Bad News; Good News
Don’t you hate it when someone asks, “So which do you want
first—the good news or the bad news?” Instead of doing that I will tell you in
a nutshell what God in His infinite goodness has revealed to Those Who Have Ears
to Hear and Eyes to See. Our Brother at The Kindling says it best: “We are
gonna see some things before the Rapture. . . We’re going to have a little bit
of a ride! This is NOT The Tribulation, but a SHAKING is coming to get our
unsaved loved ones SAVED!” (See Trouble Before Rapture by The Kindling.)
Ok, that was the “bad news”. In this Brother’s words, here’s
the good news:
“During this coming judgment,
we are going to be SECURE!” He explains that Those in Christ drawing nigh
to Him have nothing to fear, for our Redemption is truly near!
Before delving into the events prophesied to occur prior to
the Rapture, I want to again emphasize the importance of prayerfully taking
these things before the Lord. I wanted to correlate as many of the prophesied
things to happen in one article (though I know it is not a complete list). I wouldn’t
even be writing about the Rapture except that the Holy Spirit spoke clearly to
me in 2015 that the Lord would be coming for us soon. Nor would I be sharing
about possible events to occur before the Rapture except that the Spirit of the
Lord revealed certain things to me and others that have since been confirmed.
Most teach that no particular sign or event must occur
before the Rapture. This is true, yet the Spirit of the Lord has revealed
through the saints certain events that are to transpire prior to or in conjunction with our Catching
Away. One prevalent example is the myriad of believers in Christ who have been
shown by the Spirit that nuclear
ballistic missiles will be coming down at the same time Those in Christ ascend.
The
Scriptures refer to nuclear weaponry but (to my knowledge) not the timing of
its use, yet this prophecy will most likely be proven true.
The cuttingedge.org
explains: “The ultimate end of the Illuminati Plan is to produce Antichrist on the
world scene. However, consistent with Bible prophecy, the "birth" of
Antichrist on the world scene can only occur at the end of a global war, a war
in which entire nations may be annihilated. This is prophecy and this is the
Illuminati plan.” [excerpt from Season
of the Sea Roaring]
The Church’s Exodus
The Elements of the Covenant
If the Exodus from Egypt and entering into the Promised Land by the Israelites
are a type and shadow of the ‘Journey of Faith’ and/or the Church Age, as many
Bible researchers believe then perhaps it would mirror the timing of the
Rapture. . . [Postscripts

Lu Vega in this article brings attention to the fact that
there are many parallels of the original Exodus with the Church Bride’s Exodus.
The Moses Pattern
I recently watched the video Shocking Prophetic Timeline Reveals
What's Next on Sid Roth’s It’s Supernatural Network. In this video
Robin D. Bullock shares that he was shown in 2012 we had entered the “time of
Moses”. The Lord said to Robin, “God’s people will be coming out. Several
things will be happening now in sequence--things in the world and things in the
Church. . .” [Stunning
Heavenly Signs and Patterns for the Rapture excerpt]
If we are indeed following The
Moses Pattern, it is possible God is wanting to deal with Baal-Zephon, the god
of child sacrifice, before we cross over our Red Sea! I am
referring to the possibility that God is working to overturn Roe v. Wade before
the Rapture. [Hope
Holdup excerpt]
“Everybody wants to know the
timeline, but God says it’s not a timeline it’s a SIGN line.”
. . . The most recent event on the Sign Line pertains to
the overturn of Roe v. Wade, proclaimed notably on the same day as the very
rare Grand Planetary Parade heavenly sign!
June 24, 2022, the Supreme
Court overturned Roe v. Wade the landmark ruling that established the
Constitutional right to abortion in the U.S. in 1973.
In December 2021, Myles Kilby, an
accountant in Georgia, prophesied
that Roe v. Wade would be overturned in 2022. . .
"For the past five or six
months, I've been preaching this and prophesying this publicly," Kilby
said on a recent appearance on Sid Roth's show, It's Supernatural!
"This is a divine turnaround year. ... God [is] going to completely overturn Roe v. Wade,
and this would be the main sign that God would give that revival has arrived
for the United States of America. [From charismanews.com.

[Sign
Line Ends in 2022 excerpt]
Tsunamis
Perry Stone recently shared that God told him once Roe v.
Wade was overturned there would be certain states making laws against it. This
was when the tsunamis that God had shown Perry would begin. (It is my
belief that a tsunami will be part of the converging events on the Day of the
Rapture.) If accurate, then we are so very close to being Caught Up for the States
of New York and California and others are taking a strong stance against this
landmark decision.
Event or Sign Line
There are, of course, festivals or feasts of the Lord referred
to during the Exodus which I and others have looked at as possibly pointing to
the timing of the Rapture; however, the purpose of this article is to look at what EVENTS might occur prior
to the Catching Away.
In the Old Testament account there were 10 plagues listed
that occurred prior to the children of Israel being led out of Egypt. Nothing
in the Scriptures tells us that God would repeat these plagues, yet in recent
years we have seen 8 of those 10 plagues manifest once again. It is interesting
that israel365news.com
in its article Incredible
Evidence Proves Ten Plagues Happening Today mentions the darkness to
be caused by the incoming Nibiru, a planet or dwarf star with an accompaniment
of moons of which I have written about previously.
Will we see the last 2 plagues—the plague of darkness and
the plague of the death of the firstborn? If God is choosing to follow the
pattern of the original Exodus, it is possible we will.
#9 Plague of Darkness
And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand
toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness
[which] may be felt. And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and
there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place
for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.
- Exodus 10:21-23 KJV
#10 Plague of the Death of the Firstborn
And Moses said, Thus saith the LORD, About midnight will
I go out into the midst of Egypt: And all the firstborn in the land of Egypt
shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sitteth upon his throne, even
unto the firstborn of the maidservant that [is] behind the mill; and all the
firstborn of beasts. And there shall be a great cry throughout all the land of
Egypt, such as there was none like it, nor shall be like it any more. - Exodus
11:4-6 KJV
3 Days of Darkness?
There are many prophecies indicating that a Plague of
Darkness is coming. I too was shown this as I shared in 3 Days of
Darkness? Notice that in the Exodus account the darkness was so thick it
could be felt—" They saw not one another, neither rose any from his
place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their
dwellings”—BUT God’s people had LIGHT!
The Plague of the Death of the Firstborn was what broke and
humbled the Egyptian Pharoah. Could it be that the Rapture of Those in Christ
would parallel that plague in that the innocent children of unbelievers will
also be caught away to Heaven on that day leaving their parents bewildered and
distraught?
Notice also the last plague is the 10th one.
Could it be that the 10th plague marks the conclusion of the Dispensation
of Grace (10
signifies “completeness of order” and “the whole cycle is complete”) as the
11th Shemitah since the re-establishment of Israel (11
is symbolic for “disorder, disorganization, imperfection, and
disintegration”) gives birth to the chaotic time of Jacob’s Trouble? If we do witness
the Plague of Darkness, Brethren, it will be the Lord of Heaven letting the
world know that very soon He will be catching away His Elect Church!
Earthquake Before Darkness?
It has also been prophesied that a large earthquake will
occur prior to this darkness coming.
There is no doubt in my mind that a
major earthquake will occur in the United States. The big question is—will it
be associated with the Resurrection and Rapture of Those in Christ? Historical
records indicate there have been massive earthquakes before–the most recent
being the powerful 9.0 Japan
earthquake and tsunami of 2011 which sent tsunami waves across the Pacific
basin causing widespread damage. [Facing
the Dragon in June? Then We Fly! excerpt]
Signs and Wonders
It has been foretold that adjacent to this time Those in
Christ will walk in great power and glory.
In this Moses Pattern God showed great signs and wonders. If
the New Testament is the Old Testament in reverse, then God will show great
signs and wonders before the Church exits. As I shared earlier in this article, REVIVAL of some
type is to follow the overturn of Roe v. Wade. It is possible the
Lord Jesus Christ plans on working through His true Church to accomplish this
and bring in the last Great Harvest before the Rapture.
In "New
York, Chicago, L.A." I share a vision I was given of a glorious end
time army and how I was made to understand it would go forth during a so-called
time of peace and safety. Perhaps the Lord was showing me the short period when
the Body of Christ will minister after the great earthquake. I am uncertain as to how all this will look but have written about
the possibility that Rivkah Ministries’ insight may be the most accurate as I
shared in Is
There Really a Rapture?
The ancient apocalyptic text of 1 Enoch may or may
not be referring to this strange season:
1 Enoch 49:1-3
In those days the saints and the chosen shall undergo
a change. The light of day shall rest upon them; and the splendor and glory of the
saints shall be changed. In the day of trouble evil shall be heaped
up upon sinners; but the righteous shall triumph in the name of the Lord of
spirits. Others shall be made to see, that they must repent, and
forsake the works of their hands; and that glory awaits them in the presence of
the Lord of spirits; yet that by His name they may be saved. The Lord will have
compassion on them; for great is His mercy; and righteousness is in His
judgment, and in the presence of His glory; nor in His judgment shall iniquity
stand. He who repents not before Him shall perish.
Not having the text in the original language, I do not know
which type of “change” the chosen undergo as referred to in the first verses:
“In those days the saints and the chosen shall undergo
a change. The light of day shall rest upon
them. . .”
The Book of Corinthians refers to two types of changes:
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
[excerpt from Erasing
the Line in the Sand...]
The Book of 1 Enoch tells us that this change will manifest
as “The light of day shall rest upon them”. When something rests upon
you, it infers a tentative placing such as how the Spirit of God rested upon
Old Testament saints provisionally. If this change is a tentative “glory to
glory” transformation, that means they have NOT received their new bodies as
yet but will at the time of the Rapture.
This is the type of change I believe the Lord showed me in
the vision he gave me as explained in “New
York, Chicago, L.A.” However, my understanding could be incorrect. My Brother
in Christ and fellow blogger at End Times: Darkness Descending posited compelling
points and shared his Biblical research into the possibility of Those in Christ
receiving their new bodies and ministering for a time prior to The Tribulation
in his article Something
Exciting is Coming. He refers to 1 Corinthians 15:50-54 and points out that
it is our glorious transformation that will occur in the “twinkling of an eye”
but not specifically our exit:
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. - 1 Corinthians 15:52 KJV
One of the several templates that
we can buttress Paul’s clear statement of a warning before Rapture on is the
story of Elijah’s catching away. Elijah’s cohort Elisha knew that he was going
to be “caught away” on the very day that it occurred. He actually witnessed it
happen. They had advanced notice.
Another sterling example that we
can use is the resurrection of Jesus. When He arose from the dead, the dead
also arose and were seen walking the streets of Jerusalem for 40 days. When
ascension day came after the 40 days of walking the streets of Jerusalem had
expired and Jesus ascended back to Heaven, those who resurrected with Jesus
also ascended to Heaven with Him as the “first fruits.”
As I've stated before, I too believe that Those in Christ will be walking in a
glorified state for a period of time before the Rapture. Whether we have gone
from “glory to glory” as it says in 2 Corinthians 3:18 or whether we have
received our ultimate transformation, our new bodies, I do not know. The
purpose of this transformation, of course, being to expedite the salvation of as
many as possible before the Rapture.
The Appointed Time
I believe the Rapture will then occur at a time appointed by
our Heavenly Father, but will it necessarily be on a feast day? In his video The Rapture Timing Secret Lee Brainard
at Soothkeep YTC contends that Jesus’ ascension was not on a Jewish feast day,
therefore, the Body of Christ's ascension will not be on a festival day. (The day Jesus ascended
to Heaven was not a feast day even though the Catholic
Church has turned it into one.)
This got me to thinking about the phrase “appointed time” or
moed in
Hebrew. Does moed ALWAYS mean a Feast Day? In studying H4150 moed
I learned that it does not always refer to a Feast Day. To my knowledge,
no verse specifies a definite festival on which the Rapture will occur although each feast of the Lord has elements foreshadowing the Rapture.
I have shared in Rapture
Cut-Off Time how the Scriptures seem to tell us that Jacob’s Trouble, the
Tribulation, will begin on a moed BUT we are not appointed to stick
around for that day.
If the Rapture were to occur on a festival, The Feast of
Trumpets has always seemed the most likely to me as I shared In the
Twinkling of an Eye, but Scripturally it is not certain whether the Rapture
will occur on one of the Feasts of the Lord or not.
Two Moons Rapture
The sense I have regarding the timing of all these
Pre-Rapture events is that they will be in close progression with some of them
occurring simultaneously in a Great Convergence. We will be safely in our Lord’s
hands as we trust in Him alone and, it is my understanding, we will walk in
great glory for this brief period before our Heavenly Bridegroom sweeps us up
to our Heavenly Home.
Part of that Great Convergence includes celestial signs. The
recent Two Moon Rapture Dream Tyler
at Generation 2434 YTC shares gives the sense of a convergence of things
happening. (He shares related links also.)
Many believe and have reported that a looming planetary
system will be the cause of the prophesied great earthquake and darkness. The
Planet X or Nibiru system is likely related to the many dreams of moons or
planets and a large
comet appearing on the Day of the Rapture.
So when will this Great Convergence of Events happen so we
can get outta here? It must be very soon now, Beloved in the Lord, as witnessed
by all that is happening in the spiritual and geopolitical realms. For example,
there is an upcoming Interfaith
Climate Justice and Ceremony of Repentance being held in conjunction with the
COP 27 meeting in Sinai, Egypt! How is THAT for a prophetic parallel to
The Moses Pattern?!!!
Additionally, on October 25 Pope Francis will be leading
world religious leaders in an interfaith Prayer Service for Peace during the
three day event “The
Cry for Peace” calling to mind 1 Thessalonians 5:3. (For more information on these events, Bob Barber in Tribulation Warning! One World
Religion Ignites this Nov! RAPTURE WARNING! gives important insight and additional
links.)
Closer to home, recently Biden
secretly signed an executive order unleashing the U.S. surveillance state on
Americans. In Rapture Dream! Tipping
Point and the Great Shaking…. Tim Henderson shares his prophetic dream where he is shown
that Biden and leaders of other nations have signed into place an agreement to
allow bio-implants that will go in the forehead or the right hand. They are
setting everything in place in preparation for when the world will come under the rule of the son of perdition.
“There is a shaking that
is about to happen.
God is about to show
out!
And then, Brothers and Sisters,
we know that our
Bridegroom comes!” Tim Henderson
Returning to the Exodus analogy, let me conclude with this, dear Brethren. Know this and be encouraged--that just as Israel left Egypt not as fear-filled slaves
but as richly victorious children of God, the Overcoming Church will not be
exiting this world as a defeated, panic-stricken retreating army, but will be
caught up by her Kinsmen Redeemer and Holy Bridegroom as a glorious Warrior
Bride in shining victory!
