A TIME OF NATIONAL DISRUPTION
Dear friends,
In Feb. of 2015 I was ministering in Edenton, NC and was in a prayer meeting prior to a service. God spoke to me. He said that he could give America “destruction” right then but that He was instead going to give America “disruption.” This would give the country more time to repent. He didn’t say just what the disruption would look like or where it would come from. My sense was that it would be national and would disrupt just about everything. However, since 2015, I’ve only seen regional disruption, such as the California wild-fires, or massive flooding in Houston, TX. The Corona Virus from China—COVID-19, has already disrupted the Stock Market and the supply chain from China. A school near Portland OR has been closed after a teacher was diagnosed with the virus, source of exposure unknown. My sense is that THIS is the national disruption I was warned about in 2015.
After telling me that He was going to send DISRUPTION God told me, “Don’t give ME disruption.” Then Bible verses came rapid fire. Rev. 22:11 NIV “Let the one who does right continue to do right; and let the holy person continue to be holy.” Also 1 Thes. 5:15-18 ESV Always seek to do good to one another and to everyone. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” I sensed that many Christians have disruption in their prayers and rejoicing and thanksgiving—sometimes long breaks of disruption. Later I found Amos 5:24 NIV “But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream.”
If we will serve God without disruption we will qualify for the fulfillment of God’s promise in 2 Chron. 16:9 ESV, “For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is blameless toward him.”
That same year God gave me a sermon titled, PRAY FOR THOSE IN AUTHORITY, OR ELSE! Our government and all who are in charge of disease prevention and treatment—WOW. They need prayer! Paul wrote, “I urge then, first of all, that petitions prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness this is good, and pleases God our Savior,” (2 Tim. 2:1-3 NIV). Politically, the fad is to judge and slander political opponents, saying as many bad things about them as possible. But that actually brings judgment upon those who speak such mean, evil and untrue things. So who will pray if we don’t? A disaster becomes a catastrophe when governments make bad mistakes. Governments make bad mistakes when they don’t have prayer backing. Judgments and disruption can be modified or lessened because of repentance and prayer.
Finally, there is no vaccine, yet. I read that a Jewish biotech company will have a vaccine in just 90 days. They were already working on corona viruses in birds and only had to make minor adjustments to have the vaccine work on COVID-19. Right now—the only thing I can physically recommend is a nano-silver solution. Nano silver is hundreds of times more effective than colloidal or ionic silver products. The nano-silver actually robs electrons from viruses causing them to disintegrate.
I signed our ministry up to be an affiliate with www.silverbiotics.com. This is the company that invented nano-silver. Anything else might be less effective. On the checkout page is a place for a COUPON or CODE. Enter GOSPELNET25 and you’ll get a 25% discount. Our ministry will get 10% of your order. We’ll use those funds to buy copies of 21 WAYS TO FORGIVE for chaplains in America’s prison system. A couple of days ago a chaplain from a large prison in Illinois emailed to say he loved the book and wanted as many as I could send. Two thousand men are in that prison, and all are in for long sentences or life. He has no budget for Christian literature. If a sponsor sends 25 books we discount them to $4 each. ($100 plus $8.50 for shipping). But if a sponsor can send a box of 80 we discount them to just $3 per book. Shipping on that heavy of a box is $19, so $259 gets 80 books to a chaplain. This helps me make a living. I often speak in small churches and the offerings aren’t enough to live on. Books, even discounted, give me a royalty. Call me at 541-729-5015 if you’d like to sponsor 25 books or 80 books. I’d run your credit card through SQUARE and destroy the record.
