Veronika continued Monday morning’s posting The Days of Elijah Have Begun in the early afternoon with further very serious insights from Holy Spirit whilst travelling home, as follows:

A SOBERING PROPHETIC WARNING TO THE CHURCH 

“Watch, for I AM raising up an Apostolic and Prophetic Remnant in The Spirit and Power of Elijah — that will bring Judgement on the House and the Sons of Eli”

 

So with The LORD speaking much to me today, concerning The Spirit and Power of Elijah, as I was driving home, suddenly I heard The Holy Spirit say something which caused me to pull off the road and write it down!

What He said was incredibly powerful, and friends, even as I write this, I feel the weight of The Spirit of The Fear of The LORD come upon me!

I heard Him say, “Watch, for I AM raising up an Apostolic and Prophetic Remnant in The Spirit and Power of Elijah — that will bring Judgement on the House and the Sons of Eli”

Wow… Wow!

Now, as I pulled off the road and wrote down what I was hearing The Spirit of Revelation saying, He suddenly showed me the “House of Eli and his Sons” as a Powerful Prophetic parallel of The Church in this hour.

Please see 1 Samuel 2 for more context for those Words.

There we encounter Hophni and Phinehas, the corrupt Sons of Eli the priest, who did not truly “know The LORD.”

They treated the sacrificial offerings made to God with disdain, and this led the people astray.

See also 1 Samuel 2:12-17,24 (below).

Their misconduct extended to vile acts of sexual immorality and perversion as they took sexual advantage of the women serving at the entrance of the Tent of Meeting!

Eli was aware of his sons’ actions and issued a rebuke, yet he failed to take decisive disciplinary action — and compromise crept in.

As a result, Hophni and Phinehas dismissed and ignored their father’s admonitions and continued in their wicked and corrupt ways, showing blatant contempt for God’s Laws and Instruction.

We then see God’s Prophet Samuel subsequently delivering a stark message of rebuke to Eli, accusing him of honouring his sons more than God Himself..

“Why do you kick at My sacrifice and My offering which I have commanded in My dwelling place, and honour your sons more than Me, to make yourselves fat with the best of all the offerings of Israel My people?” 1 Samuel 2:29.

This was a Warning of impending Judgment: where Eli’s sons were destined to perish, and his lineage would face an early demise.

I submit, if we look closely at the House of Eli and his sons, we can see clearly the intricate tapestry of Church hierarchy.

There are individuals like the Hophni and Phinehas figures, whose very existence raises alarm bells about the moral and spiritual integrity of religious leadership, we see demonstrated in The Church.

These men — the Sons of Belial — I believe represent a grave reality within The Church that persists in this day — those who do not truly know The LORD, yet wield significant influence, leading many of the faithful astray through their actions and strange fire^* teachings and prophecies!

Their behaviour often reveals a deep-seated corruption or a blatant disregard for the sacredness of the Word of God, embodying the strong metaphor of wolves in sheep’s clothing.

The Sons of Eli, “clad in the garments of so-called ‘righteousness’” misled God’s People, as they prioritised personal gain and popularity over genuine spiritual maturity and God-given Anointing and Authority.

Again, I see so clearly how this dark backdrop of the House of Eli and his sons, parallels prophetically The Church of today, many of whom are like Eli, as they strive to uphold their Faith within the religious structures of The Church.

These individuals are faithful Believers who grapple with their convictions in the face of widespread corruption. They are often paralyzed by a profound sense of hesitation when it comes to confronting the pervasive moral decay that surrounds them.

But like the House of Eli and his sons, this widespread corruption is not always overt; as it can manifest through subtle — yet damaging — compromises with worldly values, a disturbing rejection of the Word of The LORD, and an alarming reluctance to hold accountable those who perpetrate acts of evil, whether through negligence or intentional disregard for The Truth.

Just as Eli, the High Priest, chose not to discipline his wayward sons Hophni and Phinehas, and allowed them to continue in their wicked and perversion and misconduct in The Temple, many Church leaders today have acted in strikingly similar ways!

They have neglected their sacred responsibility and accountability to minister first unto God.

They have refused to uphold Purity, Integrity and Righteousness, in turning a blind eye to the actions of those among them who operate in ways that betray the very essence of their Faith!

By failing to confront wrongdoing, they have unwittingly enabled a toxic Spiritual Culture through complacency, and so abuse has flourished, allowing the seeds of corruption to take root and mature within The Church.

Ha! But now the Gavel is falling — and the grave consequences of such inaction, neglect and complacency that has been so severe, is leading not only to a distortion of the Truth of The Gospel, but also to a disillusionment of the faithful Children of God.

As the moral integrity of The Church has waned, so has the spiritual vitality and power of The Church.

This has left behind a wake of confusion and despair among those who seek for God’s direction and guidance in this time of great trouble in the world!

Just like Eli sought to protect his family’s status, that is exactly how The Church has tried to safeguard its reputation and popularity.

In its effort to appear inclusive, diverse and politically correct, The Church has promoted leaders who have a total disregard God’s Word and the leading of His Spirit!

I believe this is a Clarion Call to The Church in this 11th hour, to Return to its First Love — to Repent — and to uphold Truth, Holiness and Righteousness, and to Rise Up and begin to reveal the deep corruption and compromise that has brought great destruction.

Just as God prepared Samuel, God is raising a faithful Remnant to fulfil His Purposes!

Listen! God is not playing games with The Church in this Hour!

I Prophesy : ”WATCH! The House and Sons of Eli are about to come under the Judgment of God — and God is about to raise up a New Apostolic and Prophetic Wineskin filled with the Spirit and Power of Elijah — and they will curse the House and the Sons of Eli — and Great Judgement will ensue!

God is ‘Cleaning House’ and dealing with The Church as He dealt with the House and Sons of Eli!”

“The Wicked Sons of Eli
Now the Sons of Eli were corrupt;[a] they did not know The LORD. And the priests’ custom with the people was that when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest’s servant would come with a three-pronged fleshhook in his hand while the meat was boiling. Then he would thrust it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; and the priest would take for himself all that the fleshhook brought up. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there. Also, before they burned the fat, the priest’s servant would come and say to the man who sacrificed, “Give meat for roasting to the priest, for he will not take boiled meat from you, but raw.”
And if the man said to him, “They should really burn the fat first; then you may take as much as your heart desires,” he would then answer him, “No, but you must give it now; and if not, I will take it by force.”
Therefore the sin of the young men was very great before The LORD, for men abhorred the offering of The LORD…….
…….No, my sons! For it is not a good report that I hear. You make The LORD’s people transgress.” 1 Samuel 2:12-17,24.

^*Strange Fire: The Profane [Strange] Fire of Nadab and Abihu : “Then Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, put incense on it, and offered profane fire before the Lord, which He had not commanded them.” Leviticus 10:1.

Blessings to you all.
