Encouragement

God Has Made Himself Available

Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know when I sit down and when I get up; You understand my thought from far away. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, Lord, You know it all. You have encircled me behind and in front, And placed Your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is too high, I cannot comprehend it. – Psalm‬ ‭139‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

Omnipotent means having unlimited power, while omniscient means having unlimited knowledge. Here, we see our God as awesome, with all power. Nothing is out of His control, yet He knows me intimately, and He knows me in every way. Such power and yet such intimate knowledge of our every move, our every thought, and every way. David says simply that He knows it all. He knows us all.

He has made Himself available and calls us to know Him. His great power is manifested in His creation; we can see His wisdom in countless aspects of His great work. The heavens declaring His glory, the oceans displaying His power, the mountains His strength: all wisdom and might come together in Him. All of these demonstrate His greatness.

The one thing they cannot do is make Him available to us. His word governs nature, but He has given us His Word and His name—He is available to us. He knows us and desires to be known by us. All omnipotent and all omniscient. His beckoning us to, “Come unto Me and I will in no way cast you out.”

Keep on coming, keep on seeking, keep on being hungry and thirsting for His righteousness and Him alone. To know God and make Him known to others to glorify Him.

Thank You, Jesus, for Your name and Your word. Hallelujah to the Lamb!

International Women’s Day

This morning all over the media much is being touted concerning the incredible women in the world. So many women I myself have encountered through my travels over the years, to five continents. So many believing women of faith have enriched my life and encouraged me. God, when He created woman saved the best for last. She is the coupe de gras of creation. God had seen it was not good to be alone, so He created the woman and brought His goodness to man. 

Years ago, I was convicted about giving only messages concerning women on Mother’s Day and Mary on Christmas. There are so many woman of faith in the Bible that are testimonies to our God—Godly women. In fact, this week will be Purim, in which Esther saved the Jews from genocide. Women full of faith, courage, and great love for God. Such as the woman who broke the vile of perfume and poured it on Jesus. 

“Truly I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the entire world, what this woman has done will also be told in memory of her.” – Mark‬ ‭14‬:‭9‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

This woman will be unforgettable. This one-time act of worship and love for Jesus has been preached in my hearing many times in many places as Jesus said it would be.

As I listened, many media outlets declared the greatness of woman from motherhood to every aspect of life. Not one mentioned the value of wives; mothers, yes, but wives, no. The world’s view, since feminism has been championed, has devalued the woman as a wife in the world. 

Of course, for various reasons in her struggles. Yet the word of God holds her in high esteem.

“He who finds a wife finds a good thing And obtains favor from the Lord.” – Proverbs‬ ‭18‬:‭22‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

So when God saw creation was incomplete, and created Eve, for man, Solomon writes, concerning woman’s  first introduction, she is good and brings favor into our lives. 

Today I honor and appreciate all woman everywhere, especially those of the Father’s house, and cannot go without acknowledging my wife Betsy and three daughters Olivia, Hannah, and Norah. I love you sooooo much. Thank you Jesus!

Grafted In

But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive, were grafted in among them and became partaker with them of the rich root of the olive tree, do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” Quite right, they were broken off for their unbelief, but you stand by your faith. Do not be conceited, but fear; for if God did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare you, either. See then the kindness and severity of God: to those who fell, severity, but to you, God’s kindness, if you continue in His kindness; for otherwise you too will be cut off.” – Romans‬ ‭11‬:‭17‬-‭22‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

The phrase “grafted into Israel” is an analogy from the Bible that refers to the inclusion of Gentiles into the spiritual blessings of Israel. It’s based on the agricultural practice of grafting, where a branch from one tree is inserted into another. As Paul writes, the grafted-in branch has become a rich partaker of the root. 

For me, as part of the grafted-in wild olive branch, the revelation of this truth became so real to my spirit beginning October 7,  2023, when I was ministering in Lebanon. The Holy Ghost spoke to my heart: 

“No longer just stand with Israel, but identify with the inclusion, as a believer.” 

I am now part of the same spiritual family as Jews and share in the promises of God. Yes, it is absolutely based on my faith in Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, who happens to be a Jew who sits on the throne of God.

Since the ceasefire and hostage exchange, I have been getting up around 4 am to watch i24 news while watching and praying. During this time, I have been meditating on the verses above. Recently, as I prayed in the spirit—because I have run out of words in my own understanding—the Holy Ghost impressed upon me this word: 

“It is not enough for me to stand with Israel, but to know I was grafted in, to identify as a wild olive, and partake of the rich root.” 

I have never felt so grafted in.

It’s been over 500 days since Hamas began this horrific war. So many people have been lost due to the terrorists’ barbaric slaughter of Jewish civilians. Oded Lifshitz, Shiri Bibas, Ariel Bibas, and Kfir Bibas are four of those innocent lives now murdered and gone. The arrogant and celebratory transference ceremony that their family, their nation, and the world had to witness, just to receive back their remains, shows you everything you need to know about who these people are. They are controlled by a demonic spirit, a culture of hate, torment, and death. They revel and glorify in the death of Jews and anyone who supports them. They indoctrinate (train) their children, also. They brought whole families to watch the transfer of the Biba’s children’s bodies, Ariel and Kfir. They celebrate all death and long for their own. Especially if it means they’re able to take other people with them. It is a total disregard for life, satanic to the core. 

In Proverbs 30:15 and Habakkuk 2:5, Sheol is described as being insatiable, always hungry, and never satisfied. This is because Sheol is the state of death and death is humanity’s final enemy. It cannot be satisfied.

In the book of Revelation, the angel of the bottomless pit is Abandon, whose name means “destruction” in Hebrew. In Greek, his name is Apollyon, which means “destroyer.” The pit is cracking open in the Middle East. 

Maranatha!

No Peace Without the Prince of Peace

Peace, Peace becoming an idol. Man is incapable of bringing peace without the Prince of peace.

This is such a critical time in the last days. The illusion, the utopian peace, man’s idea, world peace, will never be. The danger that is before us is the wariness and weariness of war and conflict in the world— it is taking its toll. The war in Ukraine and the Iranian assault by its proxies on Israel and Lebanon is dragging on. The nations of the world have not the will to take on wickedness and evil. Instead, they are fulfilling scripture:

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! – Isaiah‬ ‭5‬:‭20‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

This cry for peace comes from those who talk peace but have war in their hearts and it is prophetic in its end. The spirit of prophecy is the spirit of Jesus.

This is what Jesus, Paul, James, Peter, and John all warned concerning the last days. “Let no man deceive you.” It is interesting that in Matthew 24 Jesus did not speak of the deceiver, the devil, “but let no man deceive you.”

The continual conflict between Israel and Muslims advocating Sharia Law and world domination cannot be resolved. The sword of Allah has no sheath. First priority, the destruction of Israel and taking its land, then believers in Jesus Christ, God’s only begotten Son. There is no peace with such evil and violence. The spirit of antisemitism is rolling out the red carpet and will usher in “The Anti-Christ.”

But evil people and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. – 2 Timothy‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

Paul is warning Timothy, the younger generation, that it will go from bad to worse. After ministering and laboring in the Middle East since 1994, this is absolutely true.

Unless this spirit is met head on with resolve and strength, it is like leaven. Just a little spoils the whole loaf. There has not been one agreement, ceasefire, or boundary set that is not violated. Biden told them “Don’t,” and Iran did, firing an unprecedented barrage of 200 missiles directly into Israel on October 1, 2024. Hamas has launched 8500 missiles from the Gaza Strip and Hezbollah 10,000 from Southern Lebanon into the North. What country or nation of the world could endure such an onslaught? The UN would have called an emergency security council meeting and condemned it and would have put together a coalition to deal with it. Instead, we have the World Court accusing Israel of genocide and Netanyahu of war crimes. While Hamas and Hezbollah armed themselves, by Iran, for years, building a network of weaponized tunnels.

Israel, as well as Lebanon, have given way to both the Palestinian Authority and Hezbollah and their people. Yet these negotiations continue for kidnapped, raped, tortured, and murdered civilians, in which two innocent children were strangled, not condemned by the nations of the world, and not giving them an ultimatum, backing it up with action. Why is there not a Coalition of forces joining Israel and routing out this infestation of evil terrorists? It would be done quickly, they would surrender in no time and not be emboldened. Iran would stand down in a month and the network of weapons and tunnels would be irradiated.

The diplomats, no matter how good their intentions, could prepare for a real peace agreement, although it would only be for a time. Israel could have security and a season of peace. The gospel could go forth and a great end-time harvest would be gathered.

Since 1994: Gaza under the Palestinian Authority

In May 1994, following the Palestinian-Israeli agreements known as the Oslo Accords, a phased transfer of governmental authority to the Palestinians took place. Much of the Strip came under Palestinian control, except for the settlement blocs and military areas. How have they been relayed? Another failed cry for peace, only for sudden destruction to follow.

And those who repay evil for good, They become my enemies, because I follow what is good. – Psalm‬ ‭38‬:‭20‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

And those who repay evil for good, They become my enemies, because I follow what is good. – Psalm 38:20 NASB2020

Goodness is under attack and of course, the obvious conflict is, “God is Good!” Evil will always repays good with total disregard. No matter how hard you try or appeal, it cannot overcome the love of evil it is consuming, full of deceit and lies. It is the spirit of anti-Christ, lawlessness.

The love of many is growing colder and colder, as Jesus prophesied.

You love evil more than good, Lies more than speaking what is right. Selah You love all words that devour, You deceitful tongue. – ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭52‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

There is a time for peace and a time for war.

Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; Who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; Who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! – Isaiah‬ ‭5‬:‭20‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬

Woe is a judgment that is coming if what is being done is evil. It is inescapable. “Woe unto you” means “great misfortune or misery is coming to you,” essentially serving as a strong warning or condemnation, often used in a biblical context to express a severe judgment upon someone or a group of people for their actions.

This is the spirit of the antichrist that is gaining momentum in the world. The spirit of antichrist is in every generation and is manifested in many people, places, and things. It will finally be revealed in one man of lawlessness and one world system.

Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour – 1 John 2:18

The message of the anti-Christ is false peace. Paul describes his coming on the scene in his letter to Thessalonians as follows:

No one is to deceive you in any way! For it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God. – 2 Thessalonians‬ ‭2‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭NASB2020‬‬


As the spirit of antichrist, which has been moving in the world since Jesus ascended to the throne of His Father and sat down at His right hand until He makes His enemies His footstool, have been manifesting themselves in every generation, as the gospel has been going around the world, and now has come full circle. This I believe I can say—the more we are deceived, or are not sobered, or on alert, or sleeping, and dull of hearing, we are vulnerable to already have taken the spirit of the mark of the beast, long before the actual manifestation. It will seem very natural and beneficial to do so.

It may seem farfetched, but who would have believed we would be confused by gender identification? Because of the proliferation of prophets and prophesies, we are in danger of discounting prophetically what is happening in the world. Paul tells us, “Do not quench the Spirit, do not utterly reject prophecies, but examine everything, and hold firmly to that which is good.” To discount prophecy is to quench the Holy Ghost. He that has an ear to hear, let him hear what the Holy Ghost is saying to the people of God, Jesus’ Bride. Blessings.

Foundations

Foundations, the beginning, the First Thing.

The uproar in our nation over the long overdue call for accountability of our government spending is indefensible. How many election promises by all candidates and all platforms have called for the end of wasteful spending and corruption? No one in Washington can cast the first stone. It is being shouted from the housetops. The light has come and the exposing of all representative parts of government and its bureaucracy must be transparent. As of February 7, 2025, the national debt of the United States is $36.22 trillion. This is the total amount of money the federal government owes, including debt held by the public and debt held by federal trust funds.

$36.22 trillion….and mounting interest.

This defies all financial reason or budget principles that anyone lives by. What economist or anyone who lives by their earnings can continue to exist without going bankrupt? The US government has violated, in a sense, counterfeiting laws. Printing money based on the tax-paying citizens and the working class tax revenues. Counterfeiting is against the law. How can our government make good on any loans? They have robbed one budget fund for another. The latest example is the FEMA funds for illegal immigrants. The American taxpayer has been reduced to a voter and a cash cow. We have become their honeyhole.

Let’s take the tax rate from 2013 – 2017. The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 increased the highest income tax rate to 39.6 percent. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act added 3.8 percent to this making the maximum federal income tax rate 43.4 percent.

From 2018-2024 the highest income tax rate was lowered to 37 percent for tax years beginning in 2018. The additional 3.8 percent is still applicable, making the maximum federal income tax rate 40.8 percent. To think that anyone, or body, or entity could think that overseeing such a trillion dollars is the height of arrogance. To think that the USA is not on the verge of financial collapse is total denial.

In 2023 there were 418,724 bankruptcy filings in the United States, a 16.2% increase from 2022. It is time the cash cow, the golden calf, of Washington DC, is melted down. The god of mammon will never be satisfied and if we, as a people, do not repent from our neglect of holding all of our elected officials to their vow to the constitution and to God, we will fall. You cannot take an oath, a vow to God, and not uphold it.

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.”

Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few. As a dream comes when there are many cares, so the speech of a fool when there are many words. When you make a vow to God, do not delay in fulfilling it. – Ecclesiastes 5:2

The continued delay of our government to keep its promise to God and the people they represent warrants the solemn warning of this truth. If we, as a people, do not see the enemy of our national debt and do not put this nation first, the final consequences are inevitable. Perry’s words after a naval battle:

“We have met the enemy, and they are ours.”

The updated version was first used in the comic strip “Pogo,” by Walt Kelly in the 1960s and referred to the turmoil caused by the Vietnam War. Which will it be: the defeat of our enemy or the defeat of us?

My Lord and my God save us from this corrupt and wicked generation.

Respectfully submitted. This came to me after I heard an interview with Senator Tubberville this morning!

As was spoken years ago, the Authorship of God. In the beginning God!

Hallelujah!
