Live one’s life in accordance with Psalm 91 (among others), and that is THE Stronghold we were meant to live by
Response by MJ:
2Th 3:5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.
We must be ever so careful to guard our hearts from the false dogma that we should only love to get. Unfortunately strongholds are being erected in the heart/mind of man and man does not even have a clue that these are being formed in him. Mostly when I view the 7 religions of this age I see satanism – which is to say self interest. I hear it all the time expressed if you ain’t with us – type of stuff. This is an elevation of Love of Self or “love of the creature”. This so called creature is elevated above the Creator. And this of course can never last and so enters disappointment and frustration.
Remember the scene in the Matrix part II where the Merovingian’s wife forced Neo to kiss her? This is akin to taking the Kingdom by Force. It is false love and it can never last. Do you remember what she said after she kissed him? She said she envied Trinity and furthermore that it will not last. This condition of false love is what false religion is used to. As such, she will always say “get all you can today – in the name of peace and love – because it ain’t gonna last forever.” But the Love of God written in our hearts does last forever!
This Love is unqualified and when it comes it releases the need for other conditional laws. Meaning one does what is right because one loves his brethren. There is no need for traffic signs when one has Love written in his heart – one will obey those traffic laws because of the Love expressed – for Love is the source and not Duty.
Notice too that there is a Power of Direction in the Administration of the Kingdom of God – thusly there is a required submission to a Higher Power. And we can say “Who shall lay any charge against God’s Elect”. For who shall stand against God? Therefore, we are to listen carefully and always seek the face and path and shadow of the Almighty.
Psa 91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Psa 91:2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Nevertheless does this nullify the world estates? Absolutely not. Does this mean the NWO will not come to exist? Absolutely Not. It will come to exist and those who fight against it do so to their own peril. In fact to fight against it is to validate it. And even much more than validation is that to fight against it gives the system evidence it needs to squash the rebellion – in the name of peace. These things will come to pass but we should not fear. Have you read Ezekiel 13? You might take a look at it. it is just another proof of our world today.

This just in from a friend of mine:
MJ wrote: Also take note the “season of the locusts” is May-Sept = 5 months or 150 days. Revelation agrees with Genesis = season of the locusts – see Book of Joel.
Response by GR: Yes you are correct regarding the locust, they have a major bloom every ” 17 ” years – there is the number 8, as in a 8th day circumcision, we either mentally circumcise ourselves, or YHVH will do it for us. The choice is now being made, this is a very unique time.

Essentially the problem is CHOICE. Some believe that man should not have choice. I believe that the “foundational principle” in the Kingdom of God is FREEDOM. But freedom means that I may use what is for my good in a negative manner and in doing so I may bring judgment upon my own head. Thusly with freedom comes full liability for my choices. Therefore he who would promote no choice in man – promotes total control of man = slavery of the many by the few.
Therefore Forced Peace is no peace at all for it does not originate from Love! Let it be Love brethren. Examine yourself – for Jesus disciplined his disciples.
Upon careful examination, you may be surprised to find how many Alters have been erected in you. Thusly we in the Power of God in Christ tear down those Alters and erect the Alters in Worship to the Creator. Who is forever praised – Amen.
Nevertheless when Love comes it does not release one from the Letter of the Law. This is the KEY DIFFERENCE. The Saints keep the Law and this is how they Love. For Jesus said IF you Love me, then keep my commandments. Jesus is The Word – thusly we rightly divide all of it. And we do it and in doing is the Love expressed. For again, Jesus said “why do you call me Lord and do not obey me?” Consider that one in regard to State.
It seems there is so much self absorbed love these days that Faith appears to be waning – the moon is turning Red – and the Sun [Love] is growing dark [cold]. And thusly we read the heart grows cold. For there is no Love of God in the Heart of man – those Alters have been torn down.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Isa 36:4 And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest?
Isa 36:5 I say, sayest thou, (but they are but vain words) I have counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
Isa 36:6 Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust in him.
Isa 36:7 But if thou say to me, We trust in the LORD our God: is it not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar?
Isa 36:8 Now therefore give pledges, I pray thee, to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them.
Isa 36:9 How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master’s servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen?
Comment: Let us now turn and return to the House of God – for thereof is our Foundation.
Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Comment: This lovely woman keeps the Law of God and thus Loves God and man.
THEREFORE the system loves it when folks fight against it! Do you see why? The only way to win is NOT to play the game. To play the game is to give validation to the systems principles and authority. Don’t you see that we are dealing with PRINCIPLES OF THOUGHT which undergird the State? These principles of thought are Strongholds.
And thusly these principles must be put on trial and examined whether or not they work. Do not fear – if the primary mover is not of Love – then the principle will fail – for it is in Outer Darkness.
Shalom,
MJ
