Blessings my friends! It’s my duty as a watchman to declare what I see. And what I see is the soon coming day when everything that we know today will be changed suddenly! When the Temple in heaven is opened everything will change instantly! This teaching series will be focused on the book of Revelation and how it shows us the order of service that opens the Temple and what happens in heaven and on earth when this day comes! We must be ready for the midnight cry! For behold the bridegroom comes! We must be ready to go out and meet him! ​ Amen!

The plan is to purchase shares in certain companies, ETFs, and REITs, that all pay dividends, while in my accumulation phase. The companies involved are to be Dividend Aristocrats, Dividend Champions, blue chips, and a few other companies I believe that are on the right track. Due to good management practices, I expect these companies to increase their dividend payout every year…if a company freezes their dividend in the future, I may either stop purchasing shares of their stock and just hold on, or sell all of my shares and purchase more shares of other companies, depending on the scenario. These are the companies that I’m currently long in: AAPL Apple Inc ADM Archer Daniels Midland Co AFL Aflac Inc BRKB Berkshire Hathaway Inc CL Colgate-Palmolive Co DIS Walt Disney Co ED Consolidated Edison Inc EMR Emerson Electric Co FSLR First Solar Inc GIS General Mills Inc HAS Hasbro Inc HCP Healthcare Partners Inc HIBB Hibbett Sports Inc HSY Hershey Co KO Coca-Cola Co LEG Leggett & Platt Inc MVEN Themaven Inc O Realty Income Corp SBUX Starbucks Corp SO Southern Co T AT&T Inc TGT Target Corp TTWO Take-Two Interactive Software Inc VFC VF Corp VGK Vanguard FTSE Europe Index Fund VOO Vanguard S&P 500 Index Fund VT Vanguard Total World Stock Index Fund WBA Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc List will be updated, as I purchase shares in other companies, ETFs, and REITs. The bolded pay dividends; the majority are distributed quarterly, DIS pays dividends twice a year, and O pays monthly.
