A prophetic word over the USA by Matthew Robert Payne

I am the great One that died on a cross to save mankind from sin. I died to give man not only salvation but Power over sin and death. I am grieved in my heart to see the hold sin has over so many of My people.

This year I am calling forth My people into a walk that denies themselves. I am calling my people to give. Not only to sow money into the Kingdom, but to give Me time. I call My people to seek Me in the morning and throughout the day and again at night. I am calling My people to deny themselves time in front of their computer and TV’s and spend that time in communion with Myself and the Father.

Time draws near to the climax of all things. Time is growing short. This is not time to be investing in stocks and bonds. This is time to be investing in things that are in heaven. This is the time of abundance so that people can sow into good soil and further My kingdom.

It’s so hard to have My people to trust Me in finances. So few of My people tithe to Me what I am due. So many people spend more on entertainment each week then on My kingdom. I cry real tears as people who could have known Me die without the Gospel.

I am the God of liberty. I am the Lord of many people’s lives. These people that treat Me as Lord of their life are sold out to Me. With their time. With their character, with their love for others and with their money.

I seek teachers, I seek preachers that will write My truth down and share it with the world. I seek prophets to speak My word with faith and with boldness. I seek apostles to bring My Church back to a zeal that they had in the days of the Early church.

Do you trust me reader?

Do you think I will speak to you if you listen?

Do you want to serve Me with all your heart and all your gifts?

Do you know less than 5% of people in My Body, the church actually know and walk in their spiritual gifts that I have given them? Do you know that although my churches in the West think they are rich, they are poor and lukewarm?

Wake up my people!

Learn to walk by faith

Learn to live on 90% of your income.

Learn to give to the poor and to give to those people that ask you for money.

Learn to obey Me and turn the other cheek.

Learn to forgive

Practice walking in My presence.

Start to pray with faith, not for things that don’t last, but for things that are going to prosper My kingdom.

Start to sow into the third world. Sow to pastors and apostles and prophets in the East. Send your money to the poorer nations of the world.

Start to deny yourself and take up your cross. You know that it is true when I said those that try and save their life will lose it. It is also true when I said that those that lose their life on account of Me will save it.

I want My people to be known as people that love others through self denial.

I want My people to give. Not out of any notion that they will get back. I want them to sow into the third world and among the poor and destitute in their own cities and do it out of love for Me.

There is real treasure in heaven. People who live a life of self denial on earth, people who carry the cross of Christ and suffer for My sake on earth really do get greater rewards in heaven.

The Christian life should be marked with love and self denial, not some prosperity living that some people preach and make popular to people with itching ears.

I am coming quickly and I am going to judge. Before the Great Day of the Lord there will be much suffering on earth, but as a righteous judge I will protect those that have been serving Me.

Tough times are coming financially to the world. You are not always going to have prosperity. A dark time is coming and in those times the people that live by faith will wax strong.

The world is dark now. My light is not as strong and My people are sick and going to doctors and living self dependant lives, not lives that really need me for support.

In the East they don’t have the money for doctors and medicine and sometimes the prayer of faith is all they have to recover and My anointing heals them. In the West however you have a pill for everything and you will reach for a painkiller before you ask Me to take away your headache.

I am a God that knows your heart. I know those who honor Me with their lips and whose hearts are far from Me. When the times of judgment fall on the earth, very soon the tares and the wheat will separate. I will take the tares and throw them into the fire.

I know all the true doctrine in the world. I am aware of every truth in every church and every false doctrine. I can tell you that there is a lot of error being preached and false teachers are alive and making a lot of money in ministry today all around the world.

These false teachers have million dollar houses and they have My anointing to heal and they can cast out demons, but their hearts have strayed from Me and their God is their belly and their lifestyle.

I can save millions of people through a teacher whose heart has strayed from Me. Is it not My right? Doesn’t My Word still have the power to save? Shouldn’t My anointing still have the power to heal the sick and cast out demons and do all sorts of signs and wonders?

Of course. I could name names. I could tell you men of God right here and now that if they continue in their unrepentant lifestyle that they will not inherit eternal life. They will be cut off and thrown into the fire.

These are the people that will say to Me on that day. “Lord, Lord, but didn’t we prophesy and cast out demons and do many signs and wonders in your name.” And I will say to them depart from Me you who practice lawlessness.

Don’t you see people? When you are sinning and not repenting for your sin how can I forgive you? If some false teacher has taught you to sin and made your lifestyle of idolatry to money and wealth acceptable to you and you continue in that way with money as your master, both you and your teacher will go to hell.

Let me be frank here and repeat myself.

You can only serve one master. You cannot serve money and God.

You think it is easy for the rich to inherit eternal life?

How many camels have you seen pass through the eye of a needle?

My apostles wondered how a rich man could possibly enter heaven. I told them it was possible with God.

But a wealthy man who was in love with God and not his money would be giving Me a lot of His money. He would be giving more then 20% of his weekly income.

You see when I become important in your life and you really have my heart for your fellow man, you want to use your money for My kingdom.

You won’t be sending your money to a prosperity preacher who already has houses worth millions of dollars and luxury cars. You’d be sending a hundred dollars to a pastor in India so he can buy a bicycle and preach to more people in his week. You won’t be sending your money to a Christian TV station that only Christians watch, you’ll be supporting an evangelist in Africa that is saving millions of Africans.

Reinhardt Bonkke is quoted as saying, “I would rather be a millionaire in souls then in money.” Now that’s a guy that won’t be wasting your money on his material wealth.

Why am I harping on so much about money?

Because you can only have one Master!

If your Master is Me then you will do what I said. I said he that wants to follow after me, must deny himself and take up his cross daily.

Do you deny yourself anything for the sake of the gospel?

Do you really?

Even you people who faithfully tithe 10% of your income, are you really denying yourself as much as you could?

The world needs saving. I have people in every country working faithfully for Me. Matthew knows an apostle that needs over a hundred churches built. He already has congregations of up to a hundred people for the churches but he hasn’t the money to build them. He is in India . One man that I raised up who has planted 300 churches in the poor villages of India .

I have hundreds of men just like him in India . Hundreds of people that need money just like him. Not money to live, but money to do my work. Money that won’t be wasted on wages but will be used for building places of worship.

Some people don’t consider that I have emotion. Some in the West would think that I am a happy Jesus sitting here in heaven with all the poverty and disease in the world and all the people going to hell each day. Some people can’t imagine that My Father and I weep for the people of the world. As I intercede for certain people I weep in front of My Father.

If I were to tell you to seek one thing this year, I would tell you to seek my presence. Seek to walk in the Spirit and to know my abiding presence. Life in the world is going to get slowly tougher. More and more false teachers are getting raised up in this hour and the world and churches are chanting peace, peace, when there is no peace.

I implore you to give to the poor. I implore you to reach out to the brokenhearted. I have said it once, but I will say it again. When you have a party and invite your friends over for dinner, go and get a poor homeless person that can’t pay you back and bring them to your party to and you will be rewarded in heaven.

You can live in My peace on earth. You can live in my will. You can live on 80% of your income. You can make a difference in the world. You can discover your spiritual gift this year and walk in it. You can make the world a better place. You can afford to support a pastor and buy him a bicycle. You can support a third world church. You can do anything in My name.

I would rather you be an atheist and dead against Me than be a lukewarm Christian who is not hot for Me. I would rather you not even know My name then to turn away a beggar who can see My light on your face and bring my name into disrepute. I would rather the church have less teachers of the Word and more prayer warriors.

I am pleading with you. Give Me your time. Give Me your obedience. Give my people in the East, My money. For if I am your God, you should be serving Me with all of your heart and mind and strength.

This year I will be raising up a lot of people who are called into full time ministry. A lot of these have not been to college and are only trained by My Holy Spirit. These people will have gems of knowledge and wisdom, secrets given to them by myself. Secrets like the one I gave you about who are the people that will say Lord. Lord to me on the Day of Judgment.

Be at peace.

Love Jesus
