SUBJECT: A DIVIDED HOUSE CANNOT STAND

"A house divided against itself cannot stand." I believe this government cannot endure, permanently half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved—I do not expect the house to fall—but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing, or all the other.

President ABRAHAM LINCOLN (Re: Lincoln's House Divided Speech - Wikipedia)

"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm".

The HOLY BIBLE (The Mighty WORD of GOD - Ephesians 6:12-13)

There is a raging war, both in the natural and supernatural realm today! Many of God's Servants are standing on the battlefield, but we are not standing alone. As we pray and intercede for our Brothers and Sisters In Christ, heaven is dispatching Warrior Angels on assignment. The Holy Spirit has given authentic believers and followers of Christ discernment; our eyes and ears are open to the things that are happening here in America, as well as the nations of the world. Our spiritual senses are on "high alert" and many voices are vying for our attention. He is teaching on how to discern the voice of our Father in heaven because the world is only going to get more intensified in this final hour.

There is a desperation in our political leaders to remove the "bandages" in past attempts of covering up the reality of damaging symptoms in America's declining health; instead of allowing God (The Great Physician) to do surgery on a nation's " heart that has turned from Him". The time has come for America to recognize that He is not only a "God of Blessings", but He is a "Just and Faithful God who will judge-- first His Household of Faith and then the wicked".

Many of us are experiencing an increase in intimacy, discernment, compassion, boldness, courage and wisdom as we draw closer to Abba Daddy. The more we enter the secret place in prayer and fellowship with God, the more we are able to see through His eyes; from His perspective, perception and paradigm. I believe His heart is breaking as the people continue to reject and discard "the Truth that sets the captives free" (John 8:32).

There is great fear, anxiety, anger and ill-repute in our nation right now. America is divided as one side has declared a glorious "victory" and many are recognizing a "King Cyrus" that God has ordained in His Window of God's Mercy for America; while others have taken a hard stance in liberalism and they are displaying the very characteristics of that in which they so adamantly insist they are against.

Jesus told His disciples, "And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
All these are the beginning of sorrows". (Matthew 24:6-8)

Matthew 24:36-39 "No One Knows the Day or Hour
36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven,[a] but My Father only. But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

1 Peter 5:7-9 "...casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because[a] your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world".

The devil enjoys it when Christians are luke-warm and busy basking in a "spiritual euphoria"...going about their lives as normal. But truth be told, THE WAR CONTINUES TO RAGE, HOWEVER, THE BLOODLINE OF CHRIST HAS BEEN DRAWN IN THE SANDS OF TIME, AND WE ARE VICTORS IN JESUS CHRIST!

It could be maddening for the Saints if we don't keep our eyes on Jesus! Only He can walk upon the raging sea, and the question I pose to you is this: Will you and I be like Peter and step out of the seemingly sinking boat and put our trust in the ONLY one who can reach down and pull us out as we sink in our humanity (and limitations)? SELAH!

THINGS THAT GLITTER ARE NOT NECESSARILY GOLD! 
As America (and the entire world) is experiencing the revelatory events in this final hour, many will assume or speculate one thing, while things are very different behind the scenes. Regardless of what occurs on the national and international scene, we must always remember that El EYON (Almighty God) is in control. His hand is in every orchestrated Event, Appointment, and Ordination in regards to rulers, nations and peoples.

Romans 13:12 "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God".

YES, THERE IS A REALITY OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE AS THE ENEMY'S GOAL IS:

1). To DISCOURAGE the Saints of God (KILL)
2). To DISARM the Saints of God (STEAL)
3). To DESTROY the Saints of God (DESTROY)

Let's find great encouragement in The Promises of God and in His Faithfulness to complete what He has begun in us (Phil 1:6).

Isaiah 41:9-11 "(9) You whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, And called from its remotest parts And said to you, 'You are My servant, I have chosen you and not rejected you. (10) Do not FEAR, for I am with you; Do not ANXIOUSLY look about you, for I am your God. I will STRENGTHEN you, surely I will help you, Surely I will UPHOLD you with My righteous right hand.' (11) "Behold, all those who are angered at you will be shamed and dishonored; Those who contend with you will be as nothing and will perish.…" (My Emphasis).

I love and appreciate you my siblings in Christ! We need each other so let's reach out today and encourage and bless others in Jesus' Name!
