Do We Wake Up Now or Do We Keep Slumbering?
Good morning from our house to yours.
Just know, we slumber in our natural sleep. Also we can be in slumber in the spiritual sense too.
Definition of slumber from Merriam-Webster:
The meaning of SLUMBER is to sleep lightly : doze. How to use slumber in a sentence. to sleep lightly : doze; sleep; to be in a torpid, slothful, or negligent state
The LORD gives us our five senses: tasting; touching; seeing; hearing and smelling. There are five senses that correlate in the spirit also.
Just for an example: we all know a physical ear is not the same as a spiritual ear, and so forth. Still we again see first the natural, then the spiritual.
““Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.” 1 Corinthians 15:46.
Now we will go back to the slumber message.
We need Wise up and Wake up!
We need to be like the 5 wise virgins and not like the 5 foolish ones who slumbered in the Bible.
We need be Ready for all things at hand coming on our land(s).
Even prepare naturally or physically, the best we are able for the days ahead!
It is not Wisdom to bury our head in the sands!
( Note: Still God can ‘multiple’ anything we have need of, if unable to put supplies aside.)
NEVER NO PANIC!
“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7.
Troubled times are coming and are here! We just need put our faith and works operating together.
“Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.” James 2:18,
Sure the good LORD above will see us through all things! Yet, be like the sons and daughters of Issachar and discern the times we are in.
Let’s do away with any little foxes that get in our way and hinder us!
“Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.” Song of Solomon 2:15.
Give Praise often to The LORD who gives us life and breath. Also stay in a spirit of repentance; prayer; and meditation daily.
None of us yet down here have arrived!
I sure don’t have a gold halo on my head, lol.
Let’s choose to love one another and to work together in Unity!
Bottom line, is to stay focused and sharp in the spirit!
If someone reading is not saved and the Holy Spirit is wooing you, come now to Jesus!
“For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” 2 Corinthians 6:2.
God bless each one as we press in and on together. Closing with this song.

Thank you Adams, Jay and Sandi for all your input! There was some very good points you brought outm
A lot of this message was meant about preparition for times ahead:
“We need be Ready for all things at hand coming on our land(s). Even prepare naturally or physically, the best we are able for the days ahead!”
Some speak against storing up, and some people go overboard in the natural. We still must trust God with it all even as we prepare.
Noah believed a flood was coming and prepared to the saving of his house.
God bless you each one.
Absolutely true! May God give us the wisdom of the Sons of Issachar in Jesus name. Thanks & greetings to you, Destini, her brother & all well wishers.
Mama,to confirm this prophetic words yesterday one of our pastors preached from Ecclesiastes 8:11 which says: Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore; the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
Yes, Most of us frustrates God’s Grace; takes His warnings & Mercy for granted & continue to live in sins citing there is plenty time to do evil & repent later not knowing it’s satanic trick. But Time is counting on us! I believe now is the right time for all of us to repent & do away with any little Foxes (eg. Secret sins, cheating, malice, bitterness etc) all which hinder our spiritual up lifting. May God help us all before its too late. Thanks
This reminds me of 1 corinth 5 where the man in the church has his Fathers wife, and Paul says is there not one among who is wise enough to judge this thing do you not know a little leaven leavens the whole lump. We might be comfortable sitting with sin thinking I would never do that, sin is contagious and highly infectious that is why it has to be dealt with. If it becomes acceptable comfortable the vine is ruined and as God has clearly been saying so will your church
Time is fleeting. We must be fully awake. I have been hearing all morning. What are your priorities? Still to them, lest you miss my timing. Do not put off til tomorrow what must be done today. Waste not, want not. Great reminder, dear Joyce of the lateness of the hour. Love you, Sandi
