Newness of Life

 I have been watching Trumps stance on Isreal because the AC, whoever he is, will "divide the land for gain" er, money. Trump supported this solution and said it plainly when he rolled out the UAE deal, so this should not come as a surprise. An hour after Trump announced that the deal was done back in January of 2020, a 7.7 quake struck and Miami shook to the point that high rise buildings were evacuated. Now, the UN is talking about a two state solution as Israel nears it's 80th year and 8th decade and wouldn't you know that an 8.8 quake strikes off the coast of Russia!? Coincidence? I wonder what excuses will be made for this stance. Trust the plan. It's just like a believer trusting God no matter what happens. I will say it again, once you have "prophets" declare that a man will save us and is God's anointed, you have effectively called that man "God".  Trump is being used of God, but not in the way that we think. That's my convictio...

  Apparently I went through a blog creating phase and forgot about it. One of my blogs was about going through unemployment for a short time called "Walking On Water". I just read one of the posts from November 2008 and kind of like it. I think I might have been wiser back then, or maybe it's just that 2020 hadn't pickled my brain yet. Here it is. If you are pressed for time just skip to the list at the bottom.  Well, I have found gainful employment doing exactly what I didn't want to do, therapy. This past year has been a painful, challenging time of transition. I feel like I have been stretched like taffy, to the point that I thought I would break. Only taffy doesn't break does it? It only gets longer and thinner. I suppose the analogy holds for us, or maybe not. Taffy analogies aside, I have made it to the other side of this great chasm, such that I can no longer say that I am walking on water, well, not completely anyways. Actually, I feel a little bit lik...

 (Editing in progress) I have been thinking a lot about Israel as we are watching things unfold with the peace deal, war etc. from the pages of scripture and over the last few years I have had a check in my spirit about how we think about Israel. I know that this is a hot potato topic, for good reason, and I want to hear the Lord’s voice on it. I had to ask myself if I had been taught of the Lord about Israel or from man, and I realized that most of my teaching has been indoctrination from the church and not what the Lord has taught by His Spirit, so I began searching.  Word About Israel: First, from my experience in Israel, I know the Lord’s heart for His people there. I experienced it especially in 2007. That was the trip that marked me, and it was also when He showed me that we were going into the third day of His return and the one new man (Jew and Gentile) coming together to be His dwelling by the Spirit. He said that is actually the third temple, God’s dwelling among u...

 (Jame's video: The Water Just Broke with important word from the Lord is posted below if you want to skip my commentary!) Try to stay or scroll to at least 1 hr. 10 minutes to hear what he is saying about the Peace Deal and the floods etc. So insightful. The Voice that has been teaching me about our times has not resonated with the loudest voices in the church right now. When I found Jamie Walden last year, I heard him speak what the Lord was saying, and it was like finding a diamond in the coal mine-and necessary because we must have an echo somewhere to really get solid on a truth. There will always be a few witnesses.  There have been two times when that echo issued such a strong warning that I could physically feel my inner man tremble, and this was the second time. Jamie's word is that people are giving glory to man by focusing on God's "enemies" when God is the one trying to speak from heaven  (read Isaiah 7 and 8 there is a lot there.)  Many are focused on...
