The Lord kept me up most of the night, bringing a word
for me to share now. Many times I wait until I have prayed over what I hear
in my spirit, but I can't wait to send this word out.
Last night, while praying before I went to bed, the Lord
gave me a vision that really rattled me. In the vision, I saw this land
split into four parts, with each one under its own flag. Each region had
terrible destruction and many people were dead. As I looked over the
destruction, I was crying and the Lord asked me, "Why are you crying over
the fall of Babylon? As a matter of fact, why have you been praying
for the healing of Babylon?" In this vision, I didn't have an answer and
the Lord opened a scroll and started reading the indictments against our
country, but before each one He clearly called the USA "Babylon."
The list was long and to the point, with such points as
the killing of the several generations of unborn children. Beside this
charge, He added that these babies had been sacrificed to the god of
self. The list also included greed, idolatry, pride, fornication and many
others -- so many I could not even read them all. As I looked at the list
of charges, I was overwhelmed and broken by the fact that we live every day
in a nation that is so far removed from God and in total opposition to the
Kingdom of God, yet we are comfortable here. We have become just like Lot
living in Sodom -- the prosperity that the nation offers us has blinded us
from the evil that rules this land. We complain about how bad it is but
still stay attached to it with every ounce of strength we have.
The Lord told me to look at the nation as He sees it, not
through my eyes but through His. I could not look too long before I had to
agree and repent of loving Babylon. Once I repented, the Lord told me to
prepare for the fall, as time is running out. I must preach the Gospel of
the Kingdom, not the Gospel of America. America is already judged; the
time of shaking is now and will increase rapidly this summer. Water
shortages and food shortages will become common this summer, as well
as fuel shortages. Civil unrest will become commonplace in large
cities first but will spill over into the rural areas, as well.
Natural disasters will stretch the resources of the
nation to the breaking point and the government will use this to take
freedom away. Brothers up north take note: you will see this start to
happen quickly. Please seek the Lord for direction, as you are out of
time. The west coast will see this soon, as well; please prepare.
In this vision there was a great wasteland that appeared
to be in the center of the nation, where everything was wiped out; I saw
masses of people wandering without direction. They were dirty and ragged,
almost dead, and there was no relief in sight. Most of you guys reading
this think I'm crazy, I'm sure; but I must be faithful to share what I'm
given to share.
The Lord told me to cry from the mountain tops to repent
and seek the Lord now! We don't have any more time to seek after the things
of this world. He has also given me teaching to prepare people to pass
through this time of shaking into the Kingdom and I must be faithful to
preach this word anywhere I have an open door. If you want to hear this
word, please contact me to set up times and places, but, again, I must warn
you, we are running out of time. We must stop living like we have all the
time in the world. We must stop crying over the fall of Babylon and press
into the Kingdom.
