Jim Bakker Show - 10 Reasons Why You Must Prepare - John Shorey on The Jim Bakker Show Aired: 2017-08-02 Duration: 07:43 === America's Decline Predicted (05:48) === [00:00:00] Will Rogers was somebody very loved in this country. [00:00:04] Very, yes. [00:00:05] John Shorey is our Will Rogers. [00:00:08] It's a smile. [00:00:09] Oh. [00:00:09] Yeah, I do too, I think. [00:00:11] And Will Rogers was the countryman, and John is from way out in the desert. [00:00:18] Yes. [00:00:19] But he's going to talk to you for a few minutes about 10 reasons why you must be prepared and how it connects to what is coming next. [00:00:30] So anyway, these 10 reasons why. [00:00:35] Number one, America must be diminished as a world superpower in order for prophecy to be fulfilled. [00:00:44] It says, I put in my notes here, the global powers and nations of the world are tired of being ordered around by the self-imposed global cop America. [00:00:54] I believe our enemies are waiting for the right moment to bring us down. [00:00:59] The right moment to bring us down reminds me of what David Wilkerson said. [00:01:04] The message I found in my pocket on the night of the first blood moon in 2014, I pulled that book out and I says, is this book contained the revelation of prophetic friends that God had a revelation for me? [00:01:19] And I flipped through the book and a dog-eared page says warning signs from God. [00:01:24] And three warnings in there that a coming economic collapse, something's going to cause that economic collapse. [00:01:34] And let me tell you, I believe we are close to that day. [00:01:39] Coming economic collapse, warning number one. [00:01:42] Warning number two, followed by destruction. [00:01:45] Personally, I think it's the grid going down by whatever means. [00:01:51] And then warning number three, when we are weak, our enemies will invade us. [00:01:59] Our enemies are looking for an opportunity to take America out. [00:02:06] Two, Iran will soon have new capability, and they said we're not afraid to use it. [00:02:14] We want to destroy, we want to fry Israel off the map. [00:02:19] They don't even care if it kills half their country as long as they can drive the Jews into the sea. [00:02:27] You add on to that, we don't just have to worry about Iran wanting to send off some nukes. [00:02:33] How many of you have been hearing about North Korea recently? [00:02:37] Let me tell you, that guy is crazy. [00:02:42] He's crazy, and I don't think, I think he's almost like a terrorist bomber that's willing to put a bomb on his body and go down in a blaze of glory. [00:02:59] Three, recent elections show that America will never see the recovery in happy days of the past. [00:03:07] Well, you know, I wrote this, originally wrote this after the election of 2012. [00:03:15] And with that president getting back in for a second term, it's like, you think happy days are going to come back? [00:03:22] Think again. [00:03:23] Well, now we have a reprieve. [00:03:26] I believe we got a way better man in the White House. [00:03:29] And we've been saved from, you know what, but we still have the biggest national debt you could ever imagine. [00:03:41] We got huge bubbles in our economy. [00:03:44] And we've got enemies of good that would just as soon destroy this country than to have it in the hands of the righteous. [00:03:57] Number four was, I said recent elections. [00:04:00] Number four, America's on course to see a crash of our economy. [00:04:05] I basically covered that already. [00:04:07] Number five, events in Syria are pointing to the Psalms 83 war. [00:04:11] Well, you know, I wrote this three or four years ago. [00:04:15] Has things calmed down in Syria? [00:04:18] No. [00:04:20] In fact, Syria is as close to war as you could get because Russia is entrenched in Syria. [00:04:28] Russia keeps warning America, quit bombing Syria. [00:04:34] It's an independent, sovereign country, and they're our allies, and we have our men over here, and you better quit doing what you're doing. [00:04:43] And have we quit? [00:04:45] No. [00:04:46] We literally have crossed the line that Putin drew in the sand concerning America touching Syria. [00:04:56] At some point, Putin, to save face, has to retaliate against America. [00:05:04] I think the only reason it hasn't happened is because Putin is preparing for war. [00:05:13] And when he's got all of his ducks in a row, you're going to wake up some morning and you're going to find out that bombs are going off in the Middle East. [00:05:23] Or you're going to wake up some morning and find out that nuclear bombs have gone off in Asia. [00:05:31] When the day comes that a nuclear bomb goes off in Asia or goes off in the Middle East or full-blown war happens in the Middle East, full-blown war happens in Asia, let me tell you what. === Prepare for Panic (02:10) === [00:05:44] Economies will collapse, just like David Wilkerson said. [00:05:49] David Wilkerson said the economy will spin out of control, that there'll be the senators, congressmen, they'll have no answer, no way to stop it. [00:05:58] And panic on Wall Street, panic on Main Street, panic on your street. [00:06:08] That's why we need to prepare. [00:06:11] Don't wait for the panic to set in. [00:06:15] Number six, political and natural events are evidence that the sign of the Lord's coming is here. [00:06:24] In the last week, there have been large earthquake swarms all over the world. [00:06:31] They're literally saying, it's literally, they had, these are all reasons why we must prepare. [00:06:38] Don't sit on your laurels. [00:06:40] Don't use this reprieve to go and just do your own thing. [00:06:44] We need to be about our father's business. [00:06:48] Seven, many prophetic voices are giving warnings that we are in the window of the Lord's return. [00:06:56] Number eight, I care for my family and want to provide for their safety. [00:07:04] The Bible says, in holy fear, God gave Noah a divine warning and in holy fear, he built an ark for the saving of his family. [00:07:16] And you know, his mission was a lot bigger than just his family. [00:07:19] He saved all the animals of the world. [00:07:23] Number nine, I want to be in a position to minister to the needs of my friends, family, and neighbors for the last harvest. [00:07:34] You can't have, you can't be positioned to help people for the harvest if you're not in a position to even help just your family.
