Warnings about the End Times

Many Christian commentators as well as secular writers and newscasters are speaking today of the frightening events taking place not only in the US but the entire planet.

I was sent a post from Jeremy Hitt, Youth Pastor in Lake View, Alabama. His blog is "Attack of the Killer Blog". He recieved a message from the Lord from Isaiah 32: 9-20 on specific prophecy concerning our nation. He said he waited to release the message, waiting for God to confirm that message which He did confirm shortly afterwards. Jeremy writes that every time God has impressed something upon him, that another confirming message follows. The Lord is so faithful. Here is the message given to him June 9, 2009:



Doom to you, oh nation, for your end has come. Weeping and wailing will be your produce, for I move against you to humble you before Myself. You have not returned to Me though I have called you. I've waited patiently for your return that will not come until I strike you down. It is you who have forced My hand against yourselves. Oh, how I would have loved to be your God and for you to be My people, but you wouldn't have it. No, you preferred to chase your own gods, those you created from your own works. You wouldn't listen to Me though I warned you and warned you. You openly mock those I've sent with the message rather choosing to gather unto yourselves false teachers who speak smooth sayings~these I have NOT sent!!!!

They have built for themselves empires on the hopes of the poor and those who are heavy burdened. They have not shown My little ones My love and good news. Now they have called on themselves destruction. I will make an ash heap out of their so-called hallowed halls. Their empires will dirty the feet of My tramplings, as I alone am the champion of the weak whom these false teachers have preyed upon. This will be the lot of all those who seek their way. I will stand over them and mock their efforts with My knee firmly thrust into their throats. The weight of My glory will silence their sinful mouths and the poor will laugh at their folly. I WILL HAVE NO SUPER STARS REPRESENT ME, they only represent themselves. I am now their enemy.

In just a little over a year from now, they'll all be shaken out of their lazy lives. All that I have said I will do. My wrath is kindled against this nation and it will burn in fury. In calamity and chaos I will strike you and the world will see your fall. They will laugh at the embarrassment that you've become, oh, Great Nation. Who is so decadent now? You will fill your glasses with tears and drink their sorrows. I have warned you but you made Me your joke; I am nothing more than a punchline to you as well as My people whom you mock. You think you are so wise with your opinions and acts of fake kindness, but I see your hearts. The good things that you do are for your own benefit. You only care for your appearance, but I am going to mar your appearance. You will be un-recognizable as a man. My fists will break your face and your wealth will disappear in an hour. It is I who has picked this fight with you now and you will be destroyed.

The righteous need not worry. For I am your sustainer. This is not a lesson they need to learn, for the righteous know in whom they have believed. Take courage for I am your champion. I will defend you. My judgment is reserved not for you, oh righteous, but for the wicked. Keep trusting Me, I will not fail you, nor have I ever failed you. My records are sure, look to them for I will sustain the righteous as I always have. I am coming quickly...do not despair, little ones.

The Lord's message as received from Isaiah 32.



I don't know about you, but I am convinced that this truly is a Word from Almighty God Himself!! All you have to do is open the newspaper or watch the news channels to see where our precious country is headed. Most people are more interested in American Idol or some reality show, "REALITY?" than the condition of their own hearts and souls. How sad to think that the name of Christ is no more than a joke or a curse word. God is merciful and slow to anger but there is a limit to His patience. His Word should be our anchor and the Blood of Jesus our only hope in this wicked world.

June 7, 2009 Childrens Sunday School Class

Here are a few of the children who visit at Winfield City Family Church. Shown above from left to right : Dakota Smith, Austin Charles, Devon Charles, Patrick Charles, Pastor Smith, David Banta. Emily Smith, Zoe Smith, Molly Smith, & Victoria. Also shown above in back ground is Sister Margie Henderson. We thank God for the children He has sent for our love & care.

Ps 127:33 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.(KJV)

Please pray for these children--We have 6 attending Discovery Camp next week.

Pentecost Sunday

Brother Smith will be in Youth Camp this week. Pray that hundreds of kids will be saved and filled with the Spirit. Contact Bro. Dewayne if you need info (dates and ages.)

There will be a March/Rally in Montgomery for the rights of the unborn Saturday June 13th. See Marcus and Betty McDonald for details, and where to meet to attend this rally.

WCFC had a great song service Sunday with a message in tongues. Today is Pentecost Sunday, the only Feast that you have to count the number of days after Easter (50 days) to know when it will be. Read Acts 2. We don't need to be afraid of Pentecost-we need these truths.

"When the Presence of God is in the church, it will draw the world in, but if it's not in the church, the world will draw the church into the world." Food for thought, don't you thing?

We see some parallels between Passover and Pentecost:

Passover was represented by: wood, lamb, blood When the Death Angel saw the blood on the doors, he would pass over that house and spare the firstborn.
Pentecost was represented by: wood-the cross, the Lamb of God, Jesus, and the Blood of Christ

Passover was a symbol, but now we have the REAL thing! Praise the Lord!!

Be Filled with the Spirit

Bro. Todd always presents our SS Lesson in such a way even I can understand it. This past Sunday morning the lesson was about how we need the Holy Spirit for boldness and comfort. In Numbers 11:14 Moses needed help. "I am not able to bear all this people alone, because it is too heavy for me." Sound familiar?

Tho' we are not called on to undertake the massive task God had prepared for Moses, we still need the help of our loving Father. Everyday. EVERYDAY. When the Spirit came on the people of old, they would testify. Just as the Lord gathered seventy men of the elders to be a help to Moses, He appoints others to be a help to us, and also, allows us to help others in this life. What a priviledge and blessing to be used of the Lord!

We feel we are in the valley when we stand in need of a miracle many times. A man in class Sunday morning pointed out that ONLY when we are in the valley, can we see an aspect of the love and care of Jesus as the Lily of the Valley, and as written in Psalms 23, our Shepherd, "He leads me beside the still waters...". Where else in life could we be to experience Jesus as such a Friend? God help us all to remember that the Lord is our Rock, our Salvation, our Help in time of trouble, our Confidence, our Hiding Place, our Strength, our Defense, our Refuge, our Comforter, our Trust, our Shield, our Merciful and Loving Father, our Peace and our Joy! When the storms come, and they will, it is good to think of Psalms 34:19. "Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all." We just have to hold onto those promises that 'God doeth all things well'.
