THE SWINE FLU

"For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom and there shall be famines, and PESTILENCES, and earthquakes, in divers places" Matthew 24:7

PESTILENCE - Websters 1) any virulent or fatal contagious disease - 2) an epidemic of such disease - 3) anything regarded as harmful.

Look up.....our redemption drawth neigh.

BY ME KINGS REIGN............

"By me kings reign, and princes decree justice. By me princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth. I love them that love me: and those that seek me early shall find me." Proverbs 8:15

I pray, if you are reading this blog, you already know The Lord. If you do not, I pray you seek Him early so that you shall find him. For us who call Him Lord, we know how important it is for us to read and KNOW God's Word and the prophecies.

God is sovereign!!!!!

The people in the Old Testament wanted a King, and would not listen to God, so God gave them their King. Soloman wrote, "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall b done; and there is no new thing under the sun". Ecclesiastes 1:9

Get out of debt...start simplifying your life...live a frugal life style...and start now.

Rely on and trust God and keep your eyes on JESUS!!!

The true and soon returning King.

I had this comment from a Darian Hickman this morning

"I heard from a friend that attended the Call in San Diego that you prophesied McCain would win? Are you going to admit that you heard wrong publicly? "

Darian, I am not a prophet and I did not make any prophesy. My call was for God's people to pray. Now that the election is over my call is still for God's people to pray daily for Our Country, Our President, Our Vice President, and The Church.

A THREE FOLD CORD

MORE ON HIM MONDAY #2

Diana, at Sunshine On My Shoulders, hosts More Of Him Monday. It consists of two choices to write about: Scripture Speaks and Him In My Life. I participated in writing on Him In My Life the first week.
I had chosen Him In My Life for that first one because I KNOW God was very much at work in our lives. Now I am choosing to write about Scripture Speaks.

You can go here to read my Him In My Life.

The instructions for Scripture Speaks are: share a specific piece of scripture that has spoken to you this last week. Share what you feel God is telling you through that passage and how you plan to apply it to your life.

If you will forgive me, Diana, I am going to bend the instructions a little. This is not a scripture that God spoke to me last week but many years ago and I have been standing firm on it. Because I have witnessed, in the past three weeks this scripture being FULFILLED I want to share it and my story with you.

I posted The Prodigal Son Returns here Saturday.

When David first disappeared from our lives, in 1986, I began to stand on and cling to, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6

This is a very familiar verse that most mothers claim as they are raising their little ones. I know I did. Then when David left it became even dearer to me and I stood in faith on the words "when he is old". Believing with all my heart that the final chapters had not yet been written in any of my children's lives.

Then on January 1, 1987 the Lord gave me a new verse:

"Thus saith the LORD; Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears: for they work shall be rewarded, saith the LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy. And there is hope in thine end, saith the LORD, that thy children shall come again to their own border." Jeremiah 31:16 & 17

The part that REALLY spoke to me was, "they shall come again from the land of the enemy." and "thy children shall come again to their own border." I knew that my children were in the land of the enemy but they would come "from" it and return to "their own border", come back to God.

I stood firmly on these two scriptures from that point: Proverbs 22:6 and Jeremiah 31:16-17.

Then on May 13, 2001, as I was meditating on Jeremiah, a piece of the scripture just jumped off the page at me. "Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears"!!!! Don't you just love the way you can be so familiar with scripture and then the Lord gives you totally new revelation on that very scripture? What a God we serve.

As these words jumped off that page I KNEW what God was saying to me was, "you have been crying to me about this for 14 1/2 years......quit crying, wipe your tears and begin rejoicing in what I am doing". WOW!!!

Can I tell you that in the following 6 years I never shed a tear over David and my other 3 children? No! But I can tell you they have been few and far between and when I prayed I was no longer weeping and pleading before the Lord, but was indeed rejoicing, thanking him and standing firm on "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things NOT SEEN" Hebrews 11:1

I trust the Lord has lead me to share Jeremiah 31: 16 & 17 and my story with you today. To all of us, who's children are not making Jesus the LORD of their lives, I know the Lord is saying, "Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to STAND." Ephesians 6;13

IT IS ON GOD'S WORD AND GOD'S FAITHFULNESS THAT I STAND
