6th Trump

The bottom line is that the 6th Trump = Satan on Earth and all the ramifications of that are realized in this flesh age. There are two parts to the 6th Trump the first part being the Political Beast and Satan and his Angels running things from "behind" the one world system Revelation 13:3-5 (the 42 months is that 3 1/2 years that were shortened in Revelation 9:5). Side note, prophecies in months or lunar are prophesies regarding Satan. The second part being the Religious Beast and Satan here on earth pretending to be Christ...bringing in "peace" to the fallen one world system and the resulting mess.

The time period for all of this was 7 years in Daniel, then shortened to 5 months in Revelation. The time was shortened for the elect's sake so even they would not succumb to Satan's deceit Mark 13:22. As stipulated in Daniel 9:27 the two periods are of equal length; thereby making the 5 month period, 2 1/2 months of the Political Beast followed by the Deadly Wound to that Beast and the coming in of Antichrist for 2 1/2 months (Religious Beast).

The Political Beast is spoken of in Revelation and is simply the earthly kings/one world system that is necessary and something the world leaders have been working towards for decades with their world peace stance. The One World System falls to pieces and receives an ultimate wound breaking it apart ... enter Satan and his miracles and majesty to bring peace to the whole earth as the Antipas, or Antifather (aka, Antichrist). That one that was against; that one that claims to be Father, but is not the one true Father. Daniel 7:8 is that religious beast that will look like the Lamb slain. He will speak, look, and act like Christ as he is representing himself as Christ. He will bring supernatural powers and be able to perform miracles (of sorts) as he is a supernatural being Revelation 13:12-13. The oblation was taken away in Daniel 9:27 because the masses following him as Christ no longer need for Holy Communion as they believe Christ is here on earth with them. This is the abomination of desolation spoken of in Matthew 24:15.

Note that the 10 earthly kings are separate from the 10 spiritual kings that Satan brings with him. The first 2 1/2 months of the Political Beast contains those 10 earthly kings of the one world system to which a deadly wound occurs. The second 2 1/2 months contains those 10 spiritual kings that Satan brings with him saving the broken one world system and bringing peace, peace, peace to the earth and to those who believe he is Christ. The earthly kings are those spoken of in Daniel 7:17 & Revelation 18:13. The spiritual kings are those spoken of in Daniel 7:7; 24 & Revelation 17:12 and that one hour referenced is the 5 month period. When Satan is cast out in Revelation 12:12 there was silence in heaven for 1/2 hour as stated in Revelation 8:1 (don't confuse the seals with the trumps as they are different and out of order). That 1/2 hour is the second 2 1/2 month period of time while he is physically on this earth as Antichrist.

Revelation 12:7-9 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Daniel 11:21 And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

The Mark of the Beast is 666 which is simply the 6th seal, 6th trump, 6th vial. Satan is that Beast and will come in peaceably Revelation 13:18. That 2 1/2 month period Antichrist is here will not be a tribulation to those worshiping him as they will be in peace and comfort. The mark in their hand and forehead spoken of in Revelation 13:16 is that of their actions (worshiping Satan/Antichrist) and their thoughts that he is Christ (resulting in their actions to worship him). Satan's Plan: Antichrist & Two Tribulations  Contrast that to Christ who is not coming in peace but bringing a sword as stated in Matthew 10:34.

During the time of Satan on earth as Antichrist, those who are not following him will be delivered up to him (death...not of the flesh but to Satan as death). Those "Taken" ... Do Not Be Deceived / 
Delivered Up & The Unforgiveable Sin  Do not fret about this for two reasons: 1) We are promised to not have to endure this beyond 10 days Revelation 2:10. 2) The Holy Spirit will speak for you as God's purpose and testimony Luke 21:12-15.

Generations of the Bible

There are three different generations (of time) mentioned in the Bible:

The 40 year generation
The 70 year generation
The 120 year generation

It is worth noting not only how these generational time periods were utilized at the time written, but also how we can use them today to discern signs/seasons/prophesy of the Bible for what's to come.

Matthew 25:13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

We will indeed not know the exact time of the 6th Trump prior to its occurrence, but we can certainly watch for the signs told to us in Scripture and be prepared as it begins to unfold.

Mark 13:35-37 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the  master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: Lest coming suddenly he finds you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch."

More on Seals / Trumps / Vials

All Seals were issued before the 1st Trumpet was granted as stated in Revelation 8:1-13 & Revelation 7:3 Basics Regarding Seals / Trumps / Vials.

Seals are knowledge / a thing of learning / and do not appear in chronological order
Trumps are action and they do appear in chronological order
Vials  are the wrath of God and do not go on like the others do for extended periods of time / they are poured out time of action at the appointed event

The Seals must be "sealed" in the minds of those with eyes to see and ears to hear before the end. The Trumps are orders to be executed. The Vials will all be poured out in the last two Trumps (6th & 7th) and primarily in the last, 7th Trump. Revelation 15 & 16 The first Vial is poured out after the Beast has been worshiped in the 6th Trump. 

The 5th Trump is that time of testimony of the Lord and where we find ourselves today. The 6th Trump is the when Satan comes to this earth in place of Christ and lasts 5 months. The 7th Trump is when Christ comes and we are all changed to our Spiritual bodies and lasts but a brief moment as we enter into the Millennium for 1,000 years prior to Judgment Day and the 3rd earth/heaven age of eternity. The Millennium  /  Judgment Day  /  3rd Earth Age

Seals are what's going to happen so study God's Word to know what to expect
Trumps are what's about to happen and God's Word tells us of the signs to watch for to know when they are happening
Vials are what is happening as they are the time of action

Satan's Plan: Altering the Seedline...Enmity Between Seeds

In follow up to the earlier post Satan's Plan: Altering the Seedline...The Garden of Eden below is further evidence that the two seed lines being discussed were that of Adam (Abel) & Satan (Cain).

Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her Seed; It shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise His heel."

Notice that "thy" seed in God speaking to Satan is in lower case and that the Christ line seed is in upper case referring to Christ himself coming through her offspring. Further prophesying that Satan will bruise Christ's heel (on the cross), but that Christ will bruise Satan's head (in the end).

Hebrews 2:14-16 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily He took not on Him the nature of angels; but He took on Him the seed of Abraham.

Christ came in the flesh, born of woman (Mary) through the seed of Abraham (Adam/Eve). He withstood Satan's temptation to falter His purpose and by dying on the Cross for us and resurrecting, He defeated death which is to say Satan. Following Satan's lies and deceptions is to risk dying a spiritual death (death of your soul at Judgment). Satan is Death by name and practice. (Names Of Satan & How Satan Twists God's Word)

Helpful Study Resource

Below is a Book List from The Shepherd's Chapel which I have found to be very resourceful in my deeper studies and understanding of God's Word. The Capt books in particular have been extremely helpful in my understanding of the Tribes of Israel as well as their captivities and pre and post captivity travels. While I do not believe Capt has everything 100%, he comes pretty close and is a useful guide as you dig deeper on your own. I have no direct affiliation with The Shepherd's Chapel or with E. Raymond Capt. I have however found them both to be extraordinarily founded in God's Word and Divinely directed.

Appendix 86

Text from Appendix 86 of the Bullinger KJV Companion Bible. It would be best and easiest to reference from the actual Companion Bible, but in absence of owning one yourself, you can look at the below and also from http://www.levendwater.org/companion/frameset.htm?The%20Companion%20Bible%20-%20Bullinger/index.htm&inhoudsopgave_companion.htm

Appendix 50

Text and Charts excerpts from Appendix 50 of the Bullinger KJV Companion Bible. It would be best and easiest to reference from the actual Companion Bible, but in absence of owning one yourself, you can look at the below and also from http://www.levendwater.org/companion/frameset.htm?The%20Companion%20Bible%20-%20Bullinger/index.htm&inhoudsopgave_companion.htm

The remainder of Appendix 50 contains timelines, periods, and additional notes and is too voluminous to insert here, but well worth reviewing! Also worth looking into are the many other genealogies, chronologies, histories, timelines from other Appendices including those of 29, 57, 58, 77, 83, 109, 179, 180.

Differences In Time

"Lo-Ammi" Periods are the periods of time referenced in the Bible when God turned away from His people due to their disobedience and considered them "Not My People".

Anno Dei Reckoning means "in God's year" and includes all of the periods that were not Lo-Ammi Periods (but does not include any of those Lo-Ammi years).

Anno Mundi Reckoning means "in the year of the world" and does not take into consideration the fact that God's given dates/years do not include certain periods of time (so, they would include all Lo-Ammi Periods).

Cardinal Numbers = How Many

Ordinal Numbers = Position

This should help in the posts to follow regarding the chronology of the Bible.

Names of Satan

Some Scriptures below with the many names of Satan highlighted in red:

Revelation 20:1-2 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years.

Satan will be bound for a 1,000 years in the Millennium and then loosed one final time right before Judgment Day.

Revelation 6:8 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.

Satan is Death and he will come in the 6th trump on a pale horse which is to say a cheap imitation of that white horse Christ will come in on in the 7th trump. When it speaks of those being delivered up to death in the 6th trump, they are not being delivered up to die but being delivered up to Satan who will be portraying himself as Christ in his role as Antichrist (which is to say instead of Christ) [more on all of this in upcoming posts].

I John 2:18; 22 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that is the last time.

Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

In verse 18 the many antichrists that are with us currently are those false prophets and preachers and Kenites.  In verse 22 the antichrist is that one to come pretending to be Christ in the 6th trump and is Satan. John 5:43

Isaiah 14:12-19 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou has said in thine heart, 'I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the Most High.' Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, 'Is this the  man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?' All the kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. But thou art cast out of thy grave like an abominable branch, and as the raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet.

Satan was that morning star, that glorious cherub that protected the very Mercy Seat prior to him deciding he could replace God. His purpose now is to deceive God's children, His "stars".

Ezekiel 28:2; 13-16 "Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, 'Thus saith the Lord God; 'Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, 'I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas;' yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:

Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. Thou art the annointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou was perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire.

Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman "Yea, hath God said, 'Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?"

Serpent here is nachash (#5172) which is an enchanter and is that Glistening One, the Devil, which is to say Satan. Already discussed in The Tree of Life & The Tree of Death &  Ets vs Atseh Satan was that Tree of Death & Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil from The Garden of Eden.

Ezekiel 31:3-11 Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs. The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field. Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth. All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations. Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters. The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chestnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty. I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him. Therefore thus saith the Lord God; 'Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height; I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the might one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness.

The Assyrian here in the Hebrew is 'Ashshur (#804) and should be read te'ashshur (#8391) meaning box cedar meaning Satan. As you can see in both Ezekiel 28 & 31, Satan was created by God as beautiful and powerful. Satan is not this hideous creature to view as he is so often portrayed. He is stunning both in appearance and abilities. He is that very Desolator spoken of in Daniel 9:27 & Mark 13:14 standing where he ought not (pretending to be Christ). He is also that tempter from Matthew 4:3 that tempted Christ.

II Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.

Revelation 9:11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. 

Abaddon in Hebrew is the destruction. Here personified in the Greek as the Destroyer.

John 17:12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Thy name: those that Thou gavest Me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

How Satan Twists God's Word

Deuteronomy 8:3 And He humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that He might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Lord doth man live.

Compare God's Word and meaning of this verse in Deuteronomy to that of Satan's tempting in Matthew 4:3 ... Satan was tempting Christ which is to say testing Him by subtly twisting God's Word. Jesus here was fasting and Satan was suggesting that Jesus need only to turn "these" stones to bread in order to have food and end His fast. Satan will at every turn also test you by offering up easy and worldly deterrents away from following Christ and God's Word. (Daily Bread)

Psalms 91:11-12 For He shall give His angels charge over thee, To keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Compare God's Word and meaning of this verse in Psalms to that of Satan's tempting in Matthew 4:6 ... If we are following Christ and God's instruction, He will keep us safe but not to the point of us testing that safety. It is "lest thou dash" not if thou go about trying to dash thy foot will He save/protect us. Satan's suggestion to Christ that He prove He is Christ and that God's Word is accurate by Him casting Himself from a high place was Satan's twisting Scriptures yet again.

Deuteronomy 6:16 Ye shall not tempt the Lord your God, as ye tempted Him in Massah.

Compare this verse in Deuteronomy to Jesus' reiteration of just that to Satan in Matthew 4:7

Matthew 4:1-11 & Luke 4:1-13 are examples of how Satan twists God's Word and tempt us away from God. He is subtle and so confident in his ways to even do it to Christ Himself. The subtlety is that Satan doesn't out right change all of God's Word.  He just changes a few bits here in there that if you are not careful and founded in God's Word will lead you astray.

The Differences In The Four Gospels

The Inter-Relation of the Four Gospels simply is:

MATTHEW is the Lord presented as Jehovah's KING
MARK is the Lord presented as Jehovah's SERVANT
LUKE is the Lord presented as Jehovah's MAN
JOHN is the Lord presented as JEHOVAH HIMSELF

Daily Devotion

In addition to the in depth Bible study, I like to take a period of time each year to just read through the Bible as a book. I do this for a few reasons: 1) Every time I've read through the Bible in this way, I've gleamed new insight. 2) Every time I've read through the Bible, it further cements what I know and keeps me sharp to where passages are located, how they're tied together, and the history of it all including genealogies. 3) Further, it's a sure fire way to dedicate time to God daily which makes all the difference in the world!!! Personally, I like to start my day in Scripture as it really makes my day grounded and happy!

My approach if you'd like to join me this go around is to read 5 chapters each day from the Bullinger KJV Companion Bible. If we begin tomorrow that will give us a day off each week should we need it as well as busy holidays, and still complete the Bible from Genesis to Revelation by year end. I also like to read the accompanying Appendices each time as they are such a wealth of information! 

Love God More & Revere Not Fear Him

To love God more is to not put idols before Him. Anything that you put before God is an idol. In other words, the thoughts and/or daily activities that take up the majority of your time leaving none or little for God, then those have become idols. Giving time to God in study or work should be a priority in your day/life. Love God more than the world/self/others and an abundance of love will be left for everything else in/from that Love of God.

Matthew 10:37 He that loveth father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.

God does not intend for you to not love fully those in your family, nor does He intend for you to not have an abundance of time in your day for your daily tasks. He simply wants you to love Him more than anything else by not putting anything as an idol before Him.

I John 5:21 Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

Ezekiel 14:3-5 "Son of man, these men have set up their idols in their heart, and put the stumblingblock of their iniquity before their face: should I be enquired of at all by them? Therefore speak unto them, and say unto them, 'Thus saith the Lord God; 'Every man of the house of Israel that setteth up his idols in his heart, and putteth the stumblingblock of his iniquity before his face, and cometh to the prophet; I the Lord will answer him that cometh according to the multitude of his idols; That I may take the house of Israel in their own heart, because they are all estranged from Me through their idols.''

Deuteronomy 10:12 And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul,

In places where "fear" is utilized in reference to God it is usually means "revere" not fear.  In this verse "fear" is the Hebrew word yare (#3372) which can mean fear or revere. To love God is to revere Him and His Word. Not to love or follow God and yes, there will be at some point fear. Make  no mistake, God wants our love and reverence. 

Sins Of The Father...

Exodus 20:5-6  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; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love Me, and keep My commandments.

In these verses:  “hate me” means to love Him less; “unto the third and fourth generation” means to those that continue the sin….Just as with Gentiles before Christ or Kenites or anyone or any generation who sins, as soon as they repent and mean it and move forward not in sin, all is well….it’s for those and generations that continue in the sin for which He is referring. Deuteronomy 24:16

II Kings 14:6  But the children of the murderers he slew not: according unto that which is written in the book of the law of Moses, wherein the Lord commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, nor the children be put to death for the fathers; but every man shall be put to death for his own sin.”

No one pays for the sin of any one else! No child pays for the sins of their father. No generation pays for the sins of the previous generation. We pay only for our unrepented sins. If generation after generation continue in sin, they will pay for those sins....their very own unrepented sins. Following traditions that are sinful is not a wise course of action or any excuse for not doing better. Ezekiel 18:30-32

II Chronicles 25:4  But he slew not their children, but did as it is written in the law in the book of Moses, where the Lord commanded, saying, “The fathers shall not die for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every  man shall die for his own sin.”

Jeremiah 31:29-30  In those days they shall say no more, ‘The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’  But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.

Ezekiel 18:20  The soul that sinneth, it shall die.  The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

The Gospel Armour

Ephesians 6:10-20 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints; And for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Psalms 91:4 He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Further: Psalms 25 & Psalms 27:11-14

Don't Blame God For Your Strife

I Peter 2:20 For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

God corrects by allowing turmoil to touch you if you are on the wrong path, but He doesn't cause you to have turmoil ... kiss the paddle and do better just as a child being corrected by a parent ... God wants you the best you can be! Deuteronomy 8:5 & Proverbs 3:11-13

Jeremiah 23:33-40 And when this people, or the prophet, or a priest, shall ask thee, saying, What is the burden of the Lord? thou shalt then say unto them, What burden? I will even forsake you, saith the Lord.  And as for the prophet, and the priest, and the people, that shall say, The burden of the Lord, I will even punish that man and his house. Thus shall ye say every one to his neighbour, and every one to his brother, What hath the Lord answered? and, What hath the Lord spoken? And the burden of the Lord, shall ye mention no more: for every man's word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God. Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the Lord answered thee? and, What hath the Lord spoken? But since ye say, The burden of the Lord; therefore thus saith the Lord; Because ye say this word, The burden of the Lord, and I have sent unto you, saying Ye shall not say, The burden of the Lord; Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and  your fathers, and cast  you out of my presence: And I will bring an everlasting reproach upon you, and a perpetual shame, which shall not be forgotten.

James 1:12-18  Temptation is not of God. God cannot be tempted of evil, nor tempt you of evil. You most definitely should not say, "the burden of the Lord" anything. He will also not allow you to be tempted by Satan above what you can handle. I Corinthians 10:13

II Corinthians 1:3-4 Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.

Remind God of His Promises

Isaiah 43:25-26 I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.

Remind God of His promises which documents that you studied His Word to know of those very promises He so wants you to have! II Timothy 2:15

Daily Bread

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Jesus resurrected & then ascended to Heaven until He returns in the 7th Trump, but God left with us the Holy Spirit to assist when we are willing to hear Him.  God will always lead, guide, and direct you provided you both ask, listen, and follow.

The Word of God is your daily bread akin to the daily manna given to the Israelites wandering in the wilderness that kept them satisfied as long as it was consumed daily.  The Bible is that very scroll to be digested daily.

Hebrews 2:1 Therefore we ought to give the more ernest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.

Just like the manna from Heaven could not be stored and eaten another day, the knowledge gained from the Word of God withers if not consumed daily.

Ecclesiastes 2:12 Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.

The sacrifice of fools is futile because they are not interested in what's going to be said anyway.  They are putting on a show for reputation in the community and God considers that evil.  Make sure when you go to the House of God that you are going ready to hear God's Word and not man's word.  Traditions of man make void the Word of God.

Bethel v Bethaven

Bethel is a House of God.  Bethaven is a house of vanity, of nothingness.  Choose the House of Worship that Worships God and follows His Word and not that of the traditions of men.

II John 1:10-11 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Luke 16:15 And He said unto them, "Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God. 

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Do Not Add & Do Not Take Away

Whether in ignorance or on purpose, it is not wise to add to or take away from God's Word.  All the tinkering with the translations does this.  Preaching vain lessons from man's mind and not God's Word does this too.  Check out everything for yourself and only study with those who check out!

Deuteronomy 4:2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.
