BEHOLD I AM COMING

It’s not about eggs, but about the excellent story.

It’s not about bunnies, but the honey from heaven.

It’s not about how fancy we can dress,

But how we can be clothed in His righteousness.

It’s not about all the food we can eat,

But the Bread that came from heaven.

It’s not about doing our own thing,

But It’s about freely giving because He has given.

He gave up so much for us.

He had a place of more. More than what we call paradise.

A place where there was NO pain and yet He endured the greatest.

A place where He was honored and praised

And then suddenly He was mocked and rejected and despised.

He could speak a word and have anything He wanted,

Yet, he gave it all up for us.

No one took His life.

He gave it freely.

Seeing ahead before it happened

He knew what it would be,

Yet, He chose to take it anyway.

There is something so overlooked this time of year.

During the Passover, before he was crucified,

Jesus did something so sweet,

He said to His disciples, family, and friends

“I will not drink from the fruit of the vine again,

until we are all together.”

He is waiting so patiently for His pure spotless Bride,

(The church, body of believers), to share in His grand celebration with Him.

Also, He is waiting as long as He can for any who would

Like to be a part of that celebration, by believing in what He did!

What’s the next step after “It is finished!” “Behold I am coming!”

For years I have been fascinated with deer.  I wrote a devotional for a church for nine years and the title of the devotional was “GOOD THIRSTY MORNING” after Psalm 42.  Then a few weeks ago, I live in the heart of a big Metropolis and five deer were in my back yard just three feet from me.  I have been told that it is extremely unheard of for a male deer with antlers to be in the city, but they came to me. There was a daddy deer, a mama deer, and three babies.  Every morning now I go to my window around 6:00 to 6:30 am to see if they are there.  I haven’t seen them since and it feels like I’ve lost some dear friends.  I want so much to see them again. 

Another exciting factor about this is that there were five of them.  I love the number five because biblical numerology speaks of five as the number for grace.

Habakkuk 3:19 The Lord GOD is my strength, and He has made my feet like hinds’ feet and makes me walk on my high places.  (For the choir director, on my stringed instruments.)

Psalm 18:31-33 (31) for who is God, but the LORD?  And who is a rock, except our God? (32) The God who girds me with strength and makes my way blameless?  (33) He makes my feet like hinds’ feet, and sets me upon my high places.

II Samuel 22:29-34 (29) “For You are my lamp, O LORD; And the LORD illumines my darkness.  (30) “For by You I can run upon a troop; By my God, I can leap over a wall.  (31) “As for God, His way is blameless; the word of the LORD is tested; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.  (32) “For who is God, besides the LORD? And who is a rock, besides our God? (33) “God is my strong fortress, And He sets the blameless in His way.  (34) “He makes my feet like hinds’ feet, and sets me on my high places.

Psalm 42:1 “As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants for You, O God.”

As I mentioned earlier the devotional I wrote was: “Good Thirsty Morning”, Psalm 42:1 is the scripture I named it after.  Each morning our souls should thirst after The Lord our God!  How thirsty is your soul?

The Saggy Pants Saga

Saggy pants got you down?  The pun is definitely intended.   Once upon a time back in the ’40s poor people couldn’t afford belts or even a rope to keep their pants up and low and behold they sagged down exposing the otherwise private derriere.  Don’t tell the generation today they may not want to expose anymore.

From saggy to criminal this is what lawmakers are addressing in many states.  While in jail they have a nice jumpsuit that has an elastic waistband to help them keep their pants up. Even an American Idol hopeful Larry Platt has a problem with the underwear exposed wearers.

Some say that we shouldn’t be allowed to tell people what to wear.  Does that mean we can’t tell them what not to wear?  Excuse me I’m not sure just how to phrase what I mean here.  I mean that soon people will be wearing nothing. Anyway, I guess it will be a case of what to wear and literally, or not to wear.

How far can we push the pants down so to speak?  What kind of society do we want?  One that is cheap or rampant with rebellion or one that follows decency?

I guess it all boils down to a case and literally a case of what are we going to protect here, the people who love indecency.  Do we draw the line on decency or do we say anything goes including nudity?  Even God clothed Adam and Eve with animal skins to cover their nakedness.

From the banking industry to the Presidency corruption is rampant. It doesn’t seem to even matter if the corruption is exposed, because these Powerful organizations control everything.

Most common people who end up finding out about these people of power end up dead.  Unless you are among the elite group you do not have a chance.

If you have access to the internet and can get on YouTube you can see what is truly going on right under our noses.  You have an Ex-Governor who was also a Navy Seal going around the country exposing everything.  Just do a little research and see what you and I are allowing to go on.  No one seems to be powerful enough to stop it.

The President does not rule the country alone.  We have the judicial branch of government, the legislative branch of government, and the executive branch of government.   The constitution keeps one branch from having more power than the others.  Under these past few administrations, they seem to have changed the rules and let the judicial make the laws.  This was not so in the beginning or still should not be.

The job of the legislative branch is comprised of the Senate and the House of Representatives.  They are to make the laws and vote on whether a bill should be passed as a law.  This is why it is so important that the American people search out what these bills say in totality. They approve whether someone should be a judge.  They pass the budget.  They alone have the power to declare war.  These are written in the constitution.   This is in Article I of the constitution.

The job of the judicial branch is to interpret laws and punish lawbreakers, NOT make the laws!  This is in Article III.  I wonder why some of these great men in power have murdered people not been sentenced?

The job of the executive branch is comprised of the President and his cabinet who appoints.  This is in Article II.  Some have been dangerously chosen.  His job is to appoint judges, make the state of the union address, send bills to congress.  He also commands armed forces (scary) meets with leaders of other nations. (This President meets with his Muslim friends.) Carries out and enforces laws.  (Quaking in my boots)   The President, Vice President, and all civil Officers of the United States shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.  Gee, does that mean crimes of murder?  He really does not have as much to do with running the country as people think.  Here are few other tidbits of information from the constitution: The President of the Senate shall, in the Presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the Certificates, and the Votes shall then be counted.   Hmm has this been happening during our elections?  No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

The last scary thing to mention in this blog is there are several camps set up with fences like concentration camps all around the United States.  Coffins by this 1,000’s have been exposed and then moved before they could get back to take pictures of them.  Planes are dropping things in the air to make us sick.  These elite groups of people of power are getting ready to wipe us out and put us all in concentration camps.  Just so happens these camps are set up near railroads.  Does this sound familiar to Hitler?

No, I am not a nut and if you do your homework you will find that out.  Yes in doing research you will find corruption to be everywhere.

Are you fearing, all these atrocities that our Supreme Court Justices have approved?  Our natural response is to fear these things happening, but God has the last word.  The Bible tells us that when we see these things happening we are to lift up our heads for OUR redemption draws near.  Be aware God is not mocked and whatsoever we sow that will we reap!  These are not surprises for the bible also tells us these things will happen.  This doesn’t take God by surprise…When Jesus appears to take His church home and then comes the judgment seat of God “EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW” in heaven and earth at the name of Jesus! 

All the homosexuals and the lesbians WILL Bow their knees to Jesus!  If your name is NOT found in the Lamb’s book of life, you WILL be thrown into everlasting judgment prepared for the devil and his angels.

Take a look at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3SEJvL8txs.  I implore you to think about this seriously and change your direction.

God does not want anyone to go to hell.  His word also tells us that He is long suffering not willing that any should perish, but that all should be saved.  This is why He hasn’t blown us off the face of the earth especially right now.  God loves the homosexual and the lesbian, but He HATES their SIN! 

To those that do good deeds and never do any of these above type sins, please listen to this.  It doesn’t matter how good you are or how many good deeds you do, you also WILL find yourself in hell for eternity, because the bible says, “Jesus is THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE and no one comes to the Father but through Him!”  Take it or leave it, it is your choice!  If you find yourself in hell, it is what you chose!

It is not to late give your life over to the Lord He is waiting to welcome you with open arms.  You must believe that Jesus is the Way, The Truth and the Life.  That He died in your place.  Hope to see you in heaven!

Let me see he wasn’t around for Bengazi, Paris march, and drove right by VA hospital on his way to speak on a new initiative lowering federal mortgage insurance premiums.  Stopping in to visit the wounded soldiers who fought so he could have the right to be President was not important enough for him.

Obama made a speech after American photojournalist James Foley was beheaded in August by a member of the Islamic State, but on the day the heinous crime was committed, and he knew about it he chose to go golfing.

After the Malaysia Airlines jet went down over Ukraine, killing nearly 300 people, it didn’t stop the president from attending a fundraising event for the Democratic National Committee in New York that evening.  From there he launched into a 16-minute speech about transportation projects he wanted Republicans to fund, complaining bitterly about their objections to his end-runs around the federal legislature.

The 150th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address occurred during the second term of our country’s first black president who was not even present for the monumental event. A moment in history that because he was the 1^st black President would have held great significance, instead he chose to go to the Four Seasons Hotel to address The Wall Street Journal CEO Council’s annual meeting and talk about the economy.  It was this prior President who gave the black people their freedom.  What a slap in the face.

Natalie Heimel and her fiancé, Edward Mallue Jr., a pair of captains in the Army, received two letters from President Obama in less than 24 hours as they prepared for their wedding ceremony at Kaneohe Klipper Golf Course in Hawaii. The first, a nicely worded regretful but congratulatory RSVP to their wedding invite… and the second, as Bloomberg reports, informing them that their wedding would have to be moved since President Obama wanted to play golf there.

Check out this article from Keith Koffler: It’s D-Day and President Obama is hitting the beaches – of sunny California!

Instead of scheduling a brief event to mark the 68th anniversary of America’s brutal landing on the shores of Normandy, Obama was on his way to San Francisco, where he held two fundraisers before moving on to Beverly Hills to stage two more.

Obama failed to mark D-Day with either a speech or a written proclamation both last year and the year before. He did give a speech in 2009, the 65th anniversary of the event.

First Lady Michelle Obama, who has made much of her “Joining Forces” campaign to support military families, also had nothing planned for D-Day. She was in New York City for a fundraiser and then in Philadelphia to meet with campaign volunteers.

Obama’s failure to mark D-Day in any significant way is both a shame and a political mistake.

According to the Department of Veterans’ Affairs, two critical swing states – Florida and Pennsylvania, are among the top five states in terms of veterans’ population. Within the top twelve are four others – Michigan, Ohio, Virginia and North Carolina – all states Obama desperately needed to carry.

I could go on and on, but you can check these things out for yourself on the web.  Over and over again he has shown his disdain for people, soldiers, American history and much more.

This Politically, Socially and totally Un-American President should resign and give his office over to someone who is Patriotic, Unswerving and Devotionally American!

Do you remember one of the last scenes in “The Wizard of Oz”?  Dorothy and Toto were being held hostage by the wicked witch, who was demonstrating her powers. Throughout the whole movie, she was terrifying Dorothy and her friends.   Dorothy’s friends came to rescue her from the wicked witch. 

The wicked witch had these ugly, demon-looking creatures and these soldiers that were doing her bidding.  Dorothy and her friends were about to escape when the wicked witch stepped in.  The witch tried to set the scarecrow on fire and Dorothy threw a bucket of water on him.  It also hit the witch and she began to melt.  Dorothy and her friends were not sure what these creatures and the soldiers would do to them.  There was a pause and the creatures and soldiers began to clap their hands together rejoiced that the wicked witch was dead. 

I believe this is what we Americans, Congress, and the military should physically do by taking this wicked administration out and give them a dose of their own medicine, (use your imagination on this) No one would be scared of our freedoms, guns, heads or bodies being taken away from us!  We would all be clapping and dancing in the streets.

When I woke up this morning I visualized all of this and Rudy Giuliani being the hero that Dorothy was!  I then thought of little David the Shepherd boy.  All the soldiers were rubbing their hands together wondering what to do and were terrified of this giant Goliath.  David had faith that his God would protect him.  He went right out to meet the giant and the giant was mocking him.  David threw a stone with his slingshot and boom right between the eyes he hit him and down went the huge giant.

This is the way I feel about what is going on in our country today.  Give us a Dorothy and a David.  I am very grateful for all the branches of military service past and present, but give us a brave leader a hero to lead our military to overthrow this evil regime!

First He says He loves them because Jesus died for everyone.  Doesn’t matter what race, color, or preference of sin you choose.  Now I will broach the subject from the word of God itself!  Romans Chapter one goes into detail about God’s take on it.  Take it up with the creator who says clearly this is an ABOMINATION to Him.  Beginning with verse 18; “God’s anger is shown from heaven against ALL evil and wrong things people do.  By their own evil lies they hide the truth.  God shows His anger because some knowledge of Him has been made clear to them.  Yes God has shown Himself to them.  There are things about Him that people cannot see – His eternal power and all the things that make Him God.  But since the beginning of the world, those things have been easy to understand by what God has made.  So people have NO EXCUSE for the bad things they do.  They knew God, but they did not give glory to God or thank Him.  Their thinking became useless.  Their foolish minds were filled with darkness.  They said they were wise, but they became fools.  They traded the glory of God who lives forever for the worship of idols made to look like earthly people, birds, animals, and snakes.

Because they did these things, God left them and let them go their sinful way, wanting only to do evil.  As a result, they became full of sexual sin, using their bodies WRONGLY with each other.  They traded the truth of God for a lie.  They worshiped and served what had been created instead of the God who created those things, (created what things? them) who should be praised forever!  Amen.

Because people did those things, God left them and let them do shameful things they wanted to do.  Women stopped having natural sex and started having sex with other women.  In the same way, men stopped having natural sex and began wanting each other.   Men did shameful things with other men, and in their bodies, they received the punishment for those wrongs.” (AIDS)

So if God the creator says it is believing a lie, Shameful, Wrong, Abomination, evil and gave man the consequences of it then tell me, Why would he make you that way.  Come on you are believing a lie?  God loves you and I love you, but I cannot and will not affirm you in your sin!  GOD HATES IT!!! He did not make you that way.

The whole thing started with not being grateful to God.  You may at your leisure read the rest of Romans 1.

I will end with verse 32; “They know God’s law says that those who live like this should die.  But they themselves not only continue to do these evil things, but they also applaud others who do them.  Please reread and consider what the word of God says.

Excuse me but I thought prisons were for punishment.  If you commit a horrendous crime you should not be allowed any privileges.  The whole reason for having prisons is to punish the offender, not reward them!  I find this extremely appalling, that a prisoner would be allowed to sue, to get any type of privilege.

For those of you who are not privy to this story.  A crazed lunatic that killed his wife in 1993 wants the state of Virginia to pay for his sex change.  What in the world is this country coming to?

If the state surrenders to this transvestite, what will happen next?  If you love this country then PLEASE let your feelings in this matter be known.

You usually do not catch me being speechless on a matter, but one of this magnitude almost has me to that point.  What the state needs to do and all the correctional institutions in this country is to stop being stupid and say no to anything a criminal asks for!  They should not have any rights.  They gave those rights up when they broke the law.

The almighty dollar seems to be where the countries allegiance is going.  Instead of In God we Trust on the dollar bill it might as well say in the dollar we trust.

Our complacency is going to be the ruin of this country!  Again I cry “What are prisons for?
