This site is made in honor of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who gave His life for me and whose blood has covered over my transgressions and thus reconciled me with the Father to whom forever be the glory!

This site contains pictures, videos, commentary, links, posts, writings,etc. meant to in one way or another, directly or indirectly lift up the Name, the ONLY name, under heaven, given to men, by which we must be saved, Jesus Christ.

The postings on this site are meant to provide the believer with uplifting testimony from the Spirit. If you are a believer and feel there is anything which may be perceived as detrimental to the cause and/or advancement of the Gospel, please let me know.

My personal writings are meant to inspire, instruct, and instill a grateful spirit, for I believe it is only right to give thanks to the One responsible for all things and to stay in constant contact with Him.

In addition, this site will in many ways help us to stay awake, as we await THE DAY! It is my firm belief that it is our generation that will come to see the events foretold and pre-ordained before the foundation of the earth spoken of through the prophets and to John, the beloved apostle who "testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ" and whose unveiling declares that "Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."

Like always, LET US REJOICE IN THE LORD, as we "await in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed."

AMEN.

Current Events-Damascus

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/09/08/some-see-biblical-visions-of-doom-in-syria-trouble/2780827/

Some are pointing to Old Testament passages that predict the destruction of Damascus and a civil war in Egypt.

 Isaiah 17:1

[ A Prophecy Against Damascus ] A prophecy against Damascus: “See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins.
 
  1. Jeremiah 49:23
    [ A Message About Damascus ] Concerning Damascus: “Hamath and Arpad are dismayed, for they have heard bad news. They are disheartened, troubled like the restless sea.
    Jeremiah 49:22-24 (in Context) Jeremiah 49 (Whole Chapter) Other Translations
  2. Jeremiah 49:24
    Damascus has become feeble, she has turned to flee and panic has gripped her; anguish and pain have seized her, pain like that of a woman in labor.
    Jeremiah 49:23-25 (in Context) Jeremiah 49 (Whole Chapter) Other Translations
  3. Jeremiah 49:27
    “I will set fire to the walls of Damascus; it will consume the fortresses of Ben-Hadad.”
     
    1. Amos 1:3
      [ Judgment on Israel’s Neighbors ] This is what the Lord says: “For three sins of Damascus, even for four, I will not relent. Because she threshed Gilead with sledges having iron teeth,
      Amos 1:2-4 (in Context) Amos 1 (Whole Chapter) Other Translations
    2. Amos 1:5
      I will break down the gate of Damascus; I will destroy the king who is in the Valley of Aven and the one who holds the scepter in Beth Eden. The people of Aram will go into exile to Kir,” says the Lord
       
      Zechariah 9:1
      [ Judgment on Israel’s Enemies ] A prophecy: The word of the Lord is against the land of Hadrak and will come to rest on Damascus— for the eyes of all people and all the tribes of Israel are on the Lord—
       
      Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos and Zechariah had words against Damascus. It would be interesting to see if all four were living at the same time...
