New PC today Tuesday, December 24, 2024, at? Thursday, December 26, 2024 at 1:23 pm off. Monday, December 30, 2024, at 6:38 pm. Tuesday, December 31, 2024, at 4:35 am. This is the last day of 2024. I am ready to accept my senior position in the society of mankind not by word but my example.

Here I am Wednesday, January 1, 2025, at 12:22 am …
Indeed! I am ready to give & to receive the power from on high TO BELIEVE in the reality of the Almighty Creator of Everything in existence like I have never done before. Far away the sound of firecrackers to welcome 2025 lingers on. I wonder who’s awake & who’s asleep physically as well as spiritually.
A Cry from the Depth of My Soul …
Unto You, Almighty Creator of Everything in existence I lift my being with thanksgiving in my heart. Let Your joy be my strength this year onward like it never has been before. Let the plan in Your mind to restore Your creation including Your loving family prosper. Let it prosper in the mind & heart of each one of children of Your heart. Let these be, NOT JUST PRETTY WORDS. Instead let them be the prayer You are ingraining in my heart to remain from there on to the end of time as we know time to be. So be it.
God Alone Can Satisfy The Yearning Of Our Souls …

(9) What profit remains for the worker from his toil?
(10) I have seen the painful labor and exertion and miserable business which God has given to the sons of men with which to exercise and busy themselves.
(11) He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men’s hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
Lack of Knowledge of God …
Hosea 4:6 AMPC+

Abomination Of Self- Righteousness …
Matthew 5:20 AMPC+
(20) For I tell you, unless your righteousness (your uprightness and your right standing with God) is more than that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
If My People Pray …
(13) If I shut up heaven so no rain falls, or if I command locusts to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people,
(14) If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, pray, seek, crave, and require of necessity My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land.
Jesus Foretells Destruction of the Temple …
Matthew 24:1-2 AMPC+

Signs of the End of the Age …
Matthew 24:37-39 AMPC+
(37) As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
(38) For just as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, [men] marrying and [women] being given in marriage, until the [very] day when Noah went into the ark,
(39) And they did not know or understand until the flood came and swept them all away–so will be the coming of the Son of Man. [Gen_6:5-8; Gen_7:6-24]
Where to worship? …
John 4:23-24 AMPC+
(23) A time will come, however, indeed it is already here, when the true (genuine) worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth (reality); for the Father is seeking just such people as these as His worshipers.
(24) God is a Spirit (a spiritual Being) and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth (reality).
Repentance …

Watch Yourselves …
Luke 21:34-36 AMPC+
(34) But take heed to yourselves and be on your guard, lest your hearts be overburdened and depressed (weighed down) with the N1giddiness and headache and N2nausea of self-indulgence, drunkenness, and worldly worries and cares pertaining to [the N3business of] this life, and [lest] that day come upon you suddenly like a trap or a noose;
(35) For it will come upon all who live upon the face of the entire earth.
(36) Keep awake then and watch at all times [be discreet, attentive, and ready], praying that you may have the full strength and ability and be accounted worthy to escape all these things [taken together] that will take place, and to stand in the presence of the Son of Man.
Put On God’s Whole Armor …

(10) In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides].
(11) Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil.
Answers to my searching soul …
- All has been heard; the end of the matter is:
- Fear the Almighty [revere and worship Him, knowing that He is].
- Keep His commandments
- For this is the whole of man [the full, original purpose of his creation
- The object of Master’s providence.
- The root of character
- The foundation of all happiness
- The adjustment to all inharmonious circumstances and conditions under the sun and the whole duty for every man
- For the Almighty shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it is good or evil.
- Proverbs 14:26-29
- In the reverent and worshipful fear of the Master there is strong confidence, and His children shall always have a place of refuge
- Reverent and worshipful fear of the Master is a fountain of life, that one may avoid the snares of death. [Joh_4:10, Joh_4:14
Amen- so be it, lov, thia
