Dear sisters and brothers in Christ Jesus, part of a growing repentance remnant globally,
The attached logo of the Birmingham Games is going to bring the wrath of God down on this planet.
It is the devil claiming to be "I Am."
My friend, Deb, did the following homework: It is from Hinduism:

Additionally, in our most recent NDR article about hypnotism and the Roman Catholic Church, in discussing the phrase " Ite, Missa Est, " there is another meaning; the words of the service are declaring that they are "it." This is dangerously close to saying that they have the power, like the Great I Am, to bring something into being just by saying it.
It is the equivalent of saying: "Because I say so, so be it."
Only God has this power to say: "Exist"---
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
When Moses asks Him for a Name from the burning bush He simply answers: “I Am Who I Am.” In another translated version it more purely says: “I Exist.” The great I AM is the quintessential Essence of Life. When you get a complete revelation on just WHO runs the Universe…God is not mocked. We take off our shoes; it is holy ground. Don't even begin to think you can begin to play God.
Those in Birmingham, England, putting on the Commonwealth Games, bringing a thirty foot high Bull statue of Baal into the stadium to be worshiped, sent that image out over TV and the internet to over 1 billion people. They thereby served the devil, declaring that he is God.
That is what brings on the wrath of God.
The devil is going to begin his "raging" now, because he clearly knows without a doubt that his time is short; his goal will be to cause as much death and destruction as possible.
Maybe the logo for the Birmingham Games started out as a joke; maybe someone in a pub in Birmingham thinks this logo says " I am Birmingham." I'm told instead of dismantling this 30 foot tall bull, it's stlll standing in that city.
NO! This satanic display carries real consequences. It's a reminder to remove anything in your mind, heart, and house which gives any opening, any token, of the enemy; any sign of rebellion toward our Living God.
You and I are called to stand up to satan, and join in the defeat of satan, obeying these basic Truths:
" Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, ' The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously?' But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: 'God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.' Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. " ~ James 4:4b-8.
And this Truth: " And they overcame him [satan] by the Blood of the Lamb, and the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death." ~ Revelation 12:11.
Repentance is central in the process of submitting to God. Take even five minutes today, alone with the Holy Spirit, to ask Him if there is anything in your mind and heart that is not fully submitted to the Living God. As He reveals that to you, you have the opportunity to confess it, and receive His forgiveness: " If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." ~ 1 John 1:9
And then you can take the next step and sincerely repent, turning 180 degrees towards Him, choosing to follow the Lord's Path of Purity through His Eternal Word, "perfecting holiness in the fear of God." ~ 2 Corinthians 7:1.
The devil will lose ! And you will be filled with the JOY of the Lord, and wonderfully FREE, that much more filled with His Holy Spirit as His vessel !
We have to cleanse as His Bride; He is the soon-coming Bridegroom.
******************
Do you see God's Gift of repentance as vital in our personal lives? In our nations? If so, you're part of the repentance remnant, purifying to be ready for the soon-coming Bridegroom. Encouraging repentance is NDR's sole purpose for ministry.
No church or foundation supports us; only saints like you. In addition to the various repentance initiatives we support in various nations, we have two volunteers who receive no salary and need regular support.
Whatever the amount, seed into this move of God, in the same Way as did those believers in Macedonia, 2 Corinthians 8: 1-4: " Moreover, brethren, we make known to you the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia: that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their JOY and their deep poverty abounded in the riches of their liberality. For I bear witness that according to their ability, yes, and beyond their ability, they were freely willing, IMPLORING us with much urgency that we would receive the gift and the fellowship of the ministering to the saints."
God bless you,
Pastor Jeff Daly
National Day of Repentance
In addition to joining us on Africa Kneels every Thursday, please join us Wednesdays at 2 PM Eastern time USA, for our weekly one hour repentance zoom call. It's a time for a spiritual cleanse. You'll have time IN PRIVATE with the Holy Spirit to remove a particular old sin stronghold, and --like Nehemiah and Daniel--also confess your sin and the sin of your nation for disregarding God's Word. The sharing that follows such private confession of our sins is a sweet witness of the healing and JOY that ALWAYS follows repentance!
