The following that you are about to read are words that the Lord shared with me throughout several days in this month of June. Quotes are written directly = as the Lord spoke them to me, others are dreams, scriptures, and visions revea= led to me, as well as direct words of instruction spoken by the Lord.

My prayer is that you will read, examine and seek the Lord, and take on the responsibility placed upon you as a believer. We are in a very serious time, and that which was warned to us in May’s word—we are facing som= e of the results of those circumstances, even serious events to come.

“Prepare to meet each day with growing expectation because this is a time that the p= lans that I have for you will take flight. You will begin to see the manifestation of your life come alive. For this is a time of visitation and = a time of hearing and understanding; a time for making proper adjustments so that my purposes may be establishe= d, says the Lord. So stay before my presence in worship and in your time of quiet devotion, and I will reveal to you greater truths and even revelations that will help you along your way. For in my presence, I will strengthen and encourage your heart.”

“For even in this day of trouble and chaos, I will visit and speak to you, my pe= ople, and I will give you peace to let you know that I am your Lord, and I will uphold you with my own hand. The problems that you see before you will not = be remedied overnight, but know that I am able to change things in a moment= 217;s notice.” The Lord spoke to me and let me know that what we are lookin= g at in this Gulf of Mexico situa= tion is serious in nature. I had a dream that I was in a place: <= /p>

The setting seemed to be in a government buildin= g of some kind and it appeared to be the lower level---everyone seemed to be mov= ing rather quickly, trying to get things done, and I seemed to be a part of the operation and not just an observer. I was going into the hallway where there were some stairs going up, and a man was carry a large royal blue poster and some banners with him, and he said in a loud voice----"The EPA is depleting!!" during the dream ---he kept going and coming back and say= ing the same thing until he had done this four times. Then I turned and asked, = “I need you to tell me what you mean so that even a child could understandR= 21; and he responded and said, “Well, this is the fi= rst day and everything needs to be moving forth, and we need to get things done, but instead, they are fighting and arguing.” I was then told to do a briefing fo= r the people in the building, and I walked to a large blackboard and wrote "1989." (At the time that I had the dre= am, I didn’t realize that the Exxon Valdives situation occurred in 1989.)

After that, I woke up. And although I wasn’= ;t fearful, I knew that the Gulf situation is beyond serious and that there wa= s a cover up concerning how serious it is. Also, the result we are seeing has = to do with how we as the body of Christ have allowed government injustices, the n= egative treatment of Israel from within our own government, and everything from the abortion issue to the growing immorality that has a voice and influence in = our nation, and now it has caused an open door for the enemy to enter in and co= me against this nation. (I will explain future interpretations of the dream in= a coming issue.)

Time of Awakening/Open Heaven/Take your nation back through prayer and repentanc= e.

“Know that as this is a time of an open heaven and a great awakening amongst my people—I will open your eyes so that you may see the most important things in your life during this time. Will you unite and come together in prayer and seek resolutions? Will you fight against the enemies of your day= ? Because I have placed in you the power to overcome. Wh= en I brought Israel into the land of Canaan, and it was determined that was occup= ied, did it cease to be their land? No. Because of what I established with them by my covenant, and that always remained with them. So they went forth to war and= won that which was their land, for I gave to them the land to possess it. ̶= 0;

“So I say to you this day, ‘Now take back your land which was given to yo= u. Pray it back. Win it back with righteous integrity. Win it back with love a= nd unity in my body, which should begin within the house of the Lord, amongst = the leadership. Win it back with the unity of my leadership coming together, humbling themselves before me. Win it back with = the beauty of holiness enriched in the lives of my people, for they will know h= ow to rebuild.’ ”

“Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.&= #8221; Matthew 12:25

“So I say unto you today, = 216;Stand as a body of warriors ready to fight for kingdom righteousness-----for I sh= all lead you forth into the battlefield, and the fight will be established by y= our commitment to the truth and righteousness in my word; and your battle cry w= ill be the fervent prayers that will bring forth victory.’ ” <= /o:p>

“If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, the= n I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.̶= 1; 2 Chronicles 7:14

“For as you cry out to me in repentance, I will open wa= ys in places that you would have never believed could be revealed as ways, nor wo= uld you have ever expected. Answers shall come to remedy great dilemmas, and th= ere will be a great humbling amongst the government because of my dealings, for= the time for change has reached the doorsteps of the leaders of the nations; an= d I will uncover, I will bring forth change. So look towards the future, for it= ’s full of light, for the kingdom of this world will become the kingdom of your God. So prepare yourselves before me. Cry out---with sack cloth and ashes. = Pray that I will come, that I will visit, and that I would bring down the heaven= s to change circumstances to my divine will and purposes, says the Lord.” =

“For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart= is perfect toward him.” 2 Chronicles 16:9

I had a vision about storms coming, and there were violent winds—intercessors and watchman ---we m= ust pray against these ill winds that are coming –they appeared to be destructive winds---I believe that if we pray, we will be able to les= sen the strength of these coming winds.

The coming glory upon God’s people will c= arry a protection over His people. If we pray, I believe that the Lord wi= ll stretch out His hand of guidance and protection over us, and there shall be peace even in the midst of the storms and calm in the midst of trouble.

“And in the midst of all these things I shall watch over you and keep you, for I love you with an everlasting love. But you must fight, for I have given you= the power and the authority to overcome. So drop petty differences within your ranks, and direct the power that I have given to you in the right direction= ---against the wiles of the enemy. Rise up and take your land back.” =

“Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory o= f the LORD is risen upon you.” Isaiah 60:1

“And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake = out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast= off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.” = Romans 13:11-12

The Lord revealed to me that in the coming few months, we are about to see such trouble; but in the midst of this trouble,= we will see prayer come forth in this land like never before: prayer revivals = and people being ushered into the kingdom and a great harvest of souls are wooed into the kingdom. And what Satan mean for evil, will be turned around for t= he good and the ultimate healing of this nation. (see th= e Word of the Lord 2010 at www.carpent= erstouch.org)
