A Clarion Call

A Clarion Call:


For some time now my heart has been burden as a minister, solider, fellow servant of Jesus Christ concerning the state of our nation. A Clarion call goes out for those in the Body of Christ to make a "Stand" this year without apology or compromise and it needs to be done now. Political correctness has brought us into a path of destruction and needs to be placed back into Hell from where it came in certain areas of life, including the pulpits of America for it has killed a once effective bumper that lead people to repentance.

Because of the cross road we are at, the five-fold ministry needs to be reexamined in the light of scriptures and a call needs to go forth to a lost a dying world that there is still Hope to come to Jesus before it’s too late.

Old Fashion worship has been replaced by the things that make people comfortable with their own lifestyles in the Church that glorifies flesh and not God. The music of today cannot be distinguished from the common hard rock, bar joints and head banging bunch.

Dancing came in but not by the Spirit, choreographed until now it is erotic worship and many are ok with that calling it “the arts”.

Sin and Hell should be preached from God’s house to the White house but where are the voices? The Church needs to become the Church again in America, even if this is our last run.

Grace has been preached in a perverted way until its being taught that you do not have to "repent" of your present sins, you repented once when you were saved and that is enough.

Love has been taught in a way until the minds of people believe you cannot speak against sins and if you do, you don't "love" people.

Many fail to understand that love is corrective. Judgment begins in the pulpits of America. You can love the sinner but real love is to tell them the truth. Speak the word in love they say but true Love will keep you out of Hell when you know right from wrong.

Many main line denominations are falling into a compromise position; and the people have lost their way.

Judges 17:6
"In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes."

From the Methodist, Lutherans, Churches of Christ, now among the Pentecostals, compromise has hit and the compass of direction has now become the compass of compromise. Now, they do that which is right in “their” eyes but not in God’s! The “church” has become progressive in their “revelation” as they call it and we are on a new journey into the unknown.

Provocative dress does not prick the conscience of people who claim to walk before a Holy God and modesty is laughed at as out dated, old fashion, legalistic as sages of days gone did not understand and have interpreted the scriptures incorrectly.

Yet, in nations where women walk naked and men regard not their bodies when walking into a Spirit filled service, you begin to see the women cover their breast and men realize they are before a Holy God and cover their private parts not because of what was said but what was felt.

The truth of God’s Word has fallen in the streets of America (Isa. 59:14). The once hearing ear has now become silent by ministers like Kenneth Copland, Joseph Prince, Rick Warren until the ministry has become a laughing stock among the people. Ministers who once stood against the ills and vices of men now have become silent to the cries of those who say they cannot find their way to God but have now made a bed of ease in their search. The uncomfortable has become comfortable.

A famine has now hit America. There is no fear of God in His house; rebellion is in the hearts against the ministry because of those who have perverted the real truth about giving to real men and women of God. We have been on a slide downward for many years but the real blame goes upon the ministry.

Yes, truth has now fallen in the streets as millions now trample upon it as if God’s Word is just a novel placed upon the selves of millions of home while dust ages it by never reading it again.

We are more concerned about the ages of rocks, instead of the Rock of Ages. Aborted babies are cast aside and innocent blood runs in the streets of America and the world. Flowers, frogs, fish, falcon, fox and flamingo’s have more rights than a fetus.
2 Chronicles 15:3

"Now for a long season Israel hath been without the TRUE God, and without a TEACHING priest, and without LAW."

Where are the “teaching” men and women of God who will stand up and minister the Word (law) of the Lord? Soon, we will be without a “true God” because the words Ichabod has been wrote upon this nation, the “glory has departed.”

Power is being replaced by “pole dancing”. Bring your Bibles and Beer, pull up a seat and call it a church. Whatever we need to do to reach the lost but their methods is meaningless. From Gay bars to nightclubs, Bible study now has become the norm but with no effectiveness to bring them out of their lifestyle only to give those a comfortable atmosphere so they don’t have to go before a Holy God of conviction. Their conscience has condemned them because they are not “in” Christ but in convenience.

Smoke machines has replaced the Glory, pimps instead of prophets, playboys but no prayer meetings, clowns and no conviction, feasting instead of fasting, magic instead of miracles, plays instead of passion.

Pillow prophets prophecy of “better days” ahead but how can God bless what has become a curse? The prosperity gospel has turned into a money making machine until people has lost confidence in men of God. Yes, there is a real truth about giving and receiving and I believe that but prosperity is not a sign of God’s approval but that you prayed and God provided.

We have given names to illnesses to excuse behavior but sin is at the root. Legalized sin has become the answer, calling right wrong and wrong right. Faith has been lost among people in church and the ministry has become ineffective in many ways. The once consecrated Church could move mountains but most cannot even move a mole hill.

Eli, the High Priest of Israel lost his sight, his direction and covered his eyes up to the sins of his priestly sons. The Ark of the Covenant was taken by the Philistines and dark days hit Israel. Before the Ark was taken we read this:

1 Samuel 3:1-3
1 And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision.
2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place, and his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see;
3 And ere the lamp of God went out in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was…

We have lost our spiritual sight in America until we cannot see the real problem and it is called sin and the lack of calling it like it is.

Our lamp has gone out, our eyes have become dim, discernment has been lost and the Word of God is neither precious nor held in high regard as it once was.

This is America that does not know the Lord or God’s provided way back to Him.

The sons of Eli were now the sons of Belial.

1 Samuel 2:12
"Now the sons of Eli were sons of Belial; they knew not the Lord."
These priestly son of Eli now were sons of Belial. What is Belial? Here we see:

Smith's Bible Dictionary - Belial
“The meaning of this word as found in the Scriptures is worthlessness, and hence reckless, lawlessness. The expression son or man of Belial must be understood as meaning simply a worthless, lawless fellow. The term as used in (2 Corinthians 6:15) is generally understood as an appellative of Satan, as the personification of all that was bad.”

ATS Bible Dictionary - Belial
“Worthlessness - always so used in a moral sense. A man or son of Belial is a wicked, worthless man; one resolved to endure no subjection; a rebel; a disobedient, uncontrollable fellow, Judges 19:22; 1 Samuel 2:12. In later writings, Belial is put for the power or lord of evil, Satan, 1 Corinthians 6:15.”
This has become the “church” of America, the conscience of America. “I’m good. I’m a son of a High Priest (Christ). I can do what I want and still serve the Lord and NO one can tell me what to do.”

Have you become a son of “Belial?” Have you lost your moral sense? Are you a rebel, disobedient, reckless, and shacking up Belial claiming to be a son of the High Priest? I tell you, you know not the Lord.

We have left the discarded values of the past for a more progressive way to God but God has not changed nor has His Word.

Revelation 3:14-22
“… unto Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Laodicea is two Greek words - laos means people, nation, or crowd; dike means custom, law, judgment, penalty, or punishment, depending on the context. From that, most conclude that the Laodicea people saw themselves as a people of justice or law-abiding people.

They were lukewarm, increased with goods but they were deceived.

Fanny Crosby who wrote of 8,000 hymns of the Church who lived in the late 1800’s when just a little baby girl, the doctor put some medicine in her eyes that caused her to go blind. Growing up God gifted her with the talent to write songs that is still sung in the churches today.

Someone came to her and said, “Fanny, you’re blind. What if you get to heaven and you are still blind, how are you going to know Jesus?” She said, “I shall know him. I shall know him by the prints of the nails in His hands.”

It’s time to pray for eye salve to put on our eyes that God may open them so we can see again!

The Clarion Call is Clear – unless we get back to the altars there is no alternative.

I believe God is sending out a Call back to the altar and the REVIVAL will come back for a season but not the way it’s been preached. It will come to rural areas of those who are hungry for a “real” move. Back-wood churches that have become sick of the way things have become. Tent Revivals will come back for a season.

You may disagree on what I have said but the call is clear – live or die, sink or swim there is a people who in the end who will fulfill the Joel 2 prophecy and become the people who will not play but prophecy.

The anointing will come upon the sons and daughter. Aged men and handmaidens will step out with a clear call.

The church will not go down in defeat but will leave this in Victory.

Israel left Egypt, not in defeat but Victory. This Church will leave this earth in VICTORY!

I have spoken this truth in love. God is love but there must be action and not just hearers.

Ephesians 4:15
"But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:"

His Servant, Pastor Hale

  1. I just pray that repentance,revival,and restoration comes soon. Our children and grandchildren future is at stake. What you have shared is certainly true and agree with you in prayer. When reading this it reminded me of a dream back in Jan 2016.
    In a dream I saw the Capitol building engulfed in thick black smoke with some flames of fire reflecting inside.
    There were a crowd of people standing around watching. I heard someone say," Don't worry it won't spread no farther."
    At that moment the entire capitol building became glowing and red hot like metal heated in a forge. Then darts of fire came flying off the Capitol and began hitting other places in Washington D.C.

    The understanding after praying about it, that the judgement of the Lord would began there. Among a complacent and rebellious people.
    For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my Name shall be great among the Nations; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my Name, and a pure offering: for my Name shall be great among the Nations, saith YeHOVAH of hosts. Malachi 1:11
    THE LAMB IS WORTHY TO RECEIVE THE REWARD OF HIS SACRIFICE
