Lamentations are here. Weeping and wailing go before her, crying like a depraved animal.
A once bountiful nation that rose to the top, now hovers to go down, down, down.
A once sanctified nation has now spotted and wrinkled herself with atrocities and abominations. Her bloodshed is fresh and knows no bounds.
A type of fever has risen up in her and will not let her go. Her end will be destruction, the greatest and most sorrowful destruction that will ever come upon the earth.
A dividing of America is here. It has come and will come!
The bell is TOLLING… TOLLING… TOLLING…
The weeping begins now, as the old pours into the new… 2016.
The antichrist is rising and everyone will see him. Some will purposely come to know him.
For My people, there will be much persecution, much speculation, much war, much famine, and the thing you desire most, your MAMMON, will be taken from you!
Some of your hearts wax so cold. You sing to me and pray to me, yet you do not do what I have commanded. Do you not know? Is it not apparent that the just will live by faith? That the smallest sin will not enter into My Kingdom?
Time is growing dim and I come quickly. Be aware of your surroundings at all times. Some of you have no oil in your lamps. You are not ready.
I tell you now, be ready at ALL times! Forgive one another. Do NOT bare false witness against another. Keep your tongue in check. Do good. Help those less fortunate. Do NOT let anything become an idol. Pray for each other and occupy. Spend more time with Me, so you will know the things of My heart and what I want to say. Surround yourselves with those of like faith who speak forth the truth with an uncompromising spirit. Hold fast to the truth, in one spirit.
I come with My rewards, and will I find faith?
To all those that I love, do I chasten.
Interpretation:
The understanding I was given about a bell tolling was a warning of danger or disaster, like a funeral or death.
Several years ago, I used to hear bells ringing. Even my husband and some of the people we invited into our home would hear them. It usually meant something was about to happen, but the tolling I am hearing today is completely different, much heavier than anything I have heard before. It is just like mourning and death, which could mean the death of America.
I believe this is a significant warning of something taking place soon because I was told, “This is a NOW word.”
Scriptures:
For whom the Lord loveth He chasteneth,and scourgeth every son whom He receiveth. (Hebrews 12:6)
As many as I love,I rebuke and chasten;be zealous therefore and repent. (Revelation 3:19)
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosphy and vain deceit,after the tradition of men,after the rudiments of the world,and not after Christ. (Colossians 3:8)
To hearken to the words of my servants the prophets,whom I sent unto you,both rising up early,and sending them,but ye have not hearkened. (Jeremiah 26:5)
Jesus wept. (John 11:35)

Amen Linda. I am SO encouraged by the believers I can fellowship with through Z3News and your blog. I’m so thankful for it!
I have felt for sometime the Lord has speaking to me to pray to find like-minded people. That it is becoming increasingly important to associate with, pray with and learn from like-minded people. Sadly, they may not (probably won’t) be in church. In truth, I have found more on Facebook, sites like this one, my brazilian jui-jitsu class and may daughter’s dance class than in church. Regardless, surround yourself with people on the same mission as you. My mission is to warn, educate and evangelize as many as possible.
I like that mission Ken. It would be nice if we were all in one place, but I am very thankful to connect with like minded people. It sounds like many of us are experiencing similar circumstances, being considered crazy by family and friends.
Oh yes. . . So true, James. We have a “virtual church” here, on Z3News, I believe. There’s a developing small “home group” on my blog, which I refer to as my “virtual home”. There are others that are likely finding fellowship is now more in the virtual world than in the “real world”.
Why I believe this is happening? The LORD is positioning His “remnant” in strategic areas/places, to help others in these final days. Sure we all want to be in one spot, as like-minded believers, but then who would bring the truth of what is taking place if we are all in one spot?
Definitely……
It would be nice to be together in one place, physically for just once for a few hours to pray in the Holy Spirit
and to worship Jesus.
I think it would be VERY POWERFUL!!!
I agree Peggy! That would be amazing.
Last night I awakened from a dream of being on a bus with a lot of folk when overhead much turmoil began in the sky just above our heads! Planes. Big planes. Odd looking planes. Fearsome planes. It was in preparation for battle, a fearsome battle. I felt we in dire harms way. 3 other ladies and I began to shout..”I plead the Blood of Jesus! I plead the Blood of Jesus! I plead the Blood of Jesus!’ Everyone else were silent in fear and many looking at us as if we were crackpots yet not sure. Finally, the planes were gone. Then i asked, “I wonder why this was happening HERE?!” Someone said, “Because there’s a military base nearby.”
Lottie,
I think the dreams or visions are intensifying and so are the things going on around us…..Evil is growing stronger ,but our God has the victory….all the time
Yesterday morning 12/13/15, after praying, reading the bible and listening to a sermon on the radio i started to think about all the recent and past prophetic warnings about the coming WW3. Patricia Green and others have said it will last 5 years, Terry Bennet has said that the fall of America will happen in 2021 i.e when Russia nukes the U.S, Cutting Edge ministries have just released a Dvd called ‘World War III: History’s
Greatest Lynchpin Event’, Stan Johnson of the Prophecy Club shows in his Dvd ‘2014-2021’ that billions worldwide will die, …… Hmmm… Something to think about .
KC ,thank you……..Remembering ,He that is in us is GREATER than he that is in the world….We are safe in Him,(Jesus)but we are in a spiritual battle,,,,,,,
Phil 1:6 Being confident of this very thing,that he which hath begun a good work in you,will perform it until the
day of Jesus Christ…..GB

This is an excellent message by Pastor Carter
Thanks for your prayers. Going to be a difficult time.
Matthew,please read what i put down below in a reply to KC……….Difficult though it will be,Jesus will bring us through to victory,,,,,,,,continue the race to the end…….GB
Matthew Eph3:20 Now unto Him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that WE ask or think
according to the Power that works in us! We don,t have to worry its HIS POWER and I am asking also for
you and spouse! Good word Bette, love your GBs! GB you also!
I will also pray for you and your wife Matthew
I will pray right now for you and your wife Matthew.
Anyone that sees this post tonight… Please pray for my wife, Cindy, and myself.
Will do. I’m pleading the Blood of Jesus over both you you.
Hi Matthew
I will be praying……I sense fear,maybe not in you,but I have sensed it in many of God’s people for a long time…..
We need to know that God is with us now,will be with us whatever in the future and will never leave us nor forsake us….Hebrews 13:5-6
Perfect love will cast out fear…1John 4:18
Father we lift up before you Mathew ,his wife and we ask you to give them perfect peace within,a rest in you Lord,a deep cleansing and healing within the body…….Let the oil of joy be poured out upon them and complete .healing,restoration and refreshing take place in Jesus mighty name,Amen…….
Hi Matthew, I don’t know if you got my previous message but I’m in the same situation with my husband. Please read I Corinthians 7:12-16. It has helped me and I hope it helps you too. I’m praying for you brother! God Bless you!!
seems to be catching matt – im on the ropes as well
All, Thanks for your prayers. She is basically pushing for a divorce. Tracy, I will pray for you as well. She claims to be saved, but has no desire to seek counsel with God’s word or obey Jesus. She has fallen under the deception common in the Churches. Praying for you all as well.
Matthew,
My first impression is: Is there really time to go through a divorce procedure right now? Time is so short.
Perhaps you could put this off. I wonder if there would even be time to go through a divorce procedure. If push comes to shove, a trial separation may be better, for the time. For one thing, I sense it’s best for us to have as little distractions as possible, and focus on pressing into JESUS and spending time with HIM.
At any rate, please speak out the Scripture Promises over your life and situation. SEEK HIM on your own, and NEVER GIVE UP. HE will use even this situation!
Matthew,
I am sorry to hear that and for anyone else.the enemy has its hold on marriages…..because of the new same sex marriage……..I wanted you to know that…PLease inbox me if you or your wife would like to talk with my husband or I …..We do marriage counseling…..
That’s interesting and very good to be aware of, Bette……with the enemy’s hold on marriages……
Peggy ,yes it is a strong hold

I FEEL LED TO SHARE THIS IF- YOU FEEL IT IS NOT FOR YOU PUT IT ASIDE THAT IS BETWEN YOU AND THE LORD……
I READ IT AND IT FILLED IN A MISSING LINK TO SOMETHING THE LORD SHOWED ME IN 2003.
Pray and if you feel it is of the Lord read.

My reason for sharing I was also given a mission in 2003. sadly I moved before I was told. my mission was. Isaiah 58. and now is my time to run…
Isaiah 58New King James Version (NKJV)
Fasting that Pleases God
58 “Cry aloud, spare not;
Lift up your voice like a trumpet;
Tell My people their transgression,
And the house of Jacob their sins.
2 Yet they seek Me daily,
And delight to know My ways,
As a nation that did righteousness,
And did not forsake the ordinance of their God.
They ask of Me the ordinances of justice;
They take delight in approaching God.
3 ‘Why have we fasted,’ they say, ‘and You have not seen?
Why have we afflicted our souls, and You take no notice?’
“In fact, in the day of your fast you find pleasure,
And exploit all your laborers.
4 Indeed you fast for strife and debate,
And to strike with the fist of wickedness.
You will not fast as you do this day,
To make your voice heard on high.
5 Is it a fast that I have chosen,
A day for a man to afflict his soul?
Is it to bow down his head like a bulrush,
And to spread out sackcloth and ashes?
Would you call this a fast,
And an acceptable day to the Lord?
6 “Is this not the fast that I have chosen:
To loose the bonds of wickedness,
To undo the heavy burdens,
To let the oppressed go free,
And that you break every yoke?
7 Is it not to share your bread with the hungry,
And that you bring to your house the poor who are cast out;
When you see the naked, that you cover him,
And not hide yourself from your own flesh?
8 Then your light shall break forth like the morning,
Your healing shall spring forth speedily,
And your righteousness shall go before you;
The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.
9 Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer;
You shall cry, and He will say, ‘Here I am.’
“If you take away the yoke from your midst,
The pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness,
10 If you extend your soul to the hungry
And satisfy the afflicted soul,
Then your light shall dawn in the darkness,
And your darkness shall be as the noonday.
11 The Lord will guide you continually,
And satisfy your soul in drought,
And strengthen your bones;
You shall be like a watered garden,
And like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.
12 Those from among you
Shall build the old waste places;
You shall raise up the foundations of many generations;
And you shall be called the Repairer of the Breach,
The Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.
13 “If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath,
From doing your pleasure on My holy day,
And call the Sabbath a delight,
The holy day of the Lord honorable,
And shall honor Him, not doing your own ways,
Nor finding your own pleasure,
Nor speaking your own words,
14 Then you shall delight yourself in the Lord;
And I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth,
And feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father.
The mouth of the Lord has spoken.”
One of the last omens before the defeat of the Zuricher’s was a violent storm and earthquake on the evening before the fateful day:
“It was a fearful night. The thick darkness — a violent storm — the alarmbell ringing from every steeple
— the people running to arms — the noise of swords and guns — the sound of trumpets and of drums,
combined with the roaring of the tempest, the distrust, discontent, and even treason, which spread
affliction in every quarter — the sobs of women and of children — the cries which accompanied many
a heart-rending adieu — an earthquake which occurred about nine o’clock at night, as if nature herself
had shuddered at the blood that was about to be spilt, and which violently shook the mountains
and the valleys: all increased the terrors of this fatal night, — a night to be followed by a still
more fatal day.”
I can’t remember ever having a dream about earthquakes in my life but I had two in a row the last two nights.
Hi Mark
Those hate gruesome omens,but we can;t stop it,,,,,,,We have had mercy for so long and extended periods of time to get right with the Lord,and then we want more time when we think something is coming,but yet all prophecy is being fulfilled now at an earth shattering rate……..
I also remember a very short dream I had and in that dream,I was with some people,and we were walking,and all of sudden right behind us we heard this loud noise, and when I turned to look ,there was a huge hole all the way across for miles,later on I realized it was the Madrid Line had opened up and I saw whole cities,people fall in…..
Wow, Bette, regarding your very short dream.
I agree about time. We’ve had since the early 1960’s when prayer and Bible reading was taken out of the public schools. Then, we’ve had since 1973— (42 WHOLE YEARS) to stand up to the abomination of the murder of the unborn. I really think the Lord has been more than merciful.
Bette your word of the ominous bell tolling reminded me of the harbingers the Lord sent to the Swiss Protestants before the disastrous battle that took the life of Zwingli and many others. The battle took place on October 11, 1531. A little less than three months earlier the Lord began sending omens of what lay ahead. The first major omen according to the historian D’Aubigne was this one below which is so gruesome that I’ve hesitated to post:
“On the 26th July, a widow chancing to be alone before her house, in the village of Castelenschloss,
suddenly beheld a frightful spectacle — blood springing from the earth all around her. She
rushed in alarm into the cottage……but, oh horrible! blood is flowing everywhere — from the wainscot
and from the stones; — it falls in a stream from a basin on a shelf, and even the child’s cradle
overflows with it. The woman imagines that the invisible hand of an assassin has been at work, and
rushes in distraction out of doors, crying murder! murder! The villagers and the monks of a
neighboring convent assemble at the noise — the succeed in partly effacing the bloody stains; but a
little later in the day, the other inhabitants of the house, sitting down in terror to eat their evening meal
under the projecting eaves, suddenly discover blood bubbling up in a pond — blood flowing from the
loft — blood covering all the walls of the house.” History of the Protestant Reformation p 1560.
In the remaining weeks leading up to the battle several more supernatural omens appeared. What strikes me about all of this is how closely the Lord identifies with us during human disasters and wars. He not only feels our pain, he anticipates it. I picture the blood oozing from the ground, the stones of the house and the walls etc as a message to us that His heart bleeds for us when these things transpire.
Amen, good Word!
God gave me a message this past Wednesday (12-9), during my time of fasting/praying. He said that “war & famine” are coming.
He then said to tell His people to: “purify themselves, put on white robes/garments washed in the blood of the Lamb. Cry out to ME and I will hear their cry and gather them as a hen gathers her chicks” (this phrase was also in a message He gave me 2 years ago, exact words)
God then said “It is done: there’s no stopping (analogous to a train leaving the station and can’t turn around), only one-by-one/soul-by-soul salvation (no more petitioning for the whole nation)”.
He gave me a bunch of Scriptures in confirmation:
– Deut. 6
– I Sam 19
– Ezek 19
– Habakkuk 2
– 2 Thess. 1:8-10
After all this, I had a really quick vision of God’s hand pressing down the button on a large stopwatch, in order to start it, with a voice saying “I’ve started and time is ticking”.
The last thing God said, was in a very loud voice, as if shouting to make Himself heard, “I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD WHO BROUGHT YOU OUT OF EGYPT!”
Awesome words Mark! Thanks.
POWERFUL WORD. indeed, the clock is ticking.
Great word Mark ! Thanks for sharing.
Mark,
Thanks for that word,,,,,Indeed the clock is ticking,,,,I saw a HUGE time clock several years ago…….Time on the other side is very different than our time……..It is up to each one of us now to be right with God and stay right……..GB
Amen Bette,
The level of mercy He has shown and extended to us in these days should make us all fall on our faces in gratitude and humility before our Just and Most Holy Father God….
Karin,amen
Too ALL<
I especially want to make reference to the last Scripture I posted up above to John 11:35 Two small words that carry a powerful impact “Jesus wept”; That really impacted me when I was writing this word up…..Jesus is weeping over the arrogance of this nation and of the world…….
May I only say with complete sorrow,,,,,May you forgive us Lord and may we show mercy on others where mercy has been given to us…..
Bette,
I love your boldness and zeal to share what the Lord impresses upon you. When I talk to you or watch your videos the fire in your belly that is manifested encourages and strengthens my resolve to continue to speak God’s warnings. May the Holy Fire spread rapidly and increasingly amongst us all.
Karin
Thank you..I intend and hope to keep this boldness because the Lord has told me I must bring hard warnings and they are going to increase.GB
If we start forming an opinion we need to check ourselves.
If our hearts are right slander and manipulation will not bother us.
Jesus did not wilt under all the slander he had heaped on Him.
Soon, we as Christians will be blamed for things that God is using to judge our nation. How are we going to act and react? I personally have a lot of heart surgery that need to be done. Go with GOD alone!!!
God has helped me after listening to this to put aside so many opinions that hindered my key relationships. I am so much freer now.
This link is on how Christians who do not have control of their tongues are practicing witchcraft. Glynda is from wingsofprophecy.com. This tells us why not to form opinions. It leads straight to us judging the person.

Marilee,thank you,,,,What you mentioned in your post above here ,another thing people may want to think about is it can lead to baring false witness,,,,,,We are to judge only spiritually……..
When you are tempted make a fast offering, “Jesus, I offer you this temptation which I have chosen not to follow, for one sinner at the brink of hell, that they will be reached with your love and redemption. Rather I am choosing out of love for You, that which I know will please You.”
Here’s a testimony from heartdwellers.org
‘In my early morning time with Jesus today, I prayed more earnestly than ever before, renouncing and repenting of certain besetting sins, with many tears. I cried out to the Lord that I’m not worthy to be taken in the Rapture. . . I’m not worthy that Jesus should come forme.
Jesus replied, ‘Do not listen to the lies of the devil. I know you are in fear of missing Me. Renounce, repent, and bind away that fear. It grieves Me to see you in this fearful state of confusion: one day you are at peace about My coming, the next day you are deeply troubled and spending time thinking this thing and that thing – instead of resting in Me, spending the time with Me. I am waiting for you to come to Me, My beloved Bride. Do not grieve Me in this way. I long for your fellowship and I wait for you.
He continued: ‘In your world, could a bride marry her bridegroom if she doubted his words to her and did not believe his promises? Of course not! You know that My Word is true and that I AM the Truth. I cannot go against My nature.’
I realized that spirits of doubt, unbelief, fear and confusion were attacking and deceiving me. I went quickly to the Throne of Grace to receive mercy and find grace to help in my time of need.
What a welcome I found there!
Jesus said: ‘Many of My children are in turmoil at this time, and it grieves Me.’
Me: ‘When, oh when, will I be free of all this sin? How long till I become like You, my Precious Lord? I hate what I see in me; it drove You to the cross to die there in my place. When will I finally be free, Lord?’
Jesus replied, ‘You will not be totally free of it as long as you live on this earth. But I see your deep longing to be free, and your commitment to repent seriously from your heart, and I accept that, My Bride.’
Me: ‘Thank You, my Beloved Lord, for Your mercy and grace. Thank You with all my heart.’

Marilee,
Thank you for sharing……….GB
I received much the same message this week. Thank you for sharing Marilee. LORD bless.
An awesome word, thanks. This is me too.
Thanks Marilee for sharing. My wife at this point has determined to rip our family apart and bring much turmoil and confusion to our four children. She claims to be a ‘saved’, but will not repent and is choosing another sinful course of action because of her unrepentant heart. I know that I also am not free of sin yet. As you shared in your post, the Lord desires us to seek Him. “You will not be totally free of it as long as you live on this earth. But I see your deep longing to be free, and your commitment to repent seriously from your heart, and I accept that, My Bride.”
Thanks for sharing. I read it this morning and I began crying.
Mathew, I have had the same experience with my wife and four children. Out of the blue my wife demanded a divorce after 22 years of marriage. I met her in church and she was a serious Christian and I think she still believes she is but the Devil is very clever at deceiving people and destroying marriages. Jesus did predict this would happen in the last days, wives turning on husbands and children against their parents. God certainly doesn’t cause these things but there is a separation happening between the sheep and the goats.
Matthew and Robert,
I would recommend contacting Bette Stevens, the author of this article. I would bet she could give you some Divine insight and direction for your situations. She has a post below. Just click on her name in Blue to the right of her picture. It will take you to her web-site, and from there, you can find an easy contact form.
Don’t carry this burden alone! God Bless.
Thanks Peggy. I will contact Bette. GB
Thank you Bette.
Donna,amen
Bette – Last night I woke up to hearing crying that sounded muted. I went to check on my children but they were all sound asleep and I continued to hear the crying. As I read your post this morning, I realize that what I was hearing almost sounded animal like in nature. I feel like it was a crying-out in the spiritual that was and is occurring.
Rachel
Yes ,God wants to get our attention in whatever way he needs to…….Refer back up to John11:35 GB
Wow, Rachel….
Sobering and truthful Word, here, Bette. May ALL who read this post, have a clean walk with Jesus, because a day is coming when the “and suddenly” will propel a multitude of people into eternity .. . . Ready or not.
Linda,
With all the warnings and all about the calamities,I would say I sure hope that people are propelled to prepare there hearts and not to do nothing,,,,,,
The Book of Lamentations mourns the destruction of Jerusalem… but this post warns us to prepare and lament for the coming destruction of America. On the Jewish calendar, the “the ninth of Av” is associated with the Book of Lamentations… Both Jewish temples were destroyed on that Hebrew calendar date. This year on the western calendar, the “ninth of Av” commences on August 13th, 2016. Bette gave this as a NOW word… so perhaps America only has from now to a climatic event in August. I am not date setting… but the post just had a heavy “ninth of Av” tone to me as I read it… and we are facing judgment type events.
Lamentations 1:1–2 (NIV)
1 How deserted lies the city, once so full of people! How like a widow is she, who once was great among the nations! She who was queen among the provinces has now become a slave.
2 Bitterly she weeps at night, tears are upon her cheeks. Among all her lovers there is none to comfort her. All her friends have betrayed her; they have become her enemies.
Wiley
Thank you…you could be right about the time in August….I was not given any specific times ,only that the word given was for now…..
Wiley, this “ninth of Av” on August 13th, 2016 you mentioned would be the perfect date for something big to happen. Obama could declare Martial Law, suspend the November elections and stay in power. The timing seems right.? Just my 2 cents.
