"Test the Spirits"

The Spirit Of Truth and The Spirit of Error
1 John 3:24 – 4:1-6.

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. –1 John 4:1.

Test a teaching by lining it up with what the Word of God says. If the teaching is in agreement with the Word of God, it is from Almighty God. If the teaching is NOT in agreement with the Word of God, it is FALSE!

Watching and Praying

Well, sisters and brothers, I’ve been banned from two of my social networks. The Yahoo BUZZ UP social network, and the Soda Head.com social network communities. Soda Head.com is where all of my friends are, the same as once were Face Book. My Face Book friends were cut-off, for several days, from my social network activities too.


Is there a GLOBAL BLOG POLICE lurking around somewhere that I don’t know about yet? (0_0)

Oh well,

INFORMATION THAT NEWS REPORTERS FAILED TO REPORT:

I wonder if the people, who constantly keep calling me, know that I’m listed on the DO NOT CALL REGISTRY 1-888-382-1222. (o_0)

I now have the legal right to sue anyone who constantly keeps calling me, without my permission.

The Blame Game

Who do we sometimes blame, when life is not going the way we expect it to go?

GOD’S RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT

God will give to each person according to what he has done. To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger. There will be trouble and distress for every human being who does evil: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile; but glory, honor and peace for everyone who does good: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. For God does not show favoritism. -Romans 2:6-11 (NIV).

For as many as have sinned without law will also perish without law, and as many as have sinned in the law will be judged by the law (for not the hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the law will be justified; for when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do the things in the law, these, although not having the law, are a law to themselves, who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and between themselves their thoughts accusing or else excusing them) in the day when God will judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel. –Romans 2:12-16.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will… -Ephesians 1:3-5.

Man blames > Woman > blames Man > blames God > blames Satan > blames Man.

Man

And they put up over His head the accusation written against Him: THIS IS JESUS, THE KING OF THE JEWS. –Matthew 27:37.

The Pharisees and the teachers of the law were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely to see if he would heal on the Sabbath. –Luke 6:7.

And they began to accuse him, saying, “We have found this man subverting our nation. He opposes payment of taxes to Caesar and claims to be Christ, a king.” -Luke 23:2.

The Lord said to Job: “Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him? Let him who accuses God answer him!” -Job 40:1-2 (NIV).

Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm: “Brace yourself like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me. Would you discredit my justice? Would you condemn me to justify yourself?…” -Job 40:6-8 (NIV).

Woman

Being the closest one to the man, woman is caught up in the crossfire of the blame game.

God

“Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. I tell you the truth, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny.” -Matthew 5:25 (NIV).

Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. –1 Peter 5:8 (NIV).

Therefore I desire that the younger widows marry, bear children, manage the house, [give no opportunity to the adversary] to speak reproachfully. For some have already turned aside after Satan. –1 Timothy 5:14-15.

Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. –Revelation 12:10.

Satan

So Satan answered the Lord and said, “Does Job fear God for nothing? Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!” –Job 1:9-12,

And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat…” -Luke 22:31.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

…But she who lives in pleasure is dead while she lives. And these things command, that they may be blameless. – 1 Timothy 5:6-7.

Do not accuse a man for no reason, when he has done you no harm. –Proverbs 3:30 (NIV).

Likewise the soldiers asked him, saying, “And what shall we do?” So he said to them, “Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.”  -Luke 3:14.

Do not receive an accusation against an elder except from two or three witnesses.
–1 Timothy 5:19.

…whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a reviling accusation against them before the Lord. –2 Peter 2:11.

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.

…Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah. –Jude 1:11.

Commentary

When working and living, at an outreach mission ministry, I remember a man who stood outside the facilities, in the courtyard, each day about 3:00 A.M. in the morning. He would constantly blaspheme (use profane cursing) the name of the Lord. The man did this continuously the same time each morning. And, if you ever came close enough to him, or happen to be anywhere in his presence, you could always smell the strong odor of gasoline on him.

It was only a few weeks later, after I left the outreach mission ministry, that I saw a news report on television about a house being set on fire. The house fire was clearly reported as an act of arson. But, after I heard the name of the facility that was set on fire, I remembered the man who blasphemed God, and the man always smelled of gasoline!

Immediately, I went to the facility, and spoke with one of the managers. She showed me how the house fire had contained itself in one place, by not spreading to any of the other houses on the property. As I was looking at the fire damaged house, the manager pointed to some trees that were close to the house, and I noticed one tree, in particular, had branches hanging over the house that was set on fire. Neither the trees, nor any of its branches had been burned. And the manager told me how big the fire had been. It was immensely clear to both of us that a miracle had taken place, during that unfortunate incident!

Overcoming Evil Activity

!!!WAR IN THE SPIRITUAL REALM!!!

The Holy Spirit has again revealed to me that I am under another attack through demonic forces that are influencing some people working with computers, and through advanced computer technology.

So, this message is for those of you who are in this army of demonic evil forces, and who are being deceived through the works of Satan!

Your ongoing attempts to sabotage my computer, email accounts, and telephone line are futile. “YOU NEED TO START PRAYING RIGHT NOW TO THE TRUE LIVING GOD AND REPENT OF YOUR EVIL DEEDS!”

You are NOT attacking me. You are attacking the Holy Spirit of Almighty God!

Are you more powerful than Almighty God??? Are you more intelligent than the Holy Spirit of Almighty God???

Lucifer, the prince of Persia, false angel of light, serpent, dragon, devil, and Satan, you are already a defeated foe! Jesus Christ conquered you, and triumph over you on the Cross-, through His blood. Therefore, any works and efforts from you to deceive me, or overcome my decision to follow Jesus Christ, and do only His will, and NOT the will of Satan, the devil and his demonic evil forces, those efforts are fruitless, and have already been defeated through Jesus Christ!!!

I am not moved by your LIES and DECEPTION through others who are following your lying and deceptive ways!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Heavenly Father, You are my Refuge and my Rock. You are in control of everything that happens in my life. I am your servant, called by Your name. Thank you for giving me the Helmet of salvation. My identity in Jesus Christ is secure. Nothing can separate me from Your love. Thank you for forgiving me, and cleansing my guilt (any confession needed). I put on Your breastplate of righteousness. Holy Spirit, search out and bring into light, any schemes of darkness directed at me. I take up the Shield of faith to stand against the works of the evil one. In Jesus name, I stand on the truth of the Word of Almighty God. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested that He might destroy the works of the evil one. (1 John 3:8).

Satan, I rebuke you, in the authority of Jesus Christ!!! I declare your works in my life destroyed!!! Jesus triumphed over you, in the wilderness, on the cross, and in the grave!!! His resurrection has sealed your fate!!! I now triumph over you in the strength of His name!!! I resist and rebuke your efforts to oppress, afflict, or deceive me!!! I remove from you the right to rob me of the joy, and the fruit of my salvation!!! Through the power, and the blood of Calvary, I command all powers of darkness assigned to me (or my computer), sent to me, or surrounding me right now, to leave!!! Go where Jesus Christ orders you to go, never to return!!! (Mark 11:23).

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lord Jesus, you have called and equipped me to follow You and do Your will. I submit to You. In my affliction, I ask You to convict me of any sin that allows the arrows of Satan to buffet me. I am willing and ready to repent of anything that gives the enemy a place. I ask You to reveal the areas of ignorance, or fear that may give the enemy opportunity. Lord search out, expose, and break the power of all the schemes of Satan that have been sent to me. Heavenly Father, I seek your face. Lord, Jesus Christ, I call unto You right now. Hear and answer my prayer, and deliver me from this trouble. I ask You to turn this evil into good!

Satan, I raise my Shield of faith against you, and resist you with the Sword of the Spirit, and the word of Almighty God that proclaims your judgement as a false god, accuser, and afflicter of the children, of Almighty God!!! I announce your works in my life, the life of my family, the life of my friends, and the life of my church members destroyed!!! Through the power of the blood of Jesus Christ, I refuse and break all evil curses, hexes, spells, incantations, rituals, psychic powers, or works of witchcraft sent to defeat or destroy my life and ministry!!! I resist all demonic powers sent to me, from false religious ideas, the Internet, through computer technology, through any or all communication networks, and AFFINITY FRAUD!!!

I command all powers of evil to return immediately to the source from which you came!!! In the name of Jesus Christ, I speak blessings on email fraud, computer fraud, computer scams, and everything else that are the evil works of Satan, and his demonic children. These blessings will turn all of these evil works from bad, and into good!!! I ask the Holy Spirit to convict you of your sins, and DRAW YOU INTO THE LIGHT!!!

I call for all of you (who are the workers of evil, and demonic activity) to turn from your sins, and turn to the mercy of the living Almighty God!!!

I find comfort in the word of Almighty God!!!
 “…a curse without cause will not alight…” -Proverbs 26:2.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Holy Spirit, I ask you, right now, to increase the works of all ministries that are warring, against the evil demonic forces, in the spiritual realm!!! Through the Blood of Jesus Christ, all Intra-network Ministries are now increased sevenfold, with Holy Spirit power, in their efforts to war (in the spiritual realm), against and abolish demonic, and evil attacks, in the lives of the people of Almighty God. All prayer warrior ministries have now been increased sevenfold, in accomplishing the will of Almighty God, through the Blood of Jesus Christ!!! All the efforts of these prayer warrior ministries will take permanent root, and become increasingly more firmly established, throughout the entire world, according to the will of Almighty God!!!!!!!

I GIVE ALL PRAISES TO THE TRUE LIVING GOD!

Praise the Lord! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Trick? or Treat?

All God’s children got to go home!

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. –2 Peter 1:20-21. (KJV).

~~~~~~~~~~~~

For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye witnesses of His majesty. –2 Peter 1:16.

Seventy-Weeks

The time of abomination of desolation is upon us.

“And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation…” -Daniel 11:31.

“Seventy weeks are determined for your people and for your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make and end of sins, to make reconciliation for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy”… -Daniel 9:24.

In the same way that knowledge had increased (Daniel 12:4). That same knowledge shall cease!

Hold steadfast the Word of Almighty God in your hearts.

“And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away, and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days. But you, go your way till the end; for you shall rest, and will arise to your inheritance at the end of the days.” -Daniel 12: 11

Personal Privacy

Social Networking Privacy Issues

It has recently come to my attention that there are several people experiencing problems with social network accounts, and email passwords since the recent integration of all the major social networks! I had a problem about two weeks ago with my email account. I have yet to receive a reply, as to what the problem actually was.

And, I’ve also noticed how only certain information is being disseminated throughout the chat rooms, and other information is deleted, or withheld, and not released as part of the conversations. I just recently submitted several comments on a popular social network chat site, and all of my comments were released except one. That particular comment was only a test to see if it would make it to the chat room. And that comment was not released, as part of the chat room conversation!

Also, have anyone else been having problems with saving the disclosure settings on the email profiles in Yahoo? I’ve noticed a lot of different changes on the “Manage who sees my Updates” settings. And, after I managed the settings list, I was not able to SAVE THE CHANGES!

I just wondered if anyone else has had similar problems, before I voice a formal complaint about the issue. And, the all Yahoo! property sources are not able to be saved either. After I made my changes, for example: All preferences were currently set to “SHARING WITH ANYONE”. I don't know who set those preferences. I certainly didn't, and I was not able to save the settings, after making the necessary changes. And to be sure that I was not making a mistake, I tried saving my settings a third time. Upon the third try, the entire disclosure settings disappeared completely. I was not able to find them again!

Affinity Fraud

OK, What Is Affinity Fraud?


Suddenly, after my work experiences as a former Federal Government employee, and also having extensive advertising and research skills, for some reason I’m unable to find any concrete information on Affinity Fraud.

First, (in no certain order) there was Bank fraud, Check fraud, Immigration fraud, Marriage fraud, Credit card fraud, Medicaid fraud, and all the other Fraud frauds I can’t remember right now. NOW e-mail account fraud! And… Affinity Fraud?

I’ve already been a victim of Immigration fraud, and Bank fraud. Can anyone out there in cyberspace explain in layman terms what Affinity Fraud is? I WANT TO KNOW IF I’VE BEEN A VICTIM OF THAT TOO! (0_o)

For some apparent reason I haven’t been able to find any concrete information on Affinity Fraud. I recently saw the following information @ SEC http://www.sec.gov/news/press.shtml >> on Twitter.com that said on Investor.gov: Learn How to Spot and Avoid “Affinity Fraud” – http://bit.ly/6u86Lx and on Investor.gov: “What is Affinity Fraud?” – http://bit.ly/6u86Lx, and for some reason, beyond my knowledge YET, I’m not able to determine exactly what Affinity Fraud is.

Anybody else familiar with this recent type of fraud?

Symbolism

This blog post is about understanding the symbols used for end-time Bible Prophecy in the Book of Revelation.

We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him. We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one. And we know that the Son of God had come and has given us an understanding, that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life. Little children, keep yourselves from idols. – 1 John 5:18-21.

“If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb…” -Revelation 14:9-10.

WAR IN THE INVISIBLE REALM

…something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood. And a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed. – Revelation 8:8-9.

…and something like a huge mountain, all ablaze, was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned into blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed. –Revelation 8:8-9. (NIV).

…I saw a star fallen from heaven to the earth. To him was given the key to the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace. So the sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit. Then out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. They were commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, or any green thing, or any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. –Revelation 9:1-4.

…I saw a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. The star was given the key to the shaft of the Abyss. When he opened the Abyss, smoke rose from it like the smoke from a gigantic furnace. The sun and sky were darkened by the smoke from the Abyss. And out of the smoke locusts came down upon the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of the earth. They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads. – Revelation 9:1-4. (NIV).

Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came among them. And the Lord said to Satan, “From where do you come?” So Satan answered the Lord and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking back and forth on it.” –Job 1:6-7.

“And these were the ones by the wayside where the word is sown. When they hear, Satan comes immediately and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts. –Mark 4:15.

“Some people are like seed along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them. –Mark 4:15. (NIV).

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ. And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works. –2 Corinthians 11:13-15.

For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve. –2 Corinthians 11:13-15. (NIV).

The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteousness deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. –2 Thessalonians 2:9-10.

You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, till iniquity was found in you. By the abundance of your trading, you became filled with violence within, and you sinned…” -Ezekiel 28:14-16a.

“You were anointed as a guardian cherub, for so I ordained you. You were on the holy mount of God; you walked among the fiery stones. You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created till wickedness was found in you. Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned…” –Ezekiel 28:14-16a. (NIV).

“How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, you who weakened the nations!…” -Isaiah 14:12.

“How you have fallen from heaven, O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations!…” -Isaiah 14:12. (NIV).

History: About a third of the population of otters died, during the oil spill in Prince William Sound, Alaska, on March 24, 1989. Many of them died from ingesting the oil. Earth Almanac, National Geographic, February 1991, Vol. 179, No. 2.


COMMENTARY
Has anyone else noticed that numerically speaking, the word “a third” is used throughout the entire Holy Bible? Also, Satan’s tail drew a third of the stars from heaven, when he was cast out! Does anyone know the number of, or approximately how many of those angels are considered to be “one-third”? This question is for the mathematical minds!

Jesus Christ said, “…do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels?” (Matt. 26:53).

Legion – a Roman army division of six thousand men that sometimes included a cavalry unit; name given to the Gadarene demoniac, because of the large number of demons possessing him. (Luke 8:26, 30).

Wealth

Wealth is worthless in the day of wrath. (Proverbs 11:4).

Some churches are promoting the wealth that Lucifer, now called Satan the devil, promises. (Matthew 4:8-9).

Today, are there any churches teaching about the wealth that comes from Almighty God? (Deuteronomy 8:18).

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lucifer, now called Satan the devil, uses his power to tempt, and deceive us through biblical laws. (Genesis 3:13).

Commentary

from the desk of

Jonahs Sister


This is a great era to be alive in. There are so many exciting, and wonderful things taking place in this world today. However, it still amazes me to see some people's reactions to different world events, and hear them say, "...this has never happened before!"  My only reaction is GOD IS STILL ON THE THRONE!

I would like to take this time, and apologize to my Blogging and Twitter family-friends for my being so slow in navigating worldly thinking. It is only when I go directly on to the battlefield, and into the spiritual realm with fervent prayers, that I have a cause to interact with worldly thinking! I have just now come into the realization that some of you, may still be waiting to hear from me, through Direct Messaging.

My Jonahs Sister’s mailbox account was recently tampered with, and my computer security advised me to not log into the account. I received a message saying that someone was trying to trick me, or sabotage my E-mails. I simply changed accounts. And some of my blogging followers, using that particular email account, may still be waiting for an email reply. However, I reported the problem to the proper authorities. And, it is only through sheer curiosity, that I am still waiting for a report on the situation. Perhaps, it will be something interesting enough for me to add to my book, on the subject of spiritual attacks. I will not take anything for granted. I am still having problems getting into FACEBOOK. Most of my Facebook friends are people I went to school with. They are true Nehemiah Prayer Warriors!

I was spiritually, and directly attacked by demons, before I began sharing this blogging journey with all of you. I’m fully aware of the fact that I am invading the territory of demonic forces. These demonic forces are territorial fighters. They actually fight each other, over the opportunity to seek possession over the human spirit. I learned this information from my deliverance Pastor. It was absolutely amazing for me to hear the testimonies, from various church members about their experiences, during a deliverance church service.

I’ve only witnessed one such church service myself. It took at least three Pastors, and a few other people to restrained an individual that was going through a spiritual deliverance. During that time, it was my first experience. And, I was among the people standing near the doorway ready to run. Someone had been thoughtful enough to inform us that demonic spirits jump from one person to another person, during deliverance services. So, we were standing far away enough just to observe what was happening. Small children, and babies are not allowed to attend these services.

My original plans were to include most of my journey in the first book. Because, my experiences since childhood are vast and varied, someone had suggested to me, to write two books about my experiences instead of one book. But, because I am obedient to the Word of God, I was inspired to share my journey through blogging. And, the website Smyrna Makanopy was created out of that inspiration.

Now, since I have recently learned a little about blogging, I have been thoroughly enjoying it. And, all of the negative comments have been a tremendous blessing for me. Which brings me to the core purpose of this message. I want all of you to know that I have been trying to keep up with all of the Direct Messages. Sometimes the messages come so frequently, that I am not able to read all of them in one day. It will sometimes take me at least two days to finish them. I am also currently working on a Family Blog. My family have vividly made it known to me, that I am not spending enough quality time with them. So I’ve been sharing my computer time with my immediate family, and my blogging and twitter family. Thank you, to all of you for showing me so much love. This world needs a whole lot more of it!

To my negative comments and pessimistic family, I love you too, dahlings. Don’t stop blessing me with your negative comments, and evil attacks. I’m beginning to miss them. Keep those blessings coming! And to those of you who may be hording negative spirits, I challenge you to a Bible Study session, one-on-one!

There will be people, who will be bold enough to challenge Jesus Christ when He returns! And, according to His word, the boldness of that challenge will cause their flesh to melt from their bones!

Love,

In a dimmed veiled atmosphere, and deep void of vast space, I can see the most monstrous, green, dragon like creature that anyone can never imagine seeing, in their most imaginable wildest dreams. Not even Hollywood can come up with a thriller image of something this creepy looking. Even the creature’s eyes, look “creepy”, as if the eyes are on fire or something, but there is no burning flame.

This monstrous creature looks like a gigantic mammoth, except it has a body similar to that of a man! The monstrous creature’s thick round body is proportional to its gigantic arms, and legs. And the monstrous creature’s overall skin is similar to that of a fish, or a crocodile, but the texture of its skin appears to be horny, similar to a warthog but several times worse looking. And it is sitting down, with bended knees, on something! The head of this monstrous creature is repeatedly turning left to right, and back to the left in a continuous movement, as if it is searching for something. There are occasional flashes of light, similar to lightning during an electrical storm, and a smoky substance, or a type of steam is surrounding the creature’s environment. It appears almost as if the monstrous creature is cooking something. I am unable to see below the place where this monstrous creature is sitting.

“When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. - Isaiah 43:2 (KJV).

Tattoos

This is a book chapter Synopsis:

Religion existed in the world, before the establishment of Christianity (Acts 11:26) at Antioch. (additional scripture reading: Acts 13:14-50).

Tattoos and Self-laceration is an ancient pagan religion!

In ancient times, people believed that tattooing protected them from harmful magic. And, some tattoos indicated that a person belonged to a certain god or cult.


Neolithic Age

Fertility figurines (carved or molded statuettes), discovered in Jordan, is the earliest evidence of tattooing in the ancient Near East.


Middle Kingdom (Egypt)

Tattoos, associated with Hathor (a fertility goddess), were discovered on the mummy of a priestess, and on figurines as well. These figurines linked sexuality with rebirth, as a means of ensuring the resurrection of the dead. The figurines were directly related to “Brides of the Dead”.


New Kingdom (Egypt)

Tattoos, which were worn or displayed on the skin of people, depicted Bes, a god of childbirth and the home.


Mesopotamia

Temple slaves were often tattooed (branded with a mark) with the symbol of the respective temples to which they belonged.

In the ancient Near East, self-laceration and tattooing was associated with death. Mesopotamian women slashed themselves as a sign of grief. Self-laceration, in the fertility cult of Baal, was associated with mourning for a “deceased” deity.


Ancient Deities

A deity is defined as a pagan god or goddess worshipped by the pagan people. Several of these pagan practices have been combined with Christian religious worship. It is historically referred to as The Big Compromise.

Baal – Canaan storm god. (1 Kings 16:31; 18:18-46).

Ashtoreth (Astarte) – Canaan mother-goddess; love; fertility.
 (Judge 2:13; 10:6; 1 Samuel 12:10; 1 Kings 11:5).

Queen of Heaven – also similar to Anat and Ishtar. The same as Ashtoreth.
 (Jeremiah 7:8; 44:17-25).

Ishtar – “Queen of Heaven” Babylonian goddess of fertility. And even today, there are still some women who are involved in this type of worship.

Lady of Heaven – Anat, Astarte (Ashtoreth), counterpart Ishtar (also called “Queen of Heaven”) is a Mesopotamian goddess. All of these goddesses are connected to the worship of the planet Venus; astral worship was popular during the 7th Century B.C.

A well-known fertility motif (design on a work of art) was discovered on a baking mold at Mari. The motif was in the form of a naked female with hands supporting her breasts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

“The children gather wood, the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes for the queen of heaven; and they pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke Me to anger…” -Jeremiah 7:18.

“…to burn incense to the queen of heaven and pour out drink offerings to her, as we have done, we and our fathers, our kings and our princes, in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem. For then we had plenty of food, were well-off, and saw no trouble. But since we stopped burning incense to the queen of heaven and pouring out drink offerings to her, we have lacked everything and have been consumed by the sword and by famine.” The women also said, “And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven and poured out drink offerings to her, did we make cakes for her, to worship her, and pour out drink offerings to her without our husbands permission?” -Jeremiah 44: 17-19.

For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites. –1 Kings 11:5.

For he built the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; he raised up altars for Baal, and made a wooden image, as Ahab king of Israel had done; and he worshipped all the host of heaven and served them. –2 Kings 21:3.

Then he removed the horses that the kings of Judah had dedicated to the sun, at the entrance to the house of the Lord, by the chamber of Nathan-Melech, the officer who was in the court; and he burned the chariots of the sun with fire… Then the king defiled the high places that were east of Jerusalem which were on the south of the Mount of Corruption, which Solomon king of Israel had built for Ashtoreth the abomination of the Sidonians, for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the people of Ammon. –2 Kings 23:11,13

“…nor shall you practice devination or soothsaying.” -Leviticus 19:26.


Astrology is also a form of astral worship!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mesopotamian Deities

Marduk – Babylonian storm god; chief god. (Jeremiah 50:2).

Bel – is another name for Marduk. (Isaiah 46:1; Jeremiah 50:2; 51:44).

Nebo (Nabu) – son of Marduk (Isaiah 46:1).

Tammuz (Dumuzi) – Sumerian storm god. (Ezekiel 8:14).


There are some other basic major deities that are also associated with the deities in scripture:

Anu – head of the pantheon

Osiris – death

Isis – life

Horus – sun

Hathor – mother goddess

Ra (Re) – sun

Seth – evil storm

Enlil – storm

Ea-Enki – water

Sin (Nanna) – moon

Ishtar – sex, fertility

Ninurta - war

One of the above deities is associated with the Easter celebration, and three of the above deities have been assimilated into the celebration of Christmas! The reference to their names will give you a clue. Can you guess who they are?

Deities varied in attributes and rank according to the time period, and areas of the country. Therefore, these very same deities are still being worshipped in our society today. Some people have various statues, or small figurines of these deities in their homes right now. The statues and figurines are commonly used for decorations in interior designs. Others are used in various arts, such as paintings, pictures, etc. Perhaps you have also seen a few of these decorations. Many of these decorations may not be intended for use as pagan worship, but regardless of that fact, they still exalt a varied form of the pagan practices. Why do pagan practices and pagan concepts still exist in modern society? This powerful influence, in the world even today, is the subtle works of Satan!

The practices of pagan worship led to God’s judgment upon His people.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Biblical prohibition against tattoos and self-laceration for the dead was directed against specific idolatrous practices, particularly erotic religious rites associated with the dead.

“You shall not shave around the sides of your head, nor shall you disfigure the edges of your beard. You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the Lord…” - Leviticus 19:27-28.

The Old Testament considered tattooing, and bodily disfigurement to be a pagan and depraved habit.

“You are the children of the Lord your God; you shall not cut yourselves nor shave the front of your head for the dead. For you are a holy people to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.” -Deuteronomy 14:1-2.

So they took the bull, which was given them, and they prepared it, and called on the name of Baal from morning even till noon, saying, “O Baal, hear us!” But there was no voice; no one answered. Then they leaped about the altar, which they had made.

Elijah shows his talent as a comedian:

And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, “Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened."

So they cried aloud, and cut themselves, as was their custom, with knives and lances, until the blood gushed out on them.  -1 Kings 18:26-28.


A Historical Note: The name “Queen of Heaven” is applied to several goddesses throughout the ancient Near East, and this same name is used in several variations.

Another name variation in existence, and associated with the name “Queen of Heaven” is still used throughout the world today. Some people are already familiar with this pagan practice. The popular and famous name is an object of religious worship, and associated with Christmas celebrations!

Reality Check

I was watching a major news program this morning that had a talk segment on the country's national issues, and how these issues will supposedly affect our nation in a negative way. My ears were neutral to the conversation, until I heard someone say something about “rewriting history”. This was my understanding, from the conversation, of the well-educated minds: "They were poking criticism at national leaders for attempting to rewrite history".

Rewriting history? History about what, where, when, or who? The history of mankind was written before the establishment of the world. This particular type of history will never change under any circumstances!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Biblical History

Biblical History established the world’s foundation.

Biblical History was rewritten to the extent of glamorizing entertainment drama.

Biblical History has already been rewritten out of the lives, of a majority of the people living in this world.

Biblical History reminds many of us about our past.

Biblical History reveals the present state of this world, and why the present state of those conditions still exists today.

Biblical History sets the stage and path for our future.

Biblical History will cause us to come face-to-face, with those occasional unpleasant revelations about who we are, where we came from, and where we are going.

Biblical History answers all of the questions that extremely well educated scholars, psychologists, psychiatrists, theorists, evolutionists, and all the other “ists”, who are endlessly seeking answers, to the questions that they can never really seem to find any real concrete solutions.

Biblical History reveals the basic human nature of mankind.

Biblical History has told us why peace will not exist, in our lifetime, before Jesus Christ returns!

Biblical History tells us why wars take place, and these wars will continue to take place until the world ends.

Biblical History will always remain the most vital part of man's history, for the remaining lifetime of mankind, and all of creation.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now, how truly important is it, for anyone to criticize the rewriting of the part of history, which was established by man? Has man’s history resolved, or increased the world’s steady growing problems? Will man’s rewriting of history become more important, than the biblical history that was first established by Almighty God? Today, who is actually searching for the will of the true living God? Who still dares the attempt to rewrite the only one history that really matters? The real answers will be revealed on Judgment Day!

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye. Do not be like the horse or like the mule, which have no understanding, which must be harnessed with bit and bridle, else they will not come near you. Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; but he who trusts in the Lord, mercy shall surround him. Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous; and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

-Psalm 32:8-11.


Living your life through Jesus Christ is the only important thing that TRULY matters in this dying world.  Jesus Christ died for our transgressions of Almighty God's laws.

THAT'S  A HISTORICAL FACT.

Demonic Activity

PUBLIC STORAGE VANDALISM

The old adage holds true: Locks are for honest people.

"But if you indeed obey His voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries."

Exodus 23:22

Unconquered

I have just returned from the wilderness (of worldly activity). Someone recently broke into the storage facilities, where I have some of my personal property stored. Some valuable items were stolen from other storage units, but nothing of value, or importance seems to be missing from my storage unit. However, the outside storage door latch was broken, but everything inside the unit is the same way that I left it, during the last time I was there about two months ago!

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. –Hebrews 10:31

“For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him…” –2 Chronicles 16:9

I will enter His gates
with thanksgiving in my heart,
I will enter His courts
with praise!
I will say, “This is the day that the Lord has made.”
I will rejoice for He has made me glad.

He has made me glad,
I’m so glad,
I will rejoice
for He has made me glad!


The Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.
–2 Thessalonians 3:3.

True Spiritual Growth

I am hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed, …Therefore, I will not loose heart. Even though my outer appearance is perishing, my inner spirit is being renewed day by day.
(2 Corinthians 4:8-9,16).

The Holy Spirit continues to impart spiritual knowledge to my human spirit. It is Almighty God’s awesome power operating in me, and through me.
It is not I, by myself. (2 Corinthians 4:7).

After I chose to accept Jesus Christ as my personal Savior, I also decided to follow the path of His direction and guidance. The Lord is my Shepherd! (Psalm 23).

Through my spiritual growth, I am able to see the things, which are not seen. I have been gifted with seeing the invisible! (2 Corinthians 4:16-18).

Abundant Life

When life wants to take you lower than low, allow the Lord to take you higher than high!

Break free from the world’s mind-set of depression, failure, and defeat. The world can make losers out of people. Only Jesus makes TRUE WINNERS! Each day, make it your goal and life commitment to say, “I will not let life take me lower than what Jesus has already established for me in my life.”

Our Heavenly Father has a great plan for our lives, and we will not allow ourselves to get stuck (crushed, despair, not forsaken or destroyed), in the mud of life. If we should ever find ourselves stuck in the “mud”, all we need to do is call on Jesus. And He will pull us out! (Matthew 21:22; John 14:14; Philippians 4:6; Hebrews 4:16).

We can then move forward with learning and experiencing all of the good things that life have to offer us, because Jesus already has an awesome plan for our life!

“…For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good? For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.     -1 Peter 3:12-13,17

Walking By Faith

A life of stress and worry will cause us to prematurely age beyond our years, and make us miss out on the more important things in life. We have already been freed from worry. And, we are too blessed to be stressed!

Jesus said, “No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life…” “Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? ” -Matthew 6:24-25,27

“Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. –Matthew 6:34

We are simply choosing to believe God’s Word above the evidence of the senses, when we walk by faith, knowing that natural circumstances are to be kept subject to the Word of God. We are walking by faith, not by sight, because, we are assured of the “end results”. (2 Corinthians 5:7).

The Just Live By Faith

Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus, who was faithful to Him who appointed Him, as Moses was faithful in all His house.
 –Hebrews 3:1-2

Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says, “Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, in the day of trial in the wilderness, where your fathers tested me, tried Me, and saw My works forty years. Therefore I was angry with that generation, and said, “They always go astray in their heart, and they have not known My ways.” So I swore in My wrath, “They shall not enter My rest.” –Hebrews 3:7-11

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. –Hebrews 10:23

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. –Hebrews 11:1

By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. –Hebrews 11:3

The Invisible Realm: Faith gives us the power and ability to understand that everything we see in this physical world was created out of the invisible or spiritual realm. The entire universe, including the earth, was created by God out of the invisible realm. The many things that we see in our society today are the direct results of warfare and conflict in the invisible realm. The only way to solve the problem is to enter the invisible realm through prayer with faith, and to change reality on our knees.

By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain…
 -Hebrews 11:4

By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, “and was not found, because God had taken him”… -Hebrews 11:5

By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household… -Hebrews 11:7

By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place, which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. –Hebrews 11:8

By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.  –Hebrews 11:11

By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises offered up his only begotten son…
 -Hebrews 11:17

By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come.
 –Hebrews 11:20

By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and worshipped, leaning on top of his staff. –Hebrews 11:21

By faith Joseph, when he was dying, made mention of the departure of the children of Israel, and gave instructions concerning his bones. –Hebrews 11:22

By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden three months by his parents, because they saw he was a beautiful child; and they were not afraid of the king’s command.  –Hebrews 11:23

By faith Moses, when he became of age, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin… -Hebrews 11:24-25

By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible. –Hebrews 11:27

By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, lest he who destroyed the firstborn should touch them. –Hebrews 11:28

By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were encircled for seven days.  –Hebrews 11:30

By faith the harlot Rahab did not perish with those who did not believe, when she had received the spies with peace. –Hebrews 11:31

And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah, also of David and Samuel and the prophets: who through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again. Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment. They were stoned, they were sawn in two, were tempted, were slain with the sword. They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented… –Hebrews 11:32-37

And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us. –Hebrews 11:40

How have we prepared ourselves for the race of faith?

Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, who is the Author and Finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
 –Hebrews 12:1-2

It has been said that our lives are like the pages of a book on which Jesus can rewrite the story of our lives by His power. Jesus has definitely rewritten the story on my life!

Through His blood, Jesus can remove any previous chapters where we failed in life, and blew it. Today, Jesus is still writing brand-new and exciting chapters on our lives. Jesus is perfect, and He’s finishing our faith. Jesus demonstrated His faith by dying on a cross, knowing that He would be resurrected to sit at the right hand of Almighty God!

By faith, we shall overcome our Adversary, and any other adversities in life that would attempt to distract us, from the perfect plan that Jesus has established for our life.

JESUS IS THE ONLY ANSWER FOR THE WORLD TODAY.

The Apocrypha

The Missing Books of the Holy Bible!

What have you been told about the Apocrypha? What have you been led to believe? What do you truly believe?

Have you read the Apocrypha? Why are these hidden books missing?

Who is it Really, that caused these books to be hidden? And, what were they actually afraid of, if these books were revealed to the world?

Just who, or perhaps what entity, or entities DID NOT want these particular books, in the Apocrypha made fully known, and aware of? What's the real story behind the hidden story?

Jonahs Sister takes a jouney through the Apocrypha.

The Tribulation

CHURCH PREPARE FOR TRIBULATION!


These were the exact words that I saw on a sign that a stranger was carrying a few years ago, as he walked on the sidewalk of a major street, during rush hour traffic. The stranger was walking from east to west. The stranger appeared to be about 7 feet tall, and wearing a white shirt, and tailored dark trousers. This stranger, while holding the sign with both hands, lifted the sign high over his head as he walked at a swift steady pace!

Tribulation (burden) – Great affliction or distress (trial); An experience that test one’s endurance, patience, or faith.

“For them there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be” (Matthew 24:21).

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).

A Multitude From The Great Tribulation

And I said to him, “Sir, you know.” So he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb” (Revelation 7:14).

Read: (Revelation 2:1) - The great God of Revelation walks right in the middle of those lamps. Wherever you find the lamp, He is right in the middle. Jesus Christ is walking in the middle of His church. He is at the center. God makes everything revolve around His church. The whole course of the world is determined by what the church is proclaiming!

Read: (Revelation 2:7) – Who hears what the Spirit says unto the churches! “To him that overcometh…” You have to overcome (conquer) to be in the midst of this paradise of Almighty God. You have to (conquer) to really hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Rev. 2:1 – The Loveless Church

Rev. 2:8 – The Persecuted Church

Rev. 2:12 – The Compromising Church

Rev. 2:18 – The Corrupt Church

Rev. 3:1 – The Dead Church

Rev. 3:7 – The Faithful Church

Rev. 3:14 – The Lukewarm Church

Jesus Christ shed His blood, and died for us. “And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations.” (Revelation 2:26). Yes, as believers in the Word of God, we are going to rule the Earth. (But ,what will happen to the nonbelievers?)

Your race, your station in life, how poor or rich you may be – makes no difference. Playing the “race card” will have no significance. Some people tend to get hung up on race. Almighty God is trying to teach us about spiritual race. We have different races in the church, but we’re all spiritual Jews committed to the work!

Read: (Rev. 3:20) – Jesus Christ does His work through His church. Jesus stands at the door of every church waiting to be invited in, and to have a close relationship. If Jesus Christ seems far away from us, it is because we have chosen to keep Him at a distance. Sometimes we keep Him at a distance, or shut the door on Him because we are too busy with other things. Believers in Jesus Christ should never leave Jesus outside with the door shut. He’s waiting to embrace us with His love.

The Throne Room of Heaven

Read: (Rev. 4:1-5) - Here we have lightnings and thunderings – a symbol of spiritual lightning and thunder, or revelation – coming from the throne. Thunder and lightning get our attention (sometimes we are jolted by a blast of thunder, or startled by a streak of lightning). Spiritual thunder and lightning should have a similar effect. We are in the mist of a great spiritual storm inside God’s own church. The greatest physical storm ever is about to strike the earth! There is massive confusion in Almighty God’s church. God’s elect see the lightning and hear the thunder. Revelation doesn’t come from men – it comes from Almighty God’s Thone!

There are seven lamps before God’s throne, which are symbolized by seven Church eras – each one had God’s lamp.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spiritual Rain

Read: (Amos 7:14-15) – Amos was nobody (of royal status, or celebrity). Amos didn’t have any ancestry in the priesthood. He was just a farmer. But, he had God’s message and delivered it the way God said. We must realize who we are. We have to be like Amos. Amos spoke out fearlessly. The Book of Amos is like spiritual rain – The Holy Spirit bringing a message from Almighty God.

Read: (Amos 7:17) – How did Amos know that Amaziah’s wife was going to die as a harlot? How did he know specifically that his children were going to die by the sword? He didn’t receive this information by reading Holy Scriptures. Almighty God revealed these things to him. Those things were the prophecies of God’s wrath.

Read: (Amos 8:11) – Soon there will be a famine of the word. We must understand how special it is to receive revelation from Almighty God – The Lion of Judah. Not receiving any new revelation shows that God’s people are under a curse. Jesus Christ is not leading them.

Read: (Rev. 5:1-5) – God had promised John a revealing, and John had been flooded with revelation. Then suddenly it stopped – and John began to weep. There are churches of God today with no revelation, and they ought to be weeping! The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals. If you have new revelation, you know that the Lion of Judah is with you! That means there’s a lot of power behind you. We learn that if the Lion of Judah is with us, some amazing revelations are coming our way. We must know where they’re coming from. You can’t find any being in heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth that can give you revelation – but Almighty God!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Marks of the Ministry

Read: (2 Cor. 6:1-10)

“Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever.” (2 Peter 3:18).

Umbrella of Deception

Satan Fully Exposed

By The

Mystery of the Two Trees!

Does it appear, to any of us today, that evil and injustice seem to have an upper hand in the world? How does religion fit into a world that seems to be running rampant with constant evils? Why can’t everyone in this world today live together in peace? What have we learn, if anything at all, from the experiences of our biblical ancestors, those of Old Testament eras? Old Testament times were supposed to teach people from the wisdom of former generations. What went wrong? Has the Holy Bible totally become passé as the Infallible Authority, and guide for everyday life?

Nations are constantly rising against other nations! Earthquakes are happening in various places! Famines and troubles are everywhere around the world! Citizens are attacking their own governments! If these things are only the beginnings of sorrows, what’s going to happen next? Is there anything else left that, haven’t happen already?

“Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and a house divided against a house falls.” -Luke 11:17.

Lucifer Exposed By Two Trees

After Adam was created, the Lord God taught Adam knowledge about the two trees planted in the Garden of Eden. Later, Eve was presented to Adam.

THE TWO TREES SYMBOLIZE THE FOUNDATION of Adam and Eve’s existence. Adam and Eve lived in a paradise garden. They were growing and learning about life from the instructions of the Lord God. Adam and Eve were placed under the Lord God’s umbrella of protection. Can you remember what happened next?

The tree root system is the most important part of a tree, because the roots anchor the tree to the ground. Tree branches and fruit on a tree, receives its source of nourishment from the roots. Tree roots will determine how large a tree will grow. The number of branches supported by a tree, will show how healthy the roots of the tree are. A healthy tree root system is maintained by the quality of fertilizer that is used around the foundation of the roots. Ripe and healthy fruit is produced from a tree that has been properly fed and well nourished. Can unhealthy roots produce unblemished fruit?

The TWO TREES in the Book of Genesis are symbols used to describe Satan’s dictatorship over the whole world. SATAN WORKS TREMENDOUSLY HARD TO KILL KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE TWO TREES BECAUSE HE KNOWS THIS KNOWLEDGE WILL EXPOSE HIM!

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled. –2 Corinthians 10:3-6.

A stronghold is a satanic argument! The satanically energized argument is designed to destroy us, or block Almighty God’s kingdom purpose in our lives. One example, of a stronghold, is something as simple as having a false inner belief that the Lord God will not do the things that He has promised! A stronghold is any inner belief, or thought that tries to limit, or block us from being what the Lord God created us to be! These strongholds are pulled down by The Power of the Holy Spirit, and BY RENEWING OUR MINDS WITH THE WORD OF GOD!!!

Unbelievers, who are already bound by strongholds, do only what they know how to do. And, their only purpose is to try and deceive the minds of believers! Because, they have already been deceived themselves! So, how can Satan cast out Satan! (Matthew 12:25-26).

The spiritual mind, and the spiritual things of Almighty God, is what “strongholds” have no REAL operating power over. This reality, and truth will make all attempts of strongholds useless, but even that fact will not stop them. Unbelievers, already bound by strongholds, who haven’t made any efforts to change; have already been given over to their very “own way of thinking”. Almighty God is the only someone who can change their dilemma. I can’t change it! You can’t change it! The Holy Spirit of God is the only one who can change it! They themselves are unable to change. (Romans 1:28).

“Blessed is he who blesses you, And cursed is he who curses you.” -Numbers 24:9.

Some unbelievers are already locked in “spiritual death”, in the exact same way that Adam and Eve was! Only the hand of Almighty God, moving in their lives, can save them! The Word of God has already told us that some of these people (unbelievers) will still have hardened hearts in the midst of world events unfolding and surrounding them. They will continue in their self-motivated efforts, and will not turn to the Living God for help. Lucifer, now called Satan, the devil, is just that angry with believers in Jesus Christ! And Satan will continue, by any means necessary, to attack believers in Jesus Christ! The Enemy seeks to destroy our testimony. (1 Peter 5:8).

I was watching television the other night, when I heard a woman say, “I don’t know why I have a strong urge to drink!” The woman was a wife, and mother with young children. The story highlighted her drinking problem, which was destroying her family. And this is how Satan operates. Satan puts “strongholds” on families. The family unit is a part of Almighty God. Remember in earlier posts when I defined the word God, as meaning FAMILY. As born again believers, we are born into the family of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit!

That is why it is absolutely important for believers, through the Blood of Jesus Christ, to declare war on the principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this age, the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. And put on the full armor of Almighty God, and boldly stand through the power in the Blood of Jesus Christ! It is only then, by using the weapons of praise, worship, prayer, and intercession that we can cause the Enemy to “scurry”. The same way I saw him scurry, during my testimony on my vision of the dark “pit’. I saw the Enemy “scurrying” and trying to run away from me! But, he was bound to a dead tree! As I think about my vision again, it seemed, as if Satan was bound, by the “stronghold” of his own tree!

A powerful testimony about “human nature” can be found in the Old Testament, when Moses was trying to deliver the Word of God, to the Pharaoh of Egypt! I’m sure we all remember how that story ended. Not, the Hollywood versions of the story. The real story “as it is written” in the Book of Exodus! If we read the Holy Bible, with a spiritual (the part of the mind targeted by strongholds) mind, we will find some events during Moses era, similar to those events that will take place, as described by John in the Book of Revelation! Some of those events are happening in our era right now, today. The Book of Revelation was written for our generation!

The Book of Revelation is about Jesus Christ complete Victory at the Cross. And not about Satan’s power. And we, as true believers in the Word of God, have that same Victory through the Blood of Jesus when we wage spiritual warfare using our prayers, praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, according to Ephesians 6:10-20. This is why National Day of Prayer is so important for all believers! There is greater power in Unity! (Ephesians 4:1-6). If we are divided, we are more easily accessible, and open to the Enemy’s spiritual attacks! Prayer groups are a mighty force to be reckoned with when it comes to spiritual warfare in the invisible spiritual realm. We may not be able to see what’s going on, in that part of God’s universe, but that does not mean that the invisible realm don’t exist! We can’t see air either, but we can feel it, and see its affects after a powerful storm. This is how Satan and his demonic forces operate. We can’t see them, but we can sometimes feel their presence, and we see the evil effects they have on human lives!

Knowing the complete truth about Satan is paramount for your “soul” survival in this world. Especially now! Someone has already tried to access my email account, and gain access to all of my files. The Enemy is relentless and never gives up! My task is almost complete. Then I will be ready for the next challenge to overcome! Attacks from the spiritual Enemy, makes me feel very special! The more attacks I get, the more special I feel. And I give all the Glory and the Praise to my Lord, Jesus Christ! He’s Awesome dear brother’s and sister’s. And He’s worthy to be Praised! Praise Him everyday, and walk in His Power! I can’t wait to see all of you at Heaven’s Golden Gate on that Great Day! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Almighty God, is not a God who is easily mocked! Our Heavenly Father wants us to know Him, not just only know about Him! He is the only One true all-powerful Living God! Yahweh-Jehovah! Jehovah-Elohim! Jehovah-Elyon! El-Shaddai! Jehovah-Jireh! Jehovah-Repheka! Jehovah-Tsidqenu! Jehovah-Tsebaoth! Jehovah-Nissi! Jehovah-Shalom! Jehovah-Shamah!



Note: Warring in the “spirit” is no small task. And you must be fully trained to do so. Many churches have programs that are devoted to training individuals in prayer groups, or teams. Spiritual Warfare must be done according to the exact Word of Almighty God.

“Lord, my heart is not haughty, Nor my eyes lofty. Neither do I concern myself with great matters, Nor with things too profound for me.”  -Psalm 131:1.

Things I Saw

I saw a massive Book that was open. It was placed on something like a pulpit podium, or it could have been some type of throne. There was a vast area of darkness surrounding this Big Book. And the pages, of this Big Book, appeared to be glowing like a bright shining light, in this vast area of darkness. I was amazed at how this Big Book’s pages were covered, in something that looked like crystal thin ice. And, I could see writing on the Big Book’s crystal like pages. I also noticed several icicles hanging from the outside edges of this Big Book. The icicles were of various sizes in length and thickness. Some icicles were of enormous size, in their length and thickness, compared to other icicles that were shorter and thin. But, none of the larger icicles were greater in size than this Big Book. The enormous icicles were small compared to the greatness of the Big Book. It seemed to me, as if someone had poured a clear liquid like substance over the Big Book, and the clear liquid turned into crystallized ice!

Women In The Church

"...women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing, but, which is proper for women professing godliness, with good looks. Let a woman learn in silence with all submission. And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence." -1 Timothy 2:9-12.


The date is recorded as being about A.D. 64. Timothy was a young pastor leading the church at Ephesus (1 Timothy 1:3). Ephesus was called the Loveless Church (Rev. 2:1-7). The church had a Commendation: rejecting evil, perseveres, has patience. Criticism: Love for Christ no longer fervent. Instruction: Do the works you did at first. Promise: The tree of life. But, Paul is documented as the author of 1Timothy, 2 Timothy, and Titus.

I have been asked my opinion on the following scripture: 1 Timothy 2:11-12. After reading this scripture, my first impression is that women are to honor (respect) the man, because God placed the man in leadership of the woman. And by respecting him she should not dress inappropriate, or interrupt him when he is speaking. When more than one person is trying to talk at the same time, which one is listening? However, the serpent interposed God’s divine order, and caused a different set of circumstances to occur. I have devoted a lot of attention to this topic in my book. The controversy surrounding these events motivated me to learn the reasons as to why. But, of course we already know the main reason why. Whenever there is controversy, we can be certain that Satan is in its midst (central, center, focus, inter-medium, interposition, insinuation, throw in a wedge, infiltrate, a go-between, or get between)!

(v.11) Let a woman LEARN in silence...

Thought: If one is not listening, one cannot learn anything.

(v. 12) ...I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority OVER a man

Thought: The woman is not to lead, or direct a man with authority. The man has authority over the woman, and Almighty God’s has complete Authority over both the man, and the woman.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Paul was also saying that Christian women should dress with modesty. However, He was not preaching against nice clothes, or jewelry. The main idea was for women to not be like women of the world, whose total emphasis is on the exterior. {We all know how God looks at what's in a person's heart instead.}

But the Lord said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart." -1 Samuel 16:7.

Also, I believe that this scripture is a good example of a previous post that I wrote about regarding how the true meaning of some scriptures have a tendency to be lost during several translations and revisions, in order to simplify the Word of God. But, God’s word can never be altered. Because, He has already told us that His thoughts are not our thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8-9). And, I have read a lot of vast controversy concerning why some people do not believe the Holy Bible to be the true Word of God, simply because of this very reason: the wording in some scriptures has been altered. And, even the disciples made comments about strange doctrines being created.

However, this is what I have read in other biblical versions/sources:

NKJV: Let a woman learn… I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.

CEV: …and they should learn by being quiet and paying attention. They should be silent and not be allowed to teach or to tell men what to do.

KJV: Let the woman learn in silence… But I suffer not a women to teach, nor usurp authority over a men, but to be in silence.

GW: A woman must learn in silence, in keeping with her position. I don’t allow a woman to teach or to have authority over a man. Instead, she should be quiet. (God’s Word)

GOD’S WORD is a copyrighted work of God’s Word to the Nations Bible Society. Quotations are used by permission.

NIV: A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent.

TNIV: A woman should learn in quietness and full submission. I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet.

Jewish: Interesting and totally different version. But, need permission from publisher to post. So, perhaps if you already have a Complete Jewish Bible, you can review its version.

Women’s Power: Josephus - The Complete Works: Take care, especially in your battles, that no woman use the habit of a man, nor man the garment of a woman. This was the form of political government which was left us by Moses. Antiq. 4.843 (301). …let not the testimony of women be admitted, on account of the levity and boldness of their sex… Antiq. of the Jews, 4.8.15 (219).

~~~~~~~~~~~~

According to my New Spirit Filled Life Bible: Kingdom Equipping Through the Power of the Word (NKJV) –

Women should observe a proper sense of modesty, free from vanity and worldly display, at all times, but especially in public worship. A godly woman’s attractiveness is her character, not her costly clothing. See 1 Pet. 3:3-4.

Paul exhorts women to be disciples and to maintain a conduct that would not discredit the church. The prohibition of v. 12 refers to the authoritative office of apostolic teacher of the church. It does not forbid women to educate, proclaim truth, or exhort (prophesy).

See: Acts 2:17; 18:26; 21:9; 1 Cor. 11:5; Phil. 4:3; 2 Tim. 1:5; 3:14, 15: Titus 2:3-5.

Kingdom Dynamics: v.11 =1 Tim. 6:15; 1 Cor. 9:17.

v. 12 = 1 Cor. 15:10; 1 Cor. 7:25; Col. 1:25.

Truth-In-Action: Letting the Life of the Holy Spirit Bring Faith’s Works Alive in You!

Truth > Timothy teaches growing in godliness. God’s Word instructs in godly conduct, which comes from godly attitudes in life and worship. If the heart is tuned to God, modesty and acceptable worship will result. God has defined godliness in the example of the Lord Jesus Christ, and He sent the Holy Spirit to conform us to His image.

Action > Dress with appropriate modesty. Emphasize internal beauty.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

According to my Study Bible: Spirit Filled Life (NKJV) -

Paul was trying to motivate women to be true disciples of Jesus Christ and did not say that they could not teach, preach, minister, or prophesy. But, women are not to occupy the authority of a man. God appointed man as head of the family, and the man is responsible to serve his wife in love, and be in submission to God. Paul was not teaching that man, (in this case Adam) is spiritually, morally, or intellectually better than the woman. But he is her superior in God's order of things. Almighty God > Man > Woman > Children. When Eve stepped outside the umbrella of protection of being subordinate to Adam, she allowed herself to be deceived through spiritual deception.

This is very interesting, because in the last vision that I had, a (shadowy figure) was standing under an umbrella (canopy) like tree. The tree was full of small green fruit. And this fruit was glowing in the darkness under the umbrella like tree. So, it appears now that if Eve stepped outside the umbrella of protection of Adam, she placed herself "spiritually" under the umbrella (canopy) of the serpent. This would perhaps explain why Adam was allowed to be deceived too. Because Adam already knew about God's instruction. Yet, Adam allowed himself to be deceived instead of taking a firm stand and resist the serpent. I was thinking that Adam was so in love with his wife, Eve, that he simply wanted to please her. That's why he ate the fruit too. But, if Eve's actions of leaving the umbrella protection of Adam, and allowing herself to be placed under the umbrella of the serpent, the deception was sealed through Eve's simple act of not remaining under the umbrella of Adam's protection. Wow, that's great stuff. I'll have to pray about that one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Tree of Life, is God's umbrella (canopy) of protection. That other tree was the serpent's umbrella (canopy) of deception! This brings even more clarity to my vision.

I realize I got off the topic of discussion, but I have just had another revelation about something. And, I need to pray about it, before I discuss it further. So, this will be continued later...

Interpolation

It has been brought to my attention that some people are intentionally trying to insert confusion into my spiritual journey, as I share it with the world. But, I’m not concerned about this because by now we are fully aware where confusion comes from. And my message is for the entire world, not just for a select individual or group of individuals. I made that fact perfectly known from the beginning, when I made it known why I was sharing these personal experiences. And, if I had not been told to do so, there are certainly other things that I could be enjoying in my life right now. But, because I have chosen to be obedient, I am diligently doing exactly what I have been told to do. (Greater is He who is in me, than he who is in the world). Also, I’m still keeping Jonah’s experiences in my files. And the other fact that he who does not love does not know God, for God is love. And, since God loves us, we ought to love one another!

They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. We are of God. He who knows God hears us, he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. –1 John 4:5-6.

I am not trying to teach anyone anything. God already knows there are enough teachers in this world. But, are they all teaching the true Word of God? If you have children, wouldn’t you want to teach your children right from wrong? I’m a child of Almighty God. My Father teaches me everything that I need to learn. I listen to my Father, and the Holy Spirit teaches!

“Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with fools which have not profited those who have been occupied with them.” -Hebrews 13:9.

And, if anyone sees any Holy Spirit teachings through me, Praise the Lord! God is good to us all the time! That’s all I know to say about that subject. Because, as one individual has already previously pointed out to me, I’m only writing about what has been written about for centuries. So, what’s different? I was born into this world! My Father knew me before He formed me in my mother’s womb. And, I’m sharing personal experiences that are unique to my own spiritual journey in this world. If anyone was present at my birth, and traveled along with me on my journey, seen the things that I have seen, heard the things that I have heard, experienced the same things that I have experienced, then perhaps they think they know more about me than my Father do? If anyone wants to become a part of my personal experiences, let me know. I’ll pray to my Father, and get back to you with an answer as soon as possible. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:8).

My message is for those who may have difficulties understanding the Word of Almighty God, and do not understand why troubles have hit this world more intensely than ever before, and these troubles will rapidly increase before they decrease! Because, the Word of God has said, “Thus they have loved to wander, they have not restrained their feet. Therefore the Lord does not accept them, He will remember their iniquity now, and punish their sins.” (Jeremiah 14:10). I will not be moved during my journey. I am still learning even more during this journey, than I have previously known myself. That is why it’s an exciting journey for me. So, I’m also learning right along with most of you, who are following me on this journey. God’s work is awesome in the lives of His people.

I have worked in various ministries for about seven years. I have been spiritually taken into the valley, through the fires, and the floods of life, and spiritually battered into shape. The Lord has shown me things that I would not have believed myself, if the Lord had not revealed those things to me. This is the main reason, why it’s so important for us to solely rely on teachings that come from the Holy Spirit of God! There are ministers in this world today, who are teaching the true Word of God, and there are also, other ministers who are teaching other doctrines! And this fact was a difficult revelation of truth for me at first, until I experienced its reality. And that reality was: Satan has his own ministers in the church too! After, I got past that bit of “shock into reality”; I was able to move on to other revelations. It’s been quite an interesting spiritual journey for me. And, by the time that I think I’m recovered, from the first realizations, I’m totally surprised at the next one. And it continues to get even more interesting after that.

At one point in time, I had even asked the Lord, “Lord, these things are so simple to understand. How come people are not getting it, or they are not understanding these things.” It truly amazed me how something that was so simple to understand, was a tremendous convolution of thinking instead. And, the Lord’s revelation to me was even more amazing! I was completely struck down with AWE! I also learned that it is not the people, who sometimes attack us: this is not the reality of the situation. The true reality is: it is the “spirit” that is in the person, operating in a person’s life. (Matthew 12:43-45). And this person may not even be aware of it! Almighty God will directly deal with the people of that nature. He has already warned us, “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood…” (Ephesians 6:12).

The reality of that fact gives another meaning to Jesus words, when He said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.” (Luke 23:34). My first thought concerning this, before I was called out of this world, ‘How can someone not know what he, or she is doing?’ Especially when it’s so obvious to see, and observe what they’re doing. But, the Lord showed me that I had been seeing things from a carnal (worldly) perspective. That is to say, I was observing life from a worldly point of view. Also, that knowledge began to increase my awareness of the word fear (false evidence appearing real).

So, the next time, if someone should attack you, and you don’t understand why; first, think about reasons of perhaps why they are attacking you. Sincerely pray for understanding about such an occurrence. And you will be amazed at the reason why someone would attack you. And every situation is different. There are no attacks based on the same set of circumstances. Each attack is unique to its very own particular type of issues. For example, in my own situation or set of circumstances, I have chosen to obey the will of God, and His plans for my life, and be obedient to His will. If anybody should ever ask, where I’m going, “I’m heaven bound!” I want to receive my crown! I am fighting the good fight, I’m trying to make it to the finish line, and I’m keeping the FAITH!

Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing. –2 Timothy 4:8.

I have already been equipped,

 and prepared for the outcome of my decision.

We have been told that these attacks will indeed come. It should be no surprise to us. I have been directly attacked by those principalities, and hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places that’s described in Ephesians 6:12. I am not moved, delayed, nor distracted by something that has already been dealt with, and defeated at the Cross. And when those “spiritual” attacks miserably failed, the evil demonic “spiritual” plans have changed strategies from inside direct attack, and trying to attack from the outside. Using whatever avenues already available to them, or other sources that are more easily controlled. I recognize spiritual deceptions of Doubt, Discouragement, Diversion, Defeat, and Delay! I’m aware of the powerful spiritual warfare that is going on, and taking place in this world right now. Almighty God has His own “spiritual” warriors dealing with the invisible spiritual realm. Those things are hidden from the eyes of a physical and material world! There are people, who have been placed within the church of Almighty God to deal with such things. And these people know who they are. And they are well equipped to carry out God’s plans! However, when we sincerely seek understanding about such things, those things can be revealed to us. And, this is not something that is easily understood from the perspective of a worldly mind. It is the things that are unseen in the spiritual realm that directly affects the things we can see in a physical and material world! Our God is an Awesome God – He truly Reigns!

As I have previously written, if there is anything, that you are not understanding about the Word of God, after you have read it, and if your Pastor has not helped you to fully understand God’s Word, then your only other alternative is to earnestly pray for divine guidance and instruction from the Holy Spirit. However, when you receive direct knowledge about spiritual things from the Holy Spirit of Almighty God, be prepared for a rude awakening in your life, and about your life!
