Many have attempted to thwart my ministry with the accusation that I'm casting my pearls among swine. As if that justifies disobedience or theft from God. But, in fact, part of my instruction from God, whether man listens or refuses to listen, is as follows: Isaiah 58:1 (NLT) “Shout with the voice of a trumpet blast. Shout aloud! Don’t be timid. Tell my people Israel of their sins!" I'm not just preaching salvation, but speaking prophecy. But there again, God knows the truth. He knows that I don't go knocking on man's door to do either. But rather, the multitude gather themselves to me, and against me, for their own selfish gain. You even seek it out online. Ezekiel 33: (NLT) So they come to you as people do, they sit before you as...

Father, thank you all power in heaven and earth belongs to Jesus, who through suffering, defeated the one who had the power of death, that is, the devil -- effectively abolishing the fear of death and the slavery most of the world has toward that fear. Grant the message of faith in Christ, the entirety of the Gospel of how Christ "emptied Himself" and "took on flesh" and defeated sin, hell and the grave by granting eternal life in Jesus, Heb 2:14-15, Phil 2:5-11. Grant us to "study to show ourselves approved, accurately handling" (studying, living, teaching and preaching) "The Word of Truth," 2 Tim 2:15. Confirm the Word through miracles, gifts, signs and wonders, Rom 15:18-19, 1 Cor 2:4-5, 1 Thes 1:4-5, Thank You for revealing Your...

I still do not believe in coincidence. I know that Jesus was twice stoned in Jerusalem because of the message He spoke and His claims of deity: But, earlier today, in seeking to revisit that particular text for my personal notes, I "incidentally" entered the words "his hometown" instead of Jerusalem. The following portion of the returned data spoke volumes to how selfishness and greed can gain stronghold, even over an entire city. Entry: Jesus stoned in his hometown Search engine results AI Overview: In Luke's Gospel, Jesus faces rejection and attempted violence in his hometown of Nazareth. The people, initially impressed by his words, become enraged when he suggests *God's favor extends beyond their community.* They then attempt to...

Again: What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. Ecclessiastes 1:9 Indeed, history continues to repeat herself. Search engine results: Question: Did the church help to further Jeremiah's ministry? Based on the biblical account, the religious leaders and priests of Jeremiah's time generally opposed and resisted his ministry, rather than helping to further it. Reasons for their opposition: Jeremiah's message was unpopular and challenging: He prophesied judgment and destruction for Judah due to their idolatry and injustice, a message the leaders and people did not want to hear. • He threatened their authority and livelihood: Jeremiah's criticisms of temple worship and his...

Israel, when spoken of in the scriptures, is not exclusive to the nation herself, but is representative of God's people everywhere. Where is your royal priesthood? 2 Timothy 3:16 (NIV) All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, Howbeit, Hosea 4:6 (KJV) My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. When God points the finger, His vengeance is unrelenting. Malachi 2 (NIV) ¹"And now, you priests, this warning is for you. ²If you do not listen, and if you do not resolve to honor my name,"...

```markdown Indeed, It Is Happening Again and all for the very same reasons. Ezekiel 14 ²³ (NLT) "When you meet them and see their behavior, you will understand that these things are not being done to Israel without cause. I, the Sovereign LORD, have spoken!” Ezekiel 33 (NKJV) ²⁹Then they shall know that I am the LORD, when I have made the land most desolate because of all their abominations which they have committed."' ³⁰"As for you, son of man, the children of your people are talking about you beside the walls and in the doors of the houses; and they speak to one another, everyone saying to his brother, "Please come and hear what the word is that comes from the LORD.' ³¹So they come to you as people do, they sit before you as My...

Glorious Sabbath Day People of God: For the director of music. A psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. [Psalm 19:1, NIV] Before the mountains were born or You brought forth the whole world, from everlasting to everlasting You are God. [Psalm 90:2, NIV] The knowledge that God needed no creator, neither is His existence dependent upon another is reason enough to give Him glory. “You are worthy, our LORD and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for You created all things, and by Your will they were created and have their being.” [Revelations 4:11, NIV] He exists because of Himself alone. "I AM THAT I AM" Sovereign Don't you just love Him? I sure do.

In Matthew 5:37, Jesus instructs us as follows: Just say a simple, ‘Yes, I will,’ or ‘No, I won’t.’ Anything beyond this is from the evil one. [Matthew (5:37)] But, that's regarding the vows that one makes. Too much talk leads to sin. Be sensible and keep your mouth shut. [Proverbs 10:19, (NLT)] Indeed. Howbeit, the protocol for God's messengers is the exact opposite. ALL THESE WORDS Old Testament Prophets Therefore thou shalt speak ALL these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee. [Jeremiah 7:27 (KJV)] He said to me, “Son of man, watch and listen. Pay close attention to everything I show you. You have been brought here so I can show you many things. Then...
