Awake Mount Zion, A Call to the Remnant Bride – Book Written by Mark Bevan copyright 2024
The following chapter has been the hardest for me to write. It speaks of The Lord’s judgement on America and the world. For me this topic carries with it a great sorrow in my heart, one that I have been running away from for many years. My heart grieves with sorrow over the events I see coming. While my calling within the five fold ministry is not specifically that of the prophet, over the years the Lord has shared many deep truths with me, especially concerning the future of The United States of America. The reason for this is simple, this understanding was needed to prepare me, to accomplish the tasks at hand. Understanding and wisdom are both crucial to proper spiritual positioning. Let me illustrate.
During “Boot Camp”, a newly recruited soldier must go through rigorous training to be ready for the battlefield. He is taught to be proficient in the use of his weapons, be skilled in survival, and receives a great deal of strength training. However, physical fitness is not enough on its own. A soldier must also be mentally prepared for what he is about to face… the gruesome realities of war.
As much as I would like to put this chapter in the appendix, or perhaps leave it out altogether, I feel that now is the best time to speak of these things. The church needs to be aware of the great dangers that lie ahead, should they not heed the call to flee. As harsh as these warnings are going to be, the blood would be on my hands, if I fail in whatever way I am able to sound the alarm.
Much of this chapter, is going to be a collection of excerpts of conversations I have had with my Heavenly Father since 2010. You may not agree with what you read, but I ask you to take these things to the Lord wholeheartedly in prayer. Not because I want to be proven right, but because your life and that of your family may depend on it. God has a work for each of us on this earth. Part of that work is training for what comes after. To die before our work is completed, our race fully won, means souls which we would have reached may be lost forever. Please don’t be foolish to assume, that someone else will carry your load, simply because you failed to prepare. From all that I have seen, the journey ahead is going to be paved with great difficulty and personal sacrifice. It will require much mental and physical preparation, in order to overcome until our race is won.
On another note, if you are believing that an “all fly away,” pre-tribulation rapture is going to rescue you from what is coming… I suggest you get in your Word and do your own study. Because if you are wrong, you’ll still be raptured out of this world, but it may come with a great deal more suffering than you planned for.
Training to hear, Learning to Obey
We are going to discuss the training it requires to learn to hear the Lord later on. But, some of my reason for choosing to include this chapter now, is that you might see that it is possible to hear from the Lord very clearly, and more than just a few words here and there. When I began my wilderness walk, I was prompted of the Lord to journal. If I had to guess, I would say I wrote down 85% of what he has spoken to me. To date that is enough to fill a 3 inch thick three ring binder, typed, narrow margin and double sided. 800 pages and counting. It is amazing how the Lord will speak to us if we choose to be still and listen. 90% of this journal is not my words but His. I haven’t brought this up to be prideful, but instead to provoke you to righteous jealousy, as our God is no respecter of persons. What He will do for me, he will do for you. All you have to do is ask, and be willing to wait and listen. Some of this is going to sound very personal to me. But I hope that you will see that our Father is a very personal God. He cares for each of us greatly, beyond what we can imagine. The content that I am about to include has a carveout. In learning to hear, our understanding of what was spoken can often times be off. As you read this, only The Lord will be able to give you His understanding. So please ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in what you must know.
The following are some of the words my heavenly Father spoke to me over the years concerning judgement.
9/29/11 “Soon my next judgement will fall on the USA, and all the world will shake. Warn the people to repent and seek my face. Tell them to repent, repent now for all their evil deeds. Repent now for their idolatry, fornication, and unbelief. My hand of judgment is upon this land, and destruction will come forth on this nation.
An earthquake of epic proportions will strike the Coast. The people cry out in terror at the sight of death and destruction. Those that survive will fall to the famine, those that survived the famine will die by the sword. Tell my people to prepare their hearts.”
9/30/11 “My child what you are called to do is very hard, but I am with you. There will be times you want to give up but be strong in me. Within a few days now the world as you know it will change. Great destruction will fall upon the land. From the east to the west the nation will be changed. A time of great testing is coming for my people. But it will also be a time of great blessing for those who trust in me. Tell the people that judgment has come, now is the time to repent and seek me with all their heart. A great earthquake will strike soon. Great cities will fall to heaps and many will be killed. Floodwaters will take the lives of many more. Rivers of blood will flow in the streets.
Can you feel the world turning? Soon it will stop as time seems to stand still. Just like on 9/11 the people will be in shock and awe. The people will come in like a flood from the south. There will be shortages of food and other essential items. The military will step in and martial law will ensue. Then the markets will crash. A great panic will come over the land. Plant whatever you can, buy supplies now. Be at peace I will guide you. You have very little time now you must be diligent.”
1/27/12 the false attack on America will usher in the attack on Iran. Out of this war will come forth the beast. Anyone who is considered a terrorist of the state will be rounded up and detained.
2/24/12 You can only come to Me, because the same anointing that was on Christ, is on you by faith. You believe that my spirit is within you, and you seek to lay down your life so that I can live in you. Those who serve the “copy”(false christ) will never lay down their lives willingly. This is also why they will fight. You are correct that the insurrection (civil war) which shall come, will not have a simple front, but will be fought house to house. As they turn against neighbors. The states which choose rebel against the union shall be utterly destroyed. These are the same places where most of the church to flee to. They will try to escape Babylon by fleeing to Jerusalem, where they will die by the famine inside the gate. Those who are left will be left without a church presence, since the church will go into hiding. Those whom I have positioned, amongst the thorns and briars will come forth and shine my light in the darkness.
5/5/12 There is coming a day when the increase of the world will be destroyed and the curse shall fall upon it. Only those who have been found in me will taste of the increase. Great famine will befall all mankind. Men will come to the places I have ordained as a refuge to buy from my people. Just as in the days of Joseph. They will sell all the have just to buy bread.
12/18/12 You asked if the earthquake I spoke of was literal or spiritual. The answer is both. I have in fact told you of two earthquakes. One is the shaking in my church, which will be to your benefit and protection. The church will be distracted as many flee and others fall away. This earthquake is already begun… but soon the big one will come to my church. Then my true church will come out completely and judgment will fall on those who stay behind.
The Civil War that you have seen son, will soon erupt, and people have to choose a side. The apostate church will attempt to fight the government. Those (people) who do not take sides will not be part, but will share in the devastation as many will be killed on both sides. Individual states will choose sides at first. Christians in the Northeast and the West will flee to the heartland because they will be persecuted here. A great upheaval is coming. Families will be torn apart. Battle fronts in many places, but mostly within (the nation) as the perceived enemies are rooted out. Neighbor will turn against neighbor, and in states which choose to turn against Me, churches will be burned and people murdered for their faith. The other earthquake is literal the earth shall swallow up many who would come against my people but this will come later.
1/7/13 Do you see son, how the battle is beginning to rage? The war will be fought between the beast and the harlot. It is the Civil War in America which will usher in the one world government and religion, at which time the visible mark of the beast will be implemented. This will appear like a Civil War son, but it is not. It is Satan’s forces working from within to destroy the US and usher in a new world order. Yes, the combatants are the same nationality but that is where the similarity will end, for both sides lie in the hand of the evil one.
2/10/13 There will be a great shortage of food…
3/15/13 A time of panic will be felt throughout the land, this is when I shall establish you in the new place I have for you. The US government will fall before you know it. It will fall without much bloodshed, as did the Soviet Union.
7/30/14 A great earthquake looms on the horizon. It shall strike the soil of the United States. For some time now my judgement on this sinful nation has been withheld, because of the prayers of my saints. However, the judgment is now set and there shall be no more delay.
You and many others have prayed for my mercy and grace to come to this nation. To protect my people in the coming judgements. I have indeed heard these prayers. But know my son that these judgements which shall soon come and are indeed already here, are my mercy on a sinful nation, that all might repent and turn to me with all their heart. So, when you see these things come, let your heart not be grieved, but instead pray for the lost souls to return to me. Many of my children will also be taken to me in these events, not because it was their time but because they failed to listen. This grieves my spirit son, for I desire that I might live in them now, that they might do great exploits in my name that I might be glorified in them.
Look for an event of great significance to occur on the anniversary of Tisha B’Av. This is for the benefit of my people that they would see my mighty hand upon this nation. Many shall scratch their heads in amazement and awe, and great fear will spread throughout the land. Many will turn to me for help in their time of need. Pray for laborers in the harvest.
Black swan – The false flag event I spoke to you about will occur on the east coast. Remember I said more lives would be lost then 9/11. This event will have the effect of taking away whatever remains of your constitutional liberties as you know them now. America will once again be united under the false pretense of loyalty to country.
You ask when these things shall be, but can you not see the signs in heaven point to the time of Jacob’s trouble. For it is the time when all those who are not found resting in me, a time for all those who call themselves by my name, yet strive against me, to be judged. Is this not what Isaiah 3 says? Judgement comes first to the house of The Lord. But it shall not come nigh upon those found under my protection and grace, no indeed these are blessed.
8/20/14 A great earthquake is coming, and though it will not touch you here at home (in Maine), the repercussions of it will. Therefore, you must make preparations while you can. Consider that you may be without power and fuel for many days. Are you ready for this? I say few of you are. This will come before you think my children. Prepare now and you will also be ready for the frequent interruptions you shall experience to life as you know it in the days ahead. You must have or be able to access large quantities of fresh water. This is priority. Also having ample supplies of heating/cooking fuel is also a must.
1/15/15 A long period of famine is coming son. No jobs, and lack of work will drive people out of this land. Housing markets will crash. The dollar will devalue to nothing… Many will flee to the cities, but there will be no room for them there. In the country many will not survive because they will not have the basic necessities of life. Only those who can rely on me will be able to stand. Whole towns will dry up like the ghost towns of the gold rush days.
2/5/2015 Why would I show you the vision of the nuclear attack if it were not important to you son? Do you think I do not know what is most pressing? Why did I show you this of all things? Because it is coming soon, and you were unaware. This attack will change the dynamics of life in the US. The nation will not be the same after. A waring spirit will rise up within her. This waring spirit will seek to make war upon everyone. You have thought it because of the earthquake that I am taking you away. But I say a danger much greater than this is rising up in the spiritual realm. War!
8/12/20 shortly there will come a famine in the land the likes of which America has not known.
10/25/20 America will be torn in half just as it was during the civil war. Brother against brother, but not by geographical boundaries. False flag attacks are coming and will be blamed on right wing militant Christians. The country is not expecting another 9/11 but it is coming like Oklahoma City. The agenda now is to get America to fight itself and to make everyone a suspect. Further weakening each other’s trust. While the nation is looking for an attack from the outside it will come from within. China knows this is going to happen and is waiting to take Taiwan until the US distracted. This attack along with the resistance to a vaccine for covid, will give the military all the reason they need to declare Christians a threat.
11/30/20 Soon money will not be what separates rich and poor. For the definition of rich and poor, as defined by the people of this land shall change. Having money will be a curse to some and a blessing to others. Money will not determine wealth. Wealth will be determined by the amount of joy in one’s life. For many will not be able to find any joy or even hope in the near future. What good is money if it cannot buy the things you need. The money will fail first, then the mark of the beast will come. A transition period of much financial pain will be felt prior to the mark of the beast, which will be welcomed by many as a good and appealing solution.
6/1/21 This market/economic downturn will be greater than any you have heard of. Greater than the Great Depression. The unemployment jobless rate will hit 50%. Prices of everything will double… This crash is designed to take down the US dollar. The cabals/military industrial complex want more war, because war equals money. Crashing the dollar will destabilize America and cause her enemies to raise up the wherewithal and courage to attack her. But just as I have shown you this first strike on America will come from within. Just as you see her capitol barricaded and fortified, with her own armies standing outside the gates, know that her true enemy is within those walls.
1/31/22 This famine is not going to be one of drought so much as the crumbling of the worlds already broken systems. What you can grow will be much less affected than what is happening in the world around you. It will be difficult to get inputs unless you have the means to make your own. Transportation is going to become a big problem, and many places in the world will experience weather which is catastrophic to plants, animals, infrastructure and people.
2/13/22 The earthquake: I have spoken to you of many quakes. But, the one you refer to is the one which begins the tribulation. In Revelation 12, when the woman is fleeing the beast, the devil sends out a flood, and the earth opens up to save the woman. There will be literal earthquakes which mark this, nearly simultaneously around the world. Like the blood moons they shall be a great sign. They will continue for a time (1 year?) acting as a distraction for my bride to run and flee. It is after this earthquake(s) when it will not be safe for people like you. Not just on the internet but in general. Therefore, the places of refuge are needed.
4/8/22 There is a war coming son. A great battle between nation powers. It will be so destructive that it shall be very short in duration. This war is needed to usher in the covenants. The enemy is at the gates of America right now. Tearing down the walls. Soon America will be defenseless. She and many other nations like her shall soon fall but not completely, for their time is not yet competed.
5/17/22 There are men today who wish to make themselves gods like the men of old. Men fight for territory and power. They fight to be worshiped. Each play a game of chess. Always trying to overcome the other. A Great War wages right now, and has been waging since the days of old, for power. But this war is fought behind the scenes in the shadows. There are nations, then there are kings and princes. America has her kings and princes just like other nations. Democracy is just as much a delusion in today’s world as it was in Roman days, and has been for some time. Ask yourself… who holds the power over the people? (Him who holds the lands. Bankers?) Good. That’s where the real power is, and has been for some time. In every nation and state. Elite men control the going’s on of people every day. The people of the world are all slaves to their kingdom (Babylon) and they know it not. Most are willing slaves.
What does it take to keep a slave from revolting? (Keep them content, give them a little hope but not too much. Control their freedom.) And if you were a ruler of another nation, and wanted to upset the current leadership… how would you do that without waging war? (Cause their slaves to turn against the king. Make the slaves less content. Take away their freedom and hope.) good. These are the tactics of the enemy son. This is why my people need Godly leaders. Ones who look out for the people’s interest over their own. You live in a much darker world than you understand son. Trust only in Me for your understanding.
8/27/22 You are asking what to do? What to get ready for? Did I not say a flood was coming? Famine? An attack? Yes, even an earthquake? You are seeing all these things happening around you right now. Are you pressing in as though your life depends on it? You should be.
9/5/22 (speak to me what is on your heart regarding the United States of America.) You do well to ask this thing son. For many have heard of judgement and revival, but not many have ever asked how I feel.
The judgments which many have seen coming on this nation are not my desire son. Just as I did not ever desire to punish Israel. I do love this nation, just as I love Israel, for it was by my hand that both were established. America has been a refuge for my people and for others since her birth. But what began for good has been allowed to be corrupted, just like Israel.
It is I who put it on the hearts of a few men to write the documents which established America as a free nation. But the enemy has been allowed to sway the hearts of her people to choose evil over good. This is because of complacency. It was not always the case that the people had no say. They have a say in their own household, and that is where every decision which governs a nation begins. What will that household allow within its walls. Will it stand for evil or good? This nation son has turned from good to evil, one household at a time. Not because they chose not to take up arms, but simply because of what they let in the back door. It has become Sodom and Gomorrah. Like the Israelites, strange gods take up residence in the walls of its temples. Yes, in its churches, but also in its city halls, and even in the living rooms of its families. These gods are taught in its schools, and nowhere is mention of Me. My church is dead, and there is no power left in her dry bones. America has done abominable things in the name of peace. Sent her sons and daughters off to war in foreign lands, when she had no business there. She stirs up strife around the world, causing nations to hate and war against her, instead of being the great lighthouse of hope she once was.
There were two wars necessary in the US son. The revolutionary war…as it set America free from those who chose to control her people. Those who chose to rule over her by force, from a faraway place. Secondly the civil war, to begin the freeing of the black people from slavery. Both these wars occurred on American soil. Never once was an attack formulated on England during the revolutionary war. No, it was simply about fighting for the people’s rights to freedom and self-governance.
But now America does her business in foreign lands all around the earth, when it has no business there. Corrupt men rule this land and carry out all forms of the most evil debauchery. Yes, they lust for money, power and even sexual defilement. They lust after the most defiled things, becoming increasingly more evil in their hearts. They do things son, that even you can not imagine. This is the heart of Babylon son. Its spirit controls them. Not just here in the USA, but in nations around the world. The whole earth has become like Sodom. This is why I must intervene. Or they would destroy the whole earth.
I told you yesterday that there would be two witnesses, two branches of the olive tree. This is one nation made up of two houses. Not America and Israel… but Jew and gentile. Sharing in the birthright of their farther Abraham.
I have, and am turning My back on The United States of America, just as I did to Israel, not because I want to, but because I have to. Just as Israel faced her darkest hour in the time of her destruction, so shall America now face her darkest hour…without Me. For I have upheld her for too long, because of the prayers of her saints. Like Abraham praying for Sodom… the people have called out to me for mercy on this land. But no more…I am going to lift my hand of protection from upon this land. She shall be struck violently, with great force, in a moment. Then her pride will be knocked down and no more shall she be able to make war in foreign lands. My people within her shall run and hide, trying to escape as the beast army rises up. But in this they shall return to Me their first love. They shall become a great nation, not of the United States, but the United people of Christ.
This new nation is My nation, and it will carry with it all the power of Heaven behind it. Its people will be wanderers like Israel. Exiles in the wilderness, yet wherever my people settle there I shall be to establish them. I shall cause my people to turn from the evil ways and no defilement shall be found among them any longer. I will bless them and multiply them in the wilderness just as I did for Israel in Goshen. Turning the family into a multitude, and the city into a nation. This is the great harvest that many have seen. When I shall multiply that which is mine, and destroy forever those who turn against Me in rage.
Pray son, that my kingdom would be established in the earth. Pray for laborers to come forth to do the work of establishing… planting the seeds of the kingdom, in their families, in their community, in their nations. America has had time to repent of her deeds and turn back to Me. Now the judgement is set and swiftly now the judgement will come. Behold the enemy is even at the gates. They have assembled their great weapons of war. They have readied the armies, now the battle will begin. A strike, a great blow.
What you see in the news, the rhetoric of lies coming from the leaders of this nation is a smoke screen designed to lull the people to sleep. It is designed to make the true people of this land look like the perceived enemy. This enemy is attacking from within, with one goal… to destroy My people. All the others are but pawns and they know it not. The enemy is spewing out his flood even now. Gathering a great army to come against My people. My people shall be hated and killed by the beast. But yet a remnant shall not only escape, but overcome! For in this time, as the enemy strikes the land, I shall swallow up this flood and give my people safe travels through the wilderness to the houses I have prepared. There I shall nurture them as a mother raises up her young. There I shall teach them as a father teaches his sons in the way they shall go. Gather them son. Gather them in and pray with them. Comfort them in their weakness and fear. Know now that none of this shall be the end of things. I shall have a bride, and she will be victorious!
9/18/22 What have I warned you about? Have I not said I would strike America? Who did I say Vladimir Putin represents? (Cyrus) yes of the Medes and Persians. Their role is to conquer Babylon. Is Babylon just the US? No, but it represents a mixed people, who conquered Israel. Babylon was made up of slaves and the ones who owned those slaves. There are some, in this time, which seek to make slaves of everyone. I have raised up Putin to be a thorn in the side of these men. The beast has not yet risen, but the time quickly approaches. Putin is being used to bring this to pass and at the same time give my people a chance to escape. You see this as their flight into the wilderness.
9/21/22 Something is coming, so unexpected and unimaginable, that no one is prepared. When it comes the world will stand still. It comes quickly now. Very few around you are listening son, and many more are not prepared at all for that which is coming. It will come as a great wave. One thing right after another. It will feel like there is nowhere to turn and no air to breath. Everyone will be in shock, even those like you whom I have prepared. But listen son, as there is much more. This opening salvo, the blowing of the trumpets, is only the beginning of things which will get more and more difficult as the next season progresses.
Soon I will wake My people up. The call will go forth… come to Zion. Some will foolishly think that this means going to (the nation) Israel, but it is a spiritual place I am after. The fortress, the protected place in Me. I have set My leaders there already. They have made the preparations for war and put on their armor. They shall now defend My bride, in the hidden place I have made for her.
9/22/22. Isaiah 65-66. There is much darkness coming, and it shall grow darker and darker, but in the darkness is where My light shines the brightest. Remember that My light is shining, and will continue to shine as the darkness comes. You will never be without it despite how the situation looks.
You are asking about this Great War which I mentioned… are you at the beginning or end? I didn’t give you a start or end date, but said it would be short, and that it would leave the world in shock and awe. What would do this son? I told you the other day that America would bring it on herself. Babylon has been busy drinking wine and getting rich. She has sought to enslave all her people that they would fight for her. But Babylon is about to be brought low.
10/11/22 I shall take those who are mine into the wilderness… the wilderness of peoples… and there I shall make them to pass under the rod, and there I shall bring them into covenant with me. But for those who turn from me, who will not go to the wilderness where I am leading them; to them it is to bondage and wrath. Two great kings are rising and the people must decide which they shall side with. Both are flexing their muscles for war. Yet one fears me, the other has no regard for my ways.
So, to Cyrus, will come the greater victory, and a kingdom…but it shall be short lived. For the man of sin must rise, that my people would be proven in the wilderness. But in the wilderness, My people, My bride will find her place. She shall rise up like an eagle. She shall raise up new leaders who fear me, and to them shall be given dominion and power.
Where did democracy start? (Greece) Democracy is not the foundation of America. No, it’s strength is found in its freedoms. Those freedoms have been abused and allowed to become what it was not designed to be. America has become as corrupt as Greece and Rome, because it’s leaders no longer fear me. What else is Greece known for… (philosophy and sexuality) It could be said that democracy began with a society of debauchery? That it went hand in hand? Is this not what you see now in America and the “western” nations?
11/21/22 The famine I spoke of so long ago is here son. Just because you have food, and there is food on the grocery store shelves, does not mean it is available to everyone. Many cannot afford the current prices, which are sure to increase greater still even as supply goes down continually going forward.
2/14/23 Let Me show you what is coming, that you might have eyes to see and ears to hear the truth. I did tell you a Great War was coming. I did tell you that it would be a short war, because the destruction would be great. The antichrist spirit is punching the bear and the dragon at the same time. It wants this conflict, because in this conflict the only one not hurt it itself. It is not America pushing against the great beasts of the earth, it is the Antichrist. The Antichrist only cares about the total destruction of the church. The destruction of My Kingdom and My government.
The enemy has many plans son. He has had a long time to devise the wickedness that is now so prevalent in the earth. I told you a Cyrus was coming. His kingdom is about to strike a great blow to the head of the UN beast. This is necessary son, that My people would come out from under the political harlots they slumber under. The “great” beast is rising up and soon shall be. You know this is both written and necessary in these days.
2/21/23 You need not fear Cyrus or the medio/Persian empire. For they are come to set my people free. They shall not make a complete end to this place of America. For I have purposed it to remain as a light of hope. But first it must be shaken to the ground, that I might rise it up from the ashes.
2/25/23 There shall be great destruction. Men, not found dwelling in the secret place with me, will feel much dread and terror. I am protecting this region of New England for my people’s sake. From here will go forth a great light. Across this nation and throughout the earth.
I will bring an end to this Great War, just as it starts. I will make a complete end of it for my people’s sake. Yes, America will be struck, but not only America. The beast which now is must be cut down that another can arise. I shall strike the head of the Babylonian beast, by the hand of my servant.
You are right again. It is the spirit of Cyrus coming to strike and take the city. Cyrus is not Trump or Putin alone, but a combination of the above and many others. A corporate manifestation. At the time these things occur, the call will go out. “Come out, come out… flee to the wilderness!” The great migration shall begin, and refugees shall walk the streets of America.
The events coming will be catastrophic for America and the western world. But in the midst of it, I shall come with healing in my wings. Persecution must come for my elect’s sake. But great victory shall come forth for my kingdom!
