"Prepare the Way ...

the Lord is at hand!"

As I have said before and will continue to say until we are taken away: the Words, the Dreams, are all coming faster and faster to His Children. This blog has three contributors in it. One is done in written form, one is a photographer, and one is in a video.

I am placing a link to a short rapture dream video here. She mentions the importance of not looking back (remember Lot's wife)...
Rapture Dream on August 14th by Harpazo Rapturo

The following is a post from Rene De Villiers 8/17/2016 at 9:31am:
Hello everyone,
About a week or two ago, I woke up with the words "prepare the way, the Lord is at hand!"
Prepare the way - To make ready beforehand for a specific purpose, as for an event or occasion.
At hand - If something is at hand, near at hand, or close at hand, it is very near in place or time.
The next night I had a dream, about a wedding. In the dream I knew it was an event that has NEVER happened before and would be the first time something like this would be recorded in history! Everyone was talking with excitement about this wedding. All of us who was part of this wedding, was so excited and knew it was extremely special. I was in this massive ball room, and there were white drapings from the roof, with crystal lights, it was all so beautiful. I saw many many brides in this room, but I knew there were other brides all over the world that were also preparing for this wedding day! We were all wearing our corsets, our hair was done and make up. There was a stage in this ball room, and a woman was announcing that the flower girls will do their rehearsals for the actual wedding, I saw many flower girls walking out with their beautiful dresses one after the other. All the brides to be were so overwhelmed and excited to see the flower girls, all ready to go. The woman then made an announcement it's time, that we could all go put on our wedding gowns. The brides all ran with joy to put on their dresses, every bride knew exactly where their gowns were, there were MANY of gowns. There were so much joy, and everyone helped one another with their dresses. I believe this is a dream from God about the bride, and it shows how ready we are, and that it's VERY close. We are about to put on our dresses for our bridegroom! Putting on your dress on wedding day, is the last thing you do before you see your groom. I know a while ago, Rhonda Empson had a dream of these brides preparing for the wedding the next day, and their hair was already done! Now we are are really approaching that moment, where we see our groom.
The next morning I woke up with the word Harpazo, I've never heard of this word before. I googled it and this is the definition: to seize, carry off by force, to seize on, claim for one's self eagerly,to snatch out or away. The word "Rapture" comes from the Latin word "Rapturo", which is simply a translation of the Greek word "Harpazo."
The next night I had the following dream: We were at a gathering, but it wasn't just christians. I was outside, talking to people, the best way I can describe what happened next.. Is there where I was standing on a hill, I looked up because of a strange sound I heard, in the sky. It was like many, many meteors drawing back into the heavens! Then I could see more close up and I saw it was people being raptured. I started shouting to the people around me, that It's the rapture, Jesus is here!! I ran to them and asked if they knew Jesus. Many people were saying no, I started leading them into the sinners prayer, because I knew it was nearly our time to go up. The next scene the sky opened up, and I could see deeper into the heavenly, I saw people hugging each other, they were all so happy to see one another! There were so much joy. I know in real life, it will be in a twinkle of an eye, and there won't be time to lead people into the sinners prayer, and everyone will be raptured at the same time. Brothers and sisters, I really believe this is important and God is showing us how close the rapture is!
The week before that, I dreamed also of the rapture. I heard a weird loud sound and I woke up in my dream, and the sky were all lighted up, and I looked at my husband, we held hands because we knew it was the rapture. We then started lifting up of the bed. I woke myself up, I thought it was really happening!
God is showing us that we as his children, are already prepared to meet Jesus! He's coming for us any moment now!
I hope this encouraged you all!
God bless

I am sharing to encourage all of us! We are ambassadors of Jesus and we have lost souls to bring to Him. This is the first time I have heard mention that, during the actual rapture, 'we must not look back.' I feel in my spirit how significant this direction is! As we are being taken away, continue to look up, look at Jesus. Do not look down or around or take your eyes off Jesus and Heaven ... remember Lot's wife!

Maranatha,
Anna

The Time Has Come ...

to be faithful to fulfill our purpose!

I am sharing the following prayer, written by Becky Thomas, that it may be a blessing to many others as Holy Spirit leads them to it and touches their hearts.

Dear Heavenly Father, Praise Your Holy Name ... The time has come for Us to fulfill scripture Lord ... show us ... each one of us, what our role is in these last days ... So we can be used at the perfect time and in the best way ... We surrender all to You and want Your Will in our lives. We pray we can be counted worthy to escape what is about to happen but, if we can be used in any way, make us realize what Job is ours personally ... resurrect righteousness in us ... We open the door and invite you in to come and break bread with us ... to pitch your tent with us ... to empower us in knowledge and truth ... engulf us with Your Glory ... as You are The savior to our eyes and ears and heart and mind and souls ...

In His Perfect Time, God gives messages ...

that, when fit together, form the bigger picture! 
Ezekiel 33:3

This is from Lyne' Rogers Brown 8/12/16:

"Hey Friends, I feel that God wants me to share some things that He has been bombarding me with over the past few days. That sounds more negative than I mean it to, but He has been so consistent in what He is saying that I believe that I am supposed to share. Please read this message prayerfully. I only want you to hear what God is saying, nothing from me. There is both warning and good news. We are NOT to be afraid!! If you read it, please read it to the end.
I have woken up with the same chorus in my head for the past week:
In the eye of the storm, You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
I also have been given a multitude of other people's dream to interpret. God has just recently shown me that He has gifted me with the ability to interpret dreams...it used to be just dreams He gave me, but now He is speaking to me in other's dreams too. There are some very common threads that I want to share.
A storm of great proportions is coming...we are actually in the middle of it right now, but the winds are going to be blowing harder in the days ahead. The storm is here because God wants to wake up the church and use the remnant that is now awake to bring many to Himself.
We (His church) are going to have everything we need to make it through tough times ahead, but we are going to see some of this storm before He comes back to get us. He is coming back very soon and we must keep our eyes on Jesus. Do not be afraid when storms hit...we will not be here during the tribulation, but may wonder as we see the increasing winds of this storm.
We need to brace ourselves and be in prayer. I think something significant is going to happen this Fall. I do not know exactly what, but many are getting the same timing in warnings. Many that I respect as being faithful watchmen/women are getting consistent messages with increasing intensity.
Please hear this LOUD and CLEAR. Do not be afraid! We will have EVERYTHING we need if we keep our eyes on Jesus. In the eye of the storm, things are calm and peaceful. Our calm in the midst of the chaos will be what draws others to Christ. The only reason God is allowing the storm to hit while we are still here is to wake up His sleeping church and save many more before the tribulation. Put on your spiritual armor and get ready for battle, but have GREAT COURAGE! We are going home soon!!"

What MUST you believe ...

to be a Christian? 

Five Fundamental of the Faith by JVIM

These 5 are nonnegotiable:

FIVE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE FAITH

1) The Deity of our God Jesus Christ (John 1:1; John 20:28; Hebrews 1:8-9)

2) The Virgin Birth (Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23; Luke 1:27)

3) The Blood Atonement (Acts 20:28; Romans 3:25, 5:9; Ephesians 1:7; Hebrews 9:12-14)

4) The Bodily Resurrection (Luke 24:36-46; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4, 15:14-15)

5) The inerrancy of the scriptures themselves (Psalms 12:6-7; Romans 15:4; 2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20)

And those who disagree with any of the above doctrines are not Christians at all. Rather, they are the true heretics.  

These five basic doctrines are rooted in God's Word and if you do not believe wholeheartedly with all five, then you are a heretic [Strong's G141].

Titus 3:10 A man that is an heretick after the first and second admonition reject;

The time is so very close for our departure. Many people have head not heart knowledge. Some believe they are Christians because they attend church services. Some accept a wide scope of doctrine thinking that they are enlightened. Do not believe that for a second.

Salvation Prayer

Remember, There Will Come A Day

... when we will stand before God and give account of every idle word we have ever spoken. 

Matthew 12:36-37 (KJV)

36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

All who come here and read these words: each person (no matter who they are) is precious to God. Where is the Lord in the condemnation of souls? Those who are lost, deceived, following false teachings; these should be fervently prayed for, not held up to the world to be ridiculed. The Pharisee spirit is one that says 'I am so glad I am not like that other person! I truly know God!'
God gave me these words to share here. Please go to this link, read it and pray about it.

The Pharisee Spirit - still active today

Excerpt: John Fischer, author of the book '12 Steps for the Recovering Pharisee (like me)', writes
'What makes Pharisaical sin so dangerous is that it disguises itself as a form of enlightenment. This is what Jesus meant when he said,
"If the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!" (Matthew 6:23)
The darkness is great because one is deluded into thinking it is light. You think you are seeing better than anyone else, when, in fact, you can't see at all. This means the idea that what you can't see is farthest from you. A blind person knows he is blind. A Pharisee thinks he can see, and this is why the "light" within him is actually darkness.
The mark of Holy Spirit produced 'light' is humility.
So I said: "Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The LORD of hosts." (Isaiah 6:5 )
When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!" (Luke 5:8)
Whereas the Pharisee 'light' produces the darkness of spiritual arrogance. They were proud of their righteous behaviour and drew their self worth from their righteous behaviour by setting their righteousness against the sinfulness in others around them.
"The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, 'God, I thank You that I am not like other men-extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. (Luke 18:11)
God always opposes the proud (James 4:6) hence Jesus' harsh proclamations of woe to them. End Excerpt.

I give this out of love not condemnation. May we each examine our hearts and our motives that we may be Wise Virgins awaiting our Bridegroom!

Maranatha,
Anna

Are You Willing ...

to lay down your life and surrender yourself completely to the Lord?

Each of us are different children and do things differently. God knows our innermost being and He will help us with this, if we only ask Him to. I have learned, and am still learning, that for me to do this, I must seek the Lord with all my heart, mind, soul and strength. I must love my neighbor as myself. I must die to my flesh nature, letting all my worldly wants go and seeking what God has for me above everything. 

To lay down our lives is a moment-by-moment, day-by-day decision that we make. As we learn to walk in love and obedience to God, this will become easier. Here are some verses to read to remind us of what we are doing and why we are doing it.  Bible Verses About Surrender

John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

I leave you with a blessing that the Lord showed me so that I would not whine or have a pity party in any circumstance I might find myself. May you be lifted up as well when you see what God can and will do for a person who gives his all to Him!

You say you've never seen a miracle? I challenge you to watch this video and you will never be able to say that again!

The Holy Spirit - We NEED Him!

Jesus himself said so! Notice, He did not ask, Jesus COMMANDED!
Acts 1:4,5
4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

Who is man that any should contradict GOD and say what was given was temporary and does not operate today? 
I am referring to the cessationism doctrine of lies: 
In Christianity, cessationism is the doctrine that spiritual gifts such as speaking in tongues, prophecy and healing ceased with the original twelve apostles. This is generally opposed to continuationism, which teaches that the Holy Spirit may bestow the spiritual gifts on persons other than the original twelve apostles at any time.

There are churches, big churches regarding number of members, that are in this cessationism camp. I pray for one such mega-church in my area whose pastors and leadership proclaim the gospel but deny the power thereof. 

2 Timothy 3:5

Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

There are many with the 'pharisee spirit', not just in the real world, but on YouTube especially, so be watchful! Take special care if you see this type of comment in their 'belief statement' based on scriptures that are isolated to support this lie (Satan is the one that doesn't want you to know of the Power! Pharisee spirit is the one that perpetrates this lie ... even today!): 
We believe that some gifts of the Holy Spirit such as speaking in tongues and miraculous healings were temporary. We believe that speaking in tongues was never the common or necessary sign of the baptism nor of the filling of the Spirit, and that the deliverance of the body from sickness or death awaits the consummation of our salvation in the resurrection. (Acts 4:8, 31; Romans 8:23; 1 Corinthians 13:8.)

Understanding the Pharisee spirit

Pharisees did not move in the gifts and anointing power of the Spirit, had no understanding of the gifts and anointing power of the Spirit, and therefore concluded that anyone who did had to be moving in demonic power.

Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, "This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub, the ruler of the demons." (Matthew 12:24)

A very, very dangerous thing to say, Jesus warned them.

"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. (Matthew 12:31)

When Jesus healed the man with the withered hand in church, they attacked Him for doing it on the Sabbath.

And behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. And they asked Him, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" that they might accuse Him. (Matthew 12:10)

Time is short and, as a watchman called by the Lord, I give this warning, not to lift up myself, but to lift up the Holy One and reveal the truths He makes known to me and other watchmen. Your blood will not be on my hands due to my disobedience in sharing this Word of Warning!

Maranatha,
Anna

Perhaps you are aware ... perhaps not

Fullness of Time of Gentiles is drawing to a close. 
Romans 11:25 “For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that hardening in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.”

I don't watch TV: no that DOES NOT make me better than anyone else! I have found it to be a waste of time and there is no truth to be found anywhere except in God's Word! 
2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

That said, I did have a couple things come to attention today.

"NASA Television’s Space Station Live program will be phased out in August and discontinued Sept. 1."

The days are becoming darker. Pray to close these doors the enemy is working to open by praying God's protection back to Him: Psalm 91. Ask God to deliver you from evil.
God's 911 number:            

Psalm 91:1

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

Knowledge share of word meanings:
Portals [Strong's G2374] are doors, created by God as entrances and exits. Used by spiritual beings - holy angels and fallen angels.
CERN is trying to mix the natural realm with the spiritual realm regarding portals. Satan has influenced men and women to work to open portals that God never intended to be opened.

Isaiah 55:6 

Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

The message to you who are not saved is John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

The message to you who are saved is Matthew 24:45-47 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

Please, let His Servants be about Our Father's business! Maranatha!
