In the second year of Darius the king, in the sixth month, in the first day of the month, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet unto Zerubbabel the son of Josedech, the high priest, saying Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not come, the time that the Lord's house should be built. Then came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet, saying, Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your cieled houses, and this house lie waste? Now therefore saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways. Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes. Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Consider your ways.
 
We are living in the days of the end times like unto the days of Daniel and Revelation. The Lord wants us to have a friendly reminder that even though many have fallen away and gone into captivity there will still be a remnant to do the Lord's will. The adversary has attempted to annihilate the saints of God, but know that the Lord is still on the throne. They have trampled the Gospel and have attempted to have the Lord's house lie waste. However, the Lord stated that the house of the true worshipers will not lie waste and desolate. Much of the glory of the house of God has been lost because of judgment.
The priests were called back to the land of Judah and the Lord cleansed the people. They repented before the Lord and went back into the service of the Most High. They cleansed the land of falsehood and abominations. The false prophets were killed (put away) and the Word was restored. The Lord addressed that there was a separation. The Lord's house was neglected but people went off to their own houses and own land. Because the people did not prioritize the Lord's will, there was a lack due to covetous practices. They received the chastening of the Lord through the prophet Haggai and the high priest and the Lord said, I am with you. Therefore, the people returned to do the work in the house of the Lord.

​EPHESIAN 5:1-
BE YE THEREFORE FOLLOWERS OF GOD, AS DEAR CHILDREN; AND WALK IN LOVE, AS CHRIST ALSO HATH LOVED US, AND HATH GIVEN HIMSELF FOR US AS AN OFFERING AND A SACRIFICE OT GOD FOR A SWEET SAVOR.
BUT FORNICATION, AND ALL UNCLEANESS, OR COVETOUSNESS, LET IT NOT BE ONCE NAMED AMONG YOU, AS BECOMETH SAINTS;
NEITHER FILTHINESS, NOR FOOLISH TALKING, NOR JESTING, WHICH ARE NOT CONVENIENT: BUT RATHER GIVING OF THANKS.
FOR THIS YE KNOW, THAT NO WHOREMONGER, NOR UNCLEAN PERSON, NOR COVETOUS MAN, WHO IS AN IDOLATOR, HATH AN INHERITANCE IN THE KINGODM OF CHRIST AND OF GOD.
LET NO MAN DECEIVE YOU WITH VAIN WORDS: FOR BECAUSE OF THESE THINGS COMETH THE WRATH OF GOD UPON THE CHILDREN OF DISOBEDIENCE.
BE YE NOT THEREFORE PARTAKERS WITH THEM.
FOR YE WERE SOMETIME IN DARKNESS, BUT NOW ARE YE LIGHT IN THE LORD: WALK AS CHILDREN OF THE LIGHT.
(FOR THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS IN ALL GOODNESS AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH;)
FOR IT IS A SHAME EVEN TO SPEAK OF THOSE THINGS THAT THEY DO IN SECRET.
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it. Thank God for the privilege to serve him one more day and dispense the gospel to those who will have an ear to hear what the spirit has to say.
The Lord Jesus Christ commands us in this powerful word of encouragement to be followers of God. He is the good shepperd. He is known of His. He is the way. He pleads with us to walk in his love the way he loved us. He showed us how to love each other. Greater love hath no man than that he lay down his life for a friend. He gave himself and it was holy and acceptable unto God. His love is pure and self-less. Perfect love casts out all fear. Let it not be named among you at all anything that is unclean and contrary to the leading of the Holy Spirit. These things named are the character of man in the last days. You shall know them by their fruits. Be confident with full assurance that no man with such character shall enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. They do not have an inheritance with God. Get to know your savior. He died for you to have a right to the tree of life. He love you so much that he was wounded for our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities. By his stripes we were healed. Seek the Lord for his Holy Spirit to be kept in these last and evil days. God is the light and there is no darkness in him. Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart. Let his spirit guide you in the path of all truth. To be born again means putting on the newness of Christ and walking with him brings new revelation and fruits of righteousness. The things we do in his name are good ad always pleasing because our steps are ordered of the Lord.
Living in the end times you must not be in shock or awe with what you see. Be not afraid or intimidated. Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, the Lord says flee from them. Be wise as a serpent and yet humble as a dove. When the Lord Jesus Christ comes to abide in your life, he makes changes for the good. You don’t want to do the same things. You embrace holiness and the revelation of his Spirit with each encounter and each prayer. Having his residence means wanting to get an understanding of his will and yet willing to submit to his hand as the potter who is shaping a work that has been foreknown before the foundations were established. The created a spiritual work. He spoke it and it was good. To know him is to know his loving kindness and his tender mercies. Because of His revelation you want to be pleasing and not just desire his hand. Growing with means setting a standard. There are rights and responsibilities and expectations. Do not partake of them that continue to walk in unrighteousness and those who do not want the completion of the Spirit. It is shameful to know what some do in secret. Yet know that the world will continue to grow evil and because of the abounding of iniquity the love of many will wax cold. Therefore, let us arise out of sleep and the Lord shall be a light unto our path.

AND I SAW A NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH: FOR THE FIRST HEAVEN AND THE FIRST EARTH WERE PASSED AWAY; AND THERE WAS NO MORE SEA.
AND I JOHN SAW THE HOLY CITY, NEW JERUSALEM, COMING DOWN FROM GOD OUT OF HEAVEN, PREPARED AS A BRIDE ADORNED FOR HER HUSBAND.
AND I HEARD A GREAT VOICE OUT OF HEAVEN SAYING, BEHOLD, THE TABERNACLE OF GOD IS WITH MEN. AND HE WILL DWELL WITH THEM, AND THEY SHALL BE HIS PEOPLE, AND GOD HIMSELF SHALL BE WITH THEM, AND BE THEIR GOD.
AND GOD SHALL WIPE AWAY ALL TEARS FROM THEIR EYES; AND THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH, NEITHER SORROW, NOR CRYING, NEITHER SHALL THERE BE ANY MORE PAIN: FOR THE FROMER THINS ARE PASSED AWAY.
AND HE THAT SAT UPON THE THRONE SAID, BEHOLD, I MAKE ALL THINGS NEW. AND HE SAID UNTO ME, WRITE: FOR THESE WORDS ARE TRUE AND FAITHFUL.
AND HE SAID UNTO ME, IT IS DONE. IAM APLPHA AND OMEGA, THE BEGINNING AND THE END. I WILL GIVE UNTO HIM THAT IS ATHIRST OF THE FOUNTAIN OF THE WATER OF LIFE FREELY.
HE THAT OVERCOMETH SHALL INHERIT ALL THINGS, AND I WIL BE HIS GOD, AND HE SHALL BE MY SON.
The Lord Jesus revealed to Apostle John a new Heaven and a new Earth after having revealed to him the book of judgment and how those who were not written in the book of life would be cast into the lake of fire. He said that there was no more sea. The sea is where all things were cast when the Lord cleansed (baptized) the earth in the days of Noah. The Lord cast all of our sin into the sea of forgetfulness stating thy sins and iniquity I will remember no more.
Isaiah 35:3
Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees.
Say to them that are of a fearful heart, be strong, fear not: Behold, your god will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you.
And a highway shall be there and a way, and it shall be called the way of holiness: the unclean shall not pass over it: but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein.
No lion shall be there, not any reavenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there.
And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads; they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
The Jesus shows John New Jerusalem; The city they once attempted to trample. It was filled with abominations and was made desolate. The Lord says it has become new. The Lord re-establishes himself in the midst of his people. He told his prophets to strengthen the weak and the feeble. The Lord is still a healer and a deliverer. His hand is still stretched out with forgiveness and tender mercies. He is the redeemer and our savior. He has proclaimed that the eyes of the blind will be opened and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. The lame shall leap with joy and the dumb shall sing. The Lor dhas established the way of holiness. He has established just judgment. He has commanded us to behold look, and see that the tabernacle is with men.
John 14:20
And that day ye shall know that I am in my father and ye in me, and I in you.
He that hath my commandment, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my father and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
Jesus answered and said unto him, if a man love me, he will keep my words: and my father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
The overcomers shall abide in him and shall inherit all things. He said the former things are passed away and he has made all things new. He has forgiven. He has made whole. He has cleansed with refining fire. It is done on the cross. He has poured his spirit to those who have asked of him. He has made the path to holiness known. Therefore. Know that he who sits on the throne is reining as the first and the last and he is faithful and true.

BELOVED, BELIEVE NOT EVERY SPIRIT, BUT TRY THE SPIRITS BY THE SPIRIT WHETHER THEY ARE OF GOD: BECAUSE MANY FALSE PROPHETS ARE GONE INTO THE WORLD.
HEREBY WE KNOW THE SPIRIT OF GOD: EVERY SPIRIT THAT CONFESSETH THAT JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH IS OF GOD.
AND EVERY SPIRIT THAT CONFESSETH NOT THAT JESUS CHRIST IS COME IN THE FLESH IS NOT OF GOD: AND THIS IS THAT SPIRIT OF ANTI CHRIST, WHERE OF YE HAVE HEARD THAT IT SHOULD COME; AND EVEN NOW ALREADY IT IS IN THE WORLD.
YE ARE OF GOD, LITTLE CHILDREN, AND HAVE OVERCOME THEM: BECAUSE GREATER IS HE THAT IS IN YOU THAN HE THAT IS IN THE WORLD.
THEY ARE OF THE WORLD: THEREFORE, SPEAK THEY OF THE WORLD AND THE WORLD HEARS THEM.
WE ARE OF GOD: HE THAT KNOWETH GOD HEARETH US; HE THAT IS NOT OF GOD HEARETH NOT US. HEREBY WE KNOW THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND THE SPIRIT OF ERROR.
It is needful to give a friendly reminder that we are in fact living in the last days and we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against powers of darkness of this world. However, we have already overcome them even by faith. There are many that are contrary that have come to spy out our liberties in Christ and walk in unbelief. Stay the course. The fruits cannot lie. Do not be weary with the cares of the world and people who only want to serve half-way and learn bits and pieces of me. They do not want to walk in the fullness of my love, the fullness of my joy. Those that must be told the same things week after week…having a form of godliness, ever learning and never coming to the knowledge of me; they do not have a relationship with me. Those who know me, know to do my will and to do my purpose. The know that I will have mercy and not sacrifice. They know to walk by my spirit. My sheep hear my voice. They are known of me. I love them. The spirits are subject to the Holy Spirit. Do not take down and weary yourself with folks that have show that they have no true desire to do my will. Be not weary in well doing. A good work is a work of faith by my spirit. In due season you will reap if you faint not. Do not faint at these tests that have been appointed to build you on your most holy faith. Miracles, signs, and wonders will follow the believer. Those are appointed to eternal life know me. Those who don’t cannot receive me. No matter how hared you try. No matter how my people say things the world cannot receive the things of the spirit.
II Corinthians 4:16-18
FOR WHICH CAUSE WE FAINT NOT; BUT THOUGH OUR OUTWARD MAN PERISH; YET THE INWARD MAN IS RENEWED DAY BY DAY.
FOR OUR LIGHT AFFLICTION, WHICH IS BUT FOR A MOMENT, WORKETH FOR US A FAR MORE EXCEEDING AND ETERNAL WEIGHT OF GLORY.
WHILE WE LOOK NOT AT THE THINGS WHICH ARE SEEN, BUT AT THE THINGS WHICH ARE NOT SEEN: FOR THE THINGS WHICH ARE SEEN ARE TEMPORAL; BUT THE THINGS WHICH ARE NOT SEEN ARE ETERNAL.
Resist the devil and he will flee. Speak the word and it will work. Pray without ceasing. Encourage one another in the faith. Love covers a multitude of sins.]]>Thu, 23 Apr 2026 22:25:55 GMThttp://www.godchasersministries.org/letters/passionate-pursuitpickupyourweaponsandfight2 Cor 11:23
Word of Encouragement concerning persecution
Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I am more; in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequent, in deaths oft.
Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one.
Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep,
In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;
In weariness and painfulness, in watching often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in and nakedness.
The Lord stated that we should be all things to all men that we may by all means save some. Remember, the persecution is so that our bonds in Christ are manifest in all the place and that brethren will become more confident seeing such bonds and will go forth to speak the word more boldly without fear. We, as believers are partakers of the persecution and the sufferings that come with carrying the cross. Paul speaks to the Corinthians about the true sufferings that come with being a disciple of the most high and a faithful servant. He stated that he labored abundant. At one point he even mentioned that there were some “addicted” to the ministry.
The bible tells us to know them that labor among us ad sometimes we need to observe other ministers and even study to show ourselves approved that we maintain ourselves as faithful stewards of the word.
Paul asks the question, are they ministers? In these last days the Lord said to try the spirits by the spirit. We shall know them by their fruits. Many false brethren have crept in with the hope to frustrate our purpose and add affliction to my bonds in Christ. Paul shows us what to look for in a true servant. They are laboring to preach and dispense the gospel. You can see they are taking stripes for speaking the truth. These things aren’t just manifesting naturally, but spiritually.
2 Cor 4:18
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
You can see them carrying their cross for the name of Jesus. The works of faith are there. They are partakers of the sufferings of Christ. Within the true fellowship of the saints they are not acting like everything is fine and as if they are standing on their own by their own power and on their own authority.
Philippians 1:15-18
Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:
The one preaches Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:
But the other of love, knowing that I am for the defense of the gospel.
What then? Notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretense, or in truth, Christ is preached, and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. #chasingafterHim #praiseHim #trust #watchandpray

The burden which Habakkuk the prophet did see. O Lord, How long shall I cry, and thou wilt not hear! Even cry out unto thee of violence, and thou wilt not save! Why dost thou shew iniquity, and cause me to behold grievance? for spoiling and violence are before me: and there are that raise up strife and contention. Therefore the law is slacked, and judgment doth never go forth: for the wicked doth compass about the righteous; therefore wrong judgment proceedeth. Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.
 
The prophet Habakkuk cries out to the Lord while also being used to confirm the words of Jeremiah the prophet as well. The prophet is among a people who the Lord will soon deliver to judgment. They will go into captivity. However, there is still a remnant of those who have not given to abomination and idolatry. There is corruption everywhere amongst the children of God. There are workers of iniquity that seem to prosper in their way and the prophet crying out on behalf of the righteous. It seems that the longsuffering of the Lord is taken for slackness and as if the Lord is not attentive to what's going on but he does see. He hears. He knows all things concerning His chosen. Sometimes the Lord's mercy can be taken for slack because He is abundant in mercy and tender loving kindness. There are times we are “crushed” in spirit, but the Lord says that a broken and contrite spirit He will in no ways cast away.
 
The prophet Habakkuk gets on his knees and begins to cry to the Lord in prayer concerning the injustice that he sees among the children of God. His heart's cry was one that provokes the Lord to speak through him prophetically. He said “Behold” you among the heathen. The Lord is saying “Look” you who are the midst of the unbeliever. Pay attention I will do a work that is going to be marvelous. These people wouldn't believe it even if it were told them. I have something prepared for the wicked, sayeth the Lord. The Lord shares with the prophet that He is raising up an enemy and this enemy will not take pity. They are terrible and dreadful. These wonders that will be performed cannot be fathomed. Even if the Lord could explain they are so full of unbelief they couldn't comprehend such revelation without experiencing for themselves. The Lord will use this enemy to devastate them in such a way the Lord doesn't put it into words.
 
12
Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? We shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction.
 
The Lord confirms that some folks are set in place for the sake of judgment. There are tares that grow in the midst of the wheat. However, there will be an appointed time when the reapers will do the separation and the just shall be severed from the wicked.
 
Jude 4
 
For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus.
 
We cannot fret ourselves because of evildoers or be envious of those who seem to prosper in their way. They shall be cut down as the grass and become no more. Some think that the Lord worked signs, miracles, and wonders only in the form of healings or to cure someone of disease. However, He works signs for the edification of the spiritual part of us. Sometimes that involves building and establishing a reverent fear of the living God. When the Lord allowed pharaoh to come against the children in Egypt He was able to show His strength and might as a deliverer. When the Amelekites came against the children of Israel the Lord commanded Moses to hold up his hands until they were defeated. When he put his hands down they would gain ground. This gesture of obedience was symbol of praise. When we praise the Lord through circumstance and in the midst of our afflictions we overcome. When we let our hands down our enemies can gain ground. The Lord said that He will do a work among the heathen and they will wonder marvellously. His wonders will be unbelievable. Nonetheless, He will make it clear that He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords. There is no other besides Him. He is the righteous judge, though, with our natural eye it seems that truth and justice tarry long.
 
For, lo, I raise up the Chaldeans, that bitter and hasty nation, which shall march through the breadth of the land, to posses the dwellingplaces that are not theirs. They are terrible and dreadful: their judgment and their dignity shall proceed of themselves. Their horses also are swifter than the leopards, and are more fierce than the evening wolves: and their horsemen shall spread themselves, and their horsemen shall come from far; they shall fly as the eagle that hasteth to eat. They shall come all for violence: their faces shall sup up as the east wind, and they shall gather the captivity as the sand. And they scoff at the kings, and the princes shall be a scorn unto them: they shall deride every strong hold; for they shall heap dust, and take it.
 
After having heard the prayers of Habakkuk, the Lord was merciful to give him a prophetic Word in the midst of his cries. The Lord shared that He already had a plan in place for the children of disobedience. He has given a Word in addition to the words of prophecy given by Jeremiah. He is raising up an enemy to render judgment upon the nations. The enemies will come in and they will take residence in places that were not designated to them. The Lord says that this enemy is terrible and dreadful. Just as he shared about the anti-christ to the prophet Daniel. He said the beasts were terrible and would destroy wonderfully. Their judgment and dignity will come from themselves, meaning these enemies are lawless. They don't carry integrity or pity. They live by their own set of rules and boundaries. Their animals are demonic, fierce, and swifter than what we have seen. They will come specifically for violence, not even peaceably and will take captive more than can be numbered. They will not have a reverence for kings, princes, or those in political authority.
 
Then shall his mind change, and he shall pass over, and offend, imputing this his power unto his god. Art thou not from everlasting, O Lord my God, mine Holy One? we shall not die. O Lord, thou hast ordained them for judgment; and, O mighty God, thou hast established them for correction. Thou art of purer eyes than to behold evil, and canst not look on iniquity: wherefore lookest thou upon them that deal treacherously, and holdest thy tongue when the wicked devoureth the man that is more righteous than he?
 
The prophet is speaking of judgment hour for the children of God in the last days. The Lord Jesus always has an appointed time of harvest. He said he would send His reapers, who will sever the wicked from the just. During these times, the people are tried to see if they will come forth purified by fire or who will abandon their holy covenant. Many will choose to give heed to higher powers  and strange gods that are not the living God. These gods were already in place, the idolatries, and abominations. This is what provoked the judgment in the first place. There are rulers of the darkness of this world which cause the children to provoke the jealousy of the Most High. Although these things seem to have manifested naturally, this is a picture of spiritual warfare. This warfare is intense and at at time where they should call on the name of the living God, they change their mind. They relinquish their God-given authority to falsehood.
 
The Lord has Habakkuk ask the question, “Are you not from everlasting?” Meaning, Is there any greater than the Most High? Is His arm too short that he cannot save? Is he not the Ancient of Days and the originator of all power? Surely, if we call on the name of Jesus we shall not die. Yet, those who forsake the living God have been ordained for such condemnation. However, the Lord is not slack with His judgment, but that we shall come to the knowledge of Him and repent.
 
The Lord reveals that he has pure eyes and looks away from our iniquity and transgressions because of His loving kindness and tender mercies. We have yet to receive the recompense and reward for our sins because he has been faithful to forgive. However, Habakkuk urges the Lord to look. Behold what they do. If you do not intervene they shall even devour the righteous. Arise, to deliver for you are our righteousness.
 
And makest men as the fishes of the sea, as the creeping things, that have no ruler over them? They take up all of them with the angle, they catch them in their net, and gather them in their drag: therefore rejoice and are glad. Therefore they sacrifice unto their net, and burn incense unto their drag; because by them their portion is fat, and their meat plenteous. Shall they therefore empty their net, and not spare continually to slay the nations?
 
Habakkuk asks, Aren't we as the fish of the sea? Aren't we the seed of Abraham which cannot be numbered? We have not created ourselves. We are the Lord's heritage, called by His name for His purpose and good pleasure. We have a ruler. Jesus is the King of Kings. His kingdom is everlasting. They are taken with the angle is to say that the people are being baited. They are lured with deception. The adversary rejoices when we are caught in the snares and traps. They worship the work of their hands.
 
They credit the net for their abundance. Therefore, they do not acknowledge the living God as their provider, who has enlarged their territory. Their job is their worship. They put all of their time and effort into building for themselves, and delivering to the slaughter for covetousness. Therefore, are they that have forsaken the covenant caught in their own snare. Nonetheless, Habakkuk says to the Lord to not let them slay all the nations. There has to be a place to draw the line and restore to yourself O' Lord a remnant. For the elect's sake the Lord shall cut things short in righteousness. He will be to them a repairer of the breach and the God who redeems.
 
Prayer changes things. The effectual fervent prayers of the righteous availeth much. Jesus commanded us in the last days to watch as well as pray. He is our advocate with the Father. He will hear us.  
 
I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.
 
Jesus comes that we may have life and have it more abundantly. He is the good shepherd. He is know of His. His sheep hear His voice. Having prayed and lamented unto the Lord, the Lord gives the prophetic concerning His people and those who do not return to him. Nonetheless, the prophet says I will watch to see what the Spirit of God will do; because the people in the midst are stiffnecked and a perverted generation. Jeremiah has given the Word. Ezekiel has given the Word. Several prophets have been sent to warn the people of the coming judgment because of the depths of the Lord's love for His children. Spiritually things seem out of control. Yet, all things have been created for him and by him.
 
Habakkuk will wait to see what the Lord will say. He's saying watch as a true priest and gatekeeper. While he elevates he prepares himself to be reproved by the Lord. He sees so much that he wants to be sure he is not responsible for the injustices and slack of the Lord's movement in the circumstances.  In these last days it is easy to get confused to think you've done something wrong or that chaos around you is your fault. People are stiffnecked because of you. People are going astray because of you. People aren't showing love because of you. You didn't love enough. You didn't pray enough. You didn't preach enough. A falling away must come before the end. The Word must be fulfilled. However, we must still look to the hills from which cometh our help. Look to Jesus for leadership and guidance.
 
The Lord answered Habakkuk's original question, “Why doest thou show me iniquity and grievance?” He instructed him to write the vision. Write what you see. With the understanding I've given you, make it plain. He said those who read it may run, meaning, they will fear the wrath to come. They will fear the judgment. They will fear the indignation. What we see is for an appointed time. The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ. The consequence of sin will surely come to those who refused to surrender to the living God. The Lord is merciful. He is longsuffering. He looks past our faults to meet our needs for His love. Love covers a multitude of sin. Wait on the Lord. Be of good courage. His word will not return void.
 
Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. Yea also because he trangresseth by wine, he is a proud man, neither keepeth at home, who enlargeth his desire as hell, and is as death, and cannot be satisfied, but gathereth unto him all nations, and heapeth unto him all people: Shall not all these take up a parable against him, and a taunting proverb against him, and say, Woe to him that increaseth that which is not his! how long? And to him that ladeth himself with thick clay!
 
The Lord says to observe the prideful man for his soul is not upright before him. Those who are justified are those who walk by faith. They shall obtain mercy and favor. They drink wine and thereby transgress. Therefore, their home is not in order in the sight of God. They have many desires but they do not originate from on High. They are not righteous to do the will and purpose of Christ. These folks cannot be satisfied with righteousness, and yet they attempt to gather other nations and compel them to follow in their wicked way. There's a cliche that states misery loves company. Hell hath enlarged herself. Even today, I am writing in the second decade of the twenty first century. There are several social media platforms that focus on multitude of followers and “friends.”
 
God is a jealous God. We are His creation. We belong to him. There is nothing that we have that we haven't been given. The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof. The Lord doesn't want us to be heavy laden and burdened down. This includes debt. He desires that we prosper and be in good health. He says there is woe to them that take on debt in attempt to increase what doesn't belong to them. This is gambling and not showing good stewardship over the Lord's provisions. He says if we be faithful over a few things he will make us a ruler over many. (Matthew 25:21)
 
Shall they not rise up suddenly that shall bite thee, and wake that shall vex thee, and thou shalt be for booties unto them? Because thou hast spoiled many nations, all the remnant of the people shall spoil thee; because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein. Woe to him that coveteth an evil covetousness to his house, that he may set his nest on high, that he may be delivered from the power of evil! Thou hast consulted shame to thy house by cutting off many people, and hast sinned against thy soul. For the stone shall cry out of the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it. Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, and stablisheth a city by iniquity!
 
The Lord's kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. In the last days, the Lord Jesus says, “Seek him and live.” Seek for His spirit to reign because he will lead His children by the hand. He is the truth and the way. His saints will inherit the kingdom. The Lord is called a healer and a deliverer. In order for restoration of a nation to take place, he addresses sin and gets to the root of what caused the error and the children to backslide. He shared with Habakkuk that he is coming with His wrath upon the disobedient. They will get their due reward. The hearts of the people are far from the Lord. They desire inappropriate desires. Building the kingdom of God and His righteousness is not a priority of this people. They build up their own homes as if it is their own kingdom. They prioritize themselves and go forth to do their own will and obtain that which has not been set aside for them. They desire homes, businesses, and families that have not been ordained by the Most High.
 
These things are not natural. These things you must spiritually discern. There is spiritual warfare that is disbursed upon the chosen ones. There is a violence in the land...a spiritual violence because people are given to covetous practices. Men desire to be with another man's wife. Women desire of another woman's husband. Money, power, and respect is the driving force of the sin and the corruption in the land. Therefore, is the Word fulfilled that the wages of sin is death. They covet with an evil covetousness because they are willing to kill, steal, destroy, and conspire against the righteous in order to obtain what is not theirs. There is an appointed time to build, but woe to them that are building their own kingdoms. The Lord says the stones and beams will cry out. These corrupt foundations will not stand. The wickedness of these people cannot be put into words. Yet, the Lord did warn it shall be as the days of Noah and like unto the days of Sodom and Gomorrah.
 
Behold, is it not of the Lord of hosts that the people shall labour in the very fire, and the people shall weary themselves for very vanity? For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness! Thou art filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the Lord's right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory. For the violence of Lebanon shall cover thee, and the spoil of beasts, which made them afraid, because of men's blood, and for the violence of the land, of the city, and of all that dwell therein.

BELOVED, LET US LOVE ONE ANOTHER: FOR LOVE IS OF GOD; AND EVERY ONE THAT LOVETH IS BORN OF GOD, AND KNOWETH GOD.
HE THAT LOVETH NOT KNOWETH NOT GOD; FOR GOD IS LOVE.
IN THIS WAS MANIFESTED THE LOVE OF GOD TOWARD US, BECAUSE THAT GOD SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON INTO THE WORLD, THAT WE MIGHT LIVE THROUGH HIM.
HEREIN IS LOVE, NOT THAT WE LOVED GOD, BUT THAT HE LOVED US, AND SENT HIS SON TO BE THE PROPITIATION FOR OUR SINS.
BELOVED, IF GOD SO LOVED US, WE OUGHT ALSO TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER.
NO MAN HATH SEEN GOD AT ANY TIME. IF WE LOVE ONE ANOTHER, GOD DWELLETH IN US, AND HIS LOVE IS PERFECTED IN US
HEREBY WE KNOW THAT WE THAT DWELL IN HIM, AND HE IN US, BECAUSE HE HATH GIVEN US OF HIS SPIRIT.
AND WE HAVE SEEN AND DO TESTIFY THAT THE FATHER SENT THE SON TO BE THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD.
HEREIN IS OUR LOVE MADE PERFECT THAT WE MAY HAVE BOLDNESS IN THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THE WORLD.
Our Father in Heaven sees all and knows all. No matter the circumstance, the adversary is going to war with the saints of God in these last and evil days no matter how much seeking of the Spirit we do…there is still spiritual warfare. The word of God states in the book of Daniel that the adversary will do exploits to make it seem like the true saints of God aren’t true at all. We still, like Job, must maintain our integrity, and not give the heathen reason to doubt the power of God. Jesus is real. He is not mocked. Those who sow to the wind shall reap the whirlwind, but those who seek the Kingdom and all of its righteousness and receive the reward of Heaven. Perfect love casts out all fear and covers a multitude of sins. Fear not what man can do, but fear the God who can place both body and soul into the pit of hell. Now is not the time to throw in the towel. To whom much is given, much is required. It’s time to cut ties with those who want to source the spirit of God without being servants of righteousness. On the cross the Lord Jesus cried forgive them for they know not what they do. Now they have been taught the ways of righteousness and holiness. Therefore, woe unto them who call good evil and evil good…who take bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. How long has the spirit of God covered and we continue to deposit and sow corruption instead of forsaking ourselves and putting the flesh on the cross. The Lord Jesus surely will say depart from me you workers of iniquity I knew not of you. Love is an action word and it is seen with signs, miracles, and wonders following. Love wants healing, deliverance. Love recognizes the needs of others. Love hopes for all things. Love is not selfish. Love is not a thief. Love wants to seek the face of God and not just behold his hand. Love can not be feigned! #DONOTBEDECEIVED!

DO YOU HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT?]]>Mon, 20 Apr 2026 05:30:00 GMThttp://www.godchasersministries.org/letters/passionate-pursuitwe-must-overcome​Hebrews 12:3-4
For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and
faint in your minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
To the remainder of saints who have chosen Christ as their Savior and continue to stand boldly in their
most holy faith. I thank God, my God for the privilege to serve with you in battle.
There have been some great battles to go through and overcome as we have been fellow partakers
enduring this season of judgment among the house hold of faith. The accounts of our predecessors, our
forefathers, the holy prophets and apostles have paved the narrow path for us concerning spiritual
persecution. Though there is no way to effectively put in words the things that the men and women and
the saints of God are going through. It is safe to say that the persecution that they warned of is real and
very prominent among the true and faithful servants of the Most High who refuse to take down for sin
and the abominable things. Though we are in a country that once had been established on the
foundation of Jesus Christ and the glory of His righteousness, the enemy has utilized fear, intimidation,
and seducing spirits to lead many of the chosen of God to slaughter and to surrender their authority.
The persecution has not come in ways in which many recognize with the natural eye, yet we compare
the spiritual with the spiritual. The persecution has come through the workplaces and in the pubic
schools. Health care workers pushed into corners facing intimidation to do ungodly things to people
including children and babies. Folks have been told to not come to work until they eliminate the Holy
Spirit from their lives. Spiritually is many are being tested and tried by fire. In whatever way the
adversary can think to challenge the true saints of God. Meanwhile, leadership and the godly heads are
relinquishing their authority to put wickedness and abominable things in positions where Jesus Christ is
suppose to be reigning. They do it freely without even seeking for the counsel of the Most High.
However, to the children of the Most High who haven’t given themselves to the enemy, the Lord says
seek after His spirit to lead and guide you. Seek Him with praise, with worship, with joy and hymns
that will keep you through these times. Hold dear the truth and confidence of His Holy Word. Watch
and pray to stay within His hedge of protection. For even today many of us have not resisted sin unto
the shedding of blood because of His Spirit and His tender mercies and loving kindness. These trials
are small considering the sufferings of our predecessors. They were beaten, they were stoned, some
were boiled, and encountered all manner of evil for His name’s sake. Stay the course, finish the race for
those who endure to the end shall be saved.
Jude 20-25
But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, Keep
yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
And for some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the
fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of
his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and
power, both now and ever. Amen. #HOLDFASTTOTHETRUTH]]>Mon, 20 Apr 2026 01:42:40 GMThttp://www.godchasersministries.org/letters/passionate-pursuithes-able4835335From the days of old when the Lord was leading the children through the wilderness to the place of their inheritance and also into the place of their inheritance, and also into the days of Joshua, the Lord gave the children the laws and a covenant. He gave them also their portion by tribe. The Levites were the priesthood at the time for the children. The Lord sanctified them and set them apart for his service. So, we say that to say the prophets were raised up with the priests in their portion of the land.
The Lord shares with us some of Jeremiah's history. His father's name is Hilkiah who was of the priesthood. He lived in Anatoth located within the land of Benjamin. Because of this information we know that Jeremiah has some knowledge of God because he grew up amongst a houshold of priests of the Lord.
The Lord moves to speak to Jeremiah in the days of Josiah while he had already been in the midst of reigning as King of Judah for thirteen years. Josiah was a young King who took the throne at the tender age of eight years of age. This is not coincidence that the Lord raises up a younf prophet Jeremiah to prophesy to a young King of the House of Israel.
Jeremiah 1:5-10
BEFORE I FORMED THEE IN THE BELLY, I KNEW THEE; AND BEFORE THOU CAMEST FORTH OUT OF THE WOMB I SANCTIFIED THEE, AND I ORDAINED THEE A PROPHET UNTO THE NATIONS.
THEN SAID I, AH, LORD GOD! BEHOLD, I CANNOT SPEAK: FOR I AM A CHILD.
BUT THE LORD SAID UNTO ME, SAY NOT, I AM A CHILD: FOR THOU SHALT GO TO AL THAT I SHALL SEND THEE, AND WHATSOEVER I COMMAND THEE THOU SHALT SPEAK.
BE NOT AFRAID OF THEIR FACES: FOR I AM WITH THEE TO DELIVER THEE SAITH THE LORD.
THEN THE LORD PUT FORTH HIS HAND, AND TOUCHED MY MOUTH. AND THE LORD SAID UNTO ME, BEHOLD, I HAVE PUT MY WORDS IN THY MOUTH.
SEE, I have THIS DAY SET THEE OVER THE NATIONS AND OVER THE KINGDOMS, TO ROOT OUT, AND TO PULL DOWN, AND TO DESTROY, AND TO THROW DOWN, TO BUILD, AND TO PLANT.

The Lord sets the atmosphere by sharing the spiritual condition of the people with the King and Jeremiah. We learn more details of the king in the book of chronicles and in later chapters. Nonetheless, the Lord doesn't use a messenger in the form of a priest or family member. The Lord God speaks and introduces himself to Jeremiah directly.
He tells him the reason why he came forth and what his purpose for the Lord was for even before he was born. The Lord stated that before he was formed, he knew him; meaning he came forth from the spirit of God. The priests are sanctified as well, but the lord specified that he would be called a prophet and he would be sent forth to the nations to speak as the mouth of God. Each person represents a nation.
When Jeremiah received his call and purpose he is overwhelmed. There is nothing like knowing what your mission and purpose is in this life. Jeremiah gives the Lord some reasoning, one we are so familiar with from the days of Moses who also claimed that he lacked the ability regarding his speech. Jeremiah's reasoning with the Lord was his youth. He's just a child, he claims. Isn't that interesting of the humility? He questions his own youthfulness while on the other side of things, the King of Josiah has been reigning since the age of eight, one of the youngest kings we've most likely read about besides King Jesus.
The Lord himself addresses this thing. He addressed the concerns that are considered his weakness. The Lord god makes it clear ti the young prophet to not be concerned as if this is a fleshly call. He is in unity by his spirit to so his will and his purpose. The Lord is with him to do the work. So, we see that the Lord gives an introduction, call, purpose, mission, and with this mission, a vision. Because Jeremiah is the mouth of God, he receives a touch by the Lord as a formal spiritual cleansing and anointing to do the Lord's will effectively and holy.
When the Lord gives his purpose, he gives the vision to see it through to the end. Jesus Christ says that he is the author and the finisher of our faith. The finishing spirit comes along witht eh prophetic to know what the future will be for the Lord's chosen.
In verse 10, the first thing the Lord mentions is vision. He says, “see, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.”
PHILIPPIANS 2:5-7
LET THIS MIND BE IN YOU, WHICH WS ALSO IN CHRIST JESUS:
WHO, BEING IN THE FORM OF GOD, THOUGHT IT NOT ROBBERY TO BE EQUAL WITH GOD:
BUT MADE HIMSELF OF NO REPUTATION, AND TOOK UPON HIM THE FORM OF A SERVANT, AND WAS MADE IN THE LIKENESS OF MEN:
HERE IS THE SONSHIP AUTHORITY. HE SET HIM OVER THE NATIONS AND KINGDOMS BEING IN UNITY BY THEE SPIRIT OF TRUTH AND EQUAL WITH THE LIVING GOD.
In verse 8, the Lord stated to Jeremiah to be not afraid. He will be with him to deliver him. So with this prophetic office the Lord also distributes the spirit of deliverance with him as well. The spirit of deliverance will do the work spoken of in verse 10 to accomplish his purpose to root out, pull down, to destroy, and to throw down, to build and to plant. Does this sound familiar?
II Corinthians 10:4
FOR THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL, BUT MIGHTY THROUGH GOD TO THE PULLING DOWN OF STRONGHOLDS;
CASTING DOWN IMAGINATIONS, AND EVERY HIGH THING THAT EXALTHETH ITSELF AGAINST THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, AND BRINGING INTO CAPTIVITYEVERY THOGUHT TO THE OBEDIENCE OF CHRIST;
Sometimes we can think to root out, pull down, or destroy can be a bad thing. But, this is the Lord sharing the process of deliverance with his prophet he is sending to the nations. Before a foundation can be laid there is a tearing down of the “old” and that which is contrary. When Jesus delivers by His spirit, he roots our every demonic force. He pulls things from the root. The Lord God doesn't do anything half-way. He does a complete work. He desires to destroy anything, any enmity that will interfere with his relationship with his children. He must also pull down vain imaginations and spiritual wickedness in high places and anything else that will interfere with the flow of His Holy Spirit.
Then He is able to build and plant seeds of righteousness. The ground is fertile.
What do you plant? Fruits of the spirit...love, joy, peace, gentleness, kindness, mercy, longsuffering, and faith to name a few.
He asked Jeremiah what he saw. When he answered the Lord, He said, thou hast seen well. The Lord then said, “I will hasten my word to perform it.” Meaning Jeremiah's word wil not fall to the ground. What he sees from the Lord he must speak.
Jeremiah sees another vision spiritual in nature, a seething pot. It is pointing north to say that there is a fury from the Lord breaking forth upon the children of God from the north.
The Lord states that he is the one who is calling the kingdoms of the north into unity and they shall establish themselves at the entering of the gates of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is a portion of promised land set for the children of Israel. He stated the enemies would be at the gate, and that we are the gatekeepers. Meaning, we are going to have to fight for our promise. The Lord is putting the ball back in your court saying surrender and I will be with you. They have made their own thrones and their own pedestals. He said, even against the cities of Judah. Judah is the scepter and the light, the praise. He is addressing the sin before they enter into their promise.
