Pray it will not be winter

Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise the words of prophets, but test everything; hold fast to what is good; abstain from every form of evil.
1 Thessalonians 5:19-22

This is just a short post today because I feel like I received a warning. I was pondering the world, and how Maria Esperanza said of Venezuela, “it will start here“. Knowing that Venezuela has been in the news of late I decided to pray.

I have told you that God has been relatively silent for awhile, but this day was different. I was praying a Rosary and I received a word in prayer. 

“Pray it will not be winter.”

That was it. That was all that was said to me in my prayer. I recognized it from scripture.

The whole passage states;

So when you see the desolating sacrilege, spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),  then those in Judea must flee to the mountains;  the one on the housetop must not go down to take things from the house; the one in the field must not turn back to get a coat. Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing infants in those days!  Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath.  For at that time there will be great suffering, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be.  And if those days had not been cut short, no one would be saved, but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.  Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look! Here is the Messiah!’ or ‘There he is!’—do not believe it. For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and produce great signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.  Take note, I have told you beforehand. So, if they say to you, ‘Look! He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. If they say, ‘Look! He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it.  For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Wherever the corpse is, there the eagles will gather.
Matthew 24:15-28

I don’t really know exactly what all this means, except I feel we must do as Jesus commanded in scripture. And I felt it important enough to tell you.

I am not an eschatologist, nor do I proport to know timelines of events. I only know what I heard in prayer and that it matches something in scripture that Jesus told us to do. So for me, I will pray that our flight may not be in winter or on a sabbath. Prayer changes things.
