"But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty..." 1 Corinthians 1:27

I am the messenger, I am not the message. Do not allow long held traditions to influence you.  See everything through the eyes of God. Take everything to the LORD in prayer. Weigh everything by: "what does The Word say." Should you choose to no longer visit this blog, I covet your prayers as I strive to be a godly watchman on the wall, delivering a hard message to those with ears to hear.  He is our Resurrection and He is our 'only' Hope.

"Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the full armor of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm." Ephesians 6

"Man doing what is right in his own eyes brings eventual destruction. Sin is a reproach to any nation and America has sinned greatly. Refusing correction, America (Americans) have continued their path of destruction. "My Spirit will not always strive with man." Genesis 6:3 

Evil has extinguished My Light that once shown in America. My people have perished (fallen away) for lack of knowledge. Clouds are gathering  over this once grand nation, now a shell of her former self. There is no desire to repent in America, because there is neither desire for nor fear of God in this nation. Many will fall, but My Righteousness will reign in the hearts and lives of those who will choose to follow Me, committed to follow their King, wherever He leads. A small remnant, but mighty when standing covered in My armor, speaking truth in My Name."

Guilty, vile, and helpless we;
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
“Full atonement!” can it be?
Hallelujah! What a Saviour.!!.

Pope Francis has sent his blessing to a lesbian author of children’s books dealing with same-sex families, wishing her and her wife well in their work.  In his message, the pope wished the two women “ever more fruitful work in the service of young generations and in spreading authentic human and Christian values.”

Pope Francis is a man of evil intent.  His visit to America next month will be most interesting.

Watch and pray.!!!..

"My Word silenced, souls lost, sin abounds and still My people remain silent. There is no desire to repent for there is neither awareness of sin nor desire for God. But change is coming.!. Forces of evil countenance riding on white horses are coming quickly to deceive all who have not prepared, those whose lamps have grown dim from lack of oil. Only through pain will My people reach out to Me. Only through much sorrow will many come to faith. This is not My choice, but theirs.

Do not be sidetracked.  Pray and proclaim My Word and remain alert to the tricks and lies of the enemy. Be alert.!!. Encourage those that fear. Pray for those that doubt. Be faithful and be prepared to shine.

Choose when to speak and what to say carefully. Be cautious, be prepared, but do not remain silent.  Pay attention to the rustle."

Rustle- Strongs 5287- shake, steal, overthrow, lose, tumble about
Rustle- Strongs 7494- quaking, rattling, trembling, tumult

"Battle plans have been set in motion by the enemies of God to weaken the resolve and faith of many. Do not be sidetracked, do not be overcome neither be dismayed.  These times must be. But keep trusting in Me - knowing that with Me, all things are possible. My sheep hear My voice. My sheep do not scatter at the first sign of danger. My sheep follow The Shepherd wherever He leads.

Day after day your eyes will be illuminated to see truth. Those who seek Me will not be ashamed. I will reveal My plans, My purposes when it is time. The spirit of antichrist is upon the earth, but My people will not be taken by surprise if they will follow Me. Walk humbly before Me - day by day seeking My face, reading My Word, seeking the good only found in Me - your Saviour and your LORD."

"There is no place to run, no place to hide apart from the Living God. My people have hewn cisterns that hold no water. My Word has become faint in the world. My water, The Living Water, remains strength for all who will drink. "Do not rise up but bow down. Bow down before Me" says the LORD.  " Acknowledge your dependence on Me and know that apart from Me you can do nothing.

Move in the annointing of the Holy Spirit. Study to show thyself approved of God. A workman who need not be ashamed.  Rightly dividing The Word of God.

Be bold, be brave, and be at peace."

"As the deer pants for the water brook, so my soul pants for You, Oh God. My soul thirsts for the living God..." Psalm 42:1-2

America pants not for living water but for bigger houses, wide screen televisions, new cars, condos on the beach; anything, everything but the living God. Blessed more than any other nation in history, America has taken each blessing and with arms outstretched reached for more. Americans race past the lost and hurting in their quest for bigger and better.

The LORD says:

"Order on order, order on order. Line on line, line on line. A little here, a little there. Indeed, He will speak to this people. Through stammering lips and foreign tongue, He who said to them "Here is rest, give rest to the weary," and "Here is repose," but they would not listen. So the Word of the LORD to them will be, order on order, order on order, line on line, line on line, a little here, a little there" That they may go and stumble backward, be broken, snared and taken captive." Isaiah 28:11-13

Just as the people of Israel did to the prophet Isaiah, the people of America have done to the prophets sent to them by the Lord. America has rejected sound doctrine, which comes line upon line and precept upon precept. The word of the Lord sounded to them like stammering speech and like a foreign language. Therefore, the Lord will now intentionally speak to them in ways they will not understand, thus causing them to stumble, fall down, be broken, and taken captive.

I have stood faithfully as a watchman on the wall for several years.  Attempting to share encouragement, admonition, and the heart of God for His people. I pray I have been faithful and will continue to be faithful to do what God has called me to do, and now...

On July 27, 2015, thirty days after the SCOTUS decision to legalize same sex marriage shaking their fist at God, I began to hear the still small voice of the Holy Spirit speaking to me.

"Weep not for what is coming upon America. Weep not for what has and will be lost. Rejoice that your name is written in heaven. Give ear to hear My Word of admonition.

Many have been called - but few have answered. Judgement has been pronounced upon America. A righteous and holy God cannot remain silent in the midst of corruption. America has sown the wind and must now reap the whirlwind."

On August 4, 2015 following the release of video showing the agenda of Planned Parenthood Holy Spirit showed me that America had been given by our very loving, long suffering God not one but two opportunities to do what was right in His eyes. One to rise up against the SCOTUS decision, secondly to take a stand against Planned Parenthood- neither of which happened.  I heard:

" Hear the Word of the LORD. you who walk up rightly. Iniquity rules and reigns in the hearts and minds of millions of church goers. Those who have a form of godliness but deny My power.  Why do you not turn away from evil? Why do you allow sin in My house?  Sin is a reproach to any nation, even America. (Isaiah 26)  America has been weighed in the balance and found wanting."

Our nation is racing toward destruction. Rejection of God has brought judgement to this nation.  As Holy Spirit leads I will share what He is speaking to me.  Drastic changes are coming.  The harvest is ready.  We must be laborers in His field.

The following, written some years ago by a young man to his fiancé advising her of his intent to break their engagement:

"We Communists have a high casualty rate. We're the ones who get slandered and ridiculed and fired from our jobs and in every other way made as uncomfortable as possible. A certain percentage of us get killed or imprisoned. We live in virtual poverty. We turn back to the Party every penny we make above what is absolutely necessary to keep us alive. We Communists don't have time or the money for many movies or concerts or T-bone steaks or decent homes and new cars. We've been described as fanatics. We are fanatics! Our lives are dominated by one great overshadowing factor - the struggle for World Communism.

"We Communists have a philosophy of life which no amount of money could buy. We have a cause to fight for, a definite purpose in life. We subordinate our petty, personal selves into a great movement of humanity. And if our personal lives seem hard or our egos appear to suffer through subordination to the Party, then we are adequately compensated by the fact that each of us in his small way is contributing to something new and true and better for mankind. The Communist cause is my life, my business, my religion, my hobby, my sweetheart, my wife and mistress, my bread and meat. I work at it in the daytime and dream of it at night. Its hold on me grows, not lessens, as time goes on. Therefore, I cannot carry on a friendship, a love affair, or even a conversation without relating it to this force which both guides and drives my life. I evaluate people, books, ideas, and actions according to how they affect the Communist cause and by their attitude toward it. I've already been in jail because of my ideas, and if necessary, I'm ready to go before a firing squad."

If only Christians had the same commitment - we could change the world.!.  IF ONLY.!!.

BAINBRIDGE, GA – Ms. Josephine King of Bainbridge, Georgia is no longer  welcome through the doors of the church where she has worshiped for over 50 years. The 92-year-old was recently given the stunning news in the form of a letter signed by her pastor.

Ignoring Ms. King' numerous health issues and inability to attend church, Senior Pastor Derrick Mike’s reason for excommunicating one of First African Baptist Church’s oldest members came down to her not dropping enough money into the offering plate on Sunday mornings.

“Josephine King is no longer considered a member of the First African Baptist Church of Bainbridge, Georgia."  The explanation given was that Ms. King “has shown non-support” towards the congregation in areas of“constant and consistent financial and physical participation.”  D.C. Clothesline.com

Come out of her and be yea separate seems to have been overlooked in the reading of The Word by this "pastor" as his actions seem much like the world of the twenty-first century.

VERY INTERESTING.!!!!.  IMO

This week the U.S. Embassy to the Holy See has begun its move to a new building – which shares the same campus as both the U.S. Embassy to Italy and the U.S. Mission to the United Nations. “We are looking forward to a larger, more modern facility that can provide a more functional space for our staff,” U.S. ambassador Ken Hackett said in an Aug. 11 statement announcing the move.

He said the United States’ relationship with the Holy See “is important and continues to grow as we work together to promote human rights, social justice and peace around the world,” adding that the new facility provides “a more robust workspace” to carry out their ongoing collaboration with the Vatican and with the Catholic humanitarian and academic communities in Rome. “We will have greater space for the future possibility of staff increases, and we will have a significant increase in space to host visitors for meetings and events.” Although the new building will be on the same property as the other two U.S. missions in Rome, it will have a separate space and entrance.

It is interesting to note how Freemason-Masonic Lodges across the globe have embraced Pope Francis.

Interesting since the RCC' stand against Feeemason appear clear:

"In order to close the widely open road to iniquities; which might be committed with impunity and also for other reasons, just and reasonable, that have come to our knowledge . . . We have resolved and decreed to condemn and forbid such Societies, assemblies, reunions, aggregations or meetings called either Freemasonic or known under some other denomination. WE CONDEMN AND FORBID THEM BY THIS, OUR PRESENT CONSTITUTION, WHICH IS TO BE CONSIDERED VALID FOR EVER."

Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI), then Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, on November 26, 1983, emphasized:

The faithful who enroll in Masonic associations are in a state of grave sin and may not receive Holy Communion…. Consequently, neither the excommunication nor the other penalties envisaged have been abrogated.

Here is an explanation of the difference between the terms ISIS and ISIL.

ISIS = Islamic State of Iraq and Syria.  Iraq is to the east of Jordan (shaped like the hatchet) and Syria is to the north.

ISIL = Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.  Iraq is still to the east of Jordan, and the Levant is a term that comes from the rising (of the sun, i.e., to the east) - and is basically the land along the Mediterranean - that includes Lebanon, Israel, and those countries along there.

By saying ISIL, you negate Israel as its own country and lump it in with the rest of the countries along the Mediterranean - and Israel sort of disappears (loses its sovereignty) and becomes part of the Levant - which is therefore part of ISIL.

If you've wondered, as I have, why all government agencies and especially BHO calls it ISIL and even spells it out every time it's used, instead of ISIS as the rest of the world here's the answer.
    

Decoding Obamas speech reveals some startling revelations.

In one press conference after another, when referring to the Muslim terror super-group ISIS, United States President Barack Obama will use the term ISIL, instead of their former name ISIS, or current name Islamic State.

Have you ever wondered about that?  Here is the difference: What makes up the near exact center of the Muslim Levant ?  Israel. ISIL stands for the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant.

Now, to us Westerners we don't really make much of a distinction, do we?

No, honestly from our perspective its all about the same.  But how would a Muslim living in the Middle East view it?

Just what is the Levant anyway? Lets take a look.
    

The geographical term LEVANT refers to a multi-nation region in the Middle East.  Its a land bridge between Turkey to the north and Egypt to the south.

If you look on a map, however, in the near exact middle of the nations that comprise the Levant, guess what you see? Come on, guess! It's Israel.

*When Barack Obama refers over and over to the Islamic State as ISIL, he is sending a message to Muslims all over the Middle East, that 'he personally does not recognize Israel as a sovereign nation', but as territory belonging to the Islamic State.

Now you know why Obama says that he has no plan, no goal, and no stated aim for dealing with ISIS.  But he does have a plan, and its a really nasty, diabolical one.  Obamas plan is to drag his feet for as long as he can, doing only the bare minimum that Congress forces him to do.  His plan 
to buy ISIL as much time as possible to make as many gains as they can.

Listen as Obama and his press secretary and the spokesperson for the State Department and his Joint Chiefs of Staff painstakingly spells out the letters I-S-I-L so there is no doubt in your mind.
    

And its working.

The Islamic State has garnered millions of dollars, a vast cache of weapons, and in their latest foray have captured Syrian fighter jets and now 12 commercial passenger planes.  With each passing day that Obama fulfills his stated aim of doing nothing, the Islamic State grows by leaps and bounds. The ultimate goal, of course, has not changed and will never change.

The ultimate goal is the destruction of Israel.

Now you know a little bit more about why Obama chooses his words so carefully.

"A Jew who votes for Obama is like a chicken that votes for Col. Sanders."

     In God We Trust, but Never Trust Obama

Goddess Kali - proudly displayed on NYC Empire State Building. Goddess Kali is the Hindu god of death and destruction. Kali means black, time, death, lord of death.  She is known as the "Black one" or "Dark One."

Pastors confessing they no longer believe in God adamantly declaring they are Christians. Fighting to keep their position as shepherd of their flock.

Same sex marriage joining the murder of children to become the law of the land. Clergy proudly declaring Planned Parenthood is doing "gods work."(little g intended. not sure who they are referencing).   Selling murdered babies organs found by digging through body parts with tweezers. Video after video shows deals being negotiated yet nothing changes, and the diabolical disregard for life continues.

But, God will have the final Word. Sin is a reproach to any nation and America has sinned greatly. With hardened hearts our nation has rejected God as man continues to do what is right in his own eyes. Refusing correction, seeing no need to repent, America rushes headlong down the path of destruction, with the church leading the way.

There is NO place to run, there is NO place to hide save in Christ Jesus our LORD, but it appears CERN will try. Just as Nimrod shook his fist at God CERN appear  to be, as was Babylon of old, on the precipice of attempting to be "like God."

It has been settled in heaven and soon it will be settled on earth.

Iran’s claim that it is performing road work at its Parchin military site came under question Friday by a prominent US think tank, which noted independent satellite imagery did not support the explanation, Israel Hayom reported. Instead, the Institute for Science and International Security said it appears the Islamic Republic is trying to sanitize the site ahead of announced international inspections.

The Parchin site has faced the suspicions of many countries as being used for nuclear experimentation, a claim Iran flatly denies. Recent vehicle movement at the site was explained away as road work near the Mamloo Dam.

The Institute for Science and International Security, however, issued a fresh analysis of the situation, saying in a statement, “Commercial satellite imagery does not support the Iranian explanation.

"....be sure your sins will find you out." Numbers 32:23

Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's "interference" in US affairs is 'unprecedented,' US President Barack Obama asserted during an interview which will air in full Sunday night. 

Speaking to CNN interviewer Fareed Zakaria, Obama addressed tensions between himself and his Israeli counterpart over the Iran nuclear deal, arguing that Netanyahu's opposition to the deal is wrong. 

Zakaria asked Obama if it was “appropriate of a foreign head of government to inject himself into an American affair” to the extent Netanyahu has, and if he could recall similar conduct by another foreign head of state. 

The US President tried to dodge the question, suggesting that Zakaria should pose his query directly to Netanyahu. Obama did, however, note that he could not "recall a similar example." 

In March, in the midst of world powers' negotiations with Iran, Netanyahu spoke out against a potential accord before the US Congress, incurring the wrath of the Obama administration. 

But tension between Israel and the United States has remained high since the deal's announcement last month, with Obama recently singling out the Jewish state as the only country who opposed the agreement.

In his interview, though, Obama was quick to stress the deep relationship shared by the US and Israel. 

Asserting his ability to prove Netanyahu's basic position wrong, Obama claimed the deal was the best way to ensure Iran would not acquire nuclear weapons, making it a good agreement for the US and especially good for Israel.  Arutz Sheva Reporting

American government has set its citizens on a collision course with Creator God, and the Body of Messiah remains silent, ineffective and asleep on its watch.

In a speech at American University in Washington, Barack Hussein Obama sent a message to Jerusalem: You are indeed alone.

While he said he “deeply shares” the American people’s “sincere affinity” for Israel and remains committed to maintaining its “Qualitative Military Edge,” when it comes to your government’s ferocious but “wrong” opposition to the nuclear deal with Iran, he made clear, you are on your own.

“Because this is such a strong deal, every nation in the world that has commented publicly, with the exception of the Israeli government, has expressed support,” Obama said. “The United Nations Security Council has unanimously supported it. The majority of arms control and nonproliferation experts support it. Over 100 former ambassadors who served under Republican and Democratic presidents support it.”

Dark clouds continue to overshadow the brightness that once was America.  With the stroke of a pen, or a few carefully spoken words by forces of evil, America slips further and further away from Creator God.  Choosing to ignore good - America' leaders continue to run headlong into a conflict with God.  A conflict with eternal consequences. A conflict America cannot win.

Did you know that Planned Parenthood (PP) — where abortion accounts for 94% of its business — has a Clergy Advisory Board (CAB)?

PP describes the board as  a “network of clergy members from a variety of denominations throughout the religious community”.

On the heels of the pro-life Center for Medical Progress’ (CMP) release of a series undercover videos showing PP officials cheerfully chatting and haggling about the harvesting and sale of aborted baby body parts, its Clergy Advisory Boardreleased a statement yesterday condemning CMP, the maker of the videos.

Insisting that Planned Parenthood is simply “doing God’s work,” the board called the videos — not PP’s dismemberment and sale of aborted babies — “theologically and morally reprehensible.” The clergy advisors accuse CMP of conducting a “smear campaign” and using “fraudulent and extreme tactics to spread false allegations about Planned Parenthood’s role in tissue donation.” (Fellowshipoftheminds.org)

This makes me sick to my stomach.!!!!!.. Doing God' work.??. 

The Senate's vote to defund Planned Parenthood seemed to be more about political optics than actually casting votes for the right thing. A bill that would have halted $500 million in annual federal funds from going to Planned Parenthood died when it failed to procure the necessary support.

I had expected nothing less from America'  political pundits be they Republican or Democrat who chatter and chirp but rarely accomplish much in the way of doing what is right, or noble or moral or godly.  However, I felt this was an opportunity, given to America by God, to stay the hand of our very long suffering, ever loving God. He had given America one more chance to turn the tide and do what was right in His sight.  Perhaps not politically correct in the eyes of far too many, but right in the eyes of God, yet....

American' - whether Christian or secular have no fear of God.  The fear of God, the beginning of wisdom holds no interest for the masses. Reverence for God and His Word is not found in the vast majority of churches today, as is evident from the nightly news headlines and Sunday sermons.  Too many are standing on the premesis rather than standing on the promises.

God gave us opportunity to stop the murder of the innocent, but it appears America wasn't interested.

Trim your lamps and prepare for battle (Ephesians 6). And to God be the glory.  He is our Resurrection and our Hope.  Fear not whatever awaits the true believer in the future.

 We NEVER walk alone.!!!!

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal canceled Planned Parenthood’s Medicaid contract with his state Monday, moving to strip the organization of funding in the wake of disturbing undercover videos that appeared to show employees haggling over selling fetal tissue obtained from abortions.

Mr. Jindal said the videos showed Planned Parenthood workers admitting they engaged in late-term abortions and did them to try to leave fetus body parts as intact as possible so they could be sold later.

He said his state health department believes Planned Parenthood’s local affiliates could be breaking laws that prohibit groups that take funding from encouraging women to have abortions.

“Planned Parenthood does not represent the values of the people of Louisiana and shows a fundamental disrespect for human life."

A small flicker of light in this very dark nation. PLEASE continue to pray God continues to expose the dark sinfulness that is abortion. Pray for multitudes of strong voices to speak out against this horrific murdering of the innocent.

One must have knowledge before imparting knowledge. One must have fire in order to kindle fire.

It is not until God bursts through the veil, revealing Himself in our hearts through faith in His dear Son and gives us a consciousness of personal acceptance with Him, shedding abroad His love in our hearts, destroying unbelief, burning away sins, consuming selfishness, and filling our soul with the passion that filled the heart and soul of Christ Jesus that men become soul winners and true followers of our Jesus Christ our LORD.

10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.

15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise. Psalm 51
