Preparing for Such a Time as This
Preparing for Such a Time as This
How do we do this?
The Word of God says this :-
“And as He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” And Jesus answered and said to them, “See to it that no one misleads you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and THEY WILL MISLEAD MANY PEOPLE. And you will be hearing of WARS AND RUMOURS OF WARS. See that you are not alarmed, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. For NATION WILL RISE AGAINST NATION AND KINGDOM AGAINST KINGDOM, and there will be FAMINES AND EARTHQUAKES IN VARIOUS PLACES. But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pains. “Then they will HAND YOU OVER TO TRIBULATION AND KILL YOU, AND YOU WILL BE HATED BY ALL NATIONS BECAUSE OF MY NAME. And at that time MANY WILL FALL AWAY, and they will betray one another and hate one another. And MANY FALSE PROPHETS will rise up and mislead many people. And because LAWLESSNESS IS INCREASED, most people’s love will become cold. But the one who endures to the end is the one who will be saved. This GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM SHALL BE PREACHED IN THE WHOLE WORLD as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come,” Matthew 24:3-14 (Emphasis mine).
“Are not the warnings of which Jesus spoke very clear to you by now?” says The LORD.
“Are not My people being misled — by governments, by big business, by their own shepherds?
Are not nations and kingdoms rising against one another threatening all sorts?
Are there not earthquakes almost daily — does not food threaten to get scarcer and more difficult to find?
Open your eyes and ears, those who have eyes to see and ears to hear!
Are not my people persecuted, are not biased judgements and prosecutions leveled against them?”, says God.
“Have not churches lost many who have fallen away this past three years? And there’s many more about to leave as the going gets tough! Are not false prophets abounding, and is not lawlessness increasing daily?
Yet,” says The LORD, “this Gospel of Salvation through My Son Jesus shall be preached to all the world! And salvation shall come to ALL Nations!”
My last post was this —– “Get ready. Be prepared, for I AM about to shake your houses, your prayer room, even your whole church building.
It will be no earthquake, only My Spirit putting everything into place ready for Me to move upon you in power,” says The LORD.
“Prepare your hearts and the people for such a time as this!”
People of God, The LORD is calling us to LEAD the world in this hour. He is not calling us to be led meekly, submissively to the hell on Earth planned by the enemy.
We are to LEAD. We are called to first BE READY — prepared, expectant, and ready to BE THE CHURCH Jesus called us to be — to heal the sick; to feed the hungry; to clothe the poor; to preach the Gospel and to raise disciples who, in turn, will raise disciples!
He is calling us to SPEAK UP for the disenfranchised, to STEP UP when volunteers are needed, and to STAND UP AND BE COUNTED when the chips are down!
We need to repent for our blindness to the world around us, to the signs of the times so obvious that even a blind man can see them.
We need to repent of our lukewarm Laodicean spirit and attitude that talks the talk but fails to walk the walk.
We need to reach up and tear down the enemy’s webs of deceit so that the Shekinah Glory of God can be revealed to a world lacking all hope.
We need to realise that WE ARE THE MANIFESTATION OF THE HOPE WE HAVE IN JESUS CHRIST, and we need to DEMONSTRATE that hope to the world around us.
The overwhelming message today is to RECOGNISE the Signs of the Times that Jesus spoke about — STAND FIRM IN OUR FAITH for the world around us to see — prepare to be the church in this hour – and listen and obey The Holy Spirit as He leads us!
To God be all the glory!

Chris Bennett came to salvation in 1962 but didn’t begin ministry until 2007 — a late-comer! Now mandated by The LORD to prophesy and open old wells of revival in the U.K., but especially in Wales. He has also operated Healing Rooms, and worked with deliverance teams, all with his wife, Linda. Happily now doing whatever The LORD asks of them! Founder, with wife Linda, of their ministry The Upper Room Encounter.
I think ‘Mary Mary’ meant to say “AMEN & AMEN!!!” Error signs are when an error adds to the meaning of a sign.
This is internet and text manipulation to make us look stupid. This is done by purpose, in any text, private messages and letters, and so in public. BUT GOD will turn it sooner or later against those wicked stalkers.
I AM
I think it was Rick Joyner who wrote:
“People will say that, “I am the Christ” not meaning they themselves are the Christ” (Matt 24:5).
People will say that, “I am the Christ” meaning Jesus is the Christ.”
They may quote the Bible like satan did. They may have ThDs and omit, add, and twist the Word. They may have oil poured on them and claim that they are anointed. Their robes of white might hide the spirit of religion (Matthew 23:27-28). Rick Joyner added that, “Respectability will bind people.” May I add that a false teaching will arise and the church will need ‘Vincent’s Word Studies’ to dispel that construction.
ANEN & ANEN!!!
