I wanted to encourage you with my story...
The week of the Resurrection was a normal one at work...lots of complaining and fussing with the coworkers. On Tuesday I felt the Lord "whisper in my ear", to buy everyone a Resurrection card and invite them to church. Now at Christmas time we all exchange gifts and the 'Christmas Spirit" for the most part is pretty strong in the office with everyone smiling and being more pleasant.
Well this time of year is pretty busy and most of the employees are not so very happy under the strain and stress. So when the Lord told me to do this, I was at first excited ( I was still at home), then when I got to work I thought, no, I don't want to do that, nobody is interested nor care.
Then the next day, Wednesday, I heard Him tell me to do it again. So out of obedience and the challenge you had given us at church, I took my break and went to the Dollar Tree to pick out my cards and to buy everyone a full size candy bar to tape to the envelope. Well I needed 15 cards and there was the PERFECT card ( AND exactly 15 of them!) that said on the front "You are a special gift made from God above".
I was so excited! I picked out about 20 different candy bars and went to my car. I addressed each envelope and wrote inside each in my car. When I went inside my office, I started to work on typing up an invitation to say if they did not have a church to celebrate Christ Resurrection I would love to have them come visit mine and I gave the name, address and time of our service. I copied to about 4 on a page and printed it out on purple paper.
Now the miraculous of all this time is NOBODY came in to interrupt me and the phone did not ring! Now that doesn't happen! I was able to tape the candy to each card after cutting and inserting the invite without any asking what was I doing.
What happened next was spectacular!
I walked around and handed each their card, calling it an Easter Basket, when I got looks of surprise. Well, what happened was it CHANGED the atmosphere in there! It was awesome! People said thank you and gave me hugs and 3 said I gave them the perfect candy of their choice (Holy Spirit led, right!?). I was so blessed...and all because I was obedient! One even said they would like sometime to join me at church.
And then the topping on the cake was serving communion at church. What an honor we have to serve His body and blood to the family of God! That the Lord wanted to share of Himself so intimately.
Thank you Jon for all you do and sacrifice for His body!

This Must-See Film Verifies the Genesis Account of Creation
Join us on the new C-Pop podcast where Taylor and Jessilyn discuss, debate and sometimes deride pop culture with a strong sense of humor and a focus on Christ. Listen at charismapodcastnetwork.com.
After the successful one-night theatrical event that netted two encore performances, the documentary feature Is Genesis History? will be available on DVD, VOD and for church licensing on April 11. Through on-location interviews with veteran scientists, Is Genesis History? examines the two conflicting histories on the origins of the earth and the universe. With an immense body of new research and discoveries currently available, Is Genesis History? unpacks and presents positive, evidence-based arguments for the credibility of the Bible as accurate history.
"People don't need to feel unscientific in believing God's Word as it is written. We wanted the film to show that there are smart, professional, respected scientists who are working in the field who have seen the evidence firsthand and believe that the evidence supports the historical narrative of Genesis," explains Dr. Del Tackett, host in the movie. "People can walk away from Is Genesis History? with confidence, knowing that what God has given us in Scripture is true."
Using an unconventional theatrical release, the film launched as a one-night only theatrical event through Compass Cinema and Fathom Events. Over 143,000 people purchased tickets for the premiere event, making Is Genesis History? the highest grossing and #1 per-screen average film in the country on February 23 (BoxOfficeMojo.com). This outpouring of support launched two additional evenings of encore screenings that ultimately earned the film a whopping $2.7M in just three evenings.
Producer Thomas Purifoy Jr said, "We knew people were innately interested in the events recorded in Genesis, so we were confident in the subject matter. What we were surprised by was how many theaters sold out, added screens, then sold out again. Documentaries aren't supposed to do well in theaters. Is Genesis History? is a film that is continually breaking the mold."
Critics agree:
"An engrossing primer on why we can feel confident believing the Bible's account of creation." —World Magazine
"'Is Genesis History?' is a very-informative documentary, definitely not dry but very interesting to watch." —Dove.org
"A Must-See Movie" —radio host, World Net Daily and Town Hall columnist Jerry Newcombe
"Fascinating—and quite beautiful—from opening to closing, Is Genesis History? is a necessary multi-tool in the kit of anyone who hopes to believe more deeply in—and communicate more knowledgeably about—the possibility of a young Earth and the reliability of the Bible's creation account." —Crosswalk.com
In the documentary, Tackett introduces viewers to experts in theology, geology, paleontology, biology, archaeology and astronomy. They each spend time looking at scientific data from the perspective of the history recorded Genesis. Tackett's journey spans the continent, exploring answers to compelling questions such as the sudden extinction of the dinosaurs, the timeline of natural history and the reality of a global flood.
Churches and para-church organizations provided incredible support for Is Genesis History?, prompting the filmmakers to make church licensing available as quickly as possible. On April 11, the film's website, http://www.isgenesishistory.com, will provide churches and organizations the opportunity to register to host individual screenings of this compelling documentary plus download a plethora of additional support materials, including video devotionals, a church prep booklet, online Bible studies and more.
The DVD, Blu-ray and VOD will include three bonus features from additional scientists (Larry Vardiman, Douglas Kelly and Stuart Burgess), examining the topics of Climate Change, the History of Creation in the Church, and the Design of the Universe. Is Genesis History? will be available at online retailers and on thehttp://www.isgenesishistory.com website.

The Elijah List published Wednesday morning a set of prophecies from Charles Shamp, Kim Clement and Denny Cramerthat speak directly to the current situation with North Korea.
Shamp's, in particular, was very powerful. He wrote:
I have seen a great awakening coming to Korea; one that will shake the land from the south to the far north. I heard the Lord say, "Can a nation be awakened and united in a day?"
I said, "Only You truly know, Father."
Then the Lord said, "I am shaking the Korean government to break corruption that has been there for generations. Yes, this is My doing! For I see the land as one; this division will no longer stand in My sight. In My eyes there has never been a divide, only one land, one people and one nation in My hands.
"I will wipe away the military zone and will remove the one who divides and destroys from his throne. I will remove him by an unseen force, one that many will not believe. I will shake the land in the north to release a great awakening which has been prophesied by My prophets' lips for many generations. This awakening will come with great force, like lightning when it strikes and shakes the ground.
"There will be a rumbling in the north and the crumbling of buildings will be a sign of this crumbling kingdom. I will use an unusual force to break down the walls of division. Yes, the walls will fall along with the north kingdom.
"I will bring freedom to those who have been imprisoned, and they will finally see My Son shining bright. The light of My kingdom will radiate and displace all darkness that has been resting like a canopy for generations.
"The canopy of fear will be shaken out and replaced by My Spirit of peace and prosperity. I will use a power that is unseen, unthinkable and unbelievable by the minds of men to disarm the 'madman' of the north. It will shock many. The masses will see the thunder strike the ground and his kingdom come down.
"There have been strange things, these days, that have come into this madman's dreams. His mind is only filled with destruction, deceit and darkness; he knows his time is short. He has forged a demonic plan, but he will fail to execute it to the fullest extent. For his twisted thinking has him creating a dark future for many, but I have set before him two stumbling blocks: justice and judgment. The mind of this man will fail, and his capacity to retain information and understanding will be his final downfall. A great mistake is to come and he will fall from his place of demonic rule."
For the Lord says, "I have stripped him from his seat of authority among men and will lay waste his kingdom. He has said in his heart that he is a god. Has he not seen what I have done to those who lift themselves up to be gods? He will fall like lightning from the sky never to rise or be seen again.
"This fall will be so great that the land will shake. This shaking will cause the scales to crumble off of men's eyes and they will see him weak and broken—as just a man. I will cause revival to sweep through the land, even through the capital of Pyongyang. I have released watcher angels to spy out the land for My hand is upon you Korea."
The Lord spoke again, "Can a nation be brought to its knees in a day?"
I said, "You know My Father."
"I will bring this nation to its knees in repentance before Me and wipe away every trace of darkness that has been. My glory will come like a rushing mighty wind and fill the land with My divine grace to stand in My presence. The people will hear My command and march as one through the land.
"The people will arise and shine in the glory that I will give. I will use the people of this land who have been held captive for so long to break others free from the bondage of captivity. There will be a great missions movement that will come from this place, and I will send the people across the land to other nations and they will release deliverance.
"Yes, I have anointed you, Korea, to carry My gospel to the nations of the earth with supernatural miracles. The seeds of intercession from a previous generation will become righteous trees with leaves for the healing of the nations in this one.
"I speak to you, Korea: As one you will rise and you will run into every nation and carry My Son. This is your mandate and mission that will come. I speak to you, Korea: This day you will no longer be divided, but one with My Son!"
I've seen an arrow being shot from North Korea. The word of the Lord came unto me saying, "'As a madman who casts firebrands, arrows, and death' (Prov. 26:18) 'For the wicked bend their bow; they make ready their arrow on the string, that they may treacherously shoot the upright in heart" (Ps. 11:2), but 'There He broke the fiery arrows of the bow, the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war' (Ps. 76:3). I decree and declare to the people of the east: 'You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day' (Ps. 91:5) as you are, 'Taking the shield of faith, with which you will be able to extinguish all the fiery arrows of the evil one' (Eph. 6:16), '...But God will suddenly shoot them with an arrow; they will be wounded" (Ps. 64:7). 'I will heap misfortunes on them; I will use My arrows on them' (Deut. 32:23).'"
It's time to pray for North Korea!
Click here to read the entire article. The Shamp prophecy touches on one of the still-developing factors in the current situation in Asia: China's sudden turn on the Hermit Kingdom over continued nuclear testing.
Check out what Global Times, a Chinese newspaper with direct ties to the Communist Party, published in an editorial just last week:
We all know that North Korea's sixth nuclear test is imminent, and various parties, especially China, are generally worried about this. If by any chance nuclear leakage or pollution incidents happen, the damage to northeast China's environment will be catastrophic and irreversible.
China has a bottom line that it will protect at all costs, that is, the security and stability of northeast China. If the bottom line is touched, China will employ all means available including the military means to strike back.
By that time, it is not an issue of discussion whether China acquiesces in the US' blows, but the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) will launch attacks on North Korean nuclear facilities on its own.
North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un's Punggye-ri nuclear site is in the far north of the country, and test detonations there have been felt as seismic activity in the Chinese provinces of Liaoning and Jilin. A large-scale test and subsequent seismic activity could be devastating to structures in those regions, triggering a Chinese military response.
Liaoning's capital and largest city, Shenyang, is also home to Dongguan Church, which is also known as "the cradle of Christianity of the Koreans in China and in the Korean Peninsula." It is one of the oldest and largest Protestant Christian churches in northeastern China.
We're past the point of mere coincidences here. It would seem clear the Lord is at work, and His kingdom is advancing.

Posted: 19 Apr 2017 Michael Snyder THE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE BLOG
How will you handle all of the people that will show up at your door when a major crisis strikes because they haven’t been making any preparations of their own? Earlier today somebody asked me about this on Facebook, and I thought that it was a very good question, because thousands of my readers will be faced with this precise dilemma at some point. When America’s day of disaster arrives, it is inevitable that most of us that are prepping will have family, friends and neighbors showing up at our door asking for help. When that happens, what will you do? There are some people out there that are very honest about the fact that they do not plan to share what they have stored up with anyone, and that even close family members will be greeted with a shotgun if they show up unannounced. Personally, I could never do that. My wife and I have always had the philosophy that we need to work extra hard to prepare because there will be people that need to depend on us when times get really hard. And turning away those that are in desperate need would go against everything that we stand for. After all, I am even writing a book that is all about the true meaning of love, and so it would be quite hypocritical of me to turn away those that I care about when they need me the most. And even if I wanted to be cold-hearted, my wife would never let me get away with it. She has such a soft heart that she literally can’t bear to even see a bug die. We often have spiders invade our place, and when she sees one she gently captures it and sets it free outside. I tell her that they will just breed and come back in even bigger numbers, but that doesn’t seem to matter to her. So needless to say we are going to have to find a non-violent way to deal with our spider problem. But I certainly understand the frustrations of those that have been trying to warn family and friends about what is coming for years and they never seem to listen. And it is true that resources are limited. For the vast majority of us, there is only so much money and energy that we can put into prepping, and so why should those that have refused to listen to the warnings and prepare in advance be able to benefit from all of our hard work? Unfortunately, life is not always fair. And we also need to realize that there is a tremendous amount of deception going on out there these days. Some of the deceptions that are currently circulating are very strong, and it can be very easy to be sucked into them. So we need to have compassion for those that have been led into confusion. Look, there are literally thousands of watchmen all across this country that have never wavered from warning America about what is coming even for a moment. That is because they are standing on the truth and not on wishful thinking that is the product of overactive imaginations. The ingredients for the “perfect storm” that so many watchmen have been warning about for ages are starting to come together right before our eyes. We are closer to World War III than we have been in decades, our politicians are openly admitting that our relations with Russia are at “an all-time low”, the federal government is 20 trillion dollars in debt, our nation is on the verge of being torn apart by strife and civil unrest, the financial markets are primed for a crash of epic proportions, there are mass die-offs of animals all over the globe, and natural disasters are happening with frightening regularity as the crust of our planet rattles and shakes. But we are somehow supposed to believe that “everything is going to be wonderful” even though we continue to kill babies on an industrial scale, just about every form of sexual immorality that you can possibly imagine is exploding all around us, our “entertainment” industry is an open sewer, and we lead the world in both legal and illegal drug use. I’ve got dozens more facts that I could quote regarding our moral decay, but I think that you get the point. If we actually changed our behavior, I could understand why it would make sense for America to be blessed. But we haven’t changed our behavior, and there are no signs that this is going to happen any time soon. As humans, we have the freedom to choose, but those choices inevitably have consequences. The same thing is true for our nation as a whole. We have made a whole bunch of exceedingly bad choices, and those choices are going to result in some incredibly painful consequences. So you can do whatever you want, but my wife and I are going to continue to get prepared. America is headed for a date with disaster, and those that are suggesting otherwise are not being honest with you.
"Jewish roots" or "Hebrew roots" is a very popular subject today in the body of Christ, with many books, teaching ministries, websites and so on about this topic. After centuries of replacement theology and anti-Semitism from the historic church, we are witnessing a revival of Christian "Philo-Semitism" and positive interest in Israel.
Today, millions of Christians around the world are getting revelation and scriptural understanding about the need to positively connect with Israel and the Jewish people. For many, this includes teaching about the "Jewish roots," which can take many forms: Torah studies, observing biblical/Jewish feasts, understanding the "Hebraic" mindset, Holy Land tours, participating in a Passover Seder, standing with Israel politically and more.
In this article (and the following two or three), we want to take a close look at the "roots" teaching, which is most often based on the Scripture which speaks most clearly of a Jewish root: the olive tree of Romans 11:16-24. What does the term actually mean in the biblical context? How would the Roman Christians, to whom Paul addressed the letter, have understood this teaching? How should it be applied today?
The apostle Paul writes of an olive tree of God's people, its branches and its root. The word "root" appears four times in verses 16-18. The overall message of these verses is first a reminder to the Gentile, Roman believers (the "wild" branches) that they have been graciously and surprisingly "grafted into" this olive tree-community of God's people—a tree which for many, many generations had only been "cultivated" among the Jewish nation/people (the "natural," native, domesticated branches). The apostle then sternly warns the Romans not to become arrogant or boastful toward these native, Jewish branches, and to remember that they don't support the root, but the root supports them (v.18). While the apostle clearly identifies three kinds of branches (Jewish believer, Gentile believer, Jewish unbelievers—the "broken-off" branches), he doesn't similarly define the root—nor does the Scripture explicitly label it as a "Jewish" or "Hebrew" root.
Throughout church history, biblical interpreters have offered four possible definitions of the root:
Jesus Himself, the "root and offspring" of David (Rev 22:16).
The patriarchs and/or the patriarchal (Abrahamic) covenant, based on verses 11:28-29.
The Jewish people/nation of Israel.
The first-century, Jewish believing community, especially represented by the apostolic Jerusalem church.
What do you think? Please study and meditate on these Scriptures as we continue our study, with Part 2 to come soon. Try, as much as possible, not to "import" any of your theology or ideas to the text; try to imagine that you are a Gentile, Roman Christian (some knew Jews; others did not) who is hearing this letter read publicly during a worship meeting. What would it have sounded like? Who, or what, is this mysterious root?

Are you sitting on the bench? Or are you out of breath because you are lugging 50 pounds of shame and failure? (Getty Images)
I have a friend who is a respected Christian leader. But like all of us, he wrestles with his own sins, weaknesses and trials. People associated with his ministry have disrespected him, his family has suffered, and he has struggled with health problems. He has also carried loads of shame since his childhood because of sexual abuse.
My friend recently admitted that he has occasionally asked God to take his life because he was so discouraged. When I prayed with him, I saw a vision of a huge arena. I could see athletes running while the crowd cheered, but my friend was sitting on a bench next to the track. Then I saw Jesus walk over to him, grab his arm and beckon him to get in the race.
My friend turned a spiritual corner after I shared this vision with him. His hope was renewed, and he decided to run the race of faith again. But there are many Christians today who have pulled out of the race because life got too tough. Some were instantly broadsided; others gradually slowed down until they quit.
The apostle Paul wrote to a group of people who were thinking of quitting the race. They were Jewish Christians who faced intense persecution. Using imagery of an athletic arena, Paul said to them: "Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us" (Heb. 12:1).
Are you sitting on the bench? Or are you out of breath because you are lugging 50 pounds of shame and failure? Have you disqualified yourself from the race? Here are six of the most common reasons Christians throw in the towel:
1. Depression or discouragement. When we face stress, tragedy, disappointment, failure or prolonged delay, we will lose hope if we don't stay close to God and cling to His promises. We must remember that the darkness never lasts. "Weeping may last for the night," Psalm 30:5 says, "but a shout of joy comes in the morning."
Charles Spurgeon wrote: "There are no immortal sorrows for immortal saints. They come; but, blessed be God, they also go." No matter what obstacle you face, it will not stand in front of you indefinitely. No matter how heavy and dark the cloud is over your head, the sunshine will soon break through. Though you may not see a light at the end of the tunnel, you must keep pressing forward. You will outlast your problem.
2. Shame or self-loathing. The miracle of grace says all your past sins have been blotted out. If you have trusted in the blood of Christ, heaven has purged all record of your failures. Yet many Christians cannot forgive themselves for their weaknesses, and they imagine that God is still angry with them because they still struggle with temptation. And the devil is eager to remind us of what we once were!
Go back to the cross and give God your doubts, fears and shame. Stop punishing yourself. Trade your sinfulness for His righteousness. Jesus knows you cannot live a sinless life apart from Him—so He chose to live His perfect life through you.
3. Sinful habits. If you struggle with a life-controlling problem, you cannot overcome it alone. You must open your life to mature Christians and confess your weakness. Paul told the Hebrews: "Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble" (Heb. 12:12). Athletes don't rehabilitate themselves—they ask for help. You cannot run the race when sin has crippled you. Be transparent and let the right people pray with you.
4. Distraction.The key to winning a race is focus. Paul emphasized this when he told the Hebrews to fix their eyes on Jesus (Heb. 12:2). Our focus cannot be on a pastor, a celebrity preacher, a pet doctrine, a church, a denomination, a political party, spiritual gifts or emotions. If you put your trust in any of those things, you will not be able to finish the race. It was Jesus who started His work in you, and only He will complete it.
Regaining your focus is not difficult. Simply set aside some time to pray, and cast your cares on the Lord. Read the Psalms. Listen to praise music. Spend time in God's Word each day. Spurgeon said: "A Bible that's falling apart usually belongs to someone who isn't." If you soak your mind in Scripture, you will find unusual grace to press forward, even when all hell is raging against you.
5. Persecution. It's easy to serve God when everybody thinks you're wonderful. But how do you respond when family members and co-workers speak against you because of your faith or your moral convictions? Persecution can tempt us to deny Christ or to make moral compromises. But you must remember that when you suffer for His name's sake, you will be blessed. Peter said when we are persecuted, "the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you" (1 Pet. 4:14).
I will tell you what I told my friend last week. Jesus is calling you back in the race. Don't just sit there and let the devil win. Put one foot in front of the other, focus on Jesus and trust Him to give you the strength to run.

One Sunday morning, you may be sitting there peacefully with your family during what seems like a perfectly normal church service when a team of men dressed in camo comes storming in and starts shooting at people indiscriminately with automatic weapons.
Once upon a time, such a thing would have been absolutely unimaginable in America, but now things have completely changed. In fact, as you will see below, something like this almost happened a little over a week ago at a hotel in South Dakota where approximately 500 people had gathered for a Christian conference. This is a time when ministries are going to have to start paying extra attention to security, because Islamic terrorists are going to be specifically targeting Christians and churches.
Every year, the number of Islamic terror attacks worldwide just keeps rising, and according to one list, there has already been 619 Islamic terror attacks in 2017.
And sometimes it is just a "lone wolf" with a gun who suddenly snaps and goes on a shooting spree. Just consider what happened on Tuesday in Fresno, California. An Islamic militant named Kori Ali Muhammad decided to take out his gun and start shooting at people for no discernible reason whatsoever:
Dyer said the gunman walked up to the PG&E truck in the 300 block of North Van Ness Avenue about 10:45 a.m. and shot the passenger repeatedly. The driver of the pickup then sped to Fresno police headquarters on M Street. The second shooting was only a few seconds later and was at Van Ness and Mildreda Street, where the gunman shot at but missed a resident. The gunman then turned onto Fulton Street and fired several rounds at another man, striking and killing him, Dyer said. After reloading at a bus stop, the gunman then shot and killed a man in the parking lot of Catholic Charities in the 100 block of North Fulton Street, he said.
According to multiple mainstream news reports, authorities heard Muhammad shout out "Allahu Akbar." In Arabic that means "Allah is the greatest", and it is a phrase that is commonly heard during terror attacks all over the globe.
The frenetic profile includes militant and apocalyptic language and repeated demands to "let black people go." He referenced "white devils" and praised melanoma skin cancer.
On Saturday afternoon, Muhammad posted a photo of himself in a colorful garment, with his head covered, and the words: "LET BLACK PEOPLE GO OR THE DOOM INCREASES REPARATIONS & SEPARATION NOW."
He wrote in all caps on Monday: "MY KILL RATE INCRESASES [sic] TREMENDOUSLY ON THE OTHER SIDE ASÈ ALLAH U AKBAR"
Another extremely disturbing incident occurred back on April 9th.
An Islamic radical who had brought "multiple firearms" with him stormed into a major Christian conference at a hotel in South Dakota, and his actions had many fearing for their lives:
A Muslim man entered a private gathering of Christians in a hotel ballroom in South Dakota, started cursing and livestreaming video on Facebook of the event and then, after he was ushered out, displayed multiple firearms and issued statements the speakers say were a direct threat to their safety.
The man, wearing a T-shirt that read, "I'm American, I'm a Muslim, I open carry, I conceal carry, and I'm dangerous only if you're stupid," was approached by a security guard and told to leave.
Once back in his car, he brandished an arsenal of weapons, including two military-style rifles with loaded magazines and three handguns, and made several threats of "Be scared, be [obscenity] scared. Be terrified." Again, it was all livestreamed on Facebook while he was parked in the conference-center parking lot.
Can you imagine what would have happened if he had started firing inside that ballroom?
Amazingly, authorities did not charge him with any crime.
The man who was in charge of organizing the conference is named Brannon Howse. I know him personally and I have appeared on his radio show numerous times. He has always warned that this sort of thing could start happening in America, but he probably never imagined that something like this would actually happen to him.
We all need to start changing the way we think, because these Islamic radicals can strike literally anywhere.
According to the Washington Free Beacon, federal authorities are telling us that radical Islamic terrorists are being investigated "in all 50 states" and that the threat of terrorism has now "reached an all-time high":
Federal authorities have open investigations into radical Islamic terrorists in all 50 states, according to the Department of Homeland Security, which is warning that the threat of terrorism in the United States has reached an all-time high with radicalized individuals in the country plotting to strike "each and every single day."
Unfortunately, what we have seen so far is just the beginning.
Many have been shown that absolutely horrific Islamic terror attacks are coming, and that Christians and churches will be specifically targeted. One of the people who have been shown these things is Marty Breeden:
In my spirit, I know and have seen that coming to the U.S., during our church worship services, there will be attacks. I've seen the doors burst open and the black hooded men in camo coming through with guns and shooting indiscriminately. I've seen them lock the doors behind them to inflict the maximum amount of casualties. I've seen the shock and fear on people's faces as it takes a split second for them to actually realize that they are about to be face to face with the one they were just singing about.
I see these attacks as a coordinated effort. I believe that many of the attacks and the houses of worship that are attacked will be places where the attackers had frequented to get a feel for the layout of the facility. For those who are able to escape, there will be those waiting outside to inflict and deal the same punishment as those inside. When this first takes place, many Christians will do as was done in the early church and will meet in homes and secluded private places.
I've seen people taking their Bibles to these meetings and am also armed as well as to provide protection for their families and children. Just when it seems that there can be no more tragedy, these attacks will start again in rapid fashion it will be a common occurrence, here in the U.S., to hear of yet another Christian church, meeting or Jewish synagogue attacked with deadly results.
I spend a lot of time fasting and praying to hear from the Lord. After a week of prayer and fasting in October 2014, I received a series of very disturbing prophetic warnings about an Islamic plot to murder Christian children in churches across America.
On Sunday, Oct. 12, 2014, I took my children with me to the church where we attend regularly. When our kids go to the children's church, we give a slip of paper to the person standing at the entrance. On that Sunday, my boys asked if they could hand the slip to the person. I told them that would be OK, but when they handed the slip over, as soon as the person touched the slip, I heard the audible voice of the Holy Spirit say, "They are going to kill the children."
My heart dropped. Such grief welled up in my stomach.
Of course many will completely ignore these warnings, but those who are wise are bolstering security and praying for a hedge of protection around their churches.
We are living at a time that is completely different from what previous generations had to face. The threat of Islamic terrorism is growing all over the world, and Islamic terrorists have a special hatred for Christians and for churches.
We will not live in fear, but we will not stick our heads in the sand, either. Islamic terror is a threat that we are going to have to deal with, and those who are ignoring the warnings do so at their own peril.
