A Time Such as This

Morning my friends..
Sometimes the Lord will wake me in the night to visit with him... just a little private time between friends. As previously mentioned, I do write down some of the things we talk about. Often he tells me "to tell my people".. other times they are just quiet urgings between us.
One such time 16 years ago, he gave me a word to share at a later time. As in the book of Esther, it was to be  saved for a ...time such as this. Therefore I will share the following for those who have ears to hear.

As you read this, think back over the last 16 years and perhaps you will understand why you have been through such hard times. Preparation and training for what is ahead usually is not understood as you are going through it. Normally it is not until the training period is passed that your spirit understands that what it has gone through was for "A time such as this."

Tidbits from the Master
January, 2000, 3:00 AM

Samuel grew and the Lord was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground. And I will seal your lips with the coals of fire..and the words you speak will be my words. I will do this for the sake of my people who are sleeping.
As the lightning rips from the sky and touches the ground, those who are near and hear, will be astounded at the power and truth I have saved for the hidden army of the last days church.
They will be a people who have suffered for my sake and been tried by fire. They will be a people who will stand when everyone around them is bending like trees with shallow roots.
Be it known here and now that in the natural, this will not be a pretty time; but it will be a mighty time...for my kingdom will be filled with people who are hearty.  It will be filled with people who have tasted victory and defeat...and know the difference.
"For I am with you always. " This will have a new meaning in the days to come. Be still and know that I  am God...the same yesterday, today and forever.
I will do a work in your day that will astound and amaze all who see it. It will truly amaze those who have eyes to see and those who have ears to hear.
Up to this time the people have cried..."Lord, you said you would, but I have not seen it." But I tell you the truth, my people will be bewildered no more, because I the Lord have come to set the record straight.
My word is Truth. I will not lie, neither will I withhold my word from the obedient, end times church. They are being set into place...each one in accordance with their purpose.
I will bring about the unity that is needed, but not in the way you might think. Think it not strange that I choose to perform my works quietly...in the hearts of my warriors first. For have I not said, my weapons are not carnal but spiritual.
Remember I am the Lord your God. I will never leave you or forsake you. I will lead you into the paths of righteousness...but you must be prepared to follow. They will not look like paths you will want to enter.
But my people will have a prepared heart and be able to trust me as I lead them into battle.
