CARL BRANKER

LOVE CAN NEVER BE FULLY EXPLAINED.  THE MOST BRILLIANT OF HUMAN MIND IS NOT ADEQUATE TO DEFINE LOVE.

LOVE IS A SOUL AFLAME WITH ITS PASSION,  IT IS LIKE A FIRE IN THE FOREST, NONE WILL ESCAPE ITS FORCE, AND EVERY TREE  WILL SET ABLAZE ANOTHER.

WHEN IT IS QUENCHED, IT IS NOT EXTINGUISHED IN MEMORY NOR REALITY. 

LOVE NEVER DIES, IT ONLY GROWS COLD IN THE HEARTS, BUT NEVER DIES.

THE WIND, THE RAIN THE THUNDER AND LIGHTNING AND ALL THE FORCES OF THE UNIVERSE CANNOT DESTROY LOVE.

EVERY LIVING THING IS THE RECEIPIANS OF LOVE.

LOVE IS FIRE. IT IS A FIRE THAT LIVES IN THE HUMAN SOUL, BUT LOVE MUST BE HARNESSED AND CONTROLLED.

ACTS OF LOVE ARE NECESSARY AND COMMON TO HUMANITY.....

DCB.

have found that people who often need motivation to accomplish their own set of  goals, usually regress from setting new and bigger ones. 

DCB.

There are many days that may seem dull or nothing is happening in a your life.

Well, every day may not be for you, but every day is part of you.

Birthdays, anniversaries, and celebrations are happening all around you making so many very happy.

The power of mind, to recognize every day as a wonderful and purposeful day depends on the individual. 

Each day begins with a beautiful sunrise and closes with a majestic sunset whether you see it or not.

Do not  just count the days of the week, but enjoy the beauty each day unfolds.

Today, a rose unfolds its petals  in full array displaying it's magnificent design, a first child is born to a young couple, someone caught their first fish, a child learns to ride a bicycle and someone fell in love somewhere.

You are not too far from happiness, make a choice and change the negative things around you into positive.

You are part of a great day, receive your joy out of today. Psalm 118:24

DCB.

If all your wishes and desires were fulfilled today, you may be surprise that something will be missing. 

Your cup may not be full.

The simple reason for this is, the imagination of what your self- fulfillment was expected to be. 

A wealthy lifestyle does not come without its troubles.

We live in a competitive society where the challenges for betterment are great and sometimes difficult. 

Many excel in their professions while others struggle.

Happiness and peace of mind are the treasures of the human soul and spirit, and was created by the Almighty for everyone.

Therefore, NEVER leave out from your desire and wishes God's true purpose for your life. 

Seek The Lord and make Him priority in your life today.  

PUT HIM FIRST IN EVERY THING. HE REALLY LOVES YOU AND HAS THE DIRECTION FOR YOUR LIFE.

DCB.

The philosophy of Dr. Carl Branker.

It is so important to seek within you  the best values and morals that are hidden. There are many influences that come our way, but your responsibility is to sift though everything and embrace what is right for you.

Don't try to become someone else, there are already too many doubles and triples of people who do not even know who they are.

New ideas and things  are always embraced by those who are positive and live in expectancy of a brighter future, but the fearful mind gets left behind, only to be trampled by a herd, not knowing where they are going.

                                                    MANHOOD 

A lazy man without ambition and responsibility does not qualify as manhood.

A man who impregnates a woman without taking the responsibility to care for his child is below the level of manhood.

A man who mistreats and abuses a woman is confused about his own self.

A man who does not seek to provide for his own family should not eat nor be fed.

Manhood is the maturity of any man who brings great reward to his family.

Manhood is the strength and tenderness a man demonstrates to his wife, sons and daughters.

A woman who enables a lazy irresponsible man, is gathering fuel for an impending fire that will scorch her heart beyond repair.

DCB.

WHAT MATTERS

Dr. C. Branker

Some of the most beautiful things in life last a short time.

Take for instance a rose; a beautiful sight to behold, yet only last for a few hours.

If a rose had a voice to declare its existence, what will it say?

"I'm glorious, full of color, majestically design and fragranced?

 Maybe.

Yet, the rose is here for a few hours.

Humans are also glorious creations with gifts, talents and aromas that affect and interact others.

We are more than a memory of hours, but we live by  design to inspire others in every way and create good memories.

Shine, shine, shine.

DCB

                     POOR  COMMUNICATION  DESTROYS    RELATIONSHIPS         

                                                      PART C.

Communication is the gift of expressing oneself to another bringing clarity  and understanding.

As simple as this may sound, it could be very complex for some people due to presupposition. 

According to the dictionary, a presupposition is background belief relating to something someone said and generally will remain a necessary assumption whether the utterance is placed in the form of an assertion, denial, or question. 

For instance, at the end of a resent counseling session, I ask the husband if he would like to say anything to his wife, he looked her straight in the eyes and said to her very slowly, "Honey I love you with all my heart". Her immediate response was, " What do you mean by that"?  Whether she had doubts or not, she couldn't hear his heart.

Communication to some, believe that they must be satisfied on their terms and conditions, and if no one else sees it nor understand their way, there is no resolve to the problems.

Not having it your way, doesn't mean the conversation was not healthy, it simply means you are beginning to listen and understand how someone else is thinking and feeling by communicating.

Also, if the communication is intense, not having the last word does not mean defeat, but the opportunity to continue another time.

MAKE RICH YOUR LIFESTYLE THROUGH COMMUNICATION.

DCB.

                      POOR COMMUNICATION DESTROYS RELATIONSHIPS.

                                                           Part B

The story in scriptures about a nation of people building a tower to reach God and to preserve themselves, came thumbing down because there were no permission to build on that site, neither did the architect obtained the necessary building permits. ( Genesis :11.)

God looked down, observed their activities, and realized that their determination was strong, they were working as one for their cause, they communicated with each other, and nothing would stop them.

His divine plan of stopping their project was not an earthquake, which definitely would have pushed back their time for completion and celebration, neither did He send an inspector to post a STOP WORK sign somewhere on the building site. 

He decided the best way to break this union of oneness was to confuse their language. 

No communication destroyed their tower. They had to abort their mission...

So to with life today, if you cannot communicate and get understanding, your dreams, hopes, aspirations for your family will fall apart.

Their are people in your life to make you better at what you do, but not communicating hinders the process. 

The many sacrifices you have already made for your progress can only be destroyed by not sharing the blueprints that has been designed by the CHIEF ARCHITECT AND BUILDER.

LOVE, COMMUNICATE, FORGIVE AND BUILD.

DCB.

                    POOR COMMUNICATION DESTROYS RELATIONSHIPS.

For the last 18 years  as a Christian Psychologist, I have counseled many couples with marital problems. 

The problems whether small or insurmountable, all originated with how they communicated to each other.

Communication requires SACRIFICE, and sacrifice demands HUMILITY and SINCERITY OF THE HEART.

When we approach a situation that is causing a conflict in a relationship, usually one partner will evade the truth by creating a louder noise or distraction while the other yearns to restore.

I believe the true soul of every individual wishes the forces within that restrain, could be broken.  Being free from that restraint means, that he or she is willing to sacrifice shame and embarrassment to fix the problem.

FORGIVENESS  is usually the lock that opens or shuts this door. If this door is not opened, the couple's union inevitably will be destroyed. 

Confessing your faults or wrongdoing to your partner is a sacred covenant that requires forgiveness.

This is not always easy for some people, however  the destroying of a relationship pivots on TRUE LOVE which is always about SACRIFICE AND FORGIVENESS.

MAKE RICH YOUR COMMUNICATION, AND AVOID THE PITFALLS OF POVERTY.

SEPTEMBER 21st. 2017.

On August 30th 2017, upon entry to my home, one foot inside, I heard the Lord speaking to me concerning what was about to happen.

"I WILL VISIT THE ISLANDS AND THE NATIONS WITH STRENGTH AND FORCE, FOR THEY HAVE TURNED ASIDE OF ME."

This was so clear, I shared it with my wife and we began to pray for the Islands and Nations.

I Shared it with our local church, and they shared the message with their families and friends.

Families in Dominica, Antigua, Barbuda, St Marten, St. Croix, St. Thomas, Nevis and Mexico received the message. 

A visit of Strength and Force is to remind us all that we are not in control of our lives, and that we are living in a time of SPECIAL GRACE. 

One can resist Grace, but SPECIAL GRACE has a short time limit to live among wickedness when a loving God has already provided a plan of redemption through Jesus Christ.

He has also spoken to me of what is to come next, that will affect the economy of the world. 

I WILL SHARE WHEN IM RELEASED TO DO SO....

DCB.

UPDATE SEPTEMBER 8th 2017.

As to my resent post concerning Matthew 24:19.  The scripture says "WOE to those who are pregnant and nursing babies" 

Jesus spoke using analogies, metaphors and parables.

" Woe" means, a cause of sorrow or misfortune. This does not mean that The  Lord does not love mothers and their babies.

This speaks of the timing of God for His will to be fulfilled on earth.

His loving kindness in end time disasters, is a reminder for everyone to prepare and get ready for Christ return.

The metaphor used in the scripture tells us; 

First, as a mother plans for the birth of her unborn child, she will experience the birth pains and discomfort to deliver. That timing cannot be altered, 

THE BABY MUST COME.

Secondly, she wonders, pray and think about the child's future. Daily care, bedroom, clothing, school, college, Success etc.

You cannot take this away from a mother. God used this as a metaphor to prepare us for some sorrowful time on earth beginning now. 

Matthew 24:8. THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS. 

The revelation now is to realize that there is no guaranteed future without God, as His timing of visitation is now.

Even though it will be a sorrowful time on earth, is a stark reminder of His promise to return for those who have prepared themselves. 

Some people will not be able to endure everything that is about to come, they may lose everything, and try to take their own lives. 

THAT IS NOT THE ANSWER.  REPENTANCE AND GETTING READY IS.

The Spirit of the Lord has spoken to me on August 30th. 

He said, 

"I WILL VISIT THE ISLANDS AND THE NATIONS WITH STRENGTH AND FORCE, FOR THEY HAVE SET ASIDE FROM ME".

Here is an eye opener. 

There are 3 hurricanes in the Caribbean right now.

The name IRMA means "sorrow/ Pain"

The Name JOSE means "Jehovah shall Increase"

The third hurricane KATIA means "Pure"

We are experiencing "THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS" MATHEW 24:8.

The world is entering a period of SORROWS that will only INCREASE  in order to produce a PURE BRIDE for the BRIDEGROOM.

Matthew 24:19 says "WOE to those who are pregnant and nursing babies" 

A pregnant woman and a nursing mother can only be hopeful for a good and bright future for their children, however the time has come for the birth pains that will produce children for God.

A WORD TO THE WISE AT HEART.

It is amazing to see and hear how many people in Houston are complaining about their situation.

Angry mothers are cursing at the reporters in front of their children, not realizing that the camera is their opportunity to get more help from people around the country.

While there are those who are thankful for their rescue from strangers, many are blaming the local authorities for not coming to their rescue fast enough or giving them a better alternative.

Let's face it, everyone in Houston is affected in some way by this catastrophe.

Blaming someone should not be anybody's first response after being rescued, but thankfulness and gratitude just for being alive.

Too many people live their lives believing that in time of danger, some agency of government suppose to show up immediately and make their situation go away. 

Well, I hope after this experience, lessons learned.

We all have the responsibility to prepare for impending danger and not live carelessly thinking that tomorrow is promised with all the good things we enjoy.

More hurricanes are coming, more earthquakes, more tornados, more fires, yes and even more people shooting guns in public places.

We cannot live in fear, but we can and should take responsibility for ourselves and families.     HERE IS A CHECK LIST:---

Love God and serve others.

Pray daily and teach your children to do the same.

Deny yourself some extra things and put away some cash.

Put away some extra dry imperishable food.

Don't cut yourself off from family.

Teach your children the basics of life.

Stop complaining.

Be ready for whatever comes and stop believing the government has your back.

A SPECIAL GIFT

Having lived a few short years in eternity on planet earth, and having encountered some very interesting personalities; I decided to pray for the gift of understanding all minds.

Just imagine if you had this gift, every act of unusual behavior would keep you calm and peaceful.

You would understand those who throw rocks at the moon and those who wouldn't allow you to merge onto the highway but speed up and try to squeeze you off the road.

Well, I'm praying really hard for it.

With this gift, you cannot trust anyone, but you must be on guard .

Jesus had this gift.

"But Jesus didn't trust them, because he knew human nature,

He knew the heart (mind) of all men"

John 2:24,25.

I need occasional access to the highway, but it seems like I keep trying to get on while others lay claim to that part on the road and I'm invading their space.

I'm praying to understand their brain function.

This will be an astounding accomplishment in my life. 

I will never be upset nor scratch my head, just smiling nodding and waving as I drive. 👋👋👋🚙😇😇😎. Gifted.

HOUSTON NOW

Houston, a city of six million people is virtually shut down.

Hurricane Harvey has flooded from hotels to churches, usually places of refuge.

Homes are underwater, long lines for gasoline for those whose vehicles that are not submerged and supermarkets are out of supplies.

In less than a week, the nation's forth largest city is paralyzed and under seized by water.

We have to take a look at life differently, this could have been any city anywhere.

People need to be prepared in the best way they can. 

HERE IS A LIST FOR YOU TO CONSIDER.

First, love your neighbors.

Treat people the way you would like to be treated.

Do good to others always.

Be kind to one another.

Learn to share when you have and others lack

Don't be prejudice.

Don't be proud and high-minded.

Say " Hello and Good morning " to your neighbors or at least wave.

Keep dry cereal and can milk in your closets

Always have peanut butter, sardines and sealed crackers stored.

Start a relationship with your Maker today.

Pray.

DCB.

Violence is the absence of kindness and patience. It is expressed anger at its fullest and the bottom level of all communication.

lack of love in the heart produces violence.

Our world is deteriorating by violence which was the cause of the first flood. 

Genesis 6:13. 

Though there is a covenant for no more floods, a world of violence will not go unpunished.

To have a spirit of opulence, is to be totally unrestricted in the mind.

To be unrestricted in the mind does not mean to neglect the reality of your present situation waiting for a sudden change in your finance. It is not about money, but mental freedom, as to be free from your present shortfalls not allowing the situation to control your life.

Example, if you desire a thing, the moment you think about it, your mind will release thoughts based upon your ability of whether you can afford it or not. The pattern of your thinking is already locked up in your mind. You can only believe and receive by the pattern of your thoughts.

I meet so many people who will not think of a vacation for ten seconds, their mind will immediately release all the practiced thoughts of why they can never go on a vacation. Whether a simple road trip or getting away to a different country, it doesn't matter, they cannot imagine it could happen. Their lifestyle is solely based on money and not freedom from restrictions. 

Money is important but lack of money should not become your prison with a warden controlling your life daily.

Everything comes to us first in a thought. In thought, we can accept it or deny it.

we believe it or doubt it. Go after it or leave it alone.

You are bound to and by your thoughts. 

It is necessary therefore to seek freedom of mind by practicing thoughts that are positive and beneficial to yourself. If you don't change the way you think, no one else can do it for you.

Opulence is the nature of your Creator.

EVERYONE NEEDS THE HOLY SPIRIT.

The Holy Spirit, known as the third person of The trinity, is the helper The Father gave to us to have relationship with Him and fellowship with one another.

Without the Holy Spirit, we will not be able to understand all that the Father has designed for us to enable us to live a life on earth with love, joy, peace from day to day against all the adversities.

We need the Holy Spirit in our lives to guide us in His will and purpose every day. We cannot live without Him as our earthly man always desires to do things that are contrary.

Pray to the Father and earnestly ask Him to fill you with His precious gift of the Holy Spirit. You will have a better understanding of His love and mercies towards us all.

God owns the Lunar, the Solar and the Cellular systems.

He created them before the world was ever formed.

When God placed the moon in the sky, He set it as His time instrument for seasons.

It takes the moon 27.322 days to go around the earth once.

We always see the same side of the moon from earth even though it is in orbit.

If you want to know the seasons, look at the moon.

From the beginning of life on earth the moon has guided mankind to our benefit. When to sow and harvest are tell- tale signs in the moon.

The moon give us light at night.

The moon tells the beasts in the forest to move and creep about.

The moon tells us about the tides.

The moon is a time clock that  shows many more signs and will also tell us the season of the return of Christ.  Matthew 24:29.

DCB.

The greatest need of every human being is love and to be loved. When this need is not fulfilled, the human soul wrestles with the flesh and mind longing for love's satisfaction.
The desire only grows and are consumed with other unfulfilled things ;things that feels good but not the true love it was created for.

A TIME TO RETURN, REPENT AND RENEW.

The United States of America has experienced a major transformation in our democracy with many changes taking place daily. Whether health insurance, the economy or our security, some citizens are concerned, while others are perplexed.

There is something about to take place that is greater than what we expected.

We are about to end the first half of 2017 in a few days. 

The next six months is a time for preparation. Preparation for believers around the world. Please do not put this off nor take this lightly. Your children and love ones need to take heed.

It is time to Return, Repent and Renew.

If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, this message is for you. I have just declared a season of fasting for our local assembly.

This is not the normal season that we are accustomed to, this is more serious.

Keep your spiritual eyes on the Lord and your natural eyes on Israel.

Israel final restoration was prophesied by the prophet Hosea. Read Hosea 14:1-9.

This speaks of Repentance and Restoration ( Renewal).

Share with your family, friends and other believers. Take this as a warning because of the times we are living in.

This is not a doomsday message, but a time to focus on what really matters and not the noisy distractions of worldliness.

Declare your own fast now for the next Six months.

Break the hold of prayerlessness and distraction from prayer.

Break the hold of social media bondage.

Break the hold of self righteousness.

Break the hold of religion.

Break the hold of judging others.

Break the hold of self pride.

Break the hold of intellectualism.

Break the hold of consuming what is destroying your body.

And finally, break the hold of demonic activity over your life and family.

As we awake each day to a new  sunrise introducing us to a new day, we are reminded of God's grace and His love for His creation.

He has made redemption for fallen mankind by the blood of the Lamb.

Our responsibility is to share this good news of redemption to everyone so all God's children can live in peace, love and joy knowing that their sins are forgiven.

We are not to condemn nor constantly categorize man's sins, as to which sin is more severe than the other. "ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS SIN" 1John 5:17.

I believe what grieves the heart of God the most, is VIOLENCE.

From the very first murder written in scripture of a brother murdering his brother; Genesis 4., God intervene in that violent act immediately.

Two chapters after in Genesis 6, God destroyed all flesh due to the rampant violence that was spreading on the earth.

Exodus 20:13, the sixth commandment says," Thou shall not murder".

Psalm 11:5, The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love VIOLENCE he hates with a passion.

Jesus taught to love one another and to do good to each other.

The parable of the Good Samaritan was one of His most important lessons.

Luke 10:25-37.

Jesus Himself, being arrested by a group of violent soldiers, ordered his disciple to put up his sword and do not respond with violence.

He suffered and died a violent death by the hands of violent people so that violence shall be abolished from the earth through repentance and forgiveness.

The world has not embraced God's redemptive plan, but continue to advocate violence from the highest offices of leadership and governments.

There is an increase of violence around the world, also violent acts are posted on social media daily.

Matthew 24:37. "AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH."

The sign of Noah is upon us now, and the increase of violence is the sign of God's time clock for intervention and judgement.

VIOLENT ACTS ARE NOT ENTERTAINMENT, VIOLENT ACTS GRIEVES THE HEART OF GOD.

Accusations

THE LATEST ACCUSATIONS OF JESUS BY HIS ENEMIES.

He was born out of fornication

He was referred to as a bastard.

He was a friend of sinners

He ate like a glutton

He was always drinking wine.

He was not Abraham's  seed.

He was a blasphemer.

He was an imposter.

He worked with the ruler of demons.

He was Beelzebub.

He was out of His mind.

He was a false prophet.

He was not the Christ. 

He was not The King Of Israel.

He was in love with Mary Magdalene.

However, they did not accuse Him of willfully dying on the cross for all sinners.

If you believe in Jesus as the Son of God who came to earth to save us all, don't let accusations of others deter your mission in life.

LOVE DAY

Today Love is being expressed in many different ways.

Many send and receive gifts, flowers, chocolates, messages and some will enjoy a hearty dinner with the love of their heart, friend or relative.

Love  definitely is an act or expression of kindness from someone's heart towards another.

Occasionally couples may question each other devotion of love by an inaction or unkind words spoken.

Tears and sadness are often the case when someone is hurt by the one they love.

As humans, our understanding of love never reaches the top bar, as God holds that record. Husbands and wives may argue and make each other angry at times questioning their love for each other.

God has never said,  I will stop loving you or I don't love you as much as I did.

His love is perfect, and we can never offend Him enough for Him to quit loving us.

Though we are corrected, His love will never cause us to loose hope.

This is why the scripture refers to God's love as PERFECT.

HAPPY DAY WITH GOD'S LOVE.
