"I have set the LORD always before me: because He is at my right hand, I shall not be moved." - Psalm 16:8
Those words from the Psalms are comforting. Goodness knows there is plenty happening in the world today to move us and shake us. As I have said before, and so have many others, things are not falling apart but instead are coming together, prophetically speaking. End time signs as recorded for us in the Bible are converging now at an unprecedented fast pace. What an exciting time to be living ! Again, for an in depth listing of the signs of the end times in which we are now living, read Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21.
Pray for the Lord to give you discernment. Ask Him for an extra portion of His Holy Spirit. Just remember, the way prophecy is being fulfilled right now, or on the verge of being fulfilled, should increase your faith tremendously. Read God's holy Word daily, pray often...several times a day. Your love for the good Lord will increase and so will your faith.
Here is an article which touches on issues of our current times, but also informs us about the soon Rapture of the Church and how we should be prepared. The author mentions how the Rapture itself will take place in less than 1/2 a second. He no doubt is basing that belief on 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 which says:
"(51) Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, (52) 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."
Evidently, the twinkling (or blinking) of an eye takes less than half a second. The important thing to consider, however, is to make sure that you are among the true believers taken to heaven in the Rapture. For that to happen, you need to be born again (John 3:3) and that means to surrender to the Lord and to put your faith and belief in Jesus as the Savior. You need to repent and ask for forgiveness for your sins and you need to believe in His resurrection (Romans 10:9, 10, 13).
Following is a must see 12 minute video from prophecywatchers.com with Gary Stearman and his guest Dr. Mark Hitchcock where they discuss the Rapture , Russia rising, and more.
"The Rapture will change the world," says Dr. Hitchcock, and "We are in the season of the Lord's return."
There is also given much information on Russia and how Russia has more nuclear weapons than any other country in the world, including more than America has.
We do live in perilous times (2 Timothy 3:1-5). For believers, it is an exciting time to be alive, because we know our blessed hope of Jesus' return is very near when He will take us to be home with Him in heaven.
"Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;" - Titus 2:13
How loving of God to give us His Love Letter (the Bible) to guide and direct us and to warn us of the devil and how we need the Savior, Jesus. The Bible is therefore also our Instruction Manual.
Read the Holy Word daily. You will draw closer to the good Lord. That is our purpose in life: to love God with all of our heart, mind, strength and soul (Mark 12:30); and to bring glory to Him by living a holy life and by obeying Him.
"Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God." - 1 Corinthians 10:31
For unbelievers, the time is short ! Now is the time to turn to the Lord in repentance; be sorry for your sins and turn from them; pray for forgiveness, and turn to Jesus in belief and faith that He is the Savior of the world, and He can be your Savior as well.
"Seek ye the LORD while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is near:" - Isaiah 55:6
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." - John 14:6
Romans 10:9,10,13 tells us: (9) "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. (10) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (13) For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Jesus loves you and does not wish for you to perish ! He is waiting with arms wide open to embrace you in love and forgiveness if you will repent and turn to Him in faith and believe in Him as your Savior.
Surrender to the Lord before it is too late. He is waiting to receive you.
