Suppose it were your last hour! What would you choose to be doing? But let me tell you, it is the last hour. God is giving us warnings and signs in the heavens and in the natural. 

“Little children, it is the last hour…” (1 John 2:18). John penned those words almost two thousand years ago. If John were writing today, he would probably say it is the last seconds of the last hour. If anyone thought they only had an hour left, I seriously doubt they would be concerned about things…they would be concerned about where they would spend eternity and those they love. Living with eternity in mind brings all of life into proper perspective. 

When I heard about the recent evacuation at the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and the story of a line being cut at a bridge that ushered in darkness and loss of power for three days…my mind thought about the evacuation that will happen in a twinkling of an eye when the Trumpet sounds. 

When we don’t renew our minds in the Word of God and stay connected in close communion with God, and with other believers, we can live in the world and be unaware of the times. Anyone can lose their power if they live in denial or do not stay plugged into God and His Word. 

With the power outages and evacuation that occurred due to power lines being cut, I also thought about how the law has been changed to go against God’s Word, and how He is warning America to return and repent. The enemy wants to destroy all mankind through destroying our connection with God. My third book THE MIDNIGHT HOUR (Will America Turn Back To God?) is a wakeup call for everyone. America was founded on God’s Word. Jesus is the bridge for all mankind to heaven…and it is our choice if we receive the gift of eternal life or not.

With the next event happening on August 21, 2017, with the narrow path across America where the total eclipse will be visible, I learned that it has only happened once before in 1776. What is significant about 1776? It is the year that is celebrated as the official beginning of the nationhood of America. 

People are converging from all over the place to watch this total eclipse of the sun. Hotel rates have skyrocketed and mass productions of eyewear are available. People are being warned to check the safety of their glasses as viewing the sun without proper eyewear can cause permanent damage. 

The constellation that is forming on September 23, 2017 is the first time since Creation. We are getting signs in the heavens of warnings, and those warnings are getting bigger. (Take time to read Revelation 12). In between, on September 11, 2017, is the Feast of Trumpets on the Jewish Calendar. One day the Trumpet shall sound and we will be called to meet the Lord in the air. We are not called to predict dates of the return of Christ. However, we can surely see the signs and warnings for all to repent and be ready for His return. 

It is obvious that we are much closer to the end every single day. Paul saw it that way too: “Knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed” (Romans 13:11). 

The Bible’s message is that our days are “numbered”….not numberless. The Church must awake out of slumber, sleep, and sinful ways and be more concerned with the battle that rages—the war with Satan and the salvation of souls. We have to check our own hearts and be prepared at all times. The Bible says, “Pursue the enemy, and without fail you shall recover all” (1 Samuel 30:8). In THE MIDNIGHT HOUR, you can see the principles that are time tested that still work for today…if we will repent and return. David wept before the Lord, he worshiped, he inquired of God, and God gave him strategic instructions….David obeyed and recovered all. 

We also know David was also the one who chose to tackle the enemy. First Samuel 17:48 says that David “ran” toward the Philistine champion—the Giant. The believer in the army who tackled the enemy was the one who carried the anointing of God. It’s time to stand up, stand apart, and step into battle…with faith in God! Magnify the Lord over all. 

We must humble ourselves and repent and return to the Lord. The Good News of Jesus Christ, the Gospel, is eternal, but we do not have eternity to preach it….time is short. It is the last hour for someone today. Somebody is crying out to God for help. No one is good enough to make it to heaven on their own. We all are in need of Jesus. He came, he gave His life for all mankind, but we must believe on Him, confess our sin, and experience a heart change. Knowing about God is not enough. 

If you are not born again, if you are living in sin and you are reading this, it’s not too late. Repent and believe. Read the Bible for yourself. God says, “My people perish for lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6). 

The warnings have hit America. Weather patterns are changing, wars and rumors of wars, increased violence, chaos, confusion, and fake news. Lack of respect for authority to betrayal of all kinds. The spirit of antichrist permeates human thinking and society. It is has created havoc and caused moral collapse. But God… God has His answer. The outpouring of His Holy Spirit is His amazing and special provision for the last hour.

No one knows when the Trumpet will sound…no one knows when the Church will be caught up to be the with the Lord in the air. When that evacuation occurs, everything will change forever. All of The Feasts of the Lord are appointed to a certain day. When the stars and planets are lining up, these are signs in the heavens from the Lord. God does say, “Surely, the LORD GOD will do nothing, unless He reveals His secrets to His servants the prophets” (Amos 3:8). 

God sends warnings. He warned the people through Noah of the flood that was coming. He warned Pharaoh by Moses. The list goes onward. He is still warning. He warns through dreams, visions, His Holy Word, through His Servants, and through signs in the heavens. He goes to extreme measures to get our attention. 

“And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; …before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD” (Joel 2:28, 31). 

The Body of Christ, armed with the Word of God, will be mobilized for the last onslaught of the enemy. Satan will lose again. We know the end of the story. 

It’s time for the harvest of souls and Satan can see his opportunities are slipping away. He knows his time is short. The greatest outpouring, the greatest revival of all time, the greatest anointing of God’s power is coming upon us. Revelation 12:11 says, “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.” 

The future has been written and settled beforehand by God. The last hour is determined and has a glorious conclusion. Make sure you are standing with Jesus. Look at the what the Bible says: 

“So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down.” (Revelation 12:9-10). That’s a good ending. 

If you are born-again, witness to your family, friends, and foes. Walk in God’s love. Sow mercy and grace. If you are not sure, or if you are caught up in sin, repent and return to the Lord. Don’t allow darkness to cover your heart. 

The total eclipse that is coming is a warning for every person to make sure their heart is right before the Lord. Light and darkness do not mix. Check your own heart. This is the heart of our heavenly Father God—for those who will hear.

He loves YOU with an everlasting love. Worship His holy name!

GOD’S PRICELESS TREASURE 

A LEAP OF FAITH (25 Days At The Mercy Seat)…God raised my husband from death, healed him from two open-heart surgeries, healed him from two strokes; and how the Holy Spirit led us will inspire you to seek God more, to learn to hear Him better, and to stand in the gap for yourself, family, friends, and enemies.

Teach your children to pray every morning and night. They need to know about Jesus so they can live in the world with peace and know that God has a plan for their lives. You don’t want your family to miss eternity with Jesus.

Commit your family and business to the Lord. If you have raised your children to know the Lord and they are away from God, keep praying God’s Word over them. *Great scriptures: Malachi 2:6, Isaiah 49:25, Psalm 129:4 and Jeremiah 29:11 are a few. 

The spoken Word of God does not return void. God’s Word never fails. If you got born again late in life, pray for your family now. It’s not too late if you have breath in your lungs. These two simple prayers will change your life. 

*Pray and apply the blood of Jesus daily and ask Him for wisdom.

*Ask God to forgive you for any wrong thoughts, deeds, actions and words, and to remove anything that would hinder your relationship with Him.

You can live according to God’s Word which is linear and get off of the vicious cycle of life through learning how to apply God’s Word to your daily life. You don’t have to live stressed out, upset, and in chaos. Choose this day whom you will serve. We are either living according to God’s Word and His ways…or choosing to operate in the world’s system. 

Each human being has a destiny.

God has a plan and a purpose for your life. The believer’s purposes are to know God and to make Him known. To love one another (John 13:35), and to serve each other (Matthew 25:34-40). There is no higher calling, no occupation so satisfying. 

God desires us to have pure hearts so we can walk in His power. A pure heart has experienced brokenness and realizes their need for God, is soft and pliable to our heavenly Father’s touch, and seeks to know Him more on a daily basis. 

God desires relationship with us and a total commitment to His justice first and foremost. The basis is the righteousness of God Himself, and it is revealed in His law (which is Word). We are to love the law of God as it applies to all walks of life: home, business, politics, and the arts. 

God wants us to obey His Word because He says so. God wants us to act justly and to love mercy. This means we don’t have any desire to bring harm or destruction to anyone, but that they might be saved. Walking humbly with God means remaining in close fellowship with Him…consistently. Walking humbly means submitting to Him, doing what He says, simply because He says to do it. Walking humbly with God means being eternally grateful to Him giving continual thanks to Him for all His many benefits. 

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind, and your neighbor as yourself. (Deuteronmy. 6:5; Lev. 19:18; Matt. 22:37, 39; Mark 12:30; Luke 10:27). Act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God (Micah 6:8). Use these responses to evaluate your walk with God. 

PRAYER:

“Father, I thank YOU for the blood of Jesus that is applied to my life that brings protection, provision, and purpose. I ask You to lead my path, give me YOUR wisdom, and bring divine connections my way. Lead me according to Your Word. Amen, let it be so.” 

At night, “Father, I ask You to forgive me for any wrong thoughts, deeds, actions, and words…and remove anything that would hinder my relationship with You. In Jesus’ Name.”

We can have peace in the midst of life…and through all the storms that come with it. Jesus is Peace. He is with us in every situation. We can have peace when we turn to Jesus in everything. Trust Him today. Teach your family to pray! God loves us so much He sent His Only Son that we might have eternal life with Him. We have everything we have need of through the Blood of the Lamb —Jesus Christ!

Oh how He loves you and me!
