A unveiling is happening right now. God is taking the Veil off to purify the Bride for his return.  II Corinthians 3:18 And all of us, as with unveiled face, continued to behold in the word of God as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing spender and from one degree of glory another; for this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.

God is transforming his remnant to follow his commands . We must speak his word and walk in Gods purity. God is changing our atmosphere are we going to change with him. We must walk with the Lord at all times. We must seek his will and repent of all sin. For time coming soon where man will fear his life and tremble in the face of disaster. God is shaking the ground we stand on. We must obey and listen to his every word. Are lives depending on it? There are false teachings, false prophets who are influenced by the Anti-Christ spirit. We must be careful and always follow the word of the Lord.

The Lord has shown me another Hurricane coming that will hit the USA. Category 5 Her Name will mean Furious (Angry) I see the tornadoes touching down at multitude of places at the same time. The strength will go off the charts. I have seen Hail the sizes of 500 pound Rock Size Hail. Large Hail! It's larger than recorded in history. I have seen Black mushroom cloud over New York some where in the downtown area. This mushroom cloud comes from the ground to the sky.

I also seen air-crafts grounded, because missiles were threatening our LAND. “Jesus we fall on our knees and ask you to guide us and protect us from the things, which are coming on the earth.  God I pray that your people will make wake up and arise out of slumber.  For your trumpets our sounding and your angels have been released for battle. The time has come to gather the Harvest for REFUGE.”

For the World & United States-

Isaiah 59: 13 Rebelling against and denying the Lord, turning away from following our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving in and muttering and moaning from the heart words of falsehood. 14 Justice is turned away backward, and righteousness (uprightness cannot enter the courts of justice). 15 Yes, truth is lacking, and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.  And the Lord saw it, and it displeased Him that there was NO JUSTICE.

There is No more Justice, No more Righteousness.

God forgives us of our sins. We can turn, repent and seek God's face and see some these things stopped. We must repent before it is to late.

This is the prophetic time in which GOD IS SHIFTING THINGS IN HIS CHURCH! Those who will hear God and walk in love and forgiveness and live in holiness, they will run with the FRESH FIRE of God will see the LAST GREAT MOVE OF GOD!. They the remnant of God, the TRUE CHURCH. They are the front runners in the race to save souls in the last days. Remember: Our gifts and talents for God, equals SOULS!

The Lord has put on my heart that soon God's glory will be poured out as heaven and earth line-up with God's purpose in hearts of His sons and daughters in the earth. Luke 11:2 "And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven , so in earth." When God lines earth up with heaven, then God's glory will come as a blazing fire in the earth!

June 17th, 2005 while traveling as a passenger van from Berlin, Germany to
Osnabruck, Germany, the Lord showed me an open vision. We had began to pray for our meeting in Osnabruck when the three ladies in the back seat started to pray in the spirit in tongues.  They were all in unity speaking in the heavenly language. I felt darts hitting my back and bounce through my body. All of sudden I am not in the van. I am in a place that I could see heaven. I heard trumpets and saw two angels with trumpets on each side of this beautiful gate.  They sounded like the Shofar. Then I realized it was heaven. The gates came open when the trumpets are sounding. It was like heaven was opening up and releasing something in the atmosphere. I saw two chariots with angels holding the reigns of the white horses come through the open gate.

Then the Trumpets sounded and echoed from heaven to earth. My eyes
could see high-ranking angels marching to heavens beat.  They were the
warring angels for the last days, to reap the harvest of souls. As the
trumpets got louder more angels were released from heaven. There were
thousands upon thousands of Angels and they were prepared to fight for us. I saw them holding weapons in their hands, some of the angels were holding items I have never seen on earth before. Some angels held bowls and others were holding rods. The angels started flying all in rows from heaven to earth.

Then suddenly I am back in the van.  I look behind out the window and see an intense fire blazing from behind the van. Then suddenly I find myself floating over the van and I see thousands of angels following us with fire marking their trail.

Then I was taken into throne room of God. I saw Glory flowing down from the throne room of God.  I saw what appeared to be heavy oil that appeared like liquid gold, yet it was clear and pure. The oil steamed like it was hot.  Like Fire! The oil was so holy, so very holy and it came from heaven dropped down on earth and everything it touched burned up in blazing fire.

The Lord showed me more of this open vision of Heaven and earth when I was back in the US. I saw blood covering the earth and the cries of the saints
reached heaven. When cries aligned with Heaven, Heaven shook.  Fire came out of heaven and it hits earth.  I saw red liquid flow out of heaven hit the
ground.

Mathew 13:39
..the reapers are the angels.  King James Version
Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their
father, Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. Matthew 13: 43
..I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the
world. Mathew 13:35

Romans 8:21-23 (The Message) 22-25 All around us we observe a pregnant creation. The difficult times of pain throughout the world are simply birth pangs. But it's not only around us; it's within us. The Spirit of God is arousing us within. We're also feeling the birth pangs. These sterile and barren bodies of ours are yearning for full deliverance. That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.

Do you ever wonder why we have dreams?  Sometimes the dreams are good and sometimes they can make us sad.  Dreams can allow us to see things that we wouldn't imagine on our own.  I believe that God shows us these things through our dreams to encourage us and even to warn us of the future. This is my diary that is being written for eyes to see and ears to hear.

Awake up in my comfortable cozy bed. I just want to stay in bed a little bit longer.  I turn on the television and see the Fox news come on reporting on the top news of the day. A major earthquake has struck the middle of the United States .  They can't confirm the causalities, because the air has created a mountain of clouds cover most of the cities. I could see the Mississippi river going backwards.  How can that be? I looked closer on to the television screen.  I could see the map of the US and see the fault line where the earthquake occurred.  The dream took me into dream within a dream.  I could see this beautiful town with the sky clear sunny day.  Suddenly the ground begins to shake and the buildings begin to sway. I saw the outer rim of the town land began to crack open.  The crack started to form almost a full circle around this town. Then the town started to drop in elevation.  The ground underneath this town gave way and the town dropped into this whole.  From the air it looked like the earthquake swallowed this town.  I could hear a person say, “The earth opened and swallowed the whole town. Is this mother nature's wrath?”

Catastrophic Event:   Could it happen?  

A few months ago I had a dream that was quite frightening.  Could you imagine being in one state during a mega storm.  A storm that could potential kill many people.  I saw hale the size of 500 pound rock boulders.  In this storm the clouds were dark and the feeling was frightening.  This storm covered many states at one time.  I saw in one state it being covered with Mega Tornadoes.  So many that it wiped out a whole state.

Catastrophic Event:  Could it happen?

On July 2 nd , I saw three missiles hit Portland , Oregon .  I a fourth missile get shot down in the air.  In my mind I am wondering are we being attacked.  Is there a plan for the US to be taken over by ………..? Who do you think??

To be continued.

CAN YOU BLESS THOSE WHO HAVE SINNED?

Am I A Remnant of

God, or Am I A Pharisee?

 

CAN YOU BLESS THOSE WHO HAVE HURT YOU OR HURT SOMEONE CLOSE TO YOU? CAN YOU BLESS THEM FROM YOUR HEART? Can you pass the test? "Are we on the Lord's side by walking in love and forgiveness?" Are you a remnant of God or are you a Pharisee?

This is a question I have asked myself over and over for many years. We often think of a Pharisee as some far off character that rarely applies to today's Christian world, when in fact there are more leaders and sheep manifesting in a Pharisaic spirit than ever before. So what is a remnant of God and what is a Pharisee? Since Jesus was so angry with the religious, then we had better not act like them in our own life. I don't want God to be angry with my attitude, like He was with the Pharisees. God spoke to my heart that many people are bound by this religious spirit because they don't understand how it operates through people. So let's make understanding spirit simple, so we defeat it.

A close friend recently brought more revelation to this question. She said, “The religious church people wear me out, they drain me.” I told her, “When I am around the remnant of God I feel full of life after I have talked with them and spent time with them.” This is true that the Pharisee spirit drains life out of our spirits and the remnant brings life to our spirit. Romans 8:2
For the law of the Spirit of life [which is] in Christ Jesus [the law of our new being] has freed me from the law of sin and of death . Maybe that is one more reason that Jesus fought, and confronted that spirit with such fervor. Jesus was free, He refused to come under bondage.

Jesus was ever dealing with that spirit on earth. They always wanted to bring judgments to what Jesus was doing for His Father. They became angry when He declared who He was and boldly stepped out doing what Father God led Him to do. Imagine that, Jesus moved out without getting permission from the Pharisees. This made the Pharisees angry. They wanted every move to be done with their permission and blessing. Jesus never asked for permission of the Pharisees.

Remember that those were the Pastors and leaders of that day. Many church leaders today will become very angry if you do anything that Father God tells us to do without their permission or blessing. I know there are wonderful Pastors like, Tommy Barnett of Phoenix First Assembly who love to encourage everyone to do the will of God. If you have that kind of Pastor, then you are blessed!

1. A Pharisee wants to control of your life.

The Remnant of God does not want to control, but encourage you in your walk in God's will for your own life.

2. A Pharisee displays outbursts of anger. They have a deep-rooted insecurity that demands that others do only as they say. If you don't get their permission and do it their way or if they feel they are losing control then they display their anger.

The Remnant is secure, and they do not mind that you don't do everything they want or recommend. But they understand that following God's leading is the most important thing anyone can do.

3. A Pharisee lacks love towards the people. But rather they think it's their duty find fault with others and they will bring accusations without trying to find out the truth first. They are more concerned about their feelings, than the feelings of others and they want others to follow the rules they have set in their minds, rather encouraging others to walk in love and to follow the voice of God in their own life.

The Remnant has love towards people and they understand that love is the most important thing and they find it easy to support others. For them it is a high priority to walk in love towards others and support God's voice to them personally.

4. A Pharisee loves to tell people what they think they did for God and feel they are the rare person who is doing it right and they feel they can be an example to others.

A Remnant is humble about the work they do for the Lord. They are not looking for a platform to tell others, but quietly live their life as a quiet and peaceful example of God's love.

5. A Pharisee loves to do works. Doing works and acts or any spiritual activity such as praying and they love to be seen by others and to tell others what they did. They decide what is more important, yet have a problem clearly hearing God's voice and obeying. Instead they are full of imaginations based out of insecurity, not based out of truth. Also they expect everyone to do whatever they claim is the "so-called" voice of God. People with this Pharisee spirit are more concerned about pleasing a man or a pastor or even themselves than they are God. Some may even hear God's voice, but when a man injects his ideas, then they drop what God said to them and they follow the voice of a man instead.

A Remnant is not concerned about man's programs and prodigal, or even how man thinks they should do things, but they are very concerned about hearing God's voice and doing their best to obey God.

6. A Pharisee is full of pride. They are critical of every fault and sin in others lives, but act like they are good example to follow and they feel they are doing things right and others are not.

The remnant know that they are a sinner saved by God's grace and they are willing to give grace to others when they fall into sin.

7. A Pharisee wants to be honored. A Pharisee wants others to give allegiance to them or their church or organization and they have a “only my way" attitude. They feel deeply that their way is the only way. If you dare to challenge them, dare to have some ideas or impute then just like Pharisees did to Jesus, they will aim to kill you with their hateful words such as, “They are not under a leadership. They are rebellious and they are not in unity.” They become very angry and hateful and then turn and blame everyone else but themselves for their own bad attitude and anger and false accusation based out of their own insecurity because they fear losing control. That only proves that God was never in control in the first place.

Remnants do not need to be honored by man. They know that the fear of man is a dangerous trap, but when they trust in God they are safe. They know deep within themselves that they just one part of the whole body of Christ. They know unity is hearing God's voice and walking in love, (not obeying man) and are satisfied in doing their part, but they are not concerned about rules and regulations and programs. The remnant care about God's purpose and they know it only comes by allowing God to move in us and to lead us in our own life. They are willing to encourage others in what God has spoken. The remnant run from those who try to control them, for they understand that they can only obey the voice of God and they are committed that only God and His Holy Spirit will have control in their life.

Do you know someone who is accusing you right now? Have you even been accused in the past? Do you remember how that feels? Have you ever been put down and belittled by someone? Pride always has to put down someone, so they can feel good about themselves. Pride drains life, in an attempt to fill their own emptiness. We need to remember it's a evil spirit speaking through a man or women) We are not fighting a man, but a spirit. Ephesians 6:12
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers , against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

Back in the late 90's I was at a CBA convention and while promoting the book, "More Than A Conqueror," written by Howard Bell, I met Jim Bakker. He had just fallen in love with Lori who soon became his wife. He was so happy that God was restoring his life and I was happy for him. Recently I was talking with someone about how God was using Jim Bakker again to minister to people through television. Then that angry Pharisee spirit rose up out of someone's mouth. “He hurt so many people.” (It was like, how dare this man try to do anything for God after he fell into sin and was sent to prison.) The remnant will be quick to give grace to the sinners, just like Jesus did with the woman who fell into sin and the Pharisees were about ready to stone her to death. How did you respond when Jimmy Swaggart fell in sin, and then again a 2nd time? I was working for minister at that time that was a close friend to Jimmy Swaggart at the time he fell in sin the 2nd time and Jimmy called the office and I answered the phone. I will never forget sound of the grief in Jimmy Swaggart's voice. Ministers were running away from him in masses, but one minister I knew reached out to him. How did you respond? How did you respond when Jim Bakker fell? The Pharisee spirit always wants people to choose sides. But the real question is, "Are we on the Lord's side by walking in love and forgiveness?"

Many Pharisees today stone sinners with their words. But it is up to us to allow God's spirit to give grace, just as God has given grace to us. God Bless you Jim Bakker! Jim and Lori Bakker be blessed and do the work of the Lord until He returns! God Bless you Jimmy Swaggart! Satan is in the business of accusing the brethren. God is in the business of love and restoration!

We can pray to help delay things that is about to happen on earth.  There are terrible weather patterns coming. There will be tornadoes that will break history records.  Hail that falls from the clouds in record sizes.  I see great terrible weather being unleashed on earth coming from the East. I do see a terrible earthquake starting in San Francisco that will destroy everything in its path. I see freeways made of concrete splitting in half. I see the earth cracking open with gases being released from the ground that will kill living creatures on earth if they go near it.  I see Mountains being moved completely out of place and demolished.  I see great mourning in New York for many lives are in danger.  I see black clouds covering this state. 

There is no reason to fear for what is coming on the earth, because we trust in the Lord. Through Jesus, all things are possible. Get ready, "PREPARE" to step in God's glory and authority. Our greatest days on earth are just ahead!

2 Timothy 1:7
For God has not give n us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. Mark 13:8
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.
John 14:12
[ The Answered Prayer ] “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.

Great Changes in the Weather:

Prophetic Vision In The Future

The Lord spoke to my heart that many people would be set free as they read this article.

WHAT IS GOD SPEAKING TO HIS CHURCH?

Recently I have heard a theme running through men and women of God and what the Lord is speaking to his church right now. What is coming soon, and I believe what is happening right now to the body of Jesus Christ.

1. There is a warning to believers in Jesus Christ to walk in love, greater than ever have before.
2. God is defining and exposing the spirit(s) that have divided His church. Ephesians 6:12
3. Repentance & judgment of leaders in the church & people in His church (Especially those who expose and judge others.)
4. God is promoting His people and His leaders who show great love and great forgiveness.
5. For those who walk in great love and forgiveness and refuse to speak negative of any person on earth (any person God has created), God's glory and favor will rest great on their life. They show great faith and love by loving the sinner, yet hating sin.

 

God is cleaning house and I want my house swept clean.

I cannot get away from what I see as why God is bringing repentance and judgment. The theme that is coming across loud and clear is L-O-V-E . Love to each other, love for ALL OUR SISTERS AND BROTHERS IN CHRIST and not just those we agree with. These are the three Spirits I have heard emphasized & exposed to a deeper level recently and the Lord has spoken and showed me a deeper level of the "Pharisee" or Religious spirit and how it has crept into the church today:

1. SPIRIT OF LEVIATHAN

2. SPIRIT OF MURDER (CAIN)

3. RELIGIOUS SPIRIT (PHARISEE)

What is dividing the church? Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers , against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

1. Leviathan

Job 3:8
Let those curse it who curse the day, who are skilled in rousing up Leviathan.

This is a twisting, spirit that perverts the truth and divides, even the very purpose and plan of God for your life and others.

There is something very evil in judging a righteous man as Job was. Job had friends who made judgments on his life and why he was suffering and God's anger was against Job's friends. Job prayed for his friends.

PRAY & FORGIVE THOSE WHO MAKE JUDGMENTS AGAINST YOU, WHETHER THEY ARE TRUE OR FALSE. Forgiveness is an ongoing action.

2. Cain

Cain killed his brother. Genesis 4: 5 But for Cain and his offering He had no respect or regard. So Cain was exceedingly angry and indignant , and he looked sad and depressed. 6 And the Lord said to Cain, Why are you angry? And why do you look sad and depressed and dejected? 7 If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin crouches at your door; its desire is for you, but you must master it .

Jealousy provoked in Cain, made him angry and depressed. (Depression is anger suppressed) We would not murder with a gun or knife, but with words . When we get angry with a sister or brother, then we speak negative words about someone – that's murder. If we do not master our anger it turns to depression and ends in MURDER.

Bless everyone brother and sister. Master your anger & depression, before you murder with your mouth.

BLESS YOUR BROTHER/SISTER IN CHRIST & ASK THE LORD TO HELP MAKE YOUR WORSHIP & OFFERING PLEASING TO HIM.

3.  Pharisee

The Pharisee leads others to themselves or their group and their ways, and not into a personal relationship with God.

Matthew 23:15
"You're hopeless, you religion scholars and Pharisees! Frauds! You go halfway around the world to make a convert, but once you get him you make him into a replica of yourselves, double-damned.(Fit for Hell)

A Pharisee spirit wants to plan for your destruction, your downfall.

Matthew 12:14
But the Pharisees went out and held a consultation against Him, how they might do away with Him.

A Pharisee attributes the works of the Holy Spirit and the move of God to satan.

Matthew 12:24
But the Pharisees, hearing it, said, This Man drives out demons only by and with the help of Beelzebub, the prince of demons. Matthew 9:34
But the Pharisees said, He drives out demons through and with the help of the prince of demons. (Even if we do not understand it, we had better not judge it.)

A Pharisee – Fault finder) always points out faults, or someone who is doing different than their own rules they have set.

Matthew 12:2
And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to Him, See there! Your disciples are doing what is unlawful and not permitted on the Sabbath.

A Pharisee puts great emphasis on money and little importance on doing Right, being Just or showing Mercy.

Matthew 23:23
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, pretenders (hypocrites)! For you give a tenth of your mint and dill and cummin, and have neglected and omitted the weightier (more important) matters of the Law--right and justice and mercy and fidelity. These you ought [particularly] to have done, without neglecting the others.

A Pharisee preys and takes advantage of the weak and innocent ones and then covers it up in a religious activity.

Matthew 23:14
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, pretenders (hypocrites)! For you swallow up widows' houses and for a pretense to cover it up make long prayers; therefore you will receive the greater condemnation and the heavier sentence.

A Pharisee judges his actions against your actions, and condemns you.

Matthew 9:14
Then the disciples of John came to Jesus, inquiring, Why is it that we and the Pharisees fast often, [that is, abstain from food and drink as a religious exercise], but Your disciples do not fast?

A Pharisee demands exclusive allegiance to himself and does encourage those who want to draw close to the Lord by prayer and relationship and fellowship with the Lord on the daily and personal basis.

Matthew 23:13
But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, pretenders (hypocrites)! For you shut the kingdom of heaven in men's faces; for you neither enter yourselves, nor do you allow those who are about to go in to do so.

How can we stay far from this spirit?

John 14:31
I do only what the Father has instructed Me to do. [I act in full agreement with His orders. James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

1 John 3:14
We know that we have passed over out of death into Life by the fact that we love the brethren (our fellow Christians). He who does not love abides (remains, is held and kept continually) in [spiritual] death .

Romans 2:1
THEREFORE YOU have no excuse or defense or justification, O man, whoever you are who judges and condemns another. For in posing as judge and passing sentence on another, you condemn yourself, because you who judge are habitually practicing the very same things [that you censure and denounce].

Judging with our words only exposes our own sin. Knowing that judging brings judgment to our own lives, should be enough to put the fear of God in our hearts, but if we don't trust enough that God will straighten every unjust thing out in the end , then we tend to hold a judgment in our heart. Out of the heart, the mouth speaks. Wait long enough and you will see a man's heart by the words they speak to you.

Proverbs 4:23
Keep and guard your heart with all vigilance and above all that you guard, for out of it flow the springs of life.

In everything we do and say, there should be life flowing out of us. We cannot lose the life spring out of our heart. James 3:11
Does a fountain send forth [simultaneously] from the same opening fresh water and bitter?
