Have you been to JESUS for the cleansing power? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

As darkness descends upon America; how many truly know the cleansing power of JESUS? How many are washed in the blood of the Lamb? How many are trusting in His grace this hour? Or how many are just playing church; experiencing God, trusting in their religion, pious, sanctimonious and lost? The masses reject God, the elite deny God, the government shuns God and the fool says in his heart, 'there is no God.' I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath on the nations which have not obeyed, says the LORD. As good men do nothing the darkness continues to extinguish the light; spilling out across the nations, taking her citizens hostage. For it is because of these things that the wrath of God will come upon the sons of disobedience.

America, you will not be spared. God' wrath, His fury is even now being poured out upon your nation for the sins of her people have reached the throne room of heaven and God will stand in righteous judgment against you. 

Anguish of soul will not change the outcome. Prayers without repentance will be of no affect for My Word continues to fall on deaf ears. Look and see what surrounds; the unholy, the blasphemous, the godless actions of professing christians and atheist alike.This nation of iniquity has infiltrated the church and now both have brought great disgrace upon themselves while dishonoring God. Those who spurn the goodness of God will have much to regret in days ahead. Your tent pegs have been unhinged; enlarge the site of your tent, stretch out the curtains of your dwellings, do not hold back. Lengthen your ropes and drive the stakes deep. Your heart responds to a gospel that is not of Me. You worship the golden calf, you worship at the altar of Baal. I will pronounce My judgments on them concerning all their wickedness, whereby they have forsaken Me and have offered sacrifices to other gods and worshiped the works of their own hands. He who rejects Me and does not receive My sayings, has One who judges him; the word I spoke is what will judge him at the last day.

I have called yet few have answered, I have spoken but few choose to hear. Self-righteous opportunist stand proclaiming a lie as truth, a response as repentance; spiritualizing heaven, denying hell they seek the approval of men...Stand in the gate of the LORD' house and proclaim there this word saying "Hear the Word of the LORD, all who enter these gates to worship the LORD...Amend your ways and your deeds...do not trust in these deceptive words: This is the temple of the LORD." Our ways are not pleasing to God. Will you steal, murder, commit adultery, swear falsely, go after other gods and offer sacrifices to Baal and walk after other gods that you have not known and then come into this house, which is called by My Name and say, 'we are delivered'....

'I watch what this nation is becoming in horror and with great dismay. In horror, because I see the similarities between the actions we are undertaking, and the actions every empire that crumbled under the weight of its own hubris has taken in the past. With dismay, because it is now evident we have not learned the lessons of those who came before us, and are now doomed to suffer the same fate.' Michael Boldea

How long America, how long church will you remain in darkness? How long will you reject The Word as you embrace the ways of the world? How long will you sit in silence allowing the iniquity, the wickedness, the evil to advance? For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who hold the truth in unrighteousness. He that believes on the Son has everlasting live; and he that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abides on him.

Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known to God. In the midst of adversity, when all appears lost and darkness surrounds is thanksgiving the first thought that comes to mind? Prayers remain unspoken as we gossip, doubt, grumble, blame others, kvetch, accuse, but give thanks, pray!?!!!  

But I trust in You, LORD; I say, "You are my God." My times are in Your hands; deliver me from the hands of my enemies,  from those who pursue me. Let Your face shine on your servant; save me in Your unfailing love. Not so in America; Americans by the millions no longer trust God.  Standing on the sidelies, detached, unresponsive; by their silence supporting abomination, perversion, greed, murder, immorality. Rejecting God this nation stands condemned.  

Radical reprobates who live as enemies of the cross of Christ, whose end is destruction...their glory is in their shame, have taken control of America without a shot being fired. This is what the LORD says: ... I have listened attentively, but they do not say what is right. None of them repent of their wickedness, saying "What have I done?" Each pursues their own course like a horse charging into battle. Even the stork in the sky knows her appointed seasons, and the dove, the swift and the thrust observe the time of their migration. But My people do not know the requirements of the LORD. For the LORD our God has doomed us to perish and given us poisoned water to drink, because we have sinned against Him. We had hoped for peace but no good has come, for a time of healing but there is only terror. The choice is yours. Will you stand in the gap for the nation? Will you pray, will you repent, will you turn? Will you stand idly by waiting for Donald Trump to "Make America Great Again'? Will you fall upon the Rock that you might be broken, or will the Rock fall upon you that you be crushed?

How many times has 2 Chronicles 7:14 been repeated; all to no avail? IF My people, who are called by My Name, will humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. How many times must Holy Spirit remind us of our sins and our need to repent and be reconciled to God. Time and time again He has spoken yet America continues to fall further and further from God, embracing evil, refusing to humble themselves, refusing to repent. America, to her shame, continues to stand stiff-necked, proud and far removed from God. 

Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 

The harvest is past, the summer has ended, and we are not saved. 

With humility and thanksgiving for all Abba Father has done for me my heart rejoices. Giving thanks with a grateful heart, receiving His grace, His mercy, His forgiveness, His love. Hearing the still small voice of my God gives me pause; I wondered....What awaits the nation of America? What will befall a nation once so noble so stately, so grand? What will become of a nation that has rejected God at every turn? I shutter to think as I reflect upon the history of God' chosen people Israel. What awaits...?The gentle voice of Holy Spirit spoke; "Romans 11."  'What then? What the people of Israel sought so earnestly they did not obtain. The elect among them did but others were hardened. As it is written: God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that could not see and ears that could not hear, to this very day.And David says: May their table become a snare and a trap, a stumbling block and a retribution for them. May their eyes be darkened so they cannot see, and their backs be bent forever. If some of the branches have been broken off, and you, though a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others and now share in the nourishing sap from the olive root, do not consider yourself to be superior to those other branches. If you do, consider this, you do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in. Granted. but they were broken off because of unbelief and you (a professing believer) stand in faith. Do not be arrogant, but tremble for if God did not spare the natural branches (Israel), He will not spare you (a Gentile) either. Consider therefore the kindness and sternness of God; sternness to those who fell, but kindness to you, provided that you continue in His kindness. Otherwise, you also will be cut off. Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable His judgments and His paths beyond tracing out! Who has known the mind of the LORD? Or who has been His counselor? Who has ever given to God, that God should repay them? For from Him and through Him and for Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever! Amen'.What awaits America; I shudder to think.

….in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being corrupted in accordance with the lusts of deceit,  For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

"This is where we are just now. Darkness is covering the earth, and yet grosser darkness is going to cover the peoples of the earth. Let’s be realistic. The Bible reveals it clearly and we can see many evidences of a kind of darkness that we have never even contemplated before beginning to engulf the inhabitants of the earth. But in the midst of the darkness the message of God to His people is that the glory of the Lord is risen upon us. Here is the contrast. The light is getting brighter; the darkness is getting darker. We have come absolutely, conclusively to the parting of the ways. Neutrality from now on is ruled out. Whoever is not with Me is against Me, and whoever does not gather with Me scatters. Every one of us is going to have to make a decision and make a commitment. Do we love the light? We will come to the light. If we refuse to come to the light Jesus said it is because our deeds are evil.  This is the choice that confronts each one of us. Am I going to walk in the light? This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil.  Am I going to be identified with the light and the purposes of light in the earth? Or am I going to hide away in the darkness as it grows darker and deeper across the face of the earth? 

Nothing deceives God's people so much as to believe their salvation is a static condition that you arrive at by going forward at the altar of a church, saying a little prayer and shaking the pastor by the hand. That is a caricature of salvation. Salvation is not a static condition; it is a way of life." Secrets of a Prayer Warrior, Derek Prince  

"The path of the just is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day. The righteous will hold to his way, and he who has clean hands will be stronger and stronger.”

“For thus says the Lord of hosts: ‘Once more I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land; and I will shake all nations.” 

Only the hand of God keeps this cauldron of filth called America from tipping over. Only His hand of grace, mercy and love can keep this leaky boat filled with corruption afloat. But Jehovah God will not always withhold His judgments, one day the cauldron will tip over, soon the leaky boat will capsize...just as the tares are gathered up and burned with fire, so shall it be at the end of the age. "The Son of Man will send forth His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all stumbling blocks, and those who commit lawlessness, and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

Make no mistake, life as we know it; a life of freedoms, of affluence as compared to the wealth of the world, a life of opulence and ease will soon come to an end. Truth lies dead in the street, there is no fear of God, lies embedded themselves in the heart of man; few take the time to notice or seem to care as men scurry around in search of happiness, security, hope. Freedoms are subtly being taken away; lurking in the shadows, around the corner hides anti-semitism, an anti-christian bias, a rejection of truth. Men tilt at windmills, majoring on minors as laws regarding political correctness spring up to silence all dissenters. Make no mistake; by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

Your calling, your destiny is to be conformed to the image of the LORD JESUS Christ. A love of money replaced a love for God and the American way of living got in the way of a believers biblical way of worshiping God and now...No man can serve two masters. You have allowed the glamour, the promises the world offered to take you away from your appointed task;  destroying your destiny, rendering null and void your witness for Christ. For it is for this we labor and strive, because we have fixed our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of believers; who through Him are believers in God, who raised Him from the dead and gave Him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

...I have this against you; you have abandoned your first love. Repent then, and turn back, so that your sins may be wiped away that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the LORD, and that He may send JESUS, the Christ, who has been appointed for you.

So I took all this to heart and concluded that the righteous and the wise, as well as their deeds, are in God's hands. Man does not know what lies ahead, whether love or hate. Our times are in His hands...Make no mistake, we truly do not what tomorrow will bring.

"For you are a holy people to the LORD your God; the LORD your God has chosen you (both Jew and Gentile) to be a people for His own possession...and if My people, those who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray and if My people those who are called by My name, will seek My face and if My people, those who are called by My name, will turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sins and will heal their land; but...
America will fall. There is no help, no prayer that will save this nation, for a nation steeped in sin there is no hope. Trump will succeed and grow more powerful, be alert, be aware that what you see is a facade, a false front to cover what lies buried deep within. Think not that I came to save, I came to bring fire, to divide sheep from goats, there will be no peace, for division always brings pain. Stand strong in the days ahead, do not lean on your own understanding. Trust in the goodness of your God. My Name will be glorified in all the earth, and then the end will come.

Come, let us worship and bow down, Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker. For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Today, if you would hear His voice harden not your heart.

After reading the powerful dream Brother Marty Breeden shared, Holy Spirit spoke boldly to me.

"Hell is real, make no mistake. The road is narrow yet millions choose the wide road, the road that ends in eternal separation, the road that delivers unimagined suffering to those who have rejected the Salvation of JESUS Christ. Millions care nothing for the things of God, their lives reflect the choices they have made. O, that man would see the fallacy of his choices and come to repentance before his road ends in destruction. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to chains of gloomy darkness to be kept until the judgment...yet choices have been made, the course will not be altered for man languishes in rebellion, stubborn, enjoying the things of the world. Millions will not survive for they yearn for the things of the world and not the things of God. God is far removed from their hearts and minds. Evil reigns in those who reject the gift of Salvation; evil spews forth from the mouth of those traveling the wide road. 

It has begun; God' righteous judgment of the nations...Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell... Those who thought they had ample time to repent, those who chose to have just one more day to party instead of pray, another day of revelry instead of repentance. Great heartache and grief await those who die in their sin, unimagined pain, remorse and sorrow as the fires of hell burn hotter; living for all eternity aware of what was lost and the eternity that lies ahead."

And the Lord will cause His majestic voice to be heard and the descending blow of His arm to be seen, in furious anger and a flame of devouring fire, with a cloudburst and storm and hailstones. 

Shadows lengthen, darkness descends, night falls, the slumbering city awakens. Another day of darkness is at hand; a day filled with half-truths, mystery, turmoil and intrigue. "Woe to the rebellious children" declares the LORD, "to those who carry out a plan, but not MINE, who form an alliance, but against My will, heaping up sin upon sin. These are rebellious people, deceitful children, children unwilling to obey the LORD' instruction.

The weak wander aimlessly - lost, confused, disillusioned, unconcerned; but where are the warriors? The wealthy plan and scheme, are agitated, fretful, unconcerned; but where are the warriors?  Where are the warriors engaged in the battle, experienced in warfare, skilled in struggle, committed to The Truth... mighty men (and women), treading down the enemy in the mire of the streets in battle; and they will fight, for the LORD will be with them. 'But the American church is asleep, lulled to sleep by a satanic lullaby; all the Christians are sleepy.' (Sheep Among Wolves, FAI Studios)

Where is the fire that set apart the disciples at Pentecost? Where is the spark that ignited the Welsh Revival? Where is the flame of fire that set ablaze Azusa Street. Where are the men and women of purpose and determination, filled with devotion, fearless and faithful; devoted to their Saviour, their LORD their King? O LORD, do not Your eyes look for truth? ...Refusing to accept discipline, they have made their faces harder than stone and refuse to repent.   
"A pastor did what a pastor is supposed to do: he preached the gospel (homosexuality is a sin)! As a direct result of preaching the gospel, the sheep walked out and sought another shepherd who would not preach the gospel to them. And somehow I’m supposed to believe that today’s church is ready to take on the darkness. Somehow I’m supposed to believe that today’s church is fully equipped, in battle array, ready to make war against the enemy. The great falling away is upon us, and there is no great revival in sight". Michael Boldea, 10/02/19

Where are the warriors?

Two roads lie before each of us....the wide road and the narrow road. The wide road is well traveled; acquaintances, family, friends, neighbors, colleagues also travel this bright happy road. Pride and pleasure accompany each one as they make their way joking, jeering, laughing, mocking, along the beautiful tree lined path of comfort and ease. And there will be a highway called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not travel it, only those who walk in that Way - and fools will not stray onto it.

The LORD is not slow to fulfill His promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.

The narrow road offers hope, security, peace in the midst of the storm yet millions prefer the comfort and ease the wide road offers. The weak, the weary, the heavy laden, those who have chosen the narrow Way move steadily forward; upon one face a smile, another a tear, still others their eyes reflect a life filled with difficult days and often sleepless nights. Regardless the narrowness of the Way; the loneliness, the jeers, the jokes...men, women, the old the young continue to walk, some with a limp, a bruise, a scar, some supporting others as they make their way along the path. A twinkle in their eye, joy radiating from their face; undaunted in their task, refusing to stop, to turn around or even take notice of the wide road of comfort and ease they press on. Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.

Not everyone who says to me, 'LORD, LORD' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of My Father who is heaven..."behold, I am coming soon, bringing My recompense with Me, to repay everyone for what he has done. I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end." For if the message spoken by angels was binding, and every transgression and disobedience received its just punishment, how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation?

The one who scatters has come upon you. Man the fortress, watch the road; strengthen your back, summon all your strength. Prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of JESUS Christ.  

The LORD spoke clearly; Prepare My people for what lies ahead. Their lives are a tangled mess of uncertainty; they are ego-driven, arrogant, boastful and proud. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. The days are growing darker, amid light the darkness dwells. Sinister evil forces lurk about passing as political correctness, freedom of speech, climate change. Satan' agenda moves ahead within the confines of abortion clinics and halls of congress, shamelessly flaunted through gay pride parades, transgender drag queens, the insanity of gender reassignment, homosexuality, fake news, a compromised church and complacent christians. The hatred, the animosity between political parties satan' latest triumph as the battle for dominance and power rages on.

"Prepare My people for what lies ahead." To whom shall I speak and give warning that they may hear? Behold, their ears are closed and they cannot listen, behold the Word of the LORD has become a reproach to them; they have no delight in it. What can be said that has not already been spoken? What words will awaken the slumbering; the apathetic, stiff-necked, hard-hearted, disillusioned? You boast and brag yet turn away your ears from the truth and turn aside to myths. Man in his fallen state cannot see the approaching danger. For those who have turned a blind eye, who refuse to see truth, for those whose ears desire a gentler more pleasing 'gospel,' for those who have grown tired of the fight, the wait, the struggle...behold, the LORD is about to come out from His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; and the earth will reveal her bloodshed and will no longer cover her slain; I will punish the world for its evil and the wicked for their iniquity; I will also put an end to the arrogance of the proud and abase the haughtiness of the ruthless. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 

If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and The Truth is not in us.

 "Wake Up America and hear the Word of the LORD."

"Behold the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear. For your hands are stained with blood, your fingers with guilt. Your lips have spoken falsely, and your tongue mutters wicked things. No one calls for justice; no one pleads a case with integrity. They rely on empty arguments, they utter lies; they conceive trouble and give birth to evil...their deeds are evil deeds, and acts of violence are in their hands. Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways. The way of peace they do not know; there is no justice in their paths. They have turned from them into crooked roads; no one who walks along them will know peace. 

So justice is far from us, and righteousness does not reach us. We look for light, but all is darkness; for brightness, but we walk in deep shadows. Like the blind we grope along the wall, feeling our way like people without eyes. At midday we stumble as if it were twilight; among the strong, we are like the dead. We all growl like bears; we moan mournfully like doves. We look for justice, but find none; for deliverance, but it is far away. For our offenses are many in Your sight, and our sins testify against us. Our offenses are ever with us, and we acknowledge our iniquities; rebellion and treachery against the LORD, turning our backs on our God, inciting revolt and oppression, uttering lies our hearts have conceived. So justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter. 

Truth is nowhere to be found and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey."

The watchman is silent. It is time. His intent was that, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to rulers and authorities....and it happened, as he sowed, that some seed fell by the wayside; and the birds of the air came and devoured it...and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores and they did not repent of their deeds.

The watchman is silent, ever mindful of the task, watching, praying, standing in the gap for a world deranged, gone mad, intoxicated by sin. The depravity of man continues...his wisdom, his folly has taken its tole and now man lives in a vacuum, peace illusive, truth hidden among the thorns, the wisdom of the world has stolen the sanity of mankind. His choices become more irrational, demented as he continues to partake of the delicacies of the world. His life a confused mixture of half-truth, doubt, depression and fear. Lawlessness abounds. Unable to regain balance, void of stability, hope is lost as his soulish nature gains control. Seek the LORD while He may be found; call upon Him while He is near. 

Hope found in a bottle, a pill is not hope but insanity. Stability found in self-help seminars and motivational speakers is not stability but vanity, balance is unattainable without Christ at the center of your life. Your church preaches a false gospel if they do not preach JESUS Christ, Him crucified, sin, redemption and righteousness. Your pastor stands condemned if his words contradict God' Word. Acceptance of sin, excusing, justifying the sinner brings separation from God. Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

It is time; behold, days are coming, declares the LORD God, when I will send a famine on the land. Not a famine for bread or a thirst for water, but rather for hearing the words of the LORD. People will stagger from sea to sea and from the north even to the east; they will go to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, but they will not find it.

Grief and sadness, weeping and tears follow the watchmen, the prophet. Their messages, "repent, return and be reconciled to the God who loves you" grow stronger as the day draws near for all things to be accomplished; yet the messanger and the message are met with apathy, indifference and lack of concern. The message, lost amidst the sounding of brass and tinkling of cymbals, is dismissed; growing stale, redundant and irksome to many. Men and women, the old the young seek to be entertained, enlightened, illuminated yet the messanger continues to speak forth truth; knowing the message they must deliver falls on hard, calloused hearts and deaf ears. Go to this people and say, "you will keep on hearing but will not understand, and you will keep on seeing but will not perceive... for the heart of this people has become dull, with their ears they scarcely hear, and they have closed their eyes, otherwise they would see with their eyes, hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts and return, and I would heal them."

One cannot hide for long what is hidden in the heart, yet millions are determined to try. Man gravitates to feel good fantasies; the sensational, the thrilling as teachings on hell, the cross, eternal damnation, repentance and sin are scorned, maligned, ignored. The message of the cross doesn't interest the self-serving be they saint or sinner; for as I have often told you before, and now say again even with tears; many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and their glory is in their shame. Their minds are set on earthly things...It has become all to obvious that the message of the cross has become a fable, a yarn a tale. Denying The Truth masses scurry around seeking after the baubles the bangles the flash, the fake. To the pure, all things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure, but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. they profess to know God, but by their deeds they deny Him, being detestable and disobedient and worthless for all good deeds. 

Have we time to spare? you do not even know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Have we ignored warning signs to our own peril? There will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves. Have we become so comfortable in our palatial palaces and ivory towers that we fail to notice the instability, the greed, the pretense in our midst? His speech was smooth as butter, yet war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords. Have we relegated God to a benevolent doting old grandfather or a long-suffering docile benefactor; an Aladdin with a magical lamp granting wishes disguised as prayers? Have we allowed the ways of the world to determine, to influence our view of God? Do we seek His Word to lead and guide or do we consult the horoscope, phone a friend or roll the dice? Do we continue to do the same thing over and over expecting a different outcome? The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? "I the LORD search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds." 

Time is running out, we have no time to spare, no time to waste. Jesus will return; today, tomorrow, next month, next year...it matters not. Jesus will return, and millions are not ready. Millions think themselves ready, millions are deceived, misguided and fooled. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with Me. Is your faith based on 'biblical, foundational Truth' or have you taken a step back from Christianity to embrace the world system of "doing church" in hopes of finding a better fit for you and your family? These questions demand answers; answers that can only be found as you seek His face within the pages of His Word. Seek the LORD while He may be found; call on Him while He is near. Let the wicked man forsake his own way and the unrighteous man his own thoughts; let him return to the LORD that He may have compassion, and to our God,  for He will freely pardon...

The love of God is greater still, than tongue or pen could ever tell....so too is His judgment. Swift and final it will come for;  the LORD' anger burns against His people. People will be brought low and everyone humbled, the eyes of the arrogant humbled. But the LORD Almighty will be exalted by His justice and the holy God will be proved holy by His righteous acts. His mercies are new every morning, great is His faithfulness, but.. woe to those who draw sin along with cords of deceit and wickedness as with a cart rope. Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness. Darkness is descending upon the unprepared unregenerate souls that continue to reject all that is good as they embrace and cling to all that is profane and evil; without excuse they will stand before The Holy One of Israel to give an account. Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight, who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice to the innocent. Look around America, look around and see the devastation upon the land and be amazed. Yet for all this, His anger is not turned away, His hand is still upraised.

John had been saying to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife"...Mark 6:18

Voices are silent. Fearing repercussions; market place, academia, athletics, voices remain quiet. Free speech has died a slow death in America. It took time, it took a society of compromised, indifferent, apathetic spoiled citizens demanding to be heard at the expense of God and country to sell the nation into bondage. It took time for the church to crumble, for the government to pass legislation legalizing sin, for men to embrace and adapt to 'that's the way it is.' It took time for men to drift further away from God; but time passed, the church faltered, the government garnered more power and control and the citizens choose to accept laws directly opposed to God' Word rather than draw a line in the sand and take a stand. The wicked, in the haughtiness of his countenance, does not seek Him. All his thoughts are "There is no God." The church acquiesced to the world system, becoming a harlot rather than a haven, the government became more amoral and deceitful. American patriots took a stand often sacrificing home and health only to be met with ridicule and false accusations, soon became silent. To the pure, all things are pure but to those who are defined and unbelieving, nothing is pure, but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. They profess to know God, but by their deeds they deny Him, being detestable and disobedient and worthless for any good deed.

John the Baptist spoke up against evil. John refused to remain silent, refusing to accept the corruption, the sin he took a stand and it cost him his life. American' have refused to take a stand; accepting the laws, the lies, the fraud they plow furrows of resentment and hostility deeper and wider. America now stands condemned before a Righteous and Holy God; Do not be deceived,  God cannot be mocked. Whatever a man sows, he will reap in return. The one who sows to please his flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; but the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will receive eternal life. With hearts filled with shame and regret we must see what is before us; The star-spangled banner no longer waves o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave, repent and take a stand for truth.

A moment in time, again tragedy strikes; the church rallies, prayers are prayed, tears are shed. Time passes, hearts mend and life returns to 'normal' but nothing really changed.  Hearts remain cold, hard, distant from God. Self-serving and proud millions continue to reject the goodness of God. Compromised churches, placated parishioners and misdirected ministers light candles, lead the nation in a moment of silence and once again ask "Why?" The answer clearly visible yet men continue to grope around in the darkness scratching through the rubble in search of truth. For you hate discipline, and you cast My words behind you. Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes stubble and dry grass collapses into the flame, so their root will become like rot and their blossom blow away as dust. For they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel. Since you have rejected this word and have put your trust in oppression and guile, and have relied on them, this sin will become for you like a high wall, cracked and bulging, that collapses suddenly, in an instant. It will break in pieces like pottery, shattered so mercilessly that among its pieces not a fragment will be found for taking coals from a hearth or scooping water out of a cistern.

God has given man His Word, but man cares not. God speaks through circumstances but man will not listen. The voice of God grows faint as continually millions reject the teachings of God that they may embrace false teachers who tickle their ears and speak what their deceitful and desperately wicked hearts desire to hear. The church has become a proving ground for the profane, a three ring circus complete with clowns and a ringmaster. Refusing to judge, to speak against sin, to warn against hell, the church has developed a tolerant, inclusive mindset welcoming all to come enjoy the entertainment being held weekly under the big top. For thus the LORD GOD, the Holy One of Israel has said, "In repentance and rest you will be saved, in quietness and trust is your strength." But you were not willing.
