~The Lord Speaks~

    I didn't know what to call this post. First of all, I feel bad about not keeping up my monthly virtues posts. I should have, but I got side tracked. Now, I want to come back to it, but I plan to do this more often. While I love posting about what I'm doing, I have to post the most important part of what I'm doing. I'm glad that I can finally share the real part of my life: my walk with God. And so I'll be doing posts that are on my message notes, and they may come once a week, 3 times a week, or whenever but I am determined to keep them coming. :) And so where to start?
    Well recently, I've been listening to messages by Richard Owen Roberts, and Leonard Ravenhill. These men are GREAT men of God. And I'm not just saying that. If there are 'modern' prophets I believe these guys would be in that category. What I love about their messages, is that they preach TRUTH and DOCTRINE. I think one of their most admirable qualities are {Besides that their true men of God} is that they DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT ANYONE BUT GOD THINKS. It sounds like an understatement, but its not. They constantly say, "you can think I'm the best preacher, or the worst preacher, I don't care."
    And so I wanted to share with you, more often then not, about how the holy spirit has impacted me through them. Because these men, I'll tell you what they do. They really challenge your faith. Seriously, I've been convicted over and over and over and over again, just by listening to them. It never stops, and it never will stop. God just speaks SO MIGHTILY through them. I would recommend their teachings to anyone.
    The way I'm going to do this, is I'm just going to state a few quotes or points from their messages. Quotes that really got my attention, that convicted me, and that challenged me. Sometimes I'll probably comment on them, but really their statements for you to ponder, because I often ponder them myself.


     "So there is an additional truth laid out here, if today you are walking as the world walks, no matter what religion you claim, you still are walking dead. Those who are walking in God, don't belong in this world." -Richard Owen Roberts

      "WE WERE BORN IN SIN. WE WERE BORN PHYSICALLY ALIVE AND SPIRITUALLY DEAD." -Richard Owen Roberts.
    
      "do you push the devil around, or does he push you around?" -Leonard Ravenhill


    

    These quotes really got my attention. And I hope they get yours to, because they are so true. I'm just beginning to realize what it really means to be a follower of Christ. I haven't even touched the surface yet. By I'm praying I will and that you will to, because it's your most important calling.
  If you want any sermons by these guys or by anyone else, I'll be glad to get them for you. They are SO good and filled with incredible truth. 
  ~I hope your day is awesome.
