Becoming as a Child  (Audio) David Eells – 9/25/24  If we put our trust in man we will fail. I have said for a while that I didn't believe God would give us the victory over our enemies without us first being weak for God's power is made perfect through weakness. He wants us to put our trust in Him as a little child so He can show His power to the World to save us from this beast. He is showing us our inability to save ourselves so we can receive this salvation by grace and not by men's power. Little David refused Saul's armor and weapon to fight with Goliath because he had not proved them. He killed the lion and bear by the power of God not men. Goliath had all the weapons of man. David said, ‘You come to me with a sword and a spear but I come to you in the name of the Lord.' I would, that our leaders in the physical world would proclaim His name before the enemy.   David chose 5 smooth stones but used only one to take down Goliath. The senses are these stones that were polished in the water of God's Word. David chose a stone which he sent on ahead to take down Goliath. In the New Testament we find that Jesus is the rock which the builder rejected. The stone that followed the Israelites was Jesus. When does His power come like this to a little child? The child is weak but trusts in his father. It is our faith that counts, the world and the worldly Church doesn't have any. Their faith is in President Trump but He needs our childlike faith for His power.   The thing about grownups is they're self-confident, self-sufficient, self-dependent. All of those traits the world thinks of as being positive, but in the Kingdom they're not considered that way by God. The Lord says the only way you can enter into the Kingdom is to be a child. Jesus said, “suffer the little children to come unto me; forbid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God (Mar.10:14). Forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God, is what it said in the original. Of such is the kingdom of God. (15) Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein. (16) And he took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands upon them.” We each need to become as a child so we can walk with the Lord.  We're entering into the Kingdom here on earth and in reality, the Kingdom is every place in your life. The kingdom of God is within you (Luk.17:21), Jesus said. The Kingdom is every place in your life where God is able to rule. God is not able to rule until you're in agreement with Him. To be a child is to be confident in your Father, not self-confident. It's to be dependent upon your Father, not self-dependent. This is valuable to God. As He said, “my righteous one shall live by (“from” in the Numeric) faith: And if he shrink back, my soul hath no pleasure in him” (Heb.10:38).   What pleases God is that we live from faith, not in our self-confidence, or our self-sufficiency, or our own ability, or the strength of the arm of the flesh, but that we put our trust in God and walk with Him like a little child walks with his father. We must give up being grownups. We must become as children in the Kingdom in order for God to be able to rule everywhere in our lives. (Mat.18:1) In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? (2) And he called to him a little child, and set him in the midst of them, (3) and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. And these were His disciples that He was telling this to.   These were not the lost Pharisees; these were the disciples of Jesus who were learning and following Him. He said you will not enter in unless you turn and become as little children. The process of the Christian life is turning and becoming as little children and becoming God-dependent, God-sufficient and God-confident. (Mat.18:4) Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. (5) And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. You see, Jesus was a little child. That's Who He was. He says, if you receive one of these little children, you receive Me. I.e. That's somebody who's in My likeness; you receive Me. He was a child. He really was. He wasn't a grownup in the ways of the world, in the ways of confidence in the world, the strength of the world.   Grownups are known for making their own way, making their own living, being self-sufficient, being great providers, but the Lord wants to wash all that out of us. He wants us to put all of our confidence and our trust in Him and become as little children. If you receive one such little child, you receive Jesus. He was confident in His Father. I'll tell you, the best way we can help ourselves is by walking by faith in God's Word. You've probably heard the old saying that, “God helps those who help themselves,” but that's not found in the Bible. That saying is credited to Benjamin Franklin in his Poor Richard's Almanac.   No, the best way to help yourself is walking in faith in God's Word. (Rom.14:22) The faith which thou hast, have thou to thyself before God… You can help yourself to everything that God has for you through faith in His Word. (Luk.10:21) In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight. So, the disciples had just come back from being sent out by the Lord to take authority over the works of the devil. They came back rejoicing that God had given them authority over the power of the devil and that they had done the works of Jesus, and they saw that the spirits were subject unto them. Jesus called them babes because it's babes who received this revelation of the authority of Jesus and this revelation of how to use the authority of Jesus.   Let's back up a little in this chapter. (Luk.10:3) Go your ways; behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves. (4) Carry no purse, no wallet, no shoes; and salute no man on the way. So, they were babes because Jesus sent them out totally dependent upon the Lord. (5) And into whatsoever house ye shall enter, first say, Peace [be] to this house. (6) And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him: but if not, it shall turn to you again. He said, “salute no man on the way” because you really don't know people but you find out later who people are. We're going to find out before the end of the tribulation who people really are and who His children are. God sent these disciples out as children, as totally dependent upon the Lord, not self-sufficient, not able to take care of themselves. He deliberately took away their ability to take care of themselves when He sent them by not letting them take any kind of insurance with them.   The only thing they took was His assurance because He said, “the laborer is worthy of his hire” (Luk.10:7), meaning, if you just go, God will always pay His workers. You don't have to worry about it. God is that way. He wants us to go without our own sufficiency or our own insurance so that we can see His provision on the way. I really truthfully believe that Jesus never changed this way of sending out people. Many times, if God says, “Go,” you may go. It doesn't matter if you have the wherewithal to do this. If God says, “Go,” you may go. He will never fail you. He will meet you on the way. He's done it many, many times with me when He said, “Go,” and I've noticed, “But, God, I don't have this” or “I don't have gas” or “I don't have money.” But God doesn't take “no” for an answer. If He says, “Go,” you can go because He will be there.   He'll put gas in your car. He's done it to me several times. Or He'll make it run without gas. He's done that, too. Or He'll put money in your pocket somehow or another. He'll do it. Or He'll make your money stretch. He can surely multiply it. He can do all things. He'll have you meet-up with people whom He has put there specifically to supply your needs, if you go by faith and be obedient to Him. If you go as a child, just trusting in your Father. In America, Christians seem grown-up and have insulated themselves against anything that could happen, as though they don't believe in a sovereign God. The Bible says, “A man can receive nothing, except it have been given him from heaven” (Joh.3:27). God, Who is Sovereign, will make sure that He blesses you, if you go by faith in Him.   Believe me, the time is coming when everybody is going to have to go by faith in God because He's going to take away all the things that people have insured and insulated themselves with from the things that might happen in the world. But God never goes to sleep. He's never fallen off the throne. He's there always. He is going to make sure that His Word comes true. And we can be just like little children. We can cast ourselves on His mercy. Children never even think about where the next meal is going to come from; they just know that it's Momma and Daddy's responsibility; they'll take care of that. And you know, that's the way God is with us. He wants that kind of relationship with us. God's not happy with anything less. (Heb.10:38) My righteous one shall live from faith: And if he shrink back, my soul hath no pleasure in him.   God doesn't have pleasure in self-sufficient people. He has pleasure in people who walk by faith, talk by faith, live by faith. And it is a pleasure to live by faith. I don't yet know all of what living by faith is; God's only shown me the little parts that He's shown me, but I would love to live by faith in every direction. Some directions I've never even thought about and other people will come and say, “Oh, did you try this?” For example, a sister in the Lord once told me that she and some other people just picked up some instruments and started playing them by faith and pretty soon they got better and better at it. They were surprised at how God blessed them. Well, that led us to pray over our children, Nathan and Jennifer, by faith, and God answered that prayer. I tell you, it was just the very next week after that when they started playing music, picking it up quite naturally, by ear.   There is nothing that God can't do and won't do for those who put their trust in Him. I believe this is the reason that He said He revealed these things unto babes. God reveals the authority of God and the power of His name to people who will become children, people who will cast care to the wind and put themselves in His Hands, just trusting in Him, believing in Him. (Eph.3:20) God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. God loves it when we are weak but we don't see it that way. But as I said, we do our best to insulate ourselves from any possible mishap, but that doesn't please God when we put our trust in the gods of this world to save us.   The apostle Paul learned that lesson. He was caught up to paradise and he said, “On behalf of such a one (the man who was caught up to paradise) will I glory: but on mine own behalf I will not glory, save in my weaknesses” (2Co.12:5). The King James Version translates that word “weaknesses” there as “infirmities” because they had the idea that the apostle Paul had some kind of sickness or infirmities, but a closer look at this reveals that's not the case at all. Those translators believed the apostle Paul had an eye disease or something like that and that God said, “my grace is sufficient for thee” (2Co.12:9), meaning, “You just keep that because you need to overcome that; or you need that to humble you.” But obviously that would be contrary to a lot of rest of the Word. The Bible says, “by whose stripes ye were healed” (1Pe.2:24). So we were healed all the time.   Let's read on. (2Co.12:6) For if I should desire to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I shall speak the truth: but I forebear, lest any man should account of me above that which he seeth me [to be,] or heareth from me. (7) And by reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, that I should not be exalted overmuch. So he said “thorn in the flesh” was a messenger of Satan, an angelos. The Greek word there is angelos, which is translated 181 times in the New Testament as “angel” and the other few times as “messenger,” but it means the same thing. Here was an angel of Satan that was sent to buffet Paul so that he wouldn't be proud.   By the way, to “buffet” is not just one blow. It means to beat over and over and over. It's many blows. But a thorn in the flesh, in this case, was an angel of Satan that was sent to buffet Paul. In the Old Testament, for every verse that talks about a thorn in the flesh, never, not once, is it ever a sickness. It was always referring to the enemies of God's people that came against them and in this case it's the same thing. An angel of Satan was sent to buffet Paul so he wouldn't “be exalted overmuch.” (2Co.12:8) Concerning this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. (9) And he hath said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for [my] power is made perfect in weakness. The King James here has that this word is “weakness,” but this word and the word up in verse five are the same Greek word, so one of them can't be “infirmity” and the other one “weakness.”   They have to both be the same thing and they are because they're using the same Greek word in talking about Jesus, the Bible says, “for he was crucified through weakness” (2Co.13:4). Now, nobody would have put “infirmity” there. Jesus wasn't crucified through infirmity, so they had to put the truth there and the King James did use “weakness” in that case. (4) For he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God toward you. See, when you are weak in Christ, or be a child in Christ, you're going to live through the power of God. It's when you are not able; being weak in ability to save yourself, weak in ability to deliver yourself, weak in ability to heal yourself. He says when you're in that condition, then God's power is going to be with you.   If we will refuse to be strong and we will put our trust in God, we will see His power there every time. It reminds me of a vision I had years ago, in which Mary and I were sitting in some lawn chairs in front of our house in Louisiana. While we were sitting there, we saw this power line hanging from pole to pole. The strange thing about it, as we were looking at this and studying this, was that the power line was almost touching the ground in the middle because it was sagging so bad. And while we were watching that, a tornado came over that power line and sucked us up out of our chairs. Then the vision changed and I felt like we were over in Florida and the Lord was showing us something about our ministry over there.   But what He showed me about that always stuck with me. As we were sitting there, ceasing from our works and resting in lawn chairs, watching the power of man come to an end (that's the power lines), then the power of God took over. Man's extremity is God's opportunity. God's not ready to move until we do cease from our works because we have faith. Every time you have faith, you can stop and cease from your work, cease from your struggling, cease from trying to save yourself because the Bible says you are saved. God's power is made perfect in our weakness.   Paul said, “most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses (not “infirmities” because it's the exact same Greek word), that the power of Christ may rest upon me” (2Co.12:9). We are to glory in our weaknesses so that the power of Christ may rest upon us. A child has all the power of Daddy because he is the provider, he is the deliverer, he is the savior. He takes care of it all and they don't think it should be any other way and we should be that way, too. We've been trained to think otherwise, to be grownups, but you know, God wants us to think like His children. Well, I think that we can see by now that the ‘verse,' “God helps those who help themselves,” is not Godly at all; it's antichrist. It will never allow you to enter into the power of God or the power of Christ to rest upon you.   Paul says he glories in his weaknesses so that the power of Christ may rest upon him. (2Co.12:10) … I take pleasure in weaknesses…. King James says “infirmities.” Nobody takes pleasure in infirmities. That's ridiculous. The word here is the same Greek word again. It's “weakness.” Yes, we take pleasure in weaknesses. It's great to be weak and not have the ability to deliver yourself because then you get to see the miracle of God. And he went on to say, in “injuries,” or actually the word there is “insults,” according to the ancient manuscripts and the Received Text and several others; it's “insults,” not necessarily “injuries.” You don't take pleasure in injuries, but “in insults, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong” (2Co.12:10).   Now, what was this buffeting that this angel of Satan sent his way? Some people say there are no such things as angels of Satan. The Bible says the demons are the angels of Satan, so just forget about what anyone else says because it's wrong. Michael and his angels fought with Satan and his angels (Revelation 12:7). Demons are all fallen angels. That's where they came from.   So what is this buffeting? What are these many different blows that the angel of Satan brought Paul's way in order to make him weak? Or put him into a position of weakness? Well, Paul gives a list of them. (2Co.11:21) I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet whereinsoever any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also. (22) Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I. (23) Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I more; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths oft.   He's talking about the places where he was weak to save himself. You know, when we get into places where we don't see any possibility of saving ourselves, that's wonderful because we get to see the power of God. If we walk by faith in those places, then we get to see the miracles of God. That's what God wants to teach us. Remember, God was the One Who sent this angel of Satan to humble Paul and we need humbling because we're grownups who need to become children. We need to not be self-sufficient; we need to be God-sufficient. We need to be trusting in our Lord's promises to save us in all these situations. So God brings us into these places and Satan's angel brings us into these places where we're weak, where we need the power of God.   Let's continue reading Paul's list. (2Co.11:24) Of the Jews five times received I forty [stripes] save one. (25) Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day have I been in the deep; (26) [in] journeyings often, [in] perils of rivers, [in] perils of robbers, [in] perils from [my] countrymen, [in] perils from the Gentiles, [in] perils in the city, [in] perils in the wilderness, [in] perils in the sea, [in] perils among false brethren; (27) [in] labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.   God put Paul in those places in order for him to be weak so that he could see the power of God. Being weak is not a time to be anxious or worried; this is a time when you should expect to see the power of God. It's God's purpose and His plan to bring us to weakness in order for us to see His power. Don't ever be cast down because of what you see because what you see are these places that make you weak to save yourself. He wants you to trust in Him and see His power. This is the place where God's power rests upon you.   Paul went on, “besides those things that are without, there is that which presseth upon me daily, anxiety for all the churches (2Co.11:28). (29) Who is weak (that's the word “weak”), and I am not weak? who is caused to stumble, and I burn not? (30) If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things that concern my weakness.” That's another place that the King James calls it “infirmity” but it's the same word! In the same text, if a word is translated one way in one part of the text and another way in another part of the text, that is dishonest and deceiving. It either has to be one or the other. Thank God for the places that He brings us to where we're weak! That's the only place we ever see miracles. Do you realize that?   That is the place we're most tempted to throw up our hands and be anxious or worried or troubled. All miracles are given right there, in a place of weakness, the place where you're unable. Now, if you have the mind of a child and you get in that place, you just expect Father to take over from then on. This is something that He normally does. God normally supplies your need, like in the teaching Jesus gave about the birds and the flowers. He said they don't labor and they don't toil to clothe and to feed themselves (Matthew 6:26,28). You mean, the Lord is saying you don't have to work to bring about this clothing and feeding? That's exactly what He said. Go back and read it. It's so clear.   He knew that you'd get yourself in a situation and He even ordained these situations to come, where you wouldn't be able to provide for yourself. And He said, “are not two sparrows sold for a penny? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father (Mat.10:29). (30) But the very hairs on your head are all numbered. (31) Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.” Look, not even a hair falls out of your head, can you imagine, that God doesn't know it! He knows us so intimately that not one hair can fall out of your head without Him knowing it. I mean, your hairs are always falling out and growing back. That is an intimate God Who can number the hairs of your head. He knows a lot, so how could we possibly get into a situation that He doesn't know about and hasn't planned for? He is our Jehovah-jireh, the Lord our Provider. (Php.4:19) And my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.   God can do anything. Think about some of the things that God has done in the Scriptures and He really did do them. He stopped the solar system for a day so Joshua could defeat his enemies. And, you know what? The great thing about it is He's “the same yesterday, and to-day, [yea] and forever” (Heb.13:8). He is the same. He will still do anything to meet your needs, if you will be weak and have faith.   Now, the time when you ought to have faith is when you're weak because God doesn't need to meet your needs when you don't have needs. You don't need a miracle until you need a miracle. Don't think that you can avoid a trial of your faith by receiving the miracle before you need it. No. God tries your faith. The miracle doesn't come till the miracle's needed. Trust in Him between here and there because He will be there. He will do what you need. Be confident in Him. Be children in Him. This is what we need to learn and it's not an easy lesson.   It demands the death of self, but religion has trained us up with the mind of the beast because religion has taught that God helps those who help themselves and it trains us to take care of these situations. Religion trains us to trust in the arm of the flesh. They even changed God into a god which He has never been so that they can trust in the arm of the flesh. “Now God does it this way,” they say, as if Jesus doesn't heal the same way He always healed, by laying hands on the sick or by speaking the word of faith. That's the same way He's always healed and He still does it that way.   You can run out and get the strength of the world, make your alliances with the world, get your insurance from the world. They'll change God and go to any extent to let the flesh live. But we have to become as a child, otherwise, Jesus says, you're not entering into the Kingdom of Heaven (Luke 18:17). The Kingdom of Heaven is where God rules, God reigns, God saves, God delivers. He hasn't changed. We have attempted to change Him. God put us here in this weak position. He planned for us always to be in a weak position, so that He could be our Savior.   Back to Paul in (2Co.4:7) But we have this treasure (the treasure is the light of the knowledge of the glory of God) in earthen vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves. God put this treasure, this knowledge of God, in such a weak vessel so that when anything happened, it would have to bring glory to Him and not to us. He could have put us in a very knowledgeable, very wise, very strong, and very healthy vessel and we wouldn't have needed His help. He wouldn't have needed to be God, would He? We would have been our own gods.   God didn't choose us because we are able. He chose us because we're not able. He wanted to give us freely His ability through grace and that's unmerited. You can't earn it and you can't pay for it. When you get yourself in an impossible situation, think about it. God put you there and He put you there so that you could see how great He is.   So God put this wonderful treasure in an earthen vessel, a very weak vessel. (2Co.4:8) We are pressed on every side, yet not straitened; perplexed, yet not unto despair; (9) pursued, yet not forsaken; smitten down, yet not destroyed; (10) always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus (which is the death of self), so that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body. God wants Jesus to live through us, but we have to be weak for Him to do that. The power of Christ will rest upon those who are weak. We're powerful only because we have faith in God. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us (Philippians 4:13) but He doesn't strengthen until you're weak, you see. We have to cease before He will start. We have to keep the Sabbath and cease from our works and enter into His works through faith.   God not only put us in a world that was bigger than us and with an enemy that was a lot bigger than us, He put us in a vessel that was weak to begin with, so that when the salvation came, we would know it was from Him and not from ourselves. We think we're so great and we've been trained to be self-sufficient. Mommas and daddies train-up their children to be self-sufficient. That's not what God wants. He wants a child. Never has He chosen the strong and this gives you hope that when you get in impossible situations, God planned for you to be there so that He could show you His power, so that He could show you His deliverance and His salvation. This is God's plan. It's been His plan from the beginning and He's done it over and over.   We read in (Deu.7:6) For thou art a holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth. God has chosen you above all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth. Did you know that? If He chose you, He chose you above someone else, but He didn't choose you because you're wiser or smarter or more able or mighty because “not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]” (1Co.1:26). God chose the weak. (Deu.7:7) The Lord did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all peoples. And it's still that way.   Why did God choose “the fewest of all peoples?” Certainly, if He was fighting battles with all the Canaanites, He would want the greatest number, wouldn't He? No, because when the battle was won, He didn't want anybody to say, “Look what we did!” And when the battle is won in our lives, He doesn't want anybody to be able to say, “Look what we did!” “Look how powerful we are!” “Look how wise we are!” Or, “Oh, we were smart enough to follow God.” You know, all these things that people could say.   We never need to count on our own strength. David did that and brought a curse on Israel (2 Samuel 24; 1 Chronicles 21). He counted the people of Israel and brought a curse on them because God sent a pestilence that killed 70,000 men, just so David couldn't count on his own strength (2 Samuel 24:15; 1 Chronicles 21:14). When you count on your strength, look out because you have trouble coming. God's going to humble you. God's in the humbling process with us. He wants to deliver us from trusting in the arm of the flesh.   You know, we can be as a child. We are unable in so many things. Sometimes we're forced into a position of being unable. But I tell you that what Jesus wants for us is not that we be forced into a position of weakness, but that we walk in that position of our own free will, refusing to be strong. This is the great thing. If we will learn to refuse to be strong, we will see the miracles of God now. Exercise faith for a miracle from God so everyone knows He is the Saviour.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 19th of June, 2024, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for the day.We go straight to the Gospel of Matthew 4:4:"But He answered and said, "It is written, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'"We want to speak today about the power in the spoken word of God. Now Jesus is God made flesh, and yet when He was tempted in the desert by the devil, he could have told the devil just to "push off", but He didn't, did He? No, He realised the tremendous authority in the spoken word of God, because Jesus is actually the Word of God.Now, if we look at the Book of Ephesians 6:17, the word of God says: "...and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God;..." It is the only weapon that the Lord has given us to stand against the enemy. We are not using it enough. I am going to pray for you at the end of this message, that God will help us use the weapon that He has given to us. Little David, the shepherd boy in 1 Samuel 17:45, said: "But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied." He was standing up against Goliath. They say David was just a teenager. He was a young boy. He stood up against a giant, the champion of the Philistines. They say that Goliath stood approximately ten and a half feet high. He had a spear like the shaft of a weaver's beam. He was a very ugly man. What Goliath are you facing today, my dear friend? I want to pray for you: Father, I pray for my dear friend right now who is facing a Goliath in their life. They don't know which way to turn, they don't know what to do. Lord, I pray that they will do exactly what Jesus did to the devil in the desert when He was sorely tempted after forty days and forty nights of fasting and prayer. He was weak, but He used the Word, "It is written". I pray that my friend will do the same, and Lord Jesus, that You will give him, You will give her, a tremendous victory. David killed Goliath and got the victory because he came against him with the word of God. Pray the word of God today. Thank You, Lord, amen.

Little David, with his pitiful slingshot, vs. the mighty Goliath. In a nutshell, that's how it felt to me for much of my career as a public defender. Now, with years of recovery in Al-Anon, I realize that so much of my perception of my role as a defender was tied up in my codependency, my need to rescue, and my need to prove myself worthy. Not all defenders feel as I did and not all defenders choose that line of work for the reasons I did. But for those who have, I hope my story can shed some light on the unconscious motivations some of us experience. I have come to learn that, while the job of defender is unquestionably very stressful and tough emotionally, it was my unconscious motivations that were the deep root of my depression and prolonged suffering.

Little David has big dreams to be a musical star.

Change of Fortunes for the Man-child and Bride (Audio) David Eells - 12/18/22 The DS Plan to Rob the People Winnie Osegueda - 12/4/2002 (David's notes in red)   I dreamt that my husband, Chuc, and I were driving through the city streets. (Representing world Babylon.) There were a few large, black SUV's that were in front of us which suddenly turned sideways in order to block the road so that we, and others, would not be able to drive through. I knew, in the dream, what they were about to do. (As we will see, the black SUVs represent DS government forces who are trying to hyjack the people and the banking system. Cyrus, who we know Trump is a type of, was shown the stolen hidden riches of Babylon mentioned in Isaiah 45. Trump discovered these riches and repatriated them. Which, in effect, he will use to re-build the Kingdom of God like Cyrus did.) Masked men wearing black from head to toe came out of the SUVs with large guns in order to rob people; particularly, the large armored truck to our left which was transporting money for the banks. (Robbing the truck translates into robbing the people who have money in the banks. Also, blocking the road from people passing through could represent preventing people from accessing their money in the banks.)  They made all the cars stop whether they were going to rob that specific car or not. However, Chuc and I decided to not be afraid and kept driving. Chuc drove through a gap on the right and we made it through the roadblock. The masked men began to shoot at the back of our car, and although our car was hit, the bullets did not penetrate, and we were unharmed. I remember calling on the name of Jesus while we were driving away. (Staying on the right represents access to God's protection.) Then I woke up. Verses I received by faith at random: Deuteronomy 10:17 For Jehovah your God, he is God of gods, and Lord of Lords, the great God, the mighty, and the terrible, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward. Proverbs 16:9 A man's heart deviseth his way; But Jehovah directeth his steps. (The DS thinks “might is right” but when it comes to God's people who trust in Him, His might comes into play.) A verse Chuc received by faith at random: John 3:19 And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.    The DS Serpent Coming to Constrict Babylon Marie Kelton - 12/9/22 (David's notes in red)  During our meeting, as we were praying, I closed my eyes and saw a vision of a huge brown and black boa constrictor. It was slithering down a rocky cliff going towards a city that was below the cliff. (We recently had a factious man rail at us that we weren't going to “constrict” him. He became a Judas. Judas also went over a cliff when he hung himself and fell into Akeldama “the field of blood.” Because he was guilty of innocent blood. This also seems to fit the factious in the Church and state.) The city buildings looked light brown, like they were made out of clay or sand. (Light brown was the color of Hitler's Nazi uniforms. Also, Jesus said in, Mat. 7:26-27 And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand: 27 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall thereof.) The city looked like it was in a desert. There was little water and not many trees. (The old serpent, the dragon, and his factious minions, are being cast down through our prayers. He will not be able to save his Nazi (Brown) city of Babylon. They are falling together..)   The Old Serpent Seeks to Devour the Bride and Man-child  Tiannah Fire - 12/13/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamt Samuel and I were visiting a town called Dysart. (Meaning isolated, desert, waste)  We walked around to the back of a shop to find a trash bin. (God's true disciples seek to rid themselves of all worldly Babylonish garbage.) We found an enclosed area… that led us through this big corridor to a covered area. The roof was plastic and partially transparent, and there were heaps of leaves on top of it. (Preventing the light of the sun/Son from getting through.) …   Towards the left … was a dirty, red car parked, that looked like it hadn't been used in an extremely long time. … (Representing [the apostates that have fallen away from the crucified life.] Their lives are stagnant in this town and almost completely buried under the carnality and death of the world;) (The dead leaves represent wintertime which the Bible says is tribulation. Dead leaves can no longer take in the light of the sun/Son representing the Word.)  Samuel was holding our baby, David, and he went to walk over to another section that had green, wheeled, trash bins. …Samuel went over there to put the trash in a bin, as I watched from over near the car. (Representing sanctification and getting rid of the Babylonish waste from our lives.)  Then, I saw two brown snakes slither out, but Samuel didn't see them. They slipped straight past him and came towards me. I then saw a yellow snake and a black snake come out from under the dirty, red car towards my left, and they went in front of me. (The snakes represent the enemies that surround us.) (The left is where Jesus placed all the apostate, rebellious goats. Both Jesus and John the Baptist referred to the factious leadership “vipers.”) I shouted to Samuel about the snakes, and he turned and looked at them. Then our son David jumped from his arms onto the ground, and the snakes slid around him but they couldn't bite him. (Little David represents the Man-child whom the enemy will try to destroy but will not be able to. The Pharisees were afraid to publicly against Jesus because His wisdom was beyond them.) Then many more snakes appeared and came over towards us.   David crawled to me, and I picked him up and Samuel came over to us. Although the snakes were slithering all over the ground and around him, he never once stepped on one of them. (The demons in these serpents cause them to come against satan's enemies.)   The snakes tried to intimidate us by looking like they were going to bite us; opening their mouths wide and moving their tongues and showing off their fangs, but they never bit us. (This represents the enemy spreading their fear, lies and intimidation. We must put on our spiritual armor and guard ourselves from the wickedness and venomous poison of the enemy.)  Psa 140:3 They have sharpened their tongue like a serpent; Adders' venom is under their lips. Selah.   Mar 16:18 and in their hands they shall take up serpents, and if they drink aught deadly, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.   I was getting attacked with fear, but I was trying to reject it and stay calm. …Samuel said we needed to leave, and told me to just walk slowly and calmly out, the same way that we came in. (They came in seeking sanctification which is the only escape from the torments and tactics of the enemy.)   The snakes followed us and kept moving around our feet. Even though they looked so close to us, they couldn't touch or bite us, but they were trying to intimidate us.   When we were going through the …corridor to get out, we stopped for a moment, and Samuel turned around and stepped on the head of one of the brown snakes and it died straight away. (We must “bruise its head” with our heel representing our walk of faith and spiritual warfare or we won't win the battle.)  Luk 10:19 Lo, I have given you the authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.   He then stamped his foot on another, and it wriggled around for a bit, but then died. (Gen. 3:15 and I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed: he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.) Then a giant snake slithered over to us; it was 10 times bigger than all the other ones. Its head was a bright yellow and green and its body a bright purple. (This represents satan himself who has appeared to men as a beautiful angel of light. He is the old serpent who will try to devour the woman and her Man-child in Rev. 12.) I was holding little David when this snake came to us and we were supernaturally lifted up off the ground, but still inside this covered area. (The Bride and Man-child are kept safe and are hidden.) (The wicked dwell on the earth and are at the mercy of the Beast. Rev. 13:7-8 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation. 8 And all that dwell on the earth shall worship him, everyone whose name hath not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that hath been slain. But the Bride abides in heavenly places in safety. Eph. 2:6 and raised us up with him and made us to sit with him in the heavenly places, in Christ Jesus.) Rev 12:5-6 And she was delivered of a son, a male, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath there a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred threescore days.   The snake kept moving its head around, and on the top of its head it had a big hole. This snake didn't show off its fangs like the other smaller ones. But instead, it kept aiming the hole on the top of its head at Samuel and each time it would spew out venom at him. (Satan uses those who have the mind of the flesh because it is at enmity with God.)  Samuel casually moved out of the way each time and the venom couldn't get onto him. … (When the enemy cannot directly attack or intimidate, he will desperately try anything to spread his lies.)  We ended up just opening the gate we came in through and walking out. The snakes couldn't follow us out of the gate. We were all safe praise God! (Satan cannot deceive those that come out from among them.)   Man-child at Death's Door Missy Pollock 12/3/22 (David's notes in red) I was in David's house observing; I knew it was Davids' house, but it didn't look like it was his house. (It is the house of David as a type of the larger Man-child reformers.) David was in a bed covered up and frail looking like he was at deaths door; it hardly looked like him. (Representing the death of the Man-child David's old man in preparation for the catching up to the throne of resurrection life. This will be a great change of fortunes for the Man-child and Bride initially and then for the Church.) There were a lot of brothers and sisters around him and he was talking to them about something, but I didn't hear what he said. After a bit, everyone left. (John 6:66-71 (Notice 666 represents a departure of the factious among the disciples.) Upon this many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him. 67 Jesus said therefore unto the twelve, Would ye also go away? 68 Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. 69 And we have believed and know that thou art the Holy One of God. 70 Jesus answered them, Did not I choose you the twelve, and one of you is a devil? 71 Now he spake of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.) I went over to Michael who was laying on his back on the kitchen counter with his head at the corner. (Jesus was the Head of the corner) and his legs stretched out across the countertop, and he had on blue jeans. (Michael means, "who is like God". A corner is also a turning point like the death of self brings resurrection. Also resting on his back puts his eyes toward heaven, meaning his expectation and faith is in God. And the kitchen is the place to prepare spiritual food, which the Man-child body will bring to the Church.)  There were items scattered around him, but it wasn't clear what they were. They didn't look like the shape of pots and pans. (Pots and pans are a natural way to prepare food. Spiritual food is prepared by God's methods which don't look anything like the ways of man.) I said to him, "You're in one corner and David is in the other.” (The corners are turning places where walks and provisions will be changed for the better.) (I believe I was just an observer in this dream because I didn't interact with anyone, and Michael didn't respond when I spoke to him.) Then David had gotten out of bed, and I saw that he was wearing a white t-shirt and white and red print pajama bottoms. (Representing being dressed in righteous works and red on the pajama bottoms represents a blood washed and rested walk.) He was nothing but skin and bones. (When the flesh life is dead and gone then the resurrection comes.)  David went to the other end of the countertop from Michael and there was a wooden safe under the countertop. I knew he wanted to check and see if he could open it. It didn't look like a normal safe because it had a latch on it that he pulled straight out and it opened. He didn't open the door wide but just enough to know that he could get into it when he needed to. (Access to funds for the ministry will be available to the resurrected Man-child David's.)  Then someone was at the door, and he went and opened it and it was Merlene. She had a smile on her face as she walked in. David asked her something like, "Did you bring $180?" She said, "Yes." (180 is a play on words; like making a 180 degree turn about. (Two 90 degree corners that Michael and David were in equals the 180 degree turn about. Everything will change for the Man-child reformers and those who follow them. The 180 degree turn about at the death of the Man-child and the corners represents a total turn about of situations, authority, power, fortunes, etc. The verses at random below, also imply this total turn around regarding enemies and fortunes.) I asked the Lord for verses by faith at random for the dream and received. Isa 14:28, (in context 28-32) 28 In the year that king Ahaz (Father of Hezekiah) died was this burden. 29 Rejoice not, O Philistia, all of thee, because the rod that smote thee is broken; for out of the  serpent's root shall come forth an adder, and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent. (Enemies of God's people, and especially Zion, will be judged)   30 And the first-born of the poor shall feed, and the needy shall lie down in safety; and I will kill thy root with famine, and thy remnant shall be slain. 31 Howl, O gate; cry, O city; thou art melted away, O Philistia, all of thee; for there cometh a smoke out of the north, and there is no straggler in his ranks. 32 What then shall one answer the messengers of the nation? That Jehovah hath founded Zion, and in her shall the afflicted of his people take refuge. (Zion, the Bride city, shall have a rebirth and great change of fortunes. They will once again be a leader of God's people for the David Man-child will be crowned.) Zec 8:10, (in context 9-13) 9 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts: Let your hands be strong, ye that hear in these days these words from the mouth of the prophets that were in the day that the foundation of the house of Jehovah of hosts was laid (Where we are again now), even the temple, that it might be built. 10 For before those days there was no hire for man, nor any hire for beast; neither was there any peace to him that went out or came in, because of the adversary: for I set all men every one against his neighbor. (Again, where we are now) (The fortunes will change for the better.) 11 But now I will not be unto the remnant of this people as in the former days, saith Jehovah of hosts. 12 For there shall be the seed of peace; the vine shall give its fruit, and the ground shall give its increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things. 13 And it shall come to pass that, as ye were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing. Fear not, but let your hands be strong. (Michael and I asked if the coming of the Man-child would be soon and got heads for yes 3 times. I asked on Dec. 8th., “Is the Man-child coming now?” And received, Psa. 11:7b the upright shall behold his face.) I also had asked the angel Baruch, “Is the Man-child coming and he answered, “Surely.”) Missy said, “The bank situation may be a sign of Man child coming and related to the safe dream above. …I put my phone on shuffle and the first song was EVEN SO COME! (This is a confirmation of the dream) Last night I was looking at my dream about the embers of judgement falling out of the sky while I was holding my grandson, Maverick, all swaddled up, who wasn't born yet at the time. I know that from the time of that dream I felt things would happen soon; especially hoping the Man child would be anointed. As we know, when that happens, there are blessings and judgement.”   When the Davids Die, the Man-child Ministry is Born Vanessa Weeks - 12/1/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that I and some UBM women were standing outside on a white patio (Representing being founded on holiness.) We were standing in a circle, talking with each other on a sunny day. (Representing taking in the sun/Son.) Winnie was there in this circle and was pregnant. (“Winnie” as opposed to “losie” represents those in the Bride body who are winners or overcomers in order to give birth to the Man-child, Jesus.) She was dressed in a white, sleeveless sundress. (Representing righteous acts and works exposed to the sun/Son. Rev 3:5 He that overcometh shall thus be arrayed in white garments; and I will in no wise blot his name out of the book of life, and I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.  Also Rev 19:7 Let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and we will give him the glory: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And it was given her that she array herself in fine linen bright, pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.)  Winnie said something regarding how amazing it was that she was pregnant at her age, but I was thinking she was not too old. Then Merlene said that she was pregnant too. (The Bride body, who are the first fruits to bring forth the Man-child, is made up of many people young and old.) I remember thinking that was amazing because I have not known anyone pregnant at Merlene's age. (Representing Sarah who bore the impossible fruit of the promised seed, Isaac, at the age of 90 through the faith of Abraham.) Then I saw that a baby boy was born, and it seemed that he came from both Merlene and Winnie. (Representing the birth of the Man-child out of the Bride Body.) I no longer saw Winnie or Merlene, but only the baby. (We are no longer seen when our fruit of Christ is manifested.) There was a very small nurse, standing to my left. (Where Jesus placed the rebellious goats.) Immediately after the birth, she looked at the baby and said it was still born. (Representing the bad report; doubt and unbelief. Even though the apostates look on the fruit, it is not to their liking.) Then I saw the baby move and said, "No, he's alive." 2Co. 2:14-16 But thanks to God, who always leadeth us in triumph in the Christ, and maketh manifest through us the savor of his knowledge in every place. 15 For we are a sweet savor of Christ to God, in those being saved, and in those perishing; 16 to the one a savor from death unto death; to the other a savor from life unto life. And who is sufficient for these?  The baby was very big, like the size of a three-year-old child. He was also maturing quickly and starting to talk, even though he was just born. (When the Man-child is born, He will mature very quickly, for He is born in the image of His Father. 2Co. 3:18) After I woke up from this dream, I opened my Bible and saw this verse, which I think is the meaning of this dream. Rom. 6:22 But now being made free from sin and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto sanctification, and the end eternal life. Note: Since the David's are close to death, Judas must come along to help Him to His cross. This Judas process has been going on for some time and is near its end.   Dream About Judas Bill Steenland - 12/5/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I was telling a group of people “One of you is a devil!” (This is what Jesus said referring to Judas in John 6:70-71 Jesus answered them, Did not I choose you the twelve, and one of you is a devil? 71 Now he spake of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.)  In the dream I said it multiple times and emphasized the word “is”.  I didn't know who the group of people were in the dream. (The factious Judas' become strangers and enemies to us when they are taken over by those spirits, as Judas was. Php. 3:18-19 For many walk, of whom I told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19 whose end is perdition, whose god is the belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)   One of You Shall Betray Me Matthew Stewart - 12-11-22 (David's notes in red) In the dream, I was in a room and David was sitting in the doorway. (Jesus in the Man-child David reformers is the Door of the sheep.) Behind him were standing two or three people (Representing those who are mature in Christ [and standing with David in ministry.]), one of whom was Michael Hare, but I can't recall who the others were. In the room were lots of kids of various ages. (Indicating all of UBM local and larger.) (Representing different maturity levels in Christ). I was among the children, but I was a little older. I was sitting along the wall, along with some of the older kids, across from David. (The older ”kids” stay near the wall of sanctification, which represents a separation from the world.) Then David said to us all, “Do you know that part in the Bible where Jesus says, ‘One of you shall betray me?' ” All the kids answered, “Yeah”. Then David said, “One of you shall betray me.” (Mat. 26:20-25 Now when even was come, he was sitting at meat with the twelve disciples; 21 and as they were eating, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began to say unto him every one, Is it I, Lord?  23 And he answered and said, He that dipped his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. 24 The Son of man goeth, even as it is written of him: but woe unto that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had not been born. 25 And Judas, who betrayed him, answered and said, Is it I, Rabbi? He saith unto him, Thou hast said.) I discerned that this event has not happened yet but is for a future time. Of course, I immediately thought, "is it me?” Then I saw a vision, where it was just David. (When Judas betrayed Jesus, Jesus was then all alone. This is the way it has been for me with my past Judas'. To involve others with these vicious people causes them to turn on the innocent.) He said, “I didn't see that one coming. I guess my discernment for that is gone.” (The last Judas that left made threats, but we haven't seen them come to pass. Backstabbers never warn you, they shoot from darkness. But the Lord is coming like a Lion as we shall see to judge these wicked Edomites.) Then I woke up.   The Backstabber's Feigned Repentance Winnie Osegueda - 11/21/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamt that some of local UBM was helping a factious man move into an apartment on the 1st floor. (The ground floor represents dwelling on the earth and not desiring to go higher with Christ. The last Judas was being helped into an apartment by us, but it didn't work out for him because he had not repented.) In this dream he had a bald head. (Representing no submission to the Lord since hair is a sign of submission in 1Co. 11.) It seemed that this factious man had repented, and David was being kind in helping him out, giving him another chance, and allowing him back into the fellowship. (True repentance and confession of sin is still the condition for governmental forgiveness in the Church. This is a warning to hold fast to the conditions that none return to defile the body.)  I remember that others were kindly helping to move the man's stuff in. However, I kept feeling that something was not right and that this man's repentance was not sincere. I had a knowing that he would destroy the place when he left. (He left before he got moved in because of backstabbing.  The factious demons in them always leave death and destruction in the lives of others in their wake, as it was with the disciples when Jesus was crucified through Judas.)  I noticed that he had a couple of black duffle bags full of knives. The knives had white handles, but on them were etched something like "love and light" which might sound good to the undiscerning, but it's something that new agers say, and it's a false love and a false light. (They always say they love you while they stab you in the back, and they don't seem to realize how hypocritical this is. This was exactly fulfilled with the last Judas and he left. Rom. 16:17-18 Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them that are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine which ye learned: and turn away from them. 18 For they that are such serve not our Lord Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the innocent.) I remember saying "This person is not truly repentant," and then I woke up.    Hidden Sins of the Judas' Exposed Tiannah Fire - 12/12/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamt that I was a part of a group of brethren in the United States. (Representing UBM which is based in the U.S.) We all went to another country to set up a school, to tell everyone the real good news and to have a safe place for brethren to live. (This represents our missions outreach and the missionaries that supply our books and materials to the people in their respective countries.) The group bought a giant set of buildings which looked like a boarding school, it was giant and spread out and the buildings were yellow. (Representing the UBM Headquarters that the Lord has promised us for the great revival of the end times. It is yellow because we will spread the light of the Son/sun everywhere.) The buildings were located close to a beach on a small island, but you could still access the mainland by boat. (We were told by the Lord through dreams that this is how it's going to be. The beach represents Abraham's seed whom God promised would be as the sands of the sea.) The main people we were trying to minister to were like Islanders, people that didn't live in normal civilization but lived off the land. (This also describes what the Lord has told us. That we will be separated from the rest of civilization where many judgments will fall. We are living on a big boat in the land that will be separated by earthquakes. Those who are here with us in the boat and are the elect of God will come into the kingdom.). We would go to little islands all around the place and there would be many that came to Jesus. (Jesus went to every city and preached.) There was one woman that came to our Lord, and she was so on fire for our God that she was constantly out preaching and looking for lost brethren, day and night, not worrying about basic needs. (A Body of Saul's will turn into Paul's and will seek diligently to prove themselves worthy of the kingdom.) Samuel and I went for a walk around some of the beaches on this island that the school was located on. It was nighttime and the moon was very bright (The darkness can't stop the light and everything in darkness gets brought into the light, as we will see.). …We walked to this area on the beach which was more secret because there were large sand dunes.  As we walked close to the water, from a distance, we saw a man lying down on his back in the water, …but we couldn't quite recognize him. (Representing having his back to the word and in a backslidden state.) We then saw another man walk towards him as if he had been waiting for him. It was made obvious they were in a same sex relationship. We saw the face of the man walking and he was a man that was a part of the Christian group from the USA, (UBM) and he had blonde hair. (Many of the factious traitors have fallen into both bi-sexuality and homosexuality and other perversions because they judged as sinners and they were judged by God.) It was just found out now that he had this hidden sin. (This is why God turns them over to a reprobate mind. We can't hide our sins from God, he will expose them so we can be cleansed or purged out of His Body. Psa. 90:8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, Our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.) We would never have guessed that he was doing this evil behind our back. He seemed to love our Lord. This was very unexpected. These two men didn't see us until we started to walk around them. The man we recognized yelled out to us in anger and frustration for being caught. (This is a good example of exactly how they act. They are mad at you because you caught them.) (Their attacks are based in pride and self-justification.) We didn't want to argue with him, so we just ran back to the school building. (Tit. 3:9-11 but shun foolish questionings, and genealogies, and strifes, and fightings about law; for they are unprofitable and vain. 10 A factious man after a first and second admonition refuse; 11 knowing that such a one is perverted, and sinneth, being self-condemned.) The man started chasing after us yelling that if we tell anyone he will kill us and he kept threatening and trying to put fear on us. (They love to threaten and intimidate, and they are stalkers too. They send curses against all who are witnesses against them.) We ran straight to the buildings where some of the elder brethren were and we told them what we saw and how the man was threatening us. (Mat.18:15-17 And if thy brother sin against thee, go, show him his fault between thee and him alone: if he hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. 16 But if he hear thee not, take with thee one or two more, that at the mouth of two witnesses or three every word may be established. 17 And if he refuses to hear them, tell it unto the church: and if he refuse to hear the church also, let him be unto thee as the Gentile and the publican.) …They said that they would confront the man about his hidden sin. So, we stayed in a different room on the top of a two story building for our safety. (We must take the “high road” and obey the Word represented by relocating to a higher level in the building. This is where safety from temptation and our enemies is provided.) The next day an elder's wife came to us and told us that they searched everywhere for the man, and no one could find him. She also told us to stay hidden in groups of people for our safety. (Pro. 11:14 Where no wise guidance is, the people falleth; But in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.) There was a group meeting with everyone in the hall, so we joined them.  When we got down the stairs there was a man waiting there with a cart that had our items in it and it had my phone that I had dropped when were we escaping the factious Judas. He told us he was delivering our stuff to us. I picked up my phone and saw that I had a text from the man we had caught in sin, and the text was a threat to kill me for telling people about what we saw him doing. (They send factious witchcraft spirits to spiritually kill those who are witnesses or dreamers who reveal their secret sins.) …I then looked at the man holding the cart and, when seeing his face, I realized that he was the man we saw lying down in the water. This was my first time seeing him face to face. I ran over to the elder's wife and said this is the man that we saw. She refused to believe it because she loved this man very much and he helped out so much and had been with them for a long time. (Most of these people have rejection and fear of rejection and, like Judas, they hide their sins, but God reveals them every time.) We told her it was true, but she didn't want to hear it or believe it. (Believers don't want to accept the evil that is in these people, but sooner or later it will be revealed to them.) I felt that there is nothing else I can do except speak the truth. Then I woke up.    A Duty to Expose Judas Gabby Dibble - Sept. 2022 (David's notes in red)   I dreamed that I had to go undercover to hide my identity. I was posing as a man to sneak into a government building. I didn't change up my look that much; it must've been the Lord hiding me because I still looked female. (We are to put on Christ and abide in Him in the secret place. Gal. 3:28 There can be neither Jew nor Greek, there can be neither bond nor free, there can be no male and female; for ye all are one man in Christ Jesus.) I was inside the building heading for a specific room. I had a duty to expose something. (Luke 17:3 … if thy brother sin, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.) I also had a child with me, and I was carrying them as I was walking calmly. (This represents our fruit of Christ in us.) I could hear a woman over the speaker announce that I wasn't who I said I was, but a poser undercover. (A slanderous, false accusation and blasphemy against the Holy Spirit. These people always accuse you of what they themselves are guilty of.) I knew now I didn't have much time and … I continued to press on to the room I intended to go to [for the exposure].  Then the scene changed, and I was in the spirit. I saw this man who would travel everyday on a school bus to a home nearby for some type of secret work. He and another man would have some kind of work exchange. For example, one provided the physical laboring, and the other paid for it. I'm not sure if this was the exact scenario or if it was a trading & bartering situation. (The laborer is the Son of man, and His life is being exchanged for the life of the Son of God. This man represents Jesus in the Man-child body who traded or exchanged His life for ours. The secret work represents the Mystery of Christ in us our hope of glory. The man rides a school bus because He teaches the children the good news of the reconciliation which means exchange.) This man that traveled on the bus got caught going to the other man's house. Many other men came into the school bus and began beating this man. (The factious Pharisees captured Jesus, beat him, and crucified Him. Luke 20:9-16 …A man planted a vineyard, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into another country for a long time. 10 And at the season he sent unto the husbandmen a servant, that they should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him and sent him away empty. 11 And he sent yet another servant: and him also they beat, and handled him shamefully, and sent him away empty. 12 And he sent yet a third: and him also they wounded and cast him forth. 13 And the lord of the vineyard said, what shall I do? I will send my beloved son; it may be they will reverence him. 14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned one with another, saying, this is the heir; let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours. 15 And they cast him forth out of the vineyard and killed him. What therefore will the lord of the vineyard do unto them? 16 He will come and destroy these husbandmen and will give the vineyard unto others.) A friend of his was a part of this group and betrayed him by joining in the beating. Another man that hit him didn't want to as they were also friends. I believe this friend was actually genuine as he didn't hit the man to kill him. (This represents Judas and Peter. Both betrayed the Lord but Peter was able to be redeemed while Judas was reprobated. Some of the faction will return to us while the majority won't receive grace to be reconciled.) The man ended up surviving the attacks. (This represents spiritual death and resurrection.) Then I woke up.   A Shift Taking Place  Gabby Dibble - Sept. 2022 (David's notes in red) I had a dream that things were taking a shift. I was standing outside with a group of people. They had an action plan and I felt I had no idea what any of them were talking about. I had no memory of what happened before this moment in the dream. I also didn't know who they were. (These are the factious Judas' who have many plans of action but the Lord will continue to foil, derail, and expose their plans. By the grace of God were able to record their leader and his corruption and plans.) All of them were talking in a circle and a man harshly rebuked me but it didn't seem to be accurate. I don't remember what he rebuked me for, but it caused me to cry. (This represents persecution and slander that are based on false charges.)  They were about to leave this location to pursue their action plan. I was still confused on what they were doing and where there were going. (We have the renewed mind of Christ and not unregenerate evil minds, so it's hard for us to relate to evil people with evil intentions.)  All I knew was that their plan seemed urgent to them. (They were in a hurry to earn their thirty pieces of silver.) They were going to take three trucks. I asked the first two drivers of the trucks if I could ride with them and there wasn't space. The last vehicle was driven by the man who rebuked me harshly. I had such an off feeling about it alI. I ended up not going with them. (Pro. 1:10-19 My son, if sinners entice thee, Consent thou not. 11 If they say, come with us, Let us lay wait for blood; Let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause; 12 Let us swallow them up alive as Sheol, And whole, as those that go down into the pit; 13 We shall find all precious substance; We shall fill our houses with spoil;  14 Thou shalt cast thy lot among us; We will all have one purse: 15 My son, walk not thou in the way with them; Refrain thy foot from their path: 16 For their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed blood. 17 For in vain is the net spread in the sight of any bird: 18 And these lay wait for their own blood; They lurk privily for their own lives. 19 So are the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; It taketh away the life of the owners thereof.)   The Lion is Released Taryn Ezell - 12/12/22 (David's notes in red) I had a vision while listening to the song “Let it Rain” in our praise and worship meeting. (A symbol of God pouring out His Holy Spirit with power and signs as we are seeing.) In the vision, the throne of God was there and there was light everywhere. There was a huge Lion next to the Lord on his right side as I was looking straight at them. (Representing Jesus, the Lion of Judah. He is not coming as a lamb but a Lion.) The floor was a blackish gray color with a shiny resin or epoxy on it, where I could see a reflection of all the light surrounding the Lord. (Rev. 4:6 and before the throne, as it were a sea of glass like unto crystal…) The Lord gave the Lion a nod. (The angels told us that “the Son is waiting for the Father's command”; referring to Jesus' return in the Man-child. Meaning it's time for the Lion to go forth and conquer His enemies.) Then I saw satan standing behind me and a huge pit behind him. The Lion was calm but then became enraged when it saw satan who appeared as a dark figure in this vision. (Zec. 3:1 And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of Jehovah, and Satan standing at his right hand to be his adversary [or accuser]. 2 And Jehovah said unto Satan, Jehovah rebuke thee, O Satan; yea, Jehovah that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?) The Lord spoke into my mind and said, “The Lion is angry that the dark figure [satan] is [the one] who made Him how He is.” (An angry Lion) The Lion was thrashing around on the chain, like an angry dog on a leash, ready to kill. (Isa. 31:4 For thus saith Jehovah unto me, As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey, … so will Jehovah of hosts come down to fight upon mount Zion, and upon the hill thereof.) As the Lion was showing his teeth and growling, the Lord unhooked the leash from His collar and loosed the Lion. (The Father is sending the Son as a Lion. The stone that the builders rejected had become the head of the corner.) The Lion gained traction quickly and ran past me, jumped up, and tackled satan with his claws around his neck and with all his might and they both end up in the pit. (The Lord will do a quick work upon His enemies; taking them to the pit. Its important to note that the last Judas who tried to usurp the Kingdom from the aged David was killed by Solomon who was given the Kingdom before David died.) I asked the Lord to confirm if this was from Him or not to make sure it was not just my imagination. I asked Him for a reference to the word “lion” in the next song at the praise meeting.  We sang Psalm 34 by the Brooklyn Tabernacle. In the lyrics of the song there was no mention of a lion, so I thought, “Maybe it was just my imagination.”  But, when I got home, the Lord led me to look up Psalm 34 and, low and behold, there was the mention of a Lion. It hadn't been in the song lyrics, but I had only asked the Lord for the word Lion in the next song! Here is the context of the scripture: Psalms 34:8-10 Taste and see how good the LORD is! The one who takes refuge in him is truly happy! You who are the LORD's holy ones, honor him, because those who honor him don't lack a thing. Even strong young lions go without and get hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing. I also used an image generator to generate an image from words, and it gave me a few images based on this vision. I'll add those as well. I just thought it was a really awesome to be shown that vision!          Note: The dragon in Revelation 12 is the body of satan. The dragon was also the symbol of Babylon. The DS are satanists and Judas' to their brethren. The Lion is coming to do what the Alliance, alone, is not capable of, which is destroy satan's kingdom in Babylon. So, from here we will see this scenario worked out.     The Lord Will Come as a Mighty Man David Eells - 12-10-22 The Alliance will not be able to finish off the DS.  Their successes so far have been because the Bride like Esther was given authority over Haman and his army. But the Lord is coming as a "mighty man" in the Man-child to bring them down. Like Mordecai, meaning little man or man-child, was given the ring of authority by the King of Kings to lead the Bride to victory. Psa 78:65 Then the Lord awaked as one out of sleep, Like a mighty man that shouteth by reason of wine. 66 And he smote his adversaries backward: He put them to a perpetual reproach. (We have received this many times by faith at random.  The Lord is coming in His David mighty man to finish off Babylon DS.) Psa 89:19-23 Then thou spakest in vision to thy saints, and saidst, I have laid help upon one that is mighty; (A mighty one, mighty man, the David Man-child reformers) I have exalted one chosen out of the people. 20 I have found David my servant; With my holy oil have I anointed him: 21 With whom my hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him. (In Isa 53, the arm of the Lord is Jesus, who we see here strengthening the David's)  22 The enemy shall not exact from him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. 23 And I will beat down his adversaries before him and smite them that hate him. When David was anointed, he beat down the factious Edomites, which we have in Church and State. Isa 52:11-53:1 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; cleanse yourselves, ye that bear the vessels of Jehovah. 12 For ye shall not go out in haste, neither shall ye go by flight: for Jehovah will go before you; and the God of Israel will be your rearward. 13 Behold, my servant shall deal wisely, he shall be exalted and lifted up, and shall be very high. 14 Like as many were astonished at thee (Who is just like thee? The Man-child David's just like Jesus were character assassinated, lied about, slanderered, and spiritually murdered, as Hisstory repeats. Both are defaced as the rest of this verse says.) (his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men), 15 so shall he sprinkle many nations; kings shall shut their mouths at him: for that which had not been told them shall they see; and that which they had not heard shall they understand. 53:1 Who hath believed our message? and to whom hath the arm of Jehovah been revealed? (Jesus) So, we see there were two manifestations of Jesus. First, we see that history or His Story has to repeat according to the Word. Ecc 1:9-12 That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 10 Is there a thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been long ago, in the ages which were before us. 11 There is no remembrance of the former generations; neither shall there be any remembrance of the latter generations that are to come, among those that shall come after. 12 I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem. (Now we can see that Jesus, the former generation, will be repeated by Jesus in the Man-child Body of the latter generation at the Latter Rain.) Notice once again there are two, Jesus, and as history repeats on the larger scale, Jesus in the Man-child body, which will cover the earth and be over mulitudes of the living.  Ecc 4:14 For out of prison he came forth to be king; yea, even in his kingdom he was born poor. (This was Jesus)15 I saw all the living that walk under the sun, that they were with the youth, the second, that stood up in his stead. (This is the Man-child body of reformers who will be over all the Living on the earth. They are the son of man in whom the Son of God lives by His Word and Spirit.) 16 There was no end of all the people, even of all them over whom he was: yet they that come after shall not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a striving after wind. The Mighty One will come to judge His enemies in Church and state and as a refiner or reformer to the Church all over the earth. Isa 1:24-26 Therefore saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies; 25 and I will turn my hand upon thee, and thoroughly purge away thy dross, and will take away all thy tin; 26 and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called The city of righteousness, a faithful town. Mal 3:1 Behold, I send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to his temple (At this time the temple of the Lord in Jerusalem is the Man-child Body of reformers.); and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye desire, behold, he cometh, saith Jehovah of hosts. 2 But who can abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap: 3  and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer unto Jehovah offerings in righteousness. 4 Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto Jehovah, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years. 5 And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against the false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the sojourner from his right, and fear not me, saith Jehovah of hosts. Isa 40:10-11 Behold, the Lord Jehovah will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him (Jesus in the Man-child body): Behold, his reward is with him (They will choose the Bride as Jesus did.), and his recompense before him. (He will judge the factions in Church and State)11 He will feed his flock like a shepherd (He will shepherd His Sheep, and all of this will be worldwide), he will gather the lambs in his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and will gently lead those that have their young. Isa 42:13-18 Jehovah will go forth as a mighty man (Jesus is coming as a Lion in the Man-child body to destroy the factious enemies in Church and state); he will stir up his zeal like a man of war: he will cry, yea, he will shout aloud; he will do mightily against his enemies. 14 I have long time holden my peace; I have been still and refrained myself: now will I cry out like a travailing woman (The Lord will come as the Man-child ministry is birthed from the travailing Woman in Rev.12); I will gasp and pant together. 15 I will lay waste mountains and hills and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands and will dry up the pools. 16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not (Jesus will come in the Manchild body to set the captives free for their dead religions as Jesus did in Isa 61); in paths that they know not will I lead them; I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things will I do, and I will not forsake them. 17 They shall be turned back, they shall be utterly put to shame, that trust in graven images, that say unto molten images, Ye are our gods. 18 Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see. Jer 20:10-13 For I have heard the defaming of many, terror on every side. Denounce, and we will denounce him, say all my familiar friends, they that watch for my fall; peradventure he will be persuaded, and we shall prevail against him, and we shall take our revenge on him. 11 But Jehovah is with me as a mighty one and a terrible (The Mighty one in Jeremiah was a type of the Man-child): therefore, my persecutors shall stumble, and they shall not prevail; they shall be utterly put to shame, because they have not dealt wisely, even with an everlasting dishonor which shall never be forgotten. 12 But, O Jehovah of hosts, that triest the righteous, that seest the heart and the mind, let me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I revealed my cause. 13 Sing unto Jehovah, praise ye Jehovah; for he hath delivered the soul of the needy from the hand of evil doers. Act 3:20-23 and that he may send the Christ who hath been appointed for you, even Jesus: 21 whom the heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, (things, here is italicized and has no numeric pattern as the Numeric NT shows. This is because the people were restored not all things.) whereof God spake by the mouth of his holy prophets that have been from of old. (This restoration happened to Moses and the people who came out of Egypt for there "was not one feeble one among them”. From then until Moses was 120; he had perfect health and strength.  Deu 34:7 And Moses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.)  So, Jesus is coming again in a body of spiritual Davids to bring this restoration and close the Red Sea on Pharaoh's army so we can go into the wilderness tribulation and see the guidance and miraculous provision for us through the Man-child body.)  22 Moses indeed said, A prophet shall the Lord God raise up unto you from among your brethren, like unto me; to him shall ye hearken in all things whatsoever he shall speak unto you. 23 And it shall be, that every soul that shall not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly destroyed from among the people. (Those who did not listen to Jesus in His first body were destroyed by the beast in 70 AD while the saints escaped to the mountains.  Those who do not listen to Jesus in His end time body will be destroyed also for His-Story will repeat as we have seen.) In Jesus' first body was crucified by the factious leaders and His flesh died but He was caught up to the throne. So, it will be in the second larger body. This crucifixion and death of the flesh is almost complete and then we will see Jesus' ministry again all over the world. Rev 12:1-6 And a great sign was seen in heaven: a woman  (the Church) arrayed with the sun (Clothed with the Son), and the moon under her feet (Reflecting the light of the Son), and upon her head a crown of twelve stars; (With the inheritance of the original 12 apostles. All of this is her position given to her by the sacrifice of Jesus and not what she has attained to.) 2 and she was with child; and she crieth out, travailing in birth, and in pain to be delivered. 3 And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads seven diadems. (The worldwide body of the Dragon) 4 And his tail draweth the third part of the stars of heaven and did cast them to the earth (The great falling away): and the dragon standeth before the woman that is about to be delivered, that when she is delivered, he may devour her child. 5 And she was delivered of a son, a man-child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron (Given to the overcomers in 2:26-27): and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her (Jesus in the Man-child nourishes the woman in the wilderness for 3 1/2 years as Jesus did in his first body.)  a thousand two hundred and threescore days.   Select Language Afrikaans Albanian Amharic Arabic Armenian Assamese Aymara Azerbaijani Bambara Basque Belarusian Bengali Bhojpuri Bosnian Bulgarian Catalan Cebuano Chichewa Chinese (Simplified) Chinese (Traditional) Corsican Croatian Czech Danish Dhivehi Dogri Dutch Esperanto Estonian Ewe Filipino Finnish French Frisian Galician Georgian German Greek Guarani Gujarati Haitian Creole Hausa Hawaiian Hebrew Hindi Hmong Hungarian Icelandic Igbo Ilocano Indonesian Irish Italian Japanese Javanese Kannada Kazakh Khmer Kinyarwanda Konkani Korean Krio Kurdish (Kurmanji) Kurdish (Sorani) Kyrgyz Lao Latin Latvian Lingala Lithuanian Luganda Luxembourgish Macedonian Maithili Malagasy Malay Malayalam Maltese Maori Marathi Meiteilon (Manipuri) Mizo Mongolian Myanmar (Burmese) Nepali Norwegian Odia (Oriya) Oromo Pashto Persian Polish Portuguese Punjabi Quechua Romanian Russian Samoan Sanskrit Scots Gaelic Sepedi Serbian Sesotho Shona Sindhi Sinhala Slovak Slovenian Somali Spanish Sundanese Swahili Swedish Tajik Tamil Tatar Telugu Thai Tigrinya Tsonga Turkish Turkmen Twi Ukrainian Urdu Uyghur Uzbek Vietnamese Welsh Xhosa Yiddish Yoruba Zulu Powered by Translate Printer-friendly version     © 2017 UBM | Unleavened Bread Ministries.

The “calling out” of Abe (and his friends) at church services reaches a boiling point at the famed “Old Rockhouse Holiness” in Section, Alabama. It's the church where author Dennis Covington of the hit book Salvation on Sand Mountain once became a convert and handled a massive rattlesnake. Abe tells the story of the founding of the church: the infamous murder trial and conviction at the heart of it.  After one service that Abe attended, with rattlesnakes in the building, the lights are shut off. In the darkness, Abe and his friend consider running out of the church. Meanwhile, Abe has his first encounter with National Geographic: a run-in with a photographer at both Old Rockhouse Holiness Church and, in the same weekend, Jimmy Morrow's church in Cocke County, Tennessee.   Brother Jimmy Morrow takes Abe to a graveyard high in the east Tennessee mountains, to see the graves of four believers who died following the signs.  Visit the Alabama Astronaut Podcast website for more content!Alabama Astronaut Podcast website Find us on social, too:Alabama Astronaut FacebookAlabama Astronaut's TwitterAlabama Astronaut Instagram Special thanks this episode:  Old Rock House Holiness Church Bro.

Preserved From the Beast (16) (Audio) David Eells - 10/20/21 They Shall Not Prevail Against Thee David Eells - 10/16/21 On 10/16/21, I asked for a word by faith at random for what is happening NOW.  Jer 15:20-21  And I will make thee unto this people a fortified brazen wall; and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith Jehovah.  21  And I will deliver thee out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem thee out of the hand of the terrible. I had written, in brackets, a side note that I had received this on 3/17/19. This timing was in our last program already as a past delay that will end in these days. So the wicked faction will fail to catch the Davids for God is with them. And Cyrus/Trump will help them to rebuild the Kingdom. That same night, 10/16/21 I had a vivid dream. I saw several rag-tag disheveled looking people chasing me and in the dream I thought “for what?”. (The answer is because the dragon wants to devour the Davids) They were shooting at me with buckshot. (Scatter shot represents various slanders.) (Psalm 17:8-13 Keep me as the apple of the eye; Hide me under the shadow of thy wings, 9 From the wicked that oppress me, My deadly enemies, that compass me about. 10 They are inclosed in their own fat: With their mouth they speak proudly.  11 They have now compassed us in our steps; They set their eyes to cast us down to the earth. 12 He is like a lion that is greedy of his prey, And as it were a young lion lurking in secret places. 13 Arise, O Jehovah, Confront him, cast him down: Deliver my soul from the wicked by thy sword. The Lord is coming in a garment stained with the blood of the factious Edomites. As the DS criminals are being executed after military tribunals, so will be the deep church criminals as our dreams and words have shown.) Their leader was shorter than the rest of them. (This represents the stunted maturity of the factious leadership.) To make up for this he had on a tall, 10 gallon hat (representing his inflated ego).  I was easily avoiding them as they ran around feverishly trying to kill me. (Our intel in dreams and visions and Words that the Father gives to us to warn us of their plans is far better than theirs. They plan a big slander attack and theft. His assistant spies on us everywhere but nothing will save them. Mat. 10:23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee into the next: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone through the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.) Then I saw that a ferocious Lion was chasing them.  Their guns were useless against him as he devoured them one by one. (Isa 62:11-63:3  Behold, Jehovah hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.  12  And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of Jehovah: and thou shalt be called Sought out, A city not forsaken.  63:1  Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? (Edoms sheepfold) this that is glorious in his apparel, marching in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.  2  Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winevat?  3  I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment. The Lord is coming in His Man-child body to fulfill Isa 61:2 to proclaim the year of Jehovah's favor, (Jesus quoted up to this point) and the day of vengeance of our God; (Jesus didn't speak this last phrase underlined when He came the first time as a Lamb, but this time He is coming as a Lion with vengeance against our enemies.) to comfort all that mourn; 3 to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; (The Bride will cease mourning and be full of joy when this comes.) that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified. 4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations. (The Man-child and Bride will rebuild the Davidic Kingdom that was destroyed by the apostates.) (This dream is a confirmation of the faction and their little boss chasing me like the dragon trying to devour the Man-child but failing and being devoured by the Lion of Judah, Jesus Christ.)    Dealing with the Factious David Eells - 6/5/11 Though this happened in 2011 it fits a pattern ever since. Back then I had a very unusual and memorable vision early in the morning. I saw myself as a normal person in a cartoon. I was in a long, log cabin cartoon house. I heard a voice warning, "David, the dragon has sent the "ink-lies" against you”. (Meaning slander) I opened the door on one end of the cartoon cabin and looked to my left. (Where Jesus put the goats.)  I saw a cartoon dragon with his head stuck into a back window of the cabin all the way up to his shoulders. Most of what I saw outside was the tail of the dragon.  As I saw this, the dragon pulled his head out and faced me. I then saw cartoon, black letters, black characters, sneaking through the house from the back window.   As I came out of this vision, the Lord gave me the interpretation. The long, log cabin house is UBM in the wilderness. The dragon is the local part of the corporate beast inhabited by Satan, as in Revelation 12. The prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail (Isa.9:15). The mouth of the dragon was in the house speaking lies, which were turning into black text, the "ink-lies”.  The faction dragon is He who does not come through the door, which are these self appointed fakes, “but climbeth up some other way" coming into the back of the house, as Jesus said in John 10:1. He was coming through the window in the back as a thief who comes to steal, as Jesus also said: (10:10) The thief cometh not, but that he may steal, and kill, and destroy: I came that they may have life, and may have [it] abundantly.  These thieves, of course, are the ones who are not sent by the Lord; they speak lies to seek to steal a position of leadership and the people's hearts away from those who come through the door of Jesus.  How do they sneak in the back way? Matthew 18:15 tells them to first face the person they are accusing but they go first to the saints, which is the third step in verse 17. They are as a thief going to the saints first. They are called “Backstabbers” in the Word. They know their lies wont stand up to truth so they are told to avoid David.  We have had a parade of these people the last few years.  It is a cartoon because it is not a thing to be feared. It is God cleansing the church, because the wicked in heart listen to these people and separate from the righteous, for "an evil doer giveth heed to lying lips". It is also for the purpose of crucifying the true leaders, as was done with Jesus, the apostles, and the prophets throughout history. A brother shared a dream with us. He said, “I was in a long classroom with many UBM brethren. I was near the front of the class when I saw a person enter the rear of the room and begin to speak to each person from the back going toward the front.  I was apprehensive because this person is well-known to us as a lying, factious slanderer who sought a position of authority in UBM and was angry when David stood in his way. I tried to call David to warn him but couldn't get through.  Then David came into the room, as an 8-year-old man-child, and rebuked this slanderer. David said, "In the name of Jesus, get out of here!" and factious slanderer left the room. (The 8-year-old Man-child is the pre-anointed Man-child who is 30 years old when anointed. Little David kept his Father's flocks before He became king. He slew the beasts, the lion and bear, who sought to take the sheep by stealth.)   Then David followed him out and he and another man-child began to fight with the slanderer. End of dream. (This all sounds very much like my vision. We never suspected this person would come back to fulfill this dream but that there were others with his same factious spirits who, through factious slander or divisive criticism, would seek to usurp authority in the assembly.) Of course, casting these people out is commanded to keep them from leavening the whole body. {1Co.5:7} Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been sacrificed, [even] Christ: {8} wherefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth …  {11} but as it is, I wrote unto you not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother be ... a reviler (speaking against the brethren) ... with such a one no, not to eat. {12} For what have I to do with judging them that are without? Do not ye judge them that are within? {13} But them that are without God judgeth. Put away the wicked man from among yourselves.  {2Th.3:6} Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which they received of us ... {14} And if any man obeyeth not our word by this epistle, note that man, that ye have no company with him, to the end that he may be ashamed. In cases where there is rejection and factious criticism involved, you won't have to cast them out; they will leave because of their own demonic unforgiveness and bitterness. We also do this "that they may be ashamed" and repent, because if they do not, they will die like the murmurers and complainers did in the wilderness in Numbers 14. Also, in Numbers 16, the usurpers of Moses' authority in the Korah, Dathan and Abiram rebellion died in the wilderness. They forsook assembling together with the saints because of their offense and Moses called the assembly to separate from them or partake of their judgments, just as we should today. After this dream, Gerard received two dreams which he had received a week apart that torturers were sneaking into the body through the back way to torture the UBM brethren. In one of the dreams, we were running a huge ship to carry brethren to the refuge while this was happening. In the other, the brethren were seeking to hide in a large van and the torturers were sneaking in the back door as one of them held it open. All of this warning, in just a little over a week, lets you know the devil's plan of attack. The Bible tells you to report these sly actions to the elders and mark or make known such persons. Under the guise of concerned persons, they air their murmurings and complaining until the listener's heart is poisoned against others or often the leadership. {Rom.16:17} Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them that are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine which ye learned: and turn away from them. {18} For they that are such serve not our Lord Christ, but their own belly; and by their smooth and fair speech they beguile the hearts of the innocent.  Jesus, speaking to the body, said that worldly members of the body who cause stumbling should be cut off so the whole body isn't cast into hell. {Mat.18:7} Woe unto the world because of occasions of stumbling! for it must needs be that the occasions come; but woe to that man through whom the occasion cometh!  {8} And if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life maimed or halt, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into the eternal fire. {9} And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is good for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire. These factious, critical people were reported to the elders in the scriptures and must be reported today also, (just as in Lanita Sue Creech's dream.) {1Co.1:11} For it hath been signified unto me concerning you, my brethren, by them [that are of the household] of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. {11:18} For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and I partly believe it. {19} For there must be also factions among you, that they that are approved may be made manifest among you.  Notice that the disobedient will be known when this happens because those who are approved will be manifested through their obedience. {1Jn.2:19} They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but [they went out], that they might be made manifest that they all are not of us. Since the primary reason is usually faction or division for the sake of lifting up 'self' to usurp authority. (Most of the people who led factions were never an elder. They ordained themselves; giving themselves titles.) You should admonish such a one twice -- the first and second time they speak factiously before separating from them, even if they have been a friend, because we must do it for the sake of the body. {Tit.3:10} A factious man after a first and second admonition refuse; {11} knowing that such a one is perverted, and sinneth, being self-condemned. (We have found that people who don't obey this command are captured by the demons.) Notice we are told in these verses to turn away from them or refuse them. (In my experience, when a person disobeys this or receives an accusation against an elder without witnesses or doesn't turn the railer or reviler around by asking them if they have gone to the person's face, as Matthew 18:15 commands, the listener then gets the factious demons and is separated from the body. This cleanses the body. It is a trial from God to see who will obey and who should be separated because of their own sin. Why is God sending this trial now? Because many more souls are coming to take refuge among the saints as a safe place. When they come, the lion and bear shouldn't be there waiting for innocent souls. The shepherd who permits this leaves the back door of the fold open and is as guilty as the factious and may well get that spirit.) I have seen a consistent pattern over the years; a common scenario that happens when people suddenly rise up against our ministry. It is a common M.O. and trap that the devil has laid for them. It goes something like this: A person with rejection and fear of rejection is oppressed by these spirits for many years and so earnestly desires the opposite -- respect, admiration, being looked up to, feeling important, being a leader, etc.  Finally, one day the opportunity comes for them to be in the spotlight and they like the feeling. They get a rush when they are promoted by others or promote themselves to others. So they go after it by seeking the glory from men.  Sometimes they see a shepherd whom they think stands in their way and they begin to tear him down behind the scenes. It really doesn't matter to them that this minister has given their all to serve them and deliver them from darkness and that he is holy in the Lord's eyes.  Soon the persons whom they spoke to begin to withdraw from this shepherd because their hearts are poisoned with whispering, nitpicking and slander. When the shepherd searches for the source of all this and faces them with their sin, they feel once again the pain of these lying spirits who turn even kind correction into rejection and fear of rejection. So, in self-will they retaliate against the shepherd, their old friend, weirdly seeing him as the enemy when all he has done is good toward them and loved them. And he wonders what happened. Why have my good friends done this to me? Why have they deserted me? Hoping not to bring public and personal rebuke to those who already have rejection, the shepherd seeks to inoculate his flock with teaching so the disease doesn't spread, as shepherds must do. The offended bring up all kinds of things that are not sins against the shepherd because the devil is seeking to destroy him and his reputation through them. And they want to separate disciples unto themselves.  They are immature and puffed up and, contrary to the Biblical methods, acting as though God has ordained them to be elders and to take authority over the one who has been a shepherd for many years. They account this shepherd unworthy of forgiveness which they want for themselves but now have lost. In these cases, Matthew 18:15-17 has to be finally and painfully observed. They twist the scriptures to prove a point that doesn't account for anything but it is simply an excuse to seek their own glory. When one with rejection starts factious criticism, it is for the sake of self-glory. They sow a spirit of discord, which God says He hates.  They are like Esau, who was a son of Abraham/Isaac, and sold his birthright by following the flesh and persecuting the elect. They become unholy and unreliable before God and don't have the humility or conscience to repent and restore the damage they have done. "He that returneth evil for good, evil will not depart from his house”.  Jesus said, {Joh.5:41} I receive not glory from men. {42} But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in yourselves. {43} I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. {44} How can ye believe, who receive glory one of another, and the glory that [cometh] from the only God ye seek not? …  {8:50} But I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth. ... {54} Jesus answered, If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father that glorifieth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God. ... {12:43} for they loved the glory [that is] of men more than the glory [that is] of God. They fail the test in the wilderness and accuse Moses, who gave his life for them and suffered much to bring them out of Egypt. And like in Korah's rebellion, God was angry and swallowed them up alive. Most of these people just become swallowed alive by the earth of their flesh, being darkened in their understanding as they wander further from the truth and are tormented by the tormentors. Some of them die by diseases, too.  God told me He would curse those who cursed me and He has always been true to that Word but I don't desire this for my brethren and pray for mercy for them. These people almost never confess their sins for fear of rejection and so they are never cleansed of unrighteousness (1Jn 1:9  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.). They are factious, critical and they spread discord, dividing people unto themselves by self-willed opinions, which is the definition of the Greek word for "heresies". Important reading to avoid faction: Deliverance from Rejection and Its Fear   Separating the Factious from the Righteous Belinda - 10/04/2011 (David's notes in red) At 4:30 a.m. this morning, I had a vision: It was dark, but in the darkness I saw a house. The house was shining very brightly on the right side; it appeared to be glowing. I saw people gathered in a circle; they were very tall and they seemed at peace. They were praying and singing praises to the Lord. (This is the UBM house and in a larger type the house of God. They were on the right side because they were sheep which Jesus put on the right. That side was shining brightly because the glory of God is there. They were tall because they were big and mature in the ways of the Lord.) On the left side of the house it was very dark and smoke was coming out of the walls. The people looked like dwarves. They were angry and agitated, and they kept pacing back and forth. (The left is, of course, those who act as goats, which Jesus put on His left. It was very dark because they are walking in darkness. Smoke is coming out of the walls because their sanctification is being destroyed by the judgment of God that is upon them. They were dwarves because they have been stunted in their growth and are small even according to man's standards. They are angry and agitated because they are full of faction, anger, slander, wrath, etc. They are pacing back and forth because they are nervous and stirred up by these spirits.) There was a door that separated the two sides of the house. There were no handles on either side of this door. (God has made a separation between the righteous and the factious. They may not get at the truly righteous who obey His Word to separate from them and we may not minister to them, for God has given them over to this reprobation for now.) The people on the left were angry because they could not figure out how to get this door open to get at the people on the other side. (The goats have been bitter and angrily trying to get at the righteous with their slander.) They wanted to stop those people from singing and praising the Lord. (The demons hate peace and praise among the righteous.) There was a crack about 3/4 of the way down through the center of the house. It looked like at any time the house would split apart. (This is the spiritual earthquake we have seen that is separating those who walk in sin from the refuge and Bride. The separation will soon be physical and those who do not repent will leave our house as a purified house. The Lord said to me, as I meditated on this, that His foot is pushing down on the left side of the house. Looks like possibly there is a quarter of the way left to go but as the weight of their sin becomes greater they will break off. Father has been showing us for several years through dreams, visions and prophecy that an army of demons would make war with UBM and myself in an attempt to destroy our influence on Earth but at the same time we were shown we would become greater in holiness, power and ministry.) I noticed that the right side of the house was firmly on the foundation, whereas the left side of the house had no ground under it. I thought to myself, if that house splits all the way, the left side is going to fall and there's nothing to catch it! (They are not founded on the rock of God's Word but "on the sand" of the abyss and Jesus said, concerning the fall of that house, great was the fall thereof (Mat.7:24-27). Unforgiveness has taken away grace from them for which only Hell awaits without repentance. At that time, we were told by the factious leaders, in emails and in front of the assembly, that they would leave peaceably but they lied because they had their eye on carving up UBM for themselves from the cover of darkness, which failed. God also had His plan to separate those who could give in to these lusts and so He has. We pray constantly for our brethren that they would come to repentance and we know that some will.)    Lion/Iron Man VS. Predator Eve Brast - 9/22/21 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that UBM was located in an old house with dark blue, textured carpeting. We were all there waiting for something to happen. (The old house represents following the ancient paths and clinging to the Word that we heard from the beginning. I believe we were waiting for the anointing of the Man-child ministries and the 7 year tribulation to begin.) David (Representing the pre-anointed Man-child Davids) was there standing in the midst of us and I was holding a brown paper bag in my right hand. It was rolled down at the edges and had unshelled peanuts in it to eat. It was only a quarter full. (In the natural, the food supply is dwindling because of a DS engineered famine. This has been happening slowly over the past 1 1/2 years since the lockdowns began. Spiritually speaking, Our Deep Church has done what they could to destroy the food in the granaries for the 7 years of famine by taking down our website and videos but they have failed. As we will see later on in this dream, the Man-child Jesus is coming to expound on the revelations we've received at UBM and His Word. He will increase our spiritual food.) As I pulled out a peanut, I noticed that they looked like Brazil nuts but were white in color. I ate it and it tasted funny to me and different than a usual peanut. I offered some to one of the brethren standing near me and as I did this some of them fell on the floor. The peanuts began transforming into locusts and were crawling around slowly on the carpet. (In the natural, this could represent famine taking over our food supply. It didn't happen suddenly in the dream but more gradually. Spiriually speaking, the factious leadership in the Church has created a lack of the food of the kingdom; the good news of the Gospel. These locusts represent the Northern army of Joel 1 & 2.) Then I walked out to the front yard where there was a brown shed like the one in David's backyard at his house in real life; only this shed was older. I went inside the shed and climbed onto a large bed that  Anna Stewart was sitting on. (Anna means: grace or favor. And Stewart means: household guardian. She represents the first fruits Bride company.)  The bed had all white sheets and bedding (Representing resting in sanctification) and took up the entire space inside the shed except for about a 2 foot space between the foot of the bed and the entrance of the shed. (This represents a place of safety and rest which the Bride has learned to come into in all her trials and preparations to be able to minister the Gospel; The Real Good News, in the wilderness tribulation.) As we sat together ‘Indian style' near the foot of the bed talking, I looked down at the floor of the shed between the end of the bed and the front door and noticed the same dark blue textured carpeting that had been inside the old house. I was also still carrying the brown bag of peanuts in my right hand. I noticed a bunch of fire ants and 'peanut locusts' from the house crawling around on the carpet in the shed. (These represent the spiritual fiery darts of the enemy and the physical trials of famine and food shortages and also the locusts who have devoured God's people in Joel 1) I was wearing these bright white socks on my feet and complaining to Anna that every time I tried to put my left foot down onto the carpet, the fire ants would all swarm onto my white sock and try to bite me through the sock even though they couldn't bite me. She replied, “Well, why are you doing that? Just don't do it.” I then realized how ridiculous my complaining was and how unnecessary that trial was since I didn't have to set my foot down onto the carpet at all. We were supposed to stay on the bed anyway since it took up the entire space inside the shed and the fire ants and locusts couldn't come onto the bed even if they'd wanted to! (This represents getting out of the continual rest that we are commanded to stay in by faith. When we focus on what the enemy is trying to do or the problems around us, we are putting our feet down and walking on the earth. We are not walking in heavenly places with Christ. This causes us to blow the situations out of proportion in our minds and we end up in fear, doubt and complaining to God and putting ourselves through trials that we didn't have to go through to begin with.) I felt silly for looking for something to complain about and putting myself through a trial that I didn't have to go through and said, “Well, that's true! You're right. I don't have to put my foot down there.” After a bit I knew it was time to go back into the house and when I went out of the shed, I looked over where the house used to be and it had transformed into a cave on the side of a sheer precipice of a mountain that was made up of one giant gray rock. (The Rock is Christ that followed the Israelites through the wilderness. The cave represents the cleft in the Rock where God's people are hidden and take refuge like in AA Allen's end-time vision of the cleft of the Rock.) It didn't seem like a naturally occurring cave but one that had been blasted out of the side of the mountain with dynamite. (This protection will be supernatural and not natural by the works of man's hands.) It was shallow and only extended back into rock about 30 feet. I don't know how I got over to the cave but I must have walked on the air because it was located high up on the side of the sheer precipice. (The way to this place of safety is spiritual and not by our own efforts to save ourselves.) UBM was in the cave and we had lots of boxes and wooden crates stacked up all over inside of the cave. They were full UBM materials, books and food supplies. But, I didn't see David anywhere. The world around us had changed so much in a short period of time and was much more evil and dangerous now. (As we will see, I believe David was somewhere (in a phone booth, lol,) turning into Lion Man. :o) In the dream I was having trouble with my heart, as were many others of my brethren in the cave. (Heart troubles represent our struggle with death to self and chasing the crucified life and the human weaknesses that our flesh nature tries to control us with; fear, doubt, unbelief etc... Even Jesus experienced this and overcame it in John 12:23-28, And Jesus answereth them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat fall into the earth and die, it abideth by itself alone; but if it die, it beareth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life loseth it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will the Father honor. 27 Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour (?). But for this cause came I unto this hour. 28 Father, glorify thy name. There came therefore a voice out of heaven, saying , I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.) As I was experiencing this ‘heart trouble' in the dream a super hero (I'll call Lion Man) suddenly appeared in the cave with us. His head was the head of a Lion with golden spun hairs intermingled with the hairs of His mane. He talked with a deep rich voice that was very dignified and regal. (Like James Earl Jones' voice). He was wearing a dark grey body suit (representing the crucified life of death to self) It had a circular Arc Reactor where His heart used to be (Like Tony Stark from Iron Man) only Lion Man's Arc Reactor was golden all around the edges. (The golden Arc Reactor could be a play on words for ARK which was where the power and presence of God rested during the Israelites time in the wilderness and also the place of safety for Noah and his family as it lifted off of the earth when the flood waters of judgment were released on the rest of mankind.) This Arc Reactor was the source of His super powers and emitted a bright light. (This represents the latter reign anointing of the Man-child ministers to lead and teach God's people through the first 3 1/2 years of the tribulation. The Lion of Judah, Jesus, is their head. In the movie, Iron Man, the character, Tony Stark, was wounded in the chest by shrapnel from an enemy attack, so he invented an electromagnetic Arc Reactor to prevent the shards of metal going into his heart and killing him. He then built a powerful body armor suit that was powered by the Arc Reactor in order to escape from his enemies that were holding him captive. This represents the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus that provides us with the armor of God so that we can have His same power to escape our enemies that try to take us captive.) Lion Man began taking slightly smaller, thinner replicas of His Arc Reactor and installing them in each of our chests with speed and precision. After this we didn't have anymore heart problems and we all had superpowers like Him. We all felt a new, inner power and faith surging through us and nothing felt impossible for us anymore. It was like we had a new invincibility to take on the new evil world that we were now surrounded by. (The Man-child ministers will pass on their anointing to the Bride so that she can pass it on to the elect of God in the wilderness tribulation.) Lion Man had David's Bible and He opened it up as we all gathered around Him to hear what He had to say. The pages were super white and all the words were in large print. He began expounding on the Word of God to us and we were understanding it like never before! The revelations and truths that He shared with us had been hidden up until that point. We were all blown away by the understanding and the knowledge He imparted to us.  He then broke open the crates with the UBM materials and opened up one of the books and the pages appeared as they do in the texts of the Bible Studies with David's notes in red. Lion Man was also expounding on the books as well. He began improving on David's notes and explaining further the interpretations of the revelations that David had received and it's like our minds were opened up to really understand the things of God. (Lion man represents the latter reign anointed Man-child and He is explaining the David's former reign anointed teachings.) With the latter reign anointing will come deeper and greater understanding and application of the Word of God and bring us more power to increase the Kingdom of God.) After this, He told us that our mission was to go and bring food and the UBM materials to all the children that belonged to Him. Sometimes it would just be a delivery and other times we were there to rescue the children from their abusive parents or captors and bring them back to the cave with us. (Many of God's elect have been starved and or abused spiritually by the greedy apostate shepherds and will be set free to follow the Man-child and Bride bodies into the wilderness. Rev. 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days.) We began flying out of the cave on our perspective missions wearing the same dark grey body suits with the Arc Reactors like what Lion Man was wearing.  But we were met with heavy resistance by a new invading alien force that looked like the Predator Aliens from the movie, Aliens VS Predators. They also had a circular power source in their chests that emitted a greenish/yellow glow. It had what looked like green slimy veins all around the edges of it. (Bill Steinland had a dream that a Predator demon from this same movie was trying to kill David the night before he fell from a ladder and almost died in real life. I also had a dream that a Predator demon was working with the faction to destroy UBM and our materials.)  They would fight against us in mid-air by flinging greenish sticky discs at us that looked like the power sources in their chests. They were trying to keep us from saving the children and bringing them the food and materials that they needed to survive. (The factious and witchcraft demons have been doing this for years through attacks on our reputation, our contact people and workers, our materials and computers etc.) At one point I was training a young girl with long light brown hair, on the narrow ledge of the precipice, how to make it safely to the cave and one of the Predator enemies was suspended in mid-air behind us about 30 yards back. He was flinging the greenish sticky discs at us and most of them were sticking to the rock wall all around us as I drew her close to my side for protection. (This represents our little sister described in Song of Solomon. They are God's elect that are the second fruits of the end-time great revival and tribulation harvest.) I was grabbing the enemies disks off of the wall and flinging them back at him just as quickly. At one point, one of them landed on my right upper arm but without any effect. I pulled it off and flung it back at him hitting him in the chest with his own weapon. (Their devices will return upon their own heads.) He was mainly trying to interfere with our mission and get us to lose our balance on the ledge since that was the only power he really had. None of our enemies were able to harm us, they were only trying, desperately, to stop us or delay our missions to save the children. Then I woke up.   The Factious Lion Cannot Harm Those in the Cleft of the Rock Claire Pienaar - 9/22/21 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I watched a lion that looked like the lion character named ‘Scar' from the animated Disney movie, "Lion King.” (Scar is the weaker lion who is the brother of Mufasa (Meaning: King) the Lion King. He conspires with the Hyenas (Judas and the leaders) and succeeds in killing Mufasa (Jesus) and driving Simba, Mufasa's  son (Man-child in whom Jesus lives), who is the young lion cub heir to the kingdom out of the land. (Like Joseph in prison by the harlot until:) (Simba means: Courageous Warrior) Scar eventually fails to inherit the kingdom once Simba is fully grown and realizes his own strength and power to defeat his 'Judas' Uncle ‘Scar'. He then returns to Pride Rock and defeats Scar and his band of Hyenas (The Judas Faction) in an ultimate, final battle between good and evil and this restores justice and beauty back to the land in the movie. (Interestingly, According to Wikipedia, James Earl Jones was the voice-over for Mufasa, the Lion King, in this movie as Eve had described the voice of Lion-man in her dream above.)  In my dream the lion chased 5 young children into a cave. (The number 5 represents grace which Father gives to all those with child-like faith.) (I think there was one Middle-Eastern looking little boy, about 7 years in age, (Seven is the number of completion and of the churches. The boy represents the Man-child, Jesus, in His corporate body of ministers who will teach the Bride in the wilderness in the safety of the cleft in the Rock.) and the rest were little blonde girls that were younger versions of my own daughters who have blonde hair in real life. (The blonde haired girls represent the corporate body of the first fruits Bride who are submitted to Christ.)  This reminds me of Psalm 27:5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion: In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me; He will lift me up upon a rock.) (Here, again, we see a cartoon dragon character, in the from of a lion, seeking to devour and destroy the Man-child lion who is the rightful heir to the throne and the Kingdom of God. Rev.12:4-6 …the dragon standeth before the woman that is about to be delivered, that when she is delivered he may devour her child. 5 And she was delivered of a son, a man child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days.) As they made it into the mouth of the cave, these big strong metal bars... came over the mouth of the cave. The children squeezed through bars so they were now contained inside the cave. The lion could not get through, and he was growling and roaring and very desperate to get to these children. (1 Pe. 5:8 Be sober, be watchful: your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour,) The children went deeper into the cave. (God's elect press into abiding in Christ, the Rock, during times of tribulation.) There was a stream or river of water that ran through the cave, and they were playing and swimming in the water. (Jesus is the Word made flesh and He is the Living Water that we drink from in order to have eternal life. He is the Rock of our salvation. John 4:13-14 Jesus answered and said unto her, Every one that drinketh of this water shall thirst again: 14 but whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall become in him a well of water springing up unto eternal life.) I saw the lion gain entrance to the cave from another way. (The factious leaders in the Church were not anointed to shepherd God's people. They are liars, thieves and murderers. And they are doing their father, satan's, bidding; robbing God's people and killing them spiritually and physically through their witchcraft prayers. John 10:1 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.) The lion was trying to get into the water to swim with the current to where the children were but there didn't seem to be a way for him to do it and he was getting angry. (The woman will be protected in the cleft of the Rock in the wilderness.) I received this verse by faith at random when I asked the Lord about this dream.  Psalm 55:3: Because of the voice of the enemy, Because of the oppression of the wicked; For they cast iniquity upon me, And in anger they persecute me.   The Lion of Judah Will Fight for Us Merlene Laughlin - 7/26/21 (David's notes in red)  I was taking a nap on the couch and had nicely gotten to sleep when I had a vision. I saw myself suddenly go from a sideways lying position to a sitting position facing frontwards. (A frontward facing position represents facing the enemy and taking them head-on.) It wasn't as though an attack had come on me, but, I was ferociously praying in the Spirit, and shouting and commanding; staying seated with my feet planted on the floor. I could not get up!  Looking ahead, I could see the periphery on each side of me. I could see all around me for protection. There was a shield, two inches thick, in place about me that nothing could penetrate. It was made of a substance that I didn't know. (We have a Psalm 91 protection that is promised to us when we abide in Christ.) My hands and arms were in a fighting mode. (Psalm 18:24 He teacheth my hands to war; So that mine arms do bend a bow of brass.) I knew that there were other people in our UBM body that I was helping. I saw them only as shadowy figures that were standing together behind a wall, 2 inches thick by 6 feet high. The wall was made of the same material that my shield was made from and was about twelve feet away from me. (We are called to do spiritual warfare for our brethren in the kingdom.) I was still shouting in the Spirit as I noticed my hands. Sometimes they would make fists, then open and make a chop, chop motion. All of a sudden, as I watched my hands, they turned into the paws of a lion, tan in color, up to my forearms. (Isa. 40:10 Behold, the Lord Jehovah will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him: Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.) I was wondering how long this would continue on, but I could not stop fighting in the Spirit until the attack was over. From somewhere else came my strength. Then suddenly, the attack went away. It was defeated! (And the Lion of Judah, who is Christ in us our hope of glory, won the battle for us!

The Faction Election War Won (5) (Audio) Trust God as a Child David Eells - 12-13-20 If we put our trust in man we will fail.  I have said for a while that I didnt believe God would give us the victory over the DS without us first being weak for God's power is made perfect through weakness. He wants us to put our trust in Him as a little child so He can show His power to the World to save us from this beast. Lately the Trump administration has lost every battle. He is showing us our inability to save ourselves so we can receive this salvation by grace and not by mens power. Little David refused Sauls armor and weapon to fight with Goliath because he had not proved them.  He killed the lion and bear by the power of God not men. Goliath had all the weapons of man. David said You come to me with a sword and a spear but I come to you in the name of the Lord. I would that our leaders in the physical world would proclaim His name before the enemy. David chose 5 smooth stones but used only one to take down Goliath. The senses are these stones that were polished in the water of God’s Word. David chose a stone which he sent on ahead to take down Goliath.  In the New Testament we find that Jesus is the rock which the builder rejected. The stone that followed the Israelites was Jesus. When Does His power come like this to a little child? The child is weak but trusts in his father.  It is our faith that counts, the world and the worldly Church doesnt have any.  Their faith is in President Trump but he needs our childlike faith for his power.  At the moment no grace is being shown so we know that we must exercise faith like a child. What we each have to do is become as a child because we can walk with the Lord if we become as a child. The thing about grownups is they’re self-confident, self-sufficient, self-dependent. All of those traits the world thinks of as being positive, but in the Kingdom they’re not considered that way by God. The Lord says the only way you can enter into the Kingdom is to be a child. Jesus said, “suffer the little children to come unto me; forbid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God (Mar.10:14). Forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God, is what it said in the original. Of such is the kingdom of God. (15) Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein. (16) And he took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands upon them.” Now we tend to think of the Kingdom as someplace that we’re going to so that we can enter into it, but actually we’re entering into the Kingdom here. In reality, the Kingdom is every place in your life. The kingdom of God is within you (Luk.17:21), Jesus said. The Kingdom is every place in your life where God is able to rule. God is not able to rule until you’re in agreement with Him. To be a child is to be confident in your Father, not self-confident. It’s to be dependent upon your Father, not self-dependent. This is valuable to God. As He said, “my righteous one shall live by (“from” in the Numeric) faith: And if he shrink back, my soul hath no pleasure in him” (Heb.10:38).  What pleases God is that we live from faith, that we not live from our self-confidence, or our self-sufficiency, or our own ability, or the strength of the arm of the flesh, but that we put our trust in God and walk with Him like a little child walks with his father. In other words, there’s no other way to enter into the Kingdom. We must give up being grownups. We must become as children. In order for God to be able to rule everywhere in our lives, we have to become as children. (Mat.18:1) In that hour came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven? (2) And he called to him a little child, and set him in the midst of them, (3) and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. And these were His disciples that He was telling this to. These were not the lost Pharisees; these were the disciples of Jesus, those who were learning and following Him. He said you will not enter in unless you turn and become as little children. The process of the Christian life is this process of turning and becoming as little children and becoming God-dependent, God-sufficient and God-confident. (Mat.18:4) Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. (5) And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. You see, Jesus was a little child. That’s Who He was. He says, if you receive one of these little children, you receive Me. That’s somebody who’s in My likeness; you receive Me. He was a child. He really was. He wasn’t a grownup in the ways of the world, in the ways of confidence in the world, the strength of the world.  Grownups are known for making their own way, making their own living, being self-sufficient, being great providers, but the Lord wants to wash all that out of us. He wants us to put all of our confidence and our trust in Him and become as little children. If you receive one such little child, you receive Jesus. That’s the way He was. He was confident in His Lord. I’ll tell you, the best way we can help ourselves is by walking by faith in God’s Word. You’ve probably heard the old saying that, “God helps those who help themselves,” but that’s not found in the Bible. That saying is credited to Benjamin Franklin in his Poor Richard’s Almanac. No, the best way to help yourself is walking in faith in God’s Word. (Rom.14:22) The faith which thou hast, have thou to thyself before God. That’s what the Bible says. You can help yourself. You can help yourself to everything that God has for you through faith in His Word. (Luk.10:21) In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight. What was He talking about? Reveal what things to the babes? Well, the disciples had just come back from being sent out by the Lord to take authority over the works of the devil. They came back rejoicing that God had given them authority over the power of the devil and that they had done the works of Jesus, and they saw that the spirits were subject unto them. But why did Jesus call them babes? Well, it was babes who received this revelation of the authority of Jesus and it was babes who received this revelation of how to use the authority of Jesus.  Let’s back up a little in this chapter. (Luk.10:3) Go your ways; behold, I send you forth as lambs in the midst of wolves. (4) Carry no purse, no wallet, no shoes; and salute no man on the way. So we see they were babes because Jesus sent them out totally dependent upon the Lord. (5) And into whatsoever house ye shall enter, first say, Peace [be] to this house. (6) And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him: but if not, it shall turn to you again. And so he said, “salute no man on the way” because you really don’t know people but you find out later who people are. We’re going to find out before the end of the tribulation who people really are and who His children are. God sent these disciples out as children, as totally dependent upon the Lord, not self-sufficient, not able to take care of themselves. He deliberately took away their ability to take care of themselves when He sent them by not letting them take any kind of insurance with them. The only thing they took was His assurance because He said, “the laborer is worthy of his hire” (Luk.10:7), meaning, if you just go, God will always pay His workers. You don’t have to worry about it. God is that way. He wants us to go without our own sufficiency or our own insurance so that we can see His provision on the way. I really truthfully believe that Jesus never changed this way of sending out people. Many times, if God says, “Go,” you may go. It doesn’t matter if you have the wherewithal to do this. If God says, “Go,” you may go. He will never fail you. He will meet you on the way. He’s done it many, many times with me when He said, “Go,” and I’ve noticed, “But, God, I don’t have this” or “I don’t have gas” or “I don’t have money.” But God doesn’t take “no” for an answer. If He says, “Go,” you can go because He will be there.  He’ll put gas in your car. He’s done it to me several times. Or He’ll make it run without gas. He’s done that, too. Or He’ll put money in your pocket somehow or another. He’ll do it. Or He’ll make your money stretch. He can surely multiply it. He can do all things. He’ll have you meet-up with people whom He has put there specifically to supply your needs, if you go by faith and be obedient to Him. If you go as a child, just trusting in your Father. In America, there are far too few children. Everybody in America seems grown-up. Everybody in America wants to insulate themselves against anything that could happen, as though they don’t believe in a sovereign God. The Bible says, “A man can receive nothing, except it have been given him from heaven” (Joh.3:27). God, Who is Sovereign, will make sure that He blesses you, if you go by faith in Him. Believe me, the time is coming when everybody is going to have to go by faith in God because He’s going to take away all the things that people have insured and insulated themselves with from the things that might happen in the world. But God is God. He never goes to sleep. He’s never fallen off the throne. He’s there always. He is going to make sure that His Word comes true. And we can be just like little children. We can cast ourselves on His mercy. Children never even think about where the next meal is going to come from. Little children don’t worry about those things; they just know that it’s Momma and Daddy’s responsibility; they’ll take care of that. And you know, that’s the way God is with us. He wants that kind of relationship with us. God’s not happy with anything less. (Heb.10:38) My righteous one shall live from faith:  And if he shrink back, my soul hath no pleasure in him.  God doesn’t have pleasure in self-sufficient people. He has pleasure in people who walk by faith, talk by faith, live by faith. And it is a pleasure to live by faith. I don’t yet know all of what living by faith is; God’s only shown me the little parts that He’s shown me, but I would love to live by faith in every direction. Some directions I’ve never even thought about and other people will come and say, “Oh, did you try this?” For example, a sister in the Lord once told me that she and some other people just picked up some instruments and started playing them by faith and pretty soon they got better and better at it. They were surprised at how God blessed them. Well, that led us to pray over our children, Nathan and Jennifer, by faith, and God answered that prayer. I tell you, it was just the very next week after that when they started playing music, picking it up quite naturally, by ear. So there isn’t anything God won’t do for those who put their trust in Him. There is nothing that God can’t do and won’t do for those who put their trust in Him. I believe this is the reason that He said He revealed these things unto babes. God reveals the authority of God and God reveals the power of His name to people who will become children, people who will cast care to the wind and put themselves in His Hands, just trusting in Him, believing in Him. (Eph.3:20) God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. God loves it when we are weak but we don’t see it that way. We like to be strong and we do our best to make sure that we’re strong in every situation that we can get in. As I said, we do our best to insulate ourselves from any possible mishap, but that doesn’t please God. It doesn’t please God that we put our trust in the gods of this world, the saviors of this world.  The apostle Paul learned that lesson. He was caught up to paradise and he said, “On behalf of such a one (the man who was caught up to paradise) will I glory: but on mine own behalf I will not glory, save in my weaknesses” (2Co.12:5). The King James Version translates that word “weaknesses” there as “infirmities” because they had the idea that the apostle Paul had some kind of sickness or infirmities, but a closer look at this reveals that’s not the case at all. Those translators believed the apostle Paul had an eye disease or something like that and that God said, “my grace is sufficient for thee” (2Co.12:9), meaning, “You just keep that because you need that; you need that to be an overcomer; you need that to humble you.” But obviously that would be contrary to a lot of rest of the Word. The Bible says, “by whose stripes ye were healed” (1Pe.2:24). It doesn’t say that we’re healed only when we really need it and it doesn’t say that we’re healed only sometimes. You were healed all the time. Let’s read on. (2Co.12:6) For if I should desire to glory, I shall not be foolish; for I shall speak the truth: but I forebear, lest any man should account of me above that which he seeth me [to be,] or heareth from me. (7) And by reason of the exceeding greatness of the revelations, that I should not be exalted overmuch, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, that I should not be exalted overmuch. So we see that he said what the “thorn in the flesh” was. He said it was a messenger of Satan, an angelos. The word there is angelos, which is translated 181 times in the New Testament as “angel” and the other few times as “messenger,” but it means the same thing. It’s the same Greek word, angelos. Here was an angel of Satan that was sent to buffet Paul so that he wouldn’t be proud.  Paul didn’t say it was a sickness that was sent to buffet him. And, by the way, to “buffet” is not just one blow, like a sickness. It’s to beat over and over and over. It’s many blows. That’s what buffet means. But a thorn in the flesh, in this case, was an angel of Satan that was sent to buffet Paul. In the Old Testament, for every verse that talks about a thorn in the flesh, never, not once, is it ever a sickness. It was always referring to the enemies of God’s people that came against them and in this case it’s the same thing. An angel of Satan was sent to buffet Paul so he wouldn’t “be exalted overmuch.” (2Co.12:8) Concerning this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. (9) And he hath said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for [my] power is made perfect in weakness. The King James here has that this word is “weakness,” but this word and the word up in verse five are the same Greek word, so one of them can’t be “infirmity” and the other one “weakness.” They have to both be the same thing and the truth is they are because using the same Greek word in talking about Jesus, the Bible says, “for he was crucified through weakness” (2Co.13:4). Now, nobody would have put “infirmity” there. Jesus wasn’t crucified through infirmity, so they had to put the truth there and the King James did use “weakness” in that case. (4) For he was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth through the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him through the power of God toward you. See, when you are weak in Christ, you’re going to live through the power of God. It’s when you are not able. It’s being weak in ability to save yourself, being weak in ability to deliver yourself, being weak in ability to heal yourself. He says when you’re in that condition, then God’s power is going to be with you.  This is the same thing Paul said back in 2 Corinthians 12:9. I’m pointing out this verse because in the King James they used the word “weakness” here and it could not be possibly put in as “infirmity” because we can’t read anywhere in the Scriptures that Jesus was infirm, nor was He crucified because He was infirm. Now, that’s the same word that’s being used over here and over in 2 Corinthians 12:9. He said, “My grace is sufficient for thee: for [my] power is made perfect in weakness.” You know, if we will be weak as a little child, God’s power will be there. Most often, God’s power is not there because we refuse to be weak. We want to be strong in a circumstance. We see what we think needs to be done and we run to do it, and we are not ceasing from our works. We are not entering into the Sabbath (Hebrews 4:11). We’re not refusing to be strong. If we will refuse to be strong and we will put our trust in God, we will see His power there every time. It reminds me of a vision I had years ago, in which Mary and I were sitting in some lawn chairs in front of our house in Louisiana. While we were sitting there, we saw this power line hanging from pole to pole. The strange thing about it, as we were looking at this and studying this, was that the power line was almost touching the ground in the middle because it was sagging so bad. And while we were watching that, a tornado came over that power line and sucked us up out of our chairs. Then the vision changed and I feel like we were over in Florida and the Lord was showing us something about our ministry over there.  But what He showed me about that always stuck with me. As we were sitting there, ceasing from our works and resting in lawn chairs, watching the power of man come to an end (that’s the power lines), as we watched the power of man come to an end, then the power of God took over. Man’s extremity is God’s opportunity. God’s not ready to move until we do cease from our works because we have faith. Every time you have faith, you can stop, you can cease from your work, you can cease from your struggling, you can cease from trying to save yourself because the Bible says you are saved. It doesn’t say He will save you. If it said that, you’d wonder what method He wanted to use, but since His method is past tense and you believe it, you have to stop, you have to cease. And so God’s power is made perfect in our weakness. Paul said, “most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my weaknesses (not “infirmities” because it’s the exact same Greek word), that the power of Christ may rest upon me” (2Co.12:9). Glory in our weaknesses so that the power of Christ may rest upon us. That’s the way a child is. They have all the power of Daddy because he is the provider, he is the deliverer, he is the savior. He takes care of it all and they don’t think it should be any other way and we should be that way, too. We’ve been trained-up to think otherwise, to be grownups, but you know, we shouldn’t be thinking in any other terms than what a child thinks. This is the way God wants it. Well, I think that we can see by now that the ‘verse,’ “God helps those who help themselves,” is not Godly at all; it’s antichrist. It will never allow you to enter into the power of God. It will never allow the Spirit and the power of Christ to rest upon you.  So Paul says he glories in his weaknesses so that the power of Christ may rest upon him. (2Co.12:10) … I take pleasure in weaknesses…. King James says “infirmities.” Nobody takes pleasure in infirmities. That’s ridiculous. The word here is the same Greek word again. It’s not “infirmity”; it’s “weakness.” Yes, we take pleasure in weaknesses. It’s great to be weak. It’s great to not have the ability to deliver yourself because then you get to see the miracle of God. And he went on to say, in “injuries,” or actually the word there is “insults,” according to the ancient manuscripts and the Received Text and several others; it’s “insults,” not necessarily “injuries.” You don’t take pleasure in injuries, but “in insults, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong” (2Co.12:10). Now, what was this buffeting that this angel sent his way, this angel of Satan? Some people say there are no such things as angels of Satan. You know that the demons are angels. Some people say the demons are not angels, but no, that’s not what the Bible says. The demons are the angels of Satan, so just forget about that theology. Whoever brings that to you, don’t believe it; don’t go down that road because it’s wrong. Michael and his angels fought with Satan and his angels (Revelation 12:7), the Bible says. Demons are all fallen angels. That’s where they came from. They are the fallen angels, the non-elect angels. So what is this buffeting? What are these many different blows that the angel of Satan brought Paul’s way in order to make him weak, in order to bring him into a position of weakness? Well, Paul gives a list of them. (2Co.11:21) I speak by way of disparagement, as though we had been weak. Yet whereinsoever any is bold (I speak in foolishness), I am bold also.  (22) Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they Israelites? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I. (23) Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I more; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths oft. He’s talking about the places where he was weak to save himself. You know, when we get into places where we don’t see any possibility of saving ourselves, that’s wonderful because we get to see the power of God. If we walk by faith in those places, then we get to see the miracles of God. That’s what God wants to teach us. He brings us into those places. Remember, God was the One Who sent this angel of Satan to humble Paul. Why do we need humbling? We need humbling because we’re grownups and we need to become children. We need to be humble. We need to not be self-sufficient; we need to be God-sufficient. We need to be trusting in our Lord because His promises are in there to save us in all these situations. So God brings us into these places and Satan’s angel brings us into these places where we’re weak, where we need the power of God. If we will be weak, we will see the power of God. Many times we want to look for man’s help, man’s way, man’s wisdom. Let’s continue reading Paul’s list. (2Co.11:24) Of the Jews five times received I forty [stripes] save one. (25) Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day have I been in the deep; (26) [in] journeyings often, [in] perils of rivers, [in] perils of robbers, [in] perils from [my] countrymen, [in] perils from the Gentiles, [in] perils in the city, [in] perils in the wilderness, [in] perils in the sea, [in] perils among false brethren;  (27) [in] labor and travail, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness. He was in all these places in order to be weak so that he could see the power of God. God put him in those places, like He brought the Israelites into those places in the wilderness so that they could see the power of God. Being weak is not a time to be anxious or worried; this is a time when you should expect to see the power of God. It’s God’s purpose to bring us to weakness in order for us to see His power. This is His plan. Don’t ever be cast down because of what you see because what you see is these places that make you weak. It’s God’s plan for you when you get into these places that you put your trust in Him and that you see His power. This is the place where God’s power rests upon you. This place of weakness, the place of your own inability to save yourself or deliver yourself, is the place you can look for the promise of God and trust in God. Paul went on, “besides those things that are without, there is that which presseth upon me daily, anxiety for all the churches (2Co.11:28). (29) Who is weak (that’s the word “weak”), and I am not weak? who is caused to stumble, and I burn not? (30) If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things that concern my weakness.” That’s another place that the King James calls it “infirmity.” It’s the same word! In the same text, if a word is translated one way in one part of the text and another way in another part of the text, that is dishonest. That is deceiving. That is wrong. It either has to be one or the other. If you look at this word in other parts of the Bible, the conclusion is that it’s talking about weakness, not infirmity. Weakness. Thank God for the places that He brings us to where we’re weak! That’s the only place we ever see miracles.  Do you realize that? It’s the only place we ever see miracles and yet that is the place we’re most tempted to throw up our hands and be anxious or worried or troubled. That is the place where all miracles are given, right there, in a place of weakness, the place where you’re unable. Now, if you have the mind of a child and you get in that place, you just expect Father to take over from then on. This is something that He normally does. God normally supplies your need, like in the teaching Jesus gave about the birds and the flowers. He said they don’t labor and they don’t toil to clothe and to feed themselves (Matthew 6:26,28). You mean, the Lord is saying you don’t have to work to bring about this clothing and feeding? You don’t have to toil? That’s exactly what He said. Go back and read it. It’s so clear. That’s exactly what He said. He knew that you’d get yourself in a situation and He even ordained these situations to come, where you wouldn’t be able to provide for yourself. And He said, “are not two sparrows sold for a penny? and not one of them shall fall on the ground without your Father (Mat.10:29). (30) But the very hairs on your head are all numbered. (31) Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.” Look, not even a hair falls out of your head, can you imagine, that God doesn’t know it! He knows us so intimately that not one hair can fall out of your head without Him knowing it. I mean, your hairs are always falling out and growing back. How can He number the hairs of your head? That is an intimate God Who can number the hairs of your head. He knows a lot, so how could we possibly get into a situation that He doesn’t know about and hasn’t planned for? He is our Jehovah-jireh, the Lord our Provider. (Php.4:19) And my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.  You can’t get so far out that God can’t reach you. You can’t get in so-impossible a situation that He can’t take care of it. He can pay your taxes out of a fish’s mouth (Matthew 17:27). He can do anything. Think about some of the things that God has done in the Scriptures and He really did do them. He stopped the solar system for a day so Joshua could defeat his enemies. God can do anything. And, you know what? The great thing about it is He’s “the same yesterday, and to-day, [yea] and for ever” (Heb.13:8). He is the same. He will still do anything to meet your needs, if you will be weak and have faith. Be weak and have faith. Now, the time when you ought to have faith is when you’re weak because God doesn’t need to meet your needs when you don’t have needs. You don’t need a miracle until you need a miracle. Don’t think that you can avoid a trial of your faith by receiving the miracle before you need it. No. God tries your faith. The miracle doesn’t come till the miracle’s needed. Trust in Him between here and there because He will be there. He will do what you need. Be confident in Him. Be children in Him. This is what we need to learn and it’s not an easy lesson. It demands the death of self, but religion has trained us up with the mind of the beast because religion has taught that God helps those who help themselves and it trains us to take care of these situations. Religion trains us to trust in the arm of the flesh. They even changed God into a god which He has never been so that they can trust in the arm of the flesh. “Now God does it this way,” they say, as if Jesus doesn’t heal the same way He always healed, by laying hands on the sick or by speaking the word of faith. That’s the same way He’s always healed and He still does it that way but, you see, they’ve changed God so that you can trust in the arm of the flesh, so that you can be strong.  You can run out and get the strength of the world, make your alliances with the world, get your insurance from the world. They’ll change God and go to any extent to let the flesh live. But we have to become as a child, otherwise, Jesus says, you’re not entering into the Kingdom of Heaven (Luke 18:17). To become as a child is entering into the Kingdom of Heaven. The Kingdom of Heaven is where God rules, God reigns, God saves, God delivers. He hasn’t changed. We have attempted to change Him. God put us here in this weak position. He planned for us always to be in a weak position, so that He could be our Savior. (2Co.4:7) But we have this treasure (the treasure Paul is talking about is the light of the knowledge of the glory of God) in earthen vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves. God put this treasure, this knowledge of God, in such a weak vessel so that when anything happened, it would have to bring glory to Him and not to us. He could have put us in a strong vessel. He could have put us in a very knowledgeable, very wise, very strong, very healthy vessel and we wouldn’t have needed His help. He wouldn’t have needed to be God, would He? We would have been our own gods. If we watch all the children’s superhero shows, we’ll notice the thing that’s super about them is they’re their own gods. They do what they want to do. They are able. That’s not what God ever wanted. God didn’t choose us because we are able. He chose us because we’re not able. He wanted to give us freely His ability through grace and that’s unmerited. You can’t earn it, you can’t pay for it. He wanted to give it to us freely. When you get yourself in an impossible situation, think about it. God put you there and He put you there so that you could see how great He is.  So God put this wonderful treasure in an earthen vessel, a very weak vessel. (2Co.4:8) We are pressed on every side, yet not straitened; perplexed, yet not unto despair; (9) pursued, yet not forsaken; smitten down, yet not destroyed; (10) always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus (which is the death of self), so that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body. God wants Jesus to live through us, but we have to be weak for Him to do that. The power of Christ will rest upon those who are weak. We’re powerful only because we have faith in God. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us (Philippians 4:13) but He doesn’t strengthen until you’re weak, you see. We have to cease before He will start. We have to keep the Sabbath and cease from our works and enter into His works through faith. God not only put us in a world that was bigger than us and with an enemy that was a lot bigger than us, He put us in a vessel that was weak to begin with, so that when the salvation came, we would know it was from Him and not from ourselves. We think we’re so great and we’ve been trained to be self-sufficient. Mommas and daddies trainup their children to be self-sufficient. That’s not what God wants. He wants a child. He’s always chosen the weak (1 Corinthians 26-29). Never has He chosen the strong and this gives you hope. This gives you hope that when you get in impossible situations, God planned for you to be there so that He could show you His power, so that He could show you His deliverance and His salvation. This is God’s plan. It’s been His plan from the beginning and He’s done it over and over.  (Deu.7:6) For thou art a holy people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth. And did you know that God still does that? God has still chosen you above all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth. Did you know that? If He chose you, He chose you above someone else, but He didn’t choose you because you’re wiser or smarter or more able or mighty because “not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]” (1Co.1:26). God chose the weak. God called the weak “above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.” (Deu.7:7) The Lord did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all peoples. And it’s still that way, isn’t it? God chose “the fewest of all peoples.” Why did He do that? Certainly, if He was fighting battles with all the Canaanites, He would want the greatest number, wouldn’t He? No, because when the battle was won, He didn’t want anybody to say, “Look what we did!” And when the battle is won in our lives, He doesn’t want anybody to be able to say, “Look what we did!” “Look how powerful we are!” “Look how wise we are!” Or, “Oh, we were smart enough to follow God.” You know, all these things that people could say. No. God said He didn’t choose us because we were the mightiest but because we were the fewest. It’s still that way today. The true Christians are few. Don’t think that the Christians in this country are the many. What do they call them? The “moral majority.” That is just totally ridiculous! The proof of that is to look at the people we have in elected office. If there was a moral majority, believe me, you would always have a government that was moral and good because that’s the way democracy works. There’s no moral majority. Never was.  God chose us because we were the fewest of all peoples. (Deu.7:8) But because the Lord loveth you, and because he would keep the oath which he swear unto your fathers, hath the Lord brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondage, and from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. (17) If thou shalt say in thy heart, These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them? (18) thou shalt not be afraid of them: thou shalt well remember what the Lord thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt; (19) the great trials which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, whereby the Lord thy God brought thee out: so shall the Lord thy God do unto all the peoples of whom thou art afraid. And so shall the Lord thy God do to all of the curse that you come against, and to all of the flesh that you have to conquer, and to all the principalities and powers that you have to conquer. They are made strong and you are made weak for a purpose, so that you can see the power of God move against them. We never need to count on our own strength. David did that and brought a curse on Israel (2 Samuel 24; 1 Chronicles 21). He counted the people of Israel and brought a curse on them because God sent a pestilence that killed 70,000 men, just so David couldn’t count on his own strength (2 Samuel 24:15; 1 Chronicles 21:14). When you count on your strength, look out because you have trouble coming. God’s going to humble you. God’s in the humbling process with us. He wants to deliver us from trusting in the arm of the flesh.  You know, in almost every battle that Israel won, they were outnumbered. Isn’t it amazing that God demanded that they be outnumbered before He would give them the victory? For example, in Judges we’re told that the Israelites had an army coming against them that the Bible says were as the sands of the sea for multitude (Judges 7:12). The Midianites, the Amalekites and the children of the east were coming against them and all the men of Israel who could be gathered together weren’t enough to do the job and they knew it. At first they were counting on their own ability and the numbers that they had but they were ridiculously outnumbered. (Jdg.7:2) And the Lord said unto Gideon, The people that are with thee are too many for me to give the Midianites into their hand, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me. Now therefore proclaim in the ears of the people, saying, Whosoever is fearful and trembling, let him return and depart from mount Gilead. And there returned of the people twenty and two thousand; and there remained ten thousand. Well, that was just the beginning of God whittling down the people and those people who are fearful will not be the ones who have the victory over the enemy. Being weak is one thing but being fearful is quite another. Being fearful is not trusting in the power that God has given us to come against our enemy. Being fearful is judging by your own ability. It’s looking at your own ability or your own inability, but that’s where God is putting us on purpose. This is God’s plan to put us in a position of weakness, to make our enemy look big. He sent the Israelites into a promised land where the enemies were giants and they were vastly outnumbered. It was God’s plan for it to look like an unfair contest. In every trial that we go into, it’s going to look that way so that when we get the victory, we know it’s God’s power, not our own.  If you’re thinking, “Yeah, but God chose Gideon, a great man of valor, to bring this about.” Well, let’s go back and look at Gideon. (Jdg.6:12) The angel of the Lord appeared unto him, and said unto him, The Lord is with thee, thou mighty man of valor. The Lord tells you the same thing. He’s with you. His authority is behind you whenever you walk for Him. Whatever we do, we do in the Name as representing Him. His power and His authority are behind us when we act on the Word. (Jdg.6:13) And Gideon said unto him, Oh, my lord, if the Lord is with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where are all his wondrous works which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the Lord bring us up from Egypt? but now the Lord hath cast us off, and delivered us into the hand of Midian. Have you ever thought, “Where are the mighty works of God?” Well, I’ll tell you where they are. They’re waiting on people to be weak. If people won’t be weak, they won’t see them. As long as we’re strong to save ourselves, we don’t need God. There’s no faith involved in that. So now Israel had just gotten itself into a position of weakness and do you know what? God chose just as weak a man to lead them. (Jdg.6:14) The Lord looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and save Israel from the hand of Midian: have not I sent thee? “This thy might”? What is the Lord talking about? He’s talking about because God sent Gideon. This kind of reminds you of Peter. “Lord, you just bid me to come to You on the water.” And when the Being Weak Gives All Glory to God 31 Lord said, “Come,” Peter stepped out of the boat. The Lord said he could do it and just on the word of the Lord, Peter did it (Matthew 14:28,29). He stepped out of the boat by faith. Nobody else stepped out of the boat. He did. You know, if the Lord told you in the Word, that’s all you need. “In this thy might.”  God’s always going to be behind His Word. If you step out on His Word, exercising faith in His Word, then His might is going to be there. You’re always going to be weak but His might is going to be there. “Have not I sent thee?” It’s the same thing the Lord did to Moses, when he protested, “O Lord, I’m not an eloquent speaker” (Exodus 4:10) and God answered him with, “Who hath made man’s mouth?” (Exodus 4:11) God chose Moses not because he was great; God chose him because he was weak. (Jdg.6:15) And he said unto him, Oh, Lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my family is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father’s house. Gideon wasn’t listening, was he? “My family is the poorest in Manassah, and I am the least of my father’s house.” There it is. God chose the weakest and the least. Don’t expect God to send superman. That’s not what He’s looking for. This will not accomplish the purpose that He has. God is going to send someone who’s weak, someone who is like a child. That qualifies some of us. You know, we can be as a child. We are unable in so many things. Sometimes we’re forced into a position of being unable. But I tell you that what Jesus wants for us is not that we be forced into a position of weakness, but that we walk in that position of our own free will, refusing to be strong. This is the great thing. If we will learn to refuse to be strong, we will see the miracles of God now. Exercise Faith for a miracle from God so everyone knows He is the Saviour.     Select LanguageAfrikaansAlbanianAmharicArabicArmenianAzerbaijaniBasqueBelarusianBengaliBosnianBulgarianCatalanCebuanoChichewaChinese (Simplified)Chinese (Traditional)CorsicanCroatianCzechDanishDutchEsperantoEstonianFilipinoFinnishFrenchFrisianGalicianGeorgianGermanGreekGujaratiHaitian CreoleHausaHawaiianHebrewHindiHmongHungarianIcelandicIgboIndonesianIrishItalianJapaneseJavaneseKannadaKazakhKhmerKinyarwandaKoreanKurdish (Kurmanji)KyrgyzLaoLatinLatvianLithuanianLuxembourgishMacedonianMalagasyMalayMalayalamMalteseMaoriMarathiMongolianMyanmar (Burmese)NepaliNorwegianOdia (Oriya)PashtoPersianPolishPortuguesePunjabiRomanianRussianSamoanScots GaelicSerbianSesothoShonaSindhiSinhalaSlovakSlovenianSomaliSpanishSundaneseSwahiliSwedishTajikTamilTatarTeluguThaiTurkishTurkmenUkrainianUrduUyghurUzbekVietnameseWelshXhosaYiddishYorubaZulu Powered by Translate Printer-friendly version

Often, we feel small and insignificant. We have just a little money with big bills to pay. We have just a little strength and so much to do. We have just a little faith with which to serve a great big God… The Bible is full of examples of people who had only a little. Little David versus the giant Goliath, the widow lady with only a little flour and oil and three mouths to feed, five little loaves and two fish with thousands needing to eat. Those accounts are in the Bible so that we can understand God still, our day, can do much when we have only a little! He prefers it that way because He gets all the credit for the gain! Bring the little you have to God today, yield it to Him and see what a mighty God He is!

David Stern is a sales coach affectionately known as Coach Stern. He has a very interesting story and background. He used to be timid and fearful and at the age of 31 said no more and began a radical transformation. In this episode, Berry unpacks some great sales tips from David and we also get to listen to how he became the man that he is.

乔治卡林表演风格转变的缘由 此内容为George Carlin On Comedy音频访问的the big change部分公号：牙签的签言万语由Comedy翻译小组组织翻译。演播：张波主持人：你有一个成名段子叫做《不能在电视上说的七个词》，能否给我们描述下，这个段子是怎样一步一步写成的？乔治卡林：当时我处于一个过渡阶段。拉斯维加斯事件，我当时因为在表演时说了“shit”和“ass”而被取消演出合约，只是那两年间发生的一系列事件中的一个。正如我跟你说过的，那时候我也在夜总会，拉斯维加斯，以及主流的电视节目等地方表演。当时我精准地将自己定位在自己想要的样子上——与我本身的风格有仅有一点点地违背。别忘了我本身的风格是懒散的、反权威的，以及充满挑衅的。然后我开始彻底违背自己的风格，我开始学着表现得“可爱”和“聪明”。不说太多自己的观点，只表演观众想看的。我学会了这种风格，它让我在夜总会和电视上收获了美妙的效果。但是表演的部分还是无法成为我习惯的样子，我看不到下一步应该怎么走。所以我又开始变得不满意起来。我意识到，我当时只是利用自己假装很主流的人物形象来得到做电影的机会，一心想着做电影，做电影，让我做电影，跟那些让我做电影的人玩。但是做了电影，发现自己还是不满足，我不能只做这个。我没有那么喜欢电影。我意识到自己是个喜剧演员。做喜剧演员才是你的个人兴趣，你擅长做喜剧，你再看看你现在做的。就这样，从69到71年我又开始转型。到71年，这次转型就完成了。在那个阶段，我开始试验用”ass”这个词，我一生中大部分时间都是在抽大麻，这与我反社会的态度及其符合。使用“ass”的效果是，跟很多同样试验过这个词的人一样，它将我推过了那条边界，推向了另一个阶段。这一跨越是否发生其实是个必然，这取决于环境。通过“ass”，我前往了下一个阶段。然后我发现，其实我是在不喜欢的人身上浪费时间。我是在娱乐我的敌人。他们是保守的中产阶级观众，而我也在为他们做着保守的表演。但我的内心是与他们不同的，我要把我的内心挖掘出来。所以我就这样走过了这一过渡阶段。 并且，这个转变直接呈现在了公众面前，我依然持续做电视秀，上Steve Allen，Della Reese 和 Virgina Graham 的节目。我继续我的表演，我的胡子变多了，头发变长了，我的段子也开始变得更加大胆了。到了这个时候，我开始觉得，很好，这正是我想要的。从那时起，我开始去大学校园演出。拉斯维加斯撵走了我，这里那里都不让我去。他们不需要我，我也不需要他们。我要到大学里去，那才是我的观众。这次转型完成后，我拿到了跟 Little David 公司的合同。我决定第一步要做的是，展现这种转型，因此我把这个专辑叫做 FM&AM, 意思是我从FM 喜剧演员转变为AM喜剧演员，我的段子越来越大胆，越来越接近大众。FM这一面，其中一个段子叫做 “shoot”,"shoot"是”shit“这个词的委婉表达方式，” shoot“是有两个“o”的“shit”，或者说“shoot”是带着一副眼镜的“shit”。我整个段子都在说“shit”这个词其实是无害的，以及我们都是怎样用这个词的。主要都是隐喻的手法，把那个“shit”搞出去，你觉得那个“shit”是用来干嘛的，你这给我的都是什么“shit”。这样继续向前发展，就有了《七个词》。这个作品，我想做的就是把这些词罗列出来，让观众体会我对这些词语的感受：它们仅仅是词语，只有当人们赋予它们污秽的意味时，才变得可怕，是人赋予了它们破坏力。如果说这个词的人是出于邪恶的动机，那么这个词的确就变成了邪恶的帮凶。但它们本身只是印在书本上的词汇，它们本身是无害的。这也是为什么我想将它们摆出来并且让他们不再是敏感词。主持人:那刚刚为我打开了一个全新的世界。这个若是你写那些段子的动机，你的观点似乎与这一整代人不谋而合，那些年轻人对这些词有着跟你一样的看法和感受。因为他们每天都在用这些词，并不觉得它们是某种禁忌，或者看上去从未觉得这些词有什么不妥当我很好奇。这真是太吸引人了…乔治卡林:说到这些词，有两件事儿。有时候我为了让我的观点更好地被持有不同意见的人接受，我会说，在我成长的过程中，我被教育要尊重三类人：警察、军人和职业运动员。你也知道这三类人平时是怎么说话的，所以这些词本身能有什么错呢？另外一件事儿，是我教育我的女儿，我告诉她即使其他人赋予这些词语以伤害力，你也必须尊重他们这样做的理由。假如有人不喜欢这些词语，你就没有在人家面前讲这些词的权利。这些词语可能使你变得不礼貌或是粗鲁。你在如何使用它们这个问题上必须谨慎，但是词语本身不会伤害到你。

For years I held close to "little David." That childhood part of me. Well into my twenties and thirties I could still hear his younger voice talking to me, guiding me and advising me. Then one day he was gone.

Come along to England, where we encounter a hairy situation.

You made it. All the way. October is here, and we're here with a FULL MONTH of the spookiest content imaginable.  We decided to kick it off with a bunch of games, questions, and thoughts about Horror Movies! Which, honestly, is a great idea. Thanks for saying so. Topics include: figuring out which movie scared Little David real bad, I'm Going Bludge, "helping," James Franco in 37 Hours, which of us are scared of The Ghost Whisperer, Richard Linklater, basements, white eyes, equations, purple hair, and smoochin' ghosts. *** Come find us AT THESE LINKS. iTunes Facebook Twitter Instagram YOUTUBE. And search for us on SPOTIFY if you're more into jump scares than psychological horror.

Today is September 27th, 2017 and our guests this week are: Mike Shuster from the great war project blog,    Mayor Ann Roth from the 100 Cities / 100 Memorials project in Swanton, Ohio And Christy Leskovar, author of One Night in a Bad Inn and Finding the Bad Inn WW1 Centennial News is brought to you by the U.S. World War I Centennial Commission and the Pritzker Military Museum and Library. I’m Theo Mayer - the Chief Technologist for the Commission and your host. Welcome to the show. World War One THEN 100 Year Ago This Week [MUSIC TRANSITION] We’ve gone back in time 100 years to explore the war that changed the world! It’s the last week of September 1917, let’s take a look at what happened this month: The pages of the Official Bulletin are overflowing with articles about food, the food administration, and their impact on the war effort, with articles about food appearing every day this month. Here are a few of note: [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 12th, 1917 Headline: Government not to seize food supplies held in homes There is no truth in a widely circulated statement that the Government expects to take food supplies from any family. Both the Food Administration and the Department of Agriculture join in a statement to counteract, what seems to be deliberate propaganda to the effect that the Government intends to take from every family all canned goods put up, in excess of 100 quarts. TM - Apparently this was only one of many variations of rumors about the government seizing food   [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 15th, 1917 Headline: Government licenses for manufacturers, refiners and importers of sugar, sirups, and molasses required From time to time, whenever the President shall find it essential to license the importation, manufacture, storage, mining or distribution of any necessaries… The president is authorized to issue such licenses and to prescribe regulations of the issuance of licenses. [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 17th, 1917 Headline: Slogan “food will win war--don’t waste it” emblazoned on huge signs throughout country Through the cooperation of advertising companies, the Treasury Department, municipal authorities and electric-light companies, the US Food Administration is, without cost, putting on a national outdoor advertising campaign that is probably the biggest thing of the sort ever undertaken. The slogan “Food will win the war -- don't waste it” is being emblazoned in every large city in the country on immense signs on public buildings. These signs are uniform in general design, in paint for daytime display and illuminated by electric light for night.   [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 20th, 1917 Headline: American people can have full diet and still supply pressing needs of allies The supplies in the world’s larder for the next twelve months are now known. They are too short to support our allies unless every man, woman and child enters National service by conserving food and supporting the Food Administration [SOUND EFFECT] Dateline: September 20th, 1917 Headline: Big european demand upon america for meat will continue after war The immediate problem is to furnish increased meat supplies to the allies to maintain them during the war… the impact of european demand upon our animal products will be maintained for a long period of years after peace. We must undertake to meet the demand not only during the war, so as to enable our allies to continue to fight, but we must be prepared to meet the demand after the war. TM: So food is a big topic of national discussion during the month of September 100 years ago this week. Also in the news,  casualty reports start to trickle into the Bulletin this month. Only a few thousand American soldiers have made it to Europe, and their primary tasks is training, preparing, training and preparing. Despite their small numbers and their relative distance from the front, war is war and casualties start to become an ever more frequent occurrence.   Soldiers get killed during a german air raid on a hospital, others in an air raid on an encampment; two aviators die in a mid-air collision during training while a third dies of an undisclosed accident; others die from meningitis or heart disease. Though tragic, these deaths are just a glimpse of what’s to come: life in the trenches, artillery fire, bombings, gas and the 1918 flu epidemic are challenges yet to come. - Go to our website to catch up on all the stories from 100 years ago this month. You can read the full daily issues of the Official Bulletin the government’s war gazette published at the order of President Wilson as the government’s voice of the war - you will find daily issues that we re-publish on the centennial anniversary of their original publish date at ww1cc.org/bulletin. [SOUND EFFECT] Great War Project Outside of the Official Bulletin, which is essentially the government’s propaganda machine  - other reports appear of a continuing and steady rise of anti-war sentiment. We are joined by Mike shuster, former NPR correspondent and curator for the Great War Project blog, to tell us more about the on-going and perhaps ever more active anti-war movement in the US. Welcome, Mike! [MIKE SHUSTER] Thank you Mike. That was Mike Shuster from the Great War Project blog with a look at the anti-war sentiment of some Americans 100 years ago this month.

Reflecting this, On September 24th 1917, composer Maceo Pinkard publishes “Those Draftin’ Blues”, a sorrowful tune with a message that resonates with many across the country .

Our pick of the week is from Newport, Rhode Island.  Here is the story… In 1917, when America declared war on Germany, Bernardo Cardines (cardeens) was a tailor living peacefully in Newport, RI. Cardines was an immigrant from Venafro in Italy, who emigrated alone to America in 1909 at the tender age of only fourteen. Cardines, like many American immigrants, registered for the draft and went on to serve with the 78th Division in the American Expeditionary Forces. He fought at St. Mihiel and was killed in action during a raid on German positions on September of 1918. On month, on Friday, September 29, the Rhode Island World War One Centennial Commission will rededicate the Bernardo Cardines Memorial Baseball Field. The field is one of the oldest baseball fields in the U.S. and was originally dedicated in September of 1936, in memory of Private Cardines. The re-dedication is free to the public and will include a unique commemorative event: namely - an Army-Navy baseball game that will be played by students from the U.S. Naval War College, and they are going to play the game, dressed in period baseball uniforms. That sounds like great fun!

The two men often wrote to one another about various naval aspects of the ongoing war, and in this letter --- on this day --- he wrote: My dear sir --- I hear that a new order of Knighthood is on the tapis–O.M.G. (Oh! My God!)–Shower it on the Admiralty!!” We are not really sure what he was prattling about - but on that day he did coin the term. And while you may gave always believed that OMG was a texting term from a california 18 year old mall rat -  The first ever documented use of term is between two english gentlemen during world war I - OMG-- That is sooo cray cray - and it’s also this week’s word for Speaking World War One!

On Wednesday September 27th, the US World War One Centennial Commission and the Pritzker Military Museum & Library announced the First 50 official “WWI Centennial Memorials” That is only half of them - because every since the April 6th centennial of the the US declaration of war, the awareness, interest and focus on local WWI memorials around the country has really blossomed. So instead of just extending the submission period to give some of these new projects a chance to participate -, the 100 Cities / 100 Memorials program decided name the first 50 awardees now, and then open the grant award competition for a second round staring NOW. Everyone who was part of the first round but didn’t get an award -- automatically goes into round 2 - which is already underway and runs till January 15th, next year in 2018.

The Navy has announced plans to survey the wreck of the WWI U.S. Navy cruiser San Diego, on which six American Sailors lost their lives, when she sank as a result of enemy action off the coast of New York on July 19, 1918. The survey's objective is to assess the condition of the wreck site and determine if the ship --- the only major warship lost by the United States, was sunk as a result of a German submarine-launched torpedo or a mine. Ultimately, that data gathered will help inform the management of the sunken craft, which lies only a few miles south of Long Island. The announcement comes just weeks after the 99th anniversary of the sinking, and the survey, which was planned for Sept. 11-15, is timed to allow researchers to conduct a thorough examination of the site and prepare, then release, their findings around the date of the 100th anniversary. Underwater archaeology is always so cool!!

You’ll find all this in his poem "O, Little David, Play on Your Harp": the Armenian Genocide, Russian pogroms, the Belgian atrocities, the deadly prejudice against African Americans. This week, WWI poetry-specialist, Connie Ruzich, returns to the WWrite blog to discuss Cotter, a forerunner of the African American cultural renaissance of the 1920s.
