In reading the words the Lord has spoken on the 25th of each month, I was struck with their power. The word from September 25, 2024 caused a sense of the weight of God’s coming judgment in America to fall upon me. The words from March 25 (recorded on this blog on March 26) and August 25 of this year align. Here is a reposting of excerpts as God would have us read–and heed–today, for this time draws near:

September 25, 2024: “Go down with Me. Down to the depths. What would you see there? Depths of Satan. Would you want to see? Could you look at the acts of violence and depravity? I SEE THEM EVERY DAY. ALL DAY. I AM perfection of holiness. You are not. Yet My blood makes you holy. You cannot stand to look at the acts I look at. You cannot take seeing the victims. Why is this? Why must you look away in horror? Tell Me, does looking away make it easier for you to FORGET? I look because I CAN’T FORGET. I will NOT forget the suffering. I LOOK because I LOVE. I judge because I LOVE. Whom do I love? Both the sufferer AND the wicked. Whom does My heart hurt worse for? Why do I not strike the striker immediately? You hurt for the victim, as I do. I hurt also for the evil doer, for I see where they are going. I see them bound for eternity if they do not stop. Do you know the tortures of hell, of eternal damnation? An innocent child flies directly to me in death. An eternity so bright and full of LOVE that all is forgotten. FORGIVEN. The wicked die forever. Constant unrelenting death. I DIED FOR THEM TOO. They were offered LIFE. They chose DEATH. I will give them every chance to turn. WHY CAN I NOT LOOK AWAY FROM HORROR? I have one to comfort, and one to convict. Equal LOVE. Equal compassion. YET I BURN WITH ANGER AT THE INJUSTICE. And the cries of a victim require JUSTICE. Justice and righteousness are the foundation of My THRONE. I WILL BRING FORTH JUSTICE. Justice and mercy–MY balance. When does the scale tip? How can anyone decide but ME? Cry for the abused and broken. And cry for the condemned. Cry out to me for the victim. Cry out to Me for the condemned. Justice is in MY hands. TRUST ME FOR JUSTICE. You cannot weigh this balance. You were not meant to.

“I do not judge you for looking away. For wanting to push from your mind a horrifying act. You are not meant to decide such things. I AM. Come to Me for comfort. Cry to Me for JUSTICE. The balance is MINE. I weigh ETERNITY. I am full of MERCY. My MERCY reigns–while there is a chance for ETERNITY. The choice is not Mine. It belongs to the doer. His cup is full when My mercy no longer has a chance to triumph. RIGHTEOUSNESS endures.

“To GOD be the GLORY forever and ever. Amen.”

March 25, 2025: …”Your ‘rationality,’ your ‘logic’ on your very best day will not serve you in the coming days. For you will see things you cannot explain. You will be knocked off your feet, with nothing to support you. AND THEN YOU WILL KNOW THAT I AM GOD.

“You who know Me, My beloved People, open your mouth and SPEAK. The stunned and fearful will need your answers of Me. They will seek the reason for your firmness, your lack of fear. They will seek Me and you. TESTIFY TO THEM. These are My Harvest, suddenly stripped of all they ‘know,’ all they have held as ‘sacred.’ The word makes no sense without Me.

“Look to yourselves, My People. Fortify yourself in Me NOW. Hold nothing back from Me. Empty yourself out before Me – and I will fill you with all the Faith you will need. I WILL have My Harvest. They must see Me at work. If they have yet not perceived Me in all I DO and AM, will they not require a shaking to wake them from their stupor? They will seek shelter in the storm. Lead them to Me. Strengthen yourself now – so you can be a support to them. KNOW your God, and TELL them.

“If you knew a storm was coming, what would you do to prepare? Would you not fortify? Strap down against wind? Fortify your soul. Come to ME. Rest in ME. Seek Me with your all. And be My help to those who are blown and tossed. Be Shelter. Speak Truth. Bring in My Harvest.

“A STORM IS COMING.”

August 25, 2025: “I come upon the breath of My Truth. I come to the nations to judge and reward based on My TRUTH. The feet of the Lion of Judah touch down upon the earth to walk its soil. To call for Judgment where needed and to call for Reward to those who follow Me. My Judgment upon the unrepentant wicked is for all to see. For through My Judgment, My Righteousness shines. What good is a Righteous God who never displays His Righteousness? Who sees sin and injustice and merely shrugs? Understand this, all people of the earth – I NEVER shrug. I wait in My Mercy, I give time for repentance. I call and call to the wicked, giving them warning after warning. I do not rejoice in judging the wicked. I would that I do not have to judge anyone. But judge I shall, when My Mercy no longer can apply. When My Mercy can no longer be felt, can no longer penetrate a heart so hardened against it. I weigh Judgment and Mercy in My Hands. I judge to punish for sin, I judge to save the innocent.

“My Kingdom come on earth cannot come without the winnowing fork of my Judgment and Reward. For through this very reaping My Power and Glory shall be seen by all. Many people on the earth – people I created – do not know how to FEAR Me. The FEAR of the Lord is the BEGINNING OF WISDOM. Without FEAR of Me, no one can set his course aright. No one can be cleansed of his sin against Me. THE EARTH MUST LEARN TO FEAR ME. The FEAR of Me brings reverence toward Me. It places Me as Head of ALL. It does not forget that you are the created, and I AM GOD. Only through this proper reverence of Me can you love Me and follow Me as you should.

“I require Holiness. I require Purity. I will build My Kingdom on earth within My People who walk in My Holiness and the Authority given to them through My Blood. Great Warriors cannot rise to such greatness without understanding their Authority and Power. Great Warriors fight as one for a common goal. The Great Warriors of My Kingdom will rise in Power, displaying signs, wonders, and miracles in My Name – all through the Glory of My Name. Look to this Promise, O My People. Those of you who still look to the skies for Me to sneak to the earth and take you out of it – it is time for you to realign your expectations with My plans. My People are not helpless. They need not be rescued. On the great contrary, YOU are needed on this earth to carry My Glory to the nations. To bring in My Harvest and disciple them as they grow into My Great Warriors.

“It starts with Judgment. With Judgment, Justice finally comes. Displayed on earth for all to see. As My People rise, so shall My Glory rise upon the Earth. As you walk in ALL the Authority I give you under My Blood, you shall fear NOTHING from your enemy. For you shall be VICTORIOUS. LIMITLESS.

“Amen.”

This word about kindness is reposted from March 22, 2025. I love this word from the Lord. So many times He has reminded me of it as I am interacting with people.

1:07: “Show Me what Kindness is, and I will show you the Lord.

“My People overlook Kindness. It does not lead the list of My Fruit of the Spirit, as Love does. Nor does it fill a place often hard to achieve, as does Patience. All of My People seek Joy. But what is Kindness?

“Kindness is serving at its best.

“Kindness comes from Paying Attention to what is important to others. Therefore it requires a looking outward, a focus on others rather than on oneself. Kindness takes the time to speak a compliment when none is expected. Kindness picks up and returns a part to a toy that a child you do not know has unknowingly dropped. Kindness listens attentively even when the conversation seems unimportant to you. Kindness seeks out what would give someone an unexpected pleasure – and gives it. Kindness helps another work when one’s own rest would be preferred. Kindness always goes the extra mile. Fills in gaps. Seeks to delight. Meets a need. Kindness is unassuming. Rolls off easily and without second thought, for it is embedded in one’s nature.

“Ask Me for Kindness – and I will build it within you. Pay attention to My acts of Kindness toward YOU – and thank Me for them.

“BE KIND as I AM KIND. Amen.”

Ephesians 4:32: Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

“These indeed are the days of Wonder, oh America. Look to the trajectory of the words I have given you. Words of Promise and Delight. I have told you on the 21st of the month how to Delight in Me. How you must forever Hunger for me. I have promised you that I will keep you in this present storm. I have called out to you to serve others and allow yourselves to be my Beacon of Light to the world, even as difficult circumstances swirl around you. All of these Promises hold fast and are vital for you in this time. Go back and read. Go back and heed. My words to you, My People, are rich and timeless. They speak of My never-ending Glory – Glory I now release upon you. Open your eyes and ears to My Words. Read them with fresh eyes. My Words are guides to you in this time of difficulty – and in the time of great blessing and prosperity, in the Time of Peace. In the Days of Beauty. You, My People of America, will come through this storm refined. I have sent you fire and water. I have allowed you difficult days and circumstances. All of these things I have used together in My Mighty Hand to prepare you for carrying My Glory and Power. To the ends of the Earth, I will carry you. And FOR the ends of the Earth – for those people scattered to the farthest winds – I carry you, for you are My Voice to these. You are My Harvesters. I need you honed and willing and selfless as you work for Me and My Harvest.

“Remain in Me. As My Son said – ‘Abide in Me.’ This is your simple command. And your ALL ENCOMPASSING command. You read these words and perhaps think – I know this. I have heard this. HEAR AGAIN. Meditate on the enormousness of these words. When you truly abide in Me – when you seek Me constantly and give Me your all, moment my moment – you LACK NOTHING to fight your enemy. Your enemy is on the prowl now as never before, for they see My Mighty Works in the nation of America. And they are terribly afraid. As you abide in Me, you stand above all they do, above all their threats. You stand steady and strong. And yes, with Me, you can laugh at them – for you see their end.

“In what do you doubt Me? Look intently upon yourself to see. Give your doubts and anxieties to Me. Send them away from yourself onto Me. And I will give you the Faith required of you. I give you all the Faith you are willing to take and to carry from Me, no more and no less. Your willingness is always required. Therefore – WILL ME INTO YOUR LIFE WITHOUT RESTRICTION. And you shall rise to a Glory you have never known. For you have no end in sight as you fully ABIDE IN ME. Amen.“

Notes:

The Lord is referring back to these words He has spoken: August 21, 2025–His wonder coming at Christmas time. July 21, 2025–His word about hunger. June 21, 2025–His word about delight. February 21, 2025–His word about our being a beacon of light. These all are amazing words. You can go to burningbrand.blog and scroll down a little to bring up the search icon at the bottom right. Type in these dates one by one to bring up the corresponding word.

Psalm 119:105: Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.

John 16:33: I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.

Isaiah 41:10: So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Proverbs 2:6: For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Psalm 66:8-12: Praise our God, all peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard; he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping. For you, God, tested us; you refined us like silver. You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs. You let people ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.

Joh 15:4-5: Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. 

Psalm 2:1-6: Why are the nations in an uproar and the peoples devising a vain thing? The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against His Anointed, saying, “Let us tear their fetters apart and cast away their cords from us!” He who sits in the heavens laughs, the Lord scoffs at them. Then He will speak to them in His anger and terrify them in His fury, saying, “But as for Me, I have installed My King upon Zion, My holy mountain.”

II Corinthians 5:7: For we walk by faith, not by sight.

Mark 11:22-24: Have faith in God. Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.

I Peter 5:6-7: Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

Hebrews 13:5-6: …He Himself has said, “I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you,” so that we confidently say, “The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What will man do to me?”

The Lord has instructed me to repost part of His word spoken on February 19, 2025. He spoke numerous times that night. Now as He is proclaiming His glory is soon to come, He reminds us of His word spoken at 3:28 a.m. that night:

“Do not ask Me for My Glory upon you. Ask Me to PREPARE you for it – for the full extent I would have you carry. Then you must be willing to PAY THE PRICE in obedience. When you have emptied yourself, obey all I ask of you – then I will give you My Glory as a mantle.

“My Glory can be seen when it falls – as a mist, a cloud, even as fire as at Pentecost with My first disciples. Anyone can see My Glory. Few can carry it. You must be willing to give Me your life. You must be willing to go through the fire of preparation – My fire that refines. My Glory is heavy. It must sit on a firm foundation of Love and Humility. My Glory is Kingdom first, never ‘Me first.’ My Glory is for My Servants.

“Ask Me to prepare you. This takes time, the continued refining of a willing heart. A Yes to My every command, even before you know what I will require.

“My Glory comes with a price. My Glory is worth it.

“Ask – and Come.”

Notes:

II Corinthians 3:17-18: Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

II Chronicles 5:13-14: …then the house, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud, so that the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.

Exodus 13:21: The Lord was going before them in a pillar of cloud by day to lead them on the way, and in a pillar of fire by night to give them light, that they might travel by day and by night.

Luke 49:52-53, Acts 2:1-4: [Jesus said] “I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”…When he had led them out to the vicinity of Bethany, he lifted up his hands and blessed them…Then they worshiped him and returned to Jerusalem with great joy. And they stayed continually at the temple, praising God…When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. And there appeared to them tongues as of fire distributing themselves, and they rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance.

“God – I – created the universe. The stars, moon, your sun. I created you. My Son Jesus spoke the Word – and you came into existence. Not born yet but living in Me, a spirit whole and Loved, knit by our hands.

“Can you see this with your spiritual eyes? Can you begin to understand the Love through which you were created, nestled and complete in Me until the time of your earthly conception? At that moment your spirit joined with the elements of mankind to form the body, soul, and spirit of YOU. The womb nurtured you as I ordained. My Voice birthed you. My Love surrounded you – and carries you still.

“Stop for a moment your earthly pursuits, turn aside from their cares – and marvel at the wonder of YOU.

“Your every moment, the time in which you are reading these words, was ordained by Me. Woven in miracles and silken mystery of My Plans and Destiny for you and your choices of free will, known beforehand by Me. Such mysteries can fill an eternity and not wear out, ever more to be discovered.

“When you feel weak, depressed, small against your world – remember these things. Remember the vast Care and Love and Thought of which you were created. You are not – were never created to be – small. Or weak. Or overcome. Your very existence is My Joy, the crown of My achievements. Such is the LOVE poured into you. Into your Uniqueness. You cannot fathom a LOVE such as Mine for you – yet I ask you to try. For even the smallest corner of understanding far outweighs and victors over your concerns and burdens of earth. When I call you to REST in Me, your God, it is these mysteries of your life interwoven with Me that I call you to contemplate. To nestle into and lose yourself in the wonder of Me and you intertwined. Such REST removes your doubts of WHO you are and invigorates you with My Spirit. Such REST reminds you of your infinite potential in Me, for I AM Infinite.

“Come, My Child, REST in Me. Ask Me where to go, what to say and do in your present situation. Forget your earthly-tethered thoughts and Soar with the possibilities – no longer impossible – I have for you. Rest and soak in My endless energy and strength. Just REST WITH with ME. You are not overcome, you are not out of options. You are with ME. I turn the wheels of this earth. I pinned the stars. I can lead, guide, and refresh you. You are never out of answers. I AM your answer. COME. Forsake your worry and let Me rock you. Come and REST – and be made whole. I AM your God who Loves you. I wait for you with anticipation of what we can do together. COME.”

Notes:

When the Lord speaks of His ordaining of our destiny mixed with our free will–I can surely believe this would take an eternity to ponder. As He often says, the choice to follow Him is ours. All of this is indeed a great mystery. If you have found your way to this word and feel your spirit stirred by it–you can surely know He ordained this moment. He’s calling to YOU.

Colossians 1:16-17:  For in him [Jesus] all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 

Psalm 139:13-18: For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand.

Zephaniah 3:17: The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.

Jeremiah 31:3: The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.

Psalm 36:5-9: Your love, Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your justice like the great deep. You, Lord, preserve both people and animals. How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings. They feast on the abundance of your house; you give them drink from your river of delights. For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.

Colossians 3:2:  Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

Matthew 11:28-30: Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

Isaiah 26:3: You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.

Philippians 4:6-7: Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Psalm 55:22: Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.

Psalm 23:1-4: The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
