The steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord. Psalms 37:23

• When I need food, my feet are ordered to the grocery store.

• When I need gas in my car, my feet are ordered to the gas station.

• Whatever we have to do, buy, get or otherwise accomplish if we pay attention

to the signs and wonders of the Holy Spirit. His fingerprint is on all of His

creation. He will lead us by the natural and the spiritual if we only pay

attention.

Proverbs 16:9

A man’s heart plans his way,

But the Lord directs his paths

When we consider our walk here on earth we need to commit or shall I say trust

in the Lord in all ways and concerning all things.

Psalms 37:3,4,5,&7

• TRUST in the Lord, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on HIS

faithfulness.

• DELIGHT yourself also in the Lord, and HE SHALL give you the desires of your

heart.

• COMMIT your way (singular) to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He SHALL bring

it to pass.

• REST in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him. DO NOT FRET- it only brings

harm.

Proverbs 3:6

In ALL your ways (plural) acknowledge Him, and He SHALL direct your paths.

You see we have so much of the Babylonian system in our thoughts and heart it

has become a way of life. But Jesus specifically said He was the way.

You see God never intended for us to remain in bondage. It was always His desire

for us to walk in freedom. To command those things that be not as though they are.

If we can rid our thoughts and our meditation of the world’s way of doing and

seeing things and pay attention to the Holy Spirit and the way He does things,

our steps then can be truly ordered by the Lord.

Proverbs 1:23

Hear my words cry out wisdom.

Turn at my rebuke; surely I  will pour out My Spirit on you, I will make My

words known to you.

We now live in a Kingdom that has a King. A little side note, we are not that

king. And Paul said to present ourselves a living sacrifice which is our

reasonable service. Please take note that we are living not dead. God the Father

said that He came that we may have life.

If you don’t do any other thing while you are here on Earth please heed and obey

quickly the voice of our Comforter and LIVE.

He will direct your steps to the next person, or assignment. Remember we are in

His service to DO ANYTHING He asks. It is an honor to be able to hear and obey

the voice of the Comforter to help others into His Presence.

IN HIM we move and live and have our being. Our very life hidden in Him is our

source of peace, power, love and supply.

Be not deceived,

• led astray

• blinded by lies

• not what it seems to be

• fraud

God is not mocked

• not to be made fun of

• not to be made fun of by imitating or mimicking

• to lead on then disappoint

• not genuine

• false

• pretend

For WHATEVEVER a man sows

• love

• hate

• kindness

• anger

• giving

• taking

• forgiveness

• unforgiveness

• restraint

• gossip

• honor

• dishonor

• words of life

• words of death

• money

That will he reap also

It is a law that has no choice but to respond.

Like the law of gravity. It has to work.

The Bible says that everything bears fruit after its own kind Genesis 1:12

This is a real law weather spiritual or natural, it is a law.

And our enemy knows it.

He’ll try and get you to create your world and future by your words, by the

The Bible says that life and death are in the power of the tongue.

So the way the evil one gets you also to rebel against God is to get you to say

things that are contrary to what God says about an area or one of His promises.

You see if we pray and we don’t see a manifestation right away of our prayer.

Then the evil one tries to come in and seduce us by saying things like, you see

you prayed and nothing happened. Your kid still drinks or your kid still has a

fever. You sowed money and still you don’t get your bills paid.

The evil ones goal is to get you to think God is holding out on you. That He

doesn’t hear you (are you ready) because you have tons of sin in your life.

And we do, so do we all. But its not about what we have or have not done. Its

ONLY about what Jesus has done.

You see if the evil one can get you to doubt God and SAY, then your future is

bound by your words. The Bible says you have whatsoever you say. Mark 11:23

Here is a little side track.

If the evil one can get us to think about our sins, and that is the reason our

prayers are not answered. That will lead us down the road of guilt which leads

us down another road named condemnation which then leads us down the same old

road of sin again. He keeps us on the treadmill of despair that keeps us out of

all the Father has for us.

You see we being evil LOVE to give good gifts to our kids and grandkids.

How mush more do you think our Heavenly Father wants to give us all things.

Yet He created us to have dominion on this planet concerning the works of His

hands. So there are times that we are snared by the words of our mouth and we

literally tie the hands of God to help us.

The greatest miracle…

The miracles of God are great and should be and must be remembered. And we

should give absolute praise and honor and glory to God for the miraculous. But I

think that the greater miracle is that the Creator of Heaven and Earth would

even intervene on our behalf. The prophet Isaiah said who am I that Thou

considers me.

The signs and wonders are not the destination, they only point to the

destination. Who when they are driving down the highway when they see the sign

for say the park, pull over and say here we are. No the sign merely points you

in the right direction. It says yes you are going the right way, keep on this

heading until we say turn.

The same in Gods realm. Being in Him is our destination. Walking in His

provision is our inheritance. Paul said desire the best gifts. 1Corintians

12:31. What are the best gifts. To someone who is sick the best gift would be

gift of healing, to someone who is down, the best gift would be the gift of

prophecy. To another it might be need of money, needing the gift of miracles.

Whatever a persons need is, God the Father, God the Son, and

God the Holy Spirit has what we need without question and without reproach.

Our Father’s only desire for us is to prosper and be in health AS our soul

prospers. Just as you being an earthly father desires good things for our

children. So much more our Heavenly Father desires to give us good things. It is the Father’s good pleasure to give you His Kingdom.

When? In the next world? Yes! That’s a given, but now in this life also.

1John 4:17 says, as He (Jesus)is, 

seated, signifying rest, healthy, wealthy, all power, and all love. So are we

in this world. Not the next. NOW

He only desires that we believe that HE IS and a rewarded of those who

diligently seek Him. Its not the sign, or the miracle, or the formula to get to

the Lord, it is THE LORD. And HIS PERSON that we KNOW that HE IS.

We don’t need to believe on any other thing, on our ability, our strength, our

ways, or even our faith. Just KNOW THE PERSON JESUS.

For In Him we live, and move and breathe and have our being.

Faith must be released through our words, out of our mouths

Faith must be released by our words,

through our mouths.

Because of the creative power of our words

we frame our world.

Our words are our seeds that we plant

to create our world.

The word of God in our mouth, is just as powerful

as the word that comes out of God’s mouth.

How many times do we read in the Bible…

God says “have I not said?”

And until we really deep down believe that,

the evil one will continually have us

saying the wrong thing.

You see the evil one knows that by our words

our world is established, 

because the end of Mark 11:23, God said “You will

have whatsoever you say”

Proverbs 12:14, 13:2 says by the words of your

mouth (seeds sown) you shall eat the fruit thereof.

•Because our words spoken (seeds planted) will affect

• How we think, Proverbs 23:7 says as a man thinks

in his heart so is he. (not in his head)

will affect

• Our emotions, 1Corintians 13:4-8 which will affect

• Our decisions, Joshua 1:8 which will affect

• Our actions, Acts10:38, Galatians 6:7-10 which will affect

• Our habits, Philippians 4:8 which will affect

• Our character, which will ultimately affect

• Our final destination and plans God has for our lives.

Concerning the Tower of Babel

Genesis 11:6 states

And the Lord said

• Indeed the people are ONE.

• They speak the same language

• Now NOTHING that they purpose to do will be

 WITHHELD from them.

 

And Jesus said

• That if two of you agree on earth

• Concerning ANYTHING

• That they ask my Father

• It will be done for them.

Where we get into trouble is when time passes

the evil one says in our minds,

you see you asked and nothing happened.

Do you think he cares about what it is that you asked for?

No, he wants to steal the word of FAITH from your vocabulary and 

confession, so you will speak something else contrary to your prayer.  

So even when sometime goes by and it appears that nothing is happening 

don’t speak anything other than what either God said about it or what 

you said about it.

Because by the confession of your mouth YOUR world is framed.
