Exodus 20:2-5 “I am the Lord your God, who rescued you from the land of Egypt, the place of your slavery. You must not have any other god but me. You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea. You must not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods. I lay the sins of the parents upon their children; the entire family is affected – even children in the third and fourth generations of those who reject me. But I lavish unfailing love for a thousand generations on those who love me and obey my commands”

These words were given to Moses thousands of years ago. They were to guide the behavior and hearts of my children. I have not changed. Nor have my commands changed. You are not to worship any god but me. You are not to create idols of anything that take my place in your hearts. You are not to replace me with anything or anyone. Yet, here you are. You have been inching me out for many, many years. You have replaced me with so many idols it is impossible to list them all – money, fame, sex, position and power, electronic devices, inventions, shopping, drugs, alcohol, self-image, professions – anything you have in your life can be and has been turned into an idol. And so, you have chosen to push me out and I am honoring those decisions. Your Nation is in ruins – financially, physically, morally, spiritually – in every way. And it is because you have rejected me. It is because you have dedicated your lives to pleasure and self-fulfillment over honor and obedience to me. Your children and your grandchildren are suffering as a result of years of decisions by their ancestors. Your nation will continue to suffer and descend into chaos if you do not repent and return to me. Wholeheartedly. Humbly. Sincerely. For this promise has not changed, either: I will (and do) lavish unfailing love for a thousand generations on those who love me and obey me. But not on those who worship anything or anyone other than me.  Choose. But, eyes open. Ask yourselves: how have prior choices been working out for you? (2022)

Matthew 23:13-14  “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you shut the door of the Kingdom of Heaven in people’s faces. You won’t go in yourselves, and you don’t let others enter either.”

There is much fallacy and false teaching in my Church today. There are many who profess to speak for me that are spreading false doctrine. Woe to you. You will be judged harshly for leading my children astray, for keeping my children from knowing me, from following and obeying me. It would be better for you had you never known me than to know me and misrepresent me. Teachers and pastors are held to a higher standard than others. You represent me. Do not do so lightly or falsely.  (2022)

Matthew 23:1-4 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, “The teachers of religious law and the Pharisees are the official interpreters of the law of Moses. So practice and obey whatever they tell you, but don’t follow their example. For they don’t practice what they teach. They crush people with impossible religious demands and never lift a finger to ease the burden.”

This is being played out again by your government and others in positions of power. They make laws and regulations and impose conditions that strangle and crush the people. All the while they do not comply with those laws, regulations , etc.  They do whatever they wish, while imposing demands on the people. This two tiered system will be the end of your Nation. These regulations, laws, etc. do not come from me. They are created by and implemented by those who would control you. Though people are waking up to this, their attempts to control every aspect of your lives increases. Daily. Exponentially. Wake up. You are losing the rights that I give to you as my creation, my children. Their main tool is fear. But, what is their to fear? Suffering and hardship in your lifetime? That is guaranteed anyway. Human life is not perfect. What is perfect? Your relationship with me and your guarantee of eternity in my presence. That is what matters. That is what you should fear losing. So, if you trust in me, if you have true faith in me, then what is there to fear? Nothing. 

“And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” Matthew 10:28

Memorize this. Burn its meaning into your very soul. Do not allow them to cause you to fear. Trust me. Believe in me. It is all under my control, no matter how it looks. (2022)

Exodus 15:24 Then the people complained and they turned against Moses.

3 days. 3 days after parting the sea, leading my children across on dry ground and then swallowing up the entire army of Pharaoh that pursued them…..3 days later my children are complaining.

Exodus 16:1-3 They arrived there on the fifteenth day of the second month, one month after leaving the land of Egypt. There, too, the whole community of Israel complained about Moses and Aaron. “If only the Lord had killed us back in Egypt,” they moaned. “There we sat around pots filled with meat and ate all the bread we wanted. But now you have brought us into this wilderness to starve us all to death.”

How quickly ….just one month later ….do my children forget that they were slaves, mistreated and beaten by the Egyptians, forced to do impossible labor, at one time having their male infants killed by their slave owners. They did not want inconvenience, did not want to give up what they thought they had, did not want to suffer hardship for their freedom, for the liberty to live and worship as my children. So like your people today. You complain about losing your freedom. You complain about the evil in government and big companies. You complain about inflation, taxes and all the other ways you are bled dry. But, you do nothing. You are not willing to do what it will take to change this. Really change all of this. Will you give up your luxuries? Will you do without? Will you do whatever it takes the break the back of those who have a stranglehold on your lives?  Will you experience want? Inconvenience? Pain? Or will you continue to complain, whine and moan and ask me why I am not helping you? I will help you. But you have to do the footwork. Time is running out. You are losing ground daily and almost have reached the point of no return. Will you get up and act? 

Matthew 22:29 Jesus replied, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the Scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God.” 

So many that profess to know me do not. So many that profess to understand my Word do not. They twist it and make it say what they want it to say. They believe they know me, but they know the version of me that they create to make themselves happy. Do you know me? Do you know my Word? Or is it all just interpretations that make you feel good? Interpretations that allow you to live how you would like to? Interpretations that would justify elevating yourself, your feelings, your sense of “self-esteem”, your finances, your power base? Search your heart. And then search my Word, daily, seek Truth and you will find it there – not within yourself or another human. Exercise great caution when listening to or reading those who claim to know me. Be a Berean. Verify everything. Check it against my Word. Pray about it. You have been led to read and listen to those who are not of me in the past. But you have become wiser. Do not allow yourself to slip in that area. There are many, many out there that profess me, but will not be with me in eternity. Watch them closely. Compare their actions to their words. And, again, look to me for what is True and Good and eternally valuable. Only me. Does this mean I cannot speak through people? No, of course not. Look at Paul. David. Solomon and others whom I have used to bring my Truth to you. There are still many who bring my Truth to you. However, many are charlatans. Many profess me but elevate themselves. You have discernment. Pay attention to it. And always, always, always question before blindly believing. (2022)

Exodus 14:21-22 Then Moses raised his hand over the sea, and the Lord opened up a path through the water with a strong east wind. The wind blew all that night, turning the seabed into dry land. So the people of Isreal walked through the middle of the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on each side!

You fear that your enemy is too strong, too well entrenched, too well supported to be conquered. You fear that your people will never be entirely free of them. Well, I am the same God who used the wind to divide the sea – to build walls of water that held back the sea so my children could cross safely on dry ground. Can I not do the same for you? Can I not provide a safe passage out of harm’s way? Will I not honor my children today as I did then? Remember, they were at that time doubting me. They were wishing to return to Egypt and slavery so that they would be “safe”. They were openly rebelling in their lack of faith. Yet, I delivered them. So I will today even though so many of my children are openly rebelling and not trusting me to keep them safe and well. You see, child, your people really never change. Nor do I.

Exodus 14:28, 15:6 Of all the Egyptians who had chased the Israelites into the sea, not a single one survived.

Your right hand, O Lord, is glorious in power. Your right hand, O Lord, smashes the enemy. In the greatness of your majesty, you overthrow whose who rise against you. Your unleash your blazing fury; it consumes them like straw.

As it was with the Egyptians, so it will be with your enemies. In my timing. (2022)

Exodus 14:1-4; 10-14 Then the Lord said to Moses, 2 “Tell the people of Israel to turn back and encamp in front of Pi-hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, in front of Baal-zephon; you shall encamp facing it, by the sea. 3 For Pharaoh will say of the people of Israel, ‘They are wandering in the land; the wilderness has shut them in.’ 4 And I will harden Pharaoh’s heart, and he will pursue them, and I will get glory over Pharaoh and all his host, and the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord.” And they did so.

10 When Pharaoh drew near, the people of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them, and they feared greatly. And the people of Israel cried out to the Lord. 11 They said to Moses, “Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? What have you done to us in bringing us out of Egypt? 12 Is not this what we said to you in Egypt: ‘Leave us alone that we may serve the Egyptians’? For it would have been better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in the wilderness.” 13 And Moses said to the people, “Fear not, stand firm, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will work for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall never see again. 14 The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”

Not only did I not lead the Israelites directly away from Pharaoh, but I had them turn back and camp next to the sea shore. I put them directly in a position to be attacked by Pharaoh and his troops. Did I know what Pharaoh would do? Did I know he would mount up his warriors and rush to attack my children? Yes. I had a purpose for these seemingly wrong decisions. I turned Pharaoh’s heart once more and had him attack. Why? Why would I put my children directly in harm’s way? That was their question when they saw Pharaoh and his troops approaching. Why would I direct them to their death? But, again, they were making assumptions and decisions based on emotion – this time fear. Just as your world is making fear-based decisions, so did the Israelites. They chose to forget the miracles and deliverance that I had just arranged on their behalf. They chose to act out in fear rather than sit back and trust that I would continue to protect them, guide them, lead them to safety and freedom. So it is today. So many of my followers are living in the fear that your modern day pharaohs are instilling. So many have chosen to stop believing what they profess to believe. So many do not really trust me. Perhaps that is one of the reasons I do not deliver instantly. If I were to do so, how would you know if you really believe and trust? I had my reasons for these directives given to my children the Israelites. I wanted to show them – to show the world – that I was the One True God – and only me. I wanted them, as well as the Egyptians, to be reminded of who I am. Watch me. Just watch me. I will prove myself yet again and we will see who really has faith. 

Exodus 14:17 “My great glory will be displayed through Pharaoh and his troops, his chariots, and his charioteers. When my glory is displayed through them, all Egypt will see my glory and know what I am the Lord.”

Your modern day Egyptians – the evil ones who are harming my children – will see my glory and know who I am. I AM. You know it. My true remnant knows it. Soon all will not be able to deny it. Stay close. Eyes on me only. (2022)

Exodus 13:17 When Pharaoh finally let the people go, God did not lead them along the main road that runs through Philistine territory, even though that was the shortest route to the Promised Land.

This is what happens in your life. I do not act in the ways that you would think. I do not bring things about the most “logical” way. But, will you trust me? Will you believe that I know the best way to do things? Yes, it would be wonderful if I were to fix all the problems in your Nation and world right now. It would be so much easier for you all if I would just eradicate evil from among you. It would be so much better if I would act now. But, trust me that I know this: if everything is too easily remedied, you will not learn and sooner rather than later you all will be right back here. Your memories are very short. Your decisions are too often emotion-based, not well thought out. You want to feel better. But, do you want to BE better? Do you want to become more like me? Do you want to do what is right in the long term for your Nation? Do you want to finally really be rid of the evil that you all have invited in for so many years? Yes, I can fix it all instantly. I can reveal it all in one second. I can make everyone see Truth and Light. But, that does not work with you all. And, deep down, you know it. Stay close. Trust me and trust my timing and my methods. Your best ideas have not worked……

Exodus 9:14 “Let my people go so they can worship me. If you don’t, I will send more plagues on you and your officials and your people. Then you will know that there is no one like me in all the earth.”

Just as had to happen to prove to Pharaoh and the Egyptians that I alone am God, so will have to happen to your world. It will require epic judgment. It will require something big enough to get their attention. I will protect you, as I did my people in the judgments against Pharaoh and his people. But, it will be horrific and everyone will be affected. Stand firm. Stand close. Look to me. Not around. Not at those around you. But to me. And do not allow the fear mongering of your enemy to take root in your heart.  (2022)

Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.”

Woe to those who are harming my children. Woe to those who are mandating policies that bring them harm. Woe to those parents who do not protect them. There is judgment waiting for all who have harmed my innocent ones. They are a treasure given by me and are to be treated as such. They are defenseless and look to parents to protect them. Yet they are being harmed. (2022)
