 
		Shackling the Hands of the Almighty

Unbelievable. Questionable. Remarkable that the ALMIGHTY did no miracles because of their UNBELIEF!
Please note: it was not because He did not want to. It was not because He could not. Instead, it was because they did not want Him to! And so it is today!! Those who refuse and reject Jesus Christ refuse His wonder-working power. Are you refusing His help? How? Do you know someone who is refusing His power? What can you do?
So remember, if Jesus could do no works with some, we will not be able to as well. Some will doubt. Some will believe. Know the difference.
 
		Connected Instead of Distracted

By the way, you might find it interesting that this was during a very busy time of the day!
Big decisions require mega prayers! Are you praying in the will of God for the glory of the Lord?
Teaching someone how to pray is not only a great responsibility but also a great privilege. First, we need to be enrolled in the school of prayer. There is no graduation in this class until we get to heaven!
Had Jesus not been praying for Peter, he would not have gotten back up when he had fallen! But he did—and was restored. Remember: Jesus is praying for you.
 
		Get Filled Up and then Go Pour Out

By the way—take these daily!!
 
		Stinking Thinking Or Thankful Thinking

How are you THINKING these days? Are you looking down or up? Are you always THINKING negatively? So how can you CHANGE your THINKING?
While in prison awaiting martyrdom, Paul, inspired by God, writes a letter to the Church of Philippi—but really to us today as well. Contained within the letter are Holy Spirit-inspired instructions on numerous themes including suffering, joy, along with others.
More specifically, in the fourth chapter, after revealing the key to being free from the slavery of worry, he gives some extremely important insights as to how to live in victory with the CHRISTian’s thought life. Here it is; check it out:
1. How to overcome “Stinking Thinking” and turn it into “Thankful Thinking”! (Phil. 4:8) – “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.”
Do not miss that last phrase—“think on these things”!
Is it any wonder that Solomon wrote, {paraphrasing} As a man thinks in his heart, so is he (Prov. 4:24)?
“that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.”
“And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.”
The word “renewing” means a complete CHANGE for the better. It means to make fresh, or a new development—a renewal. By the way, it is achieved by God’s power! Do you need a renewal?
“that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
Conclusion: So instead of reading more self-help books or listening to psychiatrists and psychologists, try reading—and then heeding—the Word of God. After all, since Jesus made us (Col. 1:16), He knows how to fix us!
Love y’all,
 
		The Rise and Demise of AI

Is this a “Sign of the Time”?
Tracking every person’s financial transactions as well as medical decisions are just a few frightening results of AI. And by the way, the ultimate goal of the ten stages of AI is to develop and discover a Super-intelligent – Superhuman – God-like deity.
But in the light of the evil possibilities comes the assurance from the Word of God. Does it have anything to say concerning this 21st-century phenomenon? Consider “The Rise and Demise of AI” and how to live holy, productively, and wisely in our present day. But how? Here are 5 ways:
So know your Bible, test the spirits, remove any blind spots, fall in love with Jesus, and don’t forget to let others know by telling them.
 
		Getting Used to Dark – Keep the Light On

By the way, his compromises not only affected him, but the rippling effect—like a tsunami—hit his family as well.
Warning: We are not on a deserted island all alone. Instead, we all have family and friends that are not only listening and watching, but also influenced by our life. Resorting to an “I do not care” attitude will be sure to be one major stumbling block to those around us. Do you care?
So how can we keep from “Getting Used to the Dark – And Keeping the Light On”?
Several ways:
Turn the light on!
 
		Burned In or Up

The world is literally going up in smoke! Burned up!! So what does that tell you? It should tell us several things: Do not hold on to your possessions too tightly. Why? Because they will be BURNED UP!
So allow the Holy Spirit to BURN IN godliness rather than getting BURNED OUT from weariness.
 
		Be a REFRESHER, not a DEPRESSOR

Does that make sense?
Here the Holy Spirit uses the word which means to rest or refresh one’s spirit with one. Technically speaking, it has to do with getting refreshment by mutual contact.
Will you make that your prayer today?
 
		Climbing the Ladder That Reaches Heaven

This first rung on the ladder is amazing. Think with me. Not only does our Sovereign Lord work everything for our “GOOD”, but He also knows about it before it even happens! Wow!! This blessed truth should cause every believer in Jesus Christ to thank Him more, trust Him more, and share Him more. Do you agree?
Did you notice that it is Jesus that does the CALLING? He comes LOOKING for us first! Then, as we respond in the affirmative to FOLLOW Him, He makes us RIGHT (justifies)! Hallelujah!!
At last, this journey from heaven’s view is already finished and visible. However, from the Christian view, we are in the process. Imagine being glorified already?
 
		AI in the Sky

A system of tracking every person is being put into place today. Why? Because the Antichrist, with the help of the one world government, will be able to identify every person—facial recognition? In doing so, he will control the world politically, militarily, economically, socially, and spiritually.
Whoever controls the money controls the world. With a system capable of tracking every single person in place—which is now being built with the mega data centers all across America and the world—the Antichrist will be able to control who gets what economically; i.e., bread, food, groceries, cell phones, medical centers, etc. Think about that!
Interesting to note, the word “image” is translated “breath”! As of today—unlike ten, twenty years ago—through AI, chatbots, etc., robots have human-like features with abilities to talk and carry out multiple human tasks. They are being used at restaurants, nursing homes, hospitals, and factories. My wife and I went to a restaurant and met Rosy Bot—a robot who served our table. She had a good attitude!! Considered taking her home!!?
It will be a TAKEOVER! This “man of sin” will have his heyday as God’s permissive will unfolds. Remember, this is all in His plan. However, Paul, inspired by the Holy Spirit, reveals the Antichrist’s destination.
“And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders.” (2 Thessalonians 2:8–9)
Conclusion: Is AI in the sky? Whether that is true or not, we can be absolutely certain that Jesus Christ will come in the sky! So in spite of the advancements of AI, keep SHARING both the love of God and the judgment of God. Besides that, keep “LOOKING UP” because our “REDEMPTION” draws near!
