As I sought Him this past Saturday morning, the Spirit
of the Lord led me to read in Exodus 20. Whenever I read Exodus, it makes me
think of how God will catch His people away from the world one day soon:
I [am] the LORD thy
God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of
bondage. - Exodus 20:2 KJV
Exodus Pentecost
But as I read Chapter 20 I realized that this account was
about what happened on Mount Sinai during Shavuot, known to most as Pentecost.
Shavuot is a two-day Jewish
holiday that falls on the Hebrew calendar dates of Sivan 6–7. . .
Shavuot 2018 begins at sundown
on Shabbat, May 19, and concludes at nightfall
on Monday, May 21. The 10
Commandments are read on May 20. chabad.org
My prayer time ran out as my five-year-old granddaughter
needed my attention. As I was about to turn my computer off, I checked my email
and saw a text that I had forwarded but forgot about. It was a prophetic word a
friend sent me. The following is only a small excerpt:
GREAT HARVEST Begins Pentecost 2018
You see on Easter Sunday the Lord told me 50 days on Pentecost Sunday revival & awakening is going to breakthrough & the great harvest was going to start. I prophesied this after Easter. The 50 days would be May 20, 2018.
I set this word aside; yet, here I was coming across it this
day He had led me to read about the Exodus Pentecost!
It would seem the Spirit of the Lord is reiterating that the
SEASON
OF THE OVERCOMER—the time of the Great Harvest—is about to begin!
The Great Harvest has a double
meaning, I believe. It is speaking of the end time harvest of souls AND it is
speaking of the 3-PART HARVEST before
the Messiah’s Second Coming to earth. That is why in the above rhema He said,
“LOOK UP!” SEASON OF
THE OVERCOMER
Pentecost Wedding
Today as I sought the Lord further, I remembered that Pentecost
was when יְהֹוָהYĕhovah
MARRIED Israel:
Because God desired a special
people in the earth who would have the glory of God upon them, God called
Abraham and made a covenant with him. The covenant that God made with Abraham
was physical and it was spiritual. This covenant was not only with Abraham but
also with the descendants of Abraham (Genesis 17:7). The physical descendants
of Abraham are the children of Israel. The spiritual descendants of Abraham are
all those who profess Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior (Galatians 3:16,
29). . .
At Mount Sinai, God married the nation of Israel by
betrothing Himself to them (Jeremiah 2:1-3). . . waytozion.org/brideofchrist/chap
7/edchumney
Jeremiah 2:1-3 records that on Shavuot—Pentecost—God betrothed
Himself to (married) Israel. Verse 2 uses the Hebrew word kĕluwlah
(espousal/betrothal) and it is the
ONLY USAGE in the Old Testament!
The Scriptures indicate that it is the Overcoming Church who
will be the Bride of Christ. Will Pentecost 2018 be when the Bride MARRIES the
Heavenly Bridegroom? The Scriptures do not promise this at all, but for the
Lord to bring all this conjoining information to my attention, I know the
Heavenly Wedding cannot be far off and is very much on His mind as it is on
mine!
As my caveat at the end of my blog articles indicates, I do
not pretend to have the end times all figured out. I believe there is a remnant
of people, born of incorruptible seed, who will be snatched up to meet their
King and Bridegroom just BEFORE the sudden
destruction of the wrath of the Lamb (1 Thessalonians 5:3-4).
Rapture Watchers
today posted a summation of world events with excerpts from J.D. Farag's May 10 Urgent Bible
Prophecy Update. J. D. also recommends a movie that is now available on
Amazon Prime called The
Coming Convergence which is about this coming sudden destruction. How long God
chooses to have His Overcomers upon the earth in these turbulent times is
uncertain, but it won’t be much longer!
"The Lord has shown me and many
others within the Body of Christ that the exponential increase in catastrophic
disasters and war will be the impetus for the Great Harvest." Gold
Falling on the Gentiles!
Caveat: This blog is an attempt to
share my spiritual journey and my understanding of the Scriptures. In the past
few years that learning curve has been mostly in eschatology or the study of
the end times. I do not pretend to
have this all figured out. Also, 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.
