A Crucial Hour

Rev 3:15-21 NKJV
15 "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. 16 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. 17 Because you say, 'I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing' — and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked — 18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. 21 To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
“So many lives hang in the balance of eternity right now. This is an hour for prayer and for worship; for priestly ministry. It is an hour for speaking the Word in faith. The world is on the edge of eternity and some would have you believe that things will go on and on and on. The signs are all around you, that the antichrist is here and living and soon to gain position for his end times role. You are creating life as if you can manipulate and mimic My creation.
You have altered the life cycle of plants and animals, transferred species all over the world, upsetting the order of everything that is made. Pollution fills the oceans and lakes, and waters just about everywhere. People are dying daily from oppression , disease and starvation. Ethnic wars abound. The electronic chip system is being implemented in nations. The earth is groaning, and all is set for the man of sin to appear once major disasters catapult the economic system into chaos. The war of all wars looms on the horizon. Yet many are still slumbering, still business as usual, as in the days of Noah.
People mock My name day in and day out. Spiritual blindness and deafness has affected the lives of ordinary men and women, and children are taught humanistic and pagan principles in schools. Compromise has filled many churches called by My name, for a long time now. Don’t you think I have been patient? Don’t you think that wake up calls have been given enough to shake people? Yet people go on in their complacency and apathy. You must pray and worship and war with the weapons I’ve given you, and you must continue to REST in My arms of love in communion with ME, that you will be prepared. PREPARE YE THE WAY OF THE LORD, I have said. How did they prepare for Pentecost? That is how you need to prepare now! Worship, pray, read, LISTEN for Me to talk back to you, and then DO what I ask you to do. The wind blows where it will, and so must you also be led of the Spirit [Ruach Elohim]. Let ME be Your Adonai!
KNOW that if you are in true relationship with ME, that you will be hidden in the day of My wrath. For again I will come like a mighty rushing wind and there will be a new day, and My people will know Me, My people will agree to do My will alone!
Zeph 2:7-11 NKJV
7 Judah; They shall feed their flocks there; In the houses of Ashkelon they shall lie down at evening. For the LORD their God will intervene for them, and return their captives.
8 "I have heard the reproach of Moab, and the insults of the people of Ammon, with which they have reproached My people, and made arrogant threats against their borders. 9 Therefore, as I live, "Says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Surely Moab shall be like Sodom, and the people of Ammon like Gomorrah — Overrun with weeds and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation. The residue of My people shall plunder them, and the remnant of My people shall possess them."
10 This they shall have for their pride, because they have reproached and made arrogant threats against the people of the LORD of hosts. 11 The LORD will be awesome to them, for He will reduce to nothing all the gods of the earth; People shall worship Him, each one from his place, indeed all the shores of the nations.
You have heard the trumpet calls of My prophets and so I have said to draw near to ME, for the days grow more terrible in violence. Keep hidden in the shadow of My wings for I am Jehovah Sabaoth…I AM the LORD OF HOSTS.
I will defend My own. Throw off the unbelief that so surrounds you and CLING to ME! I AM YOUR ROCK AND HIGH TOWER. I AM THE ROCK OF DEFENSE AND YOUR INVINCIBLE ARMY! TRUST IN ME AND BE COURAGEOUS!
Matt 24:36-44 NKJV No One Knows the Day or Hour (Mark 13:32-37; Luke 17:26,27,34,35; 21:34-36)
36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. 42 Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. 43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
Mark 13:9-13 NKJV "But watch out for yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be beaten in the synagogues. You will be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them. 10 And the gospel must first be preached to all the nations. 11 But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit. 12 Now brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. 13 And you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But he who endures to the end shall be saved.
John 12:23-26 NKJV But Jesus answered them, saying, "The hour has come that the Son of Man should be glorified. 24 Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain. 25 He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.
John 16:23-24 NKJV "And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you. 24 Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.
Rev 3:3-4 NKJV Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you.
Rev 3:10-13 NKJV Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth. 11 Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may take your crown. 12 He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God. And I will write on him My new name. "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."'
Rom 8:20-23 NKJV For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; 21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. 23 Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
Truth or Consequences
Priscilla Van Sutphin
April 6th, 2004 1:20 am
2 John 4-9 NKJV Walk in Christ's Commandments
I rejoiced greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, as we received commandment from the Father. 5 And now I plead with you, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment to you, but that which we have had from the beginning: that we love one another. 6 This is love, that we walk according to His commandments. This is the commandment, that as you have heard from the beginning, you should walk in it.
7 Beware of Antichrist Deceivers
For many deceivers have gone out into the world who do not confess Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist. 8 Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.
9 Whoever transgresses and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ has both the Father and the Son.
2 John 10-11 AMP If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine [is disloyal to what Jesus Christ taught], do not receive him [do not accept him, do not welcome or admit him] into [your] house or bid him Godspeed or give him any encouragement. 11 For he who wishes him success [who encourages him, wishing him Godspeed] is a partaker in his evil doings.
There are many who think it is all right to compromise My Word. There are many who think that by being politically correct they can attain peace. Peace only comes through Jesus Christ! There is no peace with compromise! there is no peace to those who deny the truth. Joy comes from repentance.
Joy comes from knowing ME and the sacrifice made by My Son for the sins of this world. He is your Peace Who has broken down every door.
Eph 2:14-16 NKJV For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, 15 having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, 16 and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.
Those who are on the inside no longer walk trying to fulfill the law for My Son has fulfilled the law, and put to death the law with HIS BLOOD on the cross. But the Word of God stands forever and the law is to point to the TRUTH of HOLINESS, that you would know what is holy and what is profane. Yet, I have said if your holiness does not exceed that of the Pharisees, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven! I have said, Be holy as I AM HOLY! The desire for holiness should come from your relationship with ME. When you love one another you desire to please one another in every way. A child normally desires to please their father and mother. When they displease them, they should be remorseful and try to change. That is because I have built into you a conscience.
When you strive and try too hard to attain to the law, then you are not under grace, but have ventured out into the Law of blessing and cursing; the enmity. You walk in witchcraft instead of GRACE! OH WHO HAS BEWITCHED YOU FOOLISH GALATIANS I SAID! For if you abandon the GRACE of GOD, provided by the CROSS and the precious blood of My Son, then you are in opposition to it. Either you are for ME or against ME…there is no middle ground. The religious spirit has become stronger, because it IS ANTICHRIST in nature. I have not called you to be religious but in RELATIONSHIP. HE whom the Son sets FREE is free indeed. Where the Spirit of the LORD is, there is LIBERTY. Yet many of my people walk around CAGED because of the judgments and criticisms of other Christians who don’t know HOW to walk by the Spirit, but are walking under the CURSE OF THE LAW which only leads to condemnation and despondency, and defeatism.
I came to give you LIFE and that more abundantly. But when you judge one another, gossip and shame one another, and treat as outcasts those of the faith, then you walk in RELIGION and not in LOVE. YOU need to be a part of the healing and deliverance for one another….IRON sharpening IRON, not criticism and judgment, controlling one another and jealous of one another.
There is much work to be done in this hour and you must learn to walk together with those who are IN ME. For those who refuse to come in, they have chosen then, their OWN WAY and not the way of LIFE. CRY OUT for the revelation of MY GRACE FOR THEM! For I desire to break every chain that binds them. Cry out for the BAPTISM that those who do not know the power of MY SPIRIT will come to know it! Cry out for mercy and TRUTH to be revealed.
HUMBLE YOURSELF for the sake of your brothers and sisters and cry out for their freedom! TRUMPET MY CALL TO FREEDOM in LOVE and MERCY and GRACE…for I am coming with a tsunami of MY LOVE. I am coming with GLORY. But My glory is a two edged sword. It exposes, empowers and it cleanses, but it can also kill. Remember the high priest wore a cord, so that if he died in the presence of the Lord of Hosts in the most holy place, that others could drag him out? Remember that if you touched the Ark without holiness, that you were instantly killed?
Do I CHANGE? AM I LESS HOLY THAN I WAS THEN? DID NOT ANANIAS AND SAPPHIRA DIE FOR LYING TO THE HOLY SPIRIT.
DON’T I KNOW WHAT IS IN THE HEARTS OF MEN?
No you are not under the Law, but if you are trying to be, and are not accepting of my grace, and living in PRETENSE, then you are relying on SELF, and not on ME. I WANT you to understand this, because I am coming in POWER. If you disdain the TRUTH, how can it set you free? The fullness of truth is gradually attained. You are sanctified by the Truth. So then I AM HE Who judges the by the HEART. I alone know what is in the heart of man. I am not just coming to change you. I am coming to TRANSFIGURE YOU into MY LIKENESS that you may endure the days ahead. I WANT to pour out My love and it will break every chain. ASK NOW for that LOVE, that it may break the yokes of bondage that have so easily beset you. TAKE time for yourself to spend time IN ME to truly KNOW ME!
John 8:31-32 NIV Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
1 Tim 4:2-3 AMP Through the hypocrisy and pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared (cauterized), 3 Who forbid people to marry and
[teach them] to abstain from [certain kinds of] foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and have [an increasingly clear] knowledge of the truth.
2 John 1 AMP THE ELDERLY elder [of the church addresses this letter] to the elect (chosen) lady ( Cyria ) and her children, whom I truly love--and not only I but also all who are [progressively] learning to recognize and know and understand the Truth--
You cannot walk in obedience to my word till every chain is broken! As long as there are demonic strongholds on your soul, then there is inability to fully walk in ME. I KNOW those whose hearts are torn because they try, but can’t seem to overcome. I know those who cry out for freedom. I know thse who have hearts of humility. I WILL ANSWER your cries for freedom!
I will baptize you in FIRE and every chain will be broken! I WILL HAVE A HOLY BRIDE!
1 John 3:20-24 AMP
20 Whenever our hearts in [tormenting] self-accusation make us feel guilty and condemn us. [For we are in God's hands.] For He is above and greater than our consciences (our hearts), and He knows (perceives and understands) everything [nothing is hidden from Him].
21 And, beloved, if our consciences (our hearts) do not accuse us [if they do not make us feel guilty and condemn us], we have confidence (complete assurance and boldness) before God,
22 And we receive from Him whatever we ask, because we [watchfully] obey His orders [observe His suggestions and injunctions, follow His plan for us] and [habitually] practice what is pleasing to Him.
23 And this is His order (His command, His injunction): that we should believe in (put our faith and trust in and adhere to and rely on) the name of His Son Jesus Christ (the Messiah), and that we should love one another, just as He has commanded us.
24 All who keep His commandments [who obey His orders and follow His plan, live and continue to live, to stay and] abide in Him, and He in them.
[They let Christ be a home to them and they are the home of Christ.] And by this we know and understand and have the proof that He [really] lives and makes His home in us: by the [Holy] Spirit Whom He has given us.
Watch What I DO
Priscilla Van Sutphin
April 10th, 2004
I desire mercy and not sacrifice I have said. So though men do not deserve it, when you show it to undeserving men or women, it is a character trait like Mine. For I am good to the ungrateful, even as I have been good to you when you have been ungrateful.
I love you and adore you, and you are My precious daughters and sons! I feel that way towards all My creation, though they spit on Me, and gnashed at Me with their gritted teeth, I died for them. I am about to do some transformations in such men, who think they know everything…who think because they have everything they could ever want, they don’t need Me! I will bring revelation, and I will bring judgment depending on what is best for the situation, but watch and see what I will do in them who think they have Me all figured out!
I will take those who play ME for a fool, and they will eat the dust of the earth and grovel for mercy when I am done! I will shake their foundations and they will know that I am GOD! They will no longer think they can do ANYTHING apart from ME! Watch how I come into seminaries and shake them! Watch how I shake institutions of “higher” learning! Watch how I come into the palaces of KINGS and Rulers and SHAKE them to their knees! For I am ALMIGHTY! And though they have defied ME, they will bow down at MY FEET and yours! They will KNOW that I have loved you! The power of the CROSS will heal even the most hostile and wounded soul! There will be those who are beyond foolishness, and who have given themselves to wickedness, that will be ushered into MY KINGDOM, and they will cry out and bring in MANY MORE! I will take Mafia bosses and turn them into tender hearted bravehearts! I will take drug lords and turn them into Joshuas for My Kingdom! THERE is NOTHING too powerful for ME to heal and save and deliver!
I will take sons and daughters who have abandoned ME entirely thinking I have abandoned them in their woundedness, and terminate all the power of the enemy in their lives, and they will go forth singing and shouting with JOY in their hearts and the power of the HOLY SPIRIT ruling in them, and they will subdue nations and peoples for the sake of My KINGDOM!
Will you pray and WORSHIP ME as if you believe that? Will you DECLARE MY NAME and DECLARE MY LOVE AND MERCY to ALL who come to you?
Will you embrace the CROSS, as I move among you and awaken the hearts of the LOST? KNOW that this will be MORE than you can imagine! KNOW that I am DETERMINED to have a HOLY and SPOTLESS BRIDE, and nothing can stop ME! Those who oppose this move, will find themselves in deep MIRE. Though they fight, they will not prevail. For the Son of Righteousness is arising with HEALING in His WINGS, and there will be STARTLING MIRACLES and SIGNS AND WONDERS!
Upon it’s back will come LYING SIGNS and WONDERS by demonically inspired people that will try to mimic what I do…but like Jannes and Jambres, they will not succeed. MY POWER will be UNSTOPPABLE.
MY LOVE will penetrate the hearts of EVERYONE who calls themselves by MY NAME! It will expose to all the condition of their own heart and many will be in the VALLEY of DECISION. Should they EMBRACE THE CROSS?
Or should they be politically correct…though that status will soon mean nothing in this nation! MY PLANS will overrule the plans of any man!
I am desirous of HARVEST, and there will be a great flood of souls coming into the KINGDOM, so GET READY MY PEOPLE! Get ready, for the MIGHTY ONE is coming and YOU WILL NOT BE LEFT OUT, if you are IN ME! Many will come, and many will not, but I will have a GREAT HARVEST of souls! Do you hear the sound of RAIN? Do you hear the THUNDER?
The clouds are gathering! Get ready to REAP! SUDDENLY I WILL COME INTO MY TEMPLE!
