Isn't it a "coincidence" that my hometown's counsel, who "coincidentally" made themselves available to her, primarily consists of my enemies. Furthermore, what a "coincidence" that their only advice to my hometown has been to seek to discredit, dishonor, and destroy me; and such to an elder. Yet, my own hometown people, who cast me out for being loyal to God, are upset with me because, likened to Jesus's hometown, they have only received light esteem? While I would have preferred it had they behaved as the city they claim to be; I wouldn't have it any other way now. Everything is manifesting exactly as Jesus foretold. Again, I have nothing to do with games. That aspect is part of the process, whereby God evaluates the city for a reward...

GOD BLESS YOU AND JESUS LOVES ALL OF YOU. Amen

To Those Who Have Ears To Hear: Delving a little deeper: While James 2:17 is a beautiful poetic depiction and directive of the essence of true worship, it also exposes those who are given to narcissism and selfishness. The Counsel of Diotrephes (Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees): ⁵Dear friend, you are being faithful to God when you care for the traveling teachers who pass through, even though they are strangers to you. ⁶They have told the church here of your loving friendship. Please continue providing for such teachers in a manner that pleases God. ⁷For they are traveling for the Lord, and they accept nothing from people who are not believers. ⁸So we ourselves should support them so that we can be their partners as they teach...

If God permits, my next few posts will devle deeper into this topic. However, today's focus is on this particular part that God set apart. Luke 11 (NLT) ³⁹Then the Lord said to him, “You Pharisees are so careful to clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside you are filthy—full of greed and wickedness! ⁴⁰Fools! Didn’t God make the inside as well as the outside? ⁴¹So clean the inside by giving gifts to the poor, and you will be clean all over. Here again, Jesus doubles down on "giving to the poor." 😄 I like the Amplified Bible translation: "But give that which is within as charity [that is, acts of mercy and compassion, not as a public display, but as an expression of your faithfulness to God], and then indeed all things...

🙏God, I ask You in Jesus' name, Chain Me To You! https://be-an-encourager.blogspot.com/2026/08/chained-to-you.html

For years, our ministry responded to online prayer requests with prepared, repeated prayers. A person would submit a request, and the system would return a prayer written beforehand. The wording was not tailored to every detail, but the prayer was still offered for the person who received it. Artificial intelligence has allowed us to improve that process. Instead of returning the same canned response to everyone, our bots can consider the particular request and compose a relevant response. We give them selected Christian principles, theological profiles, and texts from teachers whose beliefs we accept, such as Charles Spurgeon. The bots use those materials to evaluate each request and respond within the Christian framework we have...

Hi , a subject i always enjoyed was the idea their being haunted houses and ghost sightings , I was always told at least with the Catholics that you are suppose to condemn the idea of that existing , I personally read a kings James New Testament book , it did not mention anything to deny the existence of ghosts . What’s the truth and facts that religion teaches on this ?

God, I ask You in Jesus' name bless me to grow in faith and wisdom through Your Word. Bless me to dream the dreams of God and bless me with the abilities and confidence to fulfill my God-given dreams. God bless me to keep my mind focused and stayed on You, so that I can walk in perfect peace as I fulfill my God purpose. God do this for me and the writer of this prayer. Bless each of us with love, power, and a sound mind so that the spirit of fear and anxiety will not operate in any of our lives. Thank You Jesus. Amen. www.encourager.us

Before I continue in fulfilling the teaching aspect of my calling, I must once again document my observations. “Write, therefore, what you have seen, what is now and what will take place later." Revelation 1:19 Basically, what I am witnessing, in this immense metroplex in 2026, is the multitude pointing their finger at a homeless grandmother for the shortcomings of muti-billion dollar sports franchises. But again, because of scripture, I am not at all shocked. I am merely disheartened by the mindset and behaviors of such a vast group of supposedly enlightened people who proclaim godliness. It has truly been difficult to watch them miss out on all that God showed me for this city, while expending their energy trying to prove me wrong...
