My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ our soon coming King directed me to write my first article in September 2009," Complacency kills" and since then I have completed other articles and finally He has prompted me to write this my final article. The Lord has used me in all these articles to focus on HIM and the prevailing apostasy which has been wreaking havoc among His people.
My being used by his Holy Spirit to write these articles was not based on my being more righteous than anyone but was primarily based on my "willingness" to be used as an instrument to write what He directed me to write, I am quite sure there were many sceptics,scoffers and mockers who read these articles and there were were those who heeded the warnings and gave their lives to our soon coming King.
My friends for those who mocked and challenged the authenticity of the authority of such an anointing please be reminded that this mistake was commited by Korah and his cohorts who challenged the authenticity of God's anointing of Moses and Aaron to do His chosen work. In the book of Numbers 16, Korah and his cohorts confronted Moses and Aaron saying to them angrily in verse 3.." You have gone too far, everyone in the community is holy just like yourselves the Lord also is among them ,why do you exalt yourselves above everyone else? " The problem was my friends,Moses and Aaron were not trying to be more holy than any one else, NO, they were directed by God,anointed by God to follow Him ....unfortunately Korah and his cohorts thought otherwise,they knew about the verbal flaw of Moses, he could barely speak properly he had a problem communicating verbally,he stuttered when he tried to speak sometimes so God had to give him Aaron to speak for him at times, "Korah and his cohorts knew of these flaws and reasoned how could God use someone so flawed for HIS anointed work. Korah and his cohorts challenged God's anointed servants out of human jealousy and rebellious hearts and dearly paid the price,in verse 35..they were consumed by the fire of God.
In the book of Acts 5 we find another case where God was using Peter and Apostles in a mighty anointed way and the opposition resented this work of God being done through them but there was a man,a wise man,his name was Gamaliel, a lawyer,he told the opposition in verse 38.." ..now I tell you stay away from these men leave them alone,if the work they are doing is not of God it will come to nothing" then he said in verse 39.." BUT if this work is of God,you will not be able to overthrow..you may even be found fighting against God.."
My life my friends has been very transparent, it has been far from perfect,many times I have found myself in the valley experiences rather than the peak experiences of life...He has reminded me mercifully that just as Peter was initially sifted by satan, tossed to and fro by his quick temper and fleshly mistakes he was later used mightily by the Holy Spirit to carry out God's work and after maturing was also able with wisdom to lovingly encourage his brethren.
He reminded me that He is God and was going to use me regardless of my flaws to write and declare Himself the solution to this world's problems especially apostasy. He reminded me that His using me in this capacity was not going to prevent me from going through the trials and hard times we are facing in today's world BUT He promised me that He would protect me when I am going through the fiery trials of these times and although I will feel the heat, the flames will not consume me,He will be my insulation. He reminded me that however trying the situation is ,however fiery he will deliver me..He says in Isaiah 43:2 " You will not be scorched when you walk through the fire" ..He reminded me that he fully understands the impasse I am facing regarding employment,He understands the many hours of applying on-line seems to be fruitless,the many hours of walking,the domestic issues,the reality of seeing my efforts falling short causing at times a sense of panic BUT he encouraged me to HOLD ON because He has a purpose for this.
He said I must be like Habakkuk who even though his efforts seemed fruitless and nothing seemed to be happening said with faith and reverence in Habbakkuk 3:17-18 " Though..there are no fruits on the vine...and the field produce no food....YET will I triumph in the Lord"
He reminded me that the temptation to compromise in order to survive is very real but I must not be like Esau who sold out because he had a hunger problem,He said I must hold on,He said unbelievers are watching me,especially in these times I must depend on Him,I must focus on Him and if I am in any compromising situation I am to give it up and depend solely on Him, I am to Lift His Standard to the world because His coming is at hand.
He encouraged me through His Holy Spirit to be like Daniel's three friends Shadrach,Meshach
and Abednego who when faced with an opportunity to survive by compromising their belief and dependence on God said boldly in faith to King Nebuchadnezzar in Daniel 3:17-18.." If the God we serve exists He can rescue us......BUT even if He does not..we will not serve your gods..."
My friends I humbly thank God for having used me in the capacity He has and that he gave me an opportunity to witness for Him,in closing He,through His Holy Spirit,the Root and the Offspring of David, The bright Morning Star has prompted me to make one final appeal to those who have a knowledge of God and are miserably failing in their duties before God to be honorable vessels before Him,He is saying one last time, stop being blind watchmen because of compromise...He said in Isaiah 56:10-12 "...watchmen are blind...they are MUTE dogs,they cannot bark..they love to sleep..these dogs they have fierce appetites,they never have enough
and they are shepherds( have the Knowledge of right and wrong)..they have no discernment
all of them turn to their own gain..they say come let us get some wine,let us guzzle and tomorrow will be far better"....Yes indeed pretty soon we will behold Him just before His wrath is unleashed upon this deceived world, no wonder he said in Revelations 22:14 " Blessed are those who wash their robes so that they may have the right to the Tree of life..."
He says in verse 11 same chapter "...let the filthy go being filthy and let the holy go on being holy.." My friends awake from your slumber before it is too late,he truly desires that none should perish,repent turn from your sins ,accept Him as Lord and Savior and you will not regret your decision.
In closing allow me to pray:
" Lord Jesus,our soon coming King I have been humbly faithful and grateful to have been used by You as one of your many instruments in declaring Your message of hope to this world,I pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the the protection of those who are currently servants of Yeshua in Israel that they might be used mightily throughout Israel in bringing others of the 12 tribes to know the saving grace of Yeshua Hamashiach and His shed Blood...Be with them Oh Lord Jesus and other believers across the world,uphold us by Your Holy Spirit,empower us,keep us from the evil one,protect our homes,sprinkle Your precious Blood on the door posts of our minds,protect us from a life of compromiseOh Lord.
Help us Lord to be bold witnesses of Your Gospel Message...Lord Jesus,Yeshua Hamashiach
we are looking forward to Your coming ....we bow before Our Mighty redeeming King !!!
