Brothers and Sisters,

Grace and peace to you all throughout this new year of 2026 as we continue to watch, pray and anticipate the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ! Why, every day we can look out the window and see another verse of the book of Revelation unfolding. We are truly living in exciting times!

I would like to stir up your hearts today and remind you of the ONE thing, according to scripture, that we are fully assured Jesus will be looking for upon His return in this natural world. In the book of Luke we read, '... when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?" Luke 18:8 (NKJV)

In Romans we read " '... God has dealt to each one a measure of faith." Romans 12:3 (NKJV) Think about this, who in this world does not believe that the sun will come up in the morning? Do not even worldly people, if they are wise, prepare for the four seasons to come? Do we not all believe that tomorrow we will have air to breathe? People, that is faith, because the truth is, until God created the sun, the seasons, and mankind, what we believe and expect daily, has not always existed according to the book of Genesis in the Bible.

This word faith in the Romans 12:3 in the Greek (4102/pistis) is defined a s always a gift from God, and never something that can be produced by people. Who made the sun, the seasons, the air we breathe? Of course, God made everything we can see and believe. Therefore, what He has produced, even in the natural - is His gift to mankind, which results in their faith

God is the center of faith, and the more a person yields themselves to Him, He continues to birth them from faith to faith. First from faith in things pertaining to the natural world He created. Then, the blessed hope is that, as one renews their mind according to the word of God, their faith will be the true faith God prefers, i.e., believing in what is unseen. "...faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1 (NKJV)

I pray that the Word of God may continue to increase in your lives daily, as you receive it, believe it, and walk in it! I trust in God that His Word will have no boundaries and will continually save your souls both here and now, and the souls of your entire household! Glory!

"Since we consider and look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen; for the things that are visible are temporal (brief and fleeting), but the things that are invisible are deathless and everlasting." 2 Corinthians 4:18 (AMPC)

In His Service,

"But I am afraid that, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, your minds will be led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ. For if one comes and preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted, you bear this beautifully." 2 Corinthians 11:3-4 (NASB1995) I have to be honest, I was raised in church, and I never remember hearing anything like this being taught on.

As we continue in life in a daily anticipation of the return of Jesus, we see that the deception is on the rise and is moving at a reckless pace. We must be reminded, however, that this is nothing new. Even in the days of Paul we see that he gave warning of something that represented truth but was in fact deceit.

Therefore, when I really read it for the first time myself, I was speechless! What? Another Jesus? A different spirit being taught, and even a different gospel? Let's continue in Paul's speech to the Corinthians here dropping down to verse 13, "For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore, it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds." 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 (NASB1995)

After much prayer, it all began to make perfect sense to me. There are some that believe in a Jesus that cannot heal. Others believe a different gospel that all it takes is a simple confession asking, "this Jesus" to come into their lives, yet there is no change, or accountability to make "this Jesus," Lord of their life. Still others receive of a different spirit in which they claim is the "Holy Spirit" and they are ready to engage in a fistfight with a true believer when a disagreement is encountered, therefore by their fruits you will know them!

God is allowing everything to be exposed for what it is, but we must remember our responsibility in this hour is to not be deceived, but to try the spirits. "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world." 1 John 4:1-3 (NASB1995) We are not looking for the antichrist to return.... He is already here!
