I was awakened early in the morning on February 27, 2012 with a clear message from the Lord for His people. It is a message of correction that carries a warning for the near future. It is especially directed at the church in America but is certainly applicable to believers throughout the world.

Awaken from your stupor my bond servants, for the time is short and the Day draws near when I will separate the sheep from the goats and the wheat from the tares. The world is quickly descending into the chaos and rebellion of the last days. You are weak and distracted by the spirit of the age and you are being caught up in the winds of religious diversion that keep you from coming fully to Me and reaping the holiness that only My presence can bring. The world laughs at you, not because you serve Me, but because you claim to serve Me while lacking the radiance of My glory, the power of My presence, the clarity of My word and the boldness of My Spirit.
In recent years I have called you out of the camp of religion to bear the reproach that I bore to a place where there are no permanent structures of man’s fleshly ways. I have called you out of Babylon, where men build elaborate structures for their own glory into a simple way that brings Me glory and executes My will in the earth. You allowed Me to mark you for service to Me, to brand you for My purpose.
But you cower in fear without the courage to go forth and overcome. You languish in defeat and retreat like cowards in the battlefield. Like the people of Israel facing Goliath you shrink back and look for a safe place where you can build your own shelters while My house lies in waste. Without vision you are scattered across the battlefield and scurry like ants before a thunderstorm. Because you do not see with My eyes of faith you perceive the giant as one who cannot be defeated and so you hide in your places of security while you wait for a brave young warrior to risk His life.
The brave young warriors are coming and they will not fear, for they will know their God and stand in the quiet security of His shadow and step out on the battlefield with confidence because they trust not in the arm of the flesh but in the strength of their God. They will embarrass you in your hiding places by going forth in My strength and caring not for the bigness of their fleshly armor but trusting in the weapons I will put into their hands as they journey forth. You, on the other hand, want to see victory before you step out on the battlefield. You want to gather at the drawing table of your divisive doctrinal disputes while turning a deaf ear to your Commander in Chief, who calls you into boot camp and war.
I beckon you all but I know that only a remnant will respond to My voice. It has always been so—the few carry the burden for the many while the many peek over their walls too afraid to come forth. I have not given you a spirit of cowardice and fear but one of power and of love and of a disciplined mind. But you reject My gift and choose to cling to the comfort of your doctrines and the safety of your man made enclosures. You will not be useful to Me for My purpose as long as you choose safety over victory behind the walls of religion.
You break rank with one another over unessential details. You strain at a gnat and swallow a camel. Our adversary sends the gnats knowing he can keep you distracted from the crucial matters of the real battle. You swat at gnats while his artillery destroys your comrades in battle. My army scurries around like children in a playground rather than warriors on the battlefield. You shoot your wounded, or worse yet, you wound your fellow soldiers because your ears hear distractions instead of the instructions of your God. You use My word to indict of your brother instead of deeming him forgiven because of My blood. Instead of bandaging his wound you pour the salt of judgment into it so as to add to the enemy’s affliction.
Now hear the strategy for the coming season of battle that you may correct the problems I have identified. I call you to leave the sophisticated, convoluted strategies of religion and come to My simple place of nourishment, rest, and planning. Break through the walls of religion and gather at the cross of my victory. There you will join others who have come in their desperation to the same place. Love Me with all of your heart and mind, and love them with the love I bestow.
Hold each other accountable to My word and My truth but do not use truth to divide. Come to the pillar and foundation of truth where My true followers are not afraid to trust My Spirit to lead them into unadulterated truth. My life flows through a body not into individual heroes. I build brick upon brick and cannot use those that will not be positioned next to others. Let the mortar of my love bind you together in the house I am building. Stop building your selfish little shacks and present yourselves as living stones for My living purpose. I have commanded Zion as the place of My blessing so stop trying to build in a foreign land. Be gathered together as My church and cease your bickering.
Help each other prove all things so you can hold fast to what is good. Test the spirits together without dissension that you may walk along together seeking my will and not be deceived by the spirit of the age. Search the scriptures together and pray with one another for the oneness of My Spirit, for by this you will show the world that the Father sent the Son. Be humble, gentle and long suffering, persevering with one another in love. Only in this way can I build My church against which the gates of hell cannot prevail. Only in this way can My bride be prepared in all her glory. Do not delay in responding to my words for the time is short.
