NEW YEARS DAY SPECIAL EDITION
Thursday – January 1, 2015
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL, IN JESUS NAME!!! It is my prayer to the Father and I decree in the name of Jesus that all who partner with this ministry will prosper and be in health in 2015.
3 John 1:2 (KJV)
2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
This year, 2015, will be a challenging year so it is imperative that we all be wrapped in the Word of God. I invite you to live in and wrap yourself up with me in Psalm Ninety-One. Let us read it aloud together, claim it as our own and determine to read it in the first person frequently. In the first person the first verse would read something like this; I dwell in the secret place of the most High and I abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Psalm 91:1-16 (KJV)
1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
This Psalm concludes in verse sixteen with my Heavenly Father telling me that I can live a long and satisfying life. I receive a long and satisfying life in Jesus name and I forgive all. Next He tells me that He will show me His salvation. The number sixteen in Biblical Numerology means love. Love at its core is strict unwavering obedience to the Word of God; in this case the Father’s unwavering obedience to His own Word. Praise the Lord! The Hebrew word transliterated “yeshû̉ â” and translated salvation in English means saved, delivered, victory, prosperity, health, and welfare. We are no less saved, no less delivered, no less victorious, no less prosperous, no less healthy, and our welfare is not less then the Fathers. Do not be thrown off by the word “shew”. This is not a spiritual or intellectual showing it is a physical showing, kick the tires showing. I think we all need to let the reality of what the Father has given us here and now soak into our consciousness and become our reality by the words of our mouth.
Great judgment (justice) is at the door. The “coming storm” that the Lord has had me talk about many times before is very near. Great sin by this Covenant nation demands justice (judgment). Without repentance our sin our abominations will become full and overflow. Our great nation may be given to another for a season without a 180° change by the people. We, the body of Christ, must be on our face before God judging ourselves and repenting for ourselves and for this nation. Leaders that support abortion, homosexuality, and the demonizing of Israel have proliferated in this nation because we the people have elected them. Nothing happens in America or any other nation without the permission of the Christians in that nation thereby making the Christians part of the sin and destined to suffer in the judgment.
2 John 1:10-11 (KJV)
10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
We must repent and forgive all quickly. In the midst of repentance we must renew our mind confessing and understanding that what we, the Church, have allowed this great wickedness, these abominations in the sight of our Heavenly Father. President Abraham Lincoln in his second inaugural address declared that the costs and carnage of the Civil War were the direct result of the prior 250 years of slavery on American soil. What about over 50 million plus babies brutally murdered in the womb in America? Homosexuality is being celebrated and promoted in America. Egypt did not escape justice, Sodom and Gomorrah did not escape judgment so what makes us think we will escape judgment/justice? Do you think the Father is tickled with America’s treatment of Israel over the last six years? We have been pressuring Israel not to build settlements on their own land and we have been pressuring them to swap land for peace. There have been discussions in the White House to sanction Israel. At the same time we are negotiating and loosening sanctions with an instrument of Satan himself, Iran. Trading land for peace historically is a losing proposition; consider World War II, Israel’s Garza strip, and the situation with Russia and Ukraine.
Worse than all of this we have turned away from Jesus, both in the Church and as a nation. This is the only sin leading to spiritual death and hell. Other sins lead to or allow destruction in our personal lives and that of this nation. The Father is turning America over to the destroyer that our nation return to Him and be saved in the end. America will remember the source of our freedom and prosperity and we will as a nation cry out to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and He will hear us and He will heal us for His glory.
Revelation 2:5 (KJV)
5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
God has honored and had mercy on America during the last fifty plus years as we have spurned Him and poked our finger in His eye. America will once again be the hope of the world. The Church of Jesus Christ must repent and forgive.
Romans 11:29 (KJV)
29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
ADDENDUM – WORD OF THE LORD
As I was in prayer in the early morning hours on the 9th of December 2014 this is what the Lord spoke to my heart.
“I (the Lord) will not allow America to be utterly destroyed. You are my Covenant nation to show My goodness and that glory shall shine again like the sun. I am the Lord, it is spoken of My mouth and my Prophets are to proclaim this in the earth. I love you.”
By Pastor David R. Wood
