My
Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 16:21
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
16
And
there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every
stone
about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the
plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great”
Rev.16:21
of
a talent...
Greek: talantiaios,
about 114 pounds.
every
stone about… The huge size of the hailstones indicates unparalleled
atmospheric convulsions. Such massive chunks of ice will cause
unimaginable devastation and death. It is difficult for us to
conceive of hailstones that large or the devastating effect they will
have on the people they hit.
We
can read what the Lord said in Job 38:22-23. He has filled His armory
full of hail and snow "against the time of trouble, against the
day of battle and war."Even now, these men do not repent. Instead of repenting and asking for God's help, they curse Him. You see, in all of these plagues, God wants them to repent and turn to Him.
In
addition to the earthquake, huge hailstones of about 114 pounds each
fell on people. Such huge masses of ice supernaturally formed would
destroy anything left standing from the earthquake and would no doubt
kill or seriously injure those they hit.
In
spite of the severity of the judgment and its cataclysmic character
the hardness of human hearts is revealed in the final sentence: And
they cursed God on account of the plague of hail, because the plague
was so terrible.
The
question is sometimes raised why eternal punishment is eternal. The
answer is that people in the hardness of their hearts will not
change; they deserve eternal punishment because they are eternally
unrepentant. With the final destruction coming from the seventh bowl
of the wrath of God, the stage will then be set for the dramatic and
climactic second coming of Christ, revealed in Rev. 19:1-21. Before
this event, however, a future detailed description is given of
Babylon in chapters 17-18.
