His Seal, His Promise

Circular Rainbow

MANIFEST- :  readily perceived by the senses and especially by the sense of sight, easily understood or recognized by the mind :  obvious

On 11-28-06, I saw a similar image to that as above,  in the sky as I was walking. I was reading a paper about what is generally referred to in some circles as manifesting. I see manifesting as God's ability and desire to fill our lives with miracles and super natural and our taking hold of that which is waiting to be received and ever available to us.  Before my eyes beheld the circular rainbow above me, I had spoken the words Faith, Faith, Faith to myself and had steered my mind into total concentration on only my desire for a deeper Faith in God. A berry from the sky (probably dropped by a bird), hit me right in the nose as I finished my declaration of the word Faith. At that moment, I looked up and saw this breathtaking picture in the sky.  I had never seen anything like it before at that time. 

Immediately I envisioned myself climbing through the perfect hole where the Son was shining through.  It became a portal in my mind that was going to transform my then present thoughts of fear, lack, anger and judgement into thoughts of Love, Faith and Grace. The word Grace came to the forefront of my mind once I was inside the Light. When I was finished thanking God for this wondrous and awesome experience, I looked away and saw around every pine tree a sapphire blue light next to each one that looked like a flame burning inside the light. There must have been 7 or 8 of them. 

I knew that something had changed in me. I did not have firm grasp at that point what it all meant and I am still learning till this day.

I saw this again in the sky on 10-25-09. This day was a very difficult day for me in my life. By the time the circular rainbow made it's way back on my path, God had shown me many things. I knew at this point in time that this circular rainbow is what I understand now to be the seal of God. Every King of old would seal any covenant (promise) that was decreed by him. The seal that was chosen to define a particular King, was always something representative of his characteristics. Just as God promised that it would not rain and put His Bow in the sky as a sign of His Promise. I knew on that day that God was reminding me of His promise of His Son to save me and at the time was promising something new to me as well. 

They have done and are still researching the many properties of colors. Each color represents different feelings and characteristics. White encompasses all colors of the rainbow. 

The next time you see a rainbow in the sky, let it ever serve as a reminder of how much He loves you and gave His Son to die for you so that you might have life. If you believe, anything is possible. 


Ephesians 1:13

King James Version (KJV)13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

Revelation 4:3

King James Version (KJV)And he that sat was to look upon like a jasper and a sardine stone: and there was a rainbow round about the throne, in sight like unto an emerald.
**I feel they are speaking of the way that an emerald is cut and shines** 

1 Kings 8:56-58

King James Version (KJV)
56 Blessed be the Lord, that hath given rest unto his people Israel, according to all that he promised: there hath not failed one word of all his good promise, which he promised by the hand of Moses his servant.
57 The Lord our God be with us, as he was with our fathers: let him not leave us, nor forsake us:
58 That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers.

Happy Birthday Jesus !!!

Though we do not know the real date of the birth of Jesus, let us choose today and every day to recognize His birth and what that means for all of us as Christians. ETERNAL LIFE..... 

I bought a new Christmas Tree this year because I had given my tree to my son and his wife. My ornaments were still in my storage unit and I did not feel like going to get them this year. The lights on my new tree are so pretty,  I figured it looked pretty enough without them. Wouldn't you know that even though everyone was unaware of this in my circle of friends and family, that I would receive more ornaments this year than any other year to date. While each one is taking on it's own special story, I will speak of one specific ornament and the story behind it:

When my Grandma passed away on May 25 2012, a message was given to me that when you see a cardinal, it's a reminder to Keep the Faith. I received this picture frame in a white elephant gift exchange. Notice the cardinal on the top. I wanted to put a picture of Grandma in it. I looked in my photo box and there was this one that was taken in May 2012 at the nursing home. Even though the printer I have is low on ink, I was able to print this on regular paper and it could not have come out clearer. I could not get the frame to sit right on the branches, till I found this spot. I had wondered why there are more pinkish lights on this tree rather than red when I had first plugged it in. Even though I love them, I thought it was kind of odd. Now I know why. My Grandma loves the color pink. From the spot that the frame finally settled in, there is pink all around. Now I can see her at Christmas while knowing she is all around us now and always.

Choose Christ Rather Than Traditions And Doctrine

Mark 7

King James Version (KJV)
Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him, Why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?
He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death:
11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free.
12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother;
13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

CORBAN:  a sacrifice or offering to God among the ancient Hebrews
DOCTRINE: a particular principle, position, or policy taught or advocated, as of a religion or government
TRADITIONthe handing down from generation to generation of the same customs, beliefs, etc, esp by word of mouth: 

In modern day times, one may refer to the highlighted words above as, "lip service". 

We have all been there, someone says one thing but their actions prove otherwise. When we are sincere in the words that roll off our lips, our actions will prove those words to be true. It will show what we truly believe. How can we be sincere in our beliefs if they are merely a tradition that was passed down to us? Jesus said if you love God, you would obey God and follow Him. How can you follow Christ, if you don't know what He taught? 

The Pharisees and scribes were a religious, pious group of people that spent the majority of their time following handed down traditions that served man rather than God, in the hopes that the people would follow them rather than Christ/God. Several times in the New Testament Jesus addresses this group and rebukes them for their actions. I do not believe you will find a verse where Jesus is talking about them or to them and is not rebuking their behavior. In a few instances,  He warns us to not be like them. It is so important to know your Bible and God on a personal level. Why trust your salvation in the hands of man?  In the end, it will be you who is responsible for your choices and actions. If you love the Lord, follow the Lord. Not man. If you are a part of any type of religion, I challenge you to search your heart. If the religious sect that you are a part of has any celebrations or traditions, find out where they originated. If it is a sect that professes to be Christian, the Bible is the source that you would need to go to in order to learn the teachings of Christ. I prefer the King James Version (KJV). The American Standard Version (ASV) is also a good translation. 

I was born and raised Catholic. I am no longer a Catholic however since I have been trained up in His Word, I consider myself to be follower of Christ and a part of no religious sect. Because I have experienced Catholicism first hand.  I am able to offer an example of a tradition that they hold to that is not Biblical and that is to BELIEVE in the Catholic Church. It is a part of their doctrine that in full is known as the Cathecism: http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__P26.HTM

750 To believe that the Church is "holy" and "catholic," and that she is "one" and "apostolic" (as the Nicene Creed adds), is inseparable from belief in God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. In the Apostles' Creed we profess "one Holy Church" (Credo . . . Ecclesiam), and not to believe in the Church, so as not to confuse God with his works and to attribute clearly to God's goodness all the gifts he has bestowed on his Church.138

The Catholic church is not mentioned in Scripture, though their doctrine teaches that to believe in their man made institution, is the same as believing in Christ. There are very many instances of this in their doctrine, that glorifies their church and Mary (also not Biblical) rather than keeping the sole focus on Christ. There are very many teachings that are solely tradition and in some cases, against what Christ taught.  I respect all paths and religions,  for I know there are many roads to Christ; however I feel that it is up to us to search Scripture and to be sure of what we believe. Jesus stated in our verse above: 
13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

Be weary of anyone or anything that urges you to believe man made traditions and doctrines for in doing so, you could be believing in something that was never a part of God's plan and it could make His Word of no effect in your life. You will not know if it is man made, until you read the Bible for yourself. I am sure that some of the people that were participating in what was known as Corban in the Bible verse above, were doing so of pure intentions; however they made a mistake and followed man rather than God and this led to going directly against God's law to Honor their Father and Mother. They were giving to the church of the Pharisees what belonged to their Father and Mother and doing so in the name of God because the Pharisees led them to believe it was His Word through their doctrine. They however were the ones that chose to believe it. 

What happened to the Pharisees? I would say they are still here today. They are any religious sect that teaches man made rules and traditions rather than teaching you to have a personal relationship with the Lord and to only receive your revelation from His Holy Spirit who is the ONLY person that revelation belongs to.

Heavenly Host / God of Hosts Hosts = Armies

The word angelic host kept coming up for me, so I looked in the dictionary to see what the word means. One of the definitions in the dictionary is army. I never realized this. Through the Old Testament, it titles our God as the Lord of Hosts. Some have depicted this to means the stars and planets, however after reading a few passages, I would have to say the depiction is clearly of an army:
  1. 1 Kings 2:5
    Moreover thou knowest also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two captains of the hosts of Israel, unto Abner the son of Ner, and unto Amasa the son of Jether, whom he slew, and shed the blood of war in peace, and put the blood of war upon his girdle that was about his loins, and in his shoes that were on his feet.
    1 Kings 2:4-6 (in Context) 1 Kings 2 (Whole Chapter) Other Translations
  2. 1 Kings 15:20
    So Ben-hadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of the hosts which he had against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-beth-maachah, and all Cinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
    1 Kings 15:19-21 (in Context) 1 Kings 15 (Whole Chapter) Other Translations
more occurrences of the word hosts in KJV: 

There is a post in here from 5-5-13 Army of the Lord / a story and a prophetic message for you

It makes even more sense now the word that I was given and the messages about our being in The Army of the Lord.

After I came to this conclusion, I saw this site. It is pretty good http://www.alienresistance.org/ufos-the-bible/the-heavenly-host/

God speaks in pictures

Jeremiah 18

King James Version (KJV)
18 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,
Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.
Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.
And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.
Then the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.

I love this verse because it reminds me of the ways that God has spoken to me. Notice how He led Jeremiah to a potter's house so that he could watch the potter and get a better idea of what God was explaining to him. 

If you feel that God is calling you someplace that has nothing to do with your ministry, remember that He may be trying to get a point across to you and the only way for you to understand and see the picture in your head, is to see it with your own eyes first.

Thanksgiving Psalm 33


I happened by David Letterman the other day when I was looking for the weather channel. He made mention of the fact that Thanksgiving was coming up. He went on to say that Thanksgiving is a time to get together and thank each other for all of the things that we have done for each other throughout the year. It am not quoting verbatim but it was close to that. I could not help but see that his statement is a half truth but more importantly is what a lot of people have come to truly believe about Thanksgiving but this was not the original intent of our forefathers. http://history1800s.about.com/od/abrahamlincoln/a/Lincoln-Thanksgiving-proclam.htm

Happy Thanksgiving and God bless you all.   It is so awesome to be able to get together with family and friends that we love and thank God for everything that He has blessed our country with. I cannot help but to say my heart is hurting for those that are unable now to have this time that was set aside for this purpose so many years ago. Greed has driven the majority of stores now to open on Thanksgiving rather than waiting until Black Friday to commence the holiday shopping season. Do they feel by calling it, "early black Friday hours", that it takes away from the fact that they are pulling families a part in order that American's can run out and buy more stuff that can never buy happiness? Should only a people that work during business hours rather than retail, be able to take part in a National holiday that was proclaimed so long ago? In 20 years from now, will this day exist at all for any of us? What is so important material wise that it cannot wait for one more day? I urge you all to think about the consequences that will come of what they have started the ball rolling on this year. Please don't patronize these stores on Thanksgiving. Let's all stick together for the good of all. If they do not make the money they thought they would, maybe they will reconsider the changes they are making. It is the things like this that are eroding our family values and tearing our Nation to pieces. Stand now against this or eventually it could be you that is not able to spend time with your family and it will have gone so far by then, it will be harder to change.

Psalm 33

King James Version (KJV)
33 Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
Praise the Lord with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth.
He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10 The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
11 The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
13 The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
18 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield.
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.

Holiday Stamps at the USPS or UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE

I want to start this post by saying that I respect all people of every race and culture and where everyone is spiritually. This post is not about the beliefs of others but 100% focused on my belief and the beliefs of others that have committed themselves to Christ and live in the United States of America, that was founded on Christian morals and principals and is ONE NATION UNDER GOD. Christians are in no way better than other people, but they are in fact equal.  

I received the flyer above from THE UNITED STATES postal service last week. It stood out to me immediately that while they chose to show the images of other holiday named stamps, they also chose not to use a picture of a CHRISTmas stamp among them.  I logged onto their site to view the selection of holiday stamps that are presently available: 
https://store.usps.com/store/browse/subcategory.jsp?categoryId=subcatS_S_HolidayStamps&categoryNavIds=catBuyStamps%3AsubcatS_S_HolidayStamps#%23q_docSort%3D%26q_pageNum%3D2%26viewAll%3Dfalse%26q_facetTrail%3D%26categoryId%3DsubcatS_S_HolidayStamps%26nsraction%3DcategoryProducts

There are 2 stamps that say KWANZA on them and two that say HANUKKAH. There is only one that says Christmas on it. There are two more that have a woman and her baby as you may know to be Mary and Jesus but they chose to leave the word CHRISTMAS off these stamps.

So, my question to the United States Postal Service is why if you had room to advertise 3 holiday stamps on this flyer, did you choose to only use two holidays of the only three that you are recognizing in your entire collection of holiday stamps?  Why did you leave CHRISTmas out when the majority of the people that live in the United States are Christians and celebrate CHRISTmas? Why is this stamp not on your flyer rather than a gingerbread house that in itself is not an actual holiday?
https://store.usps.com/store/browse/productDetailSingleSku.jsp?categoryNav=false&navAction=push&navCount=0&productId=S_679904&categoryId=subcatS_S_HolidayStamps

I have called the postal service to ask this question  and have opened a case on Thursday, however they have not called me back and were supposed to on Friday. I called them today but they are closed until Monday. If you would like to state your opinion on what they have done, call the number below and ask for Consumer Relations to file a complaint on their choice of advertising.

Saturday 8 AM - 6 PM ET
There is also a petition that I found http://www.thepetitionsite.com/923/648/496/recognize-christ-on-christmas-stamps/#sign, however remember to focus that they DO offer 1 stamp that says Christmas, they just didn't include on the advertisement for their stamps that went out.

You may ask why I am making such a big deal of this small thing? Every Big Thing Starts Small..

Solomon of the Bible said, "It is the little foxes that ruin the vineyard". More often times than not, it is the smaller things that go unaware and turn into the BIG things. What they have done here is discriminatory against Christians even though on a small level. Here are more cases of discrimination and violation of our first amendment in some cases:  http://downloads.frc.org/EF/EF12H29.pdf.

One of the greatest things about our country is that we are permitted to practice our spiritual beliefs without being persecuted. This is awesome because it allows more people to come to Christ the way it should be, of free will. With this freedom however will be other religions that are are practiced in our country and we should have tolerance and respect of the opinions of those people practicing these religions and allow them do to so unharmed. I am 100% in agreement with this but I cannot help to see that something bigger is going on here in the last 20 years or so, maybe longer. In order to understand what I am about to say, we need to go back to our roots as a country and where it all started. There are many different places that you can study American History but one has to be very careful where and what they are studying. There have been so many revisions made to everything, that you need to make sure that what you are looking at is an actual historical document. Here are the rules that I try to follow when I am studying for knowledge on any particular subject. I look in more than one place and if there is another side that is saying something complete opposite in some type of defense, I look at theirs too. If their are quotes used or statements made against something that someone said, I go away from the site I am reading it on and look for these in the news and other places that I trust to try to find what they are speaking of. This is to make sure that words are not taken out of context and that videos are not clipped so that it appears something else was said.

Having said all of this, I have found a site that references plenty of information about our country. I found out about this site because I watch Andrew Wommack and his shows this week that you are able to access on his site had David Barton on them explaining the history of our Country. What I really liked about what he was saying, is that he backs it up with historical information that you can investigate for Truth on your own. If you would like to see his site it is:
http://www.wallbuilders.com/

If you would like to see the show that aired regarding this which I truly recommend, you can see it right now
http://www.awmi.net/tv/this_week God And Country. If you visit the link after tomorrow, you will most likely find it in the archive section of the link to the left in 2013 archives. You can also listen via MP3 and save to your computer or even burn to CD for free http://www.awmi.net/extra/audio/1082.
I encourage you to scrutinize and challenge anything that they say to find the truth.

Once you have a grasp on how our nation was formed and on what beliefs our fore-fathers stood for, I feel you will find it was founded by individuals that believed in God and had Christian values and morals. They were obedient to God and read their Bibles for wise council on how to form our Union.

Isaiah 1:19

King James Version (KJV)19 If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land: 
It was because of their diligent obedience to His Word, that we were all set free by the principals that came to be known as the Constitution of the United States. You can study these principals here: http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html.

What is a constitution?

con·sti·tu·tion
noun1.the way in which a thing is composed or made up; makeup; composition: the chemical constitution ofthe cleanser.2.the physical character of the body as to strength, health, etc.: He has a strong constitution.3.Medicine/Medical, Psychology the aggregate of a person's physical and psychological characteristics.4.the act or process of constitutingestablishment.5.the state of being constitutedformation.  [kon-sti-too-shuhn, -tyoo-]  Show IPA

So, if the people that formed our nation stood for the things of God and the nation flourished the way that it has under these principles that came of Godly counsel. Why is America now turning away from these principals and values, in order to appease the people that come to our country to share in the liberties that came from a people that followed God through Christ, but want nothing to do with Christ? Our founders believed in what the Bible says and the Bible says the only way to God is through Christ and that when you believe in Christ, He will give you Godly wisdom through His Holy Spirit to guide you and you will know the Truth and the Truth will set you FREE.. They believed in and were obedient to His Word, therefore they had His guidance as they were writing the principles that are in our Constitution. It was penned of men that followed the Spirit of Christ and these principals have in fact made us FREE. They allowed non-Christians to live in our country at peace because we are supposed to be kind to aliens (which at that time would have included non Christians as most were and are Christian in the US) and they most likely understood that there are many ways to Christ, if one is given the grace needed in order to make the free will choice to follow Christ. They also probably felt in their hearts that once the non-Christians experienced the true loving nature of Christ, they would want to be a part of that like all good things.

In today's society, many have turned their back on Christ. I feel this started to happen long ago when certain leaders abused their authority and did so in the name of Christ, though Christ had nothing to do with and warned against the very behavior that they were involved in. The reason they got away with it is because they were not allowing us to read our Bibles and once we were allowed to read it, we were so used to following what others said, and  feared into not reading it,or maybe too lazy to do so that still today, it is left unread in many homes. Why did they want to keep the Bible away from us? It is because they knew the power that was available to us in knowing His Truth, and how it would set us free from their tyranny. They wanted to control the people with fear, rather than give the people their inalienable right to freedom. All of this saved for another post but back to the point at hand, why are we changing the core values that made our great Nation what it is, in order to appease the feelings of people that are unaware that the freedom we have experienced were born of the Spirit of Christ, which is how we worship and praise the creator of all, the one and only God that has blessed our nation for it? Being tolerant is different from changing your values and morals. If I were to go into a club that was founded on and practiced witchcraft, I would not expect them to change what they are doing to appease me. I simply would choose not go.  If you come to America, you have a choice of what religion you will follow however; you should understand that were founded on Christianity and worship God our Father and our original foundation will not change for you less we begin to experience the loss of the Grace of God that has made our country the way that it is, and the reason that you came to live here in the first place in most cases. Why is this not the way that our leaders of our country are responding regarding this topic?

Is it possible that the people that are in charge or would like to be in charge are so corrupt, they are welcoming these changes so that little by little, they can control you and eventually enslave you as most corrupt leaders want to do? Would that still be America, "the land of the free",  to you or would it be the same type of country that  you have heard about and maybe have experienced that is that is fearful rather than peaceful, hateful rather than loving and in poverty rather than wealth? If you want to know the difference of America and why we have flourished, the answer is GOD and only GOD. The government has violated our first amendment in many ways as Christians, as far as religious freedoms and it has not stopped and will continue to not stop there. They are starting there because they know it is was makes us the strong WE THE PEOPLE that we are.   If we do not stand up and start speaking out, we will become enslaved by this government and we will have no one to blame but ourselves. What can we do? Start with the little things. Take a couple of minutes and call the postal service and tell that that you do not like the fact that they left the Christmas stamp off their advertisement. Let your Christian voice be heard so loud that they have no choice but to put it on their advertisement next year. After that, each little fox that you see speak out!  Just speak your TRUTH in love. Let everyone know that we as Christians have rights that are equal to the rights of every other person in this nation. Each voice together will become one loud voice, that will stop them from taking away our rights and enslaving us to dictatorship. Most importantly study the Bible with a heart set on knowing your creator so that you can be who you were created to be spiritually and that is fearful of no man nor enslaved by him. Study the Constitution so that you  are better able to see with open eyes if someone is violating your rights as a citizen in free country.  Let us not be the people that perish for lack of knowledge.

Remember that all big things start small and that means good things too. Where two or more come together in His Name, there He will be:
