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.
The
Seventh Trumpet: The Third Woe
(Rev.
11:14-13:18)
seventh
angel sounded...
The 7th trumpet covers a period of time (Rev. 10:7) and includes all
the 12 great events of Rev. 11:15-13:18:
1.
The announcement (Rev. 11:15)
2.
The 6 statements of the elders (Rev. 11:16-18)
3.
Opening of the heavenly temple (Rev. 11:19)
4.
Travail of sun-clothed woman (Rev. 12:1-2)
5.
The dragon’s attack on man-child (Rev. 12:3-4)
6.
Rapture of the man-child (Rev. 12:5)
7.
Flight of the woman (Rev. 12:6, 12:14)
8.
War in heaven—Satan cast out (Rev. 12:7-12)
9.
The dragon’s attack on the woman (Rev. 12:13-16)
10.
The dragon’s attack on the remnant (Rev. 12:17)
11.
Rise of beast out of the sea (Rev. 13:1-10)
12.
Rise of beast out of the earth (Rev. 13:11-18)
The
7th trumpet blows in the middle of Daniel’s 70th week, for there is
a period of 42 months (Rev. 11:2; 13:5), 1260 days (Rev. 11:3; 12:6),
or 3 1/2 years from this trumpet to the second coming (Rev. 12:14;
Dan. 7:25; 9:27; 12:7). If the 7th trumpet sounds at this point, then
the first 6 trumpets blow before this and the 7 seals are fulfilled
before the trumpet. Therefore, the 7 seals and first 6 trumpets will
be fulfilled in the first 3 1/2 years of Daniel’s 70th week (Rev.
6:1-9:21).
The
seventh trumpet sets up the 7 vial, final judgments depicted (in
chapter 16), and all the events leading up to the establishing of the
millennial kingdom (chapter 20), and the coronation of Jesus as King
(chapter 19). The seventh trumpet results in the establishment of the
millennial kingdom of Christ. The seven vials or bowls (16:1), follow
the judgment of the seventh trumpet. They will occur in a very brief
period of time at the end of the Great Tribulation the last 3 ½
years. The second coming of Christ, while a great blessing for
believers, will be God's most severe judgment of the earth for the
unbeliever. The Seventh Trumpet - Loud Voices in Heaven - The 3rd
"woe,". The blowing of the 7th trumpet is like the breaking
of the 7th seal in that it introduces the next series of divine
judgments. The 7th trumpet is not in itself a judgment but rather
shows all heaven rejoicing at the soon to be consummated victory of
Christ over the Antichrist. John records that "loud voices"
in heaven shouted, "The kingdoms of the world have become the
kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever
and ever!".
The
kingdoms of...
This announcement is made here, but the actual fulfillment will not
come until 3 1/2 years later (Rev. 19:11-21). The casting out of
Satan from heaven under the 7th trumpet makes it possible for God to
take over the governments of this world at the time He has planned to
do so—at the second coming (Rev. 19:11-21). The kingdoms of this
world will be completely overthrown by the coming kingdom of Christ
(19:11-21; Dan 2:34-35, 44), who will reign for ever and ever (Dan
7:13-14, 27). Despite its many political and cultural divisions, the
Bible views the world spiritually as one kingdom, with one ruler,
Satan (John 12:31; 14:30; 16:11; 2 Cor. 4:4). Following Satan’s
lead, the human rulers of this world are generally hostile to Christ
(Psalm 2:2; Acts 4:26). The long rebellion of the world kingdom will
end with the victorious return of the Lord Jesus Christ to defeat His
enemies and establish His messianic kingdom (Isa. 2:2-3; Dan. 2:44;
7:13-14; 18, 22, 27; Luke 1:31-33). This kingdom also belongs to God
the Father (see 1 Cor. 15:24).
This
is speaking of Jesus when he takes over on this earth and reigns with
the believers as His subordinates. You see, Jesus will return as King
of kings, and Lord of lords.
1
Thessalonians 3:13 "To the end he may stablish your hearts
unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of
our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints."
We
believers are the saints. We will rule with Jesus over those who are
not raptured before, but living through the Tribulation and go into
the Millennium. There is no end of the reign of Jesus. It is forever.
Lord,
and of...
Another clear reference to two distinct persons in the Godhead.
and
he shall...
Christ will reign forever over the kingdoms of this world after he
comes (Rev. 11:15; 22:4-5; Isa. 9:6-7; Dan. 2:44-45; 7:13-14, 7:18,
7:27; Luke 1:32-33; 2Sa. 7:1-29).
The
sounding of the seventh trumpet (Rev. 11:15-19)
Though
the full results from the sounding of the seventh… trumpet are only
introduced here and not brought to finality (as they will be in Rev.
16:1-21), the introduction of the seventh trumpet itself is dramatic.
As the trumpet sounded, voices were heard in heaven: The kingdom of
the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and
He will reign forever and ever. (Cf. predictions of the earthly
kingdom of Christ in Eze. 21:26-27; Dan. 2:35, 2:44; 4:3; 6:26; 7:14,
7:26-27; Zec. 14:9.) The fact that this will be fulfilled at the
Second Coming makes it clear that the period of the seventh trumpet
chronologically reaches to Christ’s return. Therefore the seventh
trumpet introduces and includes the seven bowl judgments of the wrath
of God revealed in Rev. 16:1-21. In contrast with previous trumpets
where a single voice was heard, here a mighty chorus from heaven
joined in the proclamation.
