It has been said here again and again, keep our eyes on Christ. There is so much dust up in the air (the whirlwind of current events) that people lose sight of what is important. It has also been said here the orange man is not our Savior, but he has a part to play in what is coming.
Today the Spirit of the Lord impressed upon this nobody this Noah/Ark mind picture/whatever we want to call it. Its time to get into the ark is the basic idea.
Matt 24:
36“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, f but only the Father. 37As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.
This ^^^ right here was the impression that was on the servant who writes to you today. Is the Lord coming back? We don't know for sure but we should certainly be ready. Any clues as to when? This servant has seen 11:11 so many times its almost funny. But it was not when Noah entered the ark that the flood came:
6Noah was six hundred years old when the floodwaters came on the earth. 7And Noah and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives entered the ark to escape the waters of the flood. 8Pairs of clean and unclean animals, of birds and of all creatures that move along the ground, 9male and female, came to Noah and entered the ark, as God had commanded Noah. 10And after the seven days the floodwaters came on the earth.
So its a window in time we need to be watching and ready. Why else? Anything else going on? What is the first seal of Revelation 6?
1I watched as the Lamb opened the first of the seven seals. Then I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, “Come!” 2I looked, and there before me was a white horse! Its rider held a bow, and he was given a crown, and he rode out as a conqueror bent on conquest.
The first seal is a rider on a white horse (symbolizing peace). What is one of the first things the orange man promised to do? Go out and make peace in Ukraine and Israel.
So why would you vote for the orange man brother D if he is the rider on the white horse? It is a vote for God's man and God's plan. We all play our part-the orange man is playing his.
Now, just to be clear it doesn't matter right or wrong if this happens or not. What matters is we are ready whether it happens or not. The watchman's job is to call down what he sees from the wall, to warn the people-good or bad. That is what this is, a warning of a possibility. Joined at the hip with this is the Lord warned us to be watching and ready always. That means every day. If we are watching and ready every day we can't miss it. Some days are a higher watch level than others and this nobody believes we need to up our watching game over the near term future while the whole world is distracted with the political show unfolding.
We need to keep our eyes on Christ through all of this. We could be outa here very soon so we cannot afford to get caught up in the things of this world to a point where we lose sight of the real prize. While we are here we have a job to do and we intend to do it with vigor. We have to be ready to stay and ready to go at the same time. A soldier knows what this means, it is not a strange concept:
2 Tim 2
3Join with me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. 5Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules
Ready to stay and ready to go-that's our rule. The rules of a good soldier. Is it easy? No but nobody promised us it would be.
EZ 33
1The word of the Lord came to me: 2“Son of man, speak to your people and say to them: ‘When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman, 3and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people, 4then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not heed the warning and the sword comes and takes their life, their blood will be on their own head. 5Since they heard the sound of the trumpet but did not heed the warning, their blood will be on their own head. If they had heeded the warning, they would have saved themselves. 6But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes someone’s life, that person’s life will be taken because of their sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for their blood.’
This watchman has now warned the people per ^^^.
Glory to God
grace and peace
