Who Has Despised the Day of Small Things

Zechariah 4:10a For who hath despised the day of small things?

The tone of the verse is that it is not a good thing to think lightly of small things.  The world has a saying, “the devil is in the details”.  Being detail-oriented is a good thing to place on a resume.

The Bible is full of what would be considered “little things”, despised in the world, that made or broke a person’s future.

  • Adam and Eve and one act of disobedience led to the Fall of mankind and the curse on the world
  • Esau gave up the family blessing for a dish of stew
  • David was considered the least of his brothers, not important enough to invite to the dinner with the prophet Samuel
  • David took something small, a stone that was used to kill Goliath
  • David had a one night stand with Bathsheba that resulted in murder, a dead baby, and family trouble from that time on
  • Moses getting tired of the complaining around him; Moses ended up striking the rock instead of speaking to the rock; it cost him entering the promised land
  • A little boy had a modest lunch … five loaves and two fishes that were blessed by Jesus and used to feed a multitude
  • The widow who threw in two mites (a tiny amount of money) into the offering was commended by Jesus

In a world that focuses on the big stage, the glamor, the glitter, the branding, the big stuff, all these small events would be considered inconsequential.

But God focuses on the little things.  And if there are little details that God wants taken care of, it is important to look at them in the same manner that God does … little things can be big things in God’s eyes.

No matter how little a thing is, when the Holy Spirit leads you to do it, then it is a big thing in God’s eyes. And you don’t know where a little thing will lead.

I was recently involved in a gathering where one of the individuals was saying how the Lord had been talking to him to help a neighbor by sharpening a garden tool. This person didn’t want to bother, didn’t want to sharpen the tool, and put it off. Finally, he obeyed and did what he was led to do. That led the neighbor he helped to start bringing other neighbors by and the dynamics of it evolved into a ministry out of the garage. But it started with a small thing of sharpening a tool. It seemed very natural, “not spiritual”,  and unimportant but God knew where it would lead.

Isaiah 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.

9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

 

One of those things, and this will be a recurring theme until the election, is to vote.  A vote may seem like a small thing.  But in a world that can steal votes, it takes a landslide to bring a candidate to winning where in an honest world of voting, which currently does not exist, it might not take that kind of over-the-top effort.  But to overcome the lying and cheating, it takes all hands on deck to vote.

“… and there were added besides unto them many like words.” Jeremiah 36:32b

I have been battling to keep websites up for the last few weeks and today this site was down for no particular reason.  I had to work to get it restored and since I’m a bit tired of the battle, I’m going to push back.  As in the book of Jeremiah, I’m going to add more words to the ones already spoken.

Jeremiah 36:32 Then took Jeremiah another roll, and gave it to Baruch the scribe, the son of Neriah; who wrote therein from the mouth of Jeremiah all the words of the book which Jehoiakim king of Judah had burned in the fire: and there were added besides unto them many like words.

 

I refer you to Malachi 3:10-12. God will rebuke the devourer.  And I decree that in Jesus name.  God will rebuke you, the devourer, for my sake since I am a tither.

I think this may have been the post that caused the blog to break.  As stated, it’s been in draft form from 2021 and earlier, but was not published until now because the need for Christians to vote is dire and it is my contribution to that end.

Or someone may not have liked this post.

Here’s some more along the same lines of what has already been said.

Repost: Jon Voight Warns of Potential Civil War with Kamala Harris Presidency

I keep hearing preached that “there needs to be an awakening”. I agree but not in the sense that it is generally portrayed.  We don’t need a “woo woo” awakening.  We need something very practical.

There needs to be an awakening that this nation will turn communist and atheist if Christians don’t put away their differences of why they might not vote for Donald Trump … some might say that his words are too harsh or he’s not strong enough on abortion or … whatever.  Anyone can find something to complain about, but the option is communism and atheism.    We’re past socialism.  This is full on dictatorship if things don’t change.  Watch the video above. Awaken to the fact that God gave dominion of this earth to mankind and we must take the dominion of the law and order of the Constitution over communism.  That is our job, not the job of Jesus Christ.  Don’t wait for Jesus to do your job.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN LOST IN THE LAST FEW HUNDRED YEARS. While men slept, while they were unaware of what they were doing, a nation that was formed by men, Founding Fathers, who understood that in the interest of religious freedom and other freedoms they needed to break with a tyrannical government, that nation they formed has slowly slipped into tyranny. And we are almost at the point of complete communism.

JFK said, “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.”

I can at least warn what I am seeing and certainly I am not the only one, there are others. But there are sites that tend to make people feel warm, fuzzy, cozy, and comfortable in their ignorance of what is happening in the nation.

That is the awakening you need.

You cannot, repeat, you cannot divorce religious or spiritual convictions from your civic duties. You cannot say, due to faith in God, that Jesus will take care of things and therefore I refuse to vote or I don’t care about voting or my pastor doesn’t talk about voting so it is not important.  Your pastor fears being shut down.  You can say “religious freedom” all you want, but that’s why they don’t talk politics, at least most of them.   I can say that since I’m not a pastor. They can’t.

God gave man dominion. That dominion is now in two realms, at least since Jesus came.  Prior to the coming of Jesus Christ, man lived totally in the Fall prior to Christ. Since the coming of Jesus and his work on the cross, as many as received him gave he them power to become the sons of God. They have authority in the name of Jesus and through the Blood of Jesus.

But that does not renege the natural responsibilities, civic responsibilities.  One of those is the necessity of voting. If you say, God alone in heaven will do it, you are running contrary to the fact that God gave man dominion. The Founding Fathers of the United States understood that God gave man dominion so they created a Constitutional Republic for the outworking of that dominion in governmental life.  That was their job … creating a Constitutional Republic government.

If through slothfulness and ignorance and greed and whatever else we let that slip, “then the last state of that man (or nation) is worst than the first.”

The aforementioned linked blog posts have been an attempt to awaken Christians to move out of living in a  “spiritual” “religious” (only) bubble that makes them think they are immune from civic responsibility.

Awaken or lose your freedom.

Pray against the red dragon of communism that is seeking to engulf the world. That’s our job to do, not the job of Jesus Christ. If we don’t do our job, God can’t work.

Revelation 12:1 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.

16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

 

This is from 42 years ago.

Francis Schaeffer | A Christian Manifesto | Coral Ridge 1982

He mentions “spirituality”. That has turned into focusing on prophecy and ignoring our civic responsibilities on earth. And don’t the CIA, Deep State, communists and satanists like it when prophecy takes Christians out of reality? The Freemasons, CIA, satanists and communists might even be on some of the boards of your churches or within your church hierarchy.

Until Jesus is here, we have the responsibility of mirroring the kingdom of heaven as closely as possible within all the venues of mankind and not hope for Jesus to simply solve what we have been given responsibility to do.   We must be the salt and light and that requires action outside of simply the four walls of churches.

This is the awakening that is needed.

There are those who will say that God will take care of you.  Yes, I believe in the promises of God.  But that does not mean that I have a free pass to not vote.  You can’t throw away civic responsibility in the name of either prophecy, eschatology, spirituality, or religion.  Call it what you want, man still has a responsibility to “have dominion”.    That has not gone away.

That has to be made clear.  It is not clear enough.

If people think they can “play around” with their vote in order to indicate their “displeasure” with President Donald J. Trump, they may be sorely unhappy with the result.
