Psa 149:4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

The meek. Not the arrogant, the proud scoffers who know it all. He will beautify the MEEK with salvation. The proud churchmen will be rejected as he rejected the Phariasees long ago. They had it all figured out. It was incomprehensible that anything good could come out of Nazareth. It did not fit their theology, nor did the birth of Jesus as it turned out fit their theology. Therefore they missed it, just like the proud are missing it today. Scoff on. Scoff on. But, like the man who said to Elisha, "If God opens up windows in heaven then it might be so." Like that scoffer, many will see it but it will be too late for them. The man died beneath the trampling feet of the crowd, seeing but unable to partake.

The MEEK are those who are pliable, flexible, yielded in the hands of God and to His word.

Psa 149:5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

The saints have every reason to be joyful. Not a hair shall fall from their head to be destroyed during the times of great indignation. Many promises of God's keeping power is extended to them.


Psa 149:6 [Let] the high [praises] of God [be] in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand;

The weapons of their warfare are not carnal but are mighty through God.

Psa 149:7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, [and] punishments upon the people;

Judgment wrought upon the earth will be through the saints of God, His ministers, His messengers of fire. His fire starters. His kindlers. His flames in the earth.


Psa 149:8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

The princes, the powers and potentates will not have the liberty to function in the presence of these great men in the earth in that day.


Psa 149:9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.

Judgment is given to the saints. It is their honour.

Dan 7:22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most High; and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom.

I think over all the US is doing pretty well as a Christian nation. The world over all is not getting worse and worse, and I can't think of a better time period that I'd rather be alive in than 2007... and I'm looking forward to 2008.
I am very thankful I am an American in the great state of Texas.

God bless us Americans, Revalationist.

I thought to go to Tampa this year but decided against it. There is no longer any hope. Lusting for the harlots wine, they will party together each with their own party not realizing that their unholy, unsanctified partying is just about over and there will soon be no more party. In their madness, they will gorge themselves with yet one more resolution, yet one more cup of insanity hastening the judgments of a holy but furious God.

Sleep on my bretheren, but it does look like you could have tarried with Him in prayer for one hour. It would have appeared that communion of saints would have been a better choice than yet another scarlet ride on the beast out of the sea.
Please don't misunderstand me - but I need some clarification. What does Tampa have to do with the prophetic post you started this thread with?

Are you saying the UPC is in charge of Americas future?

As a rule, as the church goes, so goes the nation.

I take it you believe the UPC represents a majority of the church.

While I don't share that view, I do agree to the point of the church effecting how God deals with a nation - or perhaps mankind in general. I am not so sure that the UPC voting in/out or against anything will incite any immediate wrath or delight of God.

I suspect that God is not so concerned with out little pettiness, as he is of the spirits involved. The pettiness is only symptomatic...just one of many symptoms.

btw, I don't remember mentioning the word "immediate." I did mention the word "near" but that in relation to the "change" that I spoke of from I Cor. 15.

Though here, yet they will not be seen. You will not see them any more except they make themselves visible. They will be in another dimension, doing God's bidding in the earth. Soon, they will be gone, but here.

There will not be a revival as we have known them in American. American is weighed in the balance and have been found wanting. She has turned her back on God, having forgotten his love, mercy and divine birth and protection. She must now pass under the rod of judgment. America is weak, our enemies know it. Our enemies are no longer at the gate only, they are now among us. They are afar too.

There is a great thick and very black cloud that has fallen upon our nation. No light is breaking through. The only light that you have is the light that you have been able to store by the oil in your little vessell, waiting out the long night to pass.

What can we do meanwhile? We can remember the whole duty of man which is to fear God and keep His commandments. We must put on Christ and become Christ like, doing good, healing the sick, binding up the wounded, pouring in the oil and wine among all who has been sticken by the theif. We must teach others to do the same and to become lovers of the good, followers of Christ.
This part here makes it sound like this will happen very soon. What is soon? When will this happen?

Yeah... let me try that again...

I think over all the US is doing pretty well as a Christian nation. The world over all is not getting worse and worse, and I can't think of a better time period that I'd rather be alive in than 2007, AND LIVING IN TEXAS... and I'm looking forward to 2008.

That's better isn't it? : )
