November 21st 2001
At the start of a prayer meeting I was attending, the power of
God began to fall in an unusual way. It began whilst we were
worshipping the Lord at the beginning of the meeting and
literally came out of the blue! I was conscious of uttering
Scriptures that all came directly from the book of Revelations,
which was rather unusual as I hadn‘t spent a lot of study
there.. As the power of God increased, I began to have an open
vision of Heaven. My first awareness was that of life! Everything
in Heaven literally pulsated with this life. The very air was
filled with it. After this, I was aware of angelic beings flying
around in the sky above the throne of Almighty God someway off in
the distance. From where I was, He looked like a shimmering mass
of pure life or energy! From His being radiated this very life
that Heaven was filled with and everything owed its existence
to..
My focus was drawn to a large angelic being, who was
approaching from my right hand side. He was some 10-12 feet tall.
He was very beautiful without being feminine and had large white
wings folded behind him. He wore a pure white robe and had a
golden cord around his waist. As he approached me, the power of
God increased and he began to speak with me concerning things
that were shortly to come upon the Earth.
I have never preached doom or gloom in my life but what I
heard and saw shocked me!
The angel began.. "1999 saw the worst floods and
earthquakes, the biggest storms and natural calamities come upon
the earth. The earth is groaning under the weight of sin upon
her" He explained the Scripture in Romans 8 verse 21.. The
whole creation groans and travails in pain... "He said the
earth was created in righteousness and holiness by God but the
weight of sin was causing it to literally break apart under the
strain of it!"(sin in the Bible is described as being
'heavy' and a 'burden')
He went on to say "This is nothing compared to what is
coming. The world has hope that the new millennium will bring
peace to the earth" (I immediately understood this to mean a
new beginning, a new hope that things would get better, so to
speak) "It shall not be so" he said "for the Word
of God says, There is no peace says the Lord to the wicked!"
They (the world) will have to find new categories for the scale
of calamities that are about to unleash themselves on
mankind" I understood this as reference to the 1 to 5 scale
that they categorise cyclones with and the 1 –10 Richter
scale. "He said the woes will become so great that human
resources will not be able to cope with them!"
It was then I saw the earthquake that shook me. I saw a huge
city, demolished, flattened by the force of this quake. I
immediately knew the country but not what city it was and I knew
instinctively that it contained millions of people. I saw mankind
stand aghast at it. It was so devastating that no-one knew where
to start first. I nearly wept as I surveyed the scene. There was
devastation for miles and miles, As far as the eye could see,
just mountains of rubble! The power of God became so strong, that
my body began to bend backwards without falling over! My feet
were firmly planted on the floor, with my body bent backwards. He
took a step closer and the power increased even more, bending my
body even further backwards. I became aware of the scripture,
"I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God" (Luke
1:19) I was going to ask a question and he answered before I
spoke! I was about to ask "Is this the tribulation of the
Book of Revelations?" I knew immediately that it was not! I
then saw the Body of Christ scurrying amongst the rubble like
ants before a storm over the wreckage of this disaster. Have you
noticed how ants get real busy just before a storm comes,
grabbing food and supplies to take back to their nests? I saw the
Body of Christ doing the same thing, only they were grabbing
people! Literally pulling them out of the fire! They were not
able to get many people out physically as many were hurt and
dying, rather their purpose was to get people into eternal life.
I saw them telling people in the rubble about Jesus and His
saving grace. The decimation was so great, there was little they
could do for them in the natural but there was something that
they could do to stop them going into an eternity without
Christ!
After this scene passed, I became aware of the end time
harvest. It was much like a natural harvest where the farmer
plants the seed, waters it, keeps out the weeds and then waits
for the fruit of it. Nothing much seems to happen for a while,
then suddenly the latter rains come, the crop turns, (ripens) and
the farmer works night and day getting the crop in to his barns
before any bad weather spoils it! Jesus talked a lot about wheat!
All that is left after the crop is taken in is the stubble! Jesus
talked about the stubble too!
Even as I write this, the Spirit of Prophecy comes upon me.
"Prepare yourselves" says the Lord, "for the
fields are truly white and ready to harvest. Pray to the Lord of
the Harvest to send labourers into His harvest, for the time is
short"
I saw the coming move of God as a mighty tidal wave that would
rise suddenly out of the ocean and sweep across the land. A
skilled surfer watches the waves, waiting for the right one. Just
before it gets to him, he paddles with all his might as it
catches up with him. He then rises up and enjoys the power of the
wave to carry him. "So shall it be in the last moments, as
this age of grace draws to a close" says the Lord.
"Prepare yourselves, make yourselves ready, so that you can
be a vessel unto honour, chosen of God to do His will.
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision" says the
Lord. "Who will go for Me? For My will is that all mankind
be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. I, Jesus, have
commanded it! Go ye into all the world and proclaim the gospel. I
am the Lord Who changes not!"
I saw the body of Christ labouring night and day to get the
precious fruit of the earth into the kingdom before the end came!
It was in the midst of these calamities that they were labouring.
"Where sin abounds, how much more does grace abound?"
Terrible things were happening throughout the world, yet
God’s grace was abounding, enabling us to do as we have
never done before. I saw the time come when we would need little
or no sleep, because there was so much to do and so many people
to reach before the door was shut. The Scripture came to mind in
Romans 8 verse 28 .. the same Spirit Who raised Christ from the
dead shall quicken, give life to your mortal body.. (That’s
the one we are in now) Small pockets of revival are already
breaking out upon the earth.
I am reminded of the last recorded words from the Lord "Lo.
I come quickly and My reward is with Me to give to every man
according to his works" Revelations 22. Let’s get
working!
*Within 2 months of this visitation, Australia experienced its
most powerful cyclone in history, (recorded wind speeds of over
300k's an hour!) France had its worst storms in living memory
and Venezuela had its biggest floods ever. Recently the world has
just experienced a massive earthquake (over 9:2 on the Richter
scale!) that caused the devastating Asian Tsunami. New Orleans
has just experienced a "once in a 100 year" storm. Even
now, Pakistan has just been quoted as having "the biggest
earthquake in living memory" killing over 50,000 people!
Those people possibly never got to hear about Jesus and his
saving grace..
Have you noticed how many 'end time' movies and shows
have been coming out in recent years? We had the meteor ones..
"Deep Impact" and "Armageddon!" and then
"The Day after Tomorrow" - Now we have the Telemovie
entitled "10:5" That's above the known scale! I
asked the Lord about it and He replied, "The world is
prophesying its own doom!" I have not published this that
your heart should be troubled, as Jesus said but rather to warn
you as to the sign of the times we live in and what will
shortly come to pass.
The Visitation is included in the Book, The Oracles of God,
which represents over 24 years of "Revelations from the Word
of God and Conversations with our Lord Jesus Christ"
In December 2005, the Lord spoke to me and said, "Tell My
people that I am coming sooner than they think!"
