The Day Has Arrived

 Well, I knew it would happen! I did not want to believe this day would come, but, I knew it would. Understand that I fully believe what a person does or does not do is between that person & our Lord. Especially in matters that fall into the gray areas. The matter I speak of is the jab. Many Churches are taking a stance, no jab, no entry into the Church building. I am old school, I believe anyone with any illness should come forward to the alter, the “elders” anoint & pray over the person to be healed! I also understand the Holy Spirit has been pushed aside in far too many Churches & the anointing does not flow much anymore. BUT, I for one still believe that Jesus IS still on the Throne in Heaven & IS still in the healing business! I still believe the Holy Spirit IS still moving where He IS allowed to!! I still believe there IS healing virtue in the anointing! Before you naysayers start spewing that I do not believe Covid is real, I know it is as I personally know people who died from it! But, I know this, no matter how strong Covid is, the Holy Spirit IS stronger, if He is allowed to work His Wonder-Working Power against it! Where has faith gone? So many, far too many, their faith is stronger for what Covid can do, NOT what the Holy Spirit can/will do!! Will Jesus find faith here on earth among His people?

Luke 8:7-8 (AMP) And will not [our just] God defend andavenge His elect [His chosen ones] who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay [in providing justice] on their behalf? I tell you that He will defend andavenge them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find [this kind of persistent] faith on the earth?”

How can the sick call on the elders if they are not allowed in Church? I have anointed & prayed over the sick in Churches, in homes, In hospitals, in businesses, over the phone/internet, on the street too, but that anointing is oh so powerful during worship in the alter! Allowing ALL to see the wonder-working Power Of our mighty God! The opportunity for many to receive healing is during Church only! Let us not take that away!!

James 5:14-16 (AMP) Is anyone among you sick? He must call for the elders (spiritual leaders) of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed andrestored. The heartfelt andpersistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power].

We Will Give An Account

 As we walk through these End Times, we should have concerns. Concerns about ourselves. Some at the top of the list should be: How am I treating others? Am I speaking ridicule against them? Am I gossiping about others? Am I judge mental & degrading concerning others? These are serious “heart” issues! They reflect the love walk we are on! Jesus takes these very serious! There will come a time when we will stand before Jesus, we will be required to give answer to these things! How will you respond? There will be no acceptable excuses for our actions, our words or even our thought that reflect poorly on others! The proper action is be performed now, while there is time! We must repent, ask Jesus to forgive us & do it no more! Maybe, if necessary, if you did it directly, go to the person or person & apologize! But now, right now, stop bringing forth the fruit of darkness & bring forth the fruit of the Spirit of Righteousness & Light!!

Romans 14:10-13 (AMP) But you, why do you criticize your brother? Or you again, why do you look down on your [believing] brother orregard him with contempt? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God [who alone is judge]. For it is written [in Scripture],

“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me,

And every tongue shall give praise to God.”

So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.

Then let us not criticize one another anymore, but rather determine this—not to put an obstacle or a stumbling block ora source of temptation in another believer’s way.

Sin Should Not Be Tolerated

 The tolerance of sin is mind-boggling! The accepting of sin as a Born-Again Christian did not seem conceivable thirty years ago! But today sin is rampant in Churches! Sin is tolerated from pulpits, in fear of offending people! Sin should offend people! Sin should make people sick!! Denominations Ordain sinful people to oversee Churches & preach in pulpits! What a disgrace to people & to Father God in Heaven!! Oh you say, WHAT? The Bible is clear, homosexuality is an abomination to God! Leviticus 18:22

(NKJV) You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It isan abomination. Romans 1:26-28 (NKJV) For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.And even as they did not like to retain God in theirknowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting. There is no place for sin in the Body of Christ! There has been a numbing, a sense of sin not being a big deal! No shame! Once there is no shame, no sick feeling within the Christian, darkness is ruling in that Christian’s life! It is a very frightening place to be! Repent! Repent quickly! Start hating sin again!! Before it is too late!!

Jeremiah 8:12 (NKJV) 

Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination?

No! They were not at all ashamed,

Nor did they know how to blush.

Therefore they shall fall among those who fall;

In the time of their punishment

They shall be cast down,” says the Lord.

Don’t Allow the Old Man To Rise Up

 We, as Born-Again Christians must no longer be in “fashion” with the world. We are new creatures, no longer have the characteristics of the old man! That character has passed away, the new life in Christ has taken hold! But way too many have allowed the features of that old man to creep back in, corrupting that new man! Sin has become more pleasing! Moral decline has taken place! The enemy has gotten a foothold in your life! The time is now, to repent! Shake off that old man, reject sin & walk again as that new creature in Christ rejecting darkness for the Righteousness of Christ!! Do it! Just do it! Before it is too late!

2nd Corinthians 5:17 (AMP) Therefore if anyone is in Christ [that is, grafted in, joined to Him by faith in Him as Savior], he isa new creature [reborn and renewed by the Holy Spirit]; the old things [the previous moral and spiritual condition] have passed away. Behold, new things have come [because spiritual awakening brings a new life].

Stop Dancing With The Devil

 Step right up....Come on in.....Take a look! You will need to know what was, to actually see how far we have fallen. If you know what was, then you realize very quickly, what is seen, looks just like Sodom & Gomorrah! What a mess! Absolutely Positively NO fear of our Wonderful Lord! Just people, many professing as Christians dancing with Devil! Embracing darkness! No care whatsoever of the consequences! Many professing Christians have departed, separated themselves from our Awesome God! There will come a moment in time when the Books are opened, our actions, our words & our deeds will be revealed! Will our Lord say, well done! Step through the pearly gates of Heaven,  welcome home! Or will He say: you have not worked out your Salvation, the lever is pulled, the floor opens, & you drop into the Lake of Fire, eternal damnation! I cannot stress enough, STOP dancing with the Devil, turn around, repent & walk blameless before man & God before it is too late!! Return to your first Love!! Jesus!! Cleave onto Him!! 

Revelation 20:12 (AMP) And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the Bookof Life; and the dead were judged according to what they had done as written in the books [that is, everything done while on earth].

Wolves In Sheep Clothing

 I have been hearing something that is very troubling. I cannot believe this would come from men & women who actually spent time studying the Bible. I for one could never believe such a lie. The very troubling thing I have been hearing is the enemy is too strong, he has overtaken good! The Bibles I read from are very clear in Matthew 16:18, the Gates of Hell shall NOT, will NOT prevail against the Church! The Body of Christ IS & will be Victorious against darkness!! Not sure where this false Doctrine came from, just my guess, Hell itself! We must be studied up in the Word, so we are NOT deceived by those who twist the Scriptures in an attempt to lead as many as possible from our Wonderful Lord! Be on guard! Again I say: Be on guard! Keep the Word close to you, in you & in your mouth! Be on guard, watch for those wolves wearing sheep’s clothing!!

1st John 4:4 (AMP)  Little children (believers, dear ones), you are of God andyou belong to Him and have [already] overcome them [the agents of the antichrist]; because He who is in you is greater than he (Satan) who is in the world [of sinful mankind].

Love Always!

 There is something lacking today. A few years ago I thought that this thing lacking would concern the world itself. But as we have been moving ahead on this End Times Pathway, we can plainly see Time is moving at high speeds. The thing lacking in Churches today, in the Body of Christ, is LOVE. The Bible is clear in this matter, we WILL be known by our “love”. 

John 13:35 (AMP) By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you have love andunselfish concern for one another.

 I really thought in the past that love growing colder & colder pertained to the unsaved, but now also includes the Family of Christ, much of the time seems uncaring for their fellow man! Lawlessness abounds, making hearts hard! 

Matthew 24:12 (AMP) Because lawlessness is increased, the love of most people will grow cold. It is a real shame, when we Christians, loose that care for those in need! The homeless, the hungry, those lacking hope had a place to turn, the government! But they failed. Then the Church! They failed! The Body of Christ! We failed! But their is still time! We CAN make a difference! We can be willing vessels to Christ! Be His feet! Be His hands! Be His mouthpiece! But most of all, be His beacon of LOVE, of MERCY & HOPE onto those beaten down by an uncaring, unloving world! Fulfill your duty as a Born-Again Child Of God & be the vessel, the Light of Christ into a world full of darkness & hate! 

1st John 3:17 (AMP) But whoever has the world’s goods (adequate resources), and sees his brother in need, but has no compassion for him, how does the love of God live in him?

Stay Alert!

 No worries. Business as usual. Just living life day by day. Running through life like a chicken with their head cut off. If you are fitting into the above category, I tell you honesty, YOU ARE ASLEEP! Numb to the signs around YOU! YOU are living your life on a slippery slope! You are treading on a very thin layer of ice! Do not think for one moment you will counted among the five wise virgins when the Trump sounds! Things will get real, real fast for you! You will wake up to the nightmare that comes upon the people of this earth shortly after the Rapture! It will be no walk in the park nor a picnic! Now IS the time to wake up! Turn your eyes to Jesus! Find your Bible & lay hold of it! Pray! There is no timeline, it is a sign line concerning these end times! If you are missing the signs, you will miss the Rapture! Do not be counted with the foolish virgins! Matthew 25:1-13.  Let not the Church Age come to a close & you be left behind to face the terrors of Tribulation!

Mark 13:33-37 (AMP) Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come. It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning— lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.”

Seek Our Lord’s Wisdom

 It is quite a time we are living in. Crazy is the new norm. Fear is rampant. Lies seem to dominate over truth. Much is hidden. Just about everything is unstable. The Church has not risen up to be that lighthouse in the storms of this current upside down world. So many concerns over the injection. Which should be like all things, between God Himself & the person. A side note, the injection is not the mark of the beast, his kingdom has not been brought forth at this moment. Where are the pastors at this time? Why are they not educating their congregations from the pulpit in these matters? This world is unstable, the United States is at its highest level of insanity in history! Folks, we cannot turn to the government for help-they have showed us their song & dance show, pastor of churches seem to be in hiding! It is time to look up! Turn to Jesus! He is the only answer! Here is the truth, we are trying to hold onto to things of this world, ways of this world, that soon will be gone! The ways of this world we have be so in step with, are gone, or going away very shortly! It matters not who is president, the minions have been released. The world we have known has spun 180 degrees! There are things set in place within this country, below this country & around this country that will not be stopped! We must seek our Lord’s direction, His knowledge on these things we are facing in this collapsing world. We must place His wisdom & direction above all these keyboard internet experts! His wisdom, His direction is perfect!

Proverb 3:5-6 (AMP) Trust in andrely confidently on the Lord with all your heart And do not rely on your own insight orunderstanding.

In all your ways know andacknowledge andrecognize Him,

And He will make your paths straight andsmooth [removing obstacles that block your way].

You Will Find Him

 We have a Lord who can be found. It may seem is He far-far away from you at this time. But I tell you He IS near! Ever So-So close! He is waiting for you to reach out for Him! He is not a  hard, uncaring God, but He is full of love & He desires to shower you with that love!! Isaiah 55:6-7 (AMP) Seek the Lord while He may be found; Call on Him [for salvation] while He is near. Let the wicked leave (behind) his way

And the unrighteous man his thoughts; And let him return to the Lord, And He will have compassion (mercy) on him, And to our God,

For He will abundantly pardon. When one truly goes after our Lord. When one seeks Him with all their heart, as determined, like something of this world, actually desires that intimacy with the Lord, by shutting off the desire for worldly things, turning that desire unto the Lord, opening the Bible. Understand, going into the Word of God is THE connection point! You WILL find that intimate relationship you are longing for! Many times it is is a simple matter of shutting off the world & opening the Bible to quench the longing & fulfill the heart!! 

Jeremiah 29:13 (AMP)  Then [with a deep longing] you will seek Me andrequire Me [as a vital necessity] and [you will] find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.

Our God IS A Jealous God

It is no surprise that history repeats itself over & over. We can be surprised, even shocked, when we hear of things or see things! Our God is not moved, He is never shocked nor surprised. Our God though is a jealous God. He takes a very negative stance when His children turn their affection from Him to things of this world! When we place our affection on things of this world, taking away what was His & robbing Him of His first place, in our hearts!  These things of the world we place our attention & affection on, lead us to a dry & empty place in our hearts. The heart desires to be full, we must fill it with the things of God, giving no place for temporal thing to reside for just a short time!  

Jeremiah 2:13 (AMP) 

“For My people have committed two evils: They have abandoned (rejected) Me, The fountain of living water, And they have carved out their own cisterns, Broken cisterns That cannot hold water. We must examine ourselves! We must judge ourselves by the Word of God! Have we set our hearts on the unfulfilling, the empty things of this world? Or have we been nurturing our hearts with the Word of God, with the things of God? We have a jealous God, Who is GREATLY offended to take 2nd place in our lives! 

Exodus 20:3-6 (AMP) “You shall have no other gods before Me.

“You shall not make for yourself any idol, or any likeness (form, manifestation) of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth [as an object to worship]. You shall not worship them nor serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous (impassioned) God demanding what is rightfully and uniquely mine], visiting (avenging) the iniquity (sin, guilt) of the fathers on the children [that is, calling the children to account for the sins of their fathers], to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing graciousness andsteadfast lovingkindness to thousands [of generations] of those who love Me and keep My commandments.

Get Your Zeal Back

 Yup! That is it. We have been missing something. Over looking that thing that has been missing, well, for quite some time. It was there at first. It was an exciting time, for sure! That missing thing? Zealousness! That thing that got us rolling as young In the faith freshly Born-Again Christians. That red hot fire inside us! For the things of Christ! Human age did not factor in. Red hot spirituality knew no carnal age! That red hot fire inside a person, that burning fire to hear, to learn the Word of God! That red hot fire inside made us crave, that addicted that brought us into Church whenever the doors were open! Sunday morning, Sunday night, Tuesday night, Wednesday night! Anytime the doors were open for any opportunity to hear the Word, to worship, to fellowship, to pray & even break bread together! It is time to ask the Lord to give us that fresh fire, that burning desire for the things of Him! Boldly ask Him to give us a fresh zeal, that is it, give us, fresh new uninhibited  zealousness! With that comes the excitement that has slipped away from us over the years, moving that burning zealousness to worldly affections! I say today! I say ask our Father to forgive us for turning our Zealousness to world trash & cleanse us! Then ask for a new zealousness, a fresh fire to burn within us for Godly things! Letting that excitement to flow through us one again! Be quick concerning this! For time is running out quickly! Do not wait, for tomorrow just maybe too late! Yup, that is it, we now need turn our zealousness back & go after our first love! That missing ingredient within our walk of faith!!

Romans 12:9-13 (AMP) Love is to be sincere andactive [the real thing—without guile and hypocrisy]. Hate what is evil [detest all ungodliness, do not tolerate wickedness]; hold on tightly to what is good. Be devoted to one another with [authentic] brotherly affection [as members of one family], give preference to one another in honor; never lagging behind in diligence; aglow in the Spirit, enthusiasticallyserving the Lord; constantlyrejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast andpatient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength], contributing to the needs of God’s people, pursuing [the practice of] hospitality.

Following Jesus

 It is rather strange, how we, as Born-Again Christians, can step away from our upright walk before man. How easily our mouth that became a powerful positive faith filled tool for our Lord, we spoke words pertaining to life, that uplifts those that are down with words of edification! In a quick moment of anger, our tongues speak words leading to death! As Born-Again Christians, we all have a duty, that applies to each & every one of us, for us to be “example” or an illustration of Christ in this dark evil world. Jesus committed no sin & He spoke no “deceit” no lies nor did He misinterpret Truth to misrepresent Himself or the things pertaining to Himself! Our duty, our calling is to represent Jesus, His Word, His ways & to share His love to a lost & dying world! It is key to know Jesus intimately. Not just know Him! We must walk in the Holiness, in the Righteousness & in the Love of Christ, before this dark, before this lawless, before this cruel, perverse world! We must carry the Light of Christ to shine into this dark world as Light devours, overcomes darkness! Be that Light!!

1st Peter 2:21-25 (AMP) For [as a believer] you have been called for this purpose, since Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you may follow in His footsteps. He committed no sin, nor was deceit ever found in His mouth.While being reviled andinsulted, He did not revile orinsult in return; while suffering, He made no threats [of vengeance], but kept entrusting Himselfto Him who judges fairly. He personally carried our sins in His body on the cross [willingly offering Himself on it, as on an altar of sacrifice], so that we might die to sin [becoming immune from the penalty and power of sin] and live for righteousness; for by His wounds you [who believe] have been healed. For you were continually wandering like [so many] sheep, but now you have come back to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.

Gloom&Doom Is Coming

 You may say, as a Born-Again Christian that you do not buy into the “Doom&Gloom” stuff. But I tell you, we are on the fringes, the world is shaking, evil is quaking! There are signs of the “birth-pangs” pertaining to the appearance of Christ in the clouds. Well, in the same manner, there are signs concerning the day that is quickly approaching when evil will present itself in its fullness! Evil has increased year by year, now it is increasing day by day! Anger & hatred are coming forth in more & more wicked ways! The arguments have turned to physical fights, the fights have moved to knives & guns! Chicago, the #1 city in America for gun violence & death by guns has been replaced, topped, to the city of Brotherly Love, Philadelphia! I did not believe in my lifetime Chicago could be replaced, loose that #1 spot! It is disgusting how lawlessness has swept across this great nation! That Cup of Iniquity is almost to the brim, it will run over soon & our Lord will announce to the Faithful, the watching, wide awake Born-Again Christians who are ready, like five of the ten virgins, it is finished, the Trump now sounds! Are you ready? Are you prepared? Have you remained watchful, hopeful, for that moment, when Jesus meets you in the clouds? Do NOT be counted with the FAITHLESS! 

2nd Timothy 3:5 (AMP) Holding to a form of [outward] godliness (religion), although they have denied its power [for their conduct nullifies their claim of faith]. Avoid such people andkeep far away from them.

Keep Your Life In Order

 We are living in the Last Days. The Church Age is about to come to a close. Oh, so many think they are going to be taken in the Great Catching Away. Oh, so many are deceived! Many, way too many will get left behind! Understand the act of going to Church will not Save you! Wearing a cross around your neck, will not Save you! A Tattoo on your skin of a Bible Verse will not Save you! So-So many Christians have embraced the world, its ways & its pleasures! They have stopped crucifying their flesh, they have indulged in it & they have reached the point where sin is normal to them! I tell you Time is short, extremely short! Repent! Turn away from these worldly pleasures that place you back on that broad road, which the final destination is Hell itself! Again REPENT! Forsake sin! Ask Jesus to forgive you! Then, get back up, brush yourself off & hop back on that narrow road that leads to Heaven! Crucify your flesh! Kill it! Stop sin in its tracks! Follow Jesus once again! Before it is too late! Do not be left behind!!

Luke 9:23 (AMP) And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross daily [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me].

Faith! The Key Ingredient

 There is something that we do that pleases our Lord. Without it, nothing much can be accomplished if anything! What is that? FAITH! Hebrews 11:6 (AMP) 

But without faith it is impossible to [walk with God and] please Him, for whoever comes [near] to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He rewards those who [earnestly and diligently] seek Him. This thing that is of utmost importance, what is it! Believing you already have, what what your hoping for. Hebrews 11:1-2 (AMP) Now faith is the assurance (title deed, confirmation) of things hoped for (divinely guaranteed), and the evidence of things not seen [the conviction of their reality—faith comprehends as fact what cannot be experienced by the physical senses].For by this [kind of] faith the men of old gained [divine] approval.Faith is the requirement for our prayers to come to pass! Mark 11:24 (AMP) 

For this reason I am telling you, whatever things you ask for in prayer [in accordance with God’s will], believe [with confident trust] that you have received them, and they will be givento you.Faith, the “substance” of things hopes for, the “evidence” of things not seen! Faith is, a spiritual thing, operation. Everything that happens in this carnal world, starts in the spirit, then transforms itself or manifests itself into this carnal world. So our prayer is a spiritual operation. Our hope, is a spiritual thing, our will is a spiritual thing & our faith is a spiritual thing. Think about it, we are to walk by faith, not by carnal sight. 2nd Corinthians 5:7 (AMP) For we walk by faith, not by sight [living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in God’s promises].Jesus Himself said, If we can believe, if we can trust, if we “have” faith, ALL things are possible for those who believe, who have trust, who have faith in Jesus! 

Mark 9:23 (AMP) 

Jesus said to him, “[You say to Me,] ‘If You can?’ All things are possible for the one who believes andtrusts [in Me]!”

Be Prepared! Be Ready!

 Many people who sit in Christian Churches, here in America, & all over the word, profess to be saved, but never really had the true Salvation experience. If asked when they accepted Jesus, they have no answer. Or they say my parents took me to Church as a child & I have attended ever since. Or even, I live a good life. I tell you, any of these are your answer, you are not Saved!! You do not want to stroll into these last day, on the final day, when the Trump sounds, Jesus is in the clouds, yet you not float up to Him! Not a good time you have fallen in, accounted with, the group of “foolish” virgins!  They lacked oil for their lamps! They lacked the fullness of the Holy Spirit! At that moment, the people left behind will experience fear in the fullness of that manifestation! The “wise” virgins were prepared, prayed up, watching the sign line of Christ’s return, focused & Ready, awake-full Of Faith! The “foolish” were “asleep” partaking in the world, not giving attention to prayer, to Bible Study, watching  for the return of Christ nor building their faith by hearing & hearing by the Word of God! Do not be counted with the “foolish” virgins! Work out your own Salvation! Stay alert & keep standing firm in faith! It is up to you!

Matthew 25:1-13) (AMP)  “Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom.Five of them were foolish [thoughtless, silly, and careless], and five were wise [far-sighted, practical, and sensible]. For when the foolish took their lamps, they did not take any [extra] oil with them, but the wise took flasks of oil along with their lamps. Now while the bridegroom was delayed, they all began to nod off, and they fell asleep. But at midnight there was a shout, ‘Look! The bridegroom [is coming]! Go out to meet him.’ Then all those virgins got up and put their own lamps in order [trimmed the wicks and added oil and lit them]. But the foolish virginssaid to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, because our lamps are going out.’ But the wise replied, ‘No, otherwise there will not be enough for us and for you, too; go instead to the dealers and buy oilfor yourselves.’  But while they were going away to buy oil, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast; and the door was shut andlocked. Later the others also came, and said, ‘Lord, Lord, open [the door] for us.’ But He replied, ‘I assure you andmost solemnly say to you, I do not know you [we have no relationship].’ Therefore, be on the alert [be prepared and ready], for you do not know the day nor the hour [when the Son of Man will come].

Where Is Your Focus?

 We as Christians live in very troubling times. We as Christians are & have been pulled away from Jesus, His Word & walked straight into, took a seat, in the drama, the filth, the cares & fear of this present evil world! Many Christians have entangled themselves deeply into this world! I hear more & more Christians so embedded into the controversies concerning the 2020 elections, they see nothing else. If we believe the Bible, then we must understand God puts the leader in place! Now refocus, & be about Father God’s business of building His Kingdom! Share Jesus, pray & walk upright as His Ambassadors in this dark, cruel world! Let the light of Christ shine brightly into this dark lost & dying world!

Romans 13:1-2 (AMP) Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God [granted by His permission and sanction], and those which exist have been put in place by God.Therefore whoever resists [governmental] authority resists the ordinance of God. And those who have resisted it will bring judgment (civil penalty) on themselves.

Stay Planted On The Narrow Path

 We have reached a point where many uneasy things are taking place. It is a sad time in this life, but these things need to happen & Bible Prophecy will to come to pass, right before our eyes! 

1st Timothy 4:1-2 (AMP) But the [Holy] Spirit explicitly andunmistakably declares that in later times some will turn away from the faith, paying attention instead to deceitful andseductive spirits and doctrines of demons, 

[misled] by the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared as with a branding iron [leaving them incapable of ethical functioning]. There have been many leaving Christianity for the Muslim Faith. Many-Many more will continue leave for The Muslim Faith! It is a very dangerous thing to take one’s eyes off Jesus, to stop studying the Bible & stop the nurturing of one’s personal relationship with Jesus! Those, failed to examine themselves to confirm they are in the Faith! (2 Corinthians 13:5). We must stand firm in our faith! We Must must stand firm on the Word of God! Do not drift right, do not drift left. Keep yourself on the narrow Heavenly Path, holding on to the Truth, to sound Doctrine found in the Bible!

Proverb 4:23-27 (AMP) Watch over your heart with all diligence,

For from it flowthe springs of life.

Put away from you a deceitful (lying, misleading) mouth,

And put devious lips far from you.

Let your eyes look directly ahead [toward the path of moral courage]

And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you [toward the path of integrity].

Consider well andwatch carefully the path of your feet,

And all your ways will be steadfast andsure.

Do not turn away to the right nor to the left [where evil may lurk];

Turn your foot from [the path of] evil.

 We, as Born-Again Christians, face a great dilemma. Many, way too many times, this comes upon each of us & we really have no clue we have stepped over the line, we have been deceived. Even the most careful, the most cautious Christian is duped into. I know it has happened to me, way too many times. I am supposed to be a guy well versed in the works of the enemy, but my flesh can rise up & BAM! I lost some ground to the enemy! We are to be, as Born-Again Christians, “vessels” for our Lord to work through. But too many times, anger rises up through our flesh. Road rage is a perfect example of this, talking about politics is another that the enemy loves to work through. But anger in general is a mighty work of the enemy! One of Satan’s favorite tactics or powerful weapons, is the attempting to work anger through our flesh! We have power over it. We can reject it. But for some reason we miss it, we are blindsided by it & it flows, overtaking our walk of peace & sound mind! Anger is of hate not love! Once, we succumb to that initial dark spiritual move of anger into our flesh, if we allow it to flow, at that point we become one of Satan’s “vessels.” Let that sink in! And OH, how easy it flows! Anger if not rejected, turns into rage, then the words we speak lead us deeper down on that slippery slope of sin! We must stay alert! We Must crucify our flesh daily! We cannot be deceived & become “vessels” promoting the “fruit” of Satan! Give him no place, do not leave a door even cracked open! He will persist, he will sneak around, just waiting, looking for any opportunity to slip into your flesh, moving you off the Triumphant Christian Lifestyle! Remain a “vessel” for Christ!!

Joshua 24:15 (AMP)  If it is unacceptable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

Stop The Anger

 Have you noticed all the anger, all the rage, we face everyday? On social media, in stores, in Churches, in homes & even in traffic, especially on the road. Even among Christians. Emotions go from zero to 100mph in rage not in two seconds, but in an instant anger, but in instant out of control rage! What has happened to self control? To patience? 2nd Timothy 1:4-8 (AMP) For by these He has bestowed on us His precious and magnificent promises [of inexpressible value], so that by them you may escape from the immoral freedom that is in the world because of disreputable desire, and become sharers of the divine nature.For this very reason, applying your diligence [to the divine promises, make every effort] in [exercising] your faith to, develop moral excellence, and in moral excellence, knowledge (insight, understanding), and in yourknowledge, self-control, and in yourself-control, steadfastness, and in yoursteadfastness, godliness, and in yourgodliness, brotherly affection, and in yourbrotherly affection, [develop Christian] love [that is, learn to unselfishly seek the best for others and to do things for their benefit]. For as these qualitiesare yours and are increasing [in you as you grow toward spiritual maturity], they will keep you from being useless and unproductive in regard to the true knowledge andgreater understanding of our Lord Jesus Christ. I tell you this very important point concerning anger/rage is something that is not from God! It is a fleshly thing. Satan works it through your flesh, if we allow anger to rise up, Satan is walking in victory! Hear me, if you can refuse the anger rising up in your flesh, when you feel it coming on, Say: Get behind me Satan, in the name of Jesus! Say, anger, stand down, in the name of Jesus! It will work! Work, every time! There is zero love in anger & rage, they are attributes of the enemy! We prove to the world that we belong, we follow, we are disciples of Christ, by what? Our love for people! John 13:5 (AMP) By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you have love andunselfish concern for one another. Anger will lead to rage & into if possible, deeper sins! Stop it when it first rises up! Shake it off!!

Psalm 37:8 (AMP) Cease from anger and abandon wrath;

Do not fret; it leadsonly to evil.

Walk In Love

 As we walk through this world of hate, of evil & of darkness, we must remain strong in our walk with our Lord. We must not be tainted, not be overtaken nor become like this world that is full of hatred & misplaced love! The Bible is explicit concerning these last days! People of this world will grow more & more ungrateful, unholy & unloving! They will become brutal & haters of those things that are good! We, as Born-Again Christians must NOT follow along, step NOT into the flow of the sensual pleasure seeking world! We must NOT let our love walk slip! We must continue in the love of Christ to overcome the hate, the evil & the calloused ways of this perverse world! John 13:34 (AMP) I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too are to love one another. Love overcomes, love overcomes hate, love overcomes ALL things! Proverb 10:2 (AMP) Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers andoverwhelms all transgressions [forgiving and overlooking another’s faults]. We must walk upright in this perverse world. As we move though this darkness, we absolutely positively must remain in the love of Christ, sharing that love & we must keep the light of Christ & His love penetrating this dark & hateful world, how? Coming forth & shining brightly from our very beings! Walking in the love of Christ, walking in the mercy of Christ & walking in the Righteousness of Christ! When in doubt: Walk in love!

2nd Timothy 3:1-5 (AMP)  But understand this, that in the last days dangerous times [of great stress and trouble] will come [difficult days that will be hard to bear]. For people will be lovers of self [narcissistic, self-focused], lovers of money [impelled by greed], boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy andprofane, [and they will be] unloving [devoid of natural human affection, calloused and inhumane], irreconcilable, malicious gossips, devoid of self-control [intemperate, immoral], brutal, haters of good,traitors, reckless, conceited, lovers of [sensual] pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of [outward] godliness (religion), although they have denied its power [for their conduct nullifies their claim of faith]. Avoid such people andkeep far away from them.

Be A Light In A Dark World

 If we proclaim to be Christians, then our appearance should very well appear to be people of Light, not giving the appearance of darkness! A truly Born-Again Christian would not partake, would not touch nor enjoy the things of darkness. A truly Born-Again Christian would not profess Jesus as the Lord of their life, yet, then turn around, commit adultery, start playing around in/with the things that the god of this world offers! Furthermore, why do you profess Jesus as your Lord, but yet, you enjoy the offerings of this present world, which in turn is pleasing to Satan? We absolutely positively must strive to do the things that please our Lord, Jesus! Living the God-kind of upstanding, moral life with emphasis on righteousness, goodness & truth to emulate from your being to penetrate the very dark, very evil world! Some will accept Jesus by your words, but, many will accept Jesus as they watch you, study you, trying to find out why you are different! Do they/will they find you/myself different from the rest of this world, as they watch us very closely? 

Ephesians 5:8-11 (AMP) For once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of Light [live as those who are native-born to the Light] (for the fruit [the effect, the result] of the Light consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth), trying to learn [by experience] what is pleasing to the Lord [and letting your lifestyles be examples of what is most acceptable to Him—your behavior expressing gratitude to God for your salvation]. Do not participate in the worthless andunproductive deeds of darkness, but instead expose them [by exemplifying personal integrity, moral courage, and godly character].
