Prophet Nola Pelser
You can't go
without church. It keeps you connected. It's divine fellowship. Church
is divine fellowship. It is essential, because you are living in the
world that Jesus loves and has given His life for. Church is His plan
for His kingdom, church is His design and place, so that, in the world
where there is war, pestilence, plagues, floods, famines, and
wickedness, you and I can have divine fellowship. Church is an awesome
thing. It is made for the saints. It is made so that we can get
strengthened, and cleansed, to be the light that He has designed us to
be.
Jn 9 & 10
The Pharisees were angry because
they couldn't understand the supernatural, they only looked in the
natural. The hurled insults at the man that Jesus healed.
We can
get so bogged down by our lives, and the busyness of life, the
worries, anxieties, and the many things that we are bearing with. What
is Jesus, the Son of God to you? Who is Jesus to you? Why are we in
church, and why are we serving Him? It doesn't matter who, but you are
going to worship someone. It is in mankind to worship. There is nothing
in this world – nothing – that can compare to the salvation message,
the good news of Jesus Christ.
Do you know why people celebrate Christmas? You always see love, joy and peace. That has been pronounced
by the angel at the birth of Jesus.
There is no other salvation
but through Jesus Christ, and people will begin to tell you that you
only need god. They are thieves, and they want to climb into something
that is precious. Protection, provision, peace, love, rest, you cannot
get it except you come through the door, Jesus.
Young people, you
cannot go to worldly parties because you will not hear the Shepherd's
voice. You will hear a strange voice, and you will run away, because
sheep do not recognize a stranger's voice. Many people will come and
say: “this is salvation, and you'll get it through this way”. The
cabala is old jewish fables. Jesus says: “I am the door. Whoever enters
by Me will be saved”. You will know, if you go into a place, you will
recognize His voice. The Holy Spirit will not let an upright heart go
astray. Keep in the word of God, it is your discerner. We need to hold
to the truth.
The unbeliever cannot believe that Jesus was sent by
the Father through the virgin Mary, they can't believe it. Why? People,
we are busy with the divine, we are busy with the supernatural, we are
busy with the Spirit which you can't see. If men are called gods
(people to whom the word of God came: judges, priests, people like
Moses, David, and we are sure that there are nowadays gods as well),
Jesus is called the Son of God. We are God's creatures. God is in
control of the earth and of heaven.
Those who have tasted the
powers of the world to come will not backslide easily, and will not
easily be thrown off their faith. We are dealing with the supernatural.
Rom 10:3-10
It is time, in these days, that we proclaim
Jesus as the Son of God. People need to hear it. How can they believe
unless someone is sent? Pray for boldness to proclaim the Son of Man,
that Jesus is the Son of God. Our gospel is very simple, but there is
an onslaught, a demonic attack against our simple gospel, that Jesus is
the Son of God, that Jesus saves, that we all have sinned and fall
short of the glory of God. Remember, without the law there was no sin.
Paganism couldn't be condemned. It is the law that condemned that, and
Jesus is the end of the law. He brought salvation. Without salvation,
and without the church, the world is going to get worse.
A dream Nola had in August.
“
I dreamt of three colorful frogs coming out of the earth, out of holes
in the earth. They were very beautiful, very colorful and big. I stood
away, because I knew that this was dangerous, and I told everyone
around me that this was dangerous.”
Rev 16:13
In the Old
Testament, frogs are unclean animals. The imagery of frogs speaks of
deceptive propaganda that will, in the last days, lead people to accept
and support the cause of evil.
What does unclean mean? Is stands
for: offensive, defiled, nakedness, disgracefulness, impurity, common,
profane, and polluted. You need to separate yourself from that.
Eph 5:5
2 Pet 2:10
Heb 9:13
Rom 14:14
1 Cor 7:14
2 Cor 6:14-18
Acts 5:16
Acts 10:28
Television
is going to become more naked. We are going to see more and more of it
on television. What are we are christians doing? Separate yourself from
it. There is a lawlessness that is coming in the earth, and it is
preparing itself for God's wrath. God's wrath comes upon wickedness.
The Lord says the He will judge the world. We as christians are to
judge things amongst ourselves. You can't judge the world, for God so
loved the world. We need to get them saved. Don't judge the world,
don't judge sinners, they are supposed to sin. You sin too. It is by
grace that we are saved. Separate yourself in your heart and in your
mind. Ask God to cleanse you, ask God to give you spiritual desires.
God has opened our eyes so that we can see His kingdom.
What a
privilege. Salvation is such an awesome thing. It is precious. Do you
understand how precious your salvation is? It is so precious. You are
so precious to God, that He gave His Son so that you will not lack, and
so that you will not be unclean. Salvation is so awesome. It is the
power of God unto salvation. He translates us out of darkness into His
light.
Jesus came for the sick and for the sinful. He took those
sins, and He nailed it to the cross. We sing about the power of the
blood of Jesus, but His power is present to heal and to deliver us of
every shameful thing. Have faith, not in your faith, but in the
finished work of Jesus on the cross.
Do you know how much God
loves you? Do you know that He calls you holy? He calls you set apart.
God views you different than how you view yourself. God has great
respect for you, and therefore He wants you to clothe yourself. He
clothes us with His salvation. It's a robe, and it's beautiful. God
clothes us with beauty. He puts the nicest ring on your finger. Clothe
yourself with kindness, compassion, and mercy. It's fitting. He clothes
you with robes of righteousness, and He crowns you with salvation.
Do
you know how beautiful you are? If you think little of yourself, it's a
lie. You must denounce it. That is the enemy trying to steal your son
ship. You are a son of the Living God, through faith in Jesus. You are
His righteousness in Christ Jesus. You are beautiful, you are awesome,
you are wonderful, and that is why God doesn't want us to speak slander
to each other, because that comes from the earth. It is not from God.
We all fall into that trap because we see with our natural eyes. May
God open our eyes so that we may see and recognize the body of Christ.
When you discern the body of Christ, it means you are discerning each
other to be brothers and sisters in the Lord and that we all are
saints. It is that respect that God brings by the Holy Spirit that we
will view each other higher. That means that you are already high,
because God lifted you up. Esteem each other higher than yourself. Why?
Because people are awesome, and precious. We need to treat each other
with love and respect. Why? We don't know one another after the flesh
anymore, but after the Spirit.
God gave gifts to the church. He gave
apostles, prophets, teachers, pastors, and evangelists to lift you into
maturity, to help you to mature, to help you to come and stand in your
position that God has ordained for you. Nothing more, but nothing less.
We always underestimate our own capabilities. That is not to say that
you must be proud, but God wants you to have a sane estimation of who
you are in the power and in the light of God, and of His word. Don't
let anyone despise your youth, because God views you differently.
Do
you know why the saints in heaven (according to the book of Revelation)
wear linen clothes that are pure, white and clean? It's the righteous
acts of the saints. We are called the righteousness of God in Christ
Jesus. Because you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, you do
righteous acts.
