Keywords: LORD, Savior, IAM, Zion

the heavens declare his majesty

Revelation 21:6  And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

Isaiah 46:10  Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

Thus Saith the Eternal,
The Ancient of Days,
The LORD is His name,
I AM, saith the LORD!
Besides me, there is no SAVIOR!
For I have seen it,
I have declared it,
The End from the Beginning.
Before time was, There IAM Existed.
I declared it before,
The pages of Eternity have recorded it,
So I AM,
Will ye not understand yet?
How can ye refuse me, Saith the LORD?

Isaiah 46:10  Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

For I have created,
It is mine, I will re-established it,
Upon the earth my will be done,
Shall I not do this?
Righteousness shall rule,
I will establish it in the earth.
Darkness will flee,
The Wicked will perish and all who do wickedly,
But my people,
Those who honor my name,
Those who keep my commandments,
Those who have kept, ‘the love of the truth’
Yea, these will inherit all things.

2 Thessalonians 2:10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

The LORD will reign in the earth, and in the heavens,
Yea, he will reign above, and beneath,
On that day that the LORD establishes his kingdom,
On that day, From Zion, shall I rule, saith the LORD.
All nations shall know me.
All peoples shall come unto me.
For the Lord will establish it.
It shall be done!

Isaiah 52:8  Thy watchmen shall lift up the voice; with the voice together shall they sing: for they shall see eye to eye, when the LORD shall bring again Zion.

So hope in the LORD, all ye his saints!
For without the LORD, not one soul shall be saved!
Therefore, my beloved, walk in faith,
Trust in the LORD.
For Amidst the fire, ye shall be refined,
Amidst the turmoil ye shall be established,
Be ye, in Faith, walk in hope, and be in the LORD,
For the LORD saith, IAM, there is no other,
The Savior, full of grace, full of mercy,
Extending his favor to thousands of generations.

New York Judge Permits Lesbian Divorce

New York Judge Permits Lesbian Divorce Despite State’s Non-Recognition of Same-sex “Marriage”

By Michael Baggot

NEW YORK, February 28, 2008 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A New York judge has ruled that a lesbian known as Beth R. can pursue a divorce from Donna M., the woman that she “married” in Canada. It is the first time in New York judicial history that a judge has allowed homosexuals to seek a divorce.

While Donna M. contends that a divorce case is impossible in a state that does not allow for same-sex “marriages,” Supreme Court Justice Laura Drager ruled the state can still recognize the marriage that took place outside of New York.

Donna M.’s lawyer argues that Justice Drager’s decision “sets aside 200 years of decisional and statutory law in New York.” He accused Drager of trying to change state law through the court.

In 2006, on behalf of the New York Court of Appeals, Justice Smite wrote, “We hold that the New York Constitution does not compel recognition of marriages between members of the same sex. Whether such marriages should be recognized is a question to be addressed by the legislature.” Unlike at least 41 other states, however, New York legislation does not explicitly define marriage as a union between a man and woman, thus allowing judges like Drager to recognize homosexual marriages contracted elsewhere.

Drager’s decision contrasts with a December Rhode Island decision in which the state’s Supreme Court refused to acknowledge any out-of-state homosexual “marriage.” Contrary to that decision, Drager ruled that New York would recognize any out-of-state marriage that is not prohibited by the state or is not “abhorrent to New York public policy.” Only incest and polygamy were cited as “abhorrent” practices.

Drager’s ruling is the second major legal victory in New York this month for advocates of homosexual “marriage.” On February 1st, the Appellate Division of State Supreme Court of New York ruled that homosexual “marriages” legally recognized in other countries must also be recognized for the purpose of state employee benefits. After the February 1st ruling, Monroe Community College in Rochester was forced to extend health benefits to the college employee Patricia Martinez, who was “married” to her homosexual partner in Canada.

The left-wing advocacy group New York Civil Liberties Union admitted to bringing the Martinez case forward in order to move towards the legalization of homosexual “marriages” within the state. James Esseks, Litigation Director of the Lesbian Gay Bisexual and Transgender Project of the NYCLU, said after the February case that “it’s now up to the state legislature to finish the job it started last year and pass the marriage bill so that lesbian and gay New Yorkers won’t have to leave the state to celebrate their commitments.”

Drager’s ruling is a part of a continuing trend within New York to recognize the validity of homosexual “marriages.” As judicial recognition of homosexual marriages expands, it is likely that previous state prohibitions of same-sex marriages will disappear.

Donna M. has said that she plans to appeal the Drager decision.

In The Land of Shadows

In The Land of ShadowsA Psalm by The Watchman
Dana G Smith
‘the torch will not light thee during the day of wrath’ keywords: Lord, HOSTS, Land of Shadows,

Trusting in the Shadow of Egypt a type of the world, a metaphor relating to America (worldly).

Isaiah 30:1  ¶Woe to the rebellious children, saith the LORD, that take counsel, but not of me; and that cover with a covering, but not of my spirit, that they may add sin to sin:
2  That walk to go down into Egypt, and have not asked at my mouth; to strengthen themselves in the strength of Pharaoh, and to trust in the shadow of Egypt!
3  Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt your confusion.

Setting the Example: Remember what I did to Israel saith the LORD

Jeremiah 13:13  Then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit upon David’s throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.
14  And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the LORD: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.
15  Hear ye, and give ear; be not proud: for the LORD hath spoken.

In the Land of Shadows, cries can be heard.
Before there was gladness, now there is unbelief & terror.
The voice of the wise man has ceased,
for the Lord of HOSTS has spoken.
Across the land it can be heard.
A voice that was not heard before,
a voice the people gave no heed,
for the wrath of the Lord has descended
and we have heard it.
We are a people gone astray,
like Israel of old,
we are people undone,
for the Lord has recompensed us for our pride.

Where are your wise men?
Where are your noble ones?
Who has the power to quench my fury saith the Lord?
Run to your places and hide.
Bury yourselves in your castles.
Yea, I will crush you under the weight of your idols!
For the Lord has removed himself,
he has descended in anger for the pride,
yea for the pride of his people and the arrogance of the nations.
The shadow has passed, yea it has gone,
swiftly from north to south, from coast to coast,
from cities to the farms, yea it is consumed.

My day groaneth the people,
where is my day of peace?
Gone saith the Lord.
My day groaneth the people,
where is my day of prosperity?
Gone saith the Lord.
My day groaneth the people,
how shall it end?
Thy day is ended saith the Lord,
for the day is mine, it is filled,
yea the Lord doth speak and
the day is filled with my righteous fury.

For thy arrogance,
thy pride,
thy iniquity,
thy idols,
thy madness and pleasure seeking ways.
It is full saith the Lord,
it is full.
How long shall it last?
Till it be consumed and my anger is ended saith the Lord.

The word is passing through the nations.
Have you heard?
Have you seen the smoke?
Behold it is gone!
How shall it continue?
Where is the wisdom?
Who will tell me?
How could I have avoided this?
Did you not know?
Did no one tell you this could be?
Away with thee,
count the dross and cast it away.
Wipe the slate.
Mount that which you have,
Flee, run, and see if you can escape.
For it is filth in the land of shadows.
Under every rock,
in every house,
in all the temples of thy idols,
in every street,
the land is filled with evil.
Thy ways are wicked and you love it so!

You hide in the shadows of your lands.
You have hidden your sins well,
But I will cast light in the shadows.
I will reveal the hidden things.
I will burn the wicked thing.
I will remove it.
For I am the Lord and my anger will not cease,
yea, till it is quenched in my righteousness.
For the filth will be removed of it,
The cities will burn,
The people will be destroyed,
for the end has come,
In the Land of Shadows.

Epitaph:
The smoke rises, the vulture circles,
the birds flee, and the neighborhood is silent,
In the Land of Shadows, a great and terrible day has come,
We were not ready, no one told us of this day.
For we were the elite of the earth, the most powerful of our day,
We live in the Land of Shadows, a place where the dust has not settled,
Nor the peace returned, for evil has come, In the Land of Shadows.

Isaiah 47:7  ¶And thou saidst, I shall be a lady for ever: so that thou didst not lay these things to thy heart, neither didst remember the latter end of it.
8  Therefore hear now this, thou that art given to pleasures, that dwellest carelessly, that sayest in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me; I shall not sit as a widow, neither shall I know the loss of children:
9  But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments.
10  For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me.
11  Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know.
12  Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail.
13  Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee.
14  Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them; they shall not deliver themselves from the power of the flame: there shall not be a coal to warm at, nor fire to sit before it.
15  Thus shall they be unto thee with whom thou hast laboured, even thy merchants, from thy youth: they shall wander every one to his quarter; none shall save thee.

The Cosmic Chaos

Long before the eons and ages that we have come to know of as the "cosmic chaos", there was God. Not just any God, but the True and living God. Before there were any Angels or other created being, there was God. The question has been asked before, "Has God always been there?" Before all we knew as this environment, space, and the vast planetary systems, what existed? Did God exist then? Like a room a darkened room. You can’t see anything at all. In the middle of the room is a long cord with something called a light bulb on it. To that bulb is a power that flows from a switch by the door. You see nothing, but hear something moving about, and then you hear a click. All of a sudden, there is light. Before there was nothingness, or so you thought, now there is light and you look around. Now this article is not about the great boom theory, or even to prove there is a God. But let me ponder and think a bit with you about all this.

 

Have you ever thought about that beginning? I mean it was like God just walked into the room from another room. He decided the place needed something. So, he created light, earth, planets, stars, and all related concerns to it. But before he did all that he created the angels and all of heaven. But what is beyond the room God created for us? Where is the true beginning? Why did God do all this? Why did he see fit to even begin such a creation? If God is self sufficient in all his ways, why did he want to do anything? Was he bored? Not likely anyway, that is according to our meaning of boredom. I believe this God is an active God. He likes to created, he loves creation, and he loves what he has done. Yet in all this, people cannot see the unbelievable aspect of all this. Just like some small atom decided on its own to do something and start the creation process. From this process, the small atom brings about the "great boom" theory, or what some call the "first cause."

Thinking that all this happened by accident is what many have argued over for centuries. Believing or not believing there is a God, another serious bone of contention among men and women today. It’s as if we really think that God is in heaven right now, sweating over the fact of "do they believe in me or do they not believe in me?" Seriously, this is a stupid and downright assumption on mans part. Man without God, is lost, and would not of ever been born, because without God, there never would have been a man or woman created. God without man is still God. He moves about his creation. Do you think, really, he just sits in a chair in heaven and does nothing but listen to angels worship him? All of heaven, all of space, all of time, all of everything there is or is known and that which is not known, is in God. This ultimate figure, the perfection of all perfections, he exists. He exists totally in unisons with all things, for he created them all. There was nothing, absolutely nothing that was made, that he did not create. The apostle John saw this magnificence of God. He wrote about in his book, we call it John. In the first verse, the word, Word is used Three times and the word, God is used twice. What a statement by this man. He saw a revelation of the revealed God that many have never seen.

John 1:1  ¶In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2  The same was in the beginning with God.

3  All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

4  In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

5  ¶And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

6  There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

7  The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.

8  He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

9  That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

10  He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

11  He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

12  But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

13  Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

14  And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

15  ¶John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.

16  And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.

17  For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

There are times when I would like to sit at the feet of our God and ask him, "Why did you make man.?" I would also like to ask him, "what is beyond this room, you know, all the other places there are, what is there?" Some final questions would be, "if you created all things, how did you come to be? I mean God if you exist and I know you do, what was it like when nothing but you was there? How can my mind grasp these as facts?" Then I hear a voice speaking, "Son, faith my son. It is what moves all things, by my Spirit, having faith. I have created all this, and it is good."

1 Corinthians 2:9  But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

 

The Mystery of God

"Before ever the creation of anything, in beginning, the voice continues, my Son was to be sacrificed for the sins of a creation I had not yet made, but I knew this creation would need a redemptive sacrifice to save them from something they would not totally understand. That is sin. From this sin, in the beginning, I had already chosen to create man, and then send a sacrifice to save them."

The prophecies pertaining to this discussion the God of all Gods would point out to me. In our discussion, he would say, My Apostle John recorded my Son’s own words which said "thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world." And Again the book of Hebrews says, God would point out, "the works were finished from the foundation of the world, saying "my Son must often have suffered since the foundation of the world, for he would appear to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself." God would then finish by adding "all this was kept secret from the beginning of the world."

 

John 17:24  ¶Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

Hebrews 4:3  For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

Hebrews 9:26  For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

Romans 16:25  ¶Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

After these discussions, I would realize and know that God, who created us, knew what would happen. No, he was not caught off guard. Although all these things were hidden or kept secret since the beginning of the world, yet they are revealed to us now, so much so, that the angels of God desire to look into these things. The prophets foretold of this coming salvation. The angels of God, even around the throne of God, could probably not fully understand this. Scripture says that the sufferings would come, for this Son of God, the Christ. Why would he have to suffer? Why would he have to die? God knew, so did his Son, for the sins of man. The angels desired to look into this salvation which was revealed.

1 Peter 1:10  ¶Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:

11  Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.

12  Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.

The secret in heaven was kept. The Father told no one, and then one day the secret of this coming salvation for the creation of God, called man would begin. What is Salvation the angels wondered? How could God redeem this fallen creature? The powers of darkness did not have a clue. Scripture points out that if the powers of darkness and of this world really knew what God was doing, they would not have crucified the Lord of Glory.

1 Corinthians 2:8  Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

Even today, this mystery is being told. This mystery of God has been revealed to all the powers that exist. These are the powers on heaven, on the earth, to men, to angels, and then finally to the demonic realm, even the chief of the rivals himself. For the Father created all things by Jesus Christ, even providing this salvation, which would make it possible for man to be forgiven and have access to the Father through the faith of Christ Jesus our Lord.

Ephesians 3:9  And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

10  To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

11  According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

12  In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him.

The Sapien Prophecy

The battle is going on right now. The chief rivals want to destroy this mystery which has been revealed. They want to reduce it to a myth. They want to replace it with other illusions and delusions. Make no mistake, this is war. They did not know or nor understand what was at stake before Christ came. They will not make the same mistake again. They mean business. The stops are all pulled out, the delusions are here. They are giving it full weight and will bring man to fall into the abyss of the future ‘son of perdition’. God himself already told us the reason. For in all the creation, man seems the one, with the power of ‘sapien’, that is to be wise, yet in all his wisdom, without God, he falls short. In his wisdom, he will fall headlong into destruction, borne out of foolishness and rebellion, the result of sin.

1 Corinthians 1:21  For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

The Lord God will literally chose the delusions of men and bring their own fears upon them. The enemy is sending delusions daily upon the souls of men, women, and children. He is raining down on this earth his devilish schemes wrapped up in New Age movements, higher consciousness, UFO’s, Aliens, Mystics, false Christ’s, signs, wonders, and many other devices all intent on bringing you into his false light. The world for their part, will believe. For men, who have rejected the ‘love of the truth’, will be sent a delusion so powerful, it will damn their souls.

Isaiah 66:4  I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

2 Thessalonians 2:10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

John 3:16  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

18  He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

19  And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

Men rejected the Fathers love. They have not believed on him, whom God hath sent, for this, the Father will send them a delusion so powerful, it will even deceive the very elect of God, if they are not in right standing with the Lord God who saved them. God will choose the delusions and send them upon this earth. He will bring the fears of men upon them, for when he called, they refused to answer. When spoke to their hearts, they did not listen. For this, the reward is separation from the LORD God.

2 Thessalonians 2:12  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Just as Jesus came and walked the shores of Galilee and preached repentance, his words echo today. Whether you live in America, Europe, Asia, or some other place, the message is clear. The Kingdom of God is at hand, repent ye, and believe the gospel.

Mark 1:14  ¶Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,

15  And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

Ship of fools


A Psalm written by Dana G. Smith
Given by the Lord

I see a ship of fools…
a drift in a sea of madness…
blown about by the winds of pride.
Self destruction is their rudder…
yhe devil their captain.
Pleasure and excess is the mast…
blown about by the winds of pride.
Full of holes, full of holes, yet they see them not.
A Ship, its cabins filled with self seekers…
blown about by the winds of pride.
These who are lost in the dark of the night,
possessed by the spirit of madness…
blown about by the winds of pride.
Truly, this is a people who forgot their God.

The end.

The Ship of Illusion

In America, we find all kinds. Our nation and the many nations of men make up many beliefs. There is no doubt today, technology, know how, and our attitude that we can handle whatever comes our way, has made us somewhat foolish. In our knowledge, many times, we discount a God which is involved in the affairs of men. When in truth, the hearts of the kings, princes, presidents, and those rulers who may even deny him, are in the hands of the LORD. After all, the LORD is the Governor among the nations. It is he who rules, period, no matter whether men like it or not!

Psalms 22:28  For the kingdom is the LORD’S: and he is the governor among the nations.

blown about by the winds of pride.
Truly, this is a people who forgot their God.

The end.

Moreover, prosperity in the nations has made many men and women to be self sufficient. The man who earns money, builds his own castles so to speak, and has amassed a fortune; many times has trouble believing in a God you cannot see, hear, or touch. Leastwise, they think such a God, if he exists is one which is unavailable for comment on many subjects. His line is busy, his table is full, and he doesn’t want to be bothered. In all these notions are those who are filling the table of society with many books that discount God totally. Books coming out today are bringing such an unbelieving attitude with them. Such is the case with some published in 2007. Richard Dawkins wrote the “The God Delusion”, while Christopher Hitchens wrote “God is not Great: “How Religion Poisons Everything”, and Sam Harris wrote, “Letter to a Christian Nation”, then Daniel C Dennett wrote “Breaking the Spell: Religion as a Natural Phenomenon.” Dennis Prager, in an article titled “Why Atheist Books are Bestsellers” interviewed three of the four authors mentioned above.

He said of the interviews:

“In my opinion-and I dialogued with three of the four authors on my radio show (Dawkins has refused to come on)-the arguments put forth are far more emotional than intellectual, and even secular liberal journals have written devastating reviews of the Hitchens and Dawkins books.” [Whistleblower, pg 44, Sept 2007]

As we walk down this path, remember scripture says it twice! What you ask? This is what: “The fool hath said in his hear, There is no God!” Now I did not call those who declare “there is no God” a fool, scripture said it. Today, though, many have accepted such beliefs. In fact, many others have wandered into the abyss of lukewarmness and the church is full of those who are religious infidels, that is, people who walk and are smoothed by religious ways, but are no more saved than the demons who walk under the Devil himself.

Psalms 14:1  ¶<> The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalms 53:1  ¶<> The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.

America today is a ship, a ship that is becoming more and more like a “ship of fools”. One where they assume their strength today is of their own doing, not thinking that the foundations of belief in a Holy God has anything to do with it. Nor the fact of walking in a righteous way, avoiding those things which are despicable, but today, America is making room for any kind of filth to be labeled as A-OK. Today, our society is wavering and even though, it is headed for trouble, disaster in fact, many ignore the signs. Over the years, America and those who live here have never seen, leastwise in the last 50 years to one hundred years, ongoing plagues, bloodshed, and violence like many other nations. We have had our own troubles, sure, but for many people today, they have enjoyed freedom, wealth to some degree, safety, homes to live in, comforts along with that home, freedom to talk, freedom to seek whatever job one wants, freedom in all its aspects have truly been ours.

Because we have amassed such ability to live as free men and women, with our desires ready to placated at any stop, we have become an obsessed society, an over fed society, wealthy, in need of nothing, prideful, arrogant, and have in deed, watered down God to the point that we can do anything we want and still make it to heaven. Such is the case with wicked societies in the past. They forget their past, that is, knowing who is really in charge, and that men, in the final aspects of all he is or does, must answer to a God, who will judge all men and women.

Simply put, Americans today don’t think God will do anything at all! They don’t believe judgment will fall upon this nation. They don’t believe in judgment upon man or woman. They have prospered; their eyes stand out with abundance and fatness. They look upon God as early Israel did and say to themselves, “How doth God know, is there knowledge in the most High?” The scripture tells us who these people are, simply put, again, it is the ungodly.

“Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.” Psalms 73:12

I don’t know if you saw the Gallup poll or not. It has been quoted a number of times, I’m sure. The poll question I am bringing up here is the one which asked the public if they would support an atheist for President or not. In the poll, 45% of the people said they would support such a man or woman for President. As a result it led Whistleblower magazine from Worldnetdaily to quip “such a survey is a clear indication that the secularization of society is alive and well.” [IBID]

The society that forgets God, and all the wicked will be turned into hell. Tough words you say, yes, they are a warning, again from the scriptures.

Psalms 9:16  The LORD is known by the judgment which he executeth: the wicked is snared in the work of his own hands. Higgaion. Selah.
17  The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.

The nation that is wise, will see and understand such warnings. Our forefathers knew these warnings, that is why, the undertaking they had, included the Word of God, and the LORD himself. Of course, not all were staunch believers, but the fact that the Ten Commandments are part of our historical heritage should tell us something. The fact also is true, if we are a secular nation, then destruction, which is coming, will be an event occurring in a moment, bringing the nation down quickly. In a moment, a flash, utter consummation and devastation will occur. In George Washington’s farewell address to the nation, he said that “religion and morality” are the indispensable supports of political prosperity. Further, he said “in vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness.”

Believe it or not, America is not a Christian nation. It is secularist and idol worshipping, with a pantheon of Gods, and it is immoral. This nation, which has seen the light of God shine upon it, will in the end, see the “smelter of the Lord” in this land of the free. The sad tribute to this nation is “here lays a nation that thought, in all its blessings, by its own hand, it did receive them”. This is a nation which has thrown out the “fear of the Lord”. Without this, men and women do as they please, believing that God will tolerate their sinful ways and rebellion. The truth is, destruction will come, and all people will receive at the hand of the Lord, the due recompense for their labors on this earth. This will prepare men and women for eternity. For by their labors, belief’s, attitude, and consideration of the LORD and his son Jesus Christ, they will be judged. For many today, the coming trouble’s and trials to this nation brings fear and paranoia. For others, it is the wanting to know the next step. For these, the question is “what must I do now?” For those who read this, there is an answer. The first part of that is to Repent of your sins, and with all your heart do this: Fast, Pray, and seek the Lord. After doing that, or in the course of that, follow those things below.

The Ship of Salvation and Refuge!

I sat down, after I read a short letter to me from one of our friends, as I call them, which are those who visit our sites and hear our shows and then pointedly said to the Lord, “I need a word from you. What are these people to do? How or what should they do, what do I tell them for this day and age we live in.” The Lord gave me a word. But first let me say that besides the physical aspects of preparing your family and yourself by stocking water, food, and other necessities, there is a spiritual dimension that is more important than all others. The Lord told me three things, three words in three sentences for those who would hear it. It is important to know you are already saved, walking with the Lord, and in obedience, that is. The three things the Lord said was: one -Walk in Compassion, two-Grow in Grace, and three-Trust the Lord (meaning to trust in, cling to, believe in),

ONE: Walk in Compassion

Compassion:

1 Peter 3:8  ¶Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous

4835: sympathetic, from hypakoe obedience, with the thought to show an association with another as they suffer, endure, experience suffering, we are to show a passion born out of Love for the savior, and his love in us, pouring forth through us to comfort those, thus we bear an associative sympathetic passion to them, bearing their burdens as ours.

In obedience to the Lord whom we serve, we are to have the passion with which the Lord showed to us and give it to others. In passion, born out of Gods love for us, his love in us, constrains us and moves us to walk in this love, releasing it to as many as the Lord leads us to. This pours forth through us, and we walking as salt and light, lets the stream of grace and love pour from Gods bosom into ours, then through us to those who need it. Thus releasing this torrent of love and grace, the unbeliever and the wicked can then behold the liquid love of God that helps them through the believer who walks in true God called compassion.

Jude 1:22  And of some have compassion, making a difference:

1653:to have mercy on, to show mercy, to show pity to another who is in serious need, usually with an act of kindness to help meet that need, from-eleos-moral quality of feeling compassion, refers to human kindness and to God’s kindness to humankind.
The scripture here refers directly to those in these last days that need help. This scripture is part of a context relating the believers to work to bring people in from destruction and judgment. We find this word compassion is united in the thought of showing mercy, revealing your pity and help those in serious need, with an act of kindness meant to meet that need. It refers to human kindness and to God’s kindness to humankind. Thus as a follower of the God of Glory, you have accepted his Son’s sacrifice on the cross, and his love and compassion should fill your being. You then, let this torrid wave of unstoppable compassion help those who need it and bring them into the ship of safety. Again, this context directly refers to those wicked or unbelievers who need salvation. You are bringing them, literally out of the cold freezing waters of the night. Just like a boat of safety on the waters in the ice berg waters where the Titanic sank, you are that person, in compassion, reaching out of the boat to bring cold freezing people in the ark of safety with you. This is the time of the night, but you are not of the night, you are of the day. So in the midst of wickedness, unbelief, tragedy, bloodshed, violence, and ever kind of evil, you are to walk by faith, compassion, and allow the God compassion to flow through you to deliver men and women to safety. That is, if they will accept it.

Two: Grow in Grace

Grace:

2 Peter 3:17  Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.
18  But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

5485: the state of kindness and favor toward someone, often with a focus on a benefit given to the object, by extension, gift, benefit, credit, words of kindness and benefit, thanks, blessing, liberality, thankworthy, from hypostronnyo, to spread out, with the thought to rejoice, be glad, delighted, joyfully, thus showing a way of life illustrating the knowledge of Jesus Christ, walking as he would, showing kindness and favor, spreading out with this behavior to all men and doing it with the thought of rejoicing, being glad you can do this.

This Grace, God showered us with, was undeserved, but he gave it to us, freely. So too, with compassion and even now with grace, these must grow. God wants not just you, but you to be growing to be all you can be in God. He has a well spring of benefits for you and as you grow in these, they will flow out of you. Thus, the grace of God, his kindness and love, will retreat from your heart into others as they behold your servant hood for the Lord. Your grace and growth in it will spread out, a behavior revealed to all men, doing this with a rejoicing, pure joy, and being glad you could release heavens promise to other men and women who need it so desperately. In a world of selfishness, greed, pride, hate, bitterness, strife, and loneliness, to name a few, a believer walking in Grace and growing in it, will bring a true salt and light witness to the darkness they enlighten. Thus, you who have been shown kindness from the Lord, his salvation, his deliverance, his power, his love, and his complete provision, will be yours and yours to give. You can never out grow, get too much of, or ever reach the end of Gods fullness. As a result, the abundance of Grace for you, from God, will never end, he will always be sufficient for you and your needs. For he is all in all and there is no end to him. He is eternity, he is salvation, he encompasses grace, he is truth, and the true light, which enlightens the world.

Three: Trust the Lord

Trust:

Psalms 73:24  Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory.
25  Whom have I in heaven but thee? and there is none upon earth that I desire beside thee.
26  My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
27  For, lo, they that are far from thee shall perish: thou hast destroyed all them that go a whoring from thee.
28  But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

4268: refuge, shelter, refuge, hope, place of refuge, trust,
This word is mahseh, from maqor meaning fountain, spring, source (of a flow), often with an implication of abundance or freshness, well spring, with the further relationship to mahseya meaning Maaseiah, mahseiah which comes from the word miqtar meaning burning with the implication of a place of refuge-shelter-refuge-hope-place of refuge and trust relating to another Hebrew word connected to Maaseiah which is yhwh or Yahweh, the compound proper name of the LORD (Yahweh), implying personal covenant relationship with the one who exists and/or causes existence.

In the above word Trust found in Psalm 73, there is a direct correlation of the righteous versus the wicked who do not accept God, or his covenant, or his righteousness, or his Grace. The righteous have found this grace and it has been brought through the personal covenant of Yahweh (LORD), through his Messiah or HaMassiah (Masseiah in Hebrew), this being the one who causes to exist or causes existence, and his promise to bring his people through all times good or bad, as they trust in him, through these times to pure salvation and an eternity with Him. This means in all situations, trusting will bring a source, or flow, a fountain from the LORD, enabling you to exist and live in the days we live in. He becomes a shelter, a place of refuge, and trust as the ONE who has given us grace, poured out in us and through us his love, gives us his protection, and as we call upon him, we have his personal Word covenant, through his son, Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMassiah, that we will overcome the world as he overcame the world. No matter what comes, His grace is more than enough for you. So tap into it today, you will be glad, blessed, and happy you did. For we serve a God, who has the last Word on all things. Nothing will happen to you unless he says so. And if anything happens, His grace will sustain you, keep you, provide you with all you need to not only survive, but be an overcomer in this world and the one coming.

John 16:33  These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
1 John 5:4  For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
