Should We Heed Wilkerson's Warning?

> When I was a kid, I read about David Wilkerson who took to Gospel to the
gangs of New York. I even saw the movie "The Cross and the
Switchblade" that was made about him. Many know about that, but most
don't know what happened in his church just eight years ago.

> In the fall of 2001, Pastor David Wilkerson, of Times Square Church in New
York City, was warned by God that a calamity was coming. For six weeks they felt
an intense burden and enormous heaviness. A critical need for intercession was
so profound that Pastor Wilkerson canceled everything on the church calendar –
mission's conferences, youth events and every guest speaker.
>
> For six weeks, there wasn't a sermon. Instead, there was intercession
for our nation with weeping and repentance. They knew something was coming and
that something was bad. And that something was soon. So they prayed. And prayed
… and prayed.

> Then Wilkerson felt God telling him something that seemed rather bizarre.
He felt God telling him to make sandwiches – lots of sandwiches. What were
they for? Who would eat them? That part wasn't clear, but his church did
what they believed God was telling them anyway.
>
> And on the 10th of September they stayed up all night making hundreds and
hundreds of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. By morning they had about 2,000
sandwiches. At 8:46 a.m. the first plane hit the World Trade Center and Times
Square Church was ready to feed and minister to rescue workers and victims of
our nation's worst attack.
>
> Making sandwiches all night is a strange thing to do. If someone told me
to stay up all night making sandwiches, I'd probably tell them they were
crazy. But if David Wilkerson says he's heard something from God today, I
think we'd be crazy not to listen.
>
> He now says he feels the same thing he felt leading up to the attack by
radical Islam. In an "URGENT MESSAGE" dated March 7, 2009, Wilkerson
said:
>
> AN EARTH-SHATTERING CALAMITY IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. IT IS GOING TO BE SO
FRIGHTENING, WE ARE ALL GOING TO TREMBLE – EVEN THE GODLIEST AMONG US.
>
> For 10 years I have been warning about a thousand fires coming to New York
City. It will engulf the whole megaplex, including areas of New Jersey and
Connecticut. Major cities all across America will experience riots and blazing
fires – such as we saw in Watts, Los Angeles, years ago.
>
> There will be riots and fires in cities worldwide. There will be looting
– including Times Square, New York City. What we are experiencing now is not a
recession, not even a depression. We are under God's wrath. In Psalm 11 it
is written:
>
> … God is judging the raging sins of America and the nations. He is
destroying the secular foundations.
>
> The prophet Jeremiah pleaded with wicked Israel, "God is fashioning a
calamity against you and devising a plan against you. Oh, turn back each of you
from your evil way, and reform your ways and deeds. But they will say, It's
hopeless! For we are going to follow our own plans, and each of us will act
according to the stubbornness of his evil heart" (Jeremiah 18:11-12).
>
> In Psalm 11:6, David warns, "Upon the wicked he will rain snares
(coals of fire) … fire … burning wind … will be the portion of their
cup." Why? David answered, "Because the Lord is righteous" (v.
7). This is a righteous judgment – just as in the judgments of Sodom and in
Noah's generation.
>
> WHAT SHALL THE RIGHTEOUS DO? WHAT ABOUT GOD'S PEOPLE?
>
> First, I give you a practical word I received for my own direction. If
possible lay in store a 30-day supply of non-perishable food, toiletries and
other essentials. In major cities, grocery stores are emptied in an hour at the
sign of an impending disaster.
>
> … I will behold our Lord on his throne, with his eye of tender, loving
kindness watching over every step I take – trusting that he will deliver his
people even through floods, fires, calamities, tests, trials of all kinds.
>
> Note: I do not know when these things will come to pass, but I know it is
not far off. I have unburdened my soul to you. Do with the message as you
choose.
>
> Warren Buffett has said that our economy has "fallen off a
cliff." With the election of the most pro-abortion president (and Congress)
in history, there's no question that we deserve God's judgment.
>
> Just yesterday, Barack Obama signed an executive order to use children for
spare parts. So much for defending the "least of these," as he so
often quoted during his campaign. Cannibalizing the weak to help the strong. And
by the way, don't believe everything you hear in the news – Obama
didn't say he was against cloning. He said he was against
"reproductive" cloning. Killing a new life after cloning one is
another matter entirely: welcome to Obama's "Brave New World."
>
> The bottom line is that we are economically and morally bankrupt. And
it's reported that Iran now has all they need to build nukes.
>
> So, when the guy who made the 2,000 sandwiches on Sept. 10 warns us:
"AN EARTH-SHATTERING CALAMITY IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN," I think we would do
well to heed it. And follow the words Wilkerson quotes from the prophet Jeremiah
and "turn back each of you from your evil way, and reform your ways and
deeds."
