Prayer to the Lord concerning hypocrites
Job 8:12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb. 13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish: 14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web. 15 He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.
Lord Jesus, we pray that these ones who have forgotten God, who have driven him out of the schools, that their hope shall perish. We pray that their hope will be cut off. Their trust is not in God, it is the web of deceit they have woven. Lord Jesus, we pray you would blow on their house and that it's fall would be great.
Job 15:28 And he dwelleth in desolate cities, and in houses which no man inhabiteth, which are ready to become heaps. 29 He shall not be rich, neither shall his substance continue, neither shall he prolong the perfection thereof upon the earth. 30 He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and by the breath of his mouth shall he go away. 31 Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity: for vanity shall be his recompense. 32 It shall be accomplished before his time, and his branch shall not be green. 33 He shall shake off his unripe grape as the vine, and shall cast off his flower as the olive. 34 For the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery. 35 They conceive mischief, and bring forth vanity, and their belly prepareth deceit.
Lord Jesus shine a light on the desolate cities they have created, the cities which are ready to become heaps. They have turned the rich and beautiful land into desolation. We pray the flame will dry up his branches as many flee the riots and looting. Jesus they trust in vanity so we pray that vanity would be their recompense. Lord we remind you of your word: "the congregation of hypocrites shall be desolate, and fire shall consume the tabernacles of bribery". Lord Jesus they conceived mischief, they brought forth vanity, they prepared deceit. As they have done let it be done unto them.
Job 17:6 He hath made me also a byword of the people; and aforetime I was as a tabret. 7 Mine eye also is dim by reason of sorrow, and all my members are as a shadow. 8 Upright men shall be astonied at this, and the innocent shall stir up himself against the hypocrite.
Lord they made us a byword, they called us deplorable and irredeemable. I pray that the upright men will rise up at this, we pray the innocent shall stir himself up against the hypocrites.
Job 20:5 That the triumphing of the wicked is short, and the joy of the hypocrite but for a moment? 6 Though his excellency mount up to the heavens, and his head reach unto the clouds; 7 Yet he shall perish for ever like his own dung: they which have seen him shall say, Where is he? 8 He shall fly away as a dream, and shall not be found: yea, he shall be chased away as a vision of the night.
Lord Jesus, we remind you of the word and your promise. May their triumphing be short. They have had their time in the sun, You said it would be but for a moment. Now is the time for them to perish like their own dung. Now is the time for them to fly away like a bad dream. Lord we pray that visions in the night would chase them away.
Job 34:24 He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead. 25 Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed. 26 He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others; 27 Because they turned back from him, and would not consider any of his ways: 28 So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. 29 When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: 30 That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared.
Lord Jesus they turned back from following you, they have oppressed the poor, the widows, and the fatherless. May their cries reach your ears. We pray that the hypocrite reign not lest the people be ensnared.

Lord Jesus I pray you would bind the hypocrites. They have heaped up wrath in their hearts, may you bundle them with the tares for the fire.
Proverbs 11:9 An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

Lord Jesus, we look to you to stretch out your hand against the hypocrites, they speak folly, they have no mercy on the fatherless and widows and they are all evildoers.

May this petition be laid before the throne of grace, may this petition be sealed with the blood of Jesus Christ who paid for my redemption and the redemption of all those who are crying to Him for judgement on this evil, for mercy on those who have been trampled under foot and for faith in Your word that You will fulfill it. Amen and Amen.
Job 8:12 Whilst it is yet in his greenness, and not cut down, it withereth before any other herb. 13 So are the paths of all that forget God; and the hypocrite's hope shall perish: 14 Whose hope shall be cut off, and whose trust shall be a spider's web. 15 He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand: he shall hold it fast, but it shall not endure.

PROPHECY--SNAKE IN THE GRASS
The Snake Song by Al Wilson (1968) On her way to work one morning down the path alongside the lake A tender-hearted woman saw a poor half-frozen snake His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew Oh well, she cried, I'll take you in and I'll take care of you Take me in, oh, tender woman Take me in, for heavens sake Take me in, tender woman, sighed the snake She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk And laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk Now she hurried home from work that night, as soon as she arrived She found that pretty snake she'd taken in had been revived. (Chorus repeated) Now she clutched him to her bosom, you're so beautiful, she cried But if I hadn't brought you in, by now you might have died Now she stroked his pretty skin and then kissed and held him tight But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite (Chorus repeated) I saved you! cried the woman, and you've bit me, even why? And you know your bite is poisonous, and now I'm gonna die Oh, shut up, silly woman, said the reptile with a grin You knew darn well I was a snake before you took me in! (Chorus repeated) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SNAKE IN THE GRASS
Jeremiah 50: 6-7 6 My people hath been lost sheep: their shepherds have caused them to go astray, they have turned them away on the mountains: they have gone from mountain to hill, they have forgotten their resting place. 7 All that found them have devoured them: and their adversaries said, We offend not, because they have sinned against the LORD, the habitation of justice, even the LORD, the hope of their fathers.
My son, hear now and write these words to My Body, My Children, and My Remnant. I say unto you - Cast not your cares upon this world, and trust not in a man to save you - for I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SAVE YOU. The man My children clamor for is just a deception. He will say all the right words and sway the hearts of many. But do not be misled by his smooth words and his promises, for he is the snake that hides in the grass. I know his heart - full of vanity and pride - will one day turn on those who loved him so.
My son, the arrows that fly by night will soon be striking this land. Great destruction will come when the people are at war with the government. THE FALL OF MYSTERY BABYLON IS AT HAND BECAUSE MY BODY DID NOT OBEY MY WORD AND REPENT. My body CONTINUES in sin and iniquity and REFUSES to see the evil that they call holy. As they worship, the ODOR ascends to heaven, and it is PUTRID. They worship themselves and cause many to fall. REPENT NOW! For My judgment will fall on you. REPENT NOW! Turn to Me - not man.
My son, I will pour out My indignation upon them. I will fan the fire of My wrath, and I will deliver them to brutish men who are skillful to destroy - while you look to false gods of men to deliver you. WHY HAS MY BODY DENIED THAT I AM? I AM sending war upon this nation and its people. My body will be confused because they have BELIEVED NOT in My Word, but in the twisted words of false pastors and teachers. I will give them what they want - a divided nation with an evil king. They are so blinded that they do not see the evil, but soon the snake in the grass will strike them.
My son, the words of My many servants are now coming to pass. Many in My body will wake up - but TOO LATE - for My judgments are now pressing in. SHOUT REPENT!! to My sleeping Body! SHOUT WAKE UP!! to My sleeping Bride! Many have awakened and are BRACED - for they have anchored to the ROCK and will withstand the COMING STORM. Continue in prayer, for the battles are won on your knees. Continue in My Word, for you need this weapon to conquer the enemy. REPENT DAILY to stay holy and righteous before Me. I love you all, My children, but time is being shortened. WILL YOU BE READY???
Amen. Lord Jesus

Pride goes before a fall
33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.
We have been told that people we did not expect will be raptured while those we would expect will not be. Peter obviously had a very high opinion of himself, thinking that of all the followers he would be the one who would not be offended. But after he did deny the Lord what do you think happened? Perhaps like Paul he saw himself as "less than the least of all saints". Regardless of how much he was humbled, the bottom line was that he was humbled and that means he also began to appreciate the brothers and sisters. We should all appreciate that being a Christian is a team sport, none of us can do this on our own, we need one another and we need to appreciate one another.

The pretribulation rapture is the manchild being caught up
Leviticus 12:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
This is one reason I feel that the rapture before the seven years of tribulation is the manchild being caught up in Revelation 12. The Christians that are left behind are the "woman" that has brought forth the manchild. They are unclean for seven days of "the separation".

Prayer
3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.
Lord Jesus, I pray to be one with You as I contend with the faith.
4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Lord Jesus I pray that those who are denying You, the only Lord God and my Lord Jesus Christ, that they would be exposed, pull the curtain away so that all could see the little men behind the curtain, and expose them for what they are, turning the grace of God into lasciviousness.
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. 6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. 7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. 8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
Lord Jesus expose the filthy dreamers, the ones who despise dominion, the ones who defile the flesh and the ones who speak evil of dignities.
9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. 10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
Lord give us the words of gold fitted in sockets of silver, the "mic drops" that expose them for speaking about things they know not like brute beasts
11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
Lord expose them, may the blood of Abel cry out against them, may donkeys rebuke them publicly, and may the earth open up and swallow them up for their rebellion against You.
12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
Lord Jesus, fill them with fear as they see you ride out upon them with ten thousands of your saints, coming to execute judgement on them for their ungodly deeds they have done to the children and the widows and the parents.
16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
All these many things we ask in the precious name of Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords, and my redeemer. Amen and amen.
3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
Lord Jesus I pray that those who are denying You, the only Lord God and my Lord Jesus Christ, that they would be exposed, pull the curtain away so that all could see the little men behind the curtain, and expose them for what they are, turning the grace of God into lasciviousness.
5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this, how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. 6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day. 7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. 8 Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.
Lord Jesus expose the filthy dreamers, the ones who despise dominion, the ones who defile the flesh and the ones who speak evil of dignities.
9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee. 10 But these speak evil of those things which they know not: but what they know naturally, as brute beasts, in those things they corrupt themselves.
Lord give us the words of gold fitted in sockets of silver, the "mic drops" that expose them for speaking about things they know not like brute beasts
11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core.
Lord expose them, may the blood of Abel cry out against them, may donkeys rebuke them publicly, and may the earth open up and swallow them up for their rebellion against You.
12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.
14 And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
15 To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
Lord Jesus, fill them with fear as they see you ride out upon them with ten thousands of your saints, coming to execute judgement on them for their ungodly deeds they have done to the children and the widows and the parents.
16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
All these many things we ask in the precious name of Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords, and my redeemer. Amen and amen.
It is a leprosy
15 And the priest shall see the raw flesh, and pronounce him to be unclean: for the raw flesh is unclean: it is a leprosy.
How many times in this age, in this world have we seen the raw flesh? We know it is unclean, it is also leprosy. A contagious disease that signifies rebellion against God.
