I Prayed have prayed
Father, help us to heed the warning You give to us and to be sensitive towards Your Holy Spirit speaking to us. We need You Father.
Reading Time: 2 minutes

While I was recently studying Matthew 7:22-24 and asking God for increased revelation, I had one of the most disturbing prophetic dreams of my life. The Scripture I was studying in Matthew says, “Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonderful works in Your name?’ But then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from Me, you who practice evil.'”

In the prophetic dream, I was taken to hell where I saw all these ministers and individuals who had performed miracles, cast out demons and prophesied. What I was shown next I will never forget. The Holy Spirit showed me long lines of people behind all of these ministers and individuals. He immediately revealed to me that these were all the people that had received the miracles, prophecies and had been at one time delivered. As I gazed at the people in these lines, He said to me, “Did they not receive miracles, prophecy and deliverance, yet I never knew them?” . . .

Editor’s Note: He then woke up from his dream and this is what He said to the Holy Spirit: . . .

“So there are not only people that will perform signs, wonders and miracles who will be sent to hell, but also people who received all these things who will also be in hell. Why?”

Immediately the Holy Spirit spoke again to me and said, “Because those who worked miracles, prophesied and cast out demons never preached the full gospel of Jesus Christ, which is the message of repentance. They were so in love with the gifts I had given them that people became trophies and souvenirs to them. When My power would manifest in their ministries, they would tell people that I loved them, but never that they needed to repent for their sins. I tell you that a great deception will sweep over the signs and wonders movement in the earth. Beware of the ministries where miracles and prophecies will flow, but the message of repentance is a no-go. You have been warned.”

Will you pray with me today that ministers and individuals who move in God’s power will not only live a lifestyle of repentance but also preach it? What if people getting healed, delivered and prophesied to, and told God loves them isn’t the full gospel message? . . .

What do you think of this prophetic dream? Discuss in the comments below!

For over 30 years of being an intercessor, I have been helping as many people as could. But for the past 10 years or so, I have been warning about persecution and destruction of America. God does not want people to heal, cast out demons and the like, He wants obedience and not some work done by us fulfilling the Great Commission.
I am warning you as an intercessor and prophet and as one of the two witnesses of revelation 11, please spend time with the Lord- get to know Him, get to hear from Him and get to obey His voice. Serve Him, honor Him and obey Him. Doing this will guarantee a place with Him. Stand connected,stay connected- knowing the will of God is going to save you.

Jeremiah – Thank you.
We are serving overseas and are seeing an astounding prevalence of false teaching and arrogance. One group of new believers were being taught to pray to themselves. We have asked what is happening? We were disheartened until we realized the enemy is sneaky and trying to redirect God’s people from doing His will.

Please Intercessors pray. The lives of the unsaved depend on our faithfulness on our knees.

“Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good!” Romans 12:9

Very important message for today and the future! We have all seen those who follow the “signs” and are more excited over the miracles that the sinners who repent. Both are important but repentance has to come first.
Otherwise Jesus wouldn’t have shared this warning with us. And also it explains why some of those who are first here will be last in heaven I think.

Father God we fall on our faces before You in repentance for EVER loving the Gifts more than the Creator of those gifts (You). And we humble ourselves & ask You to have Mercy on us… if any of us reading this prayer has been deluded by the not-full-Gospel teaching & has forgotten to commune with You more than ask of You & partake of Your Bounty toward us… I pray You open the eyes of our understanding, give us Revelation Knowledge of our error, humble us by the leading of your Holy Spirit. Turn us around, Lord.

We are a Body that lives in rags while we believe we live in riches (worldly wealth). Lord, oh Lord, how we NEED You. How I want to want You more! How I want to want an increase of Your Presence & an increase of BEING in Your Presence. Help me make that a lifestyle, a life-long habit NOW — while there is still time to respond, repent & renew my relationship with You! In Jesus name

    Too much emphasis on God’s presence, which is asking for a different kind of miracle. How about emphasizing obedience?

I truly believe in acknowledging our sins and repenting. We are not perfect souls and all make mistakes but must make the effort to learn, repent and ask for forgiveness. I also believe in recognizing and acknowledging the blessing we receive each day no matter how small yo may think they are and always show we are grateful. Blessings seem to grow when you are thankful..

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.

Father, Forgive us for not repenting as we should. We sin against You in so many ways not only by the things we have done, but by the things we have left undone. Show us Your ways, Lord. we compare ourselves to other sinners rather than the pure and holy Word and life of Jesus. We give the excuse, we are only human. Help us live the lives You have prepared for us before we were even born. In Jesus Holy Name, I ask. 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.

Thank you for sharing this prophetic word. Many people talk about the subject of repentance and even about the need for it. In my own case, I recognize it is critical to do both. We must repent and invite others to do the same.

I believe this dream to be from God. Many are not mentioning the cross nor the need for repentance to their people. Many pastors are not encouraging their people to get into the word of God.

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.

This is quite frightening! It partially explains my feelings of discomfort when I read about some revivals. If the message of repentance isn’t preached, how can sin be forgiven? Yes, God is love, but He is Just. His sacrifice at Calvary deserves so much more than ‘easy believism’. God forgive us!

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.

Thank you for the revelation in that dream. Every message must include repent, ask for the Lord’s forgiveness, Submit to the Holy Spirit and give up your life and be born again by His Bpirit. Believe Yeshua died in our place, and rose on the third day, Be cleansed by His shed blood, and washed by the water of His word. Allow Christ to live through you. It’s not about you or me, It’s all about Yeshua.

Daniel T Winfield
April 18, 2021

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.

    Daniel, sometimes the popular ideas of “personal righteousness” and “Christ’s imputed righteousness” are confused. The Bible teaches both. People are shunned as legalists if they preach Christian discipline and holiness today. The Scriptures are being twisted or ignored to allow for immorality and the pleasures of the world. The movements of repentance are often difficult but the prophesy is saying that we are needing a movement of repentance today in America. These movements can be difficult when societies are intrenched in carnality. But they are necessary to bring us back to God, to purify the church. A pure and holy church is a powerful church. The Bride of Christ must be holy. We receive Christ’s righteousness and we practice righteousness.

    Repentance movements usually bring sorrow, remorse, even chaos and turmoil and great shifts. When people return things they stole or give up their girlfriends, when people are kicked out of church until they repent, when bars and casinos are asked to close, when divorced couples are asked to reunit, when children are pulled out of secular schools, when women have to throw away expensive immoral clothes and books have to be burned—demons fly and lives are disrupted. Like cutting out cancer. But what peace and joy and freedom repentance brings! When Jesus sets us free we are free indeed! Jesus wants purity in the church again. He wants His people to purify themselves and to become sanctified and to stay sanctified. We must start submitting to Christ and His commands.

    The Holy Spirit will help us and work in us, but we must also submit and say yes when the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin. Our salvation comes from Christ alone and His atonement, but this does not erase the truth that we must daily submit and discipline our minds, our bodies, our lifestyles. We must wash our minds and hearts with the Word, we must eat the Bread of Life. The Bible teaches that we must receive the grace of God to be saved, but we also must practice works of righteousness to be saved. The Bible doesnt teach that God’s grace will just carry lazy people all the way to the finish line. Be faithful, run the race to win. I think the prophesy received is a warning against the lazy grace theology in America today. Aberrant theology produces aberrant lifestyles.

    God doesnt jsut want to hear our excuses for sin– God have mercy, I sinned again. He also wants to see us disciplining ourselves to stay away from sin–well done good and faithful servant.
    It should just be a normal part of the Christian lifestyle to strive for holiness and to battle the flesh and submit to God. Being a weak and sinful Christian damages the church, brings shame to Christ, tramples His sacrifice and ignores His grace. Our sin can send people to hell. We have to remember that our actions will be judged by God. If we are living a righteous life, in submission to God, disciplined, not in bondage to sin, we dont have to worry as much about hurting another’s faith or God’s judgment. This is why righteousness brings peace and freedom. Righteous living always brings peace with God. Rest and peace comes from obedience.

    Does God want us to keep sinning and getting worse and worse, never getting better, just pleading the grace of God to save us? The Bible says the righteous will practice righteousness. We cant stop striving to be righteous and holy, and asking God to help us do these things. Believers must be trained, disciplined, warned, admonished. This is what produces life and peace and spiritual rest and power and deliverance from evil. Jesus didnt say its ok to be sloppy and give up on striving for perfection just because we are sinners battling the flesh. An athlete who wants to win the race, trains himself carefully to win, and is careful not to allow anything in his life that might make him stumble. Thats the attitude we are admonished to have regarding our Christian walk.

    If the Bible says–“be holy.” Our answer cant be—“No one is holy, Im saved by God’s grace alone.” Christ and his apostles taught us to fight the good faith, to run the race to win, to train our minds and our flesh not to sin, not to fall. Jesus said if we keep His commandments we are His disciples indeed and we shall know the truth and the truth shall set us free. A well trained and disciplined Christian life, not under the bondage of sin, is what we must strive for, and one to whom Christ will give freedom and peace.

    And cities that practice righteousness are free and peaceful. And nations that practices righteousness are free and peaceful and powerful. The Scriptures have always taught those spiritual truths. God’s grace and Christ’s atoning sacrifice arent nullified by those life giving principles of righteous living. They both go together. Grace and repentance and Christian discipline have to be taught together.

      AMEN Jann! You speak from the heart of God! Christians in America particularly have become “soft” in our discipline to live holy righteous lives as a witness to the world of the peace and freedom Christ gave us on the cross. Jesus didn’t die an agonizing death so we Christians can say “no one’s perfect” as an excuse for not living a righteous godly life and continuing to live in sin. Your words convict me to be more disciplined in my own life. Thank you for this word.

YES GOD is Love and He is also Holy!! 1CORINTHIANS 13! If we LOVE HIM we will keep His Commandments! Read Hebrews 12:14, 1JOHN 1:8-10! WE NEED TO SEEK THE FACE OF GOD YHWH IN ALL HIS ATTRIBUTES! AMERICA NEEDS TO REPENT ,THE BODY OF MESSIAH NEEDS TO REPENT! THE DREAM THAT WAS SHARED BEARS WITNESS TO THE TRUTH OF WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW! PEOPLE WANT MIRACLES, BUT DO NOT WANT TO REPENT. THE EAR TICKLING PREACHERS THAT HAVE THE GIFTS , BUT NO FEAR OF GOD, ARE USING THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT FOR THE WRONG REASONS AND THEY ARE NOT POINTING PEOPLE TO THEIR NEED OF REPENTANCE AND SALVATION. GOD YHWH IS LOVE, HE IS ALSO HOLY,JUST, AND RIGHTEOUS! HALLELUYAH,HE IS GOD YHWH AND WE NEED TO LOVE AND OBEY HIM. IN THE NAME OF YESHUA!

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.

I’ve been praying Daniel’s prayer (Ch 9) every day. This dream fits right into the petitions contained in this prayer. “Just as it is written in the Law of Moses, all this disaster has come on us, yet we have not sought the favor of the Lord our God by turning from our sins and giving attention to your truth. 14 The Lord did not hesitate to bring the disaster on us, for the Lord our God is righteous in everything he does; yet we have not obeyed him.”

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.

Your Dream is so very true; many will come and do these miracles in the Lord’s name, but not bring the TRUE MESSAGE of repentance to those who need to hear this word. There are Pastors and/or Preachers who participate in the churches that wear the SHEEP’s Clothing of Faith.

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?

This is exactly what Mary Kay Baxter spoke and wrote about when the Lord took her to Hell and Heaven.To God Be the Glory that prayerfully Repentance will be preached in these later years not only as individuals, but as a Nation that has booted the Lord out of almost every aspect and stuck our fists in His face guising that they know the Lord.

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!

    Dolores:. Exactly! These Scriptures say it all. We are no longer to be “sin conscious”. (1) Romans 4:7-8: Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
    (2) Romans 4:23-25:The words “It was credited to him” were written not for him alone, but ALSO FOR US, to whom God will credit righteousness- FOR US WHO BELIEVE IN HIM WHO RAISED JESUS OUR LORD FROM THE DEAD. He was delivered over to death for OUR SINS and was raised to life for OUR JUSTIFICATION.
    (3) Romans 5:13: Sin is not imputed where there is no law. (Jesus fulfilled the law so we no longer live under the law, but under grace.)
    (4) 2 Corinthians 5:21: God made Him who had no sin (Jesus) to BE SIN FOR US, so that in Him WE MIGHT BECOME THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN HIM.

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.

    Thank you and Amen. I read 106 psalms. Oh my it reads like America and the world today! Wicked! In every way and God gives them over. Will God take care of those who are His true faithful? While he pours out judgment? I believe yes God is true to His promises. America has had many chances to repent and warnings. 911 and so many wake up calls. Like Pharoah so many hardened their hearts and vote in evil. They are wicked baby killers. As for me my heart soul and body belongs to Jesus. Repent America! The land is deviled with innocent baby blood and perversion abounds beyond our beliefs!!!! “Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils, And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.”

My biggest concern right now is my church. The pastors give the salvation message but refuse to take a hard stand on abortion, gay marriage, gender identity, and other issues that are controversial. A group of we elders met with them, but I still feel our teachings are Luke warm. Please pray that our pastors will not be afraid of using Gods word as a two edged sword and speaking some hard truths.

      Repentance preachers through history have often meet violence, persecution, poverty, turmoil. I remember reading about a preacher many years ago who asked people to stop going to bars. Alcoholism, gambling and prostitution were rampant in his city and causing decay, poverty, disease, civic unrest and death. City officials and business owners came and threw chairs at him, harassed his family and tried to poison him! Maybe we can pray God raises up Christian leaders to preach the Word and preach repentance outside of the churches. Circuit preachers? Maybe someone can start preaching repentance in states and cities where its not so so dangerous. God can show the way to purify His Church again.

        Amen. Well said and yes you gave me a view on the consequences of preaching repent. But it still must be preached and whenever I can on social media or with personal relationships or opportunities, I do infact its part of the gospel message I give. Persecution comes because of the word the bible says. It’s a given. People love their sins more than God. They shun the light and Jesus said that in John 3. I have preached the gospel to the poor and downtrodden and they have no issue with seeing their fallen state. But when I preach the gospel message of sin and salvation to upper class suburn folks, they are disgust3ed. They refuse to accept that they are sinners or anyone is a sinner. If I dare to say that the man dressing as a woman down the street, who lives in the large beautiful house, is a sinner, I get a very negative reaction indeec. Boy did I! God bless.

Hosea 14:1 Return, O Israel, to the Lord your God,
for you have stumbled because of your iniquity.
Take words with you
and return to the Lord;
say to him,
“Take away all guilt;
receive us graciously,
and we will offer
the fruit of our lips.
3 Assyria shall not save us;
we will not ride upon horses;
we will say no more, ‘Our God,’
to the work of our hands.
In you the orphan finds mercy.”
4 I will heal their disloyalty;
I will love them freely,
for my anger has turned from them.
5 I will be like the dew to Israel;
he shall blossom like the lily,
he shall take root like the trees of Lebanon.
6 His shoots shall spread out;
his beauty shall be like the olive tree,
and his fragrance like that of Lebanon.
7 They shall again live beneath my shadow,
they shall flourish as a garden;
they shall blossom like the vine,
their fragrance shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
8 O Ephraim, what have I to do with idols?
It is I who answer and look after you.
I am like an evergreen cypress;
your faithfulness comes from me.
9 Those who are wise understand these things;
those who are discerning know them.
For the ways of the Lord are right,
and the upright walk in them,
but transgressors stumble in them.

You Are God Alone Lyrics

You are not a God, created by human hands
You are not a God, dependent on any mortal man
You are not a God, in need of anything we can give
By Your plan, that’s just the way it is

You are not a God, created by human hands
You are not a God, dependent on any mortal man
You are not a God, in need of anything we can give
By Your plan, that’s just the way it is

You are God alone from before time began
You were on Your throne
You are God alone and right now
In the good times and bad
You are on Your throne
And you are God alone

You’re the only God whose power none can contend
You’re the only God whose name and praise will never end
You’re the only God who’s worthy of everything we can give
You are God and that’s just the way it is

You are God alone from before time began
You were on Your throne
You are God alone and right now
In the good times and bad
You are on Your throne
And you are God alone

Unchangeable, unshakable, unstoppable
That’s what You are
Unchangeable, unshakable, unstoppable
That’s what You are

You are God alone from before time began
You were on Your throne
You are God alone and right now
In the good times and bad
You are on Your throne
And you are God alone

Unchangeable, unshakable, unstoppable
That’s what You are

Paul’s admonition is to seek love, the greatest gift of all. To be so filled with the fullness of God that only Jesus is a reflection of God’s Glory in us. O that the Church will seek LOVE, for God is Love.

This article about prophetic warnings humbles me and brings me to my knees… may the Lord forbid me and every member of His church to forget to ask for His forgiveness, to walk away from our wicked ways and sincerely repent, that our conscience is open to the Holy Spirit’s conviction. We want to be faithful and stand acknowledging Him in all our ways all the days of our lives.
This verse in Mathew 7:22-23 has been in my heart several days this week as a warning to the church.

    (1) Romans 4:7-8: Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.
    (2) Romans 4:23-25:The words “It was credited to him” were written not for him alone, but ALSO FOR US, to whom God will credit righteousness- FOR US WHO BELIEVE IN HIM WHO RAISED JESUS OUR LORD FROM THE DEAD. He was delivered over to death for OUR SINS and was raised to life for OUR JUSTIFICATION.
    (3) Romans 5:13: Sin is not imputed where there is no law. (Jesus fulfilled the law so we no longer live under the law, but under grace.)
    (4) 2 Corinthians 5:21: God made Him who had no sin (Jesus) to BE SIN FOR US, so that in Him WE MIGHT BECOME THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IN CHRIST.

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.

The Plan of Salvation is the Plan of Repentance and “Happiness”. Without sorrow for sin we cannot partake of the fullness of the gospel and progress towards eternal principles of Godly sorrow and joy! You cannot learn eternal truths if your hearts and souls are still anchored in worldliness. How can you expect to live in the Celestial glory of God the Eternal Father. He cannot accept even the least degree of sin! Christ sacrificed to give each us a resurrected body, but what spirit will you be resurected unto…evil or goodness. Christ fulfilled the law broken by the fall of Adam and Eve, perfectly. We cannot serve two masters. Who do you follow? God or mammon? Christ showed us how to live and die with honor and faith. If your life is not patterned after Him…whom do you follow?

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.

Recently a friend called me regarding a dream she had and I was in it. This was a dream of being on the show Jeopardy” and that word kept drawing her. As she explained further that she felt it was a warning, I was wondering why I was “playing” the bad guy. She even said…”Debby, you are the most stable, balanced, focused person I know in regards to the Word, no compromising, sure of the absolutes, and unwavering”. She was seeking insight on the dream and what it may mean, was it regarding me, or the Body at large. After prayer the answer came. I represented “even the elect” (Matt 24:24) that might be deceived. She was trying to “rescue” me with the Good News of Jesus dying for us. She had been found out in the dream and the enemy was not happy. The word jeopardy means…exposure to or imminence of, death, loss or injury. All that said, I do believe we need to share why we need a savior, not just His love and goodness. We don’t want to represent a half way message of truth to those He places in our path. It takes a boldness, a confidence of Whose we are, a desire to see others through His eyes, without fear of rejection. Many say today to forget your past and move forward. That is true for many avenues in our lives, yet the first initial experience with Him is NEVER forgotten or put aside. Our own personal testimony of salvation is a great way to share how we needed Him and He received us. That is showing our need and His goodness.

Father God, we humbly come before You. It is only because of Jesus that we can. We have been freely given all we need to share the “good news” of Jesus death and resurrection to those You place around us. It is the goodness of God that leads to repentance and for that we are so very grateful, but let us not stop there. Stir our hearts to be as “bold as a lion” (Pro 28:1, 1Cor 16:13, Acts 4:31), to see hearts like You see hearts, for courage and passion to share the whole story of Jesus. We all have come short of the glory of God, but it is when we see our need for You that our hearts can be changed, transformed into that dwelling place where You reside and lead us into all truth. We ask that we might recognize every encounter You bring us to with another and seize the moment, in love AND in truth of His whole story. In Jesus name we pray, amen.

It seems that many so called Bible based churches are not preaching about repentance of sins only that God loves you. Ministers are evading hot topics of our immoral sinful society to keep members attending for fear of financial loss or fallout. I intend to confront the pastor(s) at my
Mega Church for this very reason. I will post a message as to how it goes.

This reminds me 2 individuals, Benny Hinn is one. I went to one of his crusades and into it he asked 100 dollars for a miracle and I do see he is still on Christian television the other is Joel Olsteen who preaches a feel good message who never quotes scripture or never talks about the way to salvation. Shame on these Christian stations for carting them because they to will have to give an account

I resonate positively with this message.
The gospel of Jesus Christ, the Good News, has not been preached from American pulpits for decades.
Tickling it hing ears and psycho-babble have lulled congregations to sleep, spiritually.
The enemy has disarmed the Church with this tactic.
The popular terms of “woke” and “awake” describe two totally different groups of people.
“Woke” are drinking the Koolaid and are actually asleep, spiritually. They are not aware of what’s happening in the spiritual world. They have no discernment.
Those who are “awake”, however, see clearly and have the awareness within their spirit of what is truth and which direction in which to go.
The fields are ripe to harvest.
Unfortunately, the laborers are few.

The bible says if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us AND
CLEANSE us of ALL
Unrighteousness. We have a covenant/partnership with God meaning both of us have responsibilities to fulfill. Stopping at merely confessing sin is not FULL
repentance:

Psalms 119:11 says Thy WORD have I hid in my heart so i will NOT SIN against you.

Ephesians 5:26 says Jesus washes the bride/church with the water of the WORD.

Ephesians 5:26:…That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

So how will We repent and be cleansed if we dont stay in the word/aka Jesus who Apostle John CLEARLY taught us IS the WORD?

(In the beginning was the WORD, the WORD was with God and WAS God…,the WORD was made flesh and dwelled among us. Friends Jesus IS the WORD

Revelation 19:13
He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The WORD of God.

Psalm 138:2 I will worship toward thy holy temple, and praise thy name for thy lovingkindness and for thy truth: for thou hast MAGNIFIED thy WORD above all thy name.

(Translation: the WORD is far above even the name Jesus! Because Jesus IS the WORD that is His TRUE Name! Jesus is his given human name but before he formed the earth, the lamb who was slain before the foundation of the earth WAS the WORD who was with God and WAS God! HIS divine name has therefore ALWAYS been the WORD!! Again, worth repeating: Revelation 19:13
He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The WORD of God.

Philippians 2:9-119 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus (aka The WORD) every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

Staying in the word teaches us right from wrong, we read it then have the responsibility to believe it, agree with it, call sin “sin” and receive the word into our heart so that we will NOT sin against it.

full complete “confession” and repentance not only says “i am sorry i was wrong” it goes all the way and FULLY confesses & says i learned that the word says this is wrong, is Sin, and therefore i do not want to make this same
mistake/sin again and because IN Christ I AM MORE than a conqueror, i believe the WORD/ Christ
and CONFESS that i
Hereby conqueror this sin, & triumph over it Jesus the WORD promises to cleanse me of it therefore i will Not make this same
mistake again.we are to reckon ourselves dead to that sin and alive to God’s righteousness

At that God honors his part of the covenant and helps keep our feet from falling into that same sin.

Going round and round committing the same sin & just saying sorry & thinking that is all that is required is deception

Preaching is lacking in God’s Ten Commandments and other laws and on repentance. How do we know what we need to repent of without the knowledge of sin? We must be in God’s Word daily and our pastors need to teach God’s laws so we know how we’ve sinned against our Holy Heavenly Father. “In fact, it was the law that showed me my sin. I would never have known that coveting is wrong if the law had not said, “You must not covet.” Romans 7:7b
Too many feel good sermons deceiving people nowadays. 2 Peter 3:9b “God does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to REPENT.” Be warned: 2 Corinthians 7:10 “For the kind of sorrow God wants us to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation. There’s no regret for that kind of sorrow. But worldly sorrow, which lacks repentance, results in spiritual death.”
Dear Lord, please impress upon our pastors and priests to teach Your laws and call for repentance. In Jesus’s precious name! Amen.

Is66:2 “but to this one will I look, to him who is humble & contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.” May the Lord awaken His bride & cause her to humble herself & tremble at His word. May Your word wash over her & give her the mind of Christ. She is scattered now, but the Lord is causing His wind to blow in these days to separate the wheat from the chaff. Everything that can be shaken is being shaken to reveal what we have been building upon. May we humble ourselves & allow the Spirit of God to challenge our assumptions & may we become teachable like little children. It’s the only way we can receive His kingdom.

    i have also confronted him on facebook with a misleading teaching he did on jezebel, he did not reply, then shortly afterward he repented publicly after he and others said Trump would win a second term. I thought he then stepped down from public ministry. I do believe people repent and absolutely hope the false prophets and false teachers repent and come to the complete truth of the full gospel. Benny Hinn is also repenting now saying the prosperity gospel was false.
    So thank God that God is cleansing the church at all levels. Let us have faith that they have truly repented yet let us remember

    isaiah 31:3
    EGYPT is a MAN, and not God;
    and their horses are flesh, and not Spirit.
    When Jehovah shall stretch out His hand, both he who helps shall fall, and he who is helped shall fall down, and they shall all cease together.

    So let us no longer look to men or to flesh but only to Jesus who Apostle John clearly said from the beginning was with God and WAS God and was made flesh and dwelled among us.

    All the help and
    answers we need are in Him, Ministries and teachers are supposed to be there to help the church ultimately look to HIM not them!! And make disciples not blind mute deaf
    cripples who dont hear his voice or discern or walk in the spirit

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?

    I had the catholic guilt upbringing as well, the God i was taught about was an ogre not a kind living merciful
    father at all. God did finally set me straight about his great and unfailing LOVE like He did for you also, praise be to Jesus!!! And i agree with you, both messages are
    important, His love & grace and the necessity of repentance for the right reason, which is our dying to self love for the Divine Loving Savior who died for us. There is not one death but two, his saves us but our death to self confirms that we finally “got it, believed it and received it and it completely changed us to the point that we we recognized he laid his life down for us and the full revelation of that has made us want to lay our life down for him and his glory.

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.

What comes to mind is the scripture that tells us that the Holy Spirit convicts us of judgement and sin and righteousness. This conviction results in godly sorrow, which produces repentance that leads to salvation. Praise God for the power of His Spirit, and may everyone involved and touched by revival and signs and wonders glorify God, advance God’s kingdom, and walk in the submission and fullness of the Lordship of Jesus Christ in every area of their lives.

    Acts 2:17 is clear. In the last days, sons and daughters will prophesy. Young men will see visions, old men will dream dreams. We know the prophecies are true when they line up with God’s word and they come to pass. Yes, there will be false prophets in the end days. But there will also be those through whom God gives messages to his people as well as those who are far from him. We need to listen to those messages with discernment.

The bottom line yes, repentance, but The type of repentance God is looking for is true heartfelt change & understanding why the repentance & obedience to the WORD is So necessary, he is not looking for just an outward bite-the-bullet-will-power type of repentance with bitterness & inwardly harboring sin (bitterness such as those who think: oh God doesnt want me to have pleasure or fun, and some who do not outwardly commit immorality secretly fantacize, covet & turn to porn instead, so outwardly they look good but inwardly they are still dead in that sin.

In the verse the article Refers to, the people Jesus speaks of he describes as those who are “WORKERS of INIQUITY” (KJV) and in some translations those who “practice lawlessness”.

Psalms refers specifically to some of the sins of the WORKERS of INIQUITY Which might surprise you:

Psalms 28:3-4 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the WORKERS OF INIQUITY, who: speak peace to their neighbors, yet evil is in their hearts. (Hypocrites! People Who act like someone’s friend inoutwardly but inwardly secretly dislike even hate you and plot against you) These even do this to God himself, calling themself his Outwardly yet practicing sin inwardly)

-psalms 14:4 “Have all the WORKERS of INIQUITY no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.” (They don’t call on Lord in truth, they don’t eat the bread of the WORD and instead they eat/ devour people oppressively—phairsees made themselves feel superior by catching others in sin and stoning (insulting) making others feel worthless etc) feasting on the poor in secret (habbakkuk 3:14
You thrust through with his own arrows the head of his villages. They came out like a whirlwind to scatter me; Their rejoicing was like feasting on the poor in secret.)

self righteous finger pointing phairsees!! Some Modern day phairsees call themselves Christians but are foolish virgins who’s lamps go out because they do not remain in the WORD. —thy WORD is a LAMP unto my feet psalm 119:105

The new testament epistle admonition to be “IN Christ” means being, staying IN the word, reading it, storing it in our heart and living it out—staying IN it.

-Psalm 5 4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest ALL WORKERS of INIQUITY 6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

Leasing means speaking: vanity & foolishness, in other words speaking & believing a gospel of fools that fools embrace such as the foolish virgins who let their lamp go out (symbolic that they do not stay in the WORD —thy WORD is a LAMP unto my feet psalm 119:105)

-Psalm 64 2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the WORKERS OF INIQUITY:3 WHO: whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?6 They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.
(Again, These seem to use their mouth as a weapon, & focus on the sin of others like the phairsees, to stone sinners, even when they see a true believer they search for sin in them & greatly desire to see them caught in a snare Remember the phairsees wanted to catch Jesus in some snare, sin, or false teaching etc., they were always looking to find fault in him. WORKERS OF INIQUITY partner with the devil who is Anti-Christ (anti-Word!) the Father of LIES. Apostle John Calls Jesus the WORD in both his gospel chapter 1 and in Revelation 19:13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The WORD of God.

So since Jesus the Christ IS the WORD then the Anti Christ is Logically anti-WORD! One who is Against the word or a false gospel, or a mixed gospel with deceptions, falsehood and lies.

true repentance is understanding that Jesus IS the WORD!! And staying IN CHrist is necessary like the wise virgins who kept their lamps burning (thy WORD is a lamp unto my feet—psalm 119:105)

Apostle John (the disciple Jesus LOVED) taught us Jesus is tge WORD in John Chapter 1, and he reiterates it in Revelation 19:13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The WORD of God.

John’s Gospel says the WORD was with God and WAS God.

Proverbs talks about the fear (reverence) of the Lord so this means the fear and reverence of the WORD! It talks about the adulteress (anti-word, disobedience) and describes wisdom as the fear of the Lord (reverence for the word) and counsels us to get wisdom and understanding! Understanding of what? The WORD!! Who God is and why it is important to fear (revere) and obey Him.

The first chapter of proverbs goes into great detail on this and why it is important to keep the word/law always before our eyes and not turn to left or right (not compromise)

——-
Isaiah 31:1-3 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and lean on horses and trust in chariots, because it is great; and in horsemen, because they are so very strong, but they do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor do they seek Jehovah! (2) Yet He also is wise, and will bring evil, and will NOT call back His WORDS, but will arise against the house of evil-doers and against the help of those who work iniquity. (3) And Egypt IS a MAN, and not God; and their horses are FLESH, and not Spirit. When Jehovah shall stretch out His hand, both he who helps shall fall, and he who is helped shall fall down, and they shall all cease together.

God explains it right there through Isaiah, trust and lean on GOD the person/who is one with Jesus aka/the WORD

Be wise: Keep your lamps burning

      Thanks for taking time to read all that Anna and taking time to comment!
      God bless & keep us always looking only to HIM the Word who was with God and WAS God and slain for us before the foundation of the earth!

      Here is Old Testament Bible symbolism
      Explained:

      Isaiah 31:3
      EGYPT is a MAN,
      not God; [My emphasis: the WORD]
      and their HORSES are flesh, and not Spirit.

      When Jehovah shall stretch out His hand, both he who helps shall fall, and he who is helped shall fall down, and they shall all cease together.

      All eyes on Him the person &
      written WORD.
      God bless.

I agree that the whole gospel must be told not just God’s love but our sin & need of the saviour. But if these preachers aren’t preaching it all, then why would God bless their ministry & let them heal people? Is it God doing it?

    The prince of this world uses his power to deceive. Beware. Just because a ministry has a large following doesn’t necessarily mean they are blessed by God. Crowds attract crowds. People like a “moral lesson” from time to time. Makes them feel like they are becoming “better people.”
    Be in God’s Word daily, prayerfully. Be wise. Good for you, Diane, for asking questions!

This article is spot on. So many men of God have abuse and twisted the gifts and manifestations of Holy spirit, and have ignored important aspects of the gospel. Repentance is one of the necessary building blocks, essential to our faith. If we blindly follow these “leaders”, we are in deep trouble. Repentance is SO needed in our nation today. By Your great mercy and grace, Lord, give all of Your children a heart of repentance. Protect us from the attempts of the enemy to twist and pervert the full, unadulterated truth of Your gospel. In Jesus’ name.

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.

Awesome word! I have been speaking this for years and received much backlash from it. I tell people what God told me, “I Love you too much to allow you to stay in your sin!” Jesus was very clear, “If you love Me, you will obey Me and keep My commandments,” and “obedience is better than sacrifice.” God Loves us so much! Why can’t we allow Him the freedom to transform us and revolutionize our lives?! Amen!

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.

Oh, Lord, you came to me with a similar vision years ago. You said to me, ‘tell the truth about me. They are not telling the truth about me.’ I was teaching in a Bible study then. I reminded the women who were there of the forgiveness of sin by our Lord. That no matter what we do, He is faithful to forgive when we are faithful to ask. That’s an acknowledgement of sin. To know we need forgiveness shows our repentance. Lord I pray all who teach in your name teach truth. You are faithful to forgive when we repent and ask forgiveness. Lord I ask today that You forgive me for my sins against you yesterday, today and tomorrow. I ask that you show us all where we fail you so we may fall on our knees in repentance to beg your loving grace fall on us. Thank you Lord Jesus for your grace.

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 can agree with you. However, Christ just asked us to repent and ASK Him to forgive us. He did not make it any more difficult than that. Repent. Ask. His grace falls on those who recognize their sin and ask to be forgiven. Simple.

      Victoria
      April 17, 2021

      Yes but stopping at confessing sin is not FULL
      repentance,
      The verse says if we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us AND
      CLEANSE us of ALL
      Unrighteousness. This is a partnership with God not osmosis.

      Psalms 119:11 says Thy WORD have I hid in my heart so i will NOT SIN against you.

      Ephesians 5:26 says Jesus washes the bride/church with the water of the WORD.

      Ephesians 5:26:…That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

      So how will We be cleansed if we dont stay in the word/aka Jesus who Apostle John CLEARLY taught us IS the WORD?

      Staying in the word teaches us right from wrong, we read it then have the responsibility to believe it, agree with it, call sin “sin” and receive the word into our heart so that we will NOT sin against it.

      full complete “confession” and
      repentance not only says “i am sorry i was wrong” it goes all the way and confesses & says i learned that the word says this is wrong, Sin, and
      therefore i do not want to make this same
      mistake/sin again and because IN Christ I AM MORE than a conqueror, i believe the WORD/ Christ
      and
      CONFESS that i conqueror this sin, &
      triumph over it & i will Not make this same
      mistake again.

      Going round and round committing the same sin & just saying sorry & thinking that is all that is required is deception

    The bottom line yes, repentance, but The type of repentance God is looking for is true heartfelt change & understanding why the repentance & obedience to the WORD is So necessary, he is not looking for just an outward bite-the-bullet-will-power type of repentance with bitterness & inwardly harboring sin (bitterness such as those who think: oh God doesnt want me to have pleasure or fun, and some who do not outwardly commit immorality secretly fantacize, covet & turn to porn instead, so outwardly they look good but inwardly they are still dead in that sin.

    In the verse the article Refers to, the people Jesus speaks of he describes as those who are “WORKERS of INIQUITY” (KJV) and in some translations those who “practice lawlessness”.

    Psalms refers specifically to some of the sins of the WORKERS of INIQUITY Which might surprise you:

    Psalms 28:3-4 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the WORKERS OF INIQUITY, who: speak peace to their neighbors, yet evil is in their hearts. (Hypocrites! People Who act like someone’s friend inoutwardly but inwardly secretly dislike even hate you and plot against you) These even do this to God himself, calling themself his Outwardly yet practicing sin inwardly)

    -psalms 14:4 “Have all the WORKERS of INIQUITY no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.” (They don’t call on Lord in truth, they don’t eat the bread of the WORD and instead they eat/ devour people oppressively—phairsees made themselves feel superior by catching others in sin and stoning (insulting) making others feel worthless etc) feasting on the poor in secret (habbakkuk 3:14
    You thrust through with his own arrows the head of his villages. They came out like a whirlwind to scatter me; Their rejoicing was like feasting on the poor in secret.)

    self righteous finger pointing phairsees!! Some Modern day phairsees call themselves Christians but are foolish virgins who’s lamps go out because they do not remain in the WORD. —thy WORD is a LAMP unto my feet psalm 119:105

    The new testament epistle admonition to be “IN Christ” means being, staying IN the word, reading it, storing it in our heart and living it out—staying IN it.

    -Psalm 5 4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest ALL WORKERS of INIQUITY 6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

    Leasing means speaking: vanity & foolishness, in other words speaking & believing a gospel of fools that fools embrace such as the foolish virgins who let their lamp go out (symbolic that they do not stay in the WORD —thy WORD is a LAMP unto my feet psalm 119:105)

    -Psalm 64 2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the WORKERS OF INIQUITY:3 WHO: whet their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily; they say, Who shall see them?6 They search out iniquities; they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.
    (Again, These seem to use their mouth as a weapon, & focus on the sin of others like the phairsees, to stone sinners, even when they see a true believer they search for sin in them & greatly desire to see them caught in a snare Remember the phairsees wanted to catch Jesus in some snare, sin, or false teaching etc., they were always looking to find fault in him. WORKERS OF INIQUITY partner with the devil who is Anti-Christ (anti-Word!) the Father of LIES. Apostle John Calls Jesus the WORD in both his gospel chapter 1 and in Revelation 19:13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The WORD of God.

    So since Jesus the Christ IS the WORD then the Anti Christ is Logically anti-WORD! One who is Against the word or a false gospel, or a mixed gospel with deceptions, falsehood and lies.

    true repentance is understanding that Jesus IS the WORD!! And staying IN CHrist is necessary like the wise virgins who kept their lamps burning (thy WORD is a lamp unto my feet—psalm 119:105)

    Apostle John (the disciple Jesus LOVED) taught us Jesus is tge WORD in John Chapter 1, and he reiterates it in Revelation 19:13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The WORD of God.

    John’s Gospel says the WORD was with God and WAS God.

    Proverbs talks about the fear (reverence) of the Lord so this means the fear and reverence of the WORD! It talks about the adulteress (anti-word, disobedience) and describes wisdom as the fear of the Lord (reverence for the word) and counsels us to get wisdom and understanding! Understanding of what? The WORD!! Who God is and why it is important to fear (revere) and obey Him.

    The first chapter of proverbs goes into great detail on this and why it is important to keep the word/law always before our eyes and not turn to left or right (not compromise)

    ——-
    Isaiah 31:1-3 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and lean on horses and trust in chariots, because it is great; and in horsemen, because they are so very strong, but they do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor do they seek Jehovah! (2) Yet He also is wise, and will bring evil, and will NOT call back His WORDS, but will arise against the house of evil-doers and against the help of those who work iniquity. (3) And Egypt IS a MAN, and not God; and their horses are FLESH, and not Spirit. When Jehovah shall stretch out His hand, both he who helps shall fall, and he who is helped shall fall down, and they shall all cease together.

    God explains it right there through Isaiah, trust and lean on GOD the person/who is one with Jesus aka/the WORD

    Be wise: Keep your lamps burning

    Excellent comment Victoria. As iron sharpens iron my prayer is that the intercessor that posted this article contact you so you can glean Wisdom from each other…
    I copied your comment into a file for future reference. What you have written reminds me of two books that had a big impact on me – Abiding in Christ By Andrew Murray and The practice of the Presence of God by Brother Lawrence.
    Self inspection is missing in the church today because it is not taught from the pulpit.
    Thanks for sharing what obviously took a great deal of study in the Word.
    May it produce abundant fruit.

      Thank you fir reading all that
      Maynard, & taking time to comment.

      After being stuck in the deception and vicious cycle of
      religion
      for
      many years
      i fasted
      regularly
      for a few months and God gave me a
      massive
      infilling of the Holy Spirit and taught me all that
      Himself in HIS own Book. Preaching and Books written and taught by men are
      (Egypt—See isaiah 31:3) Men who have received
      revelation are great
      introductions to truth. we then need to
      really stay in God’S Book and look to Him to give us our own Ongoing
      personal
      Revelation
      experience Of these truths
      as well.

      God has only sons, not grandsons.

      Paul may say he
      spiritually
      fathered some
      but in fact it is more like Paul, a bride
      Of Christ Knew/
      Partnered With Christ in a bridal relationship and was
      a spiritual
      Mother to those who converted and were born again in Christ when Paul preached the word.

      They were in fact now the sons of Father GOD not Paul. the bride is actually the mother.

      But the reality is these human relationships the bible uses are just a metaphors and
      examples to teach us of the type of intimate
      relationship God desires with us.

      Isaiah 31:3
      Egypt is a man, and not God; and their horses are flesh, and not Spirit. When
      Jehovah shall stretch out His hand, both he who helps shall fall, and he who is helped shall fall down, and they shall all cease together.

      Even if my comments help, i can still fall
      together with others, i need to keep looking to HIM/
      Jesus Aka the WORD who apostle John says from the
      beginning was with God and WAS God…the WORD, The WORD, The WORD!!

      Even the Holy Spirit comes to convict of sin and
      witness of
      Jesus the WORD

      Jesus said I and the
      Father Are
      ONE

      The WORD
      hallajuah

Heavenly Father, my heart is broken for this country. We have collectively turned our backs on You. We have glorified worldly gods — sports, movies/TV, pornography, media, gluttony, money, travel, and self — glorified killing of innocent babies in the womb, glorified hate and violence, glorified our accomplishments, and think we are masters of our destiny. How foolish we are!

Oh Lord, I fall on my face in repentance for this country. I plead the blood of Jesus over our land and ask that we would be spared from the wrath we deserve and have earned by our neglecting the truth of Your Word.

Raise up bold Christians who preach the whole truth of Your Word. May eyes, ears, minds, hearts, and souls be open and receptive to You. May we all repent of not trusting You, and fall on our faces before You with honor and reverent praise.

Come Lord, Jesus!

Amen.

The One New Man Bible translates verse 23 thus: “And then I will declare to them that ‘I never knew you: you working without Torah(Teaching)- must continually depart from Me.” Footnote says “Without Torah means to fail to do the things taught in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible.”

Yeshua honored the Father by keeping His word. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. As His disciples we are to walk in His very footsteps. While He fulfilled the sacrificial system by offering His own blood for sin in the Heavenly tabernacle, what the Bible says is sin is still sin. What God detested 3000 years ago He still detests. Many Christian traditions trump God’s word, just like religious traditions of the 1st century. I dare say Christianity has been offering ‘strange fire’ for some time now. An example would be Easter vs the feasts of Passover, Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits. Another would be Sunday worship vs Sabbath. Reformation needs to go all the way back to Jerusalem. The Spirit of the Antichrist deny’s Jesus’s coming in the flesh. His flesh is and will always be Jewish. We forgot that we were wild olive plants grafted into the rich stump of Israel! It is indeed time to repent and do the deeds we did at first!

Our Lady of Fatima asked people to repent when she appeared in Fatima in 1917. The Miracle of the Sun was so extravagant that over 70,000 people converted that day. She showed the children (seers) what hell looked like and that there are many there and asked them to do reparation for them and many others so they convert. If you are not familiar with this true story please check it out at tfp.org. Everyone wants mercy and miracles but they don’t want justice. God IS merciful but He is also JUST.

Thank you for sending this message out to all who will receive it. Matt. 7:22-24 has been a most disturbing
passage for me for a very long time. Having been a Christian all of my life and active in doing what God has
called Christians to do, it has been a puzzle regarding this passage until I realized, that the only way to know God and to be known by Him was to read His Book ! ! ! In Matt. 7:7 -12 Jesus states how to know and be known by Him. So no matter what ever is “out there as religion”, the only true faith, is to read God’s Word.
And then you will be known by Him and more importantly you will know God. AND IF YOU KNOW GOD, you will love Him, Obey Him, and Keep His Commandments which will be revealed by the life one lives as a result of the faith
one has.

I agree 100% with this word. It completely lines up with scripture. I’ve seen people who take the miracle and the prophetic word and continue on giving no glory to God and no repentance and turning away from the sins they live in. They’re completely unaware that they should repent. They take the free gift of salvation and don’t understand that transformation is to follow. God help the pastors who are leaving their sheep to the wolves.

I do not perceive this is from Holy Spirit. Signs and Wonders have been eliminated from the Church by hardline evangelicals who have a form of godliness but deny the power of God. God is restoring the Church’s authority with the five fold ministries. Repentance means “turn back to God-turn away from evil.”. There are many examples in Scripture of leading ones to salvation. Each one was given the word he needed. And at times a word of warning. Don’t go back or it may be worse for you -was said to the man at the pool.
Of course there will be counterfeit demonstrations of power and many who preach and prophesy and bring healing who may not know the Lord and receivers of His gifts who may not know Him. It comes to mind the thief on the cross said only “remember me when you come into Your Kingdom.”. And Jesus said….

There is absolutely nothing prophetic in this dream. The little written in this false new prophecy has already been written in God’s inspired immutable word.

Our one true Triune God does not send out prophets since the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Where in His immutable word is it written He will send prophets into this temporal world before His ascension ?

I’m thankful for my church where truth is given. We are challenged and given opportunity to examine our hearts and ask for cleansing. In the midst of changing leadership because of a death there has been some upheaval causing transition to be put in place. This is rare to see and it’s a spiritual battle but God is gathering us together. We are redecorating a much needed area for our children and I see this as spiritual as well as physical as we prepare a place for them to be taught and established in truth. Not in religion but in relationship with Jesus. And each other. I’m humbled to be my age and still able to physically help and get reconnected in a more positive and truthful way as He unifies us. Blessings abounding are in our midst and ready to be shared with our city as each of us go in our territories. I’m an Intercessor and a teachable one as I step foot in church and without.

My name nor my opinion matters. What matters most is what God has spoken to the church. May we give the whole gospel not just parts made of bits and pieces to tickle the ears. I pray this for myself and others who have been guilty of this sin. Forgive me Lord. In your Mighty name Jesus

The Lord laid this on my heart to pray for pastors & ministers to preach God’s TRUTH not a watered down truth. A revival of REPENTANCE is needed in AMERICA.& around the WORLD.

The so-called “feel goo gospel” is leading many to hell.

As a pastor in Japan, I could not agree more. I’ve baptized a few that had said the right words but hadn’t repented, and I regret it. We have an international congregation, and I’ve had an American leave the church because I talked about commitment too much!

Jesus’ first word when He begins His ministry is “ Repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand” This is a very profound and prophetic message and needs to be heeded.

Sadly, this commentary holds true in so many churches. Even the songs that churches are singing are mostly about the love of God and how He makes the worshiper feel. Oh how we need to worship with hymns and songs that
describe the majesty and holiness of God, songs that have substance, not mere sentiment!

As for the preaching, Grace precedes Glory. But there is no glory without the Cross, and the Cross of Jesus Christ is at the heart of the Gospel. Both John the Baptist and Jesus preached Repentance. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is a call to Repentance — a reckoning with our sin and sinfulness.

Wow! What an eye opener. Thank you.

Holy Spirit I ask for conviction of those times I and others like me who have been guilty of this omission of bringing the FULL gospel to the lost. Have mercy oh Lord.

Lord, in the name of Jesus, let the FULL GOSPEL be preached in Your body today! Help us humble ourselves and repent for areas in our lives where we fall short. Your kindness leads us to repentance.

I have been thinking on this bit of scripture, “depart from Me for I never knew you.” I am beginning my jubilee year with the Lord. I can look back on specific times of throwing in the towel, so to speak, and then repenting of my attitudes, my sins of selfishness, ect. I listen to a preacher who often says, “you can repent” when speaking about a specific matter. and another preacher who has passed on, he used to say, “better to fall upon the Rock, than to have the Rock fall upon you.” REPENT!

Father, the enemy always will divide Your people. But Your word says we are to be as the Bereans, checking out everything. Forgive us for ears that itch and we satisfy the itching with titilating glamour and do not look into the Word of God to verify what is being spoken. Bless the prophets and apostles. they are to work together, not separately. All can prophesy, but not all are called to be Prophets. Bless us with grace to seek Your wisdom and to be astute, alert, not mistrusting, but alert.

Help us to choose obedience, no matter how costly in terms of laying down personal pride, to humble ourselves before You so that we can be obedient to what Holy Spirit calls each of us to, whenever, whereever.

Dear Lord, thank you so much for the Blood of Jesus by which I can be cleansed from sin, washed whiter than snow. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. forgive me, us, of seeking to gain intimacy with You by using someone else’s personal experiences with You. That is not Your heart at all. You desire that we each are to know you personally, intimately. so then we do not need to try to live from the personal experiences of others.

It is my prayer that the church will tell the people to exam their life on a daily,no minute by minute basis to see if it lines up with the Word of God. I find that I have said,done or thought something that I need to repent for so I do. Even with that I’m sure something may have gotten by me. We as Christians must always search our hearts for areas that we need to clean out. Pastor,teachers and evangelist preach the true in love but don’t feel you must sugarcoat the Word to make it more palatable. The people need to know that God hates sins and the wages of sin is still Hell- Lord have mercy on us all!

Thank You for this word, Father, and thank You for this dream. Forgive us, Lord, for loving Your gifts more than Your face. We want You, Lord, relationship with You, above everything else. Keep our hearts pure in this coming revival to seek You and give thanks to You for Your mercy and grace. May repentance flow in the midst of revival.

I know that you truly heard from God. God told me the same thing years ago when I visited a church. People were screaming and falling out during the service but God told me to tell the preacher that it was all performance and that the congregation did not repent of their sins or received anything because they went out of the service the way they came in. As a preacher, I must look at myself as well and make sure I am not only handling the word of God correctly but not fearing the consequences of telling the truth of God and being obedient as the Lord leads. God told me in prayer recently that He is examining all of us inside and outside the church.
Pastor Regina Pray for me and other pastors.

Father, May this word in due season root itself deeply into the heart of each and every reader. Father, May we each be quick to repentance and listen closely to the voice of Holy Spirit when He speaks May we each be quick to obey. Father forgive me for being slow to listen, and thank you for Your amazing love to us.🙏🙏

Thank you fir publishing this word. It carries with it a command for us who read it to bring a word of repentance where we become aware of error being embraced and not just about signs and wonders but to give honor and obedience to Jesus wherever the conviction comes.

That’s the truth! God continues to lead me to articles like this because He has me writing a book called: “Get the Sin out of the Church and the Church out of Sin” subtitle: “Saving theChurch from Hell”. That’s why Jesus told the disciples not to rejoice that the demons were subject under them but to rejoice that their name was written in Heaven “.

Wow! Good stuff. Only this morning I was thinking of all the prophets all over the internet preaching Christianity, and I was thinking about false prophets, and how we could know the difference. You have answered my question EXACTLY on time!!! Thank you so much for this.

    Almighty Father God is All- Merciful and equally All- Just.
    The years of preaching only mercy and love have cost us dearly. God’s Justice requires Repentance and Conversion first.

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.

    Amen, Christie. Jonathan Cahn had that wonderful weekend in September in DC, which the mainstream media DID NOT COVER, although there were hundreds of thousands of people there or watching. I think God was giving us a window of opportunity at that time, and so many corrupt people didn’t respond to God’s message. Our nation would be so different from what it is now, had America returned to the Christianity on which it was founded. Alas, it didn’t happen.
