“A Word Unto This Nation. 

“Stand thou by My side this morning, those of you who have been called of God and anointed by His Holy Spirit.  Stand thou by the side of Him Who is Almighty, the Lord God of Hosts is His Name, and there is none greater, there is no one more powerful than He. 

“For I desire that you stand this morning before the nation that you represent for My word is unto this nation, this nation — unto the nation that you are residents in and citizens of.  For behold thou by the natural eye, it is a land that is fair and lovely: it is a land with external blessings and providences and mercies bestowed bountifully from the hand of an ever–loving God.  For truly there is no measure that can be employed to express the expression of divine providence.  But look this morning by the eyes of the Holy Spirit, and look through the revelation of your God. 

“It is a nation that is like unto a howling wilderness: for there–is deep darkness: there are caverns of carnality: there are pits of iniquity, and the life of humanity has become so polluted that although hidden by the fairness of the isles, it arises to My nostrils as that which is nauseating. 

“For I have planted saith the Lord your God; I have caused sunshine and rain to fall and out of the abundance of My goodness have I provided for all.  I have sent My servants and given to them the anointed word of authority and expression of revelation for the days in which you live but by utter and complete rejection of that which I have given and bestowed by many vessels and divine manifestations, the very isle of fairness and beauty and picturesque expression has become, in My sight as a howling wilderness. 

    58     

“But I will yet have mercy upon it.  In judgement will I still remember mercy.  In My wrath will I still declare My grace, but know this of a surety this day, that I will visit this nation with My judgement and I will cause her to know that in despising the revelation of providence and the glories of redemption she has made herself ripe to receive the expression of divine indignation. 

“Nevertheless do I stand this morning at the very top of the valley and I will send My word throughout the land.  I will cause My word prophetical, I will cause My word anointed, I will cause My Word creative, to run right through the valley, and some will hear, and you will hear a shaking, A SHAKING, YEA  A SHAKING. 

“For what if I declare to you prophetically this morning that in the manifestation of My judgement I will shake this nation geographically. 

“I will shake it because of rejection, because of the despising, because of laying aside of the anointed word and revelation of Mine eternal Headship. 

“But alongside that, I will remember the true principles of love and mercy and grace and I will shake the lives of others to see in the darkness of the valley, the King in all His beauty. 

“For it is to be a time of shaking, My people, a time of shaking.  I am going to allow the manifestation of My Spirit to be so operative in the days to come that there will be a shaking within the house of God. 

“For what this morning, if the posts of the tabernacle, the temple, should move because of the glory of God?  

“There is a long way yet for you to ascend, for you have not yet learned the new song, neither have you been captured by the Spirit of song, knowing how to ascend in the scale of true rapture until the essence of divine moving in the midst is captured whereby you can move from the comprehension of natural senses into the realm of divinely manifested realities and there see the moving of the posts of your God in His temple. 

“For there must of necessity be a shaking of judgement that there may be a final unity of My people. 

    59     

“For I will shake without, and I will shake within, but blessed are they who are shaken. 

“Many things that have claimed a part of your life and have become corroded along the manner and walk of your life, must be shaken off. 

“There are things that demand the Blood; there are things that demand the Fire; there are things that demand the Purging, but their are things that can only be dealt with by a definite experience and manifestation of shaking and I WILL SHAKE, that certain things maybe taken from you, that I may be in the midst of you as My people, the all glorious Lord. 

“For I am the Lord your God.  There is none other beside Me, and even in the howling wilderness I discovered you, and brought you by ways that were complicated and confusing as far as you were concerned, but I brought you to Myself. 

“I will still bring you to Myself.  I will yet bring you to Myself, but the work I do this day is special, and must be speedy to bring you, and all of you, to Myself 

“I will shake orthodoxy from the top of the islands to the bottom and I will shake out the salt of the earth that I may gather to Myself.  I will shake all the fellowships that have entered into the blessing of My Spirit from top to bottom of the islands, for many things must be shaken out. 

“Know too that I will walk in Majesty; I will walk this morning in dominion; I will walk in absolute authority.   

“And I will gather unto Myself all that are born of My Spirit, and I will gather those who are immersed into the Mystery of My Spirit, and gather to Myself a people that will be gloriously one. 

“For the shaking without shall become so terrifying that you will be glad to keep yourselves in the shaking within. 

“O My people, this morning, this morning, this morning, because you have not hearkened to My word in years past, I am now going to shake you; because you have refused to apply the principles then operating, I will shake you. 

    60     

“So stand with Me  at the head of the valley this day, and hearken now to the voice of God.  For I have in Mystery allowed My voice to run through the valley, and I am going to follow that word by My Spirit and you will behold you will hear, you will see. 

“For this word that I speak to you this morning is not a word to you as a distinctive society of people.  It is not a word to you that believe unto a certain name.   

“This is a word unto the nation: this is a word unto all My people: this is a word unto every denomination. 

“It is a word whereby because of the end and closing of the dispensation, it demands rapid haste and development. 

“Look thou into the valley and behold; look thou into the valley and hear; look thou into the valley and see — darkness, death, depravity. 

“But let your hearts draw nigh unto Me; allow My Spirit to overshadow you; allow your lives to be held by My powerful hand, and you will prove that none of you shall escape the shaking, but in shaking you I will hold you as well in the security of My grip and a gathering there will truly be. 

“For the anointed word of the Lord will run and free course; for the anointed word of the Lord will go to the ends of the island[s]; the anointed word will destroy and save, will scatter and will reveal, and ultimately your eyes will behold One Shepherd, one fold, one security, one eternal unfolding of purpose, of plan, of manifestation, and then you will find the secret satisfaction that you crave after. 

“No man this morning can handle this word I have spoken, for it is not a word like unto the words you are accustomed to. 

“It is not a word that will bring to you the ordinary manifestation and ministries of edification and comfort but it is the prediction of what I am and am going to do and take up all people, and how I will deal, saith the Lord your God.” 

Can you even start to imagine what such a  physical ‘shaking’ would represent to New Zealand?  The devastation, the difficulties for people?
