Is the Spirit World Real?

Is the Spirit World Real?

Do you know for sure whether there really is an evil spirit named Satan? What about his minions called demons? How does all of this affect young people?

In Western cultures today there is a growing fascination with the occult and Satanism, despite the traditional Christian teaching that Satan represents the consummate evil. Statistics show Satanism and Wicca to be among the fastest-growing religions in the United States today. Popular movies make it appear cool to be able to cast spells or call on powers that mere mortals do not possess. The Gothic culture calls to those who tend toward sadness or anger.

The spirit world is clearly becoming more and more of a factor in our society. Teens today report that this is a big issue. Local high school students told me there are many openly Wiccan students at school, and that the number appears to be growing. There are also a number of students who are heavily involved in the Gothic culture and mentality, which for some includes a fascination with bondage and torture. One teen also mentioned how much easier it is to get caught up with the spirit world when drugs and alcohol are involved.

A popular genre of music

is referred to as “Gothic/Darkwave,” which one Web site describes as “a musical journey of sadness and anger.” There are also a growing number of movies focused on witchcraft, demonism and any number of “horror” themes. Books can be checked out of the public library on how to cast spells or how to be a witch. The Internet is a ready source of “how-to” information on any of these subjects. Add to this tarot cards, Ouija boards, palm readers, psychic hotlines and an abundance of both drugs and alcohol, and we have a picture of a growing number of youth today experimenting with the spirit world.

At the same time a growing number of people deny that Satan, demons and a spirit world even exist. Many “enlightened” people today make statements like “I don’t believe in a personal satan. Satan to me is more of a metaphor, and a scapegoat to take the blame for the evil deeds of man.” They believe Satan is simply a creation of the minds of men, a fantasy and nothing to take seriously. Satan is dismissed as a creation of “religion” to scare people into submission.

So what is the big deal

? Isn’t participating in Wicca or Gothic culture simply an expression of personal taste? Who are we to criticize personal choice? Aren’t these movies about witchcraft and demonism just “fantasy”? Surely we are mature enough to tell the difference between fantasy and reality. Aren’t Ouija boards and tarot cards just harmless party games? What is the problem with playing around with them?

As followers of Jesus Christ, what should our perspective be toward the spirit world? If we are willing to believe the Bible, we see that Satan is not only very real and very powerful, but God clearly commands us not to get involved with him or the occult (closely associated with Satan) in any way. Let’s understand why.

Who are Satan and the demons?

The Bible reveals that Satan was originally created as “Lucifer,” which means “light bringer.” At some point he chose to rebel against his Creator (Isaiah 14:12-15). Ezekiel wrote of him, saying,“You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, till iniquity was found in you” (Ezekiel 28:15). There was no sin, no evil, no disharmony in all God had created. This changed with the rebellion of Lucifer.

When this very first sin took place, Lucifer, whose name was then changed to Satan (which means “adversary”), apparently convinced a number of the angels to rebel with him against God.

Together they fought God and lost. Satan and the rebelling angels, now known as demons, have been restrained here on earth since that time

(Job 1:7; Revelation 12:3-4). Instead of being the “light bringer,” Satan came to be known as a ruler of darkness (Ephesians 6:12).

Even though they were defeated

by God, the demons have not given up their goal of trying to destroy whatever God creates. They have worked feverishly since the creation of man to destroy mankind, as we can see by the example of Adam and Eve (Genesis 3:1-6). Neither Satan nor the other demons can forcibly take control of a human being against his or her will, as some people fear. But that does not mean that Satan and the demons are powerless among men. We must be sure we understand what power they do have and, as Paul wrote, make sure we do not allow them to take advantage of us (2 Corinthians 2:11).

Avoid contact with evil spirits

. We can, whether we mean to or not, invite demonic influence into our minds. When Israel came into the Promised Land, God warned them not to allow anyone to practice witchcraft, cast spells or try to talk with the dead (Deuteronomy 18:9-14). The reason for this prohibition is that by involving ourselves in these practices, we open up our minds to the direct influence of the demon world. It is as if we opened the door of our minds and invited an evil spirit to come on in! Put in terms of today’s practices, this would include tarot cards, Ouija boards, palm reading, horoscopes and psychics. It would also include filling our minds with music, books and movies of the occult. There is an added danger if we also give up control of our minds through the abuse of alcohol and drugs. Our minds are precious instruments, and God expects us to carefully monitor what we allow to come in. But the idea of having or being given a special “power” is an incredibly appealing idea to our pride and vanity. Satan knows this and uses it to his advantage.

In Matthew 4 we read that he even tried to get Jesus Christ to fall for his perverted reasoning. After showing Him all the kingdoms of the earth and their wealth and power, Satan said, “Allthese things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me”

(Matthew 4:9). But Jesus understood the price of such a decision—worship of Satan meant losing His position as Savior and member of the God family. What will be the cost for us if we fall for the lie and worship Satan?

How Satan deceives us

. Some of what we have talked about may seem quite extreme. What if you aren’t involved with any of these practices? What if you don’t worship Satan? If you don’t go to horror movies, use Ouija boards or read bad books—then you are safe, right? Perhaps the most powerful way in which Satan influences human beings is through his power to broadcast attitudes. He is described as the “prince of the power of the air” (Ephesians 2:2). This seems to be a reference to his ability to transmit attitudes and tempting thoughts, and from this no one is immune.

Have you ever found yourself thinking an evil thought and wondered where it came from? Have you heard the comment “The devil made me do it”? The devil cannot make you do anything. But he can make something sound or feel so appealing that you are willing to choose to do it “on your own.” Maybe the quote should be, “The devil tempted me to do it, and I gave in.” In

Ephesians 6:12 we are told: “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”

We struggle with ourselves, with the unrighteous influences of our society and with the powerful attitudes and temptations presented to us by Satan and his demons. Temptation worked effectively against Adam and Eve, and it can work just as effectively against you and me!

How to resist satanic influence

. What can we do to fight against Satan and his powerful evil influence? The apostle James gives very solid instruction: “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded” (James 4:7-8). How do we cleanse our hands and purify our hearts? We make sure that our relationship with God is right. No other relationship we will ever have will be as important.

We must come to know God through prayer and Bible study. We have to learn to think like He does. We must ask Him to help us build a strong relationship with Him. We must repent and ask Him to cleanse us of our sins and give us the strength to stop sinning

(Psalm 51:10). As we develop this relationship with Him, we will be able to discern what is of God and what is of satan. They are not the same. Once we are able to distinguish between what is of God and what is of Satan, we need to eliminate what is of satan.

The verses above in James tell us to resist the devil. We need to remove ourselves from situations where there are activities involving Satan and his demons This should include movies and TV shows that glorify witchcraft and the occult. It should also include music that is dark in nature or that makes you feel sad or depressed. It also means that we do not give in to the many temptations that we face every day to break God’s laws. That is what it means to resist Satan and draw closer to God!

Even though we cannot see it, the spirit world is very real. It has become quite popular with many people, young and old alike, to become involved with it through Wicca or various Gothic practices. Music, movies, books and magazines make these practices seem all the more appealing. But you do not have to join them. If you have been involved, you can remove yourself from it by the help of Almighty God.

When Paul recounted his conversion, he said that Christ sent him “to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins”

(Acts 26:18). As God worked through Paul to bring people to the light, so He will do for you if you choose to obey Him.

The Long Battle Is Over

Mark Phillip Sanger

The Days of Extended Battles and Long Warfare Prayers is Over

These are the days of My Glory, MY GLORY will be seen upon you. I AM arising upon my prisoners of righteousness, right now, in this hour of My power!

Your enemies will be driven out from before you, every last one! You will be filled, sealed, healed and then spilled out upon My harvest fields!

It is the hour of My Spirit and His full abilities unleashed in Earth as We are in Heaven. He is a sovereign Spirit, He will perform every Word that I have ever spoken, every Word that anyone has received believed and kept as treasure. You just keep believing I will do ALL of the performing, you don't have to do another thing the Holy Spirit has it all worked out!

I am separating the sheep from the goats and removing the swine from My house as well!

MY Glory is coming, it will be seen upon My sheep alone first, There will be such a season of healing, restoration, total deliverance and divine repositioning.

The time has come for My Sons and daughters to make the move from pit to palace, from prison to palace, from under to over.

The qualifying factors are simple, those that have taken up their Cross denied them selves and followed ME, lost their lives and learned MY ways, those that have remained where I put them and those that love not their own lives even unto death. Those that are right NOW trusting and waiting for My appearing, THEY WILL SEE ME!

As I come down I will fill you up, this filling is a sovereign act, NO man has done this, NO man deserves or earned this filling. This is My desire for My Bride. I can't / won't be silent any longer; the pain upon the whole creation is too great. Sin and error is killing everything. Man will not/cannot right himself. I must come, I will lay the ax to the root of every thing my Father has not planted. And I will establish everything He has planted in the soil of the human race. NO man NO devil No human institution can stop My appearing, Nothing, the Earth is mine and EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE ON IT!

Satan is fleeing now from My Holy Fire that is coming, he can see it and feel it now.

Be ready your greatest hour of JOY will be Satan's worst nightmare, he knows he cannot stop it now, he has tried to steal, kill and destroy everything but he has failed.

Where ever anyone has heard MY Voice and believed My Word and trusted in MY timing, I will do it NOW!

The shift has come, it is the new day, NOW days!

The days of extended battles and long warfare prayers is over NOW. Now you will cast out the enemy with a Word, swiftly. From My mouth through your mouth, from MY Heart through your heart in Earth as in Heaven! This day we are one Son!

Blessings will come with a Word, and Judgments will come with a Word, Life and Death a Blessing or a curse will I speak and it will be done swiftly in this hour. The paradigm has shifted.

Men will now know the finality of "MY WORDS", My Words uphold the Universe. Those that think they can throw aside My Words as if they are the dead words of men's minds will soon find ME staring them directly in the face. I have taken unto Me my great power, the Kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our God and His Christ...And He shall reign forever more!

MY ARK IS OPENING!

ALL of those with a Word from Me I will establish and they will live in My sight! Those that have no Word, will be exposed as nothing more than forms of Godliness, religious.

They will see the Word of your testimony become manifest, the beauty and power will be earth shattering as My Will is released through My Son's and Daughters, My Bride!

When My Bride speaks the Nations will listen, she will wear the Nations like a string of pearls and the Kingdoms like diamond earring's, My Glory will be as a shimmering crown upon Her head! When She speaks her words will pierce every heart touching the seed I planted in all peoples and every nation.

All excuses all lies all opinions will simply evaporate, dissipate at the sound of My voice. You are My Voice, you are My Will, your are My Bride, Your time Has come!

I will say many things in this hour, impossible things, believe them speak them and so it WILL be done, In Earth as it is in Heaven!

The Day's of the endless battles has ended, your training has ended, enter my Rest, My Authority, My Love, come dwell with Me.

Soon, my dread will fall upon whole regions and nations, for they are in the Valley of decision, Now is the judgment of this world now is the ruler of this world cast out. I will keep you in the hour that is coming to judge all men.

I say to you, death goes, all sickness goes, all pain goes, every devil goes RIGHT NOW in JESUS Name, get out, NO MORE!

Job's season has ended, Satan has failed, his time is up, the sifting season has ended Satan is cast out. If you have not cursed God and died, you have made it!

The days ahead are filled with a New Bold Confidence, Assurance and you will see much proof of the New Day. You will know your enemy is cast out, you will not see his evil anymore.

You are My inheritance and I AM your inheritance. I have waited for many of you to see this truth, you thought some promise was your inheritance, but it is not, I AM your inheritance Now and forever, you must KNOW THIS, for this alone sets a right priority in you heart before Me. Your inheritance is NOT SOMETHING YOU RECEIVE FROM ME OR SOMETHING YOU WILL DO FOR ME, "IT IS ME" AND YOU ARE MY INHERITANCE AS WELL, I WANT TO BE WITH YOU WALKING IN THE COOL OF THE DAY ONCE AGAIN, FATHER AND CHILDREN, EVERYTHING ELSE IS JUST DETAILS!

I AM with you, I have always been with you. But now, you will become even more aware of ME than ever before as we begin to dwell together. What used to seem impossible will now be easy. ALL they that are incensed against you will be as nothing, you will look for them and they will be nowhere to be found!

MY WORD, MY WILL is in you, now we will speak a finished Word together and it will be done quickly.

Many will be ashamed at My appearing, help them find Me. Forgive, forget, forge ahead. It is Harvest time, it will happen I have chosen you, Life is coming to swallow up death, you have My Favor and My Blessing, your fight is over it is time to rule in the midst of your enemies!

We are there!

Prayer: Jesus thank you, we Love you, we look for you we long/groan for your appearing, your appearing is our destiny. Our Greatest JOY our deepest need! We are dead apart from you Lord, we can do nothing. We trust you Master you are our only hope, Lord you are our life, Your Kingdom come in Earth/us as in Heaven ... we joyfully await you Master!

"Hope is absolute confidence in something that you haven't seen or received yet, but you are absolutely confident that the answer will come to pass." ÿ

Revival According To The Beatitudes

I asked myself how could this apply to revival. So I started reading it from a revival perspective.

Matthew 5:3 (KJV)
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

As I read this I thought, the kingdom is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost, it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom, and seek first the kingdom. I thought to myself if we want the kingdom we have to see our spiritual poverty! We have to see our need for more! If we say we have been there and done that, we will never get more. Or, if we think we have arrived. We already got it we don't need to be desperate for more. Then we will never continue on to the more the Lord has for us. Eventually we will see even what we have to begin to wane and possibly even die out. I thought to myself many have experienced the kingdom of heaven right here on earth. They saw there poverty. They saw their need. They had a desperation that wasn't satisfied with anything less than His kingdom coming!!! I mean earth shaking REVIVAL!!! But since they experienced the kingdom they have now started to define themselves. Many say we are a River Church or whatever... Sounds harmless. But I want to be careful that by defining myself I don't lock myself into just being a River Church and not reaching my full potential in God!!! Once you arrive and start to define yourself, you could be in danger of boxing yourself into what you are. Wow!

Matthew 5:4 (KJV)
4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Then as I read this I thought if we want the Comforter to come and comfort us we need to be broken. God is close to those that are broken. I also thought of travail. It is when Zion travails that souls are birthed into the kingdom. We must become broken and travail before God...

Matthew5:5 (KJV)
5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

Psalms 2:8 says that if we ask He will give us the nations! But we first have to be meek or humble to inherit the earth. God has told us what he requires of us; to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God. It is interesting to look at those that God used in past revivals. God uses the foolish things of this earth to confound the wise! Many of these past leaders were nameless, faceless, unknowns! To keep revival you must stay nameless and faceless!!! Stay hid behind the Glory!!! Stay meek and humble!!!

Matthew 5:6 (KJV)
6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

We have to have a hunger and thirst for the things of God. With out hunger or a desire for more we will never see more! When a people become satisfied they are doomed to stagnation! Their fruit will wither! What a tragedy!!!

Matthew 5:7 (KJV)
7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

We have to sow mercy if we want mercy. The world needs to know that there is mercy in God. As we reach out to those that are outcasts or those that are rejected by society God will reach back to us. We reap what we sow! We need the mercy of God for a MIGHTY OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY GHOST!!! Not everyone that may come to our Churches are going to be dressed the way we may think they should or may not smell very well. But God still loves them and wants to touch their live too!

Matthew 5:8 (KJV)
8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

We have to have pure lives for God to send a MIGHTY OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY GHOST. Acts 5:32 says that God gives His Spirit to those that obey Him! Are you willing to obey Him no matter what! God is looking for those that are sold out! Those that are willing to be radical for Him! One of the most damaging things to happen to a Revival is for the ones God is using to have inconsistences in there purity!!! God give us more grace!!!!

Matthew 5:9 (KJV)
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

We have to be peacemakers. When revival comes if we are not peacemakers we will have a hard time with those that the enemy places against what God is doing! We are to follow after peace. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Through the Holy Ghost we have the Prince of Peace living on the in side of us. Christ in you the Hope of Glory. Those that are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God and the fruit of the Spirit is Peace... Choose now to live in peace and make yourself ready! God is on the move!!!

Matthew 5:10-12 (KJV)
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

I was told by someone one time to never forget, that those that we consider to be giants of the faith today, were hated and despised by many when they were living! It wasn't until years after their death that they became considered great reformers and mighty men of God. Are you willing to go through persecution? Those that suffer with Christ will reign with Christ!!!
Just some thoughts...

I Enjoy Having A Merry Christmas

I Enjoy Having A Merry Christmas In my own Christmas past there had been going and buying for people in our family sharing with other the true meaning of christmas with the sounds of christmas carols in the background of the holiday season with christmas music surrounding our home with snow on the ground made it especially blessed for there was farmers whom needed the moisture for the year coming up to get all that needs to be done on a daily basis for we shared with the whole entire family in what we would be doing in a couple of days, prior to heading down to all of the shelter we had fixed up food boxes with tons of presents for all of the families to be put under there christmas trees for each of them to have something to open that day.There had been so many people with them talking about christmas with being in wonderment of what will be happening as those doors was closed and about to open for each of them that had being on those lists with every name that has signed up and what they wanted for christmas even the elderly had a request in what they needed, it might sounded insignificant to us whom worked and had given to place to help the needy of our cities or towns across the nation. But seeing it as Jesus Christ would have us do just sounded it was the thing to do at that time by several of us spending time over night at some shelters,we had a couple of nights in preparing for all of those families. Heading down to the homeless shelters and bike rides in having others to give to those countless of people as well places in serving tons of love and warm wishes to be handed to the people in whom a from a bunch of us from church as we got the banquet hall cooking and preparing all that was going to be passed out to them. All the adults with each children surrounding each other waiting to be feed. We had santa claus waiting to speak to the children in which they all had a pictures taken while they were there but most of all by a local pastors speaking to them just what christmas was truly all about in what it really means in this time of year. It was amazing to see those faces as the Christmas Season is all about and they started singing carols all over that place with tears in all of our eyes with Joy of Jesus Christ Birth. As the Birth was fortold by the prophet in this sermon, [Isa.11:1-9] Spoken of a child that should be born, a son that should be given, on whose shoulders the government should be, intending this for the comfort of the people of God in times of trouble, as dying Jacob, many ages before, had intended the prospect of Shiloh for the comfort of his seed in their affliction in Egypt[Isa.4:2].

And shall make him of quick understanding in the fear of the LORD: and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the hearing of his ears: [Isa.11:3].

He had said And it shall come to pass in that day, that his burden shall be taken away. But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. [Isa 11:4].

And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins.[Isa 11:5].

The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them [Isa.11:6].

And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together: and the lion shall eat straw like the ox[Isa 11:7] .

And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the cockatrice' den[Isa 11:8].

They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea[Isa 11:9].

And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious[Isa 11:10].

And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea[Isa 11:11].

And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth [Isa 11:12].

The envy also of Ephraim shall depart, and the adversaries of Judah shall be cut off: Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not vex Ephraim[Isa 11:13] .

But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them[Isa.11:4].

And the LORD shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with his mighty wind shall he shake his hand over the river, and shall smite it in the seven streams, and make men go over dryshod[Isa 11:15] .

And there shall be an highway for the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria; like as it was to Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt[Isa 11:16] .

And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene. [Matt.2:23].

This begins with the account of Christ's parentage and birth, the ancestors from whom he descended, and the manner of his entry into the world, to make it appear that he was indeed the Messiah promised, for it was foretold that he should be the son of David, and should be born of a virgin; and that he was so is here plainly shown; for here is this account of Jesus Christ as it Refers to.Hi Royalty,His pedigree from Abraham in forty-two generations, three fourteens.

Here stands for everyone in this world in the clearing up of the descent of the Messiah from the fathers; and since his coming that nation is so dispersed and confounded that it is a question whether any person in the world can legally prove himself to be a son of Abraham; however, it is certain that none can prove himself to either a son of Aaron or a son of David, so that the priestly and kingly office must either be given up, as lost for ever, or be lodged in the hands of our Lord Jesus. Christ is here first called the son of David, because under that title he was commonly spoken of, and expected, among the Jews.

They who owned him to be the Christ, called him the son of David and the son of Abraham, and therefore of that nation and family out of which the Messiah was to arise. Abraham and David were, in their day, the great trustees of the promise relating to the Messiah. The promise of the blessing was made to Abraham and his seed, of the dominion to David and his seed; and they who would have an interest in Christ, as the son of Abraham, in whom all the families of the earth are to be blessed, must be faithful, loyal subjects to him as the son of David, by whom all the families of the earth are to be ruled. It was promised to Abraham that Christ should descend from him

But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting[Mic.5:2].

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost[Matt.18:1:18].

Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily[Mat 1:19].

But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost[Mat 1:20].

And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins[Mat 1:21].

Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying[Mat 1:22],

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us[Mat 1:23].

Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife[Mat 1:24].

And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS[Mat 1:25 ]. His Hebrew name is : "Yehosua" Meaning Jesus Saves... Which pin points to the very purpose of which why Jesus Christ coming to this world. This is truly all foundstions to bring [All] sinners unto Him which is the Gospel unto this world.

Keeping Everyone In My Prayers

Not Only Christmas Day

Lord, this is my prayer
Not only on Christmas Day
But until I see You face to face
May I live my life this way:

Just like the baby Jesus
I ever hope to be,
Resting in Your loving arms
Trusting in Your sovereignty.

And like the growing Christ child
In wisdom daily learning,
May I ever seek to know You
With my mind and spirit yearning.

Like the Son so faithful
Let me follow in Your light,
Meek and bold, humble and strong
Not afraid to face the night.

Nor cowardly to suffer
And stand for truth alone,
Knowing that Your kingdom
Awaits my going home.

Not afraid to sacrifice
Though great may be the cost,
Mindful how You rescued me
From broken-hearted loss.

Like my risen Savior
The babe, the child, the Son,
May my life forever speak
Of who You are and all You've done.

So while this world rejoices
And celebrates Your birth,
I treasure You, the greatest gift
Unequaled in Your worth.

I long to hear the same words
That welcomed home Your Son,
"Come, good and faithful servant,"
Your Master says, "Well done."

And may heaven welcome others
Who will join with me in praise
Because I lived for Jesus Christ
Not only Christmas Day

-- Mary Fairchild

Dear Precious Lord Jesus in whom I send My praises unto You with such a greatful Heart in all that you've have given for the world to know just what you have done for us upon that cross to save those whom come to you as a person whom sees themselves and lay it at the foot of the cross which gives us mercy and grace in all that we had done and to have those witness as we have nelt to pray in accepting us for what we had not of you but of this world that you have taught to us on the day of savlation to bring us home to you. For our former things has passed away so we can become brand new for You are faithful and true for you have given us the water of life that bubles up inside of with joy and laughter in our life. At times we lose our way but with your Holy Spirit teaches us as we are covered by your blood that takes us through in our prayers as often time we wait for your answers as it shows us the right path to go before you as we make our way with you. Father, we are so blessed in this nation by giving whom you are to others and gladly let them know just how much you love and care for them like no one has ever done for them, as that tabernacle lies with them that shares with them and showing them to direct thy path before them that shine is truth, that never lies, but speaks what knowledge, understanding wisdom that gives them discernment in dealing with the pains of life. In other nations Lord they totally reject you and your children that are saints whom tells them truths but often times enough as you have shared with us that trial and triblations comes just as they rejected you they will do the same with us as well. Father forgive the people whom rule and judge us and the jews as those whom tries to kill us in what they have done to jerusalem in dividing it like they had done. Those people in power will see just what you will bring unto all of those lives in thinking that you would do nothing about it. But Father, only You know just what you will do, Father those whom kept vigliant prayer over Jerusalem of which you already know in letting know just what you bring upon them in keeping us safe from harm. How it has broken our heart and have cried inside of ourselves in seeing what they have done to Jerusalem the apple of your eyes. We pray for your keeping them safe in your eagle wings that no more harm comes to them that is our distance home far away. It literally has taken us down in what satan has in store for them not only there but here as well in that coming day. He forgot how you provided us your Holy Spirit covering, as you keep everyone in your love that when you have us as you carry your people through which leads us to the promise land of the new heaven which is Jerusalem. S instead of feeling sorrowful we can shout with praise in our victory in being with you in that home where glory abounds with heavenly music that never ceases .... For you alway's dwell with us as we are your people with the thought of No more death neither No more pain for it will be literally passed away from us living in our promised home to live through all eternity with our Father God and His Son whom is You Jesus. For there is never ever any end to that city far away.

All of our voices will be prasing our God and King which is alpha & omega the first and the last whom sits and reigns on the Throne... Allelujah, Allelujah, Allelujah to the Messiah for we rejoice with blessing and honor in His righteousness whom judges us in decisions whom will stay in Heaven and whom will go to hell for only You can tell those whom don't believe in You. Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be the name of the Lord whom reigns and rules the world. For they we scorners and very mischievous and foolish that hath all kinds of abomination to mankind which had drawn down to one's own death before you For you Oh, Lord seen it all and it had displeased you so very much, how we cry out to you in asking for those people to be forgiven and send in your warring angles in providing your provision to see if they will turn away from what they themselves has done. We lay a hold in prayer for our goverment in ll forms of it in what they have done unto Isreal and unto America, To our service men and women and all families whom are fighting in this war in which we ought not to have been in the first place but those people in the bilderburg of whom are the power brokers, and those people in the secret societies whom where in rooms that was shut and locked and guarded so no one could hurt them. You Father God knows those plans that was hid in darkness of those souls and knew all of thier minds in seeing and hearing them as they want to destory your people, For we are so broken and torn apart in knowing what they have done unto you and to the future of our children in living in what they had done to Jerusalem and thier land before You Jesus. They have wanted your enemy to hurt and kill your children within it's palace and in their homes and in other countries as well as ours in their plans and devices to do the same behind closed doors in which that very horrible decisions upon us all whom obey and holding every words that you have laid before us in alway's holding on to our hope being with you deep within our hearts. Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You totally, spirit, soul, and body. I ask that You bend, break, and mold me into the person that You want me to be. Lord, teach me to trust in You and to live and walk by faith in You and Your Word. I commit to You, Lord, to take accountability and responsibility in my walk with You and Your Word. No more will the enemy’s devices and the deceptions of the old man easily sway me. I purpose to firmly fix my eyes and heart on You, Lord, totally today. I press, push and apprehend all that you have for me today, keeping in the back of my remembrance that the enemy loves a lazy or slothful mind. satan, I come against you and all hosts of hell and I reject everything that you would have for me today. satan, I refuse all snares, pits, and traps that you have set to draw me away from my Lord Jesus Christ. I rebuke you, satan, and all your hosts in the name of Jesus from every assignment you have assigned against me or my family, my property, my health and my finances. Father I ask and believe for Your best in my life today and that Your will and purposes be done in and through me. I also ask that You keep me in Your perfect will and make me a yielded vessel fit for Your work today. I place myself 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", for I chose to dwell in the secret place of the Most High. In Jesus Name, Iam a blessed child of God. I fear the Lord and delight greatly in His commandments. My seed will be mighty in the earth and my generations will be blessed. Wealth and riches will be in my house and my righteousness will endure forever. Because I walk uprightly before the Lord, light will arise in the darkness. My confusion will be overcome and I will have guidance from the Holy Spirit. There is no problems which can come against me that I will not have wisdom and the leading of the Lord to overcome. I will also guide my personal, family and business affairs with discretion. I have wisdom beyond my natural ability. Because I am gracious, compassionate, righteous and give to others, favor follows after me. Everywhere I go, blessings find me. Surely I will not be moved forever. I cannot be shaken by circumstances or fear from the enemy, because I keep the Lord forever in my remembrance. I will not be afraid of evil tidings. My heart is fixed. I trust in the Lord. My heart is established, I will never be afraid. Satan desires to see me defeated. I desire to see him defeated and destroyed. His desire will not come to pass over me. My desire will come to pass over him. With God’s power, I will outlast Satan every time. I have dispersed and given to the poor. My acts of righteousness are eternal. My horn is lifted up in anticipation of a great outpouring of God’s blessing into my life and unto other nations for a revival that pure in your Holy Spirit that come upon every state, cities, country in those whom worships you in countless of lives. The wicked will see it and be grieved. Though they gnash their teeth at me, they will melt away and their desires shall perish. My desires will be granted by the Lord and my treasuries will be filled. Iam a blessed child of God. I fear the Lord and delight greatly in His commandments.

Courageous, Selfless Ministry by the Grace of God

Courageous, Selfless Ministry by the Grace of God

But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God. (Act_20:24)

Paul was given ministry by the grace of God. "I became a minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me" (Eph_3:7). To put it another way, he received his ministry from the Lord: "the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus." Paul's bountiful ministry was developed by the grace of God. "I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me" (1Co_15:10). Also, his ministry was to declare God's grace: "to testify to the gospel of the grace of God." Paul's life demonstrates that such "grace saturated" service leads to courageous, selfless ministry.

Paul's ministry was courageous. "But none of these things move me." The things that Paul faced were formidable. "The Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me" (Act_20:23). Down through the centuries, matters less substantial than these have moved many a professing Christian from completing his calling. Yet, by leaning upon the sustaining grace of God, Paul courageously endured great hardship and danger in the service of the gospel of grace. "But in all things we commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses, in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings" (2Co_6:4-5).

Related to this courageous service was Paul's selflessness: "nor do I count my life dear to myself." Soon, he would encounter another sober warning. It was given from a prophet of the Lord, who took Paul's belt and bound his own hands and feet. "So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man who owns this belt, and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles" (Act_21:11). Those standing by, who loved Paul deeply, urged him not to proceed. Nevertheless, Paul confessed his willingness to even lose his life for the gospel, if necessary. "Then Paul answered, 'What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus' " (Act_21:13). Such renouncing of self allowed Paul to "finish [his] race with joy." Thus his final testimony would become, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith" (2Ti_4:7).

Jesus, my Lord and Master, You know the things that threaten to move me away from Your calling for me. You know the times I am tempted to hold my life dear, wanting to shrink back in a self-serving manner. Please saturate my life with Your grace that I might serve courageously and selflesslyAmen.i_amgodschild

Evil Spirits

Evil Spirits : For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

1 Corinthians 13:12 (New King James Version)

Now is the time to be looking one's own glass simply because our Groom is coming for His Bride and we ought to fetch "self" up rightly before He comes for His bride and to see all things He has for us as His children or if you wish ..."His" saints. We truly need to have an understanding inside of ourselves in what needs to to saved that is inside of us and what needs to be hewn down and put out as garbage for the trash man and leave it there for him to take it to the city dump to be crushed up and dis-mantled completely. So our glass won't be darkly dimmed at all. Instead it will be bright and lit up in heading home with the Groom in Jesus Christ our Savior whom is that Lamb of God. At different times in one's life we often break those glasses that was in the cuborads that slips out of hands then hits the floor then breaks into very tiny pieces that does scatter into very small fragments that can cut us in our flesh that then bleeds and hurts till it heals with medicine. Well this is what happens to us when we haven't been taught about "evil spirits" it tries to break down far enough to manage our own life at times without getting help from the Lord. And we go on our merry way until God get's our attention to get us moving in another direction in Him instead of Satan. We go through all emotions and we wonder how it happened to us. Often times enough we just haven't learned in all of those misconcieved ideas that satan like to do to us in our minds in how to overthrow God and allow Him to rule in us instead of God.We are usually leaders in some function in a church setting For the Devil is a Master of all Deception and is a very formidable enemy in all of our life. Yet Michael the archangel, in contending with the devil, when he disputed about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him a reviling accusation, but said, “The Lord rebuke you!”

Jude 1:9 (New King James Version)

Micheal, the warring angel, treated the devil with total respect! If you don't think the devil is a formidable enemy and has a caused a formidable problems, then why did God /have need to send His own Son to literally defeat him and to take care of the problem? We Must understand that the devil knew full well what he was doing in the garden of eden with Eve, and he knew full well what he was trying to do when he tempted Jesus Christ. Satan is the most intelligent creation of God. He knows and understands so very much about God and His Word that he actually thought he could be as God and dethrone Him. So we Must Not down play Satan at all because if we do then what we will be doing is down play the Lord God, in what He did,and the whole Bible too and we then say to oneself that it really didn't matter! But the Lord Jesus Christ overcame a very formidable enemy ! Listen Up People , everything that is very dispicable and has a nature that comes against God (and us) in any way orginated in the Devil himself. Wake Up ! Wake Up ! Wake Up! He is difinitive plan to make You or I to come against God whom is alway's our enemy and he goes to great lengths to do it in our life. So let us Not think that He's our enemy when he actually is one. He all kinds of Methods of Deception with his own agenda that attack one's peroanl abilities and activites in our every day life. He is the main reason that Jesus Christ had to come ! The truth about it that Jesus Christ has taken the key's of Hell and death from him. The key of the house of David
I will lay on his shoulder;
So he shall open, and no one shall shut;
And he shall shut, and no one shall open.
[Isa.22:22](New King James Version)And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed^[a] in heaven.”

Matthew 16:19 (New King James Version)

I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death.

Revelation 1:18 (New King James Version)

Jesus Christ has showed us in His Word Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me

John 14:6 (New King James Version)

Jesus Christ came to us so we could lead the way unto all others that road which leads to Him, in us learning how to defeat the devil just as he has already shown us.He leads us by His example! If you whom are called by God for a very specific reason with a purpose, than I can tell you that You will Not fulfill your purpose completely unless you or I learn to recognize and deal with Satan in and around our lives on a daily basis and not just doing it on the surface, but in the Spiritual realm in defeating the devil, the devil is flat out grinning from ear to ear, believe me, some of them do spiritual warfare! An unspoken truth is a flat out lie! I'd rather speak all truth when it comes to God's Scriptures. We will Never ever win a war unless we all know our enemies whom stalks us !!! We allow God to lay down some foundational truths daily and study them in being aggressive about it. and let is grow inside of your own life especially as our time on earth is getting very short of time whom know when Jesus will come after everyone. Only He know it and the exact time it will happen. We just keep on what he has told us to do in going about the business of what He's told us to do in His Book. The more He teaches usand in having our trust in Him as He speaks to us through His Holy Spirit as time goes on in our daily life then, He shows us times and events etc. Now, Satan knows those scriptures of the Word of God, he truly knows it better than some of us today, he comes on like ( the sower), when God has laid something or anything with us ! He ties to come in with something simliar but yet not so,He's cursing God, but the Lord gives us something so much deeper understanding for us to follow through with in our life. That's when our glass has been causing us to look through that very dimly glass and then it's shattered unto tiny pieces but yet we learn to step over it without getting hurt! That's how our God operates through us for satan can't be raging at us No longer Yet he had waged a heavy war but God fixed him to where he couldn't even touch us. God exposes him to us as he tried to be incognito, for he knows God teaches us to head down those right paths which is the Light of God. He manifest himself so we just cannot see him, for he is the master of the deciever, liar, and a killer, and he tries his best to materlize in us or around us with all sorts of things for he does things for his own advantage and often times to where we can see him trying his best to hurt us all. He's in our thoughts. situations, circumstances that tries to destroy us all. But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. Some people do not think everyone can actually encounter satan because he is not omnipresent like the Holy Spirit. I will say this to you that there is very little time and distance in the spirit realm! We all need to understand it for our own good!

2 Peter 3:8 (New King James Version)

Using the equation 24 hours in heaven = 1000 years on earth, we see that my three day experience in heaven took .7 of one second of our time. So we can see that I was only gone .7 of one second while driving my vehicle. We must understand that I also traveled across the universe to heaven and back in this .7 of one second.

I also came to understand what happened to a friend of mine while he was working at a meat packing company. He was wielding a razor sharp knife on a meat cutting line. Speed with the knife is how you kept up! He was taken to heaven, to stand before the throne of God. There God answered a question this man had about a situation. It had always intrigued us as to why he didn't get hurt using the knife, knowing that he had been taken to heaven. I don't believe he was there an hour but if he had been, he was only gone from here .009722 of one second! This explains why nothing happened to him wielding the knife while he was gone.

have presented this to you so you can understand there is little time and distance in the spirit realm. This man and I had traveled a great distance across the universe to where the Bible says Heaven is, had our experiences, and returned in less than a second of our time! This paints a picture of how it is possible for Jesus to say so much can happen "in the twinkling of an eye." It brings to light the reality of what He said about Satan 'coming immediately,' in His explanation of the parable of the sower in the book of Mark.

Mark 4:15
And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

When we hear God's Word in any way, Jesus says Satan comes immediately. Jesus was making a statement here. God made a statement here! The Lord says Satan comes immediately. He always comes! THIS IS A TRUTH that goes for everyone who hears any kind of a Word from God!

It is possible for Satan to visit every human on the face of this earth, in fulfillment of what Jesus said here because time and distance are practically nonexistent in the spirit realm.

Using the population of the world at the end of 1998, Satan can spend 1.343 minutes with every person on the earth every 24 hours ! And just how much can Satan do in a minute, being incognito? Think about this? And then subtract those he knows he doesn't have to visit very often and look at the time it would allow toward those few who may be a threat to his cause! Know this, Satan is no dummy. He knows those people who are chosen by God for a particular purpose. He spends a lot of time with them and their minds, unknown to them.

Jesus revealed that the enemy comes in while men sleep. He said this right after the parable of the sower.

Matthew 13:25
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

The wheat is the seed of the Word, and the enemy plants weed seeds right along with the good seed, 'immediately,' and moves on to the next victim! He comes in 'unawares.' He did it with Eve! He did it with Judas! John 13:26,
Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

Satan did it with Peter!

Matthew 16:21
From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. 22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. 23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.


Satan beguiles us in our minds!

The Bible says Eve was beguiled in her mind. Looking at synonyms for beguiled we see a broader picture of what Satan can do to our minds by giving us the right thoughts, at the right time, in the right circumstances.

deceive - Satan loves to give interpretations - He did with Eve!

delude - To tone down what God meant = Oh, it'll be all right - He didn't really mean that, He meant this.

hoax - What Satan presented to Eve was a hoax, unknown to her.

trick - He was able to trick Eve because she didn't really understand what God meant and that Satan would come! (Parable of the sower)

captivate - He captivated her thoughts - first by getting her attention.

charm - Satan can be charming; remember he is an angle of light.

distract - Satan was able to distract Adam and Eve from what God said.

divert - He diverted her thinking!

allure - He allured her with the attractiveness of the fruit.

attract - He got her attention.

entice - He tried to entice Jesus by offering Him the kingdoms of the world! He enticed Eve with the promise of knowledge!

seduce - He had seduced Eve's mind when she gave in to what he said.

tempt - He successfully tempted Eve, but not Jesus, because Jesus knew God's thought behind His word. Jesus also knew Satan was real. Eve was unaware of the enemy.

bait - Satan baited Eve's mind!

tantalize - That apple looked good.

fascinate - I'm sure Eve was fascinated with the thought of being like God!

bewitch - hypnotize - mesmerize - spell bind - immerse - curse - enchant - possess - captivate - occupy

Can Satan bewitch or occupy the minds of Christians, unknown to them? The answer to that is a resounding, "YES," just by looking at what Jesus said to Peter, "Satan, get thee behind me."

Jesus knew where Peter's thoughts had originated. Jesus had just revealed 'the plan of God' to Peter (Peter had 'heard the word', like in the parable of the sower) but because of the lack of understanding, the cares of this world, and the type of love we as humans understand, Satan used Peter and came at Jesus' purpose. Satan and all evil spirits come against what God is doing as a top priority. Everything else they come against is secondary!

Satan uses what he already has in you to come against the truth, or what God wants to use you for - your true purpose. (You will see this picture more and more clearly as you read future articles about spirits.) Satan couldn't use or get control of Jesus because he had nothing in Jesus!

John 14:30
Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

Satan used what he already had in Judas. Here is where Satan put the thought into Judas to betray Jesus.

John 13:1
Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end. 2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;

Satan's opening into Judas' mind was the fact that Judas was already a thief. Wealth (lust of money) is a care of this world! Judas didn't receive the idea to betray Jesus just to betray Him! He received the idea to betray Jesus because of what was already in him; he wanted money, power, prominence (desires already in him)! Lust was the opening to those particular betrayal thoughts. Judas had been stealing from the bag of money all the time, but now the devil had planted a new idea (seed) in his head/heart. Because Judas accepted the thought, Satan was able to come in and actually bewitch (hypnotize - mesmerize - spell bind - immerse - curse - enchant - possess - captivate - occupy) his mind!

John 13:26
Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

At that point Satan came into control, in fulfillment of this scripture's picture:

Proverbs 5:22
His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins. 23 He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.

Judas' own iniquities (lawlessness, sins) already performed (already in him), allowed the enemy to come in legally, take control and keep him prisoner! When God speaks about Satan, He says:

Isaiah 14:17
17 That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?

Satan had control of Judas' mind/actions when it came to stealing and he could make him do it over and over! It's like having a spirit of anger. It rises up when it wants to and the person has no control over it.

Here is what happened after Satan had moved on and Judas gained control of his thoughts!

Matthew 27:3
Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4) Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that. 5) And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

Judas knew all along that Jesus was innocent. He didn't just learn that from seeing Him condemned. He had simply lost control of his own thoughts, his reasoning power!

Have you ever gotten angry or emotional and did something, then after it was over you wondered why you did it? You wished you hadn't! You weren't really in control of your own thoughts, were you?

There is one more account I need to emphasize at this point. It's the record of Jesus' temptation. When Jesus dealt directly with the devil, He used the law and said, "It is written!" What He really did was to speak truth in all of his temptations. Jesus said the truth sets us free. Here we see the truth keep Jesus free!

Matthew 4:3,4
And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

Satan had just tempted Jesus' with a care of this world - the flesh!

Matthew 4:5-7
5) Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

Satan has just encouraged Jesus to tempt (test) God! Of course Jesus knew better. In my experience, I didn't! The day I had my first visions, those of Russia, the Middle East, the Glory of the Lord, etc., Satan was there (unknown to me) pumping thoughts into my mind. He wanted to get the credit and throw me off course by telling me all this was of the devil! I walked to the south end of the hill and below me was an oil well, of which I was the pumper. It was not running and I had a thought I didn't realize wasn't mine. I said, "God, if this is of you and not of Satan, crank up that oil well!" Had I known the enemy had spoken to my mind and had I known the truth of God's word, I would have spoken to Satan and said, "It is written, I should not tempt God." Am I wrong? Well here is God's audible answer to me, "Tempt the Lord, thy God, not unwisely!"

Matthew4:8-10
Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and showeth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

Satan had just tempted Jesus with all he could offer! You will notice that Jesus used the Word correctly and didn't twist it to make it mean something for personal gain. He knew what God meant when He said it and that is why it is so important to learn what God meant in His Word. If we don't understand what God meant, we are open bait for the devils' deceptions! That is just a fact!

I will be writing a lot more about thoughts and spirits and their ability to control our thinking in other articles in this section. But to close this article, let me say this to you. Any time God does anything, the enemy always comes to give interpretation, to corrupt, to delude, to confuse, to add to, to kill, to steal, or to destroy what God did or said. That's what he did in the garden with Eve and that is what he does with US!

Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness. If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give the light.

Notice here that Jesus said we could have light in us (our bodies) and still have a part that was dark, ...be full of light, having no part dark.... He would not have said, "having no part dark," if it were not possible to have darkness in with the light.

Yes, we as Christians can have spirits that are operating in us (our flesh) and even controlling our lives. If the anger in you rises up and causes trouble with others, it has altered your life and changed the path you were on. It changed the path, not you! Anger has landed some people into jail and cost some their jobs. Is that not controlling your life? I know some will hang on to the words "influencing your life."

But I speak as one delivered; these things that were unknown to me at the time controlled my life's destiny.

(Let me say here, one of the most important words ever given to me was given through the spirit of anger. I saw the spirit, but knew the word was from God. I knew the same thing had happened to this person that had happened to me!)

If you have a deep seed of anger, it's there for one of two reasons. Either it is there because it has been passed down from a previous generation, or it is there because of something that happened to you. I had a legitimate reason to be mad, but that was beside the point - THAT DOES NOT MATTER. If you have a legitimate reason to be angry, it doesn't matter. What matters is the fact that you have anger in you, and it is a spirit. It is influencing and changing your life, whether you believe this or not!

Is your anger unknowingly towards God because you believed for something that didn't happen? No matter what anger it is, the Lord wants to deliver you!

5.
And he asked the scribes, What question ye with them? And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit; And wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out; and they could not.

(The disciples had called the spirit out and it hadn't worked.)

Then Jesus spoke to those there, saying that they were of little faith and told them to bring the boy to him.

Mark 9:19
He answereth him, and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him unto me. 20 And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, straightway the spirit tare him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.

When the boy came into the presence of the Lord, the spirit rose up in the boy to control him one more time. Then Jesus spoke with the father of the boy.

Mark 9:21-22
And he asked his father, How long is it ago since this came unto him? And he said, Of a child. And ofttimes it hath cast him into the fire, and into the waters, to destroy him: but if thou canst do any thing, have compassion on us, and help us.

Obviously, the spirit had been in the boy for quite a while. We need to understand that the length of time a spirit has controlled or harassed a person is relevant to what must happen to get rid of it. The longer a spirit is resident, either inside or on the person, the more it is entrenched or attached. So there is more to understand than just what type of spirit it is. Then we see the father of the boy ask for help and here is Jesus' answer.

Mark 9:23-24
Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

Honesty with God is always the best avenue. The father asking the Lord for help, in tears, reminds me so much of my very sincere, "Oh God, help me," when I needed delivered from anger.

Mark 9:25-26
When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; insomuch that many said, He is dead.

Notice that Jesus told the spirit "and enter no more into him.." This particular spirit was 'in' the person, not 'on' the person. There is a great difference. What Jesus said also reveals that you can tell this type of spirit not to come back. From this we can learn that a spirit has the ability to intensely control the soul and flesh of a person. This man's son looked so lifeless after the spirit was gone that many said he was dead.

Mark9:27-29
But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. And when he was come into the house, his disciples asked him privately, Why could not we cast him out? And he said unto them, This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.

Jesus said the reason they couldn't cast this type of spirit out was because, "This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting." The King James (Open Bible version, with study notes) also shows us that "come forth" could be translated "be driven out."

"This kind (type) can be driven out by nothing (no other way), but by prayer and fasting." In other words, Jesus was telling the disciples that this particular kind of spirit had to be driven out through prayer and fasting, that just speaking to it, "In the name of Jesus" (poof!), doesn't make it happen! This helps explain the intensity we must have in some cases to take the Kingdom of God by force!

In Matthew's account we see that Jesus also spoke, in answer to the disciples, about having the faith of a mustard seed, etc.

Matthew 17:19 -20
Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out? And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

From my experience, I believe that the disciple's lack of faith was the reason they did/could not pursue the spirit.

Matthew 17:21
Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.

Jesus had just spoken to them about their lack of faith. Then He says, "However" this type "goeth not out" but by prayer and fasting. ("And fasting" is not included in all versions.) It is clear that He was saying, "However, this is the only way this type will go out." Jesus had just given them more information about this type of spirit. It takes this knowledge, this understanding, along with faith!

The Greek word for "goeth not out" is the same word translated "can come forth" and "be driven out" in the book of Mark. So we can arrive at the same picture given in Mark.

Howbeit (however) this kind goeth not out (must be driven out) by prayer (and fasting?).

You may be asking why Jesus just spoke and it happened? For one thing, Jesus had the fullness of all the gifts of the Spirit. We don't individually have all the gifts, but corporately we do. This is why it is so important to recognize the body of Christ. To recognize the body of Christ means that we must recognize the gifts given by God to each person. This sheds light on why Paul said that some Christians are sick and die because they haven't discerned "the body of Christ." In my case it took team work to deliver me from the spirit of Fear!

At any rate, Jesus was telling His disciples that for them to have success, pressure must be applied to the spirit through prayer (and fasting?)!

I have shown you the scriptural evidence Jesus indicated that some spirits must have 'pressure applied' and won't leave by just speaking to them in faith. The testimony of my deliverance from the spirit of fear verifies this fact. The spirit of fear was very entrenched in me and probably was there from birth (family curse). It had a 'strong hold' on me!

As they were praying for me, they were told it was the spirit of fear. One lady placed her hand just below the bottom of my chest bone and started to push up. It was where I had been back handed, with the words "Come out," etc. Surprisingly, I felt something move inside me. I thought, "My God, this is real!" As she pushed it up, I felt it move more and more but then I started to realize that it had tentacles all through my flesh (body) like an octopus, with its head being where she was pushing. I could feel the tentacles tearing at my flesh as this thing moved up in my chest. (I want to make it very clear here that the spirit did not move unless she pushed it up with her hands. She knew exactly where the spirit was as it moved up.) They continued praying a warlike prayer in the Spirit and using the name of Jesus! It was the voice of the Lord delivering me. The spirit was tearing my flesh and started to make me bleed out my mouth. When the group realized I was bleeding, they commanded it to stop tearing me and it did.

My pastor told me afterward that I would be weak and sickly for three days. He was right. I rested and listened to Christian music most of the time. The amazing thing was that the next morning I felt like I woke up to a new world. It didn't look the same, it didn't feel the same, but it was the same. I finally realized I was the one who was different, not the world. I definitely saw clearer, in fulfillment of what Jesus said.

Matthew 7:4
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5) Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

I have found that in every case, when I have been delivered of a spirit, it has left me with clearer vision of what that particular spirit produces. That "aura" we have around us, produced by a spirit, most certainly blinds us to even seeing its works in ourselves clearly until we are delivered of it.

I should have written down everything that I realized was missing from my mind that next morning. The thought pattern that I remember the most as being gone was the thought pattern that contained the "What if's." "What if this" and "What if that," is easily seen to be of the spirit of fear. I remember (before the deliverance) standing in front of people and having the spirit of fear rise up so much that it stopped me from delivering what I was to say. I had always thought that it was "just me!" Well, it wasn't, it was the spirit of FEAR!

To understand a little more about the unknown ability of spirits, I share something about a person who was told they had fear in them. This person denied it; most people do. You must understand that the spirit can deny it's own existence. The pattern of denial is directly related to the type of spirit it is.

I have shared this experience with you in the hope it will help you to recognize the fact that in some cases it takes 'pressure' to remove a spirit. Perhaps you have picked up some other nuggets to add to your knowledge of spiritual warfare. The lack of knowledge and understanding was the reason group A didn't get the job done.

In closing, let me make it very clear, fasting was involved in my deliverance. It was the Lord who delivered me from the spirit of fear through His Spirit, His Name, and some obedient people!

Now that old shattered glass has become brand new and it sparkels and shines every time it's been cleaned how awesome it is to see just how beauitful it is to see it ..You would almost have to put on a pair of sun glasses to keep the eyes safe from the brightness of the sun. i_amgodschild

Baby Jesus and His Mother Mary and Others

Introduction which leads to the Big Picture of what is to becoming into the world to have certainty of what is about to happen through God and his infinate presence to bestow upon the world in those times of the years between 40 until 4B.C. as 2 sacred Moments what about to come forth into the world by 2 women and 1 husband during those years. By the women having 2 super natural conceptions without having any kind of seeds of any man to be pured upon them by sending His Word by an Angelic being unto them. And unto One of their men during that time. For us to alway's remember that God sees and hears what we say when His angle shares with us in what is being fortold in the coming time, that comes in an unseeing way and means unto our life as uncut and very intoxicants with one's own yearnings to do God's will that is answered by God. Waiting on His answers is so important unto us today. Luke 1:26-55

26And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

27To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

28And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

29And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

30And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

31And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

32He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

33And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

34Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

35And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

36And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

37For with God nothing shall be impossible.

38And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

39And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;

40And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.

41And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:

42And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb.

43And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

44For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

45And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.

46And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord,

47And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.

48For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

49For he that is mighty hath done to me great things; and holy is his name.

50And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.

51He hath shewed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

52He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.

53He hath filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he hath sent empty away.

54He hath helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;

55As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed for ever.

The doctrine of Christ is what the wisest and best of men have ventured their souls upon with confidence and satisfaction. And the great events whereon our hopes depend, have been recorded by those who were from the beginning eye-witnesses and ministers of the word, and who were perfected in their

understanding of them through Divine inspiration. (Lu 1:5-25) Song done by: Mark Lowery and The Gathers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1oHJR2g7Tw

He Was Born - As A Jewish Messiah

As this Year is about to End and we look upon our hearts of the Sword of God's Word in the Coming Events of " Christmas Eve " The sounds of our Hearts In bringing in that kinda of love that ought to have been throughout the whole year in everybody's life in this vast world that you and I live in today. But as we've seen on our televisions and new's reports that love just isn't so in some of the Arab Nations that few of those tribes that have total hate for all of the people whom does not love the 'Messiah" and try's to have people destroyed at any cost that beyond the scope of what's inside of them as individuals which have been taught by their elders whom flat out hates Jewish people and those whom have been grafted in with them as enemies of this world. At every cost to the Nation of Isreal they are along with leaders of the world are doing there best to take away a place called " Jerusalem " and it's land that was given unto them by God the Father Himself "But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other people.{ Lev.20:24] And I have also established my covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the land of their pilgrimage, wherein they were strangers.[Ex.6:4]6For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.[Deut.7:6] 8Ye shall not do after all the things that we do here this day, every man whatsoever is right in his own eyes.

9For ye are not as yet come to the rest and to the inheritance, which the LORD your God giveth you.

10But when ye go over Jordan, and dwell in the land which the LORD your God giveth you to inherit, and when he giveth you rest from all your enemies round about, so that ye dwell in safety;

11Then there shall be a place which the LORD your God shall choose to cause his name to dwell there; thither shall ye bring all that I command you; your burnt offerings, and your sacrifices, your tithes, and the heave offering of your hand, and all your choice vows which ye vow unto the LORD:[Deut.12:8-11].

These who love Jerusalem are overshadowed by the high and mighty of the world: President George W. Bush, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and foreign ministers from many Arab states. Among those are known terrorists who are being treated as honored diplomats.
But we alway's we cry out and pray for our lives in the 'Messiah" whom alway's protects all whom is in Himself and He knows just whom they are and how they have been covered, smothered,and hovered all over His children in protecting them under His wings, as only a Father can do for each one whom has there names written in the Lambs book of life. But Yet as this has been fortold by "Prophets that these days would come unto people and what to expect and how to deal with those issues that surrounds us. Even the 'Messiah" himself has given us warning's about it too. But to lay it all down at this time of year we know whom our hopes and love belongs to and by having faith in knowing within us as His truths will prevail for all of His people whom are called "Saints" and unto those whom come to believe in Him whom desires them to be with all of in eternity where there will be peace and joy, singing, dancing with heaven's instruments playing and total worship of the "Messiah" as the His own light shines forever in the New Jerusalem. What an aswesome time it will be feasting with the Master and King of Kings as our Father whom reigns forever and ever. We will hear all of heavenly angles, harmony shout in truimph with glory abounds as His Father will be right by His Son with a host of the elders and prophets having smiles on those faces with every kind of animals among us there as we are all around His throne. That is beyond compare to anything we've seen or heard of here in the world today i_amgodschild.

i _amgodschild Would love to "Thank Everyone,"whom has allowed Myself to Post in Groups and has either has posted this or had sent posting to me from all of those e-mail address! Some of them I will or have passed on to all readers whom looks at all blog sites that I use.i_amgodschild wishes to Thank You for allowing in this site,group sites, web sites and other prayer sites as well in holding one another up for prayer's being totally united in everyone around this world, it's about Jesus Christ first and prayers,intecessory prayer's and at other times about this vast world we live in today which this old world as we all know it is slowly departing to be reaching our home in glory.

Grace for Serving the Lord Acceptably

Grace for Serving the Lord Acceptably

Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. (Heb_12:28)

We who follow Jesus dwell in a unique kingdom, the kingdom of God. "For our citizenship is in heaven" (Phi_3:20). In order to serve the Lord acceptably, we must learn to serve in a unique, heavenly manner — by grace.

We all began in a different kingdom than the Lord's. We were under the powerful influence of spiritual darkness. We existed in a realm devoid of true love. Then, our great God rescued us, bringing us into a kingdom of light and love: "giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love" (Col_1:12-13). Furthermore, in that former kingdom, we were easily threatened by every manner of instability. Our lives were built upon the sand of philosophical speculations and human inadequacies. Now, we are in "a kingdom which cannot be shaken." We entered this kingdom by the rock solid provision of grace, and we stand in this same grace today: "justified freely by His grace . . . we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand" (Rom_3:24; Rom_5:2). When circumstances change, we need not be shaken. Our King and His grace are constantly available and always sufficient. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever" (Heb_13:8).

When we received the King as our Lord and Savior (see Joh_1:12), the full resources of His kingdom became our portion forever. God "has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ" (Eph_1:3). Yet, in a profound sense, we are still receiving His kingdom. "We are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken." This process of receiving is comprised of practical appropriation of His kingdom provisions, by faith. The provision of grace is especially strategic, since this is how we serve God acceptably. "Let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably." We are called to serve our King. We cannot serve Him by merely attempting to do the best we can. That would be law performance, energized by the flesh. We need to have grace as our empowering resource, just as the early church had. "And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all" (Act_4:33). Desiring to minister by grace allows our service to flow forth acceptably as worship unto the Lord: "with reverence and godly fear."

Lord Jesus, my King, I praise You for bringing me into Your unshakable kingdom. I want to serve You acceptably — having my service arise to You from a worshiping heart. So, I humbly look to You to fill my life with Your grace, in Your name, Amen.

THE SOON COMING CLIMAX-Bible Prophecy Of The Latter Day

THE SOON COMING CLIMAX
(BIBLE PROPHECY—PROOF THE BIBLE IS TRUE AND
WE ARE NOW IN THE LATTER DAYS) and HOW TO BE SAVED
(A brief summary)

This message may be called a road sign of warning. Some may look at a sign that reads—THE BRIDGE IS OUT, and say, "Oh, someone is just trying to scare us into taking another road; let's go on the same way." They go on and plunge to their death. The sign was not meant to scare people, but to warn them of impending danger. The sign was put there, because someone cared and didn't want others to perish.
God wants you to know, WHEN YOU SEE THESE THINGS COME TO PASS (the prophecies from the Bible in this message), KNOW YE THAT THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS NIGH AT HAND-Lk 21:31.

...> Will Russia and some Arab nations invade Israel and the U.S.A. become involved? Yes.

Will 1/4th of the world's population die? Yes.

Will there be a one-world system or global economy? Yes.

Will diseases increase such as AIDS? Yes.

Did you know the Bible tells us about what is happening?

...>

WHAT IS GOING ON?

People have said the end was near many times in the past—true. But did you know the Bible shows us no prophecy of the latter days meant anything until Israel was reborn into a nation? Did you know God's Word indicates to us a generation would not pass from Israel's rebirth, till all be fulfilled (which includes the Rapture, the Tribulation, and Jesus Christ's return)? A generation could be as little as 40 years or as much as 70 to 80 years (Note Parable of the Fig Tree in site menu).

Many people have been preaching about the latter days of the end times in churches, on radio, TV, and through books and magazines. Some include Billy Graham, Hal Lindsey, Ray Brubaker, John Hagee, Zola Levitt, Jack Van Impe, Peter Lalonde, and Tim LaHaye just to mention a few. To those that understand the Bible, no explanation is needed. To those that are prideful, self-centered, that love this world, that despise God's correction, that are contentious or seeking the praise of men rather than of God, no explanation is possible-ref Dan 12:4, 10; Mt 24:37, 39.

It has been said that it is virtually impossible for anyone to make 11 straight predictions, 2000 years into the future. There is only one chance in 8 x 10 to the 63rd power, or 80 with 63 zeros after it that such a thing could be done. If such a set of predictions existed, it would have to be the Word of God.

Consider, could you write eleven straight predictions that would take place in the year 4000 A.D.? Include the rebirth of a specific nation and exactly how it would be reborn. Include specific nations that would exist and certain nations that would be allied together, and the exact size of a nation's army. Include what the people and church would be like. Also include the names of actual cities and name certain crops and fruit trees that would exist. Do eleven straight prophecies and be exactly correct on every single one. The Bible not only does this eleven times, but hundreds of times with absolute, perfect accuracy. If this is so, even the most skeptical person (that is truthful) would have to agree that there is indeed a God and the Bible has to be His Word. 2 Pet 1:20,21-KNOWING THIS FIRST, THAT NO PROPHECY OF THE SCRIPTURE IS OF ANY PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. FOR THE PROPHECY CAME NOT IN OLD TIME BY THE WILL OF MAN: BUT HOLY MEN OF GOD SPAKE AS THEY WERE MOVED BY THE
HOLY GHOST. O FOOLS, AND SLOW OF HEART TO BELIEVE ALL THAT THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN-Lk 24:25. However, believing there is a God and acknowledging the Bible is the Word of God does not save a person. A person needs to admit they are a sinner, repent, and receive Jesus Christ as their only hope of being saved. This is done by faith (or trust).

Let's prove the Bible is true and we are nearing the end of the last generation before Christ returns.

1. The Jewish people would be scattered worldwide; yet Israel would become a nation again after a long time and at a time the Bible calls the "latter days"-ref Isa 66:8; Mic 5:3; Ezek 38:8. Against what appeared to be impossible odds, this prophecy has been fulfilled. It happened as predicted on May 14, 1948 after about 2500 years. That's 1 out of 1.
Note: Israel was destroyed in approximately 721 B.C. and Judah about 135 years later. Since that time, approximately fourteen different peoples have possessed the land of Israel. Yet as the Bible said, the nation of Israel would be reborn.
The rebirth of Israel was a key sign, indicating we had entered a time period called the "latter days." It was the beginning of a countdown leading to the Tribulation and culminating with the Battle of Armageddon and the return of Jesus. Along with the fulfillment of this crucial event are over 360 prophecies that would all come together, so we might recognize that the Tribulation is very close at hand. Some of these are listed here.
Yet the Bible foretells that most people would not believe these things, despite the overwhelming evidence of the signs from God's Word being fulfilled exactly as predicted. As people refused to believe the flood was coming in Noah's time, so people today willingly choose to disregard the signs of the times.

2. Israel shall be brought forth in one day, at once-ref Isa 66:8. Prophecy fulfilled-May 14, 1948. That's 2 out of 2.
Note: On Nov. 29, 1947, the General Assembly of the U.N. approved a resolution calling for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. On the morning of May 14, 1948 (the last day of the British mandate), a meeting of the People's Council took place in Israel to decide on the name of the state and to finalize the declaration. At precisely 4 pm, the proclamation ceremony began at the Tel Aviv museum. The 979 Hebrew words of the Scroll of Independence were read. All stood, and the scroll was adopted. The notorious White Paper, issued by the British in 1930 restricting Jewish immigration, was declared null and void. Members of the People's Council signed the proclamation. David Ben-Gurion rapped his gavel, declaring, "The State of Israel is established. This meeting is ended." Israel was brought forth as a nation in one day, at once, exactly as predicted. At midnight, the British soldiers and high commissioner would leave. President Truman was swift in announcing U.S.
recognition of Israel. The following morning, on May 15, Israel was under attack by the Egyptian, Syrian, Lebanese, Jordanian, and Iraqi forces.

3. Israel would be brought forth (or reborn) "out of the nations"-Ezek 38:8. Prophecy fulfilled-May 14, 1948. That's 3 out of 3.
Note: As previously stated, on Nov. 29, 1947, the General Assembly of the "United Nations" approved a resolution calling for the establishment of a Jewish state in Palestine. This prophecy was perfectly fulfilled. Consider, for centuries the land of Israel had been occupied by many nations. Israel was "brought forth out of the nations"—the children of Israel from many nations have been returning to their ancient homeland.

4. Israel must regain the city of Jerusalem-Joel 2:32; Isa 28:14; Ezek 22:19. This happened just as predicted in 1967. That's 4 out of 4.
Note: The Bible gives us two methods so we would know the time we are in. One is by Israel's rebirth. The other, by a precise line of events that would all come together at one time. Israel was reborn on May 14th, 1948. The Bible indicates that from Israel's rebirth a generation would not pass till all be fulfilled. We are not setting any date; however, it seems clear from Israel's rebirth and the signs of the times— that we are living in the generation in which the Rapture and Tribulation will come and catch most people by surprise. Are you ready?

5. The Christian church at the time of the end would be lukewarm, neither cold nor hot for Jesus. Prophecy fulfilled. That's 5 out of 5.
Note: God will spew them out. Many ministers and people that call themselves a Christian will not be going to heaven. The Bible tells us—you have acquired wealth, but your true condition is wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked and you don't know it-Rev 3:14-22. This is today's church. Most preachers use little Scripture, but lots of worldly stories. Many sing a great deal, but put little emphasis on repentance, obeying, serving, and fearing God, on the fruits of the Spirit, Bible prophecy, water baptism by immersion, and studying your Bible faithfully every day. Many are only entertainment centers that teach what their members want to hear. Many (so-called Christians) are so lukewarm or dead, they don't even bring their Bibles with them to the house of God. Some famous ministers and Bible schools think this is the best church age ever, yet the Bible clearly shows it is the worst and most deceived.

...> 6.
The Bible gives us over 50 descriptions about the people at the time of the end. These fit the
people of today perfectly, but did not fit the people of fifty years ago. Here are some:

A.

Some would depart from the faith and go into devil worship-1 Tim 4:1. This is perfect.

B. People would mock about the last days and not believe-2 Pe 3:3; Jude 18.
C.

People would become lovers of themselves-2 Tim 3:1,2. Remember the TV commercials—" I do it for me"?

D. People would be disobeying their parents-2 Tim 3:1,2.

E. People would be grateful for nothing-2 Tim 3:1,2.
F. Homosexuality would increase-Lk 17:28,30; ref Gen 19:5; Ro 1:24,26,27.
G.

People would be without self-control in sex-2 Tim 3:1,2,6; Rev 9:21, Lk 17:28,30; Jude 7. Is this not the great sex generation?

H.

People would love pleasures more than God-2 Tim 3:1,2,4. This is true. Shall we go on a picnic, watch football, or sleep. Church?—we can go another time. Our American motto "In God we trust" has become a joke. Remember, these were all predicted centuries ago as part of the signs that we are at the time of the end.

I.

People would be taking drugs-Rev 9:21. The Greek word for sorceries, in Rev 9:21, means pharmaceuticals or drugs. God's Word is 100% right on every one. That's 6 out of 6. How could you have any doubts at this point?
Note: Fifty years ago, many people seldom locked their doors at night. There was little or no profanity on television, radio, or in the movies. One of the biggest problems in public school was gum chewing. Those days are long gone.

...>
7. There would be weapons that could destroy the world-Mk 13:20; Rev 6:8; Rev 9:18; Zech 14:8,12. Incredibly, this prophecy was written in the days of spears and arrows, yet today it is true. That's 7 out of 7.
Note: It is estimated that the combined nuclear arsenals of the USA and Russia (as of the year 2004) could kill every living thing on earth 6 times over.

8. The Gospel must be published in all the world-Mk 13:10. This seemingly impossible prophecy was written when there was no printing press, but today it is true. That's 8 out of 8.
Note: In this last generation, to our knowledge, the Gospel is being published (or is about to be published) in the primary language of every nation of the world or "among all nations." In addition, the Gospel is available by short-wave radio nearly everywhere in the world.

9. In the "latter days" when Israel was once again a nation, there would be a great military power to the extreme north of Israel in the land of Magog (which is modern-day Russia)-Ezek 38:2-4,8,15, 16. Incredible. That's 9 out of 9.
Note: How could the Bible have foretold the location of this nation, facts about its military, and even the time period it would come to pass? As was already said in Lk 24:25-O FOOLS, AND SLOW OF HEART TO BELIEVE ALL THAT THE PROPHETS HAVE SPOKEN.

10. There would be a nation to the far east of Israel, to the end of the earth. This nation would have an army of 200 million. This is astounding. How could the Bible have told the location of a nation and given such a huge figure regarding the size of its army nearly 2000 years ago? China has boasted that they could field an army of this exact figure. That's 10 out of 10.

11. There would be an economic alliance of the nations of the Old Roman Empire. It would have a military capability. This is an exact description of the European Economic Community today (the EEC), which has already adopted the one-currency system for many of their member nations. It is written, IN THE DAYS OF THESE KINGS (these nations, which is now) SHALL THE GOD OF HEAVEN SET UP A KINGDOM-Dan 2:44. That's 11 out of 11. We have just reached the point that seemed impossible—11 perfect predictions made thousands of years ago—with God nothing is impossible. Certainly, at this point, even the biggest skeptic should see the Bible is true, there is a God, and we are nearing the time of the end.

About 22 prophecies in 11 sets have been given, all perfect and all written centuries ago. The chance that any person could do this 2000 years into the future is not possible. The Bible is the Word of God, and we have just proved it. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. Repent and get baptized by full immersion. Read and obey the Gospel. God loves you. He is not willing that any should perish, yet many do. The Rapture is close. Most people are not ready and will not be taken. However, "YOU" cannot say you did not know. Know and understand, Mt 16:26-WHAT IS A MAN PROFITED, IF HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL? OR WHAT SHALL A MAN GIVE IN EXCHANGE FOR HIS SOUL? (Note: The Encyclopedia of Bible Prophecy has the complete list of 365 prophecies.)

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? THE RAPTURE AND TRIBULATION

RAPTURE (the Biblical term is "caught up" or "translation" ) is a term used to describe the removal from the earth of all living people that have been born-again as evidenced by their fruits. Just prior to the Tribulation coming about, the Rapture will take place. The number that will be raptured will be far fewer than most people might think. The Bible unmistakably portrays the raptured saints in heaven before the throne of God, prior to the Antichrist coming forth and the Tribulation beginning. The Scripture tells us, in the twinkling of an eye, we shall be changed and be with Jesus in the air. 1 Cor 15:51,52-WE SHALL NOT ALL SLEEP, BUT WE SHALL ALL BE CHANGED, IN A MOMENT IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE, AT THE LAST TRUMP: FOR THE TRUMPET SHALL SOUND; 1 Thes 4:16,17-AND THE DEAD IN CHRIST SHALL RISE FIRST, THEN WE WHICH ARE ALIVE AND REMAIN SHALL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS. We may be asleep, immediately we will be with Jesus. All the unbelievers, the
lukewarm Christians, and those that did not obey the Gospel will be left to face the dreadful Tribulation. (For an in-depth study of the Rapture, click here.)

THE TRIBULATION is the worst time in history since man has been on the earth. Immediately following the Rapture, the man of sin (called the Antichrist) comes forth and assumes control of the EEC. He can be expected to be very charismatic and brilliant. He confirms a treaty with Israel and others, which begins the Tribulation.

It is a 7 year period, but the Lord may have shortened the first 3 1/2 years in some way-ref Mk 13:20; Ro 9:28. We are not setting a date; however, we are now living in that generation in which this will happen. Hate, murder, thefts, rape, and every imaginable form of evil will abound. During this horrible period of God's wrath, Russia, Iran, and other nations will come against Israel. The USA becomes involved. One-fourth of the world's population will die. Many of the dead will be from the USA, as well as Russia. One-third of trees are burned up. All green grass is burned up. One-third of the sea will become blood. One-third of the creatures in the sea will die. One-third of the ships are destroyed. One-third of the waters become wormwood (or poisoned, or radioactive) . Massive famines, increased earthquakes, and more diseases will happen as birth pangs of a woman. Those left alive will have opportunities to receive Jesus through the preaching of 144,000 male, virgin Jews;
however, death by decapitation lies ahead for most that put their trust in Jesus, unless they renounce their faith. There will also be many false Christs and false prophets. A one-world, false religion that God calls MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH will increase. This religion has existed for hundreds of years and exists today. The nations of the world have become intoxicated with her false teachings. The temple in Jerusalem will be rebuilt.

About 3½ years from the end of the Tribulation, the Antichrist (also called the beast) is killed with a wound in the head by a weapon, but his deadly wound will be healed. He will come back to life. He then declares himself to be God and moves into the temple in Jerusalem. A false prophet appears that will do great wonders. The sacrifices at the temple will be stopped. The abomination of desolation occurs. An image of the Antichrist will be set on a wing of the temple. Those that refuse to worship it will be beheaded. The elect born-again Jews now flee for their lives to a place where God will hide them and take care of them during the last three and a half years. Power is given to the Antichrist over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. All that dwell on the earth shall worship the Antichrist, whose names are not written in the Lamb's book of life. During these last three and a half years (called the Great Tribulation) , world conditions will continue to worsen. A
one-world system will exist. The Antichrist shall make war against the saints and will overcome them. People will be required to take the mark of the Antichrist or the number of his name (666) in or on their forehead or right hand. If they, refuse they cannot buy or sell.

Two prophets of God will appear. One of them is Elijah. Their ministry lasts 1260 days. They warn people not to take the mark or worship the image. There is no forgiveness from God afterward for those that do. They will go to the eternal lake of fire. These two witnesses have the power to shut up heaven so that it does not rain. They have the power to bring all kinds of plagues on the earth. Multitudes will be slain for the Word of God. Some type of locusts will sting men with a sting like a scorpion. It will be so bad that men will seek death and shall not find it. There will be terrible sores upon men. The rivers and fountains will become blood. Men will be scorched with great heat. Earthquakes and diseases continue to get worse and worse. Two hundred million troops will march to Israel from the east and cross the dried up Euphrates River. One-third more of the earth's population will be killed. After the 1260 days, the two prophets of God will be killed. People will
rejoice, but then after three and a half days, they will arise and ascend up to heaven as others watch. Great fear falls on those that see this. Men will be so terrified that their hearts will fail, as they consider what is about to happen. Multitudes will hide in the rocks and say, "FALL ON US AND HIDE US FROM...HIM (Jesus)…FOR THE GREAT DAY OF HIS WRATH IS COME; AND WHO SHALL BE ABLE TO STAND?"-Rev 6:16,17.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION of those days, the Battle of Armageddon explodes. It lasts one day. The kings and armies of the earth are gathered to make war against Jesus. Jesus Christ returns as the King of kings and Lord of lords with all His saints. If He had not returned exactly when He did, there should be no life left on earth. The Antichrist and false prophet are cast alive into the lake of fire. Satan is chained for one thousand years, so he can deceive the nations no longer till the thousand years be fulfilled. Every force of nature is likely to be unleashed at once, including killer tornadoes, hurricanes, tidal waves, lightning encircling the earth, and the biggest earthquake in mankind's history. The cities and the mountains of the world will crumble. The Bible tells that every island fled away. The mountains were not found. There is great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of 70 to l00 pounds. The earth will move out of its place. At the end of
that one day, there are so few people left alive that a child could list them.

This may all sound like a fairy tale, but remember—from Israel's rebirth to the Tribulation, there are about 365 prophecies. Incredibly, nearly all have now been fulfilled. In addition, there are over 10,000 prophecies in the Bible and every one up to this time has come true without a single exception. THE FOOL HAS SAID IN HIS HEART THERE IS NO GOD-Ps 14:1.

ARE YOU READY TO MEET JESUS?

We have proven that the Bible is God's Word. Now you are faced with a decision. Will you ignore what you have learned, or will you surrender your life to Jesus? If you had a sudden heart attack or the Rapture came in the next five minutes, are you sure you are ready to meet God? You may say, "I believe I'm a good person. I sing in the choir. I attend church and give offerings." The Bible says all of your righteous deeds ARE AS FILTHY RAGS. You may be religious and go to church, but if you died right now—you would perish to hell. Why? Because you have not been born-again. You may say, "Well my church never preaches like this." Will you trust your religion or what the Bible says? If you choose not to accept God's way to enter heaven, then you are choosing eternal separation from God.

YOU MAY ASK, WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO? FOUR THINGS.

1. You must admit that you are a sinner. The Bible tells us, ALL HAVE SINNED AND COME SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD. THE WAGES OF SIN IS DEATH.
2. Be willing to change, to forsake all sin, to humble yourself and live for Jesus. Repent. Be willing to ask God for His help to make that change. The Bible tells us, EXCEPT YE REPENT, YE SHALL ALL LIKEWISE PERISH. WHOSOEVER THEREFORE WILL BE A FRIEND OF THE WORLD IS THE ENEMY OF GOD. Jesus tells us, HE THAT IS NOT WITH ME IS AGAINST ME.
3. Believe in your heart Jesus Christ is God's only begotten Son, God Who came to this earth in human form. Believe He died for your sins. It is written, THERE IS NONE OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN GIVEN AMONG MEN, WHEREBY WE MUST BE SAVED. If you are caught robbing a bank, you have to go to jail. Jesus never sinned. When He died on the cross, He did not die for the things He did. He died to pay your jail sentence.
4. Ask for forgiveness. Ask for God's mercy. By faith receive Jesus Christ as your only hope of salvation. Afterwards, be willing to get baptized by full immersion in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Nicodemus was considered a very religious man in the Bible; however, in Jn 3:3, Jesus shows him it is not enough. You MUST BE BORN AGAIN.

I am going to ask you to make that decision for Jesus right now. You need to humble yourself, repent and ask Jesus to be your Lord and Savior. Please kneel right where you are. Can you sense God calling you right now? Is your heart pounding? You may have been baptized or confirmed, but something inside you is saying, "Be sure." Perhaps you have strayed from God and need to rededicate your life to Jesus now. Would you rather go to be with God or the lake of fire? You have that choice right now. God wants you to receive the gift of eternal life. Are you sure there is not a sin, there is nothing that stands between you and God? But you may know there is. The Bible tells us THERE IS A WAY WHICH SEEMETH RIGHT UNTO A MAN, BUT THE END THEREOF ARE THE WAYS OF DEATH. Jesus wants you to KNOW HIM, to have a personal relationship with Him. It's not a matter of whether you think you know Jesus, but does Jesus know you?

Right now, kneel and pray this prayer out loud, and mean it with all your heart.

...> DEAR JESUS, I AM A SINNER. I BELIEVE YOU ARE THE SON OF GOD AND DIED FOR MY SINS ON THE CROSS. FORGIVE ALL OF MY SINS. JESUS, I REPENT. I ASK YOU TO HAVE MERCY ON ME, A SINNER, AND COME INTO MY LIFE. GIVE ME YOUR SPIRIT AND YOUR POWER. HELP ME TO FOLLOW AND OBEY YOUR COMMANDMENTS, AND TO LIVE FOR YOU. JESUS, I GIVE YOU MY LIFE. THANK YOU FOR HEARING MY PRAYER. THANK YOU FOR COMING INTO MY LIFE. I ASK IT IN THE NAME OF MY LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST. AMEN.

...>
IF YOU JUST SAID THAT PRAYER AND MEANT IT

We recommend you now read your Bible every day faithfully—5 or more chapters a day. Begin with the Gospel of John and read it through three times. Next go to Matthew and read the New Testament through three times. Then begin reading the entire Bible in order, beginning with Genesis. As God opens up His Word to you, obey it. Be a doer of the Word and not a hearer only, deceiving yourself-ref Ja 1:22. As you are faithful, God will open your understanding of His Word more and more.
Find a good Bible-teaching church that teaches God's Word, sound doctrine, Bible prophecy, the Revelation, not just stories about worldly things. They should also love and support Israel and the Jewish people. Attend often and get baptized. Tell others that Jesus is your only hope of salvation. If you've just said that prayer and committed your life to Jesus, please e-mail us and let us know. We would like to pray for you and send you some free literature. Please send your postal mailing address.

FINAL NOTE ON SALVATION

"After" we believe on Jesus Christ, "after" we have repented of our sins, we are commanded to be baptized by full immersion in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is written, HE THAT BELIEVETH AND IS BAPTIZED SHALL BE SAVED; BUT HE THAT BELIEVETH NOT SHALL BE DAMNED-Mk 16:16. Note, believing on Jesus comes "before" water baptism. Infant baptism or any baptism prior to repenting and believing on Jesus has no meaning. You cannot be baptized into One on Whom you do not believe. It is written, FOR AS MANY OF YOU AS HAVE BEEN BAPTIZED INTO CHRIST HAVE PUT ON CHRIST-Gal 3:27. Water baptism is by full immersion. As it is written, BURIED WITH HIM (with Jesus) IN BAPTISM (or buried in the water)-Col 2:12, ref Ro 6:4. Jesus commanded, GO YE THEREFORE, AND TEACH ALL NATIONS, BAPTIZING THEM IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, AND OF THE SON, AND OF THE HOLY GHOST: TEACHING THEM TO OBSERVE ALL THINGS WHATSOEVER I HAVE COMMANDED YOU: AND, LO, I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS,
EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD. AMEN-Mt 28:19,20.
Surrender means "you give up." You stop putting your will before God's will. You allow Jesus (God's Word) to reign over you. You submit to Jesus and let Him become the Lord of your life.
If you have not yet humbled yourself, and totally surrendered to Jesus, and become as a little child (ref Mt 18:3), and continued steadfast in the faith, I would suggest that NOW IS THE ACCEPTED TIME; BEHOLD, NOW IS THE DAY OF SALVATION-2 Cor 6:2. Please submit to God, say the prayer, and mean it with all of your heart. God loves YOU and cares.

I CALL HEAVEN AND EARTH TO RECORD THIS DAY AGAINST YOU, THAT I HAVE SET BEFORE YOU LIFE AND
DEATH, BLESSING AND CURSING: THEREFORE CHOOSE LIFE, THAT…THOU…MAY LIVE-Deut 30:19.

May God bless you.

My Testimony

Hello Everyone; I thought that I would give this testimony of how things had taken place in my very own life. Some of things has been left out of it. Some of these things You could read between the Lines and to know it in your own heart just as if You had been there taking it all in as one would often time do in these simliar things hurts, habits, and all of those hang - ups as a next person that had gone through it as well themselves.I had often times felt that I had already gone onto as people often times say to whom ever living as if we had already have been in world world 3. I'm only saying this because of me growing as a very small baby I had a Foster Mother in whom I loved so very much for such as I was literally told by her momma from an infant that she wasn't my true Mother that I had a real mother with many siblings living with her and I'd had better get used to it in my life and as in some people very much they had done all the things that any ones own parent could do for them from infancy until almost an adolecent. From the time that I was an only child never did I realize what those truths were until my parents had told Me that I am a foster child that they loved so dearly but they didn't like the way that My real Mother was rasing me and she had kept Me to raised in her undivided "Love" beside being raised where she had loving manner with shown Me just where Her Accountability mattered in her home. Now in my "Real Mother's " home it was so much of a vast differences in her home, and having bad motives and none action that wasn't alot of "Inconsistencies" had gotton Me to where violence and wreckless parents within the family unit and couldn't be myself in that inviroment that for sure was very unstable for my own personal growth. I had thought that those was my parent until one day some cold hard fact and truths came creaping out of my momma. She was stern and I knew what she meant and what she said was gospel.But she loved me just the same for being my foster momma to me. I watched her go through so many trials and heartache in her life and she cried and had been hurt by a husband whom had left us to be with another woman and her already made family. My momma did all those things that a parent could and wanted to do as a mother. She worked and I went to school like any other young child. Of course I acted up badly when I had lived with my precious momma, but I was sort of a mean kid whom had done alot of things that I ought not and should not have done. But the one or perhaps many things about her just made me feel like it was always home to me even til the day she passed away. (Years earlier). She loved me and showed me how to do things in a home, like most momma's do she gave me spankings but it wasn't nothing like my real mother would do. They were so very different as day is to night. My thoughts just never left my momma. You know being with the very brutal side of my real parent will never be forgotton because in the home it was world war 3. It was horrible that at times It just speaks to all of those horable things that had happened to me while living in that place of such high frequencies of motives and in - actions that only a person like me had gone through in a persons own life, of the horrors that went in that place. I later in years found out the real reasons all of those mean actions of the way she was to me and ways she had done alot of things which makes a person like I was so bitterly confused, beaten, raped, and almost killed not only by my real mother but her husband too. I'll never forget what it done to my own soul is like living in hell with fire torching me all of the time, day and night was never a miss.Bu they cursed at me telling me that I was No good and I wasn't going to amount to anything and more cursing came at me like it rolled like a thunder storm in every breath they had taken and couldn't even ask why,I couldn't share my thoughts with them because sure enough I would get it again. They had their parties that lasted into the wee hours in the mornings every weekend with things in the home got broken simly because it would be broken up , fighting, cursing at each other, the windows of the car got broken by a brick being thrown from mother's hand because of those things he had done to her. I knew that I was in hot water again, just because she would run off from being mad at him. I hated those times because I knew what I was in for every time that would happen. Some of my own family member was just like him and did those simliar thing to me.Only 2 of my siblings made so many efforts for me to live with them but to No avil. Everytime I'd get something nice for those holidays it would get ripped into pieces while the other kids got to keep what they had. After a while I really didn't care about anything anymore! They taught me to be just like them and I lost myself ! I just didn't know me anymore.Her hubby used to call me out to his garage filled his brown "Dr. Peppers" glass with his favorite pop as I watched him pour his drink mixed with alcohol, i'm not going to say anything more about that horrible person in that kind of manner. A few of his own family members was just the same. Some of them as well did thing's in like manner for they are sibling that was older than I . I got so tired of those things and after awhile I was like being under a very heavy doeses of anesthesia that I never came out of from being in that place. Everything I had been taught was lost to never return in such a very ugly inside of myself had been ripped apart destroying anything of which I had known about me was gone and I ws No longer there! I left that place and right out in the streets and never looked back at that place again for many of years.I was someone like in Germany that has shared with me simliar virtures that had taken on in my own life from the very start of my street worth had been like in what my husband has shared with me about those brothels that's lined up for many a blocks. It's all I knew how to do and run with the seedy people whom was just like me and thugs,mobsters, thieves. I got caught up with people that most people didn't want to cross over if they wanted to stay alive for the most part, or if they owed a favor yet in turn it wasn't good either.Well drugs, alcohol, kept me up and down for most of those years. I had so many problems that it never gave me a clue. Emotions was high going from one place to another even with scooter people whom I'd hung out at all of those places. For the most part they helped me along my years, then I'd back away and find me another crowd to hang out with, it didn't matter how rich you might of been at the end of those nights I was a shallow of a person whom was there for a time at your expense. Oh, I've have had relationships and marriages even children came out of some. I never thought I'd stop in living like the way I was. It never entered my mind at all, nor would anyone would bring up in helping "self" to see something different in how to stop and detour my life.Oh at times I went back and had seen my momma and she always loved me just like it never ever stopped. I hid alot of things from her that never enterered in our conversations simply I didn't want her to know and thought that she would tell me to leave and never come back to her home again so I kept quiet about it at those times I had been visiting Mom,except to be a good girl.I had lost one child in what had happend in the way I lived my life and some of them from the x's and people whom had tons of money whom ruled the world with an iron fists and towns of which we lived. I couldn't fight it and I lost something that was so precious to me. It had me even tighter and I never knew what to do. But stick my thumb out and hit the trails onward I went back to the home town of which I was born and as it had taken a while while I had been on the road which was full of dangers into the next day . Some of the time that it was fun but today looking back it was the darkest days in my own life. All of those dark nights that was lit from 24 hours lasted more than hours but weeks at a time. I never never ever said that he ever was a person of a father figure to me but as a sperm donor for my mother[Real] is all he had been to me but my real mother life whom loved him and of course had more children between them. So that pretty much how it was back then for me. Until one night and being seperated once again, I had went to someones home and relaxed like I always did with people I knew very well. That night was just a peek of what terrible things that had taken place in my world. And this what some people likes to do to "young ladies or women"I was literally thrown into a car and they had taken me to an abandon house and beat the daylights out of me and raped me and tried to kill me that horrible night that lasted till early morning.For some reason I said a get me out of here prayers, I then saw something liked I'd never ever seen before in my entire life and I've never forgot it till this day. It was a figure liked I've never seen before but the funny part about it it was missing a face while it was there! Oh it white and hands like a real person has on one glossy set of hands and you could see right through it. And a golden crown . Now, that amazed me like never before! Then I saw this figure waving those hands to come this way but it stumped me because I didn't know where those men were in the house. I looked around to see where they were in that place. I wiped away the blood on my face so I could see some what better. As I looked again that person or thing was still waving at me to come unto them. I was frightened and didn't know what to expect! So I just got off that floor and headed out the window and that things or person that I had seen just felt like it guided me to where safety and as they led me then what I then seen was a huge drop to hit the ground. As I did my ankel twisted and I somehow got back straight and ran until I found some help in a apt. building and ran inside. I knocked on door and a another man came to the door and I at once covered myself up and passed out on the floor. Just as You already know where I woke up at and to see just the very fact I was ALIVE! I had lost the court case and to my suprise from what I had found out they did it again to someone much younger than me. That was 2 weeks later after the courts. I went into treatment and left that town simply because my hubby didn't like the fact that I been done by the other race. Man I was so bitterly angry at men so I had turn into a homosexual for a time and when I was in my stupor while drinking I had come to realize what the heck I was doing in a relationship with this woman and I went through tons of help back then and under a shrink for so many years, It was hard but I kept it up after it so I could do what was told to me so I could get better. I went through secular programs and I did so much better and even had a child come back to me, then another one which was a suprise. Even tried to always make things work and had all of those emotions sticking out so very badly. It got so bad that my old self came back to me and I literally stabbed someone . Oh, it finally hit me after one of my very heavy drunks that I really needed some help . I went cold turkey and got off those meds that nearly killed me during that time. Later I moved to another place and tried to do things a little differently. I had my scooter buddies that I had met but this time they we not like those in times past. They began to share me about a man called Jesus in which I had only heard about as a child and never believed! But they shared with me that whole weekend and I found a pastor in that town and began searching for more answers to all of my un - answered questions that they had helped me with in my life. They had a quaint little place which was half restaurant, and church. But I got saved in August 18, 1997. I had met someone and then married him as he had other people round him that I didn't know very well and he had this person move in with us and quite frankly really didn't want him there but between the two to my much suprise another person around whom had made drugs and was selling them I had found about when I saw neddles laying around in different places and I left at the pastors request and on my way out of town he nearly ran me over with his semi-truck in that pouring rain storm but than God and I made it to where I was going. I found my self heading to a hospital early the next morning at my best friends advice. She went to school and if I hadn't been home she knew where to come find me. As it turned out I had died and came back and I knew it was the Lord, My savior whom brought me back. There's more to this story that just blows my mind to this day simply because of that happeneing to me this very day. Oh, Yes I had to re-learn everything over again, just as if I was a very sm. child. I had some long talks with the Lord and cried many tears unto Him only to see for my self that those where trials from Him to see if I ment it or wanted to turn back to the old me.But I didn't thank You Jesus! I kept hanging on like i've never ever did in my life. Some of those people were not nice people at all, they was crude and very abnoxious in all those hateful words and cussing at me, walking all over me just as if I hadn't been standing still. But my precious Jesus and I kept praying and communicating with one another and I went to church and they helped me too. But the cold hard facts is Jesus Christ whom got me through it until this very day. I had sugery this year on memorial day weekend over the stuff that happened to me back then. But You know what ? He always told me that he would never ever forskake me.I know and truly believe it with all my heart today.He is still helping me to learn all the more about Him ... I'm so very thankful unto my precious Jesus for showing me His ways for me to live in and all my cares goes unto Him today.Every time I go though His fires of His many test. One more time he molding me more unto Him to be just as he in the likeness in doing my best in leaving more of me in this old very horrible nasty old world.I left my sins where it all needs to be in His glorious righteousness and it is where it absolutley stays for me and being in the one whom is the almighty God. Now I'm doing my best in Him in leaving old teaching of those religious people behind in still having our close relationship in Him together as I want it more and more in my life forever more til he takes us home to be in that new Jerusalem. I just don't like be a person in what God calls a "stiff necked person" which is incorruptable in front of him. I know that he's destroyed alot of the old me.I know that I still get mixed up at times but He's helping me through it all! Today I get tired so easily and have to rest when my body tells me too My mind often times acts like the "lost child". But that's ok because when I get up... I am with Jesus and helping others the best that I can, My husband and I have opened our home to people whom are in this world today. But after they get through asking questions about our faith, they stop right in those tracks and try to not do what they themselves need to do and try to much and be like the devil himself ! Then we share with each and every one that they need some help at first to get out of those damned up emotions, then try Jesus as they go through it all but they refuse all things and out the door they go. Then the next one apprears and it never has stopped here in our home. We keep sharing the word with them one after another.We too, live on a fixed income that don't help any at all except for the medical. food is very low here at our home, we go to the food pantries, and often times to one family member to have them give us a meal or two. But then we help people out in a church when I can help in sacking up food in bags, and clothing pantries as well. That's how our life is for us as we depend on our heavenly Father And He alway's takes care of us,He's shown us both different kinds of ways that only Him can do in taking care of us, we've seen how the Lord bring us money to pay these bills, and car, and food unto us and protects us through these storms that comes through out town. I can never say enough about our Jesus! At least not so much in words to Him Jesus Christ whom I love very deeply inside of myself and is my King, my Lover , whom rules and judges me when it comes to my own final curtain call for me to Bow down at His feet awaiting my own judgement just as everyone else in this earth it is where it's between he and I only. We truly trust Him[Jesus Christ & the Trinity] in every kind of conditions,situations, trials that comes our way in being in him.I'll lways grow as in time and seasons just like many of You but the potter's wheel as He is going forth in every side that brings up such strong reasons to produce all of my causes, issues,that comes before Himself to represents me in all of my ways as an intercessor for the release to come forth in His own "power & authority in taking me unto His own character daily in being in obedience unto Jesus Christ that continues to draw me until He comes for everyone at a moments notice. The idols are gone and all is left is JESUS today.That my sisters & brothers is the way it is here. I know I didn't mentioned alot of other things but in general You get the message, others that whom truly knows me daily know all of those missing parts of my life. i_a,godschild would like to Thank You for allow in this site,group sites, web sites and other prayer sites as well in holding one another up for prayer's being totally united in everyone around this world, it's about Jesus Christ first and prayers,intecessory prayer's and at other times about this vast world we live in today which this old world as we all know it is slowly departing to be reaching our home in glory and Not missing love ever again and may I alway's growing unto my precious Jesus Christ for He's my lawyer, judge unto this world ends. I will alway's praying and sharing with him in my own heart for everyone in my lif No matter where each of You are in this world that God has made as His people whom stands firm and true without a spot or a wringkle in heading to that one final place called: A New Jerusalem" The Prayer that I had used to bring me out of which I had been in for so very long in my own personal life and may it help anyone whom is out in this world that has come of those simliar things as I had done. Hello Everyone; I thought that I would give this testimony of how things had taken place in my very own life. Some of things has been left out of it. Some of these things You could read between the Lines and to know it in your own heart just as if You had been there taking it all in as one would often time do in these simliar things hurts, habits, and all of those hang - ups as a next person that had gone through it as well themselves.I had often times felt that I had already gone onto as people often times say to whom ever living as if we had already have been in world world 3. I'm only saying this because of me growing as a very small baby I had loved so very much for such as Iand as in some people very much they had done all the things that any ones own parent could do for them from infantcy until almost an adolecent. From the time that I was an only child never did I realize what those truths were until my parents had told Me that I am a foster child that they loved so dearly but they didn't like the way that My real Mother was rasing me and she had kept Me to raised in her undivided "Love" beside being raised where she had loving manner with shown Me just where Her Accountability mattered in her homeand not having bad motives and none action that wasn't been alot of "Inconsistencies" had gotton Me to where violence and wreckless parents within the family unit and couldn't be myself in that inviroment is unstable for your growth. I had thought that those was my parent until one day some cold hard fact and truths came creaping out of my momma. She was stern and i knew what she meant and what she said was gospel.But she loved me just the same for being a foster momma to me. I watched her go through so many trials and heartache in her life and she cried and had been hurt by a husband whom had left us to be with another woman and her already made family. My momma did all those things that a parent could and wanted to do as a mother. She worked and I went to school like any other young child. Of course I acted up badly when I had lived with my precious momma, but I was sort of a mean kid whom had done alot of things that I ought not and should not have done. But the one or perhaps many things about her just made me feel like it was always home to me even til the day she passed away. (Years later). She loved me and showed me how to do things in a home, like most momma's do she gave me spankings but it wasn't nothing like my real mother would do. They were so very different as day is to night. My thoughts just never left my momma. You know being with the very brutal side of my real parent will never be forgotton because in the home it was world war 3.It was horrible that at times I just speak of the horrors that went in that place.I later in years found out the real reasons all of those means and ways she had done alot of things which makes a person like I was so bitterly confused, beaten, raped, and almost killed not only by my real mother but her husband too. I'll never forget what it done to my own soul is like living in hell with fire torching me all of the time, day and night was never a miss.They had thier parties that lasted into the wee hours in the mornings every weekend I knew i was in hot water again, just because she would run off from being mad at him.
