\\   The Chosen   //

God’s written word concerning the chosen (the called).  

In the King James translation

1 Corinthians 1:26  For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

27   But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

28  And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:

29  That no flesh should glory in his presence.   (KJV)

 -  ><>  -  ><>  -   -  <><  -  <><  -

In the Living translation 

 1 Corinthians  1:26  Remember, dear brothers and sisters, that few of you were wise in the world's eyes, or powerful, or wealthy when God called you.

27  Instead, God deliberately chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose those who are powerless to shame those who are powerful.

28  God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important,

29  so that no one can ever boast in the presence of God.   (NLT)

Peter & John   Acts Chapter 3   A lame man healed.

1A Peter and John went to the Temple..

2 As they approached the Temple, a man lame from birth was being carried in. Each day he was put beside the Temple gate, the one called the Beautiful Gate, so he could beg from the people going into the Temple.

3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for some money.

Down to verse six

6 But Peter said, "I don't have any money for you. But I'll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!"

7 Then Peter took the lame man by the right hand and helped him up. And as he did, the man's feet and anklebones were healed and strengthened.

8 He jumped up, stood on his feet, and began to walk! Then, walking, leaping, and praising God, he went into the Temple with them.

9    All the people saw him walking and heard him praising God.

10   When they realized he was the lame beggar they had seen so often at the Beautiful Gate, they were absolutely astounded! (NLT)

Scribe note: This did not go over good with the temple leadership.

Peter &  John were arrested.

Acts 4:1 Now as they spoke to the people, the priests, the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees came upon them,

Acts 4:3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in custody until the next day, for it was already evening.

Acts 4:5 And it came to pass, on the next day, that their rulers, elders, and scribes,

6 as well as Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the family of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.

7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, "By what power or by what name have you done this?"

down to verse 13

Acts 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus. (NKJ)

Scribe note:  The thing I find interesting is God could have used Annas the high priest, and or the ones in charge of the temple but he didn’t.  He used uneducated, untrained Peter and John.

Paul describing what others said about  him in 

2 Corinthians 10:10  "For his letters," they say, "are weighty and powerful, but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible." (NKJ)  

 In the next chapter Paul then goes on to say...

2 Corinthians 11:6 Even though I am untrained in speech, yet I am not in knowledge. But we have been thoroughly manifested among you in all things. (NKJ)

 Gideon considered himself small and not a mighty warrior but look at what God did through him.  

Judges  7:7-21

7        Then the LORD said to Gideon, "By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place."

8        So the people took provisions and their trumpets in their hands. And he sent away all the rest of Israel, every man to his tent, and retained those three hundred men. Now the camp of Midian was below him in the valley.

9        It happened on the same night that the LORD said to him, "Arise, go down against the camp, for I have delivered it into your hand.

10      "But if you are afraid to go down, go down to the camp with Purah your servant,

11      "and you shall hear what they say; and afterward your hands shall be strengthened to go down against the camp." Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outpost of the armed men who were in the camp.

12      Now the Midianites and Amalekites, all the people of the East, were lying in the valley as numerous as locusts; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the seashore in multitude.

13      And when Gideon had come, there was a man telling a dream to his companion. He said, "I have had a dream: To my surprise, a loaf of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian; it came to a tent and struck it so that it fell and overturned, and the tent collapsed."

14      Then his companion answered and said, "This is nothing else but the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel! Into his hand God has delivered Midian and the whole camp."

15      And so it was, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshiped. He returned to the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise, for the LORD has delivered the camp of Midian into your hand."

16      Then he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and he put a trumpet into every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and torches inside the pitchers.

17      And he said to them, "Look at me and do likewise; watch, and when I come to the edge of the camp you shall do as I do:

18          "When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then you also blow the trumpets on every side of the whole camp, and say, 'The sword of the LORD and of Gideon!'"

19      So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outpost of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just as they had posted the watch; and they blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers that were in their hands.

20      Then the three companies blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers-- they held the torches in their left hands and the trumpets in their right hands for blowing-- and they cried, "The sword of the LORD and of Gideon!"

21      And every man stood in his place all around the camp; and the whole army ran and cried out and fled.  (NKJ)

Going forward for this to all happen God requires obedience.

Interesting enlightenment came in the Spirit on 4-10-2022 am worship service

For there are always three forces working in every generation.  You have those that are walking in My Spirit realm, you have those that are unbelievers and you have the devils crowd.  Now in every church the devil has two angels assigned to every single person, they report to him what you’re doing and many of you serve him and know it not.  But you also have your angels that are there to protect you and keep you safe, there is no confusion between the two, there is war, yes, there is war, but the war is also contained to the point that they never overcome and you always overcome.

The two witnesses & Babylon, an interesting time line.  

A couple of things shared with us by the Holy Spirit and of coarse the written Word.

The word

Revelation 11:2 "But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot for forty-two months.

3 "And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth." (NKJ)

-  ><>  -  ><>  -   -  <><  -  <><  -

Scribe note:  What is that in years? At  365 days in a year  Roughly 31/2 yrs or less.  The object of looking at this is not to pinpoint a date but rather looking at the season we are living in. 

-  ><>  -  ><>  -   -  <><  -  <><  -

The Spirit  the (Rhema) word

On 5-31-2020 in the am service this word came.  That is why I am not speaking to Israel at the moment, they have hardened their hearts, they have the two witnesses now that have been speaking to them for a very long time, you have only known about it yourself a short time, but they have been spoken to for a long time now trying to bring them back into the safety of the fold.  But they don’t want to give up their old life, etc

Babylon -  NYC

:: 11-24-18 pm service etc when you see the witnesses and know that they are there know that you have less, less than three years and the revival shall come right after New York City is destroyed and you shall see that revival.    You shall see it before the West Coast falls into the ocean or the waters back up and America is divided into half.  Because these things shall now take place, saith your Father God, for you don’t have four years, etc

The written  word

Revelation 18:19-21 verse 19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.  verse 20  Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

verse 21        And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. (KJV) 

The spirit  [rhema] word

:: 5-18-14 am service (third word)  ::  ::  ::]

  -  ><>  -  ><>  -   -  <><  -  <><  -

-  ><>  -  ><>  -   -  <><  -  <><  -

make their way to my house.  And they shall call upon me and you shall see that great revival before the time runs out.  Therefore,

GOD TELLS US IN HIS WORD WHAT HE WILL DO FOR US.  AFTER THAT HE DEALS WITH US ON THE BASIS OF WHAT WE DO WITH IT.    --   FRED PRICE

Disbelief says that's not God's Spirit speaking.  Why do they say that?  

They don't want to do it, it takes an effort on their part.  Will they be used by God with an attitude like that, maybe in a small way but how many crowns will they lay at Jesus feet?
