WHAT CHRISTIANS CAN EXPECT FROM THE WORLD

Posted on by

Swimming royalty Stephanie Rice is being hammered over a caption stating she resigned from her job after hearing from God. On Instagram, the former Australian Olympian made a clear argument about how God directed the decision. Critics weren’t interested and chose to flood her post with mockery instead. This testimony by Rice demonstrates that God is real and He answers our prayers. She reveals that acknowledging and obeying God is the only way to live a truly successful life not only now but for eternity.

Haters Gonna Hate

One user ironically accused Rice of being “tone deaf.” That person then added, “To just quit a high-paying job because ‘God told me so’ is so arrogant. You quit your job because you could.” Another wrote, “This is so silly. Read the Bible because it sounds like you have been deceived.”

Facebook’s Christian-hating trolls were worse. Someone commented, “It’s not God talking to you. It’s called Schizophrenia.” In another example, someone left an essay-length comment, lecturing Rice about privilege and being a public figure. The person told Rice to choose her words more wisely because they could encourage people to be reckless. At least two people wrote “oh, dear,” while others took Rice to task for allegedly making God her business partner. The pile-on included: “clearly lost the plot”, “you’re making it up. You need mental help”, “cooked”, “such crap”, and “Freak”.

Legacy media were just as glib. They appeared to ditch due diligence by skipping Rice’s 6 October video explaining how God had directed her to resign. The Daily Mail, Nine, and News.com.au ignored that reel. They ran the criticisms and the Instagram carousel image Rice had posted on 13 October. Titled “A Career Change,” her offending post, in part, read, “I was offered to become CEO, my dream position… but God asked me to resign. I obeyed.” Of the three, The Daily Mail was the most dishonestly jarring. Their headline read: “Fears for Stephanie Rice as her followers think she has been brainwashed after moving to Dubai and finding God: ‘Poor girl’.”

Clear Reasoning

Ignored by The Daily Mail, Rice said in her two-part 6 October Instagram video explanation, “So how do I know that it was God who asked me to resign from my job and not the voice in my head?” “1. He spoke through a story I’d already lived. 2. He confirmed it again while journaling. 3. He gave me a vision which I have held onto in this waiting season.” Rice then recalled the story, stating, “Well, back in February before I resigned, I was on a prayer walk. God reminded me of a key decision I made when I was fourteen. “I don’t think about this often, at all. So I know it was God, for starters.” She said, “I was training with this specific swimming coach at the time that I never really gelled with. When I started with him as a thirteen-year-old, I was ranked sixth in Australia.” Despite improvements and six gold medals at age 14, Rice recalled that she knew deep down she needed a new coach in order to go further. Even then, she said that people thought she was crazy.

As Rice explained, “I just knew that if I wanted to achieve my goal, I had to make this change.” She moved to the new coach and, under his leadership, broke records, earned an Order of Australia medal and became a celebrated three-time gold-winning Olympic swimmer. “My life,” she said, “changed forever. I tell you that story because it was such a confirmation for me that even though this decision won’t make sense to many people, the only way to get me to my ultimate goal was to resign from my job. “I’m 100% confident that I heard God correctly, and I know this is the start of an amazing testimony.”

Biblical Wisdom

Rice told Instagram followers she knew many were in a difficult season of waiting. She encouraged them to remember the song, “Look at what the Lord can do.” On Friday, Rice acknowledged the criticisms, saying that people don’t get it. She then responded with class by referencing James. With her NLT Study Bible open, Rice said, “I’m reading James 1 today, and it’s talking all about wisdom. The reason I thought I’d share this is because so many people have seen that God asked me to resign from my job earlier this year.” “There are a lot of people that have been commenting on my posts like ‘that’s stupid,’ and I’m like, you don’t get it. “In James it says, ‘If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you.’ It is like a declaration. He will answer that prayer, and I love that because it goes on in the commentary to explain that God’s wisdom goes beyond common sense.” “Whether you can see it now or not, in time you can look back and say, ‘Thank you, Jesus. I’m so glad you made the call because I wouldn’t have come this way.’” Rice then declared, “I love this about the Bible; I was so encouraged. I flip the page, and I’m reading the rest of James 1, and it says, ‘God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterwards, they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.’”

The widely criticised Instagram post was part of her announcing that she had created a new account using her married name. Rice wrote, “Feels like the perfect time to start a fresh account, in my new name, and with a new commitment to sharing the journey God is taking me on. “I pray that my story would give you hope that God has the power to turn lives around, to restore what’s been broken and bless you above what you’ve asked, thought or even imagined.” “Probably part crazy to be walking away from 140,000 people,” she added, “but honestly I’d rather start again knowing the people joining now want to be a part of the story God’s writing, not the one that’s already been written, even if that’s just a small amount.”

END TIME CHURCH THAT FACES THE WRATH OF GOD

Posted on by

God shows us with the seven churches and the seven seals what unfolds in the last seven years prior to Jesus return to rescue His nation Israel and to initiate His Millennial Kingdom, the final 1000 years before God destroys the Cosmos and creates a new Heaven and new Earth where only the righteous dwell (Revelation 21 & 22). Make sure you go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net to prepare to rule and reign with Jesus during His Millennial reign.

“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man.” Revelation 21:1-3

I believe that Biblical prophecy shows us that the seven churches and the seven seals reveal what is unfolding in the churches and in the world in each of the last seven years. The sixth church and the sixth seal reveal that the rapture takes place at the end of the sixth year which means that the wrath of God poured out on an unrepentant Earth lasts for one year (in fact one year and 10 days as it takes place the year before a Jubilee year).

To the sixth church, the church of Philadelphia God says, “Because you have kept my word about patient endurance, I will keep you from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell on the earth.” Rev. 3:10

Moreover, it is at the sixth seal we see the celestial signs that appear before the great day of the Lord and God says, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?” Rev. 6:16

It is then that the wrath of God begins to pour out on an unrepentant world with the terrible trumpet and bowl judgements.

“The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, and these were thrown upon the earth. And a third of the earth was burned up, and a third of the trees were burned up, and all green grass was burned up.“ Rev. 8:7

There is a seventh church, the church of Laodicea that is left on the Earth to face the wrath of God. What does God say to it? “I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth. For you say, ‘I’m rich; I have become wealthy and need nothing,’ and you don’t realise that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked.“ Rev. 3:15-16

Jesus’ words to the church in Laodicea are severe but they are also spoken to people he deeply loves.

“As many as I love, I rebuke and discipline,” he tells them (Revelation 3:19). His stern warnings are not a sign that these Laodiceans were outside the Church. Quite the opposite: Hebrews 12:5–6 affirms that while the Lord’s discipline is hard to hear, he disciplines “the one he loves and punishes every son he receives.” These believers belong to him, and that is precisely why he will not leave them as they are. Hence, He also says to them, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’” Rev. 3:20-22

Many belonging to the Laodicean church will be powerful witnesses during the time God pours out His wrath upon the Earth. God will protect them from His wrath with a seal on their forehead, but many will be martyrs at the hands of the Antichrist.

“Then from the smoke came locusts on the earth, and they were given power like the power of scorpions of the earth. They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green plant or any tree, but only those people who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. They were allowed to torment them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings someone. And in those days people will seek death and will not find it. They will long to die, but death will flee from them.” Rev. 9:3-6

WHO IS YESHUA BEN DAVID CHAIRMAN OF GAN EDEN POLITICAL MOVEMENT?

Posted on by

This video explores the background behind Yeshua Ben David, leader of the Gan Eden political movement, and the religious language surrounding his rise in Israel. From the Temple and Sanhedrin to interfaith unity and “Garden of Eden” imagery, this story raises serious biblical questions. Are we simply watching unusual politics, or something Christians were warned to watch for?

A party called “Gan Eden” wants to turn Israel into paradise. Its chairman Yeshua Ben David dreams of priestly service in the Temple, sees the Knesset as the Sanhedrin, and is running as a candidate for the office of Prime Minister. Even by Israeli electoral standards, the latest candidacy is extraordinary: a party called “Gan Eden” — literally “Garden of Eden,” or Paradise or Heaven in English — led by a man named Yeshua Ben David, meaning “Jesus, Son of David,” wants to politically renew and save Israel. He dreams of priestly service in the Temple, regards the Knesset as a kind of Sanhedrin, and promises nothing less than a state that is to become a “paradise.” Welcome to the Israeli election campaign, where sometimes the canvassing is not just for seats, but for salvation…

He is a prominent political leader who founded and heads the Gan Eden Party. He is a significant focal point in the current national and spiritual discourse in Israel, through the combination of a free economic approach with a deep connection to Jewish heritage. His public efforts focus on building bridges between the various sectors and presenting a political framework of peace based on security. Over the years, he has developed a fundamental plan to address core social problems, while emphasizing governmental transparency and empowering the individual in order to reduce gaps.


Full Name: Jesus Israel Son of David, date of birth 21.05.1988 | Thursday, Sivan, 5748, City of residence: Jerusalem, Role – Chairman of the Gan Eden Party. Profession: Thinker and politician, Interests: Spiritual, political and social. Watch this space.

GOD’S PRESENCE IN YOUR LIFE

Posted on by

How much time do you spend with God? Jonathan does a good job of challenging us about the amount of time we spend with God. How can you experience His love if you don’t spend time with Him.

The Ark of the Covenant was the central, most holy, and most important object in Biblical times, but could it contain the most important revelations for our walk and lives in God. Discover the revelations of the Ark – and it can change your life. You need the presence of God. The more time you are in the presence of God the more God will open doors and you get breakthroughs into the things God is calling you to do.

Biblical end times prophecies reveal we are fast approaching the time Jesus will return to rescue His nation Israel and establish Jesus Millennial Kingdom. We have had 6000 years of Satan’s dominion over this Earth. The final 1000 years will be under Jesus dominion as He fulfils the covenant He made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob:

The covenant made by God with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is foundational to the Abrahamic Covenant, which includes several key promises:

MYRKA DELLANOS ON THE PRICE OF SPEAKING ABOUT GOD IN SECULAR MEDIA

Posted on by

Veteran Hispanic television journalist, Myrka Dellanos said she faced obstacles over decades in making her Christian convictions visible in spaces of entertainment and secular information. She said that in print magazines and entertainment coverage her references to God were systematically omitted, a situation that escalated to formal questioning by news directors.

Recalling a call to cover a national news story, she recounted the warning she received before going on the air: “The news president calls me and tells me: ‘Look, I want to know, are you going to be talking about God when you are giving this information?’ I told him: ‘Look, you can trust me, I’m a professional. But the part of my faith, first of all, people know it, and secondly, it is part of me. So that’s always going to colour what I say.‘“

The communicator stressed that resisting institutional restrictions against the message of Christ had direct consequences on her contractual stability. “Many times they told me that I could not say something and I did. It has happened to me on television, it has happened to me on the radio. Yes, it cost me my job in both of them and it doesn’t matter, because God opens the doors He wants and closes them with a purpose to go somewhere else.”

DIRECT INITIATIVES IN DIGITAL MEDIA

Faced with polarization and censorship in large corporate networks, Dellanos said a significant part of the audience has migrated to independent alternatives.

Through her YouTube platform (@myrkadellanosshow), she combines the monitoring of news of high social impact with live broadcasts dedicated to Bible reading and collective prayer. “That part, which is very simple, opening the Bible and praying, is the one that has the most views. Everything I do when I do the devotional,” she concluded, also confirming the editorial launch ofher testimonial volume, Where Are You, God? When Life Has No Meaning, scheduled to be published in November under the imprint of Editorial Shaddai. 

Dellanos announced last July that she now partners with The LIBRE Initiative, a national Hispanic advocacy organization that, according to its announcement, works to advance policy solutions that expand freedom and opportunity for Latino families. During an interview with journalist Juan Manuel Cao on his program Cao Live, Dellanos shared details about this new professional facet and the vision that motivates her collaboration with the entity. 

In March 2025, Dellanos faced severe criticism and accusations on social networks after citing, during Telemundo’s La Mesa Caliente program, a U.S. government document, issued by the Trump administration to justify tariffs on Mexico and Canada, that pointed to alleged alliances of certain Mexican politicians with drug cartels. On that occasion, she denied having issued offensive comments against the Mexican people, defended her reporting, and attributed part of the attacks to media hostility towards her conservative stance and her faith convictions, receiving public support of colleagues in the media and Hispanic evangelical organizations such as the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference (NHCLC).

As we move closer to the Biblical prophesied time of Jesus return to Earth we know that tribulation/persecution of Christians will increase but we need to be courageous and trust God like Myrka Dellanos: “Yes, it cost me my job in both of them and it doesn’t matter, because God opens the doors He wants and closes them with a purpose to go somewhere else.”

HOW AI IS REWRITING CHRISTIANITY

Posted on by

World-leading chemist and scientist Dr. James Tour joins Maybe God for a fascinating conversation about AI, Christianity, the origins of life, and what it truly means to be human. As AI becomes increasingly capable of mimicking human thought and communication, Dr. Tour raises a deeper question: What separates human beings from the machines we create? What happens when artificial intelligence begins to sound human, discusses Scripture, why we should offer prayers, and challenges the way we think about consciousness, faith, and the value of human life?

AWAKEN FRIENDSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST

Posted on by

“You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.” John 15:14-15

“The LORD would speak with Moses face to face, just as a man speaks with his friend, then Moses would return to the camp.” Exodus 33:11

Friendship with Jesus kindles the flame of the Holy Spirit. He is your counsellor, teacher, comforter and helper. He will help to strengthen your relationship with your Saviour, Jesus Christ, and get you ready to rule and reign with Him in His coming Millennial Kingdom. Go to http://www.millennialkingdom.net to get prepared.

Friendship with like minded believers will help immensely to grow closer to our Lord. A beautiful reflection on friendship is bequeathed to us by Augustine of Hippo (AD 354–430). It comes from his classic work entitled, The Confessions of St. Augustine (IV, X, 13):

“All kinds of things rejoiced my soul in their company — to talk and laugh, and to do each other kindnesses.

“To read pleasant books together. To pass from lightest jesting to talk of the deepest things and back again.

“To differ without rancour, as a man might differ with himself, and when, most rarely, dissension arose, to find our normal agreement all the sweeter for it.

“To be impatient for the return of the absent, and to welcome them with joy on their home-coming.

“These, and such-like things, proceeding from our hearts as we gave affection and received it back, and shown by face, by voice, by the eyes, and by a thousand other pleasing ways, kindled a flame which fused our very souls together, and, of many, made us one.”

Friendship is a great gift, freely given and received. It is to talk and laugh, to be kind, to be good humoured and serious at times, to agree to differ, to forgive, to be fully present even amidst absence, to be affectionate not soppy, to experience unity — not uniformity — amidst diversity. As Proverbs 17:17 tells us, “A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.”

A beautiful reflection on friendship is taken from an article by Bishop Tony Percy, Auxiliary Catholic Bishop of Sydney – Awaken Friendship with Christ.

FILM “THE MAKING OF ANGUS BUCHAN” JUST LANDED ON ANGEL: HERE’S HOW TO WATCH IT

Posted on by

Angus Buchan’s remarkable journey from farmer to evangelist is brought to life in a new documentary now streaming, revealing the faith, family and challenges behind his public ministry.

The Making of Angus Buchan has entered the streaming circuit. Angel Studios unleashed the powerful 2024 documentary about the 79-year-old South African ‘Faith Like Potatoes’ farmer-evangelist on 30 September. Although still somewhat limited in South Africa, the film is available to Angel’s Australian and New Zealand paid subscribers. Content is added or rejected by Angel’s test viewers, known as the Angel Guild, so not every film makes the cut. The significance of this wasn’t lost on the film’s creators, Downtown Entertainment (DE), either. When announcing the addition on social media, they said this was “the part that gives us chills.”

Marketing the release, DE explained, “To get greenlit on Angel, a series has to go in front of the Angel Guild, around 3,000 test viewers, mostly in the US, most of whom had never even heard of Angus Buchan before. “They watched. They voted. And 70 to 75% across the series said: yes, we want this on Angel. “That’s not us telling you this story matters. That’s thousands of strangers telling us.”

Behind the Man Millions Have Come to Know

The film is independent of Buchan’s Shalom Ministries and contains exclusive testimony about his faith, work and life. Promoting the documentary on Facebook in early 2025, DE stated, “Not many individuals have been privy to the more intimate aspects of Angus Buchan’s life. Until now.” They then described the film as “revealing and beautifully shot.” DE added that it contains never-before-seen footage of Angus’s closest friends and family. This includes his beloved wife Jill, who speaks for the first time about living with and working alongside this dynamic, challenging, and endlessly loving personality.

The Making of Angus Buchan is a three-part series subtitled “Chosen”, “Carved” and “Crowning”. Each episode runs for approximately 30 minutes. More than a memoir, the documentary is a close look at conversion, the call to ministry, and the challenges of being in the public eye. “Uncle Angus” is still working. With nearly 1.2 million followers across five major social media platforms, his daily Thought for Today devotional appears in text, Reel, audio and vlog formats. (See here, here, here and here.)
