Just as an expectant mother begins to have Braxton-Hicks
contractions or signs of labor and knows it won’t be long until the birth of
her child, so does the Overcoming Man Child see the end time signs and know it
won’t be long until the harpazo
occurs. The Old
Testament prophesies of this coming time of travail/labor. It also
prophesies of a gathering that is to occur before
the travail comes upon the world:
Gather yourselves together; gather together, undesirable nation, before the
decree takes effect and the day passes like chaff, before the burning of the LORD's anger overtakes
you, before the day of the LORD's anger overtakes
you. Seek the LORD, all you humble of the earth, who carry out what He commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be concealed on the day of
the LORD's anger"
(Zeph. 2:1–3, HCSB, emphasis mine).
All right,
so a nation not longed for, or undesired, is told to gather together—and this
is when we are hit with a barrage of before's:
1) Before the decree takes effect...
2) Before the burning of the LORD's
anger...
3) Before the Day of the LORD's
anger...
Whenever
you see repetition in Scripture, pay attention! The purpose of repetition is to
emphasize something very strongly, especially a three-fold usage of a term
like terem (Heb.
"before") in Zephaniah 2:2 (note
also the three-fold repetition of "seek, seek, seek" in 2:3). Unsealed.com/Zephaniah2
The event known as the Rapture--that is to occur before the decree takes effect and before the Day of the Lord’s anger--is only the first part of the Messiah’s coming in the last days. Robert Breaker explains
The Two Comings of Jesus Christ and takes
you through the Scriptures to show how His first coming was in two parts and
that His second coming will be in two parts!
For a 15-minute description of this, check out Chuck Missler's teaching on the Rapture
versus the Second Coming of Christ.
My point is—the “baby” is coming and there is nothing that
is going to stop it from coming.
Braxton-Hicks contractions subside in the expectant mother,
but they do not go away until true
labor pains begin. The signs and natural disasters are not going to lessen—they will only increase! May we glorify our
Lord as we patiently endure whatever pre-labor pains we may have to face before
He catches us away!
Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the
coming of the Lord draweth nigh. - James 5:8 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.
The Revelation of
Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which
must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified [it] by his angel unto his
servant John: Blessed [is] he that readeth, and they that hear the words of
of this prophecy, and keep those
things which are written therein: for the time [is] at hand. - Revelation 1:1, 3
KJV
Church Members Left Behind?
In Jesus’ letter to
the seven churches He explains that there are those in churches who are worthy
to escape and those who are not! Those who are worthy are described as overcomers.
How can it be that
there are individuals in a church that will not be raptured? It is my belief
that there are many, many people that call themselves Christians but who have
NOT made Jesus Christ the Lord of their life. I know because I was one of them.
I had been raised in church and even loved the Lord Jesus. But here’s the crux
of the matter—it wasn’t until I was 23 years old that I confessed with my mouth
that I wanted to live my life for Jesus Christ.
Do you see the
difference?
You are not to be
the lord and master over your own life—you must make Jesus the Lord over your
life so that the Holy Spirit may enter and seal you!
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord
Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead,
thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness;
and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. - Romans 10:9-10 KJV
You may be part of
a church/ekklesia/assembly
but not necessarily bound for Heaven! Those who wait to confess Jesus as their
Lord after the Rapture will be the saints who will endure the Tribulation as
recorded in the Book of Revelation:
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power
was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. - Revelation 13:7
KJV
Who are the Overcomers?
So who are these
overcomers? They are individuals who have confessed from their heart Romans
10:9 and have incorruptible seed within them:
For whatsoever is born [gennaō]
of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the
world, [even] our faith. - 1 John 5:4 KJV
Being born again [anagennaō],
not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth
and abideth for ever. - 1 Peter 1:23 KJV
Who is Worthy?
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be
accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to
stand before the Son of man. - Luke 21:36 KJV
In a recent video
by RAPTURE WATCHERS it is explained
how true believers are sealed with the Holy Spirit.
And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are
sealed unto the day of redemption. - Ephesians 4:30 KJV
The incorruptible
seed of 1 Peter 1:23 is the Spirit of God within the believer—it is
Christ in you the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27).
It is because of the gift of the Holy Spirit
within us that we are worthy to escape. Only the Holy Spirit makes us
overcomers!
Seven times Christ
warns the seven churches. But He also makes seven promises to those who
overcome:
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
~ shall not be hurt of the second death. - Revelation 2:11 KJV
~ will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in
the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth
[it]. - Revelation 2:17 KJV
~ and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: -
Revelation 2:26 KJV
~ the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name
out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before
his angels. - Revelation 3:5 KJV
~ will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and
I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God,
[which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I
will write upon him] my new name. - Revelation 3:12 KJV
~ will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set
down with my Father in his throne. - Revelation 3:21 KJV
Redemption Day=Escape!
Either Jesus is lying in Luke 21:36 or there is an escape
from what is referred to as the Tribulation.
There are strong scriptural inferences
that the Rapture will occur before the Tribulation begins. A couple of those
are found in Jesus’ Olivet Discourse as recorded in Luke 21. Jesus stated that
when the end time signs “begin to take place,” we
are to look up, for our redemption will be drawing near (Luke 21:28). Note
that the redemption will come not at the end of the signs, but as they begin to
take place. Jesus then added that believers should pray earnestly that they
might “escape” the great tribulation that is coming
upon “all those who dwell on the face of the earth” (Luke 21:36).christinprophecy.org
Thy dead [men] shall live, [together with] my dead body
shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew [is as]
the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead. - Isaiah 26:19 KJV
This, of course, speaks of
resurrection. Notice the phrase “together with my dead body shall they
arise”—this reminded me of how Christ as the Head of the Body has already
arisen but one day the “dead in Christ” (His Body) will arise! Remember
Lot's Wife
The day of our redemption is our escape day via the harpazo.
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we
which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them
which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with
a shout, with the voice of
the archangel, and with the trump
of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:Then we which are alive
[and] remain shall be caught up [harpazō]
together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we
ever be with the Lord. - 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17 KJV
Those who wait to confess Jesus as their Lord after the Rapture will have missed the greatest escape of all times, but Jesus in the Book of Revelation promises that “he that overcometh” does escape!
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
3:10 KJV
The words "keep" and "from" are translated from the Greek
words tēreō ek. According to The Master's Seminary Journal,
page 222 of the PDF:
Thayer says that
when this verb [tēreō] is used with en it means “to
cause one to persevere or stand firm in a thing”; while when it is used
with ek it means “by guarding to cause one to escape in safety
out of.” Since ek is used here it would indicate that
John is promising a removal from the sphere of testing, not a preservation
through it. This is further substantiated by the use of the words “the
hour.” God is not only guarding from the trials but from the very hour itself
when these trials will come on those earth dwellers. (To understand verses that
promise an escape read Saved From
Wrath.)
For when they shall
say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail
upon a woman with child; and they shall
not escape. - 1 Thessalonians 5:3 KJV
But ye, brethren, are not in
darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. - 1 Thessalonians 5:4 KJV
For God hath not appointed us to
wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
Wherefore comfort yourselves
together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. - 1 Thessalonians 5:9,11 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.
Like the mercury in a thermometer raises gradually before
sunrise then suddenly as the rays from the sun warm it, so it seems goes the prophetic urgency the closer we get to
the date of the super blue blood moon!
If you have not read Super
Blue Blood Moon--Israel's Omen yet, please do so in order to understand
what I write here. In that article I shared my dream of the three super moons and
that the third one occurs this coming Wednesday and will be a super blue blood
moon. I had that dream confirmed again for me at the Endtime Dream & Vision
YT Channel’s November 10, 2016, video RAPTURE
MOONS! REVELATION 12 SIGN!
If you live in
North America or the Hawaiian Islands, this lunar eclipse will be visible in
your sky before
sunrise on January 31.
As I’ve said before, there is no definitive Rapture sign in
Scripture; however, many in the Body of Christ have been awakened to the
nearness of His coming for His Bride! God waits to turn His attention back to
Israel when “… she which travaileth
hath brought forth” (Micah 5:3). In other words, the Rapture of those who
are in Christ must occur before God deals with Israel in turning her back to
Him through believing on His Son as their true Messiah.
Splitting Jerusalem=Splitting
USA
But will God in His great mercy wait until calamity has
struck that awakens the unsaved before He removes the Overcoming Church? Another
January 31 event may be related to this:
The
European Union and Norway plan to hold an urgent meeting of the Ad Hoc Liaison
Committee in Brussels Wednesday to address the Palestinian funding crisis, Gaza
and the stalled Israeli-Palestinian peace process. jpost.com
According to a January 22, 2018, report by reuters.com,
the European Union assured President Mahmoud Abbas it supported his ambition to
have East Jerusalem as capital of a Palestinian state. If this comes to
fruition at the January 31 meeting, the United States will suffer a devastating
blow. Why do I say this?
The United States has led the way in the New World Order
plan to divide Israel. In the Why
is America Suffering? post I quoted J. D. Farag who explained that the
United States has suffered severe weather due to its efforts to divide Israel
by way of giving up land for peace. Then I shared the warning from John Fenn that 2 hurricanes would be followed by 3
earthquakes. Even earlier than these articles, I have posted what the
Spirit of the Lord has shown me of a
coming great shaking and that well-known men of God have prophesied the
U.S. will suffer its land being divided by an earthquake if it is instrumental
in dividing Jerusalem. Recently J. D. Farag mentioned
how this may be part of President Donald Trump’s peace deal.
A number of known men
of God have shared their dreams and visions related to this such as John
Kilpatrick, Shane Warren, John Paul Jackson and Sundar Selvaraj, but probably
the first was David Wilkerson back in 1973:
The
United States is going to experience, in the not-too-distant future, the most
tragic earthquake in its history…I am not at all convinced that this earthquake
will take place in California. In fact, I believe it is going to take place
where it is least expected. (The Vision and Beyond by David Wilkerson, page 28. Also
available at endtimemanna.org
PDF.)
NOW through
February 6, there has been an EARTHQUAKE WATCH for the New Madrid fault line issued
by Dutchsinse, using solid science. An
excerpt of his forecast can be heard at BIG
EARTHQUAKE predicted THIS WEEK.
East Coast Tsunami?
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. The Sea
Roaring
Additionally, some
have predicted that when the New Madrid earthquake occurs, it will cause the East
coast tsunami of which so many, including myself, have had prophetic dreams about.
To review go to The
Final Tsunami Warning?
Ready in Season and Out
Beloved, all we can
do is watch and pray!
This urgency in the Body of Christ may or may not point to
the Rapture of the Overcoming Church. Barry Scarbrough summarizes much of what
he is hearing from the brethren in his video Urgent Warning! SOMETHING is Coming on Tu
B'Shvat!
It may be that we will see extraordinary prophetic events before
our blessed HOPE. We may be called on to minister to people with every
resource at our disposal meaning our spiritual and physical resources.
Let us be ready in season and out of season (2 Timothy 4:2)!
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.
And there shall be
signs [sēmeion]
in the sun, and in the moon, and
in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea
and the waves roaring; - Luke 21:25 KJV
Y’shua, our Jesus, said there
would be signs in the sun, moon, and stars. Did anybody have any idea, though,
that there would be so many signs!
And there appeared a
great wonder [sēmeion]
in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet,
and upon her head a crown of twelve stars: - Revelation 12:1 KJV
Going by what the Lord God has done in the past, the
2014-2015 blood moon tetrad is a 2-year warning signal for a significant event
related to the nation of Israel.
The last series
of four total lunar eclipses occurred in 1967--the year Israel recaptured
Jerusalem. The tetrad before that? Well, it was in 1948--the year Israel became
a nation. In 1492, during the Spanish Inquisition when the Jews were expelled
from Spain on the 9th of Av, there was another tetrad of blood moons occurring
on feast days. It was also the year Christopher
Columbus, who was secretly a Jew, sailed to America. The
Divine Appointment
As my regular readers know, I believe the next big event for
Israel will be a major war. Those who are in Christ may or may not see this war
before we are gathered. (For more information on this subject please read This Means
War!)
Another Blood Moon?
Did you hear there will be a super blue blood moon at the end of this month? Could
this upcoming January 31 total lunar eclipse be the final blood moon spoken of
by the prophet Joel?
The sun shall be
turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the
terrible day of the LORD come. - Joel 2:31 KJV
With Israel’s “final” anniversary coming up on May 14, 2018,
with their 70th Birthday, all these signs could be pointing to the end
of the
"fig tree generation"!
Verily I say unto you,
This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled. - Luke 21:32 KJV
When Missiles Come
Down We Go Up
Everyone has probably heard about the so-called false nuclear
attack alarm Hawaii experienced recently. However, were you aware that Japan experienced
the same thing three days later?
Paul Begley reported that “Trump Briefed At Pentagon About Hawaii
Missile Crisis”. Reliable sources informed brother Paul Begley that there
actually was a nuclear missile launched via a submarine towards Hawaii and again
towards Japan but that the United States shot them down.
On a Greg Hunter program Dr. Dave Janda's sources informed
him the attack was via a “renegade” China military sub.
Scripture does not give definite indications or signs of
when the 1 Cor. 15:52 catching away of the overcoming church will occur. The
Scriptures do give events related to Israel’s coming time of travail—Jacob’s
Trouble. This is the period many, including myself, refer to as The Tribulation
where the natural seed of Abraham will suffer but NOT the spiritual seed of
Abraham.
“Jacob” was part of the patriarch Abraham’s lineage whose
bloodline lead to the birth of the Messiah.
Abraham
was promised a seed who would be as the stars of heaven. He was also promised a
seed who would be as the sand upon the sea shore. Two seeds: a Godly seed, and
an earthly, carnal, fleshly seed. newfoundationspubl.org/seed.htm
Just as the Lord God renamed Abram to Abraham, He renamed
Jacob to Israel in Chapter 32 of Genesis and again reminded him of the change in Chapter 35. God gave
Abram and Jacob each new names after making a covenant with them. The “natural”
name was “Jacob” and the new or “spiritual” name became “Israel”. So when
referring to the “natural seed” of Abraham the name Jacob is used. This is why
I believe The Tribulation is a time related to trouble for the natural seed of Abraham and that is why
it is specifically referred to as Jacob’s
Trouble:
For thus saith the
LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. - Ask ye
now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every
man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are
turned into paleness? - Alas! for that day [is] great, so that none [is] like
it: it [is] even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
- Jeremiah 30:5-7 KJV
This
period of time will be Israel's most trying time ever... There shall be great
tribulation in Israel such as never was since there was a nation (Daniel 12:1).
It will also be a time when G-d will ultimately judge sin and all the nations
on the earth. Through it, the nation of Israel will be physically saved from
total destruction by G-d, and will, as a nation, accept Yeshua as the Messiah.
"...But he shall be saved out of it" (Jeremiah 30:7)...[excerpt from
page 113 of The Seven Festivals of the Messiah by Edward Chumney]
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.
Unsealed.org just wrote about how there has been a Fundamental
Change On The Temple Mount Less Than 4 Months From Israel's 70th Anniversary
because Jewish worshipers have begun showing an increasing determination to have
the right to openly worship on the Temple Mount—a right that was stripped from
them as part of the 1967 agreement that gave the Jordanian Waqf control of the
Temple Mount.
Only Father Knows
It is exhilarating to see all that is happening to fulfill
prophecy. Is this the year we go Home? Only our Heavenly Father knows for sure and I will rest in that knowledge…
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.
“We’re in a season of miracles.” The words spilled out of my
mouth to my sister Kim as we shared concerns about family members as the
holiday season approached.
“I realize that Christmas is referred to in this way, but it
is coming into my spirit that we have entered a season of miracles and that we
will soon see them come to pass in our families,” I continued.
That was before Christmas, but then I found myself saying
this again to a home fellowship group this past Sunday. Then lo and behold I
started hearing it from other sources.
Paul Begley shared in his January 4thProphecy Alert: "18 Things To Watch
For In 2018" that 2018 is to be a YEAR OF MIRACLES for the remnant
church (those who truly love and live for Jesus Christ). He added that it is a
time of EXTREME FAVOR towards the remnant church in the way of finances, divine
healings, and loved ones coming to the Lord.
Now I have heard “the year of favor” prophesied before and
did not see the manifestation of it but I AM EXPECTING TO SEE IT THIS TIME!
House Churches
Much of the remnant church is meeting in homes; and in
countries such as Iran where Christianity is forbidden, they meet in secret. Millions—yes
MILLIONS—of Muslims are making Christ their Lord. Tens of thousands are coming
to Christ in Africa and millions in India! J. D. Farag in his Mid-East Prophecy Update – January
7th, 2018 reported that it is estimated across the globe followers of Jesus
are increasing by more than 80,000 per day!!
Not all house churches move in the liberty of the Spirit of
Christ, but most of them formed for just that reason—to freely worship, pray,
and minister by the Holy Spirit and not be confined by man-made religious programs
and controlling leaders.
If you do not understand what that is like, my sister shared
with me an excellent video that explains what it means to walk by the Spirit by
Chris Blackeby called Living from Heaven.
I have never heard this young man speak before, but I highly recommend this
particular teaching he did.
My favorite quote from him is: “Jesus hasn’t come to make
you a better person—He’s come to replace you.”
Wow! That’s walking by the Spirit in a nutshell—to be so
likeminded with the Spirit of Christ within you that it is as though He has
replaced you.
One of the first times my husband Tom and I experienced
being ‘replaced’ by Christ was when we were asked to minister to a couple in
their home. Before leaving, we held each other’s hand to pray and immediately the
Spirit of the Lord gave me a vision of a great fire. I shared the vision with
Tom and said, “Our God is a consuming fire! He has gone before us to make way
for His work.”
This was the encouragement we needed for we had been told
some fearful things about the husband. Their little house was at the foot of a small
mountain. When the door was opened, it was very dark inside but with my spiritual
eyes I could see little imp-like demons scattering all over the place.
“Oh no! HE’S here!” they screamed, but only I heard them.
That was when I realized the spiritual realm does not see us in our flesh when
we come in the name and power of Y’shua Ha Moshiach, our Jesus—they see HIM!
This is our goal as disciples of Jesus Christ. This is how our God will go before us so that we will see this SEASON OF MIRACLES!
Oh, before I go I just remembered something. It was
wintertime when Tom and I went to that little house. Because of our obedience
to go (we were actually quite afraid to go), we saw remarkable deliverance
and healing by our wonderful God AND the couple came to salvation. As we drove back home, I turned to look back
at the little house now in the distance and it was snowing. Nowhere else was
the snow falling—it was gracefully enveloping only the little house as though it were in its own glorious snow globe!
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.
