Lady Gaga 666 Hand-Signs at 2013 VMA

Evangelist Lady Gaga leading the worship service of 666 on the 2013 VMA


Well the "princess of darkness" Lady Gaga was at it again at the MTV Video Music Awards show.  She was seen throwing up the 666 hand-signs throughout the performance of her song "Applause."  Gaga, in her music videos, concerts, and music awards performances, takes it to another level when projecting Illuminati/satanic symbols.  This method is used as subliminal messages to enter the subconscious minds of the intended audience/worshipers/victims to sow satanic messages.  Ultimately, this leads people away from G-d and the Truth.



Video and Still Pictures of Gaga's Hand -Signs at 2013 VMA Performance



  






Objective of Lady Gaga Message is to Awaken the Wolf/Beast in Man


Satanic Priest Discusses the use of Music and Symbolism as Spiritual Warfare

Lady Gaga looks as if she has taken a page out of Satanic Priest Nikolas Schreck's satanic play book by using her music and symbolism to open her fans/worshipers to the realm of the demonic. Her message is that of sexual immorality, rebellion, and gender confusion. She is one of Satan's leading evangelists in the entertainment world because her message is so blatantly in your face.  It is literally preparing people to receive the soon coming Anti-Christ.  Lady Gaga is ultimately seeking to eradicate Judeo-Christian values from the youth, and uplift the satanic values of "do wilt thou will" or "do whatever you want." 

Christian parents listen up!  There's a spiritual battle taking place for the hearts and minds of your children.  We need to pray and properly discern the evil times in which we live.  Christian children!  It's time to stop watching MTV, and listening and looking at music videos that are contrary to the Word of G-d.  Get this junk out of your physical house and out of your hearts!  Jesus Christ is soon to come! Will you be ready when He does?

       

Revelation 18:1-4

King James Version (KJV)
18 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Desmond Tutu: An Emissary of Satan Desires Hell

Archbishop Tutu Would Rather Go to Hell Than Go to a Homophobic Heaven!

South Africa's retired False Archbishop   and Nobel Peace Prize winner Desmond Tutu was speaking at the launch of the United Nations-backed campaign in South Africa to promote gay rights. Tutu compared homophobia to racism. He went on to say that he would rather go to Hell than go to a Homophobic Heaven(source)!  I don't think Tutu is working on the Kingdom of Heaven team.  What team is he working for then? You guessed it! Team Satan and the Kingdom of Darkness! Behind the clergy collar and the religious title of Archbishop, this man is an emissary for Satan. He is not at all a man of G-d, but a man of Satan! Let's look at the the truth of the roots behind the agenda Desmond Tutu is attempting to advance for the kingdom of darkness.


Desmond Tutu's Devilish Resume 

Tutu desires a One World Government and a One World Religion

Desmond Tutu follows an agenda that is Anti-Christ. This man not only promotes homosexuality, but abortion, one world government, one world religion, and an anti-biblical view of Jesus Christ.

Point 1: Tutu promotes abortion.
He has stated the following about abortion, "Planned Parenthood is an obligation of those who are Christians. Our church thinks we should use scientific methods that assist in planning families(source)."

Point 2: Tutu is helping to push a one-world government.
Not only is Desmond Tutu a supporter of the United Nations, but as quiet as it's kept he is a supporter of "The World Constitution and Parliament Association."  What is The World Constitution and Parliament Association? It's an association that is looking to replace the United Nations.  It looks to protect the mother earth environment, abolish war, make world patriotism the norm over national patriotism, operate world judiciary, defend universal human rights, and end poverty (source).  This association is attempting to usher in a one-world government, in which Tutu is playing a role.  This man is obviously globalist.

Point 3: Desmond Tutu is a proud member and supporter of the United Religious Initiative.
The United Religious Initiative is an organization that was established by Episcopal Bishop William Swing. Swing's vision is to set up a united nations of religions, and ultimately establish a one world religion.

Point 4: Desmond Tutu holds anti-biblical beliefs of Jesus Christ.
This false Bishop doesn't even believe in the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ(source). In his book "God is not a Christian: And Other Provocations," he promotes inclusion stating that all religions, atheist, and sinners are the children of God(source/source). Let's see how Tutu's beliefs don't lineup with the scriptures:

Romans 10:9

King James Version (KJV)
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

John 14:6

King James Version (KJV)
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.


Desmond Tutu is a strong believer in the "doctrine of inclusion," and not the "gospel of Jesus Christ." He is an agent of Satan who is promoting the agenda of Anti-Christ while aiding the soon coming system of Anti-Christ as seen in Revelation 13.

Tutu, you don't have to worry about going to a "homophobic heaven" because 1 Corinthians 6:9 states that those who participate in homosexual activity shall not inherit the Kingdom of God.  Any person with unrepented sin that is against the Word of God will not inherit the Kingdom of God. Your Nobel Peace Prize and other worldly accolades will not help you when you are judged in the final judgement of Jesus Christ.  If you don't repent you will be cast into the Lake of Fire because of your unbelief in Jesus Christ and your disobedience to the Word of God.

Trust me, if Tutu gets his wish to go to Hell, he will soon find out that it's a place of  everlasting torment, fire, darkness, and gnashing of teeth.

Psalm 2 reminds me of Desmond Tutu's words and action(see below).


Psalm 2

Amplified Bible (AMP)

Psalm 2

Why do the nations assemble with commotion [uproar and confusion of voices], and why do the people imagine (meditate upon and devise) an empty scheme?
The kings of the earth take their places; the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and His Anointed One (the Messiah, the Christ). They say,
Let us break Their bands [of restraint] asunder and cast Their cords [of control] from us.
He Who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord has them in derision [and in supreme contempt He mocks them].
He speaks to them in His deep anger and troubles (terrifies and confounds) them in His displeasure and fury, saying,
Yet have I anointed (installed and placed) My King [firmly] on My holy hill of Zion.
I will declare the decree of the Lord: He said to Me, You are My Son; this day [I declare] I have begotten You.
Ask of Me, and I will give You the nations as Your inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth as Your possession.
You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them in pieces like potters’ ware.
10 Now therefore, O you kings, act wisely; be instructed and warned, O you rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with reverent awe and worshipful fear; rejoice and be in high spirits with trembling [lest you displease Him].
12 Kiss the Son [pay homage to Him in purity], lest He be angry and you perish in the way, for soon shall His wrath be kindled. O blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied) are all those who seek refuge and put their trust in Him!

Spirit Channeling/Possession on Nickelodeon Show The Haunted Hathaways



The new family show on Nickelodeon called "The Haunted Hathaways," is based on a single mother, and her two daughters moving into an house in New Orleans, Louisiana which is occupied by three ghost: a single father and his two sons. This program deals with how both families solve their problems, which is done through the use of ghost powers and normal human ways(source).  It seems like a very cute and innocent show.  However in some parts of the show it illustrates how the three ghosts use their powers to aide the humans or cause them to act out of character by channeling their spirits into a human host (spirit possession). What is taking place within this program under the disguise of a nice family show, is the indoctrination or programming of people to accept spirit channeling, and how spirit channeling can aid person in receiving ungodly supernatural power.



Video Clips of Channeling on The Haunted Hathaways

Episode# 5 Ghost boy Louie possesses Human girl Frankie   










The Real Deal with Spirit Channeling and Ghost





What is spirit channeling? Spirit channeling is nothing more than modern day term for mediumship. Channeling is spirit possession. Now the form of channeling you see on "The Haunted Hathaways," is spontaneous channeling. With spontaneous channeling the spirits take control whenever they please, and the channeler is at the mercy of the spirits(source). Channeling in Biblical terms is nothing more than old fashion demon possession. Ghosts in reality, are nothing more than demon spirits/familiar spirits, imitating a person who once was alive.  Look at what the famous Freemason philosopher and occultist Manly P. Hall had to say in his book "The Secret of All Ages":



"The majority of modern mediumistic apparitions are but elemental creatures masquerading through bodies composed of thought substances supplied by the very persons desiring to behold these wraiths of decarnate beings (source)." 

Hall states a fact when he says that these beings aren't departed souls of someone, but indeed a spirit entity masquerading as that person's once alive departed one's spirit.

As parents, especially Christian parent's, we need to monitor, and operate in spiritual discernment when it comes to what your kids watch and listen. Satan is using all of his demonic resources to deceive and enslave the youth into his kingdom of darkness, ultimately leading them to Hell.  Parents "The Haunted Hathaways," is being used as teaching method to teach children that spirit channeling and the inquiring of spirits is normal.  Please beware!


Isaiah 8:19

King James Version (KJV)
19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead? 

Palestinian Authority Denies Jewish Right to Western Wall









PA Presidential Guards deny Jewish right to Western Wall – Screenshot: Arutz Sheva



Claim is the latest example in a string of anti-Israel propaganda, as "peace talks" set to begin.




In what is being described as yet another example of Palestinian Authority (PA) denial of the Jewish connection to Jerusalem and the very legitimacy of the State of Israel, the Presidential Guard of Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas has claimed the Western Wall as an Arab and Islamic site.
Palestinian Media Watch(PMW), an NGO which monitors incitement, anti-Semitism and anti-Israel propaganda on Palestinian Arab TV, has revealed that last week, a picture of the Western Wall was posted onto the PA Presidential Guard's official Facebook page with a PA flag superimposed on it, along with the words "The Al Buraq Wall - Public Relations and Information - The Presidential Guard - Palestinian youth know their rights."
The Western Wall is a relic of the retaining wall of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem, which was destroyed by Imperial Roman in 70CE. For nearly 2,000 years Jews were prevented from worshipping on the Temple Mount, Judaism's holiest site, and instead prayed at the wall, which has since become a holy site in its own right, at which millions of Jews congregate to pray each year. Ongoing restrictions on Jewish prayer on the Temple Mount mean that the Wall is still the primary place of Jewish worship in Jerusalem.
"Al Buraq" is the name given to the Western Wall by Arab rejectionists, who deny the Jewish connection to Jerusalem.

They claim that the wall has nothing to do with the Jewish Temples, despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary; instead, they assert that it is the place where Muhammed tethered his mythical winged horse Buraq hundreds of years later, when according to some Islamic legends it transported him from Mecca to Jerusalem and back - despite the fact that Jerusalem is never mentioned in the Quran. 

PMW noted that this is only the latest example of PA rejectionism and denial of the Jewish people's claim to Jerusalem and the Land of Israel, as a way of rejecting the State of Israel's very legitimacy and right to exist.
Despite the start of much-lauded "peace talks" between Israel and the PA, Arutz Sheva has reported on the continued campaign of anti-Israel and anti-Semitic propaganda and incitement to violence by the PA through its official organs.

For example, last week the PA's official TV station broadcast a crudely anti-Semitic program which legitimized violence against Jews in Judea and Samaria, who were stereotyped as violent thieves. The end of the program glorified the humiliation of a religious Jew by cutting off his peyot side-curls, in a scene chillingly reminiscent of Nazi anti-Jewish propaganda.
Other Ramadan broadcasts include a re-run of a music video encouraging violence against Israelis, and the glorification of the murderer of 61 Israeli civilians on the official Facebook page of Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah party.

Recently, an anchor on the PA's official news station declared that a future "Palestinian state" would extend from Rosh Hanikra in northern Israel to Eilat in the south - effectively wiping Israel off the map.
These incidents and others led to Israeli PM Binyamin Netanyahucomplaining directly to US Secretary of State John Kerry, who has been pushing the Israeli government to enter into talks with the PA.

(One-World Religion): Church of England creating 'pagan church' to recruit members

Pagans at Stonehenge during Summer Solstice




The church is training ministers to create “a pagan church where Christianity [is] very much in the centre” to attract spiritual believers.
Ministers are being trained to create new forms of Anglicanism suitable for people of alternative beliefs as part of a Church of England drive to retain congregation numbers.
Reverend Steve Hollinghurst, a researcher and adviser in new religious movements told the BBC: “I would be looking to formulate an exploration of the Christian faith that would be at home in their culture.”
He said it would be “almost to create a pagan church where Christianity was very much in the centre.”
The Church Mission Society, which is training ministers to “break new ground”, hopes to see a number of spiritual people align themselves with Christianity.
Andrea Campenale, of the Church Mission Society, said: “Nowadays people, they want to feel something; they want to have some sense of experience.
“We live in reflective England where there’s much more of a focus on ourselves. I think that is something we can bring in dialogue with the Christian society.”
The Church Mission Society’s webpage advertising their pioneer training scheme states: “Wherever in the world the mission of Jesus goes on, the church needs pioneer mission leaders to break new ground.”
The news comes as spiritual seekers celebrate the summer solstice at Stonehenge today.
Pagans and druids will gather to watch the sun rise following the longest day of the year, celebrating at the historic monument.
The new move could see famous druids such as druid leader Arthur Pendragon move to Anglicanism.
More than 20,000 people gathered at Stonehenge today ahead of a £27 million transformation of the site.
The huge gathering of people marked the event in a "positive, friendly atmosphere" as they waited for the sun to come up, but cloudy skies prevented them from basking in a beautiful sunrise.
Superintendent Matt Pullen from Wiltshire Police said: "Solstice 2013 has been a great success with approximately 21,000 people celebrating in the positive, friendly atmosphere as they waited for sunrise.
"The weather held but unfortunately the cloud cover was too dense to see the sun come up."
Loraine Knowles, Stonehenge director at English Heritage, said that although Stonehenge never failed to impress visitors, the setting of the stones had marred people's appreciation and enjoyment of the site.

Bible Old Testament Principality for Abortion(Spirit of Abortion)

Molech god of the Ammonites

The Fire of Molech

Chemosh god of the Moabites

The origin or the spirit of abortion can most likely be found several centuries ago in the culture of the the Moabite and Ammonite people. The people of Moab and Ammon worshiped the gods Chemosh(god of the Moabites), and Molech/Moloch(god of the Ammonites).

These gods were primarily identical with each other. They were both fire-gods. They were common to all the Canaanite, Syrian, and Arab tribes, who worshiped the destructive element under an outward symbol with most inhumane rites. According to Jewish tradition, the image of Molech/Moloch was described as brass and hollow within, a face of a calf, and his hands outstretched and open to receive(something) of his neighbor.

The worship practice of these gods would be kindled with fire and Chemerian(priest of the cult) took the babe and put it in the hands of Molech, and the babe gave up the ghost(died). This was an act of human sacrifice or ancient abortion during this time period.

The names of Chemosh and Molech mean subduer, and king. Subduer, meaning Satan's way of destroying man's seed, to suppress man's inhabitancies of the earth, and an indirect attack against G-d, by attempting to destroy G-d's creation. Molech means king or a principality.  Principality in the Hebrew means mar'ashah - demon; prop. Headship, dominion. In the Greek it means arch, chief(in various applications of order, time, place or rank): beginning, corner, (at the) first(estate) magistrate, power, principle, role. Which we can see the connection of Chemosh and Molech being the prince of abortion in the Old Testament Bible.

In modern terms, the doctors that perform abortions are nothing more than your modern day Chemarian of Chemosh and Molech, who kill off a woman's fetus. As we can see in Psalm 106:35-38 states that in reality the people were really sacrificing children to devils. Ultimately behind modern day abortion clinics, and abortions,  is Satan and his army of darkness.

Psalm 106:35-38

Amplified Bible (AMP)
35 But mingled themselves with the [idolatrous] nations and learned their ways and works
36 And served their idols, which were a snare to them.
37 Yes, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons
38 And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; and the land was polluted with their blood. 

      

Ephesians 6:12

King James Version (KJV)
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Bash Mobs: The Spirit of Anti-christ and Lawlessness


Bash Mobs in Southern Cali





The Bible speaks about in the "last days" that lawlessness will prevail.

2 Timothy 3:1-5

King James Version (KJV)
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.


Matthew 24:12

Amplified Bible (AMP)
12 And the love of [a]the great body of people will grow cold because of the multiplied lawlessness and iniquity,

2 Thessalonians 2:3-8

Amplified Bible (AMP)
Let no one deceive or beguile you in any way, for that day will not come except the [a]apostasy comes first [unless the predicted great [b]falling away of those who have professed to be Christians has come], and the man of lawlessness (sin) is revealed, who is the son of doom (of perdition),
Who opposes and exalts himself so proudly and insolently against and over all that is called God or that is worshiped, [even to his actually] taking his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming that he himself is God.
Do you not recollect that when I was still with you, I told you these things?
And now you know what is restraining him [from being revealed at this time]; it is so that he may be manifested (revealed) in his own [appointed] time.
For the mystery of lawlessness (that hidden principle of rebellion against constituted authority) is already at work in the world, [but it is] restrained only until [c]he who restrains is taken out of the way.
And then the lawless one (the antichrist) will be revealed and the Lord Jesus will slay him with the breath of His mouth and bring him to an end by His appearing at His coming.

Modern day Showdown between Jezebel and Elijah Part 2

Source of Article The Pen of the Watchman




The Lord showed me(Dr. I.J. West) about 3 years ago that we are headed for another showdown at Mt. Carmel just like Elijah vs. the prophets of Baal as in the book of 1st KINGS chapter 18. The prophets of Baal represent those desiring celebrity status and recognition who are misleading the saints by being friends with the world. They are accepted and approved of in high places such as the presidency in exchange for the castration of their voices in silence as eunuchs who are made impotent to speak out against the gay rights agenda and infant murder called abortion, just as the prophets of Baal who served Jezebel and were given protection and prominence by the wicked kings of Israel such as Ahab. King Ahab represents the government and those under them who have sold out completely to Satan, and of whom the Holy Scriptures said in 1st KINGS 21:25"But there was none like unto Ahab, which did sell himself to work wickedness in the sight of the LORD, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up." 

The prophets of Baal also had a group of contemporaries or counterparts known as "the prophets of the groves" who were a smaller group of idolaters that mingled the worship of the Lord with false gods, similar to the New Age Movement, Catholicism and the Freemasons. They all engaged in ritual witchcraft, idolatry, homosexuality, adultery & fornication, and also in child sacrifices unto demon gods such as "Baal", "Ashtoreth", and "Molech". The modern day false prophets of Baal and of the groves make what Satan presents through the world acceptable to the Church through their public and open endorsement of ungodly celebrity figures, the ignoring of blatant sin, the lack of transparency and accountability among leadership, and the poisoning of gospel music with worldly music and artists. They are also misleading thousands who are truly seeking God by mixing the clean with the unclean and the holy with the profane. These are worldly ministers ruled by the spirit of Jezebel just as King Ahab of Israel was also influenced and ruled over by his wife the real Jezebel. Jezebel and Ahab were one in purpose, and in turn birthed ungodly offspring who would do just as wickedly as they had done such as "king Jehoram, king Ahaziah, and queen Athaliah". We are seeing the corruption of a generation happen right before our very eyes just as back then, and the LORD himself will soon deal with it in spectacular fashion before his second coming so that the church and the world may know that he alone is still God Almighty.

REVELATIONS 2:20-23"Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols. 21) And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 22) Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. 23) And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works."

These celebrity preachers are household names who many of the saints believe to be genuine and choose to ignore the clear evidence that they are not what they appear because many of the smaller leaders want to be like them and endorse them. They are accepted because of their success among men of which foolish folks believe means they are blessed by God rather than promoted by Satan as a deception to fool the very elect. The bigger they become the greater they exercise their influence over others in ungodliness. There are many ministers, pastors, and others who idolize these figures and make comparisons of themselves to them because they desire to have the same type of success, status, and recognition as them. How many times have you heard a pastor talk about big member numbers or the gaining of material things over the pulpit as if that is a sign of blessings or progress? Why do they desire such large followings and wealth? Why does so much of the conversation seem to go towards who they are or what they have? These five-fold ministry gifts have made men and women their examples of godliness and ministerial success more so than the Lord Yeshua Moshiach (Jesus Christ), and don't see the damage they are doing to themselves, the ministers they are mentoring & training, and the congregations they are leading. These behaviors create an "elitist" class of ministers who believe their perceived status grants them a "false grace" from God which makes them cutting edge and gives them a license to teach non-biblical doctrines and do outrageous acts. They feel "enlightened" and everyone else is behind them or needs to catch up to them. This is the same doctrine and teaching of satanists and the "Illuminati" who believe they are the "illuminated" or true "enlightened ones". This is a doctrine of devils being brought in by ambitious and stupid church leaders.

These celebrity preachers and wannabes fraternize with worldly and ungodly celebrity figures, like Oprah, who has openly and on more than one occasion denied the Lordship of Christ and declared herself as her own god. I was once unfriended on Facebook by another saint who got offended because I said so, and then they went on to claim how that Oprah had personally helped them as if they were close friends, but to my knowledge they've never met Oprah. I was even told how it was dangerous for me to speak out against a man of God such as T.D. Jakes, but yet I wasn't respected as a man of God with the commission and authority to do so because of comparison in status as they saw it; not as God sees it. Just that statement of itself told me that even the seasoned people of God are being easily duped and bewitched by the spirit of seduction through like figures. It is further enhanced when famous ministers such as T.D. Jakes promote these figures behind a legitimate issue such as fatherless children in his upcoming "MegaFest" conference with Oprah Winfrey as a part of her "Life Classes". This is an endorsement of the ungodly agenda of the "New Age Oprah" which gives her a platform in the church and those like her by association. It will further skew the minds of other believers in Christ who have already been duped by such presentations as "Oprah's Super Soul Sunday" (why on Sunday?), and her "Life Classes" where New Age gurus and perverted ministers are the teachers. Many will refute what I am saying here and say things like, "I felt the power of God" or "I didn't see anything ungodly." These are the things they say when they view Oprah's ungodly programming. The problem is they are going by their "feelings" rather than judging these things by God's Word. This type of "friendship" or acceptance of the world makes one an enemy of God Almighty. Many have already been seduced and traded to the wrong side, the losing side, without even knowing it.

JAMES 4:4 "Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God."

God gave Ahab and Jezebel space to repent but finally his judgment fell on them and also their children because of their continual rebellion. However, before they were removed the Lord got rid of the 450 prophets of Baal after exposing them as false messengers. The Bible records the words of God's true prophet Elijah when addressing the wicked king Ahab in 1st KINGS 17:1"And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word." Elijah stood in the presence of the LORD God, and through his constant intercession he was given a word and the supernatural authority to shut up the heavens so there would be no rain in order to bring about a drought that would make the nation of Israel turn to God. We are seeing the same results in the economic downturn, terrorist attacks, and political upheaval in the world, which I believe is a direct result of both Bible prophecy, judgment, and the intercession of the true saints of Almighty God to try and get people to turn to the Lord Yeshua. Elijah asked the nation of Israel a question in 1st KINGS 18:21"And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word." The same question must be asked today and a choice must be made. The true prophets of today must continually stand before the Lord as did Elijah, and look to perform the supernatural works of the gospel because of the scientific and mystical age in which we are living. Just as Pharaoh's magicians imitated the rod of Moses so are the world and these false prophets mimicking real moves of God by the power of Satan to deceive many; even of the veteran saints among us. Elijah always comes before the coming of the Lord just as John came as the forerunner of Christ. It's going to rain again!
LUKE 1:17;  "And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord."

The spirit of Elijah represents the prophetic mantle and the undying word of God, which is why Elijah was taken alive into heaven without seeing death. In contrast, Moses who represented the law, died and was  buried by God himself but yet we see both Moses and Elijah bodily alive in the New Testament on the Mount of Transfiguration talking to Christ, and representing "the law and the prophets"MARK 9:4"And there appeared unto them Elijah with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus." God's law can't be killed, only fulfilled, and it will serve to judge all those who have not received the grace made available through Christ as declared by the ever living testimony of Jesus Christ, which is the spirit of prophecy. REVELATIONS 19:10"And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." The prophetic testimony of the gospel, will serve as the final witness against all those who walk ungodly; especially these false ministers. The younger generation of ministers want to be celebrities like the ministers they see because they think that is where the power is but that is a lie from hell. Christ even said himself that not everyone who appears to be performing the work of the Kingdom of God is the genuine article in MATTHEW 7:22-23"Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23) And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." The Lord is saying here that their works in his name were never authorized by him and that he never had a real relationship with or commissioned these ministers. He blessed for the people's sake in spite of the minister, not because of the minister. They are gifted false messengers who will be judged accordingly.

2nd CORINTHIANS 11:13-15;  "For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 14) And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 15) Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."

The prophet Elijah stood alone on the top of Mt. Carmel against 450 false prophets before the people of Israel, but he wasn't truly alone. There were other prophets hidden away from the treachery and murder of Jezebel, but Elijah was the one chosen to take an open stand for the LORD and his fellow prophets. The truth always seems outnumbered by what is false and the lie always makes headlines and gets the spotlight first, but the truth is the only eternal light that will continue to shine long after God puts the deceptive light of Satan and the world out. Not every minister in church or in the public eye is of God and many are agents of Satan seeking their own fame & fortune. The beloved apostle Saint John writes to us about them and calls them "antichrists" (meaning "against Christ") in 1st JOHN 2:18-19"Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time. 19) They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us." John said they were among them but not of them. In other words, they had learned the same things, attended the same services, preached the same messages to look like the real deal, but they eventually left to serve themselves and an anti-Christ agenda because their heart was never truly in it for the Lord and for truth. The great apostle Paul also writes about these false ministers and their eventual judgment in PHILIPPIANS 3:18-19"For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: 19) Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things."
Messengers and people of the Almighty God, don't let your vain ambition, pride, or ignorance fool you into thinking that just because you have a platform or get invited to the big stage of men that it is the Lord who is opening that door for you. Elijah was a man of the wilderness as was John the Baptist because the Lord did not want them to be tainted or compromised by the lure of the crowds and fame of what was popular with men. Elijah brought an entire nation to the wilderness to meet with God, and John brought all of Jerusalem into the wilderness to repent and be baptized, and see Jesus. The Lord will again call the people to revival before he returns and he will not only turn cities upside down but he will light up the overlooked and obscure people who have real power with God to shine as the true and brightest lights in the darkness of the world. Don't compromise your calling and integrity for fame or a name because it may cost you your eternal soul in hell away from God. Let your light shine for truth and don't be deceived by the darkness. ~ I.J. West
