Unvirtuous Characteristic

Yesterday we drove to Myrtle Beach for a short vacation. I brought one of my older sons with me also to help drive. He offered to drive the whole way there and back. But I knew that it is more than just sitting in a seat and maneuvering a steering wheel. Driving can lead to a lot of expended energy when using care.

He is a very good driver, and the trip is 13.5 hours. I started driving and after an hour and a half he took over, driving approximately 8.5-9 hours straight. Because I wanted to see the sights, I didn't take the opportunity to sleep like I should have.

Be Anxious for Nothing

I was also anxious because I chose to sit in the back with my daughter and could not see from a driver or front seat passenger perspective. The steep slopes, lack of guardrails, and high altitude in West Virginia just added to my stress.

Once my son asked for a break I had to take over. By then my "aging" eyes and the rain definitely weren't cooperating with me. But by God's grace my son had made it through the most exhausting portion of the drive. It made me realize that there was another component that I needed to deal with. The need to be and feel in control.

Let Go and Let God

As long as we are obedient to God, He will keep us. I am now feeling as if I insulted Him because I was worrying and anxious. As if I could keep my family safe by my own strength. It also prevented me from enjoying the scenery and the rest that I needed. Leading to even more anxiety and chaotic emotions.

The negative traits of controlling others is the same as witchcraft. Trusting God is a necessity for me to work on. Additionally, I deprived my spirit of the joy and peace of spending time with my family. Lesson learned!!!

No Bullying Allowed!!!

No Bullying Allowed!!! Please understand that boundaries were not only set for Israel, but for all the nations of the earth. They were meant to be honored and not transgressed upon. God is just. He did not allow looting unless the iniquity of a nation was full and they were being judged by Him. It was only then that even the Israelites were allowed to take the spoil. Greed is not in His character. It is not necessary. “For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills. I know all the fowls of the mountains: and the wild beasts of the fields are mine. If I were hungry, I would not tell thee: for the world is mine, and the fullness thereof” (Psalm 50: 10-12, KJV). This is the lesson that was given so the Israelites would know how these same “giants” and great nations were conquered by their ancestors in the past. Pay attention as we go back to how Abraham saved Lot from Chedorlaomer and three other kings with their armies, who had just defeated fiv...

The Covenant Keeper!!!

The Covenant Keeper!!! It is clear to me that we are to trust God and not men. I want to make it clear as spiritual warfare is being ramped up. And why I needed to be reminded of the above as I expound on this as it permeates the earth. Even more grievously in health care. “These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto Him: a proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, an heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, a false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren” (Proverbs 6: 16-19, KJV). As you meditate on this, ask God to reveal the “wicked imaginations” such as putting a pig's heart in a man. The “proud look” (the attitude that makes one overestimate oneself and discount others, AMPLIFIED). Such as those who deem themselves “gods”. That they should be able to choose who lives or dies. The sowing of discord. The constant workplace bullying, harassment, and hostile...

The Wisdom of God's Laws!!!

The Wisdom of God's Laws!!! As I listen to the diatribe of men and women in leadership, the psychopathic, recalcitrant behaviors, I notice that there is a severe break in perception. Psychosis is pervading the minds of many. And the truly frightening thing is that it is becoming the "normal" state of being. A “trickle-down effect” being effectively spewed to the masses. The Holy Spirit had me to do some research as He was confirming to me that this is of Him. Educating me that racism is one type or form of psychosis. Discussions were held in the past to classify this type of ideology as a mental health disorder. Why do you think that it never happened? As we continue I want to touch on one of the most egregious forms of idolatry. The most popular depiction of Jesus Christ by Warner Sallman, “The Head of Christ”. Through a partnership with two publishing companies. One Protestant and the other Catholic. Along with other portraits combining “gods” and pagans. All wit...
