Amen pastor Jimmy. I love the scriptures from Zephaniah. God sure has made this country girl happy the last little bit. For the first time in years, my son brought his wife and my 2 grand babies to church. We had such a wonderful service. My son stood boldly in front of the church and apologized to everyone and he received confirmation from God where his younger brother went. He blamed himself for his brother's death although he wasn't with him when he was killed. He blamed himself for not witnessing to him before his death. God is surely answering prayers on my behalf for my dear family. My heart is full today. What an honor it is, to be in church with our children. Thank you pastor Jimmy, and all of those who are willing to get on their knees and send up prayers on our behalf. Love all of you.
Hala, what an amazing testimony surrounding a tragedy. It shouts of the love and goodness of God in the midst of a heart breaking event. Your comment has touched my heart this morning. Even in the worst of our earthly experiences, God lifts us up and does we can’t do our own. Thank you for being so transparent. This so encouraged me. May God bless you for your love of your family and your brothers and sisters in Christ. Lord, bless my sister and family like only You can. In Jesus name, Amen!
Jesus wants to save every last one before the Tribulation.
How awesome! How wonderful!
2 Peter 3:9 ESV
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
Oh precious Hala, how my heart rejoices with yours!!!! I can’t imagine a better way to celebrate your Sunday!!!! Have a wonderful day!!! Love those little ones, I pray ALL OF US that have lost family can join you in praise reports very soon!!!
Oh dear Glee, each one of you who have wayward children or have children who are lost, get ready. Our prayers are not in vain!!! Thank you all so much for every prayer that you have lifted on behalf of my children. May God bless each one of you one hundred fold. Love you Glee and each one of you....
Hala, we are witnessing pure revival in your family!! This will flow generations of believers growing out of the pain from your story. I'm amazing every time you update us on your family, there's been another major miracle!! Love you sister.... we'll keep praying. Any new requests we can cover you?
You know, Kari, God is answering prayers that my pastor, brother has prayed also, the one who recently lost his wife to cancer. Not really lost, but she was carried home by angels. We have had several members who weren't coming to church for years. Now my oldest brother, Doug is back. Another dear friend who just found out that he has kidney cancer. He's back, and another cousin who has brain, liver, and lung cancer. He's back. I think what God is doing, is calling the lost sheep in, because he is coming to get us. He is getting all, ready for departure!!! So awesome to see what God is doing. We are praying for a heart felt revival such as what took place at Asbury. God is able.
You were obedient to God's calling and went to Asbury.... it's still going on in the hearts & your family. Your family's health is going thru so much pain, but it's bringing your loved ones back to Jesus. Praying for healing bodies & hearts.
Just for my Tierra. I sent her a private message yesterday and told her that I don't know where she stands with the Lord, but she had better be praying hard. I told her that time as we know it, is running out. I also told her that I want her to go to heaven with me and that I don't want her to be left behind. She put a heart emoji on the post. Just keep praying for her. God has answered so many of my prayers. Also in our little church, God is sending young people who are lost, who have been either giving their hands for prayer, or are praying at the altar. Pray that God sends that deep Godly sorrow that truly convicts their hearts that they truly repent and are saved. They all know that we are in the end of days. Thank You Kari for asking. I love you sister!
Our children are His before they are ours. In His time and in His way He draws them with cords of love and with the spirit of adoption making them the children of the Most High God! Hallelujah!
Carol I believe Mothers prayers are so powerful. Must keep praying for your children. God will move heaven and earth to reach them . When we are born we are in what I call the Adam's family. We need to tranfer our heart our lives our faith to Gods family. John's gospel says to all who received him Jesus he gave the right to become children of God and thoses who believed in his name. We are not children of God until we receive Jesus. We need to ask the Lord to forgive us of our sins . Then we are born again come alive being filled with his Holy Spirit. We leave Adam's family and become joint heirs with Christ in God's family. You probably know all this but I waS just feeling a move from. the Lord to share this with you. That is why Jesus is the only way to the father. We can't get to God through Adam . His relation with God is severed. We need Jesus Bible calls him the second Adam. In Christ we are perfect. God does not see our sins he sees Jesus. Keep on keeping on in prayer . God will move in their hearts and lives. Until they are born a gain changed into the image of God . God confirms in our hearts that we are his Children. Our new desires is to please him . Not for salvation but because of salvation.
As a mom, I start each day and end each day ( and sometimes midnight prayers) for my adult children. 🙏 I'm so thankful that God has a huge heart for this mother's pleas to him.
Yes. He hears. A friend of mine got saved because of his mother's faithfullness and prayers. He is a musician and electrician started a Christian blue grass group . He wrote a song Mama Prayed. You can hear it on You Tube group is The Rockdale Boys. There is a girl bass player in the group. The blonde guy Mark is my good friend and brother in the Lord.
Yes David P., mother's prayers are so powerful because she is in God's perfect will! She is praying upward and Jesus seated next to our Heavenly Father is praying downward and there is warfare in the heavenlies for their souls! Our prayers of intercession for our sons and daughters will one day be prayers of thanksgiving! Eyes off our children as we look fully to our Savior and one day theirs!
BLESSED IS SHE WHO BELIEVED THERE WOULD BE A FULFILLMENT OF THAT WHICH WAS SPOKEN TO HER OF THE LORD.
My daughter Hannah just told me about a special app "Easter Now" you can get to follow the last steps of Jesus this entire week. Hour by hour they help us track his steps with interesting facts. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/easter-now/id1210527891
Kari, what a blessing your family is. May God bless and protect each one of your children. It is so good to see our children involved in church and outreaches. Love you.
“Repeatedly, he describes feelings of terror and torment that he is eternally damned—with no hope of salvation.”
Yep. Pretty much sums it up for me. What a timely and reassuring message; not so much in the reassuring, but in the knowledge that even men such as John Bunyan suffered under the same spiritual maladies as a commoner like me does, sometimes.
Ironically, years ago God met me in what seems to be a similar manner to Mr. Bunyan. I had failed so many times with an addiction to pornography, that I was convinced I could not possibly belong to God. So I fell on my face and told him “God, if I really belong to you, you will have to prove it; because I don’t believe that I do”.
The next day in church service, it was just like any other, until I went to the altar. I prayed and felt nothing. Then, I felt a hand on my back. A man began to speak these words out of Isaiah 43:1-2.
“But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel:
“Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by your name;
You are Mine.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you. (Isaiah 43:1-2)
It’s tough to describe what happened next. If any of you have ever been in the ocean while massive waves are crashing down, and you’re taken under and tossed about like a rag in a washing machine, it was like that, except the water and forces were pure love and indescribable bliss. For the first time in my entire life, I felt completely cleansed. I knew I was forgiven. I sobbed so hard I couldn’t catch my breath; the joy was indescribable.
It’s tough to keep my composure even as I write this. So that was the stake in the ground for me with respect to belonging to God. Have i questioned my salvation since? Many times. Has God reassured me in my salvation since? Many times.
I guess it comes down to one question. Is Salvation an ticket or a Person? If salvation is a ticket; we may very well lose that ticket. If it’s a Person, and we are hidden within that Person, then that’s another matter entirely.
So thankful for this very timely message. So thankful that I can bank my eternity not on some fickle feelings or whims when I think I’m performing well, but on the surety of God’s promises. The only One who has never lied. The only one who keeps his promises despite ourselves. The only One worthy of our complete and total trust.
To the point of my post - it brought back, almost in very prophetic terms, the EXACT sentiment I had in a dream I had a few years back about the rapture. I think I’ve shared it here before — I was standing in a field (like a playground). I looked around and notice a group of children standing in a circle. They were holding hands singing worship songs. I began to walk towards them and then I noticed they were looking up. I looked up and saw what appeared to be a very small cloud against a bright blue sky. The cloud started to grow.
It was then that it looked as though I was looking through binoculars at this cloud and noticed that I could see a door open. The “cloud” was actually angels funneling through the door! Kind of like what you would see if you saw a massive crowd pouring out of an arena. It was then, I saw my wife - she was standing on a rooftop. I yelled at her “Daddy is back!!!.. as I ran, I began going up in the sky. All of the guilt, fear, shame and doubt just melted away and I yelled “I MADE IT!” I knew that all of the battles with doubting my salvation were OVER!. I saw two angels standing at the door. They did not acknowledge me. They were so somber and focused on those who were on earth - their faces stayed steadfastly on the people below me as they waved me into the door. It reminded me of what the angels must have looked like when they were ushering Lot out of Sodom and Gomorrah. VERY serious.
Anyways, when the article talked about the rapture finally putting all of the enemy’s attacks to rest about our salvation - it reminded me of this dream.
Oh my Steve…your testimony sure has blessed me. Thank you!!! Just seems like the storms of life are hitting hard. If I didn’t have our Heavenly Father as my anchor I would have been long gone. But strangely enough, I’m closer to HIM as never before!!! So thankful HE chose us!!!
You’re welcome sister. So happy whenever anything I have to share blesses someone. I agree with you about the storms hitting hard - I’ve been noticing that over the last few months; I believe that the enemy is working overtime trying to discourage and beat down the saints. Wading in the Word of God has really helped me to keep my focus where it belongs every day. Praying that God restores to you the joy of your salvation - that he mounts you up on eagle’s wings and brings rest and restoration to your soul. You are so dearly loved.
Esther, I didn't have time to respond to you about your post concerning your son sitting in that jail cell the other day. Just wanted to let you know how it touched my heart with pain, and gave me tears for both of you. You are not alone. Ive been praying for you and your son. I went through a similar situation with my son and remember feeling emotional and physical pain beyond belief. 💔 Theres a Danny Gokey song called "more than you think I am".
The lyrics are beautiful. It starts with how we always think of him (God) being on a mountaintop but he's also behind bars. He's always with us no matter where we are. So I visualize God sitting there watching over your son. I remember a week such as yours where I couldnt eat or even barely breathe getting through it. I handed my son over to "him" and visualized angels sitting and protecting him every minute he was behind bars. I hope this comforts you if even just a tad. Be strong snd know hes not in there going through this alone.My thoughts and prayers will remain with you my dear. Big hugs! 🤗🤗
Jessie…thank you for your kindness!!! I find myself sitting staring into space at nothing. Can’t shake the sadness. Your words lightens the load. We all understand how to bare one another burdens. This site has sure done that for me. Thank you again. I love you my friend:)
Oh Esther....I'd never wish bad things on anyone (well...occasionally my xhusband 😄) , but seriously though it does help to hear other people's burdens, doesn't it? It personally makes me feel like I'm not alone. And you are not alone 😊. We're all sending out support to each other whether we can see it or not. As mothers, we bear such a huge burden because their joys are our joys, but their problems ( big and small) weigh so heavily on our shoulders. The tears we've both shed could probably fill a swimming pool.My biggest joys and traumas have involved my children and the trials continue. But God will continue to be there for you and me until he finally comes to get us. You and your son will be in my thoughts and prayers. God's got this! May you feel his constant comfort and love for you. Hugs!!
Steven G I'm reading your testimony and tears are flowing. This is exactly WHY we share our stories. It moves our hearts.... it rejoices in your miracle, your healing, your transformation, your redemption. I hope you share your story often.... it's a heart mover for sure! I can't wait to meet you in heaven at the wedding supper.... God has some very special crowns and rewards for you. Have you read Mark Hitchcocks book, Heavenly Rewards? It will encourage you SO much in your walk with Jesus. He uses the broken and ordinary and turns everything to extraordinary. That is you brother, extraordinary. 🎺☁️🔜
I have not seen that book! I’ll definitely get it. Thank you for the encouraging words, I share that story on occasion when I feel like the Holy Spirit wants to use it to minister to someone; his love is truly beyond my comprehension. I don’t get it, but then again, I don’t need to 😃
Love you sister - have a wonderful Psalm Sunday. Cannot wait to give you and everyone else here a great big bear hug when I see you!!!
Oh Steven, how awesome is the salvation of the Lord. He places a seal on the inside of us when we are saved. Just as you will always be the natural child of your father, so we are the spiritual of our Father. No one can break that seal. For it came at a great price at Calvary. We are redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. Love your testimony. What a time we are all going to have, when we all reach homeland!!! You talk about a time of rejoicing... Love you brother.
What a precious post Hala - I cannot wait to see you all when Jesus returns for us. A time of rejoicing indeed. You are all such beautiful brothers and sisters… thank you for taking the time to respond ❤️
Wow what a share!!!! Thank you so much for sharing.
I read a book recently about the unshakeable assurance of the believer.... being saved is not about behavior modification!! Jesus could have done that without it costing him his life!!!!
He came to change us into Gods sons!!!! In our best 5 minutes we couldn’t do it, HE HAD TO DO IT FOR US!!!
God works differently in each person. I remember asking God (as I have many times) “WHY do I struggle so much in this ONE area. You changed everything else… why is this still here? How can possibly be saved?”
The Lord answered with this: “Do you enjoy your sin, like you used to? Do you cry when you know you’ve fallen short? Why does it grieve you so? Did it ever grieve you before? Did you ever CARE about what I thought about anything before you came to know me? Why do you care now?”
The answer was obvious. I had a new nature.
I’ve learned so much since then. I never stop learning. I began to be grateful for the struggles that kept me humble and pressing into him.
My grandfather used to say, only Almighty God in His Three Persons knows it all. Humankind is strongest when humbly acknowledging our weakness and surrendered fully in Christ Jesus.
Wow Steven. Your testimony is so beautiful. Thank God you shared that with us!! Thank you!! What a bright shining light in a dark world. God bless you brother.
This was an amazing share and testimony to me Steven. I love this dream or vision that you shared, I feel like I was there watching this happen. Such a great article too. On a lot of these tough things, we get to feeling like we are the only ones thinking or feeling or struggling with these things. It is so good to feel normal and not alone with some of these struggles that feel like they shouldn’t be happening to people of faith or people that have been in the faith a long time. It hasn’t been too bad for me in a good while, but I struggled with those doubts and thoughts questioning salvation for many years. It was always very performance based. I even got thinking about some of those old thoughts today, at church. Thoughts about what it looks like descending in the earth down to hell or being forced to stay in the grave. Old lies. Like pastor Jimmy said, we have these intellectual connections and this faith to rely on but our old, fickle and unreliable hearts don’t always feel the same as what we know. This was a really timely and quality message today, reminding us of the truth that we have to look forward too. Your message and description was an awesome share.
Dear Justin, so well said. It seems like our uncertainty always goes back to Legalism, when in truth it’s just Grace, Grace, Gods Grace, Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt….beautiful 🎵 song 🎶
Good morning TP Family—that’s what we are, like-hearted people loving one another, praying, cheering, supporting and encouraging!! This weekend we had an unfortunate incident where a subscriber was physically threatening and using foul language…bullying members. 😔 They have been removed (banned) They will still receive TP posts & shows but will no longer be able to read or leave comments indefinitely. This behavior will never be tolerated on the Tipping Point. Y’all if you ever read a comment that is inappropriate (don’t engage🔥) instead, click on the three little dots … and you can report the end time staff. Lastly, we’ve worked hard to build a unique, special community and want to keep growing strong, honoring one another! TP is a global 🌍 community & filled with different views, different perspectives & unique gifts & talents—believers in the King of Kings! I’m grateful to be a part of this community💛 Love you
I agree with you Kari, but at this point I think we should go a step further and ask that if someone posts a political comment, please don't get into a major debate. It seems to turn ugly every time. End times bible prophecy is literally intertwined with everything. Religion, technology, government, schools, relationships are just some of them, so I understand that people will sometimes post comments not everyone agrees with. Let's humble ourselves and not add fuel to the fire. If there is a need to debate, please exchange contact information and take it outside of this platform. We really need to keep this a place where people feel comfortable with posting comments. I'm including myself in this as well. Satan wants us to fight. Let's not give him the satisfaction. Let's be kind. God bless you.
Agree… I think if we can all remember this is not a US blog/website this is TP global. We can disagree with honor & kindness. Our dear friends are from all over the world who are struggling under wicked government too. 💛💛🌍🙏 https://youtu.be/tIpxpjrInA8
We wouldn't be in the end of the end times if everything was wonderful. 😉 We need each other now more so than ever. Regardless of what country we live in, we are all experiencing similar circumstances as a believer in Christ. We need to continue to pray for each other and the people in our lives. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you dear Kari for reminding the TP community that we are from all over the world not just the US. Shout out to any other kiwis here. G’day to the Ozzie bros and sisters ❤️
I think that’s what I love most about the Tipping Point— this is a global community….a mission field. We can all learn from each other and have different perspectives wherever we live. I’m from Texas 🤠 (howdy pardner) but have had the great privilege of living in other countries! We have a big wide world and someday soon we will have a heavenly New Earth!
Hi Kari. I did not see or read the post. But you are right; God is a God of order and peace. 1st Corinthians 14:33. Not confusing. We love and uplift each other. Have a blessed Holy Week. Love. Always enjoy your comments.🙏
Gladys, I'm so grateful the comments are gone (poof:) and you didn't have to read the thread. The good news, we stand together even stronger and honoring one another with all our hearts. The time is near 🎺☁️🔜
There was only 1 bully and guess who lit his fuse... it was a short fuse and totally caught me off guard. Kari and Chris came to the rescue. :) PS Another lesson learned to steer clear of a certain topic.
Hi David, glad you are still here. You make big contributions and people love to track with you, and follow your fatherly heart. Yup, sometimes our buttons get pushed. Best to pull back a bit so we can all share the same space. I have to say that to the kids on my bus on a daily basis. We are all still learning.... 🌺
🚌 💨 yes — we all need a reminder that our buttons can get pushed. The “T” word will be a hot button this week. The whole world is watching. 👀 We are most certainly at a tipping point globally! Love y’all 💛
And speaking of school buses… I saw my surgeon this morning. He is recommending a full blown fusion on my back this summer. Looks like I will retire at the end of the year. I feel relieved. It has gotten harder and harder to work with this pain. Would prefer my new Heavenly body before they try to fix this one…. But all in His hands. He has the plan and aren’t we glad!! 🌺
I really value and enjoy your comments and responses David. Probably like a few members here, I wasn’t surprised you were the “fuse lighter”.. however I personally especially look for your comments. Not to give you a big head or anything 😁 GBU x
Hi Kari. There is a new comment by Fredwb asking how to cancel his TP account. Can you help him? I hope he is not leaving because of the negative comments.
Did Steve Branson quit TP? Do you have a way to reach out to him? Steve is such an big part of this TP family, I would not want to see him leave. Thanks, Maggie
Maggie, I found out TP Steve Branson community was walloped by the storms! He's been clearing debris with his tractor. Praying big for everyone involved in the storm.
Thanks Kari. These storms have been so devastating with the loss of lives and livelihoods. I pray for all of these people to have their needs met in every way possible. I pray that the ones who died from these storms are in heaven enjoying life with our Lord. GBU
I saw photos of the town of Sullivan and Steve took a photo of a little girl wearing only 1 shoe. It's like a war zone....There are no words. His family is good and home safe, but the area is devastated from tornadoes. He's Steve-O the hero on his tractor! I bet he'll come on soon and share
Ok thank you Maggie—I’ll try to find his comment. Please let him know he can email endtimes@xomarriage.com to take care of his subscription.
I promise Steve Branson didn’t quit TP!!! There were a few posts this weekend which makes it a little more challenging to stay on top of new posts & comments! I’m sure Tracy was keeping him busy in the garden 🪴 lol Love you! 💛
I don't have contact info, but I did find his comment and left the end times email for him. They'll take care of it. Yes, I reached out to him last week too. I think it's about paying monthly and asked him if I could help cover for a year of TP.
We got him set up for the next 12 months. :) I was able to reach out to him via email. Thanks again Maggie for letting me know.... big hearted Maggie to the rescue! 💛
Thanks Kari. He had sent a chart to a number of us not too long ago and I was able to find his email address. He sent me some pictures of the storm damage. Very devastating. Pray for everyone who was affected by those storms. Some lives were lost in the last storm and this one too. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amen! Another great word of encouragement pastor Evans. I too battle with doubt even with as much scripture I know. I remember hearing long ago that humans are leaky buckets this is why we need to re-read and hear and read and re-read over and over again and never stop praying. At my age and the beginning of my memory fading I feel my bucket is getting more holes!!!! God bless you tippers on this glorious palm Sunday.
This is for you and all of us who have holes in our bucket:
The Leaky Bucket
There was a young servant whose job it was to bring water from the well to his master’s chambers. Every day he would pick up a pole that had two buckets, one on either side, and rest it on his shoulders. And every day he would walk down the long cobblestone path to the well so he could fill the buckets with water.
On the left side of the pole the bucket was sturdy and strong. The bucket on his right side was rather shabby looking and had some cracks and a few small holes. Every time he would fill up these buckets and walk back up into the castle, the bucket with the holes would leak water. Little would be left when the servant reached the top of the hill. This caused the leaky bucket much distress.
One day the leaky bucket said to the servant, “You know, maybe it’s time that you replace me. I serve no purpose - every time you fill me up, I leak, and by the time you get to the top of the hill, there is very little water left for our Master. You must be so disappointed in me.” The perfect bucket said very proudly, “Not so with me. I hold all the water you draw and pour into me. Surely this pleases you.”
The servant put down the pole, looked at the buckets, and said, “My sound and sturdy bucket, I value you well and it does please me you carry water without spilling a drop." Then he said to the leaky bucket: "You know, it is a long walk between the castle and the well, and the path is steep on the way back. It certainly does get hot this time of day and the sun’s rays make the walk challenging. If it wasn’t for you leaking, my dear friend, then I would not have all these beautiful flowers to enjoy on the way. They brighten my day and make my load lighter. I am well pleased with your work, as well.”
The leaky bucket looked and realized it had never noticed the thick stands of vibrant flowers which lined the side of the path where it spilled its water on the return trip each day. It was amazed that what it had seen as failure was really a blessing which brought beauty and life to barren earth. It never again regretted its making or doubted it had purpose and in all the days of its service, the flowers continued to bloom.
That's good Carol! I never thought that when we leak the world gets the drops that leak out! Lord help me to leak out on the people who need it! Thank you Carol and God bless you today!
Amen Pastor Jimmy!!! And good Sunday morning to all tipsters!!!! Thank you for your super encouraging words today!! I just finished reading Clark Whitten’s book,
Pure Grace!!! AGAIN....it always leads me back to my assurance in Christ and my precious adoptions as his son!!!!
Nothing I have to work for just Pure Grace!!!!it’s indescribable!
Thanks Chris, everytime one of you mention that song, I tear up. Until about a month ago, I had never heard it. It is such a joy! God bless you Brother!
May the Lord... bless Mr. J. Evans and all the team of Tipping Point for all eternity... We as believers have a great blessing with T. Points... every time I feel confuse or with anxiety... T. Points is there for me... and by reading Mr. Evans explanations and encouraging articles... is like Jesus Himselve had taking the time to speak to me as a personal friend... Im a hispanic, USA ARMY veteran of a 30 years active dutty career, 1976 to 2005... Because of that it took many years to be convinced that God was real... and that I could be a soldier n a Chistian...How different my life would have been if Tipping Points were in my life then... Even if technology is so negative at times... Im glad I have it , because how else was I would here Mr. Evans and his team encouraging words...Fellow Christians, remember Luke 24:25 believe the profets, believe Jesus, dont be FOOLS... n look up your redemtion is very close...
Thank you Pastor Evans for this inspiring message. I struggle with this same issue from time to time. When I do I pray and all my fears and struggles disappear. Praise God for His mercy, grace and forgiveness.
All powerful, all consuming, never failing, never ending, LOVE; He poured out in overflowing abundance for all who will believe and receive the gift of His salvation. Wow, thank you all for your beautiful responses, so encouraging!
Thanks Pastor Jimmy. Exactly what I needed to hear on this Palm Sunday. It is so hard to remember we have the Blessed Hope to look forward to, when we are being bombarded daily from the enemy. Thank you for the reminder of how much we are loved by Him. We are heirs to the greatest King ever! Maranatha!
Pastor Jimmy I so needed your words today. Many years ago I asked the Holy Spirit to be a filter to dreams that visited me in my sleep each night. He has been faithful to do just that but last night was so very different. My dream was in three parts and caused great torment. I woke twice due to physical pain or the need to go to the bathroom. I was trembling and my breathing was labored. Each time I laid back down I fell quickly back to sleep and the dream continued right where it had left off. The dream was revealing all the hurt I had caused others by my sin. I saw it in their eyes, I heard it in their voices and I felt it as they looked away from me! I never had known what my sin had caused them and I wept bitterly. Was this dream in three parts conviction by the Holy Spirit or condemnation by the enemy of my soul? The sins were definitely mine and obviously the hurt and pain I caused others was real.
Forgive me Lord Jesus. At 80 years old most of those I wounded are no longer alive to ask their forgiveness. Those few that are
I will go to them.
TORMENT
Almost every believer has these moments at some point in their faith journey. I cannot count the number of people who have come to me, over the years, wondering if they are “really saved.” It is a very common torment.
The Lord your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. —Zephaniah 3:17
I LOVE this Ps. Jimmy! You always deliver just what I need to read or hear right when I need it!
Last month I mentioned that my husband and I both had the same dream at the same time. While he and I were both given an interpretation, we reached out to Kari's friend "S" who has nailed the interpretations to several of my past dreams. "S" received the interpretation yesterday and shared it with us. It is exactly what we had received. I am sharing this with you because it is an important warning to the Church and His Bride. Just as an FYI: my husband had a very troubled tummy that day and I didn't want to share in whatever was plaguing him so I grabbed my pillows and a blanket and slept on the sofa in the family room.
DREAMS:
Chris:
It was raining and my kids and I were in a building where each wall with a window was white and the non-window walls were black. While we were the only people in the building, it felt so….. empty, for lack of a better word. We were on the first floor and climbing stairs to the second when I saw a river of clear water rising outside the building. I hurried my kids upstairs but once up there realized we’d get trapped up there without some way to break through the roof. Our daughter started talking to my husband on the phone. I went back downstairs and looked at grabbing a hammer or axe to break through the roof, but when I looked out the window the water wasn’t very high and it was completely calm. I told my kids we were wading through the water to reach higher ground. I remember hearing my husband say to my daughter on the phone we would drown if we tried to wade through the current but I told him we’d be fine. We were then standing outside a chapel. We walked up the steps and stepped inside the sanctuary. There was a very large video screen across the back wall and a preacher on the video was telling the smattering of people in the church that the Rapture had occurred. They were crying, horrified, bewildered, and in shock. I was bewildered as to why I would have missed the Rapture, along with my kids. We stepped out of the church and poof! We were outta there. And then I woke up completely confused as to what that dream was and why I was on the sofa (forgot hubby hadn’t felt well and I didn’t want whatever he was plagued with).
My husband’s dream:
He was out running errands when it started raining really hard and the streets started flooding. He went inside a building that had black and white walls (like my dream). He looked out the window and noticed the floodwaters were rising and the water was very murky and nasty. He left the building in search of us and came upon a church. He walked up the steps and into the sanctuary. A preacher was at the pulpit telling the people in the church something but stopped when my husband walked in. The church was full and had people standing up in every available bit of space. Everyone turned to look at him when he walked in. The preacher and congregation started shouting angrily at him, asking him why he was there and to get out. He was shocked and immediately became offended at such behavior in a church. He said to heck with this and walked back outside to look for us and then woke up. Even after waking up he was highly offended at the unChrist-like behavior of the preacher and people in the church.
This is the interpretation a friend received from the Holy Spirit, which completely aligns with the interpretations my husband and I each received.
"Both dreams are from Me and of Me. They are a warning to My church. For My church is My bride, My 1st love. And yet I require holiness of My people, of My bride. I require a repentance and a renewal that comes from right living. One cannot walk in right living, in relationship with Me, without Me. And I see a church that is walked in a relationship that is not with Me. They are deceived about the things of God. For they are walking in the ways of man, not in My ways. And the deception will lead to a great loss in the last days. For I am coming for a pure bride, a righteous bride, a holy bride. And the church that has been tainted by the world, will not be prepared for My arrival. This is a warning. For the deception may look like it is in the form of many things, but the deception is the same. The enemy has blinded the bride to the things of man. The enemy has caused My bride to be numb to the things of Christ and no longer aware of what I have called you to - which is a life of holiness. And you are no longer walking in the light of My ways, but are stumbling in the dark unaware that you are walking in blindness. What is the enemy's deception in the church? You have lost your 1st love. Made many other things idols, your love. I am looking for a bride that loves Me with purity, righteousness and in complete devotion.
The days are dark and the church that will be My bride will require complete devolution to Me and My ways. There cannot be doubt, question or distraction. I am the light and without My light in your life, the darkness will prevail. But there is a pure bride that I will receive in the last days. Take heart. And the bride will be full. Full of My light and strength overflowing with My presence and grace. Filled with My righteousness and holiness filled by Me and for My glory. Stay near Me for I have overcome the world. I have overcome the darkness. And stay diligent in the church for I am sifting My church, I am searching for My bride. And there will come a day when the chosen bride will be made known by all who remain."
Thank you for sharing Mama Chris.... we are the church and Jesus bride. Jesus continues to give his sons & daughters dreams & visions.... He wants us to be ready. This is the perfect post to share too! We have the confidence in Jesus to know exactly where we will go if we die while on earth or raptured! 🎺☁️🔜
When I start having doubts as to whether the Rapture is really going to happen, I look around at the number of people who are having dreams about the Rapture. There’s just too many to doubt or pass off as a Biblical fairytale.
Wow Chris, thanks for sharing! My Soirit says YES to this interpretation. I love this gift. God is sooooo amazing!! Please pray for me this morning. I see my surgeon. Big decisions to make. Do I retire? Do I have surgery to fix this herniated disc? I can sense the Lord leading me but I need to know for sure. Thanks Chris! 🌺
Good morning Kris! You are so right - God IS amazing and so great! I am continually amazed at how He puts people in my life at the exact right moment. I was also shocked yesterday when I looked at the website I created to anonymously post the dreams I’ve been given and the views went from 20ish to over 500. People see what’s going on in the world and have started searching. I’m praying that by me sucking up my fear and trepidation and sharing these dreams with the world, it’ll help drive the floundering and lost to Jesus.
I also have several herniated discs and understand your pain quite well. I’m covering you in prayer as you visit with your doctor and determine your best course of treatment. One of my brothers just had surgery to fix an issue with his back and he’s having a remarkably wonderful recovery while I’ve made it over 30 years avoiding surgery. There’s no right or wrong, just what’s best for your situation. I will be praying for the Lord to make your choice very clear and for you to be completely at peace with whatever decision is made. Much love to you! ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m so sorry Kris & Chris both amazing women of God both suffering from this pain from herniated discs! Praying over you today for complete healing. Kris also praying for your Dr appointment today for the Holy Spirit’s wisdom & guidance! 💛 Please keep us updated
Thanks Kari and Chris! Today was amazing!! So much answered prayer and hope! My Doc said we should move forward with surgery. I sensed a real peace as we talked about it and will Trust the Lord to direct my path. Thankyou for your prayers, I will keep you posted. I’m going to try and finish out the year at work, and shoot for early summer for the surgery. John can work from home for a few weeks as I recover.... All in God’s hands. He is my strong tower!! 🌺
That’s wonderful news, Kris! I know some people would think having surgery isn’t good but being able to repair the disc damage so you can move without pain is a huge blessing. Please keep us posted so we can pray for all your needs on this journey. ❤️🙏🏻
Hello - I have the website and I created pages on Instagram and Facebook. I’m kind of terrible at running those pages and need to start developing them. I’ve included all 3. The website is: www.theanonymousvoice.com
I pray that I'm there before you. I will tell Jesus. I look forward to meeting you all when the trumpet blasts. Until then my prayers are with all of you too. Yours in Christ Jesus.
Hi ya’ll, Pilgrim’s Progress that’s us!! Palm Sunday today, and an old fashion potluck after Church. What a treat! And now just 1 week till Easter, what a time of rejoicing we are in! Watched a new Perry Stone release this morning called Revival - A warning to the Nations. It was good I thought, and shared with new insight. Wanted to pass that along in case anyone is interested. Blessings! 🌺
Kris, would you be able to post the link for us. I just read my first Perry Stone book! :) Also, do you have the Easter Now app? Follows Jesus steps this week.... https://apps.apple.com/us/app/easter-now/id1210527891
Amen pastor Jimmy. I love the scriptures from Zephaniah. God sure has made this country girl happy the last little bit. For the first time in years, my son brought his wife and my 2 grand babies to church. We had such a wonderful service. My son stood boldly in front of the church and apologized to everyone and he received confirmation from God where his younger brother went. He blamed himself for his brother's death although he wasn't with him when he was killed. He blamed himself for not witnessing to him before his death. God is surely answering prayers on my behalf for my dear family. My heart is full today. What an honor it is, to be in church with our children. Thank you pastor Jimmy, and all of those who are willing to get on their knees and send up prayers on our behalf. Love all of you.
Hala, what an amazing testimony surrounding a tragedy. It shouts of the love and goodness of God in the midst of a heart breaking event. Your comment has touched my heart this morning. Even in the worst of our earthly experiences, God lifts us up and does we can’t do our own. Thank you for being so transparent. This so encouraged me. May God bless you for your love of your family and your brothers and sisters in Christ. Lord, bless my sister and family like only You can. In Jesus name, Amen!
Oh God bless you Art. He has blessed me beyond measure the last couple of months. Oh the joy that floods my soul!!!!
Jesus wants to save every last one before the Tribulation.
How awesome! How wonderful!
2 Peter 3:9 ESV
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
Amen Hello, thank you God.❤️⬆️🙏✝️✡️
Thank-you for sharing Hala. We rejoice with you!! I praise God for the work He is doing in your family!!! 🌺
Oh precious Hala, how my heart rejoices with yours!!!! I can’t imagine a better way to celebrate your Sunday!!!! Have a wonderful day!!! Love those little ones, I pray ALL OF US that have lost family can join you in praise reports very soon!!!
Love you dear sister ❤️🙏✝️
Celebrate 🎊
Oh dear Glee, each one of you who have wayward children or have children who are lost, get ready. Our prayers are not in vain!!! Thank you all so much for every prayer that you have lifted on behalf of my children. May God bless each one of you one hundred fold. Love you Glee and each one of you....
Thank you so very much I will cling to that promise with all my heart!!!
Love you all so much ❤️❤️
Hala, we are witnessing pure revival in your family!! This will flow generations of believers growing out of the pain from your story. I'm amazing every time you update us on your family, there's been another major miracle!! Love you sister.... we'll keep praying. Any new requests we can cover you?
You know, Kari, God is answering prayers that my pastor, brother has prayed also, the one who recently lost his wife to cancer. Not really lost, but she was carried home by angels. We have had several members who weren't coming to church for years. Now my oldest brother, Doug is back. Another dear friend who just found out that he has kidney cancer. He's back, and another cousin who has brain, liver, and lung cancer. He's back. I think what God is doing, is calling the lost sheep in, because he is coming to get us. He is getting all, ready for departure!!! So awesome to see what God is doing. We are praying for a heart felt revival such as what took place at Asbury. God is able.
You were obedient to God's calling and went to Asbury.... it's still going on in the hearts & your family. Your family's health is going thru so much pain, but it's bringing your loved ones back to Jesus. Praying for healing bodies & hearts.
Just for my Tierra. I sent her a private message yesterday and told her that I don't know where she stands with the Lord, but she had better be praying hard. I told her that time as we know it, is running out. I also told her that I want her to go to heaven with me and that I don't want her to be left behind. She put a heart emoji on the post. Just keep praying for her. God has answered so many of my prayers. Also in our little church, God is sending young people who are lost, who have been either giving their hands for prayer, or are praying at the altar. Pray that God sends that deep Godly sorrow that truly convicts their hearts that they truly repent and are saved. They all know that we are in the end of days. Thank You Kari for asking. I love you sister!
Praying big for Tierra!!!! We won't stop praying until your prodigal daughter comes home to Jesus arms!
Will be praying for all this, Hala! Open the gate and let the sheep return to the flock, Lord!
PRAISE GOD!!!!!!
This is such a HUGE praise report!!! What a blessing beyond measure! Your post just made me smile all the way to the depths of my soul! Hallelujah!
I love you Chris. Many blessings to you today and always.
Love you back Hala! May your Palm Sunday continue to be blessed beyond measure!
Our children are His before they are ours. In His time and in His way He draws them with cords of love and with the spirit of adoption making them the children of the Most High God! Hallelujah!
Carol I believe Mothers prayers are so powerful. Must keep praying for your children. God will move heaven and earth to reach them . When we are born we are in what I call the Adam's family. We need to tranfer our heart our lives our faith to Gods family. John's gospel says to all who received him Jesus he gave the right to become children of God and thoses who believed in his name. We are not children of God until we receive Jesus. We need to ask the Lord to forgive us of our sins . Then we are born again come alive being filled with his Holy Spirit. We leave Adam's family and become joint heirs with Christ in God's family. You probably know all this but I waS just feeling a move from. the Lord to share this with you. That is why Jesus is the only way to the father. We can't get to God through Adam . His relation with God is severed. We need Jesus Bible calls him the second Adam. In Christ we are perfect. God does not see our sins he sees Jesus. Keep on keeping on in prayer . God will move in their hearts and lives. Until they are born a gain changed into the image of God . God confirms in our hearts that we are his Children. Our new desires is to please him . Not for salvation but because of salvation.
Love this David P 😊
As a mom, I start each day and end each day ( and sometimes midnight prayers) for my adult children. 🙏 I'm so thankful that God has a huge heart for this mother's pleas to him.
Yes. He hears. A friend of mine got saved because of his mother's faithfullness and prayers. He is a musician and electrician started a Christian blue grass group . He wrote a song Mama Prayed. You can hear it on You Tube group is The Rockdale Boys. There is a girl bass player in the group. The blonde guy Mark is my good friend and brother in the Lord.
Awe...nice! I'll look them up.
Yes David P., mother's prayers are so powerful because she is in God's perfect will! She is praying upward and Jesus seated next to our Heavenly Father is praying downward and there is warfare in the heavenlies for their souls! Our prayers of intercession for our sons and daughters will one day be prayers of thanksgiving! Eyes off our children as we look fully to our Savior and one day theirs!
BLESSED IS SHE WHO BELIEVED THERE WOULD BE A FULFILLMENT OF THAT WHICH WAS SPOKEN TO HER OF THE LORD.
My daughter Hannah just told me about a special app "Easter Now" you can get to follow the last steps of Jesus this entire week. Hour by hour they help us track his steps with interesting facts. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/easter-now/id1210527891
Kari, what a blessing your family is. May God bless and protect each one of your children. It is so good to see our children involved in church and outreaches. Love you.
Awesome thanks tell her thank you for me 🥰🥰
Praise the Lord!
“Repeatedly, he describes feelings of terror and torment that he is eternally damned—with no hope of salvation.”
Yep. Pretty much sums it up for me. What a timely and reassuring message; not so much in the reassuring, but in the knowledge that even men such as John Bunyan suffered under the same spiritual maladies as a commoner like me does, sometimes.
Ironically, years ago God met me in what seems to be a similar manner to Mr. Bunyan. I had failed so many times with an addiction to pornography, that I was convinced I could not possibly belong to God. So I fell on my face and told him “God, if I really belong to you, you will have to prove it; because I don’t believe that I do”.
The next day in church service, it was just like any other, until I went to the altar. I prayed and felt nothing. Then, I felt a hand on my back. A man began to speak these words out of Isaiah 43:1-2.
“But now, thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob,
And He who formed you, O Israel:
“Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have called you by your name;
You are Mine.
2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.
When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,
Nor shall the flame scorch you. (Isaiah 43:1-2)
It’s tough to describe what happened next. If any of you have ever been in the ocean while massive waves are crashing down, and you’re taken under and tossed about like a rag in a washing machine, it was like that, except the water and forces were pure love and indescribable bliss. For the first time in my entire life, I felt completely cleansed. I knew I was forgiven. I sobbed so hard I couldn’t catch my breath; the joy was indescribable.
It’s tough to keep my composure even as I write this. So that was the stake in the ground for me with respect to belonging to God. Have i questioned my salvation since? Many times. Has God reassured me in my salvation since? Many times.
I guess it comes down to one question. Is Salvation an ticket or a Person? If salvation is a ticket; we may very well lose that ticket. If it’s a Person, and we are hidden within that Person, then that’s another matter entirely.
So thankful for this very timely message. So thankful that I can bank my eternity not on some fickle feelings or whims when I think I’m performing well, but on the surety of God’s promises. The only One who has never lied. The only one who keeps his promises despite ourselves. The only One worthy of our complete and total trust.
To the point of my post - it brought back, almost in very prophetic terms, the EXACT sentiment I had in a dream I had a few years back about the rapture. I think I’ve shared it here before — I was standing in a field (like a playground). I looked around and notice a group of children standing in a circle. They were holding hands singing worship songs. I began to walk towards them and then I noticed they were looking up. I looked up and saw what appeared to be a very small cloud against a bright blue sky. The cloud started to grow.
It was then that it looked as though I was looking through binoculars at this cloud and noticed that I could see a door open. The “cloud” was actually angels funneling through the door! Kind of like what you would see if you saw a massive crowd pouring out of an arena. It was then, I saw my wife - she was standing on a rooftop. I yelled at her “Daddy is back!!!.. as I ran, I began going up in the sky. All of the guilt, fear, shame and doubt just melted away and I yelled “I MADE IT!” I knew that all of the battles with doubting my salvation were OVER!. I saw two angels standing at the door. They did not acknowledge me. They were so somber and focused on those who were on earth - their faces stayed steadfastly on the people below me as they waved me into the door. It reminded me of what the angels must have looked like when they were ushering Lot out of Sodom and Gomorrah. VERY serious.
Anyways, when the article talked about the rapture finally putting all of the enemy’s attacks to rest about our salvation - it reminded me of this dream.
Love you all.
- Steven G.
Oh my Steve…your testimony sure has blessed me. Thank you!!! Just seems like the storms of life are hitting hard. If I didn’t have our Heavenly Father as my anchor I would have been long gone. But strangely enough, I’m closer to HIM as never before!!! So thankful HE chose us!!!
You’re welcome sister. So happy whenever anything I have to share blesses someone. I agree with you about the storms hitting hard - I’ve been noticing that over the last few months; I believe that the enemy is working overtime trying to discourage and beat down the saints. Wading in the Word of God has really helped me to keep my focus where it belongs every day. Praying that God restores to you the joy of your salvation - that he mounts you up on eagle’s wings and brings rest and restoration to your soul. You are so dearly loved.
God bless you!
Amen!!
Amen!
Amen, Esther, and Praise God. Love you hon
Love you too Verna♥️♥️♥️
Esther, I didn't have time to respond to you about your post concerning your son sitting in that jail cell the other day. Just wanted to let you know how it touched my heart with pain, and gave me tears for both of you. You are not alone. Ive been praying for you and your son. I went through a similar situation with my son and remember feeling emotional and physical pain beyond belief. 💔 Theres a Danny Gokey song called "more than you think I am".
The lyrics are beautiful. It starts with how we always think of him (God) being on a mountaintop but he's also behind bars. He's always with us no matter where we are. So I visualize God sitting there watching over your son. I remember a week such as yours where I couldnt eat or even barely breathe getting through it. I handed my son over to "him" and visualized angels sitting and protecting him every minute he was behind bars. I hope this comforts you if even just a tad. Be strong snd know hes not in there going through this alone.My thoughts and prayers will remain with you my dear. Big hugs! 🤗🤗
It's one of the most painful things a mama can go through. Both of you, Esther and Jessie , and your children are in my prayers. God bless you!
🤗 Big hugs to you V!
🙏💗🌻🤗🤗🤗
Verna. I love you
Jessie…thank you for your kindness!!! I find myself sitting staring into space at nothing. Can’t shake the sadness. Your words lightens the load. We all understand how to bare one another burdens. This site has sure done that for me. Thank you again. I love you my friend:)
Oh Esther....I'd never wish bad things on anyone (well...occasionally my xhusband 😄) , but seriously though it does help to hear other people's burdens, doesn't it? It personally makes me feel like I'm not alone. And you are not alone 😊. We're all sending out support to each other whether we can see it or not. As mothers, we bear such a huge burden because their joys are our joys, but their problems ( big and small) weigh so heavily on our shoulders. The tears we've both shed could probably fill a swimming pool.My biggest joys and traumas have involved my children and the trials continue. But God will continue to be there for you and me until he finally comes to get us. You and your son will be in my thoughts and prayers. God's got this! May you feel his constant comfort and love for you. Hugs!!
Steven G I'm reading your testimony and tears are flowing. This is exactly WHY we share our stories. It moves our hearts.... it rejoices in your miracle, your healing, your transformation, your redemption. I hope you share your story often.... it's a heart mover for sure! I can't wait to meet you in heaven at the wedding supper.... God has some very special crowns and rewards for you. Have you read Mark Hitchcocks book, Heavenly Rewards? It will encourage you SO much in your walk with Jesus. He uses the broken and ordinary and turns everything to extraordinary. That is you brother, extraordinary. 🎺☁️🔜
Hi Kari 😊👋
I have not seen that book! I’ll definitely get it. Thank you for the encouraging words, I share that story on occasion when I feel like the Holy Spirit wants to use it to minister to someone; his love is truly beyond my comprehension. I don’t get it, but then again, I don’t need to 😃
Love you sister - have a wonderful Psalm Sunday. Cannot wait to give you and everyone else here a great big bear hug when I see you!!!
Amen Steve, I know just what you mean!
Blessings indeed 💛
Amen, Kari. Well said sister!
Oh Steven, how awesome is the salvation of the Lord. He places a seal on the inside of us when we are saved. Just as you will always be the natural child of your father, so we are the spiritual of our Father. No one can break that seal. For it came at a great price at Calvary. We are redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. Love your testimony. What a time we are all going to have, when we all reach homeland!!! You talk about a time of rejoicing... Love you brother.
What a precious post Hala - I cannot wait to see you all when Jesus returns for us. A time of rejoicing indeed. You are all such beautiful brothers and sisters… thank you for taking the time to respond ❤️
Precious one
Wow what a share!!!! Thank you so much for sharing.
I read a book recently about the unshakeable assurance of the believer.... being saved is not about behavior modification!! Jesus could have done that without it costing him his life!!!!
He came to change us into Gods sons!!!! In our best 5 minutes we couldn’t do it, HE HAD TO DO IT FOR US!!!
Happy Sunday ❤️✝️⬆️
Amen Glee
God works differently in each person. I remember asking God (as I have many times) “WHY do I struggle so much in this ONE area. You changed everything else… why is this still here? How can possibly be saved?”
The Lord answered with this: “Do you enjoy your sin, like you used to? Do you cry when you know you’ve fallen short? Why does it grieve you so? Did it ever grieve you before? Did you ever CARE about what I thought about anything before you came to know me? Why do you care now?”
The answer was obvious. I had a new nature.
I’ve learned so much since then. I never stop learning. I began to be grateful for the struggles that kept me humble and pressing into him.
My grandfather used to say, only Almighty God in His Three Persons knows it all. Humankind is strongest when humbly acknowledging our weakness and surrendered fully in Christ Jesus.
Wisdom 🙏✝️
That's beautiful CD. Truly beautiful. 🙏
So true Steven, God bless you brother ❤️⬆️🙏
Bless you Glee. I LOVE your name 😃❤️❤️
Glee.... Beautiful words on this Palm Sunday!!!
Amen, precious Glee.
Wow Steven. Your testimony is so beautiful. Thank God you shared that with us!! Thank you!! What a bright shining light in a dark world. God bless you brother.
Thank you Verna - God bless and keep you.
And you as well my sweet Brother in Christ.
I remember you sharing this dream in the past, Steven. I'm so glad you shared it once again and loved hearing everything you shared. ❤️ Beautiful! 😊
This was an amazing share and testimony to me Steven. I love this dream or vision that you shared, I feel like I was there watching this happen. Such a great article too. On a lot of these tough things, we get to feeling like we are the only ones thinking or feeling or struggling with these things. It is so good to feel normal and not alone with some of these struggles that feel like they shouldn’t be happening to people of faith or people that have been in the faith a long time. It hasn’t been too bad for me in a good while, but I struggled with those doubts and thoughts questioning salvation for many years. It was always very performance based. I even got thinking about some of those old thoughts today, at church. Thoughts about what it looks like descending in the earth down to hell or being forced to stay in the grave. Old lies. Like pastor Jimmy said, we have these intellectual connections and this faith to rely on but our old, fickle and unreliable hearts don’t always feel the same as what we know. This was a really timely and quality message today, reminding us of the truth that we have to look forward too. Your message and description was an awesome share.
Dear Justin, so well said. It seems like our uncertainty always goes back to Legalism, when in truth it’s just Grace, Grace, Gods Grace, Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt….beautiful 🎵 song 🎶
Loved this truth that you shared. Such a hard concept to grasp sometimes.
What a testimony, Steven! Your prophetic dream caused my eyes to leak. This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
Tears flowing in TX. What an amazing dream!!!! God will give us dreams & visions in the last days. 🎺☁️🔜
With all of the rapture dreams being revealed, how can anyone not believe in it AND that it appears to be right around the corner?
So true ❤️❤️
I’m glad I’m not the only one moved to tears 😊
That's an awesome testimony Steven. God bless you and your family.
Powerful and beautiful testimony, Steven. Thank you for sharing it and the blessing it offers others.
❤ ❤
Thank you for sharing your dream too
Amen!!
Good morning TP Family—that’s what we are, like-hearted people loving one another, praying, cheering, supporting and encouraging!! This weekend we had an unfortunate incident where a subscriber was physically threatening and using foul language…bullying members. 😔 They have been removed (banned) They will still receive TP posts & shows but will no longer be able to read or leave comments indefinitely. This behavior will never be tolerated on the Tipping Point. Y’all if you ever read a comment that is inappropriate (don’t engage🔥) instead, click on the three little dots … and you can report the end time staff. Lastly, we’ve worked hard to build a unique, special community and want to keep growing strong, honoring one another! TP is a global 🌍 community & filled with different views, different perspectives & unique gifts & talents—believers in the King of Kings! I’m grateful to be a part of this community💛 Love you
I agree with you Kari, but at this point I think we should go a step further and ask that if someone posts a political comment, please don't get into a major debate. It seems to turn ugly every time. End times bible prophecy is literally intertwined with everything. Religion, technology, government, schools, relationships are just some of them, so I understand that people will sometimes post comments not everyone agrees with. Let's humble ourselves and not add fuel to the fire. If there is a need to debate, please exchange contact information and take it outside of this platform. We really need to keep this a place where people feel comfortable with posting comments. I'm including myself in this as well. Satan wants us to fight. Let's not give him the satisfaction. Let's be kind. God bless you.
Agree… I think if we can all remember this is not a US blog/website this is TP global. We can disagree with honor & kindness. Our dear friends are from all over the world who are struggling under wicked government too. 💛💛🌍🙏 https://youtu.be/tIpxpjrInA8
We wouldn't be in the end of the end times if everything was wonderful. 😉 We need each other now more so than ever. Regardless of what country we live in, we are all experiencing similar circumstances as a believer in Christ. We need to continue to pray for each other and the people in our lives. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amen Maggie!!! 🎺☁️🔜
Thank you dear Kari for reminding the TP community that we are from all over the world not just the US. Shout out to any other kiwis here. G’day to the Ozzie bros and sisters ❤️
I think that’s what I love most about the Tipping Point— this is a global community….a mission field. We can all learn from each other and have different perspectives wherever we live. I’m from Texas 🤠 (howdy pardner) but have had the great privilege of living in other countries! We have a big wide world and someday soon we will have a heavenly New Earth!
Hi Kari. I did not see or read the post. But you are right; God is a God of order and peace. 1st Corinthians 14:33. Not confusing. We love and uplift each other. Have a blessed Holy Week. Love. Always enjoy your comments.🙏
Gladys, I'm so grateful the comments are gone (poof:) and you didn't have to read the thread. The good news, we stand together even stronger and honoring one another with all our hearts. The time is near 🎺☁️🔜
And even more as 2024 approaches 🇺🇸
Amen Maggie.
Amen, Maggie. Jesus crucified and hearts repentant and surrendered. All else just vanishes in His magnificent Love and Light.
Amen, Kari. I'm so glad I didn't see it this time. Praise God!!
Love you sweet V .... whew, it would have hurt your heart! We are getting ready.... looking up, sharing the good news, and loving big! 🎺☁️🔜
Amen... Looking Up!!
Hi Kari, sorry to hear about the bullying members.... Thanks for keeping it safe so we can all learn and grow. 🌺
There was only 1 bully and guess who lit his fuse... it was a short fuse and totally caught me off guard. Kari and Chris came to the rescue. :) PS Another lesson learned to steer clear of a certain topic.
Hi David, glad you are still here. You make big contributions and people love to track with you, and follow your fatherly heart. Yup, sometimes our buttons get pushed. Best to pull back a bit so we can all share the same space. I have to say that to the kids on my bus on a daily basis. We are all still learning.... 🌺
Kris…I too am so thankful David is still here. I would have greatly missed him!!! The noise of politics hurts my head. I enjoy peace 🥰
Amen, we need David!!!!❤️❤️
I agree .. David shares so many wonderful things about our lord.. and he backs them up.. I learn a lot from him🙏✝️
:):)
:):)
🚌 💨 yes — we all need a reminder that our buttons can get pushed. The “T” word will be a hot button this week. The whole world is watching. 👀 We are most certainly at a tipping point globally! Love y’all 💛
Love it!!! 🌺👍
And speaking of school buses… I saw my surgeon this morning. He is recommending a full blown fusion on my back this summer. Looks like I will retire at the end of the year. I feel relieved. It has gotten harder and harder to work with this pain. Would prefer my new Heavenly body before they try to fix this one…. But all in His hands. He has the plan and aren’t we glad!! 🌺

:):)
that fellow made a scary violent post previously - that wasn't directed at anyone here
I know... had seen it.
It wasn't the topic per se. It was him
He has had a serious anger issue most of his life. I know he's born again
and likes end times much. Maybe this incident might prompt him to really pursue dealing with this issue.
Hugs to you David. 🤗 I know we're about the same age but you remind me so much of my oldest son. I wont go into details.😄 I love you both!
Love you Jessie!
😊
I really value and enjoy your comments and responses David. Probably like a few members here, I wasn’t surprised you were the “fuse lighter”.. however I personally especially look for your comments. Not to give you a big head or anything 😁 GBU x
Thanks Leanne. No big head here. :)
Love ya David… give that sweet mom of yours a big hug today! 🤗
Love ya Kari! Will do!
Amen Kris!
Hi Kari. There is a new comment by Fredwb asking how to cancel his TP account. Can you help him? I hope he is not leaving because of the negative comments.
Did Steve Branson quit TP? Do you have a way to reach out to him? Steve is such an big part of this TP family, I would not want to see him leave. Thanks, Maggie
Maggie, I found out TP Steve Branson community was walloped by the storms! He's been clearing debris with his tractor. Praying big for everyone involved in the storm.
Oh I pray our precious is ok!!!
God bring him close ⬆️🙏
Thanks Kari. These storms have been so devastating with the loss of lives and livelihoods. I pray for all of these people to have their needs met in every way possible. I pray that the ones who died from these storms are in heaven enjoying life with our Lord. GBU
I saw photos of the town of Sullivan and Steve took a photo of a little girl wearing only 1 shoe. It's like a war zone....There are no words. His family is good and home safe, but the area is devastated from tornadoes. He's Steve-O the hero on his tractor! I bet he'll come on soon and share
Ok thank you Maggie—I’ll try to find his comment. Please let him know he can email endtimes@xomarriage.com to take care of his subscription.
I promise Steve Branson didn’t quit TP!!! There were a few posts this weekend which makes it a little more challenging to stay on top of new posts & comments! I’m sure Tracy was keeping him busy in the garden 🪴 lol Love you! 💛
If you have his contact information, can I talk you into reaching out to him to make sure everything is okay?
I don't have contact info, but I did find his comment and left the end times email for him. They'll take care of it. Yes, I reached out to him last week too. I think it's about paying monthly and asked him if I could help cover for a year of TP.
We got him set up for the next 12 months. :) I was able to reach out to him via email. Thanks again Maggie for letting me know.... big hearted Maggie to the rescue! 💛
Thanks Kari. He had sent a chart to a number of us not too long ago and I was able to find his email address. He sent me some pictures of the storm damage. Very devastating. Pray for everyone who was affected by those storms. Some lives were lost in the last storm and this one too. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Awesome thanks so much for your help ❤️❤️
Amen! Another great word of encouragement pastor Evans. I too battle with doubt even with as much scripture I know. I remember hearing long ago that humans are leaky buckets this is why we need to re-read and hear and read and re-read over and over again and never stop praying. At my age and the beginning of my memory fading I feel my bucket is getting more holes!!!! God bless you tippers on this glorious palm Sunday.
LOL! I feel ya on the new holes being added to my bucket every year. Have a blessed day this beautiful Palm Sunday!
Brother Chris...I'm always saying I'm getting "halfheimers"..."sometimers".....lol
LOL this Chris is your sister Chris :))
Oh I had no idea of the gender! Sorry sister Chris! We have not formally met in tipping point fashion! Lol!
No worries! Chris means “bearing Christ”. I can’t think of a better name for either male or female
That's excellent Chris! I have always known "Christian" meant follower of the christened or anointed.
Amen!!! 🌺
LOL! Getting Covid didn't help me either. Maybe I have covheimers. Which almost looks like something a cow would contract.
PS - I'm Sister Chris, although not to be confused with a nun. ;)
LOL we literally posted at the exact same time sister Chris :)
😂😂 I might have to change to yesterday’s new nickname of Momma Chris 🤪😂😂
Our names whether for male or female are unisex! And I'm okay with that!😉😅🤣😂...NO PRONOUN ISSUE HERE IN THIS CAMP!
Hello Chris C.!
This is for you and all of us who have holes in our bucket:
The Leaky Bucket
There was a young servant whose job it was to bring water from the well to his master’s chambers. Every day he would pick up a pole that had two buckets, one on either side, and rest it on his shoulders. And every day he would walk down the long cobblestone path to the well so he could fill the buckets with water.
On the left side of the pole the bucket was sturdy and strong. The bucket on his right side was rather shabby looking and had some cracks and a few small holes. Every time he would fill up these buckets and walk back up into the castle, the bucket with the holes would leak water. Little would be left when the servant reached the top of the hill. This caused the leaky bucket much distress.
One day the leaky bucket said to the servant, “You know, maybe it’s time that you replace me. I serve no purpose - every time you fill me up, I leak, and by the time you get to the top of the hill, there is very little water left for our Master. You must be so disappointed in me.” The perfect bucket said very proudly, “Not so with me. I hold all the water you draw and pour into me. Surely this pleases you.”
The servant put down the pole, looked at the buckets, and said, “My sound and sturdy bucket, I value you well and it does please me you carry water without spilling a drop." Then he said to the leaky bucket: "You know, it is a long walk between the castle and the well, and the path is steep on the way back. It certainly does get hot this time of day and the sun’s rays make the walk challenging. If it wasn’t for you leaking, my dear friend, then I would not have all these beautiful flowers to enjoy on the way. They brighten my day and make my load lighter. I am well pleased with your work, as well.”
The leaky bucket looked and realized it had never noticed the thick stands of vibrant flowers which lined the side of the path where it spilled its water on the return trip each day. It was amazed that what it had seen as failure was really a blessing which brought beauty and life to barren earth. It never again regretted its making or doubted it had purpose and in all the days of its service, the flowers continued to bloom.
That's good Carol! I never thought that when we leak the world gets the drops that leak out! Lord help me to leak out on the people who need it! Thank you Carol and God bless you today!
🌺🌸🌼🌻🌷🌺🌸🌼🌻🌷🌺🌸
Point well-taken, Carol! Love this!
🌸🌺🌼🌻🌷🌸🌼🌻🌷🌸🌺🌼
Amen Pastor Jimmy!!! And good Sunday morning to all tipsters!!!! Thank you for your super encouraging words today!! I just finished reading Clark Whitten’s book,
Pure Grace!!! AGAIN....it always leads me back to my assurance in Christ and my precious adoptions as his son!!!!
Nothing I have to work for just Pure Grace!!!!it’s indescribable!
His love for me.
Glee,
Amen! As I read your post the lyrics to the song Blessed Assurance immediately came to mind. Happy Sunday!
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long
Thanks Chris, everytime one of you mention that song, I tear up. Until about a month ago, I had never heard it. It is such a joy! God bless you Brother!
Iloooooooove that🤗🤗
Love that old song!
Me too!!
Love this Chris.
May the Lord... bless Mr. J. Evans and all the team of Tipping Point for all eternity... We as believers have a great blessing with T. Points... every time I feel confuse or with anxiety... T. Points is there for me... and by reading Mr. Evans explanations and encouraging articles... is like Jesus Himselve had taking the time to speak to me as a personal friend... Im a hispanic, USA ARMY veteran of a 30 years active dutty career, 1976 to 2005... Because of that it took many years to be convinced that God was real... and that I could be a soldier n a Chistian...How different my life would have been if Tipping Points were in my life then... Even if technology is so negative at times... Im glad I have it , because how else was I would here Mr. Evans and his team encouraging words...Fellow Christians, remember Luke 24:25 believe the profets, believe Jesus, dont be FOOLS... n look up your redemtion is very close...
Thank you Pastor Evans for this inspiring message. I struggle with this same issue from time to time. When I do I pray and all my fears and struggles disappear. Praise God for His mercy, grace and forgiveness.
All powerful, all consuming, never failing, never ending, LOVE; He poured out in overflowing abundance for all who will believe and receive the gift of His salvation. Wow, thank you all for your beautiful responses, so encouraging!
Amen!
Thanks Pastor Jimmy. Exactly what I needed to hear on this Palm Sunday. It is so hard to remember we have the Blessed Hope to look forward to, when we are being bombarded daily from the enemy. Thank you for the reminder of how much we are loved by Him. We are heirs to the greatest King ever! Maranatha!
Amen! Me too! :)

Good morning
It's a beautiful Palm Sunday
Pastor Jimmy I so needed your words today. Many years ago I asked the Holy Spirit to be a filter to dreams that visited me in my sleep each night. He has been faithful to do just that but last night was so very different. My dream was in three parts and caused great torment. I woke twice due to physical pain or the need to go to the bathroom. I was trembling and my breathing was labored. Each time I laid back down I fell quickly back to sleep and the dream continued right where it had left off. The dream was revealing all the hurt I had caused others by my sin. I saw it in their eyes, I heard it in their voices and I felt it as they looked away from me! I never had known what my sin had caused them and I wept bitterly. Was this dream in three parts conviction by the Holy Spirit or condemnation by the enemy of my soul? The sins were definitely mine and obviously the hurt and pain I caused others was real.
Forgive me Lord Jesus. At 80 years old most of those I wounded are no longer alive to ask their forgiveness. Those few that are
I will go to them.
TORMENT
Almost every believer has these moments at some point in their faith journey. I cannot count the number of people who have come to me, over the years, wondering if they are “really saved.” It is a very common torment.
The Lord your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. —Zephaniah 3:17
I LOVE this Ps. Jimmy! You always deliver just what I need to read or hear right when I need it!
Last month I mentioned that my husband and I both had the same dream at the same time. While he and I were both given an interpretation, we reached out to Kari's friend "S" who has nailed the interpretations to several of my past dreams. "S" received the interpretation yesterday and shared it with us. It is exactly what we had received. I am sharing this with you because it is an important warning to the Church and His Bride. Just as an FYI: my husband had a very troubled tummy that day and I didn't want to share in whatever was plaguing him so I grabbed my pillows and a blanket and slept on the sofa in the family room.
DREAMS:
Chris:
It was raining and my kids and I were in a building where each wall with a window was white and the non-window walls were black. While we were the only people in the building, it felt so….. empty, for lack of a better word. We were on the first floor and climbing stairs to the second when I saw a river of clear water rising outside the building. I hurried my kids upstairs but once up there realized we’d get trapped up there without some way to break through the roof. Our daughter started talking to my husband on the phone. I went back downstairs and looked at grabbing a hammer or axe to break through the roof, but when I looked out the window the water wasn’t very high and it was completely calm. I told my kids we were wading through the water to reach higher ground. I remember hearing my husband say to my daughter on the phone we would drown if we tried to wade through the current but I told him we’d be fine. We were then standing outside a chapel. We walked up the steps and stepped inside the sanctuary. There was a very large video screen across the back wall and a preacher on the video was telling the smattering of people in the church that the Rapture had occurred. They were crying, horrified, bewildered, and in shock. I was bewildered as to why I would have missed the Rapture, along with my kids. We stepped out of the church and poof! We were outta there. And then I woke up completely confused as to what that dream was and why I was on the sofa (forgot hubby hadn’t felt well and I didn’t want whatever he was plagued with).
My husband’s dream:
He was out running errands when it started raining really hard and the streets started flooding. He went inside a building that had black and white walls (like my dream). He looked out the window and noticed the floodwaters were rising and the water was very murky and nasty. He left the building in search of us and came upon a church. He walked up the steps and into the sanctuary. A preacher was at the pulpit telling the people in the church something but stopped when my husband walked in. The church was full and had people standing up in every available bit of space. Everyone turned to look at him when he walked in. The preacher and congregation started shouting angrily at him, asking him why he was there and to get out. He was shocked and immediately became offended at such behavior in a church. He said to heck with this and walked back outside to look for us and then woke up. Even after waking up he was highly offended at the unChrist-like behavior of the preacher and people in the church.
This is the interpretation a friend received from the Holy Spirit, which completely aligns with the interpretations my husband and I each received.
"Both dreams are from Me and of Me. They are a warning to My church. For My church is My bride, My 1st love. And yet I require holiness of My people, of My bride. I require a repentance and a renewal that comes from right living. One cannot walk in right living, in relationship with Me, without Me. And I see a church that is walked in a relationship that is not with Me. They are deceived about the things of God. For they are walking in the ways of man, not in My ways. And the deception will lead to a great loss in the last days. For I am coming for a pure bride, a righteous bride, a holy bride. And the church that has been tainted by the world, will not be prepared for My arrival. This is a warning. For the deception may look like it is in the form of many things, but the deception is the same. The enemy has blinded the bride to the things of man. The enemy has caused My bride to be numb to the things of Christ and no longer aware of what I have called you to - which is a life of holiness. And you are no longer walking in the light of My ways, but are stumbling in the dark unaware that you are walking in blindness. What is the enemy's deception in the church? You have lost your 1st love. Made many other things idols, your love. I am looking for a bride that loves Me with purity, righteousness and in complete devotion.
The days are dark and the church that will be My bride will require complete devolution to Me and My ways. There cannot be doubt, question or distraction. I am the light and without My light in your life, the darkness will prevail. But there is a pure bride that I will receive in the last days. Take heart. And the bride will be full. Full of My light and strength overflowing with My presence and grace. Filled with My righteousness and holiness filled by Me and for My glory. Stay near Me for I have overcome the world. I have overcome the darkness. And stay diligent in the church for I am sifting My church, I am searching for My bride. And there will come a day when the chosen bride will be made known by all who remain."
Thank you for sharing Mama Chris.... we are the church and Jesus bride. Jesus continues to give his sons & daughters dreams & visions.... He wants us to be ready. This is the perfect post to share too! We have the confidence in Jesus to know exactly where we will go if we die while on earth or raptured! 🎺☁️🔜
When I start having doubts as to whether the Rapture is really going to happen, I look around at the number of people who are having dreams about the Rapture. There’s just too many to doubt or pass off as a Biblical fairytale.
Amen!!!!!
Wow Chris, thanks for sharing! My Soirit says YES to this interpretation. I love this gift. God is sooooo amazing!! Please pray for me this morning. I see my surgeon. Big decisions to make. Do I retire? Do I have surgery to fix this herniated disc? I can sense the Lord leading me but I need to know for sure. Thanks Chris! 🌺
Good morning Kris! You are so right - God IS amazing and so great! I am continually amazed at how He puts people in my life at the exact right moment. I was also shocked yesterday when I looked at the website I created to anonymously post the dreams I’ve been given and the views went from 20ish to over 500. People see what’s going on in the world and have started searching. I’m praying that by me sucking up my fear and trepidation and sharing these dreams with the world, it’ll help drive the floundering and lost to Jesus.
I also have several herniated discs and understand your pain quite well. I’m covering you in prayer as you visit with your doctor and determine your best course of treatment. One of my brothers just had surgery to fix an issue with his back and he’s having a remarkably wonderful recovery while I’ve made it over 30 years avoiding surgery. There’s no right or wrong, just what’s best for your situation. I will be praying for the Lord to make your choice very clear and for you to be completely at peace with whatever decision is made. Much love to you! ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m so sorry Kris & Chris both amazing women of God both suffering from this pain from herniated discs! Praying over you today for complete healing. Kris also praying for your Dr appointment today for the Holy Spirit’s wisdom & guidance! 💛 Please keep us updated
Thanks Kari and Chris! Today was amazing!! So much answered prayer and hope! My Doc said we should move forward with surgery. I sensed a real peace as we talked about it and will Trust the Lord to direct my path. Thankyou for your prayers, I will keep you posted. I’m going to try and finish out the year at work, and shoot for early summer for the surgery. John can work from home for a few weeks as I recover.... All in God’s hands. He is my strong tower!! 🌺
That’s wonderful news, Kris! I know some people would think having surgery isn’t good but being able to repair the disc damage so you can move without pain is a huge blessing. Please keep us posted so we can pray for all your needs on this journey. ❤️🙏🏻
Pls tell us the website with the dreams

I pray that I'm there before you. I will tell Jesus. I look forward to meeting you all when the trumpet blasts. Until then my prayers are with all of you too. Yours in Christ Jesus.
Hi ya’ll, Pilgrim’s Progress that’s us!! Palm Sunday today, and an old fashion potluck after Church. What a treat! And now just 1 week till Easter, what a time of rejoicing we are in! Watched a new Perry Stone release this morning called Revival - A warning to the Nations. It was good I thought, and shared with new insight. Wanted to pass that along in case anyone is interested. Blessings! 🌺
Thank You for sharing this. I have not listened to Perry Stone before but this message was a blessing to hear!
Found the Perry Stone YT.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=407DKoHCWmM
