The Lion Goes Forth!
The night of February 28th, 2018, I had the following vision/word while speaking with William Thompson. William had just said he could feel the anger of God over the distraction of His people, and that many had set up Asherah poles, which were keeping them from coming to the temple of God.
Just as he was explaining what the Lord was showing, that Jesus was roaring as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah with fire issuing from His mouth, I saw the following vision:
The face of a huge lion appeared in front of me. He opened his mouth and began ROARING LOUDLY. He then turned and began to run. With each angry roar, fire shot forth from his mouth like a river.
As the lion ran, I was right with him, although at first slightly behind. After a few moments, I realized I was no longer behind Him, but we were running as one. We began running throughout all the earth. With each roar, fire went forth to consume and purify all things. As we ran, I kept hearing in my spirit,
“The Lion of the tribe of Judah goes forth!”
End of Vision
Early the next morning, I was in prayer when the Holy Spirit came upon me. I rose to my feet and began to pray mightily in the Spirit.
The vision of the night before began to replay, and I heard and felt roaring coming up from within me and out my mouth! I felt the anger and the fury of the Lord as He roared within His Church. Fire went forth to consume everything unclean and detestable, and purifying that which remained. After a short while, He turned toward the outside of the church and began to run throughout the earth. Then I heard these words:
“He has a body now!”
The morning of March 6th, the Lord spoke the following:
“Judgment will begin at My House!”
“The snakes and scorpions will be exposed.”
“Much blood will flow in the cleansing of My Temple.”
Before the date of this posting, I received multiple confirmations that the Lord is warning His people of His anger over what’s happening within His church. Here are a few:
A sister in the Lord wrote: “Diana….The Lord came to me this morning and revealed…the same way he turned the tables over, he is about to start turning the tables over again…He is very angry!”
Another said: “On my way to work this morning, The Good Lord was saying BRIDE COME FORTH. He has awakened himself in us, THE BRIDE.”
And William has been shown the Lord is angry over the obsession of His people with their modern day Asherah poles. In ancient times, they were a sacred tree or constructed pole near Canaanite religious locations in honor of the mother goddess Asherah. The pagan poles expanded to honor all kinds of gods, and were found on the tops of hills and referred to in scripture as “high places.”
As the nation of Israel fell into idolatry, they began erecting Asherah poles. They would worship at the poles instead of making a trip to the temple, and this was an abomination to God!
That is what many in the “church” are doing today. God’s people are erecting poles around pastors, teachers, prophets, etc. These offices were set up by God for the work of the ministry, to equip His people for works of service, but many are only going as far as that minister or prophet. They are not entering into the presence of the Lord to seek His Face for themselves!
The words of men are being exalted. This is a very dangerous time, because mixed in among true ministers and prophets of God are the ravening wolves sent to devour the flock. By worshipping at these modern day poles, people are running to and fro desperately seeking the next episode of what can only be described as fear porn. It’s become a soap opera of who’s saying what is going to happen next.
Without seeking the Face of God for wisdom and discernment, the sheep are unable to discern truth from lies. All their trust is put into the latest “word” received from this or that celebrity of the moment. This is blatant idolatry, and is a stench in the nostrils of God!
The Lord has issued strong warning to the false shepherds and prophets (see “I Will Judge the False Shepherds & Prophets…”), but you and I, as members of the Body of Christ, are the first line of defense against being deceived and living in idolatry. We are told to pray without ceasing (1 Thess. 5:16-18) and to study to show ourselves approved, rightly dividing the word of truth (2 Tim. 2:15). If you are seeking the Lord in prayer and study, walking in an intimate relationship with Him, the Holy Spirit will confirm the words of His true pastors and prophets; and likewise expose the false.
Summation:
The visions and words received have begun in the spirit realm and will soon manifest into the natural.
“The Lion of the tribe of Judah goes forth!”
“He has a body now!”
“Judgment will begin at My House!”
“The snakes and scorpions will be exposed.”
“Much blood will flow in the cleansing of My Temple.”
The Lion of the Tribe of Judah is angry, roaring, with fire issuing forth. His Bride is awakening and will soon walk in His Fullness upon the earth. She will stretch forth her hand and be used as His Instrument of Righteousness to punish all disobedience.
Make no mistake about this; the fire will go forth to the house of God first, destroying everything not of Him, and purifying what remains. His fury will then be turned towards the nations!
As always, please pray over what has been shared here, asking for confirmation and revelation as to how this may apply to you.
