    I am not isolating myself. God has isolated me for this season. Even according to the world’s standards I shouldn’t be isolated. I don’t know, but I sure have had to stay close to Him the last few years. I am always reminded of the 7000 Elijah didn’t even know existed. I pray often for community. It is just not for me right not. If Jesus comes soon I will have a world full of believers around for an eternity.

      I just went into a season of isolation this week, and ironically, this was Pastor Farags' message. I honestly feel led to be in this season of isolation. I believe the Word says there is a time for isolation if I'm not mistaken. Didn't Jesus Christ himself isolate sometimes?

    Whenever I get the opportunity to share Jesus, with people I do so. But they are thinking I'm crazy, they say, "You take that JESUS thing too SERIOUSLY." Well, I don't know, but Christ took me pretty SERIOUSLY when He DIED for me on the cross🛐

    *_Totally needed this !!! I live alone (am a widow) in North Carolina. I was out of harm's way but devastated nevertheless because of dear friends who were. Honestly It is a crippling loneliness that plagues me everyday. Not being able to drive due to medical reasons exacerbates loneliness due to more isolation. And I do apologize for complaining ... just trying to illustrate why I need to hear message. May God, blessed be He, bless us all ! Maranatha beloved !!!_*

      Hello sister. I struggle with understanding how people of faith in Jesus Christ suffer from anxiety and depression. I am not judging, I'm literally struggling with understanding this. I prayed when I read your comment and what came to my heart was: unconfessed sins. If this is you, confess them and let God do His work in your anxiety and depression. I will continue to pray for you. Hold fast, persevere and you have been given the power by JESUS CHRIST to rebuke the devil and his crippling thoughts on you. In the name of Jesus, proclaim it outloud!!

      I'm in my late 50s, I had everything your saying all my life. I went up for pastor to pray over me, anointing me at times with oil. Plus reading the word, speaking faith not doubt out loud, worshipping God, praying and seeking God on my face ... over the last year (thru 2 difficult situations that occured) it allbrought me to my end, but God, God removed it one by one. Praying for you, Father God please remove these things from your life. In Jesus name.

      Sometimes, it’s okay to not be okay. 🥹Listen to Pastor JD from 54 to 56 minute mark. Recently, life has dealt MANY believers and non-believers some really tragic situations. I am a believer and have a personal relationship with Jesus and for that I am grateful. But, 2 weeks ago today my family member (along with several co-workers) had to sit in a room with attorneys and read their account of a workplace violence (yes, it’s the worst kind without me saying which “kind”) threat. This person is a non-believer, estranged from family, older, never married, no children. My family member who apparently was one “named” is full of joy and tried to befriend and reach this person. Even had him in his home weekly for board games with friends and co-workers!
      I was also filled with anxiety and worry during all of this. I am human. I love my family (4 members work at this place). Thankfully, even Pastor JD has admitted to worry in several of his sermons. We aren’t proud of it, but unexpected things in life happen “to us”. Eph 6:12 is the scripture God reminded me of (actually verses 10-20). Unfortunately, we live in a fallen world, and this situation has brought me to my knees many times. There is no winner whether this man loses his job or not.
      Just know, you are not alone. Another family member struggles with what you describe daily. She is a beautiful 27 year old woman of God and was adopted by a wonderful family who loves her as their very own! But, adoption does have consequences to those children who are given up - no matter how much they are loved and have a personal relationship with God. Feelings of rejection and thoughts of not being good enough live inside her head daily. I will sit with her and just listen - any time - day or night. I love her strength and perseverance on the good days. And, I love her and hold her on the days when she struggles with being alive and feeling forgotten (all of her friends are married with children) while she waits for her Hosea (she desires a true man of God). For seven years, I couldn’t have children. But God! I am the parent God entrusted to raise her and I am thankful for that gift every single day. God knew her needs and so my daughter sought a Christian counselor. Guess what my daughter discovered after a few weeks? Her therapist is *also adopted*!! 🙌🏼 How perfect is that?! My daughter now has someone older, married, and has children who completely empathizes, supports, and encourages her! God is directing her path even when she can’t see! 🥹🙌🏼 I love when we get to see Him working on this side of eternity!!
      I share all of this because I understand. I have no idea what is causing your anxiety or depression. So many things happen *to us* even back in some of our childhoods that are just hard and awful. Cry out to Jesus, because He is our Redeemer. He is the only One who knows beginning from end. He can redeem whatever is going on with you, too. I assume you are also a woman as I see the name “Lisa” in your name. I am here if you need to talk.
      Just know - I am praying for you today my dear sister in Christ.

    Pastor Jack Hibbs did a study on the locust in chapter 1 of Joel. Chewing locust are palmer worms/grasshoppers. Swarming locusts are flying bugs
    Crawling locusts are canker worms and consuming locusts are caterpillars.
    These struck Israel in 1915. Then in chapter 2:25..God restores Israel from the locusts
    Also, these 4 locusts are the 4 stages of a life cycle of a grasshopper

    13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
    14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
    15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming👈(Parousia)of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
    16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
    17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
    18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

    2 Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
    3 For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

Beware of pride, it comes in many forms. Next time, ask the Holy Spirit, Who Is our Guide in all truth, what He wants you to hear, ask for discernment which is not a superficial thing.
