To The Church
The Lord says, “be prepared. For some, in the next 2-3 weeks for others in the next 2-3 months and fore even others in the next 2-3 years, persecution is going to break out like the church has not seen in a long time. It is going to come from all angles, from within, from without, from leadership to visitors. But know that this is going to be purifying the church it is the time of decision. Secret sins are going to be exposed. No longer can a believer be walking in sin one moment and serving Me the next.”
I then saw a vision of a people, specifically pastors and leaders of churches, they were sitting behind these drywall walls with themselves painted on the front, a permanent smile on their faces. I saw a giant fist, the fist of God, come and punch these people right in the face, breaking through the drywall and leaving a big hole. Then God’s hand reached in and pulled out these wiggling little people. God then spoke to my spirit and said, “the false masks must be removed. I am going to be revealing people, especially pastors and leaders, for who they are. No longer will they be allowed to sit idly with a smile pasted on their faces and condone sin in their own lives and in the lives of their body, but they will have to come face to face with me and then there will be a time of decision.”
This is a season of purification and movement. The Lord is beckoning His army to awaken from their complacency and sin and be ready to fight. I then was shown another vision which was directed a two groups of people and had various meanings. First, the Lord said, “expect to begin to see more Saul to Paul, radical sinner to radical lover/preacher conversions.” I was then taken to this vision where I saw a person walking in deliberate sin and down the path of destruction that led to death. All of a sudden these tongs picked up this person and dunked, completely submerged, him in a vat of oil. The oil had a two fold meaning; first, it was the oil of anointing and second, it was the oil of the presence of the Lord. This person was then removed from the oil and placed, dripping, on a map. There were many different maps for various people there were church to church maps, city maps, region maps, and even maps of countries. This person drenched in the oil began to walk to these places and everywhere he went puddles of oil were left behind, yet he never dried up! oil constantly was pouring from him. He left not only the presence of God in the places he went, but also a fresh anointing for those places. Some of those people who were picked up and dunked were believers too. I saw them getting picked up from their chairs in the church and dunked. I then saw them try to return back to the sin that they had enslaved themselves to, but they were not able to because they were anointed with the oil of God, and they turned from their sin and began to walk in the direction of their destiny and for the furthering of God’s kingdom. When the vision was over and as I began to pray it forth, the Lord spoke again saying, “church I am telling you this so you do not try and stop what I am going to do. I am calling the radically lost and I will use them to go where you, the Church, have failed because of your religion. Do not try and stop what I am doing, instead place a hand of blessing upon those I have called and then you will see the unity grow.”
Be ready Church! God is going to move again outside our scope of comfort and familiarity. Place a hand of blessing upon God’s chosen instruments and in doing so we will be partakers in the glory of God that is revealed.
