The time

http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/06/30/us-health-ebola-leone-idUSKBN0F520F20140630  Pestilence, famine, rumored wars, rumblings in the Earth, signs in the heavens and wide spread death, how many of these Biblical predictions are applicable Today?.  Beyond concern about how this may make me appear, please heed the Lord’s indications of His coming judgment.  Please search your heart and ask God to answer your prayers, even if you simply ask Him to let you know He’s there.  When He answers, as His Word readily promises, then please make a decision for Christ, repent of your sin and accept Him into your life to seal you for eternity and sanctify you for the day you will meet Him face to face.  Time is the only thing we have and it is suddenly in extremely short supply.

Saints be true.  The time of service to the Lord’s Plan is upon us.  This world of people whom “He Loves” stands on the brink of common disaster brought about by dominant, nurtured, unbridled and unrepentant sin.  Their only salvation is found in Jesus Christ. Without a saving knowledge, relationship and belief in Him they shall perish without grace for eternity.

The Lord has designated “us” as the vehicle through which they will acquire this saving knowledge.  The Lord has armed us with a “pipeline of prayer” directly to the throne of God so that we may intercede on the behalf of humanity.  The Lord has shown us what will surely and swiftly come to pass throughout His coming judgment so that we may share the benefits of that foreknowledge with all who may listen.  The Lord has called us to unique service, determined by our particular talents, abilities and treasures with which He has infused us in preparation for performance against particular tasks.  The Lord has designated the day and the hour of His unfolding wrath.  The time is now for us to stand up and do those things that the Lord has designated, directed and demanded be done in advance of His coming.  The time has come for saints to exercise the freedom of “choice” and offer themselves for the completion of God’s Will on Earth as it is in Heaven.

This world’s sin should break our hearts, yet we do not pray in humility as a body.  This world’s predicament and obvious departure from the wisdom of God’s Word ought to crush our spirits driving us first to our knees and then to our street corners proclaiming return to reason.  The Churches departure from a solid Biblical Path to that including, incorporating, tolerating and accepting sin within the Body ought to arouse us to satan’s nesting within the mustard tree.  The gift we have been given ought to empower us to give back to the Lord by loving the people He loved so greatly, by telling them of His Loving Plan.  The time has come to stand up and do that for which we cried out to the Lord at the moment of salvation.  He saved us so that we could tell others of His coming judgment, grace and love.  The time has come, will we listen.  Join me first upon our knees repenting of our own sin and crying out to God for the United States of America and the world.  Then join me in the streets, upon the pulpits and within our families, friends and workplaces proclaiming the truth of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Rain, clouds, lightning, twisters, thunder and relentless, uproarious wind, chasing us to the cellar yet we continue to claim there is no storm.  The child’s cranium is crowned yet we must not admit that labor has arrived or be cast in worry, abandon and unavoidable reflection upon two things; our lack of preparedness and our continual conflict with the acceptance of truth.  The wars have begun, the earth begins to rumble, pagans overrun the unrepentant, pestilence, hunger and death will soon follow.  Time does not wait upon the misinformed, the unbelieving or those captured by the unconscious hands of denial.  When Monday arrives it is time to go to work whether I wish it were not so is irrelevant.  The time for the return of the Messiah is near, we all know it, whether we choose to demonstrate that belief through our actions is in direct correlation to our desire to display faith and dependence upon His Word.  A man who sees danger and seeks shelter in the Lord has seen the proof of wisdom.

I have had the presence of the Holy Spirit of God in my life for years yet I still see those areas of my life to which I have not allowed Him dominion or mastery.  Surrender continues to evade my soul and in moments when I am at my worst, I cry out for the Potter’s Hand upon this vessel.  This is the proving ground, where my dross is to be removed in advance of my audience with a Holy and Righteous Lord, in whose presence I will be completed.  That which I refuse to do or that which I am unwilling to resolve shall be counted loss and something for which I will give an accounting at the seat of my own judgment.  Yes, judgment as a Christian, for even we shall have to explain our works, our deeds or lack there of to a King who already knows them intimately.  I have been given a finite amount of time in this world to demonstrate my faith by walking in His Word of Truth.  Why then in this knowledge do I continue to squander that finite resource called time.  Time is an unbiased jailer, its walls confront us with the limitations of humanity, its controlling hand forces us to reason or denial, uncaring of which we choose.

Lord let me choose You, let me choose life abundantly.  Use this life You have given me to accomplish those things that will bring glory upon your name.  Forgive me for the uninformed, foolish or ignorant actions I continue to commit, yes commit, for this is sin against You.  I am troubled by my lack of growth and unwillingness to surrender all.  Allow me to give all to You before my time is expended, and the opportunity for work passes with the coming night of judgment.  Give me Your Blessing and Your Truth, Always.  I love you Father in the name of my Savior Jesus Christ the Lord of All.

It has come

Even you wish that I would dim the light he has placed upon my life.  I saw the evidence of the enemy resting comfortably today within the body of Christ, travesty.  We have given way to the world, loosened our relentless grip upon truth, instead wanting that all would love us, when He said that they would not.  If the world adores us can we be doing the work that was entrusted to our stewardship?  If we receive praise from those who mock God how then can we remain true to the heraldship of coming judgment?  Would you have me comply with the rules of worldly men that are in direct conflict with the Word of Almighty God?  How can this be an example of my faith in the Lord’s Promises?

Watch the following video and you tell me what it requires to be Christian in the face of devastating circumstance.  You tell me if we have demonstrated that faith which may be required of us in the coming months and years.  Tell me where your heart resides, in the fattened calf of your Father’s Lordship or in the palsied, mockery and pestilence that calls itself the common sense of humanity.  Where will you turn when threatened by the opportunity to trust in God and show your faith real?  Will you comply with the demands of a wicked world, silencing your light, closing your ministry, taxing you out of existence or will you stand upon the promises of God, proclaiming the Gospel though your path pass through the valley of death’s shadow?  If these questions seem unrealistic, foreign or perhaps a bit too radical for the “real world” in which you live, perhaps you should watch the video again and see what “real” really means.

Father, Almighty and Sovereign Lord.  The times are upon us where man will turn against man in quest for domination.  The enemy is in the final throws of desperation, knowing fully of Your Rapid and Imminent Return.  Armor our hearts against his wiles Lord.  Make of us sturdy men willing to embrace eternity prepared and courageous in the Strength of Faith in Your Promises.  Give us Good Courage and the willingness to stand when most would run.  Father, Your Will be done through us and may there be peace in the world as a sign of Your Return.  Father we embrace Your Plan for this world and the next.  In Jesus’ mighty Hand I set my belief and trust.  Praise you with every breath, especially my last.  Amen.  We are amazed by your grace and glory.

The Right Hand

How many people passed away today, to whom we as saints failed to share the good news, saving them from eternity outside the presence of God?  There is nothing that shocks my sense of guilt as this simple, straight-forward question.  Why is that?  Is it because I am responsible for those going to a judgment separate from the mercy of God?  There has to be something to that, for I just feel miserable contemplating the implications of my inactivity.  Perhaps the Holy Spirit of God cries each time someone passes having missed the opportunity to choose grace, using my soul as a cavity from which to make His sadness known.  Oh Lord I am sorry that I failed, please don’t let me miss another opportunity as long as I may live.

Folks the time is winding down, the night is coming, a night so black, where no work may be done.  We must use the remaining daylight to proclaim the gospel to the frowning and misinformed world, praying for our enemies in direct obedience to Christ.  There is no other reason that I continue to draw breath, and if I continue to waste those few moments I have been given to do that for which I was redeemed, what value then have I placed on grace?  See it had to be worth something for the Lord to take off Glory for a while just to save the miserable lot of us from our own slavery and eventual death in sin.  Will I give worth to His Blood Sacrifice or will I treat it with trivial disposition?  I pray that I do not fall short, not because i am seeking some measure, prize or purchase, but because that is what He deserves, my allegiance, service, love and praise.  It is what He first did for me.

Praise Him in all His Glory.  Jesus is His name and He is lives, seated at the right hand of God.

Angry over the whole thing

Do you find yourself racing into the wind, defying the elements, questioning God?  Is God’s unfolding plan for humanity not sitting well with you?  Do you believe that there is a better way to save humanity from inevitable judgment and separation from God?  Or maybe you believe, like Jonah that there are some to which redemption should not be offered, for their sins are unforgivable.  Are you angry with the Lord and reluctant to tell Him?

Here is one of the grandest things that separates the One True God from all the charlatans, He wants to hear the deepest questions of your heart and help you to accept the unacceptable truth about this world and the next.  Are your fears mounting as we head into a time when the world is unraveling before us?  Take those fears to God and allow Him to encourage you and bid you be of “Good Courage” in the knowledge that He still sits upon His throne.  The things that are happening, must happen in order for things to become so difficult that even those “hard of heart” believers will be shaken from their tree, falling to the ground at the foot of the cross.  There is no avoiding what must soon come to pass, nor should we feel that we must resist these changes, for they are part of God’s eternal plan for mankind.  Pray for peace in Jerusalem, I pray for peace in your heart.

Yes, our rulers, leaders, representatives and families have gone seemingly haywire.  Wrong is right and bad is good in this alternative, ethical relativist global climate.  This is to be expected as it was predicted thousands of years ago in scripture setting up the circumstances where the Jewish people will cry out for the Messiah’s return.  There is no other way, so if you are looking for one, you may wish to reconsider aligning yourself with a plan that is not from God.  Pray for our leaders to have a return to wisdom, good judgment and dedication to God’s principles, just as the apostles prayed for Rome.  We must not hate, divide and determine each man’s qualifications for redemption based upon our own judgment for we are “not” God.  His ways are above my own, unknown to me, unfathomable as the depths of the universe are to common man.  We must have “faith” in God’s plan as the best possible thing that could happen for humanity.

Try letting go of your anger by taking it to God in prayer and meditation upon His word, in return you will receive a peace that surpasses the understanding of this world. That is why it is called “supernatural”, above nature, because it comes from outside our capacity and resolve.  Don’t allow this world to define or taint the definition and perfection of God’s plan.  Remember the enemy’s greatest gift is an ability to twist and re-manufacture truth in a palatable fashion acceptable to mankind’s desire.  Learn the truth, know the truth and utilize the truth to keep you and your family safe from false teaching, false hope and false gods.  In the name of Jesus I ask God the Father to heal your heart and stem your anger leading to hope, peace and preparedness for the coming of the Lord.

Live Truth

Nicolas Cage makes Rapture ‘bigger’ than ever

  Hollywood in conflict, more pressure continues to be placed upon fence sitting.  Are you ready for judgment day?

Can  I let go of the wrongs that have been done me and those things I see that offend God?  What is forgiveness that the Lord would offer it to the entirety of humanity?  Is there a prize so compelling in human behavior that we cherish more than this type of love, called forgiveness?  Do I look to the Lord to free, resolve, remove and relinquish those offenses in my own heart or must I continue to look over my neighbors fence for necessary changes?  Aren’t those things/standards to which I hold my fellow humans accountable not exactly the same things with which I continue to struggle or have been given freedom via the changes of Holy Spirit?  How can I hold grudge for errors of soul to which I myself may still or once found myself enslaved?  Father forgive them for they know what they do, but forgive me even more for I have judged them for their misgivings, lack of faith or sensibility.

This world is astray.  It is not one step off the path it is now several generations departed from fealty, service and relationship with God.  We are not the apostate church we are an apostate humanity determined to winnow, root out or deny God’s authority over every part of our lives in His infinite and compelling sovereignty.  The voices in the desert are silenced calling men to make straight their paths as the Kingdom of God has come.

Even our greatest pastors now have millions of dollars tied up in the trappings of blessed ministries, such that they truly are no longer free to speak the absolute truth of God having to be cautious of man’s legalities and feared losses.  I see these flaws in my own ministry as the blessings like rain pour down upon my life and I see growth where once was fallow ground.  This is not easy, but we must be “perpetually” ready to lose all for the Word of God.  If we do not prepare our hearts in this fashion then we are denying and disobeying the charge placed upon us by God, for it may very well cost us everything reach the last soul for Christ.  If you aren’t in it to win it, risking, surrendering and enduring everything for the furtherance of Grace then you may as well stay home.  Stacking up, piling, hoarding and counting the blessings of God without while one soul goes unreached, unhealed, unserved, unfed or minimized is disobedience to that blessing.

Churches that have huge tracts of land while people are starving for food, shelter and water, should be ashamed for missing the purpose of blessing and grace.  If there is but one orphaned child in your town, city or state without care and adoption into the fold of the Body of Christ while your church brandishes great coffers, investment accounts and real estate holdings, then you should sell that profit and provide for these forgotten children or be in direct disobedience to God’s Direction.  If you pray for God’s will to be done on Earth and He has given you the assets to start, foster or complete the realization of His Will and you are not using those assets to promote that Righteous Will then you are double minded, hypocritical and a liar before Christ.  Give as it has been given unto you.  I say these things to myself and ask God’s forgiveness and restoration of my heart to use those things I have been given for His Purpose.  All else is folly and service to self and the darkest fallen.

Guide us, free us, reveal Your Self to us oh Sovereign Lord of All.  In the Name of Jesus Christ the King of Everything.  Amen

The Fight is prayer

Battle rages, is it unseen to your willing eyes?  Do you hear the whispers of wickedness continually attempting to lead you astray, only the next moment to be begging God forgiveness for your idolatry and sin?  Do you fear the Lord and work each day to enter the rest by obeying and keeping the Word of God?  Is your walk through the fields of sanctification one done in fear and trembling or is it the clumsy lumberings of a lop-sided elephant?  Do you ever contemplate putting on the Spirit Armor of God or do you go unaffected into the world expecting no interference, obstacles or attempted departure from the Will of God?  Open your eyes saints, the battle rages and your greatest weaponry against the wiles of the enemy is prayer.  Why do you think he tries so desperately to keep you from it?

On my knees I find the moments where God may choose to speak.  In my prayer closet, the world loses its grip upon the rooms of my thought, so that my house is God’s House eternal.  In my shame and humility, my heart is softened and prepared for the footsteps of God upon its willing walls.  I am spirit, though this body and soul may deny that fact.  It is my spirit that craves God’s likeness, love and reprimand.  When I go to God in prayer I know peace, not just a concept that I heard from a preacher, or something that false teachers sell upon the street corner, but real rest.  This world cannot know the Prince of Peace in all His Glory for there is no will to receive the truth and without it just remains beyond reach, outside the veiled promenade.

The enemy cringes at the coming King, knowing that his time is short and that his limited reign is falsehood.  he lies in wait for those willing to step onto the battlefield unprepared, ill tempered, naive to the common frailties that plague all humanity.  We as princes and priests cannot intervene for those who would be consumed if we are not first armored and educated to the things of God.  We must prepare our hearts in prayer before the throne of God, knowing with utmost confidence that “our Father” listens, hears and responds in kind to our limited display of faith.  For prayer is the tempering of our faith, the honing of our skills with the Two Edged Sword of the Word of God.  It is in prayer that we realize the truth of all God’s Promises to Man.  It is in prayer that we come to “Know” the Father instead of just know about Him.  Meet God in prayer or go ill prepared to the ramparts.

Places please

The lights dim, the curtain rises to a stage set with the pageantry of chaos, mixed messages and back-room bargained bribery.  Unbelievable the scene as it rolls out before an audience incredulous, stating, “no way we could have fallen for this fiasco”.  Buffoons display their strategic and political brilliance, shouting, “Look over there” as they pocket the people’s shiny coin returning empty hand to coffers in thievery.  A perfect picked lineup, choreographed by a manager with intimate knowledge of their willing wickedness, selecting just the right mannerism for each horrific role.  Bumbling boss, evil emperor, unengaged observer, all performing as if they truly possessed the malevolent characteristics of their casting.  The audience is lulled into silence realizing that they are seeing a frightening portrayal of current circumstance.  The terror rumbles through their quivering hearts as they begin to comprehend that this not simply a play but a cast made of true to life participants in the unfolding plan of Almighty God.

These rulers, leaders and pundits could not have been better selected for the dissolution of America.  Constitutional law professors, political professionals, land fiefs and wanna-be-imperials every possible character in the menagerie of greed enjoys full representation.  Common men cringe, fearing the fall of America accompanying a sense of powerlessness and apathetic indifference.  There is only peace found in the realization of prophecy, the knowledge and the comfort in the Will of God.  Those faces of comfort reserved for the saved and soon to be sanctified.  For the remainder, no rest, no surety, only self service and fear of impending disestablishment.

We pray for them oh God, as Your Word directs, these rulers You have thrust upon the throne in authority.  They are not fit, yet they are perfect for the circumstances given.  We dream of hope in Your return to bring sense to the nightmare.  Forgive us, mighty Lord for resisting their obeisance.  We have been given the reward for our actions, commensurate, proper, appropriate.  Let us understand and accept the bounty for our derision and disobedience.  Our folly came with a price that will soon be exacted by all.  Forgive us Father and lead us into the saving Grace of Your Quiet Mercy.  In Jesus Name, Come Soon.
