The Gloriously Dreadful Day

Thus says the Lord Almighty unto His church in America, Woe, woe unto you, oh My church. For you have wrought lewdness in the sight of many and have uncovered your nakedness before the nations. You have paraded your shame down the streets in pride and have cast off all restraint. Therefore, this is what I say to you, oh My church, Woe, woe unto you who seek the day of the Lord, for I the Lord Jesus Christ declare unto you that My day shall be to the shameful church a day of darkness and not light, a day of sorrow and not delight.

It is coming, the day is coming. It draws near, My great and dreadful day draws near. Who will hear? Who will hear? For I the Lord Almighty have determined a day, the likes of which you have not seen. In that day will I bring swift judgment upon all the ungodly in My church. The day is coming in which I will judge the heathen and the nations shall tremble at My Presence. But what will you do in that hour, My faithless Bride?

Will you hide yourself because of your nakedness that you have revealed before the world? Who has told you that you are unclothed? Will you not know? Will you not know? For I am coming for you, My Bride. Do not hide. Do not cover yourself with the world's apparel. But be clothed in My righteousness; be arrayed in My glorious attire.

You have removed from yourself My crown which I had placed upon your head, even the honor which I had bestowed upon you by My honor. In shamefulness, in iniquity, in covetousness have you taken from your head the honor that I had crowned you with to lay My honor at the feet of your idols. But as surely as I live, says the Lord Jesus Christ, I will not share My glory with another, neither will I give My honor to any other. You have counted yourself unworthy of My Glory; therefore shall My Presence depart from you in such a way as to cause you to know that I have indeed departed from you. You will seek to stir yourself as in days past and you will find that your strength has failed, your power has ceased with the removal of My Spirit from your midst.

Surely your turning of things upside down shall be known when I overturn all things before you. In that day will I command you to remove the crown, to lay down in dust, to array yourself in ashes. Be clothed, be clothed! With what will you clothe yourself, My church? For naked you came forth from the womb, and naked shall you return to the dust from which you were formed when I withdraw My breath from you. But I urge you, repent, and hold fast that which I have given to you; or else I will take that crown which belonged to you in patience and give it to another who is worthy, one who will declare My renown among the nations.

Can a man live when the breath of God is taken from his nostrils? Can a king rule without a crown? Can a bride be whole without her bridegroom? Can the church be the body of Christ without the Head? There is no hope to the church that hears and rejects My words, pronounces the King of kings, only a sure looking forward to of darkness, and gloominess, and doom.

You have surrounded yourself with prophets of the deceit of their own hearts, men who utter lies in My name, women who speak a vision of their own hearts. You hear what you want to hear, and compass yourself about with mouths uttering falsehood, meager men feasting on the flesh of My people, offering words of flattery for an offering of love. But you have forgotten that I hear what is spoken in My name, and I will bring swift retribution upon all who deceive My people with their lies, causing My people to stumble by their lightness. No lie will stand in My presence, declares the God of truth, and all falsehood will fall, failing in fulfillment, revealing those who have reviled Me with their vain revelations; and the sin of your mouths shall be your undoing. This I assure you, My church, every error and unclean word will be tried by My words, when the fire of My mouth passes upon it, and no false thing will remain, declares the Holy One of Israel.

Lift your eyes. Lift your eyes. That great and glorious day draws nigh. And I the Lord God Almighty, the God of Israel, will have a Bride. I will love her and cover her. I will redeem her from the slavery into which she has sold herself. And I will be her Husband and she will be My wife.

Howbeit, know for certain that terrible terror shall befall America, and My church will I hold to account for her part in the demise of this nation's place. Should you fear? Should you tremble? Would you fall once again before your Great King? For it is I Am, the LORD, mighty to save, and of infinite power, Who speaks to you, My church, in this late and desperate hour.

You have sought the world's approval and appealed to men after the manner of man. But you do not know that My Presence has departed from you, causing you great fear and shame and failure. Turn from your wicked ways, oh My church. Return and seek My face. Cast off your filthy rags that cannot conceal your sin. Do you know how long it has been since you last saw My Glory? For I am coming, declares the Lord Jesus Christ.

The day of your visitation is at hand, oh America. The day of your judgment stands, oh church of America, and I the LORD of hosts will send from above and gather My holy hosts for the day of My visitation.

I have shown you My ways and you have cast them away to walk in the ways of man. But I am jealous, declares the LORD, I am jealous for My holy name's sake. Therefore, have I declared that I will sanctify Myself in you in spite of you. Wherefore, return, repent, come again to My high and holy throne and I will receive you as My own, declares the jealous God.

Know also that assuredly Israel shall know her day, even My day upon her. For there is a time coming in which My nation of priests estranged and servants loosed from Me will encounter trouble on all sides. Destruction is determined upon the people of My choosing, a time of travail and the pains of birth, a time of trouble and terrible trembling. It is the time of Jacob's trouble that shall not be as any other time. For there has been no day like it, nor shall there ever be again. Out of this tremendous trouble shall Israel be saved and Jacob shall dwell safely within her borders of peace. But her security will not be purchased by political wrangling, nor by the blood of soldiers shed. Her safety shall not be bought with peace accords enacted within the halls of kings and presidents. For the world will rage against My people, Israel, and all nations will trouble themselves with her. She will wander among the nations, and find refuge only in Me. Having sought a place of rest in the world, she will find none. And Jersusalem will again be the place of My throne, a heavenly city adorned as a bride for her Bridegroom. I will dwell amongst My people, all of My sons and all of My daughters upon whom My Name is called, and I will be their God and they shall be My people. My outcasts will find hope in Me alone, and nowhere else will she find a home, and I will be the glory in the midst of her, and she shall be saved by Him Whose Name is the LORD our Righteousness. Thus shall be the day of My visitation upon Israel, thus shall be the final exodus, thus shall be the day of the revelation of My Son from heaven. Look up! Look up! For your redemption draws nigh. Come near! Come near! For I call to all who hear, and My salvation I bring near, announces the Lord God of Israel.
