the days of amos

Picture
The other day
I told my Christian friends
that the world was cursed
instead of blessed,
and they looked at me
like I had three heads.

I suppose
I would react like them
if the Lord wasn’t pressing on me
to declare
1.  Repentance and
2. Judgment is Coming

So many people
think they are blessed
when the truth is
they are really cursed.

How can you possibly
understand God’s mercy
if you have no idea
about Bible Prophecy,
or the Seed of Adam.

Everyone who screams
“I am blessed, look at me”
is really a foreigner to me.
What a prideful thing to believe.
That you are so blessed,
and God only stands for you.

How can you scream "I am so blessed," 
when the world is dying around you.
Where is your humility?

If you think God’s Word
will stand on selfish pride,
then you have another thing coming.

There is nothing in God’s Word,
that says that selfish pride is good.
Yes, you can raise his banner high,
and you can declare victory
in the name of Christ.
You can say just about anything you want,
but God know the intent of your heart.

If you don’t know his Holiness,
If you don’t hold Him In reverence,
if you don’t understand His mercy,
then how can you truly say
that you have a personal relationship with Him?

Your claim to grace
will not hold up in court,
if you have not laid down
your life for Him.

Let me speak the truth in love -
Everyone can come to the table!
Everyone can eat the bread of life
and everyone can wash it down
with His wine,
but if you come as a guest
filled with prideful intent,
then none of his substance
will stick to your bones,
and His body will go right through you.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

“Blessed are those who mourn,
for they shall be comforted.

“Blessed are the meek,
for they shall inherit the earth.

“Blessed are those who hunger
and thirst for righteousness,
for they shall be satisfied.

 “Blessed are the merciful,
for they shall receive mercy.

“Blessed are the pure in heart,
for they shall see God.

“Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they shall be called sons of God.

 “Blessed are those who are persecuted
for righteousness' sake,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

“Blessed are you when others revile you
and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil
against you falsely on my account"
Matthew 5:2-11



Deceit is accelerating
in the streets,
while humanity is decaying
on the sidewalks.

Lust and greed
and power and control
are running rampantly
in the global world,
and people are dying,
by the thousands,
without even knowing God’s Word.

Believe me,
I wish I had something else to say,
like living the blessing
instead of enduring the curse.

But the world is spinning the opposite way,
and people are consuming false testimony.

We have internalized the Word of God
from a twisted perspective of self.
We think it’s all about us, instead of Him.

We have become fattened cows
taking advantage of the choices we have.

Instead of being humble servants
who disciple men,
we flaunt “God is good” in people’s face
and leave them alone to figure it out.

How many say,
“God is Good”
only when it's going their way?
And we only seem to pray
when something goes wrong.

In fact just the other day,
someone saw on Facebook
that I was praying over a region,
and she said, "What is wrong?"
I said, "Nothing.  I just sense the Lord
leading me to pray over this location."

Our hearts are deceived
if we believe
that we will All go to Heaven
when we don’t know God.

And we don’t know God,
unless we pursue
a personal relationship with Him.
So we must all stop, and repent
for these are the Days of Amos,
and God’s judgment is coming.

You don’t have to believe
anything that I say,
but I am still going to say it anyway.

The Lord is wringing out his remnant
for one drop of his blood
covers a multitude of sin.

His message has not changed -
Not once since the day
I first received it
on May 24, 2019
while desperately crying in the shower.

In fact, the wringing
is becoming even more pressing,
and I can see the remnant shrinking
from ten to one.

I interrupt the Good News
shared in the Book of Luke
to remind you that
Judgment Day is coming.

You can accept my grace
and say that you are blessed,
but the truth is
if you don’t know who I am
then you are nothing to me,
but a false witness.

Your testimony will not stand,
in the courtroom of Heaven,
because you are nothing
but a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

If you think you can have my grace,
without understanding my mercy,
then you really do not know who I am.

How can you possibly
be a servant to me,
when it’s all about you,
and not about Me?

I have taken this prideful woman
and I have been wringing her out.

She is a now a humble servant
who knows who her master is.
And I have anointed her
to stand in my wall
and shout out,
“ Rest and Repent.”
“Judgement is coming!”

Rest and Repentance
is coming to a close,
get ready for the horses hooves.
A stampede is coming your way,
and they will trample anyone
who stands in their way.

The Days of Amos are upon you.
Go now,
and read the words
of the the man who lived among you.
He was just a man, a quiet shepherd
who carried my voice,
just like this woman does.

You can choose not to believe her,
and you can choose to condemn her,
But that will NOT change
what I have commanded her to say.

These are the Days of Amos!
Now Go and read them for yourself.
And get ready, because MY WORD is coming!
