Keep Preparing - Deception is Subtle

Perfect Love

Where to start and where to finish when it comes to the goodness, mercy, grace – the purity and holiness and beauty of the Lord.  As Robin Mark (Irish Christian singer/composer/songwriter) wrote one time:

He lowers us to raise us, so we can sing His praises. Whatever is His way, all is well. He makes us rich and poor, that we might trust Him more. I know NOT all His plans, but I know, I am in His hands.  (All is Well – Robin Mark; Revival in Belfast album)

Our Matchless Creator

You are in His hands, even when many, if not all of us, feel like He is not near in the darkest and most devastating times of our lives. That is precisely when He is the closest and the quietest. Those of us who do believe, know and deeply love our Maker all go through the dry times, and through the grueling storms that not only demand seemingly unrealistic perseverance but robs us of all strength until we humbly cry out, Lord, save me…

Any who say they have not ever seen those times are either not being truthful, OR they need to walk along a little longer, for those times will come. Yes, those times will come. Those are the times we must trust; we must persevere; we must press in to our Lord and hold fast to our faith. Even upon the cross, our Saviour Jesus/Yeshua cried out: My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?

Even our Messiah felt horribly alone in His hour of need! Our incredible, rich example!   

When I Return, Will I Find Faith? [Lk 18:8]

Yet tell me, if our love wilts when the trials are fiery and uncomfortable, as the heat of scorching day followed by the inescapable cold of the same desert at night; or if those trials and tribulations are fast and furious, like an merciless tsunami or a runaway locomotive or transport truck and trailer.

What if what these trials or hardships bring us pain that cuts so deep it doesn’t bleed (whether physical, mental, spiritual), and the wound seems to have no cure or any hint or sign of healing, what then? Is our love sure enough that we will still highly exalt our King?

Will our suffering draw us closer to our Saviour, knowing that now, finally, we share with Him in drinking from that deep, deep cup of suffering that He drank from, and that He asked His disciples if they were willing to drink from the same cup? 

Upon reflection of the question and affirming their love for their Teacher/Rabbi, those faithful disciples said, Yes Lord, we are willing. And they, like us, were naïve regarding what they were agreeing to, or what the drinking of that cup and the baptism that follows would entail…a cup/furnace of afflictions, a baptism of fire (purging, purifying, cleansing). [see Matthew 20:22, 23]

Will we still say that God is good and His mercy endures forever? When we are despised and rejected as He was; when our sorrows and our grief familiarize us with Yeshua’s (Jesus’) anguish, His agony, will we hide our face from Him, or will we lift Him up in honour and glory? (And our suffering has nothing to do with being crucified - with exception of those who were brutally, cruelly crucified by ISIS aka ISIL)

Will we remember that the crossbar to which Messiah was nailed to, attached to that rugged olive tree (some say - almond tree; suffice it to say, our Saviour was nailed to a rugged, rough tree), bore our sorrows and griefs, bearing the brutal wounds for our transgressions, and the massive bruising He bore for our iniquities, will we still think that Christ did it all for us?  [Read Isaiah 53]

The Lord opens the eyes of the blind: the Lord raises them that are bowed down: the Lord loves the righteous: [Ps 146:8] Praise Him for His mighty acts: praise Him according to His excellent greatness. [Ps 150:2]

Truth He Speaks  

Believe the vision. Believe the long, hard walk, and believe that I AM with you. All that you have long awaited is about to come to fruition. Do not weary of hearing this, for how often have I told you that My “soon” is not as your “soon”.

Finally, you understand this, and yes, I remind you, a thousand years is as a day to me. Yet I know the value in the lesson learned in “waiting”, and the rewards that follow the longsuffering. Have you not witnessed patience, longsuffering, in Me? How many would be lost if I were impatient? And so, My children must taste and see. They must learn; they must come to know their Father, their Creator.

Indeed, in many things, you have suffered double (consequences); nevertheless, I AM He who has forgiven and it is lost, gone forever into the sea of forgetfulness. Do not listen to any who remind you of that which is forgiven. It is not of Me.

I told you that there were things you had to learn, just as things your loved ones had to learn, yet you knew not the hardships that learning would bring. I did not tell you, for at that time, you could not bear it. Yet, I AM and I have walked with you every step of the way. Rejoice. Trust.

Soon, My beloved, soon. I have granted you favour, strength and courage. Prepare but do not fear. This “peace” is temporary, the illusion I spoke to you of. Fear not, do not be afraid, for I AM ever with you and I will have you positioned when the time appointed arrives.

Stay in My Word, for through it I shall guide you. Keep in prayer, for through them, I shall answer. Remember:

I have not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Be not therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be a partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;

Who has saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus (Yeshua) before the world began, [2Tim 1:7-9]

My lovingkindness will not fail you. I shall wipe away your silent tears (and the inward ones that only you and I know you have shed). Soon your tears shall be replaced with laughter. Do not trust in the illusion of peace and “normalcy”. Wait patiently on Me; keep seeking Me early (I AM ever here for you, for My faithful ones)

As the earth’s inhabitants spin out of control, KNOW that I AM in control. Allow things to come into alignment with My written Word, My will (for they are), and know everything will be right on time. Rest a little longer.

Just because one person does not hear My voice deep within, trust that I am He who communicates in many ways. There are still the blind and deaf, but I AM the  God who heals.

I AM the God of Abraham who speaks to you through the blood of the Lamb, My Son, Yeshua (Jesus).

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery; even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory. Which none of the princes of the world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

But it is written, eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things God has prepared for them that love Him. [1Cor 2:7-9]

(End of message)

Hint of new article: 

Have you wondered what 5G and mind control have in common? Keep seeking the Lord, for He is revealing things and He is guiding His people who desire truth in these days of deception, lies, covetousness and more, as the world and the powers that be readies itself for the greatest deception ever perpetrated against mankind, to bring about the “great reset”, the “new normal” and the “beast system”, which our Lord so graciously foretold and forewarned of in His Holy Scriptures.

Keep preparing. Deception is crafty, cunning and...subtle. In his pride, Satan/Lucifer truly believes he will win this battle and be worshipped by all in the end. His own pride has deceived him.

Seek our Lord and cleave to Him. He is speaking to His people…He will guide us away from deception, but we must keep that hunger for truth - truth in all things.

But the beginning of wisdom (and truth) is the LORD and the fear of the Lord. Yeshua/Jesus is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE - and the ONLY way back to God (Yahweh). 

Being a Christian, especially now in Canada, with the new bills passed, Bill C-10 (regulating [read "control"] social platforms and streaming services) and Bill C-36 (regarding hate crimes, online hate speech, which "Christian beliefs" fall under 'hate speech if we stand strong, loyal and firm on the Word of God).

We must keep in prayer because at this moment, July 12, 2021, the bills are passed in legislature, yes, but they are not yet "law".

For His glory alone,
