I May have posted the following above. But I'll do it again here as it reminds me of Hanson's above.
THE SIGNIFICANCE OF ROSH HASHANAH 2004
September 15, 2004
Today as I write this it is Tishri 1, 5765 on the Jewish calendar; the first day of the New Year. The foundations of the next three years are now being laid behind the scenes by a small remnant of people, and only intercession can tip the balance and alter the course of events which are about to take place in 2005, 2006 and 2007.
There is an unprecedented urgency this fall to fast, pray and press through in intercession unlike we have never pressed through before, to intercede in the ‘Garden of Gethsemane’ as if our lives depended upon it, for indeed it does for thousands of us, and many cities and nations are being weighed in the balance.
I was taken on an unexpected journey on Elul 29, the last day of 5764 on the Jewish calendar, when I was taken in the Spirit and given an angelic tour of things to come if the nations of the world continue on their current path.
In the midst of the next three years, I was shown a bridge over troubled waters, with severe warnings shaking the earth in 5765 (2004-2005), greater judgments beginning to unfold in 5766 (2005-2006), and as the angel guided me across the bridge into 5767 (2006-2007) I was shown fire and mushroom clouds rising over cities, roaring seas and great tribulation unlike the world has ever seen. Nations were in great anguish as unprecedented earthquakes buried entire cities underneath the sea.
Without angelic intervention, events will begin to occur so quickly during the days ahead that many Christians will be caught off-guard, drunk in the cares of the world, and will not have their lamps filled with anointing. Do not be caught off guard. The Lord’s return is at hand, and great birth pangs are about to shake the earth. Everything which has been prophesied shall come to pass.
From the state of Alaska, to Asia and the ends of the earth, volcanic eruptions and great earthquakes are just the beginning. The initial birth pangs will be a call to repentance, but if are not heeded greater judgments will follow.
The purpose of the above prophetic warning is to save lives, not destroy them; to call the Body of Christ to intercession, not evacuation. By expecting the worse, we often miss the best. If we try to fit prophetic warnings into our own eschatological backgrounds, end time scenarios and personal theories, we fall into the same pitfall the Pharisees fell in to two millennia ago, and may totally miss the heart of God.
This does not mean that we should not study eschatology and end time events. But we must allow room for God's sovereignty, or we miss the opportunity for his grace. Intercession can change worlds, and God is sovereign to not only change the future, but also to erase the past.
This is a season of repentance, change, and new beginnings. Much can be lost if we fall into slumber, but much can also be gained during the next three years if we respond correctly to the Holy Spirit. Time is running out to intervene and lessen the magnitudes of the initial birth pangs.
Instead of a cataclysmic earthquake in Alaska which shreds the land into pieces, the Veil of Darkness could be shredded into pieces, and rivers of Living Water spring up from the earth; but the choice is ours. Who shall heed the warnings while they are yet small? At the time of this writing, a third hurricane is now crashing into the United States on Tishri 1, 5765 – these three storms represent three years of cleansing, which began today, September 15, 2004.
FOR CHRISTIAN LEADERS
Judgment must first begin in the house of God, and repentance first among those who are in leadership positions. Live a holy life, repent, humble yourselves, pray, for the time is much shorter than you think, and your people and perishing and need a deliverer, a shepherd, to lead them to a place of safety. Be a deliverer, a counselor, one who stands in the gap for your people, who will be a champion for your city and nation.
A great cleansing is coming, and although some judgments are inevitable over the next three years, magnitudes can be lessened, wars can be averted, cities and nations can be saved.
As national elections approach this fall, it is appropriate that you call your people to a time of prayer and fasting, not in a strict religious or burdensome sense; but as a leader that you build an atmosphere of intercession, a desire to press through for a breakthrough, releasing a spirit of hope instead of a spirit of death.
Leave your people with a vision and goal for the future, a desire to change the course of history, and to move mountains and press through towards an impossible conclusion. God is releasing revivalists in this hour who will confront the Veil of Darkness over cities and nations head on and literally move worlds for the Kingdom of God.

The War In Iraq Will Change Into Another War
Stephen Hanson
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. “
“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
Stephen Hanson
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
Stephen Hanson
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. "
The Man Of Perdition
Stephen Hanson
Sept. 11, 2004
”This calls for wisdom. If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man’s 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 won’t 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 days are 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. By the summer of 2006 he will have made himself known. 666 corresponds with this time as well. I tell you that you have no more than five years before everything is accomplished.”
A New Political Scene And A New Era
Stephen Hanson
Sept. 4, 2004
“This is the land that I have created, and this is the land that I want to be remembered. Out of the fullness of time I created this earth and everything in it. I have a place reserved for those who believe in Me. There is no God in all of the earth other than Me.”
”There is a hush in the land for the coming election. When all of the ballots are counted you will know who your leader will be. I tell you that the political scene will usher you into a new era. Political ideals will not be seen as realism takes its form. For there will be a brief time of peace, but this peace is just a thin veneer.
For after a short period of time after the events of the New Year, then there will be many other issues to face. For when attempting to rebuild this nation, then outside forces will take their toll. It will be a new political scene and a new political agenda.
When the New Year starts, these outside forces will develop into another war. Within a period of three years, this world will be ushered into the events of the Great Tribulation. These things are not far off. These things are not in the distant times.”
Seasons Change
Stephen Hanson
Aug. 28, 2004
There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: Ecc. 3:1
“This world is not your own, but I have another one waiting for you. I am He who leads and guides you into every facet of your life. I am He who knit together man and woman, each in their own way. I am He who knit together the mountains and the streams. I am the Lord of the universe and all things come from Me. The earth and everything in it, is held together by Me.
I watch over the affairs of man, and nothing escapes my notice. Out of the ground I bring forth fruit in its season; and I bring forth fruit in its season out of every man and woman. There is fruit only when you abide in Me.
There is no God but Me in all the earth. But I tell you that this earth will be going through some severe changes.
The earth’s form will be changed according to the prophetic timetable. For future events will change the direction of this earth. For in the next few years the political agenda of the United States will usher you into these events that are spoken of in my word.
For when they say, “Peace, peace, sudden destruction will come upon them”. I tell you that you are in a certain season as you approach the time of the election, but this season will change and will take on a different course of action. As you see the leaves change then you will know.”
Rise-Up Oh People Of The Rock And The Desert”
Stephen Hanson
Aug. 15, 2004
Out of the desert, and among the rocks, I am calling a people. I am saying that I am bringing you forth in this hour. For such a time as this, a people of strength and courage are needed. For the winds will blow, and they will blow hard upon this land. Places of safety will be hard to find.
(The Lord showed me a large hand and fingers that came down out of the sky. They were faded gray in appearance. They lifted some figures as if they were on a chessboard to move them. The chesspiece (s) were oriental in appearance, and were dressed for battle. All of them were set upon horses and were black in appearance. They had unusual headgear on as well. Then these figures were moving forward across a footbridge that was set between two canyons or continents. In the next scene, I saw tanks and bombs being released upon the land.) A]
“I tell you that in the near future your land will be taken by siege. It will come and will take you by storm. Rise-up oh people of the rock and I will give you strength in these days.”
Stephen Hanson
