Look Who was Busted for Starting Deadly CA Fire that Killed 41+

(source:  www.novanations.com)

Excerpts:  

"The California wildfires have been raging for quite some time which has caused unprecedented damage in the region.  Now, it is important to note that fires in the California area are not unheard of, but they typically occur in December and January, and not October.  These fires have forced thousands of residents to leave their homes in terror not knowing what they will return to when they are able."

"In a week, these raging fires have scorched more than 200,000 acres, destroyed or damaged the last week more than 5,500 homes, and displaced 100,000 people."

"As officials were studying the fires, they noticed a pattern of where the majority of them occurred.  It seems that areas hardest hit by these fires were in areas within the legal marijuana business, and they are now suspecting foul play.  As it turns out the areas that are being hit the hardest happens to be pot farms."

"The New York Times reported that tens of thousands of marijuana growers live in this area, the vast majority of whom have no insurance."

"As stated previously law enforcement officials are suspecting that Mexican cartels started these devastating fires.  The cartel does not like competition especially when it comes to making drug money and if California is now legalizing marijuana you can bet that the drug lords are not happy.  These ruthless individuals will continue on their path of destruction unless there is something to stop them.  What that something is would be a wall between the Mexican border and the United States to prevent these people from entering our country.  There is no reason that these criminals should be allowed to sneak into America and create havoc on innocent people."

Every Good Thing Which Is In You

This is from the blog Words from the Crucible:

The words of the Lord are pure words:
as silver tried in a furnace of earth,
purified seven times.
(Psalm 12:6)

It is the method of God that His holy things are brought forth through earthen vessels who are being inwardly purged by His fire. The place of purity and holiness is the place of judgement: it is the realm of God’s dwelling wherein all the hidden secrets of men’s hearts are naked and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom each shall give an account. It is the habitation sought diligently TODAY by those who seek first God’s kingdom and righteousness. For righteousness is seen in the free flow of that lively river which makes glad the city of God, and it is heard in the pure words borne of His fiery trials. Each person in His city is to be the open conduit of that river, and each one of them the earthen furnace bearing His perfect silver.

So let the wise rejoice, those who seek the “seven times” refining of His furnace that only the purest of silver might be brought forth – yes, let them be glad; for He has placed within every heart of His redeemed a lamp unto their feet and a light unto their path, if they would but look unto that indwelling Counselor. And do not be restrained by the falsehood of men who deny the salvation of the soul, as though it remained the perpetual enemy of God even in faith. For the soul of a man yields to the will whomever’s word he believes, and the soul of the redeemed can always freely yield to the Spirit of God. “He restores my soul” – it is the truth, believe it! The soul trusting in God despite the accusatory voice is the soul which presently finds the benefits of its restoration: it is the redeemed heart being capacitated to house greater and deeper things of God for His righteousness to be walked in, in this life! Blessed are they who do not harden their hearts to Him who is speaking to them TODAY. The over-analysis of man’s fickle outward countenance works to the paralysis of faith; but by beholding His countenance whose Spirit dwells in us, we find ourselves inheriting the promise of the guarantee already deposited within the creature. For doubtless He gladly delivers us TODAY into a holy ability by the power of His Spirit; but “weeping and gnashing of teeth” is the inheritance of the faithless, who cast doubt upon the thoroughness of the Lord’s very present provision.

The wise keep ready with their lamps ever full of His oil; but the foolish must feign spirituality, for theirs are filled instead with the lengthy tomes of man’s darkened understanding. O, that they would see, and such grievous vanity be displaced by the beaming brevity of the Spirit of the Lord! The foolish refuse to discover and interact with the Lord’s inheritance within them so that they may preserve the familiarity of their emptiness; but the wise freely acknowledge His inheritance within them so that His living waters might liberally burst forth from out of their own being…

…that the communication of thy faith may become effectual
by the acknowledging of every good thing
which is in you in Christ Jesus.
(Philemon 1:6)

Every member of God’s house has the ability to quench the fire and dam the river. Many have gone to a certain point in the things of the Spirit and become content not to continue beyond whatever satisfies those around them. But those who refuse to become dull of hearing and weary of seeing the things of God are not content to stay behind the lines which their forefathers have drawn. My participation in THE faith which is mine in Christ Jesus becomes effectual not by the wishful admiration of things yet outside of me, but rather by the acknowledging of every good thing which is verily in me through Him! Let the veil of shame and false humility be removed; let the redeemed souls of the Lord not shrink back from walking after His declaration.

Those who never step forward despite the darkness which they see within themselves will never pass through that blinding shroud and cast it off behind them. What (or Who) we behold is that to which we become beholden in our walk; and we are to behold the glory of the Lord as in a mirror! For as much as it is not a matter of beholding ourselves, it is yet also not a matter of beholding a thing outside ourselves. For we shall only walk as children of light by beholding that Light who resides within us. At all times He is there, eagerly shining forth to the end that His illumination would be acknowledged and not neglected for the familiar ways of men. We are commanded to walk as children of light because we ARE already light in the Lord (Eph 5:8). And in the confidence of this soul-anchoring hope, we may turn our eyes with singularity upon He who hereby liberates us to walk in the fuller victory to which we have been called…

…whenever one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
And we all, with unveiled face seeing the glory of the Lord as in a mirror,
are transformed into the same image from glory to glory,
even as from the Lord, the Spirit.
(2 Corinthians 3:16-18)

Is not your life hid with Christ in God? For He is the Shepherd Whose very habitation is His sheep: this is why they shall not want – unless they seek the ministration of another. The church of today are spectating at the Dead Sea rather than wading into the Jordan: not only do they err in their manner of participation, but they partake of the wrong sort of waters! They hang upon the empty words of men, whose rivers are long stilled and their fires long quenched; rather than allowing the word of the Lord to become as a fire in their very own bones, constraining them to act on the things which they have seen and heard unto the overflow of their own waters. The true Life of God begins flowing in the secret place; and it calls for the same dynamic in others. But the spirit of any other cistern is a strange woman seducing men of God to trade the fountain of living waters for a broken well which can hold none.

Drink waters out of thine own cistern,
and running waters out of thine own well.
(Proverbs 5:15)

Those merely going after the revelation of another are truly being drawn away by the spirit of antichrist, following the voice of mere men; trading the divine ministration already at work within them for the fireless words of man’s dammed river. For even if they “follow” a man whose words are truly fire and whose river is truly flowing, they can neither truly receive nor utilize it as such, since they themselves are still trusting in man. But we have one Teacher, even the Christ. For “there are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand.” (Prov 19:21). We each have a choice as to whether it shall be the council of men or the counsel of the Lord given audience within our hearts. True things shall not be settled for apart from the Truth Himself – it is a matter of Life or death. One keeps moving in the daily-new things of God; the other terminates course while His ever-present call continues flowing onward and upward.

While men remain sitting their whole lives contemplating the wonderful truth that there is nothing good in them apart from Christ, the wise are found shamelessly acknowledging unto transformation every good thing which He has now indeed placed within them. That which we commit to the Lord He is able to keep; let us therefore apprehend in Him that for which we were already apprehended by Him, guarding the good deposit entrusted to us. For that good deposit of His Spirit is guarded by the using of it; through which He brings forth the increase.

Whatever a man sows, that shall he also reap.

For this reason I remind you
to fan into flame the gift of God,
which is in you…
(2 Timothy 1:6)

It is Finished

This is from the blog Theological Jon:

The perfections, also known as the attributes, of God are often abused today. Not that people mess up on the definitions of these beautiful perfections of God, but that it can be rather easy to overemphasize one perfection/attribute over others. Such it is with the love of God. Yes, God is loving, but we must never say that His love outweighs God’s holiness, righteousness, justice, and so on. Yet, it is common to say that God’s love is the only attribute contributing to the salvation of man is dangerously wrong. As Oswald Chambers explains in today’s devotional, God does not forgive us for our sin only because He loves us. Love is an attribute included in the process of forgiveness, but true forgiveness of sins comes only through the death of His Son. This supreme act to forgive man for their sin includes all the attributes of God, not just love. At the cross, we see God’s holiness, righteousness, justice, mercy, grace, love, power, and sovereignty.

It is Finished! 

"I have finished the work which You have given Me to do." 

(John 17:4)

"The death of Jesus Christ is the fulfillment in history of the very mind and intent of God. There is no place for seeing Jesus Christ as a martyr. His death was not something that happened to Him— something that might have been prevented. His death was the very reason He came.

"Never build your case for forgiveness on the idea that God is our Father and He will forgive us because He loves us. That contradicts the revealed truth of God in Jesus Christ. It makes the Cross unnecessary, and the redemption “much ado about nothing.” God forgives sin only because of the death of Christ. God could forgive people in no other way than by the death of His Son, and Jesus is exalted as Savior because of His death. “We see Jesus…for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor…” (Hebrews 2:9). The greatest note of triumph ever sounded in the ears of a startled universe was that sounded on the Cross of Christ— “It is finished!” (John 19:30). That is the final word in the redemption of humankind.

"Anything that lessens or completely obliterates the holiness of God, through a false view of His love, contradicts the truth of God as revealed by Jesus Christ. Never allow yourself to believe that Jesus Christ stands with us, and against God, out of pity and compassion, or that He became a curse for us out of sympathy for us. Jesus Christ became a curse for us by divine decree. Our part in realizing the tremendous meaning of His curse is the conviction of sin. Conviction is given to us as a gift of shame and repentance; it is the great mercy of God. Jesus Christ hates the sin in people, and Calvary is the measure of His hatred."

--Oswald Chambers

The Eagle's Fighting Tactic

This is from the blog Making It Glad:

Eagles are one of my favourite birds. Besides being so majestic, they mate for life, build one nest that lasts forever and they face storms head on rather than hiding from them. The most interesting trait is how they fight their enemy. Their biggest enemy is a snake, but eagles never stand for their attacks. They never fight the snake on the ground – they either pick it up and shake it to death or fly high and drop it onto rocks below.

By doing this, the eagle changes the battleground. As a result, the snake has no stable ground or stamina and is therefore weak and useless to fight back effectively.

God tells us to take note of “the way of the eagle in the air” (Proverbs 30:19), because Satan first appeared to people in the form of a snake. This snake works tirelessly to actively ruin our life-and that includes our thought life!

We change our battle ground when we take our thoughts captive and pray- it is then that God can step in and take over. Don’t ever fight Satan, and the thoughts he throws at you about your health, in his comfort zone. Claim the battle field.  Lift yourselves up by praying and then throw the enemy and his lies onto the Rock- which is Jesus:

“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; The God of my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge; my Saviour, You save me from violence.” ~ 2 Samuel 22:2-3

Remember, we have been given authority to trample over serpents and scorpions in Jesus’ name (Luke 10:19). Snakes never survive a rock encounter! So there is never a need to ever entertain hypochondriacal thoughts- you throw it onto the Rock by fighting back with the promises of Scripture.
