Another Weeping Prophet

I had a dream last night. That is not unusual. It is also not unusual for me to awake from the dream and not have a clue what it means but feel a very heavy weight. This morning the dream I was given disturbs me and I would not mind if I did not know what it means ... but I do. The weight of it has me posting this with a urgency and honestly I do not know if this is really a good idea. After all, how many will read what I write? And of those who might read who will respond to Holy Spirit if they do not know how to respond?

I am not certain there can be a response to this. Like the prophet Jeremiah I watch my people turn from the Truth and with determined vigor in their steps begin to run to any Lie.

I fear for a people, my people. I have seen a coming of such a bold and cunning lie, so alluring, that I fear that even the watchmen set on the wall for the American church and America will not see the threat, will no longer hear truth, and no longer sound an alarm but will themselves not only buy but will eat and will swallow that lie.

 Within our own seats of authority on every mountain of our society there are those who are the mouth pieces of the lie. These agents of the lie are being honored and called good when in them is all manner of rottenness and death. Their words and deeds are sweet to the deceived and a hope to those about to be deceived. Their way is a way that leads to nothing that is life. Shrouded in the cloud of darkness are those who follow them and they can no longer see the coming cloud of glory that carries The Hope ... and they do not care.

What I was lead to this morning in the scriptures alarms me and should alarm any who read and hear: "Has A nation changed gods, when they were not gods? But My people have changed their glory for that which does not profit. 'Be Appalled, O heavens, at this, and shudder, be very desolate', declares the Lord.

'For My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, to hew for themselves cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water. Is Israel (America) a slave? Or is he a homeborn servant? Why has he become a prey? The young lions ( terrorist ) have roared loudly. And they have made his land a waste; His cities have been destroyed, without inhabitant. Also the men of Memphis and Tahpanhes have shaved the crown of your head. Have you not done this to yourself, By your forsaking the Lord your God, when He led you in the way? But now what are you doing on the road to Egypt, to drink the waters of the Nile? Or what are you doing on the road to Assyria, to drink the waters of the Euphrates? Your own wickedness will correct and your apostasies will reprove you; know therefore and see that it is evil and bitter for you to forsake the Lord your God, and the dread of Me is not in you,' declares the Lord of host." Jeremiah 2:11-19. NAS

My prayer is: Holy Spirit help us not be deceived. Open our eyes to see and help us not turn away for what is truly good and right. Help us to recognize and repent from our wickedness and that we will quickly turn and run away form our apostasies back to You.

My we once again fear You, Holy God.
