If you have not yet done so, please read my post from earlier today of a prophecy recently given to Julie, daughter of the King. Pay particular attention to the reference to the time of God’s indignation. This refers to the time we live in now, the time prophesied by Isaiah almost three thousand years ago.
O Lord, in distress they sought you;
they poured out a whispered prayer
when your discipline was upon them.
17 Like a pregnant woman
who writhes and cries out in her pangs
when she is near to giving birth,
so were we because of you, O Lord;
18 we were pregnant, we writhed,
but we have given birth to wind.
We have accomplished no deliverance in the earth,
and the inhabitants of the world have not fallen.
19 Your dead shall live; their bodies shall rise.
You who dwell in the dust, awake and sing for joy!
For your dew is a dew of light,
and the earth will give birth to the dead.
20 Come, my people, enter your chambers,
and shut your doors behind you;
hide yourselves for a little while
until the fury has passed by.
21 For behold, the Lord is coming out from his place
to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity,
and the earth will disclose the blood shed on it,
and will no more cover its slain. (Isaiah 26:16-21 ESV)
The King James Version renders verse 20 above thus: “Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.”
Have you considered that we have now entered into the time of God’s indignation? Have you not noticed the total lawlessness that now rules the earth? Have you not seen the barbarians attacking civilization from all quarters, barbarians which go by many names, the elite, the illuminati, the New World Order, ISIS, ISIL, or even illegal immigrants? What is really happening now? Has God lost control?
No, read Julie’s prophecy again. Toward the end of God’s word to her she writes:
Out of My infinite mercy, I will allow great judgments, calamity upon calamity and distress of nations. I do this because of My love. I do this great shaking because many will come to Me in their cries of anguish. I must show this world who I am in order to save many. I must do this because I am just and righteous, but not only for this reason; I do this to bring more souls to Me.
Know that every leader, every prince, every council that has been established on this earth is only permitted because I have allowed it. Nothing is out of My control. Have I not told you in My Word that I will always use evil for good? Nothing is permitted that I have not ordained, so as you see, events and situations that are seemingly out of control, insanity and such evil, know that My hand is in this too. I will use all of this to turn cold hearts back to Me.
Although Satan inspires men to do evil, it is God who created Satan to do what he does. And why would he do this, you may ask? God told Julie in this prophecy. He does it so that the remnant whom he has chosen will be formed into his very image. Did you notice the use the pronoun “we” and “us” in Julie’s prophecy. Why would God say that? Why would he include us lowly humans in a reference to Himself? Recall what John wrote long ago,
28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming. 29 If you know thathe is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him.
3 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2 Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears[f] we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. 3 And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure. (1 John 2:28-3:3 ESV)
Satan deceives Christians into believing that they can never be “as God.” He even uses his own first deception to mankind through Eve in order to accomplish this. God uses all of Scripture, however, to train his overcomers and to make them into his own image of righteousness. He calls these few the “remnant,” the “firstborn of creation,” the “overcomers,” the “sons of God,” and “all Israel.” They are the 144,000 virgins of Revelation 14.
Then I looked, and behold, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads.2 And I heard a voice from heaven like the roar of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder. The voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing on their harps, 3 and they were singing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth. 4 It is these who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are virgins. It is thesewho follow the Lamb wherever he goes. These have been redeemed from mankind as firstfruits for God and the Lamb, 5 and in their mouth no lie was found, for they are blameless. (Revelation 14:1-5)
Like Jacob the 144,000 began in the flesh and were supplanters by nature, always grasping at the heel of another to overcome in their carnal nature. Ultimately though, like Jacob, they succumb to the Holy Spirit and walk with a limp, for they learn that they cannot prevail in the flesh.
Later in Julie’s prophecy God says,
Pray for this radical faith I speak of. Pray for courage and steadfastness. Plant your feet upon the Rock. You will not be shaken. Set your eyes upon Me, your Creator and My Son your King and your Messiah. Hold fast to all of the truths that I have taught you. Do not be frightened. Do not be afraid when all of this befalls this earth. Men’s hearts will fail them because of what they see. But you My people have been warned, you have been prepared, for I always tell My people what I am about to do. Hide your eyes for a moment while My indignation passes, knowing that My great refining fire will make all things new.
Read the last line again, hide your eyes for a moment while My indignation passes….” God’s indignation has now begun and it will grow in intensity. How do we hide our eyes from it? We don’t study it. We don’t get into the deep things of Satan. We don’t need to know all the conspiracies and evil programs going on. Instead, we need to think upon what is good and wholesome. We need to pray for courage and steadfastness, for only we will stand as rocks, as the Mountains of Israel, when everything around us collapses. Yes, society is collapsing. Yes, evil is coming throughout the lands of the earth. But our God reigns and our God now says,
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and see the recompense of the wicked.
9 Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my refuge[b]—
10 no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder;
the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.
14 “Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
I will protect him, because he knows my name.
15 When he calls to me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.” (Psalm 91)
Psalm 91 speaks of the time of God’s indignation. Let us who are called by God’s Name now hide for awhile until the indignation passes. And while we hide let us continue to build ourselves up in the faith of Jesus Christ as God begins to transform these lowly bodies into his glorious image!
