And God Shall Hear The Crys Of The Righteous!

Please saints watch this entire video when you have the time, David Wilkerson is a man of God.

For any who would be curious what Bro Wilkerson would have to say about what Goes on at the Lakeland like revivals, here is your answer.

The Ark Of The Covenant, Answers In The Word!


I am sure of only these things in The Word Stephen, thanks for your comment by the way, (on "The Ark Of The Covenant" blog below) you raised a point worth a response.
Only the priestly tribe of Levi, were to be the bearers and tenders to the ark of the covenant, here are a couple of examples of scripture in regards to this subject.
Also, yes your correct, there was the example of Uzza trying to steady the ark when he thought it was going to fall, and being struck dead by God, I think that is the example your referring to. So I to would question anyone claiming to have discovered and or seen inside the ark of the covenant.
I wasn't to sure about the demeanor of the two Rabbis, their eyes didn't seem to make contact with the person asking the questions on the video.
This blog is designed to cause people to think, and to question and to dig into The Word, the only thing that we can trust by the way, in this day and hour!

1 Chronicles 13:9-10
And when they came unto the threshingfloor of Chidon, Uzza put forth his hand to hold the ark; for the oxen stumbled.
10And the anger of the LORD was kindled against Uzza, and he smote him, because he put his hand to the ark: and there he died before God.

Leviticus 10:1-2
And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before the LORD, which he commanded them not.
2And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.

Leviticus 16:1-2
And the LORD spake unto Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the LORD, and died;
2And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the holy place within the veil before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.

Deuteronomy 31:24-27
And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,
25That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying,
26Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.
27For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death?

In 1 Samuel 1:5-12 you can read how God cursed and destroyed some of the Philistines when the ark of the covenant was in their hands.

A prophecy in regards to the end times for Israel is as follows:
Jeremiah 3:14-19
Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion:
15And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
16And it shall come to pass, when ye be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the LORD, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of the LORD: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more.
17At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the LORD; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the LORD, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the imagination of their evil heart.
18In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.
19But I said, How shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? and I said, Thou shalt call me, My father; and shalt not turn away from me.

Read Hebrews 9….all is fulfilled in Christ

Revelation 11:19 Tells us where we the children of God will for certain, next see the ark of the covenant:

And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

I hope that others will also give input, let us reason together Amen, and let God be true and every man a liar...Amen...

This will likely be part one of a two part blog...

Can We Trust God To Keep Us?

1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

As this baby trusts his father to toss him in the air and catch him safely, so we as children of God ought to trust our Heavenly Father to ever keep us no matter what befalls us.
He has promised to never forsake us, and to be with us even unto the end of the world.

I recommend you read this blog by Pastor Michael Boldea. /mikeboldea.blogspot.com/2008/07/sanctuary.html

I read it and was spurred in my Spirit to write the following response:

Finally a voice of sense and Godly reason amongst the many babbling brooks. (To clarify slightly, this is referring to the many voices that are saying, with the coming tribulation, run here, move there, do this do that.)

Yes my dear young brother, we must all listen to the voice of God, and not follow another who says go here, go there, we must listen to the voice of the Spirit of God.

He is able to keep in the midst of the fiery furnace, but you'd think some don't believe that.

To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord, but you'd think some don't believe nor desire that either.

You'd think that this earthly life was to be preferred over death, and to be amongst men a greater thing than to be in the presence of the Lord.

You'd think that some loved this life far more than they desire to dwell in the very presence of the Lord.

Death is not the worst thing to happen for the Child of God, it is merely a transition to the eternal.

Death for the Child of God is not something to be dreaded and feared but to be faced with anxious anticipation and faith, and trust in the one who birthed us and gave us life, physical and then spiritual. (not advocating suicide here by the way, for those who would mock).

The desire of the disciples was to be with Christ in Heaven, why do those who claim to be followers of Christ today, shrink from this and desire to cling to this world.

2 Corinthians 5:1-10
For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

2For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:

3If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.

4For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

5Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

6Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:

7(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

8We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

9Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.

10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

I would ask, where is our confidence children of God?

We must all be willing to be absent from our bodies and to be present with the Lord, we must be willing as Abraham was of sacrificing Isaac..willing.. and we must desire to be pleasing to the Lord.

We must desire to be with the Lord, this is our blessed hope children of God, as He died and rose from the dead, so shall we in Him at His return.

We must be willing to die, die to this world and everything in it and to ourselves,our flesh.

We must be willing to be crucified in our flesh, our spirit and if necessary our very bodies. Faith, and courage, and trust in God is what we need.....

Revelation 12:11
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Saints, do you love the Lord, more than you love your fleshly life?

Your 100% correct my dear young brother, if we are in Christ, we are safe where ever we are. He is able to keep us and present us spotless before His throne.

Sorry for the long post, but you can sense my years of frustration at this subject, which many choose to ignore, in favor of this present life. If this is all we had to look forward to we would be most miserable....Amen
God Bless
Helen B.

P.S. Could it be Saints of God, that it is fear that motivates those who tell us to search out a safe place of refuge? Do we not know that perfect love casts out all fear? Do we not know that the only safe place is in Christ?

Pastors, Fellow Americans, Where Are Your Heads Today?

Are the various natural disasters and the looming financial disasters speaking anything to your hearts fellow citizens?

Which Bank Is Next? Lines for cash in california today
These are some of the headlines on http://www.drudgereport.com/ today.

I wonder how many are paying attention to the state of our once great nation. Pastors, are you telling your people that America is under God's judgment?

We have been hit by one weather related disaster after another the last several years. The major news networks and polititians, blame these things on "global warming" or on "mother nature", both of which are inventions of men's minds.

Our crops have been hit hard, affecting our food supply.
Strange events have been occuring in nature, in the insect and animal world.
I just wonder how long is it going to be, before people acknowledge that just maybe we are not pleasing to The Most High God. How long are we going to be in denial of His Word? Perhaps we had better examine His Word and see why He is allowing these various things to befall us.

Folks God made this nation, He gave us all the ablility to become prosperous, and gave us our intillegence that we may invent new things to make our lives more enjoyable, that we may prosper as our souls prospered in Him. That we may be used for His glory and spread the gospel of salvation to all the world, starting with the Jews. God has blessed America as she has sought to honor and obey Him, and as she has blessed Israel.

What has happened to us in our prosperity, saint and sinner alike? We have forgotten God, we have become great in our own eyes, we have credited ourselves with our Greatness. We have become puffed up and to eager to please all the world rather than God. We want to keep the enemies of Israel and the enemies of God happy, so that we may prosper. We have forgotten the source of our prosperity.

It is He who gives us the power to be great. It is He who raises up leaders and puts them in power, and it is He who takes them down. God is fixing to give America the leader she deserves, one who will sell her up the river as much of America has forsaken Israel and sold her up the river to her enemies.

I see so many people just going about business as usual living in denial with their heads firmly planted in the sand. Some think they can change things, some think nothing will ever happen to the greatest nation on earth. Some say well other nations are just as wicked if not more so than America. Yes that is correct, sin is a world wide fact, the difference with America however is that she has had more exposure to the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ than any other nation on earth, and has turned her back to that truth. Her government has chosen to deny the Word of God, and says: We can kill our children, God doesn't see, We can become like sodom and gomorrah, God doesn't see, We can make Israel divide her land, God doesn't see.

Church it is past time to mourn and repent in sack cloth and ashes. Church world wide, you have slept while millions of your fellow citizens made in the very image of God have been masacred, and you have kept on singing your hyms and turning your backs. Church world wide, for the most part, you have kept silent while homosexuals rule in some of your churches, and some flaunt themsleves in your streets with their debauched parades. You have not sought to turn people from their sin, rather you have incorporated it into your churches. Church world wide, for the most part you have remained silent while Israel has been forced into so called peace treaties and forced into evacuating her citizens from their God given right to their land.

Church world wide, many of you have claimed to take Israels place before God, you are in error, and God will yet show you how much He loves Israel and you will be ashamed.

America, I fear that God has turned us over as a nation, because God said He would turn over those who did not receive the love of the truth that they may believe a lie and be damned, and the truth says that He will turn into hell the nations that forget Him. God said not to divide His land, and His land is Israel.

It sure seems like many are getting dumber by the hour, and blind as bats to what is going on in the world, and in America, and why it is going on. It seems that the church and the world are obvlious, and in denial to the "Israel" factor.

I challenge you saints to do some research into the times that our government has caused Israel's government to displace its citizens from settlements and the coresponding disasters that have occured in America.

As A Mighty Wind From The North He Shall Come

The following is a word the Lord laid on my heart this morning:

"As a mighty wind from the north He shall come, He shall tear down your idols, He shall rip through your security, He shall shake your foundations, Terror shall reign in your midst.
Enough He shall say, it is done He shall say.

As you have forsaken Me so shall I forsake you in the day of trouble.
You have made mammon your God, and it shall destroy you. All your greatness shall perish, never to be seen again.

You have looked to the arm of man to save you, and turned your back to me. You consider me impotent, unable to save, therefore this to shall be your downfall you who name yourselves after me.

I am neither impotent nor unable to save to the uttermost, you shall see and weep."
