@MaryMamuzich @Asianking Same here. We are each a part of family of God around the world.
@MaryMamuzich @Olamide @blueheart1000 no worries. 💗
@MaryMamuzich @Olamide @blueheart1000 Dana Coverstone. You can find a lot of videos on YouTube. Some people are trying to discredit him, others agree with his prophecies. The dream you spoke of sounds very similar to the dreams Pastor Coverstone shared on YouTube. Very similar.
@MaryMamuzich @Olamide @blueheart1000 Is it Pastor Coverstone? Or another person with a similar dream?
@MaryMamuzich @blueheart1000 What are your thoughts on all of this? We, as God's children are not to fear. It can be so easy to be alarmed and afraid. I believe we need to "redeem the time" . How much should we aim to store up provisions? I wonder this myself. If we need to go somewhere quickly, how much can we take with us? I agree with your advice to seek the Lord about all of this! I think I need to be storing up more "oil for my lamp" as the wise virgins did!
@blueheart1000 I found at times that I would have liked to have purchased a few extra items, when I came up short during the lockdown. However, my family and I didn't go hungry. Not too long ago I found something I'd stored in the pantry was ruined by mice. Here on earth "moth and rust corrupt" . This doesn't mean we shouldn't store up provisions, but it does give me food for thought. I remember all the panic of "Y2K". What to make of all of it?
@blueheart1000 I've been wanting to discuss these thoughts with someone, so thank you for sharing what you did. I hope to hear thoughts from others. These are things I've been pondering in my heart for months. I want to be wise and use the opportunities given me, whether for purchasing a few items for a legitimate future need, or to share Jesus and give a few more dollars to the ministry of the Gospel around the world. Sometimes we need to choose between the two. Then what?
@blueheart1000 John 9:4 talks about working while we can, as the night is coming when no one can work. This year has made me realize in a new way that the opportunities we have right now to reach the world for Christ are not to be taken for granted. Things can change so suddenly. What should my focus be? What matters most?
@blueheart1000 such as Matthew 24 and 25, wondering what my response should be to the things I see taking place. I do want to be wise. Proverbs 27:12 talks about seeing danger and hiding. But, as Christians, can we potentially lose sight of our calling to reach the world with the Gospel and instead become consumed with protecting our earthly life that is only for a moment even in good times?
@blueheart1000 I've been seeing similar predictions and advice on YouTube, etc. Proverbs 31:21 says virtuous wife prepares her household for snow. This could apply to preparing ahead for other foreseen situations as well. But, with all the recent talk of calamity and storing up provisions, running to the mountains, etc, I've been wondering if the focus is turning to saving our lives and belongings here on earth, rather than storing up treasures in Heaven. I've been pondering the Scriptures,
@daniel Amen! Thanks for sharing.
HUGE Thankyou to everyone who joined us in prayer for North Korea. Praise God Prayer Works!! 👇🏻
@Asianking @sinbach Got news that my dear dear friend passed away on Wednesday. The news of his death has been heavy on me.. trying seriously to pick myself up. I request prayer... Please pray for me.
@MaryMamuzich @Asianking Agreed!
I felt led to share this Scripture today. Maybe there's one person in particular, or more than one, who is generously and diligently serving the needs of the poor for Jesus' sake. Maybe there will be "bad news " or an attack from the adversaries, but this is a message of God to you, that you will never be moved. You will not fear. You are triumphant in the Lord and your righteousness will endure forever. God sees all. A cup of cold water will not be unnoticed. May God BLESS you today!!!
It is well with the man who deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice. For the righteous will never be moved; he will be remembered forever. He is not afraid of bad news; his heart is firm, trusting in the Lord . His heart is steady; he will not be afraid, until he looks in triumph on his adversaries. He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures forever; his horn is exalted in honor.
