CHILDREN'S BREAD
But
Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not
meet to take the children's bread, and
to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord:
yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.
Mark
7:27-28
Give
us this day OUR DAILY BREAD.

The Blessedness of Man Is to Those of Faith, Not to Those of the Law

I have magnified my mercy, and you have found grace in my sight. You should have died in your sins. Hell should have been your lot, but I allowed your soul to live. Do not look back at the world, for there is nothing there but the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life. Do not love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If you love the world, the love of the Father is not in you. The world will pass away and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abides forever. The world hated me before it hated you. If men hate you, then are they of the world or of the truth?
If you were of the world, the world would love his own, but because you are not of the world, it hates you. I have chosen you out of the world; therefore, the world hates you. You are not greater than your Lord. If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they have not kept my sayings, why do you expect them to keep yours?
They are doing all these things to you because of my name’s sake because they do not know him that sent you. My sheep hear my voice. Why do you think that they reject the voice of God and the Rhema word?
I sent you to speak on my behalf. If I had not sent you and you had not spoken Rhema in their ears, they had not had sin, but now they have no cloak for their sin. He that hates you, hates me also. I sent you to bear witness of the truth and they refused you. You have done what I sent you to do. The truth has been preached and the grace that I desired to give them has been prophesied. Do not think more highly of yourself because I have used you. Through the grace that has been given you accept a right mind, and by the mercies of God present your body a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto me, which is your reasonable service. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you may prove what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God.
Continue prophesying according to the proportion of faith. Show mercy with cheerfulness and allow your love to flow without dissimulation. Be kindly affectionate to others with brotherly kindness, in honor, preferring one another. I separated you from your mother’s womb, and now I separate you unto myself for these last days. Come aside from the noise of brethren and listen to the call of grace. I will reveal myself in you and those who follow you so that you may preach me among the people of the world. Cease conferring with flesh and blood and come and reason with me. I will make you a mighty fisher of men. If you go in the path of men, you will miss the outpouring of my Spirit upon the hungry and the thirsty. Many people have not heard the Rhema from your mouth because men have alienated you from the people in your fellowship. I will send you in another direction so that the multitudes that I have chosen to hear the Rhema word will be blessed by the words of my mouth. I am rich in mercy, for my great love wherewith I have loved you, even when you were dead in sins, has quickened you together with Christ. I saved you by grace, raised you up together, and made you sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus that in the ages to come I might show the exceeding riches of my grace in my kindness toward you through Christ. It is by grace that you are saved through faith and that not of yourselves. It is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast.
Beware that you are not entangled in legalism in these last days. Beware of making things sin that I have not made sin, for where there is no law, there is no transgression. You will reap the wrath of God on yourself and those who follow you because you will make faith void and the promise of none effect. Remember, the promise that Abraham should be the heir of the world was not to him or to his seed through the law but through the righteousness of faith. If they that are of the law be heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of none effect because the law works wrath, for where no law is, there is no transgression. Hear my words. I have made you free from the legalities of men. You have not won many souls because of this entanglement with things that I have not made sin. A little leaven leavens the whole lump. Lay aside your pride and come walk with me by faith. I will show you new pathways of liberty.
Surely
the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his
servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear?
The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
Amos
3: 7 - 8




SCRIPTURAL
VERIFICATION
The
word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is,
the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess
with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart
that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For
with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the
mouth confession is made unto salvation.
(Romans
10:8-10)

Words of Light upon the Face of Dissimilation, Hatred, Legalism, Lust, Persecution, Pride, and Rejection
By Aaron Stickel

Jesus has magnified his mercy, and I have found grace in his sight. I should have died in my sins. Hell should have been my lot, but God allowed my soul to live. By grace, I determine not look back at the world, for there is nothing there but the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life. I will not love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If I love the world, the love of the Father is not in me. The world will pass away and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abides forever. The world hated the Lord before it hated me. If men hate me, then they are of the world. If I was of the world, the world would love its own, but because I am not of the world, it hates me. God has chosen me out of the world; therefore, the world hates me. I am not greater than my Lord. If they persecuted him, they will also persecute me. If they have not kept his sayings, they will not keep mine.They are doing all these things to me because of the Lord’s name’s sake because they do not know him that sent me. God’s sheep hear his voice. They reject the voice of God and the Rhema word because they cannot hear his voice.
God sent me to speak on his behalf. If he had not sent me and I had not spoken Rhema in their ears, they had not had sin, but now they have no cloak for their sin. He that hates me hates the Lord also. God sent me to bear witness of the truth and they refused me. I have done what he sent me to do. The truth has been preached and the grace that he desired to give them has been prophesied. I must not think more highly of myself because God has used me. Through the grace that has been given me I accept a right mind, and by the mercies of God I present my body a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is my reasonable service. I will not be conformed to this world but will be transformed by the renewing of my mind so that I may prove what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God.
I will continue to prophesy according to the proportion of faith. I determine to show mercy with cheerfulness and allow my love to flow without dissimulation. I will be kindly affectionate to others with brotherly kindness, in honor, preferring others. God separated me from my mother’s womb, and now he is separating me unto himself for these last days. I come aside from the noise of brethren and listen to the call of grace. Jesus will reveal himself in me and those who follow me so that I may preach him among the people of the world. I cease conferring with flesh and blood and come and reason with the Lord. He will make me a mighty fisher of men. If I go in the path of men, I will miss the outpouring of God’s Spirit upon the hungry and the thirsty. Many people have not heard the Rhema from my mouth because men have alienated me from the people in our fellowship. God will send me in another direction so that the multitudes that he has chosen to hear the Rhema word will be blessed by the words of his mouth. God is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he has loved me, even when I was dead in sins, has quickened me together with Christ. He saved me by grace, raised me up together, and made me sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward me through Christ. It is by grace that I am saved through faith and that not of myself. It is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast.
I will beware that I am not entangled in legalism in these last days. I will beware of making things sin that God has not made sin, for where there is no law, there is no transgression. I will reap the wrath of God on myself and those who follow me because I will make faith void and the promise of none effect. I remember the promise that Abraham should be the heir of the world was not to him or to his seed through the law but through the righteousness of faith. If they that are of the law be heirs, faith is made void and the promise made of none effect because the law works wrath, for where no law is, there is no transgression. I have heard the words of the Lord. He has made me free from the legalities of men. I have not won many souls because of this entanglement with things that God has not made sin. A little leaven leavens the whole lump. I have laid aside my pride, and now I am walking with Jesus by faith. He will show me new pathways of liberty.
Let
us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having
our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed
with pure water. Let
us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering;
(for he is faithful that promised;)
Hebrews
10:22 - 23
For
by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
Ephesians
2:8-9
