“At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people—everyone whose name is found written in the book—will be delivered. ² Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some to everlasting life, others to shame and everlasting contempt.”-Daniel 12:1-2

When the Ukraine war began, I saw Michael stand up. The beginning of the end? I don’t know, but I do know what I saw. And how long will the End Times take? 7 years, 70 years, 700 years? Only God knows 🙂

Prepare, Pray and Be Ready!

Another great devotion from Worthy Briefs :):

“My Friends, it’s (really) not your battle!

Exodus 15:3 The LORD is a man of war; the LORD is his name.

1 Samuel 17:46-47 This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you down and cut off your head. And I will give the dead bodies of the host of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air and to the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, and that all this assembly may know that the LORD saves not with sword and spear. For the battle is the LORD’s, and he will give you into our hand.”

“As we’ve been traveling across the United States, the spiritual warfare is more tangible than ever before. Whereas years ago, it was done in secret, open, and public occult demonic activity is increasing in numerous places. We are facing principalities and powers in heavenly places and here on Earth, and we must fight as the saints of old, with the spiritual weapons of faith, and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God. And ultimately it IS His battle.

This great war, being fought on the battleground of humanity itself, has, from the Lord’s perspective, already been won. Messiah Yeshua’s victory at the cross resounds through history in every direction of time and space. In this sense, the battle is not ours, but the Lord’s, whose triumph over sin, death, and evil was perfectly accomplished there. And since God exists beyond time and space, it’s already over in His world. The very grammar of prophetic utterances, particularly in the OT, we call the “prophetic past”, is written as though the events described have been completed.

As such, in these developing prophetic days, we live in a paradox, “the already, but not yet”. Even as evils increase all around, we’re participating in both… a present war, and a present victory. And so we carry both… responsibility and confidence.

Our confidence stands firmly in the resurrection and authority of the Lord Yeshua as He sits at the right hand of the Father. And since we’re not fighting in our own strength we can declare, “O Lord this is your battle

Our responsibility is firmly rooted in our confidence; not in flesh, chariots, horses, armies, weapons, technologies, noble human intentions, economic power or prosperity, political agendas, constitutions, presidents, nor anything else of this world. Our responsibility lies in our re-presentation of the One we love and serve who lives within us and empowers everything we do of any true value. In the power of the Spirit, with bold confidence, we can declare His eternal truth, the most powerful weapon that has ever or will ever exist.

My Friends, the enemy may attack with lies, deceptions, and threats of every kind, and he will.…your defense is the Lord, what He has spoken, who He is, what He has done, and what He is doing in and through you. Your defense, and your offense, are Yeshua’s victory and His Word, and this present battle truly is the Lord’s.

Take it to heart, “The battle is the Lord’s.” You simply stand declaring His victory and His truth to a sea of humanity desperate for forgiveness, hope, love, and peace.”

This devotion is from a great friend of mine:

As believers, it is our responsibility to pray for America, ALWAYS, not just in times of national crisis. Without diminishing the importance of the Supreme Court or the Congress or the President, they are not the source of our future or our hope. Only God and the Power of the Holy Spirit, working in our lives of citizens can sustain the strength and the future of this nation.

James 5:16 encourages us that “the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much,” and throughout the Bible we see how true these words are. Prayers moved the Hand of God and changes came to nations, leaders, laws, and individuals. The greatest thing anyone can do for God and man IS pray. It is not the only thing, but it IS the chief thing.

First, as God’s people, we must humble ourselves and confess to God the sins of our nation as well as our own lives, our being self-centered, lusts, addictions, the love of the world, and any area in which we are disobeying His Word. God has said, “If My people who are called by My Name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My Face, and turn away from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and forgive their sin and heal their land,” (2 Chronicles 7:14). 

Second, we must pray for our leaders and authorities. Ask our Lord to give His Wisdom, Protection, and Direction to the President, Congress, state and local officials, judges, as well as all those whom God has raised up to lead His People. If we see nonbelievers taking control of the government, passing laws that violate the Laws of God, and jeopardizing our God-given freedoms, our order and duty is to intercede and take action, fervently praying, trusting God to restore His Presence to our nation and communities.

Third, we must pray that our Lord will work in a powerful way in the hearts of believers and people from all walks of life. Only God has the power to free people from the sins that destroy their lives as well as the foundations of righteousness. Fourth, we must pray for families, for school systems, for the military, for our emergency response teams, for our police men and women, our health givers, and for ALL the vital aspects of our society. Be aware of what is going on, and REALLY help them and pray!

My thoughts and prayers are that you stand up for Christ! That you be like Christ! That you also fervently pray with others in His House! This may cause you to suffer and be ridiculed by the world. Whatever you may go through, it will not hold a candle’s light up to the suffering and death on His Cross that our Lord, Jesus Christ went through, just for YOU! THANK GOD HE IS RISEN! Thank God He IS our Refuge in times such as these! Share Him with others. DO NOT HESITATE! In Jesus’ Name. Thy Will be done. Amen. Peace.“

How many times do we look around and see reminders that God always keeps His Promises. Evil may try to use these reminders to it’s own end, but God will always triumph!

Rainbows are one way that God reminds us that He will always keep His Promises. They are everywhere-if we look. I see Rainbows everyday and I think that many can-if they look. Rainbows aren’t something that just appear occassionally in the sky. And Rainbows most certainly do NOT belong to the LGBTQ. They belong to God because He created them to remind us of His Promises. Just as God shares them with us to give us hope 🙂

Rainbows appear in my house and in my life all the time. On my ceiling, on my walls, on the roads, on a road sign, in a cup of water…

But it is my choice to see them and to allow them to remind me that God is here and will never let me down. For God keeps ALL of His Promises. Seeing God’s Rainbows can give us Hope – if we let it. For God wants us to always have hope – because He loves us 🙂

Look for the Rainbow in your life and the times God has kept His Promise to you 🙂

I took this photo one evening when I was sitting on the couch. I was sicker then usual and just not up to doing to much. The sun poured in our backdoor, as it did every night. And then I noticed the Cross on the box. I can’t even begin to express how it filled me with peace and happiness. I wasn’t any better physically, but I was much better spiritually and emotionally 🙂

So often, this is how God works in our daily lives. And we have a choice, to believe or not to believe. There are some who would choose to believe the Cross on the box was simply an accident. A trick of the sun…

But there are some who would realize Jesus was letting us know that He was there with us, and knew exactly what was happening in our life and walking through it with us :).

To believe or not to believe. God gave us the choice and we must choose. If we want a forever life filled with happiness, we must choose Christ 🙂

NO!

There was a time when we had a wonderful public school system. I sent my children to one in their younger years. But the public school system has, sadly, changed. It used to know that some topics such as gay sex, CRT, abortion, morality-these subjects were left up to the parents to teach, because the children belonged to their parents, not the schools!. But now the public schools seem to think the children belong to them! They are wrong!

Now many public schools actively teach students as young as pre-school that the Bible is wrong. And your child, in many cases, is going to believe them! They are their teachers! We, their parents, placed them there to learn. Since our children trust us to only act in their best interest-our children will assume school to be a good place. But it’s not! At least, not anymore.

An education that destroys our children’s faith in Jesus and the Bible is worse than meaningless-it’s harmful. If our children believe them; they may very well grow up, only to end up in hell! All because of what they learned in school!

The sad thing, is that as mothers, we love our children more than we ever thought was possible. Life wasn’t supposed to be like this. We were supposed to have our babies and then send them to school. But our nation has changed and we need to protect our children.

We need to get America’s children out of school now! Whether it is a private school, an online school or homeschool – matters not. But we need to get them out of the cesspool that public schools have become!

Math and Reading will matter little, if they have no faith!

Children are one of God’s Greatest Gifts to us and our own faith in God requires us to protect them!

“Our God is fighting for us. So who can be against us! “When trials come, your Will be done”

“Our God is fighting for us. So wo can be against us. The work is done, your love has won”

These two quotes are from a song called All My Days by Unveiled worship.

Our time is coming, pray and trust! God loves us and His love will win!

Judges 7:16-19 Then he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a shofar into every man’s hand, with empty pitchers, and torches inside the pitchers. And he said to them, “Look at me and do likewise; watch, and when I come to the edge of the camp you shall do as I do: When I blow the shofar, I and all who are with me, then you also blow the shofars on every side of the whole camp, and say, ‘The sword of the LORD and of Gideon!’ ” So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outpost of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just as they had posted the watch; and they blew the shofars and broke the pitchers that were in their hands.

“Another great devotional from Worth Devotionals. You can sign up for them here: Worthy Briefs

“When God called Gideon to lead Israel against their enemies, He wanted to show that a small army empowered by God was more effective than the largest armies. But notice how they fought – without weapons that an army would normally use. They fought with shofars and lamps! They fought with weapons that the world would consider ineffective, yet triumphed mightily over their enemies. They shouted as loud as they could, sounded the shofar, and broke the vessels that held the fire so that their lamps burst through with brightness.

This breaking of the lamps of clay holds a powerful metaphor for us. If we too are “earthen vessels” holding the fire of God – the Spirit of God within us, then a “breaking” of the outer man is necessary for His inner light to burst through. Victory can come out of brokenness. Our old life of self, often called the “old man”, when truly crucified and broken, will give way to the release of the Lord’s Spirit of God in our lives. The death of our Lord has broken the power of our self-life since we were crucified with Him. Walking in that awareness brings light and victory.

Let the love, joy, peace, and all the fruit of the Spirit breakthrough in your life. Your old life of Self has been and is being broken, as Yeshua’s victorious light shines through your earthen vessel”
