Offended with God

Many have lifted the voice of accusation and shaken their fist at God because of offence. Satanic forces having marshaled together against unwitting people for the sole purpose of destroying them. Marshaled; means to gather and organize troops: to gather troops together and organize them, or gather together and organize, before embarking on a military campaign or expedition

Being offended at God is an open door and fertile ground for deception. Jesus said those who have heard the word and immediately receive it with joy are stony hearted and shallow in their convictions. Their reaction towards persecution and tribulation will show the condition of their heart. When it comes they are immediately offended and turn on God. Swinging open wide the door of their heart and start trusting in something else. Because the way this word offended is used means; To begin to distrust and desert the one whom he ought to trust and obey. An offended heart towards God begins the quest for something or someone else to put their trust in, always resulting in trouble. Consider the times we have been put out with someone and turned on them. It’s like things went from bad to worse because of the actions we take in our attempts to deal with it. As long as the offense remains there will always be a deep inward struggle towards that person. An offended heart finds it impossible to think good about the one in whom they are offended. We must guard our heart against offence and never blame God for the troubles we encounter.

      The Bare Fisted Hand of the Lord

      Every time the Lord reveals any thing to us under his sweet anointing it is a progressive revelation of Jesus Christ and his Kingdom Heart & there is just no end to the increase of God in our lives. (((He must increase we must decrease)))
      What the Lord can do to the enemy with his bare fist
      The Lord’s bare fist, which is Love and Unity at work fighting for pure faith removing all deception disguise and pretence and ill fate of the enemy!!
      Beloved
      When the enemy comes like a flood the Lord will raise a standard up against him.
      The bare fist of God’s enemies is one of those floods and the bare fist of God is the standard raised against him.
      It is on the Wise
      Vision of the Lord’s Bare Fist
      The 5-Fold ministry is the right hand of God on earth
      So I saw the Lord’s arm stretching out from heaven I mean all the way. The Lord’s sweet right hand had a black glove on it & touched me with the Kingdom question Who is this that darkens the counsel of the Lord God Most High!!! And I saw the Lord’s anger kindled and he took this glove off of his hand leaving it bare fisted. Then the lord’s hand bright and glowing. Oh Lord let’s us have your Valor to run into your bare fist and be hidden in you as invisible fire trampling over the enemy in earth as it is in Heaven.
      Our God is a consuming Fire
      Father we want to be touched by your hand only without any counsel of the Lord God most high darkened in any way
      We exalt you as our true watchman from Heaven.
      In earth as it is in heaven
      Again I felt the touch of the bare fist of the Lord His Hand is HOLY HOLY HOLY
      Let this Consuming Fire be our dwelling place in the Lord with the pure counsel Holy counsel from the Lord God Most High
      Let the Lord be greatly exalted and let us run into his Holy Name and be safe from the storm that is coming
      Think of the safety from the enemy in God’s hand and think of the power that one blow from it with perfect aim at the enemy will cause the enemy talk about the devil being casts into outer darkness I can see that for sure in the Lord’s timing
      Think about the bare fisted hand of God being on fire with his Glory touching every little one in his Kingdom with it.
      Running into the hand of the Lord God Most High
      Lets run into his bare fist together and give him ALL ALL ALL the Glory for what he has done for us to dwell with him forevermore in his presence
      Oh give the perception of your Glory father in Jesus Name
      Great Peace have those that love the Lord and nothing shall offend them
      (((Thank you Pastor for letting me share in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ))))
      We truly serve the Lord God Most High
      ((((Yahweh))))
      We run into your name Yahweh shouting Glory and Hallelujah
      ((( Hidden in Christ )))

      I have a real hard time understanding how anyone who has studied the word of God could ever be offended with him.
      At times I have been offended with my brothers and sisters in Christ or even at myself. However it was not with the spirit of man, that I was offended. I was wrong, because we are supposed to look on the spirit and not the flesh If indeed we want to follow Gods Word.
      Being offended with God is ludicrous, God is Love, how could anyone be offended with Love.
      Just knowing Gods nature would put a damper on any offense we might have.
      Of course if you do not know God as he truly is and you have picked up on the traditional teachings that say that God causes the havoc of the world, or that he killed your loved one, then I could very well understand that.
      Trusting God is the only way you could have faith in him.
      How could you passably trust a God that had no compassion. If indeed he had no compassion then he would have no Love and in that case he could not be God sense God is Love.
      So it ends up being a bunch of confusion. Which sounds like the god of this world to me.
