Great persecution is upon you

September 20, 2026 – Message from the Lord to Julie Whedbee (USA)

(Reading: 1 min)

«Daughter speak! Speak to My church, My body: great persecution is upon you.

Most of My people have fallen under a great deception, having been indoctrinated by man’s religions, traditions and doctrines of demons, and have not studied to show themselves approved concerning the subject of persecution.

Most believe they will not experience any persecution, especially in the [Eagle Land], and that My coming for them will precede any direct challenges or difficulties, as they express their faith and go about their lives freely.

However, this is not the truth that I speak about in My Word.

Look around you everywhere, and you will see that the persecution of those who profess a relationship with Me is increasing exponentially, and will spill over even to the smallest and least thought of areas of life as you know it.

Freedoms that were once taken for granted will be taken away in an instant, and the right to worship, pray and express one’s belief in Me will instantly be stripped from you. It is happening to an even greater extent all around the world, and My sons and daughters are being martyred now in numbers never seen before.

Persecution comes in many forms, but I am warning My children to expect great persecution where it has not been a problem previously.

My Church must stand strong in her faith and not waver.

My Church must expect all that has been spoken of in My Word to be fulfilled, before I come for her.

I have given each one the grace to endure, but some will be called upon to lay down their lives.

Prepare My beloved ones, for the days are very, very evil, and My design must play out in order that I am glorified in what I have spoken and what must come to pass.

There will be a strengthening of My remnant to endure, those who seek Me with everything they have, those who have prepared themselves, and I will indwell them and they walk with no fear. But, for those who have been lukewarm, there will be much hardship.

I have separated and I have divided. It is done.. and the outcome for each group is according to the obedience that has been shown to Me.

Always remember, however, I am always with you. I will never leave you or forsake you. Be strong My children! Be strong until the end, regardless of which group you belong to for My design is perfect, and I have a purpose for each and every one made in My image».
