The Lord Woke Me Up

3/14/2011

The Lord woke me up and got me out of bed at 2:22 AM to tell you He loves you. God has a world message of I love you, but this morning the message is to each and every individual. God is love, and that is truth. There are things that have gone on in the lives of so many people and they are now hurt by love. God has a love that is not intended to hurt, and the pain does not come from His love. The pain comes from the lack of love given by nurtures – fathers, mothers, pastors, sisters, and brothers. The pain is caused by disobedience to the command of the Lord to love one another – God gave us a choice to have life or death. God has a love that asks us again and again and again to make the choice to love. God is life and God is love – love is life given or life denied as the choice to love is answered or left unanswered.

Jesus asked, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” (Matthew 12:48b). His answer, “For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother” (Matthew 12:50). It is God’s will that we love one another. The Spirit of God who has come to comfort us is His love – the Son who has already given His life for us is love (taking us back from the selfish pastors – shepherds and priests). The seed planted and the harvest gathered is love – bring a tithe of the tithe into the storehouse of God (no Levi required), and eat the remaining tithe before Him in a place of His choosing – try and see if He does not cause your basket to be pressed down and overflowing. Eat of God’s love, and leave the corners of the field for the widows and the homeless and the fatherless – and there will be no lack in the land of God’s people – no lack of His love. Feast on God’s love.

God has shown me an earthquake – it is not news today to speak of an earthquake – And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven (Luke 21:11). It does not require a prophet to speak of earthquakes in various places. The earthquake God has shown to me caused a great mountain to fall. The mountain is not rock and earth but a kingdom that has tried to rebuild its foundation – founded on love and now rebuilding the foundation from greed. The mountain is also a structure of stone and earth – for I have seen the mountains tremble. I beheld the earth, and indeed it was without form, and void; and the heavens, they had no light. I beheld the mountains, and indeed they trembled, and all the hills moved back and forth. I beheld, and indeed there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens had fled (Jeremiah 4:23-25). What has caused the Lord to be angry? What did you think would happen when His love was denied? He is love. This is not anger – this is us denying His love – denying Him.

The gospel will be preached – the voice of God will be heard like the sound of seven thunders from the heavens. The lights in the heavens will be a sign to the people of God, and the lost will seek the signs and the sign giver. But the hearts of some have become stones of greed and they will not be turned back. The greedy will call for the mountains to cover them, and blame God when their own words come on them. God gave the healing of the land to those called by His name – but even some of those have turned the gospel into a gospel of greed and the stones into daily bread. The tares are already in the message, but the angels of God are coming to bring a pure message – a new day and a new pure seed of God’s love. The Lord woke me up and got me out of bed at 2:22 AM to tell you He loves you.
