For the last several weeks we’ve been looking at various aspects of end time prophecy. These messages have been produced to support the work we’re doing on our prophetic outreach ministry www.AmericaMustDie.com. If you haven’t requested you 6 free chapters of the book, please visit the website and claim them today. End time prophecy can be heavy going at times, especially when you come to the realization that before it’s all over, 90% of humanity will be dead. This realization can challenge the faith of even the most committed among us. However, at the end of Revelation we are given this message of hope “He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his Mighty One, and he shall be my son.” (Rev 21:7) This tells us that if we overcome we will become the son of YHWH and co-inheritor of creation alongside Y’HoWShUA!

We must overcome these assaults!   Possibly the greatest weapon he uses against us is ourselves. It always grieves me when I think back to the number of feast sites I have attended over the years where we allowed Satan to take away our joy through our own poor behavior.   In all these cases, the damage we caused to ourselves and the brethren at the feast was due to our own carnal natures being uncontrolled. Gossiping, back biting, tattle telling and divisive disputes over debatable doctrines were all causes of disruption and hurt.   If we are going to successfully come together in the unity of the faith as the Bride and Body of Messiah – THIS MUST STOP!   We have no control over our environment. What happens around us will always happen. But, we have total control over how we react to our environment! Gandhi said, “If we could change ourselves, the tendencies of this world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. … We need not wait to see what others do.”   This is often paraphrased as “Be the change you want to see in the world!” Either way the message is clear – we are the...
