A Change In The Wind
Jackie Skevington
I feel a change in the wind......"things" are going to change in America. People won't like it at first.....they will complain, and grumble and cry out--but God said My people who HAVE cried and sought my face--it is to them that this wind has come--to change the entire "atmosphere" of America ........
Even the very way the people think will begin to change.....just as it did decades ago...slowly taking time to appear on the surface of the populaces "mind set" so it will shift the entire country's very thoughts and way of being and thinking.
Where as once it was a "Norman Rockwell " world..........it will change just as drastically
Everyone will not say "me, me , me and mine"
But it will be for the neighbor and the stranger in their midst as well.
Brothers will bind up the burdens of their sisters, and sons will help carry the loads of their Fathers.
And those that worship satan will not do so openly as they have in recent times.
It will not be a time of knowledge and abounding. But a time of caring, and surviving.
For I have heard my childrens prayers that cry to me day and night.
And I WILL answer speedily, for I am the Lord thy God and I will bring even the elements of nature into alignment of MY will for my chosen and elect and what is good for men's souls is what I seek, not the pleasurement of their flesh as many have attribiuted, in these days and times.
I will bring fire and blood in the days to come. But I will reach down in mercy and cause my children to Know me as they have never known me before.
I will create where there was nothing. I will do mighty works in their midst.
And I will be a Father that they have never known, and I will provide their very needs and wants as I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. Besides me there is no other.
I will create a desire in men's hearts to draw closer to me.
But I will not honor their programs and their schedules.
I will do this in my way, my times schedule and by my power and spirit.
When all will say :surely the Lord has been in our midst, and His ways are wonderful to behold.
For I will knit the hearts of the people to one another once again as thou hast never seen in the time of this country.
And I will bless this country once again , as it draws close to me once again.
For I am the Lord thy God and beside me there is no other. I am the one and only .
Call upon me while the time is still day, for the night time is coming when men will call upon me in desperation and anguish of soul. And it will seem as if I hear not.
Call upon my name and I will grant unto the life and joy in abundance, and all you have need of will I grant even before thou thinks to ask of me.
But to those who go their own way and seek after their own pleasures they will find it hard when the night comes to hear my voice and follow my ways, for it has been foreign unto them. They seek a way where I am not. They follow voices that are not mine.
They say it is I who speaks to them and leads and guides them, but it is not.
They are my sheep , but they have followed after their own heart and strayed from my pasture.
I am the way, the truth and the life, and besides me there is no other.
I am the way. The only way.
Seek my face while it is yet day.
In Jesus name,

Jeremiah 32:
27. Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

Renee Smith
Oct 30, 2003
The Lord spoke to me a few weeks back that the next few weeks, months even, were going to be "The days of Shock and Awe". Many people that had never seen Him, never felt Him, never known that He even existed would suddenly come to their senses and realize HE is LORD. To confirm this to me, I was sitting at an airport a couple of weeks ago waiting for my flight, when I picked up a newspaper. And what else, the headlines read: "Shock and Awe". God always confirms His word.
I feel that Holy Spirit is hovering over every piece of earth, yes earthen vessels, that does not have Him, to breathe life, speak life, for them to have form, His form and not be void of His presence. He wants to "Shock" them to life, like a defibrillator would in the natural, for their heart to beat with His heartbeat.
He wants to "Awe" them with His Glory. To cover them with His wings. His feathers for them to hide in so the enemy can no longer see and steal from them. He wants to show them His rainbow around His throne. He wants to be found of them in this earth. Then take His little ones to heavenly places in Christ Jesus. I know I want to be Shocked and Awed by His Majesty, the King. May His Glory come to this Earth and Cover us all!
