October 29, 2021 at 9:19 amRemembering to uphold our children, my own grandson, and many other Christians that will be “trick or treating” and/or celebrating this weekend. I claim 2 Thessalonians 3:3 “But the Lord is faithful. He will establish you and guard you against the evil one.” Praising God for establishing, strengthening, protecting, our children.

October 29, 2021 at 4:42 pmWhy do Christians celebrate all hollows eve? Have they not checked out it’s ancient origins?
Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of “Samhain”. The Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that ghosts of the dead returned to earth.
(Deut. 18:10-13)
“When you come into the land that the LORD your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations. There shall not be found among you anyone who burns his son or his daughter as an offering. Anyone who among you practices divination or tells fortunes or interprets omens, or a sorcerer or a charmer or a medium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead, for whoever dose these things is an abomination the the LORD. And because of these abominations the LORD your God is driving them out before you. You shall be blameless before the LORD.”When celebrating Halloween may seem incent enough. The devil painting the picture of it being this way in many peoples thinking. In reality, those who do celebrate open themselves up to the realm of the spirit world, and to Satan and his demons. The enemy uses this night once a year, to instill fear into our little ones. And we like dumb sheep, go right along with his descriptive plan. This is not good. We should be keeping our children at home safe from all the possible dangers that are out there, especially these days. And instead they would benefit more if we kept them home and read to them out of the Bible. As Christians we should be celebrating our freedom from the kingdom of darkness instead (Col. 1:13). We should shun the works of evil, and embrace the new life that God has so graciously bestowed upon us through JESUS CHRIST our LORD. It’s time that we as Christians, woke up and smelled the coffee on this one!
Just my two cents worth. love you all. 💓

Christmas has nothing to do with Jesus, nor does Easter.
Please, come out of her so as to avoid her judgments.EyesTowardTheLordPrayers: 390Requests: 6

October 29, 2021 at 7:02 pmMy intention is to say “her” as God intended to mean when He said “her” and it was subsequently written. My current interpretation, and understanding, of that intention is to define “her” as Babylon. (Jeremiah 51:45, Revelation 18:4) By extension, my interpretation and understanding would include those who partake in “her” practices, customs, beliefs, celebrations, moral code, and generally “her” way of life and systems of society which is in stark contrast to God’s desire for His people’s ‘way of life.’ I also believe this will ultimately culminate in those who reject “her” way of life in favor of death over accepting the mark of the beast to continue a ‘way of life’ within that system.
I think one could also reasonably say “her” when referring to the great whore / prostitute. (Revelation 17) My current interpretation, and understanding, of “her” in this characterization would be the ‘universal’ or ‘embracing the whole universe’ church that professes their leader to be god (just can’t make it a big g here) on earth.

October 29, 2021 at 7:13 pmOk, I see that the grammar usage of the pronoun “her” could mean two things: her judgements as in she judges which I see that now that you didn’t mean that, but rather to avoid the judgments placed upon her. I’m tracking now with what you meant: His judgments that He places on her. I’m with you now. Thank you for taking the time to respond. Blessings!! ❤️

October 29, 2021 at 8:35 pmAmen, Dear Lord may the world open their eyes to the deception of this time of year. Your word tells us that we are not to be apart of anything that doesn’t glorify you Lord. Please Lord keep our minds and hearts pure and not conform to the world around us In the loving name of our Lord Jesus Christ we pray
