I rarely post someone else’s message, but I’m going to make an exception with this one. The following message is authored by the pastor at Rick Joyner’s Moravian Falls church in North Carolina. I’m posting it here, in my blog because I believe it’s for all of us. I’m not the only one who cries out for the church to be ready. Those who are listening, cry out in unison with the Spirit of God for the Church.
Please read this post and take it to heart. The time to get ready is NOW!
Love,
Jim

This past Sunday (Feb. 13th) at HIM in Fort Mill, Rick again encouraged the congregation to do what they could to have at least a 3 week up to 3 months supply of food on hand. In addition, and more urgently, we must have some idea on how to obtain drinkable water. Given the instability both nationally and internationally, Rick strongly believes that although we must not give in to a spirit of fear, it is wise and prudent to store food as an emergency back up.
We have also stressed this on a number of occasions and I again encourage each family to do whatever they feel is wise and out of their own obedience to the Lord. Remember Noah, being divinely warned of things that had not yet occurred, prepared and built the ark. As a result of Noah’s obedience, he and his household were saved. I also agree that fear has no place among believers, however, like Noah, it takes far more faith to be prepared than to do nothing.
Stored food does not have to be wasted but can be easily used and replaced on an ongoing basis. Regarding water, there are some simple solutions that we will be sharing with the congregation in the coming weeks.
On another note, we know it is easy to get out of the habit of attending church and we also don’t want attending our meetings to be just another religious tradition. However, there is a reason we are exhorted in Hebrews 10:25, when it states,“not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching. ” In other words, in the times we are living we should be drawing closer together and we should become more connected because we need each other! It was Noah and his ‘family’ who were saved. Yes, we attend corporate meetings to worship and hear the Word and share what God has done for us, but it is also to be connected with family! The Scriptures confirm that He sets the solitary in families. That is a lot of what church is all about. It is vital to be properly connected in the days that are to come.
These are incredible times to belong to the One who rules and reigns over all. It’s not a time to fear, but to rise up in faith. The greatest days to be a Christian living on the earth are in front of us.
If anyone needs some tips on how to begin storing food, please let us know.

Now, more than ever before, we need to pay attention to the prophets!
Do not hesitate – act now.
We have offered everything you need to survive in Times of Trouble for a reason.
THIS is the reason. NOW is the time.
You can combine canning, there are dvd’s out there that tell you
how. Order the 20 year shelf life, learn to dehydrate, it’s easy.
Get on heirloom seeds, 50 gallon drum purified with silver sol.
Last 4 years. Also the Seychelle pitcher and the Seychelle hand
pump; Worse case on water storage, leave large drum or clean garbage
can outside to catch rainwater. You place clean window screen as
filter over the top,,attach with clothes pins. The silver sol is great
in case of pandemic, it kills bacteria, virus and mold. Can be used
on pets. I tried this on a cat whose lip would not heal. It was
better in 2 days. Just rubbed it in for a couple days and put a few
drops in her water. Shop the buy one get one free items at the
grocery store. Focus on them and put some away. Large totes work well.
i’m afraid that theives will steal anything i stock
Today I joined the $50 a month food order. I desire to do so much more for my whole family to be taken care of. But this a start. I also committed a partner pledge monthly to just thank and support this wonderful, brave, informative man and ministery. I ordered the Heritage seed bucket for “Father’s Day” + bonus cloride bottle. Last week we ordered the 2 water pitcher + bonus, 2 filter + bonus, 2 thermos + bonus, and 2 straws + bonus. I feel some relief to have begun. As a believer and prayer warrior and tithe/giver, I can have faith that God will bring the necessary increase. My thanks and my prayers to you all! I pray blessings; power, love, and a sound mind!
Linda,
The hardest part of doing anything is getting started! Glad you did!

Bro Joyner said you had sources we could contact for stocking up food supplies. Can you tell us who/what/how to order food supplies to store for our neighborhood in Texas?
Allison,
You can stock up in our online store for the 20-year shelf-life food at http://www.jimbakkershow.com We also have the Seychelle water purification products you will need.

I find myself storing food, exercising on a rebounder, planting a garden with some heritage seeds, getting seyschelle filter products, ordering the Silver Sol and 9- Vitamins. This word is coming from all ministries of note, a sure-fire indication that it’s from God. BTW, this am my Dr said I was low on Vit D, so there you go, right on again!
I believe that we as christians should realize that relationships within the body of christ are vitally important. The word says that if we give, things(whatever our need is) will be given to us, pressed down shaken together and running over, shall MEN give to us. God uses people to give to other people. I have experienced that principle over and over. If you stayed closed off from other people, how can God use you? We need to be servants of God, to serve and prefer others above ourselves. We just need to love others and be more like Jesus! Amen?
