The stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Acts 4:1 And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, 2 Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.
In the gospels all of the attack was focused on Jesus, the disciples were rarely required to do more than observe Him being attacked. At the beginning of our Christian life we should be spectators, like a child, watching their father do a job. But we should be watching so that in the near future we too could do that job.
3 And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide.
Look at the transformation in Peter, a few months earlier it was Jesus who was arrested and he was afraid of a maid. Now he is the one standing in Jesus' shoes, the one arrested. Peter is in the image and likeness of Jesus Christ because Jesus lives within Him and it is no longer he that lives but Jesus Christ, the hope of glory, that leads him.
4 Howbeit many of them which heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.
Peter's evangelistic ministry is growing. First it was three thousand, now it is five thousand!
5 And it came to pass on the morrow, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes, 6 And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem. 7 And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have ye done this?
Jesus was asked by what authority He did what He did and instead of answering He asked a question about the authority of John the Baptist's baptism. But Peter doesn't take that route because things have changed. This reminds me of Jesus on the mount of transfiguration telling the disciples not to tell anyone about this until after He had been glorified.
8 Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, 9 If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole;
Be careful, Satan will frequently ask vague questions when the context makes is abundantly clear what he is talking about. This way they can quote you accurately but change the context and make it seem like you are saying something completely different. Peter is wise here to clarify what "this" refers to.
10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
Now that Jesus has been raised from the dead Peter is free to tell them what he had seen earlier on the mount of transfiguration. The teachers of the law get their authority from Moses, and the prophets trace their ministry back to Elijah. Peter knows that both of those guys looked up to Jesus as Lord.
11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
He does not hold back on charging them with incompetence.
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Nor does he back down from the claim that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation. Verse 11 and 12 should be memorized by all.

The Proper response to censorship
Acts 4:13 Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus. 14 And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it. 15 But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves, 16 Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it. 17 But that it spread no further among the people, let us straitly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name. 18 And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.
By what authority are they doing this? Facebook claimed it was their platform, Youtube claimed it was their platform. OK, I would recommend leaving their platform but if not, they do have the authority to censor you. But the temple belongs to God and the people. The Jewish rulers do not control that platform, God does.
19 But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge ye.
Precisely, know the authority that you have when you speak.
20 For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.
This applies to every witness who tells the truth.
21 So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done. 22 For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was shewed.

A prayer for ministry
23 And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.
24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:
There is no limit to the miracles that God can do.
25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? 26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.
Be assured, this is what will happen
27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together, 28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done.
Pray that the Lord maneuver these rulers like chess pieces on the board for the advancement of the gospel.
29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, 30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus.
Here is a great prayer.
31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.

How do you pray concerning a spiritual attack?
The book of 1 Samuel shows us how. It seems this book is full of bullies. Peninnah is a bully, the sons of Eli are bullies, King Saul is a bully, Goliath is a bully. Recently dealing with bullies has become a major issue in schools and on social media.
It is easy for us to empathize with Hannah. She is being mocked, she is being ridiculed, but does anyone empathize with God? He also was being mocked and ridiculed by Eli’s sons. Yes, Hannah needed a son to put an end to this constant bullying but God also needed a son. When we read this story it is easy for God to give Hannah children, that is not an issue. The issue is to get Hannah to give God a son. Instead of looking at bullying as coming from Satan, it is evil, the people who do it are wicked. Change your view, “all things work out for good to those who love God and are called according to purpose”. Align yourself with God and His purpose. God is doing something because He needs something from you. What does God need? Easy, what do you need? Hannah needed a son, so she prayed that if God gave her a son she would give this son to God.
If you need a car, then assume God needs a car and consecrate any car that God gives you to Him. If you need a house, assume God needs a house and consecrate any house God gives you to Him. If you need a job, then consecrate any job that God will give you to Him.
Teach us to pray, what should we say?
“I have spoken out of my great concern and bitter provocation”. If you are one that loves God and you are being bullied like Hannah was ask God to open your eyes, let you see what the reason is, what is it that He needs, and then don’t just pray, make a vow.
Lesson number one in dealing with bullies, ask for your salvation from the Lord and consecrate yourself fully to the Lord.
What about your consecration? If you belong to the Lord and are wholly given to the Lord then if someone attacks you they are attacking the Lord. When you are bullied do you have this confidence that this is not just an attack on you but it is an attack on the Lord Jesus?

Pray for actionable intelligence
King Saul, the guy who is going to be king, is first portrayed as being “blind” and clueless. Meanwhile, Samuel, the man of God has the very best intelligence. God has provided him with amazing information. In my own experience I have had times where the Lord spoke to me like this. I was able to see what people were thinking and what they were planning. With the Lord you hear what you need to hear and no more, no confusing information, all of it is actionable intelligence.
So pray for the Lord to let you know what the enemy is thinking, what he is planning and what you should do.
We tend to think that these rulers and leaders are all equipped with amazing classified information from the CIA and NSA. The problem is too much information and people hedging on their bets can make it impossible to decipher. I am reminded of an incredible game where Michael Jordan was extremely sick during game five of the NBA finals against Utah (food poisoning). Everyone watching the game knew this. At the end of the game they asked the Utah coach about it and he had been completely unaware that Jordan was sick.
So then in addition to praying to know what the enemy is doing pray that the enemy would not know what you are doing, what you are planning, what your condition is. Pray that you would be covered by the Lord, hidden from the enemy. We have a God who hides Himself. If the God of the universe can hide Himself, He can certainly hide you. I remember before the fourth super bowl that Montana played in the debate was over whether or not he was good or just lucky. They saw this fourth superbowl against Denver and a hall of fame quarterback (John Elway) as being a test to prove whether he was just lucky or good. The forty niners obliterated Denver in that game, Montana won his third Superbowl MVP and from that moment on he was considered the best quarterback ever (until Brady). His talent was "hidden" despite everything he had already won. The same was true of Brady. He had gone to nine superbowls, won six of them and still when he went to Tampa almost no one gave them a chance of going to the Superbowl, much less winning it. He had to beat three hall of fame quarterbacks to win that Superbowl with a new team that had never won before. But when he did he had more Superbowl wins (7) than any NFL team. The debate was over, at that point everyone conceded he was the best quarterback ever. Real warriors hide their talent. God will hide Himself in us. We are the best disguise for Jesus Christ in whom all the treasures of knowledge and wisdom reside. Think of this like Petrified wood. It looks like Petrified wood, you can't believe by just looking at it that it isn't just a piece of wood. But kick it and you will be sorry, it isn't wood, it is a stone, a Jasper stone. Jesus is the stone that the builders rejected and has become the head of the corner. Likewise, if you are a stone that the builders have rejected you are a perfect disguise for the Lord of the Universe.
So then in addition to praying for actionable intelligence pray that the Lord confound and confuse the enemy. Pray that you would be hidden beneath His wings.

A Plan for the church during the tribulation
Acts 4:32 And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that ought of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.
During the tribulation this is what you need. The "famine" means there is no excess, but if everyone pulls together and shares with one another there can be enough.
33 And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all. 34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold, 35 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.
For fifty years we have been living in luxury and so look at the tribulation as the Jubilee year. You can't sow, you can't reap, but you can share.
36 And Joses, who by the apostles was surnamed Barnabas, (which is, being interpreted, The son of consolation,) a Levite, and of the country of Cyprus, 37 Having land, sold it, and brought the money, and laid it at the apostles' feet.

PROPHECY/DREAM-- SHOCKWAVES. Pt1
U B Ready 1/11/2026 Received 1/9/2026 SHOCKWAVES (Part 1)
Haggai 2:6-9 6 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; 7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. 8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. 9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.
DREAM: Upon waking from sleep on Jan 9, I immediately heard the words "Write and Remember." I then realized I had just awakened from a very heavy and serious dream from the Lord where I saw 5 POWERFUL SHOCKWAVES that will soon SHAKE this nation (and the world) to its core. I was above the earth, looking down on North America. Suddenly, my attention was drawn to the center of the nation. I saw what looked like a giant SHOCKWAVE hit the land with a tremendous force. I heard vibrations of sound and saw giant energy waves flow and spread out in all directions over the entire nation to the borders and beyond. I can only describe it as resembling ripple waves when a rock is thrown into a pond. Immediately after that wave, I saw a golden liquid substance streaming down like a waterfall from above, flowing onto the central area, then spreading out across the entire nation and beyond.
In the dream, I asked, What am I seeing? I was then taken farther up which allowed me to then see two massive angels above the U.S. One angel was holding a giant silver tuning fork. The other angel was holding a large, gravy boat-like vessel with a long spout. I saw the first angel use the tuning fork to strike the ground with great force, creating the 2nd SHOCKWAVE. This wave was stronger and more powerful than the first.
Immediately after this, I saw the second angel begin pouring the liquid from his vessel out onto the ground, flowing from there out in all directions across the land. I watched in awe as these two giant angels continued to alternate back and forth, striking the ground and pouring out the vessel - one after the other - for three more SHOCKWAVES. I saw that each successive wave was larger, stronger, more powerful, and more shocking than the previous one. This dream weighed heavy on my mind and heart all day while at work. The things that I had seen in the dream came before my eyes in flash visions.
Upon arriving home from work, I immediately went to spend time with the Lord and to pray over all He had shown me. He said that this would be the hardest word I've ever had to give since I started in 2017. Here is what He then spoke to me.
My son, I have shown you 5 SHOCKWAVES that will affect My church, the nation, and the world. Even though each SHOCKWAVE originates in America, the wave will circle the world. I will break down each wave. Tell My children this is a very hard word, but DO NOT FEAR.
SHOCKWAVE 1 - The Church
As My Word says, judgment will start in the house of the Lord. I see all the unholy activities occurring in My body. I say now, WOE to the false teachers and pastors who have led My children away from the truth. You teach a false gospel based upon man's wicked lusts. I will visit these unholy buildings that hold tens of thousands of souls. Many in My body follow and believe the lies these false teachers spout. THIS SHOCKWAVE WILL SHAKE THE CHURCH SO HARD that many will flee in terror, for they cannot stand in My Glory. It will be as in the days of the early church - Ananias and Sapphira could not stand - and perished. So it will be again. Where there is no faith - faith will abound when I visit these churches. The faces of many megachurch pastors came before my eyes, and I saw them being exposed. I heard, "My Father will visit them." I saw blinders removed from the eyes of the people.
SHOCKWAVE 2 - Cities in Trouble
My son, the cities will be hit with much violence. Paid agitators that have no morals will lead rebellions in all the large cities. Red or blue does not matter as these people with reprobate minds run loose to cause chaos. Where is My church? Where are My prayer warriors? Because My Word is not taught in most churches, there are no prayers. These agitators are like rats. They hide during the day and come out at night. Many cities will burn. A map of the U.S. came up before me with cities lighting up one by one. I wrote the names as I saw each light up:
Boston,
New York City,
Philadelphia,
Washington DC,
Columbus OH,
Chicago,
St. Louis,
Oklahoma City,
Nashville,
Atlanta,
Miami,
Dallas,
Houston,
Phoenix,
Denver,
St Lake City,

PROPHECY-- 2026 THE YEAR OF TERROR
Isaiah 24:1-6 1 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. 2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usery, so with the giver of usery to him. 3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word. 4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. 5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore, hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
My son, hear now and write this warning to My body. I have wept for My church, for they REFUSE TO WAKE UP! So with great pains, I must SHAKE THEM AWAKE! The year 2026 will bring about a GREAT SHAKING in My church. Shepherds will FALL and flocks will SCATTER as the SIN IS REVEALED. While My body enjoys the "experiences" (modern day church services), I WILL BRING BACK THE FEAR AND AWE OF GOD. The earth will SHAKE AND TREMBLE at the Glory of the King of Kings. My church will learn a NEW word called REPENTANCE. My FIRE will fill the houses of those who seek Me with all their hearts. Yea, 2026 WILL BE A YEAR OF GREAT SHAKINGS!!!
My son, so many in My body are ignorant to how many of the enemy have come into America. I HAVE WARNED that the enemy is not coming - but they are INSIDE THE CAMP! This enemy hates everyone and everything, and are now released to bring CHAOS across the land. There is no middle ground - you either bow to their god or die. Blood will run in the streets in 2026. My son, men's hearts will fail them as they look upon the TERRORS OF 2026.
My son, 2026 will slide further into the PROFANE. Things that are HOLY are treated with UNHOLY disregard. WORSHIP is no longer sought in My body - only CARNALITY. REPENTENCE is a word ABSENT from the hearts of those who call themselves by My Great Name. Yes - 2026 will see the SHAKING of My church, and many will FALL OUT and FLEE, but My Chosen will be on their KNEES. Repent now! I say.
My son, I tell you now - 2026 will be a YEAR OF CHANGE. People will look back and say, What a hard year! Yet 2027 will be worse, and 2028 will be even worse. People will LONG for the past years as the birth pains INCREASE IN FREQUENCY AND INTENSITY. Nothing will be the same. CORRUPT politicians give way to DICTATORSHIPS. CHAOS gives way to CIVIL WAR - Americans versus Terrorists (Isl**ists). Prepare for the 2026 SHOCK - the outcome will drive the left mad. Political corruption will be exposed, and military tribunals will be the law as most lawyers are corrupt. Treason will be the new buzzword. BRACE YOURSELVES!!! My children, for now is the TIME TO REVEAL that aliens are among us. DO NOT BE DECEIVED!!! THEY ARE DEMONS SENT TO CONFUSE MY CHILDREN AND CHALLENGE MY WORD. REPENT NOW, TURN TO ME, AND TRUST IN MY WORD. WAR!! WAR!! WAR is everywhere. MASS MURDER is everywhere. BRACE!! BRACE!! BRACE!!!
My son, tell them I love them, and I AM coming very soon!
Amen. Lord Jesus Christ
Isaiah 24:1-6 1 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof. 2 And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usery, so with the giver of usery to him. 3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken this word. 4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish. 5 The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore, hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
My son, hear now and write this warning to My body. I have wept for My church, for they REFUSE TO WAKE UP! So with great pains, I must SHAKE THEM AWAKE! The year 2026 will bring about a GREAT SHAKING in My church. Shepherds will FALL and flocks will SCATTER as the SIN IS REVEALED. While My body enjoys the "experiences" (modern day church services), I WILL BRING BACK THE FEAR AND AWE OF GOD. The earth will SHAKE AND TREMBLE at the Glory of the King of Kings. My church will learn a NEW word called REPENTANCE. My FIRE will fill the houses of those who seek Me with all their hearts. Yea, 2026 WILL BE A YEAR OF GREAT SHAKINGS!!!
My son, so many in My body are ignorant to how many of the enemy have come into America. I HAVE WARNED that the enemy is not coming - but they are INSIDE THE CAMP! This enemy hates everyone and everything, and are now released to bring CHAOS across the land. There is no middle ground - you either bow to their god or die. Blood will run in the streets in 2026. My son, men's hearts will fail them as they look upon the TERRORS OF 2026.
- The economy will take a DIVE - but not die. However, the new digital money will RISE.
- Beware, My children, of AI. They will CREATE new gods for people to worship.
- 2026 will be a year like no other as the earth will REEL to and fro like a drunken man.
- Weather will seem to have a mind of its own - only men are directing it.
My son, 2026 will slide further into the PROFANE. Things that are HOLY are treated with UNHOLY disregard. WORSHIP is no longer sought in My body - only CARNALITY. REPENTENCE is a word ABSENT from the hearts of those who call themselves by My Great Name. Yes - 2026 will see the SHAKING of My church, and many will FALL OUT and FLEE, but My Chosen will be on their KNEES. Repent now! I say.

I will not be enquired of by you
You have to deal with sin before you can pray.
Ezekiel 20:1 And it came to pass in the seventh year, in the fifth month, the tenth day of the month, that certain of the elders of Israel came to enquire of the Lord, and sat before me. 2 Then came the word of the Lord unto me, saying, 3 Son of man, speak unto the elders of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Are ye come to enquire of me? As I live, saith the Lord God, I will not be enquired of by you.
The prayer of a righteous man availeth much, but sins can cause God to refuse to listen to you or be enquired of by you.
4 Wilt thou judge them, son of man, wilt thou judge them? cause them to know the abominations of their fathers: 5 And say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; In the day when I chose Israel, and lifted up mine hand unto the seed of the house of Jacob, and made myself known unto them in the land of Egypt, when I lifted up mine hand unto them, saying, I am the Lord your God; 6 In the day that I lifted up mine hand unto them, to bring them forth of the land of Egypt into a land that I had espied for them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands: 7 Then said I unto them, Cast ye away every man the abominations of his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt: I am the Lord your God. 8 But they rebelled against me, and would not hearken unto me: they did not every man cast away the abominations of their eyes, neither did they forsake the idols of Egypt: then I said, I will pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the midst of the land of Egypt.
Quite simple, do you want God to be your God, do you want Him to hear your cry and answer you? Get rid of the abominations of your eyes and forsake the idols of Egypt. Give yourself wholly to the Lord. What is the apostasy? It is rebellion. What is it when people argue that some words of the Bible are out of date? It is rebellion. What are the idols of Egypt? These are the idols of the world.
9 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, among whom they were, in whose sight I made myself known unto them, in bringing them forth out of the land of Egypt. 10 Wherefore I caused them to go forth out of the land of Egypt, and brought them into the wilderness. 11 And I gave them my statutes, and shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them. 12 Moreover also I gave them my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them.
We have the word of God, we have the mighty things God has done, we have His Spirit and still God’s people rebelled. We have been given statutes like the Lord's table and Baptism. Every time you take the Lord's table you renew that covenant that you have with the Lord Jesus, it is like the children of Israel eating the Passover feast, that covenant covers and protects your house from the death angel. Baptism indicates that you are immersed into the Triune God, separated from the world. That is a state that we should remain in. Every day you should be immersed into the word of God, prayer, worship and fellowship with other believers. If you forsake that and go and eat and drink with the drunken and begin to beat your fellow servants then you are no longer immersed.
13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they walked not in my statutes, and they despised my judgments, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; and my sabbaths they greatly polluted: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them in the wilderness, to consume them.
This reminds me of Hebrews where God swore that they should not enter into His sabbath rest. Remember, "I have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer I that live but Christ that lives in me". Every day you have to feed your spirit and starve your flesh so that your spirit is stronger than the flesh and when the spirit says "don't" you have the strength to obey.
14 But I wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted before the heathen, in whose sight I brought them out. 15 Yet also I lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would not bring them into the land which I had given them, flowing with milk and honey, which is the glory of all lands; 16 Because they despised my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, but polluted my sabbaths: for their heart went after their idols. 17 Nevertheless mine eye spared them from destroying them, neither did I make an end of them in the wilderness.
This reminds me of the old “it’s one, two, three strikes your out in the old ball game”. While in Egypt it was strike one, in the wilderness it was strike two. The apostasy is composed of those who despise the Lord's judgments and who do not walk in His statutes. They pollute the Lord's day by running after their idols. I have heard of "Christians" telling the pastor to make the message brief because they have to go to some "big game".
18 But I said unto their children in the wilderness, Walk ye not in the statutes of your fathers, neither observe their judgments, nor defile yourselves with their idols: 19 I am the Lord your God; walk in my statutes, and keep my judgments, and do them; 20 And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the Lord your God. 21 Notwithstanding the children rebelled against me: they walked not in my statutes, neither kept my judgments to do them, which if a man do, he shall even live in them; they polluted my sabbaths: then I said, I would pour out my fury upon them, to accomplish my anger against them in the wilderness. 22 Nevertheless I withdrew mine hand, and wrought for my name's sake, that it should not be polluted in the sight of the heathen, in whose sight I brought them forth.
The Lord became furious, you can see with each offense His anger increased yet He withheld His hand so that His name would be hallowed. As Moses said, if He had released His fury the heathen would have said it is because He was unable to bring them into the land. What you need to realize is that yes, God may not be working with you, He may have withdrawn His hand, but that doesn't mean He isn't working with others. Your sins, your rebellion and your abominations have separated you from God.
23 I lifted up mine hand unto them also in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the heathen, and disperse them through the countries; 24 Because they had not executed my judgments, but had despised my statutes, and had polluted my sabbaths, and their eyes were after their fathers' idols. 25 Wherefore I gave them also statutes that were not good, and judgments whereby they should not live; 26 And I polluted them in their own gifts, in that they caused to pass through the fire all that openeth the womb, that I might make them desolate, to the end that they might know that I am the Lord.
Wow, bet you didn’t see that coming. If you get the Lord angry enough He will allow us to be led astray, we will get statutes that are not good, like Roe v Wade. You’ll get judgements that will make it hard for you to live like opening the border, mandating the vaccine, etc. The purpose of all this is to make us desolate because when we have come to the end of our rope only then will we know that Jesus is Lord. I have heard "christians" say that "that word in the Bible no longer applies". They treat the word of God like an old manuscript that is no longer relevant to human life. Well, when you are desolate and come to nothing then you will realize, oops, I guess that word still is relevant.
27 Therefore, son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord God; Yet in this your fathers have blasphemed me, in that they have committed a trespass against me. 28 For when I had brought them into the land, for the which I lifted up mine hand to give it to them, then they saw every high hill, and all the thick trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and there they presented the provocation of their offering: there also they made their sweet savour, and poured out there their drink offerings. 29 Then I said unto them, What is the high place whereunto ye go? And the name whereof is called Bamah unto this day.
That is right, same Bamah as Barak O Bamah. The name Barak means lightning and Bamah means high place. Barak O’Bama means lightning falling from a high place, just like the verse in the gospels. So many Christians blaspheming the Lord, justifying abortion, justifying the profane and vile laws. In the apostasy they don’t do what they ought to do and they have done what they ought not to have done.
Every child is indoctrinated to go to "the high places". Do you like to play basketball with your friends? Well, the NBA is the "high place". A job that pays 250k a year is a "high place". A house in a very wealthy neighborhood is "a high place". Season tickets at the 50 yard line is "a high place".
If you are serious about being a person who is effective in prayer, someone that the Lord will be enquired of, then you must be serious about being sanctified, separated from the world and immersed into the triune God, abiding in Him.
First Venezuela, then Iran. Is China next?
This gives a different perspective on the seven year tribulation. Satan and his angels are losing, they are being tossed out of the positions of power, tossed out of the heavens. As a result they realize their time is short and so the death and destruction is because they will burn everything to the ground rather than let the Lord take over.
King David left Jerusalem when Absalom (a type of the AntiChrist) rebelled because he didn't want the city and innocent people killed. When David reigned in Hebron it indicated that King Saul (another type of the Antichrist) was losing his grip on control of Israel.
My understanding is that there is a great revival going on in Russia, in China and in Iran among Christians. This is what is causing the "ground to shake" for the rulers. This is why they are going to war. The sins of these despots are coming to light, they are being revealed, and that is what is fueling the populist revolt.
Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. 12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. 13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

Three horns, plucked up by the roots
Daniel 7:8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
The little horn refers to the Antichrist. Therefore these three horns that are plucked up by the roots are bigger powers than the power of the Antichrist when he comes to power.
Right now we have China being plucked up by their roots. The tariffs are causing great civil strife in the country, Trump seizing control of Venezuela and cutting off the drug smuggling and oil exports are also going to cause China to be plucked up by their roots. China is threatening to invade Taiwan and accordingly Taiwan will cause great chaos within China as a countermeasure.
Second, Russia is also being plucked up by its roots. This war with Ukraine has caused a great loss of life and treasure. Iran falling will be a major blow to Russia. Syria falling was a major blow. Without Iran and Syria Hezbollah and Yemen are also cut off. Russia had hoped to replace the US as the policeman in the Middle East. That is not going to happen and without that this war will be a total loss for Russia.
Third, the US is also being plucked up by its roots. The US debt is at a critical level. Yes, if 100% of the world's countries used the US dollar as the reserver currency and if there was no trade friction the debt would still be serviceable. But 40% of the world has not just stopped using the US dollar but is dumping their debt. The amount of debt that needs to be renewed this year has grown from $2 trillion to $9 trillion at a time when only 60% of the world still uses US debt and also at a time when other countries are also dumping US debt, competing with this $9 trillion the US has to raise. This isn't theoretical the rise in price of gold and silver relative to the US dollar is proof of the collapse. In just the last month Silver is up almost 40%. That is a collapse.
The Antichrist will be located in Europe. Best guess at this time is Emmanuel Macron. Yes, King Charles heraldry is referred to in the book of Revelation, but I think that Heraldry says that King Charles serves the Antichrist, not that he is the Antichrist. But we will see. It can't be long now. I know that some hold that MBS is the Antichrist and others that Barak O'Bama is. I would argue that all of these people are key players in the Antichrist kingdom.

Forget about Ananias and Sapphira, what about you?
Acts 5:1 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,
This was 2,000 years ago. Unless this applies to us today, who cares? The only thing I care about is how does this apply to us?
2 And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.
We have to compare this story in Acts with the Lord talking about a man who found a pearl of great worth, he then goes and pays all to buy the field and get that pearl. There are Christians like Barnabas who have sold all, and then there are those like Ananias and Sapphira who pretend to be sold out. This is a decent ratio as well, two thirds are pretending, and one third is sold out.
3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
If you are not sold out be honest about it. Look at what Peter says, he lied to the Holy Spirit. If you are not sold out then tell the Holy Spirit that, be honest, don't lie.
4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.
This is consecration. If my car is consecrated to the Lord then He has complete authority to tell me what to do with it. But if it is not consecrated to the Lord then when the Lord asks you to drive somewhere you might say no. Either one is fine, but to pretend it is consecrated when it isn't, that is a lie. If the car is consecrated to the Lord whatever happens to it happens to the Lord's car. If it isn't consecrated then don't look to the Lord to deal with any damage. No one asks me to fix their car, why would the Lord be any different. But most Christians want their cake and they want to eat it too. They want the Lord to watch over and protect their car but they don't want to be bothered when the Lord asks them to do something with the car. Either the car is consecrated to the Lord or it isn't, don't try to have it both ways.
5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
And by "car" we need to refer to our entire life. If the Lord asks you to leave your job, sell your house, move, all of these things need to consecrated to the Lord so that when He gives the command you act. Do you want the Lord to hear your prayers and act when you ask? Well that works both ways. You want the Lord to belong to you well then you must belong to the Lord.

Prayer = Access to the Father
Ephesians 2:14 For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, 15 by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace,
When you read the Old Testament you get the impression that it is us versus them. Jews versus Gentiles, circumcision versus uncircumcised. But God’s purpose was to create in himself, in Christ, one new man out of the two. He did this by becoming our peace offering. Jesus was the lamb of God, and His death was a peace offering to God. Prior to that offering there were a lot of things that separated the Gentiles from God’s covenant, a dividing wall of hostility. However, after the Son’s sacrifice God had no choice, the Lord’s sacrifice was according to the law with its command and regulations. So that barrier that had divided us was destroyed. But, only if you are in Christ. Now, if you are in Christ you have access to the Father.
16 and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.
That’s right, both of them. Both Jews and Gentiles needed to be reconciled. The cross of Christ was God’s judgement on man’s flesh and only one man made it through that judgement, Jesus Christ. If you are in Him you make it through, if not you don’t. The Day of the Lord will reveal who exactly is in Him.
17 He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. 18 For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
This is huge. Do you want to have powerful and prevailing prayer? You need access to the Father. Do you know Jesus as the one with the key of David? That means you have access to the Father. The martyrs who we see when the 5th seal is opened, they have access to the Father. What is the point of circumcision if it isn’t a sign that you have access to the father? All religion is simply a pretense unless you have access to the Father.
19 So then ye are no more strangers and sojourners, but ye are fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,
Our access is in two broad categories, as citizens who are praying for the kingdom of God and as family members who are praying for the house of God.
20 being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone; in whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
The term built reminds us of all the altars that were built. The foundation of the apostles and prophets, their revelation, worship and sacrifice to the Lord. This is what we are built on. I remember once I took a test and as I went through the questions I didn’t know a single answer. It was as though the test was on a completely different subject. I got angry, I said to myself I studied for this test so I am going to put down what I studied. So I looked at the questions as opportunities for me to write what I studied. I wound up getting the highest grade in the class on that test. Remember what you are built on. We are standing upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets. The chief cornerstone was the stone that the builders rejected. The church is composed of stones the builders rejected. Not only will God’s incomparable riches be on display but His enemies will be put to an open shame as well, having rejected these stones. God is going to make of us a great nation and He will be glorified in us. The foundation of the apostles and prophets is the revelation of Jesus Christ. A great nation is a nation that God inhabits. It is the nation where God’s glory dwells. It is a nation that is filled with justice and righteousness.

But, only if you are in Christ. Now, if you are in Christ you have access to the Father.
16 and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.
That’s right, both of them. Both Jews and Gentiles needed to be reconciled. The cross of Christ was God’s judgement on man’s flesh and only one man made it through that judgement, Jesus Christ. If you are in Him you make it through, if not you don’t. The Day of the Lord will reveal who exactly is in Him.
17 He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. 18 For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
This is huge. Do you want to have powerful and prevailing prayer? You need access to the Father. Do you know Jesus as the one with the key of David? That means you have access to the Father. The martyrs who we see when the 5th seal is opened, they have access to the Father. What is the point of circumcision if it isn’t a sign that you have access to the father? All religion is simply a pretense unless you have access to the Father.
19 So then ye are no more strangers and sojourners, but ye are fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,
Our access is in two broad categories, as citizens who are praying for the kingdom of God and as family members who are praying for the house of God.
20 being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone; in whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.
The term built reminds us of all the altars that were built. The foundation of the apostles and prophets, their revelation, worship and sacrifice to the Lord. This is what we are built on. I remember once I took a test and as I went through the questions I didn’t know a single answer. It was as though the test was on a completely different subject. I got angry, I said to myself I studied for this test so I am going to put down what I studied. So I looked at the questions as opportunities for me to write what I studied. I wound up getting the highest grade in the class on that test. Remember what you are built on. We are standing upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets. The chief cornerstone was the stone that the builders rejected. The church is composed of stones the builders rejected. Not only will God’s incomparable riches be on display but His enemies will be put to an open shame as well, having rejected these stones. God is going to make of us a great nation and He will be glorified in us. The foundation of the apostles and prophets is the revelation of Jesus Christ. A great nation is a nation that God inhabits. It is the nation where God’s glory dwells. It is a nation that is filled with justice and righteousness.
The times of the nations
Luke 21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
This word is in Luke, not in Matthew or Mark. Luke is the gospel that is written to those who are raptured before the tribulation. So the "times of the Gentiles" or the "times of the nations" refers to the Nations triumphing over the Jews. It occurred to me if the times of the nations refers to a period where they rule and reign it would make sense that it begins on the first day of the year and ends on the last day of the year. In 71 AD, after the destruction of Jerusalem by Titus, on January 14th, the first day of the year on the Julian calendar we had this:
So then how long is the "times" of the Gentiles. Some have likened this to two thousand years. If Jesus was crucified in 32 AD and if the gospel first went to the Gentiles in 33 AD with Cornelius then 2033 would be when the times of the nations comes to an end.
But that doesn't make sense on several reasons. First we don't know the day that Cornelius was saved, nor is there any reason to think that Cornelius being saved is a reference to the "times of the Nations". The verse above is a very clear reference to the nations defeating the Jews in battle so we can directly tie that to Titus and we know they celebrated that victory on the first day of the year in 71 AD. We are told very clearly in the prophecies that two days after leaving the temple the Lord will return and we can directly tie that leaving to Jesus ascension. We know the day He ascended (Shavuot) and we know the year (the year of the crucifixion which best estimates place that in 32 AD). Now if it is two thousand years from 32 AD for Jesus to return in great glory, clearly the "times of the nations" to be victorious over Israel would end at that time. So then I think it must be a different period of time. Jesus said that if someone offends you to forgive them 70x7 times, or 490 times. After the fall of Jerusalem the gospel went out to the four corners of the earth and at the same time the nations had their times of ruling and reigning. If we multiply 490 x 4 = 1960, add that to 71 AD and you get January 13th of 2031.
Now the times of the Gentiles ruling and reigning does not end with the rapture. On the contrary that is when the curtain gets pulled away and the world can see that the Antichrist is the man behind the curtain. We know that three and a half years into the tribulation he sets up the abomination of desolation in the temple's sanctuary, so the times of the nations ruling and reigning is still going on at that time. We know at that time Jews in Israel flee to the mountains, just like the Maccabees. So then if the times of the Gentiles were to end in 2031 it would require that the seven year tribulation begin at least four years earlier and more likely five years. However if it is five years then by the sixth year of the tribulation Antichrist and his armies would be defeated and the seventh year of the tribulation is a sabbath year, a year of rest.
Luke 21:24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
This word is in Luke, not in Matthew or Mark. Luke is the gospel that is written to those who are raptured before the tribulation.

In 71 AD, after the destruction of Jerusalem by Titus, on January 14th, the first day of the year on the Julian calendar we had this:
- Roman Triumph: The Roman general Titus was awarded a triumph in Rome, which he celebrated with his father, Emperor Vespasian, and his brother Domitian. The parade included Jewish prisoners and treasures from the Temple of Jerusalem, such as the Menorah and the Pentateuch. Simon Bar Giora, a leader of the Jewish Zealots, was lashed and strangled in the Roman Forum as part of the ceremony.
So then how long is the "times" of the Gentiles. Some have likened this to two thousand years. If Jesus was crucified in 32 AD and if the gospel first went to the Gentiles in 33 AD with Cornelius then 2033 would be when the times of the nations comes to an end.

Acts 6:1 And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
This word for Multiply is first used in Matthew 24:12 which says that "iniquity shall abound". How is iniquity multiplied? They use movies, TV, radio, and all kinds of entertainment like Las Vegas and the NBA and NFL to cause iniquity, sin, and idolatry to multiply. This is not addition. If you add disciples you will get increase, perhaps a church of 100 will increase to 110. But multiplication is different, if you multiply by 2 the church of 100 becomes 200.
We look at the tribulation and think how terrible it will be, and it will be. However, if the power goes out then that puts an end to movies, TV, radio, and all kinds of entertainment. When people are hungry, and that is what the "daily ministration" was doing for the widows, then that is when the disciples will be multiplied. Many have prophesied that during the tribulation we will see a tremendous revival.
The Mark of the Beast, demanding people worship the Antichrist if they want to buy or sell and executing those who refuse, is a last ditch desperation move by Satan. It is not the move of someone who is winning but of someone who is losing.

Acts 6:2 Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.
Consider this, the first martyr is not one of the twelve who are speaking the word of God. It is one of the guys who is serving tables.
This illustrates why I think the debate over the "greatest football player of all time" is so stupid. There is no single person who would have been anything were it not for the team and the coaches. Emmit Smith said this, he considers Barry Sanders the best running back despite Emmit having all the records. He said 'if Barry had the offensive line that I had then he would have had all the records'. Would Jerry Rice have had as many receptions if Joe Montana and Steve Young weren't the quarterbacks throwing him the ball? As great as Tom Brady was, how good would he have been without his teammates? One Super Bowl was won by the kicker, another was won by a "rookie" defensive secondary. Without those two victories he is 5/10 and that is very different from 7/10. Many would reasonably argue that Montana was better.
Think about Samson. We would all think he was a "superstar" able to kill thousands of Philistines himself. But imagine if on his team he had someone who could have seen through Delilah and warned him about her? Everyone finds some things that are easy to them that are impossible to others. Samson was blind when it comes to deceitful, manipulative women. But to those who can see through them that is easy. Meanwhile fighting thousands of Philistines with nothing but the bones of a dead donkey is impossible for many of us, but for Samson that is easy.
The Body has many members, we need every one of them, and it was of God that the first martyr would be someone serving tables, and not one of the twelve speaking the word of God.

Acts 6:3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business. 4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
This is an excellent example to us. At this time what the church needed desperately was for the 12 to give themselves continually to prayer and the ministry of the word. Yes, there was a need for taking care of the increase among the Grecians, but that need does not supersede the other need. We are often tempted every time there is a need in the church to try and take care of it ourselves, but the reality is the first thing we should do is to pray. Seek the Lord's will and the twelve, after doing that, saw that the Lord's will was for them to focus on prayer and the ministry of the word. Yes, there was a need, but that doesn't mean the twelve need to do everything, find seven more men who can rise up to shoulder the burden.
First and foremost you need someone of honest report, let's not forget Judas, and let's not forget Ananias and Sapphira. Second, they need to be full of the Holy Spirit. When you get into ministry it is essential that you are full of the Holy Spirit, like the tire on a car. If you are flat you will be no use to anyone. And you need someone with wisdom. I have seen many genuine believers who are well meaning, but not wise. Because of that lack of wisdom they take twice as long to do a job as others.
A good example of this is The "shoot" (or curved chute/race) that helps guide cattle humanely to slaughter was significantly designed and popularized by Dr. Temple Grandin, an animal behavior scientist who developed systems based on animal psychology, using curved chutes and solid walls to reduce stress and fear by preventing visual distractions. This made it much more efficient to slaughter cattle and at the same time much more humane. Many of us would not have the wisdom to realize that the chute the cows walk up during the process of being slaughtered could be made in such a way as to make this much less stressful for the cows and thus made the process easier, faster and more efficient.

Acts 6:7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith. 8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
This reminds me of Charlie Kirk. When Charlie started his ministry what group of people was being overlooked in the ministry? It was college students. Now he did great wonders and miracles among college students and at the same time the word of God increased, not just on college campuses but everywhere, particularly on the internet. The number of disciples also multiplied. This blog is a testimony to that. Think of the millions and millions around the globe who go to the internet to get the word of God.
9 Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.
We certainly saw this with Charlie Kirk with his "Prove me wrong" tent that he set up on campus. But the same is true of the internet with Youtube and forums.
10 And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.
Why are the Liberals so full of outrage? It is because they are not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which all these witnesses are speaking.
11 Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.
We have seen this too with Charlie and with others. If they cannot resist the wisdom they lie. They control the legacy media and so they control the message on legacy media and put out a false narrative to slander the witnesses.
12 And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council, 13 And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law: 14 For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us. 15 And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.
We saw this with Charlie Kirk as well. There is a theory, though still unproven, that the reason Charlie was assassinated was because he refused to be a puppet of the largest donors. Most notably he was in the process of reassessing his support for Israel's war in Gaza. Yes, the Old Testament says that "those that bless Abraham will be blessed". That does not mean we must bless a war in Gaza. I think many Christians put the blinders on when it comes to Israel. The Bible never tells us to close our eyes to sin. I don't know enough of the details to make a definitive judgment concerning Gaza, so I will defer to the Lord. It is a Biblical principle to say "time will tell". Abraham had two children, one of faith and one of the bondwoman. When we are told to "bless Abraham" it is a reference to the Father of faith, not to the Father of the flesh.

PROPHECY/DREAM -- SHOCKWAVES Pt. 2
SHOCKWAVES (Part 2)
Haggai 2:6-9 6 For thus saith the LORD of hosts; yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; 7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. 8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. 9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.
SHOCKWAVE 3 - Uncontrolled Government My son, this nation will see an uncontrolled government. The SHOCKWAVE will expose all the corruption that is hidden. Very evil men are in control and are steering the decisions being made. Promises made are promises not kept. The Lord paused, and then I heard him say - WAR! WAR! WAR! Each WAR is for a specific area. The 1st WAR is for all the nations and within nations. Many will fight against their government, using deadly force. The 2nd WAR is for regional wars in various locations around the world. Russia/Ukraine, China/Taiwan, USA/Venezuela/Mexico/Cuba/Columbia, Africa, Israel/Middle East nations (these are a few, I saw more). The 3rd WAR is for World War which will happen with a bright flash. (All I saw was a very bright flash.) There will also be weather wars fought using machines to steer and control the weather. Many floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and fires are caused during this SHOCKWAVE.
SHOCKWAVE 4 - Economic Upheaval My son, the 4th SHOCKWAVE will be an economic collapse of one currency and another rising in its place. (I was shown two large boats on the water, one above and one just below the surface. I saw the boat named USS Eagle sink, and the boat named USS Digital rise up.) I then heard the Lord say, "A loaf of bread for a day's wages." This nation will see famine never seen before. The Dust Bowl will pale in comparison to this SHOCKWAVE. Many in My body have not prepared for this, and many will come home. Disease will run rampant during this time, and many will perish from the rats (I saw they will carry the disease).
SHOCKWAVE 5 - Enemies Inside the Camp My son, I have said many times that the enemy is INSIDE the camp. This SHOCKWAVE will release them to do their destruction. My children - DO NOT think so narrowly as to think of them as only one group (or nationality) of people. MANY have come into this nation to cause extreme violence and death of many people. MANY will have weapons and large explosive devices that will cause much damage, destruction, and chaos. (I saw military-type weapons being used and explosives being planted).
GOOD NEWS My son, tell My children the GOOD NEWS! Again, I was shown the angel who was holding the large vessel pouring the golden liquid out onto the earth after each SHOCKWAVE. It looked like an endless supply as it flowed out onto the earth. I was amazed watching the stream flowing out of the vessel and becoming like a mighty waterfall hitting the ground and then spreading out over all the earth!! It was beautiful beyond any words, and truly an awesome sight to behold!! I asked, Lord, what is this? He answered, IT IS MY GLORY. (I saw after each SHOCKWAVE, God will pour out His GLORY. Those who seek Him with all their heart will receive His GLORY.) I asked, Lord, what is in the GLORY? He answered, HEALINGS, FORGIVENESS, and MIRACLES. I will pour out MY SPIRIT and GLORY on all who repent and trust in Me. Read My Word for yourselves and receive ALL that I have for you! Brace yourselves, My children. THE GREAT SHAKING HAS BEGUN!! I love you all very much. Amen. Lord Jesus Christ
