On the morning of January 30th (shortly after 6am), I had what I can only describe as an out of body experience or vision, combined with a night vision. When it was over, I lay on my bed very still, and all of a sudden I heard two audible shofar (trumpet) blasts -- it was harmonious and beautiful. It sounded like an angel was singing at first, and then I recognized it to be a shofar. It sounded two times, and then it was over.
I just lay in bed and wondered what it could possibly mean. I did not understand the visions nor the trumpet blasts. So I immediately began to seek the Lord for understanding on what He showed me. The following week or so, I began to travail again in my spirit as I prayed. The travail became more intense and more painful.
He spoke to me concerning the travail in my prayers. He told me that this anguish, sorrow, despair, and grief that He was allowing me to fully experience is what His people (Christians about to receive His judgments) will experience, and there will be wailing and lamenting throughout the entire land.
He explained that the travail was also about His heart. He allowed me to have a tiny sampling of the pain in His heart for what He is about to do in this land. This was the worst pain I experienced. I will be honest with you in that when I was in travail, on several occasions, the pain was so grievous, that I cried out to my Lord to "let me die because I cannot take this." I did not know such pain could be felt in the human body. And that was just a small sampling of His heart's pain because of the many lost who will be separated from Him for eternity.Those were the messages I received about the travailing. Then, after several weeks, He showed me the meaning of the audible trumpets He caused me to hear and how they tie in to the travail. This is what He showed me:
Blow the trumpet in the land; cry aloud and say, 'Assemble yourselves, and let us go into the fortified cities. Lift up a standard in Zion! Seek refuge, do not stand still, For I am bringing evil from the north, and great destruction. A lion has gone up from his thicket, and a destroyer of nations has set out; He has gone out from his place to make your land a waste. Your cities will be ruins without inhabitant. For this, put on sackloth, lament and wail; for the fierce anger of the Lord has not turned back from us...Like watchmen of a field they are against her round about, because she has rebelled against Me,' declares the Lord. 'Your ways and your deeds have brought these things to you. This is your evil. How bitter! How it has touched your heart." My soul, my soul! I am in anguish! Oh my heart! My heart is pounding in me; I cannot be silent, Because you have heard, O my soul, the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war. Disaster on disaster is proclaimed, for the whole land is devastated." -- Jer 4:5-8, 17-20
The trumpets I heard are the trumpets Jeremiah heard. The travail I have been experiencing, is the travail Jeremiah felt after he heard the trumpets. This is the complete message the Lord gave me. He confirmed this message on Monday, February 23rd using three brothers in the Body. This judgment the Lord is declaring will not come gradually, but SUDDENLY and SWIFTLY. It is nigh upon us now. (He also gave me the understanding about the visions He showed me, but they are specifically for me, so I will not share them.)
After He gave me the full understanding, I began to pray and seek Him on what specifically He would have me to do now. He began leading me to prepare my family by simply buying them food, water, camping supplies, etc, without delay!
Please feel free to pass this Word along to other believers who have ears to hear.
