And HE will show them HIS covenant."

There are visions that when GOD reveals you may think they may take place in a place where you are well acquainted. However, they are for an appointed time that is known by GOD.

"And the Lord answered me and said, "Write the vision and make it plain upon tables, that he may run who readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end, it shall speak, and not lie. though it tarry, wait for it; because it shall surely come, it will not tarry." Habakkuk 2:2-3

There is something GOD revealed years ago that I now see was not meant for South Africa but a foreign land. IT IS THE SECOND ONE NOW. And that's how we know we are at a place where God wants us to be at that time. Also, it's time to be alert about fulfilling GOD's plan.

What do we have to do then?

🌹. "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be strong. 1 Corinthians 16:13
🌹. "Be very careful, then, how you live - not as unwise but as wise...." Ephesians 5:15-16
🌹. "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come." Mathew 24:42

And "The Lord will keep you from all harm;
He will watch over your life;
The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore." Psalm 121: 7-8

Amen.

"Your righteousness shall go before you;
The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard."
Isaiah 58:8

When God let the children of Israel go by the way of the wilderness, it was because HE wanted them to learn to trust HIM.
When their enemies followed them from Egypt, the GLORY of GOD moved to the rear part of Israel for their protection.

If we trust GOD and truly depend on HIM, that's what GOD does in our life.

To be in a foreign land is the same as being in the wilderness. Only the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY sustains you out there.

I PRAY MY FAITH IN HIM MAY NOT FAIL,
NO MATTER HOW HARD IT IS.
FOR HE IS THE KEEPER OF MY SOUL.

I LOVE YOU LORD
I LOVE YOU MY KING.
I HAVE SEEN YOUR BEAUTY IN THE STRANGE LAND.

“You shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you….”2 Chronicles 20:17 (KJV)

It wasn’t easy when the prophet of the LORD spoke these words to King Jehoshaphat and Juda as a whole.

Today I pray:
Lord of hosts, Jehovah Saboath, MAN of war, the ONE who was, and is, and is to come.
I put my trust in YOU. YOU know all the ways that I take.
Hear me speedily, Oh LORD my spirit faileth, hide not thy face from me, lest I will be like them that go down into the pit. (Psalm 143:7). Send Thine hand from above, rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children. (Psalm 144:7)

Today I say: All the battles that I face, are not mine, they are YOURS, MY KING.
AMEN

“My people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you from being a priest for me…..” Hosea 4:6

“For in much wisdom, there is much grief, And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.” Ecclesiastes 1:18

What a juxtaposition!!!

It is God who spoke to Hosea these words. Truly, we dearly pay for our ignorance. And it’s painful. God hates people who lack knowledge because they end up rejecting HIM or doing absurd things with an excuse that they didn’t know anything concerning the matter for their actions.

On the other hand, Solomon cries out differently. He says, “To increase knowledge leads to an increase of sorrow”.

It's a fact that once you know something, you are expected to be responsible and accountable for your actions.

There are things that we would wish to do, but we wouldn’t, because we know something, at times even the consequences thereof. Likewise, there are things we would wish to do, but wouldn’t because of the lack of knowledge and understanding about them.

Again, there are wrong things that we literally do because we lack knowledge. As a result, we get destroyed. And at times, we do these things wittingly.

Many a time, I have seen that people like to prophesy. However, they don’t know the troubles underlying the prophecies. Some revelations don’t leave peace to the prophets. They bring grief, sorrow, and misery until God does something about them. Or those revelations word come to pass.
For example, Daniel,
"And I, Daniel, fainted and was sick for days afterward......I was astonished by the vision, but no one understood it." Daniel 8:27

Daniel saw a vision that got him sick.
Why was he sick?
"KNOWLEDGE OF SOMETHING" or "KNOWING MORE THAN HE COULD HANDLE."

On the other hand, Solomon states, “Through knowledge, the righteous shall be delivered.” Proverbs 11:9

Even though knowledge may increase sorrow, it brings wisdom and skills to prosper in life.

“Now the LORD said unto Abram:
“Get out of your country, out of your family, and from your father’s house. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great, you shall be a blessing. I will bless who bless you, I will curse him who curses you, and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”” Genesis 12:1-3

If GOD had promised you to be a blessing to the nations, know that it ain’t a minor thing. Again, it’s not something that will happen according to your own thoughts. The path that you will take, would be very narrow and unpromising.

But believe me, it will come to pass if you can obey HIS instructions; and you don’t look at what GOD does to other people, and you can persevere. Keep your spiritual eyes open. Such things happen when you have forgotten what GOD has said to you.

Somehow, it won’t start as you might expect. Remember, the people of Israel expected the Saviour. They believed the word of GOD; however, their expectation was carnally minded. When the Saviour came, it was difficult for them to see the Messiah they were expecting to see all along.

Abram left his family as GOD had instructed him. He didn’t know that he would fight 5 kings who had taken Lot to captivity as they were fighting against 4 other kings. Again, he didn’t know that he would meet Melchizedek king of Salem, and receive a blessing from him.

Your path will be very challenging. You will pass through severe obstacles. You will pass through hardships that are beyond your strength. Perplexity will be inevitable. But at the end of the day, HIS word will be fulfilled through you. All of this, you will experience in a strange land (foreign), where there aren’t people who will comfort you. You would know that you have to move forward, for retreat is never a way to go. It’ll be you and GOD on the way. AMEN

HOW THE APOSTLES and SOME DISCIPLES OF CHRIST DIED:

1. Matthew - suffered martyrdom in Ethiopia, killed by a sword wound.

2. Mark - died in Alexandria, Egypt, after being dragged by horses through the streets until he was dead.

3. Luke - was hanged in Greece as a result of his tremendous preaching to the lost.

4. John - faced martyrdom when he was boiled in a huge basin or caldron of boiling oil during a wave of persecution in Rome. However, he was miraculously delivered from death. John was then sentenced to the mines on the prison island of Patmos. He wrote his prophetic Book of Revelation there on the island of Patmos . The apostle John was later freed and returned to serve as bishop of Edessa in modern day Turkey . He died as an old man, the only apostle to die peacefully.

5. Peter - was crucified upside down on a cross. According to church tradition it was because he told his tormentors that he felt unworthy to die in the same way that Jesus Christ had died.

6. James - the leader of the church in Jerusalem, was thrown down over a hundred feet from the southeast pinnacle of the Temple when he refused to deny his faith in Christ. When they discovered that he survived the fall, his enemies beat James to death with a fuller's club. *This was the same pinnacle where Satan had taken Jesus during the temptation.

7. James the Son of Zebedee - was a fisherman by trade when Jesus called him to a lifetime of ministry. As a strong leader of the church, James was beheaded at Jerusalem. The Roman officer who guarded James watched in amazement as James defended his faith at his trial. Later, the officer walked beside James to the place of ex*****on. Overcome by conviction, the Roman officer declared his new faith to the judge and knelt beside James to accept beheading as a Christian.

8. Bartholomew - also known as Nathaniel was a missionary to Asia. He witnessed for our Lord in present day Turkey. Bartholomew was martyred for his preaching in Armenia where he was flayed to death by a whip.

9. Andrew - was crucified on an X-shaped cross in Patras, Greece. After being whipped severely by seven soldiers they tied his body to the cross with cords to prolong his agony. His followers reported that, when he was led toward the cross, Andrew saluted it in these words: 'I have long desired and expected this happy hour. The cross has been consecrated by the body of Christ hanging on it.' He continued to preach to his tormentors for two days until he expired.

10. Thomas - was stabbed with a spear in India during one of his missionary trips to establish the church in the Sub-continent.

11. Jude - was killed with arrows when he refused to deny his faith in Christ.

12. Matthias - the apostle chosen to replace the traitor Judas Iscariot, was stoned and then beheaded.

13. Paul - was tortured and then BEHEADED by the evil Emperor Nero at Rome in A.D. 67. Paul endured a lengthy imprisonment, which allowed him to write his many epistles to the churches he had formed throughout the Roman Empire. These letters, which taught many of the foundational doctrines of Christianity, form a large portion of the New Testament.

Perhaps this is a reminder to us that our sufferings here are indeed minor compared to the intense persecution and cold cruelty faced by the apostles and disciples during their times, for the sake of Christ and the faith.

Make this message your contribution to the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ! THE SALVATION OF OUR PRECIOUS SOULS IS NOT THROUGH RELIGIOUS PERSUASION BUT THROUGH A RELATION PERSONAL WITH THE LORD JESUS CHRIST! Be blessed📖🙏❤️👍✌️
