"STAND, SPEAK, AND SING" - A SPLENDID ADDRESS GIVEN BY SONYA AT "TURF" LAST NIGHT.

Last night at TURF, The Upper Room Fellowship above Creation in Cross Keys we had one of our fellowship members Sonya Stock (pictured below) giving an excellent talk on "STAND, SPEAK AND SING".

Basing her address around 2 Chronicles 20, Sonya urged us to follow the example of King Jehoshaphat of Judah when he was under attack from the enemies of Moab and Ammon.

The King was told by the Lord via the prophet Jahaziel to fear not, for the upcoming battle "is not your's but God's" (verse 15). As such, Judah and Jerusalem already had the victory because the enemy was defeated by the Lord Himself. It is the same with us today. Even though at times we find the going getting a little tough as the Devil seems to get the upper hand, this is when we must spiritually lift ourselves and know that we have the victory in Jesus who defeated Satan at Calvary's Cross.

Jehoshaphat was told to gather his armies, but not for warfare! They were to "Stand" in anticipation, not to fight (v17), to "Speak" out in praise of the Lord for their victory (verses 18-20), and then to "Sing" (verses 21-22) in thanksgiving for their triumph as the Almighty delivered them.

We too are to Stand, Speak, and Sing in praise and worship unto the Lord, for our battles are already won, Satan is defeated, and we worship a victorious God.

ROMANS 8: 22. CREATION GROANS.


                      Friday, 21 March 2014


              Romans 8: 22. 'The earth groans'

Who will believe that the reports of earthquake activity in 2014 would fit in perfectly with scripture?  Who will accept that what is going on within the bowls of planet earth is a fulfillment of doctrine and prophecy, the severe warnings from the intrinsic Sovereign God of creation, who is desperately wanting to get through to this sin-sick world, led by sin-sick world leaders, that the very world we live in is cracking up and His divine call for repentance is falling on deaf ears, and hardened hearts.
                                                                                                                                   Take heed lest there be in any one of you, an evil heart of unbelief..it says in Hebrews 3: 12.  Yes, that's exactly what the Bible does say about all those who refuse to believe ... you have an evil heart ... and need to deal with it fast. You need to do something about it right now before it's to late.

In the commentary of Yeshua to the four disciples on the Mount of Olives once upon a time, the Saviour of the world gave some very clear answers to some very clear questions.  This two part question was put to The Master:-  What will be the sign of your coming, and the end of the world? There followed a long list of events that must come to pass. Matthew 24: goes into much detail regarding the answer to that big all important question ... ''what will be the sign of your coming and the end of the world''  In the answer, Jesus Himself mentions there will be famines and earthquakes in many places.  Here, I shall just take one sign.

Whenever the subject of end times is brought up, how many have noticed that some are quick to say:-  ''No-one knows the hour or the day'' In other words, shut up, it's not important, no-one has any answers... Even though it is Christ who provided all the answers, many - ESPECIALLY THEM CHRISTIAN ONES - refuse to take the matter any further just because of that  'no-one knows the hour or the day' cliché.   It's as if those few words are the only words they have ever heard, or ever been taught, or have ever remembered from what read.  It's as if they have no further interest in the rest of what the Bible says, just those few words which closes and collapses the whole issue of end times.. Jesus did say that no-one would know the hour or the day, but He also gave a huge amount of other detail that we are to be armed with by knowing the signs (not the hour, nor the day) ... which was the nature of the question in the first place.

There is one particular sign that we need to pay very careful attention to and have respect for and it's the earthquake sign. Many people will shrug this off as being a relevant sign by saying ''Oh there's always been earthquakes, so that's nothing to go by'' .. Oh really?  It shows how uninformed those people are and have fallen under the delusion and deception of wishy washy personal thinking.

Let's take a look at the facts rather than the fallacies of cursory opinions. A few years ago when I was speaking on end times using this same scripture in Matthew 24, I asked the congregation if anyone could tell me how many earthquakes had taken place to their knowledge during the past week. Some said none, others said maybe ten... but of course they were only guessing.. I said no, not ten, I asked how many in the past week not the past few minutes. They were shocked to hear that nearly 200 earthquakes had happened in the last 7 days, even though none were reported in the media; but it was a few years ago.

It is now March 2014. Last month I heard there had had been an earthquake on the Greek island of Kefalonia, in a beautiful little holiday resort called Lixurion. That's the Greek name. A few years ago, my wife and I went to a place which was called Lixouri and wondered if it was the same resort.. It was, but the pictures now told a very different story to the photographs I took when we were there. Lixouri had been battered by at least 22 strong quakes.. So bad was it that 600 buildings were demolished by the earthquakes with after shocks ranging from 4.2 to 6.8 magnitudes, one after another, ofter with just seconds in between. But there was no mention of this on the news..... Why should there be?

Because of this, I decided to pay more attention to the quake and shake scenario and I learned that a total of 83 earthquakes had occurred in and around Greece within a period of just 12 hours.. They were all over the place, but 22 were in Lixouri.  There was nothing in the news about any of them.. It's as if the media deliberately kept things quiet not wanting to frighten people or reveal the truth of what was actually taking place. With those 83 quakes, there were 50 quakes between 4.0 and 6.8 on the Richter scale....well over 50%.. It provided clear Biblical evidence that earthquake activity is increasing rapidly in both velocity and frequency.. Even so, there will still be some people stuck in a stupor that will always be more than happy to say:-  ''Oh there's always been earthquakes, so it's nothing to go by'' ....  That's very Sadducee... [sad you see] ... indeed.

Psalm 46: 1 - 3. ''God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble...though the earth be removed...though the mountains are carried into the sea; though the waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof'' 
'Even the wind and the waves obey Him' Mark 4: 41.

Looking further ahead now on a more regular basis I find that this is going on:-

Ouch!  1,369 earthquakes in just 7 days.. Again, this figure includes ALL tremors.


And people will still be in ignorance to the fact that this world truly is groaning and travailing exactly as described in the Bible ... but who will believe our report.. How many will still reject the living word of the living God? 


On top of all this chaos, we have had a spate of sinkholes popping in all over the place.  But not to worry, it's only Romans 8:22 in action ... that's all. ''We know that the whole of creation (even the hole of creation) has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time''  That's the language of the Bible used to convey a message to this mess - age, but who will listen?  What happens in the natural sequence of events when the pains of childbirth comes to halt... The birth of something new begins.. Could all these events which are happening in Biblical proportions be the beginning of the end?  If so, and it has to happen sometime, there is only one answer to escape all that is coming upon the earth... 


Repent or perish.



One of the great end time doctrines found in Luke 21 is found in verse 36 and it says this:-  ''Be always on the watch , and pray, that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man''    Now I ask you, why would the Bible say we need to escape from something if there was nothing to escape from?  It is the wrath of God, and there is only one way of escape, and that is through 'The Door' .. who is  'The Way' .. Who is none other than Yeshua.   If you don't know this Son of Man, and if you do not receive Messiah who is Jesus, you will perish.. If you don't want to take this opportunity to receive Christ as your personal Saviour... All you have to do is nothing... Simple as that.. Do nothing and perish accompanied by eternal torment and punishment.. Listen to what the word of the Lord says in 2 Thessalonians 1: 7 - 9  ''The Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. These shall be punished with everlasting destruction  from the presence of the Lord''  Tis bad news... But the good news is this:-    ''For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotton Son [Yeshua] that whosoever believes in Him [Yeshua/Jesus] will not perish, but have everlasting life'' John 3: 16. 

Shalom and Maranatha to His church.. 
Posted in the very early hours of the morning .. Thursday March 13th 2014.. Time for bed!
  
To continue with the earthshaking experiences we should be mindful of what is prophetically written in Psalm 46 and Mark 4: 412.  We also need to understand that the wind and the sea obey the voice of God.. And when Almighty God speaks to the wind and the waves and says get yourself up to maximum speed and stand by to attack the coastlines of the UK.. Now go. The wind does not argue with the Master of the waves. When God says to the waves rise up and walk tall at about 30 foot high and smash into that railroad till it has no legs to stand on... Show this nation how powerful the Sovereign Lord is, and show them who is boss around here. 

You mighty winds get yourself a trip over to America and do exactly what I command you to do in the places I send you to go and release your power upon that nation. Let's do another spot check with the earthquake scenario on the west coast from Washington down through California into Mexico and increase your power of destruction as I command you to do.  This will be a wake-up call to America for the umpteenth time, most will not listen, but a few will get the message, sit up and take notice..

What else has happened? .. Within a couple of days of same-sex marriages being made MAN-DATE. Oops, pardon the pun!  London was hit by some very distasteful pollution with compliments of the Sahara desert in the shape of a nasty sand storm. Now I was sort of wondering, is the dear Lord saying ''You want a polluted Britain? Then let me supply all your polluted needs''  A little gift from me to you as a memorial...Go ahead and build your Britain on pollution and SAND rather than the ROCK!          

Is Almighty God pouring out His wrath upon the nations? Is this the beginning of sorrows?
