Shalom and Blessings;
What a sick and perverse world we live in. The Lord destroyed Sodom because of their ADULTERY, WICKEDNESS and their PRIDE; do you think we might be next?
Jeremiah {23:14}: In the prophets of Jerusalem also I have seen a horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies; and they strengthen the hands of evil-doers, so that none returns from his wickedness: they are all of them become unto Me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
Isaiah {13:19}: And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
It is scary to think that these elements; lies, adultery, wickedness, evil and pride, exist right now in our present day and are not only operating among the general population but among our leadership. Evil has become good and good evil, but worst of all evil is being publicly flaunted and celebrated. From what I understand the Lord waited for the fullness of wickedness to be present before destroying the Canaanites and Sodom and Gomorrah. The question then is how close are we to our fullness of wickedness? I do not know about you but I am sure happy that I am saved – born again in Yeshua HaMashiach (the Messiah).
Psalm {37:12}: The wicked plots against the righteous and grinds his teeth at him; {37:13} but the Lord laughs at the wicked, knowing his day will come. {37:14} The wicked have unsheathed their swords, They have strung their bows to bring down the poor and needy, to slaughter those whose way is upright. {37:15} But their swords will pierce their own hearts, and their bows will be broken. {37:16} Better the little that the righteous has than the wealth of all the wicked. {37:17} For the arms of the wicked will be broken, but the Lord upholds the righteous. {37:18} The Lord knows what the wholehearted suffer, but their inheritance lasts forever. {37:19} They will not be distressed when times are hard; when famine comes, they will have plenty. {37:20} For the wicked will perish; the Lord's enemies will be like sheep fat, ending up as smoke, finished. {37:21} The wicked borrows and does not repay, but the righteous is generous and gives. {37:22} For those blessed by the Lord will inherit the land, but those cursed by Him will be cut off.

Hi Ellen here…yes a very tumultuous time indeed. Please be strengthened and encouraged because our God is BIGGER than all these things. It is a special time by which we need to see with spiritual eyes and not rely on the physical. This is also a special time to hunker down and pray for our leadership. I think that we need to release to the Lord His choice and not judge. God will not allow anyone to come into power that He has already chosen from the beginning of time. Even at its bleakest moment our God reigns supreme and he will choreograph every outcome to line up with His will and His plan. Remember my favorite Scripture…We know the plans He has for us are for a future and a hope and not of calamity, Jeremiah 29: 11-15. We love you Lord and we love you…blessings in Yeshua!
Yours in Messiah Yeshua; our Lord, our God, our soon coming King;
Rabbi Jack & Ellen
