My Lightning Rod!

There is a sealing work of redemption and grace even of the heart. I know those marked as they are Mine. Where there is a dead body, the eagles will be gathered.

Vision:  I see a lightning rod, and I saw lightning strike the rod high on a building.  Yet the building did not burn because it was grounded to the earth.

Hear the Word of the LORD!  I shall call for the winds and the waves; the whirlwinds of the south, the stormy waters, the voice of thunder, crack of lightning and hail.

I AM sending out those sons of thunder.  There are My servants who are My lightning rods that I send.  I shall strike them and they shall preserve My house if the house is worthy of them.

Those who are grounded in My Word and total obedience to Me, it is these houses that will remain grounded.  No damage will come to these spiritual houses that are with My agenda. These houses shall be down to earth and not pretenders.

How many of My prophets have been kicked out, schemed against, talked about and others put to death by those who don’t believe?  They even call them devils!  You dare touch what you don’t understand?

If you don’t move with Me in My cloud when storms come, I will move on and the habitation that is left will be with great deception and error.  Believing doctrines of devils and all sorts of demonic buzzards ready to pick your flesh and bones.

Great will be the fall of that house. My Spirit will not always strive with man, I give space for men to repent.  If they refuse to hear and recognize those sent by Me to bring change and revival, I will move on.

There is a sealing work of redemption and grace even of the heart.  I know those marked as they are Mine.  Where there is a dead body, the eagles will be gathered.

Expect the eagles to be sent and gathered over those dead houses. If received and heeded, as lightning rod prophets, they will aid you in the coming days when all things in this nation and the world will crumble and fall.

Those who have received My prophets as prophets will be blessed and the people of that house will continue to hear My heart.  Yes you build structures of man, but is it what I commanded?  Houses of man will not survive in the coming days.

These who receive My lightning strike are real and down to earth.  These will remain grounded in My Word, and they shall continue as they remember the time of My visitation.

I AM sending My rods to many houses to see if they are truly grounded in Me and My Word.  Those who fail to heed My storm warnings and My lightning strikes, these will be burned with fire, and their name will never continue.

Man’s greatest achievements will fail because they fail to be grounded in Me and My Word.  They think they are out of harms way, but I AM only found where My Spirit moves.  Be careful not to touch that bolt, as those houses who reject My strike will burn with judgment. Judgment begins in My church.

Fire and lightning will follow those who are sent with My words.  Choose this day who you will serve.

As I make changes in the earth, sea and sky and go against normal patterns, you shall see that I AM raising up waves, I AM moving one finger and as the storm comes, the avalanches shall crash, the whirlwinds will upset normal patterns.  Because they didn’t heed My warnings, they will hear storm warnings!  The waves will crash, the lightning will strike, hail, whirlwinds and quakes will upset the normal balance and patterns of the earth.

Because I send a lightning rod to My house and they refuse him, they reject Me says the LORD.  If they reject My prophets in this hour they will not be prepared for what is coming.

Fire in My house?

Is it true fire or strange fire?

True anointing or false anointing?

True prophet or false prophet?

Will you recognize My anointed lightning rod?

If you reject My rod of correction, these houses of man will not survive.  They rejected My prophets consistently, and many still do.  What will you do when you recognize My anointed lightning rod?

Will you receive the rod in My love and in a spirit of meekness says the LORD?

“Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.  But I will come to you shortly, if the LORD will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.  For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.  What will ye?  shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?”   1 Corinthians 4:18- 21 KJV.

“Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, was there no hail.  And Pharaoh sent, and called for Moses and Aaron, and said unto them, I have sinned this time: the LORD is righteous, and I and my people are wicked. Intreat the LORD (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer.  And Moses said unto him, As soon as I AM gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the LORD; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest know how that the earth is the LORD’S,”   Exodus 26-29 KJV.

The Deep Calls Deeper Still

These found grace in the wilderness for the eyes of the LORD go to and fro seeking out those whose heart is towards Him. Each wave is bringing to birth more souls. The very earth is in transition with each wave, bringing to birth the will of God in all the earth.

To My Remnant:

I AM aware of everything you go through and care for.  Like an old ship and the captains wheel spinning out of control,  I see the turmoil in the hearts of My people like the waves and churning of the sea during deadly storms.

It takes much effort to go against the tides to stay within My presence when all things are seemingly going wrong.  Even when being tossed up and down and all around, trust Me!

Press in My beloved, press into Me and let the storms come, let the winds blow.  Trust Me!  I AM with you throughout all the ages.

Didn’t I say when you go through the waters I will be with you, and the rivers shall not overflow you?  Only when the tests come, will you truly know who and what you are made of.

Only when I pull back the hedge of protection will you truly know in whom you trust and the power you possess.  I know what I put into you from the foundation of the world; and it is time for the true sons of the living God to arise!

This is a monumental quest in time.  You have what it takes to face the coming storms; I have created you for such a time.  Beloved, you have asked for the deep, and deep calls unto deeper still, says the LORD.

Batten down the hatches!  Prepare to submerge and go down into the deep!  Prepare yourselves for difficult periods that are coming in every possible way to America and the earth.

Vision:

I saw a person in a row boat rowing frantically, while in the belly of a great whale.  The whale was moving but the person in the belly continued to row but seemingly didn’t go nowhere.  However, the whale continued moving into deeper places without effort.

I see a person on a stair master and the person is going very fast but getting no where.

I see a hamster cage with the rodent going in circles all the time and getting no where.

All three are examples of living in the moment with no progression.  Yet God knows what is happening behind the scenes.

Hear the word of the Lord;  “The enemies tactic is to put you in fear and pull you away from your pure devotion to Me as you see fearful things coming to the earth.  Put nothing or no one before Me.  You cannot lean on man or put trust in no one.

The progression is bit by bit, here a little there a little.  I the Lord call you to myself and desire your life as mine.

Yes, you have been given a choice as I don’t make anyone choose Me.  Be NOT moved from your own steadfastness, even if no one stands with you and you are all alone.”

Vision:

I see many people being tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine like the leaves are tossed when the winds blow strong.  Many people are going with whatever wind comes.

The roots grow deep when winds are strong.  However, many are being uprooted from their own steadfastness that should have remained steady.

Then I see others that have willingly gone through the processes of preparation and they are hung out to dry on a line as they flap in the winds.

“But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.  When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.  For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life,”   Isaiah 43:1-4 KJV.

The Soul of Our Nation!

We are chosen to live in such a time and God is entrusting us with heart and resolve to continue to protect the heart of this nation. Our nation has been split down the middle and we need to heal. Christians, we must continue fervently to labor in prayer for the Soul of our nation!

At the time of greatest prosperity, as well described by Jonah, Nineveh itself a great city had an area sufficient to house a population of 120,000.

In the book of Jonah, Nineveh received mercy and grace after the people responded to his message and repented; however later, Nahum the prophet declares that the city will receive the sentence of judgment because of ruthless godless ways.

The prophesy is carried out by God when Babylon and Medes overthrew the city in 612 BC.  God DOES use nations to discipline His children and other nations.

Nahum’s name means compassion, but there is very little compassion in his harsh message about Nineveh’s impending judgment from God.  God’s anger is released against the excessive cruelty of a proud nation.  Sound familiar?

When prophesy and judgment spoken through Jonah was heard, the whole city, the leaders, the people and even the animal’s were on a fast to repent.

Did GOD spare that great city of Nineveh in Jonah’s day?  Indeed we say yes!  Why?  Because there was true repentance and God heard their prayers and saw their actions.  He relented and forgave them.

There is a major danger after such change comes to our nation.  It is so easy to think our actions and attitudes don’t matter.  After all the hoopla and the days and years move on, don’t think the enemy will lay down and play nice!

We are chosen to live in such a time and God is entrusting us with heart and resolve to continue to protect the heart of this nation.  Our nation has been split down the middle and we need to heal.  Christians, we must continue fervently to labor in prayer for the Soul of our nation!

We need to support especially our president and vice president and pray that God moves through godly voices and advisers!  We need to take our places on the walls of fortification in warfare, prayer and stand our ground.  This is historic and God is showing mercy to us.  We must pray and continue to pray for ALL in authority, God commands us to do so.  If we do not pray for them, we have no right to demand anything.  Do we see this picture?

In Jonah, God told him to go to Nineveh and call all people to repentance.  So instead of obedience, Jonah ran and boarded a ship in the opposite direction.  As we know God sent a great storm to get his attention.  When Jonah finally admitted to all in the boat that he was the cause, he asked that the crew would throw him into the sea.  Once done, the storm stopped.

God wasn’t done with Jonah and the great fish swallowed him up for three days.  And after three days the great fish spit him up onto dry ground.  At this time God again tells Jonah a second time to go prophecy to Nineveh.  I just bet he had fresh revelation after his time in the deep.  God knows how to move and reach his prophets.

And the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the second time, saying…..

“Arise, go unto Nineveh, that great city, and preach unto it the preaching that I bid thee.  So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD.  Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days’ journey.  And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.  So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.  For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.  And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water:  But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.  Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?  And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not,”   Jonah 3:2-10 KJV.

You know what?  GOD changed HIS Mind!  He spared our nation and woke up a lot of sleepers and those who needed to see all their values and rights going away.  I heard and saw so much anxiety in people of God through the campaign.  Many were shaken to their very core for we thought we were loosing our nation to a socialistic state of affairs.

Beyond that shaking, we all went through, we must remember, Our relationship with God and the United States of America is still hanging in the balance and it is all about what the church will do with God’s Mercy.  However, as warrior intercessors our battle has just begun.  We have got to maintain the ground that we gained.

Our historical landslide election proves that God is giving America another chance in repentance, but we cannot continue in the way we did things prior.  It is not the time to relax and lay down your armor and sword, the enemy is not done with this, matter of fact he is scrambling for round two, because he knows his time is short.

People are lulled into complacency after things wear off and the true warfare begins.  People just fade away into sleep hopeful that it will all be changed and it will just go away without any participation with God or his will.  NO WAY!

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land,”   2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV.

History not heeded, will be repeated.

This battle was a major battle and win for the SOUL of our nation.

I see such Civil War spiritually and physically within the nation with lots of agitation and hostile, angry people.  We are watching dramatically, those who are splitting right down the middle to reveal the nations divided heart.

We think we had a historical battle and win?  Let me say this clearly, the battle for this nation is not over!  We must continue to fight in the Spirit realm in prayer and must continue to till Jesus comes!

We, GOD’S people must be able to maintain the ground gained.  We must pray for ALL our elected officials and all who hold offices in government, military and law enforcement etc.  This war is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, powers, rulers of darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places.  WE the Church of the Living GOD Must rise and continue to stand for truth.

Church, beloved of God, if we do not continue to war for the heart of our nation, it can go the way of Nahum’s judgment.  God is giving us another chance to repent nationally as a Church, and it is up to the Church of the living God!  We cannot stop!  We must continue to press into God and pray over this nation and the Church.

The LORD spoke to me and said:

“The Supreme court of Solomon is here!As King Solomon’s wisdom and judgment was displayed over the case of the harlots child, He listened to each harlot, then he asked for the sword to divide the child into.

NOW hear the word of the LORD.  Yes this nation has played the harlot giving out of her resources to foreign nations, playing with idols, paying homage to them with such diabolical seductiveness.  Even the great cities, she has played the harlot by making alliances with crooked leaders, nations and crooked policies.

However, MY church is guilty TOO!  She has played the harlot through apathy and complacency, being so much like the world that no one could tell the difference.

You left Me at the altar, you lied about your belief.  You were embarrassed to be labeled as Mine.  I have watched as you have pushed Me out of homes, schools, even push and eliminate your own God given children, forced and killed out of your own wombs!

You have pushed Me out of your lives even taking credit of the things of MY creation.  Even churches that were once Mine went astray and pushed MY presence out of MY house, rejecting MY prophets I sent to you and over and over you close the door.

I say I AM judging MY churches, don’t be surprised with the type of messenger that comes, for it will never be someone you would choose.  And who knows, it may be the angel of the LORD!

You say, we could never not receive you LORD!  NO?  But you have, by rejecting My sent ones to bring godly order back to MY house.  So many have gone astray from their own devious ways.

Yea, this nation is held up to me in heaven, and the true harlot mother shall cry out for babe to live, for she was proven that she would rather give up the child to live, than to see it die.

The other harlot cared not that the child be split in to and she had no regard for it’s life.  The Wisdom of God speaks, This child shall live and you shall not play the harlot Church against My Name!  You shall be mine as I redeem you Gomer!  You shall once again know MY Love for you as I take you into deeper realms as you yield to Me.

As Hannah gave Samuel to ME, so I say the true mother shall rise and bear much fruit through Me!  I lift up the child and she shall live! Not be split!  The true church of the Living God shall give birth again and again, being redeemed as Rahab the harlot was in direct lineage to Me, says the LORD!  I reveal the heart of the truth Mother; THE CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD!

The heart of this nation is being split, but the woman with the true child shall rise again in this season and rise victorious!  True revival shall break forth through all sorts of upheavals, trouble and agitation and shaking as the earth waits for the manifested sons of the living GOD!  YOU were made for such a time as this!

I will give you endurance and patience to overcome.  Yes, you are equipped from the foundation of the earth!  You will have what it takes to overcome anything and everything even unto death.

I speak to you, REVIVE BELOVED!  You shall live and not die and declare the works of the LORD!”

“Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood before him. And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.  And it came to pass the third day after that I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also: and we were together; there was no stranger with us in the house, save we two in the house.  And this woman’s child died in the night; because she overlaid it.  And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.  And when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I did bear.  And the other woman said, Nay; but the living is my son, and the dead is thy son.  And this said, No; but the dead is thy son, and the living is my son.  Thus they spake before the king.Then said the king, The one saith, This is my son that liveth, and thy son is the dead: and the other saith, Nay; but thy son is the dead, and my son is the living.  And the king said, Bring me a sword.  And they brought a sword before the king.  And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.  Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it.  But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it.  Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.  And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they feared the king: for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him, to do judgment,”   1 Kings 3:16-28 KJV.

As I was praying, a song went through my head and I had to look up the lyrics to be able to understand what I was hearing and what God was saying…..

“I’m walking the floors over you, I can’t sleep a wink that is true.  I’m hoping and praying as my heart breaks right in two, I’m walking the floor over you.  You left me and you went away, you said that you’d be back in just a day, you’ve broken your promise and you’ve left me here alone, I don’t know why you did dear but I do know that your gone, someday, you may be lonesome too, walking the floor is good for you.  Just keep right on walking and it won’t hurt you to cry, remember that I loved you and I will till the day I die.  I’m walking the floor over you.”

(Lyrics to “I’m walking the floors over you,” by Ernest Tubb)

Hear what the sovereign LORD says:

“MY beloved come back, don’t leave Me like that.  I seek your first love relationship, Intimacy with me.  I want MY time with you alone…

Come away..  Come away with Me…  We were meant to live this close, there is no striving in my arms.  You are effortlessly held as you yield control to Me, as you will know MY security.  Safe in MY unchanging hand.”

Godly Agendas

This is for the life or death of our nation! We need end time outpouring of revival so harvest comes! The LORD is going to come the way he left. Will we be ready for his return?

“For surely GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets,”   Amos 3:7 KJV.

To the Church of the living God, the remnant of God!  Listen!  Just because the reprieve and victory in our American elections doesn’t mean God is pleased; especially if we return to our previous way of thinking and doing things prior to the election.

We are chosen to be proactive and seek the will of the Father in all of this, everyday. We have been chosen for such a time as this.

Just like Queen Esther, had she not heeded the word from Mordecai and reacted and agreed to go before the king on her behalf, deliverance would have eventually come, but at what cost?

She agreed and asked for all the Jews to fast and pray three days before she approached the king, which was unlawful by death, without invitation of the king.  Evil forces were at work to destroy Israel even in captivity.

The wicked Haman planned total annihilation of the Jews even built a gallows meant to hang Mordecai once his deeds were done.  However, the king knew nothing of Haman’s plot and once learned from his wife after a dinner; (after she and all the Jews fasted and prayed)

The King had Haman arrested and he was hanged on the very gallows he built for Mordecai.  Haman’s whole family was put to death.  God had a people in the midst of another people.  Because Esther heard the threat of annihilation and obeyed in this midst of facing death; she and God’s people were spared. ***Read Esther.

Just like America is divided, God has a people.  We must fast and pray that His Kingdom comes and his will be done.  God will give us victory if we will fight for the soul of the beloved remnant church.  We have been grafted into the vine, and we are His people!

Seriously, we are called to do spiritual warfare, not just pray for me, myself and I.  We, the church really need to come together and intercede for the foundation of the heart of this nation.  Not only our prayer, but group prayer and intercession, warfare and fasting should intensify regularly.

This is for the life or death of our nation!  We need end time outpouring of revival so harvest comes!  The LORD is going to come the way he left. Will we be ready for his return?

Satan is not wasting time.  The enemy is planning many things to seek to destroy this great nation that was founded by God and godly people.  There is so much warfare that is going on over the soul of this nation.  People were awakened as they finally saw what they would loose if they didn’t pray and vote.

We thank God He gave “The Church” another chance.  I pray that the LORD Jesus puts upon people to come together for the healing of our nation and for the church.

In the election, do we the church realize how close we came to becoming a socialistic, atheistic and progressive society?

While in prayer, I saw the nation of America, including all of Alaska, Hawaii and all territories, I saw in this vision a continuation very much like the word I wrote prior to this one:  “The Soul of our Nation.”  Or you can find that article below in my writings archive here:  ‘Articles by Sherry Mackey‘.

The outward wound to our nation was jagged and very uneven, looking infectious.  Then I began to look closer.  Not only did I see the heart of the nation split, I saw all sorts of agitations, violence, revenge and all types of indicators that there is a type of civil war in our nation and in the church.

It’s a WAR for this nation.  It’s a WAR for the Church, a spiritual warfare.  How the church goes will be how the nation goes.  In the vision as I looked deeper, I saw a very jagged separation down the heart of the nation.

God is not elated by the condition of our nation, whether it is Republican or Democrat. He is giving “THE CHURCH” another chance to get it right.  His desire is that this nation founded by God for the people and by the people, will rise up and govern this people for end time harvest to come through a mighty historic revival, unlike history has ever seen, nor will ever see again.

Beyond the national scope, vision and jagged wound, I saw a very deeper heart issue.  I knew that something deeper was going on.  With much more foundational spiritual emphasis to the heart of God and the true church.  God gave us a reprieve, but what we do with it matters for the soul and for the reaping of this nation.

We are that generation and we have been sent for HIS purpose.  We are equipped and ready.  It is time for judgment in the house of God.  It is time to rise and shine!  It is time to engage the battle.  God has given us what we need, now it is up to us in prayer and actions.

I then was able to zoom in and as God allowed me to look deeper, I saw a much greater heart bursting within our nation.  I saw into the true heart, the nation that was founded by God himself.

In this vision I saw a big heart that had been stabbed and looked jagged looking.  This was no cut of a surgeon, but a act of hatred and persecution.  Wounded in the house of friends.  Cut open like no surgeon would, but it was ripped and stabbed with no remedy.  The remedy will come when someone prays.

Revival cannot come until someone prays.  Paul Yonggi Cho in Korea has a prayer mountain and God has moved mightily through that ministry and brought major change.  Prayer changes things!

Some have given up and see no reason to change or pray as they say America is modern day Babylon.  So that mindset says, there is no use to pray or make a difference because it is already here.

Remember Esther when she made a difference by fasting and praying for her nation in captivity?

I continue to hear that this nation is hanging in the balance, and yes even though we are a minority, God hears us and watches over His Word to perform it.

Yes, Jesus is coming soon and we are to be ready but that doesn’t mean to camp out doing nothing.  Instead, He wants us to occupy till he comes!  That is a militant term and his desire for us is to continue to fill the earth with His Word, Power and demonstrations of the Holy Ghost!
