“A Time of Very Great
Miracles”
Greetings to you, my Precious Friends. Today is
the 2nd day of October, 2011 and also a time in which to reflect
upon the wonderful mysteries of our Blessed Saviour. For, world events tell us
that we have entered into times, which are unlike any since there was a nation.
(Daniel 12:1) Evil rises on every front. The motto of the wealthy is to steal, kill and
destroy. For, among them are the children of Satan, and it is Satan’s goal that
they all pursue: the goal of a united one world government and the total
enslavement/eradication of humanity.
But, my Dear Ones, we know that these wicked ones do
not win in the end. However, they will win for a while and the righteous ones
will be hunted like wild animals, imprisoned, tortured, drugged, subjected to
all manner of mind control, enslaved, murdered, relocated and stripped down to
almost nothing. (See Matthew 24:9)
Great persecution of the
body of Christ
“Not the righteous,” you may say! But, ask you
this: “Have the wicked ones not killed the prophets? (Luke 13:34, Romans
11:3) Have they not killed the apostles and others? (Acts 7:59)
Have they not killed our Beloved Saviour? ( Matthew:27) And, even in this
day and time, do we not see that the persecution of Christians is escalating
worldwide?” Therefore, now is the time to get prepared for what is upon every
nation, this terrible one world satanic government. Do not wait.
Many are unprepared
because of the lies!
My
Dear Ones, so many of you sleep in your ignorance, totally believing the great
Satanic lie, that you will not have to suffer if you believe in our Saviour,
but will, instead, be “raptured” out of the evils of this world, before you
have to suffer at all.
Herein, is the great lie that will sink the souls of
many! For, in the believing of this lie, many have neither prepared
spiritually for the very hard times, nor have they prepared for the times of
lack and terrible famine, which are already upon the whole world. This great lie
is also akin to another great lie, “once saved, always saved,” but that great
lie is for me to explain at another time.
Isaiah warned us about such times when he told us:
This is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the
law of the Lord: which say to the seers, see not; and to the prophets, prophesy
not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits.
(Isaiah 30:9-10)
The Purification of
One’s Heart
Yet, even so, my Dear Ones, the righteous must not
give up, but continue to fight the good fight; for the kingdom of our Saviour
comes to the pure of heart. The pure of heart will see His face.
(Matthew 5:8)
Make you a new heart …
(Ezekiel 18:31)
The Lord looketh upon
the heart … (Samuel 16:7)
But,
the great tests are in the purification
of the heart; for the hearts of most are full of varying amounts of
perverseness.
For,
out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murderers, adulteries, fornications,
thefts, false witness, blasphemies. (Matthew 16:19)
Be aware of your
thoughts and repent quickly of wrong thoughts
Wrong thoughts lead to a
greater sin
“Commit thy works unto
the Lord and thy thoughts shall be established.” Proverbs 16:3
The very great problem in the purification of one’s
heart, is that many fail to see that the contents of one’s heart are, most
often, shaped and molded by one’s thoughts. Thoughts, which run rampant,
will settle into one’s heart and create much darkness. (thoughts of the
heart: Luke 2:35, and Luke 24:38)
How others reveal what
is in their hearts
Verbal and non-verbal
One cannot speak “love” out of one side of one’s mouth
and then come with a proud, or mocking attitude towards loved ones and
still believe that the heart is clean. Neither can one be non-communicative,
sulking in silence, and expect others to read his, or her mind. For, the words
of the mouth, or even the very lack of words, will reveal one’s heart.
Through outward
behaviors
The intentions of the heart will further manifest
through various behaviors. So, where there is a lack of words about what
is in one’s heart, the intentions of one’s heart will be revealed through
various actions, or even non-actions, or withdrawal and total silence.
Therefore, my Dear Ones, the content of one’s heart will be revealed by what
one says and does, or even by what neither says, nor does. Understand?
The Deceptive hearts
Yet, to adequately understand the true spiritual
nature of one’s heart may take a while; for the hearts of many are extremely
deceptive. And, most often, many hurts may be covered up in layers of
denial. So, to uncover what is hidden within one’s own heart can turn out
to be one very great work and will not be done either easily, or quickly.
In all things, each of us must pray and seek to know
the truths about ourselves. I am truly convinced that the greatest spiritual
work that we will ever do is the spiritual work that we must each do on
ourselves before our Mighty Saviour.
If we are sincere in our prayers about overcoming our
own faults and overcoming our own humanness, our Saviour will hear these humble
prayers of our hearts. And, then, my Dear Ones, He will show us the true nature
of our own hearts; and most often, we will all find that we all have so very
much to overcome. I Kings 46: There is no man that sinneth not.
Kingdom promises for the
Overcomers
From time to time, I think of the teachings of the
churches, which are stressing that others will escape what is coming. Many are
mesmerized by the notion that they will escape.
But, my Dear Ones, our Saviour’s promises to the faithful are not based
on escaping, but on their overcoming. Remember His promises in
Revelation Chapters two and three for those, who overcome. Therefore, we
must be overcomers, not escapers. To overcome is not easy; and it is
through this great work of overcoming that we are all severely tried and
tested, that is, until we actually overcome, not only ourselves, but this world
that we live in.
So many tests and trials
My Dear Ones, we will all face many tests and trials
as we seek to clean out our hearts. This is the road to salvation and
truly a road of great tears and suffering. Oh, so painful it may be for us to
be brutally honest with ourselves and to see plainly our many faults, to see
them so clearly that they truly pain us and we so greatly wish to be
free.
Are you ready to be brutally honest with
yourself? If you are not ready to be brutally honest with yourself and to
spend many hours pondering the truths about yourself, you are not ready to do
the serious cleansing work in your heart. Remember: the pure of heart
will truly see the face of our Saviour. They will inherit the Kingdom of God.
So, if you are serious about wanting to marry our Saviour and to inherit His
kingdom, you must do this most important of works. You must clean out your
heart until it is made clean through the love, the forgiveness and the healing
of our Saviour. The pure of heart will see our Saviour’s face.
Denial is the easiest
way
It is far easier to hide the hurt and pain in one’s
heart and to pretend that it does not exist; and most do. But, in unexpected
times and on unexpected occasions, when ,something happens, which triggers the
painful memories, then someone, or something must be to blame. Now, the
one, who is blamed, may not be at all responsible, but only stands as a
reminder of painful times. Yet, the innocent one, is, without, his, or her
knowledge found guilty by association. In other words, when the painful
memories, or emotions, come flooding up into one’s awareness, others, who are
not at all connected to these past hurts, may be blamed because their very
words, or gestures, or even non-verbal mannerisms remind the other one of past
pain.
Perhaps, no memories,
but only emotional pain
Yes, the painful memories will arise out of the heart,
sometimes obviously so. But, at other times the pain is so far in the
background and so traumatic that it is not the memories that arise, but only
the pain, or the grief, the anger or the sorrow, which was firstly associated
with the traumatic event.
And, instead of the memories, there will come a flash
of some dread feeling, like despair, overwhelming abandonment, anger, or other
negative emotions. That flash will be either very transitory, or even
emotionally destabilizing, and when it is transient, one may want to quickly
forget it until the next time; for these are very unpleasant experiences. But,
at other times, this flash of emotion will be so disabling that there will be
some sort of emotional eruption, or withdrawal, or even detachment.
The one, who has stored this hurt and pain, has
learned that this anxious feeling, or this dread, is to be avoided at all
costs. This avoidance of the eruption of such hurt, through the release of
hidden feelings, can lead to all manner of strange behaviors.
Sometimes, there arises the need to blame others
needlessly for this terrible inner emotional turmoil, or the desire for others
to rescue one from such a state, or there may arise an eruption of loud,
accusing behaviors. What is in the heart, whether good, or bad, will come
out.
“And, ye shall know the
truth,
and the truth shall make
you free.” (John 8:32)
This is why it is so very important that we each be
firstly honest with ourselves, and then we can be honest with others; for it is
through this truth, this honesty , that true healing can really begin.
But, for those, who have been dishonest with
themselves for so much of their lives, to change courses and to be honest, can
be very difficult.
But,
my Dear Ones, truth is at the heart of our Saviour’s work. For, has he not told
us that: “The Spirit of truth has come, he will guide you into all
truth.” (John 16:13) So, our spiritual efforts need to focus on truth,
knowing the truth about ourselves and living truthfully with others. And, if we
lie on purpose, or by mistake, we need to repent quickly. For, one lie can
quickly become a mound of lies. Understand? Honesty must begin with each
of us and must begin in our hearts. If we will not be truthful with ourselves,
we will not be truthful with others.
The great liars!
What is the great difference between the children of
Satan and the children of our Saviour? Our Saviour has told us about
Satan’s children when He said: “You are of your father the devil, and the lusts
of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and
abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a
lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
Are we to go on lying, either to ourselves, or to
others, failing to repent and think that we are still in good standing with our
Saviour? We all must be conscious of our words on a day-to-day basis and
repent quickly of any lying or wrong-doing. Many say that it is alright to tell a white lie,
but a lie is a lie. All lies are black and there are no white lies. Every
unrepentant lie is imprinted on one’s soul as a sin.
My Dear Ones, we all need to be very careful of our
words and the thoughts of our hearts. May be all be quick to repent and quick
to forgive. The Lord have mercy on us all; for we are all sinners.
Looking for the truth!
Past wounds, the hidden
controllers
Are you haunted by terrible memories? Are you
driven to act inappropriately, even without knowing why you are behaving in a
certain way? What is hidden within you that drives you, even without your
permission? Sometimes, this can also be demonic, but that is another
issue altogether.
What is hidden within one’s heart, does not go away.
It must be purged through the Spirit and power of our Saviour; and
these dark places in one’s heart must be healed.
Forgiveness is so extremely important
“For, if you forgive men their
trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.” (Matthew 6:14)
If
we will not forgive others, a root of bitterness may grow within our hearts;
and when this root of bitterness grows, it begins to spread to all areas of our
lives, leading to feeling of depression, suspicion, anger, resentment and
hostilities on our parts. A root of bitterness may also lead to physical illnesses
as such a root draws darkness into one’s soul. NO amount of evil,
which anyone can do to us, can justify a root of bitterness. In other words, no
amount of evil, perceived, or otherwise, can justify unforgiveness, that
is, if we want to be free and to enter into the Kingdom of our Saviour.
Remember the words of Paul: “Look diligently lest any man fail of the grace of
God, lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you; and thereby many are defiled. (Hebrews
12:15)
So, what must we all do to stop such a root of
bitterness from developing in our hearts? We must firstly forgive all
persons of any and all things that they have done to us, whether real, or
imagined. And, if we are unable to do so because of so much hurt, we must ask
our Saviour to help us to forgive this person, or people.
We
must also continually ask our Saviour to take all of our burdens and to make
our journeys light. We must also praise Him every day and all through the day.
AND, ABOVE ALL, WE MUST THANK HIM FOR ALL THINGS THAT WE SUFFER AND ENDURE; AND
WE MUST BE SINCERELY THANKFUL. A THANKFUL AND FORGIVING HEART WILL NOT HARBOR
BITTERNESS.
