I keep trying to process the frightening things to come with ALL of the prophetic words out there that indicate (if it indeed is Him) that we’ll be shielded, in a “cleft-of-the-rock” sort of way. It’s all over the place, in prophetic circles.

Came upon this at Faith Tabernacle, posted 5/22:

JASON KRUSE
Texas

5/22/10

The Lord is saying to His body, “I am bringing refreshing to you, My loved ones. I am pouring out a time of refreshing, over the next six weeks. You will have and abundance of peace and a great sense of rest, as you go about your daily endeavours. You will sleep soundly and sweetly. You will be in tune to what I have to say to you, directly. You will not need to go to this person or that person. You will be able to hear Me, for yourself. I am awakening My whole body, to My voice, and each and every true believer will have an encounter with Me. I will not leave you bereft. I will come and visit you and comfort you, says the Lord. I will uphold you with My righteous right hand, and you will find that I truly am, the Glory and the Lifter of your head.”

“... a time of refreshing, over the next six weeks.”

Hmm, six weeks. Six weeks. Raise your hands if you’re reading between the lines here....

Anyway, they are very consistant in that He will pour out His Spirit like turbocharged Pentecost. Stands to reason, in that His objective is always to save as many souls from eternal death as possible.

I also note that, in scripture, it seems that whenever the Lord does something REALLY big, it is preceeded by a long period of “it-seems-like-the-Lord-is-silent,” then BANG, He strikes back. Indeed, it seems as though the enemy has run roughshod over the earth with little opposition from God, the past forty-fifty years or so.

At post 72, there’s a link. Here’s an excerpt from that:

= = =

... Our spirits live and grow in our human bodies much like the chick develops inside the egg. If it were possible for the chick to be told that a great world waits beyond its shell, that this world is filled with fruits and flowers, rivers and great mountains, and that its own mother is also there waiting for it to be set free and to experience this splendor, the chick could still neither comprehend nor believe it.

Even if one explained that its feathers and wings and eyes were developing so that it could fly and see, still it would not be able to believe it, nor would any proof be possible, until it broke through its shell.

In the same way, there are many people who cannot comprehend the spiritual life or the existence of God because they cannot see beyond the confines of their bodily sense. Their thoughts – like delicate wings – cannot yet carry them beyond the narrow confines of logic.

Their weak eyes cannot yet make out those eternal treasures that God has prepared for his children.

The only condition necessary for us to break out of our material limitations and attain spiritual life is that we accept the life-giving warmth of God’s spirit, just as the chick receives its mother’s warmth.

Without that warmth, we will not take on the nature of the Spirit and we may die without ever hatching out of this material body.

We have been endowed with spiritual senses so that we can feel and enjoy God’s presence.

But the influence of irreverence and sin deadens these senses till we are no longer able to see beyond ourselves, nor beyond the material world.

As long as we follow this path, we cannot believe that God exists, and so we starve ourselves until in the end we have committed spiritual suicide. Our end is total enslavement to the material world.

Seeker: If we cannot prove that God exists, then how can we ever know God or any spiritual truth?

Sadhu: God is the author of creation and provides all that is necessary for our wellbeing. If it were helpful or necessary for us to know God perfectly already now, then God would have provided the means to meet that need.

Quite the contrary, it is important for our own spiritual growth that we persevere in trying to know more of God. True and satisfying knowledge of anything is always the fruit of mental exertion and the exercise of our own consciousness.

God is infinite while we are finite. We can never fully comprehend the infinite, but we do have within us a spiritual sense that allows us to recognize and enjoy God’s presence. The ocean is vast beyond our imagining, and it would never be possible for a person to fathom it or take in all its great treasures.

But with the tip of our tongues we can recognize at once that the ocean is salty.

We have not understood even a fraction of all there is to know about the ocean, but with our sense of taste we can experience its essence.

In the end, how can we expect to have full knowledge of the creator, when even our knowledge of created things is limited? We know a little about the physical characteristics of the created world, but we know next to nothing about the unseen spiritual world.

Indeed, we know next to nothing about our own spiritual lives. If we had complete knowledge of our own spiritual nature, then perhaps we would be capable of knowing the nature of God, for we were created in his image.

From the moment of birth, every child loves its mother dearly in its own way, but the child cannot know and love the mother as the mother loves the child. With age, the child grows to know the mother better and to enjoy her company in new, fulfilling ways.

Our knowledge and age would have to be infinite if we were to truly comprehend God who is infinite.

But at every age and level of knowledge we can appreciate and enjoy some aspect of God’s presence. Why do we need to know more than this? As we grow spiritually, we will come to know more and more of God, but there is no need to be impatient.

Eternity stretches before us.

One day I saw a flower and began to contemplate its fragrance and beauty. As I thought more deeply, I recognized the creator of such wonders – not with my mortal eyes but with my spiritual eyes.

This filled my heart with joy, but my joy was still greater when I recognized that same creator at work within my own soul.

How wonderful is God, separate from creation and yet ever filling it with his glorious presence.

Seeker: Since we know so little about God’s nature, how is it even possible to recognize his divine presence?

Sadhu: Many people experience the Master’s presence without actually seeing him.

When we apply medicine drops to our eyes, we ...

THE RESTRAINER
Maurice Sklar

“And now you know WHAT IS RESTRAINING him (from being revealed at this time) (the antichrist); it is so that he may be manifested (revealed) in his own (appointed time). For the mystery of lawlessness (that hidden principle of rebellion against constituted authority) is already at work in the world, (BUT IS) RESTRAINED ONLY UNTIL HE (OR THAT) WHICH RESTRAINS IS TAKEN OUT OF THE WAY. And then the lawless one (the antichrist) will be revealed and the Lord Jesus will slay him with the breath of His mouth and bring him to an end by His appearing at His coming.”

2 Thessalonians 2:6- 8 (Amplified Bible)

Dear Beloved,

I always thought that it was the Holy Spirit that was restraining the evil in the earth and keeping the anti-Messiah – that wicked world dictator that will be empowered by Satan during the last seven years – from taking over everything. But, the Lord corrected me and said to me:

“If I took My Spirit out of the earth, then no one would be able to come to Me in the last time. But many millions of souls will cry out to me and be saved during the final seven years. But they will pay with their lives for their faith in Me. No one can come to Me unless the Holy Spirit draws them. No! It is not My Spirit that will be taken out of the earth. It is My Bride that will be taken out of the earth. Who is My Bride? It is only those that choose to love Me, walk with Me, obey Me, serve Me, and choose Me over all else right now. It is those that choose to be overcomers and will endure to the end. It is the prayers and the intercession of My Bride that is holding back the flood of evil and judgment soon to come upon the whole earth. It is to allow My grace to continue to reach out to the lost and the backslidden church just a little bit longer. It is not My will that any perish in hell.

I am now at the door! All is now ready! I am ready to come for My beautiful Bride! How I long for her! But, only the Father knows the precise day and hour of My appearing. First I must APPEAR to take My Bride away. Then, I must RETURN to this earth as KING OF KINGS. She will return with me. Time has run out. There will be no stopping the judgments much longer from coming like birth pangs upon the earth.

Nevertheless, tell My Bride that I have heard her cries, her prayers, and her intercession. I have seen her tears. It has restrained much that would have already happened. My grace is abundant in this final hour! How I weep for those that refuse to repent and come to Me now! My heart is broken for them, for I know the terrible evils coming upon them. Satan is now gathering his full armies to devour and destroy the nations of the earth. Only you, My precious Bride, are holding him back through your prayers…for this I am pleased.

Stay with Me in the place of prayer now! Nothing else matters. Take up the mantle of intercession and prayer as never before. Pray in the supernatural languages I have given you through the Holy Spirit and let ME pray through you. This is your highest calling! I am sweeping through this earth in a final call of revival that will rapidly end the time of grace to the nations. Do not waste the precious time I have given you. You can never recover it again in the eternities to come! Great is the reward for those that take hold of the horns of the altar and go to war to restrain the evil storm clouds on the horizon. Many millions of souls are at stake, even now, My Beloved!

The lines have been already drawn. I know who are Mine and who are not. All of heaven is now ready for the greatest party and celebration that has ever been in the eternities past! There is no more preparation for the Wedding Supper any longer. It is DONE! I am waiting to appear in the air to catch and take My Bride home. What a Wedding Day it will BE! But, Beloved, YOU must prepare yourself so that you can hear the call of the shofar. Many will not hear because they have lost their bridal veils and their crowns. Hold fast what I have given you. Do not let Satan steal your heart from Me.

These are events that will soon come that will signal your departure from this earth, My Beloved:

* I am taking Billy Graham home.

* War will soon erupt upon and all around Israel. She will be wounded, but not destroyed. But, all around her, whoever has cursed her from the house of Esau will be destroyed. Lebanon, Syria, Iran and others nations that have poked Me in the eye will experience the wrath of nuclear fire and destruction.

* If the President your nation has elected does not repent and change, I will continue to judge the United States concerning the attempts he has made to give up and divide My land and force Israel to divide Jerusalem. If He continues, I will divide America right down the middle. If he continues to put economic pressure on Israel, I will further collapse the economy of America. If he keeps encouraging and allowing terrorism to flourish, I will allow terrorism to destroy and wreak havoc in America. It is one hundred to one: I will see to it that one hundred times more comes upon America for what Israel experiences in this realm. I will judge America a thousand to one concerning any land that is taken from Israel and Jerusalem, just as it happened when you forced My people from their homes in Gaza and I responded with Hurricane Katrina. For every settler that has been or will be forced from their homes in Judea and Samaria, I will require one thousand homes in America to lose their homes. Since you forced Israel to “freeze” construction of homes, you housing markets have been “frozen” to the same degree – only a thousand homes to one.

* Concerning Iran: If America does not join in Israel in a preemptive attack upon Iran and Israel has to go it alone, America will experience nuclear attack through terrorism. You must attack with Israel now, or you will be attacked.

* Concerning sexual sin, homosexuality, pornography, abortion , molestation of children, and witchcraft in America: I will tolerate it no longer. A new sexually transmitted and incurable disease will bring rapid and painful death to many. It is coming. There will be no cure.Those that promote and murder children, I will see to it that YOUR children are murdered. Those that abuse and molest My children, I will see to it that YOUR children suffer the same for all of eternity. They will be chained to you forever as you burn in the hottest fires of hell. You will burn together. Those that have performed the murder of My children through abortion and have supported these murders of innocent blood, you will experience the very same tortures that you inflicted upon them. It will never stop for all of eternity. Forever you will be tortured if you do not repent and turn to Me and cry out for mercy. It is only My blood that can cleanse and remove these horrible sins. Those that have enslaved the souls of children through witchcraft, sorcery, Satanic worship and sacrifice, and the occult: You will be tormented the worst of all. Forever you shall be chained to those you enslaved as you are tormented by Satan himself. I warn you: do NOT participate in these things for it will damn you souls!

* Concerning genetic manipulation and mind control though technology: This brings My wrath upon those that try to mix what I have not allowed. But, soon when the Tribulation begins, this will sweep through the earth and eternally enslave all who worship the Beast, as it is written in My Word. Those who develop and participate in this now will lose their minds in torment forever in hell. To the degree they participate in enslaving and creating mutations that I have forbidden, to that degree, they shall be mutated and tortured forever and ever.

I will NOT allow these things to continue much longer without judging and destroying those that continue in lawlessness and sin. I am a HOLY GOD and I have reserved the cup of wrath for those that hate Me and will not forake evil and sin. I am weary of holding back any longer! I WILL do exactly as it is written in My Holy Word.

Oh earth, earth, earth, hear the Word of the LORD: Repent and forsake these abominations! Before it is too late, turn to Me or you will perish!

My Beloved Bride, I am pouring out a fresh anointing of fire and protection upon you. Do not fear the things that are coming upon this earth. Soon and very soon you shall be with Me!”

May the Lord continue to help us to hear and obey!

A 2005 prophecy of Maurice Sklar

http://rapturewatch.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=prophecy&action=display&thread=4111&page=1

There shall be 5 terrorist attacks that will hit America in ever increasing destruction upon the major cities. Before the end of 2007, a nuclear “dirty bomb” will blow up in a major city in the south of America.

Thanks for the bump. I am so grateful that our merciful Father God hears the cries of His faithful prayer warriors and stays His hand as a response to our hearts’ pleadings for more time.

‘It is the prayers and the intercession of My Bride that is holding back the flood of evil and judgment soon to come upon the whole earth. It is to allow My grace to continue to reach out to the lost and the backslidden church just a little bit longer. It is not My will that any perish in hell.’

LEVEL 2 END TIMES PING TO QX’S COMMENTARY:

INDEED.

THANKFULLY, as we know who have been interceding over the years:

“Nevertheless, tell My Bride that I have heard her cries, her prayers, and her intercession. I have seen her tears. It has restrained much that would have already happened.”

I know that in times past, many such prophecies were IN LARGE PART WARNINGS . . . and, like Jonah’s warnings . . . sometimes there has been repentance and great prayer moves and God has relented—at least for a time.

I think prayer is still greatly in order. And, there may be some further delaying and moderating—but I don’t think it will be much delaying nor much moderating of the severity.

And, scoffers, at SOME point, are going to find themselves on the opposite side of the line from GOD ALMIGHTY. They won’t find that a very comfortable place to be.

It still shocks me to see how many “Christian” FREEPERS!!!! still do not realize the gravity of the current rapidly building situation.

And, they do not realize how severely the battle lines are being drawn.

One of the requirements for any meaningful, significant degree of a robust sort of FREE WILL is for some significant degree of fuzziness about at least some significant issues and boundary lines.

If a guy is courting a young lady . . . and the guy is a billionaire . . . he likely wants to drive up first in a rusty old pickup if he REALLY wants to know if she REALLY LOVES HIM FOR HIM. Once she learns of his billions, it’s usually too impossible to tell what she really loves—him or his money.

America and the world has “enjoyed” a lot of fuzzy boundaries. Rebellious kids didn’t get stoned todeath. Nor adulterers. Nor prostitutes. Nor homosexuals. . . .

However, the downside is . . . folks began to think such things didn’t really matter that much—even to God.

BIG MISTAKE.

NOW the lines are being clarified and hardened.

Folks who thought they had months and years to make a firm decision for God will suddenly find they don’t have another day.

Christians who thought they could get away with wishy washy walking with God, preparing for what’s coming; loving the lost . . . will find they don’t have another minute.

Folks who think that their idols of material goods or RELIGIOUS rituals or IN-GROUP dogma or

ANYONE [e.g. Mary etc.]

or

ANYTHING

will give comfort or safety OTHER THAN GOD

will discover they were wrong. HORRIBLY WRONG.

GOD IS HOLY.

He does not farm out HIS IDENTITY TO INTERLOPERS.

AND HE MEANS WHAT HE SAYS.
