Greetings,
"For I will at this time send all My plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like Me in all the earth." Exodus 9:14
The Lord has restricted me in recent weeks from writing prayer emails, so I am grateful to write and share in this one. Two in Dec., only 1 last month; although He has been instructing in other things. I have sought to share this on social media for those that follow and wish to pray in agreement with me. In December it was the hope of SBC states embracing Concerts of Prayer. Appealing to over 80% of state convention; followed up with 25% that seemed interested. Left with a few churches in WV agreeing to it.
Last month, God spoke and revealed the horrifying reality of our day, in Ezekiel 16:2, 'cause them to know their abominations'. He moved me with this and presented before me the death and dying upon us I was to intercede like never before to stop this and seek His mercy for the hope of salvation to these that are being swept out into eternal hell fire and damnation I have been fighting ever since to get a grasp on this and obey.
As we sat in bible study Monday night, we were reviewing our study of Exodus. God spoke again as we covered the 10 plagues of Egypt. I have been processing 'cause them to know their abominations' and the suicide and other judgements on us for weeks. Trying to grasp and prevail in prayer over these things - failing miserably. And this verse in chapter 9, verse 14 seized me. God is sending all His plagues upon our land. For we have gone from remote incidents to monthly occurrences to weekly to daily happening of evil. We have increased from single digit happenings to dozen's to 100's to 1000's of deaths. We have escalated from judgement to remedial judgement to EPIDEMIC and now to final judgement. did you get that??!! FINAL JUDGEMENT.
The appeal and warnings for Judah went on for over 20 years after Josiah's death till God would bring them to final judgement and destroy Jerusalem and send the people into captivity. The US will not be sent into captivity, but we will be destroyed as a nation, and plundered as a people without God. The grace and mercy of God is extended to a people that seeks Him. "If you seek Me, you will find Me. when you search for Me with all your heart". An easy answer to our plight and dilemma; yet one that the church rejects and refuses. We go on acting like we have plenty of time. We do not!
The hand writing of God is on the wall, just as He did to the king of Babylon. The warning is clear, just as it was to King Zedekiah, 'go out and surrender to the king of Babylon; and I will spare this city, temple, your life and your family's life." But he wouldn't; and they killed his children in front of him; burned the temple and the city; destroyed the wall; killed the majority and carried the rest away into captivity. All because Zedekiah wouldn't listen to Jeremiah. And time was up.
I do not know why it is such a hard thing to see and understand that in the last 10 years to see the increase of death, dying and destruction upon our nation. Why doesn't the church see this and respond rightly? Why is it so far fetched to see His people respond as He has always decreed, 'humble yourselves, repent/confess, return to Me' and I will meet you. Why does the church fail in its biblical response to Him?
some will argue that it is simply fulfilling of prophecy, 'in the last times. . . " But this is only because God's people are as foolish as Zedekiah and Judah; as foolish as Jerusalem and the Pharisees in 70 AD. Jesus foretold of the destruction of the city, due to their great sin in rejecting Him and crucifying HIm. 'His blood be on us"; and God honored that word. It is the same for us as a nation, and as the church for we are as guilty as they of disobeying, and refusing to be broken and contrite before Him. Proper response is necessary just as He has declared throughout His Word. God is sending all His plagues upon us for our great abominations against Him.
Will there be a revival before this destruction? I don't know. There will be another great revival; and we see that starting to happen in the 10/40 window. No doubt a part of God's great plan to finish the task to reach the nations, and then the end. But as for us, too many I fear still only want revival to return to pleasure and ease and God will not honor that pursuit. It will be persecution and complete honoring of Him and unto Him. It will be restoring holiness to the true bride of Christ, to please Him and fulfill His will and ways.
These things are left unknown at this point. But what is known and experienced each day, each hour, each minute in this nation, in our homes and in the hearts and minds of men is 'God is sending His plagues against us to destroy us.' The pursuit of the church, of you and I as intercessors it to stand before Him and plead for the salvation of these that are departing into eternity faster than we can reach them, due to the churches failure in recent decades. Time is up; and eternity is one breath away for far too many this moment. 'Hell has enlarged itself, to accommodate the multitudes going in thereat.'
Our priority for Him is the following:
1. to bring honor and glory to Him in all that we do;
2. to be holy as He is holy;
3. to serve Him among all these that they may know Him;
4. He has placed here for such a time as this, for this very thing of preserving life and presenting His salvation to them before they perish.
None of these things is about self, about ease, about money, about our agendas, it is all about Him. For it is life and death, heaven and hell; and men are perishing in this onslaught of God's hand has gone out against us in severity. 'Cause them to know their abominations' and why I am doing this to your nation!, saith the Lord.
The hour is late; the need is great; pray so as to prevail! For everything depends on it!
Once again I am asking for you to pray and fast for our nation. https://prayer365plus.org/?fbclid=IwAR2Lxcn1ek68zbNFce53lJVaxU63s2xwSlOYXrw1txMrNO71Q_9l41jQkN0
They need us for multiple days at the end of February. You are highly engaged in prayer, and I am asking you to go to this website and help fill these days. Kim Strickland is leading this; and I am doing as much as I can to help her. It is needful for all of us to jump in and fill these days. Simply contact her and see what days she needs filled. Thank you!
PRAYER TARGETS:
EPIDEMICS:
1. Drugs/Alcohol - continued attack of addictions, indulgence; Super Bowl fueled wide increase of consumption, sins, death; overdoses and deaths remain high; addictions, ensnare by demonic control; unless this is broke, no deliverance;
2. Great Evil - suicides - avg. 66 per day; murder-suicides - 50 in 36 days so far this year; This is my battle and struggle right now as the Lords lead me to counter this great evil upon our land. We undertook, as He revealed to us, school shooting, police shootings and saw major decrease and limited deaths. This is the same impact, God reveals, we respond. Minds & hearts of men are evil, pray to undo, stop, thwart, and bring to nought; 'deliver them from evil'.
3. LGBT - has been quiet recently, but their continued assault agianst the church is ever present; stealing the next generation in the midst of perversions;
4. Natural Disasters - as you may know 7.7 in Caribbean last week; we knew it was coming; remote area, and not as much death or destruction; due for another one at any time over 7.0; watching and waiting for Philippine volcano to erupt, Taal; locusts in Middle EAst is something unusal; more wildfires near captial in Australia;
5. Children - continued abuse and neglect reported week after week upon children, young and old; more sex crimes by teachers/coaches; more children found chained, starving in homes, cages;
6. Plagues/Diseases - Chinese virus, is pandemic; 100's dead, 1000's infected; our own flu, long before Chinese flu gets here has killed estimated 10,000 this winter; cancers continue; reported that China is facing an onslaught of all viruses from swine flue to H5N1; STD's rampant;
