Distractions, But Not Judgment from the North

When the Chinese sent their ‘spying’ (supposedly, ‘weather’) balloon down into the United States and it came through Canada from the ‘north’, my first thought was that the posting of ‘Judgment Comes from the North’ was too late. Remember, I had intended to post this on the first day of Passover [Pesach] – Wednesday, April 5, 2023. Meanwhile, six weeks later…

I was well into the article, but it was not in any order. I had actually noted the balloons in February, and it brought me to prayer. So much happening; Lord, what do I do? Continue on…calmly, peacefully. Do not panic. Remember, for you, it is not a competition.

The Chinese have been loudly rattling their sabers, and making themselves quite ‘noticeable’ globally, not only taunting the West with their bold presence, but pressing Taiwan even more. China is busy talking with nations, gaining allies.

When my friend Hoang Nguyen passed in November 2022, I had placed a small map of Vietnam, Taiwan and Philippines in the tribute because my friend and brother in Christ was from ‘Nam, but I did not post right away after his passing.

I did not realize what was happening with China and Taiwan (sigh, yes, I know), but I had asked people to pray for the area, particularly Taiwan – I sensed danger but whether from natural calamities or supernatural enemies, I did not know at the time of posting.

It was a little after that post (which was December 21, 2022, almost one month after my friend’s passing), that I found out about China’s interest in Taiwan. Prayers continue…

China is aligning itself with Russia and Iran (axis). Sabers are coming out of their sheaths and are being lifted high, a threatening position. However, the ‘gathering of allies’ is being done openly and discreetly, all in the guise of strengthening better relationships amongst countries where tension has been the past norm.

For example, Xi Jinping held a conference call between himself, Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince and PM Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud [Suu’d – born August 31, 1985] The discretion comes in to play as the public was told it was to wish the King (Crown Prince) “best wishes” and “Ramadan greetings”.

From China’s own website, the following is posted:

“Xi Jinping pointed out that recently, with the joint efforts of China, Saudi Arabia and Iran, the Saudi Arabis-Iran talks in Beijing were successfully held and achieved significant results. It has helped to improve relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran, and played a major exemplary role in enhancing regional unity and cooperation and easing regional tensions, which has been widely praised by the international community.”

The Crown Prince (King) also “sincerely appreciates China’s strong support in improving relations between Saudi Arabia and Iran, which fully demonstrates China’s role as a responsible major country.” [highlight emphasis mine]

“Saudi Arabia attaches great importance to developing its relations with China, and stands ready to work with China to open up new prospects of bilateral cooperation.”

Surveillance Balloon

click on any picture to enlarge

What troubled most North Americans was why a surveillance balloon, identified as Chinese, was allowed to enter the U.S. in Alaska’s airspace, then travel through Canada, and then southerly again to the States, supposedly pausing at strategic military bases across the country [States] before it was shot down on February 4, 2023, off South Carolina’s coast.

four balloons shot down-Feb 2023

Three ‘unidentified flying objects’ were shot down in three consecutive days [see above link]. Firstly, off Alaska’s coast, but also on the same day, one was taken down in South America [Feb 10], secondly, over the Yukon [Feb 11], and thirdly [Feb 12], over Lake Huron. Although reports suggest otherwise, PM Trudeau denies any debris being found in Canadian waters.

That would be an ‘interestingly creative’ way to ‘donate money’ – take down a balloon and have its ‘contents’ floating in your water. The ‘donations’ could help with debris that needed ‘cleaning up’. Okay, I am getting ahead of myself with many governments globally asking for ‘donations’ for this or that reason, but a little humour goes a long way.

It does seem that everyone is asking for donations these days, or has a donate button…from news sites (that let you read 1-3 articles, then pay), to blogs, to just about everything nowadays. Folks need help.

The homeless are on street corners, at stores, and on highway medians. I find myself asking the Lord where to give because it is impossible to address the homeless, and all the websites. And only God knows where I can help the most. I am on a pension, but the widow woman in the Bible gave 2 mites (worth half a penny).

That was everything she had. What a generous heart. Jesus was so impressed with her giving that He made a memorial of her gift to this day – she is still honoured.

In early 2011 [Feb], I had had a vision that took place over a three-day period. In one snippet, a bear with three arrows in its mouth was seen running across the top of Canada, heading westerly toward Alaska.

Jesus has spoken of distractions for nearly five years now (sprinkled throughout the archives in articles), with events escalating as the push becomes more desperate by the Illuminati [Freemasonry], the Luciferians, to bring in the NWO (which has been renamed the Great Reset, as the Lord said, in late 2020).

Again, history repeats. Three times during the Trump administration, Chinese balloons were said to have crossed the country. Trump called such info ‘disinformation’. During the Biden administration (recently), two more Chinese balloons were reported to have travelled over the United States again.

President Biden stated that even though the Chinese balloon was shot down, it was ‘not’ linked to the China spy program. If it was not spying or collecting information, then why bother spending all the money in shooting it down?

Canadians questioned why authorities did not intervene with the first balloon, skeptical of our government ever since Trudeau publicly admitted his admiration for the CCP and their ways.

They doubted him when he said no debris from the Chinese balloon that was shot down and landed on Canadian side of Lake Huron was found. People speculated that with his keen interest in the Chinese, Trudeau would have ordered any debris collected, so he could see for himself what the Chinese put inside their surveillance balloons.

Lt-Gen. Alain Pelletier - NORAD
Canadian Air Division

Lt-Gen. Alain Pelletier [Deputy Commander – Cdn. Air Div], [NORAD] dismisses allegations regarding Canada ‘allowing’ flight of the Chinese balloon to pass through ‘undetected’.

He claims ‘radar gaps’ happen due to dust particles or birds flying in the wind, which leads to ‘false contacts’. However, the ‘tweaking of the radar’ enabled them to catch the second balloon in past weeks (Feb 12, 2023). China countered accusations by stating that the U.S. flew more than 10 balloons in their airspace without permission.

The presence of the next three balloons that were shot down was brushed aside, as President Biden stated: […] “…the unidentified objects are ‘most likely balloons tied to private companies, recreation or research institutions, studying weather or conducting other scientific research.” (Back to weather balloons again. That is getting as old as ‘the dog ate my homework.’)

If merely harmless weather balloons, why shoot them down?  SOURCE: CBS News.com (includes short video of Biden speaking on the matter)

All the above information came out in over a one-week span. As fast as public attention was drawn to the presence of a Chinese ‘spying’ [surveillance] balloon, followed by three more ‘unidentified flying objects’, it fizzled out just as quickly. Did you notice? Well, that is how distractions work.

How many other ‘distractions’ are tossed into the daily ‘media salad’? Even more thought-provoking; what are we being distracted from? If they have us looking ‘up’, perhaps we should be looking ‘downward’ (on the ground).

After careful consideration and waiting on the Lord, I understood that these were all manmade events, meaning ‘not from God’. As all these things begin to wear down the saints like a dripping tap, the renewing of our strength will indeed only be found in time with the Lord.

With increased busyness everywhere, even that is becoming more challenging. Let us guard ourselves. I know that I need to discipline myself more. It is so easy to get ‘busy’ – it is surreal how easy it is.

At any rate, back to the subject at hand, the balloons were not “judgment coming from the north” – they were distractions.

Look to the Skies

First mentioned in 2016, and followed up again in 2020 and 2022/23, the Lord mentioned: “Look to the skies”. I understood that He was forewarning of deception, such as an alien invasion, but also what governments were doing in the skies, such as holograms.

2017

2022

Interestingly enough, it was China that had people “looking up to the skies” back then. China has been famous for their holograms of floating cities, UFOs, humanoids, and more. It was as if China was testing the reaction of their people, but more so, the global reaction.

2022--Pu'er_Yunnan Prov. China

The appearance of their holograms fed those who believed Project Blue Beam would likely come to fruition. The “Project” was considered a conspiracy theory that warned people that the governments of the world would create a ‘fake rapture’ (via holograms, satellite projections, etc.) apparently to introduce a New Age religion, combined with an Antichrist. There are plenty of articles on the net, if interested.

When it comes to war, we will need to be discerning, and very close to the Lord. Much has gone down globally since 2016 [seven years ago]. The Lord also reminded people of His ‘logos’ [written] Word which speaks of comets, or meteors, or asteroids, which the Bible refers to as ‘falling stars’, such as in [Lk 21:25,26; Rev 6:12-14; Rev 8:8-9] et al.

There is plenty of evidence around the world where asteroids or meteors landed. One of the latest and most frightening was the meteor that struck Russia in February 15, 2013. ABC News provided a 4:29 minute video. Over 1000 people injured, and much damage done.

With so much going on, and with things escalating and intensifying, it is easy to forget, especially as we try to carry on with a ‘normal’? life. Yet, on the good side of ‘look up to the skies’ is to do so as an act of hope and faith, looking for the return of our Saviour and Redeemer, Jesus the Christ (Yeshua haMashiach).

It is written that there will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. Nations will be distressed, and the sea and waves will roar. Men’s hearts failing for fear (heart attacks?) because of all the powers of heaven that will be shaken. But in all this chaotic, cataclysmic time, the Son of man will appear in all His glory. [Lk 21:25-26]

And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draws near. [vs 28]

These were the reasons that the Lord:

[1] warned of deception in the skies

[2] encouraged us to keep looking up for His return.

If the ‘prophets’ had received that word from the Lord, instead of gleaning from fields that they did not plant, they would have understood and bear witness to the wisdom and compassion of the Lord.

Odd Unexplained Appearances

Feb 10--Kelowna BC

Kelowna BC - 10 Feb 2023

A “strange object” was caught going across the Kelowna, B.C. skies on February 10, 2023, the same time that the second Chinese balloon flew down into the States. Then, on February 25, 2023, another B.C. Kelowna (Black Mtn) resident captured a strange light going across the sky.

So, although there are launches like Starlink, the satellite internet constellation system, a SpaceX [Elon Musk] invention, as well as many other satellites now cluttering up the outer space around our planet, there are other unexplained appearances in the sky.

With theories on an alien invasion planned to deceive mankind in order to cause panic and chaos, and thus bring in the Antichrist (Lawless one) in order to ‘solve’ the problem, as well as conspiracies regarding Project Bluebeam and a ‘fake rapture’, the Lord did warn us to look to the skies.

He cuts confusion to the quick by warning about deception first, via man and help from the invisible dark side. But also He reminds us that He is returning, and to keep hope and trust as a shield, looking for our Saviour.

Geoengineering is another situation that was denied by the governments of the world. Yet, the breakdown in soil (minerals/nutrient depletion), water contamination (including rain water), and weather manipulation (weather wars, something that has been going on since WWII) has now been proven. And now, the government admits to geoengineering but for good purposes. They are no longer denying it.

Chemical release in the air also causes breakdown in immune system, lungs, etc. This has been proven. I have personally monitored geoengineering (chemtrail patterns) off and on, since 1997, and how I learned that certain patterns affect weather; others affect our bodies.

Apr 14.2023- people sick
two days later

Anyone who wants to see can attest to geoengineering. It is not conspiracy. Much observation and prayer over the decades went into my conclusion, as well as reading the work of multitudes. Two days after the above was sprayed in Ontario, three 

It is not only due to the great deceptions planned against mankind, but it is written that the Lord Himself will be returning like lightning that comes from the east and shines clear over to the west, so shall His coming back be. [Mat 24:27]

How the whole earth, including God’s people, groan, and travail for His return. Maranatha!

(For governments to involve themselves in geoengineering, which they do not deny now, is to go outside boundaries, play by no rules, hence, lawless.)  Illusion, deception, control and manipulation, rebellion, lawlessness, idolatry…

The Unrelenting North

I first heard of God’s judgment coming from the north in a random comment made by someone briefly during a bible study discussion one or two decades ago. No exhaustive research was carried out at that time, but my curiosity was piqued.

From a quick search, I discovered that it is scriptural, as well as what kind of judgment was carried out from the north, and why. A couple of decades ago, thoughts of the north always made me imagine blustery, biting cold, winter winds that savagely whipped against the body of any poor soul unfortunate enough to be found in its path. (That kind of thought should be expected of me – I am a Canuck [Canadian])

What is discovered in the Bible is that God would often stir up the hearts of brutal, heartless adversaries [void of compassion and mercy], who would then gather their armies to arise ‘from the north’ and invade the kingdoms of certain nations. If successful in their campaign, they would possess the land, enslave the people, and take their belongings as spoil.

Therefore, thus says the Lord of hosts; Because you have not heard My words [would not listen],

Behold, I will send [gather together] and take all the tribes [armies] of the north, says the Lord, for Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, My servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment [destruction], and a hissing [horror], and perpetual desolations. [Jer 25:8-9] KJV-ESV

Who are these people that the Lord God [Adonai] judges? These people were most often His own people, who were steeped in rebellion, idolatry, immorality, hostilities (violence), and more, having turned their backs on the living God.

Are those the armies that the prophet Joel called locusts? That depends. Commentators vary in their perspectives, understanding and conclusions. Some saw the [various] locusts as literal; at given times throughout history, invading Israel, and destroying their agriculture [crops], sent by God for the disobedience, rebellion and waywardness (often idolatry) of His people.

Others suggested the locusts referred to all the invading armies that swooped down upon Israel, attacking from the north: armies such as the Babylonians, Midianites, Moabites, Ammonites, Philistines, et al.

The north was considered a vantage point due to the popular trade routes, the traveling caravans, etc., which could be seized to hinder Israel’s supplies, but the north was also a strategically advantageous point due to the ability to position armies in the hills.

According to one report, the mountainous northern ridge that “stretches from below Hebron in the south to the valley of Jezreel in the north – the ridge is referred to as the “spine of Israel”. 

It goes on to say that the hills “provide an ideal strategic vantage point for either engaging with enemies or simply standing guard over the towns and cities peppered across the lower plains.”

“The scraggy hills, marked by steep inclines, gaping gorges and deep valleys, are also an ideal natural barrier for slowing invading armies and provide a measure of protection for civilians and homeland armies as well as military hardware and facilities.”

Perhaps it was from the massive number of times Israel was indeed invaded from the north, according to scripture, that they finally use it in modern times to their advantage (protecting Israel), or perhaps it was because they only became a state again in 1948.

However, from the [extreme] north of Israel is Russia, who is mentioned by the prophet Ezekiel when he spoke of Gog, a person or title? (and the land of Magog). The Bible calls Russia the “king of the north” [Ezek 38]

Scriptures will be fulfilled with the alignment of Russia, China, Iran and other ‘allies’.

Israel is No Longer God’s Chosen?

Abram became Abraham - chosen of God

For you are a people holy unto the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be His people, His treasured possession. [Deut7:6]

God chose Abram and brought him out of a pagan culture [Ur] that worshipped false gods. From Abraham [God changed his name] would come forth many nations, including 12 Hebrew tribes that came forth from his grandson Jacob, later renamed ‘Israel’. God keeps His promises. He kept that one, as we know.

Yet God made a promise to Abraham when He called Him out of Ur. [Gen 12:1-3] He will keep that promise also. [Some people today can act like spoiled children (or like Joseph’s jealous, envious brothers), and despise the ‘chosen’.]

Yet, what responsibility came with that privilege of being chosen? They were to be exemplary; an example; an ideal or model for the rest of the nations. However, most importantly of all, the Israelites (originally the Hebrews) became the privileged bloodline that El Shaddai chose to bring His beloved Son, the promised Saviour through.

Why else do you think Satan [Lucifer] has fought so hard to destroy them? And today? His vengeance is against all of mankind, yet his hatred for the Israelis (because of Yeshua/Jesus) is:

[1] to keep them deceived [blind] to the fact that their Messiah (our Saviour) has already come, as they prepare the temple for the Lawless one (little do they know for now)

[2] to make it look like God failed in His promises (to save Israel) [Rom 11:26]

[3] to increase antisemitism amongst the Gentiles; to further stall God’s end time plan (but it will not happen). God is Sovereign and Omnipotent, not Satan. The devil’s pride prevents him from accepting that reality.

It would not matter which people God chose, they would be hated, but it just happened to be a small nation – Hebrews, now known as Israelites.

There are people [Antisemites] who think that Israel is no longer God’s chosen, and that God forsook them due to their present-day condition (embracing the Pride movement, with a weeklong celebration coming up in June 2023).

Sadly, Israel does ‘proudly’ call themselves the “Gay Capital of the Middle East”. There are tourism agencies that not only set up tours specifically geared toward the Pride movement, but points to the best places for gays to stay in Tel Aviv, best bars etc.

I refuse to supply a link as if to encourage this. I do not; my prayer is that God opens eyes, softens hearts, and grants opportunity to repent once they can see. May He rebuke the devourer long enough for them to make a decision without temptation. God never forces us to choose Jesus, but He gives plenty of opportunity to make the right choice.

Be Not Easily Swayed by Empty Promises

What I am trying to establish throughout this series is WHY a loving God would choose to bring JUDGMENT from the ‘north’ (do not forget justice – with God, they always go hand in hand. Adonai is a good and fair God, full of mercy, grace and patience. But there comes a time…)

Why bring judgment at all? This series makes ‘why’ abundantly clear for those who want to blame, scoff, or mock. Keep in mind that the series is called, Season of Consequences. I spoke of the calm before the storm, but foreboding clouds darken around September 2023.

A king has been crowned that has an agenda, along with his pal, Klaus Schwab. End of the year, November and December, will likely be a time of some dominoes beginning to fall. There is a ”push”…

Yes, I take a risk because today’s ‘prophets’ speak of wealth transfers, blessings, (tell that to the people in Nigeria, China, N. Korea, Pakistan, and India, and other war-torn, persecuted countries (jihad terrorists) – as IF God favours us in the West so much more.

God is doing miracles over there, but of course, we are not being told of it through news.

Shame on those false prophets! The people in these other countries are our brothers and sisters in Christ too. Where are the genuine tears, the heart-wrenching sorrow for our brethren? Well, it is coming to North America – it has started in trickles; we have heard reports of churches, police and other random shootings. Violence and lawlessness increases.

This is not fearmongering. It is the Word of God coming to fruition. When the Lord mentioned ‘exodus’ in 2009, I did not have understanding fully. I only saw in part, and therefore, did not pay much mind, but I did post it.

The Lord mentioned it again in 2012, and I understood that it meant there would be multitudes leaving the countries they called home. It was understood that it would affect ‘nations’ which meant global (and some of us would experience an ‘exodus’ as well).

This exodus would be due to wars, persecutions, natural calamities, etc. that would affect multitudes. Emigrants leaving their country (as refugees; as those ‘fleeing’), and immigrants, coming into countries that would accept volumes of emigrants.

I emigrated from the United States in 2014, returning to Canada, NOT as an immigrant, but as a Canadian citizen. That was my first ‘exodus’ [leaving the U.S.], as I was 9 months into my seventh year in the States when I left.

I had no idea how long I would be in the United States when the Lord first moved upon my heart to go… and I did not want to go because it meant leaving my children. I had wept, fasted, prayed, for a week – then, I obeyed. I had to be certain that I was hearing from the Lord, and not some demon.

The Lord provided ‘online’ work for me the entire time I was in the States. You can trust that when you obey the Lord’s leading, He will provide for you. He is trustworthy.

My second ‘exodus’ was March 27, 2022, when the Lord had me leave B.C. (the province of my heart) to return to Ontario (the province of my birth). I lived in B.C. longer than I did Ontario. All three children were born out west.

I arrived in Ontario July 1, 2022. It was the longest, painful trip, due to a fully packed SUV, all motels practically booked due to Canada’s July 1 national celebration, and construction. Six days grabbing naps (anywhere from thirty minutes up to three hours maximum [that was when utterly exhausted]) in the front seat sitting up, and long delays due to the construction that began immediately over the Manitoba/Ontario border, and continued all the way down through the entire province.

I kid you not, but praise God, the weather was excellent, the vehicle gave me no problems. I was able to eat and do nature calls. It was a great trip otherwise. Prepare! Jesus is the way through everything – He is the ONLY way through… It was a safe trip and I am grateful.

Quick Detour – Short Rabbit Hole, Short Visit

Please understand. There is a reason Jeremiah rebuked the prophets that stole from others, warning that God is against them (Please see: [Jer 23:30-32])

When people glean material from your site and have NOT consulted the Lord on certain things, their interpretations are misconstrued, that is, if they give any. Even if there is truth in what they speak, it is likely because it comes from scripture.

Satan did that with Jesus; spoke scripture to Him. Despite what they say that sounds like truth, they are misleading the people – all in God’s name. One does not need me to say that is wrong.

Nowhere in what the Lord told me about ‘exodus’ (when He first mentioned it in 2009, and expounded on it in 2012) did He tell me there would be a ‘wealth transfer’, similar to the Egyptians who gave all their gold, jewels, and other valuables to the departing Israelites.

The Israelites had been wrongly enslaved, and brutally treated for 400 years. They were beginning a new life, and the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob caused ‘the thief’ to restore unto His people. They gathered ‘great wealth’, but they were held captive for four centuries! They were slaves, and treated like animals.

And even though a modern-day exodus has been taking place, within random countries around the globe, this has been for some years. This was explained in another article before.

Many of those in this exodus are refugees, sex slaves and persecuted souls, terrorized, and fearful souls fleeing the lands where they were born and grew up in. Hundreds, if not thousands, have lost their lives due to tragedies involving their ways of being transferred (overloading), neglect, mishandled transportation, lack of proper water and food [assistance].

This exodus has been and is taking place globally (for several years now). It does not mean that our ‘enemies’ will be slaughtered as Pharaoh and his Egyptian armies were. Pharaoh had divided his armies six times.

Firstly, dividing North and South. Then, according to his gods (Egyptian false gods): Amen, Ptah, Sutekh, and RA. Pharaoh trusted in the god Amen. That was his standard according to historical records, but whether that was applicable to the time when he crossed the Red Sea, in chase of the fleeing Israelites or not, is unclear.

If so, it would have meant that Egypt lost all its armies when the waters of the Red Sea fell back down upon them.  There is one thing I would like to quickly insert because I heard it a few times along my faith walk on this planet.

It has to do with the word “Amen”, which has erroneously been linked to ‘Amun Ra’, the false Egyptian god, and Christians are told to avoid saying it. We know that Satan/Lucifer, the author of confusion, counterfeits everything of God, in order to deceive the masses.

I will give you a link to a Jewish site that explains the word ‘amen’. It clearly comes from the Hebraic language. “Emunah” means ‘faith’, a life wholly dependent on God. “Amen” means [so] ‘be it’, or ‘let it be so’ (translated into English).

According to the site, amen comes from ‘emunah’, and shares its root with ‘faith’ and ‘eman’. The Jewish site states that it is recorded that Jesus used ‘amen’ 51 times in the Synoptic Gospels, and 25 times in the gospel of John.

Amen also means ‘trust’ in Hebrew. Faith and trust, all in ‘amen’. No wonder the devil wants to have us afraid to use the word ‘amen’, for fear we would be honouring an ancient false god. Why would Satan bother with ‘Amen’. If the roots are indeed shared with ‘faith’ and ‘trust’, that would be why. Faith and trust are important to our Father (Abba).

FAITH: But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. [Heb 11:6]

TRUST: Trust in the Lord with all your heart; and lean not to your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. [Prov 3:5,6]

Those are only two out of multiple verses throughout the Old and New Testaments that point to the Lord always, with faith and trust. So, it is clearer to see why the adversary would do all he can in his crafty, subtle ways to destroy the foundation (faith in Christ), and trust (our confidence in Him).

Out of the Rabbit Hole and Back on Track

For a balanced and fuller understanding of the origin in the original language, please read the article at: jewish.shop The devil is doing all he can to dissect Christianity and have us toss bits and pieces away. Let us not be people who perish for “lack of knowledge”. Search out what you can. Keep an open ear. It is worth it.

It is impossible for us as individuals to search out every little thing, which is why we can help each other with tidbits here and there, as part of our learning (to the glory of God), we share. Freely we receive, freely give.

We All Need to Repent – Every Nation

Israel has relaxed by granting women access [June 2022] to abortion pills (when Roe vs Wade was overturned).

Israel has also ordained their first gay rabbinical student who faced denial in New York. It was almost four years ago (2019) when the ordination of gay Rabbi Daniel Landes was celebrated with ceremony and dance in Yeshiva University.

The young gay was to marry a man in the fall of 2018, but it did not happen. Jewish rabbis now marry same-sex couples, as do many other countries, Canada included.

Israel-same sex marriage

People may point at Israel because of these things and insist God no longer considers them His chosen people, especially because of the sins the nation is steeped in. Firstly, God keeps His promises, and in the end [after Tribulation], Israel will be saved. [Is 62:12]

There are other places throughout scripture where God’s promise is mentioned, including [Zechariah 12], [Revelation 7], which mention the remnant saved at Christ’s return. Do not forget the two witnesses, plus the 144,000 mentioned, all aimed at the salvation of Israel.

Secondly, people point at Israel and the sins of the people, but can anyone name ONE nation today that is not steeped in rebellion, violence, lawlessness, the Pride movement, abortion, the ordination of gays into the churches as pastors, reverends, preachers, etc.?

No, not even one can be named; there is not one nation upon this entire earth right now in May 2023 that is holy unto God. We need (and desperately await) the return of our Saviour (Messiah), King of kings and Lord of lords, Jesus the Christ (Yeshua haMashiach [Yeshua the Messiah]).

Are the Locusts the Prophet Joel Mentioned ‘Armies’?

Apache attack helicopter - warcraft

Most historians and commentators agreed that full understanding depends upon when the prophet Joel penned the words, as no scholar has clamped down on the precise timing. Other commentators saw Joel’s words as futuristic, suggesting the prophet spoke of helicopters, which would best be described as “locusts” (main rotary blades, ‘tail’ rotary, fin, landing gear, canons, etc.).

Apache war helicopters

From the prophet’s description. the similarity can easily be recognized by those familiar with aircraft. The Apache attack helicopter (warcraft) and the Black Hawk can readily be seen as locusts, especially when the government’s military sends out ‘swarms’.

'Copyhawks' - similar to Blackhawks

“Copyhawks” is the name given to the Chinese aircraft by a journalist for Popular Mechanics (2017) for the uncanny resemblance to the Black Hawks. Overall, the experts, no matter their viewpoint, all agreed on two things. “From the north” indicated:

[1] powerful, swift, and relentless invasions

[2] just judgment of the righteous, holy and Sovereign God against a rebellious and/or idolatrous nation, particularly His own people

People are hungry for truth, but truth comes in various degrees. Sadly, many people only want truth that is convenient; truth they can handle, or can readily accept. They want to hear hope, and peace, and security.

The world thirsts for acceptance and agape love. Only God through Jesus (Yeshua) can provide all those things. He is the One who cares enough to set us straight. Victory was accomplished through the bloodstained cross and the empty tomb [resurrection of the Saviour], but despite what some people prophesy, that does not mean a trouble-free life.

Jesus said: “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me, you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation (trials): but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” [Jn 16:33]

Jesus Christ Himself learned obedience through the things He suffered. [Heb 5:8] Jesus is coming back to rescue His people from the evils this world has embraced. Yet, it is written that a great tribulation is coming, the likes of which has never been seen before, nor shall ever be seen again.

For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. [Mat 24:21]

FEAR of the LORD is Missing Amongst Most Christians

Where is the fear of the Lord? It is so important. One cannot KNOW the Lord if one has no fear of the Lord. This kind of ‘fear’ is not as in ‘horror/afraid’, such as we feel when we face evil or great danger, but rather the kind of fear as one has toward an excellent father, except amp it up because this ‘Father’ is Almighty God.

I call it a reverential fear – a respectful, honouring, in awe type of fear – the Wonder, the Majesty, the All-consuming Glory of God, our flesh could not bear to see God wholly

Honour (Sovereign Creator, Omnipotent God), respect (His divinity, goodness, purity), awe (His holiness, power, authority, magnificence, strength, glory, Omniscience [all-knowing], immeasurable grace), reverence (His wisdom, good judgment, balanced justice, undeserved mercy), gratitude (His exceptional ways, salvation, provisions, protection, agape love, never-ending, ever-changing list).

To understand that with one word, He can change everything. To know that no matter how much we try to hide, He sees the heart and knows us better than we know ourselves. No matter where we run to, we cannot escape Him.

Where shall I go from Your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from Your presence? If I ascend up to heaven, You are there: if I make my bed in hell [the grave], behold, You are there.

If I take the winds of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall Your hand lead me, and Your right hand shall hold me.[Ps 139]

David was aware of God’s omnipresence (all-encompassing, all-surrounding). I know what I am speaking about because when I denied the Lord and went after an idol (a mere man), I had no fear of the Lord. I was not wise, but instead was blind, foolish, ignorant, rebellious, hard-hearted, deceived – completely lost.

They Avoid Hard Truths, Offer False Hope

We want God’s love but not His judgment. However, His judgment comes with justice and as a result of His love. He does not want people to end up in the lake of fire. It is only when things turn upside-down, with no foreseen way out that many (but not all) people acknowledge their sins, and turn back to God in brokenness and repentance.

That is the purpose of judgment. It is yet another opportunity to turn back to God. He balances everything. Love does not turn a blind eye to sin or to wrong-doing. But you have false teachers saying judgment is not for you; it is for ‘globalists’, or for the opposers of the ‘chosen’ president, or for other wicked sinners, but not you.

Just as in Canada, where people are desperate to see another leader than Trudeau who has sold us out to the Chinese, and to the WEF, Americans too are looking for another leader, other than Biden, who has made some very serious and detrimental changes for the country.

There is not much selection for candidates, just as in Canada, so the ‘political prophets’ are itching to see Trump return to office, so that their prophecy comes true. It is nerve-racking in the way that the Bible clearly says that God sends strong delusion, and answers idolaters according to their idols. As someone who has ‘been there, done that’, I can assure you that God’s word is true, and He does what He says He does!

You will have to ‘watch’ though, some say. That is not even scriptural. It is weaving in and out of truth, that ‘verbal’ sleight of hand – deception, false hope, trickery, tomfoolery.

People are already saying, peace and security (nothing will touch us; it is as if Christians are invincible) when there is no peace, just as it is written from long ago. You will have wealth transfer, and blessings.

What if people have a problem with covetousness? Some do, even Christians. Is God going to transfer wealth into their accounts? Who gets the money, and what is the purpose of this monetary gain? Interesting…a transference of wealth right when the powers that be want us to go to digital currency, and a digital wallet.

They give themselves an ‘out’, saying that yes, trouble is coming, judgment is coming (far different from their first prophecy of the year, where you were told to get cake and popcorn, because ‘whoopee 23’).

I am being sarcastic because it troubles me that brothers and sisters in Christ are ignoring the shuffling around of prophecies, as if God is inconsistent, or as if He ‘didn’t see that coming.’ A mockery!

Please hear this, for it is truth. If you are God’s child, He will correct you if you are wrong; He will discipline. When a good parent judges that a child has done wrong, they punish according to the measure of the wrong.

That is how good parents teach, but the false teachers will cause you to believe that judgment is NOT for you, sin or not. A disciplined child can also turn and rebel; they can turn the hard way, against the correction.

God will not force obedience, but obedience does bring blessing. Jesus is so good; we can barely fathom or explain Him to the depth He deserves.

False pastors, false teachers, and false prophets have a skewed or warped perspective of what a righteous God of judgment and justice does and does not do, and to whom. Search the Bible, study and see. I am still learning, and often feel I have so far yet to go.

There is so much mixture being given out on social media; a straying from God’s word, inconsistencies – and worth repeating that so much information is given by these people that one can get lost in the shuffle.

Then, to prove they are ‘true’ they will put together all the prophecies that have come true. It is so you will never doubt them. One would have to have a list for those that came to pass, and a list for those that did not.

For one example: by the end of 2022, there were supposed to be a lot of ‘dead politicians’, visited by the death angel for their shenanigans. Charles was supposed to die before he was crowned king. Yet, people dismiss all these wrong prophecies, and point to ones that came true, which may not be a lot considering how many were given.

I remember saying that many prophets [Daniel, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, John the Revelator] died without seeing their prophecies come to pass, but most of them pertained to the end time and are beginning or are unfolding now. How clever the deceivers are these days.

Jesus said: […] if it were possible even the elect will be deceived. [Mat 24:24]

Sins of the Churches

What some people do not understand is that God is not going to judge unbelievers who are openly rebelling and sinning against Him in various conceivable ways, yet wink at the same sins being carried out by those who call themselves His people or His children. That is not justice, nor is it the way of a righteous, holy God.

Yes, our victory is in Christ. We are not of this world, but we are in it. This lifetime is temporal, victory is permanent in the eternal. All these things are true, but victory in Jesus does not mean we can sin and expect to get away with it.

It does not mean we can manipulate God’s Word to have it say what we want it to say. Yes, we stand on God’s Word, and speak God’s Word forth, but we do not ‘create’ things, and by speaking GOD’s Word, it will not override God’s will simply because it is His Word and we are speaking it into ‘whatsoever’ situation we want changed.

Our power and authority given by Christ has to do with spiritual warfare, not in getting things in the world all in order for Christ’s return. We do NOT have the same authority God has, but Lucifer (Satan) and his followers seem to think they can override God’s authority, or have equal authority.

“Take heed no man deceive you.” [Mat 24] Jesus warned the people, regarding the last days just before His return. The very first words out of His mouth regarding what to watch for just prior to His coming back were about deception.

He followed it up with three more mentions of deception. For a man that never wastes words, the repetition should be taken very seriously. We cannot expect God/Jesus to turn a blind eye to our sins.

He may be silent for a season, which often is mistaken for ‘grace’ and ‘mercy’, as if God is overlooking sin (whether idolatry, fornication, infidelity [adultery], homosexuality, theft, covetousness, whatever). Sin is rampant throughout numerous churches globally, as well as within the governments of the world.

For now, we stand on God’s Word and His promises. We abide in Him and He in us; He is our safety net, our strength, our hope and our stability. Thank God for sending the Holy Spirit to indwell the saved!

Watch therefore, and pray always, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. [Lk 21:36]

Written throughout this blog, scattered within countless articles, are the words repeatedly to ‘watch and pray’. That is what WE are told to do; I continue to echo the words that come from the Bible because it is THAT important.

As stated in the last article, Prayer can change anything, [Part A] two-part chapters, [Part B] . The title says it all.

Idolatry, deception, no fear of the Lord…

Sins of the Churches and Governments

God’s judgment must come. In fact, it has already begun (as stated before a few years back, it has already begun). As mentioned in the previous article, I have a folder with the same title as this portion of the article. This world is so steeped in sin that it is no wonder that God is allowing evil armies to be stirred up to carry out His judgments. Search the Bible.

People call it fearmongering. They hated the ancient prophets for the things they prophesied that were coming. Some, such as Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos, et al, were martyred, murdered for what they spoke.

Rebellious nations, including God’s own people (Israel), throughout the Bible, suffered invasions of evil kings and armies due to their idolatrous, riotous carrying-on. The first church began on the day of Pentecost, where 120 people were gathered in an upper room, worshipping God and praying, when a mighty wind blew and each person had a tongue of fire appear upon them. Each was filled with the precious and Holy Spirit.

Even back in the days of the ancient prophets, there were thieves who stole God’s words from other prophetic messengers. [Jer 23:30] In the time of the apostles, idolatry was already a problem. Paul saw an inscription with the chiseled words: To the Unknown God [Acts 17:23]

Call to Repentance

godly sorrow

Too many people are not repenting, even amongst God’s own people. There are some who act as if they have suddenly forgotten the meaning of certain words, such as fornication. To them, fornication no longer means ‘sex outside of marriage’.

Instead, it has somehow morphed into ‘adultery’ (sex with married person), and they excuse the sin, even when you point out scripture such as [1Cor 6:18]. To them, marriage no longer requires a license, even though that is the acceptable and understood law for our culture. “Just a piece of paper” is what the license is called, and that expression has been around for 70 years or more, but became very popular in the ‘hippie’ generation (60s, 70s).

Flee fornication. Every sin that a man does is without the body; but he that commits fornication sins against his own body. [1Cor 6:18]

Others seem to have suddenly become sinless, but if they slip and do something sinful, instead of humbly acknowledging it and turning away from it, they justify it with “God understands”, or the newest excuse that I have heard is: “I’m not perfect; we all make mistakes. Nobody is perfect,” and the shame of sin is shrugged off as a mistake.

And people parrot the false teachers, “Right, we are not perfect; we all make mistakes…”

It is like the Lord said: Every way of a man is right in their own eyes: but the Lord ponders the hearts. [Prov 21:2]

Is that not what the devil himself does? He takes the truth, twists the meaning, wraps the deception in truth, and viola! He manages to deceive again. Yes, it is true that we are not perfect and that we make mistakes. It is called the fallen, carnal nature.

However, sin is sin. If our ‘mistake’ caused us to sin, or was a sin in itself, we cannot justify it by saying that we are not perfect and all make mistakes. Adam and Eve would not have got away with that statement, and neither will anyone today. Own your sin – meaning, take responsibility for your choices and actions, and repent…turn away from it.

That excuse is being used for false prophecy, false teachings [doctrines of devils], traditions of men, denial of or hiding sin. “None of us is perfect – God understands that. He made us.” O, He understands alright! And judgment is coming upon all the nations of the world… including God’s own people if they are sinning.

Sin is sin. No one likes the word. No one likes to make mistakes, or admit a sin. It is not comfortable. Whether we like to admit it or not, we must daily fight our carnal [fallen] nature, which is prone to pride and selfish yearnings. Our carnal mind is enmity against God. [Rom8:7]

To deny this is to deny God’s Word. It puts one on the well-greased slope of ‘grace’ that ends in a pit of sticky sins, and slimy snakes. The quicksand of deception will swallow you up; it is so watered down that it will consume you, unless you repent.

When we acknowledge the truth of our adamic nature, and humbly confess our shortcomings, or the ‘unsugar-coated’ word, which is sins – to the Lord; the Holy Spirit earnestly and gladly helps us. Please read 2Chronicles 7:14,15.

However, if you listen to certain prophecies or sermons, judgment is only upon the so-called elites, global elites, powers that be (choose your phraseology) …never upon God’s own people. Poppycock! Claptrap! That is false hope; that is tickling the ears of the people; people pleasers. It is a lie; deception.

The blood of Jesus will wash us clean if we mess up, which we may do whether we want to or not. But we have to be real before God, who knows all things anyway, and confess our mess – yes, S-I-N (the word no one likes). It requires humility and a fear of the Lord.

Whether it is a thought, word or deed, the Holy Spirit is more than willing and able to help us. We do not have to sit in the vomit or wallow in the mud. Christ will wash our filthy robes, cleanse us in His blood, purge us, put on a new robe, and forgive us. He throws our sins far away into the sea.

He will turn again; He will have compassion upon us; He will subdue our iniquities; and You will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea. [Micah 7:19]

Israel in the OT (God’s chosen people) consistently messed up. Have we not all messed up at some point in time? Read about God’s longsuffering (patience), eventual, yet righteous anger (the living God is not mocked), and the judgments He sent forth. Many times His people were fighting off invasions that came as judgments.

Justice prevailed and judgment went forth, not only upon wicked kings and pagan nations, but also against Adonai’s own people when He deemed it necessary. Why? To turn the people back to Him when they once again acknowledged their sins, and professed His Sovereignty, holiness and justice. God is always about salvation and deliverance.

As we mature, we overcome many areas by the help and grace of God through His precious and Holy Spirit, but we never quite ‘arrive’ whilst we are in these earthen vessels. Let us not deceive ourselves. The Word of God guides us, telling us what to do when we stumble. (Yes, some believe they never stumble ...not in thought, word, or deed. I pray the Lord helps them…in fact, helps us all.)

When we stumble, we rise back up. [Prov 24:16] What does the Word of God reveal to us? Israel, the chosen nation of God, many times faced the judgment of God for their rebellion; their rejection of God; their idolatry, immoralities, and more.

Some would say that that was then and we are now under grace. These are the same ones who will tell you that Jesus (God) is the same yesterday, today and forever. Yes, He is, but people, you cannot have it both ways. That is being capricious (unstable, inconsistent).

Do you not even search your own heart for anything that you may be doing wrong? If not…why not? Oh, because you are preaching Jesus; it is because some of which you prophesy has come true. Therefore, you cannot be in ‘sin’, and if you are, God will overlook it because He sees your heart. Is that it? Be very careful, my friend…

Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name? and in Your name have cast out devils? And in Your name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from Me, you that work iniquity. [Mat 7:23,24]

Will You Follow the False Ones?

People who twist scripture accuse others and Satan of twisting scripture. Who is the author of confusion? Satan is subtle, crafty and clever, very clever. There are people who would take a letter that someone wrote them and manipulate the content so that they can answer it according to their ‘wisdom’.

It is done for an advantage to ‘self’, and the most astounding thing is that when it is a Christian, it is obvious that there is no fear of the Lord. Would they ignore the prodding of the Holy Spirit to stop what they are doing? One would be surprised at what goes on behind the scenes.

They forget the words of David, who knew if he soared to the heavens, or went to the depths of the sea, or hid in the deepest cave, or even made his abode in the grave, God would be in all those places (that is majorly paraphrased). [Ps 139]

O, the tears that are spilled over the evil in the world, even amongst some of God’s own people. Jeremiah was called the weeping prophet. I am now old enough and have seen enough in my life to begin to understand the weight upon the ancient prophet’s shoulders, and how he abhorred sin. Few, if any, believed what Jeremiah said he saw or even believed the words from the Lord that he spoke.

And if the false teacher or false prophet wonders why anyone would think such things of them (that they are unrepentant), it could be that the sin continues (as hidden). They believe that they have special favour with God as His ‘anointed’, and that He has ‘led’ them to the sites where they steal from. They say, “Judge not – touch not God’s anointed.”

If ever scriptures were taken out of context, those two are up at the top of the list, especially with those who ‘prophesy’. It is used by pastors/preachers and ‘prophets’ who do not want you to trouble them in any way; nor critique or challenge anything they say or do.

They are God’s ‘anointed’ (they believe), and if you so much as put one of their hairs out of place, look out! Friend, do you not know that in these days, all people who are filled with the precious and Holy Spirit are ‘God’s anointed’? Do you not see how God is even now calling you to repentance, to stop what you are doing and to actually trust in HIM?

Many have misused and twisted scripture about God’s anointed and doing the prophets no harm. It goes back to the beginning, when the Israelites were just being formed. It goes back to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. God protected them because He had a plan, a people being formed, a nation from which the promised Messiah, the long-awaited Saviour would come from.

It is not meant in the same way today. Where is a ‘new nation’? Where is the nation where the promised Saviour/Messiah shall come? There is none because Israel (Jacob) was the new nation. Israel were the chosen people, and Judah was the tribe that the Saviour, the Messiah was to come from. He has come already, gave His life, was resurrected, ascended to the Father (God), and will return. Not long now.

God’s People Do Suffer

Nigeria

When God anoints a person, it does not mean a life without troubles. All of God’s people suffered. It does not mean that no evil will touch God’s people because many good people suffer tragic things. We must be realistic.

Start with the Bible. Look at how God’s people suffered. Most of the prophets and the apostles were murdered (martyred). Today, we have brethren that are being massacred strictly because they are Christians.

Look at what is happening in oppressed countries, Nigeria, China, North Korea, Pakistan, India, South Africa, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan…the list grows. But we Christians in the West are somehow ‘more’ blessed, and can expect wealth transfers, and victories unlimited.

We already have victory in Christ. No matter what happens in this life, He is our hope in glory. Let us keep things in context though. Love speaks the truth, whether people want to hear it or not.

‘Anointed’ does not address merely preachers and prophetic voices, and it does not mean that God has exalted prophets above everyone else. He exalts His beloved Son, Jesus/Yeshua. [Acts 2:33] He lifts up the humble, and resists the proud. [Jam 4:6] God is good, and His mercy endures forever. [Ps 136]

Look at the Nigerians that are being killed in the 1000s, simply because they are Christians. Men, women, and children, kidnapped, enslaved, raped, tortured, murdered, brutally cut up and bodies burned. No one wants to hear such realities. Well, face it, because hundreds of thousands of God’s people suffer every day in countries that do not protect Christians.

What did Jesus say to the Pharisees, over two thousand years ago?

Therefore, also said the wisdom of God, I will send them prophets and apostles, and some of them they shall slay and persecute: That the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from the foundation of the world, may be required of this generation; [Lk 11:49,50]

And Stephen, a deacon in the early church, was stoned to death for what he spoke to the authorities, the religious men who were judging him.

Which of the prophets have your fathers not persecuted? And they have slain them which showed before the coming of the Just One; of whom you have now been the betrayers and murderers: [Acts 7:52]

Guaranteed the true prophetic voices today are not as popular as the false. Many of the false take from sources that are not of God, but say they are from the living God. There is mixture, inconsistency, error, but so much is being spoken that people forget.

People idolize people today. Have you ever noticed how some will bow down before a musician, as if they are some kind of God? It really troubles me. People say they do not bow down to idols or to people, but stand back and watch.

There are popular people who will post the prophecies that came true, but subtly shuffle the ones that did not come to pass under the proverbial carpet. These people give out so much information that it is difficult to keep up with who said what when.

Such as these rely on that. People forget. In this day and age, when so much is coming at us from all directions, we all forget things. The true messengers will not bring news that pleases the multitudes, but will obey the Lord, according to His Word. What they speak will be balanced because God does everything decently and in order. Satan authors confusion.

Does warning go out to the body of Christ to humble themselves before the Maker, the Omniscient God, and ask Him to shine His light in every nook and cranny within, to expose all that is not of Him? We all must search our hearts and ask the Holy Spirit to search it also, in case we deceive ourselves.

Do we admit that we must get a beam out of our own eye in order to help a brother or sister with the splinter in theirs? Or do we just go around accusing people of being religious or legalistic because doctrines are questioned, or prophetic words or messages?

The old saying my mother used to say: Me thinks the man protests too much! (it is like throwing a curve ball to have people look in the opposite direction, and miss the deception at hand).

Idolatry, deception, rebellion, lawlessness…

Judgment Falls Upon Rebellious, Idolatrous Nations

As the adage goes, history repeats itself. As I learned long ago from the Word of God, and often repeated over the years, Adonai warns and warns, long before He passes judgment, always giving people (such as Nineveh, Sodom, Gomorrah, Babylon, Jericho, Israel, etc.) room to repent.

Yet continuously, the people justified their actions, and went on in compromises and in sins. Even today, there are some who call themselves God’s people, yet they can be stiff-necked, still resisting the Holy Spirit. There are many false prophets today who pacify their followers, but the hope they offer is false, the future they describe is prefabricated, a castle in the air.

It is not according to scripture, yet it is so wrapped around truth that to separate them would be like trying to separate tares and wheat. The timing has to be right to separate the two, or else the good wheat will be destroyed along with the tares.

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest, I will say to the reapers, Gather together the tares first, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into My barn. [Mat 13:30]

Many today are attracted to sin by seducing spirits offering every kind of allurement [from covetousness to idolatry, from fornication/adultery to homosexuality, to prosperity and wealth, from horoscopes to witchcraft, from false doctrines to apostacy, and every other vile thing imaginable].

People are accepting erroneous false doctrines simply because it is presented by a charismatic popular person, as more false teachers and false prophets promote such, but not necessarily under those names. Andrew Strom from New Zealand has dedicated several years warning people about the truth regarding false prophets, NAR, the Kundalini spirit, and much more.

More false teachers and false prophets have learned to avoid those ‘labels’ due to the ‘knowledge’ the internet offers (eat from the tree of knowledge of life and death). The serpent still has the same modus operandi, yet the false ones promote the teaching and beliefs by selecting a pinch here and a tad there of some truth.

It is such an array that it makes it harder to pinpoint, but in reality, the core teachings branch out from prosperity [Word of Faith] teachings, NAR, seven mountain mandate, Latter Rain etc. This is going on within an appalling number of churches.

There are churches that have good pastors, caring for their flock according to the commands of Jesus (Yeshua), and obedient to the Word and to the Lord, preaching the true gospel, true doctrine; but they are getting harder to find. They often get negative feeback. However, scripture forewarned us about the last days.

So many churches today have ‘mixture’. People hear ‘some’ truth, and do not search further; or because they like the leadership, they do not bother to ‘try every spirit to see if it is of God’.

There are those who present truth (taken from others), but corrupt it with wrong or misleading interpretations, twisting parts to suit their agenda, or keeping truthful parts out that will not stroke the ears of their followers favourably.

Yes, that may sound harsh, but it is a reality. It is not to critique as much as it is to warn. That is what the ancient prophets, the apostles, Jesus Himself, and His disciples such as Stephen [stoned to death for speaking truth] [Acts 7:58-60].

Another example is Trophimus [an Ephesian, a Gentile Greek, who accompanied Paul on his third missionary trip] [Acts 21:29]. So from the ancient prophets to the apostles and their travelling companions, and our Messiah Jesus Himself, all spoke against the false, and it often cost them their lives.

Deception, pride, false doctrines, false teachers, false prophets, idolatry…

Judgment Upon the Nations

Woe to her that is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city! She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted NOT in the LORD; she drew not near to her God. Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they gnaw not the bones till the marrow.

Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law. [Zeph 3:1-4]

Through the prophet Zephaniah, the Lord continues. He speaks of being just, and how each morning He brings His judgment to light without fail, but the ‘unjust’ know no shame – they will not acknowledge their sin. It is as if they either do not believe God sees the heart, or if He does, He sees nothing wrong in theirs. They refuse to repent or stop their lying.

I said, Surely you will fear Me, you will receive instruction; so their dwelling should not be cut off, howsoever I punished them: but they rose early, and corrupted all their doings.

Therefore, wait upon Me, says the Lord, until the day that I rise up to the prey: for My determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour upon them My indignation, even all My fierce anger: for all the earth shall be devoured with the fire of My jealousy. [vs 7,8]                                               

These words are for today as well. Zephaniah spoke of the sins of Jerusalem, and her refusal to admit they were impure morally, refused the instruction of their God, and were in fact, not as close to God as they wanted people to think.

Just as today, there were those who listened, and God saw. But overall, the majority ignored His daily urging for righteousness and repentance. Judgment is falling upon the nations, just as the Lord said back in late 2019/2020, but again in January 2023.

The Great Tribulation will be to cause people to see their helplessness against a Sovereign God. The purpose of the ‘Trib’ is to give people yet again, another opportunity to turn back to God, to fall on our knees in brokenness and admit we were attracted to the dark side, worshipped the creation more than the Creator, and need to be broken with godly sorrow and humility. Then, God will move and will forgive, restore and comfort the people.

This is not a game. It is not some competition. It is war, and Satan goes for ‘keeps’. His plan is to ultimately ‘destroy’ us, but there will be those who willfully refuse Jesus, but not necessarily in a direct way.

Please listen to what these prophetic voices are saying. This is worth repeating so that you will discern for yourself. Not all of them are speaking for God. Much of what they say comes from sources. It is not from them personally spending time with God. It is getting harder to discern; we need the help of the precious Holy Spirit.

Judgment Upon Some of God’s Own People

They call themselves prophets, perhaps in an ‘indirect’ way, like reading ‘touch not God’s anointed’; ‘do My prophets no harm. These messengers will speak of repentance, even justice and judgment. In that respect, it is different from the ancient false prophets, but only because of the internet. Much of the ‘judgment’ and ‘justice’ coming (according to the false prophets) is against political opposers of Trump, or against those who stole the election, or against the “globalists”, never God’s own people. Well, that is plain wrong!

God cares about His people and if His sheep go astray, He is going after them. He will reveal the discipline of a Good Shepherd. Like it or not! No child likes being disciplined or punished at the time it is dealt out, but in the end, it makes the child secure, and he grows up learning ways that he will not depart from later.

Doom and Gloom or Justice and Salvation?

I have given example after example over the nearly two decades of writing (using myself as an example) to reveal that ‘judgment’ is not a bad thing. With the living God, judgment is always linked to ‘justice’. God’s judgment is not corrupted as the world’s is – He is just!

He is merciful, and full of grace. Our wisdom is foolishness compared to His wisdom. When the Lord has judged a sin of mine in the past, it hit home hard. Why do you think I use the sword (like a Samurai or the Masamune – fighting swords, some of the best) when I speak of God’s work in us?

God’s (Abba’s) work is very detailed. The furnace of affliction is so that we can be shaped, pounded, molded. The waters of separation cool things down. It is not senseless or cruel, but a very important step in the process. Repetition is necessary.

Often judgment places us in a furnace of affliction; at times, the heat is increased seven times hotter (more difficult, very intense). The steel of a sword must sustain the heat of these intense fires, then removed, and pounded repeatedly, shaped, folded, pounded again.

Then, the blacksmith does ‘quenching’, which is dipping the hot metal into water for rapid cooling. This helps the forger to control the strength of the metal, and keep it from being brittle (easily broken). The process is repeated.

The purification, the repetition, produces a topnotch fighting weapon. It must be proven worthy to place into the hands of a strong and mighty warrior. Judgment is likened to this process. The end result is clearly meant for salvation, to turn rebellious hearts into a mighty weapon in God’s hand, for we are in a spiritual battle, whether one admits it or not.

So, a person can see it as doom and gloom, or they can see it as judgment and justice in the hands of a competent CREATOR, whose desire is for His creation to come back into the proper order of things. So great is His love, but He is not fluffy-wuffy, wishy-washy or namby-pamby.

The truth is for all people, all tribes and clans, all tongues, all nations. It is not a popular message, but it is a true one. Peter warned of God’s longsuffering (which has been about spent), as well as His desire for all to come to repentance.

If you have heeded His warning, repented, been cleansed and restored, stand your ground and speak forth, reaching out to help others. Time is short. Please consider carefully, pray and go as led of the Holy Spirit…each of us with different giftings, finances, and abilities, yet in Jesus, we have been given power and authority to do spiritual warfare.

Do not forget the armour. [Ephesians 6]

How the false prophets randomly insert their lies is done so smoothly and subtly, so cleverly that the lies generally go undetected because of the methodology and the intertwining. Satan always took God’s truth and twisted it.

He also continuously wraps lies (deception) in truth, so that people see or hear the truth but not detect (discern) the hidden lie. Today’s false prophets have the internet and pick up new ways to deceive the people. Satan still covers his lies with truth, so people see and hear truth, and then do not bother to ‘test’ the spirit to see if it is of God, when he brings out the lies – subtly.

They avoid the ‘telltale signs’ that alert people to wolves or false prophets. However, they cannot do it to 100% perfection because only Jesus was/is perfect. Indeed, be prepared to hear of their ‘not perfect’ statements.

Theft, rebellion, deception, false doctrines, idolatry…

Imperfectly Perfect, Children of Light

For the false ones to say they are ‘not perfect’ is a loophole, a way out if what they say fails. It works because the irony is that none of us is perfect. We are imperfectly perfect.

It sounds like an oxymoron that some wise one thought of. Perhaps that person was Glenn Marsden of the Global Imperfectly Perfect Campaign (mental health), but it is hard to say. It is in songs and other outlets.

The point is, we are imperfect, flawed from the beginning due to the fall, the carnal nature. That being said (and I have mentioned this before), we ARE to be perfect. It is written to be perfect even as our heavenly Father is perfect. [Mat 5:48] It’s a process, but it can be done.

PERFECT in the sense our Creator means, does not mean to be ‘without error’, or ‘incapable of making mistakes’. Only Jesus the Christ/Messiah was perfect. Where we are told to be perfect, even as our Father in heaven is perfect [Mat 5:48], we have to find out what word the original languages used.

Typically, we search the Hebrew and the Greek. The Old Testament written in Hebrew and Aramaic, such as portions (were Aramaic) in Genesis, Jeremiah, Daniel and Ezra. The New Testament was written in Greek, with the exception of certain words [Hebrew and Aramaic] that appear in the Greek, yet preserve the “approximate sounds of the original Hebrew or Aramaic words.”

Just “some” of the Aramaic words in the Greek New Testament are: (this is very interesting):

“My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” [Mk 15:34]; “Little girl, rise.” [Mk 5:41]; “accuser/Satan” [Heb. At least 36 verses given]; “truly, amen” [I stopped counting at 100, so well over 100 Bible verses given]. Intriguing. SOURCE: bibtheo.com (Bible theology)

According to concordances that break down the meaning of a word in Hebrew or Greek, and looking at the context in which it was used, to be ‘perfect’ is attainable for the saints. In the Hebrew, ‘perfect’ means ‘blameless’ [innocent of wrongdoing; without guilt].

If we keep a repentant heart, and with the help of the Holy Spirit, avoid sin, we will not be guilty or doing wrong. Once Jesus has washed us in His precious blood, and forgiven us, we are ‘blameless’. He paid the price – He made atonement for our sins, when He took all our sins and bore them upon the cross.

The weight of them must have crushed Him. I recall feeling the weight of just my sins, and it was more than I could bear. Jesus took it – how He bore up with the weight of ALL sins, I am flabbergasted.

Do not let Satan, the accuser of the brethren, keep you under condemnation for past sins, sins that are confessed and forgiven, are under the precious blood of the Lamb, Yeshua (my Jesus). They are thrown into the depths of the sea [forgotten]. [Micah 7:19]

In the Greek, ‘perfect’ means [in a nutshell]: whole, complete, mature. You see, to view perfect with that knowledge and understanding, we realize that it is not some unreachably high standard, but a normal process of growing and maturing in the faith. See: bibletools

The nations have been alerted. There is not one nation upon all the earth that is wholly dedicated to God, and allow Him alone to lead them. This earth is saturated in idolatry (materialism, celebrity worship, homosexuality, covetousness et al) We all need to repent and pray before a Holy God!

That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into Him in all things, which is the Head, even Christ: [Eph 4:14-15]

in the presence of His glory
