The InkPost

Story by: Gail NoblesThere are Four Horsemen in the Book of Revelation. During the pandemic, it felt like the black horse was around because it felt like famine was going to come, and it feels that way now. When I was going to the grocery store during the pandemic, the things I needed most we're not on the shelf. The things I needed most were sometimes hard to get even though you had the money to get it. The Black Horseman that rise the black horse in Revelation 6:5 is understood to be famine. He carries a pair of balances in his hand. When I go to the store now, a box of cereal is five dollars of more. The prices are getting higher, and what you see in a pack is getting smaller. It's very sad. Times are getting tough more and more. I believe the Black Horseman is riding and getting more intense as time goes by.I'm Gail Nobles. You're listening to The InkPost.

Hi! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to the InkPost in the color wheel section. The color I see today is red. I've been seeing different rivers and news reports flowing red in color. I don't know if it has anything to do with the end times. It certainly reminds me of the end times prophecy but it doesn't line up with what the Bible said in order with tribulation. It's funny though how the rivers are turning red all over a sudden and more than one. I'm just glad the rivers are only just red in color and have not turned to blood. I've never seen water turn red before, but we are living in the end times. It has been said in one report that water in Rivers, Lakes, Seas, and even rain is turning red in color. Maybe it's just a warning and a sign. Fish are dying. Some reports say it's algae. Some reports say that it is red tide.Rev. 16:3 tells us that the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.V4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood. Things don't look and sound as bad as Revelation yet. But things are happening in the end times. We see war and climate change. Things that were fortod. Disasters seem to be getting worse. You're listening to the InkPost. Keep watching and praying. Thank you for listening.

Story: Harry Lego_Coleagome ManStory by: Gail Nobles ©️ 2023Cover Art by: Gail NoblesIntro Music by: Gail NoblesHarry did not like his surname Lego which meant put together and play well. He no longer wanted to put together and play. Technology was growing. Harry did not want to build his ideas anymore with his hands. He lived in crucial times and supplies were very expensive for him to build. Times were getting hard. Harry no longer wanted to enter interlock blocks. He wanted to expand. Harry decided to put away his toys. People began to break in homes and steal in his neighborhood. All of his ideas and designs were kept in his laptop. There was gun violence. Harry studied how to transform his body into interlock shapes and travel from one place to another. He decided to make a costume that could do all the work for him so that he did not have to worry about putting his body in danger. Harry's costume was a shield as it as he traveled, bulletproof, and it looked like a beam of light and molecules as it transform.Harry played tricks and fooled men that robbed testing his costume. He snatched money they stole and gave to the poor. After years of experimenting and building, Harry could finally be seen with his best idea out into the world.You're listening to Tales From The Inkpost: Harry Lego. Today’s episode: Harry Lego Coleagome Man by Gail Nobles copyright ©️ 2023.

Cover Art and Story by: Gail Nobles ©️ 2023Hello, I'm Gail Nobles, and you're listening to the InkPost. Today I want to talk to you about another Angel that I have seen. He was just pure white as snow. I can not tell you the angel’s race. That I do not know. I can only imagine what he would have looked like in color. So I decided to make two illustrations. I made a black and white illustration and a colored illustration. The black and white illustration is how I actually saw him. What does the Bible say about angels? They have appeared to people in the Bible like Jacob (Gen. 32:24–30) and Abraham (Gen. 18:1–33). They are spiritual beings. Angels have superhuman power, and they have knowledge.Don’t Worship Angels We are not supposed to bow down to angels according to Rev. 22:8–9. Rev. 22:8 said, “And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.” Rev. 22:9 said, “Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.” Also read Rev. 19:10. God is the only one that we are supposed to worship. God made the angels just like he made human beings. Even the angels worship God. God is our creator. One of the Ten Commandments said, “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.” So if you ever see an angel, remember not to fall down to worship him. Worship God only.

Story by: Gail NoblesPhoto: Pixabay.comNewspaper Press: https://www.freesfx.co.uk/sfx/Newspaper-pressToday’s topic: Tattoo MarkingsThere are a lot of guys and girls putting tattoo markings all over their bodies. I don’t think it looks good at all. A small one here and there doesn’t look so bad. But when they are all over the arms, I think it looks terrible. On top of that, some people have really nice skin. Yet, they want to mark up their bodies all over. There is a Bible verse about cutting into the flesh which can refer to tattoo markings. The Lord said in Leviticus 19:28 Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the Lord.In Cor. 6:19-20 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.So first Corinthians 6 tells us why we shouldn’t do certain things to the body. I think it is sinful to have tattoo markings all over the body. I think going too far with anything is a sin anyway. Too much of anything is not good. I’ve seen some really handsome guys with tattooed faces. I don’t know about how other women feel, but if I were to date a guy, I want to see his face, arms, and legs too. I want to see the natural born man. I’m Gail Nobles, and you’re listening to the InkPost.

Writing effect: Soundbible.comHi, I’m Gail Nobles. Welcome to the InkPost. Today’s topic is “As Long As the Sun and Moon Endureth”. From the book of Psalms. Psalm 72:5 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations. 6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth. 7 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.Now let’s go to Rev. 6:12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;In Revelation, it sounds like God is punishing the world and the wicked for the evil. The day of God’s wrath. But, it sounds as if the book of Psalms is speaking on the millennium. It sounds as if it is speaking of the messiah’s days when his kingdom is fully established. When the righteous will flourish and prosper. What do you think it means when it talks about the sun and moon enduring? I think it means as long as time and the world shall last. Till the moon and the sun will be no more.I’m Gail Nobles, and thank you for listening to the InkPost.

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles from the InkPost in the color wheel section. The color I see today is orange which reminds me of the fire of God.We’ve got to build life on Jesus Christ because he is the rock. He is our solid foundation.“Matt. 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.” We’ve got to follow what the Lord taught. It would be foolish not to. Then we would be building a house on the sand. We wouldn’t be able to survive the storm.Build your hopes on a sure thing. We are living in a time of uncertainty and trouble. When we deal with man, nothing is sure. Our homes and land can get taken away from us. Man is wrapped up in greed, but in Christ Jesus, we have everything. He will give us and will not take from us. What he has to offer us will last forever. We must endure and keep looking up. What he has for us is eternal life. Jesus wants us to make his words the most important thing in our lives. He wants us to put him first.Matt. 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.I’m Gail Nobles from the InkPost, and remember, Jesus is the rock. Keep looking up.

Art and story by: Gail NoblesDigital Art: Gail Nobles © 2014 - 2022Darkness We Can SeeWhen I was a baby girl, I knew something was creepy about shadows. I would watch them form in the car as my father drove at night passing street lights. Growing up, I hated the darkness. I hated sleeping without a light in my room. Whenever there was darkness, it made me feel like there was something in the dark watching me. My imagination would make me almost see little shapes and figures in the dark. I hate not being able to see and especially when a bad storm comes. When all of the lights go out, I can’t see the front of my hand. Growing up, I was alright with being in the dark as long as someone was in the same room with me. Whenever I was afraid, my mother taught me to pray.There is another kind of darkness. It is a darkness you can feel. Wickedness is around us in our lives 24 hours a day and seven days a week. Wickedness is always studying our weakness. Have you ever stopped to wonder about that wickedness, and have you ever studied wickedness? Have you ever figured out Satan’s tricks and games and what he might be doing to you?When you wake up in the morning, how do you feel? Do you feel depressed and don’t know why? If you know you’re a happy person, Satan is messing with your feelings. Do you feel loneliness sometimes? We all do? Satan tries to work through our loneliness to make us sad. He makes us bored, and that’s when we can get anxious and get into trouble. As long as we feel these things, Satan knows he can win and bring us down to nothing like he is.There is prejudice in our world, and man stays in the dark with it. As long as race is against race and countries are against countries, there will always be war and destruction. As long as there is always family feud and families growing apart, there will never be togetherness. We will never see the light and grow to love one another.Do you ever wonder why Satan peeps around the corner and stays in the dark? It is because he is afraid. He is afraid of you and the good and greatness that you might become. According to the Bible, he is just a man.Isaiah 14:16 They that see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; (17) That made the world as a wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners?Don’t give up and turn your back on God. Hang on to him. God is not the enemy. Jesus is the light of the world (St. John 8:12), and he has overcome the world (St. John 16:33). (1 John 4:4) Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.Don’t be afraid of darkness! Trust in God!

Intro by: Gail NoblesKeyboard and drums by: Gail NoblesAll vocals by: Gail NoblesTodays topic isBilly Ward & his Dominoes.In the photo, you can see Billy Ward playing a white grand piano, and in front of him are the Four Dominoes. All wear light colored jackets and dark colored ties. If you look a little closer, you’ll see a small black and white domino on the dominoes’s jackets on the left.So what do we know about Billy Ward and the Dominoes? You may have heard their song 60 Minute Man. One of my grandfather’s favorite songs. It is a rhythm and blues record released in 1951. It was written by Billy Ward and Rose Marks and was one of the first R&B hit records to cross over to become a hit on the pop charts. It is regarded as one of the most important of the recordings that helped generate and shape rock and roll.Sixty Minute Man was banned by many radio stations and was seen as a novelty record at the time. But it crossed the boundaries between gospel singing and blues. It appealed to many white as well as black listeners. Billy Ward and the Dominoes were one of the most successful R&B groups of the early 1950’s.You’re listening to the InkPost of the music section. I’m you’re host, GailNobles.

I’m Gail Nobles at the InkPost in the Color Wheel section.Romans 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.We look for calm seas and the golden sand. We should thank God for holding the land back from the sea. When we watch the news, we see how the global warnings affect the sea levels and how things change. There is trouble in nature. The more evil our world gets, the more destruction comes it seems. Animals are suffering, and people are suffering. If there was no wickedness in the human race, everything else would be in place.Sometimes it seems as if summer doesn’t come on time and doesn’t seem to leave on time. There is climate change. The seasons seemed mixed and the trees bloom so early. Man is confused, and so many are unhappy with this troubled world. We try to go on and look for peace and beauty in nature. We try to live on in love. There is still hope, and there is still love. If there were no hope and love, the world probably wouldn’t go round.St. John 16:21-2221 A woman, when she is in labor, has sorrow because her hour has come; but as soon as she has given birth to the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has been born into the world. Jesus said in verse 22:22 Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.I’m Gail Nobles, and I hope you have enjoyed the podcast. Until next time, I am signing off for now.

Song: True ColorsSong by: Cyndi LauperPhoto credit: Luis fernando delgado ramirez - Own workUsage: wikimedia.org/ CC BY-SA 4.0Podcast vocals: Gail NoblesTrue Colors is a song by Cyndi Lauper, and that’s today’s topic in the music section of the InkPost. The song was released in 1986. It spent two weeks at number one on the Billboard Hot 100. It received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. You could tell that Cyndi Lauper loved all colors because sometimes her hair was red, then pink, blue, and all different colors. Whenever I thought of her, I thought of colors and her song, True Colors.The song is written by Tom Kelly & Billy Steinberg. The song is beautiful song and Cyndi sings it with feeling. The lyrics are about a person with sad eyes, but Cyndi sings, “ I see your true colors shinning through. Don’t be afraid to let them show.” She sings as if those sad eyes really weren’t sad eyes at all.I’m Gail Nobles, and you’re listening to the InkPost. ✍️

Theme by: Gail NoblesTheme title: Ink, Ink, Ink, Ink Spots(Intro singing)Ink Spots everywhere! Hello! I’m Gail Nobles, and you’re listening to the Ink Post, and I’m going to turn over to the music section. I want to take you way back to the 1930’s and 40’s to a group called The Ink Spots. One of the members of the group name was Deek Watson who told of how he was inspired by a fountain pen and how he had to overcome the protests of his fellow members. I guess that’s how the Ink Spots got their name. They were a vocal Jazz doo - wop group with a unique musical style.It’s All Over But The Crying is a 1947 song by The Ink Spots. But what you’ve just heard is not the original. It’s just something added in for the intro. In 1954, there have been well over a hundred vocal groups calling themselves “The Ink Spots” without any right to the name,and without any original members of the group. It has often been the case that these groups claimed to be, “Second generation” or “Third generation Ink Spots. Well, Ink Spots can multiply,and I wanted to add some music history about the group to The InkPost.Thank you for listening everyone. I hope you’ll listen in again soon. I’m signing off for now with the InkPost pen.

THE FICTION SECTIONElectric Train effect: bigsoundbank.comHarry Lego loved to build using Legos as a child. Harry grew up a man with special abilities. He solved problems with his Lego men, and he would always pretend. Harry had no friends. When he was a child, he would pretend that his lego men were real men. Harry turned to computers and technology and made his men digital. Then Harry made the men in his own image. He thought, “ I will make me a Lego World.”Locked in Harry’s computer, there are many digital men created in his image. They were created to be smart and to build many inventions. They could not build real buildings, but only models of buildings so that real buildings could be built on the outside in the real world. However, Harry wondered how to make the digital men robots so that they could be real in his world. He wanted his robots to have a mind of their own just as he did. Harry wanted them to be made with real flesh and to look like real people. He did not care much for cloning. Harry thought that would be going too far and things could get out of hand. Harry looked at his digital men in pixel form. He wanted to invent a machine that could create another him from one of his digital men. Harry wanted to create a special type of skin for robots. First, Harry had to build a machine.

Lightning sounds: Grant EvansUsage: Attribution 3.0https://soundbible.com/2053-Thunder-Sound-FX.htmlPhoto credit: Pixabay.comHi! I’m Gail Nobles at the InkPost. I see a lot of news stories making the headlines. But I have a story that really needs to go out today and quickly.The Book of Matt.5:34But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne: 35Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: …We need to take that verse from the Bible into consideration. I heard a story told once about a man that was in a boat on the water. It was a beautiful sun shinny day. The man lifted his hands up towards the sky and lightning came and struck him. There was not one dark cloud in the sky. I don’t know if the man had been cursing or swearing. But when I heard the story, I thought it to be the most peculiar story that I had ever heard. However, the story does remind me that we do need to be careful in what we say and in what we do beneath heaven. I find the word of the Lord to be true. And it’s written in the news everyday. The things that happen; the things that we see are found in the scriptures. So when you go on your way, try not to curse and try to swear. We should be careful in what we do and what we say. Remember the story of the man struck by lightning. Remember that heaven is God’s throne and that earth is his footstool. (Lightning)

Title: The Doorman That Blocks UsStory by: Gail NoblesSometimes life is just not how it should be. There are many of us that want to reach our goals in life, and sometimes it seems like something is always in the way. There is a doorman. We go to work with thinking of going back home the minuet we hit the plant. A job is a door opened, but it may not be the one we want to enter. So we try to pep up and be happy as we work, but something will not let us. We try to work together, and when we get along and work as a team, something tries to stop us. There is a doorman. He can close doors, and he can open doors, and he always seems to close the doors of good opportunities. We need to remove that doorman and replace him with a doorman that is God sent. Maybe you have worked really hard just to be rejected or to be replaced. The doorman won’t open the door for you to get a raise, but he’ll open the door for you to leave your job. Why is that?When you watch the news there is always a problem. Politicians say no. There is a doorman. We need the one above that is over all doormen to bless businesses again and to bless jobs to increase raises so that people can buy to keep people in business. The doorman of this world is always taking us a step backwards, but we need the doorman of heaven to take us forward. Keep God's word in mind.Revelation 3:7 “To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.Revelation 3:8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.

Artwork by: Gail Nobles © 2019Newspaper Press effect: https://www.freesfx.co.uk/The InkPost From the Color Wheel SectionToday's Topic is: One Human RaceFrom the Rainbow CategoryPhoto Image: The InkPostWe say that we are one human race, but man seems confused about what the human race is. There is prejudice in the hearts of men like we are not one human race. Yes, there are different skin tones and God gave us different languages. God started that because man was not right with him from the beginning when the whole earth was of one language and speech. There were men who were up to mischief. So God confounded the language and scattered the men abroad upon the face of the earth, so they would be confused, would not be one, and so that they wouldn’t understand each other. They were building a city and tower to reach unto heaven. Because of what God had done, the city is called Babel (Genesis 11).When man is not right with God, everything for him goes wrong. We are confused this very day, and things are still not right for man. There is war, hatred, and racism. If it were not for the good serving God, there probably would be no world today. There probably wouldn’t be a human race at all.I think about the days of Pharaoh and how he made the Hebrews slaves. He did not like the fact that the children of Israel were more and mightier than they. Taskmasters were set over them to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh treasure cities, Pithom and Raamses (Exodus 1:9–11). Pharaoh was prejudice and jealous of the Hebrews. History repeated itself, and slavery happened to the Africans, and they were brought to America. Instead of man living by the word of God, man has to move away from God with his own ideas. He has to continue to go to war, and people continue to fight against each other. Man refuses and rebels against God and men will not come together as one. One day we will all be one for sure.Matt. 25:32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats:First written at Medium.com on Aug 30, 2014

Title: Visionary News _ Seeing an AngelNewspaper Press: https://www.fresfx.co.ukStory by: Gail NoblesThe InkPost from the Color Wheel section.This is Visionary News.Today's Topic is, "Seeing an Angel", from the orange Category.Photo of an angel dressed in white.Sometimes some of us can see things that are invisible. One night I woke up and saw an angel dressed in white. He had big, bushy, long, and reddish hair with a humble face. The angel had a smooth face. He did not have any hair on his face. I reached out to hold his hand, but he did not intend to stay and chat. The angel looked up towards heaven. He rose up into the air and vanished. The angel did not appear to have any wings. I guess the angel was a guardian angel. I saw him after waking up. I have seen angels several times in my life, but it is not often that I see angels. Have you seen any angels?We know from the Bible that angels exist in heaven. the Bible tells us a lot about them. Angels are still among us today. They are sent by God. Hebrews 13:2 tells us "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware."I'm Gail Nobles, and this is the InkPost.First written on Medium.com on July 4, 2014

Title: The Woman Without the HusbandNewspaper Press: https://www.fresfx.co.ukStory by: Gail NoblesThe InkPost from the Color Wheel section.Today's news is "The Woman Without the Husband" from the yellow category.Photo fiction character: Lion the Gracious representing courage and power.There was a woman that wanted to get out of her marriage. The husband tried to put fear into her to keep her from leaving. When the woman separated from her husband, she had some peace but not total peace. She was use to the husband taking care of things and being with her, but she had to take control without the husband. The woman was left in charge, and she had to get out on her own to find a job left with children. It can be a scary situation for a woman who has never worked in her life. She has a lot more responsibility on her own without the man. Some women find the courage to work and are happy when they find a job. They start doing things that they did not know that they could do.When we don’t find the courage to try, we may never know what we can do on our own. It’s good to know that you can have control and be in charge over some things in your life without depending on anyone. Sometimes we have no choice but to be strong, pick up, and just go. There are people that will try to discourage you from getting anywhere in life, but you know that you have to keep moving with courage and faith.Proverbs 28:1The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.Joshua 1:9Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.First Written on medium.com Dec. 15, 2015
