Have You Seen This Man? Part [3] 01/16/2026 (Evening thought)

Psalms 78:I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old: That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments.

In our day the same mistake is being repeated daily as persons become fixated on man, instead of being focused on God, and what His word has declared will surely come to pass. As a result, many are asking the same question that was asked in the days of Goliath: Have you seen this man? In almost everything that transpires today, it is all about the man. But, you will never hear on the news that it is Daniel chapter 12, or Matthew 24, or Revelation 12 to 14 unfolding.

And because of this, the God of heaven is being left entirely out of the picture, as if He has lost control of the midnight train that’s apparently going off the rails. It’s never about prophecy being fulfilled, instead, it’s all about the man and as folks become all consumed with what man can do, what God can, and will do is lost in the mix, as God becomes smaller and smaller in their minds, until some can go so far as to believe that The Lord is not able to stop, or intervene in the affairs of men.

Whenever the saints of God begin to look to a mere man for answers and solutions, or when they begin to trust in man, the power of God usually begins to shrink gradually in their minds, and if the situation is not addressed and corrected it can cause their faith to become crystalized.

Psalms 78:10 They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law; 11 And forgot his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them. 12 Marvelous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!

Have You Seen This Man? Part [2] 01/15/2026 (Morning thought)

1st Kings 18: 17 And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubles Israel?

[Prophets & Kings pp 124>125] A year passes, and yet there is no rain. The earth is parched as if with fire. The scorching heat of the sun destroys what little vegetation has survived. Streams dry up, and lowing herds and bleating flocks wander hither and thither in distress. Once-flourishing fields have become like burning desert sands, a desolate waste.

The air is dry and suffocating; dust storms blind the eyes and nearly stop the breath. Once-prosperous cities and villages have become places of mourning. Hunger and thirst are telling upon man and beast with fearful mortality. Famine, with all its horror, comes closer and still closer. They were unwilling to humble themselves under the mighty hand of God, and they began to cast about for some other cause to which to attribute their sufferings.

Jezebel utterly refused to recognize the drought as a judgment from Jehovah. Unyielding in her determination to defy the God of heaven, she, with nearly the whole of Israel, united in denouncing Elijah as the cause of all their misery…. Again, when people take their focus off of God, bad luck or misfortune becomes a byproduct of the man in question, and God is left out of the equation.

Daniel 4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
