A friend forwarded me the information below which Joel Rosenberg posted on his Flash Traffic blog. I had read either last year or the year before on Yahoo Finance that China was starting to build its military forces and that they have many barges filled with mineral resources [coal/copper/etc] sitting at docks all around their coastline. They are also accumulating gold, large diamonds, and water. What is also interesting to me is that some translations of the Old Testament [Covenant/the Hebrew Tanakh] say “Gog” in verses like Yechezk’el [Ezekiel] 38:18 while an Aramaic translation I like says “China” [Holy Bible from the Ancient Eastern Text – George Lamsa]. One possibility could be that Gog and Magog were ancient tribes of modern China. Continue reading

George Muller – German Evangelist in the 1800’s
I had a friend tell me about this man and I read the Wikipedia information on him which I have included below. I encourage you to read his whole story. What is especially of interest to me is his faith in Elohim’s (Hebrew word for God) providing for him and those in his charge. I have struggled with wanting to be led by HIM and trying to let HIM lead, but then I get worried or impatient if something doesn’t happen in my timing, and I move forward on my own and then wonder if I have angered HIM or if HE has had it with me and my lack of trust. I truly believe HE can do ANYTHING and to have the faith of a mustard seed for HIM to move mountains through me would be humbling. Continue reading
The Truth About Yoga
The information and link below is from an article written by a person who used to practice yoga until he found out that he was actually worshiping Hindu gods and opening himself up to demons using him. Ghosts are not spirits of deceased people, they are demonic spirits who are deceiving people – see My Story Part 2 [and future studies]. Our ELOHIM [Hebrew word for GOD and who I believe is FATHER/SON/SPIRIT] makes HIMSELF very clear that HE is the only one that should be worshiped. Did you know that even the greeting “namaste” involves worship. You bow slightly to the other person and say this word whose meaning goes into the belief that the god in me recognizes the god in you! http://hinduism.about.com/od/artculture/p/namaste.htm Continue reading
My story – part 2 – on my own
“Do not love the world or the things of the world. If someone loves the world, then love for the Father is not in him: because all the things of the world – the desires of the old nature, the desires of the eyes, and the pretensions of life – are not from the Father but from the world. And the world is passing away, along with its desires. But whoever does God’s will remains forever.” I Yochanan [I John] 1:15-17. I was 21 and looking to get out of the “emotional black hole” that was my parent’s house that I felt was sucking the life from me. I had just started dating and was naive and emotionally/socially immature because of lack of socialization and how my mother schooled me. My father had wanted me to join the Navy but I wanted to be on my own, away from authority that I did not agree with. Continue reading
Leket Israel – Food Bank Program [formerly called Table to Table]
This organization looks amazing. It was started by one man out of the back of his car and now serves approximately 140,000 meals weekly from food that would have been wasted! The amount of food wasted everywhere is staggering and this site is proof that it can feed the masses and proof that one person can move mountains [in this case – food]. I applaud them for what they are doing with getting fresh produce to people and healthy food to poor school children. In Jerusalem, there are many street vendors and shops that sell fresh squeezed orange, carrot, and other juices which are healthier than the soft drinks people tend to consume. I noticed when I was involved with getting food to poor people in Louisiana that it could be appalling what they were being fed by others, even through churches and the food bank. Many peoples diets today are horrible. They are killing themselves and their loved ones over not spending the time learning how to eat right, shop right, cook right. You can have a busy schedule and still make food from scratch and healthy if you plan a little and even get the whole family involved. Continue reading
