My Sheep
Hear My Voice
Before Jesus was crucified He told the
disciples to watch and pray, something so simple, but they let their
physical bodies take over and they fell back asleep. In these last
hours of time you need to hear His voice. When He tells you
something, it is very important, but most ignore my voice or just
discuss it and go on with what they were doing. You will see many
things start to happen shortly and if you do not hear and obey His
voice,... it will mean death for some of you....Jesus has only your
best interest in mind. Christ knows you heart, and if you are truly
His you will hear His voice. He awakes many of you at 3am on the
dot, but most will roll over and go back to sleep. There are a few
who will get up and pray. Your day is filled with so many things and
Jesus is the last thing many of you give your time to. But Christ
needs to talk to you,... to fellowship with you and only when you are
still and quite (3am) can you hear Him,... the rest of your day is so
busy you do not have time for Him,... but you need to make time, for
time is short and the Lord has instructions for you.
Revelation
Chapter 9
The
Fifth Trumpet: The First Woe
"And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit" (Rev. 9:1).
the fifth angel sounded... And we see heaven is sending a message to earth dwellers for the next plagues to descend.
And I (John) saw a star fall... It is clear that the angel fell from heaven right there before John in vision and that indicates that he will actually fall from heaven, in the tribulation period, the very moment the fifth trumpet sounds.
This is an intelligent person, not an actual meteor or shooting star. Personal pronouns and personal acts are ascribed to him (Rev. 9:1-2). Only an intelligent being could be given a key to a material place and a command to obey, as here. Even Satan’s angels are referred to as stars (Rev. 12:3-9). There is no indication that this is a fallen angel. He will descend from heaven to open the abyss, liberating the creatures who will fulfill this vision in Rev. 9:1-21. He must be a holy and trusted angel to have the key to the pit. If a fallen one, he could liberate all the fallen creatures that are now there.
This angel is, no doubt, the same one that binds Satan at the beginning of the Millennium in Rev. 20:1-3. Christ has the keys of the underworld, Mt. 8:29; Lk. 8:31; Rev. 1:18; 20:11-15. It seems unreasonable that Christ would trust Satan or one of the fallen angels with the key which holds captive millions of Satan's own subjects, lest he would take advantage of this trust and loose all the demons of the pit in order to swell the ranks of Satan in his last stand against God before he is bound. God could not trust a fallen being with this key, seeing that they betrayed His confidence when they fell. God always gives responsibility to those whom He can trust.
Further, this angel is not the “angel of the bottomless pit” of Rev. 9:11 for if he is a trusted angel of God, as is evident, he cannot be a king of demons. It is clear that “the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon,but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon,” is a fallen angel who is bound in the abyss with the demon locusts and who will come out of the pit with them as their leader in this terrible woe. In the description of locusts out of the pit the literal reading is, “they have over them a king, an angel of (out of) the abyss.”
This
angel out of the pit name is given Abaddon and Apollyon, which means
“destruction” and “destroyer.” These names are never used of
Satan in the Bible, hence he cannot be Satan or the Antichrist as
some teach. He be a fallen angel bound at the present time in the
abyss. He will be loosed when the angel of Rev. 9:1 comes from
heaven and opens the pit for the purpose of loosing him and his demon
locusts to torment men, as stated in this verse.
