A VISION FROM GOD

The vision and voice came to me at approximately 3pm (GMT+7) on 10th November, 2008 while walking back to my home.

“A lion will come from heaven to the earth and it will roar with anger and bring fire with it. The fire will destroy all the churches”.

Today most churches are not following the Greatest Commandment or obeying God’s Higher Law, but instead they obey only the lower law made by man.

The Greatest Commandment as Jesus replied, “You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind”. This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbour as yourself’. The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments. - Matthew 22 v 37 - 40.

The churches have become self-righteous as they strive to gain honour, respect and love from the people. In so doing, they neglect to return what belongs to God and His people. For example, a political candidate seeks people to vote for him and to love him, but in the end, after he has won the election, what does he return to the people? Nothing, and in addition he takes more through corruption. A similar scenario applies to today’s churches. Jesus said, “Give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, and give to God what belongs to God”. - Mark 12 v 17. The churches neglect to return back to God, but rather rob and deny any reward as God’s Glory and Wealth.

Luke 10 v 2, as Jesus said, “The harvest is great, but the workers are few. Thus, pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest; ask him to send more workers into His fields”. The True workers are rare and few, since so many churches are unable to abide in the two great commandments as the law. This too has been instrumental in the past to create divisions among churches into various denominations and continues to segregate churches until today.

During this time, many churches are looking toward prophetic teaching and guidance for direction. Nevertheless, they believe they will know Jesus, even they do not know Him now. If and/or when Jesus stands in front of them, what will happen? Churches will prosecute Jesus again and they will deny Him as what the religious leaders did in the past! Jesus said, “I entered this world to render judgment - to give sight to the blind and to show those who think they see, that they are blind” - John 9 v 39, as many don’t see the Truth Messiah. The people who see the Truth are the people who carry the Greatest Commandment in their hearts and doing it in action for their life, they will know who is Jesus without Jesus saying anything and will follow Him.

Jesus said, “If the world hates you, remember that it hated me first. The world would love you as one of its own if you belonged to it, but you are no longer part of the world. I chose you to come out of the world, so it hates you”. - John 15 v 18 – 19. As stated in the 3rd paragraph, the churches neglect to follow the commandments but instead follow the government’s law and council decision so that they may maintain the church longer and gain more benefits from it. The government and religious council prosecuted Jesus.

Today, we see many big churches spending millions of dollars to build great churches. God will destroy them. Jesus said, “Do you see all these buildings? I tell you the truth they will be completely demolished. Not one stone will be left on top of another!” - Matthew 24 v 2, nothing can destroy the churches or temples such as tsunami, earthquake, hurricane, etc. The only thing, which can destroy the churches or temples, is the fire of God.

Recall, Jesus mentioned this, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up”. Jesus wants us to build up one another’s spiritual building and not only great churches and temples. He is implying that we should use our time and wealth to build up and edify people who need our help to build their faith, as they are our sheep, God’s children.

Likewise, Jesus said, “If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them gets lost, what will he do? Won’t he leave the ninety-nine others in the wilderness and go to search for the one that is lost until he finds it? And when he has found it, he will joyfully carry it home on his shoulders. When he arrives, he will call together his friends and neighbours saying, ‘Rejoice with me because I have found my lost sheep.’ - Luke 15 v 4 - 6.

We must encourage one another no matter how busy our schedules as the Lord wants us to be there for the people who are in need when the Great Commandment applies in our life.

As Christians, we must gather together and pray for all churches and pastors, as they are the greatest sinners of all! Pray and seek God to forgive their sins and their wrongdoing and the event will take place. Luke 6 v 27: Jesus said, “Love your enemies! Do good to those who hate you”. Jesus forgave Judas for what he had done! May God Bless always!
