Spiritual discernment.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?

Hello everyone

There is a term used in the Christian way of life as testing the spirit. It simply means trying to understand where a person is truly coming from when they are communicating with you.

There is a need to know discernment among the people who are around. For there are those who do not fear GOD. They are in a different mindset and will have a negative energy about them.

So generally there is a clash of spiritual levels of moral righteousness of faith and understanding in GOD. If any, for many nowadays have little or no respect for GOD and HIS SON JESUS.

Negativity is a distraction from your attention to GOD and JESUS. For Negativity is not in them at all. Goodness and positive things comes from them!

Peace and blessings ❤️

Numbers 12:1-16. The power of the tongue.

Hello everyone,

I do pray that you all will have a blessed day. And will find peace in knowing that we as a people are safe and sound in the word of GOD that we abide in. For the word of GOD is all truth. Those of us who do read it will find the answers to what we need for all of our circumstances.

And when we hear a man or woman of GOD, be it a Pastor, and Evangelist, or anyone else who is doing the LORDS will to convert other to JESUS we need to respect them. Pastor Stephen Darby made some good points in a sermon named “My words, my wounds” on the YouTube channel. This sermon was about the words that we speak. The words we speak are power punches when they are negative.

I would like to recommend listening to this sermon. We will all be judged by all we do and say. This sermon was good to hear for it will make us more aware of what we say. Check his channel out on you tube to hear this message.

See when we speak negative things about those who are spreading the word of GOD is not good if they are negative. We will reap what we sow. Look at Miriam in Numbers chapter 12, verses 1-16. GOD had to speak to Miriam and Aaron. For they spoke negative against Moses. And GOD heard it. Miriam suffered the curse of turning white as snow.

GOD does not like us speaking bad of each other. Not just the people of GOD. It is for us all too. We need to think first about what we say at all times. No one can control their tongue, but to tame it. Pray and repenting each day for help to get right with GOD.

Have you ever had someone say something to you that was said to you that hurt you as a child and you remember now as an adult? Or you have said something to someone you were sorry you said that. Not meaning to say it or saying it on purpose. I was not good and you do regret saying it now.

Let us pray for sins, repent, and ask for more wisdom and power to do good and not to give in the flesh we are in. We can remember the hurt more times than we can remember the compliments we get from others. And this applies to others as well, they can remember all of the negative things we say and forget the good things. The good doesn’t hurt, but the bad does, so you will remember what hurts more so.

JESUS can return at any time, and I know I want to be better at all I can do and say. I need and want to get into heaven and to see our beloved creator and HIS son JESUS eye to eye. And even if you and I do not meet here on earth we will in heaven from accepting JESUS as our savior.

Thank GOD for JESUS and to teach us the word of GOD and HIS ways!

Peace and blessings!

Hmmm. I will say JESUS

Who is the most confident person you know?

When ever I read the word of GOD and JESUS is going through something such as sleeping on the boat with the disciples and they had fear that the storm will have them to perish in it. JESUS was cool and fast asleep.

The disciples were not confident enough to see that if it were not bothering JESUS the sleep peacefully in the storm and not to worry, they should too.

Matthew 8:24

“And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.”

King James Version (KJV

There is no other person that walked the face of the earth I can say that had that kind of confidence I know of. Even if they have billions of dollars, they will lean on their own understanding and that could be with them thinking with their feeling and make a wrong judgement call. Meaning that they were not confident enough to leave well enough alone.

In my life here on this earth, I have learned that I can not get through the day without my beloved FATHER GOD and HIS SON JESUS.

I am confident with them guiding my steps and covering me where I may be on this earth.

Peace and blessings ❤️

GOD did not give us the element of fear.

Hello eveyone.,

I have had to retype this post for today. For some reason, it did not get saved as how I usually save it. Something went wrong. It is late in posting because I have had to re do it today.

What I wanted to say and encourage everyone was about the fear of the current events that is happening and not to be in fear. But to be in prayer. Theses things that are in the news and all media is mere distractions that will keep us from focusing on the LORD. And the ways of the world could be over whelming if you let it.

Prayer and trusting in GOD will allow us to understand what’s going on with proper righteous spiritual discernment that comes from GOD. HE knows all of what is going on because HE knows all that is around every turn. And the consequences that will happen to us if we take the wrong turn.

Satan will do all that he knows what to do to distract us and try to pull us away from GOD.

Don’t let this happen. Yes there are things that will happen from the warnings that are written in the Bible, such as the predictions. So, we there for the reader of the word of GOD will need to be ready. To watch, and to pray and not lean on our own understanding alone ever. Communication with the HOLY one in heaven and trusting and waiting on GOD will calm the fears you have.

For when I pray, I find peace and understanding in my situations of the current day. I have my concerns and then when I pray I will get an answer , be it yay or nay. And when it is a no, that door will shut closed and locked if GOD sees it is not right for me.

He has and does do this for me, so he will do this for you as well. Leave those fears where they come from and trust in our ever loving FATHER GOD and HIS son JESUS.

Peace and blessings!

The beautiful majestic powerful ones!

Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?

The African Elephant.

As a child I had admired them.

I took the time to Google some information about the Elephants.

“Elephants are considered to be among the most intelligent animals in the world. They have large brains, complex social structures, and exhibit many behaviors that indicate empathy and self-awareness. 

Brain size and structure 

  • Elephants have the largest brains of any land animal.
  • Their brains have a similar structure to humans, including a large cerebral cortex and hippocampus
  • Elephants have more neurons in their brains than other mammals, including humans.

Behaviors that indicate intelligence

  • Tool use: Elephants use tools to solve problems. 
  • Memory: Elephants have extraordinary memories and can remember distant water holes. 
  • Social skills: Elephants form close bonds with companions and can cooperate to solve problems. 
  • Self-awareness: Elephants recognize themselves in mirrors. 
  • Empathy: Elephants exhibit behaviors that indicate empathy, such as comforting distressed individuals and babysitting calves. 

Other behaviors 

  • Mimicking human voices
  • Recognizing companions even after long periods of separation
  • Forming coalitions to assist others in need
  • Offering protection to young or injured elephants

You can also watch this video to learn more about the intelligence of elephants:”

“7 Behaviors That Prove Elephants Are Incredibly Smart | Elephant Sanctuary Park in Chiang Mai (Thailand)

Most contemporary ethologists view the elephant as one of the world’s most intelligent animals. Elephants manifest a wide variety of behaviors, including those associated with grief, learning, mimicry, playing, altruism, tool use, compassion, cooperation, self-awareness, memory, and communication.”

These animals are subjects of abuse and murder from greedy people who slay them for their body parts.

They are part of GOD’S creations and need to be protected and respected as they share this planet too. Let us not forget to love them too.

Peace and blessings ❤️

Satans evil craftiness will distract you from GOD.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

Hello everyone.

The devil is very deceiving and persistent in claiming the souls of mankind to do what he wants.

He will tell you that whatever our beloved FATHER GOD says is wrong. But righteously, that it is actually good from GOD. Using the same tactics he used on Eve to eat the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden.

Like with anything satan tries to convince you is okay, if our beloved FATHER GOD says not to do. Satan will basically say our beloved FATHER GOD is not telling the truth!

By example. You buy a product from the store like a well decorated cake. It looks good from the outside. But when you are home and you cut into it you then see it is rotten. You were led to believe it was fresh and good to eat.

This is how satan operates. Covering up the lies with sweets so you will be led down the wrong path. The same path that he chose to walk on that got him kicked out of heaven for all eternity.

If you eat of the rotten cake you will get sick or worse. And this is what he wants so that he will claim your soul. And say “I didn’t make you do anything, that was your choice. You didn’t have to listen to what I said. ” Laughing as you didn’t listen to GOD and will suffer the same consequences as he will in hell.

In the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible, passages like John 8:43-47 and Ephesians 4:27 emphasize the importance of not listening to or giving place to Satan, highlighting his nature as a liar and the need to resist his influence. 

  • John 8:43-47 (KJV):This passage contrasts those who are of God and those who are of the devil, stating that those who are of God hear God’s words, while those who are not of God do not.
    • It describes the devil as a liar and the father of lies, and emphasizes that those who speak lies are of the devil. 
    • It suggests that those who are not of God will not believe the truth, even when it is spoken by God. 
  • Ephesians 4:27 (KJV):This verse warns against giving place to the devil, meaning not to allow him to have a foothold or a place to operate in one’s life. 
  • James 4:7 (KJV):This verse instructs believers to resist the devil, stating that he will flee from those who stand firm in their faith. 
  • Luke 8:12 (KJV):This verse describes how the devil takes away the word out of the hearts of those who hear it, but do not understand it. 
  • 1 Corinthians 5:5 (KJV):This verse describes how a person can be delivered to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord. 
  • Revelation 2:24 (KJV):This verse speaks of those who do not hold a certain doctrine, and who have not known the depths of Satan, and states that no other burden will be laid upon them. 

You will appreciate listening to GOD when your days are done and you are welcomed into heaven by our savior JESUS.

Whatever satan offers you tell him no, he can keep it.

Peace and blessings ❤️

Faith and trusting the LORD GOD.

Hello everyone,

I pray that you all will have a blessed day in the LORD GOD. I will tell you that with trust and faith are you led and you will find that because of this , life will be easier for you. Our beloved FATHER GOD knows all and wil never lie to you. HE will lead on the right path.

You may lean on your own understanding which is never good. Our understanding as a human will be nothing as compared to our beloved FATHER GOD’S wisdom. I will tell you these things from the connection and love I have for our FATHER GOD.

Recently , I wanted to do something for I was not certain about something that was happening around me. I choice I was about to do that was not needed to do be done. Without getting into it, too much it would have been a bad financial choice let’s just say.

A strong feeling of do not do that came over me. And I knew it was from our beloved FATHER GOD that was telling me not to do it. I listened to what I feel was HIM telling me not to do it. I said to myself I will leave this with the LORD GOD. Boy I am glad I had listened. For I saw what was the reason to listen.

I avoided having to pay the cost of being disobedient too. Everything worked out because I stepped back and gave it to THE LORD and it was fixed and over with. And good news followed behind it as well too. I am so happy that I had listened too!.

GOD can fix anything. HE will warn you and shut the door about anything that will cause you distress, pain or what ever that HE doesn’t want to see you go through. And GOD has helped me more than once with things when I learned how to pray, wait and listen.

Pray. Wait. Listen to GOD. The best formula I can advise to give you.

People, if you don’t know GOD and HIS son JESUS, right now is the time to do so. You dont even have to finish reding this blog right now. Just fall on knees and ask JESUS into your heart as savior. Feel the purely perfect love from GOD and JESUS warm over instantly!

This year alone through the freezing cold, he helped me get the water running again through my in-laws, and neighbors, and coworkers helped me with advice too. They were led as I feel through our beloved FATHER GOD sending them to help me get through the hardest times of my life last year. And through the sick cold I had caught as well got too.

GOD is amazing. GOD is good. GOD is good all the time.

JESUS saves and has saved me.

I love them both with all of my heart and I talk to them each day. As though I am I tslking to a person in the room with me. For I know I am never alone. Never.

Deuteronomy 31:8

“And the LORD, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.”

King James Version (KJV)

Stay in prayer, for we know not when our JESUS will return.

Peace and blessings be to you!

My loved ones.

Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to.

It hurts.

A broken heart is hard to heal quickly. Especially when the breaks are 92 days apart in passing.

Their deaths in the same year.

I lost two of my loved ones last year in 2024. One was expected and the other one expected.

Life is not the same without them. 💔. You were used to talking to them and looking into their eyes and hearing the sound of their voices.

I thank GOD that they are in a better place than here on earth. That they are in heaven with GOD and HIS SON JESUS. They both depended on JESUS, loved GOD. Both were praying people.

It is hard to this day to say goodbye to them. It will be for awhile yet. Difficult phase indeed.

Peace and blessings ❤️

Hmmm. It is a choice of either online or brick and mortar stores.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

Where would you go on a shopping spree?

Well ,

There are things I buy on the regular. So it would be a well stocked brick and mortar shopping mall where I can go from one place to another with ease. No driving around to find a parking space for each different store to shop in.

Or online in the comfort of my own home saving on gas, avoiding the crowd of people looking for bargains.

See, alot of the brick and mortar may not be well stocked like they used to be. For the sales associate having to tell you the item you are looking for is only sold online anyway.

So for me, I going to go with online for non perishable items that i don’t need ASAP. Just for the convenience of it. I have had it more than once been told to me we sell that online only.

😡😡😡

Not good.

And I thank GOD that what I want or need is still in stock online too! And can get free shipping!

😃😃😃

Peace and blessings ❤️

Responsibilities.

JJ Maslins Art and Designs Leave a comment

What experiences in life helped you grow the most?

When you are a child growing up, you have a limited amount of responsibility. At preschool age you are to listen and obey your parents at all times because of the fact they have learned responsibility before you. They can determine what is right and what is wrong.

This knowledge is passed down to you from the trials and errors that they have learned. Passing on to their children this knowledge so they can avoid negative situations.

And when you listen and understand the consequences of not taking the advice given, we’ll then you can’t say you didn’t know. And that no one ever told you.

But you did. So prepare for the consequences . Prepare for an “I told you so.” because you didn’t listen.

Being responsible is even more so when you are in grade school, high school and college. And when you are done with that looking for a job, getting the job you were trained for, and doing your best to keep it.

Then meeting your spouse, having children , and taking care of this family you and your spouse made together thru the grace of GOD.

From being a child holding on to your parents hand that you love to holding the hand of your own children that you love.

Time flies by quickly.But responsibility seems to linger.

Peace and blessings ❤️
