Put your trust in God.


       Throughout the world millions of people have either developed or are in the process of developing a right relationship with our creator. Through the teachings of Christ Jesus of Nazareth, and by revelation of who He is and why He was sent these people have come to learn the truth of where their help comes from and who their supply is, the almighty God, I am. Many times people come to God out of necessity, borne out of a hunger for a better life and as they do and begin to draw neigh to Him, He draws neigh unto them, as He promises. In this process His kingdom is established, revealed and moved forward here on earth. As he promises He will never leave us nor forsake us. In the US this is not so prevalent as it is elsewhere. Many people have no desire to truly seek a right relationship with God. Most are happy wading in the pleasures of the flesh, seldom concerned about the world around them that extends past their own sphere of interaction. These people simply do not hunger after the things of God and his care. This is because, in part, their capacity for hunger has been purchased by the enemy with mammon. 


      The enemy has found a way to counterfeit God’s provision. Who is in need of a heavenly supply when Government social welfare programs promise so much. How many times have men added to these programs selling themselves as a savior to the impoverished for votes into some office? The current Government shut down has revealed to me the enormity of control men have over a population that has come to worship them and rely on them for their sustenance. It is as ridiculous to believe that you can elect or appoint a savior as it is to believe you can believe in and submit to a deity you yourself carved from a stick. There is only one all mighty God, one Christ Jesus and one Holy Ghost, one Lord and savior and he cannot be your savior unless you make him your Lord, you cannot call him Lord unless you are willing to obey Him. Could God be getting ready to move to remove an obstacle that prevents many from seeking Him? It is going to interesting to find out.

       Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.  For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited.  Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is.  For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit.
Jer 17:5-8 (KJV)
