I ASKED THE LORD, WHEN IS THE RAPTURE? HE ANSWERED ME!


Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. -James 5:8 KJV

Many things seemed to be pointing to a Hanukkah harpazo but this was not the case—at least not for 2018. So instead perhaps God is setting forth unmistakable markers (as others have mentioned before me) pointing to the two-part coming of Jesus Christ wanting to avoid full disclosure which would benefit the Enemy’s plans.

Rapture is Not a Date It’s an Event!

A video by Godshealer7 End Time Prophecy YT caught my attention this past week. Sister Barbara came out and asked the Lord, “When are we going?” When He answered her, it caused the hair on the back of her neck to stand up. He replied, “When the fire rains down, you’ll come up.” She went on to say that she realized that God’s timing is working on events and that the Rapture is not a date but an event. In other words, it is THE EVENT contingent upon other events happening first.

When the Fire Rains Down You’ll Come Up

In her video Sister Barbara speculates on what the “fire” might refer to, but I believe it is in reference to nuclear missiles which is what several other believers have been shown (see when the missiles come down we go up and also firecharger YTC's 2013 video).

Zechariah 5 gives convincing evidence that “fire” refers to nuclear warheads:

Then I turned and raised my eyes, and saw there a flying scroll.And he said to me, "What do you see?"

So I answered, "I see a flying scroll. Its length [is] twenty cubits and its width ten cubits."

Then he said to me, "This [is] the curse that goes out over the face of the whole earth: 'Every thief shall be expelled,' according [to] this side of [the scroll]; and, 'Every perjurer shall be expelled,' according [to] that side of it." - Zechariah 5:1-3 NKJV

"I will send out [the curse]," says the LORD of hosts; "It shall enter the house of the thief And the house of the one who swears falsely by My name. It shall remain in the midst of his house And consume it, with its timber and stones." - Zechariah 5:4 NKJV
The scroll is translated from the Hebrew word mĕgillah and refers to a single cylinder like that which holds scrolls (see image).  

Verse 4 says this cylinder will enter the house of certain people “And consume it, with its timber and stones.” What do we know of nowadays that is capable of this? Nuclear weapons.

The dimensions of this flying cylinder are similar to those of the warheads on the world’s most prolific nuclear SLBMs (Submarine Launched Ballistic Missile) and other long-range missiles!


Zechariah describes what he is seeing based on what he is familiar with, but he does not know what he is actually looking at as indicated by the next verse:

So I asked, "What [is] it?" And he said, "It [is] a basket that is going forth." He also said, "This [is] their resemblance throughout the earth: "Here [is] a lead disc lifted up, and this [is] a woman sitting inside the basket"; - Zechariah 5:6-7 NKJV

Let me bring your attention to the word translated woman. This comes from the Hebrew word 'ishshah which can be translated as woman or fire offering!

So you see where Sister Barbara’s prophetic word of the fire coming down could very well be referring to nuclear war. An excellent video explaining these verses is NUCLEAR WAR PROPHECY REVEALED!

 
Jubilee Marker


Back in 2017 I too asked the Lord whether He was coming for His Bride that year.

He did not give me a direct “Yes” or “No” answer, but I believe He wanted me to look into the Jubilee. . .

Wikipedia has very interesting information related to the Jubilee:

The Jubilee (Hebrewיובל āl; Yiddishyoyvl) year is the year at the end of seven cycles of shmita (Sabbatical years), and according to Biblical regulations had a special impact on the ownership and management of land in the Land of Israel; there is some debate whether it was the 49th year (the last year of seven sabbatical cycles, referred to as the Sabbath's Sabbath), or whether it was the following (50th) year.[excerpt Wikipedia.org]

            [Excerpt from 2017 Final Jubilee?]


Exactly when the final Jubilee begins and ends is debatable but the Jubilee was celebrated in Jerusalem in 2017 and then Israel’s 70th Anniversary on May 14, 2018. These were definite markers that we are closing in on the end of the fig tree generation!

I do not adhere to the legalistic aspect of the Hebrew roots movement, but have gleaned much from Ed Chumney’s information regarding The Seven Festivals wherein he wrote: “The ultimate fulfillment of the year of Jubilee will take place at the second coming of Messiah”. 


When They Go Up We Go Up

I think Gary at Unsealed, who wrote regarding the December 10 dedication of the Third Temple altar in Was the Covenant of Many Just Made?, is correct that this will go hand in hand with the Antichrist's plans as evidenced by the Pope (my False Prophet candidate) wanting to make Jerusalem the One World Religion Center.

The relationship between the False Prophet and the Antichrist is an interesting one. The Antichrist (political) empowers the False Prophet (religious). But ultimately the False Prophet causes the whole world to worship the Antichrist (Revelation 13:12). The False Prophet also encourages the people of the world to subscribe to the world financial and economic system and to receive the mark of the Beast (Antichrist) which gives them access to the financial system. Thus the global economy, global political authority and global religion become intertwined. This all happens in the name of unity which sounds good but is not. It is a bad unity because it is man-centered and is a unity against the Lord and His Christ. [Excerpt from discerningtheworld.com]

During the night of March 9, 2017, I awoke briefly and saw three python-sized snakes crawling up our bedroom wall. They were side by side and of equal length and width.

“What are You showing me, Lord?” I asked for I realized it was an open vision. The answer came immediately.

“These are the three main religions in the world rising up together. Soon they will entwine with one another to form the New World Religion.”

Today we can especially see how easy it would be for another trio to intertwine— religion, politics, and the economy—into one conglomerate global system controlled by the Antichrist.

The dress rehearsal and dedication of the altar for the Third Temple taking place earlier this week reminded me of another event we may be looking for:

Matthew Patrick Winfrey, a brother in Christ on Youtube who ministers in the Philippines, believes he was shown that “When you see the natural seed of Abraham ascend the natural Mount Zion, know that this is the sign that the spiritual seed of Abraham will ascend to the Heavenly Mount Zion”.

Brother Patrick added that this could either refer to when the Jews will be able to openly pray on the Temple Mount or it may refer to when the building of the Third Temple begins. 2018 Final Signs
  

4.4 Quake at 4:14 AM

I have a younger sister who lives north of Atlanta and she called to tell me how the 4.4 earthquake whose epicenter was in Tennessee woke her at around 4 o’clock that morning. I thought that was very interesting because of the significance of the number four:

. . . The number four always has reference to all that is created. . . . It is the number of things that have a beginning, of things that are made, of material things, and matter itself. It is the number of material completeness.

Four is the number of the great elements—earth, air, fire, and water.
Four are the regions of the earth—north, south, east, and west.
Four are the divisions of the day—morning, noon, evening, and midnight. Or in our Lord's words, when He speaks of His coming at evening, midnight, cock-crowing, or in the morning (Mark 13:35). We are never to put off His coming in our minds beyond tomorrow morning.
Four are the seasons of the year—spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
Four are the great variations of the lunar phases.
Four marks division also. 

In the Apocalypse the same four cherubim are called Swa, "the living creatures" (Rev 4). These announce the Coming One; these sing of creation and of Him who created all things, and for whose pleasure they were created (Rev 4:11). Whenever they speak it is in connection with the earth. These call forth and announce the judgments or plagues (Rev 6) which issue on the ejection of the Usurper from the earth, and the destruction of them which destroy the earth, and in the exaltation and enthronement of Him when all the kingdoms of the world become the kingdom of our Lord and His anointed, and when the LORD God omnipotent reigneth. E. W. Bullinger

“All of creation is groaning. . .” and the groanings are increasing in preparation for the great shaking which will culminate in “THE BIRTH”. My point is—the “baby” is coming and there is nothing that is going to stop it from coming. Braxton-Hicks contractions do not go away but then develop into true labor pains—“as travail upon a woman with child” (1 Thessalonians 5:3).

Occupy!

Oh, dear brethren! If only we understood better who we truly are in Christ Jesus. Recently, I was watching The Miracle—the true story of Herb Brooks, the player-turned-coach who led the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team to victory over the seemingly invincible Russian squad.

I was drifting into sleep when the movie reached the part where the coach (played by Kirk Russell) was giving a stirring pre-game speech to his team and said, “You were born to be hockey players”; but what I heard was as though the Holy Spirit shouted, “YOU WERE BORN TO BE OCCUPIERS!”

"You were born to be hockey players--I mean OCCUPIERS!"

I literally jumped up off the couch at this!

When I looked up where this word is used in Scripture, I found only ONE place in the New Testament:

And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy [pragmateuomai] till I come. - Luke 19:13 KJV

Pragmateuomai means “to carry on a business”. This reminds me of what the young Jesus said to His earthly parents when they went looking for Him after He came up missing:

And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions. - Luke 2:46 KJV

And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing. And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business? - Luke 2:48-49 KJV

I don’t know about you, but I want to hear “Well done!” when I come before the Throne of God! As I wrote in Is the Rapture Earned?, our salvation will not be judged, but our works will be.

We were born to be the “occupying power” on earth, to be joint heirs with Christ, to rule and reign with Him during the Millennial Kingdom, and then who knows all that is in store for Eternity!

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together. For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. - Romans 8:16-19 KJV

For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only [they], but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, [to wit], the redemption of our body. - Romans 8:22-23 KJV

Dispensational gears are changing--Do you have your ticket?
In the meantime we are to live like this is who we are! As our Brother Todd shared--When You've Done All You Can to Stand, THEN STAND! Stand boldly! Stand in faith KNOWING He keeps His promises! I fully agree with what Todd said:

“You can see the dispensational gears starting to collide and grind because what we have is the next dispensation starting to churn and the Age of Grace starting to END!”

We have MUCH TO LOOK UPWARD FOR AND FORWARD TO, SAINTS!

O GATHERING! O JUBILEE!

why-120-jubilee-year-is-important.blogspot.com
Hitting the Wall

“Lord, I’m just so tired. I know many of my brethren feel the same way.” As I honestly went to Him this morning, the thought came to me that I/we had “hit the wall”. “In endurance sports such as cycling and running, hitting the wall or the bonk is a condition of sudden fatigue and loss of energy. . .”

The hardest mile in a marathon is the mile you hit “the wall”. quora.com

Life as a true follower of the Lord Jesus Christ is a marathon and a test of our endurance, so it should not come as a surprise to us if we experience the bonk.

As I was studying this, the question came to my mind, “I wonder if women “hit the wall” during childbirth?” I had not experienced it with my pregnancies but that didn’t mean it couldn’t happen to others. Sure enough, I found it!

Hitting the wall is the not-so-technical term for the moment when labor reaches a point of intensity that's totally overwhelming. It might be brief and mom rides the wave and gets past it, but it might also grab hold and not let up. [Excerpt from fitpregnancy.com]



This analogy of The Tribulation and a woman in travail reveals more and more of what those of us who are watching for His return are experiencing in the way of sympathetic groans in anticipation of labor/travail beginning.

For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. - Romans 8:17-19 KJV

And not only [they], but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, [to wit], the redemption of our body. - Romans 8:23 KJV

Let me encourage you, dear brothers and sisters if you have “hit the wall”. For as saints of the Most High God sealed with His Spirit, pushing through this phase of fatigue—enduring the trials of life—will result in eternal rewards!

Blessed [is] the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. - James 1:12 KJV

The King James Version of the Bible translates the Greek word peirasmos as “temptation”; however, looking at the Outline of Biblical Usage we see this word is referring to “an experiment, attempt, trial, proving”. The trials of this life do NOT compare to what He has in store for us! Just picturing in my mind the new eternal body I will be receiving—“redemption of our body”—as I fly up to meet my oh so precious Lord is enough to keep me going!

2018—Year of the Rapture!?!

The impression in my spirit when I heard the prophecy given by Ken Peters contained within the God’s Roadmap to the End video was one of great encouragement! I disagree with Ken’s interjected views on salvation; however, right after he makes his interjected remarks about how we’ve been sold a bill of goods related to “once saved always saved” it is as though the Holy Spirit corrected Ken. For after he makes his remarks and then goes back into reading the prophecy (at around the 23:15 minute mark) look what is said:


Do the things that make your Lord a Lord of pleasure for you—a Master who smiles when He looks upon you while you work. No, your work shall never ever obtain your salvation, but your earthly works will determine the pleasure of the King and where you are in the midst of His presence.



Later on in the prophecy he speaks of a tidal wave and says some will lose their first love. He is correct that a person can love Jesus and not be saved. You must confess Jesus Christ as your Lord and believe God raised him from the dead in order to be sealed with the Holy Spirit (Romans 10:9)! (See also Who are the Tribulation Saints?)



Despite Brother Ken Peter’s salvation views, I believe he received a true message from God. In this prophetic word, God encourages us to look for the eternal glory! Let me share some more excerpts from that rhema that stood out to me (some of which Jaco Prinsloo highlighted in his video also):

O GATHERING! O JUBILEE!” says the Lord.

You will see a sweeping across America in the next three years [2015-2018]. You will see great devastation upon your land . . .

But, My people, you are in a safe place. You’re in a very, very safe place with Me.

You must not fear what will happen to America.

My Father is preparing great crowns of rewards. And very, very soon I will be your soon-coming KING.

For you are called to be Overcomers. You have been destined by My Father to sit with the 24 elders and make great decisions and heavenly strategies in the new earth and heaven to come.

Do you not see that you are called to things beyond this limitation on earth? Come on, My people, you must see into a new dimension! You must look beyond your trials and your problems.

Great darkness has been sent upon your land. For those in high civil authorities have given this nation over to the ways of darkness.

But I the Lord will REDEEM MY PEOPLE. I did not come to redeem governments. . . I came to covenant with a people that are CALLED OUT. So be the CALLED-OUT ONES, says the Lord.

This is a holy day that you will never forget as time progresses. As time begins to come faster and faster YOU WILL LOOK BACK ON THIS DAY, THE 1ST OF NOVEMBER. You will look back even as the clocks were changed and TIME BEGAN ANEW and you will say, “That was the day of the HOLY CONVOCATION—the day the Lord set me aside and chose me for a special work.”

A great tide is coming—like a TIDAL WAVE that pulls people out to the sea. Some of My people will be pulled out to the sea and never return to the depth of their first love.

This land is being weighed in the balances. . . your prayers will dictate the next three years [2015-2018]

This is A DAY OF SEPARATION says the Lord. . . COME OUT, COME OUT FROM THIS WORLD and be SEPARATE

The Lord says, IN THREE YEARS YOU WILL SEE THE UPHEAVAL OF ALL NATIONS
[I’m either the biggest false prophet that ever lived . . . to say that—the upheaval of all nations, all nations in three years. If you study end times prophecy you know exactly what that is pointing to—it has to be
THE RETURN OF CHRIST!]

YOU MUST BE READY

But for My people as Isaiah prophesied, ARISE AND SHINE FOR YOUR LIGHT HAS COME AND THE GLORY OF THE LORD WILL RISE UPON YOU!

My Thoughts

In the excerpts listed above, I added the years in brackets and words that I wished to emphasize I put in bold. It is easy to see the correlation between most of the emboldened words and the catching away of the Overcoming Church. Three times Ken Peters prophesies about the next three years—2015-2018—and that it relates to “the upheaval of all nations”.

Then the last section of words in brackets are Ken’s own thoughts where he admits that this must be referring to the return of Christ in 2018!

Redemption

Near the beginning of the prophetic word, Jubilee is mentioned and then later “I will redeem My people”.

Redemption is another key component to the Jubilee as outlined in Leviticus Chapter 25:

In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession. - Leviticus 25:13 KJV
And in all the land of your possession ye shall grant a redemption for the land. - Leviticus 25:24 KJV

This redemption could not be done by just anybody—it had to be done by a kinsman (Leviticus 25:25). We see this in the story of Ruth when Naomi seeks to have Boaz marry her daughter-in-law. [Excerpt from 2017 Final Jubilee]

November 1—Holy Convocation

Ken Peters spoke this word to his church family on November 1, 2015. It was the day that the clocks went back to Standard Time. In the Spring, we “spring forward” an hour and in the Autumn, we “fall back” an hour. (This year the clocks “fall back” on November 4.) When thinking of this phrase I couldn’t help connect it to the "falling away" of 2 Thessalonians and that it relates to how #The Last Trump is also a military signal to call the troops to “fall back” or disengage the enemy and go home to rest.

Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; - 2 Thessalonians 2:3 KJV

When Brother Ken said, “. . . YOU WILL LOOK BACK ON THIS DAY, THE 1ST OF NOVEMBER. . . and you will say, “That was the day of the HOLY CONVOCATION”, immediately I thought of how the Rapture is referred to in the KJV as “our gathering together” which is translated from the Greek word episynagōgē  which is Strongs G1996 and means “a complete collection; especially a Christian meeting (for worship):—assembling (gathering) together”.

Will Brother Ken’s fellow parishioners always remember November 1, 2015, because of this prophetic word given or will November 1st always be remembered because it is when the Lord will gather us together in 2018 to always be with Him? I am not convinced that we will be shown the actual day of the Resurrection/Rapture of the Bride, but I will truly be perplexed if it does not occur this year.

Tidal Wave

The tidal wave section of this prophetic word through Ken Peters caught my attention because of the warning dreams I was given.

MANY others have announced similar warnings. Recently Watchman On The Wall 88 shared his tidal wave dreams (Another Massive Waves Dream) and also that Emmanuel Macron will set forth a Middle East peace deal if Trump does not follow through with his.

Just as all prophetic words given must be judged ALL dreams must be judged, but God DOES SPEAK THROUGH DREAMS to His people—especially WARNINGS. A Spirit-filled disciple of Christ who has a genuine calling as a watchman will be shown future danger so that a warning can go out and people are given a chance to repent! This ministry is in full swing in these last days!

And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: - Acts 2:17 KJV


The Spirit of the Lord has not given me a great deal of revelation of upcoming catastrophes, but I know I am called to be one of His watchmen. And I too have received dreams of warning regarding coming tsunamis:


. . . A prophetic word through Kevin Mirasi came the closest to what I received from the Lord. In the video Tsunami in USA, California Earthquake, Russian Attack and Rapture, he says that he doesn't know whether the rapture is immediately during the tsunami or shortly after. This matches what I reported:

Beloved, HEADS UP! The impression in my spirit is we might see Lk 21:25 (the sea roaring) b4 or at the same time we are raptured. IF it occurs I believe it will be a great wave caused by earthquake, asteroid, or nuclear detonation. I ask for forgiveness ahead of time if I am wrong. But would rather risk this than fail in my watch. I have been wrong b4 but at times I have been hearing right. Seek the Lord about this message, of course... [Excerpt from The Sea Roaring]

Day of Separation

There is a principle of separation in the Scriptures and the Rapture of the Overcoming Man Child is one of those separations that will occur. (See the ‘Principle of Separation’ section in  Saved From Wrath.)

Arise! Shine!

Near the end of the rhema, Ken quotes Isaiah 60:1 but ends it with “and the glory of the LORD will rise upon you”.

Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. - Isaiah 60:1 KJV

I had never thought of this section of Scripture as relating to the Rapture until I listened to Watchwoman YT Channel’s 8-28-18 video Why Darkness MUST Come Before the Rapture.

Her explanation of what God showed her parallels the conclusion I have come to—that the fall of Satan would be almost simultaneous with our rise to meet the Lord in the air! She also quotes all of Chapter 60 of Isaiah pointing out that “darkness” is mentioned within these verses.

This is the first of two related videos. Here is her synopsis of them posted with her second video:


This is the SECOND of two messages. The two darknesses come together at the Rapture of the Church. The Lord’s dark glory clouds restrain the evil darkness which comes after we go out. If you go back and listen to the first video, the message is consistent. I said rolling dark clouds bringing in (a second) darkness. The first darkness which we WILL SEE is DARK clouds hiding the Lord’s Glory. The second the EVIL darkness that comes after we leave. The Lord RESTRAINS the evil darkness until his children are taken out of harm’s way. Exodus (Rapture) then Evil Darkness: Reversal of Exodus Plagues: Vision, Word, Scriptural Revelation

watchfortheday.org/OctoberUpdate2
Watchwoman also parallels today’s events with Jeremiah 13:15-21 as Sean Osbourne did in his recent post:

Within Jeremiah's prophetic word from God there is very strong evidence that a generation is 70 years. . . Israel has just completed the 70th year since its modern-day return from exile. The LORD will move swiftly now with His plan for the redemption of all Israel. [Comment by Sean Osbourne re. his October 16, 2018 article at eschatologytoday.blogspot.com]

As Sandy Armstrong said, “It will never be the end of the 120th Jubilee again! It will never be the 70th Birthday of Israel again!” and “Nothing happened at 80 years in the Bible. It was always at 70.” (He was, of course, referring to Psalm 90:10.)

Referring back to my original analogy of marathons—I know this article has gotten too long! So much is happening it is difficult to condense it all!

SO HANG IN THERE, DEAR BRETHREN!

The ribbon of the finish line is in sight!

. . . The hardest mile in a marathon will depend on many things including your training, your pace, the course, and many other variables. Despite that, the hardest mile in a marathon is worth enjoying and remembering forever since it will be totally worth it. quora.com








P.S. Please refer to Gary's informative article at Unsealed.org for an update related to The Middle East Peace Plan. And in the Comments Section, Gary added this link: US to reveal ‘Deal of the Century’ to Israel next week.

Billy Graham, Philadelphia, and a Passover Exodus


Even a Broken Clock…

Some of my readers might be wondering why I have not yet commented on the significance of Billy Graham’s death. At the time I first heard about it, I did believe it signaled the coming end to the Age of Grace. I wanted to wait, however, before sharing my two cents. I’m glad I did.

As I listened to what others in the Body of Christ were saying, I realized that my first impression may be correct—that the Age of Grace is quickly coming to an end and the catching away of the Church Bride may be this Passover.

Yes, I don’t blame you if you are rolling your eyes at that statement because I (and many others) have been talking about Christ coming for His Bride for over two years now; but even a broken clock tells the correct time twice a day! In other words, one day we are going to get the date right!

Why Passover?

The harpazo of those who are in Christ may or may not occur on a feast day. No one really knows the exact timing of the rapture, but let me share with you some extremely intriguing information I recently learned.

Promised Land Entry on Passover

Paul of the REVELATIONCHAPTER12dotCOM YT Channel pointed out that the children of Israel left Egypt on a Passover and entered the promised land on a Passover in his Considering a Passover Rapture - Part 2 video. This hit me square between the eyes when I heard it!

But why would I think that because the children of Israel got to enter their promised land on Passover mean necessarily that the overcoming church gets to enter the promised land of eternity THIS Passover?
watchfortheday.org

Billy Graham a Type of Moses

It was something Anne Graham Lotz said at her father’s funeral:

“My father’s death was as significant as his life and his life was very significant . . . February 21, 2018, was the date God chose to take my father home. Why? It is the day that Jews focus on Scripture readings that focus on the death of Moses. Moses was a great liberator. He brought millions of people out of bondage to slavery, got them to the edge of the promised land, then God took him to Heaven. And then God brought Joshua to bring them into the promised land to take them home.

My father also is a great liberator. He brought millions of people out of bondage to sin, and he gets us to the edge of Heaven, the edge of the promised land, and God has called him home. And then could it be that God is going to bring Joshua to lead us into the Promised Land—lead us into Heaven. And do you know what the New Testament name is for Joshua? It’s JESUS.


And I believe this is a shot across the bow from Heaven. God is saying, ‘Wake up world! Jesus is coming! Jesus is coming!” Billy Graham's Funeral - Anne Graham Lotz




2018 The Year of Redemption

Year to Fly Like an Eagle?

Last Friday I watched the Hal Lindsey Report Update _ Playing With Fire ( Feb 24, 2018 ) video. Near the end of his report Hal Lindsey spoke on how the NFL Patriots’ team had a Character Coach who helps estimate the character of the players before they are drafted and helps develop better character in the players already on the team.

I thought back on that recent Super Bowl Game and how two teams made up of several Christians (according to what someone told me) ended up at the championship game—the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles. Both teams performed brilliantly, but the win went to the Eagles. A prophetic realization dawned on me—the Patriots were symbolic of the church who will lose; that is, be left behind when the harpazo/rapture occurs; and the winners—the Philadelphia Eagles were symbolic of the overcoming church who will fly to meet the Lord in the air!

Only those who are of the Philadelphia church will fly as eagles in the rapture:

And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; -
I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. -
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. - Revelation 3:7, 8, 10 KJV

Those who only appear to be of the Body of Christ who are not born again, their patriotism is to themselves and not to the Lord and are among the six churches warned by Jesus in Revelation Chapters 2 and 3! (To understand more about this please read Who are the Tribulation Saints?)

Along with the myriad of other signs in the heavens and the earth, here was yet another sign proclaiming the soon rapture!

50th Year--Jubilee

This past Saturday I was loving on the Lord and singing to Him and He gave me a verse to look up—Leviticus 25:17. As I read it I realized it was the chapter about the jubilee year. “But why verse 17, Lord?” I asked.

Ye shall not therefore oppress one another [financially oppress is the context here]; but thou shalt fear thy God: for I [am] the LORD your God. - Leviticus 25:17 KJV

I believe He spoke to my spirit that the “17” referred to God sounding the trumpet of Jubilee in 2017, for Leviticus 17:8-10 records that in the 49th year the Jubilee trumpet is to be sounded then the actual redemptive year is the 50th year (our 2018).

Informedchristians teaches in Redemption Reminders about this being the year of redemption adding that March is the month of money redemption. Jesus was our kinsman redeemer. His death on the cross was the payment of our redemption, but He must come back to redeem our bodies and take us home:

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son [to be] the propitiation for our sins. - 1 John 4:10 KJV

In whom ye also [trusted], after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, - Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory. - Ephesians 1:13-14 KJV

The rapture is the day the Overcoming Church receives bodily redemption:

For our conversation [citizenship] is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: - Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. - Philippians 3:20-21 KJV

When They Go Up We Go Up!

To top everything off, today as I took a break from writing to get my lunch I heard the most exciting news on Paul Begley’s YT channel--Prophecy Alert--Jews Allowed Prayer on Temple Mount!!!  [My apologies! In my excitement I posted the above without my usual double checking. Paul Begley later posted a Retraction Temple Mount will remain status quo in Jerusalem. Let us continue to watch Israel, especially Jerusalem, for much may happen still in a succinct amount of time.] 

Why this is so exciting to me as a follower of Christ is because:

Matthew Patrick Winfrey, a brother in Christ on Youtube who ministers in the Philippines, believes he was shown that “When you see the natural seed of Abraham ascend the natural Mount Zion, know that this is the sign that the spiritual seed of Abraham will ascend to the Heavenly Mount Zion”.

Brother Patrick added that this could either refer to when the Jews will be able to openly pray on the Temple Mount or it may refer to when the building of the Third Temple begins. [Excerpt from 2018 Final Signs.]

This might be what Brother Patrick’s above word indicates—that when we see the Jews being allowed to go up to the Temple Mount to pray know that THIS IS THE SIGN OF THE COMING RAPTURE OF THE OVERCOMING CHURCH!!!

Woohoo! Come Lord Jesus Come!





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.
