“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1,

King James Version [KJV]).

Greetings In The Holy Name Of Jesus Yahshuah,

My sisters and my brothers, I know you possibly feel darkness trying to overtake you and bear down on you until the very breath of life that God breathed into you to give you life is stifled and you find that you have lost your breath and you are threatened to lose your life, for you cannot breathe because the air around you is gone. There is no air circulating providing you with fresh air. You try to inhale fresh air and the fresh air around you is gone. There is no air in the atmosphere around you. This is not because someone is pressing on your larynx or your wind pipe—-your trachea, in your passage system in your body but because the very air that you want to breathe is missing from your immediate atmosphere where you stand at. You find yourself gasping for oxygen-rich air but there is no air available to you where you stand at. You find yourself searching for air initially you might panic and breathe in and out—-exhaling and inhaling but nothing is coming your way. Yes, this is a scary position to find yourself in. There is no wonder that you begin to become aggressively confused in your search for air because without oxygen-rich air coming through your air passage system, you could die.The problem here is life without air is no life. Metaphorically speaking we must consider that your body is now in a ship without the wind needed to blow your sails in any direction; just to move you out of your moment of despair into the Word of God where you are a living soul. You are dead now until you can find your breath, get your breath back or breathe in oxygen-rich air that is your gift of life. Figuratively, you know you are the walking dead because you have not passed out yet so you have a few moments to consider what is the single-most important thing that you want to do in your last few seconds of life because life is leaving you. Most importantly, literally speaking you cannot live without oxygen-rich air. This is truth. There is no getting around this fact that your air is cut-off and you are without air. The body needs air to live. This gift of life is an everyday awareness of what God gifted you with.

We say why is this a false reality because we have not introduced this thinking to you yet but let us try to go back to the Garden of Eden where we find Eve is coming under the influence of the devil because she is not following the Word of God. God told Adam and Eve, Do not eat of the fruit of good and evil. Yet, Eve could not stay away. She let the devil draw her to him in a false reality that the devil speaks Truth when we all know that the devil is a liar since the day he was born. The devil drew Eve to him and Eve was drawn to him and listened to the words of the devil. The devil influenced Eve. The devil was standing in the Garden of Eden but he was not in God’s plan. The devil got in God’s plan through Eve. He influenced her and she listened to him and did what he said. How did he influence her? The devil influenced Eve with subtlety in words. He did not give her money. He did not promise her wealth. He called God a liar in such a subtle way that she believed he was Truth yet we know the devil is a liar. That devil made Eve feel that God was hiding the Truth and it was up to the devil to deliver the Truth to her—- open her eyes to the Truth. However, we know that the devil’s subtlety in words is a false reality. The devil was trying to get into the Plan of God in a big way because good would have to deal with evil everyday of life because the fruit of good and evil would let the devil in with all the evil-intentions to steal, kill, destroy the plan of God for the heavens and the Earth, for all of mankind and all of God’s creatures. Was man prepared to think as a God to know in his conscious that the God he serves is a living God who was walking with him and present with him in the Garden of Eden until Eve and Adam ate of the fruit of good and evil which made Adam afraid to even let God see him because now he knew he was naked. Was this nakedness a false reality because now the influence of evil made the absence of clothes an evil thing? Now, Adam wanted clothes. God gave Adam clothes but he punished Adam, Eve, and the devil.The influence of the fruit of good and evil questioned what God commanded in Word to Adam and Eve. As if, to say, that man was on his own and needed to think for himself because God was not with him but God is with us, still even after the fall of man. I do not wish to think that this false reality is binding us to death in a life of sin as a sinner because we are afraid to feel the love of God because the questions of our lives as a sinner for God because the devil influenced us and Eve let the devil influence her and Adam let Eve influence him, to eat of the fruit of good and evil. In a subtle atmosphere you are breathing in a false reality because this subtle lie threatens the very air that you breathe; your life. This subtle atmosphere threatens to take your breath away. You cannot breathe in this subtle atmosphere. You are influenced to just accept the words of a liar because you cannot breathe. You feel you must accept the words in order to breathe. But, God did not put you in that subtle atmosphere with out oxygen-rich air. The devil drew you to him and influenced you to take his words as Truth and deny the Words of God. Why would the devil want you to believe that he knows what is best for you more so than your God? This is ludicrous. This is assinine. This is a liar.
