Where's Jonathan?

1 Samuel 18:4

And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was upon him, and gave it to David, and his garments, even to his sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.

Saints,
Senator Berny Sanders said...Today in our time, there is such an overwhelming amount of political corruption. Theft within its highest courts, no accountability and as Jesus said even the elect have been deceived, Matthew 24:24. 

I'm not sure what happened in Ethiopia back in January, but the slaughter of 45 individuals only shows there isn't a democracy where all can vote and find an anointed one to take over the leadership of the country.  I don't know the leader of Ethiopia, yet at the same time to send troops and slaughter 45 people isn't of God.  

There is the saying we can agree to disagree.  Yet, what do I know?

The same is true in Palestine.  I've come to the conclusion the Balfour Declaration allows the displacement of Palestinians and caused such havoc upon many to relocate and outright be slaughtered.   

Deuteronomy 27:17 says: ‘Cursed is one who displaces his neighbor’s boundary marker.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

Where's Jonathan? Where is he who can be honest with himself and say 'Time to pass it onto David'.

Pharaoh recognized Joseph's anointing.  Genesis 41:42 tells us "Then Pharaoh removed the signet ring from his finger, put it on Joseph's finger, clothed him in garments of fine linen, and placed a gold chain around his neck."

I've been so GRATEFUL studying, learning, preaching on the Power of Charity!  IT WORKS!  It's the financial seed planted into the lives of the needy that once it's planted, you can't help but to allow time to bring forth the harvest of ABUNDANCE!   Over and over again, Jesus says the harvest is PLENTY, but the laborers are few.  Send out the laborers!  

So as you have employment.  Each month, do give graciously to the needy!  May start by $10 a month.  Whatever cash in your pocket, give it away! 

Galatians 6:9

Let us not grow weary or become discouraged in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap, if we do not give in.

In Closing,

Aren't you happy I'm not a lying televangelist who is a leech and says - give me, give me, give me.  NO!  

I say please give to the poor!  Working with God (Psalm 82), your future is incredibly impacted for the better! 

You Are Such A Disgrace To Society

 Deuteronomy 27:17-19, 24-25
17 ‘Cursed is one who displaces his neighbor’s boundary marker.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

18 ‘Cursed is one who misleads a person who is blind on the road.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

19 ‘Cursed is one who distorts the justice due a stranger, an orphan, or a widow.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

24 ‘Cursed is he who attacks his neighbor in secret.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’
25 ‘Cursed is he who accepts a bribe to attack an innocent person.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

Saints,

Deuteronomy 27 shares 'Cursed is one/he'.   I'll go a step further and share .. you are such a disgrace to society if you're not praying in the spirit.  From Isaiah 28:11-12, Romans 8:26-27, to the entire chapter of 1 Cronthians 14 shares the power and benefits of praying in the spirit/tongues.  My salvation was 1994 and it wasn't until 2003 where I attended a church service in Atlanta, Georgia and captured this great tool of heaven to navigate through the journey.  The revelations have allowed me to rest as the following passage describes...

Isaiah 28:11-12

11 Indeed, He will speak to this people
Through stammering lips and a foreign tongue,
12 He who said to them, “This is the place of quiet, give rest to the weary,”
And, “This is the resting place,” but they would not listen.

With praying in tongues. Quite simply this tool delivers us from our stupidity/ignorance.  The assurance of heaven's revelation is like none other.

1 Corinthians 14:18

 I thank God, I speak in tongues more than you all;

In closing,

In Vermont, roughly 2001-2002 an elderly woman 82 asked me if I prayed in the spirit.  I said no I didn't.  She graciously told me I was of the devil.  I could have been offended but thank God the following year things have changed and I'm no longer of the devil. 

Matthew 6:19-20

Matthew 6:19-20
DO NOT store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. - Jesus

Saints,

Matthew 6:19-20 is an incredible passage.  Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven (Luke 12:33) where it won't be destroyed and thieves DO NOT break in and steal.  Please understand, heaven is not a destination!  Heaven is at hand (Matthew 4:17).  The Kingdom of heaven is within you (Luke 17:21, Colossians 1:27).  WHEN WE HELP the poor, less fortunate, the homeless, the foreigner, anyone in need.  We're not only laboring with God (Psalm 82, Matthew 9:37, Luke 10:2, 1 Corinthians 3:9), but we're entering into His harvest.  Angels are alert and ready to FIGHT IN OUR BEHALF!  See the following passage...

Hebrews 13:2 (NLT)
Don’t forget to show hospitality to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it!

Hebrews 13:2 (Complete Jewish Bible)
but don’t forget to be friendly to outsiders; for in so doing, some people, without knowing it, have entertained angels. 

In closing,

Reaching the finest of life is available to everyone (1 Corinthians 1:26-31).  The Finest of life begins with helping our fellow neighbor.  God, in His infinite wisdom has leveled the playing field!   We all can have such an awesome experience!  

James 2:14-17
What good is it, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

Healing Power of Romans 7:18

Romans 7:18 (KJV)
For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

Saints,

Feel the healing power of Romans 7:18.  The power of healing one's seat of emotions (our stomach).  How?  Well, some disappointments come from the closest of those to us.  And we must understand the simplicity of 'no one is perfect', nor has ever reached perfection.  Remember in Mark 10:18 - And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. 

You see. Healing/forgiveness happens quickly when we identify with Romans 7:18 no good thing dwells us or anyone.  SO, forgive fast and experience the manifestation healing power of thank you Lord for the reminder how imperfect we all are!  Give God a Shout of Praise and Hallelujah! 

And for some who stands on Matthew 5:48 (KJV) 

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

Must also read Matthew 5:48 (AMP)

You, therefore, will be perfect [growing into spiritual maturity both in mind and character, actively integrating godly values into your daily life], as your heavenly Father is perfect.

In closing,

We're all growing, so let patience have its perfect work! 

James 1:4

But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

Hosea 8 - allies, The Apostasy of Israel

 HOSEA 8

The trumpet was blown in Israel to warn of impending battle (Num. 10:9). In this case, Assyria was coming, and there would be no escape. Israel claimed to know God (v. 2) and yet disobeyed Him (Titus 1:16). They made kings and rulers without seeking God’s will, and they made idols in defiance of the Lord. The famous calf of Samaria would be destroyed (1 Kings 12:28–30) when the eagle swooped down (v. 1) and the whirlwind came (v. 7). What seems a lovely soft wind today can become a storm tomorrow (Acts 27:13–15).
Israel had become like a piece of junk pottery on the trash heap (v. 8). They trusted the gentile nations to protect them but left God out of their plans (vv. 9–10). Israel multiplied altars (v. 11; 10:1) and Judah multiplied fortifications (v. 14), but neither could deliver from judgment. Israel would be taken by Assyria and Judah by Babylon, and God’s judgment would fall on a sinful people.
When God blows the trumpet, we had better wake up and listen!

Hosea 9:1

Do not rejoice, O Israel, with joy like other peoples,
For you have played the harlot against your God.
