God Stands the Test of Evil and Time
"In a time of peace and security, when no one is looking, there is one final display of My power.” Father hands me a dark scroll and says, "This is the last scroll." “The time is short. The angels are gathering. Chaos will reign, but only for a short time. My people, My children, many of you will be caught in sinful acts and will be exposed.” “In 5 Months you will see My reign in a whole new way.” I ask, may I open it? Father nods. The scroll says, "Many have tried to discredit, burn, terrorize, nullify, extinguish, hide, remove, and destroy that which I Am [...]
Accepting God’s Mystery
“Hope is found within My complete control and unfathomable wisdom, within My mystery as you say. Depression is not trusting Me to work all things to good, especially outside your understanding.” “Just take a moment and wait… with Me.” I stand beside Him. Immediately my mind begins to wander, I stop the thought and go back to Jesus. Normally I look up at Him eager to learn something new: something about Him, about His truth, His word, something for me or the church. This time is different. I reach up to hold His hand and just stand with Him, waiting. His brilliant light surrounds us to the point [...]
Warning From Jesus
“My Kingdom is not one for the self righteous, the condemner, nor the activist. My Kingdom’s door is open to the poor in spirit, the meek, and the humble regardless of their past. I am the door, My Father is the door keeper. Have I not told you so already? Submission to Me and others is the key that many are searching for and yet unable to find.”
Properly Pronouncing God’s Name
Read Acts 14:10-12 Jesus is at the center of our Christian faith, but have you ever stopped to consider the multiple ways we pronounce His name? In North America we call the Hebrew Messiah 'Jesus', but in Spanish speaking nations He is called 'Hesus'. In other nations his name is pronounced even more differently: in Latin it is Iēsus, then there is the Hebrew Yeshua. He is also known by other names. The scriptures also calls Him Emmanuel. There are over 50 names, titles and characteristics attributed to Jesus. See this site for a complete listing. (Names of Jesus) But seriously how do we say His name is [...]
The Persecuted Are Not Alone
Jesus reminds me, "Count it all joy when you are reviled for My name’s sake. Take joy in the good and joy in the bad.” I look down at my feet, they are bare. They have the appearance of being golden translucent. I wiggle my toes. I imagine sandals on, then a beautiful pair of sandals appear on my feel. They move with my feet, not solid like here on earth. I look up, Jesus is just smiling as He enjoys watching me explore. “Anything and everything is waiting here for you, child. But, now is the time to work and to serve. Rest comes in the morning [...]
How to Hear From Jesus
God speaks through His Spirit with those who abide in Him (John 14:15-27, Gal 5:25). What is interesting is if we are not led by God’s Spirit, we are not His children (Romans 8:14). As we seek to have a right relationship with God and abide in Him, we begin to commune with Him as a friend (John 10:27, Revelation 3:20). Your relationship with the One who created and designed you (Psalm 139) will be unique as well as a journey. As we see in Scripture, God speaks to each of His children differently: Moses - By voice and a burning bush (Exodus 3ff), and then later face [...]
