CANDLE
STICK PARK! THE PARK THAT ROCKS - THE
LIGHT GOES OUT
It
was a cool late fall day as the wind blew across the land; America is shaken by
a strong wind from heaven; the sound of panic, the sound of fear; can you hear
the sound? The battle cry is great and many are being tossed by confusion in
this very hour. Yes, the wind is strong as it roars throughout the land. The wind blows and the candlestick of America
has vanished and no man can work. So I
say unto you, work while the light is with you for in a short time it will be
gone. The vision of the Candlestick reminds me of the Candlestick Park
earthquake of 1989; the day the lights went out. There shall come upon you a
great earthquake and you will shake from the west to the east and to the heartland
of America.
Keep your eyes on the Golden Gate Bridge; the Golden Gate of
America; a Golden Idol of America, which is Gold. Remember, an all time low is
coming to Wall Street with the collapse of the Dollar. I sense we are on the brink of an outbreak of
a 911 event and a war. I hear that a
surprise has been achieved; Tora, Tora ,Tora! I know you have heard me talk
about this and I sense, now more than ever, it is at the door. The
Golden Gate goes up like the price of Gold; Riots break out, Wall Street
crashes; the fall of America!
Candle Stick Vision: I heard a voice that said,” Lost angels”, I then saw a multitude of dark demon angels that shout out, “the people of LA has sold their souls to us”. At that moment I saw Candlestick Park in darkness. I was taken up above Candlestick Park and a mighty Holy Angel descended from the heavens. He was over Candlestick Park when he took His sword and extended it out over the park. His sword looked like it was about two hundred yards long; the size of two football fields. He struck Candlestick Park and it lit up into a ball of flames. As I watched, all of California was on fire like a big explosion. I was then taken to New York, to the port harbor where the Statute of Liberty sits. Another Holy Angel came down from the heavens and took His sword and struck the Statue of Liberty; the Holy Angel’s sword was like the first Angel’s sword in length. He then took his sword and struck the torch of Liberty, and something like a bolt of lightning went down the torch and down the arm of Liberty, through her whole body. Liberty just melted as she was consumed with a blazing fire. The fire ball went into the port harbor and it was like orange lava as it consumed the water and the whole city of New York. The ball of fire went up and down the whole east coast and struck the heartland as well. The vision ended. Nov. 9, 2009
As
America has lost her light, the cry of people and the cry of children spread
throughout land. If we want to see, open your eyes, the reality has come as
tent cities pop up all across the land of America. Tens of thousands of people have lost
everything they own. These people have nowhere to turn and for many, their hope
of living is gone. The only hope these people have is Jesus Christ, and that
hope must be seen in the Bride of Christ; here, now on this earth and in
America. As the Bride of Christ we must be carrying the true Candlestick of
love. The Bride of Christ must Repent
and ask God for holy fire and holy power. We are the last hope for the souls of
America and we must walk with His power. We need to ask the Lord Jesus Christ
for a great awakening. Where is that great revival fire of the Saints? Our
nation is in great darkness. The sins of America have reached the heavens. Please pray for the souls of America for the
Lord God will not save America; calling all Saints; Babylon has fallen, so
rejoice. “Rejoice over her O heaven and
you holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on her”. Revelation 18:20
The
return of Christ is near, so, as the body Christ, Jesus said we need to work
while the light is with us, for soon night shall come and no man can work. We
see evidence of the return of Christ being near by the signs we see everywhere;
So
whatever you have been called to do for Christ, do it now; if you wait you will
miss your calling. 21Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give
to the poor and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” Matthew 19:21 (NKJ)
This year there has been almost one million bankruptcies. The stock markets are ready to take a crash;
an all time low is coming. A massive
earthquake is ready to hit America, a 911 event is about to happen and we are
about to see a Middle East war that will rise unaware as a Desert Storm. Another million babies and children will be
killed by abortion, rape and abuse.
While
we sit and watch the Sodomites march down the streets of America, our government,
for the first time in history, bares no fruit and the apple tree has been cut
down; not to mention that the country of America is in the greatest debt it has
ever experienced. There will be riots in
the heartland and all over America; Martial Law is about to break forth as tens
of thousands are killed. Many other
prophecy are about to happen right before your very eyes. Store shelves will be
emptied in one hour. So, we sit and do
nothing while millions of American souls are lost to satan. Let us not forget about the 70 million babies
in the dumpsters because of abortion, and we say, “God Bless America”, give me
a break; while we sit and wait; wait for what? Maybe some do have a word from the Lord to
wait, but if you are one of those who have this word then I would hope you ask
yourself these questions. Are you renewed
in strength? Do you feel you can’t go on and are weak? Have you mounted up with
wings like an eagle or do feel like you are down and out, on the ground
fighting in your flesh? Are you moving forward in a run position? Or are you
weary and tired and feel like you can’t go on? Are you walking or are you faint?
Isaiah 40 asks these questions. The Lord
God gives a promise for those who wait upon the Him. If you are not going forward and have not the
strength, then the time has come to go and really wait upon the Lord. Ask the Lord; have I really waited upon You?
Have I been in the Spirit with a joyful sound, pressing into His Holy Word? If
not then you labor in the flesh and you may have labored in the wait and that
wait has been in vain, not in the Spirit. I do not say this to judge you but so
that you will measure your wait upon the Lord with the word of
God. The Lord God wants to bring you
through for good things. His plan is to heal you and bring true deliverance so that
you will not have to go around the mountain again.
So
many people we know are always talking about money and praying for money. Many have not learned that it’s not about the
money. This is not always the case with
everyone but there are some Christians who have no money because they can’t be
trusted with it and have not been good Stewards.
As
you wait on the Lord, as you go deep with Him, press into that holy
fellowship. He will give you a sweet
promise, i.e., HE WILL RENEW YOUR STRENGHT. HE WILL SET YOUR FEET ON HIGH, ON
THE ROCK THAT IS JESUS CHRIST. SO WE MUST
LOOK FOR HIS RETURN AND PREPARE FIRST IN THE SPIRIT OF GOD ALMIGHTY AND THEN IN
THE PHYSICAL. THE TIME IS NOW TO PREPARE FOR ALL THOSE IN THE HOUSE HOLD OF
GOD. SO GO FORWARD AND COME INTO THE SHELTER OF THE MOST HIGH, HIDE YOUR SELF
UNTIL HIS JUDGMENTS AND WRATH HAS PASS BY. SO YOU MUST MOVE FORWARD AND NOT
WAIT BUT GET READY.
THE
RETURN OF THE LORD IS NEAR; BE READY AND BE WATCHFUL. We need to understand that our generation is standing at the
door; this door is the closing of this kingdom age and the start of the new
city of Christ in the coming kingdom. This is a time where no generation has ever stood. We are living
in the days spoken of by the prophets. These prophets spoke of a great
gathering; this is what the Sovereign LORD says: “I will take the Israelites
(His Church) out of the nations where they have gone. I will gather them from
all around and bring them back into their own land”. That land is this holy city of God coming
down out of heaven; not in the physical land. It will be a holy people who may
enter and they must be written in the Lambs book of life by the Holy Blood of
the Lamb.
It does not matter who
you are or what country you are from, the only things that matters is, have you
come into the salvation of Jesus Christ by His blood because nothing else will
matter. He is not building a temple or dwelling in a temple made by man’s hands,
in this land of America or Israel. He will only dwell in those who are the
temple of God, save by the Blood of the Lamb. The Dry bones” of Ezekiel 37 have come alive. When we see the Church come alive with, Holy
Spirit power, and do mighty Acts (also prophesied; we will see the world turn
against the true Church of Yeshua) on that day, when all the nations of
the earth are gathered against her, ( Her who? the Bride of Christ.) I will
make Jerusalem an immovable rock for all the nation. Zechariah 12
For these are some
reasons, many believe the return of Christ is so near? Even non-believers
know there is something wrong and the end of the world is near. This is the time the
world will shake and tremble at the sign of the sons of God appearing on the
earth and then the only begotten SON will Return.
This generation has
seen unprecedented historical signs. There
are many biblical signs such as, increased wickedness and violence worldwide,
as in the days of Noah; an increased of apostasy and those who have gone blind
in the Church; increased disasters upon disasters such as Volcanoes, Earthquakes
and Hurricanes; food Crops are being destroyed and much more. (But of that day and hour no man knows. Matthew
24)
Those who are watching
and expecting Jesus return will not miss their day of visitation as so many did
in the book of Luke19:41-44. They did not know the day of their visitation.
The day of the Lord
will come like a thief in the night. 1 Thessalonians 5 - These verses are for
the times we live in. If we are not
watching for the Lord, as He commanded, and we have our eyes on the things of
this world; absorbed by the cares of this world, then so many again will miss
their day of visitation. In Matthew 24 Jesus words are in the present tense,
addressed to His hearers at that time. Daniel's
vision would be unsealed - Daniel 12 is
similar to Matthew 16. We must
understand that Jesus was talking to them in the beginning of the Kingdom age
about the day of visitation. Now, at the
close of this Kingdom age, He will make a mighty, last day visitation to all
those who keep watch and are not sleeping; who not only have their oil and are
ready but the holy ones who can see and are awake at His coming. This is why it
is so very important to vest your time now in this Kingdom age; to destroy the
works of satan; to pull down strongholds; to set the captives free; the blind
may see and the lame walk; even the dead are raised. We have been given the
keys to the Kingdom of God. We, as the
Church, who build upon the Rock of Jesus Christ; the gates of Hell will not
prevail against the Bride of Christ.
He warned His
disciples not to tell anyone that He was the Christ. Let the blind lead the blind and the dead
bury the dead. We who see know who He is and His name is Yeshua the Christ
Jesus, our Lord and King. Jesus said, only the Father knows the day and hour of
His return; we can know the season and the times. The day and hour is up to the
Father. Will He give the hour?
It seems that He is
saying the hour in the following passage. If therefore thou shall not watch, I will come
on thee as a thief, and thou shall not know what hour I will come upon thee
(Revelation 3:3). He is obviously saying to the one who watches, He will not
come as a thief and that person will know the hour! It may be, in that hour you will know what
time it is. June 2009 has begun the
dooms day clock and all the prophecy for America will be made complete in 2012,
just as the Lord told me back in 1993. He
said, “I will send a coming destruction on America and I will give eighteen
more years to America; from June 1994 to June 2012 and the total demise of
America will be made complete”.
So in that hour the
last hour could be revealed. Do you know we are in the last hour? Over the
course of the next 3-5 years we will be coming to the close of this Kingdom
age; Jesus will come and finish His work on earth.
Will He come back in
2012? I do not for sure; it seems that He may, but we will wait, watch and pray
as the time gets closer and He will reveal all things. It is clear that Jesus
will not come as a "thief in the night" for watchful believers
because in the very same passage, Paul tells us,” But you, brothers, are not in
darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief”.
Jesus exhorted,
"If therefore thou shall not watch, I will come on thee as a thief". Revelation 3 obviously is saying He will
come as a thief only to those not watching! It is obvious that for those
watching, He will NOT come as a thief. Jesus rebuked those who did not understand the signs of the times in His
day. “You hypocrites, you can discern
the face of the sky, but can ye not discern the signs of the times”? Matthew 16 – Concerning the end of the age,
Jesus said, “And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and
lift up your heads; for your redemption draws near”. Luke 21
He said we would know when it is near! God said, "Surely the sovereign Lord
does nothing without revealing it to His servants the prophets" Amos 3:7 -
I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s
business. Instead, I have called you friends. John 15
We are now coming to a close of almost 6,000
years from the time of Adam. The way I
look at it is this; a day is like a thousand years. We see the first, second and third day, and
we are in the third day. We are a third day people. Hose 6:1-3 “He will raise us up on the third
day”; could there be three, one thousand day periods? Not by our human clocks but by the time
clocks in the heavens, according to Papa’s time. (We will rule and reign with
Christ 1000 years, i.e., on the third day He will raise us up.)
Noah new when the world would be flooded and every person on
the earth would die except Noah and his family. So Noah built the ark and got
ready. He did not wait, he got ready. He,
who has an ear to hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church, let him hear.
