Ephesians 6:12:
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the
darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places


Thanks George, for bringing this to my attention, it helps.

Richard D:
 Beloved.


I know when I had been laid off I considered all things lost because I could not find and employer who was hiring but God sent me work and saved me from destruction.  I know when Joanna was thrown into the sea he must have considered his life over but God sent a whale and rescued him from death.

You’re question Beloved is a very good question, one I believed I had already weighed out a few months ago. I know of no person who wants to loose their home in this life or their car or anything else that concerns ones needs in life.

Beloved, I watch my bank account dwindle down each month that passed me by and knowing unemployment would not last for ever things did look grim to me but I still gave thanks to God.

I bought my home at age twenty three and I felt proud you know. But according to my background this world tells people like me I cannot own my own home nor have a good paying job but against all odds I have done well and had laugh at this world.

I believe God had removed my footing and knocked me down and cause me to fear thinking I was going to loose everything. It was important for me to know it was not of me that I owned my home or sustained what I have but it was God who gave me these things, God even gave me the employment to obtain these things.

Beloved, I dare not answer your question saying that if God had not sent me work and my life was going down the tubes that I would say this is a good thing God is doing. I would hope that I would say that but I don’t know God had not brought me to this point.

One thing I will say is this as I saw my bank account dwindle I became much closer to God. I realize I need God not only for the next life but right here and now. I ’am His creature I look with expectancy for everything I need from the hand of God.

I trust my Lord and my God for my life and I also trust God to resurrect me also after I’ am dead too. It is God who is the giver of all things.

But this thread was about me boating about the wonders and reliability of our God and what He is doing in my life not what He has not done.

                                            In God’s love. Richard.

Beloved:

The fish would have had indigestion, It was hungry for Joah    ;D

Yes all of our "bank accounts" are dwindling.  I am not speaking theory I had a very same expereience...I was taken all the way down to 400.00 in cash and credit cards, no place to live....so been there done that....it took me to where I am in the present, and I do not look back at all I once had.

It is so hard to give God Glory at those times...when we have nothing it should be easier to Concentrate and Look only at God. 

The problem is satan like to rub your nose in all the bad things that are going on.  He knows that we have such limited imaginations that we can not fathom what gloriuous things God may have in store. for us ...so what do we do.....we focus on the pitful state we were in before all the thing went wrong and long for these.

Our little lives here on earth...are subatomic events in relation to ages of ages. Our belongings, our jobs are all cosmic dust. God will restore everything and the way he does it will marvel all.  Everything that has happened will be prefected all to the Glory of God.

All of us here at BT have things that God has done for each of us.
We all boast of our Most loving Father and His Son Lord and Savior.....we can do nothing else.  We rejoice in everything that he is doing for you, this website is replete with wondrous blessings and also serious trials

This boasting is not just something for "general discussion"....this is paise and worship.

We have to stand on His word

(Col 1:16)  because by Him all [things] were created, the [ones] in the heavens and the [ones] on the earth, the visible [things] and the invisible [things], whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities; all such things have been created through Him and for Him,

(Col 1:17)  and _He_ is before all [things] and all [things] are held together by Him.

This is the psalm that Jeus sung as He went out to Gethsename

(Psa 118:24)  This is the day, which Yahweh hath made, We will exult, and be glad therein.
(Psa 118:25)  Ah now, Yahweh, do save, we beseech thee, Ah now, Yahweh, do send success, we beseech thee!

He sang this knowing that they were coming for Him that night.

Jackie, You are so right! When, we think it is over bingo there it is to knock back down. We daily die don't we? I know without a doubt now that the Holy Spirit is doing this cause I can't. George gave us some good verses to think about.

Everyone on here is a Blessing to me. I know my Mother does not understand this. My husband, is ok with it. But, I know he doesn't understand it. He believes in god, but he doesnt understand it. He has never liked to read books so he really doesn't read the Bible.

My husband, hasmany beautiful traits. I always have wished I had. He is very patient, he is always happy for the most part even in bad times. He doesn't judge people or talk about them. He forgives easy turns the other cheek.
One thing he had not studied the Bible and learned some of the Babylon teachings and had to have his mind changed to understand scriptures properly.
When, I told him there is no Hell he did not even act surprised. I have been a control freak and didn't even realize it for a long time.

All, I know it had to be God who sent me here. I definitely don't see me as an elect. However, something has put a desire in me to run the race. Now, I have a bad spine and bad knees and hips, I am glad I dont have to do that. But, I believe this race is even harder then that would be. It is a every day race all day long except when I sleep. LOL But, just want to say he has showed me so many times I could trust him and then I would still fail him. I can defintely see since I am in here my journey unfolding.

Ray is right many people come in here and read and don't believe. I would not have been able to without the Holy Spirit. I know cause I believed all the trash of Babylon. I don't think it is any mistake that any of us are in here. I just pray every day I don't give up. But, I believe he is able to do it in me. Where,befroe I tried on my own.

In His Love,
Marlene

P.S. each and everyone of you are a joy to me. I have people who are going through this with me. My family will listen some,but not much. I love how we can share our stories and our trials. I wish I could hug all you personally. Maybe sometime  I can.

Jackie Lee - Not i dear Sister; (Thank God for enabling us to even see these Truths and understanding them).

Richard - we must diminish so: (The Lord will show His Promise to The Whole World in us).

Beloved - It is amazing what the Scriptures you are quoting are doing for me daily (To God Be The Glory).

Beloved - Can i borrow your creation and modify it? (smilies)

george.
