33 months ago

 

Psalm 90:12

King James Version

12 So teach us to number our days, 

that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

Do you know where you were, 33 months ago?

I sure did.

On April 2019, there was great distaste in my heart.

I didn't like the way I was living.

I wasn't proud of it.

I wanted change.

My work was not prospering either.

Truth be told, it was nil.

Nothing seemed to work.

It's as if GOD blocked EVERY aspect of my work.

Well, it was old work.

Sales, marketing, communications.

On field.

Online.

Old stuff.

Not being able to make sense of things, I kept praying.

What was His will?

What was His truth?

Please, can I have an answer, soon?

My finances were in a terrible state.

Surely, there was an answer somewhere.

What wasn't I getting?

What did I fail to perceive?

Why did my brain feel foggy?

What did God want me to know?

How was change to come about?

That April, I soul searched.

As if I hadn't been doing that regularly.

For decades.

Well, that April, I dove even deeper.

Finding no answer of my own, I raised my hands in surrender.

I was totally lost.

Kaput.

I'm out of answers.

I'm out of solutions.

I was in a desert.

Roaming around in circles.

My heart cried out to the LORD:

2 Chronicles 7:14

King James Version

14 If my people, 

which are called by my name, 

shall humble themselves, 

and pray, 

and seek my face, 

and turn from their wicked ways; 

then will I hear from heaven, 

and will forgive their sin, 

and will heal their land.

I wanted to change.

I wanted to have no part of sin.

I surrendered to God's will.

Seems to be all that God needed to know.

Did God show up right away?

Nope.

Took another five months wherein He led me to two prophetic videos.

Those videos woke me up, triggering something in me.

On the very same day, GOD made me born again.

Now, I knew the reason for roaming -- seeming aimlessly -- in the desert.

Only JESUS could lift the veil.

2 Corinthians 3:14

King James Version

14 But their minds were blinded: 

for until this day remaineth 

the same vail untaken away 

in the reading of the old testament; 

which vail is done away in Christ.

Those videos alerted me to something God wanted me to know.

The sinfulness of man.

The lust for things of the world.

The pride.

The ego.

Not seeking God.

Not believing in Jesus.

We're all part, and parcel, of those sins.

How man sinned in America, was echoed everywhere else.

No way could we keep sinning, without God enforcing justice.

On the very same day, He converted me.

I started reading the Bible.

Something I never did before.

Even as I'd read hundreds of books.

Boy, the words popped out like life!

I began reading the four gospels, wanting to know what Jesus said.

And I began taking notes of verses that called to me.

The first two verses in Genesis captivated me:

Genesis 1:1-2

King James Version

1 In the beginning 

God created the heaven and the earth.

2 And the earth was without form, 

and void; 

and darkness was upon the face of the deep. 

And the Spirit of God moved 

upon the face of the waters.

The dawn of a new day beckoned.

That paved the way for everything afterwards.

How EASY it was for me to UNDERSTAND God's WORD!

Where before, the Bible intimidated me, that day, it became clear as the light of day.

Of course, I eventually learned from Scripture, that it was the Holy Spirit that made things easy to understand.

Especially to those who had a childlike heart, which I've always had.

Then the books came.

And the blogs followed.

And I haven't stopped writing since.

As I wrote each article, SPIRIT helped me figure things out.

Leading me ever deeper into  Scripture.

It had to be GOD's WORD, or nothing.

It was my meditation, day and night.

Psalm 119:97

King James Version

97 O how love I thy law! 

it is my meditation all the day.

Most importantly, four months after God made me born again, Jesus called my attention to the Rapture on 14 January 2020.

It became the main basis, for all the writing I do.

That JESUS can have His faithful meet Him up in the air.

Any moment GOD chooses to.

And that I alert you to what SPIRIT told me:

"That all men may know the BIBLE, 

and live by it."

To know God, know the Bible.

For the Lord's day is at hand.

As apostle Peter said:

Acts 3:19

King James Version

19 Repent ye therefore, 

and be converted, 

that your sins may be blotted out, 

when the times of refreshing shall come 

from the presence of the Lord.

The veil has been lifted for me.

What about you?

Still living in a fog?

Time to wake up now.

Call upon GOD.

He will lead you to JESUS.

Through His SPIRIT.

Matthew 17:5

King James Version

5 While he yet spake, 

behold, 

a bright cloud overshadowed them: 

and behold a voice out of the cloud, 

which said, 

This is my beloved Son, 

in whom I am well pleased; 

hear ye him.

What a JUST Society OUGHT to Be

Mark 9:36-37 

King James Version

36 And he took a child, 

and set him in the midst of them: 

and when he had taken him in his arms, 

he said unto them,

37 Whosoever shall receive 

one of such children in my name, 

receiveth me: 

and whosoever shall receive me, 

receiveth not me, 

but him that sent me.

SCRIPTURE has many guidelines on what a JUST society ought to be. 

The LORD Jesus' heart was closest to the poor, the sick, the needy, the broken-hearted, the oppressed, the children, the widows, the orphans -- the forgotten ones of society.

Find GOD's TRUTH, in Scripture.

What JESUS stood for:

1 Samuel 16:7 (KJV)

7 But the Lord said unto Samuel, 

Look not on his countenance, 

or on the height of his stature; 

because I have refused him: 

for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; 

for man looketh on the outward appearance, 

but the Lord looketh on the heart. 

Psalm 147:3 (KJV)

3 He healeth the broken in heart, 

and bindeth up their wounds.

Psalm 147:6 (KJV)

6 The Lord lifteth up the meek: 

he casteth the wicked down to the ground.

Matthew 22:37 (KJV)

37 Jesus said unto him, 

Thou shalt love the Lord thy God 

with all thy heart, 

and with all thy soul, 

and with all thy mind. 

Matthew 25:35-36 (KJV)

35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: 

I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: 

I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

36 Naked, and ye clothed me: 

I was sick, and ye visited me: 

I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Matthew 25:40

King James Version

40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, 

Verily I say unto you, 

Inasmuch as ye have done it 

unto one of the least of these my brethren, 

ye have done it unto me.

Mark 12:29-30

King James Version

29 And Jesus answered him, 

The first of all the commandments is, 

Hear, O Israel; 

The Lord our God is one Lord:

30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God 

with all thy heart, 

and with all thy soul, 

and with all thy mind, 

and with all thy strength: 

this is the first commandment.

Luke 6:35-36 (KJV)

35 But love ye your enemies, 

and do good, 

and lend, 

hoping for nothing again; 

and your reward shall be great, 

and ye shall be the children of the Highest: 

for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

36 Be ye therefore merciful, 

as your Father also is merciful. 

John 13:14 (KJV)

14 If I then, 

your Lord and Master, 

have washed your feet; 

ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

John 13:34 (KJV)

34 A new commandment I give unto you, 

That ye love one another; 

as I have loved you, 

that ye also love one another.

Other SCRIPTURE verses:

Deuteronomy 15:7-8 (KJV)

7 If there be among you a poor man 

of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates 

in thy land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, 

thou shalt not harden thine heart, 

nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:

8 But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, 

and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, 

in that which he wanteth.

Deuteronomy 15:11 (KJV)

11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land: 

therefore I command thee, 

saying, 

Thou shalt open thine hand wide 

unto thy brother, 

to thy poor, 

and to thy needy, 

in thy land.

Psalm 82:3 (KJV)

8 He hath shewed thee, 

O man, 

what is good; 

and what doth the Lord require of thee, 

but to do justly, 

and to love mercy, 

and to walk humbly with thy God?

Zechariah 7:9 (KJV)

9 Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, 

saying, 

Execute true judgment, 

and shew mercy and compassions 

every man to his brother:

Zechariah 7:10 (KJV)

10 And oppress not the widow, 

nor the fatherless, 

the stranger, 

nor the poor; 

and let none of you imagine evil 

against his brother in your heart.

From John the Baptist:

Luke 3:10-11 (KJV)

10 And the people asked him, 

saying, 

What shall we do then?

11 He answereth and saith unto them, 

He that hath two coats, 

let him impart to him that hath none; 

and he that hath meat, 

let him do likewise.

Luke 3:12-13 (KJV)

12 Then came also publicans to be baptized, 

and said unto him, 

Master, 

what shall we do?

Exact no more 

than that which is appointed you.

What the World Needs the Most Now

4 The spirit of God hath made me, 

and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.

Job 33:4 

King James Version

When you have come to know God -- really know Him -- you will never be the same again.

When you are a follower of Jesus, the Son of God, you will love being led back to the FATHER.

And when you start learning from the Holy Spirit of God, you will marvel at the unerring knowledge that can only come from God.

When you reach this point in your life, having done all the "excavation" in your soul, you will experience the peace that can only come from the Holy Spirit -- the "Advocate", the "Teacher of All Things".

You will view the world as it really is, subject to the fallen one.

And yet your heart will be lifted up, knowing what you know about God, taking away all fear and confusion.

Without God, we are nothing.

With God, we have EVERYTHING.

People have forgotten that.

The world has been suffering for a very long time now, because people don't look to God anymore.

They have taken Him out of learning, out of institutions, out of government, out of homes, thinking God isn't needed anymore.

Of course, we all know who is responsible for that.

Anyone who buys into that lie, will never experience true love, success, nor peace.

Only God can give us those.

But the love, success, and peace God gives us, cannot ever be measured in world terms.

There is even no comparison.

Look deeply into your heart, and ask if you are happy, peaceful, and content, especially if you have no money, or even no job that seems to matter to the world.

If you can confidently say you are, then you have found God, for there are only two things in this world: 

24 No man can serve two masters: 

for either he will hate the one, 

and love the other; 

or else he will hold to the one, 

and despise the other. 

Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Matthew 6:24 (KJV)

Have no fear.

Continue to trust in the LORD.

The Lord knows all, sees all.

It will be by His DIVINE Right Timing that all will become well in this world.

Those who truly love God, are making their stand now.

These will be very interesting times, indeed.

As always, it had always been a battle for the soul.

As God knows me, He knows my stand.

Where do you stand?

May all the work we do, and the life we live, serve God alone.

Your Experience of God is Uniquely Your Own

If you search for God with all your heart, you will surely encounter Him in a way only you can identify.

Everyone will experience Him differently.

We're all many billion facets of His Being, and that's how it will be for each one of us.

And so I wonder why people say theirs is the only true way of experiencing God or of honoring Him.

That's how religions have been formed.

And that's how we've all been controlled to think.

But what if God came to you in an entirely different way?

Would you welcome Him if He came to you differently?

Like in an unexpected dream I once had of Him.

I woke up knowing He was all that, making Himself felt and known as that.

He was gentle and yet powerful.

Soothing and yet sublime.

And since I have been searching for Him all my life as I did my own thinking, He came through in many different ways. 

So who's to say what is right or what is wrong?

Who's to say theirs is the only correct way of experiencing God?

Perhaps, if people stopped arguing or debating, putting each other down, or mocking each other, God can come through beautifully and unimpeded.

I feel that if you really want to experience God personally, all you have to do is ask.

Pray to Him directly.

I pray to Him as a daughter would to Her One True Father -- the Creator of All.

And He always comes through my dreams, visions, or mind's eye in a way I can understand.

Thus, this blog and other blogs I've created.

There's so much to share, only because I have opened my heart and mind to Him.

Perhaps, He doesn't see any block in my receiving Him in my heart, mind, or spirit, so He comes through beautifully.

It has become so for me that I'm like an expectant child, happily awaiting more messages or instruction from Him.

And the same would be for you if you open your heart and mind to Him and Him alone.

Welcome whatever message, answer, or instruction that will come through that you may have asked for.

Only God can clarify your mind and heart.

Only He will give you the answers you seek.

I merely share with you my own experiences.

Your own will be different from mine, for you are uniquely you.

God doesn't need us to create a new religion from our experiences.

As our Father, He would want us to get along and to help each other.

We are all brothers and sisters and He is our Father and Creator.

Why do we make things too complicated?

Where there is complexity, there will be division and confusion.

God is All About Unity.

He knows I like things simple, so He comes into my life that way.

I have a five-year-old heart that seeks clarity, simplicity, and joy.

If you desire Him more than anything in the world, you will love how He will show up in your life.

Make Him the priority in everything and He will reflect the thought and energy you have.

Allow no one to tell you how God will be in your life.

For your soul to be happy, you must know Him directly.

That has been the objective of our lives anyway -- to experience the Love That Only He Can Give.

Actually, all we need to do is re-connect and re-member.

He was never far away from us.

He was always in our hearts. 

When you seek God above all, expect to be forever changed.
