Seed, part 1

1. One among many wonderful gifts God has given us in Genesis creation account, is seed. Seed is a most amazing creation. It comes in many many different forms.

“And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.” Genesis 1:29

I picked up a book that had a title, “Unlimited Abundance”. I said to myself ain’t no such thing as unlimited abundance. Shortly after that statement, I was walking as a form of exercise and I was praying. The Lord began to minister to me about unlimited abundance.

He pointed out the number of trees, the blades of grass, the tree seedlings, the grain of sands, leaves on the trees, the fish in the sea. All these are without number. They are innumerable. In Genesis 41:49 reads “And Joseph gathered corn as the sand of the sea, very much, until he left numbering; for it was without number.”

At that time the county was repaving the Southfield expressway. They removed the old cement and replaced all new cement for miles. I had the Lord say to me, ‘have they ever run out of cement?’ I had to answer, “No”. Everywhere I looked, there were cement side walks, streets, driveways, parking lots, brick building, etc…

That conversation started me on a journey of the renewal of the mind. I had been mentally conditioned by the world around me to think lack, shortage and inability.

God began to minister to me about the unlimited potential of seed. For example, a human baby grows from a tiny seed about size of a dot above an i. That seed multiplies million and millions millions of times to produce a human being. It continues to grow for years to come.

Another example, take an apple 🍎 seed and plant it. That single apple seed will multiply millions of times into a tree with thousands of apples each having more seeds in them.

A watermelon 🍉 seed multiplies millions of times in size from a small seed. It contains vitamins and juice that’s sweet and nutritious.

The only thing man seem to have an unlimited supply of is 💰 money. The difference between money and seed is, your money never gains value over time. Seed never ever loses value.

There is a big big difference between “unlimited” as defined by God and man. Man promises you unlimited data on your cell phone plan but if you go over a certain limit they will cut you back. But God, when pours out a blessing, it’s more than enough to meet every over and above.

Get your treasure in God’s hands

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: for where your treasure is, there will be your heart be also.” Matthew 6:19-21

Seed is that treasure you want to get into God’s hands.

God provides seed to sowers and bread 🍞 for our food. He multiplies the seed we sow and increases the fruits of our righteousness, 2 Corinthians 9:10. The fruit of your righteousness simply means your success will grow as well.

God is the greatest fund manager there ever was. He is faithful and just. We are told to seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all those other things will be added unto you.

The reason why these things are hard for people to understand is because their understanding of seed and the seed time harvest process is still at baby stage. They won’t take the time to work the system.

If you go to the book of Revelation 22:1-5, you will see the seed time harvest process will go with us into eternity. By the way, “trees and the tree system is God’s choice method of getting things into our hands.

Tress of life in the midst yielding twelve manner of fruits, Revelation 22:2

Yields fruit every month. The leaves are for the healing of the nations, Revelation 22:2

Grace & peace

Level playing field, part 5

1. The One who commanded light to shine out of darkness with 4 words, “Let there be light” and light was and God saw the light that it was GOOD. See Genesis 1:3-4. He shines in our hearts 💕 💞 ♥️

2. John 1:1-5 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was with in the beginning with God. All things were by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. IN HIM WAS LIFE, AND THE LIFE WAS THE LIGHT OF MEN. AND THE LIGHT SHINETH IN DARKNESS: AND THE DARKNESS COMPREHENDED IT NOT.”

2. He was in the world and the world was made by him. The world knew him not. He came to his own people and they did not receive him. John 1:10-11

3. But as many AS received him, to them gave God gave power, John 1:12

4. THE WORD God was made flesh and dwelt among us. We beheld his glory. The glory of the only begotten Son of God full of grace and truth, John 1:14

5. Of His fullness have we all RECEIVED grace for grace, John 1:16. Every season of your life, there is grace to be had or experienced. But the grace has to be received. It’s your inheritance. If you don’t fight for it, it will pass you by.

1 Timothy 6:13, Fight the good fight of faith. Lay a hold of eternallife. When I think about fighting the good fight of faith, I think about the heavy weight champion Mike Tyson when he was preparing for a fight. He was super focused, like a lazer beam. He was intentional.

Without faith, it is impossible to please God. I believed the laws of inheritance were designed to work by faith, because when something is given to people without a cost to them personally, they do not honor those gifts.

6. I know people who struggle with suicidal thoughts and depression. But if they only knew the One who leveled mountains and hills, elevated the deepest vallies. Made crooked places straight and rough places smooth. The One who leveled the playing field so that anybody anywhere can receive deliverance and freedom. They’re broken hearts can be healed, Luke 4:18.

7. The One, who in the beginning, commanded light to shine out darkness. The One who divided the light from the darkness. He shines in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus.

Get this: this treasure resides on the inside of us. 2 Corinthians 4:6-7

8. The playing field is leveled because the Son of God was manifested that he might destroy the works of the devil, 1 John 3:8

Because God’s SEED remains in you reproducing the life and light of God in you, 1 John 3:9

9. There is nothing, absolutely nothing that can separate us from the love of God, Romans 8:35-39

10. There is no sin that stop God from granting you eternal life. The thing that can and does stop the power is your choice not to receive. So many people make their problems so big and scary 😨. But the truth is Jesus paid your for your sins in full, John 3:16. God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have the gift of Life.

You know what condemns a person, what gives depression and suicidal thoughts a foothold- choice- God gave people dominion on earth and he never took it away. Everything that moves, swims, fly… See Genesis 1:28. Some people use their God given dominion to hurt others. You never have to give in to its, thems, or theys.

11. “And this is the condemnation, that LIGHT is come into the world, AND MEN LOVED DARKNESS rather than LIGHT…” John 3:19 that’s CHOICE. Adam chose the forbidden fruit.

The light wasn’t deficient or powerless. Darkness could not stop it or put it. In Him was life and the life was light to people.

What stop it? ✋️ Choice. What cause life to flow? Choice

Level playing field, 4

1. The orginal system of creation, was/is designed around worship of God. You had the sacrifice, originally fruit that fell from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. After which animal blood was used as a sacrifice. In eternity according to Revelation 22:1, you have the Lamb of God seated on the throne, the perfect Sacrifice.

2. ALL THINGS were created by Him, for Him, and exist for His pleasure, John 1:3; Revelation 4:11

3. Baically all things in creation were designed to be self-sustaining. Adam’s job was to recreate heaven, the garden of Eden on earth.

4. Adam and every human being was given dominion on earth to carry out the original design and assignment.

5. Adam gave part of his dominion to a third party, the Serpent.

6. Adam’s disobedience opened the door to the Serpent. The Serpent gained “SEED” and gained access out of Adam’s decision, See Genesis 3:15 & Revelation 12:9

7. The Serpent gained SEED in the sense that people listens to him and act upon his suggestions. For example, in the parable of the end time harvest in Matthew 13:24-30, Jesus explained the tares seen among the wheat

“He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; the FIELD is the world; the good SEED are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the WICKED ONE; the enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.” Matthew 13:37-39

8. The Serpent has the ability to reproduce himself into others. His name, the WICKED ONE, describes his works, he twist things until they serve no purpose. Ephesians 2:1-2, The prince of the power of the air, THE SPIRIT, that now work in the children of disobedience.

9. The ground was cursed because of Adam’s CHOICES. He failed to guard the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. He failed to guard the way to the tree of life. He allowed the Serpent to deceive and he went along with the deception. Adam was not deceived, he made a choice See 1 Timothy 2:14

10. BUT the curse was lifted in Genesis 8:21-22; in Deuteronomy 28:8; John 3:16, Ephesians 1:2.

2 Peter 1:2-4

“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, according as his DIVINE POWER hath given unto us ALL THINGS that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath CALLED us to glory and virtue:

( just a thought on the concept of the word “calling”: God called for Adam in Genesis 3:9. God was calling for Adam to be in the appointed place at the appointed time. But Adam was too busy trying to medicate his wound with leaves from among the trees of the Garden. This wouldn’t make much sense if it were not for these scriptures references: Ezekiel 47:12 & Revelation 22:2 which makes references to leaves being used as medicine to heal bruises and wounds.)

Whereby ARE GIVING UNTO US EXCEEDING GREAT and PRECIOUS PROMISES: that BY THESE ye might be partakers of the DIVINE NATURE, having escaped the corruption that us in the world through lust.”

11. The FIELD has been leveled. Everyone has an equal chance. God leveled the mountains and hills, he elevated the vallies. He straightened out the CROOKED PLACES and he made the rough places smooth. GOD gives to EVERYONE SEED, See Matthew 13:1-12; Mark 4:1-9; & Luke 8:4-15. God has restored a perfect Sacrifice, HE gave us the Lamb of God. All SEED is supernatural. It was designed by God to reproduce “life”

Get this: when you received Jesus as your Lord and Savior, the gift of God is the river of God. The river that flows out of the throne of God flows out of you! See John 4:13-14; John. 7:37-38

12. However, the Serpent is still on earth until his time is up. He is deceiving people. He is still robbing people of the tree of life. He is still getting people to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. People can not blame the government. They can not blame the doctors. They can not blame their jobs because the field has been leveled. The Serpent still comes to steal, kill and destroy ONLY BECAUSE PEOPLE listen to him, Matthew 13:8

Jesus came that we might have life and have it more abundantly, John 10:10.

1. I give you power over all the power of the enemy, Luke 10:17

2. I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning, Luke 10:18

3. All power in heaven and earth has been given unto me, Matthew 28:18

4. Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these other things shall be added unto you! Matthew 6:38

5. First bind the strong man then you can spoil his goods, Luke 11:20-22

6. Thirty, sixty and one hundredfold more, Matthew 13:23

7. Every valley shall be exalted, every mountain and hill made low, Crooked places made straight and rough places plain, Isaiah 40:3-4

8. He who commanded light to shine out of darkness hath shined in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. We have this treasure in earthen vessels, 2 Corinthians 4:5-7

9. As many as RECEIVED him, he gave power to become children of God, John 1:12

10. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness; and darkness comprehended it not. John 1:1-5

The playing field of Genesis 2:4-7, the dust of the ground from which man was created, God has made him a new creation, old things have passed away all things have become new, 2 Corinthians 5:17-18

The playing field has been leveled. Every one has an equal chance to have life and have it more abundantly, John 10:10

I served in one capacity after another for a majority of my life, starting with four years in the U.S Marine Corp at the age of 19. I served as a pastor for over 30 years. I served as a volunteer chaplain in the Wayne County Jail, Dickerson Detention Facility, Detroit Rescue Mission and the Detroit Police Department. I also prayed with a number of prayer groups both large and small.

Victim mentality

What I learned over this course of time is that there are always victims for one reason or another. Victims in the sense, that there are no jobs, can’t get a job. The system is unjust, unfair, racism, prejudices. I came across a Titok video where a man was raging against pastors and churches blaming them for not helping people in the streets.

I held worship services in the jails and homeless shelters. I bought into the lie that if people just knew that God would supply their needs, they would not have to be victims of an unjust system because God would supply their needs.

The Truth is

God put everyone on a level playing field. For example, Ephesians 2:4-7 says,

“But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: that in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.”

“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” John 1:12-13

I had a supervisor who always said, “The squeaky wheel gets the oil.” It seems like the people who make the loudest noise get the most attention.

“Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.” Psalms 89:14

The truth is, no matter how bad things look, God is still in control. He destroyed the world through a flood because of wickedness and no doubt, he is able to destroy it again. I have seen a lot of rainbows lately. It is because of his mercies that we are not consumed.

You determine your own future

A large part of my walk with God was spent being in bondage to the system of man one way or another. For example, my financial situation didn’t change until I realized that I can determine my future through the seeds that I sow. I became debt-free in a matter of 17 months during a pandemic, paying off a mortgage and a credit card.

If you don’t like the fruit in your life, check the seed; what kind of seed are sowing?

‘Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting. And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season shall reap, if we faint not.” Galatians 6:7-9

Matter of Justice

Im talking about justice in the sense of righting wrongs! One area that I’m seeking justice in is, the mafia tax, the excessively high auto insurance rates that are being forced upon us because Satan’s children are stealing cars and filing false insurance claims.

“And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always pray, and not faint; saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: and there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying Avenge me of mine adversary. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by continual coming she weary me. And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth.” Luke 18:1-8

We are beginning to reap justice in the matter of excessively high insurance rates. Michigan drivers just received $400.00 rebate per insured car from the insurance industry.

Grace and Peace!

“Faith will get you out the ship, but trusting God will get you to the other side of sea without sinking.”

Watch “The First Principles Method Explained by Elon Musk” on YouTube

Hebrews chapters 5 verse 12, says

“For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be THE FIRST PRINCIPLES OF THE ORACLES OF GOD; and are become such as have need of milk, and not strong meat.”

I know Mr. Elon Musk is speaking from a natural physical point of view. But there is a much greater revelation to be received in relation to the Word of God, particularly the mystery of God.

Matthew chapter 13 verses 35 through 36, reads “All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.”

The apostle Paul talks about the mysteries that were given unto him which were not revealed in other ages, See Ephesians chapter three verses 1 through 5.

The difference between the children of this world and the children of light is in their ability to leverage the resources of this world in such a way as to generate profits.

In Luke chapter 16 verse 8, Jesus said,

“And the lord commended the unjust steward, because he had done wisely: for the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.”

Understanding the first principles, gives you the ability to understand how God put the house (creation, See Hebrews 3:4) together. In order to do that you have to go back to the beginning, see Genesis chapter 1-3.

The children of this world may know how to take the laws and principles of business and profit from it. But the end purpose is always the same, do such ventures advance the kingdom of God, read James 4:13-15

The rich foolish man and the rich young ruler found that the pursue of riches is a waste of time. According to Luke 12:13-20, the rich foolish man died before finishing his dream. The rich young ruler walked away sad, Mark 10:22

For Revelation chapter 4 verse 11 reads

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”

This one scripture explains the purpose of creation

-He created all things

-All things exist for his pleasure

-All things were created for his pleasure

Saint John chapter 1 verses 1 through reads “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. ALL THINGS WERE MADE BY HIM; AND WITHOUT HIM WAS NOT ANY THING MADE THAT WAS MADE.”

Colossians chapter 1 verses 15 through 19, speaking of the supremacy of Christ,

“For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM, AND FOR HIM: AND HE IS BEFORE ALL THINGS, AND BY HIM ALL THINGS CONSIST.”

Colossians chapters 1 verse 20, “And having made peace through the blood of his cross, BY HIM TO RECONCILE ALL THINGS UNTO HIMSELF; BY HIM, I SAY, WHETHER THEY BE THINGS IN EARTH, OR THINGS IN HEAVEN.”

According to Ephesians chapter 1 verse 22, He is the head of all things and all things have been put of under his feet,

Read Hebrews chapter three verse 1 through 4, reads

“WHEREFORE, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house. For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as HE WHO HATH BUILDED THE HOUSE HATH MORE HONOUR THAN THE HOUSE. FOR EVERY HOUSE IS BUILDED BY SOME MAN; BUT HE THAT BUILT ALL THINGS IS GOD.”

The calling of God

Go back to the beginning in Genesis chapter 3 verse 9, there is that calling of God back into position. Adam couldn’t come back into position because he was naked. He wasn’t just naked but death had begin to fasten itself in his body.

I have been a minister for over 30 years. I have served in several fields of ministry. I served as a volunteer chaplain in the Wayne County Jail, Dickerson Detention Facility, Detroit Rescue Mission, and as a Detroit Police Chaplain for 22 years. I served as a participant of several prayer ministries. One central theme that connects these ministries is brokenness. People are broken and are trying to medicate their wounds, like Adam, among the trees of the garden.

God has rebooted the system

Jesus is the Second Adam, First Corinthians 15 verses 45 through 49

Jesus is the beginning of a new creation. He is the first born from the dead. If any man be in Christ he is a new creation, old things have passed away behold all thing have become new! 2 Corinthians 5:17-18

First Peter chapter 2 verse 9, “But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.”

For what purpose

According to Second Peter chapter 1 verses 1 through 4

“Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, according as his divine power hath given unto all thing that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, according as his divine power hath given to us ALL THINGS that pertain unto life and godliness through the knowledge of him that hath CALLED US to glory and virtue. Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escape the corruption that is in the world through lust.”

Grace & peace!

Level playing Field

John the Baptist was called a fore-runner for the ministry of Jesus. He prepared the way for people mot be able to receive the ministry of Jesus Christ. Isaiah 40:3-5

“The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made (4)straight, and the rough places (5)plain: and the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and ALL FLESH SHALL IT TOGETHER: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.”

In my Bible, there is the number 4 next to the word “straight” and in the margins it defines the or given clarification of what the word means in the Hebrew Language. In the scripture above is says, straight means “straight places”. The same thing with the word, “plain”. It means plain places.

When the priest and Levites from Jerusalem asked John the Baptist, “Who are you?” John the Baptist clearly says,

“He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias.” John 1:23

John’s ministry leveled the playing field for ALL to able to received from the hand of God. God designed the system. We are living in a day and time where good people, smart people are not able to receive from the Hand of God. It’s not because God’s system is unfair, but the god of this world has blinded their minds so that they can’t receive.

1 John 5:19, says the whole world lies under the sway of wickedness or the Wicked One, as in the sense of a deep sleep. Comatose would be a good word to described the reality of darkness working in the hearts of unbelievers.

What was so unique about John’s ministry?

When I was growing up in my earlier Christian years, I was overwhelmed by a sense of lack and poverty even though I had a good job. I was in debt. I constantly struggled with inferiority. I was always depended on others for my needs.

What changed my life is when I finally realized that God made it possible for every single person to be able to receive from the hand of God. He made a way in the desert, a highway. He elevated every valley. He leveled the mountains and the hills. He made the crooked places straight and the rough places plain, in other words, he leveled the playing field.

God not only did that in Jesus and John’s day, but for all humanity today. Look at Ephesians 2:4-7

“But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) and hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: that in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.”

Although we are on earth, God has raised us and MADE us to be seated in Jesus Christ. There are no inequalities there. There is no lack, no sickness no disease. Politics and politicians doesn’t hold sway there. There are no holes, ditches, pits, afflictions.

Luke 4:18

Jesus read from the book of Isaiah 61 on the Sabbath day in his synagogue beginning in Luke 4:16-21,

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captive, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised. To preach the acceptable day of the Lord.”

The next thing that Jesus said, was so amazing, so overwhelming, so awesome, especially for me because when I understood what he was saying, I no longer saw myself as inferior, busted, broken, needing a loan just to survive for another day.

Jesus said, this

“And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture FULFILLED IN YOUR EARS.” Luke 4:21 (KJV)

THIS DAY, even our day and every other day is this scripture being fulfilled. How did his audience respond to him? They got offended and tried to throw him off a cliff, head first.

Even though Luke 4:18, tells us the playing field has be leveled, there is that inability to received from the hand of God.

We have all suffered from depression at one time or another in our lives. There is a depression so overwhelming that people sometimes seek suicide to escape its torment. But the good news is, God has leveled the playing field. It is as easy saying yes, I receive. Read Romans 10:6-13

He is the One who originally commanded light to shine out of darkness. According to 2 Corinthians 4:6, God commands the light of the knowledge of his glory to shine in our hearts.

John 1:5, Light shines in darkness and darkness could not put it out.

Satan can never put out The Light but he can convince you to say no what has been purchased and paid for in full, that is the grace and goodness of God.

Christ shall give you Light,

Ephesians 5:14, awake, arise from the dead and Christ shall give you light. This neutralizes anything and everything the world throws at you.

One thing about the Light, its effectiveness is in your ability to receive it, embrace it and give it time to work itself out!

I have come across people who have more faith in there sickness than they do in the goodness of God. Or maybe they were never told that the field of life has been leveled.
