Summary of Bible references on the Rapture

Wrestling with the rulers of the darkness of this age

For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6:12)

Pray that you are not kept in darkness but would be a light shining in this dark age.

Natural disasters

Acts 4:24 So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: “Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them,

There are many accounts of people praying during a disaster that then spared their home, of their family. Pray over this verse that your faith would be strengthened that God is the one who made heaven and earth and the sea and so they are all subject to Him.

All things work together for Good

Romans 11:33–36 Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out! “For who has known the mind of the LORD? Or who has become His counselor?” “Or who has first given to Him And it shall be repaid to him?” For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen.

Very often it seems like we are about to be destroyed, the world is against us, etc. But that is OK if God is for us. Pray over this verse that you would have the faith that all things are for Jesus, they are all through Jesus and they are all to Him. We need eyes to see that all the glory is to the Lord forever. If you see this, then you will not be fearful of anything that the enemy can throw your way.

Establishing the saints and the church

Romans 16:25–27 Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith—to God, alone wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.

We do not want our work and ministry to go up in flames like wood, hay and stubble. So pray that you get the faith in this verse, that you would be established according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now made manifest. Pray for obedience to the faith in God.

Delivered from this evil age

Galatians 1:4–5 who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

Don't complain about the present evil age, rather pray that you would be delivered from the present evil age according to the will of God and Father.

Every spiritual blessing

Ephesians 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,

Pray for a revelation of every spiritual blessing that you have been blessed with.

God would be glorified

Ephesians 3:20–21 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

God is glorified through the work that He does within you. So pray that His power would work in us and that He would be glorified in the church.

I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. – 1 Cor. 1:4-8

Do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power Ephesians 1:16-19

Now, Lord, … grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus. – Acts 4:29-31

Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. – Romans 15:5-7

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13

There is a great deception in Christianity.

Whenever they talk about judgment they talk about sin. Then they argue that there is nothing you can do to wash away your sins (true), that your forgiveness is 100% due to the blood of Jesus (true) and that thinking you can do something to save yourself is works salvation and is heresy (true). That is all true. But look at the following verses

Matthew 24:45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

Jesus did not say who is the sinless servant, or who is the forgiven servant, or who is the servant who has washed away their sins in the blood of Jesus. You cannot be a servant of Jesus until you have washed away your sins. That is a prerequisite. It is not a sin to not be wise. When it comes to the rapture the Lord is not asking "who is washed in the blood?" He is asking "who is the faithful and wise servant".

Luke 21:34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

Being caught up in the cares of this life is not a sin. Surfeiting means to drink wine until you are giddy, the modern terminology would be "until you have a buzz". The world is filled with wine. Their TV shows, movies and music. You can go to Disney world, or skiing in the alps or go to Spring break in Miami. These things are not necessarily sinful. Drinking wine was not sinful. But they are befuddling.

35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

It is as though we are walking through the woods and there are snares laid by the enemy to catch us.

36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

So what does this have to do with being accounted worthy? They always tell us that if our sins are washed away then that is everything, ok, but were our sins washed away because we were accounted worthy or because it was a free gift of God and nothing to do with us? It had nothing to do with us, you don't need to be accounted worthy to be forgiven of sins. So then this is not talking about having your sins forgiven.

Acts 5:41 And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy G2661 to suffer shame for his name.

Luke used this same term in both the gospel and in Acts. Have you been counted worthy to suffer shame for the Lord's name? That is what this word means. It doesn't have anything to do with being forgiven of sins, that was a free gift given to all. This has everything to do with your testimony as a Christian.

2 Thessalonians 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:

Paul also used this term, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God. It is easy to misunderstand and think that you need to work for your salvation to be counted worthy. But that is not the case. The point is you must have a testimony of the Lord, we are His witnesses, and if you do have a testimony of the Lord then you will also suffer. The fact that the world wants to make you suffer is evidence that you have a testimony of the Lord and that you have been counted worthy based on that testimony to suffer.

Let me share an example I have shared several times. If you preach the gospel you will be rejected, you will be insulted, you will be mocked and ridiculed. The world will try every angle to get you to stop. They will pretend to care for you, they will question your sanity, they will ostracize you, etc. I have shared this story before, I was baptized in my freshman year at college and became an active member of the church in evangelizing the campus for my next three years at college. In my senior year in the springtime I was eating at one of the college cafeterias on campus (depending on the day there were five different cafeterias that I ate at). This day the cafeteria was completely packed out. Each table had ten seats, at the table next to me I saw two people sharing one seat. At the wall by the widows I saw people using the window sill as a place to hold their plate as there were no other seats available. I saw people going to the elevator with plates of food to go to their rooms to eat. Meanwhile at my table which was in the center of the cafeteria the other nine seats were empty. It felt like one of those western movies where the gunslinger comes into the saloon and everyone clears out.

If you're not looking for a RAPTURE possibility August 2025, you're fired! New Wine is Pentecost!

Biblical evidence that the feast of new wine is in the month of Av.

Babylon (the USA) the land of two rivers

Psalm 137:1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

Babylon is known as the land of two rivers. We use terms like Shinar and Mesopotamia to reference this. The two rivers were the Tigris and Euphrates. Interestingly, the US is also a land of two rivers: the Mississippi and the Missouri. These two rivers are two of the longest rivers in the world traversing the continent from one border to another. Yes, the Nile, the Amazon and the Yangtze are all longer rivers. However, Brazil, Egypt and China are not a land of two rivers, but the US is.

2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof. 3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.

Also, just like Babylon the US is the home for both Jews and Christians. The UK used to be considered a Christian nation, today 6% of the population identifies as evangelical Christians. That is probably the highest of any country outside of the US. In the US 23% of people identify as evangelical Christians. Likewise with Jews. 49% of the world's Jews live in Israel and 49% live in the US. This term "wasted us" is unique and only used once in the Bible in this Psalm. The meaning is doubtful but probably indicates that you have been plundered. Think about Hollywood, all the themes of their movies come from the Bible. Their comedy mocks the Bible. The US plundered the Jewish scientists during WW2 to build their bombs and missiles and other devices. 100 years ago approximately 70% of the US attended church regularly, every week. Today it has declined to 21%. People come to the US as a place purpotedly where you can worship God freely, but then they get plundered of their faith, wasted.

4 How shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?

The word strange means foreign, foreign gods (idols) and foreign vanities. The USA specializes in being strange. Every single foreign god is welcome in the US, any kind of vanity is promoted.

5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.

There is no word for cunning. The word for forget indicates to wither, to cease to care and to be forgotten. Think about how we treat our elders in the US. They are put away into a corner somewhere and forgotten. In the rest of the world, especially in the Middle East the elders are in the center of the family and have a huge influence on the raising of the grand children and advising the young parents. The word for right hand here is the same as when Jacob knowingly guided his right hand onto Ephraim. It means the right side, the strong side.

6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.

What happens to those who forget the Lord and worship dumb idols? Their tongue cleaves to the roof of their mouth, they become dumb. What happens if you prefer Disney world, or the NFL or golf to the church? You become dumb.

7 Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.

Edom was Israel's twin brother. Christians have a twin, we are both story tellers, people of the book. Hollywood, the Music Industry and the Main Stream Media are also story tellers, people of the book. Open your eyes and remember, they are the ones who are saying "Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof". Why do they make fun of Jesus but not of Mohammed? It seems to me that it would be much easier to make fun of Mohammed. There is a green envy of the Bible, no one is jealous of the Koran.

8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.

There are daughters of the US. We have multinational corporations that were all born here. MTV, Hollywood and the Main Stream Media were all born here. The Social Gospel movement started here, something where a Satanist like Elon Musk can refer to himself as a "cultural Christian". The prosperity gospel also started in the US.

9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

The word "dasheth" means to shatter and to break in pieces. This would seem to be an extremely dark way to end this Psalm. We get a picture of someone smashing babies against stones. But instead think of Hollywood. Their babies are their movies. The music industry, their babies are their records. There are a lot of very evil and poisonous fruit that comes from the USA. All these food companies with all their additives and GMOs, all the perverseness. This stuff will be smashed, destroyed, broken into pieces, and those that do that job will be happy.

to be spiritually minded is life and peace

Romans 8:5 For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

If you have intrusional thoughts I would ask you to examine when you left the door open for those thoughts? If you open the door, perhaps by watching a movie, you have invited the enemy to come into your mind.

We are told very clearly that the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace. You can set your mind on the spirit by singing hymns and songs of praise. However, the amount of benefit you get is proportional to the amount of effort. Simply turning on the radio to a Christian station is almost 0 effort. Playing a playlist of songs that you have purchased is greater effort than that, at least you won't be hearing commercials. However, taking a song book or hymnal and singing the songs is much better effort. To do this with others in a small group meeting is even more effort.

The same goes with the word of God. You can listen to a sermon on the radio, but to go to a meeting where the word is preached is significantly more effort, and to read the word yourself is also setting the mind on the spirit, and then using tools like Blue Letter Bible and Bible commentaries to assist you as you study is even more effort.

Either you are actively pursuing the Lord to set your mind on the Spirit or else you mind will automatically be set on the flesh.

When I was a new Christian I would often get depressed and what I would do is to begin reading the Bible at Galatians. I did this all the time and every time, regardless of how bad the depression was it had passed before I got to the end of Colossians. Sometimes Galatians or Galatians and Ephesians were enough. Only in the most extreme cases did I arrive at Colossians. So somewhere between 10-20 chapters would always cure my depression.

Father’s day testimony

I would like to share some of the lessons I learned from my Father. I realize a lot of people have had negative experiences with their father and when I hear them I always think that my experiences would be very helpful to them.

This testimony is 10 pages long so be warned.

As I read through many of the Posting Here, I see many which are, in my opinion, lacking in understanding of The Subject which is being mentioned. That, however, is people's opinions which They have a right to make.

I have been STUDING Bible Scriptures for nearly 75 years. I did say, studying. Some of that time was spent on learning correctly. Thanks be to The Spirit of The Elohim, I dd learn!
I was also blessed; but did not realize it at The Time, to have been sent to Asmaria Eritrea while I was in The Army. I spent 18 mths. There. That was now I realize, A VERY BIG BLESSING! I also was in a Locus plague while I was There.

My point is This. I had been given a great gift which I did not realize at the time. How many great gifts have true Believers been given without realizing It?

I suppose that This writing is sort of out of place to some degree: However, perhaps It will also cause some to stop, and THINK.

Read Your writing. Yes indeed, to be spiritually minded can bring peace and spiritual comfort. However, This evil world is still ONE to be dealt with for a Time.

According to some writings I have read (not here), It should be gone by now! So much for knowing!

However, I look closely at the present Middle East situation and pounder It in relation to Biblical data. I will not however, pull It out of context.
What think Ye ?

DeepSeeker

I think dealing with this evil world is on the Lord's to do list.

Acts 23:1 And Paul, earnestly beholding the council, said, Men and brethren, I have lived in all good conscience before God until this day.

This should be our testimony. It doesn't mean that Paul is sinless, nor does it mean that he does not need to confess his sins and take the Lord's blood. Paul said that he had served God in a pure conscience (2 Timothy 1:3). Remember he had also said that he was less than the least of all the apostles and in Romans 7 said that he was a wretched man because of the flesh. The way to understand this is not that he does not have the wretched body of the flesh, rather imagine his service to God as being like a policeman. He is saying every day when he had come to work he served after having taken a shower and while wearing a clean and pressed uniform. Yes, he needed a shower regularly and yes, his uniform needed to be cleaned and pressed regularly. Paul told us that a good conscience is the end of the commandments (1 Timothy 1:5). Think of your conscience as an instrument you have that detects sin. If you are living in sin it can be damaged, it can even become callous. But once you are saved and washed by the blood of Jesus your conscience will become renewed and on a daily basis will become more and more sensitive to sin. Perhaps you can see that murdering someone is sin, but simply slapping someone does not strike you as sin. Soon you see how that is sin, but then you still don't have an issue with coarse jesting. Little by little as we repent of sins and grow in grace our conscience will become more and more sensitive. Now before you can serve the Lord you must deal with that sin that your conscience is aware of. This is like the Lord's word that if you come before the altar with your offering and there remember that you have offended your brother, first go and be reconciled. Before you can serve the Lord as a priest you must take care of any offenses that you may have committed. Paul is not saying that he has never committed offenses because in other places he has told us that he has. What he is saying is that he took care of those before serving the Lord as a priest each day.

2 And the high priest Ananias commanded them that stood by him to smite him on the mouth.

This is why I felt we needed to see this now. On Social Media this happens frequently, not from unbelievers, but from people claiming to be believers. If someone shared a testimony today that they have lived in all good conscience until this day they would get smitten by many people proclaiming to be Christians. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. All have sinned, true. All have fallen short of the glory of God, true. But that does not mean we can't serve God in a good conscience. Jesus blood washes us from all sins. We have to deal with sins, but once we do deal with sins our conscience can be "good".

3 Then said Paul unto him, God shall smite thee, thou whited wall: for sittest thou to judge me after the law, and commandest me to be smitten contrary to the law?

This is a strong word, but a very important principle. Know the law. The law is not grace, it is a school master to lead you to Jesus. But, it is like a tutor that can train your hands to fight. Satan is the accuser of the brethren, that is a legal term, like you are on trial and Satan is the prosecutor. The Holy Spirit is our paraclete, our advocate. That is also a legal term indicating that we have been given the best legal representation. We are on trial continuously as a Christian. If you are actively involved in spiritual warfare you are on trial every day. But, the law doesn't just condemn you it also justifies you.

4 And they that stood by said, Revilest thou God's high priest?

This also happens on social media. One person makes a judgmental post, condemning another Christian saying their testimony is not according to the truth. Then they respond to that post telling them "with what judgment you judge you shall be judged". Then those who "stood by", other people reading this exchange will then chime in.

5 Then said Paul, I wist not, brethren, that he was the high priest: for it is written, Thou shalt not speak evil of the ruler of thy people.

Here is an example of Paul serving in all good conscience. He does not justify what he said, rather he admits that according to the word of God he should not have reviled him. Do you see, his comment went beyond simply saying that he had been smitten contrary to the law, he called the High Priest "a whited wall". He should not have done that and he immediately confessed that he should not have done that. However, notice that they did not identify him as the High Priest until after he called him a whited wall and Paul also mentions that. There are different kinds of sin, some are done in ignorance. He was confessing that he was wrong but was also saying it was done in ignorance.

Acts 23:6 But when Paul perceived that the one part were Sadducees, and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee: of the hope and resurrection of the dead I am called in question.

Today Christians are divided over the rapture. There are those that teach this while there are others who teach that the prophecies have already been fulfilled, hence no rapture. So let me state this clearly, the rapture is Biblical. The word in Greek is Harpazo, and the latin translation is "Rapturo". Hence the doctrine of the rapture dates back to Bible expositors reading latin.

7 And when he had so said, there arose a dissension between the Pharisees and the Sadducees: and the multitude was divided.

Divide and conquer. This is Satan's strategy against the church and it is also a weakness of Satan's strategy against the church. There is a reason why the Lord Jesus allows this divide in the church, it is so that those who are approved may become manifest. In order to teach the truth you must be guided by the Holy Spirit. If you are not guided by the Holy Spirit you can come up with a thousand different doctrines, but none of them will align with every Bible verse. Every false doctrine can be debunked. Being forced to debunk false doctrines helps us to know the truth.

8 For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both.

No resurrection, no angel, and no Spirit? And they still claim to be men of God teaching the truth? The other good thing about this division is that you can learn what are the essential doctrines by what Satan has the most trouble with. When you are under the heaviest attack over some doctrine know that you are "over the target".

9 And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees' part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God.

Acts 24:5 For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes:

Notice the language of the Jews: Ringleader, sedition, and pestilent fellow. These words are designed to provoke a response. So you need to pray before responding or else your response may confirm that you are a "pestilent fellow". Be careful that you don't make it sound like you want to cause a sedition among the Jews or that you are pushing some sect.

6 Who also hath gone about to profane the temple: whom we took, and would have judged according to our law.

Now this is the most serious accusation because this is the one thing that seems to have been confirmed independently by the Roman army.

7 But the chief captain Lysias came upon us, and with great violence took him away out of our hands, 8 Commanding his accusers to come unto thee: by examining of whom thyself mayest take knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him. 9 And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so.

Again, this is the most important accusation because it is the reason Paul is there and they have multiple witnesses in agreement.

10 Then Paul, after that the governor had beckoned unto him to speak, answered, Forasmuch as I know that thou hast been of many years a judge unto this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself: 11 Because that thou mayest understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship. 12 And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city: 13 Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.

This destroys the first accusations. If he was a pestilent fellow he would have been found disputing, if he was a ringleader of a sect trying to cause sedition they would have found him raising up the people. He also points out they have no proof of those accusations. Language is critical, he didn't call them lies or false, rather he said they were baseless. In a court of law the burden of proof is on the prosecution. Don't try to prove you are not something, rather point out they have no proof that you are.

14 But this I confess unto thee, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets: 15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.

Does this sound like someone trying to profane the temple? He is testifying that his faith is in the law and the prophets. He agrees that they call his faith heresy, but this moves the entire trial from a Roman law court to a theological debate.

16 And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void to offence toward God, and toward men. 17 Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings. 18 Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.

He admits to being in the temple, but he is a Jew, he was bringing alms to his nation (that is financial support). His defense was that he was there alone, no multitude with him, no tumult with him.

19 Who ought to have been here before thee, and object, if they had ought against me. 20 Or else let these same here say, if they have found any evil doing in me, while I stood before the council, 21 Except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them, Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.

Ultimately he turns the trial to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

THE SILENT ONES

THE SILENT PEOPLE

Jeremiah 6:10-19 10 To whom shall I speak, and give warning, that they may hear? behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot hearken: behold, the word of the LORD is unto them a reproach; they have no delight in it. 11 Therefore I am full of the fury of the LORD; I am weary with holding in: I will pour it out upon the children abroad, and upon the assembly of young men together: for even the husband with the wife shall be taken, the aged with him that is full of days. 12 And their houses shall be turned unto others, with their fields and wives together: for I will stretch out my hand upon the inhabitants of the land, saith the LORD. 13 For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. 14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace. 15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore they shall fall among them that fall: at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down, saith the LORD. 16 Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein. 17 Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken. 18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them. 19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.

My son, WHY ARE MY PEOPLE SILENT? WHY HAVE THEY NOT RAISED THEIR VOICES IN ONE ACCORD TO REPENT FOR THEIR SINS? DO THEY NOT KNOW THAT I SEE EVERYTHING? My words are a reproach to them, and My warnings have fallen on deaf ears. The day is now at hand that the judgments prophesied over this nation and people will come to pass. The Times of Mercy Extended have expired, and the Times of Troubles have arrived. I have used My watchmen and prophets to SOUND THE ALARM to prepare My children, but because of laziness, they have stopped their ears. My son, the day has arrived when My children MUST WALK BY GREAT FAITH. Many, many will fall because they have not believed and set their eyes on Me. Many are so deceived that they cannot see the truth before them. Did I not say that the last days will be filled with deception? Even in My house, the deception is great, and the false shepherds leading the blind sheep will fall with GREAT DESTRUCTION commensurate (in proportion) with the deception they have taught. I say, Get out now and seek Me in My Word. I will open your eyes and set you free.

My son, the SILENT PEOPLE are hoping that all the chaos and war they are seeing will pass. They have been taught a lie of escaping before anything bad happens. I tell you now - because you have believed and trusted in a lie, you will not see peace. You will not see happy times or good tidings. You will see famine, darkness, chaos, and death. Because you are SILENT and have NOT REPENTED and TURNED from your wicked ways, I AM bringing upon you My fury. You have turned from Me and follow strange gods and worship them - the gods of FLESH and MONEY - giving your time to them, instead of Me. My son, the TIME OF GREAT EVIL has now come upon this world. WOE! to those who are not in Me, for I AM the ONLY shelter and strong tower that will stand. I SAY TO THE SILENT ONES - REPENT NOW! TURN TO ME AND MY WORD! FIND SHELTER IN ME - NOT IN THIS WORLD! GREAT TIMES OF DISTRESS ARE NOW HERE - WARS UPON WARS - DEATH UPON DEATH. PREPARE - FOR THE DARKNESS COMES.

I love you, My children.

I come quickly! Amen. The Lord Jesus Christ

2 Kings 19:17 Of a truth, Lord, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands,

Lord Jesus we pray for all those people who have suffered under these tyrants that have destroyed the nations and their land. We lift up those in Iran, what a shame that such a great land would be in such poverty because of these tyrants. They rob the people so they can build weapons of mass destruction. You are Lord, are they submissive to You? Is this according to Your will? They have built with wood, hay and stubble so we pray that their work would be exposed by fire for what it is and turned to ash. We pray that the Lion of the Tribe of Judah would arise and scatter His enemies.

18 And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.

Lord we pray burn up their idols, expose the fact that they are no gods and that You alone reign from on high. Lord we pray that the idols of the nations would be destroyed.

19 Now therefore, O Lord our God, I beseech thee, save thou us out of his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the Lord God, even thou only.

And Lord we pray you would save us. Deliver all your people out of the hands of these evil ones. We pray that all the kingdoms of earth would see your salvation and know that thou alone art God.

20 Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent to Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, That which thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria I have heard. 21 This is the word that the Lord hath spoken concerning him; The virgin the daughter of Zion hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee.

Amen Lord! May all the scorn and reproach they have heaped up on the heads of your people return to them and may the entire world, all the saints, laugh them to scorn. Expose their corruption, expose their ineptness, expose their arrogance and pride. Show them to be liars and hypocrites. Fill the believers in Iran with joy and rejoicing and laughter. Amen.

22 Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel.

Amen Lord, they have mocked your people, Lord they have mocked You. They have exalted themselves against You. Against the Holy one of Israel. So Lord I pray that as they have done it would be done unto them. They think they can go against the Holy one of Israel, let them see exactly how mighty You are. As much as they have exalted themselves let that be how much you bring them low and humble them under the mighty hand of God.

23 By thy messengers thou hast reproached the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots I am come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon, and will cut down the tall cedar trees thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the lodgings of his borders, and into the forest of his Carmel. 24 I have digged and drunk strange waters, and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of besieged places. 25 Hast thou not heard long ago how I have done it, and of ancient times that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste fenced cities into ruinous heaps.

Lord Jesus, they are pawns accomplishing your will. So Lord we pray according to Your will that the Father would be hallowed on this earth. That His name would be lifted up and that the whole earth would see there is salvation in Your name.

26 Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded; they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the house tops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up.

Lord Jesus we pray drain their power. May their hands be weak, may their knees be feeble, may they be dismayed at every turn. May they see as their leaders die and defect. May they be confounded in all they hope to do. May you hit the enemy with the intensity of the burning sun and may you hit them early before they have a chance to rise up. May they wilt under the intensity of Your gaze, under the heat of Your attack.

27 But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me.

Lord Jesus you are omniscient. May they be stunned by your omniscience. You know where they live, hit them at home. You know their going out, hit them as they come out of their holes. You know their coming in, hit them so that the holes collapse upon them. You know their rage against You, the Holy One of heaven so as they have measured to others may it be measured to them. They dig pits and lay snares for others, may they themselves fall into the pits and get snared themselves.

28 Because thy rage against me and thy tumult is come up into mine ears, therefore I will put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest.

Amen Lord, may all this work out to cause them to repent and to return. To be humbled and to see that You alone are God. Amen.

Psalm 35:4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.

40:14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.

70:2 Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt.

129:5 Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion.

Today is the 23rd of Sivan on the Hebrew Calendar

Esther 8:9 Then were the king's scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

There is a strange story that we can understand if we compare this to the US. The King signs a law that sets the stage to kill all the Jews and then Esther comes in and gets the King to sign a different law that the Jews are to fight for their survival and the King will be with them. Think about during Biden's four years and Obama's 8. Who knows what plans were made to kill Christians. However, now, during Trump's administration we can believe that a new decree will be made to stand your ground.

Who is THE THEM ? When was This applied to Whom ? Was That for The Kingdom of Heaven, or The Kingdom Of God ?
AND, Which of These Two Kingdoms are for Whom ?
