What Storm Are You Going Through?

10/28/2012

I pray all is well with you!
I want to thank some of you that purchased "The Ten Minute Tribulation" a couple of weeks ago after I announced that Amazon was selling it at an unbelievable low price. If you were not able to get it then I have some good news for you! Don't ask me how they are able to do it, BUT, when God wants something done, HE ALWAYS makes a way! Somehow "The Ten Minute Tribulation" has been made available for only $1.64! It is possible that there is only 13 left at this price but grab it and be blessed if you have not yet read it! Don't fall for anymore of those phony U TURN rapture stories!!! If you NEVER know the TRUTH, You will NEVER know the lies!

You can click any of the book titles to go directly to Amazon and get your copy today!

Now let me get into the topic I mentioned in the heading "What Storm Are You Going Through?"

On Saturday night I visited a small local church here in the Fairfax area and there was a lot of talk about the storm that is approaching the east coast in the next day or so. As the talk continued, I saw a lady come into the church in a wheel chair and suddenly I realized that the approaching storm is nothing compared to the storms that some people are facing every day. All of the talk and hype on Hurricane Sandy will be over in just a couple of days, but, what storm will you be facing when this one has passed?

Luke 8:22-25 Now it came to pass on a certain day, that He went into a ship with His disciples; and He said unto them, Let us go unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth. BUT, as they sailed He fell asleep; and there came down a storm of wind on the lake; and they were filled with water, and were in jeopardy. And they came to Him, and awoke Him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then He arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm. And He said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for He commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey Him.

Maybe Jesus is napping again as another storm grows, and once again, He is testing the faith of His followers! Waiting to see if we have put our eyes on where we are heading and thinking we have everything under control without JESUS. Sometimes it takes a storm to get His disciples to call on Him like they mean it! Oh, if we could just call on the Name of the LORD like there was a storm approaching on the days when the sky is blue and the smoke from our favorite restaurant is blowing our way! If, we could just see the storm in some people's lives on the bluest and sunniest days that is far worse than Hurricane Sandy could ever be!

One thing amazed me as I watched this lady in the church going through her storm in the wheel chair. She was smiling in the middle of her storm, while some in the church, were frowning about the storm that is coming. The more I thought about that, the more I wondered at how nice it would be,If, that where ever this storm hits the most, how awesome would it be if the people in that area praised God and called on His Name, as hard as the winds outside are blowing!

I remember a major tornado that hit LaPlata, Md on a Sunday about 10 years ago and when I walked through the damage the next day I passed by a few people at different times that I knew from various churches in the area. Trying to have compassion on them as I walked through the unbelievable destruction, I asked each one if they had lost their house not being able to comprehend how it would be possible not to have lost it in this area. To my surprise a few different individuals I spoke with all had about the same story. Most everything around them was destroyed but somehow their house was not touched!

What a PROMISE we have in Psalm 91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; BUT it shall NOT come nigh thee!

When you reach the "other side" of this storm be sure to give JESUS ALL THE GLORY for bringing peace during and after it! Whether your storm is called Sandy or Dandy, call on JESUS, and find peace in the middle of it. Praise God for the storm! A time to thank HIM for the ones your gonna be couped up with during the storm!

God bless you! AND be SURE to tell someone on the job about JESUS!

How About That Shadow!

10/8/2012

God is GoOD, all the time!
What a nice week it has been in the LORD here in Virginia and I pray it has been the same with you as you continue in the LORD. Let me also mention that Amazon is having another one of those crazy sales on the book I recently completed and selling them cheaper than I can even sell them myself! If you have not read The Ten Minute Tribulation/The Final 7 Years, this may be your chance. As I prepared this letter, I checked the price and it is currently at $5.29, so get it why you can. I have seen it go up quickly when orders start to come in, so, forgive me if it changes by the time you get there.

It's funny that as many churches I have passed through, and heard many of them teach that there are no apostles today, it seems that almost every visitor here in Virginia lately has had the title of apostle. Although titles are just titles, we know the Word of God says,

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and for ever (Hebrews 13:8).

Many are also aware that the Old Testament was a shadow of the New Testament that would soon come.

For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of those things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect (Hebrews 10:1).

What a beautiful story the Old Testament tells if we take the time to truly understand it. There are a lot of churches out there today that really don't want much to do with the Old Testament but that's like trying to live in a two story house with no first story!

If you have never studied the "Tabernacle of Moses" you have really cut yourself short, if, you really want to understand the "Kingdom of Heaven". As you study the Tabernacle of Moses you will see that it was actually a shadow of God's Heavenly Kingdom shinning down upon the earth!

If you clicked the previous link and had a chance to check out the diagram of The Tabernacle of Moses, it might not have made much sense at first glance, BUT, it actually holds a 7000 year plan for mankind! Now, there surely is not enough space in this letter for me to give you all of the details as to how these teachings fall into place for each section but the information is readily available for you to dig deeper if you really want to understand why these things are true. If you don't feel like digging, as always, you are welcome to email me with any questions you may have and I will do my best to answer it for you.

Starting with the FOUR post that held the curtain to the gate as you enter it, it is a reminder of the 4000 years from the Fall of Adam and Eve to the FIRST coming of the LORD Himself! The FIRST coming of the LORD is symbolized by the FIVE post at the next door that holds a curtain which was known as the "Holy Place". Interesting enough, these FIVE post also represent God's government that would be established at His First Coming!

Ephesians 4:11-12 And He gave some. 1)Apostles; and some,2) Prophets; and some, 3)Evangelists, and some, 4)Pastors and 5)Teachers: For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

This area beyond the FIVE posts, The Holy Place, also represents a 2000 year period of grace after the LORD's FIRST coming and then brings us to the last section of the tabernacle which is known as the "Holy of Hollies". This small area, that ONLY the High Priest, was allowed to enter into in the Old Testament, also represents the 1000 year reign of the LORD Himself! God set up His government at His First Coming to instruct His Saints how to enter into this most Holy Place!

Hebrews 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus.

THE ALTAR, that you see as you first entered in, represented the sacrifice that took place at Calvary almost 2000 years ago! and THE LAVER, that was just passed the altar represented water baptism which was commanded by the LORD in Matthew 28:19.

Although Jesus Himself had been baptized nearly 3 and 1/2 years earlier, He now gives a new commandment to baptize in this verse of Matthew. We can clearly see that even though Jesus gives this new commandment in Matthew, no one actually began to fulfill this commandment and baptize in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost until approximately 50 days later when the Holy Ghost was poured out on the Day of Pentecost. It was then, on The Day of Pentecost, that Peter and the other apostles baptized about 3000 souls in that Name!

Well, I've barely even scratched the surface of this natural shadow that God gave us but I pray you can begin to see how we are to spiritually walk in the light of this shadow. Honestly, the teachings on The Tabernacle of Moses could go on for a very long time but I try to keep these letters as short as possible, so, I will cut it here.

Have a blessed week,
And be SURE to tell someone on the job about JESUS

The Most Beautiful Woman!

10/2/2012

Welcome!
                  There are a lot of opinions today on what it means to be a popular woman in today's society, but what really makes a woman a beautiful woman? As I watch them grow sometimes from an innocent child into a worldy competitor it can almost bring tears to your eyes. I have seen naturally beautiful women literally fall apart as they try to keep up with unnaturally beautiful women.

Everytime I see a natually beautiful girl fall apart it always reminds me of one in particular that never fell apart. There is one that every time I think of her it amazes me of how hard she held on to her God and her inward beauty as ALL of the other women fell into competition! This woman went from a beautiful name to a lesser name without it affecting her inward spirit and the outward beauty that shined from it.

She was a beautiful Jewish woman living in a time when the Jews were looked down upon and in fact there was some that wanted to see them extinct at that very time! Her natural Jewish name was Hadassah but due to the way the Jews were looked down upon at that time she had to take what would be considered a pagan name in order to keep from being persecuted because of her Jewish name. At this point Hadassah becomes Esther a poor and humble Jewish girl that would rise up one day to be a kings wife!

If you are a woman and have not read the very short and very powerful book of Esther you have robbed yourself of a great blessing. I really suggest you break down and read those short ten chapters and let the blessing fall within you! If you are a man and have not read this book, I strongly suggest you break down and do so and receive your blessing, as you learn where, to give your wife or future wife the example of a godly woman.

This is the only book in the bible that NEVER mentions the word God or His Name. In fact, there is NOT even a strong reference towards God, but, I personally have seen God in the most awesome way as I have read this book over and over. I believe anyone who reads it with an open heart will see Him in the same way. At times we see Gods love and protection for those who belong to Him and at the same time we see Gods unblievable wrath fall upon those that oppose the people God loves! In it we see the inward beauty of one of the most beautiful women of all times and we also see the most ugly and evil spirit of a man and his followers to oppose it!

As many women get caught up in the ways of this world and the deceitfulness of riches, I always think of Esther, and when it was her turn to receive anything she desired before she went in to see the king of her time. After the other women had had their turn and chosen the material things they wanted (Esther 2:13) we come to Esthers turn to choose what she would have to come before the king!

Esther 2:15
Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, was come to go in before the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain the keeper of the women, appointed, And Esther obtained favor in the sight of all them that looked upon her.

Isn't it strange today that we think it takes tons of material things to obtain favor? Just watch carefully around you how people act as they continue to believe that more things will make them happy. It seems to me that the more people reach for on the outside, the uglier they become on the inside. What a woman was Esther (Hadassah) for an example not only to women but also to men as to what to look for in a woman! Don't get me wrong though men, because if you want a woman like Esther your gonna have to get right on the inside to get her!

I'm sure none of us will get it perfect while we are on the green side of the grass, BUT, thank God we have some examples to lead us in the right direction as we head to the other side of the grass!

God bless you!
