GOD'S UNFOLDING PURPOSE

[Ed. Note: This commentary is not to be confused with the teaching by the same name published in the first volume of Prepare Ye the Way almost 3 years earlier. There is no relationship between the two articles.]

 

The following two prophecies were received at a time when the Lord was unfolding further phases of His purposes, both spiritually and on the world scene. The first one is a call for the Lord's people to awaken to His spiritual workings before having to be jarred by world events. Following this prophecy is an article which more fully explains the signifi­cance of that which the Lord is now doing. Although it was mimeographed as a separate pamphlet and sent to those on the mailing list, it is included here for the benefit of those who have not read it before.

 

The final prophecy was received on June 7, 1967, while the Jews and Arabs were still fighting, with no assur­ance that it was going to cease. Yet the Lord spoke that there would be a seeming settlement. Later a cease fire was declared and the fighting stopped. The Lord is warning by this flare-up that the time is short. The Middle East will yet see conditions of total war with all nations being drawn into the battle in one way or another. The gathering of all na­tions to Jerusalem to battle is already being fulfilled in one respect by the debate in the United Nations. No doubt the "word" battle will continue for some time with no real solu­tion of the problems involved. Russia will continue her tac­tics of intrigue and infiltration for she has high stakes in that area. The United States will continue to vacillate until for­ced to take a stand when Russian military moves in the Middle East take on dangerous proportions.

 

One wonders what it is going to take to wake the peo­ple of this nation up. We can be thankful that the Lord is giving sufficient warning that those who are "dull of hearing" maybe stirred to an awareness of the times in which we live. To those of us who are in tune with His Spirit and the "still small voice" it is a time as never before to get ready for the mighty revival that is to shake the world BEFORE the final shaking by titanic world events and total conflict.
