HOLD FAST! As the House Comes Down, We Rapture Up!


While listening to a video wherein a Brother in Christ was sharing Revelation 3:10, I felt a confirming exhortation come to me by the Holy Spirit--that the Lord was indeed coming soon and that the things of this world will become more and more chaotic but I was to have no fear. I heard “Hold fast!” three times.

 

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. - Revelation 3:7-8 KJV

 

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

 

Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast(krateō) which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. - Revelation 3:11 KJV

 

Krateō means “to use strength, i.e. seize or retain (literally or figuratively):—hold, retain”.

 

In Verse 8 of Revelation 3 the Lord speaks of the church of Philadelphia having little strength[TM1] . How are we to hold fast if we have little strength? We hold fast by depending on the Lord Jesus Christ who strengthens us (I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. - Philippians 4:13 KJV)!

 

d. For you have a little strength: The term a little strength does not imply weakness, but real strength. They were weak enough to be strong in the Lord. We can be “too strong” or “too big” or too sure of ourselves for God to really use us. The church in Philadelphia had the poverty of spirit to know they really needed God’s strength. . . The Apostle Paul was a great example of this dynamic of weakness and strength. God’s strength was made evident in his weaknesses (2 Corinthians 12:7-10). David Guzik Commentary


 

The crown Jesus is referring to is most likely the CROWN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS:

 

I have fought a good fight, I have finished [my] course, I have kept the faith:

Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. - 2 Timothy 4:7-8 KJV

 

The content of Revelation Chapters 2 and 3 reveals seven different types of individuals/churches throughout history and Jesus telling what their reward or lack thereof will be at the end of the Race. I believe bibleref.com explains it well:

 

In this verse [referring to Revelation 3:11] Jesus promises to "come soon," which in this Greek context means something that will happen "quickly or suddenly," not necessarily "a short time from now." In the meantime, He urges the believers at Philadelphia to keep a firm grip on the truth and on their loyalty to Him. . . [David Guzik writes--" If they failed to hold fast, their crown might be given to another. The idea is not that it might be stolen by another, but given.”]


The Philadelphian believers would have been familiar with marathon races. To complete a marathon successfully, a runner had to adhere to strict discipline and abide by the rules governing the race. If he won the race, he would receive a crown as his reward. The apostle Paul understood that the Christian life is not a 100-yard dash but a marathon. . .


At the end of His life, Paul testified that he had finished the race and anticipated the crown of righteousness as a reward from the Lord, the righteous judge (2 Timothy 4:7–8). We, too, are running a marathon that requires discipline, diligence, and patient endurance. We must keep our eyes on Jesus and not be distracted. Upon completing the race successfully, we will receive the crown of righteousness.


 

Collapsing House Rapture

 

In my article 2020 Dark Winter and the “Once-in-a-Generation" Great Conjunction I wrote about how we were anticipating a global financial collapse last Passover:

 

z3newspodcast titled Prophetic warning of a possible global financial collapse by Passover 2021 caught my eye:

 

This 40-minute message warns of the possibility of a collapse in global financial markets over the next five months that finally reaches the bottom by Passover 2021. This warning is based on prophetic insights received by myself and others, including a dream received on August 10, 2020, by Pastor Dana Coverstone in which he saw a big billboard that stated, 'Passover 2021, Big Things Are Coming for the World.' . . . As is often the case with prophetic dreams, we only see part of the picture, so pulling the pieces together requires making some assumptions that might be wrong.

 

. . . Maurice Sklar . . . shares several visions he was given concerning the Church Rapture (he believes in a Pre-Tribulation Rapture), the close of the Age of Grace and more.  Maurice had a vision of America as a beautiful mansion on the outside with demonic termites devouring it from within causing it to crack and break into pieces.

 

Greg Lauer of alittlestrength.com shared a dream related to the Rapture occurring as the house was collapsing around him (see Before and After). In his dream, Greg sees the house falling around him but does not fall with it:

 

. . . Suddenly I felt nothing—no more movement, no more falling, nothing. Astonished and confused as to why I hadn't felt the crash that I knew for a fact was about to occur, I woke up. . .

 

The Lord very clearly explained the dream to him:

 

The Rapture will remove us from the "falling house"
of a world that we can see is coming crashing down,
but we won't be here to feel the impact of that crash.

In my article The Revelation 12 Galactic Federation, The Great Re:Set, and The Rapture I share prophecies related to America’s demise first by an economic collapse followed by nuclear fire. In 1992 David Wilkerson prophesied: "...If America rejects God’s call to turn back to Him, we’ll face the same judgments Israel faced.  And they will hit not only New York but also every region in the country.  Even the heartland won’t be spared.  The nation’s economy will collapse, and violence will erupt."

 

In 1985 he prophesied: "Sudden destruction is coming and few will escape. Unexpectedly, and in one hour, a hydrogen holocaust will engulf America and this nation will be no more. . . An attack from Russia, and the great holocaust follows an economic collapse in America."

 

Great Convergence with The Great Exchange

 

If what Dumitru Duduman was shown is the same thing as what David Wilkerson was shown, this attack on America’s nuclear stockpile could be the timing of SUDDEN DESTRUCTION of 1 Thessalonians that they shall not escape, but WE WILL! (See also Saved From Wrath.) As was shared above by Steven Ben Nun, at the same time these expected asteroids are coming down, our enemies will be using tactical nukes on our nation while these asteroids are hitting! 

 

For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 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. But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. - 1 Thessalonians 5:2-4 KJV

 

For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, - 1 Thessalonians 5:9 KJV

 

As I have said before, America must fall for the New World Order to rise. Israel is our end times clock, but America’s destiny is to fall so that Israel has no one to turn to but God during Jacob’s Trouble.

 

Putting all this together chronologically, it would seem the waiting Church Bride would see internal chaos within the not-anymore-United States then a domino effect perhaps of events including the collapse of the American economy just before or simultaneously with an attack on America’s nuclear stockpile followed by the appearance of UFOs and an incoming comet! As this sudden destruction comes down--those who are in Christ will be whisked up out of harm’s way and into the waiting arms of our much beloved Lord Jesus Christ!

[From The Revelation 12 Galactic Federation, The Great Re:Set, and The Rapture]


Passover 5782

 

I believe something significant will happen this year around Passover. Around this time of year two years ago I wrote:

 

The Harp

 

On March 14 I woke from a dream wherein I was holding an ancient lyre and thought I heard, “Keep the harp close.” As I thought on it, I recalled Paul Dawson’s report on the Sea of Galilee or The Kinneret which means The Harp. The people of Israel, especially the religious leaders, are joyously watching as the water level rises in the sea. . . [From The Crowning of the Man Child]

 

More recently Paul Dawson of the REVELATIONCHAPTER12dotCOM Youtube Channel reminded us of the sign of The Kinneret in his March 16 video Trim Your Wicks. The Bridegroom is Coming! Will the unprecedented snowfall on Purim in Israel lead to the flooding of The Harp around Passover thereby signaling the prophetic sac of waters breaking and the Revelation 12 Man Child subsequently being born?

Our Brother Paul also posted an important update on March 25 including news from the Temple Institute that it appears they have a red heifer that will be ready this year (six months from now). They are being cautious, however, in making any definite announcement--yet. In this video Iran & Russia. Red Heifer & 3rd Temple Construction Calculations Paul shares his calculations as to the timing of the building of the Third Temple and why he believes the Rapture will precipitate its building! 


April 17?

Also what came to mind was my Dance Card Dream where I knew an important event would occur on April 17 (see April 17--An Important Date with Jesus?). April 17th falls within the Passover season this year:

 

Passover, the Feast of Unleavened Bread ️ Pesach for Hebrew Year 5782 begins in the Diaspora at sundown on Friday, 15 April 2022 and ends at nightfall on Saturday, 23 April 2022. Passover (Hebrew: פֶּסַח Pesach) commemorates the story of the Exodus, in which the ancient Israelites were freed from slavery in Egypt. hebcal.com


Only recently I’ve noticed that Jeffrey McGaha has been pointing to that same date for a significant event related to the Revelation 12 Dragon. This is what he wrote:

 

All I can do to sound the alarm is keep showing you over and over in EVERY SINGLE MOVIE how they encode the celestial dragon events, and especially the BIG ONE on 4/17/22 at 5:55am... If you're saved by the blood of Jesus Christ, REJOICE! Your redemption draws near in the Rapture! [From the Description Box under Watchman of the Dragon 3/11/22 video.]

 

As I shared above, I believe there will be a Great Convergence of events on the Day of the Rapture including a great meteor/asteroid shower when the earth passes through the tail of the Revelation 12 Dragon. To understand more about the celestial Revelation 12 Dragon check out my article Our Last Day--Behold the Great Red Dragon:

 

Just as Revelation 12:1-2 foretold the heavenly configuration that would form the Great Sign of the Woman, so too, in my opinion, does Revelation 12:3 describe a definite astronomical event involving the forthcoming Second Wonder or Great Red Dragon Sign:

 

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. - Revelation 12:3 KJV

[Excerpt from Our Last Day--Behold the Great Red Dragon]

 

It is, of course, possible that the catching away of the Overcoming Church could occur on April 17. If it does not, however, it is my hope that April 17 marks something significant happening so those of us watching for our Lord’s appearing will know without a doubt that the Rapture is the next event!

So HOLD FAST, dear Brethren!

 

And do not fear this Wild Ride as the world heads for the cliff! The thumbnail used for a video by our Brother at Generation2434 titled WEF Theater? depicts what I believe the Spirit of the Lord is showing His people--that the road to the Great Reset (or 7-year Tribulation) will include the Plandemic, War, and Economic Collapse before going off the cliff!

 

Prices may skyrocket and the worldly “House” may crack and begin to collapse, but as this happens it is the confirmation that THEY go off a cliff into The Tribulation while we take the HARPAZO EXIT RAMP!

The Damascus Domino and the Rapture


Whether you believe we have entered a third world war or not, it is evident that the dominoes are set and in motion towards the fulfillment of the Ezekiel 38 prophecy of the attack on Israel and events that will lead to the snatching away of the Overcoming Church Bride. As our Brother at End Times Darkness Descending blogsite noted--

 

. . . Damascus is missing from the hoard of Israel’s invaders.  This is persuasive evidence that the ancient city is destroyed prior to the coming of the Russian attack and invasion of Israel described in the great prophecy of the Gog/Magog war in Ezekiel 38 & 39.  Perhaps the invasion is even a response to a sort of Israeli nuclear self defense against Syria.  In any event, Isaiah 17 also pictures a coming invasion that greatly resembles the invasion by Gog in Ezekiel 38.  It’s concluding verses suggest the horror of modern warfare … PROPHECY ALERT: COUNTDOWN TO WORLD WAR 3 – THE SOON DESTRUCTION OF DAMASCUS

 

On March 1, 2022, The Watchman with Erick Stakelbeck reported that despite their current understanding that Israel can strike in Syria to protect herself, Russia announced that it did not recognize Israel’s control over the Golan Heights. I believe this has emboldened Iran (who has a stronghold in Damascus, Syria) and may force Israel’s hand to be the agent to fulfill Isaiah 17:1--

 

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


 

The Exodus of the Overcoming Church

 

This led me to look again at a study I did of Isaiah 17, which I shared in a September 2, 2020, article--Events Before the Rapture.

 

In that little study of Isaiah, I saw prophetic foreshadowing linking JACOB’S TROUBLE and the END OF THE SUMMER HARVEST with the demise of DAMASCUS and perhaps a link between the fall of DAMASCUS and BABYLON. It would have behooved me to first read End Times Darkness Descending’s article posted two years prior. He wrote:

 

. . . the sequence of events begins in Isaiah 26 verse 17 alluding to Israel’s rebirth as a nation in 1948.  It has generally been a matter of debate within prophetic circles on whether or not the church will still be on Earth to see the destruction of Damascus. . . When examining Isaiah’s sequence of events, it would seem to strongly indicate that the sequence puts its destruction immediately after the rapture in close proximity. Isaiah Chronicles the End Times Timing of Damascus Destruction Solved

 

So our Brother at ETDD makes the conjecture that the Rapture will likely occur before Damascus is destroyed. In Events Before the Rapture:

 

. . . I propose that there may be a link between the fall of DAMASCUS and BABYLON.

 

Revelation Chapter 18 contains the prophecy related to the destruction of Babylon. I agree with James Smith and others who believe that America is part of the Babylon system and it must fall for the New World Order to rise: 

 

James Smith’s wonderful video in which he harmonizes the Scriptures related to "The Sea and the Waves Roaring" shows there is a great convergence of destruction that includes America on the Day the Lord comes for us! [Excerpt from Prepare to Meet Your Maker!]

 

The point being that the Rapture of the Overcoming Church Bride will occur at the same time as the destruction comes. . .

 

If all this is a prophetic insight into our very last days, we will soon see converging events leading to the fall of America and Damascus with the glorious Rapture event before God intervenes in the coming Ezekiel 38 war.

 

The current United States administration has been the perfect wrecking crew to begin the destruction of America. It will most likely be nuclear weapons that will finish it up, HOWEVER, those who are in Christ have nothing to fear.


Dreams and Visions

 

I have written many times before of dreams, words, and visions Brethren have shared where the Lord has shown nuclear warfare occurring simultaneously with the Rapture. (See Endtime Dream & Vision YTC video Dreams & Visions of Nuclear War Rapture Resurrection Event! Evacuation of NY Has Begun! for a compilation of some of these dreams.) Scripture promises an escape before the sudden destruction of the Day of the Lord (1 Thessalonians 5:1-11).

 

The Scriptures indicate a GREAT HEAVENLY EXCHANGE occurs for in Verse 5 of Revelation 12 the Man Child is caught up--harpazō-ed or RAPTURED--BEFORE the Dragon devours him but SIMULTANEOUSLY with the Dragon casting the stars/fallen angels down to earth! (Job 38:7 alludes to angels as stars.)

 

So, Brethren, “when they come down, we go up”! Many brethren have been shown this by the Spirit of the Lord. What is coming down has been revealed as: missiles, asteroids/meteorites, and fallen angels. This leads me to believe there will be a Great Convergence on the Day of The Rapture of fiery meteorites falling along with earthly and heavenly war. [Excerpts from The Revelation 12 Dragon and The Rapture]

 

Stephen Dexter shared a dream he believes is from the Lord Jesus Christ in his 20-minute video posted March 6, 2022--Prophetic Dream (Israel/Iran) and WW3 (Russia/Ukraine). At about the 10-minute mark in his video Stephen tells his dream given to him a few years ago before the plandemic. It was Wintertime in the dream and thousands of people (who were not wearing masks) came running by and told him volcanoes were erupting somewhere. His Dad shows up in the dream and says there was a 9/11-type attack on Israel adding, “So much for the peace deal happening”. Stephen replied, “That’s going to be the thing that forces them to have to sign a peace deal.”

Our Brother in Christ believes there is a high possibility that we have entered the time of his dream coming to pass! As I write this article, there is less than two weeks left of Winter (Spring begins March 21). Stephen was also shown that when there is a full moon over Israel something significant will occur. The last full moon over Israel within this Hebrew (religious) year will appear on March 18.

 

Stephen concluded that if something significant does happen around this time, it would be great confirmation that we are going to go Home this year--he projects by June 2022!
