As I was preparing for the day, I said to the LORD, "I do not know what to say, today. I do not know how to proceed."
He answered and said, "The wicked shall be like chaff."
This comes from the first chapter of Psalms. No, I did not look it up. I merely recalled it when He said it.
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in His law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.
The ungodly are not so: but are like chaff which the wind driveth away. Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. -- 1:1-6
Once again, the Spirit is calling for a separation from the ungodly. As I preached the message today, I was profoundly aware that time really has run out for the non repentant. Any who hope to be saved must repent now. Very soon it will be too late.
I am seeking Him for a more definite time frame, but everything He shows me has an urgency to it. We are actively making plans as I ask. I learned today that some others are advising Christians to be prepared to move quickly. I believe much will depend are how prepared we are.
In the dream I saw many escaping Kansas, but there have been many here who sought to deliver the children. Some have given countless hours of their time, and all of their heart to saving these precious babies. The sad thing is many, many more will perish because they regarded neither the children or the holy God of heaven.
I had hoped by calling for revival that He would give us that first, but I do not believe that will happen now. Perhaps there will be some form of revival as we go, but I do not think it will come here.
Whatever God wills is what will be. Fighting Him is the greatest folly there is. I have assured Him I will go and do as pleases Him. If you are wise, you will do the same. No one -- especially pseudo-Christians -- will escape His hand.

The Spirit is Moving
The Spirit is moving mightily here in Wichita, Kansas as more and more are getting excited about reaching out to the lost and dying outside the local death-pit. How can anyone get excited about that? Well, when His servants show up in His Spirit, it's contagious.
I'm going and preaching almost daily, sometimes even at the request of other witnesses. It literally is like striking a match in the darkness, kindling the fire in the hearts of those within hearing. So, the Spirit is working among us. We are glorifying Him, and He is responding.
Some workers already have a copy of the new "Come Singing" brochure and are preparing to copy and share it abroad in the area. Not only is it an encouragement tool, but it clarifies the need for pure worship onsite. Some have even said they would take it to their churches, or copy it to everyone they know!
If revival for this nation begins in Wichita, it will likely be at this local pit. We are tearing down the devil's stronghold, one day at a time.
If you support this ministry, please pray that God will invigorate the workers here even more than He already is. If you're nearby, come and join us. We may not meet in a building, but we are having church on the street!
To HIS glory,
Betty

Any Excuse Will Do
As fb continues to refuse me entrance, I am moved to share here what God is doing here in Kansas -- for the Spirit is moving mightily among us. Clinic workers are being given the word daily. They are being called to repentance. They are being warned of the Biblical consequences of their actions. And they are being pled with to repent before God's wrath comes upon them. Likewise abortive parents are being offered help, cautioned regarding the consequences, offered the truth of Scripture, and pled with to have mercy on their children. It's a scene straight from the gates of hell once you realize that these really are little babies that are being brutalized to death for a fee.
As I went up this morning to preach, the Spirit impressed the barbarity of it upon me quite strongly. Seriously, the brutality of the past truly has nothing on the brutality of the present. We are as inhumane as the Mayans and as ruthless as the Mongolians, and more prolific than Hitler's Germany. Without question the children are treated as though they were nothing more than a cancerous tumor to be removed without remorse or even the tiniest of considerations. It is by far the worst horror movie script ever. Yet, it is an almost everyday occurrence in many of our nation's cities.
Now this is so because so because those who promote abortion are far more active than those who oppose, and this fact is exceedingly disappointing to the Holy God of Heaven. He gave these children to be gifts and expected us to be His light in this darkness. We chose to be complicit in their murders, that we might not offend their murderers. So, those who promote were given an almost unrestricted freedom to do their very worst, and that they have done to the tune of over 61 million precious, little one-of-a-kind, adorable babies. So, the Spirit rose up in me in wrath that these things are true, and I began to preach.
The first thing I try to do is call to attention all that listens as I do not speak idly. No true servant of God does. No, we speak as He wills and what we say carries real weight -- not because we say it, but because He is speaking through us. So, I tend to herald my Master clearly. I do not want those who listen to misunderstand, thinking perhaps I speak of myself. That would be wrong because the danger is very real and the One I represent is very dangerous. He is inescapable, and all-powerful. Even as I'm standing there, spiritually on the edge of the precipice between heaven and hell, I cannot help but be aware that He is listening and that my pleading has eternal consequences. It's often my opportunity to call them back from the abyss, and it may well be their last opportunity to repent. So, it's a very sombre situation.
This all being true the Spirit was strong on me and the message was powerful, and I preached for a goodly time. Most who preach prepare ahead of time. They pick their Scriptures and make notes on the points they want to cover. While I do have Scripture notes, I do not really pick which ones to preach on. No, for preaching such as this I ask God even as I am standing to deliver. Why? Only God knows what these people need to hear. Children are dying not twenty feet from where I stand. How can I deliver them? The truth is I cannot -- only God can. Therefore, it should not be me who chooses what I should say, but the One I serve.
This morning's message was powerful indeed. Those who heard it were moved. Not because I preached it. No, because God ordained it. Here's the thing: If we are to win this war -- and believe me we are truly at war -- one that will either be the end of our nation or the salvation of it, we absolutely must stop making this about ourselves. We need to make God our priority.
Prosperity teaching has done a lot of damage to our nation. Perhaps the biggest problem is that it has helped to create a people too focused on "what's in it for me". Now, it's true there are those that work because they are putting God first; but many, many more consider themselves first. It is one of the primary reasons people do not try to save the children. I'm talking about professing Christianity here. Professing Christianity is far more interested in being blessed than saving the children's lives. "It's too controversial. It's too heartbreaking. It's too dangerous. It's too much to ask!" Pretty much any excuse will keep them out of the fight while our nation drowns in little baby blood. How selfish. How inexcusable. How unChristlike! Yet, we have church after church filled to the brim with nothing but.
Enough! Time to step out of our comfort zones and get to work. Do you know how few bother? Well, consider this in an area of over 700 churches, you'd be blessed to have 50 faithful workers! Very blessed. The majority of those churches might well be filled to overflowing with pew-warmers, but real active Christians are near extinction in this United States. Now that's sobering, horrifyingly sobering. No, we're not His light in the darkness. We're barely a spark in the shadows.
