[b] in my being relatively new to posting here and catching up with what's been said [ joined in late may, but didn't really begin reading these til August ..] .. I did un-earth an 'anonymous' post, that got over-looked, or didn't seem apropos to anyone at the time ... many parts of it grabbed me, which you may feel free to see in relation to the event in the Gulf Coast ( katrina)

it was given as a 'prophetic' thing back in July & I have taken liberty to copy and paste from it what struck me as a "now" word to the Believers who are open to the prophetic speaking of our Lord Christ ....

I have italicized and used bold type in various parts that the original author did not .. and I have highly re-arranged the placement of various paragraphs, but all words are given by original mr. anonymous * if you're out there and still reading these posts - I pray you take no offense at my re-arranging.

It was felt by me, that parts of the original 'utterance' weren't exactly "right on" to the present "now". Maybe that's why it was ignored initially.

I've tried to pare it down, according to the lines of it that struck me as a 'now' word ( for me, at least ... and maybe to the rest of you! )

[i]I have come to speak to you this day out of a heart that grieves; a heart that grieves for a
people so easily deceived, so easily led astray into the counsel of man and of the false
god of this world.[/i]

Yes, the things that are permitted to continue until this day are there as signs of the day in
which you live. For it is an hour of expectation in the church, but an hour of terror for
those who live in the world and unto themselves

[i]Be led in the plain path of My righteousness and My hope. For I have a faith to put
within you that will bring about a love that men cannot resist, for it is love that will cover
a multitude of sins. And faith worketh by love.[/i]

All the things that you would attempt to do in an outward fashion, I will do by striking
fear into the hearts of men. And it will be in fear that many will turn to the fear of The
Lord Thy God.

[i]It is not the way that you would have done it, for I have sent you to be My witnesses, and
yet you have turned to your own way of witnessing -- your external ways of convincing
with the mind, cajoling and bringing condemnation.

But I tell you I will draw, for I have put it on the hearts of those that will be saved, the
drawing of My Word, and by the difficulties that are about to come.

When they see things falling around them that they have worshipped, they will come.
Their knee will bow before Me, the only all-wise God, the Everlasting Father, He who is
the Prince of Peace.

I tell you, your God who rules within you will rule over all the earth, and I will usher in
a kingdom;

a kingdom of priests that shall be of worship unto me, and prophets who will hear the name of the Lord and proclaim once again the clear counsel of their God.[/i]

And yet you continue to look at the outward appearance of politics. My church has become involved in the politics of man, and in using the pressures of man in order to get what seems good unto them. See that you do not kick against the goads of My will. See that you do not go about doing a good thing as it seems right in your mind only to find that you have contested that Lord of Glory. For the politics of this world will pass away.

Yes, the heart of the king is in the hand of your God.


[i]That which I have not sent, I will not bless. And I will begin to tear down the kingdoms of
men even anew and afresh.

The seas shall roar with perplexity and Men's hearts failing them for fear

the powers of hell shall be open to plain view for every discerning believer

do not let that sway you, for this is not your kingdom

Your kingdom is not of this world[/i]


[b]Hear then the word that stirs mightily, for I have called you to be a people and yet you
have continued to run to and fro with religious games. Yes, the world has piped and
played a song and you have danced, but it has not been your God and your Saviour that
you have danced unto.[/b] But you have danced unto the tune of religion.

[i]I say, come unto Me with all of your heart. Rend your heart, not your garments. Be real
before the Lord your God.[/i]


For the doctrines that have come into My church are seducing spirits of demons and they
have led many astray to seek the god of materialism, many to call unto themselves their
own power, and build their own ministry -- those whom I have not sent, and yet who use My name.


I tell you that when they stand before Me, though they have cast out devils, though the sick have been healed, I will not receive them, for I have not known them.


I say, repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. And you must see that in the year that
lies in front of you, there are the beginnings now of a political disaster. There will be
war, and you will see it in many places and eventually upon your own land. And then I
say unto you, the false god of mammon that you have bowed down to will crumble beneath your very fingers, and you will see the economy stripped from the world. Your nation will come to a place in which it no longer rules supreme throughout all of the earth. But it too shall bow it's knee, and in the midst of surrender, many will come and
know that I AM God.

Immoralities will begin to arise among them, and there will be those of the world who will know they are not My children by their very behavior. And yet they who have been seduced will be given over to all manner of evil and fleshly desire, saying, "It is God that has freed us."

But those who are led of my Spirit, who shall be called sons of God, these who hear My voice shall turn within and with trembling, know that judgment must come.

Yes, judgment has begun already, even over a nation -- a nation that will not repent, a people
who are called by My Name, who pray occasionally and weakly.


. . For a nation that must be judged will receive a leader that it deserves....one instructed
by humanism and of the mind and of the counsels of men but diabolical deep within. I tell you there is great calamity that will befall the earth and even in this year the changes will begin to take place.

A people who must, by outward circumstances, be convinced that their God rules over every situation, however difficult that might be.



[b]All of this must surely be, in order that the kingdoms of this world shall all pass away

For your kingdom is not of the earth; yours is the kingdom that shall not pass away

Yours is a new kingdom, a new heaven, and a new earth

For everything that you see shall come to nothing and be brought to naught[/b]


And when it appears that the nation has almost come to an end and that there is no hope
for it, I will arise in the midst of My body.



[b]This is the day when there shall come an increase in the anointing upon the servants
that I have emplaced. And men shall fear when they walk into My gatherings, for
the awesome, glorious presence of Almighty God shall be unto you as a light to the
gentiles! Arise! Shine! For thy light hath come and the glory of the lord has risen
upon thee!

The nine gifts of the Spirit shall be evident in full power and authority, and men
shall not walk in title only, but shall come in sign and in wonder with quick words
and mighty deeds. And you shall submit; you shall get in the flow. Because when you
see My glory, you shall hear a word behind you saying, "This is the way walk ye in
it!"

No one shall need to convince you of it, for it shall be a witness within your heart,
and you shall say, "Yes, this is the Lord! He is made manifest among us!"[/b] And the voice of wolves shall grow dim. The voice of strangers My sheep shall not follow, but they shall follow the voice of the Good Shepherd in this day and this hour.



[b]And know this, that as the firstfruits of many sons to come forth, I am calling a
people that they might be one; that they might know that the things that are
happening to the right and to the left of them are allowed for the purpose of drawing
many into the net.

For I will send you out as fishers of men, and I will drive them into the nets that
there will be a great harvest.

Yes, judgment and calamity and difficult days,
but beyond this, glory for those who will hear and who, not of themselves,
but because of My will, are called.

These are they that should be added unto Me.

I will call out, for I have foreknown them,[/b] and I have allowed the circumstances that will come.




I am not speaking of great tribulation. I am speaking of the days of sorrow that have
already begun, and will begin to accelerate even in the year that lies in front of you.

If you can hear My voice, then turn to Me.

Repent of all that which you've given yourself to, and be called to the place that I have planted you, where I would have you to be.

Forsake the teachings of men which are nothing more than
the doctrines of demons, that I may teach you
a word in due season that will be life
and meat
to your bones
and to those around and about you.
For ye are My body, and in you the hope of My glory reigns, so says your God."


[b]And it is deep within you, that desire to lay down your life. Your soul life, your
outward life; but even the physical frame, if need be for the kingdom of your God.

But, the glories of heaven beyond shall be made manifest on that day

It shall be made manifest as a kingdom that shall not pass away, a kingdom that shall live on forever, and forever.

Amen

Amen[/b]

Indeed!

Someone PM'd me wondering if I was the original 'anonymous' writer. I figured that may happen.

Sister Dorcas PM'd me also, letting me know it wasn't originally posted "anonymously" - but that's just how it looks now. His name was deleted and so it now appears as anonymous.

If you have any questions about the original author, perhaps dorcas may have some helpful words for you. Apparently, he's a fellow who posts various "words" on the internet.

...and thousands upon thousands fled...and escaped the power and might of the storm that destroyed a meca of vice, pleasure, and immorality.

As I read the prophecy reposted by Baruch, I began to think about the warning given of the coming storm named Katrina. Many believed the warning and escaped it's wrath. Many did not and were destroyed. Some simply could not escape in time. They too were lost or isolated from water and food, subjected to the tyrany of hoodlums and vandals.

Even though this disaster unfolded over several days, it almost seems like it came suddenly. I can assure you, the mighty hand of God will come suddenly. You say "where is the warning"? Read the above, beloved. It has been given over and over again. Each time it is ignored, the wrath and judgement gets worse. Why? We heed not the warning. We think we can throw dollars at anything and fix it. How many dollars can hold back a hurricane? How many dollars can resist the power of God? Make no mistake about it, the kindom of man is doomed for destruction. Sudden destruction. Yet we continue to decieve ourselves and ignore the warning. "Not today, tommorrow". It is one of satans most appealing lies. "I'll get out of this life style I'm living.....tommorrow." "I'll repent and run to Calvary......tommorrow." "I'll obey the Holy Spirit's call to the mission field....tommorrow." God I'm a fool!

One week before this storm formed, life was "normal" along the gulf coast. The drug market flourished. The gambling casinos prospered off the loses of man. The naked women danced before the eyes of lust. The bar rooms poured out their wine as if they had forever to intoxicate themselves. The fine resturants served up the finest meals and portions imaginable, and people shelled out millions to pay humage to their bellies to enjoy them and stuff themselves. They never dreamed that in just a weeks time all would be destroyed!

Today, just two weeks later and one week after the storm, it all lies in ruin. Gutted. Destroyed by the mighty hand of God. Where are their dreams of greater greed? Where are their idols of fine home, luxury cars, boats, plastic money, fine jewelry, servants, cubboards overflowing, and lawns manicured to perfection? Where are the beds of lust and immorality?

The only reason that hundreds of thousands escaped with their lives and little else, was that they headed the warning, a storm is coming.

Beloved, if you think Katrina was something, wait until you see Jesus. He will destroy the kingdoms of man with all it's glamor and luxury, and greed. He will exhalt the humble and the meek, but on the proud and the rich He will bring to swift and final destruction.

Oh God help me to turn away from myself today. I've been to this place of warning and repentance time and time again, and yet have not crossed over the Jordan into the promised land. Your mercy, kindness, and forgiveness towards me has been almost without end. But deep in my heart, I know that it will end. Oh God please help me to hear Your voice today, and head Your call to repentance and living the life you designed just for me. Help me to walk after the Spirit and not after my flesh. Give me the strength to say no to me and yes to You. Oh God, how can I escape the storm if I continue to ignore the warning thinking I have "more time"? Time is running out.

Oh Lord, I'm as pitiful and lost as those I see floating on a piece of debris in and endless lake of filth, sewage, and gasoline. I cannot hide my destitution from You.

Thank You Lord for Your Son Jesus Who has given to me all things. Help me to live and walk as Your child, and not a child of the world. Lord, it is impossible without you. I know that in my failure and weakness, my Jesus is ever there for me, to be for me what I can never be, and is for me what I could never become. Oh God, how do I comprehend it all. I must yield to faith in Christ and Christ alone. God help us all. For I know the storm is coming, a "category 10". The warning is sounding over and over again. Help us to flee from ourselves, our self worth, our self rightousness, our idols of mansions and things, into the arms of our Savior and Redeemer, The Christ, Jesus.

Woe is me,

Lahry
