The Great and Terrible Day of the Lord Is Here: Standing Firm in the Midst of Shaking and Revival

The Great and Terrible Day of the Lord Is Here: Standing Firm in the Midst of Shaking and Revival

A time of celebration is upon us, even as we witness floods, fires, and shaking across the earth. I know you see the headlines and the chaos—CNN reports, the devastating floods in Texas—but let me remind you: God takes all things and works them for good. For over a year, He has been declaring through this ekklesia and this declaration church that the great and terrible day of the Lord is upon us. He is shaking everything that can be shaken so that only His unshakable kingdom remains.

Some of you will remember these words today, but tomorrow it may slip away. Your eyes are fixed on the here and now, but God says, “I am shaking it all.” The floods you see sweeping through Texas? They are cleansing waters. Yes, even when tragedy strikes Christian camps or communities, God uses it all for His glory and purposes.

God’s Timing and the Unexpected Ways He Moves

Just last night, I found myself in a hotel room where the only channel I could get was CNN. You know I don’t watch CNN—probably haven’t in six years unless forced by circumstance. But God’s sense of humor and timing is incredible. On CNN, Anderson Cooper was interviewing families who had lost loved ones in the Texas floods. Every single person interviewed was a Christian, praising God, declaring His goodness, and using the name of Jesus Christ boldly—even on the most communist news network on the planet.

Anderson Cooper’s eyes filled with genuine tears as he witnessed people in the midst of tragedy praising God. The kids on the rescue bus, having just seen their friends swept away, were singing hymns and proclaiming Jesus’ name. You can’t make this stuff up. God is already moving in the greatest revival this nation has ever seen. It’s not coming; it’s here.

New Seasons, New Instructions, and Critical Days

Yesterday’s message was about entering the secret place, tuning yourself to God’s frequency, and receiving new instructions for this new season. Every day is critical, and we must align our spirits with God’s tuning fork by shutting off the noise and distractions of the world. Though I wanted to come in with jubilation about the Fourth of July celebrations, God held me back until today because He wants us to see the floods and shaking as signs of the greater glory that is falling on this earth.

While driving here yesterday, a text came in from Deborah at Curt Landry Ministries, reminding us of the Genesis 12:3 blessing that is upon us as we bless Israel. This blessing flows back and forth, a divine cycle of cause and effect in God’s kingdom. At that very moment, Michaela and I were praying and praising God for the promises we believe are coming to pass—the restoration of what was lost, the greatest season for this church, and the fulfillment of God's promises through all of you.

Genesis 12:3 and the Flow of Blessing

The text said: “Your generosity is evoking the Genesis 12:3 blessing. As you bless Israel through your giving, Rabbi Kurt and Christie are praying over you with hearts full of gratitude.” This is not just about giving money; it’s about the spiritual flow of blessing that God orchestrates. The blessing flows through us, to Israel, and back again, enriching all involved. And I responded, thanking them for releasing this blessing at the exact time we needed it most.

The Shaking Is Here: A Great and Terrible Day

God has been warning us for over a year: “The shaking you’re watching now is nothing compared to what’s coming.” The great and terrible day of the Lord is here. He is shaking heavens and earth, but for those who love Him and are called according to His purposes, there is rest and protection. Psalm 91 promises that a thousand will fall at your side, ten thousand to your right, but it will not come near you. These are not empty words; they are promises to stand on in this shaking.

We are not to fear because God is our cover and shadow. His ways and thoughts are higher than ours, and He will do things we cannot imagine or predict. Quit trying to figure Him out. Instead, get on your face, tune yourself to Him, and He will show you things you could never figure out on your own.

The Spiritual Battle and the Victory of the Kingdom of Light

Recently, Michaela and I attended the dismantling tour in Nashville, where prophetic voices like Robin Bullock and Kent Christmas spoke about dismantling the kingdom of darkness and remantling the kingdom of light. The “great dismantling” has begun, tearing down strongholds of evil and preparing the way for revival and restoration.

On the Fourth of July in Nashville, we witnessed a spiritual war played out through a fireworks display unlike anything we’ve ever seen. Half a million people packed Broadway, and the fireworks were so intense that the concussive blows shook our legs and filled the sky with light as bright as daylight. This was not just a celebration—it was a declaration that the kingdom of light is overpowering the kingdom of darkness. Satan has lost, and the nation’s pride and joy are being restored after years of demoralization.

Prophetic Words Confirming the Times

The Lord spoke through Robin Bullock in 2021 about the “great dismantling” beginning, and the prophetic word aligns perfectly with what we’ve been hearing and seeing. The abyss trying to open in Manhattan was closed by prophets, and the false god of tyranny and communism is being dismantled. We are living in a prophetic time where God is moving mightily to restore His people and His land.

Standing Firm and Pressing In

As the shaking intensifies, and as floods, fires, and political upheaval continue, we must stand firm in our faith. The Lord says, “I did not save you to keep you sick, locked up, or defeated. I am releasing metamorphosis in the spirit, changing you from warriors to laborers, filling the house with joy.”

We are called to be active participants in this move of God. It’s time to come out from behind the curtains, open our mouths, and declare His glory. This is not a time for passivity or fear; it’s a time for boldness, praise, and expectancy.

Promises for the Righteous
“But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in his wings. You will go free, leaping for joy like calves let out to pasture. On that day, you will tread upon the wicked as if they were dust under your feet.” – Malachi 4:2, adapted

This is the promise for those who align themselves with God’s kingdom. The day of judgment is here, burning like a furnace, but it is great for the righteous and terrible for the wicked. We are called to rejoice and leap with joy, knowing that we have victory through Jesus Christ.

Seeking God and Receiving His Instructions

Isaiah 55 invites us to come thirsty and drink freely, to listen and find life. God promises that if we seek Him with open ears and hearts, we will receive the instructions we need for these days. This is a time to shut down the noise, press into the secret place, and tune ourselves to His frequency.

“My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord, “and my ways are higher than yours.” We cannot figure Him out from the ground level; we must rise up in spirit and trust His perfect plan.

The Role of the Church and the Prophetic Movement

This ministry, mantled in the Elijah anointing, has been called to reestablish altars, bring the word of the Lord, and activate the apostolic move. We are part of a greater army dismantling darkness and advancing the kingdom of light. The dismantling tour and prophetic gatherings are evidence that God is raising up laborers and sending the church into the nations.

We are witnessing the fulfillment of prophetic words spoken years ago, and it’s crucial that we stay engaged, obedient, and expectant. The greatest days of the Lord are here for America, Canada, Mexico, Israel, and the people of God worldwide.

A Call to Rejoice and Stand in Awe

In the midst of shaking, floods, and fires, let us not lose sight of the great and wonderful things God is doing. Even when it looks like chaos, the kingdom of light is advancing. We are called to rejoice in all things, to praise God continually, and to trust that His promises are true.

“A thousand will fall at your side, ten thousand to your right, but it will not come near you.” Stand firm on this promise and walk boldly through this season. Our second exodus is underway, and we are not waiting for it—we are in the midst of it now.

Remember, the Lord says to stop trying to figure things out from the ground. Get on your face, tune yourself to Him, and He will reveal the mysteries and instructions you need. This is the time to press in, seek God, and receive the fullness of His glory.

Final Encouragement and Blessing

We are living in an unprecedented time of shaking and revival. The great and terrible day of the Lord is here—great for those who love Him and terrible for those who oppose Him. The floodwaters and fires are part of God’s cleansing and refining process, turning hearts back to Him.

Stay focused, stay expectant, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus. The greatest days of glory are ahead, and you are an integral part of this move of God. Rejoice, praise, and stand firm in the promises of His word.
