Prepare as you praise.  Prepare for these times are not like any you have ever seen, At no other time, at no other place.  The time is near, coming like a giant tidal wave, and My people are not ready. 

All you beasts of the field, come to devour all you beast watchmen are blind they are all without knowledge; they are all silent dogs; they cannot bark,  dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber. The dogs have a mighty appetite; they never have enough. But they are shepherds who have no understanding they have all turned to their own way, each to his own gain, one and all. “Come,” they say, “let me get wine, let us fill ourselves with strong drink; and tomorrow will be like this day, great beyond measure.”  Isaiah 56: 9-12

MY people are soft, weak and fearful. Great falling away is coming for mankind has not heard truth spoken by rabbi, politician, priest or pastor.  And when the shaking comes millions will not know what to believe or who to follow.  Many will follow the liars and the man of lawlessness, the deceiver, anti-Messiah     

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”    John 3:16-21

Powers of darkness. Waiting in the wings, behind closed doors. Remnant...Watch, pray and prepare.

With great expectation await the arrival of the LORD. Have your lamps lit, your light shining and My Glory on your lips and in your hearts. I AM with you. Fear Not!          

Let your light so shine before men, that they my see your good  works and glorify your Father which is in heaven.  Matthew5:16

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come and the years draw near of which you will say, “I have no pleasure in them”; before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars are darkened and the clouds return after the rain, in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men are bent, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those who look through the windows are dimmed, and the doors on the street are shut—when the sound of the grinding is low, and one rises up at the sound of a bird, and all the daughters of song are brought low—they are afraid also of what is high, and  terrors are in the way; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along, and desire fails, because man is going to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets—before the silver cord is snapped, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is shattered at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern, and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. Vanity of vanities, says the Preacher; all is vanity.  Ecclesiastes 12:1-8

Trust in Me....trust only in Me. “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In My Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to Myself, that where I am you may be also. John  14:1-3

Cumi Arise!   Damsel get up! Was the LORD  speaking to one or to many? There are so many opportunities to doubt, question or fear. To become anxious, troubled or depressed. But take heart, what is coming, must come for there is great sin in your nation. It is only when My judgment comes do  men awaken and repent. Know you are in the palm of My hand. Stand strong.  Days speed past.  We must work the works of Him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work. John 9:4

But you can give thanks with a grateful heart, pray  and praise the LORD!

The words of the wise are like goads, and like nails firmly fixed are the collected sayings; they are given by one Shepherd. My son, beware of anything beyond these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh. The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, with very secret thing, whether good or evil. Ecclesiastes 12;11-14

The wind blows to the south and goes around to the north; around and around goes the wind, and on its circuits the wind returns. All streams run to the sea, but the sea is not full; to the place where the streams flow, there they flow again. All things are full of weariness; a man cannot utter it; the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Ecclesiastes 1:6-9

A great shaking is coming...suddenly, but do not be shaken. You have been warned, prepared for what is to come. The remainder of the year will bring much that will bring opportunities to doubt, cower in fear be anxious or confused. Remember My word: 

Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would  I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to Myself, that where I am you may be also. John 14:1-3

We are not called to be brave nor courageous apart from Yeshua or Holy Spirit.  Our hope comes from  the LORD Who made heaven and earth.  Do not expect an easy road, expect burdens, trials, hurt and heartache. The way of the cross is the Via Dolorosa, the way of suffering. 

When Paul and Barnabas had preached the gospel to Derbe and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and  to Antioch, strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God. And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they had believed. Acts 14:21-23

Via Dolorosa was the road chosen for man in The Garden. We must suffer many hardships to enter the kingdom of God and remember:  Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love Him. Let no one say when He is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and He Himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.

Do not be deceived, My beloved. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. Of his own will he brought us forth by the Woes of Truth.  That we should be a kind of first-fruits of His creatures. James 1:12-18 

Paul overcame, Barnabas overcame, and so can you.

Do not be content to sit on the sidelines of life. Do not allow your age, your bank account, your position limit your ability to serve Me.  I need workers I can trust. You will be used as you continue to yield to My Will, My Word. You have been called for such a time as this. From the beginning you were Mine. Your name in now written in the Lambs book of life. Serve with a glad heart. Allow Me to open doors. Trust you hear My voice when I speak. 

Remember the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. “In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions”  It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. And have mercy on those who doubt; save others by snatching them out of the fire; to others show mercy with fear, hating even the garment stained by the flesh. Book of Jude

Cling more tightly to Me. No fear, but abundant faith. Darkness looms, fight the darkness with the Light of the Truth on My Word. All other ground is sinking sand. 

O, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive! Walter Scott.  The heart of man is far from the heart of God. My Word they do not hear. Soon this will change, it always does. When trial or tribulation comes hearts will change....for a time.

Pray into what is coming that indeed those wo reach out to Me in the midst of the commotion will find I AM all they need. Prayer is much needed now as never before.

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame! In Your righteousness deliver me and rescue me; incline Your ear to me, and save me! Be to me a rock of refuge, to which I may continually come; You have given the command to save me, (Ps. 91) for You are my Rock and my Fortress. Psalm 71:1-3

Remember My Word to you years ago. "Man has no good thoughts, ALL good thoughts come from God." You did not respond then, you must respond now. Don't shrink back, time is not on your side.  Work now and see My glory manifest in ways you have never thought possible. Believe in miracles. Believe in the goodness of God. Believe in God.

These are dangerous times and you must know that I AM all you will need to survive. Not only will you survive, but prosper and thrive in the ways of the LORD. 

There are other options, many more, yet all but one will lead to heartache, worry and woe. Only One is able to make blind eyes see, deaf ears hear, the lame to walk and the breath of My Spirit to sustain. Cling to My Word.

...let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:28-29

Life happens. Sickness, trials, tribulation, setbacks, suffering. Sorrow comes to all. Do not expect that because you are a child of the King  troubles will not come. They come to all for you life in a fallen world. Continue to lean on Me. Trust I AM in control. All will be well.

Do not look at what is happening around the world. Remember, you are living in a fallen world. Look to Me. the Author and Perfector of your Faith. 

Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, and the sheep of His hand...Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts,...Psalm 95:6-8

Remember, together we fight and together we win and believe Me when I tell you, it is a fight to the finish to stand in faith. But I AM here with you and you will be okay. Keep joy in your heart. Allow no unclean thing to rob you of My goodness or My glory.

You are safe in the palm of My hand.

While typing the post, this song kept running through my mind. Here are the lyrics to the song written by  Civilla Martin 1904 and set to music by her husband Walter. 

Be not dismayed whate'er betide,  God will take care of you. Beneath His wings of love abide

God will take care of you.

No matter what may be the test, God will take care of you. Lean weary one upon His breast, God will take care of you.

God will take care of you, through every day or'er all the way,  He will take care  God will take care of you....

And He always will!

Don't judge by what is seen or heard. Get past the senses and look into the heart. There you will see truth. Rejoice in each step taken by others that brings them closer to Me. Don't become irritated or frustrated. Rest, refresh and know that I AM at work in your midst. Again, rest and refresh and rejoice that the Light is becoming brighter for millions. 

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent His only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and His love is perfected in us. 1 John 4: 7-12

Do not be taken in by false teachers who share truth mixed with hype and theory. Trust only in Me. Guard your heart and your mind. Much in months to come will need great wisdom, discernment and  courage to understanding and remember you are not alone.  

In early May I heard...'a great deception is coming to the nations of the world. Millions will swallow the lie and give heed to seducing spirits.' Please pray that the Spirit of Truth will prevail over the lies, liars and seducing spirits of darkness and evil. 

Be alert to the encroachment of darkness. Gathering storms, prepare. Fear not! Be at peace regardless the situation.  I AM the same in the darkness as in the light. Allow the Light, My Light to fill every area of your life, giving no room, no place for evil and the hordes of demonic darkness that spews forth their venom. 

Be on guard, keep awake .For you do not know when the time will come. It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servant's in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows  or in the morning— lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.” Mark 13:33-37

Glorify Me as you glory in My presence and give praise to the One and Only King of the universe. Forever it is written in heaven; I AM God ~ I fail not, nor do I change.  I AM...... Messiah Yeshua....LORD of ALL.

What can be said of a nation that has lost it' moral compass? What can be said of a nation so filled with confusion, bitterness, fear and hatred that good is now evil and evil is now good? We are perhaps at a loss for words, thankful yet wondering how the events of the past weekend were allowed to unfold, killing, shooting innocent citizens, attempting the assassination of a former president?

Life is cheap, our nation' moral compass is broken, we need help and we need God.

2 Chronicles 7:14 give us the requirements for turning our lives and our nation around...

"IF My people, who are called by My Name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways....THEN I will hear from heaven, I will forgive their sin and I will heal their land." 

Responses have been telling, it appears much hatred still remains.

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through Him. Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the Name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. 

For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.” John 3:6-21

Dreams teach, trials test and stretch, both designed to educate My children, to grow their faith and trust in Me. Difficult days approach. Days not experienced by this generation. Many are not prepared, many will loose their way. As you see difficult days approaching, pray, proclaim, decree and stand strong on the promises of God. 

"All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers and the flower falls, but The Word of the Lord remains forever.” 1 Peter 1:24-25

The Almighty speaks! His voice is heard in the heavenlies. His will accomplished by His creation. Earth groans under the weight of its sin, refusing to acknowledge God, His will or His power.

Soon that will change. My voice will be heard from mountain top to valley. Darkness will explode in Light and My will will be done on earth just as it is done in heaven. 

"And behold, the glory of the God of Israel was coming from the east. And the sound of His coming was like the sound of many waters, and the earth shone with His glory...."Ezekiel 43:2

Yes My child it will be glorious for My children, but for the earth, fear and trembling will fill hearts and minds for they do not know the things of God.

I AM always has you in His heart, in His mind. Each child of God carries a very special place in the heart of God. Know He sees you when you cry. Inside, outside, in the sunshine, in the shadows, He sees you and He cares.

And you were dead in the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience— among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved and raised us up with Him and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages He might show the immeasurable riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:1-9

Keep eternity in your heart, now and forever.

Our God is an awesome God. Hearts not joined with His will experience great anxiety in days and weeks ahead. Things will begin to rachet up in weeks ahead. 

O LORD God of heaven, the great and awesome God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep His commandments, let Your ear be attentive and Your eyes open, to hear the prayer of Your servant(s)...Nehemiah 1:5-6

A quiet before the storm. Do not be overtaken or surprised by what you see. Know this must be...it is a part of My end time plan to change the hearts and minds of the masses.

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will hear you. You will seek Me and find Me, when you seek Me with all your heart. Jeremiah 29:11-13

Healing and restoration is the children' bread. Do not forsake your inheritance. Do not exchange your inheritance for the glitz and glamour of the present. Inheritance comes at a set time, determined in advance. Learn to keep alert. Know the times and seasons in which you are living. 

Therefore let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall. No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation He will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. 1 Corinthians 10:12-13

My child is one who follows in the footsteps of the their Father. Always follow Me, I know the route, the path to your healing and restoration.  

Rest and be a peace. It will be well with  your soul. Spiritual healings are oft more needed than physical. I offer both. Follow Me. Fear not. Trust and follow Me. 

Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers! For they will soon fade like the grass and wither like the green herb. Trust in the LORD, and do good, dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him, and He will act. Psalm 37:1-5

Trust Me now, trust Me then. Know with confidence I AM is still on the throne. May man make his plans, but I, the LORD, order his steps. 

Do not allow your light to be extinguished or your voice to be silenced. Much opposition is coming. Stand in My strength and shine your light for the Glory of God. 

Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you. For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the LORD will arise upon you, and His glory will be seen upon you. Isaiah 60:1-2

Great challenges are coming to My people, My church. Don't back down when opposition comes; now is your time to shine. You have been called for such a time as this. In our own strength we are unable to stand, but in Him we can do mighty works and bring glory, honor and give praise to our King.

...be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:10-12

Afflictions are a part of life. In this world cursed system heartache and trials will be prevalent.  These were determined in the garden at the fall, but My people can live above the fallout of all chaos and conflict. Keep your mind stayed on Me. Live a life based on My Word. For when you do, no chaos nor conflict will shake your foundation for you are built on solid rock,  NOT sinking sand. 

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD, and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones. Proverbs 3:5-8

Peace...My Word is peace. No hurt, no bitterness....Peace! Keep heart and mind stayed on  Me. Allow no bitterness to gain a stronghold. Guard your tongue, watch what comes from your mouth. Peace is more precious than bitterness. 

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. John 14:27

Rest and be a peace. Let go...let it go, let all hurt and bitterness go... but learn from it. 

Use it as another opportunity to grow in His Amazing Grace.!!.

Helplessness, hopelessness surrounds My people. My creation groans under the weight of its sin and separation from God. 

I will punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their iniquity. I will put an end to the pomp of the arrogant and lay low the pompous pride of the ruthless. Isaiah 13:11

Obstacles, great obstacles await the nations of the world. Grieve for the nations, grieve for what has been lost due to their rebellion. Grieve that My church has not done more to help the helpless or give hope to the hopeless. 

From the Book of Amos, Chapter 5  "Seek good, and not evil, that you may live; and so the LORD, the God of hosts will be with you...Hate evil, and love good, and establish justice in the gate. It may be that the LORD, the God of hosts will be gracious to the remnant...."

Grieve that your nation lies among those who have lost their way and turned their back on Me, grieve that they have turned their back on the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob....the God of Israel. 

...the day is near, the day of the LORD is near; it will be a day of clouds, a time of doom for the nations.  It will come, are you ready?

Their hope, their help comes from the LORD who made heaven and earth but the nations of the world care not. The time of judgment has come. so too a time to grieve. (grieve ~  a mixture of Divine indignation against sin and a heartfelt anguish concerning the plight of His creation).

Protests, mayhem, chaos, confusion...the way of the world, the way of darkness. Man has been blinded, unable to see with clarity what is happening. 

Pray for revelation of Truth. The young, the old, the weak, the strong all need the Truth. Pray and proclaim Truth into your nation. Bind the power of darkness, pray against the evil. Share the Truth and shine for great will be your reward when you do.

May God be gracious to us and bless us and make His face to shine upon us, that Your way may be known on earth, Your saving power among all nations. Let the peoples praise You, O God; let all the peoples praise You!  Psalm 67

The voice of reason is silenced in marketplace, academia, politics and pulpits. Man has chosen the way of the world. Leaving the safety of My Word they fall prey to wickedness, perversion, strife and sin. 

Lurking in darkness, hidden from prying eyes lies the wealth of the world held by the evil one and his hordes of hell. His power supreme, unchallenged as millions drink from his fountain of filth.

A day of reckoning is coming. A day of worry and woe is ahead for those who have chosen to ignore the signs, the warnings, refusing The Son, Yeshua and His sacrifice, clinging to the world and the wealth of those who have a form of godliness but deny the power. 

I came to divide, wheat from tares, dark from light, good from evil. My ways are not the ways of man. My ways demand commitment to Truth. The world offers choices ~ tolerance, diversity, My way offers eternal life. One choice. My Word or the world?  That is the choice I offer. All other choices offer a dead end with heartache and sorry. Choose life, Choose My Way, Choose Me.

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers, but his delight is in the law of the LORD and on His law he meditates day and night...Psalm 1:1-2 

Much more is coming, much heartache bringing uncertainty, chaos and confusion to millions. It is only by My Word that you will make it through the tough times, navigating the twists and turns that come. Trust in Me, trust in My Word. I will see you through the rough places and bring you to a place of safety. Trust in me to do all I have spoken in My Word.

The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Therefore, the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish. Psalm 1:4-6

Turn away. Look ahead, recognize the signs and follow Me!

I will not be mocked, says the LORD. I will not be mocked or rejected by those who should know better. The world, the flesh and the devil have taken a firm hold on millions within your nation and nations around the globe. Cast away into the Glory of My Presence. Refuse to join in the rebellion of others. Keep heart and mind fixed on Me.

Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. Galatians 6:7-9

Change will come swiftly...be alert, be prepared but do not be taken in by hollow promises and liberal lies. Continue the call to action. Continue undaunted by all that is going on around you. My plans and purposes will not delay but will come at there appointed time.

If anyone teaches a different doctrine and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching that accords with godliness, he is puffed up with conceit and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy craving for controversy and for quarrels about words, which produce envy, dissension, slander, evil suspicions, and constant friction among people who are depraved in mind and deprived of the truth, imagining that godliness is a means of gain. But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out...1 Timothy 6:3-7

I have called yet few have answered, I have warned yet few have changed. Now My voice will be louder, longer and with greater force. Keep standing on the promises of God.

“Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid. For the LORD God is my strength and my song, and He has become my Salvation. Isaiah 12:2

Be warned, be armed for the battle will be fierce. Rest in Me. Do not see the problem, see what can be through prayer and praise. Do not fail to give Me praise for praise will be water and refreshing to your spirit, soul and body....

Praise the LORD! Praise God in His sanctuary; Praise Him in His mighty heavens. Praise Him for His mighty deeds. Praise Him according to His excellent greatness! Praise Him with trumpet sound, praise Him with lute and harp! Praise Him with tambourine and dance. Praise Him with strings and pipe. Praise Him with sounding cymbals. Praise Him with loud clashing cymbals. Let everything that has breath PRAISE THE LORD!!!  Psalm 150

Escalation, conflict, war... Make much of your time with Me for the days ahead are fraught with evil. Darkness on many fronts. Nation will rise against nation. It has already begun, but will become more intense as the year progresses. 

Fear not you who belong to Me. Watch, pray and live in My Presence, My Peace, My Promises and rest in My Amazing Grace, Mercy and Love. 

Say to those who have an anxious heart, Be strong; fear not! Behold, your God will come with vengeance with the recompense of God. He will come and save you. Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened and the ears of the deaf unstopped. Isaiah 35:4-5

My Word is filled with provision, promises, peace love and joy. The world is filled with poison, broken promises and worthless platitudes. You are in the world, but a child of God is not of the world. 

I have watched and I have waited. Still the darkness continues to spread; hatred, violence, chaos, confusion injustice, evil, lies... My hand is lifted; lifted to redeem, lifted to judge. Each must choose, time is very short. Tribulation is coming, look around and see; oppression, suffering, woe have already begun. Be aware, do not be taken in by the trappings of the world. Be on your guard do not be overcome by the darkness.  Grow closer to Me as each day passes. Grow in My wisdom and My strength. Grow in the knowledge of Who I AM and what will be after the fall.

God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. By this is love perfected with us, so that we may have confidence for the day of judgment, because as He is so also are we in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. We love because He first loved us...1 John 4:17-19

Man will fall, hearts not joined with Mine will experience great anxiety in days and weeks ahead. My plans and purposes are to revive the fallen. To bring release to those bound in the darkness, prisons, chains of their own making. 

Rejoice and be glad. Ring bells in praise for all God has done. He calms the raging seas, and brings peace in the midst of the storms. Nothing can come against the children of God that He is not able to counter with a swipe of His hand or a Word from The Word. We are safe in the palm of His hand. Choose this day whom you will serve. 

Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flocks be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stall, YET (still), I will rejoice in the LORD; I will take joy in the God of my Salvation! God, the LORD is my strength. Habakkuk 3

Know My Word. My Word must become your lifeline. 

Be imitators of God, as beloved children. and walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. Ephesians 5:1-2

Don't turn back, don't doubt or fear. All My promises are yes and AMEN in Yeshua. Cling to what you know to be truth, trust none other. All other ground is sinking sand. Watch over My Word to perfect it in your heart. Do not assume you know My Word.....'know' My Word. Bury it deep in your heart and in your mind. Many things that are coming will bring great deception to millions. KNOW My Word and stand in My Truth. 

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. Ephesians 5:15-17

Confusion, misspeak...challenges in media, academia, religion and government. Evil sits atop a very high throne as he, ha satan, oversees his demonic empire. His days are numbered and this he knows very well and acts accordingly. The great and glorious God has ordained these times and challenges that must come to many nations of the world. The time of great apostacy has begun. It slithered in under the cover of darkness and took up residence within the hearts and minds of millions. Darkness grabs many hearts. Hearts that do not know My heart, hearts that do not know My Son. 

Dark grows the days ahead. You are called to be a light in the darkness. Shine child of God. Shine for My glory rests upon you. Allow My Word to be your guide. Do not expect all to join you in your journey of faith, but you do not journey alone. Choose wisely! Times are rough, evil is spreading and you must stand strong against the forces of darkness.  Pray, petition and stand strong. These are the days of Elijah.....and you must declare the Word of the LORD.

...the hour has come for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed. The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light. Romans 13:11-12

Through the actions of man, ha satan moves and through the actions of Almighty God ha satan will be removed.

The pledge of allegiance declares America  is 'one nation under God..."  but what god?  

Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. On account of these the wrath of God is coming. In these you too once walked, when you were living in them. But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator. Here there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave,  free; but Christ is all, and in all. Colossians 3 

What has taken the place of God in your life? Possessions, politics, position, perversion. What occupies your heart and your mind?  In Isaiah 26 we read:  "You (LORD) keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You." Do you have perfect peace? Is your mind stayed on Him or has the world and all it offers clouded your mind to the things of God and now you dwell more on worldly woes rather than His Wonderful Word?

Spend time praying. There is little time for trivial pursuits. My Will, My Way is being ignored, lost among the clamor of the world and all it offers. Spend time reading My Word for therein you will not only find guidance and instruction in righteousness but also peace of mind. Spend time on those things with eternal rewards, those things that have eternal purposes. Many things the world offers do not profit. We must be discerning, seeking God to know the false and fake from the truth and righteousness of God.

The fire of My Glory will fill the hearts and minds of My saints. You will see My Glory manifest even in the midst of chaos, confusion, lies and liars. I AM will not abandon My people. Together we will triumph against ha satan and his ilk. Do not abandon your post, do not grow weary or disillusioned. (In Bible reading this week Holy Spirit illuminated the last line in Isaiah 37:4 to me: "lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left). Sobering words since, at least to me, this indicated that some of the remnant has become weak, weary; fed up and just gave up. 

The LORD is clear: My Ways are not your ways, nor your ways My ways. We must walk by faith in our LORD God and King and trust that He does indeed know what He is doing. More will fall. Those who have cursed Me and My people will fall. None will escape My Word. Expect the mighty to fall. Those who stand against My people, My will and My ways. 

See beyond the natural into the spiritual. I am doing a great work in the nations of the world. My Word will not be silenced! As children of The King, rise to the occasion, stand strong. Declare My Glory, be bold, courageous, faithful. See with spiritual eyes and be amazed. Declare, decree His righteousness His justice into every situation surrounding you, your family, your state, your nation. Speak into every circumstance His Word.  Take the sword of the Spirit and decree His will will be done on earth as it is done in heaven!!!

Live in expectation of the coming of My Glory into your life.

We must walk by faith and shout victory even in the midst of trials, tribulation, setbacks and sanctions. Never give up and never give in to the powers of darkness.  We win in the end.

..let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the LORD Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. Colossians 3

The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness...Romans 1

Many nations of the world have taken a stand against God. Evil abounds, darkness designed to remove all light from the lives of the people who have taken all the world has to offer, and desire even more grips tightly the soul of the nation. Willingly surrendering sovereignty, freedom, peace and godliness; millions embrace perversion, lies, liars; going from bad to worse. Deceiving and being deceived. 

Pray into My plans and purposes; seek Me for guidance, wisdom, discernment and strength to endure the onslaught of evil that is coming to America and other nations of the world. Time, much time has been given to those who grope in darkness, time to repent to turn away from sin and follow God yet still millions remain distant, disengaged, defiant and disinterested.

What will it take for the nations of the world to turn? What must happen before you see what has befallen your nation and seek Me? What must occur before you repent of your sins, recognize the sin in your life, in your nation and seek forgiveness found only in the Person of Christ Jesus the LORD?

America needs God. America needs God more than at any other time in her history. We are in a spiritual battle for the souls of man.  Look around, see how far your nation has fallen from God and His Word. Hard words, but these are hard days and will continue to get harder and harder as 2024 moves ahead. Do not be content with the common, accepted or easy ways of the world. Do not attempt to fight spiritual battles with carnal weapons. (see Ephesians 6) Be challenged to go higher, to embrace more of God' Word, more of God' ways. 

Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, “He yearns jealously over the spirit that He has made to dwell in us”? But He gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. James 4

Darkness has enveloped the entire world in chaos and confusion. The stage is being set, players have begun to take their position. Each knows their assignment, each has been well trained in the art of deception, chaos and confusion while My people perish for lack of knowledge.

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. 2 Timothy 3

As time continues to move forward, wars and rumors of wars increase. Antisemitism advances at an alarming pace, lawlessness abounds and life goes on as usual for most of North America and around the world. But God will not be mocked.  

Our times are in His hand, determined from the foundation of the universe when and where we would come into the world. A time to be born...a time to die...all ordained by God. For such a time as this you have been called. I will not give you more than you can bear. With My help My guidance you will finish your course well giving glory, honor and praise to My Name.  If you have faith the size of a mustard seed you can..!!  Remember a mustard seed starts smalls but becomes a magnificent tree. 

Trouble not with the things of the world. Trouble not, but lean on Me. In My Father' house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for all who will call on The Name of the LORD. Keep alert for many trials await your nation, but you will not be forsaken nor abandoned. Remember;

He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His Truth shall be your shield and buckler.  You shall not be afraid....Psalm 91 

Nothing will be impossible for you as faith grows and strength increases. Strength in Me and My Word. Strength in self, system, man, machine, politician, platform will quickly erode leaving behind a fatalistic mindset, disillusionment, hopelessness opening the door to the hordes of hell. Know that apart from Me you are weak, helpless and useless against the wiles and tricks of these powerful forces of evil. Stand strong, be bold, courageous and ask yourself... 

What shall we say about such wonderful things as these?  If God is for us, who can ever be against us? Since He did not spare even His own Son but gave Him up for us all, won’t He also give us everything else? Who dares accuse us whom God has chosen for His own? No one—for God Himself has given us right standing with Himself. Who then will condemn us? No one—for Christ Jesus died for us and was raised to life for us, and He is sitting in the place of honor at God’s right hand, pleading for us. Romans 8

Hope and help come from God. His power, His Truth will guide our hearts and minds....we need only to believe!

If you have chosen to stand on The Word of God satan hates you because of it. Resist him and continue to resist him. He does not give up easily and his desire is to wear you down and wear you out. 

Stand on My Word, resist the devil and he has to flee.  Refuse his attacks, his accusations, his temptations. Refuse to be a pawn in his game against Me and My creation. Even when the battle is fierce, stand on My Word. Rejoice! Praise Me. Paul tells us in Romans that we can rejoice when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance.

My children have a hope the world does not share, nor do they care. The world is so wrapped up, enthralled in this hectic life they don't see the eternal, only the chaos and confusion of the now. Believe in Me in spite of what you see going on around you. Believe in Me regardless of what you hear from the media. 

But let the godly rejoice. Let them be glad in God’s presence. Let them be filled with joy. Sing praises to God and to His Name! Sing loud praises to Him who rides on the clouds. His Name is the LORD—rejoice in His presence! Psalm 68

Love life, but love Me more. Recognize Who I AM, see Me as your Provider. Acknowledge it is from My hand blessings flow. Be thankful for all the good and use the bad, the troubling, the painful as a catalyst for rejoicing and praise. In all things give Me praise. (NOT FOR ALL THINGS, but IN all things.)  

Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4

Hope and help come from God. His power, His truth will guide our hearts and minds; we need only believe in the goodness, the greatness, the grace, mercy and love of our LORD God, Jehovah Jireh, our Provider.   You are loved, praise Him.

Rejoice in the LORD always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Philippians 4:4

 "Man' ways have polluted My world" says the LORD. Indeed earth is groaning under the weight of man' sin.

Do not be content with the status quo. Resist compromise, embrace truth and righteousness. Allow no unclean thing to proceed from your mouth or take root in your heart.  Walk as children of The Light. Refuse to grope in darkness. 

Who among you fears the LORD and obeys the word of His servant? Let the one who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the Name of the LORD and rely on their God. Isaiah 50

It continues to grow darker. Nations refusing to repent have taken a stand for evil and do not understand what will soon befall those who turn away from the One True and Living God to worship a false religion filled with lies, deception, chaos and confusion. Turn Away says the LORD, Turn Away! Turn away from evil and glorify God!

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of Light...Ephesians 5:8  The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned. Isaiah 9:2

The darkness that came on April 8 was physical darkness. Spiritual darkness has now begun to envelope those who have taken a stand against God. My judgment is swift, My ways are perfect says the LORD.

Pentecost has come, we have Holy Spirit to guide, direct, give wisdom and discernment. Call upon Him and stand strong, be bold, and be prepared. Grasp Truth, refuse to compromise; refuse to bend or bow to what you know is false and fake. I AM with you. Trust Me and rest in the goodness of your God.

Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. For the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and He also has become my salvation." Isaiah 12:2

Rough, troubling, horrific days are coming. What is coming must be great, for great is the sin of this once proud nation....and the world. 

Bonhoeffer spoke truth, most refused to listen. Now in 2024 most are still refusing to listen. Soon My voice will ring across the universe. It will not be ignored. My Word will be spoken.

If man will not listen their rejection will not silence My voice. Speak My children, speak into your world. Speak My Word, do not be silenced. If no one listens, speak. My creation groans under the weight of man' sin. Speak to My creation. Shout Victory. Your mission is to speak. Allow My Word to accomplish what it has been sent out to do.

Don’t worry about the wicked or envy those who do wrong. For like grass, they soon fade away. Like spring flowers, they soon wither. Psalm 37

Disobedience is common to man. Disobedience from the Garden to the grave will be the plight of man. Only as you completely, and I say "completely" surrender to Me will you become complete. You will never, never be without sin for man is born into sin, but with each sin I have made a way of escape. My cross.  Look to Me, be complete in Me. Rely on Me and where sin abounds remember grace does much more abound. Cling tightly to me. 

Commit everything you do to the LORD. Trust Him, and He will help you. He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn, and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun. Psalm 37

A light  glows brightly in darkness. It is received with gladness. Hope too is welcome in the midst of hopelessness. Be the light - share hope with those who grope in darkness without hope; hopeless, angry and alone. Be the light My child, be the light.

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble. Therefore we will not fear...Psalm 46

Claim My Word. Stand in faith against incoming chaos and conflict. Allow no circumstances to hinder your journey, your walk of faith. Trust in My goodness and rest in My peace. Know you are loved.

I watched a movie from the 1940' 'Mortal Storm.'  Later that same evening, Holy Spirit spoke; The Mortal Storm for America has already begun. Spiritual chaos is rampant on the streets. The government is in mortal danger of destroying the nation. Your nation is being taken over by an enemy being touted, designed by millions as asylum seekers.

I will pronounce My judgments against them for all their wickedness, because they have forsaken Me to burn incense to other gods and to worship the works of their own hands. Jeremiah 1

As the nation is being destroyed from within keep watch and pray. 

Listen to me and make up your minds to honor My Name,” says the LORD of Heaven’s Armies, “or I will bring a terrible curse against you. I will curse even the blessings you receive. Indeed, I have already cursed them, because you have not taken My warning to heart. Malachi 2

Much power comes from the heavenlies when My children pray and declare My Word over every situation and circumstance. You are not helpless in the battle. You have a weapon of mass destruction to aim at evil. Use it! My Word your sword. Use it and see kingdoms fall and captives set free.

Do not be taken in by anyone who has an agenda. Those who speak thus will speak what advances their cause, what helps them appear better than they are. This is true in politics and in pulpits. The LORD of life continues to rule and reign. Do not be dismayed by anything that is seen or heard. All My ways are righteousness. Continue in faith, believe for the impossible. I will make a way where there seems to be no way. Make haste to follow My Way, My Word, My Will.  

Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we trust in the Name of the LORD our God. Psalm 20   (chariots, horses - governments, possessions, positions; anything but God).

Trust in the goodness of your God. I AM Shalom, I will bring peace to those who trust in Me. Great danger, heartache, challenges and chaos has come to America. Prepare! Days are growing shorter, darkness extends itself, time is slipping away and My people are not prepared.
