The LORD Jesus .. who is he to you

do you love him ?
do you love him above all others and all else ?

what have you given up for him in light of the truth that he gave up ALL for us

how ?
why ?
is his heart and your heart aligned in goals and will and purpose ?
what is he like ?
how does he speak to you?
does he speak to you ?

do you listen to know he is speaking to you ?
tell us about this wondrous saviour of ours from your own life

(yes you can answer any part of the post haha doesn't have to be all of it ..)

Q: The LORD Jesus .. who is he to you A: He is Lord and saviour of the faithful and friend to them and brother too.

Q: do you love him ? A: Yes, I believe that I do and pray that I am not deceiving myself and always say "Lord have mercy on me, a sinner".

Q: do you love him above all others and all else ? A: I hope so, I hope even more than myself but this has not been put to the test so again I say, "Lord have mercy"

Q: what have you given up for him in light of the truth that he gave up ALL for us A: Very little have I given up yet I have lost friendships out of loyalty to the Lord.

Q: how ? why ? A: I ought not go into details that may embarrass others.

... maybe I'll come back to this some time in the future

the lord JESUS is first and foremost ..my lORD and my saviour
he is my healer and my deliverer my strength my shield and my song

i learn to love him more and more with every day of this life he has redeemed unto himself
i wish i could say i love him above all else but by his grace i am learning to do so as i learn to die daily to myself that his perfect will may be fulfilled through me to the god of all others and to his glory alone eternally .

i love him because he first loved me and his love was relentless in tenderness and mercy
when i was deceived and taken of an evil spirit as a youth he sent his servant .and commanding that evil spirit told it to come out and it came out with a loud protest .
when i was 21 i obeyed his word and was buried into his death by baptism of water .
when i was 24 he inundated me with his presence in the baptism of the holy ghost what felt like oil ignited with fire and vibrating with uter power poured down over my head and shoulders and my entire body quaked and i bowed to the ground under the glory of his presence .. i rose up and began to utter loudly in other tongues

the lord then gave me a vision of him as i lay upon my bed one night and i say him in his awesome power .. he stood upon the earth and the mighty waves of the oceans were but the wake made by his feet for he stood up the earth as if it was but a foot stool .
That same night he delivered me from a recurring nightmare and terror which i had suffered from for 15 years and i never ever had that nightmare again ..

in his mercy he led me out of the sins iy life which i had been bound in and seemingly unable to walk free of he caused me to come out of them and walk free and do them no more ..
i have nothing but gratitude for the power of his Holy Spirit at work in my life and as i learn more and more to listen to and obey him he leads me closer and closer to his heart and heaven .

we must always fight the good fight of faith to maintain what he has accomplished in us .. her gives us a clean vessel and fills it with his holiness but it is ours to look after ours to keep filled and clean and untainted from the world .

i was a 30 cigarette a day person and he delivers me in a week
i smoked dope and he set me free then later he brought me to godly repentance acknowledging it as sin and casting of foolish self justifications
at one time in my confusions of life i got addicted to meth and the lord also saved me from that and i simply "stopped" there is NOTHING our GOD cannot do .

these days he leads me onwards and upwards ever calling me on and on .. he separates me further from the world shepherding me out of the mire of this world and into his glorious light ..
at evert stage i must listen and every stage i must obey and i learn to do so for his great love for me and for the joy he sets before me .

i was an avid pc gamer (ridiculous amount of hours per day) but the lord led me out and now i don't even have games installed and have no interest in the demonic presence .
he has recently cause me to cease from all TV programs as he has made known to me the base wickedness of them they are inspired from hell itself in every form prompting every manner of base wickedness and he says to me .. "come out and have no part ."

the doctrine of once saved always saved is itself from the pit of hell .. for at every stage the lord makes me to know ..if you don't repent of sin and stop doing ti .. light can have no fellowship with darkness .. you can be saved if you repent but if you do not .. you wont be saved because darkness cannot come into the presence of light ..the light consumes it . so repent of ALL darkness in your heart as the lord makes it known to you repent of it .. tur away and shun it and run after the lord JEsus

Jesus is the means of salvation. The guide through the darkness. The merciful healer. The Shepard of the soul who leads to the selfless rightiousnss of GOD. He is the grace in which my inequities can be forgiven me, and the perseverance that lends his strength for God's will.

I love the LORD above all else.

I have given up my past life of hateful anger and self pity.
I have given up my business. My love. My false securities. My children. My comfort. Have yet to give up all selfish wants of the flesh however as I still smoke and take in caffeine. He gave me the strength to end a wholly destructive addiction to crack cocaine roughly five years ago. He lifted my pain and hate and anger literally saving my significant other at the time from imminent death by my hand. This technically saved many lives including mine and one of my sons and Mich pain through family members. I am but a hypocrite as I have given up my very blood but not my selfish fleshly wants. Through grace, patience, perseverance, and above all Faith; the LORD will lift me up over this last wholly damning stumbling block and make it a foot stool.

My spirit is very near Christ but not wholly aligned as f yet. I plead with the LORD to instill me with patience and Faith and strength wholly for his work and his goal.

He speaks to me in a multitude of ways at times. Conscience, scripture, overwhelming sensations of spirit and body, tears of joy and amazing revaluation that pertains to me personally at times and to other things. He guides me and imbues me with knowledge for my direction under his cause. When there is a really strong connection I may gain confirmation from seemingly natural events in nature and three times that I recall I have tasted salt in my mouth that was in know way there before. On occasion I have have heightened senses for a short period as well. All praise is to the LORD.




Faith in selfless Unity for Good.

The Lord and Savior, He is my Redeemer, without Him I would have no peace or joy or eternity, but above all no forgiveness.
