KNOW THE WORD

4/12/24:  KNOW THE WORD

The Apostle Paul wrote these Words to the young minister, Timothy:

“Now the Spirit speaks expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils; speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot iron; forbidding to marry and commanding to abstain from meats, which God has created to be received with thanksgiving of those who believe and know the truth” 1 Timothy 4:1-3 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

He also admonished him to study the Word of Truth:

“Be diligent in presenting yourself unto God as a qualified worker, who is not ashamed, correctly dividing the Word of Truth” 2 Timothy 2:15 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

Paul forewarned Timothy to beware of those who depart from the faith, who were also in authority, because they “forbid to marry” and “command to abstain from meats,” who are undoubtedly members of the Catholic abomination, according to the description of the false teachings listed here; but Catholics aren’t the only ones. There are false prophets and teachers all over the world today, who have polluted the Word of Truth with their own interpretations of God’s Holy Word.

There are ministers today who uphold homosexuality and the entire LGBTQ lifestyles, even though the Word of God clearly teaches that these sins are abominable and those who commit such sins will not enter into the Kingdom of God:

“You shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind, it is an abomination” Leviticus 18:22 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

“The woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man, neither shall a man put on a woman’s garment, for all who do so are an abomination to the Lord your God” Deuteronomy 22:5 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

“For this cause (refusing to obey God’s Word and defying it), God gave them up to vile affections, for even their women did change the natural use (of men) into that which is against nature; and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another, men with men working that which is indecent, receiving the recompense of their deception, which is mandatory (like AIDS and monkeypox). And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting” Romans 1:26-28 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

“If any man defiles the temple of God (his body, as with sexual sins), him shall God destroy, for the temple of God is holy, which temple you are” 1 Corinthians 3:17 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

“Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the Kingdom of God? Do not be deceived, neither fornicators (unlawful sexual behavior), nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate (men acting like women), nor abusers of themselves with mankind (homosexuals)” 1 Corinthians 6:9 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

The Word also instructs us,

“So then every one of us shall give an account of himself to God” Romans 14:12

“And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God and the books were opened, and another book was opened, which is the Book of Life, and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works” Revelation 20:12

So then, if we are all judged individually, and no one else will be judged in our place, in our behalf, how important do you suppose it is that we each know the Word of God for ourselves, and not depend solely upon others to give us the interpretation of God’s Holy Word? No one can interpret the Word of God correctly without the Holy Spirit giving him the interpretation, which is why we also need to be filled with the Spirit of God. Jesus said to His Apostles:

“And I will pray to the Father and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever, even the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it doesn’t see Him, neither knows Him, but you know Him, for He dwells with you and shall be in you” John 14:17

Jesus spoke concerning the Holy Ghost, who would come upon the Apostles, on those who gathered in an upper room in Jerusalem, as Jesus instructed them to do before He departed into heaven:

“And being assembled together with them, (Jesus) commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, who, He said, you have heard of Me; for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days from now” Acts 1:4-5

Some, who observed what happened to the Apostles, asked Peter, and those with him, what they should do. Peter answered them:

“Then Peter said to them, Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost; for the promise is unto you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call” Acts 2:38-39

Most “Christian” ministers do not even believe that the gift of the Holy Ghost is for us today and they do not teach that Christians can be filled with the Holy Ghost, which is obviously contrary to what Peter stated above: “for the promise (the gift of the Holy Ghost) is unto you and to your children and to all who are afar off” and that means every Christian today.

I could go on and on about the false doctrines being taught in the world today, but the facts simply boil down to this: all of God’s people need to read and understand the Word of God for themselves, because there are many false prophets and teachers in the world and the Word says many will be deceived before Christ returns:

“For false Christs and false prophets shall arise, who shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect” Matthew 24:24

Jesus was speaking to His Apostles here about the deceivers of the last days, preceding His return, our generation. Take heed, people of God; know God’s Holy Word for yourselves; read it and study it and know it thoroughly, so no one can deceive you in these last days. You are responsible to compare what God has taught you in His Word, with those who minister the Word to you. Even ministers listen to other ministers, as they study, so we can all learn more from one another. We are all called to be among the holy priesthood:

“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people, that you should show forth the praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light” 1 Peter 2:9

Saints, be filled with the Holy Ghost and know the Word of God, especially in these last days.

Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior, unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate, having no conscience (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late, because we have no guarantee of tomorrow.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.

“The Spirit and the bride say, Come; and let him who hears say, Come; and let him that is athirst come, and whosoever will, let him take of the water of life freely” Revelation 22:17

BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

Before He ascended into heaven, Jesus instructed His Apostles to wait in Jerusalem for the the Holy Spirit to come upon them:

“And being assembled together with them (His Apostles), He commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which He said, you have heard of Me; for John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence…You shall receive power after the Holy Ghost is come upon you and you shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea, in Samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth” Acts 1:4-5, 8.

 The Apostles were already Christians, of course, when they went to the upper room in Jerusalem and waited for the Holy Ghost to come upon them, as Jesus instructed them to do:

 “And when the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they (the Apostles and others) were all with one accord in one place and suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the house where they were sitting and there appeared unto them cloven tongues like fire and it sat upon each of them and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance…And they were all (others standing by) amazed and were in doubt, saying one to another, What does this mean? Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. But Peter, standing up with the eleven (other Apostles), lifted up his voice and said to them, You men of Judaea and all you who dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you and hearken to my words, for these are not drunk as you suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day, but this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel: And it should come to pass in the last days, says God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy and your young men shall see visions and your old men shall dream dreams; and on My servants and on My handmaidens I will pour out in those days of My Spirit and they shall prophesy Acts 2:1-4, 12-18.

 The Word of God continues:

“Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart and said to Peter and the rest of the Apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, for the promise is unto you and to your children and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call” Acts 2:37-39.

 Some time later, the Apostle Paul traveled to Ephesus and while there, he came across disciples and asked them if they had received the Holy Ghost since they believed. They said they hadn’t even heard of the Holy Ghost. They had only been baptized by John, believing in “Him who would come, Jesus.” They were then baptized in the name of Jesus, and when Paul laid his hands on them, they received the Holy Ghost and they spoke in tongues and prophesied (Acts 19).

There are many other passages of scripture that support the gift of the Holy Ghost, which a person can receive of God after they have repented, with the evidence of speaking in other tongues, which evidence may be a specific language known on earth, or could be an entirely different language that no one knows, except God and those who prophesy and interpret tongues (1 Corinthians 12:7-11; 1 Corinthians 14).

 Jesus told His apostles to wait for the Holy Spirit in Jerusalem, so they would receive power from God. The scriptures tell us what the people of God can do for God’s service, if they are filled with the Holy Ghost:

“And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel (for the coming Messiah-Savior), and the Holy Ghost was upon him and it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ (Messiah-Savior). And he came by the Spirit into the temple and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for Him after the custom of the law, then he took Him in his arms and blessed God and said, Lord, now let Your servant depart in peace, according to Your Word, for My eyes have seen Your salvation” Luke 2:25-30.

 Do you want to be used of God? You need the gift of the Holy Ghost for power and God’s service, especially in these last days. The days are becoming so evil that “except those days be shortened, no flesh would be saved” (Matthew 24:22-24). If you plan to be ready to be “caught up” (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18) when that hour comes, you need to be filled with the Holy Ghost. Jesus is calling His people to “wait for the promise of the Father” (Acts 1:4) today, just as He told His Apostles to wait for the promise, because it was not only for the Apostles, “For the promise is unto you and to your children and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call” Acts 1:39.

Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior, unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate, having no conscience (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late, because we have no guarantee of tomorrow.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away.

GOD SPEAKS TO US IN DREAMS

GOD SPEAKS TO US IN DREAMS

I had three dreams this morning and I am going to share one of them with readers, because that’s what God wants me to do. The Lord frequently speaks to me through my dreams. He spoke directly to me in 1996, but more often He speaks to me through dreams, or in that still small voice of perception in my heart (1 Kings 19:11-13), that some of you might be familiar with. God gave King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon dreams that Daniel, the man of God, had to interpret for him, because Nebuchadnezzar wasn’t a godly man. That is not the case with the people of God. If you have a dream, or dreams, that you don’t understand, you need only ask God for the interpretation and He will give it to you, if you are faithful and believe that He will. These principles are in the Word of God:

“Why do you strive against Him (God)? For He does not give an account of any of His matters. God speaks once, yes twice, yet man does not perceive it. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on men in slumberings upon the bed, then He opens the ears of men and seals their instruction, that He may withdraw man from his purpose and hide pride from man. He keeps back his soul from the pit and his life from perishing by the sword (only if we pay attention when He speaks!)” Job 33:13-18

PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR DREAMS

“The king (Nebuchadnezzar) answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar (his Babylonian name), Are you able to make known to me the dream which I have seen and the interpretation of it? Daniel answered in the presence of the king and said, The secret which the king has demanded, the wise men, astrologers, magicians and soothsayers cannot show to the king; but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets and makes known to King Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Your dream and the visions of your head upon your bed are these:…” Daniel 2:26-28

MY DREAM

I dreamed I walked up to a man sitting in a wheelchair and I saw a plump, but beautiful, nurse sitting on his lap. As I approached them, the nurse stood up and went back to work. I sat down next to the man for a moment and he was dazed; he didn’t say anything, but sat motionless.

I always pray and ask God for the interpretation of my dreams. I never discount any dream, because I have also prayed that God will not allow satan to confuse me, or invade my sleep with anything evil, so I trust God answers that prayer and I take all of my dreams seriously and the Lord speaks to me frequently in my dreams. Now you may not find anything spiritual, or significant about that dream I just shared with you. Honestly, neither did I, until I prayed and started summarizing it. When I pray for the interpretation of my dream(s), I always bind the devil from interfering with the interpretation; I bind the carnal mind from interfering with the interpretation of my dreams; and I ask God to touch my heart and my mind, as I read the dream I have written and as I summarize it; I ask Him to write through me what the interpretation of the dream is. He always answers those prayers. In this instance also, the Lord revealed to me the mystery of the dream above.

INTERPRETATION

The man in the wheelchair represents the people of society (except the people of God), many of whom are paralyzed with fear about what is happening before their eyes. First, the “plandemic,” as they were “locked down” and so many were demolished financially; then food, gas, housing, utilities (up over 300%) and commodities are skyrocketing, while many have “lost their shirts” and are even homeless today. The plump, beautiful nurse represents the deceiving elite, oligarchs, globalists, Big Pharma, the medical industry facade, pedophiles, homosexuals and all the Liberal Luciferian Lunatics (LLLs) that are in control of America, and they are fattened (as in the plump nurse) while plundering Americans of their money, jobs (record job losses), homes (record foreclosures), food (record food prices), transportation (record car repossessions)… and the list goes on… (Notice that the evil nurse had to get up and leave when I approached. She also represents the fake healthcare system, the Center for Disease Control and Big Pharma.) They are destroying people and people don’t know what to do, so they are in a daze emotionally. People are just trying to survive from day to day, but they don’t have a plan and they live in fear of tomorrow, as we also have just seen the second and third greatest bank collapses in history. At the same time our nation is going bankrupt and our military strength has been drastically depleted. These LLLs are sending our munitions and billions of dollars to the Ukraine, where they have stashed their biolabs for killing people and the Russians have reported finding kidnapped children in very bad health. Their agenda boils down to DEPOPULATION and other nations are involved, not just the US. More people have been killed by the COVID vaccines and the “medical treatments” they received in hospitals, than by the COVID virus, which is the deliberate genocide of not only Americans, but people throughout the world. The first tenet of the Georgia Guidestones foretold this was coming.

Dr Ardis explains the venom that has been found in the COVID vaccines and what it means to your health, and Senator Rand Paul questions Dr Anthony Fauci about his part in “causing the deaths of four million people around the world,” with other astonishing facts presented in the following video:

If the video doesn’t play, view it on Rumble: https://rumble.com/v26g9jm-stew-peters-presents-covenom-series-vol.-1.html

I haven’t seen the continuing series put out by Stew Peters yet, but I believe they should be worth viewing, because the facts presented so far by many accredited physicians and scientists, including Nobel Prize-winning virologist Luc Montagnier, who discovered HIV, can’t be denied (Luc Montagnier ended up dead after he publicly called on all physicians to STOP VACCINATING PATIENTS WITH COVID VACCINES). What Senator Rand Paul didn’t even mention, as he questioned Fauci at a Senate hearing, was Fauci’s patents on the virus and many variants, which adds to his multibillion-dollar cache!

If you trust LLL government officials, the medical industry facade (NOT including holistic practitioners/modalities), Big Pharma… that are all deliberately destroying the lives of the American people, and populations around the world, you are sadly deceived and you need to pay more attention to the Holy Word of God and prophecy:

“These two things shall come to you suddenly in one day, the loss of children and widowhood; they shall come fully upon you for the multitude of your sorceries (original Hebrew: kshphik = enchantments and drugs/medicine/vaccines, not holistic) and for the power of your great spells (illusions)” Isaiah 47:9 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

“Neither did they repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries (original Greek: pharmakeia = man made drugs/pharmacist), nor of their fornication (illicit sexual behavior, like pedophilia, transgenderism and homosexuality), nor of their thefts (elite conspirators keeping populations poor/taxation)” Revelation 9:21 (Elim אֵילִם Translation)

“The nations were angry and Your wrath has come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged and that You should give reward to Your servants, the prophets, the saints and those who fear Your name, small and great, and should destroy those who destroy the earth” Revelation 11:18 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

The people of God can trust in Him for healing:

“But He was pierced (מְחֹלָ֣ל) for our transgressions (מִפְּשָׁעֵ֔נוּ), bruised (מְדֻכָּ֖א) for our iniquities (מֵֽעֲוֹֽנוֹתֵ֑ינוּ); the chastisement (מוּסַ֚ר) of our peace (שְׁלוֹמֵ֙) was on Him and with His stripes (וּבַֽחֲבֻֽרָת֖וֹ) we were healed (נִרְפָּא־לָֽנוּ)” Isaiah 53:5 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

Did you get that, “with His stripes we ‘were’ healed?” It’s already done, taken care of; you only need to believe it and receive it, without doubting:

“But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering, for he who wavers is like a wave of the sea, driven with the wind and tossed, for let not that man think he shall receive anything of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.” James 1:6-8 (ET – Elim אֵילִם Translation)

The COVID outbreak and vaccine genocide are a fulfillment of prophecy. See the Creating Human Abominations, Diseases In Labs prophecy: https://signswonders.home.blog/2019/05/15/5-15-19-update-creating-human-abominations-diseases-in-labs/

The vaccine mandate was also a fulfillment of prophecy. See the Mandatory Vaccines prophecy: https://signswonders.home.blog/2021/01/08/1-8-21-update-mandatory-vaccines-8th-pestilence/

---

Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior, unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate, having no conscience (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late, because we have no guarantee of tomorrow.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away.

Who Is the Bride of Christ? – Part 6

Please be advised that WordPress includes advertisements on this site; they are not selected by the publisher

 Peacock lying down (asleep)

I thought Part 5 was the last of this series, but apparently not. The Word admonishes us not to state our plans (or as in this case, to finalize something) without saying, “If the Lord wills” (James 4:15). That was my error, because the Lord gave me another message during our holy convocation. There are five messages preceding this one, this being the sixth message the Lord gave me, after showing me six variations of a constellation in the form of a peacock, which represents the Bride of Christ, the great “speckled bird” (Jeremiah 12:9 – see Part 2 for emphasis on what the “speckled bird” means).

If you haven’t already done so, please read the first five messages, as follows, then return to this one, which is a continuation and perhaps the final message of the preceding five in this series:

https://sermonsfromgod.wordpress.com/2020/03/03/who-is-the-bride-of-christ/

https://sermonsfromgod.wordpress.com/2020/03/28/who-is-the-bride-of-christ-part-2/

https://sermonsfromgod.wordpress.com/2020/04/16/who-is-the-bride-of-christ-part-3/

https://sermonsfromgod.wordpress.com/2020/05/26/who-is-the-bride-of-christ-part-4/

https://sermonsfromgod.wordpress.com/2022/05/16/the-great-speckled-bird-on-one-leg%ef%bf%bc/

As I was praying and looking out my east window, I saw the peacock constellation again, which the Lord showed me when He gave me the preceding messages. This time, the peacock was lying down. The Lord ministered to my heart that His Church, in general, is “asleep.” Not all churches are asleep, but most. If you attend a Church that is alive with the Holy Spirit in your midst, you are truly blessed!

This new constellation brought my mind straight to the Lord’s parable of the Ten Virgins (Matthew 25). As you remember, there were 10 virgins and five of them were wise, having oil in their lamps, but the remaining five were foolish; they had run out of oil. What is oil? It represents the Holy Spirit in scripture. When someone was anointed with oil, that was symbolic of their anointing by the Holy Spirit.

All of the virgins had fallen asleep, because the bridegroom tarried. As we can see today, the Lord has certainly tarried. I don’t know how much worse it can get, after California Governor Gavin Newsom just signed a bill that allows people to kill their babies up to 28 days after birth without question! The satanists are having a field day in California! Some other states are in line to do the same. Children are being taught in public schools that if they are a girl, they might not be a girl; and boys might not be boys! They are confusing children about their gender, rearing up homosexuals, bisexuals and transgender abominations, which is evil (please visit the Home Education page for more information about these atrocities and your rights to home educate your children and the Home School Legal Defense Association [HSLDA], which protects your rights for a nominal membership fee.) The bridegroom tarried, so all of the virgins fell asleep; but at the wake-up call, five had oil and were immediately ready to go; the other five missed the bridegroom and the marriage supper of the Lamb (Revelation 19:9) while they went to get oil.

Most pastors today refuse to allow the Holy Spirit to move during services. They want to be in control and if someone is moved to speak in tongues and, or give the interpretation of tongues, they see this as an affront to their administration, out of order. They don’t trust the spiritual condition of the parishioner to hear from God, or to be able to speak, or praise the Lord in a certain way under the anointing and power of the Holy Spirit. If a member gets excited and praises God out loud, this is seen as being out of order. These churches are dry and the members are spiritually asleep when the Spirit of God cannot move in their midst.

Praising the Lord with all of one’s heart is not out of order. We are to gather together to praise the Lord with all of our heart. The Word tells us to allow the Holy Spirit to move in an orderly fashion, but not to quench the Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19), that if one speaks in tongues, there should be an interpreter of tongues in the Church:

“I wish you all spoke with tongues, but even more that you prophesied, for he who prophesies is greater than he who speaks with tongues, unless indeed he interprets, that the church may receive edification” 1 Corinthians 14:5

“Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret” 1 Corinthians 14:13

Paul goes on to explain in 1 Corinthians 14 how this should be done in order, not erratically; but to prohibit the move of the Holy Spirit altogether is the same as telling the Lord He is not wanted in the services.

Pastors, youth leaders and other leaders of the Church, please pray for the members and instruct them in the Word, but don’t shut them down and, moreover, don’t offend the Holy Spirit!

Even if you have a loud band and some eloquent teaching, if the Holy Spirit isn’t welcome in the church, you are headed for a spiritual sleep that can be deadly. Don’t mistake excitement for the move of the Holy Spirit; they may look alike to you, but some people are capable of shouting themselves all the way to hell, quite frankly.

If you have a great band and some eloquent speakers, but the pastor and members aren’t using the following critical Kingdom Keys, beware:

• Are you meeting with God in prayer on a regular basis? For example, I have three set times to pray each day, the Fourth Watch early in the morning, midday praise and thanksgiving, and the First Watch at sunset. My midday praise/thanksgiving time is flexible, but my time set aside for prayer during the early morning and at sunset are not. I don’t allow anything to interrupt the First and Fourth Watch Holy Convocations; they are God’s time and I don’t allow anything to interfere with my appointments with Him. As others understand you have a set time with God and that time can’t be interrupted, it also puts forth an example to them how important God is in your life, that you place Him first, above all things. God answers all of my prayers and I believe that setting these priorities for prayer is key.
• Are you witnessing to the lost at every opportunity, especially to your own family members? God called every single one of His disciples to be witnesses. When we fail to witness to others we are essentially saying, “I don’t care whether you are saved, or not. I could care less if you end up in hell forever!” We have failed to follow God’s commandment, if we fail to witness (Matthew 24:14; Mark 16:15; Acts 1:8).
• Are you paying your tithes and offerings? If we withhold from God what belongs to Him already, we are robbers, thieves (Malachi 3:8-12). Our offerings constitute our gifts to God, besides our tithes, to express our gratitude for all that He has done for us. If we give sparingly, we will reap sparingly (2 Corinthians 9:6). The Word says that if we do this, “All nations will call you blessed, for you will be a delightful land, says the Lord of hosts” Malachi 3:12. Another promise to those who pay their tithes and offerings is: “Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house and try Me now in this, says the Lord of hosts, if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it; and I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, so that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground, nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field, says the Lord of hosts” Malachi 3:10-11.
• Do you help the poor when you encounter them? People say the poor are likely to buy alcohol and drugs with the money, so they might buy them a sandwich, but never give money. However the Lord leads is how we should give, but make sure it’s the Lord. Everyone needs water, food, shelter, clothes, and perhaps diapers, baby food and baby clothes – and a sandwich only covers one of many things people need, and a sandwich doesn’t always suffice. For example, I give cash, but I warn beggars that what I am giving them belongs to God, so they need to make certain they don’t use the money for anything bad, or it will be a curse to them, instead of a blessing. I always have a gospel tract on hand to give to them as well. Helping to meet needs without directing souls to Christ is a refreshment on their way to hell. Rescue souls. Keep gospel tracts on hand at all times, saints.

These are some of the things that bring the anointing of the Holy Spirit upon us, as Christians. Those who attend church regularly, but are not diligent in prayer, praise, witnessing and giving, are still very much in need of revival; they are spiritually asleep and need an awakening, before the Lord comes for His Church and before it’s too late.

Jesus said,

“Blessed are those servants whom the Master, when He comes, will find watching. Assuredly, I say to you that He will gird Himself and have them sit down to eat and will come and serve them” Luke 12:37

Salvation is offered to everyone who repents of sin and receives Jesus as their Lord and Savior, unless a person crosses a line with God, to the point of becoming reprobate, having no conscience (Romans 1:21-32; Hebrews 6:4-6). Now is the time of salvation for everyone; tomorrow, or even the next hour, could be too late.

Hundreds of Bible prophecies have been fulfilled and those remaining shall surely come to pass. Are you prepared to stand before God and give an account of the life you have lived on this earth (Revelation 20:12-15)? If not, salvation is only a prayer away. Please visit the How Can I Be Saved page – your eternal destiny depends on it. God bless you.
