END OF TIMES [1 Peter 1:20] – ALREADY but NOT YET - 21 June 2022
1 Peter 1:14-16 “LIVE as CHILDREN OF OBEDIENCE to YAHWEH God; DO NOT CONFORM YOURSELVES to the EVIL DESIRES that GOVERNED you in your FORMER IGNORANCE when you DID NOT KNOW the REQUIREMENTS of the GOSPEL. But as the One Who called you is HOLY, you yourselves also be HOLY in ALL YOUR CONDUCT and MANNER OF LIVING. For it is WRITTEN, ‘You shall be HOLY, for I AM HOLY’.”
1 Peter 1:20 “It is TRUE that He was CHOSEN and FOREORDAINED, DESTINED AND FOREKNOWN for it, BEFORE the FOUNDATION of the WORLD, but He was BROUGHT OUT to PUBLIC VIEW IN THESE LAST DAYS (at the END of the TIMES) for the SAKE of YOU.”
We are all LIVING in the OLD and the NEW … the END TIMES are ALREADY but is also … NOT YET. Like the ancient believers … we find ourselves living in that TENSION of “REALIZATION” that we are indeed in the END TIMES but also living in “EXPECTATION” of the heavenly Bridegroom coming to FETCH His BRIDE. LIVING in EXPECTATION in the END TIMES … is not EASY … for it involves “WAITING” and waiting is not something we do best. It is believing something we cannot see … it is what FAITH is … it is also FAITHFUL LIVING … involving REPENTANCE should we FAIL … PRESSING ON to FULFIL our DESTINY on EARTH and WALK the WALK of FAITH TILL the VERY END.
Heb. 11:1 “Now FAITH is the ASSURANCE, the CONFIRMATION, the TITLE DEED of the THINGS we HOPE for, being the PROOF OF THIS we DO NOT SEE …”
FAITH is also to believe in the MERCY of YAHWEH God … the TAKEN OUT OF THE WAY of the ELECT … to where MESSIAH is, after which, the JUDGMENT would come.
THE RAPTURE:
There are many false teachers and their teaching out there, claiming that the RAPTURE is not Biblical. Besides those opinions, the majority of the Christian church denominations disagree on the rapture majorly. Some claim no rapture, some claim pre-rapture … others mid-rapture. Most claim that the word rapture is not found in the Bible and that it was invented by some early church fathers.
It is true that the word rapture is not mentioned in the Bible but it is the same word as “GATHER” [Original Koine Greek Word Nr. G1996] -“EPISYNAGO” – meaning “TO COLLECT UPON the SAME PLACE … GATHER TOGETHER” - as used in Matt. 24:29-31 - or “CAUGHT UP” in 1 Thess. 4:15-17 . It is also the same as “SNATCH AWAY”. It is a happening described where there is NO JUDGMENT and NO PUNISHMENT – a GLORIOUS DAY for all WHO BELIEVE. It is described as a event that will happen quickly … instantly … at a time we do not expect it - when the DEAD will RISE with NEW (heavenly) BODIES and those still alive will RECEIVE NEW (heavenly) BODIES to meet the King IN THE AIR … to be with Him FOREVER.
CAUGHT UP ALONG with the RESURRECTED DEAD IN THE CLOUDS to MEET YAHWEH-YAHSHUA IN THE AIR:
“IN the AIR” mentioned in the following Scripture is important for it is clear that it is NOT the same EVENT as the second coming of Messiah [*see underneath].
1 Thess. 4:13-18 “Now also we would not have you ignorant, brethren, about those who fall asleep in death that you may not grieve for them as the rest do who have no hope beyond the grave. For since we believe that Yahshua died and rose again, even so God will also bring with Him through Yahshua THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP IN DEATH.
:15 For this we DECLARE to you by YAHWEH-YAHSHUA’S OWN WORD, that WE WHO ARE ALIVE and REMAIN UNTIL the COMING of YAHWEH-YAHSHUA shall in NO WAY PRECEDE INTO HIS PRESENCE or have ANY ADVANTAGE AT ALL OVER THOSE who HAVE PREVIOUSLY FALLEN ASLEEP IN Him in death.
:16 For YAHWEH-YAHSHUA Himself will DESCEND FROM HEAVEN with a LOUD CRY of SUMMONS, with the SHOUT of an ARCHANGEL, and with the BLAST of the TRUMPET of YAH. And THOSE who have DEPARTED THIS LIFE IN MESSIAH will RISE FIRST.
:17-18 THEN WE, the LIVING ONES WHO REMAIN on the EARTH, shall SIMULTANEOUSLY be CAUGHT UP ALONG with the RESURRECTED DEAD IN THE CLOUDS to MEET YAHWEH-YAHSHUA IN THE AIR; and SO ALWAYS through the ETERNITY of ETERNITIES we SHALL BE WITH YAH! Therefore, COMFORT and ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHER WITH THESE WORDS.”
WE WILL CHANGE IN A FLASH – in the TWINKLING OF AN EYE:
With the rapture, those of us who are still alive will be changed – given a heavenly body in a flash – in the twinkling of an eye when the LAST TRUMPET SOUND. (1 Cor. 15:50-52)
MESSIAH WILL COME FOR HIS BRIDE and TAKE THEM to HEAVEN:
John 14:1-3 “Do NOT LET your HEARTS be TROUBLED. YOU BELIEVE in YAH; BELIEVE also in Me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I WILL COME BACK AND TAKE YOU TO BE WITH ME that you also MAY BE WHERE I AM.” (see also 1 Cor. 15:20-23; 1 John 3:2; Phil. 3:20-21).
LIVING IN EXPECTATION of the RAPTURE – HOLD FAST and REPENT:
Rev. 3:3 “Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; HOLD FAST to it, and REPENT. But if you do NOT WAKE UP, I WILL COME LIKE A THIEF, and YOU WILL NOT KNOW AT WHAT TIME I WILL COME to you.”
The RAPTURE is IN THE MIDDLE of the TRIBULATION. We are ALREADY in the TRIBULATION … and those who cannot see this are still blinded and undone.
THE RAPTURE WILL COME BEFORE YAHWEH’S WRATH:
1 Thess. 5:9 “For YAH DID NOT APPOINT us to SUFFER WRATH but to RECEIVE SALVATION THROUGH our YAH, MESSIAH YAHSHUA.”
Rev. 3:10 “Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I WILL ALSO KEEP you from the HOUR OF TRIAL that is GOING to COME on the WHOLE WORLD to TEST the INHABITANTS of the EARTH.”
[*] The SECOND COMING:
The second coming of Messiah is filled with JUDGMENT (Rom. 2:16).
Rev. 19:11-16 “I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose Rider is called Faithful and True. With justice He JUDGES AND WAGES WAR. His eyes are LIKE BLAZING FIRE, and on HIS HEAD are MANY CROWNS …The ARMIES of HEAVEN WERE FOLLOWING Him, riding on white horses … Coming out of His mouth is a SHARP SWORD with which to strike down the nations. … On his robe and on His thigh He has this name written: King of kings and Master of masters.”
Isa. 24:21-22 “So it will happen IN THAT DAY,
that Yahweh will PUNISH the HOST OF HEAVEN ON HIGH,
And the KINGS OF THE EARTH ON EARTH.
They will be gathered together like prisoners in a dungeon,
and will be confined in prison …”
Zeph. 1:14-18 “Near is the GREAT DAY of YAHWEH,
Near and COMING VERY QUICKLY;
Listen, the DAY of YAHWEH!
In it the WARRIOR CRIES OUT BITTERLY.
A DAY OF WRATH IS THAT DAY,
A DAY of TROUBLE AND DISTRESS,
A DAY of DESTRUCTION and DESOLATION,
A DAY of DARKNESS and GLOOM,
A DAY of CLOUDS and THICK DARKNESS,
A DAY of TRUMPET and BATTLE CRY …”
Isaiah 13:9 “Behold, the day of YAHWEH is coming,
CRUEL, with FURY and BURNING ANGER,
TO MAKE the LAND A DESOLATION;
And He will EXTERMINATE ITS SINNERS from it.
… the SUN will be DARK when it rises
And the MOON WILL NOT shed its light
THUS I WILL PUNISH the WORLD for ITS EVIL
And the WICKED for their INIQUITY;
I will PUT AN END to the ARROGANCE of the PROUD
And ABASE the HAUGHTINESS of the RUTHLESS.”
Jer. 46:10 “For THAT DAY BELONGS to YAHWEH God of HOSTS,
A DAY OF VENGEANCE, so as to AVENGE HIMSELF on His FOES;
And the SWORD will DEVOUR and be SATIATED …
For their will be a SLAUGHTER …”
Ezekiel 30:3-4
“For the DAY IS NEAR,
Even the day of YAHWEH is NEAR;
It will be a DAY OF CLOUDS,
A TIME OF DOOM for the NATIONS …”
Isaiah 27:1 “In THAT DAY YAHWEH WILL PUNISH LEVIATHAN the FLEEING SERPENT,
With His FIERCE and GREAT AND MIGHTY SWORD,
Even LEVIATHAN the TWISTED SERPENT;
And He will KILL the DRAGON …”
Joel 3:12-14 “Let the NATIONS be AROUSED
And come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat,
FOR THERE I WILL SIT to JUDGE
ALL the SURROUNDING NATIONS.
… For the DAY of YAHWEH IS NEAR in the VALLEY of DECISION.”
Rom. 2:16 “…on the DAY WHEN, according to My GOSPEL, YAH WILL JUDGE the SECRETS of MEN THROUGH MESSIAH YAHSHUA.”
With the SECOND COMING of MESSIAH – His FEET WILL STAND on the MOUNT of OLIVES – causing it to SPLIT IN TWO CREATING A VALLEY - Zech. 14:3-4 “Then Yahweh will go OUT TO FIGHT AGAINST THOSE NATIONS, as He FIGHTS in the DAY of BATTLE. ON THAT DAY HIS FEET will STAND on the MOUNT OF OLIVES, EAST of JERUSALEM, and the MOUNT of OLIVES will be SPLIT IN TWO from EAST to WEST, forming a GREAT VALLEY, with HALF the MOUNTAIN MOVING to the NORTH and HALF to the SOUTH.”
Luke 6:46 “Why do you call Me YAH, YAH (Lord, Lord) and DO NOT PRACTICE WHAT I TELL YOU?”
It is clear that the RAPTURE is the GATHERING UP of the BRIDE of MESSIAH. It is NOT the CHURCH. It is THOSE who ARE WALKING in a HABITUAL LIFE with the King. It is THOSE who are OBEDIENT to HIS WORD and HIS COMMANDMENTS. It is THOSE who LISTEN to HIS WORD AND DO it! (Luke 6:46 “Why do you call Me YAH, YAH (Lord, Lord) and DO NOT PRACTICE WHAT I TELL YOU?)
Jer. 51:45 “COME OUT OF HER, My PEOPLE! SAVE YOUR LIVES!
IT IS NOT the CHURCH for the CHURCH in its whole (the UNIVERSAL CHURCH) is an APOSTATE CHURCH – a church that still are functioning in the ancient BABYLON system – still functioning under the Constantinian religiousness – a church who never laid down the deception … still enduring the SPIRITS of INIQUITY in their MIDST … the SPIRITS of FORNICATION and ADULTERY and SEXUAL IMMORALITY AND PERVERSITY and WICKEDNESS etc. It is a people who NEED to COME OUT of her … TURNING AWAY from the SINFULNESS and TURNING WHOLEHEARTEDLY to the KING. It is a CHURCH THAT IS LOST! … a CHURCH that is FAST ASLEEP!
Rev. 18:4 “Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “COME OUT OF HER, My PEOPLE, that you be not PARTAKERS of her SINS, and that you RECEIVE NOT of her PLAGUES. “
Isaiah 48:20 “GO FORTH OUT of Babylon, FLEE from the CHALDEANS! …”
Jer. 51:6 “FLEE out of the MIDST of BABYLON! Let every man save his LIFE! Let NOT DESTRUCTION COME UPON you through her PUNISHMENT for HER SIN and GUILT. For it is A TIME of YAHWEH’S VENGEANCE; He will RENDER to HER A RECOMPENSE.”
For quite some time now three MAIN END-TIME SPRITS – DEMONIC SPIRITS – LOATHSOME (hateful, despicable, disgusting, abhorrent, vile, repulsive) spirits have flooded the world. These spirits … “LIKE FROGS” – came out of the MOUTH of the DRAGON (Satan) and from the MOUTH of the BEAST (the antichrist – the lawless one) and from the MOUTH of the FALSE PROPHET (pope, Vatican) (Rev. 16:3).
Rev. 16:13 “And I saw three loathsome SPIRITS like FROGS from the MOUTH of the DRAGON and from the MOUTH of the BEAST and from the MOUTH of the FALSE PROPHET. For really they are the SPIRITS of DEMONS that PERFORM SIGNS. And THEY GO FORTH to the RULERS and LEADERS ALL OVER the WORLD, to GATHER THEM TOGETHER for WAR on the GREAT DAY of YAHWEH the ALMIGHTY.”
O Abba Father, we PRAY for FORGIVENESS of our SINS. We prophesy to the 4 winds … O BREATH of YAHWEH God breathe upon the DRY AND ARID PLACES in Messiah’s name. O Bring LIFE O Father to the dark and depleted corners of the earth. Send in the WINDS of HEALING to HEAL AND RESTORE … Let NEW LIFE BRING ABOUT the BIRTHING of DIVING DESTINIES. Let Your PROMISES be BIRTHED upon the earth and in our lives and manifest into their fullness. Make every crooked place straight Father, in Yahshua’s name. We pray, that in the times we are living in right now, that our eyes and ears will be opened to the truth and that Your Word will manifest in our lives as we SPEAK LIFE and SURVIVAL. REVIVE Your children Abba, resurrect what’s been lost … breathe new LIFE INTO OUR HOPES, DREAMS and GODLY DESIRES. O Let our PRAYERS meet with the HEAVENS …. Causing an INCREASE to FLOW upon us causing a MIGHTY RUMBLE in the SPIRITUAL atmosphere.
Abba … we declare EVERY BONDAGE to be BROKEN, in the MIGHTY NAME of our SAVIOR … REDEEMER and King. O let ANYTHING and ALL THINGS that stand in our ways be dismantled so that we will have BREAKTHROUGHS in all our efforts. We ask for eradicating of ALL DISEASES … SICKNESS … FINANCIAL STRESS … OPPRESSION … FEAR … DEPRESSION … DEMONIC ATTACKS … OFFENCES … ALL CURSES and GENERATIONAL CURSES … every EVIL and PREMEDITATED EVIL ASSIGNMENT AGAINST us … all EVIL INTENTS … all witchcraft and CHANNELLING to FLEE in YAHSHUA’S NAME. We declare HEALING – SALVATION – TRANSFORMATION – REFORMATION and RESOURCES to FLOW into us. We ask for RELEASE from TIES that BIND, and a RESTORING of EVERYTHING the ENEMY has PLUNDERED and STOLEN from us – our bodies – our families – our family bloodline and Your kingdom. We DECLARE EVERY CURSE to be NULL AND VOID and EVERY WORD CURSE to be DEMOLISHED and brought to NOTHING in Yahshua’s name. We bind the FORCES OF DARKNESS and EVERY ARROW that’s been sent to WRECK HAVOC in our LIVES to be REROUTED BACK INTO the ENEMY’S CAMP. We PRAY for YOUR BLESSINGS on and over us and we RECEIVE OUR BLESSINGS to be A BLESSING.
We DECREE in YAHSHUA’S NAME – a NEW DAY – a NEW SEASON – a FRESH ANOINTING and ASSIGNMENT – rains of BLESSINGS – INCREASE and WINDS of RENEWAL into our LIVES and the LIVES of our LOVED-ONES. We PRAY for SPIRIT FIRE in YAHSHUA’S NAME – for ANOINTING – A STIRRING up of our GIFTS WITHIN us and for us all to JUMP into YOUR RIVER of LIFE.
