WORD FOR 2012 by EJ Ouellette

WORD FOR 2012 by EJ Ouellette

This coming year expect these 10 predictions.

1. Collapse of the manufacturing sector in the US.
2. Collapse of the housing market in the US over the winter.
3. Extreme job loss
4. Large churches losing their properties. (Unable to pay their debts due to huge job losses)
5. Extreme rioting in large cites and police using extreme force.
6. Human rights violations being taken to a new level by the government.
7. Another stock market crash by the end of 2012.
8. Suicide rates skyrocket as jobless lose hope and their homes.
9. The government will use extreme measures to make President Obama look good before the election so he gets re-elected.
10.  Catastrophes in the food supply.

Of course all of this could have been prevented by the simple act of repentance. Its would be easier to fly to the moon on a skateboard than to convince an American to repent of anything. I had someone recently accuse me of attacking the US with my prophecies. I was shocked when they said it. I thought it’s about the same as telling Abraham to stop speaking against Sodom and Gomorrah.
When I look at the US today all I see is the Titanic. Its New Years Eve and everyone is on the deck partying completely oblivious to the fact the ship is tilted and going down.


LUKE18:9
The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector
 9 To some who were confident of their own righteousness and looked down on everyone else, Jesus told this parable: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people—robbers, evildoers, adulterers—or even like this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.’
   13 “But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’
   14 “I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For all those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

The Opening of the Sheath by Arthur Eedle The Prophetic Telegraph

The Opening of the Sheath
by Arthur Eedle The Prophetic Telegraph

From the book by George Ritchie, entitled"Return from Tomorrow. (1978. Kingsway Publications.)  In 1943 Ritchie was serving in the army as a young man, and at Christmas time he died of double lobar pneumonia. But nine minutes later, armed with an unforgettable experience of eternity, he returned from the dead. He had walked and talked with Jesus through a series of teaching experiences, some of which were terrifying, others enthralling. In 1978, as a practising psychiatrist, he finally, and somewhat reluctantly, put pen to paper to tell the world of his adventure during those nine minutes. The following extract relates specifically to his experience in a bar, where he witnessed the opening of the sheath.

"Gradually I began to notice something else. All of the living people we were watching were surrounded by a faint luminous glow, almost like an electrical field over the surface of their bodies This luminosity moved as they moved, like a second skin made out of pale, scarcely visible light.
At first I thought it must be reflected brightness from the Person at my side. But the buildings we entered, gave off no reflection, neither did inanimate objects. And then I realized that the non-physical beings didnt either. My own unsolid body, I now saw, was without this glowing sheath.
At this point the Light drew me inside a dingy bar and grill near what looked like a large naval base. A crowd of people, many of them sailors, lined the bar three deep, while others jammed wooden booths along the wall. Though a few were drinking beer, most of them seemed to be belting whiskies as fast as the two perspiring bartenders could pour them.

Then I noticed a striking thing. A number of the men standing at the bar seemed unable to lift their drinks to their lips. Over and over I watched them clutch at their shot glasses, hands passing through the solid tumblers, through the heavy wooden counter top, through the very arms and bodies of the drinkers around them.

And these men, every one of them, lacked the aureole of light that surrounded the others.

Then, the cocoon of light must be a property of physical bodies only. The dead, we who had lost our solidness, had lost this "second skin" as well. And it was obvious that these living people, the light-surrounded ones, the ones actually drinking, talking, jostling each other, could neither see the desperately thirsty disembodied beings among them, nor feel their frantic pushing to get at those glasses. (Though it was also clear to me, watching, that the non-solid people could both see and hear each other. Furious quarrels were constantly breaking out among them over glasses that none could actually get to his lips.)

I thought I had seen heavy drinking at fraternity parties inRichmondbut the way civilians and servicemen at this bar were going at it beat everything. I watched one young sailor rise unsteadily from a stool, take two or three steps, and sag heavily to the floor. Two of his buddies stooped down and started dragging him away from the crush.

But that was not what I was looking at. I was staring in amazement as the bright cocoon around the unconscious sailor simply opened up. It parted at the very crown of his head and began peeling away from his head, his shoulders. Instantly, quicker than Id ever seen anyone move, one of the insubstantial beings that had been standing near him at the bar was on top of him. He had been hovering like a thirsty shadow at the sailors side, greedily following every swallow the young man made. Now he seemed to spring at him like a beast of prey.

In the next instant, to my utter mystification, the springing figure had vanished. It all happened even before the two men had dragged their unconscious load from under the feet of those at the bar. One minute Id distinctly seen two individuals; by the time they propped the sailor against the wall, there was only one.

Twice more, as I stared, stupefied, the identical scene was repeated. A man passed out, a crack swiftly opened in the aureole round him, one of the non-solid people vanished as he hurled himself at that opening, almost as if he had scrambled inside the other man.

Was that covering of light some kind of shield, then? Was it a protection against . . against disembodied beings like myself? Presumably these substance-less creatures had once had solid bodies, as I myself had had. Suppose that when they had been in these bodies they had developed a dependence on alcohol that went beyond the physical. That became mental. Spiritual, even. Then when they lost that body, except when they could briefly take possession of another one, they would be cut off . . . from the thing they could never stop craving."

The impact of this account will be left to my readers. In the next bulletin I'll take the study one step further, because Ritchie's experience was not the only case on record. There is no way in which the experiences Ritchie had could be attributed to hallucination (which dead people don't have) or the influence of drugs. Therefore the facts must be faced, and an understanding gained, rather than brushing the whole thing under the carpet because it doesn't fit some preconceived theology.

REBUKING THE PASTOR IN THE SILVER SUIT

Dream April 1998

Dreamt I was at some very large Church in the US. Some older guy in a grey suit was getting ready to preach some message. He seemed somewhat agitated. The church was dark and very posh. I saw 6 microphones on the stage. Suddenly a big flat screen TV dropped down from nowhere and a scene began to play out. I saw this same pastor in a room with other pastors all sitting around. The older one in the silver suit seemed to have leadership over the others. He then went over and abused his power over one of the younger interns and forced him to perform sexual acts with him. I counted how many were in the room and there were 13 in total. After, the Pastor in the grey suit was waiting to get up on stage and for the show to start (service). Suddenly I felt the anger of God burn against this sexual deviant and I got scared. I was drawn again to the microphones and counted them. There were six in total. I knew God wanted me to rebuke him but I had to wait for some reason.

Six months later I was compelled to go down to Virginia were I was invited to a local ministerial meeting in Lexington. A local pastor friend had invited me and again I felt compelled to go. We went into a large room and we all sat around in a circle. It seemed very familiar to me but I just ignored it and sat listening to the meeting. Someone arrived a few minutes late. It was the older man in the grey suit from my dream six months before. I was stunned when I saw him and began to count the occupants in the room. There were 13 just like my dream. My palms began to sweat and I dried them on my jeans. At the end of the meeting I spoke up. I didn’t want to center the guy out so I phrased my statement carefully. This is what I spoke “There is a man here who is a leader of a large assembly and is using his power to oppress and take advantage of pastors under him”! To my left I saw a young pastor crawl up into fetal position and I swear he almost started sucking his thumb. I recognized him from my dream as the one who was performing sexual acts on the corrupt minister. The guy in the grey suit started acting very nervously and was making a beeline for the door when I added “The Lord has sent me 500 miles this day to warn you. Unless you repent this is your last chance before His judgment falls”

You could have heard a pin drop in the place. No one was speaking and they were all just staring at me. I decided to break the ice a bit and spoke to my friend who brought me in his van. “Did you leave the van running I think I smell tar and feathers cooking up in the next room” Everyone chuckled nervously and we made our way out the door.

I thought we made it out first but someone several others were already outside and they actually wanted to meet me. I shook some shocked Baptist’s hands that day that I will never forget that meeting as long as they live.

I never heard what happened to that man in the silver suit but as the years went by I had many more such meetings and discovered that all of the ministers I rebuked died shortly after, usually not first without losing everything.  EJ Ouellette

MEETING MY BODYGUARD ANGEL from 2003 EJ Ouellette

I was getting ready to go to California and the night before I left I had this very vivid dream.
Dream June 2003
I dreamed I was driving my car and was somewhere in Nevada. In the seat beside me was a very large angel. He seemed big in the car but I didn’t realize how big until we stopped and we got out. We were near the Hoover dam and I was looking north. The top of his shoulders was a little higher than the top of my head. He was very muscular and had a stern face. He never looked at me but looked off in the distance. He spoke to me “I walked with Enoch when he was on the earth and I also walked with Sadhu Sundar Singh when he walked on the earth. When their time was finished here on earth I took them home and they never tasted death”.
I knew when he said that, that he meant he would be with me to protect me until my time was done and that he would also take me home without tasting death like Enoch and Elijah. God had told me in the past during prayer times and even through a friend before he died but this was the first time he confirmed it in a big way.
Later when I got back to Canada I knew why he sent this angel to encourage me. An unbelievable amount of persecution came to me forcing me to move away from my town.

DREAM OF AN ASTEROID HEADED TOWARDS EARTH sept2008 EJ Ouellette

Dream Sept 2008
I dreamt someone came and picked me up from earth and took me at a high rate of speed into space. I was flying at a phenomenal rate. I just kept looking back at earth, which was slowly disappearing in the darkness of space. I turned around as we started to slow down and stop. I saw a giant asteroid hurling towards earth. There was no tail just a giant looking rock slowly turning. It looked like a giant potato. It looked as if it was about 11/2 times as long as it was wide. We followed it along as it was hurling towards earth as it slowly turned like it was on some giant rotisserie, I could see earth n the distance and knew that it was headed straight towards earth, I though I might be able to redirect it so I kicked it with my foot but obviously it did not respond to my panic. As the earth closed it I could see it was going to fall into the Atlantic ocean somewhere just east of Virginia. I awoke at the point.

Later that day I decided to Google my revelation and low and behold there it was. There is indeed a giant asteroid headed toward earth. It is 11/2 miles long and a mile wide and the article said, it looks like a giant potato. If I recall its supposed to hit around the end of 2012. I was immediately reminded of the scripture in revelation.


Revelation 18:21
New International Version (NIV)
The Finality of Babylon’s Doom
21 Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea, and said:
“With such violence
the great city of Babylon will be thrown down,
never to be found again.

THE TIME OF ELIJAH –by EJ Ouellette

Today I was thinking about something someone said to me recently regarding the prophets. If I weren’t quite so tired at the time I would've responded immediately. He mentioned that in the New Testament the prophets were admonished and told that when they were traveling they should only stay in a home for one day. Since we live in a time today when the church completely out of balance this rule couldn't possibly apply. For one thing today's church has thrown out all of the prophets and has rejected the order that Jesus himself set down. The church was responsible to provide for the prophets and the apostles and back before Jesus’ time the rules still applied. Often the prophets lived right at the Temple and the people, (through the temple) provided for them. During the time of Elijah, which seems to be glorious in most people's minds was in actuality a time of great rebellion. The spirit of Jezebel had basically taken over the church and the prophet Elijah was called in to kill the prophets of Baal and eventually end the rebellion. During the time of great famine the Temple did not look after Elijah but in fact God brought the widow to his aid where he where he stayed during this time. Although Lord was the ultimate provider the widow of course gave him a room in the house and he was cared for. In today's time Elijah would have been rebuked and told he should go pump gas or clean windows or be a greeter at Wal-Mart. In fact Elijah was not affected by what men thought but continued on doing God's will whatever that may be. The widow looked after him the entire time that the church failed and eventually Elijah was just taken into heaven. The widow of course would receive a great reward (In heaven).
As you can see the similarities between Elijah’s time now is pretty much the same. We are clearly in the time of Elijah simply because you can see the spirit of Jezebel has taken over the church. Now we must see the end of Jezebel in the church. In other words the Church is ripe for judgment.

GOD WILL PROVIDE THE WORDS WHEN WE ARE BROUGHT BEFORE ARE ACCUSERS from my book "HIS GRACE"



     In my early days I had no idea what prophecy even meant.  I'd grown up in the Catholic Church and frankly I don't think I ever met a prophet there. I had been invited to a friend’s birthday party.  These were all my old acquaintances and now that I was on fire for God I was reluctant to go.  These people were real party animals.  I had a friend with me who was also on fire for God and thought it would be a good idea to go.  Reluctantly I went. Little did I know, it was a set-up.
     His apartment overlooked a major highway and often they would hang off the balcony when they got drunk and throw beer bottles onto the highway.  My friend drove a stolen car every day.  I think they called me there that day to try to de-program me.  Little did I know, I was going to deliver my first prophecy.
      Almost immediately, they began to attack my new found faith. All of my friends started manifesting strangely and their personalities changed.  They seemed angry with my friend and me and began to insinuate all kinds of weird stuff.  I felt a strange tingling in my body.  Even my hands felt tingly.  Something began to bubble-up inside and I began to feel really good.  Suddenly I felt as if I was about a foot taller, and I felt bold.  Without my knowledge or it seems my consent, my body stood up.  Before I knew it, the most eloquent speech I ever heard came pouring out of my mouth.  I began to look at each one of them, and rebuke them.  Several of them started barking like dogs, and others started to slide on the cold oak floors slithering and hissing like snakes. The only thing I ever remember saying was to the owner of the apartment.  That for the next 3 1/2? years of his life, he was going to trip over the smallest stone.  That everything he put his hands to would fail until he fell on his knees and surrendered his life to God. And with that, my friend and I walked out. 
     Later I heard that the police had been called in.  The neighbors had called the police with all the screaming and yelling.  Maybe they'd just figured they had dogs in their apartment and snakes too I bet.
3 1/2? years later, a knock came to my door.  As I went down the stairs to the door and looked through the glass, I could see my friend.  My heart sank, and I knew I couldn't turn back now.  I'm sure he heard my footsteps coming.  I cautiously opened the large wooden door. I said “Hi”, but he didn't immediately answer.  He was looking down at his feet and acting nervous.  Finally, he looked up at me and spoke these three words “Praise the Lord”.  I was shocked and thought maybe he was kidding. 
     He went on to tell me that for 3 1/2? years his life was miserable and everything went wrong.  He was on his way to kill a friend of his and had a gun underneath the seat of his car.  He’d found his friend sleeping with his wife, and that he just couldn't live with it.  On his way to his friends, he stopped his car on a major road, got out of his car, got down on his knees and surrendered his life to God.  He then appeared at my door.
     Later I heard that he had dragged everyone else to God too.  His wife's family asked me if I would talk to their son.  I think they felt I had some power and could make people come to God.  The meeting never did take place.
      LUKE 21:12 “But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will hand you over to synagogues and put you in prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name. 13 And so you will bear testimony to me. 14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15 For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. 16 You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17Everyone will hate you because of me. 18 But not a hair of your head will perish. 19 Stand firm, and you will win life.

TORNADO DREAM IN A BOAT ON THE OCEAN by EJ Ouellette

Dream: Tuesday, November 29, 2011
I dreamt I was out on the ocean or on a large body of water in a large cabin cruiser. The wind was howling and the waves were huge. The boat was rocking furiously from side to side and I thought for sure we were going to sink. The wind finally died down a little and I thought we were going to be okay. Suddenly a voice came over the marine radio and said, “get ready an F27 tornado is headed your way”.  My legs went numb when I heard this. I’ve never heard of a F27 tornado before and I imagined it must be huge, the worst ever.
I awoke at this point and never saw the tornado itself. I immediately,  went to my Bible and looked up different verses of this verse 27. Often God speaks to me through numbers in dreams and almost always a certain Scripture will be exactly like my dream. In this case Acts 27 was almost exactly my dream. Since it is a long chapter I will summarize what it was about. It was when the apostle Paul appealed to Caesar and was being taken by ship. The ship ran into a huge storm and when Paul cried out to the Lord, the Lord spoke to him and told him, 'that though the ship would be lost, all the lives would be saved'. This is when he found himself on the island of Malta.
At first I thought this dream was about me specifically but after much prayer today I realized that it might be about the church and that something was about to take place. For the longest time now the Lord has been speaking to me about the great storm coming and I believe it is right at the threshold now. I'm not 100% sure if it's the economic collapse that is coming, which I know is a huge storm itself or the great Midwest earthquake which is overdue. The Lord has been giving me dreams about this coming disaster since the early 1980’s. An F27 tornado is technically impossible but nonetheless it would be absolutely huge and would bring an incredible amount of destruction. It is one of the reasons why I think it could be the great Midwest earthquake. This judgment of course, could also be due to the fact of Pres Obama trying to divide up the land in Israel and the Lord's judgment being, dividing up the United States.-By EJ Ouellette

Joel 3
The Nations Judged
 1 [a]“In those days and at that time, 
   when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, 
2 I will gather all nations 
   and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.[b] 
There I will put them on trial 
   for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, 
because they scattered my people among the nations 
   and divided up my land. 
3 They cast lots for my people 
   and traded boys for prostitutes; 
   they sold girls for wine to drink.

SATAN WANTS TO KILL ME-from my book MAJESTIES of HIS KINGDOM


Jesus and I stood side by side in a darkened room. Five black Ninjas stood in front of us poised for a strike. Their ice cold eyes peered from the black cloth that covered their face and body. One of the ninjas had a white piece of paper in his hand and I could see a large title at the top and some sort of list underneath the title. I focused in and saw clearly at the top 'TOP TEN HIT LIST' under that was a list of ten names and one of them was mine! Mine was third from the top. I didn't cringe when I saw it, instead I felt privileged knowing that I was such a great threat to Satan and his lowly kingdom.
      Jesus spoke, "These are Satan's five greatest assassins who have been enlisted to kill you. Satan told them, that if they failed in their jobs, they would be demoted to the lowest ranks of hell. They were told that they could not maim you, hurt you, or anything else, but that they must take your life from this earth."
      At this, I began to laugh aloud and said to Jesus, "But I can see them perfectly!" Jesus spoke, "Yes I have given you great sight".
      I suddenly felt someone at my right. I could see a woman dressed in a white Ninja outfit, with a semi transparent mask over her eyes. Instantly I could see from her perspective as if looking out her eyes. I could see that she could barely see the black ninjas. She could only see a faint silhouette. On the other hand, she was more powerful than all the other Ninjas and could easily take them out. To do this though she had to rely on my sight to see where they were.
      This was Gods perfect plan. We had to rely on one another to function as a body. Moreover, we could not do it alone, even if we are exceptionally gifted.

    Technically we should all be threats to Satan but I often find that most so-called Christians are not even known by him. Most of my attacks, actually all of my attacks, come from so-called Christians. I have had death threats from people in the church that believe they are Christians. They unknowingly are servants of Satan.

    In 1996 I had this vivid dream. I dreamt I could not see anything but I could hear the Lords voice from Heaven like a trumpet. There is no other sound like it when you hear His booming voice. I was under a lot of attack at the time and was feeling quite battle worn when he spoke. This is what he said, "SATAN WANTS TO KILL YOU BECAUSE HE KNOWS I AM SENDING YOU TO TAKE OUT THE HIGH AND LOFTY"!. I then saw a perfect vision in the darkness of 'Rodney Howard Browne' sort of dancing across a platform needlessly screaming a message at the audience. He was well dressed and looked like any other preacher. I was shocked when I saw this since I had no Idea who he was and what he was doing following Satan and posing as a follower of God. It was then the lights when on in my head and I asked God "WELL WHO TOLD HIM?" I mean after all, I kept this a secret my whole life as I was warned by God not to mention my role in the end times. In other words only God could have told him and that's when all my attacks began. He never answered me.

     I decided to do some research on this guy and discovered he was indeed a heretical teacher promising great earthly riches if you gave HIS ministry money.

    I have my own list and I chose to keep it secret but I am sure it's a lot longer than Satan's. Of course I meant that the coming economic collapse will take care of most of these guys -EJ Ouellette

1 Peter 4:17
For it is time for judgment to begin with God's household; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God?



      This will be a time of great shaking in the church. Many leaders will be supernaturally taken out and many others will be made an example of their compromise in the kingdom. Some will merely lose their churches and finances and others will drop dead like Ananias and Sapphira. (Acts 5:1)
      They were warned, yet they did not prepare their flock to get ready for the great economic collapse so they would have a chance to repent. They were not readied nor told the truth so their judgment will be much greater.
      For those that endured great persecution while still holding onto your faith and trust in God, even though you saw the sad state of the Church. Do not become jealous like the prodigal son’s obedient brother but instead rejoice with your heavenly Father as he welcomes home his wayward sons, those Christians that embraced the world and all its glory.
      After this time of great upheaval God will restore his people again as in
Isaiah 30:26 (New International Version)
26 The moon will shine like the sun, and the sunlight will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days, when the LORD binds up the bruises of his people and heals the wounds HE inflicted.

Five Angels met me on the road-by EJ Ouellette Sept 2007 DReam

In September 2007 I had this very vivid dream. by EJ Ouellette

I was driving through some winding roads in Virginia in the country. It was a beautiful sunny day and there were no other cars on the road. As I came around a sharp turn I was met with five angels standing on the road and applied my brakes. I got out of the car and approached the angels. I recognized some of them from other encounters over my life. The one standing in the front was obviously the leader and almost immediately began to speak to me. "Get ready, for the stock market is about to crash. Life as you know it is going to change dramatically".
I looked over each Angel intently thinking when am I ever going to see them so clearly. They looked like they could be anybody but seemed to have a radiance about them. I didn't want them to go and I was wondering what I should ask them when the leader responded.
"China and the Pope are behind it" I was shocked when he said it and then woke up.
I didn't know if he meant that they were next in line for a crash or it was a conspiracy to take the market down.
Needless to say, the market crashed almost one year to the day, that they came and told me.

Chuck Missler on Sid Roth 1-3 UFOs and the Nephilim, 2009

Three videos in total. I've always been fascinated with UFOs and such despite the narrow mindedness in the church body. Its nice to hear someone with brains stand up in the Church on the subject!

Dream about ENGLAND 2/17/2007 by EJ Ouellette


Going through some older dreams today came across this one still unfulfilled as yet.

Dream: 2/17/2007
Dreamt was standing in the streets of London England.  The street in front of me was void of people.  A silver and black Rolls Royce came towards me from around the corner, followed closely behind was another silver and black Rolls Royce limousine.  Both of the vehicles went past me but I could not see the occupants. Suddenly I was standing in a hallway at Buckingham palace.  Lying on the floor and a fetal position was the queen of England.  She seemed to be praying and crying out to god. She was very distraught.  As I looked down the long hallway the staff had congregated at the end of the hallway looking at the queen lying on the floor, not saying a word.  I walked past the queen as if I were invisible I looked down upon her body lying precariously on the cold marble floor.  I then continued on my walk towards the waiting staff which took no notice of me as I walked through the crowded hallway and into another room.
 I awoke at this point and realized, that I had this exact same dream two nights before and had forgotten all about it.  I felt as if some major event was about to take place in London or what the British people.

10 Reasons Why You May Be a Prosperity Preacher

10 Reasons Why You May Be a Prosperity Preacher
1) You think owning expensive homes, cars, planes, jewelry, having plastic surgery, maids and butlers, and traveling to exotic places of the earth (for fun not ministry - and taking a boatload of people with on your ministry’s dime)… is your God given right because you preach the Gospel.

2) You think having $700 ties, $5000 custom made suits and $1000 plus shoes is your God given right because you preach the Gospel.

3) You use every Old Testament feast, day, new moon, new year, Sabbath, breakfast meal and lunch break to create new teachings to get New Testament believers to give to your ministry.

4) You tell New Testament believers every one of the above hair-brained schemes is a “new revelation” from God - and they had better order your “new revelation” teaching (cd/dvd or even mp3 download) or God will not bless them. 

5) You tell yourself you’re the now super-duper anointed vessel of the hour because you preach those hair-brained schemes.

6) You tell yourself you’re the now super-duper anointed vessel of the hour because you made an appearance on TBN or had an article written about you by Charisma Magazine.

7) You tell yourself you’re the now super-duper anointed vessel of the hour because you paid for a full-page ad in Charisma Magazine.

8) You have a posse/entourage of yes men and women bigger than most rock stars and Hollywood celebs.

9) You hassle and pressure your members to give to your building program so you can have a bigger building than the prosperity preacher down the block (though it’s not needed).

10) You would rather have a good word given to you from “the Donald” (as in Trump) rather than from “the Christ” (as in Jesus: Lord of Lords and King of Kings).

New recession threatens the globe as debt crisis grows

New recession threatens the globe as debt crisis grows

Europe's escalating debt crisis has cast a black shadow over the world's fragile recovery, threatening to tip large parts of the global economy into a deep downturn and even outright recession.

The OECD's index of leading indicators for China, India, Brazil, Canada, Britain and the eurozone have all tipped below the warning line of 100, with the pace of the decline in Europe exceeding the onset of the Great Contraction in early 2008.
Professor Simon Johnson, a former chief economist at the IMF, rattled nerves earlier this week by warning the world is "looking straight into the face of a great depression".
The grim data is coming thick and fast. Japan's machinery orders fell 8.2pc in September as the post-Fukushima rebound lost steam and the delayed effects of the super-strong yen began to bite. Export orders have been declining for eight months. "Outright contraction is possible in the quarters ahead," said Mark Cliffe from ING.
Exports in the Philippines dropped 27pc in September, the sharpest fall in two years. Korea's exports have showed sharply, caused by a 20pc slide in shipments to Europe. Manufacturing has been contracting for the past three months.
Christine Lagarde, the IMF's chief, warned in Asia that "there are dark clouds gathering in the global economy. Countries need to prepare for any storm that might reach their shores". She said "adverse feedback loops" are at work as financial stress and economic woes feed on each other.
China's carefully managed soft landing has turned uncomfortably hard, with ripple effects through the commodity markets. Spot iron-ore prices have dropped 30pc since July to $126 a tonne. Copper prices have fallen 20pc since August.
Barclays Capital said the risks of contagion to China has become serious. The bank is monitoring the country's "key high frequency data" for early warning signs of the sort of sudden crash in metals demand seen during the Lehman crisis.
China had the firepower to respond to the 2008 crisis with blitz of credit that helped lift the whole world out of slump, a feat that cannot easily be repeated if there is a second shock.
The IMF said loans have doubled to almost 200pc of GDP, including off-books lending. This is an unprecedented level of credit growth, twice the intensity of the Japanese bubble in the late 1980s.
The authorities are trying to deflate the excesses slowly with higher interest rates and reserve ratios. This is proving painful. Yao Wei from Societe Generale said prices of new residential property fell 14pc in October. Railway investment collapsed by 40pc as the insolvent railway ministry struggled to cope with $300bn of debt. Highway construction dropped 2pc.
Europe is in a deeper, more intractable crisis. Industrial output buckled in September with falls of 4.8pc in Italy, 2.7pc in Germany, and 1.7pc in France from a month earlier as the effects of the debt crisis – as well as fiscal contraction and prior monetary tightening – finally hit with a vengeance.
EU commissioner Olli Rehn slashed growth forecasts from 1.6pc to 0.5pc next year, warning "that recovery has now come to a standstill and there's the risk of a new recession unless determined action is taken". This did not stop Brussels sending a letter to Italy calling for yet more fiscal cuts to meet it is balanced budget target by 2013.
"It is imposing pain for pain's sake, and it is going to cause creditors to collect even less on their Club Med debts than if austerity were abandoned. Even in the early 1930s they weren't as bad as this," said Charles Dumas from Lombard Street Research.
Humayun Shahryar from the hedge fund Auvest said the eurozone faces a "major economic collapse", perhaps with double-dgit falls in GDP. "European banks are massively over-leveraged and almost every one is worthless if you mark to market. This is going to be worse than 2008 because they have run out of bullets. The sovereign states are not strong enough to stand behind the banks," he said.
Professor Johnson said the EU authorities had made a serious mistake by raising capital ratios for banks to 9pc rather than forcing them to raise fresh capital. "That will lead to a further contraction of credit."
Banks have already taken drastic steps to cut their loan books rather than raise money in a hostile market, earmarking over €700bn for the next year. There will be knock-on effects for the rest of the world. European banks account €2.5 trillion cross-border loans to emerging markets.
In the US, the economy has held up better than feared so far but faces a fiscal shock early next year. Tax write-offs have pulled capital expenditure forward into late 2011, flattering the picture.
Payroll taxes will rise automatically from 4.2pc to 6.2pc in January. Dumas said the combined fiscal squeeze could be as much as 2pc of GDP, heavily "front-loaded" in the early months. "Sharp recession is likely," he said.
"The credit spigot has been turned off in the US," said Chris Whelan from Institutional Risk Analytics. "Almost every bank is still running down its loan book, so we are facing a slow motion credit-crunch."
Fiscal and monetary stimulus has disguised the underlying sickness in the debt-laden economies of the West over the past two years. This heavy make-up has at last faded away, exposing the awful visage beneath.
It is a delicate moment. The risk of a synchronised slump in Europe, the US and East Asia is bad enough. What is chilling is to face such a possibility with the monetary pedal already pushed to the floor in the US, UK and Japan.
Worse yet is to do so with Europe spiralling into institutional self-destruction, allowing its debt crisis to metastasize because EMU has no lender of last resort. That is an unforced error we could do without.

A Message to His Holy Highness the Worshipful Bishop Rev. Dr. Apostle Grand Poobah – By Lee Grady


Jesus just wasn’t into titles. We shouldn’t be either.

I am often asked if I have a title, and my answer doesn’t satisfy some people. I travel a lot, so I don’t consider myself a pastor. All kinds of labels have been pinned on me: Reverend, prophet, apostle … even bishop. Once I was introduced to a church as “Dr. Grady” and I almost crawled under my seat. I only have a college degree. There are no letters after my name.
I tell people: “You can call me Lee. Or if you want to sound formal, you can say, ‘Brother Grady.’”

“Jesus is the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the Son of David, the Prince of Peace and the Apostle of our Confession. Yet when He came into this world He laid aside His heavenly glory and took on the lowly name of Jesus.”

Today it seems we’ve developed a title fetish. For a while everyone in charismatic circles was becoming a bishop (and some were installed into this office with rings, robes and funny-looking hats). Then the same guys with the pointy hats started calling themselves apostles. Then the prophets got jealous and started calling themselves apostles too! I knew one lady who, not to be outdone, required people to call her “Exalted Prophetess.”

Now the latest fad is requiring church folks to address certain people as apostles. (As in, “When Apostle Holy Moly arrives, please only address him as, ‘Apostle,’ and then make sure he is seated in a private room while his two adjutants, wearing dark glasses, guard his door.”) They’ve even invented an elaborate theology to go along with this ridiculous rule. It suggests that you can’t receive the true anointing from a man of God if you don’t honor him with the right title.

Sounds so very ooo-ooh spiritual to the naive. But it’s garbage.
Jesus didn’t play this religious game, especially when he was around the Grand Poobahs of His day—the long-robed scribes and Pharisees. After accusing them of loving the best seats in the synagogues, He pointed out that they loved to be called “Rabbi” by men (see Matt. 23:7).
Then He warned them: “But do not be called Rabbi; for One is your Teacher, and you are all brothers. … the greatest among you shall be your servant. Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted” (v. 8-12, NASB).

People have quibbled over these words for centuries, insisting that ecclesiastical titles are not the problem; pride is what Jesus was rebuking. I would agree that Jesus was going to the root sin. But He was also asking these title-crazy guys if they’d be willing to ditch their labels and act like normal people.

When I was in China several years ago, I met some amazing leaders who had planted thousands of congregations. They had also spent a lot of time in jail for their faith, and they’d been beaten with iron rods for preaching the gospel. They were the bravest apostles I’ve ever met. But when I asked them if they used “apostle” as a title, one guy said: “We believe in those roles in the church. But we prefer to call each other ‘brother’ or ‘sister.’”
That settled it for me. A few years later I met Iftakhar, a Pakistani apostle who has oversight of 900 churches. He also has two scars on his arm from gunshots fired by Muslim extremists who have put a price on his head. When I asked him how I should address him, he smiled and said, “Iftakhar.”
If these two giants of the faith—and true apostles—don’t require to be addressed with titles, then Your Worshipful Grand Master Rev. Dr. Bishop Jones (who claims oversight of maybe four churches) shouldn’t wear his ministry role around his neck like a tacky neon name badge.

If people can’t see the anointing on your life through your character, then don’t cheapen the gospel by wearing a title you don’t deserve.
I’m not saying people shouldn’t use reverend, minister or even bishop to identify their roles in the church. But can we please dispense with the insecurity, and the childish “I’m more important than you” appellations, and get back to the simplicity of the gospel? Let’s get over ourselves!
Jesus is the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the Son of David, the Prince of Peace and the Apostle of our Confession. Yet when He came into this world He laid aside His heavenly glory and took on the lowly name of Jesus. He wore no fancy robes. He demanded no titles. He did not come to be ministered to, but to minister. If we want to serve Him honorably, we must forsake our need for fame and cast our crowns at His feet.

1973 PROPHECY - THE VISION by David Wilkerson



David Wilkerson 1973 Prophecy becoming True ?
Pastor David Wilkerson (May 19, 1931 – April 27, 2011) . claimed to have received a vision in 1973 regarding the future of the United States, subsequently published in a book called The Vision. What he saw was America having a total economic collapse. He saw martial law and this was in 1973. He said there were fires that were burning and couldn't be put out in New York City. He said it would be an extremely violent time. Last thing, he said he thinks he would be alive when this happens. Some of the subject areas of this reputed prophecy were: "Worldwide recession caused by economic confusion"; "Nature having labor pains"; "A flood of filth and a baptism of dirt in America"; "Rebellion in the home"; and "A persecution madness against truly Spirit filled Christians who love Jesus Christ". There is a coming worldwide economic confusion. It will strike Europe, Japan and the US, then all other nations. There are lean years ahead. There will be a move toward a worldwide, unified monetary system. (This was years before the Euro -- every European nation had its own system). Floods, hurricanes and tornadoes will increase in frequency.
There will be a fall in moral conduct. Topless women will appear on television, followed by full nudity (something that had never been done in 1973) Adult, X rated movies will be shown on cable television.

"BANKS ARE CLOSED" WORD FROM DAVID WILKERSON that is simliar to my recent dream

I posted this because it reminds me of a dream I had just last week. It also makes me think about whats going on in GREECE. It was similar to this vision. I dreamt all the money stopped. Years ago a friend I know had a dream about everyone going to the banks but they were all closed and everyone was panicking.

David Wilkerson’s Word:    

It's about to happen---very soon, one nation, and I'm speaking prophetically--if I've ever heard anything from God in my life, I heard it-the nations,...Very soon a European or North African or Eastern nation is going to default on it's international loan and when that happens, within two weeks, Mexico is going to default. Mexico owes $100 billion ---80% of it to American banks---and here's what is going to happen: about two weeks after the first country goes bankrupt, (we're going to survive that, because most of that (money of the first country) is owed to European banks---German, Swiss and French banks---) but a second country is going to go down, probably Argentina or Brazil, and we'll kind of live that down and say: "Well, maybe it's not going to hurt," but two weeks after the first country goes down, Mexico's going to default on $100 billion. 

And when the banks open the next day at 9 in the morning, $15 billion an hour is going to be withdrawn from our American banks---they're going to be running our banks---the Arabs---All the Latin American countries, they're going to be running our banks--and before the day is over, the U.S.A is going to have to declare a "bank holiday." 

SIX MONTHS OF HORROR: 

And we're going into six months of the worst hell America has ever seen.  There's going to be chaos.  Not even the National Guard's going to be able to quiet it down.  We're going to have to call out the whole U.S. Army. 

Now I've had visions recently for I've been in New York City and I was in Macy's in a vision and I saw people walking around stunned because they couldn't get their money out of the bank. 

Now I'm going to give you a word of advice.  The first country goes bankrupt---I've documented this and I've got it sealed in an envelope, and I'm going to call all my friends and I'm telling you---this is the first time I've said it in a public meeting like this---but the first country that bellies up, you go get every dime you have---church get your money out of the bank--because there's going to be a bank holiday and you won't be able to get a dime for six months. Now, of course, there's going to be -restored, but the nation will never be like it is again. 

There's going to be fear like we've never known---judgment at the door. When I was at Macy's Dept. store in a vision and I watched people walking around stunned, they didn't know what to do, they didn't know what was happening; then a bunch of people walked into Macy's and suddenly went wild and began to steal and within an hour everybody---I saw the spirit of everybody in the store---they were robbing and stealing---they raped Macy's and destroyed five floors---Macy's was raped and ruined in a period of an hour or two.

WHAT IS THE TRUE CHURCH - by EJ Ouellette

Recently, a woman came to me telling me she had some computer problems. Although I like to keep it a secret she had found out somehow that I work on computers. This is not knowledge I normally like to let out. Unfortunately it brings out all the people who want their computers fixed for free. Nonetheless this woman seemed like she knew what she was talking about as she told me her hard-drive was broken. Her hard-drive? Rarely can I tell when the computer is broken down without first diagnosing the problem that it's a hard-drive. She obviously must know a lot about computers or why else would she immediately have pointed out the problem. Intrigued by her request I said "okay" and to drop it by sometime. When she showed up at my door she had the whole computer which kind of shocked me. She told me it was a hard-drive! In case you don't know what a hard-drive is, it's about the size of your hand, silver and fits inside the computer case. I asked her "I thought you said it was the hard-drive?" She looked at me like I'd lost my mind and by the look on her face I would say she thought maybe I didn't know anything about computers at all. I looked back at her perplexed but not sure what to say. I told her "you said the hard-drive was broken" she pointed to the big-box on the floor and said "there it is, the hard-drive"! It was then I realized that she was calling the case that housed the motherboard the power supply and the hard-drive, the hard-drive itself. A smirk came across my face that I could not hold back. She had been severely misinformed, somehow she been told by some computer illiterate that the case which housed the hard drive was in fact the hard drive itself. It was hard to keep from laughing.

       A couple of weeks ago while I was in prayer the Lord brought back this humorous scene. He spoke to me clearly “This is like my church. The church is a living organism that is sometimes housed by a building and sometimes not. Over time the deception has come over the true church and they have been taught that is no longer the 'people' (Organism) it’s now the ‘building’ instead. This deception has caused many people to stumble. People now defend a useless building and call it a church. The church is only and has ever been a ‘people’.”

     It was as clear as a bell when he said it. I thought of words spoken to me many times "I heard he left the church" this statement always bothered me because it made no sense at all. How could someone leave himself? I mean how is it possible that I can be the church and leave the church at same time? Am I the only one with a brain? Secondly when arm-twisting preachers guilt you into giving to 'the church', they mean the people right? Not the building? Did Satan himself perpetrate this lie? There seems to be no other answer to me. Satan is the author of falsehoods like this. He has now even duped the true church into believing the church is a building, or even a denomination. Many times in the past the Lord has spoken to me. "My church wears shoes"

     Next you'll be telling me Jesus turned the water in to grape juice!
