Luke 18 (KJV)

10 Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican (tax man).
11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
12 I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
13 And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth (promotes) himself shall be abased (humiliated); and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted (promoted).


17 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.


18 And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?
19 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God.
20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
21 And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
23 And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.
24 And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?




27 And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

John 3 (KJV)

5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.



14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten (produced) Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.




17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

We are to testify the gospel of God's grace through Jesus Christ. Why people view the Bible as fire and brimstone is of their own guilt and Satan and his followers.

The Bible is her to protect not punish. It's not easy an easy task to train yourself to live righteous, that is why we have God's grace, mercy, Word and faithful children to help us along the journey. To give us examples on what to do and not to do. To teach us how to live godly on this wicked earth. - Karmen 





19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved (scolded).
21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest (apparent), that they are wrought (created) in God.

1 Corinthians 4 (KJV)


3 But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yea, I judge not mine own self.
4 For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord.
5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.


7 For who maketh thee to differ from another? and what hast thou that thou didst not receive? now if thou didst receive it, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?
8 Now ye are full, now ye are rich, ye have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God ye did reign, that we also might reign with you.



10 We are fools for Christ's sake, but ye are wise in Christ; we are weak, but ye are strong; ye are honourable, but we are despised.



20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.
21 What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

Matthew 6 (KJV)

1 Take heed that ye do not your alms (charity) before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when thou doest thine (charity) alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
3 But when thou doest alms (charity), let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 That thine alms (charity) may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.

Whenever you do any act of kindness, charity or such, do it from your heart. Let it be between you and God. Don't announce what you did or what you are going to do....when you do that you are looking for man's approval. Keep it between you and God. Do it anomalously. ~ Karmen



5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.


Practicing righteousness according to the Bible and Catholicism are not the same.  Those who practice Catholicism go into a confessional (closet like small room) to pray to man to ask for forgiveness.  Read what Jesus says about praying to God.  

Look carefully at verse 6.  What religion do you know of that has you sit in a closet like room to confess your sins?  The Catholic church.  That act is an abomination to God.  Again, another way the Pharisees to get back at Jesus. The only mediator between us and God is Jesus.  Not Mary (Jesus' mother) nor a Priest (a sinful man like the rest of us). ~ Karmen





9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed (honor as holy) be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

With money, never had too much myself, to get too crazy....I do have debt to pay off , which I keep forgetting to ask God to forgive me for in my prayers.  Please don't forget to ask God to forgive you for your debts...and remember to forgive those who owe you too. ~ Karmen





16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance (a person's face or facial expression.): for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

Fasting should be between you and God only.  Make sure you keep yourself up during this time.  Meaning your face may appear to look a bit off, keep it moisturized and healthy looking.  If you have to exfoliate do that.  Also, keep your breath fresh. Chew on some parsley, mint, ginger.  You can also freshen it with ACV (Bragg's raw).  When fasting your body releases toxins which is so beneficial to your body and spirit.  During this time your brain cells increase and with that happening you become more in tune with your spirit.  You will find yourself leaning more to the Holy Spirit rather than your emotions.  Very rewarding!  You will see growth and change in your spiritual abilities.  ~ Karmen





19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:
20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

You should be able to walk away from all that you own if a catastrophe should happen. Can you do that?  If not, mentally prepare yourself now.  It would be hard for me to walk away from anything that I spent a paycheck on, so I don't make those type of purchases.  Am not speaking on a car or a home, although we will be faced with that in the end times...am talking about modern technology, furniture, things, etc.....No wonder so many of us are in debt.  We live beyond our means (false prosperity) and we are not living the way God instructs us to (basic needs being met) - Basic Needs Timothy 6 (KJV).  ~ Karmen







22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
A lot of us have the gift to see a person's soul through their eyes...whether they are evil or not. ~ Karmen




24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon (money).

Church:  Spiritual Prosperity or Financial Prosperity?  Can't be both.  Choose one or the other.  The latter, you are not serving God. ~ Karmen








25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?



27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?




28 And why take ye thought for raiment (clothes)? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin:
29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?



31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?




32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.




33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.


Seek to please God by continuing to practice righteousness and all your earthly needs such as food, clothes and shelter God will bless you with.  Have faith; Easier said than done, but we can't please God without it. ~ Karmen






34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

Signs O Times



Apocalypse Revelation - Reveal




Apocalyptic thinking is about how there is an universal invisible network led by an arch criminal mastermind. Apocalypse (Greek: Ἀποκάλυψις -translit. apoca'lipsis, literally: the lifting of the veil), is a term applied to the disclosure to certain privileged persons of something hidden from the majority of humankind.





Luke 12 (KJV)
4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. 5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.





22 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23 The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment (clothes).




29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink, neither be ye of doubtful mind.
30 For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: and your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. 31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.





32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell that ye have, and give alms (charity); provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth. 34 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.





39 And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.
40 Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.
