Good Morning! ☀️ ☕️

For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Romans 1:20 ESV

God's existence and nature are revealed through his Creation and can only be denied through deliberate rejection and indoctrination.

So many are susceptible to deception right now and that’s why they can hear scripture about one thing and believe it means the exact opposite. The elect are those who have the testimony of Yeshua/Jesus as their Messiah and are actively pursing walking out all of His instructions that are possible to be walked out today. Even though we look forward to Yeshua’s return, the horror and heartbreak of this world still affects us; but we can overcome them before they have the opportunity to deceive us.

ROSH CHODESH 8

Genesis 12:3, “I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you; and all the families of the earth will be blessed through you.” This statement that our Creator makes to Abraham is a tremendous promise of blessing and it comes with a dire warning. The warning is not for Abraham but for those who speak against Abraham. No one who speaks against Abraham will be receive the blessings from our Creator, instead they will receive His cursing.

Lily Portion for Today:

Ladies, teach your families and children to live for today but to hold their hands open for tomorrow. Teach them to anticipate the future, and it will change with joy. There is a seed of Elohiym's Love in every event, every circumstance, every unpleasant situation in which they may find themselves. Be blessed.

4 Horsemen - Rev 6

So, I was brought up (rather "scared up" ) in the church about the 4 Horsemen and the 7-year Tribulation. The movie "A Thief in the Night" was burned into my memory as a teenager.

I now understand that the tribulation only starts at the halfway mark, so after the first 3.5 years. So the Tribulation is only 3.5 years and then that gets shortened or no flesh would survive...

Reading Rev 6:8 with more attention yesterday, it dawned on me that only a 1/4 of the world will suffer at that point. It reads:

"They (the 4 horsemen) were given authority and power over a fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword and with famine and with plague (pestilence, disease) and by the wild beasts of the earth."

Yes, persecution will take place across the world as per Matt 24, but in some regions more than others as each of the 7 churches are given different instructions to prepare themselves spiritually for what lies ahead.

As example, Ukraine as well as Israel are currently in wars and there is a lot of suffering there, but here in the UK the consequences are higher food and gas prices. Sitting here in my living room this morning, my life isn't being threatened and I don't feel famine. Yet that is what some people in Ukraine and Israel might be experiencing.

So, my thinking is that the impact of the 4 Horsemen are felt worldwide, but the direct suffering is localized. From the 6th seal onwards, it is a worldwide chastisement though...

Am I missing something in my thinking?
