Setting it Right--Hold Fast-Stand Firm

OOPS

Sometimes it takes days, weeks, even months to get material together for an article. It has been brought to my attention that the message given to me through the precious and Holy Spirit on the 4th of May 2021 was missing the first part.

In going over the last part of the previous article: Hold Fast – Stand Firm   - I somehow overlooked the first five paragraphs (short ones) that the Spirit of Christ gave me.

No wonder when I posted the follow-up article regarding Israel some were left scratching their heads.

You see, in the original message given to me by my beloved and magnificent Lord, some of the KEY words throughout the first paragraphs were: "anger", "hate/hatred", "frustrated/frustration", murder

The only reason for the words being highlighted in colour is because the underlining would not show up against the black background on the blog. Therefore, when the same or similar words are underlined in the 'Israel Today' article, they will stand out as intended.

My sincere apologies for any confusion or unnecessary scratching of the head that occurred as a result of my oversight. Your understanding is appreciated.

Below I place the entire message from May 4, 2021 again, along with the excerpt from Israel Today that was posted online a month later, the 6th of June. ONLY Yahweh (YHWH) knows all things in full accuracy. He is the Sovereign living God of the universe; Creator of all things. All glory belongs to the King!

Message (given to local brethren May 4, 2021)

When a battle (attack) is spiritual it affects you also in the physical realm…Think upon Job. Think upon Peter…think upon Daniel. Yes, My child, it is hard and yes, you are frustrated and yes, you do hurt. I take no pleasure in these things but I say to you glean, glean, glean. Glean the lessons that come from these hardships. 

Do not let anger cause you to hate. Hatred is murder in the heart. [1Jn 3:15] Repent of your frustration before it becomes anger, and before that anger becomes hatred. Selah (Many are the injustices of My people these dark, chaotic days. Stand fast in My Word.)

The time is upon you. The time that has been appointed for your destiny. Why, oh why, do you think the backlash from the enemy has been so severe? You are aware now that I have been teaching you TRUST and PATIENCE. 

It is complete trust that brings the peace that passes all understanding; trusting Me as a young infant trusts its parent. It is in learning patience that you learn to endure, and all of My people are required to endure to the end to be saved. [Mat 24:13]

Look at the war that went on (the battle) between Michael, Gabriel and the dark princes (principalities; evil kings of Persia). [Dan 10:13] It was over a mere interpretation of a dream, yet three weeks it took (three in the physical realm, for there is no space/time continuum in the spiritual). 

The above are the paragraphs I had accidentally omitted, so if you would go from there to the Israelite article, you will see why I immediately thought upon this word (message) when I read the article posted online at "Israel Today" on June 6th, approximately one month later.

Below is the message posted the other day, as well as the Israel Today post, written by Aviel Schneider, which includes the link to the source (but be forewarned, the site says you must be a member to read the entire article, which I am not).

(Message continues below from word Lord gave May 4, 2021)

Yes, the battle has been long for you as well (for many of My people globally, whether in body, soul, spirit or all three), but look at the promised destiny, My child. It is a great one, one of significant magnitude.

I am here to encourage you, so that you do not give into defeat or give up. I am here to instruct you to speak forth forgiveness and pray for those who have come against you as Job did, as Moses did, as others who have gone before you have done. Do not give the enemy a foothold and do not keep building a stronghold. Smash down the walls with the (spiritual) laws I have given you.

The spiritual law of forgiveness will break down the wall of bitterness.

Looking diligently (see to it) lest any man fail (fall short) of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled. [Heb 12:15]

The spiritual law of praying for your enemies will bring forth the fruit of blessings. [Job 42:10] Those who sow in tears will reap in joy. [Ps 126:5] Forgive and you shall be forgiven. 

Pray for others and watch what I shall do for you. [Mat 18:35] Endure, endure, endure, and gain a crown of life to throw at the feet of your Messiah, My Son, beloved He is. [Jam 1:12; 1Pet 5:4; Rev 3:11]

These days will soon be behind you and then you shall say:

My Lord and My God, It is He that knows the end from the beginning. [Is 46:10] He is good and His mercy endures forever. [Ps 136:1] 

He is truth [Jn 14:17] and ...

...all that He speaks will come to pass for His word does not return void but accomplishes what He pleases and does what He sent it to do. It prospers. [Is 55:11]

Yes, My child, speak forth My Word. It is indeed a sword. When you know My will and use the sword accordingly, aligning the movement of the sword with My Will, then you shall witness My dunamis power and experience the strength of My authority. 

This power and authority has been given to those who are born again and (Holy) Spirit-filled, for such as these were given these things by My beloved Son. It is He who has given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing by any means shall hurt you. [Lk 10:19]

So it is written; so it is truth. So it shall be, for again, My Word shall not return void.

Sharpen your sword, warriors. [Ezek 21:11] for I have need of you to fight for the defenseless in days ahead…days fast approaching. [Ps 82:3, 4] The training has been vigorous. [2 Tim 3:17; Ps 144:1]

The trials and testing of your training have seemed never-ending and brutal, yet here is where the cream of the crop surfaces – out of these fiery trials comes forth that which is more precious than gold, having been tested and found genuine. [1Pet 1:6,7; Prov 17:3; 1 Pet 4:12] 

Many quit or fall away, calling Me a cruel taskmaster, yet sadly, they only offered Me lip service for their [own] hearts wax cold. [Is 29:13; Mat 24:10-13]

Stand, my dedicated warrior. An army of My holy and elect angels are warring on behalf of My people, meaning I have sent them forth to guard, protect and help My people. [Lk 4:10; 2Sam 5:24]

Gird up your loins and sing praises, [Eph 6:14; 2Chron 20:21] for the time long awaited is at the door. The appointed time…the vision has not tarried. It shall be right on time…  [Hab 2:3] Selah

Israel Today article

Israel Faces an Explosive Week

Hatred and frustration envelop Israel these days. It's gone so far that politicians are being cursed with the use of Pulsa Dinura - a Kabbalistic ritual in which divine retribution is called down upon someone. Nadav Argaman, head of the Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet), warns that the atmosphere is reminiscent of the days leading up to Israel's first major political murder.

End excerpt

https://www.israeltoday.co.il/read/israel-faces-an-explosive-week/

(End excerpt)

We need to pray for Israel and God's people. Even still they are following down a wrong path (some are, but not all; there are Messianics in Israel, those who know Yeshua (Jesus) is their promised Messiah and that He is soon returning.)

But just to inform the reader, the journalist, Aviel Schneider, who wrote the article states:

It's gone so far that politicians are being cursed with the use of Pulsa Dinura - a Kabbalistic ritual in which divine retribution is called down upon someone.  

The "lashes of fire" - the secret death curse (punishment)

Pulsa DiNura (spelled a couple of other ways) is Aramaic. "Pulsa" meaning 'blow' or 'stroke', and "nura" meaning 'fire'. It is said to be Kabbalistic; it is witchcraft. To invoke a curse or to bring down a curse (evil) upon someone as a form of punishment is indeed witchcraft, which God considers an abomination.

It is called a "heavenly punishment", but divination in any degree is not carried out by God (Yahweh) for He is holy; He is also just.  He always gives people an opportunity to repent - always! Even Jezebel, that evil seductress, fornicator, murderer was given an opportunity to repent, but of course, she refused.

Notwithstanding, I have a few things against you because you suffer that woman Jezebel, which calls herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.

And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. [Rev 2:20, 21]

So again, I ask that we continue to pray for Israel and the true Israelites because they are indeed surrounded by enemies and hatred is strong against them and building momentum, just as the Word of God said it would be in the last of the last days.

Antisemitism is increasing by leaps and bounds. Never have I seen such hatred grow so rapidly. Yet, it is not just against Jews that this hatred and prejudice is growing exponentially, it is racism globally! Truly the times we are in are precisely as Yeshua prophesied about: 

And because iniquity [sin] shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.  [Matt 24:12]

We need to pray for Israel and surrounding areas, yes, indeed. But we also need to pray for others globally (and locally, right in our own neighbourhoods and families). Hearts ARE waxing cold - desensitized, all part of the 'programming' that has been done to societies around the world, bit by bit by cunning bit.

It would be mighty hard for most, if not ALL of us [self included], but I would challenge disciples of Christ to even pray for the terrorists - jihadists [Islamic, ISIS, Al Qaeda], Boko Harem, [ISWAP, ISGS, ISCAP] and other groups that I do not know - that God would find those who would accept truth [Jesus/Yeshua - NOT - Allah], and save them from the evil they are involved in.

NOTE --[Updated: June-- That the terrorists would be filled with godly sorrow,  repulsed at the depth of the evil they have carried out; that their spiritual eyes, which are blind, be opened and they could fully see the evil. May travailing come upon them, as they groan and weep over their sins. 

May they be wholly broken, crushed, turning their back on evil, Satan/Lucifer, and all demonic activity and wicked agents. May the conviction, NOT to be confused with condemnation, be heavy upon them.

May their healed eyes recognize the resurrected Messiah, Yeshua/Jesus,  and may their heart and soul become desperate for deliverance, healing, and forgiveness. May those who genuinely repented be given a way to escape, the courage to stand now for truth (which is Christ Jesus), and to wholly surrender their lives to the one, true living God (YHWH).

 May all the evil be burned up by the precious Holy Spirit, where not even an ash remains.  May all guilt dissipate and be replaced by a heart filled with gratitude, steadfastness and thanksgiving.

Adonai, the living God, exalted through Jesus the Messiah, where He is high and lifted up - where all of creation magnifies and glorifies the holy King and Lord. Amen - End update:BP]

For the Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. [2Pet 3:9]

And the commandment to love our neighbour as ourselves gets a little harder, doesn't it? But if people in the Mafia and other gangs can be brought to the understanding and knowledge of God's incomparable love, there are surely those in these terrorists groups that can be reached as well.

We too missed the mark; we too fell short of God's glory. We must guard ourselves and keep a repentant heart, resisting the temptation to get puffed up and boastful. The Holy Spirit was sent by Jesus to help us because He knew that none of us could do any of this without His help. Hallelujah!

This they said, tempting Him, that they might have to accuse Him. But Jesus [Yeshua] stooped down, and with His finger wrote on the ground, as though He heard them not.

So when they continued asking Him, He lifted up Himself, and said unto them:

He that is without sin among you, let Him first cast a stone at her. And again He stooped down, and wrote on the ground.      [Jn 8:6-8]

 Thank Yahweh for Yeshua, our way (our[the] ONLY way) to salvation and to reconciliation with the Father.

for His glory alone

Foreboding Precipice

All day I have hoped to get this posted, but it’s been a day of distractions and delays; even an accident where the car got t-boned (none hurt). So, the post is much later than I had anticipated.

Distractions and delays will become more and more common around the world, but especially for the body of Christ. This is to bring confusion, which is a tactic of the enemy, but also to keep us from doing that which is most important, or to hinder us from accomplishing such.

The closer we get to the great tribulation, and appearance of the 'lawless one' (the Antichrist of all antichrists), the more this can be expected.

I had prayed about the possibility of al-Qaeda attacks and was to say, “Not today…” (no al-Qaeda attack today) on American soil today. Just as in July, a warning went out from MSM (mainstream media) that ISIS had threatened America with a 4^th of July, 2016 attack. 

None came. Local law enforcement agencies received a bulletin from the FBI to “remain vigilant during upcoming national holidays and military events due to the heightened threat of attacks” (ISIS).

November 8, 2016 is voting day for the American people, and ISIS once again issues a warning. No great ISIS attack will occur this date. Trust the Lord, for only He knows all things. 

If the terrorists’ announcement was to put fear into people to prevent them from venturing out to vote, or whether the strategy is to supply a steady feed of propaganda to wear the people down, matters not. God is still Sovereign.

Although a shooting took place in California that killed one man and injured two women, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department set a tweet out. 

“[Shooting] does not appear to have any direct connection to the election/polling places.”  Two nearby polling stations were closed as a precautionary measure. 

The gunman, armed with an assault rifle, is dead. We give thanks to God for His Sovereignty and that no major attack took place! It was a tragic loss, any life lost needlessly is a loss...but Satan, the enemy of all of mankind, cares NOT! 

He will influence and use anyone who is steeped in sin, or has any kind of bitter root deep within their soul 

Foreboding Precipice 

My bowels, my bowels! I am pained at my very heart; my heart makes a noise in me; I cannot hold my peace, because you have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war.  [Jeremiah 4:19]

Even so, we are still at the edge of a foreboding precipice. It reminds me of when Moses and the Israelites were at the edge of the Red Sea [Sea of Reeds?]. We are either all in, and trust God for what He says to us, or we can look back in fear at the approaching armies.

We’ve got to forget about logic when it comes to God’s miracles. Man will forever be searching for knowledge, wanting to understand all things, but we never will. 

Just as the Israelites acknowledged the walls of water that evidenced the parting of the sea, they still had to take the step of faith to begin to walk between those walls.

Yes, they were pushed to the edge, just as we are now. How many of us who are sensing the approaching danger and urgency in our spirit feel hard-pressed to make right and wise choices? Something is nearing the horizon...then how long shall it sit on the horizon before it descends upon us all? What is it we are sensing?

We must cry out for mercy and grace because Satan is trying to get many to give up and turn back to Egypt. Also, Satan wants us to believe that Jesus has not set us free, or that He will look after us; guide us, protect us right up until our appointed time...or the catching up, whichever comes first?

We must take the step of faith upon the dried land between the walls of water. If we lean on our own understanding (logic), the reality of the circumstances will bring us into fear and unbelief, as surely as it did Peter when he stepped out on the water – with Jesus (Yeshua) right there in front of him!  

Simon Peter was overwhelmed by the truth of the circumstances as he looked around. His logic kicked in and he realized that he was doing the impossible. The waters were furious. The wind slapped his wet hair against his flesh, stinging him. Shivers went through his soaked skin. He began to sink. 

Fear came upon him and he cried out to Yeshua (Jesus), 'Lord, save me!' And Jesus said, O you of little faith, wherefore (for what reason) did you doubt?  [Mat 14:31]

We must go through the baptism of fire, to be transformed and not consumed. It’s a purging, in order to complete the deliverance from bondage, even though Satan and his armies (seen as Pharaoh and his Egyptian armies in ancient days) are in hot pursuit of us.

The walls of water trembled and began to fall,
just as the walls of Jericho fell.
The Sovereign God controls all things!

The purging fire is to remove spots and blemishes (dislodging and removing the last bits of dross to purify the gold and refine the silver).  The promise comes only after the ‘crossing over’. 

There can be no confusion at the water’s edge. The first step of faith must be taken, for we walk by faith and not by sight. [2Cor5:7]

So it is written; so it is true.

In you, O Lord, do I put my trust: let me never be put to confusion.

Let my adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle. [Ps 71:1; Ps 109:29]

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire. [1 Cor 14:33; Is 9:5] 

(This passage goes immediately into speaking of the Messiah who would be born, a son – Wonderful, Counsellor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.) Be strengthened. God is for us, not against!

For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but you have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? [Rom 8:23; 31]  

I felt the weight of approaching danger. As I lay down to rest two nights ago, I saw things that I did not want to see. In fact, I tried to stop seeing what I was seeing, but I could not.

I have heard of such visions seen by others, but have never experienced one quite like this horror. There were before me, body parts, strewn about the street, but it was not just one street; it was several in what looked like a city.

The body parts of the dead were those of people of all ages, all races, male and female, men, women and children – young, old, rich, poor; it did not matter. Death was not particular… animals were also destroyed. 

I tried to escape the scene by looking away (awakening), but I was not asleep. Yet instead, my eyes remained closed, fixed on what I saw.

In the vision, I moved as one translated (suddenly taken) to another street and saw more devastation. I heard the screams of the terrified, the injured, the confused, those mourning; those crying out desperately to another.

Then the ground began to shake. The road began to heave and split. I sensed it to be my continent – North America, cities.

Like anyone else, this is not something I want to see. My heart aches – what is it, Lord? I do not have answers as to if it is war (though it is coming, civil (domestic war/civil war, civilian uprising, extreme unrest, rising violence), people versus each other and people against government (continental and global). 

Is the shaking, upheaval (splitting, opening up) of lands and destruction of people and animals from an earthquake? Or was it from missiles (from external sources or from an internal false flag)? Or was the devastation from a meteor? 

I do not know yet. God alone knows, and whomever He reveals it to. We have heard predictions of earthquakes, tsunamis, incoming asteroids and war continuously even from voices in the secular realm. 

Yet, the Creator of all things gave us the Holy Scriptures (His Word), wherein He forewarns people of all of these things. One third of people are going to die by fire, smoke and sulfur/brimstone.

By these three [plagues] was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone [sulfur], which issued out of their mouths.

For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. [Rev9:18, 19]

Bible experts all agree this is the Turks. Some mention the idolatry in the church. Matthew Henry speaks of a 'ruinous' and 'poisonous' religion that was brought in. (Is that not happening in many churches today? And it will get worse, according to scripture.)

The incredulous part is that after all these plagues and death, there is still NO repentance. Does that not sound like the Egyptians and Pharaoh? They suffered 10 plagues, death of livestock and death of all their firstborn (man and beast).

After the initial shock over from the death of all the firstborn, and the realization that it all came about because of the Israelites, who were now saved from slavery, Pharaoh and the Egyptians did NOT repent, but instead pursued the Israelites.

They witnessed yet another miracle, another impossibility, with the parting of the Red Sea. That should have stopped their heartbeats temporarily, but instead, it provoked their pride and anger, and they continued to go after them ...only to be drowned as the walls of water trembled and came crashing down, just as the walls of Jericho had.

He Who Has an Ear - Let Him Hear

Son of man, I have made you a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at My mouth, and give them warning from Me. [Ezek 3:17]

Try to find time to read Ezekiel 3. It is a short chapter of twenty-seven verses. We who are Christ’s, born-again believers, are called to be watchmen. 

We were told to, “Watch and pray…”  Why do you think it’s a narrow road? Who wants to be the bearer of bad news, when others are saying, “Peace and safety…”

We are to speak to the lost and to the righteous (followers/disciples of Christ Jesus/Yeshua), yes, both alike. We are to take seriously the responsibility, or the blood will be on our hands. 

If any of us are entrusted with a message from the Lord, will we be faithful to deliver it despite the enemies of the cross, despite the naysayers? 

But when I speak with you, I will open your mouth, and you shall say unto them, Thus says the Lord God; He that hears, let him hear; and he that forbears (to cease or refrain [from doing something]), let him forbear: for they are a rebellious house.  [Ezek 3:27] (last verse)

M

It is written...

Again we are reminded of Matthew 24, deception and betrayal abound in the last of the last days. He said to look up to the heavens (skies), and to remember how advanced technology is. Things will go on in the heavens perpetrated by man (or by demons) that are meant to deceive. What is everything we are hearing and seeing really pointing to?

The Muslims are expecting their Imam Mahdi , the Jews are awaiting their Moshiach (Mashiach) and Christians await Jesus Christ (Yeshua HaMashiach).  The Muslims and the Jews expect arrival soon. I cannot pretend to understand it fully, as I have only recently come to hear of these and have not studied the matter.

The Jews (not the Messianic) expect two Messiahs; one being the son of Joseph and the other being the son of David. That is one thing I do not understand, unless it is in reference to the ‘two sticks’. However, from what I do understand, the Jews believe the sticks represent Judah and Israel.

This is why they believe there will be two Messiahs; Messiah, son of Joseph (suffering Messiah – Isaiah 53) and Messiah, son of David (ruling Messiah). This thesis is not what this article is about, but was brought up to reveal how Christians, Jews and Muslims are all awaiting the Anointed One.

However, the Jews and the Muslims do not believe that Jesus Christ (Yeshua) is the Saviour of the world, who comes in the flesh. He came physically in the flesh over 2000 years ago, and He comes in the flesh of the born-again believer. Here is an article about the Two Messiahs that Jews expect, if interested.

I do believe judgment has started, and that it began in the Lord’s house some time ago, as that is where God said it would begin. People confuse “judgment” with “God’s wrath”, known also as the ‘day of the Lord’. It is my understanding that the saints will not experience the wrath of God.

Pulling back the curtain because:
it is the time of revealing!

The stage is being set for the revealing of the Antichrist, but there has to be extreme chaos, confusion and violence first, so that people will be glad for the peace he brings. It’s a trap, as the Scripture reveals.

The Lord God is about to reveal many things that pertain to deception. This will be to wake people up. Repeatedly throughout these articles (over the years), our Faithful Creator has spoken: Awake and arise!

Things are about to change, radically. We were warned. The Bible does not give us every single detail as to the leading up to the ‘great tribulation’, nor does the Lord reveal the day or the hour. 

We do not have an exact timeframe or date. We are told that no one knows this, yet people still do date-setting. We can know the 'season' of things by following prophecies in the Bible, but we still will not know exactly when these things happen, or exactly how they will pan out.

Jesus said we are to "watch and pray'. Words of wisdom. We 'continue' in our prayers, and wait upon the Lord. It is all any of us can do. The Lord was gracious enough to tell us exactly what to watch for [Mat 24].

Something heavy is about upon us…danger approaches. How far away I am not sure. We are at the end of 2016. Every fiber of my being senses something coming, and I know that I am not alone on this. 

It is not that any of us who understand Christ’s words are looking forward to that time because we know it will be an incredulously horrific time – a time such as not ever been seen before or ever 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]

As stated before, as long as there is breath in our bodies, we have opportunity to choose to repent.  However, once we pass from this physical realm, opportunity to repent has also passed.  Justice and judgment await all.

We long for the 'catching away'. We long for the Messiah to return because after His reign it will mean the end of this evil, corrupted and deceptive world. But it is clearly written that no one will know the time of Christ's return (and still we see people trying to figure out the year).

Only God knows, not the angels in heaven or anyone else. [Mat24:36]

Watchmen

What manner of beast arises, I cannot say. ISIS (Daesh) is only one manner of beast. How often did the Lord bring evil armies to invade the lands of His people, as judgment, in order to bring them to their senses and draw them to repentance?

Son of man, when a land sins against Me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out My hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it; Though these three men, Noah, Daniel and Job were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, says the Lord God.

Though these three men were in it, as I live, says the Lord God, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate. Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go throughout the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it; [Ezek 14:13-14; 16-18]

A sword indicates in the above verses indicate God’s judgment upon ungodly people, wicked in their rebellion against God, against Christ, against the gospel. Ezekiel prophesied of Jerusalem’s fall. The sword means judgment by means of violence, war, hostility, military slaughter (carnage).

At times, it is a nation and their leader that brings war upon a land. Other times, it is God. Either way, God is Sovereign. The ‘sword’ is only one way the Lord brings judgment. Ezekiel, Daniel, Revelation – these books speak about God’s judgment in the latter days.

Even Jesus (Yeshua) said: Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace but a sword. [Mat 10:34]  All people must follow the instructions of God for themselves alone, not what man says. In Luke 22:36, the words of Jesus are recorded.

And He said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lack you anything? And they said, Nothing. Then said He unto them, But now, he that has a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that has no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in Me, And He was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end. And they said, Lord, behold here are two swords. And He said unto them, It is enough.  [Lk 22:35-38]

The Lord has spoken about a ‘sword coming across the land’. I understood that it meant judgment is sent out and is fast approaching. In His mercy and grace, God forewarns people. He always has, and is faithful to continue to do so. Why? His agape, steadfast love - it does not sugarcoat or whitewash anything.

If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Now My eyes shall be open, and My ears attentive unto the prayer that is made in this place. [2Chron 7:14, 15]

Revelation 6:4 speaks of a “great sword”.  This is not that time now, but we are headed that way as Biblical prophecies are seen coming to fruition. Repentance is required to bring us back into unity with God through Jesus Christ (Yeshua the Messiah).

Obedience is not required simply as a ‘must do’, but as the sure way of being in God's will and the reward it brings, blessing. God gives us principles to guide us, commands to obey and a righteousness to seek in and through Christ. 

He longs to have us live in His strength, to bring us to new frontiers as He leads and to be blessed. Yet, mankind has become a rebellious people. Therefore, judgment must come to draw people to repentance.

That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom you shine as lights in the world; [Phil 2:15]

worthy is the Lamb (Jesus/Y'shua)

God’s word will be accomplished; it will NOT return void!

So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return unto Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I send it.  [Is 55:11]

There are personal promises that are about to manifest. Miracles have already begun to happen, and the reports trickle in slowly. MSM rarely speaks of miracles, or God’s hand in any given situation.

We were warned by Jesus (Yeshua) that false prophets would arise and show many signs and wonders. [Mat 24] Satan (the great imposter, impersonator) always counterfeits (imitates, copies) all that he sees God doing or that he knows God plans to do (via Holy Scriptures). This is to bring confusion, division and ultimately to deceive all of mankind. 

He will appear as an angel of light, and in the end times, he possesses the body of the man who will appear as "Christ", but will become known as the "Antichrist".

Our safety is in Christ alone. These are the days that we must indeed cleave to God, abiding in Jesus.

(*Note – I am going to be adding to this post over the next several hours, as time permits. However, since this day had so many setbacks, I will publish what I have.  I will be delving into technology, military aircraft, UFOs and more).
