And after the fire there was the sound of a gentle whisper. 1 Kings 19:12 The Holy Bible The New Living Translation
When The Holy Spirit speaks with you it is for your own good.
Most people refuse to listen because He is suggesting ( The Holy Spirit always suggests. He never demands. He is respectful and a gentleman not a tyrant Joseph- Anthony a Son of Jehovah ) they either do something or not do something because it is for their own good. Most people refuse to listen to The Holy Spirit when He tries to speak with them. They do so because they are selfish, stubborn and down right stupid. They do not want to obey Him.
Of course the end result of that is always the same, disaster.
That is when most people ask the stupidest question “ God why are you doing this to me?” No, that is not your conscience speaking with you with that soft whisper. If it is for your good it is The Holy Spirit. If it is for selfishness it is satan.
Most people are terrified of silence because that is when The Holy Spirit speaks with them and tells them things they do not want to hear. Joseph- Anthony a Son of Jehovah
Speaking personally, every time the Lord has spoken audibly with me it has always been in a soft whisper. That is why it is important to always have quiet times. Joseph- Anthony a Son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Kal El (voice of God Isaiah 30:21 ) for blessing me with The Holy Spirit who always speaks with me in a soft, reassuring voice to guide me down The Path to Heaven that You have chosen for me to travel. Thank you for guiding me to the place where we can enjoy quiet times together. I praise You in the name of He who I enjoy spending time walking with and talking with in Your creation, Jesus Christ. Amen
Seleh- stop and think about it.

So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Matthew 6:34 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
Earlier in the day my mom had a bad fall and a huge bump on the back of her head.
She was coming down the stairs and tried to use her walker on the top stairs as a stabilizer to get to the first stair. Of course she neglected to put the brakes on first.
I have been telling her for four years now to always put the brake on after she has finished walking ( which she never does ).
She fell down and got entangled in her walker on the first floor.
Having many years of medical experience I checked her out to see if she had any symptoms of a concussion. There was none. I checked on her every half an hour for six hours and there was no change.
When I went to bed and prayed on whether to take her to the hospital or not ( our local emergency ward is closed due to shortage of staff and the nearest other hospital ( which is short staffed ) is twenty miles away ( thank you to the government fools for firing the staff that was intelligent enough to refuse to get the covid scamdemic needle ) the devotional I was listening that evening before going to sleep from Grace For Purpose Prayers ( which is a fantastic site ) was about trusting Jehovah. It was as if Poppa was saying :” Do not worry about this, it is in my hands”
The next morning she was all black and blue from the fall but otherwise okay. Her doctor has told her she has a few cracked vertebra .
It has been five days now and “sometimes” she put the brake on but is slowly getting better at it.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah El Hayyay (Psalms 42:8 GOD of My Life ) that there is no need to worry about tomorrow or any other day because they are all in Your wise hands. I pray that I follow The Holy Spirits guidance when He softly whispers for me to do something ( like putting the brakes on the walker ) or to not do something ( like ignore Your warnings ) so as to avoid disaster which will cause me to suffer ( she is going to suffer for about three months because of this ). I praise You in the name of Your most obedient Son, Jesus Christ. Amen
Seleh. Seleh means to stop and think about it.

You will look in vain for those who tried to conquer you. Those who attack you will come to nothing. Isaiah 41:12 The Holy Bible The New Living Translation
There has been so many times unethical employers or co-workers tried to brow beat me into submission to get me to do something unethical.
The pressure was so great many times it felt as if my head was going to explode.
Many times I asked Jehovah if I could compromise just this once to which He said no. I asked Him to help but there none forth coming.
Eventually the crisis blew over.
In reflection I realized Jehovah did not help me because He knew I could take the pressure and it helped me mature and grow stronger.
As for those villains their plans looked to succeed for a while and it cast doubt in my mind.
And then, disaster came crashing down upon them suddenly and destroyed them.
Boy was I glad I stood on that solid ground then.
Stand your ground upon the solid rock of The Holy Bible. It may not seem worth it now but it sure will in the future. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Mephalti (Psalms 18: 2 The LORD My Deliverer ) for delivering me from my tormentor and eternally banishing them from my life. I praise You in the name of the greatest deliverer, Jesus Christ. Amen

Don’t waste your breath on fools,for they will despise the wisest advice. Proverbs 23:9 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
There has been so many times I have tried to help someone and they not only rejected the offer but they laughed and me and called me a fool. Then when disaster hits because they refused to listen , they blamed me.
When I see someone falling for a scam and try to warn them , they hate me because it goes against what they want to believe.
I used to almost beg them to listen because I did not want them to suffer.
Now, I patiently warn them using the simplest examples and if they refuse to listen I just walk away because I do not want to see the results of their foolishness.
Prayer: Oh please Jehovah ELOHIM YAKOL (God, the Most Able 2 Corinthians 9:8 ) bless me with the strength to walk away from fools that refuse to listen to Your words of warning. It is so difficult to do because I do not want to see anyone get hurt. I humbly ask You in the name of He who walked away from fools as well, Jesus Christ. Amen

O God, you cause abundant showers to fall on your chosen people.When they are tired, you sustain them, for you live among them. Psalms 68:9- 10 The Holy Bible The New Century Version
To me the showers represent Jehovah washing away our fear, worries, frustrations, exhaustion.
When we are exhausted and cannot go on the only place to go is on our knee’s crying out unto Jehovah our loving Heavenly Poppa.
He graciously, abundantly sends His love to us. This comforts us when we are afraid. It calms our fears when all seems against us. It assures us that everything will work out for our good when everything seems like a disaster around us. It renews our strength when we feel as if we are so exhausted we cannot move a muscle.
Through it all, He always lets us know He is walking right there beside us and assures us everything is in His capable hands.
Oh how wonderful Jehovah truly is to the children He loves so much. Joseph- Anthony a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Jireh ( God provides Philippians 4:19 ) for blessing me with life giving mental, spiritual and physical provisions, especially when I am weak or exhausted. I praise You in the name of He whose blood has provided the key to open Heavens door, Jesus Christ. Amen

Why haven’t you obeyed the Lord? Why did you rush for the plunder and do what was evil in the Lord’s sight?” Then Saul admitted to Samuel, “Yes, I have sinned. I have disobeyed your instructions and the Lord’s command, for I was afraid of the people and did what they demanded. 1 Samuel 15:19, 24 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
P p equals c d.
Being a p.p. (people pleaser ) equals c.d. ( certain disaster ), especially if you are trying to please them rather than do as the Holy Spirit has instructed you to do.
I know, because when I was a young man I tried being a people pleaser. My life was miserable, many folks manipulated me and it was impossible to please everybody.
Then there is when the Holy Spirit instructs you to do something and you listen to another instead. The end result is not only disaster but Jehovah, Jesus and the Holy Spirit will turn their back on you. This is the greatest disaster of all.
Of course when you repent they gladly come back to you.
Listen to the Holy trio: Jehovah, Jesus and the Holy Spirit because they love you and are all wise, they will never lead you wrong. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Elohim Ozer Li (Psalms 54:4 GOD My Helper ) for always being there to help me. May I always be obedient unto Thy wise guidance. I praise You in the name of the wisest of all, Jesus Christ. Amen
May I suggest we Christians start voting for politicians that have Christian morals like The Christian Heritage Party for the election here in Ontario Canada. Our rights and freedoms depend upon it.

I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
There has been so many times in my life when I was so discouraged there was no peace to be found anywhere. UNTIL, I got down on my knees and poured my heart out to our Heavenly Poppa. He sent the Holy Spirit to me and was blessed with an all encompassing peace which can only come from God.
There has been so many times in my life where it was one failure after another or , one disaster after another. It felt as if a huge boulder was being dragged around with me pulling it. Then, I got down on my knees and poured my heart out to our Beloved Heavenly Poppa. He sent The Holy Spirit to not only encourage me but to follow Him . Obedience brought success. Not instantly and most times not without a lot of pain but with great rejoicing at the success when completed.
Following the Holy Spirit’s guidance always brings to success. Joseph a son of Jehovah.
There has been so many times when it felt as if I was the only one on the planet, feeling extremely depressed. Then, I poured out my heart to our Heavenly, Beloved Poppa. He softly gently so spoke to me with reassuring words that affirmed He would never leave me nor forsake me because He loves me so much. An overwhelming all encompassing experience of peace and love filled every molecule in my body. No matter the situation, pour it out completely at Jehovahs loving feet. He loves you so much He cannot but help offer you the best remedy for whatever ails you. He is the best Heavenly loving Poppa. Joseph a son of Jehovah.

A righteous man hates lies, But a wicked man is loathsome, and he acts shamefully. Proverbs 13:5 The Holy Bible, The Amplified Version
Have you ever wondered why you hate it when you hear someone tell lies (even if they seem harmless) ?
It is because we imitate that which we love.
So, just as Jehovah hates lies and liars so too do we.
Loathsome is described as causing feelings of loathing; disgusting; revolting; repulsive.
Personally speaking, I find liars and braggarts to be particularly disgusting and repulsive. I have to run from them before I either explode or feel strongly sick to my stomach.
I believe that is exactly how Jehovah feels and a quick reference in your Bible will prove it. When they are a family member, it makes me want to cry seeing them walk the path of ultimate destruction and knowing they are too full of themselves to listen.
Again, I know that, that is exactly how Jehovah feels from reading and understanding the Bible.
Liars are very arrogant and believe they are gods in their own eyes. Many times they look down on others and feel no shame in lying to get what they desire at someones elses expense.
Eventually, Jehovah has enough of them and then allows them to reap what they sow. It is a terrible thing to witness and rips the heart apart even though we know they deserve what they are getting.
Stay away from them, they only bring heartache, pain and disaster. They are truly the devils children.
Hell is full of the arrogant. Heaven is full of the humble. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah for sending me The Holy Spirit El Emeth (Psalms 31:5 LORD GOD of Truth ) to teach me Your irrefutable truth. Thank you for opening my eyes to the destructive life of liars and to avoid interacting with them less they entice me to follow their footsteps to Hell. I thank you in the name of He who not only spoke nothing but the truth but lived it as well, Jesus Christ. Amen
May the God of truth protect you from the lying vipers that slither through out this land and guide you to not become one of them.

For The Lord is slow to get angry, but his power is great, and he never lets the guilty go unpunished. Nahum 1:3 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
We have the neighbours from Hell living beside us. Last year they ripped up a part of our garden then planted their own in it claiming it was no theirs. I think they are jealous because our garden is so beautiful and everyone comments on it They threw rubbish in our back yard. When I would bring friends to look at our garden in the back yard, they would yell and scream at us because (according to them ) we did not have the right to do that. If we did that our friends would see their marijuana and want to steal it (which they had no interest in). We could not trim our roses sharon bushes because then people would see their marijuana and want to steal it.
I prayed to the Lord for deliverance from these wicked creatures and for four months He told me to be brave and the battle was His.
This spring He directed me to have our land surveyed and install a camera so that if they came on our land this year they would be spending their summer behind bars for trespassing, destruction of private property, theft of private property and public nuisance .
They were told to clean up their mess our they would be sued (which they did).
We had to have our septic system cleaned and wanted to put in a new one (which we we informed was not necessary, the line just needed cleaned out). Then we were informed the neighbour put in a new one last year without a permit which would cost him around fifty thousand dollars if the county found out. They know we know about it.
I carry a camera with me so that if they yell and scream at me this year it will be filmed, given to a lawyer and they will be spending the summer in a psychiatric ward. So now they HAVE to behave themselves or else there will be severe consequences.
It is driving them nuts that they HAVE to behave themselves but it sure is a lot more peaceful on this side of the fence.
Each time the Lord reminded me of how He works bring peace to a destructive situation for us while punishing the war mongers.
What gets me is how they can go to church and she teaching children at Sunday School.
The wise man waits for the Lord for it is His fight that will lead to victory. All other paths lead to disaster. Joseph son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Elohe Yeshuathi (Psalms 88:1 LORD GOD of My Salvation ) for blessing me with Your awesome salvation from wicked beings that steal our land and peace. Thank you for providing the resources to to force the wicked to behave themselves. Thank you that this has brought so much joy to my life. I exalt You in the name of He who will bring peace unto all the world Jesus Christ Shalom (Judges 6:24 The LORD our Peace . Amen
May Christ bless you with love, joy and peace today and every day.Joseph a son of Jehovah
