THE RULING AUTHORITY

 Today, as I woke up, my focus was on  forging forward with the publishing of my book, Beautiful Daughter and my worship album, “In the Secret Place.”  My  attention was caught by a blaring headline on a YouTube video: THIS IS DISTURBING.
   And it was!
   Christian brothers and sisters. I urge you to put aside  your annoyance of my end time posts and blogs. Do not take lightly, the prophets dire messages to BE READY for Jesus, repent and be immersed in fasting and prayer. Daniel chapter 9.  Our country is in serious trouble and we need to start  doing our research and keep abreast of what the end-time prophets are   predicting in the  days to come.  Some of us musicians are focused on our music careers, but we will not have the luxury of recording and doing gigs when  Martial law and Sharia law come into being!
     My  beloved pastor Augusto Perez, The Appearance Ministries, mentions again and again that the Church is asleep at the wheel. He faithfully admonishes us 3 times each week to  come up higher in our authority.

    ARE YOU LISTENING, BROTHER OR SISTER?  Don’t be offended, just obey,  humble yourself and get together with  brethren who know how to pray and declare God’s word  with authority.
   Our nation is heading towards civil unrest, food shortages and  shutdowns of our major grocery stores and gas stations and even a grid shutdown. Did you know that? Get on conservative reporting platforms and PREPARE. We have very little time left and that is all I will say!  If you do not know of Godly reporters, journalists and end-time  pastors, contact me here or email me.I highly recommend you Pastor Augusto’s end-times podcasts: The Appearance.com and Appearance.net.
May God. El Saddai have mercy on  the United States. … and know that if enough of us sincerely repent, fast and pray, the collateral damage will be lessened.
   One more thing, (in case you were unaware),   are we militantly-prayerfully opposing the abortion of new-borns,  trans gender mutilation of our children and child-sex-trafficking? Holy Spirit please untether us from our phones and scrolling all day for the latest  vain nonsense and Facebook-Instagram posts, in Jesus name I pray.

Joy in the journey.  I'd always hoped that the road would gently unwind before me as i struggled to ascend to higher heights, while being pushed backwards, by the  continual and daunting symptoms of my many ailments. Just last week, as I was uploading my original songs and past gigs, to this website, i remembered  the anguish and  exhaustion   of supporting myself by delivering telephone books during the  day and  most evenings, I would be performing at the Oakland House, a private  event or a local tavern. My love for composing on the guitar and collaborating on original music with  John DeGrazio and Kyle Hicks saved me from suicidal  thoughts. God always made a way for me to  get fund to produce and record my songs in the studio.  I'll never forget  crying out  to God as I pushed a hand truck loaded with heavy telephone books, wondering why I wasn't touring with my band and respected.   The staggering fatigue from the  Lyme symptoms and  my carbon monoxide poisoning episode made me feel inferior and cursed,  The constant eking out a living wore down my spirits often and i wondered what my destiny was. 

      Angst, disappointment and regret, weighed me down often during my long Dystonia battle. but as I've finally come of age this late in my life, I acquiesce to the reality of Christ being my solid foundation. God's precepts have sheltered me from the sting of hatred, unforgiveness and retaliation. I know that His peace tempers me to have a grateful heart and make the most of every opportunity, however small.  I cherish, Moses' Psalm 90:12.

       Teach us to number our days that we may know wisdom.   

      No need to keep asking  Father God..."why"

       In the past, I often felt ,my creative and musical endeavors were not allowed to bear  the fruit they deserved for whatever reason. i wanted to be successful fashion designer, best selling author, renowned poet or well-loved music icon. too often, my creations had to be postponed indefinitely because of   constant interruptions of lie-threatening illnesses.. Worse yet, fewer and fewer invitations came as people became aware that the TMJ Dystonia symptoms  were diminishing my . I noticed with great anxiety, that my vocal prowess and guitar skill was also strained.  I'd expected  that I'd  get better with age, not worse.

       And so,, I determined in my heart, I would push forward no matter how much it hurt. I could not quit because of what Christ did for me. He destined me to be a conqueror and i was to  be a role model for precious  girls and women whose lives were shattered by trauma. As I scan  the horizon of my future, I'm assured that  He will bring beauty out of the ashes.  Behold, He arose  and redeemed me!
