Clay in the Potters hands…

Reading: Isaiah 64: ⁸And yet, O Lord, you are our Father. We are the clay, and you are the potter. We all are formed by your hand.

February 17, 2025. Today woke up, listened to the Bible, spoke to the Holy Spirit in me, heard what to wear and where to go, made breakfast and lunch, as led by the Holy Spirit. Went to the Neighborhood the Holy Spirit has been sending me here in Santo Domingo once a week, took a taxi from an app, as the Holy Spirit led and it was for the driver to know Jesus as HIS lord and savior thru the testimonies the Holy Spirit had me share, starting with mine. There is so much going on, but the Holy Spirit has me focus on sharing the Good News of Jesus and doing as HE says in each place and person. Romans 5:20-21 is a reminder:²⁰The law was brought in so that the trespass might increase. But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, ²¹so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

There are all kinds of drugs, piles of money and the police precinct is inside, but today the Holy Spirit had me pray with the police inside the precinct to let them know the Lord is seeing what they are doing and there was a teen boy in hand coughs and the Holy Spirit had me pray with them all in a circle in the precinct so the Lord’s kingdom could come and will be done in that place as it is in heaven. Jesus/ Holy Spirit. It’s like people are in a daze until they receive the Good News of Jesus by paper or out loud waking them up, so many drugs and pain, all kinds of drugs and piles of money, but the focus are the souls, as those who are meant to understand will understand. After hearing the Good News of Jesus people end up also putting Christian music, they get so hopeful, the imoact of knowing the Lord sees them and sends them people to remind them of HIS love and purpose with their lives, regardless of what they have seen, done and heard, it is powerful. Romans 10:¹¹As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”^[a] ¹²For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, ¹³for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”^[b] ¹⁴How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? ¹⁵And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”

Also have gotten to hear stories of people that go to get money for preaching the word and others who have been extorting people as they give the pamphlet, the people share a lot as the Holy Spirit moves thru us. We get to hear a lot in the street as people confess to the Holy Spirit in us, helping us understand that nothing is about us, that is all spiritual, in each situation we are vessels of the Holy Spirit, but the battle is the Holy Spirit’s. There was a man that stated today that he remembers how the day he needed $50 pesos the Holy Spirit sent me and another said how instead of asking them I give them, to which the Holy Spirit had me in tears, as HE knows how to encourage us to remember that is all for the souls, the Great Commission and that is all spiritual. Many of the people read the message out loud, many keep it on their phones, many say thank you and those who are highly possessed react in different ways or say no I don’t believe in God, but the scriptures say that it is a rejection to God not us, as nothing is about us. I cried and cried when I got back, which is the Lord’s groaning for HIS creation, but those who are meant to understand will understand.

Thanking the Lord for HIS love for HIS creation, it’s an overwhelming kind of love that comes out of us thru the Holy Spirit and they feel it, there is so much respect and reverence for the Holy Spirit in us in the streets, they will feel from the Lord to assign people to “protect us” which the Holy Spirit has let me hear the soldiers that are with me and how one of us is worth a thousand. It is the kind of Christianity the Lord wants everyone to live, as it says in the word that we would do greater things than HE, we just have to believe. It comes at a price not everyone is willing to pay to answer the Great Commission and be obedient. That is what the Lord has told me, many want the benefits without the sacrifice, so they stay being expectations, but HE always reminds me that those who need to understand will understand, which gives a lot of hope from HIM and then to live those miracles and wonders, is like being pregnant for 9 months going thru pain and sleepless nights and then you see the little baby face and you forget all that happened before, that is how it is when we see the miracles and wonders, it makes it all worth it, plus looking forward to the New Heaven and the New earth, as it is described in Revelations 21: Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”^[a] for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. ²I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. ³And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ⁴‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’^[b] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” ⁵He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” ⁶He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. ⁷Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. ⁸But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.”

The New Jerusalem, the Bride of the Lamb

⁹One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.” ¹⁰And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. ¹¹It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. ¹²It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel. ¹³There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south and three on the west. ¹⁴The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

¹⁵The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city, its gates and its walls. ¹⁶The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia^[c] in length, and as wide and high as it is long. ¹⁷The angel measured the wall using human measurement, and it was 144 cubits^[d] thick.^[e] ¹⁸The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. ¹⁹The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, ²⁰the fifth onyx, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.^[f] ²¹The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass.

²²I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. ²³The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. ²⁴The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it. ²⁵On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there. ²⁶The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. ²⁷Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life. AND: 2 Peter 3:Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. ²I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles.

³Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. ⁴They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” ⁵But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. ⁶By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. ⁷By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly. ⁸But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. ⁹The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. ¹⁰But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.^[a]

¹¹Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives ¹²as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming.^[b] That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. ¹³But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.

¹⁴So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. ¹⁵Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. ¹⁶He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

¹⁷Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position. ¹⁸But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.

The Bible in the Gospels(Good News of Jesus), of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John speak of all of that and that helps too, as the Holy Spirit reminds us of those scriptures that HE went thru and what we will go thru for the souls. Matthew 16: ²⁴Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. ²⁵If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it. ²⁶And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul?^[a] Is anything worth more than your soul?

The 32 year old son where the Holy Spirit has me is also being challenged to do things around the house, as he has been in his room with everything being done for him. When people are possessed they can be very manipulative to stay comfortable and not leave the body they are using, but the Lord uses us as Apostles to challenge the comfort so that the principalities can be exposed and people could repent and come to Jesus. The flesh likes to be comfortable too, but the Lord reminds us thru HIS people that He corrects those HE loves in Hebrews 12: Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted. ⁴In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. ⁵And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor be weary when reproved by him. ⁶For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.”

⁷It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? ⁸If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. ⁹Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live? ¹⁰For they disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness. ¹¹For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

The mother where the Lord has me called me fanatic the other day and the Holy Spirit had us listen to a preaching about how people say that because they are challenged by the obedience and how the Lord fights our battles that we don’t have to defend ourselves and after that she has been so calm. Jesus/ Holy Spirit. The phrase “the Lord fights our battles” appears in the Bible, and it means that God will protect and defend us from our enemies. It can be comforting to believe that God is fighting for us, especially when we feel overwhelmed or hopeless.

Bible verses:

Exodus 14:14: “The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still”
2 Chronicles 20:15: “Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed at this great horde, for the battle is not yours but God’s”

How to trust God in battle for our souls and the souls of others:

Turn your heart to the Holy Spirit.
Seek the Holy Spirit’s voice. John 10:27-28English Standard Version ²⁷My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. ²⁸I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand.
Pour out your helplessness to the Holy Spirit.
Let Holy Spirit move against your enemies, Ephesians 6:10-19.
Lay your struggle before the Holy Spirit.
Have faith in the Holy Spirit
Give thanks and keep a posture of humility and gratitude.

How to fight the Holy Spirit’s way:

Pray and ask the Holy Spirit for help

Know your enemy

Know the Holy Spirit’s Word in the Bible.

Obey God’s Word

Use God’s Word against the enemy

Read and meditate on God’s Word in the Bible.

It’s a daily surrender as we read in the Bible that if we want to be HIS followers we have to pick up our cross everyday, because what Good is it to gain the world and loose our souls and the Lord when HE was here as Jesus sometimes did not even have a place to lay his head. If there is someone that can relate to all of our struggles and what we go thru for the Great Commission is HIM. It’s a killing of the flesh everyday as the flesh goes against everything the Holy Spirit wants and needs us to do. But God is faithful and reminds us and keeps us going, this is all in the Bible and the Book of Acts. It’s not easy but it will all be worth it in the New Heaven and the New Earth. I always tell the Lord at the end of all of this I just want to meet Moses and Paul as I can relate a lot with them with the Israelites and the things they went thru with people and be in Lord’s presence for ever, in Jesus name.

Thankful for those who have been praying for both my daughter and I, in Jesus name, as we read in John 17, that the Lord prays for us. Also for those who have been of monetary support for this Great Commission. All for the souls. John 17: When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, ²since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. ³And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. ⁴I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. ⁵And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.

⁶“I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. ⁷Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you. ⁸For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me. ⁹I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours. ¹⁰All mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them. ¹¹And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. ¹²While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. ¹³But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves. ¹⁴I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ¹⁵I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.^[a] ¹⁶They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. ¹⁷Sanctify them^[b] in the truth; your word is truth. ¹⁸As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. ¹⁹And for their sake I consecrate myself,^[c] that they also may be sanctified^[d] in truth.

²⁰“I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, ²¹that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. ²²The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, ²³I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. ²⁴Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world. ²⁵O righteous Father, even though the world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. ²⁶I made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.”
