Easter is just Ishtar's Day with Nice Seeming Propaganda
Image is if you saw how "Easter" (the celebration of Ishtar) was actually practiced in the time of the Old Testament.
Ishtar's day is as pagan and dark as it gets. A fertility ritual with a big orgy and eggs dyed in menstrual blood, then deliberately confused/misrepresented to people by the Roman Catholic control system. The pagan belief system (as taught to them by their gods, the fallen angels such as Ishtar) was to get as LEWD as possible -- to be erotic to the fallen angels and turn them on sexually so their sky gods (the Rephaim in the BIble) would RAIN and impregnate the female ground to bring forth crops. Paganism sexualized everything, including the very weather itself. The orgy also brought forth "fruit" of illegitimate children in every town to be later sacrificed to Molech, once born.
This is Paganism 101 that the church rarely knows or teaches, but was obvious to those (did not need to be explained) in the Old Testament days as they saw it going on around them in the hybridized nations/ethnicities, going all the way back to the reptilian in the Garden of Eden.
The fallen angels have always CRAVED human sacrifice in their "honor", and thus paganism weaponizes the need for crops against them to deceive them into unwanted babies for the Molech sacrificial system. The deceived people bought into these pagan practices - the deception worked - and were trying to eat and survive, but satan inverts it into more and more death. There is no good intention a person has (in this case crops to eat) that is not INVERTED by evil to be dead babies for the fallen angels to spiritually devour instead.
Matthew 19:26 NLT 26 Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.”
Identity
If you are in Jesus Christ - Yeshua the Messiah, the Lamb of God - then there is NO condemnation. Yes, you may fail and fall, you may even cooperate with lies of the enemy that have you behave in DEGRADED ways (harming self and others), but your ACCEPTANCE, your full Acceptance is in the FULL, the COMPLETE Aeonement of the Blood of Jesus. You have DRAWN NEAR in faith to Messiah, who chose you first, but you have deliberatly and consciously CHOSEN Him back. Chosen to be in a COVENANT category of relationship with Him - He who is Faithful and True. We fall short; He NEVER falls' short. He gives GRACE precisely because we fall short.
Messiah Jesus SEES the end from the benning. he relates to us according to our ACTUAL (and everlasting) identity - who we are IN HIM. The New testament uses the words "IN CHRIST" over 100 times. That is because it is ALL about whose we are. He is faithful and true to COMPLETE the work of sanctification as we cooperate with Him (are led by him, keep in step with him, abide in the vine, hear his voice like a member of the sheepfol, etc. the Bible says this core fact so many ways).
He SEES all your future failures. Father God CHOSE us IN Christ Jesus. Thus when and as we are IN Messiah (Christ), we are in the state of Grace. We choose FAITH in who we are in Christ, and whose we are in Christ. Our IDENTITY is everything. So much larger than our performance in the moment.
He has chosen you and will REINFORCE the fact of who you are in Him - clothed in robes of HIS righteousness. We don't perform religiously; instead we come into alignment (by faith) of who we AREADY are in the BESTOWED righteousness, Messiah provides over us to the Glory and Will of Father God. Remember who you actually are. Your identity will likely be the MOST ATTACKED thing by the enemy in this life. We must remind ourselves of the truth in God's Word (both the written Word, and the ongoing spoken rhema Word).
For it is FROM THIS REALITY, this identity bestowed upon us, that we REBUKE and REVERSE every plan of the enemy to steal, kill, and destroy.
I believe the life of a Christian is always going to be open to scrutiny: be it your faith, your thoughts, your habits, your intellect, your kindness, your style, and your reasoning. Whether you initiate the scrutiny or not, your life will constantly be put under the microscope of man's opinions, and cultural stigmas.
Everything that is you, for Christ, will be scrutinized, and I find it's best to take humility and joy in that your life is evidential by your walk with Christ, and that you can appreciate how you can change and learn from your convictions, doubts, hypocrisies, stumbles, and temptations.
These are part of the surrender and endurance, that is proof of the Christ's work being perfected in you.
If you spent other people's money in ways they DID NOT ask for... you'd be in prison. If you ran up TRILLIONS in debt, you'd be in prison (at the very least).
AND YET, our government does these crimes against us.. CONSTANTLY. They lied that they serve and represent us. They FLEECE the sheep. Not protect or serve them. This is fraud and abuse, in other words it is Tyranny Galore (and about to get so much worse).
The EXEMPT themselves from all the laws they pass to burden and restrict our behaviors. Just like they exempted themselves from mask mandates on their scamdemic. We know them by their #Fruit.
Babylon (in all its forms) only has the capacity to BURDEN you. The ways of Babylon always cause BONDAGE. Jesus is the Savior and came to UNBURDEN you, and welcome you into God's loving and direct relationship::
Isaiah 58:6 “Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?
ALL THE MORE reason to Seek God's Kingdom instead and to appreciate God's Kingdom.
Matthew 20:25-26 and Mark 10:42-43: "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It is not this way among you..."
We operate from God's Grace and God's Truth and God's love to be agents of BLESSING and positive transformation, allowing God to move IN and THROUGH us to HIS glory.
Oh Lord, let those of us struggling with our faith, struggling to seek Your face, struggling to love you, struggling to set our affection on things above, struggling to keep the peace and assurance you have given us - Lord let us be delievered into your hands, not for judgement yet, but for endurance. To take true refuge in your Name.
Lord deliver us unto your righteousness and light, and let us not be bedded by hopelessness and darkness for any longer, but let us see you are there and have not left us nor removed your spirit before it is too late. Lord, deliver us to endure to the end. Even now, in this hour, in these times that are fierce, let us remember you, and who you are: above our own despair, our own suffering, our own selfishness, our own convenience in this world that hastens to war, to wickedness, to cruelty, and too cold heartedness.
Let us be delivered in seperation unto you. Let us not despise you by failing to love one another. Let us not cause you further sorrow by grieving your Spirit. Let us not be rejected by rejecting your Son. Lord, help us to endure, as the generation of saints now. Help us Lord to humility and salvation and sanctification, even as we are weak, we are hurt, and we are filthy from frustration and wrestling.
Oh Lord let the struggles we face and the trials promised to us, be the joy in your Lord, which is our strength. And to warm our hearts as a candle does to wax, to soften in the love we ought to pour on you with all our heart, all our strength, and all our soul, and to love our neighbour as ourselves. To be the helpers of your church, who are called to care for the widows you husband, the orphans you father, and the fatherless you discipline.
Lord let each of us be delivered into your hands rather than the devil's, for we repent to you, and desire not evil, but good, and are restless from the wickedness we see, we hear, and we face.
Oh Lord, Yours is the Only Name worthy and Holy, we call in need, in praise, in fear, and in repentance to.
Let us not shrink from your wisdom and judgement in heaven, let us anticipate on earth that your kingdom will come, and your will be done, and not one word shall fade away until it is fulfilled. Help us Lord to fulfill it, help your spirit be willing and prevail over our flesh.
As the Apostles had, as your Saints had, because your Son did greater as such for them, may we follow even if we stumble and fall, seven times more do we repent in motion rather than remain in remorse.
In Jesus name, Amen, Amen, Amen.
blessed are the pure in heart
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” Matthew 5:8 NKJV
Purity of heart isn’t about outward appearance, it’s about inward cleansing. It’s when God removes the hidden corruption that clouds judgment and distorts spiritual sight. Purity is the work of the Spirit removing pride, lust, selfish ambition, and divided loyalties so that Christ’s character can be reflected through your life.
Scripture warns us about the impurities that compete for control. “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world” (1 John 2v16 NKJV). These distractions pull the heart in multiple directions and create spiritual confusion. A divided heart produces a divided life. When motives are mixed, obedience becomes inconsistent and faith loses clarity.
Purity calls for integrity. It calls for the alignment of your thoughts, your words, and your actions with God’s truth. Integrity means your public faith matches your private devotion. It means you live by the same standard regardless of who is watching. Jesus spoke plainly about this. “No one can serve two masters” (Matthew 6v24 NKJV). You can’t fully belong to God while secretly surrendering to competing loyalties.
The blessing attached to purity is vision. The pure in heart see God. They recognize His hand in Scripture, His movement in history, and His presence in daily life. They see God in seasons of joy and in seasons of testing. “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded” (James 4:8 NKJV). As the heart is cleansed, spiritual awareness becomes sharper and deeper.
Purity isn’t achieved by human effort alone, it’s formed through surrender and sustained by grace. David prayed this prayer that still carries power today. “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me” (Psalm 51:10 NKJV). God honors a heart that desires to be made right and made whole. So guard your heart, examine your motives and surrender every hidden place to the Spirit’s cleansing work. Because when your heart becomes pure, your vision becomes clear. And when your vision becomes clear, you begin to see God moving, speaking, and guiding in ways you never recognized before.
The devil says your main need is for material security and physical pleasure. That blessing best takes the form of a POSH life.
The Most High God says your core need is to connect to Him, life itself, and that the highest blessing is to have a heart like His own heart.
Material prosperityis thus something you can take or leave, it is a nice option, but not essential. It is not your ambition. Instead a passionate pursuit of your creator -- knowing His ways and aligning with them is a MEANS TO know His heart better. Closeness is the best thing of all. Intimacy, like being so nestled up close that you are "under His wings" or "in the shadow of His wings" are a couple of the meany ways the Bible puts it.
You are not here to be the slave of every physical urge. instead you are to be in alignment, in meaningful partnership with God Himself, SO CLOSE tthat you are "yoked" to Him, (Matthew 19) like to oxen about to plow a field - working at something essential, RIGHT AT God's own side -- so close that every step must match God's step.
God meant you to be FILleD and overflowing with His own life. Like a vine plugged into the rich root, the life fLOWS into the branch of the vine (yourself in core connection to God) and the good tings that people can see and that others benefit from is the NATURAL BYPRODUCT of connection to God's own life. (John 15)
God is not waiting for you to be flawless before He loves and accepts you. He knows every weakness and every struggle and still welcomes you as His own. He works on you little by little, and now it is your turn to agree with Him and stop rejecting yourself.
