the Lord said:
“I am pressing and pressing on many, to bring them to the fullness of surrender to me. I will bring in the sheaves. I WILL bring harvest. Though it comes in a way not familiar to many, it will come. The enemy will also arise as I pour out My wonderful surprise to My bride. He has already been trying to thwart the arising of those I have chosen to fight in this battle.
Don’t look at things from a worldly perspective. I know it’s hard not to in times like these where your soul is tormented daily like Lot’s with all that is in the news and around you. It is so easy to feel defeated. But don’t rely on your feelings beloveds. CAST off the feelings of despair and discouragement and heaviness the enemy is trying to throw on you. CHOOSE the path of FAITH. DECLARE THE TRUTH to him. Use your sword. I gave it to you as a weapon to wield against him and his hordes.
I will arise in the earth in My own. I will pour out what I’ve promised. I WILL have a great harvest before the end. I have brought you to the end of self that I may be lifted up and glorified above all else. Man has lifted himself up so much in this nation, I have had to stomp down the works of pride and I will do it even more, for I AM at hand. I WILL purify My bride. But know that it will be very bloody in days ahead. Many will lose their lives in this hour, but gain eternal joy. Do not lose heart for I warned you of these days.
I warned you it would be as in the days of Noah. That it would be violent.
I AM YOUR SHIELD. I will not allow the enemy to take you or your loved ones till I SAY. Your lives are in MY hands, not the enemy’s. I am Your Shield and Buckler. I AM your Defense. Just shout out MY NAME when you are afraid. Seek ME for answers you need. I AM HERE. I WILL BE WITH YOU TILL THE END OF TIME. I will NEVER leave you nor forsake you. I am beside you, behind you, in front of you, under and above you. Just call on ME.
I will show you great and marvelous things. Come to me, that I might transform you, and bring you into greater levels of authority and light. Lay aside every weight.
I am your Ma’Gee Nee. [My Protector, My Shield] I am in you and with you, so FEAR NOT the things that lie ahead. Know that things are changing here in this world, but all will lead to the culmination of all things, and soon you will be with ME in your heavenly home. Meanwhile there is a great Harvest at hand. Too many are concerned with rapture without really being concerned for the LOST. I CAME to save the lost, to crush the works of the devil. And that must be your call and walk as well if you are a follower. Remember that Job was healed when he prayed for his friends, as well. Pray for those I’ve put around you, that you may fulfill the great commission.
I am so proud of you beloveds for holding on to ME in the midst of all this change and hardships. I see all you’ve been through and suffered through at the hands of man, and the enemy. So cast ALL your cares on ME for I care for you. You are my beloved, and I am yours. Come into deep communion with ME that you would receive My heart, and know how much I love you.”
Rev 2:9 AMP I know your affliction and distress and pressing trouble and your poverty--but you are rich! And how you are abused and reviled and slandered by those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
Rev 2:20-23 AMP 20 But I have this against you: that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess [claiming to be inspired], and who is teaching and leading astray my servants and beguiling them into practicing sexual vice and eating food sacrificed to idols. [1 Kings 16:31; 2 Kings 9:22,30.] 21 I gave her time to repent, but she has no desire to repent of her immorality [symbolic of idolatry] and refuses to do so. 22 Take note: I will throw her on a bed [j of anguish], and those who commit adultery with her [her paramours] I will bring down to k pressing distress and severe affliction, unless they turn away their minds from conduct [such as] hers and repent of l their doings. 23 And I will strike her children (her proper followers) dead [thoroughly exterminating them]. And all the assemblies (churches) shall recognize and understand that I am He Who searches minds (the thoughts, feelings, and purposes) and the [inmost] hearts, and I will give to each of you [the reward for what you have done] as your work deserves. [Ps 62:12; Jer 17:10.]
