Know
These Forces
Part Two
by Wayne Dailey
Senior
Pastor,
February 24, 1988
The Lord spoke to me on this date:
The evil forces will fight, and the awful
battle will continue on until the very end, when I come to put down and destroy
all those wicked and evil forces – and reign over My
kingdom and over My people.
Christ Will Destroy These Wicked
Yes, Christ will destroy these wicked and evil forces at His
coming. We can take courage in this, and
know that we can be more than conquerors through Him.
March 1, 1988
On this date, the Lord said to me:
My Son, I want you to know the modern
wicked and evil forces that fight to destroy My Church and My people. Many *intellectual and *arrogant
men who sit in high places control schools of theology. They are raising up a
new generation.
Their Work
Their work is to deny the truth - men of
corrupt minds; men who hold not the truth, who have not the truth. These deny the same things as always: My
miraculous birth; My shed blood; and My resurrection
from the dead. The things they deny are
the same as in past times.
Their Ways
Their ways have changed. They are very intellectual and learned in
their way: and very subtle. Their
influence over men is much greater than it was in other generations.
They not only teach these damnable
doctrines, but cast their awful influence into the hearts of those that hear
them. They are raising
up a whole new brand, or group, of deceivers.
*Intellectual:
· an intellectual person;
· developed or chiefly by the intellect;
· engaged in activity requiring the creative
use of the intellect
*Arrogant:
· to exaggerate one’s own worth or
importance
THE VISION OF THE INNOCENT LOOKING WATER
The Lord gave me a vision some years before this, and then
referred to that vision here in 1988. Here
is what I saw:
Have you ever been by the ocean on a calm day,
when the water is real smooth? One wave
after another gently rolls in, thinning out until it has vanished to nothing. And, as you look out, still another wave
calmly rolls towards the shore.
Well, this is what I saw in this vision. What did a calm ocean have to do with my early
morning prayer meeting? As I stood pondering this vision, God spoke to
me: Satan is beginning to do a new work in the world that is more subtle -
more subtle - more subtle than anything he has ever done.
Anyone who felt like wading wouldn’t have
hesitated to walk right into that calm water. But, when the Lord spoke to me, I looked
closer: anyone who was drawn to walk in that innocent looking water was
suddenly caught in an undertow that pulled them right under.
The Lord then told me, It looks so
innocent, but the undertow will pull you right under – and once it gets a hold
of you, it won’t let you go.
Now I could understand what God was trying to show me. That water looked so innocent, so peaceful and
calm. It looked so normal, without any
appearance of being treacherous. It
didn’t look like somebody would be suddenly sucked under by an undertow and be
carried away, without being able to get out from underneath. It didn’t look that way – yes it was. And that’s the subtle way Satan is working,
to cause things to look so innocent that will suck you under if you wade in.
Wow, when the Lord spoke to me in 1988, He went on to refer to
this vision of the innocent looking water:
I showed you the vision of the innocent
looking water with the feeling to walk right in. This is like the subtle work Satan is
doing. Those who feel compelled to
accept these damnable doctrines wade right in, not knowing the awful undertow
that is in the water – and they are pulled under, never able to get out.
All those who accept this damnable
doctrine of the rejection of Christ and His sacrifice will be lost forever – without
hope, with no chance to ever repent.
The Word Of God Is Under Attack
The attack of these men and women is
against those who were inspired to write the Word of God. They speak evil of those dignitaries of old,
and of their writings. They dare to
challenge the Scriptures of Truth. They
don’t accept the inspiration of the Word of God.
They are of the spirit of antichrist: and,
like the antichrist, they attack those in heaven.
They are the architects and engineers of
the *falling away of the church, the rise of the antichrist.
An Attack Against The Church From Within
The course of events of the end of the age
is an attack against the Church from within – to destroy those who believe in
Jesus and in the Word of Truth.
These wicked and evil forces work under
this spirit of antichrist to promote these awful doctrines of Satan. They will cause the Church to suffer this great
*falling away, and to support the rise of the antichrist in this world.

PROPHETIC MESSAGES MARCH 7 AND 19, 1988
On this date, the Lord said:
I want you to see how men wrest the
Scripture. Many men wrest them unto
their own destruction.
It is very important that every word be established
in truth. And it is important that
you establish every word in truth, because you are saying ‘God said’!
(see II Peter 3:15-17 and II Peter 1:12)
The Temptation Of
Jesus
(See Matt 4:1-11and II Tim 2:15)
My son, in the temptation of Jesus, you
see a very good example of rightly dividing the Word of Truth. My son, learn to stand on the truth; learn to
anchor yourself in the truth, and to stand on it. My salvation is founded on the Scriptures of
truth. My grace and mercy are also
founded on the Scriptures of truth.
Search The Scriptures
Search the Scriptures John 5:39
Men wrest the Scriptures unto their own
destruction II Peter
3:16
I am the way, the truth, and the life John 14:6
Let every word be established in truth Matthew 18:16
Message given March 7, 1988 continued
All teaching that denies the Scriptures is
antichrist. All teaching that wrests the
Scriptures about Me and My coming is antichrist.
It is very important to compare all
teaching with the Scripture: Many common teachings of the day don’t compare with the Scripture
(hereby know we the Spirit of truth and the spirit of
error).
When I speak unto you, it can be verified
with the Scriptures of truth. Men make
very grave errors because they listen to the spirit of error, and don’t compare
what they hear with the Scriptures.
My son, open both of your eyes and both of
your ears, and behold what you see and hear: and perceive in your heart. Compare what you see and hear with the
Scriptures.
March 19, 1988
On this date, the Lord said to me:
My son, draw near
unto the Lord your God, and give ear to what I shall say unto you! Draw near!
A Massive Upheaval
You are going to hear of a *massive *upheaval;
a massive trembling. And it’s going to
seem like it’s never going to end.
My son, these wicked and evil forces that are unleashed in the world, that fight against the
church and God’s people to destroy – these evil forces are surveying and
plotting and planning. They are
surveying the happening of the past months. It is as it was in the days when Peter and
John went down unto the city of
*Massive:
· Bulky;
· weighty;
· impressive
*Upheaval:
· The act or state of being raised or
overturned, especially a raising of the earth’s crust;
· a violent turmoil
(See Acts 8:14-24)
Now when the apostles which were at
Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them
Peter and John: who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: (for as yet
he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the
Lord Jesus.)
Then laid they their hands on them, and
they received the Holy Ghost.
Simon Offers Money To
Receive The Gift Of God
And when Simon saw that through laying on
of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, saying,
Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the
Holy Ghost.
But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of
God may be purchased with money.
This was done to bring corruption into the
early Church. These
wicked and evil forces who are surveying the happening of the past months are
plotting and planning to bring this power of *sorcery into the Church to
corrupt it.
*Sorcery:
· magic;
· performance of tricks with pretended help
from evil spirits;
· witchcraft
Simon the Sorcerer (Acts 8: 9 -11):
· Boasted of being some great one
· Used sorcery to bewitch the people
· Held as a great power of God
August 1988 -
What The Lord Showed Me
Now, in this same year (1988) after the Lord gave me this message,
Time Magazine had a very strange picture on the front cover of the August 15th
issue. Inside the magazine there were
eight pages of blaspheming Jesus Christ, with a write-up entitled A Holy
Furor, which stated – a new sensational movie hits the theaters and causes
a holy furor based upon a 1955 best selling novel: The Last Temptation of
Christ.
The cover picture was as follows:
A mans face: designed like a cross, blocked out in
blocks one and a half inches by one; and one inch by one and a quarter inches.
This man’s eyes and the bridge of his nose
were in three of the blocks of the cross arms.
Across his left cheek and his nose and the
block where his right cheek would have been was a plaque with the inscription
WHO WAS, and his mouth was in the bottom block.
In the top three blocks there was a crown
of thorns.
This came out just five months after the Lord spoke to me of this
very type of thing fighting against the truths of God’s Word.
Conclusion
Take what you have read in these two parts of Know These Forces,
examine the Scriptures carefully with the prophetic messages and visions,
and pray the Lord will keep you in this serious hour which we are living in.
