2 Chronicles 28:22

 In his time of trouble King Ahaz became even more unfaithful to the Lord.

He offered sacrifices to the gods of Damascus, who had defeated him; for he thought, " Since the gods of the kings of Aram have helped them, I will sacrifice to them so they will help me".

But they were his downfall and the downfall of all Israel.

Ahaz gathered together the furnishings, from the temple of God and took them

away. He shut the doors of the Lord's temple and set up altars at every street corner in Jerusalem.

As I sit here today in the presence of the Lord, I hear Him say:   This is where some of my children are today.

We live in uncertain times, full of heartaches, failures, and disappointments, In a time where we are seeing one disaster after another, many families are being attacked through sickness or deaths of loved ones, most are struggling financially to survive and the enemy has strategically fought to destroy God's children.

I believe if we could journey back to the day of King Ahaz, we would find this same kind of turmoil.......He had been faithful to God and in times past God had brought him to great victories but now all of a sudden he lost his battles and he felt as if God had forsaken him therefore he turned his eyes on those who had defeated him and sought the paths that supposedly had brought them victory!!!

When if Ahaz had remained faithful, and

trusted in God, God would have brought him back to victory again...but regardless of where we are, or what we are facing we must stay faithful to God.

You see satan desires to tear down our faith, He desires to discredit God.

He wants us to loose sight of all God has

already done for us and he wants us to only see others that don't even know God much less believe in Him or put Him first in their life, they are focused only on themselves, and their success and their happiness....

Then Satan says:

See they don't even acknowledge your God and look how blessed they are, they have made themselves God's and Goddesses, they have made all their achievements their God, they have made their riches their God, they have taken God out of everything, out of their schools, out of their government, out of their homes, and churches.

  Now!! I hear satan scoff, they are a joke, they have become a social club, empty of the power and the annointing 

of God!!! 

 Everyone goes to church sick, burdened

down with troubles and cares of life, broke, busted, and disgusted, and they leave the same way they came!!! 

Yes, Church I believe we are standing in the same place King Ahaz was standing but God is saying,  Stand on My Word!!!

Stand on My Faithfulness, do not allow

your heart to be turned!!!

2Corinthians 4:8

We are pressed on every side, but not

crushed, perplexed, but not in despair,

persecuted but not forsaken, cast down

but not destroyed.....It is in our faithfulness that our victory comes....

Don't allow your focus to be on others,

Set your face like a flint!!!  Stand still

on the Word God has given you and spoke upon your life.

Ephesians 1:4   For He chose us in Him

before the creation of the world, to be

Holy and blameless in His sight.

In love He predestinated us to be adopted as His Sons through Christ Jesus, in accordance with His pleasure

and will, to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given unto us in the One He loves for In Him we have redemption through His blood and the

forgiveness of sins, in accordance with

the riches of God's grace that He has lavished upon us with all wisdom and understanding.

You see Christ is all we need, and I hear

Him calling out in these Last Days, In

times of uncertainty, My Children! My Children! Look to me, Trust In Me....

Do not allow your hearts to go astray..

Stand strong in your Faith....Call Unto Me and I will answer you!!   Put me first again in your heart and life...Don't allow your love for me to wax cold, Be aware of the snares of the enemy, and judge your actions against my word, Line upon line and precept upon precept...For you may still face the battle but you will not be alone, for I will never leave you nor forsake you, I will arise and your enemies will scatter...saith the Lord of host...Do not be afraid,  Seek my face, and I will lay my favour upon you and

My Glory shall arise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In the midst of the battle you will find victory.....
