Daniel 2: 31 “Your Majesty looked, and there before you stood a large statue—an enormous, dazzling statue,awesome in appearance. 32 The head of the statue was made of pure gold (Babylon), its chest and arms of silver(Media/Persia), its belly and thighs of bronze (Greece), 33 its legs of iron (Rome), its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay. (Revived Rome- The kingdom of anti-christ)


Feet of iron and clay. It’s strength is deceptive; it’s unity is an illusion. Iron and clay can never hold together. Yet this kingdom, for a time, will unify the nations, holding a decisive and destructive power over all who belong to this world….Why? Precisely because they love the things of this world and seek after the treasure of it…Revelation 13:16 It (the false prophet) also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark,which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. 


To refuse this mark is to be heavily persecuted, and at the very least, deprived of even our most basic needs. If we do not learn to make Jesus Christ our source, and seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness …if we do not begin to store up for ourselves things of Heaven instead of this earth…and set our desires on the same…we too will be ensnared by the power of the prince of this world.

Read Matthew 25:1-13;Genesis 19:12-26

We must set our affections on Christ NOW, not considering anything of this world but awaiting expectantly for His return. 


Because…

34 While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands.It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. 35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were all broken to pieces and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer. The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. (Revelation 19:11-21)


Matthew 6:19-21, 31-33; Colossians 3:2-5

The Keys

 The keys 🗝🔑 Isaiah 42 6  “I am the Lord; I have called you in righteousness; I will take you by the hand and keep you; I will give you as a covenant for the people, a light for the nations, 7  to open the eyes that are blind, to bring out the prisoners from the dungeon, from the prison those who sit in darkness The stairs were dark...except for the Light of the Lord, as He stood at the top. We, the saints of God were with Him.  And I could hear: It was the sound of deep groans, cries, screams of despair and hopelessness, coming from below. And I heard the Lord say one Word: “Keys” As I watched, the saints of God who were with Him, each took the keys of the Kingdom given to them by Jesus Christ and began to descend the stairs into the darkness.  Each saint as they went, was shrouded almost to invisibility, by the Blood of Jesus and the Light of His countenance, which emanated from them. Some of them went three or four levels down...to the deepest, darkest plac...

The Crucifixion

  Part III   The Fire…The Church Crucified   {At 10min 24sec} The tone…the chords of Kim’s keyboard seemed to change: I saw Fire…I felt heat…And I saw the Church…with her back against the wall… and her heart against the Cross… she began to cry out to God:  Not cries as we have done before, but these were cries of absolute desperation: An awakening…to realize that it is either Jesus Christ or nothing at all.  I heard grandparents praying for children…tears flowed like a river, from years and years of prayer…Upon the altar, years and years of prayers came up as incense before the Lord, spanning decades.  Men..fathers...grandfathers...husbands crying out to God...and the smoke of the incense was filling the throne room: Around the Cross were scores of people: Men especially, seemed to come from everywhere…some running, some bent almost double with weeping…some were crouched over as if covering their families: Whole families were embracing the Cross…in the mids...

Part IV The Church Resurrected

  Part IV The Rain…The Church Resurrected   {At 12min 15sec}  I saw the heavens begin opening…the rains began to fall: And it was as if I also saw tombs opening up: We arose up from the ground…We came up, as if, from out of a tomb. {At 12min 26sec} I watched as whole families were taken up and like lightning, disappeared into the Body of Christ...nameless and faceless...each part began to immediately function as one... taking a unique place...I saw as if a natural body, organs, muscles, bone...we all had a place, and like lightning, with extreme order and precision (like an Army) we all took it…through the Fire, we had learned how to kneel. I did not see the Lord - only his feet: But at his appearance the entire Remnant Army, as one man, fell on their faces and began to worship the Lord - with a sound of unity that made the ground beneath them shake. Kim Clement: “PRAY!” We stood up in Christ… {At 13min 18sec} The church stood on her feet - a mighty army. She was a warrio...
