Revised October 2003

    The Lord has impressed me with the fact that the general church in the world does not know what God is doing in this hour. So whether we view this writing as a report of some type or a call to those really sold out to the Lord, let me emphasize that it in no way is my intent to bring attention to any certain man, myself included. It is "What the Lord is doing" that I want to bring attention to, and that alone. He has His plan and has been preparing men for certain tasks that have to do with end times. You must understand that your part of the body is important no matter how visible it is. But, the Lord would not have you ignorant of a much bigger picture of what He is doing. We are approaching end days and the Marriage of the Lamb that will occur in the earth.
    I want you to see that what the Lord is doing is much bigger than any ministry or any specific commission of any apostle, prophet, etc. Even though each commission (that is really of God) is vital to God's end time plan, it is important for all of us to know and recognize each calling and commission or we will most likely miss our part of obedience to the King of Kings.

Wake up Church!

GOD'S SHIPS

    This part should help show you that God is preparing for end time events. It also shows us that the Bride will still be here during those events. This is not hard to accept when you understand the spotless - married - Bride will be under God's protection.
    James Banfield has been commissioned by the Lord to build two ships, Revelation and Revelation II. They are for the Lord's end time purpose.   I have seen some sketches of these ships. Are the ships biblical? Yes, they are; although we know in part, just as Moses only knew in part as to all that would happen when he set out to be used of God to set Israel free.

Ezekiel 30:1-9
The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying, Son of man, prophesy and say, Thus saith the Lord God; Howl ye, Woe worth the day! For the day is near, even the day of the Lord is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of the heathen (NKJV - the time of the Gentiles; IB - it shall be the time of the nations). And the sword shall come upon Egypt, and great pain shall be in Ethiopia, when the slain shall fall in Egypt, and they shall take away her multitude, and her foundations shall be broken down. Ethiopia, and Libya, and Lydia, and all the mingled people, and Chub, and the men of the land that is in league, shall fall with them by the sword. Thus saith the Lord; They also that uphold Egypt shall fall; and the pride of her power shall come down: from the tower of Syene shall they fall in it by the sword, saith the Lord God. And they shall be desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities shall be in the midst of the cities that are wasted. And they shall know that I am the Lord, when I have set a fire in Egypt, and when all her helpers shall be destroyed. In that day shall messengers go forth from me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid, and great pain shall come upon them, as in the day of Egypt: for, lo, it cometh.

    In the Bible God's messengers are His true apostles and prophets and they have a message from God! God says, ". . .messengers go forth from me in ships." James has much more information on his site. If you read all of his testimony you will gain more understanding of the purpose of these ships. But to give you a little insight here, I include his testimony of

"Feb 9, 1992 ....(Hoag Hospital, North Newport Beach) the Lord again spoke to me and said, 'James, take my church to the people' This time I answered and said, 'Yes Lord, I want to take your church to the people but you are going to have to show me how you want me to do it.....' Then HE spoke these words that shook me in the spirit from head to foot... 'James, build my ships... to show you that it is I the Lord thy God that speaks this thing to you, I will give you 7 confirmations.  Here is the first ... LUKE 5:2'"

And this:

"In the 6th year of the waiting upon the Lord He brought me to Dan 11:30 and asked me this question...'What nation would send their ships of war against one who comes against the Holy Covenant?' I answered 'None Lord, for no country would send their ships against another just for their religious beliefs' Then He said, 'Then who's ships are these that defend the Holy Covenant?' I knew the Answer...'They are your ships Lord, your ships that are sent to defend the Holy Covenant!'" }

James has progress reports on his site and I picked one for you to see:

{"2/2/2000!! Exactly 8 years to the day (Feb 2, 1992) when the Lord said, 'Take my church to the people.' ... I saw the concept plans, sketches for the Revelation and the Revelation II.  WOW!!!!" }
