When our daughter was a baby, the pollsters numbered from 10 to some forty. Today they number in the 400 range. Finding recently one such noted pollster wrote that they performed an experiment just throwing false numbers to the media and the world! So what you think is true is very false indeed. Those numbers dividing the Democrats and Republicans is dead wrong.
But gas lighting has become a fad and one routine people
have chosen to greatly cheat their neighbor. Jeremiah
23:28 -34 NKJV the prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream; and he who
has My word, let him speak My word faithfully. What is the chaff to the wheat?”
says the LORD 29 “Is not my word like a fire?” says the LORD and like a hammer
that breaks the rock in pieces?” 30
“Therefore behold, I am against the prophets, says the LORD who steal My
words everyone from his neighbor. 31 “Behold, I am against the prophets,” says
the LORD, “who use their tongues and says, ‘He says.”
32 “Behold, I am
against those who prophesy false dreams,” says the LORD, “and tell them, and
cause My people to err by their lies and by their recklessness. Yet I did not
send them or command them; therefore they shall not profit this people at all,
“ says the LORD. 33 So when these people or the prophet or the priest ask you,
saying, ‘What is the oracle of the LORD?” you shall then say to them, “What
oracle?” I will even forsake you,” says the LORD. 34 “and as for the prophet
and the priest and the people who say, “The oracle of the LORD!’ I will even
punish that man and his house.”
From Jeremiah 23: 32 ………..cause MY people to err by their
lies and by their recklessness….Zephaniah
3:3-5 Her princes in her midst are roaring lions; her judges are evening
wolves that leave not a bone till morning.
1. They are
seeking prey to devour
2. Evening
denotes those predators who deal in darkness (own agenda) we have seen that
recently those serving in the House of Representatives….one’s own agenda to
making one rich on someone else.
3. Treachery
at night…in the dark…..( they flip as soon as they are elected)
4. ( we have men running for election speaking to change God's word: that God would welcome transgender.) No He would not! God does not make mistakes. This man has made himself a false prophet!
Description: Zephaniah 3: 4 Her prophets are insolent, treacherous people; her priests have polluted the sanctuary (profaned) they have done violence (activity)to the law. 5 The LORD is righteous in her midst, he will do no unrighteousness. Every morning He brings His justice to light; He never fails, but the unjust knows no shame.
We certainly see where the unjust knows no shame. They simply forget what they spoke. They will not account for every dark area of their lives in truth. As of 2019 and Covid -19….was an event of worldly proportions, it was the plot of a few to scare people world -wide, to control people, to lock people at home, make healthy people really sick unto death and to close a whole nation down. Children lost time in school where reading, math, science and English were to be acquired. Some six years later, we have young adults who cannot do math at the grocery register, cannot write their names as cursive which was not even taught to them due to computers, and they cannot read!
Gas lighting is for control. . Evil is pointed to by the finger of God. It is expressed in those with evil in mind to profit from a never ending cesspool of faithlessness. Yes, they make money and they do it to gain more power! This can be seen of those choosing to pad their own pockets that incites death for a community and possibly the world. Have we not seen that in the age of corona-virus? So the list can include” doctors, the pharmaceutical houses, booksellers, movie-makers and some lawyers of late!
I am amazed at what has come to be the Panavision of
adultery displayed for people of all ages to see and where there is no gasp or
a quickness to stop the pornographic pictures and slides of people on
billboards and on T.V. commercials. ( If you are overweight, why show me your fat? I probably have some of my own. Please!) There are people in tubs without clothes where the very young 4 and 5 year olds are free to view with no thought of the depravity of it. And
of course, satan, the author of depravity is behind this: with that emotion
stirring music, that partially clad couple which is supposed to be somehow
attractive and acceptable to those who have no spouse, or those looking for a
spouse where the oppressed want because they “deserve that better thing” and
are never thinking of the prospect that they are being duped into the world’s
thought system!
People do not want war in other countries, but they do not consider the War, the Murder, the Lying, the Stealing, the Coveting, and the Idolatry acts that almost everyone in the world would claim as being wrong yet, they appear constantly within schools, on the streets and within business transactions. Are we ready for what is coming in 2027? Do we know that war can be within city blocks, within schools, at board meetings and even grocery stores? Am amazed where so many innocents are being targeted by another's hate.
Have you ever had a conversation with another believer that
caused unrest in your spirit? Maybe it was when you started hearing about a
relationship or lifestyle – or even a new philosophy or perspective of theirs –
that gave you a sick feeling in your gut. ( One such is hearing someone say they are studying a book not in the Bible. ) Heard recently of two cities in California choosing to have throuples and quads. Yeah, new word, but implies two men and two women living under one household and not married to each other. Think God has not approved this thing?
Did you consider your internal response an indication that
you were being critical, judgmental, or intolerant of that brother or sister in
Christ? Or could it be that you have the gift of a spirit of discernment? We can know by discernment when the “lie”
appears. We can know by discernment truth and falsehood.
In 1 John 4:1, believers were exhorted to “not believe every
spriit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many
false prophets have gone out into the world.”
As believers today, you and I are to heed that instruction
to test worldly philosophies, foreign doctrines, and even new perspectives and
ideas that come out of the mouths of politicians, celebrities, community
leaders, and even pastors and religious leaders. We are to test everything that
comes through our television sets, over our radio waves, and across our laptops
and phone screens.
To have the spirit of discernment is to possess the ability
to judge well. We get our English word "aesthetic" from the Greek
word for discernment, meaning moral perception, insight, and the practical
application of knowledge.
1 Timothy 4:1 tells us: “The Spirit clearly says that in
later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things
taught by demons.” Thus, we are urged to “See to it that no one takes you
captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human
tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on
Christ” (Colossians 1:8).
In 1 Kings 3, when the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream and asked him to name whatever he desired, Solomon pleased God by asking for the spirit of discernment. Solomon’s words were “So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong…” (1 Kings 3:9). Solomon’s request for discernment so pleased the Lord that God not only gave Solomon a wise and discerning heart, but He also gave him what he didn’t ask for – “both wealth and honor – so that in your lifetime you will have no equal among kings” (1 Kings 3:13).
In the New Testament, Paul prayed that believers would have
and apply the spirit of discernment: “And this is my prayer: that your love may
abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able
to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ”
(Philippians 1:9-10).
Paul realized if believers were able to discern what is best
from what is just good or acceptable, they would be pure and blameless, and
stand apart from the rest of the world.
The Apostle John also urged the first century Christians to
practice the spiritual gift of discernment because of how quickly they could be
deceived if they weren’t grounded in the truth: “Dear friends, do not believe
every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because
many false prophets have gone out into the world” (1 John 4:1).
Scripture implies that if we are wise and walk in the ways
of the Lord, our lives are evidence of a spirit of discernment. “Who is wise?
Let them realize these things. Who is discerning? Let them understand. The ways
of the LORD are right; the righteous walk in them, but the rebellious stumble
in them” (Hosea 14:9). All spiritual
gifts are abilities that are empowered and enabled by the Holy Spirit and used
for the edification of the church.
To pray for discernment, we are to ask for it in faith, like
we would ask for anything (Matthew 21:22). We are also to ask for it with the
right motives. James 4:3 tells us “When you ask, you do not receive, because
you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.”
If you are asking God for anything, not really believing God
will give it to you, you are one who “should not expect to receive anything
from the Lord” (James 1:7). And if you ask so that you can wield a spiritual
super-power and appear more spiritual than others around you, that, too is not
pleasing to the Lord. But, when you ask
humbly, in faith, and with the motive of living a more holy life, God will hear
you (Matthew 21:22).
We have a large volume of people willing to lie, cheat, and
provide smoking mirrors to make another person think they are upright folks. We
must have discernment in this hour to
know where truth resides. In the atmosphere of Heaven, God can transform
your mind into the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16).
Let us remember 1 Timothy 4:1 telling us: “The Spirit clearly says that in latter
times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things
taught by demons.” Thus, we are urged to “See to it that no one takes you
captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human
tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on
Christ” (Colossians 1:8). Jesus is our guide into discernment. We should know
the words He has spoken, to keep revealing justice to those who revel in
lawlessness.
