I HAVE MUCH TO TEACH MY PEOPLE
Nov. 27, 2004
(This prophetic word that is a "teaching word." There are issues and questions that we all have concerning the prophetic and the many words that we are hearing and reading about in this hour. We have questions about prophets. We have questions about when the Lord will return for His church. Through this word below, I believe that God is wanting to answer some of these questions of ours. We perhaps have set ideas and concepts that we have carried with us for quite awhile concerning some of these things. May we be open to hear what the Spirit is wanting to tell us and teach us in this hour. May we go onto maturity and onto solid food rather than continuing to be satisfied with just milk. )
"Now, brothers about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord wil come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, 'Peace and safety.' destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape." 1 Thess. 5:1-3
"We have much to say about this, but is hard to explain because you are slow to learn. In fact, though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you the elementary truths of God's word all over again. You need milk, not solid food! Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinquished good from evil." Heb. 5:1-14
MT 24:32 "Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. [33] Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. [34] I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. [35] Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
"Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered to him, we ask you, brothers, not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by some prophecy, report or letter supposed to have come from us, saying that the day of the Lord has already come." 2 Thess. 2:12
What if anything, can be done to avert the events that are to come upon this earth? Can anything be done to change the prophetic time table? Is prophecy conditional or is it written down so that nothing can keep it from happening as it was predicted? I tell you that my word is infallible and nothing can keep it from happening as it has been predicted. But those that speak for Me are not infallible. The word that they speak, while coming from Me, can be averted. This means that through the prayers of the saints events are conditional. This means that circumstances are conditional upon the heart conditions of people. A message may have many ways of being understood. There is more than one level to a prophetic word. Look to my word and the message that was given to the seven churches. The apostle John was given a message to the seven churches that were present at that time in history. But these churches also represent spiritual conditions. On an even deeper level, these seven churches also speak to individuals. Are you luke warm as a believer or is there an open door waiting for you in your life? There have been many abuses of the prophetic word that has been given to individuals. But I tell you, there have also been many abuses from those who have not received the prophetic words that have been given. You are not to be as children any more. You are to grow up unto the head which is my Son, Christ Jesus. Let there not be many disputes among you. While it is good to test the words that are given, it is not good to analyze things to death. It is good to test the message, but it is not good to harangue the individual. Be as mature men and women and not as babes in your understanding. Broaden your views of prophecy. Develop an intimate relationship with Me and my word, and then you will be better able to judge these things. I have said that there are dark things coming upon the earth. These things are written down in my word. I have said when they say, 'Peace, peace, then sudden destruction will come upon them. ' I tell you to be aware when people say these things. The purpose of many of the warnings that I have sent out is not to instill fear in my people, but to prepare them and to warn them for what is to come. These are the last days that are mentioned in my word. Do not try to figure out the days or the months, or even the year that I am to come back. I have said that of that season you will have no need for anyone to tell you about it, for it will be plain to your eyes. I have also said that when the fig tree's leaves become tender then you know that the time is near. I tell you that this generation began with the birth of Israel as a nation in 1967. A generation lasts for forty years. I have also said that one year is as a thousand years with Me. So, having said this, you know that the time is very near. Do not try and figure out the exact times and dates, but be ready; for you know not what time your bridegroom will return. Listen to my apostles and prophets. Compare what they have to say with what is in my word. Do not become stirred-up by certain prophecies, but weigh them and seek a balanced approach. There is much that my church still has to learn. I will continue to warn and to teach my people, but you must be as mature men and women and not babes. "

A KING WILL ARISE
Nov. 24, 2004
"The king will do as he pleases. He will exalt and magnify himself above every god and will say unheard of things against the God of gods. Dan. 11:35
He will attack the mightiest fortresses with the help of a foreign god and will greatly honor those who acknowledge him. He will make them rulers over many people and will distribute the land at a price. " Dan. 11: 39 "He will also invade the beautiful Land. " 11: 41
I tell you that the day is coming when men will look to the sky and wonder where their hope is coming from. For the days are hastening forward to my soon return. There are new developments that are coming to the promised land area. For as I have said, with the passing of Yassar Arafat, new things are coming. For he had a policy to gain possession of Palestines land. For his era has ended and with it, many things will be left behind. But what things will be new developments? What leaders will come to the land and propose their new polices? I tell you that a leader will arise, and it will not be long before he is upon the scene. He will take all things unto himself. He will be a military leader like no one before. He will lift himself up and set himself up on the highest place. The faith of his predecessors he will leave behind. He will descecrate the holy places. He will invade many lands but in the beginning he will promise peace, but peace will be far from his campaign. He will invade the promised land and will promise many his favor. "
"These days will come and you will know of them in the near future."

"THE RED HORSE"
Nov. 20, 2004
"When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other. To him was given a large sword. " Rev. 6:3-4
"How awful that day will be! None will be like it. It will be a time of trouble for Jacob, but he will be saved out of it." Jer. 30:7
"This area in which you live is "on safe ground." The time will come when America will be attacked. Those things that many are planning to prevent these things from happening will fail. For plans are being made by those who wish that America would be abolished. I tell you that difficult days are ahead. These days will begin during the next year. For surely, you will be attacked and others will enter into another war with you. Those whose hearts are true to Me will be saved. Jacob's Trouble will begin soon after these things. "
"I will save my people and I will be there in times of trouble. Those who run to Me will be on safe ground but those who continue to shut their ears to Me will be in for trouble. I tell you that the red horse has come and will continue to ride upon the land."

"FOCUS ON THE HOLY LAND"
Nov. 13, 2004
Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death and you will be hated by all nations because of me. Matt. 24: 9
Now learn this lesson from the fig tree. As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. Matt. 24: 32-33
I am the God of the past, present, and future. I am involved in the affairs of man. I am there in all of the dealings that you have in this life. Over the last few years there has been a movement afoot. It is a movement that would take all of your rights and privileges away. It is an attempt to take my place out of your life. It is an attempt to put government at the place of God. I tell you that there is a secret society at work attempting to do these things. What can be done, and how can these things be abolished? They will not be entirely abolished for the time reaches forward to the prophetic table that underlines the events that will take place. For you will be hated by others and handed over to the courts. I have spoken of the fig tree and how when its branches get tender that it is soon time. I tell you that that time is approaching. The death of Yassar Arafat is a sign of some new developments in that land. For unrest will take precedence over national security. When you see a new leader come to the forefront then the prophetic timetable will begin there. There is much that is centered on the Holy Land. For over the centuries Israel has been my promised land, but when it is invaded then you will know that these things are taking place.

"SOON AND COMING SIGNS"
Nov. 7, 2004
"For it is time for judgment to begin with the family of God; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God?" 1 Pe. 4:17
"I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. " Matt. 24: 34
"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God...." 2 Tim. 1-4
I tell you that the time is coming when men's hearts will fail them because of the things that are coming upon the earth, but those who are strong will shine like the stars in the heavens. You have heard that wars are coming, I am telling you that a great war is coming. I tell you that many in churches now do not believe that I am coming soon. They follow a prescribed belief that it is way off in the future. I have said that this is that last generation. Many have spoken of the birth pangs that have come upon the earth. I tell you that many have already come, but there is more yet to come. Some know that I come back to judge my church first. Know this: That I have been judging my church first over the last few years. I tell you that now it is time to begin judgment upon the earth. So what is the judgment that will come upon the earth? What are the impending signs that judgment has begun? You will see them because it will be so plain to your eyes. The whole earth will see these signs because of the media coverage of these events. The signs of wickedness will continue. Mothers will give-up their babies to trash collectors. Politics will take precedence over ethics. Riots will form-out in many of the streets of your major cities. The love of many will wax cold. There will be signs in the heavens and on the earth below. You will witness these signs as they flash across your TV screens. These signs will come and they will usher in the return of my Son Jesus Christ. "

"JUDGMENT IS ABOUT TO FALL"
Oct. 30, 2004
"The tumult will resound to the ends of the earth, for the Lord will bring charges against the nations; he will bring judgment on all mankind and put the wicked to the sword, " declares the Lord. Jer. 25: 31
"I tell you that I am the Lord of everything and because I am the Lord of the universe, that judgment is about to fall. Judgment is coming; it has come to the household of God first, but now it is extending to nations, kingdoms, and to those who are living in sin. My hammer will fall and it will tear to pieces those things that are not of Me."
"I tell you that judgment is coming to the nation of America. There are cities that will be attacked. Behold...an outside force comes, and it extends its arm upon your land. Where will you run to when the onslaught comes? I have said that the hedge of protection was being removed. No longer is safety to be found apart from Me. But there is a tower, there is a rock and a fortress you can run to."
"I tell you that the time is coming when entire cities will be laid waste by bombs and nuclear holocost. People will run in desperation to find places of safety. I have had some prepare places of safety for that time to come--for I will always prepare a way out for my servants."
"I have said again and again, that these things are coming. Who are those who would heed these things and prepare for them?

BLESSED IS HE WHO DOES NOT GIVE INTO THE BEAST
Oct. 17, 2004
There is no rest day o r night for those who worship the beast and his image, or for anyone who receives the mark of his name. This calls for patient endurance on the part of the saints who obey Gods commandments and remain faithful to Jesus. Rev. 14: 11-12
(At the beginning of this prophetic word, I looked overhead and noticed that there were three ravens that flew overhead. Each time I noticed them, and heard the flap of their wings as they soared above me and went off into the distance beyond the school that I live nearby. I believe that each of these ravens symbolizes the forces of evil as they have begun their onslaught in the heavenly places.)
I say that the era that many of you are living in is an era that specifies the end of all things. Look at the events that are around you, and tell Me, those of you who think otherwise. This is a time when many will look to other forms of religion. This is a time when many will fall from the faith. This is a time when it calls for deep faith and endurance. Behold
. evil encircles round about you. The forces of evil plan to unleash all of their fury. This time marks the beginning of these onslaughts. But remember that He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. You were born for such a time as this, and you will be seen through these times. These things will mark the season that you are entering into, and they will follow you the next few years. Remember that I've told you that that figure would arise who exalts himself. The number that speaks of him also corresponds with a time frame. But I will not leave you comfortless. Blessed is he who does not give into the beast, but follows my spirit in these days.

THE WAR IN IRAQ WILL CHANGE INTO ANOTHER WAR
Oct. 9. 2004
2 "Son of man, speak to your countrymen and say to them: 'When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman, 3 and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people, 4 then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not take warning and the sword comes and takes his life, his blood will be on his own head. Ezekiel 33:2-4
This world is headed for a big change. I tell you that the war in Iraq will be transformed into a war with someone else. Those who have watched are also those who have prepared. I tell you that North Korea is building an arsenal, and they are also in league with China. The war on terrorism is not a war that one can win as easily as one might think. It involves the entire world. br>
Do you think America that you are above these things? I tell you that you take many of your freedoms for granted. I say, beware, those who are on the coastlines. I say, beware those who are in large metropolitan cities. Can all your areas be checked, and can all your surveillances stop these things? When all your eyes are upon the election, then plans are being made. Plans are being made, and much is being done in secret. Those things that have been prophesied and spoken of will soon come to pass. This is that generation that will see all these things come to pass. I speak these things to warn you, and not to have fear enter into your heart.

I OWN THE CATTLE ON A THOUSAND HILLS
Oct. 2, 2004
PS 50:10 for every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills. 11: I know every bird in the mountains, and the creatures of the field are mine. 12: If I were hungry I would not tell you,for the world is mine, and all that is in it.
JER 23. [28] Let the prophet who has a dream tell his dream, but let the one who has my word speak it faithfully. For what has straw to do with grain?" declares the LORD. [29] "Is not my word like fire," declares the LORD, "and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?
1CO 2:6 We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.
There is nothing that I cannot do, says the Lord. From the rising of the sun to its setting, I am there to aid my servants. Many in this hour are in need of basic things. I tell you that I own the sheep and cattle on a thousand hills. Cannot I do even more for you? I say these things to you because the time is rapidly approaching when the money in the government system will become scarce. Some have hoarded-up money for that day. Some have put their stock in other things. I tell you that I will take care of my own.
Which voices will you listen to in this hour? There are many voices in this hour that are vying for your attention. You have Alan Greenspan who much of the nation follows in this matter, but who knows the bottom line?
What are your priorities, and where are your resources spent? Where is most of your time spent? I tell you that most of the world is in an information age. You are ever increasing in information but lacking in wisdom.
Behold, I come quickly, and my recompense is in my hand. Who is that servant who I can trust with my word? Who is that one whose word is burning in their heart? Behold, the wisdom of this age is foolishness to Me. Seek those things that are at my right hand and all these things will be added unto you.

THIS IS THE HOUR
Sept 25, 2004
ISA 42:9 See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you."
2TI 3:1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. [2] People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, [3] without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, [4] treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God-- [5] having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.
DA 11:31 "His armed forces will rise up to desecrate the temple fortress and will abolish the daily sacrifice. Then they will set up the abomination that causes desolation. [32] With flattery he will corrupt those who have violated the covenant, but the people who know their God will firmly resist him.
This world in which you are living will changebehold, all things will be made new. Behold
the times are changing, says the Lord. This season that you are about to enter into will manifest those things that signify the last days.
What are those new things that you say? Be aware that the love of many will wax cold. Be aware that men and women will exchange evil for good. Be aware that false prophets and teachers will abound in this hour. These things will abound, and yet, the end is not quite yet here. For when you see the sacrifice being made into an unholy thing then you will know that you are in the middle of these things.
What will you do in this hour to combat these things? This is the hour to rise-up and stand against the evil. When darkness is declared as light then someone needs to show them the way. This is the hour to say what is true.

"BE AS SHINING STARS IN THE MIDST OF A WICKED GENERATION"
Sept. 18, 2004
MT 16:2 He replied, "When evening comes, you say, `It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,' [3] and in the morning, `Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. [4] A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah." Jesus then left them and went away.
1CH 12:32 men of Issachar, who understood the times and knew what Israel should do--200 chiefs, with all their relatives under their command;
[3] Those who are wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness, like the stars for ever and ever. Dan. 12
"I will make my people into shining stars in these last days. I tell you that you need to be shining because the darkness will increase because the enemy of your souls is on the rampage. But I tell you that he will not prevail. I tell you that the number of my people may diminish, but those who remain true unto Me will grow unto great stature. These next few months will mark the end of days. "
"Watch the sky, for when you look at it, you know when a storm is coming. I tell you that many know how to read the signs in the sky, but few can read the times in which we are living. May you be like the sons of Issachar who knew these times. The times and the seasons are in my hands. But just as Summer changes into Fall so shall the spiritual season change as well. This coming season will mark the beginning of the prophetic time table. For it will lay out the designs that are written down in my prophetic word. For it will bring forth a war that the United States will be thrust into, and then that man who will promise many things will come upon the scene. "
"Be as shining stars in the midst of a wicked generation. "

This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is mans number. His number is 666. Rev. 13::18
Out of the east an emissary is coming. Clothed in white he comes, but he is disguised.I tell you that it wont be long before the son of perdition comes upon the scene. When the world is at unrest and looking for a leader, then he will come. I tell you that the daysare hastening forward to these events. He will be looked upon as a new world leader. This is the white horse that is mentioned in Revelation that is bent on conquest. I tell you that many will fall in the day that they give allegiance to him. When the next war erupts, then soon afterwards he will make himself known. I tell you that you have no more than a few more years before everything is accomplished.
