“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)
My lovely wife and I see videos more than a few times a month of unrepentant people unable to describe what it is they are feeling or experiencing in relation to this world’s path. We listen to people’s accounts of being astounded at some of the latest news stories, of how they are amazed at what is occurring, and we say to each other, “Was that in the Book of Matthew or Daniel?”
“But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.” (1st Cor. 2:14)
We, as perhaps some of you are, are rarely amazed about what we hear or read, we expect these things, and when they materialize, become knowledge to the masses, we are rarely astounded. They are expected.
There is no hierarchal order to the events of these last of days, they have not and will not all arrive all at once, but they will happen before those who have been born-again will be removed. Lovers of selves, sons against fathers, searching for someone to scratch those itchy ears, false prophets, all these are expected. What is interesting is how many of those who have no Spiritual discernment are recognizing that something is amiss, something is wrong far beyond good being called evil.
“Wherefore comfort one another with these words.” (1st Thess. 4:18)
That verse speaks of those who are hid in Christ, who have the full assurance of their salvation easing the fears of our brothers and sisters in Christ when they feel anxious, reminding each other of His faithfulness and His promises. And here I will go out on a limb, so to speak, with no Scriptural verification whatsoever, just a thought for you to contemplate.
Those who are having these feelings of something amiss, something worldwide that is out of place, may be those who will be called to the Lord Jesus Christ after the Rapture. They may be those who will fulfill Revelation 12:11.
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.”
For many years in my youth, I searched many different forms of mysticism, many various spiritual avenues, and then one day the Living God said to me, “Here I am.”
I can envision the same thing happening to these people.
We know that everything of any eternal value that happens on this earth happens first, or is at least formulated, in what we call the Spiritual realm, the advancement of Satan and those who were cast out with him is allowed only by the Most High, and when the days are fulfilled, so will 2nd Thessalonians 2:7 be fulfilled.
“For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.”
Today they have only an inner perception, a feeling that something on a grand scale just isn’t right. When I hear them speaking there really doesn’t seem to be any extreme nervousness or anxiety, not even any real fear, just a knowing, if you will, that they want, they need an answer for.
Now, my brothers and sisters in Christ, my family in the Most High God, do you remember that feeling?
“For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” (1st Cor. 13:12)
Pray for these people, add them to your list of requests to the Almighty, ask that they keep seeking until He reveals Himself to them. The wicked are afraid, the wealthy believe themselves to be impervious, the vile are using these days to every personal advantage for themselves that they can.
These I speak of want an answer, pray they hear clearly when He gives it to them.
