He Went to the Cross for All

 

Whom Jesus sets free
is free indeed!

And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give you rest from your sorrow, and from your fear, and from the hard bondage wherein you were made to serve, [Is 14:3]

In the day when I cried You answered me, and strengthened me with strength in my soul. [Ps138:3]

Jeremiah was in a dark night of the soul, a very painful time mentally. He had even cursed the day of his birth, asking why could his mother not have been his grave (meaning, why could he not have been stillborn?) 

Instead, he came forth out of the womb, to labour and sorrow, and days that were consumed with shame. Jeremiah was known as the weeping prophet. He grieved over sin, the condition of the people and the judgment of God those sins brought forth. The prophet was misunderstood, mistreated and very lonely.

 

But Adonai is with me as a mighty terrible one: therefore my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: their everlasting confusion shall never be forgotten. 

Jeremiah - weeping prophet

But, O LORD of hosts, that tries the righteous, and sees the reins and the heart, let me see Your vengeance on them: for to You alone have I opened my cause. 

Sing unto the LORD, praise the LORD: for He has delivered the soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers. [Jer 20:11-13]

Below I write from an old journal, putting here what I am led to put here. This is the last day of a seven-day fast. My heart has been to seek God, as He has patiently been asking all children of light to do (and any else who will listen), to keep in prayer and be obedient to His leading.

It has also been about surrender (wholly), keeping a repentant heart, allowing correction and any thing to be removed from me (whether thought, word or deed) that is not of Him.

For all of us, it remains a work until the day we leave this world, and this corrupted flesh. Yet meanwhile, the Lord began a work in all of us when we were born again, continuing it until the day we pass, or the day Christ returns, whichever comes first.

Jesus went to the cross
for you, for me - for ALL

Taken from one of my numerous journals. This one is older, but I noticed that throughout the years I would make notes or references I go through my books randomly, when and if led. Sometimes they sit for years. Below is from an old journal…

[Message starts]

Nov. 7, 2012 – [Lord] >> “Now it begins…” Now – there is a great divide among the people, and anger and rebellion is stirred up as a troubled hornet’s nest.

The West shall be in great pain; they shall be greatly hurt. The backbone of America is broken; it is severely fractured. The days of great woes, great sorrows is coming, but also great blessings that many have waited for.

 

                                         [5 months later]

 

On April 9, 2013, the Lord said (He speak deep within my spirit person): “The strategies and tactics of those who follow Satan (Lucifer) have been employed a long time. The desire for a one-world government and ruler did not expire when the building of the Tower of Babel ended, or with the death of Nimrod.

 

The plans have been carried out covertly. The adversary is patient to a degree now that he knows his time is short. All has escalated. Although some things are happening covertly still, there is less concern about hiding things.

Satan (Lucifer) and demons are proud and have lifted themselves up brazenly. They have been called forth by evil people through rituals, ‘prayers’, and blood sacrifices.

This is a multi-layered, multi-dimensional structure that is being carried out by those on the dark side, both in the physical and in the spiritual realms.

 

[Note: I understood the Lord to mean “unholy” prayers (witches and those in the occult do call them prayers – Lucifer’s counterfeit). I understand multi-layered to mean from the average person to the oligarchs.

This  just added today for this post, April 6, 2026: >> “Oligarchs are extremely wealthy and powerful people who rule or heavily influence a government, typically in a small group known as an oligarchy.”

SOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oligarchy  BP]

 

There are evil entities in all physical levels: Media, arts and entertainment, judicial, social, business, educational, military, religion. I understand multi-dimensional to cover from physical (flesh and blood), to AI [artificial intelligence], 3-D prints, holograms, teleports, to spiritual realms (remote viewing, occult and demonic).

 

But born-again children of salt and light have Jesus/Y’shua.

Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. [Jn 15:13]

The days are grossly dark and steadily growing darker. All My people see this who are abiding and cleaving to Me. [Note: This was written April 2013, nearly 9 years ago => Mar 5/22]

 

Do not walk in fear and unbelief. Walk by faith and not by sight. [2Cor 5:7] Remember I AM for you and not against.

Do not look around you in terror or dismay. I forewarn My people. I always have. As you abide in Me, I reveal that which is to come. Wait upon Me; trust My timing. Hold fast to your faith. Stay strong in Me [Yeshua/Jesus]

 

Remember your warfare is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, and against spiritual wickedness in high places. [Eph 6:12]

 

Therefore, I urge you to keep on the full armour that I provided, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. [Eph6]

 

I lead one day at a time, one step at a time. My glory is about to fall upon the Body. (of Christ). What must be will be.

[End this  message]

I understood that Abba does not mean false prophets, false apostles, false teachers, or any [false ones] who hide behind the large shield of religion. But in God’s eyes, that shield does not cover them. They covet fame, [ill fame = notoriety], admiration, popularity, flattery, prosperity (wealth and riches).

They want the glory, but insist it is all for God, only He sees the heart. It does not matter how many “good deeds” (humanitarian) they do (whether that cause is for people, young to old, or for animals).

 

God alone sees the heart. Even when charming leaders say all the right words, say all the right scriptures, and do all the right things that impress the masses such as giving to worthy causes, if they are doing it for the wrong reasons, it does not impress God or bring Him glory (popularity, followers, possessions, or filthy lucre (though the majority deny having such desires or passions).

Most deny that what they doing any of the above – except Kenneth Copeland, Joyce Meyer, Jesse Duplantis, Oprah Winfrey, TD Jakes, or some other wolf [wolverine]. They do not feel guilty taking money from the poor. They brag that their riches are due to “faith”, being righteous (God’s anointed) and their good works.

 

They may be deceived but not know it. Everyone has a chance to repent and turn from sin as long as they have breath in their mouths, and be forgiven no matter how much wrong they have done (except blasphemy of the precious and Holy Spirit). Yes, all can be forgiven if they repent and turn – but sadly, most of the wolves will not until it is too late.

 

If they seek truth, God will reveal it. It will hurt (coming out of deception – I know, I have been deceived before), but the precious Saviour will forgive the broken and contrite heart, filled with godly sorrow. Then healing and restoration will come, for the sinner’s sake, and for the glory of Almighty God.

 

The lake of fire is real. Let us not be proud, for all of us missed the mark; all of us have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. [Rom 3:23]

 

Healing and restoration are about to occur throughout the Body. Indeed, it has begun. Rebuke fear and unbelief. Fear not. Look up for your redemption draws near.

 

Whether it be good, or whether it be evil, we will obey the voice of the LORD our God, to whom we send you; that it may be well with us, when we obey the voice of the LORD our God. 

Be not afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom you are afraid; be not afraid of him, says the LORD: for I AM with you to save you, and to deliver you from his hand. [Jer 42:6;11]

 

April 11, 2013

Walk humbly with your God. [Micah 6:8]

 

As F.B. Meyer [English Baptist clergyman (1947-1929) once wrote:

 

“Few have known more sublime truth than Balaam [Mic 6:5], but he loved the wages of unrighteousness, and this eclipsed the divine radiance that became overcast and finally overwhelmed.” (End quote-BP)

 

Also be assured that much of what is going on in the headlines is a distraction from what is going on behind closed doors and within secret meetings. Indeed, you must be aware of all that is going on in the world, within your own neighbourhoods, and within your own households. Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves, for you are amongst wolves …in all the nations].

There are enemies in the camp. April 11, 2013

 

December 24, 2022

 

No obscurity in my way (the Lord had spoken this into my spirit).

[A personal word I received - I share publicly only with hope to help another]

Now you shall speak forth prophetic messages purely, for there are no obscurities in your way. You came under strong delusion because you would not receive the truth, but rather (turned) chased after a lie (an idol).

 

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. [2Thes 2:12]

 

I have written about this before off and on throughout the past couple of decades, and repeat briefly here for one reason and one reason alone. We all can compromise, but we will surely face consequences. Especially if compromise morphs into disobedience, such as what happened to me.

 

Although unsaved, when the Lord came to me at a time I was beaten physically beyond recognition, I made an unwise and costly choice. The Lord revealed to me that the man who beat me up (my boyfriend at the time, but who fled the province after beating me up so badly to avoid charges), was not to be my husband. The Lord was calling me, and what did I do?

 

I did not see it as disobedience or compromise, but it was that – and worse. Idolatry! I said, “O Lord, no!” (Like Paul on the road to Damascus, although unsaved, also recognized Jesus the LORD.)

 

Marriage happened four years after that day, with more breakups in-between and during the years, more abuse, and three beautiful children later. (The first child was born nine months after Jesus told me the woman beater was not to be my husband.) Two were born within the four years of marriage (with separations being nearly half of that 4 year commitment).

Idolatry – choosing a man over God (Jesus), which is worshipping the creation more than the Creator. Idolatry is anyone or anything that we honour and put before God Almighty.

Friend, if this is you, stop. The consequences can be horrific. The last time we separated was when I ended up in the hospital after a night of abuse. I was afraid to return home. He refused to turn the children over to my care (ages 1, 3, 7).

 

During those years, my husband divorced me for another woman. It took seven years in family court before the children were placed in my custody. Then we spent five years in criminal court for what he did to the children while in his care. He went to prison. That was 21 years ago. Consequences.

 

The Lord, in His mercy, did not allow me to be deceived anywhere else except in the area of ‘men’. Why? Because I chose a ‘man’ over him. Remember when Israel chose a ‘king’ over God? Idolatry – putting creation before the Creator. Same idea.

 

Over the course of decades, I tried to find a man who would love me, but it was not to be. Thirty-nine years; the day came when I finally came out of self-deception, the strong delusion the Lord allowed.

 

I had become a Christian after all that. The Lord had allowed me to wallow in waste, in the mire, the stench of sin was overwhelming. I cried out in brokenness and shame, seeing the foolish and wretched woman that I was.

Having been stubbornly blind to the truth, I ultimately repented with understanding godly sorrow and understanding. He forgave me. Jesus is good; His mercy endures forever.

You do not have thirty-nine years. All hell has broken out globally. Look at scripture and align the Word with today’s events. God’s Word is true. Do not allow anyone (saved or unsaved), or anything come before God. There are always consequences, and they are never good. 

December 15, 2018

When the mother of Zebedee’s children asked Jesus (Yeshua) to grant that her two sons could sit one on his right hand, and the other on his left when Jesus came into his kingdom, Yeshua answered:

 You know not what you ask. Are you able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? (And they said to him, We are able.) [Mat 20:21-22]

Then I heard the Holy Spirit whisper deep within me, “Do you remember how you pondered those words, and then slowly, yet naively, you said, “Me too, Lord. I am willing to drink of the same cup of suffering…?”

But just as those men did not know, you too had no idea…no idea what you were saying. In this hour of your suffering, My child, I say to you, Do not grieve over those who gloat victoriously and secretly laugh at you in this dark hour. For what has been done in darkness shall be brought into the light. Remember, how My accusers prided themselves of righteous indignation and laughed at My defeat?

But for the hardness of their hearts, I did not seek revenge. Instead, I looked up to the heavens and with the little strength I had left, cried out: Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do…

As my blood poured out upon the hard ground, I gasped, “It is finished.” In utter brokenness and bearing the shame My accusers put upon Me, I breathed My last breath.

But the laughter ceased when on the third day, I rose up in victory. And now, My child, hear Me and believe this:

Though you are surrounded in complete darkness and those who hate you without just cause, secretly gloat at your defeat, I say to you, precious soul that your shame shall be no more. Even though you lie in utter brokenness now as one who is dead, hold fast to your faith, for the day approaches that you too shall rise up again in victory.

You have not allowed bitterness to take root in your heart, My child. You have not sought revenge. Instead, you sought forgiveness, for them – for yourself.

That is what the cross, the shedding of the blood, and My resurrection are all about.

He's alive! He's alive!
Yeshua/Jesus has risen.

What does the Lord require of you, but to do justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly before your God. [Micah 6:8]

Which also said, You men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall come again in the same manner that you have seen Him go into heaven. [Acts 1:11]

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 

 

And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.  [Mat 24:30-31]

 

Folks, the signs are all around us…time is short. Keep a repentant heart; walk in love, but stand in and for truth. 

Saints, this world is not our home… Hallelujah - it is almost time!

For His glory alone

Discern the Hour

a loving parent
corrects and disciplines

(NOTE: Updated April 3, 2026 - I was asked the meaning of something today, so I have added a few paragraphs explaining the best I can about [Jezebel's] "lying prophetesses". Scroll down to the "violence - hearts waxing cold" picture - BP)

For whom the Lord loves He corrects, and disciplines those in whom He delights. [Heb 12:6] NLT

It is time. Now that I have corrected you and you received it, it is [also now] the time to rise up for I have given you strength. I have reached out My hand and pulled you up spiritually. You are no victim of Satan. You are a well-trained warrior. All My warriors go through intense training, hardships and testing that is double compared to others.[Is 40:2] The harder the training, the higher the purpose.

I AM the Lord of the battle, and I have sent forth holy angels to guard you and to keep you. They obey My commands. These are those who chose to remain when Satan rebelled. I AM the Lord of all creation.

My people have been travailing; many weeping over the condition of the world, the abundance of evil, and sins. Many have cried out for forgiveness, having repented with godly sorrow, as they continue their walk of faith with a ready and repentant heart. Multitudes have cried out for help to become all that I intended for them to be.

Forgive the Greatest Hurts

Forgiveness is something few offer when the offense has been most painful. To forgive is not always easy, but it is necessary. Yet Stephen the martyr forgave with his dying breath. He understood the Messiah's words upon the cross and he echoed them..."Father, forgive them."

Who has done you the most hurt? Will you forgive? 

For if you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if you refuse to forgive others, neither will your Father forgive your sins.  [Mat 6:14-15] NLT

The genuine believers have interceded faithfully, standing in the gap for multitudes. The prayers for the persecuted have been heart-felt and earnest. The days are here where persecution will increase globally. So it is written, so it shall be.

The weeping has been mingled with moaning and groaning for the lost, the prodigals, the deceived, for loved ones, for government leaders as well as for others in high places of influence and power.

My people pick up their cross daily, repenting when the flesh is weak and rebellious. They continue labouring to daily die to self, striving to overcome. It is a lifelong battle, but the joy comes when each sin is overcome, step by step, stumble, fall, arise…press on.  

The godly [righteous] may trip (fall) seven times, but they will get up [arise] again. But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked. [Prov 24:16]

They continue to rely on Me for strength in their weaknesses. We are one, I in them, and they in Me. These are My people.

[NOTE: This next part is a message from 2019 – 'only' God knows all things--BP]

I warned of a storm coming; it is intensifying. I warned that things are escalating. Great is the evil and wickedness of these days. It is indeed as in the days of Noah, and of Sodom, and of Gomorrah. 

violence-hearts waxing cold

Violence is global. Hearts are waxing cold and desensitized. The gift of life is taken by evil ones without thought. Abominations are accepted under the false banner of love.

The spirit of Jezebel has seduced the masses and they embrace her false prophets (of Ba’al) with open arms. They listen to her lying prophetesses and false teachers spewing forth doctrines of demons. Blasphemies and heresies against Me are accepted, even encouraged. There is no fear of God amongst the multitudes.

[NOTE: Someone asked about this, so this is what I understand. [Jezebel] 
"her lying prophetesses": 

It is understood that these are those who call themselves 'prophetesses'. Although with the aid of the internet, and to prove they are NOT false, these people will say, "I don't call myself a prophet", but if you listen carefully, in their testimony or in one of their 'teachings'. they do believe they are called to the "office of a prophet (prophetess) of God. Either that or something happened when they were young or unsaved that caused them to realize God had chosen them. 

Please understand - I am not discrediting true ones with such a history, but the false ones, the infiltrators: those with failed prophecies and false teaching (even if it's only partially false because remember, it has to contain truth or else few  would listen. That is what is so heart-breaking about deception.

It brings confusion; it is destructive. Unless one is grounded in the Word, or filled with the Holy Spirit and following His lead, they can be deceived. I have been deceived in my life, and sadly, I did not know I was until Jesus delivered me. It is when one comes out of the deception that then the blind eyes see and the deaf ears hear!  Praise Jesus.

If we are sinning, it is the main open door for deception, but Satan also goes for the unsaved, or the new converts. He is a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. He comes to steal, kill and destroy, but Christ came to give us abundant life (in and through Him). [Jn 10:10]

However, their doctrine is either completely false or a mixture. There is enough truth in these teachings to seduce the people, but lies are mixed in. (It is like rat poison: 98% good food and 2% poison, and it is the little bit, the 2% that kills). People, for the most part, love truth and it is because of the 'truth' that these types, these false ones are convincing. 

Truth attracts, but it is the crafty, subtle manipulation or twisting of the doctrine that deceives people. It is the same seducing spirit that caused Eve to doubt and fall into temptation, being deceived.

Many lean towards [1] prosperity (charismatic/evangelical), OR [2] prosperity/Word of Faith [<=most popular today]-very political/ NAR mixture, OR  3] New Age / occult - these are main ones, but there are others.

But the self-proclaimed prophetesses (note that in the Bible, Jezebel did not call herself a prophetess in a strict sense) today are compared to Jezebel for a few reasons (see book of Revelation) 

The biblical Jezebel promoted foreign 'gods' [Ba'al and Asherah] and used her high place in society (position) to promote false prophets. We see many 'prophetesses' placed in the "high places" in the Christian arena today, often promoting (other) mostly male, false prophets. They are countless.

Many have hundreds, if not thousands, of followers who snap at anyone who says anything negative against their "prophet" or "teacher" (such as mentioning failed prophesies, or how in just a few years they became millionaires, or false doctrine thrown in). Yet, people INSIST they are not into idolatry, but they must get their 'daily dose' of prophecy.

I remember when the holy Spirit spoke deep within me stating that many have replaced daily horoscopes with a "daily prophetic word". This grieves the Lord when people seek out the "prophets" or "prophetic" to know what is going on, rather than seeking God. If we are not bowing before a statue, we do not see "idolatry" in its many forms - anything that comes before God. 

The typical line from the prophets (who do not 'claim' to be prophets), as well as their followers is "touch not God's anointed and do their prophets no harm". That is taken out of context because it is clearly speaking about Israel (the nation) and the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. 

The people in other nations, and other kingdoms had a warning. Adonai reproved kings, and wanted no man to do His people harm. It was for then. Israel had many prophets, including Abraham, who were anointed. [1Chron 16:15-22]

Yet people use it to "protect" either themselves or their idols -- (err, that is the folks they support because they insist they do not have idols), to halt negative speech against them.

Nevertheless:...

The Jezebel spirit is a reality I believe [Rev 2:20], just like Jesus spoke about the spirit of John the Baptist, or the spirit of Elijah. Those mentioned were NOT John the Baptist or Elijah because there is no such thing as reincarnation in Christianity, but what is mentioned is that they are a "type" or "shadow" of the original.

It is possible that at the time John wrote Revelation that another "Jezebel" was around, but I tend to think it is a "type" of Jezebel (same evil spirit). The original taught people things, and murdered prophets. She was wicked, even having a godly man, Naboth, killed for his vineyard to satisfy Ahab's covetousness. 

However, unlike the original, there are those who infiltrate the church, and call themselves "prophetess" (only it is mostly in an underhanded way as opposed to flat out announcing it). There are countless false prophets and teachers who are worshipped by hundreds, some even thousands, EVEN IF they have had several failed prophecies or teach false doctrines, some even teaching heresy (Rev. 2:20).

There are many today who have scrubbed old videos with false prophecies (thank God for the people who downloaded the originals) and doctored old articles. Many have have two, three or more websites, not to mention being on nearly every available social media platform. 

People will be directed to the site that has the 'corrected' articles or scrubbed videos. They have 'staff' or a 'team' that helps. People have caught this action and proved it by posting older stuff. I do believe the part about "Jezebel has her lying prophetesses" to be speaking specifically about the charismatic, popular, prophetic types, who branch off into teaching. Failed prophecies and doctrines with error, and some that are doctrines of demons, as it is written (foretold). 

Idolatry (seducing spirits in the churches), fornication (seducing spirits; unclean spirits) and eating food offered to false gods (unclean spirits; foul spirits) is happening today, and it is not just in the Hindu religion, or Moon cult religions. End note BP]

Idolatry

Idols (false gods and goddesses) are worshipped and cults are welcomed. Witchcraft is exalted, embraced, and glorified around the world. These are indeed the days where good is called evil and evil is called good.  Moral decline is now out of control as laws are changed to appease the people. Satan has deceived the entire world, but those who seek Me, abiding, will hear My instructions and will have the discernment required to avoid deception.

Dangerous days! Dark days! Many cry out, “Why Lord, why do You allow this?” “How long will You stand afar off, doing nothing Jesus (Yeshua)?” “When, Lord, when? My timing is not as mankind’s, for I AM the Creator of it; therefore, I AM not contained by or in it.

The prophets of old forewarned of these days. I answered the question of the apostles who asked what would be the sign of the end times and the sign of My return. [Matthew 24] Although much is not understood about how this will all pan out, be at peace knowing that I AM fully aware and fully in control.

Evil has its day of rejoicing [Rev 12:12], but the time comes when it will no longer be so. Indeed, I have spoken to many about the earth splitting open violently (earthquakes) in different places. Warnings of great waters covering the lands, bringing death and destruction, have also been trumpeted.

Greece 2020

Sicily, Italy
late January 2026

Those which have occurred are nothing compared to that which is coming (fast approaching). Pray for those in Washington and New York. Woe to those on coastal lands. Woe to those in Damascus and Gaza. Woe to My people in the land of Israel who are preparing to welcome the false Messiah. Pray for Israel. Pray for one another. Pray for your own country and all that I place upon your heart by My Spirit.

Do you hear the thunderous sound of troops marching? Do you hear the sound of the trumpet? Fast and pray in these tumultuous, violent days.

(Note: I understand there are many different kinds of fasts. The Bible shows a few, but it is between the individual and the Lord. People want to fast something that has nothing to do with diet, but fasting (scripturally) always has to do with diet.

Read the scriptures if you doubt it. Whether you give up sweets, meats, and wine like Daniel, or do like Jesus [no food], allow the Lord, through His Holy Spirit to guide you individually. Medical conditions, physical abilities; there are factors to consider. It should always be between an individual and the Lord.  

Keep in mind that this next ‘part’ of the message was March 25, 2019 – six years ago almost to the day. As one can see, part has come to pass. This messenger is just that – the bringer of a message. ONLY Yahweh, through Christ Jesus, knows all things, not me – End note BP)     

Seek Me while there is yet peace in your land, for the time comes when the focus shall shift to the horrors of the West, as well as the Middle East.

Pray for those in dangerous lands. Pray for one another, particularly the lost and the prodigals. Time is of the essence. Search My Word and see that it is true.

You did not choose Me, it is I who chose you. Before the foundation of the earth, I knew all things. Before you were in the womb, I knew you. I called you forth and ordained My plan for you.  All is in My competent hands, for I love My creation.

All who are Mine are awakening and have awakened. Those who are awake have heard My voice. I have tried and am trying the hearts. Rise up. Stand strong, fully armoured and prepared. Wait upon Me.  Be sober. Be vigilant for your adversary, as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.

When Satan stood before Me challenging Job’s faith, integrity and his uprightness, Satan declared that he had just come from walking to and fro, and up and down upon the earth. Satan comes not but to steal, and to kill, and to destroy, but I have come to give life, and that more abundant.

Rise up. Prepare. All is coming into alignment. Those who worship the dark side have tampered with opening portals and vortexes as they spiritually knock upon the door of the demonic kingdom, in order to receive guidance (divination) from the demonic realm (Satan’s kingdom). AI assists with rituals and information for those seeking to practice.

Satan counterfeits. As I instruct people to seek Me, Satan tells people to come to him.  He brings the python spirit, a spirit of divination. Greater am I in My people, than Satan who is in the world. Again I say, I did not give you a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.    

It is now. The positioning is perfect, steps shall be ordered by Me through My Spirit and My Word. Each one is important and necessary –all is honorable.  You have learned (and still duly practice) to walk by faith and not by sight.

How difficult it is not to base faith on the circumstances during the severe trials, but you have risen to the level of counting on My strength, not yours; to overcome – to not look upon the raging seas, the forceful winds, or the stinging waters, but to look to Me.

Coming to Me, leaning on My strength, there is safety. When I speak, the calm returns, the peace that passes all understanding, the peace that the world cannot give.

Be patient just a little longer. Discern the hour.

for His glory alone

Direction in Dark Days

 

[Updated for clarity, 2 days after post. April 2026; corrected typos - BP]

Seek the LORD and His strength: seek His face evermore. [Ps 105:4]

Many never seek His face [presence, to know and love Him], but only seek His hand [to receive, to get a blessing].They do not look to become more intimate and form a tighter bond, but rather look to see what He can give them or bless them with. To be intimate, thankful and exalting the living God, Yahweh/Adonai.

O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon His name: make known His deeds among the people. [Ps 105:4] (respectively, in the fear of the Lord)

Why am I repeating myself? Why is Adonai repeating Himself? [about seeking Him]

The reason is the lateness of the hour (plus sometimes we can be stubborn, and need convincing). It is the seriousness of the time. It does not require a rocket scientist to understand. The world sees it because it is global. it is all around us. As we seek El Shaddai (the Lord God Almighty / Adonai), as the Holy Spirit has been urging us to, our Maker will speak to us.

Yahweh has always spoken to His people. It began in the Garden of Eden, continued on to Abraham, and continues on to today, through Jesus/Yeshua by the precious and Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father), full of grace and truth. [Jn1:14]                

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. [Heb 13:8]

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning was God. [Jn 1:1-2]

Yes, the Lord has always spoken to His people – and yes, there are times of silence, but that is the way with us as well. Sometimes we do not care to speak. Other times, it is not wise to speak.

The opposite is true as well. There are times that if you hold your tongue, your silence appears to condone a wrong, whereas you may not be afraid to speak. [You thought you were avoiding debate or conflict.] It is wise to have a close, intimate relationship with our Sovereign God, our Creator.

He directs the steps, if we will listen and obey. He does not force people, even in those times we think He 'should' intervene. There is coming judgment, as well as a 'day of judgment'. We will all be held responsible and accountable for our words and deeds.

Jesus (Yeshua) has been urging people off and on for years to seek Him, to ‘abide’, to come closer. But these past few months, there is an urgency in His calling. I repeat, Abba will never force us to obey or to come close to Him. He wants voluntary love, the same as we do.

There are times I have been deceived in the past. It was before I was saved, but the consequences of a decision [choice] had to be. Rebellion, idolatry, emotional instability (fear, insecurity, unforgiveness, to name a few), disobedience (not reading the Bible, or obeying the Word) – there are several reasons why a person can be deceived. These are but a few. Sin is the main reason.

Deception is involved in sin, and especially if we do not want to know or hear the [uncomfortable] truth. There are seducing spirits and doctrines of devils that can deceive a person, especially those who are newly seeking Jesus, and are not grounded in the Word, or have a godly teacher who teaches the pure gospel, sound doctrine.

1Chronicles 28:9 says that the Lord searches all hearts, and understands the imaginations of the thoughts. But it goes on to say that if we seek Him, we will find Him,

The new do not know the Word of God; therefore, they have nothing to compare the counterfeit to. We are in turbulent, unpredictable times. Yet, the Word of God does mention these days. I now share the Holy Scriptures that the precious Spirit of God led me to in His Word [Bible].

March 29, 2026

I am in tears (gratitude and awe) as I write this, but this morning I opened up a little red Bible (one of two small ones bought in Georgia between 2008-2009). The red is almost all worn off; it is scruffy now. Today scriptures began with:

And when they came close to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, He sent forth two of His disciples, And said to them, Go your way into the village directly opposite (ahead of) you: and as soon as you have entered into it, you shall find a colt tied upon which no man has ridden before; untie him, and bring him.

And if any man says unto you, Why are you doing this? say that the Lord has need of him; and right away he will send him here. 

And they went their way, and found the colt tied by the door outside in where the two streets meet; and they untied him. And some of them that stood there said unto them, What are you doing untying the colt? And they said to them even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go. 

And they brought the colt to Jesus, and cast their garments on him; and He sat upon him. And many spread their garments in the way [upon the ground]: and others cut down branches off the trees, and spread them on the road.

And they that went ahead, and they that followed cried, saying, Hosanna; Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord: Blessed be the kingdom of our father David, that comes in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest. [Mk 11:1-10 NLT]

I scrolled to the next page and began to where Jesus was talking:

And Jesus answering saying to them, Have faith in God. For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be removed, and be cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he says shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he says. 

Therefore I say unto you, What things soever you desire, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you shall have them. And when you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses [sins].  [Mk 11:22-26]

Forgive = 4Xs = restoration

 

Then, for unknown reasons except to hear from God alone, Jesus spoke to me through the Word written in the orthodox Jerusalem Bible, translated from the Hebrew language. I turned immediately to Tobit (a book not found in the KJV)

 

I did not know this following part until I decided to look up Tobit (since he is only mentioned in the Catholic and the Jerusalem Bibles (the one translated from Hebrew).

 

From my research:

Tobit was a righteous man who had gone blind after a series of hardships. He was experiencing great and deep depression (a spirit of heaviness) and pain. He even welcomed death – he felt he had no purpose and no reason to live.

Raphael, an angel, came disguised as a man named Azariah. He spoke comforting words to Tobit before he left to accompany Tobit’s son Tobias, on a journey. He left Tobit with a hopeful promise – that God was going to heal him soon.

 

Tobit had comforted his wife about their son’s journey: May God in heaven protect you on the way and bring you back home safe and sound; may His angel accompany you for your safety. [Tobit 5;16-17]

When Tobias returned, he used a fish’s gall to cure his father’s blindness.

The angel then said to them to not fear, and to be at peace. He assured them that he was there by the will of God; therefore they should bless Adonai and sing praises to Him. Raphael then instructed them (after the healing) to again, bless Yahweh and give thanks.

He advised keeping the king’s secret, but to tell everyone everywhere what God had done, so that He would be praised and honoured.

The words that I opened to, which choked me up and rimmed my eyes with tears were:

Take comfort; the time is near for God to heal you; take courage! [Tobit 5:10/11]

 

Jews considered Passover the time of redemption [deliverance] and forgiveness. They remember their history, when the sea split and an entire nation walked from slavery [deliverance]  in Egypt [forgiveness] to freedom [redemption]. God was with them before, during and after Exodus.

Message Begins

Before it comes to pass, I tell you so that you cannot say, I knew.

Though you were stubborn and stiff-necked [Deut 10:16; Acts 7:51], I have broken you and formed you according to My will [Is 64:8], and put within you a pure (circumcised, clean) heart [Rom 2:29] and made your hands clean by and with My Spirit. [Jam 4:8]

 

Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiff-necked. [Deut 10:16]

 

But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our unrighteousness is as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

But now, O LORD, You are our Father; we are the clay, and You our potter; and we all are the work of Your hand. [Is 64:6;8]

 

(Note: It is understood that at one time, we are as above (stubborn, stiff-necked,  sinful, uncircumcised, impure). He has broken and formed us: He is the potter, we are the clay, and the work of His hands.

When we repent, Christ forgives, and He does a work in us by His Spirit because of our Saviour Jesus. End note – BP)

 

I Am He that guides you along the right path, and leads you in the way that you should go. Thus says the Lord, keep judgment and do justice; for My salvation is near to come and My righteousness to be revealed. [Is 56:1]

 

Great trouble is coming, the likes of which have not been seen before, as I forewarned through My prophets, and through My Son. 

[Note: The Lord is speaking of the forewarnings written in His Word – End BP]

Do not join the world in fear and panic. Watch and pray. Have I not always instructed My people to do so?

Seek Me whilst I may be found; call upon Me whilst I AM near. Go forth in My name, doing My will and led by My Spirit. Stay in My written Word and in prayer (in spirit and in truth), and I shall direct you. Speak forth as I instruct.

Let them laugh, but be encouraged, they laughed at Me. On the third day, the day of resurrection, their laughter stopped. So shall the laughter stop yet again. You shall not be put to shame.

Those who wait upon Me, and trust in Me, doing My will, shall not be put to shame. The laughter is only for a season, beloved. The time has come to shut the mouths of the enemy and his cohorts.

Do not be afraid of their faces, or the words that they speak [Jer 1:8], for I alone know the thoughts and intents of the heart, and shall reward each one accordingly (in My time, and in My way).

[Think upon Gideon --BP]

(Note: The above was God’s divine command to Jeremiah [1:8], where Yahweh promises protection amidst all the negativity surrounding believers. We still go through hardships, but we must be strong in remembering He is with us. Many people want to blame God, but it all began in Eden - deception, sin, corruption, wickedness, evil, hardships - it was not how it was meant to be. 

Never underestimate the destruction that temptation and disobedience brings. On the other hand, and most importantly, never underestimate the power of our God, the power in the blood of Jesus, His resurrection, and the power and authority in the name above all names, Jesus Christ / Yeshua Mashiach

Through the Holy Spirit, we overcome fear of man (just like the apostle Peter did, and the other apostles). Fear can be paralyzing; I know, it has happened to me – and it is regretful. But if we remember God is with us, we overcome that spirit of fear with (Jesus’) power, love, and a sound mind. [2Tim 1:7]

They overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb [Jesus/Yeshua] and the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto death. [Rev 12:11]

Love the Lord your God and walk in all His ways, and keep His ways and commandments, and cleave to Him. Serve Him with all your heart, all your mind, all your soul, and all your strength. [Deut 6:5; Mk 12:30]  End note-- BP)

Now, will you be strong and full of faith, although he too doubted and asked of me signs? Or will you be afraid as the 22,000 men (full of fear) that left Gideon and returned home?

Choose this day. Choose wisely.

Lay down fear and replace it with faith.  Many are on a precipice. Do not give up in this last half hour. As you honour Me and walk obediently, watch as My promises unfold before your very eyes. This is to further the kingdom; this is for the gospel of Christ; this is for the salvation of souls.

Things are moving fast. Soon things take place like a domino effect. Many have sounded warnings over the years, just as the prophets of old did.

I see the end from the beginning. I have been revealing (exposing), dividing – separating. It is the time of separating sheep from sheep (cattle from cattle) [Ezek 34:8-17].

Yes, and just as there was a separating in Gideon’s army. Indeed, it shall all be for My glory, but for the sake of My Word, for it shall not return void. It shall accomplish that which I please and prosper in the thing where I sent it. [Is 55:11]

 

I AM uniting My true people, the remnant (globally) in this time of increasing apostasy. That which was foretold long ago is now coming to pass. Continue in My Word. Continue to watch and pray.

Pray for all I am put on your heart, for I am putting different things on the hearts of My people, so that as ‘one body’ the prayers cover all, for one or two alone cannot cover all things in prayer.

Rejoice, for I am in control. Did I not often tell you that the obedience of one affects many, just as the disobedience of one can have the same affect? Rejoice! (think of it as the time that Pharaoh was about to call Joseph out of prison)

[NOTE: It was a time of great blessing, but terrible times, much trouble was fast approaching; it was almost upon the lands (globally). Famine, hardships, and great suffering where coming upon the people-- End note BP]

I am positioning My people. Things are escalating – great troubles are coming upon the world. My people have long waited and hoped. Famine and hunger are coming to places that have not seen it for decades. The dominoes are in place and ‘the push’ is coming.

Fear not! This is the hour to be humble and seek My face.

I am calling My people to repentance, to holiness (set apart), to righteousness (right standing). How often have I instructed people to return to the old paths?

 

(Note: Searching it out seems to stress abandoning modern, destructive ways for the precious principles of righteousness, obedience and truth, to keep a repentant heart (like David, instead of presumptuous and disobedient like Saul).

Instead of following after ‘man’, or seeking the popular (or even to BE popular or ‘trendy’). Instead of constantly ‘tuning in’ to one of the ‘social media platforms’ you might find yourself scrolling on, return to the quiet path of reading the Bible or watching a good, spiritual show, or listening to some of the godly teachers (the ones who stick to truth and the pure gospel...

More often than not, these godly people are not the most popular. They may be well-known, but do not get the crowds. However, I wonder, with all the corruption and evil the good Lord has revealed  (and greatly escalating) in the last several years, people have been searching out the less popular, but truthful religious leaders and slowly their followers are increasing.

The majority of folks have been astounded at the deception [despite the whistleblowers decades ago who warned even at the risk of death, and multitudes have been murdered (by suicide or accident).It is so deep-rooted, it slithers and snakes throughout all levels in the various hierarchies, including those once trusted. People are starving for truth. (Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one goes to (God) the Father except through Him. [Jn 14:6]

It is a challenge. Observe how much time you spend on social media platforms, scrolling, watching shorts, videos, until - say, until the end of the day, 6:00 PM on the 7th day of April, 2026. 

Are we even away how much time we spend socializing virtually? Does our time with the Lord pale in comparison? This message is for the messenger (me) as well. I already began this challenge and will keep you posted at the end - so, Wednesday, April 8th --- End- BP)

A drought and famine is coming upon the lands of My people, yea – it has begun (spiritually and physically). Keep strong in Me. Stay prepared in heart, mind and soul by seeking Me, and I shall direct your steps.

 

[End message]  

 

I wonder if that is why we were told to think of the time when Joseph was just about to be called by Pharaoh? 

There is more to this message, but there have been so many interruptions and hindrances that it is now 1:30 AM. I am tired and there is another full day tomorrow. 

Idolatry is something Adonai is saying that many are caught up in, whether it is a celebrity, social media, with all its influencers and participants, a ‘prophetic’ person or religious leaders (like the Moon cult).

Adonai is calling people to repent, to turn away from idols in humility and brokenness. He will forgive through Jesus – who is the ONLY way back to the Father.

However, I will publish the rest of this tomorrow, Lord willing.

 

for His glory alone
