You are being lied to!

Satan is a liar; he can never tell the truth. He, of course, will state a truth or Biblical principle but always out of context or with an interpretation that promotes pride, lusts, or ungodly desires. Jesus said, “Satan is the father of lies.” So how often have we been lied to?

Does the media lie—all the time. How about our government—they never will tell you the whole truth but hid the true facts. Is the medical profession reliable—not if you include the CDC. Where can one find the truth? It is not easy living in a world of lies and deception and greed.

The CDC has been completely wrong concerning the Covid-19 Virus. At the very least, they have not been upfront and straightforward with the American people. Time after time the CDC has been caught in a lie. Lies promote fear and fear drove Americans to believe in lies. Satan uses people, organizations, governments, and societal norms to promote his lies, and it is his lies that come to us in a variety of venues.

As I have written about in earlier articles, using common sense in fighting against viruses, living a healthy and active lifestyle, and the promotion of appropriate eating habits that naturally fight viruses would have saved thousands of lives. Instead, we believe in lies; lies that kill and destroy mankind. This virus will not be going away, and vaccines will only become partially successful. Do not depend on masks to keep you safe, most are not made to keep out viruses from your lungs.

As Satan lied to Jesus about tempting God so it is with so many lies that we find in our culture today. What is the truth? What is your motive? Who are you going to believe in?

Do not go the ‘way of pride’ that says, ‘you can do whatever and God will protect you’. This is a lie that Satan always uses against God’s people. How to fight against lies? It is time to avoid fear (use common sense), do not tempt God (God wants you to live a healthy lifestyle), and learn/know the tactics that Satan uses in this world to kill, steal, and destroy all of God’s creation (check out the Bible). It is indeed a time for Jesus and looking to Him alone for answers. He has more truth and common sense than anyone else in this world.

God is not there to give you what you want!

Much too often we feel that God is not listening, or He is not looking at what is taking place in our culture? But, the opposite is true. The Bible says God used to look the other way but after Christ’s death on the cross, God no longer gives man the option to go unnoticed nor live without consequences for his behavior. The wrath of the Lamb of God can be seen everywhere in America.

God is consistently and constantly monitoring and measuring our motives. This is one of the many jobs of the Holy Spirit. A good example of this job description is Acts 5:9 (NIV), the story of Ananias and Sapphira. Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.” Lying to God is never a good idea, especially for personal gain—how are your motives in talking/praying to God?

Too many Christians serve God for what they can get from God. They think God will never judge them; they believe that God is a ‘God of mercy and forgiveness’ only. Mathew 7:21-23 (NKJV) states, “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness’!”

Why are God’s kids thinking that they can do whatever and God will just forgive? God is a God of mercy when we are honest toward Him. We cannot think that God will look the other way and only give me kindness. Jesus is coming back—this is evident all around us, and He is not coming back to offer forgiveness but to offer judgment. As we accept His forgiveness, we must also accept His judgment—this is the Fear of God that is spoken about so often in the Bible and directs the actions of the Holy Spirit.

We must have the return of Jesus Christ, not tomorrow but always be looking for it today!

I Can No Long Keep Silent

My heart has been heavy. I often feel like mourning. God has been talking, getting me to listen—not to talk. But I can no longer keep silent, there is too much to say and so little time to say it all. You might not like what I will be saying in the next few articles. They come with no apology or reservation. The wrath of the Lamb is upon us and if you cannot see or hear it, you need to repent—not tomorrow but today!

Psalm Chapter 15 (NIV)—read this every day until the Holy Spirit says to stop!

Lord, who may dwell in your sacred tent?
Who may live on your holy mountain?

The one whose walk is blameless,
who does what is righteous,
who speaks the truth from their heart;
whose tongue utters no slander,
who does no wrong to a neighbor,
and casts no slur on others;
who despises a vile person
but honors those who fear the Lord;
who keeps an oath even when it hurts,
and does not change their mind;
who lends money to the poor without interest;
who does not accept a bribe against the innocent.

Whoever does these things
will never be shaken.

Have you been shaken lately by worldly events? Has your faith been challenged? Have you felt no motivation to pray? Have your requests to God gone unanswered?

The Holy Spirit is asking you, me, and our families to become a Psalm Chapter 15 Christian; not tomorrow but today. We must begin to respond to the moving of the Holy Spirit and repent with Godly sorrow. This is what Christ is saying to His people!

A Thoughtful Truth for the Week

If God granted you one wish, what would it be?

Mathew 4:7 KJV, “Jesus said unto him, ‘It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God’.”

If I had one request given freely by God, it would be simple that the Church would quit tempting the Lord our God. I believe it is the one sin that is least talked about in our churches.

A good example of tempting God has been the Body of Christ not treating their bodies well (i.e., with exercise, fresh air & sunlight, eating wholesome/fresh foods, taking vitamins/minerals, etc.); not avoiding harmful foods, living destructive lifestyles, and refusing to pay attention to what your body needs to fight infections and diseases. The Corvid-19 Virus took its toll on so many people who kept tempting God thinking that God would help them in time of need—this is a sin—the sin of tempting God. If it is in your power to do what is right, do not think that God will protect you when you chose harmful behavior. You should not do it!

A Thoughtful Truth for the Week

If Jesus would not call Himself ‘good’, where does that leave you & me?

Luke 18:19 NKJV, “So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God.”

Three men in the Bible had to come to grips with not considering themselves good, righteous, or significant—the Apostle Paul, Peter the disciple of Jesus, and Job. All three men had a face-to-face encounter with Jesus and after their encounters with ‘seeing Jesus’, they saw themselves as unworthy, un-honorable, and a complete/total sinner. They realized that there was no good in their lives nor could they do ‘the goodness’ that only God could do. They learned/realized that only God was good.

God is not silent; He is not looking the other way!

Much too often we feel that God is not listening, or He is not looking at what is taking place in our culture? But, the opposite is true. The Bible says God used to look the other way but after Christ’s death on the cross, God no longer gives man the option to go unnoticed nor live without consequences for his behavior.

God is indeed speaking often; I see Him working in the lives of His people and the nations of this world. In fact, I am indeed afraid that we will not be ready for what is next (i.e., what will come upon us) for people who are not considering the consequences of their decisions and actions. God reminded me today of the fourth horse (death) and his role upon this earth. Revelation chapter 6 verses 7-8 (KJV): “And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see. And, I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.”

So much has taken place in America this past year. God has allowed a new administration to take the lead in this nation. Why, because it is time for judgment. God has allowed prophetic words to fail, (Trump would not win a second term in office), why, God’s judgment. The fear of the Covid-19 virus destroyed people’s livelihood and because of poor decisions on the part of politicians and the CDC the virus killed individuals who should have never died; why, God’s judgment. (Nevertheless, judgment does not come without mercy.)

Winds from heaven are now blowing over this land, why, God’s judgment. I hear, these words from heaven, “Time is short; Christ is at hand;” why, God’s judgment. Creation (mother nature if you wish) is in turmoil; why, God’s judgment. And now, great trouble in Israel; why, God’s judgment. God is telling each one of us, “Get ready!”

Let me state again what I have been saying for the past couple of years. “California will not make it, nor will it recover from the hand of God’s judgment because it has promoted, enticed, and deceived this nation by its sin”. Furthermore, Washington DC will also not exist—I believe it will be gone within 40 years. Everything people have sought to solve their problems and to give them prosperity will soon be taken away. The four horsemen will accomplish God’s will, punishment, and purpose to place everything under Christ’s feet will come to pass sooner than you think.

There is only one thing to do! We must find repentance and stand upon the seashore of God’s presence in order to feel the waves of heaven washing over us.

The next few articles I will be writing will help you (all of us) to do just that—to find shelter in the time of Christ’s wrath. The whole world will fear the wrath Jesus Christ! It is here and it is now!

A Thoughtful Truth for the Week

To believe in Jesus has little to do with loving Him.

Jesus said even the devil believes in Jesus, but it is those “who keep my commandments” that love Me. It is time to work more on loving Jesus instead of solely trusting in your ‘believing in Him’. Our churches are too full of those who say they believe, but their heart and actions are far from the truth of Jesus Christ. Let’s love Jesus more and believe less—if there is such an option.

If you are looking to love Jesus more since you believe in Him, try supporting the educational program “Foundations of Freedom”. It is something you can do to demonstrate your love for Jesus and thereby become proactive by bringing Jesus into local schools, community groups, and civic organizations.

This program is Holy Spirit inspired, tested, and given ‘a stamp of approval’ by many litigation and legal organizations in America, and most importantly, it is free for all participants. All you must do is ‘get the Word out’ and support the implementation of this program in schools. So, in the 2021-22 school year let’s have this option for kids.

You can read about the program on the website address, www.foundationsoffreedom.org. So do something for Jesus and begin to impact America’s schools by sharing what God has done for America from its conception. It is time for the “Foundations of Freedom” to sweep through our schools and once again have ‘the Truth’ spoken in our school classrooms through the lives of Christian students.

A Message from Jesus Culture in California

“Having Joy and Expressing Gratitude”

Do you ever feel like your joy is under attack?

What do we do when we feel like our hope is struggling for survival? We must come together and acknowledge when things don’t feel okay.

Denial is not Jesus’ will for our lives.

Instead, let’s (1) Practice Gratitude:

Check out this verse- Romans 15:13, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.”

When we take steps towards daily gratitude, we invite the God of hope to fill us with peace.

Write down 3 positive things that happened this week and thank Him.

(2) Invite Community In.

This is really simple and powerful…

After we remember and celebrate what God is doing, reach out to someone that knows you.

It’s not rare for our team members to call each other and simply ask, “Can you remind me of who I am?”

Call or text someone close to you. Be honest with them- how are you feeling? What do you need? What can they do for you?

We get it, life is absolutely hard sometimes.

One thing we know to be true is that He will always pull beauty from the ashes.

There is joy set before us. Hang in there. He’s not done. You got this!

From Jesus Culture/Sacramento, CA (4/27/21)

A Personal Testimony

My heart and spirit was wounded by what has recently taken place in America, and then add to it what God has shown me what will take place shortly. America is in such a difficult place with just one option being offered by God, His Son Jesus will come back.

As my heart mourns, I feel the ‘waves of heaven’ moving over my life and across America. Waves of repentance and hope; waves of rejoicing and the wrath of God. In a few short years change initiated by God will overtake every American, and therefore, I fear for each and every life. Will the Church be ready? Will America accept what the will of God is for our nation? God wants me to offer hope and truth in my writings to encourage Christians and bring the ‘fear of God’ into our decision-making processes.

I have been crying a lot—for hours, days, and weeks. Crying out to God for humility, sanctification, purity, and the increase of love in my life. God keeps telling me to love not this world or things in this world but to love Him with my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Each one of these aspects of my body is different and all require different responses. I cannot say because I love God with my heart that I love Him with my mind or soul or strength. I must give all four aspects of my body to Christ and love Him individually with each aspect of who I am—heart, mind, soul, and strength. God wants all of me to love Him and to love nothing else.

Why, because what will shortly take place in my state, California; my nation, USA; and the world. The wrath of God’s Son will be great and complete, and no one will escape His judgment. Therefore, I am crying, and this is how the waves of heaven have been affecting my life. There is no escape for me; He has captured me through His love!

We must allow God to do whatever He desires in our lives and to bring about “Jesus in us, the hope of glory” so God receives all the glory, honor, and praise due to His great name.
