Render to God

My children are busy about many things. Children, remember to render to God what is God’s.

Give time and priority to that which is most needful. I will have no other gods beside Me.

Be sure that you give Me the honor due My holy Name.

Matthew 6:33 - 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

James 4:8 - 8 Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse [your] hands, [ye] sinners; and purify [your] hearts, [ye] double minded.

Colossians 4:5 - 5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.

1 Thessalonians 5:17 - 17 Pray without ceasing.

Luke 5:15-16 

15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.

  

Moving Through Time

My children are moving quickly through time to the time of the end. Are you ready children, to be united with Me for all time? 

Do you desire eternity with Me as much as I desire it with you? Or do you cling to the world and its pleasures, preferring your earthly lives?

Would you prefer to stay longer on the earth or to come and be with Me?

Matthew 25:1-13

1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

2 And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish.

3 They that [were] foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

9 But the wise answered, saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

 

New Podcast: Political Climate at the Time of the Crucifixion of Jesus - The History of the Crucifixion of Jesus Series - Part 1

 

Today we’re starting a new series called The History of the Crucifixion of Jesus. I don’t know exactly how long it will be, I don’t think real long. I have been studying the crucifixion off and on since the beginning of this year and I want to share with you what I have found. There are some historical details that paint a much clearer picture of all that happened. The crucifixion of Jesus is so central to all we believe.

I hope you find the series informative.

New Podcast Series in the Works

 

I am working on a new podcast series for yall - The History of the Crucifixion of Jesus.  I've been studying the crucifixion since early this year. It is so central to what we believe.

I hope you all will find it both helpful and informative. It will probably be 2-3 episodes.  The research just goes on and on, but I'm hoping to get the first episode produced this week. 

Would appreciate your prayers on this - studying this subject does not come without its battles, I've taken several direct hits physically that have slowed me down. Thank you to those of you who do pray for me!

Whether Any Man Believe

My children, are you prepared to face what is upon you? Have you prepared your heart and made yourself ready to see the sights you will see? To hear the sounds that war brings?

Or have you gone on as though it will not arrive if you do not believe it?

War comes, whether any man believe or not believe. Seek Me for how you should ready yourself.

Jeremiah 16:4, 9-11

4 They shall die of grievous deaths; they shall not be lamented; neither shall they be buried; [but] they shall be as dung upon the face of the earth: and they shall be consumed by the sword, and by famine; and their carcases shall be meat for the fowls of heaven, and for the beasts of the earth.

9 For thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place in your eyes, and in your days, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

10 And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt shew this people all these words, and they shall say unto thee, Wherefore hath the LORD pronounced all this great evil against us? or what [is] our iniquity? or what [is] our sin that we have committed against the LORD our God?

11 Then shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith the LORD, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;

Job 5:20 - ²⁰ In famine he shall redeem thee from death: and in war from the power of the sword.

Psalms 91:5-8

5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; [nor] for the arrow [that] flieth by day;

6 [Nor] for the pestilence [that] walketh in darkness; [nor] for the destruction [that] wasteth at noonday.

7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; [but] it shall not come nigh thee.

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
