Every morning I read Psalms 5, 23, 91, 27, & 118. Seek dwelling in him, acknowledge his name, and Fear the Lord. Turn away from the world, time is running out!
There’s not a single person in this world that would give up their life for a stranger in the way Jesus did for all of us. Because It’s on record even outside of the Bible, it’s hard to believe a regular man would allow this type of torture for himself. That’s why he’s The Son of God, and God in the flesh.
Two years. 730 days. It’s easy to dress up and post the wins online, but the truth is, the real work happens on the days no one sees. Life is still messy, and I’m still a work in progress. But I don't walk through it alone. I serve a Creator who anchors me through every unseen battle and every hard moment. Leaving the old weight behind and choosing faith, every single day. Two years clean. #jesus #sober #alcohol #AlcoholFree
Daniel 7:25
“He will speak against the Most High and oppress his holy people and try to change the set times and the laws. The holy people will be delivered into his hands for a time, times and half a time.”
BREAKING: The House has passed legislation to make Daylight Saving Time permanent nationwide, ending the twice-a-year clock changes by a 308-117 vote. Backed by President Trump, the bill now heads to the Senate. If approved and signed into law, Americans would no longer have to change their clocks.
You know what shook me when I was Muslim?
The story of Hosea. God tells a prophet to marry a woman He knows will betray him.
She does. She runs to other men. She ends up enslaved, sold, used up, worthless to the world.
And God tells Hosea to go BUY HER BACK.
To pay money for his own wife who cheated on him, and love her again. Hosea 3.
I thought it was the most humiliating command in the Bible. Why would any man do that?
Then I realized I was the wife.
I gave my heart to everything but God. I chased other masters. I sold myself cheap. I made myself worthless.
And God looked at me, the betrayer, and didn’t say “you’re not worth it.”
He said, “Name the price. I’m buying her back.”
That’s the Gospel. God doesn’t wait for the unfaithful to come crawling back clean.
He pays to redeem them while they’re still dirty.
Islam told me to make myself worthy of God.
Hosea showed me a God who pays to redeem the unworthy.
The cross was Him naming the price.
Praise the Lord.
You know what shook me when I was Muslim?
Psalm 22. A song written by King David a thousand years before Jesus.
It opens: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” The exact words Jesus cried from the cross.
But it keeps going, and it describes a scene David never lived:
“They have pierced my hands and my feet.”
“All my bones are out of joint.”
“I can count all my bones — people stare and gloat over me.”
“They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing.”
David was never crucified. Crucifixion didn’t even exist in David’s time. It wouldn’t be invented for centuries.
So how does a man describe death by piercing hands and feet, and soldiers gambling for his clothes, a thousand years before it happened to Jesus exactly as written?
You know what really rattled me?
This was a photograph taken a thousand years early.
Pierced hands and feet. Gambling for the garments. Mocking crowds. Bones out of joint from hanging.
Every detail, at the foot of the cross, fulfilled.
Islam told me to doubt the crucifixion.
David described it in HD ten centuries before it happened.
You can’t erase an event that was prophesied in that much detail.
@OTMGUARD@itsKARY_ And for the record, Kobe’s rules were a set of work principles. Posting someone’s discipline and work ethic is not the same as worship or exaltation. One is inspiration. The other is idolatry. The distinction matters and it is clear you missed it.
Nobody said admiration is wrong. Acts 14:11-15 is the moment the crowd at Lystra tried to worship Paul and Barnabas and Paul tore his clothes and said we also are men of like passions with you. He shut it down immediately. There is a difference between admiration and the kind of devotion that belongs to God alone. That distinction is not religion being shoved anywhere. That is just the text.
