Not for Man to know the Epochs; but to repent and daily be ready!

Acts 1:7-8
7 He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
Matthew 24: 36-51
36 “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father.

... 42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

It is not up to thoughts; nor Scheme; nor Device; nor numerology of Man, but up to God's will and timing. The real question; are you ready to meet your maker if some unforeseen accident, or calamity, or Tornado should strike you and cut your life short?

We can be so earthly preoccupied wanting to set up our own kingdom on earth; that in the authority of man centered thinking we try to figure out the times, seasons and date of the end times and Jesus' return. Yes, the Father has fixed the times and Epochs, and in his Authority and Sovereign will, it will be ushered in and Jesus will make all things new bringing in the new Heaven and earth.

What is that to you? Make a difference today, by focusing your attention to follow Him today through the power of the Holy Spirit.

But forget about trying to figure out the exact dates and times using numbers and speculations. But rather, concern yourself with being Faithful to His call in your life and rely on his grace to get to know Him now!

Readiness in light of Christ’s Second Coming—though there be delay, be ready!

The Wicked are Discarded like Dross Psalm 119:119

The Wicked are Discarded like Dross Psalm 119:119

115 Away from me, you evildoers,
that I may keep the commands of my God!
116 Sustain me according to your promise, and I will live;
do not let my hopes be dashed.
117 Uphold me, and I will be delivered;
I will always have regard for your decrees.
118 You reject all who stray from your decrees,
for their deceitfulness is in vain.
119 All the wicked of the earth you discard like dross;
therefore I love your statutes.
120 My flesh trembles in fear of you;
I stand in awe of your laws.


The Lord will allow the tares to grow up with the wheat. This is God’s Farm land and He is the Farmer who tends the fields. The wicked will dwell on the earth with the righteous, but only temporarily; once they have filled up the full cup of their wickedness and there is no more hope of repentance; The Lord will discard them like dross! Who will He discard like dross? But those who reject Christ and are self-seeking their own interests in this life. Who are the righteous? But thsoe who trust in Christ for salvation.

Once the dross is discarded you have the pure silver or gold shinning through. And that day will be for all eternity for those whom the Lord has chosen to be purified by the refiner’s fire.

And that, it’s purity will remain in the land, no more dross no more wickedness! Only those who are clothed with Wedding cloths will enter into the banquet. Those who do not have wedding clothes will be cast into the outer darkness where there will be wailing and gnashing of the teeth, and the smoke of their torment will rise forever.

In the meantime, the wicked do dwell amongst the righteous, only for the righteous to be refined and purified in the midst of the wicked, by the blood of Christ.

True riches in Knowing Christ in my life Philippians 3:7-8

True riches in Knowing Christ in my life Philippians 3:7-8

Lord, I would not trade knowing you in my life, for the riches, or wealth of this world! Gold, silver, jewels and abundant wealth in this life, can never compare to knowing you, Jesus, everyday of my life.

So I can be a guest at a royal wedding; and view all the riches and opulence, and turn to it and despise the covet tempter; and Then, turn to Jesus, and say, "Lord, I do not want this", I am glad I have you and I know you, thank you, for being with me."

Philippians 3:7-8 7 But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8 What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ

Proverbs 3:13-18
13 Blessed is the man who finds wisdom,
the man who gains understanding,
14 for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
16 Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
17 Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to those who embrace her;
those who lay hold of her will be blessed.

Love God with all your Life! Mark 12:29

And I am reminded of Jesus' words, regarding the greatest Commandment:
29 “The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”

Vince Lombardi said,"There's only one way to succeed in anything and that is
to give everything." - Vince Lombardi
And did Jesus ever give everything--Indeed He gave His life! and succeeded in doing so, by Rising from the Grave!

Do you want to succeed in God's Eternal Kingdom? Give your life, by dieing to Self, and Confessing with your mouth that Jesus is God, and believe in your Heart that God the Father raised Him from the Dead, and indeed, you shall be saved and succeed forever in God's eternal Kingdom and have Eternal Life in the name of the only begotten Son of God!

Getting Old, Yet God never Changes! Hebrews 13:8

Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
1 Timothy 1:17 "Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen."

God is all sufficient, Omnipresent, Omnipotent and Omniscient! Immutable, unchangeable, immortal, His Love is eternal!
Man is ever changing from young to old! How many times have I heard it said, it is hard getting old. But God is ever Unchanging! It gives me great peace and strength to know I can worship God even as I get old and fade away, for He remains the same-- ever unchanging!

Yet God never changes! What a blessed assurance to rely on our ever--unchanging Creator for Eternal life in His Son, even as I fade away in this life!

I am in Awe of God's unchanging Nature. Immutable,unchangeable,immortal,the only wise God be honor and glory forever and ever!

The Fading Glory of Man:
Man’s glory is like the flowers of the field; their glory fades in the changing of the seasons. Their victories, their fame, their fortunes, their award ceremonies all fade into the back ground of black and white, of faded print and picture. The colors of the picture dimly shine and the print fades to white and gets drowned out in white, till you can barely see the once was: fame and glory.

A voice says, “Cry out.”
And I said, “What shall I cry?”
“All men are like grass,
and all their glory is like the flowers of the field.
7 The grass withers and the flowers fall,
because the breath of the LORD blows on them.
Surely the people are grass.
8 The grass withers and the flowers fall,
but the word of our God stands forever.” Isaiah 40:6-8

How We need to Seek Him Always--He is there Mighty to Save! Psalm 37 Philippians 4:4-7

31Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength;They will mount up with wings like eagles,They will run and not get tired,They will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 43:31

4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.


Psalm 37:23-24 (King James Version)

23The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.

24Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.

39 The salvation of the righteous comes from the LORD;
he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
40 The LORD helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him. Psalm 37

How many times in Scripture does it say Wait on the Lord! Yet, in our haste we make waste and error in our ways. Why is it that we always go to the Lord as a last resort for help! We should go to Him as a first resort for help!

He wants us to go to Him, everyday, all the time, every circumstance of our day, cry out to Him for mercy! He is there to help us, He loves us and wants to deliver us! He delights to helps us in time of need. Indeed, He has no greater joy, in that He delights to glorify Himself in us through His Son, He will never leave us or forsake us! He was deligted to make His name known in me! And He has great Joy when we cry out to Him, Abba, Father!

Yet, we try in our own means and efforts to deliver ourselves, and we make even more of a mess of our situations--O what needless pain we bear, all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer! what a Friend we have in Jesus!

The bottom line, when we try in our own efforts and strength, and act as if God has abandoned us, we walk in Idolatry that are useless for us, that cannot do us any good or rescue us, because they are useless idols of our strength.

I Samuel 12:20 “Do not be afraid,” Samuel replied. “You have done all this evil; yet do not turn away from the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart. 21 Do not turn away after useless idols. They can do you no good, nor can they rescue you, because they are useless. 22 For the sake of his great name the LORD will not reject his people, because the LORD was pleased to make you his own. 23 As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD by failing to pray for you. And I will teach you the way that is good and right

God is indeed near, He was with the Israelites as they traveled from tent to tent, and the Ark of the Covenant traveled with them from Tent to Tent! God is near and stronghold to help in time of need!

There is always time of need in my life. I will wait upon the Lord in time of need, and Indeed! Find that He truly answers with great strength and peace! All because in time of need I took the time to wait upon the Lord and regain new strength and peace! And He answered my prayer beyond all I can ask or imagine!

Rejoice that your name is found written in the Lambs book of life Luke 10:20

"However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” Luke 10:20

Rejoice that your name is found written in the Lambs book of life
The bottom line, there is rejoicing in the Streets of OBL's death, in the physical realm. In the Spiritual Realm, we all must give an account of ourselves before God, and deliverence from Eternal Judgement for all who believe, is found in believing in Christ for Salvation. Everyone must check themselves to be sure there standing is firm before God, by trusting in Christ for Salvation John 3:16 Then rejoicing is seen in our names found written in the Lambs book of life. Luke 10:20.

If we rejoice, we ought to rejoice that God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven and that our names are written in the Lamb's book of life (Luke 10:20). Rejoice that all things here will pass away and one day there will be no more need for armies and warfare.
