On this episode of the Innocence Redeemed podcast, I will be talking about the upcoming eclipse, what God is trying to show His people and the unbelieving alike. America has approached her Nineveh moment; Will she repent? Moreso, will God’s own people repent? I will also be talking about false prophets and what many of them are trying to say in this late hour and the ways many are being led into confusion and deception in this late hour. I will be talking about what the Lord says about false prophets and discussing how to identify them and the divining spirit and the danger of having itching ears, as well as the consequences to the false prophets/teachers and the danger in falling for these deceptions.
UPDATED 4/6/2024 & 4/9: Someone sent this to me. I don’t know what social media site this was posted on as I am not on social media but I will just tell you it is someone well known.
Isn’t this interesting? The symbol of anarchy = rebellion. Still think this is a coincidence? We are a nation in rebellion against the living God and yet even as earthquakes, wars and rumors of wars mount, including now, rumors of FAMINES, what do you consistently hear? You hear nonsense such as ‘this is because of climate change’ or ‘mother nature is rebelling!’ No, that’s not what’s happening. What’s actually happening is God is beginning to lift His hand of protection because the rebellion continues. In other words, He is allowing these judgments. What should we expect? Resurrection Sunday being turned into tranny day? Now rumors beginning that, if Iran attacks Israel, the US will NOT help in defense, though our mainstream media continues to say the opposite? And again, we wonder why we have an X over us? As I said in the podcast, God is on the throne and HE is speaking. Are we listening yet? The gentle shakings are just the beginning; A firestorm is coming. A RED HEIFER was just sacrificed on GOOD FRIDAY -so this is/was in addition to the heresy of what was declared over America for Resurrection Sunday. Pay attention those of you in America as well as those of you abroad (i.e. Australia, Europe, UK). COME AWAY FROM THE SINS AND REBELLION. Remember, Nineveh was given 40 days. STOP placing hope in elections. STOP placing your hope in a pre-tribulation rapture. April 8th came and went just as I said it would and nothing happened but that doesn’t mean that it won’t. You will be here but how merciful the Lord is to each of us depends on each of us as we are all separately accountable to HIM. Repent from the hate, hypocrisy, idolatry, lying, murder, pride, theft and sexual sin among many, many others. Walk in true concern and love for others (this is a big one!) not just pretending. Be a doer, not just a hearer. JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY AND ALL WHO COME TO HIM, BELIEVE AND CALL UPON HIM SHALL HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE!
IF YOU HAVE ACCEPTED JESUS YOU MUST NOT CONTINUE TO LIVE IN SIN (SEE HEBREWS 10:26-31 BELOW). HOW DO YOU GET FREE OF SIN? BY DRAWING NEAR TO THE LORD IN PRAYER AND WORD MEDITATION. AS A RESULT BECOMING CONSCOIOUS IN WHAT GOD EXPECTS FROM US (RIGHTEOUSNESS). AS YOU DO, THE LORD WILL ESTABLISH HIMSELF WITHIN YOU AND YOU WILL BEGIN LIVING FOR HIM. THE FORMER THINGS WILL PASS AWAY BECAUSE YOU BEGIN TO DIE TO SELF TO GAIN CHRIST.
John 3:15-17 (KJV)
15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Ephesians 4:22-24 (AMP)
22 that, regarding your previous way of life, you put off your old self [completely discard your former nature], which is being corrupted through deceitful desires, 23 and be continually renewed in the spirit of your mind [having a fresh, untarnished mental and spiritual attitude], 24 and put on the new self [the regenerated and renewed nature], created in God’s image, [godlike] in the righteousness and holiness of the truth [living in a way that expresses to God your gratitude for your salvation].
Philippians 3:8-9 (AMP)
8 But more than that, I count everything as loss compared to the priceless privilege and supreme advantage of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord [and of growing more deeply and thoroughly acquainted with Him—a joy unequaled]. For His sake I have lost everything, and I consider it all garbage, so that I may gain Christ, 9 and may be found in Him [believing and relying on Him], not having any righteousness of my own derived from [my obedience to] the Law and its rituals, but [possessing] that [genuine righteousness] which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness which comes from God on the basis of faith.
1 Peter 2:16 (AMP)
16 Live as free people, but do not use your freedom as a cover or pretext for evil, but [use it and live] as bond-servants of God.
2 Peter 3:9 (KJV)
9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hosea 2:13 (KJV)
13 And I will visit upon her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgat me, saith the Lord.
Hebrews 10:26-31 (AMP)
26 For if we go on willfully and deliberately sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice [to atone] for our sins [that is, no further offering to anticipate], 27 but a kind of awful and terrifying expectation of [divine] judgment and the fury of a fire and burning wrath which will consume the adversaries [those who put themselves in opposition to God]. 28 Anyone who has ignored and set aside the Law of Moses is put to death without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 How much greater punishment do you think he will deserve who has rejected and trampled under foot the Son of God, and has considered unclean and common the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and has insulted the Spirit of grace [who imparts the unmerited favor and blessing of God]? 30 For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine [retribution and the deliverance of justice rest with Me], I will repay [the wrongdoer].” And again, “The Lord will judge His people.” 31 It is a fearful and terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God [incurring His judgment and wrath].
Revelation 17:1-2 (KJV)
And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
Revelation 18:4-5 (KJV)
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
Verses as they pertain (not all verses below were referenced in this episode but certainly apply):
Jonah 1:2 (NLT)
2 “Get up and go to the great city of Nineveh. Announce my judgment against it because I have seen how wicked its people are.”
Jonah 3 (ALL -NLT)
Then the Lord spoke to Jonah a second time: 2 “Get up and go to the great city of Nineveh, and deliver the message I have given you.”
3 This time Jonah obeyed the Lord’s command and went to Nineveh, a city so large that it took three days to see it all. 4 On the day Jonah entered the city, he shouted to the crowds: “Forty days from now Nineveh will be destroyed!” 5 The people of Nineveh believed God’s message, and from the greatest to the least, they declared a fast and put on burlap to show their sorrow.
6 When the king of Nineveh heard what Jonah was saying, he stepped down from his throne and took off his royal robes. He dressed himself in burlap and sat on a heap of ashes. 7 Then the king and his nobles sent this decree throughout the city:
“No one, not even the animals from your herds and flocks, may eat or drink anything at all. 8 People and animals alike must wear garments of mourning, and everyone must pray earnestly to God. They must turn from their evil ways and stop all their violence. 9 Who can tell? Perhaps even yet God will change his mind and hold back his fierce anger from destroying us.”
10 When God saw what they had done and how they had put a stop to their evil ways, he changed his mind and did not carry out the destruction he had threatened.
Revelation 9:20-21 (NLT)
20 But the people who did not die in these plagues still refused to repent of their evil deeds and turn to God. They continued to worship demons and idols made of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood—idols that can neither see nor hear nor walk! 21 And they did not repent of their murders or their witchcraft or their sexual immorality or their thefts.
2 Timothy 2:9 (KJV)
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 (AMP)
16 All Scripture is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is profitable for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God’s will, both publicly and privately—behaving honorably with personal integrity and moral courage]; 17 so that the man of God may be complete and proficient, outfitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work.
James 1:3 (AMP)
3 Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace].
1 Peter 4:13 (AMP)
13 But insofar as you are sharing Christ’s sufferings, keep on rejoicing, so that when His glory [filled with His radiance and splendor] is revealed, you may rejoice with great joy.
Exodus 22:21 (AMP)
21 “You shall not wrong a stranger or oppress him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Exodus 20:14 (AMP)
14 “You shall not commit adultery.
Ephesians 5:11 (AMP)
11 Do not participate in the worthless and unproductive deeds of darkness, but instead expose them [by exemplifying personal integrity, moral courage, and godly character]
Proverbs 12:1-2 (AMP)
Whoever loves instruction and discipline loves knowledge,
But he who hates reproof and correction is stupid.
2 A good man will obtain favor from the Lord,
But He will condemn a man who devises evil.
Hebrews 12:11-12 (AMP)
11 For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems sad and painful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness [right standing with God and a lifestyle and attitude that seeks conformity to God’s will and purpose].
12 So then, strengthen hands that are weak and knees that tremble.
Philippians 2:12 (AMP)
12 So then, my dear ones, just as you have always obeyed [my instructions with enthusiasm], not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, continue to work out your salvation [that is, cultivate it, bring it to full effect, actively pursue spiritual maturity] with awe-inspired fear and trembling [using serious caution and critical self-evaluation to avoid anything that might offend God or discredit the name of Christ].
Matthew 24:23-24 (KJV)
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
2 Thessalonians 2:2-4, 9-12 (AMP) –THESE VERSES ARE KEY IN ADDITION TO WHAT JESUS SAID. WE DO NOT GET TO ESCAPE IN AN EPISODE OF STAR TREK FOLKS -ALTHOUGH THE P.T.B. OF THE ANTICHRIST SYSTEM AND IT’S MINIONS (I.E. THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN INDOCTRINATED INTO IT EVEN UNKNOWINGLY) ARE CERTAINLY PREPARING EVERYONE WITH THE ALIEN/UFO AGENDA. THEIR PLAN IS TO STAGE AN EVENT THAT LOOKS LIKE THE REAL THING (AND YES THEY HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY TO DO SO) TO MISLEAD MANY. THIS IS A FORM OF BRAINWASHING AND MIND CONTROL AND THE APOSTATE CHURCH IS VERY MUCH PART OF IT. DO NOT BE DECEIVED. REMEMBER FALSE SIGNS AND WONDERS. THE FOLLOWING VERSES SPECIFICALLY WARN AGAINST FALSE DOCTRINE AND TEACHERS TELLING YOU THAT WE WILL ESCAPE. JESUS SAID AND SCRIPTURE IS CLEAR, THAT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TRIBULATION OF THOSE DAYS, THE SKIES WILL BE DARKENED AND THIS IS WHEN JESUS RETURNS TO GATHER US, NOT BEFOREHAND!
Man of Lawlessness
2 Now in regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to meet Him, we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to be quickly unsettled or alarmed either by a [so-called prophetic revelation of a] spirit or a message or a letter [alleged to be] from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has [already] come. 3 Let no one in any way deceive or entrap you, for that day will not come unless the apostasy comes first [that is, the great rebellion, the abandonment of the faith by professed Christians], and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction [the Antichrist, the one who is destined to be destroyed], 4 who opposes and exalts himself [so proudly and so insolently] above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he [actually enters and] takes his seat in the temple of God, publicly proclaiming that he himself is God.
9 The coming of the [Antichrist, the lawless] one is through the activity of Satan, [attended] with great power [all kinds of counterfeit miracles] and [deceptive] signs and false wonders [all of them lies],
Remember, Jesus said to, DECEIVE, if possible, the very elect and this is what I was referring to in the podcast.
10 and by unlimited seduction to evil and with all the deception of wickedness for those who are perishing, because they did not welcome the love of the truth [of the gospel] so as to be saved [they were spiritually blind, and rejected the truth that would have saved them]. 11 Because of this God will send upon them a misleading influence, [an activity of error and deception] so they will believe the lie, 12 in order that all may be judged and condemned who did not believe the truth [about their sin, and the need for salvation through Christ], but instead took pleasure in unrighteousness.
Revelation 12:17 (AMP)
17 So the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went off to wage war on the rest of her children (seed), those who keep and obey the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus [holding firmly to it and bearing witness to Him].
Revelation 13:5-10 (AMP)- Again, if we weren’t going to be here (i.e. taken in a pre-trib rapture) why does Revelation 13 (quoted below) and Daniel 7:25 warn God’s Holy people about endurance and faithfulness during persecution?
5 And the beast was given a mouth (the power of speech), uttering great things and arrogant and blasphemous words, and he was given freedom and authority to act and to do as he pleased for forty-two months (three and a half years). 6 And he opened his mouth to speak blasphemies (abusive speech, slander) against God, to blaspheme His name and His tabernacle, and those who live in heaven.
7 He was also permitted to wage war against the saints (God’s people) and to overcome them, and authority and power over every tribe and people and language and nation. 8 All the inhabitants of the earth will fall down and worship him, everyone whose name has not been written since the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb who has been slain [as a willing sacrifice]. 9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. 10 If anyone is destined for captivity, he will go into captivity; if anyone kills with a sword, he must be killed with a sword. Here is [the call for] the patient endurance and the faithfulness of the saints [which is seen in the response of God’s people to difficult times].
Revelation 14:9-13 (AMP) –John the Baptist would NOT warned/written of the consequences for those who turn away from Jesus to serve/worship the beast nor would He have spoken to the endurance of the saints in persecution if we were not going to be here.
9 Then another angel, a third one, followed them, saying with a loud voice, “Whoever worships the beast and his image and receives the mark [of the beast] on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he too will [have to] drink of the wine of the wrath of God, mixed undiluted into the cup of His anger; and he will be tormented with fire and brimstone (flaming sulfur) in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb (Christ). 11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day and night—those who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name.” 12 Here is [encouragement for] the steadfast endurance of the saints (God’s people), those who habitually keep God’s commandments and their faith in Jesus.
13 Then I heard [the distinct words of] a voice from heaven, saying, “Write, ‘Blessed (happy, prosperous, to be admired) are the dead who die in the Lord from now on!’” “Yes, [blessed indeed],” says the Spirit, “so that they may rest and have relief from their labors, for their deeds do follow them.”
2 Timothy 4:1-4 (AMP)
I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His kingdom: 2 preach the word [as an official messenger]; be ready when the time is right and even when it is not [keep your sense of urgency, whether the opportunity seems favorable or unfavorable, whether convenient or inconvenient, whether welcome or unwelcome]; correct [those who err in doctrine or behavior], warn [those who sin], exhort and encourage [those who are growing toward spiritual maturity], with inexhaustible patience and [faithful] teaching. 3 For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine and accurate instruction [that challenges them with God’s truth]; but wanting to have their ears tickled [with something pleasing], they will accumulate for themselves [many] teachers [one after another, chosen] to satisfy their own desires and to support the errors they hold, 4 and will turn their ears away from the truth and will wander off into myths and man-made fictions [and will accept the unacceptable].
Jeremiah 14:13-16 (AMP)
13 But I said, “Alas, Lord God! Behold, the [false] prophets are telling them, ‘You will not see the sword nor will you have famine, but I [the Lord] will give you lasting peace in this place.’” 14 Then the Lord said to me, “The [counterfeit] prophets are prophesying lies in My Name. I have neither sent them nor authorized them nor spoken to them. They are prophesying to you made-up visions [pretending to call forth responses from handmade gods], a worthless divination and the deceit of their own mind. 15 Therefore, thus says the Lord concerning the [false] prophets who are prophesying in My Name, although I did not send them—yet they keep saying, ‘Sword and famine shall not be in this land’: by sword and famine those prophets shall meet their end and be consumed. 16 And the people to whom they are prophesying will be thrown out into the streets of Jerusalem, victims of famine and sword; and they will have no one to bury them—neither them, nor their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters. For I will pour out their [own] wickedness on them [and not only on the imposters posing as prophets, for the people could not have been deceived without their own consent].
Jeremiah 23:16 (AMP)
16 Thus says the Lord of hosts,
“Do not listen to the words of the [false] prophets who prophesy to you.
They are teaching you worthless things and are leading you into futility;
They speak a vision of their own mind and imagination
And not [truth] from the mouth of the Lord.
Jeremiah 29:8-9 (AMP)
8 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, ‘Do not let your [false] prophets who are among you and your diviners deceive you; pay no attention and attach no significance to the dreams which they dream or to yours, 9 for they prophesy falsely to you in My Name. I have not sent them,’ says the Lord.
1 John 4:1 (AMP)
Beloved, do not believe every spirit [speaking through a self-proclaimed prophet]; instead test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets and teachers have gone out into the world.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 (AMP)
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
Ecclesiastes 7:10 (AMP)
10 Do not say, “Why were the old days better than these?” For it is not from wisdom that you ask about this.
Acts 13:40 (AMP)
40 Therefore be careful, so that the thing spoken of in the [writings of the] Prophets does not come upon you
Leviticus 20:7-8 (AMP)
7 You shall consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am the Lord your God. 8 You shall keep My statutes and do them. I am the Lord who sanctifies you.
Hebrews 10:31 (AMP)
31 It is a fearful and terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God [incurring His judgment and wrath].
2 Timothy 3:12 (KJV)
12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
Matthew 12:30 (AMP)
30 He who is not with Me [once and for all on My side] is against Me; and he who does not [unequivocally] gather with Me scatters.
2 Corinthians 6:17-18 (AMP)
17 “So come out from among unbelievers and be separate,” says the Lord,
“And do not touch what is unclean;
And I will graciously receive you and welcome you [with favor],
18 And I will be a Father to you,
And you will be My sons and daughters,”
Says the Lord Almighty.
1 Thessalonians 4:7 (AMP)
7 For God has not called us to impurity, but to holiness [to be dedicated, and set apart by behavior that pleases Him, whether in public or in private].
Psalm 4:3 (AMP)
3 But know that the Lord has set apart for Himself [and dealt wonderfully with] the godly man [the one of honorable character and moral courage—the one who does right]. The Lord hears and responds when I call to Him.
Matthew 19:11-12 (AMP)
11 But He said to them, “Not all men can accept this statement, but only those to whom [the capacity to receive] it has been given. 12 For there are eunuchs who have been born that way from their mother’s womb [making them incapable of consummating a marriage]; and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men [for royal service]; and there are eunuchs who have made themselves so for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this, let him accept it.”
1 Corinthians 7:8-9, 20-24 (AMP)
8 But I say to the unmarried and to the widows, [that as a practical matter] it is good if they remain [single and entirely devoted to the Lord] as I am. 9 But if they do not have [sufficient] self-control, they should marry; for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
Innocence Redeemed note; I want to insert something here as it pertains to verse 9 because some have a tendency to take this verse out of context. This is specifically for the men mainly, but it can apply to women too. The issue of ‘self-control’ in the biblical context means so as to avoid engaging in adultery and fornication (i.e. being promiscuous) -which is in itself a sin. Some of you have reached out to me and said that you struggle with a pornography problem at times. Now if this is the case, you want to find deliverance and healing from that first before seeking out a Godly spouse. If you don’t, what’s stopping you from still engaging in lust of the eyes once your married if and when your wife does not sexually satisfy you? That would be a form of cheating when you stop and think about it so it’s essentially the same thing. Also, you should not be seeking a wife just for sexual needs. Additionally what’s stopping satan from sending a decoy? Then you’ll be worse off than before. I’m not trying to be mean about this, but this is the truth. If that’s secretly your heart’s intention, this is why your prayer is delayed or goes unanswered. It’s not that God does not want to Bless you, it’s that He has to get you set straight first because it could be that –your motives are selfish and your intentions are all wrong. You could really hurt someone so why would God honor that? I state all this because I have known many who got married out of lust or money and either they were miserable or the marriage fell apart. Remember what I said in November when I talked about lying to yourself and the sin? Just like women should not be seeking out a husband just to be their piggy-bank or be controlling of the man. Ladies, that’s not love; It is coveting and manipulation and neither are biblical, much less Godly. And like I said, in some cases, not all are meant to marry as they have an assignment to fulfill (i.e. they are called/chosen to serve and man’s interests can’t be divided). Remember that God knows man’s intentions; He knows our heart and remember that the heart is deceitful and wicked above all things. If you struggle with any of this, pray about it. Remember God will not rebuke you for seeking out wisdom from Him.
Now the following is clear for those who are called and this is what I was referring to in the podcast IF it’s in God’s will;
20 Each one should remain in the condition in which he was called. 21 Were you a bondservant when called? Do not be concerned about it. (But if you can gain your freedom, avail yourself of the opportunity.) 22 For he who was called in the Lord as a bondservant is a freedman of the Lord. Likewise he who was free when called is a bondservant of Christ. 23 You were bought with a price; do not become bondservants of men. 24 So, brothers, in whatever condition each was called, there let him remain with God.
