"If sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our bodies. If they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees. Let no one go there unwarned and un-prayed for." -Charles Spurgeon
This section of Spirit Journals is dedicated
to the move of God upon Planet Earth in these last days. I've never read about a
revival YET that was not built upon two things - the cross of Christ and the
Holy Ghost. The cross of Christ is our foundation and will never cease being so.
The Holy Spirit has come to make the cross a reality in the lives of people.
When that reality is found - revival comes! The reason we have not had a true
move of God in so long is that we have stopped preaching the cross.
Let's believe God together shall we for a mighty move of His Spirit upon America before it is too late for this nation. I've said this many times in past journals and messages - America is no where to be found per say in the prophetic events of the future according to Scripture. Israel is found EVERYWHERE. America's handling of that tiny nation will determine a lot about our future as a nation. We have always been Israel's staunchest ally when push came to shove. I'm afraid that political forces as well as other ones are forcing our government leaders to choose sides in a conflict that will ultimately find its end in the great Battle of Armageddon when the Lord Jesus returns to earth to destroy the Antichrist.
The only remedy and salvation for this nation AND the world is REVIVAL. We need a revival of repentance, brokenness, humility and passionate love once again for God. We need to return to our roots. We need to support Israel at ALL costs no matter the consequences at home or abroad. We have a unique place in history right now as a nation that not too many have ever enjoyed - and that is being the world's ONLY superpower in place. The current military might of the United States rivals that of the great empires of the past. But neighbor in one quick moment it can all CHANGE if we don't repent!
I'm not one of those to sugar coat the message about what is ahead. Judgment is coming. ALL will be held accountable before God. Judgment cannot come to the nation before it first comes to the church. We as the Body of Christ, especially THIS generation, stands in greater judgment because we have been given the MOST to get the gospel to the masses in these end times.
The harvest is upon us and we must return to God with all our hearts, souls and minds. We need to cease from our country club type mentalities and messages offering the world an easy ride if they come to Jesus. Coming to Jesus requires DEATH - DEATH to the old man and DEATH to our sinful nature. Those processes don't come easy but it can be done through the power of the cross of Christ. Paul said He would KNOW NOTHING but CHRIST CRUCIFIED. God help us in the church today as we proclaim this foolishness that we must "go beyond the cross." When we go beyond the cross - we apostatize! We are in apostasy if we declare the cross of no effect in our preaching today. And that is what is happening today in modern church circles - AND NO DENOMINATIONS are exempt from that indictment.
We must have revival or we will perish. I pray today neighbor that if you are reading this you are saved and right with God. I pray your heart is pure and without hidden sin before His sight. I pray you are faithfully serving Him and trying to obey Him at all costs. Eternal life is not for the disobedient but for the obedient. Ministry is not about who we are or what we do. Ministry is about obeying our Lord and being vessels of mercy to those in sin's grasp in these last days.
Many would say the message of the cross is old fashioned and in need of refining. I believe the message of the cross is just what a church gone astray from God needs to get it back to its power and anointing. We don't even realize how far we have fallen and yet God's hand of mercy reaches out to us still in these waning moments before judgment.
As I close this welcome message which has turned into a small journal almost let me say this. I lost a dear aunt of mine in October 2002. She was one of the godliest women I ever knew - not perfect - but she loved God and tried to serve Him all her days as best she could. She had many prophetic experiences with God and even experienced at times angelic visitations. One of the things she was most concerned about before her death was the state of the church and how it had drifted away from its original message of repentance and godly living. A little less than a year later I have witnessed a further removal from this same message by a majority as well. In 2005, my mother followed my dear aunt into Glory and now both await in heaven that great and rapidly approaching day when the Trump of God sounds.
My mother and aunt are now in a land that is fairer than day. If you and I are planning to go there too we must have our faith in that CROSS and the finished work of Christ that He accomplished 2000 years ago. It is in that work that we find our salvation, our healing, our deliverance, our freedom, our power, our anointing, our blessed hope, our grace, our abilities, our purpose, our focus, our lives, our reason for even being on planet EARTH. HE IS OUR SALVATION and we must have revival to bring us back to that salvation today. Be blessed in HIM
