cannot reveal more to you."

Whoa! what a glorious Ding Ding Ding moment that was for me. He is Alive, His Word is Alive. Just as He continues to unveil Himself to us, so does He too, give us more and more understanding of His Word, if we abide in Him and continue reading His Word, afresh. Meditate on His Word!!! Take it in! He is our daily Bread!

Prayers continue to rise to our Lord in the name of Jesus on your behalf. May God's blessed will be done.

God bless and keep you, Jimf.
In Christ Jesus' love,
Sister Mack

I'll be praying for you too. It sounds like you are yearning for the gift of discernment. Maybe God is working through this desire, but guiding you through obedience.
