Encounter With Jesus Christ: End of Time Warnings (Completed), Regina Clarinda [management books to read .txt] 📗

spoke again, saying, "Those who hear My words and obey them, they are like a firm rock. When the winds blow and a violent storm arises, they remain steadfast in their faith and hope. They shall not be swept away, either by the fierce waves of worldly temptations or by the waves of infliction.

“They shall not fall when the winds of deceptions blow and beat against them. They shall not be moved, as they have set their love upon Me. As firm as a rock they will stand to the end."

Jesus has said it all. We must be as firm as a rock that stands unmoved when the rain falls and the floods come and the winds blow and beat against us. God wants us to have unshakable faith and continuing hope in Him. It is the foundation for a victorious life.

And I believe what Jesus said earlier was intended for you too. You too are as firm as a rock. We are as firm as a rock if we trust God and be faithful until the end.

We must keep standing firm in our faith, be stronger everyday, and never ever lose hope!

Do Not Worry About Tomorrow

Jesus looked up to the sky. It was a sunny day. The sky was bright blue with white fluffy clouds adorning it here and there. A flock of birds was flying in the sky.

Jesus pointed to the birds and He said, "Look at the birds of the air, they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they?”

His words were exactly as written in Matthew 6:26. It was a blessing to hear it directly.

I always amazed at His words. It made me wonder, if the situation was similar when He spoke to the crowds thousands of years ago. Did He look up to the sky too at that time, and saw the birds, when He was teaching them about not to worry?

How charming is our Savior. How I adore Him. His beautiful hair fluttered in the wind. I was charmed by Him completely. I could imagine His disciples and the crowds that followed Him must be awed too by His charisma and everything about Him. Jesus is so glorious and enchanting in every way.

"The birds sow not,” Jesus said again, “neither do they reap, nor gather into barns, yet your Father feedeth them.”

He looked at me and said, "Tell My children, that they do not have to worry about what they shall eat, or what they shall drink, or what they shall wear. Father knows well everything they need.

“They must seek first of all His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto them.

“The circumstances may get more difficult but Father shall provide everything His children need. It shall be given to them. I say unto you, every need shall be supplied.”

Jesus embraced me then kissed my forehead.

"You are beautiful," He said softly, "My daughter, you are precious in My sight. I love you."

Tears rolled down my face. His love touched my heart so deeply. Jesus wiped my tears away with His fingers.

"I love you too my Savior," I whispered. I could hardly speak. The joy from the feeling of being loved was overwhelming.

I laid my head on His shoulder. Jesus embraced me again then kissed me on my head.

This togetherness is truly priceless. I treasure every moment spent with Jesus.

Jesus has the sweetest love. His love is the purest. Jesus loves us so much that while we were still sinners, He died for us.

Our God is full of compassion. He loves us so much that He lets us be called His children, as we truly are. God is tender and compassionate to those who fear Him.

Jesus looked happy when He embraced me. He often showed affection when I was with Him.

In fact, this is what happens when we worship God. This is why God wants us to worship Him in spirit and in truth.

God is a Spirit. We must worship Him in spirit and in truth. When our spirits yearn and wait upon the Lord, He will encounter us. And He would show sweet affection.

Our God is compassionate and affectionate. He loves to show affection to us because we are His children and He loves us as a father.

You may not realize it but this is what happens when you worship Jesus in spirit and in truth. The Holy Spirit will express His love to you in spirit, to your spirit.

He would hold you in His arms, and kiss you on the cheek or forehead, stroke your hair and kiss it with great affection, wipe your tears away with His fingers, and say how He loves you and you don’t have to worry about anything because He takes care of you and protects you.

Sometimes it feels so real.

Grimy Children with Beautiful Eyes

We left the beach afterwards, and walked to the next place. The Lord said the place was near.

We walked about thirty yards when the Lord stopped.

He pointed forward. "Look over there.”

I looked where Jesus was pointing and saw a group of children not too far away. I walked over to them.

There were around thirty young children, boys and girls aged around 4 to 8 years old. Some were sitting on the ground and some were squatting. Not one child was standing.

Everyone was looking down. It turned out they were busy playing. They didn’t play together but each played alone.

I looked more closely to find out what they were playing. The kids didn’t notice me at all.

I didn’t see any toys in their little hands. It turned out they were playing with the soil. They were digging in soil. And they did it with their bare hands, instead of using shovels or scoops. Their little hands were quite nimble at digging.

There were many small holes in the ground as a result of their digging. Then I noticed they weren’t just playing with the soil, but it seemed they were looking for something in the ground.

What are they looking for? I wondered.

Deftly they kept scratching and scraping the ground. These kids were so filthy. Soil and mud soiled their clothes, hands, and feet. Even on their faces and hair too. They were dirty from head to toe.

These children didn’t pay attention to anything else other than just scratching the ground. They were so focused on digging and never moved from their positions. Every child was busy scratching and digging. Again I wondered, what were they trying to find?

I looked closer.

And I was shocked.

The soil was full of worms that were wiggling and slimy. It was disgusting!

But the children weren’t disgusted or bothered by the worms at all. They kept digging and digging without a break, trying to find something in that wormy ground.

Worms were everywhere. I saw them all over the soil surface, and all over these children’s hands, feet, clothes, and hair as well!

"Are they unaware of the worms because they’re too busy digging? And what exactly are they trying to find?” I muttered to myself.

Questions were running through my mind. I needed to ask the Lord about it.

But I couldn’t find Jesus by my side. I looked around and was surprised to find Him standing quite far, about 20 yards behind me. It was strange because He is usually never that far from me.

Then I noticed this area had two different sections. The first section was a beautiful green pasture, and the other section was the wormy land.

The children were on the wormy land, while I was standing on the green pastures area. I was pretty close to the children. If I took one or two more steps forward, I would enter the wormy land. I stood at the edge of the pasture.

There was a forest located roughly 15 yards behind these children. The forest was dense and dark, filled with tall trees close to each other. It was a very large forest. Anyone could easily get lost in there.

Jesus still stood at a distance. I looked at Him, waiting for His words.

"My daughter," the Lord spoke at last, "these children symbolize those who do not let Me work in their lives. They are always too busy for Me because they prioritize their own interests and desires above all else.”

The Lord’s voice was heard clearly as if He stood close to me.

"Day and night they pursue worldly desires and never set aside time for Me. They know the Word but only listen to the Word without obeying it and being a doer of it.

"They keep digging to find something that does not exist, yet they never realize it. Futility is what they shall obtain in the end. I say unto you, worldly desires can never be satisfied. And wealth and treasure cannot be kept forever.

"As you can see there, they dig ceaselessly. They dig and keep digging but never find what they are looking for. As a result they only defile themselves with dirt and worms.

“My daughter, those who pursue worldly desires are like this. They soil themselves with sins while trying to obtain happiness, comfort, and prosperity from the world. They seek it from the wrong source. The world cannot give anything. It is passing away, perishing with all its desires and greed.”

"The world can only offer false and fake happiness. It is not real, like a shadow. Many people are chasing it; they try to catch it in their hands. But when they think they have it, the shadow disappears from their hands. Many people think they have it, but in truth, they do not. For it is not possible for the world to give true joy and comfort and contentment to men.

"The more one loves the world, the more he defiles himself with sins. People like this are symbolized as young children because they never grow spiritually. They call themselves Christians, yet they refuse to grow in faith as My disciples. They are not My disciples.”

Jesus started to walk heading this way. As He looked at the children, I saw a glimpse of sadness in His eyes. I knew Jesus loves them so much and all He wanted was for them to stop digging and spend time with Him.

Jesus kept stepping forward.

But when He was about 5 yards more to the children, Jesus stopped abruptly.

He paused for a few seconds, then started to walk again. Slowly and carefully this time.

The Lord inched forward very slowly, it seemed He was trying not to make a sound.

Jesus was getting closer. He was now only 3 yards away from me and the children. Then He stopped again.

He reached out His hands to the children from where He was. Oh how He longs so much to hold them in His arms!

Not one child was aware of His presence. Everyone was still busy digging.

The Lord stepped again, this time even more carefully. He was closer now.

Some of the children lifted their heads and saw Him.

Jesus stopped right away knowing they noticed Him. They stared at Jesus, then they frowned at Him.

A few seconds later, the rest of the children turned to Jesus at the same time. They frowned at Him too.

These young children weren’t pleased to see the Lord. Rather annoyed they seemed.

Jesus took another step forward.

All at once the children took one step backwards. They moved backwards while still squatting.

The Lord reached out His hands to them again as He took another step forward. And they took another step backwards. The closer Jesus got, the more they backed away.

Jesus stopped approaching.

He then turned to me and said, "I don’t want them to keep moving backwards. If I keep approaching, they would run into that forest.” He pointed to the forest located not too far behind the children. “It is very dangerous; many wild beasts and ferocious animals are there."

The forest was dark and looked frightening indeed. For some reason I felt that it was waiting for the children to enter it.

I could
