ABRAHAM – PART 5
JOURNEY TO CANAAN AND BETHEL
At age 75 Abram and Lot took all of their possessions and left Haran and went to Canaan which had been their father’s original goal forty years earlier upon leaving Ur of Chaldea.
God had told him to go to a land which God would show him. Upon arriving in Canaan, God told him upon appearing to him (Genesis 12:7), “Unto thy seed will I give this land.” He built an altar unto the Lord (Yahweh, Jehovah) there in that place.
He then moved to a mountain just east of Bethel, pitched his tent, and built another altar unto the Lord.
It is interesting that he settled near Bethel. The place name of Beth-el means “house of God.” The Hebrew meaning of “Beth” means “house” or “place.” El is a word meaning “god.” Bethel has long been considered as a gateway or portal to the heavens. Abram’s grandson, Jacob (Israel) years later camped at Bethel where he saw angels ascending and descending on heaven’s stairway. Jacob actually camped there twice. On another occasion he wrestled with the Angel of the Lord, a significant visitation from God.
Bethel would remain a holy site in Israel for well over a thousand years. Altars built there were sometimes used to sacrifice to God, but many times were also used to sacrifice to idols. Abram’s visit there is the first biblically recorded record of Bethel. Bethel was located about twelve miles north of Salem, better known later as Jeru-salem.
After a while near Bethel, Abram continued his travels, heading south. It is clear from Genesis 12:1-8 that Abram knew God on a personal level. God had appeared to him. Other times God had “said” (spoken) to him. “Appearing” is more personal than speaking and hearing. God can speak to us in many ways. We must have the spiritual “ears” to hear Him. He speaks to our spirit through the Holy Spirit and through His Word. In Revelation, Jesus in speaking to the churches often said, “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith…”
We need to always be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading. That is “hearing” Him. Unbelievers do not have that hearing ability. Lukewarm Christians may not have it either. Keep your heart tuned to Him, and He will give you the “ears to hear.”

GOOD GIFTS AND GREAT BENEFITS
“Every good and perfect gift” comes from God according to the book of James 1:17.
Many people think they are self-made when all along it is God that has blessed them. Even the breath in our lungs is a gift. Ask someone with emphysema and they would be sure to tell you not to take your breath for granted.
I love bright colors. Every day in the morning God paints the sky with the most beautiful sunrise, and at night with the sunset that can be breathtaking. That painting is a gift from God. I have always loved to look at clouds and many times they look like faces or animals, and I didn’t have to pay a cent to enjoy it.
Psalm 103:2 tells us, “Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.” There are so many benefits that we receive and take for granted. I am so thankful for the little things. I like nature and was swimming one day when a dragonfly flew right by me, and then zoomed in and out the whole time I was in the swimming pool. I thought about it later, and realized God sent a mosquito deterrent just for me and God made a simple provision.
How often we are blessed and don’t even see it. I met a lady once that had no saliva. She had to put drops into her mouth to eat because there was no saliva to help with chewing. It must have been so difficult to live without saliva, and I just take it for granted.
I am sure if we made a list of all of the benefits God sends our way that we would never stop writing. It is so much better to be thankful than to always be unappreciative. It is easy to become negative in a world full of sin, but there is much more to be positive about. If you count your blessings, you will always have more than enough.
So, quit complaining about what you don’t have, and start thanking God for what he does give you, and you will feel so much better. I am thankful for each of you that is reading this. May you be blessed to be a blessing!

Contact your Representative now and tell him to vote against House bill 6666 if passed will allow testing for Covid19 virus in homes. Tell our representative you want him to vote against it! There are many false positive tests coming up, and this is a violation of our freedom. It could mean losing your children if you are tested and test positive. Your children would be removed.
Update on the House bill 6666. It was introduced in May and has gone no further. Your actions have kept it from becoming a law!

PROPHETIC WORD
OCTOBER 17, 2020
Just as the morning sunrise comes every day, know that I am with you. Yes, there is a rising of my Spirit that will bring forth new things just as the dawning of the day saith the Lord. Where is that rising? You will find it as you come to me and sit at my feet and bask in my presence, for in my presence is found all that you need to rise up and be all that I have made you to be. In the hours ahead, my children you must spend more time with me than ever. In my presence you will find the equipping that you will need to go forth into battle. You must remember that all the pieces of your armor are me. You are wearing me from the top of your head to the souls of your feet. The more time you spend in my presence the stronger your armor will become. It will not allow the darts of the enemy to penetrate. Many have chosen not to spend time with me and have had dart after dart thrust into them, leaving them with scars and gaping holes that are still bleeding. This was never my plan. For didn’t I even walk with Adam of old in the cool of the day? Didn’t I speak to him face to face in the garden that I prepared for him? Yes, that is the time where he received instruction, and that is the time where we had communion. I love you my children and I want only the best for you. There are many voices that will speak and many will be very deceptive in the hours ahead. You will know who to listen to because of the time you spent with me. There are many battles ahead, but you will be protected in MY armor because it has grown stronger each time we commune. So, come to me now, and receive all that I have prepared for you saith the Lord. The battle is going to intensify very quickly and you will need the protection that only I can give. Come to me, come to me and commune with me saith the Lord.
