The hope for us


Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet

Last night, I had a dream where one thing after another went wrong unexpectedly.  

I awoke crying out to God, "What is this?"

I heard, "The end times."


*****

Amos 5:18-20   Woe unto you that desire the day of the Lord! to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.

As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

(This is what my dream was like last night.)


Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?


***

Isaiah 24:1-12    Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.

And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.

(Everyone who is on the earth at that time will experience the problem ... 

Jesus says:   Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.  Luke 21:36)


***

Isaiah 24:3 The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the Lord hath spoken this word.

4 The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.

8 The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.
9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it. 

(Can't even escape this way.)

10 The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in. 11 There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.

12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction. 


***

Joel 1:15   Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.

18-19   How do the beasts groan! the herds of cattle are perplexed, because they have no pasture; yea, the flocks of sheep are made desolate.
O Lord, to thee will I cry: for the fire hath devoured the pastures of the wilderness, and the flame hath burned all the trees of the field.

Revelation 8:7    The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.


***

Joel 2:1-2   Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:

30-32   And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.


32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.

***

Several years ago, I had a dream where the earth slipped on it's axis.  People were terrified.  Scientists and religious leaders were meeting with the government to see what could be done about this.  A newsman was trying to tell the story on TV news, but he was so frightened he couldn't speak.

(The event was of God.  Man could do nothing.)


***

Joel 3:13    Put ye in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe: come, get you down; for the press is full, the fats overflow; for their wickedness is great.

Revelation 14:14-19  And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.

And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.

And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.

And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.

And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.

The end time wrath of God is to be poured out upon the people who remain on this present earth.

This happens when the cup of iniquity is full.

No man knows the exact day and hour but we do know seasons.  In the spring, when leaves begin to appear on the trees, we know summer is near.

In life, when we see the wickedness increase we know the end, the "day of the Lord", is near.

And this is especially true when we see wickedness in church groups and when we see people in church groups "fall away" from portions of scripture.

The apostle Paul told us this "falling away" had to happen before Jesus could return.  II Thessalonians 2

We see this in the churches today.

***

First the churches cast aside the instruction given by the apostle Paul concerning what to do when wickedness comes into the congregation.

Paul says:

I Corinthians 5:11; 13   But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat...Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

***

What do the churches do today when a brother is a "fornicator?"  They think they need to pray for that "brother" and counsel him, instead of putting him out of the church.

Thus wickedness acts throughout the congregation as a "leaven."  

Paul said this is what would happen if they allowed such a one to remain in the group.

***

Second, many church groups permit the man to marry the divorced woman.  Adultery.  Matthew 5:32

Men and women divorce and remarry at will, which is adultery according to Bible.  Mark 10 & I Corinthians 7:10-11 

Some churches today accept homosexuals & lesbians.  Against Bible.  Romans 1

Some churches go along with medical profession calling drunkenness "a illness", not a sin.

I Corinthians 6:9-10   Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.


***

Many forms of unrepentant sins are approved today in churches by both ministers and congregation under the guise of a false doctrine of "love" and "forgiveness".

Scriptures are cast aside when they disagree with the doctrines of the church group.

Jesus, the Word, no longer rules over these church groups.

These are all signs of the leaves of the trees announcing the coming wrath of God upon the wickedness!

Don't be a part of this in the church group.

Get up and leave.

Follow God with that person who calls on God out of a pure heart.
