A COLLECTION OF PROPHECY Assembled by: Chuck-JOHNEL Forward hi Chuck-JOHNEL.- I' m sent a variety of prophetic words/rev elations, some by prophets, some by those who know them, and share those I have a witness to, seeing merit in printing them in our Newsletters for your edification and information.

You ought pray about each one you read and so exercise your capacity to discern by the Spirit of God. God bless. C,I^0W-

JESUS' WORD by HIS ANGEL to Chuck-JOHNEL February 20, 2009 12:20 Noon "JOHNEL, THE LORD JESUS HAS SENT ME WITH THIS WORD. DO NOT PRAY FOR THIS MAN, OBAMA, WHO OCCUPIES THE HIGHEST CHAIR IN THE LAND. INDEED, HE IS MORE THAN CAPABLE OF BEING THE ONE TO WHOM THE IRON ROD IS GIVEN; AND YET THIS HAS NOT BEEN DONE BY THE FATHER AT THIS TIME. IF YOU WILL PRAY, THEN PRAY AS YOUR BRETHREN DID DURING THE BLITZ, MISDIRECTING THE ATTENTION OF THE DESTROYER TO OTHERS OF LIKE KIND*. THIS MAN, OBAMA, IS FAR DEADLIER THAN ANYONE I MAGINES, ALL AROUND HIM ARE TAKEN IN BY HIS PERSONAL CHARM AND MAGNETISM AND THESE READILY EMBRACE THE IMAGE HE WORKS TO PORTRAY." *Note - This is a reference to the work of prayer in England (Rees Howell's Intercessors) during the Nazi bombing attacks. This group of Christians prayed asking the Lord GOD to cause Hitler to turn and invade the Soviet Union, lest the British Empire perish under the massive attack of the Nazi's. That prayer was answered.

"DO NOT WRITE THIS MAN, OBAMA, AT THIS TIME. NONETHELESS, THE LORD JESUS WILL HAVE YOU COMMUNICATE WITH HIM WHEN THIS NATION FACES GRAVE DANGERS, TO PRESENT HIM WITH THE OPPORTUNITY OF DEFLECTING HARM TO MY PEOPLE." (Lord JESUS, would he respond to any communication?) "HE WOULD ONLY IF IT IS IN HIS BEST INTEREST FOR THIS IS THE ONLY THING THAT TRULY MOTIVATES HIM.

JESUS' WORD to Chuck-JOHNEL Februar y 2 0 , 2009 (continued) YOUR BROTHER, GEORGE W. BUSH, DOES FACE A REAL DANGER FROM A TERRORIST PLOT THAT WILL AlM AT HIM PERSONALLY. YOU WILL CALL FOR PRAYER FOR THIS PRESIDENT, TO SAFEGUARD HIM AND HIS LOVED ONES. MAKE THIS A PRIORITY IN THE UPCOMING DAILY PRAYER SHEET TO BE SENT TO ALL ON THE MAILING LIST. I HAVE MADE YOU AWARE AND TO REMEMBER THE NUCLEAR DEVICE THAT HAS BEEN DISASSEMBLED AND BURIED IN KANSAS AT TWO DIFFERENT SITES - THEY WILL MOVE IT CAREFULLY TO A NEW SITE IN LOWER ILLINOIS IN THE NEXT MONTHS. THE ISLAMIC TERRORISTS HAVE LOST SOME OF THE TECHNICIANS THEY NEEDED TO MAKE THIS BOMB ACTIVE. THEY WERE TAKEN IN SWEEPS BY THE U.S. MILITARY IN AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ. OBAMA, DRIVEN BY THE ANTICHRIST SPIRIT, WILL ENDEAVOR TO HAVE THEM RELEASED AND AT THIS TIME THEY WILL BEGIN MOVING TOWARDS THE U.S. BORDER WITH MEXICO AND CROSS EASILY UNDER THIS NEW ADMINISTRATION. THE ISLAMIC TERRORISTS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF OBTAINING LOW GRADE PLUTONIUM, ENOUGH PLUTONIUM TO PRODUCE A 5 MEGATON NUCLEAR BOMB. ONCE THEY ACQUIRE THIS PLUTONIUM THEY WILL EASILY MOVE IT INTO THE U.S. ACROSS THE BORDER WITH MEXICO. I WILL LEAD YOU IN HOW TO PRAY ABOUT THIS MAN, OBAMA. ONCE THE NEW PRAYER SHEET IS WRITTEN, INCLUDE THE PRAYER FOR THE ISLAMIC PRAYER OPERATION. IT WILL TAKE SOME MONTHS OF PRAYER TO BE READY. I WILL LEAD YOU. ABIDE BELOVED SON, I AM WITH YOU AND KEEP YOU IN EVERY WAY."

Comment by Chuck-JOHNEL: I see this Word given to Richard-DANIEL on February 1, 2009 as pertaining/applying to everyone in the Bod y of Christ seeking an answer, help, direction, provision and/or insight/revelation . from the Lord concerning their situation(s).

Excerpts of Richard-DANIEL 's comments of 2-14-09.

(Quote)". . ."Qbama" —he doesn't appear to be "operating" at fu 11-power at this point. Perhaps the demoni'ant1christ power isn't fully entered and overshadowed, only it's a feint, a fake-out, a deception for the time. In a way, Obama almo St looks like an arrogant buffoon at times.

"Obama's bait-out" —amazing—it was voted on, a 1,400 page "bill" and no one read the legislation. No one read it. This will appear to work in the short term, but is bad news that will contribute to our destruction, economically. The first act of Obama is actually disguised destruction!

Mercy period —MarchlApril through to September 2009—this is still holding things at bay. Most likely, Obama's full power will not be seen until the Fall of this year.* ...So. the plan is to: (l.) Look to Jesus Christ and away from America as we've known it. That means looking upon the job, not as a job or career, but as Jesus' provision channel. That also means to look away from America and the world as we have related to both all of our lives.

(2.) Be vigilantly patient now in the focus upon and the beholding of Jesus Christ.

This God-given "approach" given to me spiritually by/through the Holy Spirit is enabling me to overcome the descending fear, anger, despair, and increasing hopelessness that is the fruit of the church system of man and the nation. Without this, I couldn't keep going as it is..."

PROPHETIC INSIGHTS OF APOSTLE DANIEL RODES (Permission to quote requested) Bishop Daniel D. Rodes Truth, Light and Life Ministry P. 0. Box 70 Mt. Crawford, VA. 22841 Truth Li g ht & Lie Ministries International. Daniel Rodes, Februa • 13 2009. ( Quote) "When the Lord told me that the vulture would replace the eagle in America, I i mmediately thought of death. He didn't say this, but I wonder if there will be a lot of people lose their lives..."

Note h Chuck-JOHNEL: Brother Rodes asked me for • my discernment on this insight and this is what I shared after prayer and doing a little concordance work.

(Quote C -J) About the question you raised in regards to: "The Lord told me that the vulture would replace the eagle in America" - I did a little concordance study and as we both know, the Eagle is symbolic of GOD or the SPIRIT OF GOD and it goes a bit deeper as one looks at Ezekiel 10 (four faces - cherubirnJ. The one Biblical reference to vultures is found in Isaiah 34: I5, but what drew my attention is the context of that chapter. It clearly speaks of the wrath of God, destruction by the sword and at the last, the leaders of the kingdom being "nothing" and the palaces . filled up with nettles and brambles, a habitation of dragons and a court for owls. Afew verses later- vultures are mentioned.

Of course, the first thing that came to mind on reading "vultures " was "death" but Iperceive the revelation is deeper than that.

We have been under the covering of the Eagle which represents GOD, THE SPIRIT OF GOD. The Vulture clearly speaks of death but more, it speaks of this nation coming under the "covering power of a spirit of death and ruin, " the opposite of the covering power of the Eagle. This speaks of this nation being led under a spirit of

EQuote.) by Chuck-.IOHNEL (Continued): death to death and destruction. More,

Isaiah 34 and the mention of "vultures "comes a ier the nation (princes, palaces) and everythingis destroyed. This suggests to me that "vultures "speaks ofsoniething that is a done deal already - America is already destroyed.

Years ago (1979) JESUS told me plainly that "THIS IS A DEAD PEOPLE ALREADY," and their unbelief was . foundational to their ruination and demise."

(Unquote C-J) I might add that Beastsnan Obarna is a known Communist and the Communists have a long history of slaughtering the populations they get power over - in the Soviet Union 70 million murdered, in Red China 200 million murdered, in Cambodia them murdered 1/3rd of the population. I could go on and on, but the point is simple - the vulture is a symbol of death and the vulture (death) is an appropriate symbol of Communism which now has dominion over the United States. (See Leith's Discernment about "the vulture" on Pages 15 and 16 of this Report) P ro phetic message given by Brother Daniel D. Rodes - February 6, 2009:

The "LIES - DECEPTION WORD" During a time of intercession for the nation and for the church. The Lord said.

"Deception will greatly increase year after year. In fact, the deception will he so strong that it will affect every one. There will be dishonest people taking advantage of you. Business places will be very unsafe to trust. Pastors will be more deceitful than ever. There will be more and more lawlessness as the deception increases. Many people who believe they are standing for the truth will eventually find themselves in a state of deception with no recovery. The Lord said those who do not love the truth will definitel y be deceived."

Several hours later, the Lord said, "The lying spirits have been released, not onlrin America, but across the world. It will be difficult to trust anyone in the future, including those who call themselves Christians. People will begin to question everyone, including pastors, teachers, evangelists, etc. in the churches. They will outright lie about church leaders. There will he a major attack on the Word of God. Also, they will question whether God's Word is the Word of God. Ministers who claim to be sound in the faith will be tested to the limit. There will be such wide spread lies and deception that it will be difficult for those who are not of an honest heart to discern the differences."

Prophetic message given b y Brother Daniel D. Rodes - Februar y 8, 2009:

The Lord said, "There will be a wide spread destruction across America with unusual and severe storms. This will cause a great shaking here in America.

There will also be extreme terrorist attacks on American soil. (I believe this can be somewhat hindered if the intercessors take their job seriously.) Even nations and people who were once friendly toward Americans will rail against and support the destruction of America. I asked the Lord why this was happening. He said because America at one time was friendly toward God and truth, she had

standards, she had law and order, but today, she has become lawless." He reminded me of the time in March of 2008 when we were praying over the city of Washington D.C. That day the Lord said to me, "The American eagle will be replaced with a vulture. I immediately thought of death."

Prophetic message given by Brother Daniel D. Rodes - September, 2008:

"BEST and WORST PRESIDENT" WORD The Lord said that, "He is going to give the USA an opportunity to vote for and elect the best President the United States has ever had. He will also give them a choice to vote for the worst President in United States histor y . He also told me that Mr. Obama is not a born citizen of the United States, but, through deception, the government will cover up this fact. He informed me that there will be a national exposure of this truth and there will even be a lawsuit put against the government, but it will be eventually dropped because they consider Mr. Obama to be their choice of President." The Lord said. "This man would become our President if the people of God did not earnestly pray, but there wasn't enough salt left in America to keep this evil from happening."

Note: Our churches, as well as many others, were in real battle, pleading with the Lord not to allow this man to become our President since the Lord revealed to me that he is not a true American and does not have an appreciation for America, but will "hide" his true agenda.

Just before Presidential nominee Obama was elected, he made numerous statements that the Lord said were to warn the American people for the last time that this man is dangerous. He is not an American, he does not have the American dream, but will eventually insist that all people become Muslim (although he calls himself a Christian ).' 1 (Unquote) Comment by Chuck-JOHNEL ; When I read hr-other Rodes Word about the "Best

Page P8 The Staff and Sword Ministr y /Prophecy March 6, 2009 vin nterrtbby Chuck-JOHNEL (Continued): and Worst "Presidents - well, I ne' who the "worst was " - Beastman Obama, hands down!

But who might be the 'Best" President? He would have to be among the candidates.

It was easy to nix out all the Democratic candidates - none qualified, and although any of them would be better than Obaina, none fit the "Best " category - not even close!

When I looked at the ranks of the Republicans and Libertarians and other (miscl.) candidates, Igot the same discernment - none really)it, not even Huckabee: though a pastor, Christian and a nice guy, he was not the "best" for An?erica. Maybe Huckabee was in the "area " but not the in the bull's-eye fbr "best ".

I didn 't trouble too much about this aware that the Lord JESUS could make it obvious in a flash - I was waiting for that "flash of insight."

Then on February 26, 2009 I caught a brief snippet on the O 'Reilly Fa ctor TV show, where O'Reilly referred to this, 'far right guy' (African-American, fornzer ArnbassadorALANKEYES) who made this comment that day: "Obania is a radical

Communist and I think it is becoming clear, and that is what I told people in Illinois and now everybody realizes it is true, that he is going to destroy this country. We are either going_ to stop him or the U.S.A. will cease to exist. " Alan Keyes.

I now remembered at the very first Republican debate Alan Keyes appeared with all the Republican candidates and addressed the woes of.America in a stra ight-forward, no fooling around, politics aside answer: In essence, Alan Keyes told the nation that our troubles in the schools is that we have taken GOD out of the classroom thus the violence, the lack of'discipline and moral behavior and why learning is so poor. He addressed the problem in America as having to do with the rejection of GOD through JESUS CHRIST and that we will fall as a nation ifwe do not turn around. He would essentially say, "People have wanted a candidate who could turn America around, I'm that man, they have been given a choice."

I rernemberthe other Republican candidates (Huckabee included) laughed at Keyes, some openly mocked him (McCain among them).

When we saw this Beastman Obama/Clinton in the GAP in 1987 it was crystal clear that their primary objective was to, "Destroy Christian America. "I've made that

Comment by Chuck-JOHNEL(Continued): crystal clear from the offset, starting back in 1982, then in 1987 and all through to this time. To hearAlan Keyes draw thi s conclusion as he stated earlier (I was unaware of that) and re-stated February 26`'' agrees perfectly with what we have known all along.

I discern this , was the `flash of insight" that identified the "Best" inan for President as being African-American Alan Keyes.

DR. DANIEL E. BOHLER' S PROPHETIC WORD "WARNING" (permission to quote requested) Dr. Daniel E. Bohler, Pastor Agape Harvest Church Ministries P. 0. Box 1415 Blue Springs, MO 64013 Dr. Daniel E. Bohler On Februar y 7 2009. "Warning". (Quote) "There has been inside of me a great concern for the Washington, D.C. area and the government of the United States as a whole. I have questioned the Lord on how to pray. It seems each day it changes in the way He has me praying for this President and the many other areas of our nation. But one thing I know, the warfare for the soul ofthis nation is the highest I have ever discerned. I am very concerned for the cold hearted Christians.

I see terrorist activity changing in their plans for this country. I see one very well timed attack which is timed to go off one right after the other. For example, I see teams of men positioning themselves in different locations across the country. This is part of what I saw in 1997 when I had the visitation from the Lord of which a video was made about this. Part of what I saw has happened, but the bigger picture is to come, and it is imminent.

We are in great trouble. So many areas are so easy to get to and will cause much death and destruction from New York to San Francisco, to hotels, big gambling casinos, shopping malls, rural mid-American cities, schools, colleges, trains, etc. We have had train attacks over the past five years that were reported as accidents.

America's landscape is about to be changed. The great shaking of the earth that you have heard me talk about is upon us, as well as the great power outages in certain areas. We have experienced many but more are coming.

We need to pray but also keep our eyes and ears open. This 2009 is going to be an unusually unsafe year. We must be ready mentally, spiritually and physically,

Dr. Daniel E. Bolder On February 7, 2009. `Warning". (Quote Continued) have a place to meet all of your family in a certain specific place if different areas are under martial law so we can help each other and comfort one another and pray for protection. Plead the Blood of Jesus.

Ever since the warring angel came to my living room and spoke with me, this has increased inside of me. If you remember, in early 2008 an angel appeared in our living room. He had a golden skull cap on his head. It looked like what a Roman soldier would wear from pictures I have seen. He began to look over at me and said "I am your warring angel." Well, within 36 hours, across the road from us, our friend's building was broken into. Many valuable tools were stolen, such as an expensive chain saw. Then the home behind our property was broken into and burned to the ground with the cars in the garage. I went over to see this the next day. The firemen said the people who stole the chain saw took it and cut through the back door.

The family was not home. The thieves continued up the road, breaking into houses and stealing. We were spared by our war angel for which I am so thankful.

I have had a knowing since that day that everything was going to get more dangerous all over the nation. The economy was not the headlines at that time and unemployment was not as high as it is now. We must not be slothful in our thinking and in our prayer life. Well meaning, good friends, a fleshly lifestyle and television can really hinder us.

Unprecedented natural disasters are at hand. The bird flu is killing over 60% of the people who have contacted it. 100% of the birds die that have had this plague. It's not a matter of if. . .it's WHEN! Because several cases have already appeared.

President Bush went to the Congress to get orders to have Martial Law activated when the bird flu plague spreads. Scientists say that hundreds of millions of people will die in a very short length of time.

Mark 24 says that many will fall away and deceive one another. Because of the lawlessness many people's love will grow cold. This lawlessness is being seen everywhere and we must not let our love for one another grow cold.

This economic meltdown is causing cold-hearted Christians to become like the world, This kind of thinking can get you killed. The bird flu plague will not pass over us if we are not walking with our Lord. I was shown this plague in 1997 in a visitation from the Lord. He took me to Ezekiel 32 and told me to put in the leader of this nation where it said `A Pharaoh' and to put in the United States where it said `An Egyptian' and that this chapter explains what is coming to the United States. He let me put a little of what I saw on the video, God's Divine Judgment . I will be making another one soon for the Lord has given me permission to give more explicit details to help the body of Christ prepare and be in a position to help themselves and others.

Michael Boldea Jr. On Januar y 20. 2009 "A Dream-As Promised". ( Quote) "...A quarter of a century is a long time no matter how you slice it, or what angle it is viewed from. To be honest, I was not in what one might call a celebratory frame of mind. In these twenty-five years I have laid to their final rest a grandmother, a grandfather, and a mother. I have known betrayal at the hands of men I considered brothers in Christ and friends fueled by something as unoriginal and despicable as greed. I have preached messages few wanted to hear, and have been despised for my stubborn unwillingness to compromise the word of God. Throughout the entirety of the mission trip, one question kept nagging at me, always somewhere in the back of my mind. Even though the trip turned out to be an encouraging and re-energizing blessing, and I saw hunger in the hearts of the people for the truth of God's word, feeling the presence of God in a deep and powerful way, I took no pleasure in the thousand plus crowds or their hearty applause. This one question kept echoing in my ears, and as yet I had received no answer. The question was simple: Is there still a need for a prophetic warning ministry once a nation has entered the season of fulfillment?

To me, a warning is a counsel or admonition to desist from a specified undesirable course of action. When someone is warned, that which they are warned against is unavoidable. Take for instance the reduce speed, winding road ahead' signs. One is warned to reduce their speed, due to the fact that tight curves are just ahead, but if they refuse to heed the warning, then they will suffer the consequences of their actions. I believe God has stopped warning for some time now, due to this nation's unwillingness to heed His warnings. His judgments are no longer avoidable, and the fulfillment of what has been spoken is visible even to those with no prophetic background.

I arrived back home after the week-long tour, and still the initial thought would not leave. As I began to further ponder this question, I began thinking to myself that maybe this was God's way of telling me I in fact could go back to my homeland, that I had done my duty, I had fulfilled my mission, I had preached, I had warned, I had 4

Michael Boldea Jr. On January 20, 2009 (Quote Continued) shared the dreams and visions, and now I was free to have a normal life, to spend time with my wife, have some children, maybe even buy a dog.

One thing that those who know me have grown to understand is that I am not in ministry to get rich or famous, to build a kingdom on earth or have my own face staring back at me from a bookshelf. I am in ministry out of obedience to God, and will not be in it one day longer than God desires me to be. Obedience keeps me; it's just that simple. Two days after arriving home I had pretty much talked myself into believing that I had received my release to move back home. Since I was flying back for Christmas, to be with the family, I began thinking why not just stay? Twenty-five years is a long time, no one could blame you if you stayed'.

That same night I had a dream. I dreamt I was standing at the edge of a cliff, overlooking a valley that stretched out below me. Although it was night, the valley was not dark due to the dozens of fires that were burning all around the valley. Large white tents peppered the valley floor, and men dressed in white were hurriedly preparing. Some were sharpening swords, others were polishing shields, but the selfsame look of purpose and determination was evident in the countenance of everyone.

As I continued watching I was startled when a hand touched my shoulder. I turned and stood face-to-face with the same man I had seen in my dreams on previous occasions.

"What do you think they are doing down there?" he asked pointing toward the valley and the men.

"It looks like they're pr eparing far a war, " I said gazing back at the valley.

"And what do y ou call a soldier that flees the battlefield on the eve of battle?"

"A deserter, " I said.

"A deserter" he echoed. "Why would the Father train and equip you toi- the coming battle only to release you as the battle is about to begin? You think this is the end but it is not. The need for light is multiplied as the darkness grows, not diminished; the need for truth becomes more necessary as deception consumes the innocent, not less relevant. In these dark hours the children of light must shine, in these evil days the truth must be proclaimed with boldness. You can choose to flee, but it is not the Father's will. You can stay and fight, and thus receive your just reward. The world has tainted many who ought to have stayed pure, and many have defiled themselves on Nebuchadnezzar's delicacies, thereby disqualifying themselves from being used in these days. The hosts of heaven stand ready even now to do battle on behalf of the righteous. Do not fear the

Michael Boldea Jr. On Januar y 20 2009 (Quote Continued) coming days for they have been foretold. Walk in the authority that has been given you, and do your duty as a faithful soldier ought to."

As the man finished speaking, I opened my eyes and was surprised to discover I was in my bed.

Some may wonder why I share this dream, because well, it is not very flattering.

In fact I got taken to the proverbial woodshed as the saying goes, but lest we forget the Lord chastens those He loves, and I am ever thankful that He loves me, and suffers my frailty.

I do not know how, but I know that God will make a way. The truth for need is evident. Not my truth, but God's truth, not the truth of any particular denomination, but the truth of God's Holy Word.

As human beings, men and women made of flesh and hone, we make plans, we have hopes and we envision a certain kind of future, but all our hopes and dreams, all our plans must be surrendered, in perfect harmony with the will of God for only in His will are peace, joy and comfort abundant and ever present.

We are on the precipice of volatile and troubling times, witnessing a rapidly changing world. There is a great upheaval corning in the spiritual, just as in the physical, and God will sift those who call themselves His children first and foremost, separating that which is righteous from that which is defiled. We must stand in the righteousness of God, having His Word as our standard and our foundation that we might not be swayed by the winds, or uprooted by the storms. In order to overcome one must face conflict and not flinch from battle, but an unprepared soldier whose armor is not on, and whose weapons are unknown to him, is easily overtaken by an enemy whose bloodlust knows no bounds. Our faith and obedience will carry us through the darkest of nights, because when faith and obedience are p . resent the light of God shines brighter than the sun, dispelling the darkness.

Romans 16:19-20 "For your obedience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen." (Unquote)

The strong winds of change are upon us! These are defining decisive days of transformation and change. No one will remain neutral—there is no middle ground.

March f, 2009

This is the year you wi 11 make great advance or fall far behind in the Kingdom of God. You hold the ke y ! The choice is up to you. Will you respond to the guidance of the Holy Spirit or will you walk by the light of your own fire?

"Look, all you who kindle a fire, who encircle yourselves with sparks: Walk in the light of your fire and in the sparks you have kindled. This you shall have from My hand: You shall lie down in torment." Isaiah 50:11 The people of God must be prepared for these definitive days.. The Spirit of God is calling for a mobilization and marshalling of the army of God; it is time for troop deployment. The word mobilization deals with preparing the forces for action.

The word marshalling deals with the gathering and organizing of troops.

We are called and commissioned for more than just sitting still and quiet in a church pew, it is time for a true revolution of love and loyalty. We are called to confront the kingdom of darkness. The word revolution deals with the overthrow of an evil government.

If you are concerned about modern-day trends toward permissiveness, promiscuity, and rebellion against the precepts of God, you will find these days of testing to be very needful. This will be a time of severe testing.

The Spirit of Truth is calling for an examination of what we trul y believe. It is ti me for a real reality check! No longer can we just talk. It is time to -walk out what we say we believe. It is time to be doing the Word, not just hearing and speaking it.

"But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one wil I be blessed in what he does." James 1:22-25 This is not the time for dead dry man-directed religion. Mere talk will not get us to where we need to go, it is going to take action and anointing. "For the Kingdom of God is not in word but in power." I Corinthians 4:20 The Body of Christ knows far too much to be living as low as we are living.

Never forget faith without works is dead.

"But do you want to know, 0 foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the alter? Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?" James 2:20-22 The Spirit of God is calling for a time of testing to reveal the condition of our spiritual foundation. "Vindicate me, 0 LORD, for I have walked in my integrity. I

Bobby Connor (Quote continued) have also trusted in the LORD; I shall not slip. Examine me, 0 LORD, and prove me; try my mind and my heart". Psalm 26:1-2 Be very sure that God is going to dig deep during these days. This is not time to attempt to cover up and conceal sin. "He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy". Proverbs 28:13 It is time to come clean, "Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God". II Corinthians 7:1 God is going to reveal what many have been busy seeking to conceal. It will be very unwise to attempt to cover up our secret sins. Numbers 32:23 warns that we can be sure our sins will be exposed, "But if you do not do so, then take note, you have sinned against the LORD; and be sure your sin will find you out."

In 2 Corinthians 13:5-6, Paul instructs us to test ourselves to make sure our lives are solid, "Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith." test yourselves. Do you no know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? —Unless indeed you are disqualified. But I trust that you will know that we are not disqualified."

We should ask God to reveal any hidden area of our heart, "Search rne, 0 God, and know my heart; try me, and know my anxieties". Psalm 139:23

We cannot know our own heart because it can and will deceive us, "The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways. According to the fruit of his doings." Jeremiah 17:9-10 It is time to seek the Lord until He comes and rains righteousness on us. (Hosea 10:12)" (Unquote)

Leith Lopez's Discernment of Februat

20,

2009.

On "The Vultures" (Brother Rodes Revelation, - see Pages 5 & 7) (Quote) "Dear CJ and NT, greetings! Chuck, you asked me if I'd discerned what the `vulture replacing the eagle' might mean? I've prayed for discernment for two days and I'm pondering this: Obarna Administration (equals =) Church system of man (equals =) vulture in office (vulture meaning an evil spirit who claims to be Christian but in

reality, operates in the flesh and not God's spirit, and is deceptive, dangerous and turns people away from Jesus Christ and His Word).

Eagle (equals =) God's protection over America, spiritual -wisdom, and courage.

Vulture (equals =) spiritual death, evil, deception.

Leith Lopez's Discernment of Fe/,ruaiy_20, 2009 (Continued) America (under 0bama's administration—also reflecting Church system of man) is being displaced (taken out) from under God's protection and being replaced under the Church system of man which brings spiritual death to American people who are not God's chosen people or God's chosen people to come.

American people will be easily deceived, and left unprotected by God's hands that have been removed from protecting America. Christians will be silenced by evil spirits who pretend to be Godly spirits, and Christians will be lead astray from their faith in Jesus Christ.

Chuck, this is what I see and know to be true and what the vulture replacing the eagle means.

Also, I did some research and included excerpts you would be interested in below." (Unquote) Below is infos-mation from a webs ite:... (Quote) "The vulture .spirit has also been sent to silence the voice of the p rophets. The vulture and the eagle are both birds of prey. The eagle represents the p r ophetic, and the vulture represents the counterfeit, which opposes the p r ophetic voice. This spirit will cause some to speak by the , flesh and call it the Spirit.

This same spirit will cause some to issue warnings to the propl?ets to be quiet because God isn 't speaking at this time. Clever plan, but it is flawed. If God is not speaking then there will be no hearing the word of'the Lord. if God is speaking, then He has not told the prophets to be silent unless He tells an individual to hold a word for a later time. Nevertheless, this spirit will deceive some and cause them to stop positioning themselves to receive the word of the Lord. This vulture spirit is very dangerous, as it will try to create a famine of the true word of'God and also bring forth words born of flesh and not Spirit.

The vulture spirit will promote the war between the Spirit and the flesh. This spirit will not only feed on the flesh, but it will cause the carnal church to rise up against the true, spiritual church. This is the same kind of spirit that caused the chief priests and elders to demand the death of'Jesus. The civil war in the church is about to begin, and a great carnage is about to take place. Satan 's greatest desire is to kill God's people, and his demonic spirits desire to feed on the carrion. " (Unquote) CLOSING COMMENT b yClauck-JOHNEL: I' m seeing two extremes in the prophetic realm today: (I) The hope that concerted prayer can turn it around, (2) A sense of hopelessness, leading to giving up and pulling out. JESUS has made it plain to me that we are IN the judgment" and will only go deeper - some may yet turn back (see Brian H's letter in WE GET LETTERS Page 17-18). The hope is to prepare and forewarn those who will heed before the full judgment closes on this nation and world. Time is up! God Bless.
