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)
Their
song of praise indicates that the time had come for God to judge the
nations, to judge the dead, and to reward God’s servants.
nations
were angry... No longer terrified (compare 6:15-17), they will be
filled with defiant rage. Their hostility will shortly manifest
itself in a foolish attempt to fight against Christ, a doomed, futile
effort that is the apex of human rebellion against God (16:14);
19:17-21).
and
thy wrath... Almighty God answers the feeble, impotent fury of the
nations (compare Psalm 2:1-9). The 24 elders speak of God’s future
wrath (20:11-15), as if it were already present, signifying its
certainty. That God will one day pour out His wrath on rebellious men
is a major theme in Scripture (compare Isa. 24:17-23; 26:20-21:
30:27-33: Ezek. 38:16ff; 2 Thess. 1:5-10).
The
nations, (worldly people), had a hay-day persecuting the believers.
They were angry and very unfavorable to those with faith. Now the
tables are turned. These very ones, whom they persecuted, will rule
over them. Here we see punishment for those who did not accept the
gift of salvation and great rewards given to those who did accept and
live for Jesus. These, who will be destroyed, are actually the cause
of the earth being destroyed. The wrath of God not only destroyed
them, but damaged the earth as well.
time
of the… The final outpouring of God’s wrath includes judging the
dead (compare Matt. 25:31-46; John 5:25-29). The judgment has two
parts:
(1)
God rewards Old Testament saints (Dan. 12:1-3; compare 22:12; 1 Cor.
3:8; 4:5), the raptured church (1 Cor. 15:51-52; 1 Thess. 4:13-18),
and Tribulation saints (20:4); and
(2)
God condemns unbelievers to the lake of fire forever (20:15).
These,
who will be destroyed, are actually the cause of the earth being
destroyed. The wrath of God not only destroyed them, but damaged the
earth as well.
