Beware Of These Scammers. Part [12] 09/14/2026 (Morning thought)

Isaiah 30:21 And your ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk you in it, when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left.

Especially will this be the case more and more as we head into unprecedented times, where temptations and trials of no ordinary character will be coming in from all angles and directions. In fact, there will be some situations and emergencies, where you would need God to direct you, as to what course of action to pursue. If we habitually seek His face earnestly, God is able to reach us directly in ways that we will recognize as His voice.

It might be through His providences, or it may be by His direct intervention, but we have the assurance, that He will not leave us to suffer at the hands of evil men and seducers, if we diligently seek Him. There are temptations that are permitted to come to the Christian on occasion, but more frequently a person can invite temptation by having their guard down. Walking and living in the Spirit will make the mind much more sensitive to His voice.

We are living in increasingly perilous times, and now more than ever, we should ask The Lord to clothe us with the armory of heaven, even from the crown of our heads to the soles of our feet, so that the varied assaults and incursions of the prince of darkness or his agents could be averted, wherever it is the will of God. We therefore end with a passage of Scripture which will help us to stay in tune with God throughout the day, for it is His will that all be well informed as to how we can live victoriously, both now and into the future.

Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world against spiritual wickedness in high places.

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

Beware Of These Scammers. Part [11] 09/14/2026 (Evening thought)

Proverbs 3: 4 So shalt thou find favor and good understanding in the sight of God and man. 5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

A request for the utmost secrecy is a definite red flag, for if you are in some type of trouble, your family and your bank are the first ones who should know about it. [4] The demand for unusual payment methods such as Crypto, wire transfers cash and gift cards. Be very careful about clicking on links coming from any text message, E-mail, especially if they are unsolicited. If the unknown individual asks for your password, or your signature, that is usually a sign to flee.

[5] Caller I.D. in an age of artificial intelligence. The scammers could cause your financial institution’s number to actually appear on your caller I.D. If this is the case, hang up and call the institution directly and ask to speak to a real person, before doing any transaction. [6] Last but not least, it is becoming more and more critically important for us to lead a consistent prayer life because if our hearts and minds are in tune with The Lord’s, He’ll be able to give us a heads-up more readily, than if our prayer life is generic.

It’s not that He isn’t speaking, the question is are we listening for His voice throughout the day, and in our everyday experiences. God is a Spirit, and the habits of regular earnest prayer and study of His word puts the mind in a mode in which the still small voice can be heard more readily…. Proverbs 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Proverbs 3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

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