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 10
This
passage (Rev. 10:1-11:13) is the fourth parenthetical passage in the
book and explains certain things which are not the contents of the
trumpets or vials, but which are fulfilled in conjunction with them,
as is clear from the passage itself. Chapter 10:1-11 is a vision of
the “mighty angel,” chapter 11:1-2 a vision of the temple and the
Holy City, and 11:3-13 a vision of the two witnesses. This fourth
parenthetical passage breaks the main vision of the trumpets and is
inserted between the sixth and seventh trumpets just as the first
parenthetical passage is inserted between the sixth and the seventh
seals. This alone is proof that it is parenthetical. As to the
fulfillment of the events of this passage that is clear, chapter
10:1-11, like the first part (Rev. 7:1-8) of the first parenthetical
passage, will be fulfilled in the order in which it is given. The
last part of this parenthetical passage (Rev. 11:1-13) concerning the
two witnesses, will be fulfilled from the middle of the Week onward
like the last part of the first parenthetical passage (Rev. 7:9-17),
as is clear from both passages. Thus, the parenthetical passages are
inserted in their proper places and will be fulfilled in the order as
given, except for a few passages, which are always clear as to their
time of fulfillment. It is only natural to understand that they are
to be fulfilled in the order of events in which they are inserted
unless it is stated otherwise.
The
Angel and the Little Scroll
Rev.
7:1-17 dealt parenthetically with the 144,000 and the many martyrs,
without advancing chronologically the events of the Great
Tribulation. Similarly 10:1-11:14 give additional information as a
background to the seal, trumpet, and bowl judgments as we studied in
vs. 1.
And
he had... Another angel was introduced, apparently not one of the
seven angels sounding the trumpets. We believe from scripture this
angel is Christ, pointing to the angel mentioned in Rev. 8:3 is also
a representation of Christ as a priest. Christ appeared frequently as
the Angel of Jehovah in the Old Testament (e.g., Gen. 16:13; 24:7;
31:11, 31:13; Jdg. 6:22).
he
set his... This angel, however, was pictured
dramatically as robed in a cloud, having a rainbow above his head,
his face brilliant with glory like the sun, and with his legs… like
fiery pillars. John added that the angel held a little scroll and
stood with his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land.
on
the earth... The planting of the feet on the sea and the earth (dry
land), shows Christ's authority over the earth in its entirety, and
the appropriation of His promised inheritance as Messiah.
Jesus
is in dominion over everything. He is our source of power. Studying
the Bible is more important to our life than our daily bread. Praise
God, the Bible is of no private interpretation. God the Holy Spirit
will teach each of us what the Bible is saying to us.
