Elisha Vision – Commentary

We had good start last night at River of Life Church. Sweet worship, a good group and receptive hearts to sharing about sons of Issachar “men who understand the times and know what Israel ought to do.” It was great to be with my brother Ken and Mavis again.

The main characteristics of the spirit of Amalek are genocide and murder with no reasonable basis. Haman in the Esther account was clearly a descendant of Agag, whom Saul failed to kill in Samuel’s day. The spirit is obviously with us today, but not in a clear bloodline.
According to Jewish history, the last traceable Amalekite was Herod. Josephus mentions the connection here: http://books.google.com/books?id=-MSl0S4G03YC&pg=PA8&lpg=PA8&dq=Herod+and+Amalek&source=bl&ots=KI4epmOWM2&sig=_d5EqU6N5iQDZ8teno2u-d2Vq3M&hl=en&ei=XIZxS5OJKYmWtgeb0MXtCQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CAsQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=Herod%20and%20Amalek&f=false

Topic # 1   Pat Robertson Vilified

“It never ceases to amaze me that in times of amazing human suffering somebody says something that can be so utterly stupid,” White House spokesman Robert Gibbs, commenting on Pat Robertson’s mention of the curse on Haiti. My question is this: Is there a better explanation for Haiti’s perennial situation. Pat’s reference to their pact with the devil, is historical. The curse is not from God, but the normal effect of serving satan. He came to steal, kill and destroy. He is just doing what he always does. Haiti’s 1791 pact with the devil is still in effect.

Pastor Charles Simpson once said: “It matters what you believe.” He was referring to the famines in India. They believed that cows were gods, so they had no meat. And rats were gods, so they lost much of their grain rather than kill the rats. America, on the other hand is blessed because this land was blessed by the foundations built by our forefathers who believed in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

Topic #2  Where is God in Times of Disaster?

There are two equally wrong extreme views of God. One, favored by the media, is that He causes killer storms and delights in the deaths. The other is that He has no power to stop them, watching helplessly as they destroy. The truth is neither extreme. The fact is that God has given man the choice between good and evil. For I have no pleasure in the death of one who dies,” says the Lord GOD (Yahweh). “Therefore turn and live!” Ezekiel 18:32 God’s heart is clear in this verse, yet when man chooses evil, there are inevitable consequences.

The gospel is defined in Romans 1, as both righteousness by faith and wrath against unrighteousness. It is good news that God will ultimately and eternally eliminate evil.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse. Romans 1:17-20

Today was our last meeting on this three week tour of New England. Pastor Gil and Robin Parmley of Faith Fellowship Church in Uxbridge, Mass hosted us. We had a wonderful service with several hundred extremely receptive people. There was a special anointing of the Holy Spirit as I spoke on Psalm 102, The Holocaust Psalm. We were invited back in the spring for a prophecy conference. Thank you again for all your prayer support. Shalom in Yeshua ben Yahweh!   Les & Doreen

Topic # 1   Feast of Tabernacles!

Israel is now in the midst of celebrating the great feast of ingathering, called the Feast of Tabernacles. Christians look to this season as the probable time of the Messiah Yeshua returning. And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, Yahweh of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. Zech.14:16

The Sounding of the Shofar or trumpet signals the start to the fall feasts. The trumpet historically only sounded when the High Priest saw the new moon. If it was cloudy that night it was delayed daily until the moon was seen. Jews called it “the day that no man knows the day or the hour”. So when Jesus answered the question about his return with that  phrase, he was not speaking obscurely. He was actually being very specific to say He would return during the Feast of Tabernacles! Paul speaks of “the last trumpet” in 1 Cor. 15.  Go to http://www.visionheaven.com for live video streaming of the Christian Feast of Tabernacles in Israel from the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem Oct. 4-7. Enjoy!

Topic # 2   Three Overlooked Facts

ONE — Israel became a nation in 1312 BC, two thousand years before the rise of Islam.

TWO — Arab refugees in Israel began identifying themselves as part of a Palestinian people in 1967, two decades after the establishment of the modern State of Israel.

THREE — Since the Jewish conquest in 1272 BC, the Jews have had dominion over the land for one thousand years with a continuous presence in the land for the past 3,300 years.

And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, Yahweh of hosts, on them there will be no rain. If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain; they shall receive the plague with which Yahweh strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles. Zechariah 14:17-18

Our time on Martha’s Vineyard has been delightful and we are very grateful for the hospitality of our hosts, Tom & Janie McManus.

It has been a couple days since my last blog. We have been in marathon sessions at our Martha’s Vineyard retreat about 10 hours a day. We had a wonderful time of personal ministry where the Lord had me impart the “sword” to each one in the group. I declared Psalm 1 and also shared the Biblical basis for our Elisha Vision. Jansen continued on Kingdom economics and Janie McManus shared an awesome vision of the living structure and interrelationships of the Lord’s Prayer to the gifts and fruit of the Holy Spirit. These were keyed to the colors of the rainbow and geometric 3-D shapes. My final teaching was on the glory of Yahweh imparted to us from Isaiah 60.

Today we spent much of the day in heavy duty teaching and sharing on Kingdom economics contrasted with the world system. Jansen Barfield spoke from his expertise in banking and the economy. He shared Parts 1 & 2 today with Part 3 tomorrow morning.

My sharing was on the Feast of Trumpets and the Prophetic Shape of Church History. We rejoiced in the glorious anticipation of the soon return of our Lord and Savior, Yeshua ben Yahweh!

What a wonderful time we had tonight with Pastor Favio and Valeria Soares and his Brazilian church family. The worship was great and their hospitality was much appreciated. The church received the message of God’s timing for Martha’s Vineyard and their place in ministry. We shared from Psalm 102, the holocaust Psalm, how God’s favor on Israel is for the Day of Yahweh! Jesus is coming back soon. This is the last generation. What a day to be alive and active in the prophetic plan of the ages!

“Do you not say, ‘Four months more and then the harvest’?
I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.” John 4:35

Today we had a great tour of the island visiting several lighthouses and countless chamber of commerce scenic views of the ocean and cliffs and ponds and sheep and towns. We visited the area called Christiantown, which was originally called God Town and was populated in 1660 by a tribe of Indians who were Christian believers and were known as “the praying Indians”! We spoke a blessing over the deep roots of Jesus in the island.

Later, we visited the Chappaquiddick area and spoke the prophetic word that the prinicipality over Martha’s Vineyard has been removed! The island is now entering a new season of an open heaven.

The highlight of the day was our last stop at the old campmeeting grounds at Oak Bluffs. I am standing in front of the Tabernacle that was dedicated in 1879. The sign says: “Surely the presence of God is in this place.” God spoke to me 15 years ago on my first visit here that He has preserved this place for the Last Days Revival! We worshiped and I sounded the shofar multiple times and in many patterns and tones as a prophetic announcement of the new season. I also spoke in Hebrew: Bo ruach hakodesh Yahweh! The translation is: Come Holy Spirit of Yahweh! May it be done according to His word.

Had supper yesterday at the Blue Colony Diner near Danbury, CT. (for Tom & Donna).

Arrived at Martha’s Vineyard today on an earlier ferry that went to Oak Bluffs instead of Vineyard Haven. We took that as a God thing since we have such a word for the old preserved 19th century campground there. We circled it twice and declared that Yahweh has preserved it for the last day revival!

We ended the day with a campfire on the beach with our retreat folks and my very first smores! Yummy! God is so good.

Topic # 1   The Squeeze On Israel Is Coming!

Stay tuned the next two weeks! There is a confluence of serious factors leading to big trouble for Israel. President Obama will be meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Abbas in New York around the UN gathering. Iran says they will talk but not about their nukes. The US now admits that Iran could have a bomb by February. Israel will have to attack before then, but after the UN meetings. Many experts believe the US is setting a trap for Israel at the UN to extract extraordinary concessions under world pressure.

Pray especially for PM Benjamin Netanyahu to listen to Yahweh and have the courage to say “NO” to pressure.

“Why do the nations rage, And the people plot a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, And the rulers take counsel together, Against Yahweh and against His Anointed.“ Psalm 2:1-2

Topic # 2   Quid But No Quo!

Cal Thomas got it right! In his September 9 Jewish World Review column, Cal made a great point:
“The Latin phrase “quid pro quo” means “something for something.” Israel has given lots of quid, but has received little quo. The Obama administration is again pressing Israel to stop building homes on its historic territory.”

He concludes his article with the following statement: “Arab and Muslim nations, having started five wars, might go for number six if they believe they can win the next one. Only a fool would believe otherwise, given their repeatedly stated intentions and behavior. In the Middle East and in Washington, there is a surplus of fools.”

“You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them to pieces like a potter’s vessel.’ Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve Yahweh with fear, And rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way, When His wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.” Psalm 2:9-12

Topic # 1   UK Honor Killings Now One Per Month!

This Thursday, Sept. 3, a Florida Circuit Court will rule on the case of a 17 year old former Muslim girl, who says her family from Ohio will kill her within one week if she is sent home to their custody. Her name is Rifqa Bary and says: “If they love Allah more than me, they have to kill me…I am the first person in my family who has come to know Jesus; can you imagine what an ‘honor’ it would be for them to kill me? .. It’s written in the Koran; if I go back, I would be dead within a week. There are hundreds of such cases; I’m only one of them.” Pray for Rifqa the next 36 life or death hours! Her parents have reportedly rushed to sell out their businesses to be able to flee the country if Rifqa is returned to them.    PRAY! Rifqa Bary in her own words!                  Click here for video interview link.

“Keep me…from the wicked who assail me, from my mortal enemies, who surround me. They close up their callous hearts, and their mouths speak with arrogance. They have tracked me down, they now surround me” Ps. 17:8-11

September 3 update: The Florida Court has ruled for her to stay in Florida for now.

Topic # 2   Only 4% Israeli Jews See Obama As Pro-Israel

The number of Israelis who see President Obama’s policies as pro-Israel has fallen to 4%, down from 6% in June, according to a Smith Research poll taken last week. Fifty-one percent of Jewish Israelis consider Obama’s administration more pro-Palestinian than pro-Israel, while 35% consider it neutral and 10% declined to express an opinion. The same poll in May showed 31% of Israeli Jews found Obama pro-Israel, compared to 88% considering the Bush administration to be pro-Israel. That is a drop of 31 points for Obama since June. (J.Post)

This represents a major shift in U.S. policy towards our greatest friend in the Middle East. Strange things are afoot at the White House and the State Department. As we pray for our country we must remember this unconditional promise to Israel from Yahweh; God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.     I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed. Genesis 12:3

WATCH AND PRAY!

Topic # 1   Keeping Score:  Lies 9  —  Truth 0

How ironic that Bethlehem, the birthplace of the Messiah of Truth, should host the first Fatah Conference in 20 years in the bondage of demonic deception and lies. Emboldened by Pres. Obama’s new appeasement policy for the Muslim world, Fatah increased and hardened its demands.

A quick list:

1. Demanded ALL of Jerusalem BEFORE any negotiations will begin. This is the first time for this demand.

2. Demanded all Jews be expelled from Judea and Samaria (the West Bank).

3. Demanded millions of foreign born Arabs be moved inside Israel, thus becoming the majority in Israel (yet the new Palestinian state will be free of any Jews. See #2).

4. Demanded Israel withdraw to 1949 lines.

5. Endorsed terrorism as legitimate “resistance”.

6. Demanded all terrorists be released from Israeli prisons.

7. Embraced Aksa Martyrs Brigade as members of Fatah.

8. Approved alliance with Iran.

9. Officially voted to blame Israel for Yasser Arafat’s death.

The Bethlehem Fatah Conference unmasked the so-called moderates. They are as committed as ever to driving Israel into the sea. Their maps, textbooks and uniform patches show the map of Israel as only a Palestinian state. We better wake up and smell the coffee. God still blesses those who bless Israel and curses those who curse Israel! For more on this see the Caroline Click 8-14-09 column, “Fatah’s Message” :  www.carolineglick.com

Topic # 2   Taliban Threatens to Chop Off Voters Fingers.

Afghan election: “We will know those who cast a vote from the ink, and his finger will be cut off,” a commander warned villagers in the south of the country, the New York Times reported. —- YAHWEH HAVE MERCY!

The ruthless will vanish, the mockers will disappear, and all who have an eye for evil will be cut down. Isaiah 29:20

But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.

Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Matthew 12:25 & 34.

The Ark of the Covenant

ISRAEL E-CARD    Volume 3 Issue 14  July 15, 2009

Topic # 1   The Ark of God’s Presence

There is much confusion about holiness. The dead church always makes holiness a condition which can be obtained by outward actions. They make rules about clothes and hair and behavior in order to make one “holy”. However, only God is holy and holiness is not a behavior, it is a Person. It certainly affects our behavior, but comes from the encounter with the presence of God. His holiness will either kill us or change us. It is Jesus who makes us holy as a result of faith in His shed blood as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.

My dear friend, Pam Raymond, had a spiritual experience of heaven which left her with the conclusion: “I never knew how holy God is!” How much time do we spend in His presence? Holiness is not what we do, but Who He is! Dear heavenly Father, please come and visit us, touch us with your nature. You alone are holy and we desire you every moment.

Topic # 2   Max Lucado On the Name of Yahweh

You want to know who God really is?… Then read this, And [David] writes the name Yahweh.  “Yahweh is my shepherd.”  Though foreign to us, the name was rich to David. So rich, in fact, that David chose Yahweh over El Shaddai (God Almighty), El Elyon (God Most High), and El Olam (God the Everlasting)…Many other titles for God were at David’s disposal. But when he considered all the options, David chose Yahweh.

Why Yahweh? Because Yahweh is God’s name. You can call me preacher or writer or half-baked golfer – these are accurate descriptions, but these aren’t my name…If you want to call me by my name, say Max…And if you want to call God by his name, say Yahweh.                     Max Lucado

And there I have made a place for the ark, in which is the covenant of Yahweh which He made with our fathers, when He brought them out of the land of Egypt. Then Solomon stood before the altar of Yahweh in the presence of all the assembly of Israel, and spread out his hands toward heaven; and he said: “Yahweh God of Israel, there is no God in heaven above or on earth below like You, who keep Your covenant and mercy with Your servants who walk before You with all their hearts.     1 Kings 8:21-23

Topic # 1   Israel Fed Up With US Settlement Demands

A senior Israeli government official on Monday said Jerusalem is “fed up” with the Obama Administration’s exaggerated focus on the construction of Jewish homes in Judea, Samaria and eastern Jerusalem. US President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton have become almost hostile when demanding that Israel halt the growth of Jewish neighborhoods in any areas claimed by the Palestinians. Israeli PM Netanyahu responded by saying you cannot simply freeze the normal flow of life in Jewish neighborhoods that have been established for decades. (Israel Today) “Like one who seizes a dog by the ears is a passer-by who meddles in a quarrel not his own.” Prov. 26:17

The United States, the last holdout, has joined the rest of the world in demanding that Israel stop all building and growth in Judea and Samaria; a demand that extends to east Jerusalem.  Now ALL the nations of the world are shouting to Israel with one voice: “Get out of the Land!” or “Divide the Land!” The fulfillment of Joel 3:2 is imminent. (John Fisk)

I (YAHWEH) will gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.  Joel 3:2

Topic # 2   Sarkozy: Burqas Not Welcome In France

French President Nicolas Sarkozy lashed out Monday at the practice of wearing the Muslim burqa, insisting the full-body religious gown is a sign of the “debasement” of women. “In our country, we cannot accept that women be prisoners behind a screen, cut off from all social life, deprived of all identity,” Sarkozy said. “The burqa is not a religious sign, it’s a sign of subservience. I want to say it solemnly,” he continued, “it will not be welcome on the territory of the French Republic.” (Jerusalem Post)

Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you…For I am Yahweh your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I gave Egypt for your ransom…Since you were precious in My sight, you have been honored, and I have loved you; therefore I will give men for you, and people for your life. Fear not, for I am with you…           Isaiah 43:1-5a

Topic # 1   Escape Or Purpose?

What are we to do when trouble comes? Are we now entering into global judgment and even tribulation? Our first thought is escape, but Jesus had a different mindset. As He contemplated His imminent death, He faced that choice and won! Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? But for this purpose I came to this hour. Father, glorify Your name. John 12:27-28a.

Yeshua knew His purpose was to glorify the Father. In purpose, death was not an option but required. Purpose is what gave Him direction and the same is true for us. Even as Esther came to the Kingdom “for such a time as this”, so we must know our purpose, our “reason to live”.

Topic # 2   The Answer of Yahweh

Then a voice came from heaven, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.” John 12:28

When Yeshua stood firm on His purpose, an amazing thing happened. Yahweh spoke in an audible voice that was heard by those gathered! He declared that He had glorified His name in the past and He would again in the future. What we have missed in this verse is the prophetic purpose. Jesus lived and died and rose to bring us to the Father! If we relate only to Jesus, we will miss the purpose He came!

There has not been a day since His earthly ministry that the NAME of the Father needed to be known like today. His name is YAHWEH! It is not buddha, allah, or any other god. There is no god like our God! He is the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He is the living, Creator God. I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, ‘My counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.’ Is. 46:9-10

Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Yahweh, to the glory of God the Father. Philippians 2:9-11 (Also see Is. 45:23 and 1 Cor. 15:24-28)

Topic # 1   Why Are the Jews Still Here?

It is hard for anyone to understand the survival of the Jewish people. This miracle is not lost on any thoughtful man. I believe that Jews and all those who know the history of the Jews must pause to ponder the very existence of the Jewish people.  It seems to me, only the disingenuous could say in their hearts there is no God.  It would appear easy to go from the apparent conclusion that there is a God to seek for the God who had caused such an improbable outcome for a group of people He calls His own.  Consider Mal 3:6 which says: “For I am Yahweh, I change not; therefore you sons of Jacob are not consumed”

It is intuitive to take from these facts and this verse this conclusion:  The Jews are not consumed, therefore Yahweh exists. Thus, it is ignorant and arrogant to think that what God has said about the outcome of the Jews with respect to the land of Israel is not true. Yet, the whole world ignores the fact that Yahweh does not change. They march, as prophetically predicted, to the valley of decision (isn’t that some where near Zion?).  They seem not only to deny God, they appear determined to go to war with Him. They collectively drink a cup of lunacy. (Editorial by John Fisk)

Topic # 2   Arab Citizens of Israel?

What is the future for the Israeli Arabs? While Muslim countries do not allow Jews, or treat them as second class, Israel has 1.5 million Arab citizens. Jeremiah tells their future: Thus says Yahweh: “Against all My evil neighbors who touch the inheritance which I have caused My people Israel to inherit–behold, I will pluck them out of their land and pluck out the house of Judah from among them. Then it shall be, after I have plucked them out, that I will return and have compassion on them and bring them back, everyone to his heritage and everyone to his land. And it shall be, if they will learn carefully the ways of My people, to swear by My name, ‘As Yahweh lives,’ as they taught My people to swear by Baal, then they shall be established in the midst of My people. But if they do not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation, says Yahweh. Jeremiah 12:14-17

Topic # 1   Call To Prophetic Intercession

Today, we await the Monday meeting of Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Obama in Washington, DC. My prayer is for mercy on the President, because he seems determined to make a sharp left turn from the set purpose of Yahweh. It is not the Prime Minister or Israel that is being weighed in the balances, but the United States. There is now an incredible acceleration of prophetic timing. God is already in His “set time” (Ps.102) to favor Zion.

Israel’s destiny is sure, but what about America? The next few days will go a long way in that determination, depending on how we treat Israel, the apple of Yahweh’s eye. Intercede, not according to our hopes or wishes, but in agreement with the prophetic will of Him Who knows the end from the beginning. Pray that PM Netanyahu will listen to the God of Israel and not fear man. “Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in Yahweh is kept safe.” Prov. 29:25

Topic # 2   What Part of “No other gods” Don’t You Get?

How long will this be in the heart of the prophets who prophesy lies? Indeed they are prophets of the deceit of their own heart, who try to make My people forget My name by their dreams which everyone tells his neighbor, as their fathers forgot my name for Baal. Jer. 23:26-27 Don’t be deceived. We are under an unprecedented direct attack by the ancient Baal gods led by the pagan god of Islam. People have forgotten the name of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. His name is Yahweh (or Jehovah) and He is the Father of all creation. He has a son, Yeshua ben Yahweh (or Jesus, Son of God) whose name is above every other name! Allah has no son and is not a father!

“And it shall be, in that day,” Says Yahweh, “You will call Me ‘My Husband,’ And no longer call Me ‘My Master,’ For I will take from her mouth the names of the Baals, And they shall be remembered by their name no more.” Hosea 2:16-17“              Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.”            1 Jn. 2:22

Topic # 1   Flu Pandemic!

Today, the world is fearing the flu. Yet, we know that pestilence is one more in the list of end time events including wars, famine, earthquakes, economic collapse and fear itself. “men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” Luke 21:26 We have spoken for years about living by faith. Now is the time!

Topic # 2   Pakistani Link to Mexico Flu Deaths?

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN’s chief medical correspondent, who turned down the invitation to be U.S. Surgeon General, was interviewed live last Sunday (4:10pm Eastern)  when he first arrived in Mexico City. He spoke of the first death in Mexico: “The first case was a man visiting from Pakistan who came here, was treated for about two weeks for what they thought was a stomach virus. It ended up being the swine flu and he did not survive that.” Could this have been a biological terror attack? Why is the first death a visitor from another part of the world? The timing is also amazing. If he was treated for two weeks, then he was there well ahead of Pres. Obama’s Mexico City visit.

Topic # 3   Prime Minister Netanyahu on: Two States

“The entire international community demands that we recognize the principle of two states for two peoples, and we are discovering that this is two states not for two peoples but two states for one people, or two states for a people-and-a-half. That is to say, there is no doubt that we are being asked to recognize the Palestinian state as the national state for the Palestinian people, but there is doubt—and not just doubt; it is clear that the Palestinians have no intention of recognizing the national state of the Jewish people. Of course, this is completely unacceptable.” (April 20 weekly Cabinet Meeting)

“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of YAHWEH, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowlerand from the perilous pestilence.”Psalm 91:1-3
