For those of you who
don't know me I have a way of communicating with the Holy Spirit. I always know
when God is trying to tell me something I feel it with in my heart and then I
turned to the Bible. I keep the Bible right where I sit so I'm always able to
grab it if I feel an urge or if that the Lord is trying to tell me something.
This
morning after watching all the news about the corona virus I had a notion the
Lord wanted to tell me something. It seems this virus is spreading quite
rapidly in the US and I felt God had a point to make about it. Therefore I'm
going to just read the verses he gave me and therefore let you receive the
message that I heard loud and clear.
James 5:1-9
1)
Go now you rich man
weep and howl for your miseries is that shall come up on you.
2)
Your riches are
corrupted and your garments are moth eaten.
3)
Your gold and silver
is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat
your flesh as it were fire. You have heaped Treasures together for the last
days.
4)
Behold the hire of the
laborers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud,
crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of a
lord of Sabbath.
5)
You have lived in
pleasure on the Earth and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts as in the
days of Slaughter.
6)
Ye have condemned and
killed the just; and he doth not resist you.
7) Be patient therefore brethren unto the coming
of the Lord. Behold the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the Earth,
and hath long patience for it until he receive the early and the latter
rain.
8) Be ye also patient;
stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.
9) Grudge not against one another
brethren lest ye be condemned: behold the judge stand before the door.
This is the
message that I am putting out there (James 5:1-9) and I want everybody to pay
attention closely. The first thing that comes to mind is the way we have
treated Mexicans in this country. We have used Mexican migrant workers since
the dawn of the American Farm industry. Now we take their children away from
them and put them in cages. Migrant workers and their children treated like
common trash. Their children left to die in cages. Did you really think it
wouldn't come back to haunt us?
Most Mexicans are very holy people.
Let's get it straight, they are God's people and when you afflicted them you
have attacked the children of the most high. These are egregious
crimes we have
done to the Mexican migrant worker and I fear we may be paying the price in
this epidemic. I wish I could say it was just that but I'm afraid the wound is
much deeper than we realize: I will continue on.
As Americans
we have lived in a global economy, it has become a way of life. Weather we know
it or not we have partaken in all kinds of global atrocities. A lot of our
food, electronics, and other goods come from places like China (or other third
world countries). These countries treat their people horribly, and we've
encourage it by buying there goods.
There has
been land grabbing, slave labor, and low wage pay; (so low that they have to
leave their children because they can't afford them), imagine living like that?
Likewise they have labor prison camps, where they house and use those who will
not confirm to their ways (Concentration camps). They have gone so far as to
even harvest human organs from these labor camps. It's real, look it up!
This
treatment of those people is horrific beyond usury and it is a great sin. I
think that sin could follow the goods that they make. Likewise the US has
brought in farm workers from the other countries. To work for low wages; dirt
jobs Americas won't do themselves. We bring them in every year to pick crops,
clean hotel rooms, do dishes and other odd jobs.
They get
paid way below minimum wage, and God forbid if they are illegal’s because then
they will do real slave labor. These facts are very real and have put upon the
back of all Americans the curse of usury, slavery and oppression. That
suffering was bestowed on them while making goods for the US, so we could be
comfortable.
Truly Americans
are in a difficult position when buying these goods from around the world. I
suggest pleading the blood of Christ over everything you buy. The thing is we
live in a world that is been set up in the way it has and many of us have no
choice now but to purchase these items from China. But praying over them and
praying for them, his key to this problem.
This is
just touching base upon that one aspect of our sin. We know as Americans we are
heavily weighed down and sin across the board. We are guilty of "the Seven
Deadly Sins"; the scales have tipped so far down that we've hit the
bottom. We have taken advantage of situations and of every opportunity to benefit
ourselves. No matter what the situation is, money and power seem to win the
day.
America's
take care of them and that's all they care about. I go so far to say as we are
pretty selfish, as a nation. As far as our lowly practices in this nation
(porno’s, drug addiction, alcoholisms, etc.) we have become despicable but now
we're going to face the reality of it are deeds and so to come the punishments.
This
message came to me from the Bible opening right to this page. This is how the
Lord speaks to me; he puts the idea in my heart and then he uses the Bible to
tell me exactly the words he wants me to know.
Think
about what it says. It talks to us storing food away for the end of days. It
talks about accountability. We store food away but are we planning on sharing
it with our brothers and sisters in Christ? Will we share what we
have? Or do we just plan to shoot those who come seeking a meal in the
apocalypse? Pay attention, for God is listening! In what world would Jesus tell
you, not to share what you stored away?
Judgment
has been held back for a long time now and I think we've tipped the scales in
the wrong direction. So now that we've thrown the migrant workers and their
children into cages. I believe we have encouraged, God's Wrath to come forth.
Wake up and prepare but let me tell you something repentance is going to be
needed if we going to survive this judgment day.
The more
God watches us prepare for the end times and plan to take care of ourselves
alone; the more enraged, he will become. To be a part of the Christian Church
is to be a part of a body. You don't just take care of the head of the body,
but the arms and the legs as well. You can't call yourself Christian if you’re
just going to take care of yourself and your family, even sinners do
that!
If your
family is a part of the body of Christ, you then take care of other Christians
no matter their color (brown, yellow, black or white). If they believe in Jesus
then they are part of the Christian Church. If you are a Christian then you are
of the same body, as all other Christians. Repent for your hording thoughts and
selfish ideas, he is at the door and judgment is at hand.
