...Dearest WV, Mr. & Mrs. C, Jec & Stephen -<br /><br />You are all very welcome. I do not withhold fellowship to take away but to preserve my energy and sanity in these days ahead. I may have opted for different if I was healthier so choosing my battles wisely is the best advice I can give myself :). May God continue to guide and protect you all as you walk each day.<br /><br />Stephen - continue the wonderful growth. You have been through a lot lately. Please be careful with who may be befriending you these days and ask for discernment. I worry for you dear brother and pray that those who are seeking your wisdom are genuine in nature. Keep doing what you are doing for the Lord. He is using you in ways that you never thought possible :)<br /><br />God Bless!!<br /><br />GGGGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-10223971921659058622012-01-09T08:20:00.636-05:002012-01-09T08:20:00.636-05:00GG, thanks so much for your encouraging words.

Be careful for n...Barnes' Notes on the Bible <br /><br /><br />Be careful for nothing - That is, be not anxious or solicitous about the things of the present life. The word used here - μεριμνᾶτε merimnate - does not mean that we are to exercise no care about worldly matters - no care to preserve our property, or to provide for our families (compare 1 Timothy 5:8); but that there is to be such confidence in God as to free the mind from anxiety, and such a sense of dependence on him as to keep it calm; see the subject explained in the notes on Matthew 6:25. <br /><br />But in everything - Everything in reference to the supply of your wants, and the wants of your families; everything in respect to afflictions, embarrassments, and trials; and everything relating to your spiritual condition. There is nothing which pertains to body, mind, estate, friends, conflicts, losses, trials, hopes, fears, in reference to which we may not go and spread it all out before the Lord. <br />By prayer and supplication - The word rendered "supplication" is a stronger term than the former. It is the mode of prayer which especially arises from the sense of "need," or "want" - from δέομαι deomai, "to want, to need." <br /><br />With thanksgiving - Thanksgiving connected with prayer. We can always find something to be thankful for, no matter what may be the burden of our wants, or the special subject of our petitions. When we pray for the supply of our wants, we may be thankful for that kind providence which has hitherto befriended us; when we pray for restoration from sickness, we may be thankful for the health we have hitherto enjoyed, and for God's merciful interposition in the former days of trial, and for his goodness in now sparing our lives; when we pray that our children and friends may be preserved from danger and death, we may remember how often God has interposed to save them; when, oppressed with a sense of sin, we pray for pardon, we have abundant cause of thanksgiving that there is a glorious way by which we may be saved. The greatest sufferer that lives in this world of redeeming love, and who has the offer of heaven before him, has cause of gratitude. <br />Let your request be made known unto God - Not as if you were to give him information, but to express to him your wants. God needs not to be informed of our necessities, but he requires that we come and express them to him; compare Ezekiel 36:37. "Thus saith the Lord God, I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Israel to do it for them."GGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-58079530298545369692012-01-08T10:37:01.317-05:002012-01-08T10:37:01.317-05:00Being Anxious

Sorry, that is the way he operates. ...(con't)<br /><br />Sorry, that is the way he operates. He needs us for HIS glory and HIS purposes not ours. We are vessels, especially in this last day for HIM, not us. So as I tie this together, remember we may be here for a bit longer and believe me I am just as ready to go home and get away from this as the rest of you, for our own reasons of suffering. But we must do this for the other SAINTS, not us. We need to be praying for them. <br /><br />Those who are being persecuted, chained and shackled and beaten in cold dark places as we speak. Those who are being mutilated and are without food and protection as we speak daily. So many more horrific things that we should count our blessings right now that we don't have showing up at this time. Does that mean we are protected from persecution, no, but we should be thankful right now in this time to prepare for the Lord. We should be witnessing and acting like TRUE REPRESENTATIVES of Christ, not our version of what he should be like :) We should help those who are less fortunate and help them to see by our example what Jesus is like. One can have all the words to copy and paste and play games all they want, but sooner or later we will be standing before the Lord and the truth is going to come out, and I believe in front of each other too. We will have different mind-sets up there. <br /><br />So now is the time to think Heavenly instead of Worldly. Put on the Shield of Armor and begin to prepare for battle. The dreams I had months ago kept showing me how dark and scary these times are going to be. I am not saying those are true and correct but they were just as clear as the rapture dream I was blessed with. It's sad to think we may have to witness this, but praise be to God for sites that are clean like Scotts who have people who care to share in the truth of what Gods word says. People who have taken the time to humble themselves in quite time to help us in these last days and genuinely care about our spiritual well being here.<br /><br />I can recall in these dreams it was scary down to looting of our own homes and crying out to the Lord and just when we didn't think he heard, he came for us. I don't know if it will get this bad but like any good solider fighting for his Lord, his family, his country, you must prepare for battle, not create it. Follow the command of the Lord, not mere men. I hope this helps. I say this all with a loving heart and share what was revealed to me last night after these posts. Use this time to prepare for what might lie ahead.<br /><br /> <br />God Bless!!<br /><br />GGGGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-67837256210083936482012-01-08T10:33:02.112-05:002012-01-08T10:33:02.112-05:00(Con't)
I remember when I first came to this ...(Con't)<br /><br />I remember when I first came to this group it seemed Ally and I were getting the same messages at the same time from the HS. He kept saying to me "Will you lay down your life for me?" It was constant many times during the day and during each week. I bet that went for a month or so.<br /><br />So as I am reading all these great posts I was reminded of just that very thing. "Will we lay down OUR lives for him?" That is a hard thing to reflect on. If we will, we must have UNDERSTANDING and lean on him and not our own, correct? While doing all that, and operating in the HS and not spiritual self, we should come out being anxious for nothing. Again, that is hard. So now we must check ourselves. A while ago, I called it a heart check that the Lord reminded me of. Now it's time to get over SINFUL ourselves, and humbly step before the Lord for this heart check. It doesn't matter what we want to hear, but what does Gods word say about these things? When we are lacking understanding are we turning to mere men or turning to putting that word in our eye-gates, rolling them over in our mind-gates and letting them come out as the Lord intended from our mouth-gates?<br /><br />Are we taking his word, every morsel and rolling it over on our tongues so to speak and savoring the flavor of truth while we wait? I am guilty of this, how about the rest of you? We are so busy these days that we want to treat the Lord like a genie in a bottle or with what I call drive-thru behavior and expect immediate results when we pull up? Did he not lay down his life for us?<br /><br />So as you continue with your talks remember some of what you hear may not be tickling our ears, but may truly be striking us at the core of our being. It's OK. We want that in order to do a proper heart-check. We need to see how off balance from God, the core center of our being that we are. Otherwise we are operating in deception and not truth. We are masking reality and looking for a way to escape. <br /><br />Something in another post was mentioned about loving your neighbor. One of things we have been taught in our teachings for the very reason to love your neighbor is as some have previously mentioned, not to be a proverbial door mat, but to forgive. It is to keep obstruction from resentment building in our hearts as we go through the hurt, disappointment, aggravation, etc. with that 'neighbor'. When we store hurt and resentment, it becomes a blessing blocker. <br /><br />The Lord can't move us onto the next level until we have dealt with that. He can't penetrate our hardened cores of selfishness and deliver the answers if we are blocked. We need all the avenues opened to communicate with him in these last days. We are going to hit some tougher times before we go home. If not, our other Brothers and Sisters Saints will and we need to be receptive instead of blocked to do the will of God to get us all through it and for HIS desired outcome, not ours.GGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-73180106760168605712012-01-08T10:28:24.411-05:002012-01-08T10:28:24.411-05:00Hi WV~

After Scott's site went rouge a bit ago, I have opted to turn toward the Lords word instead of mans mere speculation on these last days. Not to say that being here together in fellowship is not missed; I do miss you all, it is just counterproductive to dabble in things that are not TRUE in word and character which should be honoring the Lord first I am praying for you all, always.<br /><br />Scott, I mean no offense to you and your site, please know that. It is wonderful and truly a Godsend. I know you mentioned you have been very busy and it seems the evil one has used this time to try to destroy all the wonderful work you have done. I am praying for you brother, that you will be able to come back help remind everyone that it's God FIRST and human thinking second :) I am sure he is going to be so proud of you when we get home to review all the work you did to help spread his word. He may be testing you to see what still needs to be refined on here as well.<br /><br />As for the other sites mentioned by others, they are human driven and clearly having their own set of issues as well. I wouldn't put stock into one or the other. Lifting them up as Gods word first, no thank you. It's a nice reference point and resource, but we need to do a little work ourselves and search out what is true in our own personal walk with Christ. That which is pleasing to the Lord. At the end of the day it all comes down to mans mere speculation in these last days which can easily lead to harsh words, lack of love, gossip, slander and pure evil behavior at times. I am not into blogging so that keeps my stress level down quite a bit :)<br /><br />I have to say I am quite shocked after checking out some of the sites referenced here on just how these CHRISTIAN brothers and sisters speak to each other when they are supposed to be true representatives of Christ. See, we are all fallible I guess. We need to choose our sources and our company carefully in these last days. This is spiritual warfare and it is transferable and we must be protected by the word. God wants us to know his word because that my Dear Brothers and Sisters is what will be our ammunition in these battles among the forces flying around us. We need to know the word in order to use it against the evil one. We have our work cut-out and make sure we have a bible handy when all other sources we may be used to go kaputs.<br /><br />IMHO, I believe these topics are coming up because we are all getting ANXIOUS and lacking UNDERSTANDING---because we are truly anxious to return home. :) It's human nature and it's hard. God knows this. He understands. It is very hard when our lives are getting beaten around down here to so many varying degrees. We are all suffering on so many different levels. Our families are suffering greatly too. We were not designed for this at the onset of our relationship with Christ. We were born into an already sin ridden and fallen world. God knows the end to this story well before we came onto the scene. <br /><br />Sure, we should always be doing our part to take those gifts and talents given by the Lord and use them as tools for survival while doing HIS will for HIS children for HIS purpose and for HIS glory in these last days. He has gone before us to know what is coming, we must trust HIM and HIM alone. The people of the world are so busy focusing on lifting themselves up or what is in it for me, that they lost sight of their true leader or never had it to begin with. We can help them with that---as painful as that may be. Didn't someone help us once?GGnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-67837510179613792552012-01-07T22:45:29.401-05:002012-01-07T22:45:29.401-05:00Thanks for the feedback regarding rapture pre or p...Thanks for the feedback regarding rapture pre or post Isaiah 17 discussion. Still hoping to be gone before Isaiah 17. Many will still be saved post rapture. It would certainly be a good witnessing tool as you suggest Caver but I don't really want to be around to see Damascus obliterated. ): <br /><br />I'm not at all dogmatic on this point... but<br />1. USA does not help Israel and the rapture is the best reason IMO<br />2. Jesus returns as a thief in the night so we will not have any heads up warning<br />3. Jesus comes back as in the days of Noah and Business as usual is about to end<br />4. God is beginning to turn his attention back toward Isarel and away from the church<br />5. We are saved by faith and not by sight<br /><br />I certainly hope any "fence sitters" reading aren't waiting for Isaiah 17 to make a decision for Christ. You may not have that opportunity if the rapture occurs first.

But...our testimony of the accuracy of His word and prophecy will win many converts. <br /><br />That's why I think we will be here...to win the last possible Brother and Sister.Caverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04501263352164217716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-67266813345223544302012-01-07T20:45:38.753-05:002012-01-07T20:45:38.753-05:00Hi Brother WV, :)
Whew, sorry for the delay in an...Hi Brother WV, :)<br /> Whew, sorry for the delay in answering…just finished up work for the evening.<br /> Yes, there is the option of the Rapture, as it is imminent. The closer we get to these events, the more we see. For example, never anticipated God allowing the evil plotting nations that surround Israel, to have the purest of their evil rise to the surface to take over their governments. It truly is amazing, because to me its almost like the final touches that God is putting in place. I keep seeing that God is allowing that purest of evil to rise to the surface in these nations, in preparation of Him wiping them out. His FULL Judgment is coming to them very soon for sure. God had Ezekiel devote 8 Chapters to the destruction of some of these nations surrounding Israel, and they have yet to be fulfilled in full. Whew…heavy duty Judgment is coming to Jordan, Gaza, Lebanon and Egypt.<br /> Yes Brother, I agree…well in part. :) Isaiah 17 begins with God observing the battle. First Damascus, then Jordan, then the West Bank. Israel is fighting alone, and takes Syrian prisoners. Then, then dear Brother, something horrendous happens, that is catastrophic to Israel. It is only at the very, very end, when Israel already suffering greatly (God says there is “desolation”), only then does God step in. He goes from observing, to directly participating. That is at the end of Isaiah 17 Brother, and that is the beginning of His return to His People, not in full, but the beginning.<br /> By the end of Ezekiel 38-39, God is fully back with His People. Restoring His Covenant with them, by then Brother, we the Church are surely gone! Praise God!<br /><br /> God Bless You Brother! :)Mrs.Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-20131795052818564312012-01-07T19:54:33.553-05:002012-01-07T19:54:33.553-05:00Oh, and I too very much remember the gas lines and...Oh, and I too very much remember the gas lines and getting in line around 4:00 am so you would be there when the gas station opened (on 'even' or 'odd' days)...That was a nightmare and for the life of me, I couldn't understand why we couldn't drill for enough oil here in the US since we have it in abundance....That was ~ 35 years ago and I still wonder the same thing.

It was like a "loaves and fishes" story, right out of the Bible. <br /><br />This gave rise to the early 70's song:<br />"Give me oil /gas in my Ford,<br />keep me trucking for the Lord. <br />Keep me trucking til the break of day."<br /><br />If we do experience some of the (pre)tribulation, God is able to take care of His own, if they are doing his Will/work. <br /><br />DianeDianenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3432851080052468710.post-63276907516379454802012-01-07T12:22:04.866-05:002012-01-07T12:22:04.866-05:00Oh ill be around....mostly on weekends or when i h...Oh ill be around....mostly on weekends or when i have the occasional question, particularly when a news story doesn't make prophetic or practical sense. besides, i think e.i, mrs C, nofog and caver cover everything very well, (Tho I'm not sure i agree with Mrs C and caver on psalm 83 but we'll find out very soon), I'm sure ull agree they cover everything very thoroughly and scholarly.hartdawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14554733830775640375noreply@blogger.com
