Encouragement for Today (11/7/24)

Greetings, love and peace to those who serve the living God or are seeking truth!
Revelation 14:6-7 
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.

Everlasting....

The everlasting gospel, I love that!  
And fear...

Fear God....it's all over the Bible and not just in those words but by the examples we see of all the things He's done in His glorious power!  Let's look at just a few examples (of the MANY) through the scriptures!

* Creation of the heavens and earth
• The Flood
• Plagues of Egypt
• Jonah in the belly of the fish
• Destroying Sodom and Gomorrah 
• Parting the sea
• Jericho victory
• Redemption through Christ
• "Everlasting" gospel
• Hope of eternal life over eternal destruction

How can we not fear the One who can do all He did and whatever else we don't know about Him! 

I've had many church going women say that "fear" of God is only a reverence and awe of Him and while we are to reverence Him and be in awe, they're twisting literal fear into flesh pleasing and softening it up so more people can be deceived into satans synagogues ( churchianity).

Ecclesiastes 12:14 
For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil.

People think they can hide their sins but it will all be revealed one day...in the light.

Matthew 10:26 
Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

I saw this mug in a thrift store and took a picture of it....

...and I edited it.  ​

Matthew 3:2 
And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

I found this mug while I was in there and bought it.

1 Thessalonians 5:18 
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

It has a story behind it.  There was an anabaptist woman in there and I didn't feel led to approach her so I prayed the Lord would open a door.  Soon after I saw her going to the front so I followed and saw she was going to check out so I got in line behind her. She was buying a book and the woman at the register was going on and on about how she loves to read.  The anabaptist woman left and as I was finished checking out I told the woman at the register...."I hear you like to read, hears some good news to read, Christ made the narrow way, seek the kingdom of God".  Then I headed out to find the anabaptist woman and I did, she was sitting in her car on the phone.  I approached the car, waved and smiled and she rolled down her window.  I asked her if she was Mennonite and she said she was and I went on from there. I warned her about Mark 7 man made traditions and her worship being in vain and many other things and all she did was look at me.  The only thing she said was "Jesus was born" when I mentioned Christmas as a lie.  She was pretty cold to me but said she would share the card with her husband.  By the way...I saw the book she was buying.... It was a worldly romance novel. I did my best to warn her and God made a way.

We were blessed with a sunny, brisk, lightly breezy, refreshing day!  We took showers at a park and when it's chilly and you take a shower outside you're extra thankful for hot water! Our portable shower blind is black so the sun warms up on the inside a bit which is nice in the winter but it gets really hot in the summer so we try to do it after dark when possible. We're just thankful either way! ​

Psalm 30:10-12 
Hear, O Lord, and have mercy upon me: Lord, be thou my helper.  Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

America just had their presidential election and many 'so called Christians' were voting and telling others to vote but what does the bible say about this world and how soldiers of the Lord are to be?

2 Timothy 2:4 
No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

If you want to please the Lord, you don't entangle yourself with the affairs of satan's kingdom, amen?  How are you doing in all that...not being entangled in all of what satan has to offer?  I hope the answer is 'well' or good' and I'm here to encourage you on. 

I hope the rest of your day goes well and you seek the kingdom of God!
In the love of Christ,

Hebrews 13:20-21 
Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
