Is it ironic that the Rebublicans are meeting in Tampa this coming week to nominate a man out of a Satanic cult to be tbeir presidential candidate. And a hurricane is coming toward Tampa?

Is God sending a prophetic message here?

Bearmaster.

Why would God inflict injury or possible death with a Hurricane on millions of innocent, folks just to take out one? There are probably a lot of Christians in those millions also, is it ironic? not to me, it's Hurricane season, and Hurricanes are what happens during Hurricane season. What we all that believe in the word of God and love the Lord need to remember is, "ALL" things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. So I am guessing that if God allows a Hurricane to take out people and property as you say or think, if there are folks in harms way that are Christians and love the Lord, it will be for their good.Why would anyone wish death on anyone, don't God love us all equally, regardless of our belief? From what I understand is, the non believers just will not inherit the Kingdom of God. For God so loved the world, I did not see were he mentioned any part of the world or any type of man.

I know this is off topic but do you mind if I ask for prayer. The rain and wind from this storm does have the potential to disrupt lives and impact many people. There will probably be a lot of flooding even if this storm does only come on shore as a TS and not a full on hurricane.

just thought we might want to pray for those in its path.


God bless

Back in like '07, I sent out a word from the Lord concerning Katrina/Ike/Etc. and the prophetic warning God was sending to America through that time to return to Him or else greater judgements were coming to this land. Specifically, since judgement begins in the house of God, it was a call to the "church" in America to return to God in Spirit and in truth. The whole church back then was crying out for "revival", but wasn't willing to "reform" itself, nor fully willing in great measure to allow the Lord into the deep places of the inner man and follow the Lord with the light He had already given.
I sent out a word on this and shared how I had been to Marti Gras in NEw Orleans a year or two before with an evangelism ministry team. I saw the exceeding wickedness that made Sodom and Gomorrah look tame. I stood on the streets and preached/witnessed to individuals who clung to the dead religion as an excuse to "eat, drink, and be merry, for tomorrow we die." The Lord showed me the haunts of devils & spiritual wickedness in high places, which controlled that city, which control much of this country which used to name his name, and who had more influence on "the church" in America than she realized (after all, she sits as the whore of Babylon in front of her tv and Internet drinking it in day after day as well).
The Lord showed me and spoke to me about a real "revival" coming in His timing in America, but on the back of great judgement, such as has not been seen before. It was true revival of the kind that the apostate and backslidden church wouldn't even recognize as such, because she is only focused on self, pleasure, enetertainment, and ease. A warm, comfortable, Sunday religion. The current apostate leadership would not be comfortable in it either, cause it would return us to the original NT pattern and the power-control stranglehold of the Nicolaitin "pastor" who Lords it over the flock would be broken.
The Lord showed us what's in Americas heart these days when Katrina hit and the chaos, terror, and haunts and jackals of men filled with evil continuously began to have some free reign to manifest. Notice the difference in the Superdome after Katrina ("hell on earth" with theft, rape, murder, etc.) & the Japanese after the Tsunami (standing quietly and patiently in line waiting for help)? The Lord also allowed us to see the govt.'s only response in such chaos: martial law was implemented, and US military soldiers walked the streets with automatic rifles, collecting people's guns, and being quoted as saying, "I can't imagine having to fire on American citizens. I hope I don't have to."
You see, the Lord again cracked the door to give us a glimpse of what could be far worse on a national level if he fully removed His hand os sovereign Grace. I put out an email and received such disdainful responses, patriotic Americans proud and arrogant (like OT Israel) who said "how dare you say God isn't going to just bless this nation until He comes!!" My friend, David Servant, of Heavens Family Ministries (& Orphans Tear), sent out a teaching on it called, "Hurricane Jesus". People quit supporting 3rd world orphans through his ministry because they didn't want to hear this word. Wow. That's real believers: quit feeding and ministering $20/month (100% goes to the orphans) because they don't want anyone to rock the American dream with a prophetic voice that judgement is coming, and God is the one who will bring it.
Reminded me of Jeremiah. He tried to warn Jerusalem that the Babylonians were coming, that God was sending them, and that they must not fight God's judgements, surrender to them, and repent of their wickedness. What did they do? They locked away the prophetic voice, pressed on in Nationalistic pride, and suffered the consequences of complete Annhilation in their arrogant pride. Jeremiah, the humble prophet of fire was the only one who got out alive.
I'm not saying God did/didn't send a hurricane towards this convention, but to dismiss everything on the basis of a touchy feely "God would never do that" basis, is Biblically, prophetically, and spiritually naive, in love. If that's the case, you also won't understand the coming persecution. We Better all get out of our "mind" and what makes sense to our own sensual, natural, physical understanding. God sends judgements as He deems in His will whether we see/understand/perceive it or not. My Bible says God is in control of the weather. There was significance in Katrina/Ike. There is significance in the worst collective drought right now in US history, especially in the Midwest, which produces our food crops (dried up land, hardened with no rain, produces no "fruit").
God is not up in heaven helplessly wringing His hands wondering how to stop these darn weather patterns that are hurting these people against His wishes.
I also noticed hat your signet says "God Bless Texas". I am from Texas. born and raised there all my life. God moved me out of that place this year. When judgements do come, Texas is going to be an epicenter. Much of it will be he Lord speaking to the "Proud Texan" mentality that don't need anyone, and is more proud to be born in Texas than truly "born from above". Believers from Texas may love where they live, but know exactly what I'm talking about if they are honest. Not to insult you, or anyone at all, (again I was born in Dallas and lived in Texas all my life until this year), but there is a certain spirit of pride in the Texas culture heritage. You know it. God has made it clear that He is going to speak to/deal with that directly in the days to come.
Storms of great magnitude are on the horizon for Texas. I dont say that happily or gleefully (all my blood family and in-laws live there), but it doesn't matter how Imfeel about a matter, only what has God said/decreed? Prepare your hearts for it now and don't be surprised when it happens. The Lord has given me, those with prophetic gifts in our fellowship, and many others (all the way back to people like AA Allen 50 years ago) visions, dreams, and words about this matter. God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble. The same thing is going to happen to the US as a whole, but the storms that hit Texas will stick out and be obvious to all (who have eyes to see).

It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. I shutter when I hear that statement made on the movie The Titanic. "God, himself, cannot sink this ship.". Such arrogance. And we know the outcome of that story.

Now we have nan again shaking their fist at God and daring him to act n judgement. While all of Florida is under a hurricanes watch. And communities prepare to evacuate. The Republicans will meet in Tampa to nominate a cultist. In the path of an approaching hurricane.


I tremble. Man in his arrogance is provoking God. And the outcome could be dreadful. We do well to heed the word our brother Jeff posted.

He that has an ear. Let him hear what the Spirit is saying in this hour.

Bearmaster.

For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God. No one knows for sure what is of God and what isn't of God. Jeff, you kind of got carried away with my God Bless Texas thing, and you stereotyped me over just a simple thing, glad you know me so well you know my heart. For all that are open minded enough to care, the God Bless Texas thing was not put there out of pride, as some might think, and if anyone else has an issue with it I would be happy to remove it. I know there are modern day prophets, but I have yet to see one predict anything correctly today, so I would use the prophetic stuff very tenderly. Maybe I should change it to, God please rain down your fierce anger on Texas, hey it's drama and anger combined, what most folks desire these days, that should make some happy. What ever happened to just being a good hearted Christian and loving all, as God does, why all the bitterness and anger, and hopes of destruction or Gods wrath? it will come soon enough. Why don't we get out there and bring in the lost sheep,isn't this our first priority? :)

In love, I said what the Lord gave me. Take it or leave it, but your response to protect Texas "we don't just get along like the others" (ie "we are better than everyone else") proved my point. I have no bitterness against Texas. Why does this generation take anything serious or not positive "sunshine & rainbows" as a slam?
In love, I care not what stock you put in the words I shared as far as me personally. My heart/conscience is clear. There is nothing in the Word specifically detailing the Tsunami that hit Sri Lanka a few years ago either, but the Lord spoke by the Spirit to a Body of believers to ascend to a mountain high place and pray. That's what saved their lives from the destruction below when the Tsunami hit. There are lots of "so-called prophets" out there, I FULLY agree.
The enemy sowers those tares to discredit from the genuine wheat. I shared as I did without presumption. Do with it what you will. Consider one thing, if I would have given a "prophetic word" telling how "Texas was going to be saved from coming judgement because they don't just get along like all the others around them, and that their economy is robust and would continue as such as a sign of God's blessing", would you have believed that word? Ever read in Jeremiah the experience of Jeremiah & Hananias in the temple court of the king and thd people?
I would never take off your yoke of wood only to replace it with yokes off iron. I have shared as the Lord led me. Take it, leave it, pray about it, judge it, whatever as you choose, but the is much more confirmation than my words alone. No bitterness against Texas. My heart resides in heaven by God's grace. I couldn't care less where the Lord sends this pilgrim just passing through. I never thought I'd leave Texas for New Mexico! Are you kidding? Who wants to do that? :-) I don't care where He leads me. Southeast Asia, New Mexico, Texas, Romania, The Congo, Madagascar, Russia, etc. I just want to be where the Lord calls me to go.
That Texas pride is there. Only us "from the homeland" don't see it (or don't care to). I've lived in Dallas, lived in east Texas, worked/stayed in Houston, Beaumont, San Antonio, Austin, Galveston, etc. So why "God Bless Texas"? What about everyone else in the US? How about the world? How about "God Bless YOUR PEOPLE". Should God pour out His blessing on people who hate Him, revile and work against Him and His people, broadcast unspeakable filth on tv/Internet everyday, etc.
We don't see what we have drunk in like water and has become part of our makeup. God is going to send a wake up call of alarm bells (trumpets if you will) & Texas will see great tragedy as she has never imagined. You may not like that. You may not like me (as if you really know me), but it's going to come to pass. I don't wish it on anyone (Texas or anywhere else), but the Lord is God in control, and we are not. And yes, again, God holds the weather, along with all the earth and heavens, in His mighty righteous right hand.
I'm not against you my friend. I'm just sounding in love like a car alarm. They go off all the time these days. Ignore it if you want, but someone is stealing your car as you scoff at the alarm. I just pray God intervenes in my family's lives and they see their disconnect from God (though they are very religious) before its too late.

Dear brother Bill pro,

I would encourage carefulness here. See, you also slightly rolled bearmaster into a man who wishes judgment on people.

(EDIT ADD
"Why would anyone wish death on anyone," )



Jeffmar,
Thank you for taking the time to write and share what you have on this post.

So, if the hurricane doesn't directly hit Tampa during the Republican National Convention, will you come back and admit that your thinking was flawed?

There are many good people living in Tampa and the rest of Florida. I know several devout believers who live there.

If we aren't careful, we will be no better than Job's friends in pondering whether or not God is responsible for death and destruction upon godly men and women. Or, we might be like Jonah sitting beneath a shriveled vine waiting for "judgement" on others.

We should be compassionate...seeing this world as sheep having no Shepherd...and pray that God would have mercy upon others.
