The
Meat Grinder Vision
I was in
worship and a vision appeared to me of something that resembled a meat grinder
with a funnel on top. I saw a man go into the top of the funnel and drop down
into the meat grinder, and it began grinding. I began to see small pieces of
hard substances to fly out of the grinder as it was grinding. I saw that the
man was going through terrible pain and adversity, and many difficult
situations while he was in the grinder. Then I heard the words, “Threshing
Floor.”
I saw
that none of the fluffy teachings the man had heard could withstand the
terrible pressure of the meat grinder, and they quickly flew away out the top.
As I watched, I was shown the people who were in the meat grinder were those
who had laid down the most for the Kingdom of God. When the grinder stopped,
the man dropped out of the chute at the bottom, but he looked different – he
was stronger, wearing very shiny armor, and he was smiling and really happy. I
then heard the word, “Equipped.”
Off to
the side, I could see others who had laid down less were also going through
things. I saw some being pounded by meat tenderizing mallets, some very hard,
and some not so hard. They would cry out as the mallet came down on them, but
the gentle hand wielding the mallet continued to pound. I knew in my spirit
when I saw this that things were being worked out of them by the pounding. I
felt strongly the Lord had something to say to us about what He was showing me,
and I began to pray that He would reveal it. This is what He said.
Yes, My
daughter, many of My children who have been called to My Kingdom work are now
on My threshing floor. I am separating from them all that does not please Me,
and making them meet for My use.
These are
those who have submitted themselves wholly to Me for My purposes, and great
shall be their reward, for the works they shall now do shall glorify My Son in
the earth.
A time of
great darkness approaches in the earth when no man shall know or understand all
that is occurring. Few will see My
purposes in what is to come, only My children who have walked with Me through
seasons of darkness will understand and know how to acclimate themselves in
that time. In that time, there shall be great turmoil, great need, and much
uncertainty. It shall be the darkest of times.
I shall give
My children who are walking close to Me eyes to see in the darkness. I shall
give them great and mighty revelations that they may survive what is to come. I
shall provide for them and protect hem and keep all that is theirs, that they
may tell others of My great faithfulness.
There is
nothing you need do, My children, to prepare or what is coming, for I am able
to provide all you need. Walk with Me. Seek My face daily. Do not neglect your
time with Me or be led astray by the distractions of the world, for the world
cannot save you from what is to come.
Go forth,
speak My Word. Tell others of your God who is mighty to save and deliver. Watch
and pray, for this time quickly approaches.
2 Tim 2:20-21 - 20 But in a great
house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of
earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 21 If a man therefore purge
himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for
the master's use, [and] prepared unto every good work.
Mark 16:15 - 15 And he said unto
them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Mark 13:33 - 33 Take ye heed,
watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.
Isa 55:6-7 - 6 Seek ye the LORD
while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man
his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon
him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
