I will trust God for my reward

It seems that these last few years I’ve been bombarded by a culture that is captivated with “his special Christian lineage”, or  “her special Jewish heritage”, 

with possessing “exceptional giftings”, or “unusual anointings”, or “exceedingly high callings”; 

with being chosen by the Lord “for such a time as this”…to slay giants, move mountains, possess spheres of influence or liberate nations; 

to take on and defeat the “Python spirit”, the “Jezebel spirit“, the “Ahab spirit”, the “Leviathan spirit”, the “Pharisee spirit”, the “Sadducee spirit”, the “Religious spirit”, etc, etc, etc…No wonder so many of Gods people seem worn down and confused.

Big names on big platforms…“Now appoint for us a king to judge us like all the nations.”(1Samuel 8:1-22),

{In Revelation 2:20-23, Jesus, when confronting the Church of Thyatira over their tolerance of “that woman Jezebel” (an individual or individuals who were displaying the same lethal characteristics as the Jezebel of 1Kings) wasn’t giving them the go ahead, to jump on a media bandwagon and start “rebuking the Spirit of Jezebel”: 

He was calling them to REPENT - because of the evil influence that possibly more than one individual, was having on this Church.}


This is not an assault on personal deliverance ministry, which I generally support as biblical: There is precedent for this, as we see Jesus both naming and driving out demons. What I don’t believe (and what the Scriptures do not support) is self proclaimed apostles and prophets who publicly claim: 

1 The Lord has shown them a principality over a nation 

2. The Lord has shown them it’s name (By giving the principality a name, they are giving it fame - and also themselves)

3. The Lord has shown them how to drive it out  - usually involving huge platforms, arenas and conferences, taking place over years…and sometimes decades (as apposed to fasting, repentance and prayer.)  Jesus named the “deaf and dumb spirit” and then immediately humiliated it. He didn’t appear on a public platform, year after year rallying the troops to “drive these spirits out of our nation!”

Personally, I don’t care if these “apostles” and “prophets” say “God told me it’s name”. …I don’t care if they call down fire from heaven to prove their point…See: Revelation 13:11-18. Scripture is our final reference - and our safety net!  

If it’s not in the scripture, IT  WILL  NOT  BE  IN  MY  LIFE!!!


Why do we seem to be so restless? Why do we persistently want “more”? Why is the Scripture not sufficient? If Scripture is not enough for us, then what will be?

It’s only my sub-standard opinion here; but could it be that all of this is actually a distraction from Satan, to keep our attention on ourselves and away from the Lord and from doing the one thing that he has actually commissioned all of us, without exception, to do? (See Matthew 28:19-20) If we are not busy, about our Father’s business, will we not inevitably end up being about Satan’s?

Must we continue to pursue these people, for them to tell us that we have “the David anointing”, or “the Esther anointing”, or “the Daniel anointing”, or “the Elijah anointing”, or “the Joshua anointing”, or “the 22:22 anointing”, etc, etc, etc; me…me…me…. I…I…I

before we can ever do anything for God?

Since when did it ever become about us?

I don’t care if they’ve told us that it’s “the year of the mouth”…or “the year of the door”…or “the year of the great reset”…or “the year of the new beginnings”. Saints I do not base my walk and life as a Christian on the mystical readings of the numbers of a Jewish year, from a Hebraic calendar that is neither accurately nor authentically biblical.

(This is what pagans do - and consequently it will always ring true for someone!)


So now, I’m just asking the Lord to take me back to a place where there are none of these distractions…where it’s okay to be a nobody from nowhere, along with everyone else…Where the only thing required of me is to be a witness for Jesus…to return to the works I did at first (Rev.2:5)…to simply walk in the “Lord’s anointing”…Because I’m not anyone - from anywhere; I’m just a simple Bible teacher - and a student. And when I came here, I thought that would be enough…

I’m looking forward to returning to Kenya y’all…and then back home.


And if what I have written resonates in any way with you, keep low…and keep on! For everyone who humbles themselves will be exalted…and whoever exalts himself will be humbled…And believe me, the humbling is coming!

Written with much love and concern

The Beautiful Remnant of America Part 1

15  “Can a woman forget her nursing child,      that she should have no compassion on the son of her womb? Even these may forget,      yet I will not forget you. 16  Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;      your walls are continually before me. Isaiah 49:15-16 This most recent prophecy is part of my “Fast for Family”, and again runs parallel with my previous visions - some of which can be read in the footnotes at the end. The Beautiful Remnant of the United States of America  i The unity of baptism : I saw many in America: Many families. They stood as if on the banks of the Red Sea, as Israel under Moses…driven there by the Holy Spirit, perused by the kingdom of the anti-Christ. They had been driven there for Baptism: I saw many families. They went down separately…and when they came up they were one: in the Lord and in each other. I realized that this type of unity…the desire and prayer of Jesus…can only ...

Volume III The Beautiful Remnant of America - Part 2

The Beautiful Remnant of America Part II  So they shall fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord drives. Isaiah 59:19 Before continuing, please ensure that you have first read Chapter 1 ~ The Olive Press https://undergod714.blogspot.com/2024/03/john-1220-among-those-who-went-up-to.html i ~ The “Hidden” Remnant   “What is a tree without its roots? Roots expand underground in the darkness - the hidden place, that the tree may stand firmly grounded through the storm. This expansion does not come without faith, time, patience and endurance, and goes entirely un-noticed and un-acclaimed,  because it takes place underground . And yet we know that this expansion is essential to the life and health of the tree.  So it is for the Church in this hour… “What is a house without its foundations?  A house built quickly- on sand    - will not stand - but the ...

Volume III ~ The Olive Press

This is the final of three volumes. As with the first two, there is repetitions - the same events but from different viewpoints - and as before, I ask that the reader be patient. You will read again much of what you have already read in volumes 1 & 2 - but there is a twist: Now, there are other nations involved: Because what happens in America will have a direct (or indirect) impact on the nations of the world. I will also write in detail about a global unraveling, that although beginning in America, will affect  the nations of the world. Volume I describes this unraveling, in many different ways. I recommend, before you read one more word of this booklet, to read the first 2 Volumes. Because their purpose is to prepare the Remnant of America for this unraveling.  None of the first pilgrims lived very long, upon entering the New World: But they were obedient to the Lord in the time He allotted them: The seed was sown into the soil of the infant nation. The harvest still re...
