THERE IS NO TURNING BACK NOW

9/5/2020

6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, Rev. 14

(We are told that if God's people pray for the land to be healed then God will hold back his judgment upon a land, and so I write this as a simple preamble before this prophetic word to state that premise. And yet, let it be known that there comes a time when the Lord has given ample time for many to come and so turn the tide of disbelief and complacency, and then judgment falls. No matter what your thoughts may be, we are now living upon the pinnacle of that last stroke of the clock when we cannot return back to where we were before. Truly, we do live in perilous times.)

(The Spirit of the Lord showed me an angel with a trumpet raised and was about to blow upon it.

"My angels are set upon the corners of your land. They are there ready to usher in judgment upon the land. You are entering into a new time zone where there is no turning back. For there will be no turning back from whence you came from before. For the man in your White House will bring down the pillars of your democracy.

Many that have forged the way for you to be a people filled full of hope for a new land that has grace and unity in it, will see that division has become the norm. For bloodshed will be the norm.

You are a people who are not unlike my people Israel. For many of you are now sacrificing to the golden calf; you have found your idol now. But this idol will not deliver you, for it is raised up in its own name and not mine.

But come, let us reason together you say. 'For surely, the principles that I endorse are for the preservance of human life.' And yet with one hand you propose certain principles and then with the other one, your lies divide one against another. Foolish people, do you not yet have eyes to see! You follow after a man that will soon bring you to the grave and yet you think he holds up biblical principles!

But you will be torn asunder on that day, and your division will run down the channel of your great river called the Mississippi. For a new land will be formed on that day, for the older configuration of your land will no longer be seen. But then it will be too late, for the damage will then be done.

And yet, I will have a people who have not given into these things. They will forge a way in the wilderness and will work together as one man. You stand upon the cusp of these things.

Thus, would say the Spirit of the Lord."

THE WINDS ARE BLOWING ACROSS YOUR LAND

8/29/2020

18 Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of vanity, and sin as it were with a cart rope:19 That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!21 Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! Isaiah 5

"The winds are blowing across your land. Their strength will gather and the force of them will not only demolish your government, but it will reform another one. For indeed, great changes are coming. Little do you know what lies ahead; for that one doomed for perdition is soon to take over. Every square inch of your land will be under his control. But will you recognize him?

But my people, you will have a voice. For you will defeat your ancient enemy. You will gather strength and your arsenal will be built upon those things of my Spirit, and your discernment will see into the enemy's camp. Many great feats of my Spirit will be accomplished in that hour. For you will not give into the beast system.

But woe to those who call evil good. Woe to those who have no eyes to see. You have held your flag of patriotism high and yet you don't know what you're giving allegiance to. Would that those who have gone before you had seen your acts of betrayal for they would have known what is true and what is false.

You think that you will gain more freedoms and yet they will be slowly taken away from you. For when the rich are fed and yet the poor beg for scraps, then you are not a rich nation. "

THIS IS A TIME TO GO TO YOUR PRAYER CLOSETS

8/22/2020

6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. Matt. 6

“For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12

"This is a time to go to your prayer closets. For you have need to prepare yourselves for what lies ahead. For the days ahead will be filled with much turmoil and chaos. Seek those things that are above for you will not find your answers upon this earth.

You will be brought before many to give your allegiance to the "one" who is about to take over. Woe to those who give into him. You must stand firm in your promises. You must believe in Me above all else. For many will proclaim that they are the Christ, but you shall know them by their fruits.

Have you sharpened your discernment? Can you distinguish between what is true and what is not? For many of you have been misled and you cannot tell the difference. When will you throw your opinions away and arrive at the truth?

I tell you that some have followed the flag of patriotism over Me. You have stood for those things in your fervor to such an extent that you have shut your eyes to the truth. Some of you think that you will gain much in following after the man that has been elected, but you don't know who he really is.


Many of your Christian leaders have been blinded by him, and yet they don't realize all the freedoms that have been slowly chipped away. For you see, the enemy has been at work. His subtle tongue has been set ablaze and has deceived some of you. Do you not see how his craft has been at work with many of you?

Woe to those who divide a land. Woe to those who cast aspersions upon the truth. You think that your land is divided now, but you don't know yet what is coming."

Stephen Hanson

YOU STAND UPON A PRECIPICE

8/18/2020

“When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.” Proverbs 1:27
"You, those who live in this land, let me ask you a question? Are you ready for the next few years? For I tell you that a whirlwind has come upon your land. For you are a divided nation, and you don't even realize how the divisions will play out. But as I've said before, your divisions will reach a peak, and your land will be split right down the middle.

You are about to turn a corner on the time frame that you are now living in. For the page is about to be turned again. For those things that have been spoken of; those things that have been prophesied, will suddenly come to pass.

You stand upon the precipice, and you are soon to fall over it. Then you will watch as the very fabric of your nation will be unraveling. You think that this is all about Israel, and while those things too will come to pass, you will fall because of your own stubborn adherence to a man who is leading you into a ditch. "

THE CLOUD OF DELUSION IS SPREADING

8/8/2020

7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. 2 Thess. 2

"The world as you know it, is changing. From one day to the next, this world is unraveling. For those things that have been written down in my word are coming. Surely, my people, you can see the signs everywhere. For there is a great cloud of delusion and it has spread its blanket. The cloud of delusion has spread and it is increasing.

For the man in your White House is using everything at his disposal to sway this upcoming election. And the end result will be devastating. For everything that was once a part of your democracy will be in shambles.

Woe to those who call evil good, and woe to those who preach an adherence to lies and deceit. For those who speak these things will have their home with the demons. You who pretend to have a clean heart will be cowering in the dust on that day. And those who have taught to follow after these things will surely reap your rewards.

For you have taught those things contrary to what is good and decent. Who is he that twists the truth? Is not your ancient enemy the propagator of these things? You oh land that was once the land of the free and the home of the brave, will be thrown into a whirlwind--for you will reap the whirlwind. "

Stephen Hanson

ON THAT DAY

8/15/2020

9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Rev. 14

17 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.2 And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,3 Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.4 And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.5 So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.6 And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook. 1 Kings 17

"You are racing towards judgment oh land that was once the home of the brave and the land of the free. You have followed after a man who is soon bringing you to ruin. Woe to those who call evil good and evil good.

Your democracy is failing, and yet the time will come when you will reach out to Me because everything else will have fallen. On that day your land will be in shambles. You will have been besieged by an outside force.

Your land will never be great again, for you have fallen by the wayside. For you will get in your boats on that day and travel from the very center of your land, for a gulf will separate the eastern half from the western half. You will be a fragmented United States.

And many will have taken the mark, and yet a few will stand firm in their resolve. Many will have fallen prey to the enemy so that they could buy and sell. But you must stand firm for I will be with you on that day.

You will have banded together and forged a way in the wilderness. There you will be sustained by my very hand and fed, even as Elijah was in the wilderness. The rocks and the trees, they will be your home. And scouts will survey the land to see when all is safe.

These things are not a longs ways off as some may think. For your world is changing, even before your very eyes now. "

I WAS DESPISED AND REJECTED--A MAN OF SORROWS WHO WAS ACQUAINTED WITH GRIEF

8/5/2020

3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. Isaiah 53
"I have come to give you life and that more abundantly. And yet many refuse the life that I would give to them. I was not received by all; I was despised and rejected, a man of sorrows who was acquainted with grief.

I have come and yet I was received not. And you also have not been received by all. You may well be despised and rejected because you are mine. Do not expect the world to love you, for it did not love Me.

But you will always have Me by your side. I will walk with you, and I will be with you unto the end of the age. For many may come in my name proclaiming themselves as the Christ, but you will know them by their fruits. Do not be afraid of them for nothing will be hidden that will not be seen.

Reach out to Me and I will give you power from on high. I will establish you and set you upon a rock. A thousand may fall by your side and while your enemies may be many, they will be put to flight by my word.

You are a chosen generation and a royal priesthood. You have the value of kings within your makeup. And yet even as the world around you is seemingly being overcome by the evil one, I AM greater in you.

And yet it is now time to develop a heart and a mind of endurance. For the race ahead calls for this mindset. You must learn the value of training for the long haul. This is surely not a sprint.

So set your mind and your hearts upon those things that are above, for they are everlasting. "


11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: John 11

I HAVE CALLED YOU TO ENDURE TO THE END

8/1/2020

“For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14

For there shall arise false christs and false prophets and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Matt. 24:24

"You were made for a time such as this. You have been brought forth out of the depths of time to live in these days. For you are a people devoted to Me---and yet some of you have gone your own way. There are some of you who have believed a lie--you have believed that a man would deliver you from all your troubles. Will you find peace or will you find chaos?

As I have said, you have entered into that time period where there is no turning back. Your election time will be a turning point, for then the end will be brought about. And then you will know and see. The rioting will continue; for on every street corner there will be demonstrations and turmoil. But watch and see, for the enemy is at work; he raises his dark tentacles outwards to turn the hearts of many. And yet many will be deceived, for I have said that if possible, even the elect would be deceived.

The road ahead during the next few years will be more difficult, yea more difficult than the world has ever faced before. But I have called you to endure."

Stephen Hanson

YOU ARE ON A ROAD WHERE THERE IS NO TURNING BACK

7/26/2020

The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying 2 Thus speaketh the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book.3 For, lo, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the Lord: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.4 And these are the words that the Lord spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah.5 For thus saith the Lord; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.6 Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble, but he shall be saved out of it. Jeremiah 30

"I tell you my people, you are on the road when there is a time for no turning back. You have entered into that time frame that is approaching Jacob's Trouble---call it what you will, it will be a time of deep trouble and confusion for all. The blanket is set out before you, and it is spread with many who will bring about the one-world government.

You must set your face like flint and persevere for the road ahead will be a long one. Don't be deterred from the path that I have set you upon. Don't be led astray by many who think that they have the answers. There are many who may have good intentions but they have not listened to my voice. These are those who listen to the most popular youtube videos and follow their favorite bible teachers.

I tell you that there are many voices out there; there are many you claim to be true prophets of mine, but they have instead, been following their own voices rather than mine. But if you had asked for my discernment then you would have known the difference.

Of what would I compare this generation to? Of what would it have recalled something from the past? I tell you that you have followed many pied pipers and they have led you down many strange roads. And now some of you have followed them for so long that you don't even realize that you are in the ditch now.

You have gone after the wind. You have reaped the whirlwind. Your division that has been growing deeper and deeper, will erupt and cause that great rift to open up. You say that it is because of Israel, and I tell you that is only part of it. More and more people will die in the streets.

But of those who truly seek after Me, I will give you the keys to my kingdom. For what you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; and what you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. For even though a great darkness is coming, the light that is being shed upon my own will bring forth all kinds of demonstrations of my Spirit.

For you were birthed for a time such as this. You were given this time by my own Son to live our your days upon this earth. "
Stephen Hanson

YOU MUST WALK AS THE MEN OF OLD WALKED

7/21/2020

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony.3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. Hebrews 11

"You must walk as the men of old walked. For in these days your faith will become more and more important. For even when the darkness spreads its cloak and at times you will wonder which way to go, then you must draw upon your faith as a man would even in deep darkness.

Those great men of faith did not always know which way they were going, and yet they traveled forward, not with the eyes of mortal men, but with the eyes of faith. For they kept their eyes towards their eternal home.

My hand was upon them and my Spirit guided them. They didn't have charts and road maps, and yet the course that I had for them was directing them. When one takes off on a journey they make sure they have everything they need. They take their belongings with them--their clothes and all the other things they might need.

And so now, even in this spiritual journey that you are taking, strike out in faith and walk as the men of old walked."

Stephen Hanson

DO YOU HAVE THE YOU SAY THAT YOU ARE RICH, BUT YOU ARE POOR

7/18/2020

Because thou sayest, “I am rich and increased with goods and have need of nothing,” and knowest not that thou art wretched and miserable, and poor and blind and naked, Rev. 3:17

"Who are you, would say the Lord? Who are you that would stand against Me? For you are either for Me or against Me? When I drew a line in the sand it was meant to separate who knew of their sin and then would come to Me. But I tell you that there are many among you who think that they have no need for forgiveness. These are those who stand ready to dispute about anything. They split hairs over trivial matters, and would in turn, put Me back on the cross over such things.

Would you not be better off arguing your point in the back row of a seminary? Write all of your disputes down on the day of my visitation and then see if you will be answered. For I have come for those who are not worthy; I have come for the lowly, and not for those who are brilliant who would dispute matters at every turn of the hat.

I would rather that you would go to the byways and those corners, where the downtrodden live; and there if I would find you, I would see you encouraging the poor and lifting up the hopeless. But rather you would say that you are rich and in no need of help. But then I would say that you are poor and destitute. For then I would say to you, 'Depart from Me for I never knew you.' "

Stephen Hanson

FAITH OF ABRAHAM?

7/14/2020

Now the Lord had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, From your family And from your father’s house, To a land that I will show you. 2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” 4 So Abram departed as the Lord had spoken to him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran. 5 Then Abram took Sarai his wife and Lot his brother’s son, and all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people whom they had acquired in Haran, and they departed to go to the land of Canaan Gen. 12

"Do you have the faith to walk as I walked upon this earth? Can you walk ahead not knowing where the next step will take you? Truly, Abraham left his small town of Ur and struck out not knowing where he was going to, and yet he became the father of nations. He left with his wife and children, and herds of cattle and sheep. And how long and how far did he travel? He ventured through unknown territories, through kingdoms he had never heard of before. He walked as few men had ever walked before. And yet he did not have a compass and the bible, my holy words. You have more at your disposal than he ever did, and yet you still don't know where you're going.

Have you not seen and have you not heard, that I, the Lord of hosts watch all of the affairs of man? I have seen your plight, and the days in which you now live. Many are dying in the process now, and many have doubted the days in which you now live. And yet still, many go unprepared for what lies ahead.

So, but if you have the faith of Abraham then you will go about your daily lives, not necessarily knowing what lies ahead, but willing to walk forward in faith, that I will give you the strength ahead."

Stephen Hanson

WHAT WOULD YOU CALL THIS GENERATION?

7/12/2020

16 But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the markets, and calling unto their fellows, 17 And saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented. Matt. 11

"What would you call this generation, would say the Lord? Of what would this time be compared to? I tell you that no one before you will have experienced the things that you have now. For indeed, the sun has always come up and it has gone down. But now the door has been opened to those things that are prophesied to come. Indeed, that period of time referred to by many as the great tribulation is very soon to be unfolded.

And yet many of you quibble over the most minute things; you split hairs over things that are insignificant but you ignore the greater things. You are divided over so many issues. How will you be ready when I come back for you?

You are so caught-up in sensational things that you have replaced reading my word with youtube videos, and you deem these things as truth. There are so many stories and half-truths that it is like walking through a forest without a pathway to guide you. Who are your teachers and from whom have you learned? Have I not said, 'Let not many of you be teachers for they will be judged more harshly?'

Am I not the Chief Shepherd, sayeth the Lord? Am I not your teacher and King? And yet you have made masters over many of you. The enemy is a master weaver and he spins a tale to get you side-tracked from Me. For many of you have been distracted by him. Get back to basics and then you won't be without your rudder in your ship in a storm."

Stephen Hanson

WHERE WILL YOU FLEE TO ON THAT DAY?

7/2/2020

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? Rev. 6

"For, in a matter of a few months this land's patriotism will have fallen. For you oh land, are being brought to the ground. You oh land, have fallen prey to the sounds and whispers of the enemy. Your economy will drop below what it's ever been before. There will be a momentary time of peace, but then everything will hit the fan. For I have said before that the almighty dollar will fail, and at that time you will scatter to even find bread to eat. For at that time even a loaf of bread will be an exorbitant price. There will be famine and there will be plagues across the globe; for the horsemen will be riding across the land.

Woe to those who say that all is well. For these have not read my word and they don't know of the times and seasons. These are those who have put their faith in a man they think would deliver them, but it is only I who would deliver you on that day. Mine are mine, and I will keep them safely tucked under my wings. Nothing will harm them for I will keep them safe.

Where will you run to and where would you flee on that day? Who would be your tall tower? Who would be your rock and your fortress? For your cities will have been emptied and many will have fled to the mountains--and they would say to the rocks, 'Fall on us for we would rather die.'

But my people will be great and they will do exploits. They will be lights in a dark land. For at that time, a great gulf will separate your eastern and western sections. You will have become a fragmented United States. Your land will have come under attack and you will have been laid siege. For the great bear and dragon will have taken over your land. They will have come under the shade of night in secrecy from the northern regions.

Your surveillance system will have decried these things but it will have been too late. But I will have warned my people ahead of time. "

Stephen Hanson

I AM THE ONE WHO WILL DELIVER YOU FROM YOUR TROUBLES

6/28/2020

10 Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.12 Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. 1 Peter 1

"Watch and wait---for these are the days that many that came before you looked into. These are the days that the prophets of old inquired about. They knew that these days would be paved with many trials. These are those days that are leading up to my return. These are the days that will be paved with many trials and problems. For everything has been building up to this point---but will you be ready?

Will you be ready when the economy utterly fails? Will you be ready when men and women run to and fro in fear? For chaos will reign at every corner. Woe to those who prophesy false hopes; for there are many false prophets and teachers among you. These are those whose hope is in this present earth.

But when their hopes are dashed because of the circumstances surrounding them, then they may well change their course. And yet many would rather believe a lie, for it is more of a comfort to them. Many still put their hope in a present leader for they are no different than the children of Israel. They looked for a king to deliver them and yet he was ruthless. But I ask you, 'Who is your king?'

I AM the One who will deliver you from many troubles. I AM He that you can come to in your time of trouble. Did I not deliver the children of Israel out of the wilderness? Did I not deliver them from their captivity? Have I not delivered some from the mouth of lions? Did I not give Samson strength to stand against the Philistines? And did I not choose a young lad as a shepherd boy who became king over Israel?

So, when the waters rise all around you and chaos reigns supreme, know it is I who will deliver you."

32 And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions.34 Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens.35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: 36 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: 37 They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; 38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. 39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect. Hebrews 11

Stephen Hanson

KEEP YOUR FOCUS AND DON'T BE MISLED

6/22/2020

25 Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee. 26 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil. Proverbs 4

21 And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. Isaiah 30:21

"As you approach these days that are ahead, keep your focus and don't be misled. For some would attempt to get you off of the path that is ahead. Don't listen to the voices that would deter you from the goal. For you are now being swept into a raging river of political and social issues. But if you would take the time and now step out of the river, you would see that there is a pathway designed for just you to follow.

Don't follow your favorite bible teachers right now for many of them now are caught-up in the maelstrom of current events. But keep your eyes looking straight ahead, and don't be deterred by looking to the left or the right. The political agenda is just a smoke screen. For it is all like white noise or a station that would keep you off-track.

The enemy is using the global crisis to cause you to lose your hope in Me. It's not that this pandemic is not real, it is; but the devices that he uses are to divide and conquer. For many are being misled in this hour."

MY SANCTUARY

24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: Hebrews 9:24

Afterward he brought me to the temple, and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the tabernacle.2 And the breadth of the door was ten cubits; and the sides of the door were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured the length thereof, forty cubits: and the breadth, twenty cubits.3 Then went he inward, and measured the post of the door, two cubits; and the door, six cubits; and the breadth of the door, seven cubits.4 So he measured the length thereof, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said unto me, This is the most holy place. Ezekiel 41

"My sanctuary that is in heaven houses those things that are in the firmament. For my angels are always encircled around my throne. They sing their praises night and day. And yet there are warring angels that descend into the lower regions of the earth. For there they battle against the spiritual hosts of wickedness.

But come now into my sanctuary, would say the Lord. Come past the candlesticks and the shewbread. Enter into my abode, would say the Lord. For here time has no bearing on anything else. Here time has no beginning or end. For the world is in chaos below; and yet I reside above the world.

The winds of judgment have fallen upon the world below. There is a hush before the next wave comes. But I tell you that if you reside within my temple, not the one made with human hands, then you will make it through the onslaught that is ahead. For I have said that I would keep you safely under my wings.

For I see the beginning from the end. I see the spiritual hosts of wickedness as they speak unto many of you, attempting to bring confusion unto your hearts. And I tell you that you must not give into their whispers. Set your hearts and minds like flint for what is ahead. For this race will be a long one. "

HOW WOULD YOU BE READY FOR THESE DAYS?

6/12/2020

If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. Col. 3

“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.” 2 Peter 3:10

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matt. 24

" Seek those things above; would say the Lord. For there is nothing on this earth that would save you. Why would you look to man, for his frame is weak. Only I can save you from those things that lie ahead. For you are in those days that have been prophesied long ago. Men will hide themselves in the rocks for fear of what is coming. But you have no need to fear if you put your faith and trust in Me.

For on that day it will be known, for this world itself, will be wrapped-up. Everything that you now see will be gone. For there will be new heavens and a new earth. All the former things will not be remembered nor will they come to mind. But you oh man must be ready for that day. For there will be tribulation like there has never been seen before. The entire geography of your United States will be fragmented. There will be a gulf between the west and the east. Your Great Lakes will pour their water into the Mississippi River. For the great rumbling under that river and near by it, will have caused a great chasm to occur. But you have been warned many times before about this.

You have been in the time of sorrows and then the next stage will come. For on that day some will say, 'Behold, He is in the desert, or he is here or He is there. For many false prophets will arise, and if possible will deceive even the elect. For a great deception has spread across your land. Many are deceived; for the man in your White House has led many astray. For think not that your land will ever be great again. These are lies birthed in the theme of patriotism.

But how would you be ready for these days you would say? Do I need to hoard food and prepare my home with guns and artillery? Have I not said that my ark would save you? No, it is not the ark that Noah built long ago; for it was built of wood. This one is made of Spirit and it is framed with my wings. Ah, but how would such a thing save you on that day, you would ask? I have always said to make shelter under my wings. I have always said that I AM your hiding place. I have outlined many of these things in Psalm 91.

So again I say, prepare yourselves for that day. Do not listen to the naysayers. Do not be led astray by this report or that one.

Be ready, says the Lord."

Stephen Hanson

THESE ARE THE DAYS THAT ARE SET BEFORE YOU

6/1-2/2020

Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105

The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined. Isaiah 9:2

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matt. 24

"Seek Me above all else, says the Lord.

There are greater storms that are coming. You need to batten down the hatches, for the seas ahead will be stormy ones. It will be a whirlwind of activity in the coming months. So be ready. Stand guard over your hearts, says the Lord.

Watch and wait while your king tries to mobilize his forces to stop the spread of violence in the land. And yet I tell you that more violence will ensue because of this. But now is not the time to fear; now is not the time to give up.

Now is the time to put all your faith and trust in Me. The government is not the answer. Where is peace to be found, says the Lord? You must set your hearts and minds upon things above. For these are the days that are set before you. These days will spread out before you like a blanket.

A man would use a candle or a lantern to illuminate the way before him. And yet even in great darkness he might find his way ahead. And yet when the blind is leading the blind, then many would grope ahead.

How many know the way ahead in deep darkness? How many can find their way ahead when it is hidden from many? You must develop eyes to see, says the Lord. For the way ahead will not be seen with your natural eyes. Are you ready to forge ahead, says the Lord? For you have begun to enter into those times of sorrow. You know not what lies ahead, says the Lord, But I tell you that in the coming months and year, that you will be hurled into the very last of days. This time next year will find you grabbing at my robe at all times, says the Lord.

For when you think that everything has gotten as bad as it could get, you will soon find out that you have been just peering at the top of the iceberg. For your nation has fallen, says the Lord. You waited for someone to make you great again, and yet now, very soon, you have fallen into destruction.

But all these things are coming so that you will put your faith in Me. For this world will be slowly fading away. And now the times of judgment have increased; For men will grab their chests in fear because of the things that are happening around them.

For everything that can be shaken will be shaken. Even those institutions of men's ministries that have been built upon their own glorification's, will fall to the ground in ruin.

You are on the precipice of the time called the 'great tribulation.'

Stephen Hanson

EVERY SQUARE INCH OF THIS LAND WILL BE SHAKEN

5/28/2020

17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 1 Peter 4

17 For nothing is secret, that shall not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad. Luke 8

"There is nothing hidden that won't be seen. For I will expose the evil that has been hidden in many hearts. Where many have flocked to hear a man speak, and raise his mouth in evil towards others, I will surely cast those words aside. For the world as you know it, is slowly being rocked back and forth. It is being rocked as a drunkard would be upon the seas.

For as you see, judgment has spread across the globe. The tentacles of the enemy have spread their arms reaching into the farthest country. And yet even in the midst of this great epidemic, some still think that it is a hoax. Some still think that this is some type of cold or virus. These are those who weave stories in the night. These are those who listen to the stories of some, that this was invented by some to rid the world of malice and greed. And yet I would ask you, what is in your heart oh man? What things have filled you, that you are so wise in your assessment of this current crisis?

I have told you that judgment must first begin at the household of God; and so you are being shaken. Every square inch of this land will be shaken, from the least of you to the greatest. Those of you who choose to ignore the warnings around you will contract this disease. For I tell you that other things are coming. This is just the beginning of what is unfolding. The plagues of Egypt will pale in comparison to what is coming. "

Stephen Hanson

5/23/2020

2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 2 Thess 2.

"The shadow of the enemy has spread around the globe, but I tell you that my light will penetrate all the darkness. For darkness will never defeat the light; and yet the signs that are all around you, point to the times that you are now living in. Watch and wait, for the days will unravel into other ones, and soon the entire beast system will take over.

But you are not yet in that season now. This is a taste of what is to come. For your nation will fall prey to these things, and the one that calls himself king, will take over. Woe to those who follow after him. For many of you my people, have been deceived. You haven't yet had your eyes poured with salve so that you may see.

For ultimate control will be given to him. There will be nothing left that would be under his finger. But you my people, must devote yourselves to prayer. You must enter into my chambers daily. Now is the time to be alert.

But don't be swayed by many of the reports that you are now reading. For many of them would lead you astray. "

Stephen Hanson

I AM FORGING THE SONS OF GOD

5/19/2020

Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple, even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts.2 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:3 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. Malachi 3

"Swiftly I come at the appointed time. But until that time you must go through all kinds of ordeals and tribulations. For these things are for the perfecting of your faith. Allow Me to do the work that is needed within you. For a smithy works with metal; he shapes it into the piece of metal that he is looking for. He forges it under deep heat. And then he hammers it into shape.

I have a furnace in my heavenly throne room, and this is where I forge the sons of God. I shape them into the image that I AM desiring. Be patient in my forging, my sons and daughters, for in due season you will have gone through the furnace of affliction.

The world is being brought to its knees at this time, and my prophetic time table is hastening towards the day that I return. But don't be swayed by this report or that one; be students of my word. Be wise in discerning between truth and error.

What is true and what is not, you may ask? For the one with discerning of spirits knows these things quite well. For it discerns the thoughts and intentions of the heart. It alone knows when something is true or not. For truth is unfolded one layer at a time, and falsehood is exposed.

And there at the center, when everything is laid open, my Holy Spirit sheds its light. There you will find truth, my people. For many in my body are swayed by the things happening around them. There in the midst of this great epidemic is falsehood mixed with truth.

You have not yet entered into the time frame when the beast system takes over. For at that time you will not be able to buy or exchange, and what is being done right now, while appearing to be something 'like that,' is NOT what many think.

Study to show yourselves approved. Be students of my word. And don't be swayed by this report or that one."

Stephen Hanson

WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF MY SOON COMING?

5/14/2020

22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;24

16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20
“Be of good cheer, says the Lord, for even though the world is racing towards judgment I AM with those who have put their faith and trust in Me. For nothing is hidden that will not be seen. The turmoil that you see all around you is a sign of what is to come. For the powers that be are at work behind the scenes.

For you will go through much tribulation in the days ahead, and many will fall to fear because of this, but know that I will carry you through these things. For what has been spoken in the past through my holy prophets concerning these days, will surely come to past.

Woe to those who say that all is well around them. Woe to those who choose to ignore my word. But if you have faith even as a grain of mustard seed, then your faith will carry you through these things.

You are not here to build your own kingdoms, for the glory belongs to Me. Are your eyes opened to what is happening around you? But study to show yourselves approved, a workman who has studied my word.

For there are many who claim to be prophets, and yet they were not sent by Me. I have said that you would know them by their fruits. Are the grapes dried and withered up, or are they lush upon the vine?

What are the signs of what you should be seeing around you? What are the signs of my soon coming? I have said that Jews look for a sign and Greeks seek wisdom. It is better not to look for the signs but to look to Me.

Keep your head about you these days and seek wisdom. For truly wisdom is her own reward. “

Stephen Hanson

FROM WHENCE COME WARS AND FIGHTINGS?

4/29/2020

From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.3 Ye ask,
and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts. James 4
13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. 1 Cor. 13


This life has many avenues and many ways that you can enter into it; and yet there is a way that seemeth right unto a man but the end thereof, is the way of death. But choose life this day, and with it, choose those things that would exhibit it.

If you would pursue wisdom then pursue it with the type of life that would exhibit this type of wisdom in a way that would be fair in your dealings with others. Let it be the type of wisdom that would speak the truth in love. Don't be cantankerous in your dealings with others, but strive for peace.

But I speak not of a peace that the world offers; but the peace that I bring passeth all understanding. It is a peace that offers hope to those around them. For hope will never fail you. There are three things that abide and these are everlasting--FAITH, HOPE, and LOVE.

Stephen Hanson

YOU CANNOT PIN-POINT THESE DAYS

4/25/2020

32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.34 For the Son of Man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch. Mark 13

"What would be said about these days, says the Lord? What will cause them to come to an end? Who is to blame for them? Oh, you think you have all the answers...You think this present virus and the deaths involved, are all somehow planned as a diabolical scheme. You think it was planned to get rid of mankind; but little do you know that I allow these things to happen. For truly, the end of days is at hand. For with this pandemic, the beginning of those days of the great trial will soon come upon you.

Truly, there are plots being made, but they are not what many of you think. Yes in time, a one-world government will come, but it is not hinged to what is happening right now. Some of you who prophesy and many of you who teach, do so out of political persuasions.

But, I do tell you that this is just the beginning. For you are now being ushered into those very last of days. Those things spoken of in my word concerning the great catastrophes--those things mentioned in my word about famine and plagues, are now just around the corner. But how will you be made ready for them, and how will you be strengthened for the remaining days that are to come?

Tell Me, you who are so sure that you have pin-pointed these things according to your charts. Surely, your great learning and scholarly research, has given you all the information that you need. Are you so certain that your own thoughts and judgments have not clouded your assessments? And yet indeed, it is true that there will be a collective revelation that will be poured out upon my people.

But I tell you that you must turn off your favorite bible teachers. I tell you that you must throw away your charts. For your chronology of events is what hampers you most in your pursuit of the truth. You think you can chart the stars; you think that every event you hear these days is somehow written down according to my prophetic time table. It is arrogant and it is a foolish display of man's ignorance of my ways.

Have I not said that even the Son does not know the day of all these things? And yet you oh man, think that somehow I have imbued you with such great wisdom and insight, that you can pin-point all these things?

But be ready, I say, for you know not what day the master of the house will require of you. The winds will blow at a great force and the economy will fail. You will never be able to print enough money, and the price of a loaf of bread will be much more than you could imagine. "

Stephen Hanson

KEEP YOUR FOCUS LOOKING STRAIGHT AHEAD

4/19/2020

25 Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.26 Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil. Proverbs 4

26 For consider your calling, brethren, that there were not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble; 27 but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong, 28 and the base things of the world and the despised God has chosen, the things that are not, so that He may nullify the things that are, 29 so that no man may boast before God. 1 Cor. 1

"Seek Me above all else, says the Lord. Seek Me above everything else that is going on around you. The world is changing, says the Lord. For it is rapidly moving to that day when I will return. While you have been sheltering-in-place, take advantage of this time by spending more time with Me. Then you will be more equipped for the days ahead.

Don't follow those who are 'well known' in this world, for have I not said that I have chosen the despised things, the things that are not well known by this world? For not many of you came from noble birth or were of high esteem; but you are now well received by Me.

For many are scoffers, saying 'where is the sign of his return?' But should it not be plain that the signs are all around you? Why would you not be able to see that? But keep your eyes looking straight ahead, not being diverted by those things that you hear around you.

Truly, the wise man is not diverted in his search for he knows that the path ahead is ordered by Me. Keep yourself focused upon Me and my word, and then you will not fall off into the ditch. For many will be falling by the wayside in this hour. "

Stephen Hanson

I SING A SONG FOR MY BELOVED--I SING A SONG FOR THE WORLD

4/10/2020

Now will I sing to my wellbeloved a song of my beloved touching his vineyard. My wellbeloved hath a vineyard in a very fruitful hill:2 And he fenced it, and gathered out the stones thereof, and planted it with the choicest vine, and built a tower in the midst of it, and also made a winepress therein: and he looked that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth wild grapes.3 And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem, and men of Judah, judge, I pray you, betwixt me and my vineyard.4 What could have been done more to my vineyard, that I have not done in it? wherefore, when I looked that it should bring forth grapes, brought it forth wild grapes? Isaiah 5

"I sing a song for my beloved. I sing a song for the world. For even though you may feel like you are forsaken, you are not. You are beloved by Me. I tell you that the days have been difficult, for in time you will find relief. I tell you my people, you will weather the storm; you will make it though, but now is the time to pray.

Make the most of the time that you now have. Lift up this world, and give it to Me, says the Lord. You will not utterly fall, my people. For the disease will end, but the virus within many of your hearts will remain. For many of you are far from Me. Many of you have your own lives to lead. But I would give you mine, if you would but take it.

Indeed, these are dark days, but if you take my hand I will help you through them. Indeed, there are dark days that are coming. For the prophetic time table is unraveling before your very eyes.

For the days are rushing towards my soon return; and yet what will I find when I return? Will I find my church ready for Me? Steady the course that is before you; for the waters will be raging ahead. "

Stephen Hanson

THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE END

4/1/2020
And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. Matthew 246 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matt. 24

The Lord said very plainly to me:

"This is the beginning of the end. Be careful of those who think they know what is going on. For there are many deceivers now. Many think that they know the sequence of events that are going to be coming forth, but I tell you that no one knows these things. Some have been deceived into thinking that their revelation is enlightened more than others, but I dispense my gifts unto many.

If you have a check in your spirit about something that someone has said, then that is my Spirit alerting you. Truly there are many things that are to come forth; truly there are many horrendous things that are coming, but I Am still holding back the dam, because of the time that is short.

Many will be deceived in the coming months and years. For even now many have been deceived into thinking that Trump is a righteous man, but I tell you that the enemy is at work there.

This epidemic will continue for some time; for the disease has spread to the globe, and yet I AM able to heal your diseases. But do not be mistaken, this is the beginning of the end. For after all of these events have transpired, your nation will be hurled into another series of misfortunes.

I hold the keys of life and death and know that in the end, I have triumphed over death. "

Stephen Hanson

YOU HAVE ENTERED INTO A NEW TIME FRAME

3/28/2020

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. Matt. 24

"Things are not going to be the same as they were before. For this is a warning for you, oh land. This is a warning for you to get houses in order; for the destroyer has come, and yet I have control over the systems at work.

Do you think that your government will save you from the sin that is within you? What will happen when your almighty dollar fails? Oh yes, you have been told by some that you will bounce back and that you will become stronger than ever; but you have been sold a load of goods.

You have entered into a new time frame. For the events that you are now in will propel you forward into those very last days. For many false prophets have come, and it is time to access what you should know is true and what is not.

You must keep your heads about you, and be able to discern truth from error. Use this time well to get your homes in order."

Stephen Hanson

THOSE WHO OFFER A FALSE HOPE

3/26/2020
“Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.” Ephesians 5:6

Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Thess. 2

"The man of lawlessness is already in your midst, and yet you do not even see him. For he parades as a man who would seemingly offer hope, and yet in the end it is despair. For my people, you have entered into a new time frame, you have entered into the beginning of the end. For indeed, this crisis is a way of preparing you for the end. As you are huddled away in your homes don't forget your time with Me, for I tell you that this time is more important than ever.

Indeed a short time will come when it would appear that peace has come, and yet it will be a very short time period. Those who say that all is well and that things will be made beautiful, are deceiving you from the truth. Do you not yet have eyes to see? For some would make promises and yet these would be made to seemingly give you hope, but it is only a false hope.

Many of you seek for answers, and yet what you are seeking for is only something that would only alleviate your present pain. A surgeon examines its patients and determines the best course of action, and many times surgery is needed. So, do you want an instant pill to make everything seemingly better, or do you want the root of the problem taken care of?"

WILL YOUR GOODS HELP YOU TO HEAR ME BETTER?

3/22/2020

Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. Matt. 25

"You are in the midst of an epidemic, but the real epidemic is when people have given into the belief that nothing will ever change in their lives. For now many of you have been forced into your homes and yet now, even now, you would rather do other things than to find the time to seek Me. What will do when the real severe judgments come? How will you know and how will you be ready?

Will you seek your tarot cards and astrology charts? Will you seek your psychics? Surely these have the answers you're seeking for. Your naysayers will be prevalent on that day, and they will look for answers and yet they will find none.

And then some of you will give into hoarding, and you will buy kits to sustain you, for surely preparation comes from the acquiring of goods. And yet how many goods will you need when everyone else around you is starving? And will your goods help you to hear Me better? "

WILL I FIND YOU READY WHEN I COME?

3/19/2020 14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light. Ephesians 5

4 And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.5 For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: 2 Peter 3

"This will all come to an end. But know that this is just a preparation for what lies ahead. For then when those days come, will you be ready? For many of you have doubted whether I would ever return. Many of you have wondered, and you have scoffed because you have said, 'Where is the sign of His return---when will He return?' But then on that day you will look upon Him whom you have pierced. For then it will be too late. But I say now, 'Sleeper awake; awake from your slumber. For the night will soon end, and then on that day I will come; but will I find you ready? Will I find you ready when I come? For truly, there are many things ahead. Truly there are many more battles to be fought, but will you be dressed for the battle?

In the great arena there are soldiers that are fighting, and they are equipped in battle gear--and yet their swords and their shields have become rusty. They look up onto the heavens and they look for a sign. They look for a break in the clouds. They look for a ray of sunshine, but now behold, the sky is still dark. I tell you that the war is not over yet, but it is high time that you prepared for it more.

Now is the time to arm yourselves with endurance. For this is not a short race; it is a marathon. Now is the time for great discipline. Now is the time to seek Me; for I await your time with Me. "

Stephen Hanson

YOU NOW STAND UPON THE THRESHOLD

3/16/2020

“Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.” 1 Peter 1:12

"You are now in the end of time. You now stand upon the threshold; for these are the times that the prophets of old had inquired about. This virus is now a dress rehearsal for the end. For how you handle your lives now will show how you will be able to handle those great judgments that are coming.

For are you equipped for what is coming? Are you ready for those things that will come upon this earth? You are a people that goes upon your everyday lives and thinks that nothing will disrupt it. But as you have now seen, your lives are greatly disrupted.

Will you look to your great scholars on that day when the mountains quake and fall into the sea? Will you look to your scientists? Or will your great talk show hosts have the answers? No I tell you, there is only One who will have the answers."

PREPARING BUT NOT FEARING

3/7/2020

12 And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.14 For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth.15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Elijah. 1 Kings

"I will bring judgment upon this land, for it has already begun. Your money supply will be hindered because of this outbreak. I tell you that the markets will tip over and the supply of the almighty dollar will fall. Wait and see my people, for this is just the tip of the iceberg. You have been told by some that you must hoard a great supply of food, but these that do this are not depending upon Me.

For have I not said that I own the cattle on a thousand hills? Have I not said that I will supply all your needs? But no, you would rather live in fear. You would rather fall prey to the news reports that drift across this land.

I tell you that things are getting worse but that does not mean that you need to live in fear. For I will always be with you, even unto the end. Are you all like Peter who looked upon the waves and not upon Me? Remember the woman at Zarephath when the prophet came to her? For the oil and the meal did not run out; and so it will be with you if you put your faith in Me.

But truly I did not say to fear, but I have told you to prepare; and yet it is not in hoarding but it is in the preparing of your hearts for the days ahead. "

LOOK BEYOND THIS WORLD

2/29/2020

11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1

"Do not expect the world to accept you. For I came unto my own, and even my own did not accept Me. For they looked for a great king to deliver them, but instead they found a humble servant. And this humble servant came not to reward the deeds of great men, but to bring light unto those who would receive it.

For the world would look for a savior. The world would look for one to deliver them from all their troubles. But I have not come to deliver you from all your troubles, but I have told you to take my hand, and then in doing so, I will lead you through those troubles.

I have called you to live above the troubles of this world. I have called you to seek those things that are above. For then in seeking those things, you would then live above the troubles of this world. Many would promise you things in this life but in the end they will turn to dust, and wither away as the grass. For those things that are upon this world are not everlasting.

So live as if this world is not your own. Live as though you are just a sojourner. "

PONDER THE STATE OF AFFAIRS

2/15/2020

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.9 If any man have an ear, let him hear. Rev. 13

"Ponder the state of affairs. Ponder the state of affairs and tell me, 'Are you better because of the ruthless man that is leading you now? Ponder about the state of affairs in your land. Are the poor taken care of? Are you safe from all harm in your land? I tell you that very soon that your land will be split right down the middle. I have warned you many times about this. No more will be seen the same configuration in your land. Where once there was land, there then will be a great expanse of water, for the land will rumble and roar, and it will split right down the middle. The Great Lakes will spill their water, and where once there was the Mississippi River, now there will be a gulf of water that fills the gap. For you oh land, are divided in so many ways. You are divided between rich and poor. You are divided between black and white. You are divided between blue and red. And because of these things, I will divide your land, says the Lord. You will weep, and say, 'Why has this happened to us?' You will cry for the loss of life. You will search for the reasons why. But I tell you this, I will not utterly destroy you. For there is still a remnant, and this remnant will not give in to the beast. For that system has begun, and yet many of you are unaware of it. For it will be a complete take over of your government. For your very form of democracy is coming to an end. Do you not see this? For the powers that be are planning this. And yet some think that a golden age will return. There are some apostles that think that better things are to come, and yet these are those who have not studied what my word says is to come. These think that I will help them reform every area of society into a new government; and yet that is not so. For have I not said that perilous times will come? Have I not said that the beast will arise and he will deceive many, and that if possible he will deceive even the elect? But stand your ground, my people, for I will equip you in these days, and you will be able to endure through them."

Stephen Hanson

WHERE WILL YOU GO TO IN THOSE DAYS?

2/10/2020

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 3

Where would you go to in those days? Where will you run to when the government is failing? What will you do when the cities have been ravaged? Will you seek shelter underground? Will you go to your local church and believe that the doors will be opened to you?

Will your great hordes of money save you on that day? Surely, your gold and silver will be a sure defense for you. No, I will tell you that when everything else is failing around you, then I will be your sure tower.

You must know and you must see that this is surely the beginning of the times of sorrow. For men and women have become lovers of themselves. Men's hearts have become cold. And I must tell you, that many even among the elect, have been deceived.

For you have looked to a man who would lead you out of this present trouble, and yet many of you have followed him blindly. You look at the surface and some of the things that he does seem right. For what you fail to see is that he knows those things that are important to those who follow him. He knows that talking about the bible is important, and his stance upon the unborn child is something that touches your heart greatly. But in his heart his stance is to get more followers.

I want you to walk as wise men in this hour. For in the days ahead you will be tested in more ways. But through the testing comes even a greater anointing in Me. "

Stephen Hanson

WHAT DO YOU GIVE YOUR HOMAGE TO?

2/2/2020

9 They that make a graven image are all of them vanity, and their delectable things shall not profit. And they are their own witnesses; they see not nor know, that they may be ashamed. 10 Who hath formed a god, or molten a graven image that is profitable for nothing? 11 Behold, all his fellows shall be ashamed; and the workmen, they are of men. Let them all be gathered together; let them stand up; yet they shall fear, and they shall be ashamed together. 12 The smith with the tongs both worketh in the coals, and fashioneth it with hammers, and worketh it with the strength of his arms. Yea, he is hungry, and his strength faileth; he drinketh no water and is faint. 13 The carpenter stretcheth out his rule; he marketh it out with a line. He fitteth it with planes, and he marketh it out with the compass, and maketh it after the figure of a man, according to the beauty of a man, that it may remain in the house.14 He heweth him down cedars, and taketh the cypress and the oak, which he strengtheneth for himself among the trees of the forest. He planteth an ash, and the rain doth nourish it. 15 Then shall it be for a man to burn, for he will take thereof and warm himself. Yea, he kindleth it, and baketh bread; yea, he maketh a god, and worshipeth it; he maketh it a graven image, and falleth down thereto.16 He burneth part thereof in the fire; with part thereof he eateth flesh; he roasteth roast and is satisfied. Yea, he warmeth himself and saith, “Aha, I am warm; I have seen the fire.”17 And the residue thereof he maketh a god, even his graven image. He falleth down unto it and worshipeth it, and prayeth unto it and saith, “Deliver me, for thou art my god.” Isaiah 44

"The world has fallen into despair, for those who looked to a Savior before have now chosen other ones. What is your answer to the world's problems? What great philosophy will save you now? For some now wave the flag of patriotism thinking that that will save the nation's problems.

But others look to the past, and they dig up the ancient practices of Egypt. Some look to glorious statues and icons thinking that these will answer their prayers, but these are hollow and lifeless things.

What have you fashioned and made that you might give homage to? What great image do you give your reverence to? Surely, these will save you on that day. Ah, but you say, 'I do not pray to a statue for I know that these things are not alive.' But what do you give your time and purpose to? What have you set up in your mind as the forefront of your beliefs?

Consider this day what it is that you have set your heart and mind to do; for these are the things that you give your homage to."

FROM THE ORIGIN AND THROUGH THE MILLENNIA

1/18/2020

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Genesis 1

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.2 The same was in the beginning with God.3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. John 1

"What is the origin of the word of God? From whence did it come? Did it originate in the minds of men? Or was it ever there as the universe was, and yet before the beginning? You see it is said, that in the beginning was the word and it was with God, and it 'was' God. That creative force that brought forth the mountains and the trees was ever-present and yet is the very attribute of God. Before the creation of everything I AM.

One can tell from where the rain comes, for the storms have an origin, and those who study the weather can pin-point when a storm is coming. And yet no one has ever seen the wind, but only what it has caused. Likewise, no one has ever seen my Spirit, but it is manifested among my own.

Before the creation of this world and everything in it, I was ever-with the Father and we were ever-moving. And yet the time came when we sought out the creation of the world that you now see; and we rejoiced in our creation. But the time came when man fell. For sin entered into the heart of man and he was banished from the garden.

And now after all of those millennia the world has become more and more corrupt. For the wars upon this planet and the decay of the very earth around it, has brought about the ruin of that which it was originally designed for. And yet it saddens my Father and I that man has corrupted that which it was originally designed for.

But the time will come when everything that you now see will be done away with. Then there will be new heavens and a new earth, for the former things will not be remembered nor will they come to mind. But this will not happen until everything that is written down is accomplished.

Then those who are with Me will rejoice for their redemption draweth nigh; but you have many things to go through until that time. For the world is growing darker with each day, and yet the darkness has never understood the light.

These are the days that many of the prophets of old had looked into. These are the days that are rushing towards judgment. And yet my book has been opened up to all, and yet many are not aware of the times that we are living in. Many study and yet they do not know my Spirit.

Many strive to know what is happening in this hour, and there are many that question things, but some split hairs over trivial matters. In your search for the truth don't let your petty arguments cause you to lose the love of your brothers and sisters.

Many preach to be heard and many just want a following. But really all that matters is that you speak the truth in love.

What will do when the churches around you close down? For at some point in time you will gather together as the early Christians did in their homes, for they were forced to do these things in secret. For the world as you know it is changing every day, and yet I am drawing all men unto myself.

Find your place in my body and do the work that I've called you to do. Don't strive to be like someone else for you are unique in the way that I have made you. As far as it depends upon you, strive to be at peace with all men.

Put on the cloak of love and compassion and do not forsake the time for meeting with others. But know that those who worship Me in Spirit and in truth are the ones who will enter into my chamber. For there I will speak to you; there I will replenish and fill you up.

The race is not to the swift or to those who are strong, but as I have said, 'The rain falls upon the just and the unjust. So don't strive to be rich but be satisfied with what you have. For Godliness with contentment is great gain.

Learn to love the unlovely, and don't look down upon the poor. For you don't know what another day may bring. I AM able to keep you standing in all kinds of circumstances so don't give up the fight.

It is time to run the race with endurance. "

WHOSE REPORT ARE YOU GOING TO BELIEVE?

1/15/2020

17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. Isaiah 54

(There are many things that we are exposed to in this world and oftentimes, various darts and stones from the enemy and just life in general, come at us. But we can be assured that we can remain strong and even like that tree that is planted by the river, we can succeed and even flourish. Don't let the things of this life cause you to give up or to lose hope, for we have a Father who will enable us to triumph and continue. We have this inheritance. When we look at the waves of the sea as Peter did, then we will begin to sink, but if we trust and stand firm then we can remain calm no matter what comes our way.)

"What report are you going to believe, my people? When things come against you in this world, what or who will you end up believing? For when the arrows of the enemy are flung at you, you need not let them enter into your domain.

For have I not said that, 'If I am for you then who can be against you?' For many shall come against you, but if you have my word buried in your heart and you have a mind filled full of peace, then you shall stand upon the rock.

For in this world you shall have many trials and tribulations, but I shall deliver you out of all of them. When you stand upon my word then you truly shall be like that tree that is planted by the river. For when nations rise and fall, and when the mountains are cast into the sea, then you shall not be moved.

For even a ship that is tossed upon the seas if its rigging is strong and it is made out of strong material, will stay afloat. Be ye therefore like that ship.

For the waters may rage around you, and the seas may rise, but you can remain calm in any weather. "

Stephen Hanson

THE COLDNESS OF MEN'S HEARTS

1/11/2020

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. 6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Timothy 4

"There are cold days ahead but it won't be because of the temperature, for even though it is winter and it is cold outside, men's hearts will be cold. For you have entered into a time when the cold from men's indifference will cause there to be a steel-like indifference to those who are less unfortunate.

For in these days the line is being drawn, and it is separating those who care for the hurting and the lost, and those who would rather be consumed by the world's standards. There will be a stark difference seen between these two bands of people. And yet those who know Me will go onto greater feats of love and compassion towards the hurting and the lost.

But be careful not to flag your zeal as you do these things towards one another. For it is better that you do these things without others noticing what you are doing. For this is not unlike those who give their money to one another expecting others to notice what they are doing. "

Stephen Hanson

ELIJAH WAS FED BY THE RAVENS

1/4/2020

Now Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the settlers of Gilead, said to Ahab, “As the Lord, the God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, surely there shall be neither dew nor rain these years, except by my word.” 2 The word of the Lord came to him, saying, 3 “Go away from here and turn eastward, and hide yourself by the brook Cherith, which is east of the Jordan. 4 It shall be that you will drink of the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to provide for you there.” 5 So he went and did according to the word of the Lord, for he went and lived by the brook Cherith, which is 1 Kings 17
br> "Elijah rose up and he went to the brook and there I fed him and gave him water to drink. He was sustained there, and I gave the ravens to take care of him there. Should it be any surprise to you that I can sustain you in the wilderness?

Do you not know that I can take care of you? Do you not know that I can command the birds of the air to feed you and give you drink? For I AM sovereign over the earth and I take care of my own. Even though Elijah fled into the wilderness and left under circumstances that may have appeared to show a lack of courage, he was sustained by Me.

I will sustain my people in the days ahead. There will be miraculous intervention. Don't expect to be sustained always by usual circumstances. For am I not able to clothe the fields and care for the birds of the air? Who are you oh ye of little faith? For when the winds blow and the earth erupts, I will be there. I will guide you by my very hand.

Truly the winds will blow and this nation will fall into ruin, but on that day when everything else seems to fail I will be there for you. Do not let sudden destruction or impending fear cause you to lose your focus, but trust Me above all else. "
Stephen Hanson
