3/26/24 praying for breakthrough. ❤️
Psalms 91
Safety of Abiding in the Presence of God
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”
Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
Only with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.
Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him.
With long life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation.”

Which I have reserved for the time of trouble, for the day of battle and war?

Do Not Neglect the Gathering in This Hour!
March 22, 2024 Veronika West
”Do not neglect The Gathering in this hour — for your Gathering Together in Unity, is creating a greater weight!”
So, I woke to these Words, ”Do not neglect The Gathering! I say, do not neglect The Gathering Together in Unity!
I tell you — watch — for your times of Gathering Together shall become more and more strategic in the days ahead.
Watch! For Fire, Rain and Wind.
The Fires shall ignite. The Rain shall revive and the Winds shall propel and advance you fast forward!
tipping pointAgain I say, do not neglect The Gathering in this hour — for your Gathering Together in Unity is creating a greater weight in The Realm of The Spirit, that shall bring a Divine Tipping — and a Turning and Supernatural Transformation — that will bring to birth My Kingdom Purposes in the earth!
Watch! For the eye of Leviathan is upon the Lone Rangers and self-appointed apostles, prophets and teachers!
I tell you, these are self righteous Pharisees who have rejected My Wisdom and Counsel. They have no part in Me, for I shall expose what is buried and I shall uncover what has been hidden, and I shall give voice to what has been whispered behind closed doors.
But watch! For my eye is upon the humble, the broken, and the contrite in spirit.
Only the pure in heart shall see Me — for I tell you, what you see of me in these days will be determined by your purity.
I say: Get ready! For this is a Kairos Time, an appointed time of Divine Visitation, for I AM coming to your Gatherings Together in Unity, with My Fire, with My Rain and with My sevens Winds!
Look! For the storm clouds are gathering over nations.
I say: Batten down the hatches! But fear not — for in the great shaking an even greater scattering and unraveling will take place, and the sound of My Gavel shall be heard over The Nations…
Watch and pray!
Set the Watchman on the walls of The Nations and Guards at the Gateways of your Cities — for the year of the eclipse shall be a catalyst, and many will say surely its the beginning of the apocalypse.
But I tell you — it shall not yet be the beginning of the end — but the end of an old era and the beginning of a Greater Awakening that shall bring to birth A New Kingdom Era on the earth!”
Blessings to you all.

3/23/24 Lord we want only complete fulfillment. ❤️
3/23/24 dad‘s dream about the post office.
I walked into the post office in my dream, to pick up a letter that I’ve been waiting for for quite some time. The lady went back into the post office and found a bunch of what she called “open letters.”
As I looked at the stack of letters, I realized that three of the letters were pieces of paper folded in half with handwritten messages on the inside, which allowed anyone to read. The lady at the desk said I couldn’t help but noticing these letters, so I read just a little bit of a few of them. I realized the letters were about God answering prayers. I said, “Oh, that’s OK that you read them because they are open letters, and these three letters are from three prayer intercessors, that have seen many, many miracles happen in their life. When I said that the lady at the next counter turned away from her customer and wanted to hear what I was going to say. The customers in the post office all turned their attention directly to me and said, “What do you mean that God answers prayer?” Then I began to share with them the story of Misty and how she was raised from the dead in Rome Italy. As I finished the story God spoke to me inside the dream, and said, “Tell the end of the story,” and so I continued to tell about the hospital bill that was owed. As I was telling this final stage in the story I was moved outside of the post office in the Spirit and suddenly the scene changed.
I was in Rome Italy, and there was a judge that was looking out of a window at me from the peak of a Roman building that was surrounded by statues that went all the way down the pitch of the roof. His presence was saying finish the message, the end of the story about God taking care of the $4 million dollar bill, that there was no debt. He continued, “This is how we know the miracle is truly from God because He completes, everything, there are no loose ends remaining, God‘s blessings are always complete, if they’re from God. “
As I shared the dream with my family, I remembered that last night we saw the movie “The Robe,” which is a story from a novel that I read years ago. In the story, many of the miracles of Jesus are not complete, in other words a girl is still crippled even though Jesus prayed for her, but she is now happy. One boy was healed of a crippled foot, but the other boy was not healed of a crippled foot, but he got a donkey from the boy that was healed. The Lord revealed to me in the dream that He wants to do a complete work in his people. I believe this is why I was troubled years ago. Jesus completed salvation for 100% of the humans on planet earth. His work is complete and finished.
The message to us, “the Gazowsky family“ is that everything he promised is going to be done and completed in our lifetime, just as Jesus promised, we will see it all. This is the promise of God.

3/22/24 Lord, prepare America for a chorus correction.❤️
A Nation on a Collision Course Will See a Sudden Course Correction!
March 22, 2024 Veronika West
“X” — A Nation on a Collision Course Will See a Sudden Course Correction!
A Nation(s) Marked by My Sovereign and Governing Hand!”
So, the April Eclipse in the USA is causing something of a great Stirring in the Prophetic Atmosphere. Supernatural Signs are littering the landscape of Nations at this Time!
I have been shown some things in the last 21 days that I will share soon, but as I was praying a few days ago I was taken back to the very first Eclipse of 2017 and at that time God revealed much to me concerning the timing and the pathway of that first Eclipse in 2017.
He spoke to me of a Divine Dismantling that was coming to the Nations. See the HKP Word: “America: Prepare for Displacement of Demonic Dominion“
What’s interesting to note is that there is something of a “Divine Collision course” taking place in this hour over the Nation of America, where the Pathway of the Eclipse of 2017 and the Eclipse seven (7) years later in 2024 will take place, which will clearly seen by the marking out an “X” over the Nation. (See mapy above.)
I hear the Words, ”A Nation on a Collision Course, will see a sudden Course Correction! A Nation(s) marked by My Sovereign and Governing Hand!”
Elon Musk
What I will share briefly, is that as I was praying the other day, I was suddenly shown “Twitter” — “X” and The Spirit of Revelation began to speak to me concerning Elon Musk.
Freedom of Speech and something powerful that is going to take place in the days ahead, when there will be a highly coordinated global attack that will effect Computer Technology, that will in turn have a powerful and catastrophic ripple effect on Financial Structures and Systems, that will literally bring Nations to their knees.
Entire Nations — their Leaders and their World Economic Agendas — will be brought down to nothing in one day.
This will further have a catastrophic effect on Buying, Selling, Transport, Shipping and Global distribution of Food, Water and Medical Supplies.
Global chaos will ensue… (I will share more soon)!
I was then shown a great battle raging over The Mountains of Media, Government and Finance.
I saw a Seven-headed Dragon circling The Seven Mountains.
The Ecclesia must arise and begin to Call for the Manifestation of the Power and Authority of The Seven Spirits of God to deal with the Demonic onslaught of the Seven-headed Dragon. (See Revelation 12 — more on this soon!)
Please see the First Word I received concerning the Prophetic Significance of the first 2017 Eclipse.
This 2017 Word will give strategic prophetic Insights that will speak to current events…
“America: Prepare
“Watch! For now a divine displacement of demonic dominion will suddenly begin to take place upon the earth”…!
Some of you will remember that I shared two very powerful spirits encounters (see below) where twice I was taken into the Court Room of Heaven and shown both open and sealed books of many nations.
Today as I was praying for the nation of America and the start of the eclipse, immediately the Holy Spirit took me back to these powerful encounters and again I heard these words echo in the realm of the Spirit, “Watch! For now a divine displacement of demonic dominion will suddenly begin to take place upon the earth!
First Encounter:
See: “Divine Displacement of Demonic Dominion.”
“When the fragrance of their prayers and praises fill My nostrils the books that are sealed shut will be opened, and My transforming glory will come,” says God.
Yesterday, during a time of prayer and worship, I was suddenly caught up in a very powerful vision, where I had a deep encounter with the Spirit of Revelation. In this spirit encounter, I was taken gently by the hand and lead up to two huge solid brass double doors.
As I looked at these heavy brass doors I could see a sign of the “Scales of Justice” deeply engraved upon them. I stood still for a moment when suddenly the heavy double doors began to open in front of me. I stepped inside and on taking the first step immediately I was overcome by a deep and dense fragrance that filled the air in this strange place.
“What is it”? I asked, and immediately the Spirit of Revelation replied, “My child it’s the sweet fragrance of the prayers and praises of My people”!
Then the Spirit of Revelation lead me further inside the room. Now I could see what looked like a very large Court Room. At that very moment, I suddenly became aware of what looked like warring angels that were standing in the four corners of the room.
Then the Spirit of Revelation spoke and said, “Child be still, do not fear”! As I dared to look again upon these angelic beings, I could see that their faces were fierce and bold, these beings burned like a blazing fire, but they were not consumed, but rather the fire seemed to burn more and more intense as we drew closer to them.
These fiery beings were huge in statue and very powerful in appearance. They stood absolutely still almost as if standing at attention; each one totally undistracted and undeterred by my presence. It was as if I was not even in the room.
Then the Spirit spoke again and said to me, “Daughter come closer.” As I drew nearer He lead me up to a large marble table. Its enormous size filled half of the room. As I looked upon the table, I could see hundreds upon hundreds of books. Some books lay fully opened while others were sealed shut.
As I followed even closer, I saw that the books had the names of different nations engraved upon the front of them. As I looked again I could see that the books that lay open upon the table had hundreds upon hundreds of entries written upon their pages, line by line each entry was written in gold.
I saw debits and credits and each entry seemed perfectly recorded, but before I could ask, the Spirit of Revelation spoke and said, “Daughter see, the books of the nations are now being balanced and reconciled in this hour, and the gavel of my justice and vindication is coming down, for I AM bringing compensation and recompense to my people in this hour and season”.
Now as I listened carefully to what the spirit was saying, my hand moved slowly towards one of the sealed books that lay upon the table. Immediately the Spirit gently touched my hand and said, “Child it is not time yet, but soon.”
At that moment I understood, and the Spirit of Revelation whispered again, “Beloved, all the books will be opened and all will be vindicated, all will be reconciled and all will see My justice and all will be compensated.”
After hearing these words I was lead by the Spirit out of the Court Room and I watched as the large double doors closed behind me.
Then the Spirit of Revelation said these words to me, “Daughter, now go and tell My people to open their mouths and let the sound of My word go forth into the nations.
Tell them the sound of My word now awakens the roar of the lion of Judah across the land. Tell them that the sound of My word is battering ram that goes forth to break down every stronghold of darkness and destruction
Tell them the sound of My word goes forth like a hammer that smashes rocks to pieces!”
Then again He spoke saying, “Daughter go and tell My people to open their mouths and speak forth My word and it will go forth to pierce and penetrate the darkest of darkness.
Tell My people that the power of My word will forge highways in the realms of the Spirit for the rivers of My Glory to come.
Daughter, go tell My people to go up to the high places. Tell them that when the fragrance of their prayers and their praises fill my nostrils the books that are sealed shut will be opened and My transforming glory will come, My justice and vindication will come, My compensation will come and I will pour out healing and restoration upon their land.
Daughter, now go and tell My people to eat My word, to speak my word and run with the roar…!”
Then I came out of vision!
Second Encounter:
(7 months later in the Court Room of Heaven.)
Now in my second encounter in the Court Room of Heaven I found myself standing before the Council of Heaven and I heard these words, “Daughter the time is now!”
Then suddenly I saw and felt a mighty rushing wind and the books of the nations that were sealed shut, were now being opened and I saw the Glory of the LORD descending upon the nations in a cloud of blazing fire.
A great and terrible shaking began to take place upon the earth. I watched as His hand of justice and vindication moved swiftly and powerfully upon the nations.
I watched as the powers and principalities of darkness that held and occupied regions were shaken violently.
Then I heard these words, “Watch! For a divine displacement of demonic dominion will suddenly begin to take place upon the earth!”
Blessings to you all.

3/21/24 Lord open the floodgates of wealth upon your holy ones. ❤️
Daniel 7:26-28
"'But when the court comes to order, the horn will be stripped of its power and totally destroyed. Then the royal rule and the authority and the glory of all the kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the people of the High God. Their royal rule will last forever. All other rulers will serve and obey them.'
"And there it ended. I, Daniel, was in shock. I was like a man who had seen a ghost. But I kept it all to myself.
Daniel 7:23-28
Thus [the angel] said, The fourth beast shall be a fourth kingdom on earth, which shall be different from all other kingdoms and shall devour the whole earth, tread it down, and break it in pieces and crush it.
And as for the ten horns, out of this kingdom ten kings shall arise; and another shall arise after them, and he shall be different from the former ones, and he shall subdue and put down three kings.
And he shall speak words against the Most High [God] and shall wear out the saints of the Most High and think to change the time [of sacred feasts and holy days] and the law; and the saints shall be given into his hand for a time, two times, and half a time [three and one-half years].
But the judgment shall be set [by the court of the Most High], and they shall take away his dominion to consume it [gradually] and to destroy it [suddenly] in the end.
And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heavens shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominions shall serve and obey Him.
Here is the end of the matter. As for me, Daniel, my [waking] thoughts troubled and alarmed me much and my cheerfulness of countenance was changed in me; but I kept the matter [of the interpreting angel’s information] in my heart and mind.

3/20/24 Lord take us through Low spots . ❤️
Hebrews 12
Discipline in a Long-Distance Race
Do you see what this means—all these pioneers who blazed the way, all these veterans cheering us on? It means we'd better get on with it. Strip down, start running—and never quit! No extra spiritual fat, no parasitic sins. Keep your eyes on Jesus, who both began and finished this race we're in. Study how he did it. Because he never lost sight of where he was headed—that exhilarating finish in and with God—he could put up with anything along the way: cross, shame, whatever. And now he's there, in the place of honor, right alongside God. When you find yourselves flagging in your faith, go over that story again, item by item, that long litany of hostility he plowed through. That will shoot adrenaline into your souls!
In this all-out match against sin, others have suffered far worse than you, to say nothing of what Jesus went through—all that bloodshed! So don't feel sorry for yourselves. Or have you forgotten how good parents treat children, and that God regards you as his children?
My dear child, don't shrug off God's discipline,
but don't be crushed by it either.
It's the child he loves that he disciplines;
the child he embraces, he also corrects.
God is educating you; that's why you must never drop out. He's treating you as dear children. This trouble you're in isn't punishment; it's training, the normal experience of children. Only irresponsible parents leave children to fend for themselves. Would you prefer an irresponsible God? We respect our own parents for training and not spoiling us, so why not embrace God's training so we can truly live? While we were children, our parents did what seemed best to them. But God is doing what is best for us, training us to live God's holy best. At the time, discipline isn't much fun. It always feels like it's going against the grain. Later, of course, it pays off handsomely, for it's the well-trained who find themselves mature in their relationship with God.
So don't sit around on your hands! No more dragging your feet! Clear the path for long-distance runners so no one will trip and fall, so no one will step in a hole and sprain an ankle. Help each other out. And run for it!
Work at getting along with each other and with God. Otherwise you'll never get so much as a glimpse of God. Make sure no one gets left out of God's generosity. Keep a sharp eye out for weeds of bitter discontent. A thistle or two gone to seed can ruin a whole garden in no time. Watch out for the Esau syndrome: trading away God's lifelong gift in order to satisfy a short-term appetite. You well know how Esau later regretted that impulsive act and wanted God's blessing—but by then it was too late, tears or no tears.
An Unshakable Kingdom
Unlike your ancestors, you didn't come to Mount Sinai—all that volcanic blaze and earthshaking rumble— to hear God speak. The earsplitting words and soul-shaking message terrified them and they begged him to stop. When they heard the words—"If an animal touches the Mountain, it's as good as dead"—they were afraid to move. Even Moses was terrified.
No, that's not your experience at all. You've come to Mount Zion, the city where the living God resides. The invisible Jerusalem is populated by throngs of festive angels and Christian citizens. It is the city where God is Judge, with judgments that make us just. You've come to Jesus, who presents us with a new covenant, a fresh charter from God. He is the Mediator of this covenant. The murder of Jesus, unlike Abel's—a homicide that cried out for vengeance—became a proclamation of grace.
So don't turn a deaf ear to these gracious words. If those who ignored earthly warnings didn't get away with it, what will happen to us if we turn our backs on heavenly warnings? His voice that time shook the earth to its foundations; this time—he's told us this quite plainly—he'll also rock the heavens: "One last shaking, from top to bottom, stem to stern." The phrase "one last shaking" means a thorough housecleaning, getting rid of all the historical and religious junk so that the unshakable essentials stand clear and uncluttered.
Do you see what we've got? An unshakable kingdom! And do you see how thankful we must be? Not only thankful, but brimming with worship, deeply reverent before God. For God is not an indifferent bystander. He's actively cleaning house, torching all that needs to burn, and he won't quit until it's all cleansed. God himself is Fire!

3/19/24 praying in the place of perfection. ❤️
FMB 4/10/15 "living in the place of perfection"
By Richard Gazowsky
The Lord woke me up and said ", I am calling your family and you personally to do an extreme prophetic act and intercession" As I sat there on my bed I realized that the last 20 events that have been happening to me and my family this year have been leading to this one command. Even though a lot of unexpected distractions that cause personal stress to me and my family, I knew all along God was in control and he was directing this event in my life for his perfect place of perfection in God's excellent will.
To be in God's perfect will or as brother Timothy Snodgrass would put it being at the right place at the right time is so important that it causes every other event of your life to fall back into the ashen grey background of merely existence and the true flamboyant coordinated colors of obedience are all you can truly see and these colors are so magical that they are complementary and satisfying to the site sounds, like the ringing of church cathedrals harmonious bells throughout The world. This is the otally to the presence of God's perfection.
I know what I am speaking about here appears to be metaphorical, but I am wanting each one of you to understand how complete the perfect will of God is, aspecially if you are finding that place of perfect perfection. There can be incredible tension and stress if you are trusting in your flesh to understand what's going on, but if you will simply trust like a little child God has everything in perfect order. Rarely does God Tell us all of the details because when he tells us the enemy also finds out and tries to mess up the details, so God's reason for silence is not to hinder you but instead to hinder attacks that are coming against you. All you have to do is wait for his blessings. His blessing Will overtake you and bless you with things you never could conceive of, matter of fact many of you this Sunday are receiving his blessings while you are reading this blog go on go ahead get blessed. And then more blessings and more blessings more blessings. Do you realize that every single Day of the rest of your life is going to be a day where you will experience God's wealth of blessings that come from his blessings and this is will go far beyond the wealth of money but it is a wealth of family, health, peace of mind, Family unity, money, houses, lands, possessions, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, everything including the nation of America Will be blessed.
I said all of this to come to the key part of this message and that is to receive the full complete blessing of God you need to do some things that are very detailed and sometimes difficult. In in the Scriptures many times it would save the king obey the Lord but he did not remove the Idlegrove's. This detail was important to God but obviously it was not important to the king. Recently the Lord spoke to Timothy Snodgrass and said, "Pastor Richard has not done a small detail that I asked him to do last year, tell him to obey everything," when Timothy gave the message to me he counseled me by saying, "Pastor Richard, sometimes to you it might not seem important and you might be able to reason away any human understanding for why you should obey God. but this is where obedience comes into play."
The thing that God told me to do was to buy someone A gift that was very expensive, and the person did not even have the ability to use the gift their self. At the same time someone very close to them needed exact The same gift that I was given to this person could not even use the gift at this time. I know this sounds confusing but you can see the confusion I was going through because my mind was reasoning against my commitment to obey the simple command of God. No wonder the apostle Paul said, "oh wretched man that I am." But in Paul's case he obeyed the Lord and did what he said on like the old testament kings of Israel.
I must be honest with you it was difficult on my part but I did obey the Lord. That was in this one area there was still a Nother area that brother Timothy warned me about but on this one I am still waiting for the situation to completely play out in the matter of time it's going to take. Only then will I truly know if I obeyed the Lord completely.
I am very excited to share this with you because obedience to God is so precious to me. And since I am your pastor I want you to know the value that I put on finding the perfect will of God in my life in every situation. I am hoping that you two will make a commitment to perfectly obey him in everything that you do.
Pastor Richard Gazowsky

3/17/24 Lord your ways are not like our ways ❤️
Obadiah 1:12-21
But you should not have gloated over your brother’s day, the day when his misfortune came and he was made a stranger; you should not have rejoiced over the sons of Judah in the day of their ruin; you should not have spoken arrogantly in the day of their distress.
You should not have entered the gate of My people in the day of their calamity and ruin; yes, you should not have looked [with delight] on their misery in the day of their calamity and ruin, and not have reached after their army and their possessions in the day of their calamity and ruin.
And you should not have stood at the crossway to cut off those of Judah who escaped, neither should you have delivered up those [of Judah] who remained in the day of distress.
For the day of the Lord is near upon all the nations. As you have done, it shall be done to you; your dealings will return upon your own head.
For as you [Edom] have drunk upon the mountain of My holiness [desecrating it in the wild revelry of the destroyers], so shall all the nations drink continually [in turn, of My wrath]; yes, they shall drink, talk foolishly, and swallow down [the full measure of punishment] and they shall be [destroyed] as though they had not been.
But on Mount Zion [in Jerusalem] there shall be deliverance [for those who escape], and it shall be holy; and the house of Jacob shall possess its [own former] possessions.
The house of Jacob shall be a fire and the house of Joseph a flame, but the house of Esau shall be stubble; they shall kindle and burn them and consume them, and there shall be no survivor of the house of Esau, for the Lord has spoken it.
They of the South (the Negeb) shall possess Mount Esau, and they of the lowland the land of the Philistines; they shall possess the land of Ephraim and the fields of Samaria, and Benjamin shall possess Gilead [across the Jordan River].
And the exiles of this host of the children of Israel who are among the Canaanites shall possess [Phoenicia] as far as Zarephath, and the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad shall possess the cities of the South (the Negeb).
And deliverers shall go up on Mount Zion to rule and judge Mount Esau, and the kingdom and the kingship shall be the Lord’s.

3/16/24 true victory is always in his presence. ❤️
Romans 8
The Solution Is Life on God's Terms
With the arrival of Jesus, the Messiah, that fateful dilemma is resolved. Those who enter into Christ's being-here-for-us no longer have to live under a continuous, low-lying black cloud. A new power is in operation. The Spirit of life in Christ, like a strong wind, has magnificently cleared the air, freeing you from a fated lifetime of brutal tyranny at the hands of sin and death.
God went for the jugular when he sent his own Son. He didn't deal with the problem as something remote and unimportant. In his Son, Jesus, he personally took on the human condition, entered the disordered mess of struggling humanity in order to set it right once and for all. The law code, weakened as it always was by fractured human nature, could never have done that.
The law always ended up being used as a Band-Aid on sin instead of a deep healing of it. And now what the law code asked for but we couldn't deliver is accomplished as we, instead of redoubling our own efforts, simply embrace what the Spirit is doing in us.
Those who think they can do it on their own end up obsessed with measuring their own moral muscle but never get around to exercising it in real life. Those who trust God's action in them find that God's Spirit is in them—living and breathing God! Obsession with self in these matters is a dead end; attention to God leads us out into the open, into a spacious, free life. Focusing on the self is the opposite of focusing on God. Anyone completely absorbed in self ignores God, ends up thinking more about self than God. That person ignores who God is and what he is doing. And God isn't pleased at being ignored.
But if God himself has taken up residence in your life, you can hardly be thinking more of yourself than of him. Anyone, of course, who has not welcomed this invisible but clearly present God, the Spirit of Christ, won't know what we're talking about. But for you who welcome him, in whom he dwells—even though you still experience all the limitations of sin—you yourself experience life on God's terms. It stands to reason, doesn't it, that if the alive-and-present God who raised Jesus from the dead moves into your life, he'll do the same thing in you that he did in Jesus, bringing you alive to himself? When God lives and breathes in you (and he does, as surely as he did in Jesus), you are delivered from that dead life. With his Spirit living in you, your body will be as alive as Christ's!
So don't you see that we don't owe this old do-it-yourself life one red cent. There's nothing in it for us, nothing at all. The best thing to do is give it a decent burial and get on with your new life. God's Spirit beckons. There are things to do and places to go!
This resurrection life you received from God is not a timid, grave-tending life. It's adventurously expectant, greeting God with a childlike "What's next, Papa?" God's Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are. We know who he is, and we know who we are: Father and children. And we know we are going to get what's coming to us—an unbelievable inheritance! We go through exactly what Christ goes through. If we go through the hard times with him, then we're certainly going to go through the good times with him!
That's why I don't think there's any comparison between the present hard times and the coming good times. The created world itself can hardly wait for what's coming next. Everything in creation is being more or less held back. God reins it in until both creation and all the creatures are ready and can be released at the same moment into the glorious times ahead. Meanwhile, the joyful anticipation deepens.
All around us we observe a pregnant creation. The difficult times of pain throughout the world are simply birth pangs. But it's not only around us; it's within us. The Spirit of God is arousing us within. We're also feeling the birth pangs. These sterile and barren bodies of ours are yearning for full deliverance. That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.
Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God's Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That's why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.
God knew what he was doing from the very beginning. He decided from the outset to shape the lives of those who love him along the same lines as the life of his Son. The Son stands first in the line of humanity he restored. We see the original and intended shape of our lives there in him. After God made that decision of what his children should be like, he followed it up by calling people by name. After he called them by name, he set them on a solid basis with himself. And then, after getting them established, he stayed with them to the end, gloriously completing what he had begun.
So, what do you think? With God on our side like this, how can we lose? If God didn't hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn't gladly and freely do for us? And who would dare tangle with God by messing with one of God's chosen? Who would dare even to point a finger? The One who died for us—who was raised to life for us!—is in the presence of God at this very moment sticking up for us. Do you think anyone is going to be able to drive a wedge between us and Christ's love for us? There is no way! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger, not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst sins listed in Scripture:
They kill us in cold blood because they hate you.
We're sitting ducks; they pick us off one by one.
None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I'm absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.

Psalms 112
Psalm 112
PRAISE THE Lord! (Hallelujah!) Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man who fears (reveres and worships) the Lord, who delights greatly in His commandments.
His [spiritual] offspring shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
Prosperity and welfare are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever.
Light arises in the darkness for the upright, gracious, compassionate, and just [who are in right standing with God].
It is well with the man who deals generously and lends, who conducts his affairs with justice.
He will not be moved forever; the [uncompromisingly] righteous (the upright, in right standing with God) shall be in everlasting remembrance.
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is firmly fixed, trusting (leaning on and being confident) in the Lord.
His heart is established and steady, he will not be afraid while he waits to see his desire established upon his adversaries.
He has distributed freely [he has given to the poor and needy]; his righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God) endures forever; his horn shall be exalted in honor.
The wicked man will see it and be grieved and angered, he will gnash his teeth and disappear [in despair]; the desire of the wicked shall perish and come to nothing.

3/13/24 praying Psalms 37.❤️
Psalms 37
Psalm 37
[A Psalm] of David.
FRET NOT yourself because of evildoers, neither be envious against those who work unrighteousness (that which is not upright or in right standing with God).
For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
Trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and feed surely on His faithfulness, and truly you shall be fed.
Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord [roll and repose each care of your load on Him]; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass.
And He will make your uprightness and right standing with God go forth as the light, and your justice and right as [the shining sun of] the noonday.
Be still and rest in the Lord; wait for Him and patiently lean yourself upon Him; fret not yourself because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings wicked devices to pass.
Cease from anger and forsake wrath; fret not yourself—it tends only to evildoing.
For evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait and hope and look for the Lord [in the end] shall inherit the earth.
For yet a little while, and the evildoers will be no more; though you look with care where they used to be, they will not be found.
But the meek [in the end] shall inherit the earth and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
The wicked plot against the [uncompromisingly] righteous (the upright in right standing with God); they gnash at them with their teeth.
The Lord laughs at [the wicked], for He sees that their own day [of defeat] is coming.
The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows to cast down the poor and needy, to slay those who walk uprightly (blameless in conduct and in conversation).
The swords [of the wicked] shall enter their own hearts, and their bows shall be broken.
Better is the little that the [uncompromisingly] righteous have than the abundance [of possessions] of many who are wrong and wicked.
For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the Lord upholds the [consistently] righteous.
The Lord knows the days of the upright and blameless, and their heritage will abide forever.
They shall not be put to shame in the time of evil; and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs [that is consumed in smoke] and as the glory of the pastures. They shall vanish; like smoke shall they consume away.
The wicked borrow and pay not again [for they may be unable], but the [uncompromisingly] righteous deal kindly and give [for they are able].
For such as are blessed of God shall [in the end] inherit the earth, but they that are cursed of Him shall be cut off.
The steps of a [good] man are directed and established by the Lord when He delights in his way [and He busies Himself with his every step].
Though he falls, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him.
I have been young and now am old, yet have I not seen the [uncompromisingly] righteous forsaken or their seed begging bread.
All day long they are merciful and deal graciously; they lend, and their offspring are blessed.
Depart from evil and do good; and you will dwell forever [securely].
For the Lord delights in justice and forsakes not His saints; they are preserved forever, but the offspring of the wicked [in time] shall be cut off.
[Then] the [consistently] righteous shall inherit the land and dwell upon it forever.
The mouth of the [uncompromisingly] righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks with justice.
The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
The wicked lie in wait for the [uncompromisingly] righteous and seek to put them to death.
The Lord will not leave them in their hands, or [suffer them to] condemn them when they are judged.
Wait for and expect the Lord and keep and heed His way, and He will exalt you to inherit the land; [in the end] when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.
I have seen a wicked man in great power and spreading himself like a green tree in its native soil,
Yet he passed away, and behold, he was not; yes, I sought and inquired for him, but he could not be found.
Mark the blameless man and behold the upright, for there is a happy end for the man of peace.
As for transgressors, they shall be destroyed together; in the end the wicked shall be cut off.
But the salvation of the [consistently] righteous is of the Lord; He is their Refuge and secure Stronghold in the time of trouble.
And the Lord helps them and delivers them; He delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they trust and take refuge in Him.

3/12/24 this is war❤️
“The Battle Belongs to the Lord“
1 Samuel 17:43-45
The Philistine ridiculed David. “Am I a dog that you come after me with a stick?” And he cursed him by his gods.
“Come on,” said the Philistine. “I’ll make roadkill of you for the buzzards. I’ll turn you into a tasty morsel for the field mice.”
David answered, “You come at me with sword and spear and battle-ax. I come at you in the name of GOD-of-the-Angel-Armies, the God of Israel’s troops, whom you curse and mock. This very day GOD is handing you over to me. I’m about to kill you, cut off your head, and serve up your body and the bodies of your Philistine buddies to the crows and coyotes. The whole earth will know that there’s an extraordinary God in Israel. And everyone gathered here will learn that GOD doesn’t save by means of sword or spear. The battle belongs to GOD—he’s handing you to us on a platter!”
Psalms 24
The King of Glory and His Kingdom
A Psalm of David.
The earth is the LORD’s, and all its fullness,
The world and those who dwell therein.
For He has founded it upon the seas,
And established it upon the waters.
Who may ascend into the hill of the LORD?
Or who may stand in His holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
Who has not lifted up his soul to an idol,
Nor sworn deceitfully.
He shall receive blessing from the LORD,
And righteousness from the God of his salvation.
This is Jacob, the generation of those who seek Him,
Who seek Your face.
Selah
Lift up your heads, O you gates!
And be lifted up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in.
Who is this King of glory?
The LORD strong and mighty,
The LORD mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O you gates!
Lift up, you everlasting doors!
And the King of glory shall come in.
Who is this King of glory?
The LORD of hosts,
He is the King of glory.
Selah

3/11/24 your word is our foundation. ❤️
James 1:2-26
Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come at you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced into the open and shows its true colors. So don’t try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way.
If you don’t know what you’re doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You’ll get his help, and won’t be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who “worry their prayers” are like wind-whipped waves. Don’t think you’re going to get anything from the Master that way, adrift at sea, keeping all your options open.
When down-and-outers get a break, cheer! And when the arrogant rich are brought down to size, cheer! Prosperity is as short-lived as a wildflower, so don’t ever count on it. You know that as soon as the sun rises, pouring down its scorching heat, the flower withers. Its petals wilt and, before you know it, that beautiful face is a barren stem. Well, that’s a picture of the “prosperous life.” At the very moment everyone is looking on in admiration, it fades away to nothing.
Anyone who meets a testing challenge head-on and manages to stick it out is mighty fortunate. For such persons loyally in love with God, the reward is life and more life.
Don’t let anyone under pressure to give in to evil say, “God is trying to trip me up.” God is impervious to evil, and puts evil in no one’s way. The temptation to give in to evil comes from us and only us. We have no one to blame but the leering, seducing flare-up of our own lust. Lust gets pregnant, and has a baby: sin! Sin grows up to adulthood, and becomes a real killer.
So, my very dear friends, don’t get thrown off course. Every desirable and beneficial gift comes out of heaven. The gifts are rivers of light cascading down from the Father of Light. There is nothing deceitful in God, nothing two-faced, nothing fickle. He brought us to life using the true Word, showing us off as the crown of all his creatures.
Act on What You Hear
Post this at all the intersections, dear friends: Lead with your ears, follow up with your tongue, and let anger straggle along in the rear. God’s righteousness doesn’t grow from human anger. So throw all spoiled virtue and cancerous evil in the garbage. In simple humility, let our gardener, God, landscape you with the Word, making a salvation-garden of your life.
Don’t fool yourself into thinking that you are a listener when you are anything but, letting the Word go in one ear and out the other. Act on what you hear! Those who hear and don’t act are like those who glance in the mirror, walk away, and two minutes later have no idea who they are, what they look like.
But whoever catches a glimpse of the revealed counsel of God—the free life!—even out of the corner of his eye, and sticks with it, is no distracted scatterbrain but a man or woman of action. That person will find delight and affirmation in the action.
Anyone who sets himself up as “religious” by talking a good game is self-deceived. This kind of religion is hot air and only hot air. Real religion, the kind that passes muster before God the Father, is this: Reach out to the homeless and loveless in their plight, and guard against corruption from the godless world.

3/10/24 This is our prayer of Faith. ❤️
Hebrews 11
Hebrews 11
NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation,the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].
For by [faith—trust and holy fervor born of faith] the men of old had divine testimony borne to them and obtained a good report.
By faith we understand that the worlds [during the successive ages] were framed (fashioned, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose) by the word of God, so that what we see was not made out of things which are visible.
[Prompted, actuated] by faith Abel brought God a better and more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, because of which it was testified of him that he was righteous [that he was upright and in right standing with God], and God bore witness by accepting and acknowledging his gifts. And though he died, yet [through the incident] he is still speaking.
Because of faith Enoch was caught up and transferred to heaven, so that he did not have a glimpse of death; and he was not found, because God had translated him. For even before he was taken to heaven, he received testimony [still on record] that he had pleased and been satisfactory to God.
But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him [out].
[Prompted] by faith Noah, being forewarned by God concerning events of which as yet there was no visible sign, took heed and diligently and reverently constructed and prepared an ark for the deliverance of his own family. By this [his faith which relied on God] he passed judgment and sentence on the world’s unbelief and became an heir and possessor of righteousness (that relation of being right into which God puts the person who has faith).
[Urged on] by faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed and went forth to a place which he was destined to receive as an inheritance; and he went, although he did not know or trouble his mind about where he was to go.
[Prompted] by faith he dwelt as a temporary resident in the land which was designated in the promise [of God, though he was like a stranger] in a strange country, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs with him of the same promise.
For he was [waiting expectantly and confidently] looking forward to the city which has fixed and firm foundations, whose Architect and Builder is God.
Because of faith also Sarah herself received physical power to conceive a child, even when she was long past the age for it, because she considered [God] Who had given her the promise to be reliable and trustworthy and true to His word.
So from one man, though he was physically as good as dead, there have sprung descendants whose number is as the stars of heaven and as countless as the innumerable sands on the seashore.
These people all died controlled and sustained by their faith, but not having received the tangible fulfillment of [God’s] promises, only having seen it and greeted it from a great distance by faith, and all the while acknowledging and confessing that they were strangers and temporary residents and exiles upon the earth.
Now those people who talk as they did show plainly that they are in search of a fatherland (their own country).
If they had been thinking with [homesick] remembrance of that country from which they were emigrants, they would have found constant opportunity to return to it.
But the truth is that they were yearning for and aspiring to a better and more desirable country, that is, a heavenly [one]. For that reason God is not ashamed to be called their God [even to be surnamed their God—the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob], for He has prepared a city for them.
By faith Abraham, when he was put to the test [while the testing of his faith wasstill in progress],had already brought Isaac for an offering; he who had gladly received and welcomed [God’s] promises was ready to sacrifice his only son,
Of whom it was said, Through Isaac shall your descendants be reckoned.
For he reasoned that God was able to raise [him] up even from among the dead. Indeed in the sense that Isaac was figuratively dead [potentially sacrificed], he did [actually] receive him back from the dead.
[With eyes of] faith Isaac, looking far into the future, invoked blessings upon Jacob and Esau.
[Prompted] by faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph’s sons and bowed in prayer over the top of his staff.
[Actuated] by faith Joseph, when nearing the end of his life, referred to [the promise of God for] the departure of the Israelites out of Egypt and gave instructions concerning the burial of his own bones.
[Prompted] by faith Moses, after his birth, was kept concealed for three months by his parents, because they saw how comely the child was; and they were not overawed and terrified by the king’s decree.
[Aroused] by faith Moses, when he had grown to maturity andbecome great, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,
Because he preferred to share the oppression [suffer the hardships] and bear the shame of the people of God rather than to have the fleeting enjoyment of a sinful life.
He considered the contempt and abuse and shame [borne for] the Christ (the Messiah Who was to come) to be greater wealth than all the treasures of Egypt, for he looked forward and away to the reward (recompense).
[Motivated] by faith he left Egypt behind him, being unawed and undismayed by the wrath of the king; for he never flinched but held staunchly to his purpose and endured steadfastly as one who gazed on Him Who is invisible.
By faith (simple trust and confidence in God) he instituted and carried out the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood [on the doorposts], so that the destroyer of the firstborn (the angel) might not touch those [of the children of Israel].
[Urged on] by faith the people crossed the Red Sea as [though] on dry land, but when the Egyptians tried to do the same thing they were swallowed up [by the sea].
Because of faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encompassed for seven days [by the Israelites].
[Prompted] by faith Rahab the prostitute was not destroyed along with those who refused to believe and obey, because she had received the spies in peace [without enmity].
And what shall I say further? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets,
Who by [the help of] faith subdued kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promised blessings, closed the mouths of lions,
Extinguished the power of raging fire, escaped the devourings of the sword, out of frailty and weakness won strength and became stalwart, even mighty and resistless in battle, routing alien hosts.
[Some] women received again their dead by a resurrection. Others were torturedto death with clubs, refusing to accept release [offered on the terms of denying their faith], so that they might be resurrected to a better life.
Others had to suffer the trial of mocking and scourging and even chains and imprisonment.
They were stoned to death; they were lured with tempting offers [to renounce their faith]; they were sawn asunder; they were slaughtered by the sword; [while they were alive] they had to go about wrapped in the skins of sheep and goats, utterly destitute, oppressed, cruelly treated—
[Men] of whom the world was not worthy—roaming over the desolate places and the mountains, and [living] in caves and caverns and holes of the earth.
And all of these, though they won divine approval by [means of] their faith, did not receive the fulfillment of what was promised,
Because God had us in mind and had something better and greater in view for us, so that they [these heroes and heroines of faith] should not come to perfection apart from us [before we could join them].

3/924 today we pray for Israel. ❤️
Romans 11
Romans 11
I ASK then: Has God totally rejected and disowned His people? Of course not! Why, I myself am an Israelite, a descendant of Abraham, a member of the tribe of Benjamin!
No, God has not rejected and disowned His people [whose destiny] He had marked out and appointed and foreknown from the beginning. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel?
Lord, they have killed Your prophets; they have demolished Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life.
But what is God’s reply to him? I have kept for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal!
So too at the present time there is a remnant (a small believing minority), selected (chosen) by grace (by God’s unmerited favor and graciousness).
But if it is by grace (His unmerited favor and graciousness), it is no longer conditioned on works or anything men have done. Otherwise, grace would no longer be grace [it would be meaningless].
What then [shall we conclude]? Israel failed to obtain what it sought [God’s favor by obedience to the Law]. Only the elect (those chosen few) obtained it, while the rest of them became callously indifferent (blinded, hardened, and made insensible to it).
As it is written, God gave them a spirit (an attitude) of stupor, eyes that should not see and ears that should not hear, [that has continued] down to this very day.
And David says, Let their table (their feasting, banqueting) become a snare and a trap, a pitfall and ajust retribution [rebounding like a boomerang upon them];
Let their eyes be darkened (dimmed) so that they cannot see, and make them bend their back [stooping beneath their burden] forever.
So I ask, Have they stumbled so as to fall [to their utter spiritual ruin, irretrievably]? By no means! But through their false step and transgression salvation [has come] to the Gentiles, so as to arouse Israel [to see and feel what they forfeited] and so to make them jealous.
Now if their stumbling (their lapse, their transgression) has so enriched the world [at large], and if [Israel’s] failure means such riches for the Gentiles, think what an enrichment and greater advantage will follow their full reinstatement!
But now I am speaking to you who are Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I lay great stress on my ministry and magnify my office,
In the hope of making my fellow Jews jealous [in order to stir them up to imitate, copy, and appropriate], and thus managing to save some of them.
For if their rejection and exclusion from the benefits of salvation were [overruled] for the reconciliation of a world to God, what will their acceptance and admission mean? [It will be nothing short of] life from the dead!
Now if the first handful of dough offered as the firstfruits [Abraham and the patriarchs] is consecrated (holy), so is the whole mass [the nation of Israel]; and if the root [Abraham] is consecrated (holy), so are the branches.
But if some of the branches were broken off, while you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in among them to share the richness [of the root and sap] of the olive tree,
Do not boast over the branches and pride yourself at their expense. If you do boast and feel superior, remember it is not you that support the root, but the root [that supports] you.
You will say then, Branches were broken (pruned) off so that I might be grafted in!
That is true. But they were broken (pruned) off because of their unbelief (their lack of real faith), and you are established through faith [because you do believe]. So do not become proud and conceited, but rather stand in awe and be reverently afraid.
For if God did not spare the natural branches [because of unbelief], neither will He spare you [if you are guilty of the same offense].
Then note and appreciate the gracious kindness and the severity of God: severity toward those who have fallen, but God’s gracious kindness to you—provided you continue in His grace and abide in His kindness; otherwise you too will be cut off (pruned away).
And even those others [the fallen branches, Jews], if they do not persist in [clinging to] their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God has the power to graft them in again.
For if you have been cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and against nature grafted into a cultivated olive tree, how much easier will it be to graft these natural [branches] back on [the original parent stock of] their own olive tree.
Lest you be self-opinionated (wise in your own conceits), I do not want you to miss this hidden truth and mystery, brethren: a hardening (insensibility) has [temporarily] befallen a part of Israel [to last] until thefull number of the ingathering of the Gentiles has come in,
And so all Israel will be saved. As it is written, The Deliverer will come from Zion, He will banish ungodliness from Jacob.
And this will be My covenant (My agreement) with them when I shall take away their sins.
From the point of view of the Gospel (good news), they [the Jews, at present] are enemies [of God], which is for your advantage and benefit. But from the point of view of God’s choice (of election, of divine selection), they are still the beloved (dear to Him) for the sake of their forefathers.
For God’s gifts and His call are irrevocable. [He never withdraws them when once they are given, and He does not change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call.]
Just as you were once disobedient and rebellious toward God but now have obtained [His] mercy, through their disobedience,
So they also now are being disobedient [when you are receiving mercy], that they in turn may one day, through the mercy you are enjoying, also receive mercy [that they may share the mercy which has been shown to you—through you as messengers of the Gospel to them].
For God has consigned (penned up) all men to disobedience, only that He may have mercy on them all [alike].
Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unfathomable (inscrutable, unsearchable) are His judgments (His decisions)! And how untraceable (mysterious, undiscoverable) are His ways (His methods, His paths)!
For who has known the mind of the Lord and who has understood His thoughts, or who has [ever] been His counselor?
Or who has first given God anything that he might be paid back or that he could claim a recompense?
For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. [For all things originate with Him and come from Him; all things live through Him, and all things center in and tend to consummate and to end in Him.] To Him be glory forever! Amen (so be it).

I heard The Spirit say this; “Watch! As I make My Church relevant again through My Rising, Shining Remnant in this hour.
Watch! How My Whirlwind moves to dismantle and to completely demolish the Old Wineskin of Religious Tradition and man-made Institutions, that have only brought disdain and discredit to My Holy Name.
Watch! As My Rising, Shining Remnant goes forth into the places of increasing darkness to bring Divine Illumination, Supernatural Revelation and a Great Revealing of Who I AM — and Whom I have created them to be, for such a time as this!”
Get ready, for we are The Rising, Shining Remnant that God is training and raising up by His Spirit in these days — a mighty Remnant Army, Called, Anointed and Appointed to Pursue, to Overtake and to Recover all.
For we are sons and daughters, Mantled for a Divine Recovery and Rescue Mission in The Nations of the Earth!
Blessings to you all.

3/4/24 The courts have come to order! ❤️
Daniel 7:26-27
"'But when the court comes to order, the horn will be stripped of its power and totally destroyed. Then the royal rule and the authority and the glory of all the kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the people of the High God. Their royal rule will last forever. All other rulers will serve and obey them.'
Job 12
Job Answers ZophaPut Your Ear to the Earth
Job answered:
"I'm sure you speak for all the experts,
and when you die there'll be no one left to tell us how to live.
But don't forget that I also have a brain—
I don't intend to play second fiddle to you.
It doesn't take an expert to know these things.
"I'm ridiculed by my friends:
'So that's the man who had conversations with God!'
Ridiculed without mercy:
'Look at the man who never did wrong!'
It's easy for the well-to-do to point their fingers in blame,
for the well-fixed to pour scorn on the strugglers.
Crooks reside safely in high-security houses,
insolent blasphemers live in luxury;
they've bought and paid for a god who'll protect them.
"But ask the animals what they think—let them teach you;
let the birds tell you what's going on.
Put your ear to the earth—learn the basics.
Listen—the fish in the ocean will tell you their stories.
Isn't it clear that they all know and agree
that God is sovereign, that he holds all things in his hand—
Every living soul, yes,
every breathing creature?
Isn't this all just common sense,
as common as the sense of taste?
Do you think the elderly have a corner on wisdom,
that you have to grow old before you understand life?
From God We Learn How to Live
"True wisdom and real power belong to God;
from him we learn how to live,
and also what to live for.
If he tears something down, it's down for good;
if he locks people up, they're locked up for good.
If he holds back the rain, there's a drought;
if he lets it loose, there's a flood.
Strength and success belong to God;
both deceived and deceiver must answer to him.
He strips experts of their vaunted credentials,
exposes judges as witless fools.
He divests kings of their royal garments,
then ties a rag around their waists.
He strips priests of their robes,
and fires high officials from their jobs.
He forces trusted sages to keep silence,
deprives elders of their good sense and wisdom.
He dumps contempt on famous people,
disarms the strong and mighty.
He shines a spotlight into caves of darkness,
hauls deepest darkness into the noonday sun.
He makes nations rise and then fall,
builds up some and abandons others.
He robs world leaders of their reason,
and sends them off into no man's land.
They grope in the dark without a clue,
lurching and staggering like drunks.

2/2/24 We have bought of the gold. 🙏
Revelation 3:14-22
And to the angel (messenger) of the assembly (church) in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the trusty and faithful and true Witness, the Origin and Beginning and Author of God’s creation:
I know your [record of] works and what you are doing; you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot!
So, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth!
For you say, I am rich; I have prospered and grown wealthy, and I am in need of nothing; and you do not realize and understand that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked.
Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be [truly] wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see.
Those whom I [dearly and tenderly] love, I tell their faults and convict and convince and reprove and chasten [I discipline and instruct them]. So be enthusiastic and in earnest and burning with zeal and repent [changing your mind and attitude].
Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he [will eat] with Me.
He who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant him to sit beside Me on My throne, as I Myself overcame (was victorious) and sat down beside My Father on His throne.
He who is able to hear, let him listen to and heed what the [Holy] Spirit says to the assemblies (churches).
