You Have Been Weighed In The Balance ...

and found wanting! 

I have been hearing in my spirit for days now these words for USA -- You have been weighed in the balance and found wanting: mene, mene, tekel, upharsin.

Daniel 5:22-28

22 And thou his son, O Belshazzar, hast not humbled thine heart, though thou knewest all this;
23 But hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver, and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know: and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:
24 Then was the part of the hand sent from him; and this writing was written.
25 And this is the writing that was written, Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.
26 This is the interpretation of the thing: Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it.
27 Tekel; Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting.
28 Peres; Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.

The watchmen are sounding the alarm, we are standing in the gap, but there comes a time when the great I AM says Enough! That time is now. I have such burdens and sorrows in my heart for this country that I, and many in my family, have served in military service. But I pledge allegiance to My God now - exclusively.

I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO MY ALMIGHTY GOD, AND NONE OTHER! 9/17/16
by Jeannie Hardesty 
Pledge transcript: I pledge allegiance to my Almighty God, to my Adonai, Abba the Father, to Yeshua, Jesus, our Messiah, the King of Kings and to Ruach Hakodesh, Holy Spirit, who is my source of wisdom and strength and I will no long pledge allegiance to any other. For this is my God. This is the One whom I serve and I will serve no other. Never, ever, again.

I will pray and stand in the gap until God takes me Home. Please, I beg each of you, do not take this lightly. It is a powerful calling on Christians' hearts to tell the lost and compel them to come into the fold of the Great I AM! Don't harden your hearts ... you may not have even one more breath! No decision on your part is a 'NO' decision.

In Christian Love,
Anna

This World Is NOT Our Home ...

put on the whole armor of God, Ephesians 6, and stand therefore. 

Child of God - Purpose in Life - Must Watch by OTG Ministries

There is no armor to protect our back. We are to always face the enemy.

Stand therefore! Scriptures to help us as we stand. Believing in God and the power of His Might. Many excellent Scripture References click here

Will you believe God and allow your Faith to grow through any adversity you find yourself? Quiet all voices but God's. There is not time for anything but walking with God and being bold in all things. Numbers 13 - Joshua and Caleb had faith in God and were the only two of that generation to see the promised land after the wilderness wanderings. Gideon's 300 were warriors chosen because they were always on the alert. Even while drinking - they kept their weapon in hand, stayed watchful, and drank from their hand as their gaze scanned around them. More intormation on Gideon's Army

The urgency to stay close to the Lord and finish our race grows every day! Of course, all of this is what God has put on my heart for you to know. Your walk is your own and what you do with the information - God knows and God will judge. Not me.

In His Service,

Tapestry of Your Life

Ephesians 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; 19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.

Third Day - Cry Out To Jesus

        Quilt of Holes - Author Unknown
As I faced my Maker at the last judgment, I knelt before the Lord along with all the other souls. Before each of us laid our lives like the squares of a quilt in many piles; an angel sat before each of us sewing our quilt squares together into a tapestry that is our life. 

But as my angel took each piece of cloth off the pile, I noticed how ragged and empty each of my squares was. They were filled with giant holes. Each square was labeled with a part of my life that had been difficult, the challenges and temptations I was faced with in every day life. I saw hardships that I endured, which were the largest holes of all. 

I glanced around me. Nobody else had such squares. Other than a tiny hole here and there, the other tapestries were filled with rich color and the bright hues of worldly fortune. I gazed upon my own life and was disheartened. 

My angel was sewing the ragged pieces of cloth together, threadbare and empty, like binding air. Finally the time came when each life was to be displayed, held up to the light, the scrutiny of truth. The others rose; each in turn, holding up their tapestries. So filled their lives had been. My angel looked upon me, and nodded for me to rise. 

My gaze dropped to the ground in shame. I hadn't had all the earthly fortunes. I had love in my life, and laughter. But there had also been trials of illness, and wealth, and false accusations that took from me my world, as I knew it. I had to start over many times. I often struggled with the temptation to quit, only to somehow muster the strength to pick up and begin again. I spent many nights on my knees in prayer, asking for help and guidance in my life. I had often been held up to ridicule, which I endured painfully, each time offering it up to the Father in hopes that I would not melt within my skin beneath the judgmental gaze of those who unfairly judged me. 

And now, I had to face the truth. My life was what it was, and I had to accept it for what it was. I rose and slowly lifted the combined squares of my life to the light. An awe-filled gasp filled the air. I gazed around at the others who stared at me with wide eyes. 

Then, I looked upon the tapestry before me. Light flooded the many holes,creating an image, the face of Christ. Then our Lord stood before me, with warmth and love in His eyes. He said, 'Every time you gave over your life to Me, it became My life, My hardships, and My struggles. Each point of light in your life is when you stepped aside and let Me shine through, until there was more of Me than there was of you.' 

May all our quilts be threadbare and worn, allowing Christ to shine through! 

God determines who walks into your life ... it's up to you to decide who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.' 

Maranatha,
Anna
