(The Fear of the Lord is the Beginning of Knowledge)
This is what the Sovereign Lord says,
“Overfamiliarity has bred contempt. In these last generations, there has been a cataclysmic shift in the attitude of many
towards My Holy Spirit. Many have become impertinent and disobedient and habitually rationalise (justify by plausible reasoning)
the truth of My Word, and the leadings of My Holy Spirit and therefore grieve Him immensely. Far too many operate independently
of Him in My name and this will not be tolerated, as I prepare to pour out My Spirit in greater abundance in these last generations.
“Therefore, greater persecution will also arise, so it is expedient at this time that I call forth My prophets from their hidden
places to thunder out My message of warning. Do not be deceived, a time is coming when those who ignore My Holy Spirit will do
so at their own peril, because the battle will become so fierce at times, that many who have chosen not to be one with Him are
not one with Us (Father and Son). Yet, for your encouragement, I would remind you that you are indeed one of the most privileged
generations, if you embrace Him wholeheartedly and My Word of truth.
“Many in this generation enjoyed singing the words of the song, “In Heavenly armour.” Truly I say to you, that the end-time battle
truly does belong to the Lord, and those who have chosen not to be one with My Holy Spirit will not stand, but fall when the battle
is at its fiercest.
“I am a holy God, a Consuming Fire, so do not be deceived into thinking – as some have been taught – that you can approach Me as your
mate or buddy. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, and only those with clean hands and a pure heart can ascend the
hill of the Lord, and stand in the holy place. For without holiness, no one will see Me.”
