“I am amazed at how little most of My church is responding to the warnings that I have given them. I have called them to repent of their sins of pride and selfishness. They have responded by consulting Me less and relying more on their own strength. I have urged them to sell what they have and buy gold from Me refined in the fire. They have responded by using My blessings to pad their own comfort areas. I have called them to a crucified life, one that is dead to self and alive only to My Word. They have responded by living a life of hedonism in the midst of need.

"My servants go without necessary tools while the provision for tools is converted into play toys and castles made of sand. My Word is used for excuses to remain justified in sin. My heart for the lost is ignored. Even when I have opened the door to allow judgment to enter the world, you, My church, ignore the warnings and continue on your path of proven destruction. When I am placed in second place of anything, it is not good. I will not remain there for long, no matter how self-reliant and powerful you think you are.

"Be assured that I am producing a series of final warnings to My church. You must repent now. You must surrender fully to Me while there is still time. You have no idea how close you are to the total destruction of your world as you know it. Soon all of your self–serving gold will be worth nothing. Your power will be gone. Your influence will be scorned. Your safety nets will be torn and destroyed. You will be totally bankrupt, because you have lost what you have relied upon and have ignored true wealth. You will become slaves to those who speak languages that you do not understand. They will inherit your vast holdings and dwellings built of greed. Do not ignore My warnings any longer. Sell out fully to Me now. The day will come when you will wish that you had.”

Isaiah 48:3  NIV 

“I foretold the former things long ago, my mouth announced them and I made them known; then suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.”

Jeremiah 5:15-19 AMP

15) Behold, I am bringing a nation upon you from afar, O house of Israel, says the Lord.  It is a mighty and enduring nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language you do not know, nor can you understand what they say.

16) Their quiver is [filled with deadly missiles] like an open sepulcher [filled with dead bodies; the foes] are all mighty men (heroes).

17) They shall consume your harvest and your food; they shall consume your sons and your daughters; they shall consume your flocks and your herds; they shall consume your vines and your fig trees.  They shall break down and impoverish your fortified cities in which you trust, with the sword [they shall destroy them].

18) But even in those days, says the Lord, I will not make a full and complete end of you.

19) And when your people say, Why has the Lord our God done all these things to us? then you shall answer them, As you have forsaken Me, says the Lord, and have served strange gods in your land, so shall you serve strangers (gods) in a land that is not yours.

I believe that you should bookmark this message. When I first received it, I felt in my heart that it was a timely message; but it was a message that should be shared by those of you who will be able to minister to others when times become more intense.

I am aware that these “Father’s Heart” messages are e-mailed to probably some of the most “sold out” members of the church – you who have already heard the wooing of the Lord and are drawing close with all of your heart. Your sincerity is more than likely already bringing life to many in your daily walk with the Lord and your personal outreaches are preparing countless numbers for bridehood. Heed this message, of course; but also place it in your portfolio.

In keeping with our directive of equipping you in your personal outreaches, I believe that this message has been given at this time for now and for future use. Prepare to use it over and over to stimulate conversation, impart conviction, and explain the times and seasons that will soon be upon us. May you use it wisely and may the power of the Holy Spirit powerfully anoint all that you do. You are valuable and an honor to love.

In Your mercy, prepare us, Lord,
