Patience in the Lessons

For the past three days, I have been tried to my core.  First, I was intensely resisting the Holy Spirit in putting out the past prophecy about Damascus and Jerusalem, but He had given me not only the standard confirmation that I would usually receive from Him in putting out a word; He had also gone above and beyond with me.  I had no excuses to hold onto it.  But ever since that hit the Internet, I have been plunged into a pit of despair and lies and questioning to a level that rocked the very foundation of faith in me.  I was in a constant state of casting the thoughts upon the Throne of Grace and also feeling intense physical weakness and pain.  Satan knew I felt vulnerable, and he was sure to capitalize on it!
Yesterday, God forced me to take all of those doubts and fears and size them up with His perfect promises.  The bottom line: was God going to let down His people who seek Him?  Satan wanted me to think so.  Next to all the fears, I was hearing all day yesterday the Scripture, “Those who trust in Him will never be put to shame.”  I had to stop worrying, stop trying to figure it out, stop feeling like my world was about to collapse.  I had to trust, trust, trust!  Period.

This morning, I still had not learned my lesson.  I was in the shower in prayer, and also rehearsing in my mind what I was going to say in the next blog post: “I repent, I clearly went off the rails somewhere, and I’m going to stop writing.  God will not be mocked, and if I have spoken presumptuously of God, then I should never be heard from again.”
Then, suddenly, the verse came into my mind, “To the LORD, a day is as a thousand years.”  The prophecy of July 25 says, “Let this be a sign to you, for on the day of the blood moon, when the cities of Damascus and Jerusalem are destroyed, you will know that I AM the LORD!”  Surely there is no disputing this!  It is very specific!  But God disputed it with me this morning.  I then began to ask Him, “Lord, we know that the time of your coming is at hand.  Surely the ‘day’ spoken of in this prophecy is not a thousand years.”  The Lord affirmed that in my spirit, so I asked, “What then is the ‘day’ of the blood moon speaking of?”  I asked this question multiple times while asking for the covering of Jesus and the binding of every false spirit.  I kept hearing, “‘Day’ speaks of a season.”  I should have learned this a couple weeks ago when I had been hearing in my spirit that God’s people would be going to Mount Zion “tomorrow.”  Well, “tomorrow” came and went, and I had been very disturbed about why I heard that and why it had not been fulfilled.  Later, the Lord directed me to this verse: “But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called ‘today,’ that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin” (Hebrews 3:13).  And again in John 9:4: “We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.”  I had understood at that time that “today” referred to the present season of the gospel of grace and that “tomorrow” would therefore represent the season of wrath and darkness.  If I had just applied this lesson three days ago, I would have been saved a great deal of agony, but God is perfect in His purposes, revealing what He wills in His time, to keep us humble and ever on our face before Him.

Thus says the LORD of Hosts, we are in the season now of great calamity. The earth has reached its point of no return and all its elements will be laid bare. I AM the LORD and I am not mocked! A man reaps what he sows! The blood moon is a sign to you that the Day of the LORD is at hand and the season of Great Tribulation has begun.

So Lord, is the DAY of the LORD an actual day in human time, or is it a season of days?My daughter, the Day of the LORD is a season of days.

It is a period of Great Tribulation unlike anything ever seen on the earth. My daughter, I have loved you with an everlasting love, and remember, even as I exhort all of my children, you MUST NOT EVER look at the wind and the waves! Always keep your eyes fixed on me. The intensity of the devil’s lies will greatly increase in frequency and determination. He desires to see you ruined! Never listen to them; always look through them. Do you trust me? That is the bottom line. Hold on, my children, I am at the door!
