1.30.23 If You Want to Eat, You Need to Pray

 The globalist war on humanity continues with one of the largest egg producers in the country burning down over the weekend.  Coincidentally Bill Gates does not want us eating meat or chicken eggs anymore.  You know, the same guy who has been trying to "de-carbonize" us as carbon based life forms.  So another day, another food producing plant burned to the ground and guess who is not raising the alarm?  The "good guys" in con-gress.  Supposedly these are the people who were supposed to rescue us from the demonic party.  Where is the alarm?  Where is call to protect our food supply?  Where is the money allocated to food supply security?  Where is activation of the national guard or whatever else needs to be done to protect our food supply.  If starving out a population is not a national security issue, what is?

But no, the silence is deafening.  The "good guys" have sold us down the river just as much as the demonic party has.  That could be a real problem if one did not have another source of supply.  We have promises this world does not have:

Ps 33

18Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his steadfast love,
19that he may deliver their soul from death
and keep them alive in famine.

A politician is the lowest form of life found on planet earth.  All of the preachers and teachers telling us to "get out to vote" have been exposed as well.  How about this for a strategy?  Forget get out to vote and instead get down and pray.  The situation we find ourselves in is very similar to Israel back up against the Red Sea with Pharaoh and his chariots bearing down on them intent on slaughter.  Israel's answer was the Lord God.  Our answer will be the Lord God.  

Jer 17:5

This is what the LORD says: “Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the LORD.

The Lord has not counseled us to get worried, but we do need to get praying.  

Grace and peace

111, 222, 333 etc

 Now that 2022 is behind us, this servant still sees the 111, 222 etc all over the place.  Each time this servant prays "Lord, I see it but it is meaningless unless you tell me what it means."  Well, this past weekend more clarity was granted.  Where do we see this 111, 222 stuff?  On clocks.  What do clocks do?  Tell time.  This is our first clue, there is a time element to this.  It was written in a previous post that 111, 222 etc is a countdown, the recently added information confirms this.  It is both a countdown and telling us what time it is.

So, these numbers are a time thing and a countdown.  Next clue, how far can we "count" doing this repeating number thing on a digital clock?  Here is how far:

111, 222, 333, 444, 555.  <That's how far you can see these numbers displayed.  When this numerical count has completed on the clock, what is the next number in the sequence?  666.  We might respond to this "well this is all very interesting but is that it?"  The key takeaway from this countdown is not so much that it exists but that it has started...

While this world is searching for their anti-Christ we are watching for our Lord Jesus Christ.  He told us over and over again that He will show up at some point unannounced and unexpected by most of this world.  He also told us that while this world will be blindsided, we should be fully awake and expecting His arrival.

Matt 24

36“But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son,^b but the Father only. 37For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 38For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, 39and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 40Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left. 41Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one left. 42Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. 43But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. 44Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

Matt 25

1“Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps^a and went to meet the bridegroom.^b 2Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, 4but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. 5As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept. 6But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ 7Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. 8And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’ 10And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. 11Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ 12But he answered, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ 13Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.

Luke 21

34“But watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. 35For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

The Lord does not throw words around at random.  When He repeats Himself we need to be listening.  Unfortunately, many discount the Word of the Lord for man made pet doctrines. He told us exactly what is going to happen and how we are to deal with it.  The Lord God told us to pray for escape.  Amazingly many who call themselves Christian throw this instruction back in the Lord's face.  They not only refuse to pray for escape but teach others not to as well.  That advice is up there with telling people not to get on the ark right before the flood.  Brilliant!  

Anyhow, as time goes by we receive more clarity.  Revelation means revealing... As the things the Lord God told us would happen approach, so does the revealing of things.  A look around at what is happening in the world should leave us unsurprised by any of this.  The Lord told us what would happen and it is all proceeding like clockwork.  

So, as believers what do we do with this information?  When the Lord tells us the countdown has begun, we shouldnt really be surprised but when we actually receive this information as real it should be a catalyst for action.  What kind of action?  The "us doing our job" kind.  This takes us right back to the counsel of the Lord going back a few years now:

1.  Talents/skills/abilities.  You have them.  Develop them and put them to work. (2020 through now)

2.  16Rejoice always, 17pray without ceasing, 18give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (added for 2023)

Please note that none of this information is particularly new or revolutionary.  Its all been in the Book for thousands of years.  Is it a surprise that the Lord is telling us now to do what He told us to do from the beginning?  The difference now is that we have multiple avenues information coming in that tell us time might be shorter than we think.  If time is short that means we need to get to work.

We can apprehend the shortness of time not only by this 111 countdown thing but also by the flurry of activity that our enemy is in.  Every day we receive new information of some kind of new attack on humanity by the servants of our spiritual enemy.  They are trying to kill, steal and destroy at a pace that may be unprecedented in history.  This also fits the bigger picture because that is how the time of the end will play out according to the Word of the Lord.

So, in closing it appears the countdown to the end has begun.  If we were wondering if it had or not I guess now we know.  What if the countdown is wrong?  Then we will be found praying believing and doing our job the way we were supposed to anyway....What if the countdown is right though?  Then we really should be doubling down on staying focused on what the Lord told us to do.  The world might be going chaotic but what the Lord has called us to do is not.  

Open that Bible and start reading.  Get down on your knees and pray.  This servant would encourage you to pray with a list or spreadsheet or whatever you need to pray about everything, all the time.

Philippians 4:6 says don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell the Lord what you need, and thank him for all He has done. 

If we do what we were told to do, mountains will move before our eyes:

Mark 11:23

Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in their heart but believes that what they say will happen, it will be done for them.

The Lord is very good.  If you notice from the counsel the Lord has given this servant nothing in there says "get worried."  Instead we are encouraged to "get busy."  We are to get busy doing the things He told us to do from the beginning.  If we have not been doing these things and we have received warnings that time is short, then what are we waiting for?

We are dearly loved children.  Our Father in heaven wants us to be encouraged and as busy as He is taking care of our Kingdom's business.  Great is the Lord God Almighty who loves us and watches over us.  Glory to God.

Grace and peace

More on 2023

 The Lord's counsel for the year 2023 as it has been given to this servant is to continue to develop and deploy our talents, skills and abilities (carried forward from the past couple years).  It is also this (especially for this year going forward):

Phil 4

4Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. 5Let your reasonableness^d be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 5

Ps 34

1I will bless the LORD at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

Psalm 100

1Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth!
2Serve the LORD with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!

3Know that the LORD, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his;^a
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

4Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!

5For the LORD is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.

 

2 Peter 1

1 Thessalonians 5

3According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. 10Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: 11For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

16Rejoice always, 17pray without ceasing, 18give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 

 Luke 18:1

1And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart. 2He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man. 3And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’ 4For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, 5yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.’” 6And the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says. 7And will not God give justice to his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long over them? 8I tell you, he will give justice to them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”

You get the idea ^^, He said it over and over again in different ways in different places.  And we know the Lord uses and economy of words so if something is repeated we need to pay careful attention.  So, it is interesting that in a year that the enemy has unleashed every weapon in his arsenal to make an end of humanity and bring in their demonic world order-the Lord counsels what He does above.  Interesting right?  All hell is breaking loose and we are to be in a place of rejoicing and thanksgiving-nonstop.  This is assymetric warfare at its finest.

The Lord has been leading us to this place over the past few years with constant and consistent pressure driving us to our knees more and more (or not).  This season is accomplishing many purposes, one of which is the beginning of separating the sheep from the goats.  One really does have to believe to do the things necessary to prevail in today's spiritual climate.  Playing church isn't going to cut it anymore.  Either we are ( we dont "go" to church, we are the Church....) the Church or c'est fini.  

So, the enemy has employed most or all of their weapons against humanity but they are missing one key ingredient.  They need their "superman" in order to get their demonic world order.  Joey diapers certainly isn't going to lead them to victory :P.  This is one of the scenarios that may have been impressed recently on this servant.  While the world is dealing with a nonstop assault on their very lives (whether they know it or not), the pressure continues especially with this war thing Ukr v "R" setting thge stage for guess who?  Their superman.

We know for a fact that he is not here yet because the Restrainer is alive and well on planet earth.  In fact the existence of that big country that starts with an "R" that is armed to the teeth and fighting the forces of the demonic world order is proof of this restraint in action.  We also know that their superman's arrival will be preceded by satanic signs and wonders:

2 Thess 2

. 9The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, 10and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.

^^This has absolutely positively not happened yet.  But, it could be getting close?  Who knows.  The timing of things is the Lord's alone.  We know what is going to happen, He already told us that.  The million dollar question is always when.....

So, interesting times.  It is time for us to do what we were put here to do.  We have things we are good at, develop and employ whatever that is.  Also while the enemy throws the kitchen sink at humanity we are to by force of will if need be in this season stay in a place of thanksgiving and rejoicing.  The Lord's ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts higher than our thoughts.  Stuff like this is how He rolls and it doesnt always make sense to humans.  Kind of like this:

Joshua 6

1Now Jericho was shut up inside and outside because of the people of Israel. None went out, and none came in. 2And the LORD said to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and mighty men of valor. 3You shall march around the city, all the men of war going around the city once. Thus shall you do for six days. 4Seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark. On the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets. 5And when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, when you hear the sound of the trumpet, then all the people shall shout with a great shout, and the wall of the city will fall down flat,^a and the people shall go up, everyone straight before him.” 6So Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, “Take up the ark of the covenant and let seven priests bear seven trumpets of rams’ horns before the ark of the LORD.” 7And he said to the people, “Go forward. March around the city and let the armed men pass on before the ark of the LORD.”

It doesnt always have to make complete sense to us we just have to do what we are told.  He is not going to tell us to do things that go against His own nature nor His Word so we have checks to ensure we are on the right path when we get our marching orders.  We have been given our orders.  What comes next should be glorious to watch.  The enemy has every worldly reason to be successful and yet they have hit setback after setback, snares and roadblocks preventing them from steamrolling in their demonic world order.

The Lord God is good.  If we stay on our knees in prayer and in His Word for guidance we will not be ashamed as this story plays out before our eyes.  Glory to God

Grace and peace

Pray For Peace

 Joey Diaper's administration approved transfer of US tanks to Ukr which is a major escalation of the conflict.  "They" are losing and are playing with fire now.  People have no idea how precariously we are all hanging by a thread.  In addition to trying to poison us, starve us, bankrupt us, and just about every other attempt to commit crimes against humanity, they are trying to get that big country "R" to do the rest of the dirty work for them.

We need to pray for peace while they clamor for war.  We need to get those prayer spreadsheets started because the enemy is in full court press mode against humanity.  It would be very easy now for things to spiral out of control.

We are here for a reason in this season.  The way things are going, none of us knows if we will see another peaceful day so we need to get down on bended knees (now) and pray that the Lord will intervene on our behalf. This is serious folks, as serious as it gets before all hell breaks loose.  We need to pray.

Glory to God

Grace and peace

Encourage The Saints

The Lord would have His saints encouraged today.  What is the Spirit of the Lord saying to the Church today?

Matt 17:20

He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

This here ^^ is a fact.  The nobody who writes to you can personally testify that the Lord God is answering prayer and is moving mountains for His people day in and day out every day right now today.  That does not mean we are free from problems and troubles of various kinds.  What did the Lord say?

John 16:33  These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”

Ps 34

4I sought the LORD, and he answered me
and delivered me from all my fears.
5Those who look to him are radiant,
and their faces shall never be ashamed.
6This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him
and saved him out of all his troubles.
7The angel of the LORD encamps
around those who fear him, and delivers them.

Note here ^^ in order to be delivered from troubles one has to have troubles first.....We are all going to face a never ending stream of "issues" in this life.  The Lord has addressed how that works.  We will have troubles but....We have access to power the world does not have.  We face never ending challenges but our Lord likes it that way.  The opposition we face in the world is on par with Israel's back to the sea in Egypt staring down Pharaoh's chariots.  We know how that story ended.  Or, its David vs Goliath again-same idea.

What "they" don't know or disregard is the tables are actually turned.  They are at the disadvantage and don't even know it.  They think their spells, sorcery, money, power, influence and coercion will win the day.  They thought wrong.  The best selling book in world history with a 100% track record of being right tells us when they think they've won, they lost again:

1 Thess 5:3 

While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

or we can consider the fact that when their "superman" shows up to "win" for them, this world gets pounded over and over and over again.  The enemy likes to deny the Lord God exists to our face but they are busy planning for "incoming."  If you have not seen this new city the globalists are building in Saudi, take a look here.  

What is this thing and why build it this way?  They know they are going to be on the receiving end of some pain.  Consider this "climate change" that is coming:

Rev 8:7

The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, and it was hurled down on the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.

So yea, they keep on doing what they are doing and this ^^ is what's coming.  That is where their new city comes in.  Notice what the city does not have alot of?  Natural landscape, like grass and trees and stuff that will get roasted when the Lord begins displaying His displeasure with the enemy and his servants.  So, this is how they plan to deal with it.  Good luck with that :)

This post was written today because the Lord wants us praying and expecting answers.  He is delivering on His promises 24/7-365 so let's stay busy in prayer.  Glory to God.

Grace and peace

More Stuff To Add to Your Prayer List

 The servant who writes to you today highly recommends praying with a spreadsheet or if you like paper, a good old fashioned written list.  Why?  Because the number of things we need to pray about in order to resist and restrain the enemy seems to grow every day.  What do we need to add to our list now?

1. Protect our birds from the Bird Flu

2. Protect us from Bill Gates' and friends "catastrophic contagion"

3. Protect us from the WEFs catastrophic cyber event

We need to add this ^^ to our list without forgetting to pray for the rest of our food supply, water, electricity, gas/diesel, communications/internet etc.  In case you didn't notice about one power station per week is being shot up now kind of like how our food processing plants have been torched at the same rate.

It appears to be some kind of rule that "they" have to tell us what they are going to do before they do it.  Now that everything they mention is happening shortly after they mention it perhaps its time we get this stuff on the restraint list immediately instead of shrugging it off.  By the way, notice all of the things the so called "good guys" who took control of congress recently are not doing?  Less than 2 years until another presidential (s)election and guess what they are doing about fraud/theft/integrity of elections?  Nada, zilch, zero.  How about raising a fuss about how our nations food and power supplies are under coordinated attack?  Nope, the silence is deafening.  "They" the so called "good guys" are maybe even worse than the demonic party because they masquerade as angels of light.

The good news is....are you ready for it?  The politicians are irrelevant :)  They don't matter even one iota.  What does matter is believers on their knees crying out to the Lord God for deliverance from these psychopaths.  If we pray, the Lord God will hear and answer.  And more great news here, when the Lord God decides to act, He cannot be stopped.  So, "they" can buy off and threaten all the human judges they want.  They will have a serious problem with our appeal case to the real supreme court that is not on this earth :).

Here is some encouragement the Lord provided recently:

Luke 18:1

1And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart. 2He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man. 3And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’ 4For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, 5yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.’” 6And the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says. 7And will not God give justice to his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long over them? 8I tell you, he will give justice to them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”

So yea, we pray and "they" will pay :)  Make no mistake, the Lord God is answering prayers 24/7 365 everywhere all the time right now.  Be encouraged, take heart and knock knock knock on heaven's door day and night.  He told us to do it.  If we like to eat and have water and power and stuff we need to get busy.  Pray without ceasing because our enemies are working around the clock to make an end of vast swathes of humanity starting with the ones they like the least (believers).  

One last technical note about when we are praying.  The Lord provided guidance for us this year along these lines:

1 Thess 5

16Rejoice always, 17pray without ceasing, 18give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 

The praying is in between the rejoicing and thanksgiving.  Think of it as gift wrapping your prayer with rejoicing then tieing a bow of thanksgiving around the wrapping while sending the prayers up.  We have been provided what we need to deal with the season we are in.

2 Peter 1:3

His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.

The days of being a lazy believer are over unless we want to get rolled by the enemy.  There is no such thing as "laity"  What a demonic slice of hell the idea of pastors/priests and "laity" is.  The Lord God says He hates it.  The idea that everyone who is not a "pastor" lays around while they do all the heavy lifting is sick to its core.  Its like the cook or supply guys in the military lording themselves over front line navy seals who do all the fighting.  Give me a break....

Anyhow this was not supposed to be a rant post.  We have been called to action in prayer and the Lord wants to encourage us.  Prayer works.  Please, if you dont have a list start one. When we all agree together in prayer in creates enormous problems for the enemy.  When they are telling us the evil they plan to do in advance, we need to put prayer pressure on it immediately.  Then lets see what happens :)  The Lord God is very good. :)

Glory to God

2023 Guidance Reinforcement

 Nothing new here this post is reiterating what the Lord has already counseled for this year.  It is reinforcement.

This is where the Lord wants us:

Phil 4

4Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice. 5Let your reasonableness^d be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 5

16Rejoice always, 17pray without ceasing, 18give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 

Ps 34

1I will bless the LORD at all times;
his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

Psalm 100

1Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth!
2Serve the LORD with gladness!
Come into his presence with singing!

3Know that the LORD, he is God!
It is he who made us, and we are his;^a
we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

4Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
and his courts with praise!
Give thanks to him; bless his name!

5For the LORD is good;
his steadfast love endures forever,
and his faithfulness to all generations.

The Lord God wants us in a place of thanksgiving, rejoicing and praise in all circumstances 24/7 365.  Obviously the enemy wants us in the opposite place of ungratefulness, despair and cursing.  We get to choose where we are going to spend our time.  Its called responsibility (response-ability), we have the ability to choose how to respond.

Yes, we are going to have trials and tribulations in this life.  It's going to happen, got it.  When it does happen how are we going to respond?  Thats it.  We have free will, we get to choose.  Getting knocked down is one thing, staying down is another.  Yes, the Lord understands when we take a blow and get knocked to the ground it hurts and there will need to be some time to recover but the less recovery time needed the better.  As soon as possible we need to be back in our lane of thanksgiving, praise and rejoicing.  The enemy will throw the kitchen sink at us to get us out of that place but we need to resist and persevere.

Those who wonder what the Lord's will is for us do not need to wonder no more:

1 Thessalonians 5

16Rejoice always, 17pray without ceasing, 18give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 

It is right there ^^ in black and white.

This will not always be easy, but nothing worthwhile ever is.  Our Lord wants us to cross the finish line strong, not slide into homebase with our pants on fire looking like we just barely made it.

We can finish with this today:

2 Peter 1

3According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. 10Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall: 11For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

He told us specifically what we need to do and how to do it.  Its up to us to exercise our response-ability to make sure it happens.  We do not know what exactly is coming at us this year of our Lord 2023 but we do know what we should be doing and how to respond.  The Lord our God is very good.  Please take some time out to enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise.  If we do what we were told to do, we will not be disappointed....

Glory to God

Grace and peace
