Fall of Islam

Strife caused by the Islamic world's hatred of Israel and all who ally with Israel has brought unrest, fear and the spread of terrorism across the globe. In start contrast to this curse stands God's promise in Genesis to Abraham, father of both these people groups.

. . . Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him. Genesis 18:18 (Author's emphasis.)

Surely this promise is fulfilled in Abraham's heir through Sarah, who gave birth to the son of God's promise and ultimately the Messiah. But Abraham had other sons, who certainly qualify for this and God's repeated promises to Abraham regarding his seed, such as

At this historic moment, the nations of the earth face the ominous threat of terror and anarchy primarily generated by the sons of Abraham through Hagar, the mother of Ishmael, and Keturah, the mother of Zimran, Jokshan, Midan, Midian, Ishback and Shuah. These sons of Abraham sired many nations of the Islamic world. Surely the nations suffer from a curse, not a blessing, which arises from these heirs of Abraham.

God plans to fulfill his promise to Abraham in this prophetic hour. he plans to remedy the planet's overwhelming problem, terror, by reconciling the sons of Abraham--all the descendants of Ishmael and the sons of Keturah with their blood-brother, Israel.

A great battle for the destiny of Islam and its allegiance to Allah is ready to erupt. Intercessors are raised up and worshippers are aligned at the battle stations. Watchmen are in place along the wall. The troops are arranged and arrayed for battle, a mighty troop under one banner. All is ready and in place by the power of the Lord of Hosts and His Holy Spirit.

God used a woman, Jael, to bring down the enemy commander, Sisera, in the prophetic story of Deborah and Barak's battle. This story is told in Judges 4 and 5. Likewise, God will use a woman to bring down a ruthless commander who instills violence in the followers of Islam. The "woman" operating in the spirit of Jael is the woman of the Muslim world. The brutal enemy commander is Allah, god of Islam. Later in this article, we will explore the role of the Islamic women, the praying church, God's angels and the Holy Spirit in the battle over Islam which is soon to come. First, we need to look at the origins of Allah--who he is, where he came from and what the Most High God plans for him now.

In all of this, keep in mid the greatness of God's heart and the depth of His mercy and love, that He would in the face of violence and hatred ordain a move which will result in the restoration of brotherhood between Israel and its enemy, the Islamic world. This new and blessed unity, which will bless the nations of the earth, will come about through Abraham's pre-eminent son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who is their Messiah.

Sit in silence and go into darkness, O Daughter of the Chaldeans; for you shall no more be called the lady and the mistress of kingdoms. Isaiah 47:5

A great spiritual battle over Islam, with a Muslim harvest for the Church and possible dire repercussions for Israel, hangs in the balance today. The intercessors must pray, for the rage of a deposed demonic “god” must be averted and overcome. God’s perfect will must be accomplished.

A great compassion, the compassion of Jesus for the Muslim people, must overtake those praying. We must repent of our hatred and condemnation of the “enemy” who perpetrated 9-11 and repeated other attacks upon us and upon Israel. We war not against flesh and blood but against our real enemy, the devil. We must knit our hearts together with the heart of Jesus, who died on the Cross for these people as well as for us.

While political correctness, including respect and tolerance of all peoples is a shared value, we do not owe that respect to our enemy, Satan. The text to follow unmasks and exposes Satan while maintaining an attitude of love, compassion, respect and mercy for the Muslim peoples, who are made in the image and likeness of God.

Islam, a religion followed by millions of Arabic, Asian and other peoples, is coming down. Its God, Allah, counterfeits the one true God of the Judaic-Christian faith. Those who worship Allah remain in bondage to a god who sought worshippers from man’s earliest history in ancient Babylon. In fact, this “god” is Satan, formerly called Lucifer, who in heaven attempted to usurp the preeminence and worship due to the Most High.

Disguised as a serpent Satan invaded the garden of Eden, located near the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. Later, in this same region he set up worship of himself in the religion of the ancient Chaldeans at Babylon in present-day Iraq. When worship of this god of Babylon, who took the name Marduk, was crushed along with the Babylonian empire by the Persian leader, Cyrus, in Old Testament times, the idol continued to seduce worship as Bel or Baal often lamented by Old Testament prophets as an idol corrupting Israel. As empires rose and fell, this same spirit may have taken the identity of the Greek god, Zeus, and the Roman god, Jupiter.

Just after the year 600 (remember 6 is the Biblical number of man), an angel appeared to Muhammad, revealing a god of light who is to alone be worshipped. Light once characterized Lucifer, whose name literally means “light bringer.” He lost his glorious position in heaven for attaining to the position of the Most High. Muhammad received a counterfeit god and a counterfeit Bible called the Qur’an. Since then, Satan has attempted to create a false “holy nation” from the seed of Ishmael to worship him alone.

Here is what God has said about Islam, Allah and the spirit of Babylon in a prophetic word received March 28, 2003:

“Allah is god of the tribe of Ishmael, false god of the Babylonians revisited, repackaged, ‘resurrected,’ if you will. He is the anti-Christ spirit, the anti-Anointed One. He will be exposed for what he is. He hates the Jews, his rival. Counterfeit god, counterfeit kingdom, counterfeit nation, counterfeit religion.

Satan has a whole people now who bow down to him and worship. Their lives are organized to worship him with their whole heart, soul, mind and being. I am not God to them. This is the ancient god of the Chaldeans, Bel, who is brought back to life by Muhammad the prophet and still lives today. Counterfeit. Islam is a counterfeit of Christianity. It will not stand. It is coming down. Know that I am God.”

Note: The name of the Babylonian god “Bel” is the Akkadian form of “Baal,” the idol often mentioned in the Old Testament. Bel is another name for Marduk, the Babylonian idol called “King of Kings.” Marduk ranked as chief of a pantheon of gods. Akkad was an early region of northern Babylon. Akkadian is an extinct language of ancient Mesopotamia. Chaldea was an ancient province of Babylonia in the region of the lower courses of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. The Chaldeans were astrologers, magicians, and practiced occult lore.

Marduk, the age-old god of the Chaldeans was, like Satan, a usurper. According to the great Babylonian epic, Enuma elish (“When on high…”) he seized the rank of the patron god of Nippur, Enlil, whose name meant “Lord Air.” (The Bible identifies Satan as prince of the power of the air.) Enuma elish describes Marduk in words that sound like the Old Testament description of Satan:

“Perfect were his members beyond comprehension… when he moved his lips, fire blazed forth… He was the loftiest of the gods, surpassing was his stature.”

When the god Marduk seized the position and worship of the high god, Enlil, he again sounded like Satan. According to the Enuma elish Marduk said,

“Set up the assembly, proclaim supreme my destiny, let my word instead of yours, determine the fates.” After saying this, according to the epic, he ”clad himself with the armor of terror, a turban of fearsome halo.”

Similarly, the prophet Isaiah described Satan’s attempt to usurp the position of the Most High:

“How you are fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! How you are cut down to the ground, You who weakened the nations! For you have said in your heart: ’I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God; I will also sit on the mount of the congregation on the farthest sides of the north I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High.’” Isaiah 14:12-14

‘You were in Eden, the garden of God; Every precious stone was your covering: The sardius, topaz and diamond, beryl onyx and jasper, Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold… You were the anointed cherub who covers; I established you; You were on the holy mountain of God… You were perfect in your ways from the day you were created, Till iniquity was found in you…

Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor.” Ezekiel 28:13-17

Bel was the idol who stole Israel’s worship from God in the Old Testament. An ancient chronicle of Mesopotamia identifies Bel as Marduk The chronicle says that during a time of unrest the annual festival procession carry the idol image from one temple to another did not occur and “Bel (Marduk) went not forth”.

The Bible also links Marduk (also called Merodach in Jeremiah 50:2) with Bel. The verse says, “Say ‘Babylon is taken, Bel is shamed. Merodach is broke in pieces; Her idols are humiliated.” The Bible footnote to this verse says, “Merodach (or Marduk) was the chief god of Babylon and Bel was a title of Marduk.” Israel worshipped the same god, sometimes using the Canaanite title, “Baal,” when they strayed from God. “Baal-zebub” described in 2 Kings 1:2 was the same Beelzebub mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 10:25 as the devil. In Luke 3:22 scoffing Israelites watching the deliverances and healings of Jesus, said, “He casts out demons by Beelzebub, the ruler of demons.” That is Satan.

Allah shares the characteristics of Marduk, Bel and Satan. Like them, Allah attains to the preeminence of the Most High. First of all, Allah derives his name from Eloah, the name of the Hebrew God. The more familiar Elohim is the plural form of Eloah. This name, Elohim, appears in Genesis 1:26 when God says, Let us make man in our image after our likeness. The name God used to identify Himself there was Elohim, using the plural to reveal the Trinity. Jehovah-Elohim was one God, literally “The One to Be Worshipped.” Eloah, the singular of that high name, is the name translated “Allah.”

Allah is primarily the god of light, according to Albert Hourani in The History of the Arab Peoples. Satan, the “daystar and son of the morning,” appears an “an angel of light.” Marduk, before he usurped power from Enlil, “the lord of heaven and earth,” was a local Mesopotamian sun god, again a god of light.

Like Marduk and Satan, Allah has essential attributes including supernatural senses, hearing, sight and speech far above human abilities. Describing Marduk, the Enuma elish states, “Four were his eyes, four were his ears…large were all four hearing organs. And the eyes, in like number, scanned all things.”

When Satan tempted Jesus in the desert he concluded his three tests by taking the Messiah to a pinnacle of the Jerusalem temple, when he asked Jesus to throw himself down. On that same temple mount he has established worship in the Dome of the Rock. He has appropriated the worship due to Most High, who in Genesis 49:24 was revealed as “the Rock of Israel.”

The following are prophetic words received by the author over a period of years on the subject of Islam:

June 7, 2003 “Now Allah is the prince of darkness. He may come as an angel of light and deceive many but don’t be fooled. He IS Satan. His true character is coming out in the terror and jihad that you see. He has made himself like God, taking the title “the Rock” in the Dome of the Rock He has set himself up for worship on the temple mount, the site of the sanctuary of God. Therefore I will exert My holy power now through My people, My “willing ones.” (Psalm 110:3) And the law shall go forth out of Zion, My dwelling place (in the hearts of My people) to bring down, to cast down his kingdom in one single hour. Watch it and see; I want My witnesses on duty and My watchmen alert.”

It is possible that after the succession of major world empires following the fall of Rome, Satan no longer wanted to be chief in a pantheon of gods worshipped by man. He may have wanted to “exalt his throne above the stars of God,” to be like the Most High, that is, god alone.

In a prophetic words received between March and May, 2003 (which are re-arranged by theme, out of their chronological order) the Lord said to this writer:

May 29, 2003: “Yes, I AM God, the Most High. Why did the devil wait until the sixth century after Christ? (Six is the number of man; 666 is the number of the anti-Christ.) This is the spirit of anti-Christ, not the anti-Christ. It is the spirit of anti-the-Anointed-One, against My son, Jesus. Is this not the reason Lucifer revolted anyway? He saw the glory of My Son, Jesus, raised up above him. He saw My plan for man’s salvation.”

May 10, 2003 “Now I AM God and I will say this: Allah is dead; Jesus is not. He is alive and well, shining in the light of His glory, His brilliance and radiance. When I say Allah is dead, I mean this: His time is over. His power is crushed. His followers are scattered. He is finished. For he is Satan, that old master of disguise, masquerading as an angel of light. By their fruits you will know them. He is unmasked as Satan himself seeking worship, seeking a people, a ‘holy nation,’ to bow before him and worship. Now I will judge this usurper and you will see Islam come down, a mighty work of God. It is finished, says the Lord. Open your arms, church, to receive the refugees of Islam. They will come in. Disillusionment will characterize them. Give them a reason to believe. Show them the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ and His cross. This will win them over like no other thing because it is real and genuine and authentic. Let them come unto Jesus, says the Lord.”

March 13, 2003 “Watchman on the wall, speak it out: ‘Babylon is fallen.’ Enforce the edict written: Say, ‘Islam is fallen.’ The king of Babylon will be deposed. The ancient spirit is Allah today. The ramifications of your declaration, ‘Babylon is fallen’ are huge. The Lord of Hosts is directing a battle against it on many fronts. America is just one of them. Prayer is another. Go forward knowing that your God is arrayed for battle and for victory. Your praise helps! Stay close at My side like Josephine did with Napoleon, for I need My bride and My beloved to comfort Me and give Me respite from battle. Let Me be refreshed at your stream. (Ps. 110:7) Stay close to Me, says the Lord, and I will also stay close to you.”

False god, Allah False holy book, the Qur’an False holy place on Jerusalem temple site, the Dome of the Rock (Inscriptions on the dome call upon Christians to recognize Jesus as an apostle of God but not His Son.) False “holy nation”

When the patriarch Abraham tried to make God’s promise of a son and a “great nation” happen by his own human will, he went to his wife’s servant girl, Hagar, who conceived Ishmael. In Genesis 16, God says of Ishmael, “A wild-ass of a man he will be, against every man and every man against him, setting himself to defy all his brothers.” Ishmael’s descendants are the Arab people.

Ishmael lived in Abraham’s household until his wife, Sarah, sent Ishmael away for “scoffing” or “persecuting” her baby, Isaac. Isaac was the promised son of the covenant that God made with Abraham. Banished from the land of milk and honey to the desert, Ishmael became a bowman. The tribe of one of Ishmael’s sons, Kedar, is mentioned in the Bible as archers.

God promised he would make a great nation of Ishmael as well as Isaac and gave Ishmael twelve sons. But He did not promise to make them His covenant people nor give the Messiah through them. God always wanted a chosen generation, a peculiar people, a holy nation for His own. Satan attained to the same goal. His worldwide worship system, Islam, will fall.

April 22, 2003 “Ishmael-Israel. This is the conflict of the century, the root conflict of the age. It demonstrates Abraham’s sin and the consequences of the sin of someone singled out and chosen. They have higher responsibility a higher dimension to all their acts, good or bad. Ishmael is rising up in the last days with fierce anger against his brother. Both are beloved of God as Abraham loved both. What will this anger precipitate? Look at Ezekiel 38-39, for it is written there. This is the consequence of Ishmael’s anger.”

November 19, 2003 Ishmael: I have no covenant with Ishmael although My love for him and My blessings upon him are clearly stated in the Bible. He is Abraham’s son! Would I not love and cherish him? And yet, the time for establishing and re-affirming the covenant has come, and Ishmael will be judged for his wrong-doing, which is not covered by the covenant blood. His violence and the shedding of blood has come up to My face and his stench has filled My nostrils. Though I love Ishmael, I will judge his self-will and pride. Now is the time to pray that he and his nation will choose life, that he and his descendants may live.

“Even the captives of the mighty will be taken away and the prey of the terrible will be delivered.” Isaiah 49:21

A battle will ensue, pitting two great cities, Jerusalem and Babylon, against one another. The Lord has said:

March 31, 2003 (during the Iraqi war) “Jerusalem versus Babylon: These are the two great archetypal cities of the Bible. Cities are strongholds, power bases, the city-seats of government. It is the pitting of good against evil, God against the devil, Satan, that age-old serpent. This is what it's all about and this is what characterizes the great battle that is going on now. Islam is My target right now. The battle has erupted from the spiritual realm into the earthly realm but it is a spiritual battle. That is why the Bible says all the prophets, saints and apostles rejoice at the destruction of Babylon.’ (Rev. 18:20)

February 10, 2003 “You will be a small part of a great army sent forth in brilliant, shining garments and the world will turn, turn aside, to look at this great army. This army does victory. The results of its heavenly warfare are assured from all eternity. This army wrestles from the devil ‘the prey of the terrible.’ Easily. All will be done easily in My power. Your enemies will fall before you. I have promised this long ago and it will be true today. I say it. Go then into the larger world from your cocoon. I will be with you, My people!”

March 18, 2003 (During the Iraq war) ”Yesterday and tomorrow will not be the same. A line of demarcation has been drawn in the sand. This is the beginning of the defeat of Islam and the battle of the end times. Mark this day, for things will be different from now on, says the Lord. Your life will continue the same but your world will be a different place. Be led by the Spirit of God, for now the times are critical. Know your God and act in deeds initiated by Him. Follow the Lord, in His footsteps, as He leads you like a shepherd. You will be safe and protected that way.

April 23, 2003 “Now I go, says the Lord. I go at the head of My army, My bold army, to lead them into victory unimagined until this hour. The enemy will fall before them, as the Iraqis did, will melt before them, will evaporate before them. See, the Iraqi war is a good sign. It demonstrates heaven’s superior fire power over the weak, demonic-driven forces of the enemy. It demonstrates also that war is not pretty. There will be collateral damage, some looting and chaos for a while. But with determination and resolve, following a heavenly battle plan and a heavenly Lord of Hosts, the outcome will be freedom, justice, liberty and ultimately restoration. Watch this war as a picture of the heavenly battle.”

April 3, 2003 “’Babylon is fallen. Her idols lie broken on the ground’ There is a holy fire burning in the Middle East and it is not oil well fires. As you praise, My Holy Spirit is appearing to Muslim priests and leaders, to young boys and girls, to women, and showing them Jesus, their true Lord. He is changing their lives in an instant. They are falling head over heels in love with Him. There will be a revolution when this fire catches hold. Wait and you will see it, says the Lord of Hosts.”

April 24, 2003 ”The baalim are the false gods. There is a host of them. They are ugly and dejected and venomous in their hatred of God and God’s true people. They are demons. But yet your power over them is as your power over a gnat. Use it.”

December 18, 2003: Daniel 3:1 King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, ninety feet high and nine feet wide and set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon.

Sadaam Hussein, in his reign of terror, hate and destruction, lifted himself up with pride to attain the status of God. The figurehead, the huge statue of Sadaam that TV cameras showed during the taking of Baghdad, has come down. The statue is reminiscent of Nebuchadnezzar. Now (in his capture by U.S. forces) the man has come up from the pit of the earth, disheveled, homeless despite his many huge palaces. Like the fall of Nebuchadnezzar, this is an omen for the coming judgment that evil leaders and gods will come down and highly placed men will hide among the rocks. (Isaiah 2: 10 Go into the rocks, hide in the ground from dread of the Lord and the splendor of his majesty! Isaiah 22:3 All your leaders have fled together; they have been captured without using the bow.)

America will serve as a rod in God’s hand toward arrogant nations and toward Islam. The first time God spoke this series of words on Islam early in 2003, He emphasized America’s role:

January 9, 2003 “I am the Lord of the nations. See what I will do in 2003 among the nations who have vaunted themselves forth with pride and arrogance. I will judge them and bring them to ruin. Your nation, America, will be a rod in My hand. Many will die. But I will exert My justice through you, and in doing so, cleanse and preserve you. It is My will. So prepare for war--war-time conditions, hardship, lean times, shortages--because America will face her destiny in this hour. I will be with you, America, as your God and as a Father who is disciplining you even as I use you to accomplish My purpose of judging the nations. Islam is My target. You are My arrow, straight and sure. I will shoot you into the heart of Islam with one straight, clean shot.”

The church has a key role and that is to pray. The church must declare, “Babylon is fallen,” according to Jeremiah 50:2 The Lord wants the intercessors and prayer warriors to declare among the nations the edict written by proclaiming, “Babylon is fallen: Islam is fallen!”

April 4, 2003 “Islam is a sham that has enslaved millions of people. Believe Me when I say it is coming down. I involve you in prayer, giving you revelation, because My people will participate with me in the day of My power--today. (Ps. 110:3) Realize that Islam is coming down. Your world will change. A great many people will be looking for God, a true God, and the church, embroiled in division, is ill-equipped to handle the influx. There will be a new church arising to meet the challenge, all in the power of the Spirit of God. Like a river, like a flood, the Spirit of God will raise up a standard--My blood-washed people--for the world to rally around. You see, things will really change. That is why we must pray for the nations, for the Lord of Hosts, Jesus, to bring about these mass changes in people groups. Oh, pray, My church, My beloved, for the captives of Islam to be released into the family and household of God! Let prodigal nations return to the Father. It is all possible in Him, Christ Jesus, if we only believe and act on that belief in prayer and in accepting the assignments the Holy Spirit gives us.”

February 6, 2004 Psalm 148:7,11-13 : Praise the Lord from the earth...kings of the earth and all nations, you princes and all rulers on earth, young men and maidens, old men and children. Let them praise the name of the Lord, for his name alone is exalted.

I Am God! I alone deserve the praise from all creation. Throughout human history, this praise has gone to another. Satan, in all his forms as an angel of light, has commanded the praise of men come to him. And yet I created them and placed them in the earth-world that I fashioned and made just for them. This will stop now. No longer will I tolerate Satan abasing My people with his worship. I will separate the wheat and the tares. I now have a people in the earth, a holy nation, that worships Me all out. They are tested and tried, and they are true. This, the dram of God's heart, is fulfilled and now the judgment--recompense and reward for them--shall begin at My right hand. That is Jesus, the Lord of Hosts, to whom it is given to judge, because He took the Cross and died for them. if they would have accepted it, all would be different. Instead, judgment will come. Expect your reward but be sure to allow sin no inroad in your life for judgment will be severe. No fence straddling, no exceptions will be allowed.

March 8, 2004 What are you praying when you pray over Islam in the spirit? I will tell it to you: You are praying that Allah will be dis-alloyed, dis-amalgamated, un-embedded and un-wedded from the hearts of the people who worship him. You are praying for a separation of something that has been welded in. It is a deep work of separation that only God the Holy Spirit can do. It is going on now. Hearts are being changed, being separated out, being dis-engaged from Allah. It is heart surgery of the most challenging and delicate kind, removing a growth that is embedded and amalgamated in the very heart of men who worship and serve Allah.

A key prayer target is Israel, which is hated by Islam. God spoke a word on this in mid-April:

April 16, 2003 “Listen! Listen diligently, says the Lord. (Isaiah 21:7)) Watchmen on the wall, hear Me as I speak: what do you see? I ask you again, what do you see? A troop of terrorists coming on camels from the East, a terror out of Arabia coming on My people. For the revenge for this (Iraqi) war will be taken out on Israel, not America. My people, Israel, whom they have hated since ancient times, will be their target. America they cannot reach but Israel they can. It is a land of unwalled villages. Watchmen on the wall, begin to pray for Israel in a new way, that the archers of Kedar will not rain their arrows/missiles upon them effectively or with accuracy and that Ishmael may not turn his anger against his brother. Always he has lived in the desert while his brother dwelt in the Promised Land. Always his anger seethed. Now the outcome of years of anger will be foisted on his brother, Israel. You will see. Pray for Israel now, that God’s best will be achieved. They have returned to their Promised Land but they have not loved their God.”

As we pray, the battle will intensify. The Iraq war stands as a natural symbol of the battle in the spiritual. The enemy will fall before us. But temptation to fear will persist and the hardship of war will threaten to wear us down. Before the Iraq war, the Lord spoke this which applies both to the natural war America and Britain fought as well as the spiritual war in the heavenlies:

March 14, 2003 “Go then in full understanding of the times, which seem harsh. But God is in control. When war breaks out--and it will--fear not. Trust the God of your salvation for everything. He will be right there with you. Your comfortable, satisfying life will be over, but truly I say you will enter into your destiny.”

I am Eloah. Allah has taken My name and used it—identity theft and a violation of Me. Now I will rise up against him in My people who are given My authority. This (Christian) fast of prayer for the 40 days of Ramadan is a weapon I have formed against him and it will prosper.

November 6, 2003 The battle in the Arab world is coming where I will throw down kingdoms by turning brother against (violent) brother. It will be a work of the sovereign God alone; it will fulfill Biblical prophecy and no man can claim it. Prepare for war! For the Muslim world will be torn apart by its own violence. It is written, those who live by the sword will die by the sword. Know that this is coming to your world and that it is a work of God. But, oh, pray for My mercy because My merciful heart also would be unburdened to this people dear to My heart.

November 8, 2003: I am God. I will tolerate no other god. Islam has risen up before Me as a stench in My nostrils and an insolent taunt from Satan, that he has multiplied millions enthralled. Listen to Me as I speak: I will destroy his kingdom in a single day, a single hour. You will see it and rejoice, though the turmoil will be great. Know and understand then that this is coming. I release, release your prophecy. I have spoken.

November 10, 2003 I AM the Lord your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. Love, fear and revere me. Turn to Me, says the Lord of Hosts, for My hour and My Day has come. Kiss the Son, lest He receive another in your place. Tremble before Him for He is a mighty king, a warrior king, in battle array. The battle belongs to the Lord. Now come, come unto Me in a new way, says the Lord, simply, lovingly, faithfully, as an oasis of peace and calm in the chaos of battle. Be at rest and at peace that I might find serenity in your arms. Be My respite; let Me drink at your brook, your refreshing brook, and thus raise My head. Magnify My name. Let praise be heard in heaven. Let the shout of the earth rise to heaven now for the battle for the nations has begun and the Lord Himself undertakes the battle as Captain of the Host. The prophesied battle of the ages has begun.

Psalm 110:7 He will drink from a brook beside the way; therefore He will lift up His head.

March 16, 2003 “Let it be said of your God for all eternity, Surely I protected My own during the time of crisis to come over the whole earth. Surely I sheltered My own, protecting them from even a hint of fear, so sure were they of My salvation. Let it be said of your God for all eternity, Surely He was faithful at that fateful moment in human history. Now go with an attitude and a knowledge of My unfaltering protection and love in the time shortly to come. I will be with you strongly and surely and irrevocably. My word in Psalm 91 is already spoken on the matter. So cling to Me. Do not let go in any wavering of fear or doubt Because this is what I want--and need--to see from you, and I will unfalteringly protect you.”

March 8, 2003 “Behold your God! He is restoring even in a time of judgment. He is loosing the captives, even amidst chaos and darkness. Paul and Silas' jail cell blew open in midnight darkness. So fear not the darkness; it is no problem for Me. Fear not judgment, nor fear the uncertain times. They do not tie My hands. Despite earthly chaos and trouble, I AM, and I am in control, and I have a plan for good which I am relentlessly carrying out. You will look back from heaven and rejoice that you lived in this time of darkness and unrest, for there, you will say, we first saw the glory of God. “

God is doing a great work and He wants to involve us. “His people shall be willing in the day of His power.” Psalm 110:3 Let us rally round The Lord of Hosts, our Messiah King, in this day of His power. He has said:

March 12, 2003 The times are crucial. The times are hard, Fear reigns, just as I predicted. Am I not God in the midst of all this? Am I not still Lord? Shudder not at the terror of the Chaldeans nor tremble at the judgment forthcoming. Tremble before the Lord, your God, in holy awe and fear of the Lord. ‘Fear not,’ is My command all through the Bible. Stop the fear, Oh, My people, for it does not honor Me. Don't fall apart in the shaking but hold steady to honor and reverence your God. My people will glorify Me. I have strengthened and hardened them as a steel blade and they will go to the heart of Islam to be sure. It is prophesied and it is written, says the Lord, ‘Babylon is fallen.’

This prophecy is a call to intercessors to pray, especially for God’s perfect will to be done in Israel. The intercessors and the spiritual warriors must declare what Isaiah, Jeremiah and the Book of Revelation all command us to proclaim, “Babylon is fallen.”

November 12, 2003 Ramadan. What does it mean? Satan, the enemy, knows the power of 40 days of fasting. He knows the power of human prayer because of what I invested of My Self in the human person. This he has attempted to seize through all the ages of human history—the mind, heart and soul of man, My creation. When My people afflict themselves in fasting and turn their hearts in prayer to Satan, the archenemy, then that is a powerful spiritual force. Make no mistake that its powerful effects are seen in the earth. The unleashing of more brutal and evil violence and terror are some of these effects.

What can My people do? Fast and pray, for their power is greater and their God is bigger, beyond infinity. Let them ask their Lord for an end to Babylon, that spiritual empire that now dominates the world. Let them ask and I will give it, says the Lord. Amen.

December 4, 2003: Revelation 14:1,5: Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads. No lie was found in their mouths; they are blameless.

No lie is upon their lips, nothing but the word of the Most High God., His word speaking LIFE into situations, speaking righteous judgment, as in “Babylon is fallen.” Now then, I want you to tell all who will listen to pray for Babylon is fallen. Her idols lay smashed and broken upon the ground. What does that mean? The whole system of religion of false gods, including Allah worship and Catholicism with Mary/Ishtar is coming down. Worship is your theme during all of this, those “springs” or fountains that are mentioned sound familiar, don’t they? Your God is pulling all this together and the angels are going out to make the proclamations. My people will join them. Watch and see as Babylon is fallen. Babylon is Islam but also all other false religions, the system of Satan. They are ALL coming down, one by one. It will cause chaos. You will see it.

In God’s prophetic view, a "day" equals a thousand years. Since He sent His Son, 2000 years have passed (two prophetic days) and we are now beginning the third 1000 years—or the Third Day. The Old Testament (Psalm 90) and the New Testament both confirm that …with the Lord one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day. (2 Peter 3:8)

o On the third day of His creation, God made the sun to rule over the day and to divide the day from night. When God called forth the sun, He declared that it is a sign.

o On the third day, Yahweh manifested His glory on Mount Sinai amidst cloud, thunder and lightning. He demonstrated His splendor in the sight of Moses and all Israel.

o On the third day, Joshua led a cleansed and prepared people across the Jordan, then at the height of its annual flood stage. The people crossed the river dry shod into the Promised Land.

o On the third day, Jesus, the Messiah, arose from the grave in a mighty blast of resurrection power.

Right now, we find ourselves on the morning of the Third Day of Christ, that is the third 1000-year period of Jesus, the Messiah, the Anointed One. We need to be awake, alert to the Holy Spirit as Mary Magdalene was. She was the first to see the resurrected Christ because she woke “very early on the third day.”

When the Holy Spirit wants us to look at an Old Testament event that has a fulfillment in the New Testament and a future fulfillment in the last days (or the Third Day), He often puts 3’s all over it. (Take a look at the story of Hosea’s marriage to Gomer, especially Hosea 6:1-2) in the Old Testament:

Come let us return to the Lord; For He has torn, but he will heal us…After two days he will revive us; on the third day He will raise us up that we may live in His sight. Hosea 6:1-2 Emphasis mine.

The description of the wedding at Cana in the New Testament emphasizes the third-day theme. On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee…John 2:1

The Holy Spirit is speaking the union of Christ with His bride on the Third Day.

The story of Jonah in the Old Testament is marked with 3’s. Jonah spent three days and three nights in the belly of the whale. It took Jonah three days to go through the city of Nineveh. The city was small by today’s standards and would probably only take hours to walk through. But the ancient custom of recognizing an eminent personage, such as a prophet of Israel, demanded a day of introduction, a day of appearing before the king and a day of ritual leave-taking—three days.

When the Pharisees asked Jesus for a miraculous sign (though he had already done many miracles), He replied to them that they would only be shown the sign of Jonah. For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and now one greater than Jonah is here. Matthew 12:40-41

Surely this prophesies Jesus’ death and resurrection on the third day, but it also reaches ahead to a future time.

Jonah preached for three days in “wicked” Nineveh and both the king and the people repented. They put on sackcloth and ashes; they fasted and prayed. The Holy Spirit’s marking of this Old and New Testament link with references to three days sets up the possibility of Third Day fulfillment.

“Someone greater than Jonah,” who preached repentance in a violent Assyrian capitol and saw deep conversion, is here. He is Jesus, the Anointed One, now arising to the Third Day, the Day of Biblical prophecy when the fulfillment of all God’s promises will be realized. (Acts 3:19)

God’s plan in this Third Day of Jesus Christ is to loose the power of the anointing that caused a wicked and violent people like the Assyrians in Nineveh to repent. The Muslim world stands poised for an invasion of the Anointed One and His anointed people. This anointing can bring about reconciliation among the sons of Ishmael with their true God, not Allah, but Yahweh, the Great I AM.

Women play a pivotal role in executing God's great plan to restore Israel and its Islamic brothers. In His mercy, God is giving women this honor possibly because Eve, who lived at the heart of what later became Babylon, amidst the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, play a key role in bringing sin into God's perfect creation. Now in the days of restoration, God has given the enemy "into the hands of a woman." These are the words the judge and prophetess Deborah spoke to the Israeli army leader, Barak, as they went forth to defeat the armies of Sisera. "The trip you take will not be for your glory," Deborah told Barak, "for the Lord will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman." (Judges 4:9) That God chooses the praying women of the church (women's organizations such as Aglow International have prayed for the women of Islam for years) re-affirms the honor he gave to womanhood through Eve.

Read Judges 4 and 5 to draw the full meaning from the story, which God will parallel in the outcome of the battle against Allah today. Notice that Jael refuses to share her husband's allegiance to Jabin, the Canaanite king, and Sisera, his right arm. Jael has Sisera in her own tent, drinking her milk and covered by her blanket when she pierces his temple through with her tent spike. The women of Islam will refuse their culture's rigid allegiance to Allah and in their own homes will bring about his downfall.

Another woman laments the fate of Sisera in the story from Judges. It is Sisera's mother, who represents the mother of present-day Allah worship, ancient Babylon There worship of Allah's predecessor, Merodach-Bel, began. The book of Judges says, "The mother of Sisera looked out at a window and wailed through the lattice, 'Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why do the hoofbeats of his chariots tarry?'" Only those faithful to the spirit of Babylon will mourn the downfall of Allah.

Meanwhile the church, its prophets, like Deborah, and its warriors, like Barak, will wage the larger war. God's angels will fight alongside. "From the heavens the stars fought, from their courses they fought against Sisera." the Holy Spirit will come like a flood against the enemy. "When the enemy comes in, like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him." (Isaiah 59:19) And "He will come like a pent-up stream." In the Judges story the river Kishon represents the Holy Spirit. "A torrent Kishon swept the foe away, the onrushing torrent, the torrent Kishon. O my soul, march on with strength." (Judges 5:21 AMP)

July 5, 2005 I plan a great move in the Middle East. Islam will come down. The Arab world will be united with Israel as brothers. This is My doing as a witness to all the earth of who is God. Now I ask of you prayer, intercession for this great cause of the Lord your God. You have interceded well for Israel. Continue. But also add to it the vision and understanding of all that I want to do--the greatness of My plan for all the earth. It will impact the whole earth which is quaking in revulsion of the hatred between these brothers as well as all the sin upon the earth. Oh do for Me, My beloved bride, the job of groaning, weeping and laboring in intercession to birth the new man I will bring together in the Middle East, the man of God who will be a praise to Me and a restoration of all that was divided in the lives of Israel and Ishmael, Jacob and Esau, the patriarchal brothers.

June 27, 2005 Now I am sending you to Ishmael, that great people which sprang out of the loins of Abraham. This is a people waiting for Myself, a people waiting for deliverance and restoration as sons of Abraham and sons of God. How can you go to this violent and untamed people? Through prayer. The first call to prayer has been sounded. Now another deeper call comes. Oh, My people, pray for the sons of Ishmael locked in the unholy embrace of Islam for I would set My people free. Hear Me: pray. Come before Me on behalf of My violent and untamed children--yes, your very enemies--that I might make them friends of Israel and of you, the church, My church, My bride. I, even I, set them up as your enemies to put you in the position to pray most effectively. So I ask you now to love the ones who hate you, do good to those who would harm you and by that good to totally disarm them. I will be with you. I am a great God who can turn the heart of Ishmael to the heart of Israel and bring great blessing--worldwide, world-impacting blessing--if My people called by My name will pray.

June 26, 2005 Come! Come with a heart to worship. Come! Come with a heart to praise your God on high. Come. Now is the time to worship Him that the rain might fall from heaven, that the skies would be filled with rainbows, that God Himself might come down. Call all creation to worship. Let God be God! Let the Lord of Hosts be released with His armies! Let the witnesses be shown forth. Let it begin, all that God has caused to come into being in this last hour and the fulfillment of all His promises. Let it be like the crescendo of a great symphony, all the themes drawn together and replayed with drama, verve and majesty. Let it be!

I liked this. I could have lived without the authors prophesy but the rest of it was interesting. I've heard the Hagar story before. If Abraham had trusted the lord in providing an offspring we might not have had this problem today.

Also if Israel had of followed Gods command of TOTAL DESTRUCTION of the peoples in Israel upon their return from Egypt we might not have the problems we have today.

Sort of unusual that God commanded them to destroy them man woman and child as well as their animals. But the bleeding hearts couldn't bring themselves to obey God.

I should clarify that following God's commands would have been extremely difficult and I can see why God's command of killing every living creature and destroying all bounty wasn't carried out.

Two other points that I agree with. Islam DOES seem to follow Theology that was discarded from Christianity and the Jewish religion. For instance "The daVinci Code" theology is perfectly compatible with Islam (but not with Christianity).

Also the idea that Islam might have been inspired by Satan is not without some agreement from Mohammed himself. Initially he thought the 'Angel of Light' he encountered was Satan.

It was only later that his wife convinced him otherwise.

I happen to believe his initial assessment.

This lady may be speaking for the Lord. may the Lord richly bless you and yours.

Meditate on her message later.

"In prophetic words given in April and November, 2003 . . . . . . the Lord said:"

----- Why doesn't the writer identify the author of these prophecies? The authors of old testament prophecies always identified themselves. And surely she is not attempting to place these modern day prophets on the same level as those of the Scriptures or is she?

Prophecies no longer server a purpose, and God no longer speaks to man in this way. We have all we need in the Word of God.

"If I knew God I'd be Him."

Deuteronomy 30:19...I call heaven and earth to record this day against you,
that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore
choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live....
