MY HELP  So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty. —Zechariah 4:6  Give us aid against the enemy, for human help is worthless. With God we will gain the victory, and he will trample down our enemies. —Psalm 60:11-12                “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble” (Psalm 46:1) and at all times.   Why would we trust in man when we can trust in God? Who or what are you trusting in right now? Will you trust Him today and for the…

WORK’S FOCUS AND CHOICES  “Thus says the LORD of hosts: These people say the time has not yet come to rebuild the house of the LORD.”  Then the word of the LORD came by the hand of Haggai the prophet, “Is it a time for you yourselves to dwell in your paneled houses, while this house lies in ruins? —Haggai 1:2-4  And the LORD stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and the spirit of Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the remnant of the people. And they came and worked on the house of the LORD of hosts,…

OUR MOST HIGH KING OF GLORY RULES!  …the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom he will… for all his works are right and his ways are just; and those who walk in pride he is able to humble. —Daniel 4:32, 37 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aqo-adRyM_k                And men think they are in control of their lives! Yeh, that is not true at all. Our Most High King of Glory rules and controls all things. He decides who will be in power and who will not be in power.   They all will give answer to Him one day as to how they ruled. We also will give…

BEWARE OF DECEPTION!  His speech was smooth as butter, yet war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords. —Psalm 55:21              There are those who are masters at speech, but what they say and the intents and motives of the heart are diametrically opposed from each other. This is not an accident. It is very intentional because they have a wicked plan devised and are stealthily seeking to put it into operation. Beware of those who do not know our Lord Jesus and are in positions of power and influence. Their desires, worldview and intentions are not godly. The motivations of their…

GO… SO THEY CAN CALL ON HIM! And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved. —Joel 2:32 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame. For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without…

THE FOOL  The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good. —Psalm 53:1               This is what God says about those who say, “There is no God.” God says they are fools. Why?   A fool is one who has been tricked, duped, conned and deceived. They have been led astray and need to “come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.”   The fool “must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of…

DON’T KEEP SILENT IN SUCH A TIME AS THIS!  For if you keep silent at this time, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” —Esther 4:14  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhx37FRpcIw             God can work through you and through. He desires to do so! But if we keep silent, if we do not do His will then He will do so through someone else. But… God has you and me living at this time in history and in the location we are at for specific…

TRUTH ON THE INSIDE!  Behold, you delight in truth in the inward being, and you teach me wisdom in the secret heart. —Psalms 51:6             Who are you on the inside? What are your thoughts? Our Lord takes “delight in truth in the inward being.” If we are being true inwardly then we will act accordingly.   But do we act like we are living according to the truth, but on the inside something else is going on? It is easy to put on and outward perception of truth, but is that who we really are on the inside? Oh may we ask our Lord to teach us wisdom in the…

PLAIN COMMUNICATION WITHOUT WORDS!  The heavens declare his righteousness, for God himself is judge! Selah —Psalm 50:6  The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.   Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard, their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. —Psalm 19:1-4  For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. —Romans 1:20              You are…

UNDERSTAND!  Man in his pomp yet without understanding is like the beasts that perish. —Psalm 49:20              Someone has said, “When you die you die like a dog. You are thrown in the ground and that is it. There is nothing after death.” So it is with those who deny God. They are “like the beasts that perish.” For those without understanding there is no hope beyond the grave. They are like a dumb animal that does not understand.             With this fatalistic attitude unbelieving men live for today and hope for tomorrow. That is all they have. With no hope beyond the grave their philosophy is— “Let us eat…
