From This Time Forth And Forever

Are you sick and tired of the seemingly non-stop

war of words going on in our nation today on a daily basis?

The American news media has launched an all out campaign

of reporting "fake news" to try and discredit and destroy 

President Donald Trump.

So far it has backfired in their faces.

Most of the American people, myself included, do not

trust nor believe in anything they say!

Tired and disgusted of  the profanity-laced rants

 and sexual perversion found on the television and  the Internet?

Of our sickening modern culture which glorifies debauchery and violence, especially acts
of disrespect and lawlessness against those in authority?

The indifference to God and His Word, and the growing apostasy within the
so-called 'organized' Christian churches in America today?

Are you so fed up with the way things are going that you have seriously considered shucking all the

 conveniences of 21st century living and want to

 live out the rest of your life in seclusion like a hermit?

Saint Catherine's Monastery

Mount Sinai, Egypt

Sometimes I think the God-fearing men and women

 of centuries past who did live in seclusion

 from the world had the right idea all along.

However, being isolated from the influence of the world

did not make them less vulnerable as human beings to the

taunts and temptations of the flesh, nor did their 

self-imposed isolation guard them from the often

subtle attacks of the enemy of their souls.

Although it is very easy to want to run and hide away some place

these days, what I have to keep reminding myself is,

 that despite the sharp increase in appalling acts of  

 human wickedness we are witnessing on an almost daily basis, 

 the Lord Who created the heavens and the earth is still

   very much in control of this crazy and chaotic world.

And even though I sometimes think I would have been 

better off living in a past time, I know God has placed me 

right where He wants me to be in the present one.

Encouragement from the Word of God

for the remnant of His church in America and many

other nations in the world today.

Psalm 125

A Song of Ascents

Those who trust in, lean on, and confidently hope

in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved,

but abides and stands fast forever.

As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord

is round about His people from this time forth and forever.

For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the land

of the uncompromisingly righteous, 

lest the righteous, God's people,

stretch forth their hands to iniquity and apostasy.

Do good, O Lord, to those who are good, and to those who

are right with You and all people, in their hearts.

As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways,

of indifference to God, the Lord will lead them forth

with the workers of iniquity.

Peace be upon Israel!

And may the Lord's peace be upon you, the reader!

Read this, and remember to keep on looking up expectantly

my brothers and sisters, for our Redemption draws ever closer!

Come soon, Lord Yeshua Ha'masiach!

O Lord, Our Lord
