One of the hardest things to do as a servant of God, is to wait everything out for the completion of His plans in the coming of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
I’ve been told over and over again by the Holy Spirit, especially in these past few months to exercise restraint, patience, and to continue to trust in what the Lord needs to do before His return.
The reason why it has taken thousands of years for everything to play out according to God‘s will, and His Word, is because as humans we would not be able to handle it if it happened any quicker.
However, a few of us who are really spiritually paying attention, have discerned that the signs of the times not only are increasing, but we can sense the days now being shortened as we get closer to the Time of the End.
🙏❤️HOLD ON, dear one. The Lord knows how much we are struggling here. He knows every time we break down and cry. He knows that we are slowly losing our patience here with all the evil that is increasing around us. He does realize how frustrating it is! ✨Remember✨, the Lord Jesus went through similar situations while He lived here, especially in those last few years of His life here.
We just have to be patient and trust Him a little while longer before the Time of the End, then finally, His return. Everything will be played out according to what has been written.
No matter what evil schemes mankind and the demonic realm comes up with, the Lord is always thousands of steps ahead of them!!
Stay faithful, beloved! Let God‘s written ✡️📖✝️Word strengthen, comfort, and embolden you in these last days! Maranatha, Yeshua!😭🙏❤️✝️
It may seem petty to some, that lies are going to be held against us-especially if they are what we call “little white lies”, but the LORD God does take everything that comes out of our mouths seriously.
In Matthew 12:36-37, there is a chilling statement made by the Lord Jesus Himself that should make us all think twice before speaking out whatever we want to say: “I tell you, on the Day of Judgment people will give account for EVERY careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
In Luke 6:-43-45, the Lord Jesus spoke on how we can know a person by their fruit-whether their character is good or evil; just like the tree that bears either good or bad fruit, so can the person’s intentions in their heart be known by what comes out of their mouth.
Jesus said in vs. 45, “The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.”
If from time to time, we unfortunately ignorantly believed people who lied to us, and/or passed that lie onto others, we should always confess those sins as well, but instead of just giving the benefit of the doubt to people when they tell us something that should have been checked out further, we should “test all things” and be that Berean (Acts 17:11) the Scriptures tell us to be, so we can know the truth (Jn. 8:32) about certain questionable topics or situations.
One of the most important things that we as Christians can do, is make sure we are HEEDING the Voice of the Holy Spirit in our lives throughout the day, and for each and every situation we find ourselves in.
I know it may sound tedious to do, but then again, if the Lord Jesus Christ our Judge is telling us that we are going to be held accountable for all that we have said and done, and for what we have allowed to come into our lives— whether it be good or bad deeds, or good or bad words to influence us— we then should take it more seriously, and put those questionable comments, topics, situations, etc. to the test, before we believe it ourselves, and end up sharing it with others.
Beloved— I cannot stress enough how vitally important it is not only to accept the Lord Jesus into your life, but along with having Him in your life as your Savior, you must accept Him as your LORD and MASTER of your life.
Because as it is 📖written there is both a SPIRITUAL REALM and a PHYSICAL REALM in this universe-we are stuck in an ongoing spiritual battle. Hence the necessity for the Holy Spirit to enter into you, to cleanse and deliver you from the evil, for the spiritual good of your soul and spirit.
HOWEVER— without a true commitment and total surrender of every aspect of your life so that the Holy Spirit can start to work in you— meaning if you do not commit to read, learn, study, meditate on His WORD—in a biblical way, allowing the Holy Spirit to lovingly CHASTISE and CORRECT whatever wrong teachings or practices you were taught or heard about—He cannot completely DELIVER YOU from any and all demonic infestations, influences, etc. that have been in you up until the time of your salvation and new birth in Christ.
SINCERELY ASK the Holy Spirit to help you CONFESS all wrong thinking, lies and deceit of the enemy, ungodly lifestyles, mannerisms, etc. that you have allowed to become part of your life. Plead the BLOOD OF CHRIST over your life, and REBUKE the evil spirits that have kept you bound and in spiritual strongholds up until this point in your life.
Have the Holy Spirit cast out of you all that evil—it may take some time (and a LOT of effort, prayer, and patience on your part)-whether it’s weeks, months, etc— if you commit to having the Lord Jesus, deliver you from any and all sins, HE WILL DELIVER YOU!🙌📖❤️✝️
If you need prayer, guidance, counseling or more information about being delivered from any past sins, etc. please do not hesitate to contact your local parish priest, biblically based pastor, one of the really excellent exorcists like Monsignor Stephen Rosetti, who has online deliverance zoom sessions, or even a deliverance minister like myself. The Lord has equipped some of us to deal with such issues, so we can lend a helping hand in having the Holy Spirit deliver people, and set them free in the name of Jesus!🙏🙌❤️✡️📖✝️🕊️
It is amazing how when I had the talk with the Lord yesterday morning, and He stated to me (it was sometime after 4am at that point, I think) that “There will be more martyrs for the Faith”–pertaining to the coming Last Days and all that is yet to be fulfilled in His Word (Daniel, Revelation, Joel, etc.), I immediately just assumed He was mentioning sometime in the future. Ok, no big deal, I knew that from what was written in the Scriptures.
I just assumed as I was getting more sleepy and wanted to go back to sleep yesterday morning (after being up for the past hour or so), that what the LORD was telling me, was WAY in the future; it pretty much always has been, when He has told me things pertaining to futuristic events.
I got up, went to the bathroom, and stayed up thinking about what he said until almost 5am, and then finally went back to sleep. It IS common knowledge to a believer that has read the ✡️📖✝️WHOLE counsel of God, that IN the coming Days of the Tribulation–whenever that will be–there WILL be MANY souls who will give up their lives for Christ, and NOT partake in the Anti Christ’s demonic schemes.
MANY martyrs of the Faith will go Home to the Lord Jesus during that horrific Time here on Earth. I was well aware of that biblical FACT.
BUT–WHO KNEW less than 12 HOURS LATER, what the Lord said to me earlier that morning, was about to come to pass. THAT has NEVER happened to me before–something prophetic told to me and within 24 HOURS–it happened!!
The LORD God in all His mysterious wisdom, allowed the life of CHARLIE KIRK to be taken from us, assassinated because he was a faithful servant of God, someone who loved and cared enough about this nation to do all that he did in his short lifespan here, and spoke the Word of God in TRUTH and in LOVE, to those who either longed to hear what he said, while others hated him for it.
I’ve been crying and somewhat still in shock and numb since this all happened. I KNEW it was DEMONIC–I KNEW the Lord’s hand was all over this–it always is–NOTHING gets past Him, but HE DID ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN.
I knew Charlie’s assassination was not all for nought, that is was not done in vain; the LORD God my Father HAD a good REASON and PURPOSE for allowing such a horrific thing to happen.
I said to the LORD–“Abba, You NEED to allow us to have the resolve to do something about this–fight back with Your Word, and PLEASE EXPOSE the EVIL behind all of this!!” LET THE PEOPLE of this nation KNOW what DEMONIC entities are behind all the evil here! GIVE us the STRENGTH and DETERMINATION to fight back, but in the way YOU want us to!!”😭🙏
THEN, just before I was turning in last night, I saw this post from Trey Smith. I would look at it again this morning, to find out what Trey was talking about. See the link above from YouTube.
IT was about the DEMONIC entities that ARE over this nation, and how we need to pray spiritual warfare prayers to FIGHT BACK against them.
IT WAS about CHARLIE KIRK, and how a young man who loved the Lord Jesus and this nation, was targeted for his faith, and assassinated right before our eyes.
The demons think they’ve won. They took out a major servant of God “out”–so they think.
What they REALLY did (and this is why the LORD God allowed it happen)–is make the REST OF US who already have been in this VERY 👿SUPERNATURAL 🛡️SPIRITUAL ⚔️WARFARE–become even MORE resolved to 😡NEVER BACK DOWN, no MATTER what the evil ones throw at us–
And ALSO–I am VERY sure, that there are THOUSANDS upon THOUSANDS–possibly even a million or two people–that just became more ARDENT FOLLOWERS of ✝️Christ, BECAUSE of what happened to Charlie Kirk yesterday.
⚔️WE MUST TAKE BACK OUR GOD-GIVEN RIGHTS AND PRIVILEGES to speak out our ✡️📖✝️faith, SHOW IT any way we can, PREACH the WORD anytime, anywhere, and not let ANYONE shut us down for it!!
ALSO–those who HATE ✡️GOD, the Lord JESUS ✝️CHRIST, and HIS 📖WORD–and want to either silence us because they are atheists, humanists, satanists and/or worse yet, worship and serve another god/goddess (Allah/Ba’al/Baphomet/Apollyon/Chemosh/Molech, etc. Athena/Diana/Minerva/Ishtar/Innana/Venus, etc.)—I 😡have words for them-
YOU WILL NOT SILENCE US!! YOU WILL NOT STRIP US OF OUR RESOLVE! YOU WILL NOT BREAK US!! YOU WILL NOT TAKE FROM US, THE VERY SPIRIT OF THE LIVING MOST ✡️HIGH GOD AND HIS SON!! YOU WILL BOW DOWN YOUR KNEES TO THE LORD JESUS ✝️CHRIST; YOU WILL CALL📖 HIM “LORD”; YOU WILL END UP IN THE ETERNAL 🔥FIRES–EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU WHO TURNED HIS BACK ON THE MOST HIGH, AND SOUGHT TO DESTROY THE VERY HUMAN BEINGS HE MADE “IN HIS IMAGE”!!
YOU HAVE ALREADY LOST, DEMONIC 👿ENTITIES!! YOU ALREADY HAVE LOST, HA SATAN AND REBELLIOUS ANGELS!!! YOU ARE DESTINED FOR THE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥ETERNAL FIRES, FOREVER AND EVER!
Charlie Kirk was DESTINED to a certain 🙏PATH the LORD God laid out for him long ago. HE CHOSE to walk that Path, praise God. He became the man of God the Lord Jesus PRAYED for him to be (see John 17); Jesus prayed for ALL of us to walk a certain Path for Him, giving us certain callings and purpose to LIVE FOR ✡️📖✝️HIM and daily LIVE OUT His Word.
Charlie did that. EVEN Carlos Acutis did that, and at such a precious young age, and thank God that he did–many a Gen Z’er and Millennial have now TWO young men to look up to–although they were both sinners, and KNEW they needed a Savior; BUT–they followed the Path the LORD God set out for them IN FAITH and trusting Him, not knowing how it would end. They fought a good fight, they finished their individual race here on Earth.
They are NOW where I so long😭💔to be–at HOME with the LORD God, His Son, and all our Family of brothers and sisters in the Faith that have gone before us.
ALL we need to do, beloved, is to WALK the PATH the the LORD GOD destined for us. 🙏📖ASK, SEEK, and KNOCK–the LORD Jesus WILL direct you on that Path, to do whatever it is HE called you to do. Charlie and Carlos (just two examples)–two brave men who loved their Lord (both with essentially😃😄 the SAME NAME–I just realized that!) found out what THEIR individual PATHS were to be, and WALKED those Paths, until the Lord JESUS called them to their heavenly✨HOME.
YOU who are the Lord’s–GO OUT AND DO THE SAME!!! DO NOT ALLOW the evil in this world to put FEAR in you!!! DO NOT allow ANY human being to STOP you from answering the CALL of GOD in YOUR LIFE!!
MY individual CALLING has been a tough one–1)in the office of a Prophet, to “inform and warn” everyone of what is written in His ✡️📖✝️Word–preaching the WHOLE counsel of God, and 2)Dealing with Spiritual Warfare, the supernatural spiritual realm–both the angelic, demonic, and everything in between. NO ONE in their 😫right mind would choose such paths. I 🙁most certainly didn’t, but that’s why I “Jonahed” out of there 😞for a time, and then 🙏totally SURRENDERED to the Lord back in December of 2016, and it has been a WILD RIDE of on this Path of FAITH and TRUST in Him ever since.
BUT–the LORD JESUS has been walking right beside me, holding my hand as I am “Walking in the Dark with FAITH”–FAITH in HIM and HIS📖 WORD that 🙏upholds me, strengthens me, encourages ❤️me, emboldens ❤️🔥me, comforts ❤️🩹me, and makes me the 🛡️⚔️WARRIOR I AM IN ✡️📖✝️HIM, TODAY.
🛡️⚔️BE THE WARRIOR OF GOD THAT HE HAS CALLED YOU TO BE.
BE A CHARLIE. BE A CARLOS. BE a JOAN of ARC. BE a BENEDICT. BE a JOHN VIANNEY. BE a PADRE PIO. Be a GEMMA. BE A MARY. BE A PAUL. BE A STEPHEN. BE AN ANDREW and PETER and MATTHEW and ELIJAH, and JEREMIAH, and SAMUEL, and AMOS, and DAVID, and MOSES, etc.
❤️🔥🙏BE WHO THE LORD GOD CALLED YOU TO BE. And do not let ANYONE ever tell you otherwise, who or what you are. YOU are a CHILD of the LIVING GOD. YOU, beloved, have PURPOSE. YOU are ❤️LOVED by the MOST HIGH GOD. YOUR LIFE COUNTS!
NOW GO–be that man or woman of God that HE DESTINED for you to be, in JESUS’ MIGHTY NAME.
UPDATE— If you do decide to purchase one of my books— thank you ❤️so much, by the way— but I do please ask you to stay away from the KDP Select— they only pay pennies on a dollar. It helps the author out much better if one would buy a Kindle book or one of the physical books instead.
** The price of printing, especially for illustrated books is astronomical. I tried to be very fair in my book prices especially with the hard covers, but I need to make at least a few dollars on each of the books.  Before I revised my book prices the other day, their new rules had me at royalties of under a dollar for some of my books!!😫😩😭☹️ apparently I have to keep 🧐checking KDP publishing more often… 🙄😒 The royalty rate it’s not the best, but it’s better than nothing.  📚📋📚📋📚📋📚📋📚📋📚📋📚📋📚 Things are 😂getting serious 😏now that I not only put this all on my whiteboard, but I’m also sharing it!!😬🤓
My 📚WRITING ✍️ GOALS for the next year and a half…🙄🙏🙏🙏
PLEASE 📋READ so you can have an idea of WHAT I’ll be writing about, and WHEN it hopefully will be 📚published.
ALSO—contact 🗒️information about my biblical and deliverance ministry counseling;
THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN GIVEN TO DO; also it is mainly the ONLY MEANS of INCOME, besides the very small amount that I receive from my family member for helping them out (it unfortunately doesn’t cover all my bills/expenses at the present time).
Paul had his “tent ⛺️making” business; this is what I’m called to do, because we live in a secular society and unfortunately need to pay for whatever we need. It thankfully gets the biblical ✡️📖✝️message out though, through the means of the 📚books, blog 📋posts, devotionals, and 🙏🛡️⚔️⛓️💥counseling ministry.
🙏❤️PLEASE help SUPPORT me by going on AMAZON and purchasing my 📚books, make a donation on my 📋BLOG PAGE, and 🙏PRAYING for me to utilize all I’ve learned, in order to help those who seek me out for counseling.
BTW—My “fees” are mainly donations made for the time I am assisting the clients who are receiving help through my non-licensed biblical, Holy-Spirit led counseling ministry. They will be nothing like what we would normally pay for secular counseling or therapy. Biblical Lay counseling is much more affordable (and more spiritually efficient and effective) than what the secular world offers. Contact me for more information.
PLEASE—I beg all of you—PLEASE heed the Lord God’s WARNINGS in His 📖Word!!
Your hatred toward Israel and God’s inheritance, and all who love the Lord and His Word—if you do NOT REPENT, will be your eternal DESTRUCTION, as per HIS📖unfailing Word.
IF You come against me or any other true servant of the Most ✡️High God and His Son, ✝️the Lord Jesus Christ, according to HIS📖Word, you come against the Triune Godhead.
EVERY prophetic WORD OF 📖GOD MUST come to pass!
Do NOT be deceived into thinking that you will not be affected!! EVERY human being will be tested and tried.
Your choices determine your ultimate eternal destiny.
His 📖Word is forever TRUE, and WILL be accomplished according to HIS Will, timing, and purpose. 🙏❤️✡️📖✝️🕊️
I did not expect this post to be this long when I initially was sharing this video, but when the Holy Spirit has something to say–I don’t hinder Him from “speaking” through me via these posts, so here you go…
As the late great Dr. Michael Heiser stated, the early Church fathers knew the truth and TAUGHT it, yet somehow down through the centuries the traditions took over = the church leaders got sloppy with no longer properly exegeting biblical texts, in order to interpret them correctly according to CONTEXT.
FOR EXAMPLE, what is being spoken about in this very short video– The erroneous notion of fallen angels being the demons is widely known, taught, and accepted within many Christian sects of the Body of Christ.
BUT–it is WRONG. Just because they taught it to you, doesn’t mean you blindly accept it. YES–the church leaders (whatever title they fall under–rabbi, priest, pastor, bishop, etc.) ARE and WILL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE and ACCOUNTABLE for NOT properly teaching the Word 📖of God–the WHOLE✡️📖✝️WORD of God–from GENESIS through REVELATION!!
BUT we who PROFESS to be Christians, are ALSO held equally responsible for reading and studying God’s Word on our OWN! Some church leasers down through the millennia, have discouraged reading the Bible because of how one may wrongly interpret the passages; other leaders used it to control their congregations (let’s be honest!), and only taught them what they wanted them to know!
📖If one looks at such verses as Luke 12:12, John 14:26, 15:26, 16:13, and pretty much all of the book of ACTS, one will see just how much the HOLY 🕊️SPIRIT was saying, teaching, and doing WITHIN the BORN AGAIN BELIEVERS of the Church after Christ’s resurrection and ascension into Heaven. It was and IS, HE that continues to teach and guide the person who confessed Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior (Rom. 3:10,23; 10:9-10, 13), became a child of God (Jn. 1:12) and who received the Holy Spirit (Jn 20:22; Acts 1:8; 2:4, 33,38) in order to become BORN AGAIN (Jn. 3:3,5,7) SPIRIT-FILLED believers of God.
OH–and as far as “interpretations” and “versions” of the Bible that many people use as excuses to either NOT read or study, or say it all lends to confusion and division of the Body of Christ–you’re partially correct–the devil and his angels (Matt. 25:41), along with those demonic entities that “roam about, seeking whom they may devour” (1 Peter 5:8) know that if you do NOT resist him in your FAITH (1 Peter 5:9), wearing the armor of God daily (Eph. 6:10-18), and USE the authority given to you the believer by the Lord Jesus Christ to tread on those demonic serpents (like the one in Genesis 3!) and scorpions (see Luke 10:19), you WILL be deceived into thinking that there are errors and contradictions in Scripture, and will end up NOT taking God’s 📖Word as TRUTH (Jn. 17:17; see also Ps. 119:9-11, 105). REMEMBER–God’s Word is “firmly fixed in the heavens” (Ps. 119:89).
SO– humbly learn His Word via HIS HOLY🕊️ SPIRIT (even if there was no one to teach you, as I had no one in my family or anyone good enough in my parishes as a child–so 1 John 2:27 came into play for me, until I sat under good biblical teaching many years later), learning to “rightly divide the Word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15), because as the Apostle Paul wrote, “All Scripture is breathed out (pneuma/ruach) by God and profitable for teaching, for REPROOF, for correction, and for TRAINING in RIGHTEOUSNESS, that the man/woman of God may be COMPLETE (perfect), equipped for every good work” (2 Tim. 3:16-17).
BECAUSE–IF one is NOT fully surrendered and wholeheartedly following the Lord Jesus Christ, confessing Him as Savior AND Lord of their lives, living that faith life out, and filled with the HOLY 🕊️SPIRIT–it is guaranteed and confirmed via SCRIPTURE that OTHER evil spirits (which are 👿DEMONS who NEED a human BODY in order to carry out their evil works!) ARE or WILL be in a human being–whether that person is a baby, child, teenager, or adult. To the demons, IT DOESN’T MATTER who they are in–as long as they can “steal, kill, and DESTROY” (Jn. 10:10) human beings in order to spite the LORD GOD and what He allowed His Son to do for us on the Cross–which IS the ONLY WAY back to the Father (Jn. 14:6).
Don’t believe me? LOOK 📖up what the LORD JESUS said when referring to evil spirits needing a “home” (= host human body) in Matthew 12:43-45 and Luke 11:24-26. The FACT that both MATTHEW and LUKE recorded it in their Gospels should make you realize how serious this is. It’s also interesting how the Lord Jesus says at the end of that passage, “SO ALSO WILL IT BE WITH THIS EVIL GENERATION” (Matt. 12:45). OH how true that is TODAY!! But much is covered up by calling such demonic infestations, vexations, oppression, obsessions, and possessions, “mental or behavioural health” issues…🙄😣🙁 Thank God for the few good exorcists and deliverance workers that are out there, recognizing the demonic workings in people, and are hard at work setting these people free from their 👿strongholds!🙏❤️✝️
📖IF one looks closely at Genesis 6:1-4, and with proper reading of the ancient languages (Hebrew, in this case, and Greek in the Septuagint), studying each word and putting the pieces of the Scriptural 📖🧩puzzle together along with other passages that speak of the rebellious angels and their OFFSPRING, the Nephilim, and also the Rephaim (just to name a few: Num 13:32-33; Deut. 1:4; Genesis 11 paired with Deut. 32:8 and Daniel 10; 2Peter 2:4 along with Jude 1:6 and 1 Corinthians 10:20-22), AND coupled with reading the ENTIRE Bible–WITH the help and guidance of the Holy🕊️Spirit, a diligent Bible student can and WILL start to see a very SPIRITUAL picture form within what initially can seem and feel like, a very shocking and unnerving discovery of what REALLY is, and always has been, in God’s Word that has NOT been taught by most modern Judeo-Christian synagogue/church leaders.
Some churches ignore the majority of the Old Testament, and only preach what is in the New Testament. By doing that, the lay church member has NO CLUE on the HISTORY of ISRAEL, for example, and how the LORD God commanded Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob to lead their people to the Promised Land that GOD HIMSELF gave them! That’s like telling God that half of what He had His people share with us down through the ages was JUNK!😱🫢
Many church leaders think that books like 1 and 2 Maccabees and 1 Enoch have no spiritual weight to them, and discourage their congregations from reading or studying such books. But if one were to go ahead and read those books, they would find a plethora of information on not only Israel’s history and leadership, especially dealing with the 400 years of “silence” between Malachi and Matthew, but also when it comes to the book of 1Enoch (NOTICE how I am mentioning 1 ENOCH–NOT 2nd or3rd), one would find passages in there VERBATIM to what was in Genesis 6!
And YET–the ignorance and shunning of such books continues throughout today’s modern, Western-thinking church services. Traditions of some churches have as the Lord Jesus put it, “You leave the commandments of God and hold to the TRADITIONS of men” (Mark 7:8). Elsewhere, answering the Pharisees again, Jesus stated, “…thus making VOID the Word📖of God by your tradition that YOU HANDED DOWN…”(Mk. 7:13).
Not all tradition is bad; some of it is very good. Paul tells us in such passages as 2 Thessalonians 3:6 to “keep away from any brother who is walking in idleness and NOT IN ACCORD WITH THE TRADITION that you received from us.” What tradition is Paul talking about? The testimony he gave in 1 Corinthians 15, for example, how “Christ died for our sins IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE SCRIPTURES…” (1 Cor. 15:3).
KEEP asking the Holy 🕊️Spirit to OPEN your spiritual EYES, EARS, HEART and MIND, to learn and UNDERSTAND “what the Spirit is saying” (Rev. 2:7), by having “ears to hear” (Matthew 11:15) HIS VOICE over what man may be teaching or preaching in error. ASK for DISCERNMENT so that you can know the TRUTH, and avoid following the ERRORS that have been handed down to us.
THAT way, the Scriptures that seem like a daunting, billion-piece🧩🧩🧩 puzzle😖may then start to be put together piece by piece for you, with the help of the Holy Spirit leading and guiding you (Jn. 16:13) as you read and study God’s 📖Word–ALL of God’s Word.
THEN–one day, the Scriptures that seemed to be an enormous 🧩puzzle, no longer will be so confusing and intimidating to you, as you begin to RECOGNIZE the PICTURE😉that God painted on the tapestry of His Biblical LOVE Story that He longed to share with us. BUT–you MUST read ALL of it–OT and NT; you must learn to seek out WHICH apocryphal (like 1 and 2 Maccabees) and pseudepigraphal books (like 1Enoch) to read IN ADDITION to (and NOT substituting for) the entire Word ✡️📖✝️of God.
NOW go get your 📖Bible, pray up and ask the Holy 🕊️Spirit to lead and guide you in what you are about to read, and PUT more pieces of that🧩PUZZLE together! 😊🧩✡️📖✝️🕊️
I was in my late teens–around 17-19 years old, when I thought having an experience of LITERALLY hearing the Voice of the LORD God like the Prophet Samuel did, would be an awesome experience. I prayed to the LORD to allow it to happen for quite some time, and one night, it happened…
I was dead asleep, and I awoke to a man’s voice calling my name out–“JEANNETTE MARCELLI”; JEANNETTE MARCELLI”–😯I suddenly woke up, and what I thought I was hearing in my dream, was LOUD and CLEAR in my bedroom!🫢I was stunned, to say the least!
But immediately, I remembered Samuel’s experience, and realized that the LORD was answering MY prayer!😀 I called out, repeating the same words that Samuel spoke–“Speak; for your servant hears you.” Once that happened, I thanked the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, for allowing me to hear His Voice. That was the only time (so far) in my life, that I audibly heard His Voice. But boy, was that some wake up call!😐😊✡️📖✝️🕊️💖
When I turned 19 years old, I was “officially” called into the ministry, in the office of a Prophet, and I reluctantly accepted the “position”. I knew what opposition there was going to be with family, friends, and whatever else the evil ones could throw at me, especially at such a young age, when you are trying to establish yourself in this world. I wanted to obey the LORD’s Voice, and do what was called of me to do…
But by the time I neared the end of my 20th year, I started turning down a road that was NOT where the Lord wanted me to go; I worried more about what relationships I was going to have, and foolishly spending my hard earned money, instead of saving and tithing it as I should have. Within the next 5 years, my life changed dramatically–I became an unwed mother, losing both of my parents to their diseases, stopped going to school because of poor life choices, and was stuck on a crooked road, nowhere near where the LORD wanted me to go, or to serve Him in the capacity I was supposed to.
It took the next 30+ years and two divorces plus moving here and there, for me to realize that the LORD God’s voice was the ONE voice I should have listened to, and OBEYED; He knew where He was leading me, but I didn’t trust Him enough to do what He called me to do. Even though I did end up serving Him in other capacities like in a church praise and worship team, or going on a few global outreaches, because of the crooked path I was on, and the relationships I got myself into, I was not able to be used of Him the way HE destined for me.
December of 2016, was the time He chose to give me yet another opportunity to serve Him, but THIS time, He made sure I realized it had to be ALL or NOTHING. I CHOSE to serve Him WHOLEHEARTEDLY (Deut. 10:12; 1 Chron. 28:9; Ps. 119:2; Jer. 24:7; Mark 12:30), because serving Him half-heartedly, while doing what I WANTED to do in this world, only got me into major trouble! So I surrendered ALL to Him that night during that very emotional, tearful, and heart-wrenching time of prayer and reflection…
That night, the LORD put me back on the RIGHT PATH He initially chose for me. It’s been 7 YEARS since then, and those who know me (esp during those “before” years), can see and hear the difference NOW, compared to who I used to be.
I am grateful that the LORD God gave me another chance at being His lowly servant. It has NOT been easy at all, and many things have been “lost”, especially some very beloved people in my life, because I CHOSE to serve the LORD God with all my HEART, SOUL, MIND and STRENGTH (Deut. 6:4-9), and obey the Shema–HEARING the Voice of the LORD, and answering the CALL (finally!) in my life that HE destined for me. No regrets here! I cannot wait for That Day to thank Him in Person!!🙏💖✡️📖✝️🕊️
IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE CALLING YOUR NAME–ANSWER HIM!!🙏💖✡️📖✝️🕊️
During one of my courses this past year while obtaining my Master’s degree, I had to choose a passage to write a paper on, and I was led by the Spirit to choose Ephesians 4:1-6.
I had to take it apart, line by line, and exegete it, explaining what Paul was truly saying in the original Greek language.
The first three verses seem to tell a message of how we are to grow in Christ, within the calling that the Lord placed on us (myself, it is in the office of a Prophet and to fight against the demonic in Spiritual Warfare), letting those virtues take hold of us, as we “let go” of ourselves more and more, to be conformed to the image of His Son (Rom. 8:29-30).
The next three verses, 4-6, is the KEY to allowing the Lord to do is work within each of us—Paul reminding us that there is ONE (εις) Spirit, that is, the HOLY SPIRIT of God, which enters into each “born again” believer of Christ (Jn. 3:3,5,7), once they truly become His child through faith in Him (Jn. 1:12).
We have that ONE HOPE that keeps us moving forward in our faith (vs. 4),
Along with knowing there is ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, and ONE BAPTISM—not several thousand splinters of beliefs that they enemy of our souls managed to deceive us to do within the Church Body;
Because there is only ONE GOD and FATHER of us ALL (vs. 6), who is the Father of Spirits (Heb. 12:9), to Whom One Day, we ALL must appear before and give an account of ourselves (2 Cor. 5:10) at the Judgment, and how we used the gifts, talents, skills and abilities that He gave unto each of us.
If we choose to HONOR the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in this short time here on Earth, He faithfully promises to reward us at the End of Days, as long as we serve Him with the right heart and mindset (Col. 3:23-34), and by not losing heart and growing weary (Gal. 6:9), while striving to be a good soldier of Jesus Christ (2 Tim. 2:3).
Remember, the Lord CALLED us to be HIS servants. Servants OBEY the Master.
The LORD is the Captain of the Host—we are part of His Holy Army, as are the angels that serve Him.
He IS the ONE God and Father of us ALL—both the angelic and the human spirits—Who is OVER all and THROUGH all and-don’t forget this child of God-IN all (vs. 6).
