While We Were Distracted, This Happened - Prt1

 (Note: Updated-starting at 9:15 May 2, 2026, two hours after post BP)

Blessed is the man that trusts in the Lord, and whose hope Adonai is. [Jer 17:7]

What's a Distraction?

Going over the archives IF one had time (don’t worry, even I do not have the time lol), but often, especially since 2020, I would mention how distractions interfered with my work in such a way that I could not post in a timely manner.

However, it has gotten so bad over the past year and a half that I have asked the Lord more than once if I am to stop writing, if I am blind or deaf to what He wants me to see or hear (meaning, is He halting me and I cannot see it or hear properly?)

But instead, He reveals to me that all people (and especially His people) are perplexed over different things. Confusion, overwhelming thoughts and happenings, everything, including the weather is abnormal. Nothing makes much sense right now. It is a chaotic, corrupted, mind-boggling time we are in.

Many are suffering in various ways. Not everyone is suffering physically, mentally, or in the same manner that another is suffering. Yet, one common denominator globally is the fact that faith is being challenged in ways that no one expected.

Situations are arising that test the character, integrity, and sincerity, the genuineness of each person. It has always been said that a person’s true character is proven in times of adversity. 

I have seen people who are thought to be so macho, so brave cower instead of protecting a woman or child. I have seen so-called ‘good men’ kick a helpless puppy for not ‘behaving’ right.

And I have seen a person who was always mocked and ridiculed as being a ‘wimp’ turn out to be a real trooper in the time of need. I am 71, so yes, I have seen both. I wondered myself how I would be in an emergency situation, but I know the times I did well was ONLY because of Jesus…and I refuse to touch HIS glory. I am every grateful to Him.

On the other hand, my life is not over and I have not dealt with many situations. There is still room to mess up majorly - Lord, help me that I do not live to see that day lol. But seriously, we all want to think we will be brave and strong, not giving into emotions (which often override logic). Let us pray for God to give us strength, wisdom and courage in the face of adversity - for our sakes, yes, but for His glory!

Many are falling away, masses are being exposed for what they managed to hide behind charismatic smiles, polished images, and successful businesses or ministries. On the flip side, we also see an exceptional number are being baptized (Kayla Gabbard Ministry is but one of many- all glory to GOD), a stirring is occurring but it is not like a ‘tsunami revival’. It is happening in waves.

The masses that were moved a year ago were moved by emotions, but these baptisms are being carried out without the media spotlight, without the emotionalism that develops when cameras and music and other means cater to the ‘flesh’. This is of God, and meant to last for an eternity, not for a day, month, or year.

Deception

Ah, it was a grand deception on the part of many participants. Drama, lies, manipulation, theatrics, all at the expense of human lives. Who would be behind such evil? One guess, and the book of Revelation said:

“Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows he has but a short time.” [Rev 12:12] Some are still clinging to the illusion, but God is the expert and master sorter. We must remember who [Satan] is the author of confusion.

There is much I intend to touch upon; however, it will have to go into more than one article. Distractions – it is a word I timidly used in an article about six years ago, around the time of Covid-19. 2020 was one of the worst years of my life, yet most of the reasons about why it was so horrific had nothing to do with the pandemic. 

I say "timidly" because at the time, I was pretty sure that I was the only one being distracted, unable to stay focused, especially when it was important. It is said that 'misery loves company'. Well, admittedly, when I found out more and more that these distractions were affecting everyone, everywhere - globally, I let out a great sigh of relief. I can serve tea and biscuits for my "miserable company" lol 

time of chaos and confusion

But it was like a paradigm shift, like the entire world got tipped on its side and everyone was out of sorts and acting irrationally. It was not just me that noticed. Numerous people reported unbelievable things taking place, things that normally would not have been allowed, or were unheard of before.

The word ‘distraction’ is seen or heard nearly everywhere now, as most people have become aware that what is being presented or shown to us is to divert our attention away from other very important things – but what things?

Guaranteed these “things” that they are throwing out are red herrings to feed the curiosity of the public, but they are NOT the important 'things' we need to know. Governmental leaders are covering up truth in many areas, all part of the plan (NOT conspiracy, but indeed the PLAN) for a one-world system and leader. 

Will it be a person or a possessed humanoid? Does that sound far-fetched? No, multitudes are beginning to see. One has to ask this question as AI speeds ahead… In 2008, I began posting about humanoid robots. Way back then robots had been created to accompany troubled children. 

They were exceptionally realistic with the facial expressions, remarkable with the emotions expressed, and the "skin" that looked real. I will be writing about this in upcoming articles because dear souls, this is but ONE of the things they do not want us to spend too much time dwelling on. Forget critical thinking - push it aside. Do not overthink the matter, simply accept what they tell us.

That is what they would like, and that is what they are aiming for - control of the people. Dystopian control of the masses, where a totalitarian government, or 'technological entity' puts in motion the suppression of individual freedom and thought. The "utopia" of the elites, even if it is maintained through surveillance, deception, fear, control (15-minute cities; own nothing, be happy - Schwab mentality, applauded by Yuval Noah Harari.

As in the Days of Noah

Yuval Noah Harari

Yes, the same man who stated once (with an interesting choice of words): "Never summon a power that you cannot control." [emphasis mine - critical thinking required]

Words of Yuval Noah Harari - he proudly shows people clearly, beyond any shadow of a doubt, whose side he is loyal to. Medium posted the article. It is written in such a way that it would be near impossible to not hear exactly what Harari is saying in that interview with Medium, regarding AI, mankind and the time we are in.

He starts off mildly, seemingly innocently, already deceiving the world as the serpent deceived Eve…it began with a seducing spirit bringing forth various temptations. He introduces Micky Mouse, none other than “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice”, appealing to the child in you, or at least, the part that likes to fantasize. Magic...a mighty wizard, sorcerer, call it as you will...apprentice.

Pass through Nazism, Stalinism, AI-built totalitarian regime, snaking a way through Hindu religion and what he calls ‘Trumpism’, claiming that Hinduism and Trumpism, both press emotional buttons. Who will be alpha?

Then, the slithering continues through economy where bad money drives good money out of circulation. This is fantasizing, isn't it? Interesting turn. He touches upon the “murderous witch hunting hysteria" between 1500-1700 (clearly opposed to the 'murderous' witch hunts... and it is true that many innocent died needlessly.

Almost cussing the new invention of the printing press when it came out in that timeslot. The anger was due to the fact that companies published about a vast Satanic witching conspiracy. It was read by millions... good is winning.

He then says, “Information, you see, need not be truthful. Something people can exploit for wealth and power, a big factor in the witch hunts." YH

So right there, Yuval Harari reveals to us that truth means nothing to him, for the truth is not in him. Is he the father of lies? To call him Satan, no, but to call him an antichrist. Most definitely. operating from the dark side, and proudly.

Surveillance, technologies, democracy, Walter Cronkite, GPT-4 AI system, alpha predator, global AI tyranny, upgrade or replacement, Humanity 2.0., Yuval Harari covers it all. I do not see too many stones, if any, left unturned.

Read at this link to get the context of Noah Harari’s statement: “Never summon a power you cannot control.”

We are already a 'global village' under heavy surveillance, with law enforcement more militant and given more freedom to do as they will with people, even shooting to kill if they so much as look sideways. After all, only "terrorists" look sideways, right? Forgive the sarcasm, but as evil rises, I will not applaud the cunning and craftiness Satan has employed to deceive the masses - just as Jesus foretold.

Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. [Mat 10:26] KJV (words of Jesus)

These things are prophetic for our time, and have been recorded in the Holy Bible long ago. The wars, the rumours of wars, the groaning of creation, the birth pangs felt by the world, much like a woman in travail. This is all occurring now.

That would mean that these things have to do with Yahweh [the Living God], Jesus, the Saviour, Satan, spiritual warfare, the prophetic written in scripture, and last, but not least, the Antichrist. 

Oddly, many people nowadays do not even want to say the word ‘Antichrist’ for a couple of reasons. The first reason is because many believe it is not one ‘person’ that Satan will possess. Instead, they believe it is a ‘system’, a beast system that will control mankind.

Some will say that there have been “many antichrists” since the days of the apostles, and that would be 100% accurate.

False Teachers - False Brethren

Dear children, the last hour is here. You have heard that the Antichrist is coming, and already many such antichrists have appeared. For this we know that the last hour has come. [1Jn 2:18]

John spoke of those who belonged to the church, people who were part of the Christian community, but left. “They went out from us, but they were not really of us,” [1Jn 2:19]– likely spoken with a heavy heart. False teachers, false brethren or ‘antichrists’, who came out of the church.

Today, many of them stay right in the church, ‘using’ the name of Jesus/Yeshua to promote themselves and their false teaching, a teacher that sounds so ‘true’ (because like Satan did in the desert temptation of Jesus, scripture is used).

I have no intention of expounding on any or ‘the’ Antichrist/Beast, or unholy pagan celebrations in this piece. Over the years, I have written and given information, but now, as I have stated, and which I firmly believe – Satan has not just blurred the lines between true and false, he has removed them. Jesus named him the ‘author of confusion’ for a good reason.

Some folks will take this to extremes and not trust any church. Just trust God. That is the best way for all of us, but Abba will grant discernment if our hearts are pure for the reason. We do not want to deceive, nor do we want to be deceived. It is a two-way street. 

We all need people we can trust. It is the way the Lord created things to be. The only one who thinks he can benefit from such a plan is the destroyer, that old serpent, the great dragon, Satan. [Rev 12:9]

What do I mean by that? By simply searching scriptures, we no longer have to be a scholar or theologian to see that we are tumbling quickly into the climax of the end times, the Great Tribulation.

It is so close that I would not be surprised if it breaks out at any time. Back when I wrote an article in 2008, I had mentioned how we have been seeing the puzzle pieces fall into place. 

For decades we saw the pieces put into position, like placing dominoes along a run/chain, in order to create the domino toppling, a spectacular art form that presents as a visual chain reaction – and all it takes is …just one push in the right place!

Domino Effect

Domino Effect--artist_Kovizel 1991

In 2008, I had written an article called “We Overcome”. Unfortunately, I removed five years’ worth of work when a woman promised to sponsor a new website. She changed her mind, which is her prerogative; however, I lost a good portion of those years due to ransomware, a nasty virus that destroys files within a certain time frame if the ‘ransom’ to spare them is not paid. 

By no means was any of that her fault. It was just the timing, but after a good cry at five years worth of research, reading for hours on end, phone calls, writing...all gone, no backup...hard lesson learned! Foolish me.

I am repeating myself, but there is an important point to be made here. Although I wept many tears due to the countless hours of research and work that was lost, I came to understand and accept that the only words that matter are Yahweh's (the Lord’s), and thankfully, we have those in the Holy Scriptures and hopefully, down in our hearts.

And they overcame him (the dragon) by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. [Rev 12:11]

I reposted the 2008 article, We Overcome in 2015, and again in 2022.

Excerpt:

In 2022, I wrote about the domino effect. What I wrote was…

There is a folder that I have named "Domino Effect usage". I labeled it that because of the articles in it where the Lord used the word 'dominoes'.

The first article I placed in the folder was titled, "We Overcome"  (published in 2008). The Lord spoke of things happening, and it was the first time He emphasized dominoes to me (regarding things coming).

Excerpt of (We Overcome):

For they prepared their hearts for the 'suddenlies' and the unexpected. 

For He who loves His children will teach them, then test them. 

He will lead them and guide them. 

He will forewarn and protect them.  

Things that are coming will be positioned like dominoes, with intent, strategically

placed, with precision. Things coming will have the 'domino effect', but God prepares His people.

Beltane/May Day - Pagan Celebration

Egyptian, Greek, Roman origin
Beltane

Each year I write about the ‘highlighted’ days on the occult calendar; days such as May 1, which the world ‘innocently’ labels May Day, a day of dancing around a pole with pretty ribbons and flowers attached. It can be just a few souls dancing around a pole or a great number.

With the original pagan celebration, the ‘pole’ was a phallic symbol that represented the male organ, the penis. The pole originally was a tall tree, straight, such as a pine tree – considered positive masculine “energy”, the generative ‘powers’ (idol) bringing life to the earth.

The coloured ribbons, beautiful assortment of flowers and garlands represented the feminine “energies”, enveloping the ‘womb of the earth’. Together it stood for fertility. The dancers moving in and out were symbolic of the natural rhythm of rejuvenating and creating new life.

Pagan practices involved couples in the nearby fields, whilst the dancing and singing and chanting carried on, celebrating the new cycle of life…and the fertilization of the earth. Pagans and Wiccans celebrated Beltane, honouring the ‘forces’ of creativity in nature. In Rome, Flora, the goddess of flowers was celebrated.

The ancient Gaelic/Celtic celebration was also called Beltane/Walpurgis  [Germanic] Fire Festival. I have written about it in the past, but it is not my intention to glorify it. At one time, demonic and Satanic activity was more rampant around and on certain days of the year, but now Satan has proudly lifted himself up to spread it far past these days.

The lines are no longer blurred. They have been wiped clean so that there is no defining line; it all blends together – at least, that is the intent. As we approach the time of the Great Tribulation, witchcraft is exalted in public arenas such as the Olympics, many opening ceremonies, Hollywood and its various Award programs, and more.

It is no longer considered shameful or evil, but something to be ‘proud’ of and good. Christianity is looked down upon, and it is becoming increasingly worse. Rejoice, dear friends, because our redemption is so much closer. How we long to see our Messiah return, our Jesus, Yeshua of Nazareth, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, King of kings and Lord of lords, the true Christ (Anointed One).

I had wanted to warn of any backlash that may occur due to the celebration of this pagan (occult) day, but it is a time where every day now is a day to stand guarded. We need Jesus more than ever before. Without Him, I do not know how anyone will make it in the days ahead without Jesus. Eternity is a long time – this life is temporal. Time to choose. Choose wisely.

Much more coming up…about Trump, clones, humanoids, just a lot, but what I really want to get to is what all these ‘distractions’ have kept us from focusing on.  The leaders globally and the events are all connected – it is all part of the big plan; the very plan that Yahweh warned about. 

I am confident that God's people, children of salt and light, know exactly what the evil ones are distracting the world from. However, multitudes are in denial because they either do not believe in Jesus as God/Saviour/King and Lord, or they have fallen away, apostates - may God help them before they become reprobates.

Jesus forewarned that if it were possible, even the very elect will be deceived. People everywhere are shocked at how much we were deceived about; the depth and the coverage is mind-boggling. No wonder we were told that we have no idea of the depth of evil…none.

Remember this, dear saints:

The Lord brings the counsel of the heathen to nothing: He makes the devices of the people of no effect. The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations. [Ps 33:11]

The Providential, Sovereign LIVING GOD rules forever; we can trust in Him.

Thank You Jesus/Yeshua - it is ALL because of You.

for His glory alone

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
