ORIGINS OF THE 11TH HOUR WAR ROOM

The 11th Hour War Room

Twenty years ago, I wrote a book titled "The Eleventh Hour – And Then the End Shall Come." Its purpose was to awaken the church from spiritual complacency by addressing critical themes: the purpose of the church on earth, its condition in light of Scripture, the definition of the Kingdom of God, eschatological issues and pitfalls, the mandate to preach the gospel of the Kingdom, confronting an antichrist culture, Kingdom economics, and strategic planning. Though the book was never published, it served as the thesis for my Master of Divinity. Now, 24 years later, I find The Eleventh Hour becoming a reality. While the end has not come as swiftly as I once anticipated, we are still living in the critical 11th hour for the Ecclesia, the church.

We live in a world determined to destroy us daily, while much of the church remains asleep, trusting that God will simply remove them from the earth through the rapture. I abandoned that mindset years ago, despite having intensely studied eschatology for over a decade. The Ecclesia—the church—was never meant to be passive but to serve as a powerful force for righteousness, the leading opposition against evil, and the instrument to make disciples of all nations. We are soldiers, personally enlisted by our Commander-in-Chief, Jesus Christ. As 2 Timothy 2:3-4 declares: “Join with me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer.”

The Eleventh Hour War Room exists to gather men and women of like mind and spirit who are ready to take up the mantle as soldiers of Christ—standing with our Lord and Savior to advance His Kingdom. We have been called and commissioned to fulfill His purpose on earth, glorifying Him and finding our ultimate joy in Him for eternity.

God has a sovereign strategy to accomplish His plan of redemption throughout the earth. To accomplish this mission, we, the church, must stay spiritually awake, vigilant, and ready to respond to His command. His chosen vessel for this purpose is His people.

Yet, one of the greatest challenges we face today is the issue of cash flow. The world operates on money, cash, and currency, and Scripture warns of a time when buying and selling will be restricted to those who bear the mark of the beast. Revelation 13:17 declares: “so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark—the name of the beast or the number of its name.” Over the years, I’ve heard many Christians confidently claim they would never take the mark of the beast. However, the realities of financial systems and global control present a test of faith that requires serious preparation and spiritual fortitude.

This presents a couple of serious challenges. When faced with the desperation of starving children or loved ones in urgent need, how many parents would refuse the mark for their sake? The second issue is the uncertainty surrounding the mark itself—what it is, how it will be implemented, or when it will be required.

Over the years, I’ve heard many preachers confidently explain the details of the mark, its timing, and its form. Yet history shows that God’s people often miss the mark when it comes to prophetic fulfillment. The Jews didn’t recognize the Messiah when He came. The church misunderstood the coming of the Holy Spirit and the kingdom of God. I have little confidence that the church will fully grasp the realities of Christ’s Second Coming—and even less certainty that they will correctly identify the mark of the beast when the time comes.

Even in the face of these challenges, what solutions exist for the Ecclesia—the church—not just to survive but to thrive in a collapsing and changing financial system? A world shifting toward digital currencies, digital IDs, and centralized control over our financial lives through global banking systems requires divine wisdom and strategy.

John 10:10 reminds us of Jesus' purpose: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came so that they would have life, and have it abundantly.” God has always provided strategies for His people. In Genesis 47, He gave Joseph insight to secure provision for Israel during a time of great famine. Using the resources and wealth of Egypt, Joseph positioned Jacob’s family in the best land, where they thrived, multiplied, and were entrusted with managing Pharaoh’s livestock:

"Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, ‘Your father and your brothers have come to you. The land of Egypt is at your disposal; settle your father and your brothers in the best of the land, let them live in the land of Goshen; and if you know any capable men among them, then put them in charge of my livestock.’” (Genesis 47:5-6)

Remarkably, both Pharaoh and Egypt prospered alongside Joseph and his family: “So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh.” (Genesis 47:20)

God’s strategies are never limited by financial systems. As He did for Joseph, He can equip His people today with wisdom, resources, and influence to flourish even in times of global economic instability. 

The mission of The Eleventh Hour is to unite and equip people with the knowledge and strategies needed to create sustainable cash flow, using the wealth of "Egypt"—the world’s resources—to empower the Ecclesia (the church) and extend help to those in need. This initiative is not for the faint-hearted. The realities of what is unfolding in the world today are startling and, at times, deeply unsettling.

However, the purpose is not to instill fear or intimidation but to provide God’s people with the understanding necessary to navigate these times with wisdom and courage. By working together, we can build financial strength and resilience, standing firm in faith as we prepare for the challenges of today and the events yet to come.
