Ben Goss gave me a word that now is the time.
Today, I got two emails stating the same thing. Being hidden is done with. God is bringing me out.
Angela Greenig: Reformation Army – Arise!
By Angela Greenig
Oct 18, 2011
I live on the west coast, and a couple of weeks ago I was outside enjoying the weather. While I was standing there, a violent wind began to blow. I experienced extreme weather changes from all four seasons in a matter of an hour. I really felt the Lord say that it is time for the winds of change to blow again. God is blowing and stirring the fire and wind of His people like in Ezekiel 37. The wind is blowing and will bring great exposure to you who were hidden, and you will be hidden no more!
God called Elijah in a time where there was a severe drought and famine; he followed God’s instructions, and for a few years was hidden in a ravine fed by ravens. The Lord has called many of us to a time of separation, and it may even feel like you are isolated and barely getting by because of drought and famine. He will still feed us and prepare us – He never leaves us! When that season was over for Elijah, it was over and a new assignment began. Your season will soon be over.
Not Just a Restorer But a Reformer
Then Elijah was called to Zarephath to meet a widow who would supply him with food (1 Kings 17). At the gate of the town he met her. She was preparing for her last meal for her and her son. Elijah spoke to her saying, “Go home and do as I say. The oil and flour won’t dry up until there is rain in the land.” Elijah gave this woman hope – the same hope that so many in the Church need right now!
The gate to the town in this story represents the door of the Church and the widow is representative of the Church. The gate (door) is opened, maybe even broken, and the widow (Church) is waiting to eat her last meal and die. God is the priest, the head of His Church. You see, we shouldn’t have the mindset as leaders that we are barely getting by… apostasy (sin) or leaven has driven many from the Church to where it has brought famine. But listen – God is looking for Reformers, and He is not just calling for men and women but children and youth as well to go to the gates of our cities and reform what was.
We are to be like Elijah in the situation when the widow’s child died, to go in equipped and believing God for the impossible, lay our lives down prostrate before the Lord and resurrect life back into the house of the Lord. It’s time for the Reformation Army to arise, it’s time to transform and bring back. The word Elijah spoke to the people is still relevant today: “Serve God or Baal.” We must be prepared for the next few years, just like Elijah.
The name Elijah, meaning the “the Lord is my God,” represents the unshakable conviction of Elijah’s life. He was sent to Ahab at a time when all of the Lord’s prophets were being killed and Ahab had gone to great lengths trying to find him and kill him, too. God told Elijah, “Go…and I will send rain on the land” (1 Kings 18:1). In boldness and confidence in our King’s voice, Elijah listened. Stop questioning the voice of the Lord. We must have confidence that we can hear Him, and we must be obedient to what He is saying. Elijah’s mission was to awaken the Israelites to their apostasy, backsliding, lukewarmness, and to call them back to loyalty to the God of Israel. He was not just a restorer but a Reformer who sought to re-establish covenant.
God Calls the Reformers to Transform Our Times
Just like the Lord sent the rain on Mt. Carmel, the rain will once again come and bring to the surface the seeds that have been dormant. The latter rain will come and produce double what the enemy has stolen. God calls the Reformers to transform our times. Be encouraged and of good cheer, for we are strong and we are not alone. “Soon,” says the Lord, “the Baal priest and the prophet will be shown who it is that has the glory and is the true carrier of the Living God.” Sorcery, witchcraft, and the darkness that plagues our land will soon be uprooted and cast into the lake of fire!
We are in the eleventh hour. The number 11 means “judgment,” and God will bring justice and will redeem His people. Matthew 11:12 says the Kingdom of God suffers violence and the violent take it by force! Stand firm, friends. God is setting apart His remnant, and even though it feels as if we are standing alone, we are not. For He did not come to bring peace but a sword (see Matthew 10:34), but if we are willing to pick up our cross and follow Him (see Mark 8:34) our reward will be great (see Matthew 5:12).
Are you a Reformer? Believe God for the impossible and you too, like Elijah, will shake a nation to its destiny!

This Shall Be A Year of Turning
The Lord had been silent for a couple of weeks and I was making coffee one day when He began to speak this word to me for Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year.
This year will be a year of great change for My people. I am calling you out. My people have remained hidden but no more. I am calling you to witness for Me, to repent on behalf of your cities, your nations, to cry out to Me for mercy for My judgments are falling and you will see them increase this year. Nations that have turned from Me shall suffer great loss. Nations that refuse to know Me, greater still.
This shall be a year of turning.
In my spirit I saw a sifting taking place. Everything that was sifted went either left or right. In the spirit I knew every person would either get better – closer to the Lord – or worse – more in the world, because of great adversity that is coming.
My people will either turn to Me or from Me as adversity increases in the earth. Some of you are ready for what is coming, most are not. Readiness in your spirits consists of coming before Me daily in repentance, seeking My face, seeking My will in all things. Abiding in Me.
Most of you abide in the world and visit Me. I desire you do the reverse. In what is coming, the world cannot save you. It has become a snare to you, My people, for you do not see through its embellishments to the one who tempts you with worldly things.
As I was thinking about what a strange word embellishments was for the Lord to use, He reminded me of a vision He gave me back in about 2000 that I call the Conveyer Belt Vision, where He showed me that what people were driving to was what they thought would make them happy, and how Satan was behind it and destruction awaited them at the end of the conveyor belt.
Later, I looked up the word embellish in the dictionary, and found it made perfect sense. Here is what it said: ‘to decorate or adorn; to improve by adding details, OFTEN FICTITIOUS.
In this coming year, many who are prepared will be placed on the forefront (I knew He meant into ministries when He said this, and I thought of that scripture about not putting a lighted candle under a bushel where it is hidden).
These are those who have submitted to My preparation and refinement for years and have passed the test and been found faithful. I shall now greatly reward you for your efforts to be and stay in My will for your lives.
For those who have refused, there will be further testing. Some of you will suffer greatly because you did not obey Me when you knew I was calling you. (I sensed the Lord’s anger here) You thought to yourselves, “Let someone else do it,” and so your brothers and sisters have a heavier load. You expect Me to bless you in spite of your disobedience but you shall now pay the price.
Everything you have, I have given you, yet you refuse Me. If you have your health, it is by My decree. If you are prospering, I have ordained it. If your family is well, I have blessed them. Yet you take your ease and leave the load for someone else to carry. This year you shall feel My hand of judgment upon you for your disobedience. My blessings shall no longer rest on those who refuse to share the load.
For those of you who have given, I have seen your every sacrifice and you will now start to see tangible rewards for your obedience to Me. As you see others decrease in adversity, I will spare you and I will bless you. And I shall increase you miraculously. And you shall marvel and praise My Holy Name even more. And you shall know that My hand of blessing is truly upon you. Many of you have refused to stop giving even when you yourself were in need. You will receive the greatest blessings of all, you shall know My glory.
Eye has not seen nor ear heard the blessings I have in store for My people in this time. Yes, there will be disasters. Yes, there will be hardship, (At this point I saw in the spirit a group of many people covered in what appeared to be a wall or wing of feathers) but My glory shall outshine it all.
My children, you do not know the greatness of the hour in which you live. Your minds cannot comprehend all that is about to happen in the earth and in the heavenlies. Keep My word and My Son’s Name ever before you in this time. It shall lead you and guide you into all you need to know. There is much more coming in the world than My children realize but when you abide in Me, you are always prepared, for I Myself shall cause you to be ready. I Myself shall bring you all you need. There is no need for fear of what is to come.
Keep your eyes on Me. Do you think I will not care for My own? Do you think if you give to My work I will let you be without? If you are about your father’s business, do you think I will leave you in lack?
No, My children, for I am faithful to watch over My word and perform it at all times. Indeed as you sow into My kingdom, I shall sow back into your lives all you can ever need and more.
Be found in Me as My judgments fall. Be found obeying Me in all things and walking in My ways. Do not be found in the world, but in Me. Abide in My word and obey it and you shall not be in the world.
Separate yourselves to what I have called you to do and seek My face daily. Repent daily for your sins. Seek to please Me in all things. Do not follow the ways of the world but be found in My ways.
Luke 11:33: No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
John 15:5-6: I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. (6) If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
1 John 2:15-17: Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. (16) For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. (17) And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
I Cor. 2:9: But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
Matt. 6:27-29: Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? (28) And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: (29) And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Psalm 9:17: The wicked shall be turned into hell, and all the nations that forget God.
