Whenever I get a puzzle, the first thing I do is flip all the pieces over so I can see the side that has the image on it. Next I pull out all the border pieces, so I can establish the perimeter and then I start putting similar looking pieces together, so I can get a sense of what is going with what, and what may go where. The more pieces there are, the more time it takes, but it sure is a fun challenge and many people enjoy doing puzzles. The best part is, puzzles are an all ages activity.

The Lord has been putting puzzle pieces in front of me for a week now and they are thematic, but I am not clear what is going to happen, even though I do know the message being sent, which I will share with you. Let me give you the puzzle pieces.

For the whole summer my friend has been awoken in the middle of the night of many occasions to knocking on the door, smoke alarms beeping, alarms going off, things that have gotten her attention but she does not know what the Lord is saying to her, so she tells me and I have not gotten anything but the “sounds” she is hearing. Another friend, has been seeing 911 for months, over and over again in various places, yesterday he saw it again and his wife is asking what does this mean. Yet another friend as well is getting 911 and she said she believes it is national not personal. I have since Saturday been given some puzzle pieces as well.

On Saturday night the Lord said, “The enemy is at the gate, 2 Chronicles 20:20-21”. It says they went out to the wilderness of Tekoa. Then on Sunday morning, the Lord says, “Read Amos”. I open to Amos 1 and it says, “The words of Amos, who was from Tekoa.” Okay, what does Tekoa mean? Tekoa means trumpet blast. It references Jeremiah 6:1 “Now blow a trumpet in Tekoa”. Alarms, 911, trumpet blast and we are fast approaching the Feast of Trumpets. Puzzle pieces from various people unconnected sharing things with me and then the amplified voice prophets have all said “A shaking is coming!” What is God saying?

I believe the Lord is saying, “Brace for impact!” I do not know what is about to happen, but I know something is about to happen. A shaking of the likes that is setting off the warning alarms ahead of time is fast approaching. How’s do we prepare, I know the safest place to be is in the will of God. What does that look like? Obedience to the voice of God. What is coming, I don’t know, but what I do know is a storm is coming and Hebrews 12:26-28 shaking is going to happen and honesty we need it.
