Confirmation


A few weeks back, I wrote a post called "IT IS SO". In this post I shared what God had shown me. He showed me what it would be like, hear on this earth, in the next few months. It would be like when God left Christ at the cross and Christ said "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me."

Well, I am mot one to look for the Biblical truth behind what God says to me. I just believe it to be so. But, for many this is the way to proof of the truth.

I have a young man whom I mentor. He accepts what God tells me as truth, but always heads to the Bible for confirmation. Many have rebuked what I have relayed on this word, so my young friends truth are important.

God will take out His spirit from the land.

2 Thessalonians 2:7 (Amplified Bible) For the mystery of lawlessness (that hidden principle of rebellion against constituted authority) is already at work in the world, [but it is] restrained only until he who restrains is taken out of the way.

Many say this can not be, because the Spirit lives within us. Even though it is here in black and white they refuse to listen. So, this last weekend, I again, was at the same location as the last retreat. And, again, I placed myself away from the camp at 5 am, in the rain and talked with God.

He told me that He does not take the Spirit from us but, from the land. Do people not understand that the Spirit can be in the land as easy as He can be in us. Without the Spirit in the land, lawlessness will be out of control.

Amos 8: 11-12 Behold, the days are coming, says the Lord God, when I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but [a famine] for hearing the words of the Lord. And [the people] shall wander from sea to sea and from the north even to the east; they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord [inquiring for and requiring it as one requires food], but shall not find it.

I hope that for all whom doubt what God has said to me, will now believe. Prepare for the Lord comes.

While I was sitting talking to the Lord this weekend, I had a bit of trouble. I had no questions for Him. I just sat there and waited for Him to speak. Thoughts would come to my head and then an answer. I said out loud. "Am I talking to myself?" It was different than our usual conversation. I left a little in doubt that I was hearing from God. Then He confirmed what I was hearing.

My mind was mostly concerned with our farm. Was I doing the right thing by getting it ready for people to run to when things got bad. These are the things that God said to me.

"Calamity will pour out like rain, but you will be refreshed knowing that I am returning."

"Find joy in all things".

Then I started to wonder and ask questions.

"Lord, how will I know you?"

He answered, "You will find me in the rocks, in the trees, in the people."

So, I asked a question that I have pondered for a while. I had been taken away into two visions at two different times that were similar. One was my own execution. The other, my young friends execution. So, I asked, are these truth.

He answered. "There are two paths. One is yours and one is mine. Stay out of the city."

Not sure if I was manipulating the conversation, I went back to the lodge and opened my Bible. It opened to Isaiah 26:3-4 and then He told me to read verse 20.

Isaiah 26:3-4 (Amplified Bible) You will guard him and keep him in perfect and constant peace whose mind [both its inclination and its character] is stayed on You, because he commits himself to You, leans on You, and hopes confidently in You. So trust in the Lord (commit yourself to Him, lean on Him, hope confidently in Him) forever; for the Lord God is an everlasting Rock [the Rock of Ages].

And 20.

Isaiah 26:20 (Amplified Bible) Come, my people, enter your chambers and shut your doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until the [Lord's] wrath is past.

My own Biblical confirmation. Thank you God.
