Genesis 49:9
"Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my
son, thou art gone up the
mountain: he stooped down, he crouched as a lion,
and as an old lion;,
who shall rouse him up?"
Numbers 23:24
"Behold the people shall rise up as a great lion and lift up himself as a
young lion: he shall not lie down until he eat the prey, and drink the blood
of
the slain."
Psalms 104:21-22
"The young lions roar
after their prey, and seek their meat from God. The
sun riseth, they gather
themsleves together, and lay them down in their dens'
Isaiah
5:29
"None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall
slumber or sleep;
neither shall the girdle of their lions be loosed, nor the
latchet of their
shoes be broken. Whoses arrows are sharp. and all their
bows bent, their horses
hoofs be counted like flint, and their wheels like a
whirlwind: their roaring
shall be like young lions; yea, they shall roar,
and lay hold of the prey, and
carry it away safe, and none shall deliver
it."
The Lord is arising in this hour in a people He calls His
own. Young lions
in the midst of the forrest! He is arising to make amends
for the wrongs done to
His people and to settle accounts.. It is certain
that the days are evil. We are
living out the Scriptures daily and the news
that we hear is rapidly announcing
a precursor of the soon turn of events
that will usher in the finality of all
things. But know the Lord is in total
and complete control of all that befalls
His people. Nothing escapes His
eye. He never slumbers and is at perfect rest in
His final purposes for all
men, whether they be good or evil. The Scriptures
tell the tale. (See Eccl.
12:13-14)
The things we see that are before our eyes and with
discernment and with
keen spiritual vision show us the hour is indeed late
for man. We can see and
ear of the signs that were predicted long ago and
written for our learning,
warnings and stern admonition that are written in
the Scriptures.
Do not allow the enemy to distract us into another
direction other then the
Lord's ways that are away from the path that is
narrow that leads to life.. The
Lord is calling those to active duty and it
is a time of great preparation for
service. It is too late to be passive and
caught up into the cares and the
things of the world that are only temporal.
Every joint supplies and we need
each other. The world events that are
leading up to the fulfillment of Bible
prophecy are moving at a quickened
pace that is astounding...However we must
remember and think on these
things, that the Lord is also moving mightily as
well, and to show us that
we are in the final days spoken so often in the
Epistles as perilous times.
These are exciting days for the true body of
Christ...! Also spoken of in
the Old Testament through the Lord's prophets, we
find many things pointing
to these final days in which we live...
There are many who
continue to twist the word of God to their own
destruction and these shall
be held responsible for leading a great number of
the Lord's people into the
wrong path... Some to a path of ruin. Woe unto them
for their time of
judgment is nearing. (See Isaiah 9:13-16).
The Lord says, that
this is a season of the breaking forth of children.
Genuine seed that have
His heart and mind... There is a strong wind from the
Lord coming forth from
the wilderness. The Lord is about to spoil the treasure
of all pleasant
vessels. We are advancing very rapidly into the fullness of the
Day of the
Lord. Unusual weather patterns and many strange things that are
different
from the normal. A day of darkness and gloominess is covering the land
where
men walk as blind men...(See Zephaniah 1:14-18).
No longer will
the Lord excuse the sin of many that flaunt and disregard the
Lord's
holiness and kindness and His words of correction. (See Proverbs
2:21-32).
The day is declaring itself with great signs in the heavens and on the
earth
with men's hearts failing them. Troubled souls, because of the perplexity
that exists in the world of the turmoil of nations and rumors of wars. Soon
and
very soon the evidence of these signs shall be seen by many who in the
past have
not been willing to acknowledge the prophetic signs of the soon
coming of the
Lord.
The heavens are declaring His glory! There
is a change taking place in the
world and in the hearts of His own ones...An
anticipation is arising for these
who love Him with the whole heart. His are
aware of these changes...They sleep
not as do others. They the Bible calls
them are the children of the day and not
of the night.
Stay
alert and do not turn aside from the Lord's clear truth. His word is
truth
and if you will continue in the Holy Scriptures you will not be moved or
become void of the Lord's plans and purposes. Your vision will be clear and
bright before you and you will not stumble in the darkness that comes to
engulf
many.. Seek Him continually as your vital source of life and He will
be found of
you...(Jeremiah 29:11).
Therefore turn thou unto
thy God: keep mercy and judgment and wait on God
continually. Pray that you
be found worthy to escape the things that are coming
upon the world of
ungodliness. This is the day and the season we have waited for
my beloved
brothers and sisters...A day of the turning of circumstances for good
and
not evil for those who have stood in the heat of the battle. Be ready to
receive and do not forget to thank our God for all He has so graciously
provided
for us. Watch carefully for what is about to take place in the next
few months.
A turning of events will come "suddenly" and many will not be
prepared for them.
The Lord's own ones will be stedfast, fixed and secure in
His faithfulness. The
Lord is with those who honor Him and His word and no
good thing will He withhold
from them that walk uprightly. He is our only
refuge and the lifter of our head!
Take courage and know that our strength
comes from the Lord alone, and He will
see us through every difficult
circumstance. Do not forget the battle is in the
mind and for the mind and
you must be aware of the enemies devices, always
putting on the whole armour
of God that you will be able to stand. This is....
the evil day! Faith is
the key to trusting Him. Obedience is the way to God and
He is gathering His
own onto Himself in this hour. Unto him shall the obedience
of the people
be.
The Way of Truth is Costly The Lion Hath Roared! Apr 13,

The Way of Truth is Costly
By Rosemary LaVigne
The Lion
Hath Roared
STANDING ALONE
More and more there are a
small people being gathered unto Him, a people
that are unnoticed in the
eyes of men that are scattered throughout the world
from every nation. These
are a people that are called of God to a place of total
abandonment and
utter dependence upon the Holy One of Israel. These of His
"little flock,"
Jesus called them are set a part from the ways of the world and
are nestled
secure fully enwrapped in His holy protection safe under his wings.
[Psalm
91] Safe in Him and protected because they have chosen to take the Most
High
as their refuge and not man. These people are sprinkled throughout the
nations and called out from the world's ways and its soulish enticements and
pleasures that are flooding the market places and luring, O' so many into
the
hellish trap of the enemy. These soulish enticements that appeal to the
carnal
nature of man without Christ are being flaunted over television and
pasted in
front of the unsuspecting and young of our generation even at the
check out
counters in the markets.
These allurements of the enemy
of our soul have been crushed with a fatal
blow, causing these who truly
desire to bring honor to their Father in heaven to
stand alone, if need be.
Standing alone and at a distance from what is marketed
and merchandised in
the fields of religion for a price. But how the Father loves
and is jealous
over these little ones of his flock who has made the choice to
follow his
Son Jesus Christ fully. Loving not the world nor the things of the
world,
knowing that if we do so, the love of the Father is not in us.
Standing a lone requires total obedience knowing the fear of the Lord is to
hate evil. This word hate is a pretty strong word and it means just
that.
It has been written the way of truth is a costly way. Few
unfortunately are
willing by their choice to pay the price of total and
complete abandonment to
what carnal believers in the faith willfully still
partake of. Partaking in
worldly pursuits to gain more of the material and
lay up their treasures upon
earthly things here, which is only temporal
rather than in heaven where nothing
rusts and turns old. Those who continue
to do such things and to ignore the
signs of the end of an age will find in
the end that it will cost them much in
their eternal placement in the
kingdom of God. Not all as the Scriptures declare
will become over comers
ruling with the Son of God in His Father's kingdom upon
this renewed earth.
Though many teach and blanket the placing of the over comers
on all
Christians this can not be. For not all believers will pay the same price
to
attain this placing of over comers, ruling and reigning with Christ in his
Father's throne. Many are still in this present age we are living in and the
close of time are what the Apostle Paul calls carnal or fleshly Christians.
Yes,
again we will write the way of truth is costly.
The World
Scene
Falling Short of the Nature of The Son who is the Express Image of
Father
As we look upon the world scene we can see an increase in
witchcraft and all
manner of filth infiltrating almost everywhere one goes
anymore. There is no
escaping it, it seems. The enemy's filth is
infiltrating almost every facet of
life and we know that things can not and
will not continue this way much longer
without an intervention of our Father
to amend the wrongs done to his people.
Justice will prevail, but we must
keep in mind the Lord of heaven our Mighty
Father and Yahweh God is long-
suffering that all come to repentance. We must
take into consideration when
these words were penned and preserved for us about
the long suffering of the
Father and is written in Peter's epistle that all come
to repentance, we
must think about and ponder these words for a moment that he
is speaking of
HIS people as well. All have sinned and come short of the glory
of God. The
glory of God the Father is his nature. The Scripture in 2 Chronicles
7:14
states…If MY PEOPLE, which are called BY MY NAME shall humble themselves
and
pray and seek my face, and turn from THEIR WICKED WAYS, I will hear from
heaven and forgive their sins and heal their land." The Father is not
speaking
to the people in the world that do not profess to know him nor is
he speaking to
America or any other ungodly nation, he is speaking to HIS
PEOPLE those of us
who have sinned and come short of his glory, which is his
nature. We must face
the reality that truth is costly. It will either make
us angry or it will change
us into new creatures that love and honor Him and
are willing to be changed into
his image. Our life must become a reflection
of Him who bought us with so great
a price on that cross which is a cursed
thing.
From my own personal observation, the Lord has shown me that even
many and I
say many who profess to be part of the Father's family are
ignoring the words of
the Holy One to come out of all pagan influence. Any
one with a sincere heart
can say no. But why do we halt between two opinions
with one foot in these
abominations that brings an offense to the Lord and
still we do them and partake
of them, as if God will turn his face towards
us still with favor if we do them?
I am only saying what needs to be said.
Easter bunnies and eggs are from pagan
origin and why do we still partake of
the things that are an offense to God?
Many Christians today here in the
western world are partaking in pagan
influences and seeing no harm done as
to their witness to the holiness and
purity of a walk separate from the
unclean things that put a reproach on the
pure truth and the sound doctrines
of Christ and the early Apostles. We all as
followers of Jesus Christ those
of us that are born from above must become
knowledgeable and not ignorant of
the devices of the enemy. The enemy comes many
times through his angels of
light perverting the truth into a lie to ensnare
believers in his great dark
net of deception. The pagan holidays should be
recognized for what they are,
an affront to our Father and His Son Jesus Christ.
We are now living out the
final days of the Book, days that are very
dangerous. We must not only read
the truth out of the Holy Scriptures, but we
must know Him the giver of the
truth. We each one of us must know the truth and
to hide it away in our
hearts is what I believe are a great privilege and
treasure to be had by
all.
Regardless how you as a believer in Christ are misunderstood by those
who
choose to walk the broad way that leads to destruction; remember the
words of
the Bible. Jesus, said, "If they hated me they will also hate
you..." It was The
religious of Jesus day that gave him the most trouble; do
we think it will be
any different in these final days? I don't think so.
Again this word hated is a
strong word.
The narrow way the leads to life
requires obedience to God the Father first
and foremost and all else next.
Obedience to the ways of God and a yielded life
of holiness, becoming a true
and a faithful witness is the midst of a crooked
and perverse generation as
lights that shine brightly and to make a difference
in this world of
darkness. Reflecting the Son as he chooses and His will be done
in our earth
as it is in heaven! Arising now are the many sons that are coming
unto
glory!
We dear ones must keep ourselves not only in the love of God the
Father, but
making ourselves by our own will to do or not to do pure from
all that would
defile his temple in men and women of the true faith that was
once delivered
unto the saints.
A Word from the Lord
April 14,
2003
We dear ones are rapidly racing toward a great change and further up
settings in the land in the world's systems of carnal thinking and
reasoning's.
But the Lord would say to his people. Remember you are in the
world, but not of
it. Have I not said, I will supply your need and am I not
your provision and
source of total supply. Can I not make a way where there
is no way? I know mine
and am searching out those whose heart is perfect
towards Me, and those whose
heart is set on My ways and eternal holy
purposes. Think it not strange that ye
be mistreated and misunderstood. Was
not My Son mistreated even by the religious
of his day and rejected by his
own that knew him not when he came? Why do you
think it will be any
different now? My Son came not to bring peace, but a sword
and division.
There will and must be heresies among you and I am allowing them
to separate
those who know my voice from those who are strangers and not of kin
to me
and my little flock. Stand for truth and righteousness mine will be
manifested and made known in my appointed time as genuine seed sons prepared
unto vessels of mercy for my glory to be seen by men. The true and genuine
wheat
shall be put into my barn for safe keeping, while the tares will be
burned in
the fires of my righteous judgments.
His Coming Storm!
Job 63:32-33 Amp/v.
As the storm sent by me rages with turbulence and whirlwind
force those who
know me intimately shall be protected and will walk in peace
that I give them.
For this peace comes through trials and the chastening of
sons and from
understanding maturity in my ways.
Fret not at what you
see and hear of wars and more rumors of wars,
pestilences and a quickened
actively in earthquakes and unusual strange
sightings in the skies. Remember
as well that the love of many will wax cold and
men in their beastly nature
will have no regard for life as I have made it... I
have told you these
things before hand and have spoken for you to take heed that
no man deceive
you. Many and not few come in my name saying, I am Christ, but
believe them
not. There is a great falling away of the faith and men will become
more
cruel and resentful in and wicked in their ways as the days progress.
I the
Lord hear the cry of my people and will not disappoint them. Hold fast
to my
faithfulness to you. I will not disappoint you nor make you ashamed of
your
stand for the truth. As you honor me, I shall honor you.
The Father
has an End in View
The Father from the very beginning of time has always had
His end in view, a
final goal to be accomplished in a people through His Son
Jesus Christ. His
purpose in the beginning when Israel was established
through Abraham was that
his original people Israel become that light to the
nations of the world, but
the kingdom was taken from them and given to a
nation that would bring forth the
fruit of the nature of His Son. This "new"
nation the Apostle Paul writes of is
made of twain, both Jew and Gentile
believers in the Messiah Yahuah Jesus Christ
the Lord. The one "new" man
that is in Christ Jesus the Messiah and are under
His blood the perfect Lamb
of God.
The Father's ultimate purpose is not in any forms or rituals or
traditions
of men perfected through any order of man's religion no matter
what title it
takes on as of Him or not of Him. We have had religion of
every sort under the
titles of man and organizations and to no avail or
genuine or little profit. The
Father has always had a people though only a
called out remnant in every
generation they have been called His. These are
composed of a living organism
not a building or organization of men. For it
is the Father a lone that knows
them that are his and has set a part the
godly for himself. Psalm 4:3; 2 Timothy
2:19-21. The Father has always had a
people whether it is one or a few who meant
business with God. There are
examples seen throughout Biblical history such as
Adam, Able, Noah, Moses,
Jael, Deborah, Joseph, King David, Gideon, Simeon and
Anna the final witness
to the first coming of the Christ child. They all were
part of the remnant
that were of the called out ones throughout the generations
right up to this
last generation we are now living in. The Father speaks of them
like this.
Malachi 3:16-27
"Then they that feared the Lord spake often
one to another; and a book of
remembrance was written of before him for them
that feared the Lord; and that
thought upon his name. Vs 17 And they shall
be mine saith the Lord of hosts, in
THAT DAY when I make up my jewels; and I
will spare them; as a man spareth his
own son that serveth him."
So let
us not faint and be weary in well doing for the race is won by those
who run
it lawfully. Our course is already mapped out for us. It is our job to
walk
in it…For he is there is led us into all truth, that is if we love it above
all else.
The mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ is
waiting for
the willing and obedient. It is ours but is taken with a costly
price if we
choose to love the truth and stand when all turn with the
majority. The road to
life is narrow through Many trials trouble and
rejections for those who love Him
no price is too high to pay. Philippians
3:13-14. Their names will also be
included with the Lord's remnant of this
final age of grace. Hebrews 12:1
"Wherefore, seeing we also are compassed
about with so great a cloud of
witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and
the sins that which doth so easily
beset us, and let us run with patience
the race that is set before us."
The principle has always proven true. God
is after a people who desire Him
fully. A people it matters not their race,
origin, color or sex. He is ever
seeking men, women and children who will
meet Him on His terms and to fulfill
His heart's desire to have a holy
remnant people, prepared and chosen by fire
and afflictions. A people for
His name. The nature of their King to reflect his
glory to the nations of
the world! A people to manifest the nature of His Son
Jesus Christ to a very
dark world. This is His perfect will and that is certain.
May we be that
people I pray.
