Translation from Spanish
My beloved, says the Lord, why are your knees trembling? Why do your legs feel so weak? This is not a time to be afraid, but to worship Me with all your heart, to believe Me, to read what is written, and to glorify My holy name as you see these things being fulfilled before your eyes and become witnesses to the fulfillment of the written Word in these times.
You have been chosen to witness the fulfillment of many things that are written for these days, says God, and that is not a punishment, but rather a privilege.
Noelia: I see all of us, those who are born again and living in these end times, with crowns on our heads, walking with sure steps, steady and confident in our God. And God tells me that we are special people, because not just anyone was created to go through these dark and dangerous days of the end times. We are not ordinary souls, but souls who have everything it takes to live through what we are experiencing.
You were made for such a time as this, says the Lord, because I gave you what you need to survive and be victorious as you see what is written come to pass right before your eyes. I am the One who formed you for these days, for this moment. I am the One who mapped out and designed your path so that you would walk in everything I planned for your life.
[Esther 4:14] For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father’s house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?
In these end times, it is no coincidence that you are here, living at this moment. It was not by chance that you were born in these last days. I planned it, says the Lord. I am the One who formed you in your mother’s womb. I am the One who breathed into your nostrils to give you the breath of life and planted you at precisely this point in time so you would fulfill specific purposes I designed exclusively for your soul.
Your life in this time is not a mistake, says the Lord. It was not the devil who brought you into the world or gave you life to walk through these days. I am who I am, and I will be who I will be, and I know what I am doing with every soul I have created for My own glory.
I want My people to rise and walk confidently, says God. I want My people to hold their heads high and walk with honor, like people who know they have already overcome through the blood of the Lamb, not like defeated people. I want My people to gain confidence in themselves and stop behaving like beaten puppies afraid to take even a single step.
I want My people to stop asking Me why they have to live in this particular time and start thanking Me for their lives, says God. I want My own to stop complaining about how difficult their lives are and say to Me, “Thank You, Lord. I know You brought me here at exactly this moment for a reason.” I want My own to stop running from the destiny I have designed for them and begin to accept that what I have planned for their lives is perfect.
Understand that My will is good, perfect, and pleasing, says the Lord. I do not want evil for anyone, and everything serves a purpose for the good of those who love Me.
Little ones, says the Lord, you need to trust Me even though you don’t understand everything. You do not need to know everything in order to believe Me and know by faith that I am with you. But many of you think I have abandoned you simply because the circumstances you are experiencing are unfavorable. Many of you think I no longer look at you, that I no longer see you, and that I no longer hear you, just because you are suffering.
Remember that Jesus suffered, yet He still blessed Me, says the Lord. Jesus wept, yet He still glorified Me. Jesus understood that the cup of death could not pass from Him, that He could not escape that suffering, that temporary pain, but He still believed Me.
Sometimes you are not like Jesus, who asked Me to let that cup pass from Him if possible, received no for an answer, yet continued to love Me, believe Me, and trust Me, says the Lord. You have not yet learned what is written about this, and when you are told no, you are the ones who turn your backs on Me; you are the ones who run away; you are the ones who begin to doubt My love.
Jesus did not doubt that I loved Him, says the Lord, even as He was being crucified, even when I delivered Him into the hands of His own people. Jesus trusted Me to the point of shedding His blood and gave His life out of love for Me, in obedience. But when you go through the slightest problem or affliction, doubt immediately enters your hearts, and you begin to question Me and believe that I am evil, that I have abandoned you, that I have left you, and that I no longer care about you.
You need to learn to trust Me, whatever happens, whatever comes, and never take your eyes off Me, says God. You need to know that I am good, even when I have to tell you no, because a Father knows better than His own child what is good and what is bad for them.
My beloved, I am taking care of you, says God. Do not stop, do not slow down, do not stop loving Me, and do not stop seeking Me. Be like Job, who accepted both the good and the bad from Me and glorified My holy name even without understanding why these things were happening to him.
Love Me regardless of the circumstances you are experiencing, says the Lord, because many of you love Me when everything is going well, but immediately stop loving Me when things become difficult.
Tribulation is coming upon the whole world: anguish upon the good and anguish upon the wicked, says the Lord. What would you do if the earthquakes you see occurring in some countries happened to you? How would you respond if the tsunami you are watching on TV came to your own shores and took away what you love most right now? How would you respond if what happened to My servant Job happened to you and you were left with almost nothing in a single day?
It is not easy, says the Lord, but it is possible to keep trusting Me, believing Me, loving Me, and being faithful to Me. Search your hearts to see if you are truly prepared to go through these kinds of trials, because more earthquakes are coming, more tsunamis along the coasts, more hurricanes and tornadoes that destroy the land, more wars and rumors of wars, plagues that will kill many people, famine, economic problems, and financial crises.
All of this is what is written, and some of you think it will not happen to you, that this loaded truck will not pull up outside your door. But I will test the righteous, says the Lord. The unrighteous do not need to be tested, but I will refine My own so their faith will grow and their vessels will be full of faith when the Desire of all nations comes.
Trials are coming upon the whole world, including My own, says God. Some of you will lose your homes. Others will see their churches literally fall apart—the walls will be destroyed. Others will have to say goodbye to loved ones. Others will face illness.
Life is not easy, says God, but it is not about whether life is easy or difficult. It is about how much faith the Lord will find on earth when He comes, and you are the cups I want to see full of faith when Jesus Christ comes for His own.
[Luke 18:8] When the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
My beloved, prepare yourselves, says the Lord. And when you go through difficult things, give no room to the thoughts the enemy puts in your minds as he tries to make you believe that I have abandoned you, that I have left you, that I no longer listen to you, and that I don’t care about you. Be like Jesus, who, even after I told Him, “It is not possible for this cup to pass from You,” still loved Me and consecrated Himself to Me unto death.
My beloved, says the Lord, many of you will drink from different cups, but this is not meant to destroy you. It is not because I have abandoned you; it is not to punish you, but so that you can draw closer to Me, so that your faith can grow, and so that you will no longer be mediocre Christians who say they love Me but don’t show it through their actions.
Many of you will have to drink from different cups, none of them easy to drink, says the Lord, but this is to refine you and prepare you so you can be worthy to enter through the gates and dwell with Me in the eternal life, because only those who have been found worthy to go through sufferings like those Jesus endured have been chosen to be glorified and sit with Him on His throne.
You need to understand that everyone who follows the Lord Jesus Christ must be like Him, says the Lord. You must sacrifice your lives as He sacrificed His. You must carry your cross as He carried His and go through situations similar to those He went through, because those who do not suffer are not worthy of Him. The character of those who do not weep is not shaped in the likeness of the Lord who wept.
Allow yourselves to be shaped, says God. Allow yourselves to be refined. Do not resist pain, but understand it as an opportunity to grow in Me, an opportunity to become like your Lord.
My beloved, there is still more to come, says God. Tribulation is coming to the world: weeping, anguish, pain, loss, global conflicts, surging seas, social unrest, people losing their minds, psychiatric hospitals beginning to fill with people who are going insane, and hospitals unable to cope with the injured from the catastrophes coming upon the earth.
You need to expect these things to continue happening and getting worse, says God, because it is written that way and because that is how it must be for this earth and this heaven to pass away and for a new earth and a new heaven to come.
What you see now will perish so that something new can be born, says God. But first comes moral decay, first the ruin of humanity, first the corruption of the earth, which staggers like a drunkard and reflects humanity’s wickedness and sin, sin that grows and grows in these last days.
First comes the greatest manifestation of wickedness in the world, which will give birth to its king, to its lord, to this man who represents darkness and comes with powers from below, not from above. You will see him and remember everything that is written about him, but many will not be prepared to watch as the words written about the Antichrist are fulfilled in broad daylight.
You need to prepare yourselves and understand that My people will go through the final trial of the last days, says the Lord, seeing how this man does as he pleases during the time he is allowed, a time appointed even before his appearance. You need to accept that the path will not be easy, but also believe that I will be with you until the end of the age, because I said so.
Little ones, you must believe Me and not turn away from Me, says God, because the things coming upon the whole world will make you suffer either way. But suffering with hope is not the same as suffering without it.
If you turn away from Me, says God, the devil will go after your minds to drive you insane as well, because it will be difficult to stand firm without Me. It will be almost impossible to get back up if I am not there.
You must train your minds to think in a certain way whatever happens, whatever comes, says God. You must imagine situations you could face in this world and decide in your hearts how you will respond to them. You must decide to confess My name until the end, even if you were threatened with death for loving Me.
My beloved, many of you live in a reality of your own invention. Many have created a false gospel for themselves and are not as grounded in reality as they should be. You imagine things that are inconsistent with what is written. You think nothing will happen to you that will cause pain, affliction, or suffering.
But if the Son of God Himself had to be made perfect through His obedience even though He walked in the world without blemish and without sin, without making mistakes and without going astray, how much more must those who make mistakes be perfected through obedience? How much more those who sin? How much more those who do not love Me as they say they do and do not believe Me as they say they do? How much more those who, even while preaching My Word, do not trust the One who wrote it?
[Hebrews 5:8-9] Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him.
You must change your way of thinking, says the Lord. You must prepare in earnest and truly consecrate yourselves to Me. You must consider the possibility of going through situations similar to those My servant Job went through.
Your lives can change from one moment to the next, and many of you are like the pillar of salt that Lot’s wife became: hard, petrified, frozen in your present situation, inflexible, not considering the possibility that your lives could change in an instant.
Some of you believe that your present stability will last forever, and you cannot imagine that the things you see now might not remain as they are. You have not considered that, just as Job’s life—though he was an upright and righteous man—changed completely in a single day, your lives could also change to test your love and faithfulness toward Me.
Consider this, and in your hearts let go of everything you are clinging to, believing it belongs to you, says the Lord. Stop desiring the things you want but that are not what I want you to desire.
I love you, says God, but I have to prepare a people who can endure change, loss, trials, affliction, and pain—a people who today only want to live as though they had already finished the race.
There are many things you will not experience in this life, but only in eternal life, says God. Just as an athlete must leap over hurdles, endure thirst, fatigue, and muscle pain, and persevere until reaching the finish line, you too must travel that road, clear each of those hurdles, feel that pain in your own flesh, and remain mentally steadfast until you reach the end, says the Lord.
This is a call to face the reality of what is written and prepare to go through these shakings that must take place in the end times.
Consecrate yourselves, says the Lord. Consecrate yourselves. Study what the word “consecration” means in general and in the Bible. Study what it means to be set apart for Me, to truly surrender yourselves to Me and become Mine, like a soldier who knows that once he enlists in the army, he cannot become entangled in the affairs of this life.
[2 Timothy 2:4] No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
Mature, says the Lord. Grow and be courageous as men and women of God, no longer acting like spoiled children who only come to Me to ask for things, well-being, and prosperity.
I ask this of you in part so that when these tragedies occur in your cities, when what is written comes knocking at your doors, you will already have made your decision and be ready to endure the test of faith, overcoming and not turning back.
Prepare yourselves and ask yourselves these questions, which are difficult but worth asking, says the Lord:
What would I do if I faced what that brother faced—the loss of loved ones when that earthquake struck Venezuela? What would I do if the flood I am watching on the news came and I lost the fruit of so many years of work? What would I do if the church I attend were destroyed by a hurricane, an earthquake, or whatever else might strike it? What would I do if I were left alone after losing my spouse?
Where would my faith be? How would I remain devoted to the Lord? What would I do with the commitment I made to Jesus when I entered into covenant with Him? What would I think of God? Would I judge Him? Would I tell Him He is unjust? Would I abandon Him? Or would I say to Him, “Lord, I don’t understand why all of this is happening to me, but I still trust You”? Would I bless Him or curse Him? Would I turn away, or would I keep moving forward no matter what comes into my life?
Noelia: The Lord weighs your heart today and wants you to search it so that when you see what is written in the Word come to pass in your own life, you will be ready to face it and say to Him, “Lord, I will stay by Your side. I still love You,” even if you were to lose everything and everyone.
There are many Bible passages I could mention, passages that speak about trials, afflictions, and the catastrophes coming upon the world. I recommend studying and meditating on them from time to time, when you feel that you are becoming superficial, when you see that the world is drawing you in too much, and when you realize that you are forgetting what it truly means to follow Jesus and the price we are called to pay to honor the blood that was shed for us.
He has already gone through it, and now it’s our turn to bleed—in our souls and perhaps physically as well—through the afflictions we must endure because we were found worthy to be like our Lord Jesus Christ. Sometimes we forget this part of the Gospel, which Jesus lived out and left as an example for us.
Today the Lord warns you once again that difficult things are coming upon the world, different things in each region of the earth, and none of us should think we will be spared them, because the Lord’s main purpose is for our faith, once tested, to be like pure gold and stronger than before.
God tells me you must not forget that Jesus overcame first. He has already done it for you. You only need to believe Him, follow Him, and hold to the decision you made until the end. He will take care of whatever you lack, lift you up when you fall, and strengthen you when you feel weak. Do not doubt it.
All He expects is that your decision be continually renewed, that it remain a permanent yes, because when your resolve falters, the enemy takes advantage of your doubts and confusion. Stand firm on the rock, and whatever comes, you will be able to withstand the turmoil because He will be with you.
God loves you and wants you by His side, but you need to give Him your whole heart at all times, not just part of it and not only when you feel good, when it’s easy to say, “Lord, I want You, I love You, I adore You. I will always be with You, and I will follow You.” But when the earth shakes beneath your feet, that’s when your faith must show itself through your determination to remain on this path that the Lord never said would be easy.
Don’t forget that the blood has already been shed. The sacrifice has already been made, and we lack nothing. If you lack wisdom, ask the Lord for it. If the enemy has stolen your faith, take it back and command him to retreat. Rise in the name of Jesus.
Even if you are in a hospital bed, the Lord is with you if you decide to follow Him. Our faith must not depend on an illness, an earthquake, a loss, or a death. The flesh and the soul can suffer, because we are made from the dust of the earth and have emotions, but our faith must not wane because of that. That’s the heart of today’s message.
When your husband leaves your home, when your enemies betray you, when your children want nothing to do with God, none of that should cause your faith to wane or disappear. When your coworkers mock you, when your boss abuses his authority, God is still watching you. God still loves you. Jesus is still mindful of you, and your name remains written in the book of life as long as you don’t choose to abandon Him.
Press on! Press on, says God, despite the tears, despite the sleepless nights, despite the grief of losing those you love. Lift up your eyes and look up as the world falls into moral decay.
Noelia: Faith is what makes the difference, and that’s why the Lord has spoken through me today. God wants to use you and glorify Himself through your hands, but you need to believe, walk by faith, and let the Spirit lead you.
My soul praises and blesses You, Lord. Thank You, Lord, for imparting faith right now to those who are listening. Thank You, Lord, for helping us refocus today on what matters and for reminding us today that answering Your call and walking in Your purpose doesn’t depend on the suffering we are going through or the circumstances we are experiencing; rather, all those difficult situations are opportunities to love and serve You more, to show who You are, and to speak about You.
Here we are, Lord, once again surrendering and consecrating ourselves to You and saying, “I have so many problems and am suffering in various ways, Lord, but I am still here, willing to serve You in whatever way You want, taking my eyes off earthly things and fixing them on heavenly things. What I see all around me is not what I would like to see, Lord. My soul is in anguish, but my faith is intact. Father, tell me what to do to serve You, please You, and glorify You, because today I remember once again that we walk by faith, not by sight.”
Greetings and hugs from Mendoza, Argentina. All the glory belongs to God.
[Philippians 1:29] For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake.
[2 Timothy 2:12] If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us.
[Revelation 3:21] To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
[John 16:33] These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
