The prophets [inspired men] prophesy [speak/sing by inspiration, discourse, prediction] falsely [untruthfully, as a sham, deceitfully, without cause, lying and in vanity], and the priests [chief ruler, principle one, as acting priest] bear rule [tread down, subjugate, have dominion and prevail to reign] by their means [power, presumptions, ministry, ordinances, works, and force]; and my people love [have affections toward] so: and what will you do [apply, exercise, practice, execute, commit, be, perform, or maintain], in the end [future, latter time] thereof?”
Jeremiah 6:13-14
“For from the least [diminutive in size, small, littlest] of them even unto the greatest [older, insolent— extravagant, proud] of them every one is given to [performing] covetousness [plunder, gains— usually unjust, dishonesty, lucre (filthy gains), profits]; and from the prophet [prophetically, or generally inspired man] even unto the priest [officiating, chief or principal officer; officer— person holding position of command or authority, holder of public ecclesia/church office] every one deals falsely [untruthfully, a sham, deceitfully in falsehood, lying vainly and wrongfully].
They have healed [mended/stitched] also —the hurt [ruin and affliction, bruised vexation] of my people [flock]— slightly, saying— Peace, peace [welfare, prosperity, health, favor and safety] —when there is no peace [welfare, prosperity, health, favor or safety].
Were they ashamed when they had committed this abomination [morally disgusting, abhorrent idolatry]?
Nay —they were not at all ashamed— neither could they blush [be put to shame in reproach]: therefore they shall fall [be cast down, cease, die, be divided out, fail, be judged, perish, overthrown and smited out] among them that fall: at the time that I visit [reckon in remembrance by oversight, govern, rule and judge] them —they shall be cast down [totter and waiver, falter, stumble and faint, decay— and be overthrown], saith the LORD [self existent eternal one— Jehovah].
Thus saith the Lord— Stand [abide, continue, dwell, be employed, endure, established, ordained, raised up, remain, stay and tarry firmly] in the ways [road trodden, course of life, mode of action, custom and manner], and see [discern and gaze upon], and ask [inquire, request and demand, by counsel, earnestly enquiring and obtaining in request]—for the old paths [vanishing, out of mind, eternal, lasting and perpetual paths]— where is the good way —and walk [follow, go, run, journey] therein, and you shall find [acquire] rest [a resting place] for your souls [vitality, bodily— or mentally, contented— your heart, mind, person, will and selves].
But they said [answered and declared]— We will not walk [follow, go, run, journey] therein.”

neither spake [arranged to speak, subdue— was brought under my control, declared, commanded, be a spokesperson, talked with or uttered] I unto them: they prophesy [speak by inspiration, predict or give simple discourse] unto you —a false vision [sight of mentality or revelation] and divination [a lot— portion, speaking and sentencing of witchcraft— enchant, whisper], and a thing of nought [vanity, idolatrous, and of no value] —and of the deceit [privily (confident) fraud (injurious deceit)] of their heart [feelings, will, intellect— center of them— mind, regard, understanding, awares and wisdom].
Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets [generally inspired men] that prophesy [speak by inspiration, predict or give simple discourse] in my name [position (like a pastor, preacher, teacher, prophet, apostle, evangelist, etc)— honor, authority, or character], and I sent them not, yet they say— Sword [drought, cutting, destructive effects and implementation] and famine [hunger, and dearth— scarcity and lack] shall not be in this land; By sword [drought, cutting, destructive effects and implementation] and famine [hunger, and dearth— scarcity and lack] —shall those prophets [generally inspired men] be consumed [wasted, finished, ended].”

What shall I equal to you, that I may comfort you [breath strongly on, in a favorable sense, pity, console, rue and avenge] — O virgin [separated bride] daughter [apple of my eye, branch, company] of Zion?
For your breach [fracture, ruin, dissolution of a dream and vexation] is great like the sea: who can heal [mend, stitch, cure and repair] you?
Your prophets [generally inspired men] have seen [perceived, gazed upon mentally and contemplated with pleasure] —foolish [slimy, frivolity— lack of seriousness, unsavory and untempered] things for you: and they have not discovered [revealed, stripped and made bear] iniquity [perversity, moral evil, mischief of sin] —to turn away [retreat from, and deliver, requite from] your captivity [exile, prisoners, and former state of prosperity]; but I have seen [gazed mentally and perceived, contemplated with pleasure, and had vision and beholding of] your false [evil, destructive, morally ruinous, idolatry, uselessness and vanity of lying] burdens [present mess of tribute, reproach] and causes of banishment [seduction].
All that pass by —clap [vomit] hands [power] at you; they hiss [shrill, whistle, call and scorn] and wag their head [shake their head] at the daughter [apple of my eye, branch, company] of Jerusalem, saying— Is this the city [place guarded by waking watch, encampment or post] that men call —The perfection [complete, whole, entirely consumed] of beauty —The joy [delight] of the whole earth?”

Word from the Lord
____________________________
God said to me…
“The zoom meeting is highly PROVOCATIVE; it will trigger those who have things I have yet to root up, from within. If my children can be triggered, or in fear or anxiety about something— I intend by my mercies to make it known.
I provoked many in the form of Yahshua the Messiah— and most ran in fear— they feared so greatly they put him to death.
I intend to uproot all that is not of me, and FEAR— is not of me, nor of my children, so it is my LOVE— to point it out, where it resides within my temples (vessels).
I turn the tables of hearts, I flip the places of defilement— to show the impostor spirits that leave counsels there in my chosen vessels.
I am a jealous God and Father, and Bridegroom— and I will desire to show my children that another has gained the heart of them— and wish to reconcile them unto myself, and myself only.
Fear, doubt and unbelief have NO PART in my children; I ask not to put your confidences in man— but I DO EXPECT you to put CONFIDENCE in ME, within— and another you will not counsel with.
Discern by my Spirit, honor my Spirit, grieve not my Spirit— for I AM SPIRIT; I speak to my children by Spirit— and my Spirit is to be trusted.
We must weigh, and we must weigh with just balances— my Spirit lines up with scripture— and where my Spirit is honored— there I am in the midst.”
Matthew 18:20
“For where two or three are gathered together in my name— there am I in the midst of them.”
____________________________
The Holy Spirit led prayer session to enter the secret place with the Lord, and unto the Father; with regard to meditating on the ‘Word of God,’ (he is the words of God, and he is a person) and the Holy Spirit, Yahshua led, taking the hand of God— spiritual walk— unto the Father, through the Door (which is Christ), led by the Son himself.
I was approached by one, following the Holy Spirit led zoom meeting, pertaining to the Father’s desire to receive his children into the secret place— the place of intimate communion (communication) with him; for his children, and there were concerns.
Concerns— relevant or important, interesting or involving one’s self in, worry— make anxious, affairs or issues; root definition— late Middle English: from French concerner or late Latin concernere —in medieval Latin ‘be relevant to’, from con- (expressing intensive force) + cernere ‘sift, discern’.
Concerns: emotionalism, envisioning, speaking to/praying the Holy Spirit of God, and seeing a demonic portal visually.
He said— “There are many having issue coming to me in the secret place— to hear from me— either in concepts and words conveyed, or visual experience with my Spirit.”
He is Spirit, first and foremost, and has told me on several occasions— “Janet, they must meet me, know me, and worship me in SPIRIT and in TRUTH; and that means they must become spiritual beings, worshiping me in spiritual terms, as well as from the truth (founded in the written word of God).”
Spiritual beings operate from the unseen; they operate from that which is opposed to the material carnal, and spiritual beings and children of God— must meet God in spiritual ways, and founded in the written word of God.
He said— “Janet, many are swimming in the written text of the words of God— but they do not know how to ‘walk in the Spirit,’ with the Holy Spirit of God; they are fearful, or ignorant and unlearned.”
_____________
So, he asked me to GET OUT OF THE WAY, and allow ‘his’ Spirit— to lead with Christ— the children to him, in meditative prayer.
The word ‘meditate,’ frightened some people; which perplexed me, as it’s written throughout scripture over and again— and his children practiced it: contemplating, musing, imagining, muttering, discerning and ruminating on ‘it,’ or rather— HIM.
He asked for the ‘trigger’ words to be used SPECIFICALLY, and EMPHATICALLY, for he said…
“Janet, IF THEY CAN BE ‘triggered,’ by a word used in scripture— it is by the love of God to point out that there is FEAR around that word, and it is a BLOCK in the life of that child. For what is to FEAR— of a word, especially a scriptural word??”
Every word the devil can use— was a word given to us by the Creator first and foremost— the Words of God; for he is the creator of the spoken and written words in this world: all of them.
Another word he used was ‘ascend,’ and it triggered as well; and yet, once again it is spoken of over and again in scripture meaning— ‘to come up higher;’ we can say that, but not ASCEND, or DESCEND??
H5927 – Ascend
Hebrew: עלה
Transliteration: ‛âlâh
Pronunciation: aw-law'
Definition: A primitive root; to ascend— intransitively be high or active mount up; used in a great variety of {senses} primary and {secondary} literally and figuratively: arise up. (cause to) ascend up, at {once} break the day, bring up, carry up, cast up + show climb up, (cause to make to) come up, dawn, exalt, excel, fetch up, make to go, grow, increase, lift, light, mount up, raise, recover, restore, make to rise up, shoot forth, begin to spring up, stir up and work.

“Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts— you double minded.”
The fearful and unbelieving— are the first two mentioned— in Revelation 21:8— who will have their part in the lake of fire.

We should not be afraid of a ‘word’ found in scripture, and taken IN CONTEXT; and if we are— he will point it out, poking a wound or trauma that is unhealed in us— and therein is the love of God.
We should not be AFRAID— period; for that is ‘another’ spirit altogether. We trust in our God.
We petition our God, and we believe he hears us, and we waver not about that— and in that— we will receive our requests.
Concerns from the zoom call: emotionalism, envisioning (visualizing), speaking to/praying the Holy Spirit of God, and seeing a demonic portal visually— as one from the zoom contacted me with concerns.
_____________
Emotionalism…
Emotionalism— a tendency to regard things emotionally— undue indulgence in or display of emotion.
Are we NOT to engage our God with ALL OUR HEART/soul??
And if so, is not the Mind (thoughts, reasonings, pondering, meditating, principles and conduct of) part of SOUL/HEART, the center of our being??
Are we NOT to engage our emotions, and are emotions not part of the SOUL/HEART, center of our being??
And if scripture states— in Jeremiah 29:12-13—
“Then shall you call upon me, and you shall go and pray unto me— and I will hearken unto you. And you shall seek me, and find me— when you shall search for me with all your heart.”
…and in…
Matthew 22:36-38
“Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
Jesus said unto him— Thou shalt love the Lord your God with all your heart [thoughts, feelings (mind); middle], and with all your soul [breath of spirit, and principles], and with all your mind [deep thought or faculties (contemplation/meditation) of the mind or disposition, by implication— its exercising, imagination and understanding].
This is the first and great commandment.”
…ought we not obey the holy scriptures with our emotions and mind, vision, or imaging… with, and unto God??
He did say ‘all.’
________________
G1271 – Mind
Greek: διάνοια
Transliteration: dianoia
Pronunciation: dee-an'-oy-ah
Definition: From G1223 and G3563; deep thought —properly the faculty (mind or its disposition) by implication its exercise: imagination, mind, understanding.
KJV Usage: mind (9x), understanding (3x), imagination (1x).
_________________
Envisioning…
Envision— imagine possibility— visualize, picture, see in the mind’s eye.
Visualization— mental image, imagine, make something visual to the eye.
Imagine— form a mental image or concept of; root definition— Middle English: from Old French imaginer, from Latin imaginare ‘form an image of, represent’ and imaginari ‘picture to oneself’, both from imago, imagin- ‘image’.
1 Chronicles 29:17-19
“I know also, my God, that you try the heart, and have pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart— I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy your people— which are present here— to offer willingly unto you.
18 O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, our fathers— keep this forever in the imagination [form and conception— that is purpose, the framing— the thing framed, imagination, mind’s work] of the thoughts [intention and plans, imaginations, devices] of the heart [most interior place, where we bethink, find awares and understanding] of your people— and prepare their heart unto you:
19 And give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart— to keep your commandments, your testimonies, and your statutes— and to do all these things— and to build the palace, for which I have made provision.”
________________
Are we not rebuilding the tabernacle of David, in the last days?
And does this not include the heart after God?
And does the heart, the FULL HEART and SOUL of man, after God and his heart— use ALL OF HIS HEART UNTO GOD— including his emotions and imaging??
______________
Speaking to/praying/petitioning God, unto or through the Holy Spirit of God…
I promised to take it to the Lord, fully discern all that was brought up, and heed the Holy Spirit of God, as he brought forth the insight, the discernment, counsel and wisdom of the Lord.
Response from God— through the Holy Spirit of God— from our Father:
Honoring the Holy Spirit of God; 1 of the 3 fold Godhead; as the Holy Spirit is most humble of God— he comes not to represent himself, but…
John 16:13
“Howbeit when he— the Spirit of truth, is come— he will guide you into all truth [: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear— that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.”
And so, the Holy Spirit LISTENS to the Father and the Son— and he reiterates that to all of us; he comes not to represent himself— but he Father and the Son.
And the Son came to represent the Father.
So, the Son comes to represent the Father…
The Holy Spirit comes to represent the Father and Son, “that in which he hears,” and who speaks but the Word of God himself?
The Holy Spirit is submissive, humble and reverent: So is the Son, who leads to the Father.
So, we see that the Father sends the Holy Spirit— the Comforter, the Comforter LISTENS to the Word of God, and guides the children, and the Son came to represent the Father: we have a full circle of representation, where the one— represents the other, humbly and in servitude.
Are we not to HONOR, or revere— the FULL GODHEAD??
For they SURELY revere and honor one another, and humbly.

John 14:26
“The Comforter— Holy Ghost— whom my Father will send in my name— he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance– whatsoever I have said to you.”
Luke 4:1
“And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by [bring forth, induce, carry] the Spirit into the wilderness…”
Acts 2:4
“And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost— and began to speak with other tongues— as the Spirit gave them utterance [declared and enunciated plainly, spoke forth].”
1 Corinthians 2:13
“Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches— but which the Holy Ghost teaches [communicates, instructs]; comparing spiritual things, with spiritual.”
1 Corinthians 12:3
“Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God —calls Jesus accursed [banned, or excommunicated]: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord [supreme controller]— but by the Holy Ghost.”
Ephesians 3:4-6
“Whereby, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ… Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men— as it is now revealed, unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit...”
Ephesians 4:30
“And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.”
_______________
And that is the intention— to honor God, THE FULL GODHEAD, not only one, or two— but all parts/persons of God; Christ the Son honors the Father and the Spirit (the Comforter— his a person), and the Father honors the Spirit (Comforter, and Spirit of Truth bringer), and the Spirit of Truth/Comforter— honors the Word of God, the Son and the Father: bringing us full circle back around again, in humility and servitude, one of each other.
This is my intent in this world, and hereafter as well, and was in the zoom meeting; to GET OUT OF THE WAY, and usher them all to the forefront of my being, my heart, my FULL soul.
Praying the LORD GOD HIMSELF— and asking, believing, that we shall receive that in which we ask for; which was for the Holy Spirit of God to lead the prayer and meditation on and with God: the Most High over all others.
Who led us to the Good Shepherd, the Door, the Bridegroom and Savior— who led us to the Father, through HIMSELF— the Door unto the Father.
I refuse to shun, or not honor God in all ways— and he asked me to get to know his Spirit about a decade ago, because HE IS SPIRIT, and he said— “most churches (which are called out ones), do not honor my Spirit, nor let my Spirit lead them.”
And that crushed me; I told him I will give him what he desires— and that was for me to allow the Holy Spirit to bring me ‘into’ all truth: to raise me as a child, pointing me toward the Word of God (he’s a person, Messiah), and the Son— points me back to Father: and in that— I honor all the Godhead, FULLY.
And Messiah— is the Godhead, ‘bodily,’ meaning we see him in the physicality of God, embodying the Spirit, the Father in him through the Spirit, who is sent of the Father— and we must meet God in ‘spirit’ form now, through The Holy Spirit of God— sent of the Father: and we must honor him, worship him— in Spirit and in Truth.
Desire to know your Father God— meet him in the Spirit, the Holy Spirit, for he sends him to us— the Comforter [intercessor and consoler, advocate] himself, who listens to the Words of God, or the Word of God— and represents him so.
Colossians 2:9
“For in him dwells [is housed permanently, residing in and inhabiting] all the fullness [completely full in container] of the Godhead [divinity]— bodily [physically].”
John 4:24
“God is a Spirit [current of air, breath or breeze— a rational soul, vital principle mental disposition— Holy Spirit— spiritual mind]: and those who worship him —must worship [kiss, fawn over, prostrate oneself in homage and do reverence to, in adoration of] him in spirit [current of air, breath or breeze— a rational soul, vital principle mental disposition— Holy Spirit— spiritual mind] and in truth [verity— true principle or belief, of fundamental importance].”
Fundamental— forming a necessary base or core— of central importance, affecting or relating to the essential nature of something, a central or primary rule (ruler) or principle (principle one) on which something is based; root definition— late Middle English: from French fondamental, or late Latin fundamentalis, from Latin fundamentum, from fundare ‘to found’.
The Spirit of God has been brooding over us all along; he is the power, the potentate [a monarch or ruler, late Middle English: from Latin potentatus ‘dominion’, from potent- ‘being able or powerful’ (see potent)] of the Godhead; he empowers the Son, and comes of the Father; I will honor him, as God tells me…
“He is the ‘guts’ or interior of God— the essential and primary essence of God.”
Essential— absolutely necessary— extremely important, fundamental or central to the nature of something or someone, absolutely NECESSARY; root definition— Middle English, in the sense ‘in the highest degree’: from late Latin essentialis, from Latin essentia (see essence).
Essence— the intrinsic nature or indispensable quality of something, especially something abstract, that determines its character; a property or group of properties of something without which it would not exist or be what it is, critically important; root definition— late Middle English: via Old French from Latin essentia, from esse ‘be’.
______________
Seeing a demonic portal…
Father said to me…
“Who saw this demonic portal? What spirit were they operating out of? Was fear involved? Was unbelief involved? Did they bring it into the meeting?”
I said I would ask him, and he often answers me with questions that will cause me to engage him more, and use his mind; which we were using in the prayer session he was leading— if we had Christ as the head of us, and using the mind of Christ.
In those questions lie the answers to what we see, and why.
What spirit was being entertained?
If unbelief, fear and doubt are stronghold spirits we deal with on a regular basis, and we don't abandon all in confidence of the Holy Spirit’s leading— as he brings us ‘into’ all truth, and leads us…
We will bring with us what those demonic spirits offer.
I myself did not see a demonic portal, nor was I working with the demonic, or paying worship, nor mind to the lesser beings— I was minded, singled eyed upon our Holy Father, his Holy Spirit, and what the Son of God was doing, showing, and offering.
I am not led of a fearful spirit, I do believe he leads me, I do not doubt that— ESPECIALLY when I have prayed him, honored him, placed him at the forefront, hedged it all in scripturally with the Word of God himself; I then sit back, allow the Holy Spirit to lead, and wait confidently and expectantly that he will.
We should weigh all things, but we should weigh them biblically— not emotionally, or superficially; we should be able to back it all from the Word of God, and by faith expect the Most High One to be FAITHFUL— and watch over and lead his children— via his Holy Spirit.
I WELCOME all questions and concerns, I WELCOME using the Holy Spirit led (mind and perspective of Christ) discernment; he said this would be the year that would require work in discernment.
I LOVE DISCERNMENT— for without the perspective and counsels of God in our lives— we go astray; and in going astray— we entertain other spirits, counsels and leaders in us.
But we must discern from a place of CONFIDENCE IN GOD; a place where we TRUST HIM, that he will have our best interest at hand, and he is FAITHFUL to be RELIED UPON.
It was not myself in every vessel leading them, nor was it I giving the visuals to each and every person— but it was in WHOM THEY WERE TRUSTING IN; and if doubt and unbelief, as well as fear was being entertained— it was another, or others at the helm of that ship.
Discerning the spirits in ‘humans,’ as that should be the first place we discern— in ourselves— begins with what attitude, conduct, and demeanor is the ‘leading’ of that person swimming in??
Is it scriptural, in context, and was the Holy Most High God honored??
If so, do you believe he’s HIGH ABOVE ALL PRINCIPALITY AND POWERS??
Because if so, one can confidently trust he will guide, lead, protect/hedge in, and RULE OVER ALL OTHER principalities and powers.
He asked me if all things were created by him, and if he has dominion over them all?
I said— “yes, you own the earth and the fullness thereof, and are the creator and owner of all that is created.”
He said— “Then am I not ruler over demonic visions, demonic portals and all place they would lead to?”
To which I said— “Yes sir.”
And he said, “Am I not the ALMIGHTY one to be relied upon? And do I not use all things, both light and dark unto my purposes?”
To which I said— “Yes, you have used evil kings, even satan to do your very own purposes through, and in, this earth— like the story of Job, or judgements coming in under evil rule— when your children sow wickedly.”
He said— “Then what would you be afraid of, and what can I not use or show, unto my purposes?”
I could not think of any reason to fear— ANYTHING, nor could I come up with one thing God is not allowed to show, use or purpose unto himself that is created.
I encourage us to consider the attitude, principles and conduct of our hearts to determine what is exalted in there: if it’s fear, anxiety, doubt, unbelief, trepidation toward anything— it is not of Father.
He said— “If I wanted to take to hell, to see hell, and report on it— I can use whatever portal or window I so choose to; would therefore fear??”
And I said— “No sir, for I am with YOU; and you are FAR ABOVE all principalities and powers, and can use whatever you so choose at any time— for all that exists in the created realm— is YOURS.”
I encourage us to look within, and see what is operating in there, and examine our hearts— for they will exalt things other than God, and if we are not diligent with the Holy Spirit to dump it all out and examine it— then it can harbor other reasonings, and other perceptions— from ‘another’ spirit, or spirits.
There is NO FEAR IN PERFECT LOVE, and he gave us NOT A SPIRIT OF FEAR— no matter what we see, or hear, sense or experience— NO FEAR; but instead— a spirit of Power, Love, and a Sound Mind: security in his Faithfulness.

Practicing Discernement
________________________________
James 2:1-
“My brethren— have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory— with respect of persons.”
___________
This is stating— view and treat all equally, no partiality based upon superficial observations or preferences.
Respect— a feeling of deep admiration for someone or something elicited by their abilities, qualities, or achievements— agree, or recognize to abide by; root definition— late Middle English: from Latin respectus, from the verb respicere ‘look back at, regard’, from re- ‘back’ + specere ‘look at’.
___________
2-4 “For if there come unto your assembly— a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel— and there come in also a poor man, in vile raiment; and you have respect to him who wears the gay clothing— and you say unto him— Sit here, in a good place; and say to the poor— Stand yourself over there, or sit here under my footstool: Are you not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?”
___________
Do we do this?
If we see them successful, wealthy, glamorously dressed and articulate— do you trust them, and adhere to/cater to and follow them?
Do you wish to be known by them, do you regard them above others who are less articulate with words, or less lavish in dress or accommodations?
For this is the carnal man who does such things— and this is dangerous to live carnally minded, meaning— carnaly focused, and with sight or perceptions inclined unto carnality, or upon the lower realm and way; we will see this and why— further down in James, chapter 2.
___________
5 “Hearken, my beloved brethren— Hath not God chosen the poor of this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to them that love him?”
___________
Why do we think angels show up as homeless looking people, or maimed and infirmed/injured, handicapped and more— so often??
Because we are being tested in those moments, as to what resides in truth— within our hearts; and unto whom are we finding our perceptions and spiritual sight through.
Discernment is crucial— and discernment comes from the Holy Spirit above; we can only discern properly the spirits behind the people— when we view people through his ‘sight,’ and eyes, from his mind and head.
Sight— the faculty or power of seeing, a person’s view or considerations, the area or distance within which someone can see or something can be seen, a thing that one sees or that can be seen, a device on a gun or optical instrument used for assisting a person's precise aim or observation, manage to see or observe someone or something— catch an initial glimpse of; root definition— Old English (ge)sihth ‘something seen’, of West Germanic origin; related to Dutch zicht and German Gesicht ‘sight, face, appearance’.
Perception— the ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through the senses, a way of regarding, understanding, or interpreting something— a mental impression, intuitive understanding and insight, process— including memory— by which an organism becomes aware of, and interprets, external stimuli; root definition— late Middle English: from Latin perceptio(n- ), from the verb percipere ‘seize, understand’ (see perceive).
Perceive— become aware or conscious of something— come to realize or understand, become aware of something by the use of one of the senses, especially that of sight, interpret or look on someone or something in a particular way— regard as; root definition— Middle English: from a variant of Old French perçoivre, from Latin percipere ‘seize, understand’, from per- ‘entirely’ + capere ‘take’.
___________
14 “What does it profit— my brethren— though a man say he has faith, and has not works? Can faith save him?
If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, and one of you says unto them— Depart in peace, be you warmed and filled; notwithstanding you give them not those things which are needful to the body; what does it profit (them or you)?
Even so faith [persuasion, moral convictions, religious truth, reliance on Christ, and truth itself]— if it has not works [toiling in actions]— is dead [as a corpse] —being alone [not joined].
Yes, a man may say— You have faith, and I have works: show me your faith without your works— and I will show you my faith by my works [toiling actions].
You believe that there is one God; you do well: the devils also believe [have faith with respect, credit, entrusting and committing to], and tremble [bristle and shudder]. But will you know— O vain [empty] man— that faith without works is dead?
Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
See how faith —wrought [be a fellow worker, cooperating] with his works [toiling actions], and by works [toiling actions]— was faith [truth itself, assurance, conviction and persuasion] made perfect [complete, accomplished, consummated in character, consecrated and fulfilled]?
And the scripture was fulfilled which said— Abraham believed [had faith with respect, credit, entrusting and committed himself to] God, and it was imputed [concluded and counted] unto him for righteousness [equity of character or actions— equal to, justified]: and he was called the Friend [fond and friendly associate or neighbor] of God.
You see then how— that by works— a man is justified [rendered, shown and regarded as innocent— free and righteous], and not by faith [truth itself, assurance, conviction and persuasion] only [or merely].
Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by (her) works, when she had received the messengers— and had sent them out another way?
For as the body without the spirit is dead— so faith without works is dead also.”

And you will know them by their fruit
__________________________________________
[These verses come after— will your Father give you a serpent for a fish, if you ask for a fish?]
Matthew 7:14-20
“Strait is the gate, and narrow is the way which leads unto life— and few there be that find it.
Beware of false prophets— who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
You shall know them by their fruits (produce).
Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Even so every good tree —brings forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree— brings forth evil fruit.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, nor can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Every tree that brings not forth good fruit— is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Wherefore by their fruits —you shall know them.”
_________________
The devils believe, and tremble— even satan heard from God; but you will know them— by the fruit of the ‘spirit’ that works in them.
Can you discern the spirit within??
Because we need to know the authentic, and operate by his Spirit (the Holy Spirit of God), become one with him— to KNOW the other spirits, the impostors, the illegitimate of God— when they present.
Know the Authentic One— know the impostors.
And to know the Authentic One— we must know him, and worship him, in Spirit and Truth— and by Faith trusting in him, with assurance, conviction, persuasion— truth itself; and not entertain ‘another’ within the throne room, and vessel of God.
Who is our heart’s faith in?
What does he look like, and who did he say he is?
Do we believe scripture and what he said?
Are we operating, HONESTLY, believing he is faithful and to be trusted?
Have we examined our hearts to see what voice speaks there?
What attitude, conduct and demeanor does it operate from?
Does it align with scripture?
Does it speak fearfully, in doubt or of unbelief?
Because we must TRY, or WEIGH the spirits— and believe not them all when they counsel us within; but instead— take all things to the Lord, and trust in him.
But without that faith— that trusting in him, with assurance, conviction, persuasion— unto truth itself; it is impossible to please him.
Psalm 118:8-9
“It is better to trust in the Lord —than to put confidence in man; It is better to trust in the Lord —than to put confidence in princes.”
Don’t trust man— but you ARE required to trust God, and to weigh the spirit in the man as to whether he is in righteousness— which is equitable, equal in character and actions— and at-one-ment, in agreement with the Holy God, his scriptures and Word— and is a son led of his Spirit.
To do that— you must know the Authentic One yourself; so you recognize HIS FRUITS, and whether they abide with the individual who claims to be his and led of him.
