"DO YOU TRULY THINK THAT I AM GOING TO BLESS THIS NATION?"



4/22/17
Then he who hears the sound of the trumpet and does not take warning, and a sword comes and takes him away, his blood will be on his own head. Ezekiel 33:4

"Do you truly think that I Am going to bless this nation? Do you think that I am going to reward those who continue to ignore the warnings that have been going out for years?

This nation will be brought to its knees. The plans that some have made, to make this nation great, will fall to the ground in humiliation. For your sins and your arrogance will have caught-up with you on that day.

The nation will be split in two. The orders will be given to my angel that sits upon the heights of your nation. For too long you have ignored the warnings from my true prophets.

(The Spirit of the Lord showed me a scene of the capitol. People were fleeing as the buildings were collapsing all around them. Above, were seen various planes that were dropping bombs. Everything was in a state of panic and confusion. And then the earth opened up, and a huge crack was seen as some fell into it, and yet some were able to reach the edge and find safety.)

The government will fail on that day. The pillars and the entire structure of the capitol will crumble. Men and women will flee so that the debris will not hit them.

And that great rift will open. There many will fall into it. Some will climb to safety. And yet, I have some who know of these things. They have prepared for those days that are coming. They know of the outcome, and they know of the things that are coming.

Woe to those who are great in their own strength. Woe to those who think that their money will save them on that day."

BE NOT SOON SHAKEN OR TROUBLED



4/8/17

2 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.(2 Thess. 2)

""Keep things in perspective, my people. Don’t look at all of the events around you. Surely, you are living in dangerous times--surely, the land that you are living in, is now under judgment. Just as the pieces on a chess board are being moved into different positions, so the events being played out with the Great Bear, Syria, and America all have their place in these movements. For wisdom and discernment is key for you; as these movements take on a greater form, know that the players involved are part of the end-time scheme. A joining of forces is soon to happen. Plans are being made in secret. Don’t rush into sudden assumptions concerning these recent events; for there are many more events to take place.
As I have said in my word, ‘Don’t become easily unsettled by some prophecy or event, that the day of the Lord has arrived.’ 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.

For these are the days of deceit; these are the days of lies. The enemy has infiltrated the very leaders of your White House. Deceit has always been involved in this world; and yet now it has become so pronounced and so subtle that many even among my elect, aren’t even aware of the enemy’s tactics.

You so easily follow after patriotism. You follow after the flag that has flown, and the stars and stripes have blinded you. For they were woven to protect you even from the enemy within. "

WHEN BLACK IS DECLARED AS WHITE, AND GOOD IS DECLARED AS EVIL, THEN ONE EASILY HAS THEIR VISION CLOUDED



4/2/17


Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, and the pride of thine heart, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill: though thou shouldest make thy nest as high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith the Lord. Jeremiah 49:16

"Be still before Me...For the mountains will quake, the seas will roll, and the great and terrible day of the Lord will come.

But know that there is still much that is to be done. For in these days there is much confusion. In these days there is much in-fighting, even amongst the brethren.

When two stand together they are stronger than just one. Find those among you that can agree together, for the enemy is in the business of trying to divide my people.

An army divided cannot fight. When some say, 'I am with this one, or I am with that one, you will not stand as one.

For I tell you, that there are dark days ahead for this nation. Your entire system of government is soon to topple. The deceit and the lies run deeper than you may know. Those who claim to know Me are but pawns in an insidious game.

For when black is declared as white, and good is declared as evil, then one easily has their vision clouded. And some look for alternative news sites, and pretend that they have the truth. I tell you that those who claim to know the truth are the most deceived."

THE BULL MADE OUT OF STONE



3/24/17

32 And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. 5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, Tomorrow is a feast to the Lord. 6 And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.Ex. 32

(The Lord showed me a picture of a bull that was made of stone. It had a bluish tint to it. All kinds of people were decorating it with various types of flowers, as if commemorating it for display. I saw that the bull was very important to the people, and they worshiped it, as they would a god. )

The Holy Spirit told me that the bull represented Wall Street and big business in the U.S.
"Man has worshiped the bull. Man has given homage to him. In ancient times, the children of Israel smelt down the gold, and made a golden calf; and now that calf is honored more than I am.

You are falling oh land, that once was the land of the free and the home of the brave. For now you honor the bull. For you have strayed far; you have gone far from the original purpose I had for you.

You honor the gods of gold and silver more than Me. Those running your government now are a prime example of this. For you say that you honor Me with your lips, but your heart is far from Me.

For you cannot serve God and mammon both. Those who do this will lead the United States in the wrong direction. The bull is raging and he will run rampant all over the land. “

WHY TOIL FOR THAT WHICH WILL NOT SUSTAIN YOU?



3/19/17

7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, 8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: 9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. 10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. 11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) Hebrews 3

Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Isaiah 55:2

"Today when you hear my voice don't harden it as they did in the wilderness. For I would have you to enter into my rest. For it is time that many of my own, would come to know Me; and to know that there are times of refreshing and rest.

Why do you toil for that which will not sustain you? Why do work for the bread that would not give you everlasting life? You toil and toil, and work your days in the dust, and yet, I have given you life everlasting.

It was a curse put on man in the beginning; but now I have lifted that curse. Truly, all must work to earn a living, but the bread that you eat from your labors will not sustain your immortal soul. For I AM the bread of life. I was broken and given to you. "

REJOICING IN JUDGMENT



3/11/17

13 For the judgment is merciless to one who has not shown mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment.James 2:13

>
"For you see, people rejoice in a promise that is given. Most do not rejoice when judgment is coming. Why would some rejoice in these things and others would not?

It is because very few know why I do these things. For my intention is to bring man to a place of repentance. But man only sees the outcome from his point of view. Very few of my own long for Me to bring judgment upon the earth.

When I come back will I find faith upon the earth? Many of you believe, but very few truly know Me in my judgment. For judgment is not a wrecking ball, but rather, it is done in mercy. And mercy triumphs over judgment.

Why would I destroy a land never giving people a chance to repent? Why would I destroy a people who have rebelled against Me constantly, and yet, their heart is still searching for the truth?

I extend my arm to all who would listen to Me; my gift is freely given. It is a land that is founded by your fathers, and yet, you have strayed far from my purposes. The smoke and the stench of it, has long been reaching my throne. I have grown weary and tired of waiting upon you to turn from your evil ways. The safety net has been lifted."

THE DAYS AHEAD



3/8/17

26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him! Matt. 8

"Set your guard as a watch upon your heart and home. For many strangers come and go. They come attempting to infiltrate and rid your home of peace. And yet, I the Lord, give you weapons to wage against the enemy.

These are the days of uncertainty for many. These are the days of turmoil and unrest. And yet I would say that I can give you rest. I can give you rest in the midst of the storm. I calmed the sea when my disciples were in the boat. They were fearful of the storms and the waves, but I told them to look to Me and not to the water.

Dark days are ahead for this nation. It is set in motion---the wheels are turning, and in time the very things spoken, concerning the events leading up to the last days, will come. A pendulum is swinging, and it is chiming out the hours. The very walls of justice will erupt. Confusion and calamity is seen upon the very steps of the White House.

Those very laws and ordinances that were set in your constitution will be torn asunder. For a decree will be sent out and the words of it, will set in motion a takeover of the land.

But you my children, are not to fear, for everything that has and will be done, is not the finished work. For I have a plan to rescue many in the coming months and years. For when the darkness comes my light sheds even more brightly.

After the calamity of those days, many will have found resources in the wilderness. There will be a banding together of my own. The strength and wisdom from on high, will be given to many in that hour. And then in that hour, even a little child will grow up to see my return."

TRAIN YOUR SPIRITS



4/4/17

Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. Gen. 3:1

15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Tim. 2:1

"The signs are everywhere about my soon coming back. But I tell you that the war between darkness and the light, will continue and intensify in the coming days.

For the enemy is pulling out everything in his arsenal; he knows that his time is short. He has his feelers and tentacles into the forms of government. He would attempt to infiltrate every aspect of society. For he has whispered into the minds of many in high places, and many don't know his voice, and have thought that it comes from a wise counselor.

But as been told, the serpent was the most subtle of all creatures. For thousands of years he has spread his darkness and deceit. He attempts to twist the truth. Even those who once knew Me, have now fallen into his lies.

But you, those who know Me well, train your spirits to know the difference. Let the word of truth sink deeply into your spirit. Study to show yourself as a workman, who knows my word.

Then when the lies come, you will recognize them. "

Stephen A. Hanson

MANY WILL HAVE LEFT THE CITIES



2/26/17

The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof. Jeremiah 51:42

The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake. 2 And he said, The Lord will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither. Amos 1

(This is a prophetic theme that the Lord has told me perhaps 15-20 times over the last 10 or more years. These things will come in time; perhaps not yet for a few years, but it will come. All of this is not meant to incite fear, but that we know of it and prepared when the time comes.)

"I tell you that the time will come when many will leave the cities. They will look for shelter amid the wastelands. For the land will have been seized. Those in power from another land, will have taken over your land. They will have found weakness in your arsenal.

The nation will have reeled back and forth like a drunken man. It has been in the planning for many years; your military leaders have known about this plan for a long time. It will come when the land is divided.

It will come when you're not prepared for it. It will come when the land will have opened-up. For that great rift will divide the land in half. The water will flow, and the geographical appearance of your land will have changed. And yet many of my 'true prophets' know of these things. You have been warned, and yet many don't know how to prepare. For, that time will come, and it will bring about a whirlwind.

The nation will be held within a balance. And yet there will be pockets of people, who stand as 'lights' to the darkness of those days; and I will save many from the turmoil---I will save many from the pockets of despair.

Woe to those who promise of golden days to come. Woe to those who say that all is well. Woe to those who have put their strength in military might. But blessed are those who put their faith and trust in Me. I will save many through the tribulations that are coming. I will raise up an ensign to the people on that day.

You will find rivers of living water in the deserts. And after the onslaught of those days, I will heal the land. Blessed are those who are given strength through that hour. Blessed are those who see beyond the turmoil. "

THE VALLEY OF VISION



2/25/17

22 The burden of the valley of vision. What aileth thee now, that thou art wholly gone up to the housetops? 2 Thou that art full of stirs, a tumultuous city, joyous city: thy slain men are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle.3 All thy rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers: all that are found in thee are bound together, which have fled from far.4 Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labour not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.5 For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord God of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains. Isaiah 22

"I tell you it is time....it is time to come into the valley of vision. For many think that they see but they see not. They say to the prophets and the seers, 'Tell us good things.' And yet, what would you see or hear? Surely there are things that trouble you.

And yet the most troubling thing is not that there is so much evil and darkness around you. The real problem is that many of my prophets aren't hearing clearly from Me. They pretend to know; they say that they have heard from Me, and yet they have not.

You will be left to your own devices in the coming months. You will be searching for Me, and you will only hear the faint whisperings of your own mind. "

Stephen A. Hanson

THIS IS THE WAY, WALK YE IN IT



2/16/17
The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib: but Israel doth not know, my people doth not consider. Isaiah 1:3

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

"Many of my people in this world are going without a light before them.I have said that I would shed my light abroad, and some walk a foggy trail in front of them. Am I not the light of the world? Has my light not overcome the darkness? You follow this principle or that one, you make plans for tomorrow, but you do not know what tomorrow will bring.

And yet I have said in my word, this is the way walk ye in it. So many of you are like a ship without a rudder. So many of you are like a horse without a bridle. Would that your eyes were enlightened on which way to go. You are without true shepherds. You are without true guides.

Of what should I compare this generation? You are as the blind being led by the blind. I have provided a way for each of you through my Son Jesus. He paid the price for all; and yet He came to His own and His own received him not. He is not only the Good Shepherd. He is not only the Bread of Life. He is not only the Bright and Morning Star. He is the Stone that the builders rejected. He is the Rose of Sharon. And yet, with all of these names and more, He can be that path leading to eternal life. And that very path travels out in front of you. I would show you the way and give you light unto that road, but you must be able to hear my voice.

For in the coming days you will be brought through many things. Your world at times may appear to be turned upside down, but know that I hold the key to the door in front of you. For some, that door has been closed for a time. But now it will be opened up unto you. Then when that door is opened, you will be able to behold the door in front of you better. "

"GREED AND POWER WILL CAUSE YOU TO IMPLODE WITHIN



2/12/17
2 Peter 2:19 - While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.

"This nation that was once formed on freedom, will soon be thrust into a war even within its own citizens. For the war that you fight within your own borders, will be your own undoing.

You fight for this and you fight for that, but you fight against a system that will be your own undoing. There is corruption of the highest order--and greed and power will cause you to implode within.

You cite Christian principles, but your heart is filled full of greed. In the long run, the people will win out. For a government is to be 'by the people and for the people.'

For a Mac Truck would run over everything that is in its way. It doesn't care about the weak or those that are in the way. It would run rampant over this and that. It doesn't matter of the outcome, as long as it gets its way. "

Stephen Hanson

THE SCALES OF JUSTICE



2/4/17

who executes justice for the orphan and the widow, and loves the resident alien, giving them food and clothing Deut. 10:18Surely, the Lord will do justice for his people; on his servants he will have pity. When he sees their strength is gone, and neither bond nor free is left, Deut. 32:36 listen in heaven; act and judge your servants. Condemn the wicked, requiting their ways; acquit the just, rewarding their justice. I Kings 8:3

Justice: 1.the quality of being just; righteousness, equitableness, or moral rightness: to uphold the justice of a cause. 2.rightfulness or lawfulness, as of a claim or title; justness of ground or reason:to complain with justice.3.the moral principle determining just conduct. 4.conformity to this principle, as manifested in conduct; just conduct, dealing, or treatment. 5.the administering of deserved punishment or reward. 6.the maintenance or administration of what is just by law, as by judicial or other proceedings: a court of justice.7.judgment of persons or causes by judicial process:to administer justice in a community.

"Many are marching to the orders of a 'king.' It is a king who does things his own way. For my ways are not your ways, says the Lord. My ways follow not the patterns of man. The rules followed by man are not my rules. My ways are the ways of justice----and right now the scales of justice have been turned upside down.

Justice in one hand and mercy in the other, are the ways of my kingdom. But a government without mercy is left to its own devices. For deceit and darkness come in many colors. What appears to be right and true, easily gets bent to serve only a few. "

The prophet Micah tells us in just a few words, how we should walk in this world:

He hath shown thee, O man, what is good: and what doth the Lord require of thee but to do justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Micah 6:8

And yet, how do we walk in a world where justice is seldom found? How do we deal with others around us when we are treated wrongly, and unjustly? God tells us that we must love mercy, and that we must walk humbly before Him. In order to love mercy, one must first have experienced mercy in their own lives. We are all sinners, and don't deserve God's mercy to us, and yet it is extended. But when we continually treat others without mercy, then that same mercy will not be shown to us, but rather the cold hand of justice without mercy.

But our land and world seldom displays true justice. Solomon prayed for wisdom and it was granted to him by the Lord, and his kingdom was blessed. But we won't experience true justice or mercy until the King of Kings rules in the new kingdom. Then night will be turned into everlasting day, and sorrow will have been wiped off the face of the globe. Then we not even remember a world that we once lived in that was pitiful in its attempt to show justice and mercy.

“AN EAGLE AS MIGHTY AS HE MAY BE CAN SURELY FALL”



1/30/17
4 And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. 5 And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. 6 And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. Gen. 11

When all seems well is when you need to be concerned. ‘For not all that glitters is gold.’ The eagle, the patriotic symbol of the land, is showing its power and influence, but even as it soars, it will come into dark territory.

Eagles are capable of flying in all kinds of weather, and they are carried away by the wind currents, but they also can fall prey to many dangers. You are established as the land of the free and the home of the brave, but don’t let your patriotism keep you from doing these things. Surely, when everything seems to be going as planned, is when disruption can come.

For I am not looking for a nation to be patriotic, but rather for looking out for the poor and disadvantaged. For those are the signs of a great nation. You who are next to the waters---whose great statue welcomes all to come, remember the principles that first formed your land.

For it is so easy to drift…It is so easy to drift into self-serving principles. For when you only think of the welfare of yourselves, is when you’ve lost your allegiance to Me.

You can build-up your bulwarks---you can fortify your walls, but a single stone or rock, if it is loose, can cause it to fall. Structures and walls are not just to keep you in, but they can also become a prison. Many have prisons of their own making. What you use to exclude others can also keep you confined.

For prisons are not just made with the materials of this earth. They also come in the form of prejudice and racism. And when these prisons become evident, their bars and structures can be shown to all.

A great tower was built many thousand years ago. It reached to the skies. But because they thought they were so great, I caused them to fall.

Be not great in yourselves; be great in how you show your love for the hurting and the lost. Then you will be a beacon on a hill. Then you will be a shining light to all that would see you. But if not, then your greatness will be taken away from you, and you will be left like Rome. For all that is left of them is the memory of their greatness.”

Stephen Hanson

THE RUDDER IS NOT BEING MOVED BY MY HAND



1/25/17
Look at the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by strong winds, are still directed by a very small rudder wherever the inclination of the pilot desires. James 3:4

"How many of you look to Me--? How many of you look to Me during this time? You have a new direction for America, and you rejoice because of these things. But what are the conditions that are being cast? What are the sacrifices that you are making? The directions of a ship are changing its course, but the rudder is not being moved by my hand.

A ship would sail upon the ocean, and the waves would carry it safely home. The wind would drive its sails, and the sea would roar back and forth. The sea foam would rise and fall around the bulwark of its frame; and many a ship has been lost at sea because of the storms that it has entered into.

But what is the condition of the ship that you are now sailing upon? It has entered a new direction, but I AM NOT at the helm. The policies would "appear to be my own," but they are self-directed and not my own. "
