Jesus Christ - Coming to Stay: A Look at Zechariah 14

  ‘Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven’ — Matthew 6:10 We recite this line every time we say the Lord’s Prayer. Do we understand what it means? We are asking … and declaring … that God’s kingdom is coming to earth, and that God’s will can override the will and ways of temporal earthly rulers. Just like it is in heaven.   Yet you can’t have a kingdom without a king. So in praying for the ‘kingdom to come,’ we are also implicitly asking for the Lord to come, too. Finally, you have to have a capital headquarters for the king and kingdom. Without question, it can be only one place: Jerusalem, the City of David, the City of God, and the City of the Great King (Psalm 48:2; Matthew 5:35).   Scripture is clear that God is coming to the earth. Psalm 96:13 : ' Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.’ God is going to judge the earth but not from His heavenly throne

Who Pulled the Trigger?: The Real Meaning of the Sixth Commandment - Part Two

With the attempted assassination of Donald Trump on 13 July 2024 in mind, it caused questions: Who is really responsible for this? Was it only the shooter? Or were others involved? What does the sixth commandment mean when it says, ‘ You Shall Not Murder ?’ In Part One , we named three of the four issues that lead to murder. Killer One - The Shooter :   The person who wields the weapon is normally responsible for murder, but not always. The executioner is not the ultimate killer. The army of Rabbah Ammon killed Uriah the Hittite but David the king was rightly blamed for his murder. Killer Two - Hateful Rhetoric:   ‘ Death and life are in the power of the tongue’ — Proverbs 18:21 . Hate in words can lead to harmful deeds. Killer Three - Fallen Human Nature :   Lust and greed lead to dangerous attitudes and actions.

Winning the Spiritual War Part 03: Slaying the Giants

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places - Ephesians 6:12 (ESV). In Part 01 we were introduced to the topic of spiritual warfare. We learned from Scripture that the Christian life is a walk of faith. It also is a constant fight. It is not a battle we have chosen but it is one we must fight to win.   Strong temptations are often more a sign of great grace, than of little grace. The forces of darkness do not rest and neither should we. Souls and nations are at stake. So the sooner we understand the problem and take up our spiritual equipment, the better off we will be.   The changes, challenges, conflicts and chaos we see on Earth are merely the proxy war of what is happening in the heavens. Deal with the heavenly adversaries and it will bring a breakthrough here below. If you want to read Part 01 , click this link: http

The Shooting of Donald Trump: Who’s To Blame?

Part One of Two Parts It was only a matter of time. This dreadful event had been predicted and prophesied. Prayer alerts went out to pray for supernatural protection. Then, on Saturday night, July 13th 2024, at an outdoor campaign rally for Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, several shots rang out. Pandemonium briefly ensued, and three men in the audience were hit. One of the men, Corey Camperatori, 50, an ex-fire chief, an enthusUS Election,iastic churchgoer and a family man, was fatally wounded while using his body to shield his wife and daughter. The other two were seriously injured but expected to recover. A bullet hit Trump but grazed his right ear; he missed death by millimetres.   What was at stake was more than the life of a prominent politician. America’s future hung in the balance with the prospect of civil war not far away. Unfortunately, assassinations and attempted assassinations are not a new phenomena. Four US Presidents were assassinated: Abraham Lincoln (1865); Jame
