I Sing Under the Shadow of Your Wings

Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word comes from Ecclesiastes 7:1-9.  This book of wisdom in the Bible sometimes is hard to understand, in that, it has verses that seem contrary to conventional wisdom, and even appears to contradict itself from prior verses.  But much can be gleaned, nevertheless. "A good name is better than fine perfume, and the day of death better than the day of birth. It is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of everyone; the living should take this to heart. Frustration is better than laughter, because a sad face is food for the heart. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of pleasure. It is better to heed the rebuke of a wise person than to listen to the song of fools.  Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools.  This too is meaningless. Extortion turns a wise person into a fool, and a bribe corrupts the

Yo, Ho, Ho and a Bottle of Rum

Greetings in the Lord~ Well, this week is more of the same from the Lord; prophetic words addressing corruption, exposing sin, and recalibrating the land in the US, both in and outside of the American Church. This morning I had a dream in which I was walking along a trail in the woods which connected two gathering sites some distance apart.  I was alone on the trail in this dense forest and was enjoying my walk when I heard footsteps running up behind me.  Scared, I quickly hid in the brush and waited to see who it was.  A big man wearing a bright blue jacket came running by, and in his hand he held a long leash connected to a much smaller, weaker man that he was almost dragging along as his captive. "Yikes! He's taking prisoners out here," I thought.  After they ran past me, I was just about to come out from my hiding spot when I saw a huge group of people wearing blue running and riding bikes from the other direction!  They were fleeing from something as well.  I le

Open Our Eyes that We Might See

Greetings in the Lord~ Well, President Trump is just about finished with his tour of Asia, and despite what many "news" sources in the US will say, it went very well for the President.  There were many business deals signed to help with the global and regional economies, while issues of security, business ethics, and fair trade were also addressed in a productive and frank manner.  The internet chatter has been overwhelming positive for Trump in the countries where he visited for the most part, and I can confirm the support and respect he has garnered among the Chinese where I am.  Pretty much the verdict is this--he tells it like it is and doesn't back down.  He wins people's respect for his candor and strength.  Such a different report coming from the liberal left in the US!  And I've noticed something else, that the more distant one gets from those fake news sources geographically, the more sad and pathetic they sound.  From the Far East, they sound illogical

Fill the Censers, Sound the Trumpets

Greetings in the Lord! Early this morning while in prayer I felt the strong presence of the Lord.  After He was done talking to me about some personal things, His focus shifted to the world at large and He said, "I'm going to raise up intercessors from all around the world to pray for Donald Trump, for I am going to move throughout the nations using him.  I'm going to solidify his leadership globally and restore honor to him worldwide.  I am making a way where there is none now for My purposes to be accomplished in this hour.  My enemies will flee from every corner of the world with the new thing I am about to do.  I'm going to begin to break some very big strongholds in places on the earth that have been crying out to Me for freedom.  Watch and see!"   Wow--"cool," I thought. Then He said, " Revelation 8 ." When he opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.  And I saw the seven angels who stand before
