Seekers, the almighty God created man, and all things in this world. He is the master of this universe. If we serve the Lord and walk before him to be obedient to his word his blessing will be upon his people to prosper and be in health in all things to be the head and not the tail that mean victorious over all of your enemies is the blessing of obedience to his people.
Let us look at what separates the people from God. The Lord has a plan for man to follow and that is the true word of God. He is our father and we are his creation, man. Noah's day the wickedness of man that every imagination of their thought of his heart was only evil. Continually, Noah preached to the people what God said he was going to do because of their wickedness, the people would not believe Noah and the flood came and only eight souls were saved. Look at Sodom and Gomorrah, God said their sin is very grievous, and there was not ten righteous in the city. Their sin was perversion. The Lord rained brimstone and fire to destroy the people because of their sin. There was only three souls saved. The city of Nineveh, God said yet forty days shall that Nineveh shall be overthrown because of sin . Nineveh believed Jonah and the word of God and they repented of their sin and God spared the city.
King David reigned over Israel for forty years. seven years reigned he in Hebron, and thirty and three years reigned he in Jerusalem. David fought the Philistines, and all of their enemy and the Lord gave victory over all of them and under David's reign. Israel prospered because David walked with the Lord with all of his heart.
1st Kings 1-9: God's covenant with Solomon was if thy will walk before me, as David thy father walked, integrity of heart and in uprightness to do according to all that I have commanded thee and wilt keep my statutes and my judgements.
Look what Solomon did, he loved many strange women. The daughters of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites and they worshipped Idols. God said ye shall not go into them neither shall they come into you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their God's. Solomon sinned.
Rehoboam, David's son made two calves of Gold and put one in Bethel, and one in Dan and the people went and worshipped them and sinned. From Genesis to the book of Revelation is the history of mans disobedience to God's word. This brings curses on the people because they have no knowledge of the word of God. Look at today, the nations that are Idol worshippers. There is famine, pestilence, drought, no crops, fires that destroy the land. Storms, earthquakes, floods and still the people will not turn to God and repent of their sins. Their idols see not, speak not, hear not and cannot answer their prayers.
Let us look at America to see what is happening here. Fires out west destroying homes, drought, no rain, no crops, cattle no grass, storms. This is the beginning of the sorrows for the USA because we have left God's word. Let us look at what Paul said about the end.
This message is for you that want the truth to overcome this world of the lies of the devil.

verse 10: and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish: because they received not the love of the truth, that they should believe a lie:
verse 12: That they all might be damned who believe not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
