We need to be ready. We need to understand that our physical body is not important ... our identity, that lives on for eternity, is in our spirit man. Instead of feeling terror along with the rest of the population as things that must happen come to pass .... we should instead be aware and truly know that our time in eternity has finally arrived! We will soon be free to live on with Jesus, no longer encumbered by earthly limitations.
Jesus wants us to be prepared and focused on Him. There needs to be a point of recognition .. a fail-safe ... a realization that this is not our end but only our beginning. We need to give our fears to Jesus and trust totally in Him. As we have been spending time with Him, He has been preparing us and telling us what will be.
This will be a sign to all that Jesus has truly prepared His people. He has set us aside and prepared us. Jesus is with us! When the rest of the world goes into shock ... we will have Peace! Jesus' angels are stationed, even now, in preparation of that hour. But we all must be fully conscious and aware that Jesus is, indeed, living within us and beside us! Psalm 91 must resonate in us, with every beat of our hearts.
Memorize these verses. Let the knowledge and power take root deep within our spirits. That we will be able to stand tall and strong when terror falls upon the Earth ... for our redemption, at long last, will have arrived! We Will TRUST In JESUS and Not Be Afraid!
Psalm 91 (NKJV) Safety of Abiding in the Presence of God
91:1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”
3 Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
4 He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
5 You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
6 Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
7 A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
8 Only with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
10 No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
11 For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
12 In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13 You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
14 “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
15 He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation.”

WE are the CHURCH! Not a Building!
It is important that we have a living relationship with God! Why do we think we need a church building to draw closer to the Lord? WE are the church! Saved by Grace and not by works that any man may boast! Saved Christians have the Holy Spirit living inside ... He will direct your paths. I am not saying you should not fellowship with other believers. Just please do not wait upon the 'perfect church' to draw closer and walk with Him! Jesus calls you but you do not hear. He wants to have times of fellowship with you. He loves you with an Everlasting Love that we cannot fathom the depth of! Please, set some time aside. Worship the Lord and listen for His still small voice ... you will hear Him in your spirit if you seek Him with all your heart, mind, soul and strength! He who began a good work in you WILL BE FAITHFUL TO COMPLETE IT! (Phil 1:6) Believe and do YOUR part! Spend time with Jesus!
Let us walk every day in Love and the Peace that passes all understanding. If/When things happen that your flesh wants to react negatively to ... give it to the Lord ... watch your words / guard your heart / surrender to Him and you will not grab on to this negativity!
We are instead to LOVE as Jesus loves. To Forgive as Jesus forgives. We are to learn to be like Christ in all things. Daily making a choice to walk with Him on the pathways He has set for each of us. My tomorrows are as yesterdays to God! He has already been there so I should listen to Him and obey what He tells me. If you exercise Free Will you can walk out of the will of God for your life. You can decide not to do what you know in your heart you should do. Do not blame God if you go your own way and things don't work out as you had expected.
On Saturday, Holy Spirit gave me the following scriptures as my rhema words.
FRIENDS:
Proverbs 18:24 (NKJV)
REVENGE:
Luke 9:52-56 (NKJV)
52 and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him. 53 But they did not receive Him, because His face was set for the journey to Jerusalem. 54 And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?”
55 But He turned and rebuked them, and said, “You do not know what manner of spirit you are of. 56 For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men’s lives but to save them.” And they went to another village.
May you be blessed by these words and may a hunger in your heart to hear Jesus grow so that you don't want to ignore Him any longer!
Peace be unto you!
Anna

Romans 12:19 (NKJV)
Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.
On Saturday, Holy Spirit gave me the following scriptures as my rhema words.
FRIENDS:
Proverbs 18:24 (NKJV)
24 A man who has friends must himself be friendly,
But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
REVENGE:
2 Thessalonians 1:5-8 (NKJV)
5 which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer; 6 since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, 7 and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. REVENGE:
Luke 9:52-56 (NKJV)
52 and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him. 53 But they did not receive Him, because His face was set for the journey to Jerusalem. 54 And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, “Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?”

May you be blessed by these words and may a hunger in your heart to hear Jesus grow so that you don't want to ignore Him any longer!
Peace be unto you!

Are You Being Called?
I want to share with you this message that God has laid on my heart. My spirit bears witness that there are others called to this ministry.
Abba, Father, please touch your children and let them feel the quickening to join the ranks in the front lines of this spiritual battle for souls. I know we are called to pray for many things, but especially for your MERCY to flow to the people and their households as you place them so lovingly on our hearts. I pray your anointing, wisdom and protection over each one of my sisters and brothers: especially those that answer this call to arms. I willingly offer my time, should You require it, to help train them in the things you have so patiently been teaching me. I ask also for other watchmen to contact me, as you lead them, to strengthen the front lines as you direct. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen!
7 Ways to Know God Is Calling You
For more than two years now, He has been training me in the wilderness. It has taken time, and believe me ... I am and will continue to be taught - to operate in Spirit-empowered prayer. This is not for the faint of heart. It is sometimes quiet and you may wonder if you have missed the mark. You might find yourself thinking 'Perhaps this isn't really my calling.' Trust me, that is a lie from the enemy! The devil would like nothing better than to discourage you from this anointed call. As a matter of fact, he will predictably send demons speaking lies, condemnation and sometimes bringing hindering circumstances in their attempts to discourage you.
You have to hold on tight to God. Do not give up. It's like being a watchman on a wall when nothing is happening sometimes. But you stay on that wall. Don't abandon your post. Stay alert and learn to persevere. When Holy Spirit is ready ... you must be ready! Holy Spirit will fill you and give you power as on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2). Your prayers will pack a powerful punch as they hit their target!.
Calling Forth the "Anna Company" (See Luke 2:36-38) Anna's primary prophetic ministry was her life of prayer, which helped prepare the way for the coming of the Messiah. As it was in the first coming of Jesus, so it will be before the second coming—gifted, consecrated, prophetic intercessors will lay hold of the purposes of God.
Praying in the Spirit Through the Gift of Tongues
Praying in tongues is the most powerful prayer -- especially when we are asking God for Mercy -- that we can do. Since we do not always know what to pray or how to say it, yielding to Holy Spirit allows the need to be taken before the Lord correctly: His Will - His Way - By His Spirit! When I allow Holy Spirit to lead in my prayer time, my spirit yielded totally to Him, I know I am in the presence of the Lord and my prayers ARE being heard! They are either being acted upon and answered now or stored up to be used later ... in God's timing!
Ezekiel 22:30

[Quote] When you undertake Spirit-empowered prayer, you operate with a watchman's anointing. You watch to see things in the Spirit. What is the enemy up to? What does God want to do about it? You take the keys of the kingdom in your hand and you bind up the darkness. You welcome the Spirit of the Lord's presence. You are vigilant and determined. You worship the Lord, communicate with your fellow watchers and walk in agreement together. Then pray what is on God's heart. [End Quote]

2 For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands him; however, in the spirit he speaks mysteries.
Romans 8:26-28 (NKJV)
26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 27 Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
1 Corinthians 14:14 (NKJV)
14 For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my understanding is unfruitful.

In These Last Moments ...
- Watch your words
- Guard your heart
- Trust in Jesus
- Place no trust in anything on Earth or in this Life
- Not money
- Not man
- Not life on Earth as we have known it
This is not what Jesus planned … but mankind wanted Satan’s rule … and this is due to the evil of Satan … so this tribulation to come with everything in the vials (Revelation 16) to be poured out … the vials' contents were put there due to Satan’s plan and Mankind’s rebellion. If it were not for Free Will … and Mankind choosing evil over good … we would all have been living in the Garden of Eden. THAT was God’s plan! Do not lay this evil that is soon coming at the feet of Jesus … for it is not HIM that is responsible for it. This generation needs to KNOW this is not Jesus’ plan!
We should not trust in wealth, but in God’s provision and blessings. The New Testament does not support the ‘Health and Prosperity’ preaching that we hear today. Instead Scripture tells us the opposite:
- Jesus came to earth as a baby, was born in a stable and then He lay in a manger (Luke 2:7). Not in a king's palace.
- Jesus had no place to lay His head (Luke 9:58).
- Jesus lived in Nazareth. (Not a wealthy place).
John 1:46 (NKJV)
46 And Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?”
Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
- The disciples had no guarantee of a daily meal. Instead they took the charity reserved for the poor (Matthew 12:1).
- John the Baptist, whom Jesus called the greatest born of women (Matthew 11:11) and yet he wore clothing of camel's hair and ate locusts and wild honey (Matthew 3:4).
Wealth can actually get in the way of Eternal Life. We trust in our earthly wealth and do not place our trust in God. The rich young ruler for example (Luke 18:18-30). How difficult it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God. (Luke 18:24). There are some in the New Testament that appear to have wealth. Two examples are Nicodemus (John 19:30) and Lydia (Acts 16:14).
I find no scriptures that tell me to expect a ‘guarantee of wealth'. Instead, we should have a proper attitude about it. Our wealth cannot save us (1 Tim 6:17). KNOW that GOD provides what we need (Phil. 4:19) … I have been living a wilderness training at God’s feet for over two years now … and I can assure you that He provides for me (through people and circumstances). I trust Him and have learned He is my Everything!
Philippians 4:11-13 (NKJV)
11 Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content: 12 I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. 13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
The Bible does promise Jesus' faithful followers Heavenly Riches – Eternal Life (Ephesians 1:18). The early church gave up their earthly wealth (Acts 2:12-25). They expected something far greater (Mark 8:36).
For believers, wealth is a blessing from God. We use it for His purposes. We are not to covet it. It isn’t a reward for our obedience. It isn’t something we should expect. Wealth is not inherently bad … but Jesus said
Matthew 6:19-21 (NKJV)
Lay Up Treasures in Heaven
19 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Hold on tight to Jesus! The rough seas are surely coming and the mooring lines must be more than secure!
Anna
1/18/16
JESUS - Our ONLY Stability!
Jesus says, "I am going to be your ONLY stability during the time that is up and coming. The more you cleave to me, the safer, more secure and prepared you will be. This is no time to drift, rather as the seas get more and more choppy, the mooring ropes need to be secured more and more."
Psalm 57:6 (NKJV)
6 They have prepared a net for my steps;
My soul is bowed down;
They have dug a pit before me;
Into the midst of it they themselves have fallen. Selah
Revelation 6:16 (NKJV)
16 and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!
Let the Bride of Christ rise up and shout from the rooftops! "Awake you who are asleep! Catch Fire you who are lukewarm!"
God the Help of Those Who Seek Him. A Song of Ascents.
Psalm 121 (NKJV)
1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
2 My help comes from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The LORD is your keeper;
The LORD is your shade at your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.
7 The LORD shall preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.
8 The LORD shall preserve your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
I beg you to turn to Jesus! There are things being done in your behalf even now! If you don't know what they are - here are some of them:

From this time forth, and even forevermore.
- Prayers for your salvation.
- Intercession on your behalf.
- Begging for mercy for your soul.
- Pleading before God for you and your household to be saved.
The Bride of Christ is not lukewarm. We are not adrift in this world. We are the wise virgins keeping our lamps full of oil as we follow our risen Savior and LOVE HIM completely!
PLEASE: Accept Jesus Paid-in-Full gift of Salvation and Eternal Life with Him!

As a watchman on the wall: I write these posts in obedience to Him. He puts you on my heart ... and the Holy Spirit gives me the words to give you in these messages. He is not willing that any should perish and go to Hell. There are but seconds on God's Eternal Clock left of Mercy ... the doors are starting to swing shut. Please do not wait any longer. Do not say you have heard this forever and nothing ever happens.
Ezekiel 33:6 (NKJV)
6 But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet, and the people are not warned, and the sword comes and takes any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood I will require at the watchman’s hand.’
May your spirits hear and your hearts turn toward the one true God!

Isaiah 66 (NKJV) True Worship and False
1 Thus says the LORD:
“Heaven is My throne,
And earth is My footstool.
Where is the house that you will build Me?
And where is the place of My rest?
2 For all those things My hand has made,
And all those things exist,”
Says the LORD.
“But on this one will I look:
On him who is poor and of a contrite spirit,
And who trembles at My word.
3 “He who kills a bull is as if he slays a man;
He who sacrifices a lamb, as if he breaks a dog’s neck;
He who offers a grain offering, as if he offers swine’s blood;
He who burns incense, as if he blesses an idol.
Just as they have chosen their own ways,
And their soul delights in their abominations,
4 So will I choose their delusions,
And bring their fears on them;
Because, when I called, no one answered,
When I spoke they did not hear;
But they did evil before My eyes,
And chose that in which I do not delight.”
The LORD Vindicates Zion
5 Hear the word of the LORD,
You who tremble at His word:
“Your brethren who hated you,
Who cast you out for My name’s sake, said,
‘Let the LORD be glorified,
That we may see your joy.’
But they shall be ashamed.”
6 The sound of noise from the city!
A voice from the temple!
The voice of the LORD,
Who fully repays His enemies!
7 “Before she was in labor, she gave birth;
Before her pain came,
She delivered a male child.
8 Who has heard such a thing?
Who has seen such things?
Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day?
Or shall a nation be born at once?
For as soon as Zion was in labor,
She gave birth to her children.
9 Shall I bring to the time of birth, and not cause delivery?” says the LORD.
“Shall I who cause delivery shut up the womb?” says your God.
10 “Rejoice with Jerusalem,
And be glad with her, all you who love her;
Rejoice for joy with her, all you who mourn for her;
11 That you may feed and be satisfied
With the consolation of her bosom,
That you may drink deeply and be delighted
With the abundance of her glory.”
12 For thus says the LORD:
“Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river,
And the glory of the Gentiles like a flowing stream.
Then you shall feed;
On her sides shall you be carried,
And be dandled on her knees.
13 As one whom his mother comforts,
So I will comfort you;
And you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.”
The Reign and Indignation of God
14 When you see this, your heart shall rejoice,
And your bones shall flourish like grass;
The hand of the LORD shall be known to His servants,
And His indignation to His enemies.
15 For behold, the LORD will come with fire
And with His chariots, like a whirlwind,
To render His anger with fury,
And His rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For by fire and by His sword
The LORD will judge all flesh;
And the slain of the LORD shall be many.
17 “Those who sanctify themselves and purify themselves,
To go to the gardens
After an idol in the midst,
Eating swine’s flesh and the abomination and the mouse,
Shall be consumed together,” says the LORD.
18 “For I know their works and their thoughts. It shall be that I will gather all nations and tongues; and they shall come and see My glory.
19 I will set a sign among them; and those among them who escape I will send to the nations: toTarshish and Pul and Lud, who draw the bow, and Tubal and Javan, to the coastlands afar off who have not heard My fame nor seen My glory. And they shall declare My glory among the Gentiles.
20 Then they shall bring all your brethren for an offering to the LORD out of all nations, on horses and in chariots and in litters, on mules and on camels, to My holy mountain Jerusalem,” says the LORD, “as the children of Israel bring an offering in a clean vessel into the house of the LORD.
21 And I will also take some of them for priests and Levites,” says the LORD.
22 “For as the new heavens and the new earth
Which I will make shall remain before Me,” says the LORD,
“So shall your descendants and your name remain.
23 And it shall come to pass
That from one New Moon to another,
And from one Sabbath to another,
All flesh shall come to worship before Me,” says the LORD.
24 “And they shall go forth and look
Upon the corpses of the men
Who have transgressed against Me.
For their worm does not die,
And their fire is not quenched.
They shall be an abhorrence to all flesh.”
Part 2 - Intercession: Prayers and Fasting
Prayers going up NOW are being saved up for the lost and rebellious
during the coming tribulation … even as people call out with their last breath
to Jesus … these prayers are the ones that will allow Him to show Mercy.
Please
go into your prayer closets and pray as you may never have prayed before. The time
is coming, very soon, where the doors will be closed. The time of Mercy will have ended. All the prayers
now are being stored for this soon coming time. When the prayers are used up … no more Mercy will be
extended.
So please, fast and pray. Cry out in repentance for
the rebellious, the lost, your nation and the world.
The time is so very short. Do
not wait. Do this now.

Part 1 - Intercession: Prayers and Fasting
Things have gone too far ... the Tribulation cannot be held back any longer. Everything is out of our hands and totally in the hands of Jesus! However with prayers and fasting, some of the judgments that were to take place during the Tribulation, Jesus will remove! If we, His people, are faithful to pray then Jesus WILL answer these prayers!
Do not give up! Do not think -- wrongly (as I used to) -- that there is nothing you can do now. That is the enemy of our souls lying to us! Prayer is powerful! Here is a simple explanation of fasting: Fasting boosts the Power of Prayer - Exponentially! In summary our prayers are mighty and, when we add in fasting, this amplifies the power of our prayers!
I am sure we have all heard of fasting food but what if you have health issues and that is not possible? If you are like me (I have diabetes -- you may have something else), we can fast other ways! Instead of fasting an entire meal, what about fasting favorite foods? Perhaps fasting by not watching TV if that is something you spend time on. Fasting on reading material ... substitute reading the Bible instead of secular books. I promise, God will honor these fasts! We are denying our flesh! We are giving these sacrifices to the Lord for His use!
What should we pray for? Holy Spirit will put on our hearts what to pray and He will help us to do it! Your Faith will grow as well! The Word of God is powerful and does not change! Stand upon Scripture ... God's Word does not return void ...
As you grow in faith and knowledge, you will become more sure of your welcome as you come to God in prayer. If you need some help getting started, here are some suggested scriptures:
Numbers 14:17-20
I hope these words have encouraged you! Today I am going to focus on loving Jesus back.

What should we pray for? Holy Spirit will put on our hearts what to pray and He will help us to do it! Your Faith will grow as well! The Word of God is powerful and does not change! Stand upon Scripture ... God's Word does not return void ...
Isaiah 55:11 (NKJV)
11 So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
As you grow in faith and knowledge, you will become more sure of your welcome as you come to God in prayer. If you need some help getting started, here are some suggested scriptures:
- Father, forgive them, they know not what they do! Luke 23:34
- Pray for your enemies and those not saved to come to know Jesus personally! Even if it is a 'Last Minute cry to Jesus' ... He will show Mercy and Grace and will save such as these!
- If my people will humble themselves and pray ... 2 Chronicles 7:14
- Repent for your nation! Intercede for the lost and rebellious in your nation!
- Stand in the gap for your nation, as Moses stood in the gap for the Israelites! Exodus 32:30 and Numbers 14:17-20
- Moses sought God for forgiveness for the Israelites when they sinned against God. God heard Moses and Jesus will hear our petitions during this time of Tribulation, too!
Numbers 14:17-20
17 “Please, Lord, prove that your power is as great as you have claimed. For you said, 18 ‘The Lord is slow to anger and filled with unfailing love, forgiving every kind of sin and rebellion. But he does not excuse the guilty. He lays the sins of the parents upon their children; the entire family is affected—even children in the third and fourth generations.’ 19 In keeping with your magnificent, unfailing love, please pardon the sins of this people, just as you have forgiven them ever since they left Egypt.” 20 Then the Lord said, “I will pardon them as you have requested.
When you pray/fast, do not publicize it! Do these things in secret. Keep them between you and God! Do not go around with a dog-in-the-manger face to let others know you are fasting and denying yourself! Instead, smile and be joyous!
I hope these words have encouraged you! Today I am going to focus on loving Jesus back.

Acts 13:2-3 (NKJV)
2 As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Now separate to Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” 3 Then, having fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, they sent them away.:

Trust in God OR Trust in Yourself
... you CANNOT have it both ways. Either you trust in God and obey Him ... surrendering completely to the Lord OR you trust in your own strength and in so doing you will be lost! There is no middle ground! Only the prayerful and obedient will gain victory! Please do not take this warning lightly! PLEASE follow Jesus NOW!
Holy Spirit, I pray you open eyes, ears and give wisdom that people will see, hear and understand the following message:
The Bride has been given her engagement ring from her Bridegroom, Jesus, and she has been presented to the Father. There is no going back. What will come to pass in the near future will shock many in this country. The USA will be invaded from the North; the paratroopers descending from old style military aircraft. There is no way to be prepared in yourself and your prowess. To have victory, you must Trust in God and rely totally on HIM: prayers and obedience are required! PRAY! Repent for the nations! Listen for Jesus' instructions and obey! Pray that the horrors planned against the innocent will fail. Pray for the destruction of the infrastructure that has arranged all these events to decimate mankind from the earth. These prayers Jesus WILL answer! Pray for your enemies that they will be saved. Know that, with the death of millions, Hell will expand and unprecedented volcanic activity will erupt in places never imagined. This will be part of the destruction of the underground cities. Even as Sodom and Gomorrah were reduced to sulfur, so shall these chambers be filled with deadly gases and magma. No one could foresee the effect of the expansion of Hell and what it would have on what they call secure bunkers and cities. Yes, Pray! Repent! Pray More! Especially for the innocent and last minute conversions. Pray even that your enemies and the unsaved repent in their last moments for those who call upon Jesus WILL BE SAVED! Lift up your hearts to Jesus and call down Mercy to the Earth!
May hearts be turned from their wicked ways and choose to follow Jesus as they read these words.

Do Not Give Up! Hope in God!
The evil of the day is sufficient enough without adding more confusion to the mix: therefore I do not see the need to watch the news. I have learned instead to Trust in Jesus!
I have no need of things of this world that want to steal my peace and contentment. Jesus gives me peace that passes all understanding. His ways are not my ways and His thoughts are not my thoughts. We are so close to the end of the race ... I want to be closer to Him. To lean on Him when I am weary! Matthew 11:30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.
Some of you may be thinking I am burying my head in the sand and ignoring important things going on. I strongly advise you to rethink that opinion! You see, this world is NOT my HOME ...
Hebrews 13:14 For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come.
I am going to a place that has been prepared for me especially! I am unique and God knows me intimately! He loves me and I cherish our relationship! I am only human at this moment in time. I grow weary of the evil and corruptness of this world but I lean on Jesus and He gives me the strength to keep on the path He has prepared for me. Everything that is and will happen here on Earth has been foretold in the Bible. Nothing is a surprise to God!
I encourage you to seek Jesus and ask Him for what you have need of. He gives liberally to all who ask Him!
Matthew 7:7-11
7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Our HOPE is in the Lord forever and always!
Ephesians 1:17-21 NKJV
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, 18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power 20 which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
May you be Abundantly Favored and Blessed!

Is Your Faith Alive
... or does it resemble a couch potato?! Not willing to exert any action beyond sitting there. No interaction with God beyond the things we do by rote. No new revelations, our bones are dry as dust. We have left our First Love! Please open your heart and run to God. Let Him know you want to walk in a closer fellowship with Him. That you are willing to surrender ALL to Him! No more being double minded. No more playing games and fence sitting. No more letting the enemy of your soul beat you up and laugh at you. In Jesus Name, you have been given His authority! Learn the weapons of your warfare! Use them ... the three battlegrounds begin with your MIND! Take every thought captive unto Christ!
Greeting to the Twelve Tribes
1 James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,
To the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad:
Greetings.
Profiting from Trials
2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; 8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
The Perspective of Rich and Poor
9 Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation, 10 but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he will pass away. 11 For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits.
Loving God Under Trials
12 Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. 15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.
16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren. 17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. 18 Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures.
Qualities Needed in Trials
19 So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; 20 for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
Doers—Not Hearers Only
21 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. 25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.
26 If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless. 27 Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
It is not possible to have living Faith without having a Living Relationship.
Abba, Father, please open our eyes that we might see and our ears that we might hear the message that you want to impart into our spirits today. Holy Spirit thank you for quickening us to the Word and touching us that we may know this IS the path, walk in it! I ask for Abundant Favor and Blessings in Jesus Name, Amen!

Fellowship and Journal
Have you ever spent time in journaling? If you have never started a journal, now would be a good time to learn. Putting your thoughts, words, actions, reactions, life events ... anything that flows from your heart to the page ... becomes a written testament to the wonders of what God has done, and is doing today, in your life.
When you go back and read what you wrote later ... His mercy, goodness and grace will be so clear to you! You will see how He loved you, walked with you, protected you. You will be amazed at what the Lord has done!
Taking the time to journal is time spent in God's company. Expect Him to meet you there, while you journal, to speak to your spirit, to teach you, to give you courage and hope, to build your faith. He longs to fellowship with us, to love us and we learn to love and trust Him during these times.
9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds, 10 and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him,
God as Judge
Hebrews 6:10 (NKJV)
10 For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
The Devil
Luke 10:17-20 (NKJV)
17 Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.” 18 And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”
John 10:27 (NKJV) 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
Be blessed,

Every Day is a New Beginning!
At the beginning of this New Year, I say this prayer from my heart that all that land here are brought by the Holy Spirit to find the Salvation of our Lord and Savior Jesus!
Abba, Father, I come before you, praying in The Spirit in supplication for all the saints. Thank you for your Mercy, Love and Grace!
Holy Spirit, I thank you for bringing each one here. For directing their paths and showing them the Love that Jesus has for each one!
Jesus, thank you for your Everlasting Love that is without measure. We will not truly know Your Passion until we are in Your Presence in Heaven. We get a small taste here but our finite minds cannot fathom the depth of your Love and your Peace!
Father, thank you that, at the moment your Son's obedient sacrifice was complete, you sent an earthquake to open the rocks beneath His cross. You sprinkled the blood of your precious Son, Jesus, onto the Mercy Seat of the Ark of the Covenant and then declared 'It is finished!"
You are King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
Mighty Counselor, Prince of Peace,
Jehovah Jireh (The Lord is my Provider),
Jehovah Nissi (The Lord is my Banner),
Jehovah Tsidkenu (The Lord my Righteousness)!
Please, In Jesus Name I ask, Deliver us from evil! Amen!
Luke 9:23 (NKJV)
23 Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.
Contentment -- Proverbs 14:30 (NKJV)
30 A sound heart is life to the body,
But envy is rottenness to the bones.
Conflict -- 1 Corinthians 6:1-5 (NKJV)
1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints? 2 Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? 4 If then you have judgments concerning things pertaining to this life, do you appoint those who are least esteemed by the church to judge? 5 I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?
Repentance -- Psalm 51:1-17 (NKJV)
1 Have mercy upon me, O God,
According to Your lovingkindness;
According to the multitude of Your tender mercies,
Blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity,
And cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions,
And my sin is always before me.
4 Against You, You only, have I sinned,
And done this evil in Your sight—
That You may be found just when You speak,
And blameless when You judge.
5 Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity,
And in sin my mother conceived me.
6 Behold, You desire truth in the inward parts,
And in the hidden part You will make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean;
Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me hear joy and gladness,
That the bones You have broken may rejoice.
9 Hide Your face from my sins,
And blot out all my iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
11 Do not cast me away from Your presence,
And do not take Your Holy Spirit from me.
12 Restore to me the joy of Your salvation,
And uphold me by Your generous Spirit.
13 Then I will teach transgressors Your ways,
And sinners shall be converted to You.
14 Deliver me from the guilt of bloodshed, O God,
The God of my salvation,
And my tongue shall sing aloud of Your righteousness.
15 O Lord, open my lips,
And my mouth shall show forth Your praise.
16 For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it;
You do not delight in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,
A broken and a contrite heart—
These, O God, You will not despise.
Holy Spirit -- 2 Peter 1:20-21 (NKJV)
20 knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, 21 for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
Jesus, I trust in You! Jesus. I trust in You! Jesus, I trust in You!
