Special Report - Remember St. Francis of Assisi

Updated: Nov 11

Correction is Coming! How can you avoid it?

Feast of trumpets and Saint Francis

God sent a prophecy in 2021 warning to His church about a coming correction. He said a sign would come true the next month and it did! This prophecy centered on Saint Francis of Assisi. The Lord pointed out the significance of the feast of Saint Francis falling on the second day of trumpets, which we will discover as we look at what this prophecy proclaimed.


One day in prayer, the Lord spoke clearly:


  1. “You need to turn your back on churches under the influence of Jezebel”

  2. “The waves south of San Francisco will break over the barriers.”


When the waves break over those barriers, it is a confirming sign.


I sought the Lord and asked, “Why San Francisco?” San means Saint, and the name Francisco means Francis. The city was named after Saint Francis. The outcome of his life will show not only the correction Jesus is bringing to the church, but the consequences.


Jesus appeared to Francis of Assisi in the 13th century and said, “Francis, Francis, go and repair My house which, as you can see, is falling into ruins.” He thought this meant he needed to repair the church where he was praying because of the dilapidated condition. Enthusiastic about the commission, Francis sold cloth from his father’s store and gave the money to the priest. The priest refused to accept the “ill-gotten gains.”


  • Most churches today are making the same mistake as Francis.

    • They heard the call of God but are selling what belongs to their Heavenly Father to do the work He has called them to do!


Learning of the theft, Francis’ father began proceeding to remove the inheritance. In the middle of the proceedings, Francis renounced the inheritance; the rest of his life was spent in different stages of poverty. He embraced poverty, establishing the Franciscan Order which has a vow of poverty.


  • Many will continue in their mistake instead of turning from the sin like Francis did.

    • If they still refuse to turn from their sin, they are in danger of losing their inheritance


Our Heavenly Father is tired of us selling what belongs to Him. Churches have been operating according to the ways of the world and now God is sending a correction. Is turning your back on those selling what belongs to God scriptural?

But now I write to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of [Christian] brother if he is known to be guilty of immorality or greed, or is an idolater [whose soul is devoted to any object that usurps the place of God], or is a person with a foul tongue [railing, abusing, reviling, slandering], or is a drunkard or a swindler or a robber. [No] you must not so much as eat with such a person. (1 Corinthians 5:11 AMPC)

The Greek word pleonektēs (pleh-on-ek'-tace) is translated as greed but means greed for gain. Greed is a focus on receiving. Those focused on what they are to receive will charge in advance for what they give, even though it comes from God. We can and should turn our back on them once we give them a chance to repent by giving them scripture to show where they have gone wrong.


The waves breaking over the barriers south of San Francisco confirmed that a spirit that is not from God has infiltrated churches by selling what belongs to God. He expects us to turn our backs on churches that are selling what rightfully belongs to Him unless we want to be caught in the judgment coming from Heaven.


Freely Give Instructions

Cure the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, drive out demons. Freely (without pay) you have received, freely (without charge) give. Take no gold nor silver nor [even] copper money in your purses (belts); And do not take a provision bag or a wallet for a collection bag for your journey, nor two undergarments, nor sandals, nor a staff; for the workman deserves his support (his living, his food). (Matthew 10:8-10 AMPC)

God’s way is to freely give whatever you have received from Him, then when the recipient receives something from God, they can give back to acknowledge Him. This keeps the focus on our Father. It also allows for the sowing a reaping principle to have full effect:

Let him who receives instruction in the Word [of God] share all good things with his teacher [contributing to his support]. Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned, disdained, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions, or by His precepts being set aside.) For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap. For he who sows to his own flesh (lower nature, sensuality) will from the flesh reap decay and ruin and destruction, but he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. (Galatians 6:6-8 AMPC)
If we have sown [the seed of] spiritual good among you, [is it too] much if we reap from your material benefits? (1 Corinthians 9:11 AMPC)

The principle of sowing and reaping applies to learning and those you teach you about God. If you receive something of spiritual value, you give back to acknowledge that you have received from God and what you have received will grow. If you don’t receive anything of spiritual value, then you don’t give. When a church, pastor, or teacher charges for the things of God, they are saying:


  • I am NOT trusting that others will hear from God and give back to acknowledge Him.

  • I am NOT sure God will provide for my needs, so I am making sure my costs are covered.

  • I am NOT willing to operate in God’s ways and freely give what I have received from God.


Whether you receive wisdom from God through discipleship, a teaching, a prayer, or anointed worship, what God has freely given to His children should never “cost” money. We should never “buy” the things of God. The church has been on a downward spiral for many years because we are selling what should not be sold. It began in small ways as we became focused on recovering the money we had invested into products by charging for:


  • “Anointed” oil

  • Prayer cloths

  • Messages and teachings (in books, videos, or seats in meetings)

  • Worship music


If Christian leaders truly trusted that God had told them to make anointing oil, distribute prayer cloths or create books, they would have done as He has instructed in His Word by giving them away for free. It cost Paul to send out the letters that make up the New Testament, but he did not charge for them. If God tells us to produce books or other items, you must trust that He will supply the money for that production.


There is a necessity to educate the body of Christ so that Christians can realize that once they receive from God through prophets, preachers, or teachers, they should give back to acknowledge Him. Can you see how this gives more glory to God and less to man? People will give to acknowledge they have received from Him! Unfortunately, most of the church has come so far down the wrong path that they have now begun charging for the most basic necessities: prayer.


The Word tells us that Satan pushed David into “counting” the men of Israel to see how great his army was so he could be reassured of Israel’s strength. This was God’s response:

So Gad came to David and told him and said, “Shall seven years of famine come to your land? Or will you flee three months before your pursuing enemies? Or do you prefer three days of pestilence in your land?” (2 Samuel 24:13 AKJV)

Because David counted on his own strength instead of relying on God’s strength, disaster struck Israel. When we require a “donation” or a “seed” for a product, it is the same as charging. We are “counting on” and trying to stimulate people instead of releasing what God has given us and trusting in Him. Our focus is wrong because we want to make sure we recoup our costs. However, if God really told us to do it, we should have faith that He will provide. God will show up and those who receive will give back in response to finding Him.

Know you not, that to whom you yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants you are to whom you obey; whether of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness? (Romans 6:16 AKJV)

Satan was behind David’s action of counting the men of Israel and he is behind charging for the things of God. There has been grace for a while, but when we fail to turn from our wrong actions, then Satan’s influence becomes stronger. This is what has happened in the church and why Jezebel has been able to take control of worship! Yes, anointed worship and lyrics are also from God.

“Brothers, I may say to you with confidence about the patriarch David that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day. Being therefore a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that he would set one of his descendants on his throne… (Acts 2:29-30 ESV)

One of the definitions of a prophet is poet because poets were believed to sing under divine inspiration. This means if we receive poetic lyrics, they are coming from Heaven, from God. ANYTHING we have received from God or that which we expect to be anointed by Him should be freely given. If we expect God to be there, it must be FREE. It costs to produce music, just like books and meetings have an upfront cost. If you are sure God is calling you to create and distribute worship music, it needs to be done according to His ways.


Our time is up. God is saying the consequences are right on the horizon. A wave breaking over the barriers is the sign to look for because Jezebel has entered the church through worship!


Jezebel and Worship

When I received the revelation from God that books with messages from Him had to be free, I was asked if this applied to music. All I could say was “I haven’t heard anything about worship, but if you expect it to be anointed by Him, it must be free.” Now the Lord has given a definite answer.

But seek not [the golden calf at] Bethel nor enter into [idolatrous] Gilgal, and pass not over to [the idols of] Beersheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity and exile, and Bethel [house of God] shall become Beth-aven [house of vanity, emptiness, falsity, and futility] and come to nothing. (Amos 5:5 AMPC)

Bethel made a golden calf for people to worship because they had separated from Israel. They intended to worship God, but it wasn’t in the way He told them to do it. They did this with what would seem to be very reasonable intentions.


  • They wanted to remain separate and in control of their people.

  • God required His people to worship at His temple where the Ark was in Jerusalem.

    • The leaders wanted to keep people from going to worship at the temple and being influenced by another leader.


As Christians, we should trust that we are all one family in God and He is in control and will bring us what we need.


  • It began with copyrights on songs.

    • Who are we to claim ownership and control over the words brought to us by the Holy Spirit?

  • This enabled us to sell “worship CDs” because they are “anointed.”

    • Why is someone’s worship anointed, is it their talent or is it God’s Spirit flowing through them that makes it good?

    • Are we not seeking to buy and sell the free gifts of God, His anointing?


The worship industry has now gone the way of the world. Contracts are being used to claim rights to worship singers and groups so that they can be added to their “labels.” Entities in the worship industry retain rights over the music which cannot be used unless you pay a licensing fee. If you are in a church where a copyrighted song is sung, they should be paying for that! How is this God’s way? What happened to freely you have received, freely give?


The Levites had a praise team who were supported in their living by the temple. (1 Chronicles 16:4) Worship teams and leaders should receive an income from the church where they are ministering so they can be devoted to God’s work. Their music should be freely given and we should give back if we receive from God through their music. Just like David, who had counted the men in Israel, lack of trust in God has caused worship to be commercialized for profit.


The most controlling spirit is Jezebel. God has said to turn your back on Jezebel who seeks to control and profit from worship. When the waves break over the barriers south of San Francisco, it is a sign from Him: step away from all churches that are trying to control His anointing and His flow through worship!


True Worship

The mishandling of worship is creating an attitude that is distorting what worship is all about!

A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth evil things. (Matthew 12:35 AKJV)

Worship connects our heart with God. Those who are leading an audience to worship must guard their hearts so there is nothing else influencing them. Their focus should be on God and God alone. Mammon may come in when money is involved. The popularity of a song can influence our income, it can lead us to focus on what people want to hear instead of singing from our heart to God. We need to get back to the basic truth of praising God:

And you shall seek me, and find me when you shall search for me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13 AKJV)
But if from there you shall seek the LORD your God, you shall find Him, if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul. (Deuteronomy 4:29 AKJV)

Worshiping God involves seeking and focusing on Him because of His goodness. It isn’t about the music or the singer, it is about our hearts! Also, it isn’t about getting to the Secret Place or receiving a miracle, healing, or provision, it is about honoring the One who sent His Son: it is about glorifying Jesus. All of these things happen in His presence but seek Him, not the blessings He brings.


The Lord has said that this first correction will be gentle, and it was. He said there would be little to no loss of life and this happened. However, should we not turn back to His ways, the signs which follow will be increasingly severe. Remember the warning God has given us:

I then heard another voice from Heaven saying, Come out from her, my people, so that you may not share in her sins, neither participate in her plagues. (Revelation 18:4 AMPC)

In the future, He said to be ready to flee when God sends a warning of impending judgment. Today is that warning!

It was because you, the Levites, did not bring it up the first time that the Lord our God broke out in anger against us. We did not inquire of him about how to do it in the prescribed way. (1 Chronicles 15:13 NIV)

Israel’s desire was to have the Ark of the Covenant in Jerusalem so they could worship God. However, when they went to retrieve it, they placed it on a cart instead of having the Levites carry it on poles. They didn’t worship Him in the way He had shown them and because of that, one man died as the Lord “broke out” against them. God is getting ready to break out against His church once more.


Jan 5, 2023

“A massive wave crashed over the barrier in Pacifica, just south of San Francisco, sending terrified pedestrians scrambling from the swell of water, a live stream of the beach showed.”

Los Angeles Times

The correction of the Body has begun!


  • Leaders are being accused of sexual misconduct

  • Their health is under attack


Every Christian leader I know has been suffering from a physical attack. If they find the root cause and confess, repent, and plead the blood, the attack is healed. Some seek help from doctors and are healed without repenting. The same week I received this message from the Lord a dream was sent into the ministry:


A woman was at Brandon's house (a stepbrother) and there was a field. Fireballs started raining down in the distance. They started slow and then intensified. They started coming closer. People were running up a hill towards the fireballs!


Interpretation

  • Brandon - gorse hill - Gorse: Evergreen shrub, having spiny leaves and yellow flowers.

    • Yellow - Intellect

    • Flowers - Love of God

  • Fireballs - corrections from God


God is correcting the body of Christ, beginning with leaders. It started slowly, and there will be a brief respite, but it will intensify. Gorse hill shows that Some teachings are based on intellect and God’s love, but there is more that God expects of us. (Loving God teachings) Unfortunately, many leaders are running back to the reason they are receiving correction!


Season of “Pruning”

Every branch in me that bears not fruit he takes away: and every branch that bears fruit, he purges it, that it may bring forth more fruit. (John 15:2 AKJV)

Since 2023, we have been in a season of “pruning.” Minor difficulties have come upon the body of Christ. It is God’s way of getting our attention so that we clean out sin.

But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap; He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and He will purify the priests, the sons of Levi, and refine them like gold and silver, that they may offer to the Lord offerings in righteousness. (Malachi 3:2-3 AMPC)

The Lord is refining His church. Those who refuse to walk in His ways will now be experiencing the fire of correction.


Feast of Saint Francis

The holiday celebrating Francis’ tragic misunderstanding has landed on the second day of the Feast of Trumpets. This marks the beginning of the second “reign of fireballs” from the dream. Those returning or remaining in their sin will find a harsher affliction upon them.


How will this affect members of churches who are robbing God? Please look for the class Attacks on Finances for more information. (For information on the God’s Way Prophecy and how it was fulfilled, CLICK HERE)
