The Best of What You Have and the Best of Who You Are....

by El Nahtan DaSeer

GENESIS 4

Finding out what your good at, realizing who you are---whatever you produce GOD wants it first and GOD wants your best. Your sacrifices testifies as acts of worship your best declaring your heart is grateful. Yet, there are times in our lives when what we offer is unacceptable this is one of the reasons that JESUS had to die a sacrificial death because our sacrifices had not only become unacceptable they had become offensive to GOD.  In the book of Corinthians chapter 11 Paul deals with the church about unacceptable offerings hindering communion. Your offerings carry a spirit of obedience and gratitude or rebellion and defiance; often so many do things out of obligation, frustration; mad at GOD and mad at other men. GOD CLEARLY DOESNT WANT THAT!!!! That internal boiling becomes a murderous, angry spirit that results in GOD driving a person out of HIS presence, and the lost of favor. When you sometimes feel a cold shoulder from  heaven we might want to examine what you give and how you give it. The bible clearly states that GOD wants cheerful giver, a person that counts it a privilege to give back to the giver.

What We Offer is an Act of Worship...

What we offer tells a lot about our attitude of worship. Sacrifices and offerings are part of the worship experience. You can not call yourself a worshipper if you have trouble being obedient in your sacrifices and offerings. A selfish person can not worship GOD. Dereliction of Duty, abdication of responsibility, and ignoring divine command destroys your harvest, pull up every plant by it's roots and leaves your seeds as food for the birds of prey. Where their once was wheat their will now be weed, tares, and thorns. The bible clearly teaches us that a 'enemy' has done this, but you are the ENEMY of you own success. GOD WILL NEVER ACCEPT ANYTHING LESS THAN OUR BEST; NEVER CONFUSE GOD'S LONGSUFFERING PATIENCE WITH HIS NOT EVENTUALLY PUTTING YOUR FEET TO THE FIRE TO BE OBEDIENT.

Genesis 4 says that Cain was a farmer and the his brother Abel was a Shepherd. Together they had the land on lock, in other words together their was nothing that they would have lacked, except mutual respect it seems from Cain's perspective. One possessed the livestock the other the fruits and vegetables and the grapes for the wine. Are there times in your life when you lose focus on what you are doing to envy others? And that lack of focus on doing your best ultimately morphs into negative emotions and negative experience. Frustration replaces fruition as we examine GOD instead of our own selfish intentions and we falsely reason that GOD has showed someone else favoritism. 

When you find a man contending with GOD instead of obediently obeying he will take everything from you and even bury you; he is the ultimate murderer. Selfishness, jealousy, anger, frustration leads us from acts of worship to lust and vengeance. The heart and mind 'corrupted' longing for the wrong kind of acceptance, the kind that believes that can make GOD lower HIS standard for us. The kind that wants whatever we give to be enough.  WE ARE ALL REMINDED GOD'S WORLD GOD"S RULES!!!!
Today's English Version: v.7 If you had done the right thing you would be smiling right now...

Wrong choice makes unhappy lives. When you give your best your sacrifices become a acceptable act of worship that pleases GOD. And if you fail to get it right then sin will leap on you, attacking you, especially attacking your mind and then you will have to overcome it (fight for it) or it will devour you. Bad choices become a killing field or feeding ground for sin and rebellion. Finding ourselves without the thing we need, the relationships we have destroyed because we failed to do the right thing especially standing before GOD.

The Spirit of Rejection that so many carry....

When we apply the metaphysical to the CAIN mentality we find that it causes a change in attitude disappointment, turned to furious, and then to murder. He took a situation that was meant to be a blessing and turned it into a curse. Negative attitudes and emotions will derail or stop  the flow of blessings.. The mind that wants to offer what it wants and to do what it wants will always lead to it causing the flesh to break rank and go out against who it should be teaming with. It offers GOD les than it's best becoming irate at others frustrated they got it right. You would think that a farmer would be the  first to know that bad seed bad fruit, good seed good fruit---whatever you give is what you get.

May 2019

This lesson was given to me to eat before the sun arose in Pensacola on Thursday May 8th..I was battling with a deep depression because I felt like I had given a sacrifice that was not being honored. I falsely accused GOD of ignoring my sacrifice that I thought was substantial. How many people quit jobs and sit there waiting for GOD to talk to them everyday so they can record what the Spirit teaches. Yet, at the same time I had abandoned my commands and responsibilities against GOD and against my family. My acts of sacrifice and worship was unacceptable and GOD ministered that too me. OBEDIENCE IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE, DON"T GIVE ME WHAT YOU WANT ME TO HAVE GIVE ME WHAT I TOLD YOU TO GIVE...that's when I found out that my acts of worship had been given without sacrifices and offerings, which means they was not worship at all. What the hell was I thinking and what the hell was I doing

There are time that you didn't have because you wouldn't give
