OIL SPILL UPDATE

NOTE VIA HIS MESSENGER: WHO HAS EARS TO HEAR! Can the Lord be speaking any louder, clearer in this hour?!?! FREEMASON ISLAND? Wow!

Updated May 06, 2010
Oil Sheen From Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Reaches Beach

The first confirmed sheen of oil from the massive spill in the Gulf of Mexico reached the land Thursday on the beach of an uninhibited Louisiana island, Reuters reported.

There had been reports for more than a week that oil had reached land, but Coast Guard officials told FoxNews.com none of them were confirmed by the joint government agencies responding to the spill.

"It's largely just sheen," Coast Guard Petty Officer Connie Terrell told Reuters. "There is no evidence of medium or heavy oil."

Officials were first notified Wednesday night about the oil on Freemason Island in the Chandeleur chain, and it was confirmed Thursday, a Coast Guard official told FoxNews.com.

AND....STOCK MARKET PLUNGE

The DOW dropped 346.51 points today (May 6th, 2010) (after dropping all week) to 10,520.32 (3.19 percent drop)---at one point today it was down 998 points.

While the Lord yet again proclaimed "THIS IS JUDGMENT", hitting yet again at the world's idol (greed, money)...how profound is it that this happened on the "National Day of Prayer".

The National Day of Prayer was signed into LAW in 1952 by President Truman. In 1988 Ronald Reagan amended it to be held on the first Thursday in May. It was OBAMA who deemed it "UNCONSTITUTIONAL" . In fact, Obama has not held prayer at the White House since he's been there; he fails to consider that by ending his speeches with "God bless America" he, himself IS speaking a prayer.

COINCIDENCE that the DOW fell almost 1000 points on this day? NO SUCH THING as coincidence, brethren....

Also noteworthy: an article was posted early Friday titled, "8 Theories For Why The Stock Market Plunged Almost 1,000 Points In A Matter Of Minutes" - - - that article didn't mention God.

STAY TUNED, BELOVED....the Lord spoke over 10 YEARS AGO that 2010 was the year that much of His judgments were to begin.

MORE JUDGMENT: NASHVILLE FLOODS

NOTE VIA HIS MESSENGER: Holy Spirit said "Dove Awards" and told me to look it up - sure enough the 'Christian' Dove Awards were just in Nashville on April 25th (just prior to the flooding). When the Lord had me working in christian radio, we learned from the artists themselves that the Dove Awards are a joke to the locals in Nashville - they said that "Christians" book all the hotels that were for sex (the ones with the porn movies, etc) , and that they rented many of the available sex videos (no matter what hotel they were staying in), etc. It was considered phenomenally profitable for the porn industry in downtown Nashville when the "Christians came to town" annually.

In that true believers CARRY God's anointing - when we enter then leave an area it should bring blessing (and yes, judgment); however perversion on the part of those who claim to REPRESENT CHRIST will bring judgment faster than most things.

Note that the very building where they held the Dove Awards downtown flooded.

Also note that 'christian' music is typically NOT of the Lord, is NOT inspired/birthed by Holy Spirit and therefore does NOT give the Lord glory. Anything having to do with personal fame is an affront.

NOTABLE STORY QUOTES:

"The flash floods caused by record-breaking amounts of rain caught many off-guard..."

"top Nashville tourist spots including the Country Music Hall of Fame and The Grand Ole Opry House were flooded."

"You never think something like this will happen in Nashville,"

"Gov. Phil Bredesen declared 52 of Tennessee's 95 counties as disaster areas. I've never seen flooding like this," he said.

"It was much higher than we expected," Jim Moser (Tennessee National Weather Service) said. The weather service listed the two-day total as 13.53 inches at the city's airport, outstripping the old record of 6.68 inches from the remnants of Hurricane Fredrick in 1979."

"The flash floods caused by record-breaking amounts of rain caught many off-guard, forcing thousands to frantically flee their homes and hotels. The rapidly rising waters led to the deaths of 17 people in Tennessee alone, including 10 in Nashville, and officials feared that the death toll could increase. Officials announced the latest deaths late Monday after receding flood waters revealed six more bodies. Do we suspect to find more people? Probably so."

Death Toll Rises as River Crests, Floods Nashville

Eighteen people have died in Tennessee, including 10 in Nashville, due to a severe storm system that caused widespread flash flooding and tornadoes.

AP

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Muddy waters poured over the banks of Nashville's swollen Cumberland River on Monday, spilling into Music City's historic downtown streets while rescuers using boats and Jet Skis plucked stranded residents away from their flooded homes as the death toll from the weekend storms climbed to 28 people in three states.

The flash floods caused by record-breaking amounts of rain caught many off-guard, forcing thousands to frantically flee their homes and hotels. The rapidly rising waters led to the deaths of 17 people in Tennessee alone, including 10 in Nashville, and officials feared that the death toll could increase. Officials announced the latest deaths late Monday after receding flood waters revealed six more bodies.

"Do we suspect to find more people? Probably so. We certainly hope that it's not a large number," said Metro Nashville Davidson County Fire Chief Kim Lawson.

Though the historic Ryman Auditorium -- the former home of the Grand Ole Opry -- and the recording studios of Music Row were not in immediate danger, parts of other top Nashville tourist spots including the Country Music Hall of Fame and The Grand Ole Opry House were flooded.

"You never think something like this will happen in Nashville," said Stan Milstead of Tulsa, Okla., as he watched the dark brown river waters creep deeper into downtown.

Weekend storms dumped more than 13 inches of rain in two days in the Nashville area, leading to a quick rise of the Cumberland River and its tributaries. The swollen river crested Monday evening at nearly 12 feet above flood stage in Nashville and was not expected to drop below its flood stage of 40 feet until Wednesday morning, National Weather Service meteorologist Mark Rose said.

Authorities closed off streets in downtown Nashville as forecasters predicted the Cumberland would crest there early as Monday night at about 12 feet above flood stage.

About five miles east of downtown, flooding forced about 1,500 guests from the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center to evacuate Sunday night to a high school, indefinitely shutting down one of the nation's largest hotel and convention centers.

"We had just finished eating and suddenly they said: 'Go! Go! Go!"' Gerdi Bauerle, 70, who was visiting from Munich, Germany, said Monday. "And we said 'Wait, we haven't even paid."'

Up to 10 feet of water stood in parts of the hotel, as restaurant chairs and crates of wine glasses floated by. A life-sized Elvis statue missing his guitar was laying on its back in the nearby parking lot of the Wax Museum of the Stars.

Water also flooded parts of the Grand Ole Opry House and Opry Mills Mall, which replaced the old Opryland USA theme park. Though it was not immediately known how much water was in the concert hall, managers were finding alternate space for upcoming shows.

Though the rain stopped falling on Monday, the river continued to inch upward in some places. Authorities and volunteers in fishing boats, an amphibious tour bus and a canoe scooped up about 500 trapped vacationers at the Wyndham Resort along the river near Opryland. Rescuers had to steer through a maze of underwater hazards including submerged cars, some with their tops barely visible above floodwaters the color of milk chocolate.

Bill Crousser was riding his Jet Ski past a neighbor's house when he rescued a man, his wife and their dog moments before flames from a fire in the garage broke through the roof. The woman was taken to a hospital to be examined.

"We just got the hell out of there," Crousser said.

As flood waters receded elsewhere, more victims were found in Nashville and other parts on Tennessee on Monday evening.

One body was discovered in a wooded area outside a Nashville supermarket, and another woman was found dead in a home on the western side of town, city spokeswoman Gwen Hopkins said Monday night. Police said a man's body was found in standing water in Bellevue, one of the hardest hit parts of Nashville; nearby the body of an elderly woman was recovered in her home.

The weekend storms also killed six people in Mississippi and four in Kentucky, including one man whose truck ran off the road and into a flooded creek. One person was also killed by a tornado in western Tennessee.

In downtown Nashville, water filled the basement of the Schermerhorn Symphony Center where pianos were stored and speed into a mechanical room in the Country Music Hall of Fame. Five inches of water backed up through storm drains into the Bridgestone Arena, damaging dressing rooms and the floor where the NHL's Nashville Predators play. Across downtown on the river's east bank, water covered the grass inside LP Field, home of the NFL's Tennessee Titans.

Gov. Phil Bredesen declared 52 of Tennessee's 95 counties as disaster areas after finishing an aerial tour and said he talked with President Barack Obama. Bredesen saw flooding so extensive that tree tops looked like islands as he flew from Nashville to western Tennessee.

"I've never seen flooding like this," he said.

Jim Moser, a forecaster with the National Weather Service in Nashville, said a slow-moving weather system pumped up Gulf moisture into highly unstable air over Tennessee. The result was strong storms dumping heavy rains that caught most of the city and surrounding area by surprise.

"It was much higher than we expected," Moser said. The weather service listed the two-day total as 13.53 inches at the city's airport, outstripping the old record of 6.68 inches from the remnants of Hurricane Fredrick in 1979.

Officials said about 50 Nashville schools were damaged. Floodwaters submerged hundreds of homes in the Bellevue suburb on Nashville's west side, including Lisa Blackmon's. She escaped with her dog and her car but feared she lost everything else.

"I know God doesn't give us more than we can take," said Blackmon, 45, who lost her job at a trucking company in December. "But I'm at my breaking point."

Mayor Karl Dean and city officials repeatedly implored residents Monday to conserve water after one of two water treatment plants was flooded. As the rising Cumberland River threatened a levee that protected the remaining plant, neighborhoods and businesses northwest of downtown, city workers and about 200 volunteers frantically filled and stacked sandbags.

Morgan Castillo, 29, drove from the Nashville suburb of Hermitage to help. "It seems like everyone is waiting until it's too late," she said. "And then the next thing you know is you're on the roof."

Crews worked to restore electricity with about 13,400 still without power, but the Nashville Electric Service was slowed because one of its repair centers was flooded. Statewide, about 22,000 remained without power as of Monday evening.

Many residents who fled their homes worried about what they left behind.

Lucy Owens, 46, said she had to leave so quickly on Sunday night that she didn't have time to grab her family's 100-year-old Bible and afghan made by her mother, who died about a month ago. She said she first tried escape in her truck, but when she couldn't drive past her mailbox because the water was too high, she screamed for help and a police officer came and took her and son to a point where a boat could rescue them. By then, water was up to her ribcage.

"I got no notice. No one said nothing about evacuating. I did what they said and stayed put. I didn't get out. I didn't drive. Then it just all happened so fast," she said.

BE YE HOLY

RE: THE OIL SPILL JUDGMENT

The Lord has been speaking to me about this oil situation since it began. The initial headlines read (Wednesday, April 21, 2010 at 12:40pm):

*11 workers missing after La. oil rig explodes
*Oil Rig Ravaged by Blast Sinks in Gulf of Mexico
*Blast at Louisiana Rig Jolts the Oil World

This week (Thursday, April 29th, 2010) the Lord had me post:

Sabotage? Or Judgment?
Thu at 2:24pm
The Lord told me that the exploding oil platform was indeed done on purpose. Watch oil prices especially this summer (they have been looking for any excuse to raise gasoline prices).

Friday, April 30th, He spoke:

"My Spirit will not contend with man forever," saith the Lord
Fri at 8:39pm

The Lord was speaking to me several hours earlier about the oil slick and I then got a call and had to run an errand to help someone.

Just as 9/11 was judgment, hitting America at the heart of it's idolatry (MONEY) - this too is judgment and the same judgment (as once again man's idol - money - is at its core). They say that 5 million gallons of oil per day are being lost - - -and estimate 19 million (billion?) gallons total before it's all done. (that said, however, they keep finding more and more oil spilling up). In fact they are labeling it in many headlines the "mystery oil spill".

Was this on purpose? Absolutely.
Is it going to cost us? You betcha.

Today winds and bad weather came to keep it from being cleaned up.

The Lord sent me back to the headlines a few minutes ago and the Alabama governor has declared a state of emergency. One newscaster said that area is line a sponge, soaking up everything. It is being called the worst oil spill in history.

Bottom line - the Lord is almost done 'tolerating' man's sin.

Genesis 6:3a:
"My Spirit will not contend with man forever.."

Amos 9:8:
Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD.

Psalm 24:1:
The earth is the LORD's, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

1 Corinthians 10:26:
For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.

On Saturday, May 1st, 2010 He showed me the following headline:

Oil Spill Triples in size
AP

Gulf oil spill has grown tremendously in only a few days, moving faster and expanding quicker than previously thought, as rough seas thwart cleanup effort.

TODAY (Sunday, May 2nd, 2010) the Lord spoke the following:

Regarding the judgment of the spilled oil

Oil. Black GOLD. The Lord has already expressed to you all that this has been JUDGMENT. A strike against man's heart of idolatry (that idol being money/prosperity). Men kill and manipulate for oil. It affects each and every person alive in one way or another.

How you may ask?

Beyond the obvious everyday uses for oil - your car and electricity and your gas stoves - there are the countless people whose livelihoods are dependent upon fishing those waters (which are now closed to any and all fishing....which then has a trickle down effect to those who sell them fishing bait, the markets who buy the fish, etc.

BEYOND THAT there are more than 4,000 petrochemical products that are made from petroleum (crude oil).

Some of the most popular and frequently used products:

■Artificial Limbs
■Bags (garbage bags, shopping bags)
■Balloons
■Bandaids
■Candles
■Clothing (polyester, nylon)
■Combs
■Computers, calculators
■Crayons
■Credit Cards
■Dishwashing Liquids
■Disposable Diapers
■Eye Glasses, Sunglasses
■Fertilizers
■Fishing Rods
■Flooring (linoleum, tiles, carpets)
■Garden Hose
■Hand Lotion, Cream, Petroleum Jelly
■Helmets (bicycle, hockey, etc.)
■Heart Valves
■Helmets (bicycle, hockey, etc.)
■Insect Repellent
■Insecticides
■Life Jackets
■Milk Jugs
■Paint Brushes
■Panty Hose
■Parachutes
■Patio Furniture
■Pens
■Perfume
■Rope (nylon)
■Safety Glass
■Shampoo
■Shower Curtains, Shower Doors
■Soft Contact Lenses
■Soft Drink Bottles, Plastic Bottles
■Tape (clear, masking, etc.)
■Tapes - (cassettes, vcr tapes)
■Telephones
■Tennis rackets
■Tents
■Toys, Dolls, Model Cars
■Tires (synthetic rubber)
■Toothbrushes, Toothpaste Tubes
■Trash Bags
■TV Cabinets
■Umbrellas
■Unbreakable Dishes
■Waterproof Jackets, Boots, Pant

ALL of those industries. All of those manufacturers. All of those employees. All of their families. The media keeps touting the affect upon the environment. (Do you realize how much of the land in America is already destroyed from hurricanes never cleaned up completely, tornadoes, floods, fires, drought?). They are saying this oil slick will reach the Atlantic Ocean and start spreading up the entire east coast.

BEYOND the environmental devastation - this is an economic death knell. The fake gains/manipulations on Wall Street; all the people with foreclosed homes; - the unemployment outside of this situation already affection millions...none of it compares to this.

Now people cannot work in how many industries because of this situation of judgment? How much will prices of goods rise? What sort of desperation will millions of families experience. Desperation that leads to a feeling of "what do I do now?" Which can lead to lawlessness, a willingness to do ANYTHING to provide for their family.

JUDGMENT.

The dictionary says: "a misfortune regarded as inflicted by divine sentence, as for sin."

DIVINE judgment.

NO ONE CAN MANIPULATE THIS. True, they are saying BP Oil didn't do this and that (blah blah blah) to prepare for such an event. What is MOST PROFOUND is that they are calling it a "MYSTERY". That thus far, whatever they've tried to do to stop it, NOTHING WORKS. "Foiled again" read the headlines. "Thwarted again". It just keeps getting bigger. And bigger. And more devastating to not only the economy of the United States but the entire world.

AND, they don't know what to do. THEY cannot make it better. THEY cannot spin it. It will do what it is meant to do. Until and when the Lord says "ENOUGH". And then Holy Spirit will whisper into the ears of those meant to work this out how to make it better. But it is GOD CONTROLLED start to finish.

Beyond the everyday folks this is also especially harsh toward the power brokers - those who make the decisions for the rest of the world. It is almost as devastating to them as if the market had crashed. But then GOD is the one in control of ALL THINGS - and THAT is a lesson most haven't, don't and perhaps won't ever realized.

So too was 9/11 judgment upon man's idol = wealth. How many died during that lesson? How many, while NOT dying because of this, will be equally affected? Thousands? Millions? All?

And yet NONE OF THIS should affect the life of one who recognizes and lives in Jesus Christ. (It will affect your outer physical circumstances perhaps, but WE DO NOT LIVE ACCORDING TO OUR CIRCUMSTANCES - PHYSICAL CIRCUMSTANCES ARE PART OF THE WORLD SYSTEM, PART OF WHAT AFFECTS THE FLESH --- oh, how far- reaching, beloved, the lessons of dying to self, crucifying the flesh - so that your eyes, your heart, your life is NEVER EVER affected by that which is going on around you, that which affects the world - BUT NOT THE BELIEVER IN CHRIST JESUS! ).

Remember when He said, "A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee."? (Psalm 91:7). GET YOUR EYES OFF THE CIRCUMSTANCES and gaze into His lovely eyes. HE IS PROVIDER; HE IS SAVIOUR. HE IS ABLE TO KEEP YOU NO MATTER WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE WORLD, IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE. AS LONG AS YOU REMAIN IN HIS EMBRACE. AS LONG AS YOU KNOW WHO HE IS AND WHO YOU ARE TO HIM. AS LONG AS YOU KEEP YOUR EYES UPON HIM!

As for those suffering...those for whom this judgment was released:

With judgment comes a chance to receive Christ. YOU (the believer) must have absolute hearing, discernment. When you help (in and of yourself, without Him asking you to) those whom God is trying to reach you interfere with His eternal purposes. Some people HAVE to get to their lowest point in order for a Holy God to get them beyond their own pride and resourcefulness, so that they become humble enough to receive Him as LORD. You must ASK HIM and HEAR how or even IF you are to help, and if so, how He would have you do so (whether preaching the good news, or prayer, or even financial - it is UP TO HIM) .

There ARE THOSE whom He has assigned to go to these people - but then, since He knew this would happen from before the foundation of the earth, do you not know and believe that He has those ordained people - already in place - who are going to minister a kind word, who will help where He chooses?

Oh, if you could get an awakening of just how precise the Lord is when it comes to those who are ordained to come to Him before the end of it all....ah...there is no detail left undone.

BE STILL AND KNOW THAT HE IS GOD. Receive the impartation of wisdom of just how big of a God He is!

BE STILL AND KNOW just how loving He is - the depths He is willing to go to to make the way for one of His lost souls to come to repentance, salvation, eternity! No matter what it takes, He will stop at nothing - in His grace, in His mercy, to draw His own unto Himself!

BEYOND hearing Him and knowing that which He has to say about your life (how this may rock the financial world, the manufacturing world, the overall economy, but that none of it affects YOU personally as a believer for He IS YOUR SOURCE!) - - - YOUR part (as His minister of the Gospel, as His hands and feet) is to hear if there IS a part for you in this.

YOUR part is to listen. To go to Him and look into His eyes, to sit at His feet, and let Him tell you what He would have you do/not do. It is the same every moment of every day - you are to do NOTHING without asking Him what and how and when.

What are the next verses after "A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee"...???

"You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

If you make the Most High your dwelling—
even the LORD, who is my refuge-

then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.

YOU MUST HAVE FAITH - ONLY BELIEVE!
YOU MUST KEEP YOUR EYES ONLY UPON HIM, LOOKING NEITHER TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT.

THERE IS EVEN MORE DEVASTATION TO COME - YET -
HE WILL KEEP YOU ALWAYS.

ONLY BELIEVE.

Psalm 91

1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

(HOLY SPIRIT ADMONISHED THE READERS: "DO NOT BECOME BLASE' ABOUT PSALM 91 - THERE IS LIFE, THERE IS TRUTH, THERE IS DEPTH HERE THAT NEEDS TO BE EMBRACED. EACH TIME YOU READ THESE VERSES, YOU SHOULD GAIN NEW INSIGHT, MORE FAITH, GREATER DISCERNMENT. THESE SCRIPTURES ARE KEY FOR THE DAYS OF ONSLAUGHT THAT ARE TO COME.")
