We are coming up this year to a very important feast –
the Feast of Tabernacles. And that feast is going to be a
key timing for this nation. We are here at this time to avert a
disaster.
It is as serious as that.
The enemy is going to try to pre-empt
Armageddon and bring it forward. And there’s a reason for
that.
He knows that the church is going to reap a great
harvest, and if he can shorten the time and bring
Armageddon forward, the harvest will be lost. That is part of his
strategy.
We need to be aware of what is happening out
there. Our
prayer times are very important. We are here to save this
nation.
At this point,
Neville took much time to go through the history of how the
enemy has tried to annihilate the Jewish people over the years, with
special emphasis on the Yom Kippur War. He then
re-emphasized:
We are back at Square One again today. Israel is under threat
again. There are major
serious plans to annihilate the State of Israel. And the enemy is going to
try and precipitate Armageddon once again. He is going to try and bring
the time forward so the church will not have the time to reap the
harvest. That’s why we
must pray. The next attempt to annihilate Israel will be a
catalyst to a 14-year countdown. You need to be aware that we are
right in the end of time.
If the enemy can cut it short, then the harvest will
be lost. You need to
understand this.
Visitation from
Four Patriarchs
I want to share an experience I had on the
day that I left for Israel. It happened on Saturday,
the 31st of last month [May]. I got up early in the morning to
pray. I walked down to our living room to make a cup of tea
first, and when I walked into the room, there was a ladder of light
that went up through the
ceiling.
And so I stopped dead in my tracks. I
wondered, "Where did this ladder of light come from?"
Then I was aware of four men in the
room, and I knew who these men were. They were
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and
Joseph.
Abraham's
Request
Abraham said, “My name means
‘father of a multitude.’ Will you covenant with us to take care of our people,
Israel?
"The persecution that is coming
upon the Jewish people will make the Nazi holocaust look like
child’s play. Most of
the Israelis scattered around the world will not be able to
return to Israel.”
And he looked at me straight in the eye and said,
“Will you become their haven?
Will you prepare in your nations
places to receive them and protect
them?”
When he said this to me, suddenly the scene changed
and I saw many places around the world. I saw many people buying
land. People
were building houses with false walls to create hidden
rooms. Because
of the way they were built, you couldn’t tell from the outside. Then nations stood out. One of them was
Canada.
Another was New Zealand. Another one was
Australia.
There were many places in Scandinavia. Some places were very
remote. Some were in
cities and others were vast tracks of land. Some were in the
USA.
Joseph's Word
Another man spoke this to me: “Much
was spoken in your day about my ministry. I am
Joseph.
My name means ‘one who will increase.’ Many of you do not
understand. It’s not
just about money and wealth.
The name Pharaoh gave me meant 'savior of the
age.’ I
increased and became the savior of my
age.”
Later I
picked this up from Genesis 41:45 - And Pharaoh
called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah . . . And when I checked out the
root meanings, it means “savior of the
age.”
He said, “My ministry involved feeding and
saving the fledgling nation of Israel, providing food. It is three-fold. It is natural, it is spiritual and it is also financial.” I could hardly restrain
myself at this point.
He said, “God will provide wealth to build His Kingdom if we
seek His Kingdom first.
Then He will take care of
us.”
Then he looked at me with great
penetrating eyes. He
said, “A great famine is coming on the world. This will take many
forms.” He
looked at me, pointed his finger and said, “Be
prepared.”
He went on to say, “I represent one of the most
powerful rulers of my day, yet I became a god to Pharoah. I became the
mouthpiece of the Most High God. My word became law. This is the true Joseph ministry. There are many false Joseph
ministries out there.
My mission was to save many people’s lives. Tell the people they
are to become saviors of their
age.”
Then he quoted a Scripture to me: (Oba
1:21) And saviors shall
come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom
shall be the LORD's.
He looked so regal. He said, “We can only do so
much for you.
We can encourage you, but this is your
day. You must
prepare now.
The true Joseph ministry must now
arise.”
Isaac's
Word
Another voice spoke to me. He said, “I was a
child of promise.”
I looked at this man and knew he was
Isaac.
He said, “My name means ‘laughter.’ My mother laughed when she
was told she would have a son in her old
age.”
And then he said this: “Many in
the church will laugh when the teachings of God’s
sons will be proclaimed in fullness. But you must no longer hold back the
truth.”
I looked at this man and just
paused for a while to take all this
in.
He looked at me and said, “Many
sons will come forth in your day to become saviors of your age. This has been reserved for
your generation. These
are forerunners of a new race on the earth who will
come into the fullness and likeness of Jesus. For many of these sons,
their work is to protect the nation of
Israel.”
Then he said this to me:
“Remember . . .
(Mat
25:40) And the King
shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as
ye have done it
unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto
me.”
Jacob's
Word
Another man spoke up. He said, “I had a
destiny that involved the formation of the nation of
Israel.” This
man was very tall, very regal and emitted a lot of light. He said, “My insecurities caused
me much grief. My name
means ‘supplanter.’ But
it has another meaning – that of a circle. My life went in
circles until God took hold of me and changed me.” That man was
Jacob.
He said, “I encountered the
Lord at Bethel. I was
never the same again.
Insecurities will cause you to go in circles and miss
your calling and destiny. You must lay your life down
completely for the Lord.
It is better to die serving the Lord, than to die in
calamities that are coming upon the earth. You can only achieve what you were called to do when
you connect with God and when you walk under an open
heaven.”
He said, “Many years passed when I went through
testings, but finally I came to Peniel where I wrestled with the
Angel of the Lord. This
intercession brought final death to self in my life. My natural strength was
overcome with the strength of the
Lord.
"My name was changed to Israel. It means ‘a prince with
God,’ but also has the meaning ‘to rule with
God.’ My name
change reflected an inner change that had occurred within
me.
"The time is short. You must take hold of your
destinies and arise into your
callings.”
"Please Ask the People of God to Help Our People
Israel"
Finally, Abraham looked at me
and said, “Please ask the people of God
to help our people Israel.” His voice portrayed an
incredible sense of urgency. “We will be with you
when you go to
Israel.”
Friends, I want to tell you tonight that
this is a serious time. It is a time when we
can’t hold back the hand of God
anymore.
I said, “But, Lord, sometimes
we preach things that seemingly cause division.” And the Lord said to me,
almost angry, “I tell you, let the
spiritually dead bury their dead, but you go on and build the
Kingdom of
God.”
This is the time in which we
are living now. We have
come to the Kingdom for such a time as this. This is why we need to pray
for Israel. We are not
here to hear good sermons.
We are here to avoid a crisis. This is a serious time. It is not by chance that God
brought me back to Israel at this time. And what He was saying is
that there is going to be an attempt to repeat that Yom
Kippur War again.
We must
pray.
God
wants to bring a period of peace. He wants to bring stability
to this nation for a season. And then there will be a
season of stability in the world. Then the harvest will be
reaped. And then
after that things will get difficult
again.
It’s just like Joseph. There are going to
be seven good years. I didn’t
say easy years; I said good years. And we must work while it is
yet day for the night is coming when we will not be able to
work. Time is
short. You must rise
into your destinies now.
Decisions you make now will
control your life for the next fourteen years. You must make right
decisions.
