Prophecy for America


This morning I awoke with a word of knowledge: “God will surely judge the nation that turns from Him and His ways.”

Over the past week I have felt the distinct impression that abortion is a key measure in this upcoming election – the fact that it is mentioned so little is an indication of how far our heart as a nation has turned from God. And words resonate that the only thing evil needs to succeed is for good men to do nothing. So here is what the Lord God says to America:

I have tolerated your wandering heart for a generation and waited for you to return to Me. But as a Father disciplines His son, so now I am about to discipline you. How I wish you would discipline yourself! But the blood of innocents cry for justice, and I can not hold back My Hand from their defense. It is enough to know that you have wandered so far from Me, but their voice gives fuel to My fire! Only a little while remains, and you will see My judgment upon this land and My cleansing of your nation. I will send pestilence and destruction; famine and sorrow. The wicked will die with the righteous. “But why will You allow the good to perish?” you may ask. I will tell you: “Because you stood by silently while the wickedness around you increased. You failed to sound the alarm when the Enemy approached and so condemned your people to destruction. You failed to care for your brother when you had the chance. And so you shall share in their desolation.” But turn back to Me and My ways, and I will restore you to even greater glory than you have seen! Even in the midst of destruction, I will send redemption and bring you back to Me! Son of man, you are a watchman on a watch tower... but sound the alarm and know My protection.

Further thoughts I have on this word:
  • This word came to me on the anniversary of my father's death and the coincident birthday of my son. This is the death of one age and the birth of another.
  • Other words and events over this past week have led me to believe this message is for the Body of Christ in America, and that “plague” is one of the consequences for our continued, willful disobedience.
  • There are three weeks until the election, and how we vote will play a part in the timing and severity of God's discipline.
  • This is a message for believers – for those who profess to know the Lord Almighty – and it is a call for repentance as demonstrated in action.
  • Our God is a God of grace; He is quick to show mercy and slow to anger.
  • Please feel free to distribute this as you feel led by the Spirit.

What is Alpha?

I want to tell you about the Alpha Course.  Around 30 years ago, I had the privilege of attending an Alpha course at Truro Church in Northern Virginia. I was already a believer in Christ, but I've always struggled connecting with others. Some people may be surprised by that fact because I've been blessed with so many wonderful relationships, but the Alpha Course was special in that it opened the door to lifelong, family relationships. The people in our Alpha group kept meeting until we were pulled to different parts of the country. Yet even after that, we've had reunions, attended the weddings of our daughters and even met remotely during the COVID lockdown. I can't say that every Alpha group is as special as ours. The reunions and remote gatherings were in large part due to one lovely lady in particular who has continued to pull us back again and again, and it was my privilege to see her enter into a relationship with Jesus 3 decades ago, a relationship that has poure

If I were an Atheist

My Life / My Will If I were an atheist, reality would be centered around me. I would judge things as good if they were in my best interest, and I would judge things as bad if they were not to my advantage. If I were an atheist, all relationships would exist for my pleasure and for the pursuit of my best interest. I would be at the center of the universe, and all others with circle around me. It would therefore be important that people agree with me in all things. Depending upon my level of sophistication, I would get people to agree with me without even realizing how I was manipulating them. In fact, I would take great joy in converting people to my way of thinking, and if I changed my thinking in any way, then I would want others to join me in this new enlightenment. If I were an atheist, I would want people to think of me as somehow “good“, so I would probably have some story to tell people about my “goodness”. It could be around my generosity, which would be just enough to have peop

Challenges of a Father

Image
I haven’t written in a while because I’ve been trying to form my thoughts for a topic that I’ll post later this month, and like our society in general have considered Father’s Day only as an afterthought. Our society celebrates Mothers pretty easily, and that’s a good thing. But it seems harder to celebrate fathers. Why is that? The message at our church today was a really good one but reflecting upon the content I realized that it was mostly describing fatherhood wounds, the impact of a bad father figure and how God brings restoration. So I could choose to write about the qualities of a good father, and that would also be a good thing to share, but instead I thought it might be better to share my challenges as a father. Assuming that others may be challenged in similar ways, maybe someone would benefit from knowing that we’re not alone. As the father of five children, I know I’ve made mistakes and that I’ve also done the right thing. No one is perfect as a parent, and that shouldn’t
