9 "For evildoers themselves will be cut off, But those hoping in Jehovah are the ones that will possess the earth. 10 And just a little while longer, and the wicked one will be no more; And you will certainly give attention to his place, and he will not be. 11 But the meek ones themselves will possess the earth, And they will indeed find their exquisite delight in the abundance of peace."vs 22 "The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it."

(Isaiah 11:6-9) . . .And the wolf will actually reside for a while with the male lamb, and with the kid the leopard itself will lie down, and the calf and the maned young lion and the well-fed animal all together; and a mere little boy will be leader over them. 7 And the cow and the bear themselves will feed; together their young ones will lie down. And even the lion will eat straw just like the bull. 8 And the sucking child will certainly play upon the hole of the cobra; and upon the light aperture of a poisonous snake will a weaned child actually put his own hand. 9 They will not do any harm or cause any ruin in all my holy mountain; because the earth will certainly be filled with the knowledge of Jehovah as the waters are covering the very sea."

(Isaiah 65:17-66:1) . . .“For here I am creating new heavens and a new earth; and the former things will not be called to mind, neither will they come up into the heart. 18 But exult, YOU people, and be joyful forever in what I am creating. For here I am creating Jerusalem a cause for joyfulness and her people a cause for exultation. 19 And I will be joyful in Jerusalem and exult in my people; and no more will there be heard in her the sound of weeping or the sound of a plaintive cry.” 20 “No more will there come to be a suckling a few days old from that place, neither an old man that does not fulfill his days; for one will die as a mere boy, although a hundred years of age; and as for the sinner, although a hundred years of age he will have evil called down upon him. 21 And they will certainly build houses and have occupancy; and they will certainly plant vineyards and eat [their] fruitage. 22 They will not build and someone else have occupancy; they will not plant and someone else do the eating. For like the days of a tree will the days of my people be; and the work of their own hands my chosen ones will use to the full. 23 They will not toil for nothing, nor will they bring to birth for disturbance; because they are the offspring made up of the blessed ones of Jehovah, and their descendants with them. 24 And it will actually occur that before they call out I myself shall answer; while they are yet speaking, I myself shall hear. 25 “The wolf and the lamb themselves will feed as one, and the lion will eat straw just like the bull; and as for the serpent, his food will be dust. They will do no harm nor cause any ruin in all my holy mountain,” Jehovah has said. 66 This is what Jehovah has said: “The heavens are my throne, and the earth is my footstool. . . ."

With saxophones and sobbing, Mexicans mourn earthquake dead
JUCHITAN, Mexico (AP) — Slow-moving funeral processions converged on Juchitan's cemeteries from all directions on Saturday, so many that they sometimes caused temporary gridlock when they met at intersections.
A monster earthquake and a Gulf coast hurricne have combined to take at least 67 lives in Mexico, and no place suffered more than the Oaxaca state city of Juchitan, where 37 died as buildings collapsed in the magnitude 8.1 temblor.
The graveyard swelled with mourners and blaring serenades for the dead — the sounds of snare drums, saxophones and sobbing. Pallbearers carried the caskets around rubble the quake had knocked from the simple concrete crypts. Jittery amid continued aftershocks, friends and relatives of the deceased had hushed conversations in the Zapotec language as they stood under umbrellas for shade from the beating sun.
Paulo Cesar Escamilla Matus and his family held a memorial service for his mother, Reynalda Matus Martinez, in the living room of her home, where relatives quietly wept beside her body.
 
Earthquake Leaves Trail of Destruction in Mexico

The 64-year-old woman was working the night shift at a neighborhood pharmacy when the quake struck Thursday night, collapsing the building.
"All the weight of the second floor fell on top of her," said her son, who rushed to the building and found her under rubble. He and neighbors tried to dig her out, but weren't able to recover her body until the next morning when civil defense workers brought a backhoe that could lift what had trapped her.
Fearful of crime, the pharmacy kept its doors locked, and Escamilla Matus wondered if that had cost his mother the time she needed to escape.
Scenes of mourning were repeated over and over again in Juchitan, where a third of the city's homes collapsed or were uninhabitable, President Enrique Pena Nieto said late Friday in an interview with the Televisa news network. Part of the city hall collapsed.
The remains of brick walls and clay tile roofs cluttered streets as families dragged mattresses onto sidewalks to spend a second anxious night sleeping outdoors. Some were newly homeless, while others feared further aftershocks could topple their cracked adobe dwellings.
Rescuers searched for survivors with sniffer dogs and used heavy machinery at the main square to pull rubble away from city hall, where a missing police officer was believed to be inside.
The man's body was found Saturday afternoon in a collapsed passageway between city hall offices and a market, according to a municipal police officer who was guarding the site. The officer declined to give his name because he was not officially authorized to give information to reporters.
The city's civil defense coordinator, Jose Antonio Marin Lopez, said similar searches had been going on all over the area.
Teams found bodies in the rubble, but the highlight was pulling four people, including two children, alive from the completely collapsed Hotel Del Rio, where one woman died.
"The priority continues to be the people," Marin said.
Larissa Garcia Ruiz was grateful to escape with only a broken arm when her house collapsed as she and her family slept.
"I only woke up when I heard screaming," said the 24-year-old cradling her wrapped arm.
Her mother managed to push the daughters and her blind husband through the back doorway before a massive section of thick wall fell, trapping her. As Larissa tried to help rescue her mother, another piece of rubble fell, breaking her arm. Other relatives and friends finally managed to release the trapped woman.
All around them people yelled for help that night. "Nobody helped us," her sister Vicenta said. "Everybody got out as best they could."
In addition to the deaths in Juchitan, the quake killed nine other people in Oaxaca and 19 in neighboring states. Two others died in a mudslide in the Gulf coast state of Veracruz after Hurricane Katia hit late Friday.
Pena Nieto said authorities were working to re-establish supplies of water and food and provide medical attention to those who need it. He vowed the government would help rebuild.
Power was cut at least briefly to more than 1.8 million people due to the quake, and authorities closed schools in at least 11 states to check them for safety.
The Interior Department reported that 428 homes were destroyed and 1,700 were damaged just in Chiapas, the state closest to the epicenter.
Just one day later, Hurricane Katia hit land north of Tecolutla in Veracruz state, pelting the region with intense rains and maximum sustained winds of 75 mph (120) kph.
Veracruz Gov. Miguel Angel Yunes said two people died in a mudslide related to the storm, and he said some rivers had risen to near flood stage, but there were no reports of major damage.
More than 4,000 people evacuated parts of Veracruz and neighboring Puebla states ahead of the storm's arrival.
The Hurricane Center said Katia could still bring 3 to 6 inches (7.5 to 15 centimeters) of additional rain to a region with a history of deadly mudslides and flooding.
Associated Press writers Peter Orsi and Mark Stevenson in Mexico City contributed to this report.

"Find Real Success in Life"
“You will make your way successful and . . . act wisely.”—JOSHUA 1:8.
???????
Jesus said about treasures: “Stop storing up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break in and steal. Rather, store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consumes, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”—Matthew 6:19-21.
???????
How important should our possessions be to us? Jesus urges the crowd: “Stop storing up for yourselves treasures on the earth, where moth and rust consume and where thieves break in and steal.” How reasonable! Material treasures can and do perish, and our having them builds up no merit with God. Accordingly, Jesus next says: “Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven.” We can do this by putting God’s service first in life. Nobody can take away our good standing with God or its reward of everlasting life. So true are Jesus’ words: “Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”—Matthew 6:19-21.

SOME EXPRESSIONS EXPLAINED

DOES GOD REQUIRE CHRISTIANS TO PAY TITHE TODAY? ?????
Answer :NO ?
Tithing is not a Biblical requirement for Christians today.
?????
It is true that the commandment to tithe a tenth of the produce of the land was part of the Law that God gave to the 12 tribes of ancient Israel more than 3,500 years ago. (Leviticus 27:30, 32; Numbers 18:21, 24) But the Bible states categorically that the sacrificial death of Jesus, in 33 C.E., "blotted out," or "abolished," the Law and with it the "commandment to collect tithes." (Colossians 2:13, 14; Ephesians 2:13-15; Hebrews 7:5, 18)
A RELIGION THAT DOES NOT COLLECT TITHES
?????
Today, some have expressed surprise when they discover a religion where there are no tithes, no collection plates and no collections are ever taken at their meetings.
?????
The work of Jehovah's Witnesses is primarily financed through anonymous, voluntary contributions, as was true with the early Christians. (2 Cor. 8:12; 9:7)
?????
We thus follow the Bible’s direction to Christians: “Let each one do just as he has resolved in his heart, not grudgingly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.”—2 Corinthians 9:7.

The 3F's Of Life)
FACTS ?
Faith and fear are great measures to determine the future. Faith and fear are great infectious words because they spread like epidemics, but you must be careful of what you listen to and those you associate with. Many people have allowed the faithless words of others to drive them into despair by which they end up being a failure.
What is Faith? Faith is simply:
F - future 
A - actions
I - intended and expected
T - to
H - happen
While fear is:
F - fake 
E - experience 
A - appearing 
R - real 
Thus, a person with fear is known as a coward because "a coward dies ten times before their death".
Here is a true story. ?
A man started running down the street of his town screaming, "The dam has broken". Women shopping in the supermarket heard the scream and they dropped their grocery baskets and joined him; men in the barbershop and offices heard the mob and joined them; so also the police and the firemen. Soon the street was filled with people screaming, "The dam has broken!" One old man ran as fast and far as he could and then sat down on the curb for a moment and thought, "I have lived here all my life. What dam?" The truth and fact was there was no dam. There was no danger.
?
A short while later the citizens came shuffling back into town embarrassed by their collective response to fear. Some suffered from the stampede, some died, while others were fortunate.
?
Reject fear and choose faith to get a better future.
The Future is just:
F - focused
U - utility/utilized 
T - timing 
U - used in 
R - realizing 
E - expectations
--- Written by Micheal A. Adeniyi ??

Woe You  Earth and the Sea! The Devil Has Come Down Knowing He Has a Short Period of Time! 
FACT!! ?????????
7 "And war broke out in heaven: Miʹcha·el* and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled 8 but they did not prevail,* nor was a place found for them any longer in heaven. 9 So down the great dragon+ was hurled, the original serpent,+ the one called Devil+ and Satan,+ who is misleading the entire inhabited earth;+ he was hurled down to the earth,+ and his angels were hurled down with him. 10 I heard a loud voice in heaven say:
“Now have come to pass the salvation+ and the power and the Kingdom of our God+ and the authority of his Christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down, who accuses them day and night before our God!+ 11 And they conquered him+ because of the blood of the Lamb+ and because of the word of their witnessing,+ and they did not love their souls*+ even in the face of death. 12 On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea,+ because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing that he has a short period of time.”
(Revelation 12:7-12).

Joel Nelson - Dedicated Member Of The Jehovah's Witnesses
?????????
The New Testament scripture of Matthew posits that men should go into the world and make disciples of people by baptising and teaching them the ways of the Lord Christ Jesus.
?????????
One such denomination that has made the mission their own is the Jehovah Witness (JW), a group that worships in Kingdom Halls.
?????????
With copies of their famous magazines (Watch Tower and Awake) in hand, Jehovah Witnesses are on a journey to make the goodness of the Lord Christ Jesus known.
?????????
Among the group of faithful missionaries is Joel Nelson, a 23-year-old graduate of the University of the West Indies (UWI).
?????????
Discourteous Behaviour Towards Them.
But like many of his strong-willed Brothers,, Nelson is unperturbed by society's discourteous behaviour towards them.
?????????
According to him: "It was intimidating at first to see how people react to JWs. However, from a very tender age, my mother made sure that I would identify myself as one of Jehovah's Witnesses wherever I go so that, should the need arise, I would be ready to make public declarations of faith."
?????????
Community members are known to have shut doors in their faces, hide when they see them coming and others blatantly ask the witnesses to exit their yards as they want nothing to do with them.
?????????
Nelson remains heartened.
?????????
"The rejection doesn't discourage me. Instead, I'm encouraged by Jesus' word that we will be hated on account of His name," said the faithful witness.
?????????
Family and Religion wanted to find out if Nelson, as a UWI student who lived on campus and was surrounded by young people partaking in the "frivolous things of the world" got tempted and felt like giving up. But the young man was resolute.
?????????
"Never. The thought has never crossed my mind. My family makes sure they provide wholesome entertainment for me so that I am not enticed by what the other young people are doing," he said.
?????????
Though he remembers times that were hard and encounters which were unkind, Nelson shares his remedy that kept him going.
?????????
"The most difficult experience that I have had is preaching in territories where people are very hostile. Some have even released dogs on us," he revealed adding that in times like those, he thinks of Daniel's experience in the lion's den and just prays to Jehovah.
?????????
Nelson, whose anchor still holds after weathering the storms of university told Family and Religion that: "The best thing about being a JW is coming to know and have a relationship with Jehovah God."
