[Music] If you are seeing this video, there's something that you need to hear before November ends. So, when I was spending some time with God today, I was looking out my window, and there's just a singular pine tree. I actually made another video, and I opened it up to another page with a pine tree.
So, I've been referencing this little synchronicity I had in my life today. I will also, of course, every time pray for confirmation with the Holy Spirit and with God, and this was a full yes; this was a really full yes. So, I opened up to Luke 21, and it's actually really interesting.
Um, it's a very, very interesting chapter. If you do have a Bible, I encourage you to go and read this; it's very interesting. The message that was coming out for this video is, before November ends, friends, see that you are not led astray.
Right now, we need, as a collective, a lot of spiritual discernment. Jesus, in Luke 21, talks about the end times. He talks about the signs that will mark the end times.
He talks about famines; he talks about earthquakes, wars. This is a call for believers to really wake up, to really, really, really wake up and realize that this is real, that this is true, that this is happening. What really shook me was when it says, from Luke 21:20, "But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then you know that its desolation has come near.
Let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are outside the country enter it. " I mean, there's obviously wars going on right now in Israel, so I was like, "Wow, that's powerful. " So we need to really be aware of the times that we are living in because that's how we will recognize that His hand is at work.
Whatever Jesus says is true, right? Because He knows everything. He is the Son of God; He knows what's going to happen.
He's eternal, so He knows. Everything He said leading up to that, everything He said in His life was true because He had that divine knowledge, that divine wisdom, as it was sent directly from God into Him. I just want to remind you that the world's chaos is not random; it's all a part of a greater narrative that God has set, that God has decided.
If you felt a call to really go deeper into your spiritual life and strengthen your connection with Jesus, strengthen your connection with God, then do it now. It is the time to pay attention. God is asking us to be watchful, discerning, and to really see beyond what's on the surface.
In this chapter, Jesus is really warning believers and preparing them to face judgment, to face opposition, to face rejection, persecution, and trials. For people who really follow Christ, for those who follow Christ, there will be a refining process. Right now, times where we are tested, purified, and made stronger—made really, really strong in our faith.
I've been dealing with this in my life; I've had people maybe try and persecute me or try and make me not believe, question my faith. But this has just been an opportunity. I know, because I have spiritual discernment, that I need to just be stronger in my faith because this is all a test to see how much I love God.
I love Jesus; I love the Holy Spirit. So, do not get led astray by anyone trying to persecute you, anyone trying to reject you or make you question your beliefs. This is now a time to stand really firm and trust in God's protection.
So, before November ends, this is going to be a theme coming up in your life. In verses 17 to 19, Jesus says, "You will be hated by everyone because of me, but not a hair of your head will perish. Stand firm, and you will win life.
" This is really a promise of God's protection that God's protection covers those who trust in Him. While the world may reject or challenge believers, God's hand is over you. When you are questioned, when you are persecuted, God's hand is over you.
When you stand firm in your beliefs, you'll have everlasting life. Right now is a perfect time to be spreading the gospel. Like me, you can be making YouTube videos, and I actually encourage you to start a YouTube channel and make videos, because this time right now, with social media, the messages can be shown to so many people.
You can get so much exposure through social media. So, if you've had maybe an inclination or had some thoughts and maybe God's been inspiring you to start a YouTube channel or start posting on social media about the gospel, please do that! Please do that!
Do not ignore this. Now is the time to be spreading the gospel, spreading the truth. You may feel a nudge to talk about your testimony, to share your story.
If you feel that nudge, please follow it, because that's God telling you that more people need to hear about this. More people need to hear your story. More people need to understand the transformation and the power that God—what God can do in lives.
So, I am going to make a testimony video as well, talking about how I went from a girl of the world to a girl in Christ. A godly girl—um, a godly woman—He will give you the wisdom and words that you need to articulate to the masses and to the people that need to hear it. In times of darkness, your voice is meant to be a light.
So, however that is for you. Your story could impact anybody. Your story could touch and resonate with someone who's still of the world or who is still lukewarm.
By sharing your story, by sharing the truth of how good God is, you bring that truth to them. And that truth, when it gets brighter and louder, cannot be ignored. So right now, before November ends, there's a promise of redemption and restoration.
Jesus says that when these things start to happen—the persecution, the rejection, the divide—we should look up. That should be our sign to look up and strengthen our connection with the Eternal One, with our Heavenly Father. Before November ends is crucial because this is probably going to happen in your life.
If you are seeing this and you resonate with this message, I want to tell you that when these things happen, the message behind this is one of hope. I need to come on here to tell believers that through the trials, through the challenges, all the tribulations are leading into something really, really beautiful. This is God-given glory to God.
God is bringing something into your life that is going to be so beautiful, so peaceful, so full of purpose. He is going to reveal something to you that is going to add wisdom to your life, to excel you and exalt you into the greatest version of who God knows you can be. Glory to God!
But don't think that you won't have to deal with persecution, trials, and tribulations; this is all a part of the process. This is actually divine because it's God's way of knowing how firm you are in your beliefs, how much you love Him, how much you trust Him, and how much you glorify Him. These times that we are in right now call for discernment, endurance, and steadfast faith because He is coming back.
So we have to prepare our hearts, get out of our lukewarm era, rebuke anything negative, and repent because He is coming back. We just have to spiritually prepare for it and get ready for it because it's going to happen. But if you are feeling uncertain or afraid, remember Jesus's words: "Stand firm, and you will win life.
