SELF DENIAL IS GOOD, DENIAL IS BAD

SELF DENIAL IS GOOD, DENIAL IS BAD

Self denial will prevent denial. Those who who refuse to deny self, will deny the darkness around them. There are multitudes of happy, clappy Christians that are in a continual party mood, while people around them are in such misery they are cutting themselves, overdosing, and putting a gun in their mouth and ending life instantly. To deny the darkness is to lie to oneself, caused by extreme selfishness, as in, me, my four and no more. I was despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and very acquainted with grief:"  Isaiah 53:3 KJV I denied nothing, and always understood that My purpose was ..."to preach the gospel to the poor; to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised," Luke 4:18 KJV

Therefore, I was accused of eating and drinking, and they said, Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But I could care less, because wisdom is always justified of her children." Matthew 11:19 KJV How can you heal the broken hearted, if you deny their existence and party all the time? The garden of Gethsemany where I sweat blood, was no party. There was no happy, clappy, that day. I could not carry a two hundred pound cross and dance at the same time. If any man wants to follow Me, he must deny himself, but not live in denial, and take up his cross daily, and follow me." Luke 9:23 KJV

The fact is, the world is coming to at fiery end and billions of people will die! Burying your head in the sand, plugging your ears and singing louder, crying, go away doom and gloom preacher, so you can enjoy a party, makes it far worse. You are ignoring the fact that your friends, neighbors, and relatives are destined for that horrible fate, when you can prevent some of them from suffering it. Yes, yes My Father is going to through you the biggest party you ever saw, He is preparing it now, but you may not be invited if you refuse your cross.  

Before the party begins you will hear of wars and insurrections (disturbances, disorder, and confusion), do not become alarmed and panic-stricken and terrified; for all this must take place first, before the party starts, but the end will not come immediately. [10] First nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. [11] There will be mighty and violent earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences (plagues: malignant cancer and contagious viruses or infectious epidemic diseases like aids, which are deadly and devastating); and there will be sights of terror and UFOs and great signs from heaven.

Now just previous to all this, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, turning you over to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be led away before kings and governors for My name's sake. [13] This will be a time (an opportunity) for you to bear testimony." Luke 21:8-13 AMP

This is when you can be happy, clappy, "glad and supremely joyful, for your reward in heaven is great (strong and intense), for in this same way people persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:12 AMP  This is crazy you say, NO My child this is kingdom! This is the end of the evil, wicked kingdom of darkness and the beginning of My kingdom of light on earth. 

Now here is the big deception; The anointing is a power tool to be used as the jaws of life, to "loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? [7] it is to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?" Isaiah 58:6-7 KJV 

THE ANOINTING IS NOT SO YOU CAN PARTY WHILE YOUR NEIGHBOR IS BOUND IN CHAINS AWAITING HELL. Stop living in denial My friend, and "lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset you, and run with patience the race that is set before you, [2] Looking unto Me the author and finisher of your faith; who for the joy that was set before Me, endured the cross, despising the shame, and am now set down at the right hand of the throne of God, waiting for you to finish, so the big party can begin!  Hebrews 12:1-2, KJV

Now don't be depressed, because here is the best part, while all of this happens around you on the outside, "the kingdom of God is already in you" Luke 17:21 KJV so even in the middle of fire you won't feel the flames and you can "rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:" 1 Peter 1:8 KJV Surprise you can actually enjoy a private party inside you all the way to the big party, while setting your neighbors free.  Now how's that for a kingdom?
