"Death of Whitney Houston"

English: American singer Whitney Houston perfo...

Image via Wikipedia

Psalm 37:37 I am so sorry that Whitney got mixed up in worldly music and never had the opportunity to get out of that lifestyle before her death, no one knows how she died but the vultures in Hollywood who surrounded her, will surely make money from her music now that she is gone. They did the same thing when Michael died. It’s funny how after death they seem to promote the famous more than they ever had before. God blesses you with a voice, it is to be used for him and for good. It hurts me so that neither she nor Michael J could get out of that life before death. I pray that God will show children the world over, the truth of so-called fame, fortune and what it leads to in the end. I once wanted to be famous, but now I thank god he kept me from it. Hollywood is a fierce place! I cried the day when I heard they had the little girl, Willow Smith in their clutches. While everyone else rejoiced and gyrated to the song Whip My Hair I was saddened, because though Hollywood makes the newest video or latest CD or newest movie, look like all glamor, happiness and fame. I now realize the end for each person who is tied to Hollywood, if they do not discover the truth and get out in time. As I think about this, it brings to my mind the scripture where the serpent spoke to Eve…Genesis 3:4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die.  As a young child Whitney Houston used her singing voice to glorify God. Her voice and gift was given by the God of Israel, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and was to be used for his glory. But the enemy enticed her with the lure of Hollywood fortune and fame, and so in her heart she thought, as well as many other famous people in Hollywood had before her, “What can it hurt, I won’t die” But Whitney did die, from the time she came to Hollywood, until the time of her death. We have all watched her die a slow and painful death, as the effects of Satan raping and pilfering her soul, began to show in Whitney’s’ face and lifestyle.br /br /How many others have fallen from grace only to be devoured by the enemy of our souls. The list of famous people who died senseless, tragic deaths is too long to even begin naming. We all know who they are. You see, the enemy of our souls knows if we follow him, what will surely happen. Becoming famous is actually the beginning of a slow, and painful death, unless one comes to the Light of Christ and gets out of the lair of Satan in time. I am so sorry that my sister Whitney didn’t heed the call of some of her friends Bebe and Cece Winans, when they tried to come and pull her out of that lifestyle. I’m certain that others will enjoy the royalty money from Whitney’s death. That is what Hollywood, The Music and Sports industries are really all about. Brothers and sisters please wake up and stop being their work horses. I love you and you are all in my prayers Today I was convicted in my spirit to pray more, lots more for the so-called famous, because I realize they are human beings just like us. For they know not what they do, and they certainly do not know what the enemy intends to do, once they become famous enough. Many of those who make it to be Hollywood famous, are unfortunate in that they have parents like Whitney had, who introduce them to Hollywood or The Serpent at very young ages. Yes I mourn for Whitney just as I did Michael. But their deaths as well as the deaths of many others are sad on so many levels for so many more reasons. I charge anyone who would dispute what I’ve written here to go back in your mind, just replay history a bit, go back and remember some of the most famous people in Hollywood. Remember their lives, but more importantly remember their deaths. The bible says this. Psalm 37:37 Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright, for the end of that man is peace. Neither Whitney’s nor any of the others in Hollywood’s lives can be considered lives of peace. I pray for one thing, that we will all learn from the mistakes of those like Whitney, and especially learn from the mistakes of her parents who introduced her to the lifestyle that she became accustomed to. Let her death be a lesson to us all. May it open our eyes, and allow us to see that just like the serpent beguiled Eve, Hollywood is there to beguile us all. What Hollywood has to offer is a mirage and in the end… well we all know how it ends. There are countless stories of Hollywood fame, do your research on the famous. I’m sure you will find that time and again their end is no good, that no one can go to Hollywood, become famous and leave the same as when they came. Hollywood is a haven for some very nasty habits that are very hard to break. Take “Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew“Celebrity Rehab” as an example, this is what the life of the truly famous is really like.

There are arguments and debates all over the internet. Even a href=”http://twitter.com/”Twitter/a is trending a href=”http://twitter.com/#%21/ChaunyWrites”#iftheworldendsonsaturday/a. Everywhere you look on the internet the subject of the end of the world is being talked about. br /br /As I noticed this, the first thing that popped into my mind was. If the world did end tomorrow, are we all ready? Have we loved those who needed our love as well as we possibly could have? Is there someone we’ve left out? The world has grown so cold lately. People are a lot more busy simply because not only do most people work 2 jobs but now people are working 3 jobs. br /br /Because of the climate that exist in the world, the changing economy, and the behavior of others towards us. It can become pretty easy to settle in and become so used to this behavior that we begin mimicking the same bad habits. Being busy all the time can give us the excuse to not call mom or dad to say hello. Being busy can give us the excuse to work all the time and neglect our children, husbands, wives, friends, and neighbors. br /br /People need each other. We can’t just stare at laptops, cell phones, TV’s and other electronic equipment all day long and expect that we will continue to feel human, or feel anything for that matter. I am guilty of this, we are all guilty of just letting real life get so far away from us that we don’t even notice that someone, our loved one or friend needs our help. The world will not be ending tomorrow, but I do believe that we are very short on time. It is nearer than we think.br /br /Yet I still believe it wrong to try to pinpoint the day or hour. No man knows this. But we do know that according to the word we are closer to the end than when we first believed. A lot closer. So the reason for my scripture. Repent For the Kingdom Of Heaven truly is At hand! Repent of your neglect of the people who live on this earth. Repent of your cold heart, your selfishness. This message may not be for everyone, but someone out there knows whom he/she is. br /br /If you care where you spend eternity, Repent because no one knows when the world will end. But even more importantly. None of us knows the day of our own death. If you’ve been putting off making a turn around in your life. Think about this. Tomorrow isn’t promised to any of us. Any one of us, could die right in our sleep, and if we had planned to get around to taking care of the issue of where our soul will spend eternity, we would have missed that opportunity. Tomorrow isn’t promised to you. Live each day as if it’s your last. Love while you can, and live your life in such a way that you will be remembered for your good deeds.br /br /Your job, house, car may seem very important, but in the end, it will not matter at all. I promise you this is the truth. How sad it will be for those who do not realized this until the end is staring them in the face.br /br /Update! Yes today is May 21st and we are still here. I find it pretty bad that people are making fun of the fact that there truly is an end of the world. The a href=”http://content.usatoday.com/communities/Religion/post/2011/05/may-21-end-of-the-world-doomsday-harold-camping/1″Apocalypse/a is real, weather anyone wants to believe it or not. My best advice is to read the a class=”zem_slink” href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Revelation” rel=”wikipedia” title=”Book of Revelation”book of Revelations/a for yourself, but be warned, you could misinterpret what is written in the bible just as this group of people who thought they could pinpoint the end did.br /br /I also do not believe that the world will end a href=”http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11iCmzGnOI8″December 21 2012/a. The reason is because if you would simply read the bible it says that no one knows the day or hour of the end. The bible does tell us what we can do, we can pray and prepare ourselves to know when have reached the season of the end. I’m here to tell you that season is now! Look repent and be thankful that the end hasn’t come yet. That means you’ve been given one more day to make things right. Use it!br /br /I pray that this word blesses you! br /br /~ChaunyWritesbr /br /object height=”390″ width=”480″param name=”movie” value=”http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/6fGq279mE3Y?fs=1amp;hl=en_US”/paramparam name=”allowFullScreen” value=”true”/paramparam name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always”/paramembed src=”http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/v/6fGq279mE3Y?fs=1amp;hl=en_US” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” width=”480″ height=”390″ allowscriptaccess=”always” allowfullscreen=”true”/embed/objectbr /br /div class=”zemanta-related”h6 class=”zemanta-related-title” style=”font-size: 1em; margin: 1em 0pt 0pt;”Related articles/h6ul class=”zemanta-article-ul”li class=”zemanta-article-ul-li”a href=”http://www.chaunywrites.com/2011/04/tornadoes-and-wars-and-suicides-oh-my.html”Tornado’s, And Wars, And Suicides Oh My!/a (chaunywrites.com)/lili class=”zemanta-article-ul-li”a href=”http://compassiondave.wordpress.com/2011/03/07/repentance/”Repentance/a (compassiondave.wordpress.com)/lili class=”zemanta-article-ul-li”a href=”http://lnger.wordpress.com/2011/05/18/may-11-2011-prediction-end-of-the-world-what-does-the-the-bible-say-about-this/”May 11, 2011 Prediction – End of the World ? – What Does the the Bible Say About This ?/a (lnger.wordpress.com)/li/ulbr //divdiv class=”zemanta-pixie” style=”height: 15px; margin-top: 10px;”img alt=”" class=”zemanta-pixie-img” src=”http://img.zemanta.com/pixy.gif?x-id=62810bcf-95de-4476-81d3-5065c47d43c5″ style=”border: medium none; float: right;” //div

We are truly getting closer and closer to what the believer knows to be the final judgement. Those who know the truth, know that we are living somewhere in the a href=”http://www.watchmanscry.com/”book of Revelations/a. I know people who grew up in the word. People whose parents taught them what it meant to live righteously, and to strive daily for holiness. To be more and more like our savior the a class=”zem_slink” href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Messiah” rel=”wikipedia” title=”Messiah”Messiah/a. br /br /I am now 41 years old and it seems that some of my peers have been lured into a mirage of lies and deceit. The world has been teaching it’s own philosophy and amongst my peers there have been many takers. Don’t get me wrong, I was almost lured away by my own lust as well. But thanks be unto the Most High that for me, something just wasn’t right, it just didn’t make sense. I was not born a lesbian,br /neither was any woman I know born that way. But our society has done an excellent job of convincing others that homosexuality and lesbianism is OK.br /br /It is so sad to me though because as this scripture clearly states above. “Their wounds stink and are currupt because of their own foolishness.” Yet they know it not. The most horrifying thing that I can think of, is the fact that many will be deceived, and those who do the deceiving will go on spreadingbr /their lies. And as people have begun in these last, evil, wicked, cold days to be punished for doing things witch are unnatural. They don’t even realize that they are the ones causing their own wounds.br /br /Many are beginning to lose money, houses, their gay and lesbian spouses. Being infested with diseases, and all manner of evil has begun to come upon them. And they don’t even realize it is because they need to repent. If they would only turn from their sins, and come back to the father, as prodigal children. He could and would cleanse them and receive them.br /br /Believe me, they are no alone. The money grubbers, those who use and enslave the poor and needy, pillaging others homes and land in order to make their lives easier, knowing that in order for them to remain materially rich causes innocent families to get hurt and killed in heinous ways each day. Child traffickers, and all the Money Mongers of the World! He sees you, and your time is nigh!br /I would also like to add that I came from a family where some of those who taught me the Bible had a bottle of liquor and a cigarette in one hand, the bible in the other and curse words coming from their mouths, all at the same time. This discouraged me early one. I thought that all believers were fakes, phonies, and that I didn’t want to be like them. And thanks be unto the Most High, I am nothing like them, nor will I ever be. But I am very glad that I had the opportunity to discover my wonderful father in heaven. He is nothing like man, he does not lie, and every word that he has written, he is faithful and true to see through to the end.br /br /Man has tried to tamper with his word of course. But it did not work. Man failed in this. I know because he touched me. That’s right my a class=”zem_slink” href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_the_Father” rel=”wikipedia” title=”God the Father”heavenly father/a touched me. Not man, no preacher filled me with the Holy Spirit! My heavely father filled me with his spirit. This is something which one has to experience first hand on their own. But he is real, believe me when I tell you. I should have been dead if it were up to the devil and his minions, but my father had a plan for my life, and I’m still here because of it!br /br /Because of being filled with his spirit, I know the difference between what is truth and what is false deception being spread by the enemy. All of you who call yourselves Christians need to wake up because 90% of the churches in this country are filthy, vile, and polutted institutions, and I hate to inform you, but I must.

Teens Can Do Hard Things

It amazed me. I was simply astonished that a teen was speaking the words that my ears were hearing. I didn’t know who the young man speaking and his twin brother were at the time. I was just overjoyed to hear him saying all the right things.br /br /You see each time that my children exhibited unacceptable, out of control behaviors. Everyone around me was saying. “They are just teens, this is what happens to a class=”zem_slink” href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolescence” rel=”wikipedia” title=”Adolescence”teenagers”/a. “This is what teenagers do”. I mean even Christians that I was attending church with would say the same. “They’re just being teens”.br /br /br /But that wasn’t good enough for me, I kept feeling that there was more, there was something better for my kids, that my kids could do better if they desired to. I recalled my behavior as a kid, and compared my behavior to what I was seeing teens do all around me.br /br /I decided that everyone who was advising me was wrong. That somewhere along the way, times had changed because we as a class=”zem_slink” href=”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parent” rel=”wikipedia” title=”Parent”parents/a had gradually allowed our kids to change the basic behaviors that were expected of us as children. Simple things like respecting your elders, and children are not to interrupt adults who are speaking, and to always use manners. The very basics were long gone. And now in our society, kids don’t do chores, kids stay out all night, watch TV all night long, text all day and night, and the number one rule amongst kids… You do not like your parents. You like your friends, your parents are uncool nerds whom you and your friends do not like, and you must never be seen hanging out with them.br /br /iframe align=”left” frameborder=”0″ marginheight=”0″ marginwidth=”0″ scrolling=”no” src=”http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=youw09-20amp;o=1amp;p=8amp;l=bplamp;asins=B003S89WAKamp;fc1=000000amp;IS2=1amp;lt1=_blankamp;m=amazonamp;lc1=0000FFamp;bc1=000000amp;bg1=FFFFFFamp;f=ifr” style=”height: 245px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 5px; width: 131px;”/iframeMy brothers and sisters please. If a therapist, teacher, doctor, pastor, sister or brother in who is supposed to be a believer, or anyone is advising you to sit back, accept these extremely unholy, non-biblical behaviors such as sex, smoking, promiscuous dressing etc. Please… I urge you. Do not listen to them! They are lying and believe it or not, they are advocates of the devil. I was advised this way, and made to feel as if what I was expecting of my children was too much. That we as believers were supposed to go with what was normal for the times, instead of following the Bible.br /br /But the word of the Most High spells everything out for us all very plainly. Follow the bible when it comes to your expectations of your children. I do not mean that we should whip or spank all the time, but I myself have worked out a wonderful formula for consequences that work with my kids and so can you. I encourage you to check out these two young men, and what they are sharing. Right from the mouth of teens, I could not have put it together better. “a href=”http://www.therebelution.com/blog/2007/12/why-do-hard-things-part-one/”Do Hard Things/a” Enjoy the video below.

Chauny’s Daily Devotional May 13th 2011: We Need Your Gift

Some of us would prefer to covet or be jealous of the gifts of others. When you truly read and understand the scripture in 1 Corinthians, you will clearly see how our heavenly father designed things to work in life. There is a reason that no one is the same. Then life would not only be boring, but there would be a great many things that wouldn’t ever get done from day to day.br /br /If everyone was a singer, dancer, actor or actress, then who would do all the other jobs in this life that certainly need attending to? Every single person and their gift is vital to the survival of mankind. Not only this, but I have never been more fulfilled in my life than I am now. When I was young, I had the mindset that I wanted to be a singer. It was only because I thought that I would like to have the attention that singers were getting. As I’ve gotten older, I realized that I am not a singer per say although I can carry a tune pretty well.br /br /Yet singing isn’t what I’m best at. So I decided to do what I’m best at. I am a writer, and I do this better than most amongst my peers. Although I do have other gifts that I do very well also. But I realized at the age of about 35 that my gift of writing is what would serve mankind best. Sharing the wisdom, knowledge and understanding that I’ve gained through living my life story, is the best thing that I could ever do with my life. I am now very much fulfilled and very very happy with who I am today.br /br /This is because I’ve found that thing, that only I can do, and no one can dare imitate. I can pick up a pen, and give you a perspective of this life, and it’s lessons that can only come from viewing it through my eyes. Yes, I’ve cornered the market on being me, and I have nothing to ever be jealous about, nor will I ever covet anyone or anything that isn’t a part of my life again. I am and always will be the very best at being me.br /br /I pray that you will find this same fulfillment in finding out who you truly are, and being yourself, for we truly do need your gift!br /br /Be blessed, br /Chauny writes :) br /div class=”zemanta-pixie” style=”height: 15px; margin-top: 10px;”img alt=”" class=”zemanta-pixie-img” src=”http://img.zemanta.com/pixy.gif?x-id=9160bf73-e6d2-42a6-806a-7fe1c9172fea” style=”border: medium none; float: right;” //div
