PRIDE AND SELF RIGHTEOUSNESS & DISCOURAGEMENT AND STRONG DELUSION
Last Day's Assignments Agains the Elect - Part 2 of 3
Dear friends,There is a burning on my heart that never ceases – when I see and hear of the casualties of the champions of God – who have fallen or been deceived – Although it is already written in the ‘Journal’ we have been led to prepare extracts from ‘LAST DAYS ASSIGNMENTS’ that we will post over the next few weeks – for all of you who are led to send the prophetic passages to friends, neighbours, men and women who you know to be desperately struggling in these areas.
Although one of the greatest struggles today is ‘Seduction, Lust and Jezebel’, there are other champions of the Lord who have been assigned with such weariness and are struggling with desperate discouragement.
My heart, but far more important than my heart – the Lord Jesus heart is breaking with grief to watch as many of his called out and anointed ones have become ensnared -–
Oh Please – dear friend -- if you know someone who is struggling -– send these Last Days Assignments to them – we have had so many reports of comfort and deliverance and repentance – that in the midst of their struggles that the Lords mercy was able to break through and to set them free - that is why these messages were written – so that the Lords people may go FREE –
In His great and marvelous love always

LAST DAY'S ASSIGNMENTS AGAINST THE ELECTfrom Journal of the Unknown Prophet
Continued from "The Falling Away"...
A great and terrible chill went through my body.
'Jesus,' I whispered. 'How can we survive such an onslaught?'
'The major endtime assaults are divided into several camps. They are all ruthless strategies of Jezebel, the ultimate seducer and the releaser of the endtime seducing spirits. The first major seduction of My children will be in the area of morality -- the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes, but seduction is not just confined to My children's morality. Satan's primary goal is to seduce My children away from the Father.'
'One of Satan's most lethal weapons against My ministers is another of Jezebel's strongholds -- the pride of life, pride and self-righteousness. Jezebel's third great onslaught will be in the area of discouragement. This is the same weapon used against My servant Elijah and indeed many of My servants throughout the ages. Great discouragement, in turn, leading to strong delusion and finally, that of The Great Blinding.'
Pride and Self Righteousness
'I have watched as some of My children have fallen morally. But My anger has stirred as I have seen some of My ministers -- those of My Own Household -- turn and in their closets, pat themselves on the back and say like the Pharisees: "Thank you Lord, I am not like they. I am glad I am not as they, for they are weak and surely I am strong and would never do such a thing that would make My Master ashamed." And I tell you, My child,'
And He was greatly pained.
'I tell you that I have seen My children -- these My ministers -- sit in their homes and at their church banquets, gossiping about these fallen ones. I have seen them expose their sin, expose their nakedness and say: This is a terrible damage to the Gospel -- as if in shock and as in horror - buy these have themselves fallen victim to the pride of life. And I am grieved with a great grieving.
'For indeed pride says that it is by my own hand and by my own sufficiency that I keep the law. And self-righteousness despises the weaker and encourages itself in its own strength to keep. But I tell you that in these coming days, all that is not rooted in dependence upon Me and My Father and upon My grace, shall fall.
And even as Satan fell, so I grieve for some of My called-out ones. For they lean on their own understanding, they lean on their own integrity, they lean on their own morality, they lean on their own proficiency and they pride themselves that they are not weak like other men.
But I tell you that even as Satan fell from beholding himself as greater, so many of these, My elect, shall fall from beholding themselves instead of beholding Me.
'And so when pride takes root in some of My servants, with it shall come a deadly self-righteousness and a critical, denigrating spirit as they compare themselves to others and they shall see the faults and the failings and the specks in their companions' and their colleagues' and their leaders' eyes and yet shall completely ignore the beam in their own. And the terrible coldness talked about in My Word shall grip their hearts and they shall now even realise that they have fallen away, for they shall be so sure of themselves and their boasting in Me.
You hypocrite, first get the beam of timber out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the tiny particle out of your brothers' eye.
Matthew 7:5, The Amplified Bible
'Tell My ministers to check their hearts, lest Satan seduce them away from their childlike trust and dependence on Me.'
Even in the generation that preceeded this present Church age, some of My greatest servants succumbed to discouragement and this led in turn to strong delusion. The enemy will do his utmoste at this time to discourage and impede and roadblock My purposes and My plans. And to those whose limbs grow too weary, whose hearts grow faint with weariness, he will start to cloud their vision.'
Jesus' tone was urgent.
'And visions that were birthed in power and in clarity and in the vigour of the Holy Spirit will seem to become clouded. Legions of satanic voices will be unleashed and the voice of the enemy will whisper doubt and confusion and unbelief to the weary soul. If seriously entertained, these satanic whisperings shall gain a foothold in the hearts and minds of some of My servants and they shall think to themselves:
I have sowed and there is no reaping.
There is no harvest.
I have laboured for nought, for the fruit is so little.
'So know My child, to warn My servants that when they hear these voices, to immediately discard them, not even to entertain such a train of thought, for it is a train of thought carefully strategised by the legions of the damned with intent to discourage and to delude even the elect. For these voices will question My faithfulness. These voices will question My Word. These voices have one intent, to seduce My children away from My Father.
'When Elijah ran from Jezebel in the wilderness, he had just slain all the prophets of Baal with the sword. He had seen My mighty hand of deliverance. But on receiving Jezebel's message, he ran for his life. And in these times, many of My servants who are mightily called and annointed by Me for the work in my endtime moves, have recieved a message from this same spirit of Jezebel that was at work against My prophet, Elijah. And that message is the same today as it was then:
So let the gods do to me, and more also if I make not your life as the life of one of them by tomorrow.
'And so My servants who have become weary of the battle and of standing against the darkness and warring in the high places of the Earth, have become afraid and arisen and have run for their lives and cried out to Me as Elijah did:'
"It is enough, now Oh Lord, take away my life."
Jesus sighed, but his sigh was not out of exasperation, but filled with deep concern and compassion.
'My Father and I have heard the cry of Our servants, My body have not understood the depth of discouragement which has gripped their souls.' He hesitated.
'I have watched from Heaven as some of My servants became weary in well-doing and because of the tremendous opposition and discouragements of the soul, they fell to discouragement, pride and eventually to strong delusions.'
I could feel the Lord's hurt. 'I have loved these men. They loved Me for many, many years with a pure heart, but they fell into Jezebel's snare and they were deceived.'
'Many of My servants today face the same pitfalls. Many have served Us day by day in the hidden places of service, unseen by man but known of Me. Many of them have poured out their lives and their substance for the sake of the Gospel and for My Kingdom, but they have seen little fruit. Some have done mighty exploits, some have faithfully served day by day. But many, so many, have become weary and are ready to faint.'
'For Jezebel has sent her message to them saying: I will make your life as one of them (slain by the sword tomorrow.) And so the Father of Lies has sown seeds of deception in My servants' souls -- questioniong their faithfulness, questioning My protection -- that My servants have began to doubt My very hand upon their lives. And they have become depressed and dismayed and lost their purpose that once was so clear, and like Elijah, they cry out:
And I only, I am left, and the enemy seeks my life to take it away.
'Many of these ones in the past years have given themselves to activity rather than to intimate fellowship with Me. It is essential that in this season that they take time out and draw aside to Me in intimacy in My presence so that they can find refreshing.
'This assignment is far more deadly to those who are called to do as Martha, than those who sit like Mary. Many of these have great administrative gifts, they are ably equipped to do, they are equipped to run ministries, equipped to run churches, equipped to run business. Others have become so caught up in the activity of ministering to others that they have been caught up in the activity of serving and have lost intimacy with Me and have become depleted.
'The more intensely discouraged that My servants become, the more they have leaned on natural carnal methods to change their circumstance and have become spiritually depleted. This discouragement in turn has kept them away from My face and My presence where they would find My supernatural encouragement, strength, fortitude and divine strategy to unlock their circumstances.
'Tell them they must draw unto Me. I am their lifegiver. I am their encourager. I am their anchor. I am their sustenance. That I would allure these My children to Myself and gently as My angel spoke to Elijah say: Child arise and eat. Draw aside and replenish yourself. Guard your minds and hearts from the father of all lies and deciever of your souls.'
