FOUR strange days

 

Ecclesiastes 7:11-12

King James Version

11 Wisdom is good with an inheritance: 

and by it there is profit to them that see the sun.

12 For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: 

but the excellency of knowledge is, 

that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.

I normally write one post a day.

Some days, up to seven articles.

How come no new material was forthcoming?

That never happened before.

No new article written in four days.

EXCEPT for the RAPTURE post.

Now, I know why.

SPIRIT wants us to know the URGENCY of the RAPTURE.

He wanted me to add more scenarios.

JESUS wants us to be ready.

Matthew 24:44

King James Version

44 Therefore be ye also ready: 

for in such an hour as ye think not 

the Son of man cometh.

That, in itself, was SPIRIT's statement.

The RAPTURE article, and NO other article.

At least, for the past four days.

The times are TRULY URGENT.

We are called to get right with GOD now.

We must seek GOD.

We must love Him.

We must be faithful to Him.

We must believe in His Son, JESUS.

We must listen to the HOLY SPIRIT.

We must repent.

We must believe the gospel.

We must become born again.

We must drop anything that is not of GOD.

We must accept our sinfulness.

We must refrain from all forms of wickedness.

We must stop being worldly.

We are in the LAST days.

We are being given more than enough warnings.

The WHOLE BIBLE is a warning.

The WHOLE BIBLE tells us of GOD's love.

The WHOLE BIBLE tells us of GOD's mercy.

GOD doesn't want anyone to perish.

2 Peter 3:9-10

King James Version

9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, 

as some men count slackness; 

but is longsuffering to us-ward, 

not willing that any should perish, 

but that all should come to repentance.

10 But the day of the Lord will come 

as a thief in the night; 

in the which the heavens shall pass away 

with a great noise, 

and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, 

the earth also and the works that are therein 

shall be burned up.

JESUS said the "time is fulfilled" and "the kingdom of God is at hand".

Mark 1:15

King James Version

15 And saying, 

The time is fulfilled, 

and the kingdom of God is at hand: 

repent ye, 

and believe the gospel.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, unbelievers will say.

"Jesus said that 2,000 years ago."

"It's already 2023, soon it will be 2024."

"When is that coming he's talking about?"

So, you continue partying.

But don't be too hasty to mock.

GOD is MASTER of TIME.

2 Peter 3:8

King James Version

8 But, beloved, 

be not ignorant of this one thing, 

that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, 

and a thousand years as one day.

Also, your scoffing has been prophesied.

2 Peter 3:3-4

King James Version

3 Knowing this first, 

that there shall come in the last days scoffers, 

walking after their own lusts,

4 And saying, 

Where is the promise of his coming? 

for since the fathers fell asleep, 

all things continue as they were 

from the beginning of the creation.

Everything about who we are has been prophesied.

How we will be in the last days -- how we think, what we will say, what we will do, have all been prophesied.

That's what makes the Bible remarkable.

We've been mapped out by GOD.

It's His Book.

He knows us.

How can He not?

He created us all.

Sometimes, I really find that ticklish about you.

That you keep looking everywhere for answers.

When GOD's right there in your heart, hello...

We are in the last days.

Look at how wicked, adulterous, vicious, murderous, and demonic the world is, and has been.

Truly a sign of the times.

Isaiah 5:20-23

King James Version

20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; 

that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; 

that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, 

and prudent in their own sight!

22 Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, 

and men of strength to mingle strong drink:

23 Which justify the wicked for reward, 

and take away the righteousness of the righteous 

from him!

I must write what JESUS wants written.

So, I just keep writing, and sharing, every single day.

I must tell you the HOLY SPIRIT's reproof.

What kind of workman would I be, if I didn't warn you?

I wait on the LORD every single moment.

I rely on His WORD.

Psalm 130:5-6

King James Version

5 I wait for the Lord, 

my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

6 My soul waiteth for the Lord 

more than they that watch for the morning: 

I say, more than they that watch 

for the morning.

Every day is GRACE.

We can't count our blessings enough.

Be grateful for all the warnings given.

You are loved.

If you weren't loved, why would GOD care to warn you?

Why would He even have sent His Son to save you?

He gave us Scripture to tell you of His ways, and our ways.

He gave us Scripture, that we might be guided.

He gave us SPIRIT, that we may be taught.

Don't test GOD.

Don't mock Him.

LOVE Him.

How to REALLY LOVE GOD

 

Psalm 1:1-3

King James Version

1 Blessed is the man 

that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, 

nor standeth in the way of sinners, 

nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; 

and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, 

that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; 

his leaf also shall not wither; 

and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Do you love GOD?

What are your ways of showing it?

What pleases the LORD?

As born again, this much I know.

All based on Scripture, of course.

Believe in His Son, JESUS.

Be a true born again.

Obey GOD's commandments.

Pray to know GOD's will.

Seek no other god, but GOD.

Follow JESUS.

Believe in the HOLY SPIRIT.

Love others.

Carry your cross.

Know the Bible.

Live by it.

Focus on JESUS; not the world.

Believe in the prophecies.

Take the path of holiness.

Be perfect.

These 15 things have been my blog subjects since GOD made me born again in 2019.

SPIRIT inspired me to write these blogs.

That's tons of material on GOD's WORD.

I live by Scripture.

I live and breathe Scripture.

I believe in Scripture.

GOD's WORD feeds me.

What feeds you?

What keeps your soul alive?

What keeps you afloat?

I can only turn to SPIRIT and Scripture.

Both sustain me in these strange days.

It will get stranger.

But JESUS assures us:

Matthew 24:35

King James Version

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, 

but my words shall not pass away.

The day you come to know GOD's laws, you will forever be grateful.

Never will you want to stray from His commnads.

You will want to remain on the path, walking with SPIRIT.

You will be made aware of your sins, and will seek forgiveness.

You will not want to walk, as the world walks.

You will want to be perfect, as JESUS wants us to be.

Only in JESUS do we have a direction.

How can one not love the One who gave up His life for us?

How can one not love the Master who showed how we must live?

How can one not love the Son who wants to save a place for us in His Father's mansion?

It is a foolish man who will want to keep walking about senselessly.

It is a foolish man who'd rather have eternal fire, than eternal life.

It is a foolish man who refuses to be saved by the LORD.

Very foolish, indeed.

Lastly, JESUS commands:

Mark 12:30

King James Version

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.

On LOVING GOD

NO vested interest

 

Matthew 5:8

King James Version

8 Blessed are the pure in heart: 

for they shall see God.

As I share Scripture with you, I have no vested interest.

As born again, I only accomplish what SPIRIT wants.

That we be born again, and know GOD's WORD.

That we believe in JESUS.

That we live by the Bible.

That we love GOD.

But first, what is vested interest?

Here are some definitions:

"a special concern or stake in maintaining or influencing a condition, arrangement, or action especially for selfish ends"

-- Merriam-Webster

"a personal stake or involvement in an undertaking or state of affairs, especially one with an expectation of financial gain"

-- Google

By ourselves, we have no power.

All power comes from GOD.

Which He gave to JESUS.

Only through JESUS can we do anything.

As these verses show:

Matthew 28:18

King James Version

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, 

saying, 

All power is given unto me 

in heaven and in earth.

John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.

John 17:1-3

King James Version

17 These words spake Jesus, 

and lifted up his eyes to heaven, 

and said, 

Father, the hour is come; 

glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, 

that he should give eternal life 

to as many as thou hast given him.

3 And this is life eternal, 

that they might know thee the only true God, 

and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.

Ephesians 2:8-9

King James Version

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; 

and that not of yourselves: 

it is the gift of God:

9 Not of works, 

lest any man should boast.

Colossians 2:8-10

King James Version

8 Beware lest any man spoil you 

through philosophy and vain deceit, 

after the tradition of men, 

after the rudiments of the world, 

and not after Christ.

9 For in him dwelleth 

all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

10 And ye are complete in him, 

which is the head of all principality and power:

Let us not be carried away.

With pride, vanity, illusion, delusion, and desires.

Let not the enemy's twisted works nest upon us.

Let JESUS govern our souls.

Now and forever.

That we may be worthy when He returns.

1 Thessalonians 5:23

King James Version

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; 

and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body 

be preserved blameless 

unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Which can happen any moment.

Believers trust JESUS

 

Job 22:23

King James Version

23 If thou return to the Almighty, 

thou shalt be built up, 

thou shalt put away iniquity 

far from thy tabernacles.

Worried how the world's turning out to be?

Nervous about what the elites plan?

Believers in JESUS are not afraid.

We trust the LORD completely.

We know His ways.

We know His will.

We know His power.

Matthew 28:18-19

King James Version

18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, 

All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

Further, ALL have been prophesied.

Focus, instead, on the verses here.

As well as the supporting articles below.

TRUST that the LORD JESUS looks after His own.

Witness the POWER of JESUS in SEVEN sets of verses:

Luke 12:4-5

King James Version

4 And I say unto you my friends, 

Be not afraid of them that kill the body, 

and after that have no more that they can do.

5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: 

Fear him, 

which after he hath killed 

hath power to cast into hell; 

yea, I say unto you, 

Fear him.

Revelation 1:18

King James Version

18 I am he that liveth, 

and was dead; 

and, behold, 

I am alive for evermore, 

Amen; 

and have the keys of hell and of death.

John 14:6

King James Version

6 Jesus saith unto him, 

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

no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

John 16:33

King James Version

33 These things I have spoken unto you, 

that in me ye might have peace. 

In the world ye shall have tribulation: 

but be of good cheer; 

I have overcome the world.

Acts 4:12

King James Version

12 Neither is there salvation in any other: 

for there is none other name under heaven 

given among men, 

whereby we must be saved.

Colossians 2:8-10

King James Version

8 Beware lest any man spoil you 

through philosophy and vain deceit, 

after the tradition of men, 

after the rudiments of the world, 

and not after Christ.

9 For in him dwelleth 

all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

10 And ye are complete in him, 

which is the head of all principality and power:

Colossians 3:1-2

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ, 

seek those things which are above, 

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, 

not on things on the earth.

LIFE's got PURPOSE

 

Galatians 5:16

King James Version

16 This I say then, 

Walk in the Spirit, 

and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

You wouldn't know it, till you become born again.

That life has a clear purpose.

That life is worth living.

That there's a GOD you can trust.

That His truth will sustain you.

That you will be given work, that has value to others.

That there's no other book that matters, but the Bible.

That at any given moment, believers can meet JESUS up in the air.

And be forever with Him.

You wouldn't know all these, till you become born again.

Who decides when you'll become born again?

Only GOD has such power.

When does one become born again?

When your heart is true with GOD.

When you surrender to His knowledge.

When you admit you're lost, stupefied.

When you've run out of answers.

That's when you seek the heavens.

And cry your heart out, for an answer.

That's all GOD's waiting for.

The humbled heart.

The heart that ran out of answers.

The heart that can't piece things together.

The heart that wants to get things right.

The heart that wants ultimate answers.

The heart that seeks absolute truth.

When you're all that, GOD knows you're ready.

As He did with me, 44 months ago.

It's been quite a journey.

All the pieces of your life fit.

Once GOD makes you born again.

You begin to understand the whys.

And the wherefores.

All become clear.

All become magnificent.

All lead to JESUS.

Each day becomes an exciting journey.

You never know where SPIRIT will take you.

What lesson is in store for you.

The connections He will establish for you.

And all you have to do is have an open heart.

All the while, leaving your ego at the door.

Know nothing, and you will be given everything.

Now, I'm not talking about worldly wealth.

After 73 blogs, and hundreds of posts, SPIRIT had me figure that out.

It's never about the money.

It's always about GOD.

A desire to know Him.

To serve Him.

To serve others.

All, according to His will.

Understanding Scripture becomes simple.

SPIRIT sees to that.

Any question can be answered by the Bible.

SPIRIT will teach you what to ask.

What to look for.

Where to look.

All becomes clear.

Then you see the seamless whole of your life.

Oh, so that's why GOD gave me my family.

Oh, so that's why my parents are that way.

Oh, so that's why my siblings are the way they are.

Oh, so that's why my life seems tattered.

Oh, so that's why all the odd jobs.

Oh, so that's why I didn't get that job.

Oh, so that's why I ran out of money.

Oh, so that's why the world is the way it is.

Oh, so that's why I married this person.

Oh, so that's why I didn't marry.

The secret mysteries of your heart will be laid out.

No question will be left unanswered.

All because you believe in JESUS.

All because you pray to Him for guidance.

All because you love GOD.

All because you listen to the HOLY SPIRIT.

All because you've surrendered.

It's really all very simple.

Just know nothing.

Don't even pretend.

Just accept you know nothing.

For, we really don't.

Education won't do it.

It's but a piece to the puzzle.

The BIBLE has ALL the answers.

And it's been sitting there all this time.

Lots of versions of it.

Waiting for you to come around.

Knowing one day, you will.

On a day appointed by GOD.

He will even lead you to the version that's right for you.

He will let you make your mistakes.

He will wait for that surrender.

We surrender when we've run out of answers.

When what used to work, don't anymore.

When nothing makes sense anymore.

When you're totally stumped.

When you're totally broke.

When you're totally lost.

GOD waits for that human humbling.

He waits for that humbled heart.

The one that cries for an answer.

The one that even gets mad, or frustrated.

He knows the cloud will break.

The rain will fall.

Those tears will demand an answer.

When that day comes, GOD will be there.

Actually, He's always been there.

He's everywhere.

But we were nowhere.

READY for the LORD now?

Stumped?

Stupefied?

Sick of sin?

GOD waits for you.

All you have to do is cry your heart out.

He will dry your tears.

And show you a better tomorrow.

The only bright tomorrow there is.
