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 8
The
First Trumpet: Hail, Fire, and Blood
first angel sounded... The “first” trumpet brings literal fire and hail, and causes the destruction of most of the vegetation on the earth not just a specific village or city like Sodom and Gomorrah. Famine and a lack of oxygen production will result, this is similar to the seventh plague upon Egypt, and will be just as literal, Ex. 9:22-26. The only difference here is the addition of blood and the exception of animate life.
followed hail and fire... Could not hail and fire, mingled with blood, be cast out to the earth and burn up a third of the trees and all green grass? If this is what John saw happen, who are we to say he did not see this, or that he saw something else? This happened in Egypt (Exo. 9:22-26). Is it impossible to happen again?
Mingled with blood...To make matters even worse, John also adds that "blood" arrives with the hail and fire, as the prophet Joel had predicted.
Joel 2:30 "And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood and fire and pillars of smoke". And this is only the first trumpet!
the third part... This plague will only affect vegetation on one-third of the earth, while in Egypt it affected vegetation, men, and beasts. The trees are literal here as in Rev. 7:1, 3; 9:4, and will be burned up as in Rev. 17:16; 18:8. During this plague agricultural progress will be impossible.
The first trumpet is released and and the angel told to do these things. Some religions will tell you that God never punishes, but this is not true. This is punishment from God. The devil is not doing this. It is done on orders from God. Another place where this strange phenomenon of fire and hail mixed together falling is in Exodus.
Exodus 9:24 "So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, very grievous, such as there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation."
Both were punishments from God. The difference is that this one in Exodus was localized. The one in Revelation is wide spread. One thing very important to remember is that the wrath of God falls on them of unbelief and those nations that have defiled Israel and His people.
Ezekiel 38:22 "And I will plead against him with pestilence and with blood; and I will rain upon him, and upon his bands, and upon the many people that [are] with him, an overflowing rain, and great hailstones, fire, and brimstone."
It is the same God in Ezekiel that we see in Revelation.
We
see in all of this, and the next few trumpets probably, the revealing
of God's judgment which may be of nature in the form of catastrophic
forms of nature.
