 ....remaining awake and sober minded “for your adversary the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour” (1Peter5:8).... and not losing our vigilance for one moment: Lest we fall into this same snare. “For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?”(1Peter 4:17) Are we not the Ambassadors of God’s Kingdom and born of His Blood? Are we not the first line of defense in the nations where we live, and also the spearhead of attack? We are not supposed to look like this world - we are not of this world ✝️❣️💔

I went through life bitter, self-centered and lacking in confidence. Then I was found by the Lord - and.... I GREW UP - and was brought low, by th...

 The Book of Revelation never really made sense to me until I had read through Daniel and all the books of the prophets; But the books of the prophets never really made sense to me until I read through all the books of the Law and the chronicles of Israel…beginning with Genesis.  (It is futile to attempt to build a solid structure without first preparing deep and solid foundations…how can we attempt to understand the end of the book, if we have not first read in order, the beginning and the middle?) A long time back, God told me to simply read the entire Bible from cover to cover, in chronological order, with no agenda in mind but to know Him. (chronological because it would be easier to connect the dots - and the Bible is a book of connection, where one scripture interprets another scripture, where everything in its context makes sense, and where there are no contradictions) …Two things the Lord told me: “Keep going!” And “Hold on (because it’s going to be the ride of your li...
