2 Timothy 3: The End Times

2 Timothy 3 

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. ² People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, ³ without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, ⁴ treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— ⁵ having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people."

 

Be Glad and Rejoice because you do not belong to such people for you have been declared with Power to be Sons and Daughters of the Living God.

 

Dear Children you have been chosen and marked to be seated in the place of power at God's righthand.

Do you not know who you really are

You are not your own for you have been purchased with a price

You have been redeemed and set free 

I am the Lord of all things, both seen and unseen, both high and low, both big and small

It is I who ordered the stars in their magnitude I made them by my powerful Word.

I know them by name.

It is I who made the Sun and the Moon to mark days and seasons.

And it is I who made man to be body and soul and spirit.

 

Both body and soul will be destroyed, only the spirit remains eternal, for it is the Spirit that gives life to body and soul for without the Spirit, men are dead.

 

But as your name is written in the book of life He has given you life through His Spirit.

It is He who intercedes for you before the righteous judge who shall judge all men both living and dead

Tread where He treads for He leads you on the right path  Walk in His footsteps and you will be blessed.

Amen   

 

He is Mighty and Awesome

Psalm 24

Of David. A psalm.

 

1 The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it;

 

2 for he founded it on the seas and established it on the waters.


3 Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place?
 

4 The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god.


5 They will receive blessing from the Lord and vindication from God their Savior.
 

6 Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek your face, God of Jacob.


7 Lift up your heads, you gates; be lifted up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
 

8 Who is this King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.
 

9 Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in.
 

10 Who is he, this King of glory? The Lord Almighty he is the King of glory.

 

 I am the Lord: You are mine, together with all you survey.

Trust in me and worship my name and I will bless you in these days.

 

The King of Heaven has come By Him you cry ABBA Father.

He alone is worthy to be praised.

He is Strong and Mighty in battle.

None can defeat him for He is the Lord of Heavens Armies.

He alone is God Almighy.

He alone is deliverer.

He alone is Savior. 

 

I alone have defeated that ancient serpent called the devil.

I took back the keys of Hades and Sheol.

See the false prophet and the antichrist are already in chains 

 

No longer does the dominion of Man belong to the evil one.

For the risen Christ bought it with His blood.

Come exchange your sorrow for joy and your weeping for laughter.

For He is Justice and He is Fire.

Surely He will Judge rightly.

And throw away the chaff and the dross.

 

Come I shall pour out everything planned for you in good order and due season.

Nothing shall be be left undone 

For I am both Author and Finisher

 

He wrote the books of creation  and He knows how it ends 

Surely you can trust the perfector and the finisher 

 

Amen 

 

No time like Now

 I am the ever-present God 

There is none like me!

Though I am patient with men 

There will come a day when I will Judge 

I tell you there is day called today

and a moment called now 

In which to seek the God who made you 

I am chasing you down, running after you 

I am a merciful God 

I show mercy to all mankind

I created all things 

Can you not see?

Do you not know?

It is I who formed you from the dust of the earth.

and to that dust you shall return

You are here for a brief moment and then no more.

Do not think there will be a tomorrow 

For I tell you today and now is that most hallowed moment in which to seek your God.

No one knows the day or the hour that life will cease 

So make today count toward your eternal reward 

Did you not know there is a mansion awaiting my servants who do due dilligence 

Yet even now there are some of you who will escape as through flame 

You will get your reward sure enough

But remember this with the measure you give so shall it be measured

For it is your level of faith which shall be tested 

And remember faith without deeds is dead

Show me your faith and I will show you my deeds

Surely I shall answer you with mighty acts.

Trust in me and I shall work within you 

I shall make you complete 

There will be nothing left undone 

Amen 

 

  

 

Ancient of Days

I heard the Lord say

 

"I am the Ancient of Days 

I am before time and after time 

I spoke all  things into being 

By my Word all things, seen and unseen were created

I shall tarry with men till all things have been fulfilled.

Then the end will come 

But you need not fear 

For I am the everliving one who is without end

I am the one who renews all things and keeps created things in order

You shall live and exist in me 

For I chose you to be with me before time began

There was a time when you were dead, but behold I have given you life 

I am from everlasting to everlasting and I have chosen you to be my friend 

Do not be alarmed when I tell you that all things must end 

This broken world shall end and I shall create a new world fit for my people

I know you!

I know everything about you 

For I formed you in your mothers womb

I have counted the stars in their vast array and know them by name

I am running after you 

chasing after you 

There is nowhere to hide from my presence

I am in the depths and in the heights

I am in the valley and the mountain

I am in the depths of the sea and soar with the eagle.

I am with the blind and the deaf 

for it is I who am their guide

I speak my desires to them

I shall grant favour upon favour to my people 

For I am Father."

Amen. 

 

 

Become Holy

Heb 2:11.

So now Jesus and the ones he makes holy have the same Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them his brothers and sisters.

The family of God is growing everyday 

And our purpose is to share our very selves with a broken world 

For we are the temple of the living God 

He dwells within us 

Our hearts joined with his Heart 

His Spirit within us giving us life

Whom the Son sets free, shall be free indeed.

There is one new creation out of both Jew and Gentile. 

The wall of hostility has been broken down.

Together we are stronger together, than either of us apart 

Together we are one people, under God

Let us speak and act as one kingdom under God 

Both Jew and Non Jew alike share in His glory and peace

The Family of God is One 

He is the Almighty

He is Life and He is Peace

Who does not understand from everything that has been made, that there is, a God in heaven?

Who does not percieve the ever living One?

How can you say there is no God?

When you yourself cry out to Him in times of desperation and great need.

Surely He himself is beside you, when you reach out and call on His Almighty Name

He is not out of reach

Just reach out your hand and you will find Him.

He is ready to meet you with an open heart and an open hand 

Whatever He has is yours 

He has given you His own Spirit by which you cry ABBA Father 

Shall He not come among you and grant favour upon favour.

He the Almighty living God calls you freind

He the Almighty God calls you brother and sister.

And He is both pleased and honoured to do so

Surely it is time to walk the walk of faith and bring yourself into His most Holy Presence 

AMEN

 

A firm foundation

Jer 17:8.

"They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water.

Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought.

Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit."

 

 Dear friend, 

 

As long as you grow up emersed in the crystal clear waters of life 

Your circumstances be they stormy or desert like 

you will not come to harm  

As you journey through life you will remain fruitful and your bows will remain strong and sturdy 

even in the strongest of gales

You will produce a good crop and be fruitful till old age

All of creation will be blessed because of you

For you are my child and you are highly revered among your peers because of the light that shines from you

You are a beacon and a lighthouse for your fellow traveler

The God of Abraham, Issac, and Jacob, will guide you along your path

Follow their light for it shall steer a course to the finish over mountains and through uncharted seas 

To the destination planned for you since before the foundation of the world 

Let Him guide your choices and steer your path

For He knows all things and sees your life laid out before Him like a book 

He knows where your headed and knows how it all ends so you can be sure His commands 

are sure and true.

Amen
