If They Refuse

   There are many in the world who still refuse to acknowledge Me, their Creator. I will deal with this wickedness and unbelief as the world begins to fail (I saw He meant when the natural order of everything begins failing).

   As I begin to deal with them, I will show them they cannot save themselves. I will show them nothing is guaranteed. I will begin to touch their possessions, their loved ones, whatever their security is. I will teach them how much they need Me.

   Pray for those you know who still refuse Me, for this will be very difficult and painful for them if they refuse to come to Me before this occurs.

Proverbs 6:14-15

• ¹⁴ Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.
• ¹⁵ Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

Psalm 34:21-22

• ²¹ Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
• ²² The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.

Proverbs 1:25-31

• ²⁵ But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
• ²⁶ I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
• ²⁷ When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
• ²⁸ Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
• ²⁹ For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the Lord:
• ³⁰ They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
• ³¹ Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

As Evil Increases

   My children, as light and darkness continue to increase inside each person, things will change rapidly in your world. Only one – light or darkness – can dominate. For a season, you will observe the struggle inside those you know who have a like (similar) amount of each. One will win, and you will see the result become very evident.

   In those with more light, as light increases they will become more selfless, more giving, and less concerned about worldly matters and pursuits. They are becoming more like Me.

   In those with more darkness, as the darkness inside them increases they will become more selfish, more violent, more deceptive and more concerned about worldly things and pleasures.

   As evil increases in your world, it will take hold and it will quickly escalate. Teens will commit violent acts never witnessed before. Others will commit mass violence like nothing the world has ever prepared for. Know when you see this that Satan is among you. He has come down in great wrath, because his time is very short.

   I desire in this time My people would cling to My Word and walk in My ways. Keep yourselves from sin that the devil not be given place in you, for his desire is to destroy you and all those you love.

   Walk carefully, My children. Time is very short now and there is no room for compromising. 

  

Revelation 12:7-17

• ⁷ And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
• ⁸ And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
• ⁹ And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
• ¹⁰ And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
• ¹¹ And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
• 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.
• ¹³ And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
• ¹⁴ And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
• ¹⁵ And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
• ¹⁶ And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
• ¹⁷ And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 4:26-28

• ²⁶ Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
• ²⁷ Neither give place to the devil.
• ²⁸ Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.

Prayer for Wayward Children

The Lord gave me a prayer this morning for parents to pray over their wayward children. It is especially powerful for praying over children who are in or who are attracted to the drugs & gang lifestyles.

Please share this prayer with as many other parents as you can. The Lord spoke this morning that Satan is after our children more now than ever before.

The text of the prayer is shown below and also posted in the prayers tab on the JPH site. At the end of the prayer is a recording of me praying the prayer:

Prayer for a Wayward Child

Lord God in heaven, I praise Your Holy Name. I know in so many things, Lord, You are my only hope. You are bigger than any problem, You are greater than any enemy. I know You delight in showing Yourself mighty on my behalf.

Lord, You see the situation with this wayward child. I have prayed and he/she is still going down the wrong path, Lord, but I know You are more than able, Lord, to set my child right. I know You want to set him/her set right even more than I do! I know You love him/her even more than I do, Lord, so I bring this situation to You. Lord, I’m going to take my hands off of this and watch You work. I’m expecting a miracle, Lord!

Lord, I know satan is trying to put my child in the pigpen, but I declare he will NOT GET MY CHILD! I know now he will have to fight YOU to do that, Lord, because I am giving this child to You and I know You will do whatever is necessary to save my child, Lord.

Lord, I ask you to rope my child into the sheep fold of Your people. I ask You, Lord, to do whatever is necessary to get my child saved, Lord – Save him/her from his/her habits and addictions, Lord – You are greater than ANY addiction, God, and I know ONE TOUCH from You and that addiction is NO MORE. I know You know what it will take to reach my child’s heart. Lord, even if You have to break their legs and wrap them around Your neck and carry them close to You as they heal to get them saved, do it Lord! Do it so they will go to heaven and not hell. Do it so they won’t become another statistic of the gang life, another statistic of the overdoses in the newspaper, Lord. NO!! My child shall live and NOT DIE in the mighty Name of Jesus!!! I know You won’t let satan have his way with him/her, Lord! Because I will not cease to pray, Lord, and I will not let you go until You bless my child!

Make my child fall in love with You and Your Word, increase them in the knowledge of You as You cover them with Your feathers, strengthen them against tragedies and lack, bond them to your Word. Teach him/her wisdom, Lord! Shower him/her in love and mercy, be his/her shield and buckler, Lord! Show him/her whatever he/she needs to see to cling to You and come out of his/her habits, addictions and the world’s ways, Lord.

I know You have given my child gifts and talents to use for Your Kingdom, Lord, and I pray You will stir up those gifts and draw my child into Kingdom work – I know he/she will have peace when he/she is fulfilling Your purpose for his/her life.

Lord, Your Word says if I decree a thing, it is established. I decree My child is saved. I decree My child is living a godly life for You. I decree My child is free of all bad habits and addictions. I decree my child is free of that dangerous lifestyle, free of lawlessness, free of any gang affiliations and protected by You, oh Lord, because I know You hear the fervent prayers of praying mamas and righteous men. And I know You answer when we pray in accordance with Your will, so I call it DONE, Lord, in Jesus Name!

Lord, I ask for the grace to keep my hands off of this situation while You work. Thank You, Lord.

Understanding Refining

   My children, as I begin refining you for what is coming, you may find it difficult to understand My ways. Many of you are not well versed in My Holy Word and that is why your understanding is lacking. If you will obey Me and become a student of My Word, your path shall be much easier.

   If you find yourself bewildered as this refining takes place, take counsel with those who have walked the righteous path longer than you. The more experienced of them are familiar with My refining methods.

   As a child frets when the parent disciplines it for running towards the road, so you may fret as I discipline you in order to teach you a better way. Draw closer to Me when this happens, for I will wrap you in My arms of love and comfort you.

Isaiah 48:10

10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.

Zechariah 13:8-9

8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the Lord, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.

9 And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The Lord is my God.

Malachi 3:1-3

1 Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts.

2 But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire, and like fullers' soap:

3 And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness.

Proverbs 4:7

7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.

Deuteronomy 8:2

2 And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no.

Hebrews 12:11

11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

Wrong Attitudes

   My people, I desire you would look deep into your hearts about what is coming. So many think they are ready when they are not, and you will panic when events begin. In your panic, run to me. Do not do as the gentiles do and begin taking from others, for I am your provider and I provide well for My own. If you take from others, you are your own provider.

   Many of My people have wrong attitudes in your hearts. I desire you would look deeply and correct these attitudes that you may hear Me more clearly. I desire you would see the darkness lurking there. I desire you would have more of Me and less of you, that I may bless you in greater measure.

   Spend this time to clear the darkness and wrong attitudes from your heart. Become focused on Me and making heaven your home. Be focused on My Word, for nothing else you store will provide for you as My Word will.

   Know Me as your provider – realize I provided your job, I provided your ability to work, I provided your lungs and the air you breathe. I provide everything you need, and I can provide all you need in what is coming, but you must learn to receive. For this reason, I am granting many of you the opportunity to be in need so you can learn this before the time is that you must know it.

   Be focused on Me. I am all you need.

Matthew 5:22

• ²² But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Romans 13:8-10

• ¹⁰ Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

James 1:2-4

• ³ Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
• ⁴ But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

1 Peter 4:12-19

• ¹² Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
• ¹³ But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
• ¹⁴ If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
• ¹⁵ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
• ¹⁶ Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
• ¹⁷ For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
• ¹⁸ And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?
• ¹⁹ Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.

Proverbs 3:26

• ²⁶ For the Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.

• ²³ For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
• ²⁴ Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Matthew 7:7-11

• ⁷ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
• ⁸ For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
• ⁹ Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
• ¹⁰ Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
• ¹¹ If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
