As birds of a feather go together, so are spirits of a kind. Witchcraft, divination, sorcery, superstition, necromancy, and the likes are abominations to God! Beware, lest you fall and share with their reward.

But faith, hope, love, righteousness, wisdom, prophesy, and all the rest of the gifts and fruits of the Spirit bring honor and glory to God. Ask for them; for He is a generous rewarder to them that earnestly seek.

Do not walk the ways of the world but rather walk by faith and not by sight. Live by grace and not by luck. Trust in God's guidance and not in vain soothsayers. Live each day as your miracle.

Supremacy necessitates prudence in fiat; for wisdom, that the Spirit gives, is the strength of sovereignty. God is all-sovereign and all-supreme because He is all-knowing and His wisdom is unfathomable.

By His fiat every thing that is come into existence. With Him nothing is wasted; for He shall renew all creation for His sake. The lost souls, the fallen angels, and even Lucifer shall not be wasted forever.

Those in authority, show righteousness to whom it must be shown. Pray and let the Spirit guide you. In wisdom & circumspection, do what is necessary so that their whole garment may not be defiled.

Exhort even if they may despise the word, it is not vain; for in the days to come, the word will arise again to condemn and they will be without excuse of the judgment that shall befall them.

And when that days come, like Pharaoh in the old days, they will also come to fully know, like never before, who their god really is; for God, the living, will once again show the world who He really is.

About 40 days already, still the king did not do as Nineveh did but instead he hardened his heart as Pharaoh did. By his proclamation, he bares his heart and causes an awaited sign to come to pass.

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened. Or who is there among you, who, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, who will give him a serpent? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him! Therefore whatever you desire for men to do to you, you shall also do to them; for this is the law and the prophets.

"...the Spirit of God descending LIKE a dove..." (Mat. 3:16), but not a dove, only just in the LIKENESS or FORM of a dove bird so that the mind, through the physical eye, can have something to perceive of what actually happened in the unseen spiritual realm.

Because bird was created by God "...to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth..." (Gen. 7:3), the bird's function as propagator of plant life by means of seeds is the symbol of the function of the Holy Spirit as a propagator of spiritual life by means of God's seed (His Word).

Through a 3-step process, the bird propagates plant life that involve seeds of various kinds;

1. Eating (Taking In) - from its favourite varities of plants and trees, it eats the seed-bearing fruits together with the seeds.

2. Carrying (Internalizing) - as it fly from land to land the fruit's meat is metabolized, but the seeds remain in the stomach until expelled.

3. Expelling (Scattering) - as it stays on another land, it expells fertile substances from its body together with the seeds that remained in its stomach.

What God had planted in our hearts, when it starts to grow, will affect our entire being so much such that it will manifest in every aspect of our lives. Our mind will be full of thoughts that bring glory to Him.

---

The natural disasters occuring in our time represents the spiritual disasters happening in the world. The works of mercy and compassion we showed and gave to the suffering victims represent God's continual work of salvation carried out by His new body, the faithful servant-believers.

Commentary on the Parable of the Prodigal Son

Sometimes God will allow us to squander the blessings we asked from Him even though it violates His will and purpose for us. He knows that when we turn away from His plan for us, sooner or later the blessings we enjoyed for the moment will wear away.

God's plan is like a bonfire. Away from it there is darkness and coldness. Blessings and protection can only be experienced when one dwells within its circle.

When one abides in it, its light enables clear vision and right discernment even in the darkest night. Its heat keeps zeal warm, developing endurance even in the coldest season.

Being distant from it benefits less from its light, making sight vague and causes incorrect discernment. The less heat causes lukewarmness that leads to complacency.

In the dark, when one is groping, careless and confused; in the cold, when one is shivering, indifferent and bored; that is when one wanders away too far from the fire.

----------

Knowledge is the result of experience; living is the cause of it. In the confines of time, life can thrive only in a physical entity. As the natural sustains the physical, life maintains knowledge.

In the realm of good and evil, both attract against each other. Confined in time, the absence of one makes the other void and vain. Wisdom can thrive in that realm only if volition exists.

God is mighty and His wisdom overflows continually upon His elects. His eyes are brighter than the sun even at noonday. Therefore, let our intentions be pure so He may find our hearts blameless.

For you have been my help. I will rejoice in the shadow of your wings. My soul stays close to you. Your right hand holds me up. But those who seek my soul, to destroy it, Shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

As the Sower scatters in different portions varities of seeds on various grounds among diverse seasons, He knows beforehand which seeds will grow on which grounds and on what seasons. He also knows how much bounty will the different harvests be.

As every season ushers for the next, God makes and breaks according to His plan. When He causes the deep to froze, its surface hardens as stone. When He shoots lightnings accross the skies, the winds scatter on the earth.

When He causes rain on the wilderness, tender grass spring forth on the waste land. When He binds the cluster of the Pleiades, He loosens the cords of Orion. When He brings forth Mazzaroth in his season, He guides Arcturus with his siblings.

What the cynics deem useless, God will use to their shame. What the world considers loss, He will turn into opportunity. Hear this, you all serving the Lord: the days are ahead that a great necessity will prevail, endure and be not weary; for this need will usher time into a season of great harvest.

Behold, an epoch is coming. Be ready and be sanctified; for the Lord will set a season in time that will cause enough discomfort. In that while, be not overcome by despair but muster up the strength of the Spirit and be in where He leads.

Trust in the Lord for endurance, and He will be with you, and will bless you. To you, and to the people, He will fulfill His promise, and the Covenant shall continually be solemnified in the generations to come.

Remain in His authority. Keep His voice, keep His charge. Obey His commandments, His statutes, and His laws; and He will prosper all the labors of your hands and He will greatly multiply every seed that you will sow, and nations will be blessed.

My nation, consider this: We strive to be a disciple of democracy, yet most of us are weak in practicing its principles. We are blinded by cynicism that we resort to grumblings. We are quick with ideas, but we are slow in finding consensus in diversity.

"Majority rule", we say. But we twist it with schemes that we may rule the majority with our own idea. How long til we learn unity through sincerity? The Lord looks on our sincere intentions, though imperfect, He is ready to complement.

Weighing my brother on my scale only makes me heavier on his and his friends' scales. Judge one, and i will be judged by many. My loyalty to my brother ends when my loyalty to God ends.

The Lord is sending you a help, lest you wear away; for the burden is too heavy for you to carry alone. The Lord is strenghtening your limbs, therefore arise and shine. Trust in His goodness and you will know Him like never before.

Receive your brother. Listen to him; for he has a seasoned voice. Unite your own counsel with his and you will both resolve the matter. In the not-so-far time, you shall see the rain fall before the sunset comes.

Hear you spirit of the prophet that speaks in the windows of the world; for the Lord is against your words. Your mouth reveals your ancestor's mouth that destroyed Jacob's seeds. You preach, for you desire men's praise. You sow seeds of hatred instead of love. You want your flock saved, but you don't care about the gentiles. You cursed them with the words of scripture prophesies and you don't care even to warn them so that they may repent. You vainglorious servant, turn your way and do as Jonah did so that the gentiles too may be saved!

O Gentiles, who will cast eyes of mercy on you? How long will we despise you? When will Jonah come to rescue you? Father, forgive our selfishness and pride.

Tell your successs, and your enemy will hate you more. Praise his successs, and he will mock you of your failures. Ignore him, and he will destroy you. Destroy him, and you will become like him.

But forgive him, and he will be confounded. Care for him, and he will burn with shame. Love him, and he will become like you. In this world, the spiritualy weak will always dominate the spiritualy strong.

Wrong discernment is a fruit of lack of trust in the Lord. Lack of trust results from lack of wisdom. Fullness of wisdom is a virtue of a mature spirit. A spirit that can pray, "Father, not my will but Yours be done", is the same spirit as the Son.

Oh my Philippines, who can save you from the mire you are in?

Nation, hear your story:
Long ago, in the wilderness, you roamed with the beasts.
The Lord captured you with the might of a lion.
For 333 years He tamed you; and you abound in wisdom.
With the strength of an eagle, He carried you higher.
48 years of nurturing, your lore teemed and your tongue gained.
With the Covenant, you were sealed, making you His own.
With sky & clouds, with sun & stars,
with crimson & gold, your cloth are woven.
As the colors of Eleazar's garment, you were clothed.

In deep rough seas, you were an orient pearl;
and nations were drawn by your beauty.
But now, you are as a pebble in a brackish pond; for you have
lost your luster by ignoring the Lord your God.

Meditate now, O nation, consider your ways; for the Lord is chastening you.

-------
People of the nation, hearkn: Do we hear the devil's music, or the Lord's warning? Don't we know what a shofar is for? Then why do we keep on dancing to the din of its blast? How long will we keep on foolishly wrangling among ourselves?

Can't we see that this mistake is a mirror of our very own collective weakness that puts our nation in demagogy? Can any among us say, "Lord, honestly did i", then let him be the one. But none, for we all have corrupted ourselves with the bribes of spoilsmen and the lies of demagogs.

Don't we ought to humble ourselves before the Lord and repent so that He may heal our land? Fellowmen, let us grow in the spirit, lest we remain in this quagmire whoever will our leader be.

But don't despair, there is hope. Didn't you see the rare large-winged ants gather around the lights after the night's heavy downpour? Prepare and be worthy; for the Lord will prove us once more. He is preparing a time so we may rechoose honestly.

Nation, hear the contentions of the Lord: Herdsmen, why are you sleeping? Are your torches without fuel? Flocks, where are you heading? Have your shepherds left you in the night? Harvestmen, why do you sit under the trees? Are your sickles blunt?

Know the parable of this dream: A piece of old bone lay half sinked in a dry dung. The wind came and blew the dung away uncovering the bone, but lo, the bone was rather a shofar. Then poachers picked it up and blew it. The blast of its sound echoed on the hills & mountains and it shook them.

Woman, chosen of the Lord, listen. Be comforted, for your warfare will the Lord accomplish. Strengthen your heart for He will use your situation to convict the world of unrighteousness. Don't plan ahead what you shall say on the day of proving, lest the devil overtakes your thoughts. Instead, humble yourself. With your household & friends, fast & pray so that you will overcome. Listen to the dictates of the spirit inside of you, for the Lord will put in your heart the right words to say.

Don't appear needlessly in the proving council, but speak through a clean emissary. Let everyone involved be proven but let it be done reasonably quick. Let the provers do it in the fear of the Lord and let nothing be hidden intentionally, lest they themselves receive a double portion of the Lord's judgment.

This is the dream's parable: "piece of bone" is a specific type of strong deep corruption that has become a culture; "old" indicates it has been for many generations; "dung" are dirty tricks of concealment; "dry" means passage of time; "half sinked" means secretly known; "the wind came and blew the dung away uncovering the bone" means the Lord's appointed time of intervention has come; "the bone was rather a shofar" is the turning of the concealed corruption into an eminent scandal; "poachers" are sinister men; the "picking up & blowing of the showfar" is an exposé; "sound blast" is reproachful effect of the scandal; "hills & mountains" are world governments & organizations; "echo" means similarity of situation; "shaking" is an urge of the spirit for repentance.

Behold a vision from the spirit. Lo a marvelous pantheon! And an angel standing beside the steps of the altar of hewn stones said: "Break it on the top. Smite the lintels of its portals, that its pillars shall shake. Strike the thresholds til the smogs ascend from the earth's nostrils and fire issues from its gapes; that the beasts of the land shriek."

Hearken you shepherds, leaders, and authorities of the land; for your season has come. Behold, the Lord has exposed the nakedness of the nation. Strive to set your eyes beyond the smogs, the fire, and the ruins. Do that which the Lord has annointed you for; that you and your people shall turn away from transgressions.

Remember that six dark seasons had been appointed, yes, even seven. Yet the Lord shall tilt the earth once more towards the sun before the equinox comes.

Fret not yourself because of sinister men; though they lay wait against your abode & plot the destruction of your rod that they may cause you to fall seven times, yet I will raise you up again. But they that devised your downfall shall I overthrow by mischief.

I see the burdens of your heart and hear the groanings of your soul; for they are unto Me as the smoke of an incense. Hold on to your hope My child; for verily I say unto you, sunset shall not come till you behold the rain.

April 28, 2005

Behold, I breathed in you fullness of the spirit. Grieve him not and he will guide you prudently into the place I had long prepared for you. Full is the moon, the night on your concecration; so shall the number of your days be fulfilled.

I taught your hands skills, so that your arms do bend a bow of brass. Your shots are farther than Ishmael's or the Benjamites'. With unseen arrows will you hit your aims that they be confounded and be caught off-guard; for My Words are your arrows.

For My Son's sake, the time has come to break the curse that Ham brought upon his children. As I had given Jacob a new name and freed Israel from Pharaoh, so will I wake Kedar from slumber, cloth her and give her drink. I will buy her out from slavery and gather her into My fold; and they will dwell in tents no more.

In the past, the Lord took a seed from the vine of Zion. With the blood of His martyrs, He bought a field by the river, and there planted the seed. Behold, it has now become a great vine and has grown many branches that spread unto the nations and yield so much fruits.

Rejoice, you lonesome flock: for by the passing of your shepherd, the Lord reveals His glory and made manifest the workings of His Spirit; so the world may remember that you are an elder child among His children.

Flock, fast and pray as the herdsmen gather together. Behold, the spirit hovers above the smudges. To him whose light shines most brightly shall the mantle be casted. A double portion of the spirit will the Lord bestow upon him.

Discern the tactics of the devil for it is subtle.

To you it is given to know the mysteries of the message, but to the rest in parables; that hearing, they may be stirred to learn.

The message is this: the snare is a big war awaiting to happen; the decoy is the minor conflict used to lure the govt; the foresight is spiritual discernment; the sword is the armed offensive; the sharp arrows are the people stirred by the Lord to help the govt; the sharpened head is the wisdom imparted to those the Lord called; the bow is your authority; the enemy is the grievances of your blood brothers.
