Pharisees

   My children, it is time for you to be examining your hearts. Many of you have self righteous attitudes towards others because  your own faith is strong and theirs is not developed yet. This is a stench in My nostrils.

   Do you not know that a Pharisee can only drive unchanged hearts far from Me? Do you not know what destruction your attitudes cause? Many souls have been won over by the enemy because of these attitudes among My People.

   Many of My Children wonder why they are not being used to win many souls for My Kingdom, and this is why. It is your pridefulness. It is your self-righteous attitude. It is your air of superiority.

   I desire you would examine your hearts and cast down those haughty thoughts now that I may use you more fully.  

Luke 18:9-14

• ⁹ And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:
• ¹⁰ Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.
• ¹¹ The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.
• ¹² I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
• ¹³ And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner.
• ¹⁴ I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Sadness

    My Children, you have felt My Tears of sadness in your spirits for what is coming for the inhibiters of the earth. Much woe has been planned, not only in the judgments on the wicked, but Satan has also planned much agony for mankind. He knows he has but a little time and he desires to punish all of My Children, to make their time a misery.

   When you feel My Tears rise up in you, cry out to Me for those souls that will otherwise be lost in this end time, My People. I have called you to intercede for those who do not yet know Me. Do not look upon this as a small task, for it is the highest honor to share My Heart and to intercede at My Request.

   It is not My Will that any should perish, I desire all would come to know Me. Many more souls will be saved if you will but do this one thing – when you feel My Sadness, Pray. Pray and ask Me to save those who do not yet know Me. The rewards for doing this shall be very great for you. If you will offer up these prayers for Me, I will answer prayers for you.  

Revelation 12:12

• ¹² Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

1 Timothy 2:1

• 1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

Isaiah 59:16

• ¹⁶ And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.

Hebrews 7:25-26

• ²⁵ Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
• ²⁶ For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;

John 3:16-19

• ¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
• ¹⁷ For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
• ¹⁸ He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
• ¹⁹ And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

The Time of Jacob’s Trouble

   My children, you must prepare. The Time of My Servant Jacob’s Trouble quickly approaches and you are not ready. Ready your hearts, for what you see shall be grievous indeed. Ready your minds to survive in a time like no other. Ready your weapons, for you will need them to fight.

   You have seen what is coming in My Holy Word. Quiet your spirits and remain focused on Me and all will be well. I alone can protect you in this time. For those who see this time, there is work I have called you to do.

   First, search your hearts and know if there be any darkness therein. Before a man can judge the mote in another’s eye, he must first examine his own eyes. If you are to be the light in your world, you must indeed be that light, and not darkness. The enemy comes to tempt you now more than ever before, as he desires you would stumble and fall. He desires My people would lose hope and turn away from Me.

   I am calling My People to bring hope in that time to those who do not know Me and to those who begin falling away from Me. I am calling you to succor them through that time that they be not lost. Prepare.

   Remember, the path of peace is to keep your mind stayed on Me. I am with you in all that comes. Do not lose hope.    

Jeremiah 30:7

• ⁷ 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.

Daniel 12:1

• ¹ 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.

Psalm 91:1-7

• ¹ He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
• ² I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
• ³ Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
• ⁴ He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
• ⁵ Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
• ⁶ Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
• ⁷ A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Matthew 7:3-4

• ³ And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
• ⁴ Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

Matthew 5:14-16

• ¹⁴ Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
• ¹⁵ Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
• ¹⁶ Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Isaiah 26:3-4

• ³ Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
• ⁴ Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:

Prepare, America!

   America has chosen darkness over light. She has chosen her ways over Mine. She has chosen sin over righteousness. Yea, even great sin. She clings to her abominations and promotes them to other nations. Her defiance of Me, the One who made her great, is a stench in My nostrils.

   Because America has chosen darkness over light, I will give her over to darkness. I will call forth her enemies to turn out the lights in America and America will be cloaked in darkness for all to see.

   I called you to repentance, America, but you would not. Your haughty spirit has now spread to other nations and your abominations have overflowed your borders and defiled others. I will give you over to the evil and perversion you have chosen over Me, and it will be your destruction.

   Since you have not chosen what is right, but you have chosen evil over good, evil will fill your borders. Your enemies will trample you under foot. They will take your women and kill your children. They will spare none, young or old. They will defile your land as they go, eating your crops and ruining your flocks. Famine will abound and the people of America will be turned into the streets as their homes will no longer be safe havens.

   Prepare, America, for I am calling forth your enemies to destroy you. No longer will you be called beautiful or free, for I will give you over to them and none (of the wicked) shall be able to stand against Me, the Holy One of Israel. As you have shown no mercy to others, no mercy shall be shown to you.

   As you have allowed those within your borders to slaughter the innocent, so shall your beauty be slaughtered and you will not rise again. Long has the innocent blood of those you killed cried out to Me, but I am longsuffering, giving you much time to repent, yet you have not repented. You are haughty and scornful, wicked and perverse and I will abide you no longer.

John 3:16-19

• ¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
• ¹⁷ For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
• ¹⁸ He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
• ¹⁹ And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

Ezekiel 14:13-19

• ¹³ Son of man, when the land sinneth against me by trespassing grievously, then will I stretch out mine hand upon it, and will break the staff of the bread thereof, and will send famine upon it, and will cut off man and beast from it:
• ¹⁴ Though these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, they should deliver but their own souls by their righteousness, saith the Lord God.
• ¹⁵ If I cause noisome beasts to pass through the land, and they spoil it, so that it be desolate, that no man may pass through because of the beasts:
• ¹⁶ Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord God, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters; they only shall be delivered, but the land shall be desolate.
• ¹⁷ Or if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off man and beast from it:
• ¹⁸ Though these three men were in it, as I live, saith the Lord God, they shall deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only shall be delivered themselves.
• ¹⁹ Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my fury upon it in blood, to cut off from it man and beast:

Jeremiah 25:4-6

• ⁴ And the Lord hath sent unto you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear.
• ⁵ They said, Turn ye again now every one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the Lord hath given unto you and to your fathers for ever and ever:
• ⁶ And go not after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke me not to anger with the works of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.

Going Home

   My children, the time is approaching when I will call many of you home to Me suddenly.

   Look closely at your hearts, at your motivations, at what matters most to you. Ask Me to show you any place something is amiss. Be sure you are ready. I am orchestrating events for your overall benefit.

   Be sure you have everything in order for what is coming.

NOTE: When the Lord was speaking this word to me, He did not specify He meant the Merciful Ones. I feel in this word He is talking about all His people. In my spirit, I saw many people being called home at one time, not in a rapture type event, but in some other type event, but this is all the detail I got on it although I did feel it was a kind protection from the horrors to come.

James 1:12

• ¹² Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

Isaiah 57:1-2

• 1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.
• ² He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.

Luke 12:19-21

• ¹⁹ And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
• ²⁰ But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
• ²¹ So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

Soon Time Will End

   I am calling to the wicked to repent of their wickedness and turn to Me. I am drawing men to Me, that they might know Me before it is too late for them. Pray their hearts would be opened to Me, My children, for very soon time will end and there will be no more chance for them to turn to righteousness.

   It is not My Will that any should perish, but few men do My Will. It is not My Will that the world be filled with evil. It is your enemy’s will and men living for themselves that have caused this.

   Now is the time for much prayer and intercession as the last of these souls that can be saved turns to Me, for the end is upon all men and the judgments will happen quickly when they begin. Once they have begun, men will be occupied with surviving what is happening and few will look to Me to save them.

   Pray, My children. Pray for these lost souls for if you could see what is their destination if they do not turn to Me, you would not cease praying for them. Pray, that I may save some while there is yet time for soon time is no more.

1 Timothy 2:1

• ¹ I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

John 3:16-19

• ¹⁶ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
• ¹⁷ For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
• ¹⁸ He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
• ¹⁹ And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

1 Thessalonians 5:17

• ¹⁷ Pray without ceasing.

Allow Me To Reign

   Many of My people do not realize or do not believe that I send words through My Prophets to succor you during the most difficult of times. If you heed the instructions in My Words, those difficult times will be far easier for you than for others.­ This is one of the ways I allow you to know Me.

   There are times coming in the future when I will have taken My Prophets home and you shall have no more words from Me. Hide the words in your heart now that you may recall them in times to come. If you will know Me now as your Lord, allowing Me to be Lord in every area of your life, those times will not be difficult for you as they will be for many. Those times are so those who do not know Me can call out to Me and surrender their lives and wills into My Hands. So they may also know Me.

   You desire to know more of what is coming, but there is much you cannot know. There is much the enemy cannot know, for your good. Concentrate yourself on knowing Me and you will recognize My Hand in those times. If you know Me, you will know what is true and what is false in those times. If you know Me, you will know the way to provision in those times.

   I am telling you now how to survive then and have what you need. Allow Me to reign over every part of your life. Hold nothing back from Me, and make your way prosperous.

Amos 8:11-12

• ¹¹ Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:

Psalm 119:105

• ¹⁰⁵ Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

Matthew 7:21-23

• ²¹ Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
• ²² Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
• ²³ And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Genesis 24:40

• ⁴⁰ And he said unto me, The Lord, before whom I walk, will send his angel with thee, and prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father's house:

The Wicked in the Time of Darkness

   I was praying and telling the Lord I feel sorry for those who will be left on the earth when the grid is gone and there is no electricity and no law enforcement in America in the time coming, when He spoke to me this short message.

   These are they who have persecuted My people, who have defamed My Holy Name, who have stolen from My Sheep. There will be no mercy in that time for those because they refuse to repent and refuse to acknowledge Me as God.

Jeremiah 25:4-7

• ⁴ And the Lord hath sent unto you all his servants the prophets, rising early and sending them; but ye have not hearkened, nor inclined your ear to hear.
• ⁵ They said, Turn ye again now every one from his evil way, and from the evil of your doings, and dwell in the land that the Lord hath given unto you and to your fathers for ever and ever:
• ⁶ And go not after other gods to serve them, and to worship them, and provoke me not to anger with the works of your hands; and I will do you no hurt.
• ⁷ Yet ye have not hearkened unto me, saith the Lord; that ye might provoke me to anger with the works of your hands to your own hurt.

Jeremiah 25:34-35

• ³⁴ Howl, ye shepherds, and cry; and wallow yourselves in the ashes, ye principal of the flock: for the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished; and ye shall fall like a pleasant vessel.
• ³⁵ And the shepherds shall have no way to flee, nor the principal of the flock to escape.

Jeremiah 50:6

• ⁶ My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their restingplace.

Revelation 6:7-9

• ⁷ And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
• ⁸ And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
• ⁹ And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

Do Not Let the Enemy Deceive You

   Many of My children believe they are ready to fight with Me upon My return, but I tell you many of you are not ready. How can you fight evil in the world when you have not overcome the evil in your own life?

   How can you overcome evil with Me when you have not conquered the evil in your own actions, in your own words? How can you battle an enemy you align yourselves with?

   My precious children, I desire you would indeed be ready to fight with Me when that time comes, but you must first overcome the evil in your own life, in your own households. Only then can you look beyond to fight on another level.

   Do not let the enemy deceive you into thinking you are ready when you are not.

Genesis 4:7

• ⁷ If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.

Galatians 5:19-21

• ¹⁹ Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
• ²⁰ Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
• ²¹ Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Colossians 3:5-6

• ⁵ Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
• ⁶ For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:

Romans 7:11-12

• ¹¹ For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
• ¹² Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

Revelation 20:10

• ¹⁰ And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

Courage Will Be the Difference

   Courage will make the difference in how you live out the last days, my children. Courage will be the line between those who do mighty exploits and those who do not. Those who are bold as lions to speak My Holy Name and My Holy Word in the face of all that comes against you will do mighty exploits and be well fed in those days. Those who are fearful will die in fear and lack and have little reward.

   You choose which way you will live the end of days. You choose whether you will die and be honored in heaven or if you die in fear. You choose the path you will take.

   Build your faith. If you truly know Me now – know Me as King, know Me as Lord, know Me as provider, healer, friend – you will be able to stand boldly in those days.

  If your faith is weak, your courage will be also. How much do you believe? Is your faith strong enough if your faith is all you have to live on?

Deuteronomy 31:6

• ⁶ Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

• ⁹ Have 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.

Matthew 17:20

• ²⁰ And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Revelation 2:10

• ¹⁰ Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.

  

Weapons Unmatched

   My children, I have given to you weapons unmatched in the earth. I have given to you the Blood of My Son which nothing can stand against. Many have tried to discredit the ultimate sacrifice of My Son. Many call My Word a lie.

   Unbelievers say such a thing is not possible – that a man dies and resurrects as God, that His Blood can heal, deliver and protect.  I will not deal easy with these when the end comes. Do not listen to them My children, for the Evil One controls their lips. Do not let them steal your salvation from you, for it is all you will have when the end comes. Do not let them take your crown.

   I have given you the weapon of My Holy Word. Men have attempted to discredit My Holy Word and these (who attempt to discredit) I have reserved special judgments for. Do not allow the foolishness of unbelievers to lead you astray from My Word. Do not believe the lies of the enemy who desires to steal your soul from My Kingdom.

   Let us fight the enemy together. I have given you weapons no man can stand against. 

   When My Son returns to the earth, will He find faith? Will He find faith in you?

Psalm 2:1

• 1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?

2 Corinthians 10:4-6

• ⁴ (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;)
• ⁵ Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
• ⁶ And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

Luke 18:7-8

• 7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
• 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

Revelation 3:10-11

• ¹⁰ Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
• ¹¹ Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Chosen to Fight

   My children do not despair when you see things in the world being destroyed according to My Holy Word. Do not despair. Do not despair as you see many men’s lives taken at once for this also has been foretold, but rejoice that the end of all evil is coming.

   Rejoice that you see these things that many men have desired to see. Rejoice that you have been chosen to fight alongside me in these battles. Rejoice because the enemy cannot win for the end has already been foretold. Rejoice for you have been called to be a Warrior of Truth.

   Warriors of Truth will stand for My Word. Warriors of Truth will walk in righteousness and preach righteousness. Warriors of Truth will spread righteousness in the midst of the evil the enemy has created. Do not despair as you see him destroy laws and try to change times but rejoice for the end of all wickedness is just ahead.

Revelation 6:8

• ⁸ And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Galatians 3:1

• ¹ O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?

• ¹⁴ Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;

2 Thessalonians 2:10-12

• ¹⁰ And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
• ¹¹ And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
• ¹² That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Matthew 13:15-17

• ¹⁵ For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
• ¹⁶ But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
• ¹⁷ For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.
•  

Gird Up

   My children, gird up your loins now for this time begins and there is much work to be done, for My people shall not lay down with the enemy. My people shall not bow to his destructions. My people shall fight!

   My people shall fight in this battle, not weakly give in. My people shall stand for truth and stand in the righteous path and fight for what is right. My people who are not cowards shall stand and fight. They will pay a price on earth to be sure, but they shall be honored in heaven forevermore for these battles coming. And the rewards shall be very great for when my people fight, I grant them the desires of their hearts. The rewards shall be endless.

   They shall know peace now and in the world to come, great joy forever.

   Gird up if you are Mine, and fight! Do not give in to the enemy's taunts. Do not give in to the enemy's fear tactics - believe in Me and stand your ground.

   Believe in Me and fight for what is right. Stand in truth and stand for My truth for the enemy seeks to take it and you from your world. I give you My Word that he shall not prevail, but you must fight.

Rise up, my people. Rise up.

Jeremiah 1:17

• ¹⁷ Thou therefore gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee: be not dismayed at their faces, lest I confound thee before them.

Exodus 15:3

• ³ The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name.

Revelation 16:14

• ¹⁴ For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

Psalm 18:39

• ³⁹ For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me.

Ephesians 6:10-13

• ¹⁰ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
• ¹¹ Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
• ¹² For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
• ¹³ Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

I Have Called

   Know ye, that some of you I have called for such a time as this and you shall do mighty exploits in My Holy Name. 

   Some of you are called to lead others. Some of you are called to slay the enemy. Some of you I have called to fight spiritual battles. Some of you I have called to support kingdom works that others may be sent to dark places. Some of you are called to provide for them along the way. Some of you I have called to intercede many hours each day that these (those sent into dark places – missionary types) be protected and lost souls be saved.

   Step in to all I have called you and obey Me fully. Do not hesitate. Do not fear.

NOTE: I wondered why the Lord started this word with “Know ye” so I checked to see if there were any scriptures with this wording. And I found most notably Luke 21:31, which I have included below.

Esther 4:14

• ¹⁴ For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?

Luke 21:30-32  

• ³⁰ When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.
• ³¹ So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
• ³² Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

Your Path

   My children, take care where you let your path lead you now, for the things you do now will determine the path you will take through what is coming. Those who are obedient now will have an easy path then or be taken before the horrors arrive. Those who are rebellious now will have a very difficult time then and there will be no help for them.

   I have told you in My Holy Word that obedience brings blessing and rebellion and sin bring misery. The choice is always yours, but at no time has it been more important than now.

   Keep your eyes on the prize, for you shall soon collect that prize.

Proverbs 3:5-7

• ⁵ Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
• ⁶ In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
• ⁷ Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

Romans 6:16

• ¹⁶ Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

Job 36:10-12

• ¹⁰ He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.
• ¹¹ If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.
• ¹² But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.

They Will Be in Lack

   My children, what you do now is determining the path you take through what is coming. Those who keep their thoughts on Me will have a much easier path. Those who refuse Me now and continue to reject My Holy Word and My Ways will find the times coming to be more difficult than anything they have ever experienced.

   I will allow those who reject Me to be in lack and intense fear in what is coming. I will allow the enemy to buffet them. I will not send them comfort or provision unless they cry out to Me and turn from their wicked unbelief.

   For those whose mind is stayed on Me, I will rescue you. I will provide for you, and I will guide you to safety. For you, there is nothing to fear if you do not deny Me.

Psalm 22:26

²⁶ The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the Lord that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.

Proverbs 10:3

³ The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish: but he casteth away the substance of the wicked.

Psalm 107:9

⁹ For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

Psalm 91:1-11

¹ He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

² I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

³ Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

⁴ He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

⁵ Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

⁶ Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

⁷ A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

⁸ Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

⁹ Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

¹⁰ There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

¹¹ For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
