BROTHERS, I GOT THIS LAST NIGHT, AND HAVE BEEN MOVED BY GODLY FEAR SINCE THEN TO ACT UPON THIS WORD. I ASK YOU TO PLEASE READ THIS WORD WRITTEN BY PASTOR DAVID WILKERSON AS HE RECEIVED IT FROM THE LORD, DATED MARCH 7 2009. The full text is below, if you prefer you may read it on his website at: www.worldchallenge.org  Lord bless you and keep you! From Peru, Pastor Adam

AN URGENT MESSAGE: by David Wilkerson

I am compelled by the Holy Spirit to send out an urgent message to all on our mailing list, and to friends and to bishops we have met all over the world.

AN EARTH-SHATTERING CALAMITY IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. IT IS GOING TO BE SO FRIGHTENING, WE ARE ALL GOING TO TREMBLE — EVEN THE GODLIEST AMONG US.

For ten years I have been warning about a thousand fires coming to New York City. It will engulf the whole megaplex, including areas of New Jersey and Connecticut. Major cities all across America will experience riots and blazing fires — such as we saw in Watts, Los Angeles, years ago.

There will be riots and fires in cities worldwide. There will be looting — including Times Square, New York City. What we are experiencing now is not a recession, not even a depression. We are under God’s wrath. In Psalm 11 it is written,

"If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?" (v. 3).

God is judging the raging sins of America and the nations. He is destroying the secular foundations.

The prophet Jeremiah pleaded with wicked Israel, "God is fashioning a calamity against you and devising a plan against you. Oh, turn back each of you from your evil way, and reform your ways and deeds. But they will say, It’s hopeless! For we are going to follow our own plans, and each of us will act according to the stubbornness of his evil heart" (Jeremiah 18:11–12).

In Psalm 11:6, David warns, "Upon the wicked he will rain snares (coals of fire)…fire…burning wind…will be the portion of their cup." Why? David answered, "Because the Lord is righteous" (v. 7). This is a righteous judgment — just as in the judgments of Sodom and in Noah’s generation.

WHAT SHALL THE RIGHTEOUS DO? WHAT ABOUT GOD’S PEOPLE?

First, I give you a practical word I received for my own direction. If possible lay in store a thirty-day supply of non-perishable food, toiletries and other essentials. In major cities, grocery stores are emptied in an hour at the sign of an impending disaster.

As for our spiritual reaction, we have but two options. This is outlined in Psalm 11. We "flee like a bird to a mountain." Or, as David says, "He fixed his eyes on the Lord on his throne in heaven — his eyes beholding, his eyelids testing the sons of men" (v. 4). "In the Lord I take refuge" (v. 1).

I will say to my soul: No need to run…no need to hide. This is God’s righteous work. I will behold our Lord on his throne, with his eye of tender, loving kindness watching over every step I take — trusting that he will deliver his people even through floods, fires, calamities, tests, trials of all kinds.

Note: I do not know when these things will come to pass, but I know it is not far off. I have unburdened my soul to you. Do with the message as you choose.

God bless and keep you.

In Christ,

DAVID WILKERSON

Thanks for this. I too read it and was gripped by a Godly fear. I think some others on this site have also circulated it. Brother Wilkenson has also added a further word since then. One of them is this:

Monday, March 9, 2009 A Further Word
“If the foundations be destroyed, what shall the righteous do?”

Recently I felt compelled to send out an URGENT message warning of an impending great calamity — such that will cause even God’s elect to tremble.

One Bishop asked, “Is there no further word: How should the righteous respond to such a word?”

I can only answer by sharing what the Holy Spirit is speaking to my own heart and what I am to do. I shared that I was led in a practical way to lay aside a month’s supply of food — because I have witnessed the panic in the wake of terrorism. That has to be a personal word for every individual.

This is what I hear the Holy Spirit speaking to my heart concerning my own spiritual response to impending calamity. It is simply this —STAND STILL AND SEE THE SALVATION OF THE LORD.

“And Moses said to the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will show you today…The Lord shall fight for you, and you shall hold your peace” (Exodus 14:13-14).

This is the attitude of faith in the face of calamity. What could Israel do on the brink of the Red Sea? Pharaoh’s army is pressing in, mountains are on both sides, and there is an impossible sea ahead. The flesh cries, “Do something!”

The flesh cries hopelessness. Can God’s people dry up the sea? Level a mountain? Fight a great army without having weapons? They are in what appears to be a dreadful, frightening situation. God’s people tremble — and in this hour of trembling comes a word from God. In essence:

“Stand still. Fear not. This is the hour of salvation. You are going to witness the pulling down of the foundations of a world power. But in the same hour, I will fight for you. Hold your peace — be still and see my works.”

Beloved, my warning is just one voice among many who are saying the same thing. We may all tremble for a season, but those who truly know God’s Word will be quickly comforted by the Holy Spirit. We will be baptized with a great peace — a supernatural quietness — which will be a tremendous witness to the fearful multitudes.

In Christ,

David Wilkerson

I've known about this and have warned many but many are just laughing it off. I will say this though. To lay things in store is not trusting God. It is more likely to make you a target. ll you need is for one person to know that you have things in store (especially a family member) and when the doodoo hits the fan this person will sing like a canary. Just imagine a bunch of hungry people looking for a place to get food from. We are going to have to tighten our belts and trust God to provide for our needs as he did for the children of Israel in the wilderness for 40 years.

However brother, you must look in the book of Acts when a prophet proclaimed a famine that would come to all the world...which came to pass. The bible says that the brothers each determined to send aid to the poor saints in Jerusalem each according to his ability. In other words, they were responding to the prophetic word given. Joseph too was given a propehtic word, and the Lord told him to set aside 20% of the food grown in each of the 7 years of plenty. Could the Lord have just supplied for his people as he did with the manna in the wilderness? Of course, He is God, but that is not how He choose to supply.  And was not Noah also shown things to come, and at the same time the Lord told him to take into the ark food for himself and the animals? In this case, Pastor David was given not just the word of what is to come but a practical application too: set aside a 30-day supply of food. I for one will heed the word given, because I do trust God. Proverbs too makes mention of the ant laying up for winter...Yes, there are miracles, but there are also the words of wisdom that tell you to set some aside.

Pastor David Wilkerson says he can only speak to what God has told him to do in preparation and further that we each need to seek God's direction in what we are to do. Makes sense to me, Amen? And a wise man prepares for what he knows is coming. Consider the ant as in the bible and all the other passages that tell us to prepare..this is common sense. We can still trust in the Lord at the same time we do what we can to prepare. I believe as Pastor Alan Cairns said in his video message (to be found on YouTube) that we saints should be prepared and we should be looking for ways to help the saints that will need it when the time comes. I still have to ask God how to prepare me. God bless you all as you consider.

Amen. Our prayer should be for the Lord to show us how each of us should respond. Pastor Gary Wilkerson touches on that on his response to the Urgent Message. For some, that just might be laying aside a 30-day suppply of food, for others that might be trusting God for manna each day. The Lord put blankets on my heart, and we are praying about how and what else to prepare. I will take a look at the video by pastor Alan Cairns (new to me!). Thank you! Bless you all!
