Hello everyone! Isn’t it great to get together with other believers like this and fellowship and share the Word together? That’s what I like to think I’m doing as I write these posts every week. Part of the dialogue we share together is comparing notes with what we’ve learned since the last time we were together. That’s especially true of those who have a great passion for Bible prophecy -the study of what is happening in the world and how it lines up with world events. We compare notes and see what each other thinks. You agree up to now, correct? 🙂
I just say that to encourage you NOT TO SCOFF at those who are watching and share that they suspect that a certain time period is a high-watch time. None of the Bible prophecy teachers I follow dogmatically say that a certain day is definitely the day of the Rapture. They’ve said that it’s strongly a high-watch period based on Biblical statements compared with things in the world. That should tell us that they are serious watchers. Are you watching as closely as they’ve been? I doubt if any of us are.
Now, of course if someone DOES say that Jesus absolutely IS coming back for His church on a certain date, do not listen to them. PRAY FOR THEM. Listen carefully to what they say. If they seem puffed up and arrogant about it, I don’t listen to them nor will I share their messages here on my blog. If they seem to be humble and seriously seeking and not dogmatically insisting on an exact date (not just a high -watch time), I respect them for the effort they’re putting in to watch and keep us informed. They should be prayed for especially because the world and many many Christians are scoffing at them and slandering them with others.
DON’T YOU BE ONE OF THEM! Pray for them! Love them, love ON them. Show them the love of Jesus. They truly need it. Be wise and not arrogant. Don’t be all puffed up yourself! I’ve had a handful of Facebook friends laughing and taunting these teachers and sharing memes full of images and words that make fun. When I see that I think of the pharisees. Don’t be one! If you have been, please reconsider your actions and repent and be loving from now onward.
Be an ambassador for Jesus. Represent Him well because the world is watching! The Bible tells us that they will know we are Christians by their love for one another. Are they seeing love from you towards these watchers? Think about it!
Please listen to the first part of Pastor J.D. about the September 23rd rapture watching. Thank you for your kindness, pastor J.D. So many believers are being so cruel to those who honestly thought it would happen. Be kind to each other, everyone!
Nobody but the Father knows exactly when this will happen, but the Bible assures us that it WILL happen.
Did perhaps millions of people vanish from the earth and you are left wondering what has happened?
If you are reading this after this has happened, this post is for you, my friend! I’m sharing some videos and information with you in this post to help you understand what has befallen our world. Please pay close attention!
This week’s Mindful Monday devotional is very near and dear to my heart. The devotional is given by Anne Graham Lotz. You may know her best as the daughter of Billy Graham. As many of my readers and those who know me are aware, the Rapture and Bible prophecy as a whole is a calling of mine, and has been since a few years before I gave my heart to Christ when I was a senior in high school. Both of my grandfathers were pastors so I grew up in my mom’s dad’s church in my early years. The closest I became aware of what the end times were back then was from singing the song, “I’ll Fly Away.” As a child, I just thought the song was about the time of our deaths.
Through a whole series of events I now realize were orchestrated by my Father, God, I was educated about the Rapture and subsequent tribulation period to be endured by those who would be Left Behind. I definitely did not want to be left behind to
Hi everyone! I pray you all are well and blessed this week.
There is so much happening in our world! Just when one disaster winds down, it seems like another has been following close behind it. I really feel called to continue doing these weekly updates to inform you and I both as we watch for the Lord’s return. Also, in hopes of reaching those fence-sitters who need to fall over to the side of Christ in time! There are many of you out there possibly reading this who do not know if you are ready to meet the Lord should today be the day. I encourage you, if you do not know, visit this web site.
So I’m sitting here working on this week’s prophecy update and this tab opens in my browser that I didn’t open. I have no idea how it came to be open in front of me, but in case this is from the Lord, I’m sharing it here before our usual updates. It’s interesting so far:
Hello everyone! I hope you are all well, especially all of you in Texas and those of whom like me, have family and/or friends in the areas affected by Hurricane Harvey. What a traumatic week we in the US have had this week! That’s not to say that those outside the US haven’t been through a great deal as well, as our prophecy updates for this week will show.
In light of Hurricane Harvey (and Hurricane Irma brewing in the Atlantic), I encourage you to take a look at Bill Koenig’s book, “Eye to Eye: Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel”. Also, if you are in a position to help those who were badly affected by Hurricane Harvey, I encourage you to visit the SAMARITAN’S PURSE website and make a donation to help. That’s run by Franklin Graham. Please be cautious of scams online and elsewhere and protect your gift by those taking advantage of this catastrophe and give to a source that is trusted and respected such as Samaritan’s Purse.
With that said, let’s get on with this week’s End of the Age Prophecy Updates! —>
(no new videos that I could find this week, but I really encourage you to follow his blog posts HERE and HERE).
Joel is very intelligent and up to date on current events involving Israel (where he and his family now live), the Middle East, Russia, and others. I own every book he’s written and have learned a great deal from him. You can find his books HERE, which I highly recommend!
Joel has a new book coming out in March called The Kremlin Conspiracy I’ve already pre-ordered on Amazon ? Check it out! –>
It’s the day after the Great American Eclipse and we are all still here 🙂 Life has gone on as it has and we are still awaiting the return of the King of kings! See my post about the eclipse here. So what do we prophecy watchers do now? Continue to watch! It hasn’t happened yet, but we are assured by the Bible that it WILL happen!
The Rapture MIGHT happen Monday during the eclipse! Don’t sneer –it just MIGHT 🙂
It might happen in my next breath. It might happen Tuesday or in September or two Septembers from now. The point is, it could happen ANY time. BE and STAY ready!
Just my two cents for those concerned that the Rapture will occur on Monday, during the eclipse:
We need to live every day as if Christ is returning that very day. No day should be less important to us than the one we are in right now. We are to watch, It could happen today or any day, but we cannot know the very day and hour. God gave us all the prophecy we need in the Bible. Any extra-Biblical prophecy isn’t necessary. He gave us enough. The point is: BE Ready!! STAY Ready!!
We can’t know WHEN EXACTLY it will happen, but it will happen! Be ready each and every day as if it will happen this very day because it just might!
It’s awesome to watch (Jesus told us to!!) BUT don’t pronounce that any given day will be THE day it will happen. Why? If the day you expect it to occur doesn’t happen, you will become discouraged (exactly what the enemy wants) and you will give the world a very bad testimony of Christians (again -the goal of the enemy). It’s enough that some unbelievers joke that those of us who believe in Bible prophecy are “tin-hat wearing” paranoid people (and worse). Don’t give them the ammunition!
Make sure you are ready to meet the Lord every day.
Make sure those around know have heard the gospel (good news)
Be loving and wise to have a good testimony to all.
We can’t know the DAY and the HOUR:
“But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.” –Mark 13:32-33
Still we will know the SEASON, otherwise Jesus would not have told us to WATCH:
“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.” –Matt. 24:42
We will not be in darkness referring to the Day of the Lord:
“Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and safety,”destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.”
Hello everyone 🙂 Is everyone else getting ready for back to school or are your kiddos already back in school? This coming week is the last week of summer break for my son. It’s a financially tight summer for us or we’d go and do something special. My son is looking forward to school though. He can’t speak words (till the Lord’s timing…) but when I mention school he lights up. When I ask him if he likes school he does his cute nodding he’s developed these past few years 🙂 He may have autism, but he is smart and bright and very present. I couldn’t ask for a better-behaved and sweeter child if I wanted to. He is so good and sweet and loving.
In light of all the world news and the scare we all feel (and fight to not feel), I’m trying to cling to my faith and the blessings the Lord has given me like the gift of my son.
