Being a person that hears the Lord, I have to share what He is saying, now just what I think everyone wants to hear. With that said, I was awakened this morning between 4am and 6am to the sound of a whipping wind blowing so strongly it rattled the house. This is the sound that woke me up, but when I was waking up, I heard “A violent storm is coming, brace for impact.” Immediately the sense came to me, we are going to have to speak life to people when this storm passes for they are going to be shaken.

I went back to sleep and the phrase kept rolling around in my spirit, “A violent storm is coming, brace for impact.” I got up and came to my desk opened my bible and found the place where a violent storm is in scripture. It is in Mark 4:35-41. This is where Jesus said, Let us cross over to the other side, but a violent windstorm arose and waves broke into the boat, but Jesus was a sleep in the stern, so they woke Him us and said, don’t you care that we are perishing? The context of Mark 4 is interesting as well. Four things are mentioned before this storm in Mark 4. One, is the four soils on which the word falls; two is the verse that says “For nothing is hidden, except to be revealed; nor has anything been secret, but that it would come to light.” Third it speaks about the four stages of grain and the immediate harvest and fourth it is a parable about the kingdom of God starting small but becoming huge.

With the context mattering because it says in Mark 4:35, “On that day, when evening came, He said to them, Let us go over to the other side”, the storm happened on the same day Jesus spoke of the four things in Mark 4. So what is the violent storm that is coming of which we need to brace for impact? I am not 100% sure, but it could be an information storm of the like that is going to shock the world; it could be a financial storm; it could be a combination of storms, I am not privy to what the storm will be, but I know I heard, “A violent storm is coming, brace for impact.”

In Mark 4:37 the word violent means, natural events powerfully affecting the senses and storm means throwing everything topsy turvy. I am just sharing what I heard, I cannot add to it or take away from it and honestly I have no more information on it, but wanted to share it with you all. “A violent storm is coming, brace for impact.”
