The Birthing of Paradise


What About 11/11?

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. - Matthew 24:7 KJV

Jesus said there would be, wars, famines, pestilence and earthquakes in the last days. In my earlier article 11/11 911? I posed the question of whether the ascent of the Antichrist would begin November 11 due to the chaos of a major global event.

We did not see an earth-shattering quake on 11/11 nor the actual beginning of world war, but something did happen as related to the rise of the Beast System. To learn more about this, go to The Beast and the Star by Todd of It is Finished YT Channel who gives a synopsis. Also FaceLikeTheSun did a related video Was Bitcoin made by an A.I.?

The “Sevens”

Prophecy is coming to pass before our very eyes! This past Saturday as I waited upon the Lord this thought came into my spirit:

Just as labor contractions come in waves that strengthen with each phase, so will the “sevens” of the 7-year Tribulation. Each “seven” will be more intense than the previous “seven”. The 7 trumpets will wash over the earth stronger than the 7 seals that came before them. And the 7 bowls will crash with a wrathful fervor as never seen before by mankind (Daniel 12:1).


We are seeing the early phase, I believe, of the yet to come Birthpangs of Messiah or Jacob's Trouble. Earthquakes have already ramped up in intensity and the island of Madagascar is experiencing a highly contagious plague outbreak; but as Psalm 91 promises,

I will say of the LORD, [He is] my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, [and] from the noisome pestilence [calamity of plague]. - Psalm 91:2-3 KJV

Then there’s the Middle East!

THIS WEEK HISTORY WAS MADE WHEN TURKEY, IRAN, AND RUSSIA BECAME ALLIES! To understand how this might be the preliminary stage being set for the Ezekiel 38 war, watch Never In Human History Has These 3 Nations Had An Alliance! Also starting around the 13-minute mark, J. D. Farag gives his latest Middle East Prophecy Update.



Paradise

All these rumblings are but the beginning of sorrows. But just as human labor brings forth beautiful new life, so will The Tribulation. The Tribulation will be the bloodiest of births; but it will yield Paradise when Yahshua Ha Moshiach, our Jesus Christ, sets up His thousand-year reign upon the earth.

Jesus told His disciples of the coming Paradise:

And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. - Matthew 19:28-29 KJV

The word “regeneration” in verse 28 is translated from the Greek word paliggenesia which is made up of two root words:

1) palin—again, back, once more, further, on the other hand

2) genesia—a birthday celebration

Genesia is where we get the word “Genesis” from also. During the Millenial Reign of Jesus Christ, our Lord is going to return Earth to its original glory before the fall of mankind! Once again man will live in Paradise and eat of the Tree of Life!


He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. - Revelation 2:7 KJV






Caveat: I do not necessarily agree with all the beliefs of anyone whose material I reference. I seek to be led of the Spirit of God as to the sources I use, however, even Spirit-filled Christians only 'see in part' as it says in 1 Corinthians 13:12.

LOOKING BUT NOT SETTING A DATE


In my Hold Fast! article I shared J. D. Farag’s Mid-East Prophecy Update October 22, 2017 wherein he tells of a significant prophetic event that points to the nearness of a world war. He explains that we are on the cusp of Isaiah 17 and that he believes it will lead to the Ezekiel 38 war.

The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from [being] a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. - Isaiah 17:1 KJV


This may be what we should be looking for next. It has been exciting to listen or read what the other watchmen were finding even though I had already concluded that there is NO WAY to know what day our Lord Yahshua is coming! I shared how I came to this realization when I reposted The Rapture: Can the Timing Be Known?

. . . I now believe the Rapture event will be in my lifetime on a day chosen by our Heavenly Father. Just as in the ancient Hebrew wedding tradition, the Heavenly Bridegroom Jesus will come to snatch away His Bride when His Father decides that all is ready. (For more information on this go to ldolphin.org/TheNuptials and biblestudytools.com.)

Why Bother Watching?

This does not mean it is wrong to speculate about His coming, but we cannot be absolute in our findings. I’m sure that when a Hebrew bride was waiting for her groom she tried to figure out when he might come for her. The important thing is to be aware of the imminence of our Bridegroom coming.

Jesus warns the church to watch for Him or He will come as a thief:

Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee. - Revelation 3:3 KJV

In contrast to this, those who seek the Lord and do watch, will know the nearness of the Rapture:

But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief; for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness; so then let us not sleep as others do, but let us be alert and sober. 1 Thessalonians 5:4-6 NASB

It has been my lifestyle to seek the Lord’s face and hope for His coming, but did not research to look for the time of His coming.

. . . Then about two years ago, it was as though the Spirit of the Lord turned a switch to ‘ON’ inside me and I KNEW the Rapture was critically close at hand! [excerpt from The Rapture: Can the Timing Be Known?]


This is what I believe 1 Thessalonians 5:4 is referring to when it says we who watch will not be overtaken like a thief when the day comes. Not that we know the exact day, but that we will be alert to His nearness because of the Holy Spirit putting the awareness within us! 



What DO We Look For?

In agreement with The Watchman's Watchman it is the fulfillment of an event that we are to look for--most likely the Isaiah 17 event must occur prior to the Rapture of the Church Bride.

It is my belief, along with Chuck Missler and many others, that the Overcoming Church will be raptured before the Ezekiel 38 war. As Brother J. D. Farag shared, the total destruction of Damascus will most likely be the catalyst for that war. Rapture dates we were alerted to by watchmen might have coincided with Isaiah 17 and Ezekiel 38, but so far that is not the case.   

It is my belief that the Rapture will be a rescue amid the world falling apart around us in the way of nuclear war, earth-shattering quakes, and perhaps a meteor shower. In essence, escaping By the Skin of Our Teeth!

In the meantime we must be about our Father’s business:

But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

Blessed [is] that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Matthew 24:43-46 KJV

11/11 911!?


Many of the watchmen have been shown by the Holy Spirit that a catastrophic event in the way of a great earthquake and/or tsunami will occur prior to the Rapture of the Church Bride. In addition to this, many are being shown that November 11 is significant.

The IT IS FINISHED YT Channel’s recent videos are what caught my attention--

"Phoenix Rising November 11th" - Dream Brother Jordan was posted November 5 with confirmation posted today. Brother Todd believes the watchmen are being shown that the Antichrist (represented by the Phoenix) will rise.



The Lord recently gave me a prophetic word wherein He said:

“WAR IS UPON YOU BUT THE KING OF PEACE REIGNS!”

Could it be that the ascent of the Antichrist begins November 11 due to the chaos of a major earth-shattering event? Some have been shown that the United States will experience a great earthquake and then be invaded by a foreign country. So will it be War? Earthquake? Tsunami? We are not certain for we only “see in part”.

Perhaps we will see very soon the manifestation of Bob Barber’s vision as shared in his video MY VISION! OUR LAST DAY! DRAGON ARRIVES! WE DEPART! in which he describes a series of events that include nuclear war breaking out on the day of the Rapture (previously posted on The Ark of Escape).

Whether the 11/11 warning is referring to tomorrow or to a different year, I am led to also sound the alarm!

While watching this video it came to my mind that I have seen 9:11 for many, many years, but never 11:11. Then Todd began talking about how our calendar uses “September” for the ninth month but that “sept” actually means “seven”; “octo” means “eight” and “novem” means “nine”. That means November 11 is really 9/11—EMERGENCY! Also PSALM 91:1!

Other related watchman videos (most I have already posted before):

These reports along with the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter have me on high alert! (See also The End? and The Morning Star Rises!) It may be there is a catastrophic event to wake people up to the lateness of the hour so that they call on the Lord and are saved from the wrath that is to come.

Let us PRAY, WATCH, and REMEMBER His promise to be our total sufficiency in ALL things at all times!

And God [is] able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all [things], may abound to every good work: - 2 Corinthians 9:8 KJV

The Morning Star Rises!

 I am the root and the offspring of David, [and] the bright and morning star. - Revelation 22:16 KJV

Keep on Keeping On

Recently, the Spirit of the Lord led me to write down a message. Part of that message was:

Now is come the time for you to look up for your redemption draws near. Be not afraid of the night for the Morning Star doth arise!

Since I already knew about the coming conjunction involving Venus, the morning star, I wondered if I had truly heard from the Lord.

Depending on where you live worldwide, Venus and Jupiter will come closest together on the sky’s dome on the morning of November 13 or 14. EarthSky

Could this be a heavenly marker pointing to the catching away of the Church Bride?

Many, including myself believe it or not, are weary in watching for the Lord to snatch us away. The thing is, too many events are pointing to us being in the season for His coming so WE MUST KEEP WATCHING AND KEEP LOOKING UP! 

Feasts Fulfilled at 2nd Coming

Along with Scottie Clark and many others, my expectation was a Feast of Trumpets Rapture matching the September 23-24, 2017 celestial alignment. In previous blog articles, however, I suggested the possibility that just as He had done at His First Coming, the Messiah might fulfill the Feast of Trumpets along with the rest of the fall feasts in Jerusalem at the Second Coming when He physically comes to earth (Revelation 19:11; Zechariah 14:4).

Daniel Matson (watchfortheday.org) agrees in his article The Man-Child Meets the Morning Star:

So we are fulfilling Matthew 24:44:

Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

We were ready, but we were thrown a curve ball thinking the fall feasts may have had something to do with the removal of the Church. This has been discussed previously. It seems that the entirety of the fall feasts will be fulfilled directly at the Second Coming in actual sequence.

Daniel Matson has done a great deal of research (and math) related to the season we are in. Just look at this chart he made from the last blood moon to the November 12-13 Venus/Jupiter conjunction:
http://watchfortheday.org/morningstar.html
I am aware that many brothers and sisters made calculations leading to the Rapture taking place in September based on the 2017 Feast of Trumpets which turned out to not be accurate. 

The solution then seemed to follow with the Days of Noah. However, was it the anniversary days or a unique day based upon the same model of being sealed into the Ark before the Flood? This is why the last day on the radar looks to be November 12/13. [Excerpt from  The Man-Child Meets the Morning Star]

Daniel Matson bases his calculations on a seven-year Tribulation period ending in 2024 making November 19-20, 2017, the latest possible date for the Rapture to occur this year. Just as Noah and his family were sealed in the ark 7 days before the flood rains came, Daniel proposes that the Rapture occurs 7 days before November 19-20 during the conjunction.

Of course, this is still speculation but one of these days HE IS COMING FOR US!
