The Enemy at the Gates

I am going to be blunt and straightforward. America, we are in trouble. If we do not turn back, there will be a "correction". Over the past couple years this inner "warning" continues to grow. We can see its outward signs, also. People often think that the Old Testament holds little relevance to our world today. Wrong! History continues to repeat itself. If we would pay attention, we could look back and see what history is teaching, instead. You would think we would have learned this lesson by now. Instead, sin continues to snowball and is gaining speed during its downward roll. God, in his mercy will step in. If He doesn't, too many will be lost .



Hear the word of the Lord, O people of Israel, for the Lord has a grievance against the inhabitants of the land:
There is no fidelity, no mercy, no knowledge of God in the land.
False swearing, lying, murder, stealing and adultery!
in their lawlessness, bloodshed follows bloodshed.
Therefore the land mourns,
and everything that dwells in it languishes:
The beasts of the field,
the birds of the air,
and even the fish of the sea perish.


Hosea 4:1-3


Thus says the Lord:
Stand beside the earliest roads,
ask the pathways of old
Which is the way to good, and walk it;
thus you will find rest for your souls.
But they said, "We will not walk it." Jer. 6:16
Utterly Thine, O Lord!

  1. Oh Wow! This was so filled with the spirit within me. Sort of like when the Lord has me praying for the souls in their last agony.

    Praying for many are perishing right now!

    God bless!

    Interesting that you should say that. The Lord also draws me into prayer for souls in their last agony. I would say more but people already think I'm odd.Wouldn't want to add fuel to the fire.
