Since I was a very young child I've had spiritual discernment. I always knew things before they would happen. Sometimes it frightened me to the point I would pray and ask the Lord to take it away. But as I grew I knew one day I would come to except it and even embrace it and see it as a great gift He wanted me to have. I've come to understand that it can also protect me from evil and give me insight into the path I now travel. Like a Light that shines in the darkness to light my way. I am not talking about esp or psychic abilities, but a gift from The Lord.
Recently, I have had several encounters with people who are void of discernment. This really gets me upset. As I mulled over these situations I asked The Lord to show me what on earth was wrong with this picture. Why is this that so many have no discernment. It's like not having your eye sight. You are stumbling around trying to find your way and you are just plain blind.
Well the answer had already come before I had asked for it. Amazing! I know He has things timed just so as to always be there when I need it.
Two days earlier I was listening to Maya Angelo on the radio. She recounted an old African tale about a woman who came upon a snake in the road. The snake ask her to help him because he was cold and hungry. She replied aren't you a poisonous snake? He replied yes, but I am cold and need of help. So the woman took him home and placed him by the fire and fed him. The snake then asked her to pick him up and cuddle him which she did. Then he bite her under her breast. She said why have you done this ? The snake said I told you I was poisonous. Similar to the scorpion and the frog tale.
When we know that a person is bad, and we persist in their company, WE GET WHAT WE DESERVE! When we do not heed the warnings and red flags that our instinct is telling us BEWARE, WE GET WHAT WE DESERVE!
I looked up the word discernment, it is the quality of being able to grasp and comprehend what is obscure. The power to see what is not evident to the average mind. Discernment stresses accuracy as in reading character and motives ,example: to know a true friend.
I also looked up wisdom and it surprised even me. It's definition is: Knowledge of what is true and right COUPLED with just judgement as to action. Sagacity, discernment or insight.
It is high time for everyone to wake up and SEE THE LIGHT!!!!!
America and the world are going to go thru the worst time in all human history. We need His wisdom and discernment more than ever.

My Love For Him!
Oh for the love that bought my soul,
Oh for the love that made me whole'
Bought not with silver or gold.
I'm not my own person nor is my soul.
It belongs to the one who paid the price
with His precious blood He didn't think twice.
So here I sit longing for Him
Hoping and praying for family and friends
To see His Light that shines so bright
His coming will be a blink of your sight.
Oh for the love that made me whole'
Bought not with silver or gold.
I'm not my own person nor is my soul.

So here I sit longing for Him
Hoping and praying for family and friends
To see His Light that shines so bright
His coming will be a blink of your sight.

The Bleeding Flag!
I had a vision 2 days ago of our flag, the symbol of our freedom. It colors were dripping to the ground, the red and blue . I can't remember a time in my life that has made me both fearful and sad for our nation. There really are no words for the destruction of our nation. Only sadness and tears.
I think I am sadder that the people of this once great beauty, we call ,"The Land of The Free and The Home of The Brave," have betrayed our forefathers and all the God fearing people who have lived here. We now are no longer free but debtors to other nations and not brave enough to stand up and fight.
The politicians, the money lenders, the brokers of wall street , and the people, who put their trust in the almighty dollar to get more dollars have corrupted our nation.
Such sin and shame is a great reproach to this once lovely lady. I think the angels are weeping with Christ to see the terrible shame America is going to endure. Nations who looked to us as a guiding light, sit now in darkness and wonder who will now help them.
His Grace should have been sufficient for us all, but we trampled it under our feet as we hurried to the money lenders ,wall street brokers, and politicians and the government to take care of us.
So here we are in this leaky old boat, bailing and bailing, and we will get no where

Psalm 37!
ssYears ago I was going through some ordeal that had really upset me. I prayed for His guidance and it always came just at the right time. It was Psalm 37.
As I read this beautiful Psalm I knew He had heard my pitiful crying. It was wonderful to know that Almighty God, who is very busy, had time to instruct me and give me confidence. Here is a synopsis of my take on this Psalm.
#1. Verse 1. Fret not thyself because of evildoers.
Why? For thy will be cut down.
#2. Verse 3. Trust in the Lord and do good.
Why? So you will dwell in the land and be fed.
#3. Verse 4. Delight yourself in The Lord.
Why? So He will give you the desires of your heart.
#4. Verse 5. Commit thy way unto The Lord, and trust in Him.
Why? so he can bring forth your righteousness as the light and your judgement as the noonday.
#5. Verse 7. Rest in The Lord, and wait patiently for Him: fret not thyself because of those who prospers in his way, because of the man who brings forth wicked devices to pass.
#6. Verse 8. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not to do evil.
Why? Because the evil doers shall be cut off.
The Lord tells us how evil will be cut off untill verse 27
#7. Verse 27. Depart from evil, and do good.
Why? Because The Lord loves judgement and he perserves His saints.
#8. Verse 34. Wait on The Lord, and keep His way.
Why? So he can exalt you to inherit the land.
#9. Verse 37. Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is PEACE!
Verse 40. He will deliver those who trust in THE Lord.

As each day passes I get a little sicker. Sick of the world the flesh and the devil. I am not sure which is worse or even if one could say which was which. I just know I want out of here. I truly long for His return. I don't know when that will be exactly. No one does. We were just given the signs to look for and I see them all around us.
I am hoping to hear the Church cry out for His return, but I gotta tell you I don't hear it yet. I am getting a little long in the tooth and I can only hope He will come before things get too bad or I see death.
Yesterday, as I was pondering some things, it was like The Lord was saying that the church is too much in the world and not as separate as She ought to be. We are to be a peculiar people to the world's eyes. But instead we are more like them than Christ. We have forgotten to love Him with everything that is in us. I am not sure that the church of today knows that. All I know is I am sick at heart over what is happening to our nation and the church.
I remember that scripture in Matthew 24:12 because iniquity shall abound the love of many will wax cold. Verse 13 he that endures to the end shall be saved.
The world will go through some terrible times before He comes, I know that. People ,even now are saying we are going to get out of all this trouble, they think that man will ride to the rescue. This is a bad time in which the world may call for the one world government it has been straining at the bit to form.
History not remembered is destined to be repeated.

Demons Out The Wazoo!
I was wondering what The Lord would have me write today as I prayed. Well it didn't take long at all. I read a blog about the infamous Ted Haggard, and I was off to the races.
Last week he and his wife were on The Oprah show. As I watched I got sick to my stomach as the flesh and demons spoke. Christ on many occasions would not allow the demons to speak because of their persuasive powers. But I find it ironic that the church is the one that is silent and the demons are speaking.
Here's the thing that upset me about Ted Haggard: he has yet to admit that he is a homosexual, in fact he denys it. He says he is a hetero sexual with attachments. WITH ATTACHMENTS! LOL LOL LOL!!!!
He has been convinced by secular counselors , not to mention his flesh, that he is ok and not your run of the mill homosexual. WHAT A BUNCH OF WHOOY!!!! Folks, this is where we are at in 2009, poo pooing homosexuals and their sinful practices. Shame on America and any other nation that excepts their practices.
People are afraid to confront this head on and we need to! It is not that the man is a hypocrite, which is a terrible thing. But people are deferring to hypocrisy and not to his drug and homosexual practices so as not to upset the homosexual community. Even his wife has been persuaded that he is ok. This man needs to have his demons exercised from his soul, HE HAS DEMONS OUT THE WAZOO!!!! SAD, SAD ,SAD!
I think America and the world are at the end of the road folks! You do know what is at the end of a road? No where to go!!!
