Steps of a Good Man are Ordered by the LORD

Steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord

“The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.”
–Psalm 37:23

What does it mean that the “steps of a righteous (good) man are ordered by the LORD“?

Ordered, or directed, or disposed, i.e. so governed as to attain the end and happy issue at which he aims. Or, strengthened, or established, so as he shall not stumble nor fall into mischief; for still he seems to be describing, not their virtue, but their felicity.
Matthew Poole Commentary

The righteous man will not fall into mischief or what most men call “misfortune.” When an unlooked-for event DOES occur, the believer knows that God is always working everything out for the best for the believer–even if the event doesn’t look so good immediately.

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
–Romans 8:28

One of the ways a man can know God is ordering his steps: the feeling of peace. The righteous are no longer restless; much carelessness come from being restless.

Restlessness is a sign of the wicked.

“But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.”
–Isaiah 57:20

Another way God orders the steps of the righteous (other than a feeling of peace): the good man has a patience he never enjoyed so long as he was lost. Steady, patience people at peace with themselves and their surroundings have less accidents and are less likely to have “run-ins” with the people they encounter.

God WILL order the steps of the righteous man.

And those ordered steps will mean a lot less bad things happening in the lives of that man.

“He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.”
–1Samuel 2:9

Does the reader have peace or turmoil in his life?

THE GOSPEL

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:”
–2Corinthians 4:3

Martyrs: End Times Choices

Martyrdom in the end times

“and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.”
–Revelation 20:4

ETERNAL JOY OR DAMNATION?

Contrary to popular belief and propaganda from the churches/media/education, Christians have always been very few. There are not millions of Christians sitting in church pews each Sunday across the land.

There are tares.

This will become obvious as the end times near their climax.

Those who refuse to preach the gospel and who deny Jesus when times are good will not likely change when times get bad.

Which is exactly why times will get bad: to separate the wheat from the pretending chaff.

“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:”
–Revelation 6:9

There will be martyrs, which is a good thing.

No doubt, there will be some who will surprise their friends, family and neighbors by losing their lives (by martyrdom) in order to save them (eternally).

When a choice has to be made, there will be a few who at last make the right choice. They will find that God strengthens those all who he calls for such glory.

They will not deny Jesus and will secure for themselves eternal life and joy.

“For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory”
–2Corinthians 4:17

Oh, make no mistake: there are those who make it through the coming chaos.

“And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven. “
–Mark 13:26-27

But who knows who will be asked to lose their lives and who will be asked to make other sacrifices?

The time for making those choices is approaching.

What choice will the reader make?

Will he stand up for Jesus Christ? Or will he decide to add a few months onto this present woe of a life and deny Him?

The pressure will be to choose a few months over eternal life; to cling to this fast-dissolving world, with its tears and sorrows, over an eternity of joy; to choose eternal torment in exchange for a few more months of this present world.

Will the reader choose Jesus Christ?

The time fast approaches.

“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”
–Revelation 12:11

Time is Running Out: Today is the Day of Salvation

THE GOSPEL

False Ministries: Beware End Times Deceptions

End Times False Ministries: A tool of the enemy

“Let no man deceive you by any means”
–2Thessalonians 2:3

The end times are a time of great deception.

The Bible warns the deception extends to the people who inhabit the buildings called the churches.

“Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils”
–1Timothy 4:1

The deception involves the people running these pagan temples.

“For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.”
–Acts 20:29

The deception extends to a number of organizations popular among the pew-sitters: the various “ministries.”

“For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”
–2Corinthians 11:13-15

These “ministries” offer to do the work of the Holy Spirit.

Because so many are not Christians, they do not have the Holy Spirit (which takes up residence within the believer upon conversion). Because so many do not have the Holy Spirit, they lack the gifts the Holy Spirit routinely provides believers.

Some of these ministries include

  • Deliverance ministries
  • Discernment ministries
  • Healing ministries
  • Evangelical ministries

This list is suggestive, not exhaustive. There are other types of these organizations.

1- Deliverance ministers offer to do the work any Christian can do with the aid of the Holy Spirit.

Because so many are counterfeits, they do not have the Holy Spirit and sometimes enlist such ministries to deal with demons and familiar spirits.

2- Discernment ministries offer to do the work any Christian can do by with the aid of the Holy Spirit (which will lead the believer into all truth).

Because so many are counterfeits, they do not have the Holy Spirit and will enlist these groups to “discern” for them: to tell them what is right and wrong.

3- Healing ministries are one of the biggest frauds among the fake and phony churches. The number of stories concerning faked healing would fill a room full of books.

The “successful” faith healers rely on familiar spirits, confidence tricks, staying ahead of the pack, superior public relations and the gullibility/hope of those who chase them.

4- Evangelical ministries conduct revivals among the churches, offering to “a revival of the Spirit” when they come to town as well as other unbiblical acts.

False ministries depend on those in attendance NOT having the Holy Spirit.  IF they did, these “revival preachers” would be sent packing.

All of these ministries count on–and prey upon–those who do not have what the Bible declares all believers to have: the Holy Spirit.

Beware false ministries!

They are tools of the enemy.

Is the reader depending upon the Holy Spirit?

Or is the reader depending upon the schemes of man?

SATAN’S MOUTHPIECE: The Corporate Media

Trump’s new finance chair donated to Hillary Clinton; donated more to Democrats than Republicans – A LOT of unfavorable Trump trivia will be unleashed over the next few weeks.

Hang on for a wild ride!

Trump not only makes Hillary Clinton look good, he makes any number of other (probably otherwise unelectable) politicians look good as well: Paul Ryan, Jeb Bush, Ted Cruz, Rick Perry, Marco Rubio: the list goes on…

HOWEVER, THERE IS A LONG, LONG TIME before the election.  A lot of things can (and most likely will) happen–especially at the conventions.

Americans are suckers for “historic” events: they love to be part of history.

“During his victory speech, Donald Trump said he wants to “bring unity to the Republican Party.” Trump said, “I’ve loved the Republican Party ever since I joined it eight months ago.”
–Conan

Democrats tie Trump to vulnerable GOP Senate candidates – One is tempted to say “buyer’s remorse!

EXCEPT it is not fair to blame Trump on the American people: Trump never received very many real votes.  From the beginning, he was a selected candidate showcasing the corruption of the USA’s electoral system to all except those who refuse to see.

“After winning the Indiana primary, Donald Trump is now set to become the first major-party nominee without political experience since Dwight Eisenhower, who was a five-star general during World War II. When Trump heard that, he was like, “Big deal, I’m gonna be president for World War III.”
–Jimmy Fallon

THE WORLD IS NOT AS IT APPEARS

World is not as it appears

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.”
–1John 2:15-16

This world is not as it appears.

This world, the things of this world and all that this world represents are enemies of God.

But the world doesn’t admit to its wickedness: the world pretends it is good and loving and true. But the world gives itself away whenever it encounters Jesus Christ or one of His followers.

Because the world hated Jesus Christ Himself first.

“If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.”
–John 15:18

The believer knows he is not of this world. Oh, he might forget it for a short time while engrossed in a task, but a trip into the world is all it takes to remind one that this world hates Jesus Christ and all who follow Him.

“If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.”
–John 15:19

All who look like sheep are not.

All who appear as angels of light are not.

All who smile are not friends.

This world is not as it seems.

“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.”
2 Corinthians 11:14-15

FROM TWO YEARS AGO

HAUNTED HOUSES WHICH ARE NOT

Pittsburgh family tells story of living inside demon-possessed house – Here’s the question all stories like this have to answer: Is it Biblical that an inanimate object can be possessed?  That’s also the question that all “haunted house” stories have to answer.  According to the Bible, demons HATE being outside of a human body.

“When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none.”
Matthew 12:43

So, the next question to ask is: if demons aren’t hanging around a house for decades, “haunting” and waiting for a human body to happen by, then where do these “hauntings” originate?  If the demons are not hanging out at the house waiting for someone to show up, how do they get to the house?

One answer is another question: How many Bible-believing born-again Christians have been the object of hauntings?

Here’s the deal: The only entities in a “haunted houses,” are the ones people bring with them.

MEDIA NARRATIVES ALERT

“How can the reader know when the Corporate Media is lying to him (never mind the fact that the media is Satan’s Mouthpiece and Satan is the father of lies)? One easy way to tell is the use of “Why” and “How” in the headlines of an article. When the reader sees “Why?” or “How?” in the headline–occasionally “What” is used–that which follows will be a fairy tale, a narrative, a bedtime story spun by the media for the benefit of the media’s master. “Why” usually denotes an on-going narrative; “How” signifies a story line which explains past events. Not all narratives begin with “How” or “Why.” However, the most in-your-face, over-the-top ones usually do. ALL political “news” is narrative.
