But because you are stubborn and refuse to turn from your sin, you are storing up terrible punishment for yourself. For a day of anger is coming, when God’s righteous judgment will be revealed. He will judge everyone according to what they have done. Romans 2:5-6 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Prayer: Thank you Jesus that You are a judge who passes judgment in a fair and unbiased manner. May the wicked be repaid seven time more for their vile deed which causes so much suffering to the innocent. I sincerely request this in the name of the Supreme Judge, Jesus Christ. Amen
May you have a grateful heart towards He who has given so much to you. indeovi vas ( may you live with Jesus in Latin )

George Whitfield, the eighteenth century evangelist, was correct when he said, “If the unregenerate man could enter heaven, he would be so unhappy in heaven, that he would ask God to let him run down to hell for shelter.”
How could the enemies of God sit down at the banquet of the Lamb of God?
Universalism wants us to bury our heads in the sand.
The carnal mind is enmity against God all the time. So why would such a person ever want to be in God’s holy presence? It is against everything God is for in His universe. It sets the world system and all it teaches in opposition to the LORD God.
The carnal mind is a “depraved spirit that is set on those things which are not proper” (Romans 1:28). How would you know one if you saw it? Romans 1:29-32 says, “Being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.”
It is a dreadful picture of human depravity. The apostle then declared, “Therefore you have no excuse, every one of you who passes judgment, for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. And we know that the judgment of God rightly falls upon those who practice such things” (Romans 2:1-2).
There is a day coming when “God will judge the secrets of men through Christ Jesus” (v. 16). It is not because we do not deserve it. The Bible testifies that we are all guilty. “But because of your stubbornness and unrepentant heart you are storing up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who will render to each person according to his deeds” (Romans 2:5-6).
After a detailed presentation of our sins against us in Romans chapter three, the apostle Paul concludes, “But glory and honor and peace to everyone who does good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For there is no partiality with God” (Romans 2:10-11). “You who boast in the Law, through your breaking the Law, do you dishonor God?” (Romans 2:23).
How many of us have not wished in the depths of our hearts, “Would to God these sins were not forbidden!” Spurgeon asked, “Who among us has not been so foolish as to desire that there were no God?”
But neither solution makes the problem go away. We still stand guilty before God. “Every carnal mind in the world is at enmity against God.”
The carnal mind declares that by our very nature we are the child of evil. What part of man was affected by the fall? The entire man, every part of him – every power, every passion is at enmity with God. You may say, “Oh, Wil, I am not really that bad.” God says, “The heart is deceitful above all things.” It is desperately wicked.
Why would any carnal person want to be in the holy presence of a righteous God? It would mean to be guilty and condemned twenty-four hours a day. We would never be able to escape His holy, hot wrath. Our sense of guilt would always be a state of awareness.
The only solution to the desperate plight of man is to have a new mind and a new heart. If we have not experienced a change of heart, our carnal mind will always be at enmity against God.
Our thoughts, our decisions, our behaviors all testify that we deserve God’s holy wrath. Every person born into this world deserves God’s wrath and damnation.
Because we are guilty sinners, God must provide the solution. Since the carnal mind is at enmity with God, salvation cannot be by any merit on our part. It must be by God’s grace through faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. If we are at enmity with God, what merit can we have? How can we deserve anything from the person we hate? Therefore, God must step in and rescue us by His grace.
The Spirit of God must lay His hand on you and renew your heart or there is no chance of your entering into heaven.
Jesus Christ can make peace through His blood. If the Spirit of God has convinced you of your sin as you read this, you can become a new creature, a new person, with a new heart if you will ask Jesus Christ to be your Savior.
By our physical birth we are at enmity with God, but by the new birth we are made His friend. Our nature must be changed if we are to enter into God’s holy presence. Here is the most precious promise for every sinner to believe. “As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; so that whoever believes will in Him have eternal life” (John 3:14-15).

That is not a beautiful word. It means that the corruption of sin has extended to all aspects of our nature, including our entire being. Because of that corruption there is nothing man can do to merit or influence in any way a saving relationship with a holy God.
The fallen person’s relation to a holy God has been radically affected. Because of the effects of the fall, man’s original relationship with God was broken and our entire nature was polluted. As a result of the Fall of man, no individual can do anything, even religious things, that will merit salvation, or eternal life, in God’s sight. There is nothing an individual can do to influence in a positive way a right relationship with God. No action that man does, no matter how good or religious can gain favor with God for salvation.
We see the depravity of mankind most clearly in the rejection of Jesus Christ in John 1:11. “He came to His own, and those who were His own did not receive Him.”
Spiritual depravity is demonstrated by the willfulness and spiritual blindness of everyone apart from the grace of God. The cross of Jesus Christ is the response of fallen man to the goodness of God (1 Cor. 2:14).
How far did man fall? The Bible tells us that when man fell into sin he fell all the way to the bottom and there he lies hopelessly lost, blind and spiritually dead, unable to help himself until God reaches down by grace, lifts him up and gives him spiritual life through the new birth (Rom. 3:9-18).
Left to ourselves we are not the least bit righteous. Sinful man has no ability to save himself (Jn. 1:13). We are corrupted by sin and in rebellion against God.
The apostle Paul tells us how our sinfulness affects a holy God. “The wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness” (Romans 1:18). The wrath is revealed against us because we are without excuse (vv. 18-32; cf.1:18; 2:5, 8; 3:5; 4:15; 5:9; 9:22; 12:19; 13:4-5).
The reality and terror of the wrath of God is emphasized in both the Old and New Testaments.
The Bible places emphasis on the wrath of God as a strong and settled opposition to all that is evil. This holiness comes from God’s very nature. He is a holy and righteous God.
The wrath of God is that in His character that is in absolute opposition to all that contradicts His holiness.
God does not flare up with red hot anger as human beings do, but His wrath is described in the Bible as a firm, fearful, hatred of all wickedness that builds up and will one day result in eternal condemnation of all who reject His grace and mercy provided through the atoning death of His Son, Jesus Christ.
Robert Haldane said, “The wrath of God was revealed when the sentence of death was first pronounced, the earth cursed and man driven out of the earthly paradise, . . but especially by the reign of death throughout the world. It was proclaimed by the curse of the law on every transgression and was intimated in the institution of sacrifice and in all the services of the Mosaic dispensation. . . . The whole creation has become subject to vanity and groans and travails together in pain. . . But above all, the wrath of God was revealed from heaven when the Son of God came down to manifest the divine character, and when that wrath was displayed in His sufferings and death in a manner more awful than by all the tokens God has before given to His displeasure against sin.”
Biblical Christianity is God reaching down to save perishing sinners, not men and women reaching out to Him. Jesus Christ died for those who deserve God’s wrath. His death is fully adequate to cover all our sins and depravity and to reconcile us to God (1 John 1:6-9; Rom. 3:21-26; 5:12-21).
Jesus Christ is our only hope. Be sure and read the label. There is a day coming when men are warned to flee the wrath of God (2 Thess. 1:6-10; 2:11-12; Heb. 10:29-31). The coming of Jesus Christ a second time will be suddenly and unexpectedly. Some will meet Him as their Judge and other as their Savior.
If you have never put your trust in Jesus Christ for eternal life I pray that you will right now. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you shall be saved today from the wrath of God for all eternity.

“If you refuse to listen to the Lord your God and to obey the commands and decrees he has given you, all these curses will pursue and overtake you until you are destroyed. These horrors will serve as a sign and warning among you and your descendants forever. If you do not serve the Lord your God with joy and enthusiasm for the abundant benefits you have received Deuteronomy 28: 45-47 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
“The Lord himself will send on you curses, confusion, and frustration in everything you do, until at last you are completely destroyed Deuteronomy 28: 20 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
The Lord will strike you with wasting diseases, fever, and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, and with blight and mildew. These disasters will pursue you until you die. Deuteronomy 28: 22 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
“The Lord will afflict you with the boils of Egypt and with tumors, scurvy, and the itch, from which you cannot be cured. The Lord will strike you with madness, blindness, and panic. You will grope around in broad daylight like a blind person groping in the darkness, but you will not find your way. You will be oppressed and robbed continually, and no one will come to save you. Deuteronomy 28:27-29 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
The Lord spoke to me a while back concerning my family. Let us just say they are so wicked even black sheep would be ashamed of them. I know God warned them about their bad behavior through reading the Bible, He sent others to warm them about their bad behavior. He spoke to them through dreams. He gave them signs.
They refused to listen.
Then, their destruction came upon them quickly and there was no cure. They suffered for about 7-8 years like they never suffered before. Then, when it was time for them to die, they died a slow agonizing death. I have witnessed this amongst their friends as well.
Beware. God is a God of justice. You cannot lie your way out of it. There is no plea bargaining nor parole for unrepentant sinners. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah
And the heavens proclaim his righteousness, for he is a God of justice. Psalm 50:6The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah El Gemuwal (Jeremiah 51:56 The LORD GOD of Recompenses ) that You are faithful to Your word to give back as was given. I praise You in the name of He who decides whether gives entry to Heaven or casts down to Hell, Jesus Christ. Amen May you have a grateful heart towards He who has given so much to you.

This morning the Lord spoke to me. And, this is what He said:
The tribe of Dan means to judge. Dan: The Hebrew verb דין Deen means “to judge” This is the root of the name דן dan (#1835), meaning a “judge,” By Jeff A. Benner
The tribe of Dan will also be warriors that will fight and be victorious over their foes.
Dan will be a snake beside the road, a poisonous viper along the paththat bites the horse’s hoovesso its rider is thrown off. Genesis 49:17 The Holy Bible, The New Living Testament
Once a cavalry man is thrown off of his horse he is pretty much defeated.
The tribe of Dan was the one of the original settlers of Russia.
Putin is the sword of the Lord punishing the west for their filthy lifestyle such as embracing homosexuality, trying to force one world government on us (WEF is satanic and as such is warring against Gods children and thus God ). For forcing the toxic vaccine in the scamdemic which has ruined millions of men and womens lives.
The Lord is using Putin as a judge passing judgment upon the decadent west .
If you follow the war on a YouTube channel HT ( Hindu Times ) it seems as if every move the west ( and it is NATO and the U.S.A that is fighting this war ) Putin knows what they are doing and check mates them. He keeps on throwing them off of their horses and defeats them.
For the last two days prior to this all of the devotionals were on how God punishes the wicked.
Selah: Stop and think about it.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Elohim Shophtim Ba-arets (Psalms 58:11 GOD that Judgeth in the Earth ) for using a nation to bring about the destruction and punishment of the wicked ones who arrogantly believe they are gods and no one can touch them. They delight in causing suffering.
I pray Lord that You inflict them with the most slow, painful death as punishment for all the suffering and death they are responsible for.
I praise You and humbly request this in the name of The Supreme Judge, Jesus Christ. Amen

You are not a God who is pleased with the wicked; you do not live with those who do evil. Those people who make fun of you cannot stand before you. You hate all those who do evil. You destroy liars; the Lord hates those who kill and trick others. Psalms 4: 4-6 The Holy Bible The New Life Version
Another word for not pleased is very angry.
Is it not logical that a God of love and justice be very angry and those who are selfish and corrupt, the two go hand in hand?
Does not The Holy Spirit dwell in those who belong to Christ?
Then how can He dwell in those who are following satan to Hell?
Do not the stupid, and to reject Jehovah has to be the stupidest thing anyone can do, laugh at Poppa and His children?
Because Poppa is a God of Justice do you not think the wicked are going to suffer both in this life and in the eternal one for their vile deeds?
History dictates that they will.
Seleh- stop and think about it.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Elohim Shophtim Ba-arets (Psalms 58:11 GOD that Judgeth in the Earth ) that You are a true God of Justice. Thank you that the wicked shall receive what is their just due while the righteous will be rewarded for their due. I praise You in the Righteous name of the Supreme Judge, Jesus Christ. Amen

I agree with Winston Churchill who said: “ The only thing we learn from history is that we never learn.’
If you read history we always go in cycles of when societies become liberal it is always followed by wars, disease that wipes out millions, financial markets collapse, crops fail. This leads to total disaster world wide.
It is that time again.
Terrible things will happen to you in the future when you do what the Lord says is evil, and you will make him angry with the idols you have made.” Deuteronomy 31:29 The Holy Bible The New Life Version
Now is the future.
What idols do we have?
Well, we have consumerism where many in society place more value on things and little on each other. They use people and worship things.
As well, we worship homosexuality. When society embraces such unnatural things it always brings destruction upon families ( which is the back bone of any good society ) and disease to the populations like syphilis. The society becomes weak and collapses. Look it up in the past two hundred years and see the pattern.
We have corrupt judges that make decisions based upon their feelings instead of based upon Gods Law and take bribes to boot.
Jehovah will only tolerate this for so long and then look out. We encourage destructive behaviour like drug abuse.
How much drug abuse is because of big pharma so they can make the all mighty dollar?
They encourage laziness.
Look how the governments are handing out money for some to sit at home and get drunk or high.
I will pour out my anger against you; I will carry out my anger against you. I will judge you for the way you have lived and will make you pay for everything you have done that I hate. I will show no pity, and I will not hold back punishment. I will pay you back for the way you have lived and the things you have done that I hate. Then you will know that I am the Lord who punishes. Ezekiel 7:8–9 The Holy Bible The New Life Version
That is why the Lord says: “Look, I am planning trouble against such people, and you won’t be able to save yourselves. You will no longer walk proudly, because it will be a terrible time. Micah 2:3 The Holy Bible The New Life Version
Jesus said: “I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as well.” Luke 13:5 The Holy Bible The Christian Standard Bible
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Machsi (Psalms 91:9 The LORD My Refuge ) that when the self inflicted disaster strikes the liberal minded in punishment for their rejection of following You directions, You shall be a refuge for Your children and protect us from this calamity. I praise You in the name of He who protected His disciples in the storm on the lake, Jesus Christ. Amen

Everyone lies to his neighbors; they say one thing and mean another. Psalms 12:2 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
They say, “Our tongues will help us win. We can say what we wish; no one is our master.” Psalms 12:4 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
Can you imagine a politician answering a question truthfully?
Can you imagine an entire newscast or daily paper publishing an entire paper without any lies?
Can you imagine if companies told you the truth about their products?
Can you imagine if teachers taught the truth to their students instead of brain washing them with the politically correct nonsense ( and it is no- sense as it is not sensible )
Wow, what an earth shattering day that would be huh?
Can you imagine if the health officials told us the truth about the covid vaccines?
They are arrogant and think they have impunity and are getting away with it.
Can you imagine if they were held accountable for their lies?
Do not worry, they are.
Jehovah is a just judge and there is no manipulating their way out of their punishment.
The Lord will stop those flattering lips and cut off those bragging tongues. Psalms 12:3 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
But the Lord says, “I will now rise up, because the poor are being hurt. Because of the moans of the helpless, I will give them the help they want.” Psalms 12:5 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
But the wicked are all around us; everyone loves what is wrong. Lord, you will keep us safe; you will always protect us from such people. Psalms 12:8-7 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah El Gemuwal (Jeremiah 51:56 The LORD GOD of Recompenses ) that the wicked shall receive their appropriate punishment for their vile deeds. I praise You in the name of He whose anger is hot against these wicked souls, Jesus Christ. Amen Seleh stop and think about it.

There is a way which looks right to a man, but its end is the way of death. Proverbs 14:12 The Holy Bible The New Living Testament
Do you remember about the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and the towns around them?
The people in those cities did the same things. They were full of sex sins and strong desires for sinful acts of the body. Those cities were destroyed by fire. They still speak to us of the fire of hell that lasts forever. Jude 1:7 The Holy Bible The New Living Testament
Today, many are scratching their heads and wondering how so many selfish, arrogant politicians are getting elected.
Could it be that birds of a feather lock together. The politicians are of the same manner as most in society today. They are spoiled, gimme, gimme ( while offering nothing in return ), lazy, ungrateful brats. They pull temper tantrums when they do not get their own way and run like cowards while screaming we are abusing them ( everything wrong in the world is the white mans fault, I can do what I want ( try to con impressive children into destructive behaviour like homosexuality, be a boy and go into a girls washroom ), and intolerant of them because they refuse to accept the truth when we speak it.
Be fair warned.
History teaches that every time society goes down this path, it self destructs.
The righteous may suffer hard times because of this but they will not suffer the punishment of the wicked.
“At the core of liberalism is the spoiled child — miserable, as all spoiled children are, unsatisfied, demanding, ill-disciplined, despotic and useless. Liberalism is a philosophy of sniveling brats.”P.J. O’Rourke
Seleh.
Seleh means to stop and think about it. Let’s think about how many times we have thanked Jehovah for His gifts whether they be big or small. Let us stop and think of how many times we have offered our time, resources and or labour to Him as a gift of love and appreciation.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Bore (Isaiah 40:28 The LORD Creator ) for blessing me with The Holy Spirit to make me sensitive to the gifts You bless me with and how to use those gifts to help others as a way to show my appreciation unto You. I praise You in the name of He who offered His life so I may have an eternal one with You, Jesus Christ. Amen
