A message for Yemen, a Warning to the Houthi

When a topic for consideration is at the forefront of my thoughts and prayers, I sometimes am moved by the Spirit and by the Holy Scriptures to recognize a message that flows from the well source of both. Last week while on a walk through a dirty little village here in east Africa I began to receive such a message. Over the course of the next few days while studying scripture and in prayer, more of the message began to come off the pages of my bible and the two came together to form the message you see below. Over the years I have worked to develop a discernment and have learned to test the Spirit to ensure that it is indeed the Spirit of God who is speaking. I have also learned when to speak and when to remain silent until He says when to speak any given message.

The job of the prophetic is not to glorify the prophet or any man, with promises of worldly possessions or riches. The prophetic is not to tickle ears for profit, gain or any kind of advancement. The job of the prophetic is to bring correction, guidance, hope, warning, rebuke and remedy in truth. The process of the prophetic is for the glorification of God and the salvation of His people.

In the Old Testament scriptures, we find testimonies of when the kingdoms of men are moved to repentance by the word of the prophet and through such find blessing and salvation in a return to God and His ways, such as in the case of Jonah and Nineveh in the book of Jonah.

Sometimes we find where people refuse to hear the words of the prophet and their refusal leads to their demise, such as in the case of Jerimiah, Israel and Jerusalem in the book of Jerimiah and in the book of 2^nd Kings.

Sometimes we see rulers purposefully surrounding themselves with false prophets because they would rather hear lies that make them feel good instead of the truth that shines a light on their wickedness and requires them to change. Such as in the case of Ahab and Micaiah in the first book of the Kings.

1^st Kings 22: 7-8

And Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord besides, that we might enquire of him? And the king of Israel said unto Jehoshaphat, There is yet one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may enquire of the Lord: but I hate him; for he doth not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. And Jehoshaphat said, Let not the king say so.

Now the Lord knows better than any other where He has me and what paths He is leading me on with regards to the appointed ministry He has placed on my heart and in my hands. He knows that with this, one Nation that occupies much of my thoughts and prayers is the Nation of Yemen. Given this, I believe He has spoken a message to me regarding this nation and that message is as follows.

 

A message for Yemen, a Warning to the Houthi.

I have heard the cry of the people of Yemen, the women for their children and the men for their women and children. Not much longer will your suffering be prolonged says the Lord God of Israel. I am moving against the evil that is causing your suffering. I am moving against the principalities powers and rulers of darkness of this world and the spiritual wickedness in high places. I am moving against the scourge that is called the Houthi. By little and little will I drive them out from before you. Not because they have come against the nation of Israel but because they have come against my people in Yemen and have caused them suffering, death and destruction. The Houthi have shed innocent blood and they have defiled my land. In the name of their false god they have waged war against my lost people of Yemen and my nature. Because they have caused my innocent children to thirst and have contaminated my waters, their water shall be contaminated and they shall thirst, because they have defiled the land and what I have created for the people’s sustenance and caused my innocent children to hunger, they shall hunger and die in hunger. They have kindled my anger, they shall be devoured and many evils and troubles shall befall the Houthi. Absent repentance, they shall be burnt with hunger and devoured with burning heat and with burning destruction. All the weapons they have used for destruction will be used against them, to free my people, avenge their sufferings and cause the Houthi their own destruction. All of this will be done and many evils and troubles shall befall them; so that they will say in that day, are not these evils come upon us, because our god is not among us? This will I do so that the people of Yemen will know that I, Yehovah, the God of Israel is their God and that they the people of Yemen are my people. If you come close to me, and honor my ways, I will come close to you and bless you.
