INDEED, SOMETHING IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN

 


DO YOU BELIEVE IN THE RAPTURE OF THE BRIDE OF CHRIST?

Are you humble enough to take a listen and really consider what is being said in this video teaching? God has not left anyone in the dark. By searching and studying and listening and moving by the Spirit of God you can know what time it is. It’s almost time!! Wake up Oh Sleeper!!




WHAT A MORE EXCELLENT FOCUS!

In all the intense evil drive to divide and separate from goodness there is also a passionate separation we hunger for from sin and evil both within us and outside of us. And Jesus already took care of it. What a more excellent focus!

WE KNOW WE ARE AT THE END OF TIME

 


Get the Oil = Get The Holy Spirit

  The paradigm shift of “falling asleep“ and “being prepared” as in Gethsemane and the parable of 10 virgins and their oil is here.  It applies to us all. Everyone (Prepared  Believers and unprepared “believers”) will fall asleep or be very sleepy, but who will have enough of the Holy Spirit to be ready when the Groom comes or persecution? Do you have the Oil of the Lord’s Spirit in you? It’s sleepy time until Jesus comes to get us. Will you deny your Savior? Will you betray him with a kiss? What will you do when it gets more real then ever before?  Everyone has broken areas in their lives and  the sleepiness is coming on. The  Holy Spirit is who will hold you together if you have Him! Jesus has already won this fight for us we just need to stay real. Do you trust in Jesus and His blood? His blood is the most powerful forgiving evidence that God loves you with a passion. The Holy Spirit oil says to live in repentance, love and to be watchful. Lord have mercy on us all! Jesus in great concern said, “ Can you not stay awake and watch and pray with me for this one hour?” Temptations are everywhere, love is growing cold, repentance is a foreign concept, and  where is faith in Jesus, his death and resurrection for the forgiveness of sin? Do you love yourself and your interests more than Jesus during this hour?


““But watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.””

‭‭Luke‬ ‭21:34-36‬ ‭ESV‬‬


‭ “And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him. And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.”

‭‭Luke‬ ‭22:39-46‬


“Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.”

‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25:1-13‬ ‭

JESUS IS THE ARK OF SALVATION

 


Jesus is the Ark of Salvation. He is the only one who can get you through what is about to happen on this earth.  Do not be a mocker or an unbeliever before the wrath to come.  Put your complete trust in Jesus now and you will escape the wrath to come and have eternal life. That means you must heed the warnings and get inside Jesus before the door closes by 1. admitting you are spiritually and eternally dead in your sins without him 2. confessing your sins to him and by stopping your sinful behavior (repent), and 3. Believing in him by putting your complete trust in Him as the only one who can save you because of his perfect life, his shed blood for you on the cross, and his resurrection from the dead. Jesus did all the work for you to be saved and become Spiritually and eternally alive. That’s what it means to get into the Ark of Salvation before the flood of judgement comes. 

“And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it. I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭17:26-27, 30, 33-36‬ ‭

Slow to Anger
By Michael Youssef, Ph.D.
Through thousands of years of human history, human sin, and human rebellion, God has been patient. He has withheld His judgment and wrath, in spite of being blasphemed and rejected by the wicked human race. For now, God patiently entreats people to repent and to receive His Son, Jesus.
When I consider God’s patience toward the human race, I think of the people I am witnessing to now who are not responding. I think of the people I have pleaded with over the years. Many of them have locked the doors of their hearts. They always have their reasons. “Someday, maybe, I’ll surrender to Christ -- but I’m not ready now.” “I live a good life. I don’t need a Savior.” “If I become a Christian, my friends will reject me.” “I want to control my own life. I don’t want God to tell me what to do.” So many excuses -- but when these people pass into eternity, what good will their excuses do for them?
When the day of wrath comes, there will be no escape, no second chances. Today, the window of salvation is still open -- but for how long? The apostle Peter wrote, “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). It is not God’s will that you perish for all eternity, but God’s will is not the only factor in this equation. Your will is also a factor. It is God’s loving and gracious will that you receive the gift of eternal life -- that’s why He sent His Son to die for you. But God will not overrule your free will.
God Himself does not gloat over the fate of the wicked (Ezekiel 33:11). He is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). Yet He will not overrule our free will. If we choose judgment, then judgment it shall be. No one has to suffer eternal separation from God. The victory over sin and death has already been won. Jesus has paid the price of our redemption -- and He will triumph over Satan.
Prayer: Lord, thank You for Your precious gift of grace. Thank You for Your long-suffering compassion. Help me to daily submit my will to Yours. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
“And [the Lord] passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, ‘The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished’” (Exodus 34:6-7).

“So the angel swung his sickle across the earth and gathered the grape harvest of the earth and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭14:19‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.””
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭16:1‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“From his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭19:15‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die— but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:6-11‬ ‭ESV‬‬

BELIEVE THE PURE GOSPEL

 




WHO APPRECIATES JESUS ANYMORE?

 “Who has believed our message? To whom has the Lord revealed his powerful arm? My servant (Jesus) grew up in the Lord’s presence like a tender green shoot, like a root in dry ground. There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him. He (Jesus) was despised and rejected— a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief. We turned our backs on him and looked the other way. He was despised, and we did not care. Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his ( Jesus’) troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him (Jesus) the sins of us all. He was oppressed and treated harshly, yet he never said a word. He was led like a lamb to the slaughter. And as a sheep is silent before the shearers, he did not open his mouth. Unjustly condemned, he (Jesus) was led away. No one cared that he died without descendants, that his life was cut short in midstream. But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people. He (Jesus) had done no wrong and had never deceived anyone. But he was buried like a criminal; he was put in a rich man’s grave. But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He (Jesus) will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he ( Jesus) will bear all their sins. I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier, because he exposed himself to death. He was counted among the rebels. He ( Jesus) bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.”

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭53:1-12‬
