2 Timothy chapter 3…There will be terrible times in the last days.

holy-bible-14354271

 

As the time changes , as the seasons move on and the years pass…people will say these are that these are the  last days and JESUS will return soon. But people have been saying this since Jesus left the first time centuries ago. Those of us who seek after JESUS and want to be with Him for all of eternity , want to be with Him and to see GOD face to face and be in eternal peace forever.

The return of our savior…..those of us who have accepted JESUS as our savior and the key to getting into heaven await joyfully for Him. These are terrible times yes, but even JESUS does not know when he will return to take the righteous home with Him.

Reading the Bible gives me peace and comfort. And anyone who loves GOD knows what this kind of comfort is truly. There are some who will pretend to, but when you have the love of GOD in you know who is linked into what you feel.

When those of you who are reading this who seek to witness to encourage others to follow the Lord…do so lovingly., I do pray you will speak JEsus to be her savior.

In reading 2 Timothy chapter 3

2 Timothy 3      New International Version (NIV)

3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.

6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7 always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth. 8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9 But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.

A Final Charge to Timothy

10 You, however, know all about my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, 11 persecutions, sufferings—what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch, Iconium and Lystra, the persecutions I endured. Yet the Lord rescued me from all of them. 12 In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, 13 while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, 15 and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God[a] may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.

There is hope for all mankind who WANT it. GOD is not going to force us to love HIM. Just as you would not force anyone to love you, you know all well in good it would not be sincere and you would be lying to yourself if you think you were able to do so.

Trust in GOD, read His word, study the words and how He tells us the ways of a true happy and righteous life that will give you total peace with Him.

I have to impress upon you all who do read my writings to you , every person I meet and see I wonder if I will meet up with them in heaven when GOD says it is time. I do not want anyone to end up where the evil one will sent for all of eternity long. If you think you have sinned and GOD will not forgive you, you need to turn to GOD, learn to know who JESUS is and why GOD set Him to earth!

We all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of GOD. ALL of us….not one was or is like JESUS. We all will be judged by what we do. So to find this peace , you will not have with your friends that love the world and the ways of the world that do NOT love GOD and the people who do.

Once you leave that circle of friends , it will be hard because they will tempt you to return to their circle and way of life you were in. See they are still under the cloak of confusion of the world as it states in 2nd Timothy 3:1-5 what I copied for you above in this post.

Yes these days are getting closer to the time of JESUS’s return. Get ready for Him. Be apart of the JESUS family and have unconditional love and peace for all eternity with Him in the house of GOD. GOD is good, and ALL of the time GOD is good! Praise GOD! 🙂

Peace be with you all, and may GOD bless and guide you in all your ways! 🙂

 

Spiritual warfare is real.

Hello everyone.

There is the continuing battle of good versus evil in this fallen world. The spiritual battle is very real. There are people who are disciples of evil walking around. That those of us believets can feel before you see them coming. It is the negative energy thst evil project’s out.

When we before we start our day, we 1st need to talk to our beloved FATHER GOD in prayer by having a loving conversation with HIM. Know this.Those who do evil can not sleep until their evil deeds are done. Or plans of evil layed out for the victim of their choice.

Whenever you feel a heaviness about you pray, for this is the beginning of a new attack. Ask me how I know. The past few months there has been a heaviness on me that was something I knew I had to pray over.

Knowing that evil cannot overcome good, prayer was my defense of the attack. Prayer AND Fasting is what I did before GOD. My prayers were answered. That heavy feeling was like if you had that silver duct tape stuck across your shoulders and then it was yanked off along with a very weight! It was relief. Glory and praise be to GOD.

The Bible is clear about prayer and staying connected to GOD, keeping in prayer too. Not just when you feel like you need HIM to fix something ASAP.

Our beloved FATHER GOD is not a tool we keep in our pocket. And only to use when convenient. And when one does that they wonder why their prayer goes unanswered. Well, that’s why.

Pray honestly and sincerely at all times for all of your prayers. Remember our beloved FATHER GOD knows your heart and knows if you are sincere.

Peace and blessings ❤️

Podcast Episode: Faith, Prayer, And Daily Living

Pip: If you’ve ever watched a sunflower track the sun across the sky and thought, “same,” then JJ Maslins Art and Designs has been writing directly to you.

Mara: This episode covers faith, salvation, and what it looks like to actually live those convictions — plus prayer, healing, how we treat each other, and a few personal reflections that ground it all.

Pip: Let’s start with the faith and salvation territory, which turns out to be the whole foundation.

Faith, Salvation, And The Choices That Shape Eternity

Mara: The central question running through these posts is urgent and personal: what does it actually mean to choose God, and what hangs on that choice?

Pip: The post “Jesus coming to take HIS people home” frames the stakes simply and warmly, and the line that opens it lands like a conversation starter: “When ever our beloved FATHER GOD allows JESUS to return to take HIS children home would be a wonderful relief for all of the believers.”

Mara: What that means in practice is that the return of Jesus isn’t treated as abstract theology — it’s described as relief, something believers are genuinely waiting for.

Pip: And “Listen to GOD” extends that logic into daily life. If God is Creator and knows all, then not listening isn’t just a spiritual problem — it has practical fallout.

Mara: The post puts it plainly: “when we don’t listen we will trip up into nonsense we didn’t have the wisdom to see and understand.” The Bible post makes the same point through scripture, recommending readers pray before opening it so they receive “the correct understanding” and are “led to GOD.”

Pip: “Choosing the path to being GOD’S Heaven and not satans hell” is the longest and most direct treatment of this — it walks through what fence-sitting on faith actually costs, and why people resist conviction even when they feel it.

Mara: “Accepting the light of JESUS” and “Reaching out to GOD” both press on what life looks like without that acceptance — and both describe the same remedy: sincere repentance and reaching toward God’s hand.

Pip: “Pray for hurt people” adds the pastoral layer — that hurt people hurt people, and the healing chain starts with prayer and forgiveness, not willpower.

Mara: “Signs You Have A Reprobate Mind And How To Change” and the Father’s Day post “To the one and only true FATHER” round out the segment — one as a call to repentance, the other as a direct, personal expression of love for God.

Pip: Heavy territory — and the next posts ask what we do with it on an ordinary Tuesday.

Prayer, Healing, And Making Space For Yourself

Mara: The post “Healing” opens the question: what happens when physical, mental, or faith struggles become a distraction from the good things God is offering?

Pip: The answer isn’t a program — it’s a relationship. And “Self care, listening to GOD and prayer” makes that concrete.

Mara: The post describes being pulled in every direction until burnout arrives, and then doing something specific: “spending time alone with GOD, JESUS and the Holy Spirit as well. The 4 of us. Talking out aloud and finding peace.”

Pip: Four people in a quiet room, one of them omniscient — still sounds like the most productive meeting of the week.

Mara: The upshot is that prayer here isn’t passive. It’s followed by listening, then refocusing — and the burden, as the post says, gets left with God.

Pip: Which sets up the question of what we owe the people around us.

Kindness, Service, And What Faith Looks Like In Action

Mara: “Evil, and those who love to do it” frames the tension: hateful acts done for no reason carry consequences, and God, the post says, will tend to this.

Pip: And then the very next post pivots to the opposite end of the spectrum.

Mara: “@ThreeForChange” spotlights a father and his two sons who clean houses and neighborhoods for free — hard jobs, no advertisers, people left in tears of joy when they’re done. The detail that stands out is simple: “They help all people, all colors and ages without a second thought.”

Pip: Faith in action, no footnotes required. From service to something a little more personal — what we notice, what we grow, what we’d rather skip.

Sunflowers, Santa, And The Places You’d Rather Not Go

Mara: “Following the sun” opens with a garden conversation and turns it into something bigger: sunflowers track the sun from sunrise to sunset, and the post draws the parallel directly — “We follow the son of GOD’S light, no matter where he will lead us.”

Pip: When the sunflower’s life ends, its head bows toward the last sunset. The post notes we’ll do the same — which is either beautiful or the most quietly devastating gardening metaphor you’ll encounter this week.

Mara: “Santa” takes a sharper tone — it’s a pointed reflection on what gets centered during Christmas and what gets displaced, arguing that the cultural focus on a gift-giving figure distracts from the celebration of salvation.

Pip: And “I have a list of places” brings it back to earth, literally — a preference for 75 degrees, enough warmth to grow food, cool enough to be outside with family. Practical, grounded, entirely reasonable.

Mara: Taken together, the everyday observations and the theological ones point the same direction.


Pip: Whether it’s a sunflower, a Father’s Day letter, or a family cleaning strangers’ homes for free — the throughline is the same: orientation matters, and so does the choice of what you face toward.

Mara: Next time, more from GODs Team. Stay encouraged.

Matthew 6:16-18. Seek to get closer to GOD through prayer and fasting.

Hello everyone,

I seek to get closer to GOD each day. I know when I am on the right path through HIM and the situations that are around me that try to test my faith. They are distractions that could happen like a glass that falls to the floor that someone drops, and you turn around to see what was that. Just that quick you turn away from what you were and should be doing.

There are times when you feel the urged by our loving and compassionate FATHER GOD to do something. And I tell you that you cannot miss that feeling when it happens. It can be loud and clear but in soft tones. The more you study the word the more you get closer to GOD. And the more the enemy does not like it.

I tell you those distractions can come from the people you love and they are unaware of what is happening. But if they get distracted, and need your help, then you both are distracted too. Next is to get back on track and to focus as soon as possible to hear what our beloved GOD is trying to tell you while you were distracted.

The enemy of GOD is perpetually being annoying to all humans. And those who don’t want anything to do with GOD, are the ones who are used aa the disciples for the enemy. When you are saved, and have accepted JESUS as your LORD and savior, you stand out like a bright light. You will have people who will even have their back turned away from you while talking to someone else then turn around suddenly, and give you a snarled look.

Praying to our GOD is comforting. Peaceful. Joyful. Loving. Like a good earthly dad that when you go running and crying to him for comfort when you have been hurt. Your dad will see what was wrong and aim to fix it for his child.

When I have Bible study with a friend, we both told of our distractions we were going through before we were going to meet each other. The enemy tried to stop us from being with each other to give our FATHER GOD praise and worship. She was going through something that had her think to call me and cancel. But did not and so was I too.

We both wanted to study a topic that would enable us to read into the word even more. We agreed on fasting.

Matthew 6:16-18 KJV

16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;

18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly.

There is a clean feeling and a better insight and communication when fasting. It will allow you to feel spiritually, mentally and physically better too. We need all of that as we live in this fallen world. We all need to be able to do and say what is right when we are talking to the people of this world be it the ones who are saved or not. This fasting will enable us to be better disciples for JESUS.

When you do fast, stay in prayer. Keep reading the word of GOD. This type of Fasting is something that only should be done to increase your faith and to be closer to GOD, praying for healing and guidance. not for losing weight.

Peace and blessings.

Putting GOD 1st in all things.

Matthew 6:33

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you

Hello everyone.

I do love the one and only true living GOD. I depend on HIM to be with me at all times, I know I need to communicate with HIM at all tomes too. This is a learning process that I choose to do. Praying and trusting in GOD 100% is hard. For this fallen world is full of distractions of all kinds coming from all levels. We mankind cannot do this alone, we need JESUS.

One can never stop learning. The enemy of GOD is perpetually trying to harm you and I. With the purpose to keep our thoughts off of GOD with his tactics. But when you are a GODLY stubborn person who loves GOD you will catch yourself in a situation that you will need to turn to the FATHER for help.

I have been going through a season of different kinds of nonsense that was thrown at me since 2024. Those events have brought me even closer to GOD. When a situation hits you off guard, you are distracted. But only for a short while until you realize what is going on. Most of the traps set for a Christians are from other people. People who may not even know who GOD is. Who may not be saved by the blood of Jesus at all.

Yet there are some people who are true Christians but are not equally yoked with you and are easy to be influenced by the temptations thrown at them by the enemy. See, that old man satan will do all he can think of to try to keep us from GOD, JESUS and the Holy Spirit, Distracting us in ways that will keep us connected to our beloved FATHER GOD and HIS Son JESUS.

We are all being watched by those who love sin and evil. They do not love those who love GOD who is righteous and hates sin. It doesn’t matter if the evil forces do not love us when we follow and love GOD. GOD has power over all things at all levels and can do exactly what HE wants at all times.

Reading the word of GOD, the Bible is very comforting to read. For when you trust in GOD you have answers to prayers, guidance and understanding. You will read the book of Psalms and will see the things that King David had gone through when he was hated by Saul. You will read about the faith that Daniel had in the lions den, you will read about the evil woman Jezabel who troubled the prophet Eijah and the horrible consequences she faced because of it.

Whatever things that happened to the good people in the bible by the hands of the wicked, the in the end suffered because of it. GOD does watch over those who do truly lover HIM. GOD is so fair about it as well too. He has given people warnings that they will ignore in the Bible too. The parting of the Red Sea is another example of how GOD will save us from our enemies and the consequences of what will happen to those who mess with GODS people. The sea covered them and they all drowned chasing after GODS people.

Our beloved FATHER GOD should always be put first in all we do so we can hear what he is leading us from, or to. Showing us what and who to avoid at all times by giving us spiritual discernment and understanding. And we all need that for that is how we can avoid the traps set by the evil one.

Stay in prayer. Talk to GOD. Never stop the communication even in thought as though you are talking to a person sitting right next to you.

Because HE is. Put GOD 1st in all things and trust HIM always.

Peace and blessings!

Matthew 7:22-23

Praise and GLORY be to GOD all mighty now and for all of eternity long.

Hello everyone,

I do hope all of you are well and have given your life to JESUS as of right now! For our lives are not our own to take for granted ever. In this fallen world we need the protection from the most high GOD now and for all of eternity long. The evil one is seeking to take as many souls as he can to hell right along with HIM.

There are people in this world who do not know or love our beloved FATHER GOD or have accepted HIS son JESUS as savior. They think totally differently from the those who talk and pray to our beloved FATHER GOD daily, and all through the day. Some may not be mean people, they just do not know GOD. Walking about as though they are content knowing they are good and nice to everyone.

They may have stress to deal with like everyone else does. But they might feel that when they die , they just die. That there is no hell as the consequence of not having a relationship with the one and only true living perfect, on time, loving GOD. But this is not so.

No JESUS, no Heaven.

If one does not accept JESUS as LORD and the savior of their soul , HE will not allow you into Heaven. Even though you were nice to every human you met and having a relationship with them, you did not do the same for our beloved JESUS.

So why would HE allow you into HIS Heaven to be with GOD the FATHER and HIM for all eternity? Would you allow a person who is totally unknown to you to walk into your nice quiet home and stir up evil or just to do whatever they want? Ignore you on top of that too? No, you would not.

Matthew 7:21-23 ESV

I Never Knew You

21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 

22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 

23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

Know JESUS. If you do not know HIM now ask HIM to come into your life right now. For we do not know when JESUS will return. Only GOD the FATHER knows when it is time.

You do not want to end up in hell to suffer for all of eternity long.

Peace and blessings to you!

Drummer for the Lord.

Hello all,

I do not know who this beautiful woman is that is playing the drums. But she is doing this in a church setting. And it is for the worship of GOD almighty.

I have taken up drumming for the same reason even though I still want to play bass as well. I do not have any pictures or posts that I would consider posting to show me playing drums right now. Because there is no need. I am doing this because I love GOD and want HIM to get ALL of the glory. So when I am at the level where GOD will tell me, you too can give me the honor by posting as well too.

Peace and blessings!

Following the sun.

Hello everyone,

I want to shared with you a conversation I had with a coworker the other day. We were talking about our gardens and what we were growing and how they were coming along.

My favorite flower, are sunflowers. These plants are awesome. They are like some of us people who are called true Christians.

We follow the son of GOD’S light, no matter where he will lead us. Looking up to JESUS, the one and only son of the one and only FATHER GOD.

Whatever direction the sun will go, these beautiful plants follow the sun’s light. From sunrise to sunset. The bigger varieties of sunflowers like the mammoth will produce huge heads. And will grow over 6ft tall! It is so awesome to see these plants move the way that they do!

They are faithful to the sun, and they depend on it’s light.

We mankind should and need to be faithful and follow JESUS, and accept JESUS as our beloved savior. For what our beloved JESUS had gone through as a man here on this fallen world to save our souls is priceless.

No one else was qualified to make the sacrifice that our beloved JESUS had done. For we all are sinners. JESUS was pure and sinless!

The next time you see sunflowers, remember JESUS and what price was paid to save mankind from the sins we have done.

When our life is done we will bow down before our JESUS. The sunflower when its done its head is bowed down after following the last sunset in its life.

We will do the same, we just have to choose now which path in life we need to walk on so we will meet our beloved JESUS and be allowed into Heaven to be with our beloved FATHER GOD for all of eternity 🙏🏾

Peace and blessings ❤️

Jesus coming to take HIS people home.

Who would you like to talk to soon?

When ever our beloved FATHER GOD allows JESUS to return to take HIS children home would be a wonderful relief for all of the believers!

@ThreeForChange

Hello everyone,

I happened to have come across a family a man and his 2 sons who help clean houses and neighborhoods for free!

The jobs that they do are not easy tasks either. They do the jobs and once they are done some of the people are left in tears of joy.

They are on YouTube. I am impressed so that i needed to share. There’s others who help like this too. But this is a man with his sons doing this. I like hearing that these men are believers as well too.

When faith in GOD is mentioned i pay attention to see what they say and do.

They do take donations to keep this going. They help all people, all colors and ages without a second thought.

Yes there are others that help too, but I don’t think they have any backers that they advertise their products or use tools or products from advertisers.

Watch them when you have the time and see what they do.

Peace and blessings ❤️

I have a list of places.

What place in the world do you never want to visit? Why?

I have this thing about very cold weather or very hot. I needs to be somewhere in between.

I have watched life below zero. I can’t relate to that type of living. Not enough of a true summer in that type of environment. There is just enough of what is called summer to allow ice to melt enough to fish and stock up for the winter.

Too hot is not good for anyone either. The heat will cook everything till done like bacon if not careful. The bills for keeping cool is just as bad for keeping warm when living on the grid.

Also, the water situation may not be good in the hotter climates. Water is needed to survive.

I would prefer to live in a healthy climate and surroundings of 75 degrees. Just hot enough to grow foods i want to eat. And cool enough to want to be outside enjoying the beautiful weather with my family and friends 🧡

Peace and blessings ❤️
