Distractions

I had a dream a while back and it was about overcoming distractions. We give so much thought to natural things that we often neglect spiritual things...We often neglect our relationship with God. Bills,Mortages,Rent,Jobs,Family,Relationships...crowd our lives and mind and take us away from what is truly important,Jesus. We as Christians must purposely make the Lord our primary focus. Sure we must have and income, we must pay the bills,we must take care of our family but we also must make time for God. Time to talk with him, Listen to him, and Read and Obey his word. We must make sure we focus on, talk with and spend time with God every chance we get in this season; this 11th hour, can't you just feel the urgency? It feels like there is going to be a major event. A major change.
Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things.
Isaiah
45:22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I [am] God, and [there is] none else.

Separation of the Tares from the Wheat

Matthew
13:36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
13:37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked [one];
13:39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
13:40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
13:41 The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
13:43 Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
God keeps leading me to Matthew Chapter 13
This is a time of separation, of trial by fire, a time of refining for the people of God. Those that are not deeply rooted will fall away...I encourage you brothers and sisters dig deep; pray, fast, study the word, feed your spirit.
1 Peter 1:7
That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
Proverbs 25:4
Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer.

Evil Times

I waivered about posting about what I am posting in this post but after seeing an article I really feel I would be remiss if I said nothing (I have pasted part of the article within the post). Last night in church there was an altar call for deliverance from homosexuality and fornication. I am married and I do not commit adultary physically but at times Lord help my mind. For the last weeks I have really been battling against lust and it was very awkward because I am married and I don't have an overly active sex life with my husband (I'm going to be real). I asked the Lord, Lord what in the world is this...the answer came last night. People in church had been prophesying about ancient demons being released and last night the pastor said some of them were homosexuality and fornication. I knew then why I had been fighting this thing off. It is so important for the Body of Christ to be renewing our minds with the word of God and Praying and Fasting in this hour. The devil is busy...he knows his time is short.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things [are] honest, whatsoever things [are] just, whatsoever things [are] pure, whatsoever things [are] lovely, whatsoever things [are] of good report; if [there be] any virtue, and if [there be] any praise, think on these things.
JACKSON, Miss. – An 18-year-old Mississippi lesbian student whose school district canceled her senior prom rather than allow her to escort her girlfriend and wear a tuxedo said she got some unfriendly looks from classmates when she reluctantly returned to campus Thursday. Constance McMillen said she didn't want to go back the day after the Itawamba County school board's decision, but her father told her she needed to face her classmates, teachers and school officials. "My daddy told me that I needed to show them that I'm still proud of who I am," McMillen told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. "The fact that this will help people later on, that's what's helping me to go on."

Good Ground

I had a vision in church last night of what must have been different galaxies and then I saw a crest. Someone began to speak of how they doubted and God took away a vision they had been having and then he prayed and God brought it back. The testimony impacted me and what I feel led to pray is this: Lord in this day...these last days when you are pouring out your spirit (your glory) upon your people and your sons and daughters are prophesying, dreaming, and having visions like never before give us also Lord Jesus the gift of faith. Give us Faith as never before, mountain moving, walking on water Faith and what we hear in this hour let us boldly proclaim into the atmosphere and let your sheep recongnize YOUR voice and it be written and rooted in our hearts and spirits. Water it with confirmations, quicken it by your holy spirit Lord. Thank you for loving us enough to show us your mysteries now let us walk trustworthily, holy, blameless. I pray these things in Jesus name. Amen and Selah.
Matthew
13:1 The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.
13:2 And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.
13:3 And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
13:4 And when he sowed, some [seeds] fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:
13:5 Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:
13:6 And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.
13:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:
13:8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.
13:9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
13:10 And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

There is An End to Grace

I remember during a time in my life when I was doing wrong while knowing better the Lord began to grow tired of my sin. I knew what I was doing was wrong but I did not want to stop. One day a co-worker and I were in the front office of the school I worked in and I saw a worksheet another teacher had left behind and I wanted to make a copy. I showed it to my co-worker who taught the same grade as I did and told her we should make copies; she agreed but wanted to wait until the next day to make the copies. I talked her into copying the worksheet right then and while we were on our way back to our portables,someone stopped us and informed us that lightening had struck both our portables. We rushed to the portables to see the damage. The lightening had went through her portable exited it and then went through my portable and exited the back of it and dug a trench about 4 inches deep to my car and then hit my car. If God had not put it on that teachers heart to leave the worksheet in case someone else wanted to copy it we may have been in the portables or worst on the steps (which were metal) on the way in; but God sought to warn not destroy me. I went into the library while waiting on the tow truck and walked near a shelf of books. Out of no where a book fell off the shelf and the title was "Pinkerton Behave!";my last name is Pinkerton. Just as God sent a warning to me, he is sending a warning to the entire world through earthquakes,etc. The message :Be Saved!Behave!Be holy! BE obedient.
1 Chronicles 28:9
And thou, Solomon my son, know thou the God of thy father, and serve him with a perfect heart and with a willing mind: for the LORD searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if thou seek him, he will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off for ever.
Isaiah 55:6
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near
Ezekiel 33:5
He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him. But he that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.
There is an end to grace. In this hour we must sanctify ourselves while we still can for after a while he that will come shall come and will not tarry.

Shaking/Earthquakes

Isaiah
34:1 Come near, ye nations, to hear; and hearken, ye people: let the earth hear, and all that is therein; the world, and all things that come forth of it.
34:2 For the indignation of the LORD [is] upon all nations, and [his] fury upon all their armies: he hath utterly destroyed them, he hath delivered them to the slaughter.
34:3 Their slain also shall be cast out, and their stink shall come up out of their carcases, and the mountains shall be melted with their blood.
34:4 And all the host of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled together as a scroll: and all their host shall fall down, as the leaf falleth off from the vine, and as a falling [fig] from the fig tree.
34:5 For my sword shall be bathed in heaven: behold, it shall come down upon Idumea, and upon the people of my curse, to judgment.
34:6 The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, [and] with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the LORD hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea.
34:7 And the unicorns shall come down with them, and the bullocks with the bulls; and their land shall be soaked with blood, and their dust made fat with fatness.
34:8 For [it is] the day of the LORD'S vengeance, [and] the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.
34:9 And the streams thereof shall be turned into pitch, and the dust thereof into brimstone, and the land thereof shall become burning pitch.
34:10 It shall not be quenched night nor day; the smoke thereof shall go up for ever: from generation to generation it shall lie waste; none shall pass through it for ever and ever.
34:11 But the cormorant and the bittern shall possess it; the owl also and the raven shall dwell in it: and he shall stretch out upon it the line of confusion, and the stones of emptiness.
34:12 They shall call the nobles thereof to the kingdom, but none [shall be] there, and all her princes shall be nothing.
34:13 And thorns shall come up in her palaces, nettles and brambles in the fortresses thereof: and it shall be an habitation of dragons, [and] a court for owls.
34:14 The wild beasts of the desert shall also meet with the wild beasts of the island, and the satyr shall cry to his fellow; the screech owl also shall rest there, and find for herself a place of rest.
34:15 There shall the great owl make her nest, and lay, and hatch, and gather under her shadow: there shall the vultures also be gathered, every one with her mate.
34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.
34:17 And he hath cast the lot for them, and his hand hath divided it unto them by line: they shall possess it for ever, from generation to generation shall they dwell therein
