Christianity EtcA Happy Ending by Yefet(op): 7:54am On Sep 03, 2010
A HAPPY ENDING


Read Revelation 21:1-7 1


Then I saw "a new heaven and a new earth," for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look! God's dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 'He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death' or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."



5 He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."



6 He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.



One day it will be like this. The story of God’s dealings with humankind takes the shape of a circle. Beginning in a perfect garden where God and his creation lived in harmony. Then the humans in that creation declared their independence from God and hence were estranged from God. God sent Jesus his son to end that estrangement and in another more sinister garden Jesus declared his dependence on God and went on to bear our estrangement on himself on the cross. Those who trust in what he did and recognize their need of it are now reconciled to God and share something of his life.



The new order of God has invaded our present world but the present world corrupts and dilutes the rule of God. But one day, God’s victory will be consummated. That is what is described in this passage. And what a pity that countless Christians get sidetracked into figuring out the exact details of the picture portrayed. Jewish apocalyptic literature is complex and to take it all literally is not to take it seriously.



One day we will enjoy perfect relationship with God and one another. One day tears will be wiped away. One day the world will once again become what it was meant by God to be and the people he made for himself will find him…if of course they have entered his family through faith in Jesus. One day the indescribable will become describable and the partially tasted will become the fully experienced.



But this is not to say that Christians are to grit their teeth and merely endure this earth till it is renewed. God’s rule has invaded the present world even if it is not completed. The certain hope of perfect life in the future is not meant to dismiss this present imperfect life. We are called on to extend the rule of God in the present, to have his will done on earth as it is in heaven. We are called on to bring more of heaven to earth, even as we concede that we alone can’t perfect this earth. Just because we have to wait for heaven for every tear to be wiped away doesn’t mean we can’t dry some eyes right now.

More Warning Shots

By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.

In Revelation 10-14, John explains that the time for those who have refused to accept the Lord Jesus Christ is growing even shorter. This is describing the middle point of the tribulation. The first three and one-half years will be horrendous, but the last half of the tribulation will be unbearable.

The Antichrist will befriend the Jews, only to step back on his promises. Suddenly, he will break his agreement with the Jewish people and invade the temple. Many will lose their lives as this man of sin reigns over them.

Two of the greatest forms of deception are neutrality and complacency. The Antichrist will be a master in both of these areas. If we are not careful, we will be lulled into a spiritual sleep that prevents us from hearing and understanding God's warning.

You may wonder how this will happen. It is simple: Compromise and denial wear away at the sharpness of our convictions. Two years ago, we may have viewed a certain sin as being unacceptable. But today, in an effort to appear accepting and politically correct, many believers find themselves justifying and even embracing the very sins that God calls abominations.

What does this have to do with John's words in Revelation? Everything. The increase of sin and our acceptance of it points to the coming of the latter days when men and women will turn away from God and completely reject His holiness.

Instead of worshiping the Lord, they will worship themselves and their desires. Because Satan is a liar and a deceiver, it is imperative that we ask God to make us sensitive to His voice and convict us with a deep sense of warning whenever we start to drift away from Him.

They overcame [Satan] by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony (Revelation 12:11).
Christianity EtcWelcoming Strangers by Yefet(op): 10:11am On Sep 02, 2010
WELCOMING STRANGERS



Read Hebrews 13:1-2



1 Keep on loving each other as brothers and sisters.2 Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!



Whenever we think of hospitality, we think in terms of a willingness to have our friends around for dinner. We think of sociability, or even the ability to be our own mini-master chefs. Nothing wrong with that, though the Bible speaks differently. Hospitality in the Bible refers to the welcoming of strangers. It has little to do with cooking skills or fancy homes or outgoing sociability. It is to do with making space and time for someone who is as yet a stranger to us.



We find a parallel in how churches relate to visitors or strangers. Some churches consider themselves very friendly, but from observation, it is friendliness among friends. The sociable circle of friends is not always flexible and accommodating when a new person appears on the scene. The true test of a church's friendliness and hospitality is how it treats a visitor, not how it treats its regulars.



The stranger, the visitor, is to be seen as someone who may yet become a friend. A person sent from God to refresh and renew our existing church network. Which is why the passage above refers to them being like angels: messengers from God. So if we lock ourselves into our existing social networks and make no room for anyone else, we are missing out on a new thing God might want to be doing among us.



By all means have a circle of friends. But leave gaps in the circle for others to join in.

Christianity EtcPromises, Promises! by Yefet(op): 8:11am On Sep 02, 2010
http://www.hope1032.com.au LifeWords 2/9/2010



PROMISES, PROMISES!


Read Mark 14:27-31



27 "You will all fall away," Jesus told them, "for it is written: " 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.' [a] 28 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee."



29 Peter declared, "Even if all fall away, I will not."



30 "Truly I tell you," Jesus answered, "today-yes, tonight-before the rooster crows twice [b] you yourself will disown me three times."



31 But Peter insisted emphatically, "Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you." And all the others said the same.



Words are cheap. Making promises is a breeze compared to keeping them. Peter and the disciples found this out. Jesus warns them that they will desert him and they assure him that they will not. A fine statement of intention, no doubt genuinely meant. But when the crunch came, they scattered sure enough. It is so very human to proclaim our loyalty, our commitment, our love. It is so very human to do as Peter did and see himself as somehow superior to others in that he wouldn't let Jesus down whereas others might. He would be the exception to the rule Jesus was declaring.



Our lives are riddled with promises not kept and commitments not maintained. This does not make us bad people, but is a recognition of our humanity. We are full of good intentions. We will never make that mistake again. We won't fail a second time. Easier said than done. Or we remark to ourselves and others that while certain people would do certain regrettable things, we will not. We are not like them. Shades of Simon Peter who figured he would be the solitary rock like figure to Jesus in his hour of need. More like crumbling sandstone as it turned out!



There are times in our lives when we determine that from here on we will be totally devoted disciples of Jesus. Farewell half heartedness, goodbye to that besetting sin. And no harm in that either. But be careful not to contaminate such determination with pride. By all means offer our devotion to Jesus but never forget what Jesus remembers: we are all too human. The sins we see in others may find their way to us. The old ways we thought we had put away might just creep back up on us. All our promises to love and cherish and trust Jesus are made in the context of our fallen humanity.



The good news is that Jesus doesn't despise us for all that. He knows our actions so often fall short of our words. He knows we have trouble keeping our promises. He knows we like to think we are better than some others we could mention. His disciples did desert him for a while. But Jesus stuck with them. And it is so with us. The defining reality of our Christian life is not that we might occasionally desert Jesus, but that he will never ever desert us.

God’s Warning Shot





By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.





Today, many people think nothing about denying God and His power. They are careless with their references to Him and often tell jokes that belittle His strength.



However, a day is coming when they will laugh no more because God will have the final word. He will be the ultimate victor over all evil. Suddenly, men and women who have long denied His rightful place as Lord will begin to proclaim that they have known Him. But He will not acknowledge knowing them because they have repeatedly turned away from His love and followed after other gods.



You may be a believer and honestly love the Lord. But time after time, you find yourself rushing through the morning without a thought to His will or purpose for your life. Maybe you have felt Him leading you to support missionary efforts on the other side of the world, but you have dismissed the call, thinking that you were too busy to get involved.



Or perhaps you sense God wanting you to spend time with Him in prayer. However, you travel on through your daily routine and before you know it, you are turning the light out to go to sleep at night when you realize that you have not even whispered the first prayer to Him.



Throughout the book of Revelation, God is at work preparing an eternal place for those who have accepted His Son as their Savior. It is not too late to know the Savior! He continues to call to us--drawing us close and longing to build a personal relationship with us.



While no one knows the day and hour of Christ's return, we do know there will come a time when He will come back and gather those who truly worship Him unto Himself. Will you pledge all of yourself to Him today?





Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst (Revelation 7:16).

Christianity EtcDaily Spiritual Warfare Confession by Yefet(op): 8:52am On Aug 31, 2010
Daily Spiritual Warfare Confession

To Build Up Your Inner Man

Father God, today I release words of faith into the earth. I release spiritual seed that brings both a spiritual harvest and a natural physical manifestation into my life.

I have no cares, as I cast the whole of my cares over on Jesus. He cares for me. I have no heavy burdens because I’ve taken on Jesus yoke. His yoke is easy and His burden is light.

I will not allow my soul to be cast down. My hope and my trust is in God! I am above only and not beneath. I am the head and not the tail. I’m blessed coming in and blessed going out.

I am one spirit with God and I abide in Him. I have the mind of Jesus Christ and the wisdom of God flows in me and through me. My body is the temple of God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. The fullness of God dwells in me.

I exercise righteous authority over all the power of the enemy. I tread upon serpents and scorpions. Nothing, by any means, shall hurt me. I am skilled in the word of righteousness. I call things that are not as though they were. I will not fear what man or spirit can do unto me because no weapon formed against me shall prosper. Any tongue that may rise against me in judgment shall be condemned. Hallelujah!

The blood of the Lord Jesus Christ covers my spirit, soul, and body. It sanctifies me and separates me from the world, the flesh, and the devil. I not only have my senses exercised to discern both good and evil, I aggressively come against the kingdom of darkness spoiling every plot and scheme Satan has waged against me and those around me. Through Jesus Christ, I am more than a conqueror!

Taking my shield of faith, I quench Satan’s every fiery dart. I will not be distracted from doing God’s will. I will not stray to the left or the right. I have sound judgment and discretion. I refuse to be deceived by Satan in any way.

My mind is sharp. My spirit is keenly sensitive to disturbances in the spirit realm. I watch and pray. I prevent evil from taking place because the Holy Spirit shows me things to come. I am equipped with spiritual armor and weaponry. I am never caught off guard by the wicked one.

I sow fruits of righteousness. I will never back down from the truth, as I am bold as a lion. I refuse to be intimidated by the enemy.

All things are mine. I exercise dominion over the earth. I reign in life by Jesus Christ through grace and righteousness. My love weapon casts out fear and I aggressively love others unconditionally, for love never fails!

All of my days are filled with abundance and prosperity. My Jesus is Lord over all. I choose to be a vessel through which His will can be done in the earth.

In Jesus’ name, Amen! Thank You Father!!!

Got this from another list,

Glory be to GOD Almighty who reigns for ever and ever in Jesus name.
Christianity EtcThe Mark Of Redemption by Yefet(op): 1:08pm On Aug 30, 2010

The Mark of Redemption





By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.





In Revelation 7, there is a pause in the action. The judgment of God has been poured out on the earth. John writes:



I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. Then I saw another angel coming up from the east, having the seal of the living God. He called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea: "Do not harm the land or the sea or the trees until we put a seal on the foreheads of the servants of our God" (Revelation 7:1-3).



Never doubt the fact that God has complete control over your life and the situation you are facing. There may be times when you feel He is not listening or is busy with some detail on the other side of the planet. But He is never too busy to hear your prayers. He loves you far beyond anything you can conceive.



In Revelation 7, the Lord gives His angels charge over the wind and all its elements. Then a seal is placed on the 144,000 Jews who will testify to His salvation. These Jewish believers will be the last to proclaim God's forgiveness and salvation to those remaining on the earth before God pours out His wrath.



Today, everyone who believes in Jesus Christ is saved, and his life is sealed with a mark of redemption. If you have never accepted Jesus as your Savior, you can do this right now. If you know of someone who has never met the Lord in a personal way, pray for him and ask God to open his eyes to the truth of the Gospel.





Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb (Revelation 7:10).

wow I am just so excited and in child like anticipation of what Pappa God our ADONAI our Jehovah Rapha = The Lord Who Heals, and Jehovah Mekaddishkem = The Lord Who Sanctifies, amen, reveals. Vanita Ragbir









~~~~~~~~~






Today, God began speaking to me in such a powerful way.I will try to give you as much detail as I can for what he has shown me. This is what he said to me:









" I want you to create a "God Box", get a small box, cover it with anything you like, you can use wrapping paper or even color the box with things which has made you smile and bring you happiness, you can ever ask your children to decorate this for you, make this a personal box. Anything which represents joy in your life, allow this box to represent this.









Seal this box, so you cannot open it to take out anything. Make a slit on the top of this box.This ii where you will be placing everything which I command you. You are not allowed to remove anything from this box.









The reason I am asking you to make sure the box is beautiful on the outside is because this is how I see you, the box on the inside is filled with all the junk of your lives, hence the reason why you will be placing all these things inside this box. It will represent everything on the inside of you which you need to get rid of.









Between now and the 7th Sept, I will begin revealing everything in your life which you need to get rid of. Everything which is keeping you from all the blessings I have in store for you, everything which holds you back from where you should be, all your hurts, pains, bondage's, strongholds in your lives, generational curses, behaviors, attitudes, concepts, programming, areas of abuse, adultery, fornication, addictions, brokenness, diseases, sickness, mental disorders, lifestyles, loneliness, poverty, addictions, things which you have been holding onto like bitterness, resentment, anger, legalism, false doctrine, twisted doctrine, self hatred, shame, fear, guilt, unworthiness, eating disorders, self mutilation, suicidal tendencies, etc, everything in your past which is not of me, shall be brought to your attention to get rid of now,









EVERYTHING I AM GOING TO REVEAL TO YOU, EVERYTHING WHICH KEEPS YOU FROM HAVING A FULL RELATIONSHIP WITH ME, I AM GOING TO SHOW YOU,









The reason I have given you the 7th is because 7 is the number of completion. I am going to remove all the holds of the enemy in your life and root out all his fruits and replace them with seeds of MY fruits, this way you will begin to bear fruits which represents ME, says the Lord.












I want to make sure everything which is not of me is in this box at this time so you can be freed from this.












I need you to write them down as I begin this process and place each revelations in this" God Box". Some of the things you will place in this box will be pictures, tokens, notes, anything thing I reveal to you must go in this box. You need to keep a note pad and pen with you as you will need this at all times to make this transition effective for yourself. This way you will not forget all I am showing you, for this will be a very quick but busy and painful assignment for you. Stay close to me during this time and follow my every turn. Hold my hand and let me lead you. I need you to fully submit and trust me now. Your obedience is required to a very high degree.












I will be revealing ALL the areas which the enemy has a hold on you my child, as painful as this process is going to be, know I will be with you, holding your hand and showing you the way, says the Lord,












Be careful fo everything I show you during this time period. Many of you will say, there is no truth in the things which I reveal to you, but know these are things which your family, friends, ancestors who have partaken of things in these areas as well as curses which have been sent to you from others which are holding you bondage.












Be faithful to me and you will understand bit by bit as I reveal these things to you.












On the 7th Sept 2010, I want you to take this box and burn it. make sure everything is burnt completely. This represents a total disintegration of everything old. This is the cleaning process which I have ordained throughout history. There is power in FIRE, There is the Fire of MY Holy Spirit, Fire represented the way of burnt offering to Me, I give you my Fire. A devouring Fire, and everlasting Fire












"And his eyes were as a flame of fire"—A flame of fire is able to illuminate things. The eyes of the Lord are as a flame of fire, therefore He can search the reins and hearts of men (cf. Rev. 2.23). Nothing can be hidden from Him. Whenever His flaming eyes perceive something at odds with His holiness, He will judge and condemn. He is light and He himself is the Illumination. He will search out sins, causing the righteous to be preserved in purity and the evil to go to perdition. When the Book of Malachi speaks of the Lord's appearing, it asserts that "he is like a refiner's fire" (3.2). During the time of the restoration of Israel, the Lord will purge the Jews "by the spirit of justice, and by the spirit of burning" (see Is. 4.3-4).












When we stand before the judgment seat of Christ, the Lord will use fire to prove each man's work: "For the day shall declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself shall prove each man's work of what sort it is" (1 Cor. 3.13)—"Wherefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and make manifest the counsels of the hearts; and then shall each man have his praise from God" (1 Cor. 4.5)—"For we must all be made manifest before the judgment seat of Christ; that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he hath done, whether it be good or bad" (2 Cor. 5.10). We should remember that "there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do" (Heb. 4.13)












ALLOW ME TO BE YOUR CONSUMING FIRE, YOUR REFINING FIRE TO BURN AWAY ALL IMPURITIES












For those who have ears you will hear, for those who have eyes to see, they will be shown. My child heed this vision and you will be set free.












Do a fasting for this purpose so you will be able to hear my voice clearly as I show you these things in your life,












YOU ARE ON A FINAL COUNT DOWN MY CHILD, YOU ARE MY PURE BRIDE,












(I thought I should also post this for you as I was shown this by God on fasting)












The purpose of fasting spiritually is for us to get closer to God, so you and I can walk with God, be more attuned to Him because when you fast you take the time that you normally would be eating or pursuing other things. You simply study and pray. Fasting is for the purpose of our getting close to God, to humble ourselves, to become attuned to His will, His desires, to help us to be more clear- minded and focused in our approach. We all need forgiveness, we all need mercy, we need deliverance,and we need help from God. So God extends that to us. We need to have a proper attitude to help others and to serve them.












God Bless you all my brothers and sisters, I am so excited by this vision as God is taking us all to a very high level now, one of total obedience and purification, JESUS IS COMING VERY SOON, PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME!!!

Fasting is for the purpose of our getting close to God, to humble ourselves, to become attuned to His will, His desires, to help us to be more clear- minded and focused in our approach. We all need forgiveness, we all need mercy, we need deliverance,and we need help from God. So God extends that to us. We need to have a proper attitude to help others and to serve them.









God Bless you all my brothers and sisters, I am so excited by this vision as God is taking us all to a very high level now, one of total obedience and purification, JESUS IS COMING VERY SOON, PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME!!!

Guardian Angels?





By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.





There are many counterfeit religions in our world today. One that has been popular for years is the New Age movement. People who are involved with this false religion believe they have guardian angels who watch over them along with spirit guides to lead them.



However, there is only one source of wisdom, and that is Jesus Christ. Therefore, if we need guidance, God has promised to provide it through His Spirit. Any one of these activities--collecting crystals in order to gain spiritual energy,talking with spirit guides, or placing your trust in angels is deadly behavior because each of these involves Satanic activity.



God's messengers, His angels, were created to serve Him and not us. They are powerful creatures who have the ability to do God's bidding. Like army generals, they only take orders from their commander: the Lord. They never receive glory or honor unto themselves. Instead, heaven's angels are dedicated to the worship of God. All that they do is for one purpose, which is to glorify God. This is not true of the spirit guides or angels of the New Age movement. In fact, they are demonic messengers who seek to divert us away from the Lord.



There is only one person worthy of our love and adoration, and that is Jesus Christ. If you are involved in the New Age movement or know someone who is, ask God to open your eyes to His truth.



When you have Christ living inside of you, there is no need to seek the wisdom of counterfeit gods. You have all you need because an omniscient, all-powerful God is your guide and your Savior.





They are before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd (Revelation 7:15, 17).

Close the Door to Satan





By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.





In Revelation 6:1-2 John writes:



I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.



Many have wondered if this rider is the same one in Revelation 19. However, the rider in chapter 19 is called “Faithful and True.” This rider in chapter 6 is neither of these. He is a man of sin, war, and unjust conquest. The bow he carries is most naturally connected with the enemy of God’s people (Ezekiel 39:3). The crown he wears is false and has no diadems on it.



Though he comes through peaceful diplomacy, his mission is one of destruction.



Are you able to discern the difference between God and Satan? Most of us would answer yes immediately. But stop and think back through your activities over this past week. How many times were you tempted to do something that you knew was not pleasing to the Lord?



In many cases, we have become callous to God’s warnings and have embraced Satan’s schemes. We have left the doorway open to our minds and hearts by doing activities that are far from God’s desire for us, which is to be holy because He is holy (1 Peter 1:15-16).



As you read the book of Revelation, ask the Lord to point out any area of your life where you have allowed sin to enter and establish a stronghold.



Freedom comes when we recognize Satan’s schemes and turn instead to the One who is true and holy and offers us eternal life. As you pray, ask Him to cleanse you from all sin.





Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come (Revelation 4:cool.

Christianity EtcPowerful And Effective Prayers by Yefet(op): 6:59pm On Aug 25, 2010
By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.

Many people seem to think that their prayers don't matter. Even people who believe in the power of prayer don't always think of themselves as effective. To be effective means to get results and to "help make things happen." You ask, "Then how do I pray effective prayers?"

The Bible tells us, "The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective" (James 5:16). A righteous person is a person who is in right-standing with God. A righteous person has a personal relationship with Jesus as his or her personal Savior. A righteous person seeks to obey God and yield to the direction of the Holy Spirit. Righteousness means a person wants what is right according to the Word of God — he or she wants to see God's Truth and God's will established on this earth.

We see the effectiveness of prayer by a righteous person in the Old Testament prophet Daniel. His prayers provide a model for us to follow. Read his powerful plea to God in Daniel 9:4-19. Let's take a look at the key components of his prayer.

START WITH PRAISE

Daniel began his prayer by praising God. Daniel's focus was not on himself, but on God's greatness. He prayed to "the great and awesome God, who keeps his covenant of love with all who love him and obey his commands" (Daniel 9:4). He acknowledged God as absolutely righteous, but also merciful and forgiving. Begin your own prayers with praise and thanksgiving to God. Praise Him for His glory, His power, and His love. Thank Him for His daily provision in your life, your salvation, and your many blessings. Spend time just adoring God.

CONFESS YOUR SINS

Daniel confessed that Israel had sinned. He didn't try to dismiss, justify, or sidestep the fact that Israel had made a grave error. He didn't make excuses to God, but took responsibility. Daniel stated up front in his prayer, "We have sinned and done wrong. We have been wicked and have rebelled; we have turned away from your commands and laws" (Daniel 9:5). When you go to God in prayer, don't play the blame game when it comes to your sin. Acknowledge any element of sin or misdoing — intentional or unintentional — related to the situation or circumstance.

APPEAL FOR MERCY

Daniel appealed to God's mercy. He said, "O Lord, in keeping with all your righteous acts, turn way your anger and your wrath from Jerusalem — For your sake, O Lord, look with favor on our desolate sanctuary. , We do not make requests of you because we are righteous, but because of your great mercy" (Daniel 9:16-18). Acknowledge to God that you do not deserve His blessings, but you receive them because He is a merciful and loving God. Humble yourself before God, realizing that your strength and success come from Him alone.

PETITION FOR GOD TO ACT

Daniel very specifically asked the Lord to take action: "O Lord, listen! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, hear and act! For your sake, O my God, do not delay, because your city and your people bear your Name" (Daniel 9:19). Daniel's prayer was not selfish in nature, but he prayed for the Lord to show Himself strong so that the Lord might receive glory on this earth. We are to pray that God will act in a way that brings God the greatest glory and in a way that is the most profound witness that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God!

PRAY THE WILL OF GOD

How can you be assured that you are praying for God's will, and not your own to be done? Jesus said that we are to seek first the things of God and that God would respond by taking care of our needs. Immerse yourself in the Word of God. The more you know the mind of God, the more you will begin to understand what He wants for your life. As you pray for specific requests, always check them against Scripture. You can be sure God's desires for you will never go against His Word. As you read God's Word and study it, ask the Lord to give you a greater awareness of specific promises that He wants you to pray about and believe for.

EFFECTIVE PRAYERS

We must pray with praise on our lips, a confession of our sin, and with a petition that God will act in the way that accomplishes His purposes and brings Him glory. Then, we must listen very closely to what God may lead us to say or do. God uses individual people to accomplish His purposes. Be willing to be used.

As you pray, never lose sight of this truth: "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up" (Galatians 6:9). Continue to pray, knowing that at God's appointed time, your harvest will come.

The Six Seals





By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.





At some point, all of us have wondered if we are living in the last days. While there is no way we can be sure, the Bible does teach us how to wait for our Lord’s return (Matthew 24:36-46).



We are to be faithful and full of wisdom, committed to following Christ and not drawn away from the goal He has placed before us, which is to love Him above all else. If we do this, then we will be prepared for His second coming.



For those who study the events of our time, it certainly is obvious that we are living in a time of preparation for Christ’s return.



As prophesied, Israel has become an independent, sovereign nation.



The United Nations is on its way to representing all the nations of the world.



The Middle East continues to edge toward Armageddon.



There has been a complete breakdown in morality and ethical values around the world.



Satanic activity is on the rise, along with an increasing tolerance toward it.



Over recent years, there has been a renewed interest in Eastern mysticism. In fact, it is growing at an alarming rate.



We are facing a population explosion, especially in third-world countries. This is a significant fact because of the economic challenges these countries face.



Today one nation may form an alliance with another nation only to see that alliance dissolve within a short period of time. Therefore, we should place our trust only in Christ.



Each of the six seals mentioned in Revelation 6 represents a horrendous tragedy on the earth. Are you prepared for what lies ahead? Our sure hope rests only in Jesus Christ. If you have never placed your faith in Him, now is the time to do just that.





Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved (Acts 16:31).

The Glory of Heaven

By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.

In Revelation 5:5, an elder steps forward to reassure the Lord’s apostle, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”

Have you ever taken time to consider what it will be like for those who are left behind when Christ returns? John did, and the thought of this, along with the reality of God’s awesome presence, was more than John could comprehend. In fact, the knowledge he was given was overwhelming.

Jesus was with John, and immediately the apostle received the comfort he needed. John’s sorrow was understandable. He was being given a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see and to understand heaven’s future glory:

I saw a mighty angel proclaiming in a loud voice, “Who is worthy to break the seals and open the scroll?” But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth could open the scroll or even look inside it. I wept and wept because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or look inside (Revelation 5:2-4).

One day, we will see heaven’s glory and we will bow down and worship Christ. Our unworthiness will be evident, but Christ’s worthiness will be made known to every creature.

Our stubborn, disobedient, and self-centered actions will burn within our hearts, only to be cooled after we, like John, realize that it is only by God’s grace that we have been saved. Our pride will be revealed, and we will wonder why we did not take more time to worship the One with whom we will spend eternity.

You do not have to wait for heaven to begin to worship the risen Lord and Savior. Today He waits for you to come to Him. Just as He revealed Himself to John, He will do the same with you.

To Him who sits on the throne, be praise and honor and glory! (Revelation 5:13).

A Citizen of Heaven

By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.

Heaven is areal place. Even though we can't see it now, one day our eyes will takein the grandeur of God's dwelling place. We will stand before Histhrone, and Christ will judge all that we have or have not done.

Themerciful, loving Christ of today will be the executor of judgment onthe last day. He will not judge unfairly, but He will judge usperfectly. He will not trump up charges against us, but He will judgeus on the basis of what we have done with Him during our lifetime.

Haveyou accepted Him as your Savior? Have you obeyed Him and submitted yourlife to Him? Have you invited Him to reign in your life? Or will yourtestimony prove that you were too busy, too preoccupied, too bitter,too angry, too doubting, or too full of wanting your own way to be withHim?

God wants to make us holy, pure, and righteous.However, we have to allow Him to mold us into His image. Sin is the onething that shakes our security in Christ and our confidence in Hisfinished work on the cross. Our old nature is at strife with our newnature in Christ—the flesh wars against the spirit.

Areyou clinging to something you know God is asking you to surrender toHim? What is distracting you from growing closer to the Lord? Is itfinancial worries? Are you concerned about some relational problem? Areyou worried about the future? These seem small in comparison toeternity in heaven.

God has a purpose for your life and aplace for you with Him in eternity. When you are in heaven, you willnot be a visitor with a day pass—you will be a beloved citizen of Hiskingdom.

Worthyis the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom andstrength and honor and glory and praise! (Revelation 5:12).

A Vision of Heaven

By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.

Do you ever feel frustrated that things are not going the way they should? Do you get uptight because things seem to be out of control?

Take heart, because you are not supposed to be in control. You are not on the throne—God is. His throne is the place of authority and the center of His rule for the activities of heaven. Jesus Christ, who is glorified and magnified, sits at the right hand of the throne.

One day we will be with Christ in heaven, praising Him. Peter writes:

You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light (1 Peter 2:9).

Do you ever wonder what heaven is like? We can try to imagine it based on our earthly ideas. When we think of the grandest place on earth, we might imagine a palace or the sanctuary of the most architecturally elaborate cathedral ever built. We might even think of the private home of the wealthiest person on earth. No matter what we may try to compare heaven to, until we see it for ourselves we will not be able to grasp the scope of its magnificence.

When we see the splendor of heaven, we are going to fall on our faces. We are going to comprehend our complete unworthiness. We are going to regret our stubbornness, disobedience, and self-centeredness.

As you go about your daily routine and you feel tired, frustrated, and out of control, think about heaven. Remember that you are a member of God’s royal priesthood, chosen by Him.

You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth (Revelation 5:10).

Christianity EtcWhere Is The Promise Of His Coming? by Yefet(op): 7:46am On Aug 21, 2010
Where Is The Promise Of His Coming?

Maurice Sklar

Jun 22 2006

2Peter 3:3-4 “Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” There are many that live and speak in this way in the present hour. Even within the church, they demonstrate by their lives and speech that they don’t really believe God’s Word. This is specifically true in the area of the prophetic scriptures concerning the catching away of the Bride, the judgment of the wicked of the earth, and the second coming of our Messiah. He will indeed establish His Kingdom where He will rule and reign from Jerusalem forever. Do you really believe this? These are not fairy tales. These are events of history that will shortly take place. They are ordained by God, whether we want to believe it or not. Another words, it will happen just like the Bible says it will. It isn’t dependant upon our opinions of what we think is going on in this present hour. I was watching the news today. I saw a picture of the present Iranian leader speaking. In front of his “pulpit”, there was a poster of the earth from space. Above it in huge letters, it read: A WORLD WITHOUT ZIONISM Most people don’t understand what that really is saying. It is a demonic challenge against God’s authority, the authority of the scriptures, and the government of God on earth. THAT is the agenda of the Mystery Babylon system and its religious deception. There are three major “religious” forms that this spirit of anti-Messiah takes: 1. Fundamentalist Islam (and all militant religious hatred in its’ different forms) 2. Counterfeit Christianity/ False Religions 3. Humanism All three of these are in total rebellion against God and His Word. The Bride of Messiah must take a strong stand against these systems of thoughts if she is to remain pure. These three deceptions are being released in more and more intensity as we draw near to the catching away of the Bride. They are being poured out into the earth primarily through the mass media including movies, radio, TV, internet, etc. This is mixed into the Wine of Babylon (please read) and is intoxicating many millions of people right now. I hardly need to address the first point. It is abundantly clear who is openly hating the Jews, the nation of Israel and its’ existence, and Holy Spirit led, Bible-embracing Christianity. These militant religious ideologies have captured millions of people throughout the world. Counterfeit Christianity exists also in many forms. It consists of some truth from the Bible mixed in with lies that distort and poison its’ message. You see, the Bible and its’ message is so simple and clear. It is only those that hate God and His salvation that choose to reject the truth and embrace these lies. The attack of counterfeit Christianity is in these areas: They distort, downplay, dilute, or outright deny the reality of: 1. Eternal judgment 2. Hell 3. The necessity of repentance, consecration to God, and holy living. 4. Salvation through faith in the blood of the Messiah Yeshua alone 5. The present-day working of the Holy Spirit and His gifts 6. The literal physical (and spiritual) restoration of Israel and the Jewish people. As it is written: 2Timothy 4:1-4 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah (Jesus Christ), who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto FABLES." What are these fables? They are myths, distortions of truth, additional “revelations” added to the Bible, and any lies that Satan can try to inject into Christianity to deceive the unwary. For example, in the last week I saw the cover of National Geographic advertising “The Gospel of Judas”. A huge movie is being released that promotes the Masonic fable of the templar nights called “The Da Vinci Code.” I went into the Barnes and Noble bookstore near my home recently and I was shocked at the amount of books relating to witchcraft, the occult, eastern mysticism, new age, other religions, “self-realization” Gurus like Wayne Dyer and about 30 others like him, nutritional healing, subliminal hypnosis CDs, “sexual healing”, tantric sex (hedonism), fetishes, other sexual perversions, and hundreds of other books that promise and present some variation of the “itching ears” teachings of our time. I couldn’t help thinking of the passage where King Ahaziah gets sick and goes to “Baal-zebub the god of Ekron” to get better instead of asking God. Elijah goes to him and says, 2Kings 1:3 "Is it not because there is not a God in Israel, that ye go to enquire of Baal-Zebub the god of Ekron? God has no obligation to heal and bless people that refuse to go to Him and turn to demon powers instead. These modern fables are indeed a fulfillment of the scripture: “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;” (1 Timothy 4:1-2) I am not against good books, but much of the Barnes and Noble books that I saw in that long aisle bridge into this other deception: humanism. Humanism is the religion of the modern secular world. Here in America, whether we know it or not, we were brought up in it. We have been soaked and marinated in it from early childhood. When our children enter public school, this is the religious teaching that they are indoctrinated into from pre-school day care and up. It replaces God with the individual. It is the religion of the unholy trinity: Me, Myself, and I. It is the religion of Darwin and evolution. It claims that human beings are just animals that evolved from the primordial ooze. We are cosmic accidents. It says in effect: YOU and I are God now. Whatever I want, whatever makes ME feel good, whatever I want to think and believe is right makes it right, there is no God, and there is no ultimate right and wrong – “just you and me, baby.” “I’m OK, You’re OK.” God and His holy law have been brought to the level of flavors of ice cream: you like vanilla, I like chocolate, and she likes butter pecan. “We all live in a yellow submarine.” Do we REALLY? Listen to John Lennon’s song “Imagine there is no heaven…imagine there is no hell…” At one time the Beatles boasted that they were more famous than Jesus! They are gone, and Yeshua remains crowned King and sitting upon the throne of heaven. I have got news for all: that throne is coming to this earth! Yeshua is coming back on a white horse to take the earth back for God and remove all evil people from it. THAT isn’t a fairy tale, although to many it sounds like one. It is about to HAPPEN!! One time the Lord said to me, “John Lennon isn’t imagining NOW. He is fully experiencing the realities of his existence and the consequences of the choice he made. Now he KNOWS there is both a heaven AND a hell. And he cannot escape from it, either. It is forever.” Modern fables, fairy tales, and fantasies do not change reality, even if they are sung in songs. But the world is really shaking its’ fist in mockery and defiance of the Almighty God and screaming: “Where are you? Where is the promise of your coming? You won’t judge me or stop me from doing what I want to do. I don’t need you and I don’t fear you either. I dare you to show up. Who are you to judge MEhuh!!” But, whether they like it or not, the ungodly of this earth are about to find out who God REALLY is, as it is written: “And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?” (Revelation 6:15-17) Get ready, you scoffers, and watch this earth be judged by a living and a holy God. He hasn’t died; He hasn’t left the universe temporarily on vacation, or fallen asleep, He hasn’t changed. He is not going to disappear and go away just because of your fantasies. And contrary to so many movies – “mother nature” or aliens from another planet are not responsible for the coming destruction and devastation soon to hit the earth. They won’t come and rescue you, either. God alone has taken responsibility to judge the earth. None can escape that reject God and His holy Word. Mankind’s true choice is simple: Repent and turn to God or perish. As it written: “Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel. Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest he be angry and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.” (Psalm 2) “But who may abide the day of his coming? And who shall stand when he appeareth? For he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap…And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and fear not me, saith the LORD of hosts…For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch…” (Malachi 3:2,5; 4:1) Hebrews 12:29 “For our God is a consuming fire.” 2 Peter 3:7-15 “But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the Day of Judgment and perdition of ungodly men. The LORD is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to usward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation. Purify your hearts, for the Lord is coming soon for His Bride. Keep yourself free from the deception of this final hour. Luke 21:36 “Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.” Beloved, I pray that you may be ready when He appears.

My love to you in Our Messiah,

Repentance for Sinners and Saints

By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.

The church of Thyatira had love, faith, and patient endurance in tribulation, but they were allowing moral compromise in their midst. They tolerated a woman named Jezebel, a self-proclaimed prophetess, who was teaching immorality. While some remained true to God, others fell into deceit.

Often we think that repentance is just for sinners. However, it is for saints too. If we succumb to temptation, we must repent. If we remain faithful, God is faithful to us. If we turn our back on Satan, we gain a mighty victory.

Meanwhile, the church of Sardis had another problem. They had a reputation of being alive, but they were spiritually dead. For us to be made alive in Christ there are certain things we must do.

First, we must wake up and take an inventory of our spiritual condition. Are we living lives that are pleasing to God?

Second, we must become committed to studying God’s Word. Do we know what we believe? We believe in the virgin birth, the bodily resurrection of Christ, authority of the Scripture, the holiness and righteousness of life, and the second coming of Christ.

Third, we must remember the truth. Remember the essence of the faith, not the fads of culture. Remember the commitment you once made to Christ.

Fourth, we must guard and protect this sacred trust.

Fifth, we must turn to the Lord, seeking His forgiveness with a repentant heart.

Whether we are in danger of falling into deceit as the church of Thyatira, or being spiritually dead as the Sardis church, God desires our willingness to turn toward Him. If we don’t respond during the time that the Lord has given, He will deal with us. In His mercy and love, God disciplines us so that we may become more like Him.

To him who overcomes and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations (Revelation 2:26).

This teaching is Part 2 of my teaching Lady Wisdom

(the Harlot)

As I continued reading in Proverbs, another vision unfolded before me.I saw a large shopping center. It reminded me of the Galleria ShoppingCenter in Houston, Texas that I enjoyed going to when I was a teenager,but it was much more posh. It had four or five levels with stores oneach side. These "stores" had everything in them that was pleasant,desirable, delicious, luxurious, and beautiful to the senses. In frontof each of these, there stood the most beautiful women that I had everseen. They were physically perfect. Each one looked like a model. Notone was like the other. As I looked further, I noticed that some of theshops had men in front of them instead of women. They were also socaptivating that I somehow knew that they would be impossible for womento resist. Some were obviously homosexual and there were more "stores"with every kind of perversion on the lower levels. But, it all seemedso natural and even acceptable. Everything was so clean that the chromesparkled on top of the glass walkways, and the floors were perfectlypolished granite and marble. There was a sickly-sweet music coming fromthe small speakers in the ceiling. I looked up and saw a sign in goldleaf letters above the whole "shopping mall". It read: "Come to me, andsatisfy your every desire! Live for the moment! Pleasure, Power, Fame,Wealth and Luxury are mine! Bow in worship before me, and all will beyours! Eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow you shall DIE!" Then, asI looked down the long atrium of the shopping center, it seemed like itopened for "business". I saw many of God's children enter the grandentrance. Hundreds and hundreds of them entered the mall. Most were litwith heaven's light. Many were shining brightly and lit with the fireof heaven. Some had come directly from their churches where theyworshiped the Lord. Then as I watched, they went into the variousstores and then exited shortly after. The more shops that they wentinto, the less were they lit with God's light and glory. Finally, atthe end of the day, God's children finally left the mall. As they did,I noticed that none carried the light of heaven. Instead, the strangefires of idolatry lit their lamps instead. They were lit in differentcolors – some were blue, orange, green, red, and yellow. Some, werecompletely in darkness and left the mall in chains. I knew that theyhad died in there. Then I saw those souls that were black leave themall in chains and fall into the fires of hell. They were all chainedtogether like a prison work gang screaming in agony and despair: "Whydidn't we listen to Lady Wisdom warning us to stay away from theHarlot? It's too late now!! We can't get out! We can't get back! NOHOPE NOW! NO HOPE! NO HOPE FOREVER! WE ARE DOOMED!!!!!!!!!!" Then, Isuddenly was in front of one of the stores. There was a bright neonsign above it that said: "No Strings attached! Come and Lie with me inEcstasy!" As I entered under the flashing neon sign, the small foyerseemed to disappear. Instead, I saw a large room appointed with everykind of luxury. It looked like the presidential suite at the WaldorfAstoria or the Four Seasons Hotel. There were plush high back chairs infront of a roaring fireplace on the right. There were large pillowspositioned around it on the floor. On the left was a large bathroom. Itwas bigger than any bathroom I had ever seen. It had a huge marble tubwith large columns on the four sides of it. All of it was trimmed ingold filigree. It was breathtaking. I stood in amazement as I look atit for a long while. Never had I seen such luxury. As I returned andwalked into the bedroom part of the suite, I looked and saw a massivebed. All around it were candles lit. The bed was elevated on a roundplatform. It had four huge ivory columns on each corner on top of ahuge mahogany head and footboard that was filled with carvings. It hadthe most beautiful silk and embroidered bedspread, monogrammed pillowsand sheets. There were the most beautiful curtains on the walls anderotic statues were in the room of nude women. They seemed so life-likethat it looked like they could come alive at any moment. The whole roomwas filled with so much lust that it was intoxicating. I was soovercome that I just fell into one of the large chairs next to a sofa.I had never felt so comfortable, yet at the same time, I was sick to mystomach. I knew that something was terribly wrong. Though I was amazedat the surroundings, my spirit was grieved and I felt like this was ina prison somehow. Then, I looked up towards the entrance and the doubledoors with golden doorknob fixtures opened, and a beautiful womanentered the room. I just stared at her transfixed. I had never seensuch perfection. She was wearing a floor-length green gown made out ofsome kind of shimmering silk. Then she came and sat down next to me inthe other high backed chair next to the fireplace. Her eyes never leftme, except when she would slowly close them and open them and purse herlips. My inner man recoiled in loathing. On the coffee table in frontof the fire, there was a golden pitcher with two crystal goblets oneach side. She said: "I've been waiting for you. I want you the most ofanyone I have ever had in here! Do you like what I have prepared?Stolen waters are sweet, you know. My bread eaten in secret ispleasant. I know how to please you like no other woman ever has, Justrelax now, Drink of my wine, my darling! You'll feel so much better." Asshe poured it for me, I just knew that, if I drank it, I couldn'tresist her. Still, my hands seemed to go for the magnificent goblet inher hands. It took all I had to stop from taking it from her hands. Icried out, "Jesus! HELP ME!" Immediately, she put the cup down, andsaid: "Well, the night is young. We can always enjoy this later, youand I." I had my head down. I was afraid to look at her, because I wasabout to be overcome. I fell on my knees and began to cry out to theLord for strength. It was too much for my flesh. I knew that if Ilooked into her eyes one more time, I would succumb to her seductions.If I hadn't just been with Lady Wisdom and ate and drank at her table,I am certain that I would not have been able to resist even for amoment. When I cried out to the Lord on my knees. The woman shudderedand quickly got up off the chair and backed away from me towards thebathroom. Suddenly, I was in a black silk bathrobe standing at theentrance of the palatial bathroom. The woman was in the huge tub. Itwas so large that it looked like a small pool. There were bubbles allaround her and rose petals floating on the service of the water. Shesaid: "Don't you want to come in? The water is just right. Don't youdeserve to have some pleasure after all that you have been through? Noone will ever find out, After all, God says He will always forgive you.How could this be so wrong, when if feels SO GOOD!!" I began to walkedtowards the tub like a man in a trance. I got about ten feet away andstopped. She had now sat up in the tub and reached out her hands towardme. I gazed on her body like I was in a trance. I shuddered as I feltsome kind of snakes wrap themselves around my feet and start to dragme. Once again, I started crying out at the top of my lungs, "JESUS,JESUS, JESUS HELP! HELP! HELP ME! Then, I stopped in front of her abouteight feet away from the tub. This "perfect" woman seemed to melt infront of me. What I then saw was the most hideous sight! I saw a demonmanifest in front of me in that tub. The tub suddenly became a pit offire and I saw hundreds of snakes and worms crawling in and out of thetub. Many had coiled around me and were biting me as they dragged metowards that pit of fire filled with brimstone. The demon had hugeclaws and razor sharp teeth and fangs. Those beautiful blue eyes of thewoman were now red and full of hate, blood thirst and murder. It wasworse than any horror movie could possibly be! I screamed out in painfrom the snake bites and worms as they were beginning to eat me alive."HELP ME JESSSUUSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Suddenly I wasn't thereanymore. I was back in that bedroom suite again. At first, I was sorelieved to be out of that agony from the snakes, that I just lied backin the bed. Then I realized that I was in that bed I saw. I now wasclothed in cream-colored silk pajamas. It was the most comfortable bedI had ever laid in. Everything was perfect. I heard music from aSchubert string quartet in the background. It was wonderful. I sleptfor I don't know how long and awakened some time later. By this time, Iknew that I was in a vision, but it was so real that it seemed like Iwas actually living this. Then the woman came towards me at the foot ofthe bed. But, I remembered the tub and what had happened, and I knewthat this somehow was not real but a temptation. But, I couldn't takemy eyes off of her. As she came toward me, I closed my eyes andscreamed out at the top of my lungs, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!JESUS – HELP! HELP! HELP!!!! I kept screaming the name of Jesus.Finally, that woman backed away from me. Although, she got as close asshe could, I knew that she was not allowed to touch me unless I yieldedand said "yes" to her. It wasn't me resisting. I had given in longbefore, I thought. It was simply too much. BUT, The Lord rose up in meand rebuked this woman. I heard myself saying: "It is written, Thoushalt NOT commit adultery. Thou shalt NOT have any gods before Me.Drink water from your own cistern and running waters from your ownwell. Abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul. The Lordrebukes you, Satan. In the name of Jesus, depart from me, you angel oflight and seduce me no more!" I am certain that I would haveimmediately given in to these temptations had not the Lord prepared meby first going to Lady Wisdom's house and eaten at her table. Her foodand drink were still in me and I found the strength to resist. But Ilearned from this how GOOD Satan can make sin look. It is only throughthe power of the Holy Spirit and God's Word that we can overcome thewiles and seductions of the Harlot. As soon as the Lord rose up in meand I spoke those words, once again, everything changed. The lovelyvision of the bed and the perfect woman disappeared and that hideousdemonic creature once again manifested in front of me. Instead of thebed of luxury in that palatial suite, I seemed to be on a platform,flat on my back and chained to a black stone-like slab. All around mewere the eyes of demons. I heard shrieking and screaming of thetormented souls of the damned. I knew that I was in hell. That demoncreature who once seemed to be the most beautiful woman I had ever seenwas trying to get to me and devour me. It smelled so horrible in thatcavern. I couldn't breathe. There was an invisible bubble around me, itseemed, and the demons could not penetrate it. Nevertheless, I wasstill chained to this slab that had once been a bed. Then, I heard aVoice, and it was so loud that it echoed throughout that cavern ofhell: "Let him go. He is Mine. I am His Father and he is My son." Then,suddenly, I was back in my room once again with my Bible open to thebook of Proverbs. I was traumatized and shook with fear and cried forseveral days after this. A few days later, I finally finished myseeking time of reading through the book of Proverbs fifty times. I wasnever the same after that. I learned that the Greater One – greaterthan sin – lives within me. I am thankful that God's grace not onlysaved me, but that it KEEPS me every day and night, moment by moment.Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. We do NOThave to sin. We can stay on the pathway of life and wisdom. Thanks beto God our Abba Father of the Messiah Yeshua Who conquered sin anddeath. He forever destroyed the power of that Harlot on the cross andin hell for us all!! Let us abide daliy and feed at Wisdom's bountifultable so we may have the strength to overcome the Harlot's seductionsin this midnight hour. Beware of her witchcraft and seductions. May theLord preserve you and keep in purity and holiness so you may be readywhen the Bridegroom appears! STAY AWAY from the Harlot's house! It isthe way to Hell. Yeshua our Messiah is coming very soon!

Love in Him,

May 6, 2008

Some years ago, I was living in Tulsa, Oklahoma and I was attending TheFamily Prayer Center. Dave Roberson is the pastor and also my dearfriend. I have sat under his teaching ministry for over twenty yearsand he ordained me in January of 2000. I learned so much from him,especially in the areas of enduring prayer, Holy Spirit-ledintercession, praying without ceasing, and the meditation of God's Wordto extract revelation knowledge, how to hear the voice of the Lord,fasting, and most of all – how to listen to our Teacher and to turnourselves over to Him completely – the precious Holy Spirit - Who hasbeen given to us to lead us into all truth. Dave's teaching ministryhas the ability to transform and to develop our inner man – our bornagain "new creation" spirit. I am so thankful for him to have gonebefore me and blazed the trail so that I could fulfill God's calling onmy life. I urge those of you who are hungry for that kind of teachingto go to "prayermediacenter.com" and listen to his messages. They arefree. His book, "The Walk of the Spirit, the Walk of Power" is alsoavailable online for free at "daveroberson.org". These messages and hisbook are life changing! I realize now in hindsight that much of myministry today is the fruit of all those years of DOING what heteaches. Anyway, I was listening to him one time at church, and Davewas teaching on how to meditate God's Word and to "assimilate" it, ashe calls it. He was urging us to read the book of Proverbs all the waythrough over and over – at least 50 times – and to pray in the Spiritin tongues while doing it. In this way, he said, wisdom would be givento us. I was inspired and full of faith, so I decided to do this. Itwas hard at first, but I read and read and read for several months.After about the thirtieth time through or so, something started tohappen. The only way I can describe it is that I seemed to enter "into"this book. Instead of reading words, I began to "see" images that theproverbs were describing. Each proverb was like a little movie thatwould teach a lesson. But, with each proverb, I felt an inner prickingas each of them, like seeds that cut into my heart, began to be planteddeeply there. Each proverb had a "cross" in it. If I said "yes" to eachproverb and yielded. I could feel a little more "flesh" dying. Anotherwords, it hurt! I felt like I was in a movie theatre in my spirit whereI was watching one short movie after another. Each proverb became alivesomehow and I saw it happen in front of me. Even more amazing, thewhole book began to form inside of me like a big tree growing in alldirections, just exactly like Dave described had happened to him. I sawthe whole outline of the book as it assimilated inside of me. It becamemore and more clear and detailed as I reached the forty-third timethrough. Then, I started on my forty-fourth time through the book ofProverbs. By now, I saw the book was divided into three sections – thefirst nine chapters or so talk about two women – then there are theproverbs of Solomon during his life – and then it ends with proverbsthat were recorded after his death. Then it ends with the good womanagain that we had met in the first section. Suddenly, I felttransported inside the book! I don't know if it was a vision or just "aprophetic experience" or what, but I was no longer reading words. I was"there"! It was awesome. I was in front of massive building made out ofwhite marble. It had seven huge columns across the front that were sotall that I could not see the tops of them. It looked a little like theWhite House and the Lincoln Memorial at the same time. As I lookedinside, I saw a huge throne with a Queen sitting on it. At first shedidn't look alive, but looked like Abraham Lincoln's statue of stone.She was so beautiful but looked like a statue. I kept walking into thebuilding past the columns. I kept walking and walking closer andcloser. As I did, the throne with the stone Queen on it kept gettinglarger and larger. Finally, I was standing in front of her throne. As Igot closer, the Queen began to become alive. There was a bright lightthat grew brighter and brighter all around the throne. I heard angelssinging on each side and over her. It was so majestic that I began totremble as I got within about 50 feet. The glory kept intensifyinguntil finally I could come no closer. I fell on my knees in front ofher. I couldn't help it. It just happened. Now, She was fully alive andglowing like no one I had ever seen. Such Beauty and Majesty together!I had never seen anything and anyone more beautiful than her! I felt sosmall and so privileged to just be there in Her presence. She justgazed down at me for some time in silence. I couldn't even look Her inthe face for very long without having to look away. Then She spoke,"Welcome, my son. God has heard the cries of your heart for Me. Youhave been invited into My Presence in answer to your hunger and thirst.Blessed are those that hunger and thirst after Me – for they shall beFILLED." Her voice was like the most lovely music and so powerful atthe same time. The last word just reverberated through the massivepalace throne room and echoed back and forth as it bounced off of themarble in all directions. Then, She spoke again and said, "It is onlythrough humility and the fear of the LORD that you can find me." I justworshiped and stayed on my knees and trembled. Then She stood up.Somehow, when she stood, I was able to stand also. She had light comingout of her head and her crown in beams going in every direction likesearchlights. I thought to myself, "I've seen this before somewhere."Like She heard my thoughts, she said, "Yes you have. I appeared in thisform to those who laid the foundation for your country. They depictedme in the Statue of Liberty. My likeness was put on the gold pieceAmerican dollar coin. I have appeared and been with those who wouldchoose Me. But, I have hid Myself from almost all in your proud, vain,perverted, and foolish generation. They do not desire Me. Every manmust choose for himself. So few will pay the price to come here, thoughI love all of God's children. My house is always open for all whodesire Me. The founding fathers of the United States called me "LadyLiberty", but actually I am the Spirit of Godly Wisdom. You can call me"Lady Wisdom", if you like. It was in this way that I appeared to KingSolomon. I am the Personification of the Holy Spirit in the Person ofGodly Wisdom." Then I realized that the Voice I was hearing was sofamiliar – it was the Voice of Yeshua our Messiah! This was the Lord!Lady Wisdom then said, "I had to appear to Solomon in this form becauseI had not yet been given a Body. Now I can reveal to you the fullnessof Wisdom, as you are able to receive it, for you are My covenant childthrough the New Covenant in My blood." Then I saw Yeshua standingbefore Me instead and He said, "Who will come to Me and live? How longwill My people prostitute themselves when I have so much to give them?How I long to give them the riches of My wisdom and glory!" I saw thatHe was crying as He said it. "Come with Me and I will show you a littleof the unsearchable riches of Wisdom. Then, the LORD in the form ofLady Wisdom was once again standing and began to walk towards the backof the throne. I saw a large door that opened by itself in front ofHer. She was striding boldly and I had to walk very fast to keep up."This is one of My treasure rooms. I will give you what your heartcries out for." She stopped and I saw jewels of all kinds, shapes, andsizes. It looked like it was a pirate's lair but 1000 times greater.There were golden vessels, beautiful vases, cups, chalices, gemstones,crowns of all sizes and design. Each piece was so awesome, I couldn'ttake my eyes off of them. She said, "take this and look at it." Ilooked at what she was pointing to and I picked up a large jewel. Itwas dark red like a massive ruby. It was so pretty! I looked into itand suddenly I was looking at the cross of Yeshua. He was dying inagony for me. Then I saw, just for a short moment, as He was sufferingin Hell - damnation in my place! I could hardly look and after a whileI had to look away. It was as if I was feeling a little of His agony asHe was separated from the Father. Finally, it broke me and I wept untilI couldn't weep anymore. I looked up at Lady Wisdom and she said, "Thatis a stone of the Father's love for you." This will be in your heartfrom now on. When you play the violin and minister, all will hear andknow how much the Father loves them. This stone contains the scriptureyou call John 3:16. Each of these jewels here have a promise in them.This is your inheritance in My grace. As you are ready and come to Methrough all of eternity, I will reveal all of these riches to you, Myson. Then she gave me a green stone that looked like an emerald. Ilooked into it, and suddenly, I was in the most beautiful garden. I sawAdam and Eve as they walked with God in the cool of the day. It was soawesome! It was greater than any garden I had ever seen or known abouton earth. I was filled with joy, hope and love. I ate what seemed likea peach, but it was white. It was more sweet than any peach I had evertasted. As I ate it, all of the hurts and betrayals seemed to be takenout of my heart from all the terrible things that people had done to mein the past. I felt like poison was removed and hope came back intothose places where I had been hurt on the inside. "Son, from now onwhen you play and minister, many will receive healing in their heartsand souls from the wounds of their past. I will bring Hope to thehopeless." Then, I was suddenly "out" of the green stone and back inthe treasure room with Lady Wisdom. Then she said, "Come with Me." Andwe walked for some time through Her palace corridors. We turned to theleft and I saw a huge dining room. There were two seats on each side ofa long table. It was lavishly set with every kind of delicious food anddrink. It was so much that it was impossible to know where to start.Then Lady Wisdom said to me, "Come and dine with Me." As we ate, Ithought to myself, this is the most delicious food I had ever put intomy mouth. Then, She said, "Are you thirsty? Taste My wine!" And shepoured some into a large crystal chalice from the bottle on the table."This is one of My greatest wines. It will release the sounds of boththe joy and the tears of heaven into the earth through Your violin andvoice. I have mixed together the perfect wine for you to serve in yourministry for Me. Many will be filled with joy and yet they will weepwith My tears over their sins and failures when they hear you. You willserve this wine as long as you live on this earth until I return. It ismixed with both love and judgment. It will bring repentance, purity andadorning to My bride as she drinks it. I just looked down at it. I knewsomehow that if I drank this, it would cost me. I hesitated. Then LadyWisdom said, "Yes, this is My cup for you to drink. I drank the cup MyFather gave Me and it cost me everything. Do you love Me enough todrink this? It will be a cross of intercession. You will feel deeplythe pain and suffering of those you are sent to. It is the fellowshipof My sufferings as My Bride endures to the end in the present world.Remember, if you suffer with Me, you shall reign with Me. When youbegin to love deeply, you will suffer much. But I will turn yourmourning into joy when you see what I will do through you. Do you wantthis, or SHALL I GIVE IT TO ANOTHER?" I said, "I am willing." Before Icould think anymore, I drank it down. The more I drank, the more of themixture of both joy and sorrow went into my spirit. It was sodelicious, and yet so sour at the same time. Finally, Lady Wisdom tooka loaf of bread, broke and piece off, and dipped it into Her chalice ofwine. She said, "Eat this. This contains My grace to carry yourministry and to be faithful to the end. My grace is sufficient for yourfuture. It will not be easy. It will be My cross for you that willbring salvation and joy to millions. You will not see until the endwhat I have done for you and through you for so many. You must be likeme and humble yourself all the days of your life and be the servant –even to the most undeserving. Serve and love ALL as I did. Let yourselfbe used and even abused at times. I will redeem all for my glory. Thenyou shall see that your labor is not in vain in Me." She gave the breadafter she dipped it into the red wine and gave it to me. I began to cryagain and say that I was not worthy. She just looked at me with suchlove and compassion that I melted even more. Finally, I ate it. I feltan inner strength come into me and at the same time I began to see apath of inner suffering that I had to go down. I can say now afterseven years, that I have indeed experienced some of what I saw at thattime. It is only God's grace that has kept me through it all. It wasnot by my efforts, works, or my own righteousness, for I have proven tobe a failure in those realms. I do not deserve any of it. Nevertheless,God's grace has kept me, provided for me, and sustained me from thatday until this. I felt like I ate and drank a small, tiny part of theMessiah's passion. Lady Wisdom said, "Now, I have made you rich withgreat riches from My Kingdom. From this wealth, go and feed My lambs.Go and prepare My Bride for My return. I am coming soon. You have foundthe highest purpose for music and worship in this age. I will give youthe souls of many thousands as your reward. Forever, your sorrows inthis life will produce the greatest rejoicing in that Day when I willreward your openly. All shall see what they cannot now." Suddenly, Iwas standing outside of Lady Wisdom's house as she sat on her throneonce again. She said, "You can come here as often as you like, butevery day you must CHOOSE to come to My house. Now, you must visitanother house and another woman – the one that you lust after in yourflesh. Only by overcoming her seductions will you fulfill My highestcall for your life." Then, I seemed to come out of the book of Proverbsand into my body again. It was an awesome experience, to say the least!Then I heard Her voice again in My spirit, and she said, "This visionwill be hidden in your spirit until the time comes when it is to berevealed. But beware of the LovePeddler of Babylon. You will meet her andthen must stand against her harlotries and seductions. She will try toseduce you. If she can't seduce you, she will try to destroy everythingin your life to get you to give up. But remember, the wine and breadthat you ate and drank is greater. I will keep you faithful to the end!I love you, My son, My son." Amen. To be continued, Maurice Sklar
Christianity EtcGod's M O B I L I Z A T I O N C A L L ! by Yefet(op): 9:36am On Aug 18, 2010
By Pastor Joh Matutis- Berlin Germany



The Lord gave me a very important vision. I must inform you of them. Perhaps it is important for you and helpful? Pastor Joh.W.Matutis, (Berlin / Germany) www.nnk-berlin.de (english menu) While praying this morning, God gave me a vision. He showed me a great, world-wide “mobilization” I saw myself strolling along a beach. Suddenly, there sounded a loud boom, which became stronger and more massive. It was not the noise of the sea or of the wind. It was completely still outside. The sea water was as smooth as glass. The deep booming sound which was like the sound of the mountains about to cave in, a banging sound which I had up till now never heard in my whole life, came from the other side of the ocean, from far away. It became so strong and mighty, that the earth began to quake and shake. It sounded like the blasting of a deep bass trumpet. I had never heard this sort and depth of bass sound before now. The whole air vibrated.I holed myself up in the dunes of the embankment, face down, and waited to see what would come out of this natural spectacle. When the booming refused to stop, and instead became stronger, I saw myself begin to pray in the vision, and to speak with my God. Then I heard a voice saying, “my child, fear not. That is my mobilization call, a signal, from the other world. I am calling my people out from all peoples. I myself am shaking the earth and the sea. The sinners and godless will pass away for fear and the fearful expectation of the things which are to come. Understand, my child, that all these have been initiated by the financial crises. That was just the beginning of ruin. The foundation of today’s society will be so shaken that the people will lose all that they have acquired, and saved up till now. Every infrastructure and welfare will collapse with time. Life will be very difficult for very many people. The general security will get out of control and there will be a proliferation of crime such that life on earth will be massively threatened. But you, who fear my name will I save from ruin. I am holding my arm of protection over you. Although not even a silent wind blew, and not even a small wave was seen on the sea, the booming was so mighty, that my heart threatened tostop beating. Then I thought to myself, “I will now also die”. And then the Lord said to me, “my child, do not fear. You are to live and continue to declare my works. Arise, go home and tell your loved ones. Let them know that the coming of my son is very close at hand, at the doorstep. I am setting everything in motion in order to take my people home, and I am now stripping them of everything that is holding them back, or blocking them. As I stood up to obey God’s voice, starting to make my way homewards, I saw very many people, lying in the dunes. They had come out from their houses, racing towards the sea to see and experience this extraordinary natural spectacle. They lay on their faces as if paralysed, exactly as I had lain a few minutes before now. As I passed by them on my way home, despite the continuous distant booming sound, these people called to me saying “you are crazy; you cannot make it home in this situation. It is too dangerous”. They then buried their heads even further in the dunes, because they feared what would happen next. They no longer wanted to hear or know of anything. And then said the Lord to me: “for you, my children, who fear my name, this is the day of my “mobilization”. For you my “sun of salvation” arises, with which I gather my true children, and bring them together. Go, my son, and tell this everyone you can reach”. Then I asked the Lord “what shall I tell them?” “Tell my children, He said”, “they are no longer to occupy themselves with perishable things, but rather, much more with the immortal, the eternal things. They are to seek me and study my word. They should forgive one another, so long as there is still time, and make peace with one another. They should stop being envious of , and pointing fingers at one another. They should neither accuse nor suspect one another. Everyone should do what he is supposed to, and can do. Tell them to free themselves of every unnecessary thing, and to stop fighting spasmodically (intermittently) for their rights. From now on, I will ensure your rights, and provide for justice for you. Great changes are about to occur all over the world, in every area of life. Adjust yourselves therefore and be prepared. Nothing is going to be as it has been before now, ” The further I moved from the beach, the less of the booming sound I heard, even though I was of the opinion that the sound had become stronger and even more massive. I felt as if I had been secured in a class case. Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying “I will bring my children into safety in my own way. You will see everything I will do in the world, which will experience all the “plagues of Egypt” before I withdraw my children unto myself, before Pharaoh releases you forever. My people hold together! Stay with one another, encourage one another. Soon, you will have made it!” That was the last thing I took with me from this vision. As I thought about all that I had seen, and what I should do with it, the Lord spoke to me saying “spread this revelation I have given you this morning about my “mobilization” overall further to my children, and encourage them to do likewise, for I am at the door (I am coming soon). And tell them, especially my people, that they should be serious about their relationship with me (God), before it is too late, ” When I got this message, I felt as now the biblical "woe's " begin. See Revelation 8.13 / 9,12 / 11,14. Do help me spread this message overall. Send it to your friends and acquaintances. Spread it your churches and house fellowships. Translate it into other languages. The spiritual „D-Day“ of our Lord is coming very soon, and we need to be ready. Maranatha! Our Lord comes.

Christianity EtcEndtimes Studies (signs, Rapture, Antichrist, Etc.) by Yefet(op): 7:13pm On Aug 17, 2010
ENDTIMES (SIGNS, RAPTURE, ANTICHRIST, ETC.)

RAPTURE (CAUGHT UP)

The carrying of a person to another place or sphere of existence.

1Thess 4:16-17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will becaught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.And so we will be with the Lord forever.

Dan 12:2, 13(Daniel will be died/resting and at the end he will also arise)

1John 2:22 Who is the liar? It is the man who denies that Jesus is theChrist. Such a man is the antichrist—he denies the Father and the Son.

2 John 1:7 Manydeceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh,have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and theantichrist.

The spirit of the antichrist is always in the world and has shown itself in many ways and in many people down the ages.

Empoweredby satan, this last great antichrist will recognize no authority,Christian or otherwise, apart from his own, will put himself in theplace of God as the sole controller of mankind.

1 John 2:18 The last hour (not in the timing of man of in the timing of God)

SOMEPEOPLE HAVE BEEN SEEING 11:11 OR 01:11 (ALL THESE 1'S) IT IS BECAUSELORD TOLD ME THE REASON WHY I KEEP SEEING THE 1'S IT IS BECAUSE OF THEANTICHRIST WHO HAS BEEN REVEALED IN THE LAST HOUR AND THE LAST HOUR IS11PM.

http://www.choothomas.com/urgentmessage.html

Praisethe Lord, He has been so good to me. I thank the Lord so much forgiving me these Revelations because I never knew anything about the endtimes not even a word about the Rapture (Caught up) but it wasprophesied to me 26 December 2007 that in the coming year starting 2008that God was going to give me a lot of serious revelations of His Word,serious discoveries and etc. Now I can't stop sharing some of thethings God has given me.

My name is Sandra Sadiq. InAugust 2006 whiles I was stationed in Korea early one morning the Lordwoke me up to pray like I usually do but I was so tired and I told HimI will spend time with Him before I going to work like I always do butI just needed a little more sleep. In about 45 minutes to an hourlater, I heard this loud sound and the first thing that came to my mindwas oh boy that is the sounding for all the soldiers on post to getready for war (in the Army that is how we practice for war and we callit an alert). So I got up rushing in my barracks room getting ready forwork and at the same time I was repenting to the Lord that I have toget ready for work because of this emergency so I will have to spendmore time with Him later. When I finally left the room I realized therewas no one on the streets or even in my office and at that time I wasworking for one of the general officer's in the army. This was about 4or 5 am in the morning. Finally I decided to go back to my room then Isaw a guy on the street on post and I asked him why there is no oneoutside because there is an alert and later on that day I kept askingpeople and no one had heard that sound the sound but me. But I neverbothered to ask the Lord so a couple of days later which was on aSunday I was in the bus going to church and there was a young lady whoI had invited to church talking to me in the bus but then I heard theLord so clear and what He said to me was the sound I heard that day wasfrom Him in Heaven that was the trumpets; wow. GOD IS SO GREAT. I LOVEHIM FOREVER.

On 18 September 2009, I went to thesalon to get my hair done and I started talking about end times with acouple of the ladies there. I told them about the first seal beingopened and one lady asked me who is the A/C (AntiChrist) and I said Ican't tell her but I will send her the scriptures so she can study themherself and allow the Lord to talk to her. Then she mentioned a nameand told me she thought it was that person too but she went and askedher Pastor and her Pastor said it will be a beast from East. I knew notto engage in any arguments with her so I said I know what the Lord toldme and I rather listen to God rather than any other human being. So thenext day on 19 Sept. when I got up and the first thing the Lord said tome was, even He is God Almighty had to come in the form of man and wasalso was called the Lamb but yet did He did not come walking on allfours (looking like an actual lamb) on earth what makes people thinkthe devil will actually send a real beast to conquer the world. Yes thebible uses the word beast or the A/C but that doesn't mean theAntichrist will actually look just like a beast as in an animal form,oh boy. The A/C has to come in the form of man and pretend and deceivemany, in order for one to deceive they will have to look and talk likethe people or the thing they are trying to take over.

ILOVE THE LORD. I never thought God will pick me to give me all theseend times Revelations because I really didn't even know anything abouttrumpets, Rapture, end times, etc. It is easier to teach, preach ortalk about these end times Revelations instead of writing them. Mybrothers and sisters in the Lord, please be Ready and Waiting for theLord because there really is nothing left for Him to do other than thesounding of the trumpets.

LORD, I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL AND I LOVE YOU. REALLY THERE IS NO GOD LIVE JEHOVAH.

MARANATHA

Please if you have any questions I can be reached at:

COPY AND DISTRIBUTE AND FEEL FREE TO TEACH THESE THINGS IN YOUR BIBLE STUDIES OR AT YOUR CHURCH.

PLEASEWARN PEOPLE NOT TO RECEIVE THE MARK OF THE BEAST EVEN IF THEY ARE LEFTBEHIND BECAUSE SO LONG AS THEY DON'T RECEIVE THAT MARK AND GIVE THEIRLIVES TO THE LORD THEY WILL STILL GET A CHANCE TO SPEND ETERNAL LIFEWITH OUR LORD.

Christianity EtcBe Prepared For His Return by Yefet(op): 4:55pm On Aug 17, 2010

Be Prepared for His Return

By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.

In the opening few paragraphs of the book of Revelation, the Lord tells us that He is the “Alpha and Omega…who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty” (Revelation 1:cool. One day He will return for those who know Him as their Savior and Lord.

Some believe that our Lord’s return will take place within our lifetime. What a glorious experience this would be! However, no one knows the day or the hour of His return. What we do know by reading the book of Revelation and by watching the signs of our time is that many of the prophecies written in God’s Word already have been fulfilled. This should be a blessed encouragement to us.

Now it is our responsibility to prepare for His return by being:

Watchful—This means that we willingly maintain an intimate relationship with the Lord through daily prayer and devotion.

Committed—Sin becomes less and less of a temptation, and we refuse to be drawn away from our intimate fellowship with the Lord. Instead of finding ways to benefit ourselves through our jobs and relationships, we look for ways to love others with the love of Christ.

Determined—We keep pressing on toward the goal God has given us, which is to preach and to teach His Word without compromise and without failure.

Faithful—We do not become tired of doing good. Our feelings of weariness translate into personal sacrifice and devotion to God who gave Himself for us.

Holy—We desire to fulfill His command to become holy as He is holy, forsaking all other things that would draw us away from Him.

Are you living as if Christ could return tomorrow? He may. Will you be ready?

Behold I am alive forever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades (Revelation 1:18).

Christianity EtcA Slap In The Face by Yefet(op): 2:52pm On Aug 17, 2010
17/8/2010

A SLAP IN THE FACE

Read Matthew 5:38-41

38 "You have heard the law that says the punishment must match theinjury: 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.' 39 But I say, donot resist an evil person! If someone slaps you on the right cheek,offer the other cheek also. 40 If you are sued in court and your shirtis taken from you, give your coat, too. 41 If a soldier demands thatyou carry his gear for a mile, carry it two miles.

It is all too human to want to hit back at those who hit out at us. Wemay not be physically violent, but rather exact a sort of politerevenge on the person. Privately wishing them ill; slipping in a subtleunkind word about them; freezing them out of our circle. Jesus tells usto avoid any sort of revenge or payback. No need to get bogged down inthe literal details of his teaching, rather we get the main point.Which is not to hurt those who hurt us. Not to use the law as a coverfor the taking of personal revenge.

Of course in our society, crime is punished and the law takes itscourse. But on a personal hurt level, we are not to strike back butrather put up with the trivial injustices that may come from theactions of other people. Turning the other cheek is applied toindividuals. We might not base our legislation or our internationalrelations on it.

At its most basic level, forgiving someone is refusing to hurt them asthey have hurt us. Turning the other cheek is one expression offorgiveness. It may seem painful, it may seem unfair. But retaliatingwith another slap on the face will lead to even more pain and notactually resolve the fairness issue. By not retaliating I am decidingto break the vicious cycle of hurt and counter hurt. I am not condoningwhat has been done to me. I am choosing not to let it dominate me. I amchoosing not to respond to the hurt by another hurt.

The pain of being slapped in the face is not eased by slapping someoneelse's face. The hurt only goes when I choose not to inflict furtherhurt. A stinging cheek is a small price to pay for such an outcome.

BlessingsDavid Reay

Christianity EtcThe End Is So Near: U Need To Read This! by Yefet(op): 8:11pm On Aug 16, 2010
by Margaret Quarcoo on Monday, August 16, 2010 at 11:19am

A friend just shared this with me, U need to read this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Dear Brethren,

I had a strange dream. I saw myself and another sister walking side by side jesting normally, a man was walking at the other side; suddenly the man turned and said hey, the rapture has just taken place 30 seconds ago, and looking at the time it was 1.30 AM. The man proceeded by saying go in the left direction you will find other Christians there, do not go in right direction they are taking the mark already, go now I give you 1 min. I asked him what about you? He turned and said I am the antichrist who has lived in your midst for so long waiting for this day.

I was confused, but my spirit said, run my son, run. We ran and on covering some distance I turned back, lo and behold, the man we left has turned to the antichrist. We kept running and saw many other people running as well. We got to a very large auditorium, too large to be described and behold multiples of Christians. Brethren it was a terrifying experience people of high standing with God, Prominent men and women of God, loved ones and friends. I couldn't comprehend this so I screamed, all of us? God what happened? The Lord now took me in the spirit to five churches.

In a predominant church of one tribe, I saw the pastors announcing that the rapture has just taken place and that people should start receiving the mark right there in the church that this will substitute the said beast mark and enable them buy and sell. Brethren what made me weep was that the innocent and ignorant members started receiving this mark not knowing it was actually the mark of the beast. The Lord then said all these pastors are Agents of the beast who have been ordained to mislead the people and who already have the beast mark before his manifestation, and I saw marks on the right arm of all these pastors. A brother who was fortunate to see who to call him to start running down to the place where all other Christians were was shot in the leg as he was about climbing the top of the Christians hide out.

Then the Lord took me again to another church where the pastors were just speaking of the good things of the scripture and didn't talk about the second coming of Christ and warning the people of the wages of sin. The irony of it was that all these pastors were left behind and members.

Then I saw another church where people did real emphasis about the coming. But all the people didn't go as a result of the hidden sins which weren't known to man and they didn't count them as sin. I wept bitterly because this was a church where holiness was professed to be held in high esteem.

I saw another church where people concentrated mainly on attacking demons and where the true word was also preached but the people also didn't go due to malice and lack of spiritual concentration.

I saw yet another church where the people were actively involved in preaching the word and talking about the second coming, however these people didn't go. The whole lot were full of hypocrites who disguised themselves in shepherds' clothes.

I was then taken back to the place where the multitudes were and then I saw that the people of the beast came and Christians started scrambling for safety. Brethren it was a terrifying experience. Women forgot their children, husbands their wives. We ran and got to another place of hiding but the surprising thing which should make all quivers was that the population was now so small that it was easy for everyone to identity each other as family and friends started peering up. The Lord then said others have received the mark.

Brethren the people I saw made me weep uncontrollably; prominent men of God, Christians and loved ones. I now asked the LORD why all these one and God showed me different people and men of God saying: this man was perfect with me until 2 hours ago. That other had a small portion of his heart released to the devil. That other brother was too occupied with the things of the world in terms of land and property acquisition that they took over his life. That other, I gave him a mandate to pay a certain portion of money to the church and he procrastinated it till now: sin of disobedience. That other so much love his cheque book than his life you can even see that he has his cheque book with him I wonder what he can buy with the money now: hope you know they are no more his?

I wept because so many little things which we humans don't count were counted by God. I now spoke with a confused voice, help us Lord!!!!!

The Lord then said all these things which have been happening on earth have all pointed to the end but despite all my people did not take heed. I am giving the last warning; consecrate your heart to Me My people, the trumpet would have been blown 1 hour ago but I pleaded with My Father. However I can plead no further. The trumpet is already in the mouths of the Angels already to be blown. SO PREPARE YE THY WAYS OH MY PEOPLE. Tell My people to read Matthew 16:3. And warn all the ministers who have gone in the ways of BAAL. THIS IS TRUE AND BELIEVE IT OR NOT THE RAPTURE IS AT HAND!!!!!! HELL AND HEAVEN IS REAL. REPENT YE MY BRETHREN.

A LIFETIME OF FORGIVING

Read Matthew 18:21-22

21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive someone who sins against me? Up to seven times?"

22 Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.

We would like ethical conduct to be precisely defined sometimes. Showus how many times we have to do a certain thing and we will do it. Nomore, no less. What exact amount should I give away? How many minutesor hours a day ought I to pray? How many times a week should I visit asick friend?

And in this case, how many times do I forgive someone who wrongs me?Peter reckons seven times might be fair enough. Jesus' reply is not tobe taken literally: that would be setting up a new legal limit. Crossme seventy seven times and you will be forgiven, cross me one more timeand the deal is off! His reply is another way of saying forgivenessknows no limits.

This short exchange tells us something about the nature of forgivenessas well. It is a process, not an event. Sometimes a person may hurt usrepeatedly and we might have to go on offering forgiveness. Notingthat unless the person responds positively there will be no actualreconciliation. And noting that this doesn't mean we are to cop abuseunnecessarily: we might need to exercise forgiveness from a safedistance some times!

Deep or ongoing hurts are not likely to be healed overnight. Don't bediscouraged that you find forgiving hard. It is meant to be hardbecause it is intent on facing and naming the hurt. Denial would bemuch easier. When we begin the journey of forgiveness we begin aprocess of healing. We have hiccups along the way. But with the help ofthe God who forgives us, we can reach our destination. Just because ittakes time to forgive doesn't mean it is a waste of time to begin.

Christianity EtcThe Rich Man In You by Yefet(op): 10:11pm On Aug 15, 2010
The Rich Man in You



16/08/10



Luke 18:25 Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.



The passage above talks about how hard it is for a rich manto enter the Kingdom of God, yes allot of folks who are not rich always feelconsoled by this verse as they feel it will be of great benefit to be poor soas to enter the Kingdom of God. But the verse is so deep that most of weChristians only look into the shallow meaning of the verse and see it as deathsentence to the rich men in our society.

Being RICH can bedefined as the availability and accumulation of wealth/resources, materially, financiallyor any form that make's you have control over your economic and social needs.



Now we have an idea of who is Rich based on my personal definition.The Bible is not talking about the (Luke 18:25) wealth of the Rich-Aristocrats asthe only hindrance to stop them from entering heaven alone. We have tounderstand that the Riche's the Biblealso talked about is our attitudes. What are the negative and sinful attitudesyou are Rich in? Are you Rich in pride, envy, jealousy ,slander ,Malice,stealing , lust ,fornication/adultery , gossip, arguments, disobedience,false-witnessing attitude , drunkenness , selfishness etc ? Those are attitude allot of Christiansaccumulate in them and is presently available in their live's, that the Bibleis asking us to address today, as such Riche's of sin, can hinder us fromentering the Kingdom of Heaven.



It does not matter if you are Poor, middle-class or wealthyin the society today, if you have one of the Riches' of sin, that is mentionedabove and also unmentioned, please tryand address it today, before it is too late. The more we accumulate Riche's ofsin inside us no matter how little it may be; please brother's and sister'saddress it before it's too late. The Rapture could occur any second from nowand with such Rich deposit of sin inside you, it could make you miss it (God forbid, I praynon of us miss Rapture in Jesus name).



Galt 5:21 . Envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sinslike these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living thatsort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God.



Math 5:3. "Blessedare the poor in spirit, for theirs is thekingdom of heaven.



Please try and be poor in the attitude of sin, make sure thereis lack of sin in you no matter how small the details of sin may be, Pleasemake sure you live Holy, Faithful and Upright. Get your habit's, attitude and characterright and get rid of any Richness of sin out of your life .Be Poor in sin, letyour life be a picture of Christ. You are the only Bible some people may seebefore the accept Christ! Please love all people, live in peace with oneanother, be humble forgive anyone that wrongs you be faithful and obedient tothe Law's of God and also to people around you.



Phi 4:5. Let your gentleness be evident to all for Christ isnear.



If you have any Richness of sin inside you that you are strugglingwith, please talk to men/women of God to help you with counseling, advice andalso prayers. Always personally pray in your room and ask God to consume all Richnessof sin inside you today in Jesus name. Do that as often as you can, so you canbe rapture ready.



Heb 12:4. Make every effort to live in peace with all menand to be holy; withoutholiness no one will see the Lord.

before going to church I said this prayer "Oh Lord please let them talk about Rapture at the service" I said that prayer to confirm from the Lord about all the Rapture notes I have received and how close, and Lo and behold! Rapture was what, we treated at the Sunday-School and now this very note from Dr.Youseff. Please bro and sister's Rapture is very at hand- Work your Salvation with fear and trembling and also try to win more souls for Christ. I pray the Grace of Christ Jesus keep you faithful and holy till the Rapture in Jesus name.
