Daily Devotional, Year 3 – August 25

The False Prophet,
.
Part 19:
“Destroyed For A Lack of Knowledge!”
To read Part 1 of this series, click here… “JANUARY 26 (The False Prophet, Part 1: Lying Eyes!)”

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge:
because thou hast rejected knowledge,
I will also reject thee,
that thou shalt be no priest to me:
seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God,
I will also forget thy children.”
Hosea 4:6
.
.
.
.
.
.
Unfortunately, the people of God have allowed Satan to keep them so busy in the world that they are greatly ignorant of Bible wisdom and knowledge, to the point that they are deceived on many Bible truths and doctrines.
.
This above verse sadly describes the current condition of God’s people…“Destroyed for a lack of knowledge”

“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect”
Matthew 24:24
.
Often is the case, that instead of studying the Bible for themselves they simply turn on the TV or radio and allow false shepherds to tell them what to believe.
.
Yes, Satan’s preferred method of deceiving God’s true worshipers, is to raise up very charming personalities, who mingle 80% truth with 20% soul-destroying deceptions!

LIKE THEM OF OLDEN TIMES
.
Of course, this was the same condition which existed back in Old Testament times.
.
The people of God were unschooled in Scripture, and allowed the leaders of that day to tell them what to believe.
.
Listen…“As for My people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O My people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.” Isaiah 3:12
.
It is not some little cult which is misleading God’s people. It is the leaders of mainstream Christianity who are silent concerning our great Bible ignorance of the people, as this above verse reveals!
.
It is the leaders of mainstream Christendom which are causing God’s people to go astray!

“OPEN REBUKE IS BETTER THAN HIDDEN LOVE!”
Proverbs 27:5
.
Instead of the current complicit deadly silence by today’s leadership, there should have been a constant rebuking of God’s people, to let us know that God is not tolerating our low level of piety and lack of Bible wisdom!

“WHEN FOR THE TIME YE OUGHT TO BE TEACHERS!”
.
On the other hand, the Apostle, Paul rebukes God’s people, telling us that instead of our current ignorance, we should rather have already attained to teacher status…“For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.” Hebrews 5:12
.
Here is a sharp rebuke of our great ignorance in these last days.

UNSCHOOLED SPIRITUAL WEAKLINGS
.
And isn’t it true that Satan has successfully diverted God’s people from our great and high and holy calling, mis-leading us instead into all sorts of worldly pleasures and ambitious pursuits: clubs, novels, radio, television, sports, high-paying careers, games, school events, parties, hobbies, plays, music concerts, frequent sight-seeing excursions, buying-and-selling, and a host of other time-consuming and energy-sapping pursuits!
.
If only we had pursued the knowledge and wisdom of God’s Word with the same gusto that we’ve pursued the above mentioned pleasures and worldly treasures, we would now be a vast army of Apostle Pauls!
.
But sadly, we are now a nation of biblically unschooled, spiritual weaklings!

OUR DAY OF DELIVERANCE IS COME!
.
Well, in spite of our sad condition before God, He has graciously allowed us one last moment of triumph!
.
Yes, even as Samson repented of his former wasted life of vain earthly pursuits, so also, God’s people must use our remaining hours to good account, as we ready ourselves for one last glorious moment of triumph over our present-day “Philistine” captors (spiritually speaking)!

DESTROYING THE PILLARS OF SATAN’S KINGDOM!
.
And with the same intense resolve that resulted in Samson throwing down those pagan pillars, so too, the Church must throw down the pillars of Satan’s kingdom of this antichrist world, which has taken us captive and rendered God’s Church ineffective!
.
Yes, the prophecy of Samson is actually the foretelling of the true Church in these last moments of history, as we plead to God to strengthen us one last time, to avenge ourselves of Satan’s persecution and deceptions!

“In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver,
and his idols of gold,
which they made each one for himself to worship,
to the moles and to the bats;
To go into the clefts of the Rocks…
for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of His majesty,
when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth.”
Isaiah 2:20, 21

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN
.
.
.
THE VALLEY OF DECISION CONSTELLATION GROUP
.
“Multitudes, multitudes in the ‘Valley of Decision’…
.
for the day of the Lord is near in the ‘Valley of Decision’.”
.
.
“The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining…
.
“The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem…
.
“And the heavens and the earth shall shake…
.
“But the LORD will be the hope of His people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
.
Joel 3:14-16
.
.
.
.
.
LOCATING THIS CONSTELLATION GROUP…
.
“Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.” Micah 4:1, 2
.
.
Look eastward in the early summer through fall. Find the Cassiopeia Constellation. Cassiopeia is the Mount of Blessing. In the sketch, it is the farthest mountain to the left. In the sky, it is the northern-most of these three mountains when facing eastward. It resembles a pyramid.
.
Then find the second pyramid to its right (south).
.
Then go a little further south to the next third pyramid. The third snow-cap is the Destroying Mountain Constellation.
.
These three pyramids are the snow-capped portion of these three mountains in this sketch. (of course, you won’t see the snow-caps in the sky. They are just an embellishment in this sketch to present a concept-EDITOR).
.
.
.
THE VALLEY OF DECISION CONSTELLATION GROUP. They appear in mid-summer in the eastern skies in pre-dawn hours. These are made of Cassiopeia (mount on left), and various stars from the Andromeda Constellation (valley) Pegasus (Mount of Cursing (middle mount) & Destroying Mount (right)), and Pisces (Broad Way to Hell). The galaxy which appears to be climbing the Mountain of Blessing is the Andromeda Galaxy.
.
The above Wikipedia star-chart shows this amazing constellation group as it appears from June to fall, just prior to the winter constellation group. Actually, these Valley of Decision Constellations appear in early summer in the pre-dawn hours. (Editor of this website has sketched in this constellation group onto this above Wikipedia star-chart.)
