Our Ever Faithful Redeemer

Lord Will Never Fail Us

Have you ever been lied to, let down, abandoned, or left disappointed by someone who did not keep their promises? Have you lost confidence in people, concluding that no one can be trusted and that no man or woman is faithful? You are probably not alone.  In this increasingly morally decrepit world, where deceit, divorce, and duping are rampant, even within the walls of the Church, it's easy to come to that conclusion. But, I have a word of encouragement for you: there still remains One who is just, Faithful and True (Revelation 19:11), always!

The Bible boldly declares that "...it is impossible for God to lie..." (Hebrews 6:18); God loves us and does not break His promises; He fulfills what He says (Deuteronomy 7:8: Jeremiah 40:3). Whether we are faithful or not, God always "...remains faithful..."! (2 Timothy 2:13; Romans 3:3-4). Furthermore, The Word of God affirms and declares God's faithfulness:

“Therefore know that the Lord your God, He is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy for a thousand generations with those who love Him and keep His commandments” (Deuteronomy 7:9).

“God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:9). 

“But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one” (2 Thessalonians 3:3).

In life, we are always looking for someone to trust. We also know that trust serves as a safeguard against risk and uncertainty. Since no human being truly knows the future, we can only “predict” the future based on past experiences, with a dose of uncertainties and inaccuracies. The ability to know the future is obviously one ability God withheld from mankind, angels, and satanic hosts. As it is, knowing the future is a God-kind of ability for He declares:

“Remember this and be brave; take it to heart, you transgressors! Remember what happened long ago, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and no one is like Me. I declare the end from the beginning, and from long ago what is not yet done, saying: My plan will take place, and I will do all My will. I call a bird of prey^] from the east, a man for My purpose from a far country. Yes, I have spoken; so I will also bring it about. I have planned it; I will also do it” (Isaiah 46:9-11 HCSB).

We have all received a fair share of broken promises from our parents, friends, outsiders, spouses, and colleagues. This most likely led us to view what they say with caution, suspicion, and perhaps even distrust. We often suffer broken faith, humiliation, and hardheartedness as a result of those who disappointed us. We are even warned Scripturally not to put our trust in man (Jeremiah 17:5-6; ) Why? Because people are selfish and always consider their own interests first. It is better to trust in the Lord than to trust in people (Psalm 118:8).

God’s Faithfulness

We can always be comforted by the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8) and that He is faithful (1 John 1:9), and that He will be with us always – even to the end (Matthew 28:20; Hebrews 13:5). These are very precious promises and only those who put their trust in God have experienced how true He is to His promises (Hebrews 11:11).  Here are just a few instances of God's faithfulness:

• After Adam fell and throughout the exodus, God promised deliverance (Genesis 3:15; Deuteronomy 18:15). He fulfilled this by sending His Son Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:21-23), through whom you and I have the promise of eternal life (John 3:16).
• God promised to save Noah and his family from the flood (Genesis 6:17-18) and duly fulfilled this promise, establishing a new covenant with Noah (Genesis 9:9-17).
• God was faithful in fulfilling His promise to Abraham (Genesis 12:2-3, 15:4-5; 17:4-8; 18:14; 22:18).
• In spite of Job's many trials (Job 1:8-22), God was faithful to him (Job 42:12-16).
• God was faithful to Ishmael and did not abandon him; he blessed him and his descendants (Genesis 17:18-20)
• God kept His promise to protect and bless the children of Israel when they obeyed (Exodus 19:5-6), and He was faithful in keeping His covenant with them (Psalm 105:9-10)
• God was faithful to Joshua and Caleb and fulfilled His promise to them (Joshua 1:1-4; Joshua 14:6-14; Numbers 14:24; Deuteronomy 1:36).
• God kept His promise to David to establish his throne forever (2 Samuel 7:16); this is fulfilled through Jesus's eternal reign (Daniel 7:13-14; Luke 1:30-33; Acts 2:29–33; 2 Peter 1:11).

However, if we disobey the Lord, and treat Him with distrust, or charge Him with unfaithfulness in our hearts, we will not receive any of the good promises He made; instead, the fear of failure will meet us (Numbers 14:28-30). Furthermore, what leads people to fail in their faith is fear, impatience, and pressure from others (1 Samuel 13:11-12).

In our experience with the Lord, and this I will share from a strong conviction, I learned one lesson. When I waited for prophesied promises from the Lord to come to pass, I was driven by impatience, thinking that the Lord has now abandoned His promises. This led me to inquire frequently from Him and He gently reassured me that His plans concerning me have never changed and that I must just consider Him faithful (Jeremiah 29:11; Hebrews 10:23).

Brethren, not many of us may have had the opportunity of receiving a direct prophetic message from the Lord. However, this should not discourage our faith, and nor should it (in our view) diminish His faithfulness. His promises will always be in accordance with His Word, and as we grow in obedience, He lays out His plans for us in His vast Kingdom (Ephesians 4:7). We are only required to have faith, obey the teachings of the Lord, and live obediently, and His faithfulness will manifest (Luke 6:47-48).

Equally, the Lord reminded the Israelites that He was not doing things because they have done anything pleasing; He acted to display the glory of His faithfulness. This He did in accordance with His faithful promises to the patriarchs (Exodus 6:7-8; Ezekiel 36:22). The Lord declared to me that every word He utters or has uttered is a statement of intent and it must prove faithful (Jeremiah 1:12).

Testimony of God’s Faithfulness

In this ministry, the Lord told us that all things are possible if we just believe (Mark 9:23). We have no appetite for worldly things, and when we started out in this work, we had nothing except our faith and our Bibles. When the Lord assigned us to pray and witness (Please see Witnessing Part I, Witnessing Part II, and How This Ministry Started articles), we were aware that the Lord requires us to obey and use what we have to do His work. Although we needed tracts and means of transport (and we had neither of these), the work still had to be done even without these tools.

I don’t want to sound repetitive, but I would like to reiterate that The Lord only requires our availability, not what materials, money, or skills we have or don’t have. I have many friends in the Lord who have big plans for ministry work. Sadly these men are still “waiting” on the Lord; their dependence is on worldly things to do the work of God, yet all they need is faith and obedience.

Moreover, as a witness of Jesus Christ, I can truthfully testify how the Lord fulfilled promises to me personally, many of which I have shared on this website. He has not even overlooked promises He made to our children, but brought about many of the things He gave in this vision (see the Blessings from The Lord article). The Lord said the lessons He gave through this vision was to display His faithfulness and His rewards for obedience.

In conclusion, when we as a ministry and family were faced with severe tests including physical and verbal abuse from people as a result of the work we do in Christ, The Lord stepped in and saved us from our attackers. Whatever evil they plotted against us or threats they made never materialized. Therefore, my brethren, be encouraged; The Lord will take vengeance upon those who trouble you (2 Thessalonians 1:8). Hold on to Jesus Christ; He is faithfully committed to you, and your well-being. The well-being of the whole of mankind is His concern (see the promise He made through the recent vision to Muslims).

The Lord is faithful and has promised us numerous blessings for obeying Him and His Word (Deuteronomy 28:1-14), and likewise numerous dire consequences for disobedience (Deuteronomy 28:15-68). Our choice being between life and death (Romans 6:23; Deuteronomy 30:19-20); what choice do you make today? If you would like to trust in God's faithfulness and be anchored on the Solid Rock - The Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ - here is a Prayer of Sincere Repentance to get you started.

Underminding The Value Of Testing Times

“These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith--of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire--may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed” (1 Peter 1:7 NIV).

Do not Fail To Excel In God’s Will In These Times

 Brethren, while it is exciting to know that the coming of our Lord is imminent and curiously we all just eager to read or listen to news relating to such a great event that will usher in our redemption. A few weeks ago the Lord revealed to me that many people (including Christians) feel that their lives are being disrupted by the pandemic and they are eager to resume their lives and some have no desire to get closer to God.

This is what the Lord whispered to me: “They are desiring their former lives of sin and pleasures (Exodus 16:3), they should seek Me more in prayer and fasting during these times of testing so that I can purify them and get them ready for My Kingdom”.

Brethren, many of us have fallen into the trap of misjudging the times; we simply fail to acknowledge the Lord’s testing times and despise His saving grace and blame Him for disrupting our lives (Revelations 3:10; Deuteronomy 8:2).

As a ministry, we have been serving online since 2010 and 20 October 2012 we launched this website and by the Lord’s good grace we are still here serving you. As you know our message to you is original, we copied nobody’s visions or messages. We shared through our conviction as the Lord guided us. For your benefit dear brethren, some did try to label us as false and others tried to make us compromise on our visions which were attested by the Lord Himself to correspond with what they believe but we did not give in to them (Galatians 2:4-6) even after they stopped donating to our ministry. Therefore, money, anger, gossip, false accusations, threats, and insults did not stop us from sharing the truth about our Lord Jesus Christ as He revealed to us in line with the Bible and by His precious grace we are determined to complete our work (Acts 20:24; John 4:34).

Building Up Faith To Destroy spirit Of Doubt

Furthermore, let us cast aside the spirit of doubt and stop sitting in judgment over the faith of others. From our experience and this works all the time, if we pray hard and earnestly as the bible says (1 Thessalonians 5:17; James 5:17) stay in the Word daily (John 2:5; Psalm 1:1-3; Joshua 1:8) and be obedient (2 Corinthians 2:9) and being clothed in humility, you will be blessed with great faith, discernment and with the knowledge of knowing God’s will otherwise being doubtful brings confusion an unstable Christian life (James 1:8).

Be Prepared For Next Test

In conclusion, we should have discerned as we previously warned that an event that disrupts human will and activity should draw us to God and not lead us to rebel against Him (Numbers 14:1-4). In closing of this encouragement, I would like to boldly predict in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. This pandemic is the first of a few more worldwide disruptions before the Lord comes. As you know, we have already predicted that there will be a vaccine soon, and the world will return to ‘normal’ soon and suddenly something else will strike soon after this and about that the Lord will make it clear to us soon and to recap, it is the times of testing and purification…BE ALERT, WATCH, KEEP PRAYING and embrace God’s discipline as He purifies and readies us for the New Jerusalem. We know the worldly Christian don’t take kindly to such disruptiveness, but please consider it as God’s way of shaking the worldliness out of you so only He can remain (1 John 2:15).

If you would like to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and be freed from fear, please get started by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance. As always, for any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

Interfering In Other’s Marital vows

God Will Punish Meddlers 

“Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate” (Mark 10:9 NKJV).

Warning: We are encouraging the brethren to be watchful in repentance and pray daily as the DAY of the Lord approaches!

Very early this morning (14/09/2020), just after prayers I ask the Lord what I should write about for this week and the Lord reminded me of a vision He showed us last week Friday (11/09/2020) about a deceased woman who was closely related to us and whose funeral we attended recently. While this is a very sensitive matter to us and members of her family, the Lord Jesus Christ has commanded us to write an article to warn parents and others NOT to interfere in the marital relations of others in a way of causing the parties to separate.

A few days after her passing on, the Lord revealed to me that this precious woman went to Hell and He gave me some of the main reasons why she went there. Being a businesswoman with influence, the Lord revealed that amongst some of her sins she habitually interfered in the marital affairs of her children causing them to separate because of her strong dislike towards her children’s spouses. It was as if she was demanding her children to get married against their will and to separate from their spouses or she would disown them.

Being a minister of the holy gospel, I counseled her but she made up her mind on what she thought was best for her children. On the day of her passing, she died a humiliating death without peace which was marred by at least six (6) incidents and accidents to ensure she would not escape death on that day (Malachi 2:9). Being family, we have known her to be a generous and kind-hearted person, but the Lord was displeased with her for destroying the lives of her children even going against the sound advice of her husband who pleaded with her not to sow divisions.

Now, brethren, this is a very serious matter in the eyes of the Lord Almighty. It is true that we often interfere either ignorantly or purposely in the marital arrangement of others which may have caused deep divisions amongst the parties that stirred up feelings of bitterness, hatred, and unforgiveness (Romans 14:13). As we know, marriage brings together two families not to interfere but to provide support and godly guidance (Titus 2:4; 1 Corinthians 7:27).

Being A Stumbling Block Causing Family Feuds

Now dear brethren, it is very displeasing and disgraceful to the Lord when a parent(s) interfere in a biased way in the marital relationship of their children (Mark 10:9). We need to be very clear about this matter brethren, it does not matter who is right or wrong, the aim of settling a dispute in a marital relationship is to provide godly guidance to correct while acknowledging the mistake(s) of both parties and by so doing this will earn you the respect of the parties instead of their distrust and dislike(s). Scripturally, Laban who was Jacob’s father in law gave his daughters in marriage to Jacob while he still wanted to have some control over Jacob and his daughters that is why he (Jacob and his family) had to flee from Laban (Genesis 31:1-21). While Laban was in hot pursuit of Jacob, the God of Israel warned him. Naturally, as parents, we often act instinctively in defense of our children while overlooking how they may have contributed to the unfortunate situation. As it is, our aim of intervention should always be to help the couple deal with marital problems in line with the kind of conduct God expects from His children as scripturally provided (Ephesians 4:17-24).

Finally, the bible says we (Christians) must consider how we ought to encourage others in the will of the Lord (Hebrews 10:24-25) and NOT to cause others to stumble and sin against the Almighty Father, we will NOT escape His Judgments if we cause others to fall into sin and disobey the Lord (Luke 17:1; Matthew 18:6). In conclusion, we encourage you not to decide who should or should not marry your children if you do you will be guilty of controlling their God-given will which either gets the Lord’s approval or disapproval (Genesis 4:4-7).

If you would like to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and be freed from fear, please get started by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance. As always, for any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

The Rebellious Christian family

“Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it” (Proverbs 22:6 NLT). Also, “Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord” (Ephesians 5:22 NIV).

Facing Hell For Fearing Children

APOLOGY! Dear Brethren please accept our humble apology for the late posting of this week's article. Our country have been experiencing some power outages which hindered internet connectivity and this has affected our work. Be blessed as you read today's message.

Recently, a mother was involved in a serious vehicle accident which almost robs her of her life. After hearing of the incident my wife and I visited the family to express our sympathy and love. Now, with the sensitivity respect, and love this precious family deserves, the mother explained to us her ordeal and a close encounter with death. In her experience, she explained to us that she lost consciousness and entered into some thick darkness and the Lord called her back to life to our and her family’s delight.

However, the Lord revealed to us although this particular sister in the Lord professed to be saved and born-again, she would have gone to HELL because instead of her encouraging her children in the Lord she helps them in their sin and disobedience towards the Lord and their father and this was displeasing to Him. Because of her fear of losing her children’s respect and love, she gives them money to indulge in cigarettes, liquor, and other things. Thus, if we show more fear of losing our children in obedience to God we are not worthy to enter into His Kingdom (Matthew 19:29; Luke 10:16). Therefore, God’s will be done over rejection and ostracization!

What Causes Family Disunity?

Brethren, this is a very important message from the Lord which many families have neglected and paid the consequences of a divided, rebellious, and broken family situation. From the onset, there was and never will there be a perfect Christian family, due to the complexities of the human personality and the presence and influence of demons and sin (Romans 7:15; Ephesians 2:2). However, this does not mean that we have to lean on such excuses; it has been proven that sin can be overcome and through perseverance and hardships many godly families have experienced the power of God’s Grace (Genesis 4:7; Job 42:12). It is worth mentioning, Job did face a family crisis and rebellion from his wife (Job 2:9-10), but he was resolute in his commitment to God accepting the challenge to face hardship with the joy of getting to explore God’s grace, power, and judgments (Job 19:25-27).

I recently had an intense discussion with a family man who had been experiencing a rebellion in his family home. In our discourse, he explained to me how his ‘God-fearing’ wife would swear and disrespect him in front of their children who led to his children disrespecting, disobeying, and undermining his authority as a father. He further explained how this caused him pain, embarassment and great discouragement and we can guarentee you dear brethren, the Lord see the pain we inflict onto others and He will be their defender (Luke 18:7; Exodus 22:22-23). In other words, his wife played the role of father as well since he was not allowed to rebuke or correct his children and if he does the children would report him to their mother who shows no restrain to her generous and abusive tongue.

Brethren, it is very displeasing to the Lord if a husband and wife swop leadership roles in the family set up or when the father or mother bad-mouth each other to their children seeking justification for inappropriate conduct is equally destructive to a godly family. We have witnessed that too many father have become house-keepers either by choice or through economic situations and that led to their wives being the family heads resulting in a dysfunctional and strife-torn family situation where the wife runs the family and often the father’s functions without that God-given fatherly authority (Ephesians 6:4) and this does not matter whether the father or mother is employed or unemployed, what counts is a united, God-fearing and God-serving family (Joshua 24:15).

Showing Care For Children’s Salvation

Furthermore, fathers and mothers could also learn from Job who showed himself of being a God-conscience man who had the salvation and spiritual well-being of his children at heart when he made intercession for them before God by offering prayers and sacrifices on their behalf (Job 1:4-5). Being a father myself, I have learned that we have to face and defeat many forces to help our children overcome their spiritual battles. Acknowledging though, that such battles are not just won through the rod of discipline (Proverbs 23:13) but through prayer, love, patience, and continuous reminders to our children what God requires of them (Ecclesiastic 12:14). We need to emphasize, not the classroom psychology or worldly ways but God’s way secures God’s grace to salvation (1 John 5:11-12).

Do Not Idolize Servants Of The Lord

Rebuking A Brother For Idolizing

"So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, 'We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty" (Luke 17:10 NIV). Furthermore, the apostle Paul strongly rebuked the Corinthian Church when he said, "For when one says, I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere human beings? What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe--as the Lord has assigned to each his task" (1 Corinthians 3:4-5).

I recently had a conversation with a brother and I was SHOCKED TO notice A BROTHER'S BEHAVIOUR After I rebuked him for idolizing a servant of God (1 Timothy 5:20). In his defense and zeal for the ‘mighty’ prophet of the Lord he used a derogatory term which is impermissible for a Christian to utter (Ephesians 4:29). As we know THERE ARE MANY fine PROPHETS of the Lord OUT THERE who hardly crave people’s attention. While we are to love our ministers, nowhere in the bible are we allowed to give them veneration but sadly this generation loves giving praise to men (Acts 14:9). As we know brethren we must worship the Lord only, the gifts a brother or sister has do not make them equal with the Lord and as Paul demonstrated we are servants only. In some of our experiences with the Lord, we had a someone in our ministry who always had a tendency of pastor worship and this grieved the Lord so much so that He gave us visions exposing the sins of that particular pastor to draw the person’s attention to Him as the sole Praise receiver (Isaiah 42:8) and by the Lord’s grace the person was freed from pastor idolization.

Idolizing Dr. Owour

As we all know, some ‘prophet’ is allowing himself to be called the mightiest prophet of the Lord, and still, he is not rebuking nor discouraging his followers regarding this. Furthermore, the show they display to ‘glorify’ their ministers is outright idolatry and blasphemous in the sight of God. Let’s continue with this warning below!

In a short vision previously, the Lord gave us a vision warning that Dr. Owour might also go to HELL and we shared with the readers that Dr. Owour loves the praise of men and this also displeased the Lord. How this happened, we had a visiting brother who greatly idolized Dr. Owour in fact the brother overlooked the Lord’s rebuke and considered Dr. Owour’s words to be the sole authority. In his zeal, the brother wanted to preach the same message of Dr. Owour by even visiting Churches and preaching about ‘holiness and repentance’. For his trouble, the Lord rebuked the brother saying, “I did not call My son Fred (not real name) to preach in Churches about holiness and repentance, but to be an ambassador and witness of the Gospel’. As a result, the brother and many other brethren did not take kindly to this rebuke from the Lord, he even said we are ‘blaspheming’ Dr. Owour and for such folly, the Lord punished such brethren. Lately, Dr. Owour claims that God Almighty addresses him as 'my lord' how blasphemous! 

In addition, the Bible forbids prophet worship and to discourage people not to make a shrine of Moses’ graveside God buried him (Deuteronomy 34:5-7). Also, let’s look at the prophet Elijah, he was a humble servant who never insisted on self-honor. Thus, a true prophet or servant of God should rebuke his or her followers if not, the servant could be serving for self-adulation.

In conclusion, we are sharing a few Bible verses, “Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid” (Proverbs 12:1KJV).

Also, “So don't bother correcting mockers; they will only hate you. But correct the wise, and they will love” (Proverbs 9:8 KJV).

Finally, If you would like to accept Jesus Christ as your personal Savior and be freed from fear, please get started by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance. As always, for any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

Being Uncompromising In Your Faith As a Christian

“But we did not give up and submit to these people for even an hour, so that the truth of the gospel would be preserved for you” (Galatians 2:5 HCSB).

The vision of Economic Hardship in South Africa

Given to Brother Glenn on May 19, 2016

Truly, this vision is now a reality!

On the 19 May 2016, I (Brother Glenn) was shown a vision in which I saw that some economic hardship was going to hit some poor South African consumers (I knew it was South African because people spoke one of our local languages). I was in a big room with people and I heard how two women were complaining about food and transport costs that have gone up saying that they can't afford it. After listening to the women, the vision changed and I saw a young man buying goods but he did not have enough money. I heard how he negotiated with the shop assistant for a discount but with no success. I also saw a letter been given to this young man by a young lady and I knew that it was a retrenchment letter. End!

Interpretation: The Lord is saying that some belt-tightening times are lying ahead and many households will be severely affected here in South Africa and elsewhere around the world. Now, exactly when this will happen and how long it will last I don’t know! We would like to encourage the brethren to pray and those who are not saved to come to the Lord for refuge, for He will provide for those who trust in Him in trying times (2 Peter 2:9; Psalm 91:1-2).

Have you seen lately how Christians are being pressured to conform to the wicked ways of the world? As Christians, we are often faced with an uncomfortable challenge of living up to the truth of the Gospel. I mean uncomfortable because telling lies, slander, gossip, complaining and insulting others are almost ever-present phenomena which seem to follow us around. Furthermore, the Lord has purposely allowed Christians to co-habit with unbelievers to test and grow our fellowship with Him (Matthew 13:30). We also read that Lot’s righteous soul was tormented by the ungodly and wicked living of the people around him (2 Peter 2:8). It is a common fact the world over that not everybody embraces our Christian values and way of life. With Christianity being continuously marginalized, this further leads some Christians into isolation for fear of being insulted and mocked (Matthew 5:11).

How to Confidently Overcome the World as a Committed Christian

In our lead Scripture above, the apostle Paul assertively expressed his confidence in the gospel and the truth it represents. As a matter of principle, the apostle Paul was not swayed by people’s opinions and nor could their opinions alter or influence the truthfulness of the gospel (2 Corinthians 10:5). Instead, he fearlessly and unashamedly challenged ideas, beliefs and values which offered no hope (Acts 17:22-34; Romans 1:16). For the gospel, the Apostle Paul’s boldness was evident amongst the peoples of the known world the Jews, Greeks and non-Greeks (Romans 1:14). We may confidently say that the preaching of the gospel by the Lord’s witnesses was a declaration of the gospel’s power and truth as a solemn victory over myths, Satan and false religions (Acts 4:12; 1 Corinthians 8:4). The power of truth in Jesus name not only unmasked demonic influence over people’s lives, but it also displays its dominance over the power of Satan and evil (Acts 8:9-24;13:9-11).

In addition, the apostle John said “For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith” (1 John 5:4 ESV). Therefore, from the actions and faith of the Lord’s witnesses, we observe how they demonstrated their faith by overcoming their own weaknesses and the various opposition from demons and unbelievers (Galatians 2:4; 1 Corinthians 2:4). Their faith was closely connected to their love for God and the joy of the Good News being discharged by the Holy Spirit. As it is, their discouragement and sufferings were absorbed by their love for the truth, their fear of the Lord, and their hope in the Lord and His promises (Romans 8:18; Colossians 3:4; 2 Corinthians 4:17).

Standing Firm in Defence of Your Faith

Younger and new Christians often find it difficult to overcome the temptation of lying and leading compromising lives to please their friends. If you often feel oppressed and obligated to please your friends, colleagues, and non-believers, you may be certain that your faith is cold and inactive. This shows a distant relationship with the Lord. Our love for Him must be everywhere and present in what we do and say. Our attitudes and active faith overcomes feelings of inadequacy and being ashamed (John 14:23). As freed Christians we must resist such demonically oppressive feelings, which are vices that cause enslavement.

When the Apostle Peter's love for the Lord was tested, he responded in fear and denied that he knew the Lord and, as a result, he compromised his faith in the Lord (John 18:13-27). Years later, Peter was rebuked by Paul for compromising the truth of the gospel, highlighting that the gospel message is one and applicable to all people (Galatians 2:11-21). Whenever we do not want to take responsibility for something or help somebody, we sacrifice the truth and lie. We learnt this from a rebuke the Lord gave to a brother whose assistance was requested by a sister. The brother was not willing to help, so he lied. The Lord told him that he should not have lied. He thus compromised the truth!

In a vision to Jaydeen in December 2015, the Lord showed her how a young man who served in our ministry led a compromising Christian life when he was among his friends. Although he initially denied the evidence of the vision, his works came to light and he was sadly exposed for leading a double life. The Lord added that it greatly displeases Him if His children live double lives because this is misleading to the unbelievers and those who are weak in faith. Remember, we Christians are the light of the world and the salt of the earth and should "let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven" (Matthew 5:13-16 NIV). As we shared in a previous message, we are the Bible that Unbelievers Read.

The Lord has often led me, against my expectations, to address groups of people locally who were not saved. Being hesitant at times, I would first boldly declare my faith in the Lord as authority to present my message. Now whether they agreed with my message or not, I wouldn’t know but the power of conviction hitting those present is evident from their expressions and uneasy behaviour. Additionally, in my experience, people have often responded positively to the gospel when, as a Christian, I present the truth uncompromisingly. Occasionally, we would have to endure mockings with people rejecting the gospel, but this should not discourage us and lead us to take a compromising position or even give into feelings of guilt or inferiority.

We have had brethren being insulted and attacked by some unbelievers and people of other faiths. Knowing how that experience affected their confidence and faith, the Lord would give a message of STRONG encouragement to lift the brethren’s spirit while acknowledging their love for Him and their faith in Him. This served as an endorsement from the Lord to us to remain uncompromising and steadfast in our faith.

In terms of our union with the Lord and our relation to the gospel, a Christian should never feel or be led to feel that we owe the ungodly worldly answers to explain the state of the world or the state of suffering in the world. Such depressive questions and arguments are baseless and motivated by anger against God (2 Timothy 2:24). After having being born again, we unconditionally accepted the gospel truth and this is how we should be identified by the world.

To receive Jesus as your Lord and Savior, please start by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance. For any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

Blessed regards in uncompromising Christianity,

Being Committed To Your Call Of Being Christian

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me” (Galatians 2:20 NIV).

Before we proceed with this week's article, we would like to share the vision below, the Rapture train will soon take off...

The vision of the Rapture train READY for departure

Given to Charis on August 25, 2015

"I had a short rapture vision this morning. I saw myself with members of my family at a beautifully neat, tidy, and organized train station. There were countless people waiting in a long queue ready to purchase train tickets. I heard the voice of a young lady (I knew it was an angel of the Lord) announcing that there was room for only 5 more people on the train. The ticket attendant seemed to know the people whom the 5 seats were reserved for. I heard some people begging for a seat, particularly one lady who stood close by me. I saw some people trying to force their way through, but they could not succeed; the ticket attendant and the security personnel knew of all the plans these people were trying to make in order to get into the train." This was the end of the vision.

Brief interpretation

In this simple vision, the Lord is telling us that the rapture train is READY for departure and that there is room only for the 5 wise virgins (Matthew 25:7-13). The 5 signifies those who are ready and who will have their seats reserved. Those who are not ready will moan and beg to get on board to no avail. The Lord is pleading with you, BE READY! The Rapture train is already on the station ready for departure, REPENT and get right with God, booking your ticket to Heaven today!

A Commitment by Choice and Intent

True Christianity encourages a faith-based relationship with the Lord (1 Kings 8:61). As most of us would agree, in order to succeed, a relationship requires mutual respect and genuine love for the other person. Innately, no one wants to be taken advantage of in any given relationship, whether in marriage, business, or other friendly relationships. In other words, we all expect the other party to fulfill their obligations and promises in order for the relationship to be sustained. Even in temporary relationships, such as business contracts or political agreements, failure by either party in the relationship to honor obligations often results in the termination of the relationship.

In our message today, our focus relates to the choice we made to have a relationship with the Lord, when we said to Him: “Here I am, I have come to do your will” (Hebrews 10:9 NIV). When we commit to the Lord, our choice should never be based on "trying out" Christianity because the previous experience we had with religion could not help us find meaning or fulfillment in life. If we come to Christ with such an attitude or motive, we would not be happy, and sooner or later we would leave and try out another experience. This is typical of some people who have abandoned their faith in the Lord and joined other religions. This might seem right, but I doubt the initial choice was based on a true conviction and need for repentance. In an experience related to me recently, a brother told me that he responded to the call of the Lord out of a deep conviction fueled by a willingness to be freed from his old way of life.

Briefly, I heard someone very sincere and faithful in the Lord say to me: "Brother, before I exercised my choice of accepting the Lord to rule my life, I had the opportunity of reading the entire New Testament Bible, familiarizing myself with the various requirements, rewards, and punishments. After satisfying myself with the content of the new life through the New Testament and comparing the direction and experiences of my old life, and after many days of inner conflict, I surrendered to the Lord. Therefore, my choice was informed and I had to embrace all good and bad things lined up for me in this path and this served as a revelation to my faith. As I grew deeper into my commitment to Christ, I learned truth through my many mistakes, and each time, I discovered how narrow my own virtues were leading me deeper in my need for the Lord."

In my opinion, the brother relating this experience knew what he was doing and he willingly and bravely allowed the Lord to transform him resulting in an appreciation and more of the Lord.

Test of Commitment

Biblically, no relationship with God is without a test (Deuteronomy 8:2). At the beginning of his relationship with God, Abraham’s faith and obedience were tested (Genesis 22:1) and through this, his commitment was revealed. In acceptance of His commitment to His ministry and the work of the cross, our Lord Jesus allowed Satan’s test and completed His work leaving us an example of commitment (John 17:4; 1 Peter 2:21). Furthermore, in his zeal and commitment to the Lord, Paul the apostle, boldly declared and said, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus” (Acts 21:13).

Generally, within the Bible itself and without having time to refer to external historical sources, Christianity has a richly decorated history of brave and bold men and women of God who defied Kings and rulers, hardships and persecution in their commitment to God and in His commitment to them God rescued and upheld their cause (Daniel 3:16-18; Esther 4:15-16; Romans 8:35). Unlike today’s Christians, these warriors of our faith did not allow the discouragement of challenges as a license to complain and show bitterness. In contrast, they encouraged themselves on God’s deliverance because their refusal to bow to pressure shows their commitment (Daniel 6:20-22). Please allow me to share this brief experience, a few weeks into my new job in April 2010 after the Lord blessed me with the job He promised me (see Please Evangelize article), I complained to Him that the job was not what I expected due to the work demands and pressures. My complaints displeased the Lord and He told me to appreciate what I have and that complaining is an expression of bad spiritual fruit (Hebrews 12:28; Philippians 2:14-15). We often expect things coming from God to be easy and that is where we are wrong. The children of Israel were given and promised the Land of milk and honey but through obedience to God and at the cost of blood and sweat they received it (Numbers 33:53; Joshua 6:1-21; 7:3-12). When David was promised and anointed by God to take the Kingship from Saul, was his ascend to the throne easy? No! He faced endless troubles and persecution from Saul (1 Samuel 23:7-24). Likewise, the enemy is waging war against the children of God (Revelation 12:17; 1 Peter 5:8). However, as we obey God's Word and "Make every effort" to enter through the narrow gate, we will overcome him and receive God's promises (Luke 13:24; Revelation 12:11; Revelation 2:7).

The Christian message is being undermined by those who propose God as ‘give me’ and ‘fix it for me” and the moment people realize that it was after all not that easy, they quit and forsake their initial commitment (Luke 8:13). Having been a Christian for more than 20 years, I admit that I tried different things with God to get His attention. These were amongst others, complaints, getting angry with God for not doing something for me, selfish crying, and refusing to obey by not reading my Bible or praying. Through all these manipulative acts, my gain was just frustration that left me at the crossroads of my commitment. And moments after finding courage I would remind myself of the humility and faith others before I expressed and endured and this served as my encouragement to endure with a humble attitude (James 4:1-10).

Unswervingly Giving of Ourselves to God

There are some noteworthy people in the Bible who were commended for following the Lord God wholeheartedly without swerving to the left or right. Among them is King Josiah (2 Chronicles 34:2) and King David (1 Kings 14:8; 1 Kings 15:5). As determined believers, they sought the Lord, humbled themselves at His word, repented of their sins, purged the land of wickedness and idolatry, fought God's battles, cared about the well-being of God's temple, and trusted God by looking to Him even in hardship (2 Chronicles 34:3-28; 2 Samuel; Psalm 51).

As a testimony, we have some ministry members who had set a meeting to get together for fellowship and prayer. Before their meeting, some of their family members got sick with a cold and had not fully recovered by the day they planned to meet. In their commitment, they did not use this excuse to miss out on fellowship with the King of Kings who said, “For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst" (Matthew 18:20). Hence, they were blessed with God’s presence and encouraged to meet to pray together again. Likewise, there are many believers in Christ who show commitment to the Lord by seeking Him and serving Him despite discouragements, trials, or fear. They do it out of obedience to God and this shows love which is pleasing to God (1 John 5:2).

Therefore, in order to learn and receive from God, we are required to give ourselves wholly to His service and Lordship; in other words, our will in submission to His Will (Matthew 26:42; John 5:30). Our will becomes subject to His and His priorities become our interest. Knowing the heart and intentions of man, if we attempt to use God for personal gain, He renders our efforts fruitless and without reward (Matthew 6:33). This is surely not pleasing teaching to the world and sadly, many blaspheme the Lord as being a dictator. If we only follow the world's self-centered way of "self-actualization", we stand to lose your life, but we gain it when we sacrifice it in obedience to Christ (Mark 8:35). Fundamentally, the Lord has only given the human race two choices: the broad way to destruction and the narrow road to life (Matthew 7:13-14; Deuteronomy 30:19-20). If we love life and the absolute good of a life as promised by the Lord (John 3:16-17), there is the hope of peace and eternal life. Living in commitment to God’s will always disagree with rules given by man; but as it is, human rules seek freedom and independence from God (1 Samuel 8:6; Numbers 14:4; Exodus 32:4). As Christians, we have been given an opportunity to commit to a cause leading to eternal life. Let us, therefore, embrace it without complaints about this choice leads to a satisfying life of joy and peace (Romans 2:7).

In conclusion, have you been falling short of your commitment to God through compromise, complaints, excuses, or trials? In the Bible, Paul and Barnabas focused on “strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith", declaring boldly that: “We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” (Acts 14:22). So, be encouraged not to let any trials or discouragements hinder you from your dedication to the Lord Jesus.

Formation Of A New World Religious Body

One World Religious System

"The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet and was glittering with gold, precious stones, and pearls. She held a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries. The name written on her forehead was a mystery: ‘Babylon the great the mother of prostitutes and of the abominations of the earth’ (Revelations 17:4-5 NIV).

Visions to Claudia (20/07/2020).

The Lord appeared to me in a vision and said, "Things will be different for you and your family after the lockdown". 

Interpretation: The Lord revealed that the lockdown around the world will come to an end, but life will never be the same as before for us and many other families around the world. Please continue praying while being watchful we do not expect the same world.
Being Ready For The Kingdom Of God (14 July 2020).

I had a vision while I was walking and Angel of the Lord appeared to me and said, "Claudia you only have two more years to get ready". After I heard these words I saw towards my right there were many Christian brothers and sisters who were all happy and I could sense they were ready for the coming of the Lord. 

Interpretation: Dear READER, please be careful when you read this message. We are NOT saying the Rapture will take place in two years. Generally, the Lord is giving the unprepared Christians two years to get their spiritual houses in order (Isaiah 38:1) and it is best to grow in God's grace now so that when times of trials arrive we would be humble and ready.If you owe someone work towards repaying. If unforgiveness or being worldly repent. We can assure you in a different vision the Lord showed Claudia on July 13,2020 that Christians will not escape being persecuted.

It’s been a few weeks since the Lord laid this message on my heart to remind members of the body that the time is ripe and soon we will see the introduction of a super religious body to the world. While this Church body will profess to be religious in nature, it will function as a political arm of the world powers to control religious organizations across the globe.

Now there is not really much scriptural evidence regarding this coming religious body except what the book of Revelation provides in chapters 17, 18, and 19 and you may read all about it there. Throughout the years, the Lord has given us revelation regarding this mystery through various ministers of the gospel and we profoundly acknowledge the work many of them did on a relevant and important message as this in the past, and as such we might not differ much.

As a bible student, I have been in the business of both studying and observing world events since 1992. During that time, I literally followed every news item that relates to the development of political and economical co-operation between nations. Back then, there was not really much except the minor wars, earthquakes and the creation of the euro currency in terms of the ‘signs of the times’ (Matthew 24:3-31) to compare to what is unfolding in our time. Today and with the improvement of banking technology, we can attest to the fact that there are various ways digitally to make and receive payments where banks around the world operate on common interface platforms to enable easy transactions and to control the in and outflow of cash.

The New Common World Financial Order

We will not be dwelling much on this, except to say that the world economy has been designed to operate in unity and most United Nations members States are able to access funding and advice on political and economical reforms from various organizations like the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and other private organizations. Like we said in our ‘mark of the beast’ article, being part of new world political order they will make it impossible for individual countries to resist the change to a new universal currency after the reset or collapse of the current world economical system.

In recent times, Pope Francis and others have been vigorously campaigning for the unification of world religions and this has been widely reported in various media platforms. We need to mention that the Lord has revealed to us that this religious body will be more political in character and its aim is to create ‘tolerance’ among religions and to weaken the saving grace of the gospel through a deceitful theological narrative. Furthermore, this religious body will be supported financially by rich individuals and member countries of the new world order and affiliated churches will receive funding from this super-rich mother body (Revelation 17:4) while persecutions and insults will be meted out to churches who oppose the teachings of this religious body (Revelation 17:6). In addition, and as part of the persecutions drive, we have been shown that websites like ours and many other similar ministries will be discontinued as we will be operating ‘outside the policy requirements’ of web hosting companies.

How Long Before The New Religious Body Is Unveiled?

We all know brethren that of times we cannot say, BUT! The Lord has given us something to consider and this we have shared in our visions section.

In conclusion, please consider this as a developing article that will be updated as the Lord provides revelation relating to this coming religious body.

To accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, please start by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance. For any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

Christian's are Called To Envangelize

Important notice, we are reposting an article we share some time ago as the Lord is emphasizing that we should not neglect the work of the gospel. From next week Monday (13 July 2020), our articles will be available on the website every Monday. We, therefore, sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.  We are also sharing a vision from the Lord on the vision's page.

August 12, 2011

In the year 2009, I decided to start a church at home with my wife and my daughter Charis who was 8 years then. We read every night before bedtime our Bibles and praying together as a family. There were many nights when I wanted to have an early night and cancel our meetings, but I was always restrained. We have faithfully practiced this ever since and this is the hallmark of our home "As for me and my house we will serve the Lord" (Joshua 24:15).

Furthermore, on January 24, 2010, my wife and I joined our local church to fast for seven days for our church's needs as well as our own needs. I was unemployed for a full year and things were not going that well at home. As it is, we almost lost our home, but the Lord was gracious. I bless Jesus Christ!

Amazingly, on the night of January 25th, 2010, the Lord appeared to my daughter Charis for the first time telling her: “I love My children. My daughter Charis I am your Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I am going to show you visions and you must tell your father ".


The following evening the Lord appeared again to her telling her that "Your father is going to get a job." The Lord gave her 3 dates: February 12, May 12 and June 12, but just as I highlighted on the board the Lord appears with, it was in bold. (When the Lord visits her, He is coming with a huge white board, so when the Lord speaks to her the Words automatically writes on the board in various colors she has never seen in this life, the Lord would then command her to read from the board, and as she reads she is copying His words ADVERBATIM). This surely got my attention as I desperately needed a job.

The following evening the Lord wrote on His board: "Your father is going to get a job on a 'F' " with the rest of the other letters covered in tiny little clouds. This got us praying and the next evening He came and He said: "Clouds be removed" and the full sentence reads, "Your father is going to get a job on a Friday."

(I can guarantee you, some of you might have thought just as I did it was February, but I was wrong). This got us to look on the calendar and of all three months mentioned February 12, was the only date falling on a Friday. The Lord did not appear for about a full week until this came to pass, and IT DID. Glory to Jesus! Even though I prayed and the last bit of hope I had in the Lord would have been completely destroyed if this did not occur as predicted.

Moreover, this resulted in us taking note, and when the Lord saw we believed and that indeed the testimony He gave my daughter Charis is coming from Him. He started giving her dates on His next visits; at first it was not frequent, maybe 3 to 4 times a month. However, when we have questions He would come that same night we asked and bring the answer and He would re-confirm the date of His next visit to Charis. The Lord started giving us instructions about our prayer life, Bible reading and fasting. This was foundational and only after we faithfully obeyed which He confirmed we were given task to enter in His harvest field.

The work and the times we are enjoying with the Lord is precious in every way, but is was NEVER a bed of roses, The Lord Jesus Christ is VERY HOLY and strict, He knows all people, days of excuses and laziness ended and the Lord required faithfulness and commitment. My wife and I was charged to get 10 people to pray with every Friday evening for 5 weeks and after these weeks of prayer He gave us 2 weeks to get 20 people to pray with us, but only 3 people from the 10 committed to stay on. With the grace of the Lord we went out to ask Christian brethren in Christ whom we knew serves the Lord to pray come pray with us, we even shared our daughters testimony to show them it is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself who is calling them to prayer. Sadly, some promised but never committed or showed. We ended up being 6 only and the Lord added 3 more people and the nine of us was duly appointed to witness EVERY FRIDAY evening.

This has been going on for well over a year now, starting in our own neighbourhood and various other areas around us. The Lord then tested us by sending us out every day until we finish a certain area, starting from 08:00 A.M to 22H00. Now, at first we cheated on the time, but He rebuked us and we obeyed. Our biggest test came in August this year when the Lord commanded us to witness for a full month EVERYDAY from 08:00 A.M to 22H00 while fasting also. This was the most, very most challenging task in all our Christian life. Again by the Grace of the Lord, we conquered our weaknesses and we demonstrated to ourselves we LOVE Jesus Christ, not just with words but in every way. During this time, Charis was looking after our 5 year old daughter and 3 other children the Lord put into our care, and being 11 years she did a stunning job.

Finally, in our last letter, we appealed to you all to help us with witnessing material, and the response was overwhelming. The believers who are reading the "I AM COMING LETTERS" did not disappoint. Some offered prayers, ministry related literature, money and even some personal items. Those who offered money we took to the Lord in prayer and He gave personal messages to the brothers who offered to donate money to this ministry. The Lord only selected two people and one brother is still faithfully donating, may the Lord bless him for His faithful service to God. This donation we use for additional tracts, transport and as the Lord directs. NOTHING for any personal use, the Lord seriously warns many of our members through Charis against GREED and Selfishness.

Dear precious children of God, I have no time to add visions and revelations, because some of them are personal to some of our members. The Lord has revealed some secret sins of some members to Charis in Powerful visions. These have led to many people repenting because she was also shown how they will be judged and end up in HELL.

Recently, a young boy of about 13 years was exposed by the Lord. This boy accepted the Lord in our Home church. He was given personal messages by the Lord through Charis to pray 3 times a day and to stay away from bad company, He was also warned to STOP listening and singing worldly music. Even after all these warnings, he did not listen. The Lord then showed Charis in a vision, how this young boy was possessed by pornographic lustful spirit and all 10 those demonic characters of BEN10: some wolf, ghost and grotesque creatures. She was shown all that he was doing, for all these things came out of Him, she was shown two full porn movies coming out of this boy, the demonic cartoon characters and some porno magazines, these beings as they came out of this boy tried to scared Charis off but she stood steadfast rebuking them in Jesus name. The Lord showed Charis that whatever thing you watch on TV habitually possesses you. During the Lord's many visits to Charis He commended us as a family for "eating God's Word at night instead of spending time in front of the TV".

In conclusion, on the morning of 08 December 2011, Charis was shown Heaven with all its BEAUTY and the Lord hugging each one of us who made it, she was however saddened by a Voice that said: “There is no Jackie (Not her real name) here".

When will the Lord come?

We surely don't know, we asked Him directly since we are allowed to ask questions, but He did not answer this question. We certainly don't want to get involved in date-setting; however we expect the Lord any day, I say so because when we asked Him something that involves an extended time span, He gives no answer. Did He show Charis the Rapture? Yes He did last year April. I sent some people her RAPTURE Vision and we surely do not interpret the vision to mean it will be on her 12th birthday as she saw in the vision it could mean the 12th hour as well.

Brother Glenn van Rooyen

Being Disrespectful Displeases the Lord

Love “isn't RUDE. It doesn't think about itself. It isn't irritable. It doesn't keep track of wrongs” (1 Corinthians 13:5 God’s Word Translation).

I received this message when I paged through the book in which Charis recorded all the Lord’s messages to us and many other people. What struck my attention was the Lord’s repeated warning to us NOT to be rude. Strikingly, one brother was warned that his habitual rudeness will land him in Hell. As it is, most of these messages to the various individuals were given in a serious tone, because the Lord phrased it as, “I have a serious message for my son or daughter …”.It is not hard to figure out that somebody rude has anger, hurtful feelings and operates from the absence of peace. Being rude shows the presence of evil and God’s absence!

Offensive Christians

As Christians, we are expected Biblically to live our lives completely free from any kind of ungodly influences and evil behaviour (Ephesians 4:22-32). Literally, the Bible encourages a very high standard of holy living, free from a willful and evil attitude. It means in our conduct love, patience and humility must be evident. In other words, a Christian must be seen to be simply different ready to shine forth in love.

Having been around many Christians in ministry work, I did come across very nasty ‘Christians’ who displays a sour attitude of extreme hateful and hurtful behaviour. In almost spontaneity, they display the fruits of anger, dislike of others, intolerance, keeping away from associating and participating in any ministry activity and avoiding the trouble of working for the benefit of others. In their love for troublesome behaviour, it is almost an offense to correct such ‘Christians’. No doubt, their inclination and obsession to their old attitude is nothing more than just a redress and not a complete change of heart and attitude. Being Christian requires of us to BE from the heart and our attitudes will be inviting, easy, approachable and a comfort to the troubled (2 Timothy 2:24). As Christians, we must continuously and consciously live to display a gentle attitude not by pretence but by a genuine conviction of devotion to this lofty life of peace in Christ.

Therefore, the direct opposite of being rude is to be respectful. Usually, we regard it as common practice when we act offensively towards others and this is rudeness. It is offensive and rude to interrupt and cut others off. It is equally rude and offensive to react angrily to a person’s previous misconduct; instead, we should pursue peaceful relations and overlook offensive behaviour (Proverbs 19:11; Hebrews 12:14). Being counselled by the Lord, I was told not to angrily and grudgingly respond to people’s offensive opinions and remarks (comments) but in gentleness and kindness we should correct (2 Timothy 2:25). In addition, some time ago, a brother [John] shared with me how he regretted innocently offending another brother [James] without ever thinking what he said would appear offensive. In reply and surprisingly, the brother James responded with much anger, hurt, and succeeded in conveying his foul mood and attitude towards brother John. To avoid a deeper feud caused by a misunderstanding, Brother John wisely toned down his response in a spirit of peace and to save their brotherly relationship in Christ. We all act as impetuously at times, it would be only to our benefit to learn from the experience of our brother John. So then, the presence of the love and peace of Christ in our hearts drives away the troublesome spirit of being rude (Colossians 3:12-17; 1 Peter 4:8).

Other Rude Ways

In the Good Manners article, we shared that it is rude when children stay preoccupied with technology and other things in their rooms while neglecting to greet guests. In encouraging the brethren with Having Love in Yourself, we also shared that the abrasive, rude and an unkind Christian does not bear good fruit but dwells in the parched land and away from the fruitfulness and nourishment found in Christ alone (Jeremiah 17:6).We must remain in Jesus Christ in order to bear good fruit and not be cut down (John 15:1-4). Some people are rude and disrespectful to their own family members but kind and respectful to their co-workers and friends whom they desire favour from. This is impartially showing love (James 2:1-7; Colossians 3:25).

We also shared in Life Through Experiences With The Lord Jesus Christ - Part II, that screaming at others during a normal conversation with an angry tone or bitterness is being rude. Some parents instead of Bringing up Children in the Fear of the Lord will resort to changing their tones by screaming, shouting, and yelling at their children in an effort to get obedience. Parents are called not to provoke children to anger (Ephesians 6:4) and the Lord showed that screaming, yelling, and shouting comes from a hateful spirit and is from the DEVIL. Being the salt of the earth and the light of the world, Christians are called not to do the enemy's will by being rude but to do God's will in bearing good fruit (Matthew 5:13-16; Galatians 5:22-23; 2 Corinthians 6:14).

Breaking the Cycle of Rudeness

My family and I just returned from a recent witnessing campaign to a town approximately 400 kilometres (about 250 miles) from Johannesburg and this was in response to a vision that we received from the Lord. In the vision to Jaydeen In early January 2016, and almost similar to the Apostle Paul’s (Acts 16:9-10) she was shown two elderly people we know who lives in that town saying, “You (referring to all of us) did not finish the work you started here, you must return to complete your work”. During our December 2015 visit to this town, we took some evangelising material like tracts with us to do some witnessing during the holidays. However, we did not have enough tracts with us to cover the entire area so we managed to cover a few streets. Knowing how many people still needed to be reached we went obediently and well resourced with tracts. By the grace and goodness of the Lord, we managed to evangelise, inspire and encourage the local Christians to witness as we circled the entire town with the help of a few willing and spirited local boys and girls. However, this exercise did not come without problems and since this seemed to be a new thing to the locals we were met with hostility and suspicion. However, the team and I were equally armed with love, patience, humility and gentle kindness (Galatians 5:22) and this grace from the Lord broke and silenced the spirit of rudeness because “…so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:10-11 NIV). As a result of our sincerity and truth, the locals responded respectfully as we showed obedience to the message we presented to them.

Brethren, as people it is common sense that we naturally engage in relationships with others and how we manage such relationships depends on our values. Some of our values might be motivated by our relationship with the Lord, our attitudes in submission to the new life in the Lord and our love for others (Mark 12:31). Basically, we break the cycle of the old person of being rude as other sinful things when we adopt an attitude to adapt to the new life in Christ. In so doing, we forcefully break the chambers of resistance to a new life in the Spirit (Galatians 5:16). This takes place when we willingly give in and over our own appetites, desires and will in exchange for the life of the cross. Now just listen to the Words of the Lord, “…My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will" (Matthew 26:39). It is therefore our willingness to be humble and submit by a strong conviction to please God that the old chains of bondage give way to the refreshing and non-offending new life (Ephesians 5:21).

In conclusion, in the old worldly life, it was encouraging to be mean, oppressing of others, controlling and showing off, but in the new life in the Lord Jesus Christ, we must live with respect and love according to His will (2 Corinthians 5:17). This includes giving soft answers instead of returning insult for insult and reviling for reviling (Proverbs 15:1; 1 Peter 3:9).Therefore, are you still willing to just like the teachings of the Lord but consciously and willfully live by the dictates of the old man of being rude, disrespectful and disobedient? Against our will, we must choose the Lord’s kindness – it is for our eternal good. Scripturally, Heaven is for the childlike, the humble and those who seek peace (Matthew 5:3-10).

To accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, please start by praying this Prayer of Sincere Repentance. For any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.

Be blessed in the Lord’s peace and kindness,

The Mark Of The Beast

Antichrist is Near

“And the second beast required all people small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead,” (Revelation 13:16-17 BSB).

Notice: We have updated our visions section with these visions as well. Also, we will be introducing a 'Notice board' page to communicate urgent message from the Lord daily and or any changes on the posting of articles. Again, we would like to apologise to you our beloved brethren for the delay in this week's message. As a ministry called to serve you, we do not undermind you or the importance of God's message to you. Our area was without electricity for most of the day yesterday (Monday June 9, 2020) while I was working on the article.

Vision of the Mark of the Beast (Claudia 24 April 2020).

I had a vision that I was walking with an angel of the Lord. I then saw a sign of the Mark of the Beast on my right arm which was invisible under my skin (Revelation 13:16-17). It was in a circular reddish form with an evil black image of a creature. I could see many greyish colored demons with Chinese facial features all around in human forms doing some weird dancing moves to this Chinese music. There was also an older Chinese woman I saw with a dancing demon while she was practicing witchcraft. I then asked the angel, this sign on my right arm is it the mark of the beast? Immediately one of the dancing demons played the music louder and the angel answered saying that the Mark of the Beast was not out yet! End of vision…

Brief explanation: Brethren, we were reluctant to share this vision as it contains a hidden message, but after weeks of prayer we decided to share it in obedience to the Lord. The aim of sharing this is not to draw discrimination against Chinese people, God forbid the Lord loves all people and so do we. In our understanding there is some evil that may have come from China or will come from there, again only the Lord knows the real meaning to this vision. We are simply sharing according to our faith and convictions!

Vision of Rapture (Claudia 3 June 2020)

I had a vision just before I got up for my morning prayers, In the vision, I saw myself walking with two of my school mates. It was impressed upon me to say to them, “guys the rapture is imminent we must repent”! We all immediately started praying as if urged to do so urgently. However, one of girls stopped praying while the other continued in prayer with me. While I was wondering why our one friend stopped praying, I looked up and saw a man dressed in red with a red face musk looking at me and I saw the one girl going to him. At that moment, I looked up into the sky and I could see an eye blinding light emanating from pure and thick transparent white clouds and I could hear how beautifully the angels were singing and worshiping God. End!

Explanation: There can be no doubt that the Lord here is highlighting the times in which we are living where the wise virgins will repent and keep their lamps burning while the others will abandon their faith and return to the world (Matthew 25:1-8). The lamps in this parable represent our faith and preparedness and such visions give us hope and understanding of the times we are living in. 

Dear Brethren this is a very, very important message to the body and the times in which we are living requires us to have and understanding on this Bible teaching. Also, we fully acknowledge the work done on this topic by some fine bible teachers but we will not be guided or influenced by the teachings on this subject that preceded this article. As a ministry, we strive to keep our work unique and use the Bible and whatever revelation the Lord provides to present to you as truthfully as the Lord required of us. Furthermore, will we not be led into being speculative on the identity of the false prophet or the man of sin (2 Thessalonians 2-3; Revelations 13:11). As a prophetic fact, we did ask the Lord who the antichrist was and He said that “I will not tell you who the antichrist is”. We should therefore be warned not to follow speculative names as this will cause many brethren to stumble and to end up being confused while spreading unnecessary fear and ill-feelings towards an innocent person.

How Will We Identify Antichrist?

Some 30 years plus I read and heard that Mr Gorbachev was the antichrist and prior to him some others were also implicated as being antichrist including recently some brethren falsely claiming saying Mr Obama was the antichrist and sadly some still believe so today! Still others said the beast is some super computer, true it may be called ‘beast’ due to its super processing capacity but a computer cannot demand people to worship it unless it has an ego (Revelations 13:8).

Thus, firstly the beast will demand to be worshipped as a god (Revelations 13:12). Secondly, the beast will utter some slanderous and blasphemies against our Lord and the One Eternal Almighty Heavenly Father in an attempt to alleviate himself and blaming God for the misfortunes of the world (Revelations 13:5-6). Thirdly as another identifying factor, "They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast." (Revelation 17:13 NIV).

The Present World Political System

Brethren some of you may ask, why we mix politics into the things of God. In answer to that, it is world politics that brings about changes and reforms that affects our daily lives. Some of the Old and New Testament prophets referred frequently to some political heads and events to give us an understanding on the political and cultural practices of the times they were living in (Acts 22: 22-23; 21:24; Daniel 10:1) we simply cannot ignore the impact this have on our lives today. Now currently, the world is divided on many issues and all UN member states are collectively bound by the various United Nations resolutions, charters and articles (see for example Chapter VII Article 51 and many similar UN adopted articles). As it is, under the current human rights culture and statutes exercised through the United Nations, antichrist cannot feature. However, after the abolishment and overhaul of the current world political system, will he arise first as an ambassador of peace after wartime I believe and he will gradually show his true nature of being a devil and ruthless dictator.

Therefore, the man of sin antichrist will have to ascend to a high political office and he will wield an extraordinary influence and power over his peers to cause them to give up their political power. Equally, the kings or world leaders who will give their power and authority to antichrist will be united in their efforts to see a united one World super leader and a single political head. As a matter of fact, it is no secret today’s technology makes it possible for a leader to run a country from anywhere in the world and if the current borders as observed today are abolished we will be left with one world. Fourthly, the man of sin will be able exercise some supernatural powers in the sight of man to cause them to wonder (1 Thessalonians 2:9-10; Revelation 13:3).

The Triggering Events Leading To One World Currency

Furthermore, please allow me to sound somewhat political here since this one world government is a political thing. It is true, countries will not easily give up their sovereignty but Covid-19 has created the perfect opportunity… how? In order to fight the financial impact of the pandemic, countries need funds for their various governmental functions and programmes so during the current pandemic countries around the world have approached the IMF, the World Bank and other private sources for loans.

As a result, this in return has increased their foreign debt on top of what they already owing. Now please allow me to give a bold prediction, the Lord showed me this past Saturday (06/06/2020) that there will be a global economic depression in the not too distant future. The world’s wealth will be controlled by a few rich countries who will emerge after the financial crisis and they will make up the kings who will give up their power to the beast (Revelation: 17:12-13). The aftermath of that will see the emergence of a new world monetary system as the current system would not be able to hold up to the new realities. Now brethren before you accuse me of being a doom prophet, we all know that the current world system will not hold and that naturally people always fight to protect and compete for resources and this will render war inevitable. Throughout history, world wars have always brought about new beginnings and present the emergence of new powers. Therefore, on the 16/02/2018, we reported a vision from the Lord that there will be wartime involving the whole world.

It will not happen immediately after the world emerges from this health crisis many people will think that life is back to normal when sudden destruction will follow (1 Thessalonians 5:3) and our attention would be drawn to a new event unfolding. Mark my words! We thus encourage you dear brethren, do not be deceived, continue in your salvation, pray for discernment and trust only in the Lord Jesus Christ as and not your political leaders and church leaders who will not be giving up their lavish lifestyles and succumb to financial favours from the one world religious movement that is coming. We will devote an article on that in weeks to come!

What The Mark Of The Beast Signifies

Being still in primary school during the early 1980’s, I heard about the antichrist and the mark of beast (Revelation 13:16-17) and emphasises was drawn to the economic aspect the buying and selling of goods that truly shows the control of resources and people.

Thus the first and most significant sign and explanation for us to identify what the mark of the beast really is will involve the buying and selling. Secondly, according to the preceding scripture, it would be very important to the beast and his cronies that the mark or symbol of his name forcibly given to people. If we may ask why should people be forced to take his name of number? Well the significance of having his number or name has a religious association that he is your god (2 Thessalonians 2:3-4; Revelations 13:8).

Now, when Satan gives his power, throne and authority to the beast that includes his agents or demons and those receiving the mark will be possessed and infected by demons not to resist worshipping the devil and the beast (Revelation 13:2-4). Presently, there is a significant amount of knowledge and teachings available to the world regarding the mark of the beast including warnings, but when the new world system comes into force the brave and God-fearing will be separated from the weak-willed, selfish and God haters.

How Much Before All This Will Happen?

Importantly, only the Lord knows if all that must happen will be before or after the rapture, whichever comes first we must be prepared for both. We know that Christians throughout the centuries have debated this honestly, only God Almighty knows! In my view it will not be many years before we see all this being fulfilled. However, the Lord, who is in charge of the times is preparing us by giving us revelations relating what we can expect shortly including after this world health crisis, which will lead to a world financial crisis while not immediately but that will be the next including war involving multiple countries, you can count on this it will proof truthful! Furthermore, what we know is that fear will increase as things get worse; many people will abandon their faith (Matthew 24:10) and becoming bitter, impatient for waiting on the Lord to fulfil His promises. Finally, dear brethren let us persevere in prayer and obedience towards the Lord to receive grace when testing times comes (Revelation 3:10).


If you would like to accept the Lord Jesus and His abundant and unfailing love for you, here is a suggested Prayer of Sincere Repentance to get you started. For any questions or comments on this article or our ministry, please contact us.
