There is a lie that has greatly spread and many, the majority are deceived.
Being a follower of YHW is not all things and circumstances and situations happy, joyous, positivity, life, peaches and cream, happy ever after. No. YHW was persecuted, suffered, died. What makes the soul think that we that abide in Him and He in us, won’t? The voices of devils, of Satan make the soul think that. How? Because the soul’s heart (mind) is not fully surrendered to Eloheem.
“If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his Lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep your’s also. But all these things will they do unto you for my name’s sake, because they know not him that sent me. If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin. He that hateth me hateth my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.”
John 15:18-24 KJV
If you are learning that it’s all good after you come to the Lord, all the soul has to do is believe, love one another—yet, you are not learning of God (Eloheem), not learning of Eloheem’s character, not learning what His Agape is (His Love is); not learning to know Father and Son, and Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit, Spirit of Eloheem); not learning what being a living sacrifice is: The soul is living in vain. The soul is still being influenced, and ultimately controlled by devils and doesn’t even realize it—the soul is still lost.
Many are deceived and think that if no “bad” things come to a soul in YHW that they are not really His. Be not deceived.
How can we know what is true? We must know the Word—the Word must be abiding in us. We must have Life Eternal.
“These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: as thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.”
John 17:1-3 KJV
Then we will not be deceived. We will know we are truly blessed no matter what comes upon us—we rejoice. We praise the Lord. We give Him thanks no matter what.
Seek Eloheem for His Holy Spirit and read and study through His Word, through the life of His prophets, through the life of His disciples, His people having the faith of YHW; His people who were abiding in Him and His Word in them. Those who were not living in Him, and Eloheem brought it to their attention, and they repented and did no more evil against Him, but only obeyed Him loving Him.
Die daily—give up one’s own will to the will of Eloheem. Spend time in the Word, behold Eloheem, know Him—the soul who knows The Father The Son and The Holy Spirit will not be deceived. We are blessed no matter what.
“Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for their’s is the kingdom of heaven.”
Matthew 5:10 KJV
“If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.”
1 Peter 4:14 KJV
“And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.”
Acts 5:41 KJV
“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.”
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 KJV
“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

“Blessed is he that considereth the poor: The LORD will deliver him in time of trouble.”
Psalm 41:1 KJV
“Blessed are they that keep judgment, And he that doeth righteousness at all times.”
Psalm 106:3 KJV
“Blessed are the poor in spirit: for their’s is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for their’s is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.”
Matthew 5:3-12 KJV
“Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”

Repent and be converted. Be not deceived.
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. John 17:3 KJV
Don’t think on nothing or nobody but what God’s purpose is, be about His business. Don’t open the door to devils by taking your mind, your thoughts, your eyes off of YHW.
“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.”
Philippians 4:8-9 KJV
“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.”

Our whole duty is this:
“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.”
