Message for Puerto Rico 8/4/89
I set forth to write those things which the Lord spoke to me in a dream and through a vision given to me this same day: The Lord said to me: “Do you remember the word I once spoke to you, that the land was filled with pharisees? You must speak this word to Puerto Rico. You must not fear to speak this word and all the words I am about to give you. I have given them a time to repent, but they have not repented. They speak against their brothers and judge them harshly. Tell them that the time has come that with what measure they have judged, they shall now be judged. They have not walked in love; they have not been long-suffering; they have not had mercy; they have not been tolerant; they have not looked for peace; they have not been meek; they have not been patient; they have not been busy in well doing; therefore, even so, shall I not be patient, nor merciful, nor tolerant with them any longer. Woe unto you, you hypocrites! I warned you well. As the pharisees before you, so are you white washed tombs. You clean the outside, but the inside is defiled. You say I am your Father, but I know you not. You do no show forth My fruit, for I daily forgive you, but you daily condemn. You have made holiness a thing of the law, neglecting true holiness within. You add daily to the law, new laws, searching for more burdens to lay upon My people. You have made My Gospel a gospel of “thou shall not”, rather than “thou shall” love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your might. You have not understood that your sin is greater than those you accuse. I set you to love and to teach in love, but you have set yourselves as judges and have become harsh executioners, saying of the weak and stumbling, who needed a hand of love to help them find the way, that they are daughters of Jezebel, sons of the devil. Yet, their sins shall be pardoned, if they repent, but you are in danger, for you have called your brother names. You have had no love. Even worse have some of you done, for you have failed to understand that I will use what vessel I choose. Which of you are truly perfect? Shall I wait to use My people when they are perfect? No man would then be saved! Yet when I use them, even though they be but fragile vessels, you say it is not My Spirit, that they are filled with a demon. What? Have you not read that I shall not forgive those who blaspheme My Holy Spirit? How is it that you look for details to make new laws from, but disobey the law that can send your souls to hell? You are filled with self-righteousness and pride. You see yourselves perfected, better than the others. You make yourselves to be judges, not leaving the work of sanctification to My Holy Spirit, but thinking yourselves more able, you set about to “sanctify” others. You offend My Spirit, for you have not allowed, neither do you like or approve the work that He does; is this not blasphemy? Have you not set yourselves upon a throne that is not yours? Satan has turned your hearts to be evil in your holiness, and though you be clean without, you are defiled within. I know well that you will turn away your faces, you will not hear. You will not hear! You will accuse all who speak this truth by My Spirit. Anger will burn in your hearts and you will sharpen your tongues against My servants who prophesy these words to you. You will heap more destruction upon yourselves. Yet I say unto you, many which you have condemned for their outer appearance shall surely enter Heaven before you will. And many of you will see hell, while many of those you say will go to hell will be seated at My table. For I the Lord look upon the hearts of My people and I consider their strength. To the weak I will have mercy, if their hearts trust in Me; to the proud I will not show mercy. You have not heeded these words: “Judge not, lest ye be judged”, but now these words will strangle you.” Then the Lord told me these words must be given to the church in Puerto Rico, whether they will hear or not. To those that repent and humble themselves, they will be forgiven, but those who come against these words shall seal their own judgment. He told me that if these words be rejected, He will surely take Me from there and I am to shake the dust of my feet off against them for a testimony, even as He told me to do when He took me out of the English speaking church, that would not hear because of their pride, when He pronounced the word “Icabod”, which means: “the glory of the Lord has departed.” “Oh Island of Puerto Rico, so much like one who was chosen before you, even Israel; have you not read in My Word what became of those pharisees of the land of Israel, after the Son of Man himself walked among them? Surely, the believers were spread about to bring forth the gospel, but the land of Israel was destroyed and those self righteous pharisees were killed or led away captive along with the people of the land. I put My eyes upon you to use you for a mighty thing, but many have been a stumbling block, tearing down that which I build up. I called you to be a light house to the nations, but your lighthouse is unfinished, and many of the bricks are crumbling from the rot that is within.” I looked then and saw a lighthouse on a stormy day. Its construction was not yet finished. The tower was nearly complete, over half was done, but the part where the light at the top goes, had not yet been finished. It was made of white bricks. Although they looked the same from the outside, on the inside some were green with rot. These began to decay and crumble under the weight. I saw the tower began to fall over I wept in sorrow, for the storm was all about and the lighthouse was so badly needed then. Then I saw a second vision of the land of Puerto Rico in the countryside. I saw branches and leaves laying everywhere on the ground. I saw fruit all over the ground that had been blown or shaken off the trees, but it was not only the ripe fruit, but the green fruit as well. I did not know what great thing happened to cause all the fruit to fall. After the vision the Lord said this: “IF there is not found the fruit of the Spirit, neither the fruit of repentance, then shall this judgment come upon then.” Personal note: Hurricane Hugo arrived September, 18, 1989, leaving trees upon the ground. All the crops were destroyed, and the fruit ripped from the trees before they had occasion to reach maturity.
Message to New York 8/09/89
As I was seeking the Lord, I suddenly saw these things: I saw the West Side Highway in Manhattan, NY, with water flowing in the streets; the water appeared to be rushing from the north to the south, over a foot deep in some areas. Then I saw police cars at night arriving to find a victim, which they said was yet another in a series of victims that had been brutally killed, and they had no clue as to the assailant was. I saw streets filled with garbage piled up and the stink from the garbage was over the city. I saw rats, many rats, running through the garbage and in the alleys of the streets. I then saw a train, a commuter train, derailed and many hurt. I saw a building, and underneath the building I saw a gas pipe break and gas leaked out until there was an explosion. I could see people walking in fear for the crime and muggers that were in the streets. I could feel the city pulsating (as a heart pulsates when someone is afraid). I could see the sky darken and it seemed to be descending downward. I saw a bridge that appeared as if a cable broke and it cracked open on the right side, separating the road of the bridge several feet in depth. I saw a fiery crash of an airplane near an airport tower. I could not tell if the plane simply had crashed off the runway or if it had crashed upon the highway next to the runway for I saw it from a distance, but I knew there were dead and injured both on the plane and on the ground. I saw a group of angry people, picketing because their money had been misused and there was no funds to pay them; I felt that they were government employees. I saw people drinking from water fountains but the water was bad tasting; it was contaminated water. The heartbeat of the city kept beating faster as if the city buildings were walls closing in. Then I heard the voice of the Lord say, “The door is beginning to close. The grip upon them is tightening, squeezing them. One evil upon another shall fall upon them, and plague shall be all about them. Their time has come. The door is closing upon them. Look up! Look up, that you might be saved! The door is closing you in; you are trapped on all sides but one; look up! Look up, that I might save you, says the Lord! I am your only escape, oh great city of New York! You are forced to look to Me to live, or to die.” The Lord then told me the evil is within; the leaders are evil. He spoke and said this of a leader of this city: “As he has submitted to men to be used, and has submitted and used them, so shall now his shame be uncovered and the perversion within shall rot his bones” Then I saw an army of Christians marching in a line. Others joined and formed ranks. They marched across the city, foot by foot with their eyes fixed straight ahead. I saw the enemy rise and send forth an army against them. They threw bricks and bottles, and rocks, but they could not stop the Christian army; they could not overcome them. The army kept advancing and marched over top of the enemy and trampled them under foot. “It is time for My people to march, crying out: “Look up and be saved, for your end has come, great city!” For the door is closing and their time comes to and end to repent, says the Lord. It is not time to flee, says the Lord to His people, but to join in and cry out; to form ranks, and tighten the ranks that there be no gaps. It is time that you must not look to the left or the the right, neither fear the enemy, but to advance, proclaiming the truth. Surely, when the time comes and the door shuts, I will remove My army and pour forth fire and destruction upon this city, the like has not been seen, says the Lord. Behold, the time runs out for this city, her final days approach, her last opportunity is given. I will squeeze her, shut her in on all sides, enclosing her in, leaving no escape but one: ME! I AM the escape from the judgment to come, and there is not other.” Personal note: These reports came in the news since the date of this prophesy: 8/19/1989 a gas pipe explosion in Grammercy Park, Manhattan. Repeated water mains breaking and flooding Manhattan streets. Rat problems in the New York city slum areas, Airplane crash at LaGuardia Airport (this crash did not explode into flames due to rain, they said, but it was due to the intercession of many Christians who heard this word read over the radio)
Be Led By My Spirit 8/12/89
The Lord gave me this message for His people: “Tell My people that they must look ahead, with they eyes fixed on Me. They must not look to the right or to the left, for both are error. For one side is the world and its ways, but the other side is man's way. Even though men may believe their ways to be Mine, that is not always so. I guide My church by My Spirit, says the Lord. Men desire to guide it themselves. They say they are being led by Me to set rules and laws with which to govern My people by, but their motive is to be in control. Did I call them to control others? No, I called them to submit and allow My Spirit to be in control. Beware of those who come together forming committees to decide matters. They desire to be heard and to look wise. They desire a position, and honor, yet I have not called them to seek positions, but to seek Me, to humble themselves and seek Me. I have called them to come together, not in their own wisdom, but to humble themselves and to come before Me in one accord, seeking and waiting on Me to lead. Surely, I will speak My will through My vessels, and I will cause it to be confirmed among them. There will be no discussion neither debate, for they will be given, by My Spirit, like mind and purpose in the matter, says the Lord. Because man has not desired to follow My plan, they have left much error enter My body and have changed the powerful body of Christ into an institution of men. It has been easier for you to follow men which you can see than to follow by faith Him who you cannot see. But I did not call you to walk the easy path, neither the wide way, but the narrow way. But you prefer it this way, for if you err, you can blame it on another. When you say you follow Me, but fall into error because of your own stubbornness, or lack of faith, you cannot blame Me, for I am without fault, without error. Therefore, you shrink back from following by faith and take another way that appears easier, because you will not have to bear the responsibility if you waiver and fall; you will be able to blame it upon another. Surely, I will lead you in a sure way if you look to Me, and if you fall, I will help you rise again. But if you continue following men and their traditions, you shall surely become lukewarm and fall away, even as those who follow the world and her ways. There is one way only. There is no second choice, neither a second best way; there is only the way of the Spirit; everything else is error, says the Lord. When will you learn these things, My people? Look to Me and follow after My Spirit. Learn to humble yourselves and wait upon My Spirit and surely you will not be disappointed neither led astray, says the Lord. Follow after Me, and do no look to the left, for it is the world that calls you away, My children; and do not look to the right, for it is the doctrines of men, tradition and religiousness, that calls you to a path that seems to look right, but in truth, it is even a greater danger. Surely, those who are on the left path, who have fallen to the ways of the world, know that they are in error, and must repent if they are to find their way back upon the straight and narrow path once again. But those who are on the right path, even the path of self-righteousness, have believed themselves to be correct, and know not that they are in error, therefore, they do not repent and return to the straight path. I am the way; I am the path: I am the true light that lights the world: there is no other way, but to follow Me. Your eyes must be firmly fixed upon Me, says the Lord, or you will never find the path, the way that leads to eternal life. I am eternal life, and I give that life to whosoever trusts in Me. Walk with Me; take My hand; surely I will lead you even in the darkness, when your eyes cannot see; I will lead you, but your eyes must not look off from Me, lest you loose your way.” Scrip. Ref: Rom. 8:14; Col. 2:6-10; Ps. 1:1
A Message to the Church 9/10/89
I had this dream in which I was in a church sitting at the pulpit with several other ministers. They were kneeling and praying: “Oh God, send revival; save souls; there's so much evil and violence in the land; intervene, oh Lord!” I heard them praying this; then suddenly the Spirit of God came upon me strongly in the dream, and I stood to my feet and the Spirit began to prophesy through me these words: “Thus says the Lord: You pray and you ask Me to send revival, to save souls, to cleanse the land, but I say unto you, the land is filled with evil and the church is sick because you have not heard My Word. You have not walked right before Me, says the Lord; as the church is, so is the land. I see the things you do. I see the way you speak against your brothers; I see your evil thoughts; I see when you rob from Me the tithes and offerings; I see when you spend hundreds of dollars on the seats you sit on in the church, yet when the offering basket is passed for missionaries or the needy, you throw in loose change. I see that you neglect to care for the widows; you say that they were left well off, but you fail to give them what they need most, compassion and love, for they are lonely and you visit them not. I see your lack of love, your lack of prayer, your lack of faith. I see your pride and your selfishness. I see the motive for the things you do. Why do you therefore say unto Me, “Oh God, do something, send revival, heal the land?” Have you not read in My Word where it says, “If My people, who are called by My Name, will pray, and humble themselves and repent of their sins, turning from their wicked ways; then I will heal their land?” The land is the way it is because of the way My people are. They have not repented; they have not humbled themselves; they continue in their ways. They disobey My Word, therefore are their prayers unanswered. Repent! Fall down upon your faces and seek forgiveness from the Lord your God for your sin and your indifference; then will I send revival and bring healing to the land; when I see a truly repented heart, and My people humbled before Me, turned from their ways. Fall down! Fall down, both great and small, both leaders and sheep, for your pride has caused you to fall, and the land to be sick, for My church is sick, filled with pride and disobedience.” As I spoke these words, by the Spirit to the church in my dream, and not just that church alone, for I dreamed that I spoke this word in different churches as well, I saw a great move of the Spirit; pastors, people, falling face down at the altars, weeping in repentance and God's Spirit moving and filling those that were humbled down, in a mighty way. Scrip. Ref: 2 Chron. 7:14
The Consequences of Not Listening to the Voice of God 11/18/89
The Lord gave me these three visions: First I saw some sheep grazing in a beautiful valley that was covered with green grass and had a little stream running through it. The sheep were fat; so fat, that they were laying down just grazing on the grass that was around them. I saw the sky was blue with a few white clouds, but in an instant, the sky turned red and it seem to open up. A great blast of heat came down from the sky. The earth dried up and the stream was absorbed. Just a few leaves remained on the trees, which were few and far apart. The sheep had to get up to look for food. Before long, they were very thin, and had their tongues hanging out from thirst. I saw a mountain near the valley. Up on the mountain the Lord was standing with fresh grass and water. He called to the sheep below to come up and eat. The sheep could not see Him but they could hear His voice. Some of the sheep heard and tried to climb the rocky mountain. A few of them fell and could not make the climb, while others kept trying to climb. I heard some say: “This is too hard; why should we try? We will stay here below looking for food, surely we will find something, and this won't last much longer.” But there was very little to eat and when the sheep realized it and tried to make the climb, they did not have enough strength to even move. Those that succeeded in climbing came back down fat and healthy. The Lord spoke and said: “This is how My church is. I blessed the earth for their sakes; there was abundance all around them, so much so that they became fat and lazy. What will they do when the earth is cursed because of the sins of men? They should obey My voice and follow where My Spirit leads them, for I will lead My sheep where there is food and water, and I will sustain them by My hand. They must get up and follow in faith, for surely I will guide them and I will not abandon them, those who are diligent in seeking Me.” After this I saw people buying and selling, using gold and silver, and there was great prosperity. In an instant, things changed and there was no longer gold or silver. I saw people going from business to business saying: “We will work for whatever you are willing to give us.” But the owners replied: “We have nothing to give you for your work.” Then I saw the hands of the Lord with gold in one hand and silver in the other. I heard him calling to His people, saying: “I prospered the earth, and there was abundance, but now what will you do when the earth is cursed because of the multitudes of the sins of man? Tell My people: I am the Lord of the gold and silver. I am not insufficient. I speak to My children, those who are walking in faith and obedience, listening for My voice, and I guide them to their provision; they must follow My voice and obey My directions.” Finally I saw people walking inside a temple with their hands over their ears. I went up to them and tried to take their hands off of their ears, and asked them: “Why have you covered your ears with your hands?” They answered: “Because we are afraid to hear.” I asked them: “How will you be able then to hear the voice of the Lord when He speaks?” They answered: “We are afraid of being deceived, because we do not know how to listen for the voice of the Lord, so how will we know if it is He who speaks or not? It is better to not hear anything then to be deceived.” I replied: “How then will you be guided by the Lord if you do not know how to listen to, or do not recognize His voice?” They replied: “God will send us someone who will tell us what to do. God will speak to us through them. The Lord knows we are afraid, that we are weak, so He will send someone who we can see and touch, and they will tell us what He says.” To this I replied: “God moves by His Spirit, which you cannot see; you must walk by faith, not by sight.” They answered saying: “We are not able to understand, so God will do it our way, because He knows we are weak and we are not able to understand things His way.” In a moment I saw in the midst of the congregation these green frogs that jumped in the midst of the people. Some of them jumped and landed on the tongues of some of the people, and they swallowed them. They began to prophesy, but it was false spirits that were prophesying, telling the people how to live their lives. The people spoke and told me: “You see? It is as we said.” I replied: “You are being deceived; this is a false spirit that speaks to you.” But they replied: “Be quiet, and leave us; we don't want to hear you anymore! This is how we want it to be. God sent us someone to show us the way, just as we wanted. It is easy for us to understand. It is an easy way. Yours is a hard way, so we like it better our way.” When they said this, I replied: “But there is only one way; narrow is the way that leads to eternal life, and few there be that find it!” They rejected me and told me to be quiet and leave them. The Lord then spoke and said: “This is how My people are, bound by fear; they are afraid of hearing My voice; they are afraid of walking in the Spirit, but without faith it is impossible to enter My Kingdom.” Later, as I prayed, the Lord spoke to me in relationship to Puerto Rico and said: “Once again they are hardening their hearts; tell them a great judgment will come upon them if they continue to judge others and disobey My Word, which tells them they are to love each other.” I asked the Lord: “Why is it that for a long time you have shown me judgments that would come upon the United States, but they have yet to be fulfilled, yet what you spoke over Puerto Rico, the hurricane you showed me, came to pass in just six weeks?” This is what the Lord replied: “Tell My people that with the measure they measure with, it will be measured back to them. The judgments over America have not yet occurred because they have not been as quick to judge as My people in Puerto Rico.” He also told me that Puerto Rico did not have an excuse, because the Gospel is preached throughout the island more than it is in the United States. The Lord said: “You must warn Puerto Rico: With the measure you judge with, you will be judged. The next judgment will be more severe, and more lives will be lost, because you have refused to repent and change your attitude after the first judgment, and have hardened your hearts even more. Nonetheless, in the midst of all this, I will protect My servants, those who are faithful and obedient, the humble, and those who are filled with love.” Personal note: Puerto Rico, an island 100 miles long, has 4 Christian radio stations, churches with services almost every night, and a Christian TV station. The Gospel is preached, yet there is much division among the brethren. The island has increased over the years, since this word, and has been beseiged by crime, drugs, corruption, financial problems, and political unrest.
Message to Cuba, Mexico, and Russia 12/3/89
I saw three visions: I saw two coins in a hand. One was written upon, the Dominican Republic in the other was written Cuba. I saw them begin to rub one against another, causing friction. I then saw the flag of Mexico on the ground, and people walking over it saying, “This is good for nothing, not even to use as toilet tissue!” They wished to leave their country, but could not. I then saw the Russian flag, red, with a sickle and anvil on it. It was floating over Europe. Then I saw the sickle come off the flag and begin to harvest, and blood flowed everywhere.
Message to the Church 12/10/89
While preaching at a church the Lord prophesied these words: “You ask Me why I have been so severe in chastising you, My people. I have put you to the test and will continue to try you. I am dealing quickly and severely with you because time is running out. There is no time to wait upon you. I must force you to seek Me and to walk uprightly for the days are short. He that is to come, the son of perdition, the evil one, even now is rising; his kingdom is forming. A great evil is rising upon the earth that will make war with My church. You must be prepared; you must prepare now! I am moving swiftly to prepare you. A great blood bath will come upon the earth, with evil persecuting that which is good, that which is Mine. It is rising even now, yet My people are unaware; they are not becoming strong in the power of My might. The kingdom of the evil one rises, united in power, while My people are divided one against another; having the power to overcome, they use it not.” Scrip. Ref: Heb. 12:6-8
Message to America 12/19/89
I saw the sky full of gray clouds. Suddenly they began to roll, like a scroll unrolling, opening up, and I could see literally a scroll coming out of the clouds, unrolling as it came. Upon it walked Jesus. I saw the scroll up close as He walked upon it like a sidewalk. I could see pages of the Bible hand written; Isaiah, Malachi, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Obadiah, Revelations, Samuel, Daniel, were some of names which I saw stretched out across the sky. Then I saw more papers hand written also, prophesies spoken by the Spirit of God, float up from the earth and float into place, forming a sidewalk with the ones from the Bible, and it circled the earth seven times in all. I saw the Lord walking on top of this sidewalk, walking over top of all these words that had been prophesied. Then the Lord came to a stop and spoke: “All things that have been spoken by My Spirit, through My servants shall be completed. All prophesy shall be fulfilled.” Then I heard Him say as He looked down to earth: “Come, My bride; come to your bridegroom, for it is time! The words which have been spoken will come to pass far more quickly than before. The message concerning the end is soon to be fulfilled and all things that are to be accomplished before that day, must be accomplished quickly.” Then I saw four angels standing in the heavens above the earth; two on each side of the Lord The first had lightening in his hands; the second had the wind, which swirled around him; the third had fire and great heat emanated from him; the fourth had cold coming forth from his mouth, bitter cold emanated from him. I saw them go down upon the earth. Then the Lord took me down and I saw the continent of North America, the United States. I saw the desert area, and I could see it growing larger ad larger. I could see storms and rain in the southeast, and cold, great cold in the northern parts. The Lord spoke and said: “The dry places shall become deserts and the fertile places shall become water holes.” Then I could hear the cry of people, murmuring and complaining. I could hear them crying out: “You have run this nation into ruin!” They were continually saying this. Then I saw the president, sitting at a desk, in great distress. He could hear the people crying this, and he kept saying, “What can I do; what can I do?” Then I saw him open a drawer and I saw a revolver in it. The Lord spoke then and told me, before this, a day of prayer for nation will be proclaimed, to call out to God for help that He might once again bless the nation. The Lord told me that when they cried out, He would not hear them. I was surprised at this, and asked Him: “But Lord, is this not what you wanted, that they would call upon you: Why will you not hear them?” This was His reply: “Because they will call out for Me to help, to bless them, that they might return to do as they did before. They are not calling out of a repented heart, sorrowing over their sins. They are looking to be blessed so that they can return to their sinful ways.” I asked about the church: I saw a great church, sparkling, rich and glamorous, but it was all a false front. Under it, I could see true believers in the dark on their knees, praying and worshiping the Lord. They were not many, in comparison to the false church. The Lord said He would watch over His true servants, hiding them under the shadow of His wing, protecting them through all this. The Lord then said these words at the end: “Those who believe by faith will receive justice, but those who have unbelief in the hearts will be judged.” Scrip. Ref: I Pet. 4:17-19
Signs of the End 12/30/89
I looked and saw the earth like a big ball, and around it was a dark black ring of smoke that formed clouds. From the clouds to the ground, the sky was a reddish color. I wondered what would make the whole sky look red, and what those dark clouds above were. Suddenly, the clouds began to part. I saw two enormous hands parting them. Then I saw these hands begin to open and release what looked like hot coals upon the earth. I saw them fall and burn into the earth like as if they melted holes right into the ground. Then I saw mountains tremble and smoke rise. I saw them spewing out hot, red lava, and the earth cracked open from the top to the bottom in various places, and lava seeped out. I saw the lava flowing like a river. Then I saw other mountains shaking and crumbling into pieces I saw the sea rise and huge waves formed. I looked and saw the land barren. I saw people upon the earth fighting to the death over a few wheat stalks. Water to drink was a precious thing to be fought over. There was no more buying in stores for clothing and things, neither going out for entertainment somewhere. All the energy was put into survival and people thought only on that. The Lord said then: “The time of the blue skies is over. The days are quickly coming upon mankind; now is the time for repentance; today is the day of salvation; tomorrow is the day of evil and want. Come unto the fountain of life, even Jesus Christ, and drink while there is yet time, that your soul might never die.” Scrip. Ref: Mat. 16:2-3; Rev. 8:7-13
