In light of the recent information that has been discussed in our community, and the prophecy from David Wilkerson I wanted to take the time to address some things i have been hearing.
I’ve noticed the responses of people tend to be either one of fear or one of complacency. Let me speak to this. Fear is not the motivator behind all of this, but doing nothing is not the answer either. We need to operate in peace, being a step ahead of what potentially may be coming. God is not going to send any kind of judgment to his people with out His Spirit confirming with with His prophets.
If we choose to ignore them then it is on our heads. God has no motivation to hurt or destroy the world, he loves His people but the consequences for sin are black and white. The wages of Sin is death! But before we get all hell fire and brimstone…
Lets Look at who we know God to be:
1) God is a good and loving God. (Ps. 144:2)
2) God has been known throughout the Bible as one who warns his people before it is too late. (Joseph, Jeremiah, Isaiah, Jonah, and the rest of the prophets)
3) God desires that none should perish. (John 3:16-17)
Looking at these things we see that God does nothing with out telling the prophets first to warn the people and to bring them to repentance. Look at the example of Jonah. God sent him to Ninevah and he said to repent because God in 3 days will smite you. They did and God did not release his wrath. Over and over God called his people to repentance and when that happened the people responded one of two ways.
1) Repentance: Turning from wickedness, and going the other direction towards righteousness.
2) Rebellion: I will not do what I am told because I don’t need to. My way is fine.
There are examples of both in the Bible. I would encourage you to study them out for yourself.
Here is the latest from David Wilkerson:
A Further Word
“If the foundations be destroyed, what shall the righteous do?”Recently I felt compelled to send out an URGENT message warning of an impending great calamity — such that will cause even God’s elect to tremble.
One Bishop asked, “Is there no further word: How should the righteous respond to such a word?”
I can only answer by sharing what the Holy Spirit is speaking to my own heart and what I am to do. I shared that I was led in a practical way to lay aside a month’s supply of food — because I have witnessed the panic in the wake of terrorism. That has to be a personal word for every individual.
This is what I hear the Holy Spirit speaking to my heart concerning my own spiritual response to impending calamity. It is simply this —STAND STILL AND SEE THE SALVATION OF THE LORD.
“And Moses said to the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will show you today…The Lord shall fight for you, and you shall hold your peace” (Exodus 14:13-14).
This is the attitude of faith in the face of calamity. What could Israel do on the brink of the Red Sea? Pharaoh’s army is pressing in, mountains are on both sides, and there is an impossible sea ahead. The flesh cries, “Do something!”
The flesh cries hopelessness. Can God’s people dry up the sea? Level a mountain? Fight a great army without having weapons? They are in what appears to be a dreadful, frightening situation. God’s people tremble — and in this hour of trembling comes a word from God. In essence:
“Stand still. Fear not. This is the hour of salvation. You are going to witness the pulling down of the foundations of a world power. But in the same hour, I will fight for you. Hold your peace — be still and see my works.”
Beloved, my warning is just one voice among many who are saying the same thing. We may all tremble for a season, but those who truly know God’s Word will be quickly comforted by the Holy Spirit. We will be baptized with a great peace — a supernatural quietness — which will be a tremendous witness to the fearful multitudes.
In Christ,
David Wilkerson
