1 Ch 12:32 Of the sons of Issachar, men who understood the times, with knowledge of what Israel should do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their kinsmen were at their command.

The sons of Issachar were intelligent men, who understood the signs of the times, well versed in political affairs, and knew what was proper to be done in all the exigencies of human life; and who now perceived that it was both the duty and political interest of Israel to advance David to the throne.Today we seek sons and daughters of Issachar, men and women who understand the times we are living in and know what is to be done in all the exigencies of human life to advance King Jesus to His throne.

There is a great shaking coming


There is a great shaking coming.  (August 2020)
[Hag 2:6 NKJV] "For thus says the LORD of hosts: 'Once more (it [is] a little while) I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land;
[Heb 12:26 NKJV] whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, "Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven."
[Heb 12:27 NKJV] Now this, "Yet once more," indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.
There is a word of the LORD for the nations today. It is found in the books of Haggai and Habakkuk.
From the prophet Habakkuk for our day:
O LORD, we are crying out. Will you not hear? There is violence, trouble, iniquity, strife, and contention everywhere. The law seems powerless, and justice never seems to go forth. The wicked are surrounding the righteous and perverse judgment is everywhere.
But the LORD says, “Look among the nations and watch. Be astounded! For I will work a work in your days which you would not believe, though it were told you. Indeed, I am raising up an enemy to possess places that are not theirs. They are terrible and dreadful; their judgment and their dignity proceed from themselves. They scoff at kings, and they deride every stronghold. They worship foreign gods.”
But LORD, are you not from everlasting, the Holy One? We shall not die. You have appointed them for judgment; you have marked them for correction. You cannot look on wickedness. Why do you look on those who deal treacherously, and hold your tongue when the wicked devours a person more righteous than he? Shall they continue to slay nations without pity?
Then the LORD said: “Write this vision for it is for an appointed time. Though it tarries, wait for it: because it will surely come, it will not tarry. The evil men transgress by drink and drugs. They are proud and enlarge their desire as hell. They are like death, and cannot be satisfied. They gather to themselves all nations and heap up for themselves all people. Will not the righteous rise up against them, and say, ‘Woe to him who increases what is not his? Will not your creditors rise up suddenly? Will they not awaken the oppress and you will become their booty?’
Because they have plundered many nations, the remnant of the righteous shall plunder them because of men’s blood and the violence in the land and the cities. Woe to those who covet evil gain. They sin against their souls. Woe to those who build a town with bloodshed, who establishes a city by iniquity! Behold, it is not of the LORD that these people labor in vain. For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, even as the waters cover the sea.
Woe to those who lead others into evil. They are filled with shame. The cup of the LORD’s right hand will be turned against them, and utter shame will be on their glory. Violence will cover them as judgment for their sins. Woe to them that worship evil and idols. But the LORD is in His holy temple. Let all the earth keep silence before Him.”
O LORD, we hear. Revive Your work in the midst of the years! In the midst of the years make it known: in wrath remember mercy. And God will come. His glory will cover the heavens, and the earth will be full of His praise. March through the land in indignation: trample the nations in anger. Go forth for the salvation of Your people, for salvation with Your Anointed. Strike the head of the house of the wicked and lay bare their foundations.
Yet we your people will rejoice in the LORD. We will joy in the God of our salvation. The LORD God is our strength; He will make our feet like deer’s feet, and He will make us walk on the high hills.
And from the prophet Haggai: 
This word comes at the beginning of the Days of Repentance, Teshuvah, 30 days before the Feast of Trumpets.
The LORD says to the Church, “Is it time for you to dwell in your paneled houses while the LORD’s house needs repair?” But the people say, “the time has not come, the time that the LORD’s house should be repaired”. Then the LORD says, “Consider your ways! You have sown much but bring in little; you eat and drink but do not have enough. You earn wages only to put into a bag with holes. Consider your ways! Repair my house that I may take pleasure in it and be glorified. You looked for much, but it came to little because you have neglected my house while dealing with your own interests and concerns. Therefore, the heaven above withholds blessings”.
Then the leaders of the Church, with all the remnant of the people, obeyed the voice of the LORD their God; and the people feared the presence of the LORD. Then the LORD says, “I am with you”. And the work began six days before the Feast of Trumpets.
On the last day of the Feast of Tabernacles, just before the Day of New beginnings, the Shemini Atzeres, the LORD says to the leaders of the Church and to all the people, “Now be strong and work for I am with you! My Spirit remains among you; do not fear! Once more in just a little while I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land; and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to Me, and I will fill my Tempe, my people, with glory”. The glory of this latter Temple shall be greater than the glory of all the previous temples. And in this place, I will give peace.”
On the first day of Hanukkah, the LORD says this; “Before you sowed much but reaped little. But from this day on I will bless you. But now I will shake heaven and earth. I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms; I will destroy the strength of the Gentile kingdoms, I will overthrow the chariots and those who ride in them; they shall all come down, every one by the sword of his brother. And in that day, I will take my Servant and make Him King of kings and Lord of lords.
[Job 34:20 NKJV] In a moment they die, in the middle of the night; The people are shaken and pass away; The mighty are taken away without a hand.
[Job 38:13 NKJV] That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, And the wicked be shaken out of it?
[Psa 18:7 NKJV] Then the earth shook and trembled; The foundations of the hills also quaked and were shaken, Because He was angry.
[Isa 2:19 NKJV] They shall go into the holes of the rocks, And into the caves of the earth, From the terror of the LORD And the glory of His majesty, When He arises to shake the earth mightily.
[Isa 13:13 NKJV] Therefore I will shake the heavens, And the earth will move out of her place, In the wrath of the LORD of hosts And in the day of His fierce anger.
[Isa 24:18 NKJV] And it shall be [That] he who flees from the noise of the fear Shall fall into the pit, And he who comes up from the midst of the pit Shall be caught in the snare; For the windows from on high are open, And the foundations of the earth are shaken.
[Isa 24:19 NKJV] The earth is violently broken, The earth is split open, The earth is shaken exceedingly.
[Mat 24:29 NKJV] "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
[Mar 13:25 NKJV] "the stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.
[Luk 21:26 NKJV] "men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
[Rev 6:13 NKJV] And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind.
But - [Psa 112:6 NKJV] Surely he will never be shaken; The righteous will be in everlasting remembrance.
[Rev 3:10 NKJV] "Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.
