The Demise of Samaria

Greetings in the Lord~

Today's word comes from Isaiah 28 and gives us yet another word about the demise of this current illegitimate U.S. administration.  The word is based on Isaiah 28, which was a prophetic word about the fall of the northern kingdom of Israel, whose capital was Samaria.  These northern leaders were liars and deceivers, using violence and corruption to attain wealth and power.  Also, in their quest to keep their populace from going south to worship in God's Temple in Jerusalem, they built idols in Samaria and ordained false worship.  

Needless to say, this created a huge divide within Israel and propelled the northern kingdom far from obeying or revering God's Word.  Such is the divide in the U.S. today--this illegitimate administration pushes an agenda far from the heart of God's Word and seeks only riches and power for themselves.  Unknowingly or in agreement with, they work to advance an antichrist agenda in the U.S.---but to their own demise.  "Judah", or the southern kingdom which still worships at God's Temple, longs for justice and integrity in their country and rejects the "northern" antichrist agenda.

In Isaiah 28, we read about Samaria's love of "wine"--lies and deception and rebellious ways that cause them to be unable to see or perceive truth.  But:

"What sorrow awaits the proud city of Samaria--the glorious crown of the drunks of Israel.  It sits at the head of a fertile valley, but its glorious beauty will fade like a flower.  It is the pride of a people brought down by wine."  Isaiah 28:1

Then  the passage goes on to tell us how: 

"For the Lord will send a mighty army against it.  Like a mighty hailstorm and a torrential rain, they will burst upon it like a surging flood and smash it to the ground."  Isaiah 28:2

It's interesting to note that the Ukraine is assembling an "IT army" of hackers to come against Russia these days.  Therefore, a "mighty army" could be a non-traditional army, but one that would fight in cyber-warfare or with information...

You boast, "We have struck a bargain to cheat death and have made a deal to dodge the grave.  The coming destruction can never touch us, for we have built a strong refuge made of lies and deception."  

Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: "Look! I am placing a foundation stone in Jerusalem, a firm and tested stone.....Since your refuge is made of lies, a hailstorm will knock it down.  Since it is made of deception, a flood will sweep it away.  I will cancel the bargain you made to cheat death, and I will overturn your deal to dodge the grave....Again and again that flood will come, morning after morning, day and night, until you are carried away."  Isaiah 28:15-19

Truth can be a conquering force brought on by an army of courageous truth-tellers.

Then at last the Lord of Heaven's Armies will Himself be Israel's glorious crown.  He will be the pride and joy of the remnant of His people.  He will give a longing for justice to their judges.  He will give great courage to their warriors who stand at the gates.   Isaiah 28:5-6

It's funny how when one lie is exposed and breaks away to truth, it can begin to unravel the whole web of lies that were strung together for supporting an evil agenda.  It's funny too, how when one lie is exposed and breaks away to truth, a flood of courageous truth-tellers can pour forth to demand justice, tearing down the flimsy white-washed walls of deception in which corrupt leaders had erected to shield the truth and present a false narrative.  Let a longing for justice rise up in our judges, and a courage to decree righteous judgments!  May the Lord's will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

~Be blessed and be a blessing.

Joel 2: Locusts Swarm and Devour the Land

  Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word comes from Joel 2, and is accompanied by a dream.  Let me first share about the passage from scripture.  In this passage, we read about the Lord directing an 'army' of locusts to come to devour and plunder the land as a form of judgment.  Interestingly, devouring locusts were one of the plagues that happened in Egypt long ago as a form of judgment to compel Pharaoh to let the Israelites leave their country--freeing them of their slavery.  Here, however, the plague of locusts come as a form of judgment upon His people for their persistent sin and stubborn rebellion against God.   "Ahead of them (locusts) the land lies as beautiful as the Garden of Eden.  Behind them is nothing but desolation, not one thing escapes....Look at them as they leap along the mountaintops.  Listen to the noise they make--like the rumbling of chariots, like the roar of fire sweeping across a field of stubble, or like an army moving into battle."  "

I Have Faith

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word is from 2 Thessalonians 3:1-2: "Finally, brothers, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you. And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil men, for not everyone has faith." Have you ever had a conversation with a non-believer and they say, "I have faith, just not in God," or something along those lines. I am surprised at how often I have heard that! Actually, the definition of faith also includes the characteristics of trust and loyalty, so faith is more like a relationship between beings rather than a trust in a belief system, laws of nature, or inanimate objects. So, what they mean to say is that they have put their trust in something or many things other than God. These misplaced trusts are what they rely on instead of the Lord. The Bible refers to those misplaced trusts as "strongholds," similar to fortresses. Now you can see the big difference b

Wedding Clothes

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from Matthew 22:1-14, of which I will share selected verses: "Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying: "The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, but they refused to come....Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come. Go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.' So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, both good and bad, and the wedding hall was filled with guests. But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. 'Friend,' he asked, 'how did you get in here without wedding clothes?' The man was speechless. Then the king told the attendants, 'Tie him hand and foot, and throw him out

Righteousness and Justice Your Foundation

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from Isaiah 41:14-29, of which I will share selected verses: "Do not be afraid, O worm Jacob, O little Israel, for I Myself will help you," declares the Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. "See, I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them, and reduce the hills to chaff. You will winnow them, the wind will pick them up, and a gale will blow them away. But you will rejoice in the Lord and glory in the Holy One of Israel." "The poor and needy search for water, but there is none; their tongues are parched with thrist. But I the Lord will answer them; I, the God of Israel, will not forsake them. I will make rivers flow on barren heights...I will put in the desert the cedar and the acacia,....so that people may see and know, may consider and understand, that the hand of the Lord has done this, that the Holy One of Israel has created i

My Brother Ishmael

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from Genesis 16:9-12 and Genesis 21:14-20~ And he said, "Hagar, servant of Sarai, where have you come from and where are you going?"  "I'm running away from my mistress Sarai," she answered. Then the angel of the Lord told Hagar, "Go back to your mistress and submit to her." The angel added, "I will so increase your descendants that they will be too numerous to count." The angel of the Lord also said to her: "You are now with child and you will have a son. You shall name him Ishmael, for the Lord has heard of your misery. He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand will be against everyone and everyone's hand against him, and he will live in hostility toward all his brothers." Early the next morning Abraham took some food and a skin of water and gave them to Hagar. He set them on her shoulders and then sent her off with the boy. She went on her way and wandered in the

Strong Hand of the Lord Moving Now

Greetings in the Lord~ Well, there are certainly a lot of prophetic words being fulfilled right now.  First the more difficult word from February about "natural disasters" and other difficult incidents coming to pass--we've had a month of tornadoes, flooding, avalanches, bomb cyclones, blizzards, major financial drops on global stock markets and 2 incidents of hAte ideology acting out in Amsterdam and New Zealand.  Whew!  As if that isn't enough, if I include other sources where I post prophetic words, there has been a fulfillment of a word from July 2018 about the MeToo Movement hitting the "boy" and "girl" pop band music industry of Asia (Korea-K POP and Japan-J POP) and also a word of victory from Psalm 98:1 in that, there was no collusion found between Russia and President Trump.  Any sane person already knew that, but the liberal media had been lying endlessly about it for two years so we can all celebrate with President Trump that the chara

Beware of Karen and the Nicolaitans

Greetings in the Lord~ Last week the Methodists as a denomination met at their General Conference in Charlotte, NC to discuss and vote on many matters, including the controversial topic of allowing actively practicing homosexual persons to be ordained as pastors.  The vote was pretty overwhelmingly in support of that issue. Not only that, but they decided that gay marriages can be performed by such clergy in Methodist churches that are agreeable to this taking place in their church.   Needless to say, this approval goes far beyond finding common ground and unity within the denomination, as it basically endorses a tenet that is not compatible with Scripture.  But maybe more importantly, it is a beginning of fulfillment of prophetic End Time warnings given all throughout the New Testament.   These warnings can be found most directly in the 2nd chapter of the book of Revelation in reference to the sect of the Nicolaitans.  These Nicolaitan "Christians" taught that it was OK to c
