No Corners Cut, No Pacifying, No Round-About Way

She cries in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she utters her words, saying, How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and how long will the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? [Proverbs 1:20-21]. Don’t you know that dismissal of God’s messages led to disastrous outcomes. [Proverbs 29:1]. For every violation of the law and every act of disobedience is punished [Hebrews 2:1-2].

Wisdom shouts in the streets; Do not ignore the warnings because before God sends down a judgment against a people, He always sends a warning and when a warning is given, it also come with instructions on what to do to prepare for the destruction.

Listen, massive changes are coming. Wars will be fought on a scale never seen before, and weapons of mass destruction will be used. The level of nuclear devastation from the events of this Fifth Trumpet is prophetically revealed to destroy a third of the United States, which also means the death of over one hundred million people. “One Woe is past, and behold, there are two more Woes coming after this” [Revelation 9:12]. And it is at this juncture that the world is warned of even far greater destruction that will follow. [Revelation 9:13-16]. I know this is unimaginable, but it is soon going to come to pass. Do not ignore the warnings. Wisdom Shouts in the Streets. Warning comes before destruction. Heed the warnings.

Just as God warned the people of the impending doom through Noah, in Noah’s time, most people will ignore the warnings. Noah preached to the people for 120 years, trying to warn them of what was going to happen, but none would listen. They mocked and ridiculed him as he gave the warning. They laughed and insulted as he constructed the ark. The people would not believe Noah and because they did not believe it, the flood came and took them all away. [Matthew 24:30].

Wisdom Shouts in the Streets…. Heed the Warnings of God!

He said to me, “Daughter of man, stand up on your feet and I will speak to you.” As he spoke, the Spirit came into me and raised me to my feet, and I heard him speaking to me. He said: “Daughter of man, I am sending you to rebellious people that has rebelled against me; they and their ancestors have been in revolt against me to this very day. The people to whom I am sending you are obstinate and stubborn. Say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says.’ And whether they listen or fail to listen—for they are a rebellious people—they will know that a prophet has been among them.  And you, daughter of man, do not be afraid of them or their words. Do not be afraid, though briers and thorns are all around you and you live among scorpions. Do not be afraid of what they say or be terrified by them, though they are rebellious people. You must speak my words to them, whether they listen or fail to listen, for they are rebellious. But you, daughter of man, listen to what I say to you. Do not rebel like that rebellious people; open your mouth and eat what I give you.”

Then I looked, and I saw a hand stretched out to me. In it was a scroll, which he unrolled before me. On both sides of it were written words of lament and mourning and woe. And he said to me, “Daughter of man, eat what is before you, eat this scroll; then go and speak to the people.” So, I opened my mouth, and he gave me the scroll to eat. So, I ate it, and it tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth. He then said to me: “Daughter of man, go now to the people of and speak my words to them.  [Ezekiel chapter 2]

This is what the Sovereign Lord says. The night is nearly over, and the day is almost here. [Psalms 90: 11-12]. What day? The day of trouble described in [Matthew 24:21; Mark 13 and Luke 21]. The day of trouble, described back in [Ezekiel 36, Daniel 12] and elsewhere as the “Great Tribulation.” Listen to the sound of the trumpet.

But they said, “We will not listen.” [Jeremiah 6:17] The word of the Lord has become a reproach to them. They have no delight in it. [Jeremiah 6:10]. For they have done worse than their fathers; walking everyone after the imagination of his evil heart, stiffened their neck, turned to Me their back and not their face. And though I have taught them persistently, they have not listened to receive My instruction [Jeremiah 16:12; Jeremiah 17:23; Jeremiah 32:33]. God grieves. This has been their way from their youth, that they have not obeyed My voice although I persistently sent them all My servants the prophets. They are stubborn and hard-hearted people!

Jeremiah impugns God’s people for failing to listen, then records God’s message to them: “Therefore, thus says the Lord; Behold, I am bringing disaster upon you that you cannot escape. You have provoked Me to anger with the work of your hands to your own harm because you have neither listened nor inclined your ears to hear. [Jeremiah 11:11; Jeremiah 25:3-4].

God’s judgment came after twenty-three years of persistently speaking to stubborn and hard-hearted children who refused to listen. What a tragedy!

Your house will be left desolate. Not one stone will be left on another; everyone will be thrown down. [Matthew 24:2].

So, when you see standing in the Holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’ spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let no one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house. Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again. [Matthew 24:15-21].

Since you are not willing to listen know that the Lord Almighty is mustering an army for war. They come from faraway lands, from the ends of the heavens— the Lord and the weapons of His wrath— to destroy the whole country. Wail, for the day of the Lord is near; it will come like destruction from the Almighty. Because of this, all hands will go limp, every heart will melt with fear. Terror will seize you; pain and anguish will grip you; you will writhe like a woman in labor. You will look aghast at each other, your face aflame. For, the day of the Lord is coming —a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger— to make the land desolate [Isaiah 13:4-9].

Wisdom Call – Does not wisdom call out? Does not understanding raise her voice? At the highest point along the way, where the paths meet, she takes her stand; beside the gate leading into the city, at the entrance, she cries aloud: “To you, O people, I call out; I raise my voice to all mankind. You who are simple, gain prudence; you who are foolish, set your hearts on it.

Listen, I have trustworthy things to say; I open my lips to say what is right. My mouth speaks what is true, for my lips detest wickedness. All the words of my mouth are just; none of them is crooked or perverse. To the discerning all of them are right; they are upright to those who have found knowledge. Choose my instruction instead of silver, knowledge rather than choice gold, for wisdom is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Counsel and sound judgment are mine; I have insight, I have power. I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me. Now then, my children, listen to me; blessed are those who keep my ways. Listen to my instruction and be wise; do not disregard it. [Proverbs 8].

Throughout Bible history, God has repeatedly provided man with more than “ample warning” of His impending judgments. His purpose for warning man is to motivate him to repent and come back to Him [Luke 15; 1 Peter 3:20; 2 Peter 3:9; Revelation 8; Revelation 9]. For the most part, man has not taken advantage of God’s “ample warning” because of his evil and doubting heart; man will be destroyed! [Genesis 6:5; Deuteronomy 1:35; Revelation 9:21].

For thus saith the Lord. I am about to do a shocking thing. I am going to carry out all my threats. For the days will come upon you, when your enemies will set up a barricade around you and surround you and hem you in on every side and tear you down to the ground, you, and your children within you. And they will not leave one stone upon another in you. [Luke 19:43–44]

I raised up many prophetic voices to call you to repentance and to warn you that continued rebellion will lead to doom, but naw, you refused to listen.  Instead, you stiffened in your rebellion against Me. The result is that America has passed the point of no return, the point of “dread release,” from judgment to destruction.

Brutal defeat of America in War Prophecy – “Unites States of America [USA]. You have rejected the One who made you. The One who made you strong, mighty in battle, a stumbling block to many, the One whom your fathers knew. You have gone after a stranger, a strange woman. Is the wrath of the Lord not revealed upon you? For you will be given out to a war, a battle with one who was once feeble before thee. Your weaponry will fall from your hands. Your nuclear weapons will fail before your enemies. A brutal defeat you will face America, and the whole world will look at who was once mighty in battle, once feared strong, and mock you. The strange woman whom you defile yourself with will look at you as you lie down defeated and laugh at you mockingly. For I have set a war before thee.” America is doomed! [Christian Truth Center].

Noah preaching. Noah warned everyone of the coming judgment. Noah begged people to believe God, to repent, and flee from the wrath to come for there was only one way to escape [Matthew 7:13,14] and only a short opportunity to get onto the Ark – don’t wait until it’s too late, judgment is coming.

God’s warnings always precedes His judgment. America is going to war!

“Everybody talkin’ ’bout heaven ain’t goin’ there.” O my Lord!

[I Corinthians 6:9-11] says, “Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.” [Revelation 9:21; Revelation 21:27; Revelation 22:15; Galatians 5:19-21].

As in [Proverbs chapter 30 verse 12] it says, “There is a kind of generation who is pure in their own eyes, yet not washed from their filthiness,” “They have a zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge.” [Romans 10:2]. I tell you, “Everybody talkin’ ‘bout heaven ain’t goin’ there.”

The Word of God is quite clear that many will be excluded from Heaven. [Matthew 7:13-14]. Jesus warned, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness” [Matthew 7:21-23]. Your soul is being weighed in the balances. Mene, Mene,Tekel, Peres [Daniel 5:7]. Depart from Me, ye that work iniquity. [Matthew 7:21-23].

Everybody talkin’ ‘bout heaven ain’t goin’ there.” Oh my Lord!

Too late! You should have nipped in the bud. Over and over again, God gave you opportunity after opportunity to get it together. But Naw, you thought that you would have time, just like the people whom God invited to the Banquet. He sent his servant to tell those who had been invited, come for everything is now ready! But they all began to make excuses. The first said I have just bought a field, and I must go and see it please excuse me. Another said I just bought five yolk of oxen and I am on my way to try them out, please excuse me. Still another said, I just got married so I can’t come. Then God said, those who were invited will not get a taste of my banquet, it was too late for them to come and partake of the banquet. Stop your crying!

Now if you are reading this and you are putting off salvation, you better think about the consequences of your delay. For in [2 Corinthians 6:2] Jesus says, “In the time of my favor I heard you. Don’t wait until it’s too late! Now is the acceptable time. Now is the day of salvation. Don’t waste the moment.  Remember in [John 8:12-21] Jesus responded to a charge and a question from the Pharisees telling them that if they miss the opportunity, it will never be afforded to them again. I tell you wisdom is the principal thing, but in all your getting get an understanding. How shall you escape if you neglect so great salvation? [Hebrews 2:3].

Remember, Jesus told the Pharisees that after He was gone, they would realize what they had missed. They would then try to search for Him but would be unable to find Him. Don’t you wait until it’s too late! Failure to take advantage of the opportunity which God affords you means that you will die in your sin. Take advantage of the opportunities God’s grace provides.

The same choice that was offered to the Israelites, in [Deuteronomy 30:11-20] is the same choice being offered to you today. The choice of life or death. I admonish you to choose life. Don’t be on the fence like the children of Israel who refused to stand for the Lord at Mount Camel until they saw the power of God. Make your stand known today by making the right choice. Choose life!

Listen, we have been told in the Word of God that there would come a time when this world, as we know it, will end. Don’t wait until it’s too late, things are about to come to a screeching halt. God said it and He is not man, that he should lie, or a son of man, that he should change his mind. [Numbers 23:19]. Choose life, so that you and your descendant may live. Don’t presume on God’s goodness in sparing you or conclude that you can keep on ignoring His warnings. Because over the years, God has been speaking to you, and so far, you have turned your back on Him. But don’t keep doing it because, you don’t know when your life will end—and once it does, it will be too late. The Bible warns that there is no second chance after death! It says that “man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment” [Hebrews 9:27].

Today, you have a very serious choice to make.  Choose wisely!  Because there will come a point when God gets fed up and He will not relent from His judgment. [Amos 7:1-9]. For thus saith the Lord, I will spare them no longer. I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing, and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.” [Genesis 6:3-7].

“Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live!”

Because there can be no doubt that we are living in the last days. The signs we are seeing and the things taking place in this world point to the soon coming final events, the mark of the beast, the time of trouble and the return of Jesus Christ. In all your getting, get an understanding! [Proverbs 4:7].

You can know what the signs are that will precede Christ’s coming and watch for them. Why stay in ignorance about the meaning of the events taking place around you? Jesus commands watch and to be ready. [Luke 21:36]. I tell you; your entire life is about to change. Events will unfold soon to destroy the world’s way of life as we have known it. Soon, mankind will suffer through the most devastating, bloody war in human history—called, in biblical terminology, the Great Tribulation. [Matthew 24:21–22]. We are now approaching that time, and these things are now being revealed. [Daniel 12:10]. In all your getting, get an understanding!

We are living in a time like no other before us, and yet just as in the days of Noah and Lot, people continue to ‘eat and drink’ and live as if nothing is going to happen.

What willful ignorance! The truth is that God is shaking all that can be shaken. And what is still to come is too dreadful to think about.

Listen in [Romans 13:11] we are given a warning. “And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now, is our salvation nearer than when we believed.” The Apostle Paul is telling us that we need to be aware of the times in which we live and act accordingly. Jesus also stressed the importance of this when He asked, “Can you not discern the signs of the times?” [Matthew 16:3]. I tell you; you must understand the spiritual significance of current events. We are not living in ordinary times. We are nearing the end of an age—the end of a civilization. So, in all your getting, get an understanding. A world-shaking crisis is inexorably building and will, in the near future, explode the appearance of normalcy. You need to know that the progression of disturbing news stories is not random and inconsequential. In fact, they foreshadow remarkable key trends and specific events that will change everything you are familiar with in the next few decades!

Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you. Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore, get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding.  [Proverbs 4:5-7].

God wanted his people to enjoy the bounty of the Promised Land. But He didn’t make them accept it. Even though choosing His way is the best way. The choice was theirs. [Deuteronomy 30:15-16]. Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish hearts was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools. Wherefore God gave them up. [Proverbs 29:1; Romans 1:21-24; Ezekiel 18:23, 30-32; 33:11; 2 Peter 3:9]. Looks Like Another Love TKO!

I called you so often, but you wouldn’t come. I reached out to you, but you paid no attention. You ignored My advice and rejected the correction I offered. So, I will laugh when you are in trouble! I will mock you when disaster overtakes you— when calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster engulfs you like a cyclone, and anguish and distress overwhelm you. When you cry for help, I will not answer. Though you will anxiously search for Me, you will not find me. For you hated knowledge and chose not to fear the Lord. You rejected my advice. Therefore, you must eat the bitter fruit of living your own way. Looks Like Another Love TKO!

If you are reading this, I beg you don’t be another Esau. Esau wept bitterly that he could not repent [Hebrews 12:17]. The Hell he was entering into he found to be miserable, and he wanted out. The rich man, begged Father Abraham to send Lazarus to his brother’s house so that they would not come to the miserable, place he was in. What is it going to take? What wakeup call do you need? As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that they turn from their ways and live. Turn! Turn from your evil ways! Why will you die, O house of Israel?” [Ezekiel 33:11]. Because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, ““As surely as I live, says the Sovereign LORD, I will cut you off completely. I will not look on you with pity or spare you.” The restraints are off. [Ezekiel 5:11; Matthew 15:14; Romans 2:5].

I think I Better Let It Go… Looks Like Another Love TKO!
