(Updated: September 28, 2025: Under subtitle - Jesus is the Hero, the second paragraph speaks of the "good witch" from the Wizard of Oz. Let it be made perfectly clear that there is no such thing as a 'good witch' - Satan is a liar.
It was written that way because in the movie, the question about "good witch" or "bad witch" is brought up. Whenever the character is mentioned in any writeups, she is referred to as the "good witch of the North". Witchcraft is called an abomination to God; therefore, it is evil. Update 2 days later: September 30, 2025: Clarification added BP)
Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division. For from now on in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three. [Lk 12:51-52]
He also said to the crowds, When you see a cloud rising in the west, you say at once, 'A shower is coming.' And so it happens. [vs 54]
You hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of earth and sky, but why do you not know how to interpret the present time? [vs56] ESV
Jesus is the Hero
Behold, I will send My messenger, and he shall prepare the way before Me: and the Lord, whom you seek, shall suddenly come to His temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom you delight in: behold, He shall come, says the LORD of hosts. [Mal 3:1]
El Shaddai, Yahweh of Israel, the one true, living God is moving across the lands of the world. Exalt Jesus [Yeshua] – not man (not any one person). This world has always wanted a hero to look up to.

Superman, Thor, Spiderman, Ironman, Jean Grey [Marvel Girl- the New X-Men], Hulk, Wonder Woman, Batman, Captain America, (and for the dark side: Merlin, Glinda (the 'good witch'-Wizard of Oz), Harry Potter, et al) are just some of the heroes that have been 'pushed' on the Millennial generation and Gen Z generation. And I do mean pushed! (brainwashed; programmed)
Those in power behind the scenes, the ones who treasure the words "global elite", are pushing hard to corrupt our youth, who are our future. Yes, the so-called 'elite' are manipulating and controlling things in every arena in life.
This is being accomplished in concentrated efforts to [collectively] "mold them" into the image of the coming Antichrist of all antichrists (Satan the counterfeiter is molding the unsaved in mockery and defiance because the 'saved' [born-again, Holy spirit-filled] souls are being 'molded' into Jesus' image [Rom 8:29]).

Everyone loves a hero. This world is desperate for truth, and for strong leadership in the right direction. We need someone who will end violence and establish peace. Someone who will replace hatred with love and unity; and lawlessness with respect for law and order. In other words, we need Jesus - the Creator of all!
Let me just add: it is not just those generations that sought (seek) a hero because it began long ago. However, the number of hero figures has increased as well as the emphasis on their 'supernatural powers'.
We have the best, but what does it take to toss the rose-coloured glasses off to see reality? Our hero is Jesus/Yeshua who laid down His sinless life for the people of the world and for all our sins (For all have sinned and fall short of God's glory) [Rom 3:23]
Christ was the only one worthy to offer Himself as a pure sacrifice in order to atone for the sins of mankind, grant forgiveness and reconcile us back to a holy God. [Rom 3:24-25]
Merlin (King Arthur story), Glinda, the "good witch" in the 'Wizard of Oz' and Harry Potter were thrown into the mix because of the seducing spirits loosed into the world in order to tempt the masses, not to mention the alluring attraction witchcraft has on people.

To multitudes who are deceived, witchcraft promises the power and control required to satisfy their passions, desires, and needs. Many believe they can actually help people with it; others have ulterior motives (to fulfill fleshly desires) - some claim it is for good, but the root is carnal. Witchcraft has no 'good' in it. Evil is evil.
To honour a man [or woman] who touched lives for Jesus Christ is noble, and there is nothing wrong with that. It has been done throughout history. For all the people who showed up at the memorial (people do want to be a part of history too, even if it is to say, "I was there"), I must admit that I was surprised to read about the volumes of people who confessed they had never even heard of either Charlie Kirk or his wife before this tragedy (self included); 90,000 people attended .
I must have seen his face before because I recognized it, but I would never have been able to say who he was before this event. Like everyone else, I marvelled at the number of people who admitted to turning the pages in a Bible for the first time ever, or for opening one for the first time in ages.
Erika Kirk also stated that there were people who asserted that they had shown up at church for the first time ever. Others declared that they prayed for the first time since childhood. To see Jesus exalted is something that every Christian should be rejoicing about: if not, please check your heart. Jesus was lifted high!
Suddenly and unexpectedly -- the Spirit of the Lord moved [Joel 2 and Acts 2]. God promised that His Spirit would be "poured out" in the last days. That was witnessed around the globe. That ought to make people pay attention because no one can deny that it happened.
To see Jesus honoured and lifted high for all the world to see is really what it is all about. But there are still a few things going on that I do find troubling. I will not be posting them here at this time, but I daresay, we all need to take heed.
Again, to honour a person for their stand for Jesus is one thing, although before the memorial service, there were many videos showing his political debating, along with some questionable comments regarding race, Trump vs Harris, and other political rhetoric.
But since the memorial, most (but not all) the clips and videos where Kirk did speak about Jesus are being highlighted. It depends if people liked Kirk or disliked (some hated) him. The position of the poster in reference to politics and/or religion definitely depends upon their emotional bias. Yet people swear they want truth.
We all do, but to go a step further, we must do some critical thinking. Do we only want the truth we agree with, or are comfortable with? Or are we willing to accept 'truth' that opposes what we were originally taught or accepted? Although the news media often veers away from truth, CBC appeared to lean more on the truthful side when they said that the memorial was a mix of politics and religion.
I refrain, out of respect, from posting more at this time. Respect for a grieving widow (who is also a sister in Christ) and her two little children, who are much too young to understand the reality of what has happened, or to even comprehend death or where their "daddy" is.
Jesus Christ is the only one who knows all things. If we want to be honourable in our position, and truthful in our view, and keen in our discernment, we need to seek Jesus. We need the guidance, the instructions, the accurate discernment of the Holy Spirit. I will explain that much at least in the next article.
People do need to be careful not to exalt Charlie Kirk up to the same level as Jesus Christ. Supporters will refute that statement, but emotions almost always override logic. Right now, emotions are high, but will settle soon. They always do.
Yes, as many of his friends and loyal supporters stated, Charlie Kirk was a soldier of the cross, but he too needed a Savior. People have said he is a Moses; and others that he is a Stephen (the first martyr).
Stephen [a deacon] was martyred (brutally stoned until he died) for criticizing the religious leaders for the murder of the [ancient] prophets, and for not accepting Jesus/Yeshua as the Messiah...NOT for political debate; there was no mixture.
Accusing Stephen of blasphemy, an angry mob of Jews and furious leaders from various synagogues [Hellenistic], overcome with emotion, dragged the deacon out of the city and stoned him until dead.
It was about blasphemy, not politics. Yet, some people may get upset if these things are said. However, it is not disrespect; it is simply a fact.
Message (Begins)
If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will HEAR from heaven, I will FORGIVE their sins, and HEAL their land.
Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive in this
place. For now, I have chosen and consecrated this house that My
name may be there forever. My eyes and My heart will be there for
all time. [2Chron 7:14-16] Amen!
I AM moving across this continent, moving across the globe.
Do not forget the brethren embracing [clinging by faith to] their Saviour, My Son, whilst under heavy
persecution. It shall come to this land too (and already it has begun).
These are the days that are as the one spoken of in Joel 2 and Acts 2.
Yet even now, declares the Lord, return to Me with all
your heart, with fasting, with weeping, with mourning, and rend your hearts and
not your garments.
Return to the Lord your God for He is gracious and
merciful, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love, and He relents over
disaster. [Joel 2:12, 13] KJV
For behold, in those days and at that time, I shall
restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem. I will gather all the nations and
bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
And I will enter into judgment with them there, on behalf
of My people and My heritage Israel, for they have scattered them among the
nations, and divided My land, and have cast lots for My people, and have traded
a boy for a prostitute, and have sold a girl for wine and have drunk it. [Joel
3:1-2]
[BRIEF NOTE for clarity: I understood that the Spirit
of God is moving across the world, not just America. He is calling for repentance,
surrender and obedience, for He has work for His servants (sons and
daughters) in the fields [harvest is ripe].
Return to the Lord. The Lord judges the nations. His people
are scattered around the world! Beware of the vultures
Now is the time that He has been preparing us for; all these
long seasons, and for some, all these long decades…He showed me multitudes in are
in the “valley of decision”. I am sure He has shown others because our Saviour,
our Messiah/Christ still feeds the multitudes with little. His Word is food
(it is Bread of life). Jesus IS the Word, come in the flesh. [Jn 1:14]
 |
| Jesus still feeds the multitudes with little |
(Jesus fed over 5000 until they were wholly satisfied, with just five loaves of bread and two fish. The Bible does not say the size; people like to say they were small for dramatic effect, but the fact that so many were fed with so little is dramatic enough.
Not only 5000 were fed, but the women and children they brought with them were fed also. And if that were not enough, the disciples gathered twelve (12) basketsful of the leftovers. [Mat14:17-21]

Message (con't)
Proclaim this among the nations. Consecrate [prepare]
for war; stir up the mighty men. Let all the men of war draw near; let them
come up. Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears:
Let the weak say, “I am a warrior.” [Jerusalem Bible]
“Let the weak say, I am strong. [ESV – English
Standard Version]
Hasten and come, all your surrounding nations, and gather
yourselves there. Bring down your warriors, O Lord. Let the nations stir
themselves up and come up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat, for there I will sit to
judge all the surrounding nations.
Put in the sickle for the harvest is ripe. Go in, tread,
for the winepress is full. He vast overflow, for their evil is great.
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision. For the day of the Lord is
near in the valley of decision.
(My comment below: BP)
"The sun and the moon darkened and the stars with draw
their shining": This speaks of a time when nature itself will bow under the Sovereign and Providential
hand of Almighty God. Yet, will the sun and moon not be darkened also in a time of
war? Will the stars not be hidden under the cloud of explosions?
The Lord roars from Zion and utters His voice from
Jerusalem and the heavens and the earth quake. But the Lord is a refuge to His
people, a stronghold to the people of Israel. So you shall know that I AM the
Lord your God who dwells in Zion, My holy mountain. [Joel 2:9-17]
Myself (and I’m sure many others), have been praying for years to be a labourer in the fields, "Here am I. Send me. [Is 6:8] People have been repeating Isaiah's words for as long as I can remember. Before I even knew the words were in the Bible, I heard countless believers earnestly parrot the prophet's words. I remember being impressed, thinking how powerful the words were - and they are!
I know the time came where I was finally mature in Christ, as well as truly surrendered, and I too echoed those words. We are sheep and long to follow our Master. When you love, trust and honour your Commander, you become a willing vessel, even if it means martyrdom.
Greater love has no man than this; to lay down their life for a friend. [Jn 15:13](the apostle John was speaking about Messiah Jesus ). Indeed, we long to be in Christ's service in whatever way we will be most effective, while still remaining in God's will.
Writing
a friend recently (around the same time all this happened), I shared my
discouragement in having written these past 17 years on the blog, and three
years before that on random sites (for a total of 20 years online) and heavy-hearted as I asked myself what I have accomplished for the
Lord.
Surprisingly, my friend had had a conversation with a relative of theirs along the same lines. It seemed that very same thought was moving around communities and even countries in synchronicity. What have we done for Christ?
I can hear some now, but wait, it’s not about works. Unless you live in a place with no technology, no media outlets, there was no escaping the constant reporting of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Like him or not, there was no way to ignore the fact that he was killed. It happened in front of thousands of youth.
That is not what is behind the thought. The positive publicity has motivated people at a time when people have been expressing weariness and depression; so yes, people are reflecting.
At any rate, the statement about ‘works’ pertains to salvation, not what we do out of obedience to Christ or out of faith in Jesus. Salvation absolutely is a free gift. That is NOT what this is about. Faith does have works my friend. The fruit of faith will be works. [Jam 2:18]
Now is the time to choose. Now is the time to stand strong, united - one in Jesus.
We are not alone in this earnest desire and the inward groaning to do more for the Father in Jesus 'name. We are tired of this truth-starved, violent, deceptive world. We long to snatch people away from the shores of the fiery pit the devil has kept them in bondage to.
Look up, your redemption draws near. The sincere ache [the inward groaning of believers] is born out of a thankful heart belonging to those of us who continue to grow in understanding (and who have learned [typically the hard way]) the urgent need for salvation (for all people), and the freedom and joy that comes from having the heavy burden of sin and (caused by sins and the resulting evil) is cut loose. The peace that passes all understanding occurs - unexplainable.
Your frame will continue shaking, but in a good way, as we work out our salvation with fear and trembling. It is all part of growing pains and the excitement of knowing our Creator.
One who does not yet know that the heavy burden caused by our sins, and the deep, nagging emptiness in the soul is a void that can only be filled by a loving Saviour. Yes, it can only be fully satisfactory when we repent with godly sorrow [deep, sincere, repulsed], turning away from sickening sins, and to be forgiven by a holy and just God. The joy comes when we get to know the intimate agape love of a heavenly Father, through the Saviour/Redeemer Jesus (Yeshua).
I am confident that we have entered into the time that we were being prepared for during all these long, hard seasons. The waiting period is almost over for many...but like it or not, there is a cost to this walk.
There always was. Remember the rich man who wanted to follow Jesus - the one thing he could not surrender, or let go of, was his wealth. He was very rich and owned much. He was very heavy-hearted as he walked away.
What is it for you - a person? something you own? a career? position? Anything that we cannot surrender or walk away from is an idol. An idol is anything that takes the place of God or comes before God. God at the right hand, something or someone dearly loved on the left hand. Which will you choose?
For what does it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. [Mat 16:26-27]
Even if you are a fairly new or young Christian, but are determined (not thru emotionalism, but thru conviction of the Holy Spirit) to serve Christ in bringing more of lost, hurting, proud and/or deceived souls, held captive by the dark side, into the glorious kingdom of Jesus, let it be known that right now the fields are ripe all around this damaged world - but the labourers are few.
We all have fallen short of the glory of God, but God provided a way through. As soon as mankind fell, right after the deceived woman tempted her husband Adam to disobey, and he did, Yahweh announced the plan He intended to carry out through Jesus the Anointed One [Christ]. [Gen 3:15]
Come and taste the goodness of God, the faithfulness of Jesus, become familiar with the undeserved mercy and grace, and the indescribable agape love. There is a very real adversary, Satan, the devil, along with his evil agents who will try and keep you away from Jesus. Ask the Lord for strength to help you to resist until you are stronger. Read the Word - faith comes by hearing and hearing by the WORD of God. [Rom 10:17]
We long to do the will of God once we have come to the place of surrender, and our hearts are filled with love. Jesus teaches us how to love like Him; we learn to see with His eyes, hear with His ears, and have a heart like His.
Our fallen [carnal] nature is not capable of God's kind of love [agape] It is a process, so do not get discouraged. The Lord is doing a quick work. That is why we are seeing such a clash of the kingdoms.
The Lord warned the clash - bless His Holy written Word. Time is being shortened as each day passes - hallelujah! It is His love for us that motivates us - and we delight to follow in the steps of Christ.
The testimonies during this long wait have been inspiring, encouraging all of us to rise up when we get weary (and to pray for one another as we watch.)
Through the Holy Spirit, Jesus/Yeshua gives us strength over these past years, as we went through whatever it is we must (individually) go through. Lean on Him - trust Him. Stay in the Word - ever grateful for the rescue that started us on the right path.

The Great Irreconcilable Divide
 |
| the irreconcilable divide - light versus darkness good versus evil; truth versus deception |
Persecution comes for the clash of the kingdoms has intensified. This is the furthering of the great irreconcilable divide across all the nations of the world is that the good Lord warned us about! Light versus darkness; good versus evil, truth versus deception!
In 2012 He said the back of America is broken; the land is greatly divided. Back then, I wondered if it would be a split of all 50 states, or would it be an earthquake...I did not have all the answers. I merely passed a message along.
Yahweh warned years ago that He was going to be separating cattle from cattle; sheep from sheep [Ezek 34] And He warned recently last year about Jezebel, the spirit of Judas running amuck.
Those who surrender themselves fully to advance the kingdom of Jesus on one side; those who oppose any mention of Jesus Christ clearly on the opposing side. This is spiritual polarization.
More violence will be released as hatred for those in authority escalates and ripples throughout the nation.
Satan always retaliates when one of his plans backfires. He thought he would ruin a nation, but he fanned the flames of faith instead that spread rapidly around the globe due to the internet and social media.
Truly , truly I say to you that he that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go to My Father. [Jn14:12]
There will be a ripping apart as the divide becomes deeper. The great
tribulation is almost here.
Choose this day whom you will serve.
Message:
Fear not; fear not! I have been preparing My people for such a time as this...and you wondered why the waiting season was so long...

Final thought: I get the sense that once emotions calm down, as it always does, anger is going to be seen in ways we do not want to see.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. [Eph 6:12]
The enemy needs bodies to possess and there are those willing to be his vessels...but this life is temporal, as are these bodies. Jesus won the war on the cross, and it was sealed when He was resurrected from the dead. "It is finished!"
Having blotted out the handwriting in the decrees against us, which was adverse to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross.
And having disarmed the powers and authorities [principalities and powers], He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross. [Col 2:14-15] BSB (Berean Standard Bible)
Those of us who have lost loved ones, or know someone who did, we know that grieving has many faces, many pitstops and starts, a rollercoaster effect, waves of emotions to still, dry land, to unexplainable spurts...
I will reserve further comments at this time. Too many are emotionally moved still. There IS one thing I do thank GOD ALONE, through Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit (the GODHEAD), and that is --- thank You Lord for all those who turned to YOU in this dark hour.

Your glory caused it to shine, holy King and Lord. Jesus, You are high and lifted up as the one exalted. nearly every speaker mentioned your name. Erika made sure you received the glory due Your holy name - none can deny that, and if they do, they prove themselves a liar. Whether you liked Kirk or not, Jesus was honoured. Satan lost that battle, but we are still in the war.
I join the millions who pray for the family (Erika, children, parents, relatives), friends, and associates of Charlie Kirk. To You be all the glory, praise and honour Jesus/Yeshua - let us carry on for we have no other god before you
I posted the following scripture just shy of two weeks ago (Sept.20), but it is worth posting again. God's Word nurtures the soul.
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints. [Ps 116:15]
Please be a comfort to the families of the persecuted mercilessly and senselessly (executed, martyred, assassinated) overseas, as well by remembering them in prayer. I believe in the power of prayer. Look in the scriptures and see how many times El Shaddai (God Almighty) responded to the prayers of people. Many of us can feel it in our spirit when people are praying, as well as the harsh and cold feeling when prayer is absent; people have gotten too busy. It happens...
I am not alone in the hurt that is felt for our brethren overseas also. Multitudes have family still across the waters. It is not always just for having a Christian faith that many in foreign lands are killed, but many times people are slaughtered for political and cultural reasons as well.
Charlie Kirk was a Christian who boldly announced his faith, but he was also an American right-wing conservative political activist, influencer and podcaster. Christian nationalists in the United States view Charlie Kirk a martyr, as well as a Trump supporter/ally.
His strategy (as an entrepreneur) was clever. He founded (TPUSA-Turning Point USA) which has been described as a non-profit organization and a political advocacy group. The organization states their mission as: "to identify, educate, train, and organize students to promote the principles of freedom, free markets, and limited government."
Kirk visited college and university campuses around the States to debate them about cultural topics as well as religion, and persuade them through debates to support both conservative views and Donald Trump (he always gave away MAGA hats)
There he would have culture battles, which were known as debates, where he challenged the youth (Prove Me Wrong) with topics such as same-sex marriage, abortion, Trump vs Harris, racial issues, gun laws, and much more.
So, there is the physical side of it all, where carnal nature can come in to play.. But the other reality is that this is a global spiritual battle, as I have been expressing on here for 17 years...and so have many others.
We need to remember it is war in the spirit realm where the casualties are seen in the physical realm. The family of God extends a lot further than the United States...but if it is not near us, we can forget quickly.
Let us remember that our brethren are being persecuted around the world. And let the good Lord continue His good work in us - let us be about our Father's business.
Father be with Your people globally, in Jesus' name. May Your perfect will be done.
For His glory alone
