DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE to say: “I’m too busy”! God Forbid.

Are you too busy to eat the food which was put here by God?

Are you too busy to drink the water which was put here by God?

Are you too busy to spend time with other people who were created by God?

Are you too busy to make money in this world which on exists on the land and sea created by God?

Are you too busy with this lifetime given to you by God?

“Blessed be the LORD God of Israel [FROM EVERLASTING, AND TO EVERLASTING]. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 41:13).

When we DAILY take up the CROSS OF JESUS, we must deny ourselves and let SPIRIT OF CHRIST which lives in us lead us do LIVE by the SPIRIT and not by the flesh to inherit EVERLASTING LIFE (Matthew 25:31-34) (Romans 8:12-13) (Galatians 6:7-8) (Revelation 20:11-15).

Our Lord JESUS says: “It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: [THE WORDS THAT I SPEAK UNTO YOU, THEY ARE SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE]” (John 6:63).

The Apostle Paul expressed said: “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless [I LIVE; YET NOT I, BUT CHRIST LIVETH IN ME]: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20).

“For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself. For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living” (Romans 14:7-9).

“There is therefore now [NO CONDEMNATION TO THEM WHICH ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, WHO WALK] not after the flesh, but after [THE SPIRIT]” (Romans 8:1).

“[BE NOT DECEIVED]; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For [HE THAT SOWETH TO HIS FLESH SHALL OF THE FLESH REAP CORRUPTION]; but [HE THAT SOWETH TO THE SPIRIT SHALL OF THE SPIRIT REAP LIFE EVERLASTING]” (Galatians 6:7-8).

The day is SOON COMING when the ‘perfect storm’ now forming all over this world will trigger an EVENT leading to a DOMINO EFFECT OF EVENTS causing a ‘paradigm shift’ which will TURN LIFE UPSIDE DOWN, and many people will be in SHOCK AND FEAR because of the SUDDEN EVENTS unfolding around the world!

“[MEN’S HEARTS FAILING THEM FOR FEAR, AND FOR LOOKING AFTER THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE COMING ON THE EARTH]: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken” (Luke 21:26).

WE MUST NOT BE AFRAID to face the GREAT RESET which bring about a so called ‘NEW WORLD ORDER’ which is the rise of the SEVENTH and LAST WORLD KINGDOM (Daniel 8:23–24) (Daniel 11:36–37) (Revelation 17:10-11).

DO NOT FEAR because our Lord JESUS, the LORD God’s LIGHT AND SALVATION is always with us even to the END OF THE WORLD (Matthew 24:36; 28:20) (John 12:44–46).

DO NOT LOSE HOPE; KEEP FAITHFUL TO GOD AND JESUS TO THE END.

Our Lord JESUS says: “These things must come to pass” (Luke 21:9).

“[AND YE SHALL HEAR OF WARS AND RUMOURS OF WARS]: see that ye [BE NOT TROUBLED: FOR ALL THESE THINGS MUST COME TO PASS], but [THE END IS NOT YET]” (Matthew 24:6).

“[FOR NATION SHALL RISE AGAINST NATION, AND KINGDOM AGAINST KINGDOM]: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. [ALL THESE ARE THE BEGINNING OF SORROWS].

Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. [BUT HE THAT SHALL ENDURE UNTO THE END, THE SAME SHALL BE SAVED]. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (Matthew 24:7-14).

“[FEAR NONE OF THOSE THINGS WHICH THOU SHALT SUFFER]: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into [PRISON, THAT YE MAY BE TRIED; AND YE SHALL HAVE TRIBULATION TEN DAYS]: [BE THOU FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH], and I will give thee a [CROWN OF LIFE]” (Revelation 2:10).

“A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold” (Proverbs 22:1).

“[LABOUR NOT TO BE RICH]: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? [FOR RICHES CERTAINLY MAKE THEMSELVES WINGS]; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven” (Proverbs 23:4-5).

LABOUR TO BECOME RICH IN FAITH (Mark 8:36-37)!

“Hath not God chosen the [POOR OF THIS WORLD RICH IN FAITH, AND HEIRS OF THE KINGDOM] which he hath promised to them that love him?” (James 2:5).

JESUS, the ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD, says: “[HOW HARDLY SHALL THEY THAT HAVE RICHES ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF GOD]” (Luke 18:24).  

“[WOE UNTO YOU THAT ARE RICH]; for ye have received your consolation” (Luke 6:24).

“TAKE HEED, AND BEWARE OF COVETOUSNESS: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth” (Luke 12:15).

“[FOR WHAT SHALL IT PROFIT A MAN, IF HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD, AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL]? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mark 8:36-37).

“No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. [YE CANNOT SERVE GOD AND MAMMON]” (Luke 16:13).

“[LAY NOT UP FOR YOURSELVES TREASURES UPON EARTH], where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: [FOR WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE WILL YOUR HEART BE ALSO]” (Matthew 6:19-21).

“[LABOUR NOT FOR THE MEAT WHICH PERISHETH, BUT FOR THAT MEAT WHICH ENDURETH UNTO EVERLASTING LIFE], which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed” (John 6:26-27).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

“[GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH, A VERY PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE]. The LORD of hosts is [WITH US]; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah” (Psalm 46:1, 11).

With growing uncertainty over work, wages, and wellbeing with the continued global Novel Coronavirus pandemic, we must be reminded DAILY that our HELP comes from the LORD.

“[OUR HELP IS IN THE NAME] of the LORD, who made heaven and earth” (Psalm 124:8).

“Thus saith the LORD the maker thereof, the LORD that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is his [NAME]” (Jeremiah 33:2).

“[IS THERE A GOD BESIDE ME? ‘YEA, THERE IS NO GOD; I KNOW NOT ANY]’” (Isaiah 44:7–8). “For all the earth is mine” (Exodus 19:5).

“[PUT NOT YOUR TRUST] in princes, nor [IN] the son of [MAN], in whom there is [NO HELP]. His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish. [HAPPY IS HE THAT HATH THE GOD OF JACOB FOR HIS HELP], whose hope is in the LORD his God” (Psalm 146:3-5).

“The Lord [IS MY HELPER], and I WILL NOT FEAR what man shall do unto me (Hebrews 13:6).  “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God” (Hebrews 11:31).

“I WILL lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

[MY HELP COMETH FROM] the LORD, which [MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH].

He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore” (Psalm 121:1-8).

“Blessed be the LORD God of Israel [FROM EVERLASTING, AND TO EVERLASTING]. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 41:13).

The LORD God, the Father is EVERLASTING TO EVERLASTING and His Only Begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ is ALIVE FOREVER (Psalm 93:1-2) (Hebrews 13:8) (Revelation 1:18).

DO NOT make the mistake to choose the Antichrist over JESUS CHRIST in the soon COMING End of Years (Matthew 25:31-34; 41; 46) (Revelation 13:1-18)!

To choose the Antichrist will be the choice to serve the prince of this world, the devil aka Satan and the fallen angels, the gods of this world.

“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches” (Revelation 3:22).

“[NOW THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH: BUT IF ANY MAN DRAWS BACK, MY SOUL SHALL HAVE NO PLEASURE IN HIM]. But [WE ARE NOT OF THEM WHO] draw back unto perdition; but of them that [BELIEVE TO THE SAVING OF THE SOUL]” (Hebrews 10:38–39).

“And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, [CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY WHOM YE WILL SERVE]; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: [BUT AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSE, WE WILL SERVE] the LORD. And the people answered and said, [GOD FORBID THAT WE SHOULD FORSAKE] the LORD, to serve other gods” (Joshua 24:15-16).

“I AM the LORD thy God. Thou shalt have [NO OTHER] gods before me” (Exodus 20:2–3).

“I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me” (Isaiah 45:5).

“Blessed be the LORD God of Israel [FROM EVERLASTING, AND TO EVERLASTING]. Amen, and Amen” (Psalm 41:13).

Our Lord Jesus Christ warned, says: “No man, having put his hand to the plough, [AND LOOKING BACK], is fit for the Kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62).

“Remember Lot’s wife” (Luke 17:32).

Lot, his wife and two daughters were elected to be SAVED from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. The angels of God told them, saying: “Escape for thy life; [LOOK NOT BEHIND THEE], neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed” (Genesis 19:17).

Lot’s wife did not BELIEVE the word of God as spoken by the angels of God :…”LOOK NOT BEHIND THEE,…”.. Lot’s wife was disobedient to the word of God; LOT’S WIFE DID NOT ENDURE TO THE END AND LOST HER SALVATION!

Lot’s wife loved life so much in Sodom and Gomorrah that she had to have one last look, but it was not to be, because she turned into a pillar of salt (Genesis 19:26).

We must not to look back to this world on this earth to the LUSTS, PLEASURES, AND PRIDE OF LIFE, in other words, the “pollutions” of this world because Peter, a disciple of Jesus warned, saying:

“[FOR IF AFTER THEY HAVE ESCAPED THE POLLUTIONS OF THE WORLD] through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, [THE LATTER END IS WORSE WITH THEM THAN THE BEGINNING]” (2 Peter 2:20).

The Apostle Paul also warned, said: “[TAKE HEED, BRETHREN, LEST THERE BE IN ANY OF YOU AN EVIL HEART OF UNBELIEF, IN DEPARTING FROM THE LIVING GOD]. But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto [THE END]” (Hebrews 3:12-14).

“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen” (Romans 16:20).

“Grace be with all them that [LOVE] our Lord Jesus Christ in [SINCERITY]. Amen” (Ephesians 6:23-24).

“[JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER]” (Hebrews 13:8). “Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

We must not get comfortable in this world because by the word of God this world is COMING to an End (Revelation 11:18). “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God” (1 Corinthians 3:19). “And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that [DOETH THE WILL OF GOD ABIDETH FOREVER]” (1 John 2:17).

“[AND BE NOT CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD]: but [BE YE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND], that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” (Romans 12:2).

“For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. [AND THE WORLD PASSETH AWAY], and the lust thereof: [BUT HE THAT DOETH THE WILL OF GOD ABIDETH FOREVER]” (1 John 2:16–17).

“For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven” (Psalm 119:89).

To do the will of GOD is to BELIEVE the word of GOD is to BELIEVE in the ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD: “[NO MAN HATH SEEN GOD] at any time; [THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him” (John 1:18).

“[FOR SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD MEN HAVE NOT HEARD, NOR PERCEIVED BY THE EAR, NEITHER HATH THE EYE SEEN], O God, beside thee, what [HE HATH PREPARED FOR HIM THAT WAITETH FOR HIM]” (Isaiah 64:4).

“[FOR THERE IS ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR] between God and men, the man Christ Jesus: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5–6).

“That whosoever [BELIEVETH IN HIM SHOULD] not perish, but [HAVE ETERNAL LIFE]” (John 3:15).

“Jesus Christ the same [YESTERDAY], and [TODAY], and [FOREVER]” (Hebrews 13:8).

“To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 5:11).

JESUS says: “Search the Scriptures; for in them ye think ye have [ETERNAL LIFE]: and they are they which testify of me. And ye will not [COME TO ME, THAT YE MIGHT HAVE LIFE]” (John 5:39–40).

“[BLESSED ARE THEY THAT HEAR THE WORD] of God, and keep it” (Luke 11:28).

“[IT IS THE SPIRIT THAT QUICKENETH]; the flesh profiteth nothing: [THE WORDS THAT I SPEAK UNTO YOU, THEY ARE SPIRIT, AND THEY ARE LIFE]” (John 6:63).

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that [HEARETH MY WORD], and [BELIEVETH] on him that sent me, hath [EVERLASTING LIFE], and shall not come into condemnation; but is [PASSED FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE]” (John 5:24).

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall [NEVER SEE DEATH]” (John 8:51).

“[HE THAT REJECTETH ME, AND RECEIVETH NOT MY WORDS], hath one that judgeth him: [THE WORD THAT I HAVE SPOKEN, THE SAME SHALL JUDGE HIM IN THE LAST DAY]” (John 12:48).

“Heaven and earth shall pass away, but [MY WORDS SHALL NOT PASS AWAY]” (Matthew 24:35).

“Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).

GOD the FATHER is the GOD OF PEACE, and HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON is the SON OF PEACE (Isaiah 9:6) (Hebrews 13:20-21). God’s Elect, the CHILDREN OF GOD are CHILDREN OF PEACE (Matthew 5:8).

We must do our utmost best DAILY to live in PEACE with EVERYONE and in EVERY SITUATION.  The Apostle Paul said: “[FOLLOW PEACE WITH ALL MEN], and [HOLINESS], without which [NO MAN SHALL SEE] the Lord” (Hebrews 12:14). “[FOR GOD HATH NOT GIVEN US THE SPIRIT OF FEAR]; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7).

“[KEEP THY HEART WITH ALL DILIGENCE]; for out of it are the issues of life” (Proverbs 4:23).

Our Lord JESUS CHRIST, The Prince of Peace says: “Blessed are the [PEACEMAKERS]: for they shall be called the [CHILDREN OF GOD]” (Matthew 5:8) .

“Blessed are the [PURE IN HEART]: [FOR THEY SHALL SEE GOD]” (Matthew 5:9).

“[BLESSED ARE THEY WHICH ARE PERSECUTED FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS’ SAKE]: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:10).

“[PEACE I LEAVE WITH YOU, MY PEACE I GIVE UNTO YOU]: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. [LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED, NEITHER LET IT BE AFRAID]’” (John 14:27).

“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have [PEACE]. [IN THE WORLD YE SHALL HAVE TRIBULATION]: but be of [GOOD CHEER]; I have [OVERCOME] the world” (John 16:33).

“I am with you alway, even unto the [END OF THE WORLD]. Amen” (Matthew 28:20).

The Apostle Paul also said: “Abstain from all appearance of evil” (1 Thessalonians 5:22).

“Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, [LIVE PEACEABLY WITH ALL MEN]” (Romans 12:17-18).

“Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with [TRUTH], and having on the breastplate of [RIGHTEOUSNESS]; And your feet shod with the preparation of the [GOSPEL OF PEACE]; Above all, taking the shield of [FAITH], wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of [SALVATION], and the sword of the [SPIRIT], which is the word of God” (Ephesians 6:13-17).

“Now the [GOD OF PEACE], that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the [EVERLASTING COVENANT], Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen” (Hebrews 13:20-21).

“Now the [GOD OF PEACE] be with you all. Amen” (Romans 15:33).

“And the [GOD OF PEACE] shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen” (Romans 16:20).

“And the very [GOD OF PEACE] sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the [COMING] of our Lord Jesus Christ” (1 Thessalonians 5:23).

“[JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY, AND TODAY, AND FOREVER]” (Hebrews 13:8). “Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).
