Who are you?
You are whose you are. Who you are, whose you are.
If you are a Christian, you belong to God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit.
The first thing God tells you about yourself is in Genesis 1:26-27
1:26 - "Then God said, 'Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
1:27 - "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them"
image - statue - a reproduction - the same word used for idol.
The first thing God tells us about ourselves, is that we are little statues of Him, replicas of Him. Which is why we need to be very careful not to let our relationships & people have power over us because our God is a jealous God. Don't worship other people (make them #1 in our lives over Him).
Our physical bodies reflect the spiritual image of God. Psalm 94:9 says "Does he who implanted the ear not hear? Does he who formed the eye not see?" There was sight & seeing before there were eyes & ears.
Our spiritual image reflects God's Spirit, because he gave us His Spirit. Genesis 2:7 - "the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life (from His Spirit), and the man became a living being"
That breath of life is your spirit from God, of God, and for the worshipping of God.
God's eternal nature and essence is comprised of His infinite attributes or character qualities.
We need to be very clear that when he gave us His spirit, He also gave us qualities like His, and power like His.
Because I am like Him created in His image, I also have power like His through that same spirit with the help of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 1:8 says "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
We also have the power to speak life and death as Gos has.

3rd transfer from 360
The beginnings of "The Whore House of Adultery" - more to come later...
Earlier this year while studying the following passages from Proverbs, The Holy Spirit gave me revelation of what I call "The Whore House of Adultery". I received immediate revelation from the text highlighted in yellow, then later came revelation from the text highlighted in aqua, then later more revelation from the rest of the text. I'll post all of the revelation later. If you have any comments, please respond I'd love to hear from you....
Proverbs 3:33
View commentary related to this passage
33The curse of the Lord is in and on the house of the wicked, but He declares blessed (joyful and favored with blessings) the home of the just and consistently righteous.(A)
Proverbs 4:23-27 (Amplified Bible)
23Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life.
24Put away from you false and dishonest speech, and willful and contrary talk put far from you.
25Let your eyes look right on [with fixed purpose], and let your gaze be straight before you.
26Consider well the path of your feet, and let all your ways be established and ordered aright.
27Turn not aside to the right hand or to the left; remove your foot from evil.
Proverbs 5
1MY SON, be attentive to my Wisdom [godly Wisdom learned by actual and costly experience], and incline your ear to my understanding [of what is becoming and prudent for you],
2That you may exercise proper discrimination and discretion and your lips may guard and keep knowledge and the wise answer [to temptation].
3For the lips of a loose woman drip honey as a honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil;(A)
4But in the end she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged and devouring sword.
5Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold of Sheol (Hades, the place of the dead).
6She loses sight of and walks not in the path of life; her ways wind about aimlessly, and you cannot know them.
7Now therefore, my sons, listen to me, and depart not from the words of my mouth.
8Let your way in life be far from her, and come not near the door of her house [avoid the very scenes of temptation],(B)
9Lest you give your honor to others and your years to those without mercy,
10Lest strangers [and false teachings] take their fill of your strength and wealth and your labors go to the house of an alien [from God]--
11And you groan and mourn when your end comes, when your flesh and body are consumed,
12And you say, How I hated instruction and discipline, and my heart despised reproof!
13I have not obeyed the voice of my teachers nor submitted and consented to those who instructed me.
14[The extent and boldness of] my sin involved almost all evil [in the estimation] of the congregation and the community.
15[a]Drink waters out of your own cistern [of a pure marriage relationship], and fresh running waters out of your own well.
16Should your offspring be dispersed abroad as water brooks in the streets?
17[Confine yourself to your own wife] let your children be for you alone, and not the children of strangers with you.
18Let your fountain [of human life] be blessed [with the rewards of fidelity], and rejoice in the wife of your youth.
19Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant doe [tender, gentle, attractive]--let her bosom satisfy you at all times, and always be transported with delight in her love.
20Why should you, my son, be infatuated with a loose woman, embrace the bosom of an outsider, and go astray?
21For the ways of man are directly before the eyes of the Lord, and He [Who would have us live soberly, chastely, and godly] carefully weighs all man's goings.(C)
22His own iniquities shall ensnare the wicked man, and he shall be held with the cords of his sin.
23He will die for lack of discipline and instruction, and in the greatness of his folly he will go astray and be lost.

2nd entry of transferring stuff from 360
More stuff from my journal
July 24, 2005
You held me
You saw what I needed and you gently held me
You held my shoulders
You held my heart
You caressed it and you were gentle, kind, sweet, giving, honest, and pure with my heart
You sought that thing out just for the sole purpose of nurturing it to make it able to receive love
You saw me
I was rough and hard, yet sweet and gentle at the same time
You saw my rough edges
You saw my hard facade, yet you could also see the sweet and gentle spirit within
You saw me when I didn't want to be seen
You saw me in my fear and boldness and you saw me for me
You saw me

Poem from my journal July 24, 2005
You kissed me
You touched me
You reached down into me and found that which was hidden
You found what I tried to hide and protect from this cruel cold world
I'm writing again like I did many years ago.
Thank you for finding what is precious to me and caressing it as if it is precious to you as well.
I hesitate to say, but you found me, my essence, my being, my heart, the me that I didn't want others to see.
You found me.....
