You Were Born For A Time Such As This...



Many in the Body of Christ (not just those in the church), have noticed a spike in trails, tribulations and testing in the past month or two. Many are battling in their homes, on their jobs, in marriages, with their children, in their communities, and even within the church. We're seeing an increase in persecution that in some cases have come from the very ones that we break bread with. This has pushed many of us further into our prayer closets, deeper into worship, and even inspired more of us to fast.

So what is happening? Even I found myself in a sabbatical during the month of August, asking the Lord what in the world was going on in the spirit realm. A little over a week ago, the Spirit of the Lord fell heavy on me in the bathroom, and He began speaking to me. This is what He said;

"I am allowing my children to go through the fire; the refining fire. I am removing the gray areas, and those who dwell in it. The time of separation is at hand; the separation from the wheat and the tares, the sheep and the goats, the wise from the foolish. Those who embrace my refining fire will be moved to the light. But those who resist will be placed in the darkness. I AM the consuming fire, says The Lord of Hosts. Either you are for me, or you are against me. Those who are tried and refined as gold and silver, will give birth in the new season; the season of my holy fire."

We are living in perilous times saints. Things are not going to get better; they will continue to get worst. But we, as the Body of Christ have been chosen for a time such as this. Which means that we are equipped with what it takes to shine through the darkness. You will continue see people fall away. These people may even be the very ones that you love the most. But even then, you cannot allow yourself to be distracted. Peter walked on water, until he allowed what was happening around him to distract him, and then he instantly began to sink. We must not take our eyes off of Christ NO MATTER WHAT! The Spirit of the Lord is hovering; and He is trying hearts to see who will stand no matter what the circumstances.

The time is coming, and behold, is here now, when you will be locked in spiritually. This is why the Lord is testing hearts and trying by fire. In Revelation 22:10-12, the Lord confirms this time by saying,

 "Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand. He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; and he who is holy, let him be holy still. And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work."

Allow the Lord to purge you. I know it hurts, but it is better to loose everything in this dimension, space and time, to gain everything in the next. Because in the next life; which is eternity, no one can ever take it away from you. No moths or rust can touch it. And there will be no more pain, or sorrow, death or struggle. And He will wipe away the tears from every eye.

Be Encouraged!

  1. Thanks you, Mena, for posting this. I woke up in tears this morning ...actually sick to my stomach with fear and concern of what I know is about to take place in this country. I have been trying to prepare food, etc. but just do NOT have the money to buy the stuff I need! I cannot make my husband understand what is going on...he will NOT heed the warnings that are taking place all around us! I prayed this morning in tears to Jesus ... asking if I was DOOMED? Am I doomed to suffer ... and my son and husband? I pleaded with Elohim to PLEASE help me. Only HE can touch my husband in his heart that I cannot. He is a VERY hard worker ... working 3 jobs and we can still hardly make ends meet! (We are WAY in debt with doctor bills) We have a small IRA and I told him that he is going to lose every cent if he doesn't cash it in and buy some silver and gold ... and maybe give me some money to stock up on food...But he won't listen. He thinks that Jesus is gonna rapture the church out of here before anything happens to us. And I sincerely hope that he is RIGHT! But America is DOOMED! And we don't have a guarantee of a rapture BEFORE we are taken over!
    Mena ... Please pray for me and my family. I guess I'm just feeling doomed and defeated this morning. Thanks for the encouragement... In Christ ... Carolyn in Virginia

    1. (hum first reply disappeared). Anyway, Sister; don't get discouraged. do what I do; each time at the store buy just a few extra cans of soup, spam, etc., bags of rice, beans, etc. After a while it will add up. Put all this extra in with preps for use when truly needed. This morning, I'm drying over ripe bananas I got at the store for 10 cents a pound in my over to be used later as snacks when the food gets low. God will honor every effort you make and you will see it grow. God bless you sister and don't get discouraged.

  3. Amen! The Holy Spirit in me confirms that word as true. Thank you God for your refining fire. Your ways are always right.

    Mena your ministry and commitment to serving the Lord are such a blessing to me. I am thankful I heard you on TruNews.

  5. Amen Mena! Saints, always dress appropriately, putting on the Full Armor of God, and Stand Firm knowing that our God is faithful. Be ready and with ears to hear, what the Holy Spirit is saying.
    And of course listen for the three important sounds (the shout, the voice, the trumpet) 1 Thess 4:16-17

  6. I don't mind if the Rapture isn't first but I just want the Lord to fill me with His Spirit so I can go out and minister to all the scared people once it all goes down. So many people don't have a clue. I ask if anyone knows about the events converging this month but most people don't even know what I am talking about. We are going to need to be strong because we are here for the Harvest until He does call us home.

  7. This is so true. I was laid off from my job on Wednesday but I know that GOd is in control and I have been given Psalms 91 as an assurance that He will protect me to HIS will not mine. Praise the Lord Almighty for His grace and His sufficiency for me. Come quickly Lord Jesus.

  8. I recognize that what I have been experiencing since August 10th was spiritual warfare because my children have been behaving so out of character that it as become a distraction. While asleep, I heard the audible voice of an angel call from Heaven "who will pray?!" With all my heart I want to continue to answer that call of prophetic intercession. But because of the attack it has been a difficult press as I am fatigued (mentally, physically, spiritually). I too wondered what was going on because I had been at a level of great peace and intimacy with Jesus. I know that warfare increases around the time of the High Holy Days. I pray that the Lord will find me faithful, that my strength will be renewed and my peace return. My heart's cry is Jesus, You are my destiny, my goal, my reward - to be with You eternally. Where else can I go? Who else can I turn to? What is worth more than eternity with You? Nothing....no one. I need You. I don't care what I lose, what I must give up, how hot the refiner's fire becomes, I MUST have Him...He is my life, life does not exist outside of Him. No matter what happens saints, hold on! Do not fear! Trust in Jesus. Remember Romans 8:18. Father, kill whatever needs to be killed in me so that I might be ready, fit for my Beloved. Let me not be self-deceived, help me to keep a repentant heart. Wash me, search me, purge me. Fill me with Your love and help me to minister to others out of the well of Your love for them. Amen.
