So Much Is Happening!

There is so much happening in a very short time, I will be posting new articles soon as I want to do updates to my blog. See you soon!

Deborah, Judge and Prophetess what can she teach us?

This commentary is a commentary based on the Holy Scriptures and Biblical commentary as well as my thoughts and feelings as the Holy Spirit was leading and impressing upon me what He was teaching me.                                                                                                                                   Deborah called on her own soul to be in earnest. Have you ever called-on your soul to be in earnest? Do we even know what earnest means? Looking up the word "earnest" in the Roget's Thesaurus helps me to understand how I need to call on my soul. This practise is especially good for self encouragement, through Praising our Savior Jesus Christ. Earnest means willingness. This practice is great for when we get into spiritual ruts. The self is always wanting to be rebellious to God's ways. It is motivated to the easy way the comfortable way of doing life. What feels good. What we can get out of others. How much money we can make or save as a first place directive in our life. These ways are not God's ways. They end up being contrary to following Christ. Another word to describe earnest is; voluntariness, this is a willing mind and heart, a disposition, inclination, leaning, frame of mind. It is a desire, a will. A labor of love, self appointed task, in other words a volunteer! The opposed view is the "Self Promotion" practice. In our culture this becomes an idol form of worship. It takes first place in our mind, above all else. Going back to Deborah, she was calling on herself to be earnest because of the huge effect that it was about to have on the people God was going to use! It works the same way with us. He that will set the hearts of other men on fire with the love of Christ, must himself burn with love. "Praising God" is a work we should awake to, and awake ourselves unto. Praising God fires up people. They will see, hear and even smell the Holy Spirit on you and around you. You will walk in the anointing of the Holy Spirit! Deborah noticed who fought against Israel, and who fought for them, as well as who kept away. We too will notice who is fighting the good fight, and who is fighting against "Him" and against the good work. When Deborah noticed who fought against them, she made this observation, "They were obstinate enemies to God's people, therefore the more dangerous." Deborah noticed as well those who fought for them. The several tribes that helped are here spoken of with honour; for though God is above all to be glorified, those who are employed must have their due praise, to encourage others. But the whole creation is at war with those to whom God is an enemy. This is a very serious situation, when even the whole creation is fighting against the enemies of God. The challenge here is to research and ask yourself if you are acting as an enemy of God, are you going in the direction of the Holy Spirits leading, the narrow way, or if you are living in rebellion to His Word? What is happening in your life? Are there many road blocks? Are you stumbling? Do you have many hurdles? These are a few ways the Heavenly Father may be trying to get your attention, He wants to speak into our lives, and if we are not hearing Him, the Great Shepherd may use the whole of creation to redirect our wondering sheep hearts back to the fold by using obstacles in creation, whatever it takes, you are worth it! Sometimes it can look the same for the children of God and the enemies of God, the whole creation will fight against them, the outcome is the proof who you belong too! When a child of God gets lost He will come and find them. He will look for His Sheep! When He finds us, we know Him! The response we have is repentance, and we will have renewed praise and adoration for our Lord! We will honor Him as our King. Respect will come for Him as we rededicate our life to serve Him in whatever position He chooses for us. He has the best position for you! He made you for the work He has assigned for you, you are the only one who can do the job, no one can fill your shoes only you! The correction will come because He cares for His wayward sheep, we all go astray from time to time. If there is no correction coming for you then this is the time to be afraid, you may not be in the sheepfold, in other words you may not be a true child of the King. You can change this today, just believe... Jesus is the only way...! He came to seek and save those who are lost. Will you believe today, give your life to Him to direct you and guide you along life's great and narrow highway? Will you will choose eternal life?  His blood and body were given as a sacrifice for you! Accept the free gift of Salvation through the blood of Jesus. All that they said about Him in the Bible is true!  Going back to the story; The river of Kishon fought against their enemies. At most times it was shallow, yet now, probably by the great rain that fell, it was so swelled, and the stream so deep and strong, that those who attempted to pass, were drowned. Deborah's own soul fought against them. When the soul is employed in holy exercises, and heart-work is made of them, through the grace of God, the strength of our spiritual enemies will be trodden down, and will fall before us. We have power through the Holy Spirit to help in the Good Fight! She observes who kept away, and did not side with Israel, as might have been expected. Thus many are kept from doing their duty by the fear of trouble, the love of ease, and undue affection to their worldly business and advantage. Narrow, selfish spirits care not what becomes of God's church, so that they can but get, keep, and save money. All seek their own, Php 2:21. A little will serve those for a pretence to stay at home, who have no mind to engage in needful services, because there is difficulty and danger in them. But we cannot keep away from the contest between the Lord and his enemies; and if we do not actively endeavour to promote his cause in this wicked world, we shall fall under the curse against the workers of iniquity. Though He needs no human help, yet he is pleased to accept the services of those who improve their talents to advance his cause. He requires every man to do so.                                                                               12 Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam. 

13 Then he made him that remaineth have dominion over the nobles among the people: the Lord made me have dominion over the mighty. 

14 Out of Ephraim was there a root of them against Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, among thy people; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer. 

15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben there were great thoughts of heart. 

16 Why abodest thou among the sheepfolds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? For the divisions of Reuben there were great searchings of heart. 

17 Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and abode in his breaches. 

18 Zebulun and Naphtali were a peoplethat jeoparded their lives unto the death in the high places of the field. 

19 The kings came and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money. 

20 They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.

21 The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength. 

22 Then were the horsehoofs broken by the means of the pransings, the pransings of their mighty ones. 

23 Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of theLord, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the Lord, to the help of the Lord against the mighty.

The blessings of the twelve tribes

1 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. 2 And he said, TheLord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them. 3 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and they sat down at thy feet;every one shall receive of thy words. 4 Moses commanded us a law,even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob. 5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel were gathered together.6 Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few. 7 And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said, Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let his hands be sufficient for him; and be thou an help to him from his enemies.8 And of Levi he said, Let thy Thummim and thy Urim be with thy holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah; 9 Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant. 10 They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar. 11 Bless, Lord, his substance, and accept the work of his hands: smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them that hate him, that they rise not again.12 And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders. 13 And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the Lord be his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath, 14 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon, 15 And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills, 16 And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that wasseparated from his brethren. 17 His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they arethe ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.18 And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; and, Issachar, in thy tents. 19 They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand. 20 And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: he dwelleth as a lion, and teareth the arm with the crown of the head.21 And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the Lord, and his judgments with Israel.22 And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from Bashan. 23 And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favour, and full with the blessing of the Lord: possess thou the west and the south. 24 And of Asher he said, Let Asher be blessed with children; let him be acceptable to his brethren, and let him dip his foot in oil. 25 Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.

The everlasting arms of the eternal God

26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky. 27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them. 28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew. 29 Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help, and who isthe sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.

Is Father God Pro Choice?

According to His Word in Deuteronomy 30:19 and 20, Moses records Abba's commandments saying,  

I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: 20 That thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days: that thou mayest dwell in the land which the Lord swear unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them. Yes, today we have a choice to make to obey Him or not. We will have to choose life or death as well. This is not 50 shades of grey! Do you go through your day absent minded, making choices and not giving any thought as to what you are choosing? As Christ followers we still have a choice. But we must take the Word serious. He tells us to choose life! He gives us the correct answer so that it may go well with us. Choosing Life is His choice for us. If we choose death for instance, we will reap curses, this is so true, look around, you will see all kinds of examples of people who call themselves Christ followers with curses on them described in the Bible. I am not going to list all the curses, look them up yourself, they all are listed in the basic instruction before leaving earth Book called the Bible! This next scripture portion is so awesome in it's explanation of why it is so important to choose life.  Pay close attention to what can happen to us if we fall away. The scriptures say there will be a great falling away before Jesus comes back. Don't get too comfortable thinking you can live this life doing whatever you want. Live your life according to this book "ONLY" This is good advise. Strive to stay set apart "Holy" because He is Holy !  Repent quickly when He has made you aware of a problem, be ready to lay down whatever He shows you, whatever the encumbrance is, get rid of it!                                          Romans chapter 11

God has not cast off all Israel, but has saved a remnant

1 I say then, Did God cast off his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin. 

2 God did not cast off his people which he foreknew. Or know ye not what the scripture saith of Elijah? how he pleadeth with God against Israel: 

3 Lord, they have killed thy prophets, they have digged down thine altars; and I am left alone, and they seek my life. 

4 But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have left for myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to Baal. 

5 Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

6 But if it is by grace, it is no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. 

7 What then? that which Israel seeketh for, that he obtained not; but the election obtained it, and the rest were hardened: 

8 according as it is written, God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear, unto this very day. 

9 And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, And a stumbling block, and a recompense unto them: 

10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, And bow thou down their back always.

11 I say then, Did they stumble that they might fall? God forbid: but by their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, to provoke them to jealousy. 

12 Now if their fall, is the riches of the world, and their loss the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fullness? 

13 But I speak to you that are Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am an apostle of Gentiles, I glorify my ministry; 

14 if by any means I may provoke to jealousythem that are my flesh, and may save some of them. 

15 For if the casting away of them is the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? 

16 And if the firstfruit is holy, so is the lump: and if the root is holy, so are the branches. 

17 But if some of the branches were broken off, and thou, being a wild olive, wast grafted in among them, and didst become partaker with them of the root of the fatness of the olive tree; 

18 glory not over the branches: but if thou gloriest, it is not thou that bearest the root, but the root thee. 

19 Thou wilt say then, Branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in. 

20 Well; by their unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by thy faith. Be not highminded, but fear: 

21 for if God spared not the natural branches, neither will he spare thee. 

22 Behold then the goodness and severity of God: toward them that fell, severity; but toward thee, God's goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off. 

23 And they also, if they continue not in their unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again. 

24 For if thou wast cut out of that which is by nature a wild olive tree, and wast grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree; how much more shall these, which are the naturalbranches, be grafted into their own olive tree? 

25 For I would not, brethren, have you ignorant of this mystery, lest ye be wise in your own conceits, that a hardening in part hath befallen Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in; 

26 and so all Israel shall be saved: even as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer; He shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob: 

27 And this is my covenant unto them, When I shall take away their sins. 

28 As touching the gospel, they are enemies for your sake: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sake. 

29 For the gifts and the calling of God are not repented of. 

30 For as ye in time past were disobedient to God, but now have obtained mercy by their disobedience, 

31 even so have these also now been disobedient, that by the mercy shown to you they also may now obtain mercy. 

32 For God hath shut up all unto disobedience, that he might have mercy upon all.

God's judgments are unsearchable

33 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out! 

34 For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor? 

35 or who hath first given to him, and it shall be recompensed unto him again? 

36 For of him, and through him, and unto him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever. Amen.

Guilty Parties

They seem to be the most guilty parties. In reading from Numbers 26:16-18 starting at verse 16 we read. 

16 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, 17 Vex the Midianites, and smite them: 18 For they vex you with their wiles, wherewith they have beguiled you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of a prince of Midian, their sister, which was slain in the day of the plague for Peor's sake. The meaning in this passage is very interesting due to the fact that this strategy is used even now to bring down a people or even a country. If you study what the Midianites were doing to and with the Israelites, you can make comparisons about what is happening in our country and with our people, it is the same in many ways. The Midianites were vexing the Israelites with their wiles. In 

Verse 18. they vex you with their wiles -the meaning here- Instead of open war, they plot insidious ways of accomplishing your ruin by idolatry and corruption. Does this start to ring a bell? Our once glorious country America is full of idol worship,  and all manner of corruption due to the plotted out schemes of our enemy using people to do his evil work. He the evil one knows if he can take us down with idol worship and corruption America will not be able to stand, the evil one is seeking to steal kill and destroy our country. He works from the ground level from the inside out. This country can fall. The corruption levels are at an all time high and I surmise we are reaching a tipping point. God's wrath will be administered at some point, I fear in the not to distant future. The Word of God shows us if we even care to learn from it what Abba expects, He shows us how to conduct our lives through the careful study of His Commandments which have been lovingly laid out and preserved for us to live by. He shows us how to fight and defeat our enemy! start by believing and putting your trust in your creator Yahuweh! Let Him fight for you! The Bible can be thought of as our basic instruction before leaving earth . B I B L E. His love letter to His people. Abba does not want to see you fall by the enemies hands.  Please open your hearts, minds and eyes. Look around you, see what is happening . Keep yourself pure and undefiled by this world. he will help you . The enemy is taking all he can and he is using every fleshly thing he can introduce to seduce the sleeping people. He keeps people all wrapped up in their sin in prison. He keeps people so busy making money they have no time left. And he whispers in the ears of the people all kinds of good excuses they can give to just keep doing what they are doing...until it's too late. A good way to judge yourself is to ask Abba what is taking His first place in your life? What do you put first? A good way to notice how far off you are is your time management, if you love Him you would put Him first, it's just like when your in love, that person who you love and adore is the first thing you think of everyday, you a cannot wait to be with them or talk  with them. Return to your first love! Abba warns the churches in revelation to be very careful, they needed to return to there first love

Let me die the death of the righteous

Let me die the death of the righteous .  What does this mean to you? This statement can have different meanings for Christians. Will we as American Christians ever look at life this way, or even state this as a proclamation over our life? Do people see Christ in us? Would the world say after knowing you, "They are a people happy, above all others, not only in life, but at death, from their knowledge of the true God, because of their hope through His grace. Do you feel this way ?  Do you live this way? Do your neighbors know you well enough to see Jesus through you? People should be able to see something different in you. They should hear something different in you. They should almost smell something different in you, the aroma of Christ! That something is His Holy Spirit living through you! Should we as Christ followers Interject our faith through Jesus Christ into every conversation with the lost and dying world? I think yes, we should. I met a lady who is in her 70's and she said she never knew that she needed to accept Jesus Christ. She never heard this. I had a wake up call. We need to be radical in our walk for The Lord ! Everyone we meet should know that we are Christ followers. I needed to repent from my complacency about spreading the gospel to the lost and dying world around me. By His Grace I am saved, by His Grace my neighborhood can be saved!

What do we have here?

OK so I cannot lose the idea of all the "Sandy" stuff, It is not good stuff. First we have the super storm and her cohort Athena. Then the horrible devastating school shooting. I hate the thought of it. Then you have the word Hook for the last name of the school. When you start to put all these together it starts to make a picture if you will. Let's do some research on the name Sandy. Sandy is shortened for the name Cassandra. Who is Cassandra? Well according to Greek Mythology Cassandra was a goddess. Here is the research: Cassandra, in Greek mythology, the daughter of Priam, the last king of Troy, and his wife Hecuba. In Homer’s Iliad, she is the most beautiful of Priam’s daughters, but not a prophetess. According to Aeschylus’s tragedy Agamemnon, Cassandra was loved by the god Apollo, who promised her the power of prophecy if she would comply with his desires. Cassandra accepted the proposal, received the gift, and then refused the god her favours. Apollo revenged himself by ordaining that her prophecies should never be believed. She accurately predicted such events as the fall of Troy and the death of Agamemnon, but her warnings went unheeded. During the sack of Troy, Ajax the Lesser dragged Cassandra from the altar of Athena and raped her. For this impiety, Athena sent a storm that sank most of the Greek fleet as it returned home. The rape of Cassandra by Ajax was a favourite scene in Greek art. In the distribution of the spoils after the capture of Troy, Cassandra fell to Agamemnon and was later murdered with him. She was worshiped, as Alexandra, with Agamemnon. Let's do the comparison. Cassandra, "Sandy" Super storm is believed by some to have been a man created storm released by HAARP. If you do not know what HAARP is do the research. Supposedly they sent the storm there along with "Athena" to do the damage they wanted for sinister reasons. Do the research it is all on the Internet. This is a proven fact, when people hear about this conspiracy theory they will not believe it, even though it just might be the truth! Think about it, if HARRP did this and then sent Athena one week after to add insult to injury, when you think about it is kind of ironic don't ya think. Everyone I have talked to thinks this was a natural disaster, but what if it was the opposite? It becomes like the story of Cassandra "Sandy" even though she foretold the truth, people would not believe her. Are "they" sitting there laughing at all the sheeple? Would someone be this cruel to unleash such devastation on the poor and Innocent? I think sadly yes, we see it everyday people showing severe cruel, insane behavior, especially cruelty to animals and children. It seems the unborn are being targeted and slaughtered. Do the research it is all on the Internet. Getting back to the word HOOK, let's do some research on this word: what it means is catching hold and hanging up, etc. The Northeast seems to be targeted. Some prophetic researchers say we are coming to a close of history with just a few prophecies to be yet fulfilled. Some say we are in Ezekiel chapter 38. In regards to verse 4 of chapter 38  the Scripture states I shall turn you around, and I shall put hooks into your jaw, and shall lead you out... Could these verses have anything to do with our situation in America? What do you think? Where is America in regards to the end times prophecy? The facts of America; We have severe sin problems. There seems to be more and more violent folks out there. If we get out our Bibles we can read all about what it is going to be like. We are there! I do not wish to take the scriptures out of context, and I do not wish to paint an untrue picture. What I want to do is just study our times, and try to understand what is happening. I pray Abba gives all His chosen ones the ability to discern the signs of the times. The times are perilous. We should all watch and pray. As the days progress more will play out but right now I wait and pray and pray and wait.  Pray for the peace of Jerusalem! Pray for the parents and family members of all the "Sandy" survivors. The storm and school. May the peace of Yahweh be with them all! and with you!
