Here in Mexico, brother Daniel whom Jesus saved shortly after I arrived here …. just now called to tell me how he’s been led by our LORD today to go and pass out the Jesus tract. At length he told me about the adventure of passing them out and all the people he met, and ministering to people today. He was elated. God is good. Daniel is out there ministering our LORD’s Gospel.
“Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.” John 15:16
We are doing this together saints – “WE are labourers TOGETHER with God” (1 Corinthians 3:9). Now watch this that Jesus says ….
“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:14
The Divine Purpose of Pentecost
“And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: 19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:” Acts 2:17-19
“God is amazing! He is pouring out His blessings in these last days to those who are following Him with all their hearts.” Karen Cochran
There is simply no way to keep up with all the kingdom victory that is transpiring across the nation, in Zambia, and here in Mexico. Please pray for more and more fruitfulness to the glory of Jesus Christ.
“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” 1 Corinthians 3:9
As has been done for many years now, we continue to send the Scripture-rich ministry books to the incarcerated, etc. This transpired several times weekly now. And this includes the J6 prisoners. Now we are beginning a new initiative to reach the new Trump cabinet, each person in it. It’s interesting that Trump and others have been saying “Make America PRAY Again.” The Scripture-rich ministry book we have is titled Let America PRAY Again which is the book we want to drop in late January to each member of Trump’s cabinet, LORD willing – if the supply, the finances are received. For now, we’ve mailed Donald Trump a copy of this volume along with the Born Again book.

UPDATE FROM PA: TWO MORE SOULS SAVED!
“The Lord saved two more residents in the home! Glory hallelujah! Two more taken out of the snares of Satan. The only reason I share this is to give the Lord the Glory He deserves.
When we first started going in the home there was a lady who would come in and be very disruptive and angry. She never would stay long. The Lord said watch and pray. Eventually we asked her if she would like to sing. She said no angerly, but took the song. She kept coming but would not stay. And continued to be disruptive. In and out a lot. But it was obvious the Lord was working on her heart. Sometimes she would yell at the other residents. Even screaming at times. And if she did talk it was nonsensical talk. Very hard to make sense of what she was saying. The Lord kept saying watch and pray and show her love. Each week we would smile at her and let her know she was welcome. One day we offered her a Jesus tract. She took it and put in her coat. This week she came in and she was the first one there. And she was completely calm!! Her whole demeanor had changed! She was smiling and began to talk to us telling us about her life. It was astonishing to see what the Lord had done in her heart! Here was a completely changed women right before our eyes! And she was in her right mind. We have no idea what the Lord did in her heart, but we know it was Him! Most astonishing was the fact she let me hug her! She pushed people completely away from her previously. Jesus set this lady free! Hallelujah! And He has come to set the captives free! This verse is for all of us! Luke 4:18. We are team Jesus!”

KINGDOM BREAKING – MORE GOOD NEWS FROM PA!
KINGDOM BREAKING: Jesus Saved Jim!
— This is exactly what transpires, the results, of the Word going forth into the hearts of men and women – harvest! (Psalms 126:5-6; Isaiah 55:11; John 4:34-38, etc.).
From Tom and Karen Cochran, PA Mission
“Jim was saved by Jesus today in the home. He prayed the prayer in the Jesus tract then fell asleep. Lol.
We did lose one of the regulars named Carol. She would sit and hold my hand almost the whole time we were there. I missed her today but she is with Jesus who, it was obvious, she loved. Her whole face would light up with joy whenever the name of Jesus was mentioned.
One of the residents named Ted blessed us today playing his harmonica. I told him, ‘I am so excited to hear you play for us.’ He screamed, ‘Me too’! I took a picture of him which he kept asking to see. Lol. Picture attached.
More Jesus tracts were given out as there are many who cannot join us for various reasons.
We are so very blessed by the Lord to be in this home. This is only because of Jesus that this is even possible. He gets all the praise and Glory!”
Concerning the JESUS tracts being distributed….
“Yes. It could be the residents passing them out to other residents. There is now a joy among the ones being saved. When I first when in there with my mom I was struck by the sadness I sensed in the people. There were there to die with no hope. Jesus has brought them hope and now it seems they are spreading that hope to others. It’s like the lady at the well when Jesus saved her and she ran into her town and said come and see this man is He not the Christ? John 4: 1-42. Yes Amen! And all we do is plant the seeds and the Lord provides the increase. It’s so amazing to watch the seeds bloom! As you are also witnessing! It’s like you have said you give one person a tract and someone standing nearby says can I have one too? It is the same in this home. They are hungry. They have already been stripped of pride because they can’t do much for themselves. So their hearts are open. They are no longer dependent on themselves. So they are seeking something outside of themselves. Yes like the thief on the cross. Last minute repentance. They are really without hope, knowing they are soon to die. They receive Jesus immediately! As it seems for you in Mexico, they have very open hearts.”
TODAY IN MEXICO: THIS was a first. Ministered to a satanist named Andrick today. He was told about the precious blood of Jesus and how he could be washed clean of all his sins. He was told in Spanish also that Jesus Christ died for our sins, is the only way to God, etc. Never have I seen such a nice satanist. As soon as I began speaking God’s Word to him, he let me know he’s a satanist, showing me the pentagram on the chain around his neck. I just kept smiling and preaching the Gospel. He listened intently to every word and surely he sees the light, love, joy, and peace of Christ in His people vs the darkness in his fellow satanists. God is able. As many of you have, I’ve ministered to many satanists but none this receptive. Please pray for Andrick.
“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.” Romans 1:16
Dezi Langohr (Glenn’s wife)
The Holy Spirit led me to find a couple REALLY GOOD sources for free tracts! These ones I’m working on now are the BEST I’ve found! (I read all the contents before ordering to test and check doctrine) They are SOUND!
And they shipped SUPER quick!
On top of it, God Moved to bless us with so many of the JESUS tracts from SafeGuardYourSoul / Todd Tomasella.
So I am doubling them up with the tracts I just got to hand out during our upcoming preaches!
God is SO MIGHTY and I am in AWE of Him daily!!
If anyone would like the sources to order some tracts to hand out, let me know!
Videos of Glenn and his wife Dezi and their baby ministering on the streets. Here.
More from PA with Tom and Karen Cochran
“Ellie received Jesus today. She cried and cried as she doesn’t understand why God has her in this (retirement) home. And why her family has left her. Another lady who received Jesus a few weeks ago expressed the same pain. We hugged them both and prayed with them. They really needed someone to listen and the comfort of the Lord. Ellie was given a KJB because she said she lost her Bible but many years ago was comforted when she read the Psalms. So much heartbreak. They feel abandoned by God and their families. They need the comfort of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 1:3-5. As they receive comfort from the Lord they will be able to comfort others who also feel abandoned. As most do when they are placed in this home. Please pray for them.
God loves them so much! They kept asking why has God forsaken me? This made me cry with them! Jesus cried these words on the cross because God had to turn away as He was carrying our sins on the cross! God could not look. It seemed to calm their hearts to hear Jesus asked the same question! God wants the honesty of our hearts! All we could do was hug them and tell them God loves you! Jesus died for you!”
The JESUS tract is now on the ground in Zambia! Elder Chabby printed a few copies out after he was sent the pdf.
Exactly where you are is part of “all the world.”
“And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” Mark 16:15-16
Also, Jesus gives His Gospel as an ultimatum. Is Jesus intending that we bring the hearers of His Gospel to a decision? Seems like it. Read the passage again.
The #1 download item on the ministry site is the print-ready JESUS tract which is available in English and Spanish so far.
Elder Chabby in Zambia Update
“DEAR TODD, WE HAVE NO TIME TO LOSE. THE END IS NEAR. THE PASSAGE FROM PLACE TO PLACE TO SPREAD THE TRUTH WILL SOON BE HEDGED WITH DANGERS ON THE RIGHT HAND AND ON THE LEFT HAND. EVERYTHING WILL BE PLACED TO OBSTRUCT THE WAY OF THE LORD’S MESSENGERS, SO THAT THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO THAT WHICH IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THEM TO DO NOW. WE STAND REBUKED BY GOD BECAUSE MANY CITIES ARE UNWORKED AND UNWARNED. THE TRUTH MUST BE CARRIED FROM CITY TO CITY, FROM STREET TO STREET, FROM FAMILY TO FAMILY. . . . THE TRUTH MUST BE CARRIED FROM PROVINCE TO PROVINCE, FROM KINGDOM TO KINGDOM. THE HIGHWAYS AND BYWAYS MUST BE THOROUGHLY GLEANED, AND THE MESSAGE MUST SPREAD FROM CONTINENT TO CONTINENT UNTIL THE EARTH IS BELTED WITH THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.” ELDER CHABBY ALFRED CHABALA
From Tom and Karen Cochran
“Five more received Jesus today in the home! We started out with five, just two weeks ago. Today we had ten. They are telling their friends! These people are so hungry they hang on every Word of God.
God has saved ten people from that home already! They are so open! And we are only His servants! He is drawing people. He has placed us right by the nursing station for all to hear His message! As we read the Jesus tract.
Also one of the nurses joined us in singing the song ‘there’s just something about that name.’
Now the residents are beginning to talk about forming a worship team. I heard them trying to recruit their friends. So far we have Tom on guitar, Ted on harmonica, one lady on piano, and Carol who can sing.
These people have gone from no hope to being so filled with the joy of the Lord that they can’t wait to share it! Hallelujah.”

Mexico Mission Momentum Part 41
The first shipment of Spanish Bibles has arrived!!!
A staggering miracle has befallen Maria’s precious life and she still can’t believe it!
ALL because YOU have said “YES JESUS, I am going to lift this beloved sister in Christ, this laborer for our LORD in prayer…. and you are giving to help her!
You my friend are guilty of delivering glory to God and a death blow to the enemy of all souls!
We are now finding out that Maria works and 3 different locations each day. This is how she is able to distribute hundreds of JESUS tracts daily.
When Jesus says “I will build my church” He was not speaking about collecting money to build physical buildings. That came in with the pagan catholic church hundreds of years later. No, Jesus was speaking of building His kingdom in the hearts of men, beginning with the revelation that He is the Messiah (Matthew 16:18).
If the money you give isn’t going directly into the Great Commission Jesus gave us, you are wasting your giving (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20).
Building up Gospel laboring fruit-filled diligent disciples such as Juan and Maria, is building Christ’s church! Oil the wheels that roll!
“The blessed word says that freely we receive, freely we give. For from His fullness we all receive grace upon grace, blessing upon blessing, brother. So Paul said, ‘Woe to me if I do not do it!’ Then we must do the Great Commission that God gave us for His honor and glory.” Juan
Juan and Maria are being continually tended to, supported with prayer etc.
Brother Mark went to spend some time with sister Maria for the first time and found out she needs a new cell phone. So, we bought her one……..
Maria is a widow and works 3 different “jobs” that are tips only. Her rental is $100 per month. She only told us this information because we asked her. Maybe someone would be prompted to begin paying sister Maria’s rent? God is able amen.
“That we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.”
We’ve been meeting with brother Juan and sister Maria regularly, sometimes daily.
“We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellowhelpers to the truth.” 3 John 8
Spiritually and supply wise, refreshing and re-stocking these disciples (and others) is our part, our opportunity and privilege. And you have been a big part of this saints. Your prayer and support have been and are vital.
Recently restocked brother Juan and brought Maria about 2k tracts last night
She was elated.
Your prayers and support are making this possible.
“I will never cease to be amazed by how hungry these people are for God! From all the pictures it looks like they begin to read the Jesus tract as soon as they receive it! In America, it’s very hard to find people who truly want Jesus because they are rich and in need of nothing and have no idea how wretched, miserable, poor, and blind they are. Rev 3:17. Including those so-called Christians! Who just try to put Jesus over their filthy rags! Nothing but dead religion. Yet they believe they are good and will be in heaven, when inside they are white-washed tombs. It’s refreshing to see the hunger of the beloved Mexico people! Thank you for sharing all these stories of how the Lord is touching hearts! Blessed to be a small part of this ministry.” Karen Cochran | Mission Mexico
Your prayers and support are going a long way to help Mission Mexico!!
The Bibles God’s people sent just arrived and will be distributed to incarcerated Mexicans soon.
The JESUS tract is being distributed daily by the hundreds with the Word of God spoken in those exchanges.
“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” 1 Corinthians 3:9
“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” Hebrews 6:10
Please allow me to remind you … that your prayers and financial fuel are essential to what is going on here and each of Christ’s disciples shall be rewarded equally, fully—no matter what part they play! 1 Samuel 30:24
Recently I became desperate as the need for financial supply dropped like a bless-ed bomb within a short window of time. Instead of trusting I panicked instead of taking it to the LORD and trusting Him. The reception of Juan and Maria has been earth shaking, a type of sign from God that He loves and desires to save the bless-ed and beautiful people of Mexico. America has rejected the LORD saints.
“And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.” Matthew 10:14
Can you even believe that our LORD is using us, you and I and others, to give His glorious Gospel to the nation, the people of Mexico?!
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?” Romans 10:13-14
The Gospel momentum continues to grow:
From brother Juan: “Brother Cresenciano asked me if I had any Jesus pamphlets he could take with him and hand out, and said he wanted to serve his neighbor with love. Glory to God!”
Over 20,000 JESUS tracts in print here in Mexico. More than 12,000 have been distributed to date. We are now beginning to take in love offerings to print the next 10,000 JESUS tracts.
Okay, from now on, if you see a pic of someone holding a stash or stack of JESUS tracts, it’s because they agreed to do so, they asked for more tracts in order to reach their world here in Mexico with the Gospel of Jesus. Gospel momentum!
Brother Juan and sister Maria and several others in Christ are blazing a Gospel trail (Mark 1:45). Jesus is coming.
Thank you for lifting Mission Mexico, the people of Mexico, in prayer.
Thank you for praying for Mission Mexico.
Your prayers and support are fueling the reaching of scores of precious Mexican people, daily!
You have the same reward as the foot soldiers….
1 Samuel 30:24
“For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Luke 19:10

“Cursed be the Man that Trusteth in Man” [podcast]
A Nuclear Revelation
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
“Cursed be the man that trusteth in man” is a powerful verse from the Bible, commonly associated with a specific warning against relying on human strength rather than God.”
So many act like Spurgeon or some other mere man’s writings are on the same level as Holy Scripture. NOT! They prove their idolatry. They are in sin. They glory in mere men and not the LORD! Hell awaits. Jeremiah 17:5; Isaiah 2:22; 1 Corinthians 1:29-31, etc.
God calls us to worship, love, seek, trust, and obey Him as the ultimate authority of our lives in this world.
Another example of this is the idolatry of the demonic fraud CS Lewis!
THIS JUST IN:
“Amen! Amen for Prov 10:22. All glory be to Him!
By the grace of God I discovered last night your website, praise Him, in search for exposure on CS Lewis.
By the grace of God I learnt as a baby believer, 20 years ago, that his teachings are dangerous including that witchcraft book and movie, Narnia. Sadly, so called mature Christians in the UK are considering him a saint, a born again believer.
I sent prayerfully ( as I expected backlashes) to my friend last night, a few links exposing CS Lewis including the photo from your website which is brilliant exposure, praise Him but she is still claiming that he ” was truly a born again” ….. sending me his videos! It’s a principle: I don’t watch, read listen to CS Lewis and many others! The Bible is so rich in teachings, why do I need CS Lewis!? !?
My friend is a mature believer, born again believer for over 60-70 years and she cannot see it!
I had to use the VPN and duckduck search engine to get the website exposing CS Lewis, as in the UK, nothing will come up! Mostly of the Christians are bewitched by Narnia and Lord of the Rings! No wonder the country is in such a state of delusion! May the Lord have mercy!
Many blessings in His Name, V.”
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22
Those who look to men, who receive un-biblical counsel instead of testing it against the Word of God, are trusting in mere man and have brought a curse upon themselves (Jeremiah 17:5-6; Acts 17:10-11; 2 Timothy 3:16-17, etc.). Those who look anywhere except to the LORD Himself are idolaters, are committing spiritual adultery, and will without exception depart from Him and be lost (v. 5). Their names “shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters” (v. 13). The phrase “written in the earth” is in contrast to their names being “written in heaven” (Luke 10:20; Hebrews 12:23). Hell is in the bowels of the earth and that’s where every single person who is not looking wholly to the LORD will spend eternity (Revelation 20:11-15).
Let me get this straight, you pretend to be saved and yet run to some foolish sinner to get drugged for lack of peace or ability to sleep or depression. You are completely deceived and God is calling you to repent now. If you knew Him, would you not be trusting Him and not sinful mere men? “Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD (Jeremiah 17:5).
You’ve tried the CURSE and it never worked…. Are you ready to let CHRIST make you whole?
Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. 6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert (spiritually dry, desolate), and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited. 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? 10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings. 11 As the partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth them not; so he that getteth riches, and not by right, shall leave them in the midst of his days, and at his end shall be a fool. 12 A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary. 13 O LORD, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the LORD, the fountain of living waters. 14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” Jeremiah 17:5-14
Psychology/psychobabble, therapy from mere men, sinners…. is a scam, and leaves the victim without hope. Jesus Christ is the only hope for man’s core dilemma—which is sin! ANY person pointing you to a “THE-RAPIST” is demon inspired. They speak against the Word of God and are the child of the devil! See Colossians 2:6-10. SINNERS need the Savior—not some sinner with an indoctrination in the fine of art of applying bandages, never getting to the root. Repent now (Jeremiah 17:9). Jesus alone can make a man whole! (Luke 4:18)
Man’s therapy and psychobabble are laughably insufficient and have never once gotten to the root issue of man’s dilemma which is sin. Jesus says that He “came into the world to save sinners” (1 Timothy 1:15).
Drugs and psychobabble are laughable mere band aids to rob unbelievers, gullible dupes of their money.
“Jesus Christ maketh thee whole”
Only One can make you whole—the One who made you and died and rose again for you.
“And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately.” Acts 9:34
“Yep that’s me, the woman with the Alabaster box. And that is all I need—my alabaster box and Jesus! No need for meds or to be psycho-analyzed by some quack. One touch from Jesus is all I need! Just as the woman who touched the hem of His garment and was immediately healed! Luke 8: 43-48. One touch is all she needed.” Karen Cochran

Modern Day Cult of Personality Exposed [podcast]
What is the Cult of Personality?
“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1 John 4:1
Beware when you see any mere man enshrined, basically worshipped by his followers. This is all too common in today’s church world and sometimes it’s very subtle. When people begin putting what a mere man says above what God says in His Word, when they quote him instead of the Bible, you know you have a cult.
One source notes:
“A cult of personality, or a cult of the leader, is the result of an effort to create an idealized and heroic image of an admirable leader, often through unquestioning flattery and praise.”‘
CS Lewis has a cult following today, 100%. I’ve encountered it first hand. These people don’t care what you show them as far as the blatant falsehoods he spoke, and have soul tied their affections to him and will defend him no matter what.
A quick search on “what CS Lewis said about the Catholic church”…
“As an Anglican, C.S. Lewis shared many beliefs with the Catholic Church, including the Real Presence in the Eucharist, the necessity of confession, and a belief in Purgatory. However, he explicitly rejected papal authority, the concept of papal infallibility, and certain Marian doctrines.
Shared Beliefs
Lewis held a deeply sacramental and traditional view of Christianity, which aligned closely with Catholic theology:
The Sacraments: He regularly went to confession to a priest and viewed the Eucharist as central to the faith.
The Afterlife: He famously argued that “our souls demand Purgatory”, writing that we would naturally want to be cleansed of our sins before standing in God’s presence.
Devotion: He had a high view of saints and appreciated traditional liturgical practices.”
The same is true for modern day celebrities such as Candace Owens. On a recent live broadcast where she interviewed a man, he showed her live on air, that she was wrong about several things and kindly asked her to apologize several times. Regrettably, Candace was unwilling to apologize, and most of her cult followers backed her up, cheered her on.
She was called to account for false info and didn’t apologize when asked to.
Her followers cheered her on, never stopping to question things.
Their hearts are set on her not Christ (Colossians 3:1-4).
No matter WHAT she says, they believe it.
Wow.
Jesus says:
“I receive not honour from men. … 44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?” John 5:41, 44
By saying this, Jesus condemns putting trust in any mere man.
Jesus makes it clear here that anyone who puts their heart affections in a mere man or woman, is unable to believe on the LORD Jesus Christ for eternal life.
“And these things, brethren, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that ye might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another. 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?” 1 Corinthians 4:6-7
“4:6 He first explains that in speaking about the Christian ministry and the tendency to follow human leaders (3:5-4:5), he used himself and Apollos as the examples. The Corinthians were not forming parties around Paul and Apollos alone, but also around other men who were then in their church. However, out of a sense of Christian courtesy and delicacy, Paul transferred the entire matter to himself and Apollos so that by their example the saints would learn not to have exaggerated opinions of their leaders or to gratify their pride by the formation of parties. He wanted the saints to evaluate everything and everyone by the Scriptures.
4:7 If one Christian teacher is more gifted than another, it is because God made him so. Everything he has, he received from the Lord. In fact it is true of all of us that everything we have has been given to us by God. That being the case, why should we be proud or puffed up? Our talents and gifts are not the result of our own cleverness.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.” John 8:37
“The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.” Proverbs 29:25
“Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
“Cease ye from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?” Isaiah 2:22
“LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is; that I may know how frail I am. 5 Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah.” Psalms 139:4-5
“A glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.” Jeremiah 17:12
“Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:14-16
1 Corinthians 1:29-2:5
“that no flesh should glory in his presence. 30 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 31 that, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.
2:1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 5 that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
“2:5 Paul knew that there was the utmost danger that his hearers might be interested in himself or in his own personality rather than in the living Lord. Conscious of his own inability to bless or to save, he determined that he would lead men to trust in God alone rather than in the wisdom of men. All who proclaim the gospel message or teach the word of God should make this their constant aim.” Believer’s Bible Commentary
“Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.” Psalms 17:2
“Sentence” here means verdict.
Prayer of Repentance to be Restored to the LORD: Holy Father, in the name of Jesus Christ and by His precious blood He shed to make me one with You, I come to you—in my sinful state. LORD, I openly acknowledge that I have departed from You and sinfully rebelled against You in the sin of idolatry. Right this moment, if never before, I call upon You, Holy Father, asking You to forgive my sins, to change my life, to break me to the core of my being. I fully believe that Jesus Christ is God Almighty, that He came in the flesh, lived a sinless life as the very only begotten Son of God, died on the cross for the sins of mankind, was buried, rose again from the dead, and is soon going to return! I love You my LORD Jesus and from this moment forward, I am all Yours! I will follow You according to Your Word and Holy Spirit. Please fill me with Your Holy Ghost and use me every day of my life that You grant! In Jesus’ name, amen!
