The Desire of The Sluggard

Proverbs 21:8,16,21,25,26 NASB1995

“8 The way of a guilty man is crooked,

But as for the pure, his conduct is upright.

16 A man who wanders from the way of understanding

Will rest in the assembly of the dead.

21 He who pursues righteousness and loyalty

Finds life, righteousness and honor.

25 The desire of the sluggard puts him to death,

For his hands refuse to work;

26 All day long he is craving,

While the righteous gives and does not hold back.”

The Scriptures, both in the Old Testament and in the New, make a clear distinction between the righteous and the unrighteous, and between the saved and the unsaved. And it isn’t that one person made a profession of faith in Jesus Christ and the other did not. It is that one person, by God-gifted and God-persuaded faith in Jesus Christ died with Christ to sin, and is now walking (in conduct) in obedience to our Lord’s commands, by the Spirit, and the other has continued in habitual sin, and not in obeying God.

But this doesn’t make us perfect. It does not mean that we will never sin, or that we will never fail to be who God wants us to be, but that sin should no longer be our practice (addiction), and obedience to God should be what we practice, by his grace. For Jesus Christ gave his life up for us on that cross to put our sins to death with him so that by faith in him we will now die to sin and follow him in obedience to his commands, so that we will now serve him with our lives and no longer our flesh – all in the power of God within us.

So, we often find these comparisons between the righteous and the unrighteous, and the saved and the unsaved, in the Scriptures. And we need to pay close attention to what they teach us. For many people today are buying into the lies of the enemy, and they are being convinced that if they make a verbal profession of faith in Jesus Christ that now all their sins are forgiven and heaven is guaranteed them when they die, but regardless of how they live. But the Scriptures teach the opposite of that. Please know!

So, one who is a genuine follower of Jesus Christ should be one who is pure and upright in conduct, who lives to please the Lord and not the sinful flesh. They should be those who are walking in fellowship with the Lord, eager to do what is pleasing to the Lord, and not looking for loopholes to excuse away what they know is sinful behavior. They should be those who pursue righteousness and what is godly, and who are loyal to the Lord and to his word. Obedience to God should not be a drudgery, but their heart’s desire.

Yet we have many people today who give lip service to the Lord who are still deliberately and habitually walking in the ways of their sinful flesh. Their hearts never changed. Their desires never changed. They said the “magic words” to “get saved,” but their actions did not follow suit. They are those who deliberately wander from the right way in order to feed the sinful desires of their flesh, some of whom then give lip service to God to give an impression of all goodness, while they lie and cheat, and do their evil.

But Jesus Christ taught that to come to him we must deny self, take up our cross daily (die daily to sin), and follow (obey) him. For if we hold on to living in sin and for self, we will lose our lives for eternity. But if we deny self, die daily to sin, by the Spirit, and we walk in obedience to our Lord and to his commands, in his power, then we have eternal life with God. For not everyone who calls him “Lord” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one DOING (obeying) the will of God (see Luke 9:23-26; Matthew 7:21-23).

For by God-gifted faith in Jesus Christ, which is not of our own doing, we are crucified with Christ in death to sin and raised with Christ to walk in newness of life in him, no longer to live as slaves to sin but as slaves to righteousness in walks of obedience to God’s commands. We are no longer to permit sin to reign in our mortal bodies to make us obey its desires. For if sin is what we obey, it results in death. But if obedience to God is what we obey, it results in sanctification, and its end is eternal life with God (see Romans 6:1-23).

[Matthew 7:13-14,21-23; Luke 9:23-26; Romans 6:1-23; Romans 8:1-14; Galatians 5:16-24; Ephesians 2:8-10; Ephesians 4:17-32; Ephesians 5:3-6; Titus 2:11-14; 1 John 1:1-10; 1 John 2:1-6; 1 John 3:4-10; Acts 26:18] 

So, please know and live the truth. For your eternity depends on it.

Listen to me ev’ryone and

Understand this teaching of Christ:

Why do you break the commands 

Of God for the sake of tradition?

When you follow the ways of man,

And don’t obey the words of Christ,

You nullify the words of God,

And you hold to the ways of man. 

What comes out of a man’s mouth is

What makes him unclean and dirty.

The things that come out of the mouth

Come from the heart, from within him.

The heart of man is so sinful;

From his nature, out comes evil:

Lying, cursing, greed and malice,

Lust and lewdness, deceit, slander.

Jesus calls us to obey him;

Turn from our sins; follow His ways.

Yet, his people honor him with their lips, 

but their hearts not with Him.

Their worship of God is in vain.

Their teachings are rules taught by man.

Jesus calls us; gently leads us 

To return and follow His truth.

The Violence of The Wicked

Proverbs 21:6,7,10,27 NASB1995

“6 The acquisition of treasures by a lying tongue

Is a fleeting vapor, the pursuit of death.

7 The violence of the wicked will drag them away,

Because they refuse to act with justice.

10 The soul of the wicked desires evil;

His neighbor finds no favor in his eyes.

27 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination,

How much more when he brings it with evil intent!”

Yesterday, the Lord had me write a post titled, “The Counsel of The Nations Nullified,” where he had me share some of what he has been teaching me for the past 21+ years about the US federal government and their actions, perhaps from the very beginning of this nation, but definitely over the course of my lifetime of 76 years. And when I read this passage of Scripture this morning from Proverbs 21, what immediately stood out to me was that this is talking about the government of the USA and all its evil in the world.

Now hate me if you don’t like what I am about to say. It is okay. I would rather be hated for telling you the truth than to be loved for telling you lies which make you feel good. But, sadly, the US government are not the only ones spreading lies in the USA and across the globe. Probably the majority of these “institutional market-driven churches” (falsely called “churches”) are spreading some of the same lies about Israel and the US government, and their dealings, and about the gospel of Christ and our salvation from sin.

For, the USA and its government and its people are NOT one nation under the One True God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. That is a façade. The opposite is true, in fact. Our government is not a humanitarian group of people who care about the people of the world, or, in fact, the people of their own nation. Our government works for the elite, wealthy, and powerful of the world in taking down nation after nation by force – stealing, killing, and destroying, including within their own nation, and right now.

Recently the Lord led me to join Substack, which is another internet site where I can post my daily devotions. But it is so much more than that, some of it good, and some of it bad, just like every other internet site, perhaps. And today he led me to an article by an author named Gary D. Barnett who wrote something similarly to what the Lord had me write in “The Counsel of The Nations Nullified,” although not from a Christian perspective, perhaps, but which mostly all agreed with what the Lord has been showing me. 

https://open.substack.com/pub/garydbarnett/p/the-us-has-become-a-hellhole-and?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=post%20viewer

And three days ago the Lord had me respond to someone from another country who was lamenting the evil actions of the USA government on the people of the rest of the world. And he was calling out to the American people to do something about all the evil that their government was inflicting on the rest of the world. And his article, as well, spoke volumes of truth to me regarding the actions of the US government on the rest of the world – truth which the Lord had been teaching me for the past 21 years.

I did not save the title or the author of the post, but this was my response: 

Hello! I am an American citizen, born here 76 years ago, and I am so sorry for all the damage that my nation has done to the rest of the world over the course of many years, deliberately, without conscience, and without concern for who they hurt and the damage that they do, in the process. It grieves me to know of what they have been doing all of my life, under the noses of the America citizens, most of whom have no idea what the US government has done and is doing to the people of the world while disguising their actions as something else, for they habitually lie to the American citizens.

But the US government, which the people of this nation believe are the ones calling all the shots, are a façade, a fake. Left and Right, politically speaking, are also a façade, for both sides work for the same people. And the elections are all fixed and a façade and they mean nothing. For the real de facto government of the USA is what we often term as “the shadow government,” alias a global conglomerate of people of enormous wealth and power and control over the entire world. And the US government serves them and their purposes, so they are still at fault, but we the people have no control.

For all of this is far greater than any of us could possibly imagine. For this is not about one country and their elected officials, but this is about a global order (a one world order) being plotted and carried out by the wealthy and powerful of this world who control the world. And the US government is just their puppets carrying out their desires. And that is not excusing them away. It is just saying that this goes way beyond one nation and their “elected” officials. And all that is happening has been prophesied in the Bible, so we are just seeing it unfold before our eyes. And what you wrote affirmed that.

The best that we can do, as American citizens, is to open our eyes to what is going on in the world, and to be willing to see our government’s involvement in it all, and then to be those who speak out against what is going on. But even if we do that, our voices are barely heard, for the people have been largely indoctrinated that such rhetoric is to be regarded as “conspiracy theories” which are to be immediately discarded as trash. And so our voices are immediately dismissed, in most cases. And we are just considered as nut cases or as extremists, but rarely are we taken seriously by the masses.

Our Hearts Rejoice in God

“Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,

On those who hope for His lovingkindness,

To deliver their soul from death

And to keep them alive in famine.

Our soul waits for the Lord;

He is our help and our shield.

For our heart rejoices in Him,

Because we trust in His holy name.

Let Your lovingkindness, O Lord, be upon us,

According as we have hoped in You.” (Psalm 33:18-22 NASB1995)

Who are those who fear the Lord? They are all who, by God-persuaded and God-gifted faith in Jesus Christ, have denied self, died with Christ to sin, and been raised with Christ to walk in newness of life in him, no longer to live as slaves to sin, but now as servants of the Lord in obedience to his commands (New Covenant). They are all who are living righteously, by the grace of God, who are faithful in service to the Lord Jesus. And they are all who believe that God will do both what he promised and what he also threatened.

[Ephesians 2:8-10; Romans 6:1-23; Luke 9:23-26; Matthew 7:21-23]

And those who hope for the lovingkindness of the Lord are not those with just wishful thinking, but this hope is a confident assurance of God’s lovingkindness to all who call on him in truth, who deny self, die to sin, and obey our Lord in daily practice. We can be assured that God is with us, that he is directing our path, and that nothing will happen to us but what God allows it, and he allows it for his purposes, and that he will carry us through it all to the finish line, by his grace, in his power, via our surrender to Him.

[Psalm 145:17-20; Psalm 13:4-6; Psalm 23:1-6; Psalm 31:7-8,15-16]

And what is the goal in our salvation from sin? It is not just so that we will have our sins forgiven so that when we die we will go to heaven, and not to hell. The goal of our salvation is to deliver us out of our slavery (addiction) to sin so that we will now follow our Lord in walks of obedience to his commands in holy living, by his grace and in his power. For if sin remains our practice, and not surrender to God in obedience to our Lord’s commands, then we will not escape hell, and we will not have eternal life with God.

[Matthew 7:21-23; Luke 9:23-26; Romans 6:1-23; Galatians 5:16-24; Ephesians 5:3-6; 1 John 1:1-10; 1 John 2:3-6; 1 John 3:4-10; Acts 26:18]

What should it look like for our souls to wait for the Lord? Well, it definitely has to do with patience, endurance, faith, and belief in God’s sovereignty over our lives, that he is the one in control, and that he has all things under his command. And if we truly believe that God is our help and our shield, then we should have no fear of danger, and we should not fret what may be coming, but we should be those who put our hope fully in God to work out his plan. We should put our trust fully in him without fear of the future.

[Psalm 33:20-22; Jeremiah 1:4-19; Matthew 10:24-28; Philippians 1:12-14; 2 Timothy 1:6-7; 1 Peter 3:13-17; Revelation 2:9-10; 2 Corinthians 5:6-10]

A False Hope For Victory

“The Lord looks from heaven;

He sees all the sons of men;

From His dwelling place He looks out

On all the inhabitants of the earth,

He who fashions the hearts of them all,

He who understands all their works.

The king is not saved by a mighty army;

A warrior is not delivered by great strength.

A horse is a false hope for victory;

Nor does it deliver anyone by its great strength.” (Psalm 33:13-17 NASB1995; also see Psalm 139:1-24) 

God and God alone knows the hearts of all human beings, because we were created by him – by God the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit. He formed our inward parts, and he wove us in the womb’s of our mothers. And all the days that were ordained for us are written down in his book, even though many of them have not yet taken place. In other words, God knows us inside and out. Before we were even born he knew who we were going to be and what we would do and who would follow him with their lives.

No one else knows us like God knows us, not even ourselves, I believe. Even before there is a word on our tongues, the Lord knows it all. He knows when we sit down, and when we rise up, and he understands our thoughts from afar, even before we are even aware of our own thoughts. He is intimately acquainted with all of our ways. Nothing is hidden from God. So, even if we wanted to hide from God, we cannot, for he sees everything we do. And if we are willing, he will lead us in the way we ought to go, which is God’s way.

And God’s way is the way of holiness and righteousness, in death to sin, and in walks of obedience to our Lord and to his commands. As those who believe in Jesus Christ, we are to be those who are in step with him, who walk in his ways in doing what all he has for us to do, as his followers, and in his power. Our lives are to be surrendered to our Lord to do his will and to obey his calling upon our lives, to go wherever he sends us, and to say whatever he gives us to say for the glory of God and the sake of the gospel.

And we are to be looking to the Lord to solve our problems and to give us the wisdom to make the right decisions and to speak the words he wants us to speak to the people. We are not to put our dependency in other humans, or in other sources, such as in artificial intelligence, to make our decisions for us and to give us the words to say. Sadly, many people today, including Christians, and perhaps some pastors, too, are letting AI do their thinking for them and to replace the Holy Spirit in giving them the words to say.

Our dependency is also not to be in doctors and psychologists and teachers and preachers and heads of government and drugs (medications) to solve our problems. Now the Lord may use doctors and teachers and preachers, etc., to help us, and to give us some guidance, but we should not place our full dependency in them, making them our gods and not God. We should seek the counsel of God first and foremost, and even after we get outside counsel, we should still seek the counsel of God if that is what he wants.

Humans will fail us. They will not get everything right. And some may willfully do us harm with the full intent to destroy us and/or to lead us astray, or to get us to make them our gods in place of God. We need to not be people who immediately run to other sources without first consulting with our Lord, in prayer, seeking his counsel with regard to what steps he has for us to take, and what words he would have us to write or to speak. For letting AI do our speaking for us is not of God, but is of the flesh, so not biblical.

So we need to put our trust fully in the Lord, and we need to let him direct our paths, and we must not run to everyone else or to anything else first before we even consult God. So many liars are trying to convince us that we must depend on them or on drugs or on something other than God to make it through the difficulties of this life. But that is a lie from Satan. God first always, and then let him lead us in the way he would have us to go, even if it does not agree with the thinking and reasoning of other humans.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart

And do not lean on your own understanding.

In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He will make your paths straight.

Do not be wise in your own eyes;

Fear the Lord and turn away from evil.” (Proverbs 3:5-7 NASB1995)

The Counsel of The Nations Nullified

“Let all the earth fear the Lord;

Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

For He spoke, and it was done;

He commanded, and it stood fast.

The Lord nullifies the counsel of the nations;

He frustrates the plans of the peoples.

The counsel of the Lord stands forever,

The plans of His heart from generation to generation.

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,

The people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.” (Psalm 33:8-12 NASB1995)

What does it mean to fear the Lord? It means that we honor, value, respect, and adhere to him and his commands, that we do not take him and his grace for granted, but we believe his word, and we take it seriously to do what it says. It also means that we take the Scriptures to heart, and we believe what they say, and we act accordingly. And this includes believing all the warnings about the last days and the kinds of things which are to take place, and to not ignore them as though they are a fairytale, or as though they do not apply to us because we have been convinced that we will escape it all.

My Eyes Were Opened

I was born in the USA, and it is where I have lived my entire life. From early on in my life I was taught to worship my government via the pledge (vow) of allegiance (fidelity) to the US flag and its government, and with hand over heart (see Revelation 13). And I was taught to sing patriotic songs of worship of my government and of my nation and to honor our military as our heroes who are the ones keeping us safe from our “enemies.” And I was not taught this just in public school, but I was taught this in the gatherings of the church where the US flag was prominently displayed next to the pulpit. 

And I was taught to believe my government, that whatever they said they were doing, that they were, in fact, doing. And I was taught to believe the national news, that if they said it, it must be true. And I was taught to believe whatever was stated in our history books, that things happened just as they said they did. And I had no basis for questioning these things, for I had no direct knowledge of any of these things, whether or not they were true. I just assumed that they were. But 21 years ago that all changed when God began opening my eyes to what has been going on for many years.

Beginning in 2004, the Lord began to lead me to do all kinds of research at a time when the Internet was still fairly wide open, and not on just one subject. And he had me looking into the history of the USA and our founders and our national symbols and buildings and statues and emblems, and the layout of Washington, DC. And this did not speak of one nation under the One True God, but of one nation built on freemasonry and the religion of universalism and the worship of false and mythological gods. Although outwardly they appeared “Christian,” historically and presently they’re not.

You see, I was ignorant of all these things. And then God began teaching me about the Bilderbergs, the Trilateral Commission, the Council on Foreign Relations, NATO, the UN, the IMF, the World Bank, the Federal Reserve, Freemasons, Zionism, the Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, the deep state, the WHO, Big Pharma, the WEF, the powerful elite, the New World Order, the All-Seeing Eye (national symbol), international law, the UN Bill of Rights, the shadow government, and Washington, D.C. history, etc. And all of this was absolutely new and foreign to me. But I needed to know about these.

So God, by his Spirit, was making me aware of all these institutions, and so much more, because they all play a critical role in the rule of the beast, which is in motion, and which is certainly alive and active and rising presently. And he was teaching me about weather manipulation and all sorts of evils being committed by the US government and their political allies on a consistent and habitual basis. And he was showing me how our government and military created many “false flag” operations in order to get into other countries to kill, to steal, and to destroy, and not to “save,” as promoted.

“For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.” (Matthew 24:24)

Now the things that the Lord was opening up my mind to were all new to me, but the truth of it all was becoming more and more clear day by day. And then my husband and I began seeing on the internet that there were other people saying the same things, some of whom had been in the inner workings of it all, but had gotten out of it. And more and more, what God was helping me to see was being validated by many others. And the bottom line of it all is that the US government is not who they say they are, but they work for those bringing us into this rule of the beast (see Revelation 13).

But all I can ask of you, my readers, is that you take this to the Lord in prayer, and that you ask him to show you who is who, and what they are up to, so that you are not deceived into trusting those who are against God but who appear outwardly as though they believe in the One True God.

In My Heart of Hearts

 

Testing The Spirits

“I pursued my enemies and overtook them,

And I did not turn back until they were consumed.

I shattered them, so that they were not able to rise;

They fell under my feet.

For You have girded me with strength for battle;

You have subdued under me those who rose up against me.” 

(Psalm 18:37-39 NASB1995)

We know that Satan is our enemy. And all who serve him, who work for him in opposing God – Father, Son Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit – they are our enemies. For they are those who are going against the truth of the gospel in order to deceive the masses and to take them captive to the schemes of the devil. But our battle is not against flesh and blood. We are not to fight Satan and his hordes with the weapons of this world, but with the armor of God, which is the spiritual armor we are to use to defeat the enemy of our souls.

“Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm.” (Ephesians 6:13)

We who believe in Jesus are in a battle of truth against lies. For Satan is the father of lies who speaks lies to the people to convince them that the lies are the truth they must embrace, and that the truth is the lie which they must now reject and cast aside. So, his goal is not just to convince the people to believe his lies, but his goal is also to get the people rejecting the truth of God’s Word as taught in the correct biblical context. So his messengers twist the truth of God’s word, in order to remove the truth, so as to speak the lies.

But this is not being done just in the spiritual realm having to do with the teachings of the Scriptures, but this is being done in the political realm of government over the people. For how many times have you been told to reject something someone said as a “conspiracy theory,” and told that you are not to believe it as the truth? How many times have you been taught that your government are “the good guys,” and all who are opposed to them are “the bad guys”? But what if all this is the opposite of what is truth??

We live in an age of massive deception! Lies and liars abound wherever you look. And in the USA we were (and are being) taught all sorts of lies from birth, to adulthood, and to old age. And we are being taught these lies in many of the gatherings of what are called “churches,” and in our public and private schools, and in institutions of higher learning, including in religious seminaries, as well as on social media, on the internet, and on Television, and via our heads of government and the news media and Hollywood, etc. 

So, as followers of Jesus, we need to be discerning people who are testing the spirits against the teachings of the Scriptures, taught in their correct biblical context, and who are praying for godly wisdom to identify the “good guys” from the “bad guys.” For not all is as it appears to be. We are lied to so much, and even by “trusted” people, and by people who appear “godly” outwardly, that it can be difficult sometimes to know who is telling the truth and who is speaking the lies disguised as truth. So this needs much prayer!

Bombs are bursting. Night is falling.

Jesus Christ is gently calling

You to follow Him in all ways.

Trust Him with your life today.

Make Him your Lord and your Savior.

Turn from your sin. Follow Jesus.

He will forgive you of your sin;

Cleanse your heart, made new within.

Men betraying: Our trust fraying.

On our knees to God we’re praying,

Seeking God to give us answers

That are only found in Him.

God is sovereign over all things.

Nothing from His mind escaping.

He has all things under His command,

And will work all for good.

Jesus Christ is gently calling

You to follow Him in all ways.

Men deceiving: We’re believing

In our Lord, and interceding

For our nation and its people

To obey their God today.

He is our hope for our future.

For our wounds He offers suture.

He is all we need for this life.

Trust Him with your life today.
