During John's experience in the book of Revelation, he saw a mighty angel coming down out of heaven, with his face like the sun and legs like columns of fire. The angel set one foot on the sea and his other foot on the land. His shout was like the roaring of a lion. At one point, the angel raised his right hand to heaven and made this declaration:"Time has run out."-Revelation 10:6 (VOICE)We may have come to one of those junctures in time. It may be that the time has run out. Life as we have known it may be a thing of the past. What has been prophesied by so many for years is finally here.For several years, established prophetic voices have been telling us that rough times are coming. John Paul Jackson described these times as a Perfect Storm of calamities involving economic, political, and religious events, along with wars and catastrophic events in the weather and in nature. The time is now upon us. So, what should we do? What is the best way to face this time, which may bring many difficulties?

As long as there have been people living on Earth, God has been speaking to them. God has always expressed a desire to communicate what He is doing and what He is going to do.There is no doubt that God still speaks today. He speaks powerfully, and He speaks often. Just as we must learn to recognize God speaking to us personally, we must also recognize that there are some important messages that God will speak to others. These messages do not carry the weight of Scripture, so they may not be perfect. They may even contain mistakes, because they are communicated through imperfect people, but if we are alert to discern and to hear these messages, many of them can provide some valuable insight for us."Whoever has ears, let them hear."-Matthew 13:9 (NIV)With blessings,Alan Drake
