Something that you steadfastly, decisively set your mind on? If the answer is yes, then you can vouchsafe by saying there was no one and nothing that could stop you. No power on earth, or powers of darkness dislodged you from your determination. Because when you have determined something, you have already nailed it down and it is ironclad. Even if it takes your whole entire life to see it come to pass, you are immovable in it as long as it takes. It a sense, you already see it done.   Jesus set His face steadfastly to go to Jerusalem where He would finish the work His Father gave Him to do. The determination of Jesus Christ is one most overlooked feature of Himself in terms of us not applying it to our lives. Jesus determination was fixed, not subject to change, and enduring. Which I fully believe that His determination goes well beyond what most of think. The life of Jesus Christ in you by way of the Holy Spirit is His power in you that makes you grab onto what Christ's determinations are for earthly life, for character building, for spiritual maturity, and things to come. Christ was determined to go to the Cross, He is determined to return in His in the Second Coming. He is determined to overthrow Satan's kingdom, and determined to set up His Kingdom of Righteousness, and determined to have you there.   He is determined to receive you into the Household of faith. He is determined to set you free from the strongholds of Satan's kingdom. He is determined to love you, walk with you, bless, comfort and teach you. He is determined to lead you to your eternal home in Heaven.   Where is your face steadfastly set and looking towards? Whatever you set your face towards, you heart had to set itself first towards what you are looking at which becomes your direction. What is your determination? The question can only be answered honestly by you. There is a Heavenly Jerusalem where your face must steadfastly be looking and should be your determination.   There are many determinations you have through out your earthly life, but there is one that must become the chief of determinations and steadfastness. Which is to enter into what His heart is determined to do in you, and in this world, and in the world to come.   "Remember to turn your eyes heavenward, and your heart heavenward too. Look to Christ; do not fear. There is no stumbling when a man walks with his eyes looking up to Jesus. He who looked at the stars fell into the ditch; but he who looks at Christ walks safely." ~Charles Spurgeon

But there is something else that we must see, and that is 'the man' rather than the things he did by the mighty hand of God.   I believe the Lord led me on softly and slowly through the leaflets of the Bible lately, to see Moses real life. And in doing so, it became clear to me that his life and times were just like ours in many striking similarities as Believers. When it entered into Moses heart at forty years old to deliver his brethren, the children of Israel, he went out one day and murdered an Egyptian man. What God had caused to enter into his heart must have been fierce and powerful. We see how the untamed part of himself leaped ahead of God in a homicide.  Moses became a fugitive dwelling in a desert until he was very old. THEN was he called when he had no expectation of it.  In fact, I would submit that what happened forty years before he had put behind him, and tried to forget about it. But God did not forget about it. Because Moses was sent back by God to where he fled from, and he was afraid. He was unpolished so to speak, and asked God who it would be that He would send with him. God allowed his brother Aaron to go with him.  Further onward in the story, we see that Aaron sinned in making an idol, a golden calf for the people to worship. After that, Moses stood alone. He met with God to ask again whom it would be that He would send with him, that would take Aaron's place.    God answered, "My presence shall go with thee and I will give thee peace.' And added, "There is a place by Me and thou shalt stand upon a rock....and I will put you in the clift of the rock." You see, there will come a time that God will remove the "Aaron's" in your life, and He will take their place.  He will then invite you to stand in that place by God the Father upon the Rock Jesus Christ. Because you are born again and live in Him. He will be your companion.  The Christian needs only to look at the entire life and times of Moses, only to truly see their own lives the same way. Moses the adopted grandson of Pharaoh became not only a deliverer and judge, but the "King of Jeshurun" in the end. You are not only sons and daughters of the Most High God, but will one day soon be Kings and Priests unto God now and forever more. "The seasons change and you change, but the Lord abides forever the same, and the streams of His love are as deep, as broad and as full as ever." Charles H. Spurgeon

Something eventually will come down the pike to call them them into the ring. It is just the way it is. Sometimes it will be a full scale assault from demonic invading forces. Other times it will be terrible things that happen that are just part of this life. And many times, that is when the enemy of our souls rides those terrible things like a carnival ride.  We do not really know what is in us until we are pushed into a corner, and we realize we have to fight or die. I know that is an extreme way to put it. But no one ever fights for something that has zero value. Our first response to an attack or some hard thing thrust at us feels like a sucker punch that leaves us staggering about.    I have noticed that during that initial strike we become instantly overwhelmed, and that is when we feel as if we cannot stand up to it. Not long after a moment occurs that I have experienced, and it is when I lock into that fight. I can feel the power of the Holy Spirit and His great weightiness enter within to fight for me. When you think about it, when has even a nation not fought to save it's own citizens and land? When has a mother not stood up and laid down her life for her baby? Even animals do the same.   Christ fought for you and me. He fought the greatest fight that is unmatchable. He did that in order to save you, and to fight for you through your life. To undergird you with power, and to arm you with Himself. Your life may be in what feels like a meat grinder right now.  You may feel that waves and billows are crashing upon your head and you cannot come up for air. While others are being pursued by evil human sources and spirits.  Jesus Christ sits in His throne in heaven as your Defender. He died and lives for you, and He will live with you and when you come to die, He will be the first one to meet you. Jesus stood at the right hand of God at the stoning of Stephen to honor him. Yet, I tend to think that Jesus also stood up to be the One to greet Stephen at his entrance into eternity. I believe Jesus stands for you now as He did for Stephen, and will also welcome you into heaven with joy. This life is not forever, and we "fight the good fight of faith" and we "war a good warfare."    Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward." For He saith, "I will never leave thee nor forsake thee."   "He will place you on the battlefield with courage and take you off with honor." William Gurnall

It is just the way it is. It is the course of this life. Like Jacob said in his last address to Pharoah, "The days of the years of my pilgrimage are an hundred and thirty years: few and evil have the days of the years of my life been..." In fact, every one that we read about in the word had long lives that were considered "few and evil."    Consider Abraham. God at first called him, "The friend of God." Later on God says of him, "Abraham, My friend." And farther on Ezra says, "Art not thou our God, who didst drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?" So we see that the first time the word friend is ever mentioned was regarding Abraham. And it looks like it was not a stagnant friendship, but a growing one. God saw that he had faith in Him regarding the unknown and what seemed impossible.     This carries through into the New Testament where Jesus says, "I no longer call you servants, I now call you friends." The very idea that we can be His friends is incredible. I received such a wonderful revelation of that the other morning. It was as if a great light burst through from within, and an wonderful peace and comfort rushed in. I knew also in a deeper sense that everything was taken care of, and felt a lightness in my soul. Our great Friend comforts us when we least expect it. He will comfort you too.   "A rule I have had for years is: to treat the Lord Jesus Christ as a personal friend. His is not a creed, a mere doctrine, but it is He Himself we have." ~D.L. Moody

He added to that by saying that He had a greater witness than that of John, and that His works bore witness of Him that he was sent by the Father. It is clear that Jesus is "the Light of the world." There are what seems like literally hundreds of scriptures that speak about light that have to do with Jesus Christ. Jesus did not speak about Himself being a greater light, but One that was sent to finish the work given to Him.  Luke records John the Baptist being in prison, and sent two of his disciples to ask Jesus if he were the One to come, or should they (the Jews) look for another? Jesus answered, "Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me." Luke 7:22-23.   The burning and shining light seemed to have dimmed in prison, but the answer that Jesus gave him was all but it was enough. John accepted the unexplained. And I believe a light shone in his cell, and in that light he lived till his prison door opened, and he stepped across its threshold in the the Land of Light.  Look at Paul the Apostle. Paul's "hired house" was probably a room in a crowded lodging house. It is not likely that he could have afforded more. He was of course chained to a soldier; the four walls of his room made a prison. There must have been noise, crowding, loneliness, no privacy, not much outlook, little if any beauty and, above all, a terrific temptation to feel as tough he were not getting on with things. The golden secret of courage is found in the presence of our Lord.    Perhaps some of us are sorely tempted to think that just now there is not much that is "burning" about our lives. Some are ill, some have duties of very simple sort. Where does burning come in? Where did it come in when John the Baptist was shut up in prison? He could not do anything but just endure, and finally not be offended, and not doubt his Lord's love. But when Jesus spoke of him, He said, He was a burning and shining light.  He still is ever a burning and shining light, and so is everyone whose hearts are burning within them that love Jesus Christ. "Did not our hearts burn within us as He opened unto us the scriptures?"   "Of all the things in the world that can set the heart burning, there is nothing like the presence of Jesus." Charles Spurgeon

Even the heartiest of Believers fall down under severe blows. "Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall." But that does not change the fact that God is still God, and will never cease to be God in all-power. The children of Israel experienced something that no other people on earth did, nor since. That dark night, all looked to be lost and death imminent, God told Moses to stretch forth the staff in his hand over the Red Sea. God caused "the depths to congeal." "He made a way for the ransom to cross over." They "went through the midst of the sea." Paul tells us that God marched with them through it.   That same God who went with the children of Israel through the midst of it, is the selfsame God that will do the same in your life. If He did it for them, He will do it for you, me and all who cry out to Him. He does not only for our sakes only. Remember, He said He did it to make Himself known to His children's enemies. He said, "I will get Me honor upon Pharaoh."   You see it is a guarantee that we are going to have severe onslaughts from this world and the enemy. When we read about these redemption miracles, it is not just a story we tell, and turn into cartoons for our children to watch. But for the very express purpose to bear witness to us that He will deliver us. God made that so clear to me this morning, and in the eyes of my spirit, I saw the same Red Sea walls on either side of me, and Jesus Christ in the midst with me.    He is in the midst of you, and will forever be in the midst of His people now, and for all eternity. He got His people over to the other side, and He WILL do the exact same for you, "that the name of Jesus Christ will be glorified" in the midst of you "world without end."

It's just the way it is. Jesus never said it would be easy. We have to go along the trodden path He made for us. We go the way of the Lord. I have been reading lately about the Hebrew slaves who were under heavy oppression by the Egyptians for four hundred long years. It says that the cries of the oppression from the people reached the ears of God in heaven, and He came down to see about it. No, they did not cry to God, they only cried under heavy burdens without hope. They had forgotten to go to God personally and collectively. However, God in His tender mercy still heard every single cry and came down. He delivered them with a great deliverance that no other people on earth can compare.   I thought of the Prodigal Son this morning as I sat in the dark, early morning in prayer. The story just entered into my mind, and a deeper sense of that story came in like a door opening and letting light in. I heard in my heart, in a deeper than usual place, "The Prodigal Son represents a fallen believer that comes to his senses and returns home to His Father. But there is something else to consider. There are many people that are not sinning, yet in a sense prodigal in the respect that though they were born in His House, have left off to live without Him, having received their initial salvation.  They are not sinning but in pain. They have been under heavy oppression for a very long time and are conditioned by it. God hears their cries of pain and oppression. They have stopped long ago going to God about it. They in a understandable sense, gave up. So in a sense, they are prodigal in that they join themselves to the world to look for peace. They apply methods to get peace, they go to others to have peace. But they spend all they have "spiritually," and become famished.    The prodigal knew it was time for him to go home to His Father, and rehearsed what he would say unto Him. But before he even saw his Father, his Father saw him, and still, before he could get one word out that he rehearsed, His Father was kissing his face, and hugging him. Today, though you are not sinning, but in pain, injured mortally, and famished spiritually. Arise, and go to the Lord. No need to rehearse. He knows all about it. Return today, and let your heavenly Father kiss you, and wrap His arms around you, and give you rest forever. The kind of peace you have been looking for on earth is not available. You must look upwards to your Father in heaven.  Jesus said, "My peace I give you, My peace I leave with you, not as this world gives, but as I give. Let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid." He sits on His throne in the mount of God in heaven, and you must climb the hill, you must become a mountaineer, and there you will "see Him who is invisible," and you will have rest for your soul. But you must remain there.

They want to pray, but there are so many things that stop them in the way. Things like how they sound, or what they say is not going to get God's attention. When they pray, they basically unpray their prayers with trying to convince God why they would understand why He would not answer them. Others stand outside of it asking others to go in and pray for them because they feel they do not know how.    There are endless how-to books that work against the sweet simplicity of prayer.  Along with theologians who intellectually turn it into something that creates great distance between God and the people trying to pray. I think of King David in his bedchamber at night, in the dark, speaking to God with nothing in hand. I imagine Paul in chains looking out through a tiny prison window with bars, speaking to Jesus about things in His heart, having nothing in hand.  I see Mary Magdalene arising and going to the tomb while it was yet dark. She went with nothing in hand, and in her going, she meets the risen Lord in the way. Even Jesus when He went alone in prayer, carried nothing in hand. For "He arose a great while before day, and went out into a solitary place and there prayed." He had nothing in hand.   God wants us to come to Him when we are weary, lonely, scared, and many other reasons of desperation. But there is a reality in prayer overlooked. That prayer is not just a thing only, but a place. Jesus is our refuge and strength. He is our Fortress, our High Tower, and Deliverer. He is our Hiding Place, a Covert from the storm. It is not always about terror and fear. He wants us to dwell with Him in under the shadow of His wings, under His hand and nothing in ours. To abide there in peaceful rest while the world marches around us. "The strength of the hills is His also."   "So wait before the Lord; Wait in the stillness. And in that stillness, assurance will come to you. You will know that you are heard; you will know that your Lord ponders the voice of your humble desires; you will hear quiet words spoken to you yourself, perhaps to your grateful surprise and refreshment." -Amy Carmichael

The true believers are well aware of what is happening around them. While this world is trying to hang on to time, we know that we are running out of it. To the unbeliever and lukewarm, "self identifying" Christians, they are doing everything they can to hang on to a putrifying world. Millions have already sold themselves out to a bio-method of survival. There are others in the millions that refuse the bio-method knowing it is a concoction meant to destroy. This is causing a world-wide stand off. I want to focus on the true believers. As all of us see a tidal wave barreling towards us, we are taking new spiritual inventory.  It is not business as usual with heaven.   Three days ago I thought about one of the things Jesus said to Nathanael. "Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee, I saw thee under the fig tree, believest thou? thou shalt see greater things than these. And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man."   Jacob also saw a ladder set upon earth reaching to heaven. The pre-incarnate Christ standing at the top of it. Angels of God ascending and descending up on it. It is observable, that some of the Jewish writers understand the ascent, and descent of the angels, in Genesis 28:12, to be, not upon the ladder, but upon Jacob; which makes the phrase there still more agreeable to this; and so they render in Genesis 28:13, not "above it", but "above him." What does that mean for us? That the ladder is a visual of our communication with heaven is wide open. The activity of the angels shows how much activity there is upon our lives. How much God is with us, answering our prayers, his angels protecting us. Jesus stood on the top of that ladder upon Jacob. That same ladder stood upon Jesus while on earth, and now stands above and upon us.  Those same heavens being thrown open have remained open ever since.  The greater things Jesus told Nathanael he would see, is now the "greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world." And "greater things will we do because He has gone to the Father in heaven." As evil and darkness become greater, so will the light, power, and glory of Christ become greater and greater. By and by, in a sense, says Jesus here, "ye shall see this communication between heaven and earth thrown wide open, and the Son of man the real Ladder of this communication." Christ is unmatched in His saints now and forever.

This is the end of America. Jesus spoke one day to those accusing Him saying, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand." In another place He says, "For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places."   These words could not be truer than now.  We are seeing this kingdom of America rise against itself. And yes the birth pangs are here, and the Kingdom of Heaven is about to be birthed. The Lord made it clear before that "every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation." This nation is currently trending towards that end.   Today Jamie Waldon masterfully gives a strong word to the body of Christ about the sure word of God. That no matter what everything looks like or what happens, it is in knowing God that will take care of everything concerning our lives. Not any acrobats and ingrained mechanics of religious structures. Those things never make mighty men and women of faith.    What is coming will demand knowing God personally by an intimate, loving faith. He speaks about the strength and confidence in Christ, through Christ's "power of an endless life." A great testing and separating the wheat from the tares is happening. Jamie makes it clear through the word that Jesus never said it would be easy, but that He would see us through it.   This is such a potent message of putting the greatest of our faith, and steadfast, devoted love in the God of our salvation. He beautifully encourages the body of Christ to have their hearts and minds firmly made up to trust the Lord Jesus Christ completely. To truly know that it is Jesus that WILL do everything for us. That we can rest in His love in the worst of what is coming. And finally, to enter into the glory of the King of Saints, where we will sing, "Great and marvelous are they works Lord God almighty" forever and ever, "world without end."

A couple of nights ago I had a dream. It was very clear and plain. A time is swiftly coming upon us that we have never experienced, seen or heard of before. Because it is so great, the whole world does not know what to make of it. Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are in choice-mode. It is in the hardest, severest trials and circumstances that prove what people are all about. It brings out unto the surface what they really believe and who they put their trust in.   In the word we read, "The path of the just is like the shining light, (sunrise) that shineth more and more unto the perfect day (eternity." Also, "the righteous that hold onto his righteousness shall grow stronger and stronger."  There are many other scripture references that show the wicked grow more wicked, the deceiver becoming more deceptive. And the righteous grow more and more righteous. It is my heart's belief that what is coming is going to bring out who really belongs to the Lord. What is coming upon us is happening NOW. Everyone will have to make a red-line decision. The physical bodies of everyone now are being demanded of them to comply with an injection. Those that are born again are the "temple of the Holy Spirit." They want nothing to do with it knowing full well what is in it. Those that want nothing to do with it will make that choice knowing what will happen to them.   In John 6:66-71 it  says, "From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him. Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.  And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the Son of the living God. Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve."  Jesus knows who are His and who are not. During the coming months as things progressively deteriorate, multitudes will betray Jesus just like Judas. They will "leave Him and walk no more with Him." Jesus asked all of His disciples the same question giving them the same opportunity to count the coming cost of continuing on with Him to the end. I believe Jesus is asking all of us the same question in the same regards he did with His disciples.    Make sure when you answer Him by counting what the coming cost will be. Knowing that it could mean your very life. The cost will be greater than anything we will have ever imagined. If you say the same words in the affirmative as the disciples, then the Lord will take you seriously, and will walk with you all the way through, and see you into heaven. This is a solemn question in a very solemn time.

Coming from her most of us know what she meant. She is correct in saying it does not exist here in this earth. We may have some years of feeling secure here and there, but things always seem to come around that create insecurity. She also said, "Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God." She clearly said this from personal experience.   I say these things because today Jim Kulka had a message on his heart he was compelled to share. His message is to convey to all those who are feeling lonely, insecure, and perhaps fearful of the unknown future barreling towards us, that we can solidly take God at His word. Jim beautifully shares the word in a refreshing flow of living waters out of  the central stream from his heart. The source of that eternal stream is Jesus Christ.   He reminds us that the most important source of our life is the Living Bread. That "man does not live by bread only but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God."  Jesus Christ is the Manna from heaven, our divine supply for our entire mortal life. We can completely rely on His word all the days of our lives until He closes our eyes. When we finally get to heaven, we will all sit down to partake of the "Hidden Manna" together, with all saints as a reward of our eternal life. We will praise the Lord with great shouts of thanksgiving "for all the glorious things He had done for us!"    "There are no ‘if’s’ in God’s world, and no places that are safer than other places.”  ~Corrie Ten Boom

We have technology that has given us the ability to project far out in advance in days, months, even years. There are ways to come close to accurately predicting weather. The Financial institutions have trend forecasting that launches out decades in advance.  However, what is coming upon us is largely in the realm of unknowing. As people of modern technological foreknowledge, we have never been here before. For the first time we do not know what is coming. Though we can come as close to trying to know, we cannot at this time in human history.   In Luke chapter 9 we read about the Transfiguration of Jesus. Peter, James and John were there in a short distance as Jesus prayed. At one point "there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud. And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him."   The very moment they "feared as they entered into the cloud," there came a voice. And when that voice passed, Jesus stood alone. Yet, He stood with the three men, and the three men with Him. That cloud they feared was the shadow of the Most High God. You see, there are many clouds that might block the view of God. Clouds of sorrow, Clouds of deep despair, Clouds of thick darkness out of losses, and the seemingly fearful clouds of unknowing.   Remember, when you enter into a cloud and begin to fear, it is from out of that cloud you will hear God speak to you. He will always say "Do not fear." Let us not be afraid of clouds. The shadow is the shadow of our Beloved. he is very near to the place where His shadow is. Where Jesus stood alone with the fearful three, He will also stand with you, and you will hear Him and be comforted no matter what happens in the realm of unknowing.

There is no wondering about if we are anymore. The saying, "the handwriting is on the wall" is no more just a snap colloquialism. It is now as real in content as it was to Belshazzar on the night he saw the literal hand of God write on the plaster of the wall.  We have had the time over the years to ingest the word of God. Read at our own leisure and study it just the same. Many people have "lived by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." They considered it, "more than their necessary food."   The word has been tried in the lives of multitudes of people to be the pure, infallible, faithful word of God. Multitudes of lives can attest to the Lord keeping His word in every situation. However, things are about to change pretty quickly here for the worst. What freedoms we have enjoyed are quickly being abolished. Things we have mostly all took for granted will disappear. Our food supply is on life support. The plague is rampaging, and the government demand to "obey or else" will decide every way of life.   However, that very Bible we have spent our time reading, learning and trusting Christ in will have to become more real than ever. More real than anything else. Everything that is written in the word must be more valuable to us than anything. We are alive now for this time. Not for more endless Sunday sermons, then pizza afterwards. His word MUST become so real in every situation the people of God find themselves in. God WILL make all of us equal to the severe storms ahead in power and faith. Make sure you read the word and believe upon everything. It was written for us to know what God wants us to do and how to do it.    "For myself, I cannot stop wondering and questioning why, in particular, we each have been chosen for this time. I am, in a way, an "accidental soldier"- faithful to our General and Commander God, but dreading the front lines of this war, knowing there is victory at the end but many fox holes beforehand."  ~Comment by Anon Source

It was in his heart to personally share about how thankful he is, along with those that serve with him. He shares with us the insights on how they evangelize.   He takes us all on a short but insightful journey into the nation of Pakistan, and gives beautiful testimonies of the many places he visits, the beauty of the people, and their reception of the gospel. And sometimes not so receptive. Pastor Zoni is a tireless worker in the last days harvest.  He is truly unlike any laborer I have ever seen. Others that work along side of him have that same caliber of heart-service to the Lord.   I have to say that in my short time I have worked with him and the others, there are rich, fertile fields of harvest. When Jesus said that the harvest is truly great but the laborers are few, I now know what He means. There are thousands getting saved through the very few sold out, and dedicated men and women laborers of Christ.  However, there are not enough disciple-making people to train the new believers.   If you are moved in your heart in joining these rich, ripe fields of harvest in Pakistan, the door is wide open. There is much need for teachers for widows, and their little children. For the brickkiln people who are in slavery, for the young and old. Please pray about joining Pastor Zoni.  You can reach out to me first and I can connect you to him. You will not believe how ripe and ready all of the people are who are ready to receive and learn about Jesus. They are the hungriest, thirstiest people I have ever encountered. It is the most awesome thing I have ever had the privilege of being a fellow-laborer in. I hope to see you there.   "Jesus has redeemed not only our souls, but our bodies. When the Lord shall deliver His captive people out of the land of the enemy He will not leave a bone of one of them in the adversary's power. The dominion of death shall be utterly broken."

We are seeing everything happening in swiftness in the natural realm and the spiritual realm in tandem. Nations, states, cities, towns, neighborhoods and homes are being divided into wrathful warring factions.   Jesus said at the end brother will betray the brother unto death, and other family members will do the same. Which shows the final condition of mankind at the end. I believe we are fast-tracking there, and by this fall and winter we are going to experience persecution in ways we never could have expected.  There is a solid witness-bearing 'knowing' that we are in the countdown.   Not to mention the final church age prophecies are being swiftly fulfilled as I speak. Yet what is happening is meant to weed out the true believers from the false, luke-warm ones. I have this spiritual sense, and in the eyes of my mind I can see Noah, his wife and family all sitting alone in that big cavernous ark. The silence among them, with the sounds of the animals within. The rain drops tapping upon the roof becoming heavier and dropping faster and faster.  The church system did not put out courageous, heart burning soul winners. It did not put out men and women like David's mighties "whose faces were as bold as a lion, whose feet were as swift as a gazelle, and who were expert in weapons in their right hand and in their left."  Very few became that in church history, but with no help of the past and post modern system. The persecution that is coming, that will come, will test all people further to the point of forceful choice. Jesus spoke of a certain man that made a great supper and bade many.   But everyone made light of it, counting their earthly possessions and relationships far more important. But a time came later when that 'man' was referred to as "the Lord," who commanded His servants to, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that My house may be filled." That is where we are now and what we must do. That is His command for us in this last time.    "Spiritual maturity is not reached by the passing of the years, but by obedience to the will of God. Some people mature into an understanding of God’s will more quickly than others because they obey more readily; they more readily sacrifice the life of nature to the will of God."  ~Oswald Chambers

The people are in total shock and total grief. The underground church is preparing now for the utter worst for themselves and their families. Though they are mighty and courageous believers, they are still human and are now facing the darkest night.   We now have knowledge that the Taliban has a hit list of known Christians they are targeting to pursue and kill. They have been going around slipping messages under the doors of the Christians telling them their days are numbered.  The Taliban are going door-to-door taking women and children. All the  people must mark their door with an "X" if they have a girl over 12 years old, so that the Taliban can take them. If they find a young girl and the house was not marked they will execute the entire family. If a married woman 25 years or older has been found, the Taliban will promptly kill her husband, do whatever they want to her, and then sell her as a sex slave. Husbands and fathers have given their wives and daughters guns and told them that when the Taliban come, they can choose to kill them or kill themselves—it is their choice.    The US Embassy is defunct and there is no longer a safe place for any believers to take refuge. Many are sitting in their homes preparing to die. All borders to neighboring countries are closed and guarded by Taliban armies, and all flights to and from have been halted, with the exception of private planes. Iron fences have been put around the airport keeping everyone out. People are fleeing in terror into the mountains looking for asylum to hopefully stay alive. They are completely, fully reliant on God, who is the only One who can and will protect them.   “Some women said they had no time to buy a burqa to comply with Taliban rules that women should be covered up and accompanied by a male relative when they leave the house. To Afghanistan's women the flowing cloth represents the sudden and devastating loss of rights gained over 20 years—the right to work, study, move and even live in peace—that they fear will never be regained.” [Source: CNN World]   Will you join with me and the family of God to stand in the gap for them? Satan is NOT all powerful, Jesus Christ is. We stand on the Lord's side, and in His name will pray and fast for the whole nation of Afghanistan, and all our brothers and sisters. Jesus said in Matthew 28:18, "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." Therefore we stand on the Lord's side and our eyes and hearts will be fixed upon the Lord for only what He can and WILL do. "To God be the glory! Shalom.

For days that thought grew stronger and stronger until it entered deeply into my heart. I thought about how many spend time with the Lord, and reading their bibles, staying connected with Him.  But there is a tidal wave of grave scenarios upon this land and more are coming swiftly. Because of these things, people are glued to their laptops, cell phones, and pouring over videos and shared articles regarding these catastrophic events. So what they have read in the word, become quickly vanquished.   It says in Amos 8:11-12, "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it."   In many places throughout the Bible God speaks of things like sin and rebellion coming up to full measure. Even the measure of our days and years on earth. He has a point where that measurement reaches full capacity. One of those measurements typically have to do with the end of a civilization. The Israelites gave up hearing the voice of God at Sinai. They gave up hearing the judges appointed by God. They gave up hearing the prophets. Then four hundred years of silence was imposed on them. They did not hear God's voice speaking to them at all for four long, dark centuries.  After those four hundred years, they refused to hear Jesus.  After the set up of the New Testament Church after Jesus died, and rose again went into heaven, until now, people have refused to listen to the Holy Spirit. They have taken everything for granted. Their salvation, their ease of having the word at their finger tips, and every kind of religious accoutrements. The finest educations, spectacular buildings and world wide ministries. I believe this world has reached it's famine-imposed initial stage. When you think about it, hearing is everything when it comes to a thriving, living relationship with God. Most especially now that it is the end of time (the Church Age), and great distress is coming upon this land. Make sure you are one of those upon this earth that are not partakers of this famine of the hearing of the word of the Lord, it will literally mean your very safety, survival and care.   "The word that cometh out of Christ’s mouth is the daily manna of our heavenly life, and it behooves every Christian, however feeble or however strong, to keep the word of God with all his might against all comers, since it is his life."  ~C.S. Spurgeon

When they do ask, it is a time of real, honest, heart reflection. They look at where they are, and from that point, look back at the years they have lived. Things that look like lost opportunities and failures. Maybe even punishments from God. Other questions arise about decisions they made along their journeys. They try to add up how they got to where they are today in a downcast way.   This question is one laced with doubt because of where they see themselves today. They ask this question in despair and discouragement. The enemy also quickly gets involved by tempting them into thinking that they did make wrong decisions, and accuses them ruthlessly in their doubts, casting them down even further.  Today Fred demonstrates through the life of Paul the Apostle the example of a truly free person. A man who lived a relatively free life on the open road preaching the gospel everywhere.  Though little by little, he began to lose freedoms he once had until he found himself in chains, and in prison.  Fred beautifully takes us on a short but rich journey into Paul's life, and an even deeper look at him in his humanity.   He directs our hearts to look up to the same God Paul did, and to know that wherever we are, wherever we find ourselves, "all things are working together for the good of them that love Him." Meaning, "the good" Paul mentioned did not mean everything would be perfect. But that God works in our lives, according to His good will and purpose are perfectly accomplished.    "There will be no doubt about His having chosen you when you have chosen Him. Often doubts will prevail. What a mercy it is that it is not your hold of Christ that saves you, but His hold of you!"  ~Charles H. Spurgeon

Many people are being informed that they cannot work unless they comply to the new mandates. Soon, many will have to make that final choice. Either to comply or, take that final leap into total abandonment to God. To comply is putting your faith and trust in the world and the things and ways of the world. The latter is proving to God that you trust Him. Trusting Him is more than to believe He will save you from whatever the system threatens us with. To not comply puts you in the category of walking in the fire with the Son of God, like Shadrag, Meshach and Abednego.  A line was drawn for them and they chose the Lord's side. It is like Daniel watching God locking the Lion's mouths in the Lion's den. Daniel had a hard line drawn for him too. Both instances were in the fullest extreme measures, and their choice was honored by Jesus Christ.  The promises in God's Word are more than sure, they are eternal. The Lord will be with us in and through the fires of this world being stoked up seven times hotter against us. At the end of this trial, the Crown of the Over-comer will be waiting for us. Do you think that God will not take care of us?  Let us trust the Lord like never before. This is the time when God's people will shine like the stars in heaven forever and ever. Let us remain courageous and faithful.   "God does not give us overcoming life, He gives us life as we overcome." ~Oswald Chambers

Reading His word was more than just reading it. I poured over it searching for something, a word that would speak to me personally. Something that I can grab onto and hold on for dear life. One day I saw the words in Psalms 16:8, "I have set the Lord always before me, because He is at my right hand therefore I shall not be moved." It was in that moment that the Holy Spirit illuminated that passage. It became more than ink and paper. Those words became "alive an active, sharper than any two-edged sword, and they became my anchor. It was as if God Himself carved those words into my heart, and to this day they remain fixed, tried and true.  I did exactly what the words said. I instantly put those words to use and exercised them. I can with certainty say that I am living proof that when I had set myself to set Christ before me, I made it out alive. "Because He was and is at my right hand." David said, "because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved. You see, setting God before you, is more than what we all think. David went on in that scripture saying, "Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope." There was an outcome to setting the Lord always before him. It gave him joy and deep heart gladness. His tongue rejoiced in God, and his physical body rested in hope.  Because God was at His right hand and David was aware of it always.  The increasing beauty of it was David began to see the eternal world and the resurrection as he aged. Further yet his eyes began to see into heavenly glory. He knew that there was a path that led there. "Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore." So we see here that David was seeing the eternal spiritual highway that leads to heaven where the Lord is. Where Christ sits on the right hand of the Father.   Make sure you set the Lord always before you, then you will see that He is at your right hand and you will never be moved. On earth He stands on our right hand, in heaven we will stand on his right hand.    "For with thee shall I live when the stars of twilight are no more, and the heavens have vanished away and only thou remainest."   ~Fredereck W.

NOTE: Due to the sensitivity issues in Pakistan, Pastor Shahzoob did his best to share with us what the Lord is doing. He did not want to jeopardize their missions. Until recently I had no idea how powerfully the Lord has been moving in Pakistan. "A door of effectuals was opened unto me," and I entered in through them into the nation of Pakistan to teach and preach the word of God. It was like I literally stepped into right into the Book of Acts. I was recently introduced to Pastor Shahzoob and have spent time talking with him. He shared with me his powerful testimony, his call from the Lord to go out and preach the gospel of salvation throughout his land. He read from the words from Matthew 28:18-20, "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto Me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." He took those words seriously and went out and preached the word everywhere. A great outpouring from the Lord has fallen upon the people of Pakistan. Through Pastor Shahzoob's life, and the lives of many others who are now risen up as a great company of tireless working saints. They are powerfully stretching themselves towards heaven in mighty praying, and evangelism. I have never in my whole life seen what is happening there, and it is a sweeping movement of God. These pastors and workers know Jesus Christ is coming again very soon, so they run hard. They run hard because they know the time is short, and they are wasting no time. Please pray for them for the nation of Pakistan.

You will feel a sense of some kind of change coming. It is notable and distinct and it begins to grow and and grow. Along with it comes a knowing that it is not originating from you. Then a time comes that you finally realize it is the Lord Himself calling you. There may have been other times, but this is a clear calling from God that stands alone. Meaning, there is a maturity clause in it that you realize demands a mature response that He deserves.   A knowing is involved as well, that this is a calling that you realize could mean a change of life. No one ever knows what the Lord has in mind so an intelligent pause happens. You know better than to give a flip answer. When you finally get to that place where you are ready to answer Him yes or no, there was time spent in truly counting the cost. Many people begin to get anxious when they feel this deep moving of God. They begin to start the process of deductive issues of why they most likely will not be able to do serve Him. They do not take into account that the Lord would never ask anyone to serve Him and then make them carry and do everything.  This is where many mighty opportunities are lost. They deduce them away with a horizontal view of "how" they are going to be able serve Christ with so much going on their lives. However, Christ is only seeking an answer from you. He is giving you a choice.   That choice is a forked road. Because when you choose to say yes, then you are enter into path of service and "a way." Do not be afraid to say yes to the Lord, and when you do, give Him room to move afterwards. It may not be tomorrow or next week, but He will come for you. He will do everything for you. Yours is only to obey in joy when He brings you into it.    "God is not after your time, your talents, or money. All He wans is you. And when He has you, He has your time, your talents and your money. But don't offer Him any of those until you've offered Him yourself." ~Derek Prince

This is often said by those who are burdened down with heavy things in life. Heavy things of the heart and mind. There are earthly things, and spiritual things. There are many scenarios of what those weights are that people have been bearing through long years and longsufferings. Yet those that belong to Jesus Christ are those that continue to "bear upon their shoulders" by choice. No matter how hard and bad things get. No matter how many times they have reached their many ends, the same choice comes down to it. They choose to go on with Christ. Because there is something far stronger than themselves. That something is a Someone. It is the life of Jesus Christ.   The Kohathites were "given the charge of the service of the sanctuary, belonging unto them was that they should bear upon their shoulders." And "their charge shall be the ark, and the table, and the candlestick, and the altars, and the vessels of the sanctuary wherewith they minister, and the hanging, and all the service thereof." (Numbers 3:31; 7:9).   To them was committed the care of the most precious things, things too precious to be carried in any other way. Perhaps you are wondering why it is you. Why it has always been you that has been bearing upon your shoulders, the lives of people you love in prayer to the Lord. And the spiritual cares of all of those who show no signs of improvement. Have you considered that it may be a charge given to you because Jesus knew He could trust you with what is precious to Him? Because He knew before He chose you that you would be faithful to in it?   Remember the Shepherd took the lost sheep, and a sheep is a heavy thing, and laid it on his shoulders. If the Good Shepherd asks us to bear upon our shoulders the care of souls, surely it is because that burden is too precious to be carried in any other way. He will provide you with strength when it gets too hard. The Father gave 'special strength' to His well-beloved Son Jesus Christ during His life. He did it for Him and our Father in heaven will do it also for you. You are a member of the Household now.   "Sometimes when we read the words of those who have been more than conquerors, we feel almost despondent. I feel that I shall never be like that. But they won through step by step, by little bits of wills, little denials of self, little inward victories, by faithfulness in very little things. They became what they are. No one sees these little hidden steps. They only see the accomplishment, but even so, those small steps were taken. There is no sudden triumph, no spiritual maturity. That is the work of the moment.” -- Amy Carmichael

That heartbeat is Christ's heart that beats in them. That compelling within is to want to not only live for Christ alone, but to share the good news of the Gospel always. Spurgeon said, "If you have no hunger for others to be saved, you are not saved yourself." Strong but true words. How many times have we dreamed of leaving all behind, and in a sense, dropping our own earthly nets in exchange for the eternal, unbreakable, gospel-dragnet.  We have read biographies of the great men and women of old who did so. We are in awe of the power of God's love towards those "that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death" from these beautiful missionaries. How these very common men and women answered the call. Many go away sad, feeling that "call" is for others more qualified and better than themselves. Today Will and Angela Williams join me in discussion regarding this very thing. Listen to how they describe with expression of their heart's greatest joy, and purest love for Jesus Christ in answering the call. Their steadfast hunger and thirst for serving the Lord is rich, fervent and aromatic. Though they answered the call in their community,  yet there was only a "famine of the hearing of the word of the Lord." There were no open doors. "They could do no mighty works there."   Yet a "great door and effectuals" were opened to them in Pakistan after they prayed, fasted and sought the Lord for what He had for them. They had no idea that would happen. Now they are experiencing a "great fountain" that has opened up there. Multitudes of the spiritually thirsty and starving men, women and children are responding with overwhelming joy. They are receiving the eternal free gift of their Salvation through the gospel Will and Angela now preach there. The people are now drinking of the refreshing, life-giving Living Waters, and partaking of the Bread of life, Jesus Christ. Let this discussion, their words, testimony and passion inspire you to know that "the call" is your call too.  Make sure you answer "The Call."  "Missionary life in only a chance to die." Amy Carmichael

Everything we know has an ending. Even Jesus told His disciples before He suffered and died, "for the things concerning Me have an end." The cycles of life and nature live and die. The day comes and goes. Everything living thing on earth has a beginning and an end. A day is coming when the end will come for this time we are in, which is called, The Day of Grace at the Rapture.  "As Jesus sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?"  He spoke of earthly distresses, wars and rumors of war, nation rising against nation, famines, pestilences, earthquakes in many places. But that was not the end, that was only the beginning of the end. He said, it was be "the beginning of sorrows." He finally answers the question in Matthew 24:14, "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come." He speaks about a notable time by using the words, "and then." Which denotes Christ ushering in the consummation of all things regarding His Second Coming.  What is interesting is when He says "then shall the end come." In the Greek translation,(Gr. καὶ τότε] "and then shall the end come," actually means, "when the announcement shall have been made throughout the whole world."  It does not mean, it is coming, it actually means, "it is here, it has arrived."   There is an end also to the Church Age, the Day of Grace, which is about to end. Then there will be a seven year period, then those days will end and the Millennial Kingdom will be established. After the thousand years are ended, which is referred to as the Seventh Day, then the "Eternity of Eternity will begin..."world without end. " Make sure that you make full proof of this time in everything you do for Christ. "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord."

The saved and the unsaved are in the same heavy, ruthless chains. Both are miserable because it is not just a physical bondage but also a spiritual one that is relentless. In their will they want nothing more to be free, but they are time and again led away in the slavery of it.  The unsaved try to deal with it in the medical secular way and still never know the true inward deliverance from it. The basically live doing nothing more than routinely mowing their fields of weeds. Many of them like Holly search for a spiritual way out. And out of desperation many find themselves entering through the doors of the occult in hopes to find deliverance.  However, they only find a counterfeit form of peace and deliverance that is short lived and empty. They wind up in a darker bondage and added chains of confusion and added sorrows. The saved that are in bondage are crying out to God to deliver them, and still many find that they cannot stop drinking, smoking. They live in shame and constant guilt, which are other chains. There are many kinds of bondages to numerous to list here. But really it is all the same thing and the same heavy chains. Holly shares with us how she was in heavy bondage to addictions, but reveals that after years of slavery, she finally cried out to God who heard her.  It was not an overnight process. She explains how it was definitely a day by day process. This is a very important discussion because many people say they have cried out to God to help them, and deliver them. Yet they go on like slaves bowing to the enemy who holds those chains. They hang their heads down, and drink and smoke and do the things they are bound in with grief. They give up asking Jesus to deliver them because it does not happen right away. But Jesus does not always do things right away, and the truth is, He will deliver.  Consider what A.W. Tozer says:  "Whenever God begins something, we have the assurance that He will finish it. Nothing will stand in the way of Him accomplishing His purpose in this world and in our lives. What God starts, He finishes, and nobody can hinder Him. Sure, delays will happen. Just remember, God is in charge of the delays as well as the progress." Amen, rest assured and have peace in your hearts, God WILL deliver you just as He delightfully delivered Holly. "He delivered me because He delighted in me." God delights in you and will deliver you just the same. You can rely on Him....Your Deliverer.

Yet, Paul tells us in James 5:11, “Behold, we count them happy which endure”  So we see that there are two words that do not seem to go together. We never really equate enduring with happiness. What does 'enduring' really mean in the Bible?"  The Greek word for endurance (or steadfast) is derived from the combination hypo, meaning “under,” and the verb meneo, meaning, “to abide.” Together they form hypomeneo, an endurance while “abiding under.”  This is a strengthening derived from bearing a heavy weight upon one’s shoulders for extended periods of time–the Biblical version of “no pain, no gain.”    The endurance we see and understand is earthly with few gains. But there is an eternally mindedness to what endurance means spiritually.  If we were only to endure great afflictions, losses, battles, sorrows and intense pains just to simply endure, then there is not happiness in it all. It just becomes something we do to "get through it." We are about to enter into a time in prophetic history that is going to demand a different kind of endurance. There is a happiness Paul saw when he described who "they" are that he counted happy. "Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the name of the Lord, for an example of suffering affliction, and of patience." James 5:10. No other class of people suffered  worse than the prophets of God. They were tortured, wandered alone, hated, despised, and were poor.  Yet, Paul accounted them happy because they saw the unseen and not the temporal. They endured and are now among the "great cloud of witnesses," in the upper glories of heaven land, full of great eternal happiness. If you are to endure what is coming, and to be counted happy, it is because you understand what enduring for what is eternal means, and for what endures forever. Then when it comes down to heavy enduring, a heaven-given happiness enters in that gives power to endure.  "The power of an endless life."  "Wait a little longer. Ah, beloved! How despicable our troubles and trials will seem when we look back upon them! Looking at them here in the prospect, they seem immense; but when we get to heaven, they will seem to us just nothing at all….Let us go on, therefore; and if the night be ever so dark, remember there is not a night that shall not have a morning; and that morning is to come by-and-by.” ~Charles H. Spurgeon

It will not take long before he starts hindering the work of a person given over to serve Christ. We are taught in the word that we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses. These witnesses are in heaven now, but their works remain here bearing witness of them. Witness of their common ordinary lives turned into powerful vessels of God in great confrontations with the devil.    Anytime there is a great work being done Satan will contest it. He will rise up and do everything he can to defy the Lord in it.  All through the Bible from the Garden of Eden until Revelation we see Satan always contending, resisting, attacking and hindering. Doing everything he can to defeat the saints of the Lord. Many have risen up to serve the Lord, and through heavy wars and battles through the decades, they "waxed valiant in the fight." They all have become lion-like people because they see Christ in everything, everywhere, all the time.  Jesus is the Author and Finisher of your faith, and will go with you through your entire life teaching you, and educating you and taking you from strength to strength, from faith to faith, from grace to grace, from glory to glory and ultimately face to face. As William Gurnall said it, "God will place you on the battle field with courage, and He will take you off the battle field with honor."   "God plants His saints in the most useless places. We say, 'God intends me to be here because I am so useful.' Jesus never estimated His life along with the greatest use. God puts His saints where they will bring the most glory to Him, and we are totally incapable of judging where that may be."  ~Oswald Chambers

He lay asleep "in the hinder part of the boat" while a "great tempest" arose. The stormy winds were blasting and the sea became treacherous and was filling up the boat. They all thought they were going to die. They awoke Jesus and He arose and "rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Peace, be still," and there was a great calm.  Later on we read that Jesus sent His disciples into the boat, but he stayed behind and went into the mountain alone to pray. In the middle of the night another great storm unleashed upon the disciples, and Jesus saw them "toiling in the rowing."  Then Jesus came to them walking on the sea and went into the boat and the "winds ceased." You see that was the second time Christ manifested Himself, His glory to His men. Elijah is another story of a "second time" visit. He was afraid, depressed and wanted to die. But the Angel of the Lord, which is the pre-incarnate Christ, visited him and gave him bread and a cruse of water.  Afterwards, "the angel of the Lord came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee. And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God."   Is it not good and comforting to know that the angel of the Lord came again the second time? We never come to the place where we pass out of reach of the compassion of God. "His compassions fail not they are new every morning, great is thy faithfulness." (Lamentations 3:22-23).There have been times for nearly all of us when we have felt the truth of the angel's word: "The Journey is too great for thee"; but have we not always found the Bread of Life and Water of Life ready for our sustenance? And in the strength of that food, we have gone on, and shall go on even unto the mount of God. "David was the last one we would have chosen to fight the giant, but he was chosen of God." ~Dwight L. Moody

He asks for prayer, "that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the Gospel." And to multitudes of Christians, they see that it ends there. The perception of boldness in Christ is that of an overt posture of strong, loud talking and proclaiming. However, there is no potent force of love behind it. It takes on a kind of left-handed delivery of the word of God. It appeals to the flesh or soulish driven believer. They think that the loud banging gong of their voices is the proof that God is speaking through these ministers. But that could not be any further from the truth. And this kind of flesh boldness is not only about preaching and teaching God's word. It has everything to do with the nature of the born again man or woman in the common daily life. In essence, there are many layers to the boldness of God by His Holy Spirit.   The boldness that the people saw in Peter and John was more than what most what is thought of at first. Yes these men were demonstrative in their affection for the Lord and His eternal word. But there are other kinds of boldness we have to explore. There is a human boldness and a spiritual one. Both are needed in righteous delivery of intended need. One can be used to bring either total harm and destruction to others, all in the name of "doctrine." While the other good kind of boldness injects itself in what is worthy to stand up for and defend.  The boldness Christ had was in the power of humility. He was not boldly proclaiming at His trial in boldness of speech that He was about to conquer sin, death and hell on His cross. No, He was meek and humble, which is tremendous boldness spiritually speaking. He went and did it boldly in that humility.  "He humbled Himself and became obedient even unto the death of the cross." That is pure boldness and power.  And there were other times He let out heavy handed, articulate, judicial boldness against those that were offensive to Holy Spirit.  The Holy Spirit is bold in both the needful correction of mankind, and also in brave, strong, sacrificial love. The boldness Jesus gives demonstrates and backs up everything given to us in in this life. There is also a gentle boldness that speaks quietly, and whispers, even in silence. That boldness is evident in those that others have seen that makes them "other worldly." People that "are no more of this world any more than Christ is of this world," for though they live in this earthly mortal world, they are those who live very near to Christ always. "When we find a man meditating on the words of God, my friends, that man is full of boldness and is successful." Dwight L. Moody

Paul the Apostle makes it very clear that there is an weighty opponent. A highly intelligent, articulate, calculating, wicked Being bent on wrathful vengeance against God. And that wrath is against all humanity, and most especially, the true Believer in Jesus Christ. Today, Fred masterfully brings to understanding through scriptural light, the spiritual battle that we enter into at salvation. The method in dealing with enemy, and the assured rest we have in the power of the Cross. He expounds by personal testimony what happens when a person gives their life over completely to Jesus Christ. How each one enters into the battle and becomes a marked man or woman from then on. Yet that man or woman who understands by God's word that they are called to be good soldiers of Jesus Christ, will also understand the words of Paul in 2 Corinthians 2:14, "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place." In 1 Peter 5:8-9, " Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world." As Fred put it, "Satan will seek to kill your faith, steal your joy, and if he can, destroy your life." But God will make a way out for us under those heavy temptations, and that "way out" is Jesus Christ Himself. The triumph and victory belong to those whom Christ purchased by His own Blood, whose names are written in His Book of Life. "The Preaching of Christ is the whip that flogs the devil, the preaching of Christ is the thunderbolt, the sound of which makes all hell shake." ~Charles Spurgeon

Right now on the surface, everything looks like it is trending towards everything nearly at the same place as "back to normal." But it is not, it is smoke and mirrors and the farthest thing from it. This nation is seeing historic droughts, a new round of a more deadly pestilence that is already breaking out in every state. The strange weather and a looming financial cataclysm is unstoppable. Skyrocketing food prices and shortages, and homelessness.   Yet there are the people of God. And I do not mean that in any random sense, because there are millions of self identifying Christians that never have known Jesus Christ. But there are those that do know Jesus because through the thick and thin of it, they keep on following after Him with increasing fervency. And God knew what He was doing all along, though during decades of their lives they have only known hardship. They are conditioned in every situation because God was all they had. They are rock solid and they deeply, and profoundly love Him more than their own lives.  Moses wrote about in Deuteronomy 32:10-12, "He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye. As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: So the Lord alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him."

A person who held your hand through many trials and temptations. The parting will not be for any failure of the relationship, but a parting ordained by God. It will be on the basis of your growth and maturity. Jonathan and David are the two people we read in the entire Bible of a friendship so potent in love for one another. A brotherly love that surpassed, "even that of the love of women."    When David was hiding out in the wilderness, and in the woods because Saul was hunting him down to kill him. Jonathan Saul's son arose, and went to David into the wood, and strengthened his hand in God. Sometimes it feels as though our souls are always being hunted and there is never a day's respite.   Souls tire of being hunted, and like David they are in the wilderness in a wood. Then was Jonathan's chance. But notice what he does; he does not comfort David that he becomes necessary to him. In essence Jonathan detaches David from himself, and he attaches him instead to his "very present help."   From there Jonathan went away to his house and David went into the wood.....alone with God.  If he had leaned on Jonathan, if Jonathan had made himself necessary to David, he would not have leaned on his Rock, and proved the glorious strength of His Rock. His whole life would have been lived on a lower level, and who can tell how many of his songs would have been left unwritten, or all the prayers to God of his lamenting, losses, griefs and victories would never have been written.   What great loss to the glory of God and to the church of all the ages had not Jonathan strengthened David's hand in God. Let that love that was in Jonathan for David be in you. That selfless, strong, brave and faithful love that detaches yourself from those you love, and strengthen their hands in God. There are always chances for strengthening one another's hands in God; let us not lose our chances.

It was not compulsory, nor a work of the flesh. It was from my heart that is connected to the heart of Jesus Christ. I say this with confidence because I know Him, and I know when He is moving. I woke up this morning with an overt penetrating sense within myself to give. To give myself away on the behalf of Jesus Christ. I felt that every little service to my family was being done from a place within myself that was freshly opened and new. It was as if I was literally doing everything towards the Lord. As I went on, that giving of myself away was growing and intensifying. The best way I can put it, was more like His life in mine. A source other than myself.  It was like everything that had a dull haze over it became a blessing of newness. I saw that my life was meant for Jesus Christ. A demonstration of His love outpoured in everything to everyone.  A little while later, I went to do a some work answering emails. I saw a video sent to me by a friend, a compilation of thirty people who committed suicide. Along with their pictures, was a brief story about who they were. One was a little eight year old boy who cast himself off the building, which was his house. He had been terribly abused my his parents. Apparently, that little child chose to die and killed himself.   As I watched this video I felt the power of the Holy Spirit well up within me and I cried out in my mind, "Lord what am I doing! What is my life!" It seemed as if I could then see in a vision a great ocean before me filled up with drowning people. They were screaming for help. It was night, and only me and perhaps a couple of others swimming around them trying to save them. I saw that they were only seconds from death and going into an eternity without Christ. There were too many to save and too few of us.  I cried. I sobbed. At the same time I felt so powerfully a great knowing that Jesus Christ is so soon to return, and that is how He wanted me to see it. I believe He is calling me. C.T. Studd once said, “Some wish to live within the sound of a chapel bell, I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of Hell.”   He also said, "The “romance” of a missionary is often made up of monotony and drudgery; there often is no glamour in it; it doesn’t stir a man’s spirit or blood. So don’t come out to be a missionary as an experiment; it is useless and dangerous. Only come if you feel you would rather die than not come. Don’t come if you want to make a great name or want to live long. Come if you feel there is no greater honor, after living for Christ, than to die for Him.”  The things I spoke about today were to me from the Lord, but I know that He wanted me to tell you. We are that close to His return. This is not a game, nor exercise, this is eternal life and that life is in His Son. As Jackie Pullinger said, "We don’t talk about ministries. I don’t have a ministry either, I just have a life...the joy is not seeing them come through, the joy is knowing Jesus. There is no other way to serve Him, but giving up your life. And this is voluntary. This is not a sentence of death at all. We are not sentenced to death, we are just privileged to answer His call."

We see the Hebrew slaves chased through the Red Sea until the last sole of the foot of the last Hebrew person was lifted out of it. We see the end of this church age much the same way. Satan will fight to the bitter end with the true believers of Jesus Christ. And this fight is real and it is increasing with violent intensity. Lately there has been a steady increase of evil leveled against the people of God more so than ever before. I believe it is for the same reason. Satan is going to fight the believers until the day we are taken out of here in the Rapture of the body of Christ.  Just as "the devil disputed about the body of Moses," he is currently disputing our departure. Literally right before the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, when Jerusalem is surrounded by Antichrist armies there will be a few men left in the city.  In Zechariah 12:8-9 it reads, "In that day shall the Lord defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them. And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem."   Those few men left in that city according to this passage will fight in hand to hand combat against these invading forces. In this epic future battle, God will give them the great and mighty anointed power as that as King David, who tore apart a bear, and tore the beard of a lion and killed them. And then He will "pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications..." We see history in the background and in the foreground already written. God has not brought us to this point in time to be swallowed up by the enemy and his malevolent forces. No way, quite the contrary. He brought us this far to see His great power in our lives, and the lives of our families, friends and all those around us. Remember Satan works for time, for he knows his time is short, but God works for eternity. Through death to life, through defeat to triumph, through suffering to joy, is God's way. "Father, may You build Your Son’s Body, destroy Your Son’s enemy, and hasten the coming of Your Son’s Kingdom!

Her story is compelling, painful, and full of victory. It is important to note that the allurement of it was not a random temptation. It was a carefully devised plan by Satan that went all the way back to a moment of a soul trauma in her very young childhood. It set her up for her entrance into the New Age paths that was a swift descent into destruction and powerful darkness.    Her story is much more than a start to finish build up. There is necessary, powerful insight that is spiritually seen in it. That is the point of her message. It is for all of us to see how the enemy enters in to a  child's life by trauma, and how that person goes on seeking and looking for a peace they cannot attain. The seduction of New Age is deeply rooted in the darkest occult practice that go all the way back to the beginning of time. It should rather be called "Old Age."   What begins as euphoric peace takes the individual into the depths of spiritual bondage and chains to demons.   In Holly's message, she shows how God kept her from many dangerous things and circumstances that could have destroyed her life, even from death. Until the moment she cried out to Jesus Christ from the lowest dungeons. Now she is wonderfully saved, healed and given a beautiful brand new life. Our prayer is that many will hear this message, share it. And let that great light of Christ shine upon those "who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death" of this very dangerous New Age Movement. That they will come out of darkness into Christ's marvelous light.

Some people either accept it as a very real place. Others think it is metaphorical or that it does not exist at all. However, the Bible continually warns of a place called hell. There are over 162 references in the New Testament alone which warns of hell. And over 70 of these references were uttered by the Lord Jesus Christ.  Recently I heard a brief teaching from a very popular young minister who is gaining a worldwide following.  His position on hell was that it was never part of the new creation. Furthermore he taught that hell is in man and comes from man. That hell is the result of James 3:6, "And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell." He believes that hell is on earth due to the wicked tongue of people. He purports that hell is not a place but replaces the word "sin" with the word "hell." That Jesus Christ died on the cross in order to get "hell out of us." His discourse was universal. Hell is a very real place, as real as heaven. Jesus said, "Behold, I go to prepare a place for you..."  Paul told us long ago what would be in the latter days, "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." 2 Timothy 4:3-4.   The only reason this doctrine of there being no real place called hell is gaining such world wide popularity is obvious. Jesus Himself said, "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat." That destruction is eternal separation from Christ in hell. Yet he adds, "Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." That life is eternal with Christ in heaven. How shocking will it be for all those that mocked the existence of hell that will find themselves there in the end. Make sure you are not among them.

Perhaps it has been a long time you have been deeply yearning for Him. You have stacks of different Bible translations, commentators, expositors and a line-up many books supposedly containing spiritual insights. You take copious notes of seemingly inspired insights that start looking like a treasure map that leads nowhere. Next you try going from one You Tube channel to another in hopes that perhaps you will find a passage-way to the "depths of Jesus Christ."  Only to find that it added up to nothing more than a monochromatic spiritual void that deepened.     We read the words of David that say, "Deep calleth unto deep..." This means that the deep heart of God is calling you from the depths of your heart. His heart is calling you, beckoning you to go with Him into His deep places. Do not be mistaken. It is not attainable by more reading, note taking, and a daily parade of videos. In fact, all those things are an external application of trying to acquire the deep things of God that only make it you feel ten times more emptier. Besides it is only more head knowledge cargo, while the entire time your heart increases in the deeper yearning.  "The deep of man’s need calleth unto the deep of God’s fulness; and the deep of God’s fulness calleth unto the deep of man’s need. Between our emptiness and His all-sufficiency there is a great gulf. . . . Deep calleth unto deep. The deep mercy of God needs our emptiness, into which it might pour itself. . . . Nothing can fully meet the depth of our need but the depth of His Almighty fulness” - And excerpt from Handfuls on Purpose by James Smith and Robert Lee - 1943   There is only one way to enter into the depths of God and that is to go to Him empty handed in prayer. Go to Him with nothing but your heart in the matter and tell Him you are ready to God with Him. To reveal to you His deep things, the depth of His riches, the depths of His love, the depths of His mercy. The riches stored in secret (deep) places. Your yearning heart of prayer is the only thing required. Do not think you can ever know what those deep things of God are. They are things only He can show you. They are His to reveal and past finding out. Let it be His joy to take you there.

It seems like the closer we get to the end the less people are looking for Jesus to return. In the video I share a dream the Lord gave to me regarding the precipice of the end. As well as some other very important insightful prophetic parallels. There were 400 years of silence referred to as the intertestamental period. God did not speak at all during that time. Between the time of Malachi and the coming of the Messiah, several prophecies were fulfilled, including the 2,300 days of desecration between 171 and 165 B.C. (Daniel 8:14).    However, the people did not put to good use either the fulfilled prophecies nor the 400 years the nation was given to study Scripture, to seek God (Psalm 43-44), and to prepare for the coming Messiah. In fact, those years blinded and deafened the nation to the point where most of the Jews could not even consider the concept of a humble Messiah. They became idolaters, and were heavily politicized. Yet they continued to build temples everywhere and religious social places to gather. Here in America 400 years ago a ship came here to the shores of America from England. Puritans were on the boat who left their land to find another land to have freedom to worship.  They signed a document called "The Mayflower Compact." It was a covenant made between them and God out at sea. They made it before they had even seen the shores of America, even before they set foot on it. Their heart was not about politics, they saw "another country, that is, an  heavenly," and that is where they set their eyes on. The eternal country of heaven. This nation may in a sense be 244 years old according to the establishing a new government in 1776. But that Mayflower Compact never ended. It was a covenant between God and themselves forever established in January 1621. Like the Israelites, the Lord brought them out of Egypt after 400 years expired. The Lord parted the Red Sea for them to pass through in the great Exodus. Soon we are going to be brought out of this world into another one, "that is an heavenly." In a dream I had 3 nights ago, I saw the words written, "Behold! Look up into the sky!" Amen. The grace of our Lord be with your spirit.

So many people have tried to the best of their ability to share something about the Lord only to beat themselves up afterwards. Inwardly telling themselves what they just said was stupid, or dumb and become cast down. They think that they could have said it better and think they have rather done damage.  Others feel so embarrassed that they could not remember where a verse was written. Or they try to share a story from the word but find themselves trying so hard to say it perfectly but find they get details wrong. They become anxious and stressed out and all joy departs.  Many who have experienced these things have spent years living with much too deep of introspection. Taking everything they do and say about the Lord to their high powered internal microscope that detects even the slightest speck of imperfection. They never can enjoy the sharing of the word because they are so hard on themselves. Yes, the enemy does get involved accusing them to the point they decide to never talk about their faith and love of God ever again.  The love of God within them is shut up, and the fountain becomes sealed.  There is always something you can give away to a hungry soul. There is always something you have in hand to feed others with. Jesus fed the five thousand who were physically hungry through His disciples with basically nothing. We know that they all ate to the full. Even leaving plenty left over. Now you go and feed them with the eternal Bread and Living Waters that are already in you to spiritually thirsting souls. Do not care how you sound, only care that you give them something. Then after you have given it, walk away and give that upward glance to Jesus Christ, and thank Him for it. It becomes His work after it is given away.

These are not easy places to be in especially to those who are deeply and sincerely committed to a life in Christ. There is a caliber of Christians that live very near and dear to the heart of Jesus. They lovingly read His word daily out of pure love and hunger for Him. They thirst after the living waters that only He can pour out to them. They pray in secret and speak to Him through out the day in real loving companionship with the Chief Shepherd.  Yet every now and then there seems to be a time where something changes, and a wrestling begins within. It is like everything stops and everything easy becomes hard to do. When this happens to younger believers there is a panic that causes them to feel as if they have sinned the Lord out of their lives. To the seasoned believer, they become quiet and listen. This may be something you are experiencing and do not know why. Perhaps you will hear these words that I share and will lead you to the Lord in open honest prayer to Him. He is the one who searches the heart and knows the minds of all His people. The Lord wants you to serve Him without a doubt, but there are things that get in the way that we are not aware of. And it is His great mercy that shows us where we might be taking over, or become passive or hardened in our hearts. Once He shows you, He will send you back out to feed the hungry and give thirst to those in desert places you just emerged from.

We see this to be true now more than ever. If there is any kind of love it has turned into love of self. This self love has rampaged through the world leaving shattered lives, families destroyed, hearts devastated and in ruins. But there is another love that his not of this world. There are many of God's own people who are love starved, and yet feel that they must do many things to gain back the love they once had and enjoyed in times past.    They begin a dry march of spiritual deadlines and applications trying to catch up so to speak. They find out that it never brings them any nearer to God, and the receiving of the outpouring of His love. But only a feeling of being further away and despondency. Things happen to people that are not their fault, that overwhelm them in this life, causing them to drift away from the Lord unintentionally. They live in spiritual sun-scorched lands, and are dying for thirst from lack of love because all other love has betrayed them.   Fred describes in today's discourse that earthly love is limited to this dimension. This love he talks about is heaven-born, and comes from a Person that is love personified, love embodied, love in purity and unearned. His name is Jesus Christ. The God of Love that is real, immune to decay, is eternal, weighty and penetrating. A love that comes to the love starving people of the world, and enters into their lives, dispelling pain, wounding, bringing about deep healing and restoration.   Without the love of God in the Person of Jesus Christ, we are all nothing. It is not a love earned by doing spiritual exercises, it is a love that comes to us when we stop trying. Lean back, and let God love you. Rest in His love. Rest knowing that His love is alive and requires nothing of you to get it. He will give it freely and envelope you in it....in Him. "Christ's love is like an ocean, you can see it's beginning but not it's end." Charles Spurgeon

The first act of suffering is to pray, and spend more time in prayer. The believer may tell those around them about their suffering, but they try to keep a happy look on their faces. They are trying to show the Lord, the world and the enemy that they will not succumb to the suffering. However, when suffering becomes long, it has a way of wearing out the heartiest of believers.  The longer it goes, the weaker they feel, and the more unable they are to pray. Not that they have no faith or stopped believing, but suffering has a breakdown in the human body, soul then spirit. It quenches the spirit, and once that happens, all forms of "trying" to keep oneself lifted up are gone. Then they feel ashamed, and begin to sink into thoughts and feelings they never experienced before. Feelings that God has abandoned them because they cannot pray like they use to. They feel that they must have done something to deserve it, and that God is now disappointed with them. They pray like before, but they avoid what God wants them to say.  They fear that if they really let it out to Him how they really feel about what is happening to them, it will be the final straw with God. Because of this fear of going to Him and allowing themselves to pour out their hearts to God, they go around with chains of sorrow like slaves in the dark.  What God wants for them is to throw down all their spiritual scaffoldings, and stop trying to look, act and sound with a  certain quasi-Christian-joy. He wants them to come into His presence and let it all come out, ALL of it. This is the only way to get free. Do not be afraid to let it all hang out so to speak with God, He wants you to get it out so He can receive it, and change your life. Go to Him now, His door is open and "the King is held in His galleries."

Times where you feel the weight of your journey in the humanity part of yourself? You wonder why things remain the same, and everything is always an upward climb. Have you experienced a moment when God removes all the spiritual scaffolding and props from around you, and down you go.  You feel like Paul who "spent a night and a day in the deep." You find yourself like King David who said, "Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD. Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications." And yet you remain in a place of feeling your full humanity.  I was experiencing that yesterday. I could not lift myself up, and finally fell asleep letting out a big sigh. In the time of morning devotions and prayer, I heard these words enter into my mind, and into my heart, "Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.  Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools. They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God."  I have heard many meditations on those passages. However, I wanted to look a bit deeper. From what I understood about that valley, is it was one single road that was the toughest, hardest, hottest and drought ridden passage.  The most incommodious one to travel on. There were many other roads that were much easier, and much more convenient than the one that went through the Valley of Baca.  This particular road was for the travelers whose "hearts were set on their pilgrimage" to the house of the Lord in Jerusalem to worship Him. The worshipers that journeyed on before always dug many little pits and ditches for water to quench their thirst. They lined them with stones so that when God sent the rain it would gather it for the other travelers to drink after them. Those whose hearts were also set on their pilgrimage to worship God. This road was only for those who did not look at it with a big sigh. Instead they welcomed it and rejoiced in it counting it well worth it. They went from "strength to strength," and everyone that traveled on it "appeared before God" in Zion at the end. Ultimately satisfying their spiritual thirst. Keep on this road you are on, because you are on the right and only one that leads to New Jerusalem in heaven. You may feel that you are going nowhere, but in reality you have been traveling all along. This is good for you to know it. Just keep going.....

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672 I think most people are not aware of is what and whom we they are leaning on. The act of leaning is a matter of trust and faith in something greater than themselves. When we think of the physical act of leaning, we see mostly all the weight of the person is upon another person. The person leaning has a weakness that requires the strength of the person or thing they perceive has strength. To cast one's weight to one side for support to lean on another while they walk is the picture I get. It is basically a reliance on the strength of another where there is weakness in the other.   What and whom we lean on has great weight in regards to choices made, how we see things, and how our perception is shaped. We read about the woman in Song of Solomon leaning upon the arm of her beloved coming out of a long  journey in the wilderness. She starts out with others, but in the end, she emerges with Him alone. When you lean upon the everlasting arms of Jesus Christ, you are making God your strength. When in trouble or despair, you lean on Christ in prayer. You lean on Him for wisdom, direction, learning, guiding and all insight. The act of leaning has to do with trusting Him completely without reservation with you all your heart, mind, soul and strength.   Who are you leaning on? What are you leaning on? It is a very important question that only you can answer. Because what you lean on you become one with. You take on the nature of what you lean into, and place the weight of your trust upon. It can mean disaster in the moment your need help or a many victorious outcomes.   What about when you need to make a critical decision that will impact your life, and the lives of your family members, or others for the rest of their lives? Lean on the arm of Jesus Christ and remain there, because if you lean on His arm throughout this earthly mortal life, and you will lean on His arm forever and ever. What a beautiful picture that will become your reality.

There is something about suffering, not as an evil doer, but as a Christian. I can honestly say that my entire life has been one big affliction, wars and endless trials. Yet woven into it are gold threads of glory where Christ is remembered in it all. Suffering does not leave us for the worst but for the better. Just like gold being tried by fire is shinier and brighter than what was previously thought to be acceptable.    I think God  gets down into us, deeper into places where we suffer the worst when no one can comfort us in. Like David said, "I looked on my right hand, and beheld, but there was no man that would know me: refuge failed me; no man cared for my soul." It is a kind of darkness that we have to adjust our eyes to see in the dark. And that seeing is only through faith to the sufferer. Jesus meets us there, and though our outward man feels like it is perishing through outward fires, there is another fire burning hot and bright within us.  When we suffer and we give God thanks and praise His name, it is not for the hard thing that has gotten a hold of us. Rather it blares it in the face of the enemy many times.  The enemy likes to pounce on those being afflicted. Though all affliction is not of Satan, many times it is just life on earth. Yet the enemy likes to piggy back on the worst of things that happen to us when he can. He is what I call "an equal opportunity destroyer." I can honestly tell you that when you begin to magnify the Lord in the face of the enemy he cannot stand it. It embarrasses him.  Not to mention God is working a work in you and around you in the sight of unbelievers, the enemy and world. God is not only at your right hand. He is in you, walking in you, working in you and protecting you. Do not be afraid to suffer because suffering precedes the crown, and that is how you will learn to judge righteously and show mercy. It is how you are learning to "rule and reign."  The Lord is your refuge and strength, and He WILL be magnified in your suffering and you will not go empty handed but full of the power of an endless life. You will have your horn of oil filled to the brim and even to the overflow. "Praise the Lord for He is good His mercy endureth forever!"

Not in the sense that we catch the reality and truth of it. We have never really spiritually perceived it and taken it in. We have heard it and then go on our way. The book of Revelation begins right away with beauty and ends in spectacular, eternal glories.  Our lives as Christians is transient. The Psalmist speaks of the the blessing of "the man whose heart is set on pilgrimage," he does not see his life on earth as permanent. He knows he is traveling from one world to another world. Psalm 84:5.  Those whose hearts are set on their pilgrimage to the other world, live their lives in this world preparing for the endless life in the other one. Since we are set one day to take on the roles of "kings and priests" then what we are here, will determine what are here and now. And everything we do during our lives has great purpose and weight.  When you take to heart this glorious truth and do nothing about it, there will be great irrevocable loss. Kings on earth prepare their sons and daughters to obtain their earthly thrones. Great care is taken to get them ready to rule and reign. Knowing this truth, there is a great responsibility on our parts to agree with the Holy Spirit to educate us, prepare us and teach us during the "days of our flesh."

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672  I think we do not realize how much our personal lives impact other lives. I am speaking in terms of not only our personal circles, but also the lives we come into contact with from day to day. Paul said in 1 Thessalonians 1:5, "For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake."   At the end of that verse he highlights "what manner of men" they were for the sakes of those they visited.  This caught my eye lately as I thought about what manner of person I am around others. And not just those I know, but those that I do not know, but see all the time, or come into contact with in brief moments. The big question came into my mind, "What are you leaving them with?" So today, the question is expanded to everyone. What manner of person are you among the people of this world" What are you leaving them with?   Even in our suffering, trials, tears, and day to day life that seems dull and fruitless, we are leaving something behind. This has nothing to do with an external religious robe to be out on with a Christian badge. It has everything to do with our character. Your character is who you are more than your reputation. Your reputation is only who people think you are.  People expect you to be human, and in your human struggle, your heart is always loving the Lord. And that is what pushes past negative temptations. And that is what they see.  Gideon asked the king and prince of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, "What manner of men were they whom ye slew at Tabor? And they answered, As thou art, so were they; each one resembled the children of a king." Whom do you resemble? What are we leaving people with? Let us leave them with the same profound effect as that king and prince wherever we go. And let their words be the same words of all we come into contact with. For you are all the children of the great King of Kings. Let the world see that you resemble Jesus Christ.

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672 There always seems to come a time when out of the blue something hard hits the lives of people that bring great terror and despair. Something so overwhelming that all of a person's ability to pray has been rendered silent. There may be decades of maturity in prayer, yet there seems to be only silence. Which does not make sense because of all the previous years stacked up with the solid habit and exercise of praying through everything. Those that experience this find that they are at a loss for words. There is in  a sense an empty flatness during the time they feel there should be robust prayers flowing out of rivers of experience. But it is not so. There is only silence. What I have found out in this place, (because it is a real place), is that God has another way. He sees and knows what has happened, and He chooses a different way for that person.   What begins with the attempt to pray and feels like it amounts to nothing, God hears and answers. But we do not realize it at first because all is dark and silent. Then He will send the Spirit of worship into your spirit. He will only want you to sing and praise the great and majestic name of Jesus Christ. He will cause you to sing and praise the "beauties of holiness," and how "His mercies endure forever."   There is something about this charge of God, because as you sing in the Spirit, a great release of power is sent from heaven into the enemies fortress he built around you. And immediately those fortress walls come down hard and fast like Jericho's walls. "Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the Lord with you, O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; to morrow go out against them: for the Lord will be with you. Just Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established...so shall ye prosper."

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672   There seems to come a time that a crisis will come into our lives that will put us in a crossroad of decision. In fact, if you have lived long as a devoted believer in Jesus Christ, many of you would say you have experienced a radical crisis or many. All of which have one causal effect. Which is, "Do I continue on with the Lord?"   One day many of Jesus disciples left Him, and he spoke to His twelve disciples saying, "Will ye also go away?" And that question is a courteous one from the Lord. When a person sets off to follow Jesus, it will get difficult and harder. That is the narrow road conditions.  But before we choose to follow on with the Lord by our heart felt, well thought out consent, a crisis must develop in our lives. He brings us to a place where we must choose that we are either going on with Him or not.   There is a crossroad that you might find yourself standing at, yet the way is already chartered out for you. It is everyone's personal decision to say yes, or no. Also saying no does not always mean a person is departing from the faith, but just withdrawing. Those that say yes are those that have counted the cost and weighed the balance of the answer in their scales. They put their hearts trust in the Lord and settle the matter and choose to go on with Him.   "O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard: Which holdeth our soul in life, and suffereth not our feet to be moved. For thou, O God, hast proved us: thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins. Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place."

Their new life in Christ is energized with learning how to pray and understand the word with sincere hearts of real love to the Lord. But somewhere along the way, they begin to slow down. They begin to lose interest in the secret place of the Most High. They forget God who bought them little by little until that burning flame slowly turns to a smoldering flax.  Today Fred Tomlinson explains what happens to a neglected relationship with Christ. How what seems to be a gradual departure is actually a swift descent into a total collapse of one's own spiritual house. Nevertheless, he reveals a stunningly beautiful way back to Christ into His waiting embrace by those who "cast themselves into the sea," like Peter did. This is a very comforting message to those that have found themselves in a place of spiritual decay and deadness. The departure from Christ might feel like a long road you been traveling on, but the way back is short, instant and sure. "Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory."

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672   The future is something every human being thinks about. Not the kind of future where one makes plans, has deadlines, and appointments. I am talking about the kind of future that no one can plan for. How many have made plans for a something in the future, only to have it all fall apart at the end? How many people have planned for a retirement only to die before they were able to enjoy it? I can go on and on because the planning for anything future is out of our hands when it comes down to it.  Though we read and know by heart that beautiful verse in Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end," the future still brings great fear. After all we are still mortal beings, and we feel everything.   The enemy as well is at work very much in the lives of people. Continuously breathing down the necks of many with suggestions of terrible things that  might happen. And yet there are real fears that people have that are not of the enemy.   Regarding the future, many live their lives wondering about tomorrow, next year, ten years, fifty years with a million mental scenarios and outcomes. They are "driven by the fierce winds" of future terror and they can never find peace from day to day. They live to the end in building up walls for the "what-if's" until they pass away their entire lives away. Never resting their futures into the hands of God Himself.  Corrie Ten Boom said, "Trust your unknown future into the hands of a known God." Amen. Your life is precious to God, and He made promise that He will Author and Finish your life.  In fact Paul says, "Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ."  Much of the way in this life is painful, and it is hard. But as one goes along, they will see that He never leaves them in those hard places for long, and always brings them out. Then they are changed, and become beautiful as they are being prepared for an eternal future, one that has no end. Trust your future in the hands of Him who purchased you. For He will turn for you your mourning into dancing: He will put off your sackcloth, and gird you with gladness; To the end that your glory may sing praise to Him, and not be silent. You will give thanks unto the Lord God forever."

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672  Today I felt the longevity of my journey towards the Heavenly Jerusalem. I meditated on how long it has been, where I have come from, the things I was delivered from and more. My mind's eye panned through the decades of my life and saw fleeting glimpses like driving in car through the land of my past. I felt a sense of my own humanity, and time on earth in my growing years.  I began think of what this path has been. My mind remembered something Hannah Whitall Smith said in her book called, "The Christian's Secret of a Happy Life." She said, "The Highway of Holiness is not a place but a way."   I began to think about children, how Jesus told His Disciples who argued among themselves who would be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Jesus took a little child and said, "Unless you be converted and become like little children you cannot enter the kingdom of heaven."  I thought about how busy we all become in things for the Lord. How in this earth we are fighting one war after another, trying, always trying to keep the engines running. All the while trying to get something from God to go another step, another day, another year. We do not realize that we have been in another way, on another path and there is no peace.  Our exhaustion will bring us to His feet where He has been waiting the whole time. Becoming like little children is what keeps us in the way of His steps. The way of His peace.   If you are experiencing things too hard and heavy for you to carry, it is time to give it all to Him. He said He will take it off your hands. He will guide you in the right way, because He is the Way, the truth and the life....YOUR life. Time to become like a little child today and keep yourself as such. Your life might be hard but He has a way for you to go, and He will carry your burdens, and give you peace that ONLY He can give. "These words are true and faithful."

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672  Prayer is one thing most important to us as believers. In fact we begin our new birth by seeking Jesus Christ in prayer. From then on that new life within gives us a cry in our hearts for God. Even those who do not know Jesus Christ, when in a bad situation will receive the offer of prayer for themselves. However it is evident that after long life in this earth it has wear and tear on the spiritual life. Therefore affecting the ability to really pray.   On the other hand, there are many that have never truly engaged God in prayer because they find Him impersonal. They feel that they are not worthy to ask God anything.  They believe the lies that the enemy tells them, that discourage them from leaning into the soft heart of God their Father. Many others approach God in a mechanical religious way. They stick within the guard rails of supposed offenses to Him. There are many other reasons why people have never met Christ in prayer.   In the Word we read where God asks Moses to ask of Him from one end of heaven to the other of His great power, might and wonders. He asks Solomon to ask of Him what He wanted as the newly enthroned king over Israel. We see God asking Jeremiah to ask Him where the ancient good path is to find rest for the souls of God's people. Finally, Jesus tells all people to ask, seek and knock, giving us the details of how God will answer. I fully believe the greatest blockage to prayer is fear.   People are afraid to ask God anything. But when they do, they see only a one dimensional paper cut out god that is indifferent, distant and away on other business more important.  Before they even begin to pray, the unpray their prayer. We are told that the greatest commandment is to love the Lord with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength. THAT in essence is HOW should pray to Him. And when you do, leave the consequences up to Him.   He will answer in His own style, and in ways better than you could have thought. That is His way. God does not invite people to pray, to arise up and knock at His door, only to find Him never opening it, or slamming it in their faces. There is no "Be Back Later Sign." Ask Him from the purest place from the depths of your heart. Because that is where the real prayer is found, and from there is where the prayer is engaged. Communion with Christ takes place and where the answer will come. He will answer you. He will answer you because He said He would. You can rely on it.

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92672   There is no doubt that we are the last generation of the Church Age.  And the closer we get to the end, the more we see exploding out of the woodwork, every kind of personal interpretation of the book of Revelation. Not to mention all the other books of prophecy that go together with it. Long ago it was only a very few scattered individuals that isolated some word from the book of Revelation and created a lying doctrine. But now there are thousands of people who are claiming to have been given esoteric insight.  Then they go out and lead people astray.    They have dreams and visions they share on endless YouTube videos how the Lord showed them how this or that will happen. Though others who are proficient in solid eschatology, and show them what they are teaching is not in the Bible, they become irate and offended. Even when it is shown to them by the living word that what they are teaching is in gross error, they become even more enraged. They say things like, "I do not care if it is not written in the Bible, I know what I saw and heard, and I know the voice of the Lord."  The Book of Revelation is the Letter of Jesus Christ. It is meant to read and understood by the readers.  Most especially those who are alive at this time. Because there has never been this much light on prophecy like never before and Satan knows it. In the very last chapter of Revelation, Jesus ushers two grave warnings accompanied with great eternal loss about those who would take away, or add to the prophecy of "this book."  "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book."   This very serious double warning is irrevocable and eternally horrifying. Be careful especially at this time who you are listening to and what you are believing is true. Because what you choose to believe is a lie will be the biggest monumental loss of time that will affect things in eternity "that God has prepared for them that love Him," and that keep His word and protect the purity of it.

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92674  There is one thing that is for certain. Once you have seen something you cannot unsee it. You can hear something, but when it is combined with actually seeing it, you now become an eyewitness for the rest of your life. It is the same thing with Jesus Christ. The body of Christ is at an epic height of all knowledge and comprehension of the Bible. Many believers have the search engines at their finger tips to read what scriptures mean from every kind of theologian. They have shelves full of expository books, and analytical concordances. Yet, they have never seen the Lord by the Spirit of Revelation.   There is a big mistake in confusing intellectual ascent with seeing the Lord. This is a microwave spiritual society that wants the keys to the Kingdom, but have no sight of the Owner of it. They want everything given to them, they want all that God can give to them. Even in the sincerity of their hearts, they can go years, even decades never seeing the Lord. Oh sure they might get little Holy Spirit "peeks over the fence," of insight of Him in many ways, like different facets of a gemstone. But never have their eyes open by the Holy Spirit to see Jesus. I do not mean that in terms of materializing. But by and in the Spirit.   There is a verse in 2 Timothy 3:7, "“Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.” I believe that many are never able because the "ever learning," is a blind groping around experience. Blind people can feel their way around, and know where they are, but if possible they are given sight, they then enter into a new and different world. It is the same thing with believers. They exist in a never ending march of gaining knowledge, but if they begin to start asking the Lord to give them sight, He will reveal themselves to Him.   It is His will to open up their eyes, and He will do it.  Then they will see Him, and see another world. A world that they will never leave to return to the darkness of the world they groped about in before. Jesus commission was, and is very clear. "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, And to preach the acceptable year of the Lord."  Ask the Lord Himself to give you sight, an eyesight that sees HIM, and the way of life you lived before, you will never return to again. You will go forth in power and never look back. Remember your eyes can take in a whole lot more than ears can hear. Amen. Three of the greatest words Jesus spoke were, "Come and see!"

Box 1386 - 205 Avenida Del Mar - San Clemente, Ca. 92674  The end of a race is typically the hardest and most excruciating part. That is when the real understanding of what endurance means. This present body of Christ is now entering into the endurance segment of the "race marked out for us." If you have spent any time at all in the word of God, you will see that there is a beginning and an end. We are at the end. As a Christian body in the U.S. we have put our hope and trust in worldly institutions and governments, even religious bodies, and leaders. Even in people around us more than in the arm of the Lord.   We are fast tracking into a time swiftly coming that will try each one of God's people to see who their trust has been in all along. Yes they can confess right now that they trust the Lord completely while there is freedom to come and go as believers. However, those freedoms are going to be taken away, and hatred for Christianity will take its place. The soft and easy places will no longer be existent, at least not for the true believer. The one who has been long enduring with the Lord.    I think that the whole principle of enduring has been unbalanced in my opinion. Because the common thought is that the believer has to do more, be more, show for more. But they do it in a carnal perspective with a spiritual twist. They think that enduring is something they do like exercising for a marathon. THEN they win the prize.   No it is not that at all. You see it is what endures forever in Jesus Christ. In His name, goodness, righteousness, mercy, throne and all that He has done on the cross, is what endureth continually and forever. It is going to take great endurance in these final days, and what is coming will demand great strength of faith in God's word implanted in the hearts of those who endure. Which is where He is loved. Seeing that we are to "inherit a Kingdom that endureth forever" very soon, let us run our race with patience, enduring our cross, for He who promised is faithful because He endures forever.

He starts with the twelve men chosen to go and spy out the land to bring back a report, among whom were Joshua and Caleb. Instead of one report there were two. Ten of the men brought back an bad report of distress, fear and hopelessness. They declared emphatically that they "were not able." It caused all the people to become upset. While Joshua and Caleb strongly stated another report saying, "We are well able."  The story culminates into decades of warring, fighting and taking the land. Until a day of appointment came for Caleb in his old age. Fred brings to glowing light, the beautiful heart of Caleb.  Adding deeper-than-the-surface, thoughts that make us to see something deeper. That Caleb knew he had a destiny from when he stood on the shores of the brook Eschol. Thirty eight years later, it came into Caleb's heart that it was time to take part in a portion of that promised land. He powerfully stated that he wholly followed the Lord His God, and remembered the words spoken to them by Moses. He asked for the mountain that his heart desired, and it was granted unto him.   Perhaps this word will cause you to see that though the way has been long, and you have been tempted to fall down. Though your environment may war against you, and opposition is fierce, as long as your heart has kept His word of promise, the mountain will be yours after all. You have a destiny in your journey and a purpose in God. I was immensely blessed personally by this message still resonating in my heart. It will resonate in yours as well. Shalom.

Box 1386 205 Avenida Del Mar San Clemente, Ca. 92674   For a while now the talk of "getting ready" is the ticket of conversation among Christian circles. Yet what I have been personally experiencing is well intentioned, sincere Christians falling down under the weight of "getting ready." They set out on a some kind of new course to spiritually prepare themselves right away because of the knowledge of the imminent return of Jesus Christ.   Now let me pause for a moment to say there is an expectation I believe that the Lord has that we all stop and become spiritually sober.  Where we honestly take a good look at our lives as we walk along the narrow road. Taking the proper thorough steps of "examining ourselves to see if we be in the faith."   But the reality is God does not expect us to stay in that same place of constant check listing faults and minute failures. This is what is causing many Believers to fall down under self imposed burdens they have heaped upon themselves that God never intended for them. The end result is they lose joy, the happy confidence in Jesus Christ, and condemn themselves as unworthy, and say things like, "Well, I hope when Christ comes again He will let me go with Him."   In the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus fell down and began to be full of heaviness and unbearable sorrow. He prayed to the Father "with loud cries and tears unto Him that was able to save Him from death." It says His disciples "slept for sorrow." I believe they were so overwhelmed and grieved they just slept. But Jesus said to them in Marks gospel, "Watch and pray that ye enter not into temptation. For the Spirit is truly ready, but the flesh is weak."   Matthew records the same thing but a bit differently, "Watch and pray that ye enter not into temptation. For the Spirit is indeed willing but the flesh is weak." You may be in a turmoil right now and in a hard place, but "the Spirit is truly ready," and He is" indeed willing" even now. Right this very minute!  You see, truly ready people are always ready. They may check list some things in their lives to clear themselves with the Lord from time to time, but they always live in a constant readiness along with the truly ready Holy Spirit. What is too heavy for you, let the Holy Spirit's strength, power and comfort perform what you find you are too weak to do. Let go of what you cannot do or change. Lean on the everlasting arms. He will make you ready in ways that are no burden or heaviness at all. Trust the always ready and willing Lord who smooths the road before you and clears your skies.

Box 1386 205 Avenida Del Mar San Clemente, Ca. 92674 Every year there is a build up to what is called the "Holy Week." It begins with Palm Sunday and then Good Friday, ending with Easter Sunday. It is the one week out of the whole month that Christians give any thought about Jesus more than at other time. However, the sad truth is it is grossly religiously marketed. Vacations and parties are planned. When Sunday comes around multitudes stampede into churches, then off to other activities, games and parties. When the following Monday comes, all is forgotten until next year.  I quote Charles H. Spurgeon: "There is no ordinance in Scripture of any one Lord’s day in the year being set apart to commemorate the rising of Christ from the dead, for this reason, that every Lord’s-day is the memorial of our Lord’s resurrection. Wake up any Lord’s-day you please, whether in the depth of winter, or in the warmth of summer, and you may sing, “To day he rose and left the dead, And Satan’s empire fell; To day the saints his triumph spread, And all his wonders tell. When he arose ascending high, He showed our feet the way; Up to the Lord our flesh shall fly At the great rising day.” To set apart an Easter Sunday for special memory of the resurrection is a human device, for which there is no Scriptural command, but to make every Lord’s day an Easter Sunday is due to him who rose early on the first day of the week."   The way to heaven is not just a destination it is a way. And in this way is the power of Jesus resurrection into heaven, where we are seated in heavenly places with Him. Our lives are not just about looking at death, but of life. Life now in Christ, and everlasting life that will never end. For we are risen with Christ, rather let us sing unto the Lord a new song, and praise him with our whole soul all the days of our lives.

Box 1386  205 Avenida Del Mar  San Clemente, Ca. 92674   Sooner or later those who are the true Believers in Jesus Christ will have to get into the ring with Satan. It is unavoidable. However there are many Christians that say they do not like to "focus" on the enemy. They say things like "I don't like talking about him because it glorifies him." They seem to go on like religious herds of cattle. The enemy does not waste his malevolent demonic hordes on them. They are not threat to him at all.  But those that are determined to live for Jesus Christ are those that will be attacked and challenged by the enemy. There is a path that leads through lion country, and that is the narrow path. These sanctified saints refuse any other path. The other broad path is for those spiritually asleep, the sluggardly, slothful so-called Christian. Multitudes of Christians never get into lion country at all.  But when you do, you will feel raw contact with hell. But like David who tore the lamb out of the mouth of the lion did so with the raw power of the Holy Spirit. That same Holy Spirit that came upon David lives in you. As an one mighty saint put it, "I would no be so much the enemy of Satan if I were not so much the friend of God." Amen.

Seeking the Lord and yearning for Him, is a good sign of spiritual life and growth. But there is something else that has been happening to the great flocks of God. What began as enjoyable time with the Lord has turned into a religious overdrive that is spiritually killing people. These self imposed demands to keep up with the fellow "spiritual Jones's" has captured people.  The doctrinal straining at a gnat while swallowing the camel of departure from the Lord is the common race. Oh yes, people can give a knee-jerk, expert reaction-answer to a spiritual inquiry, yet they are dead within. At one time they followed the Chief Shepherd and Bishop of their souls, but now they expect Him to follow them. He is expected to perform for them and to empower them in spiritual swordsmanship. All the while they are still going further and further away in the Ship of Knowledge out to the Sea of Nowhere to Cast Away Island.    Right now the people of God are fallen down from high spiritual performance. They are exhausted from having so many religious "how-to's being place upon them like great burdens they cannot keep up with. They are being religiously overfed and overdriven to the point of death. I would go as far as saying, that the masses are mostly doing this to themselves. They think this is what it means to be "good" Christian. That this how Jesus accepts them. They are exhausted because they have not allowed the Master Shepherd to lead them because really, they do not know how to follow Him. Fear and trust issues that have stunted their growth. Joy, peace and freedom's air of heaven has been choked out of them. The Lord Jesus Christ is not called that "Great Shepherd of the sheep" for some story book reason, but to see Him in His great caring love for each one He died and now ever lives for.

They spend faithful, quality time with Him, in His word and in heart seeking prayer continually, rain or shine. They know they are talking to a very real Person who is alive in heaven. They call His name when they are in trouble, when they need comfort, or help.   They worship His wonderful name, they speak about Him mentioning His name with fervent joy. They pray over one another in Jesus wonderful name with full expectation of His great goodness. They know and understand that His name is above all names, and that all power has been given unto Him in heaven and in earth for everyone's good. They are refreshed by His name because the reality is that Jesus is not separate from His name, but accompanies His name. Therefore His name is wonderful to them. There are other Christ-professing Believers who take His name for granted. They are not offended when they hear the name of Jesus Christ used as a curse word. It does not even phase them. They do not think twice or flinch when watching a movie where Jesus name is profaned a hundred times in the most vulgar ways. They are not affected at all by it. Yes I know we are in the earth and there are time we cannot help but be in circumstances or situations where the name of Jesus Christ is blasphemed. That is not what I am getting at here. These are Believers who by the onslaught of spiritual and physical powers countermand the adversary in powerful prayers in the name of Jesus Christ. They know great pressure means greater power because it pushes them into Christ to ask for more boldness and advantage in His name.  They "remember His marvelous works that He hath done; His wonders and the judgements of His mouth." They see everything through the eyes of Jesus Christ, and their hearts melt at the mention of His name. Contact: Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com Website: www.joaniestahl.com

The topic of discussion these days with most all believers is on end time topics. There is a growing fervor coupled with great expectancy of the coming of the Lord. Along with these conversations is preparing for Him. There is no shortage on the "how-to's" of preparing, yet it seems that there is no real grasp on how. People can get easily pumped up after one sermon, or endless YouTube videos, but sooner than later they are back to wondering how.  I believe that it is about understanding purpose. I think more people suffer not knowing what their purpose is, and what God's purpose is. They seem to be at odds with each other. The problem lies with seeing God's purpose through their eyes darkly. Rather than seeing their purpose through God's eyes. The preparation is in seeing everything in life that a person does in their lives as doing it unto the Lord. This is the way Jesus did it. He was goal oriented, and so were His disciples. Their goals were according to what was in their hands, what was in their hearts, their minds and in their spirit. When you begin to understand that it is not in what you are NOT doing, but in everything you do.  Take your eyes off of what you are not doing, which is not advisable. It is what you are doing in the moment with your mind and will intentioned towards the Lord. Only then will the living waters flow through that life who sees everything as an opportunity. A full surrendered life will see that even the mundane becomes the king's portion. This is the life of saint bent on serving Christ with their lives in full purpose until their lives are ready for entrance into heaven. "So shall they ever be with the Lord."

However, I am going to zero in on one particular assault. Just as the Lord uses His precious people as vessels to pour out His gospel, and goodwill towards humanity. The enemy has his human agents he fills with contempt and evil against innocent people. There is one honed instrument of Satan that is very powerful and very malicious.  Just as attorneys and people who study and practice the law for profession, Satan has his people who study and practice it to twist it for evil. They learn it as well as the best professionals of the law, only to adulterate it to kill, steal and destroy innocent people. They do it in a way so diabolical that they leave no room for the righteous to fight fairly in the very laws that are condemning them.    I have seen this many times in my life and it is terrifyingly powerful. I have seen the enemy give these wicked people "his seat, kingdom and power" to overthrow and destroy the lives of beautiful innocent people. To overthrow their faith and leave them without hope. As King Solomon said, "I have seen a grievous thing in the earth," is what I say when I see this "violent perverting of justice."  Perhaps this speaks to you, and that you are the one who is facing a great, grievous injustice meant to strip you of everything you own. To destroy your income, home and very life because of a wicked person.  It could be an evil earthly entity that has diabolically corrupted the law to their advantage, but to your assured destruction. Perchance you are standing alone with no legal power on your side. If that is you, let me be clear by saying that there a unmatchable power on your side.  Jesus Christ the "Judge of Judges." The word was written so that you would KNOW that the Lord holds all over-arching all-powerful laws no one can challenge in heaven or earth. Do what Daniel did in prayer, openly and with everything in you, and no matter how it bad it looks, trust in the Supreme Judge Jesus Christ to give you ultimate victory. He always keeps His word and will do it. "Glory, Glory dwelleth in Immanuel’s Land”  Contact:  Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com  Website: www.joaniestahl.com

The subject of the Face of God is pretty short. Meaning, whenever the topic or thought comes up, it is quickly met with a short reply that leaves a blank. There are 71 references to the face of God in the word. I think God wants us to know He has a face and that it is a real face, as real as yours and mine. Yet, there is so much more meaning what the Face of God entails.  Everyone has a one of a kind unique face. It is their identity now and forever. It also reveals their external expressions of what is going on within them. God makes it clear how He sees the expressions of mankind, and how He feels about them. Consider the faces of those we love are what bring us comforting joy when we see them.  There are those whom we have deeply loved who have passed away, and we keep the memory of their faces alive in our constant memory and photos in picture frames.  We anticipate the day that we will see their faces again in the light of a thousand suns. There are no earthly words that could describe the eternal future. The powerful seeing them again "face to face". And yet, there is another face that we will see "face to face" and "know all things as we are fully known." In Revelation 22:6 it says, "and they shall see His face...." As if to say it in a way as that being the ultimate, supreme joy and reward. He will also look upon each one of us with expressions of purest love unspeakable, and of being proud of us while He places crowns upon our heads. David tells us that the Lord told him to seek His face, and his reply was, "my heart said unto thee, thy face Lord will I seek."  The seeking of God's face is not just about seeing His holy, beautiful countenance, it is about knowing Him in the most intimate way.

The pathway of true born again believers is one of growth and maturity. Nothing can be had all at once of course. The first thing every new believer starts out with is the knowledge that the Holy Spirit comes and lives within them. The sad part is, that's where it ends for the rest of the lives of Christian multitudes. As time progresses frequent Bible studies, and every-now-and-then sermons discuss Him. Still, the multitudes go no further then frustrated, empty, religious lives.   They pray, read their Bibles, attend studies, go to Church and exert all kinds of spiritual exercises. All the while the Holy Spirit is largely ignored. Many say they never have heard Him speak to their hearts. They say they do not ever feel His leading, or sense His witness, power or movement. What has taken His place is all kinds of activities that "make up for it." But emptiness and unfruitful, deadness prevail.  Many years ago a very dear old friend named David Neale, a wonderful intercessor shared something very beautiful to me. On one of my visits with him he told me that the Holy Spirit had spoken to him. I asked him what He said. He replied, "As I was sitting in my room, I heard Him say to me, 'I see through your eyes." He wept when he told me that and I will never forget it.  I remembered those words lately and they grabbed me once again. We need the Holy Spirit, and must remember that He is given to us to protect us, teach us, lift us up, warn us, convict us. And not only that but to give us joy and comfort, and to mature us. The Three in One and One in Three is Him. His life makes our lives fruitful and to abound in everything that Christ is. And finally to prepare us to enter into glory as His finished work presented to Christ. Put away the religious noise and acrobats out of your lives, and be quiet before Him. Make room for Him in prayer. Just be still....let Him move. Contact: Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com Website: www.joaniestahl.com

They go to church, sing the songs, listen to a message and then go home. There is never any depths to their knowing the Lord Jesus Christ as a very real person. There are no rivers of life.  They sanction themselves out of those paths that lead to richer, more fertile pastures prepared for them that Jesus is calling them to. Like the Israelites, They "wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in. Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them."   Today Fred takes us through a time in ancient past about a man who was blind. Whom Jesus took by the hand, and led him out of Bethsaida, a town that was cursed, and healed him in a strange and fascinating way. After Jesus touched his eyes, he first saw men like trees walking. Then Jesus touched him the second time and he saw with crystal clarity. He saw the God that healed Him, and he was never the same again.  If you are one of those who are feeling that there is more. That you are living in self-sanctioned shadows of a religious Bethsaida. Then  today Jesus is calling you out and into His marvelous light. But you have to leave Bethsaida and let the Lord Jesus touch your eyes again. Once you do, you will never return to the shadow lands He drew you out of forever. You will set your face toward Immanuel's Land where there are no shadows at all.   Contact:  Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com  Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Whenever Proverbs 31 is read, it is understood to be a prophecy in reference to the New Testament church of today. Perhaps it is. We understand that King Solomon wrote it, but it was a word spoken to him by his mother Bathsheba. The greater attention to this Proverb is largely relegated to women. How they can become better wives, mothers, and workers in the body of Christ. I have wrestled with this all my life. I do not want to be stuffed into a corner with the understanding it is just for women's groups. It never rested well with me. There is something more costly, more beautiful, and rich than just earthly born again women learning to be virtuous. After all Bathsheba was telling her son, the would-be king what to do and how to do it right. She was not talking to women. I cannot reckon this chapter to be the center point of a "women only" concept and perception. Bathsheba knew what destroyed kings, and giving over their ways and strength to things and people that would bring them down to the ground. She was the wife of King David after all. Her own beginnings with that King was the beginning of her instruction of wisdom that she passed onto Solomon. She taught him something his father David could not teach him. The modern day thought of well meaning people claim that there is no one that can keep these ways Bathsheba, by the Holy Spirit spoke of. I beg to differ. If the Holy Spirit gave these ways to keep, then they are keepable. But they are only keepable to those who choose to keep them. And not in a religious mechanical act, but from a yearning heart to obey. In fact, all of these things that the Holy Spirit said to do were not suggestions, nor were they recommendations. They were commanded, and not to everyone, but to her son who would be a great king. A person truly born of the Holy Spirit has all within themselves to do it, being empowered by Him to perform it. A day will come when we will reign with Christ on earth in the Millennial Reign as "kings and priests." This is a prophecy that will come to pass. During your life, do not give yourself and your strength to ways and things that destroy kings. But give yourself and ways to Jesus Christ who is your everlasting "King of Kings and Lord of Lords," and this will be be your success now in this life. And in the world to come....everlasting life.

They were to place them in the middle of Jordan when they passed through, "where they are to this day." After they crossed over they built a monument to God with twelve stones. These stood as hard lines they crossed over forever. God did not want them going back. Those twelve stones were to also inspire the next generation following. Those same stones stand as memorial for all time, and they have the same direct meaning for us. We need to have markers that remind us of what God is doing in our lives and how God is leading us to cross a particular line and never go back. He is leading us and does not want us to go backward, but forward in the power of the Holy Spirit. There must be clear evidence in your life that you can look back on. There must be stones of memorial along your life's path. Like the day you surrendered your life over to Christ in being born again, or the day you consecrated yourself, or the day you were filled with the Holy Spirit. There are many hard point crossings that must stand out as that memorial of twelve stones in the midst of Jordan, and on the shore, marking where they had crossed over never to go back again. God only moves forward never backwards, like rushing mighty rivers, seasons in their courses. Like day and night that goes ever forward on and on. If you are getting ready to cross over a Jordan in your life, then begin to sanctify yourself before the Lord, and let Him go ahead of you. Keep your eyes on Him, and though perhaps that crossing over might be hard, keep in mind that He will do wonders for you. He will dry up mighty rivers for your sake. The first marker is faith, the next is when you plant your foot in the brim of Jordan, the rest is His. He will carry you over, never to go back again.

I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also."  What comforting words those are, which also bring wonderment and thrill. However, I believe that there are also other prepared paths and places for all of the children of God that He wants to bring them into. The body of Christ at large has been wandering in a present day spiritual wilderness of religion. They go from one watering hole to another, from well to another well. Yet there is no end of the wandering. The Church Age shadows are growing longer now than ever.   Jesus Christ has prepared an eternal place for you and me, yet there are some prepared places He wants you to personally to enter into in this life. They are already prepared but you must surrender everything to Him. The Israelites had no idea where they were going. They needed the Angel of the Lord to go before them, to keep them in the way to bring them into the place God had prepared for them to go to.   There were conditions through. " Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him. But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries." The cost now is too high. The body of Christ has mingled with the inhabitants of the land and have lost their way. The vast majority of ministers, pastors and bible study leaders are not prepared, hence they are not preparing their people. However, if you are feeling that there is more. That there is a strong and powerful stirring in your heart that is causing restlessness, I tell you it is the Lord. Jesus is calling you. He is calling you to fully surrender your life to Him, and He will prepare all paths for your feet. But you have to leave and forsake the desert and go to Him now in this life. Then ultimately He will take you to the "place He has prepared for you" in eternity. Lay your life down in exchange for His. You will enter into a new prepared places that will change your life forever...."world without end." Contact: Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Their information and multi-syllabled words give an air of spiritual attainment of power, knowledge and understanding into the word of God. These scholars become god-like in knowledge to many. Therefore their learned pedigrees dominate the simple who are searching, growing and learning. There are other believers who love the purity and simplicity of the word. They take it in its fullest, literal meaning, staking their whole hearts and eternal lives on it. They are not interested in the lettered men, but in the Lord, in powerful, steadfast faith. "Once He hath spoken shall He not do it?" is the stamp upon their hearts. Over the vast millennia there were no scholars and doctors of theology. People did not own Bibles, they owned their unshakeable faith to their deaths. They might have had a couple of missionaries who showed up on foot to their little villages to proclaim the gospel of salvation. These missionaries would remain there for a while until they knew the people understood the gospel and felt confident in their new found faith in Christ. Then they left to other parts of the countries spreading God's great light. Time progressed into people being allowed to own Bibles which were a household treasure, and thousands lost their lives for it under the brutal Inquisition. Time marched on again until this present time where now there are hundreds of versions of the Bible in the English language alone. Modern textual critics argue that the word is fallible, not inspired and preserved by the miraculous hand of God.  Instead they continue to look for any hidden divine evidences in the already printed word of God. They "stumble on the stumbling stone." As I write this, there are over four million people without power in seventeen states that are in record breaking, historic sub zero weather. The elderly having no power for their oxygen machines. People are dying being frozen to death. I heard that a whole family of four died last night. They were found in their car all passed away from carbon monoxide poisoning trying to keep warm. People starving and livestock are perishing and more. I thought of these people all night and in the morning I thought about the chapter in James about "faith by works." "For He shall do exceedingly, abundantly, beyond all that you can ask or think according the power that worketh within you." What power? The power of believing by faith in the vehicle of prayer to the Faithful God Jesus Christ. Really, when it all boils down to it, none of that higher learning and doctorly wisdom helps anyone, not even them. Jesus Christ is the helper, the Savior, the Deliverer. "He is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him" by raw, simple faith. None of these people right now are thinking about any theological debates and sciences. Instead, I would picture certain of them who own whole libraries of these books using them for kindling to keep their families warm and alive.  In the end, they have no better purpose. Remember that the One who inspired the Bible is the One who preserves it and you for His namesake. He is the preserver of life. He will answer us in prayer, for "He has never forsaken them that seek Him." Amen. Contact: Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Even unsaved people know all about it. It has now in a way become a bygone lesson in the religious world that seems all meaning has been strained out of it. Yet, that moment when Satan came to Jesus in the wilderness was more than just a long ago, historical account. There is much more to it than that. Jesus stood that test not as some might think. A man weakened from starvation who was bedraggled and limping along, barely able to resist Satan's power. Jesus withstood Satan's three temptations face to face, and from those three responses to him, came forth the Lord's Prayer later on. Jesus did this for every born again believer in the ages to come who will have the same experience as Him. Those three temptations might not seem powerful to the reader in modern day Christianity, as they see it only as an account in long ago antiquity. Nevertheless, those same three temptations are the same ones Satan tempts believers all over the world with.  If Satan cannot tempt people to misuse power for self gain, then he will move them onto the holy city of religion, and set them up on a pinnacle of pride. He will choose out certain people that he has studied for this very special temptation. He will speak to them in God's own words, but add his own seemingly, undetectable words which turn the truth of God into a lie. He will then use them to preach another gospel. After which comes a sure spiritual death to themselves and their listeners. There are others he sees that have great spiritual ambition and lust for great things in ministry. He offers world wide prominence and power, but there is a price.  The end result is the one who gave these counterfeit gifts of power will come back around for payment in the form of  sacrifice. The end result is costly. There are those who do not want the kingdoms of this world or glory from mankind. They are those who love not their lives in this world to the death, because they love the ever lasting life of Jesus more. They cannot be tempted with temporal things. They want the eternal things, the treasures in heaven, the rewards of the endless life. Make sure who you are listening to, what doctrines you are accepting as truth. Keep in the word always which is your source of all truth that will make straight paths for your feet that lead to home in heaven.

Great institutions of learning have produced great men and women of God through the centuries. There have been others who have sought for deeper esoteric insights through external disciplines. Yet the more they tried to know God, the further they went away from Him in heart.   We are grateful to God for many of these deeper insights that we could never know for ourselves as we set out to "understand and know" God. I can honestly say for myself that I enjoyed deeper studies. I attained and acquired good, rich depths of understanding from theologians and other disciplines. I do not regret any of it. But after a long time, I missed God. I missed the simple dwelling in Him, in His word like a field of flowers and rich pasturelands.  There is a dark side to it though. I have seen people become so full of intellectual knowledge, sciences, disciplines, languages and doctrines, that there is only a cold dead heart in them. There is no heat or light in them. They fight among themselves, trying to prove their doctrines. They "bite and devour one another." Ego and great pride become master. There is no life-giving flow, no evidence of the pure, rich, love and life of Jesus Christ. "The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart: his words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords."  I say this to make a point. All that collective knowledge is fine, but it does not make anyone closer to Christ at all. I think that those that are so full of His love and His Spirit are those whom the world looks at as uneducated and foolish. I think the higher learning becomes nothing at the end of a persons life but something more like an old storage shed filled with years of dusty clutter. I have heard of old scholars on their death beds who want nothing else than the presence of God embodied in eternal love. Like C.S. Lewis said on his death bed to one of his dearest friends, that his mind was tired and only wanted to talk and hear about Jesus. During life when there there is a crisis how does higher learning help? How does any of that higher intellectual knowledge help the poor and needy? I think so much is lost in millions of lives of sincere believers because they deem themselves unqualified and unworthy to do anything. They live their entire lives in the shadows of the discounted masses.  What everyone needs to know right now, and the sooner the better, is that God KNOWS YOU. He has been with you all along. The reality of His living in you, surrounding you, and never ever leaving you should be the solid, beautiful rest to enter into. Time to let out a deep breathe. You do not have to earn it or be qualified for it. He is already with you simply because He loves you unfathomably and unsearchably. It is a simple beautiful truth you can rest your head upon like the pillow Jesus did on that stormy night. "Acquaint yourselves now with Him and be at peace."

When we think about betrayal the first person that comes to mind is Judas Iscariot who sold Jesus out for money, and finally with a treacherous kiss. However, the first ultimate betrayer is Satan who betrayed God Himself. Betrayal is spoken as one of the most grievous sins in the final days. "Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death." There is a kind of betrayal Jesus speaks about which vivifies the total corruption and break down of last days humanity. It is not your garden variety betrayal, it is a deadly one. Betrayal is one of the key instruments of the weaponry of Satan. It is one of Satan's most destructive devices that do more than just hurt other people. It has revenge at it's razor's edge and strikes a deadly blow to it's recipients. Typically the betrayal comes from those closest to people, which makes it all the more devastating and shocking. Jesus knew that striking pain, because it was not just that Judas betrayed Him. He already knew from the beginning that he would.  In a sense, it was the whole humanity that He created that betrayed Him in the end.   Just 24 hours before they were hailing Him, "Jesus Son of David, blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord!" Only to hear those same voices the next day screaming "Crucify Him!" Satan put it in the heart of Judas to betray Him, then later on Satan entered into him to empower that egregious act of betrayal. Jesus told Pontius Pilate regarding Judas that "it were better for that man that he had not been born." Never did the Lord say that about any other sin. If you have been betrayed, then take heart. Your life will recover from it. As long as you keep your eyes on Jesus Christ, He will keep you from going into deep into despair and long protracted sorrow. The pathway to healing from betrayal is the narrow path, in forgiving, and cleaving to Jesus. He will heal your life and you will shine once again in a brighter way in the kingdom of our Father and His Son. He will see to that. Contact: Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com Website: joaniestahl.com

They may love to hear well rounded messages, read inspired writings. They may love to fellowship and "go with the multitude to the house of God with them that keep holy day." Yet there is something deeper, something more, that no human can give them.  The word "longing" in Greek means, to "wish, yearn, crave and desire." In Hebrew it means "roving, running, eager and thirsty." All of which describes the longing soul of a Crucified life in Christ while alive in this world. There is something that is never satisfied with the latest sermon, or theological exposition.  There is something greater still, and it continues to deepen and deepen all throughout their whole lives. C.S. Lewis said, "If we discover a desire within us that nothing in this world can satisfy, also we should begin to wonder if perhaps we were created for another world."  In this very deep longing for Jesus Christ, they find themselves walking alone on the narrow path because it becomes that. It is hard, painful and intense, and yet on the other hand it is full of the life, joy and love of the Holy Spirit  that intensifies. It is "the path of the just that that shineth more and more unto the perfect day" of eternity. Henry Drummond said it so beautifully, "It ought to be placed in the forefront of all Christian teaching that Christ's mission on earth was to give men Life. "I am come," He said, "that ye might have Life, and that ye might have it more abundantly." And that He meant literal Life, literal spiritual and Eternal Life, is clear from the whole course of His teaching and acting."   Contact:  Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com  Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Both will flourish. There will be great light and great darkness. Get used to the antithesis. The darkness will get darker and deeper, but the light will get brighter and brighter. There is no doubt whatsoever that we are standing on the precipice of the end of the age.   Yet vast multitudes of Christendom have little to no idea of the time they are alive in. Neither do they care to know it. There are even more that have a skewered view of what the end looks like. They have their own doctrines that empower their beliefs that things will grow better and better. The truth is that it is getting worse and worse.    We are literally living in the days written by the prophets of old, and even the things told to us by Jesus Himself that are now coming to pass. The birth pangs are upon us, and these pains of birth are to get worse with intensity to birth about the Kingdom of Jesus Christ upon earth. The pain that the whole earth is experiencing will only increase exponentially. The contractions of this world will become very painful, very terrifying and sorrowful. In the book of Luke he writes, "And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken."    The following verses read, "And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh."  So you see we are at this point that nation is rising against nation, and kingdoms against kingdoms. Great famines are now upon us, and coming upon our nation like we have never seen before  with certainty. The whole earth is reeling back and forth from a world wide deadly pestilence that no scientist can discover a cure for. Earthquakes are everywhere now, and happening in places that have never before experienced.   Time to start looking up, and looking for the "promise of new heavens and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness."  What the world is afraid of, you do not need to be because if you are truly a follower of Jesus Christ, then that light of heaven should be reflecting brighter and brighter. You should be experiencing yourself getting stronger and stronger, and your praising Jesus Christ should be more and more robust and sound. We are soon to enter into eternity, and Jesus Christ is going to set up His Kingdom of Righteousness upon earth. Look for that beautiful heaven land in your heart and look away from this world slated for judgement. Rest in Christ and in His perfect, spotless, loving care for you. The Lord Jesus Christ Himself give you that perfect peace that only He can give, and be lifted up for your redemption is nearer than when you first believed.  "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen." Contact:  Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com  Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Today, another president sits in office and it is not the one that was prophesied by false prophets that would be re-elected. For the last four years big celebrity, hyper-charismatic celebrity-like men and women told vast multitudes that they had direct words from Jesus Christ. They boasted great boasts and declared great declarations. All of which none of them came to pass. Not even one.   There were other smaller men and women videoing themselves giving out false prophecies from dreams they were having, or words they isolated in the Bible, or said they were hearing in their ear. Again, all of which did not come to pass but failed completely. I do not say this to be divisive, but to make a strong and solid point of why we are always exhorted and admonished to cleave to the solid rock, who is Jesus Christ.  I do believe on a side note that there are many faithful, beautiful men and women of all ages who do dream, get a word of knowledge, or word of wisdom that is real, and do come to pass. I have lived long enough to observe and experience it.   God says of Himself, "For I am the Lord God; I change not, therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed." Today millions have been consumed with every wind of doctrine and every prophecy that amounted to nothing. Yet still they will not lovingly and quietly read His word, and mediate on the purity of the word of God. God is allowing everything to happen for a good reason and we have to trust Him.   He changes not, and if you cleave to Him, then everything around you that is changing will not move you, nor consume you. Time to turn off the voices of these false prophets that are now made manifest who they are. And cleave to the unchangeable God Jesus Christ. "A thousand will fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand but it will not come near you."  Keep in the paths of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgement. It is the ONLY sure path that leads to your eternal home.  Contact:  Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com  Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl The subject of prayer is a vast one. There are many that are able to express themselves in prayer beautifully. While others feel uncomfortable with the whole thing, and would rather just have others keep them in prayer. But there is another group that I believe are the greater percentage of Believers. They make up the enormity of many who feel like they sound flat when they pray, or they feel like everything they say is dumb. They are totally self focused about every word they say and how they say it, until they have done everything but pray. Therefore with their prayers they unpray their prayers. There are others that feel that they can never pray for themselves, and keep themselves out of the beautiful, personal relationship born out of prayer with Christ. There are others who spend money on books that teach them how to pray. What to say in prayer, what not to say in prayer. They buy books on already written out prayers that end up as dusty forgotten, unused books on their shelves. One of the key ingredients to prayer that has been the pitfall of natural flowing prayer is the absence of the assurance of the presence of the Lord.  It is easy to look back at their past and see Christ in every step of their way. They remember how the Lord delivered them out of trials. They remember every moment He comforted them. Therefore they see a "past Christ." They can also look into a future and believe that Christ will see them through the next year. They can see that Christ will walk them through this and through that. They believe in a "future Christ." But there is a stark absence of that reality in the "here and now Christ" in every breathing minute. His presence is what causes the feet of the Believers to slip, and some to fall, while others deem themselves "unheard" of by God because they say they cannot determine His presence, so therefore they go away sad. This must not be the case. Prayer is between the person and God. There must not be any middle-men, or applications of theologians even if they are the mighty men and women of old. It will never work.  Not until that Believer comes to Christ boldly, and that boldness only comes with the confident knowing that Jesus is in every present moment in life. Not a God that has to be coaxed out of heaven, and begged for His listening ear. In reality, the true prayer of the saints is really only that of the heart, WITH the knowing reality that God is "a very present help in trouble." He is not just present, but VERY present. When you pray, remember first and foremost that the presence of the Lord is as much with you NOW as with Abraham. As much with you NOW as with Moses, or Isaiah, or Paul and the apostles.  When you come to terms with this truth, prayer then takes on a new life, and the beauty of that friendship with God explodes with the power of an endless life.  Contact: Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Yet there has never been the slightest change in them. In fact they become angrier, and more bitter. They have even taken the abuse from the person they have spent years in  prayer for. The human aspect is exhaustion especially where there has been mocking, scorning and abuse. Yet, prayer continues though it be a life of longsuffering. The thought of them dying without Christ is worse than another day, or another 20 years of their abuse. The love of Jesus Christ is the power behind the choice to push through.   There are many times temptation comes in to give up. This is not a demerit mark on some score card God has on everyone. Sometimes God wants us to rest to regain strength, and to pray again. True prayer for the ungodly is long and hard, but is has eternal reward for the person they prayed for, and for themselves when they meet together in heavenly places.   The two malefactors which were on opposite sides of Jesus on His cross, were standing on the edge of eternity. Think about it, the only two human beings in earthly and eternal history who died along side their Savior. Yet only one saw Him as Savior, for he called Him "Lord." His eyes were opened to see Jesus as His Savior, yet the other one did not. One railed on Him saying "Save thyself and us!" The other one said, "We deserve what we are getting," which is true heart contrition and repentance.    That dying man was able to look into the face of his brutalized Savior and say, "Remember me when thou art come into they kingdom," and Jesus said, Today ye shall be with Me in paradise," where he is today with Christ in glory. We cannot tell who will come to Christ at their final breaths of earthly mortal life. Only Jesus knows. Jesus Christ died for both men condemned to die, and only one went into heaven with Him. Both were given the same opportunity, the same as Judas or Ananias and Sapphira, but their choices purchased for them an eternity they will never escape from. A Christ-less eternity.  Do not give up praying for those you love no matter what it looks like. The last act of the Lord on earth before death was forgiveness to filthy criminals legally condemned to die an ignominious, cursed death.  Though it does not say it in the word, I somehow believe that even in Jesus' final moments of earthly life, perhaps He was praying to His Father to open the eyes of the worst, filthy criminals legally condemned to die. Two people whom I am certain had family members who gave up on them long ago.  I believe our Father in heaven answered those prayers. For "no man can say Jesus Christ is Lord but by the Holy Spirit." Never give up. Jesus said He would "see the travail of His soul and be satisfied." Amen, never give up praying for the hardest of them, and let the Savior of the World do the rest, He wants them in heaven more than we do. Shalom.   Contact:  Email:  jsfieldnotes@gmail.com  Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Ms. Esther Walker explains the phrase she uses “Just go quietly on.”   Whether we like it or not times come around where we become overwhelmed. There is a breaking point we all have. There are hard things that challenge us all our lives. If it is not one thing, then it is another in greater or lesser degrees. However, there are times where something comes around that is not expected, and down we go. The strength we thought we had is not available. There is a paralyzing that happens to our whole being. It cripples prayer, and reading the word is impossible. Of course there are varying degrees and extent of the thing that comes around, but the power it has to disable us is the same. It seems that no human can help us, no words of comfort. Like C.S. Lewis said after his wife passed away, "I feel mildly cuncussed and afraid, the flowers that used to be so bright and full of color are dull and everything looks gray, there is no taste to food....her absence is like the sky spread out over everything." David wrote in the Psalms, "When my heart was overwhelmed me, then thou knewst my path." There is a time when our hearts are overwhelmed and we cannot see the way out. But something begins to arise in us like the rising of the sun in our darkness. A power enters in of the life of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and quickens us to get up. To cry aloud to the Lord our Maker, "Hear my cry O God! Answer me in my distress!" And He does answer and sets the overwhelmed in quiet, peaceful habitations in Him. The Lord Jesus Christ is our Friend, and those that serve Him continually do not falter or fall away when evil comes, but they, like Daniel throw their windows open to heaven and look to Jesus Christ. David said, God knew His path to continue on because the pain was so great he could not know it anymore. Year after year, war after war, fight after fight, as saints grow old, the way Jesus knew that they should go upon, is the one they finally stay upon. They put their hands in His and trust Him, and receive a spiritual peace while the world rages around them. They learn to go quietly on all the way into heaven.

We have all experienced trying to comfort a person who is heavily mourning, or in intense, paralyzing sorrow. We find that there are no words adequate to say. The words we do sincerely try to say seem to not even so much as skim any surface of their rivers of sorrow. It seems to be a place that no other fellow friend or loved one can enter into. It seems to be a sacred place that only God can enter into. I think it is.  Jesus said to His disciples that He prayed to the Father that He would send the Comforter in Jesus name. That He would be with us forever. Jesus also said, "I will not leave you comfortless." He then gave them a parting gift by saying, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." We then see that the His peace comes by the Comforter.    The Comfort of the Holy Spirit will extend over the entire earth during the Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ. The "whole creation that groans and is in travail" will be comforted forever. This means the animal kingdom will be comforted as well as the whole earth, along with saved humanity. There is an eternal destiny for all people who have "born the battle and the heat of the day" will enter into, to be comforted forever.   "And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful."   The Comforter who now dwells in you, and is with you, will be with you in spectacular glory. And that comfort will Know no bounds through the Eternity of Eternities. Unimaginable, amazing Comforter!  Contact:  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com  Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl When we become born again we know something real happened. Something strikes within us and it is real, the new life has entered in. We know that we have become a new creation and we come alive. Our hearts instantly begin to burn within us when we read His word. We find that we cannot stop praying and looking towards heaven within our hearts. We run in the path of His commandments like the wind. We fall seven times and rise again, and year after year we grow up in Him. We grow as cedars of Lebanon stretching forth our branches to heaven, bearing fruit in old age. During these years, we are exercising ourselves unto Godliness, denying ourselves, and picking up our crosses daily, and follow Him. In this narrow way, we have found that way is the surrendered life to Jesus Christ. The longer we stay on that way, the more deaths we die on our crosses. I believe that mostly what we die from is the result of persecution, which brings rejection, loss of who we thought were friends, members of households becoming our worst enemies, and all forms, and degrees of meanness and abuse. A time comes in a life surrendered to Christ, that it is a life of death. "Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body." As true Believers we take a lot of persecution, and we do so because we seek to not "repay evil for evil." We chose "not to let our good be evil spoken of." We choose from our burning hearts to obey Jesus when He says, "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust." But there comes a time where something strikes within us, and like Paul in 2 Corinthians chapters 10 and 11, we see a picture of a man who owned his faith, calling and position Jesus called him into. Something struck Paul in these chapters as he confronts his contenders. One day he said, "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things." There is a spiritual maturity of ownership that is beautiful, free and strong. These beautiful chapters show the maturity that each of us are to arrive to, and like Paul, something will strike you in your life. That striking within is something that causes you to stand up for yourself and tell it like it is in the firm power of a true servant and friend of Jesus Christ.  And not to convince a person, or get them to like you, or defend yourself, but to declare your personal position of eternal faith like a valiant man or woman. There is something so powerfully, other-worldly about it. This is the unfading life of the born again saint purchased by the Blood of Jesus Christ who count not their lives dear to themselves, but only and evermore in Christ...."World without end."

There has been no issue on God's part. He is ever-present and always ready to reveal Himself to anyone who calls upon Him. However, there has been a grave departure from KNOWING Him, to the self-satisfying perception that He is personally known to millions. A time is upon this world that will try that claim. Jesus said to the Pharisees, "Ye seek the scripture because in them ye think ye have eternal life, and they are they which testify of Me, but ye will not come to Me that ye may have life." It is high time to go at once to Jesus personally. Not via a church leader, or third party. It is time now to know Jesus Christ for yourselves.    He is a real person, more real than you and me. He is your Maker, He created you to KNOW Him. Do not ever be satisfied to dwell in the shadows of men, but in the shadow of the Most High God. Throw down everything and run to Him. You do not want to find yourself in a position where you thought you were saved, and then find out you took Jesus for granted. This is not about works or earning. This is about your eternal life and your life even now. Like Blind Bartemaeus when he was told by someone, "Arise, be of good cheer, Behold, the Master calleth for thee!"   Well, then arise, and go now to Him and do it now. We are those living in the final closing seconds of the church age and Jesus Christ IS coming again. When He does you want to be ready for Him. If He shall tarry a little while, then regarding the horrible times coming upon all humanity, you are going to want to be His. His door is open right now and He is waiting for you. He will immediately receive you, and reveal Himself to you. It is time to KNOW Him, and not just about Him, because it will do you no good when "a thousand fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand" and find out you never knew Him.

It is a personal stand, one that is verbalized the same way many people in the Bible proclaimed. "As for me..." Over the past 20 or more years the church has become weak and anemic. New generations emerged out of the YouTube theological "every wind of doctrine" era. Dark days are ahead of us, and the time to KNOW Jesus Christ is NOW. And not through a third party, but for themselves. Every kind of intellectual ascent has slowly replaced knowing Jesus and our Father in Heaven personally through the Holy Spirit.  However, soon that mental furniture is going to prove to be a "broken tooth or a foot out of joint." It is in the KNOWING Jesus Christ one on one. KNOWING His voice and claiming the Cross. To the intent that no matter what, in the hardest situations and circumstances, you will be able to say, "As for me...." You may find yourself alone in that resolution, but you will never be alone. Jesus Christ "stands on the right hand of the poor to save them." It is time to KNOW Jesus. Use your time wisely, and make sure you are on HIS path, and not find out you have been on another path that leads to destruction. Remember, "the righteous are as bold as a lion." 

Over the last decade or more, the people of God have slowly, and little by little given up their personal time to internet theology, fast tracking their spiritual growth. They slowly began to replace what was an hour of prayer and reading, to 30 minutes of prayer and reading, in order to add on yet another theology teacher. Then the 30 minutes turned into 15 minutes. Because they begin to tell themselves that, "at least I got a sermon or a good word to carry me through." Next they begin to give up a day here and there, until they barely ever pick up their Bible anymore. This has greatly impacted and molded this generation's Christian, and now they are unstable and baby-like. After so many years, they no longer hear the voice of God, because of all the other voices they are now listening to. They consequently, sadly replaced His precious voice. Also there has been a mutation of the gospel into one that wants to build an earthly theocracy on earth, and they are actively defending that lie. They only listen to, and endorse their false prophets, and their twisted heresies, and fight for what is "of the earth earthy." While at the same time there are the TRUE believers that want nothing to do with this "present evil world" because they are in it, but not of it. Plus they know that this is the final end of the church age, and therefore they fight for what is eternal. They know that judgement is coming down hard on this nation, as well as the whole world. In fact, they see it already here and building up. These are the ones who are conditioned, and have lived surrendered lives to Jesus Christ. Israel took for granted that God was with them, but found out the hard way that He was not. In Acts 7:38-39 it says, "This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in mount Sina, and with our fathers: who received the lively oracles to  give unto us: To who our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt." In 1 Samuel chapter 4 we read that Israel went out to war with the Philistines and they were immediately defeated. They surmised that if they went and got the ark and brought it into the camp, it would save them. Notice they said, they thought "IT" would save them. They were dead wrong. They were again severely defeated, and thousands perished because they took it for granted that God would defeat their enemies, their own apostacized way. This is what mainstream Christianity has become, and the religious system is nothing short of what the ark became to the Israelites. This nation and the entire world is under judgement now, and next year is going to test everything all of us have ever known, and in Whom we have had faith in. Every word of the Bible will flash into the minds of those who have been in it. Who have poured over it faithfully for as long as they have been born again. These faithful, powerful believers will be quick to listen, and swift to give high obedience in critical situations. The MOST important thing you can do is to KNOW God. Stop listening to so many voices that do nothing but cause confusion and strife. Spend quality time alone with God. Knowing about God and KNOWING God are completely two different things. It will prove fatal in the lives of people who thought they knew Him when the heavy trials will hit, and the find out they never knew Jesus Christ personally. Yet for those that have KNOWN Him, will be valiant, full of the Holy Spirit, bold as lions and who KNOW how to wield their sword, which is the Word, Jesus Christ! This is one of my favorite poems" Take time for God, as soon to say, No time to eat, to drink, to work, to play. Take time for God, or a poor mishappen thing you'll be, When you step into eternity and say, "I had no time for  thee." Contact: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

With the new year approaching, and this year soon to be behind, my mind wondered what the Lord will have me share and teach going forward. I have very real valid, legitimate concern about something. It is one big question that keeps getting stronger and stronger. That question has been sown in prayer to Christ with vigor lately. Not to mention on top of that, for the past 48 hours a powerful spirit of oppression began to afflict me which I could get no relief from. With every one so hyper focused on the natural plane of this carnal existence regarding what seems to be, tidal waves of destruction coming at us from every side. As well as nerve wracking, synonymous catastrophes being expected, but not knowing which one will hit us first. The build up of negative information both in the natural and the physical. My big question is, "Who is hearing the word of God anymore? Who has ears to hear what the Spirit says to the saints in the earth anymore? Are people listening with one ear, while at the same time listening more to the voices of this world with the other? Is the voice of the Lord growing fainter and fainter each day in those who once heard Him? I felt like my heart has been in some sort of awful labor, and a deep, great concern took hold of me, then I began pouring out my soul to the Lord. This morning, I knew in my spirit that the Holy Spirit had given me the simplest answer. Which was, "Never stop reading the Word, that is what you are to do, and that is what you are to tell them to do."  After I received the answer, that heavy spirit of oppression departed from me. It was "like the bright clouds, in the clear shinings after the rain." Now I know why the Holy Spirit spoke these words to me last week over and over again in the middle of the night, "In His light shall we see light." I had wondered why He chose that verse above all other verses to repeat to me.  That is until today. I realized He had already given me the answer to my question before I pleaded with Him to show me. His orders were for me  solidly to continue in His word, and never to stop. To remain faithful in it as long as I live. The reason I think the enemy oppressed me so badly was obvious, as the worst attack came this morning when I tried to read the word. And that he knew Jesus would have me tell you, and give you a solid charge. The devil does not want any of the saints of Jesus to keep in His word of light which dispels any and all kinds of darkness. His word is a potent quickening light force, something the enemy hates to his lowest hell. Always consider it an honor and worthy discipline to daily read His word. It has great eternal revenues in Jesus beautiful perpetual kingdom of light. We are His children of light, and in His light we see light. Light is sown for the righteous and gladness for the upright in heart. The entrance of His word gives light, it gives understanding to the simple. Oh, that wonderful light that shines in the face of Jesus Christ who is the Word!  Keep yourself in His word because "the path of the just is like the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the Perfect Day (eternity)." This world is going straight into the judgement prescribed for it, but not for us, "the Children of Light." Contact: Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com Website: www.joaniestahl.com

Click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl Like every month of December the account of the story of Jesus coming into this world is revisited over and over again. When the other eleven months come around it is never heard from or mentioned again. It has been grossly tied to crass commercialized greed and sadly connected to it. But the powerful, miraculous story stands the test of time.  I was reading the 2nd chapter of Luke, and read the part after Mary gave birth to Jesus. How there were shepherds in the field keeping watch over the flock by night. "And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid." I thought about how the heavens and the glory of God could have shone upon other people groups that night. Instead He chose those men not only to see the open heavens, and to hear the spectacular birth announcement. But the greatest thing was they were the first eyewitnesses of all mankind to see their beautiful Redeemer, and Savior of the world.  My mind pictured those simple men sitting out in the open field, tired, dirty and unassuming. They were the poorest of the poor, the lowest of the low of citizenry, the underpaid and overworked. They were looked upon with disgust and disdain. Yet I see a deeper message and insight. They represented the very people Jesus was sent first to preach the gospel to. As the Lord spoke in the temple in Luke 4:18, " The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised." Perhaps, this described the very lives of these men, which is why they were chosen.  And it seems to me that these men will ever represent not only to whom the gospel is first preached, but the kind of people who will powerfully go forth preaching it to the end of time.  We are to emulate their first faith like little children, yet mighty men, and to go forth preaching the same message with that same intense conviction and joy. Never forget those shepherd men as long as you live and not just in the month of December, and ever seek to join their ranks. I love what an old saint said from the 15th century. "Wherever you find a small group of poor Christians,....join them!" Contact:  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

There came a moment as a young adult where she did not want to live anymore, and thought about ending it all.  But that was the exact moment Jesus Christ came to her, and spoke words of love and life to her. She describes a spiritual rags to riches story, where God has taken everything she went through, and created her to be a powerful instrument of the love of God.   She has authored and published three books so far, and has now written her first book in a series of three called MANHUNT.  It is written just in time for people who have not really read their bibles, yet are living in the final closing moments of the church age.    To sum it up in her own words, "It weaves threads from before the dawn of time, when angels rebelled and the dark, broken days of Earth began. Now is the time of the end…Earth’s last days. In order for a marriage and a family to survive the tribulation, PTSD, addictions, betrayal trauma, the great deception, the reign of terror of the king, the children's prison, the re-education camp, and pursuit by the Man Hunters; deep faith in God and extreme courage are required. Only the strong survive. MANHUNT has a message of hope and forgiveness. As Corrie Ten Boom said, “There is no pit so deep the love of God is not deeper still”. It is a message to unbelievers to flee from the wrath to come. The message is Run to Jesus. He loves you. If you repent of your sin, and trust in Him, you will find the narrow path —   forgiveness, love, mercy, and life…"  Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/ Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

Now, even the unsaved of this nation know in their own way that it is the end of America. The surprising thing is, that millions of Christ-professing people will stand up to refute it. They are hanging on to hope that this nation will somehow weather this great storm we are headed into and go back to their godless-normal and carry on.  The reality is that this nation is like an old, waterlogged ship being thrashed out at sea in a brewing storm. A storm that is turning into the worst this nation has ever encountered and is not ready for.  This nation is resolutely headed for a shipwreck of inevitable tragic carnage. America has always been called by other nations "the Land of Plenty." Now it is being stripped down from the head down to the feet, "all joy hath been darkened," and the "transgression is heavy upon the land." In the Book of Acts chapter 27 it is recorded that Paul the Apostle was a prisoner on a ship headed for Rome. He perceived that there would be "hurt and great harm," and the shipmaster and the centurion did not believe him.  That whole account is so reminiscent of this nation, and it's coming destruction. Paul was a potent praying man and friend and servant of Jesus. In the darkest part of that story, when all hope was lost, Paul told all the people on that boat that "the angel of the Lord appeared to him that night, saying, "Fear not, be of good cheer."  That the ship would be destroyed, but there would be no loss of life.  Everyone survived because ONE man believed the Lord and obeyed Him. There is a great storm coming upon this land. Your survival is not bound up in your food storage, though it is wise to have it. It will ultimately be Jesus Christ who will move heaven and earth to protect and feed you.   There is a food shortage of epic proportion that is coming this nation has never experienced. If there are no human resources available due to not being able to store up food due to lack of finances, then you make sure you store up the sure word of God within you. This is the food that you store up. You store up until you are so strong in faith nothing can sink you! Store up the word of God, "thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against you." That sin David spoke about was unbelief and that unbelief in the coming days will be deadly.  Don't be tied down to this world. You are going to have to cast all your future and everything into His hands, and you are going to learn to trust Him. Jesus will take care of you. He shed His precious Blood for you, and He will see to it that your faithful, uncompromising love to Him will rewarded.

With a world-wide pandemic, a new surge of CV rampaging throughout this land, new shutdowns, loss of jobs in the millions. On top of that the entire nation is melting down financially. Total nerve wracking, nail-biting uncertainty. Along with stress and panic, being woven into increasing hopelessness is the momentum of present day humanity.   The world is tapping their nails on the dash board of humanity not knowing what to expect with these coming changes. And these "changes" are not what anyone voluntary has thrown their hat in the ring for. I thought about these coming changes in the light of an unchanging God. I thought about history that took me back in my mind to ancient days beginning with  the fall of Adam and Eve. My mind's eye traveled throughout the ages, and millennia of kingdoms, and rulers who once ruled in great undefeatable power who are all now in eternity. Thrones and great world dominions all the way up to the present day nations and governments, and those who rule in power.    My adjoining thoughts sounded like the first chapter of Ecclesiastes. "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after."  I thought about that unchangeableness of God in prayer in the night, and then in morning devotion I came across Psalm 11:3-4, "If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men." There is a foundation that the true born again Christian stands upon while they live in this changing world. There are many foundations in this world, but there is only one sure eternal foundation, which is Jesus Christ. Make sure about what foundation you are digging into, building your house upon. Be careful that your foundation will be found in the end to be one that has beautiful eternal reward. Choose to be counted among those who Paul the apostle spoke about in this verse, "Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life."   Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

After 11 months we have seen nothing but full blown heavy drama that sees no end in sight. Being thankful this year has a whole new meaning. To many they have a new lease on being thankful, while others are far from it. Bottom line, people are going along with it, but their hearts are not in it. The whole idea of thankfulness has only it's symbol of a cooked turkey, mashed potatoes, and apple pie. I think most people who are gathering together are doing so with heaviness.   A few nights ago I awoke thinking about Thanksgiving coming up, and what it really means to be thankful. I started to think about what I am truly thankful for. A flood of very bad memories, even the worse ones that made me wince, came flooding in. It was like watching a video of my whole life play out before my eyes. I said to the Lord, "Oh Lord, no, I don't want to remember that, or that!" Then I wished He would erase the worse ones away. Then I remembered that I had begged Him long ago during a three week onslaught of the absolutely worst vivid memories full of the deepest darkest pain. I cried out, "Lord please erase these memories from my mind!"    I heard His voice deep within say to me, "If I were to erase them, then I would have to erase Myself." I understood what He meant. If I were to forget all the horrible things in my past, then I would have to forget every time He deliverd and rescued me. I understood that the giving of thanks is not an automaton response as the Children of God, but one born out of those who have received His great mercy in the hardest afflictions. In Psalm 66:11-12 it says, "Thou broughtest us into the net; thou laidst affliction upon our loins. Thou hast caused men to ride over our heads; we went through fire and through water: but thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place."  It is His mercy bestowed upon us that gives us thankful hearts to Him, and makes us "vessels of mercy prepared afore time unto glory."  "Oh give thanks unto the Lord for He is good, His mercy endureth forever." So it is clear, that our thanksgiving is in response to the receiving of His enduring mercies all the days of our lives. The Lord give you mercy and grace this Thanksgiving, and remember Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for you, which is the greatest gift of mercy this world can ever know. In heaven, we will never cease to give Him thanks forever and ever. We will cast our crowns before Him, the One who sits upon His mercy seat. "For mercy is built up in the heavens."  Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

I know I am not alone in that statement. In fact, millions of Americans whether they are born again or not see the writing on the wall like neon lights. The reality is setting in fast as we blatantly see our entire nation going into the spin cycle. The sun is setting on this nation, and it is not rising again. That is the cold hard fact.   Another cold hard fact is there is nothing we can do to stop it. Multitudes of Christian's fasted, prayed, gathered together in masses to cry out to the Lord to stop it. However, it is going full steam ahead. There is going to be a big pill to swallow for them when they see that this nation is going to humbled. All eyes are on the government of this nation hoping for answers.  All the same, the answers they are looking for did not happen. I am fully persuaded that this nation along with the entire world is going down hard under the mighty hand of God in judgement.   Nonetheless, there are thousands of born again, Spirit-filled believers that know we are at the very last seconds of the "end of this age." They are "in the world and not of it." They have continued with Jesus Christ through the thick and thin of their lives, and are conditioned to be under His command and ready. A solid life in Christ is what it is going to take to go through some heavy things coming on the horizon. Make sure to stay true to the great commission Jesus Christ has entrusted you with. The saints in the earth at this final epic time will be those who love Jesus Christ, and "will shine like the sun when he goeth forth in his strength." Just stick to reading your Bible, and pray without ceasing. Which increases you, making you razor sharp in the Spirit. A full bodied bravery will enter in. You will be as bold as a lion in the moment He calls you into action. "Remember Lot's wife."  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

There is a very real economic reset coming, CV19 is now raging worse than before with no end in sight. The mother of all lockdowns is any day now. People are preparing for their own wars in various regions, and everyone else is caught in the middle. For the first time in our nation's history a record breaking number of people voted to the tune of 141 million. That is great sign of a nation in distress not of good times. It shows that people are desperate for leadership and answers to the hell descending upon us. It does not matter who is president at this point in time. This nation is in it's death throes, and nothing will ever go back to the days before, not ever.  I do not think anyone in this generation can prepare for what is coming, and prepping can only go so far. Lately there are two big questions echoing around the nation, which is, "What is next? and What are we supposed to do?" What people should be is what they should have been doing all along. It is the life they have been living in daily communion with Jesus Christ. And that does not mean religious acrobats.  I am talking about a real life they have been living with Him in the day to day, and year after year. Even those who have not been doing so, it is not a hard thing to begin doing. In fact it is as simple as looking up to Him in prayer to Him wherever you are. You can begin talking to Him, and reaching out to Him in heartfelt searching prayer.  As soon as you do, He will immediately engage your heart and enter more fully into your life. It is about your heart, not about the external spiritual handsprings, and high performance religious action. So as you draw near to Jesus, then you will be prompted and led of Him. His Holy Spirit will teach you, and comfort you. The reading of His word will open up within you like well-springs of water, and the light of heaven will shine upon you.  A time is coming where your faith is going to be put to the test. Your believing on Him, and what He has written in His word will be your only foundation and source of truth that you can rely on.  This world is scrambling for answers, direction, insight, and the latest breaking news stories, and endless tabloid-like YouTube Channels While your connection to Jesus must be your one and only most powerful connection that will never fail you. I do not say hide your head in the sand like an ostrich. You should know what is going on around you, which will give you wisdom in how to pray, and what to pray for. This nation is not going to save you or me.  Whoever is in office is not going to save anyone. Christ is our Savior, and while "He gives eternal life to as many who call upon His name," He is the One who saves those who are sick, hungry, afraid and in despair.  If He can save you from sin, death and hell, then He most certainly will preserve you in this world, and take you beautifully into the next one.  Finally, never ever lose the love of God in everything you do in His name. The love of God will empower all you will ever do to the merit of His wonderful name. His love makes you brave, courageous, and valiant even unto death, if need be. Keep His way, and do not depart from it. Do what the apostles did when they were sprung from prison, when the angel of the Lord told them, "Go, stand, and speak all the words of this life!" Bottom line, when you keep His way, Jesus will keep yours as "you hold out His word of life! Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/ Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

"What's next?" Many Believers are either full of anger and wrath over the election results. While others are afraid of what is coming upon this land. There are many who do not know what to think anymore, and many now are lost in a spin cycle of other hot emotions and confusion. Their attention has been mostly all on the news and "what is happening next" moment by moment. The Believers revel over their favorite news sources that are guaranteeing victory. The unsaved are partying in the street toasting to their new president-elect.  Which has caused a back and forth volley of hot emotions, accusations, hatred vows of revenge and oaths of war. There is a big line drawn down the middle of this nation. Our nation is called the United States, but right now there is nothing united about it. But there is another side that is being overlooked. That is the Lord's side. Caleb chose the Lord's side alongside Joshua. He warred alongside the Israelites in enemy territory in order to assist them in obtaining their land inheritance. From the beginning he openly proclaimed that he wholly followed the Lord from his heart to old age to Joshua when he asked him for the mountain to settle down in. He received his request and Mount Hebron became his inheritance in the royal portion of Judah. It is one thing to choose a man on earth to rule a nation, but it is far more crucial to choose "The Man Christ Jesus."  What do you do next? IF you are a true born again Christian, nothing changes when everything around you does. You do what Jesus said, "He that would be My disciple must first deny himself, pick up his cross and follow Me." That is what you do, and it should be nothing short of what your whole walk with Christ has been all along. This nation and world will go as it is written in prophecy. Do not let what is going take a hold of you to the extent you are angry, losing sleep, combative an stressed out. If you are truly born again then "you are dead and your life is hid with Christ in God." And since that is the truth, then you can be reassured of the immoveable life of Christ within you. Do what Caleb did for the rest of your life. He chose the Lord's side and wholly followed the Lord with all his heart. If you choose what he chose then his outcome will be your outcome. Your inheritance is eternally assured in Christ as well as your "incorruptible crown that fadeth not away." Contact:  Website:  http://www.joaniestahl.com/ Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

Never before in the history of this nation, has millions of people been set on edge. I would think the word carnage spells it out pretty well. Christians are praying and warfaring for the incumbent, while the unsaved of the nation are fighting for their man, and their own spiritual warfare through treachery and violence. There is a violence that has built up that is ready to break forth into a great civil war upon our land. What will happen if Trump is not re-elected? There will have to be an acceptance in the obvious that God allowed it, and to be at peace with His decision even if we do not understand. But I think it is not too hard to understand if you see where we are at in prophetic time.  Then it becomes quite obvious why.  Many Christians do not believe that God would allow a wicked man to be set over them because God is good, merciful and full of love. However, a casual reading of the word would reveal that God's people beginning with the Israelites did have wicked kings rule over them. They mingled with the heathen nations, married their daughters, amalgamated their pagan religions into their religion. God warned them over and over through prophets over the space of hundreds, even thousands of years. Yet they still "hardened their hearts, and stiffened their necks, and turned away their shoulders."   Therefore, God sent them into captivity to be ruled by evil kings, wicked rulers and princes. God even said to them when they went into captivity under the harsh terrifying rule of King Nebuchadnezzar for 70 years, that they would be there "until they learned to obey Him."  Did it ever occur to any of us that Biden who looks like he might be our next president will play a direct part of the judgement of this nation? It just may be so. God does not always give His people what they want though it sounds good. But He is also known for giving His people what they need for their good.   If this man Biden gets into office, then perhaps we should look at it as God giving us new orders, and new charges for service in these last closing seconds of this church age. I have a feeling that God will use it to push His people into Him in collective potent prayers like never before for this last time. To redirect their attention to Himself and away from carnal governments, and for His Kingdom to come. I believe new orders and new charges are coming for us. Pay attention and be ready to receive and obey them. Soldier up!  Contact: Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

If you feel led to help support my ministry click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl For two thousand years the knowledge of the return of the Lord has been the central hope of every generation. Yet they are now gone and we remain. The first century churches were alive with that hope. In fact, the greeting between the Jews was always Shalom. But when the gospel was preached to the Greeks, the greeting "shalom" no longer worked. The term "Maranatha" then was the common greeting between them. Maranatha has duel meaning. That Jesus came, and that He is coming again. This term was said in the coming and going of their lives. But not now. You would think that after over two thousand years we would be shouting Maranatha to one another. Instead it is now only a Christian marketing word to sell more t-shirts, stickers, caps and poster art.   The indictment stands clear. The reason that term is no longer being used  is because no one believes it anymore. If they do, they do not believe it in their hearts. They "have heard of it with the hearing of the ears but their hearts are far from it." Rather it should be that their hearts are far from Jesus. They are fighting for "a nation that cannot save them." Where is your heart today? Do you believe that Jesus is about to show up at anytime? There is a powerful flow through the saints of God all over the world right now that are dreaming dreams of saying goodbye to friends and loved ones in dreams. They are dreaming of running outside being compelled to look up into the sky with the thrill of great joyful anticipation. Jesus is coming back, and it is clear that it will happen on a day like any other day, when people least expect it.   We are soon going to hear "the sound of the last trump," and we will enter into heaven. Even if you do not believe in the rapture, it is okay. We are brothers and sisters still. This life is short, and the one to come will be "world without end." What you do here will meet you there in heaven at the Bema Seat of Jesus Christ. I believe there is a very short window and what we do with our time here now is the most critical of any surviving generation that will usher in the end of the church age. Do not set your heart on things here, but in heaven where you will spend throughout the age of ages. Be ready. Those that are ready are those that are watching, If you are not watching you are not ready. Now is a good time to be ready, and be watchful, you will not be disappointed at His coming.

The reality is it has become something no one really cares about anymore. That is what a woman from Alaska wrote to me regarding the once rich fertile soils of the natives there when the gospel was preached long ago. Now many decades later, the offspring of the elders that might show up in church that are very few are dead to the gospel.  This nation and several others have been over gospelized to the point that people are not interested in it anymore. They have created other versions and other angles of it, and emptied it of it's purity and power to save. I remember when the 44th president was in office for two consecutive terms, prayer was being echoed from earth into heaven "with loud shots and crying unto Him that was able to save us from death." But not now. Now there is heavy prayer emphasis on a man to save this nation. The only real salvation that matters is souls. Imagine if we prayed like that for those that are lost in our own families. Four more years is not going to matter, and whoever gets into office, it still will not matter. Like the Church of Ephesus who thought they were on the up and up with "their works, labor and patience."  That they had an appearance of religious piety of "not being able to bear then which are evil." Basically, love was no longer the power behind the gospel. They became "holier than thou." Yet the Lord whose eyes are a flame of fire saw right through all those works, and basically said the same thing to the Ephesian church as He did to Adam, "Adam were are you!? Jesus told them that He had "somewhat against them, because they left their first love." His command was that they stop the dead works, and instead remember from where they fell and repent to Him. He gave them a choice. If they did not He would come quickly and would remove the candlestick from them. Which He actually did. And as the Laodicean church corresponds to this last days church, I happen to hear nothing about the candlestick being here and burning bright. In fact, I do not read anywhere else that there is an candlestick that made it to our day. God did not make an everlasting covenant with America. Only Israel. The only covenant He has made is with the lost humanity through the Blood of the New Covenant. Let us remember that we are now those who have the light of heaven within us, and all heaven is at our disposal for everything we need while we are here. Do not fear what the lost fear. That great light that is in you is now going to be the ONLY light that is going to shine in this nation that has now been plunged into a great darkness. The Candlestick is in YOU!  Contact: Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

In these tight places, we find that the horizontal view is not the direction our souls look to for strength and fortitude anymore. We have this knowing deep within to look heavenward. I really believe that when God created mankind He did so with the added feature of the spiritual reflex of looking upwards. The spirit of man looks up because whether people know Jesus or not, the looking up indicates that there is something more. Something otherworldly, and a Someone far greater than themselves or any human.   In the Bible, remarkable things occurred on mountain tops. Remember how God revealed Himself to Moses. Remember how Noah landed on a mountain top after the flood. Remember how Elijah challenged the false prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel. Jesus gave the Sermon on the Mount, which were the Beatitudes. Faith is spoken in relation to a great mountain. Or not being afraid when the Psalmist says, "God is our refuge and strength, and ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried in the midst of the sea.." God's eternal dwelling place is "on the sides of the north, Mt. Zion the city of the great King," in heaven. When we see the mountains, they speak to us of God's immoveable, mighty love for us. His eternal nature in great powerful, majestic display. If you are feeling weary, worn down and afraid, you really do not need to drive to the mountains to meet the Lord. You can do what David did when he said, " I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore."  Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

What first began as an event they typically planned turned out to be not what the Lord had in mind. The Lord met Jeanie on a walk and spoke to her these words, "Reset, Rebound and Renew."  Three times she heard that and knew that Jesus wanted something else. Her and her husband met with each other and knew that they wanted to follow what the Lord wanted. Which is something they had never done before since 2016 when they first began. That is hold a worship, restoration and a revival event. Though in every event they have had, they always hold a night of prayer and worship. When they canceled the original plan, then the Lord began to build the new one. It all came together and a great excitement and joy exploded. The purpose that God had shown them was that He wants His people who are weary, worn out, in bondage, wounded and controlled by strongholds to be released. This is not a planned power point event. On the contrary, this is an event that Jesus Christ will have full movement towards everyone who attends, it is all about Jesus, prayer, worship, deliverance, and even a baptism on Sunday. it is going to be a powerful time and we are beyond excited! Hope to see you there!  Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/ Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

If you feel led to help support my ministry click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl The whole work of the Cross is summed up in one word. Freedom. The entire world screams for it day and night since the fall of man. The search for freedom is a ruthless march of humanity because of the slavery of sin. There was no way out except through death. But the fear of death kept people in bondage to sin in attempts to obtain spiritual freedom. When Jesus Christ died on the Cross for us, paying our sin debt in full, then rising again in the resurrection, eternal life was now offered freely to anyone.   Even still millions of Believers are in slavery. Outwardly they seek for that freedom they had hoped to receive from placing their faith and trust in Jesus. They then set out for a new march of slavery to obtain freedom in outward spiritual ways. They join churches, bible study groups, prayer groups. They listen to endless messages and sermons, but yet they are on their spiritual death beds. They never realize or know that their freedom has nothing to do with their circumstances or endless spiritual information. I am talking about internal spiritual freedom. Great discouragement is the norm with the Christian masses. Yes, there are many who have devastated lives, and great losses, woundedness, pain and long weary years of sorrows. Many of these spend their lives in this way, but they have an internal "hiding place" in Jesus Christ they dwell in. This is not about a feeling, it is about a great power from within. The freedom in the Spirit is nothing like the outward earthly freedom we know.  Men like Daniel and the three men with him, along with Joseph were all slaves. They were ripped away from their homes, families, and nation, into heathen nations. Yet they refused to bow to foreign gods. They were free within. This freedom gave them great unflinching, resolute power. They were free. Martyrs, though they were thrown into fires, eaten by ravenous lions, torn apart and tortured, were free within. And they endured because of that heavenly potent, power of freedom.   At the last supper after the disciples and Jesus ate, it says that Jesus "knowing where He had come from and where He was going, arose, laid aside his garments, and girded a towel around His waist. He knelt down, and washed the feet of His disciples." That struck me because when we lose our sense of direction we become discouraged. But when we remember where we have come from and where we are going, the freedom comes bursting in, along with pure joy. We do not hang on what is going to happen, or why things did not happen. it does not matter. We serve Jesus for one reason. Gratitude. Not to pay back but because He bought us. This is the pure freedom of happy service for your entire life and you also will lay aside your garments and wear the towel all the days of your life with pure freedom and joy in service.

If you feel led to help support my ministry click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl I have been feeling intensely restless lately. There is something happening within me, and I know I am not alone. We are not like any other people since time began, as we are those alive at the end of the church age. We have the whole picture written in the word and know exactly where we are in time. We are living witnesses as we watch prophecy unfolding at rapid speed. Yet, there is a spiritual deadness that could be felt in the atmosphere over the entire nation, though there are many believers living in it. Yet in other persecuted nations the Believers are all potent, on fire, and fearless. It feels like we are living in the "fatted calf" nation getting ready for the slaughter. The truth is, this nation is going to the slaughter while the entire church at large is in a deep sleep. Nothing seems to phase them. They put more stock in politics to the extent they will march, scream, fight and wage war for it. But there are some that are known by God scattered all over the world. They are the faithful "living stones" that are in hard pressed areas of the world including our nation.    The common denominator is they have a potency in prayer because they "have chosen the thing that is good." Like Moses, "Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible." The visible church is asleep, but there is the real body of Christ that is wide awake, alive, and ready for action. They are waxing bolder and stronger, as they "see the day approaching." What this world is fearing, they are not fearing because they are fearless and well trained. Their hearts are beating hard in them for the Lord. They are "called, chosen and faithful" and Jesus knows who they are.   There is something far greater that is wrong than politics and economics, or a bankrupt dollar. There is no way we can turn this nation around now. There is a time coming very soon when armies and governments are not going to work at all anymore. We are always trying to bail God out through elected officials, instead of us looking to God to bail us out through Jesus Christ. Bottom line, this nation is going down like a sinking ship. What God did in the past with great men and women of God, I fully believe HE WILL do the same kind of powerful exploits in our generation fit for this last time.  But only through those who actually believe He will, and in those who have chosen to "endure as seeing Him who is invisible."

If you feel led to help support my ministry click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl Over the last several decades of post modern Christianity, the American church has developed a gilded eye for religious celebrity. The glitter of big stage, bright lights and fame became the convincing factor that they held  special anointing and truth. The people mistook the wealth, fame and fortune for God's blessings intended for all people. However, after all these decades the same millions that flocked to buy celebrity preachers book, and  attend their conferences, were never endued with extra power from on high. The promises of greater power and fruitfulness proved an epic failure and the demise of the seekers.  God is not interested in celebrity, but in people that have dwelt in the outer-darkness, so to speak, of society. Jesus said "to the poor the gospel is preached." He also said, "the poor ye have with you always." So much damage and wasted time was the only outcome of how-to books, how-to prophesy, how-to be an intercessor, how-to pull down powers and principalities, even how-to be rich. I remember reading those books and begging God for more anointing, more power, more authority, more empowerment of gifts, all the while the spiritually hungry and thirsty were perishing around me. And I wound up spiritually broke, thirsty and hungry. A day came that I threw away all those worthless books, and stuck to the word of God. The beautiful Bible I hold in my hands every day, and pour over, and drink from richly. The "lamp unto my feet and the light unto my path" that is leading me home to heaven. We are nothing more than each of us a blade of grass that the Holy Spirit blows upon. The little blades of grass are the lowest thing that grow upon the earth, but that is what gets all the heat and light of the sun, and where the flowers grow. These little blades of grass are the poor all around us. The time of looking to religious celebrity is over and irrelevant. Today is the day God means for all of us to run our race, full and strong, and with great joy. No matter where we are at in life, RUN! Do in it in faithful prayer, fixing your eyes on the Lord and no one else ever again. The King of Saints, the One who shed his precious Blood for your costly soul. You will only "shine like the sun in the Kingdom of our Father." Contact: Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/ Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

Tens of thousands showed up to repent of the grievous sins on behalf of this nation. Men blew shofars, celebrity ministers and worship bands led the rally. When I watched it I sensed nothing. Since then things have gotten exponentially worse. The way things look right now, it is past that time, though it was a sincere attempt. But is this what we are driven to? Organized repentance rallies? There is something that has been lost. It's like trying to patch up a sinking boat while it already halfway under water. In Iran, China, Afghanistan, South America, and other nations the gospel is powerfully moving, but not here. We think that if we band together last minute, purchase plane tickets to the government capitol, THEN God will hear us. Yet in other countries that are in the underground churches, God is moving in everyone's lives in significant power while living in poverty and heavy persecution. Revealing Himself to them in powerful ways, in dreams and visions. This is happening through a method of sharing the gospel that is nothing this world has EVER seen. My big question is to the Lord Himself. HOW do WE do it here? The "Christian" churches are steeped in seminary studies, and certifications in order to be qualified to preach the gospel. People are ingrained to believe that if the word is not preached by anyone who does not hold a piece of qualifying degrees, then they are unqualified. But that is NOT how the Lord wanted it. Now the entire nation is full of multi- generations of Christians who should have been sharing the gospel with their lives and have not. Way to much has been lost!  The model of the church is one man stands at a podium while everyone listens to a sermon that lasts an hour or more once a week. This has only caused the body of Christ to be weakened over a long period of time. What is coming upon this nation is going to require a firm footing in solitary, tried faith in the person of Jesus Christ, and not in a last minute repentance rally. I cannot help but look at those nations where Jesus is richly and powerfully pouring out His power, and wonder now what my personal responsibility is and will be like. Because it did something in me, and  now I cannot, and will not go back to the way I saw and did things before. And I think that is exactly what He wants. I am ready to follow Jesus wherever He goes and do whatever He wants like a little child. But I will never return to that failed system of doing things. I declare plainly that I seek a better country, and God has gone to prepare it for me and for you. Contact: Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/ Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

If you feel led to help support my ministry click here: PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner: Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl When I think of the beggar Lazarus who sat at the rich man's gate, desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from his table, I see the post modern church. That beggar was so hungry, he could only dream of a couple of flakes of bread to fall into his dirty hands, and savor the morsels. There is a great spiritual hunger in our land, and millions go from table to table trying to eat scraps. But there is nothing consistent. There is no shortage of spiritual junk food. There seems to be no satiating, soul nourishing sustenance that keeps the saints at one table. The table of the Lord. "For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him." So clearly we see there can be only one table.  If we do not have the proper spiritual Bread then how can the Holy Spirit bear witness within us. "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." How are we to be those who bear witness of the truth if after we have received it, to afterward go from table to table. We ultimately are going to sit at the table of Jesus in His eternal Kingdom, so we need to take a good look at whose table we have a habit of eating at now. The eternal cost is too great to spend at the table of another though the food tastes good, and appealing to the eye. "Stolen waters are sweet and bread eaten in secret is pleasant, But he knoweth not that the dead are there; and that her guests are in the depths of hell."   As there is "One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all," there is only ONE truth the Holy Spirit will bear witness of and nobody else, and nothing else. Right now it is very tempting to enter into the broad path through cheap, costless means. But the narrow road is for them that find it, and remain on it. These always sit at the table of the Lord and never consider it contemptible, but a privilege and high honor, and would never think of eating anywhere else.

If you feel led to help support my ministry click here:    PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl  Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner:  Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl  Jesus told His disciples, "And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and THEN shall the end come." Never before has that word stood out to me like a mountain peak in prophecy. There is clearly a cut off point where the Lord says it is done, or else He would not have said "then" cometh the end. The word "then" signifies a cut off point like a commencement announcement. My belief is the gospel of the kingdom HAS been preached throughout the whole world and it is the end, and this is the "then." Of course there are going to be people who will not have heard the gospel preached to them. In fact through the entire seven year tribulation, the gospel will be preached. It will then pick up again through out the one thousand year Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ.  However I am talking about a measure being filled up, where I believe we are at.  The gospel that has been preached for hundreds of years has become so polluted, and up for grabs to anyone who feels they have a better handle on it. Teaching it with newer, and better insights than others, only to have done radical damage to it. "Gathering together teachers having itching ears." Right now, there are over 300,000 Protestant churches in America. Just do the division (300,000 divided by 50 states) and that's an average of 6,000 churches per state. Who has the truth? Are we any better than when this nation first started? The gospel being preached to all nations, has worn thin in our nation. It has been grossly altered, twisted, polluted, watered down and homogenized to the point it has largely become dead. Hearts being calloused to it.  Now I say the TRUE gospel is not dead, because God "keepeth truth forever."  What I am getting at, is seemingly clear to me that the gospel has now been preached though out the whole world, and it is no doubt the end. So what does that mean for the gospel? The gospel must be preached no matter what by true Believers because it is eternally alive. Main stream churches are mostly dead and stand only as a religious system now. What the Lord had in mind is that we go and do it. One of the greatest lies is "big church." The expensive lighting, sound systems, and programs give creedence to their having the real truth. To the American Christian, more means they are the ones who have the truth.  But it is the poor the gospel is preached to, and it is the poor who go out and preach it. True evangelism is one poor man showing another poor man where to find Bread.  I don't believe Jesus had it in mind that only one man should do it all, and a select group. YOU are a direct part of the commission.   And that does not mean creating a ministry, we have enough of them. You have a life! Use your life right where you are, and that is how the gospel is preached to the poor. One person at a time to another person. The gospel is alive and will do all the work by virtue of the Holy Spirit. Let go of the news drama of impending doom, banking catastrophe's, deadly viruses on the horizon, civil wars breaking out. Look up, "For your redemption draweth nigh" and Jesus is at the door.  "See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time because because the days are evil." Let only the power of the gospel be your anchor from now on  It is what will guarantee an immoveable firm foundation, and solid safety to the end. Hold fast to what will abide forever..."World without end."  Hold fast to what will abide forever..."World without end."  Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

PayPal:  http://paypal.me/joanstahl  Please prayerfully consider becoming a ministry partner:  Patreon:  http://www.patreon.com/joaniestahl  There has been long standing doctrinal debates on the healing of Jesus. Who gets healed,who doesn't and when. There is a doctrine called Word of Faith which teaches that everyone can and should experience immediate healing the moment they ask God for it.  When they are not healed, the sad outcome of millions that believe this false doctrine, go away disillusioned, let down, defeated and not good enough. They think there is something wrong with their faith. They then begin to try giving every last penny they have to charlatan ministries like the poor during Jesus day who had to purchase doves in the market places. Who did so with slim hope the God of Israel might look their way.  The only people who make out with this doctrine are those who promise healing for a price. When Jesus was alive on earth, we know that He went about healing everyone that was sick with many diseases, mental illnesses and demonic oppression. The only reason He healed everyone was to show Satan that His Kingdom of Heaven was there to take over. It was a declaration of war. Now that Jesus is in heaven, we are given the great commission. In Luke 4:18-19, Jesus said, " The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord."  This is the same commission that we are given. Yet in the matter of healing, it is in His sovereign right to heal a person immediately, or over a long period of time for His very good reasons.  If Jesus were to heal everyone instantly, the vast majority of them would be like the nine Lepers that Jesus healed. They went their way to show themselves to the priest, but the tenth one was the only one that returned to fall down at His feet to thank Him. As a person is slowly healed, it is because they have continued in faith to keep thanking Jesus, and to trust Him. Carving the words on their hearts, "My grace is sufficient for thee. My strength is made perfect in weakness"  Even in the darkest, most painful, unbearable paths of their journey, they go to meet the Lord in deeper worship and potent aromatic love. When another wave of healing takes place year after year, they become a great wealth of comfort, richness of mercies of God, and potent pure love that pours out of them into other lives. Those who are quickly healed, though grateful will never know this glorious heavenly beauty. It is important to rest in the everlasting Arm of His love, and as He pours in healing, your life will resemble heavenly citizens.

The inclination is to want to hold onto that time the powerful presence of the Lord came upon them. How He filled them up with flowing eternal waters from heaven, enveloping them with a love not of this world. These very real experiences are so intensely profound, that many try to keep that powerful experience alive.  They try to recreate the moment, the mood and essence. They return to that same place wherever it may be in hope they will re-experience it. But mostly they never do, so they keep going back to that same earthly place, but it is empty. You see these experiences from the Lord are so powerful that they are not given often for good reason. If the saints were visited like that all the time, it would ruin them, and it already has. And because of this there are millions of Christians who want only spiritual, supernatural experiences all the time and nothing else. It is as if nothing can be done without always having to hear a word from another person, or from Jesus Himself. They spend half of their earthly lives waiting around for a word, a vision, a prophecy spoken over them before they will move. All the while the gift in them is never given away.   I fully believe in every gift of the Holy Spirit, and so does the enemy. This is a warning born in love towards everyone who will hear. Be careful that none of you live a life in Christ always seeking for a place, or sensation or you will regrettably waste your precious life here on earth. Live your life in the Spirit of the Living God who dwells within you richly and freely, "for you walk by faith and not by sight."  You are meant to touch other lives everyday with full power in the love of Jesus Christ. His power of love, joy, healing and comfort will flow from you as His vessel of honor. Be careful what you hang your armor on!

The gospel brings life to the receiver and death to the giver. If the gospel brought death to Jesus Christ, why would we think that in preaching the gospel it would be any less for us.  Jesus said, "If anyone would be My disciple, let Him deny Himself, and take up His cross and follow Me." If it killed Him to give life to us, and in turn invites us to do the same, why would we expect that it would any less? The mixture of the gospel is life and death, laughter and tears. Such as it is with us that live the common ordinary life. This is what Jesus said about His Father in John 10:17, "The reason My Father loves Me is is that I lay down My life, and I take it up again, no one takes it from Me." Jesus was not sentenced to die by His Father, He was allowed to choose. I believe this is why He said "this is why MY Father loves Me. God the Father had this extraordinary plan of winning us for all eternity by having His Son killed. But His Son voluntarily responded. It was not easy for Him to respond. In fact, He spent His whole life by practicing, and even the night before it was still difficult for Jesus. And He said, "God is there another way, is there another way." By saying, "Father if it be thy will let this cup pass from Me." Many Christians today cry out for another way than the cross. It is very easy to thoughtlessly say, "Yes Lord, I will pick up my cross daily and follow after you." But that is short lived and there was never a real willing heart to do so. They do not want to deny themselves. They do not want to pick up the cross offered to them. If the believer does not pick up their cross, then HOW are they going to be real followers of Jesus Christ? One begets the other. This is the "broad road" of "cross-less Christians." They want a religious experience that costs them nothing, which is why they give nothing away of themselves. Taking up your cross is a voluntary as Jesus' Cross was. "As My Father hath sent Me so send I you." If you have tasted the love of God. If you have tasted of His sweetness at all, then there is no other way to serve Him, but giving up your life. And this is voluntary. This is not a sentence of death at all. We are not sentenced to death, we are just privileged to answer His call.  Contact: Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/ Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

In the book of Acts 17:21 it says, "For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing." This describes the modern day Christians at the end of this Church Age.  They are pressing for special revelations of the end day by day. Their bibles are never searched or poured over.  God HAS shown us the end from the beginning, yet it seems to never be enough. And there is such a weariness and hardness to everyone's walk because they have not had a glimpse of heaven. Without that revelation, the Believers then lose strength, perseverance and hope. When you can have a glimpse of the end, then you will push through the middle part of your race. The other world MUST become more real than this one. Forsake this present evil world. The more you spend time in the word and prayer, your eyes will open, and you will "desire a better country, a heavenly land. "Let us therefore go forth unto Him without the camp, bearing His reproach. For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come."

That is by the seminarian standards of qualified individuals. However, that is not what Jesus had in mind when He gave everyone the charge of the Great commission.  When Jesus stood in the temple He said, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him."  Which is exactly what He did. Your commission and mine is to do these things with our very lives, and in so doing, we are legging out the gospel in the common daily life. I full believe the days of the mega churches and celebrity pastors are done. Today is the day we begin to preach the gospel with our lives, in everything we do. There is great power in it, as multitudes are deeply lost, desperate, starving and lost. Animate the gospel in everything you do. "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord."

The enemy does not care if you can repeat a verse once in a while, or read a 5 minute meditation. What he does stand up and takes notice of is the saint that makes a deeply heartfelt commitment born out of conviction to draw near to Jesus. He wastes no time to use what is at hand.   He will work to distract and cause delays and bizarre hindrances that rapidly increase. He will cause things to happen from the moment you wake up to incite stressful thoughts, and away goes your peace, and he rules the day. It seems as though you have to fight for every second you are trying with all your might to get away with Jesus.  You see, Satan understand the value and power of a day.   If Satan can keep you focused on tomorrow, next week and as far away a year, then he has won a great victory of your loss. Each day that you are given on this earth you will never live again. With the setting sun, so goes that day forever in the written annals of heaven there forever. There is so much happening in the world today like no generation has ever seen. Satan has people running from one thing to another trying to keep up with tomorrow. Then when tomorrow comes, they have in a sense already lived it, and they are seeking for tomorrow again. All the while the day is spent in folly, rudderless searching, and over-investment in world news. The hours add up to days, and the days add up to weeks, into years of forsaken time.   Then when the pureness, and richness of the eternal word is spoken they nibble on it like a snack, then run back into the carnival of this world. Like Jesus said, "The Son of Man must go as it is written of Him." In like manner, the nations and governments will go as it is written of Him as well. Be careful what you are spending your day in, what you are giving your thought life over to or it will swallow you up. Remember that you are given a day at a time to live. Live in each day as if it were your last. How would you want to be remembered? How would you conduct yourself? What would you do or not do? So much is lost living in tomorrow. Abide in Christ on a daily basis, and let Him be your Great Shepherd. You will experience so much and grow like the cedars in Lebanon, or as the Lilies of His valleys. "Today IF you will hear His voice..." listen to Him. "The day is thine, the night also is thine" the Psalmist wrote. That means your days are His days, and you belong to Him today, tomorrow and  into the "Perfect Day" of eternity.  Contact:  Website: https://www.joaniestahl.com/  Email: jsfieldnotes@gmail.com

 Joanie Stahls Field Notes You Tube Channel:  https://www.youtube.com/c/joaniestahl As we are headed in the closing minutes of the church age, there has been an explosion of dreams, visions, and words of prophecy.  When in times past only a scattered few had dreams of the end of the age. The onslaught of millions of people having prophetic dreams has caused confusion, chaos and infighting.  There is a real danger happening.  Multitudes of people are being led astray, throwing all their believing power on one persons dream after another. They run from dream to dream, from vision to vision, like a thrill rides at an amusement park. This causes great instability. There are real dreams, visions and prophetic words out there as well. This is the time to be conservative, discerning like never before!
