#fastforfamily

During intercession for America this morning, I saw the following:

I was praying for church family in Connecticut and I saw (not for the first time) geysers erupting in various places: first in Connecticut , then all over New England. I heard the sound as great iron caps were blown off them and upwards. 

At the same time, I saw the Bible Belt - families - the voices of children: Some very small, some older - some of them known to me:  And the Bible Belt was being unbuckled**  - It was, as if there were too many families…too much of the fullness of God, to keep it buckled! It was an awakening - that heavily involved what the Bible-belt is all about: The Family. (This is also not the first time I have seen, or prophesied this.)

And, with fear and trembling, I felt the Lord say “I will for a season, bring down the “American way”, so that the people can recognize MY WAY. I am and will shake the great monuments of humanism in this nation…” (I thought about Washington DC)

“…and uncover its original Foundation Stone: For I remember the prayers and supplications offered up to me…” (I thought about the year 1620 and a storm battered schooner, landed at Plymouth Rock; a small group of pilgrims from England, who had risked life and limb to find religious freedom, on these beautiful shores). 

The Lord continued…”You have forgotten - yet I have not. You have placed pagan pyramids over this sacred covenant. (Again I saw Washington DC)…”But in the end, because of the prayers of My people, I will uncover this foundation and bring up the stone, that I may bring Salvation over this Land…and from here to the ends of the Earth. But it will not be to your glory America. For in a place of weakness and humble dependence upon me, just as were those pilgrims who originally settled on these shores: THIS is the place from which I will move by My Spirit“ says the Lord. “You must LEARN to find that place, setting everything else aside, for the time is at hand.

“For even in these times - in the midst of birth-pangs, it is being said “We are a great nation, with a great Dream” - even among My own People this is being said! - and you still pursue this “dream” - for yourselves - for your children - for your children’s children! 

“But this is not My dream, for you, or your children or your children’s children!  Salvation is no dream! It is a time to be fully awake, sober-minded and alert. I have ONE WAY…“

(I immediately thought about the numerous prestigious schools and colleges we have been putting our children through, in the name of “greatness” - only to lose so many of them to humanism and Self- Actualization on the other side…and still others, to be lost to depression and anxiety related illness and addiction - because of this same pressure - this push in the pursuit of wealth…of SELF! And why do we as Godly parents and grandparents lead them in this “way”? Is it truly for them - or is it really for us?) 

The Lord continued…”I have ONE WAY - and you, My People KNOW this Way (John14:4). You must speak and lead these who are lost through the true Way made for them by My Son…even if this causes all to hate you. This is the Way of My Cross - the Way many have trodden before you - and the Way that has been paved by the Chief Corner Stone…The Blood…of My only Son. (Acts 4:12; Eph. 2:20)

“I have ONE WAY - to deny yourself, take up your cross - and follow me. For whoever wants to save his life will lose it (because this world is marked for judgment)- but whoever loses his life for My sake will TRULY find life everlasting! You must learn to follow The Way of Love (John 15:13) - for your children - and your children’s children!”

I knew the Lord was saying that THIS is what we must learn, through the surrendering of our own lives, to do - not only for ourselves, but for our children- and our children’s children! 

THIS is what we should be teaching them!…The Way of Jesus…the Way of the Cross: that this life (what we see, what we hear, what we HAVE) is temporary…that ONLY the invisible things of God are eternal - and the only way we can teach this to others is by doing ourselves: When the Lord said “You must LEAD them…” He truly meant LEAD - by example. We must truly lay down things of this world, (this will look different for each of us) and follow Jesus - if we want to LEAD others to also truly follow Him!

**Part of a prophetic utterance by Kim Clement: “I will unbuckle the Bible Belt…”

I do not know the exact timing of these events. Test all prophesy - hold on to the good (1Thess. 5:20-21) 

There has been much pride - especially since 9/11: But there is also HOPE - in the form of a Covenant made 400 years ago…and a Salvation which will reach its climatic fulfillment in Revelation 7:9-17.  I know the Lord is GIVING US TIME to repent and prepare!
