OpenYourEyes1: HE basically used the physical things of this world in the old testament to demonstrate, prepare or introduce us to their spiritual similarities in the New Testament. More like HE used analogy in old testament and reveal their spiritual meaning in the new testament. And the spiritual similarities are much more effective than the physical ones.
— So why emphasize on physical war when it's spiritual war in New testment — Why emphasize on yeast when it's sin/evil — Why emphasize on physical circumcision when it's circumcision of the heart — Why emphasize on water baptism when it's spiritual baptism — Why emphasize on lamb or animal sacrifice when it's about sacrifice of JESUS and our personal sacrifices
I typically do not allow the weak to read the old testaments by themselves without guidance. Hopefully I will gradually guide them on this and others. The old testament books are good and inspired by GOD. They do not contradict the New Testment. Listen to all the words in the book and ask GOD to help you understsnd.
OpenYourEyes1: Once you're repented, avoid those worldly things that kept you in bondage, focus on things that pleases GOD like reading/listening to your Bible always, believe in JESUS, living holy life (holy life is fun believe me), pray always, trust in GOD and watch yourself grow spiritually.
When you start living this life, alot of strange things will begin to happen in your life, like visions, flashes in your mind, supernatural movement of your hands/body, GOD speaking clearly to you. It's most likely GOD doing this (that is, if you are indeed holy)
GdNews32: You need your heart to be soften so that you can believe and know GOD's Will. You can't call yourself a Christian while still going against HIS Will. You either allow the Will of GOD be done in your life or you will be doing the will of the enemy... If you do the will of the enemy you will definitely be clashing with Holy people (saints) intentionally or unintentionally. So becareful whose will you choose to do. It's dangerous to continue to live in sin in GOD's presence. If you don't know GOD's Will then ask that HIS will be done in your life continuously. And that will mean always being obedient to HIS instructions.
OpenYourEyes1: The Will of GOD is simply HIS plan and purpose for us, for this World and all things HE created. HIS plan and purpose for HIS Children and mankind in general is good. HE created everything for good but when things HE created choose the wrong path(by disobeying GOD) which is far from GOD's presence, they suffer the consequences because nothing outside of GOD presence can be good as GOD is the source of all good things. GOD also intervenes and show mercy to those at the wrong side with good things and to bring them close to HIMSELF so that they can fully enjoy the goodness of GOD but when they reject this they are accepting the punishments (curses) reserved for those at the wrong side. So, the problem with those marked for destruction is that they reject the truth and the goodness of GOD. Well, GOD created things this way on purpose... HE knows things will happen this way. And the lesson from this is for us to understand why it's important to always stick to GOD and obey HIM. It's for our own good, for all goodness you can think of...for everlasting joy, happiness, peace, riches and all good things you can think of.
Make sure to obey HIM always to remain in HIS Good Will for you
1. "If you declare with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved" — Romans 10:9 (NIV)
2. "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." — Matthew 7:21
The truth is saying JESUS is LORD carnally, without believing, obedience and doing GOD's will won't save you. You have to believe in JESUS and obey HIS teachings in order to be have eternal life or be saved.
OpenYourEyes1: To go against the commandments/law of the CREATOR(GOD) of Heaven and Earth. His Commandments is simple, Love GOD and people. If you truely love GOD, you will avoid doing things that displeases HIM, things like not believing in HIS Son JESUS. You can't please GOD if you don't believe in JESUS. If you believe in JESUS, you will keep HIS words... you have to be a born-again to be able to keep HIS words and do GOD's will always. Once you become a born-again, the Spirit of GOD will dwell in you and use you to do what pleases GOD always. So you can't please GOD by your own self/power, it's GOD that will help you do this through HIS Spirit, and through our LORD JESUS.
It's Important to note that GOD's Commandments is above human laws. HE is our CREATOR, we must be guided by his Commandments. Any law contrary to GOD's law is evil law. Only good laws are to be obeyed, GOD's law is good.
OpenYourEyes1: 1. Humble homosexual: "LORD, I have been trying my best to stop this unnatural act, but it has been hard for me. Please have mercy on me and help me stop it. I am so sorry for my sins."
2. Arrogant Homosexual: "There is nothing wrong in homosexuality. It's natural. I was born this way, or my environment/people made me gay. Why did God made me like this in the first place? Why did he let people corrupt me? I can't be the only gay person in this heterosexual community. I will turn many to homosexuals or bring them from other societies. Besides, there is money in this business."
✳ The Truth: GOD will show great mercy on the humble homosexual and heal him/her. The arrogant one will remain in his/her sin. And you know what the wages of sin is.
^^Same applies to other sinners, like maturbators, fornicators, people with bad temper, cigarette smokers, drug/alcohol addicts, etc. You have to humble yourself "always" before our CREATOR and let HIM heal you. HE will definitely answer you if you are committed in knowing HIM, reading HIS Words and obeying HIS law
"Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need,and forgive us our sins,as we have forgiven those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one." In JESUS Name, Amen.
Very Powerful prayers^ Always ask may HIS Will be done when you don't know what to ask. HIS Will is very good for us
OpenYourEyes1: "Keep their words always in your heart. Tie them around your neck. When you walk, their counsel will lead you. When you sleep, they will protect you. When you wake up, they will advise you. For their command is a lamp and their instruction a light; their corrective discipline is the way to life."—Proverbs 6:21-23
You should listen to one Audio Bible multi times a day. What I usually do before Listening: I drink lots of warm water, eat fruit/vegs, start Fasting, rest myself a bit, put on my earpiece, then go to a quiet place and listen. I keep repeating the audio after listening to the whole.
Believe while listening. Never allow doubts to keep you blind while listening. Then watch what will keep happening to you as you believe & grow.

OpenYourEyes1: "Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the house of Israel; therefore hear a word from My mouth, and give them warning from Me: When I say to the wicked, ‘You shall surely die,’ and you give him no warning, nor speak to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life, that same wicked man shall die in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at your hand. Yet, if you warn the wicked, and he does not turn from his wickedness, nor from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul. “Again, when a righteous man turns from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die; because you did not give him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; but his blood I will require at your hand. Nevertheless if you warn the righteous man that the righteous should not sin, and he does not sin, he shall surely live because he took warning; also you will have delivered your soul.”

OpenYourEyes1: This is the word of Our LORD JESUS in the book Mark:
"Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them." — Mark 11:24
This ^ works all the time if you do it the right way. Make sure what you are asking GOD for is pleasing to HIM and is according to HIS Will. Always pray for forgiveness of sins before asking.
Also make sure you always do what pleases GOD because GOD listens to the righteous more.
GdNews32: CHRIST's Will is the Will of GOD the FATHER. So, don't keep rejecting or disobeying JESUS CHRIST while thinking you are still in GOD's Will or following CHRIST.
Once you are doing GOD's Will you are following CHRIST, it's thesame things. You don't say no when HE asks you to do this or that, or go here or there, you absolutely obey even if it means abandoning that jobs that prevents you from doing HIS will. HE will always take care of you.
"Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need,and forgive us our sins,as we have forgiven those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one." In JESUS Name, Amen.
Very Powerful prayers^ Always ask may HIS Will be done when you don't know what to ask. HIS Will is very good for us
When I begged GOD for grace for the world, HE granted it and hung the burden of the World on my shoulders, that means I will be solving their problems and guiding them... The responsibilities also extend to the church, I was told to guide her and will go through what they(Heavenly BEINGS) go through trying to help this World. This responsibility is backed with Power and Authority from GOD. It's a rod/staff but it can't seen with physical eyes. The power and authority is what I use in the world to do whatever GOD wants me to do, or whatever is according to HIS Will. If you have the Power and Authority you rule the world but I just want to focus on serving, and I won't hesitate to use the authority when I need to especially in difficult times.
If you understand this post, you will understand who currently rules the world. Just make sure he/they do not find you disobeying GOD and get angry at you. You will understand that GOD has been too merciful to you.
*Also note that if you push the one with the burden of the world on his shoulders, you are indirectly harming the world and yourself. So don't let him shake even a little for your sake. If possible find ways to support him like Aaron supported Moses hand during the battle with amalekites
