What is a CCD? In this writing, the anagram stands for counterfeits, copies, and dopplegangers. It’s a fancy way of saying fake, not real. This is a real issue in a lot of areas that I think we’ve been conditioned to accept.

In the area of food, there is the name brand ( which is supposed to be of better quality), and then there is the store brands.

What I mean by that is, as an example, name brand clothing and accessories has its counterfeits. Those who can afford to pay extra will spend the money to buy the real deal, whereas the less fortunate, financially,  have no problem rocking the name brand knock offs.

I remember watching a clip of an interview that Ellen had with KimKWest, and she assumed a chain that Kim’s son wore was fake. Kim quickly corrected her. “It ain’t fake.”

The father of fake is none other than the devil.

The devil wants to get us out of the presence of God. The reason why is because in God’s presence we have peace, joy, protection, provision, etc. To get us out of God’s presence is death for us.

So he promotes this lie that something good is being withheld from us or trying to be taken from us in the area of particular holidays that dishonor God to cause us to cling to what angers God. He gets us in areas of morality, sexual impurity and more. He uses the same lie he told to Eve. Genesis 3:1-3.

He can’t take Gods presence from us, so he seduces us to make choices that would move us out of God’s presence.

So, what makes 1 Samuel chapter 4 so important is that Gods presence was gone, and the people didn’t know it.

They didn’t know it because they were focusing on the representation of God’s presence, and as long as they had that representation they thought they had the presence when they didn’t.

In chapter 3, Gods presence had already left because of the gross disrespect that was being tolerated in the priesthood, with the sons of Eli. So, God stopped speaking to them.

A man of God was sent to warn, but the warnings were not listened to.

That’s what my book was about. Iron sharpens iron. It broke down what the sin was. Why God was angry. What should have been done. And the fact that this applies not just to the church, but to the government too.

But…
1 Samuel 4 gives us more information and warning for today – for right now, and I’m sharing this so that many can check this out and get ready.

Remember I said that the presence of God had already left.

Well the people didn’t recognize this then because they still had the representation with them.

They still had the ark of the covenant.

Let me repeat myself
The ark of the covenant was a representation of the presence of God. It was not THE presence.

The presence would appear in the form of a cloud that would come down and either cover or fill the place.

Note: As long as no man was in the temple, the cloud would fill the temple. But if man was in the temple, the cloud would cover the temple.

So, when Gods presence left, they didn’t recognize it. Even when they lost in battle, they didn’t recognize that this was because Gods presence had left.

What battles are you losing? Have you checked for the presence of God so that you can have the victory?

So, they went back to get the ark of the covenant and take it with them into battle to protect them, but the ark got captured.

It wasn’t until the ark was gone that the people said the presence was gone. But listen,

Listen…
Man cannot capture Gods presence to steal it.

It was already gone.

And what the people took into battle was a wooden box.

Are you catching this?

Who was guarding the ark of the covenant was the very two who was the reason why Gods presence had left… Hophni and Phineas

God had already judged them two to be put to death.

And because Eli didn’t sit them two down for their disrespect of God, Eli got judged too. And sentenced to death.

God told his people to get out, and not touch the unclean thing.

Listen

Just recently God gave me a dream that bothered me. I mean really bothered me. And I was clear when I prayed about it as to what I was supposed to do.

I shared that with my family.

And we moved quickly to disconnect ourselves.

God said “Get out of her my people if you do not want to share with her in her sins.” (See Revelation 18:4

In my dream I was told to not assume I had divorce papers, but to make sure I saw the papers. I knew that ties needed to be clearly broken.

Now Listen…

We are all clear that with corona a shift happened.

People tried to hold onto their church services in the building not even realizing what was taking place.

They held to the building like in Eli’s day they held to the ark of the covenant.

The warnings have been going forth to repent. But instead we are being told stop judging .

That’s just what Phinehas and Hophni said when their dad warned them.

They didn’t repent.

Jesus said that our day would be like it was in Noah’s day that people would eat drink marry and be given in marriage and they would take no note until the flood was up on them.

That is happening now.

The people didn’t know that the presence of God was gone…

until it was too late .

Ref. Matthew 24:39

By the time they realized it, it was already too late.

Listen.

Repent now

Repent NOW

REPENT NOW

Let me make this easy for you

What everyone needs to repent of is rebellion.

Rebellion is the core the root of everything

Lord Jesus, please
It’s not Fathers desire that anyone lose their life but that we all attain to repentance.

Please let my words spoken be heard.

Lord Jesus please
I lift all of my family and friends and everyone connected to me on this platform, and their friends and family up to you.

Father in the name of Jesus I ask only that they are all given ears to hear. I am well aware that this does not affect their choice. The choice is their own. But Father Your word says that faith comes by hearing and hearing by your word so I ask in the name of Jesus that ears are opened to hear.

I thank you Father for helping me. Father in the name of Jesus I ask that you direct my aim so that I can reach hearts as you directed the aim of David to hit goliath in the head with his slingshot.

In the name of Jesus I pray.

Lord God Almighty may Your will be done.
