False Christian teachings, trends….
I recently uploaded a video by Pastor Matthew Everhard on The Valley of Vision.
I have owned a copy for a decade or so and I began reading again from it this morning. I have come to understand most of this first prayer in the past 16 years during my Christian walk; however, I do not yet have such experiential understanding. I wanted to share it because the thoughts are so biblical
This review is being posted because the Valley Of Vision is an important Christian book for helping one improve his prayer life and for thinking about the many things that need considered in the Christian walk. Pastor Matt spent 6 minutes discussing the value of the Valley Of Vision to a believer; he read one prayer.

Pastor Kenneth Steward from Glasgow RP Church of Scotland, preached on Amos 7:12 and 13. Sermon points are below the following scriptures …God sent Amos from Judah to prophesy against Israel; Amos went to Bethel, the false religious center of the northern kingdom …Israel had a NEW way of worshipping the one true God; Jeroboam had instituted worship of golden calves in Bethel
In these last days, we are eye-witnesses to God’s sovereign control over everything that is taking place. He is allowing wicked men to employ their devious schemes to fulfill prophecy. God’s prophetic word tells us there will be a global government that will control the population, a global economy that will control commerce, and a global religion that will force the worship of a false Christ (Rev. 13 & 17). As these events begin to unfold, this blessed generation of God’s people can be encouraged as we keep looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus (Titus 2:13). The King of kings will defeat evil and set up His everlasting kingdom where justice and righteousness are the foundation of His throne (Psalm 89:14).
And so Jericho March is about people coming and praying in their own way, in diverse ways. Judeo-Christians coming together and expressing their plea to God for truth to come out, because we know this is a battle not just on a temporal level. But this is a spiritual battle, because we’re not just battling with flesh and blood, but spiritual forces too.
Isaiah 59:14 Our courts oppose the righteous, and justice is nowhere to be found. Truth stumbles in the streets, and honesty has been outlawed.
