Scripture: Revelations 11 v 15: "And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever."
Joel 2 v 28 - 31: "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come."
When we study the Bible and Bible prophecies we must bear in mind that God wrote it through Jews. They are His chosen people to whom He gave the Law and the Covenants, and their own land of Israel, which should stretch to the Euphrates River.
He made promises to Israel and chastised them when they disobeyed Him. He forbade them to marry any other race in order to keep them pure.
The enemy has tried to destroy Israel and annihilate her. Every day, even now, she is under threat. The last battle will be Armageddon where 200 million enemy troops will gather for her final destruction.
The Church, the Body of Jesus, has by this time been raptured to be joined to Jesus, who is the Head, to begin the marriage feast. He, together with millions of His saints, will come down to meet the enemy hordes on the plains of Meggido (Armageddon) and with a sword that comes out of His mouth - that same wordsmith which He withstood Satan for 40 days in the wilderness - 166,000,000 enemies of Israel will die in one moment of time. The rest flee for their lives.
He has come to save and rescue His Bride, Israel, from Satan's destruction for the final time. It's always been about Her. He came to Jerusalem two thousand years before to set her free but, still beguiled by Satan, she had Jesus killed. In His death He had the power to save her through His own shed Blood. If Satan had known about the resurrection plan the Son of God would never have been crucified!
1 Corinthians 2 v 7 - 8: "But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory."
To help us know when certain events would indicate that the time was near, God said He would show signs in the heavens. Satan tried to hijack that plan by turning the heavens into astrological predictions through star signs. He has brainwashed people into believing in his Sun signs and such, more than in the prophecies of God.
In 2014 and 2015 there were four Blood Moons on specific Jewish feast days, which were called The Shemitah. Every one was excited about this phenomenon and thought that that was when the Rapture or the end would come. They were just a sign that its coming. ONLY the Father knows the exact time and day. Not even Jesus knows. (Link to Prophetic Fire blog 21 August 2015 "The Shemitah" bit.ly/2DY053p.)
Tonight over South Africa there is a Super Blue Blood Moon. This is triple event concerning our Moon that is quite rare. The last time it was seen in the Western Hemisphere was 1866. It was last seen over Australia in 1982.
A Super moon is when the moon is at its nearest to our planet, averaging every 440 days. A Blue moon is when a full moon occurs twice in one month, like January 2018. A Blood Moon is when there is a lunar eclipse. This is happening tonight from 7.30 pm South African time with the eclipse occurring around 5 am tomorrow morning.
Amazingly, the Jews are also celebrating a feast in honour of God's creation of Earth. So our Creator has caused all this to coincide to remind His creation, us, that everything is on track and some significant changes are coming. We don't always know what's coming but He is giving His people a boost and a hope that the end is not far off.
Our God is planning to pour out the Holy Spirit on all flesh, not just those who are born again and baptised believers. People everywhere will dream about Heaven, Jesus, eternity, life without pain, suffering, disasters, death, drugs, crime, corruption, evil or any negativity. Their memories of where they came from and who the Father is will be restored.
There have been many testimonies already of such dreams, visions, events that cannot be explained, miracles, occurring in different parts of the world. Buddhist monks, Muslims, Hindus, Cult members, tribes in the Amazon etc etcetera have had dreams and visions of Jesus speaking to them and He is so real that they leave all their knowledge behind and follow Him.
These are the seeds being sown for this final end time revival. They are randomly sown by God the Creator to remind people who they really are. Of course there are those who will never change, who will reject and pooh pooh all reality claiming superior knowledge in their proud and deceitful minds.
However, John 3 v 16 - 19 always applies: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil."
Let us be ready and filled with the power of the Holy Spirit to be the witnesses to Jesus to help, encourage, disciple, love these many newcomers to the life of Christ. Don't procrastinate or grow weary but realise this world will pass away and we will soon spend eternity in Heaven. Look around at the people you know will not make it to heaven. Do you love them? How will you feel if you never shared the love of Jesus with them and they never knew? Don't depend on them responding to dreams and visions, win them now so they can be helpers when the harvest of souls comes in.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, Your Word is so clear to those who know You, and the hour of our redemption is now close. Help us to appreciate the signs in the heavens that You have put there to encourage us. Father forgive us our laziness and for being faint-hearted. Change us into those who would do extraordinary things to win the lost into Your Kingdom. In Jesus' name. Amen.
