The Evil Ruler Threatens the Prophet of God

Threatening the prophet of God is the same as threatening God.For that matter, threatening anyone who belongs to the Living God will amount to threatening and challenging His strength and might.

Nahum 3:1-7
New International Version 1984 (NIV1984)
Woe to the city of blood, full of lies,full of plunder, never without victims! The crack of whips, the clatter of wheels, galloping horses and jolting chariots!
Charging cavalry, flashing swords and glittering spears! Many casualties,
piles of dead, bodies without number, people stumbling over the corpses—
all because of the wanton lust of a harlot, alluring, the mistress of sorceries,
who enslaved nations by her prostitution and peoples by her witchcraft.
“I am against you,” declares the LORD Almighty. “I will lift your skirts over your face. I will show the nations your nakedness and the kingdoms your shame.
I will pelt you with filth, I will treat you with contempt and make you a spectacle. All who see you will flee from you and say, ‘Nineveh is in ruins—who will mourn for her?’ Where can I find anyone to comfort you?”

Your strength will either come from God or the Devil on this earth. You will get your strength from the Divine power or the other,the Evil power. If you have continual strength to do evil on earth, that would mean you have sought the strength from the Devil, the Evil One.Divine power does good to all mankind and there are no miseries attached to it.This power and authority was placed on the Lord Jesus Christ. The Devil was defeated by the Lord Jesus Christ on this earth through His resurrection from the dead. He conquered death for all mankind, especially for those who would believe in Him. Death was always used as the Devil's weapon against man.He succeeded in bringing death to Adam and Eve.He brought along the fear of death.Men who do not fear God will fear death.Now he is seeking to bring second death to all mankind who are subjected to him.Those who seek the strength from the Evil One to do evil that brings misery to mankind will in the end be in ruins like Nineveh always.

Psalm 94:20
New International Version (NIV)
Can a corrupt throne be allied with you— a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?

This Time Babylon Will Surely Fall.

Revelation 18:1-3
New International Version (NIV)
After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor. With a mighty voice he shouted:
“‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!’ She has become a dwelling for demons
and a haunt for every impure spirit, a haunt for every unclean bird, a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal. For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her,
and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.”

If we were to recall Babylon, we will remember Nebuchadnezzar-the proud king who became insane, who ate grass like a cow as a punishment from God.Daniel foretold him, "your kingdom will fall" and it surely did! When we mention Babylon we remember 'Babel'. The proud people, who were filled with evil intentions of their hearts and were finally scattered forever by God.They could never ever come together again to do evil on earth.

Just who is this Babylon now?

Revelation 17:4-6
New International Reader's Version (NIRV)
The woman was dressed in purple and bright red. She was gleaming with gold, jewels and pearls. In her hand she held a golden cup filled with things that God hates. It was filled with her terrible, dirty sins. 5 Here is the name that was written on her forehead.

Mystery,

the great city of Babylon

the Mother of Prostitutes

the Mother of everything on earth that God hates

1) "..a golden cup filled with things that God hates"
2) "..the Mother of everything on earth that God hates"

We have been living a lie of the Devil all this while that God does not hate anything in this world.That God accepts everything as they are. That's a lie of the Devil. God hates 'Babylon' who is the Mother of everything that God hates because she has a golden cup filled with things that God hates. We have been told a lie that God does not hate anything on this earth. Wake up!

The Kingdom of Darkness is a Very Confused Kingdom

Mark 3:24-26
New International Version (NIV)

If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come.

No evil unity will stand.It will fall.It's an unity of planning and doing evil together.We have an example of this unity that God scattered forever in the Old Testament.

Genesis 11:1-9
New International Version (NIV)
Now the whole world had one language and a common speech. As people moved eastward they found a plain in Shinar and settled there. They said to each other, “Come, let’s make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar. Then they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves; otherwise we will be scattered over the face of the whole earth.”

But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower the people were building. The LORD said, “If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.”

So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth, and they stopped building the city. That is why it was called Babel—because there the LORD confused the language of the whole world. From there the LORD scattered them over the face of the whole earth.

Watch out for the Yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod

Mark 8:14-21
New International Version (NIV)
The disciples had forgotten to bring bread, except for one loaf they had with them in the boat.“Be careful,” Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and that of Herod.” They discussed this with one another and said, “It is because we have no bread.” Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked them: “Why are you talking about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Are your hearts hardened? Do you have eyes but fail to see, and ears but fail to hear? And don’t you remember? When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?” “Twelve,” they replied. “And when I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many basketfuls of pieces did you pick up?”
They answered, “Seven.” He said to them, “Do you still not understand?”

What is hypocrisy? Hypocrisy is promoting God to others but personally obeying the sinful nature of the Devil in you only.Watch out for such people, says the Lord Jesus Christ...OR... it could also be the promoting of the sinful nature of the Devil in the name of God.

Jeremiah 22:13-17
New International Version (NIV)
“Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness, his upper rooms by injustice,
making his own people work for nothing, not paying them for their labor.
He says, ‘I will build myself a great palace with spacious upper rooms.’
so he makes large windows in it, panels it with cedar and decorates it in red.
“Does it make you a king to have more and more cedar? Did not your father have food and drink? He did what was right and just, so all went well with him. He defended the cause of the poor and needy, and so all went well. Is that not what it means to know me?” declares the LORD. “But your eyes and your heart are set only on dishonest gain, on shedding innocent blood and on oppression and extortion.”

Bribery to cover up wrongdoings.

Matthew 28:11-15 (New International Version)
While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests everything that had happened. When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ If this report gets to the governor, we will satisfy him and keep you out of trouble.” So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. And this story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day.

Corruption is an age old problem yet to be addressed as you should. Money becomes the substitute for covering wrongdoings. Qoute: "When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money, telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came during the night and stole him away while we were asleep.’ This they did to cover both the parties involved, one that benefits both parties, they say.It is intended to please the governor and keep the soldiers out of trouble for negligence of duty. Actually, that wasn't the truth of that matter. An evil plan had to be devised before spreading that lie because lie has to appear like truth. Lots of money was necessary to make lie to appear like truth.

Look who is devising an evil plan and who gave the soldiers the bribe. Qoute:"When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan, they gave the soldiers a large sum of money....rings a bell? All in the name of their god, the chief priests devised an evil plan to hide the truth and spread a lie and this they did with bribes to the soldiers.They zipped the soldiers' mouth with bribes.How 'clever' in their own eyes? but not so 'clever' in understanding that there is a God of truth watching the ways of man always. He will reward you accordingly.If you sow to your sinful nature,you will reap destruction, no matter who you claim you are!( To be continued....)

Distorted Understanding of Sin.

Isaiah 5:19-21 (New International Version, ©2011)

19 to those who say, “Let God hurry;
let him hasten his work
so we may see it.
The plan of the Holy One of Israel—
let it approach, let it come into view,
so we may know it.”

20 Woe to those who call evil good
and good evil,
who put darkness for light
and light for darkness,
who put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter.

21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes
and clever in their own sight.

You can't be trusting in evil powers and pretend to be doing good, not for long!

For full Christformation to happen in you, there must be your total obedeince to Christ our Lord.The one who has the greatest obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ will be the greatest servant of His on earth.The greatest in the Kingdom of God is the one who obeys Him most.If you are just pretending to obey Him, He will know best what to do with you..

You 'll be Fed with Honey and Wheat........

Psalm 81:13-16 (New International Version, ©2011)

“If my people would only listen to me,
if Israel would only follow my ways,
how quickly I would subdue their enemies
and turn my hand against their foes!
Those who hate the LORD would cringe before him,
and their punishment would last forever.
But you would be fed with the finest of wheat;
with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”

You are wrestling with evil spirits and you should make every effort to defeat the sinful nature of the Devil in you.Once you overcome all the power of the enemy, you will have Christformation in you.

Psalm 83:13-18 (New International Version, ©2011)

Make them like tumbleweed, my God,
like chaff before the wind
As fire consumes the forest
or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,
so pursue them with your tempest
and terrify them with your storm.
Cover their faces with shame, LORD,
so that they will seek your name.
May they ever be ashamed and dismayed;
may they perish in disgrace.
Let them know that you, whose name is the LORD—
that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
