I was praying in the spirit on September 21, 2009 when I received this word:
“This is what I desire of you – that you would spend your hours lying before Me in intercession. There I will reveal My Glory to you. There I will reveal My Truths to you. There I will tell you what to do as the days grow dark and this world approaches the end.
“It is there I desire My People to be – ever seeking My Face and to do My Will, sharing My Heart for the lost. For did I not send My only begotten Son for just that purpose – to save the lost? To bring them back to Me?”
“It is here in My Presence that you will find peace. It is here that you will experience Me – here, crying out for those who do not know Me.”
“Lay aside the cares of this world, the thoughts about your needs. Did I not say in My Word to seek first My Kingdom and all these things you need would be added unto you? Why then do you worry so for what you will wear or what you will eat? Am I not a wealthy Father, well able to provide all you need and more? Am I not able to take care of you, My Little Flock?”
“Stop wandering and wailing in the world and focus on My Purpose – to save the lost, and you will find your every need met in the earth and much, much more!”
“I am calling out to My Intercessors – fall on your faces and cry out to Me! Wail for your lost loved ones, for your unsaved families and friends, for the lost you do not know! Call on My Name, the only name that can save them from destructions to come!”
“Cry out! Weep for them, My Children while there is yet time for them to be saved! There is no better use of your time. Come! Share My Heart!”
Isaiah 59:16: 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.
Job 42:10: And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
Prophetic words to lift you up and encourage you to move forward in your walk with Christ.

They Have Worshiped Other Gods Which Cannot Save or Deliver
I received this word in May of 2009.
I always keep My promises for I am a faithful and loving God, unlike the gods My People make of their paychecks, houses and investment accounts.
I shall surely show them they have worshiped gods which have neither power to save nor deliver them from the times to come when great darkness shall enfold this land. The time for My Bride to arise and shine is now. My Bride shall walk in truth and in holiness, in love and honor to one another and against all that is evil and not of Me.
Strive to enter in, My People! Strive to enter into this time of cleansing, of purging from My Bride all that is not of Me for I shall not receive those who fail to allow Me to purify them. Strive to enter in to the peace of rest in Me where you shall find rest for your souls.
My Word is absolute and there is no varying in Me. I judge in righteousness, in truth and in holiness.
Isaiah 60:2: For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

False Shepherds Will Lose Their Flocks
I received this word some time in the spring or summer of 2009.
"The shepherds who call themselves by My Name who are not Mine will soon find themselves with no flock for I shall take their flocks from them. Those who use My Mighty Name for profit and gain will lose the riches they worship instead of Me.
This is the time of My Cleansing Fire - I will have a pure and holy bride! All that is not holy I will deal with and you are not to associate with such!"
Jeremiah Chapter 25:
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.
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the LORD hath spoiled their pasture.
37 And the peaceable habitations are cut down because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
38 He hath forsaken his covert, as the lion: for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.
Ezek. 34:10-11: Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require My flock at their hand, and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more; for I will deliver My flock from their mouth, that they may not be meat for them. For thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I, even I, will both search My sheep, and seek them out.

Vision of the Great Warriors
Tuesday, July 14, 2009, 9:25 p.m.
I had noticed many Christians around me seem to be getting easily offended or getting “attitudes,” people who normally are humble and loving. After talking to friends who are also sold out to the Most High God and finding out they, too, were experiencing this, I approached the throne to inquire of God if some spirit had been released by the enemy or what we could do about the situation.
All of us have also been fighting discouragement and noticing our usual joy in the Lord was not present, we also have all been feeling very oppressed along with facing attacks and offended attitudes by Christian brothers and sisters. Our stories were so similar it was shocking.
As I began to pray and to worship, I heard “Repair the breach.”
I began to search the scriptures for what exactly that means and found Isaiah 58:12:
And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.
As I prayed and asked God what it meant, He began to speak a word to me:
“Go and repair the breach, My Children! Build up, build up My church, My holy bride for the final hour has come! March! March, form ranks and FIGHT for MY CHURCH!!! “
“Lift up holy hands and pray for My children! Strengthen one another for the battle rages around you in the realm you cannot see and soon will rage around you in the earth.”
“Few are truly prepared for this final hour – strengthen the ones I send to you, lift up the weak, shine as My light into dark places in this final hour! Pray for the lost and deceived for soon they will no longer be able to choose My way over the world’s.”
“Prepare ye for battle my chosen ones! Prepare ye well for the battle will be intense against you in this final hour! My angels also fight along with you in the battle so fear not and cling not to your own lives but be ready to lay them down for the lives of others who do not know Me yet for they will face eternity in hell if they choose not my way.”
“Soon it will end my children, I will come and gather you to myself and this battle will be over. You will be here with Me in heaven, you will look upon the face of My Precious Son and never know sorrow again. Be strong for Me, children! Honor My name in this final hour before you come home – go! Go tell the others about me that they may know Me before it is too late!”
“Gird up your loins! The battle will be fierce around you and the worst has not yet begun. Cover the others in prayer that know Me not and I shall save them but do not stray from the narrow path for other paths lead to destruction in this final hour.”
“I will strengthen you in coming days, I will visit some of you and manifest myself to you, I will speak to you and tell you what you must do for My Name’s sake. In these final days you shall see more of Me in the earth than ever before and also more of the enemy.”
In my spirit I heard these words - Opposing forces turning up the heat of the battle ....
“My hand of protection covers you and protects you until time for you to come home to Me so do not be afraid for I will sustain you in the midst of the evil that you may go forth declaring My Name, My Glory, My Saving Power.”
GREAT WARRIORS IN THE MIDST OF RAGING BATTLE
As I continued to pray, a vision appeared in my spirit.
I saw the earth from high above with many people on it. I saw the enemy’s people and I saw God’s people. The enemy’s people were fierce and very strong – they rushed God’s people and many fell in battle. Each time they rushed, more fell, it was like it came in thrusts. They were merciless against the people of God, an extremely violent force. I saw many fall in the first and second waves, it was obvious God’s people were not ready for this battle, they fell easily - almost without a fight.
But then I began to see just a few warriors in places across the area who were strengthened. They seemed to have a special strength and wisdom and everywhere I saw them I saw there was calm in their spirits – they had deadly determination against the enemy but they were calm inside, unafraid. I felt in my spirit they knew they would eventually lose thier lives in the battle but they were getting their instructions from on high and God was sustaining them to go on and on – further and further – to accomplish His will and tell others during battle – it was as if they were determined to do as much damage to the kingdom of darkness as possible before they went down. Many of them seemed alone, but they shone brighter and stronger than those around them, it was as if they were made of steel and the look in their eyes was absolute. They were dressed for battle and I knew in my spirit they were prepared for what lay ahead. It was obvious from their royal clothing that they fought for the KING.
At www.bibletools.org, I found the following commentary for Isaiah 58:12 which explains what Repairers of the Breach are supposed to do:
Isaiah 58:12
"Breach" has a very interesting usage in the English language as it pertains to our relationship with God and the church's present state. Here is a list of synonyms for "breach" taken from The Reader's Digest Oxford Complete Word Finder: "break, gap, opening, rupture, split, alienation, schism."
The first definition for breach is unusually appropriate as far as the situation in the church is concerned: "the breaking of, or failure to observe a law or contract or standard." We have a covenant, a contract, with God, and He has given us a standard, the Ten Commandments. This sounds a great deal like I John 3:4: "Sin [which separates, creates a breach] is the transgression of the law."
The second definition of breach is also rich: "A breaking of relations; an estrangement; a quarrel, a broken state."
Together, these describe almost exactly what has happened to the church as a result of breaking the covenant (as a result of breaking laws, as a result of sin). There has been a breaking of relations with God because of the church's failure, as a body, to live up to the contract that we made with Him.
Spiritually "a repairer of breaches" is one who restores the right way, beginning with himself. He may have no influence or control over what others do, but he does have control over what he does, and when he repairs his own personal breach with God, the breach in the wall closes a bit. It is as if a stone or a brick were added to the wall—another person is again in a good relationship with God.
John W. Ritenbaugh What Is the Work of God Now? (Part 4)
Earlier on July 14, 2009 while in prayer, I saw in the spirit a group of people worshiping at a church. The worship was awesome and they all felt the presence of God in a mighty way. Then my viewpoint widened and I saw that they were only on the very edge of His presence and that they were not actually seeking God, but they were seeking the “high” or feeling they got during worship.
They were completely missing the One who brought the joy they felt. I could feel that this makes the heart of our God very sad because He wants to be sought and known for who He is – The Most High God and a loving and merciful Father to us all.

Weep for America
April 1, 2009
I was praying and asking God to help me distance myself from distractions so that I could be more effective in my time in His word and in prayer when He spoke this to me.
“The world around you is filled with distractions – many of My children do not spend time with Me at all but the cost to them will be great in the days coming for I shall pour out My judgment upon all those who do not seek to know Me or My Will for their lives. No longer shall I look on as they go their own way following their own plans but I will smite them with a curse until they turn their faces to Me in repentance!”
“The days are quickly approaching when gross darkness shall cover the earth and men’s hearts shall be darkened. No more will they be able to turn to Me and choose My way for they will have worshiped their own way and I shall give them the fruits of it.”
“This nation is no longer under My blessing but under a curse and those who have not chosen to know Me will soon feel My hand of judgment heavy upon them. Cry, My Children! Cry out for those you love! Weep and wail, mourn for the unrepentant hearts for souls are at stake! Cry out to Me for mercy for them for I am the only One who can save them from the flames of eternal damnation!”
“Weep and wail for this lost nation for soon it shall drink from the cup of bitterness as I have ordained! Weep for it! Cry out for the unsaved for many shall perish in that hour! My fire falls on those who love Me and serve Me but a different fire is coming for the wicked and they know it not! I hold My own in the palm of My mighty hand to protect them but I shall pour out My anger on the wicked and unrepentant and my judgments are coming soon!”
“Cry My children! Cry and mourn in travail for the lost for this is My heart!”
“Why waste ye hours praying over building funds and music programs while the hungry and lost walk in darkness? Did Jesus build buildings? Did He run music programs? Nay! He fed the hungry, visited those who were sick and healed them, He prayed and taught unbelievers, He called sinners to repentance!”
“Why do I see My precious widows and orphans sitting alone while My shepherds and priests meet each other daily over expensive lunches? I say those who do not repent of this before Me with tears will pay a grave price! You seek to build your own houses and ignore Mine! I shall tear your idols from Your hands and leave you weeping with no places of worship for forsaking Me, the Fount of Living Water! I shall leave your little ones fatherless and crying in the streets for bread when I smite you with a curse!”
“Weep and howl for your sins have come up before Me and they are grievous! Weep and howl for the fates that await your young ones for your lack of obedience and unrepentant hearts! Weep for your nation for she has forsaken Me and now she must be judged and you will stand in awe of My mighty power as My Hand of Judgment moves against her!”
“I will strike her with fire, with famine and disease! The screams of the wicked I will not hear in that time. I will give her enemies power to burn her and torture her – they will spoil her riches and ruin her beauty because she has forsaken Me and My ways! No more shall she be called the land of the free and the blessed but she shall be termed desolate – jackals shall lodge where her cities once stood so proudly – weeds will cover her and insects will feed on the flesh of the dead in her streets.”
“Then will you know that I AM the Lord your God and Me only shall you serve and worship!”
Jeremiah Chapter 25:
36 A voice of the cry of the shepherds, and an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard: for the LORD hath spoiled their pasture.
37 And the peaceable habitations are cut down because of the fierce anger of the LORD.
38 He hath forsaken his covert, as the lion: for their land is desolate because of the fierceness of the oppressor, and because of his fierce anger.
