Keep Your Tongue From Evil

Greetings in the Lord!

Today's verse comes from Psalm 34:11-14.
"Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord. Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days, keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies. Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it."

Blessed be the name of the Lord! ~Have a great weekend.

Decreed From Above -- Magic Veils Torn Off

Greetings in the Lord~ Today's word comes from Ezekiel 13 and it talks about God decreeing judgment against false prophets that have risen up in the land and have been misleading the people with their lies.  Naturally, reading verses like that always make me take a moment of self-reflection and repent before the Lord, as any conscientious prophetic speaker would do, but I did not feel as though this word had anything to do with the actual prophetic voices coming from within the prophetic community.  No,these "false prophets" are the liberal voices in the mainstream media, White House, Congress and Big Tech / Hollywood who keep trying to whitewash the evil agenda they push.  They keep saying 'all is well', when it is clearly not; and work overtime to discourage the righteous in the land while they encourage the wicked by promising "life" and "peace."  They do not work to 'rebuild the walls' of the nation, but are happy to let it become w...

Witch of Endor Be Revealed and Rendered Powerless

  Greetings in the Lord~ Well, Trump's in office and the predicted fireworks show has been non-stop. At first, it seemed a bit dramatic, like he was taking on issues that were out in left field and picking unnecessary fights with countries that are not typically in the U.S. news cycle.  It was a little hard to follow his thinking....at first.  But as most things Trump-related, the truth of a matter reveals itself in short time, thus prompting the current adage of: "Trump was right."  But this latest dispute he had with the president of Ukraine seems a bit different to me.   On the surface, it was dealing with a subject that has gotten a lot of press and dollars from the U.S.--the war in the Ukraine.  However, as I watched the early clips of their much publicized spat, I heard in my spirit: "The witch of Endor," over and over.  Hmmm, this is referring to the passage in 1 Samuel 28.  The prophet Samuel has just died and King Saul finds himself ...

Early Morning Warning

Greetings! The Holy Spirit woke me this dark icy morning to deliver a stern message: "I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them . For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people . Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I am full of joy over you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and about what is evil." Romans 16:17-19 The writer Paul doesn't mix any words, does he? And neither should we! By being "innocent about what is evil" we are taking no part in the misguided efforts of others and are being wise to their true selfish intentions. Lord, I pray that you will open the eyes of our hearts to see your righteous ways and follow closely to them, for we know you love humility, purity, and unity. Please open our ears t...

Oracle for Bin Laden and His Followers

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from Jeremiah 49:7-22. Selected verses are below: V.10) "But I will strip Esau bare; I will uncover his hiding places, so that he cannot conceal himself. His children, relatives and neighbors will perish, and he will be no more. Leave your orphans; I will protect their lives. Your widows too can trust in me." V.14) I have heard a message from the Lord: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, "Assemble yourselves to attack it! Rise up for battle!" V.15) "Now I will make you small among the nations, despised among men. The terror you inspire and the pride of your heart have deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rocks, who occupy the heights of the hill. Though you build your nest as high as the eagle's, from there I will bring you down," declares the Lord. V.19) "Like a lion coming up from Jordan's thickets to a rich pastureland, I will chase Edom from its land in an instant. Who i...

Shake, Rattle and Roll

Greetings in the Lord! It was just this past week that I realized another important prophetic word being fulfilled these days. Actually, it was last month, March, that it began...four years from the time the Lord gave the word. I was in Iceland in March of 2006, and the Lord had given a word at that time for the island nation: "It's the dawn of a new age in Iceland! Look, over the mountains--a bright Light shines. Feel His warmth stirring and melting your hearts. Truth shall reign in the north! The Lord comes riding on His white horse to spear the red dragon, setting the captives free! In an instant, all is changed! Your hearts will burn for Me! Raging to the ends of the earth, proclaiming Truth, taming the earth once again--you are fearless, My Nordic children. You are greatly loved My tender ones. You are gifted and beautiful, polished for the day I unsheathe you to the world. A tall, silver, shining sword will come from the north to touch the ends of the earth. Truth! Trut...

Freeing the Captives

Greetings in the Lord! On Friday night I joined an outreach team at the St. Louis Dream Center to go to the inner city neighborhoods of St. Louis for street evangelism. I don't mind telling you that I was a bit nervous--St. Louis has received top billing as the most dangerous city in the US. The words the Lord gave me were not much comfort either. The first word, based on Ezekiel 22, talks about Israel's rampant violence, immorality and idolatry and the Lord rising to deal with them. "Then the word of the Lord came to me: "Son of man, the house of Israel has become dross to me; all of them are the copper, tin, iron and lead left inside a furnace. They are but the dross of silver. Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: 'Because you have all become dross, I will gather you into Jerusalem. As men gather silver, copper, iron, lead and tin into a furnace to melt it with a fiery blast, so will I gather you in my anger and my wrath and put you inside the c...

Earnestly I Seek You

Greetings in the Lord! Today's word comes from Psalm 63: "O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with the richest foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you. On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me. They who seek my life will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth. They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals. But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by God's name will praise him, while the mouths of liars will be silenced." Tonigh...
