JACOB'S LADDER

God Spelled Backwards Is Dog

Hello my friends,

I have indeed missed you all. I so wish I had more time to share with you all, but I do know that everything happens the way it is meant to happen. And so it is a foolish thing to beat yourself up if things in your life going in a different direction than you would like. The scriptures teach us that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR THE GOOD of those that love the Lord. And so every single thing we experience in this world is a necessary part of our spiritual evolution.

There are times in our life when we simply are not afforded the wisdom and insight to make, what we would consider, a better choice. In scripture we have read of how God blinds those he sees fit so he can graft others into his vine of love.

Romans 11:6-8
6 And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
7 What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
8 (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.

Now, if this be the case we must not condemn ourselves with the past. The past no longer exists. The past was only there to get us to the present. And we all know that the present is all there really is.

I remember years ago, not understanding why God hardened Pharaoh’s heart which prevented him from letting Israel go, but later in life I realized that like the struggle of the caterpillar in the cocoon if the butterfly was released to early from it’s tomb it would not have the strength to survive and thrive in it’s new form.

This gives us all reason to rejoice, for buy it we understand that our present suffering is working in us a far greater reward than what we would have achieved without it.

Romans 8:18
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.

And so my friends, I want you to remember this short message today. Because we will rise from our cocoon in this world. We will resurrect from the grave of this world. And we will overcome this world by that which we endure.

And so count it all joy my brothers and sisters, as the scriptures state… because the glorious day of our revealing is upon us. This generation shall indeed NOT PASS until all is fulfilled. I personally believe this time to be an awakening of such magnitude that it will change everything we thought we knew about the world and ourselves.

So please remember to let patience have it’s perfect work.

James 1
2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

And let us not forget the day we are in. This morning this was a poem I wrote to give everyone a taste of the essay I am about to write.

The Day That Is Upon Us!

Watch and Pray for the sign of Jonah is on it’s way. And for some it has been here for quite sometime.

We have been in the belly of Hell (Great Fish) for three days and soon it will be time to rise.

So the next Pharisee that comes to me, and asks of me, prove it all with the sign.

With this next verse I will remind. If you can’t see the trouble that is soon to be, then you haven’t paid attention all the other signs.

And now, none shall be given, but the giving of sight to the blind!

The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and tested him by asking him to show them a sign from heaven.

and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.” Jesus then left them and went away. (Matthew 16:1, 3-4 NIV)
