Regarding David Wilkerson's Recent Prophecy

“Now brethren, concerning the coming of Adoneynu Yeshua Mashiach (our Lord Jesus, Messiah) ... we ask you not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter ...” - 2 Thess. 2:1-2

Some may have found themselves frightened or unsettled by David Wilkerson’s recent prophecy. Some may have scoffed at it. Others have moved into panic mode.

We are certainly entering difficult times (2 Tim.3:1) nationally & globally. While I have not yet run to Walmart, I believe the time is short (I Cor.7:20) and we need to stay close to the Lord in His will - hearing His voice.

Being moved out of complacency and recognizing the importance of redeeming the time is always good (Eph.5:16), but let us remember that the wisdom from above is first pure, peaceable, and gentle (Js.3:17).

So don't strive - or panic. Let the Lord be your fear (controlling focus and influence) - not anything else - and He will be your Sanctuary (Is.8:13).
