Covid 19.
Brought to us by Satan and his serfs. 
Meant by him to steal, kill, and destroy we, the people. 
In stepped the Government. Purportedly for our good. Not so!

What satan meant for evil, GOD allowed for our salvation. 
However, the Powers that Be, saw it as an opportunity to advance their own agendas, line their pockets and place themselves as gods and rulers over us. Power is addictive. It’s the Opioid of the elite. 
These Powers loomed themselves so large as to hide or at least obscure the path of the ill to GOD.
The government decades ago began putting programs in place to make it easier for people to line up for a check than trust GOD to provide for them. 
Does that mean that I think all Government Social Programs are corrupt? Actually, I do. 
There’s a much more effective way than the Government to help People in Need. 

I wanted us as a Nation to trust GOD in this Covid attack instead of people like Fauci. Fauci’s way was social distancing, isolation, masks, and now a vaccine – divide and conquer is the tactic. It has worked for eons to advance the kingdom of Darkness.
And what could have been an awakening to the Love and Power of GOD has destroyed more than we have yet been able to reckon.
Is this GOD’s will? 
No.
It is His will that we all come to repentance and be saved. 2 Peter 3:9

Is it too late? 
I don’t know. 
You will need to ask HIM that question for yourself. 

Is it too late for the Nation? 
I don’t know. 
I’m still praying and waiting.

And this is the way I see it. 

John 10:10  (NKJV)
10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. source

The Bloody Truth

2 Comments

Our world, our Nation, some families even, are divided. Why?

Truth. 

Like it or not truth divides. 
Truth divides those who believe Truth from those who will not believe Truth. 

I’ve not personally experienced a time when Truth is more hated than today. I am reminded though that Truth has a long history of not only being hated but denied and rejected. 

Pilate.
John 18:38 (AMP) 38 Pilate said to Him [scornfully], “What is truth?” .  .  .   source

And TRUTH was standing before him bloodied by men who had refused to believe THE TRUTH.
Rejection of TRUTH still brings bloodshed; if not with guns, knives, bombs, with words. 

Why?
Why assume we naturally know?
Why assume we naturally know the motives of others? 
Why not ask?
Why not ask with an open hand, a willing mind, and a loving heart to hear? 

Observation says there are some questions begging to be asked with an open hand, a willing mind, and a loving heart to hear.
Questions like:
Why did you vote for Donald Trump? 
Why are you unwilling to accept the Associated Press’s choice?

Politically-related questions are not the only ones standing to be asked.
There are what we might term religious (spiritual) questions too.
How ironic.
These days as in the days of John 18:38 politics and religion are intertwined.
Politics are the acts of people endeavoring to govern (or control) other people.
And people either believe THE TRUTH or they don’t whether they are in the government, the market, at home, or the Sanctuary.
The acceptable separation of same is this: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;  . . .  Amendment 1 
Amendments to the Constitution of the United States of America. (You can find a copy in just about any bookstore – for now. I suggest you obtain a copy right away.)

And the logical understanding of this Amendment 1, borne out by historical fact, is We shall have no Church of America as we did across the Pond in The Church of England.
We shall make no laws demanding that We the People attend, pay tithes, or homage to an Established Church of the United States of America.
We the People shall be free to worship GOD as HE directs us.
We the Congress, the Lawmakers, WILL NOT infringe upon or prohibit this worship of GOD. 

Truth does not always lend to being nice. Truth is often brutal. Not for brutality’s sake but for LOVE’s sake.

Let me close with a revelation of YESHUA – JESUS. A revelation that many do not like, nor understand. There’s a reason for that.

Christ Brings Division

34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword.
35 For I have come to ‘set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law’;
36 and ‘a man’s enemies will be those of his own household.’
37 He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
38 And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.
39 He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.  Matthew 10 – source  

YESHUA did NOT come the first time to bring peace to the earth. See it right there in verse 34.
Luke 2:14 tells us HE came to bring peace to Men – that includes women and children too. 
And the SWORD HE brought is HIS VERY OWN WORD – THE BIBLE. Those who believe HIM and HIS WORD know the TRUTH; those who do not, do not.
It’s as simple as that. Take it or leave it. It’s your choice.
I know that’s offensive to some. I can’t help that. Truth is what it is – Truth. 

Hence, The Great Divide.

And that divide pits son against father, daughter against mother, daugher-in-law against mother-in-law. It hurts, it stings and the soul bleeds but when it comes to TRUTH, THE TRUTH, we align with JESUS even if that means we must oppose those we love the most.
YESHUA made it abundantly clear in this passage to love HIM means we love HIM (THE TRUTH) more than even our own flesh and blood. To do otherwise is an indicator (not to be ignored) that we may yet be in our sins and have not come to know THE TRUTH ourselves. 

Do I like division? 
Absolutely not!
Do I like conflict?
Absolutely not!
But it is absolutely my prayer that I will stand with JESUS to the death. 

John 8:32  (NKJV) 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” source

Two in White

Leave a comment

The Acts of the Apostles it reads. 
Penned by Luke we believe; not considered an Apostle. A physician. A friend to Paul.  

Please Read.
(If you are like me, you will find Holy Comfort in this passage.)

Acts 1: 6 Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” 
7 And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. 
8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
9 Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 
10 And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, 
11 who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.” source

Two things.
One.       Note He did not say the kingdom would not be restored, He said it was not for them to know when. 
Two.       He did not say you will witness about Me.  He said you shall BE witnesses. A Witness is who we ARE while we wait. 

Okay. Three things.     I wonder if those two men who stood by in white apparel were the same two we met at the tomb? John 20:12

This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.

Amen. Come LORD JESUS.

If I Had A Platform

To reach the LEFT who is screaming and ridiculing that Conservatives should accept the put forth outcome and unite for the good of the country I would have a few questions. 

Why did you not unite four years ago? 
Why did you drag US through the Russia Hoax?
The Mueller Investigation?
The Impeachment?
Why did You fight US every step these 4 years?
Why did YOU not accept the outcome of 2016?
Why do YOU demand that WE do what YOU would not do? 

It is for the GOOD of the Country that WE continue to push forward seeking the truth – TRUTH IS GOOD OF THE COUNTRY.

John 8:32  (AMP) 32 And you will know the truth [regarding salvation], and the truth will set you free [from the penalty of sin].”  source
