Excited to have an update video on all the renovations happening at the Tent of Praise in Lebanon. Blessed to support and be a part of the work the Lord is doing in Beirut and the Middle East. Praise the Lord!
“Come” is the command of Jesus always
How do you see Jesus in the storm? The disciples thought they saw a ghost, a spirit, and were troubled. It says they cried out for fear. But immediately Jesus spoke, “It is I, the Lord.” The storm cannot hide Him nor muffle His voice. Peter cried, “If it is you, bid me to come.”
Jesus responded, “Come.”
In this time, no matter the storm we find ourselves in, we are in the same boat and the same storm. Jesus walks in and on the storm. His call is to come, for He is here.
He says, “It is I.”
Jesus is in the midst of whatever we are going through as He walks on the water at the height of the storm. He demonstrates, “Nothing is too difficult for Me.” The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost call to us, “Come.”
Keep on coming to them. Glory to God! Hallelujah! Jesus!!!

The Anointed (Mind) Head
David, in this great passage, identifies his relationship as one of the Lord’s sheep. The Lord is his shepherd. Jesus, speaking in His time, identifies His followers as sheep. He says, “My sheep hear My voice, another they will not follow.” David, during his years as a shepherd, received this revelation of God, the Shepherd of His sheep.
This morning, pray and receive your Shepherd. Ask Jesus, the Good Shepherd, to anoint your head with oil. A Shepherd anointed the sheep with oil not once, but many times, to keep flies from constantly tormenting them as they followed. We think of the anointing for ministry only, but how effective can we be with tormented thinking? This is for our daily protection. This was to keep the flies from laying eggs in the sheep’s mouth, where they get small cuts from blades of grass.
Jesus called Satan Beelzebub, lord of the flies, tormenters. Flies would lay eggs in the cuts and maggots would hatch and bring infection. The anointing is what keeps the evil one’s lies from tormenting our soul (mind, will, and emotions), where our thinking and decisions take place. David says God anointed his head with oil, and his cup runneth over with the anointing of spiritual thoughts and truth. Our cup spills over from us into our lives with His anointing renewing our minds. Without this, the devil and his lies begin to attack our heads and make us vulnerable to the world around us. It spills over into our marriage, family, friends, brothers and sisters, and the world.
The continued anointing, and sanctification of spirit, soul, and body will keep our hearts and minds. In this time we need our heads anointed. Our Good Shepherd, Jesus, the lover of our souls, is faithful to do it as we follow Him. We are the sheep of His pasture and we hear His voice.
Hallelujah! -KC
Blessed Valentine’s Day
Blessed Valentine’s Day to all. This is one of my favorite celebrations. Of course, honoring the love of my life Betsy, but also because I am reminded of this word of the Lord:
I am thankful for how wonderful our God’s mercy and truth are to us. Jesus told us to love God with all of our hearts. ♥️ We are not to be as men and women who see people by their appearances or circumstances. Love to all. -KC
Israel’s Resolve
As we see in this passage, God refers to Jacob and Israel as His servants, He made them: “You are MY Servant Israel.” He has chosen Israel to serve His purposes in the earth. It is the epicenter and focus of the only wise God as the gap between history and the prophetic is narrowing in time. It is vital that Israel’s resolve to eliminate Hamas, which in Hebrew means violence, continues to victory.
Hamas started this war, massacring some 1400 innocent civilians. The narrative of the media, fueled by the Islamic proxies of Iran and the United Nations, under the guise of humanitarian issues, is illustrated in Secretary Blinken’s statement regarding Israel “dehumanizing Palestinians.” Even the narrative of denial that October 7 did not happen.
The continuing evidence that the IDF is discovering is revealing the darkness that has been hidden in those tunnels of darkness. Armories of weapons, manufacturing of rockets — all that have rained down on Israel — and an underground system of tunnels and rooms. It is now coming to pass as Jesus said: “That which is being done is being shouted from the housetops.” The fact is Israel, for years, has been in a war declared by Islam. Their Jihad, holy war, for the genocide and extermination of Israel and the Jews.
The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement was issued on August 18, 1988. The Islamic Resistance Movement, also known as the HAMAS, is an extremist fundamentalist Islamic organization operating in the territories under Israeli control. Its Covenant is a comprehensive manifesto comprised of 36 separate articles, all of which promote the basic HAMAS goal of destroying the State of Israel through Jihad (Islamic Holy War). The following are excerpts of the HAMAS Covenant:
We have ourselves, the United States, during Ayatollah Khoemene’s reign of terror, were held hostage during the Carter administration. The hostages, 52, were held for 444 days, from November 4, 1979, to their release on January 20, 1981. Not to mention the terrorist attack on the Marines on October 23, 1983. 220 Marines, 18 U.S. Navy sailors, and 3 U.S. Army soldiers lost their lives in the Marine Barracks at the Beirut Airport. Since then Iran has continued to be emboldened and has continued in Jihad directed at Israel and the United States. They have not ceased one day since then.
In the early 1950s, the Arab governments organized paramilitary commando groups — fedayeen — which undertook raiding and sabotage missions into Israel. In our lifetime we have seen Hamas, Hezbollah, Isis, and the Houthis, to name a few. All of these, proxies of Iran, carry the declaration and vision of Jihad, their Holy War, aimed primarily at Israel and any allies, especially the United States. It has never ceased, but has gained more and more momentum, and exploded on October the 7th of last year.
This is Islam’s eschatology and world view, to bring the nations under Shariah Law. These events, nations, and terrorists are all part of the prophecies concerning the end times in which we live. May Israel continue to stand in its resolve. Not only in its resistance but its goal to eradicate Hamas from its borders. Remember Israel out of all its trouble, let Israel not be ashamed, let not its enemies triumph.
Hallelujah!
