5th Day of the Week
Daily writing
My LORD, Lord of my salvation; early in the morning I come to Thee. I search for Thy will in all things. My life, I have left behind to take on service to Thee.
Oh! Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our Redeemer; let Your will be known by those who seek YOUR Face. Let Thy will be known to me and those that live to please You.
Remember YOUR merciful kindness when you look upon the followers of YOUR only begotten Son. Bless us and keep us; let YOUR will be done. AMEN.
My will is there to be known; he that seeks My face will find it. Is it not written? You pray a prayer of stature; you wrote it here so people may know. The heart of prayer is known in full; pretences then fade away. And still, know I, your heart in truth.
I know your concerns Mattit’YAHU; I know all of you. Remember where you came from; the path you have walked until now. Was it void of purpose then, a life of only shame? Yea, you forget, but I remember; it is well recorded in heaven. You hold fast, you bow your head; but, I remember those that came against you. Yea, I remember those who were ready to harm you. All is recorded, and who repented of their doing?
The instruction for man is not secret, is it? How much record does man need to know the truth? But, man receives the truth not without conviction; so they would rather remain ignorant. It is not easy to walk against the will of this world; and to exercise self-control, who wants such restraint? No, Mattit’YAHU; this world only receives that which pleases them; only that which tickles the ear.
Do you think I don’t know how people read My Word with ulterior motives? Do you think I am blind to self-interest? Where are those who live with a true love in them? Look, man loves himself first. Look for yourself. Yea, even he that stands for peace; how well is his name known? What of he that gives blood money to the poor to soothe his conscience; or, to set up his next score? No, this generation is getting out of hand, fed by wicked devices by the predecessors. Where is the humble? Where are the poor? Who stands for them?
I will do a thing; for I truly am the Defender of the poor. Yea, I am the Shield of the innocent, the Shelter of the righteous. I will do My thing and I will confound man. I shall set the rest of the afflicted; yea, I shall yield the Sword for them; for the fatherless have a Father in Me. The scattered will be brought Home. And all the scoffers? They will be left to stand in shame. Test it in My Word, see if I am who I say I am. I will be the defence of the defenceless; I will give the humble victory over the arrogant. I will do it with the forces of Heaven and none will stop Me.
How many nights must I suffer the cries of the afflicted? Who will stand for them? Yea, Mattit’YAHU; those with a heart of truth have been oppressed by the wicked too. Oh! I permitted it for a moment, to see who would repent. Yea, yea; and they repented not; and those who did, were wiped out of their way. I told you, the enemy broke the rules of engagement; so My Sword will strike quickly. With a Mighty blow, prophecy will unfold with haste to save what is left. The enemy made a false start’ yea, he jumped the gun. With deception he has left many in a desperate state.
Tell Me, son of man; what then have you read? Who am I? What is it that you expect? Am I unrighteous? Am I an unfair Judge? What is it that you expect?
See this for yourself too; is the righteous left to live in peace? Is the peacemaker truly honoured; or, does man run after false causes? Oh! yes; they have hidden their hand of iniquity but feasted in the prosperity meant for righteous men. Test My Word, so of man; see if it confirms. Do you truly know the season you are in; or, are you fast asleep and kept captive in four walls? Who then indulge themselves in My Creation; I say, who? Yea; the wicked, while the righteous wait for an act of GOD. So, I will act! You will see Divine intervention. Has it not already started; are you then left blind too?
Mattit’YAHU, My son; what do you consider then? Am I pleased with the ways of man? Am I going to fold My Hands and let the wicked plunder the whole earth? Have they not set their sights even on Heaven then? No; things cannot remain as they have been.
(The Lord instructed me to insert the texts here, which He highlighted to me in the Spirit, while I was reading.)
Psalms 146:3-5 “Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save. When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord their God.”
Psalms 146:7-9 “He upholds the cause of the oppressed and gives food to the hungry. The Lord sets prisoners free, the Lord gives sight to the blind, the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down, the Lord loves the righteous. The Lord watches over the foreigner and sustains the fatherless and the widow, but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.”
Psalms 147:10-11 “His pleasure is not in the strength of the horse, nor his delight in the legs of the warrior; the Lord delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.”
Psalms 150:6 “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.”
Psalms 16:2 “I say to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing.’”
Psalms 16:5-8 “Lord, you alone are my portion and my cup; you make my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken.”
Psalms 16:9-11 “Therefore my heart is glad, and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, nor will you let your faithful one see decay. You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.”
Proverbs 11:5-8 “The righteousness of the blameless makes their paths straight, but the wicked are brought down by their own wickedness. The righteousness of the upright delivers them, but the unfaithful are trapped by evil desires. Hopes placed in mortals die with them; all the promise of their power comes to nothing. The righteous person is rescued from trouble, and it falls on the wicked instead.”
Proverbs 11:16-19 “A kind-hearted woman gains honor, but ruthless men gain only wealth. Those who are kind benefit themselves, but the cruel bring ruin on themselves. A wicked person earns deceptive wages, but the one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward. Truly the righteous attain life, but whoever pursues evil finds death.”
Proverbs 11:30-31 “The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and the one who is wise saves lives. If the righteous receive their due on earth, how much more the ungodly and the sinner!”
Acts 20:26-28 “Therefore, I declare to you today that I am innocent of the blood of any of you. For I have not hesitated to proclaim to you the whole will of God. 28Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.”
Acts 20:32-33 “‘Now I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. I have not coveted anyone’s silver or gold or clothing.”
Nahum 1:7 “The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him,”
I am the righteous Judge; that knows the truth of each heart. Bring those who repent to Me; that they may swiftly be forgiven. And you? Test your own heart then; rid it of evil. Resist, I say, resist the devil and he shall flee from you. For now, there is only One Hope for life. Be wise then and live life well.
Shalom
Introspection
Yes friends, and now it is the hard task to dwell on these things. Removing all justifications that might cause us to look at ourselves in bias. We must investigate the self and bring it to conform. For, the heart of man is flesh and its desires must be tested. If we exercise self-control and listen to the guidance of the Holy Spirit; then the rod of God is unneeded. Who punishes a child that is doing his best to do what is right?
It also comes up in me, that I must first just reaffirm to you what is happening here and how the word comes. Now I am well aware that there are those that will be sceptical; it would be foolish not to test it. For we are instructed to test all things in the Spirit. The LORD called me to this duty and I am merely standing in a place of faith. He speaks and I listen, as the Holy Spirit has taught me over the past few years. I am in a period of separation, which might be hard to understand at first; but once you have spent time with the Lord in quiet time, you will understand what I mean. This is not of me, especially not the blue lettering. If you spend time with the Lord, truly spend time with the Lord in reverence and sealed lips; then you will know the sentiment that is coming forth here, because the Holy Spirit is not divided in tongue. If there is any doubt in you, test it in the Spirit and listen to GOD please. I am just a common man, there is nothing extraordinary about me.
That being said, let’s look at what was given today; and I urge you, if you can find the time, to track with me in reading the scriptures. If you are like me, trusting in the LORD with reverence, knowing the fear of GOD; the Spirit would have brought you to a point of questioning what you see play out around you, not? Let’s just say, something isn’t sitting right in you. For a longtime now, mankind has been on a course of descent; surely you can recognise it. We are seeing things manifest in the world before us that seems to have its roots in hell. But, the world mentality and its workers of iniquity will have you convinced that there is nothing wrong. And when you are convinced by investigation that all is not well; it will set out to convince you that you are powerless to do anything about it.
The words of the WEF (World Economic Forum) regarding 2030 rings like a bell for me, “You will own nothing, and be happy.” Or, maybe you have heard terms like, “The Great Reset” or “The Great Awakening” as the heads of states look at matters of energy, sustainability, climate change and what appears to be a failing economic system. Yes friends, there is a global effort masked under a banner of man’s salvation. I want you to consider this deeply and from a place of faith and belief keep watch on what this world is preparing for. We are merely sojourners here; in the world but not off it. I cannot inform you here of all that is happening in the world, but I can urge you to investigate matters. See what season we are in.
As for the person of faith, what is your faith founded in? Are you looking to this world for solutions? Sit down in silence in the presence of the LORD your GOD, find out for yourself what is truth in the Spirit. Even today’s word advises not to trust in man. I am a man. No, the Word of GOD invites Trust in HIM, the GOD of all Creation.
If you have read the blue-letter-text above, you will note that it is very personal. God is speaking to me, by a Name He prefers to call me. To understand, just note it is simply the Hebrew version of my given name. Why am I posting such a personal matter out to others? Please note this: It appears as if GOD is making a case against man, and He is informing those who come to HIM. As human beings, we can make all the plans we want; if GOD is in agreement with our efforts, he will bring success to our efforts. (Please read the highlighted verse, but if time permits, read the whole text. Better yet, read the whole Bible.) God does not contradict himself. If it is written in His Word, it will happen. We must further know that there is such a thing as a conditional prophecy, as in the case of Jonah and Nineveh. If the people did not repent, God would have destroyed them as He did with an unrepentant Sodom and Gomorrah. We are afforded a great opportunity to respond to the Word of GOD, which seals in our fate. Do you understand?
Today’s Word speaks to judgment; and more so, to fair judgment. Those that refuse GOD, that is why they are called godless; they cannot see that the righteous (redeemed by the blood of Christ) are suffering an unjust world until the time of the gentile is full. They cannot perceive that the rewards of GOD’s chosen are delayed for the sake of mercy and salvation of those whose names are written in the Book of Life who have not come in yet. So yes, we suffer in seeing all kinds of abominations and the further fall of mankind; especially when those we love choose to take part in it. But, GOD is not going to “stay” His judgment forever; that too, we must know.
The sad fact is, that we are all without excuse. The LORD has made his appeal to man forever. Yes, He even sent His very own Son.
But… We are incessant in our own ways. Even in the congregation of the church we struggle to get along, what still, of love? Oh! The self is always in the foresight, the love of self, reigns supreme in all matters. How I wish I could state it simply. How I wish the explanation was short and without any debate.
My friends, this world has labelled everyone unto division; don’t you see that? In the words of Christ, a house divided against itself cannot stand(prevail). If you cannot see from the text today that unrepented you are your own worst enemy; how can I convince you then? You in your own self must find the true truth of yourself to see your own state. This world has trained you to think you are right even when you are very wrong; and I am not going to pay the price, you will. Just be honest with yourself for salvation's sake. Think! Think in truth and think clearly. The world is not looking to Christ for salvation, they are looking to the likes of Elon Musk or Donald Trump, can you not see what is happening right in front of your eyes? If you do, excuse my rant; I am concerned about those who are fast asleep.
Proverbs 6:10-11 “A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest— and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.”
Yes it refers to people who are lazy, but what of those who are Spiritually lazy? What about spending a moment in reflection to find your true state. Maybe then you will find enough that will lead you to repentance and you can be snatched away from the flames of hellfire. And you can live with inner peace. I want you to share in that, which is truly good.
I am not immune to sin, but I hate it. It gives a false pleasure, something that only leads to destruction. There was a time when I could not see it, how I wish I saw it earlier in my life; maybe then I would not have so much regret. Still am I forgiven, because of that regret, I could repent and be forgiven from above. I have no short verse, I only know pleading until you listen. A judgment is coming and for some sooner than others; how can you escape your last breath? I feel helpless to convince you, because GOD respects your choice; like a child that insists to do things their own way, not hearing your loving shout to stop. Like that Un obedient and defiant child, he does not want to hear might end up to feel all of it. All of that which I tried to warn them of.
Will the LORD say to me, “leave them, they have made their choice?” How do I spend even one day without weeping? How do I make peace with hard-headedness? So, I will weep, who listens, but GOD?
My Prayer
LORD, forgive me; give me strength, for I am fatigued.
I know, LORD, each must make their own choice; why is it so hard on me then?
If I could forget; if I could stop to care, then would my salvation not wear off too?
I hate what the father of lies has done to people LORD, I hate the deception.
I speak and speak, LORD; I pray, but who listens?
My reins are in turmoil, my heart is broken for the sense of loss.
I know, LORD, there is a price to pay for rejecting YOUR word.
I know that salvation is to be found; and yet, who shows interest still?
I know, LORD, that everyone has been given a chance to choose for themselves.
LORD, make him pay who kept them too busy to see the Truth.
LORD, make him pay who taxed them with concerns of this life.
LORD, I know, even at his removal people will still make poor decisions.
If this heartbreak in me is so severe, LORD; how does it make YOU feel?
To see YOUR creation in a disgusting state?
Oh! LORD have mercy, show them a sign; maybe then they will repent.
I know, LORD; YOU have done all YOU could, within the letter of YOUR LAW.
YOUR Kingdom Come.
YOUR will be done.
Amen.
