Where do you find yourself today? When John was given the Revelation of Jesus Christ he was alone, exiled on an island for speaking the Word of Christ, and testifying of Him!
Revelation 1:9
I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the Word of God, and for the Testimony of Jesus Christ.

Be Careful that the Light in you is not Darkness! 🧵
Luke 11:35
Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
Do you belong to His church? Are you among the few who are on the narrow path to heaven?
Matthew 7:13
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat.

Now the serpent was more subtle… 🧵
Lord, Keep our eyes fixed on You, keep our hearts fixed on You. Though we walk through life surrounded by snakes, and by wolves in sheep clothing, help us to have Your discernment, and not to fear.
Thank You that even if a viper attaches itself to us, we like Paul will shake it off, and suffer no harm. That people may marvel at Your great power to Your children.

Setting Our Will To His — Overcoming Despar!
Sometimes we don’t ‘feel’ like moving forward. Sometimes it ‘feels’ like our lives will always be ruled by our past, or the consequences of our sins.
Sometimes we may ‘feel’ distraught by what ‘feels’ like an endless cycle of hope and despair.
In these times of hopelessness and despair, we must remember that faith is not a ‘feeling’!
Faith is believing in the faithfulness of the LORD and His Word!

Don’t Shrink Back!
Did you begin your journey with the LORD with zeal and determination to follow Him always, to obey His Word, to love and serve Him with all your heart?
Where are you today? Have you shrunk back from that? Are you continuing to stand up and stand strong against evil, or have you fallen back into it?

The Breath Of The LORD!
Our very breath comes from the LORD! His breath gave man life in the beginning at creation, and His breath sustains us each day that we live.
Genesis 2:7
And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Job 12:10
In Whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.

Thy Kingdom Come!
When Jesus taught His disciples how to pray, one thing He said was that they should pray to their Father in heaven that His kingdom would come, and that His Will would be done on earth just as it is done in heaven!
As I thought about this part of what has become known as the LORD’S prayer, it struck me that this prayer won’t be fully answered until Jesus reigns upon this earth during the millennium!

Perception!
How do you view the world? How do you view other people? How do you view yourself?
Perception is defined as ‘physical sensation interpreted in the light of experience.’
Often we look at the world, ourselves, and others based on things that have happened to us in the past. Did you grow up in a family that was filled with strife and division? Were your parents divorced? Were you abused?

What Is The Biblical Pattern For Church?
I was listening to a local Christian radio station this morning on my way to run an errand, and I heard a song about the church being like a hospital for sick people.
The song said that if we really accepted all people, like those in sin, our churches would be full!
It sounds good doesn’t it, and it appeals to our desire not to exclude anyone in the name of love, non judgment, and tolerance, but is it Biblical?

Where Do You Find Satisfaction?
Only in the LORD can we find complete and fulfilling satisfaction!
Psalm 65:4
Blessed is the man whom Thou choosest, and causest to approach unto Thee, that he may dwell in Thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of Thy house, even of Thy holy temple.

It Will Only Get Worse!
When you see the leaders of a nation, and those in the limelight tolerate sins the Word of God calls an abomination, you know that the time for the return of Jesus in judgment is near!
Is there any ambiguity in this commandment? No, there is not!
Leviticus 18:22
Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.

Refining Fire!
Jesus told us that in this world we would have tribulation, but not to lose heart because He would deliver us out of each trial!
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.

Godly Sorrow!
What does it mean to have Godly sorrow?
2 Corinthians 7:10
For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.
There is so much sorrow in this life. The devastation from the recent floods have placed a heaviness of heart on so many.
The state of not only the world, but of those who claim the Name of Christ brings sorrow in our hearts.

True Freedom!
Have you been set free? Have you declared your independence from sin and death through the sacrifice made for you by Jesus Christ?
The greatest freedom granted unto man is not freedom from a tyrannical government, but freedom from sin and death!
Freedom that brings man not merely the temporary liberties of equality, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, that only gratifies one in this life, but true freedom that leads one to life eternal in His presence.

The Restrainer!
God is in control! He is restraining evil and the unfolding of events of the last days! He is withholding, or letting.
This means that God is allowing; giving opportunity to; or failing to prevent something from happening!
2 Thessalonians 2:6-8
And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only He who now letteth will let, until He be taken out of the way.

Ask And He Will Give You The Nations!
Jesus came to seek and save the lost! Not only the lost sheep of Israel, but all nations!
John 3:16-17
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. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved.

Storm Shelter!
Do you have a safe place where you can go when you encounter stormy weather?
Are you prepared to face high winds, crashing trees, and other objects, tornadoes, hurricanes, torrential downpours, and hail?
It’s important to be prepared physically, but it’s even more important to be prepared spiritually!
Do you have a Shelter from the storm that is coming upon the earth? Have you prepared spiritually?

Seeing Then…!
Dearly beloved, when we read the Words below, they should move us to respond!
Just look around you! The signs of the last days are everywhere! If you know the Word of God, you’ll know what I mean!
After Peter describes the last days in the letter below, he asks an important question — “Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be…?”

Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
Psalm 121:4
I think in these days it’s very important to be reminded of this message I wrote in October of 2023.
Here is the message!
Chosen By God!
The LORD chooses whom He desires! As high as the heavens are above the earth, so are His ways higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than our thoughts!

EnCOURAGErs!
What do we need as we live and wait in anticipation for the return of our LORD?
We certainly don’t need more things, whatever “things” mean to you personally!
As we await the coming of our LORD, the days will become more confusing to many, and they won’t understand what is happening!
Let’s look at what Daniel tells us; some of what will happen in the days ahead!

Strength and Honor are Her Clothing!
Being a mom is such a high calling, and great responsibility! A mom is the center of a child’s world. She loves, nourishes, and cares for her child’s every need, when they are unable to care for themselves!
The Word tells us about the love and comfort a mother gives to her child! He compares it to the love and comfort He gives to His people!
Isaiah 66:13
As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you; and ye shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
