Erasing the Line in the Sand for a 2019 September Rapture


Final Approach

This strange season we are in now—the intense watching season—is something no other generation of believers has experienced. Most of those who read my blog know it is the Season of His Return! We know by the witness of the Holy Spirit that we are about to come face-to-face with The Tribulation, Daniel’s 70th Week, and be rescued from its jaws just in the nick of time! Todd of IT IS FINISHED YTC just put out a video that does an excellent job of describing the emotions many of us who are watching are feeling. In it Todd shares his prayers:

“I’ve asked, ‘Are we at the end? What are we facing? Father, in Jesus’ name please tell me. Amen.”

“The other day, I received, ‘Final approach’—two words—upon waking.”




final approach (also called final leg and final approach leg[1]) is the last leg in an aircraft's approach to landing, when the aircraft is lined up with the runway and descending for landing.[2] In aviation radio terminology, it is often shortened to "final". wikipedia.org

Todd admits he doesn’t know just how long this final leg will be. Nor, of course, do I know with certainty. But what if I were to tell you that God has a Plan—a Plan that would wake up our spiritually sleeping loved ones? What if The Plan meant you and I would have to erase the line we have drawn in the sand for a September 2019 Rapture?

There’s always the chance my understanding is not correct, but please hear me out.

Transition Shaking

Slowly but surely I am getting a better picture of what it will be like for the Overcoming Man Child as He traverses the darkness surrounding Him and squeezes through the Narrow Way before being born into Eternal Light. We have seen signs and prophetic events related to the birthing of “twins”—the first birth being that of the Revelation 12 Man Child (also foreshadowed in Isaiah 66:7 and Zephaniah 2:1-3) and the second birth being when those who come to believe on Messiah Jesus will be welcomed into the Millennial Kingdom.

What must it be like for the unborn as his mother trembles with the throes of the birth process?

Those in the medical field generally agree that birth is not painful for the infant, but it is likely he will feel the squeeze as he passes through the birth canal. It will be dark and probably disconcerting for along with the pressure of contractions will be great shaking as his mother succumbs to the stage of transition.

To those who identify themselves with the Overcoming Man 
Child whose birth and subsequent harpazo to the throne of God is described in Revelation 12:1-5, I have written that:

I believe the Lord is showing us we are going to have to experience SHAKING in our birth process. . . When this shaking occurs, there will be a spiritual backlash against the enemy’s efforts and a move of God like we’ve never seen before will occur.

. . . When this time of shaking comes, it is not the Seals of Revelation being opened; it is the spiritual world entering TRANSITION. The dropping of HIS shoe

Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. - Hebrews 12:26-27 KJV

(For more on who is the “man child”, read A Study of the Man Child and Unsealed’s article Major Discovery Concerning Revelation 12.)


GLORY!

But in the midst of this dark tenuous time the Spirit of God will cause us to “Arise and shine!” as the Mighty Glory of YHWH manifests through us! It is the time of Isaiah 60:

Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. - Isaiah 60:1-2 KJV


As Matthew Henry wrote in his commentary: “Darkness shall cover the earth; but, though it be gross darkness, darkness that might be felt, like that of Egypt, that shall overspread the people, yet the church, like Goshen, shall have light at the same time.” blb/Henry Commentary

2012

2012 is probably when I received the first inkling of what God has in store for His Overcoming Church during these last days. This is what He said:

The days of this Earth as you have known it will pass away and a great wave of My glory will wash over the world. Just as in the days of Noah, My wave will engulf the world and there will be those who will enter the ark of Jesus Christ and be saved and those who will choose not to enter and will perish. [From The Coming Wave of Glory]

2013

Then I was led a year later to post a second article titled The Coming Wave of Glory II.

In it I posted a prophetic word by Garris Elkins. Here’s an excerpt:
Recently in worship the Lord revealed an image to me. The image was of a person standing on a beach looking out to sea. There was a sense of longing on his face. The scene changed where I could now look out through his eyes at the developing image.
Before me was the sloping sand of a shoreline that extended down to the ocean's edge. In the distant horizon I saw an approaching series of waves making their way toward the shore. . .

. . . As I looked across the beach toward the shore, I saw lines that had been drawn in the sand. These lines looked like marks made by a stick, something many of us do when we visit a beach. As I pondered the image, I realized the lines were judgments made because of disappointments, assumptions, fear and unbelief. . .

. . . As I looked out onto the ocean I saw the last wave in the set. This wave was huge and I knew immediately it represented a powerful move of God that was approaching our shores.

When I re-read Brother Garris’ account, it struck me when he mentioned “the lines drawn in the sand” for I immediately recalled what I and others had shared regarding the September 2019 "line in the sand" for the Rapture.

In 2014 I received two dreams about tsunamis:



2014

June 20, 2014--Last night I had a second dream of a great wave. In this dream I was at home meeting with a couple of workmen who were hired to paint and prepare the new home (new to us) we had recently purchased. Although I was at home in the dream, the house did not look like the one we currently live in.

As we walked and talked, a huge wave came over us. We were a bit surprised but not panicked and simply held our breath as it passed over us. Another wave, slightly bigger, was right behind it, so I shouted, "Hold your breath! There's another..." and whoosh it came before I could finish what I was saying.

I forgot to record my first 'wave' dream but will record it now. In that dream I was walking to some friends' house along the beach to tell them or warn them about something. As I plunged up the sand dune, from my left I saw a huge wave coming straight for us! I did not make it to the house and ended up being engulfed by the wave but not drowning.  [Above taken from: The Sea Roaring]

2016

In 2016 I blogged this:

Only recently am I putting two and two together and realizing that the Lord could have been showing me physical tsunamis that are to hit America. Of course, this is not the whole world getting hit by a tsunami; but because of America's standing as a world leader, it will affect the entire world when these happen. [Also from The Sea Roaring]

It is not clear to me whether a physical tsunami will take place at the same time as the Wave of Glory washes over God’s people; but it is, of course, possible.

Judgments Before Wrath

It may well be that whenever this Wave of Glory comes from The Most High God it will erase our “September 2019 line in the sand” for the Resurrection/Rapture. It is becoming clearer to me that we will see some catastrophic events due to judgments—decisions God has made to lift His hand of grace—before the coming of His actual WRATH. (For a better understanding of “judgment versus wrath” please read my "New York, Chicago, L.A." article.)

Because of God’s judgments the Dragon, Satan, will be allowed to cause chaos. But before you become dismayed about all this (as I was when I began to put this all together), the Spirit of the Lord has been revealing to His people a magnificent ending!

He has shown that His glory will flow through them like never before! Exactly what this will look like He has not revealed to me. However, folks like Hope at The Call of the Bride Blog refer to this change as a ‘transformation’:

Here are some things I DO believe in - that some of us will be transformed before the Rapture.  There will be three days of total darkness over the entire world and that those transformed, will help reap a Harvest of millions of souls BEFORE the Rapture. I believe another planet/dwarf star will be seen in the sky soon, that is already causing havoc on our planets. I've written about this on other webpages here because I feel this is what God wants us to know.  I created this website because I felt led by God to do so, and use it to "call" in the Bride.  There are people that have dreams and visions and hear God, but know nothing about this soon transformation.  I gently share my thoughts and website with them, and leave it in God's hands.  Some come to believe and understand, some do not.  I do not judge but rather leave it with God. . . thecallofthebride.com/my-beliefs

Those familiar with my blog know I too believe in a planet or dwarf star God will use to allow destruction in the end days. Also, I believe there will be a great manifestation of God’s glory through His Beloved Bride of Christ upon the earth during a Great Shaking that will come before the Resurrection/Rapture. Hope may be accurate in calling it a ‘transformation’; however, I prefer to call the change the Overcomer will experience a move ‘from glory to glory’ before we receive our ultimate transformation at the Resurrection/Rapture:

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord. - 2 Corinthians 3:18 KJV

(Actually, Hope recently shared with me in an email that she prefers using the term ‘from glory to glory’ also 😉) The ESV or English Standard Version, however, does use the word ‘transformed’ instead of ‘changed’:

And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
2 Corinthians 3:18 ESV

The following commentary agrees that the Scripture speaks of moving from one degree of glory to another which is an earnest of the coming bodily change promised in Philippians 3:21, 1 Corinthians 15:52, and other verses:

18. But we all--Christians, as contrasted with the Jews who have a veil on their hearts, answering to Moses' veil on his face. . .
      with open face--Translate, "with unveiled face" (the veil being removed at conversion): contrasted with "hid" ( 2Cr 4:3 ).
      as in a glass--in a mirror, namely, the Gospel which reflects the glory of God and Christ ( 2Cr 4:4 1Cr 13:12 Jam 1:23, 25 ).
      are changed into the same image--namely, the image of Christ's glory, spiritually now ( Rom 8:29 1Jo 3:3 ); an earnest of the bodily change hereafter ( Phl 3:21 ). However many they be, believers all reflect the same image of Christ more or less: a proof of the truth of Christianity.
      from glory to glory--from one degree of glory to another. As Moses' face caught a reflection of God's glory from being in His presence, so believers are changed into His image by beholding Him. blb/Faussett Commentary

A study of the Greek words translated “changed” verifies the difference between the two:

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed [metamorphoō] into the same image from glory to glory, [even] as by the Spirit of the Lord. - 2 Corinthians 3:18 KJV

-versus-

In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed [allassō]. - 1 Corinthians 15:52 KJV

My understanding (as finite as it is) of this coming Wave of Glory, is that it is just that—His people awash in HIS Glory! The best description I have heard of this season was from Rivkah Ministries.

I am not familiar with Rivkah Ministries, but back in August 2018 they posted a video titled Three Days of Darkness - Again. Beginning around the 16-minute mark of that video a Brother in Christ shares a dream that he has had three times. In the dream he experiences a horrible earthquake then has direct eye contact with Jesus. The man thought the Rapture would take place, but it didn’t happen!  Instead darkness was everywhere and it was the middle of the day!

He goes on to say how groups of people began to come to him and he gave them a Bible study. Finally he realized the people kept coming to him from out of the darkness because he was glowing! That’s when he realized, in his words, “I had been changed into a higher glory”.

I found it noteworthy that he mentioned his dreams began in 2012—the year the Holy Spirit began to reveal The Wave of Glory to me.

3 Days of Darkness

On the 'Before Nibiru Comes' page of the Call of the Bride blog, Hope shares how Israel and the time of “Peace and Safety” and the 3 Days of Darkness are keys to the order of events leading to the Rapture. The order, in summary, is that in a time of ‘peace and safety’ there will be huge explosions of bombs either coming from or going into Israel followed by a cosmic event involving Nibiru that triggers an earthquake and three days of darkness. Some have prophesied that the Rapture will then occur 40 days after the three days of darkness.

Both Call of the Bride and Rivkah Ministries were shown a terrible earthquake along with days of darkness.

I have shared what puzzle pieces the Lord has shown me including my dream related to 3 Days of Darkness, so this scenario seems plausible (in my dream I was still on earth when the darkness came).

Peace and Safety

In Hope’s blog there’s that time of ‘peace and safety’ highlighted again. Remember this from my previous article?

I had just sat down to seek His face after singing Him a love song and immediately—and I mean immediately—as soon as I shut my eyes, I saw a great army in full armor on horseback seemingly knit together. Darkness surrounded them but great flames radiated from their heads.

“What am I seeing, Lord?” I asked.

My great end times army is about to be unleashed. It is a force to be reckoned with.

Father God read the question in my mind—“When will this army be released?”

It is the time of peace and safety so-called in which they will be released. Fear not; I am with you, dear daughter. I am with My people. As the Daystar dawns great darkness will be upon the earth. Fear not; I am with you.


Manifesting His Supernatural Glory 

Like many of my brethren, I have experienced the rapturous presence of our Lord, felt the brush of angelic wings (not that all angels have wings), and even had fillings in my teeth changed. However, I have not experienced having His glory emanate visibly from me (or anyone else for that matter) as was seen on Moses (Exodus 34:29, 30, 35).

The judgment events coming to America sound frightening, but instead of being afraid, we should be excited! We should be thrilled to be chosen to glorify the true God in the very last hours. Also, those last hours will go so fast! Remember that in childbirth transition leads to the shortest time in the birth process, the actual birth of the baby:
The GREAT REVIVAL period will be brief and then will come THE RAPTURE! The dropping of HIS shoe

As is foretold in Revelation 12:5, the Man Child/True Church will be birthed just before the Dragon can devour him!

Many others have seen this time of Great Harvest before the Rapture. I present to you here just a sampling of what I have heard and read and encourage you to seek the Lord earnestly about ALL these things! If you are like me, you hoped and believed our beautiful Bridegroom would snatch us away before we saw any greater judgments than we’ve already witnessed.
As I have shared above, it has taken me this long to see that this is not His plan. A part of me hopes I am wrong and that I get to be harpazo-ed into His waiting arms right away! But then our God is much more merciful and patient than I am. If what I've shared is His plan and it saves my unredeemed loved ones and your unredeemed loved ones before The Tribulation, then, “I’M IN!” What about you?


9/21/19--While pondering further on this subject, I remembered this section of Scripture where at Jesus’ resurrection many of the deceased saints came out of the graves and went into Jerusalem and appeared to many!!!

Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. Matthew 27:50-53 KJV

If our Resurrected and Living Lord could do it then, why not now with the dead and/or living in Christ?

"New York, Chicago, L.A."



“Lord, I would very much appreciate confirmation that what I am seeing and hearing is from You only.”

This was my prayer earlier today. I had just sat down to seek His face after singing Him a love song and immediately—and I mean immediately—as soon as I shut my eyes, I saw a great army in full armor on horseback seemingly knit together. Darkness surrounded them but great flames radiated from their heads.

“What am I seeing, Lord?” I asked.

My great end times army is about to be unleashed. It is a force to be reckoned with.

Father God read the question in my mind—“When will this army be released?”

It is the time of peace and safety so-called in which they will be released. Fear not; I am with you, dear daughter. I am with My people. As the Daystar dawns great darkness will be upon the earth. Fear not; I am with you.

Much destruction will occur by the Dragon before My Son comes for his beautiful Bride. Fear not; I am truly with you.

“Must I deliver this message?” I say with tearful eyes. It was Jesus who answered me:

Yes, there will be much confusion in the camp of the churches. But My great army will arise knowing the season—their last hurrah against the enemy before I take them home with Me. Fear not; I am with you.

(This reminded me of a prophetic word He gave me to share almost a year ago. I will re-post an excerpt of it later in this article.) The Lord continued:

It is a time of separation before the bema seat judgment comes. Fear not; I am with you.

I continued to sit before Him quietly while inside I was pleading with Him to give me clarity. There was no way I was going to blog about any of this without knowing it was truly His will.

Another vision came. I saw rioting with a mob carrying lit torches.



The time is short, daughter. This is why these visions are coming so easily now.

“Is it really You showing me these things? I don’t want to be deceived,” I prayed in the name of Jesus Christ. He then assured me it was truly Him and said:

Trouble will come from the cities but with it will come great revival.

This reminded me that Perry Stone has prophesied about a rural revival arising as a result of the trouble coming to cities:


“You’re going to see, as men speak of pockets of selective judgment, so likewise, there is pockets of selective revival. . . in that region, and with those people, the town will know that there is a visitation from Heaven going on, and it will be known as the Rural Revival.”
 
“People will begin to leave large cities says the Spirit of God, not in droves or in masses, but they’re going to begin to pull away, and not know why, and go into mountain areas, and into smaller cities because of the dangers, and the fears, and the mobs, and the robbing, and looting, and stealing, the people will be drawn to where the good people are, where they hear that people love each other and they care about one another.” vfnkb.com

The Lord continued to speak to me:


There will be rioting in the streets of America as well as other cities.

I really didn’t want to hear all this, so I asked Him what I really wanted to know, which was, “How much longer, Lord, before You come?”

Soon and very soon. Fear not; I will be with you through all that is to come.

“Lord, I would very much appreciate confirmation that what I am seeing and hearing is from You only.”

New York will fall first. Then Chicago and L.A.

Confirmations

I waited there before Him to see if He would say anything more. He was silent. I knew what I had to do now. . . look on-line for any prophetic words related to those cities. I had already seen many prophecies of judgment coming to New York City and to California but had never seen anything about Chicago.

So into the search engine I typed "fall of Chicago prophecy".

My jaw dropped when my eyes fell on “Chicago will no longer exist; New York is next and then Los Angeles ”. There were the three cities the Lord gave me all in one caption! Grief and sorrow swept over me as I began to read the article.

It was a prophecy given to Lindy Snow Pierce in 2009. She updates that prophetic word later in the article and explains how the order of the cities falling was changed. Therefore, it is entirely possible that the order the Lord gave me is accurate. She also outlined a great deal more sources of confirmation.

Judgment Does Not Always = Wrath

So, dear Brethren, I submit all this to you to seek the Father in His precious Son’s name for yourself. The Spirit of the Lord has been preparing me to hear this message.

As someone called to be a watchman, I have been listening to others who are watching and have noticed several are calling pre-Rapture catastrophic events “judgments from God”. I have heard “judgment” used this way by several others and have been somewhat confused because to me judgment equals wrath, and the wrath of God has not yet begun in my opinion.

While listening to a certain Brother in Christ as he used the word “judgment” relative to an event coming before the Rapture, I heard in my spirit,

“When God says ‘judgment’ here He is referring to a decision He has made to allow His hand of grace to lift. Therefore, it is not His wrath.”

To be sure I had heard from the Spirit of Truth, I looked up the Biblical usage of the word “judgment”. The Greek word translated the most as “judgment is --krisis.

krisis - Judgment
The Greek noun, κρίσις (krisis), is closely related to the verb, κρίνω (krino), and it is generally translated as judgment. Young's Analytical Concordance offers the brief definition, “the process of judgment”. When used in reference to a judgment pronounced, this word is used most frequently of negative final condemnation from God, which is reserved for the wicked. Notice, in John 5:24 the faithful “shall not come into judgment”, but yet the righteous are certainly judged on that last day (Romans 14:10-12). Again notice John 5:29, in which workers of good arise to the “resurrection of life”, while the workers of evil arise to the “resurrection of condemnation”. The most remarkable exception to this general connotation of divine, negative condemnation is found in John 7:24, where some form of this judgment is committed to saints in this age.

There are five parts to the definition of krisis, but the third one confirms what I heard:

III. judgment
            A. opinion or decision given concerning anything
                        i. esp. concerning justice and injustice, right or wrong

So it would seem that the word “judgment” can be used as decisions that come down from God no matter what dispensation or age.  It can be a decision or judgment that leads to a reward, such as 2 Corinthians 5:10; or it can be a judgment that leads to a negative consequence.

Brethren, these cities will be receiving “negative consequences” for God has made that decision. We who are living in this day and hour are called to be a part of the Great End Times Army! The flames of fire above the heads of the warriors in my vision represents those who have been knit together in His love and who walk in the power of the Holy Spirit!



He had shown this to me last year, as I mentioned above. Here’s the excerpt of that rhema:

October 6, 2018, Word

My dear, dear brothers and sisters in Christ—As I sought Our Lord and King this morning, I asked Him if He would give an encouraging word that I could share with you. This is what I believe He said:

Tell them to wait for me in the same way as Nehemiah and his fellow workers built—one hand working on building the wall while holding a sword in the other. This is the season My people are in. They must stand watch at the wall but be ready to engage the enemy at My command. Fear not, dear ones, for I stand ready with you. The spiritual battle is raging all around you, but I wish for you to rest in Me knowing all is in My hands and it is not My will that any should perish.

Continue to watch, but also be at the ready for even a retreating army does not turn its back on the enemy! The time for My Bride to hear the last trump nears. She is not retreating but is being called home to rest. But til then, Beloved, fight on! I know you feel you have but a little strength but that is when My grace is sufficient and My strength is made greater within you! Shine, My brilliant ones, SHINE! You are the glory of My head and the joy of My heart and I too long for that day when we are together.

. . . It is my belief that we may have one last short period of time to reach the lost. One final great radiant burst before His Light in us vanishes from the earth. This is not what you want to hear--it is not what I want to hear either for we just want to go be with Him! The Last Trump

It is so tempting for me to wait until October to post this, for I thought surely our Bridegroom must be coming for us this month of September when so much is converging. Certainly the September announcement of the Trump Peace Plan which will reportedly break the everlasting land covenant God made with Israel and the September 25 atrocity of an animal sacrifice on the Mount of Olives as 70 nations are invited to renew the covenant made by Noah upon leaving the Ark will bring on the wrath of Almighty God! And since the Overcoming Church is not appointed to wrath, we should be meeting the Lord in the air in September, right?

But I wouldn’t be a very good watchman if I waited until October, for I sense the urgency in the voice of our Lord and King. He is the One I follow. He is the One I love. He is the One I serve with all my heart—
