Some people appreciate and want God when He’s a still, small voice, and a gentle blowing (1Ki 19:12).

However,  they might stall out at a God whose voice is like many waters and His glory thunders (Ez 43:2, Rev 1:15, Psa 29:3).

Some people almost exclusively recognize God as judge, holy, and dreadful (2 Cor 5:10, Ex 3:5, Josh 5:15, Heb 10:31, Isa 8:13).

Conversely, some folks almost exclusively see God as grace, mercy, love, goodness, prosperity (Psa 84:11, Titus 2:11, Psa 103:8, Psa 145:8, 1 Jn 4:8, Psa 34:8, Jer 29:11).

Brothers and sisters, God may reveal Himself to you in a certain way more often than other ways…but it doesn’t mean that He isn’t in the other ways. It also doesn’t mean He can’t or won’t reveal Himself to you or others with a different emphasis than the one you’re most accustomed to. Allow God to be God. Give Him permission to speak to you however He wants to. Give Him permission to Be God however He so chooses.

Don’t limit God.

Don’t dictate how He can move. God is bigger than you or I realize.

In the times of Christ, He was gentle and forgiving. He was kind. He was peace. He bestowed blessings, finances, healings, and miracles. The same Jesus pointedly preached repentance. He rebuked. He chastised. He flipped tables over. He made a whip, and used it. He was from a small town. At times He had no where to lay His head. On other days He stood and taught in the temple and he even stood before rulers at the palace. Some folks called him king. Others angrily said crucify him for his crime, for His error.

As an 18 year old I asked a Pastor of a nominal church what He believed about the Holy Spirit. He answered by talking of Holy Spirit in past tense. And he informed me the last days are biblically going to be about us witnessing the great falling away. He was right. Yet, I suggested the last days may be more like a coin. When he raised one eyebrow, I said a coin has two sides. One side is referred to as the tale, a negative connotation. The other side is known as the head, a positive landing. Same coin, two sides. And Joel 2, with the echo of Acts 2, speaks of a last days outpouring. We are more so in the last days than ever before. I believe we’re in the proverbial eleventh hour—our reward will equal those that were in this way before us. It’s late, but Jesus’ first miracle brought us the testament that the best wine is saved for the last. Yes, the darkness is encroaching and that will keep on spreading. Yes, there will be wars and rumors of wars. Yes, we might be in the falling away. Yes, an antichrist will be born, grow up, and gradually rise towards his seat of influence. Yes, a false prophet and many false, false, falsety falses will be here among us. Yes, tribulation is like water warming up and will soon boil over on us. But don’t miss Jesus just because you didn’t expect a good thing to come [from Nazareth]. Don’t miss the king just because he’s riding a donkey. Get in a metaphorical upper room, a waiting, tarrying posture until God is able to reveal Himself in a way you might not have expected. Get in a room, place, state of mind that’s at least similar to  isolation. Go so far away (in spirit) and keep going until the noise, the news, and all the outside views aren’t influencing you anymore. Jesus did this regularly. One time Jesus did it for 40 days straight. Sometimes Jesus was getting away and alone early in the morning. Sometimes Jesus was getting away and alone all through the night. Sometimes Jesus was getting away and alone in the Garden. Moses, John, and Jesus were sometimes getting alone, isolated, focused in a desert place, or the wilderness. Disciples of Christ spent 10 days of waiting. These times are the emptyings of ourselves and our own inclinations that actually create a landing strip for God to come in a different voice, different manifestation, different word than what we are used to. God is…different. That’s what holy is. It’s not normal, ordinary, common.

God came here, was born of a virgin, and they laid Him in a manger.

With all my heart I believe God is now wanting to blow our minds all over again. 

Let God be God.

I believe we’re on the precipice of seven years of tribulation.

1 Peter 1:6-7 

In this you rejoice, though now for a little while, if necessary, you have been grieved by various trials, so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

On the morning of June 21 I saw a vision of a meat grinder. I heard the word “tribulation.” I realized God has the right to sift us or allow the pressure to come upon us. I have the feeling that we’re on the precipice of the seven years of tribulations. Nevertheless, God is good and He can be trusted. We can put all our hope in Him. He yet beckons us to pick up our cross and follow after Him. This is no time to shrink back. 

John 6:51a 

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever.

On the morning of May 28 I saw a vision. Holy Spirit showed me a short vision; I saw a stick, or pole. I think it was somewhat long and had a hook on one end. Then I saw a face. Well, specifically I saw a profile. I saw inside a mouth. I saw activity happening that reminded me of a Dental Assistant preparing a patient for some sort of dental work or procedure. The end. 

Immediately afterwards, the phrase came to mind “hook in the jaw.” And that’s a direct thought from Ezekiel 38: 4 “I will turn you around, put hooks in your jaws and bring you out with your whole army—your horses, your horsemen fully armed, and a great horde with large and small shields, all of them brandishing their swords.

Is the mouth being readied for the hook? Is God about to draw (drag) Gog into the deeper endgame? Yes, I believe that is what God was showing me. 

Friends. Things are happening fast. I believe we’re undoubtedly in the time of the end. Be strong. Keep your focus and faith in Jesus.

As my friend Paul Wolfenbarger just said, “I can hear the SAVIOR saying, ‘I have poured put my SPIRIT on all flesh, but you stiffnecked generation, you say I will come at a more convenient time. I say today is the day of Salvation. Seek me while I may be found.’ Don’t miss what GOD has for you. My spirit is in travail for those lost in sin.”

I had a dream on the night of April Fool’s Day.

I was on a highway. I saw the road ahead being blocked, thus impassable, due to some obstruction. As I neared I realized two objects, that at first I thought were metal rods or poles were tilting downward from overhead. The two objects were coming from opposite directions. Hence, they formed the appearance of an an X across the road. I stopped and went to get closer to work on removing the obstacle. When I got close I realized the objects weren’t metal rods or poles, they were wires. They were electrical wires. Then, in the dream, I was in the air, hoisted by a lift bucket,  doing the work of a lineman. The work took longer than I expected. I toiled through the night. Near morning I remember getting weary. I had a communication device attached to my work helmet, and I recall talking to emergency services—I guess I had put a call in to 911. I think I told them I was probably going to get it fixed but I should have called in for help. And without a minute passing by I heard sirens and emergency vehicles arriving to assist me. I then realized I was nearly unconscious from fatigue. 

—————————

The next morning when praying I heard Holy Spirit whisper to me, “the cables in an X form was a clue that people can easily get fooled, have misunderstandings, get their wires crossed.”

Then, again the next morning this dream came back to my mind. As I sat and pondered it I felt Holy Spirit telling me that…

this was the second prophetic revelation I had been given to warn about X

When I say X, I am referring to the social media platform.

After Holy Spirit reminded me of the previous revelation, I immediately felt a strong nudge to again warn people to flee and abstain from this unholy, ungodly, unhealthy place. I felt God was showing me that there are good people that are physically, mentally, emotionally, and possibly spiritually sick because they go to this place that opens them to demonic influence and demonic attack. I also felt like God was telling me to tell them to repent and ask for help and they would be helped, rescued,  fixed, healed. 

THE FIRST prophetic warning:

In January of 2024 I had a vision and subsequently heard a warning in my spirit. I saw into a dark, wet forest. Inside the forest I saw a door lying in a horizontal position. It was somewhat propped up, maybe leaning against a rock, tree, whatever. The door was functional, meaning it could be opened and closed. As my vision continued to slowly zoom in toward the door I noticed an X in the top left corner. Then I began to hear warnings about X (formerly Twitter). I heard that I was being shown this as a dark door. I heard there were places that children of light should not go, unless commissioned by the Spirit. I heard there was a dark anointing there, a real but dark and demonic anointing there that especially houses discord, dishonor, and curses rather than blessings. Even now my spirit is still hearing a beckon to flee it. In my spirit I heard that some folks are negatively affected by it when they spend time there. Without realizing it, they come away in a foul mood. They don’t realize their very spirit has been poisoned. I hear that some are physically sick because X has become an open door to their soul and spirits— while invisible and undetected—are afflicting them. Arrows of darkness are landing on or in children of light while they’re in the land of X. I heard that some have gone astray, wandered, become prodigals, and the backsliding is rooted in their excess time spent on X. There is a real anointing there, a dark and unholy anointing that allows demons to live and play. I believe God has marked it with an X to generally warn us not to enter, or to get out.

Now please don’t feel belittled, judged, or ridiculed if you are on X. I was on Twitter two different times. Interestingly, something very bad happened to me both times I was active there. So, even though these thoughts were not previously on my mind, I was given this vision by Holy Spirit and I was equipped with a warning from Heaven. Unless you feel commissioned by the Lord, I urge you to flee and/or come out of that den of demons. That ain’t narnia, it’s the opposite.

Proverbs 4:25-27 

Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you. Ponder the path of your feet; then all your ways will be sure. Do not swerve to the right or to the left; turn your foot away from evil.

Proverbs 5:8 Remove your way far from her, And do not go near the door of her house

“Facing the Enemy”

Text: Psalm 25:15 My eyes are continually toward the LORD, For He will rescue my feet from the net (trap).

I am hearing the Lord say…

I. Know me as the God that wants to Help”

This whole message is built on what God has just taught me from the following Scripture.

Psa 25:2 

My God, in You I trust, Do not let me be disgraced; Do not let my enemies rejoice over me.

II. God is emphasizing to me that we have an enemy; we’re going to need help.

• Who are “My enemies?”
• Do you know who your enemies are?”

• Your enemies are spiritual. In the OT, they were physical. But In the NT they are spiritual. 

• Your physical enemies are:

1. opportunities to NOT fight.

2. People you are to forgive.

3. People for you to approach with meekness

4. Opportunities to turn the other cheek

5. Persons to bless and pray for

6. Jesus taught non-violence ( ^{Matthew 5:38} “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ ³⁹ But I tell you not to resist an evil person.

—Meanwhile,

Luke 22:36 says buy a sword. This is for symbolism of the real spiritual battle, as we also learn from Ephesians 6:17 and Hebrews 4:12. Both verses speak of a sword but reveal the sword is spiritual.

• Your Spiritual Enemies Are:

In Eph 6:12  we see five spiritual levels of spiritual enemies. 

A couple important things to consider:

• You have 2 death due dates. #1 is to die in God’s time. #2 is the devil’s trap to take you out and thus, die before your time (God’s time).

• Likewise, many folks will have two spiritual forces assigned to them. 1 is our guardian angel. The other is the opposite of our guardian—it’s our spiritual assassin.

Don’t take it lightly that Jesus called the devil a thief who comes to steal, kill, destroy. Reject teaching that states the devil can’t steal from you, can’t kill you, can’t affect you. Folks, if you’re living in sin, you’re not wearing the armor, you’re operating recklessly concerning spiritual authority, you’re exposed and the enemy can hit and hurt you.

I’m telling you right now, you better learn to pray the raw revelation found in Psalm 25:2. 

Lord, help me. Deliver me from my enemies. 

• David had to learn the lessons of Psalm 25, as well as…

Psalm 18:48

“He rescues me from my enemies; You indeed lift me above those who rise up against me; You rescue me from a violent man.”

👆🏼That gives us three opponents 

1. Enemies: such as Bears. Lions. Jealous Brothers.
2. Enemies (like Goliath) that rise up along our journey.
3. Violent Man (such as Saul)

—Consider the serious revelation Jesus gave to Peter  in Luke 22:31 Satan is wanting to get at you; he wants to sift you.

—Consider Daniel’s encounter in Daniel 10 when he was given revelation of spiritual warfare that he was involved in without previously being aware.

1. Daniel had warfare. But Daniel had purpose.

2.David had warfare, but David had destiny.

3. Peter had warfare. But Peter had a promise.

4. Paul had warfare. But Paul had a future.

III. Get Beyond the warfare, the enemies’ resistance, and get to your future, your promise, your destiny.

God wants you (us) to get beyond the traps and attacks of the enemy so we can experience the 

• destiny, 
• prophecy, 
• will, 
• plans, 
• dreams that he has for…

• us 
• our ministry, 
• our church,
• our city. 

Exhortation. Word of Wisdom. And a Prophecy.

Exhortation: God is our helper!

Exhortation 

I believe God wants me to exhort my brothers and sisters with this strong reminder:

God is our help. He will help you.

Hebrews 13:6  So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?”

Psalm 63:7 “Because You have been my help, therefore in the shadow of Your wings I will rejoice.”

Psalm 121:2 “My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.”

Psalm 146:5 “Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God.”

Isaiah 41:10 “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”

Isaiah 41:13 “For I, the LORD your God, will hold your right hand, saying to you, ‘Fear not, I will help you.’”

John 14:26 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.”

A Prophecy and a Word of Wisdom:

Call the devil’s bluff. 

First of all, I want to say that I believe this prophetic word will begin in 2025. The word:

The enemy will begin to use demonic

propaganda

Propaganda is coming as a weapon of spiritual warfare against individuals. Propaganda against the saints as…

* Scare tactics,

* targeted words filled with fear,

* threats,

maybe even…

* diagnosis’s or

* indictments.

I believe this coming onslaught will be at least partial fulfillment of Revelation 12:15.

Berean Standard Bible

“Then from his mouth the serpent spewed water like a river to overtake the woman and sweep her away in the torrent.

Word of Wisdom:

Trust God. Believe the report of the Lord over the report of fear. I heard God say it to me this way,

“call the devil’s bluff.”

And I think that Isaiah 37 is a great example of this (read that chapter when you get the chance).

Oh, and by the way, the next verse—Revelation 12:16–is a promise of help. And the help won’t just be a rapture. The help will come in, of, and while on the earth. 

Word of Prophecy 

1.) I began to hear the word “swift” in my spirit.

2.) Then, I came across this Scripture in my daily reading: Isaiah 19:1 “Behold, the Lord is riding on a swift cloud.”

(3.) Then, I had a vision of an airplane straightening out on the runway as if it were readied for takeoff.

Flying is a trope that suggests moving really fast. Friends, I believe God is about to move really fast. And the runways are—I believe—the last days events. Flying happens from one point to another point. Or, runway to runway.

(4.) I believe God has a culmination in mind. If time has already been flying…it’s about to really take off. Matthew 24:22 comes to mind…”And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.”

(5.) I expect to see a lot of dots connected. Missing pieces related to endtimes are going to come into (obvious) play. Some of these pieces have already been among us, but they haven’t been very recognizable yet. Some eyes, ears, minds will remain closed, deceived. But God will save some of the fallen captives, allowing them to come to an enlightened awareness.

Because the last days possess so much deception, God has fore-ordained an “afterward,” end-time, phenomenal outpouring and availability of revelation (Joel 2:28-29). Even the book of Revelation is prophetically positioned at the end of the book of Truth.
