Hi,

    I was praying before I went to sleep. I asked the Lord to show me what He would if He chose to do so. Then as I was
    drifting off to sleep I saw the eyes of a leopard. I only saw the eyes, but I knew it was a leopard God was showing. The
    Leopard was seeing, it was a point that the leopard was viewing something. That puzzled me. I fell asleep and saw the
    side of a leopard in motion. That puzzled me.

    Well, I woke around 3 AM with the eyes yet again in my sight So I got up after awhile, asking God to show me. I went to
    the word. I knew about a leopard in regards to Greece in the end time, but what I was seeing was that of a leopard
    viewing something.

    I was asking Lord what is that about?. So I looked it up and this is what I found. Again, judgment as it related to our
    nation in parallel with Israel.

    Hosea 13:4-16

    4 Yet I am Jehovah thy God from the land of Egypt; and thou shalt know no god but me, and besides me there
    is no saviour. 5 I did know thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought. 6 According to their pasture, so
    were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted: therefore have they forgotten me. 7 Therefore am
    I unto them as a lion; as a leopard will I watch by the way; 8 I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her
    whelps, and will rend the caul of their heart; and there will I devour them like a lioness; the wild beast shall tear
    them.

    9 It is thy destruction, O Israel, that (thou art) against me, against thy help. 10 Where now is thy king, that he
    may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges, of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and princes? 11 I have
    given thee a king in mine anger, and have taken him away in my wrath. 12 The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up;
    his sin is laid up in store. 13 The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him: he is an unwise son; for it
    is time he should not tarry in the place of the breaking forth of children. 14 I will ransom them from the power of
    Sheol; I will redeem them from death: O death, where are thy plagues? O Sheol, where is thy destruction?
    Repentance shall be hid from mine eyes.

    15 Though he be fruitful among his brethren, an east wind shall come, the breath of Jehovah coming up from
    the wilderness; and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: he shall make spoil of the
    treasure of all goodly vessels. 16 Samaria shall bear her guilt; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall
    fall by the sword; their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up. ASV



    Hosea 14

    1 O Israel, return unto Jehovah thy God; for thou hast fallen by thine iniquity. 2 Take with you words, and
    return unto Jehovah: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and accept that which is good: so will we render
    (as) bullocks (the offering of) our lips. 3 Assyria shall not save us; we will not ride upon horses; neither will
    we say any more to the work of our hands, (Ye are) our gods; for in thee the fatherless findeth mercy.

    4 I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely; for mine anger is turned away from him. 5 I will be as the
    dew unto Israel; he shall blossom as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon. 6 His branches shall spread,
    and his beauty shall be as the olive-tree, and his smell as Lebanon. 7 They that dwell under his shadow shall
    return; they shall revive (as) the grain, and blossom as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of
    Lebanon.

    8 Ephraim (shall say), What have I to do any more with idols? I have answered, and will regard him: I am like a
    green fir-tree; from me is thy fruit found. 9 Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Prudent, that he
    may know them? For the ways of Jehovah are right, and the just shall walk in them; but transgressors shall fall
    therein.


    I also got this scripture from the Lord Thursday, Which actually is in line with what God showed me tonight with the focus
    on the positive. Hard times are ahead, but God will be with us. We must stay close to the Lord.-

    2 Corinthians 4:1-5:12

    Treasure in Perishable Containers

    1 And so, since God in his mercy has given us this wonderful ministry, we never give up. 2 We reject all
    shameful and underhanded methods. We do not try to trick anyone, and we do not distort the word of God.
    We tell the truth before God, and all who are honest know that.

    3 If the Good News we preach is veiled from anyone, it is a sign that they are perishing. 4 Satan, the god of this
    evil world, has blinded the minds of those who don't believe, so they are unable to see the glorious light of the
    Good News that is shining upon them. They don't understand the message we preach about the glory of Christ,
    who is the exact likeness of God.

    5 We don't go around preaching about ourselves; we preach Christ Jesus, the Lord. All we say about ourselves
    is that we are your servants because of what Jesus has done for us. 6 For God, who said, "Let there be light in
    the darkness," has made us understand that this light is the brightness of the glory of God that is seen in the
    face of Jesus Christ.

    7 But this precious treasure--this light and power that now shine within us--is held in perishable containers,
    that is, in our weak bodies. So everyone can see that our glorious power is from God and is not our own. 8 We
    are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed and broken. We are perplexed, but we don't give
    up and quit.

    9 We are hunted down, but God never abandons us. We get knocked down, but we get up again and keep going.
    10 Through suffering, these bodies of ours constantly share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may
    also be seen in our bodies. 11 Yes, we live under constant danger of death because we serve Jesus, so that the
    life of Jesus will be obvious in our dying bodies. 12 So we live in the face of death, but it has resulted in eternal
    life for you.

    13 But we continue to preach because we have the same kind of faith the psalmist had when he said, "I believed
    in God, and so I speak." 14 We know that the same God who raised our Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus
    and present us to himself along with you. 15 All of these things are for your benefit. And as God's grace brings
    more and more people to Christ, there will be great thanksgiving, and God will receive more and more glory. 16
    That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day.

    17 For our present troubles are quite small and won't last very long. Yet they produce for us an immeasurably
    great glory that will last forever! 18 So we don't look at the troubles we can see right now; rather, we look
    forward to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon be over, but the joys to come will last
    forever. NLT
