THE COMING SHAKING & THE CALL OF GOD

The Lord has placed something very heavy on my heart. I believe the Lord is calling His true Church, the Bride of Christ to a level of spiritual warfare, prayer and intercession that we have not yet seen in the U.S., Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, Australia and other regions of the earth.
There is something coming with great intensity. We are in the calm before the storm. Men’s hearts will fail them for fear in the last days. But, Jesus Christ was not talking about true believers. We are at the doorstep of the Rapture of the Church. I am not setting dates. However, the Church is going to go through an intense spiritual battle prior to His return. Israel is God’s prophetic clock and we must pray for, support and stand with Israel as never before.
We must also pray for President Obama and our leaders as never before. It is well and fine to disagree with any political leaders. But, America and the world is entering a time. I will leave it at that because I do not believe the Lord wants me to share anything more on that subject. The Church in America is not prepared for what is about to come. God is calling His True Bride the Church to the Wedding Supper of the Lamb. There is going to be a tremendous spiritual battle before the Rapture.

God is calling His Church to reject the armor of Saul and take up spiritual weapons, because the true battle is spiritual. That does not mean there are not physical realities and responsibilities that we have on an economic, political and social level. This is not a call to a non-Biblical Christian mysticism. The True Church is faithful and holy. The Bride of Christ, as contrasted with the Harlot Church of Babylon of which the leaders and kings of the earth enter into fornication or oneness with the Harlot Church.

We are seeing a Great Divide in the “Evangelical Movement.’ The true Church which is faithful to His Word and the apostasy that Paul warned of which is sweeping America and the world.
I believe the Lord is calling His True Church to a prayer, fasting, intercession, spiritual warfare and evangelism. The Lord is ready to light the fires of a Third Great Awakening and a final revival before His return. This is distinct from false prophecy and apostasy which is the spirit of antichrist moving in the world to set up a one world false religion under the leadership of the False Prophet. It is important to pay attention to the move for world currency because the False Prophet will direct a one world economic system.

Prior to the Rapture, and with Israel directly involved, there is a coming shaking and testing. The Church must be prepared! The Lord is calling for mass repentance especially from false doctrine. Those believers who have repented of false doctrine are the True Bride of Christ. I believe there is a coming shaking of huge significance. Seismic in many capacities. But, the Lord is not going to remove His covering off His Bride.
