The lion had neither eaten the corpse nor attacked the donkey. 1 Kings 13:28
If we ask anything that accords with his will, he hears us. 1 John 5:14
The simple point God is making to me today, we must do things according to his will, everything. Most of the teachings today is about asking for whatever you want, and or reading a bible verse and claiming it as yours and you will get it. There are different versions of this doctrine like the prosperity gospel and a lesser one of just demanding the god they serve gives them what they want. The Jews made this mistake even with Yeshua when they expected him to keep feeding them as written in John chapter 6.
We must be careful about what we ask for. When I first come to know God, that is to hear him and start to obey him. I asked for things that were not really of God’s will, yet indirectly were. For example I asked for a woman to be like this and that, and God gave her to me. I thought it was a forever perfect relationship, yet it wasn’t. In the end the things I wanted were the things which tore us apart after 6 years.
Then when I moved to Mexico because God told me to, I met my wife of 15 years. And with her my prayer was very different. I said Lord, you have finally taught me to love, and it seems a wife is in the cards for me. But if you want me to remain single, so be it. However if you want me to be married, you bring the perfect woman to me for me.
Even with this prayer, my expectations of who my wife would be were very different from what he brought me. And the life of peace I thought would come with this so-called perfect woman for me, brought a lot of issues to overcome.
But then that is the way of God, he brings two completely different people together, the old saying opposites attract. And then we expect the other person to change according to our perspective of what is right and wrong. And when the other person won’t and expects the same from you, it brings division.
But the purpose of God is very different, he is expecting both of you to change, to see the good in both the male and female viewpoints. In my case the good and bad of the US and Mexican cultures. The differences of being raised dirt poor and in a good middle class family. A background of survival and one of a good education with a sports background.
The differences in my wife and I and how we were raised is the complete opposite. And it brought a lot of problems, trials and tribulations for us both. That was the plan of God, not a simple carefree life of worldly peace.
But there are the trials the Lord wants you to experience, ones that are bringing us both closer to him and his truth. Because in the end you can read about peoples problems in a bible or elsewhere, but until you live them and experience them in the light of God. It is an entirely different thing.
But it also must be in the light of God. My first marriage was my own choice and there was nothing of the light of God in it. So I never learned anything from it, I saw it as the same as everyone else, just another terrible marriage that ended in divorce like over 50% of the people. The thing I learned was the things I thought I needed in a woman, and why I told God what I wanted, which again was not what was good for me and ended as well.
But when you live in the light of God, and come to the realization that it is not a life of a wife who agrees with everything you say and lets you be like a King. But a partner who tests you, and you her. Which you then remain in the light so the Lord can show you what he is trying to teach you through it. If you both do this, then it brings you into the truth of right and wrong. There is no other way to teach you this. The problem is we do not like the way the Lord teaches us, we do not want to go through the trials and tribulations. We want that wife who is always agreeable and does what we say. One that is always sexy and ready for sex, never grumpy or out of the mood. One that maintains her body, and her youthful looks. We have this idea of the perfect trophy wife, or at least I do. And it escapes us mostly because we do not want to endure nor does your wife to, in order to find the middle ground God wants for you, and in the right light he wants it.
For example, my wife does maintain a youthful look with a nice body, and I do the same the best we can. Age will have its way with everyone, but you can go down fighting it or just give up. But the main point is in what light are you doing it? Because many sexy good looking women do it for the compliments, for the flirting of other men, the looks they give them. Basically it is to draw attention to themselves, and not to be a pleasing sacrifice to God and their husband. Many of these women who are trophies end up cheating on their spouse because they do it for the wrong reason.
Do you get the point? Which is whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. Not for your own glory or way. The way of the world is evil, the way of God is good. The example above is a perfect example, because a man in the flesh does not see it as evil when we do things to look good so other people notice and tell us how sexy and beautiful we are. But in the eyes of God it is. He wants us to take care of our bodies, to look good and do what we should to maintain a youthful look. But not to be noticed and complimented by others. But to be pleasing to him, to remain healthy for ourselves, and to remain attractive to our spouses.
Same with sex, it is very wrong to sleep around and or cheat on a spouse. But sex in your marriage is a good, healthy thing. If you eat trash foods, get fat and lose your sex drive because of this, you destroy the sanctity of the marriage. You are doing yourself and your spouse a disservice and will NOT inherit the Kingdom of God.
As Paul wrote, your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit. But it won’t be if you do not maintain it with a proper diet and exercise, as well as not defiling it with sex outside of marriage.
So let’s tie this in with the verses above. The first one was of a prophet who heard God and delivered a message, and God told him NOT to eat the food of the king. So at first he did not eat. Then a false prophet came to him and convinced him to return and eat , saying Adonai told him to tell this prophet. So he did without checking with Adonai himself. Then Adonai had a lion kill him, but interestingly enough the lion did not eat him, nor did it kill or eat the donkey, but just sat there.
This story showed me two things. First the power of God to have a lion come from nowhere to kill the disobedient prophet and then to keep the lion out of its naturalistic way from killing the other men who came around and from killing the donkey. Nor did the lion eat anything. The second thing is how we can be right with God, do his will and deliver a message or live his message. And then a man comes along with a message, not of God and we do what he says instead.
As I read today the theme remained as one King, the son of Solomon, made two statues of calves of gold to worship. And the people followed what the king said to do. Now we all know how this ends. Yet this is the same story over and over. Most people are sheep, they cannot think for themselves. And they do not want to know God because his ways are too tough and demanding. They prefer to hear a man tell them what to do, which is an easier way. Or it is a way of free stuff.
I see it today, the people demanding free health care, free money in qe, free…. But what we do not understand is these free things bring biondage to the one giving them. The men in control of this world understand this and that is why they run the governments the way they do, giving these people free stuff paid for by tax dollars and not their own dollars. Then they own these companies which are getting money from the government to give these free things. And who pays the cost? Both the receiver and the tax payer, but not the one making trillions of dollars from the system they created.
An example I keep seeing over and over, using health care. A guy named Rockefeller back in the 1,930’s or so bought up all the companies pushing natural ways to heal. He also funded major colleges to teach his new medicine which we use today called drugs and surgeries. And the people went along with it, little by little year by year the attitude of the people changed and accepted it. So now we have major problems. We have a health care system too expensive for the normal person to pay. And extremely poor health with all kinds of diseases coming from nowhere to becoming a serious health problem. People are seriously fat, even when you try your hardest to not be. If you ever see pictures from the 1970’s before all this trash food, you will see healthy skinny people. Today no one is skinny like that, we are either obese or anorexic. When I was a kid in my teens I had no fat at all. Now I have a little around my mid section I cannot get rid of without looking anorexic. It is the food. And we do not get that one is feeding the other. The more we agree to eat their foods, the more we need health care, but the more we use their health care instead of natural care, the more we need their health care. We must stop and get out of this system. Have you ever noticed the elites are not fat and unhealthy? They know better than to be a part of the system they created for the rest of us.
Do you get the point again? They changed the food, they change the health care, they knew in doing this it would create big inflation which in the end steals your health, your wealth and keeps you asking for them to keep doing it more. Thinking if we have free health care things will change.
They will change but not for the good. I see over the years how these men change the government which make new laws of which many are unconstitutional but get passed anyways. And they push them as changing things for the better, telling us what we want to hear. But it is the opposite, it is taking more and more of our health and wealth. That is if you let it and play their game, a game of many lies.
And these lies we can see if you pay attention. For example I watch people and how they eat. We just got home from a trip on an airplane, and it always amazes me how the people eat. The cart came through the aisle and many people were ordering chips and pop. Looking at the menu there is nothing healthy about it, so we never eat on the plane. And you look at the people ordering this trash are all fat.
There are people who believe in the vaccines like it is a savior. And they make issues for those of us who do not and do not give it to our kids. And one of their arguments is how my kid who is not vaccinated will give their kid the illness they are vaccinated for. I saw the same with the covid vaccine, people telling me I had to wear a mask, stay home, get vaccinated or I’d kill other people. How does that make sense? If they are vaccinated and it really works, then how are they going to get anything from me?
Going on 6 years after the covid debacle, I never got vaccinated, did not put trash on my hands over and over, did not wear a mask except when necessary… And no one died from me including me. And I remain extremely healthy.
Yet I do know a lot of people who died from the vaccine, others who got cancer or other major health issues from the vaccine. Many of these are documented on the cdc’s sars website. All these things cost us a lot of money in unnecessary killer vaccines, as well as money from the shut down of the economy. A perfect example of how these elites do things to take our rights away and our money. No one can argue the cost of living is the same or less than 6 years ago before covid and the lock downs. And all of it is directly related to the things the governments are doing. Even trumps tariffs are doing a lot of harm. His war on Iran is doing extreme harm to the world economy. And the dems will agree, but the magas will defend trump to the end.
I can look at every president and most of congress and point out evil things they did which were unconstitutional, and spun it like it was the best thing for the country so the people accepted it. This is a small list of hundreds of things they are doing to us to take more power and control. And in every country and every government, some are further ahead than others. But we are singing up with a grateful heart to give them the power to take it all and put us more in bondage. And we do not see it because we trust the men leaders and not the Lord Adonai nor his son Yeshua. And it keeps us blind to the truth.
And then the problem becomes this agreement with the system by the majority of the people causes big problems for those of us who want nothing to do with it. Those of us who do not agree with this new system of bondage, are the ones who will be outcast and or put to death so the elites have no people to disagree and fight them.
This story has happened over and over and over, study history and see for yourself. Not the history they tell you about, but real history.
Another example is the bible, it has been changed and books have been removed. There are the dead scrolls, and the Ethiopian bible. And as I learn more about them, the more I know men changed them for their profit. The main message of the bible was about hearing and obeying the Lord. Yet they changed verses and completely took some of the books and burnt them so we never got this message, why? Because they cannot control you and get you to come to their church and give your money to them in tithes. Because we do not need them. The early church was the people, not a big building with huge cost. These people gathered in peoples homes, it did not cost a lot of money to do this.
The point is it is just another way to control us and take our money for no good reason, and the opposite, they take your money and steal your salvation because this is not the way, truth and light.
Last point of many today, which is this way of living we are given because we seek free stuff and man’s wisdom instead of God. Is it is the opposite of what God wants for us. Adonai’s plan is for us to have a life of abundance, of peace, joy and real love. Many times my wife as of late tells me how she loves me truly and deeply, and how I taught her to love.
In a way I did, but it was really God who taught her not me. Yeshua used me to teach her real love. And it all goes back to the same point as before, we were both complete opposites in all ways, not only personalities but also BIG cultural differences. But in overcoming them and finding the middle ground in God, it brought us both to higher places. There are always more things to learn, but our growth is HUGE. And it is a growth away from and apart from the system satan has helped the elites set up. These same men who are friends with epstein and eating kids, drinking their blood, having sex with 10 year olds… They know and obey their god satan and he profits them financially and in power and control. And the normal person goes along with it blind as a bat. Being controlled with the ways of satan and asking for more of it, then thinking they are “good people.”
The main point God makes to me over and over is who do you follow? The world and satan or the ways of Adonai which are crazy to the men of the world? If you do not hear and obey Yeshua, then you are worshipping and obeying the ways of satan and will join him in the next life.
