Yesterday, I received the following word of warning in an email from Z3 contributor Casey Toda.
Two nights ago, while I was washing dishes. I heard very clearly:
“The greatest shaking that has ever occurred in your nation will commence now.”
I honestly am not sure if it was The Lord or one of His angels who spoke this but I heard it very clearly. I asked for scripture and God told me to read Isaiah chapters 8-10 and Jeremiah chapters 19-21. I did not know what was in these chapters, but they parallel and confirm what I had heard.
As Casey was told, the prophet Isaiah warned Israel about destruction coming upon them because they refused to trust in God.
5 Again the Lord spoke to me further, saying,
6 “Inasmuch as these people have rejected the gently flowing waters of Shiloh and rejoice in Rezin and the son of Remaliah;
7 “Now therefore, behold, the Lord is about to bring on them the strong and abundant waters of the Euphrates,
even the king of Assyria and all his glory; and it will rise up over all its channels and go over all its banks.
8 “Then it will sweep on into Judah, it will overflow and pass through, it will reach even to the neck; and the spread of its wings will fill the breadth of your land, O Immanuel. (Isaiah 8:5-8)
The northern kingdom of Samaria was allied with King Rezin of Syria (Isaiah 8:4 and 8:6). Samaria refused to trust in God, “the waters of Shiloh that go softly.”Instead, they trusted in King Rezin to protect them from the Assyrians. Because of this, God sent the Assyrians to overflow their land like a flood (Isaiah 8:6-7). Afterwards, the king of Assyria also invaded Judah (Isaiah 8:8). This was partially fulfilled about three years later when Assyria destroyed Rezin, King of Syria (2 Kings 16:5-18 and 2 Chronicles 28:20-25); then more completely fulfilled with Israel some eighteen years afterward when the ten tribes were taken captive (2 Kings 17).
Instead of repenting from their sins, the Israelites defied the judgments of God by saying they would rebuild their cities with stronger material, large hewn stones and cedars that are stronger than sycamores, which grew abundantly in the low lands of Judea, but weren’t considered good building material compared to cedars (1 Kings 10:27; 2 Chronicles 1:15; 9:27). King Rezin of Syria was destroyed by his enemies (2 Kings 16:5-18).
8 The Lord sends a message against Jacob, and it falls on Israel.
9 And all the people know it, that is, Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria, asserting in pride and in arrogance of heart:
10 “The bricks have fallen down, but we will rebuild with smooth stones; the sycamores have been cut down, but we will replace them with cedars.”
11 Therefore Yahweh raises against them adversaries from Rezin and spurs their enemies on,
12 The Arameans on the east and the Philistines on the west; and they devour Israel with gaping jaws. In spite of all this, His anger does not turn away and His hand is still stretched out.
13 Yet the people do not turn back to Him who struck them, nor do they seek the Lord of hosts.
14 So the Lord cuts off head and tail from Israel, both palm branch and bulrush in a single day. (Isaiah 9:8-14)
In his book “The Harbinger,” Rabbi Jonathan Cahn shared how the leaders of the United States proclaimed the exact same words of defiance spoken by the the leaders of ancient Israel after we were attacked on September 11 2001. The following is a quote from Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle spoken before Congress the very next day, September 12 2001:
“I know that there is only the smallest measure of inspiration that can be taken from this devastation, but there is a passage in the Bible from Isaiah that I think speaks to all of us at times like this… ‘The bricks have fallen down, But we will rebuild with dressed stone; The fig trees have been felled, But we will replace them with cedars.’ (Source: Washington File, “Senate Majority Leader Daschle Expresses Sorrow“)
Our leaders were defiant then and appear to be just as defiant today. This past Sunday marked the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, so the NFL conducted a brief memorial service at stadiums throughout America prior to the start of every game. However, they were careful to omit any mention of God from their memorials. After all, someone might get offended. So they offered up a moment of silence instead.
Does this sound like a nation that has turned back to God? Not hardly. We are more devoted to the god of political correctness today than ever.
Why should we expect God to deal with us differently than He dealt with Israel? Are we hoping God will change His ways? His anger remained strong against Israel because the punishment did not bring them to repentance, so more punishment was required (Isaiah 5:25, 9:12, 9:17, 9:21 and 10:4). The prophet Jeremiah warned Israel how God would deal with their defiance:
15 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, “Behold, I am about to bring on this city and all its towns the entire calamity that I have declared against it, because they have stiffened their necks so as not to heed My words.” (Jeremiah 29:15)
The good news for ancient Israel was a righteous remnant escaped destruction and truly relied on Yahweh. Even though many were destroyed, righteousness was restored to their land in the end.
20 Now in that day the remnant of Israel, and those of the house of Jacob who have escaped, will never again rely on the one who struck them, but will truly rely on Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel.
21 A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.
22 For though your people, O Israel, may be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant within them will return; a destruction is determined, overflowing with righteousness. (Isaiah 10:20-22)
Just like Israel, I believe righteousness will ultimately prevail in America. The only question is, who and what will remain to be part of it?

While I was running errands today the Holy Spirit said, “Consider this tree.” I was looking at a giant tree I had never seen before. He then showed me a river next to it and I was calm and relaxing with my feet in the water. I knew in the back of my mind that there was a verse relating to a “tree planted by the water” so as soon as I got home I looked it up to see what He was telling me.
Jeremiah 17:7 “But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him. 8They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”
Well, the “heat comes” quickly but so thankful that the Lord is reminding me that we need not worry if we are trusting in Him and putting our confidence in Him!
Simply awesome Mar. Thank you for sharing.
An interesting word James……It reminds me to continue staying vigilant and ready…….God is on the move………In ways and things we haven’t even seen yet………
Thank you for being faithful………and to many of us that will endure to the end…….
There is no doubt that a great percentage of United States Citizens have fallen away from the Lord Jesus Christ. However, with the news being so bias and liberal we will never know how large the true remnant has grown. I have heard stories of GREAT REVIVAL coming to many states. Revivals that are led by the Holy Spirit. We have been praying for revival to come to Owsley County. There is NO DOUBT we are living in end times but we must always remember our GOD wants no one to perish. So use these turbulent times as way to get people to open up and talk so that you can witness to them about our Lord Jesus Christ. Always remember when destruction occurs if you are spared then fulfill your purpose. Bring home the harvest, that is our purpose as servants in his Kingdom. Lord of Lords and Kings of Kings.
God Bless.
Hello Todd,
Indeed “revival” is coming, but it won’t happen until some major horrific events occur. This country is so spiritually comatose, with most professing Christians being so lukewarm, discipline is needed to wake people up.
The “revival” will be with grief and tears . . . A bitter-sweet time because souls will be coming into the Kingdom of Heaven with miracles, signs and wonders. . . BUT during a time when millions will perish.
LORD HELP US ALL BE FAITHFUL TO THE END AND OBEY YOUR COMMENTS FULLY!!!
Linda
couldn’t agree more, some time ago many well meaning sincere people tried to counsel me on Matt Smith post that should pray against God’s judgement or at least pray for a delay as I said I wouldn’t, I would pray in the judgement there would be a great harvest. I know in my personal life until I experienced judgement I went astray and it was God’s judgment/punishment that brought me back as Psalms 119:67 says
Before I experienced your affliction I went astray but because of your affliction I learned your statutes. And your statutes are more valuable than pieces of silver and Gold.
It will be in the affliction/judgement that we will see many come into the kingdom so I’m praying for the harvest, not for delays, not against the judgement.
I agree with Linda. If only we could see the Fire that was poured out in the 80’s, but that was marred by Pentecostal’s who went awry (Of which I am a devout Pentecostal Person) The only thing that spoiled or Luke-warm or back-sliding Christians need is a little discomfort……….As we all know Prophetically speaking, ,……a lot discomfort is coming to America-Draw Nigh unto God now, before the onslaught hits
I woke up Thur. Sept 8th hearing someone singing “The shaking is beginning.” I immediately thought of Heb. 12:26,27 which I had read just a few days earlier.
I have had such a heaviness in my heart today. So heavy that when I was working in my yard this morning I had stop and kneel down and pray in our shop, (didn’t take the time to walk into the house) as prompted by the Lord. I was prompted to pray for MERCY for my family and especially for the children in our entire family, the little ones. I know what is coming is going to be horrific, but by God’s strength we will endure. I pray for mercy on all of us!
Thank you for the additional insights. I completely agree. The Lord has continued to speak to me on this subject even after the second posting. He said I needed to point out Small Miracles/Blessings to my children and other non-believers, or those weak in their faith. I need to help them recognize the Hand of God. He also told me that one of my responsibilities was to be a “Testament to GOD’S GLORY.” I continue to pray for my children and their salvation. I can see changes that I never thought I would see, but always hoped for. We are going to see amazing things. Just like the scripture says, Habakkuk 1:5 Look among the nations and watch- Be utterly astounded! For I will work a work in your days which you would not believe, though it were told to you. And Acts 13:41 ‘Behold, you despisers, Marvel and perish! For I work a work in your days, A work which you will by no means believe, Though one were to declare it to you.’
B. Hansen,
Your post makes good sense.
All I can say is, “Amen“! I just spent time with the Lord, as is my custom each day, but this time in great travail and I didn’t know why. My wife also was very disturbed in her spirit the last 2 nights as well. After this time of prayer today, the Lord led me to read both 2 Kings 11 and Jeremiah 19! God made it very clear that His judgment/shaking is here because so many are still worshiping Baal today, and as He says in Jeremiah 19:15,
There is much devastation coming. Much. But God has assured me today that as we draw ever closer to Him, HE will be our Peace!!
Thank you for sharing Casey’s message!
James,
The picture depicts a home destroyed in an earthquake. So far the only post about that is Ed W. What ever type of shaking Caseys warning is about we should all be getting ready.
I had a dream last weekend that I was buying earthquake insurance and it was only for a small period of time. Could have been a warning as well.
I think that most awake Christians will admit the tremors have already started. We need to tolerate LGBT people but how dare we pray in public or say out loud God Bless you.
Starbucks caves in and takes Merry Christmas off their cups because that’s just too offensive to some people. Target caves in and now has transgender bathrooms. Thank God for righteous people because after that their stock dropped.
High school football plays Metalica “For whom the bell tolls” during time outs. But don’t you dare consider a Christian Rock band that might offend someone.
This country has a bunch of grown men that never grew up and are afraid to stand up for what’s right and for what’s wrong. Everyone gets a prize and everyone is a winner. So now all their kids grow up and everyone feels entitled and does not want to work and also want $15/hr min wage. God needs to give America a serious spanking I’m surprised at his mercy he should have done it when we took him out of schools.
I had a dream about a month ago where I was in a building in a meeting. The building started to shake and everybody starting running and panicking. I slowly took the time to put my papers back in my briefcase and then wAlked slowly to find an exit. As I was walking out of the building, I looked to my right and saw the buildings falling down and crashing into each other. I have had other dreams that have scared the hell out of me but the coolest part about this latest one is that I had no fear whatsoever. I was calm, cool, and collected. I believe as long as we have faith and trust in our lord, he will bring us through these calamities!,
Is 47 may apply to America and her current condition. Verse 11 is potent:
Therefore evil shall come upon you;
You shall not know from where it arises.
And trouble shall fall upon you;
You will not be able to put it off.
And desolation shall come upon you suddenly,
Which you shall not know.
The entire chapter is about the judgment of the one who “sits as a queen”, saying “I will never see destruction”.
Yes Ed it’s what it looks like, put that with was it AA Alan’s dream on top of the Empire state building?
I am not sure if A.A. Allen’s vision applies, as that seemed to be a chemical or nerve gas attack and nuclear missiles coming over our northern border, but shaking could take many forms. I assumed Casey meant earthquakes.
The Allen vision also dealt with Jer 25 – the golden cup in God’s hands that had become polluted, and USA was now required to drink from His cup of judgment. Staggering of the Statue of Liberty was accomplished, until it’s complete demise in the Gulf of Mexico. Not a pretty picture.
There are probably hundreds of visions, dreams, and words on the destruction of at least parts of America by earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis.
I see the resemblence when you said “The entire chapter is about the judgment about the one who “sits as a queen” saying i will never see destruction”
(holding the “golden cup”, she fell..)
Hello James,
I want to confirm this warning Word you posted. I also was taken into Isaiah yesterday and given these warning Words that I had to post today:

I was able to catch Mena tonight. Very heavy, I believe she’s putting it on her Faithfulwalkhealingministeries site. It’s here, the judgement. So be prepared spiritually and physically, keep oil in your lamps. Be aware Mena has her Watchmen call in meeting Sept 30, at 8:00 pm Eastern time. She will go into more detail then, pastor Ben Fairclothe will be her guest that night. It will be worth calling in.
Yes, just posted a summary under Sonia’s comment.
Monia, how do you access Mena Lee’s LIVE teaching ?
Do you just go to her FB page at 6:30 pm?
Thanks.
Thanks Monia !
I meant Sept 30th for the internet access. Sorry I know some typos/grammar mistakes but tried to put everything I could remember.
I’ll be on the radio tonight (9-14-16), LORD willing. We’ll see what the Holy Spirit will have us do. Here’s the link, if any are interested. It will also be archived:

Linda, looking forward to hearing your interview. The one from last Wednesday was excellent. God bless you!
You beat me to it, Linda. I was just ready to post your warning here.
Sadly, I believe your warning is entirely correct.
Ed W.,
Thanks for sharing. Also, I’m sure you didn’t recognize “o” and his wife at that time since they were not well known, but identified them in later years?
Peggy,
I knew nothing of the O’s at the time of the vision. The black widow dress got me to thinking. We will wait in further developments.
