Be With Me: 7 Minutes of Biblical Wonder

Near the end of the tribulation, a Satan-sent beast arises.  He might be the political leader of a final world empire that is opposed to Christ's reign.  People marvel and follow and worship him. (Opps. Classic mistake: worshipping the created rather than the Creator .) Believers are conquered by him in the sense that they are killed by him. Believers conquer HIM by "the blood of the Lam...

June 5th,1944 Eisenhower walked amidst the 101st Airborne knowing that a battle was coming.  He knew some would die, but ultimate victory was coming.  In fact his words were, "Full victory. Nothing else." The paratroopers knew they were not doing this ALONE. It is an honor to be the enemy of Satan.  It means you are on the right team.  Listen 7 minutes to a great battle to come for the p...

Listen 7 minutes today to find out what happens to ANGELS who have decided to be on the wrong team.  Listen to a war in heaven.  Good vs. Evil.  This is important to know.  Don't get thi...

Today we are introduced to the OG (Original Gangster) Dragon. He's doing what dragons do in threatening and seeking to devour. We are also introduced to the OG Dragon SLAYER who is the child born out of Israel: Jesus.  He's gonna rule so strongly, it will be like an iron rod fighting against a clay pot.  It will be a no-contest victory. Join me for 7 minutes for the start of this great b...

A day is coming when: Christ will reign supremely Christ will judge righteously Christ will reward graciously T hat day is not today, but wouldn't you like to hear about it?  Welcome to Revelation chapter 11.  It is as if God is saying, "I cannot wait to tell you how this ends! Yes, there are some woes ahead, but  I WIN!" This is exactly the reason to read this book.  And listen to...

Apparently, God " falls off His throne " and bad things happen to good people.  But, that is only if you don't read all the way to the end of the story.  Revelation is a lot about reading to the end. The good guys get killed and everything looks bad. It appears that evil has won . BUT, the good Lord then breathes the breath of life back into them and they hear a LOUD voice from HEAV...

What you consume will consume you. Being a child of God is to eat the diet of God's own choosing. God tells you to EAT THE BIBLE . I am not recommending you really eat your Bible. I am TOTALLY recommending you really eat your Bible. And if we could really see the best of this podcast, which is a guy trying to be invisible while proclaiming His steadfast love, we would, in 7 minute bites, EAT...

A day is coming when there will be no more "tomorrows" available to change. God sends a big angel, using his OUTDOOR VOICE to thunder this message to us. The availability of time to repent is limited. Grace is unlimited, but it is a limited time offer. God's patience toward us changes to justice toward us.  We'd best be in a HURRY to understand this, and act on it Bewithme.us

Our tombstones will spiritually say one of two things: DID Repent or DID NOT Repent.  It all boils down to that decision.  We're not particularly inclined to bend this part of our wills, so God helps us in the extreme. Let's say 1 person gave their life to HELP YOU make the right decision regarding repenting...or maybe a 100...or in today's story more than a billion .  This might se...

People in this story basically say, "I'd rather DIE than REPENT ". Even worse, "I'd rather be tortured by big locust like scorpion stingers for 5 months rather than repent." Apparently, repentance is hard.  It involves: agreeing with God about the past grieving with God about the past receiving from God about the past   His way of restoration thru Jesus the Slain Lamb...

Perhaps we might say to God: "Why didn't you TELL ME?" Revelation is God saying: "I AM telling you now in my LOUD VOICE" Welcome to the Trumpet judgements of Jesus.  In short, all these natural wonders of nature being used to make life on earth extremely difficult. There are stars crashing, fire from the sky, waters turning bitter and darkness on the earth.  Why all this t...

God is in the business of making believers.  This won't last forever, but in Revelation 8, repentance is still available.  People haven't listened to His witness in Creation, in love and in His Son.  Perhaps they will listen to FIRE. Judgement comes, but yet with an opportunity to repent. Somebody gets to be the last believer; the "thief on the cross" of that era; the Tom Brady...

This is a sweet passage today.  In it we'll hear: He who sits on the throne will  SHELTER THEM WITH HIS PRESENCE The Lamb who sits on the throne  WILL BE THEIR SHEPHERD God will  WIPE EVERY TEAR FROM THEIR EYES It is written to those who become believers in the tribulation .  God promises His wonderful intimacy, guidance and presence. It's all backed up by what He has accomplished .  Tha...

Revelation is a lot about the wrath on people that refuse God. But what about BELIEVERS of that period?   Some will come from the Jews.  Some will come from the Gentiles.  Both are SEALED.  That is, God SEES them, possesses them, marks them, identifies them and then preserves them.   There is the literal demonstration of SECURITY OF BELIEVERS here. Listen. Bewithme.us apple and google podcasts to...

Ridiculously, some people in the end times will try to  HIDE FROM GOD. It cannot be done, of course.  We can solve their problem in the FUTURE by not hiding from God NOW. We can LOOK GOD IN THE FACE now.                He'll be HOLY.  We won't be. It is kind of brutal. To look Him in the face now is to repent, believe and receive. Let's LOOK HIM in the face now, so we Won't be...

On the morning of June 6th, 1944, 6939 Allied ships appeared in the morning mist off Normandy, France. To a man, every German soldier manning the shore defenses was TOTALLY SURPRISED .  Every single one of them was astonished and amazed . They kind of knew an invasion was coming, but they thought ANOTHER DAY , and in ANOTHER PLACE . (Specifically Pas-de-Calais, 125 miles away where the English Cha...

The title is a bit of a joke, but consider with me how to be a TRUE WORSHIPPER today: To get the  accuracy  wrong would be  idolatry.  To just miss the correct object of our worship is INAPPROPRIATE To get the  assessment wrong is  heresy.   To miss the revealed characteristic of God is IGNORANT To get the  agreement wrong is  willfulness. To fail to yield our will to this God is OBSTINANT. To be...

God has all power, wealth, wisdom, might, honor, glory and blessing.  He lacks for nothing.   But, there is one thing God doesn't already possess in infinite magnitude: MY AGREEMENT; My assent that He has all these characteristics.  In a sense, I can give God ONE MORE THING that He doesn't already have: MY WORSHIP.  He doesn't yet have my little voice crying out from my corner of th...

Everybody in heaven stops what they are doing and worships because of something they see. We might do well to follow their example. They see a STANDING Jesus, ready to do business. They see a SLAIN Jesus, having done some conquering over sin and death They see a SCROLLED Jesus, having taken from the Father the plans for a sure future that the book of Revelation will unfold. They see a LION of Jesu...

Oreos do not come individually wrapped.  They come in STACKS.  They are hyper-ready to meet all your snacking needs. Similarly, Jesus comes hyper-qualified as the answer to one of the best questions is all of Scripture: "Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?" John knows it is a critical question.  Somehow it is going to involve the culmination of history as we know it. He...

What will you do with your brain and your thoughts and your will and your soul when you hear this news: This is a  cancer?   What happens next l says a lot about you.

Welcome to John's visit to heaven.  There he sees the PLACE from which all the dramatic events of Revelation happen. It starts  with a THRONE, occupied by God the Father. It is majestic, bejeweled, encircled and even the weather cooperates with thunder and lightening and rainbows. God is seated on His throne.  All is well. All He desires is coming to pass. Judgment is rightfully His. Who is H...

Behold, I stand at the door and knock. A response is required. There is no such thing as a call to Christianity that is not also a call to a local body of His church that is also responding to His call.  Believer, unbeliever, individual or body of believers, this is an invitation to you. Then, the Lord invites those who respond to His invitation to a meal.  Let this be one of your goals in life! T...

The people in Laodicea are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind and naked.  The problem is that they DON'T KNOW IT.  They think they are rich, prosperous and that they need nothing.  They MIS-ASSESS their nakedness. There is a way out of this mess.  They have available all of God's riches thru repentance.  It means to change their behavior, change their minds and to change their feelings. God...
