Buried Treasure Unseen by the World and Reserved for God’s People
It was a vision that bothered me enormously when shown a vision of a large chest full of treasure deep within the earth. The lid was partly off so the contents were displayed. Day after day for some three weeks I asked the Spirit to show me the meaning of it.
How Do We Make the Transition From Confusion to Confidence in These Traumatic Times?Psychosomatic reactions can produce physical consequences. How do we move from confusion to confidence? As I look back over my lifetime I am not aware of a period where there has been more unrest and dissatisfaction and confusion in so many areas of life. So much depends upon our attitude and I have been looking at perspectives and attitudes quite recently. One of the most healthy attitudes or emotions we can cultivate is that of gratitude, or being thankful. A most unhealthy attitude or emotion is that of bitterness – holding onto grudges, grievances, and resentments. That can be like drinking poison, hoping it will kill someone else.
When There Is Confusion, Darkness, Fear and Impending Death, Is That Not When We Need Light?Confusion appears to be reigning and governing the lives of many in these present times. I wonder why? Politics and economics and morality appear to have changed so much over these past few years. Thirty years ago when we looked at certain aspects of life there was a clarity which is absent today. Yes, there were problems but we knew what we were doing and why we were doing it. When we were at war in 1939 to 1945 we knew who the enemy was and we knew where the enemy was, and at least we knew what we were doing. This is not so today. How can you wage war against terror? When man leaves and departs from the basics all kinds of secure certainties and foundations crash and crumble.

A Brief Discussion On the Cost/Benefit of DiscipleshipA disciple of Jesus is someone who knows who they are, in Christ, but also in reality. They keep both truths in the forefront of their mind. They treasure both truths in their heart.
Why God Allowed Religions and False Gods to Fool the WorldThe depth of ignorance related to religious power and the fake gods of man’s creation is bringing nations into conflict and the world to an end. From a common starting point the variety of faiths and worship of different idols spread into areas where the lack of contact allowed development of different cultures. In places where contact with others took place similarities between them remain.
If You Are Weary, or Spiritually Weak, or If This Is Your Question, Your Answer Might Be HereWhat are the benefits from believing in Jesus Christ, and what does it really mean to believe in Jesus? As soon as I repent and believe, everything I have ever done wrong is forgiven, because of what Jesus Christ did on the cross. God forgives us freely, completely, instantly. Many are carrying secret guilt, and secret regret, and secret shame. The risen Jesus can rid a person of these. Everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins through His name. God does not want us to drift through life aimlessly. We can discover God’s plan and purpose for our lives. We need God’s power to say ‘Yes’, and God’s power to say ‘No’. This is not just for some select few. This is available for every and each disciple of Jesus Christ.
Is It Coincidence Or A Sign From The UniverseJust a coincidence? When we take notice of these moments magic can happen. I believe they can be signposts to help us along a path or spiritual journey.
Incompetence of Human EffortIt is God’s grace that brings the desire of man’s heart. You may try your efforts but it is the grace of God that will bring the result.
The Universal Spirit and the Great Hailstones Sent to Destroy the Wall of DeceptionAt the time the prophecies of the Old Testament were written the authors used terms familiar to them. Hailstones fall from the sky during storms. Thunder, lightning, and wind usually accompany them.
The Universal Spirit and the Two Candlesticks Men Follow to Destroy the PlanetDescribing the two beasts of Revelation as ‘candlesticks’ seems odd, but that is exactly what they are. Such a device does not produce a strong light and wind can extinguish its flame. In a world of total darkness, however, their small lights become stronger.
