The IMMEDIATE future

 

Genesis 26:19

King James Version

19 And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, 

and found there a well of springing water.


NEARLY six years ago, I started on a soul's adventure.

Wherein I intended to find out about GOD, self, and others.

I had no idea the LORD would reveal so much more.

All because I needed to look into self first.

And be authentic.

Here's the compressed journey, and findings, starting 2018.

Starting with the FIRST blog, "Archaeologist of the Soul":


24 November 2018

"EXCAVATOR of the SOUL"

I'm a modern-day archaeologist of the soul, an excavator, a soul-digger.


You will know why you do what you do, why others are the way they are, who God is, and everything that matters in this world.


Expect to go really deep into your heart, into the bone, and marrow of your being.


This blog is only for those who can laugh at themselves and their own quirks, for you will need a HUGE dose of mirth and humility. 


Hop right in and prepare for a wonderful adventure.


It takes courage to know self.


Are you prepared to know God and self, this time around? 


11 November 2021

"PLUMBING the DEPTHS of our SOUL"

Why Bible prophecy?

Why America?

We were truly digging deeper.

So deep, GOD made me born again.

The same day after watching the two videos.


In life, you merely LOVE.

And all things become clear.

The heart speaks to the heart.


I have to continue my walk with SPIRIT.

I have to continue following the LORD.

I have to carry that cross each day.

I have my family to think about.

I have GOD to serve.

I have you to think about.

I have to continue writing.

I was given a task.


We must keep going.

GOD's will be done, in us.

Let us comfort one another.


Suffering has rent my heart open.

But GOD has always wanted an open heart.


GOD will make me whole again.

For I've reached rock bottom.


----------------------


Well, I "unearthed" much along the way.

With the HOLY SPIRIT leading the way.

Opening many spiritual doors for me.

These links tell you more:

GOD's TRUTH

SIMPLE TRUTHS

The IMPORTANT articles

GOD's GLORY blogs

BORN AGAIN classics


Then, out of the blue, GOD led me to "politics".

America was going to have her 2024 elections.

As if everything, from then, till now, hinged upon that.

And I truly believed, and felt, it did.

So, I sought to find out, according to Scripture.

For by 2019, GOD had made me born again.

The search took on a deeper note, and tone.

Here are excerpts of our notes, questions, and discoveries regarding American elections, and even the world's future.


-----------------------


22 July 2024

"On U.S. politics"

And what of Donald Trump?

Would GOD allow him another term as president?

Does he really love Israel?

Does he really love JESUS?

Is he being supported by the right Christians?

Perhaps, he will do better this time.

Knowing he must leave a legacy.


20 August 2024

"AMERICA in DANGER"

Five years ago, GOD made me born again.

He alerted me to the danger America is in.

Wherein she is RIPE for JUDGMENT.

She's in even greater danger now.

There will be a forthcoming U.S. elections.

Only two people to choose from.

The former president Trump.

And the aspiring candidate Harris.

One, a man.

The other, a woman.

One, trying to be godly.

The other, totally ungodly.

One, possibly offering better hope.

The other, offering absolute disaster.


27 September 2024

"IMPERMANENCE of policies"

Policies come, policies go.

As it has been, so it shall continue.

All subject to the whims and winds of man, and war.

Is the world improving?

You tell me.


But there's one thing that will never change.

We all die.

We cannot expect our policies to be the same.

People who take our place may have different agendas.

Unless we be of the same GOD SPIRIT, we cannot produce anything of real value.


Our lives are in GOD's hands.

He gave us His spirit.

Genesis 2:7

King James Version

7 And the Lord God formed man 

of the dust of the ground, 

and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; 

and man became a living soul.


We must not produce "dynasties", "cronies", or "clones".

Only believers live "forever", through CHRIST.

Who promised us eternal life.


If you are a leader, whether of a family, a business, a community, an organization, or a nation, it's best you be of GOD.

Delight in the LORD.

And yet be fearful of Him.

For His policies live forever.

We are as nothing compared to His power.


5 October 2024

"The ONLY election that MATTERS"

The SUCCESS of any elected leader relies on the following:

If they have a love for GOD, or not.

If they believe in JESUS, or not.

If they are guided by SPIRIT, or not.

If they have a love for Israel, or not.

If they are born again, or not.


9 October 2024

"The FORGOTTEN principles"

That basic principle is common-sense.

In any person, in any family, in any organization, in any nation.

Satan feeds upon your ego, lust, pride, vanity, and greed.

Weakening your heart, mind, body, soul, spirit, and "home".

And then he goes in for the "kill".

Taking everyone with him.

Oh, how the game is played too often!

And yet, man never learns.


As watchman and workman for GOD, I am here to watch, warn, write, wait, and worship.

That's why we have all these blogs and books.

Which SPIRIT inspired me to write starting five years ago.

That we may warn, and wake you up.

Friends, we are hit on ALL fronts.

Whether believer, or unbeliever.

We need to know GOD's laws.


We either rise, or fall, when we follow, or don't follow, GOD's commands.


The Bible, especially the Old Testament, is filled with GOD's wrath, and judgment.

For unbelieving, unfaithful, idolatrous, adulterous, war-like, vain, greedy people.

Whether they be His chosen nation, Israel, or the enemies of Israel.

We are all under judgment if we disobey GOD's laws.

ESPECIALLY if we hurt the "apple" of His eye.


There is nothing new about man's ways.

Or his methods.

Especially if he wants to acquire something.

Or wants something destroyed.

As king Solomon said:

Ecclesiastes 1:9

King James Version

9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; 

and that which is done is that which shall be done: 

and there is no new thing under the sun.


Titles come, titles go.

Wealth comes, wealth goes.

Power comes, power goes.

But what will not go, is GOD.

Neither will His laws.

If we are to survive this world, it's best we turn to GOD.

Not tomorrow, but today, right this moment.

Forget about knowing anything.

Become a new person in CHRIST.

2 Corinthians 5:17

King James Version

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, 

he is a new creature: 

old things are passed away; 

behold, all things are become new.


Walk with GOD's SPIRIT, and you shall not be taken aback.

By any event which will happen today, or tomorrow.

For SPIRIT has mapped out man's character.

He has mapped out man's heart.

He has mapped out our future.

And it's all in Scripture.


Further, PEACE can ONLY come THROUGH JESUS.

But how many believe in the LORD JESUS?

How many follow His commands?

How many truly love Him?

JESUS is where we all begin.

And where we all end.

Romans 10:4

King James Version

4 For Christ is the end of the law 

for righteousness 

to every one that believeth.


20 October 2024

"Why you MUST turn to JESUS now!"

We have no idea the real battle.

It's a battle for our souls.

Be not of a proud heart.

Be not of a willful spirit.

Be not confident in your own abilities.

Be not deluded into thinking you are invincible.

At any given moment, GOD could cut that pride of yours.


31 October 2024

"PRAYING for AMERICA"

I have a very strange connection with America.

When GOD made me born again in 2019, right away He led me to Bible prophecy, specifically on America.

On how she is a nation "begging for destruction".

A nation calling for GOD's judgment.


GOD wants America saved.

She is the only country that once cared for Israel.

Even as this administration doesn't.

But the previous administration did.

Only GOD will decide the future of America.


America's destiny is tied up with Israel.

In fact, all our nations' futures are tied up with Israel.

How we treat her is how GOD will treat us.

Genesis 12:3

King James Version

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, 

and curse him that curseth thee:

 and in thee shall all families of the earth 

be blessed.


How we treat GOD is also how He will treat us.

Psalm 145:19-20

King James Version

19 He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: 

he also will hear their cry, and will save them.

20 The Lord preserveth all them that love him: 

but all the wicked will he destroy.


The future of people and government lies with GOD.

Only GOD has power over everything.

We need to pray to GOD for these things:

To live right.

To think right.

To speak right.

To do right.

To be right.

All according to His laws.


Only by being born again can you begin to understand.

For SPIRIT and Scripture will teach you about JESUS.

JESUS taught us the LORD's commands.

He gave His life for us.

You will begin to understand the world's ways, versus GOD's ways.

You will be guided every step of the way.

Decision-making, on any matter, will be easy.


Both Jew and Gentile, are loved by GOD.

We must turn away from our wicked ways.

We must find our path back to GOD.

Through JESUS.

John 14:6

King James Version

6 Jesus saith unto him, 

I am the way, the truth, and the life: 

no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.


8 November 2024

"An AMERICAN connection"

Today, the HOLY SPIRIT took me back into time.

All because I remembered my past work for America.


Seems America keeps "calling" to me.

The call came ever stronger before this 2024 elections.

Wherein I found myself writing about the state America is in.

The time was right, the moment was here, SPIRIT called me to it.

Before you know it, I found myself writing about the elections.


GOD gave me "Trump" four days ago.

He gave a verse specifically for the former president.

Which turned out to be prophetic.


I'd like to see what GOD wants me to discover.

And whatever He wants me to share with you.

Whether you're American, or not.

I just know it will be "substantial".

It will affect you.

And interest you.

No matter which part of the world you're in.


8 November 2024

"37 years ago"

It's like I'm a "witness" to most things.

And yet, their route didn't interest me.

That was also the time when a lot was happening in my country, and in the U.S.

I was in it, and yet "not" in it.


Everything always serves GOD's purpose.

He "positioned" me, EXACTLY where I needed to be.

Every single time, and moment.

Today, I realize the "American connection" got deeper in 2019.

Where "everything" really began for me.


9 November 2024

"The AMERICAN elections"

Kamala's policies anger the GREAT GOD.

I didn't believe GOD would allow her to bring America to further ruin.

The Biden administration was close to ruining America.

I can almost feel it was just a "matter of time", and America would fall.


Kamala was doomed to fail, right from the start.


Her ways, and policies, made me cringe.

And they made me write.

As if it was a race against time.

That I had to warn people as fast as I can about her, and the Democrats.


There was something sinister going on, and it had to stop.


Oh, how little she knows about GOD's laws regarding Israel.

Any thinking person could see the difference.


10 November 2024

"TRUMP and KAMALA"

Without SPIRIT, I'd be clueless.


10 November 2024

"TRUMP and VANCE"

Being much younger, Vance is being groomed to carry Trump's "MAGA" (Make America Great Again) mantle.

As their rallies show, both men respect each other.

Vance always deferring to Trump.

Both are true assets to each other.

If both continue honoring GOD, there's no reason why they can't succeed in any endeavor.


This is Trump's time now.

There's no stopping America's desire to heal, and get up again.

With Vance by his side, it's a win situation.

No matter the continuing sour graping around them.

GOD's will be done.


----------------------


We enter into a NEW era now.

GOD is done with the Democrats.

They had their chance, and they brazenly "blew" it.

GOD would have no more of that nonsense.

People have suffered enough.

That's why He is allowing Republican Trump's "common sense" program now.

VICTORY was achieved, only THROUGH GOD's POWER:

Psalm 44:3

King James Version

3 For they got not the land in possession 

by their own sword, neither 

did their own arm save them: 

but thy right hand, 

and thine arm, 

and the light of thy countenance, 

because thou hadst a favour unto them.


That's what America, and the world needs.

A return to GOD, truth, and justice.

We are all under GRACE now.

A "reprieve", if you want to call it that.

Even a "respite".

A time to "breathe".

A time to "regroup".

But it will be a quick respite.

Before the TRUE battle begins.

From which, there will be no turning back.

Who you give your allegiance to, indicates your future.

Time to position ourselves, probably for the LAST time.

At least, before the RAPTURE occurs.

It's really all PREPARATION now.


What we do with this GRACE, and opportunity, spells our personal future.

And all our combined future.

What's your stand on Israel?

Ah, that's very telling.


As of this writing, there is still 71 days before Trump sits at office.

From now, till then, a lot can still happen.

Trump's enemies will still want to keep him out of the White House.

We need to pray even harder that Trump and his team remain with CHRIST.

That was their strength.

It can also be their weakness, if they get distracted.

The outcome has always been consistent, and foretold.

The battle can only be won BY, and THROUGH the LORD JESUS CHRIST.

1 Corinthians 15:57

King James Version

57 But thanks be to God, 

which giveth us the victory 

through our Lord Jesus Christ.


Will the Rapture happen BEFORE Trump gets to the White House?

Or will it happen after?

Only GOD knows.

Mark 13:32-37

King James Version

32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, 

no, not the angels which are in heaven, 

neither the Son, 

but the Father.

33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: 

for ye know not when the time is.

34 For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, 

who left his house, 

and gave authority to his servants, 

and to every man his work, 

and commanded the porter to watch.

35 Watch ye therefore: 

for ye know not 

when the master of the house cometh, 

at even, 

or at midnight, 

or at the cockcrowing, 

or in the morning:

36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, 

Watch.

The THREE Nazarites

 Exodus 32:29

King James Version

29 For Moses had said, 

Consecrate yourselves today to the Lord, 

even every man upon his son, 

and upon his brother; 

that he may bestow upon you 

a blessing this day.


The Old Testament spoke of THREE Nazarites.

Each with his own power.

Each with his own task.

Each chosen, for GOD's purpose.

What is a "Nazarite"?

What are his traits?

What is he tasked with?


JESUS was a "Nazarene", but He was not a "Nazarite".

Matthew 2:23

King James Version

23 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.


The LORD was a "pattern" all His own.

The Nazarites were meant to serve the HOLY Nazarene.

For purposes of this post, we shall look into the "Nazarite".

SPIRIT and Scripture will teach us what a "Nazarite" is.

Through verses describing THREE such Nazarites.

Here's a brief description of their beginnings.

And the circumstances of their birth.

As well as GOD's purpose for them:


On SAMSON:

Judges 13:1-14

King James Version

13 And the children of Israel did evil again 

in the sight of the Lord; 

and the Lord delivered them 

into the hand of the Philistines forty years.

2 And there was a certain man of Zorah, 

of the family of the Danites

whose name was Manoah; 

and his wife was barren, and bare not.

3 And the angel of the Lord 

appeared unto the woman, 

and said unto her, 

Behold now, 

thou art barren, and bearest not: 

but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.

4 Now therefore beware, 

I pray thee, 

and drink not wine nor strong drink, 

and eat not any unclean thing:

5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; 

and no razor shall come on his head: 

for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God 

from the womb: 

and he shall begin to deliver Israel 

out of the hand of the Philistines.

6 Then the woman came and told her husband, 

saying, 

A man of God came unto me, 

and his countenance was like the countenance 

of an angel of God, very terrible: 

but I asked him not whence he was, 

neither told he me his name:

7 But he said unto me, 

Behold, 

thou shalt conceive, 

and bear a son; 

and now drink no wine nor strong drink, 

neither eat any unclean thing: 

for the child shall be a Nazarite to God 

from the womb to the day of his death.

8 Then Manoah intreated the Lord, and said, 

O my Lord, 

let the man of God which thou didst send 

come again unto us, 

and teach us what we shall do 

unto the child that shall be born.

9 And God hearkened to the voice of Manoah; 

and the angel of God came again unto the woman 

as she sat in the field: 

but Manoah her husband was not with her.

10 And the woman made haste, and ran, 

and shewed her husband, and said unto him, 

Behold, the man hath appeared unto me, 

that came unto me the other day.

11 And Manoah arose, and went after his wife, 

and came to the man, and said unto him, 

Art thou the man that spakest unto the woman? 

And he said, I am.

12 And Manoah said, 

Now let thy words come to pass. 

How shall we order the child, 

and how shall we do unto him?

13 And the angel of the Lord said unto Manoah, 

Of all that I said unto the woman let her beware.

14 She may not eat of any thing that cometh of the vine, 

neither let her drink wine or strong drink, 

nor eat any unclean thing: 

all that I commanded her let her observe.


On SAMUEL:

1 Samuel 1:1-11

King James Version

1 Now there was a certain man of Ramathaimzophim, 

of mount Ephraim, 

and his name was Elkanah, 

the son of Jeroham, 

the son of Elihu, 

the son of Tohu, 

the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite:

2 And he had two wives; 

the name of the one was Hannah, 

and the name of the other Peninnah: 

and Peninnah had children, 

but Hannah had no children.

3 And this man went up out of his city yearly 

to worship and to sacrifice 

unto the Lord of hosts in Shiloh. 

And the two sons of Eli, 

Hophni and Phinehas, 

the priests of the Lord, were there.

4 And when the time was that Elkanah offered, 

he gave to Peninnah his wife, 

and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:

5 But unto Hannah he gave a worthy portion; 

for he loved Hannah: 

but the Lord had shut up her womb.

6 And her adversary also provoked her sore, 

for to make her fret, 

because the Lord had shut up her womb.

7 And as he did so year by year, 

when she went up to the house of the Lord, 

so she provoked her; 

therefore she wept, and did not eat.

8 Then said Elkanah her husband to her, 

Hannah, why weepest thou? 

and why eatest thou not? 

and why is thy heart grieved? 

am not I better to thee than ten sons?

9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, 

and after they had drunk. 

Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat 

by a post of the temple of the Lord.

10 And she was in bitterness of soul, 

and prayed unto the Lord, and wept sore.

11 And she vowed a vow, and said, 

O Lord of hosts, 

if thou wilt indeed look 

on the affliction of thine handmaid, 

and remember me, 

and not forget thine handmaid, 

but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, 

then I will give him unto the Lord 

all the days of his life, 

and there shall no razor come 

upon his head.


On JOHN the BAPTIST:

Luke 1:5-17

King James Version

5 There was in the days of Herod,

the king of Judaea, 

a certain priest named Zacharias, 

of the course of Abia: 

and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron

and her name was Elisabeth.

6 And they were both righteous before God, 

walking in all the commandments 

and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

7 And they had no child, 

because that Elisabeth was barren, 

and they both were now well stricken in years.

8 And it came to pass, 

that while he executed the priest's office before God 

in the order of his course,

9 According to the custom of the priest's office, 

his lot was to burn incense 

when he went into the temple of the Lord.

10 And the whole multitude of the people

were praying without at the time of incense.

11 And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord 

standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

12 And when Zacharias saw him, 

he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.

13 But the angel said unto him, 

Fear not, Zacharias: 

for thy prayer is heard; 

and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, 

and thou shalt call his name John.

14 And thou shalt have joy and gladness; 

and many shall rejoice at his birth.

15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, 

and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; 

and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, 

even from his mother's womb.

16 And many of the children of Israel 

shall he turn to the Lord their God.

17 And he shall go before him 

in the spirit and power of Elias, 

to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, 

and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; 

to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.


Noticed anything?

Especially about their mothers?

They were all "barren".

Unable to have a child.

Much less, a son.

But GOD took mercy upon them.

And gave them the child they so dearly desired.

Through an announcement from TWO angels of the LORD.

And one priest, who overheard the mother's prayer.


GOD gifted them with sons.

One strong man, and the other two, prophets.

Which were all meant to serve Him.

These sons were born for a purpose.

But first, the distinct traits of a Nazarite.

Even of the mothers chosen:

Judges 13:3-5

King James Version

3 And the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman, and said unto her, Behold now, thou art barren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceive, and bear a son.

4 Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing:

5 For, lo, thou shalt conceive, and bear a son; and no razor shall come on his head: for the child shall be a Nazarite unto God from the womb: and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.


1 Samuel 1:11

King James Version

11 And she vowed a vow, and said, O Lord of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the Lord all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.


Luke 1:15

King James Version

15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.


No wine, or strong drink.

No food from an unclean thing.

No razor shall pass upon the head.

Filled with the "Holy Ghost".

Consecrated for GOD's purpose -- from the womb, to death.

Those were the traits GOD instituted upon a "Nazarite".


Whom GOD takes mercy upon, He gifts with a son.

Whom GOD has a purpose for, He lays down the rules.

Whom GOD appoints to save Israel, He chooses, and prepares.

Such are the THREE Nazarites.

Samson, Samuel, and John the Baptist.

Anointed by GOD, for His perfect purpose.

With important tasks to fulfill, for the prophesied MESSIAH.

Consecrated to GOD, for His magnificent purpose.

All meant for holiness.

FIFTH year as BORN AGAIN

 

Proverbs 16:16

King James Version

16 How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! 

and to get understanding 

rather to be chosen than silver!


I myself can't believe it.

I've been born again, FIVE years now?

At least 1,825 days today.

Wow, as I would say, "Stupendous!"

All because GOD made me born again.

Saving me, from myself.


If I am to count my ancient years, I shall count it as kid years.

For the only thing that matters is how long I've been born again.

It's been FIVE, beautiful years.

Of non-stop praying, listening, studying, writing, and sharing.

Every single day.


Having a delighted devotion to the WORD of GOD.

Childlike pride at GOD's magnificence.

Awed respect for JESUS.

Searching Scripture each day, like a Berean.

Praying to JESUS, for any questions I may have.

Waiting for His SPIRIT to direct me to the right verse.

Offering our articles for GOD's GLORY all the time.

We've got 107 blogs to show for it now.

And yet a 108th hovers.


I lasted this long.

And I shall last for as long GOD deems it.

My years are in His hands.

My work was predestined.

He allowed my errors, for His purpose.

But saved me right on time.

As the world was to see many troubles.

Brewing in 2019, and hasn't stopped since.


People partied end of 2019.

GOD made me write instead.

We started our fiction books in November.

We worked on 22 spiritual warfare books in 36 days.

Then He made me write another two on JESUS in 2020.

You can find all those on my Amazon page.

He kept me busy studying, and sharing.

There was one day in 2020 I got cocky.

Thinking I had written enough.

Wanting to ease up writing.


He would have none of that foolishness.

On the very same day, He cut the wi-fi connection.

Through a neighbor's contractor.

Who "accidentally" cut our telephone line.

And didn't work on having it re-connected.

No matter my appeals.


It was laborious getting back "on-line".

I had to go to another neighbor to report the matter.

Those were the covid days of difficulties.

It took another two days to get back to work.

Merely shows, I must not get slack in my work for GOD.

People are "perishing", what was I doing, thinking I'd done enough?

On the contrary, my work had just begun.


He taught me that awful lesson.

There's no messing around with GOD.

He will get you "off-line".

OFF His line.

And that scares me the most.

Losing that "anointing".

I hadn't stopped writing since.

If you must know, I FEAR the LORD, greatly.

I may be childlike, and playful, with Him.

But I don't test that patience.


That's how it is to work for the LORD.

You have to be devoted, consistent, faithful.

Trusting, patient, eager, excited.

On the job, every single day.

No slackers allowed.

No lazy bones.

No egotistic folks.


How does He make me work?

What are our working hours?

Is it fun?


GOD wakes me up -- anytime between 2am to 4pm.

Actually, more around 2:30 or 3:30 a.m.

We work for two to three hours before I prepare breakfast for family.

Within the day, we work throughout, too.

Interspersed between chores, duties, and responsibilities.

Life is simpler, but more fulfilling, than ever.

My days are busy, quiet, and focused.

Which suits me just fine.


He makes me listen to lots of sermons.

His SPIRIT discerns which sermon, or issue, to listen to.

Which we connect with Scripture.

Reviewing the validity of other people's claims.

From which I get ideas what to write about.

And boy, there are TONS of ideas.

You won't believe my notes.

Neither my "bookmarked" sites.


Some days, I'm washing dishes, watching cable, having a meal, and BOOM!

An idea hits, and I'm on it.

We "work" right away.

I "memorize" the idea, letting SPIRIT "produce" the verse.

Letting Him "develop" the article in my mind.

That's how we get to create the blogs.

Oftentimes, a series of articles already lie in wait.


I take notes, as the "ideas" hit.

I don't want to lose the "thread".

We have spools of it.

It's all SPIRIT, you see.

You pay attention.

ALL the time.


Ignore SPIRIT, and you've lost it.

You've lost that DIRECT connection with GOD.

You cannot retrieve what you chose to ignore.

Mercifully, I always pay attention.

And drop everything, once SPIRIT ignites a thought, a word, or an action.

And if I can't drop whatever I'm dong, just yet, I simply get the closest pen and paper in hand.

And write down EVERYTHING.

EXACTLY as He gave it.


Half of the ideas are worked on.

The other half?

It's just SPIRIT's way of testing.

Whether I care to write it down, or not.

When I do get back to that half, there was no need to develop an article.

SPIRIT just wants to see if I'm paying attention.

So, we just toss the other half.


Recently, He made me write notes for a friend.

More like warnings, really.

Just as I was about to sleep.

He didn't make me sleep till morning.

I'd go back to bed, thinking the instructions were enough.

Nope, SPIRIT had more.

He kept getting me back up.

I ended up going back to bed at 2am.

And delivering the "message" the same day.


SPIRIT gave His warnings in phrases.

And I'm merely "messenger".

I must "deliver" it.

EXACTLY as He said it.

Which I did.


A messenger is there to prevent a "mess".

See how much I love words!

My wonderful, wonderful "toys".

That's the gift GOD gave me.

A thing for words.

A love for phrases.

Especially defining phrases.

The secret is in words.

Which I shall write about, in the future.


As I edit this article, more ideas are circling in my head.

Percolating, percolating, percolating.

GOD gave me a joyful brain.

Delighting in "connecting" stuff.

It's not uncommon that while I'm writing, or editing, GOD continues to feed my brain with new stuff.

While writing an article, another comes up.

Sometimes, a whole bunch.

That's why I have to write fast.

And take TONS of notes.

Lest it all be lost.

I did say decades ago that there are "many books" in my heart.

Well, GOD tapped that.

His way.


But one thing I always do is pray.

I pray to know His will.

I ask JESUS what He wants written.

I ask His SPIRIT guide me to the verses.

We've already got a "system" in place.

Pray. Wait. Listen. Write. Share.


There's order, precision, and perfection.

My thoughts must be of GOD alone.

Never an injection of self, or ego.

My work must be pure, precise, and perfect.

For it is all offered to GOD.

It is offered to you.

I must not mislead anyone.

Everything must be ACCORDING to GOD's WORD.

Why the urgency?


The times are evil.

Man continues to sin.

Man continues to defy the LORD.

There are many false prophets.

Many misleading teachers.

Many dubious philosophies.

Many erring industries.

Many misguided governments.

Many corrupt leaders.

Much deception going on.

Many are "asleep".

Not realizing their errors.


We base everything on Scripture.

I merely follow SPIRIT's instructions.

What to write, what verse to use, when to share.

Who to share it with.

I do not judge your actions.

The HOLY SPIRIT does the reproving.

GOD's WORD judges.

Whether our acts be right, or wrong.

In the end, JESUS will judge us all.


And I found, we are much in the wrong.

That's why I write, to warn, to wake up.

To remind you to worship.

To share what wisdom is.

Always, through Scripture.


On 14 January 2020, JESUS called my attention to the Rapture.

The imminent event that concerns us all.

And I found, I've been pretty consistent in my writings.

Reflecting trustworthy teachers' findings.

Who would have thought I'd understand the Rapture easily?

Who would have thought I'd understand the Bible easily?

Who would have thought I'd understand GOD's commands easily?

GOD made it so.


He knew I waited so long for truth.

Exhausting all my time, funds, and research.

But He gave it all, the day I couldn't bear to sin anymore.

And made such a declaration in April 2019.

He made me born again FIVE months after that.

Today, it's been FIVE years since that momentous day.

I'm a FIVE-year born again today.


And I just keep looking forward to each lesson.

To each day, I'm meant to share Scripture with you.

Knowing GOD is at the helm.

Directing my EVERY step,

Guiding my EVERY thought.

Creating my EVERY article.


My confidence is in Him alone.

He gave us JESUS to follow.

Who taught us the RIGHT way back to GOD.

Through Himself.

For He lived a life of perfect obedience.

That's really what being born again means.

To know GOD's laws.

To follow them.

And to love JESUS, as you do.

John 14:15-18

King James Version

15 If ye love me, 

keep my commandments.

16 And I will pray the Father, 

and he shall give you another Comforter, 

that he may abide with you for ever;

17 Even the Spirit of truth; 

whom the world cannot receive, 

because it seeth him not, 

neither knoweth him: 

but ye know him; 

for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

18 I will not leave you comfortless: 

I will come to you.


All the while, remembering to GIVE THANKS to the LORD.

1 Thessalonians 5:18

King James Version

18 In every thing give thanks: 

for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus 

concerning you.


I've chosen the simple path.

Possibly the simplest path of all.

But the most exciting path ever.

Treading the path JESUS paved.

Of focusing on GOD alone.

Carrying my own cross.

Walking that narrow path.


It is a path of focus.

For the world is chaotic.

Filled with sin.

Filled with temptations.

Filled with deception.


I've chosen the GOD of the HEAVENS.

Not the god of this world.

Who refuses to bow to the LORD.

At his peril.

My soul is no longer in peril.

I belong to the LORD of ALL.

JESUS.

Philippians 2:10-11

King James Version

10 That at the name of Jesus 

every knee should bow, 

of things in heaven, 

and things in earth, 

and things under the earth;

11 And that every tongue should confess 

that Jesus Christ is Lord, 

to the glory of God the Father.


Tomorrow is not my birthday.

Today is my birthday.

My TRUE birthday.

A new creature.

BORN of GOD.

2 Corinthians 5:17

King James Version

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, 

he is a new creature: 

old things are passed away; 

behold, 

all things are become new.
