3/29/2012 Day 10 of 77 Watching

I've been seeing 11 everywhere. I know what the enemy's camp thinks this number means but what should we care as believers what they think it means? I asked the Lord why am I (a believer) seeing 11 everywhere at what should I think about it?

Maybe we should be watching the 11th day of the coming months? I don't know for sure. What I do know is that the 11th day of next month (April) falls during Passover and during the span of this brother's 77 day watch. Could this Passover be special for some reason? Could the rapture occur? Its possible. Could the tribulation start? Its possible. Could WW3 start? Its possible.

As an obedient servant watching in readiness for the Master's return, each and every day could be the special day when our Lord returns for us. It just so happens that during the span of heightened awareness here we see the next special season of days known as Passover.

The Lord does not speak audibly with me. He never has even once. I asked Him recently about people who are having dreams and visions of His return and why is it when I ask Him to show me these things does He not give them to me? Answer? He doesn't speak that way to me. He treats us as individuals. Another point the Lord made to me is He wants faith from us. Which requires more faith, a person who hears the Lord through the spirit internally with no visions or dreams or someone who has dreams and visions every night? It takes more faith to believe without dreams and visions....I am not discounting those people who get them, that is not the point. The point is, the Lord wants to see faith from us and if we don't need dreams and visions in our walk, He is not giving them to us. He speaks to each of us in His own way. He does so in a way that is most beneficial for the Body and for our personal walk with Him.

I believe the Lord impressed upon me that 11 could be the day the servants of the enemy think we leave this earth and the restrainer is removed, which is also the same day their hell on earth plan begins which is why they are looking forward to it. They deny the pre-trib rapture on one hand while at the same time they are preparing for it and looking forward to it.

Why look forward to it? They are being restrained right now. They have a choke chain around their necks. They want to unleash hell on earth but cannot do so because of the Restrainer.

There have been a number of brothers and sisters who have had dreams and visions that point to April. I take these dreams and visions seriously, we all should. If nothing happens, we were supposed to be watching and ready for the Lord anyway right? Lets be ready should the Lord return. I will continue watching in prayer. The Lord has been breaking off of me everything that has prevented my walk from being perfect in the past (not that I am perfect now). That is a sign to me that He is preparing His Bride to meet Him and we may be in the final days before we see Him. 67 more days in my heightened watch and readiness season. I've seen enough evidence now to believe this is more than warranted for all of us.

These things are whats on this brothers mind today. Grace and peace

M6.4 Honshu Japan-Day 8 of 77 Watching


Large quake after large quake after large quake. Earthquakes are signature judgement used by the Lord in Revelation. He is revealing Himself and using earthquakes as punctuation marks to emphasize His coming. Don't take my word for it you can find it in the Bible:

The criticism of watching for the rapture continues to mount. All kinds of excuses are used as to why we should not watch for the Lord's return. What happens when and if the Lord does not return for us when this 77 day watch is over? There are some ridiculous mockers out there who say "you will lose your faith." That kind of statement tells me alot about their faith (or lack of it) and nothing about where I stand with the Lord. We were told to watch for the Lord's return, period. Not start watching at some date, not stop watching on some date, watch period that means each and every day until the Lord shows up.

So, back to the question, what happens when 77 days are over and maybe the Lord has not called us up? Duh, we continue to watch. How hard is it to understand "watch?" That's not my command, that is the Lord's command to us. If we refuse to watch like many do today, the Lord will come like a thief and catch those not watching unprepared. Again, not my words:

Revelation 3:3

... repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief,
and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

How many times does the Lord have to say it before people understand? They make excuses why not to watch right now. "Oh, He's talking about this time, no that time, no some other time!" Wrong, He is talking about now. Do you see any qualifying words around "watch?" I don't, and if the Lord gave us no starting date when to start watching, then when does He mean to watch? Now.

I have yet to read or hear an argument that even comes close to approach the supremacy of watching and being ready for the Lord's return each and every day. We might not live to see the rapture, who knows how many days have been appointed for each of us? Then what. Whether we die out or rapture out the requirement stays the same, we must be ready today to meet the Lord. There is no way around this except for insanity, blindness or purposeful deception.

The signs of the Lords return are all around us. No man knows the day or the hour but perhaps we may be alerted to the season. Could we be living in the season of the Lord's return. Maybe so. Then what? Then we must be ready to stand before Him and we should pray that we may be counted worthy to escape all thats about to happen, that we may be kept from the hour of trial that will come upon the entire world. We should pray that the Lord will rescue us since He knows how to rescue righteous men from temptations/testing/tribulation.

2 Peter 2:9

if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials= ( peirasmou- an experiment, a trial, temptation) and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.

Keep the faith. May the love, grace, peace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ be upon us.

Day 7 of 77, Watching for the Lord's Return

A couple items today.

Edit 2:51 p.m. eastern standard time-6.0 just struck off the coast of Mexico. Quakes, quakes and more large quakes. When the foundations are shaken who can stand...
http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/

1. Watch Turkey, the quakes there are all over the place as usual the past few weeks but they are getting much larger. One both ends of the country today they posted M5+ quakes. It's just something to be aware of.

2. Confirmation in prayer. I asked the Lord in prayer this morning to take my mind and attention away from the destroyer, earthquakes, and volcanoes etc if these are things that are not real signs for us or have no place in His thinking for us. I also asked if I should be watching somewhere else. His reply was immediate and concrete. The only way I can describe the answer is an immediate rock solid certainty in my spirit that I should continue watching what and where I have been watching.

I will continue to check myself against the Lord's Spirit to ensure I am not going astray of His will. We all need to do this. I don't care a whit about being wrong or right personally. What I do care about it making sure the Lord's Spirit flows unimpeded through this vessel so what He would say to you, is said to you (and me). I do care about getting the Lord's work accomplished as He would have me do it.

Keep the faith. May the love, grace, peace and mercy of our Lord Jesus be upon us.

M7.2 Earthquake, Maule Chile


Two very large quakes now, not even a week apart from each other. 7.9 in Mexico on 3/20, 7.2 in Chile 3/25. It's called evidence...the destroyer is inbound.

At the time I am posting this the quake is 3hrs old and there is zero, none, nada about it on CNN, MSN etc. Media blackout. It appears that what kind of ring miley cyrus will get or nobody gives batman a ticket and a slew of other ridiculous articles are more important....With two very large quakes like this happening back to back you'd think there would be some eyebrows raised. Which is why they blackout the story.

Day 6 of 77 Watching- March 25, 2012

2 items today:

1. More evidence of the approach of the destroyer. We can start with this headline from the lamestream media


6,000 records broken for warmth. This past week I saw smoking gun evidence of the presence of the destroyer on the back side of the earth (side facing away from sun). The disturbance to the magnetosphere on that side by a sun like object is proof positive that this object is there and that it is close. The Lord also confirmed to me with 3 witnesses that this warmth is connected to the volcanism which is connected to the earth outgassing all over the United States (link below) which is connected to the existence of this destroyer.


Here's the deal with this destroyer and how the evidence is being handled by the world. Each piece of evidence is being treated as an isolated incident. No attempts are made by any of the media outlets or most of the population to link the evidence together. This is a great tactic for reporting to people who would rather not know the truth. Any analyst however, that is worth his title takes data points/pieces of evidence and finds the NEXUS that links them together.

Ask any intel professional how the job gets done in the real world. The evidence must be linked and it must make sense. How many theories do you know of right now that explains all of the evidence we are seeing in one coherent theory? Norway spiral, bird deaths, dolphin deaths, sea lion deaths, honey bee deaths, solar activity, comet activity, magnetosphere anomalies, strange sounds heard across the world, WW3 at the brink, economic collapse, the denver airport murals, apostasy in the churches, massive dark coronal hole shaped like a triangle or a cloaked figure, earthquakes increasing in intensity and frequency, data manipulation of space based data by the governments of the world, chemtrails, tornadoes in February etc. The list is getting very long and there is a thread that runs through all of it. There is a nexus. Most people would rather bury their head and wish it all away.

The revealing/revelation is beginning and the world is not happy about it. Its getting harder and harder to bury their head when the hole they dig to bury it is shaking like a washing machine on spin cycle. At that point all these people can do is close their eyes and say "this isnt happening, this isnt happening!" but it is happening. The time people have to give their Creator the cold shoulder is coming to an end.

The movie 2012 started with a scene that showed people down in a mine in india with a hole in the ground filled with boiling water from the heat in the earths core. Watch the volcano activity, watch the outgassing across the U.S. Its another piece of the puzzle and it fits without having to be forced into place, the destroyer is coming.

2. Preparing our defense. We will all stand before the Lord and give an account for ourselves. The Lord impressed upon me the need for us to spend more time in His Word to prepare ourselves for what is coming. When the Lord asks us to give an account for ourselves, it will be good for us to have His own Word flowing out of our mouths, back to Him in defense of our lives. I cannot imagine that as we answer for ourselves before Him He will take away our Helper the Holy Spirit who brings to mind the Word when we need it. Our judge and our defense team are the same one God. Interesting :-).

A last note on this 77 day watch I am doing. There are so many days where things are not perfect. I want to spend time with the Lord but my wife or kids are doing something or want something or something else is going on in the house, I won't feel good, I have a hard time thinking straight, and any number of other things is going on to distract me but I spend the time with Him anyway. Sometimes I just stare at the pages in a mental fog asking the Lord for help because I have a hard time thinking. I tell you these things to give you an idea of how imperfect this brother is and all the imperfections that get in the way of an ideal time with the Lord but we have to get together with Him anyway in spite of all the obstacles. The Lord knows our hearts, the effort to be with Him counts. We may not feel like we are getting anything accomplished because of how imperfect these times are but we need to press forward anyway.

The Lord knows what we are facing, how bad we feel, that we cant think straight half the time, that we have distractions etc. He knows. We need to take the attitude of soldiers and at least attempt to do what we think we should be doing even if it seems to end in failure most of the time. The Lord credits us for our effort, for our will to be with Him and please Him. Don't give up. The hour appears to be late.

May the love, peace, joy and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with us.

Japan Has Gone Silent-Day 5 of 77 of Watch

Edit: This evening at around 10pm eastern standard time 3/24 they had another 4.8 in the usual area. Broke the silence of two days :-)


After seeing thousands of quakes strike the same area of Japan over the past year, now you can't find a single quake there. Take a look:


The area around Turkey however is an entirely different story. Earthquakes are all over the place.

Why write about earthquakes here? The Lord has directed this writers attention to this particular sign of His coming. A destroyer is inbound to the earth. The latest installment in this saga was the 8.4? 7.9? 7.4? quake that hit mexico on 3/20. The USGS and other governments have been caught time and time again revising their data downward or completely erasing data so who knows how big that quake actually was.

The takeaway from that quake was yet again it did not strike a highly populated area, there were no reported deaths. Thank the Lord. These warnings are acts of mercy toward mankind. The warnings are coming from every corner of the earth these days. Strange sounds, volcanos going active, earthquakes frequent and intense, animal deaths, people at each others throats more than ever, on the verge of economic collapse, on the verge of WW3, etc.

What is it that keeps all of these things restrained today? The Restrainer. When the righteous are removed, just like in the days of Noah and Lot, then destruction comes on the same day. The Word of the Lord said it and we have been seeing this restraint for years now. I have been amazed at the Lord's patience and longsuffering towards this world. I would have thought we would be out of here years ago but here we remain. What has this taught me? This waiting and restraint can go on indefinitely. That's right, the same God who has restrained the forces of destruction and lawlessness can hold them back like the waves of the red sea were restrained during the exodus from Egypt... for as long as necessary.

Could 2012 be just another year of signs everywhere and restraint holding back destruction? Sure it could. Or, we could be pulled out of here and all hell breaks loose. This is why we must be watching and ready for the Lord each and every day. Those people who believe they have some other sign or signal to look for before the Lord can return are gambling in a gamble they are likely to lose. How can you possibly go wrong with watching and readiness each and every day? You cannot go wrong. If you are watching and ready every day then REGARDLESS of when the Lord returns you will be ready. Do you think that's why we were told not to concern ourselves with dates and times?

We will see who the wise and foolish virgins are soon enough. I would not wish entrance to the tribulation on anybody, not the "other tribbers" not the wicked, nobody. If it were up to me every soul would be given some other kind of wake up call, but not the tribulation.

This is day 5 of 77 in my watch for the Lord's return. I am not predicting anything, I am watching and preparing for the return of the Lord in an above average way over a period of 77 days. I have seen enough evidence for me to believe this kind of watch is warranted.

Today I believe there are two things the Lord conveyed to me. 1. Mercy, there is still time to repent and turn back to the Lord for restoration and right standing with Him. Its not too late to turn around. 2. There is a growing chorus of criticism and mocking of my attention to the earthquakes. Let me say this simply, the Lord has directed my attention as I stand watch. My Commander has given me orders. I will obey those orders and watch where I have been told to watch until I am given new orders. Mock if you want to. Criticize if you want to. A destroyer is inbound to the earth, I am now certain of it. What this destroyer is exactly I do not know and I don't particularly care. What does it really matter? The effects will be the same regardless of what we call it.

If you want to know what the effects of the arrival of this destroyer are, read the Word of the Lord. Here are some of them:

- peals of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning and an earthquake.

-hail and fire mixed with blood hurled down upon the earth. A third of the earth burned up, a third of the trees burned up, and all the green grass burned up.

-a huge mountain, all ablaze, thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turns into blood, a third of the living creatures die, and a third of the ships are destroyed.

- a great star, blazing like a torch, falls from the sky on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water, the name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turn bitter, and many people die from the waters that become bitter.

-a third of the sun will be struck, a third of the moon also, and a third of the stars, so that a third of them turn dark. A third of the day will be without light, and also a third of the night.

And all this is just a small sample of whats coming to the earth. This ^^ is not my opinion or speculation, this is the Word of God Almighty who has spoken it and it will come to pass exactly as it was written.

This world and those who belong to this world have a script written around every event that will take place during the tribulation. They will use every excuse and figment of their imagination to explain away all the events that will arrive as a result of judgement wrath and vengeance. They will use every lie and misdirection at their disposal to attempt to hide the truth from the inhabitants of the earth. The people of this world latch on to these lies like a life raft to explain away the truth. They do not want the Creator or His Son, they want their own ways. As the revealing (revelation) plays out, many will die holding onto the lies they seek refuge in. It does not have to be this way. People have a choice, they are able to choose.

Today is a day of mercy and restraint. The Lord is holding out His hands to every person on this earth today. The path that leads to life is narrow and the gate is small but the gate is still open. If anyone is listening today, seek your Creator. Turn away from rebellion and break yourself on your knees before the God who knows you inside and out. Accept mercy and grace today while they are offered. A time is coming when wrath and judgement will be offered and mens hearts will become hardened. Today (so far) is not that day. Time is running out.

Keep the faith. May the Lord's grace, peace and mercy be upon all of us.

Area Around Japan Went Completely Quiet

Sometime yesterday or the day before Japan went from earthquakes on the half hour to silent. Look at the map right now and there is not even a 1.0 anywhere near Japan. What I am used to seeing is constant nonstop rattling of that area but instead we see the opposite.


What does that mean? It looks freaky based on what we have seen in the area since 3/11/2011.

On another subject I have noticed an increase in ridicule for anyone who suggests a destroyer is inbound to the earth. Here's a newflash for these people. As the book of Revelation plays out, every single event in the book will be explained away and downplayed by this world. What do I mean? There are HUGE earthquakes that will take place in Rev 6 and Rev 8. What will the world say when they happen? I will tell you...

They will give you any excuse they can think up as long as its not the truth, the wrath and judgement of God has arrived. They will tell us it is "haarp" causing all the quakes, not judgement. Maybe they will make some other fiction up to explain things away, point is that not just earthquakes but everything else written in the book of Revelation has a pre-planned script written around it to explain things away with a non-biblical excuse.

It is happening today and it will continue to happen.

be watching be ready. This is day 4 of 77 of my watch for the Lord's return. Keep the faith, grace and peace.

M6.7 Quake Papua New Guinea

Large quake this morning in New Guinea.


These large quakes have almost been on top of each other, and like the Bible says they are in diverse places. This is day 3 of my 77 day watch for the return of the Lord. Why do a special watch for 77 days?

1. Because I have seen mounting evidence that points to the Lord's return
2. Because we are commanded to watch and be ready everyday

The Lord recently convinced me of the reality and nearness of the destroyer. This celestial object is no figment of the imagination, it is real and it is coming. The evidence I have seen indicates it will be here soon. What soon means exactly I don't know. I don't need to know. About times and dates brothers, I need not write to you....remember? We do not know the day or hour, but can we know the season? I think so, maybe.

In any case, when we see what we believe to be convincing evidence all around us we should prepare. It will go well for those servants who are found watching when the Lord returns.

grace and peace

The Destroyer is Inbound

The discovery of that video yesterday showing the earth's magnetosphere acting as if it were on the sun facing side of the earth convinced me 100% that the destroyer is indeed inbound and close to the earth.


As I watched the video I believe the Lord said inside me "now you can be sure." The best way to describe it is I know that I know that I know that I know for sure.

Do I have to prove anything to anyone else? No. For months now the Lord has directed my attention to look up. Look at the heavens. What does the Word say? When all these things begin to happen, do what? LOOK UP

As I see various things the inner witness either confirms what I am seeing is real/true or tells me to look someplace else. One video is not enough proof of anything, but combined with spirals in the sky, mass animal deaths, earthquakes, volcanoes activity, the elite running the economy into the ground, preparation for WW3, apostasy in the church etc etc etc etc, the case has been made at length that this destroyer is no figment of anyones imagination.

This is day 2 of 77 of this brothers watch and prayer vigil for the return of the Lord. With the evidence I now see we would be wise to be watching and ready for the Lord's return.

Smoking Gun Evidence That The Destroyer is Inbound

If today's very large earthquake in Mexico following a multi year pattern was not enough evidence, this should be


What is this telling us? We are on the Leo side of the sun right now with the destroyer coming in from behind us in space. The data this guy is showing indicates that there is some kind of celestial object acting like the sun by compressing our magnetosphere on the opposite side of the earth from the sun. To say this as simply as possible, what we are seeing on the back side of the earth is something that should only be seen on the sun facing side of the earth.

Wonder why they are hiding this from us? This is smoking gun evidence, irrefutable proof of the destroyer. 2012 is shaping up to be the year it was advertised to be.

Be watching and ready for the rescue/escape rapture. It is certainly coming.

grace and peace

Will Mexico Experience This Years Mega-Quake?

Today a 7.9 Magnitude quake hit Mexico.


As a reminder of what happened last year, Japan experienced a 7.2 quake on 3/9, two days before the 9.0 on 3/11 in the same place.


The precursor quake was a warning for the larger one that followed, when will we learn?

We do not have long to wait to find out, but if a lowly nobody like me recognizes this pattern, why do the governments not warn their people?

Be watching, be ready for the Lord's return. Grace and peace




M7.9 Earthquake Just Struck Mexico


The proof in front of our faces guys. This quake is a hair away from a Magnitude 8. This is called evidence of an incoming destroyer. It cannot be explained away anymore. How many years in a row do we have to see this pattern repeat before people get it.

Major earthquakes are a signature judgement used by the Lord in the book of Revelation to judge and express His wrath. The link between now and then is being established for us before our eyes. The destroyer coming toward the earth is being prepared for by the elite while the masses stagger through life in a sleepwalk.

Does a magnitude 8 earthquake qualify as a mega-quake? Close enough but these quakes are just getting started, we are not finished by a longshot. WATCH and be ready for the Lord's return...

The Certainty of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture

I spent time with the Lord this morning in the book of Peter. What did I see?

2 Peter 24For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell,a putting them into gloomy dungeonsb to be held for judgment; 5if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others; 6if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; 7and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men 8(for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— 9if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment

In the presence of two or three witnesses we establish truth right?

1. Luke 21:36-escape from all promised to those found worthy

2. Revelation 3:10 the promise to be kept from the hour of testing

3. 2 Peter 2-the Lord knows how to RESCUE godly men from trials...that word trials there is the same word used in Revelation 3:10 for testing. Let the bible interpret the bible right? Furthermore, when we look at the word used for "rescue" in 2 Peter 2 what do we find?

There are three ^^^

The word is ῥύεσθαι ruesthai 4506 to draw to oneself, i.e. deliver

To draw to oneself....sound like the rapture to you? Caught up in the clouds to be with the Lord forever sound familiar? It does to me. And whats the context used in 2 Peter 2? The stories of Noah and Lot. Over and over again the Lord presses this point home. What specifically does the Lord tell us about Noah and Lot?

Luke 17:27 ...until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came...
Luke 17:29 ...the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all...

The day that the righteous leave, destruction falls.

More and more people these days are denying there will be a pre-tribulation rapture. Not only does this defy the plain reading of scripture, it also defies any basic sense. How does it make sense to believe your way out of an escape from the tribulation? If there was no pre-tribulation rapture (which there certainly is) then you would instantly be looking for the rapture at some other point once you were sure that the tribulation had started and the rapture had not occurred yet. As it is, many many people confessing Christianity have zero faith that the Lord will do what He clearly said He would do. 2 Peter 2 tells us the Lord knows how to rescue the righteous from the time of testing, how much clearer could it be said?

He did it for Noah, He did it for Lot, but masses of people today believe the Lord will not do it for them. What happens if the Lord deals with them according to their lack of faith and leaves them here to face the tribulation after rescuing the Bride like He said He would? What will happen to their faith when they face the reality that they missed the escape? How many of them will fall away?

Recently the Lord has given me even more evidence of the certainty of the pre-tribulation rapture/escape/rescue of His people. The enemy is busy employing their servants to deny the existence of the rapture/escape/rescue while at the same time they are getting ready for it themselves!

Why hasn't the economy collapsed yet? Destruction falls AFTER the pre-tribulation rapture.

Why hasn't WW3 started yet? Destruction falls AFTER the pre-tribulation rapture.

Why haven't people been rounded up for FEMA camps yet? Destruction falls AFTER the pre-tribulation rapture.

Why hasn't Babylon (America AND Rome) been destroyed yet? Destruction falls AFTER the pre-tribulation rapture.

Why haven't a myriad of other threats to humanity begun to radically impact the masses of humanity? Destruction falls AFTER the pre-tribulation rapture.

They can mock if they want to. The Lord told us clearly this would be the time of mockers. "Where is the promise of His coming" they ask.

The evidence is all around us that destruction on a scale unimaginable is coming soon, the signs are everywhere. I do not want to stay on this planet an second longer than I have to when I consider the great and precious promises the Lord has made to us. When the Lord speaks, we would be wise to take Him at His Word. When we are promised something, we would be wise to hold that promise tight in our hearts minds and spirits until the promise is fulfilled.

What would have happened to Noah if he told the Lord that he wanted to hang around on a piece of wood floating along the flood to continue preaching because "his work wasn't done yet." Who determines when our work is done for the Lord? Us? Who is the servant and who is the Master? Do you see the insanity these people who discount the escape practice in their reasoning?

What if Lot told the angels to get out of town because he wasn't finished trying to convert homosexuals in Sodom? Isn't it ridiculous to even ask these questions? Yet this same line of reasoning is what we hear day in and day out from people who call themselves Christians today.

It makes no sense to me whatsoever to believe myself out of the rescue/escape/rapture that the Lord details for us in His Word. If I am wrong about the timing of the rapture then my faith is in Jesus and I will soldier on as I have done up to this point. If "they" are wrong about the pre-tribulation rapture then it is possible many of them may not escape and they will be very very sorry.

Today is day 1 of my 77 day watch for the return of the Lord. I am not predicting the Lord will return, I am watching the signs and signals all around us and preparing myself in case the Lord does return. I don't see any reward for people who are found not watching when the Master returns. For them I see harsh punishment. For those found watching there is a reward.

Luke 1235“Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, 36like men waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him. 37It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. I tell you the truth, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them. 38It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night. 39But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. 40You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”

Keep your lamps burning? Does that bring anything to mind?

Matt 25:1“At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4The wise, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.

6“At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’

7“Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’

9“‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’

10“But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.

11“Later the others also came. ‘Sir! Sir!’ they said. ‘Open the door for us!’

12“But he replied, ‘I tell you the truth, I don’t know you.’

13“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.


I have no idea on what day or hour our Lord will return for us. What I see around us makes me think the season of His return might be upon us. Since I do not know for sure, I must be ready for His return EVERY DAY, unlike the self-confident dismissive and smug who tell us with confidence that the Lord cannot return yet. We will find out soon enough who the wise and who the foolish virgins are. Does it take missing the escape for them to learn to take the Lord at His Word?

These are the thoughts of your brother watching in readiness for the Lords return.

Keep the faith, grace and peace

77 Day Watch Starting Tomorrow

I have many things to write to you today, I hope I can remember all of it. I committed to spending quality time with the Lord twice a day (in prayer constantly but these "two a days" will be time on knees). The moment I committed to this with the Lord, a fire hose opened up of information to my mind. Starting the list here:

1. We are going to have to fight our way across the finish line? The enemy has a problem when trying to attack us because we are shielded by the Lord's power:

1 Peter 1:5

who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the
salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time

The enemy has to use attacks that are permitted by the Lord. Apparently one of those weapons is some kind of closing of the heavens like the angel having to fight his way through the prince of Persia to give Daniel his message. Another way of describing it is static on the radio, the message isnt coming through clearly. Another way is some kind of unseen hand exerting power against us from spending time with the Lord. Another way to describe it is being detached from our foundation, floating, without stability inside. These things are a weapon, I cannot put the words together exactly so I have to describe around it.

The escape from all-luke 21.36-=prevail=overpower, the access door is closing, spiritual attack against those in Christ, arterial blockage=twice the effort to get the same amount of blood through =equivalent to our spiritual situation. We will have engage every ounce of willpower in disciplined effort, in spiritual combat, to fight the communication lines open between ourselves and the Lord and be found worthy of the great escape that is certainly coming.

What does the Lord mean when He tells us to be "good soldiers"
2 Tim 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

This is what it means, what is the life of a soldier? Discipline, suffering, patience, endurance. Also known as the fruits of the Spirit. Re-dedicate, re-engage. If you fall down one day get back up the next, do not give up, re-engage, re-engage, re-engage. Use every ounce of strength and willpower. When you dont have enough pray for more. This will separate the wheat from the chaff. To do what is being described here we have to really want what we are looking for....

2. 77 day watch starting tomorrow morning 3/20/2012, twice per day. Nexus of events converging from late March through end of May. What is the watch about? Finishing strong. The Lord has convinced me to spend time alone with Him every morning when I rise and every night before bed for a special period of watching and readiness. Purpose? Look at the signs around us, they are everywhere its time to get serious. My prayer to the Lord is that I may be counted worthy to escape all that is about to happen and that I may finish strong-I pray this for you as well. I do not want to limp across the finish line, do you? My prayer is to live up to my highest potential in the days before we leave this place. What is the very best I can expect from myself? What does my best look like? What am I talking about? The parable of the virgins is followed by the parable of the talents. What talents has the Lord given you? Are we earning a return on His investment in us. Time may be very short, the nexus has been identified and I'm not taking any chances. Will you watch with me for 77 days? The first step in the right direction is making a decision. What does "decision" mean? De-means away from, cision-cut off. Cutoff from any other way, commit to a way.

I expect to see the Lord face to face sometime soon, any day now. If not I will continue to watch in readiness with great patience like a good soldier. For now I am on high alert for all the reasons written here over the past months.

3. Earthquake watch. Watch Turkey. I do not know where or if a mega-quake will strike in the days ahead but watch Turkey. For weeks now the entire region has been peppered with quakes day after day, every day.

Look at it now, when the map is on the start page you cannot even see the country it is so covered with earthquakes....

Conclusion

I will be watching in prayer every morning and evening over the next 77 days. No one day is more special than the other during this window. I have seen to much convincing evidence that we should step up our preparedness during this time. As I spend time with the Lord, I will report to you what I hear but I believe the Lord does not want you hearing from me most of what you should know. He wants you to fight the good fight to overcome the spiritual static the enemy has placed as an obstacle before us so you can hear from Him what it is you should know.

The Lord wants us as individuals to finish strong. We can only do this if we sell out completely to Him. Every ounce of our body soul and spirit must be given over to Him. We must commit to do whatever it takes to be found in right standing with Him. A one time "decision" does not equal "remaining" in Him. Re-read John 15 for the details. Remaining "in Christ" is a daily, hourly, to the minute, to the second day in day out process. This makes the "work out your salvation" statement in Philippians 2:12 clear.

There is nothing special about the number 77 that I know of aside from its ability to cover the time on the calendar that I believe we should be in a special state of preparedness.

Keep the faith. Grace and peace

Revelation

1 Peter 1:3Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade—kept in heaven for you, 5who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 6In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7These have come so that your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed

The Lord 'revealed' to me a simple but profound thought today as I was reading the Word.

Luke 17:26“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. 27People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.

28“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30“It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed.


You see all this writing about the Son of Man "revealed." What does Luke 17 say? It will be just like the days of Noah and Lot on the day the Son of Man is revealed. What does "revelation" mean? It means REVEALING. What is being revealed? Jesus Christ. To who? To the world.

What is the book of revelation about (simply)? Revealing Jesus Christ to the world.

Understand that there are two groups in the world, the wicked and those who believe and are "in Christ."

When the Son of Man is revealed (revelation) what is the impact on these two groups?

The wicked wail, moan and mourn at the revealing (revelation) of the Lord

The righteous who are "in Christ" rejoice and are filled with gladness.

So the simple question is, as "revelation" the revealing which is outlined in the last book of the bible plays itself out from chapter one forward, what is the outcome/impact on the two above mentioned groups?

Which rapture view best fits with the righteous rejoicing and being filled with gladness as the book of Revelation-the revealing plays itself out?

1 Corinthians 1:7 Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed.

2 Thessalonians 1:7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels.

Romans 1:18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness

Luke 1728“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.

30“It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed


What is all this ^^? Its Revelation. It is revealing the Lord Jesus. This revealing/revelation process has drastically different impacts and outcomes for the wicked, and those who are "in Christ."

The wicked do this:

Revelation 1:7
... He is coming in the clouds, and every eye will see Him, and so will those who pierced
Him; and all the nations of the earth will gaze on Him and mourn.

Contrast that to what happens when the Lord is revealed to the righteous:

2 Thessalonians 1:8He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power 10on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.


We who believe will marvel at Him when we see Him. The wicked/the nations will mourn when they see Him.

Revelation or revealing starts with Chapter 1 right? Who is Jesus 'revealed to" first? The CHURCH. What happens between the letters to the Churches in chapters 2-3 and the opening of the seals in chapter 6? The entire focus shifts TO HEAVEN. Redeemed and rewarded men are seen in heaven in Revealtion 5 before a single seal is opened in Revelation 6. How pray tell did these redeemed and rewarded men get into heaven? I remember reading about an open door in Revelation 3 and 4. What are doors used for? People go in and out of them. Either that or the Lord is writing nonsense to us as some would have us believe.

When a door is opened, it is opened so PEOPLE CAN GO THROUGH IT. If a door is opened in Revelation 3 and 4, and men are NOT traveling in the direction from heaven to earth, which other way could they be going? That's right, from earth to heaven. Does that jive with Luke 21:36 which tells us those found worthy will be standing before the Son of Man? Yes, why? Where is the Son of Man and where would men have to be standing in order to be standing before Him? In heaven, that's where the Lord Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father and that is where those who prevail/overpower/are found worthy will stand when the escape from all (Luke 21:36) happens.

Here's the lexicon for Luke 21:36. The part I wanted to emphasize was cutoff below, its:
κατισχύσητε/katischusēte- stongs number 2729 which means to overpower/prevail as in combat

The day the son of man is revealed (revelation) will be just exactly precisely like the days of Noah and Lot. The precise day that Noah entered the ark, the flood came and destroyed the world. The exact day that Lot left Sodom fire and brimstone fell and destroyed the city. The righteous leaving, escaping, fleeing away IS THE CUE for destruction to fall according to the Word of the Lord. The wicked will mourn, the righteous will rejoice at the REVELATION, the revealing of the Lord Yeshua/Jesus.

As the book of Revelation appears poised to unfold before us, should we mourn or rejoice?

Think about it...
