Father in Heaven, I come to the foot of the cross of Christ Jesus, the ultimate lamb dying for my sins, and others who have accepted Him, and believed in Him. Father this Nation as well as I personally have sinned against you, praying only for those who we feel need to be prayed for. Dear God, I pray that you search my soul and those of others, that we may find favor in you, and enter our realm in life so we can reach others foremost by sharing the salvation of Christ Jesus. My Lord, I believe there is a reason for this chaos, this division and war against good ad evil , your world clearly says, you allow for events to happen, for you have the first, the last, the beginning and the end, in preparation for your children; and in your time, you will reveal your plan, and all we have to do is believe in you, be faithful to your word. Father I pray that you walk among us and open the eyes of those who are calling good, evil, and touch their souls to SEE Your ways and Your Love for them. Forgive us Lord, I pray in Christ name….Amen.

The last words of Jesus to His disciples before He went back to heaven was, “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:19 I believe Jesus still heals and imparts the gift of prophecies, but I agree, it should be with the preaching of the Gospel and repentance from sin. Thanks for sharing this message.

Yeshua said that if people didn’t repent, they would all likewise perish. Can it get any more clear than that?

Thank God for this prophetic word! “Repent”is the first word of the Gospel! Matthew 4:17, Acts 2:38!

The matter of true repentance by the body of Christ and the entire leadership has been on my heart for several years. May the Holy Spirit pierce the hearts of many believers to turn away from seeking signs and wonders to the cross and Jesus resurrection which offers us true salvation. Before any revival has ever happened throughout history, there has been a great spirit of repentance in the hearts of believers to turn away from sin and to walk in holiness before God. When believers recognize their sin and come humbly before the Lord in true repentance, the power of real signs and wonders will follow when these are done to glorify Almighty God–not ourselves.

My prayer is that the body of Christ will bow humbly before the Lord, asking for forgiveness and restoration. When that occurs, God will hear our prayers as they pour forth as incense to the throne room of heaven. Father, may Thy will be done.

Yes, I agree, this has been on my heart for many years. The Church is in trouble. Times of refreshing and happiness and power will come when we have repentance and righteous living again. The enemy has a stronghold that CAN be released. My life was saved many times because preachers or friends or missionaries required of me to repent and change. A major part of the Gospel message is repentance. And the Bible teaches holiness and righteous living. But who is preaching repentance and righteous living in the churches today? Waiting and waiting for this. Grieving but feeling hopeful for the future.

And what are we suppose to repent from? Jesus was very clear about what people needed to repent from when he walked on the earth. He gave specific examples. I know many Christians who go to church every Sunday and Bible studies and then fall away or have children who fall away and live carnal lifestyles and dont care. They are Christians who insist on living with the standards of the world, and some defend an immoral lifestyle vehemently as freedom in Christ. They dont even know what is immoral and moral anymore. They have lost Biblical standards of thought and action.

And few are bold enough to ask us to repent from specific sins. There would be spiritual violence and gnashing of teeth if repentance were preached today. Who is willing to battle through to deliver the church? Dating around for the fun of it, having boyfriends and girlfriends, meeting with the opposite sex alone in precarious situations, drinking alcohol, junk food and soft drinks regularly, going to movies, watching movies on TV, loving Disneyland and buying from Amazon, dancing while others watch them, divorce divorce divorce, wearing bathing suits, singing in the choir with tight blouses and tight short skirts, preaching on stage with tight pants and muscles bulging through t-shirts, not vigilantly protecting and defending purity and treasuring virginity, playing music in church that damages ears, dancing in church on stage with skimpy clothes and sexy seductive voices, fighting abortion but not promoting abstinence before marriage which prevents abortion, putting children in government institutions with curriculum that brainwashes children into atheism and carnal living, taking families to dirty immoral restaurants instead of preparing healthy godly meals at home, hiring house keepers, gardeners, nail salons and massage parlors, etc etc.

The alter call asks for the lost to come forward to confess and be saved but the alter call can also be for Christians to repent and clean up and then be re-disciplined for a new life. We should teach Christian disciplines at church again! Make it exciting, peaceful, challenging and do-able. Getting tired of always trying to recover what we lost. Recovery programs instead of discipleship programs. Exciting testimonies of recovery instead of victorious testimonies of spiritual endurance. Concerts and cave churches and sports events are needed to recover the youth we are losing. How can we prepare for victory instead of loss and recovery?

Training for righteous living– we CAN live godly lives, we can be those who are successful overcomers and are trained for righteousness and victory. We can live in submission to God’s Word and the power of the Holy Spirit. Hebrews 10:39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.

Righteousness brings spiritual power, builds the spiritual armor strong and allows our prayers to be heard by the Lord.

OMGoodness! I have been receiving IFA messages for some time now but today, I found this mailing in my spam mailbox. satan is a liar! Jesus said this is so and I agree. Just today, I was sharing Christ’s message with some family members of how we must live the Word of God, repent and obey God. If we sin, repent! Repentance is our salvation. I pray that we share the full Gospel with others. That is, you are loved but you must repent for the Kingdom of God is upon us. God loves every one of us but He cannot help us if we do not repent so that He can restore us back to Him.

But who forget “repentance” as part of the Gospel needs to be more fully explained, because we are not saved by repentance but by faith in Jesus, though that is supposed to lead to repentance, so that we do not continue in them. Let us be careful not to condemn multitudes in the Church who are not “perfect” in all of their ways (in thought, word and deed); or who get drawn into sin, but do not normally live in it. For that, we have First John where at 1:8 and 1:9 he tells us that if we say we have no sin we lie; but if we confess our sin, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sin, and to cleanse us of all of our unrighteousness. So, we see here that God’s people in the NT are not without sin, but are saved by their faith in Jesus, so that God reckons to them the righteousness of Jesus (Romans 4:21-24), and by not living in sin or practicing sin as the norm (Hebrews 10:26-27), but staying confessed up and repented up, as repentance is expected of those who confess. This dream references Matthew 7:21-24 without saying so: in 21, Jesus tells us who goes to Heaven, those “who do (or live out) the will of My Father who is in heaven.” However, John makes it loudly clear that no one is perfect while here, and Paul makes it clear that being sanctified or scrubbed up, is a process (Romans 12:2), though how long does it take to see that sexual sins are forbidden? In our embrace of the Law for righteousness, let us not forget that the righteousness of Jesus in a legal sense has been imputed to us, because we believe in Him, and that righteousness is what takes us to Heaven. We just simply are not under the Law for salvation, says Paul, though if we choose to live in sin God cannot be mocked and we will reap corruption from what we sow, and if we willfully embrace sin, while knowing about Jesus coming to free us from sin, the sacrifice of Jesus for sin no longer covers us (Hebrews 10:26-27). The Law for Christians is a Teacher of the righteousness that God wants of us. But you cannot apply all of the Old Covenant or Testament, as much of it was abolished and held out of the New Covenant. Temple worship, Temple sacrifice for sin, Temple Priests and Priesthood, and Temple Tithing were all abolished; Jesus became the sacrifice for sin, and Believers became the Temple of God, in whom the Spirit came to dwell. So, let us be careful here about which OT Laws we are required to obey. (The food laws were abolished, too.) In the NT, we are saved by grace by faith, or by faith by grace; though we cannot live as lawbreakers do, for that would be living in an affront to God, and as an affront to God. But IF we sin, John says, the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us of all sin, if we confess our sin and leave it behind.

I believe that is a dream straight from The Throne Room of God YHWH. It is appropriate right now. The Holy Ghost is not just a Comforter but also The Spirit of Truth that points to The Cross of Yeshua and will reprove of sin, righteousness and judgment.Any message not pointing to repentance and the need for Salvation,is not the true Gospel. Not only John The Baptist but Yeshua HaMashiach, Himself preached repentance ! Those not telling the people the need for Salvation, which includes repentance are accountable.Those receiving the miracles are accountable to receive the Gift Giver and repentance is necessary. The greatest gift ,the greatest miracle is still Salvation which cost Yeshua HaMashiach everything to pay the price for our sins.

Calling for repentance is the work John the Baptizer did. When the person repented they were baptized as a sign. The leaders who came for a ritual did not repent nor were they baptized. This truth is ABSOLUTELY correct. Repentance is the lifestyle of a follower of Jesus Christ. We were born into a world of evil. It surrounds us. To remain pure and holy requires daily repentance because it is a command of our God, whom we love and obey. Even unforgiveness is disobedience and can send one to hell.

Disturbing for sure but not inconsistent with Scripture. I did some preaching in churches on about 20 occasions though I have no official degrees and one of my best sermons I believe gleaned from scripture is that God’s people are those “who love Him and obey His commandments”, That is specifically stated at least a dozen times in Scripture. Clearly the Law doesn’t save us but Isaiah 42:21, which I happen to run across in the Bible again today during my Sabbath quiet time, states that God “…was pleased for His righteousness sake to make the Law great and glorious.” Clearly we cannot keep the full law for even the apostles tell us they weren’t basing their salvation on it in Galatians 2:16 but on the other hand God rightfully expects us to live a holy lifestyle that both honors and represents Him. How complicated are we making this thing?

Amen a thousand times! Amen. Lord I repent of any sins in word thought or deed.

Repentance is not preached anymore. That’s why when I share that Jesus forgave me all my sins. He paid for our sins, many today don’t even think they are sinners. Some do but think oh God is love he would never send anyone to Hell. I say Jesus says otherwise. I have encountered also those who claim to be Christians on YouTube saying there is no eternal torment. Jesus says otherwise. Fear the Living God and turn to Jesus. Repent of your sins!

Thank you for sharing this article. This is the pattern of people being deceived by the greatest deceiver, Satan, the Father of lies. When we are deceived we do not know it. This is a constant battle as a follower of Christ. We are to compare everything to God’s Word for truth.
When he said “I never knew you,” their focus was on the gifts instead of being in right relationship with God. The whole Bible is the instructions on how to be in relationship to God. (I do not say this bevy I don’t think you know this, but so you know where I am coming from.) My experience in my own life, in other Christians lives and most churches I have been to is we forget our number one priority: to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength.
In Luke 10:20 Jesus said, “However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” The highest priority is eternity in heaven with God.

Concerning being an intercessor God has placed a similar burden on my heart. As intercessors, watchmen on the wall, we stand in the Gap between God and man. The scripture I have been meditating on in regards to this is:
Psalm 106:23 & 24 -So He said He would destroy them—had not Moses, his chosen one, stood in the breach before him to keep his wrath from destroying them.

If we turn to Deuteronomy 9 we read what Moses actually did to stand in the breach. Moses had just fasted for forty days and forty nights. Then he went back up the mountain while it was ablaze with fire. Deut. 9:25 I lay prostrate before the Lord those fourth day’s and forty nights because the Lord had said he would destroy you.
What I took away from this is:
-Time spent fasting.
-Time spent in God’s presents focusing on him.

Our main focus is to be God and what he is doing.

I recently visited a church. the ministry preached that once you repented and God accepted you, you never needed to worry about future transgressions; for he would never turn from you. There was nothing about continuing to repent any transgressions, & attempting always to be more godly person living in the Christ light. implied was: all you have to do is receive the miracle and declare once and relax. I was disturbed by this attempt to coddle parishioners & remove them from responsibility. your dream made me feel I was an observer of what your dream fortold.God bless you. I believe we must keep our faith solid and pure.continuing to live in Christ’s light.

This partial Gospel preaching is going on in Churches all over America now and has been for several years.
I have NOT heard a sermon stressing old time going to the altar with true Repentance, not a corporate, repeat after me…now you are Saved?
I haven’t heard a sermon about being filled with the Holy Spirit in a long time either. Yet Pastor says we are in revival. Really? Where are the Signs and Wonders? I can see this dream coming true now, it is very sad.
My heart breaks every time I hear a “feel good,” “itching ears” “sermon”, GOD Loves you no matter what you do,we are under grace.
In John the Baptist’s sermon he said, “Repent, Repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”
2Peter 3:9 The Lord is…(extraordinarily) patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to Repentance.

I grew up in the Catholic Church where the focus was on sin and works. I am 73 now so things may have changed and I know it’s the same there as with any church that there are different priests with different focuses. But I know people in my age group always knowingly talk about that “ Catholic guilt”. So it was so wonderful and to me so unbelievable that God could love me personally and I could know I was saved. It took a long time to really believe and feel that I didn’t have to do anything and Jesus did it all and it wasn’t just head knowledge but I had actual feelings finally that went with what the word of God says. That being said when the message of God’s love only is being preached, it is ok to help them realize how much God loves them to send Jesus to die for them , but hey wait a minute he died for our sins so what happened to the sin part. It seems like we go from one extreme to the other. That is why we have people who call themselves Christians voting for politicians who support things opposed to what scripture says is right and wrong. That is why so many Christians live the wrong worldly lifestyle. Even in the ministries with gifting and signs and healings the question to ask I feel is what is the heart motive- is it all about me- if I don’t see my healing or miracle, will I still love Jesus , will I still thank Him for my salvation which is the greatest miracle, will I desire to walk in Holiness and worship Him no matter what?

God loves. Jesus loves. That is a redeeming message of Christ and those who follow Him…but it isn’t THE message…rather, a deep repentant heart ready to be on your face at any given moment…we should live in a repentant state of heart always…never taking for granted His mercy, His grace and our obedience to His instructions clearly and succinctly spoken of in His holy word. God is holy…His son Jesus Christ is holy. We, as believers, have our precious Holy Sprit to teach us always the way of truth in the Gospel. We are to be partakers of His righteousness and be in this world but not of it…we are not to find satisfaction in the things of this world that draw us away from the real yearning in our hearts which is to seek after that which is not of this world…by faith alone…we pant after our Creator and the knowledge of our being chosen and called. We need to know that God is sovereign in everything He says and does and is altogether holy.

I believe there is some truth in this, how ever let us remember there is a ditch on either side of the road!
We know the Holy Spirit is grieving because some Christians have grown cold. But there are still many Christians whose hearts are on the right paths. We should always bow in repentance and pray prayers of repentance for others who have been led astray. God is not just judging harshly, In His love He is wooing people back into His presence, the prodigals are coming home and He welcomes them with warm open arms. He has a perfect will and a permissible will, we should always be praying that His perfect will be done in people’s lives.
Please share the message of hope in a redemptive manner that will give people a desire to come back to Christ. If you doom people to hell you may be placing a curse on their life and then satan will deceive them even more. We don’t need to play God, He is able to take care of people it is His job to curse them to hell, and not ours.

I post this verse frequently when trying to teach the true Kingdom gospel:

Revelation 2:5
Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen (from grace) and REPENT, and do the first works (baptism to wash the spots off) or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick (second death) out of his place, except thou REPENT.

Yes, most pastors will be destroyed! I was appointed by Father Yhovah and anointed into service by Lord Immanuel to restore the true Kingdom gospel for the last time in this Earth age. Every pastor that Father told me to send a Book to, NEVER RESPONDED! I was told they had failed a test. Spiritual leaders have too much pride to admit they are deceived into teaching falsely.

This dream and prophesy resonated in my soul. Even in my own quest to be “healed” from my cancer I have learned that is much more important to want and seek “the healer” Jesus Christ than to receive a temporary, earthly healing. If I am being driven by the miracle or relief of disease than I may be missing the blessing and joy of growing thru adversity with my savior. I’m not saying that it’s not ok to ask… Jesus tells us to ask, seek and knock but never for a moment replacing Him for the miracle. Your prophetic dream is spot on…for those with the gift of healing it must be a complete, soul and body experience. This is their responsibility To perform. Whole restoration…of the mind, body and spirit.

These people are living under the Law as is described by Luke in Acts 17:30 and by Paul in Romans 3:25 stating that God “winked” (“overlooked much of human sin and ignorance of Himself”. Quote from “Life In The Spirit Study Bible) at but now commanded all men every where to repent.. .He hath appointed a day, in the which He will judge the world in righteousness by that MAN whom He has ordained…” If King Asa of Judah had lived since the Cross he to would have been judged by the Cross and would not have been “winked” by God. Neither will those who are ignoring the Heart of the Gospel, which is repentance; repentance for them and for those who are listeners.

The “feel good,” watered down, messages have bothered many of us, for a long time. Years ago, when you went to church, you came out convicted of sin in your life, today, you just come out! Many young people have never heard repentance or sin preached about! Yet, these are many of the prominent preachers today. I’ve had a dear pastor tell me that when he preached on certain subjects (repentance, marriage between a man and woman, abortion, etc.) there were people that came to him, furious that he had done so. He never backed down!! Unfortunately, he is now retired.
For change to come, in this country, we have to start with repenting. I know I need to, every day! Let’s pray that our pastors will be bold and unafraid to preach repentance from every pulpit. Heaven is real, but so is hell! We are living in very deceptive times. If ever we needed the whole Word of God preached, it is now!

I agree with the basics of this regarding repentance, but will elaborate on the Revelation the Holy Spirit gave me of that same verse and specifically the word “KNEW” which Jesus used. the greek word “knew” in that verse is ἔγνων a variation of the Greek Word γινώσκω (ginisko) meaning: to know, especially through personal experience (first-hand acquaintance & experientially know) and also used in Luke1:34, “And Mary [a virgin] said to the angel, ‘How will this be since I do not KNOW (ginṓskō = have a relationship with sexual intimacy) a man?) in the bible know/knew often means “copulation” in the old testament and the new—examples: OT: Genesis 4:1And Adam KNEW Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.

The bible tells us we are waiting for the BRIDEGROOM. Remember the wise & foolish versions. The wise kept their lamps burning!! Psalms says THY WORD is lamp unto my feet! So the wise virgins are keeping their lamps of the WORD burning and replenishing the oil (asking the Holy Spirit) to keep their lamps burning.

traditionally a bride & groom will get to KNOW each other in more ways than one, emotionally, physically, spiritually, and the bible says the TWO will become ONE. They may have some disagreements during that Post-honeymoon period but traditionally the Hebrew husband is the head, the wife is expected to submit to him & a Godly husband knows how to humble himself & truly love his wife so that she then humbles herself and respects and submits to him in the γινώσκω intimate Emotional & physical relationship.

what would our “beliefs” we hold on inside be if they do not manifest in the Physical realm or the outward experience? So it is always both a knowing inwardly & an outward expression (Yes: repentance!) The old testament teaches us the law the new teaches us grace. The bible also refers to the one new man which means Jesus resolved the conflict of legalism versus licentiousness (making our belly god Allowing our flesh to rule us instead of theWORD our husband ). This is why the word adultress is used so often innthe bible as well! Jesusis coming for the faithful bride, lamps burning without spot or wrinkle, not the adultress. (phairsees versus those who say it’s all grace but who never actually repent!) Jesus has fulfilled the law and given us a true revelation of who we are IN him, More than conquerors over sin, the devils, and the curse of the law. John the Revelator tells us in the first chapter of his gospel that Jesus IS the WORD made flesh. So KNOWING Jesus (ginisko) is knowing the WORD Intimately inwardly and outwardly: both The written word of God and the living person of Jesus not merely the Historical factual story but a true living experience with our savior involving intimate communication and ginisko (experientially knowing him) (psalm 119:11: thy WORD have i hidden in my heart so i would NOT SIN against You!) We can get a revelation of the word and pass tests rather quickly and/or undergo various trials that refine us in the word and burn off dross, so in the end of the trial we now KNOW that word. The bible says the word is refined 7 times! It can take more than one trial to perfect us in it. (The bibles examples of that are chaff being sifted and silver being refined)

I have more i can share but i am not sure how much i can post here.

I believe that if the church in America would have humbled themselves and prayed and sought the face of God, turned from their wicked ways God would have healed our land last fall. We are still in need of more of God. There is only one way to Him…repentance. May God open our eyes to our need.
