Yahshua – you know Him as Jesus – was born to a virgin, turned water to wine, taught, healed the sick, raised the dead, casted out demons, walked on water, calmed the storm, and fed a crowd of thousands with a few fish and a few loaves of bread, among many other things. He was killed on the cross as payment for the sins of all mankind, three days later He rose from the dead. Forty days later He ascended into heaven where He sits at the right hand of the Father. He is returning very soon, but before He does, Satan, the devil, is coming to pretend to be Jesus/God. Satan is an angel, and he will have certain supernatural powers with which to try to fool everyone. He will, for example, be able to make fire come down from heaven in the sight of men. He will only be on earth a short time before the real King of Kings, Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, returns. When the real Jesus comes we will all be transformed into our spiritual bodies at the same moment. Jesus came in the flesh to offer forgiveness of sins and eternal life to anyone who believes and calls on His precious name!
if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. – Romans 10:9
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat. But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste? For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor. When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me. For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always. For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial. Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her. – Matthew 26:6-13
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
To anoint your self, the sick, or a building for spiritual protection:
Get a small bottle of olive oil and pour off a small amount into a smaller vessel like a vial or baby food jar. Use the rest of the bottle for cooking. Ask the Lord to bless your vial of oil in Jesus name. Anoint yourself with the oil by placing a dab of oil on tip of finger and touch it to your forehead, and ask the Lord to bless you/heal you. Place a dab of oil on your finger and anoint the door posts and order all negativity and evil out of the house, and order that nothing negative or evil can enter into your home including piggybacking on a person entering, order it to be so in the name of Jesus. Anoint all potential entrances to your home. To anoint the sick, place oil on tip of finger and touch it to the head of the sick and say a prayer of healing over them in Jesus name. See James Chapter 5:14-15.
It’s the Dr. Suess video….love all the rhymes
😊 i love summer but i try to stay out of the sun too good thing I don’t burn just get really really tan 😂😂😂
Hey Mark, will they survive a Scottish summer?
A true veggie connoisseur! Great knowledge, ideas, tips & triks!
I am starting perpetual spinach & ruby red chard in little seed pots, to be planted in the garden in a couple of weeks when larger & hardened off. Also some kale!
My herbs did pretty well, but they’re not a sustainable veg.
Wish me luck, for my summer vegs have failed or have been slow!
I love all the fun facts included.
I loved this vid
I’m late to the channel. just started a balcony garden… and your info amazing
I am in S France and just pulled out red onions which never bulbed out, and started seeding! I looked at this because now i have a spare bed with nothing in and it is late May and getting hot. I wonder where i could possibly get any of the things you mention – as very traditional here no one grows anything but peppers, strawberries and aubergines! I need those Egyptian onions and perpetual spinach and those fantasic Ratstail radish!!!!! Where from? and also were the onions sets or seeds?
Where can I find Egyptian spinach seeds ? Cant seem to find a reliable seller.
Thank you so much for this video! I totally get the sunscreen thing. I part my hair in the middle, and have to use sunscreen even there. 😏
Today is only 93° Fahrenheit here, but the heat index is 107. So this video is right on time! Again thanks, Mate!
T y since I live with little shade
Kangaroo goes well with kale and sweet potato.
I love you,
I learn so much from you , I love your humor. Much love from the USA
Love your channel. I’m newer to gardening and learned big lesson with deer. They ate everything. So put up a fence!!! I’m in northern Mississippi & this Summer it is very hot some days 95 degrees. The easiest in the heat for me is Butternut squash. You need room or make arches for it to grow up. But wow put the seeds in the ground & in 3 days 2 inch plants. One month and big leaves on vines & lots of big yellow blooms. It produces large 5 to 10 pound squash. This plant just too off. keeps 3 months without refrigeration. Tastes wonderful & very nutritious. Cantaloupe started quickly but a bit slower to grow big. Cucumbers also seem to keep producing. Watermelon also good in the heat. Trying peppers again because of the deer. Grow till Jesus comes to Rapture His Church!
1 Thess 4:16-17 much love ✨🕊✨
Hello from the Southern US….I like the way he talks
Thank you. I’m going to try it in Florida
Maize is pronounces more like mai(kinda like my)-ees
What varieties of kale grow best in the heat?
Where can we get the seeds for all these things not in our supermarket
My list of how and where to get ASAP, ever increasing. Egyptian spinach? I can’t even get a reliable source for papaya so I can plant it. I’m seed saving out the wazoo! Top of my wish list is Alphonse Karr cuttings, or any runner variety bamboo. Our market is clearly, hmm, controlled. And seeds that have an under 20% germ rate are selling here like 10 seeds/$50. It’s insanity. Am I the only one noticing, Okinawa sweet potato, or any other variety. I’ve got only 6 or so set up to produce slips. Woo hoo, "Merica"! 🧐Any
Kangkong, canned tuna, onion, soysauce, stirfried! Yum
In Japan they even use sweet potatoes 🍠 for ice cream. The sugars produced has a higher melting point. AND it’s delicious!
Cukes, summer squash, peppers.
We live in the PNW, (WA state) USA
Some types of kale can last up to 4 or 5 years. Do not dig it up!! We also get the heat here in my 8b/9a zone in Texas, west of San Antonio. I plant mine in the ground, on the East side of the house, where it gets morning son up until about 1 pm or so. I cut the newer fully formed leaves off, leave some older leaves and the new leaf buds on the stalk so it can get the sun it needs to grow. It continues to produce new leaves almost the entire year. After about 4 years, they finally go to seed then die off. Although sometimes they do not go to seed, depending on variety and conditions. Most farmers pull it up, grow it as an annual, but it is in fact a perennial. Just make sure to keep it watered regularly, slightly less in winter, so it doesn’t dry completely out.
Malabar spinach loves the heat, and grows vigorously up a trellis or pole. Okra loves the heat. Armenian cucumber loves the heat, unlike it’s other traditional cucumber counterparts. I grow my traditional cucumbers on the East wall, where they get morning sun, and it prolongs my growing season. But the Armenians I can grow in my grape yard with my Spanish grape in full sun, no problem. Watermelon loves heat, with regular watering. So do my patio eggplants, though not our 6 o’clock full sun which burns a lot of plants here with our 11+ UV rays. So I grow them near some trees where they get sun up until about 3 pm, then get shade. They love my 3 tier raised bed so much they came back as perennials, only dying back in winter. My chili petins (pequins) like heat. Just make sure they don’t dry out in the heat. Those die back in winter, come back every year, even in pots. And the birds will scatter seeds so be prepared for volunteers if you are not vigilant about picking the ripe fruit regularly because they produce tons of small chilis (yes, this type even grows in shade or semi-bright indirect light, but do not produce as many peppers as full sun). Ground cherry also loves heat, with regular watering. I had some wild growing here, decided to dig a few up and pot them. They are perennials as well.
Peruan strawberries is nr. 9
Can you prepare and sell your seeds?
Snake beans grow readily in tropical summer along as grown i shade. They can be eaten as green beans or for the dried legume. Wing beans also grow in tropical summer. Chillies of course. Great video.
I live in FL and your videos have been an inspiration to me because I can easily match up what will grow here during our summer (or “winter”). Thank you for doing these videos.
What a fun inspiration you are! Thank you for all I’ve learned. I deal with deer, squirrels and rabbits. I suppose the possums and raccoons will find the garden, soon, too.
I don’t grow anything yet but I still listen because you are more relaxing than the news. 🤣
I am moving to philippines and wanting to know your thoughts on growing potatoes not sweet ones as i know they are easy and also growing carrots.Its a tropical climate i thought about shade cloth etc or maybe there are diffrent varieties that will work,anyway if you get time let me know thanks GREG.
One word: herbs
🔥👍 Hail to the Kale
Kale can grow in heat?!
I even grew cherry tomatoes in a pot on a beachside balcony and they decided to spread onto the floor and carpet it entirely. I never expected that since the salt air and wind usually kill plants. I had limited success with oakleaf lettuce too. Now I am in a first floor garden apt where little grows because it receives very little sun. Its a real bummer.
I never have luck with kale
Okra and Armenian cucumbers, lemon cucumber.
Where do you get seeds for all these like Egyptian walking onion, never seen these vegetables types before in my country
Good info dog, righteous puns
Is that kale at the end "lacinato" or "dinosaur kale"?
I love your videos and your accent!
