I awakened to the sun streaming in this morning. The dogs’ needs force me up and out around 5:00 am usually, but today we all slept until sunrise.
The joy came when I opened the door and the fresh, cool air hit. There couldn’t be a more beautiful day dawning!
After our humid and smoky summer (such a conundrum!) this early fall “tinge” is so welcome. It feels like the air from northern Minnesota has come to visit us, like unzipping the tent flap on a camping trip up north.
The acorns ricochet off of the roof. My friend came over yesterday and she was startled by the sharp sounds. It’s like gunfire. “It’s acorns,” I said.
As beautiful as it is here in my little neck of the woods, it cannot be compared to heavenly joys that await us.
There is much talk about Christ’s return, specifically the return for the church (not the second coming.) The bride of Christ is slated to go up and meet Jesus in the air.
Soon.
What a relative word! It can be a moment (PERHAPS TODAY!), it can be “weeks” (both literally or figuratively) it can be a thousand years (a thousand years is like a day…).
It seems like it could be days, lately.
The signs in the heavens all point to Christ’s return. The earth is aquaking: volcanoes and tremors. Politics: should I go there? Wars and rumors of wars abound.
For me, as I watch, I have my radar up for the movers and shakers behind the scenes of our economies, the Public Administrations of the world, and what they are up to.
Most people are mostly, if not completely, unaware of these entities. They are never featured on the evening news, they are sometimes barely mentioned. You must ferret out information on these folk.
But these are truly the powers, the puppet-masters.
They pull the strings on trends and markets. They control the internet. They are the decision makers, and all must bow to their demands. The Alan Greenspans are just the figureheads.
Conspiracies? Of course. Conspiracies have been around since ancient times. They are the subject of myriad stories and legends. They still exist.
Unfortunately, that may be news to some.
I have stepped away largely from keeping up with these powers. It is time consuming and emotionally draining. I think many of my prophecy people, my “Tribe,” have also needed to step back. The information keeps coming and it can be overwhelming.
For our mental health we must protect our information gathering gates.
The world is red hot right now, in all respects, even as the sun shines through my porch vines; it looks like all is well. It is not. Stuff is brewing.
But I choose to be expectant, watching, looking up. When I focus on my spiritual health I am happier, at peace, and confident in what is coming. I am granted guidance and wisdom.
It is, nonetheless, interesting to dip back into the running flow of prophecy talk from time to time, keeping track of the current situation.
Sometimes even the evening news knowingly or unknowingly reports signs of the times, the last days.
NEWSFLASH: We are in the last days!
Are you ready? There is an urgency right now to be prepared. I am not talking “prepper” stuff: no one could possibly prep for the wrath of God. You can only trust in Jesus, and that will always be enough. Death will be the kindest thing for most people facing the trials to come. Death is defeated by Christ, therefore it will be preferred.
Death without Christ is another story.
Let this time of urgency drive you to make a decision to follow Jesus. You don’t know what is coming.
Artificial Intelligence rewrites itself every 12 minutes. We are dealing with an entity that could be spiritually driven by evil.
The devil has been around a long time and he is pretty intelligent. You can only be safe from his power in Christ Jesus. Satan rules this earthly domain for now. He knows he’s going to locked up for 1,000 years and he is doing his level best to defy God now.
If only he would lose his power over people that I am praying for.
My prayer is that the scales of his deception would fall from the eyes of those I pray for. I pray that they would see the truth of God, in Christ Jesus, and convert to His way.
God answers prayer, so I am confidently praying, in His will, that they come to faith.
This is hope.
The world can burn on my right and wash away on my left. I am standing on a solid rock.
Come Lord Jesus!
MARANATHA!
