Prepare Your Heart

“For yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.” Hebrews 12:26 (KJV)

There are moments in biblical history when God announces a shaking before it comes. He warned Noah before the flood. He warned Egypt before judgment. He warned Jerusalem before destruction. And He always warns before He closes the door.

We are living in a generation marked by instability. Nations tremble under economic strain. Wars multiply. Technology reshapes power structures. Moral boundaries collapse. The world senses something approaching, yet few prepare spiritually.

Scripture teaches that divine shaking has purpose.

“That those things which cannot be shaken may remain.” Hebrews 12:27 (KJV)

Shaking reveals foundations.

I. As in the Days of Noah

Jesus gave a prophetic comparison that cannot be ignored.

“But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” Matthew 24:37 (KJV)

What defined Noah’s generation? Normalcy in the face of warning.

“For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage… and knew not until the flood came.” Matthew 24:38–39 (KJV)

They continued daily life, dismissing prophetic warning. The ark stood as visible mercy. Yet the door eventually closed.

“And the Lord shut him in.” Genesis 7:16 (KJV)

God’s patience is real. So is its limit.

II. Hardened Hearts and Borrowed Time

The danger of repeated rejection is hardness.

“Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.” Hebrews 3:15 (KJV)

Many mistake extended grace for permanent safety. Yet Scripture calls it longsuffering mercy.

“Despisest thou the riches of his goodness… not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?” Romans 2:4 (KJV)

Borrowed time is not guaranteed time.

The broad path remains crowded.

“Broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat.” Matthew 7:13 (KJV)

Judgment is not emotional rage. It is righteous fulfillment of divine holiness.

III. Nations Brought to Their Knees

Throughout Scripture, when nations exalted themselves against God, collapse followed.

“Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.” Proverbs 14:34 (KJV)

We are witnessing global systems strained by corruption, violence, moral confusion, and economic instability. Scripture foretells distress among nations.

“And upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity.” Luke 21:25 (KJV)

The shaking of nations often awakens individuals.

“When thy judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness.” Isaiah 26:9 (KJV)

IV. Shelter Under His Wings

For the faithful, the message is not terror but trust.

“He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust.” Psalm 91:4 (KJV)

Protection does not always mean absence of difficulty. It means presence in it.

“When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee.” Isaiah 43:2 (KJV)

The anchor is not government. Not wealth. Not preparedness strategies alone.

“That Rock was Christ.” 1 Corinthians 10:4 (KJV)

Victory is not in human strength.

“Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.” Zechariah 4:6 (KJV)

V. Stay Strong and Courageous

The call echoes what God spoke to Joshua:

“Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid… for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” Joshua 1:9 (KJV)

Even in gross darkness, believers are sustained by the Spirit.

“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” 2 Corinthians 5:7 (KJV)

Daily repentance, prayer, thanksgiving, and spiritual vigilance are not religious rituals. They are lifelines.

A Call to Repentance

The warning is clear. The door remains open now. Prepare your heart.

“Prepare to meet thy God.” Amos 4:12 (KJV)

Do not delay. Do not dismiss. Do not grow lukewarm.

“Because thou art lukewarm… I will spue thee out of my mouth.” Revelation 3:16 (KJV)

Turn fully to Christ. Anchor yourself in Him before the shaking intensifies.

The Gospel Invitation

All have sinned.
 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”
Romans 3:23 (KJV)

Sin brings death.
 “For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Romans 6:23 (KJV)

Jesus paid the price.
 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Romans 5:8 (KJV)

Confess and believe.
 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
Romans 10:9 (KJV)

Repent. Believe. Receive salvation while mercy stands open.

Conclusion

A shaking is coming. Foundations will be tested. Nations will tremble. Hearts will fail those unprepared.

But for those anchored in Christ, there is shelter under His wings and strength in His Spirit.

Stay strong and courageous. The Rock remains unshaken.

The Rise of the Remnant: God’s Hidden Army for the Final Hour

I. The Hidden Ones: A Remnant Refined by Fire Throughout every generation, God has preserved a remnant, those who have not bowed to the idols of their time, who walk in righteousness amid corruption, and who carry His presence with purity and power. Elijah lamented that he stood alone for God, but the Lord revealed, “I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal” (1 Kings 19:18, KJV). Today, God’s hidden ones are emerging from seasons of obscurity and crushing. They are the forerunners, raised in secret places where their faith has been tested, refined, and purified. These men and women have endured the fires of betrayal, rejection, and spiritual warfare, yet like gold tried in the furnace, they now reflect the image of the Refiner (Malachi 3:2–3). They were trained in isolation, hidden from public view, so that when they emerge, it will not be by human promotion but by divine appointment. Their confidence is not in their strength but in the...

Forged Through The Fire

I. The Intimacy of the Bridegroom and His Bride The Lord is not seeking mere admiration; He desires intimacy. Those who worship in spirit and truth (John 4:23-24) are known not just for their public declarations, but for private devotion. The Bride's heart is fully His, not content to know about Him but driven to know Him. "Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee." (Song of Solomon 1:4, KJV) Her surrender is not theoretical. It is lived out daily through obedience and the sacrifice of self. In a time when the love of many has waxed cold (Matthew 24:12), she burns brightly. II. The Fragrance of Obedient Worship The Bride's worship is not limited to melody but manifests as obedience. Her crushed will releases fragrant oil, echoing Gethsemane where Christ said,  "Nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done." (Luke 22:42, KJV...

The Trumpet: A Call to True Repentance

I. The Sound of the Trumpet and the Awakening of the Church Scripture declares a day is coming when the trumpet of the Lord will sound, signaling the return of Jesus Christ. “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first.” 1 Thessalonians 4:16 (KJV) This is a prophetic certainty. Yet, as Jesus warned, many will be unprepared when that moment arrives. “Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.” Matthew 25:1 (KJV) In this parable, five virgins were wise, having oil in their lamps, and five were foolish, neglecting their readiness. The oil represents the abiding presence of the Holy Spirit and an intimate relationship with Christ. When the Bridegroom came, only those prepared entered the wedding feast. This prophetic warning speaks directly to today’s Church. Many profess belief b...
