God says: I will never fail you nor forsake you


Joan Boney  ... apostle/prophet

In the last days, wickedness will get stronger.

Jesus says:  And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.  But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. Matthew 24:12-13



*****

I Corinthians 10:13    There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

Choose God's way.

Choose the way the Holy Spirit brings to your mind.

Saved by the Word of God In April, 2018, a man calling himself "pastor" contacted me.  He seemed to love the word of God, but he didn't know much Bible and wanted to learn, so he said.

He was always off a little ... like a radio station that has not hit the exact frequency.

We tried to help him with the Word of God.  When he said he didn't have a computer, Pam Padgett sent him one of her old laptops which she wasn't using, so he could get the teachings on our blog.

Then he wrote asking us if we could send him a camera.

"A camera?  Why?" I asked.

You do not transmit the Word of God through photographs.  (Photographs are fleshly not spiritual.)  We told him we would not send a camera.

Then his next ploy was to try to get us to support him for he said he had no job, no income, and the church group who owned the house where he and family had lived for 30 years had "thrown them out", telling him to leave within the week.

He asked us to send him money for food and to get housing.

I said we would not do that.  He should get a job and support himself and his family.  I had told him a couple of weeks before that to get a job and get his life in order.  I told him his life was out of order and cited Genesis 3 where God ordained that men would work.  He is 48 years old.  He has a son but didn't mention a wife.

Genesis 3:17-19     And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;

In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

I knew nothing good could happen in his life until he got his personal life in order with the commandments of the Word of God.

We shared the scripture where Paul said if a man will not work neither shall he eat.

I told him to get a job immediately, any honest work.  One job frequently leads to another.

(I believe this man sprinkled his emails with lies, to draw us to himself and to make us feel sorry for him.  I believe he was after money in an extremely deceptive and effective way..)

We sent him no money because of the instruction given by Paul.

When he realized we were not sending him money, he said I "misunderstood" him and he would not share with us again.

I was grieved.

Then Pam Padgett reminded me of a word I had given her a few days earlier about this man.  He had communicated with her in a way that made her feel "burdened".

I said to her the following:

"Don't worry about this guy.

If he isn't of God he will drift away when he sees he isn't going to get anything from you."


At the time I said this, I felt an extremely strong anointing over what I had said.  Those words had a type of power which was not like most words we speak.

(It turned out this was a prophetic word from the Holy Spirit and it is exactly what this man did.)

We were taken in by him for a few weeks because he seemed to want to study the Word of God.  We tried in every way to help him with the word.  But I believe all he really wanted from us was our money.

Because we believed the Word of God spoken by Paul, it caused us to take that action with him in an attempt to get him to work and to support his family.

When he saw he would get no money from us he left us.

The burden he tried to put on us was very great.  He told us he and family were going to have to sleep on a park bench because they were being turned out of their house which was owned by their church group.  He said the church group put him out because he spoke the truth that no man should call himself "Reverend."

The hook he had in us was great.

But the word of scripture showing us what to do was even greater, so we were freed when we did that word.

II Thessalonians 3:10    For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.


This man made one very big error.  He didn't understand that God was listening to that which he was telling us and God will judge him by that which he said to us.

I even prayed this:  "God, YOU know what is truth in this matter.  Please judge this man by truth."

I remember Paul praying:  The Lord reward him according to his works.  (concerning evil doer)

Hebrews 10:30-31     For we know HIM that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto ME, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge His people.

It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.


*****

If you should fall into a trap where someone is presenting an untrue case, know this.  God has a way of escape for you.  Follow that word God gives you.

Do not be bitter.  Just commit the transgressor to God, in faith, knowing God will judge him and the matter.

Free yourself this way.
