Discern the Times Let's Get Serious

This is not just simply about the Natural Disasters we have been seeing in our Nation and around the World but even in our communitites. The time has come to no longer just quote Scripture to everyone but to be a living loving light and give of ourselves sacrificially.

Let’s get serious Friends, Moral Americans, those who name the name of Christ Jesus and represent his Word and Will. Those who understand what our country believed in a long time ago. It’s time to "put away childish things" as the Apostle Paul said. The time is way past already when we should no longer be about our own business but the business of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. The business of the Kingdom. There is an emergency going on in our land and it is not just in New Orleans and the deep south. But that recent tragedy is a strong and obvious representation of what has been going on and what is going on and what may come all over our country and the world, in different ways.

Put the Word out you who watch on the walls, you who discern the times and seasons. As you may have been able to tell from part one of this message as well as other insights coming our way that what has happened to our country has been of the highest critical nature to the world, our land and way of life, and even the realm of the Spirit. God Almighty is watching and listening to hearts and minds and mouths and actions of his ambassadors on the earth. If you cannot send money you can pray and pray desperately like never before. When you pray just simply ask the Holy Spirit to guide your prayers, your faith, your thoughts, your words, and I’ll bet you he will direct you more than ever to just petition God over and over and hound him to just have his way with our country, our lives, the Church, and so forth. It will work.

Maybe you can do some fasting also. Fasting not just food but personal pleasures, hobbies, interests, foolish TV watching, Movies, unproductive computer time, sports, whining and complaining, criticising and fault finding, taking sides, unforgiveness, and the list goes on and on. Remember "deny self" and it’s desires and wants. No talking hateful spiteful talk about the activity of sinners in their sins. All of us have sinned and maybe still do. If God has blessed you, isn’t it now time to bless others, bless your country, bless the Church, bless the needy everywhere, especially at home and even Israel.

Ask the Holy Spirit to show you what he would have you do. Give to those groups who are doing good, such as the Red Cross, The Salvation Army, the numerous Christian Charities, but don’t just give money. Follow your giving with prayer, petitions, supplications, faith, love, hope, and of course, lavish thanksgiving. Repent of doing what wasn’t spiritually productive and fruitful and beneficial. Repent of not being balanced in your life as a Christian and just leaving whosoever will to suffer whatever fate awaits them. The Bible says to us as Christians that "all things are lawful but not all things are expedient". The Bible also says to "redeem the time because the days are evil". Maybe you’re not someone that this message applies to. If not then you won’t be offended. It’s immaterial who is offended by the truth and by a timely word. What matters is, you will be held accountable for the light that has been shed in your life, as now.

Here’s an idea that is timely and appropriate that I challenge you to take to the Lord in prayer and see what he says about it. It is really a strong appeal to those who are not married and have no children at home to take care of. Primarily because they have more of an ability to uproot and relocate with minimal effect as compared to someone with a family and household. I pray that even this message will go out around the world as there are many mature Christians in other countries who will answer the call. But not just singles, but young people, college students, and others. A few years ago a message was delivered that said that "they are coming to the doors of your homes and not to the church, whether your prepared or not. And we will be held accountable for whatever our level of readiness is." I really apologise for this rough draft and not having the time to edit it. I felt an urgency to get the Word out and here it is.

Maybe what we need is a massive influx of various Christian Home Missionaries and even other moderate conservatives to be prepared to move to the Hurricane ravaged area of the deep south as soon as it is allowed, even gradually. This is our opportunity to really make a change in America in a place that will affect the entire social, economic, cultural, political, and other areas and landscape. If we don’t you can be sure that the Muslims, the New Agers, the Liberals, and other antichristian opportunists will. They won’t mind living at a level below the poverty line, if necessary, for as long as necessary, to achieve their ends. This is our chance even as Biblically Moral people. If we don’t step way out of our comfort zones, lay aside our conveniences, lay down our selfish ways, our financial security, our homes, etc. for our country than we will not only not see what we have been praying for come to pass but we will get nothing at all from the return to prosperity on whatever level there is. Not just financial but in all respects. That area that is now under water and under siege will be rebuilt and it’s connection to the very original fabric of our destiny says all too loudly what should be done. And it’s supposed to be our job. I even feel a little bit silly giving a message that shouldn’t even have to be said. But a lot of Preachers get that way. That’s what the Bible refers to as the "foolishness of preaching".

God in his Divine Wisdom in judging this region and all it represents has given us another opportunity to reclaim our true National Heritage. Not just for the sake of America but for what he raised us up to be in the first place, the main source of exportation of the Bible and the Gospel around the gentile world, for many generations. Because of our default and apathy and fear, etc. we have slipped to an horrible pit. But because there have been numerous Christians praying for God’s will to be done now and as soon and as much as possible, as well as the cries of those who are grieved by and victimised by the wickedness of man and the failure of some in the church, he is on the move. He has heard and has been answering. But we are his instruments on the earth. If we don’t want his will to be done he won’t do it, for us. And when it’s time for him to move he always has multiple reasons, multiple ways and multiple effects. He always does things like that. Even when he gets out the switch to chastise, and this was chastisement not obliteration, he always includes restoration, renewal, transformation, opportunity, etc.

Father God Almighty, in the Name of your precious Son Jesus the Christ, the soon coming King of all the earth, and through the Power and leading of the Holy Spirit, I thank you even in advance for not only wanting to restore Godliness to our Nation and to it’s people but that you have been trying to do so. You have been directing and orchestrating even the prayers of the Saints, many who have passed on and you want to finish the faith you gave them. Direct us as well to pray and work and believe and love and stop sinning as never before. Have your way entirely with our country. Judge where it is needed and appropriate and in judgement remember mercy, as you always do. Pull down what needs to be pulled down, raise up and establish what needs to be, release all manner of Angelic beings to carry out your will, and clean up and clean out our land in a miraculous and huge way. Amen and Selah.

His Will.

In the discerning we must remember to pray for the souls of the muslims, new agers, liberals, and anti-christian. For we all have come short of the Glory of God. Also if it hadn't been for Jesus Christ and His Mercy for Us; We would be lost and a wretch undone. Your message is very important! Today more than ever. God will for all souls to find Christ and be saved. When people go to help, they should remember that and really reach out to all people, even more than Old America did.
