September, 2007

Shalom Y’all,

August has been another month of much travel. The dear Lord is moving so quickly now that it is difficult to keep up with Him, but I try. On August 14^th, He told me that the following day He was going to begin moving across the Southern States from California to Florida , uncovering the sin and iniquity of those who minister in His Name. Once again He said that many who minister in His Name have profaned His Name and prostituted their anointing. They have done so with great arrogance! He went on to say that He has warned and warned, but to no avail. Now He will begin to uncover them.

In Denver , Colorado a prominent pastor was falsifying life insurance documents to profit from the deaths in his congregation. He has been charged with seven counts of theft and five counts of forgery. Another pastor in Tennessee has been charged with paying for his daughter’s wedding with the congregation’s money, as well as having porno on the computer and being involved in an affair with a staff member.

A prominent evangelical leader who was recently brought down because of homosexual involvement has sent out a letter to those who supported him in the past asking them to support him and his wife, through a non-profit ministry, while they both go to school. He said that it will be about two years before they will be able to support themselves.

Randy & Paula White have once again made headlines all across the country because of their flamboyant lifestyle and now their divorce. It was also made known that every member of their large congregation was required to give one week’s salary to the pastor every year. It was also made known that Paula has acquired yet another home to the tune of more than $300,000 dollars. I am hearing many people, within and without the Church, ask just how many homes these ministers can live in at one time. Thank God that He is uncovering and showing Christians what their money is supporting.

Headlines across the country have been speaking of Juanita Bynum being assaulted and her estranged husband turning himself in to the authorities. They speak of Juanita adding “actress” to her already full resume of preacher, teacher, prophetess, singer, author, real estate mogul, and entrepreneur, as she now has a new line of sleepwear called “The Art of Sleeping”. She is due to appear in her first role in the upcoming big-screen release of “Mama, I Want to Sing!” The film is due to be released in November. Is it any wonder that the media speaks of these ministers as having “ Big Buck Ministries ?”

Dr. D. James Kennedy has resigned from the pastorate. Dr. Kennedy was struck with a heart attack last December. A few months later his doctors put in a pace-maker, however he has shown no improvement. Finally he was admitted to a rehab center in Michigan , and just this past week his daughter announced his resignation.

Dr. Kennedy has been a Replacement Theology teacher for many years and the Theological Seminary that he founded has turned out many Replacement Theology pastors and teachers. He has been one of those who led the fight against Israel in support of her enemies, for many years. He taught that the Church has replaced Israel .

I was sent to speak with Dr. Kennedy in 1991 and I know others were sent to him as well, but to no avail. After sharing the Scriptures with him, and what God had shown me, his answer was, “You say that we are to support Israel !” And my answer was, “No, Sir, the Lord said it!”

It is my prayer that the Lord will bring conviction leading to repentance upon this Pastor and sustain his life until such time as he has an opportunity to speak the truth to all the students, who are now pastors and teachers, that he led in to error. Replacement Theology is from the pit! One more reminder of the Scriptures that say, “Blessed are those who bless Israel , but cursed are those who curse her”.

How I pray that what has come upon these ministers of the Gospel will be enough to cause the fear of God to fall upon the rest of us who carry His Name. Hopefully they will all be restored. The Lord has likened the judgment He is bringing upon the Church to an earthquake under it and a whirlwind coming down upon the heads of the Church leaders. He is a holy God and we, too, must be holy as He is holy, if we are to represent Him.

August 15^th began a period of forty days which carry us through Rosh Ha Shanah, which is also known as the Feast of Trumpets, and ending on Yom Kippur, which is known as the Day of Atonement on the Hebrew calendar. These forty days are a time of prayer and inner reflection. It is a time for admitting sins, repenting of sins and turning back to God, asking Him to forgive us and wipe our slate clean. It is also a time when we ask forgiveness of anyone else we might have hurt or offended in any way in the past.

Rosh Ha Shanah is the beginning of the 10 days called the High Holy Days. Shofars are sounded 100 times a day to be sure that everyone hears them and realizes that the Day of Judgment is near. The sound of the Shofar is a call to repent and turn back to God. It is my prayer that we will hear Shofars blowing all across our nation, and all across Israel , so that no one will be able to ask, “Why didn’t someone tell me, or why was I not warned?”

Since 1997 the Lord has been sending me out to call the Church to awaken, repent and turn back to Him. There have been many others He has sent out to do the same. However, it has only been a small Remnant, those who are wholeheartedly committed to the Lord, who have heard and responded to His call. This year it is with great urgency that the Lord has been keeping me out on the road sounding the alarm of coming judgment, and although some are awakening, it is mostly the Remnant responding to His call. This month He has kept me moving within the borders of Florida . Let me say to those of you who are living in Florida , especially South Florida , “Hear the Sound of the Shofar!” The Shofar is a symbol of power! It is broken off and hollowed out to be used as the very breath of God. We should respond to the sound of the Shofar with reverence!

Judge Not That You Be Not Judged!

This is the first verse of Scripture that many are very quick to speak when they are hearing something that they don’t want to hear, or word of correction is being spoken concerning those they have placed upon pedestals. It is true that we are not to judge those outside the Church, but we certainly are to judge those who are in the Church. We are to test the spirits! We are told in Scripture that we will know them by their fruit.

Always keep in mind how Paul confronted Peter, speaking strongly and publicly against what he was doing, for he was being hypocritical and others were beginning to do as he was doing. Also, think about Stephen as he corrected the religious leaders for deliberately disobeying God and rejecting the Holy Spirit. Jesus, too, corrected the religious leaders for their hypocrisy.

Paul was not hesitant to correct the Corinthians when they were found with a man in their midst who was involved in sexual immorality. He chastised them for not putting the man out of the Church. He told them they were a spiritually proud people.

Today, the Church is so full of the world and the sins of the world that the dear Lord is telling His Remnant to know those they are networking with. He has gone so far as to say, “If you don’t know who you can trust, ask Me and I will tell you!”

The same holds true as to where you give your tithes and offerings. Your tithes and offerings are very precious to the Lord. Quite honestly, He has been angered to see the way so many ministers have mismanaged or squandered the monies that they have been entrusted with. Let us all remember the sins of Eli’s wicked sons. The Scriptures tell us that their sin was very great in the Lord’s sight because they treated the Lord’s offerings with contempt. They died before their time because of what they were doing.

It has only been a few years ago when a minister in Virginia, who also had his own business, was visited by a prophet of the Lord and told to stop intermingling the money from his business with the money given to the Lord’s work. He was warned that if he continued to do as he had been doing, he would die. Needless to say, he did not heed the warning and in just three months time he was dead for no apparent reason at the age of 50. He had always been in excellent health, and no one could understand how it could have happened. Again, let me say that our gifts given to the Lord’s work are precious in His sight, and He does watch over them. Again, we must pray for the fear of God to fall upon those who receive and distribute His money. He truly is watching!!!

A Warning to the Church!

“Many fraudsters and scamsters have entered the Body of Christ. America is under confusion! Until the fraudsters and scamsters are dealt with by the law, and by His Body of Believers, there will be no respite. Americans are waiting for God to do it, but God has been waiting for the Church to judge its own! Here is a classic impasse. America and the Body of Christ the world over can wait until the cows come home, but it is us, who are to take the drastic action as did Phineas, and kill the spirit that is mocking God. The world has their own system of justice, but the Christians are helpless to deal with the deceivers. There has to be, and will be, a great and mighty confrontation. God will raise up Phineas-spirited believers, who will be unafraid to take the necessary action.

“Those who think that waiting is the answer will fall asleep like Rip Van Winkle and grow beards while the land is being covered with briars and thorns. Should they wake up later, they won’t have the tools to clear for themselves a way out of the overgrowth.

“Arise and be doing! Brothers and Sisters you have allowed injustice and lies through your portals. You are being robbed in the Name of God, spiritually raped and pillaged. What more must happen to you before you act?”

Ordination / Commissioning

Deborah Cain of Berea , Kentucky has been called by the Lord to sell all she had and then follow Him. Deborah is called to the nations, and so the Lord has sent her to me to travel with me, for a season, as Elisha traveled with Elijah. She has been traveling with me for the last few weeks now, and it has been delightful to have her with me. Deborah and I have worked together for a number of years in the Kentucky area, and I have always thanked God for her and her organizational skills. Deborah is a godly woman whom the Lord has so beautifully gifted, and she is completely sold out to Yeshua.

We will ordain / commission Deborah on Saturday, September 15^th at the Holiday Inn in Brunswick , Georgia . Please know that we do not take the ordination / commissioning of a brother or sister in the Lord lightly. We have heard clearly from the Lord that Deborah is to be set apart for His purposes, and He has asked us at Fair Havens Missions to endorse Deborah as a Minister of the Gospel of Yeshua the Messiah and commend her to the Church. We are well acquainted with the life and character of Deborah and are blessed to be a part of what the dear Lord is doing in her life as He closes one chapter of her life and opens another. I would like to ask you to pray for Deborah as you pray for me

“If you truly want to follow the Lord and carry a pure and truthful message, you will have to stand and walk in purity. You will have to obey Me when others do not understand! Come to Me now, and I will fill you with the Grace to be able to walk according to My Spirit, who lives within you, when even more treacherous times come.”

Hindu Leads California Senate in Prayer

The California Senate has been led in a prayer for help in being brought “from unreal to REAL” as a Hindu chaplain called for meditation on “the transcendental” and an illumination of the member’s minds. The entire Senate said they were honored to have him with them.

The prayer was delivered by Rajan Zed, who works at a Hindu Temple in Reno , Nevada . This is the same man who opened the US Senate in Washington , DC several weeks ago. He was invited to open the California Senate by Rev. Canon James D. Richardson, who is the chaplain for the Senate and also an Episcopal priest. I will not share the prayer because quite honestly I don’t care to write it out, for it is an absolute abomination! They have no idea as to what they have spiritually opened their minds to. Lord, in wrath, please be merciful! They truly know not what they do!

U.S. Co-Sponsors Islamic Convention

Our Justice Department is co-sponsoring a convention held by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). This move is raising concerns amonbg the Justice’s rank and file, and rightfully so. They are objecting because it will undermine the case against the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development in Dallas .

There is outrage among lawyers that the Department of Justice is funding a group that is named as a co-conspirator in a terrorist financing case. The sponsorship will involve sending government lawyers to man a booth for the Labor Day weekend event being held in Illinois . The Justice Department refused to say what the sponsorship was costing the American tax payers, however, the lawyers say it will cost us thousands of dollars.

Hamrick, Michigan

This city made news a couple of years back when the City Council gave the Muslim community permission to broadcast their call to prayer over loud speakers across the city five times a day. Now they have four Muslims seeking City Council posts. If all four are victorious, they will join one who is already holding a seat, and they will then have five of six seats on the City Council.

Robert Spencer had warned that the Muslims are emboldened in that city and will work to impose their Sharia Law on everyone else in the community, thus establishing a precedent for such expansion across the Unites States.

U.S. Under UN Law in Health Emergency

This past week President Bush was in Canada for the SPP of North America summit where a plan was released and finalized establishing UN law along with regulations by the World Trade Organization and World Health Organization as supreme over U.S. law and set the stage for militarizing the management of continental health emergencies.

Shortly before leaving for the summit in Canada , the President was presented with more than 171,008 petitions from the citizens of the US calling for full disclosure and Congressional accountability for the SPP agenda. There were also protesters at the time of the summit telling him that the citizens of America do not want a North American Community with our borders between Canada , the United States and Mexico wide open.

Our President responded by saying that he was “amused” at the reaction of the citizens of the U.S. and we can be sure that he is amused for he pulled that one over on the American people with no trouble at all, for the citizens were sleeping at the time the illegal agreement was made last year. Amd it is illegal! It is in direct opposition to our Constitution. A few of us were sounding the alarm but very few heard. So much for our sovereignty as a nation. It is no wonder that the Lord has said that America is fast becoming a Third World Nation.

See You at the Pole

Wednesday, September 26^th many of our young people and teachers will gather together around the flag pole at school and pray for their school, teachers, families and each other just as Jesus prayed that they would. Let us pray together with them and certainly for their protection.

Passing Out Gospel Tracts Becomes a Federal Case

Fredric Baumann, a 67 year old Georgia man was arrested for passing out Gospel tracts on a public sidewalk. A Federal Civil Rights Law Suit has been filed on behalf of this man who was actually jailed for two days and convicted without being given access to a lawyer. He was arrested on orders given by Police Chief Mike Eason. Let us pray!

Israel Defense Forces

Dozens of IDF soldiers who refused to evacuate fellow Jews from their home in Hebron were incarcerated for twenty-eight days and fined. They can no longer serve their country in combat.

The Israeli Government deployed two thousand troops to expel two Jewish families from their homes in their own God given land, and also to destroy their homes and Synagogue. Twenty-nine protesters were hurt during their protest. .

Meanwhile, there are 150 young men, all Jewish, who are leaving the United States to make Aliyah so they can serve in the IDF. Let us pray for those who stood on the convictions of their heart as well as those who are on their way to Israel .

Saudi Arabian Airlines

This airline has established a strict set of rules. Christians and Jews can not carry a Bible or a Prayer Book aboard or they will be confiscated. If they are wearing a cross or a Star of David, they, too, will be confiscated. All items and articles belonging to religions other than Islam are prohibited.

Convert or Else

The terrorist group Hamas is pressing the Christians in Gaza . They have been told to convert to Islam or else. They are in the process of establishing Sharia Law there. Also, Israeli Arabs in the Galilee are forming their own terror groups. One of these groups recently abducted an Israeli soldier in the Old City .

Ehud Barak & Condi Rice

Defense Minister Ehud Barak is trying to convince Condi Rice that Israel should not withdraw from the disputed territories for Israel has no peace partner on the Palestinian side. At the same time it looks as though PM Olmert has agreed to give them all of Judea , Samaria and divide Jerusalem .

Sudanese Refugees

Eleven of these families are in Tel Aviv and have begun to work. They are looking for permanent housing. One brother has stayed in Beer Sheva for the Lord is using him to minister to the Bedouins. Two other families have stayed in the same area for that is where they feel the Lord wants them to be. Please pray that all of these dear brothers and sisters find apartments at an affordable price. I want to thank those of you who have helped us to help them. We are grateful and so are they. Until next time, love in Yeshua, Myrna
