The STANDARD bearer

Joel 3:9-10

King James Version

9 Proclaim ye this among the Gentiles; 

Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, 

let all the men of war draw near; 

let them come up:

10 Beat your plowshares into swords 

and your pruninghooks into spears: 

let the weak say, I am strong.

Can you feel the battle?

Can you hear GOD's warriors, beating their shields with their weapons?

I felt it, soon as I wrote this earlier article, just three hours ago.

I felt a GREAT outrage.

"ENOUGH!" Christ's soldier says.

Enough blasphemy upon the LORD.

Enough infiltration upon His church.

Enough lies from the enemy.

I feel the "positioning" of GOD's warriors.

There are only two sets of warriors.

Those for GOD.

Those against GOD.

I know where I am positioned.

SPIRIT and I have been at this since I was a child.

When GOD made me born again in 2019.

My position had become permanent, reinforced, fixed.

Sure, strong, steady, unwavering, ready.

Armed with the WORD of GOD.

Flying upon GOD's banner.

There is a "standard bearer" holding His flag.

The LORD has a BATTLE flag.

As follower, I have ONE flagship verse.

Who is a standard bearer?

"The standard-bearer acted as an indicator of where the position of a military unit was, with the bright, colourful standard or flag acting as a strong visual beacon to surrounding soldiers. Soldiers were typically ordered to follow and stay close to the standard or flag in order to maintain unit cohesion, and for a single commander to easily position his troops by only positioning his standard-bearer, typically with the aid of musical cues or loud verbal commands. It was an honorable position carrying a considerable risk, as a standard-bearer would be a major target for the opposing side's troops seeking to capture the standard or pull it down."

-- Wikipedia

That, JESUS is.

The LORD has called my attention.

For a battle to come.

We await His command.

On the RISE and FALL of GOVERNMENTS

Daniel 5:19

King James Version

19 And for the majesty that he gave him, 

all people, nations, and languages, 

trembled and feared before him: 

whom he would he slew; 

and whom he would he kept alive; 

and whom he would he set up; 

and whom he would he put down.

Do you believe GOD has power over nations?

That He can make leaders rise, or fall?

Well, we will share something with you.

PROOF positive of SUCH power.

We shall cite THREE glaring examples.

Of how leaders RISE, and FALL.

According to how they acknowledge, or deny GOD.

These, according to the most recent.

Fall of Assad (8 December 2024):

Many people have noted how the ICC has issued a warrant of arrest for Israel PM, Benjamin Netanyahu, who mobilized his troops to defend his nation, which has been savaged on 7 October 2023.

Eventually hit on seven fronts, it's been over 400 days of trying to retrieve the hostages, and securing their borders.

The same cannot be said for Syrian president, Bashar al-Assad, who seemed to have a poor record in human rights. And yet, the ICC has not issued a warrant for his arrest. The world doesn't even seem to see the plight of everyday Syrians, who have suffered for over 50 years now, from the two Assad regimes.

I knew I had to write this article you're reading now, when I read this part:

"Fervently loyalist paramilitaries known as the Shabiha (transl. 'ghosts') deify the Assad dynasty through slogans such as "There is no God but Bashar!" and pursue psychological warfare against non-conformist populations."

-- Wikipedia

What do you think GOD would do when you are cruel to your own people?

And when your followers transplant GOD with you, as "god"?

More so, when you allow others to use your nation, with the objective of destroying the "apple" of GOD's eye, Israel?

Cause for thought, yes?

Rise of Trump (5 November 2024):

Two days before the American 2024 elections, GOD gave me a particular verse which indicated Trump's win:

Ecclesiastes 3:15

King James Version

15 That which hath been is now; 

and that which is to be hath already been; 

and God requireth that which is past.

He did win.

But a week after that win, GOD gave a "warning" verse, too:

Daniel 5:20

King James Version

20 But when his heart was lifted up, 

and his mind hardened in pride, 

he was deposed from his kingly throne, 

and they took his glory from him:

That means, GOD may have "anointed" Trump, but that power could so easily be lost, if Trump gets "all proud and forgetful".

That's why we created a new blog called, "LOOKING after TRUMP", because GOD has "assigned" me for the "job".

If He didn't, why else did He give me the verses?

He knew I'd act upon it.

Trump also acknowledged GOD sparing his life.

There had been two assassination attempts at the president-elect's life.

Most of his appointees believe in GOD.

He let Christians pray over him.

How could GOD not be pleased?

Matthew 18:20

King James Version

20 For where two or three 

are gathered together in my name, 

there am I in the midst of them.

Now, imagine if Trump became born again.

And really lived a life worthy of JESUS.

That would really be something to witness.

Fall of Kamala (18 October 2024):

Kamala was having a roll at her rallies, proudly proclaiming her stand on abortion, and reproductive freedom. 

So, when two young Christians reminded her, shouting, "JESUS is LORD" and "CHRIST is KING", she had these to say, almost with an undisguised sneer:

"Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally."

"I think you meant to go at the smaller one down the street."

That was the end of her political career.

And there's no coming back from it.

JESUS made sure of that.

As you can expect, she lost.

The day SPIRIT alerted me to that "cackle" was the day I knew America was in GREAT danger.

Thus, we kept writing articles to show where she erred.

Her pride, and policies, caused her downfall.

GOD loves the "unborn"; she didn't.

She promoted "left" and "woke" agenda.

In total defiance of GOD's laws.

I felt that if America made her win, it would be disaster.

The likes of which the whole world will reel from.

But she lost, resoundingly.

I can breathe easier now.

As you can see from the three examples above, when you think you're above GOD, He'll make sure you're nowhere to be found.

When you praise and worship GOD, in all sincerity, and really want to serve people, GOD will make you succeed.

Especially now we're in the threshold of REAL change.

Of course, the world is still a "work in progress" after Trump's win.

There's still so much work to do for all who care to have a better world.

This is not a time to be "asleep at the wheel".

It is time to "WALK in the SPIRIT".

Many want to align themselves with Trump now.

Where before, they mocked and ridiculed him.

The SORE losers still do.

But the rest are falling all over themselves to be part of history.

His story.

Thus, he has to be extra careful.

About his ego, and about who to trust.

ALL GLORY belongs to GOD alone.

But we were given Trump.

Let's all work with him.

No matter which nation you are.

And pray all stay on the "path".

Which JESUS walked.

14 BRAVE countries

 Romans 11:28

King James Version

28 As concerning the gospel, 

they are enemies for your sakes: 

but as touching the election, 

they are beloved for the father's sakes.

How blind the world is!

How blind to the importance of Israel.

How blind to the love GOD has for Israel.

Our salvation is tied up with GOD's chosen country.

On 18 September, 124 UN members voted to strip Israel of her right to defend herself in the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and east Jerusalem.

There is a "spirit" behind all this.

He is the enemy of CHRIST.

The one that wants Israel destroyed.

As if GOD would ever allow that.

If only people are born again, they'd have proper respect for GOD's laws.

If only they're born again, they'd be reading the Bible.

And know the prophecies about Israel.

As well as GOD's love for her.

She cannot be destroyed.

She will always have a remnant.

GOD had spoken, and it will be so.

Apart from Israel, only 13 other countries love her.

That makes 14 votes for Israel.

They have not deprived her of her right to defend herself.

Especially in that contested region.

These nations are to be lauded for their bravery.

It takes GREAT courage to do so these days.

GOD will surely bless these countries:

Argentina

Czechoslovakia

Fiji

Hungary

Malawi 

Micronesia

Nauru

Palau

Papua New Guinea

Paraguay

Tonga

Tuvalu

United States

I also noticed something curious.

Of these countries, a whopping SEVEN are from Oceania.

Two, from Central Europe.

Two, from South America.

One, from North America.

One, from Southeastern Africa.

Israel is from West Asia, or the Near East.

Of course, I was deeply disappointed in my own country.

The Philippines voted against Israel's right to defend herself.

In stark contrast to how we are trying to defend our shores and claims from China.

And how our heroes have defended our country from past colonizers.

Even as we have ended up under their rule.

Forty-three countries abstained from voting.

It's still an answer, and a statement.

They don't want to be enmeshed in Israel's plight.

There is this spiritual blindness in most countries of the world.

Wouldn't you want to defend your country if it is being invaded?

Wouldn't you want other countries to support your cause, too?

Would you deprive a tiny country like Israel to defend herself?

Considering she's encompassed by hostile nations on all sides?

And your size being only likened to New Jersey?

And yet, this beloved nation of GOD continues to fight on.

Like a David, to many Goliaths.

She has GOD's anointing, despite her many sins against GOD.

But GOD chose her for Himself, and that's that.

Through her, GOD's GLORY will be revealed.

In GOD's own, perfect time.

In case you're not aware, we're already in the END times.

Thus, the persecution  of Israel.

That's also how you can tell who loves GOD, and who doesn't.

By the love, or hatred they have for Israel.

GOD and Israel are one.

The MESSIAH is a Jew.

JESUS knew what He and His believers were up against:

John 15:18-19

King James Version

18 If the world hate you, 

ye know that it hated me before it hated you.

19 If ye were of the world, 

the world would love his own: 

but because ye are not of the world, 

but I have chosen you out of the world, 

therefore the world hateth you.

Know this, too:

1 John 2:16

King James Version

16 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.

It's really so very plain, and simple.

GOD's law about Israel is clear:

Genesis 12:3

King James Version

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, 

and curse him that curseth thee: 

and in thee shall all families of the earth 

be blessed.

Let my vote be the 15th vote.

I stand by GOD's nation.

I love ALL that GOD loves.

Because I love GOD first.

P.S. 

Joseph, my pastor-friend, read this post.

He declares a vote for Israel, too!

Make it 16 votes then.

The 7 CONTINENTS

 

Psalm 91:1

King James Version

91 He that dwelleth 

in the secret place of the most High 

shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

It all started with a book I got yesterday.

Something on a warlord from West Africa.

"Miraculously" shedding light on what's been in my heart.

For sometime now.

Just that I had not had the time, nor clarity, to look into it.

With the question being, "Why is Africa so turbulent"?

Not long after, SPIRIT led me to that book, in answer.

Which covered the politics, and realities, of Africa.

Confirming my growing initial thoughts.

As always, my studies are guided by SPIRIT.

Every moment, of every single day.

This morning, SPIRIT led me to the word "continents".

Of course, that would cover the seven land masses!

It would be a good way to start a study.

On the future of each continent.

Of which Africa is a part of.

If that be the LORD's will.

The objective being, WHAT is the FUTURE of EACH continent?

To a born again, it's really simple.

Nations and continents, will thrive and survive, based on these:

2 Chronicles 7:14

King James Version

14 If my people, which are called by my name, 

shall humble themselves, and pray, 

and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; 

then will I hear from heaven, 

and will forgive their sin, 

and will heal their land.

Psalm 33:12

King James Version

12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; 

and the people whom he hath chosen 

for his own inheritance.

Mark 12:29-31

King James Version

29 And Jesus answered him, 

The first of all the commandments is, 

Hear, O Israel; 

The Lord our God is one Lord:

30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God 

with all thy heart, 

and with all thy soul, 

and with all thy mind, 

and with all thy strength: 

this is the first commandment.

31 And the second is like, namely this, 

Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 

There is none other commandment 

greater than these.

John 3:5-7

King James Version

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

John 3:16-17

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world, 

that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world 

to condemn the world; 

but that the world through him 

might be saved.

Another thing to consider is each nation, and continent's stand on Israel.

That tiny, embattled nation is the apple of GOD's eye.

The LORD made clear His LOVE for ISRAEL:

Genesis 12:3

King James Version

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, 

and curse him that curseth thee: 

and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

There's also PREDESTINATION.

The Bible reveals everything.

GOD has mapped out all our hearts.

He knows who loves Him.

He knows who doesn't.

He knows the thoughts, words, and deeds.

Of every man, woman, and child.

He hears the cry of every oppressed.

He knows when a sparrow falls.

He knows the hairs on our head.

Nothing is hidden from the LORD.

Shall I look into each continent?

And see what SPIRIT and Scripture have to say?

For now, this post has SEVEN verses to meditate upon.

I will also share the basics about continents.

The 17 goals

 

1 Corinthians 14:40

King James Version

40 Let all things be done decently 

and in order.

SPIRIT and I have started a series of articles regarding the world's 2o3o agenda.

This is now our third article in the series.

With the intent of exploring the viability of this agenda.

Based on Scripture, of course.

A born again always looks to GOD's will, ways, and wisdom.

GOD has the FINAL say.

The UN initiated their "2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development" in August 2015.

All 193 member nations agreed to these 17 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals):

No poverty

Zero hunger

Good health and wellbeing

Quality education

Gender equality

Clean water and sanitation

Affordable and clean energy

Decent work and economic growth

Industry, innovation and infrastructure

Reduce inequality

Sustainable cities and communities

Responsible consumption and production

Climate action

Life below water

Life on land

Peace and justice. Strong institutions

Partnerships for the goals

Now, let's look into it.

Per goal.

No poverty

"End poverty in all its forms everywhere."

Zero hunger

"End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture."

Good health and wellbeing

"Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages."

Quality education

"Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all."

Gender equality

"Achieve gender equality and empower all men and women."

Clean water and sanitation

"Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all."

Affordable and clean energy

"Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all."

Decent work and economic growth

"Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all."

Industry, innovation and infrastructure

"Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization, and foster innovation."

Reduce inequality

"Reduce inequality within and among countries."

Sustainable cities and communities

"Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable."

Responsible consumption and production

"Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns."

Climate action

"Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts by regulating emissions and promoting developments in renewable energy."

Life below water

"Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development."

Life on land

"Protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss."

Peace and justice. Strong institutions

"Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels."

Partnerships for the goals

"Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development."

Now that these are in place, we shall review its viability, versus what Scripture says.

We shall compare man's declarations, versus GOD's declarations.

And that's for this post.

Early MORNING writing

 

Psalm 143:8

King James Version

8 Cause me to hear 

thy lovingkindness in the morning; 

for in thee do I trust: 

cause me to know 

the way wherein I should walk; 

for I lift up my soul unto thee.

It started with an imprint.

Which came upon my mind.

As my eyes were still closed.

Still in the throes of sleep.

As if I had written an article.

And checking the verses, and links.

Had something to do about "brothers".

Inspired by a movie I had seen yesterday.

Wherein brotherhood was tested.

What would you do for your brother?

What happens when he commits a crime?

Would you hide him, support him, or surrender him?

What does it have to do with the fate of nations?

Read on a bit.

As GOD would have it, He made me born again.

We test everything, through Scripture.

What does the Bible say?

What did JESUS teach?

How are we to live?

How are we to love?

Today, GOD woke me up before midnight.

A bit past that, SPIRIT and I were already writing.

Five hours after, we ended up writing three articles, a tab, and this fourth you're reading now.

It's all about "brotherhood".

That was the theme given.

That was the series we developed.

Check our BROTHERHOOD series here.

It's how nations can heal.

One family at a time.

Man's FALLIBLE ways

 

Romans 1:28-29

King James Version

28 And even as they did not like 

to retain God in their knowledge, 

God gave them over to a reprobate mind, 

to do those things which are not convenient;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, 

fornication, wickedness,

covetousness, maliciousness; 

full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; 

whisperers,

A question roams in my heart.

Is the weird weather the world experiences these days, man-made, or GOD-made?

What about the environmental disasters?

So, I turn to SPIRIT to guide me.

And He guides me to a 2022 article we wrote:

on weather MODIFICATION

SPIRIT also led me back to a video we chose for that weather modification article:

This is CRAZY!! Are They Changing The Weather?!

The questions remain:

What are the long-term effects of weather manipulation?

How will short-term vision affect long term?

What are weather modification consequences?

What is the intent?

What happens when the globe rotates?

How long do the effects remain?

How will these affect people, for the long-term?

How will these affect the soil?

How will these affect the rest of creation?

Now you see why I can only put my trust in GOD.

GOD won't do what man does to each other.

Greed is often the dictator.

Add pride, and ego.

The usual mix.

Weather manipulation is "manipulation".

It's got "man" in it.

I stick to my GOD.

The FATHER of ALL.

The ONLY TRUE POWER.

GOD's will be done.

1 Chronicles 29:11

King James Version

11 Thine, O Lord is the greatness, 

and the power, 

and the glory, 

and the victory, 

and the majesty: 

for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; 

thine is the kingdom, O Lord, 

and thou art exalted as head above all.

May man wake up on time.

NATIONS under GOD

 

Exodus 20:1-6

King James Version

20 And God spake all these words, saying,

2 I am the Lord thy God, 

which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, 

out of the house of bondage.

3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, 

or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, 

or that is in the earth beneath, 

or that is in the water under the earth.

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, 

nor serve them: 

for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, 

visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children 

unto the third and fourth generation 

of them that hate me;

6 And shewing mercy 

unto thousands of them that love me, 

and keep my commandments.

Why are most nations in crisis?

Tell me the state of a nation, and I can only look to the president, and his cabinet.

Tell me the state of a nation, and I can only look to its citizens, at the matters of their heart.

Tell me the state of a nation, and I can tell you if its citizens believe in GOD.

Tell me the state of a nation, and I can tell you if it is the same GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

Tell me the state of a nation, and I can tell you if they believe, and love, JESUS.

Only through JESUS, can there be peace.

Are the people enjoying abundance?

Or are they suffering from war, poverty, and hunger?

Is the nation being run by GOD?

Or are they running away from GOD?

Look to how the world is today:

Presidents come, presidents go.

Before they can even warm their seat, they are unseated.

There seems to be a wave of unseated presidents these days.

Doesn't that create chaos in their citizens, and the programs these leaders want to implement, or have been implementing?

Isn't it a waste of time, money, and resources for the nation?

Doesn't it make people sad, and bereft of hope?

One would think, that soon as you've elected a new president, people's hopes would run high.

That change would come

But has change really come?

Are nations under the mercy of presidents?

For a godless nation, I must say yes.

For, if a nation was under GOD, there would be love for the LORD, and for people.

If a president truly loved GOD, he would read the Bible.

He would live by the Bible.

He would be a true born again.

He would obey the will of the LORD.

He would worship GOD.

He would believe in JESUS.

He would be guided by the HOLY SPIRIT.

His policies would be sound, just, and GOD-fearing.

Proverbs 8:13-16

King James Version

13 The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: 

pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, 

and the froward mouth, do I hate.

14 Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom:

 I am understanding; I have strength.

15 By me kings reign, and princes decree justice.

16 By me princes rule, and nobles, 

even all the judges of the earth.

Proverbs 14:26-27

King James Version

26 In the fear of the Lord is strong confidence: 

and his children shall have a place of refuge.

27 The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, 

to depart from the snares of death.

The believer would be turly wide awake.

He would know the world for what it is:

1 John 5:19

King James Version

19 And we know that we are of God, 

and the whole world lieth in wickedness.

And he would take measures that he is not sucked into it.

He would meditate upon GOD each day.

Psalm 119:97

King James Version

97 O how love I thy law! 

it is my meditation all the day.

Psalm 119:174

King James Version

174 I have longed for thy salvation, 

O Lord; 

and thy law is my delight.

Every decision, is sanctioned by GOD.

Every thought, word, or deed, obeys GOD's will.

If nations don't exhibit peace, we know that nations have followed the enemy.

But there will be peace.

According to GOD's plan.

For the RAPTURE will occur.

Where the faithful will meet JESUS up in the air.

After which, great hardship will come.

And you will want to have been part of the Rapture.

It's really all preparation now.
