Isaiah 55:9 ~
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways
And My thoughts than your thoughts.”
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Hebrews 12:1-11 ~
“Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us,
let us also lay aside every encumbrance
and the sin which so easily entangles us,
and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
fixing our eyes on Jesus,
the author and perfecter of faith,
who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame,
and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
For consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself,
so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in your striving against sin;
and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons,
“My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
Nor faint when you are reproved by Him;
For those whom the Lord loves He disciplines,
And He scourges every son whom He receives.”
It is for discipline that you endure;
God deals with you as with sons;
for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?
But if you are without discipline,
of which all have become partakers,
then you are illegitimate children and not sons.
Furthermore, we had earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them;
shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live?
For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them,
but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.
All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful;
yet to those who have been trained by it,
afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greetings my brothers and sisters in Christ and ALL who are reading this post right now. I know at least one person is thinking, “How can I be encouraged when I read about the discipline written in Hebrews?”
Good question . . . I know it brings an automatic “OUCH!!!” when I think about it too and worse? When going through the discipline . . . “OUCH!!!! ” . . . and “OUCH” AGAIN!!!! Let’s add a “YIKES” here too. .. “YIKES!!!!”
Here’s the encouraging part that we need to focus on:
EVEN WHEN we have been, will be or currently are going through some “discipline” . . . Some challenging things in our lives that tests us . . . THE HEAVENLY FATHER LOVES US!!!
If we were tooling along, thinking “all is well”, when it isn’t . . . And we’re actually heading into hell . . . That’s NOT loving us. Think about that for a moment and let that settle into your spirit.
Now I’m going to get a bit “heavy” here, to discuss the WORST times this planet has ever seen since the flood.
Brothers and sisters, the judgements we will see unfold before our very eyes will impact us ALL. Our hearts will be grieving and we may even lose EVERYTHING we have, except the clothes on our back. BUT . . . without the judgement, MOST PEOPLE ON THE EARTH WILL BE HEADING INTO HELL.
So please remember these judgements WILL be with MERCY.
Many will be saved in the last few minutes or seconds of their lives, because they call on the name of the LORD . . . And they WILL be saved (Romans 10:13).
Please don’t let events or circumstances propel you into bitterness and anger at the LORD; the enemy WILL try to do that, amplifying your emotions, so don’t give in to it. PRAISE THE LORD IN THE STORMS . . .
Even if it’s through grief and tears. It will release peace on your soul and help you overcome the enemy’s plans against you.
So, prepare yourselves for what’s going to unfold, by submitting to the Holy Spirit, while enduring discipline you are going through right now. It’s “prep” so you’ll be ready to minister to the hurting, lost and dying. . . To usher in the GREATEST “harvest of souls” for the Kingdom of Heaven.
When it seems like you just “can’t take it any more”, remember the Heavenly Father LOVES YOU And this life is a brief “blip” on the map of eternity.
ALSO REMEMBER:
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 ~
“For momentary, light affliction
is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison,
while we look not at the things which are seen,
but at the things which are not seen;
for the things which are seen are temporal,
but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
PLEASE take a few minutes to listen to/watch this:
MY PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY:
Father I lift up ALL who are reading this post right now. May each person be granted a greater measure of understanding of Your love for them. Help us ALL to cling to YOU in the storms, for YOU are our only hope. I ask that You remove all blocks, barriers and confusion that prevent us from moving forward in ALL that you have for us to do. Help us to submit to YOUR FULL WILL. Help us to KNOW Your will and help us to do YOUR will. We can’t do this on our own, Father, for we are weak and living in this fallen world. We MUST have YOUR intervention in our lives or we won’t make it. We PRAISE YOU LORD, We THANK You, LORD and we ask this prayer in the MIGHTY name of Yeshua, our Messiah. Amen and AMEN!!!

Hello Peggy and all who read Ali’s post. I contacted her for clarity and have permission to share what she said in the email (see below). ALSO, I recommend if there is a prophecy that you are not sure about, to contact the person sharing it. . . He/she should be able to help you understand what was shared, if there is confusion.
Here’s Ali’s additional info:
God’ hand is always extended to all; before the storm, in the midst of the storm, following the storm. Imo, Holy Spirit is NOT saying judgments will not be withheld nor that they have not begun, but wherever a person is, whatever their spiritual location, balm, Yeshua’ hand is available. 2chronicles 7:14 comes to mind.

Hi Karin,
This is what the Bible says:
Isaiah 60:1-2 ~
“Arise, shine; for your light has come,
And the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
“For behold, darkness will cover the earth
And deep darkness the peoples;
But the Lord will rise upon you
And His glory will appear upon you.”
Notice it says “BUT THE LORD WILL RISE UPON YOU” . . .
It gives me the understanding the ugly, disgusting, dark evil stuff happens FIRST . . . before the final miraculous presence of the LORD rises upon HIS people.
SO, I do believe we will be in a difficult time period BEFORE amazing miracles, signs and wonders will occur. It’s going to be a testing of our faith. . . Will we STILL love the LORD, even in the midst of the darkest hour?

So take this time to get a stronger relationship with the LORD. Remember HE is our Heavenly Father who loves us and wants us to be with Him in eternity. HE IS ON THE THRONE and in control.

Hello Karin,
I also have great respect for Sadu . . . Indeed he loves the LORD. However, we must diligently take ALL “words”, prophecies, dreams and visions to the LORD in prayer for confirmation. That includes ALL that I share here on this blog. I do not “have a witness” in my spirit on all that he shared about Trump. Again. . . Take all that you read to the LORD in prayer. There is a lot of “mixture” going out right now in the prophetic community that is VERY distressing to me.
We will each be responsible for seeking the TRUTH ourselves. . . Hearing from the Holy Spirit ourselves and obeying what He is telling us individually to do. . .. SEEK THE LORD while He may be found. . . Have that close, intimate relationship with HIM. I sadly say MOST “professing Christians” in the USA are NOT seeking the LORD and can NOT “hear His voice”.

Hello Karin,
I’ll answer each one of your questions:
A) I don’t know. . . The Holy Spirit has not given me any specifics on that. Eventually the Bible says he will set up his kingdom in Jerusalem.
B). The MAIN and FIRST priority is making sure we have a clean heart and walk with the LORD. Ask the Holy Spirit to show you any area that you must repent, forgive or anything you must change to line up with the Will of the Heavenly Father. The ONLY place of safety is in the Center of the Heavenly Father’s will for your life.
C). That is something you must seek the LORD about. Each person may be given different and specific instructions for his/her situation. However, wisdom is to be prepared for emergencies, regardless of the emergency, just like you would if there were going to be a heavy snow storm. Again, seek the LORD on what HE will specifically have you do. Only HE knows that for each situation.

A word through Ali Winters (a watchmanonthewall)
MONDAY, AUGUST 15, 2016
“You are not clean My children. Bitterness, anger, rebellion too often fill your heart. You desire to be like My Son but do not seek Me to change, deliver and heal.
The world’ ways consume you. Many are trapped by bad choices, compromise and fear. The kingdom of God has for too long been misrepresented by lazy shepherds, hirelings who know not My Truth. My sheep continually follow a false gospel for they do not study My Word to show themselves approved of their God. You have brought disgrace and shame upon My house by your refusal to seek after Me.
Heartache, much heartache continues to spread over one nation then another. Sins have taken hold of hearts that once loved Me. Now you will see where your rebellion has led.
The children suffer for they know not the ways of God. Fall on your knees, repent and return to Me. There may yet be a balm for the sores of your land.”
“Thus says the LORD, “Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind and makes flesh his strength, and whose heart turns away from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17:5
“It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.” Psalm 118:8
“The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.” Mark 1:15
LINDA’S NOTE: PLEASE PRAY ABOUT THIS MESSAGE. . . The statement “There may yet be balm for the sores of your land” . . . May point to a future time AFTER tangible judgements, which WILL happen. No wiggling around that. SO. . . WISDOM IS THIS: PRAY ABOUT ALL PROPHECIES, DREAMS, VISIONS AND “WORDS” . . . Sometimes there may be a timing issue, an interpretation issue or clarity issue.
We EACH are responsible for our individual walk and MUST, MUST, MUST be able to hear from the Holy Spirit OURSELVES.

Here’s a link to the temple institute: http://www.templeinstitute.org

What if I were to say….just what IF I were to report that C.E.R.N. has extreme spiritual relevance in that all dark matter is pure evil and ALL of the C.E.R.N. technology was given to humanity by the fallen ones for the sole purpose of destroying humanity as we know it.
Secondly, Obama and Hillary, as well as many others are cloned replications of themselves and utilized for whatever purpose needed at the time by their handlers,
and last, but certainly not least, that Tel-Aviv is the homosexual capital, child porn capital, and human trafficking capital of the world, and that the Zionist state of Israel worships Lucifer exclusively,
and they do not even believe in The I Am, The God of Isaac, Jacob, and Abraham, and that their sole books of spiritual direction are the Talmud and the Kabbalah, both being satanic worship guides, and the Torah is rejected in its entirety….
and what if I were to say that WE, The Body of Christ is the third temple…The Temple is already built.
We are it… This all would mean that we are much closer to the end than people realize and that we are at the end now. So…If I were to openly claim all this as truth, (and I do claim all these claims as truths) here and now,
you would probably press your tongues against the inside of your cheek and raise an eyebrow….maybe both eyebrows, and suggest that Captain Bill, (Master of the bounding main) is berserk, needs to be placed in irons and stowed away in the ship’s hold, under the heavy influence of highly tweaked medication….This understood I will proceed.
In the wee hours of this morning I was given two words.
Blurt and approach.
I didn’t know what blurt meant so I had to look it up and research its meaning a little. Interpretation is as follows…..
Much of what I place on this blog is right to the point with little or no cushioning. This method of communicative transmission can be called blurting or a blurt. If I expounded on this information with entailed reference, verification, and substantiation, I’d be here writing all day and you’d be taking up your valuable time reading it all.
Blurts are effective.
Truth is divulged.
Mission accomplished.
More blurts coming in all probability.
Now for the approach word……It seems that the approach word and the discipline word are closely related. God’s discipline can sometimes be confused with the outcome of our incorrect approach to a certain situation. Our approach to anything has ramifications or “an end result.” Our failure by incorrect approach can get us in a LOT of trouble. This trouble is not from God. It’s brought on by us, and us alone. We can be our own worst enemy sometimes and bring on horrific consequences by not approaching a situation correctly.
As an example….Stig’s one day at a time approach philosophy can be a good ploy against the enemy’s schemes.
Another approach to get out of the cities NOW. Time is very very short. Brace for impact. Contemplate and consider all approaches to all circumstances. God loves us. And like God told me (audibly),,” it’s almost over Little One”….

Prior to my dad’s illness in 2009, I sensed that I should claim “It is Well With My Soul” as my theme song. I sensed health issues/problems in the future. I bought a plaque with those words on it as a reminder.
A month or so after my dad’s passing in 2012, we went to a Brass Concert dedicated to my dad.
I was totally shocked and surprised that the actual focal song of dedication at the conclusion of the concert was none other than “It is Well With My Soul.” It was an absolutely beautiful arrangement, and it was astounding because I had never told anyone that it was my theme song for that time period.
The Lord, knew, however, and I burst into tears at that awesome confirmation as it played.
I believe that the song needs to be resurrected once again as my theme song for these coming times.
