THE LORD'S BOOMING VOICE:  I will NEVER forget you

A Word about America and Israel

 

RHEMA 6/07/10  STRONG WORD:  I will NEVER forget you

Today I had taken something off my computer that reminded me of a broken relationship.  I had done everything I could to repair to no avail, and as a mother for a child, I had invested so much into this person's life.  It hurt me to take the reminder off, but I had been in grieving intercession for so many years and no longer wanted to be reminded of the pain of what had broken.  Tonight as I was praying this, I heard the Lord's BOOMING VOICE and it was far from being His still small voice.

 

HEARD (inner audible):  I will never forget you!!

 

I pondered this for several days because I KNEW it was the Lord even if I did not understand what He meant. 

 

Near the end of 2003, I heard this same booming voice.  I was in a very busy and noisy restaurant with my family and all of a sudden all the noise came to a hush and it felt like I was put in some kind of a sound proof bubble.  I was so surprised at this because I saw the lips of my family talking to one another around the table, but all I heard was this total hush.  And as soon as I noticed all of this, I heard the Lord's BOOMING voice.  He said, "I will NEVER, NEVER LEAVE OR FORSAKE YOU!"  It shook me, resonated into my being and totally impacted me to hear Him say this so forcefully.  Then the noise of the restaurant came back and I was shocked that my family was still busy talking to one another as though they had not heard that booming voice. 

 

As I sat there stunned by the experience, my first impression after hearing the Lord Jesus say this to me, was "Why?  Who is dying??"  A few months later began one of the hardest intercessions I have ever gone through in my life, regarding the same person.  I went through a great amount of death to self and the Lord used all that I went through as an intercession for multiplication of His Word and promises.

 

UNDERSTANDING UPDATE 6/10/10:  Today on the way home from an appt I once again asked Him why He said that in such a BOOMING way this week.  As soon as I acknowledged that Jesus Himself spoke to me, "I will never forget you!" the following scripture came to mind, and so I prayed the scripture out loud on the way home.  I realized as I was praying it, that after so much agony, this was the Lord's answer to give me understanding.

 

Isa 49:14-23 AMP

But Zion [Jerusalem, her people as seen in captivity] said, The Lord has forsaken me, and my Lord has forgotten me.  15 [And the Lord answered] Can a woman forget her nursing child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? Yes, they may forget, yet I will not forget you.  16 Behold, I have indelibly imprinted (tattooed a picture of) you on the palm of each of My hands; [O Zion] your walls are continually before Me. 

 

Your children and your builders make haste; your destroyers and those who laid you waste go forth from you.  18 Lift up your eyes round about and see [the returning exiles, ready to rebuild Jerusalem]; all these gather together and come to you. As I live, says the Lord, you [Zion] shall surely clothe yourself with them all as with an ornament and bind them on you as a bride does.  19 For your waste and desolate places and your land [once the scene] of destruction surely now [in coming years] will be too narrow to accommodate the population, and those who once swallowed you up will be far away. 20 The children of your bereavement [born during your captivity] shall yet say in your ears, The place is too narrow for me; make room for me, that I may live.

 

Then [Zion], you will say in your heart, Who has borne me all these children, seeing that I lost my offspring and am alone and barren and unfruitful, an exile put away and wandering hither and thither? And who brought them up? Behold, I was left alone [put away by the Lord, my Husband]; from where then did all these children come?

 

Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I will lift up My hand to the Gentile nations and set up My standard and raise high My signal banner to the peoples; and they will bring your sons in the bosom of their garments, and your daughters will be carried upon their shoulders. 23 And kings shall be your foster fathers and guardians, and their queens your nursing mothers. They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth and lick up the dust of your feet; and you shall know [with an acquaintance and understanding based on and grounded in personal experience] that I am the Lord; for they shall not be put to shame who wait for, look for, hope for, and expect Me.

 

SANDY COMMENTS:  When I got home I saw that Tao had posted to my forum.  Tao knew nothing of my experience of hearing the Lord's booming voice. 

 

TAO CONFIRMATION  6/10/10  GOD BE MERCIFUL TO AMERICA!

 

TAO EXPERIENCE:  Very early in the morning(6/10/10), I woke up from a very emotional and desperate prayer. The prayer was very simple "God, be merciful to America..." I repeated it a couple of times, then I prayed a Bible scripture at the end. The scripture is Isaiah 49:15 "Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!"

After praying the scripture, I woke up.

 

Immediately I thought of the following scriptures from Mark 10:

 

Blind Bartimaeus Receives His Sight
Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples, together with a large crowd, were leaving the city, a blind man, Bartimaeus (that is, the Son of Timaeus), was sitting by the roadside begging. 47When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" 48Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

49Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." So they called to the blind man, "Cheer up! On your feet! He's calling you."50 Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus. 51"What do you want me to do for you?" Jesus asked him. The blind man said, "Rabbi, I want to see." 52"Go," said Jesus, "your faith has healed you." Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.


Just like Blind Bartimaeus shouted "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" we need the same for America at this time.

As I ponder on this, I strongly sense that America comes to the desperate place to need His MERCY. It is not an option but it is a must. It is the time for the church to wake up and cry to the Lord “Lord, have Mercy on America”.

Love and blessings,

Tao

 

SANDY COMMENTS CONTINUED:  When combining both Words, I believe the Lord is saying that though America is refusing her Godly foundations of "In God We Trust", and she is pushing Him out of our schools, government, laws and social morals, that God will not forget nor forsake her, EVER.  I also understand the great agony and grief He is going through in loving America and Israel so much, and how He continues to suffer long over His wayward children.  I strongly believe this is also a Word for Israel because the scripture is about Israel and speaks of her walls continually are before Him.  Last night on one of the Christian channels, I saw a Jewish man kissing the western wall as he prayed.  Israel is in a great desperate place too and our destiny is connected with hers.
