    Gods Reign in America is about to begin. Have you all prepared your arks yet? Noah's Ark has always been referred to by man as being a boat. It is not a boat people. No--ah was a PREACHER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS; he was NOT a boat builder. We have alot of ANIMAL LIKE actions and behaviors or WAYS in this country this very moment. Look at the mess that all these people after the likeness of an Animal are making out of this country. Why we even have people who are called snakes here in America. Preachers do not build boats--they build spiritual and ethical principles. Can a preacher who has no experience whatsoever build a boat 3 STORIES high in 7 days without any blueprints? Could you? That answer is TRULY NO. Preachers build ARKS OF PROMISES. Noah built the Ark of the Covenant. The BIBLE teaches us that if we live our lives according to the WORD OF GOD we will have a happier and better life. Preachers help build SUPREME CHARACTERS AND SUPREME LIVES for our mother country, America and Our Father, Almighty God to be proud of. But if you all SEE A BOAT SEALED UP IN YOUR FOREHEADS as you are reading or hearing the WORD OF GOD, and it helps you all live your lives AFTER THE LIKENESS OF GOD OR JESUS than the WORD OF GOD has come to pass. The book of Revelations is all about "the SEALS" This is what it is talking about people. Things are SEALED in our foreheads. Can the SEALS be loosened? A seal is an impression. Now we were all UNDER THE IMPRESSION that the story of Noah's ark was about God bringing a flood of waters upon the earth to destroy all the wicked and corrupt people and only 8 people were saved. Well, that is NOT THE WAY that the GOD of the BIBLE does things. The WORDS OF GOD doesn't kill people--The word of God gives us the skills and the tools to use to kill the wicked and evil spirits that are living inside of mans bodies. He is not a God who commands Thou shalt not kill and then he turns around and kills someone. There are two kinds of GODS. God the SPIRIT or GOD THE MAN. So when you see the WORD GOD in the Bible which one is it? They both have POWER but you have to rightly divide the WORD of GOD. Now I bet that it was sealed in your foreheads that everytime God is mentioned in the Bible its God the Father. NOPE--most of the time it is GOD THE HUMAN MAN. God the Spirit has Spiritual Power--God the MAN has fleshy POWER. Revelations means a drastic disclosure. What I am telling you is DRASTIC. It is stuff that you've never heard before so why should you believe me? Well you should NEVER believe what another man on earth may tell you until you know for yourself that it is an absolute TRUTH. Now GODS REIGN IS COMMING and His REIGN will shortly come to pass. Are you ready for the reign? I am so ready for Gods Reign TO come in America. I am ready for his REIGN to come take away all these corrupt, evil and Wicked IDEAS out of our country. I am so ready for His Reign to take the SEXUALLY NATURED things out of my grandchildrens SIGHTS AND OUT OF THEIR MINDS. I am so ready for His REIGN to take the UNGODLY IMPRESSIONS that our BROADCASTING STATIONS have made on our childrens minds forever out of our country. This UNGODLY INFLUENCE is no good for our country!! We are better than that. No people--We are the ones who will vote in who we want to be our NEXT FATHER IMAGE FOR AMERICA for the next 4 years. Now what is it going to be--God the Spirit OR God THE MAN. Myself--I am going to vote for the GODLY SPIRITED MAN who said May GOD bless you, your family and MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA. And this GODLY MAN MEANT IT!! And this TOO shall COME TO PASS! Praise GOD!! Our prayers are being answered! 2012 IS THE YEAR OF THE BIBLE

    TRUTH OF PROPHECY- YOU SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE Praise you Yahweh in the name of Jesus I Timothy 1:7-10 We know that the law is good, if any man use it lawfully;knowing this, that the law is Not made for the righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslyers, for fornicators, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine. II Timothy 1:7,9-10 For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love and of a sound mind. Who has saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in CHRIST JESUS BEFORE THE WORLD BEGAN. But has been made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus, who has abolished death, and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. II Timothy 3:1-7 Know this, that in the last days perilous times shall come.For men shall be lovers of their own selves, money lovers, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self control,brutal, despisers of good people.traitors, reckless,highminded, lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God; having the form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. For this sort are they which creep into houses and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with diffferent lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. II Timothy 4:2-5 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears. And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist,make full proof of thy ministry. I Thessalonians 4:15-18 5:2-4,4,9 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord,that we which are alive unto the coming of the Lord shall not precede them which are asleep in the grave. For the Lord Jesus shall sescend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of Yahweh: and the dead IN CHRIST WHALL RISE FIRST: THEN WE WHICH ARE ALIVE SHALL BE CAUGHT UP TOGETHER WITH THEM IN THE CLOUDS, TO MEET THE LORD IN THE AIR; and so shall we always be with the Lord forevermore.For yourselves know perfectly well that the day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night. For when they. say PEACE AND SAFETY; THEN SUDDEN DESTRUCTION COMES UPON THEM AND THEY SHALL NOT ESCAPE. But YOU, bretheren,are NOT in darkness, that THAT day should overtake you as a thief. For YAHWEH HAS NOT APPOINTED US TO WRATH, BUT TO OBTAIN SALVATION BY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. Revelation 3:10-11 BECAUSE you have kept my command to persevere, I ALSO WILL KEEP YOU FROM THE HOUR OF TRIAL, WHICH SHALL COME "UPON ALL THE WORLD", TO TEST "THEM THAT DWELL UPON THE EARTH" Behold, I come quickly hold fast which you have, that no man take your crown of life. Matthew 24:5-8,14-15,21-22,27 For many shall come in my name, saying I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be NOT troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in various places. All these ARE the beginning of sorrows. The gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a WITNESS UNTO ALL NATIONS; AND THEN THE END COMES. WHEN YOU SHALL SEE THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION SPOKEN OF BY DANIEL THE PROPHET,STAND IN THE HOLY PLACE... FOR THEN SHALL THE GREAT TRIBULATION, SUCH AS WAS NOT SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD TO THIS TIME, NO, NOR EVER SHALL BE. Except those day should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: BUT FOR THE ELECT'S SAKE THOSE DAYS SHALL BE SHORTENED.For as the lightning comes out of the east and flashes unto the west; so shall the final coming of the Son of man be. Revelation 13:1,3-8,11-12,14-17 I stood upon the sand of the sea and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads a blasphemous name.And I saw one of his heads had been wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and ALL THE WORLD MARVELED AT THE BEAST. And they worshiped the dragon which gave authority unto the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who IS like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. And he opened his mouth in BLASPHEMY AGAINST YAHWEH, TO BLASPHEME HIS NAME, AND HIS TABERNACLE, AND THEM THAT DWELL IN HEAVEN. And it was given unto him to make war with THE SAINTS, AND TO OVERCOME THEM: and authority was given him over all tribes and tongues and nations. And all THAT DWELL UPON THE EARTH SHALL WORSHIP Him, WHOSE NAMES ARE NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE OF THE LAMB SLAIN FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD. I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exercised all the authority of the first beast in the presence before him, and caused the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. And deceived them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he was granted power to do in the sight of the beast;saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword and did live. And he had power to give breath unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. He caused ALL, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark in their right hand or in their foreheads.And that NO man might buy or sell, except he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Revelation 6:9-11,17 Ane when Jesus opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the WORD OF GOD AND FOR THE TESTIMONY WHICH THEY HELD: And they cried with a loud voice, saying HOW LONG, O LORD, HOLY AND TRUE, DO YOU NOT JUDGE AND AVENGE OUR BLOOD ON THEM THAT DWELL ON THE EARTH (Zech.1:12) And white robes were given unto every one of them, that they should rest yet a little while, til their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were,should be fulfilled.For the great day of the Lord's wrath is come; and who is able to stand? Revelation19:11-16 And I saw heaven open and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him WAS called FAITHFUL AND TRUE and in righteousness he does judge and MAKE WAR. His eyes WERE as a flame of fire and on his head WERE many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew but he himself. And he Was clothed with a robe dipped in blood: and his name is called; THE WORD OF GOD. And the armies WHICH WERE IN HEAVEN FOLLOWED HIM UPON WHITE HORSES, CLOTHED IN FINE LINEN, WHITE AND CLEAN. And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should STRIKE THE NATIONS: and He shall rule them with a rod of iron: and He treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And He has in his robe and thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS Revelation 20:1-4,1-15 I saw an angel come down having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. He laid hold of the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devel and Satan and boutn him a thousand years. And cast him into the bottomless pit and shut him up and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations NO MORE, TILL THE THOUSAND YEARS SHOULD BE FULFILLED: after that HE MUST BE RELEASED FOR A LITTLE WHILE. And I saw thrones and they sat upn them and judgement was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were BEHEADED FOR THE WITNESS OFJESUS, AND FOR THE WORLD OF GOD, and which had not worshiped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads or in their hands; and THEY LIVED AND REIGNED WITH CHRIST A THOUSAND YEARS. And when the thousand yeaqrs are completed Satan shall be released out of his prison. And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom IS as the sand of the sea.And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven and devoured them.And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet ARE, and shall be tormented day and night forever and ever. And I saw a great white throne and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, samll and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of THOSE THINGS WHICH WERE WRITTEN IN THE BOOKS, ACCORDING TO THEIR WORKS. And the sea gave up the dead, and death and hades delivered up the dead: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hades WERE CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE. THIS IS THE SECOND DEATH. And whosoever WAS NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE WAS CAST INTO THE LAKE OF FIRE. LORD HAVE MERCY, CHRIST HAVE MERCY, LORD HAVE MERCY HONOR AND GLORY AND MIGHT AND POWER BELONG TO THE LORD AMEN
