Heed to warnings or face disasters

Jeremiah 18:18-22
18 Then said they, Come, and let us devise devices against Jeremiah;
for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the
wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let us smite him with
the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.
19 Give heed to me, O LORD, and hearken to the voice of them that
contend with me.
20 Shall evil be recompensed for good? for they have digged a pit for
my soul. Remember that I stood before thee to speak good for them, and
to turn away thy wrath from them.
21 Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out
their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved
of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death;
let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.
22 Let a cry be heard from their houses, when thou shalt bring a
troop suddenly upon them: for they have digged a pit to take me, and
hid snares for my feet.

In the Bible history we read the phrase when maximum problems were
faced by the people was when there were many Men of God among His
people. We read these Men of God gave warning to the people to which
they did not heed.

In today's time too if one looks around with their spiritual eyes
amongst us are truly Men and Women of God who have been sent to warn
people. People are used to hear 'all is good', 'all is fine', they
have been told the grace will take care of everything and they can
continue their way of life they need not change their ways.

It is these 'bridge preachers' (they bridge the Kingdom of God with
the world) whom people like to hear and whom they lift up. God is
dealing with them (the second message 2 days back was regarding them).
And when people come across a person who tells them change or face
disasters they think this person is not from God but from the devil.
They mistake the word 'good' in 'God is good' to be good according to
their thinking and their desires. Meaning they can do everything that
Satan leads them to and God will still say 'my good child'.

Dear people please wake up, what you see happening around is just the
start of the disasters which are already written in the Bible. Your
and my changing does not mean that these disasters will stop. What is
written cannot be stopped. But written are also the words that 'thou
hurt not the oil and the wine'. This means the disciples and the
anointed ones will not be harmed.

These disasters are caused by beasts of the earth and by powers of
death but they too abide by the authority of God and God has
restricted them from hurting His true children and His special ones.
It is now your choice to stand among the world or to stand among the
wine and oil. Bring change in your way of life and hear what the Lord
is speaking to you and be saved.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, Your Word is alive and living and it will not turn back without
doing what It is sent to. Lord, we thank You for those You have sent
among us to warn us for You love us and do not want to see us perish.
You made us not for vanity but to prosper in You. Lord, harden not the
hearts of those who are stiff-necked but bring change in them and turn
their way unto your way the only way - Jesus Christ...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Revelation 6:5-8
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say,
Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on
him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure
of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and
see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the
fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him
was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them
over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with
hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Jeremiah 6:9-17
9 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, They shall throughly glean the
remnant of Israel as a vine: turn back thine hand as a grapegatherer
into the baskets.
10 To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear?
behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold,
the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in
it.
11 Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with
holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the
assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife
shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days.
12 And their houses shall be turned unto others, with their fields
and wives together: for I will stretch out my hand upon the
inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD.
13 For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every
one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the
priest every one dealeth falsely.
14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people
slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they
were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they
shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they
shall be cast down, saith the LORD.
16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for
the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall
find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the
trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.

Receive the kingdom of God as a little child

Luke 18:17 - Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the
kingdom of God like a little child shall in no wise enter therein.

The Lord says that unless we receive the Kingdom of God like a little
child we shall not enter it. Kingdom of God does not necessary mean
only Heaven.

We can be in the Kingdom of God here on earth itself and that means
being in the will of God, the glory of God with His presence being
manifested around us.

To be in this relationship with the Lord we need to be approaching His
Kingdom like a child. That does not mean to be a little child but says
'LIKE a little child' also not childish.

We need to understand the Kingdom of God is only for Sons meaning
those who mature in the knowledge and understanding of God and have
His image (the fruits of the Holy Spirit) in them. Yet the approach to
the Kingdom should be like a little child.

For this we need to understand the childlike properties which the Lord
is talking of and I list some of them:-

A child has a trust relationship with its parents and we too should
have that relation with our God for He is Al-Shaddai - Strong Breasted
One - He is our Father and Mother and all capable.

A child depends on its parents for protection and provision - we too
need to understand whatever we do bears result and fruit only because
Him. He is our provider and He uses people as vessels to give our
provision.

For a child its parents need to be always in its eyesight and anytime
they are not visible it panics and cries and calls out for them - we
should have experience of the spiritual presence of God always in our
life and if we do not see the manifestation of His presences around us
it is time to panic and start crying and calling out for Him.

There are many such properties we will find if we meditate on it.

Let us thus, while maturing in the knowledge and understanding of the
Kingdom of God, also approach it like a little child.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are Almighty and Omnipotent. You are our Creator, Provider
and Protector. All things come from You and nothing can happen without
You. We are in your Hands and You are in control of everything around
and about us. You know our past, our present and even our future is
not hidden from You. Lord, we surrender to You and to your will, build
us Lord and keep us close to You...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
John 1:10-13
10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world
knew him not.
11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the
sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor
of the will of man, but of God.

Romans 8:18-19
18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not
worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature [creation] waiteth for
the manifestation of the sons of God.

1 John 3:1-2
1 Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that
we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us
not, because it knew him not.
2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear
what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be
like him; for we shall see him as he is.

Post  Admin Sat 12 Mar 2011, 2:49 pm

The West will take Hamath

Ezekiel 47: 20 - The west side also shall be the great sea from the
border, till a man come over against Hamath. This is the west side.
(to be read along with Jeremiah 48:35-38)

Today's message was difficult for me when I received Ezekiel 47:20 and
I had to ask the Lord to give me another message in context of the
same so that I get to what the Lord wants to say to us today and I was
given Jeremiah 48:35-38.

There were 2 different messages that were hitting me and I could not
know what the Lord wanted me to put so even though from morning I had
almost had my mail ready yet I did not send it, waiting for
confirmation, so I am putting one among them which is to do with the
current situation...

This message is to do with the happenings in the Middle East and the
message talks of what the Lord is going to do to the Arabs of the
Middle East.

The Arabs had the blessing of the Lord on them since long therefore
prosperity was there at their doorstep but now the Lord is saying that
He would make them bald meaning the His grace which is upon them will
be taken away.

Hamath was one of the principle cities, which principally was a
trading center for the Arabs. Today the Lord says their main trade
will no longer be with them and the west would take it from them. As
we know the most principle asset of the Arabs is oil / gas.

There is going to be immense sorrow and trouble in the land of the
Arabs for they have run out on the grace of the Lord. The Lord hates
their worshipping their various gods. Muslims tell you they only
worship one god but this god is not God but many gods are there in
their so called god and it can be catch not in their words but in the
things connected with their religion.

This message is not a news update for us Christians but an alert that
the Lord is actively working in this world and He is doing things.
People toke Him for granted and even put has dumb statues which are
helpless. Our God is not dumb, nor helpless; He sees all and knows
all. He can see in the hearts of man and nothing is hidden from Him.
The time is come He is taking action to things He tolerated since
decades so please wake up and change before it is late.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are God and nothing is hidden from You. You know our every
thought and all that we speak and do in the dark. Darkness is not dark
enough to hid things from You. Lord, we pray for your sheep which are
still among the Muslims and especially the Arabs let them come to know
You and turn to You before it is too late. Send your Messengers and
let your Message reach their hearts...

This we pray in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Jeremiah 48:35-38
35 Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab[means of their father],
saith the LORD, him that offereth in the high places, and him that
burneth incense to his gods.
36 Therefore mine heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and mine
heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kirheres: because the
riches that he hath gotten are perished.
37 For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipped: upon all
the hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loins sackcloth.
38 There shall be lamentation generally upon all the housetops of
Moab, and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel
wherein is no pleasure, saith the LORD.

Genesis 17:19-20
19 And God said, Sarah thy wife shall bear thee a son indeed; and
thou shalt call his name Isaac: and I will establish my covenant with
him for an everlasting covenant, and with his seed after him.
20 And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him,
and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve
princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation.

Post  Admin Thu 10 Mar 2011, 2:19 pm

The Son shall make you free

John 8: 36 - If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

Temptation and spiritual bondages is the greatest killer of mankind.
Diseases kill the physical body but these kill the spirit and soul
(inner-man).

Temptation will always be there as far as we live in this world
wherein Satan rules over many people's lives. As we are children in
the Lord, initial growing stage of spiritual life Paul advices us not
to fight or resist temptation but to flee from it. It is better to
keep away from situations which will lead us to be tempted.

But this is not the permanent solution for Jesus tells us it is the
son who shall set us free perpetually. Does that mean if I have an
addiction to smoking by praying to Jesus I will be set free
permanently?

Thus is where many will get disappointed for experience tells us that
many over a period tend to return to their addiction. Does that mean
we cannot come out of bondages?

For that we need to follow what Jesus tells us today. In today's
message Jesus tells us only the son shall. This English word will and
shall are used with specific purpose.

In Simple Future tense SHALL is used with WE otherwise WILL is used.

In Simple conjugation, the expressions I will work, and we will work,
have the meaning I am determined to work, and we are determined to
work. In contrast, the expressions you shall work, and they shall
work, for instance, have the meaning you will be compelled to work,
and they will be compelled to work.

So we see by the use of SHALL either the Lord will do it along with us
or the Lord will make us to do it.

This will only happen when we have the Truth in us. A person who knows
black from white will never make a mistake but only one who lives in
grey area will make mistakes.

When we come into Jesus we need to be rooted in Him and the only way
to be rooted in Him is by Faith and firm Faith required the knowledge
of the Truth.

Jesus gave us authority in His Name over spirits and weaknesses. To
use authority one has to mature and not small children are allowed to
use authority, so let grow in Truth and Fruit(s) of the Lord so that
we be sons and have authority over temptations and bondages.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are Light and now that we are in You, You become the Light
in us. Lord, You are the Word that came in flesh to guide us and
reveal the Father to us, for You alone have seen Him. You came to give
us authority in your Name over all things that could harm and destroy
your people. Lord, help us grow in You, in your Name so that we crush
the powers of darkness by just a word from our mouth...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Matthew 10:28
28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill
the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and
body in hell.

John 8:34-35
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one
that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin.
35 And the bondservant abideth not in the house for ever: the son
abideth for ever.

1 Corinthians 6:18
18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body;
but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

1 Corinthians 10:14
14 Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.

1 Timothy 6:9-11
9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and
into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction
and perdition.
10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some
coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves
through with many sorrows.
11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after
righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

2 Timothy 2:22
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith,
charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

James 4:7
7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will
flee from you.

Luke 9:1
1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power
and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

Shall not the Earthquake for this

Amos 8:8 - Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn
that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it
shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.

Just a couple of days back a sister sent me a mail which had some very
interesting data on disasters I am attaching the contents of it below.

In today's message the Lord Who is slow to anger has been holding on
from ages and ages for man to change and come back to Him but He sees
man is hardening his heart more and more. God's eyes are not on the
people of the world but focused on His people, especially on those who
are refusing to change and turn back to Him which is angering Him.

They have made prosperity, enjoyment, comfort, socialization,
secularization, pleasures as their gods and are worshiping them. They
may take the Name of Jesus but are far from Him.

No doubt there will be physical manifestation of what He has declared
but more effect of this will be sensed in the personal life of these
people.

The Lord says He will make the sun go down at noon and make the earth
dark in broad day light. The sun represents the grace of Son of God
Jesus Christ and at the most important time of reaping these people
will experience gloom.

Of late I have had a few subscribers from my domain who have been
there from long and now unsubscribed. I am not sad they left but happy
for till now my words were not doing their job but now I can sense
they are working. They may bring good or bad results but they are
working and we will see change. Surely I am praying for them and
hoping for the best.

People of God, wake up it is the greatest time of creation, it is noon
time. Open our eyes and see the things that the Lord is doing
throughout the world. Go out and reach out to His people who are far
from Him, this is the harvest time. You need not travel the world but
you can surely testify for your God to people you work with, you
travel with, you socialize with.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, we pray for your people the real Israel whom You are bringing
back into their Home Land. Lord the time has come and is at hand that
this world is going to know that You are not sleeping, nor blind, nor
are your hands tied. Lord, we ask You to intervene into the lives of
your people who are far from You, especially those close to us. Do as
You will, but break their stone hearts and save them from
destruction. ..

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Amos 8:9-13
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I
will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in
the clear day:
10 And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into
lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and
baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an
only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
11 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:
12 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.
13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men [those are
spiritually immature] faint for thirst.

************ ******** mail ************ ********

This is truly interesting and very much eye opening.

Earthquakes - Read Haggai 2:6

Coincidence? Or merely picking the "right" natural catastrophes, even
if they were the largest and most disastrous in the last few
centuries? Or is God really trying to remind us of what has been
foretold in the scriptures?
Haggai 2:6 goes on to say:

"I will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come,
and I will fill this house with glory.
Coincidences? Interesting!

The Hebraic numerical value of the Hebrew letters of God's Holy name:
YHVH is 26! Something to think about! This matches your Haggai 2:6
reference perfectly! He is shaking the nations especially the nations
where pagan worship or worship of false gods is prevalent! In His
mercy and grace He'll shake some to save many! Blessed be His Name!
Shalom Aleichem!

Take a look at this list too.

Gujarat India earthquake 26 Jan 2001
The Rhodes earthquake 26 June 1926
Taiwan earthquake 26 April 2010
Japan earthquake 26 Feb 2010
NE Japan earthquake 26 May 2003
NE Japan earthquake 26 July 2003
North America earthquake 26 Jan 1700
Yugoslav earthquake 26 July 1963
Just got the following from Indonesia and I have translated it for you all:
Aceh Tsunami 26 Dec 2004
Jogjakarta earthquake 26 May 2006
Tasik earthquake 26 June 2010
Mentawai Tsunami 26 Oct 2010
Merapi volcanic eruption 26 Oct 2010

OTHER HISTORICAL disasters:

Krakatau volcanic eruption 26 Aug 1883 ( 36,000 dead )
China earthquake 26 July 1976 ( 255,000 dead )
Portugal earthquake 26 Jan 1951 ( 30,000 dead )
Kansu , China earthquake 26 Dec 1932 ( 70,000 dead )
Turkey earthquake 26 Dec 1939 ( 41,000 dead )
Sabah Tidal waves 26 Dec 1996 ( 1,000 dead )
Bam , Iran earthquake 26 Dec 2003 ( 60,000 dead )

Why is it always “26 “? Read Haggai 2:6 --- For thus says the Lord of
hosts: "Once more (it is a little while)
I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land"

AND NOW DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU ABOUT 26/11 (Mumbai Terrorist attacks on
Taj Mahal Hotel in 2008 AND 26/7 Mumbai Floods in 2005

EVERY 26 MAKES ME THINK AND PRAY,

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO, THE LORD IS WATCHING
WE ARE NOT HUMAN BEINGS GOING THROUGH A TEMPORARY SPIRITUAL
EXPERIENCE. WE ARE SPIRITUAL BEINGS GOING THROUGH A TEMPORARY HUMAN
EXPERIENCE

Correction Jezebel was not the mother but wife of King Ahab...

Children of Jezebel will have her share

2 Kings 9:37 - And the carcase of Jezebel shall be as dung upon the
face of the field in the portion of Jezreel; so that they shall not
say, This is Jezebel.

The name Jezebel in Hebrew means 'wife of Baal'. As you know Baal in
Hebrew means lord but is the term used for the false god which is
Satan. Thus the name states as wife of god and thus she is called the
'queen of heaven'.

Jezebel was the name of a character from the Bible who was daughter of
the king of Tyre. The name Tyre (pebbles) was used for Satan who has
become god for the people of this world, so she has another title as
'daughter of god'.

She was the high priestess of the people at that time who worshiped
idols along with the God of Israel. That made her the 'main
intercessor' for her people.

She was the mother of the king of Israel King Ahab. She was instrument
in killing all the Men of God during the rule of Ahab. During that
time Obadiah hid a hundred Men of God in two caves and fed them
through her rein in the same way the Lord did to His real Church
during the 1260 years of rule of the RC Church. It was exactly after
1260 years of Pope been crowned King that the revival of the Church
started.

Her prophets were also known as prophets of the groves which had idols
of Ashtoreth like the RC Church has groves / grottos of the same
goddess in the form of Mary, Fatima etc...

During her time she would have her 400 priests sit with her at the
dining table like Jesus sat with His disciples. Pagan history has that
she too would break bread at the table with her followers but instead
of bread she would use unleavened wafer.

She died when she was thrown to the ground from the window of her
castle and was tramped under the feet of the horse which had a rider
on it. The faith of its entity in the New Testament is the same for it
is the Rider of the White Horse Who’s Name is the Word of God will
tramp it under It’s feet.

No man touched her body and the dogs ate leaving her head, her arms
and her legs. In the New Testament the New Babylon has the same
destiny as revealed in Revelation.

The letter to the 3rd Church in Revelation which represents the
renewed Catholic Church (which came out of the dark era) has warning
about the doctrine of Jezebel. The Lord clearly shows He is against
Jezebel and her practices of idolatry and receiving sacrifices offered
to idols. The Lord also clearly says that He gives her time to repent
and change from her ways. It is this grace window which the Lord gives
it that this Church says in the proof that it is God’s Church since it
survived that long.

The message has been very clear of late that this grace window is
getting over and this will manifest in the events of this world like
it did during the rule of Babylon when the Lord wrote on the wall.

In the letter to this Church the Lord says He will make her to bow
down and will put all those who follow her into great tribulation
unless they repent of the sins they committed in her and change their
hearts and the works of their hearts.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You alone are God and Jesus alone is the way unto You. Satan
hates your people and wants to destroy them so deceives them in every
way possible and the most difficult one to detect when he comes as an
angel of light. Lord, it is your Word and by your Spirit that we can
discern Satan and his works. Open the eyes of your people and change
their hearts that those who are victims of his deceit way forsaken him
by repenting from his ways and come back to you...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Revelation 2:18-29
18 And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things
saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and
his feet are like fine brass;
19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy
patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.
20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou
sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to
teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat
things sacrificed unto idols.
21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery
with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches
shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I
will give unto every one of you according to your works.
24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have
not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as
they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
25 But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.
26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him
will I give power over the nations:
27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a
potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my
Father.
28 And I will give him the morning star.
29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Revelation 12:5-6
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with
a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his
throne.
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place
prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two
hundred and threescore days [1260].

Deuteronomy 12:1-4
1 These are the statutes and judgments, which ye shall observe to do
in the land, which the LORD God of thy fathers giveth thee to possess
it, all the days that ye live upon the earth.
2 Ye shall utterly destroy all the places, wherein the nations which
ye shall possess served their gods, upon the high mountains, and upon
the hills, and under every green tree:
3 And ye shall overthrow their altars, and break their pillars, and
burn their groves [grottos] with fire; and ye shall hew down the
graven images of their gods, and destroy the names of them out of that
place.
4 Ye shall not do so unto the LORD your God.

The mighty man shall cry there bitterly

Zephaniah 1:14 - The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and
hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man
shall cry there bitterly.

Since past few years we have seen certain horses from the spiritual
world march out into our world and these were the 3rd and the 4th
horses as given in Revelation chapter 6.

Revelation 6:5-8
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say,
Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on
him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure
of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and
see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the
fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him
was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them
over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with
hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

The Bible talks of these horses come but do not talk of their period
of going back so they can overlap each other.

The 3rd horse has started the period which we see started the prices
of food to go very high. In some time these prices will skyrocket if
one has one’s eyes and ears to the things that are happening around
the world. The most important areas of food production are facing
famines; we also have other things which are aggravating this
situation like political problems in Middle-East which started due to
food price rise has now caused the fuel prices to go high and in turn
increased the prices of food.

At the same time since 3 to 4 years we are seeing the earth and nature
behaving crazy. We hear of volcanoes dormant for many years are
suddenly all becoming active one after another. We hear of faults in
the earth plates also showing activities more frequent and causing
earthquakes. The craziest among the news is of animals dying
mysteriously in very large numbers in different parts of the world
very frequently. These are signs of the coming of the pale horse which
is the 4th horse. This horse as written would cause almost 1/4 of the
population of the earth to die.

It is after the coming of this horse comes (that is any time now
onwards), comes the period in which the Lord revenges the souls of His
saints which were killed by the Church which calls itself the
Universal Church of God - the RC Church.

Revelation 6:9-11
9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the
souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the
testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy
and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell
on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said
unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their
fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they
were, should be fulfilled.

People do not know that the maximum number of Christians have been
killed by none other than the Catholic Church. Even the Muslims and
the Jews together may not match this number.

If I am not wrong (which I hope I am) the things which the Jewish
people experienced at the hands of the Germans may not match what this
Church will experience in the hands of the Lord.

This day in the Bible has been spoken a lot about and has been called
as the Day of the Lord's Revenge. It is not the end of the world but
for this false Church it almost will be.

Being aware of the seriousness of the calamity and how it will unfold
I have been trying hard to get my brothers and sisters in Christ who
are still in this Church to be saved from this wrath of God.

There are people who have approached me even knowing what I speak is
right asking me as to why I cannot keep quiet like them. I am
passionate for God and His people. Even if one Man of God is killed it
pains me and I lift my hands to the Lord for His judgment.

If one reads the following scriptures of today's message and the
reference scriptures it will give a clear idea of what is set in store
for the people of this Church.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, we pray for the sheep which are among the goats that their
hearts be moved and their eyes opened. Like you did with Saul and made
him Paul and You did with this humble servant do with the many which
are still there. Deliver them also from the hands of the Beast and
from Jezebel who they spiritually fornicate with...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Zephaniah 1:14-18
14 The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth
greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall
cry there bitterly.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day
of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day
of clouds and thick darkness,
16 A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and
against the high towers.
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like
blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood
shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them
in the day of the LORD’S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured
by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance
of all them that dwell in the land.

Ezekiel 16:46-57
46 And thine elder sister is Samaria [Jewish Church], she and her
daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that
dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom [RC Church] and her daughters.
47 Yet hast thou not walked after their ways, nor done after their
abominations: but, as if that were a very little thing, thou wast
corrupted more than they in all thy ways.
48 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she
nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters.
49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness
of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters,
neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me:
therefore I took them away as I saw good.
51 Neither hath Samaria committed half of thy sins; but thou hast
multiplied thine abominations more than they, and hast justified thy
sisters in all thine abominations which thou hast done.
52 Thou also, which hast judged thy sisters, bear thine own shame for
thy sins that thou hast committed more abominable than they: they are
more righteous than thou: yea, be thou confounded also, and bear thy
shame, in that thou hast justified thy sisters.
53 When I shall bring again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom
and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters,
then will I bring again the captivity of thy captives in the midst of
them:
54 That thou mayest bear thine own shame, and mayest be confounded in
all that thou hast done, in that thou art a comfort unto them.
55 When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their
former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their
former estate, then thou and thy daughters shall return to your former
estate.
56 For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of
thy pride,
57 Before thy wickedness was discovered, as at the time of thy
reproach of the daughters of Syria, and all that are round about her,
the daughters of the Philistines, which despise thee round about.
58 Thou hast borne thy lewdness and thine abominations, saith the LORD.
59 For thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even deal with thee as thou
hast done, which hast despised the oath in breaking the covenant.

He that has is given more; he that has not from him what he has is taken!

Mark 4:25 - For he that has, to him shall be given: and he that has
not, from him shall be taken even that which he has.

This scripture is quiet surprising and to normal man it would seem illogical.

A person who has is given more and a person who does not have from him
what he has is taken. If he has not then what is taken? If he has then
why he has not?

It is only when we get into the grammar of this sentence would one understand.

There are 3 'has' and what we need to study is the grammatical
property - TVM (Tense, Voice, Mood) of these words.

Mark 4:25 - For he that has, to him shall be given: and he that has
not, from him shall be taken even that which he has.

The TVM of first has (to whom is given) is Present, Active, Subjunctive
The TVM of second has (who has not) is Present, Active, Indicative
The TVM of third has (which is taken from the 2nd has) is Present,
Active, Indicative

In the TVM we see that the difference is in the Mood.

Definitions of the Mood:-

Mood - Subjunctive
The subjunctive mood is the mood of possibility and potentiality. The
action described may or may not occur, depending upon circumstances.
Conditional sentences of the third class ("ean" + the subjunctive) are
all of this type, as well as many commands following conditional
purpose clauses, such as those beginning with "hina."

Mood - Indicative
The indicative mood is a simple statement of fact. If an action
really occurs or has occurred or will occur, it will be rendered in
the indicative mood.

This thing that the person has which we are talking of is the
knowledge and understanding or revelation of the Kingdom of God. This
scripture is continual to the previous statement which Jesus made
warning as what one receive through one's ears. A person who receives
the Knowledge of the Kingdom of Heaven, more will be given unto him.

So what we see is that the first person does not know for sure if he
has or not or the quantity or what he has but yet he tries to use
whatever he has, such a person the Lord says is given more.

The second person thinks he does not have or have sufficient so he
does not use it and such a person the Lord says would be put into more
confusion for that which he has would be taken away.

God has given each and every one who He has called His children the
required understanding to know Him and to grow in that understanding.
It is only when we use what we received, then only would we be given
more and more. Thus just hearing the Word of God and not using it will
not help you but may land you in more confusion.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You speak to your people through your Word and through your
people. As your Spirit reveals the Word unto us help us Lord to use It
in so that we receive more of your Kingdom. Give us more and more
boldness to stand on your Word and wisdom to use It effectively. ..

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Mark 4:24
24 And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure
ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear [listen]
shall more be given.

Matthew 25:14-30
14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far
country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his
goods.
15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another
one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway
took his journey.
16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with
the same, and made them other five talents.
17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.
18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid
his lord's money.
19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth
with them.
20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other
five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents:
behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant:
thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over
many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou
deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other
talents beside them.
23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou
hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many
things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I
knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown,
and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo,
there thou hast that is thine.
26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful
servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where
I have not strawed:
27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers,
and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.
28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which
hath ten talents.
29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have
abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that
which he hath.
30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there
shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Value the real diamonds more than your life

Daniel 10:18, 19 - Then there came again and touched me one like the
appearance of a man, and he strengthened me, And said, O man greatly
beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And
when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened, and said, Let my lord
speak; for thou hast strengthened me.

Daniel was meditating on certain scriptures of Jeremiah and the Lord
revealed their understanding to him in dreams. Daniel was shown things
concerning the last days and was trembling with fright. It was at this
time the Lord appeared to him as an Angel in a vision and touched him
and strengthened him giving him the courage to boldly speak what he
was shown.

The things that I speak today a few years back I would have never
dreamed that I would have courage to speak them. It all started with
one situation in my life which was my turning point.

About 4-5 years back all was good since (more than 1 year) I came into
the Lord and for a long time the Lord was revealing many a scriptures
to me in dreams like He did to Daniel as I was writing for the website
wherein I teach the Word (in SavedByFaith. info I give only the Gospel
- an intro to the Word rarely touching the depth of the Word). All
these revelations were the precious diamonds I collected (they were
shown to me in the form of tears having not one but three sources /
tips on the top).

I have a brother in law who also does the Lord's work and I used to
give high respect to everything he spoke, (he had/has a very gentle
approach) he was quiet knowledgeable of the Bible for he had gone to
be a priest and left at the last moment for his faith was broken with
what they taught in the seminary (in theology and behavior).

One night I received a dream in which the Lord warned me not to listen
to him for if I did I would lose all those precious diamonds I held,
this was when I was overnight at his place. In the morning itself we
were talking over a cup of tea and discussion something related to the
Word and I did not accept it but confronted him. From that moment
things changed for me, people and their attitude towards me changed,
oppositions came from all directions. The worst was from my own mother
who is a very important person in my life and who also is strongly
rooted in the Catholic belief (like my brother-in-law) . My family and
my own life were on the verge of destruction but I valued those
diamonds more than my life and faced each and every thing that was
thrown at me. Every day was a great testimony and I passed every storm
very boldly.

When the Truth is in us and when we have the knowledge of who we are
in the Lord, we will have courage to speak and stand against
situations like we would have never imagined.

I am nobody in this world and yet I hold the boldness to speak against
an institution which literally runs a part of this world. I only know
one thing when I speak in anointing, things happen and the Lord
manifests His power. He has never disappointed me and I know He will
never in the future as far as I am with Him.

The most difficult, challenging moments in my life were when I was
told to confront people who were spiritual leaders, priests or
anointed people well known among Christians. I have even been called
mad even on my face by a few of them but over time God has shaken
quite a many of them and have bought them out of their corruption.

When you are rooted in the Truth it becomes very easy to do things the
world would consider insane. Having quite a clear view of the timeline
of the events ahead as given in scriptures it gives great courage and
direction on what to say and when.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are Almighty and You alone are God. You created everything
and all things are by You. Without You nothing can exist and nothing
in all Heaven even those hidden in the dark has power against You.
Nothing is hidden from You and You can see things which no one has yet
seen. You are beyond words and no language can describe You. Only a
circumcised heart can come before You and experience your glory. Lord,
give us the courage to hold on to the knowledge of the Truth, of Who
You are who we are in You...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Daniel 10:4-7
4 And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by
the side of the great river, which is Hiddekel;
5 Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man
clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz:
6 His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of
lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet
like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the
voice of a multitude.
7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me
saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they
fled to hide themselves.

Matthew 6:19-21
19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and
rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth
nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor
steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

Matthew 13:44-46
44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field;
the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth
and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking
goodly pearls:
46 Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all
that he had, and bought it.

2 Corinthians 4:6-11
6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath
shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory
of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency
of the power may be of God, and not of us.
8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are
perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;
10 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.
11 For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake,
that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal
flesh.

Philippians 1:16-21
16 The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to
add affliction to my bonds:
17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.
18 What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in
truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will
rejoice.
19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your
prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
20 According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I
shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also
Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by
death.
21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

Is Peter the Rock which the Church is built on?

Matthew 16:16-19
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of
the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon
Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my
Father which is in heaven.
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock
I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail
against it.
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and
whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and
whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

First thing one needs to get in one's mind is Simon Barjona [means son
of Jona] was not named Peter by Jesus but even before Jesus met him
people used to call him Peter. It was his nick name (surname as
written in Mark).

The name Peter is actually a bad name or a mocking name for it is
another name for Satan. The word Peter means pebble and the Hebrew
equivalent of it is Tyre / Tyrus names given to Satan the Dragon
(king) (one who is bonded in Hell and will be released in the last
days and who has powers) and Satan the Beast (prince) (one who is with
us and does not have powers over people of God but only with the
people of this world) in Ezekiel.

There is no doubt that Simon was selected to lead the Apostles but he
was neither the Rock nor the head (Pope) of the Church. He was the
chief coordinator since he was an Apostle and chosen by Jesus to lead
the other Apostles. His selection was confirmed in the tomb when he
picked the gown of Jesus which was lying on the floor.

The Greek word translated as Peter is 'Petros' while the word used for
Rock is 'Petra'.

When I went to the session of the Catholic evangelist Steve Ray, he
tried to cover up this fact by taking the grammatical gender of the
words. He said since the word Petra was feminine therefore (he said
this while mocking with actions like that of a pansy) it was not
appropriate for Peter and thus Jesus used the name Peter.

He did not know that he was mocking the Holy Spirit for the word Petra
is used to the Holy Spirit and the Hebrew word 'Ruwach' for Spirit
also is feminine. It does not mean the Spirit of God is feminine but
shows the role the Holy Spirit plays in the salvation of mankind like
that of a Mother. This is the reason God the Son called Him His Mother
in the Songs of Solomon. It is the Holy Spirit Who is the Rock on
which the Church is build. It is He who nurtures the Church like a
mother does to its child.

Satan from the start does not want man to have a relationship with the
Holy Spirit and therefore has always been taking the female form of
different goddesses like Ashtoreth, Ishtar, Diana, Moon goddess, Queen
of Heaven and now as Mother Mary, Fatima, Lady of Lourdes, Lady of
Success, Mother of God, Perpetual Succor, Black Mary, Lady of Dollar,
Lady of Guadalupe, Lady of Mount Carmel, Ever Virgin, Advocate of Eve,
Immaculate, Star of the Sea, Madonna etc...

Jesus therefore said unless we are baptized (total surrender) to the
Father and then the Son we will not know or have relationship with the
Spirit of God. Most people get lost on the second stage of total
surrender to Jesus Christ. They do not make Him their true Lord, King,
Corner Stone, Master and Brother.

It was great when Simon who was called a Devil by the people was
selected to be a very important person in the Church of God.

Another fact about the key of Heaven been given to Simon - the word
Jesus used for 'thee' or 'you' is one with is used in plural tense,
therefore Jesus gave the Key to all His disciples and today when we
know Who Jesus us from the testimonies and revelations of others or
from the Holy Spirit, we too receive the Key to Heaven.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord Jesus, You came as man to be the Corner Stone of the Temple. As
Christ You are the Head of this Church and as God you are the cause of
this Church. Holy Spirit it is by You that the Church is founded on
the Truth. You are the Father and Mother of this Church. Holy Spirit,
by the grace we receive in Jesus Christ, help us open our eyes and
know You and have a relationship with You...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Matthew 4:18
18 And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon
called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for
they were fishers.

Mark 3:16
16 And Simon he surnamed Peter;

Luke 5:1-11
1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear
the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,
2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone
out of them, and were washing their nets.
3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed
him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down,
and taught the people out of the ship.
4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into
the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.
5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the
night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let
down the net.
6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of
fishes: and their net brake.
7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other
ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled
both the ships, so that they began to sink.
8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying,
Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.
9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught
of the fishes which they had taken:
10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were
partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from
henceforth thou shalt catch men.
11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all,
and followed him.

Deuteronomy 32:3-4
3 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness
unto our God.
4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment:
a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.

Psalms 18:30-36
30 As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he
is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
31 For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God?
32 It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
33 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places.
34 He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.
35 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right
hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great.
36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip.

Genesis 1:2
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the
face of the deep. And the Spirit [noun gender feminine] of God moved
upon the face of the waters.

mother! when I should find thee without, I would kiss thee; yea, I

Challenging time require strong steps

Mark 4:39 - And he awoke, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea,
Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

Firstly people do not know me and one person I met who receives my
message thought there was a whole team or ministry which sends the
daily messages. I am an ordinary person like anyone else and may be
sitting beside you in a train or bus, or walking down the street with
you and you will not know me.

My benefit is that you become strong in the Lord and one day lead
others into His Kingdom.

I have been sending daily mails since nearly 3 years and what I am
sending today was known to me even at that time. If I wanted I could
have sent these mails even at that time, but like I keep saying my
words and my wisdom may please people but doing according to God
instruction can only bring change.

God's time works according to the heart of a person and He knows whose
heart will change or not. His word reaches the heart of those who
desire Him at the right time and those who are stiff neck or stubborn
in heart He hardens them further and sets them to their destruction.

In India just 2 days back we had the Annual Budget and there were not
many changes in the budget. People were neither very happy nor
disappointed. Common man was pleased looking at it, but those who
really know economics were disappointed. They did not see any reforms
pushing ahead. They know there is going to be hard times ahead and for
the country to be strong then, now is the right time to take strong
steps even if it hurts us somewhat.

When they put this question to the Finance Minister, he simple told
them since his government did not enjoy total majority in the
Parliament and depended on alliance his hands were tied.

God is not in a minority nor is His Hands tied. He knows the times
ahead are going to be difficult and therefore He is asking of us to
make strong changes in our spiritual life so that we will sail
smoothly during those times.

God's love and my love for you has not changed but grown and out of
true concern, the things that were hidden are exposed at the right
time so that they do not lead to your destruction.

In today's message Jesus rebuked the wind and we see it obeyed and was
silenced.

In that part of the sea it was an odd wind, Jesus was asleep in one
boat and there were other boats along. The waves were getting bigger
and the water had filled the boat. Had they not woken up Jesus, by
normal understanding the boats could have capsized. Therefore Jesus
first took the step of rebuking the wind and then He asked them if
they did not have faith.

What faith did Jesus talk of them and is asking of us today?

Faith to know that the Lord is there with us therefore nothing will
harm us. Faith that in the right time God will take action against the
powers which come against us and show He is God and we are His loved
ones.

I have seen many people know the Truth but do not want to come out
from their pagan way of life due to social fears and real stupid
reasons.

Some of them are like, what will happen to their body when they die,
will people bury them, if so where? When they have children where will
they baptize them? How do they get married and where? Who will issue
birth certificates? What will they do on Sundays? Will they receive
communion or just bread?

Like the priest rightly asked the couple to give him a letter stating
they would not require any service from the RC church. What they were
getting was nothing to do with God but municipal services with a
religious face.

For municipal services the government is there, so let us not mix
spiritual things with municipal things.

It is all these rituals and traditions which have been like iron
chains around the legs of people. God has opened the prison door and
given us the power to break all kind of chains which hold us down.
Have faith and walk through the prison door and the chains will break
by themselves.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, Your people are far from You and cannot see You. They trust man
more than they trust You. They call themselves by your Name but they
do not truly know your Name since they do not know You. Lord, reveal
to this world that You alone are God and no powers can stand before
You. All knees will bow and all tongues will confess You are God.
Lord, the chains of bondage are very great for some of our brothers
and sisters. We ask you to shower abundant grace on them and may your
favor be on them...

We make this prayer in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Mark 4:35-40
35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let
us pass over unto the other side.
36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as
he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the
ship, so that it was now full.
38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and
they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we
perish?
39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace,
be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye
have no faith?

Come out, your graven images cannot save you

Isaiah 45:19,20 - I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the
earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the
LORD speak righteousness, I declare things that are right. Assemble
yourselves and come; draw near together, ye that are escaped of the
nations: they have no knowledge that set up the wood of their graven
image, and pray unto a god that cannot save.

Some of the Catholics who received my yesterdays and previous messages
on the same topic got offended. They expect me to send only nice
messages which do not bring change in a person. They wanted me to be a
doctor who gives a chocolate and not medicine to a patient who has
deep infection just to keep the patient happy. That infection will one
day spread and kill that person.

The Lord too did not hide anything right from the start. He knew of
the deceit even before He created this world, but He also knew The Way
would save His people. He states in His message for us today to those
who are willing to listen, He did not create you and me in vanity to
perish.

A brother responded to my mail asking do not the Catholics and
Christians worship the same God.

Even though the Catholics worship the same God yet they also worship
other gods like the Israelites did during the time of Jezebel (King
Ahab). The Catholic Church is making them do all the things which God
said not to. This will get them to be put along with the goats on the
Judgment Day to suffer and perish even worse than what non-believers
would, just what Satan plans for them.

Today the Lord is calling all among them to put away your graven
images and worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth. It is only by His
Word and His Spirit that we can know Him and come to Him so as to
receive eternal life.

Whatever I spoke in my mails was told to the people of God even by the
early Men of God in the Old Testament and also in the New Testament by
Jesus Christ, by the Apostles and by other Men of God.

It is very simple - do you want God or your graven images? Your graven
images do not exist in truth and will not save you. Satan has deceived
you in thinking they exist.

Simeon while holding 8 day old baby Jesus in his arms spoke about
Jesus' mission and at the same time also spoke to Mary about how after
her death her name would be misused to expose the hearts of many.

Let us not harden our hearts with these graven images and let us heed
to the warning which the Lord has been giving us since ancient and let
us turn back to Him.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, Your Word is Light unto our path and lamp unto our feet. Lord,
without your Word we would be in darkness and prey to the deceiver who
is out to destroy us by bring us into your wrath. Lord, we pray that
the hearts of those who are deceived by the evil one would not harden
and their eyes are opened to see You and know You...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Isaiah 45:21-22
21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together:
who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that
time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just
God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.
22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am
God, and there is none else.

Luke 2:34-35
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold,
this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and
for a sign which shall be spoken against;
35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the
thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.

Matthew 25:29-46
29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have
abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that
which he hath.
30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there
shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy
angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall
separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from
the goats:
33 And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye
blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the world:
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye
gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we
thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto
you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my
brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me,
ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his
angels:
42 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and
ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me
not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an
hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison,
and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch
as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the
righteous into life eternal.

(The scripture does not talk only of physical shelter, clothing, food
and water but their spiritual symbolization also, for Jesus send us to
give eyes to the spiritually blind, set the spiritual captives free,
the spiritually naked to be clothed in the righteousness of Jesus
etc..)

Multitude of kings and idols of Satan

Amos 5:25,26 - Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the
wilderness forty years, O house of Israel? But ye have borne the
tabernacle [multitude] of your Moloch [kings] and Chiun [pillar
symbolizing promises] your images [idols], the star of your god, which
ye made to yourselves.

A family close to me who were previously in the Catholic Church had
come out of that Church and started attending service at a Believer
Church. The wife is well rooted in the Word (having a calling of a
Teacher) used to be active in that Church (Zonal Leader) along with
her husband who was previously a Hindu and started believing in Jesus
Christ and today is very strong rooted in the Lord changing the lives
of many around him also having a calling in his life.

When they stopped attending the Catholic Masses and attending their
Rosaries and other such activities and kept talking about the Bible,
people around them started getting suspicious. Someone among them
tracked them to a New Life (Pentecostal) Church and spoke to their
Parish Priest. The Priest called them to confront them. They did call
me before meeting the Priest and I encouraged them to be bold and
speak the Truth without fear and gave them tips on how Jesus
confronted the Pharisees and Sadducees.

The Priest was new in that Parish and not knowing all the work this
couple had done in that Church before just bluntly questioned them
about leaving this Church which they said yes. He then asked them to
give them a letter stating that they have left this Church and would
not need any service from it. He indirectly intimated them about
influencing the other Catholics around them.

When people from this Church came to know about me leaving this Church
the Zonal leader alone with someone came to confront me also. Like
Jesus tackled the questions of the Pharisees and Sadducees I
confronted them with their traditions. I took one topic about idols
and what the Bible says about it. By God's grace I got them
questioning this area and they committed to me to bring the Priest who
they feel is well knowledgeable in the Bible to meet me so that they
would know what is right or wrong. I am eagerly waiting for that
Priest to come.

Even after seeing scriptures from the Bible most Catholics like people
from their elder sister Church - the Jewish Church will refuse to
believe it. The Old Testament is full of prophesies of the Savior and
were all fulfilled in Jesus Christ but they will refuse to accept it,
all because of their kings and idols. They have made their Rabbis as
kings like the Catholics have made the Priests. Even God is over ruled
on the word of their Priest. These 2 sister Churches with their kings
and idols (what the Jews do with David and his star - that is the
reason God hide the body of Moses and also the Ark of Covenant - which
was last historically recorded as lost in the desert when transported
in a caravan, none of the caravan were found alive).

They live on not the Promises of God but on the (false) promises of
their kings and their idols. Someday I like to take each of the false
promises of their goddess Ashtoreth who comes as Mother Mary, Fatima
etc. and compare them with the Word. They also have another idol
Sister Faustina who also is one of their gods. What she says in the
name of Jesus over rules what Jesus said in the Bible i.e. the Divine
Mercy prayer (promise of salvation on reciting it at 3pm) is also a
deceit to spiritually kill the children of God. I remember a brother
(when I too was in this Church and believed all this rubbish) who had
great faith in the Divine Mercy prayer (now he too is a Believer) went
for a deliverance case and used this prayer; the person (a girl) under
the influence of the evil spirit beat him and another brother so badly
that they will never forget it. The room was locked and they were
running in circles and the girl chasing them with whatever she would
get in her hands.

It was only when I understood the meaning of the water gushing out of
the side of Jesus with the books of Moses that I caught the deceit of
the Devine Mercy and knew it was not from the Lord.

The Divine Mercy photographs may have the image of Jesus but the
message they give is not from the Lord but from the Devil. Salvation
does not come from reciting or chanting words but from believing in
Jesus Christ and walking in the Word of God (being led by the Spirit
of God).

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, the people wanted a human King even when You were with them and
even manifested your glory around them. You came a man and king for
there was none worthy to lead your people. Even then they forsake You
and still make man as their kings. Without You leading them they
fallen prey to the deceit of Satan and have idols as their gods and
You as one among them. Like You brought down the head of the false god
in the Sanctuary bring down the heads of these gods and kings with
your Sword - Your Word...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Exodus 20:4-6
4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of
any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or
that is in the water under the earth:
5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the
LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers
upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that
hate me;
6 And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my
commandments.

Zechariah 5:5-11
5 Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me,
Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth.
6 And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah that goeth
forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the
earth.
7 And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead: and this is a
woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah.
8 And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of
the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
9 Then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came out
two women, and the wind was in their wings; for they had wings like
the wings of a stork: and they lifted up the ephah between the earth
and the heaven.
10 Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these
bear the ephah?
11 And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar:
and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base.

Ezekiel 23:1-4
1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:
3 And they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in
their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised
the teats of their virginity.
4 And the names of them were Aholah the elder, and Aholibah her
sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and daughters. Thus
were their names; Samaria is Aholah, and Jerusalem Aholibah.

Whom say ye that I am?

Matthew 16:15 - He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

This is one question when asked every Christian will jump putting they
hand up to answer but yet there will be no Christian who will be able
to give the full answer. Even after having a personal disclosure of
Revelations from the Lord yet today I know that there is a lot more to
know about Jesus and Who He is. Some of the things which I have been
revealed of Him is beyond comprehension and shows how great He is and
is His sacrifice, His love. One of these I tried to share with a
brother who was quiet Word rooted yet was not able to receive so
stumbled at it.

God reveals Himself to us as we prepare our hearts to receive Him.
What is interesting is where Jesus asked this question?

The scriptures states in was on the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, this
place was famous for a temple dedicated to the Greek god Pan. Herod
had build a great marble temple for this god even though he had also
build the second temple for the Jews (which was again brought down in
70AD) in which the man who's hand was crushed (stone mason's hand /
withered hand Matt 12:10) by the Jewish High Priest for working on a
Sabbath day on the temple and at who's wall the Jews today worship.

In this place was a huge (still is) stone grotto from within which a
giant spring originated. This spring previously indirectly but now
directly feeds the Jordan River. This grotto was previously dedicated
to Baal-Hermon but later during the Greek rule became a place
dedicated to Pan. Grottos right from the beginning (from Genesis) were
associated with Satan and his idols which were worshipped as gods by
the heathens. Even though worldly the gods were changed with regards
to this place but spiritually no change happened for both gods were
associated with the underground and are the same. Next to the huge
cave in the rock were niches where idols were placed just like the
Catholic Church does specifically with their Mother Mary (goddess
Ashtoreth) and their saints. In this cave human sacrifices were
offered and still today spiritually people are killed by grottos which
are replica of this temple of Pan having goddess Ashtoreth in them.

Jesus travelled a long way to stand before this rock temple so as to
ask this question. You can now visualize Jesus standing before this
huge rock temple and asking this question 'who do you say that I am?'

Now you have a choice to look at this rock temple (grotto) in the
background or look at Jesus Christ who is the Head of the true Temple,
of whom the Church is part of and in whom was the Spirit of God in
fullness - the Spirit Who is the Rock on which the Church is build.
Peter did not look at the rock temple but at Jesus and so the Spirit
of God revealed to him a property of Who Jesus was.

But later Peter took pride in been the one through whom the revelation
came and thus became prey to Satan to deny the dead and resurrection
of Jesus. Peter's rebuking did not stop there but went further for he
went through a spiritual rollercoaster ride with again a high for
being one of the only three to be chosen to witness the
Transfiguration of Jesus. This led to another rebuke when he spoke
before hand about Jesus paying temple tax so Jesus sent him to fetch a
fish from the sea from which mouth he found a gold coin to be paid as
tax. History records this event in detail and it will just amaze you
at what humiliation Peter went through to get that gold coin and how
he again became a hero among the disciples.

It is only proper preparation of our hearts and right focus of our
eyes that we will be revealed Who Jesus is. And as we come to know
more of Him it shakes our lose foundations and high places and bring
them to level with His Will - His Word.

Even today there is lot, lot more to know about Jesus and as we come
to know more of Him we will become stronger inside and have more
authority in His Name.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are God and man cannot ever comprehend to know You. You
desire that your children know You so You came as man Jesus in Whom
your image existed. When man Adam sinned this image died in us and as
we come to know You this image is born again in us. Lord, by your
Spirit of Truth Whom we received through Jesus Christ prepare our
hearts and train our eyes to be focused on You and so to know You. It
is only by the knowledge of You that we have authority in your Name...

This prayer we make in your Mighty Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Matthew 16:13-15
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his
disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some,
Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

Matthew 12:10-14
10 And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they
asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they
might accuse him.
11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that
shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day,
will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful
to do well on the sabbath days.
13 Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he
stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
14 Then the Pharisees went out, and held a council against him, how
they might destroy him.

Matthew 16:21-23
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how
that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders
and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the
third day.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far
from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan:
thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be
of God, but those that be of men.

Matthew 17:1-6
1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother,
and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,
2 And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the
sun, and his raiment was white as the light.
3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us
to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for
thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.
5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and
behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son,
in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were
sore afraid.

Matthew 17:24-27
24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute
money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus
prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings
of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of
strangers?
26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are
the children free.
27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea,
and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when
thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that
take, and give unto them for me and thee.

I will utterly consume everything

Zephaniah 1:2-6
2 "I will utterly consume everything from the face of the land," Says
the LORD;
3 "I will consume man and beast; I will consume the birds of the
heavens, The fish of the sea, And the stumbling blocks along with the
wicked. I will cut off man from the face of the land," Says the LORD.
4 "I will stretch out My hand against Judah, And against all the
inhabitants of Jerusalem. I will cut off every trace of Baal from this
place, The names of the idolatrous priests with the pagan priests-
5 Those who worship the host of heaven on the housetops; Those who
worship and swear oaths by the LORD, But who also swear by Milcom;
6 Those who have turned back from following the LORD, And have not
sought the LORD, nor inquired of Him."

Before I get to today's message one of the most challenging area of
Bible study is how to understand prophesies and how to apply them.
Prophesies are basically things that the Lord will do or will allow to
be done, so these are grammatically verbs thus can be understood by
the grammar of the 3 languages in which the Bible is written that is
Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek.

Let me go in the reverse order the Greek language grammar has what is
known as TVM - Tone, Voice and Mood. When the Lord taught me this, He
showed them to me as instructions for the body, soul (inner man) and
spirit respectively. So if one takes any scripture and goes into the
grammar and applies this rule to it one would easily write a book like
Paul just on one scripture.

The Hebrew and Aramaic language on the other hand has only two
properties and thus are instructions either to body and soul or soul
and spirit. The New Testament is written in Greek because the Word
(promise) was made flesh and whole instructions were completed (3).

It is because of this reason most prophesies are just not related to a
specific event but more than one event. Like the fall of Jerusalem as
warned by Jesus in Matthew 24 was prophesied by Jeremiah and explained
by Daniel, was not only connected to the physical Jerusalem in 70AD
but is also connected to the false Church in the last days (there are
2 Hebrew Jerusalem words one refers to the false church and the other
the true church).

Therefore all scriptures have a message and even though the message is
one, it speaks to each heart given us answers according to our hearts.

In today's message the Lord Prophesizes that He would consume many
earthly things even though these will be physically manifested the
greater things is the spiritual factor of what each earthly thing
means or represents.

So what we will see is a revival of the Church for all things that not
of spiritual foundation and not of the Lord will be shaken and bought
down and people who say they speak for the Lord when in reality they
have not sought the Lord will be exposed and bought down.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, there are many shepherds who walk in the flesh more than in the
Spirit. They do not lead your sheep to green pastures but to poison
junkyards. Lord, we thank You for the change You are bringing in the
Church and among your people. Let your glory be seen among your people
and let them know that You indeed are God and You alone are God and
You are not asleep but know all things even those which are hidden...

We make this prayer in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Matthew 24:14-25
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole
world for a testimony unto all the nations; and then shall the end
come.
15 When therefore ye see the abomination of desolation, which was
spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let
him that readeth understand),
16 then let them that are in Judaea flee unto the mountains:
17 let him that is on the housetop not go down to take out things
that are in his house:
18 and let him that is in the field not return back to take his cloak.
19 But woe unto them that are with child and to them that give suck
in those days!
20 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on a sabbath:
21 for then shall be great tribulation, such as hath not been from
the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been
saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is the Christ, or,
Here; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall
show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even
the elect.
25 Behold, I have told you beforehand.

Micah 1:2-9
2 Hear, all ye people; hearken, O earth, and all that therein is: and
let the Lord GOD be witness against you, the Lord from his holy
temple.
3 For, behold, the LORD cometh forth out of his place, and will come
down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
4 And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the valleys shall
be cleft, as wax before the fire, and as the waters that are poured
down a steep place.
5 For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the
house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? is it not
Samaria? and what are the high places of Judah? are they not
Jerusalem?
6 Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field, and as
plantings of a vineyard: and I will pour down the stones thereof into
the valley, and I will discover the foundations thereof.
7 And all the graven images thereof shall be beaten to pieces, and
all the hires thereof shall be burned with the fire, and all the idols
thereof will I lay desolate: for she gathered it of the hire of an
harlot, and they shall return to the hire of an harlot.
8 Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and naked: I
will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as the owls.
9 For her wound is incurable; for it is come unto Judah; he is come
unto the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.

Matthew the Levi and the Gospel of Matthew

In the Gospels there was one of the 12 disciples - the 12 Apostles
whose name was Matthew and in the gospels of Mark and Luke also named
as Levi. Matthew means 'gift of Jehovah' and he was a tax collector by
profession, in Mark and Luke he is referred as Levi which means
'joined' name of one of the tribes of Israel. Matthew the Apostle was
the son of Alphaeus. The last record of him is in Acts when all
gathered together in the upper room he too was present.

The Gospel of Matthew is considered to be written by him but there has
been questions raised by some Biblical scholars since ages about this,
because the records of the Gospels of Matthew and Mark are dependent
on each other and the Gospel of Matthew fails as to be records of a
person who was witness to the events.

When the Lord was teaching me He pointed me to one particular record
of a man who dwell among the tombs with a legion of spirits and was
delivered by Jesus; in the Gospel of Matthew it has been wrongly
recorded as 2 persons. Had this Gospel been written by Matthew the
Apostle it would not have had this error. When I sat with the Lord and
questioned why an open, blunt error like this exists in the Bible and
then the Lord opened my mind and taught me the seven fold callings in
the Body of Christ. Had it not been for this intentional error it
would have been difficult to explain the 7 callings, for the Church
believes in a fivefold calling.

By the style of the writing and the text it is not a writing of an
Apostle but that of a Teacher. It was by this error I was revealed the
two types among the calling of a Teacher, one as a Historical Teacher
and the other as a Spiritual Teacher, one proves the scriptures and
the other reveals the scriptures. Matthew who wrote the Gospel was a
Historical Teacher he went through records and spoke to witnesses to
document the Gospel. The two types of Teacher callings are also
confirmed in the dress of the High Priest in the books of Moses and
also in the image of God in which man is made.

The dating of this Gospel was somewhere between 30 AD and 70 AD going
by the fact the fall of Jerusalem is not mentioned in the Gospel.
There are historic records of this Matthew being a Gentile-Jew from
Antioch while Matthew the Apostle was a Levi.

As to the depth the Lord has taken me in the scriptures this scripture
of the man being delivered from a legion of spirits and another
scripture about 12/24 elders in Heaven are which I have found open
errors put with purpose to reveal the hidden understanding of the
Lord's Kingdom. Even though these exist yet the Word of God is without
error and that a person who understands the books and the Image of
Christ in us will understand. Therefore no human mind can comprehend
the depth and dimension in which this Holy Book is written.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, we thank You for your Word which is instructions to our
salvation, to be back together with You and to be glorified in You.
Lord, your wisdom is beyond the comprehension of man and his
imagination. Your Kingdom is something no man would ever understand
had it not been for your Word, manifestation of the Word and your
Spirit. Holy Spirit, we pray You open the minds of your people and
reveal to them how wonderful your Word and your Kingdom is...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Matthew 9:9-12
9 And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew,
sitting at the receipt of custom: and he saith unto him, Follow me.
And he arose, and followed him.
10 And it came to pass, as Jesus sat at meat in the house, behold,
many publicans and sinners came and sat down with him and his
disciples.
11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said unto his disciples, Why
eateth your Master with publicans and sinners?
12 But when Jesus heard that, he said unto them, They that be whole
need not a physician, but they that are sick.

Mark 2:13-14
13 And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude
resorted unto him, and he taught them.
14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at
the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and
followed him.

Luke 5:27-31
27 And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named
Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow
me.
28 And he left all, rose up, and followed him.
29 And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a
great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.
30 But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples,
saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners?
31 And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a
physician; but they that are sick.

Acts 1:12-13
12 Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet,
which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day’s journey.
13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where
abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas,
Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon
Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

Mark 5:2
2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out
of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,

Luke 8:27
27 And when he went forth to land, there met him out of the city a
certain man, which had devils long time, and ware no clothes, neither
abode in any house, but in the tombs.

Matthew 8:28
28 And when he was come to the other side into the country of the
Gergesenes, there met him two possessed with devils, coming out of the
tombs, exceeding fierce, so that no man might pass by that way.

The House of Ashtaroth

1 Samuel 31:10 - And they put his armor in the house of the Ashtaroth;
and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth-shan.

Ashtaroth was the center of the temple of goddess Ashtoreth. Ashtoreth
was a goddess worshiped by the Philistines, the Zidonians and
Phenicians. This same goddess was later worshiped even by the
Israelites and was called by them as the Queen of Heaven.

Today this same goddess is still worshiped by Christians especially
the Catholics and she has come in the deceptive form saying she is the
mother of Jesus and will lead us to Jesus. But when you scrutinize her
words with the Bible one would find she speaks against what Jesus
preached and which the Lord said through His Prophets. There is a very
nice documentary titled 'Message from Heaven' which deals with each
official Catholic Church accepted statements of this goddess in the
forms as Fatima, Mother Mary, Queen of Heaven, Perpetual Succour etc.

Ashtaroth is not limited to the Catholics only but even the Believer
Churches have not totally come out from the deceit of this image which
the beast (Prince of Tyrus) has put into the lives of Christians
because he desires people to worship him as god. Many Christian
celebrations have been infected or distorted by this spirit since the
coming of the Catholic Church and still continues. For example
Resurrection Sunday was changed into Easter Sunday after this goddess
Ashtar / Ashtoreth for even the Romans used to worship this goddess on
the same day. So thus the real message of resurrection of Jesus got
replaced with cross buns, eggs and bunnies etc. which were associated
with this goddess.

It is written in the Bible in the last days when the Catholic Church
starts to repent from its ways, just then the chief Anti-Christ will
come and killing the last Pope will become Pope. The Anti-Christ with
his knowledge of dark powers will make this image to manifest in the
flesh and those who do not worship it will be put to death.

Previously I too was in the trap of this goddess when I was in the
Catholic Church but when the Lord revealed to me the deceit and the
depth of its infection throughout that Church, I came out of it.

Talk to a Catholic about the Bible and the first question they ask 'do
you believe in Mother Mary?' They call themselves her children not
knowing that she / it is against Jesus and that they are calling
themselves children of Satan the beast.

It is time to come out of this deceit and throw images and photos of
this goddess where it belongs - the dustbin. When I was a Catholic I
would not even dream of doing such a thing and would find it blasphemy
or insult to a mother son relation. But when I came into the knowledge
of the enemy in disguise there does not come even a thought across my
mind while doing this.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, we prayer for your sheep who are under the mark of the beast,
under the deceit of beast. Lord, let them know that You alone are
El-Shaddai our spiritual Father and Mother, our everything. We pray
the yoke be broken and their hearts not hardened and they come into
your Light...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Jeremiah 7:17-19
17 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the
streets of Jerusalem?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the
women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to
pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to
anger.
19 Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke
themselves to the confusion of their own faces?

Judges 2:12-15
12 And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them
out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the
people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and
provoked the LORD to anger.
13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.
14 And the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and he delivered
them into the hands of spoilers that spoiled them, and he sold them
into the hands of their enemies round about, so that they could not
any longer stand before their enemies.
15 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of the LORD was against them
for evil, as the LORD had said, and as the LORD had sworn unto them:
and they were greatly distressed.

1 Kings 11:5-8
5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and
after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6 And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully
after the LORD, as did David his father.
7 Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination
of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the
abomination of the children of Ammon.
8 And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense
and sacrificed unto their gods.

1 Samuel 7:3-10
3 And Samuel spake unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye do
return unto the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the strange
gods and Ashtaroth from among you, and prepare your hearts unto the
LORD, and serve him only: and he will deliver you out of the hand of
the Philistines.
4 Then the children of Israel did put away Baalim and Ashtaroth, and
served the LORD only.
5 And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I will pray for
you unto the LORD.
6 And they gathered together to Mizpeh, and drew water, and poured it
out before the LORD, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have
sinned against the LORD. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in
Mizpeh.
7 And when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel were
gathered together to Mizpeh, the lords of the Philistines went up
against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard it, they were
afraid of the Philistines.
8 And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto
the LORD our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the
Philistines.
9 And Samuel took a sucking lamb, and offered it for a burnt offering
wholly unto the LORD: and Samuel cried unto the LORD for Israel; and
the LORD heard him.
10 And as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines
drew near to battle against Israel: but the LORD thundered with a
great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them;
and they were smitten before Israel.

Worst than Sodom and Gomorrah

Matthew 10:14-15
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, as ye go
forth out of that house or that city, shake off the dust of your feet.
15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of
Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, than for that city.

Most people who visit the land of Israel are surely to go and take a
dip in the Dead Sea. This lake is very famous for its high density
such that people float on it. It is also very famous for having lots
of minerals which people claim to be good for the skin.

How did this happen for lakes are normally made of fresh water?

Archeologists have found out that the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah
were on the banks of this lake. The cities were destroyed by a very
sudden and unexpected great volcano which caused black volcanic salt
to cover all over it. Even today black tar like substance is found on
the banks on this lake. It was this volcanic salt which caused the
lake to become salty.

It is ironic that this judgment on these 2 cities which was once
famous for homosexuality and all kinds of diverse sexuality were
destroyed by the wrath of God is today cause of tourist attraction. I
doubt if people knew why the lake is salty and what happened on its
banks that they will go and enjoy it so much. It will surely cause
fear in their hearts and minds. It was not just a coincidental volcano
(nothing is coincidental) but one prophesied and the only people saved
from it were Lot and his daughters. Homosexuality is nothing but abuse
or mocking of the image in which man and women are made and this
causes great anger to the Lord.

Today His Word (Jesus Christ - Word made flesh) and Spirit (Both
manifest and glorify His true Image) are given unto us and those who
reject and mock His Word and Spirit anger Him even more.

In today's message the Lord is warning all those cities which reject
Him and His Spirit. People may say we have Christians among us but a
person calling oneself a Christian is not necessary one. I would say
blessed are you if you have a Lord's righteous dwelling amongst you.
You may face problems but they will not overwhelm you and you will be
saved from them. So either you prayer such are there amongst you or
strive to be one.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are Light and your light is goodness for all, but evil
blocks your light. Lord, You are Holy and sin brings wrath to You. It
is sin that kept us away from You. By the sacrifice of Jesus we are
protected by His righteousness. Lord, we pray for all those cities
wherein your sheep dwell but there are none that truly walk on your
path. We plead for your mercy and your grace on them...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Genesis 18:20-33
20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great,
and because their sin is very grievous;
21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether
according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will
know.
22 And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom:
but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.
23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the
righteous with the wicked?
24 Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou
also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are
therein?
25 That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the
righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the
wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do
right?
26 And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the
city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to
speak unto the Lord, which am but dust and ashes:
28 Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt
thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, If I find
there forty and five, I will not destroy it.
29 And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there
shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty’s
sake.
30 And he said unto him, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will
speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I
will not do it, if I find thirty there.
31 And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the
Lord: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I
will not destroy it for twenty's sake.
32 And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet
but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I
will not destroy it for ten's sake.
33 And the LORD went his way, as soon as he had left communing with
Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.

Genesis 19:1-13
1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate
of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed
himself with his face toward the ground;
2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your
servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall
rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will
abide in the street all night.
3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and
entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake
unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of
Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people
from every quarter:
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men
which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may
know them.
6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me,
I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in
your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they
under the shadow of my roof.
9 And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow
came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal
worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man,
even Lot, and came near to break the door.
10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to
them, and shut to the door.
11 And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with
blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to
find the door.
12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law,
and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city,
bring them out of this place:
13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen
great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to
destroy it.

Looking in the Mirror

Daniel 10:7-9
7 And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me
saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell upon them, so that they
fled to hide themselves.
8 Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there
remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into
corruption, and I retained no strength.
9 Yet heard I the voice of his words: and when I heard the voice of
his words, then was I in a deep sleep on my face, and my face toward
the ground.

When Daniel saw this vision was it a dream kind of vision?

It is written that the people with him could physically experience the
power of the 'vision' that Daniel was having and they ran away.

When Jesus ascended to Heaven it is written He went up in a cloud. Is
Heaven up? Up from USA or up from Australia? Do we not realize the
earth is round and our up is someone else's down?

The Hebrew word 'marah' used here for vision refers to a looking glass
or mirror.

A mirror is used to see the reflection of reality; it does not show
what does not exist but that which does.

What Daniel saw was not just a dream but a look at the spiritual
mirror. A spiritual shows the spirit world of which our creation is
part of. In the spirit world time is not like our earthly time so one
can see across time.

In the Bible there are prophesies which are specifically given as per
earthly time and there are prophesies which are given according to
spiritual time. To gauge earthly time the Lord has given us the stars,
the moon and all heavenly bodies for the whole universe which works
like a clock. To gauge spiritual time one cannot see the clock but can
see the results of the clock. Most of the scriptures in the Bible are
based on this spiritual clock.

But not to let spiritually growing man to be lost the Lord has given
us some hints of the spiritual clock with the earthly clock. Thus for
example the exact time of Jesus' second coming is not given in earthly
clock but with spiritual clock and therefore even though disclosed it
is still not known when. Thus to know it we need to see in the
spiritual mirror at the spiritual clock and it effects the fall of
events in this world.

When Jesus was asked the question 'when will the end come?' He did not
give a date but gave a series of events. Until all the events as per
prophesies are not fulfilled the coming of the end will not happen. So
to know things let us not look at our earthly clock but looking at the
unfolding of events as per prophesies.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, to save us You gave us your Word - the Book of Instructions.
Lord Jesus, as we eat your Flesh and break our bodies like You did for
the glory of God open our minds to understand your Word and thus
coming to know the Truth help us walk according to your Instructions
and return unto You...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Matthew 24:3-31
3 And as he sat on 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?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man lead
you astray.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and shall
lead many astray.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that ye be not
troubled: for these things must needs come to pass; but the end is not
yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;
and there shall be famines and earthquakes in divers places.
8 But all these things are the beginning of travail.
9 Then shall they deliver you up unto tribulation, and shall kill
you: and ye shall be hated of all the nations for my name’s sake.
10 And then shall many stumble, and shall deliver up one another, and
shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many astray.
12 And because iniquity shall be multiplied, the love of the many
shall wax cold.
13 But he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole
world for a testimony unto all the nations; and then shall the end
come.
15 When therefore ye see the abomination of desolation, which was
spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let
him that readeth understand),
16 then let them that are in Judaea flee unto the mountains:
17 let him that is on the housetop not go down to take out things
that are in his house:
18 and let him that is in the field not return back to take his cloak.
19 But woe unto them that are with child and to them that give suck
in those days!
20 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on a sabbath:
21 for then shall be great tribulation, such as hath not been from
the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been
saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is the Christ, or,
Here; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall
show great signs and wonders; so as to lead astray, if possible, even
the elect.
25 Behold, I have told you beforehand.
26 If therefore they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the
wilderness; go not forth: Behold, he is in the inner chambers; believe
it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh forth from the east, and is seen even
unto the west; so shall be the coming of the Son of man.
28 Wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29 But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun shall
be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars
shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 and then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and
then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the
Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And he shall send forth his angels with a great sound of a
trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds,
from one end of heaven to the other.

We are living in Prophetic Times

Isaiah 28:22 - Now therefore be ye not mockers [talk arrogantly], lest
your bands [yoke] be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord GOD
of hosts a consumption [termination / destruction] , even determined
upon the whole earth.

About a year ago (10-02-10) I had sent a mail warning about the
turmoil going to happen in the Middle-east specially with the Arabs
and again about 20 days back (06-02-11) this same message was repeated
with further details as to what extend and within what period this
will accomplish, I received nasty mails from Muslim evangelist /
followers and even Christians (secular mined). The last mail sent to
me even had historical study to show me that the scriptures I quoted
were already fulfilled and I was not talking sense.

If I too had to study it with my own wisdom I too would have responded
like them, but since I knew it was a message from the Lord I boldly
send it and within a short time of my mail things manifested in the
Middle-East.

The same was with my mail on food becoming very expensive, sicknesses,
earthquakes (including volcanoes) etc. stating the stages before the
main destructions (01-07-10) not to be mistaken with the end days.

Today's message is also on similar lines but not to the heathens
(people of other beliefs) but to our so called secular mined
Christians (including Catholics).

The days we are living in most people think are the end days and thus
are losing a lot. The days we are living in are start of a very
important period a long before the end days. In the Bible a lot is
written about this era by many of the Prophets. These are the times
when the limit which the Lord has set for the vanity of man has almost
reached and thus called the Day of the Lord's revenge. The Lord is now
starting to act on things He spoke about but refrained in His mercy.
But now that His abundant grace is available and His Spirit is being
poured out more and more, He expects change in us.

The Lord is not expecting us to be a perfect Christian, for no man
alone can be like Christ but in the end the collective balance sheets
of all His sheep will be like Him. This we will understand when we
understand why Paul in his early letters wrote about working for our
salvation with fear and trembling and in his last letter before he was
killed (2nd letter to Timothy) he speaks with confidence as if he had
already got a confirmed ticket in hand.

All that the Lord is asking of us as in today's message is that we do
not open our mouths and speak against His Word for He will harden our
hearts even further by increasing the yoke of bondages. In the days
ahead we are going to see destructions at magnitudes ever imagined and
yet through these destructions those who really hold unto the Lord
will pass through without even hurting their feet to a stone. We need
to open our hearts and minds unto His Word and even if we do not
understand let us not reject it but ask the Spirit of the Lord to
reveal it unto us.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You love us very dearly, but as our Father You do want to see us
eternally perish so You try to discipline us by chastising us. You are
gentle and would not do to your people more than what they can take.
Your grace is abundant on us and your Spirit is poured more and more
on us. Lord we pray that our hearts are not hardened and we keep a
hold on our tongue and show our faithlessness inside.

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
1 Corinthians 2:1-5
1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of
speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.
2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus
Christ, and him crucified.
3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's
wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the
power of God.

Philippians 2:12
12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my
presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own
salvation with fear and trembling.

2 Timothy 4:7-8
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which
the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to
me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

Matthew 24:4-13
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man lead you astray.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and shall
lead many astray.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that ye be not
troubled: for these things must needs come to pass; but the end is not
yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;
and there shall be famines and earthquakes in divers places.
8 But all these things are the beginning of travail.
9 Then shall they deliver you up unto tribulation, and shall kill
you: and ye shall be hated of all the nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many stumble, and shall deliver up one another, and
shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many astray.
12 And because iniquity shall be multiplied, the love of the many
shall wax cold.
13 But he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved.

Prayer Life

Daniel 6:9-10
9 Wherefore king Darius signed the writing and the interdict.
10 And when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his
house (now his windows were open in his chamber toward Jerusalem) and
he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave
thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.

In the Bible there are 3 people who are certified by the Lord as to be
righteous and among them was Daniel. It is not that the others were
not good people but the way of life of these 3 was more according to
the Word of God or Will of the Lord.

The things a basic Christian can learn from the life of Daniel is
prayer life, fasting, standing for the Truth, using wisdom of God in
this world, our relationship towards unbelievers etc...

As per today's message the Lord wants us to learn about our prayer
life from Daniel.

Prayer means communicating with the Lord and for a person who walks in
Spirit it is a 24x7 job. What we are discussing here is that time when
we have a close door exclusive time with the Lord (you do not
necessary need to be alone in a room but need to be alone mentally
with the Lord). This is a thumb rule and would not necessarily hold
for all people and even if holding for that person many not hold in
all situations. We are suppose to be led by the Spirit so when the
Lord does not instruct us we follow what is given.

The Lord has in the Bible through the Book of Moses by the
symbolization through the sacrifices gives us His basic expectation of
spending exclusive time with Him. This was what Daniel followed.

Prayer is a catalysis in the life of a Christian therefore very
necessary, but a Christian who only prays and does nothing else is not
a true Christian. He or she is like a vehicle with the best radial
wheels but no engine. Prayer life is the wheels of the car but the
witnessing life and mission life is the engine of the car, so both are
essential.

A person who sits whole day just praying and doing nothing else is not
a disciple of Christ. Thus when a person comes to me and says he or
she has a prayer ministry then I know that this person does not really
know Christ and lacks relationship with Him.

Daniel would at least sit thrice a day with the Lord and these three
sittings were not of long durations for we know that those who wanted
to catch him red handed doing this would wait.

Not going deep into scriptures here the Bible tells us to spend
minimum 15mins at least 3 times daily exclusive with the Lord and once
a week at least 3 hours (there are also times expectations for once a
month and a year these are there in my teaching on Prayer Part II
which I will load soon on my website SavedByFaith. info).

This prayer pattern was also seen in the life of Jesus as written in
the Gospels.

These time slots should not be the leftovers from our worldly life.
The Lord does not want our excreta He demands our first fruits. So
make sure our first time slot is the early morning slot before we
start our worldly routines.

Again I like to reiterate this is basic expectation a thumb rule for
every Christian and would wary for some people and also according to
situations in the life of a Christian (in computer terms written as
default value).

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, we are blessed to know You and to worship You as our Lord and
Master. We are humbled that You find it worthy to speak to this mere
human who is like an insect before You. Lord, You want us to make is
your Sons mature and strong. Help us grow in all areas and live life
according to your desire...

This prayer we make in Jesus’ Name, Amen.

[Reference Scriptures]
Ezekiel 14:13-20
13 Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing
grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break
the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will
cut off man and beast from it:
14 Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they
should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the
Lord GOD.
15 If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil
it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of
the beasts:
16 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD,
they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be
delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
17 Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through
the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
18 Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord GOD,
they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be
delivered themselves.
19 Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury
upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:
20 Though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live, saith the
Lord GOD, they shall deliver neither son nor daughter; they shall but
deliver their own souls by their righteousness.

Daniel 6:10-13
10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his
house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he
kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks
before his God, as he did aforetime.
11 Then these men assembled, and found Daniel praying and making
supplication before his God.
12 Then they came near, and spake before the king concerning the
king’s decree; Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that
shall ask a petition of any God or man within thirty days, save of
thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered
and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and
Persians, which altereth not.
13 Then answered they and said before the king, That Daniel, which is
of the children of the captivity of Judah, regardeth not thee, O king,
nor the decree that thou hast signed, but maketh his petition three
times a day.

Matthew 29:19-20
19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name
of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit:
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded
you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.
Amen.

Rewarding one self

Zephaniah 1:13 - Therefore their goods shall become a booty, and their
houses a desolation: they shall also build houses, but not inhabit
them; and they shall plant vineyards, but not drink the wine thereof.

Just in the morning as I was getting up from my bed, my wife and I
were discussing on the difference between the Church we were in and
what is happening with the leaders in many Believer Churches.

Go to a meeting held for Pastors or meet leaders of ministries and you
will find them rewarding themselves really well. Check out their
vehicles and the electronics at their houses and like many lay people
say it religion is good business.

What we see in the Catholic Church is the other extreme the Priest are
made to live physically like beggars (very mere wages are given as per
activity they do with something like fixed pocket money, but as you go
higher in the system their stomachs are well rewarded - ironically
most of them are mostly sick and cannot enjoy it although they greatly
crave for it).

Most Believer leaders (Pastors and Ministry leaders) believe in God
being a God of abundance. No doubt God does bless us but like I always
say if you have been blessed more, it means you need to get down more
often on your knees and pray longer and harder for you are been tested
more.

Understand the one word that is root in the life of a Christians is
OVERCOMER. Jesus Christ by His sacrifice saved us but things did not
stop there. He gave us His Spirit so that by the help of His Spirit we
become overcomers. The foundation of becoming an overcomer is
knowledge of the Truth. That is the reason why we receive first the
Spirit of Truth when we are baptized in Jesus Christ; He becomes the
Rock of our salvation and the Rock on which the Church is built.

Some days back a sister forwarded me a mail regarding some top
anointed Men and Women of God being removed from broadcast television
in USA. If one visits the websites of any of these persons and it is
like visiting an online mall running one the most complex sales and
marketing engines.

I do agree funds are needed to run ministries and churches but that
does not mean that one stands at the door with a bowl or pickpockets
the innocent.

The best way to learn as how to manage finances of a large
congregation can be learnt from Moses (who handed people in millions)
in the earlier Church and Paul (who handled many Churches across a
quarter of the world) from the new Church.

Jesus too showed us the way to handle finances in an excellent way in
His earthly life examples. He gave this charge to Judas. Jesus did not
run out of money for the group had always sufficient for them. Jesus
lived without physical luxury but yet wore one of the finest linen
robes any ordinary man could buy. It was not for comfort or luxury but
for purpose. Since we are not mature in Spirit like Jesus therefore I
will not take Him as an example.

We see in the life of Paul and Peter as example. Paul earned for his
provision as tent maker and Peter did take from the Church collection
but only for his basic needs. It depends on the grace one is in that
one can take that decision. None is better than the other.

Moses spent an extravagant amount on the Sanctuary but all was
according to instructions of the Lord. God did not instruct Moses so
as to show great and beautiful monument is associated with our God but
each and every item, even to smallest detail teaches us of the Kingdom
of God it was all with purpose.

The Catholic Church on the other also builds beautiful monuments with
a purpose to misguide the people and destroy their faith.

Finances of the Church and ministries are for building the Church -
the people. Leaders can take from it but it should be according to
need. They should remember that they need to control their fleshy
desires and not let money or power hit to their heads.

In today's message the Lord is telling us once again (this message was
given before also on 08 May 2010) as He is working on other this at
the same time He is going to search through His people with a candle
and those who have build castles for themselves will lose them.

[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You have made us in this world in the flesh so that we overcome
this flesh and become worthy to be your Sons. You knew it is not
possible for us to overcome by ourselves, so You by your sacrifice
gave us your Spirit to help us become overcomers. Lord, we pray for
all Church leaders especially that they are led by your Spirit and
they live a life according to your heart and your will. We rebuke and
bind their flesh and command their inner-man to return to You...

This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

Zephaniah 1
1 The word of the LORD which came unto Zephaniah the son of Cushi,
the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hizkiah, in the
days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah.
2 I will utterly consume all things from off the land, saith the LORD.
3 I will consume man and beast; I will consume the fowls of the
heaven, and the fishes of the sea, and the stumblingblocks with the
wicked; and I will cut off man from off the land, saith the LORD.
4 I will also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the
inhabitants of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from
this place, and the name of the Chemarims with the priests;
5 And them that worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and
them that worship and that swear by the LORD, and that swear by
Malcham;
6 And them that are turned back from the LORD; and those that have
not sought the LORD, nor enquired for him.
7 Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord GOD: for the day of the
LORD is at hand: for the LORD hath prepared a sacrifice, he hath bid
his guests.
8 And it shall come to pass in the day of the LORD'S sacrifice, that
I will punish the princes, and the king's children, and all such as
are clothed with strange apparel.
9 In the same day also will I punish all those that leap on the
threshold, which fill their masters' houses with violence and deceit.
10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that there
shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and an howling from
the second, and a great crashing from the hills.
11 Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, for all the merchant people are
cut down; all they that bear silver are cut off.
12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search
Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that are settled on their
lees: that say in their heart, The LORD will not do good, neither will
he do evil.
13 Therefore their goods shall become a booty, and their houses a
desolation: they shall also build houses, but not inhabit them; and
they shall plant vineyards, but not drink the wine thereof.
14 The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth
greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall
cry there bitterly.
15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day
of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day
of clouds and thick darkness,
16 A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and
against the high towers.
17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like
blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD: and their blood
shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung.
18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them
in the day of the LORD'S wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured
by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance
of all them that dwell in the land.

Joel 1:11-15
11 Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the
wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is
perished.
12 The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the
pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the
trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from
the sons of men.
13 Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the
altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for
the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house
of your God.
14 Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and
all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the LORD your God,
and cry unto the LORD,
15 Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a
destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

The Sermon on the Mount - the Attitude of a Christian
Matthew 5:1,2 - And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain:
and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his
mouth, and taught them, saying,
The Sermon on the Mount is one of the most powerful and extensive
teaching of Jesus wherein He used very less symbolization but chewed
the food and fed like mothers do to small infants.
The sermon was not for all people but for the disciples only therefore
Jesus drew them out of the crowd and taking them to the mount spoke to
them. By the amount of text which has been documented by Matthew who
used to follow Jesus, it seems there were there for a long time
segregated from the crowd.
The topics Jesus touched on were the Beatitudes which gave
encouragement for overcoming this world [Matt 5:3-12]. Then Jesus
touched upon salt and light which were to do preserving the goodness
and shining it unto those who are in darkness [Matt 5:13-20]. Later He
touched on personal relationships and how to respect ourselves and
others [Matt 5:21-48]. After this He spoke to them about attitude when
giving to the poor, standing before God and receiving from the Lord
[Matt 6:1-21]. Then He spoke about sanctification of the inner-man
[Matt 6:22-34]. The next area He spoke about was presumption and
respecting Holy things [Matt 7:1-6]. Then He spoke on our attitude
about receiving from God while giving the reality of the result and
the reality of God�s cannot be fooled [Matt 7:7-23]. And lastly He
ended with His role in the whole matter in building the perfect person
[Matt 7:24-27].
What we see from a bird's eye view of the Sermon on the Mount, it was
more about the attitude of a disciple than anything else. Jesus
touched every area of the attitude of discipleship on the Mount.
If we need to be a true disciple of Jesus or in other words a true
Christian the most important area other than our work we need to
concentrate upon is our attitude. The result is important but also
important for a Christian is the means. We can not one day stand
before God and say 'see Lord the number of people I made You known
too' or 'see all the great things I have done in your Name'. Like
Jesus said on the mount we will be given the boot if our attitude does
not project God. We need to project His goodness, His mercy, His
righteousness, His love, His patience, His tolerance, His perfectness
etc...
There are many people spreading the Gospel, serving the needy,
ministering to the sick, teaching the Bible etc. but how many of them
stand as true disciples?
We are not just soldiers; we are also servants, messengers,
ambassadors and royals.
[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You made us your children in your image. Lord as we bring your
light in this dark world let us also by projecting the true You in us
for this world does not know You. Lord, You are the potter, as You put
us on the spinning wheel by your gentle touch guide us and mold us
every day of our live. Speak to our hearts and strengthen our weak
areas...
This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

The Wine as the Blood
Luke 22:17,18 - And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take
this, and divide it among yourselves: For I say unto you, I will not
drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
Today I received the same scripture to share on and would like to
touch on the aspect of the wine as the Blood of Jesus Christ.
Firstly I want to make clear what Jesus and His disciples took was not
wine are what we know. In other words it was not fermented wine but
was fresh unfermented wine also called grape juice.
Grapes are one of the most important symbols of a Christian life and
Jesus showed us this through His life on earth. To understand this you
need to understand how good grapes are grown.
The grape plant being a vine does stand by its self so is supported
from a frame above it. The farmer makes a high frame and hangs the
vine by the frame. As the plant grows he tightens the ties thus bring
its closer to the frame, he takes the branches and by a string pulls
and ties it in all directions. He does not pull it too hard so as to
break it but lightly so as to enable the vine to spread in all
directions and hold more fruit.
Grapes are a watery fruit but are best grown in places where the
climate is a little extreme and lacking water. You will find the
sweetest grapes coming from these regions. People knowing to grow
grapes and wanting sweet grapes will never put extra water to the
plant else you land up getting watery but not so sweet grapes. Too
little water is also dangerous and will not result in fruits, only a
skilled husband will know according to the earth it is planted and the
climate.
Grapes represent self sacrifice or discipleship and the Husbandman of
the vine is Jesus' Father (Holy Spirit) who is a perfect farmer, and
He will make us to be like Jesus. So we need to depend totally on the
Holy Spirit standing only by His grace, reaching out to His people and
in the process bearing much fruit. Not asking for prosperity of this
world but living by the basic necessities, doing the Lord's work not
by our strength but by the power of the Holy Spirit.
When Jesus said this is my Blood poured out to you He meant His life
which was poured out to us for the first instance of the word blood in
Bible represents life (Genesis 4, 9). When we gather at the table of
the Lord and drink the wine (grape juice) representing His Blood we
are suppose to remember how Jesus sacrifices Himself for us, how He
lived a selfless life of holiness for our sake so that He would be
found without blemish by God the Father.
God gave life to us for the purpose to prosper us although He has the
right to take it away He is not interested to see us lacking life.
When man sinned and went far from God a blood offering was required so
as to symbolize man surrendering his life to God. Since man could not
offer his own life and still live therefore the life of an animal was
done as a symbol. Jesus became the sacrificial animal and was offered
on our behalf. This Blood became a covenant between God and man, a
covenant of grace. This does not mean the previous covenants do not
exist but all previous covenants are already in this New Covenant at
the same time grace has replaced the areas of judgment.
By using grape juice as the Blood Jesus did the perfect thing for us.
He not only stopped the killing of an animal or any living being once
for all since He was an eternal sacrifice but also showed us how we
can partake in His sacrifice by been sweet grapes and offering our
fruits as a sacrifice unto God.
[Prayer Starter]
Lord Jesus, we thank You for coming as man and being a perfect and
eternal sacrifice under which we can take refuge and come closer to
God. Lord God, You are giver of life and by being far from You we
cannot have life. Lord as we gather at your table and have the broken
bread representing your Body and the grape juice representing your
Blood, help us Lord to understand their meaning and implement them
into our lives so that we become part and recipients of the fruit of
your sacrifice...
This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.

Genesis 4:10-12
10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood
crieth unto me from the ground.
11 And now cursed art thou from the ground, which hath opened its

thee its strength; a fugitive and a wanderer shalt thou be in the
earth.
Genesis 9:4-6 [words in italics removed]

of every beast will I require it: and at the hand of man, even at the
hand of every man’s brother, will I require the life of man.

every branch that beareth fruit, he cleanseth it, that it may bear
more fruit.
3 Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you.
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of
itself, except it abide in the vine; so neither can ye, except ye
abide in me.
5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in
him, the same beareth much fruit: for apart from me ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is
withered; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they
are burned.
7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever ye
will, and it shall be done unto you.
8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; and so
shall ye be my disciples.

Locusts
Amos 7:1 - Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed unto me; and, behold, he
formed grasshoppers [locust] in the beginning of the shooting up of
the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's
mowings.
The locust has multiple meanings in scriptures. Before I get to
scriptures let me give a brief description to you about the creature.
The locust is an insect that is feared throughout history. It is a
cousin of the timid grasshopper looking alike in its solitary stage.
When the numbers of them increase it causes them to rub their hind
legs frequently and this simulates behavioral change in them taking a
gregarious stage. This is not only an inside change it also causes an
outside change; this insect changes its color and looks a complete
different insect. They group together hoping as nymphs and flying as
adults, moving like an army consuming all greenery especially young
plants eating equivalent to its weight each day traveling in the night
according to the wind. Half a square km call hold up to 30-40 million
and swarms can be of even a 1000 square kms thus having billions of
locusts. They lay eggs deep in the soil which can remain dormant over
long periods and sustain great levels of heat. The moment the climate
becomes suitable they hatch and come out. Some breeds of locusts grow
even to a length of 6inches.
In the book of Moses it has been shown as a curse of God to destroy
the harvest of this world. They were plaques sent by God to punish man
when man sinned greatly against God.
In the book of Joel and Amos they symbolize unbeliever population
which is overgrowing and over consuming so much that it starts to harm
creation and people of God. God maintains a control ratio between His
people and worldly people who are created like grass not having the
seed of faith in them to bear Fruit. In today's message the vision
shown to Prophet Amos uses this symbolization. The Lord is saying
enough to the number of unbelievers overflowing, He is going to do
something in this matter and soon we will see more believers than ever
before.
In spiritual sense locust symbolizes hurts. When the number of hurts
increases it causes the person to frequently think on it and thus
changes the behavior of the person not only from inside but also
externally. That person groups along with other people also nurturing
hurts like him or herself and together daily start to harm other
people spreading eggs of hurts in them. This hurting causing
generations and generations to start behaving like animals killing
people even at the cost of their own destruction.
The only ways to destroy these swarms of locusts is to spray
insecticide on them or on the vegetation they consume. Spraying of
insecticide in spiritual sense symbolizes using authority. Jesus gave
us authority not only to cast demons but also over weaknesses. A
person matured in faith and having authority can rebuke hurts and heal
people from inside. It sounds very simple but the problem is there are
very, very few Men or Women of God who have grown to the stage of
authority most are struggling between stages of faith and the borders
touching authority.
An easier and simple option which every child of God can do and has
proved very effective so much so that it has made a particular breed
of locust (Rocky Mountain locust) extinct is sustained cultivation.
Sustained cultivation in spiritual term means continual spiritual
productivity. One needs to be continual fruitful in spirit, this
causes all old wounds to be destroyed even without much knowledge.
Forget about doing wrong things even not doing any good in spiritual
sense may cause small hurts to one day pop up from nowhere and to
suddenly take a gregarious nature.
[Prayer Starter]
Lord, we thank You for You are a merciful God. You love your people
and do not let your anger to overflow and destroy them completely.
Lord, your people have been suffering since ages and the burden on
them has been growing. Today we look up to You and we know You in your
mercy have already started to answer our plead. We thank You that You
are sending among us people who are taught by You and who hold
authority in your Name...
This we declare in Jesus' Name, Amen.
[Reference Scriptures]
Exodus 10:13-15
13 And Moses stretched forth his rod over the land of Egypt, and the
LORD brought an east wind upon the land all that day, and all that
night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
14 And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested in
all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there
were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
15 For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was
darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit
of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any green
thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land
of Egypt.
Joel 1:3-4
3 Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their
children, and their children another generation.
4 That which the palmer-worm hath left hath the locust eaten; and
that which the locust hath left hath the canker-worm eaten; and that
which the canker-worm hath left hath the caterpillar eaten.
Joel 2:23-26
23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your
God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will
cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter
rain in the first month.
24 And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the fats shall overflow
with wine and oil.
25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten,
the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army
which I sent among you.
26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name
of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my
people shall never be ashamed.
Deuteronomy 28:42
42 All thy trees and the fruit of thy ground shall the locust possess.
Luke 9:1-2
1 And he called the twelve together, and gave them power and
authority over all demons, and to cure diseases [weaknesses] .
2 And he sent them forth to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the Kingdom of God shall come
Luke 22:17,18 - And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take
this, and divide it among yourselves: For I say unto you, I will not
drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
The Muslim believe after death a good man who has done his duties as a
Muslim would enter Firdaws (Paradise) or Janna (The Garden). A sure
shot to enter Janna is to convert a unbeliever or not convert then
take his or her life meaning killing a infidel (Kafir) assures a
ticket to Janna. Some of the special offerings of Janna is a lofty
mansion, a grand buffet and virgins called 'houris' to have physical
relationship with. Most of the Muslims read this from their scriptures
but do not believe or understand what they believe in (like most of
their other believes therefore I always say there are only 2 types of
Muslims either one who follows the Quran and becomes a fanatic for
jihad is a must to a Muslim or he is a confused Muslim - these are the
ones whom we call as good Muslim for they do not know or follow what
they believe).
This confusion is not only in Muslims it is also among Christians. We
also have the confused Christians among us who do not know what they
believe in therefore are void of the power of God in their lives.
Although the concept of salvation is confusing in the Quran yet there
is no confusion among the Muslims about what is written, but on the
other hand the Bible gives us a perfect and True information of
Salvation yet today if you put 5 Believers in a room, you will have 5
different understandings.
This confusion was not there in the early stages of the Believer
Churches but crept in latter to cause confusion and misled people.
Knowing that God is Spirit and the Heaven is a spiritual space yet
people imagine earthly things in Heaven. They are so much in the flesh
that they just cannot overcome the body or the world and either want
to take this world to Heaven or bring Heaven down to earth. To the
extend I once heard a very famous evangelist stating Heaven is a place
across the universe, that makes God an alien and this earth creation
their product - a belief of the Church of Scientology and many other
religions.
A Scientologist believes his salvation comes when the alien (superman
type being) who is trapped in earth is set free (in a mountain
somewhere and this is the greatest secret code between them revealed
under an oath only on finishing the 3rd or 4th stage of their
spiritual life; looks like someone gave them a comic book to be their
religious book!). Yet we have many so called famous people following
this religion with knowing what they are into nor and do most
scientologists know this. The irony is that this church exhibits a
huge crucifix on their structures.
It is only the controlling power of the leaders of so called religions
that hold their people back within their folds. On the other hand true
Christians are held together by powers of love and Truth, but the evil
one has managed to put his tail among us too.
In today's message Jesus said He would not drink the fruit of the vine
unless the coming of the Kingdom of God.
Confusion comes into man about this understanding because there are
places where Jesus said the Kingdom of God is at hand and at some
places as already here.
The word Kingdom comes from the word King and symbolizes rule or royal
power. Everything about creation or salvation is about man becoming
Prince of God (Israel) which means having authority. Like the prodigal
son who came back and was given a ring on his finger so also man when
he returns to God will be given a ring (white stone). A ring
symbolizes authority and not love which people assume. In the book of
Revelation it is put as white stone because such stones were used for
voting and symbolizes a citizen's right.
All about Christianity is about getting Sonship and once man comes
into fullness of this power God says it is sufficient and calls all
unto Him. Like bread symbolizes Manna which means understanding of
God’s Word, similarly grape juice symbolizes the product of all the
fruits of the Holy Spirit. For example patience is not a Fruit but is
a fruit salad to have patience one needs faith, slow to anger, love,
joy, meekness etc. To be like a grape vine one needs all the Fruits of
the Holy Spirit and grape juice is the product of it. At the end the
Word returns to God after completing its purpose and Christ receives
us with our complete Fruits.
It is only when we come into having authority in the Lord will the
Truth be very clear to us and we will have Jesus as a very part of us.
The secret into coming into authority is in carrying our CROSS like
the Israelites carried the Ark to close the river Jordan (which means
inheritance) .
[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You have called us to be your sons. You have given us an
inheritance in You when we come to You. Lord, let your people know
that they are not ordinary people but royal people having powers which
this world has never seen or ever imagined. You have given us a demo
of this with your transfiguration before Peter, John and James. Lord,
we pray that as we evangelize to the world we also concentrate on our
inner-man so that we complete the work within and become sons of
God...
This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.
[Reference Scriptures]
Luke 11:20
20 But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the
kingdom of God is come upon you.
Matthew 21:31-32
31 Which of the two did the will of his father? They say, The first.
Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, that the publicans and
the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye
believed him not; but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and
ye, when ye saw it, did not even repent yourselves afterward, that ye
might believe him.
Revelation 11:1-13
1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and one said, Rise,
and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship
therein.
2 And the court which is without the temple leave without, and
measure it not; for it hath been given unto the nations: and the holy
city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
3 And I will give unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a
thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4 These are the two olive trees and the two candlesticks, standing
before the Lord of the earth.
5 And if any man desireth to hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their
mouth and devoureth their enemies; and if any man shall desire to hurt
them, in this manner must he be killed.
6 These have the power to shut the heaven, that it rain not during
the days of their prophecy: and they have power over the waters to
turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with every plague, as
often as they shall desire.
7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that
cometh up out of the abyss shall make war with them, and overcome
them, and kill them.
8 And their dead bodies lie in the street of the great city, which
spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was
crucified.
9 And from among the peoples and tribes and tongues and nations do
men look upon their dead bodies three days and a half, and suffer not
their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
10 And they that dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and make
merry; and they shall send gifts one to another; because these two
prophets tormented them that dwell on the earth.
11 And after the three days and a half the breath of life from God
entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell
upon them that beheld them.
12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up
hither. And they went up into heaven in the cloud; and their enemies
beheld them.
13 And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and the tenth part
of the city fell; and there were killed in the earthquake seven
thousand persons: and the rest were affrighted, and gave glory to the
God of heaven.

----------
Appointed by God
Jeremiah 38:1,2 - Then Shephatiah the son of Mattan, and Gedaliah the
son of Pashur, and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashur the son of
Malchiah, heard the words that Jeremiah had spoken unto all the
people, saying, Thus saith the LORD, He that remaineth in this city
shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence: but he
that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live; for he shall have his
life for a prey, and shall live.
Jeremiah is considered as one of the craziest yet the one of the
greatest Man of God during those times. The things he was instructed
to do and the situations he had to bear made his life most difficult
and sometimes even he himself cried and thought what he was doing not
helping God's Kingdom but little did he know that he would be the Paul
of the Old Testament. Most of the books explaining Prophesies like
Daniel and Revelation are mostly written based on the Words the Lord
spoke through Jeremiah.
I really understand Jeremiah for I too have been in his shoes (may be
his junior shoes). My life too has been a crazy ride and people who
know me will tell you that. People around me have to change or else
run away especially those whom God has called. When the Lord asks me
to speak to them, He also starts His work on them then it is either
give in or give up.
Like Jeremiah there are times I also look at what I am doing and see I
am hurting many a people but what can I do when they are in the flesh.
A nick name a brother kept during my early days in the Lord was ‘thorn
to the flesh’ for people would fear to even take my phone. But as
spiritual maturity grew in me I do not stop what I did before but I do
it with grace for we dwell in the times of grace. The fire in my bones
does not allow me to stop like in the case of Jeremiah.
There was an incident of a family member who does work for the church
(Catholic church and famous for deliverance) , this happened when the
Lord started removing me out of that church. He accused me of having a
spirit (evil) in me so I challenged him to deliver me since he had
that power in him. What happened after that bought fear in him that he
started believing evil spirits were more powerful than him even though
he thought he was in the Lord (understand even the unbelievers claim
to do deliverances but these cases are never permanently sorted and
reoccur - they deceive).
There was a time I also thought was I picking on the Catholics just
because I felt cheated and robed by them when I did not know the Lord.
But then the Lord spoke unto me on this matter and assured me what I
was doing was just as He has instructed through Jeremiah (Jer
50:28-30).
The people who were hearing Jeremiah had great names and positions
(Shephatiah- "Jehovah has judged", Gedaliah-"Jehovah is great",
Jucal-"Jehovah is able" and Pashur-"freedom" ) but when they heard an
appointed man of God (Jeremiah means "whom Jehovah has appointed") the
ground below their feet shook.
When the Lord appoints you He may lead you to do some of the craziest
things, do not fear just do it, but do make sure it is from the Lord
and not your flesh leading you; that can be confirmed if one knows the
nature of God and His Word (since we do not have full understanding of
all scriptures the nature of God helps us confirm if we are in the
right direction). For example there was an evangelist in the 70's who
was very famous for hitting people in the place of problem and healing
them, it was latter in his old age when his wife died before the
helpless him, that he acknowledged it was faith and not his hitting
that healed people.
[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are an Awesome God and You do awesome things through your
appointed ones. Lord we live in a time that needs more and more
appointed ones through whom your power is experienced so that people
acknowledge your presence. We need more Jeremiahs now than ever to
strengthen your Church and bring it out of the confusion that it is
in. The leaders are more concentrated on pleasing people more than
pleasing You. We need a renewal among the leaders so that they
concentrate more not in just making believers but making disciples for
You...
This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.
[Reference Scriptures]
Jeremiah 20:8-13
8 For since I spake, I cried out, I cried violence and spoil; because
the word of the LORD was made a reproach unto me, and a derision,
daily.
9 Then I said, I will not make mention of him, nor speak any more in
his name. But his word was in mine heart as a burning fire shut up in
my bones, and I was weary with forbearing, and I could not stay.
10 For I heard the defaming of many, fear on every side. Report, say
they, and we will report it. All my familiars watched for my halting,
saying, Peradventure he will be enticed, and we shall prevail against
him, and we shall take our revenge on him.
11 But the LORD is with me as a mighty terrible one: therefore my
persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail: they shall be
greatly ashamed; for they shall not prosper: their everlasting
confusion shall never be forgotten.
12 But, O LORD of hosts, that triest the righteous, and seest the
reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them: for unto thee
have I opened my cause.
13 Sing unto the LORD, praise ye the LORD: for he hath delivered the
soul of the poor from the hand of evildoers.
Lamentations 1:12-13
12 Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? behold, and see if
there be any sorrow like unto my sorrow, which is done unto me,
wherewith the LORD hath afflicted me in the day of his fierce anger.
13 From above hath he sent fire into my bones, and it prevaileth
against them: he hath spread a net for my feet, he hath turned me
back: he hath made me desolate and faint all the day.
Jeremiah 50:28-30
28 The voice of them that flee and escape out of the land of Babylon,
to declare in Zion the vengeance of the LORD our God, the vengeance of
his temple.
29 Call together the archers against Babylon: all ye that bend the
bow, camp against it round about; let none thereof escape: recompense
her according to her work; according to all that she hath done, do
unto her: for she hath been proud against the LORD, against the Holy
One of Israel.
30 Therefore shall her young men fall in the streets, and all her men
of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD.

Great vengeance on the dwellers of the sea coast
Ezekiel 25:16,17 - Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will
stretch out mine hand upon the Philistines, and I will cut off the
Cherethims, and destroy the remnant of the sea coast. And I will
execute great vengeance upon them with furious rebukes; and they shall
know that I am the LORD, when I shall lay my vengeance upon them.
The Lord has been tolerating and tolerating and tolerating (I could go
on pages after pages) since ages and ages and ages (there too the
same) the foolish and rebellious man for one of the natures of God is
slow to anger. But this glass which the Lord has limited for man has
now come to its brim. Now that He has given us more and more of His
Spirit and that His grace is abundant on us through the sacrifice of
Jesus Christ, the Lord is says these cannot be in vain. Either make
your mind to be His child or be the child of Satan by being lost in
this world.
In today’s message the Lord is talking of taking serious action
against 3 types of people namely the Philistines, Cherethims and the
remnants of the sea coast.
The Lord is not talking of the people who existed during the time of
Ezekiel but from the meaning of the words and the spiritual
symbolization we will understand whom the Lord is speaking of.
Philistines means immigrants
Cherethims means executioners - this name was also given to the
Cretans (meaning fleshy) or proto-Philistines.
The remnants of the sea coast - the word ‘sea’ symbolize humanity
which includes generations of all religions, all cultures and all
their beliefs.
The Lord is speaking to all Christian immigrations people who call
themselves Christians but are not, they behave like unbelievers. Like
today I received a mail which a person replied to my yesterday’s mail
about healing the sick by laying of hands and the person said these
things were told only to the Apostles and not to all for people do
fall sick. This shows how lack of faith the person has and shows how
the sacrifice of Jesus does not mean anything in his life. By the
sacrifice of Jesus we are healed and peace was made between God and
man, but we fall sick because of our lack of faith and because we do
not apply the Sacrifice into our lives. The Christians does not become
a Christian by being born in a Christian family, nor by calling
oneself one or by reading the Bible. A Christian is a person who
believes in Christ and all that Christ did for him, he is the one who
walks in the instructions of Christ. There was also a mail I received
asking for prayer for some Christians whom the Hindus are getting
converted back to Hindus in a large fair (mela) in northern India.
Firstly how can a person knowing the Truth and knowing Christ can deny
Him and still live? A person does not get convert to Christian unless
he is converted from inside being renewed from inside. If they even
entertain the thought of going back, it means they were not Christians
in the first place and someone fooled them with a name tag or sold
them the religion.
The second category talks of people who have become Christians because
they want to be blessed in their worldly life. No doubt by faith we do
receive all our worldly needs but wanting them more than what is
needed goes against the foundation of a Christians. This we will
understand when we understand why the grape wine is one of the most
important fruit (symbol) for a Christian (the others being
pomegranate, fig and olive). It was with this understanding Jesus
called grape juice as His blood sacrifice given to sanctify us.
The third category refers those who stay on the coast line of the sea,
meaning people who promote harmony between God and Satan. They are
people promote harmony between all religions calling all gods are one
god. A Christian does not mean he needs to be an extremist or fanatic.
A Christian is called to live in social harmony even with those who do
not know God, helping them in their time of need, thus become a light
to those in darkness. But a Christian should not live in harmony of
belief by compromising the Truth with vanity. A Christian should be
strong and non-tolerating in his understanding with the understanding
of the world but at the same time soft in heart emitting mercy unto
those who need.
Time and again we are receiving warning and the Sword is drawn out to
strike so let us review our spiritual lives and if we are in among
these 3 category let us fall at the feat of the Lord and asking for
forgiveness let us change our way of life.
[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are a merciful God Who is slow to anger. Before time You
gave many warnings and as written You will take actions against the
spiritual stiff neck people. Like You said either be hot or cold but
You will spit out those who are lukewarm, for You are a Holy and
Righteous God and value your Name. You will not allow your Name to be
let low by anyone. Lord, we pray that by your grace and Spirit we show
ourselves as truly your people and your glory surround us...
This prayer we make in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
[Reference Scriptures]
Revelation 3:15-19
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou
wert cold or hot.
16 So because thou art lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will
spew thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have
need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art the wretched one and
miserable and poor and blind and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold refined by fire, that thou mayest
become rich; and white garments, that thou mayest clothe thyself, and
that the shame of thy nakedness be not made manifest; and eyesalve to
anoint thine eyes, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I reprove and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Exodus 34:6-7
6 And Jehovah passed by before him, and proclaimed, Jehovah, Jehovah,
a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in
lovingkindness and truth;
7 keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and
transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty,
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the
children’s children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.
Matthew 19:23-26
23 And Jesus said unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, It is
hard for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heaven.
24 And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through a
needle’s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25 And when the disciples heard it, they were astonished exceedingly,
saying, Who then can be saved?
26 And Jesus looking upon them said to them, With men this is
impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Haggai 2:19
19 Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, the vine, and the fig-tree, and
the pomegranate, and the olive-tree have not brought forth; from this
day will I bless you.

Healing of the sick
Mark 1:32-34
32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that
were sick, and them that were possessed with demons.
33 And all the city was gathered together at the door.
34 And he healed many that were sick with divers diseases, and cast
out many demons; and he suffered not the demons to speak, because they
knew him.
Before I start I like to apologize for not sending yesterday's mail.
It wasn’t that I had not got a message to send; I did get a message
(Jer 38:20) but feared to send it.
Just in the morning I was reading a sms from a friend who sends smses
to many on very regular basis and the sms are prayer requests for
people with problem and sicknesses (mostly critical). The number of
requests in per sms and the frequency of her smses made me think how
do they expect people to pray for each one of them. Knowing that not
praying for a person who has asked for prayers is serious matter I
needed to find an answer to it, so I started meditating on it through
my morning routines. I started to look at the life of Jesus our
perfect example and when I sat to write I got this message.
We complain of many various Churches but we do not realize the Lord
had designed the Church to be small units working among the people.
Where we fail is in the Truth part, because God designed them to be
one in understanding of the Truth and in purpose, this is what is not
happening.
We see in today's message the whole city had gathered unto Jesus with
their sick and demonic victims, but we read Jesus healed many and
delivered many but not all. There are cases where Jesus did heal all
and delivered them all, so why did Jesus not do the same here?
You will see the cases where Jesus healed all were when they were in
small groups or in the cases of large groups it was when they came out
of their cities and followed Him into the desert.
Today we live in an age of electronic communication; any person can
communicate with another person across the globe instantly, thus
enabling people to reach out for help or prayer requests across the
world in seconds.
Praying / healing for the sick is a important part of Christian life
but is not the only thing. A Christian is also called to make
disciples for Jesus by preaching the Gospel, baptizing them and
building them in the Lord. We are supposed to form local units and
pray and heal the sick among these local units. It makes a difference
when a person sends a sms or mail for healing and when a person goes
to a local Church to be prayed over and healed. One will find more
successes in the later cases.
When people think that man does the healing they will not do the later
and will look out for the special Men of God to do this job. It is
only people who know that God does the healing and had commissioned
every believer to do this job, will go to the local Church group.
Unless we do not come out of the city mentality we will not see cases
wherein all are healed. The city and the Church are separate worlds.
Church is defined as group of people separated from the world unto
God.
I encourage each one to remember the power to heal is given to each
and every believer, they are suppose to just lay their hands and it is
God who does the job. It is in only very serious cases you need to
approach a Man in Authority to do the job.
[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You have made man as part of the Body of Christ. The Body has a
system and process which You have given in your Word. Lord help us
realize it is You Who works through man and man is a mere tool of your
great deals. Open the eyes of your people and let them trusting in You
function as You defined and receive all that You have already set for
them...
This prayer we make in Jesus' Name, Amen.
[Reference Scripture]
Matthew 12:15-23
15 But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great
multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;
16 And charged them that they should not make him known:
17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,
18 Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul
is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew
judgment to the Gentiles.
19 He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his voice
in the streets.
20 A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not
quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.
21 And in his name shall the Gentiles trust.
22 Then was brought unto him one possessed with a devil, blind, and
dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and dumb both spake
and saw.
23 And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of David?
Luke 4:38-44
38 And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon’s house.
And Simon’s wife’s mother was taken with a great fever; and they
besought him for her.
39 And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and
immediately she arose and ministered unto them.
40 Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with
divers diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every
one of them, and healed them.
41 And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art
Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking them suffered them not to
speak: for they knew that he was Christ.
42 And when it was day, he departed and went into a desert place: and
the people sought him, and came unto him, and stayed him, that he
should not depart from them.
43 And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other
cities also: for therefore am I sent.
44 And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.
Luke 6:17-19
17 And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the
company of his disciples, and a great multitude of people out of all
Judaea and Jerusalem, and from the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, which
came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
18 And they that were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed.
19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: for there went virtue
out of him, and healed them all.
Mark 16:15-18
15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the
gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that
believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall
they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing,
it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they
shall recover.
Matthew 28:18-20
18 And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, All authority
hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth.
19 Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing
them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy
Spirit:
20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you:
and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.
Jeremiah 38:20
20 But Jeremiah said, They shall not deliver thee. Obey, I beseech
thee, the voice of the LORD, which I speak unto thee: so it shall be
well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.
