Why Living Under Deceptions?

June 27, 2011

One of the deception that Satan did on earth was to let men believe that they are Gods Genesis 3 vs. 5; the serpent said “Ye shall be like Gods”. So he even consider himself to be a God because he knows the difference between good and evil. But in the eyes of the Creator Satan is not a God but an evil spiritual being.

Jesus our Savior characterized Satan has a roaring lion seeking who he can devour. Which simple means Satan tell himself that he alone not going to hell and so he uses deception to prevent others from seeing the True and Living God.

Deception Regarding Blood

Now Satan knows that blood is sacred unto God and because of this he uses Cain to kill Abel his brother. God said to Cain “the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground”, Genesis 4 vs. 10. In scriptures following one will see the sacred of what blood means to our Heavenly and Holy Father. It was after the spreading of blood upon the door post of the children of Israel they were saved from the destruction that went upon the firstborn of the Egyptians. Genesis 12.

In the wilderness they were given the Law of Moses and the instruction from God was that the offer of Blood Sacrifice should not be done with leavened bread (i.e. bread with yeast) Genesis 23 vs. 18. The crucifixion of Jesus Christ showed us the Holiness that blood represents. Now the deception that the devil uses is to instill in human a murderous nature (hatred) that is not of God.

He also uses reknown scientists to invent AIDS inside the Lab which is slowly killing off God’s creation. Then associating this virus/disease with the lady in the bible who had an issue of blood. This lady has an overflowing of blood inside of her. It was not a blood that was tainted by man made virus/disease and it was because of her faith she was healed.

Deception Regarding Marriage

Marriage is a holy symbol which represents Jesus  and the church Genesis 3 vs. 15 and Revelations 12. Our Heavenly Father know that in order to multiply (Humanly)  one has to be sexually active so His instruction was take a woman and call her your wife. Straight and simple we have to be married before we start having sexual interaction with each other. Satan comes with his deception of Sexually Sins whereby everything inside the world is being sold or advertised with SEX. So he spread this sexual immortality throughout the world after his invention of  AIDS. Scriptures that speaks about sexually immortalities 1 Corinthians 6 vs. 12-20, Eph 5 vs. 3.

After doing this, he blinded the church members who are living inside both worlds to believe that HIV/AIDS is a consequences from God because of sins the individual committed. But if these church followers were indeed followers of Jesus then they will know that the Father and Son are compassionate and loving. Genesis 3 vs. 21, John 17 and 1 Corinthians 13 vs. 4-7.

Advice to the Sheep of Jesus

Has a sheep let us open our eyes to the deception of the devil and see Humans has our Heavenly and Holy Father Jehovah creation. Show love always because it was LOVE that brought Jesus inside of this world and it was love that makes Him obedient to the Holy Father. This love is what cause Him to die for all of us so that through faith we can have eternal life.

For Persons Diagnosed with  HIV and living with AIDS

HIV is a Spiritual sickness and I would like to encourage persons before taking medication to make sure that it is below the requirement of 350 on your first CD4 results. This requirement means that you have AIDS and not HIV.

Those who are living with AIDS remember that Jesus love you just has how the Father love Him. There is nothing impossible with our Heavenly Father, believe in His son Jesus  learn to trust and walk in obedience then all shall be well with you. All the miracles that Jesus performed while on earth is still happening but it is through your beliefs and faith you shall receive.

May our Master and Savior Jesus grant you healing for the mind, body and soul.

Hugs and blessings

Joy and Peace

December 15, 2010

Jesus Christ birth happened for us to have everlasting Joy and Peace. Our true and living God looked upon the earth and saw that we need a comforter. He gave us Jesus Christ.

Oppression was rampant in the world and darkness prevailed instead of Light. Being the compassionate Father, the God of this earth looked beyond our iniquities, and our wonderful Lord and Savior was born. Now we have the opportunity to have this Comforter inside of our lives; not only during the Christmas Season but every day.

To receive the Joy of our Strength and the Peace that passeth all understanding, we have to accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior by walking in obedience. Let us not only celebrate His birth, but let us reflect on what His birth means to us.

Oppression is everywhere, but the Comforter is here waiting to live inside of you. Let us seek to have a rejoicing Spirit everyday, no matter what is happening inside of our lives. The God of this earth will provide and protect us, when we walk in obedience to Jesus Christ His beloved Son.

My brethren let us look towards 2011 with a renew Spirit of Hope, Joy, Love and Peace. Have a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year. May the Will of our Heavenly Father be manifested inside of your lives.

Hugs and blessings

Jesus Christ YOKE

September 7, 2010

Come to me all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.  Take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Matthew 11:28-30

The fellowship that I am a member of had Youth Convention with the theme “My Yoke is Easy”. The first speaker spoke about a yoke which is burdensome and gave the impression has if this is what Jesus Christ was saying to us. Now during the service it dawn on me that the whole teaching of Jesus Christ is so easy but still humans goes around teaching the wrong thing.

In this verse Jesus already established that we are burden and wearisome, so He said come I will give you rest. Rest to me means cease from what I am going through.  Now the yoke that Jesus is telling us to take upon us mean “His union” which is the baptism Gal 3 vs 27. For us to experience this easy and light burden life we have to walk the way of obedience which means submitting to God through Jesus Christ. To work in obedience we have to see Jesus has who He was here on earth, a Human Being representing His father.

The life of Jesus Christ here on earth was not an easy one has how some of us are lead to believe. Jesus was a human being full blooded with a Kingdom lying on His head 2 Samuel 7 vs 12-16.  Jesus overcame the burden yoke (disobedience) Genesis 3 vs 16-19 and invites us to join Him in the Freedom yoke Matt 11 vs 28-30 (obedience).

Learning from Jesus by reading the Bible will enable us a light burden because Jesus already showed us, how to overcome the heavy burden and weariness that will come our way through Trials and Temptations, Luke 22 vs 39-45,  4 vs 1-13. Following the life of Jesus Christ will give us not only blessings but a light and burden free life. There is one thing I have learned is that in walking in obedience I have to be childlike. So I emptied myself of all that I had known before and allow the Holy Spirit to teach me.

Obedience is the key to receive the Freedom that Jesus Christ our Savior has offered us; it is free and well rewarding.  May God continue to bless and prosper you.

Hugs and blessings

Faith, Trust and Fasting

June 25, 2010

Have you ever felt frustrated not knowing what to do or where to turn?

I was rebaptized in January and I started to believe that this was it. That my prayers are being answered and so all is well. I remembered attending church one Sunday and my bishop told me that my trust and faith in God was weak and that I need to start developing this. My answer to him was that he doesn’t know how far the Lord has taken me from and that he doesn’t know me. Looking back I cannot believe how stupid I was and how full of myself I am at the time. Lol

Between January-March I spend my time continuing to live the life I was used to spending all my time here on the internet and worrying about a long distance relationship I had. In March my laptop started giving up on me. It was on my birthday April 15, I declared that am 34yrs old and so my life begins now.

Building of my Faith and Trust

All this time I thought that I trusted the Lord and that my faith is in abundance but now I know differently. A cheque was outstanding for me, every time I called for it I was told that I will be getting it soon. One day I became frustrated and I said “God let thy will be done where this cheque is concern” couple weeks later the still quiet voice of the Holy Spirit says “Call about the Cheque” and when I did, I received it two days later. I started rejoicing but during my rejoicing I became sick. I said I know this is an affliction instead of giving up I started looking at my Christian life.

In the month of May I was able to purchased a refurbished desktop and paid an outstanding phone bill that my father ignored without telling me. I was able to eat food after earnestly praying to God. This month allowed me to see my Heavenly Father and the Savior of my soul Jesus Christ.

Fasting

June came and I started to be more mindful of my Christian walk but then a trial came up which having me crying for 3 days. I couldn’t take it any more and so when I went to devotion at the office where I recommitted to Christ I told my mentors Pastor Jackie and Cherryl what was happening to me. Then I was told to fast for seven days.

I have never fasted in my life. So the next day I unplug the computer tidy my room, have a bath and reached for my bible. Those seven days has opened my eyes to who my Heavenly Father was, what He wants of me, whose child I am and what it means to be obedient. Then I realized that the Holy Spirit was always inside of me since the age of 8 when I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, but I was too disobedient and so I went into captivity. Yes sin to me is captivity which caused me to feel hurt and pain.

Now am rejoicing in the Lord because I now surrender all to Him. I know that trials and temptation will be coming my way, but I also know that Jesus Christ is there to help me along; instead of my usual worrying I will just use a scripture or a song to comfort my soul, knowing that my Lord is right there and He will take me through. Now I know what Christians always talked about being saved after baptism. But to me it is not saved but change.

I now understand what the word of God says that we can never be in the presence of God and still be the same. Now I feel like Moses when he went up to Mount Sinai and came back down with his face well shone that not even the children of Israel wanted to look at him. I feel like a new person with a heart that has never seen scar and hurt.

I am thankful today that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ didn’t give up on me. That He is a patient Lord.

So my friends don’t give up on yourself no matter what you are going through. Reach for your bible and pray sincerely Jesus Christ our Lord is there waiting to give you comfort through the Holy Spirit.

Continue to be bless, hugs and love

This Is What I Call Determination

May 8, 2010

I came across this article on Naijipals.com about a fellow female who is determine  to succeed in life. She is unable to finance her college tuition and so she did the unthinkable.

She learned how to drive a Keke. A Keke is a public transportation in Nigeria. While reading this article my heart swelled with pride knowing that this young lady is determine to be someone in life so she went the non traditional route.

http://www.naijapals.com/modules/naijapals/nigeria?topic=36727.0

Our Heavenly Father Jehovah told us that He will take care of us. Jesus Christ told us in His words that we should seek and we will find, knock and the door shall be open to us, ask and it shall be given.

How many of us in our situation sit down and cried in our miseries instead of venturing out. I challenge you today to be like this Nigerian do the non traditional to gain success and remember in everything place our Heavenly Father at the Head through the blood of Jesus Christ and He will pave the way for you.

All is well when we learn to depend on the Trinity. Three different Heavenly Spirit working in one accord.

Hugs and blessings

God Work in Mysterious Ways!

April 7, 2010

Today was my HIV doctor’s appointment  and while at the clinic waiting one of my former employee  called me, her message was  “Kerry don’t worry, I know that you love to worry.” Two hours later  my doctor showed me that my CD4 count has fallen from 650 to 450. I lost 200 points in no time. He said medication for you and I said Doctor NO. He said ok and suggested that we do another one. He did his regular test and said your chest is healthy but you have to be careful because of this fall in your CD4 the lower it is the more demential it is for you.

I sat there asking him what I should do to boost my CD4. He answered by telling me to eat right and exercise. Although I already know that this was the answer I still asked because the worrying  as started. I also faced the fact then and there that I have to start eating properly that I wasn’t doing.  His next response was you are now due to do another Viral Load test. So he gave me the papers to do another CD4 and Viral Load. The result I got today was the test I did in December 2009, at the time I re-did a HIV Positive test which confirmed that am indeed HIV Positive  (I  redone this test because there were persons in Davey’s Chatroom who told him that I wasn’t HIV positive and he has banned me without confirming it with me) .  It also confirmed that I have no  other Sexually Transmitted Disease.

Upon reaching home I went to my Facebook  writing a status update when what Sidoney said came back to me ‘Kerry don’t worry, I know that you love to worry’. At that time when she said this I never know what she was saying to me and so I started telling her that am at clinic and about my association with Eve for life. Her credit got finished before I was able to complete my sentence to her and when I called her the connection was bad. The last time I spoke with Sidoney was in 2008 but today God used her to reassure me.

Yes I begin to worry and was explaining in my Facebook Profile Status about my CD4 when those words came back to me then I saw that God is indeed there for me. My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as used His angel to tell me all is well not to worry. Now am smiling because Jesus Christ is indeed in my fight and so I have lift myself up again. Yes the devil have me for some minutes but he as lost out again.

Now am smiling again why should I worry when I have a Lord and Savior who died on the cross to give me life more abundantly, why worry when my Heavenly Father Jehovah, is the possessor of Heaven and Earth. Should I still worry when the Holy Spirit the comforter and teacher is there to remind me  of things that I have forgotten so that I can be happy even after an hour of sadness.  I have three  different Heavenly Spirits working into one accord who love me and looking after me. So I have no need to  be in depression.

Thank you Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior, I love you with all my heart. It is indeed well when Jesus Christ is the center of our Joy.

Psalm 145 is what I leave with you.

BE BLESS!

I LOVE YOU

April 3, 2010

Have you ever consider these 3 words and understand how powerful they really are? Take five minutes of your time and ask yourself what does  ‘I Love You’ really means to me?

Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior commanded us to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. John 3:16 told us that ‘ God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whomsoever believeth in Him shall not perish but as everlasting life’. After reflecting on these words should someone be taken seriously when he/she says ‘I Love You’ to you?  But what if saying these words to someone who is battling with low Self Esteem, one who doesn’t know that God’s universal language is Love.

I enjoy watching Nollywood Movies. I see some of them being truth to life and so when they just arrive on Jamaican soil I spend a lot of money purchasing them instead of night clubbing etc. So in October of 2008 it would be naturally for me to pray for a Nigerian husband. Lol. In December of the same year I met my first Nigerian friend Amila on a HIV dating site. We started corresponding in January 2009.

Our friendship started to grow and this is when I begin to notice that at the end of our conversations he would ends with ‘I Love You’. Battling with low Self Esteem I gravitate towards these words. At this time I never know the difference between the Godly words ‘I Love You’  to the Moab (flesh) words ‘Am in Love with You’. So it was no surprise when Amila said to me let us start a long distance relationship I agreed with a warning ‘don’t break my heart’.

By this time I was slowly coming out of depression becoming more aware with the Words of God and understanding what Jesus Christ death symbolized to me. When misunderstandings started between me and Amila I started visiting Naijipals. Naijipals is a Social Networking Site for Nigerians and friends. This is where I started to become very observant in the online culture.

While participating on Naijipals I realized that saying ‘I Love You’ to a person is normal practice and if you are battling with low self esteem then you will easily fall prey to the predators using the Online Dating Sites. With this knowledge I started pushing myself to know the difference between the Godly and Moab expressions which are now being used very loosely. In doing this I recognized that no one can fall in love at first sight. This only happen after years of building and working together as a team once an interest for relationship has been developed.

My friendship with Amila he has ended which I have no regrets. I have no time to harbor regrets in life because God always know why He places persons in our lives and I have come to believe that not everyone comes to stay with us until we dies. So the work that Amila was send to do has accomplished and so his time to move on has come. I appreciate what he as done and I love him as a brother and I wish him all the best that God has in stored for him.

The death of Jesus Christ is a symbol of Love and during this festive season we should stop to pause truly reflect at what His blood symbolized to us. Are we using these words ‘I Love You’ for selfish reason or is it that we are following the advice of Jesus Christ we should love our neighbors as we ourselves.

The next time someone says ‘I love You’ to you don’t confuse it with ‘Am in Love with you’, learn to know the difference. Remember the greatest gift in life is LOVE. John 3:16

Have a happy and holy Easter Holidays.

Hugs and blessings

It’s Now Four (4) Years

February 26, 2010

I visited my doctor on Monday February 22, 2010, not my HIV Specialist but my Family Practitioner Dr. R. Dowe. I anticipated this visit because I had not been there for the past three (3) years.

As usual the waiting room was full and my waiting period was approximately one (1) hour. Sitting there I started to reflect on the day I was diagnosed then I come to realized that during this difficult period in my life he was not only my doctor but the Angel that the Lord has sent to guide me.

It is now four (4) years of my diagnosed and it is because of the brotherly advice of Dr. Dowe that I was able not to see the virus as a foe. Even though I went against his advice of not telling anyone, an advice that I am totally against I appreciate all the time he spent on searching around to gather information for us. I pray that the good Lord Jesus Christ continue to bless and strengthen his practice, enriched his life, the members of his family and all those that are impacted by him.

Being Diagnosed for 4 Years

It wasn’t an easy road, overcoming depression, learning about myself, striving to build a business and having my one on one relationship with God, through it all am thankful to still be alive and being medication free. (Yes I have a phobia and it is the HIV medication. The reason being once you are on it you cannot come off).

Eve for Life

This organization is for Women and Children living with HIV. It was founded by two powerful and wonderful women of God Mrs. Joy Crawford and Miss Patricia Watson. Their mission is to educate and empowered women who are living with HIV in Jamaica. I know that with God’s continual presence in their lives and this organization it shall be accomplish. There is more information here http://eveforlife.org.

Regrets

WOW are there any? Will I deem mentally ill if I said NO. Lol There are times when we look in our lives and see that because of disobedience we end up on the wrong tracks, but the Heavenly Father in his infinite mercy did not allow it to consumed us. So because of this outlook I said No, I have learned from my mistakes and so instead of harboring regrets I prefer to use those mistakes to strengthen me.

Nothing in life can stop us from achieving our dreams. Obstacles will arise but it is you the individual who should take the negatives and turn it into a positive. My favorite line is ‘I am positive in blood so why shouldn’t I be positive in mind.’

Shout Out

Now I cannot end this without giving a shout out to my Nigerian friends Amila, Deji, Prince,Vincent, Ambrose and Uby,   American Friend  Sandybabe .

The Love of God is within us, learn about it, practice it and your lives shall be enriched.

God bless You All

Happy New Year

January 19, 2010

I pray that all is well with you and that you have made a good New Year  Resolution. Remember that there is nothing in life which is impossible with God and he will provide for you. All we need to do is open our heart to Him and be sincere in what we ask for. The bible talked about a double minded person and so be very sure of what you need this year.

In life there will be trials but it is not the valleys we find ourselves in but the perseverance and strong will we have to be successful. Now remember that in setting goals we need to be conscious of our financial life and so preparing a budget is good. You can download a budget form at http://financiallysmartonline.com you will find it in the financial tools section.

HIV/AIDS Leadership Seminars

This seminar is now finished. I have been to 9 different areas which were sometimes nerve wrecking for me. It was the grace of God that brought me through some of them. The discrimination and stigmatizing that were displayed helped me to recognize that ignorance is the main factor for most individuals; who are uncomfortable to be around persons who are living with the disease. It always give me great pleasure knowing that at the end, they are more educated and are eager to contribute back to society with the things they have learned. As we know that ignorance is based on fear and so once armed with knowledge it makes life much easier.

My Health and Rededication

In December 2009 I went to the clinic for my regular check up and was amazed at the continued presence of the Lord in my life. My Viral Load showed a tremendous decrease that astonished both me and my doctor. Since being diagnosed in 2006, I have not been taking medication because my CD4 is still above the requirements. To see my Viral Load decreasing I know that this is God’s doing and nothing that I have been doing. Hence I still believe that miracles still happens.

Even though I was a backslider at the time I always recognized and acknowledged God’s divine presence in my life. The doors He has opened for me and so on January 10, 2010 I rededicated my life to him. I am glad that I have taken this step once again. God has carried me through so much and so my continuing work in His Kingdom is my repayment to him.

His joy, love and peace are more to me than anything else. I am glad that I never went to church the moment I was diagnosed with this disease instead I learned to build a one on one relationship with him. It gives me great pleasure in knowing that I went back to him because I see his wonderful works inside my life.

So my friends I just want to encourage you to build that one on one relationship with Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior with him nothing is impossible.

Hugs and blessings to you all.

My First Official HIV/AIDS Public Speaking

November 21, 2009

On Friday November 20, 2009 I did my first official Public Speaking at the Port Henderson Leadership Seminar. The aim of this Seminar was to educate citizens living inside the community about HIV/AIDS so that they can teach others. We started out with some ice breakers which were fun and so it helped my nervousness.

Even though I was a bit nervous I wasn’t afraid of the task at hand; but I wasn’t prepared for the level of discrimination that was present. I was discriminated before, but nothing like what I saw on display at this event.

The meeting began with a prayer and then there was the ‘HIV/AIDS Basics’ presentation. I was glad that persons were able to gain knowledge about this virus and were able to quell the myth that it was transferred from monkeys to humans. This is one of the most uninformed concepts which are being spurted about the disease.

During this period of the meeting, words like “AIDSY” and opinions such as “persons who are living with AIDS should be placed on an island by themselves” were being said. Tears welled up in my eyes. It was time for ‘Stigma and Discrimination’ where the presenter was trying her best to let the audience know that it is hurtful to stigmatized and discriminated. They still never saw what she was getting across to them.

Then when I realized that nothing that she was telling them would stop the negatives, I got up and introduced myself informing the audience that I was HIV positive. Immediately there was a silence inside the room. A man walked out from the room. Then there was the usual muttering “how comes you are positive and looking so good.” This is when I took them through the stages of my diagnosis; what I went through as well as what I did to overcome the obstacles.

After I talked for about an hour, the man who had walked from the room came back in and listened to what I was saying. I was just being myself in that room, talking about God, my love for my friend Amila and my aspiration of having triplets. (LOL) I encouraged them that having HIV/AIDS was not the end of the world, and that the important tasks for infected persons were to love themselves and still reach for their goals.

The man who had left the room earlier sent an apology to me at the end of the meeting, which I accepted. He said he was sorry to walk from the room; but he was glad that he was able to be there because he would never believe that someone living with the virus would be as happy as I was.

I am thankful to God because it was not me, but Him, that allowed me to be able to go through my presentation; so that these persons left with a positive outlook about living with HIV/AIDS. Although the gathering was a small one, if they practice what was taught then I know the door is partially open to help the fight of stigma and discrimination in Jamaica.

Remember: HIV/AIDS Stigma and Discrimination STOPS with YOU.

BLESSINGS
