“And the nations were angry,

and thy wrath is come,

and the time of the dead,

that they should be judged,

and that thou shouldest give reward

unto…them that fear thy name, small and great”

Revelation 11:18 (Condensed)

FLOWER POWER? NOT SO MUCH!

.

Can you believe it? At the writing of this devotional (2017), it has been over 50 years since the Summer of Love in San Francisco!

.

Remember that?

.

Well, most people were born in the years following that notable event.

.

But it was a real effort by that young generation to engage in brotherly love at a time when America was at war.

.

Everything was peace and love!

.

Flowers were given as a symbol of peace and love!

“LOVE SHMOVE!”

.

Well, it wasn’t long until that movement went the way of almost every movement.

.

And the world returned back to its normal push-and-shove ways, now even more skeptical of any so-called, “peace and love” rhetoric.

^“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.”

Matthew 24:12, 13

.

This above prophecy by Jesus seems to be now finding its fulfillment.

.

As we look around, we are amazed and confounded by the firestorm of hate-fueled, crime-filled violence in the world, and even in the former Christian nations.

.

Law and order are giving way to a corrupt judicial system.

.

Law enforcement agencies are prevented from doing their job, even demonized, attacked, and defunded.

.

The schools have groomed young people to hate, based upon skin-color…

.

…and groomed into intolerance of opposing political/religious ideologies, and even against orthodox morality!

.

Consequently, this prophecy from Matthew 24:12, 13 is just another evidence that the Bible is verily, the infallible “Word of Truth”. John 17:17.

“And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.”

Revelation 13:11

.

Having said all this, let’s give credit where credit is truly due.

.

Oh yes, the media bears great responsibility for fomenting so much of today’s anger, racism, violence, distrust, and intolerance.

.

And yet, Bible prophecy foretold of Satan’s role as the False Prophet which would have “two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon”.

.

Yes, Lucifer, now as “the Prince of the Power of the Air”, works through unsaved humans to stir up the masses via the press, and the electronic media. (Ephesians 2:2)

.

As a matter of fact, Satan mostly controls the various educational platforms, working through unwary human instruments.

“AND A MAN SHALL BE AS AN HIDING PLACE”

Isaiah 32:2

.

But today’s devotional, while shining the spotlight on the tragic condition of today’s world, would also like to reveal the way of escape from all this insane hatred.

.

We don’t have to be consumed by hate.

.

Yes, there is a way of escape, which is found in Isaiah 26:20, 21…

…”Come, My people,

enter thou into thy chambers,

and shut thy doors about thee:

hide thyself as it were for a little moment,

until the indignation be overpast.

For, behold, the LORD cometh out of His place

to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity:

the earth also shall disclose her blood,

and shall no more cover her slain.”

.

Yes, as this above verse reveals, there is, “a hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest;” Isaiah 32:30.

.

“For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion:

in the secret of His tabernacle shall He hide me;

He shall set me up upon a Rock.

And now shall mine head be lifted up

above mine enemies round about me:

therefore will I offer in His tabernacle sacrifices of joy;

I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.”

Psalm 27:5, 6

TODAY’S HEAVENLY SIGN

 

.

.

.

.

THE FLOWER OF THE FIELD CONSTELLATION

.

.

 

This is perhaps one of the most amazing constellations that God has created!

.

It truly looks like a flower, and appears to be blowing in the direction of westward.

.

But as autumn draws near, this constellation appears to bow itself down, just like the flowers of Earth bow down, at the summer’s end.

.

And these are not merely obscure stars! No! These are among the biggest and brightest stars in the night heavens!

 

.

The Two Turtle-Doves Constellation is also known as Sagittarius .

.

The Flower of the Field is commonly known as Scorpio .

.

But there is another obvious aspect to this constellation group.

.

Notice that the birds are flying in the same direction as the flower is bending; it is as if the east wind is blowing these heavenly messengers…

.

“The wind blows where it desires, and you hear the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it comes, and where it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit. John 3:8.

.

So here is another incredible Bible concept, written in the heavens! And God has spoken of these signs!

.

Listen… “For ever, O LORD, Thy Word is settled in heaven.” Psalm 119:89

.

.

.

.

WHY IS THIS FLOWER POINTING UPWARD?

 

.

Do you see the long blade of grass growing from the base of the Flower of the Field?

.

This grass blade is made of the two highest stars of the Lupus Constellation, and the two lowest stars of the Libra Constellation.

.

As this Wikipedia star-chart shows, the flower appears to be pointing to Arcturus and the Revelation 12 Woman (shown in sketch below).

.

Arcturus represents Jesus, as He leads His sons (and daughters) on a spiritual journey up a heavenward pathway, as is written… “Canst you bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or can you guide Arcturus with his sons?” Job 38:32.
