Desires of the Flesh

Last week the Lord had me begin conserving water. I like to take long showers and I shave in the shower. But now I wash my hair and face, then turn the water off while I wash the rest of my body. Then I turn the water on to rinse off, then turn if off. Then I shave, without the water running, then turn it on to rinse off. When I am washing dishes I am learning how to do it with the least amount of water. Yes, I am even learning how to use the toilet (urinating) several times before I flush it.

Then He started having me conserve electricity. I am 64, 65 in November (UGH!), and I like a lot of light in the house because the older I get, the more light I need to see. Yet, I found out that I really don't need lights on in each room, and that there are several things I can do without turning on the lights in other rooms of the house.

A dear friend of mine asked me why the Lord was having me do these things. I replied without thinking "As an example to others." I thought afterwards "That's nice God, but who is going to see me doing this?" He didn't reply.

Then (yes, all this happened last week), He had me begin a fruit-only fast, for how long I do not know. Except He let me eat normally this weekend. Today I had actually planned on having only fruit, but as I was driving down the road I was drawn to a Fuddrucker's restaurant. Now, I know that the newspaper said that Five Guys Burger Restaurant has the best burgers, but as far as I'm concerned Fuddrucker's burgers can't be beat! As I went in the front door there were several people standing in line in front of me - all of them were obese. I looked around the restaurant and most of the people in there were obese. As I sat eating my world's best hamburger I kept thinking "How are these people going to survive in a few years when there is going to be just barely enough food to survive on, sometimes not even that?"

My sisters and brothers, in just a few short years - less than five, there is going to be a great famine in this land. There will not be enough food to feed everyone. The pictures we've seen of the poor, starving people in Africa are going to be a reality in this country. Those of you who are overweight will have an extremely difficult time surviving. Do you think that in the places of refuge that there will be an abundance of food? There WILL NOT BE! There will be enough to survive on, but that will be all. If you think that others will give up their portion because you're still hungry after you've had your share, you are badly mistaken.

In addition to that, everyone in these places of refuge will be required to work, manual labor of some sort or other. Overweight people will receive no mercy because of their problem. It will be either work and eat, or not work and not eat. If you think I'm being hard about this, wait a few years and you will be glad I am telling you these things so that you can begin to change your ways now.

It is time now to get the desires of your flesh under control. If you wait, you will not survive what is coming upon this nation.

The first prophetic message I wrote on this blog, http://watchman2009.blogspot.com/2009/03/destruction-of-usa.html
will tell you about the solar storms that will cause much of this famine. This one also will give you more information: http://watchman2009.blogspot.com/2009/10/solar-storms.html

There will be during these times a drought as well as a famine. Now is the time to begin to learn good water conservation habits. Electricity will be extraordinarily expensive, so now is the time to learn how to save on electricity. Gasoline will be hard to come by and wretchedly expensive, so learn now how to conserve gas.

Now is the time to begin to get the flesh under control.

On another subject, the situation in the Gulf of Mexico is not over. What we're seeing now is a pause in the actions of the Lord. The worst is yet to come. The second rig exploding a couple of weeks ago is God's sign regarding that.
