The Word of the Lord for 2010 - Prophet Gene

For the past several days I have been making special efforts to hear from God for the year to come. I have done this every year since 2004. Each year I become more bold in proclaiming what the Lord is saying. He is faithful to fulfill what He says. The word of the Lord is always true. I may not always hear it right or report it right, but HE is always true.

I submit these words with confidence in our God and with fear and trembling. When I look back over the words from the past several years I see a pattern. Sometimes it has been more WHAT than When. God's prophetic word seldom comes with a timetable. The word of the Lord is best offered in these times because the hearts of men are prone to hear the Word during time of transition.

I do know this, HIS Word is always true.

At the turn of the calender for the Jewish year to 5770 I gave a word of Prophecy for the year to come. Before I begin to publish the word of the Lord for 2010 in our Julian Calender, it might be good to review what the Lord was saying a few months ago. It's no less true now. The prophetic words to follow will be additional instruction.

If you review the word of the Lord for the past several years he has always dealt with me in areas, mountains as Lance Wallnau would call them. I prophesy over these contested realms.

This gives me and you a chance to understand that God's intention is to have the Kingdoms of the world to become the Kingdoms of our God.

Let the reader understand what the Spirit of God is saying.


The Economy
You hear in media that things will be OK. Things are recovering. Strained optimism is everywhere. They are nothing more than signs in the tea leaves. False hope is rebounding everywhere. Even those who are MY Prophets are saying things will be fine. That is true, but not for all people and not for a long time. What is things will be fine, when is the unrevealed.

People in power have done all they can do to stimulate the economy. I am God over the economy. I make one step up and another step down. The leaders do all they can do but it's a futile effort until My word is released in the earth.

The adjustment (Justice) that I began on Rosh Ha Shanna 2008-9 is not yet complete. The only thing supporting this economy is hope in government, hope in systems, hope in hope. Until Hope in ME is restored there is no hope. Only hopelessness.

The greed and excess that caused Baal to fall has not yet been removed from a system with evil as it's intention. This is more than just a floating higher balloon driven by so much hot air, this is an illusion. People have become prisoners of hope.

There will be one more drastic downturn soon. Efforts will be made to hold this off until after the political season. It will only make things worse. Corruption to be removed is at the heart of this judgment. Once this downturn is completed it will be a very long time until recovery can take place. Well into the decade to come. 2015.

Oil prices will soar, for a short time. Gold will go up in value for a very short time, housing will not recover for a very long time, Unemployment is going to stay very high. This will be a time for you to learn to TRUST in MY provision. For some it will be ravens by the Brook. For others a cruz of oil and a little meal.

Fear not. It's all part of an adjustment that must come. It will mean a currency devaluation that will stagger many. Wealth will be destroyed. It will mean that many will come to the end of themselves. True wealth will be found, and it's not in worldly systems.

It's time for truth and justice to be restored. The old systems have become a false God. It was essential that this idol come down.

I will have no other God's before ME. I stand above any man's market or economy. When I call a famine or prosperity I call for it and it will happen. Be certain, I will take away anything that tries to substitute itself for dependence on ME. Particularly those called by my name must repent of dependence on the world for their provision as if they have forgotten my name as Jehovah Jireh.

I am the Lord your God, there is no other.


Business and Industry
There will be tremendous opportunities in the year to come...and in the decade. Huge fortunes will be made. And lost. Some will be made in places and by methods that do not yet exist in the mind of man. I AM the author of secrets to great wealth, hidden treasures and witty inventions. These things kept hidden from the world for you to find. If I made it easy and open many would exploit them for their own benefit. I created these things not for the world, but for the righteous. The wealth is hidden (stored up) for the righteous. You will have to prepare. You will have to be vigilant. Creativity will be needed. And, keen sensitivity to the prompting of MY Spirit. Other deceiving and tempting economic spirits will come. They are NOT of me.

Your security will be found only in ME. I will provide. Your job is not going to be secure. Even one offered by government is empty for I shall destroy the idea of government jobs as security. Too many have substituted security found in other places for what was always meant to be found in me alone. You security will be found only in ME. Seek me and you will find Me. As you find me, you will find peace, joy, rest and LIFE.

Interest rates will rise. Money will tight by the world's standard. Difficulty will be amplified in the worlds system. Yet, as you stay steady in ME I will show myself strong to provide and deliver.

Don't fear. Don't believe all that the prophets of doom say nor all the court prophets tell you. This day is essential. And it will provide opportunity to those ready to take it.

In the last times like this, great and powerful businesses were born, launched and made many great worldly wealth. That time is now again. The world has no hope. It cannot succeed because the fathers of lies has convinced them they must fail. The father of lies is holding out a system that says in essence, trusting God is of no value, trust in government, the economy, self reliance, capitalism, socialism or any kind of godless ism. Do not believe them. Receive this lie and it will put you in chains.

There are clever business deceivers. Be aware. Be on guard. Even this year you will be approached by some. It will be appealing, but there will be a warning sign. Learn to hear the voice of Peace and Joy. Do nothing out of fear. Fear caused Peter to deny. Fear caused most of the disciples to hide. Fear will keep you from your destiny. You were created to reign, in business. In life.

Take your place. See yourself as ones who stands above the marketplace. Step into the anointing I have called you to. You will know it when it comes. I am here to reign thru you as My Kingdom comes.

Government
Excessive trust in man's schemes to solve all problems thru government is the source of all kinds of evil. It will place unrighteous people in positions of power over you to which you were never meant to become submitted. Unrighteous power acquisition in government is a sin that permeates fallen man's governmental efforts.

You were never destined to be a democracy or to live under the heel of government. You were designed by ME, you were destined to be subject to a King. He is the one you long for. But you substitute seeking my Kingship in your life by seeking Governmental solutions. You substitute your longing for the true King of King and Lord of Lords by electing people and parties that ultimately will oppress you or mislead you. Your mixture of faith in ME and your faith in Government is a mixture I cannot stand. I will have no other Gods in your life. Therefore whatever you put up before me, I will tear down. I am about to tear down and expose the failures of government. To put them in the proper place in your life.

You have seen bubbles. Bubbles of Technology, Bubbles of Real Estate and Bubbles of the Markets in recent years. Each have fallen to earth. Trusting them has become a snare for many. It has been costly. Painful.

There is another bubble about to deflate. The bubble of government. I will not allow governments or people in power to take ME off the throne. I will have dominion even if they deny me. Certainly, for a short time, dominion may be denied, but You are my hands, my feet, my authority. Exercise it. Encourage righteous in a pure sense and help them but do not depend on them. Do not be disappointed when they fail. They most certainly will. Even the one after My own heart failed. All fall and all are short of the Glory I Possess.

Prepare for what will happen as government gods fall. It will appear to be disastrous, but it is be part of my plan for the Kingdom to come. Have no fear, I am kicking every artificial props that were of no real value to you. I am your all in all. ALL.


Believers and the Church
You have felt you were in a transition time, you are. This is a reset. Redo. Restart. What you once believed about the future has become a distant memory. Fear not. It's all of me. I am doing the new thing you have proclaimed for years.

Old things are indeed passing away. Your flesh longs for the familiar, the easy, the old. None of that can prosper as my Spirit renews the manifestation of the saints on the earth...my BODY.

This is a time when what seemed so new and fresh thirty years ago seems to have gone stale. Don't reach back to that time. It is yesterday. Some have even made an image of that time in their hearts. Graven. False. I will throw down those images.

I am jealous My Names Sake. You represent MY NAME on the earth. I will have a pure and spotless representation of ME. The false and wrong representations I will tear down. It represents something that comes between you and ME. She must be without wrinkles. She is NOT YET... but WILL BE. That will mean change. The Church WILL CHANGE. Many will disappear. Close down. True Shepherds will emerge. False hirelings will fall away. It is my plan of purity.

If you feel that everything you Thought you knew has been upended... it has. The waiting white field ready for harvest has not been harvested by the harvesters of the past. This will take a brand new harvester to accomplish.

As this comes, there will become the great divide between those who depend on the days of old and the traditions of man to bring in the great harvest and those who depend on the laborers called of me. This division is of me. False unity was never my intention for my body. She will not be schizophrenic.

I know the leaders I can depend on. I also know those trapped in the snare of Man Pleasing. I can not ever really use or trust a man trapped in that snare. The enemy of your souls will use every deception to keep you from me as a Body. Do not let it happen. Press into me.

You will need to trust me even more than you have, you will need to have even more faith than in the past. This is a season of knowing i am your source and sole provision. Anything other than faith in me alone will be empty. If you believe the world you will suffer again and again from dashed hopes and broken promises. Receive a lie and it will put you in chains.

Learn to hear my voice. I am Speaking. Listen. I will never ever leave or forsake you. Develop an awareness of My hand in your life. This is a time when I am reaching in and removing everything that is NOT of ME. Your heart will be revealed as pressures increase. That has always been my intention. A pure heart in you.

Return to ME and I will bind you up where I have wounded you. That's a promise for 2010.


Entertainment, Media, Sports
Pleasure and entertainment are not in and of themselves evil. I created them. The song. The dance. The Word spoken. The race of sports. Even relationships between a man and a woman are of me. Those things written and shown that magnify them in Glory are rooted from MY Spirit. All are sourced from me.

But, many have made pursuit of entertainment, media, movies and sports a god unto themselves. Sports have become a substitute for my word. Movies and Television are pipelines for lies about the world I created. Entertainment has become a diversion and even a perversion that keeps people from true intimacy with ME. Or even with each other.

I will tear down those things not of me. I have in the past used humiliation and accusation to destroy publicly those held in high esteem by the world. Even in the past year. The past month. No man can be god and the godlike attributions given to many great sports heroes has caused MY jealous judgment to be released.

I will judge and remove anything you hold above ME. There is much good that can be done for the Kingdom using media and sports. It is my intention to do that. I will not allow anything to stand that is dishonorable. I will honor those who honor ME.

Some were destined to take dominion in the arenas of Sports, Entertainment and Media to demonstrate the goodness of my mercy and kingship. If you are called to be that person MY anointing for you is there for the asking.

There is deception you will encounter. You might even begin to believe the things the world says about you. Don't believe them. If you receive the lie it will put you in chains. I made you. Every breath you take is of me. Only by my grace can you take another. Take your place and remember the God of your youth. I am HE.


Education
The shift has begun. For a long time I have been exposing weakness and danger of empty education without understanding. Now that process is accelerating. The discredit of public education will increase. As the government bubble is deflated, so will the educational bubble be. It must be. This original admonition in training up a child was for developing skills to make a life and understand My word. Now it has become a method used of your enemy to indoctrinate the young in false religion and lies.

I will not allow this to stand. While it will not fall in this year, it will fall and when it does, mighty will be the fall of it. Many will mourn. But the Righteous will rejoice that once more TRUTH will be taught. Honor to those who should be honored. Dishonor to the dishonorable.

The schemes of the enemy hidden just below the surface in Educational systems will be exposed. I will use people to bring justice to the earth by establishing MY Kingdom, I must have them trained in the fear and admonition of ME.

I will have NO OTHER GOD'S BEFORE ME...NONE.


Global Change
There is a global change underway. It's rapid. It will mean that in a generation much of what you thought would never change will be remade. In a moment. Like the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Persia will be restored. China will continue to prosper and China will be Mine. Korea must become ONE...the prayers of the Saints are heard at MY throne. Small fires of My Spirit will break out in Europe starting in England and in the former Eastern European countries. The conflicts with Islam will become greater, But fear not, Islam is failing....from within. It's a supernatural work. I am showing Myself to every one of them. Jesus is Truth, Islam is a lie.

Africa has a mighty destiny in me, but her time is not yet. Many hearts of many men wicked and must be made right before restoration can come. South America will rise. Brazil, Argentina, Chile and others will find new places of authority. My Kingdom has been established there and will be made manifest. Mexico is being weighed in the balance. American will play a necessary role in restoring the corrupted broken system to some basis in hope. It will look like unity, but it will be distinct.

There is a shift that is to come. Truth about the political and spiritual vacuum Will become evident and things will change. I am exposing hypocrisy and evil at every level. As people become more and more aware of Truth, more and more are set free. Freedom is not a movement, freedom is Truth. Many people thought freedom was political power. True freedom starts when the spirit in a man or woman is set alive by MY Spirit.

I AM. There is no God but Jehovah. That will become evident and every knee will bow. And it will cause Global Change.


Geophysical Change
The shakings and upheavals will continue. Don't be surprised by anything that happens. I am using them to bring people to Me. Pay little attention to the predictions of Man. When it comes to weather, earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes, hurricanes, typhoons, floods and droughts never forget. I am the GOD of all things, even the weather.

I use the weather to humble the arrogant. I created all things and all things hold together in me. Do not call what I created for good, evil. Carbon Dioxide is not poison. It's part of my purpose in life.

I can change a nation in Moment. Sometimes I use events to accomplish my purposes. Five years ago I changed Indonesia. I will do what I will do. It's not anger, it's not always even judgement. It's creating a way for those who have lost sight of who I AM to discover ME. Watch for the fruit of what I am doing.

Things will intensify. Signs in the sky. A double full Moon in a single month is a sign. Change is coming and you will see it everywhere. Fear not. It has always been so. Have faith in Me. I am the God that heals you. Makes you whole and preserves you in the pestilence, flood and famine.

After three days, I will send healing rain. Sweet rain. Expect a rain (reign) of mercy. It's on the way.

Leader Changes
Many see changes that have just passed and wonder of the future. Your confidence must never be in any man. I provide leaders by My Spirit. I put one up and take another down. The torch is passed one generation to another.

Many will pass from the scene and there is little to remember them by in a hundred years. Some in a thousand and some forever. But, I ALONE am the eternal God. Remember ME.

The passing of spiritual leaders will continue. I am raising up others to take their place. They are prepared. If you are called on to lead, do so understanding the ones who went before were not perfect. They were human. If they said they were without sin they would have lived in self deception. I use the most flawed and broken to confound the wise. That's why I can use YOU.

There are political figures who seem to be permanent in our eyes who will pass from the scene. Their influence will be gone. I allowed them a time of rule to demonstrate truth in contrast of righteous and unrighteous government. Seek ME and I will remove the unrighteous from your necks.

I will call some of you to step into those places. Obedience will be better than sacrifice. If I call, your answer must be YES.

There is a darkness in leadership that will yet be exposed. It will cause many to become discouraged. Do not be so. Even Kings and Priests I used to accomplish my purposes on the earth were gravely flawed. It has always been so. As the darkness is exposed see it for a cleansing and a warning. It will cause leaders hearts to turn to ME.

Some who have been rejected by the world will arise. My destiny is on them. They will shock the world and the wisdom the world values by their sudden rise.

When departures happen, do not mourn, look to me. When new arrivals come on the scene, look for ME in their new position.

Many schemes designed to control you will fail. The potential of the enemy just outside your gate was to help you come to understand who I am as you seek to have victory.

I am King of Kings, Leader of Leaders, Lord of Lords. There is no one but ME. I use even the pagan and evil to blow a wind of warning by you. It is meant to help you cling to me in the storm.

A year from now you will look back and see how I have provided for you. You have been made whole in ME. The world will look different. Leaders will be different. Situations will have changed. It will be the whole new beginning and you will see clearly the task before you.

This is a year when you will begin to see clearly what is about to happen. I am giving you new instruction and new direction and new leadership.

They will help you hear the true voice...."this is the way, Walk Ye In It".


FEAR

There is a primary tool the enemy uses to keep you in chains....Fear. Fear is a lie. You have nothing to fear except he who can destroy your eternal soul. Death is not a fearful thing. Those who have seen the waiting Glory never want to come back. When the fear and sting of death is conquered you will fear little else.

As the news, the talk shows, the Internet, friends, news articles, gossip and a hundred other influences propagate and perpetuate myths and fears, MY WORD TO YOU IS AS IT ALWAYS HAS BEEN....FEAR NOT! Have faith in GOD. Have the Faith OF GOD.

Perfect Love long ago cast fear out. You have to work hard to get fear back.

There are workers of terror on the earth. The Islamic fear machine uses fear to direct and control. Only courage born of ME will carry you thru as the fear efforts arise.

Much of what you see and hear is a tool of the enemy to provide you good reasons to be afraid. FEAR NOT.

Be aware. Be prepared. Be ready. Be confident in ME. There is no other one but ME. Be sure of that truth.

It is well to be concerned for the future, for your family, for your health, for your finances. All of them are common to all men. When I walked the earth, I wondered after these things just as you do. However, do not allow the storms to come to strike fear in your hearts. I AM MASTER OVER THE STORM.

Trust fully in ME and you will find all fear cast out by perfect love.

The Family Relationship
You will find yourself asking the question I asked... "who is my mother, who are my brothers and sisters". Family Relationships are formed in more than one way, some are of the flesh, some are of the Spirit.

Treasure them both. They matter. They are all of the Blood.

During this year family relationships will be tested, some broken then restored and ultimately strengthened. Have faith in ME.

A new healthy understanding of who you are in ME will result. Your position in ME will not change even when sometimes positionally you feel less or more in "Family". I change not.

As you keep your eyes on ME some of your relationships to others will heal and grow stronger. I am your Head. I want to show myself strong in your covenant relationships. Not just in marriage, even if that is a clear example of My Church and ME. But in ALL relationships. My intention is to do you good, to see you reach the greatness in your destiny, to help you become closer and closer to Me, and to develop wholeness in your relationships with one another and with ME.

Do not fear or be distressed when some family relationships seem to suffer because of who you have become. I will draw men to ME as you hold ME up in your life. You will NOT be drawn into who they are. One must increase, the other must decrease.

It will seem like division, split, even warfare sometimes. I will provide a safe place in relationships to bridge to the perfection I intend for you and yours.

Perfect LOVE casts out all kinds of fears. I am your perfection in relationship, I will NEVER leave you nor will I ever ever forsake you.


Word of the Lord for the Decade to Come
There will be more change in this decade then you ever imagined. Restoration of many things. Tearing down of others. Seeming disasters beyond understanding. Amazing miracles. Discoveries. Peace. War. Resolution. Birth. Death. Pain. Joy. Challenges to everything you believe. Then affirmation of that Faith you hold so dear. You will be refined as by fire.

And it has ever been thus. And will be. The end of 2010 will be the beginning of these things.

Remember this; I am the God that changes NOT. When someone says to you, everything has changed, I am the unchangeable one.

I am KING of Kings. You will understand that more as the years move. My Kingdom is coming to earth.

You will find peace. It's not external. It's in YOU. My Dominion starts in your heart. I must have reign there first. Then you can spread that reign to others around you.

Then My Kingdom will come on earth as it is in Heaven.

The Word of the Lord for 2009/5769 (the Jewish Year)


Surely the Lord GOD does nothing Unless He reveals His secret counsel To His servants the prophets. Amos 3:7


As I have for the last several years, I have spent time waiting on God to see what he has to say about the year to come. There are 4 other earlier prophetic year end, start of new year prophecies on this particular blog. Since I want to be clear what is Direct from the Mouth of God IN RED, What is My Impression BLUE, What is shown me as a seer GREEN and What I believe is explanation by Gene at the beginning, I have been careful to differentiate them not only with titles but in coloration. Since God's word is eternal, I have been careful from time to time to include God's word where he speaks directly from the Canon of Scripture. The purpose of Prophecy is to encourage, correct, reprove and warn. All of those are here:



The Word of the LORD for
2009/5769 (the Jewish Year)

Overall Impressions from Prophet Gene:

2009 is the year of righteous Judgment – 9 is the number of judgment – Judgment is nothing to fear if it's from the Righteous Judge of the Universe
To judge is to Adjudicate Justice. That equals AD-JUST. This is an adjustment. To judge means that distractions and clouds are taken out of the way so the way is seen clearly. To judge is to restore a right balance where an unjust balance was before. The Judgment is against things and people no longer in proper alignment with the purposes of God. Re-Alignment. Adjustment. Judgment against poverty is prosperity, judgment against sickness is health, judgment against corruption is exposure. True Justice requires judgment first.
Judgment will bring down unrighteous Judges. Exposure of sin is Justice and Judgment. It causes an Adjustment.
False Justice is:

  • Money given to assuage a sense of pity or guilt
  • Bailouts without accountability
  • Giving to the poor without discipleship

True Justice is opportunity and choice. Restoration then an admonition to go and sin no more. Nothing else matters. It's an affair of the heart. If justice reigns, one must go free and choose:

  • Opportunity to fail or succeed
  • Serve God or man
  • Walk Upright or Wicked
  • Fear God or fear man
  • Sin or live Holy

Study the contrasts between the wicked and the Upright and true justice will always choose the upright. The book of Proverbs is a textbook for this contrast. Justice will reign.


At the end of 2008 much has been experienced and suffered but 90% of people who want to work are working, 90% of people are paying their rent and mortgage payments on time. A sense of tenuous optimism exists.
Some economic segments are doing badly, those depending on raw materialism are suffering most. That's the Judgment of God against Materialism. Temples to the false God of materialism are being judged (shopping malls).
Blessings are on those who restore, repair, remodel, rebuild, reuse and re-establish. It's time to take what has been wasted and discarded and make whole once again. That includes people.



Impressions from the Throne:

Fear is the main source of the pain in judgment. Uncertainty. What is going to happen?
Fear is of the devil. God has NOT given you a spirit of Fear. The wicked tremble when no one is pursuing them.Look, they say, there's a bear or a lion in the street. There isn't, but fear makes it real. They do not sow because of the wind, they do not harvest because of clouds that threaten rain.Fear has disabled them. They are stuck. Fear paralyzed.

Judgment is a cleansing.
This cleansing is like a garment stained with filth. It is judged unfit to wear. It must undergo cleansing to make it right. Justice prevails to restore.

  • There are additives. Soaps. Hyssop. Mixed with Pure Water.
  • Requires a Disturbing action that shakes everything
  • Exposure to the light
  • Hanging out to Dry

and then, to remove the spots and wrinkles that allow re-use a hot iron is used to re-shape and justify the garment once again.
That is what is going on in the Spirit in this Re-alignment.


FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD

I am putting a firebreak around you. I am burning away everything that got too close to you and that in the fire might harm or even destroy you. As the fire passes by it will not harm you. What you saw as destruction was protection.
When the fire of judgment is complete you will drink from cisterns you did not dig and harvest from vines you did not plant. In that way the wealth of the wicked is being placed in clean hands.
The machine is going to stop, be readjusted and start again but under new management. One that fears My Name.
You might find yourself longing for the leeks and onions of Egypt but they are gone. You can never go back. Egypt is no more. Do not mourn for her. Weep for Zion – Your true home.
I am by judgment making the crooked places straight, the high places low, the low places high and removing anything in the way of My purposes in you.

Isaiah 45
1 THUS SAYS the Lord to His anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have held to subdue nations before him, and I will unarm and ungird the loins of kings to open doors before him, so that gates will not be shut.
2 I will go before you and level the mountains [to make the crooked places straight]; I will break in pieces the doors of bronze and cut asunder the bars of iron.
3 And I will give you the treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that it is I, the Lord, the God of Israel, Who calls you by your name.

I will bring an intense light that exposes foolishness, corruption and the false balances that have been set up by the enemy.

This will require new wineskins capable of holding this new fresh wine. Old things are passing away as they are judged unworthy.
This Judgment starts with my Church that has become drunk on the old wine.

Isaiah 28
5 In that day the LORD Almighty
will be a glorious crown,
a beautiful wreath
for the remnant of his people.
6 He will be a spirit of justice
to him who sits in judgment,
a source of strength
to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
7 And these also stagger from wine
and reel from beer:
Priests and prophets stagger from beer
and are befuddled with wine;
they reel from beer,
they stagger when seeing visions,
they stumble when rendering decisions.
8 All the tables are covered with vomit
and there is not a spot without filth.
9 "Who is it he is trying to teach?
To whom is he explaining his message?
To children weaned from their milk,
to those just taken from the breast?
10 For it is:
Do and do, do and do,
rule on rule, rule on rule;
a little here, a little there."
11 Very well then, with foreign lips and strange tongues
God will speak to this people,
My People that survive and prosper in this judgment must be me the standard raised against the flood of discouragement and the spirit of the world.
My Judgment isn't yet finished. Much will happen still. Only by keeping your eyes firmly fixed on MY cloud by day and MY pillar of fire by night can you stay close enough to MY Glory which is the only real security you can have in the world where tribulation threatens.
Anything else you see or hear is distraction. And distractions will create lost sheep. Stay clear, guard your heart, don't look left or right.

Proverbs 4
23 Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life.
24 Put away perversity from your mouth;
keep corrupt talk far from your lips.
25 Let your eyes look straight ahead,
fix your gaze directly before you.
26 Make level paths for your feet
and take only ways that are firm.
27 Do not swerve to the right or the left;
keep your foot from evil.

The world is groaning in travail.
... new births of new justice causes pain and groaning.

Geophysical upheavals will increase. They are Adjustments. They will be disturbing, destructive and sometimes even deadly.
The truth of Ecclesiastes will come to life in this day. There will be a time to live and a time to die. Every purpose under heaven will be revealed. Everything else will be shown to be vanity. Vanity.
Anything other than seeking ME will be vanity.

Ecclesiastes 12:
11 The words of wise men are like goads, and masters of these collections are like well-driven nails; they are given by one Shepherd.
12 But beyond this, my son, be warned: the writing of many books is endless, and excessive devotion to books is wearying to the body.
13 The conclusion, when all has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person.
14 For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.
Unjust Social Changes will be exposed once more for what they really are. Abominations. Hidden Sin now made Public.


INQUIRY OF THE LORD for the FUTURE

What of the new president?...I asked...
As a Seer I asked to see...This is what I saw...
I didn't see him in the future.
I see the team he has assembled. I see people he placed in authority. I don't see him.
It may be that I don't see him because he will change. What I think I am seeing is not the man I see today. He will somehow move. Hidden perhaps. I hope it is a spiritual seeing and not seeing.
Maybe I don't see him because he is not there......
It disturbs me.

Economic

Fear = Opportunity
Gasoline and Oil and Energy will be ample but more expensive. This low price is temporary.
I see prices in the US $2.50 range and Crude in the $80 range.
By the first day of Spring, new spring will spring. It will not be over but things will look very different. Hope SPRINGS eternal in the hearts of MEN. Spring Brings Hope.

IMPRESSIONS OF WHAT GOD WOULD SAY TO HIS PEOPLE RIGHT NOW

Stay in connection with others - a 3 stranded cord is not easily broken. It's time to encourage one another.
Make the main thing, the main thing. Stay away from fruitless diversions and arguments.
All the things that have happened and are happening are for a purpose under heaven. Just as Islamic attacks are exposing Islam and causing self destruction, wars and collapse are exposing and causing destruction of things that were out of balance.Hatred of Israel will increase. Perhaps beyond your understanding. This worldly hatred will wash over into hatred of her sister, the Church. Churches that stand with Israel will be hated. Be careful not to fall into the popular trap of hating Israel. She is still the Apple of His EYE.

Deuteronomy 28
7 Remember the days of old;
consider the generations long past.
Ask your father and he will tell you,
your elders, and they will explain to you.
8 When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance,
when he divided all mankind,
he set up boundaries for the peoples
according to the number of the sons of Israel. [c]
9 For the LORD's portion is his people,
Jacob his allotted inheritance.
10 In a desert land he found him,
in a barren and howling waste.
He shielded him and cared for him;
he guarded him as the apple of his eye,
11 like an eagle that stirs up its nest
and hovers over its young,
that spreads its wings to catch them
and carries them on its pinions.
I see mosques that were built to expand the Islamic empire converted into houses of worship of Jesus. This is the ultimate wealth of the wicked converted into the hands of the righteous.
I see the decline of "mainline" denominations accelerating. There are now more Muslims in America (4 million) than there are Episcopalians (2.2 Million).
The challenge of Islam will only be met by Lifting Up Jesus. The challenge of the culture in this post Christian era will only be meet by lifting up Jesus just as it was in the beginning. When he is lifted up, he draws all men to himself.

THE WORD OF THE LORD:

God says He will supply everything we need:

  • In alignment with (according to)
  • His total Sovereignty and ownership of everything in heaven and in the whole of all creation (his Riches)
  • as we draw near and stay in his anointing and flow (in Glory)

GOD IS ANGRY WITH THE WHORE CHURCH

God is about to judge the WHORE CHURCH
There is a severe judgment against the Church that bears MY name. There is a whore church will be judged as she is revealed to those who are not blinded, those who have eyes to see and ears to hear.
She is NOT who you think she is. She is a whore who has prostituted herself with the world.
She looks good. She's pretty.
She can be satisfying. Even appealing.
Very Friendly. Outgoing. Fits right in with anyone. Comfortable.
Alluring to the world who will embrace her for a season.
She will walk the streets and have intimacy with the world around her.
When she is exposed the world will be offended by her, will reject and abandon her like the trodden under whore she is. The whore Church will be surprised and wounded by this rejection. "After all didn't we dance to your tune when you piped"?
She is like that kind hearted whore of legend who takes in and cares for lost souls, does good but sells her soul to do so.
Destruction is her name and her ultimate fate. She will lead many to HELL.
All other pursuits are vanity and chasing after lesser lovers will prove to be most vain like the whore that she has become.
This isn't about style, this isn't about fashion, this isn't about tradition, this isn't about liturgy, this is about the centrality and exclusivity of the saving power of the Blood of Jesus and the rejection of all else.
Jesus, the Incarnate God man, the Christ, The only exclusive way to the father, the Creator of all things, he who was tempted and yet without sin, He, that One, Seated on the Throne as King of Kings is all that Matters. He's all there is. Jesus being lifted up draws all men to him. Church, religion, style, fashion, repels.
Jesus is the stone of offense and will become even more. The Whore Church will try to hide or camouflage the chief cornerstone but will fail to do so.
The world and it's whore church will try to silence the mention of his name. His name is power and it threatens everyone and everything that has tried to supplant him from the hearts of men.
His Spirit that dwells in and overflows from his church is all that can wash away the whoredom of the whore church.
God is saying to the whore church. Repent for your end is at hand.
I don't see her repenting. And in the Book of Revelation, she doesn't.



I SEE....as a SEER

Faith in Government will fail. Not in 2009, but it will fail. It has tried to take the place of a Jealous God. He will not allow any other Gods before him.
Man's attempt at witchcraft will fail. It is all vanity. Therefore attempts to modify the climate by human efforts will continue to prove foolish and vain.
George Bush was ordained as the Rod of God during his administration. Many of the things he did that caused great anger in the world were there to be used for The purposes of God. He has suffered insult and derision for doing what God called him to do. His legacy will be greater than his shame.

GOD SPEAKS
Fear not, I will give you rest. Those who seek me will find me and in that day I will give you a sabbath day rest. I AM your sabbath day rest. Come to me all who are weary and heavy laden. Find Rest.
Treat all that is DUNG in your life as DUNG. Do not see it as something precious to be held on to.

Philippians 3
7 But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.
Pressing on Toward the Goal
Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

Love not the world, nor the things that are in the world.

IMPRESSIONS from the Throne
God says, "I am doing a citizenship check. Of which kingdom are you? Where do you belong? If you are of the Kingdom of God, start to act accordingly. If not......"
Everything that has been shaken will continue to shake and more. Except the unshakable God.
Put all your confidence in him. He will NEVER be shaken. He cannot be.

God's word to his wandering Church.

  • Return to me.
  • Keep your focus strictly on Me.
  • Stay Pure and Holy – do not be conformed to the world.
  • Make Disciples First and Foremost – It is My command
  • Encourage one another as the days grow darker
  • What looks like a wound to you is a tearing down to build up. After 3 days I will raise you up again. All things are become new.

GOD SAYS – I HAVE TORN DOWN BAAL

On 7-7-07 I heard your cry as tens of thousands of you called out in Nashville TN. "Tear down the Baals in our lives" you said. You called, I answered.
On September 29th 2008, the first day of a New Moon, Rosh HaShana, the first day of the year 5769, a year of judgment, on the 440th day after you cried out (a full double fast), I ripped them down and gave you a sign of in market fall of 777 exact point Dow Jones Average in one day to let you know that this is of me. The Baals are torn down. Don't rebuild the altar.
The high places are being disgraced. This is not loss, you will not suffer loss, this is purification.
Set aside everything that is not of ME.
All hope and confidence must be placed in ME or it will become idolatry. I will tear down and destroy anything you place above me or in my place. I will remove anything that hinders love. Everything.
Security is only in ME.
I will take away anything that appears to look secure that isn't of ME.
When the enemy attacks, I am your hiding place. Stay under my wings in the secret place.
There will be disasters and confusions. Prepared but not surprised.
THERE WILL BE BLOOD. It was a movie.
Yes, there will, and it's free and it heals. When the time comes be ready to tap into the precious flow. I have provided all you need.
I will never leave you nor forsake you.
No matter how bad it seems. I am always with you.
When the times come, man will not be able to respond. Only I am able.
My judgments on the world and the world system are not harsh nor are they offensive. As you draw closer to me they will seem just and right. Don't judge. The sin in the church will be the sin of offense. If you are offended in me, I will be offended in you.
I started with a cleansing of my Bride, my Body, It is not yet done, judgment must begin and finish in MY house or it is NOT MY HOUSE. The refining fire must continue until you shine as pure gold.


A FINAL WORD OF IMPRESSION
Pray for justice.... Godly Justice. Not as the world sees justice... Justice over unjust balances.
Unjust Judges.
Unjust Rulers.


FINAL WORD FROM THE THRONE
Do not be fearful. Ask of ME in your time of need and fear, "Where is the God of Elijah” and strike the troubled waters with your mantle of anointing.
Then step back and watch as I part those waters.
Spend time cleaving to me and to my true church, spend less time worrying about your personal holiness. I will cleanse you by the washing of the water of my word and sprinkle you with clean water to make you pure. Trust me for your sanctification as you did for your salvation. The accuser of the brethren has nothing against you that hasn't already been made whole and pure in ME.
Lo I am with you ALWAYS.......ALWAYS

God's Word for 2008

In the last several years as the gift of a modern Prophet has manifested more and more I have published what I see and hear from God by the Spirit.

I stand by the accuracy and sometimes misses for the last several years. Unlike many prophets, I leave them in pubic for review and ridicule. To do less would be prophetic dishonesty. The modern prophet operates as encouragement and warning to the Body of Christ. Unlike ancient prophets the requirement for perfection is not part of the gift of the prophet today or the Prophetic ministry gift. As prophets of today, we see thru a glass darkly and see things that are types and shadows. We can only report what God is showing us. Your requirement is to judge it. If you don't understand New Testament prophetic ministry, I won't try to educate you here. I'm also uninterested in going into a theological discussion or debate about the gift and ministry of the Prophet with anyone. People who have experienced and operate in the fullness of the Holy Spirit after receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit have no difficulty understanding and discerning this. If you haven't you will have a much harder time and my gift of the prophetic is to those who have ears to hear coupled with discernment.


Last year's prophetic word has been surprising in it's accuracy. There are areas that I take the blame for missing it because of my flesh or improperly interpreting what I see in the Spirit. God's gift is accurate and for me I am glad without repentance. Sometimes if there is error it's a lack of maturity in the gift as manifested in me or I see something that will happen but not in the timeframe. Some of the prophetic words from 3 or 4 years ago are now coming to pass. I am of the opinion that all prophecy is yea and amen but not always when. My goal is to be faithful to the gift He has placed in me. If God ever withdraws the gift from me I will gladly lay it down. That's only between the Father and Me.



What follows is God's word for 2008 exactly as I have received it and written it down:


GOD'S WORD TO THE CHURCH AND TO BODY OF CHRIST

(recorded first person, in the voice of God)


THE PURGING HAS BEGUN - A WORD FOR THE SHEPHERDS OF MY BODY

There is a widening gulf being created and in fact manifested by My Spirit separating those who are mine from those who are simply showing up for Sunday and seldom seek my Presence otherwise.


In the last several years I have already divided out from you a third of your people. Some were lost. Some were discouraged and left. Some have become occasional. Others are no longer in the fold; shepherds have lost track of them. I will bring them back by allowing much trouble in their lives. You shepherds will have another chance to lead them to the path of repentance and redemption.


There is a further third about to be divided out from those among your flock. This is a painful and seemingly negative thing you must endure. Do not see it as negative. You must separate yourself as a tribe and become holy unto me. I am changing the face of those who are called by My Name in this Generation. They will look like Jesus.


These that are being purged must be removed for revival to be released. They are holding back the move of My Spirit. Shepherds; hear My Words; allow those who are not hungry for revival and renewal to depart in peace, in fact encourage them to either return to their first love or leave. You can no longer afford them in your midst. They have become unholy Leaven in your midst.


I am purging my bride to make her spotless and without wrinkle. She will look very different from what you believe she would look like in your imagination or tradition.


Leaders of Churches and Ministries take heed, reliance on the old ways will lead to disappointment and failure I never intended you to experience. This purging will impact your finances if you continue to rely on the old ways. I will provide, but I will now do it in supernatural ways, provision will come from unexpected places. Even Five Fold Ministers will be purged who refuse to rely on those new ways of provision for the future.


Reliance on financial provision from worldly strategies as you always have you will find you short at years end. Old ways are not my ways in this new move. Behold I make all things new.


The Purging has already begun. You have seen it all around you and have wondered if is this an attack of the Devil. NO! This purging is of me. I am cutting out the infections, the cancers, the rot, the dead flesh, the proud flesh and the disfiguring growths that were not ever meant to be part of my bride. She will be perfect and holy formed in My image.


The essential in this new body is passion and purity. I will not tolerate in 2008 what I did in 2007. The bar is raised again.


This is NOT bad news. This is good news, what will result from this will be the fuel that will catch on fire from spark of my Spirit. It will be magnificent. Beyond what you can imagine. Worldly wisdom from others wrapped up in Christianeze will not be the way I will do this. Ignore those who would instruct and mislead you to say, "this is the way, walk in it". It is not the way. There is only one way. When the purging hits your house give thanks that I have chosen to purify you and yours.

When revival comes it will come to people held to a standard of holiness and passion unseen in most of my Church in the west.



THE THREAT OF ISLAM - SUPERNATURAL REVELATION IS COMING

I am bringing revelation to the body of Christ and to secular America of the evil embodied in Islam when the Demon controlling it is released as it has been. I am mobilizing those who call my name to action, and I am stirring even those who have not yet bowed the knee.

Like music and fashion black culture has been leading America for years. Now, the prophetic image of what has happened in Black Culture is about to happen in the rest of my Body unless those I call stand in the gap.



The black man is most under attack by the demon of Muslim Fanaticism. Young men are being stripped right out of my Church. Men I had my hand on for service in MY kingdom are being deceived and misled by the Demon spirit of Islam. The result is more black men are in the prisons of America than there are black men in all the colleges, universities and seminaries today. The greatness I had for these Men is lost as is the call I had on their lives is perverted by the delusion of Islam in the Prisons. This example is a wake up call to my People.


I will expose this demon for what it is and my call is on men and women who are called by my name to pray to move my hand according to My will. Call on me and I will answer.



THIS IS THE YEAR OF PASSING THE TORCH

My church in the west is now comprised of those who are old, a few passionate middle and many among the audacious young. The young are hungry for more of Me. They will go where they can find Me. The Torch of My fire must be passed. Leaders must see that the torch is passed with intention and preparation for those who take it.


The torch of my spirit will not rest only on the passionate middle leadership I have raised up in this time. It is too much for them alone. They are too few. My Church in the west has lost a whole generation of people missing from my Body. I will not allow that to happen again. The passing of this Torch is essential for revival and renewal to come. My Glory will be held back if not released by this act of intentional preparation and release.


My people as they passed thru the desert to the promised land, some chose not to enter in, there is a generation I have chosen to enter into this new spiritual promised land. It will be a generation sold out without remorse or restraint. This is not a judgment by age, but a judgment by commitment and passion.


The demand of my spirit on those who are preserved from the purging is to become guides and guards of the hearts of those young ones I have prepared for this new move.


I will pour out my spirit on all flesh, I will not be stopped. Those who are mine will come. It will be a move not of man but of my Spirit alone.


This will not look like anything you have ever seen before. Some will say, "this cannot be of God". This will be un-like anything you have ever seen before. "Behold I do a new thing".


There will be those who will attempt to prove that this renewal and revival is not of ME. They will distort my Word to prove this falsehood.


It will be said by them of this outpouring that "This is all wrong". They are deceived and their traditions "have made the Word of God of no effect as they trample the Blood of Jesus underfoot".


True deception is mocking God concerning His truth. "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap"


Trying to tell ME how to accomplish my ends in the earth Mocks God.


The revival, renewal and purging has already begin. The only option I offer for Spiritual Survival during this time of purging is found only in passion for the pure heart of Jesus.




THIS ENDS THE FIRST PERSON VOICE OF GOD SECTION TO THE BODY OF CHRIST


GOVERNMENTAL PROPHETIC VISIONS

In this part of the word of God for 2008 I will speak in the voice of the prophet rather than in the voice of God. What follows is what God has shown me in prayer about what is coming on the earth that he wants to warn and encourage his people through.


This is the year of passing the torch in government.


The election will be held in the fall of 2008. The promise of God this year is that he will put one up and another down. Promotion is of the Lord. Only those the Father chooses to place in authority will be placed there.


Many will be displaced from position in this. Some from death. Some from resignation. Some from scandal. The torch is passing. It is His doing.


The spiritual political landscape is changing. It will not be a total victory for either conservative or liberal issues. The 2006 election that many thought was a revolution has failed, there is no change at all. That will happen again. Politics will become more entangled with the issues of faith. What a person believes will become as important as what he or she proposes in policy.


Atheism that raised it's head, will lower it as quickly as it is shown to be wanting of any answers.


I have received no clear word of who or what will happen in the 2008 elections. That may be by design. Others have received the word, Brown Bag. What that means will yet be known.



GOD'S WORD ON THE CULTURE IN AMERICA

There will be a rebellion in the culture against the invasion of privacy in this year. Cameras and other things accepted in the past will become unacceptable to many.


Gay marriage has run it's course. There will be no further encroachment this year.


Abortion will become exposed as a moneymaking scheme without a heart. It won't stop abortions but it will make the idea that abortionists are people doing good for others out for the lie it is. This evil is at the heart of the judgment of God on America.


Religious bigotry will increase in opposition against the Kingdom of God more than ever before. It will come from places you never thought it would ever come from. It will come not only from atheists and antichristians, but will come from secular nominal Christians. It will come against not only Christians but against the Jewish state as well. The divide between the Whore Church and the pure bride of Christ will intensify.


Moderate Muslims will speak out against radical elements in their religious expressions. It will be too late. Islam is a spirit that at it's core is imperialistic. It cannot coexist with other cultures and faiths.


More and more shame will be brought upon the pop culture and it's pop stars. Not by the church. But by people in media and entertainment. This is a cleansing that must be made.


Newspapers that have been falling in subscription will stabilize. That fall will slow and even stop in 2008. But, print media in magazines will fail in record numbers. Things predicted to change will not change the way experts said they will.


Unrestrained Internet pornography will become more and more invasive globally until a call will be made to control and restrain this plague on the peoples of the earth. That call will come from an unusual place. Not the church. Watch and see.



ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND CHANGES IN 2008

The housing bubble that many feared will wash through the economy with far less effect than anyone thought would be possible. That's God's mercy on us all.


2008 will in large part be considered a Good Year with economic optimism by the end of the year .


The dollar will rebound in 2008. Money will flow into the economy from export sales and investments in the USA of those who hold dollars.


There will be a retrenchment in the value of the stock markets, a correction but less than thought. And it won't last long.


Oil will not hold at the prices it which it is selling today. In real dollars oil will remain a bargain.


Commodity prices retreat in 2008 as the dollar rebounds. The combination of lower commodity prices and a higher dollar will make for positive economic conditions in the USA and around the world.


Interest rates will remain below the average of the last decade. Artificial credit influences will be a dampener of the magnitude of economic recovery.



POLITICAL ECONOMIC FORCES FOR CHANGE

Deep examination of the corporate bought and paid for government we have today will reveal the cancer that exists in high places today. Pray for the exposure to happen without partisan politics as part of the discussion. God is about to shine his light into this dark area. Banking organizations, oil companies, pharmaceutical companies will be exposed for the ungodly influence they have had. There has been an un-Godly effort to pervert justice in the land. The father is going to do some house cleaning in this area.



HEALTH AND WELLBEING PROPHETIC VISION

Many assumptions we have been led to believe are true regarding our health will continue to be overturned this year at an accelerated pace. When you hear of these things you will know this is a freedom making truth.


There are health breakthroughs coming in the areas of

  • Alzheimer's
  • Aids
  • Diabetes
  • Cancers
  • MS
  • and some others.


There has been much seed sown in divine strategies for health that will begin to be harvested in this generation.


The number 8 is the number for new beginnings. Completion came in 2007, those seeds will come to maturity in 2008.


In 2008 nationalized health care will once again prove to have no future in the USA.



ENERGY VISION

As ethanol loses it's luster, other forms of energy not yet imagined or practical will be unveiled.


I have seen a vision of 3 that are on the horizon:

  • New Direct Solar Conversion Technologies
  • Energy from Sea Water
  • Aerobic Conversion of Cellulose by biological reduction

Others will begin to fall into disuse and disrepute as these better technologies are revealed.


There is ONE breakthrough coming in 2008 that will cause us to look back on 2008 in amazement in this area.


Oil extraction technologies will become more and more effective in 2008 – increasing available oil globally to grow to new available levels. Peak oil will once again prove to be a theory of peak easy oil.



WARS AND RUMORS OF WARS

Iraq, by the end of 2008 the warfare in Iraq will have so effectively completed the mission that the next President will be able to bring large numbers of troops home to much applause.


The naysayers about the war will have been silenced.


Al Quieda will slink further off into the caves of Northern Pakistan and leave Iraq. Suicide Bombers, rather than being celebrated, will become an affront to the Iraqi people, both Sunni and Shia. Opposition to this evil will become a unifying force for Iraq.


The new American President will quickly recognized the necessity of keeping American bases in Iraq. America will accept this reality as they did in Japan and Germany. Iraq will become a force for good in time. The USA will maintain permanent bases in Iraq for years to come. It will be a keystone for stability in the whole middle east and welcomed by those in the Middle East.


Once again it will be recognized that the sacrifice and blood of patriots have purchased precious freedom in America. That this war has been and will be a prophetic big bang that those waging and supporting it had no idea it would have.


Turkish incursions into Kurdish Iraq will become troubling. Kurdistan is home of the ancient Medes who still live there. The USA will have a showdown with Turkey over this and Turkey will back down.


Syria will warm up to the USA as the USA takes it's place. Iran's internal forces for regime change will develop a stronger voice and gather influence.


Messianic Jewish Believers will take their recognized place of influence in Israel. This will eventually lead to national leadership, but not in 2008.


Russia's Putin will reach further to build alliances with marginal powers in the world to create distinctives between Russia and the Western World. As the USA goes thru the process of electing a new President, Putin will use this time of uncertainty to solidify his position of power without objection from the USA or the rest of the west.


Europe; with Turkey unstable, the Balkans a renewed stirring powder keg, the emerging Islamic Threat within the European population and a meaner Russian Bear next door most of Europe will do what France and England have already done; Recognize that friendship with the USA and in a way with Canada has benefits.


Great Britain and continental Europe will renew an alliance that seemed to be damaged in the past. The radical left in Europe that tried to destroy that alliance will fall silent as the threats are revealed.


Africa will blossom in some places and dry up in others politically and geographically. Some countries on the continent will become beacons of hope. Others will fall into deeper destruction. It will become more apparent that the solutions needed are spiritual in nature and help must come from inside the countries themselves. The struggle for the soul of Africa has just begun and will become more graphic and intense. Only prayer will save them.


China will continue it's headlong rush into modernity. So will India. There is no reversal. It's economic power is providing a chance for China to become more democratic and capitalistic. While there are many benefits to this, the deficits of unbridled capitalism will become apparent. India and China will show the world a better way. The west will do well to learn the lessons they will teach.


Afghanistan and Pakistan are locked in an epic struggle for survival but in different ways. The issues are different, but the outcomes are the same. Who will control these two countries? The struggle against fundamentalist Islam will be most in this arena for 2008. In the end, the demon of Islam will lose, but not without a fight.


Musharrif and his party will stay in power in Pakistan. There is no one to fill the vacuum in his absence. The assassination of Bhutto seals this. The USA has made an uncomfortable entangling alliance. The outcome of this rests in the hands of the next President.


The episodes of terror and murder around the world are manifestations of the demon present in Islam at it's worst. The bankruptcy of Islam will be revealed by these demonstrations of unbridled evil. What Iraq has learned, what Iran is learning and other middle east countries are watching is that Islam is revealed as a satanic influenced political system shrouded in clerical robes.



NATURAL EVENTS AND JUDGMENTS

Drought is a judgment of God. It always was and always will be. It's not that God is using Drought to punish but to bring people to himself.


In fact, the weather on the earth as it intensifies and puts fear in people's hearts will have the effect of drawing people to the end of themselves. The rain, cold, drought, heat, snow, wind, hurricane, tornadoes, glaciers forming and deforming, increases and decreases in snow pack. God is calling people to himself. He uses natural events to do so.


Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions will increase. The normal we once enjoyed is no longer normal. God's normal is new and it demands our dependence on him and not on our own philosophies and devices. These are birth pangs of a new age of God's Glory being poured out on all flesh.



FINAL WORD

2008 will be a painful difficult year for many. I do not see a direct attack from our enemies in 2008.


I see a joining together of the people of God as he Does what he has said he will do. Denominational separation will decrease as passion for Jesus increases. People will develop clear minds as they focused on Jesus.


The torch must be passed, that is the mandate of God. In some cases he will have to rip it out of people's hands. This will either be a new awaking or a rude awaking. The decision is ours.


The generation of Disciples picking up the torch are better prepared spiritually than any of the generations that preceded them. We of the torch passing generations must impart what we possess and encourage those who bear the fire of God in their hands and in their hearts to become firestarters across the nation.


It's a new day - for the Mouth of the Lord has spoken it.
