Son, I will bless you if you are careful to obey all that I have given you.

Give generously to the poor, not grudgingly, and I will bless you, and make you successful in all your work. Never twist truth or show partiality. Do not be dishonest, for this will make you unwise and corrupt. Live by My truth and you will prevail. You must always keep My word with you, and read it daily as long as you live. That way you will learn to fear Me and know what I demand from you. For the daily reading of My word will prevent you from becoming proud and acting as if you are above anyone. It will also prevent you from turning away from any of My commands in the smallest way.

So write this down, for it is trustworthy and true. “Time is up, it is finished, and only those whose names are written in My Book of Life, will be with Me for ever and ever. Soon I will wipe every tear from My children’s eyes, and there will be no more death, sorrow, crying or pain.”

Use your eyes and ears, and listen to everything I tell you, “When My children have no heart for Me, and have not surrendered themselves to Me, they will bear the consequences. My children must know the difference between what is holy and what is common. They must stop worshiping other gods and honoring their relics. For I require ABSOLUTE HOLINESS.”

Son, when the earth starts to quake and all people live in turmoil, remember these words of Mine. “Human defiance only enhances My glory, for I will use their defiance as a weapon against them. I am the One who holds the foundations firm, and I am bringing justice against the wicked.”

Son, I have put My words in your mouth, so tell everyone everything I have said.

 Lord, I have become old, and my hope is gone for my nation. Look at our proud leaders, especially in the state of California. They prosper despite their wickedness. They seem to live such protected lives; they seem so healthy and strong. They don’t have the kind of troubles Your children have. They wear pride like a jeweled necklace and clothe themselves with cruelty. These fat cats have everything their hearts desire, and they crave even more! They scoff at righteousness and speak only evil; in their pride to remain powerful they seek to crush those who pose a threat to them. They boast as if to say, “What does God know? Does He even know or care what’s happening?” Look at these wicked people- enjoying a life of ease while their riches multiply. So they think, “Let’s destroy everything that will remind us of the commitment and covenant that our forefathers made to God.” They will find ways to shut down all the places where You are worshiped and Your Word is preached.

Lord, look at how they have insulted You! They have rejected the warnings of Your prophets, for they do not want to be told about  the judgments coming. How long, O God, will you allow these people to insult You? Will you let them dishonor Your Name forever? Why do you hold back Your strong right hand? Unleash Your powerful fist and destroy them! Our nation has become a nation full of darkness and violence because You are dishonored!

Son, you must remain in My love and be careful to obey every command I give you. For I am coming as unexpectedly as a thief in the night, and you will be blessed if you are watching and ready for Me.

Son, when you think like this your heart is bitter, and it will tear you up inside. You need to understand the destiny of these wicked people; for I have put them on a slippery path that will take them quickly over the cliff to their destruction. In an instant they will be swept away and destroyed completely. I told them that if they choose this path, My anger will burn against them. Because of the  evil laws they’ve passed I will shut up the sky and hold back the rain so that the ground will fail to produce its bountiful harvests. It’s happening; do you not see it? But remember, that it will affect everyone!

Son, tell My children not to worship Me in the way these pagan peoples worship their lifeless gods. Do not fall into the trap of following their customs. Do not even inquire about their gods, for I have allowed you to know Me and there is nothing that compares to Me. Don’t flatter idol worshipers!

You must be careful to obey all the commands I give you. Do not add anything to My word or subtract anything from it. Commit to all of My Word, and be wholehearted to Me. Teach My word to your children, and tell them to talk about My word to their children at home, and when they are on the road, and before they go to bed and after they get up. Write My word on the walls of your homes and on your gates. When you obey My word you show your love for Me. Hold tightly to Me, and then no one will be able to come against you. They will fear you because I am with you.

Son, I have always given My children the choice between a blessing and a curse! They will be blessed if they obey My commands. But, they will be cursed if they reject My commands, and turn away from Me by worshiping other gods.

Lord, I belong to You and I am clinging to You. You guide me with Your perfect counsel, leading me to a glorious destiny. I desire You more than anything on earth. My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but You remain the strength of my heart. Therefore, I will tell everyone about the wonderful things You do.

Lord, yesterday I heard that this generation, called “Millennialists,” feel that they are entitled. This thought followed me through the night and has been on my mind this morning. Why would anyone feel that they are entitled to anything?

Son, don’t think that I gave your forefathers this land because they were such good people. It was not because of their integrity, but that they recognized I am the One giving them this good land; they understood they were undeserving. I chose your forefathers and their descendants. What did I require of them for choosing them and their descendants? That they fear Me as their Lord and Savior, live in a way that pleases Me, by loving and serving Me with all their heart and soul.

How quickly this new generation has turned away from the way I commanded their forefathers to live! How quickly they have turned away from the good path I commanded them to follow! They are rebelling against Me, by refusing to obey Me and put their trust in Me. I have heard every contemptuous word and proud boast against Me by this generation. I have heard it all! Therefore, they will be deceived, and believe the lies of “the man of intrigue and deception” that is coming.

Son, I care about My children and I pay attention to them. I gave them a new heart so they would be responsive to Me. I took away their stony, stubborn heart and gave them a tender heart towards Me. I put My Spirit in them so that they will follow My word and be careful to obey Me. Remember that I did not do this because they deserved it.

My children must endure the coming persecution patiently and remain faithful by obeying My commands and maintaining their faith in Me. Write this down: “Blessed are those who die in Me from now on. Yes, they are blessed indeed, for they will rest from their hard work; for their good deeds follow them!”

Lord, You alone are my hope. I’ve trusted You from childhood. You have been with me from birth; from my mother’s womb You have cared for me. I will tell everyone about Your love and righteousness. Even though I am not skilled with words, and I am old and gray, I will proclaim Your saving power to this new generation; all Your mighty miracles You’ve done for me.

Son, I have made you a watchman. Therefore, listen to what I say and warn the people for Me. Remind them that I take no pleasure in the death of wicked people. I only want them to turn from their wicked ways so they can live. So tell them this! Tell them to turn from their wickedness.

Son, you are a watchman; when you see the enemy coming you must sound the alarm to warn My people. If you don’t sound the alarm – I will hold you responsible. Whether they obey or not, you must keep sounding the alarm.

My children will come pretending to be sincere. They will listen to your words, but they have no intention of doing what you say. When all these terrible things start to happen – as they certainly will – then they will know that a prophet has been among them.

Son, I told your forefathers to beware that in their plenty not to forget Me and disobey My word.  I told them in the future when the people of America have become full and prosperous and have built fine homes to live in, and their silver and gold have multiplied along with everything else, to BE CAREFUL! Do not become proud and forget Me by saying, “We did all this by ourselves. We have achieved this wealth with our own strength and energy.” They must remember Me, that I am the one who gave them the power to be successful, in order to fulfill the covenant I made with your ancestors. So tell them, “I assure you of this: If you ever forget Me and follow other gods, worshiping and bowing down to them, you will certainly be destroyed. Just as I destroyed other nations; you also will be destroyed if you refuse to obey Me.”

Son, tell those lazy shepherds of My children, “What sorrow awaits you when you feed yourselves instead of My children. Your concern is for your own self, and you have let My children starve. You have not taken care of the weak. You have not tended the sick or bound up the injured. You have not gone looking for those who have wandered away and are lost. Instead, you have ruled them for your own purpose and advantage.”  I now consider these shepherds My enemies, and I will hold them responsible for what has happened to My children. I will take My children away from them, and I will rescue them.

Son, tell My children I will bless them, and I have broken their chains of slavery from those who have enslaved them. They are a holy people who belong to Me; they are My special treasure. So tell them not to be afraid, but remember that I am among them, and I am a great and awesome God. Therefore, they must not covet silver or gold, and do not bring any detestable thing into their homes.

Lord, You know how foolish I am; my sins cannot be hidden from You. Who am I that You would call me Your watchman. In Your unfailing love, help me to be faithful and not fearful.

While I was growing up the conversation around the rapture of the church always intrigued me. I was told there are many passages in the Bible that talk about the second coming of Christ and the rapture of the church. There are unique characteristics that distinguishes the rapture from the return. The rapture, Jesus will come by himself, with a loud shout of an Archangel, and we will meet Jesus in the air. I was also told that there are three views of the rapture, Pre-tribulation, Mid-tribulation, and Post-tribulation.

The two passages in the Bible that are commonly used to show the rapture of the church are 1 Corinthians 15:50-52 and 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18.

1 Thessalonians points:

The Lord Himself

Shout of the Archangel

Trumpet Call

We meet Him in the clouds

1 Corinthians points:

A wonderful secret or mystery

At the last trumpet sounding

Now I would like you to read Revelation chapter 10, because everything mentioned in Thessalonians and Corinthians is found here. It is my position that this is when the rapture of the church takes place, in Revelation chapter 10:7. 

Most people would say that I must be a Mid-tribber. No, I believe in Pre-tribulation because in Revelation there are “3 Woes.” The end of the first woe is mentioned in Revelation 9:12, the end of the second woe is mentioned in Revelation 11:14. The last woe is from Revelation 11:15 on.

It seems that each woe has a set time of duration. The last two woes seem to be mentioned in Daniel as the last week of years (7). So, what is the first woe? Read what takes place in Revelation chapters 6-9. It seems to be a time of great testing for His children.

I am not so bold as to say this is the way it will happen, but if it does, then His church better be ready. When I read other passages about the end times it says there will be a great falling away. Why? Could it be because of the great persecution most people will deny Him because, they think that to do so will stop their suffering?

Isn’t it interesting that after Revelation chapter 10 God sends His two witnesses to the earth? God will never leave this earth without a witness for Him. I believe the two witnesses come to replace the “raptured” church. 

The next question I get from Christians, is why would God allow His church to go through this time when 1/2 of the worlds population is killed. If you read in Exodus, the children of Israel went through the first three plagues that God gave to Egypt, and then it says in Exodus 8:22 that He made a distinction.

Why does God allow any of His children to suffer? I believe it is to show us that He is much much greater than any suffering or hardship we can face. The first century Christians understood this perfectly.

Has the church bought into the lie that God will not allow His church to suffer intense persecution and hardship? It is my belief the church will go through the things mentioned in Revelation 6-9. All will suffer and many will be martyred. Therefore, watch and pray; know the times that we are living in and be prepared for what is coming.

Son, I promise to bless you when people hate you, exclude you, mock you and curse you just because you follow Me. When that happens, be happy! Yes, leap for joy! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. In the days ahead it will be hard for you and My children, but keep My promise in view that what you have gone through for Me will be richly recognized.

Soon a man will arise who will have great pride and make many claims. He will try to bring peace to the earth. But, he is only a man, a very evil man making great boasts because he thinks he is a god. He regards himself as wiser than everyone and thinks no secret can be hidden from him. He will cause another great war. The results of this war: famine, disease and one fourth of the earths population will die. This will be the time when there will be a great falling away from Me and My word, and will bring about a great persecution and martyrdom upon My children. The earth will shake by what is happening; it will begin to shake with so much violence that islands will be moved and removed. When I bring judgment I reveal My holiness, and everyone watching will know that I am the Lord. So, tell My children to be ready.

Son, tell My children to watch and pray, and to be careful not to forget what they have experienced with Me; not to forget Me. Do not let these memories of My love escape from your mind as long as you live and be sure to pass them on to your children and grandchildren. They must remember this and keep it firmly in mind, “I am Lord of heaven and earth, and there is no other. If My children are faithful and obedient then I will be with them and their children during this time of testing.”

Lord, You faithfully answer my prayers with truthful words and awesome deeds. My life and the life of my family are in Your hands. Please keep us from stumbling and falling away from You. For You are the only hope of everyone on earth; therefore, I must tell everyone how glorious You are.

Lord, I am so tired of hearing and writing about all of the sin and rebellion of this world. I have even tried to write something that makes people feel good, and yet You tell me to write about what is coming, so that Your children are prepared.

Son, tell them everything I command you to say, and I know this has been a load to carry, but you must continue to be faithful. For in the coming days My children will say to Me that I hate them because of what they are going through. But My children must learn to trust Me. If they refuse to trust Me then I will not be able to help them. If they go ahead on their own, they will be defeated. They must remember how I have blessed them in everything they have done. How I watched their every step so that they lacked no good thing. I will continue to do so even in this great time of judgment that is coming, as long as they trust in Me.

Son, tell My church, “I know all the things they do, and that they have a reputation for being alive-but they are dead. Wake up! Strengthen what little remains, for even what is left is almost dead. I find that your actions do not meet My requirements. Go back to what you heard and believed at first; hold to it firmly. Repent and turn to Me again. I know that they have little strength, yet when they obey My word and do not deny Me – I will give them an open a door that no one can close. I will protect them in the great time of testing that is coming upon the whole world.” 

Tell them that if they stay lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I will spit them out of My mouth!  Those who refuse Me, say, “I am rich. I have everything I want. I don’t need a thing!” They don’t realize that they are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked. I correct and discipline everyone I love. So they must repent and turn from their indifference. Look! I stand at the door and knock, if they hear Me and open the door, I will come in, and I will share a meal with them as friends.

Lord, You are my God; I earnestly search for You day by day. My soul thirsts for You; my whole body longs for You in this parched and weary land where there is hardly a truthful mention of You. Your unfailing love is better than life itself; how I praise you! Your strong right hand holds me securely.

Son, murder pollutes and defiles the land of America! Since 1973 there have been more than 53 million abortions performed in America. Every single day, more than 3,000 American babies are killed by abortionists and no one has stopped this evil. I hear the prayers of My people, but abortion persists with even more cruelty.

Some are killed by what they call a “Partial Birth:” I think everyone needs to know what is done to one of My little children. Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the baby’s legs with forceps. The baby’s leg is pulled out into the birth canal. The abortionist delivers the baby’s entire body, except for the head. The abortionist jams scissors into the baby’s skull. The scissors are then opened to enlarge the skull. The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is inserted. The child’s brains are sucked out, causing the skull to collapse. The dead baby is then removed.

Son, I know that reading this makes you sick, but I see everything. I hear each of their little cries, and no one is there to defend them and protect them. These little children that I gave life to, and that are hated – I love and know with every detail because I had great plans for them. So, it grieves you, but how do you think this makes Me feel to see their lives treated as human waste? 

America has brought judgment on herself because she has forgotten Me and turned Her back on My laws of life. Therefore she must bear the consequences of her sins. I tried to cleanse her, but she refuses to repent and obey My Word. So now she will remain in her filth until My fury against her has been satisfied. I, The Lord, have spoken!

The time has come, and I won’t hold back. I will not change My mind no matter how My people pray. I will have no pity on this nation for she has not felt shame or guilt for all her crimes. She will be judged on the basis of all her wicked actions. She will waste away because of her sins, and many will mourn privately for all the evil she has done.

Son, I am still searching for someone to stand up and defend these little children; to end America’s right to kill children for any reason. I’m looking for someone that would rise up in My power and authority to rebuild the wall of righteousness that used to guard your land, so I wouldn’t have to destroy the land. But, now I will pour out My fury, consuming them with the fire of My anger. I will heap on their heads the full penalty for all their sins. I, The Lord, have spoken!
