I call it ignorance, nothing but ignorance in the world we’re living in, who still believe according to the Bible women shouldn’t lead. 1Timothy 2:12. Passage states that women should learn in quietness and full submission, and that they are not permitted to teach or have authority over men. 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 Instructs women to be silent in the churches. That was then, this is now. If we truly believe and understand in the New Testament the significance of Mary the mother of Jesus; the movement and teachings of Christ himself concerning women, why are we still stock in ignorance? Galatians 3:28 In Christ Jesus there is no longer Jew nor Gentile, slave nor free, male nor female, suggesting a level of equality that includes leadership. Emphasizes equality in Christ.

Jesus came down, gave sight to the blind, make the lame walk, healed the sick…and so on. With all the healing and the breaking of the religious rules Jesus did on the outside for all to see, he did also on the inside of the woman, his mother while he was in her womb. Just like the sins of all came into the world through both Adam and Eve whom through disobedience ate of the forbidden fruit tree. Redemption literally came through the womb of a woman called Mary and the aid of her fiancé Joseph. This time it had nothing to do with obedience, but rather submission and surrendering.

From the beginning of Gabriel annunciation, “Hail Mary” to Mary’s yes, and the birth of Jesus Mary had became conduit of the spirit of God for all women to stand openly and willing to except the Lords Will to be done. And in doing so her blessings felling on all women opening the doors that was shut in ignorance. Mary was the leader in her relationship with Joseph to stand firm in her conviction in doing what she was asked, which was laid upon her heart in accepting whatever would happen to her and Joseph relationship being engaged and now pregnant. Through faith, with bold assurance confronting her fiancé Joseph with her situation, never wavering but waited, most likely prayed to the Lord to speak to her fiancé and make what seems to a bad circumstances acceptable. That’s leadership! Joseph like Adam was ready to give in and walk away from Mary, voiding Gods Will, if it had not been for the prayer and faith of Mary unlike Eve.

Mary became a blessing and a role model to all humanity we can follow by example; her faith, submission, surrender, resilience and vigilance to the Will of the Lord. The conversation Mary with the angel Gabriel showcased her intelligence. Her wisdom, knowledge and understanding; most of all her faith and trust in God. Mary understood her mission as mother to her son Jesus, the son of God, as all women who are pregnant are to. Recognizing the fulfillment of the Grace and Blessings of the Lord in our lives to nurture and car for all children whether we bring them forth by birth, adaption, surrogacy…even being a teacher. Whatever your role in life, whereby you are a caregiver for children or a child, you are mother, even if not called mother. Mary carried out her mission with wisdom, knowledge, understanding, faith and courage. Like a champion facing being divorce, even to be stone for the shame to her parents, fiancé Joseph and religious people of that time even to the entire world who can now call her Blessed Mother.

We are to acknowledge the orchestrated work of the Lord. He pulled man out of the ground (earth) and now he planted his seed in that which came from the earth, from the man he created to wash away sin and make good all impurities with that which caused the fall of man. People, the forbidden fruit has been a poison to us through Eve and through Mother Mary conception, Jesus the antidote for us all.

Without a Mary there cannot be a Jesus. Think for a moment, why didn’t God pull the man Christ Jesus out of the ground like he did Adam? The God, who’s the God of the impossible made possible, who can do all things. God made it so that all women like Mary who are obedient, and accept the the Lord’s Will just not in carrying the Lord’s children, but nurturing, faithfulness in training them up in his way that they never depart. The Lord’s presence is ever so close to us when in preparing to become a parent, spiritually, physically and mentally. All the changes that takes place within and out of the body when pregnant is the time we can really see the hands on God like the potter, Isaiah 64:8 and Jeremiah 18:1-6). Sorry men, but this is intimacy of molding by the hands of God in every detail excluded you, because God is the giver of life, you may have planted the seed, but the entire growth and shaping is by his hand. God creates the good and the bad, all things.

If women are good enough according to Proverbs 22:6 to teach the children about the Lord, training them up in the way they should go; and when they are old, they will not depart from it. “Then why would we be not good enough to lead?” Men can’t have children and I don’t believe God is about to change that rule of conception concerning Adam and Eve back then, neither for now nor the future to come. But the rule to where a woman stands with him was made great and perfectly care through Mary, mother of Jesus.

How ironic that the world was destroyed because angels had children with women in the days of Noah and now God has chosen to take a woman also to have his only begotten son. The difference is God asked Mary and she said yes. In the garden of Eden the woman Eve was manipulated and deceived by the devil. God had set the example for man and the angels to follow, by asking for Mary’s permission and he’s God, it says a lot about who our God is.

What I love about Mary is that she had chosen God whom she couldn’t have seen or touch, over her fiancé Joseph. “Talk about putting God first, this is proof people of true faithfulness. And Joseph, unlike Adam who was placed in front of Eve, is now placed beside Mary in carrying out God’s Will. He wasn’t to rule over her, but through her got a closer to God when he had the dream to accept her as his wife regardless of her pregnancy, Matthew 1:18-25. Not only was Joseph a stepfather he was also what I considered a step-husband, he stood in the place of God as Mary’s earthly husband being led by God for her and baby Jesus protection. Joseph would not have been able to handle the situation with Mary without the presence of God. Joseph was only going to go through the emotions of marriage according to tradition, but God give him something greater, a challenge of his faith to be led and directed as Mary herself had to in making sure every step they had to make was to ensure the Will of God be done for baby Jesus to be born and be safe. God obviously had to take Mary as his wife as an example to us all. Understand that she was a virgin, like a first fruit and animals without blemishes as required for sacrifice in those days.

Joseph actually was going to divorce Mary quietly because of her pregnancy. Once again like Eve in the garden woman is portrayed as disobedient to God’s laws. Eve ate of the forbidden tree and now Mary the adulteress, but just because this time it is with God not Satan it meant that God was bringing together or should I say reconciling man to himself in a great way by both Mary and Joseph participating in unity to fulfill God’s Will; not to go against it. They had done it because he said it. Showing a change of course other than repeating Adam and Eve ways.

This time together they had gotten it right unlike Adam and Eve. Both Adam and Joseph did according to their wives. So who’s the true leader. We are to be observant to the relationship of the pastors, preachers, bishops…any heads of a church and their significant other; watch their connection with each other and see how effective a leader they both run the congregation together as parents running the house who loves and support each other with their children.

“If a man can be a Pope I don’t see any reason why a woman can’t be.” Why would Peter who denied Jesus three times be placed above the mother of His child? They were both equally loved and blessed by Jesus.

From the beginning of time starting with Eve women had shown leadership. She stood up to the serpent with no fear and asked questions to be wise. God didn’t punish Eve he tried to give Adam his first born the role of leadership. He tried to position Adam, but it was a fail back then, but through Jesus became successful. Genesis 3:12 Adam tells God, “the woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” Yeah, and God thought it to be right to choose Adam? Makes it seem like God doesn’t know what he’s doing. God told both Adam and Eve not to eat of the tree, figure if anything Adam should have reminded Eve what God had said, but no he just ate. Eve was doing her natural duty in finding food for them to eat. Think for a moment if the Lord had prepared a table for them they wouldn’t have eaten from the tree. Neither did he fence around the tree for them not to access it. They both were at fault, reason for them both being cast out of Eden. They both couldn’t lead, because they were like the blind leading the blind. But through Jesus and His mother Mary God found balance in respect to leading. It takes both man and woman, Amen!

A blessing as small as a mustard seed we are to share it from heart to heart with each other. I remember hearing this as a child in church. God is not a selfish God. His heart is open to all, the good and the bad. He says to those who try their best, to be and do good, “all that I have is yours already: the grace, power and authority…and most of all my unconditional love. To those who are bad, “seek, knock, and ask. I am your doctor, come to me for healing.” God is not seeking for perfection in humanity; we have to at least show some effort we’re trying to do what’s right. If you’re heavy laden with burden, Matthew 11:28- 30“ Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

Sometimes we have to get over ourselves. “This woe is me attitude got to stop.” Many times it’s ourselves that gets in the way of God’s business. Humanity can be so nasty and cruel to one another, they hurt each other to the core of their being. As a human being, unaware when doing that to someone, you’re being a vessel for the devil, carrying out his evil deeds, especially unable to catch yourself because it makes you feel good. You feel good to hurt or see someone who has hurt you get hurt themselves.

It’s devastating when you’re pierced in your heart for your love by doing good for others or just helping out someone; following Jesus, doing good wherever you go. If you’re truly faithful and is led by the the Holy Spirit of God within, you can do like Jesus did and say what Jesus acknowledged to us on the cross and said, “forgive them for they know not what they do.” We are given great power, and that power is to know when to reject and restrain from using it because of the pain, hurt, and rejection for doing good, inflicted on our souls.

What do you consider as being good? We can be angry, but not sin, Ephesians 4: 26-27 “Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, and give no opportunity to the devil.” Romans 12:19-21 “Do not take revenge, but leave room for God’s wrath , for it is written “vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” On the contrary: “I f your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this , you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. When we just can’t forgive, the bitterness, envy, jealousy and hatred has overtaken our souls. When we can’t get past the hurt, pain and the feeling of uncertainty of ever trusting again, because of the brokenness of one’s spirit, remember Jesus.

In this world we’re living in today there’s so much pain and suffering; regardless of the many advantages we are now capable of achieving and experience compare to our ancestors beginning with the life and death of Jesus whom had prophesied in John 14:12 “ Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father.” And so far look at the things we were able to accomplish: medicines, technology, science and spirituality…we’ve come a long way and yet sin is still a battle we continue to struggle with, and can’t seem to overcome.

What is the driving force in your soul? Is it love, commitment, obedience…fear or hurt? Don’t allow your emotions to lead you. Matthew 26:41 “The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak,” Jesus said. But it is through Jesus our flesh is now made strong by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen!

He came into the world to be the final sacrifice; atonement for our sins, lest we forget. He didn’t come to judge or condemn the world, but save it. Love, unconditional love and grace we’re not deserving of we are given through him and yet we still sin. The Lamb of God without blemishes was nailed to the cross on Calvary. His the sacrifice took place, as the angel stood around weeping, singing and praising him, with their swords drawn in hopes of no interference by Satan the devil who would try to stop him from fulfilling God’s will. Swiftly the Lord God lifted Jesus’s spirit out the body and he descended to hell; when the earth was darkened, it was because the light which manifested his presence left the earth for a while to show he was power and authority, the son of God. He entered hell dragging his light with him taking all Satan demons binding them and replacing them with the saints of God who was being held captive. The earthquake as the fight between Jesus, the angels and Satan and all his demons, the opening up and bringing forth the tombs and life of all the dead saints. The veil itself was a partition( division) of old to all God people except the high priest. Jesus has now replaced the old veil, becoming a bridge, a joining of both the Devine and humanity. The veil in the temple was torn, symbolizes Jesus spirit was actively moving throughout the world breaking away the old traditions for the replacements of the new. Through the spirit of Jesus and his sacrifice, his blood, accessibility for ALL had been given to draw closer to God to communicate with him. Jesus blood replaced all the animal blood in which the veil was darkened with. Jesus blood became the new clear veil, giving access to ALL humanity through him. Jesus has now become the true veil, John 14:6 “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Having victory over Satan, conquering hell, Jesus had gotten the keys to hell letting out all captives Saints of God by Satan and his demons. The graves were opened and many of God’s people who had died came to life by Jesus death, and was seen by others. Though we were dead in sin, no matter what through Jesus life death and resurrection though we die we shall be resurrected through him.

I remember as a child my first experience with the season of Lent and its impact on my life, from Ash Wednesday to Good Friday; not eating of flesh(meat). It was a wonderful experience which came natural to me. I had no problem going without food, praying…better than Christmas, for all the present, I’d looked forward to it. I had prophetic dreams and visions from a child to an adult. Besides fasting, praying, abstinence and atonement for sin leading up to Easter, I was told we are to get closer to Jesus, and trace his step, and what I’ve learned is unbelievable.

Jesus told us, “ask and you shall receive, seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you,” Matthew 7:7. I have learned that whatever you ask, seek and knock, especially when it concerns drawing nearer to God, God answers. So in our asking, seeking and knocking let God always be first and everything else last. Matthew 6:33 “Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all things shall be added unto you.

After years of my participating in the season of Lent the traditional way I decided under the circumstances of the world we’re living in today I would still fast, pray, but I wanted to trace Jesus steps by drawing near to him in prayer and fasting. I needed to understand what’s it’s like to be more like Jesus and what I found out is Jesus never wanted us to follow him by being sacrifice on the cross, but to love, have compassion, help others in need, not to judge or condemn…and the knowledge to forgive when wronged. “The Love of God which passes all understanding,” To love, yet still, is the greatest sacrifice in the midst of hatred for no reason, falsely accused, picked on, disliked…I was told. My faith has to be in God’s ability to hear and answer my prayer, not necessarily my actions, but my obedience to His will and purpose. To listen attentively to His voice in this noisy, disruptive and corrupted world. Like Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane knowing to accept the cup and accepting it’s not my will, but God’s will to be done, Matthew 26:39

Hosea 6:6 For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings. We have to be careful trying to do God’s business in our own way and strength, for this reason we get ourselves into trouble with the enemy(devil). “We’ve got to wait patiently on the Lord who will strengthen us, and to be still and know that He the Lord is God: it is He that hath made us, and not we ourselves.” Psalm 27:14, 46:10 and 100:3.

In some ways those of us who truly love the Lord with all our hearts, mind, body and soul, like Jesus being oneness with the Father we also have to follow him in being in oneness with him. We suffer in many ways like Jesus for being and doing good. Not the good that is in our sight, but the good in the spirit of Jesus. We may not be placed upon a cross, but we might as well be for the pain and heart aches we endured for goodness sake. 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. God never gives us more than we can handle, but the spirit is willing and the flesh is weak. We give into fears, doubts and the weakness of the flesh, in all temptation and provocation, by the enemy.

Jesus is all man in the flesh we can see, but all God in the spirit we can’t see. John the Baptist was the door to the kingdom even Jesus walked through, when being baptized by him. Jesus the key: the manifestation of the purpose and will of Gad; the living, walking manifestation of the law of God. No man can say it’s impossible as a man to obey and be subjected to God will and purpose when Jesus born of man has shown us it can be done. The excuse that Jesus being a deity made it all possible is lie, because we die and resurrected in him. Through him by the power and authority of the Almighty we can do all things in faith. We can walk on water knowing his hand is stretched forth to us if we believe and don’t even entertain in our thoughts of falling.

The blood of Jesus on the cross still works because every good deeds when prosecuted by ingratitude, for all the sacrifice it takes to do good for the love of God, like being sacrificed on the cross, many hearts, mind, body and souls are bleeding remaining in Christ, holding steadfast until he returns. In this world there are people of good character who follows Jesus wholeheartedly, truthfully, righteously who endure long suffering for the love of God. Following through on the word of Jesus to his disciple Peter, “if you love me feed my sheep, if you love me tend my lambs.” The blood flow has remained in those who are true to the will and purpose of God for ALL humanity as Jesus did, showing no favouritism of people.

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. This is about a world in crisis and the God send our light and salvation. Salvation has come (Jesus) and never left. We are the ones who drifted away, for our own will and purpose being overcome by sin. Once again the world is in crisis and we must remember Jesus who promised to never leave us neither forsake us, he will be with us even unto the end of the age. He’s here with us in spirit. I look to Jesus and he looks back with his hand stretching forth to me. The veil has been torn so we can all have access to the Lord, take advantage of it in these trials and tribulations times in the world. He hears and answers prayers so believe when it is said, “this to shall pass.” In everything there’s a reason for such a season, and in this time we are living in is for us to draw nearer to God. There are seasons we go through to learn, evolve, and shift…know that God Alway has a plan and is in control. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 There’s a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven. Amen

Woman define: “an adult female person” Femininity: the fact or quality of having characteristics that are traditionally thought to be typical of or suitable for a woman (Cambridge Dictionary) In other words the typical stereotype, to be a wife, cleaning, cooking, and having children. But God had a life changing plan for all of humanity through a faithfulness, courageous and strong will woman who answered yes to His calling on her life for His will and purpose through her.

It all began with Luke 1:26-38 The Annunciation To Mary. The angel Gabriel came to Mary and told her she has found favour with God. She’s going to conceive a child and call him Jesus. Now being a virgin, she ask how was it going to be possible seeing that she hadn’t been with a man. Even though Gabriel told her to fear not, nothing about her questions or attitude seems to have shown any sort of fear or intimidation. She spoke with Gabriel as though he was a normal person to conversate with. The most important statement Mary said to the angel Gabriel is, “Behold the handmaiden of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word.” Look at the difference, God said King David was a man after His own heart and He sent Gabriel to tell Mary she’s favoured. This is a problem because it makes David to be more like God and Mary is approved. Do you understand the meaning and interpretation according to man? It’s making the woman inferior and the man superior. What a lie!

God is almighty and powerful. In Genesis 2:7 KJV He formed man of the dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature. Why would He send His angel Gabriel to ask the permission of a woman to impregnate her, I thought. He’s God, as he pulled woman out of man by his rib, according to scriptures, why then He couldn’t pull a man out of a woman? Why did He not pull a rib from her also instead of the woman have to go through nine months to bring forth this man. It would still have been a part of her. He’s God; he could have done anything to create half humanity and deity instead of using a woman. I believe He did it because woman from beginning with Eve according to the Bible had shown true leadership and intelligence, hence dealing with the serpent and his cunning. She had asked questions to be wise and not once give an excuse for her action, but spoke the truth when asked by God if they had eaten of the forbidden fruit. Unlike Adam who blamed Eve in Genesis 3:12 “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree and I ate.” God told them both not to eat of the forbidden tree, Genesis 2:17. Scripture declared that Eve saw that the fruit was good for food, (she had began to show the expected role of a wife, in looking for sustenance for both her and her husband, while he slept) pleasing to the eye and also desirable for gaining wisdom, Genesis 3:6. Seems like Eve was the boss and Adam just did as he was told by her, disregarding God’s rules. God had called to Adam, “where are you?” Not Eve. Making it clearly understandable that he was to be in charge and responsible for his wife, Eve. “The last shall be first and the first last,” is what comes to mind when I read this according to Jesus, Matthew 20:16.

I believe Women through the conception of Mary can now stand in equality to man, especially in the fight against the wickedness and evil, of the devil. Through the power and authority of God by the conception of Mary, all women are empowered to fulfill God purpose and will in equality to man. Even if we don’t have children we are all Mary’s in making the world a better place according to will and purpose of God. A game changer, we’re all responsible for God’s children and creation. “I am my brothers and sisters keeper, nurturing and taking care of all the creations of God. You don’t have to be a biological mother, you’re loving, nurturing and compassionate…to others, animals, creatures and the well being of planet earth.

This one for all women who’s the matriarch of the family holding it together in spite of the trials and tribulations of family life. The woman that rocks steady in the face of turbulence storms in life for being what God has created her to be the feminine(woman). A woman was never created to be the footstool of a man, but his companion at his side, making them equal in fulfilling God’s will and purpose. The resilient, vigilant, strong, courageous, intelligent…and most of all, virtuous woman of God; created in the image and likeness of her Father God, is to be acknowledged and excepted as equal.

Beaten down, left to feel worthless and insignificant is nothing but the lie of the devil. When the Bible referred to both genders it says man, “why?” Because it’s always been about strength when it comes to masculinity. This is the same reason I believe man wrote or interpreted the Bible for their own will to manipulate their authority as head and subject woman as to be beneath them, always referring to God as a man. What if God deliberately created man and woman as parts of His/Her spirit manifesting on the outside as two entity, but together really is one in His/Her likeness. If we can only understand we all possess strengths in different ways, man is by how much he can physically carry and woman is emotionally and physically, especially with conception and giving birth. This is our ignorance, not understanding in the eyes of God we are equal. Unity is the greatest strength. We are Gods perfect fit puzzle. Not one part of our anatomy, especially for the purpose of conception and birthing is an error, everything fits correctly. For this purpose the man has a penis and the woman a vagina. One is a giver and the other the taker, but together when making love joined in one spirit this when the manifestation of God’s creative power is within humanity is expressed and revealed when conception takes place.

In retrospect equality for both man and woman is proven because they both holds the responsibility for sin in the world; they are born and then die, and through Jesus has redemption and eternal life. Even if you’re not religious, then think on this for a moment, can a man have a child without a woman or a woman without a man? How would this world continue to replenish humanity, if this was not God’s creative plan from the beginning. Just like the seed needs the soil and both the soil and seed needs the sun and the rain for to grow—none is greater or less, if all is required for the process of growth.

A woman should never be treated like a child, property or slave to any man. If God gives us the ability of free will where He/She is concerned, why then would any man see it reasonable to take this right from their fellow man/woman. God never created us greater or less than, but equal.

Thank God for the many women who in the past who has shown strength in standing up for the liberties and rights of women. We are not to be subjected to the one thing that defines our role as a woman when we are more. Being a wife, a mother, cook, cleaner… is not all we are born or labeled to be as a woman, when in reality we have been proven to be more, even being a wife, mother and homemaker, we are brilliant in multitasking taking care of our families is like running a big business. A woman can even hold down the fort in the absence of our husband(man). When a father is not present, either busy working, left his wife, died, went off to war…or whatever, a woman especially with children shows herself not just strong but powerful, especially if she’s a woman of faith. Her task for the day is never ending, but she’d get it done even sometimes with the tears running down her face. This is strength to run a house, take care of children and a husband and as in this present time the woman also works; making it even more challenging. Yet a man who has such a wife should honour and respect her especially coming home form a hard day work and dinner is hot and ready on the table regardless. I give credit to all single dads who now understands what’s it’s like for all single and married mothers when taking care of children, the house and work. How times has changed and still ignorance remains for some men in the treatment of women.

Look how long Queen Elizabeth reign on the throne of England without any catastrophe happening to her kingdom. No man can ever succeed like that, seventy years. And I remembered watching a documentary on her life, she was at the age of twenty-one when she said, “my whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service” and concluded with, “God help me to make good my vow.” She was not yet Queen only taken the throne at the age of twenty-five after her father’s death. Maybe there are other Queens in the world like Queen Elizabeth that is not known world wide, but her legacy in one that is written in the history books I believe for generations to come. Queen Elizabeth who was given the chance to reign, proven how the power of God can work through anyone, man or woman to fulfill His will and purpose.

Every woman still living in bondage of man, I want you to recognize that through Jesus, John 8:3-7 The stoning of the woman who was accused of committing adultery, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” Luke 13:11-13 “Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.” The woman at the well, whom Jesus requested a drink from and told her he’ll give her water which will never make her thirsty again. John 4:5-30 Jesus may have walked with only man disciples according to what man has written in the interpretation of the scriptures, but these brief mentions of these impactful woman and the others I have not mentioned, are to empower the movement of women not just for the world, but for acknowledgment of the importance of women being part the integral movement of the Kingdom setting them free from the miseducation of the position women plays in our world as written and interpreted.

We as children of God are to be emboldened when following Jesus. To acknowledge and be like Jesus when he said, “to see me is to see the father,” John 14:9. The only man who ever lived we should want to emulate is Jesus our Lord and saviour. Don’t you get it? There’s no other that can take his place as a true representation of God, we all should be following. If we’re following the way of Jesus, we need not cry, “peace, love, mercy, forgiveness, compassion, righteousness, truth…where’s your existence, or why has God removed your power. We are to be possessing the true power of God through our oneness with being water baptized, Holy Ghost filled through and in Jesus. Have you picked up your cross and began following him?

Why has fear of the worldliness now incapacitated our soul? Have we lost our zeal for God, do we no longer reverence him as our ancestors did? As Jesus had called to his disciples Peter, James and John to keep watching with him for one hour in the Garden of Gethsemane Matthew 26:40-45. Are we asleep now as they were back then in earth final hours as we have known it like the disciples after Jesus imparted the Father will and purpose. Do you feel at one with Jesus or an outsider? Then the devil has deceived you children of God. If you were not fixated on Jesus, and looked away for a second then and only then, you became vulnerable to the attacks of satanic forces. And we are under attacks by demons, powers and principalities, spiritual wickedness in high places. Those who has ears to hear let them hear what the Lord is saying in every situation going on in our world today. And the eyes to see, let them see the deception that’s going on also. Satan is not try to make the world better, or great. He’s out to gain access to vulnerable with sweet talks of manipulation and the evidence of nothing, but staged propaganda to deceive everyone regardless of intellect or social status. The devil is out to gain leverage by whatever means. We’re dealing with the Antichrist and false prophet on the world stage.

Jesus is returning, but this time we must prove how well learnt are we. Have we been following his Father will and purpose, are we truly on the Lord side in our deeds and action towards each other and all Gods creations. Are preaching His truths and righteousness; winning souls for the kingdom. Can you say with bold assurance, “I love God with all my mind, heart and soul and my neighbours as myself.” Jesus is no longer coming with Cupid on his shoulder this time, but with the sword in his hand, calling for all those who are on the Lords side and to destroy evil once and for all. He’s coming to separate the goats from the sheep. Whose side are you on? Before you answer make sure you understand what it means to follow Jesus and to fulfill the will and purpose of the Heavenly Father.

When contemplating standing up for righteousness and truth, begin with the Ephesians 6:11-18Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil… Psalm 27:1-14 The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life ; of whom shall I be afraid?When the wicked, even my mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell… Psalm 37:1-40 (25) Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity, for they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the Lord, and do good….I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteousness forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. Psalm 73:1-28 (17) Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I the end of evil people… The Lord is on the side of those who try to live according to His will and purpose.

Whiles the wicked are emboldened with their wicked ways and the righteous is standing down. I know God has a plan. Though silently shackled and enslaved by sin, don’t worry, all this is going to come to an end. The spirit of the Lord is here with us if we truly believe. Remember Jesus promised to never leave us nor forsake us. The comforter, helper, Holy Spirit: teacher, advocate is with us. Do you believe?

The battle is not ours but the Lord, “stand still and see the salvation of the Lord.” Our fight is not with weapons, but on our knees in prayer and fasting. This is not a natural fight we are dealing with, but evil forces. No amount of diplomacy, love or a show of kindness will move this force. According to Matthew 7:6 “Do not give dogs what’s is holy, and do not cast pearls before swine.” This is what the fight is like. To win this fight we must stand behind Jesus. Some of us are equipped for this fight with knowledge, and wisdom of the Holy Spirit and must fight to prepare the way for the coming of Lord like John the Baptist.

Something is going to happen that’s going to leave us speechless, truth is going to be revealed. All this craziness is going on in our world is going to come to an end. God is still and will always be in control, lest we forget.

As a child of God I’ve always believed in speaking the truth and being honest, especially to God. It was January 6, 2021 when all that I believed in as a child of God that should prevail in the representation of the goodness of God in humanity was ripped apart within my soul when I saw the insurrection on the Capital of the United States. It didn’t end there, the then out going president refused to concede and have a peaceful transfer of power. I watched the television in tears as the new in coming president was left without the respect of the former president in keeping of the tradition of a peaceful transfer. He wasn’t invited to the Whitehouse neither on the day of the inauguration in for tea. From that day I felt in my spirit it wasn’t a good sign; this was not going to be good, and things were going to change drastically for all humanity as we known it. The world was watching just as I, but I cried, pouring out my soul to God. What echoed in my spirit was all the people who were injured mentally, physically, emotionally and died, on January 6, 2021 insurrection and let’s not also forget the calling to hang the Vice president.

“Chaos, nothing but chaos, and the entire world started mimicking all that happened on that most heart wrenching day, for those who have eyes to see can understand the influence America has on all nations, till other leaders started to act like the former president. Everything representation of Jesus was removed and like the Antichrist (not Christ like) was now its replacement. So for me love was replaced by hate, revenge and animosity, no compassion, no forgiveness, no mercy, and as for godliness: a form, a pretence not a true reverence or fear of the almighty, we’re in trouble, serious trouble. And now like a domino effect since the year 2021 America consequences for not being able to keep law and order domestically because has fallen as the most powerful influential nation in the world. For all the calamity, division, and devilishness that has taken place in America between the political atmosphere, America has fallen as the representative of God and being united, I honestly believe. And it has nothing to do with abortion, or sexual orientation…but the representation of being Christ like.

Yes the incoming president is chosen by God for such a time like this the lawlessness of the world and the complete disregard to the teachings of Christ. The fact that all this evil has taken place by the incoming president and he seems to be untouchable for prosecution for his crimes, the real judgement will come from the God for all the world to see. God had closed day the door on this former president for a reason, but being the God he is, ask and you shall receive so the people asked so now they got what they wanted. I believe that the Lord saw the great desire of certain people that they were willing like the day of the insurrection to sell their soul to the devil for what they want and commit a catastrophe worst than January 6, 2021 to the nation.

When the results of election 2024 had taken place I found my prostrate before my alter in tears crying out to Lord, “why would he allow this, what about the children, what lesson is this going to teach them? You can break the laws with no consequences? You can do whatever you want and get away with it? Then why am I trying so hard to follow and respect the laws, especially your commandment, when today obviously no one doesn’t care about it.” The degree of lawlessness is rampant and I feel like a square peg try to fit in a round hole when trying to survive. this life. Not being afraid to die, I prayed that God would take me sooner than later, because I don’t want to live in a lawless world. I love order and peace, not chaos, lawlessness and I definitely abhor ungodliness. But this is the world we’re living in today.

So I prayed for Jesus to please hurry and come. I heard the voice of God respond to my cry. I was told to look up in the Bible the story of the bronze snake and what it represents, Numbers 21:4-9. The incoming president is the symbol of the Lord’s judgement on the nation. We the people choose those to rule over us who are just like us. Remember when the Israelites instead of God wanted an earthy king and God answered by anointing Saul to be the first king, 1 Samuel 8. Have we ever desired in our hearts any leaders with the likes of Jesus to rule over us? No! We want who we can identify with and who says the things we want to hear, the blind leading the blind. I get it, this is for us to see God’s strength, his power, will, purpose and control will stand regardless of man thinking we’re in control without him. I understand this is what we call upon ourselves whenever we’re drift away, far away from God. How well learnt are we? Has sin so incapacitated us that we have lost sight of the will and purpose of God for humanity and like Satan moved on to our own agendas. We can change all we want, but note God is unchangeable and we got to stick to His plan, not ours.

On this inauguration day my soul still quivers because I know trial and tribulations is to come like never before, is about to take place in our world. And I am completely walking in faith and not by sight trusting God’s will be done. “Help my unfaithfulness please, whenever my faith starts to falter my God, my Lord and redeemer. I trust you, but I struggles with man, and his intentions. I prayer Lord, may your continued mercy be upon all us wretched sinners.

Anytime lawlessness abounds, God has a plan. And everything is set in motion according to his plan for our world. There are too many faithful saints in our world, for evil to prevail without a purpose I was told. Our only salvation comes from God and God alone.

Desperation for change can be costly. And without change, many of us can find ourselves in a difficult situation/predicament, so change can be necessary to get out. Change can be profitable, desirable, and at times a necessity…positive or negative, all depending on how it moves us forward. It derives from how we are re-evaluating the circumstances and situations in our lives. But we can be blindsided by our determination, desire and actions we’re willing to take for betterment in our lives which is mostly predicated on finances, for our survival and wellbeing, or something selfish. And that very change we’re pleading for can come with conflicts, devastation, disruption and destruction of our norms, instead of the improvements to our lives as we so desire. Like a woman giving birth, with every contraction it’s closer to the final stage of birthing so change can be. We never stop to think, in our great desperation, what the consequences can be, weighing the pros and cons. We must think to ourselves, “is our health, wellbeing, the concerns for ourselves, others and the world we live in more than money, accolades and power and control?

The driving force behind change can never be simply because you have choices; choice for something or someone that sounds like a good idea. Change should be, because you don’t have any other alternative. If we didn’t have free will then Jesus’ birth on earth and all that he accomplished in us should have been sufficient for us to have changed from sinners to saints. No more living with this bondage of sin within us. We as human beings are resilient, if we set our minds upon a thing, especially in desperation, nothing can stop us. And when we had great reverence, faith and fear in God people got married and didn’t divorce back in the day like they do now. Commitment is what enables us to get through the storms knowing it shall pass, it’s enough that the storm is disruptive to the things on the outside, we mustn’t allow it to penetrate the inside also. Having many choices can only lead to greed, confusion, and or disruption. Queen Elizabeth reigned on the thrown for 70 years, no one could take her place and regardless things were good or bad she still remained and the people had no other choice but to accept the good times and the bad as she was still their Queen. No matter how bad things may get, it never lasts. Like going through the four seasons, we can’t choose the one we favour to begin with, we must go through the chronological stages and accept the change when it comes even if it’s not our favourite season. Sometimes we must look at life the same way. We must stop throwing in the towel just because we have a choice, instead of fighting to the end.

I believe the reason for sin being so dominant in our world today is because after Jesus’ life, death and resurrection, for some of us we are not desperate enough for that change to have affected us, we have too many choices. If it wasn’t for the free will of choice, Jesus would definitely be our only alternative, nothing and no one else would be.

Whenever we desire change without praying to the Lord, who is our salvation, provider…lover of our soul for what we so desire for in our lives, that he may send an angel or come himself, unknowingly sometimes we get exactly what we want, that change alright, because of our freedom to choose. And looking back in retrospect when all hell has broken loose in our lives then, and then alone, we realize, or should realize we got what we asked for, the change, especially when you had a quiet and peaceful life before. Believing anyone or anything besides God can be the answer to our problems as Children of God, is blasphemous. “Christian, we should know our faith always belongs to God, and God alone, first, as the answer to our prayers.” The devil is wicked enough to place himself as the answer to our prayers, looking at us as being so incredulous. He did it to Adam and Eve and yet, has never stopped trying, but Jesus came. We’ve got to acknowledge and understand God’s power in us, through Jesus to overcome the deception and lies of the devil.

Wanting change is good, but is it purposeful, or self-gratifying? Because self gratification only lasts so long before finding yourself lonely and empty. Purposeful: you don’t lay down to die when situations get hard, you’re called to destiny way beyond self. This makes for the understanding that what we desire sometimes, is not good enough for our soul; the reason it seems like God has turned a deaf ear to our prayers, really is him preventing us from a fall too hard for us to recover mentally and a brokenness that in the end we put the blame on Him.

If humanity can get the understanding our Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever, Hebrews 13:8 If we’re in Christ, truly in Christ I believe change is not recognized or desired, it’s let it be and it is done moment. Change is a worldly concern. When God is all you need, nothing in the world is as relevant as people’s desires. You can live poor and still be rich, you can be sick and still healthy enough to be functional in society, blind, but see beyond darkness that there’s a real light in the world, deaf to world, but can hear the voice of the Holy Spirit in your heart and mind, lame legs to stand in the natural world, but running towards the Father.

We must put our trust and faith in God whenever we decide change is a necessity for our lives. God should be at the centre of our choices for change.

Pestilence, pandemic, old illnesses returning earthquake, tornado, mudslides, all truths are being revealed and we’re afraid, nothing is hidden anymore, demonic attacks on the believers, faith and fear of God is no longer, negative and positive clashing, goats being separated from the sheep, world wars and rumours of it to come, lawlessness, lies is now truth, deception right before our eyes and we’re fearful to confront it, every country is going through some sort of political unrest and in fighting, over power and money…sin is just rampant. The devil set it in motion and its humanity is running with it. The Antichrist is a spirit that’s out to destroy humanity, taking the obedience God out of us, to prevent us from following everything Jesus taught and manifested here on earth. Most of all Jesus who is the manifestation of love, truth, righteousness…all that represents God. He is God love for humanity and the manifestation of written laws of God within us through baptism; when we couldn’t be obedient by hearing.

I can’t help but notice there’s a negative force moving upon the earth since the pandemic, till now humanity has been torn and divided. Being selfish, wicked, slanderous, and inconsiderate…now considered having strength. Money, fame and adoration of others are more important than any righteous standing with and for the Lord. The using of the Lord is only to serve our purpose to be seen and behold as a believer . Love has gone so cold, who can you trust? It’s become a fight within and without to be good and do good; every time you do good evil presents itself, causing confusion and fear, that the temptation to be and do bad seems to work better than good. People are gravitating to evil than good, even Gods chosen are falling to this. Our soul is on fire, but not for God, but to make ourselves happy at whatever cost, that we’ll forsake good, truth and righteousness. We’re living in a dog eat dog world, that’s what it has became. God hasn’t left us we have left him for our own desires and lust, whether it be money, power, fame, idols…giving access to devil in our lives.

What is God up to when it seems like He’s allowing good people to suffer for no reason. It feels like we are being tested beyond capacity. But like Job, it is our faith that’s going to help us overcome and be restored. No matter what is thrown at us, keep the faith, “don’t you dear curse God to die.” But many of us today has already cursed God in our choices to give into the devil doing what’s wrong, not even worried about our standing with God, and the consequences. We’re caught up with the world and man, rather to stand faithful in God. We’re all guilty, but the time is coming when all else will fail us and there’s no other for deliverance, or we find ourselves hopeless in a weary and destitute place, who else can we turn to, but our Lord, and saviour Jesus.

It may feel like God has forsaken us, turning a deaf ear to our prayers, cries and pleading. God is not cruel; Jesus is knocking at our door in this season of our lives we’re in, that we may let him in. Like Adam and Eve the world today is in a mess, because of our disobedience and choices we’ve made once again for ourselves. Satan only had that one chance with God to prove how wrong he’s about the faithful in God, as with Job. I don’t believe he’s at it again, because Jesus our mediator, lawyer, advocate, deliverer, our light and salvation, to whom we are baptized in oneness; through him and in him we possess the victory over every attempt of the wickedness and schemes of the devil, if we can remain totally firm in our faith. Trust that when we fall God’s there to catch us; help us back on our feet. “It may be dark, but Jesus is the only light to guided us if we truly believe and trust, “there’s no other.”

Ecclesiastes 3:18 “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: (2) a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; (3) a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; (4) a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; (5) a time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; (6) a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to throw away; (7) a time to tear, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; (8) a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.”

We’re in the season of breaking down, weeping, mourning, war…being far from God and suffering the consequences. We like the Israelites when delivered from Pharaoh and resided in the wilderness complaining and rebelling against Gods guidance and love; after all He had done, setting us free from the bondage; yet provoking God to angry with our ingratitude, selfish attitude and unquenchable desire and lust for worldliness.

Jesus came to deliver us and was savagely beaten, tortured, spat upon…crucified for doing good. Not one sin had he ever committed. I felt like God was saying to humanity in His sending Jesus to help us, “I love you with an everlasting love and compassion for I created you, and you’re flawed and I would do whatever I must to make you whole again. It’s my fault I created you so vulnerable that sin infected you. I the Lord will right the wrong, just trust and have faith in me. Reach for me, my hands is reaching for you.” So people, can we please choose and stop being like the disciples on the boat while Jesus was asleep on the boat, Matthew 8:23-27 The disciples was bring the storm with all their worldliness of fear, doubt and mindset…instead being like Jesus, faithful.

Don’t be fooled anyone who’s a true servant of God or trying to walk the right path is visited by the devil like Jesus being tempted forty days and night in the wilderness after being baptized by John, Matthew 3:13- 4:1-11. The devil will hit you so hard when you’re on your Father’s business that you’ll want to do is give up, never to try again. But you know when God’s strength is made perfect in your weakness, 2 Corinthians 12:9, whenever you find yourself still standing struggling, but yet somehow find the strength to do His will, regardless. You know for a fact it’s not your in your power you’re operating, because you have already given up and is crippled in your soul with fear and doubt to complete the calling, “but if it hadn’t been for the Lord.” Psalm 34:19 Many are the affliction of the right: but the Lord deliver him out of them all.

Don’t get it twisted either: God would also allow the antagonist (devil) to do whatever He, God would permits him to do for His purpose. Take a look at Judas, one of Jesus faithful disciples, Satan was allowed to possess him after he Judas began to feel away about Jesus when the woman with the alabaster box came to anoint Jesus, all he could do was worry about money, John 13:3 allowing Satan to get access within him to deliver up Jesus to be crucified. Matthew 16:21-23 When Jesus explained to his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem to suffer many things—and be killed. Peter rebuked him and Jesus turned to him and said, “get behind me, Satan!” You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.” This prove that God with all the darkness that’s happening in the world today as we see it and how it’s affect our lives, like Peter was so are we afraid, but God is telling us to have in mind the things of God not men. He’s bringing us through this for a reason and that reason is always for our better good. He’s allowing everything that we’re seeing and going through for our good.

With God no matter how bad things may seem, instead of fighting with one another or even ourselves over who is right or wrong, what shoulda or coulda of been done differently, we got to recognize if God allowed it, it’s for a reason, and it’s sometimes a sacrifice for the greater good because we can’t see the future. Romans 8:28 “ And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.” He’s in control! God will take us to the highest heights and the lowest depths, but as long as we’re holding on to Him we will never fear, because His hands is always stretched out to us and His door is never shut or locked that we can’t go in onto His throne of grace and mercy. God is love, undeniably truth, righteousness merciful compassionate, forgiveness, disciplinarian, grace…to whom we are to look to for in times of our desperate cries for help in any situation.

The word of God must be fulfilled, that’s the reason everything we’ve been going through. The darkness will turn to light it always does and season changes. We’re at a pentacle in evolution, new level new devils to conquer like technology, social media, pandemics, diseases…Ai. We are good for it once we stay in good relationship with the Lord.

The devil is an angel, sometimes we forget. Whenever we speak of an angel, it’s always in the context of it being a blessing from God that helps in times of need, like a miracle. Let’s acknowledge the fact that the devil is an angel gone rogue and I can’t help believe once an adversary is now used for God’s purpose to convert humanity.

But our forgiving and merciful Father in Job 1:6-12 allowed this evil tyrant to come before His presence with all the other good angels and asked permission to torment Job and God allowed him, but he wasn’t to take his life…What? God has a job the for the devil where humans and our faith in Him can be tested beyond what we can think or imagine God would allowed, except our lives would be spared.

There’s no compromising with the Lords goodness, mercy and love for His creation. But yet, us humans judges each other so mercilessly and for His sake. Definitely according to Isaiah 55:8, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.” Wow! The thought of God allowing this is truly beyond human understanding.

But after wrestling with God over what’s going on in our world He gave unto me this revelation: The devil can’t do anything unto humanity without His permission. What? I thought to myself, “that’s wicked” and right away He replied in my head, I heard the voice of Jesus telling Judas, “what you are going to do, do quickly.” And it hit me, God knows everything, even the plans of the devil and he works it for His good, Romans 8:28 “ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to His purpose. Everything God does is for our own good because he loves us all, John 3:16 God so loved the world…

The devil is the antagonist in our lives like in the movie he keep our lives interesting, exciting and focus on the things pertaining to God, bringing out the best in us, keeping our faith and our souls grounded in God, lest we fall. We’ve got to stand balance in this world, learning with wisdom, knowledge and understanding the antagonist is subjected to God power over him, and it is through God and God alone to whom he fears. We have the ability to choose to stand in faith rather than in fear. Take control through Jesus, and in Jesus nothing is impossible we can’t do or over come, even our weaken flesh and that of the worldliness.

An antagonist is like the switch, it turns on the souls that is walking around needed to be ignited. God uses this to get us awaken within our spirit. Sometimes we need a good fight to shows us how strong we can be if we put our faith in God and our mindset.

If we fear the devil, we give into his power over us. But in Christ our light and salvation to whom we are baptized, with all boldness of his authority given by which we are to operate, the devil will be defeated and all fears is gone.

Romans 3:23-24 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of good, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. When money or anything is put before God, we know the world is in crisis and our world is in crisis. Not money or any head of government, leaders, church…can save the world besides the Son of God, Jesus. Whom do you put your trust in to make the world better. While Jesus like Moses on the mountain top getting the commandments from Gods the Israelites was busy sinning against everything they had gone through being delivered out of bondage from Pharaoh, making a golden calf for their God. What are we busy today making for our deliver, salvation…our God? Jesus is in heaven like Moses getting the laws from God to make our world better and instead of being on our knees praying and asking for guidance, protection and stability…until his return like the Israelites we’re believing some how he has forsaken and forgotten about us. We have given up on God and began to go back to our old sinful ways like Jesus never came. How could we wonder why the world is in chaos.

The devil is here to keep us in check, that why not everything that happens to God’s people is to destroy us, but to build us like Job.

I could have never understood as a child why the Word of Gods would say, “put not your trust in man,” Psalm 146:3-5 Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish. Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God. Psalms 118:8 it is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust man…

I cried, just as Jesus wept for humanity. What going on in America today with the election is affecting the entire world regardless of their knowledge. America is not just about America, you are our big brother to many countries, and we look up to you for guidance. You have been the Abel to Cains of the world. If you become Cain, then there’s no hope for those like myself who look up to you as the beacon of light, God has chosen for the world to model after. The Lord presence has rested in you, for all the world to see. He had brought you out of darkness to be the light of the world for all to look up to, and now it looks like you’re in the battle for the brilliance of your light, in Him, through Him, to continue shine ever so bright. The enemy is in your camp, so watch and pray for deliverance. You became His light when he had placed all nations within your womb to grow. Like Abraham to whom he had promised would be father of nations, Genesis 17:5.

God didn’t choose Jerusalem, Iran, Russia, Germany…but He chose you America for such a time like this, for all the world who’s watching to see. Like Job you must stay faithful in your trials, you must stand and not faint, knowing that God is faithful. America have you lost the truth and righteousness on which you fought to attain? Have you given into the devil and his schemes, because of your vulnerability to the hardships of life after the pandemic? Are you turning the rocks to bread at the temptation of the devil?

“Are you righteous or even following after His righteousness?” Because Psalms 37:25-26 I been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.

We are watching you big brother, to see if you will continue to be faithful to God or to man.

I cry because I see the loss in humanity of morals, ethics, respect, unity…all the things that makes good human characters. Lord knows we’re not perfect, but when it seems like we’ve forgotten God. Who’s God to us now? And have we strayed away from the path of His righteousness and no longer reverend, fear or respect Him? We’re losing ourselves into the darkness along side with the devil, whose time is limited now. Whose side do we truly want to be on? We are knowledgeable enough on who God is, and how He laid out the foundation for the deliverance of sin through Jesus our salvation of all humanity, undisputedly through the word, and the Holy Spirit.

The outcome of this American election is going to set a precedent to the entire world who’s watching for whatever the reasons God has shine the light on it. Now is the time for prayer and reflection on the power and faith in the Lord our God himself to once again take back control of man straying in the wrong path.

Psalm 30:5 “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in morning.”

“I shall not be move, I trust in HIM, do you?”
