Impostor



Fall in love with being true to yourself, no matter how unpopular it is.” - Edmond Mbiaka..


Meaning of imposter - a person who pretends to be someone else in order to deceive others, especially for fraudulent gain:

 

The word imposter or the referenced word seems to appear approximately 3 times in the Bible. 

 

Are you a what you see, is what you get the type of person?? The word transparency has become a popular word in today’s vocabulary.  We all try to identify and remove imposters from our lives as they most likely can not be trusted with our hearts... 

 

From my experience, many of these imposters have very charismatic types of personalities and can suck you into their snare before you realize what happened you may have become a victim of their fake world and hidden agenda.  

 

Not all imposters can be disclosed with the naked eye. 

Have you ever seen knock off purses, watches, sneakers.. etc 

From a distance, they seem like the real deal.. But the quality can not stand up to the everyday wear and tear of the original... 

 

We all have been guilty of wearing fake smiles, and showing only what we want others to believe. Social media is a hotbed for fake, imposters, and for creating a life you want others to believe. Do we read between in lines and find the true authentic person.. the raw, the real ?? 

 

I do believe we have all been victims of trusting, of giving our hearts, and of being injured by the imposter syndrome. 

 

Yes, Christians can be imposters too. They have the same human frailties and desires, we all live in an imperfect world. We all crave to belong, to fit in .. but at what cost.. To be an imposter we give up the best part of ourselves... We all have unique and special qualities that God himself has given to us. And these qualities get lost as we hide behind what we want others to see. 

 

Many thought and still think of Jesus as an imposter. I am curious what does it take for people to believe?  What does it take for people to see His transparency? Even in death He never wavered? Most if not all imposters will shed their cloak and change like a chameleon when things get hot. Not Him. He was steadfast in His mission. 

 

I can only speak from my experience and my heart. Jesus has shown me His love, His compassion, and His grace. His agenda has always been to LOVE. Many theologians have tried their very best to disprove His life only to find He was indeed the real deal.. He was and still is that what you see is what you get the type of person?? 

 

The question becomes do we spend the time to truly know Him? Do we show Him our true authenticity? Or do we attempt to show Him the facade we created?? Trust me He sees past the mask we wear. He sees our hearts.. and the most amazing thing is He loves us anyway... 


I will admit, He holds my transparent heart. It’s taken me awhile to shed the layers of life that had my heart bound .. and I am still a work in progress. But with His teachings and many tears, (not all sad tears). 

I am finding the true, the raw, the original, person God has made me to be.. Trust me, I one hundred percent know ... He is not finished with me yet... 

 

It’s been an amazing adventure of self-discovery and only He has the power to truly see our hearts...  He wows me... 

 

Don’t be a fake or an imposter, be transparent, be raw, be everything God knows you can be!!!

 

It’s Him, It’s always Him... 


“It’s impossible to disappear from you or to ask the darkness to hide me, for your presence is everywhere, bringing light into my night.”

Psalms 139:11 TPT

 

For many deceivers [heretics, posing as Christians] have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge and confess the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh (bodily form). This [person, the kind who does this] is the deceiver and the antichrist [that is, the antagonist of Christ 2 John 1:7


“God, I invite your searching gaze into my heart. Examine me through and through; find out everything that may be hidden within me. Put me to the test and sift through all my anxious cares. See if there is any path of pain I’m walking on, and lead me back to your glorious, everlasting way— the path that brings me back to you.”

Psalms 139:23-24 TPT

Need



Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.Philippians 4:11

 

Meaning of need circumstances in which something is necessary, or that require some course of action; necessity:  

 

I do believe I may need help finding out how many times the word need is in the Bible. 

 

Putting that thought aside for now. As I watch people in general we all have needs some more than others... Some are givers and some are takers. Be honest and look deep within and ask yourself which title do you fall under ?? Giver? Taker? 

 

There are so many needs in our world. But many of us are so busy living our lives that we may have a tendency to overlook many of them. 

 

The words “I need” can become a selfish action. I ask you to take a moment and say with me... I need! And now you finish the sentence ... 

 

Where is your heart? Is your need a monetary want? Then it truly is not a need but a WANT.  Many of us get caught up in the rat race of ownership of “things” and lose sight of what we should value most. 

 

Many of us pray for our wants instead of our needs... Do you use your time with our Heavenly Father wisely? Do we bring the needs of others before Him? 

 

Have you ever asked Him, what do may need? Many of us think of Him as an unlimited ATM. We pray and stand there waiting with our hands open ready to receive our materialistic wants... 



Do we behave like His spoiled children? Or do we humble ourselves before Him and truly ask Him what can I do for you? What do you need of me today? When we began to shift our hearts and minds towards the needs of others our hearts start to open and we began to see the true value of life and our monetary wants become less important.  You may find a love bigger than you even realize existed...You may find a joy that has been hidden deep within. You may find the true meaning of life!!! 

 

It’s Him, It’s always Him


It's His amazing LOVE... That spills out upon the hearts that are willing vessels. Have you felt Him stirring in your soul? 


I NEED Him now and forever !! 


But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19

Restoration






When you witness restoration in relationships, you have witnessed a beautiful gift from God... 


Meaning of restoration brings back (a previous right, practice, custom, 
or situation); reinstate.

 

The word “restore” appears 136 times throughout the books of the Bible. 

 

To restore something or someone, it must be broken...  Many of us may have experienced broken, tattered, or wounded hearts in our life. 

 

Life and Love are a beautiful gift, from our heavenly Father and are meant to be shared. We are the ones that can not seem to get out of our own way. Egos, Power, and Self play a major part in the destruction, it can erode our world, our hearts, and our relationships. 

 

Let’s look to the Book that seems to hold the wisdom that has withstood the test of time. Many of these books we know as the Bible are tattered and worn from use. But has the importance of the message they hold actually been digested? Has the message taken residents in the hearts of the readers?

 

Restoration is a theme that runs rampant in scripture and teaches the love of God. What I find most puzzling though, is most of us call on God only when they seek to restore their immediate problem or need ... We want Him to immediately fix our problems!!  

 

I think we should look to solidify and restore our love with the Father of Love, His amazing, beautifully gifted Son Yashua, and the mysterious yet loving Holy Spirit. Are we lukewarm with our love? Do we only seek them when we have a need? I am a firm believer that we should work diligently to restore our divine relationship with Him all of Him. 

 

This restoration takes time, it takes effort on our part. It will be the most significant, the most rewarding, most loving relationship one could ever dream of.  It will bring uncontrollable joy. It will bring peace, it will bring a love that defies our human understanding. 

 

The secret is once this relationship is restored... So many other things in your life will be restored hope, patience, and a love for others. The list is endless... 


Your heart will be free to love Him out loud. I say seek Him! Find Him... and restore the most important part of this love relationship. You may find that it has been you that may have been missing!  Because He has never wavered in His love for you. Make Him your heart's desire... your life will take on new meaning!!! He wows me!! 

 

It’s Him. It’s always Him!!


Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit. PSALMS 51:12

  

And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. Joel 2:25

Restore by JoAnn Turnbull


“The work of restoration cannot begin until a problem is fully faced.” Dan Allender.. 

The word restore is used 136 times in the Bible.


It means to repair, renew or bring back that which has been lost. 


As we go through life, we have to restore things quite often.  Such as restoring a wooden porch that has been out in the weather for years. The boards have begun to rot and mold. Or we might need to restore a friendship that has been neglected for years. The most fun might be to restore a wardrobe that has clothes from the ’90s. 

 
All of these things we can do ourselves. But there is one thing WE cannot restore.  It is an intimate relationship with our Heavenly Father.  Sometimes we do not realize that this relationship needs to be restored.  We have traveled our journey of life for years without Him.  We have made our own plans and left Him out.


There may have periods in our life when we hear something about Him and we might really try to get a hold of what we hear and we will be enthusiastic about Him for a time, but we will soon go back to our ways. We may even go to Church on Sunday and Wednesday, but it is from habit and looking good in the eyes of others. 

How do we restore the relationship with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit?  


How much do we desire His presence?  


How do we return to the excitement and joy we once may have had. It can happen when we hear a song that really speaks to our hearts.  It may be a word we read or hear.  Or it may be a story someone tells us that ignites the spark in you to seek Him with all your heart.  This will be the start of the pursuit of Him. We will not be disappointed.  He will restore our soul to all the joy and love He has. 

 
He will gently take our hand and walk with us as He restores us with a delight in Him that increases every day.  He is that Treasure we have longed for.  He indeed is the restorer of our souls.  Hold tight to Him and with an overwhelming heart give Him all your love and praise. 

And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. Joel 2:25

Passport




The Bible is our passport. Jesus is our pilot.Heaven is our destination...


 Meaning of passport an official document issued by a government, certifying the holder's identity and citizenship and entitling them to travel under its protection to and from foreign countries

 

The word Passport does not appear in the Bible but perhaps the idea may. Let's see what we can discover 

 

When I see the word passport I immediately think travel. Where are we going? Maybe that much-needed Vacation? Perhaps a quick business trip? Or maybe to visit family, friends or just maybe to explore an exciting destination? 

 

These are trying times we are living in. They have made traveling quite a challenge!! As I embark on air travel, for the first time since the pandemic.  I found many changes that give many of us pause... including me. 

 

I arrived at the airport one hour before my flight time as suggested.. traveling light with only one bag and a backpack. At the curbside, I prepared my gear. Electronic boarding pass (much like a passport for domestic travel.) check! Face Mask check, face shield, check hand sanitizer check ... All clear so then I made my way to the electric door and as they opened I stood there for a minute and made sure I brought the most important element... I invited my team God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit to stay with me... 


Now armed with everything I step into the terminal ... It was a surreal moment it seems like there were hundreds of busy people. No names, they were not even traveling to the same destination. I could only see a sea of eyes and multi-colored face mask... we scurried along and most all blindly followed...  

 

We made it through ID check. We made it through bomb-sniffing dogs.. and then security. 

 

Hmm, what has our Father's world come to? It is a sad reality.  And I would not be surprised if He is greatly disappointed. 

 

As I glanced down at my phone I realized my plane has started to board.. so I began to sprint through the terminal..  with baggage in tow.

 

 I made it just in time.. only to find they changed the gate... 

I advised the attendant to let them know I was on my way. I turned and with deliberate forward motion, I again made my way to the new gate... 

 

I was the last one to Board... 

 

I made it!! Phew! 

 

I found my seat .. settled in as the announcements began to fill the air. I turned on my music the song was titled Yeshua! It’s a beautiful song that speaks to my soul. I began to relax as I caught my breath. I bowed my head thanked my spiritual team! All of them one by one. 

 

The plane prepared for take-off and we were airborne. As I floated in the heavens I began to wonder how does this experience and the word passport relate to the Bible? 


I do believe we are all on a spiritual journey home. We are all just taking different modes of travel, at different rates of speed. Hopefully with the same destination in mind... A place my Savior calls Paradise... 

 

The question becomes are we prepared? Do we gather all the equipment we need to embrace that life journey for eternity?  Do we close our lips behind the mask we wear and truly listen to the whispers of our team as they try to guide us to our chosen destination? Do we run from the gate of darkness and find our way to the light ?? 

 

Do we equip ourselves to be confident that we will make it or will we be that last one that just made it by the grace of God? Or will we be left on the tarmac waving goodbye? 

 

And as I closed my eyes the song continued to lull me into a state of peace and complete surrender as I drifted to sleep. I Could hear the faint whispers as the music continued to play... Yeshua, Yeshua 

 

It’s Him, it’s always been Him. 

 

He is our passport to paradise ..  (He is my 3n1) 


Revelation 21:27, NASB: "shall ever come into it, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life." 

 

“He who overcomes, I will grant to him to sit down with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.”

Revelation 3:21 NASB1995

Deep




God didn’t need us. But he wanted us. And that is the most amazing thing.  Rick Warren

Meaning of deep extending far down from the top or surface.” a deep gorge’. Very intense or extreme.


There is 63 passage that ref to deep in the KJV of the Bible.

 

Deep can be attached to many words, Deepwater? Deep meaning scripture? deep hate? There are so many words. But I will set my mind aside and speak from the heart of a deep love that I have grown to cherish. It’s a love so deep, so beautiful, so amazing. It is difficult to put it into words? It can take you from 0 to 60 in just seconds. It can open your soul to see the wonders in each moment of every day…It can leave you breathless…

 

Many will look from a distance and not understand this amazing gift of deep love. It flows like a river… It brushes softly against your skin like a warm summer breeze. It is forgiving, kind, and will hold you while you sleep.  It will wake you with the warmth of the first-morning light as it breaks the darkened sky… It's as soft as a delicate rose petal. And as sweet as a newborn baby's cry. 


Many have been blessed to experience this deep love… Many are searching so hard to find this love in worldly things… They can never find rest. Because they have not learned that only this deep love can satisfy their soul. 

 

Who is this that has the amazing gift ??  I do… 


But you do too you just need to unwrap this amazing gift. Let’s unwrap it together. I get so excited when I can be at your unwrapping party… The package is beautiful like nothing you have ever seen. It has an iridescent glow… It's filled with wonder. It is filled with indescribable love. It's the most indescribable gift you can ever receive. It will give you joy for eternity. 


Ready take the golden ribbon in your hand and on the count of 3… Take a deep breath and slowly and deliberately pull the ribbon…. Your eyes will widen, and you feel this love engulf your soul. Your heart will sing a new song… and as you open your heart you will squeal with delight…

 

It's Him, It's always HIM…

 

Now that you have received this amazing gift… it will be your heart's desire to cherish Him and return this love… and to your surprise, it will grow deeper with each passing day. He wow’s me ….


“Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God.” 1 John 3:1 


“My deep need calls out to the deep kindness of your love. ........ All through the day, Yahweh has commanded his endless love to pour over me. Through the night I sing his songs and my praises to the living God.”

Psalms 42:7-8 TPT

Blank




With 
God All Things Are Possible. He sees the endless possibilities. (LG)

 

The meaning of blank is:  Without color; lacking characteristics which give variety. Blank (Adjective) Free from writing, printing, or marks; having an empty space to be filled in; as, blank paper; 

 

I could not find this word in the Bible. But my eyes were fixed on the blanks between the words and verses... and scriptures. It is clean no marks, but they also were void of substance? Void of love, void of the beautiful message of Him...

 

Have you ever had to write a paper and found yourself staring at the blank page? Struggling to bring the words from your heart to life.

 

I am so thankful that my heavenly Father does not struggle. He sees each blank page as a beautiful masterpiece and an opportunity to write the story of life and love across our hearts. He lovingly takes our heart in His gentle hands... And begins to inscribe and craft the most amazing love transformation we could ever experience. 

 

He leads our spirit through the most amazing journey on earth. As we begin to hear His voice and follow in His steps. The once blank pages seem to surprisingly begin to take on new life.  With each word, a beautiful song of love begins to unfurl. He masterfully leads us where we find a freed heart.  And with Him at our side, each page becomes a symphony, each verse a new song. Each word points us to a  love that speaks to our soul. 

 

Before He came into my life my soul was a blank page. I was void in the knowledge of His amazing love. A void that cuts deep into my soul.  I can say that now because I realize what it was that was missing. 

 

But for some reason, He decided it was time to shake things up a bit and He awoke my soul.  My life will never be the same. He meets me at every turn. I may be the blank page before Him. But I have given Him the pen and will trust Him with my life. Because only He can write such a beautiful love story. He is a master of creating something exciting, unique, and special from nothing... He is the author of my life and shares a love that guides my heart.

 

It's Him, Oh Boy,  it is forever Him. 

 

“Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Hebrews 12:1-2 KJV


Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; And in Your book were all written The days that were appointed for me, When as yet there was not one of them [even taking shape].”

Psalms 139:16 AMP
