A QUICK REVIEW OF THE SIGNS
A QUICK REVIEW OF THE SIGNS
In
2014, 15 we had a tetrad of blood moons all falling on Passover and Sukkot
In 2016
we had the return of the Bethlehem Star for the first time in 2000 years.
IN 2017
on Sept 23, we had the sign of Revelation 12 for the first and only time ever and
that sign was marked by a blood moon
In 2018
we had a total solar Eclipse that blazed a trail of darkness across America
IN 2018
coming on July 27 we will witness the longest blood moon of the century and the
second longest blood moon in
60,000 years. It will be centered over Jerusalem.
Now we
could fill pages and pages of information concerning numbers, and signs and speculations
that accompanied these events and we have to ask ourselves… Do these signs mean
anything?
I
maintain that they do for a couple of reasons: first of all God warned us
through Joel that there would be signs in the sun, moon and stars before the coming
of the Lord. Jesus said that there would be signs in the sun, moon and stars in
connection with last day events. John told us that there would be signs in the sun,
moon and stars connected with end time events.
Now for
this upcoming blood moon on the 27th of July, there is, of course
much speculation and many diverse ideas of what it portends. Will something happen
on that day? Or is it a wake- up call for something that will happen in the near
future. Some say that it will signal a covenant with the many prophesied in
Daniel 9:27. It will bring great celebration in Jerusalem and around the world,
but it will represent the coming of the anti-Messiah and not the true Messiah
Yeshua.
This
group believes that the coming blood moon will signal or warn of the rapture and
the beginning of the tribulation via the arrival of the antichrist. But now
there is a second group that prophesies that President Trump is going to serve
two terms in the Whitehouse, that he has been placed there by God… that he came
into office as a weak or non-Christian but that the Spirit of God will come
upon Him and he will become a full-blown Christian who will shout God’s name to
the world, He will turn the tides and bring freedom and safety to America… He
will bring unprecedented prosperity and that the funding for the final harvest
will come through unexpected sources such as Bill Gates.
This,
of course, flies in the fact of what I have believed and yet it has come true
with amazing accuracy so far. I have posted his prophecy below so that you can
judge it for yourselves. Remember this was given in I think April or May of
2007
Honestly,
I have given up trying to speculate about such things and while I truly believe
that we are living in the most significant time in earth’s history and while I
truly believe that these signs are pregnant with meaning, I also believe that
if anything, we must sanctify ourselves. We must come out of the world. We must
purify our souls in the blood of Jesus and in the Word of God. We must make
sure that we are filled with the Holy Spirit and baptized in the Holy Spirit,
for John baptized with water, but Jesus baptizes with the Holy Spirit and with
fire. WE NEED OUR FIRE BACK! WE NEED TO RETURN TO OUR FIRST LOVE!
There
is really only one kind of fear that must control our lives at this time and
that is the fear of the Lord. And of course the fear of the Lord carries with
it the respect of obedience. One does not honor the King and then go out and
ignore His commands. Such honor is hypocrisy. Therefore we must come into
alignment with God and His Word and His Spirit and we must put away everything
that is not born of God, for any way we look at it, there is a great shaking
coming so that everything that is not of God will be shaken out. There is more
than one swamp that will be drained and it will begin with the house of the Lord.
This
shaking will happen on every level, of government, of church and of us as
individuals. In government it could include exposure of the Satanic Cabal that
has taken over our government and the “draining of the swamp.” It could involve
replacing Globalist Luciferian leaders with righteous leaders who will overturn
abortion and gay marriage laws and the huge drug trade that is carried on by the
CIA and others. It could clean up the covert corruption that has plagued this
land as well as the overt corruption of the Media and the entertainment
industries that are largely Luciferian. God could sovereignly act to bring
revival and a major cleanup of this nation, which in turn will result in the cleanup
of many other nations, (namely the sheep nations.)
This view
would tie in with the idea that God is going to win this war between Christ and
Satan in a major way and that it will leave Satan’s kingdom gutted and broken as
millions turn to the Lord. I like that because I believe that Jesus paid the
price to save the whole world and not just a handful of zealots.
On the other
hand, Bible prophecy speaks of a time when for a short while the Beast will
rule the world and even overcome the saints. (See Rev. 13) But I can’t help but
feel that somehow, both of these scenarios will play out simultaneously in some
way.
The more
I know about Bible prophecy, the more I know how little I know. Indeed the
issues of these last days boil down to issues of the heart more than of the intellect.
We are a Bride that is preparing for our beloved Bridegroom to return and He is
looking for a Bride that only has eyes for Him.
It does
seem consistent with scripture that there will be both a Bride and also guests
of the Bride. In other words, many will be saved by grace that we would call “Outer
Court Christians” They never entered within the veil. They never consummated the
marriage, nor were they given birth from the womb of the Most Holy Place as the
sons of God mentioned in Romans 8: 19-22, but they will be friends of the Bride
who will be in heaven by grace, but not as a co-reigning entity with Christ. (Think
of the thief on the cross.)
So no
matter how these next few months and years play out, we must make it our aim to
be a part of the Bride of Christ and that means we need to stop dating other
gods and serving other kingdoms and we need to come into a pure and devoted
walk with the Lord… and this is consistent with all of Scripture from Genesis
to Revelation.
