Zephaniah 2:2-3 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD's anger come upon you. Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD's anger.
Hebrews 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
My heart is stirred by the Holy Spirit because there are so many Lukewarm, neither cold nor hot people which the Lord says He will spue them out of His mouth.
Revelation 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
We must remember Jesus is the door, He is the building, and He is our refuge like unto Noah. If He says He will spue you out then you will be on the outside of the door when the storm comes. I don't know about you but this makes me really sad to realize so many are slumbering and yawning themselves straight into the storm of fire. So many will be running around wanting to know what is happening.
A short time ago my wife and I were driving on a freeway heading west and of course a short ways away a lot of people were driving east. I then saw a vision from the Lord. I saw behind us a fire that was very high and ran as far as you could see north and south. A witness came from the Lord; they are driving straight into the fire not knowing they are going straight into destruction. They know nothing of it neither can they see it. Yet I know that they also have the same opportunity as others to seek the Lord to see if they would be doing right and in the way they should be going.
The Lord's people in what ever nation you are in or whether in the churches of out of the churches. We all have a responsibility to do and that is to not let other people do you're seeking for you but seek the Lord yourself where ever you are. This is very important because the Lord says many of these places man has built will be destroyed. This was shown me by the Lord in an event that happened to me.
About a year before the Lord removed me by pressing me into the wilderness. I went to a school the company sent me to. It was in a large Midwest City and the school was to last a full week. The Holy Spirit was so pressing me to seek Him in prayer that it was hard for me to keep my mind on the schooling. I spent every noon hour and evening in my motel room on my face in prayer. I thought that since I was so active in my church that perhaps the Lord wanted to give me some revelation or lesson to take back to them. The church I was a member of was a large church that gave witness to born again and baptism in the Holy Spirit. I was certain it was a proper church but this was the word the Lord gave me on the very last day.
Matthew 24:2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
I was shocked, stunned and had a hard time with it but this was the word of the Lord. The days that followed the Lord began to tell me many things and if spoken no one believed it. I stayed there for a time until the Lord pressed me to leave. Because of these things it is imperative that we make sure we know we are in the right place and to do this we'll have to seek the Lord, each and everyone of us. I know some dear saints who are called to fight a good fight of faith and witness on the inside of a church or churches so because of this we must not judge them because some are commanded to do so for the sake of others. Therefore who are we to judge another Mans servant? We must leave that judgment to the Lord, but we all must be ready to respond at anytime to the leading of the Holy Spirit.
Be sure of this prophecy, when the harvest begins we will be called on to leave the field. First it will be a calling from your Lord for you to respond willingly to follow Him to a higher place in Him, even the very refuge like unto Noah and his ark. A building God will build though the days be full of tribulation. Now when this period of time has been accomplished then will a compelling work be done, two witnesses will be sent with a backing of a great people. As it was in the days when two witnesses were sent to Sodom to take Lot by the hand and lead them out, so shall it be. This must be done to complete the ingathering. You that can hear let them hear.
Isaiah 13:1-4 The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see. Lift ye up a banner upon the high mountain, exalt the voice unto them, shake the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles. I have commanded my sanctified ones, I have also called my mighty ones for mine anger, even them that rejoice in my highness. The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the LORD of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.
Rev 14:6-8 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
Malachi 4:1-3 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.
Decisions are being made and will be made whether you will be among the wise or the foolish. The false prophets are working very hard to get the attention of people. Some come across with a bang that comes short of being fulfilled, thus hurting the faith of many. Others tell them to take their ease, sit back and take a nap. They say we are not even going to be here when the wrath of God comes.
Thanks are to God through our Lord Jesus Christ for those of you whom the Lord calls the wise. Though I am sad over the foolish who will be on the outside of the door and I pray for everyone daily. I rejoice because of the wise and the work the Lord will do through you not only giving to every nation the word of the kingdom in power and great glory, but in bringing in the remaining of the ingathering.
I exhort you, don't let down your guard but seek the Lord daily listening to the teachings of the Holy Spirit. Because of the visions the Lord gave to me in the last 30 years and seeing some pretty frightful things. It is no wonder many will die just from fear alone.
One of those visions is, I was standing in a house looking out a window. Outside were army personnel that looked like Nazis going from house to house looking for Jews. The same things they did during world war ll. Only these Jews are not the same as then. These Jews are Christians, the same as the apostle Paul speaks of that make up the Spiritual Nation of Israel. I spoke of this Spiritual Nation in the first article.
Romans 2:28-29 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Now these Nazis were searching for people like me but Praise God they couldn't find my door. The only reason they couldn't find it was because of the Power of God fulfilling His promises. The same searching went on in the first generation when the Jews with the help of Rome rounded up and slaughtered God's people. Dear saints this same thing will happen in the last generation only in a greater scale. A time of trouble such as never was since there was a nation and never be like it ever again.
Daniel 12:1-4 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever. But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.
The time of trouble you see in the above verse is connected to Jacob's trouble you read about in Jeremiah 30:5-7 For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
The Lord wants you to see that Jacob's trouble has two parts, two tribulations, one greater then the other. The first tribulation of Jacob's trouble is a birthing of a Man Child spoken to you in Revelation 12:1-2 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars and she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
Notice in the verse in Jeremiah that a man is in travail to bring forth a child as a woman. This Jacob is that spiritual nation the Lord has been telling you about. The twelve stars speaks of twelve tribes. The natural nation which is first has twelve tribes, the spiritual nation which comes after it also has twelve tribes. That which is natural is always first then the spiritual. This is why the spiritual nation has a change in the names of the tribes. It is you. You will be in tribulation and pain when the harvest begins to bring forth that child in you, (you in Him and Him in you). This is a mystery but speaks of you being called into perfection. You made ready for the war, the great tribulation spoken to you in Daniel 12. Two times of trouble,( tribulation) one greater than the other. Jesus spoke to you of these two tribulations in Matthew 24:29-30 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Now there is more to the bringing forth of the Man Child of which I am sure the Lord will talk to you further about it when He so desires. The Word that is given to you here is so you will see and hear with understanding of many scriptures that have not been seen as they should be by the Lord's people as you prepare for that destruction that is coming.
One of the brethren,
Branch
