Prophetic Word: DRAW NEAR TO ME! (08/09/2022)

Prophetic Word: Bettie & Sharron,

Draw near to Me While you can!

The secret to the days ahead in which you live, is going to be based upon your relationship to me.  You need to draw closer to me in the days ahead then you ever have in your walk since you’ve become a born-again believer.  There has never been a time like you’re getting ready to face.  If you could see what I see coming down the road, and I am revealing to people all over the earth through dreams and visions, visitations, through people, places, and things, through the multi-media, divine encounters that are taking place everywhere, through my people and through my word.  I am manifesting – trying to get the attention of my people.  I am hoping that the shaking of this planet, the shaking of the heavens above, the earth beneath and all the forces of nature are screaming to people that are in the fields, the people that are in the workplaces, the two sleeping in the bed at night – one is going to be taken and one is going to be left.  The ten virgins heard the trumpet call but only five had prepared with oil in their lamps and five thought they did but never took the time to find out.  

Now is the time, the most precious time that you can spend is with me, alone time with me, whatever that involves, whether its driving to work in your car or whether it's when your kids are at school or just taking a break and walking around your building, you need to walk with me and talk with me.  You need to get into my word.  You need to take the word of God and put it into your hearts so that you will have the sword of the Spirit.  You cannot have the sword of the Spirit or the armor of God without the word.  The way you get the armor of God is to spend time with me in prayer, in my Word.  

David had the armor of God on him because he spent time with me as a shepherd boy in the fields.  He was covered with the armor before Ephesians ever spoke about the armor.  David was the first one that ever was walking in my literal armor.  So go read about David and find out what he did.  He was a shepherd boy that was trained with a lion and a bear and with stones and a sling shot.  I used those things that he gave me.  Give me what you have, and I will use it – Just give me what you have, and I WILL USE IT! 

So you just need to draw close to me and I will draw close to you and by you drawing close to me and refreshing your love for me and your relationship with me, people are going to see it and are going to want it.  I am going to show people in the days ahead who are mine and who have a love relationship with me, and an intimacy and know me, people who don’t have it are going to become envious and almost jealous over you, like I’m trying to do with the church with my own people Israel.

TEN VIRGINS 

[Mat 25:1-9, 11-13 KJV] 1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish. 3 They that [were] foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, [Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. ... 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

DAVID AND GOLIATH

[1Sa 17:4-10, 15, 23, 26, 28, 31-37, 39-40, 42-51 KJV] 4 And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height [was] six cubits and a span. 5 And [he had] an helmet of brass upon his head, and he [was] armed with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat [was] five thousand shekels of brass. 6 And [he had] greaves of brass upon his legs, and a target of brass between his shoulders. 7 And the staff of his spear [was] like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head [weighed] six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield went before him. 8 And he stood and cried unto the armies of Israel, and said unto them, Why are ye come out to set [your] battle in array? [am] not I a Philistine, and ye servants to Saul? choose you a man for you, and let him come down to me. 9 If he be able to fight with me, and to kill me, then will we be your servants: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then shall ye be our servants, and serve us. 10 And the Philistine said, I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together. ... 15 But David went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem. ... 23 And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, out of the armies of the Philistines, and spake according to the same words: and David heard [them]. ... 26 And David spake to the men that stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man that killeth this Philistine, and taketh away the reproach from Israel? for who [is] this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God? ... 28 And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou mightest see the battle. ... 31 And when the words were heard which David spake, they rehearsed [them] before Saul: and he sent for him. 32 And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine. 33 And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou [art but] a youth, and he a man of war from his youth. 34 And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock: 35 And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered [it] out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught [him] by his beard, and smote him, and slew him. 36 Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he hath defied the armies of the living God. 37 David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the LORD be with thee. ... 39 And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to go; for he had not proved [it]. And David said unto Saul, I cannot go with these; for I have not proved [them]. And David put them off him. 40 And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling [was] in his hand: and he drew near to the Philistine. ... 42 And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he disdained him: for he was [but] a youth, and ruddy, and of a fair countenance. 43 And the Philistine said unto David, [Am] I a dog, that thou comest to me with staves? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. 44 And the Philistine said to David, Come to me, and I will give thy flesh unto the fowls of the air, and to the beasts of the field. 45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied. 46 This day will the LORD deliver thee into mine hand; and I will smite thee, and take thine head from thee; and I will give the carcases of the host of the Philistines this day unto the fowls of the air, and to the wild beasts of the earth; that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 47 And all this assembly shall know that the LORD saveth not with sword and spear: for the battle [is] the LORD'S, and he will give you into our hands. 48 And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and came and drew nigh to meet David, that David hasted, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine. 49 And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang [it], and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. 50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but [there was] no sword in the hand of David. 51 Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.
