It is very difficult for me to focus on or wait for the financial markets because I do not trust them, even with the smallest investment. I would rather invest everything in the LORD, in whom I trust and for whom I have no difficulty waiting, knowing His blessings and returns are always on time and abundant.
Psalms 27:14 KJV Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.
Those who fall short of God's promise of rest in Him through Christ do so because their belief is an empty shell void of God’s gift of faith. Such a belief does not endure to the end and will ultimately apostatize, as Jesus illustrated in the parable of the sower.
Hebrews 4:1 KJV Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
Hebrews 4:2 KJV For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
If you have believed according to God’s gift of faith, you will enter His rest. His faith, which enables true belief, saves us and sustains us. Our belief alone lacks the power to prevent apostasy and is largely ineffective throughout its short lived and superficial duration.
Hebrews 4:3 KJV For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
The Promised Land was never meant to be the place of final rest; it was always intended to point to Jesus Christ, our ultimate rest.
Hebrews 4:8 KJV For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
Hebrews 4:11 KJV Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Our labor in Christ and for Christ is a fruit of God's gift of faith. His faith works; our ‘faith’ is self-serving and apostatizes.
Hebrews 4:11 KJV Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
If the Word of God does not discern your daily thoughts and intentions, you do not possess God's gift of faith. Your belief is merely a superficial faith, akin to that of the devils.
Hebrews 4:12 KJV For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
You are either naked without Christ or clothed in Him. There is no in between.
Hebrews 4:13 KJV Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
A true profession of faith is rooted in Jesus Christ, the Son of God; otherwise, it is rooted in hell. Our profession in Him was never meant to be easy, often accompanied by temptations, afflictions, and tribulations. However, our offense and defense are unlimited through Him.
Hebrews 4:14 KJV Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
Hebrews 4:15 KJV For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Hebrews 4:16 KJV Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
God’s faith is a gift that never apostizes.
Romans 11:29 KJV For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

The conditional land covenant between God and Israel was fulfilled a very long time ago. Antichrist Israel broke the deal and failed on their part. The current antichrist occupiers are squatters pending judgment, lest they repent. Soon, the unpaid rent will be due.
Joshua 21:43 KJV And the LORD gave unto Israel all the land which he sware to give unto their fathers; and they possessed it, and dwelt therein.
Again, God owes national Israel nothing. All came to pass.
Joshua 21:45 KJV There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass.
You will either live under the protection of the sword of the LORD in Christ or die by the sword of the LORD without Him. And just because judgment is still for the moment, it is always on its way.
Jeremiah 47:6 KJV O thou sword of the LORD, how long will it be ere thou be quiet? put up thyself into thy scabbard, rest, and be still.
Father, thank You for Your divine protection. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
