Reinstate the Altar of God!!

Amos 3:14
I will also visit the altars of Bethel; and the horns of the altar shall be cut off and fall to the ground.

The prophet, Amos is here warning the children of Israel of God’s impending judgment, against them because they had turned away from worshiping the true and living God to the worship of idols.

When we build a place of idolatry, we invite God to destroy it.

Growing up, every home would have a Holy Bible in a prominent place in the home to let everyone know that God is honored in this home; the Bible would be read, we  prayed and tried to live by the dictates of the Word.
 Today in many homes, the Bible is replaced with televisions, game consoles, guns, computers, cellphones and every electronic gadgets: We spend countless hours surfing the web, playing games and the list is inexhaustible; many even use cellphones in churches under the guise of reading the Bible or taking notes while the Word of God is being proclaimed.

Let’s reinstate the Word of God in our homes, schools, workplaces and even in the churches. Let it be planted and reverence in our hearts. God is a jealous God!  Let it not be said of us, “we have sown the wind and we are reaping the whirlwind”(Hosea 8:7). The altars of dedication to idols would be destroyed by God’s judgement. When we build a place of idolatry we invite God to destroy it.

Will you sing?

The sons of Korah inherited a legacy of woe: Their father, Korah and  co-conspirators, led a rebellion against Moses and as a result of their action, God judged them. The earth opened up and swallowed them alive before the children of Israel. I often wonder, with such a  painful past; how were the sons of Korah so resilient that they moved beyond the shame and painful memory of their father's public debacle, to pen some of the best love songs to God. Ps. 42: 1  As the deer pants after the water brooks, so pants my soul for you my God. Ps. 44:8 In God  we boast all day long, and praise your name for ever. Ps. 84:2 My soul longs, yes even faints for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God It doesn't matter what shame may have marred your family's name or even if you were the culprit: Be encouraged, the Blood of Jesus has erased the hand writing of shame and disgrace. Praise the Lord. May we like the sons of Korah; pray that o...

Eagle’s Anointing

‭‭ Psalms‬ ‭103:5‬ ‭NLT‬‬  “He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like     the eagle’s!” In conversation, today with a friend, she was expressing how she was so tired which she attributed to old age. I jokingly declared over her the “eagle’s anointing” and suddenly I felt  a check in my spirit, it’s as if a light bulb lit in my spirit. I have never heard of the eagle’s anointing, however, my friend quickly received the anointing. After our conversation, I decided to further research the eagle’s anointing and low and behold, I found this blog. Please take the time to read, Very powerful. For real now: Receive the Eagle’s Anointing, IJMN. Amen  https://informationintotal.blogspot.com/2017/10/eagles-anointing.html

Firewall

In the natural, a “firewall  typically establishes a barrier between a trusted network and an untrusted network, such as the Internet”.   Wikipedia .  In the spiritual, the Blood of Jesus is our firewall, against the attacks of the enemy. Hear what the Lord is saying through His prophet  Isaiah: “In the west, people will respect the name of the Lord; in the east, they will glorify him. For he will come like a raging flood tide driven by the breath of the Lord.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭59:19‬ ‭NLT‬‬ My brothers and sisters, daily, this Firewall must be up because there is no downtime for the enemy.
