Place a brick in front of you.
Have you ever had the privilege of sharing bad news with a friend or loved one? Have you ever been celebrated for being the bearer of bad news?
Let’s say your friend has been on a soy protein shake based diet and wondering why he has more impressive man-boobs and has been singing the high notes in his favorite opera lately. Let’s just say that. For a while, you are silent. But one day, he ponders why his weight loss regime brings him 15 extra pounds.
Sitting in a virtual cubicle made of stacked protein powders, you present this possibility: Perhaps the phytoestrogens in soy, combined with the fact that he has been taking four servings a day for several months, is helping him sculpt his girlish (and plump) body.
If he’s teachable, he might listen to you. But, if your friend has the temperament like most dudes, he will likely be mad at you for suggesting that his new regimented diet (that he spent $700 on) has not been his friend.
People do not generally like correction.
God gave the prophet Ezekiel some oddly specific instructions. It takes a huge step of faith for the prophet to follow such instructions as grabbing a brick and doodling a picture of Jerusalem on it. Only a truly faithful prophet can continue by essentially playing Legos with that brick and building tiny siege towers and such. Only an obedient servant of God would lay on his side for 390 days at the instruction of God.
You know what?
“You shall eat it as barley cakes, and you shall bake it in their sight with dung that comes out of man.” Yahweh said, “Even thus will the children of Israel eat their bread unclean, among the nations where I will drive them.” - Ezekiel 4:12-13
I don’t know if the Ezekiel Bread at Whole Foods was prepared in this way, but if so, I’m back on Keto.
We are all made in the image of God. However, if we are fueling our spirit, our inner fire with dung, we have made ourselves common, and even unclean and detestable. If we dishonor our bodies with lustful sin and give our awe and service to idols, we have made ourselves undesirable.
Jesus is the True Bread Of Life and His Spirit is Pure Fire
The time for revival is here. It will take a wide-scale repentance. If the people of America will rise up in victory, we must bow down and admit our defeat. We have failed!
We have failed to protect our innocent.
We have failed to drive out demons from our education centers.
We have failed to knock down the idols from our high places.
We have avoided taking responsibility from the pulpits in our churches.
America is under siege!
Our borders are literally flooded with invaders. They are not good Catholic Mexican citizens in search of a better life. Many are not Mexican at all. It is obvious that we have a coordinated invasion by people who do not hold Biblical values in high esteem. Many do not hold life itself in high esteem. When the siege towers are being built, they must be burned. The walls of any community should be strong and defended by a strong arm.
How long will we be invaded?
Who knows how long we will see a freeway of foreign invaders, aided by domestic inciters of violence. However, we must do what we can.
Pray without ceasing. It is the most important weapon and more powerful than the gates of hell.
Reject the call for solutions which deflect from the real problem (pride, sinfulness) and stay focused on the Scriptures as your marching orders.
Call out the Anti-Christ spirit of Marxism. Evil doesn’t play fair. He likes to portray himself as a savior. How many personal and religious freedoms have gone away after a supposed beneficent cry against the weather (global warming) or a virus? Marxists continually create the crisis that they claim to solve. Keep in mind, their solution always (ALWAYS) includes releasing more of your own rights (property, privacy, religion, self defense, etc.).
Lift your hands to God…
and He will lift you up. Pray repentance, and turn from the sins of a few generations and forge a new way forward. We cannot exist without God’s blessing. His blessing is only promised to the faithful.
Return America! Repent… or eat the bread of your own baking!
