```markdown Upon Jesus's arrival in Jerusalem, the party was on. The masses came out to greet Him dancing in the streets and waving celebratory palm leaves. Everyone was happy to believe in Him as long as they thought they were going to be enriched. But, how quickly the tide turned when Jesus opened His mouth and began to speak of repentance, denouncing sin, ritualism, and the status quo. That wasn't a message the people wanted to hear; so, they were easily persuaded, by jealous temple leaders, to set themselves against Him. They decided that Jesus needed to be held accountable for seeking to exalt Himself with blasphemous claims about His calling. But, because of insurmountable evidence, which testified in His favor, they could not...

Good Friday Everyone: Since this is Good Friday, which is all about Jesus's allegiance to God, for the people's sake; I thought that I would address His expectation of allegiance from His people. Man's observation of division may not necessarily be according to Paul’s assessment: Avoid Divisive People Romans 16: ¹⁷And now I make one more appeal, my dear brothers and sisters. Watch out for people who cause divisions and upset people’s faith by teaching things contrary to what you have been taught. Stay away from them. Indeed, if you have judged and operate according to this text, the instruction includes staying away from the "reward," (whether for sports or anything else) as well: Otherwise you walk and/or in hypocrisy. Testing...

```html Keep trusting God Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him.’ Job 13:15 The story of Job reads like this: Chapter 1, he is one of the wealthiest men in his generation. Chapter 2, he loses everything, including his health, his wealth, and his children. Chapter 42, he is back on top again. Wouldn’t you like to know what happened from chapters 3 through 41? If so, you should read the book of Job and find out how he had it all, lost it all, got it all back, and ended up with twice as much as he lost. Did Job have unanswered questions? Lots of them. Did he experience grief? Yes, to a depth that is hard to imagine. But Job never changed his mind about God, and God never changed His about Job. This...

GLORIOUS SABBATH DAY PEOPLE OF GOD If people didn't like me before, then it is highly likely that the masses will like me even less after reading this post. Nevertheless, it has never been about your likes. It's all about Him, and the fulfilling of the scriptures. I may not necessarily like the message myself, but as servants of the LORD, we are not called to deliver our own pretty little messages, we are called to deliver God's messages of warning, at His appointed time. Say to the king and the queen mother: “Take a lowly seat, for your beautiful crown has come down from your head.” Jeremiah 13:18 (ESV) That was then: Howbeit, with the same loyalty and intensity that I delivered that message of warning, for this leadership to step...

It may sound strange, but as Christians, in particular, submission is our most powerful weapon. The key to victory, when warring against a real enemy, is not only that we properly identify the enemy, but we must first know to whom we are to submit, and what that submission looks like. What is seen from the outside can often be a facade. Pretense is not only manipulative, but hypocritical. At best, rituals, even religious ones, are but an outward expression of whatever belief one espouses. But, faith in God, first and foremost, requires inward submission to Christ's teachings. Therefore, when we are in Christ (where there is now no condemnation) our primary focus is sincere honor from the heart, mind, and soul; not just going through...

Almost everybody was sleeping on you this season. They counted you as underdogs. BUT GOD, who neither sleeps nor slumbers, stepped in just when you needed Him most. Y'all, please help me congratulate the: 2024-2025 NCAAM Champions FLORIDA GATORS "If God be for you, who can be against you"

I see that, whether in one way or the other, God is still rewarding humility and honor with honor. Obviously, the sweet aroma of respect and grace from your fans not only continues to resonate with me, but is still alive in God's nostrils as well. Congratulations to the 2025 NCAAW Champions 👑 UCONN HUSKIES Please understand that my making mention of one team is in no way a condemnation of another. As long as you continue to achieve according to His statutes, your turn will come (or come again), which ever applies.

🙏 EARTHQUAKE RELIEF... We ask mercy on the 7.7 Earthquake rescue workers in Asia. Heal the injured, comfort the grieving, protect youth & elderly, help people turn to Christ. Help hospitals and workers, in Jesus' Name.

```markdown THE WORKER DESERVES THEIR WAGES (Attempting to go around God's instructions is cheating) At the very least, the worker, whether disciple or prophet/prophetess deserves their wages: food (including water), clothing, and shelter, or whatever else is needed to further the ministry. Luke 9:3-5 (NKJV) ³And He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece. ⁴"Whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart. ⁵And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them." These things satisfy basic need, which is to be provided by the house that welcomes. Howbeit...

When God tests a city, it is to prove their loyalty and love for Him. And how do we prove our love? ◄ John 14:15 ► “If you love me, obey my commandments." What are His commandments? ◄ Matthew 22:37-39 ► ³⁷Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ ³⁸This is the first and greatest commandment. ³⁹A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.'" A message for those cities to whom God has granted sports reward, even multiple reward, over the past three years of my assignment: Remember the honors that He has already bestowed upon you, and continue to trust in Him for the latter. Despite what the current situation may look like; we walk by faith not by...
