Opening my bible in the AM on 12-14-15, preparing for my meeting with God in prayer I found a program from a church service in North Carolina. On it I wrote, “God desires not a sacrifice but desires obedience. In Christ God got both a sacrifice to end a season and obedience to begin another.”

As a side note please read Romans 7:1-6 This speaks to one husband (first covenant ) who must die  so the woman (God’s people) may marry the second husband or the new covenant in Christ Jesus. “Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another–to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.“

Referring back to the main point of my “program” note,

“The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until Shiloh comes, and to Him shall be the obedience of the peoples. Genesis 49:10 (NASB)

“Shiloh,” taken from <H7951> (shalah); tranquil; Shiloh, an epithet of the Messiah :-

“Obedience,” from the same as <H3348> (Yaqeh); obedience :- gathering, to obey.

(Both examples are taken from Strong’s Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.)

“And to Him shall be the obedience of the peoples.”

After these things I asked the Lord where to read, as I always do. “Leviticus 2” was His response. The law of grain offerings? I read it, questioning. “There are Laws,” was the Spirit’s response to me. Then these thoughts came to me, “Now they are laws of obedience where you make the sacrifice of obedience. You bring the offering of obedience. Nothing substantive is asked of you because you have been given ‘all things pertaining to life and Godliness.’ (2 Peter 1:3) Obedience to the workings of these things is your responsibility, your reward is within. Your reward will not be found elsewhere.” (I then remembered,  ‘…but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.’” John 3:36 NASB) I also remembered, if the Law of the Spirit of Life is operating in us, the Law of Sin and Death no longer has power over us. (Romans 8:2)

Has the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus set you free? It is not automatic. Are you troubled in your soul over personal struggles or over world conditions and situations? You must obey the operating principles of the kingdom as defined by the Laws of the Spirit of Life, as defined by the teachings and example of Jesus, if you expect to find real freedom in your heart and in life. Only you and God know if you are. Do not be held captive by personal or worldly problems! The Way is made known, walk in it!

To what extent are we walking according to the Spirit (of Life), benefiting from a walk of obedience?  Not so much? There is grace! The blessing of grace is that an abundance of grace is available to bring the gift of righteousness to us in our walk, for those who receive it. (Romans 5:17) Remember also we must grant grace to receive grace. (Matthew 6:14) Let us also remember Romans 5:17: “ … so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” We must joyfully find ourselves as compelled to do right as we found ourselves compelled to sin!

Give the gift of miraculous grace this Christmas, to yourself first (those who receive will reign in life Romans 5:17) and to anyone else who for any reason need it, especially if it is from you. You benefit first. They will benefit from God dealing with them, just as He is now dealing with you.

You are dearly loved! Merry Christmas to all, around the world.

Please … gift this post or another post, to someone who might benefit.

In my last post “Is this not enough,” I noted that the Spirit of God said to me, (about Janis) “I want her with Me.” Telling me in advance has relieved and resolved those questions that one does ask. “Could I have done more, could I have been better so my prayers for her healing would have been answered? What about the thousands of prayers from the far points of the earth? Did I hinder them? No I did not. God is bigger than that in every way.

That last morning before her passing, after the Lord said “I want her with Me,” He also said, “I cannot trust you with her.” What Lord?

For the next 40 days I struggled with that thought. I would have given my life so she could live. After the funeral and as I said, days later, I was still struggling with this. Then one morning the Spirit said to me, “You have it wrong. You can not do what you are called to do while caring for Janis. You will put her first, as you have. I cannot trust you with her, …there.” I believe He was also saying “I can trust you … with her here.”

And so, by encouragement from Him, I am posting the distressing things I am called to post. All the Father cares about is that we are prepared via His Spirit of love, knowledge, wisdom, counsel, strength, understanding, and reverence. His Spirit leads us into all truth. This life is our chance to be “free” and prepared in heart and soul. We must be.

I asked the Holy Spirit where to read and heard no answer. I opened randomly to 2 Chronicles 36:16 (KJV)
¹⁶ But they mocked the messengers of God, (I am not purposely referring to myself here) and despised His words, and misused His prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose against His people, till there was no remedy.”

The Lord warns us in His righteousness. Passover is a good example. Those who listened were protected. He warns us to uphold His name. His name means salvation not judgment. Jesus’ name means the same basically. The nations shall desire the cup of His salvation or drink from the cup of His wrath. We see this fact many times in the bible.

If we are no longer a Christian nation, our friends will become our enemies for even our God will become our enemy, having warned us in His righteousness for the sake of His name “Salvation.” Only in repentance comes restoration and re-direction toward heaven.

Are we as a nation beyond remedy? Will America forsake abortion, declare itself surrendered to God and Christ, cast down gay “rights”, purge pornography from the internet, condemn murderous religions as not religions at all, demand and elect Godly Christian men to lead, return to God in His inspired interpretations of the Constitution, will working for a living be honored over welfare to those who can work but do not? Will we forsake a UN global mentality that has left the rest of the world in a shambles? Is this an insurmountable list of national abominations? If yes, we must prepare for such a time as this to endure to the end, in a Way only God would ask. In the Way He did.

Political correctness has replaced biblical correctness. We have been morphed into another identity. The trust other nations had in us was based on the righteousness we stood for. Now, in effect, we stand for unrighteousness. We have been warned before about this. Reverend Peter Marshall, chaplain of the Congress, on April 18^th 1947, put it this way, “Lord…Give to us clear vision that we may know where to stand and what to stand for—because unless we stand for something, we shall fall for anything. “

Remember Ezekiel 17 and the two eagles. I believe the first is America as founded. The second eagle is America as it has become, the vine looking to the eagle (government) for sustenance. Have we not come to this? It goes on to say in verses 9-10, (NASB)
⁹  …And neither by great strength nor by many people can it be raised from its roots again. ¹⁰  “Behold, though it is planted, will it thrive? Will it not completely wither as soon as the east wind strikes it…?”‘”

Our nation is defined by its majority thought and vote. If a majority have already fallen for the path of unrighteousness, then only a personal commitment to God and a non-judgmental spirit will save each of us. Endure in your love toward the lost by prayer and intercession. By this you guard your own heart.

Enjoy this Christmas honoring Him like never before. Ask, seek and knock, for Him to show you ANYTHING that needs to go in your life. Rejoice, He is faithful to help. His name IS “Salvation” not judgment. Only you can destroy yourself. He, in love, is trying to help us avoid that.

Please … forward this post around the world.

Tomorrow is the first anniversary of my Janis’ passing, at 7:30 AM. Today (one year ago) at about 3:30 PM, was the last time she said my name,…It’s me honey, Michael…”Miiichael” I will never forget that moment. You might imagine how many times I have heard her voice over the last year. I look so forward to the next time I will hear her say it.

I loved her so Lord. I still do and will always. Thank You Lord.

“I want her with Me.” He said. She is.

“I will praise you forever Lord for your kindness to both of us, that you allowed us to have each other and You healed each of us with a love that covered, delivered, enlightened, encouraged, endeared, and led us to do the same to others. It was “salvation” to us. It still is.”

My sincerest thanks to all of you, who have loved and cared for me, this year. I have received the reward of Janis’ love toward you. I can imagine God telling her of your concern and compassion toward me. Thank you, I love you all.

This morning, after the moments and emotions of the above, I opened the Word randomly to 2 Chronicles chapters 27-28.

28 is about Ahaz. I wrote about his unbelief and Isaiah’s prophecy about the virgin giving birth in a recent post.

“So Lord, Uzziah is in chapter 27?” I read about Uzziah. Pride was his problem. He even contracted leprosy in his prideful actions. Of course I asked, still wrestling with my emotions over Janis because I have still wondered if I could have done more to help her. “Is this me Lord? Have I sinned against You Lord, like Uzziah? Please show me Lord.”

The Holy Spirit has been pointing me to areas of verse where similar situations prompted God to react, situations we see in our nation today. With these two men Uzziah and Ahaz, we see pride and unbelief. God tried to reach both men. I was not sure what to think. I asked the Holy Spirit this time, “Lord where would You have me read?” His response was… “Is this not enough?”

Please … forward this post Share it on Facebook. Order the book. Find a missionary to send it to. Read the other posts (some 80 of them) We must prepare. Tomorrow’s post, “Until there was no remedy.”

Yesterday I asked and the Spirit directed me to Habakkuk 3 again. I was drawn to verses 16-19. Read it please.

This morning as I began prayer, I opened to Proverbs 1: 20-33. Read it please.

Habakkuk ends with a “no matter what happens” conclusion. We must grasp the same and cling to it with all of our grace given ability.

Proverbs is Wisdom speaking and the ramifications of neglecting the knowledge, counsel and reproof she offers. She also speaks of where our security lies.

I then remembered the prophecy of John the Baptist and Jesus. Malachi 3:1 and Isaiah 40:3.

Malachi 3:1-2 (NASB)
¹  “Behold, I am going to send My messenger, and he will clear the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple; and the messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight, behold, He is coming,” says the LORD of hosts.
²  “But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap.

Jesus has come and yet He is coming again. Will we endure the day of His coming? It is a day referred to as “dreadful” by Malachi in 4:5. Before hand, speaking of the prophet Elijah or someone coming in the same spirit as Elijah, “And he will turn The hearts of the fathers to the children, And the hearts of the children to their fathers, Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.”

For this reconciliation to take place, grace, mercy, forgiveness, understanding and love must be administered. It will happen as the result of our receiving the reproof of wisdom. This wisdom is embodied in the Words of Christ, His admonitions meant for us by the grace of our Father in heaven. It is a preparatory process to cleanse us before the great and terrible or dreadful day of the Lord.

The unacceptable in our lives must be cleansed before He comes so that “… He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless. Ephesians 5:27 (NASB)

In preparation for our Christmas performance the choir director said, “Ok choir it is go time!” She meant we have had our chance to prepare and practice, it is now time to focus, to get serious. The time of our expected presentation is at hand. We must already know our parts and be ready to “stand and deliver” to His glory!

Please … forward this post.

I believe these messages of unique preparation in these postings are inspired and purposeful in the preparation of the church for perilous times. They are meant for all (especially myself) from the newest babe in Christ to the most elder of elders.

My goal with this post is to see readership in all countries of the earth. Believers are everywhere. The message of “enduring love” from Matthew 24:14 “shall be preached” according to Jesus. That message of enduring love, a “saving” message describing the good news of kingdom existence, being applicable now and the necessary antidote in so many demanding situations, will only be “preached to all nations,” as we share it beginning with one to one then many to many.

I find myself rejoicing and grieving at the same time. Where we are being read, I am happy and believing the Holy Spirit will expand upon this humble effort as only He can. In nations where the message is yet to be read and understood, souls are in jeopardy. The Apostasy will occur before Christ returns!

Every church must seek the same heart for themselves that set Jesus free of the “sin”He had become (over our sins and especially our sins against Him that day) and made eternal life possible for Him first then for us. His love endured toward us to His apparent end. Our end may be apparent also. Gloriously that was not His end and that is why our goal is to be like Him. Everlasting life required something even from Jesus! Enduring love is everlasting resurrection life.

My goal is to have readership in every nation by the end of this year. If you know someone in a nation NOT listed, please… please forward to them a link to one of the posts you liked. Go to that post, copy the address from the top window and paste it in an email to your friend or post the link on Facebook. If you will, please hit the comment button on this post and say this,

Thank you Lord for so many nations already.

Matthew 24:12-14 (Young’s Literal Translation)
¹²  and because of the abounding of the lawlessness, the love of the many shall become cold; ¹³  but he who did endure to the end, he shall be saved; ¹⁴  and this good news of the reign shall be proclaimed in all the world, for a testimony to all the nations; and then shall the end arrive.

These Words of the Father, through Jesus, are a prophecy yet to be full filled. The book title reflects how we will initiate the return of Christ. Preaching “this” good news to all nations will, as Jesus said to John the Baptist at the waters edge, “fulfill all righteousness.” Jesus and John were fulfilling prophecy. How can we not when we can?

Please … forward this post or other posts. God’s patience is drawing to an end as evidenced by the arrival of the twilight, the dusk of coming darkness.

It is unusual to post twice let alone within 15 minutes of doing so. Please bear with me. I am determined to achieve my 600 word limit with each post. This is less than 300.

In prayer this morning I cried grievously. It was not over souls but over my attachment to memories and the memorabilia that represent love and good times. All these things represent good to us. God knows this. Jesus was challenged by these same kind of things. There was good He had to deal with. Peter is a good example.

Maintaining these things can be a great distraction from our eternal goal and eternal perspective. Eternal is the only perspective that will guide and influence our course on earth toward our final destination and the narrow gate of heaven.

I am praying for you. Please pray for me. I am the tool of He who was rejected and yet loved beyond our knowledge, wisdom, counsel, strength, and understanding. By His Spirit and in His spirit of reverence, He chose Father God’s will be done, “on earth as it is in heaven.”

Since my beginnings in this walk, I have spoken over myself, “ Thank You Lord that I have the spirit of knowledge, wisdom, strength, counsel, understanding, the Spirit of the Lord and the spirit of reverence. Be glorified in the good things and be merciful in the errors as You repair my impaired judgment.

I encourage you around the world to do the same. We all need it.

Please … forward this post or others.

This morning I was again concerned about this house and the question of selling it after all I have done to make it home. This includes years of memorabilia that I continue to look back upon with great thankfulness and the clear recognition that God has been in my life so faithfully.

Selling the house now was a question of obedience in my mind. The Spirit said, “I am not concerned about the house. I’m concerned about My house.” I knew this means about His people. “Blow the trumpet!”

In choir practice last night I wanted to say, “Sing this as though it were your last Christmas (presentation).

Might it be? There will be a day when “Christmas” as we know it will change. Maybe not in our hearts, in our reverence for His humble beginning and His valiant assignment but in and because of the darkness that is covering the earth.

The less “lights” I see in my twilight walks through my neighborhood, the more unimaginable and contradictory I see the world getting, relative to God, I believe the dusk or twilight has reached us.

It comes to me now, “And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.” Genesis 3:8 (KJV) 

Day means it was late evening before sunset. Was it dusk, or twilight? God was looking for (so to speak) Adam. Adam and Eve were hiding themselves. We know they had covered themselves with leaves.

Are we at this same point? Are we at the dusk of this age? Is this world covering its condition with the “leaves” of denial? Is the world hiding itself by subjecting God to its definitions or imaginations about His authority, His very existence? Is this the same exit Adam and Eve took once they were under the influence of the “knowledge of good and evil?”

Does the world find itself still in that place, lacking the guidance of the wisdom, knowledge, counsel, strength and understanding; without the Spirit of the Lord (which I believe is love and further, enduring love.) Lastly, where is the spirit of reverence? (Isaiah 11: 1-2 NASB)

Yes the world and Christians on some levels are in that place of lack still. That which Jesus brought, to “repair” our impaired judgment, (the Seven Pillars) is yet to be embraced on a level that is effective for many. Awake, awake oh sleeper!

Daniel 12:2-4 (NASB)
“Many of those who sleep in the dust of the ground (Matthew Henry and I say it is the dust of this life’s entanglements) will awake, these to everlasting life, but the others to disgrace and everlasting contempt. ³  “Those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever. ⁴  “But as for you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the book until the end of time….”

Daniel 12:1 (NASB)
”…And there will be a time of distress such as never occurred since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued.”

They will be rescued by the very trouble they see as it prompts them to seek God on a level they have never known with the help of those who have insight. Will that be you friend, you pastor?

Awake! Gain insight! Lead others to the righteousness they need but think they already have.

Please … forward this post or my others. We must prepare. The distressing fact is, night is coming. Darkness must precede the Dawn!

As I shared in the post “What does it mean?” in my morning meetings in prayer under my Tallit, the Holy Spirit has been directing me to what I would consider obscure places (to me) in the bible by giving me an address (book and chapter) or a name, which I promptly look up.

These journeys have been very revealing to me as you read in that post.

By “What does it mean? I was saying it means Holy Spirit is doing the Father’s bidding in trying to reach us by examples in the Word that demonstrate His (never changing) position on certain things. As you remember from that post, the Esau’s of this world will no longer exist. The God, who IS love, hated Esau? Esau’s heritage meant little or nothing. Esau swore it away. Jacob did not steal the birthright, he repossessed what was his by his brothers own mouth. To me, this is a message that applies to any Christian clinging to a hurt or offense, wanting it more than wanting to obey God’s saving commands through Jesus to forgive from the heart.

In the same post, Ahaz, “he has grasped,” did not grasp at all! Ahaz disregarded Isaiah’s appeal to him by the Holy Spirit, to ask for a fleece. This was so Ahaz would know for sure the God of his father was there to support and deliver him out of the hands of his enemy. Ahaz chose worldly help instead of God’s help. Isaiah by the Holy Spirit declares a fleece in spite of Ahaz and out comes the prophecy of a virgin giving birth,…the prophecy of Jesus. What does this mean now?

Republicans in America are about to choose a candidate for president. Then the nation will choose. The Democrats have already chosen. What is God saying to us and to the world? “I am trying to remind you of your birthright and my support against your enemies.” How is He doing this? He has done so by pointing to a previous example in His Word (Ahaz) and to top it off, an example that includes the very season we are about to celebrate, Christmas, and the prophesied birth of Jesus.

Ahaz did not “grasp.” He did not live up to his name or heritage. Will we?

You may not know what your personal name means. What about the name you have taken as your covering, your salvation? “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord your God in vain…” The Lord’s name means salvation. It might as well say, thou shalt not take the salvation of the Lord in vain. Moreover, if we have taken His name then we too are to be a source of salvation projecting His wisdom, knowledge, counsel, strength, understanding, His Spirit, and reverence toward Him, toward others. Remember the Seven Pillars and the Seven Eyes in my last post?

Like a child, our Father teaches us His standards. We are expected to embrace them. He disciplines us (lovingly) until we embrace them. His name (salvation) is complimented or discredited by our projecting His Ways or not. We can live up to our new name. His grace is sufficient for us.

Please … forward this post and others. God has paused briefly for our preparation.

Blessed be the name of the Lord, the Lord our God the Lord He is one.

Bless you my friends may your Thanksgiving being rich and full and may it be as though no problem exists in your life for the God of our souls is watching over us lovingly and with great care.

May we have the seven pillars, the eyes of our God, fully functioning. The Spirit of the Lord, the spirit of wisdom, understanding, council, strength, knowledge and the spirit of the fear of the Lord.

These are the seven pillars. These are the eyes of God upon the stone He presented. May they be a strength to us. May we have eyes to see clearly and correctly and righteously. Like a plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel assuring our work is aligned perfectly with our vertical understanding of God and His seven ways.

To the Lord, the glory in our souls, and in our ways forever, in the great salvation which is His name, and that of His beloved Son Jesus, amen.

Give thanks that the Lord has bestowed upon you such great riches in power and salvation.

We (He and I) love you dearly,
Michael

Proverbs 9:1 (KJV)
¹  Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:

Zechariah 3:9 (KJV)
⁹  For behold the stone that I have laid before Joshua; upon one stone shall be seven eyes: behold, I will engrave the graving thereof, saith the LORD of hosts, and I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day. 

Zechariah 4:10 (KJV)
¹⁰  For who hath despised the day of small things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the LORD, which run to and fro through the whole earth.

Revelation 5:6 (KJV)
⁶  And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

Isaiah 11:2-5 (NASB)
²  The Spirit of the LORD will rest on Him, The spirit of wisdom and understanding, The spirit of counsel and strength, The spirit of knowledge and the fear of the LORD.
³  And He will delight in the fear of the LORD, And He will not judge by what His eyes see, Nor make a decision by what His ears hear;
⁴  But with righteousness He will judge the poor, And decide with fairness for the afflicted of the earth; And He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, And with the breath of His lips He will slay the wicked.
⁵  Also righteousness will be the belt about His loins, And faithfulness the belt about His waist.

I am so thankful for all of the friends that surrounded me this year after the loss of my beloved Janis on 12-12-14. It is not a brief Thanksgiving that I give. Some gave me housing for weeks. Many a meal was provided and the comfort of friends to be with in the evening. I had a place to mourn in private, in a bedroom of my own. All gave me prayer and moral support. My church acquaintances still ask me, “How are you doing?”

The group of exxxxxceptional young people from Lee University that I toured Israel with still include me in their lives through Facebook. After I posted a comment, one recently blessed me deeply by saying, “I miss you Mr. Mike.” A pair of them got engaged. As a marriage counselor I suggested a book “The Five Love Languages.” My suggestion was graciously received. I am so grateful Lord. Bless them all richly please. I know You will.

My 94 year old mom keeps asking if I have a girlfriend yet. She loved Janis so much. She says she loves me more than I will ever know. I tell her, “Just keep telling me Mom, just keep telling me.” I tell her she is the only gal in my life now.

The Lord has blessed my finances, and my health. I walk 4.25 miles a night, three nights a week minimum. I have a home now in Deland. I have a blog with 75 posts over the past year. I am being read in 29 countries around the world. I have a message and a calling about rescuing at least some of the believers that will be lost in the Apostasy. I have a book about it available in most electronic book stores like Amazon. “Exit Strategy, we initiate the return of Christ.” $2.99. 

I have been invited to Thanksgiving dinner, by several households, thank You Lord. I have been invited to a special Christmas with longtime friends and their family. Not actually related just loved abundantly, they have always known me as “Uncle Mike.” 

My heavenly Father has told me even this morning that He loves me and that I am His. I have wept, no I cried over such a wonderful blessing. I get to sing in the church Christmas choir on the 13th of December at the Sanctuary Church of God. (You are invited of course. There is something [God] happening there.)

Every morning in the last month and a half, I have met with the Holy Spirit under my Tallit as He has led me to obscure persons in the Word, guiding me to answers about today’s situations, making comparisons, each time confirming that my experience with Him is real. It is amazing, troubling sometimes, and or instructive to me personally at times. Never-the-less, you know when you know it is Him and it is real. I post about some of these things frequently.

As I always say, and as many of you are, please … forward this post or others. to a friend, your Pastor,  or a missionary in another country, or in this one for that matter. Maybe they will identify with the revival message in these posts. Revival for survival.
