Whilst away last weekend I had many special times, it is one one these, 'special times' that I have been encourage to share with you.

During my few days away my spirit was no doubt lifted by the joy of meeting Christian friends I have not seen for some time, friends who are really close to my heart and have experienced first hand many wonderful things and answered prayers our Lord has done in my life. (That is another story, a testimony that can be shared at another time, a testimony that many already know and have been a very important part of.)

During my time away I also had a special time to relax and be on my own. A time we all need so that we can spend more time in the presence of God. How wonderful these times can be when we not only take time to pray but also take time to listen.

It was during one of these special times the following happened......

I was in prayer when suddenly I saw an image of the twin towers of the World Trade Center. In an instant I saw the first tower billowing with smoke and an aeroplane about to hit the side of the second tower. I wanted to shout inside me, as no doubt many have, but I didn't have time to think as it all happened so quickly.

I continued in prayer, in total submission, and felt drawn into everything that seemed to be happening around me but I was never allowed to see to much, it was all happening so quickly.

Suddenly the whole scene changed.....
There was a trumpet call and our Lord was returning, I didn't know where to look and could only look upwards. I was then drawn towards the light, whiter than white it was, an experience I have had only once before. I was totally overwhelmed, those of you who have experienced this will know right away what I am saying.

Again the scene suddenly changed.....
It was as if for that split second I was allowed to see what was happening. I then saw an aeroplane flying against a blue and peaceful sky, suddenly the pilot and others were being raised from the plane to be with the Lord. The aeroplane then nose dived and crashed to the ground killing many of those on board that had not be raise to be with the Lord .

I looked down again and could see people walking around, some were shopping, some were caring for children, some were getting married, some were worshipping, some were driving their cars, everything seemed to be carrying on in it's usual worldly fashion that was until this 'split second' when Jesus returned in Great Glory just has he had promised he would.

I then saw some of the people I saw were being raised up to be with the Lord yet others were sadly left behind. There was no time to think, it all happened in a split second. People were being raised up from their cars and vehicles were crashing into each other and buildings everywhere. It was total and utter turmoil. I could see people crying and screaming. They were crying for those who had been hurt, crying for those that were injured or killed and they were crying and screaming for those that were missing also, those that were being raised up to be with the Lord.

Scripture flashed at every scene...
''There will be two in a field and one will be taken....... '' (Matthew 24:40 + Luke 17:36)
''Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and the other left.......''
(Matthew 24:41 + Luke 17:35)

There will be two in an aeroplane and one will be taken (one may be the pilot)
There will be two in a car and one will be taken (one may be the driver) and on and on it all went. There will be two doing this or doing that and only the one that is Truly Born Again and received the Holy Ghost according to God's Word and Jesus' teaching will be taken home to be with him forever.

''Watch therefore, for you do not know at what hour your Lord is coming.......'' (Mt24:42)

The message is no doubt one of urgency for the True Church the one our Lord calls in Ephesians 5:27 His Glorious Church. It is without doubt a message to pray as time is short, I do not need to quote scripture here we all know so well. The message is also one of warning that though we grieve what happened on the 11 September, and rightfully so, what will happen when our Lord returns will be a double edged sword. It will be wonderful for the true born again believer and hell on earth for those who thought they were saved or who are lost. It will be the start of even worse things, lawlessness, anarchy, marshal war, one world religion, etc, etc, which in turn will lead up to the final judgement that will be even worse than anything experienced to that day.

May the church of Christ RISE UP, the Glorious Church, the born again believers, Jews and Gentiles, faithful Prayer Warriors, Christian soldiers for Christ.

May we ALL RISE UP in prayers of Repentance and Praise, may we all pray unceasingly for every lost soul in the world. regardless of colour, faith, creed, regardless of sex or age, regardless of denomination or any other difference.

May we take hold of the Word, in our hearts, as it is written and meant and talk of the Church as it is, born again believers Jews and Gentiles, the body of Christ, the Bride of Christ, the Glorious Church the only church acceptable in the eyes of our Lord.

We are all God's children but not all children of God. But we can be!!!

Thank you for taking time to read this message it is no doubt one of urgency.
Urgency to 'prepare ourselves' and make sure we have not been misguided.
Urgency to pray for those that are lost and those that are misguided (which are also lost)
Urgency to pray not just for ouerselves but for those we love and all God's children.

Remember always, tomorrow could be to late.
Jesus is coming again in Great Glory...
Faster than we can say ''Lord I repent and accept you as my Lord and Saviour!''

May our Lord bless you, guide you and protect you, may he raise His Spirit in you to His Glory. May he take you and use you to do his will and may souls be saved in Jesus mighty, most precious and loving name.

Don't just listen to the Word
Find a quiet place, and have a special time
Open your Bible's and repent before the Lord, ask God in prayer to reveal the secrets of his heart in The Word to you by the power of the Holy Ghost.
Ask him to correct any wrongful thoughts you may have or any misunderstandings you may have. After all you need to know it is your life.

Pray to the Father though Jesus Christ, no one else.
No one comes to the Father except through the Son (John 6:44, John 6:65, Hebrew1:2)
All authority in heaven and on earth was given to Jesus (Matthew 28:18-20)

Pray for the Lord's hand to be upon your Pastor's and Minister's also and that they will be guided by the Truth revealed in the Living Word by the Power of the Holy Ghost.
Our prayers are with you

Remember Jesus' words to Mary at the Wedding Feast
Do whatever he tells you.

Jesus loves you, I do too
