Apostle Michael Petro: Blog

  We need to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit. This is a time of faithful prayer and constant communion with the Lord, to intently listen for the Lord’s voice. We are down to days, not even weeks. Right now, the Jews are saying they know who the Messiah is - they’re saying it’s this man who is half Arab and half Jewish. This is who the Bible calls the son of perdition. At the same time, the Jews are preparing to build the third temple right in front of the Wailing Wall. They also have two potential red heifers, which is something that has not been seen since the time of Jesus. It has been prophesied that Elijah or the Messiah would slay the tenth and final red heifer. We need to ask ourselves why they are in such a hurry to build the third temple...Simply put, they want to slay that red heifer, and once that is done, the end is here.   We need to press in to understand the gnosis of God, which is the knowledge of God. We live in a generation where most people are Bible illitera...

As the congregation gathered for Passover, there was a tangible presence of the Lord in worship. But even in the midst of it, the Lord was telling me that some are still holding onto a spirit of pride and it’s time to let it go. The Lord wants that spirit killed now. Too many are sitting back to observe, worried about what they’re going to look like, but this is not the time to spectate. This is the time to enter in. There was a heavy anointing for healing as almost every person rushed to the front. Many were slain in the Spirit and many cried out in travail. The spirit of revival began to break out. The Lord told me that He is releasing a new anointing for this season, but we have to learn to be sensitive to the Spirit of God. The Lord will pass by those who won’t humble themselves to enter in. The days of pride and the carnal mind are over. It’s time to enter in to the Spirit of Yah. As the presence intensified, some were crying, some were repenting, some were soaking in the presen...

No other chosen ones have been raised up to the extent of 144,000. These people are high priests. The Lord is bringing in a whole new priesthood to restore all things and bring in the harvest. This remnant is one of the most important positions and ministries that was ever created. The whole Bible is about them. The remnant is often discussed in religious circles but not really understood. Most soldiers are trained to fight from afar. They're not close to their enemies to fight them. But the 144,000 are special forces. They’re not coming to play around; they’re coming to bring maximum damage to the kingdom of darkness. The Lord is bringing those who are violent in their faith.   So many prophetic voices are saying that the harvest is coming any day now. The Early Church also said how it would come and who would bring it in - these apostolic fathers taught that the 144,000 would be sealed by Elijah to bring in the final harvest. The Lord is not looking for those who are always repen...

The 144,000... We are coming to a time where God is going to start bringing His wrath and judgment on the earth. He’s removing the religious, and He is done with lazy Christians who do not want to have a relationship with Him. Many think that everyone in the church is going to get into the kingdom of God and that the world will be judged, but when you read Romans 1 and 2, it’s easy to see that Paul is talking about the judgment of the church.    The Apostle Paul describes those who will receive the wrath of God. It’s those who are disobedient to truth, those who won’t repent (Romans 2:5-8), and those who suppress the truth. It’s those who are keeping the world from seeing who God is in them (Romans 1:18-19) - they are treasuring up for themselves wrath. When God’s divine nature is being revealed by rightly understanding the Gospel, it gives us that ability to become like Him. We think of sin as lying, cheating and stealing, but sin actually means to be ignorant of the truth. ...

For the last few weeks, the Lord has put Solomon on my heart. The pattern that we see in the Word of how the glory comes is shown through Solomon. Earlier this week, we were in intercession, when all of sudden, an angel appeared. This angel was bright, but not not as bright as others that have visited me in the past. When they appear with an exceedingly bright light, it’s difficult to see the form or shape because the brightness is almost blinding. I asked, “Who are you?” The angel said to me, “I am Wisdom.”  Wisdom is here to help us go through the final stages, making the adjustments that we need to make for the final move, for the glory to come. We have been praying for this baptism of fire, the final fire that dedicates the temple. There are some who are waiting for a temple to be built in the Middle East but Paul says we’re the temple. This temple built by the hands of man is not where He seeks to dwell but instead he seeks a place in you, the true temple of God (Acts 7:48). ...

Reprobate Mind… What is a reprobate mind and how can we spot it? The reprobate mind is a  religious spirit and is often seen in one who does not want to follow headship. Those who want to do their own thing and won’t submit to the truth are in danger of becoming reprobate. This mind is one of the things that will manifest itself at the end of the age. In Scripture, we can see how Jesus dealt with this kind of mindset. The Lord is the same yesterday, today and forever (Heb. 13:8) so the way he handles the reprobate will also be the same.    Many in the church perceive Jesus as soft, loving, and non-offensive. But when we pick up our Bibles it’s easy to see how confrontational Jesus was, and still is, against religious spirits. In the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 12:33-37) Jesus called the Pharisees a bunch of vipers right to their faces. Wait…where’s the love? I thought it was all about love and we can only say things that edify? Those with a  religious mindset often sa...

Spiritual Fathers The shift into the Millennial Kingdom is eminent. I believe a lot of things will happen around the upcoming Spring feasts, right around Passover. Doors are opening into TV ministry and we need to pray into next steps. This is a time of pressing in. Some of the final foxes we’re dealing with are going to be dealt with very quickly. We know that trials and tribulations come because of the Word’s sake (Mark 4:17). Opposition is needed in order to grow us up and mature us. When we’re going through the battle, we need to press through more than ever. All this baby stuff about feeling bad for ourselves needs to stop. I’m looking for the seals, the ones who are ready to take on the battle. When Paul was imprisoned and in terrible conditions, he counted it all joy (James 1:2). He knew that the affliction would perfect him. The Early Church knew that without the apostles there was no church. That’s why they guarded the apostles with everything in them. The more the apostles br...
