The Judgment Of God Is In Our Land Artwork

15 Minutes With Jesus

I want to encourage you to listen to this program which my Lord Jesus has given me to publish every week: 15 Minutes With Jesus. A little history to the fact: about one year ago I finally decided to set aside Saturday, every week, as a day for God; not in the sense of keeping the Sabbath, but rather as a day for Him in which I don’t do my own work, or my own pleasure, but rather I seek only to do what He would have me do that day; set aside for Him. Shortly after making that commitment to Him, the Lord spoke to my heart and told me that because I had honored Him, He was going to honor me. Then a few days later Jesus told me He wanted me to do a 15 minute program. Almost immediately the name 15 Minutes With Jesus came up in my heart, also the scripture, Matt 18:20, Jesus said, For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. So I spend time during the week in the scriptures and prayer, seeking the Lord and every week He gives me the Words He would have me share with you. We pray before every broadcast and seek to be filled with the Holy Spirit when we do the program. So as Darlene and I gather together in Jesus name with you, if you can receive it, we will be in His presence and receiving from Him the edification, exhortation and comfort He is giving us. Jesus said, The Words I speak, they are Spirit and they are life.

The Judgment Of God Is In Our Land

The judgment of God is in our land, not to condemn us, but to turn us from our evil ways, and to bring us back to God.

The Judgment Of God Is In Our Land

Greetings in the name of Jesus! This is Rob Haymes. This is 15 Minutes With Jesus. Wherever two or three are gathered together in My name, Jesus said, there am I in the midst of them. To those of you who love Him in truth: mercy unto you and peace and love be multiplied. (Jude 1:2)

We thank you, Father, in Jesus’ name; thank you Father. Glory and honor to your holy name; thank you Lord, Amen. Praise God Almighty! Our hearts go out to those people that are suffering right now, as a result of the floods that have happened. It’s a time of great grief and great suffering, and we just pray right now for mercy, that you would have mercy on many people that are suffering right now, in Jesus’ name. Thank you Lord.

Today’s program is called, The Judgment Of God Is In Our Land. Mat 7:7, Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in Heaven give good things to those who ask Him! Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. Rom 8:4, that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. The works of the flesh are evil against another person. Adultery, fornication, hatred, murder, drunkenness, etc. If you are walking in the flesh, you are not fulfilling the righteousness of the law; you are doing evil against your neighbor, not what you would have them do to you. Therefore, you ask and you don’t receive; you seek and you don’t find. You knock and it is not opened unto you.

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance; against such there is no law. Gal 5:24, And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Mat 7:13, Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. The fruit of the Spirit is love: the love of God, and love for your neighbor. The only way you can do this is in love: the love that God has for you, that He gave His beloved Son for you, to suffer so much for you, to free you from sin, and to give you His Holy Spirit to teach you and to guide you into all truth, continuing in the Words of Jesus, being His true disciple, knowing the truth, and the truth making you free from your slavery to sin; from the works of the flesh, to walk in the Spirit. Gal 5:25, If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Gal 5:16, I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Rom 8:12, Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. This is the narrow gate, and it is difficult. You must die; your flesh must be crucified through the Cross.

Because of the love of God, you can do it, through the Holy Spirit. He will teach you; He will guide you into all truth, as you continue in the Words of Jesus, and the truth will make you free. You will be broken to pieces as you yield to Him to fall on the precious Cornerstone, to love your enemies; to forgive that person that hurt you so much and did you so wrong; to go to that person that you did wrong to and humble yourself and repent and make things right; to do good to those that hate you and pray for those who use you and persecute you. It’s hard! It’s not easy. It was not easy for Jesus to go to the Cross. This is what He meant when He said, If you will be My disciple, you must deny yourself every day, and take up your cross and follow Me. Mat 16:24, Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? If you will be My disciple, you must deny yourself every day, and take up your cross and follow Me. Jesus was crucified on His Cross, and we will be crucified on ours-if we love Him; if we love the Father and we will put to death the deeds of our flesh, and we will be raised with Him to walk in newness of life through the Holy Spirit. He will lead us, if we will yield to Him, and we will be sons and daughters of God. Luke 9:23, Then He said to them all, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it.

In America we have so much false teaching: that a person can live in the flesh, doing the works of the flesh, and they are covered; already forgiven, past, present, and future, by the sacrifice of Jesus. In other words, if you believe in Jesus, you can live after the flesh and go to Heaven, when Romans eight, and many other scriptures clearly teach to the contrary. No! If you do the works of the flesh; if you won’t repent and turn from those works, you will die; you will perish eternally. If a person will repent of those works and turn from them and learn to put them to death by the Holy Spirit, being led by Him in the love of Jesus, to do His Words, they will overcome and they will live: they will inherit eternal life in Him.

The judgment of God is in our land, not to condemn us, but to turn us from our evil ways, and to bring us back to God. John 3:16, For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed. But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in God. Now is the time to take heed to these things, and to seek Him with all your heart. Now is the time to draw near to God in humility and fear and true repentance, seeking understanding from Him and seeking His righteousness. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9) If we seek after righteousness, Jesus said, we shall be filled. God said, If we seek Him with all our heart, we will find Him. Yes, He loves us! No, He is not condemning us. But this is His judgment, and we must repent of our evil ways and turn to Him, or we will perish.

Then we need to follow on with Jesus, in the Holy Spirit; in His Word, and learn His ways and walk in them. We must do righteousness; we must be holy. Yes you can do this: holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord. Yes, you can do this if you love Him and turn from the evil of your doings, continuing in His Word, with the Holy Spirit guiding you and teaching you. Get yourself away from the false teachers that are telling you that everything is ok, when it is not ok. And turn to God; truly come to Him. He can help you, if you will repent and love His truth.

Mat 7:19, Jesus said, Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Therefore by their fruits you will know them. Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name? And then I will declare to them, I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness! Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, (the Sermon on the Mount) and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.
