Yesu Mulungi...is
a Luganda African Phrase Meaning 'Jesus is Good', a Phrase
used By Christians
in Uganda when going through difficult times...it is used in
Praise and Thankfulness to God that He is Faithful and Good and will see
us through all our hard times.
“Jesus
Christ
will scrutinize ALL that we are and do
with His Holy and Unfailing
Word, Yes, with His eyes gazing
through us with Flaming Lights of Fire to Purify; ALL that which is not from Him
in us will die and with pain we must endure the sufferings, which is a very good
thing for us...for
we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God...”

Jesus
Christ Cares...
Romans 8:28-39
(28) And we know that all things work together for good
to them that love God, to them who are the called according
to his purpose.
(29) For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to
be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the
firstborn among many brethren.
(30) Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called:
and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he
justified, them he also glorified.
(31) What shall we then say to these things? If God be for
us, who can be against us?
(32) He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up
for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us
all things?
(33) Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect?
It is God that justifieth.
(34) Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea
rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand
of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
(35) Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall
tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or
nakedness, or peril, or sword?
(36) As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the
day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
(37) Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors
through him that loved us.
(38) For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor
angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present,
nor things to come,
(39) Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be
able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ
Jesus our Lord.
Trust and rest in Jesus Christ... Fix your eyes on Him
regardless of what you go through... We don't have the answers
to all the reasons for the events we go through but we are
called to Trust in The Lord and have Faith in Him... Don't
listen to the fear mongers, we shall see many of them...
Let
The Lord lead and guide you, keep to God's Word of Truth and
Sound Doctrine... The Lord make His light shine upon you and
through you even in these dark times... The Lord is working and
will work through His Church and Saints even in these
troublesome time...
The
Lord will provide for your NEED and protect you...though
sometimes He will allow you to endure and persevere
through pain and hardships for your own good...
Don't listen to the naysayer, the doubter, and the hopeless who
only speak about giants in the land, and how bad things will
get, and how you are just a 'grasshopper' before the
giants of our day... To such folks the Church of Jesus Christ is
"none existent" and "useless" in the midst of global turmoil...
You
are called to be a witness of Jesus Christ and gladly do so both
in word and deed with all humility remembering that we have all
sinned and fallen short of The Glory of God and it is only by
grace that we are saved, and no one can boast...
Remember the poor and those who are without, reach out and
minister to as many as The Lord enables you...don't forget
to minister to your family too...with all humility and grace...
I
will tell you the Truth, fear not all those negative so-called
"End Time Bible Prophecy" Teachers...who are not but are simply
fear mongers and some even are haters and liars...THE WORLD
WILL NOT END IN 2009... Jesus Christ will still be Lord of
ALL...seek His will to obey Him and please Him always...
Have
some REST and PEACE in CHRIST JESUS, and a blessed 2009, Amen!
In Christ

Houses of God Turn to Chapter 11 in Book of Bankruptcy
Dec 24 2008
Wall Street Journal
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122999261138328613.html
Strapped
Churches Can't Pay the Mortgage After Borrowing Binge; St. Andrew at
Auction
EASTON, Md. -- The auctioneer told the small crowd huddled outside
the Talbot County Courthouse that the property would be sold "as is"
-- rectory, bell tower, oak pews and rose-tinted stained glass
windows included.
"Who gives $700,000, 700, 700?" he called out. One man, a
representative for a local bank, raised his finger. The auctioneer
tried in vain to nudge the price up. "Sold!" he cried. St. Andrew
Anglican Church had just been bought by the bank that had started
foreclosure proceedings against it.
"It's probably good for my soul to be taken down a notch," said the
Right Rev. Joel Marcus Johnson, the rector of St. Andrew, after the
auction.
During this holiday season of hard times, not even houses of God
have been spared. Some lenders believe more churches than ever have
fallen behind on loans or defaulted this year. Some churches, and at
least one company that specialized in church lending, have filed for
bankruptcy. Church giving is down as much as 15% in some places,
pastors and lenders report.
The financial problems are crimping a church building boom that
began in the 1990s, when megachurches multiplied, turning many
houses of worship into suburban social centers complete with
bookstores, gyms and coffee bars. Lenders say mortgage applications
are down, while some commercial lenders no longer see churches as a
safe investment.
Church
Foreclosures
"We are seeing more stress in churches than we have in modern
history," says Mark G. Holbrook, president and chief executive of
the Evangelical Christian Credit Union of Brea, Calif., which
specializes in lending to churches. The credit union has moved to
foreclose on seven of its 2,000 member churches this year, and Mr.
Holbrook says he expects to take similar action against two more
next year. Before now, it had foreclosed on only two churches in its
45-year history.
Church Mortgage & Loan Corp. of Maitland, Fla., another church
lender, foreclosed on 10 church properties in the past couple of
years. Unable to sell any of them, the company didn't have the funds
to pay more than 400 bondholders the estimated $18 million it owes,
says company lawyer Elizabeth Green. Church Mortgage filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in March.
Strongtower Financial of Fresno, Calif., says two of its 300
evangelical church borrowers are in default, compared with only one
in the previous 15 years.
Dozens more churches are listed as delinquent on their loans,
according to a search of county court records nationwide.
Churches were long considered good credit risks, lenders say. Weekly
collections tend to be steady, even during recessions, and churches
feel a moral tug to pay debts. Most of the nation's 335,000 churches
carry little or no mortgage debt, and are based in buildings that
were paid off long ago.
But some churches, especially those not affiliated with major
denominations, borrowed briskly to build or expand in recent years.
Spending on construction of houses of worship rose to $6.2 billion
in 2007 from $3.8 billion in 1997, according to the U.S. Census.
Now, churches are seeing congregants lose jobs and savings.
The 125-year-old Mount Calvary Missionary Baptist Church, of
Jacksonville, Fla., borrowed about $2.6 million in 2002 to add a new
education wing, reflecting pool and tower. In addition, the church's
1,200 members pledged $1 million to the building campaign, but
two-thirds of that money was never actually donated, according to
the church's pastor, the Rev. John Allen Newman...

Commentary
For years, many have been warning and
as I have also consistently done on this website that the current
Western Mega Church Model is not sustainable and will not work in
the years to come. It is high time that Christians focus on what is
important - the souls of men and women, rather than dwell on
multi-million dollar mega church buildings.
What the Wall Street Journal is
reporting will continue to be a trend and many Mega Churches will be
auctioned off and Pastors will have to let go all those expensive
cars, sound systems, multi-media systems, Gulf Stream Jets,
including expensive designer clothes... The Church of Jesus Christ
is not found on the foundation of 'silver and gold', or the
'almighty dollar', and those who think that way are now waking up
rudely from their slumber...
It might be time for TBN, Creflo
Dollar, Benny Hinn and all the Word Faith Prosperity Movement
Preachers to begin looking for buyers of their Gulf Stream Jets and
million dollar homes even before the buyers disappear... It won't be
surprising to me to read in the future about Churches scammed by the
'Hedge Investment Fund' Guru, Madoff...
The solution is to get back to the Book
of Acts New Testament Model in which Christians gathered in homes or
rented meeting halls for their gatherings and much of the
collection they gathered was offered to take care of the poor,
widows and orphans....that Church grew and had much more life in
it...and never Read from 'Chapter 11 of the Book of
Bankruptcy'!

Economic Hardships: A Time to Trust and Learn in the Lord
NEW
Kato Mivule
December 16, 2008
Is it not quite exasperating to tune on radio, TV, or browse the
web and all the news is about a crumbling economy with no end in
sight for all the negative news? Well, it is in such times that
we tend to cry out most in prayer to The Lord. And yes, though
The Lord is not the creator of the current economic mess, He
will use such circumstances to draw His people back to Him.
Many
Christians have for a long time rejected the warnings of The
Lord in His Word concerning the times we live in and it is now
that some are waking up and seeking the face of The Lord. The
truth of the matter is that the “Almighty Dollar” has been a
‘god’ in the lives of very many Christians in the West. It seems
that The Lord is dealing with this very issue and hopefully many
Christians will take this time of economic trail and hardships
as a ‘visitation’ from The Lord circumstantially so that they
will fix their eyes on Jesus Christ the author and finisher of
their faith and not silver and gold.
Hopefully this will be a
time of soul searching and pulling down all those ‘high places’
on which foreign gods of the “Almighty Dollar” are worshiped. It
seems to me that the “Almighty Dollar” is being dethroned and
this is being allowed by The Lord so that a “New World Financial
Order” will take precedence, giving way to the apocalyptic 666
Economics where no one buys or sells without that number… This
does not mean that the collapse of the USA is now as some
suggest… However, if you watch carefully, a new Global World
Order is rising out of all this mess… It is like this current
situation is being used to push a New Global Financial Political
Order… It is all happening progressively and catapulted with
every global crisis, be it financial, political, social, or
cataclysmic convulsions of nature such as earthquakes,
hurricanes, Tsunamis etc…
However, my point is that this is time for all who are
Christians to totally Trust in The Lord. This is not a time to
give into fear and despair… I am in no way trivializing the
agony that many families are going through economically.
However, we as Christians are not a people without hope. This is
not to brag or boast or even sound aloof and perhaps delusional
in an escapism mode. No, in all humility, we place our trust in
The Lord and we trust and have faith in The Lord that He will
provide and care for His people. This is in no way a free pass
for The Lord’s people, that we shall not endure the pain… No,
no, no…on the contrary we are called to endure with perseverance
all the sufferings, hardships, and tribulations in Christ
Jesus…fixing our eyes on Him as set an example for us to follow…
This is something that the Church in the West has ignored and
held in low esteem for sometime…
However, there is no question
that Church in the West must now endure and persevere just like
her fellow brethren around the world… However, how many
Christians in the West will heed to this call, the call to share
in the fellowship of Christ sufferings?
Despite all the sufferings, hardships, tests, and tribulations,
The Lord will provide for His people. The Lord cares about our
daily needs. He will provide what we need and yes, this is the
time that we shall learn that The Lord is more interested in
meeting our needs and not wants… Much of what the Western Church
has had is ‘wants’… If a Pastor has need for a car, a simple
Toyota is not enough; he will ‘want’ to buy a Rolls Royce or a
Cadillac… Some Preacher will not even travel First Class but
will ‘want’ to own a Gulf Stream Jet… Many Churches ‘want’
Multi Million Dollar Mega Church Buildings… So, the Western
Church has been that way…operating in the ‘want’ mentality.
The
time for Laodicean Christianity is over; those who refuse to
heed The Lord’s call will be spewed out of His mouth…. However,
The Lord will provide our Need even in the midst of suffering
and tribulations. There is a lot of negativity around many
“Christian Prophetic” websites as all they see is doom and gloom
and virtually a none existent church during times of global
crisis. I will tell you that The Lord is not done yet with His
church. He will use the current circumstances to purify His
church and then send them out on the mission for souls, warning
every man to repent and that the kingdom of God is nigh!
The
Church will not be dead despite the Apostasy going on… The Lord
has His 7000 hidden away who will not bow down to Baal! Are you
one of them? Pray and ask The Lord to grant you grace and mercy
to be a part of them…that you will love and serve Jesus Christ
regardless of what you will go through… This is not a call for
'elitism' but a call for humility in trusting in The Lord
regardless of what we go through... Don’t place your trust
in fear and fear mongers, look to Jesus Christ, Trust Him and
rest in Him, live a simple life… He will provide your need…
Amen
Proverbs 3:5-6
(5)
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine
own understanding.
(6)
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Current Global
Economic Crisis, an Opportunity for Ministry
Kato Mivule
December 10, 2008
We all now know that the current economic crisis is not just
limited to the USA but is global. There is no “Economic Safe
Zone” on the face of this planet called Earth. The only safe
place economically is Heaven and as far as I can tell The Lord
has not raptured any Christian yet out of this current economic
mess.
It seems that He has allowed us to go through this crisis,
unless some says that we have all been “left behind”…and perhaps
you might need to ask Tim LaHaye and Gordon Lindsay and ask for
a refund for all those “end time prophecy” books…because it
seems that with every nationwide and global crisis, Christians
are still here and not raptured away… From the Tsunami, Katrina,
Hurricanes, Tornados and current Global Economic Crisis, it
seems to me that the Church is still here…
What happened to the ‘Imminence Doctrine’? Maybe the Secret
Rapture has already happened and even Tim LaHaye must have been
left behind!
On a serious note, the current global economic crisis is
negatively affecting the already poor especially in developing
Nations. There are also countless poor in America who live from
pay check to paycheck if lucky and many have lost their jobs.
Others simply work part time with no benefits and cannot afford
to make ends meet. Most of these folks am talking about are
Christians who truly love The Lord and serve him faithfully.
However, there are those of you among The Lord’s people that The
Lord has blessed considerably well even in this time of Economic
Crisis. The Lord in His providence and Sovereignty has allowed
that to happen to you so that you could minister to other saints
that are going through very tough times.
Even with this current economic crisis, the Church in the West
is still blessed with numerous resources more than any other
Church in any part of the world. However, I believe that this is
only for a very short time as we have been warning that this
window of opportunity will close and will not stay for ever.
This means that there is a call for every believer both poor and
rich to minister to those who are less fortunate than them…
The window of opportunity to minister in this current global
economic crisis is two fold… First and fore most is the call to
minister to the saints and then also minister to those who are
not yet Christian…not forgetting our family and relatives…
It is amazing to see with sadness how the Evangelical Church in
America is missing out on this opportunity. Many are still
caught up with the political distractions about having a
“Christian President” and ‘forcing’ everyone to become a
Christian through legislative maneuvers.
Of recent I have been receiving emails from folks on a
bunny-rabbit trail and wild-goose chasing about if Obama was
really born in the USA. As many people know, I am from Uganda,
East Africa, just close to Kenya…so emails have been coming in
asking if I know any Moslem Imam from Kenya who is said to have
Obama’s birth certificate and that this Moslem Imam witnessed
the birth of Obama in Kenya… Rumors have it that this particular
Moslem Imam with Obama's "real" Birth Certificate" from Kenya
has now fled East Africa and is residing in the UK under
political asylum (some clever Africans with experience in
poverty know how to seize moments and get free Visas to the
West).
So, folks have been ‘inquiring’ if I have any clue, so that they
could help bring Obama down and save America from a Moslem
Socialist Communist Marxist Dictator President…and take America
Back from the Heathens! One email even compared Obama to Idi
Amin! What I have learnt is that the Lawsuits about Obama’s US
Citizenship did not materialize and the US Supreme Court will
not listen to such drivel…
Well, fellow Christians, such actions from some Political
Evangelical Christians in the US is not what we are supposed to
be doing now… Chasing after Obama’s birth certificate is a waste
of time, energy, and resources. It is a distraction from the
Devil to divert Christians from what they are called to do in
the Bible and also miss this current window of opportunity to
minister to millions affected by the current Global Economic
Crisis…
This current economic crisis should be taken as an opportunity
to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, warning every man and
woman not to place trust in perishables like silver and gold but
place their trust and hope in Jesus Christ who alone is able to
save a soul from sin and the wrath of God to come.
We should know one thing for sure as Christians living in this
time and age…you cannot stop the forces of Globalization and the
coming New World/Financial/Economical/Political/Social Order.
The Bible has already prophesied that and it will happen!
I
remember, telling a brother that it was useless to pray against
the Antichrist and 666 systems…this brother was praying and
“resisting” the forces of the Antichrist on June 6, 2006 (2006,
6, 6), a date that some folks claimed would unveil the
Antichrist… It is now two years since that time and
Globalization and the New World Order seem to be taking shape
and gaining strength…
So, what are we to do? It is time to minister to the saints and
none Christians. I am not speaking about giving and increasing
your tithe to the Pastor of your Church. I am not speaking about
taking more money to buy Creflo Dollar and Benny Hinn a new Gulf
Stream Jet… I am not talking about you increasing your giving to
TBN… No! I am talking about you stopping giving that tithe of
yours to that rich Mega Church Pastor and taking it instead to that brother
or sister in Christ who you know lost their job and has no money
to pay winter heating bills…
Rather than give to help out
TBN and their fancy studios, go give that money to that
senior citizen Christian who has no one to care for them and all
their Social Security goes to pay Hospital bills… Reach out to
the Christian Man or Woman who lost their job and are facing a
foreclosure on their home… Reach out to the Soup Kitchens
across America… Many of them are Christian organizations and the
call lately from them has been a need for more food to feed the
poor and hungry…
Get out of your chair and comfort zone and do something! Stop
the nonsense, foolishness, stupidity, bunny trails, and
wild-goose chasing after Obama’s Birth Certificate and
“Christian President” narratives and GO DO SOMETHING TO HELP THE
POOR OF THE EARTH!!!!!!…
Christians in America, wakeup from your slumber… For how long
will The Lord call out to you and you simply refuse to respond?
When will you ever learn from all the circumstances The Lord has
allowed to come upon you? How long will The Lord bear with you?
The last time I checked, Christian Food Pantries are running out
of Food across America…GO OUT and minister there… You don’t have
to be Rich to help out…if you have an extra loaf of Bread…take
one out and donate it to the Food Pantry downtown… Many of these Pantries have Soup
days and preach the gospel there too… Reach out and stop the
nonsense of ‘crying’ because a “Christian President” did not win
the elections…
During their Global Economic Crisis, the early Church did not
sit around crying and weeping because Nero was Caesar, nor did
they seek to overthrow Rome to create a “Christian Empire”…nor
did they go on bunny trails and wild-goose chasing to check if
Nero or Titus was really a Natural Born Citizen of the Roman
Empire…and try to find their “Birth Certificates”….instead they
reached out to the poor saints and with their few resources,
collected money to help the poor saints in Jerusalem…and that is
what we must be doing now…
Acts 11:28-30
(28)
And there stood up one of them named Agabus, and signified by
the spirit that there should be great dearth throughout all the
world: which came to pass in the days of Claudius Caesar.
(29)
Then the disciples, every man according to his ability,
determined to send relief unto the brethren which dwelt in
Judea:
(30)
Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of
Barnabas and Saul.
Romans 15:25-26
(25)
But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.
(26)
For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a
certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.
Galatians 2:9-10
(9)
And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars,
perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and
Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we
should
go
unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
(10)
Only they
would
that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was
forward to do.
1 Timothy 5:8
(8)
But if any provide not for his own, and especially for those of
his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an
infidel.
2 Corinthians 9:7-9
(7)
Every man according as he purposeth in his heart,
so
let
him
give;
not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful
giver.
(8)
And God is
able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having
all sufficiency in all
things,
may abound to every good work:
(9)
(As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to
the poor: his righteousness remaineth forever.
This is also an opportunity to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ
to many who are falling through the cracks of the current
economic meltdown… It is time to reach out to lost souls in this
crisis time and share the gospel, perhaps they will listen
without the distractions that perishables like Silver and Gold
bring…
My challenge to you is that you can begin today and right
now…checkout for all those Soup Kitchen and Food Pantries out
there and see how you can help… You don’t have to be rich but
even with the little that The Lord has blessed you with, you can
buy a few cans of beans and rice and take them to the Food
shelters… Help out with those who have lost their jobs, help
them fill out job applications if they don’t know how to…my
point is that DO SOMETHING FOR CHRIST!
Take care of your family and relatives and find out how they are
doing regardless if they are Christian or not…or democrat or
republican… Let your gospel not be in words only but in deeds
also… Above all be humble as you minister to the poor of the
earth, don’t be elitist and think that they can only survive
with you…or try to control and manipulate the poor through your
giving…
Give freely, with a cheerful heart and not grudgingly or as
being forced to. Don’t give because it is a law to do so…give
freely…that is why I say, don’t go give to the rich mega church
pastors but to the poor Christian and none Christian neighbor of
yours… Let The Lord Lead you in this ministry… Don’t give
with strings attached… Freely you have received from The Lord,
so freely give…
In Christ Jesus

The
Lord’s Sovereignty; Is Obama a Servant of God?
Kato Mivule
December 3rd 2008
Are you as a Christian still perturbed by an Obama Presidency?
Well, I had a discussion with one individual online about the
same issue and they responded to me with a question wanting to
know if Idi Amin, Uganda’s former notorious Dictator was a
Servant of God in context with Romans Chapter 13?
Well, this individual was trying to draw
parallels between Obama and Idi Amin. However, even though the
question was far fetched from this individual, as Uganda is not
America and Obama is not Idi Amin…, I decided to answer by
asking a few questions of my own to this individual…
The point
is that The Lord reigns over all the kings of the earth and The
Lord is Sovereign over all. It is The Lord that chooses and
allows in His permissive will both good and evil leaders to
places of power and authority so as to fulfill God’s own
purposes and plans.
Now, some have gone to the
extreme of worshiping Obama and calling him 'Messiah'....on the
other hand are those Christians who totally hate him (Obama) and
engage in all types of rebellious incitements and rage against
his Presidency, a thing which the Bible forbids us to do, at
least in the plain understanding of Romans Chapter 13...some
crazy and zealot 'Christian Politicians' have put a 'spin' on
Romans Chapter 13 to cater for an 'armed rebellion'...
The Bible refers to King
Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon as a 'Servant of God'...of course we
know he was a servant not for good but judgment on other nations
after which Babylon itself was judged by God....
Many Christians in the West get disturbed
because of a none ‘Christian Leader’ yet we see scripture The
Lord raises leaders at different times for His own purposes.
I
believe that the time of so-called favor from Politicians
towards Christians in the West is over. I foresee the US
Republicans divorce themselves from the US Evangelicals as the
evangelicals become more of a liability… Jesus Christ clearly
stated in Matthew 24 that “You shall be hated of all nations for
my Name sake…”
The Lord is rising up leaders who will usher in a
Global Persecution against any one who preaches and teaches in
The Name of Jesus Christ. Prepare yourself because the days when
the State favored you because you are a Christian are OVER! The
days of a “Christian Nation” and “Christian President” are OVER!
The time has come that it will cost you, even your life, to call
your self after The Name of Jesus Christ!
=======================================================
Email Response...
=======================================================
Thanks for the reply…however, to answer the Idi Amin question, I
will have to ask a few of these questions….
Was King Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon a Servant of God or
Baal?
Jeremiah 27:1-11
(1)
In the beginning of the reign of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah
king of Judah came this word unto Jeremiah from the LORD,
saying,
(2)
Thus saith the LORD to me; Make thee bonds and yokes, and put
them upon thy neck,
(3)
And send them to the king of Edom, and to the king of Moab, and
to the king of the Ammonites, and to the king of Tyrus, and to
the king of Zidon, by the hand of the messengers which come to
Jerusalem unto Zedekiah king of Judah;
(4)
And command them to say unto their masters, Thus saith the LORD
of hosts, the God of Israel; Thus shall ye say unto your
masters;
(5)
I have made the earth, the man and the beast that
are
upon the ground, by my great power and by my outstretched arm,
and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me.
(6)
And now have I given all these lands
into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant;
and the beasts of the field have I given him also to serve him.
(7)
And all nations shall serve him, and his son, and his son's son,
until the very time of his land come: and then many nations and
great kings shall serve themselves of him.
(8)
And it shall come to pass,
that
the nation and kingdom which will not serve the same
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, and that will not put their
neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, that nation will I
punish, saith the LORD, with the sword, and with the famine, and
with the pestilence, until I have consumed them by his hand.
(9)
Therefore hearken not ye to your prophets, nor to your diviners,
nor to your dreamers, nor to your enchanters, nor to your
sorcerers, which speak unto you, saying, Ye shall not serve the
king of Babylon:
(10)
For they prophesy a lie unto you, to remove you far from your
land; and that I should drive you out, and ye should perish.
(11)
But the nations that bring their neck under the yoke of the king
of Babylon, and serve him, those will I let remain still in
their own land, saith the LORD; and they shall till it, and
dwell therein.
Was King Cyrus of Persia a Servant of God or Baal?
Isaiah 45:1-4
(1)
Thus saith the LORD to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand
I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose
the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and
the gates shall not be shut;
(2)
I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I
will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the
bars of iron:
(3)
And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden
riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD,
which call
thee by thy name,
am
the God of Israel.
(4)
For Jacob my servant's sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even
called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast
not known me.
Who Hardened the Heart of Pharaoh King of Egypt, was it Moses
or God?
Romans 9:17-23
(17)
For the Scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose
have I raised thee up, that I might show my power in thee, and
that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
(18)
Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will
have
mercy,
and whom he will he hardeneth.
(19)
Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who
hath resisted his will?
(20)
Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall
the thing formed say to him that formed
it,
Why hast thou made me thus?
(21)
Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to
make one vessel unto honor, and another unto dishonor?
(22)
What
if God, willing to show
his
wrath, and to make his power known, endured with much
longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
(23)
And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the
vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,
The Lord Rules over the Kingdoms of Men and Gives it to
whoever He chooses
Daniel 4:17
(17)
This matter
is
by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the
holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most
High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever
he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.
Jesus Christ Reigns over the kings of the earth…
Revelation 1:5-6
(5)
And from Jesus Christ,
who
is
the faithful witness,
and
the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of
the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins
in his own blood,
(6)
And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to
him be
glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
Perhaps The Lord is rising up Barrack Obama so that the Church
in America will quit fixing their eyes on Politicians to help
them out in matters of Holiness, Righteousness, and Morality.
I
believe that this will certainly be a forerunner of the
Antichrist, Globalism and the New World Government headed by the
Antichrist…
However, even then, we are to not engage in incitement,
rebellion and upheavals against the Secular Government. We are
to obey Romans 13 regardless, unless we are commanded to deny
our faith or stop preaching and teaching in Jesus Christ’s Name…
Acts 5:27-29
(27)
And when they had brought them, they set
them
before the council: and the high priest asked them,
(28)
Saying, Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach
in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your
doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.
(29)
Then Peter and the
other
apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than
men.
Acts 5:40-42
(40)
And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles,
and beaten
them, they commanded
that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them
go.
(41)
And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing
that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
(42)
And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to
teach and preach Jesus Christ.
Romans Chapter 13 was written to Christians who lived under the
Roman Empire. The Leaders of Rome were Sodomites, Child
Molesters, and haters of God and heavily persecuted the Church
of Jesus Christ.
It is in the context of persecution under Emperor Nero and other
haters of God that Romans Chapter 13 is written so as to address
the issue of Christians who might think it wise to take up guns
and fight against and overthrow the Roman Empire… Christians in
America are falling into the deception and temptation of
believing that America will become a Christian Nation… It will
not happen…
In Uganda, Christians did not fight in arms against Idi Amin. In
fact the Church saw more revival and growth underground under
heavy persecution from Idi Amin than the Apostasy we are
witnessing under the “Christian President” Museveni who seems
favorable to Ugandan Christians…
If Christians in other parts of the world can endure persecution
and grow even under dictatorships, I believe Christians in
America can endure a little ‘Barack Obama Secular Humanist’
Persecution! The Gospel will still be preached.
Communism could not stop the Bible, neither did Socialism stop
Christianity; the Roman Catholic Inquisition could not stop the
Gospel. Stalin failed to stump out Christianity; China has
failed at keeping Christianity at bay…
The Only threat to Christianity Today is right under our noses,
and that is TBN and the whole Prosperity, get rich quick gospel.
What Islam has failed to accomplish in destroying True
Christianity in Africa, TBN and the Prosperity, Word Faith
Movement have succeeded in destroying as you have personally
witnessed when you visited East Africa… It is even worse now…
My prayer, is that Christians in America will cool down from all
the Election Fever and seek The Lord’s Face and see what The
Lord is doing…and YES, perhaps the there is need for a leader
who will rise up to persecute the Western Church that it may
awake from it’s slumber…and if that leader is perhaps Obama,
then why fight against the Sovereignty and Permissive will of God?
Don’t we need to step back a little bit and see what The Lord is
doing????
How do we expect Bible Prophecy
to be Fulfilled????
