GET READY FOR THE LION OF JUDAH TO ROAR


I received a progressive Word. I saw a long valley, miles long filled with watchman warming themselves over their fires at night. They were doing nothing except waiting upon the Lord. Their faces were glowing and hands were warmed. I felt that the fires were His fire of comfort for being in a dark and cold place.



Then I heard the Lord tell me they stood in unity, shoulder to shoulder. It was light now and they were all facing down the valley in one direction and just standing there waiting on the Lord. I heard the Lord say, “Get ready, it’s coming. My roar.” And then the following occurred simultaneously at the same time.



The Lion of Judah stood at the end of the valley and He was filled with a roaring hunger to take the prey and devour the works of darkness. At the same time that He felt this and roared, He filled the waiting ranks of watchmen with the same appetite and their roar to devour the works of darkness and their roar filled and flooded the valley. They had no idea how hungry they were for this, until the Lion filled them with the same appetite that He was feeling. The reverberations of the roar in the valley was very impacting to my spirit.



CONFIRMATIONS FIRE: There were 3 other people who had visions related to fires tonight during prayer. As it is our custom, we dont share what we see or hear until after prayer and silence in waiting on the Lord. One saw flint and steel in order to start a fire. One saw coals that the Lord blew upon to bring it to flame, and another saw the stirring of fire to kindle it.



CONFIRMATIONS VALLEY: There were 2 other valley visions during prayer tonight. One saw foot soldiers taking a valley. Another saw a dark valley and then it was swept with a light wave.



WORD TO PONDER: GATHERED AND HUNGRY TO DEVOUR THE WORKS OF DARKNESS 2/03/07



I AM gathering my watchman and foot soldiers into a valley of unity. Even when in the midst of dark and cold nights, I have kept them warm by their watch fires. They have waited upon Me in the night season and waited for My Word. Soon the day breaks and My call is upon them to stand as one army, shoulder to shoulder, pressed together to fill the gaps. Facing one direction and ready, they wait for My call.



I come as the Lion of Judah, enflamed with hunger to devour the prey, the works of darkness. As I roar, I too fill My people with My appetite and they also roar as they are ready to overcome the prey and devour the works of darkness. Our roar fills the valley and it reverberates with My power.





Isa 5:26-30 NKJV

He will lift up a banner to the nations from afar, and will whistle to them from the end of the earth; Surely they shall come with speed, swiftly. No one will be weary or stumble among them, no one will slumber or sleep; Nor will the belt on their loins be loosed, nor the strap of their sandals be broken; Whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent; Their horses' hooves will seem like flint, and their wheels like a whirlwind. Their roaring will be like a lion, they will roar like young lions; Yes, they will roar And lay hold of the prey ;They will carry it away safely, and no one will deliver. In that day they will roar against them Like the roaring of the sea. And if one looks to the land, behold, darkness and sorrow; and the light is darkened by the clouds.



Isa 31:4-5 NKJV

For thus the LORD has spoken to me: "As a lion roars, and a young lion over his prey (When a multitude of shepherds is summoned against him, He will not be afraid of their voice nor be disturbed by their noise), So the LORD of hosts will come down to fight for Mount Zion and for its hill. Like birds flying about, So will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem. Defending, He will also deliver it; passing over, He will preserve it."



Ps 104:19-22 NKJV

He appointed the moon for seasons; The sun knows its going down. You make darkness, and it is night, In which all the beasts of the forest creep about. The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God. When the sun rises, they gather together and lie down in their dens.



A friend shared this scripture with me from the King James version that Jesus literally roared when He was on the cross. She said, when Jesus let out the loud cry from the cross, it was a roar. The centurions marveled at it because no one hanging on a cross had the strength to roar like that. It was because of it that the centurion said, "Surely this was the Son of God."



Ps 22:1 KJV

My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my ROARING?



2 O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them.5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head saying,8 He trusted on the LORD that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.9 But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts.10 I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly.11 Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help.12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.17 I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.18 They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me.20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.22 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise thee.23 Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.25 My praise shall be of thee in the great congregation: I will pay my vows before them that fear him.26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied: they shall praise the LORD that seek him: your heart shall live for ever.27 All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the LORD: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee.28 For the kingdom is the LORD's: and he is the governor among the nations.29 All they that be fat upon earth shall eat and worship: all they that go down to the dust shall bow before him: and none can keep alive his own soul.30 A seed shall serve him; it shall be accounted to the Lord for a generation.31 They shall come, and shall declare his righteousness unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done this.



Matthew Henry’s Commentary about Mark 15:39

V1. The centurion who commanded the detachment which had the oversight of the execution was convinced, and confessed that this Jesus was the Son of God, v. 39. One thing that satisfied him, was, that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost: that one who was ready to give up the ghost, should be able to cry out so, was very surprising. Of all the sad spectacles of this kind he never observed the like; and that one who had strength to cry so loud, should yet immediately give up the ghost, this also made him wonder; and he said, to the honour of Christ, and the shame of those that abused him, Truly this man was the Son of God. But what reason had he to say so?

Yea though l walk through the valley of the shadow of death...

I will fear no evil.... for though art with me.



Between Jericho and Jerusalem is an old Roman road.
It leads through the Valley of the Shadow of Death.
This Valley is near Jerusalem.

I wait.

I am crushed with the violence, the murders, the death that is everywhere in this fallen world.

Inside, I scream for the righteousness of Jesus Christ to be seen in the Earth.

I cringe as his name is blasphemed by the lost, yet I cry in desperation for God to pour his salvation mercy upon them.

Like the disciples in Gethsemane, the church sleeps. May the Lord awaken her.

May the Almighty God answer the prayer of his Son, "Your will be done, on Earth, as it is in Heaven."

Let all the Earth praise the Lord!

I wait.

Thread -- More on Israeli's Dream of the Messiah

Lion of Judah



He stands tall with muscle strong and firm
Who can stand again him? Yet in his eyes
there compassion and love. He comes with
authority and justice. He walks with power.
He is voracious yet as gentle as a lamb.
He love beyond his fearsome look.
For it he who laid his life down so that I
might have everlasting life. He took my place
on the tree so my sin would be wash
away. It was his blood that sign my freedom.
He took me from a prison I didn’t know I was
in and set me free. And as they whips him with the
whip he took them for my sickness and set me free
from all infirmity. And when they place the crown
of torn upon his head it was to give me a sound mind
and to cleanses it of all impure thought.And when
he lay down upon the tree .He lay down for you and
me. And as the nails were hammer in his hand not one cry
did he make for you and I.He laid quietly .For it was
our pain that he carry on that day. As the nails went
in his feet’s it was so that we would walk the path of
rightness. As the nail went into his hands it was to prepare
us for victory in the battle we would fight in our prayer
Let’s forget the gall he was given to drink so bitter was
it taste.Oh for he knew that life would be bitter. And
when they pierce his side and he gush out blood and water
it was the release for our bondage that pour out on that day.
He was lay in tomb and for 3 day you know satan thought he
had the victory. Don’t you know on the 3rd he must of tremble.
For he who was beaten and torn. Took away the keys from his very
hands. Now don’t you know he now had no power.
For he who was beaten and torn rose from the grave.
Full of Glory And Power. No more were we held in
bondage.
But free. Free indeed for was he who fought the battle on
that day.
The Lion of Judah who triumphed on that day

Hear Me Roar

Jeff Fraley





Open Vision...As embers burn in a fire...A call goes out. From the fire the embers rise in subtle formation, spiraling upwards, to a central place in the Heavens. I draw closer to the embers and see each ember is a sparkling Jewel, bathed in Holy Fire. They are beautiful!... Shimmering and dancing with the fire. And His voice spoke, "It Is Time."...End of Vision.



"Hear My Words, Oh Ye People...Come to Bethlehem! Come see the wondrous gift I gave mankind...SALVATION...His Name is "Jesus". Come see this wondrous gift. Those who come just bring your heart. Give the greatest gift you can give... yourself. Come gather around. Hear His voice. All who come shall find safety. FEAR NOT! For I am The Lord God, Jehovah."



HEAR ME ROAR!



"Oh! sons of Adam and daughters of Eve. What have you done to my precious creation? I gave you the EARTH which is part of My HEART. You have trampled it down with greed, arrogance and ignorance. Hear Me Roar!....It is time to reap what you have sown and bitter will it taste. Many will cry out ...Why, God, Why? And My answer shall be... I have called and called. And shed rivers of tears over you...but still you did not come to Me. To busy...running to and fro. The devil dances his joyful glee looking at the souls he reaps.



Through lying and cheating one another... no compassion is found. Even now the rich are pushing out souls from a sinking boat hoping only to save their own souls. They are more lost then most. A season of giving? To whom? A season of joy and laughter? With who? Families so broken and sad. For them, Christmas is a burden. Lost in buying, when the best gift to give is your time. Time is about up for the people who judge. With Me, there is no time....Just eternity in my presence. This past year was a year of ENOUGHS!...I stand and say ENOUGH! Those who are mine, I will draw closer now. And in time I will send them out into the streets and byways. And to the little forgotten churches. Great spiritual moves will come through My precious jewels.



They are acquainted with grief, sorrow and at times despair...even loss of family. Some placed in jail. Some have given up all possessions . Why? Because they love Me above all else and chose to endure the test of time. Hear the words of My Hidden Ones. For they shall not be hidden any longer. They will carry Mercy....Grace....Judgment...and Justice...and be clothed in Righteousness."



They are My Children!

So ends the words of the Lord Most High...Amen

Isaiah 26 - Judah’s Kingdom of God Song


A. The city of God and the city of Man.



1. (1-2) The strength of God’s city.



In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: “We have a strong city; God will appoint salvation for walls and bulwarks. Open the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter in.”



a. In that day: The context from Isaiah 24 and 25 points to the day of the Messiah’s ultimate triumph, the day when the Messiah reigns over Israel, and over all the world. In that day, there will be a lot of joyful singing, such as this song that will be sung in the land of Judah.



b. We have a strong city: Since cities came into being after the Fall, man has never known a truly godly city, the City of God on earth. In that day, all will know the strength and glory of the city of God.



i. In the fifth century, Rome was conquered by less civilized tribes from the north in Europe. The mighty Roman Empire was no more, and many blamed the fall of Rome on the new religion she had officially embraced in the last 100 years: Christianity. In this time of confusion, the greatest Christian theologian of the time wrote a book titled The City of God. In it, he tried to explain how the fall of the Roman Empire related to the kingdom of God, and he made the contrast between the city of man (ultimately represented by Rome and the mighty Roman Empire) and the City of God (the kingdom of God). Augustine pointed out that though the fall of Rome was tragic for the city of man, it really only hastened the coming of the City of God. Speaking in Augustine’s terms, Isaiah writes about the City of God when he says we have a strong city. The strong city is the Kingdom of God, the city of man is the world system.



ii. This is an important and often neglected idea. We often disapprove of the idea of the city, and romanticize the idea of man in isolation, in a rural or primitive setting. But in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ on this earth, there will be cities - but redeemed cities, glorious communities organized under the strength and salvation and righteousness and truth of the Lord. God’s supreme ideal is no escape from all community and a private communion with nature; the Kingdom of God will be realized in a strong city.



c. God will appoint salvation for walls and bulwarks: The city of God, from beginning to end, is all about salvation. Even the walls and the bulwarks of the city are saved!



d. Open the gates, that the righteous nation which keeps the truth may enter it: The city of God, with all its strength and salvation, is only for the righteous, and those who keep the truth. In the same principle, the New Jerusalem is a city filled with glory, which excludes the unrighteous (Revelation 21:22-27).



i. We should make a distinction between the Kingdom of the Messiah, the millennial reign of Jesus (described here in Isaiah 26), and the coming of the New Jerusalem (which comes when this earth passes away, Revelation 21:1-2). The cities are similar, because they are both from the Lord, but they come at different times in God’s plan of the ages.



2. (3-4) The Lord is our source of strength.



You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. Trust in the Lord forever, for in Yah, the Lord, is everlasting strength.



a. You will keep him in perfect peace: What a promise! Perfect peace! God promises that we can have perfect peace, and even be kept in a place of perfect peace.



i. In Hebrew, the term perfect peace is actually shalom shalom. This shows how in Hebrew, repetition communicates intensity. It isn’t just shalom; it is shalom shalom, perfect peace.



ii. “Understand, dear soul, that it is thy privilege to live inside the double doors of God’s loving care. He says to thee, ‘Peace, peace.’ If one assurance is not enough, He will follow it with a second and a third.” (Meyer)



iii. Some can have this perfect peace, but it is fleeting and they are never kept there. Others can be kept in peace, but it is not a perfect peace, it is the peace of the wicked, the peace of spiritual sleep and ultimate destruction. But there is a perfect peace that the Lord will keep is in.



b. Whose mind is stayed on You: This is the place of perfect peace, and the source of it. When we keep our minds stayed - settled upon, established upon - the Lord Himself, then we can be kept in this perfect peace.



i. To be kept in this perfect peace, it is a matter of our mind. This isn’t so much a matter of our spirit or of our soul or of our heart. It is a matter of our mind. We are to love the Lord our God with all of our mind (Matthew 22:37). We are transformed by the renewing of your mind (Romans 12:2). We can have the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16, Philippians 2:5). We are not to set our mind on earthly things (Philippians 3:19), but to set our mind on things above (Colossians 3:2). The Christian life is not an unthinking life of just doing, or experiencing, but it is also about thinking, and where we set our mind is essential in our walk before the Lord.



ii. To be kept in this perfect peace, our mind must be stayed. The Hebrew word sawmak comes from the root “to prop,” and has the idea “to lean upon or take hold of . . . bear up, establish, uphold, lay, lean, lie hard, put, rest self, set self, stand fast, stay (self), sustain.” (Strong’s Dictionary) In other places the same word is translated sustained (Genesis 27:37, Psalm 3:5), or when the priest would put their hands on the head of a sacrificial animal (Exodus 29:10, 15, 19), or of the laying on of hands in other circumstances (Numbers 27:18), of being upheld (Psalm 71:6), to stand fast upon (Psalm 111:, of being established (Psalm 112:, of leaning upon (Isaiah 36:6, 48:2). So, what sustains your mind? What do you lay your mind upon? What upholds your mind? What does your mind stand fast upon? What is your mind established upon? What does your mind lean upon? To have this perfect peace, your mind cannot occasionally come to the Lord; it has to be stayed on Him.



iii. To be kept in this perfect peace, our mind must be stayed on the Lord. If our mind is stayed on ourselves, or our problems, or the problem people in our lives, or on anything else, we can’t have this perfect peace. This is the heart that says with the Apostle Paul, that I may know Him (Philippians 3:10). Satan loves to get our minds on anything except the Lord!



c. Because He trusts in You: This is another way of expressing the idea of keeping our minds stayed on Him. Almost always, you keep your mind stayed on whatever you are trusting. When we trust the Lord, we keep our mind stayed on Him.



i. Proverbs 3:5 expresses this same idea: Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. The word for lean in Proverbs 3:5 comes from the same root as the word stayed in Isaiah 26:3. When we trust in the Lord, we do not lean on our own understanding. To lean on the Lord is to trust Him. To be sustained by the Lord is to trust Him. To be established by the Lord is to trust Him. To upheld by the Lord is to trust Him.



ii. The battle for trust in our lives begins in our minds. If we trust the Lord, it will show in our actions, but it will begin in our mind.



d. Trust in the Lord forever: Because of the promise of Isaiah 26:3, we are exhorted to trust in the Lord forever - and therefore to receive the blessing of the promise, perfect peace!



e. For in Yah, the Lord, is everlasting strength: If the Lord calls us to rely on Him completely with our mind, He appeals to our mind with a rational reason why we should trust the Lord - because He is everlasting strength. It isn’t that the Lord has everlasting strength, He is everlasting strength.



i. Clarke’s comment on Isaiah 12:2 applies here also: “The word Yah read here is probably a mistake; and arose originally from the custom of the Jewish scribes, who, when they found a line too short for the word, wrote as many letters as filled it, and then began the next line with the whole word.”



3. (5-6) The destiny of the city of man.



For He brings down those who dwell on high, the lofty city; He lays it low, He lays it low to the ground, He brings it down to the dust. The foot shall tread it down; the feet of the poor and the steps of the needy.



a. He brings down those who dwell on high, the lofty city: The city of man is lofty, and its exalted ones dwell on high. But the Lord will bring them down nonetheless. The city of man, the world system, is nothing to the Lord; He lays it low.



b. The city of man, the world system, is all about power and prestige, built on the backs of the weak and the poor. But when God brings the city of man down to the dust, He will turn all that around, and the feet of the poor shall tread it down.



i. Jesus expressed the same principle in Matthew 5:5: Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. Jesus told us oppose the power and prestige thinking of this world and to live with the thinking of His Kingdom right now (Matthew 20:25-28).



4. (7-9) The way of the upright.



The way of the just is uprightness; O Most Upright, You weigh the path of the just. Yes, in the way of Your judgments, O Lord, we have waited for You; the desire of our soul is for Your name and for the remembrance of You. With my soul I have desired You in the night, yes, by my spirit within me I will seek You early; for when Your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.



a. The way of the just is uprightness: In the Kingdom of God, His just people walk in a way - the way of uprightness. Isaiah accurately gives the sense of order in this; the Lord makes His people just by a relationship of faith and trust in Him, then they walk in the way of . . . uprightness.



i. Why do they walk in uprightness? Because they serve the Lord God, who is Most Upright Himself. As they trust the Lord, are declared just by the Lord, they walk in His own way.



ii. You weigh the path of the just: The Lord looks at His righteous ones (the just) and He evaluates their path. The Lord cares about the walk of His just ones!



b. The desire of our soul is for Your name: In the Kingdom of God, His just people love Him and desire Him.



i. The desire is displayed in waiting: O Lord, we have waited for You. When you desire something, or someone, you will wait for them, and do it gladly because of your desire.



ii. The desire is displayed in seeking: With my soul I have desired You in the night, yes, by my spirit within me I will seek You early. When you desire something, or someone, you seek them all the time, both early and at night.



c. The way of the upright will be vindicated; one day, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.



5. (10-11) The way of the wicked.



Let grace be shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness he will deal unjustly, and will not behold the majesty of the Lord. Lord, when Your hand is lifted up, they will not see. But they will see and be ashamed for their envy of people; yes, the fire of Your enemies shall devour them.



a. The wicked are ungrateful for God’s goodness: Let grace be shown to the wicked, yet he will not learn righteousness.



b. The wicked end in disaster: And will not behold the majesty of the Lord . . . they will see and be ashamed . . . the fire of Your enemies shall devour them.



B. Promises made to a humble heart.



1. (12-18) The prayer of a humble heart.



Lord, You will establish peace for us, for You have also done all our works in us. O Lord our God, masters besides You have had dominion over us; but by You only we make mention of Your name. They are dead, they will not live; they are deceased, they will not rise. Therefore You have punished and destroyed them, and made all their memory to perish. You have increased the nation, O Lord, You have increased the nation; You are glorified; You have expanded all the borders of the land. Lord, in trouble they have visited You, they poured out a prayer when Your chastening was upon them. As a woman with child is in pain and cries out in her pangs, when she draws near the time of her delivery, so have we been in Your sight, O Lord. We have been with child, we have been in pain; we have, as it were, brought forth wind; we have not accomplished any deliverance in the earth, nor have the inhabitants of the world fallen.



a. You have also done all our works in us: Isaiah must have been reading Ephesians 2:8-10: For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. Even our good works are works that He has done . . . in us.



b. Masters besides You have had dominion over us; but by You only we make mention of Your name: The humble heart repents of past idolatry, and rejoices in the present freedom in the Lord.



i. The humble heart sees the folly of their past idolatry: They are dead, they will not live. The humble heart sees the victory of the Lord over all idols: You have punished and destroyed them. “Obviously this verse does not suggest that the ‘other lords’ had real existence as deities but simply that they were believed to have and that their rule was sinfully acknowledged by the people in past times.” (Grogan)



ii. The Hebrew word for dominion is baal, which can mean master or husband. Of course, Baal was also the chief god of the native Canaanites, and a seductive idol for Israel. In this prayer, Judah essentially says, O Lord our God, masters besides you have “Baal-ed” us.



c. We have been with child, we have been in pain; we have, as it were, brought forth wind: The humble heart knows the futility of working apart from the direction and blessing of God.



i. “We have had the torment of a woman in child-bearing, but not the comfort of a living child . . . for we have brought forth nothing but the wind; all our labours and hopes were vain and unnuccessful.” (Poole)



d. You have increased the nation: The humble heart knows the Lord is responsible for increase and blessing.



e. Lord, in trouble they have visited You: The humble heart relies on the Lord in times of distress and futility.



2. (19) The promise of resurrection.



Your dead shall live; together with my dead body they shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.



a. Your dead shall live: The Old Testament had a shadowy understanding of the life to come, because the secrets of the life to come have now been revealed by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Timothy 1:10). But here is a confident expectation of resurrection and glory for the Lord’s righteous ones.



3. (20-21) The promise of refuge in the time of great indignation.



Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, until the indignation is past. For behold, the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; the earth will also disclose her blood, and will no more cover her slain.



a. Come, my people, enter your chambers: Isaiah, speaking for the Lord, prophesies a time when God’s people are invited to come and find refuge until the indignation is past.



i. The refuge is secure. God’s people are secure in chambers, with the doors shut behind them. They are hidden securely (Hide yourself).



b. The indignation God’s people are hidden from is from the Lord Himself: the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity. This is not persecution from the wicked, but judgment from the Lord. This is not a local judgment, but something the Lord brings upon the inhabitants of the earth in general.



i. The devastation of the indignation of the Lord is seen all over the earth: The earth will also disclose her blood, and will no more cover her slain.



c. When is this time when God’s people are carried away, securely hidden, from a time of great indignation the Lord brings upon the earth? It can refer to the deliverance of the Jewish people from the fury of the Antichrist described in Revelation 12:6 and 12:13-16. But it is more likely that it speaks of the refuge, the safety, the security of God’s people when they are caught up together with the Lord in the air (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17) and escape the horrific indignation of the Lord that He pours out upon the world in the Great Tribulation (Matthew 24:21-22, Revelation 9:15-21), which will immediately precede the second coming of Jesus Christ (Matthew 24:29-30).



i. Seen this way, this is a powerful passage supporting the teaching of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture, which says that Jesus Christ will remove His people from this earth before the time of Great Tribulation coming upon the earth immediately before His ultimate return.

There is no such thing as a "progressive word." It is not in Scripture.

There is no such thing as watchmen waiting to "devour the works of darkness." It is not in Scripture.

Would you like me to tell you what are the other things in your post which are not in Scripture ... ?

However, there is such a thing as babbling, false "prophesy" about moronic ideas contrived within human imagination and within religious delusion.

Teressa.

you however are in scripture..
and we are told to pray for you...

You need to pray for yourself, and that you cease from misrepresenting the name of God in your nonsensical "prophesies" and "progressive words."

You are not commissioned or placed to speak of "we" as a representative of any group.

Teressa.

you are ignorant...nothing else needs to be said to one that has been fed
and brays for the feed bucket, then kicks the one that bring the grain.

I enjoy reading the posts of loisfaith, and although i do not know if she is correct, i do however trust her intentions and i do still enjoy the read.
I think God has more compassion then you give him credit for, and that the wall between the physical and spiritual world is only a wall of ignorance, that can be put aside with faith.
The more faith you ahve, the lesser that wall seems.
For this reason i am not so quick to judge Loisfaith, as by her words i can see she has found Jesus and trusts in God.
Time will tell of the correcness of the prophecy, however i would not ask Liosfaith to stop because i think she might be wrong. Heck the whole of the world thinks G.Bush is wrong, but yet he still has the right to talk. Who are we to stop a fellow sister in faith from speaking what she feels. I say testify away LiosFaith! If God tells you to speak, speak!
Doesn't matter what I or anyone else says.
The test is on earth, the reward is in heaven.

I stand up for my prayer buddy Loey (Lois) here and now, and any attack on Lois will be reflected to sender, in the name of Jesus Our Precious Lord.

I warned you Teressa, after the blasphemous sarcastic "Thank You Lord" in which you blamed God for every negative thing on earth. It is Satans signature all over, and I tell you this: HIDE, for the Wrath of the Lord is upon you this day.

Psalm 2 has a perspective on our Lord Jesus Christ:

2:1 Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3 Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.
5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
6 Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
8 Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9 Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. 10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Oh, that our President would fall on his knees in sincere prayer of repentance toward God on national television and urge everyone in America to do the same. Our God is indeed a merciful God, not desiring that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

However, Jesus Christ bears not the title, "THE LION OF JUDAH," in vain.

May he be glorified now and forever. He is truly KING OF KINGS and LORD OF LORDS!

In Him,

Mike

The Declaration of War with the World stands as of today. ON OUR KNEES!

You presume to declare that the "prophetic" nonsense of this OP is "grain?" It is not a bucket of "grain," but a bucket of humanly contrived offal.

Authentic Prophets do not babble nonsense. They do not contrive worthless imagery having a worthless meaning. If the Lion of Judah is actually going to roar, then all of the bandwagon jumping and getting "Ready" is of no effect.

This so called "prophet" is more likely mentally ill, hears demonic voices, or is just "blessed" with a huge ego to think they can advise other people about spiritual things they know nothing about.

Teressa.

And you are a hollow brass barrel.

Yes but praying for someone is biblical, isn't it?

You seem to have much bitterness in you Teresa, what happened to you that you should act in this fashion?

You seem to have much arrogance and some whiney little ideas in you. What woman has trained you to think like this?

Teressa.

You think a person's "intentions" validates their socalled "prophesies?"

You think because a person "speaks what she feels" she is worth listening to?

Neither of these parameters are from Scripture. You need to do some study of the Word, and hopefully see how real Prophets spoke and were validated.

Teressa.




I judge myself with the same standards I use to evaluate "Lois."

The resulting assessment shows that "Lois" is a false "prophet."

Teressa.




You can "warn" me all you want. You are still just babbling about your feelings, and are unaware of reality.

Teressa.

Duuuuuuurrrr Duuuuuurrrrrrrrr

I believe a person has a right to freedom of speech, and that you have no right to censor because you do not agree with what they are saying.
Your rude demeanor only adds fuel to the Satans fire.
Spreading hate, and rudeness, is not the work of Jesus.
Therefore you are fooling yourself with your ego, believing yourself so great to be as judge,
As by your works you are a spreader of the seed of Satan, which is hate.

Also i see you are aware of what you are doing, and it is your intention to cause dissent within the forum.

Remember you will reap what you sow, and your fruit is bitter.

Wouldn't Teressa have been absolutely PERFECT cast in the lead role of the Shakespearean play (or film), "THE TAMING OF THE SHREW"?!! LOL!!!

But who wants to be Petruchio ?

C

Still a hollow brass barrel.

What woman trained me? I was born of New Jerusalem, the "mother of us all", of the Spirit if you will.

I noticed every time talk of King Jesus returning in the flesh it seems to get people angry for some reason...
Who can withstand the wrath of the Lamb?......

There are underlying spirits who do not want Jesus to return. They say they do but don't.

Just look at the first time Jesus came....

*standing next to my brother marc and holding his ears so that the hollow brass does not deafen him*

Back to Lois,

Jesus returns in a cloud, like rain and like lightning, when Jesus is revealed we will know Him.

Trust me, when He roars, you will hear the very thunders of God.

Brothers sisters, children of Salvation, this time is very soon upon us...

bumping this one back up!
