In the book of Isaiah 55:8-9 AKJV, the scripture reads:
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, said the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Although human beings (men and women) in the world have progressed in knowledge, education and information over the centuries, it is nothing compared to the wisdom and knowledge of Almighty God!

Someone may ask, what do you mean? Let me explain!

We serve an omnipotent (unlimited power) omniscient (knows everything) omnipresent (present everywhere) God, whose ways are higher than our ways, and whose thoughts are higher than our thoughts.

His names declare his nature and character as El Elyon (Most High God) and El Shaddai (God Almighty).

The Apostle Paul tells us in scripture:

Rom 11:33-36 AKJV 33
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God!  how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
34 For who has known the mind of the Lord? or who has been his counselor?
35 Or who has first given to him, and it shall be recompensed to him again?
36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory forever. Amen

The Apostle Paul said his ways are past finding out! This is an interesting statement, because God has revealed many things about heaven and earth and who he is, but he has not revealed all things!

No matter how theological, educated, smart or intelligent we are, there are some things we don’t understand about the supernatural intelligent ways of Yahweh God.

This is why we must always seek God first in all things that pertain to life and godliness.

Why? Because if God is the creator of all things, the giver of all good things, and the source of our strength, then it would be wise to seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, so that all things that pertain to life can be added unto us.

The problem with human beings today is that since we have expanded in education, skills and knowledge, and we have obtained the higher degrees of earthly learning in education, science, music, and the arts, common sense has become uncommon, and we often become conceited or prideful.

This is a big mistake! The wise man or woman will always remain humble in all things, giving God the glory for all things, including achievements, accomplishments, attainments, and accolades, and even atta-boys!

The Bible says in Daniel 12:4, that in the time of the end, that many will run to and from, and knowledge will increase.

We are in that time. But a wise man or woman, will always remain humble and acknowledge God in all things.

Why? Because he is the giver of all good things, including wisdom knowledge, understanding, education and information.

The Prophet Hosea said in Hosea 4:6, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you shall be no priest to me: seeing you have forgotten the law of your God, I will also forget your children.”

What knowledge did the Old Testament Priests and folks reject? They rejected the law of God!

What was in the law of God? It was the complete Word of God, and God’s ways of doing things, which gives us the knowledge of Almighty God.

In Matthew chapter 7, we find a verse of scripture that is quite terrifying.

Matthew 7:21-23

Mat 7:21 Not everyone that says unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. 
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works? 
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity or lawlessness. 

The Word: “knowledge” means to know. An expanded definition means: facts, information, and skills acquired by a person through experience or education.

Wouldn’t it be a travesty to do a bunch of religious things in the name of God, and God not know you?

The highest knowledge is the knowledge of God or to know God!

The Bible says that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

Take heed what you hear and how you hear! Because everything you hear, may not be from God, but from another source.

The scripture tells us in Revelation 2:29, “He that has an ear, let him hear what Spirit says to the churches.”

Hearing is one way in which we learn. The question is what are you hearing?

The Apostle Paul tells us in:

Rom 10:14-16 AKJV
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, how beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah said, Lord, who has believed our report?

The hearing of sound doctrine, teaching and preaching is an anomaly today. There are many voices today speaking via social media, news outlets, and pulpits.

But it is the sound doctrine of the Gospel of the Kingdom and of our Lord Jesus Christ that gives us wisdom and knowledge for life in these last days.

How so, you may ask? Well, God is our source, and everything is a resource!

God is the source of life, wisdom, knowledge, and understanding.

This is why the Bible tells us in the book of Wisdom, Proverbs 3:5-8:

Prov 3:5-8 AKJV
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding.
6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.
7 Be not wise in your own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
8 It shall be health to your navel, and marrow to your bones.

As we progress throughout the year, even in this very month, the Lord said to draw near to God, and he will draw near to you.

Lean not to your own understanding, but in all your ways according to scripture, acknowledge Him, and he will direct your paths!

God bless, Pastor Quinn

Dan 6:1 It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom an hundred and twenty princes, which should be over the whole kingdom;

Dan 6:2 And over these three presidents; of whom Daniel was first: that the princes might give accounts unto them, and the king should have no damage.

Dan 6:3 Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm.

Dan 6:4 Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find no occasion nor fault; forasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.

Daniel is an excellent example of excellence and stewardship. To be a good steward in Christ one must be faithful, focused and fruitful and value the spirit of excellence. 

Daniel had the spirit of excellence in all things and in every capacity.  Here are some of his attributes: 

Excellence- The Bible says that Daniel had an excellent spirit. Which means everything he did, he did it to the best of his ability!

Faithfulness- When you develop the ability to serve faithfully, as Daniel did, you will discover that God will promote and elevate you. This is where the shift happens.

Humility – Daniel was humble and served as unto the Lord in all that he did. All great leaders are humble.

His humility and doing all things in excellence unto the Lord gave way to good stewardship, which  requires a great deal of faithfulness and responsibility.

Stewardship- Daniel was a Hebrew in Babylon (modern day Iraq)  and Persia (modern day Iran) and they wanted to set him over the whole realm because of his faithfulness and good stewardship! 

We must remember that faithfulness will always lead to good stewardship, and good stewardship gives way to greater levels of leadership. 

Trustworthy – Daniel was trusted so much they promoted him and wanted to set him over the whole realm.  Paul said in “2 Tim 2:2  And the things that you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”   

WE cannot and must not give opportunities to unfaithful people.  Because it is unbiblical! Trusting God is only half of it. The real issue is:

Can God trust us? Daniel didn’t complain or make excuses. He served faithfully and did his job in a spirit of excellence, and he was rewarded!

Daniel didn’t seek after promotion, it happened naturally because he served with excellence and valued stewardship!

A spirit of excellence means paying meticulous attention to detail in every assignment and ensuring the final product represents God in a way that brings Him glory.

Today, we must recognize that we must be good stewards of the opportunities that God gives us to lead His people. 

If we are not faithful on one level, God will not give us opportunities at higher levels of service! 

In conclusion, we must be convinced that the habits and patterns we develop in excellence, faithfulness and stewardship will be the deciding factor in all the great things that God does in our lives!

Heb 11:30 KJ2000 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were encircled seven days.

Jos 6:16 KJ2000 And it came to pass at the seventh time, when the priests blew with the trumpets, Joshua said unto the people, Shout; for the LORD has given you the city.

In this season, tear down any walls in your life that would hinder you.

Walls can serve three purposes.

1. To protect us.
2. Keep the enemy out.
3. They can keep us walled in.

As we move forward this year.
Tear down any walls that would hem you in and keep you from achieving your goals, dreams, and visions!

Tear down every wall that has hindered you. Financial walls, sickness walls, demonic walls, worldly walls, walls of fear, personal and people walls, or whatever walls have been holding you back from breakthrough and blessing in your life!

Like Joshua and the children of Israel at the walls of Jericho, by faith, SHOUT unto God with a voice of triumph!!!!! And tear down every wall in Jesus name!!

God bless! Pastor Quinn

Have you ever cried out to the Lord in prayer, because you needed God to move on your behalf through divine intervention?

Many times we pray and we ask, seek and knock according to scripture. But I have also found in scripture when David and others cried out to the Lord in prayer, God heard thier cries and moved speedily on thier behalf!

Listen to what the scripture says!

Psalm 3:4  I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

Psalm 18:6  In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried out to my God; He heard my voice from His temple, And my cry came before Him, even to His ears.

Psalm 30:2  O LORD my God, I cried out to You, and You healed me.

Psalm 30:8  I cried out to You, O LORD; and to the LORD I made supplication:

Psalm 31:22  For I said in my haste, “I am cut off from before Your eyes”; Nevertheless You heard the voice of my supplications When I cried out to You.

Psalm 34:6  This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

Psalm 88:13  But to You I have cried out, O LORD, and in the morning my prayer comes before You.

Psa 107:6  Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He delivered them out of their distresses. 

Psalm 107:13  Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

Psalm 130:1  A Song of degrees. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD

Psalm 130:2  Lord, hear my voice: let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

In Luke chapter 18, the Bible tells us of a widow who needed justice against her adversary.

So, she went to an unjust judge to get justice, and eventually gave her what she needed because of her persistence!

Then Jesus said something so profound at the end of the parable story. Listen!

Luk 18:7  And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? 
Luk 18:8  I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of man comes, shall he find faith on the earth? 

Do you need breakthrough, blessing and divine intervention in a situation you are in? Do you need God to move on behalf of your family, finances, marriage, children or ministry?

Remember what the scripture says about crying out to the Lord, and cry out to him to see a mighty move on your behalf!

God bless!

1. Trust God in all things. God will never let you down! 😊
2. Study to be quiet. Be slow to speak and quick to listen. Death and life are in the power of the tongue.
3. Hard work equals success. The only place “success” comes before “work” is in the dictionary. 😉
4. Walk in love. It’s the greatest commandment according to scripture. There is no greater spiritual virtue!
5. Healing is a slow process but eventually it comes. Keep the faith.
6. Yesterday’s pains are tomorrow’s victories if you endure and overcome.
7. Never give up. Quitters never win. Winners never quit
8. Life is full of surprises. Always hope for the best but prepare for the worse. Sometimes life just happens!
9. Remember that God is good all the time. Put him first in all things, and he will put you first in all things.
10. Stay humble. Pride goes before a fall. But humility will always lift you up.

God bless and have a great day!

Heb 13:20 Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
Heb 13:21 make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

Although we have Shepherds and Pastors in the earth realm whom we admire and love. There is one Shepherd who is above all shepherds and that is our LORD Jesus Christ. 

The Bible calls him the Great Shepherd of the sheep. This is why David said in Psalm 23:

Psa 23:1  A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. 
Psa 23:2  He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. 
Psa 23:3  He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. 

In other words, the LORD supplies all my needs. He leads me, guides me, restores me, protects me and he keeps me!

Jeremiah said that God would do the following:

Jer 3:15  And I will give you shepherds (Pastors) according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding. 

So, a shepherd who has the heart of God will tend and lead the sheep (God’s people) with knowledge and understanding. This is how we know they are shepherds according to God’s heart!

Another characteristic of a shepherd or Pastor after God’s heart is one who has compassion for the sheep.

The Bible also says in Mat 9:36  But when He (Jesus) saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. 

When Jesus saw the multitudes of people, the scripture says he was moved with compassion, because they were like sheep without a shepherd.

A good shepherd has compassion and is always willing to bring lost sheep into the fold!

There are a lot of shepherds in the world today, but are they according to God’s heart?

Do they serve and lead with the compassion of God, the love of God, and do they feed God’s sheep with knowledge and understanding? 

The Bible tells us the following about shepherds:

Act 20:28  Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.

Act 20:29  For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 

God has given shepherds in the earth realm the responsibility of taking care of his flock and the church, which is truly a big responsibility!

Paul even said that when he departs, there will be wolves who will come in, who are false shepherds, hirelings, greedy for gain, who will not spare the flock, but will take advantage of them.

This is why just like anything else in the world, there are good shepherds and bad shepherds.

Never judge all shepherds and churches because of a bad experience in a church or with a shepherd or Pastor~!

Peter tells us:

1Pe 5:2  Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly; 
1Pe 5:3  nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock; 
1Pe 5:4  and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away. 

So, we understand that the sheep belong to God. That anyone who is shepherding God’s people are only little shepherds who are taking care of the Great Shepherd’s (Jesus) sheep. Because the church and the sheep belong to God!

Paul tells us the following about who owns the church:

Col 1:17  And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. 
Col 1:18  And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. 

Shepherd’s are not called to lead the church for gain. If anyone leads the church specifically for gain, he is a hireling. 

A hireling is a hired hand who does the work of the ministry for prestige, money or gain only. Jesus said this about a good shepherd and a hireling:

Joh 10:11  “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. 
Joh 10:12  But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them. 
Joh 10:13  The hireling flees because he is a hireling and does not care about the sheep. 
Joh 10:14  I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own. 

God will always take care of his shepherds, because the worker is worth his wages, but we do not do it for gain, riches or fame.

It is important to note that God’s shepherds will have the heart of Christ, and will lead like Christ!

They will not lord over God’s people, but will lead by example with love.

The Bible then says, when the Chief Shepherd (Jesus) appears, we will receive a crown of glory that does not fade away. Why? Because we have done a good job in shepherding God’s sheep!

Saints, remember that Jesus Christ is the Good Shepherd, Great Shepherd and Chief Shepherd!

There is none greater than him! And we know those that have the heart of God because they will lead like Christ, and have the heart of Christ, who is the Good, Great and Chief Shepherd!

God Bless!

2 Cor 10:3  For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 
2 Cor 10:4  For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds. 

What is 3P Victory?

Three “P” victory stands for prayer, prophecy, praise and victory!

As I searched the scriptures, I found that there are three things that enabled Saints to get the victory in the Bible? They are Prayer, Prophecy and Praise!

Let me explain. Although we are empowered by the Holy Spirit in (Acts 1:8), although faith is important throughout scripture in the believer’s life, (2 Cor 5:7) and we overcome by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of our testimony (Rev 12 :11).

It is the Saints reliance on the God given virtues of prayer, prophecy and praise that enables us to get the victory!

The Bible says in 2 Cor 10:4, that the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty in God to the pulling down of strongholds!

Prayer, Prophecy and Praise are not carnal or fleshly weapons. They are spiritual virtues and spiritual weapons given to us by (God) Elohim to get the victory in the earth realm. Let me explain!

Think about it, these weapons of warfare have been around for thousands of years where we find Jesus, Moses, Joshua, David, Daniel, Jehoshaphat, Jabez, Paul, Peter, the Apostles and many more saints in scripture utilizing them!

Below are scriptures for reference, and this list is not inclusive! There are many more scriptures too numerous to list!

Scriptures for prayer are:

Job 22:27, Matt 26:39-41, Luke 11:1-13, Luke 18:1, 1 Thess 5:17, and Eph 6:18.

Scriptures for prophecy are:

Job 22:28, Prov 18:20-21, Rom 12:6, 1 Cor 12:8-10, 2 Cor 4:13, and Eph 4:11.

Scriptures for praise are:

2 Chron 5:13-14, 2 Chron 20:21-22, Psalm 34:1, Psalm 8:2, Psalm 100:4, Psalm 150:6, Matt 21:16, and Heb 13:15.

These are just a few scriptures that confirm the power of prayer, prophecy and praise.

As a child of God, sons and daughters in the Lord, understand that God wants you to get the victory over every circumstance that comes your way.

The Bible says in Ephesians 3:20:

Eph 3:20 AKJV says, “Now unto him that is able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.”

Did you hear that? God is able to do it, but there is a power that works within you!

Understand that whatever comes your way or happens in this world. You are not powerless!

The Bible says in Ecclesiastes 4:12, that a threefold cord is not easily broken.

God has given us three powerful spiritual weapons to get the victory over every circumstance in life, and in the world through faith when we utilize them!

So, whatever you are going through in trials, tribulations, and troubles, remember 3P Victory in Jesus (Yeshua) Christ our Lord!

For additional scriptures on the power of prayer, prophecy and praise read 2 Chron 20:1-30.

Psalm 46:10  Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. 

The Word of the LORD to encourage you as you prepare for 2024 is: “Be still and know that I am God!”

What does this mean? It means to quiet your spirit and your activity to get into the presence of God to hear his voice. This is so important, because today we live in a microwave society. 

Everything is quick fast and in a hurry. We have no time to do anything most of the time. Can I get a witness? We are moving so fast, that sometimes we cannot slow down!

Also, because of social media, there are so many distractions with updates and everything going on around us and in the world, it is almost impossible to hear from the LORD.

We have Facebook, Threads, Instagram, TikTok, Youtube, Sports, Movies and everyone wants you to hear what they have to say, and what you ought to do!

With all these distractions, truth be told, there is no way we can truly from God! The Bible tells us something profound all throughout the book of Revelation chapters 2 and 3:

Rev 2:7  He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches…”  In other words, God said,” I am speaking but are you hearing?”

God is speaking and there are many ways that God can speak to us.

1. Through the preaching and teaching of the Word of God or scripture.
2. Through a Prophet of the LORD, or through a prophetic Word given by God through a person.
3. By the Holy Spirit or through an angel of the LORD.
4. Directly to you, speaking to your heart, mind and spirit.
5. Through situations and circumstances to get your attention.

There are many ways for God to speak to you, but if you truly want to hear from heaven and get divine direction for your life, your future, your family, ministry and other areas of your life, get still in the presence of God!

Someone may be saying, how do I do that Pastor? Well, it means making time to get alone with God for a time (short or long) to meditate and hear. It means to quiet your spirit.

It means getting into the presence of God to pray. It means taking the time to read scripture or a devotional. It means taking time for yourself and not everyone else.

It means turning off the phone for a moment. It means prioritizing God and not social media.

It means telling the kids to go sit down (LOL) and read a book, or watch TV while you get alone with God. (if possible) 

The scripture tells us:

Psalm 46:10  Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. 

Did you get that? Be still and KNOW that I am God. God can be found and known in the stillness, not in your busy-ness! Sometimes people think that because of their busy-ness in God, that God is pleased. Sometimes he is, sometimes he isn’t.

in the scripture, 1 Kings chapter 18, the Prophet Elijah had just killed over 800 false prophets whom the people were looking up to…it was dramatic, full of action and fire! Through the miraculous power of God, God showed himself to be the ONE true God of Israel!

1Ki 18:38  Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 
1Ki 18:39  And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God. 

So then, Elijah gets word that Jezebel wants to kill him. He is scared and runs for his life. He needs to hear from God. So, he goes into a cave and the LORD speaks to him. Check this out!

1Kings 19:9  And there he went into a cave, and spent the night in that place; and behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and He said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” 

1Kings 19:10  So he said, “I have been very zealous for the LORD God of hosts; for the children of Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life.”

Here it is.. Don’t miss this!

1Kings 19:11  Then He said, “Go out, and stand on the mountain before the LORD.” And behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rocks in pieces before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind; and after the wind an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake; 

1Kings 19:12  and after the earthquake a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire; and after the fire a still small voice. 

Elijah needed to hear from God, but God was not in the strong wind, rocks and mountains. God was not in the earthquake or fire, but he SPOKE to Elijah in a still small voice!

Did you hear that? Sometimes we think God is always in the spectacular, the loudness, the boom, bang, thunder and lighting! And guess what? Sometimes he is! Sometimes he isn’t! But more importantly, God wants to speak to you in a way you can understand.

He spoke to Elijah in a still small voice! Can you imagine that? The Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the End, the Most High God, The God of heaven and earth…spoke in a still small voice! Beloved…the scripture says, “BE STILL!”

How many of us can be still and just rest in God for a few moments? Not many people can do it without moving, checking the phone, and being uncomfortable.

God wants to speak to your heart, and the only way is to take time and “BE STILL” and know that he is GOD! For he will be exalted above the nations and the earth!

As we prepare to go into 2024 in which there will be victories, trials, tribulations, deaths, blessings and so many things, and no man knows the future except God reveal it.

So, seek the face of God and not a man, woman, Google or a psychic! Spend precious moments in his presence to discern the present time, to get divine direction and clarity for all things that pertain to the church, your life, family and future!

God Bless!

In Luke chapter 18, the Lord tells a story (parable) about the importance of praying always and not to faint.

Luk 18:1 And he spoke a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint.

But deep in this story is another revelation we cannot miss. That the LORD is a Righteous Judge who will grant us justice through our persistent prayer and faith.

There are two people in the story of Luke chapter 18. A widow woman who needed justice from her adversary, and a judge who did not fear God nor man.

Read and listen to the scripture!

Luke 18:2-3

² Saying, There was in a city a judge, who feared not God, neither regarded man: ³ And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, avenge me of my adversary.

The Bible says that this woman wanted justice against her adversary, and the judge would not give her the verdict of justice that she needed.

But she kept going to the judge persistently, and would not relent or give up, and eventually the judge gave her what she needed!

Read Luke 18:4-5

⁴ And he would not for awhile: but afterward he said within himself, though I fear not God, nor regard man; ⁵ Yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she wearies me.

The Bible says that the judge didn’t fear God or man, but eventually gave in, and gave her justice because of her persistence!

Then the Lord shifts the story to give us some revelation.

Read Luke 18:6-8

⁶ And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge said. ⁷ And shall not God avenge his own elect, who cry day and night unto him, though he bears long with them? ⁸ I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man comes, shall he find faith on the earth?

So, through this parable, the Lord tells us that an unrighteous judge gave this widow woman justice, because of her continual coming and persistence to get justice against her adversary.

This is a powerful story and there is much more prophetic revelation in this story we cannot miss! Let me explain!

1. The widow woman could be the church, or the people of God. The church is always pictured as a bride. It is also a picture of the believers or someone who needs justice.

2. The unrighteous judge is symbolic of a human judge or man in the earth who will not give adequate justice!

3. The adversary is Satan himself. Adversary in the Greek is “antidikos” which means an opponent (in a lawsuit); specifically Satan (as the arch enemy).  

4. The righteous judge is the LORD who always administers sound judgment and justice in righteousness!

5. When we pray continously and persistently, crying out to the Lord, God will hear and grant our requests, and give us justice but we must have faith!

There is so much more revelation in this wonderful parable concerning persistence, prayer and faith, but the reality is, God is the Righteous Judge, who will always give us justice against when men will not!

As I read the news and see what is happening in the earth today. The adversary is constantly killing, stealing and destroying lives in the earth.

There is so much injustice at times that it can wear you down!

Although we have those in government who make laws, such as politicians, and those who are to uphold laws such as police and human judges, let’s be real!

Man does not always give us the justice that we need. Sometimes we get injustice, but God will always render us righteous justice!

Jesus said, I have come, that you may have life and life more abundantly.

John 10:10 says, The thief comes not, but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Regardless of what the adversary or man does, God will always render righteous justice, but we must pray and cry out to the Righteous Judge of heaven and earth! Listen to the holy scriptures!

Luk 18:7 says, And shall not God avenge his own elect, who cry day and night unto him, though he bears long with them?

The revelation of it all is: If a man who is an unrighteous judge can give a widow woman justice, how much more can God, who is the Righteous Judge give us justice!! Praise God!

Read the scripture!

Psa 7:11 KJ2000 God judges the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

Psa 50:6 KJ2000 And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself. Selah.

Psa 58:11 KJ2000 So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God who judges in the earth.

Psa 96:13 KJ2000 Before the LORD: for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

Ecc 3:17 KJ2000 I said in my heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time for every purpose and for every work.

Jer 11:20 KJ2000 But, O LORD of hosts, who judges righteously, who tests the mind and the heart, let me see your vengeance on them: for unto you have I revealed my cause.

Act 17:31 KJ2000 Because he has appointed a day, in which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he has ordained; and of this he has given assurance unto all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.

2 Tim 4:8 KJ2000 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

Rev 19:11-12 KJ2000 11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon it was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he does judge and make war. 12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

Brother, Sister, what ever you are going through and need. I want you to know that God is the Righteous Judge, and will grant you justice, and answer your prayers when you call upon his Most High Name in faith!

God bless, Pastor Quinn

1 Thessalonians 5:18, In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 

How many of us know that there is something wonderful about giving thanks and having a grateful heart!

The Apostle Paul gives us some profound wisdom in this short verse of scripture, that we should always give thanks for all things! Not just during a time of the Thanksgiving holiday, but in all things!

Why? Because God is the giver of all good things and the scripture says in James 1:17, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”

In other words, everything we have achieved, attained, and accomplished is by the grace of God!

So, we should always give thanks to the LORD! I can recall as a child, that my mom would always make sure my brothers and I, said thanks for even the small things.

She wanted to instill in us the importance of being grateful and thankful for anything that was done for us, or we received!

This is something I have never forgotten, and I truly believe that through God’s grace, blessings upon blessings are released upon us, when we give God glory and thanks for all that he has done and will do in our lives!

All throughout scripture, especially in the Psalms we see the saints giving God thanks for his goodness, grace, mercy, kindness, compassion and love that never fails! Check out these scriptures!

Psalm 92:1 A Psalm. A Song for the Sabbath Day. It is good to give thanks to the LORD, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High.
Psalm 97:12 Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous, and give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.
Psalm 105:1 Oh, give thanks to the LORD! Call upon His name; Make known His deeds among the peoples!
Psalm 106:1 Praise the LORD! Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.

What is interesting is that Paul says, “This is the will of God concerning you!” This is very interesting, but what it means is that it is God’s will that we always have a thankful heart and spirit.

We should never take for granted the goodness of God, because God created all things, and all good things came from him!

Not only that, but we should be grateful to anyone that blesses our lives, or even for kind acts of service toward us!

We should never take God’s blessings for granted and likewise, we should never take anyone’s kindness for granted!

This is something we should never forget! Regardless of whether you are six years old or sixty years old!

Because truth be told, when we think about the Thanksgiving holiday, it’s not so much about Pilgrims and Plymouth Rock, but it’s about the Rock of our Salvation, Jesus Christ, who is the giver of every good and perfect thing!

Brothers and Sisters, it is God’s will for his beloved children to be thankful, grateful and kind to one another.

During this holiday season and throughout the year, show someone grace, unconditional love, kindness, and always be thankful, even for the smallest things!

God Bless! Pastor Quinn
