Bombshells & Heavenly Shelter

October 17, 2000

Some days ago, I felt these words dropped into my heart, "Bombshells are about  to explode.
" I've sat on this as I received nothing else.

 Watching events unfolding in my own country and events taking place Around the world, it looks
 like we are under heavy  attack from all points.  Added to that are the own pressures that we face day by day.

Yet in the midst of all these:

 1. What is God doing?

 2. What are we supposed to do?

 I asked the Lord the same questions and have waited for His answers.

 WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO

All of us who know the Lord already know what we are supposed to do. 
Psalm 91 gives us the answer and many of us know this by heart. However, 
there is always a big gap between knowing it and living it out.  I am struggling
to find that place and need a lot of  the Father's help.

 WHAT IS GOD DOING?

God is at work in the nations. All these bombshells being dropped in our 
midst are symbolic of the  activities also taking place in the heavenlies.

From our side here, it may look like  that we are losing ground. . . . 
but from the heavenly perspective, God is moving forward putting in place
all that needs to be done for His plans and purposes to be unveiled.

 DANGER ZONE

I felt the Lord impressing to me certain areas that we need to guard against
during this season. First, don't be dictated by your feelings. Many of God's 
children, because of the long drawn battle that they've been in are feeling 
tired and yes some are surprised that they don't feel like talking much these
days. Also, desire and zeal seem to have diminished too. These are not 
equal to loss of anointing. Second, keep your focus on God and refrained 
from jumping to conclusions about anything. This might call for more time 
listening and less time talking. God is fighting the battle for us, and it will be
 wise and prudent to be silent when we are not sure about certain matters. 
God wants us to "leave matters in His hands."

 JERICHO

In so many ways, this is another "Jericho season" for God's people. 
The walls are about to fall FOR GOD IS FIGHTING THE BATTLES FOR US.

 PROMISE

" But now listen, O Jacob, my servant, Israel, whom I have chosen. This is 
what the Lord says - He who made you, who formed you in the womb, and 
who will help you: Do not be afraid, O Jacob, my servant, Jeshurun, whom I
have chosen. For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the 
dry ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessings
on your descendants. They will spring up like grass in a meadow, like 
poplar trees by flowing streams." (Isaiah 44:1-4)

"Do not tremble, do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me? No, there is no other Rock;
I know not one. "(Isaiah 44:8)

"Sing for joy, O heavens, for the Lord has done this; shout aloud, O earth beneath.
Burst into song, you mountains, you forests and all your trees, for the Lord has 
redeemed Jacob, he displays his glory in Israel." (Isaiah 44:23)

"I will go before you and will level the mountains, I will break down gates of bronze 
and cut through bars of iron. I will give you the treasures of darkness, riches stored
in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who 
summons you by name." (Isaiah 45:2-3)

 PRAYER

"Father, we come to Your throne this day and we say, 'Teach us Your ways and let it
 be done to us and the nations according to Your will.' Amen!"
