Which side shall you choose?

In my time with the Lord this morning, He said these words to me: Son, tell My people that I am a God that is near and not afar off.

Word of the Lord:

Oh, My people, hear Me this day as I come to you in love.  Oh, how I desire for you all to cry out to Me with a repentive heart.  You do not know what is on your horizon.

Oh, dear children, I have cried out to you and sent My prophets to warn you of things to come.  Some of you have heeded My warnings and rent your hearts to Me.  Others have gone on with business as usual.  But I tell you this day, My children, soon and even this year, it will no longer be business as usual.  For I am establishing My kingdom in the earth realm and the powers of darkness cannot withhold My hand from doing this.

I love you all, dear children, and desire for you all to be part of My bride that will be walking the earth in these last days.  But I tell you the truth, many of you will turn away and say that it is too difficult.  For My bride shall be without spot or blemish.  And therefore, I am taking those that will allow Me, through the fires of My purification.  There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth in the world these last days.  But My bride shall ride the heights of the earth with Me above all these things.

Oh, dear children, do not think that because you call yourself by My name that it makes you My bride.  For My bride shall be clothed in white raiment.  And this shall only be done when she has been cleansed of her filth and done MY works of righteousness, not man’s.

I love you all, dear children, and desire for you all to be part of My beautiful bride.  But I tell you the truth, many of you have followed after the false shepherds and prophets that do not speak My truth.  They have filled many of you with vain lies of comfort.  Come out, I say, from the false religious churches and follow Me.  It is not too late for those of you that have followed these lies.  For if you would come out and no longer touch what is unclean, then I will accept you into My fold and give you true shepherds that I am raising up this day.

But for those that choose not to come out of that religious harlot, woe unto you.  For you shall not be raptured out of the earth as many of you say.  And because you chose not to come out of that harlot church system of man, you shall also suffer the many woes to come upon the wicked and disobedient.  For I shall no longer suffer those that are in disobedience to My Spirit, sayeth the Lord.  And I tell you the truth, in that day, many of you will say “But Lord, did we not do all these wonderful works in your name?”  And I will tell you to depart from Me, for I never knew you.  And your part shall be with those where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Oh, My dear little ones, it is not My desire that this woe befalls any of you.  But you must separate yourselves unto Me.  Soon I shall remove My Spirit from all churches of man and then they all shall be filled with evil spirits.

But for those that I call My own, you shall discern this truth that I now speak and come out and follow Me in Spirit and in truth.  And you shall be filled with My Spirit and perform many great miracles and wonders in My name.  But do not think that you shall always be accepted in this.  Yes, many shall come to your light seeking Me.  But there shall also be many, even of the religious, that shall hate you and persecute you.  But weary not at this, for I shall protect My own.

Oh, My people, time for all this draws near.  So seek Me, My children, with all your heart and I shall be found by you.  The lines are being drawn, My children.  Which side shall you choose?

Saul’s mantle is being removed.

This morning in my time with the Lord, He said these words to me:  Son, tell My people that I hear their cries to Me.

Word of the Lord:

Oh, My people, hear Me this day.  I am doing a new thing in the earth that many of you know not of.  I shall reach down from heaven and strike the false shepherds and many shall run and flee.  And many of My sheep will be dumbfounded and think that I have forsaken them.  Not so, My little ones.  For I shall NEVER leave or forsake My children.

But hear Me well.  I am moving across this land to bring down those shepherds who have exalted themselves and not built My church.  Many of the shepherds fatten themselves by fleecing My sheep.  And many of My people love to have it so.  Oh, My dear children, hear My heart crying out to you this day.  Come out!  Come out from among all that is not of Me and follow Me in truth, sayeth the Lord.

I am going to strike the false shepherds and scatter the sheep so that I may bring them close to Me.  For I am raising up true shepherds.  And these shepherds will teach My truth and My love and lead My sheep into true relationship with Me just as I have purposed from the beginning.

Oh, My people, hear Me.  Time for playing church is over.  For I am removing the mantle from Saul and placing it upon my servant, King David.  This is a spiritual truth, My loved ones.  Those who do not know Me, do not know the truth of My word.  Therefore, I speak in parables.  But for those who know and understand what I speak in this parable, get ready for your hearts to be thrilled.  For the time of My kingdom has come.  And those who have a love for My truth shall be shown the way into My kingdom.  But for those who I call imposters and do not have a love for My truth, get ready to be confounded.   For Saul shall be taken down from his throne, but not before he shall be filled with a defiling and tormenting spirit.

Oh My little ones.  Did you think that the stories in my written word are merely stories?  They are spiritual truths, I tell you.  And so now I tell you that all the Sauls who do not willingly step down from the throne shall be filled with defiling spirits.  And those who follow them shall be filled as well.

But for My king Davids, get ready to be exalted into kingship and do My bidding.  But do not think this will happen without being persecuted by My Sauls.  For even though I may have anointed them for a time and season, they are now in disobedience to Me.

Oh, My little ones, do you not understand these words of Mine?  I love you all and it is My greatest desire to give you My kingdom.  But My kingdom shall only be for those who have a love for My truth.  Therefore, I speak in parables that only those with ears to hear may understand.

I love you all, My dear children.  But now is the time and season for My house to be raised up and My kingdom to be established.  Get ready, My little ones.  And seek Me diligently that you may be found worthy.  For all the Sauls and all that offends shall be cast out of My kingdom, sayeth the Lord.

2013, a year of Fire and Glory.

Greetings dear Saints,

Last night I was speaking with my pastor and friend about what all is coming this year.  We both agree that God’s glory will be seen in His people, but not without going through the fires of afflictions that many will not endure.  Many will fall away because they follow the false compromising gospels of ease and comfort and have not gone through any of God’s refining fires.

When meditating on this, my heart weighed heavily for all those that will fall away.  Therefore, I asked the Lord if He had a word of encouragement for His people so that they may be strengthened for what is coming.

This is what the Lord said to me:  Son, tell My people that I am near and not a God that is afar off.

Word of the Lord:

Oh, My people, hear Me this day.  You are about to embark on a journey with your Heavenly Father in this coming year and hence forth.  For now is the day, time and season, sayeth the Lord, that I shall begin to equip My last day army.  Those that have chosen Me and My ways shall now go through My refiner’s fire.  I shall bring many woes upon the land through My judgments and it shall begin with My house.  I am doing this for the purpose of raising My army for the last day harvest.

Oh, My people, how I desire that you do not shrink back from My refining fires.  For there will be times that you will think that I have abandoned you.  But do not allow your thoughts to think this.  For I shall NEVER leave nor forsake My children.  It is only My children that have the choice to leave or forsake Me.  For I will not go where many of My children go when they are rebellious to My word.

Oh, My dear children, hear My heart crying out to you all this day.  I am about to do a wonder in My people this year.  But I tell you, many will not endure My chastisement and refining fires.  For the churches of man and false shepherds have lied to My people and have not prepared them for My coming.  It is taught in many churches and groups that I will gather My children in a pre-trib rapture and they will not have to endure the coming tribulation that shall try those upon the earth.  Lies, I tell you, all lies.  For what master builder builds a house with brick that has not been fired or tested for strength?  You have been lied to My little ones.  Do you not know that I shall only dwell in a house made without the hands of man?  Therefore, know this, My little ones:  I shall have a house built by My Spirit.  And these lively stones shall be tested, strengthened and refined that I may dwell in a house that shall surely stand in any storm.  Your doctrines of ease and escape from trials do not test or purify My stones for My house.  How do you not see the foolishness in these teachings?

My children, I tell you all this that you may stand in the coming days when I take My children through the refining fires.  For those that will have ears to hear, get ready.  And for those that refuse My fires, prepare for severe judgments.  For did I not say in My word that this day shall test all man’s work to see if it will stand?  Then why do many of you still believe that you can choose your own interpretations of My word so long as you have a love for Me?  Well I tell you a truth; you do not have a love for Me if you do not have a love for the truth of My word.  For I AM the Word that many of you have chosen to reject because it does not fit into your doctrines.

Oh, My children, hear Me this day.  I am about to take My house through a severe shaking.  And I ask you now, who can endure this day of My coming as a refiner’s fire and a fuller’s soap?  For I shall cleanse My house from all that defiles and many, I say MANY will not endure this cleansing.

But for those that I call My own, those that have a love for the truth of My word, get ready.  For I shall do a work in you like never known before.  For truly I have given a sign for these days through My servants Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.  For as they did not bow to the king’s god, you too, My beloved, do not bow to the gods of this world.  And so as they were thrown into the furnace of fire for their obedience to Me, so shall you, My beloved, be thrown into the furnace of afflictions.  And just as they did not burn, but only the ropes that bound them; so shall you not burn, but all that binds you shall be burned up.  And just as I was in the midst with them in the fire, so shall I be in the midst with you, My beloved ones.

Oh, My dear children, how I weep for those of you that shall fall away and not endure the fires of My cleansing.  For many of you have rejected the truth of My word and followed after lies that tell you that I suffered it all so that you do not have to.  Lies, My children, all lies.  For did I not say in My word that the servant is not greater than the Master?  And did I not say that only those that suffer with Me shall reign with Me?  Then why do many of you still hold to the lies that I shall rapture you out of the world and you shall not have to endure to the end, as I have promised salvation for those that do?  Oh, My little ones, can you not discern the error of your ways?  Many of you sit in the churches and give your hard-earned money to those that feed you lies.  Oh, My children, wake up…..

But I tell you now, the days coming shall cause all My own to wake up and come out from the lies and follow hard after Me.  And those that are not truly Mine, even though they say they are, shall fall by the wayside and burn as I have said in My word ( Matt. 13:21, Heb. 6:8).

I love you all, My dear children, and do not desire that any of you fall away.  Therefore, I come to you this day and declare to you to lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees, and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.  And prepare for the refining fires of My judgments.  For I love you, dear children, and I am excited for the day that My true bride shall come forth out of the cleansing fires without spot or blemish.

Therefore, My children, prepare for the fires of affliction that shall burn off all that is not of Me.  Stand strong, My little ones, and do not shrink back.  For I will not take pleasure in any that will shrink back, and those that do, shall not be part of My bride that shall sweep across the land with Me in conquering My enemies.  Therefore, prepare, My little ones.  Again, I say, prepare and do not shrink back.  And soon the glory that shall be revealed in you shall not compare to the seemingly light affliction it took for you to gain this glory.

I love you all, My dear children, and come to you this day to encourage and exhort you to stand strong.  But for those that refuse these words of Mine; get ready, for you too shall go through afflictions, though of a different kind…..

 

1 Corinthians 3:12-13  Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;  Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is.

Malachi 3:2-3  But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap:   And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the LORD an offering in righteousness.

Ezekiel 13:10-14  Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter (false teachings):  Say unto them which daub it with untempered morter, that it shall fall (false teachings shall not stand): there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it.   Lo, when the wall (refuge in false beliefs) is fallen, shall it not be said unto you, Where is the daubing wherewith ye have daubed it?  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even rend it with a stormy wind in my fury; and there shall be an overflowing shower in mine anger, and great hailstones in my fury to consume it .   So will I break down the wall that ye have daubed with untempered morter, and bring it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be discovered (the lies and false doctrines will be exposed as what they really are), and it shall fall, and ye shall be consumed in the midst thereof: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
