JUST AROUND THE CORNER

"Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets . " {Amos 3:7)

I don't know how to explain it...that churning, or turning, inside of me, but it usually precedes the times that God speaks to me to tell me something special. I had been feeling this gnawing sensation for several hours that Saturday morning, so much so that I felt I had to put off other tasks and get right to the business of praying for the needs of the people who had written me to pray for their personal needs.

This was one of those rare Saturdays I had awakened in my own home. Ever since I was just a young man I have traveled thousands of miles to the far corners of the earth every year preaching the gospel. I have awakened in India, South America, England, Israel . On the Saturdays I am home, it seems as if there are a million things that must be done.

Theresa and I had been sitting at the breakfast table sharing what God was doing through the World Evangelism ministry. All the time the pressure inside me was building. When Theresa left to do some sewing, I felt that I just HAD to pray.

I put before me all the prayer requests and I began to read them and pray over each one individually. (Some people find it hard to believe that I always pray over each request personally, but it is true. I have promised the people that this is what I will do and I do it faithfully. I personally lay hands on each and every need and intercede before the throne of God for that need.)

This day, however, was different, special. As I began to pray, my prayers turned into intense intercession. I began to FEEL the individual needs as if I were that person I was praying for, as if I had somehow entered into them and that their needs had somehow entered into me. I felt every need with intensity.

AND THEN GOD SPOKE!

He said, "I have allowed you to feel these needs for a reason. These needs that these people have...the rebellious children, the marriage problems, the financial problems...these problems are nothing compared to what is coming upon the world just around the corner."

A FIXED POINT

God said to me, "Morris... tell my people that THEY MUST HAVE A FIXED POINT FOR THEIR FAITH!"

He said, "Everything that CAN be shaken, WILL be shaken. If the people don't have something that is impregnable, that cannot be penetrated...THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO STAND. Tell them THEY MUST HAVE A FIXED POINT FOR THEIR FAITH."

One of the things that I am most glad about in all the world is that God does not change. People change.

Situations change. Circumstances change. Church doctrines change. But God never changes.

Just as "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and for ever" (Hebrews 13:8), so is Jehovah God unchangeable. He says, "For I am the LORD, I change not..." (Malachi 3:6), James 1:17 says of God "with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."

So you see, God does not change. His characteristics are the same.

One of the great characteristics of God in His dealings and His personal communications with mankind is this...God does speak to people.

Some people find that hard to believe but nevertheless it is true. God spoke to Adam, He spoke to Elijah, He spoke to Abraham, He spoke to Moses, and He speaks to people today. He speaks to a preacher named Morris Cerullo .

God has been speaking to me since I was 14 years old when I was being raised in a Jewish orthodox orphanage in New Jersey.

I knew about God, about Jehovah God. I had sat for seven years under some of the leading rabbis. When I was 13 years old, I was bar mitzvahed and carried the Holy Torah on my shoulder. I marched in the synagogue and celebrated the feast days of the Jews. Every morning I was in the synagogue about 6 o'clock laying my tephillin , saying my baruchas and my haphtarahs and davening .

But when I was 14 years old, God came to me inside that Jewish orphanage and by His Holy Spirit revealed Jesus Christ as the Messiah to my life.

The Bible says that "many are called, but few are chosen. (Matthew 22:14) I have to say that I was chosen. I never did seek God. Never. He came to me. Shortly after I left the orphanage, when I was 15, I received a glorious experience of the Holy Spirit. I began to feel the tug of the Holy Spirit on my life. I began to feel the call of God upon my life to preach.

I never did want to be a preacher. I had other ideas entirely. It was my ambition to become a lawyer and then the governor of my state. That's what I wanted. That was my ambition, but God had other ideas.

One day He took my life by the Holy Spirit and lifted me from this earth right into heaven. He revealed to me the Presence of Jehovah God...and in that rapturous experience, I surrendered my life to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ.

SUPERNATURAL EXPERIENCES

So it was in a supernatural experience that God first revealed Jesus to my heart, a supernatural experience when I surrendered my earthly ambitions to Him in order to preach the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ... and every major change or addition or enlargement in this great World Evangelism ministry has come as a result of direct, divine communication from God.

It was a divine communication from God that brought me back to minister in North America at a time when, in the natural, it looked like the last thing in the world I ought to do. We were having great meetings overseas. Tens of thousands attended each meeting. Thousands were healed. Thousands were saved out of darkness into the light of Jesus Christ.

In America, it looked like people were gospel-hardened. Everyone said, "Oh, you can't have revival there. It's preached over, burnt over."

The "natural" said "Stay on the foreign field."

GOD said, "Son, I want you to return to North America. I am going to pour out a New Anointing of My divine healing power on North America."

At a time when in the natural it was said of the United States, "That is really a great country, look at the leadership, look at the affluency "...at that time, GOD said to me, "Son, the devil has assigned sinister, evil forces to tear down the structure of our society."

You see what has happened in the last several years...the political tragedy which has scarred our nation and the daily revelations in our newspapers about CIA involvement with the Mafia and corruption in high places.

You can trust God. When He says something it will come to pass. When He instructs you, there is a reason.

He gave me the keys for the New Anointing, and look at the results in people's lives from the messages and from the books: tens of thousands of lives literally revolutionized. We have seen more answers to prayer in the past four years than at any other time in my ministry as people have put into action the principles of the New Anointing. Ministries have been revolutionized. God spoke, God gave the key, and it worked.

NOW GOD HAS SPOKEN AGAIN WITH A MESSAGE FOR AMERICA!

"SON, TELL MY PEOPLE THEY MUST HAVE A FIXED POINT FOR THEIR FAITH."

He has revealed to me that just around the corner, Satan is positioning and poising himself for the greatest onslaught against the Church of Jesus Christ that he has ever made. Everything that can be shaken by the forces of hell will be shaken on this earth.

I want you to be prepared for what is going to happen.

I am going to share three things with you!

1. The shaking of ALL THINGS that is coming upon the world before the coming of the Lord,
