Brace Yourself, Big Storm Ahead

Greetings in the Lord~ Well, more trouble is on the horizon, it seems, so brace yourself (and I was hoping that when He gave His promise to settle things down, it would be like soon, you know).  Anyway, today in prayer the Lord led me to read Psalm 93 and gave another word of assurance about Him moving powerfully in our presence to help with all the protests/anarchists.  Interestingly, with a little research I noticed that I had written about this very same subject back on June 20th, 2015 (a spirit of anarchy stoking fires of hatred in people but using "social justice" as a guise).  Anyway, let's look at Psalm 93: The Lord is King!  He is robed in majesty.  Indeed, the Lord is robed in majesty and armed with strength.  The world stands firm and cannot be shaken.

CHAZ Swept Away

Greetings in the Lord~ This past year the Lord has led me to read from the book of Amos so often that it sometimes makes me think that maybe I'm missing something.  But really, it's just because we have moved into a time period of the "plumb line."  That is a time when God says 'enough is enough,' and His presence is a lot more evident as He is measuring and taking note of and "searching people's hearts" to give people what they deserve.   It is a time of action, when the strong hand of the Lord moves mightily around us, when our inner heart desires and ambitions are laid out for all to see and God metes out His decree of judgment for those who have rejected Him and His ways.  Needless to say, it is a quite volatile time, when the sifting of God's people based on their beliefs, politics, heart conditions and way of life will cause strife and much dissension in society.  This contention goes all the way back to Cain and Abel--where the offerin

Where the Spirit of the Lord Is, There is Freedom

Greetings in the Lord, Today's word comes from 2 Corinthians 3:7-18 and it talks about the new covenant that is found in Christ Jesus.  Paul the apostle tells us that even though God's Law, that was the foundation of the old covenant, was glorious, what we have in Christ is greater, it is more glorious.  He makes the distinction between the former letter of the Law and the surpassing Spirit of God that renews and opens hearts and minds so that they are no longer veiled from discerning the Spirit of God and following His will, so that, "whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." 2 Corinthians 3:17 So, in essence, he is talking about how a belief in Christ leads to spiritual renewal and understanding and therein lies true freedom.  That's pretty big stuff in light of the protests that are going on, where people are expressing all sorts of angst about the various
