Is Life A Game Of Chess

Chess is being played everywhere, by everyone, you just don’t know it. And if you do know it, you are of course ahead of the game and winning. This is a scene from the movie, In Search of Bobby Fisher. I clipped this here because, IMO, its one of the best scene of all time. Right now, in the world, good and evil are playing a game of chess. God is in control, and satan is not liking it one bit. He is lashing out, trying to take everyone down with him. He plays the game and cheats, lies, deceives, tempts. He goes after the low hanging fruit and even the elect. In these last days of this age, he will sacrifice any pawn to save himself from being locked up in hell for a time. He thinks he is winning when he is destroying lives, taking chess pieces off the board, but he is really only losing more with each act of evil. He looks at his chess pieces and thinks he has control of the game on earth, but the truth is God is in control, always has been, always will be. Spoiler alert, God wins.

The Bridge Of Faith To God

God created all things. He also created us, and a bridge to Know Him, not understand Him. But you need a building permit, and you can get that from Jesus, by just asking Him, its free. And that bridge’s name is Faith, and the pieces of wood that make up that bridge are called Trust. The nails that hold it all together and keep it all together are called Honesty, and honesty is the only way to build that bridge. And when you and Jesus finally build the bridge of Faith, the only way you will Know in your heart whether that bridge is real or imagined is by taking that one real big step onto it. And that step is called Trust and Surrender.

Honesty With God Brings His Healing

What does honesty not bring to life and heal? It’s like cool water in a stream flowing here and there and bringing freshness and life to whatever it touches. It heals whatever it touches, even the places it has not been for a while or ever, even the darkest crevice and the deepest parts. It relaxes the soul, calms the nerves, and brings to mind what was forgotten out of fear to recall. It is a safe place to be when everything else within you seems at war.

Being in the Presence of God

It was evening, just finished my workout, and it was a struggle finding motivation to exercise. As I sat there, I knew I had not prayed in a few days, honestly, earnestly, quietly. I pray often during each day, but you know, that prayer that says to God, I know you are there, listening, and I want to be careful what I say to you, and talk to you from that place inside me that is totally honest, truthful, so much it hurts to think of it. Here’s that prayer. Do you ever feel like this?

Is The New Pope The Antichrist?

I want to post this, because I see many posts saying this is the antichrist here or there, i.e. the new pope, etc. especially if their name adds up to 666 in numeric terms.

The spirit of the antichrist has been around ever since Jesus resurrected. How do we know this? John tells us.

1 John 2:18, “Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour.”
