faith in the Lord and in his Word does not open a way for us where everything is easy and calm; it does not rescue us from life’s storms. Faith gives us the assurance of a Presence, the presence of Jesus who encourages us to overcome the existential tempests, the certainty of a hand that grabs hold of us so as to help us face the difficulties, pointing the way for us even when it is dark. Faith, in short, is not an escape route from life’s problems, but it sustains the journey and gives it meaning.

So as you can plainly see, there will be those who oppose the coming Assyrian... There will be those who oppose the Anti-Christ... And these who oppose that Assyrian, will lay waste to the land of Assyria, and Babylon... So if ya dont know where Assyria is, Just think of a large swath of land through Turkey, Those little nations south of Russia and North of Turkey, (All of the Stans, and Armenia and whatnot) and Syria too... And then broaden that to include the entrances to the Land of Babylon... It's a HUGE area... And when ya look at the pic I share, think about Syene and the Prophecies for Egypt 😉
Jesus Christ plainly told us where the seat of satan is... I'll give ya one clue... The area it is in is in the Pic above... And guess what... It aint Moscow... Or Rome... -----------------------------
You can actually do Studies on the land of Assyria, and the Assyrians, that will lead you to in depth understandings of stories we tell our kids... Like The Story of Jonah... There is so much there that it is mind boggling... Of course without Prayer and Guidance, you will just end up with a mis-understanding that is flawed at best... Kind of like those peeps who use there flawed logic to make TV specials that look for the Garden of Eden here on Earth... They ask questions like "Where was it"... As if it is gone now or something... They have no real understanding of what is written, or spiritual matters in general to be honest... They mis-read just about everything (or at least a lot) and present flawed arguments from a flawed logic... So be careful out there... And here too... Many are the ravenous wolves who seek to kill steal and destroy... And many are dressed as sheep, and some few are dressed as shepherds, and some are dressed as sheep dogs... But not only be careful of those, but those of us who have incomplete understandings too... Innocent of ill will many of us seekers may be, but many is the time that I have realized that what I once believed was not complete, and sometimes even completely wrong and in error... So keep your eyes peeled and those Bibles open when discussing such matters... And do not fear to be wrong... How can we be corrected OR shown the truth OR come to a deeper level of understanding, if we are not brave enough to throw our thoughts out there to begin with???
I was feeling extra blessed tonight, so I pulled up one of my fav. Videos...I don’t know if it’s the words, the song, or the setting, but I li hope u can enjoy too (it could be the topic 😍) https://youtu.be/aZTAMYiAOdc
Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent, even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.
My mic will not unmute, so I will post a written prayer...Heavenly Father, please grant all who are seeking You for guidance, strength, courage, wisdom and whatever else is needed in this journey we are on in trying to expose the darkness, an abudance of Your TRUTH, GRACE, DISCERNMENT, HUMILITY, MEEKNESS, FAITH, HOPE, ENDURANCE, and anything else that is needed to do Your work and complete Your will, For Such a Time as This.
@Nightring keep it coming! Am loving it! Wisdom, discernment, and Holy Spirit all are needed to peel back the layers of the Word. ❤
Rom 11:33
O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
This morning I fussed at a guy in Patriots Soapbox youtube for something he said that could be read as vulgar. The stream went down and he sent me DM and apologized and explained he didn't mean it but could see how it could be taken. Then he said he felt my fussing at him was for a reason and the conversation lead to his salvation! Please pray for him. I won't name him. God knows who he is. It was the most wonderful thing. Thank you Jesus I give you all the praise and the glory! Amen!
2Co 10:3
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
2Co 10:4
(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
2Co 10:5
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
