Prayer Times

I was in my kitchen cooking dinner Saturday evening, thinking about the fact that I had been praying for shorter times the last month or so than I usually do, when the Lord showed me that this was by the enemy’s design, and that the same thing was affecting all of God’s people lately.

   My child, all My people are being tempted right now to shorten or abandon their normal prayer times. Many are discouraged by current news, and some have abandoned praying to Me altogether, convinced nothing will change if they pray.

   This is the enemy’s work, to keep My people from praying because he knows I will answer them. My people are entering a time of great trials, and a time of much tribulation will soon follow this. They shall be altogether unprepared if they have been out of My Presence all of the time from now until then, and will not survive this.

  The time of the Great Tribulation is almost upon My people. This will be a terrible and perilous time when many shall be martyred for My Name’s Sake. This will be a time when it will seem the enemy has won, but he has already been defeated at the Cross on Calvary. I have told you in My Word that he shall prevail for a time. But only for a time.

   In this time shall many miracles be seen, that souls may be saved for My Kingdom. Many will still refuse to believe because of hardships and lawlessness.  Those who walk through this time and witness for Me shall receive special rewards in heaven not given to others, for it shall indeed be very trying.

   My people, pray! Lift up many prayers now for yourselves and those you love. Lift up to Me prayers for those lost you do not know for I shall reward you for these prayers, for the time you spend praying for these lost souls.

   Watch. And pray, for it comes soon.

1 Thessalonians 5:17

• 17 Pray without ceasing.

Mark 13:32-34

• 32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.
• 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.
• 34 For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

Matthew 24:20-22

• 20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
• 21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
• 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

Revelation 13:6-8

• 6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
• 7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
• 8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

Daniel 7:24-26

• 24 And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the first, and he shall subdue three kings.
• 25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
• 26 But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.

The Enemy’s Plan

    My children, the enemy has a specific plan for this time. He is attempting to turn your world into a free-for-all. He started many years ago when he began tearing at marriages and families. Now he continues to work through those who do not know Me, by attempting to remove all restraint, and all protests against sin.

    He plans to do this by working against My people and My holy Word. He plans to turn the world against you, My people. By causing others to see you as the ones filled with hate, he will turn the people of the world against you. He will attempt to rid the world of you entirely. These will be very perilous times for all of My children the world over.

   These things must be that My Word can be fulfilled and the wickedness of the world can come to an end. Be aware of his plan, My people, for it begins soon. It is already being planned behind the scenes of your world.

John 15:18-25

• 18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you.
• 19 If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you.
• 20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
• 21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
• 22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloak for their sin.
• 23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
• 24 If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
• 25 But this cometh to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. 

Matthew 24:8-10

• 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
• 9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
• 10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

Will You Still Call Me Lord?

   Death comes behind the Wind of Change that approaches in the storms I have shown to you. Death comes in the form of war, and in the form of famine, and in the form of plagues, My children. A terrible plague approaches in the storm (Suddenly I felt short of breath, as if something filled my lungs) that will claim many lives.

   A time of great sorrows is upon you, America, though you know it not. Even My people who serve Me daily are not prepared for this end. Even My people who walk closely with Me are not prepared to see loved ones gasping and dying in front of them.

   Will you rail and shake your fist at Me then? Will you turn your heart away and refuse to believe any longer? What will you feel if you lose everything and everyone from your life?

   Will you still call Me Lord?

   Will you, like My servant David, bow down and worship Me even when your prayers are not answered?  

2 Samuel 12:16-23

• 16 David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth.
• 17 And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them.
• 18 And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead: for they said, Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spake unto him, and he would not hearken unto our voice: how will he then vex himself, if we tell him that the child is dead?
• 19 But when David saw that his servants whispered, David perceived that the child was dead: therefore David said unto his servants, Is the child dead? And they said, He is dead.
• 20 Then David arose from the earth, and washed, and anointed himself, and changed his apparel, and came into the house of the Lord, and worshipped: then he came to his own house; and when he required, they set bread before him, and he did eat.

Job 1:18-22

• 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
• 19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
• 20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped,
• 21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.
• 22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

The Wind of Change

   A new wind will soon sweep across America. This is a great howling wind of change, but the changes it brings will not be good ones.

   This wind will sweep away the plenteousness from the land of America. It will sweep ease from this nation of sin. It will sweep most of the comforts away from you, that you may know that I am God, and I will be revered by all.

   Those of My people who walk closely with Me shall be provided for in this time of need, but those who have continually rejected Me will not have enough.

   The end is near, My children, and you are not ready. Seek My face for what I would have you to do in this time that I may prepare your heart for what is coming.

NOTE:  I heard a strong, haunting wind in my spirit and I saw a scene of emptiness, and desolation. The wind reminded me of a strong north wind in winter, only the scene I saw did not seem to be cold weather, but warm. It looked like the scenes I used to see in far West Texas where the land stretches out so far you think it will never end, with nothing in sight but desert. I saw dust blowing, and emptiness. No people. No animals, no vehicles in sight. Just a vast stretch of emptiness with dust blowing across a highway. I don’t know what this scene means.

In my spirit, I saw that dark threatening storm cloud on the horizon again that reminded me of a tornadic storm, but this time I was shown it is not one storm, but three storms together. One storm is war. One storm is an unbelievable economic crash. The other storm is not yet fully revealed to me, but seems to be a plague or some kind of sickness that spreads rapidly.

I see men in army type uniforms in desert colors (sand and pale army green) standing around discussing things. I heard the words “stench of rotting bodies, and not enough places to bury the dead,” but I don’t know what caused those deaths. I think the war came first and caused so many deaths we have no place to lay them all to rest.

Then I see the economy problem. I see people in good homes, with nothing to eat. They have no money to buy anything. They try to sell their possessions, but no one has anything to buy with. I see shysters going about trying to scam people, telling them they have food, but they don’t. I see the end for these will be far worse – they get “the sickness,” as it is called.

A plague or some type of illness that is very dreaded is spreading. People are locked in their houses out of fear. Those going about scamming others are some of the first to get it. It is very bad and kills quickly. It seems to have started in some kind of food or come from some type of food or that is the way it is spread. In the spirit, I see it has been spread deliberately, by an enemy.

I see mothers going insane when their children die right before their eyes. I see men who have gone mad because they were wealthy before and now they have nothing. The people I see faring best in this are those who live close to the land – for lack of a better word, hillbilly types who are used to having little, and who know how to gather food and make their own medicine.

In many, their violent natures take over at this point and robbing and killing becomes commonplace. Most can’t defend themselves, especially in their weakened conditions. I see that those who have tremendous faith still have food to eat, but it is a closely guarded secret. Locked in their homes at night, everyone gathers around the table. As they praise God, food appears on the plates before them and they eat their fill. This becomes a problem as they begin to really stand out in their healthy bodies among the starving around them, and they are attacked for it, as everyone else thinks they have food in their house that they are hiding from others, and lying about.

Leviticus 19:32

• 32 Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the Lord. 

Psalm 34:7

• 7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

Psalm 115:11

• 11 Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield.

Isaiah 25:1

• 1 O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

Psalm 150:6

• 6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.

A Call To Intimacy

   Beware, My people, for the intensity of the time you live in is increasing daily. When the events culminate to a certain point, it will increase suddenly, exponentially. When this happens, your choices will be very limited and many of My people will not survive.

   I tell you these things that you may prepare by knowing Me more intimately than ever before. If you know Me intimately, I am able to help you in these times I tell you of. If you do not know Me this way, your faith will not sustain you in them, for they will be dire, indeed.

   Plans have been made by those who are privileged, those who have power, and those with special advantages, to make changes according to their liking.

NOTE: I immediately thought of President Trump, and the many who hate him when He spoke that, but He did not say this has anything to do with him.

   Their plans will be carried out, because the time of the end is upon all flesh and all scriptures must be fulfilled, that My people can come home to be with Me here in heaven.

   The people making these plans are against Me. They are against My people, they are against My Word. They will usher in My enemy.

NOTE: I felt He was speaking of the AntiChrist here, but He did not say that.

   This group is made up of many peoples (nations) and they have long plotted to destroy this country because of its foundation in Me. Though many in this country no longer love My Name or serve Me, this country once stood for Me and My ways like no other.

NOTE: He sounded so sad when He said that, like a father who has lost his child.

   My children, you must get ready for what is coming. Becoming close to Me, walking in intimacy with Me, is not an overnight process. If you do not begin, you will not arrive. You will not have enough time to do this if you do not begin now.

   This year will bring many changes for My people, and many opportunities for those who do evil against them. See that you have no part in oppressing My people. See that you take no part in siding with what is wrong. See that you worship only Me, for the end is at hand, and those who do not will suffer a terrible end.

Psalm 91:1-6

• 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.
