Gregory’s comments from the Intercession & Prophetic Questions & Answers group.

Seven Letters Detailing the Prophetic Framework Of Christ Return
is revised book is fit for our moment of "beginning of Sorrows" as Jesus said. Let us not be to proud to consider His moment of Truth to a defiant world. Visit my website for more detail on author and book at www.greggb4hope.com Revival is what I hope this book aids in. It is a rerelease with another book "Inspired Writings" added to it despite the same title as previous edition.
If the rapture and wrath of God was written to the Thessalonians 2000 years ago a small community of saints yet din't happen. Why can't the churches consider Christ return with all we are made to see now? A mustard seed has blossomed! Thank you Jesus for your patience with a fallen world of sinners....still!

This book is available on Amazon with reviews and on goodreads.

The season is ripe and the Lord Jesus is coming soon for His Bride...the Church! Be ye ready and watchful.......indeed!!

Concerning the coming of our Lord, we need to bind doubt and loose hope magnified by enduring faith to the glory of our God. But what do I get in return? There is an old maxim that quotes "silence speaks volumes for even such lukewarmness gives an answer". So then silence is thunder because the response from so many churches is cold dead silence and God knows it! Jesus have mercy in that day when you roar as the Lion of Judah!!

Well said, Emily. I have often thought of a key verse that warns of abortion being so freely done based on our rights. In Romans Ch 1: 26 "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature." Some say this is referring to lesbianism but I disagree though that as well is unacceptable. It seems the "natural use" of women is to give birth because of the affections that come from men. It is totally against the nature of women or any birthing female in the animal and even insect world to destroy the life of what their very own body has provided. This is what God designed the woman and it is as inherent in her being as the air she breathes. Abortion on the magnitude we have now is unprecedented and the scripture reference seems unreal in times past but speaks loudly in the "now" generation.

Women have always had choice with consequences but for the govt or the majority of it's people to sanction it, clearly it is against the moral principle of what God allows. I believe this verse warns of such a state of affairs to come among so many other areas of concern brought out by Romans Ch 1. It warns of giving things up to a reprobate mind. In other word's have it your way and see for yourself the error of your sins. Forgiveness is always available but let's not kid ourselves for even the scripture state many refuse to repent.

Also, it is clear that democracy which in times past supported freedom of religion and therefore Christianity flourished. Christianity is now floundering and steadily becoming a "fallen away" institution from it's firm doctrinal principles of faith based on hope and under democratic control. Instead focusing on a "Kingdom Now" ideology with various new ideas. And some of the most dramatic is the recent action by the Episcopalians Branch which now fully accept and perform same sex marriages at the altar of God. Just 10 years ago no one would have ever thought this, including the ones who are performing the services.
I personally believe God's grace (favor) is being withdrawn and the churches are finding themselves more and more under the control of democracy and hence majority rule. The exemptions and the exceptions are being taken away…and from prophet's view…rightfully so.

Episcopalians is major branch of christianity and there are other branches preparing to do the same. Just go to the search engine and ask for churches that perform same sex marriages and it details just how pervasive the reinterpretation of scripture has found itself in the house of the Lord. This is the extreme side of the problem yet very visible. If we can ignore this then we can ignore everything in between and the salt is all but washed away.

I am getting preachy though I don't mean to but we are the prophets of the Lord on the Gentile side. Where are those that preach God's righteousness and yet offer repentance …Still? Perhaps, our prayers need to look forward for what is behind us is growing by leaps and bounds. The Lord says therefore when ye see these things…..Rejoice and know that the time is near! As christians, are we consumed with the politics of this world and the fruits of our labor and the freedom as we please to the point of forgetting our First Love as warned in the Seven Letters to the Churches in Revelations? Let us pray indeed…even with tears that some may hear the voice of His Spirit and be sober.
Blessings ..my friends!

His Spirit has required of me to acknowledge the state of America and to see it has He sees it. His purpose is not to save America but to prepare His Church for the reality of certain events that are to occur. Our democracy has continued to live above God's moral laws and the dire consequences of such will be permitted to their own hurt and such is giving things up to a reprobate mind.

He has commanded me to write two declarations and they are titled "Tears For America" dated 1991….and "An Answer To The Tears, My America". He spoke to me early for our God knew the prideful heart of the people and the lack of desire for the hope of His Son coming which is so silent in the churches. Are they looking for Him or looking out for themselves? So hear these words my sister Lee for they are in a book to help bring clarity, for this is an excerpt under the order of prophetic utterance that no one wants to hear.

>>>>"As Satan blinded Israel thru their selfishness and so they did stumble, is he blinding even the saints that they might stumble over the Word concerning Israel( rebirth May 1948) ? I affirm that our indifference has become equivalent to Israel's. Was not the Word written concerning Jesus coming and Israel refused to believe in that hour? Now the Word is written concerning Israel's return and we do not consider it in our hour! As Israel rejected the Christ in their ignorance, I have been made to see also that the Church institution is in unbelief concerning the hope of Israel's redemption.

Oh the wisdom of the Lord in the performing of His Test. What goes around is coming around once again. First the Jew but now the Gentiles and I cannot refuse it or argue His point of fairness. This is righteousness at it's finest and I know God is the preparer of it. Church of Gentiles be careful of having your own self righteousness…be careful indeed!>>>>>>>>>

In other words, Lee, the Lord is already saying it but most are hard of hearing even in far too many churches. For it is the duty of the Church to know the season for the coming of the Groom for his Bride….but do they sleep or are they sober? Saving a nation is secondary to saving his Church therefore what if so many churches are falling away under the freedom of democracy? For it is written the gates of hell shall not prevail against His Church. We band under the banner of our national flag but do we band under the banner of the Cross as christians collectively? What has happened for the churches seem more divided among themselves than the nation of it's people! So perhaps that is why there is a rapture to yet occur. Because more than half the churches are given over to the democratic vote rather than the biblical mandates of the God we serve!

Where is their first love our Lord ask? The wheat will be protected but the tares will be left behind! The reality of the redemption of Israel is what most are refusing to see and the Holy Spirit grieves for it is already forewarned in Romans Ch11 and the season is ripe for it's finality! Are we worshipping God in spirit and in truth, or busy protecting our traditions far more than promoting the Gospel of Christ? The whole earth is the Lord not just America and it is the whole earth God is preparing to deal with!

To properly intercede we must not pray for ourselves but pray to know His Will as it is in accordance to the already written Word….for it lives….Still! And it is the Holy Spirit which will lead so may the few pray the effectual prayer of the righteous for the many. Let us indeed pray that we may have strong backs. For the season of change that is sure to come, just in case we are given a heavy load to bare!

Gregory
"Minister of the Prophetic Word"

There is something else in the wind of the change in seasons and God declares it in these words:
"I am God, and there is no other. I am God and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning and from ancient times things that are not yet done. Saying 'My counsel shall stand and I will do all My pleasure….indeed I have spoken it. I will also bring it to pass. I have purposed it; I will also do it." Isaiah 46:9-11

The best encouragement for me has always been His truth even as it reveals His enemies to the hope we have in Christ. We worship our God in spirit and in truth!

She seems to answer her own question quite well but also refuse to respond to the reality of it's truth. Your counsel is sound and appropriate for her. She has been set free to serve God in a greater capacity but refuses to leave the cage to walk a new opportunity. Preferring what was rather than reaching for what can be. Perhaps to be given a husband of like spiritual fervor for the Lord and greater love for her. She may also be overly concerned with the negative impact of her ministry due to such a "failure". If errors of the heart didn't impact the ministry of apostle Paul who persecuted the church then God will strengthen her to serve Him with the heart of His forgiveness…May she be able to forgive herself!

Therefore when we see these things rejoice!

Amen, Ariela….Knowing that his days are numbered so shall his roar be louder. He comes to kill, steal and destroy but such shall not prevail against the believer in Christ. For our destiny is with the Lord and the gates of hell shall not deny us the hope and the promises from the God we serve.

In Ephesians 1:17-18 "That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him. The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that we may know what is the hope of his calling and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints"….Amen

We are in the season of great changes and we need to pray that we hear the voice of the Holy Spirit for the spirit of wisdom and revelation to pour upon us the mind and heart of God.

I am convinced that God is leading me to see His righteousness at work in the earth. For the season is ripe for a great change among us. And I am told to pray to endure by faith despite the the trials to come and to pray for others to be hopeful. For weeping endures but for a night but joy will come in the morning.

I hear you Lee, when all is said and done God reveals Himself in many ways and in many "seasons' of activity. Nothing prevents Him from being heard….only one's refusal to listen waste the opportunity to hear His abiding presence which always comes with a "word" for my blessing.

Be still and know that he is God and that he is already where I am at and that I needn't to go somewhere else to hear Him. He speaks in the silence of my thoughts…for it is the silence of my own mind which brings the "thunder" of God into my being. It is rather odd to say that while in church I rarely hear His voice. I think this is because we can often be quite noisy with the wonderful music filling the air and the busyness of all it's service and functions.

This verse of Ephesians 2:6-7 has always been a favorite of mine for various reasons. One of them is the grand scale of God's dominion over the affairs of this world system. I find that to fully grasp the vastness of God's purpose for "us" through Jesus is to also read the introduction to the concept in verses 1-5 which reads" And you have been quickened who dead to trespasses and sins…wherein we walk according to the course of this world…..according to the prince of the air and working in the children of disobedience…fulfilling the desires
of the flesh and being children of wrath (warlike). But God rich in mercy….quickened us (back) together with Christ. Then in verse 6 which I find the authority of God at work, the KJV reads "raised us up together and made us sit together in heavenly places"…..etc.

I am curious Emily about the verse you quoted because it doesn't have two words which I find central to the concept the Apostle Paul is giving. The two words are "together" and "made". I consider this to be a community of saints of all walks of life and under the authority of God demonstrated in Christ was compelling enough to make us drop our warlike nature and fulfilling of fleshy desires in favor of eternal life as seen in the resurrection of Christ and exemplified by sitting together even on earth as we prepare to sit with Him in heaven. And it is a far better promise than what the world offers.

Can we really receive so great an honor if we find opposition with others even among the church community at large? While I feel the personal setting of the wonderfully stated Ephesians Chapter 2, it has given me even more so a corporate entity of what Christianity should be among it's earthly citizens. Am I wrong thinking this way?

I can agree with that and you are blessed to have such leadership despite the size of the church. True pastors are shepherds of the flock and protectors of their integrity in Christ. Far more than a career it ought to be a love as symbolic of Christ love for the Church but often function in other capacities better than as a pastor. They need to know how to follow (Christ) and lead the flock at the same time.

You have a sense of completion in your prayer request and know that there is no more that you can ask of the Lord. It is now all in His hands and you have a peace and a patience at work in you that is flu of confidence. When praying for other you sense it in their eyes which is the window to the soul.

I agree with Laura, it is like a heavy burden is lifted thou the may yet be present, it 's future is doomed by the Holy Spirit….just be patient. Sometimes we are not always patient in our request. Sometimes we can hinder what God is doing on our behalf.

Thanks Lee for your confirmation and insight. I often think of John the Baptist issuing the prophetic decree of his day and how the people heard it and many followed So but the religious body of Pharisees and Saduccees and others continue to give a deaf ear to the reality of Christ. I would like to believe that we would learn from history but it seems we are preparing to repeat it.

The position of the pastor is a critical one because they are the shepherd for the flock and the flock follow them…..even in blind obedience. I see it far too often as I go place to place in service. Far too many pastors has secured for themselves a "job" and they don't want to risk something that in reality they don't own. Christ owns the church and is it any wonder some are left behind?

I do need to cast out strongholds of doubt in our prayers for we must deal with the weeds and tares that are also mounting their wings in the House of the Lord. Pastoral silence is hindering the flock and casting out knowledge by not letting knowledge and wisdom in which the Lord said….My people perish for lack of knowledge. And how true!

I am going to attempt to answer a question that has not been asked yet: This dissertation is based on my experience with sharing the prophetic word of God to pastors. They are often self absorbed to the point that only operate a three fold ministry instead of a 5 fold ministry. Leaving out the prophet and the apostle! Below is what I was made to write under inspiration concerning the relationship of pastor and prophet and how they should work in the House of the Lord.

"The Pastor and the Prophet"

These are the words the Lord has spoken:

For our determination has been found before His Throne

And He has heard the desires of our hearts.
And so a place shall be established . . .

Yea..A habitation that the Spirit of Him might dwell In the fullness of His Truth.

And in My House shall tears be brought before My Altar. 

That there should be joy and joy unspeakable.


For who can know me lest my righteous judgment touch thee? 

So let the minister lead and shall the prophet proclaim.

Let the minister protect and yet the prophet advise.

And shall my minister build the walls for my Sanctuary

But my prophet shall be without blueprint...... For he is mine!

Let these things be lest the congregation be overwhelmed
And My Word becomes hindered.


Therefore, I sanction thee to work well in My House. 

For the work of the ministry is for the perfecting of the saints. 

That they might know the fullness of Him whom I have sent. 

Therefore, bring me the fruit of their repentance.

That my Spirit might settle upon the meek

And the lame and the down trodden and the fearful.

Yea, even the poor and the lost who need to be found.


I counsel thee to Stand at the Door of My Gate
and Sound the Trumpet of Departure 

That they might taste that which is Hope and know that which is Pure.

Sound it well that my Spirit might hear thine expectation! 

And know for a certainty thy precious faith and expectation.

That it is in my Son, the Christ, the Blessed Redeemer for all the earth.

Hold fast to that which is true and righteous, my Church.


For the God of Israel is set to speak once again.

And it is His righteousness, which shall be declared by his prophets. 

So gather the flock my ministers! Sound the alarm my prophets!

That we shall make way for the Lord of Lords and King of Kings. 

He is savior to the Gentiles and yet shall our Lord demonstrate

In Zion the Deliverer and Messiah to the Jews......at last! 

All to the glory of God shall these things be Amen
...….

To the Churches, let us place these words in the center of our hearts that they might be found at the entrance of His Church.


I commission your prayers of intercession in this regard…thank you!

Glad to be on board as a student of prophecy and part of the overseer for the Church. Lee, you speak well of the pastors not being well equipped and I might add they feel that that are equipped enough and often challenge the need for the scouting report of those working in the prophetic ministry. Time will tell and so shall the Spirit of Truth!
