The garment of praise agst the heaviness of the fresh. The flesh is the canal mind that doesn't agree to the will and cannot keep the laws of God.canal doesn't equal Faith it's outside of obedience. To break the heaviness we need praise.sometime l have experienced that in that moment am struggling to sing am not even close to delighting in the truth of God because heaviness is in different form it can be coming from lost of family member ,a dear one, it can be disappointment,it's can be lack,it can come from the very people that are to stand with you,it can be sickness. All these are overcome through faith. It's often advised never to make a decision in any state when you are not thinking right. When angry don't, wait 3 days and see and revisit your situation. Worship to be light even when you don't feel like it ,feeling is part of flesh. But worship anyway until you can come to the place of worship then He will carry you to lightness.your problem may not go away but you will be in a position to see clearly,you will encourage,you will be light to run the race, you will gain power to continue.. All that you are going through is part of Christianity.(Look back how many times have you been in that case and see where you are.still standing.be encourage you if you will, and will n allow the Spirit of God to breathe in.)
Something you must be in the presence of God to get. even though Esau was rightfully the first born . Yet it was in Jacob that the plan of God would be carried. Every circumstance that happened was to bring Jacob to it, maybe his zeal to be the first born made him attentive to capture every opening to attend it .
The need to discern so as not to be deceived should be your number one desire.. Isaac, even the elite will be deceived. Because the voice may be what leads you to doubt yet the action presents christianity, the miracles, the words of knowledge, the manner of conduct. just because its tree doesn't mean it will bring out fruits ,some will bring out bad fruits. but its in throught you senstivety to the Holy Spirit you can hear and tell.
Book of 1 kings 11.we see what brought Solomon to fall.The wise king of all time.the wisdom is not maintain in the presence n things of this world it's kept n renewed in the presence of God the fall came because there was already disobedience in taking the daughter of pharaoh which the Lord had said through Moses that they are noted to return to Egypt they were not to continue in doing of the Egyptian from where they came from.
We live in the days of King Solomon.we brought other people through marriage,through,jobs, through asylum seeker, through schools academic,through wars displacement, they all came with their custom and their gods, our leaders made ties with them for political contributions n condition but we forgot to teach them our ways, we gave them land to build their house of worship. In turn of this many gods in the land we thought they would be like us but they are not they cannot the many gods produced fruits,raise of false prophets, many more religion sprang up ,removing of Christianity in school, many gods will require sacrifices,so we allowed abortion, disobedience, little by little they took,little by little we became weak. and soon we conform to them, they ways, we eats their foods , their clothes we wore them,. we cannot judge but instead must awake and cry in repentances maybe the the Lord God will look unto our works and leave a blessing.
Darkness grew and the light that showed up on the high hill started to darken and it grew dim as more and more abomination poured in because now the hearts of our leaders turned to their gods and was no longer tender towards God. In our land we cannot pray in the public but they can pray. In the public. We cannot have laws of God in schools.we became weak. The heart of the people became softened now you cannot call sin they say you are being judgemental,they say you are being hateful the very go that are supposed to fight but have found comfort amidst the darkness. Mega church with no power. But they Worship the God of power do they say. The ordeal of King Solomon is alive today but in a different form.
We cannot judge King Solomon.we live on that day. The similarities are tight.

We study the bible as the Holy Spirit leads. when you come to the level of maturity we study differently you need only a few verses everyday that is your daily bread. you come to level place where you live in the positive realm without being positive .
