On the Verge of the Great and Terrible

This is a very important repost, as I was so led to do. It was written on New Year's Eve of 2017. It was a prophetic word for the year 2018, but it is applicable now also. Only the Lord can do that; only He knows what is ahead. I surely do not. I follow His lead.

On the Verge of the Great and Terrible

Original Post: Dec 31, 2017

A Word from the Lord Regarding 2018

(NOTE*: Yes, written for 2018 and applicable to 2020 - BP)

(This word from the Lord began after prayer in the sixth hour of the day (morning) on December 29, 2017. The conclusion was completed December 29, 2017 in the 22^nd hour (evening) of the day.

On the Verge of the Great and Terrible

The thing that has been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.  [Eccl 1:9]

Terror shall strike the hearts of multitudes in the approaching year (2018). Things that have only been imagined before shall come to fruition. As I revealed in a night vision (dream), old diseases shall be resurrected and new ones (never before heard of) shall break forth.

(NOTE** - In 2013, I saw in a dream of the night that the Lord had given me, an old style western stagecoach with a team of four to six horses pulling it at rapid speed, heading east. It was in silhouette, which, in this particular case, was understood to mean that the coach was carrying something cloaked in darkness (evil). The horses went at incredible speed (but driven by "man"), heading east, but encircling what I understood to be the globe -BP 2017)

Experiments performed in hidden quarters globally shall now come forth into open places – shocking multitudes, delighting the evil, the lost, the unlearned and the unsuspecting, yet horrifying My people who see beyond the physical and understand the spiritual implications.

(UPDATE 2020 – I could not remember what happened in 2018 in this regard, so I searched.

Some attacks: Kabul Afghanistan (103 dead; 235 injured) Toronto (10 dead; 16 injured) Mitshu China (15 dead; 43 injured) Pakistan (149 killed; 186 injured), too many terrorist attacks to mention, all over; not just in the East, but also West -BP 2020)

Violence shall increase; immorality IS and shall continually increase, to be considered off the charts. 

Government leaders shall continue to change and introduce laws to appease the evil and fleshly desires of the people, whilst also appeasing their own hidden (and for some, not so hidden) desires.

Natural calamities shall continue to break records.  The shaking has begun (and did begin over a decade ago), yet it began in jerky and intermittent motions, so that when an event occurred in cataclysmic proportions, though acknowledged, it was brushed aside as one of “nature’s” cruelties. [Note** - 2004 Indonesian tsunami came to mind – BP2017]

Signs in the heavens are not all from Me, yet I shall allow it, for there are those who will be given “strong delusion”, for they do not desire truth. So it is written, so it shall be.

Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. [2 Thess 2:9-12]

There are those who have secretly been working with evil entities (fallen angels, demons in high and highest rankings), perfecting technology that is destructive and evil beyond measure to bring down the “numbers” upon the earth, so that they may have more control, more wealth, more power and greater status. They have learned how to be safeguarded against certain diseases, how to reverse their years and extend their lives.

Though they shall revel in their findings for a season, they will come to know they have been duped. For this physical life is temporal, as it is written, it is appointed unto all mankind once to die. Yet, it is the second death they should fear, the second death in the lake of fire. [Rev 20:14] Woe to those who mock the Creator, considering themselves as ‘’gods’’.

The “rattling of sabers” has been heard for a long time, yet I say to you that the “rattling” will be replaced by the sound of “clanging”, for the sabers are coming out of their sheaths and out of their places where they have been worn and are being raised high. Warfare is upon the earth – it has hung over the globe as a foreboding cloud of darkness, with outbreaks in certain parts. But the cloud is about to burst and the clanging shall be seen and heard in diverse places globally.

Woe to those who sit in comfort, ignoring their Creator and living for the world.  Their hearts shall fail them for fear, for they will not know what to do or where to go.

Division, division, division…

Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household. [Mat 10:34-36]

I AM dividing – yea, as I told you before, many times over the years, a separating, a dividing, even amongst those who call themselves by My name. You have hard it said, for it is written that, "judgment begins in My house".

[1Pet 4:17] 

But I say to you (and even this messenger has long ago reported) that the shaking HAS BEGUN. It began some years ago.

In 2012 (January 20), I gave this messenger a message which stated: Now It Begins

Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. [Mat 10:26] 

                      

At times, the shaking was violent, yet not long-lasting; other times, the shaking was noticeable but not violent, yet seemed to be without end. It has also been infrequent. These were warnings for those who had eyes to see and ears to hear. It has also been for correction, disciplining, for those who would repent and come into my will for them, so that all would go well for them and that they should bear good fruit.

Yet, as the dust settled, people (including many of My own) returned to their daily routines, oblivious to the hour that has descended upon them. It is late.  Yet a small number (yes, a remnant) became more serious, searching their hearts and asking My Spirit to help them search in case they deceive themselves.

They have drawn closer, many struggling in overcoming, yet determined to learn how to succeed – surrender, sweet surrender…submitting to your Creator. Dying to self, letting go is the key to overcoming. Indeed, not an easy task and truly, one that must be accomplished alone. No one can go with you on the journey of dying (to self).  As birth, so too is death: a journey one must travel alone.

[…] … Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, says the Lord of hosts.  [Zech 4:6]

There are times that answers to prayer are instantaneous and My people marvel at My power and My goodness. Yet, more often than not, answers to prayers seem long in forthcoming. I AM God and all that I do is done decently and in order. Chaos and confusion are of the adversary, the god of this world, the prince of the power of the air.

In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine to them. [2Cor 4:4]

Wherein in time past you walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience: [Eph 2:2]

A grieving is heard in the heavenlies, and hot tears are seen upon the faces of many of My people, for I am answering prayers for truth to be revealed, to protect them from deception. Therefore, there is a witnessing of sheep being separated from sheep. It is true, for it is written that the goats shall be separated from the sheep and the tares from the wheat. I am judging between sheep and sheep.

And as for you, O my flock, thus said the Lord God; Behold, I judge between cattle and cattle (sheep and sheep), between the rams and the he-goats. [Ezek 34:17]

Yea, I tell you that sheep are being separated from sheep, for it is a necessity in these latter times.

Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned My holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they showed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from My Sabbaths, and I am profaned among them. [Ezek 22:26]

There are church leaders who will continue to deceive the multitudes as they fleece the “sheep” and line their pockets with filthy lucre. Their prophets tickle the ears of the people, and the sheep (some, not all) love to have it so as they close their eyes in contentment. They are led by greedy shepherds whose watchmen are as dumb dogs, too lazy to bark out a warning and too sleepy to clearly see the wolves in sheep’s clothing.

Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain. And her prophets have daubed them with untempered morter, seeing vanity and diving lies unto them saying, Thus saith the Lord God, when the Lord has not spoken.
[Ezek 22:27, 28]

Then there are those where I shall strike the shepherd and the sheep shall scatter. Those who are Mine shall run to Me with bitter tears and a broken heart: they will pray for the shepherd and the lazy watchmen. They will pray for each other and they shall wait upon Me for direction.

The people of the land have used oppression, and exercised robbery, and have vexed the poor and needy: yea, they have oppressed the stranger wrongfully. And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before Me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. [Ezek 22:27-30]

There are also church buildings that will see the doors closed, never to be open again. Once saved, always saved is a lie from the enemy, for it is written that many shall fall away. 

(Note** - I understood that indeed, nothing can pluck us out of our Lord's hand, and that He will never leave or forsake us, but Satan can, has and will continue to pull many away and bring them into destruction and damnation. I do not speak of prodigals, but apostates who are given over to a reprobate mind.

Below is a fearful word, scriptures that should make the smuggest or overconfident person think twice and examine their heart and actions. BP)

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness, full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful,

Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. [Rom 1:28-32]
Also: 

Now the Spirit speaks expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of devils; speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; [1Tim 4:1, 2]

“Well, they weren’t really saved,” many say, trying to explain as they parrot one another. Yet, I say that they who put their hand to the plow, looking back, longing for things of the past, are not fit for the kingdom. 

(Note** - In his book, “Commonly Misunderstood Bible Verses”, author Ron Rhodes explains that with the primitive plows back in Jesus’ day, if a man took his eyes off of his work and looked backward, the furrow he was plowing became crooked, which was unacceptable and could do more damage than good. Ron Rhodes goes on to explain that Jesus was implying that service in Him requires the whole heart and not double-mindedness (not lukewarm, one foot in world; one in kingdom). BP)

Think upon Lot’s wife who was “saved” from Sodom, but she disobeyed the command not to look back. Her heart was still in Sodom, and though she was saved and free from the sinful clutches of Sodom, a part of her longed for it, even knowing it was under judgment from Me, and that longing caused her to lose her salvation (being saved from judgment).

Others quote My Son: And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through your own name those whom you have given me, that they may be one, as we are. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name: those that you gave Me, I have kept and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition (Judas); that the scripture might be fulfilled. [Jn 17:11, 12]

I have given people the power to choose. They can choose to stay or they can choose to look back as Lot’s wife. Some will return as the prodigal son did (many are returning; don't give up praying); fully and wholly repentant; others will not return for they love their sin.

There are also false brethren who carry My name only, but the love and fruit are not evident. Some walk in obvious anger and bitterness because they are unwilling to forgive any that offended and brought about their hurt. 

(Note* - I saw plastic fruit in my mind's eye and understood that some fruit looks good outwardly, but in the end, is unfulfilling. BP)

Such as these refuse to humble themselves and admit their sin; therefore, it consumes them. They justify their own sins while pointing their accusing finger at others, 
(Note* - I understood they were similar to the Pharisees. BP)

They refuse to forgive. Such is pride, for they exalt themselves above others, thinking more highly of themselves than they ought. Such as these can still repent, but more often than not, are halted by pride and through the enemy's deception that blinds them...

This was the sin of Satan before he fell. In his pride, he exalted himself which led to his rebellion. And as if that alone were not enough, he influenced and led one-third of My holy angels into rebellion with his cunning, craftiness and smooth, convincing words. Together, they all fell from My glory and now seek to influence and lead as many as they can of mankind into rebellion against My Christ, My Word and against Me. Woe to those who follow after unrighteousness, pride and rebellion.

Yes, division is happening. Not only are unbelievers divided against believers/disciples of Christ, but also a dividing among the sheep as well.

Immorality Increases and More Open

The adversary (Satan) is the author of confusion. It is he who has introduced another gender, male or female, the blend is uncertain and brings confusion. Transgender, unspecified gender – indeed, this is the effort to make a mockery of My creation. Satan seeks to steal, kill and destroy. [Jn 10:10]

This is part of the mission of Satan and his armies. He seeks to take that which is good and call it evil and take that which is evil and call it good. He even seeks to deceive My people through false teachers and false prophets, who subtly command, with cunning and craftiness that  My people, the disciples of Christ, must accept this new, undefined gender in order to prove their love for Me. 

Many of the homosexuals and transgenders are being ordained and are preaching and teaching the multitudes. Acceptance of these sins, they say, is to obey the second commandment to love your neighbour as you love yourself; they lie. For they twist My Word as surely as the serpent twisted My word in the Garden of Eden and again, in the desert wilderness in the temptation of Jesus. Did My Christ not foretell that IF it were possible, even the elect will be deceived?

For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. [Mat 24:24]

Countless police are turning on the people and slaying them, and multitudes are likewise turning on police and slaying them. 

Technology is far more advanced than the general population knows. There are those that walk amongst you undetected, perfected humanoids, an ideal vessel for a demon to possess.

I have risen from My throne. The shaking increases – judgment falls, and has been falling for some time. It shall increase. It is moving over the lands as surely as famine, pestilence and death moved over Egypt at the time that the locusts came, and pestilence, and the first born of both man and beast were slain [Ex 11:5]; when Pharaoh’s hard heart had no fear of the Creator of all things, the God of Israel.

And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. [2Pet 3:4]

But as the days of Noe (Noah) were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. [Mat 24:37-39]

Water was the judgment the first time and fire shall be the finality of latter judgment. Already records for drought and forest fires have been broken. Earthquakes and mighty whirlwinds continue to increase in intensity and frequency in diverse places as foretold. Increase in power and destruction, the mountains of fire (volcanoes) shall unleash their fury. 

The stars (asteroids, meteors, meteorites, comets) are being sent forth as warnings, as soon, as part of judgment, for it is written that it shall be so in the latter days. Yet another shall come...

There are those, even among My people who say these things have always been. Indeed, it is so, yet they fail to read My word and understand. They fail to believe in My Son and reject My word.

Others who believe do not keep My Son as their first love, nor seek My face and to receive My counsel, wisdom and direction through My Spirit.

Repent, change your heart and mind and understand that I am God. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth, for the devil has come down, having great wrath, for he knows he has but a short time. [Rev 12:12]

A God of Justice and Judgment

Much is being exposed. Many who have reveled in the spotlight are having the rug pulled out from under them. How long must I behold a rebellious and evil people? How much must I allow to happen before their eyes are open to see the times they are in, and the filth and stench of the sins that they wallow in? When will they run to the valley of decision? When will they flee and be upon the mountains, like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, everyone for his iniquity? [Ezek 7:16]

How long will they shake their fists at Me or turn their backs away, ignoring Me altogether? Many will mistake the wrath of the devil for My wrath. Though multitudes of My people have experienced (and will continue to experience) persecution and tribulations due to the devil’s wrath, those who are Mine in Christ will not experience the day of the Lord, when My wrath is loosed upon the earth.

I am drawing people, getting their attention. Oh that they would choose life though My Son. On the verge of the terrible – indeed!

The Great

My people, be strong and of good courage, for I shall never leave nor forsake you. Continue in your faith, holding fast to your first love, Jesus my Son. Keep on the full armour and walk in obedience to My commandments, ever keeping a repentant heart. It is not the time to faint or to give up! 

You are on the verge of great things. I have told you that answers to prayers and the unfolding of long-awaited dreams and visions shall come suddenly and unexpectedly.

You have laid down your life - you have waited patiently. Give thanks, for miracles still happen – the impossible is possible with Me, through and in Christ Jesus (Yeshua), the Creator of all things. Healing, restoration, restitution and even reversals shall take place this coming year to those who have obediently walked with Me, through my Son Jesus the Christ.

Even the unsaved shall experience miracles, as I continue to draw many to Myself, from all religions, all cultures and nations.  It is My desire that none should perish but that all should come to repentance. [2Pet 3:9] There shall even be, for some, reversals of years; those who have been promised such understand. They shall walk in humility and love, and power, doing justly.

It shall be a sign to multitudes of My promise to restore and reconcile all things unto Myself. [Deut 30:3-11; Col 1:20; Joel 2:22-25]

And the Lord answered me and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tablets, that he may run that reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith. [Hab 2:2-4]

Many have prayed to be purged and purified. It has not been comfortable or easy by any means. At times, many of My people have wanted out of the fire, wanted out of the waiting, and have longed to leave this earth and join Me, yet when I stayed My hand, ignoring their request and kept them alive, they have repented of their hasty words, learning that through it all their faith becomes stronger. They learn to persevere and overcome, and offer up thanksgiving.

Keep in mind that many forerunners, such as Job, Moses, Elijah, David et al, have hastily spoken and longed to leave this earth as well.

Then Job answered the Lord and said: I know that You can do everything, and that no thought can be withheld from You. Who is he that hides counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that which I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not.  [Job 42:1-3]

Indeed, My longsuffering covers numerous areas. As it is written, My thoughts are not your thoughts and My ways are not your ways. [Is 55:8, 9] I see the end from the beginning. [Is 46:10] I know each heart. I continue to do a good work in My people, as they submit to Me, allowing Me to have My perfect way with them and help each who desire to stay humbly in My will.

Not everything that happens is or will be understood, but that is where trust must hold strong. Although many who have held positions of leadership are being removed, those who have been seemingly on the sidelines are being raised up and placed in those positions of leadership. 

Beware that you do not think more highly of yourself than you ought, but to think soberly, according as I have dealt to every man the measure of faith. Therefore, let him that thinks he stands, take heed lest he fall.  [Rom 12:3; 1 Cor 10:12]

Hearts have been tried – much dross removed. Small beginnings should never be despised. I have been correcting and disciplining My children. Those who acknowledge Me in humble repentance will be healed and restored as vessels unto honour. There are those in leadership who have submitted humbly to the discipline and shall become mightier in leadership, giving glory to My Son,for they have allowed themselves to be conformed into Christ’s image. [Rom 8:29] 

It has been and is a process; one must yield (submit). I am the potter, you are the clay.

Remember to continue to walk in love and walk humbly before Me, do justly, love mercy [Micah 6:8] and pray one for another. [Jam 5:16] Rejoice, knowing that I am your strength and that I am working all things out. Keep your eyes and ears open, for as surely as light penetrates and scatters darkness, so shall this year also bring miracles, signs and wonders that penetrate and scatter the impossible.

Abide in the Vine, My Son so that you will be able to discern the true from the counterfeit, for as it is written, there will be false Christs and false prophets (and Satan himself) who will also produce signs and wonders. Keep your lamps filled with oil; be as the five wise virgins.

I am God and nothing is impossible with Me. Give thanks and worship Me in spirit and in truth. Break through (bursting forth) is coming. Keep your eyes on Me, for My people shall not be ashamed.

Baal-perazim (means: Lord bursts (breaks) through) Victory was assured IF David obeyed the Lord’s instructions [2 Sam 5:19] David obeyed and he gave God all the glory for the victory [v 20]. He was given a signal (a sign) from God. He was told to watch for the strong, mighty wind that would go over the tops of the mulberry trees; that was when he was to go forth to battle and victory.
[v 24]

Remember that I promised a breakthrough which shall come suddenly and unexpectedly to the children of light who have waited upon Me. Ask for confirmation, for I am well pleased when My people try the spirit to see if it is of Me.

And I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten, the cankerworm, and caterpillar, and the palmerworm, My great army which I sent among you. And you shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God that has dealt wondrously with you: and My people shall never be ashamed. [Joel 2:25, 26]

Behold, the whirlwind of the Lord goes forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked. The fierce anger of the Lord shall not return, until He has done it, and until He have performed the intents of His heart: in the latter days, you shall consider it. 

[Jer 30:23, 24]

Behold, 2018 is the year where people will most certainly realize that the world is indeed:
On the verge of the great and terrible!
