Why It Takes Awhile To Get Your Answers

Did you ever wonder why most of the time when you ask the Lord a question He doesn't just drop the answer into your mind immediately?  I asked the Lord this question a couple weeks ago and here we are a couple weeks later and I just received His answer.

He expects everyone to do their job.  What do we mean by everyone?  That includes the angels.  He expects the angels to do their job.  And what is one of their jobs?

Dan 10:10 And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and upon the palms of my hands. 11And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling. 12Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words. 13But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia. 14Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision is for many days.

They deliver messages.  Ang guess what?  Sometimes they have to fight there way through to get the message through to you and that takes time.  The angels of the Lord are still today in the message delivering business and they are still in the fighting business.

Our God expects the angels to do their jobs, and He expects us to do our jobs.  Each of us has a different purpose and mission in the Kingdom.  Regardless of what our jobs are, we (just like the angels) are expected to fight (with weapons that are not of this world).

2 Cor 10 1Now I Paul myself beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ, who in presence am base among you, but being absent am bold toward you: 2But I beseech you, that I may not be bold when I am present with that confidence, wherewith I think to be bold against some, which think of us as if we walked according to the flesh. 3For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh: 4(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; 6And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.

2 Tim 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

That means you and me, be a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

This was just a note to make you aware of the answer just delivered to this nobody-slave of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Arrival of Cyrus Spells Doom for Babylon

If we wondered why so many in this world have lost their minds over Trump, look no further.  Trump was put into the white house by God Almighty.  The Almighty sent Trump to accomplish the Divine will.  We know that history repeats itself:

Ecc 1:9What has been will be again,

what has been done will be done again;

there is nothing new under the sun.

There was an ancient Cyrus, there is now a modern Cyrus (Trump)

There was ancient Babylon, there is modern Babylon (look around you).  Why is modern Babylon so panicked?  Why the demonic hatred of Trump (Cyrus) that goes beyond what most of us have ever seen in our lifetime?  On a deep level that most of them probably do not understand, they know the arrival of Trump signals the end of them.  The arrival of Cyrus starts the clock on the destruction of Babylon.

If you look at the history of ancient Babylon you can see the timeline stretches back thousands of years.  Then what happened?  The next to last major event on the Babylonian timeline was the arrival of Cyrus to conquer (but not destroy....yet) Babylon.  Go to this site and scroll all the way down to 539 BCE.  What you see is Cyrus conquers Babylon.  What is the next event on the timeline?  Babylon is destroyed by Xerxes.  

There is another parallel here we need to pay attention to.  What nation sits atop the list of most hated, villainized nations on earth?  Iran.  Why is that?  Iran is ancient Persia.  Cyrus came from Persia.  Persia was instrumental in the downfall of Babylon.  Who do we see constantly at odds with Iran (Persia) today?  The west:  Babylon.

Ecc 1:9What has been will be again,

what has been done will be done again;

there is nothing new under the sun.

The clock is ticking on Babylon.  The arrival of Trump (the wrecking ball) signals the beginning of the end of Babylon:

1After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor. 2With a mighty voice he shouted:

“ ‘Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great!’ ^a

She has become a dwelling for demons

and a haunt for every impure spirit,

a haunt for every unclean bird,

a haunt for every unclean and detestable animal.

3For all the nations have drunk

the maddening wine of her adulteries.

The kings of the earth committed adultery with her,

and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.”

Isaiah 13:17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes (Persia-Iran) against them, which shall not regard silver; and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.

18Their bows also shall dash the young men to pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children.

19And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

Trump is not the end of Babylon, but he is the beginning 
of the end of Babylon.

The people in and of this world do not completely understand where their deep hatred of Trump comes from but they feel it in their bones.  Trump is the beginning of the end of them and their anti-Christ globalist communist system that will fall as surely as the sun sets each and every day.

Be encouraged, mighty is the Lord God who judges Babylon and will make an end of all its wickedness and perversion.

2028-2032

The confirmations continue to stack up.  Here is another video with a solar physicist whose model shows possible food shortages 2028-2032.

You can see the slide at the 44:00 mark.  As Dr. Zharkova says in the video, the idea of man made global warming has become more of a religion than a science.  What she presents here is repeatable scientific calculations derived only from the sun (so terrestrial CO2 regardless of the source is irrelevant to the solar based forecast.)

What is more important is that governments should be storing food, starting now for this certainty of a solar minimum both for the population but also for animals.  That is not happening, instead a fraud is perpetuated on all of us with predictable results when 2028-2032 arrives.

Trump is a global warming sceptic but are any efforts being made (like Joseph in Egypt during the 7 years of plenty)?  No.  Even if he wanted to, now that the Democrats have the house no budget could be approved that included preparation for global cooling as they all believe the religion of global warming.

That leaves us, are there things we can do to prepare?  Yes.  We know that the Lord could come back for us at any moment and we should be prepared for that.  We also know the Lord can delay as long as He wants, we must prepare for that as well.

This writer has asked the Lord a number of times "should we stock up on food etc."  It was not until this post was being written that the Spirit of the Lord nudged this writer with the impression=that question has now been answered.

Something Encouraging From the Lord

This writer was driving home tonight when the Lord provided something very encouraging for all of us.  The gist of it is more or less this:

It is no secret that this world is coming apart at the seams.  People are at each others throats, including Christians.  Some Christians are absolutely consumed with politics to the point where they would literally be blindsided should the Lord show up anytime soon.

So what?  So we need to tune it all out.  Yep, turn off the news.  Turn off what the democrats are trying to do to Trump and what Trump is trying to do to the democrats.  The politics, the social, economic problems are all more or less irrelevant.  Here is an example.  Trump is a type of Cyrus and Cyrus was used to set Israel free from Babylon and rebuild the temple.  Following so far?  Here is the million dollar question:  How many Jews voted for Cyrus in order for all that to happen?  The grand total?  ZERO.  Right, first of all Jews couldn't vote for Cyrus, he was from Persia.  And, the Jews had no earthly idea what was going to happen when Cyrus first set out for Babylon-they didn't even know he was coming!  Same thing today.

The Lord told this writer not to vote for Trump or anyone else, stay away from this worlds politics.  That's what He instructed in 2016 and that's what He instructed in 2018.  And guess what?  Just like the Jews had nothing to do with their deliverance from Babylon or the temple being rebuilt (the Lord did it all!), so too Trump was elected president without this Christian's vote.  Well how would Trump get elected then?  Umm, the Lord is creative

Luke 19:39And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples. 40And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.

He wasn't kidding ^^ here.  Trump would have been elected one way or another, use your imagination for all the ways an all powerful all knowing God could make that happen.

Back on track now, we need to begin to wean ourselves from the toxic poison that is most of today's "news" and commentary.  Ok, why?  Here is the encouraging part:

Phil 2:14Do all things without murmurings and disputings: 15That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;

Obvious right?  Please think deeper about what the Lord is saying.  This world is rotten, got it.  With Trump the divider in chief and wrecking ball on the scene people (unfortunately including many Christians) dove into the deep end of the worldly cesspool along with this world.  Wrong answer.

The Lord is calling us to rid ourselves of the worldly toxicity (99% of the media) that has people the world over filled with so much contempt and hatred that they can no longer see clearly.  Here is where it gets even better.  By ridding ourselves of the worldly info poison and concentrating on things like this:

Phil 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Here is the net effect of this ^^:  While people are disowning their friends and family due to who or what they voted for, or shouting each other down with veins popping out of their necks with beet red faces, they are going to look at us full of peace, joy and love and wonder to themselves "whoa how did that happen?"  This is a dark world, if we do what the Lord tells us to do and fill ourselves up with His Word, His Spirit, pure, lovely, virtuous, praiseworthy things and things of good report we will shine like stars.  

Not only is this going to make things better for us, but some of these people, likely few but chosen people will be led by the Holy Spirit across our paths and ask "how can you live above the social, cultural, political cesspool everyone else is living in?"  "Where does your joy come from?"  Etc.  Its a win/win and the best news of all is the Lord never asked us to fix the political system in the United States or anywhere else.  Leave that work to Him.

Summary

Its time to do a news fast and detox.  That doesn't mean stick your head in a hole but we need to refocus on the end game now.  This world is going to continue to get worse.  Count on it:

2 Timothy 3:13 ¹³while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

Meanwhile we are to become radiant like stars in this present darkness.  We must burn Phil 4:8 into our minds and continue to focus on it day and night.

This brother was very encouraged to hear this repackaged "new, old news" in a way that hit home and encouraged.

Psalm 34:5 Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.

Glory to God.

Trump, The Great Divider

We have covered some of the jobs the Almighty has given Trump:

1.  Act as an illumination flare to clearly display who the actors are in this end time battle and which side they fall on.
2.  Act as a wrecking ball to retard the progress of the global communist/Satanist/globalist plan to bring in the NWO.

Today we will add #3 which is closely related to #2 above:

3.  Act as a great divider.  This globalist Babylonian world has been working overtime to create their "one world order" under the anti-Christ.  There is nothing new under the sun (Ecc 1:9).  This is what they tried to do:

Gen 11:6And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. 7Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. 8So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city. 9Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.

And this ^^ is what they are trying to do again.

What did the Lord do to Nimrod and Babel?  He introduced division to confound their plans.  This brings us to the present day.  At the time Barack Hussein's presidency was over, end time Babylon was headed toward completion.  What did the Lord do?  He introduced a great divider, Trump- to confound their plans.

What the Lord has done and is doing gives us some insight into what the Lord's plans and timeline is for this earth.  Consider that if the globalists were given a little more time in their former trajectory, Babylon would have become a reality in short order.  That didn't happen.

The other scenario has Trump and his ability to make deals.  Without opposition he could bring the world into a form of unity (look what he did with North Korea, and his willingness to even engage Iran in negotiations.)  Trump wanted to have closer relations with Russia but the Democrats with their investigations and opposition have prevented that (again, divinely introduced division preventing world unity).  Now the Democrats won back the house.  What does that accomplish?  More division.  To what end?  Prevent unity.  Is this bad?  By no means.  This division creates an extension of the timeline so only when the Lord determines to greenlight Babylon does it move forward.

As things stand we see the United States at odds with just about every other country in the world but most importantly Russia and China.  The great world powers are divided which means no new world order (at least not yet).  There are a number of different scenarios that can change this dynamic.  One is global war where America is taken out of the way.  That would pave the way for global cooperation and the NWO.  Another scenario is Trump is taken out of the picture (one way or another), paving the way for both the corrupt republican and democrat globalists to restart their creation of end time Babylon.  There are other scenarios but those are the two most obvious.

The Lord has been giving us some clues via His faithful witnesses, the sun, moon and stars

Ps 89:37 It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. Selah.

Trump was sworn in on 1/20/2017.  If Trump is re-elected the end of his presidency will take place in 2024.

The bottom line?  The Lord has created the division we see in the world with a purpose in mind.  The more divided the world is, the harder it is for the globalists to build end time Babylon.  End time Babylon is coming, but it is coming on the Lord's timeline, not man's.

This post is being written to encourage you today that the chaos and division we see is not necessarily a bad thing (short of war that is).  The division gives us time to win souls and continually perfect our walk with the Lord as we await His unexpected return.  We don't have to predict the future when the Lord has already told us what is going to happen.  What we can do is reflect on what the Lord has done and is doing to understand His thinking on world events, and we react accordingly.

We serve a very great God who is all knowing, all powerful and has a perfect plan to work out His will on this earth.  Trump and the great divide in the world are perfect examples of this.  His will be done!  Glory to God.

Another Story of the Lord At Work in the California Fires

In the midst of the judgement falling on California, here is a story of protection and preservation of those who belong to the Lord.  Video here.

Lets remember our brothers and sisters everywhere (but especially in California) that we will all be protected and provided for in this dark world.  Let us also pray that through everything that is happening the Lord and His Word will be glorified that everyone/all mankind (especially those who stand against us) will find repentance and rest in the Lord our God.

California Burns While They Simultaneously Try to Ban The Bible

Is it a coincidence that hell on earth has visited California at the exact same time they are trying to ban the Bible (and by extension our God) from their state?

God is not mocked.

Gal 6:7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters are two of the most corrupt, rotten politicians to ever walk the face of this earth and that's saying a lot.  They are both from California, the state that's burning and being shot up by mass murderers.  Again, I'm sure its all just coincidence.....

While I pray for the brothers and sisters trapped in California, the wickedness and perversion coming out of that state has to stop and will be stopped one way or another (read the book of Revelation for the details).

2024-2032

Could 2024-2032 be the rough outline of the tribulation period?  If you give or take 6 months from the ends of those dates you get the 7 years but the exact time is not the point of this post, its a rough outline.

I have seen the date 2032 come up multiple times now from various sources.  Also, 2024 and 2028 continue to pop up.  Check out this video about the grand solar minimum we are entering and the effect it is already having, and will have on the world.  Also note some of the dates given for these impacts.

Then consider the great American eclipse phases.  Phase one we already saw in August 2017, but the second phase that completes a great "X" over America takes place in 2024.

Then consider, if Trump wins a second presidential election, when does he leave office?  2024.

Mr. Armstrong over at Armstrong economics is one of, if not the best financial forecasters in the world.  He has a model called the economic confidence model that ends guess when?  2032.

No, we do not know the day or hour the Lord is going to come back but we would have to be willingly blind not to see the signs and signals the Lord is stacking up all around us to get our attention.

Another Cyrus/Trump/Babylon Connection

We have been looking at the Cyrus/Trump/Babylon connection, here is another one.

Cyrus, defeated Babylon but he did not destroy it.  What is the significance of this?  Look at the history of ancient Babylon.  What did Cyrus conquering Babylon signify?  It was the beginning of the end of that kingdom.  Look at the timeline, in 539 BCE Cyrus conquered Babylon but did not destroy it.  Then look again at the timeline, how much time did Babylon have left after Cyrus conquered it?  Its days were numbered.

This brings us to today.  Trump is the Lord's modern day Cyrus.  Cyrus did two things of note from a prophetic perspective:  1.  Conquered Babylon, and 2.  ended the 70 year captivity of the Jews sending them back to Israel to rebuild their temple.  Is Trump at war with modern day Babylon?  Only a blind man could not see it.  Has he conquered it?  Not at present, however....what Trump has set in motion will result, in time....in Babylon being destroyed.  Look at the timeline, the arrival of Cyrus (Trump) signals that Babylon's days are numbered.

The fact that the countdown to Babylon's demise has started explains the demonic, foaming at the mouth hatred we see in people all around us.  We now understand why those who we considered every day people who we might disagree with have transformed before our eyes into the children of Cain.  Their father is not happy.  The humans probably don't understand the significance of what is taking place but you can be sure our spiritual enemies understand it perfectly, thus the explosion of hatred and anger that is otherwise inexplicable.

Trump has another job to do and it does not require the support of the house of representatives or the senate.  That job is to support Israel as he has already done with the move of the embassy to Jerusalem.  Trump has another job to do directly relating to the third temple if he is the Lord's modern day Cyrus.  This much we know for sure, what the Lord has planned to do, will be done.

Is 46:10 I make known the end from the beginning, from ancient times, what is still to come. I say, 'My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please.'

So the political conspiracies, the vote theft, fraud and scheming we see taking place out in the open for all to see doesn't matter.  Its a hard pill to swallow when we see the open display of wicked corruption and the wicked seemingly get away with all of it.  That is, until you understand that the Lord works out all things for His own purposes.

Prov 24:19Do not fret because of evildoers

or be envious of the wicked,

20for the evildoer has no future hope,

and the lamp of the wicked will be snuffed out.

And speaking of the Lord working out His purposes let us conclude with this:

Romans 8:28 And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

In all things.....God works for the good of those who love Him.  That includes the wicked digging a pit for us to fall into.  What happens with the wicked and those pits?

Prov 26:26Their malice may be concealed by deception,

but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.

27Whoever digs a pit will fall into it;

if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them.

Be encouraged.  The Lord God who sees all things, who considers all things, who knows every hidden plan formed against us has a plan of His own and it will not end well for the wicked.

Isaiah 54:17 no weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me," declares the LORD.

Why The Midterms Dont Matter

So, the Democrats won the house of representatives, now what?  There is a very important piece of information we all need to acknowledge to understand everything else that's going on.

1.  The Lord God put Trump in office-against all odds, against fraud, ballot stuffing, election machine hacking and the standard theft machinery the establishment uses to ensure their candidate gets in every time-in spite of it all, Trump won.  We know he won because the Lord God decided he should win.  That brings us to #2

2.  Everything the Lord God put Trump in office to do, will be done-The Lord put Trump in office for a reason.  The Lord has a purpose and a plan for everything He does.  So too, with Trump there is a purpose and a plan that will not be stopped or thwarted by  any of the lawless, fraudulent, thieving acts of the democrat party (and the general establishment that includes the republicans).

With #2 in mind we can safely say that any gains the democrats made in the 2018 election were pyrrhic victories.  What they don't understand is they are not warring against a man (Trump).  They are at war with GOD ALMIGHTY.  They still don't get it.  They cant understand why they have unleashed every weapon of their warfare that worked so well against everyone who came before Trump, but now all those weapons have turned into wet noodles.  They are completely ineffective and many times work against them instead of Trump.  Why?  That's what happens when you play adversarial chess with an all knowing all powerful God, you lose every time.

Trump was given a Divine mandate in 2016 and until that mandate has been completely fulfilled, those who war against him will continue to get plastered (even when they think they are 'winning.')

3.  The entire world is against Trump.  They were all watching with eager expectation to see Trump get egg on the face, it didn't happen.  It is quite curious that the entire world hates Trump, did you ever stop to wonder why?  It is the divine mandate, they can all feel it, they can all sense it, and they all hate it.  It is the hand of God at work in a God hating world which has predictable results.  We see the same thing here:

Rev 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen

The entire earth will mourn the coming of the Lord ^^, why is that?  They aren't happy to see Him, why is that?  Because they opposed Him and plotted against Him every moment of every day and they lost....

We live in an anti-Christ world, that is becoming more obvious by the day.  But, be encouraged because our Lord is hard at work in this world (as the ascent of Trump has proven) and the forces of anti-Christ are going to get thrashed.  Consider the fact that at the highest high of anti-Christ's power in the tribulation this earth and its people are going to be getting hammered by the seals, trumpets and vial judgements.  There will be no party for those who oppose the Creator.  The best they can possibly hope for is to get everything they asked for (an anti-Christ world) while at the same time being devoured by that same world.

Ps 34:21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.

Here ^^ in Psalm 34 we see in one sentence what it has taken this nobody a couple pages to explain.  Their own evil will be their undoing.  All those who hate us because we belong to the Almighty will inherit desolation.  That's not my judgement, its His judgement.

Conclusion

This post was written to encourage you.  Do not fear the evil plotting and planning of the enemy against us.  Babylon is going down, this is just the start of it.

Rev 18:8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

The same God who has watched over you and provided for you up through this very day will continue to do so while at the same time He savages the enemy.

Ps 118:15 Shouts of joy and victory resound in the tents of the righteous: "The LORD's right hand has done mighty things!

Trump was called forth as today's Cyrus.  Trump was called forth because he is never stronger than when he is being attacked.  He is a born fighter, chosen by the Almighty for this very day and hour.  Much like Samson, Trump will remain untouchable until the Lord's purposes for him are brought to fruition.

Rest in the Lord and do not fear what the enemy has planned for this world.

1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.

Glory to God!

11:11

Today is 11/9, two days until 11/11.  We need to be watching for the Lord's arrival on or around this day.  Why?  We were told to always be watching for the unexpected return of the Lord.  That statement and or command in the Word covers every day.  Why 11/11?  I have been seeing 11:11 over and over and over again to the point where it is so blatant I now point at the clock and say "yes, I see it Lord but what does it mean?"

Lets see what happens on 11/11.  If the Lord comes back for us, glory to God.  If He waits, we continue to do what we have been doing.  We can do this drill as many times as we have to.  The key is patient endurance...

Heb 10:36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

This world is coming unhinged.  We can see the visceral hatred the world has toward our Lord through its hatred of Trump.  Its not so much Trump the person they hate (they used to love him) but now that Trump is being used as an instrument of the Lord's will, now they hate him.  The governments of the world hate him, the media hates him, 90%+ of large corporations hate him, more than half of the population hates him.  Its not dislike, its hatred.  This demonstrates to us what we are seeing in the world, its good versus evil.  The darkness hates the light.  Evil hates what is good.

Only the Lord's rod of iron is going to straighten out this world.

Rev 2:27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

Rev 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

Be ready to meet the Lord.  We have no idea when He will arrive so we must be ready in season and out of season.  If we even see a hint of a reason to increase our readiness to meet the Lord, we need to take that opportunity to be prepared to leave.  11/11 appears to be one such day, lets be ready to get out of here!

Trump/Cyrus/Babylon/Temple

Cyrus conquered Babylon at the exact time the Jews had completed 70 years of captivity.  One of the first thing Cyrus did was sent the Jews back to Jerusalem to rebuild their temple.

The Trump/Cyrus connection:

It just so happens that this year, 2018 is exactly 70 years since Israel was reformed as a nation.  We have Trump moving the US embassy back to Jerusalem and all of this is right on time.  The Lord is a God of perfect timing.  So far, everything that is happening in our day is an exact mirror of what happened in Cyrus' days.  If the pattern were to continue to play out exactly to pattern, what is the next event?  Rebuilding the temple.

Time is indeed short.  We have no idea when exactly the Lord Jesus is coming back for us.  He was very clear that it would be an unknown day and hour, that it would be like the days of Noah and Lot.  Everything will be business as usual then in the blink of an eye, this world will be turned upside down.  We were told to prepare to meet our Lord.  We were told to be watching, waiting and praying for His arrival.  This world will mourn when they see Him.  We will rejoice when we see Him.  Two different groups of people with two different destinies.

Be watching and ready for the unexpected arrival of our Master.  He is coming, and when He shows up most will be unprepared.  Let us be those wise virgins who are watching, prepared and ready so we can tell the Lord "we've been expecting you" when He makes His appearance.

Another Interesting Trump/Cyrus Connection

President Trump has been compared to Cyrus many times.  Here is one of the most obvious examples:

How else is President Trump linked to Cyrus?  We know that the last kingdom will be revived Babylon (not revived Rome).  How do we know that?  The Bible clearly tells us of the destruction of the last empire here:

Rev 18:1And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory. 2And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. 3For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

What we have been seeing for years with Bush, Clinton, Obama and all the other world leaders is the rise of this end time empire.  With the rise of Trump, the Lord dealt a serious albeit temporary blow to Babylon.  Here is where it gets interesting.  Guess which world leader defeated ancient Babylon?  It was Cyrus!

In October 539 BCE, the Persian king Cyrus took Babylon, the ancient capital of an empire covering modern Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Israel.
