A Charge

       The Lord says to pray specifically for Los Angeles and for Chile, and for South America in general. We are to pray for repentance of the people there to turn to righteousness in order to be healed and restored. God will exercise His mercy and withhold judgement, however, we, His church, must pray not only for our own land, but also for these other areas.
       He also says:
       Tell My people to give up all areas of self dependency. And as they turn from self unto He Who created them so shall I continue to turn My attention unto them, and providing for their needs according to My riches in glory. For the self sufficiency that abounds throughout My church is not pleasing to Me.
       And those who are proclaiming the gospel of self sufficiency in order to prepare themselves against the contingencies that shall occur on the earth are not sent of Me. Some are operating out of their own flesh, out of their own sense of fear, others have come under the influence of the evil one and are delighting in the sense of control they feel that empowers their perverted ministries.
       And I would not have My people in bondage to the things of the world and to the things of the evil one. But I would have My people dependent upon Me, and the riches of My glory, through Christ Jesus, in order to sustain them and to strengthen them for the things that are most assuredly coming.
       And each and every one of these trying circumstances is another opportunity for My saints to stand strong in the power of My Holy Spirit and to continue to increase their faith in My ability to provide for the things that they need. And those who continue to rely upon their own strength, and who continue to reject all of the provisions that I have bestowed upon them, these are an abomination in My sight and they are cursed by the very words that have been recorded as spoken by My prophets—My prophets of old, and My prophets of today.
       For I am the Lord, and I change not. And I know the end from the beginning and I have not deviated from My purpose for My church. Those who continue to deride Me and scorn and mock Me are thus continuing to ensure their own future existence in eternity in a place that they will be shocked to find themselves.
       And you, My church, must stand strong in My strength, for I am your rock, I am your fortress, I am your buckler, and I am your shield. And you are to go and tell those who have so rejected Me that they also may look unto Me as the very source of all that is in their life, that they also may spend eternity with Me. For I am not willing that any should perish, and I continue to exercise great mercy before bringing judgement against those in My church and against those in the world. So therefore, you have a continuing call, you have a continuing commission to go into all the world and preach My gospel, and then shall the end of things as you know them, come.
       But if you continue to exercise your self dependency, and your self sufficiency in an attempt to meet the many crises that shall come to be, you will not be the salt and the light that speaks of My Son Jesus Christ Who has been lifted up that He may draw all men unto Himself. So I say again, you have a call, you have a commission, to preach the gospel of My Son Jesus Christ, and Him crucified.
       And I charge you now to walk in that call, to walk in that commission, knowing that as you depend upon Me, that I am more than sufficient to meet your needs and equip you to do that which I have called you and commissioned you to do.
