[Brakelite]

Standing by and not standing up against the secularisation of our churches. Adopting worldly methods and programmes to accomplish spiritual goals. Not calling sin by its right name. Not realising that if we desire healing for our families, our cities, and our nations, God first desires healing for us .

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their
land. ”
2 Chronicles 2:14 KJV

I think one threat is us leaning on our own understanding and human wisdom to determine the choices we make. We often think we know what’s best , we know what is right. Isn’t that the mistake Eve made ………..and if you look throughout scripture, when Gods people did the same thing either they had to face negative consequences, or someone else did.

Good question. I think the biggest threat is who we say God is, making His voice fit our own agenda. Reusing to give up our agenda. But I also think another big threat is no light and because of there being no light, we remain captive to our own delusions and deceptions without even realizing we have deceived ourself and have not experienced freedom. Yet say we have it. So I agree with Jay Ross who said “we are” the biggest threat.

Believing that mere mortals have control over God's creation and plans.
If we vote this way then this will happen, or if we vote that way then that will happen.
Truth is only God knows and is in control of counting the votes.

What will be will be.
We deserve what we get, but we have faith in God's grace and forgiveness.
Pray.

Agree about believing we have control over God’s creation. When you said of what will happen if we vote this way, or that way and Gods counting the votes…do you mean in the upcoming election?

I think it's apathy. People go to meetings on Sundays but it's all got very samey in most places and people are content with that. But I heard onece that if you keep doing what you've always done you won't get anywhere new.

So true sister. Well said!

I was going to say deception was our greatest threat. But I believe it goes deeper than that ....and that is, losing our first love. Everything we do as followers and believers of Christ hinges on how we love God. It's the greatest commandment ....

Matthew 22:37-40
[37]Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
[38]This is the first and great commandment.
[39]And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
[40]On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

If we love God, we will love others.

1 John 4:7-12
[7]Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
[8]He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
[9]In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
[10]Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
[11]Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
[12]No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

In these last days (which I believe we are in) iniquity abounds and the love of many is growing cold.

Matthew 24:12
[12]And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

If we have our eyes fixed on Him, and we stay in a love relationship with Him, allowing our love to grow ...I think it would be near impossible for deception to come, because we love Him, and we love the truth.

If we deserve slavery we will recieve slavery. If we deserve freedom we will recieve freedom.
And I suppose which side your on depends on the eye of the one percieving.
When the Hebrews were in Egypt (originally) they had it good. They had the land of Goshen which was green and fair.
They were given pasture to raise their cattle and to keep their customs as they were raised.
Over time as they began to grow in numbers, the new Pharoah became concerned that the Hebrews would conspire with their enemies and try to take down Egypt. And so Pharoah in his fear chose to enslave the people to build his own kingdom stronger, and to discourage a mutiny of the people.
And the people, having lived in freedom were now given over to tyranny. And they cried that they were oppressed and needed rescuing.
So God sent Moses.
After having been freed and able to make their own way in the world, (freedom) , they began to cry that it was too hard, and they would rather be under Pharoahs tyranny than left to wander the wilderness trusting in God.

Freedom to some is tyranny. People become accustomed to being taken care of even if the situation is extreme.

Thomas Jefferson wrote:

“When a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government”​

― Thomas Jefferson, Declaration of Independence (Constitutions): Historical

Half of the people in the US feel it's time to take our chances in the wilderness. The other half are willing to remain in the status quo.
Neither side is willing to listen to the arguments of why staying or leaving is the better choice.

I believe the next election will be based on the people's willingness to step out and trust God, or to remain where they are comfortable even though the kingdom is falling down around them.

And I believe it is God who will be counting the hearts (votes) of the people.

Blessings in Christ Jesus Angelina. The greatest threat to the body of Christ today is not truly knowing who we truly are in Christ Jesus. Not being taught about The Holy Spirit and how to be One with The Lord. Not knowing The Power and Authority in Jesus Name. The enemy is having a field day with the church, with the exception of those that will be found in Him, on that Day. The Day that He acts.

Satan.

 

[CC7799]

The Truth.

I personally experienced Satanic attacks since 10/2022.
Some neighbors messing with me
Recent attack by few heretic's on thread nebukedazzer tyoe for antichrist by couple of heretic's. Obviously Satan is behind it. On prophecy forum.

Jume,2024.. I was verbally attacked by man on City bus. I defended myself by verbally telling him off.

He then acted like he would physically attack me. Another person in back of bus yelled, He's not worth it !!

This has Satan finger prints.

They were laughing about it.

Ephesians chapter 6

Christian people are in spiritual warfare against Powers of darkness.

Satan hates spiritual growth and the truth.

I must be threat to Satan.

Satan only attacks those who have Holy Spirit or have spiritual growth.

Ephesians chapter 1
Saints are sealed with Holy Spirit.

Gospel of Matthew.

Religious leaders hated Jesus.
He was always morally correct, and taught sound doctrine.

Envy was the motive against Jesus.

Money was another issue. People were flocking to Jesus, and the religious leaders we're losing money.

1 Corinthians chapter 2

The fake religious leaders conspired against Jesus and he was crucified.

In gospel of John.
Satan entered Judas Iscariot at last supper. Judas betrayed Jesus to the religious leaders.

We see Satan's finger prints.

Reprobates follow Satan and hate children of light, Romans chapter 1 to document.

Persecution and hatred by the wicked.

Ive been steadfast.

And using Jesus name to order Satan and evil spirits away from me.

Satan is attacking Body of Christ.

Pesce.

Praying.

World is getting to be a dangerous place no matter where you live.
Cities have to be the most scary though, lots of people.
I live in a very rural area and my neighbors are spread apart.
I don't come in contact with very many people. I'm pretty much homebound.
But I see a lot of things going on everywhere. And if I don't see it, I feel it. You just know.
We don't want to hide, but even the early church and many prophets in the old testament had to find a way to preserve.
Anyone with a conscience is being attacked.

There is a light at the end of this tunnel @stream .
Hold the line. Keep the Faith.
We are with you.
