Two Great Days - By Daymond Duck - https://www.raptureready.com/2023/02/25/two-great-days-by-daymond-duck/
 
A reader recently sent this Billy Graham quote to me as he spoke in a crusade. He said, “The first thought I have when I wake up in the morning is I wonder if He is going to come today. I would like to see Him come; what a day that’s going to be. All of our aches and pains are going to be behind us, all of our tears are going to be behind us, all of our problems are going to be solved. What a day that’s going to be!”
 
Actually, many Christians believe two great days are coming.
 
When the day of the Rapture arrives:
 
  • Every deceased Christian will be raised from the dead with an incorruptible, immortal body like Jesus had when He was raised from the dead.
  • The body of every living Christian will be changed into an incorruptible, immortal body like Jesus had when He was raised from the dead.
  • Christians will see their saved loved ones in heaven.
  • Christians will be taken to heaven for rewards.
  • Christians will be presented to Jesus for the marriage of the Lamb.
  • The Christian’s prayer to be accounted worthy to escape the Tribulation Period will be answered.
  • The salvation of multitudes by the preaching of the 144,000 and Two Witnesses will be near.
  • The blinding of Israel will soon cease, and all Israel will soon be saved.
 
When the day of the Second Coming arrives:
 
  • Satan will be bound, chained, and cast into the Bottomless Pit for 1,000 years.
  • The Antichrist and False Prophet will be cast into the Lake of Fire.
  • The Restoration of planet Earth will begin.
  • Jesus will reign and be worshipped all over this earth.
  • There will be peace, justice, and righteousness on earth.
  • God’s covenants with Israel will be fulfilled.
  • Christians will reign with Jesus.
  • Christians should look forward to these two magnificent events taking place.
 
Here are some signs that we are getting close:
 
One, concerning world government: at the World Government Summit in Dubai (held Feb. 13-15, 2023), Klaus Schwab talked about Artificial Intelligence, Chatbots, and other advancements in technology.
 
Schwab said, “Who masters those technologies – in some way – will be the master of the world. Ten years from now, we will be completely different.”
 
(Note: An evil world government is coming that God will allow to exist for seven years, but the ultimate Master of the world is Jesus.)
 
Two, concerning world government: Elon Musk (he is not a Christian) recently said,
 
  • The World Economic Forum’s (WEF’s) Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) agenda is Satanic.
  • The WEF is increasingly becoming an unelected world government that the people never asked for and don’t want.
 
In a video speech to the recent World Government Summit in Dubai, UAE (held Feb. 13-15, 2023), Musk said,
 
  • I know that this is called the World Government Summit, but I think we should be maybe a little bit concerned about actually becoming too much of a single world government. If I may say that, we want to avoid creating civilizational risk by having, frankly – this may sound a little odd – too much cooperation between governments.
  • We want to have some amount of civilizational diversity such that, if something just goes wrong with some part of civilization, the whole thing doesn’t collapse, and you know, humanity keeps moving forward.
  • A civilization collapse could lead to greater disaster than if nations were more independent.
 
As I understand it, Musk was saying a world government that has too much central control will collapse, and that could be worse than nations retaining their national sovereignty.
 
Three, on Feb. 17, 2023, The Gateway Pundit published a great article by author and TV personality Wayne Allyn Root that says, “The consequences of a stolen election (the 2020 presidential election) are all around us.”
 
I believe Root’s Gateway Pundit article is extremely important, and every U.S. citizen needs to know what it says.
 
Root was talking about inflation and famine when he said:
 
  • Grocery prices are skyrocketing.
  • Egg farms are burning to the ground.
  • Over 100 food plants have burned to the ground in the past year.
  • A mushroom cloud of deadly chemicals is floating over the farm belt, animals are dying, fish are dead, and people are sick.
  • Gas and energy prices are soaring.
  • Massive inflation is decimating the middle class.
 
Root was talking about the decline of the U.S. when he said:
 
  • The supply chain is crippled.
  • Highways, ports, and infrastructure are crumbling.
  • Trains are derailing.
  • Our federal energy reserve is being depleted.
  • Biden left $85 billion of our weapons in Afghanistan, he is shipping a lot of what is left to Ukraine, and America’s military is short on equipment.
  • America’s national debt and homelessness are exploding.
  • Not even one black child in 50 Chicago schools can do grade-level math.
 
Root was talking about surrendering the sovereignty of the U.S. and a population reduction when he said:
 
  • Our border is wide open, and criminals, terrorists, and drugs are pouring through.
  • Fentanyl kills over 100,000 Americans per year, and it sure seems like someone wants them dead.
  • Covid vaccinations are killing children and young athletes.
 
Root was talking about wickedness when he said:
 
  • Violent crime and retail theft are exploding.
 
Root was talking about tracking people when he said:
 
  • Our government is compiling a list of the unvaccinated.
 
Root was talking about corruption in Washington when he said:
 
  • The FBI and DOJ are prosecuting parents that protest the LGBTQ agenda, censoring conservatives and Christians, but releasing violent criminals.
 
Root was talking about the moral decline of America when he said:
 
  • Government, media, Hollywood, and schools are brainwashing society 24/7 with the LGBTQ and transgender ideology.
 
Root concluded that all this has to be the purposeful destruction of America, and he closed by saying, “A stolen election has unleashed the gates of Hell on America.”

(My opinion: This is just part of why I believe history is approaching the two great days mentioned above.)
 
Four, concerning the coming world religion: on Feb. 17, 2023, LifeSiteNews posted another great article by Catholic Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano.
 
As I understand it, Vigano believes (and I agree) that:
 
>Satan is behind the globalist hostility to Biblical morals and the spread of the gospel of Christ.
 
>The green agenda, woke dogmas, and cancel culture are part of a globalist cult religion that is being promoted by the New World Order.
 
>Globalists are using the World Health Organization (WHO), World Economic Forum (WEF), and other groups to draft laws that require everyone on earth to accept their morality (adherence to these global laws will not be optional).
 
>Globalists are using these groups to draft laws to control what churches teach, what schools teach, what the media says, and to silence anyone and everyone who does not agree with them (freedom of religion and speech will not be allowed).
 
>Globalists are using these groups to promote immorality (abortion, gay rights, gender mutilations, etc.), euthanasia, depopulation, etc., as meritorious, the common good, and the ethically right thing to believe and do to save the planet (and what the Bible says does not matter).
 
>Globalists are drafting laws and policies that no one wants and no one asked for in the name of an unproven and unprovable crisis (climate change) that will make everyone’s life worse (eat worms, walk to work, use less energy, etc.).
 
>The globalist religion is exclusive, and those that disagree with it must be dealt with (considered enemies of the common good, be re-educated by force, be forced to submit, etc.).
 
>The list of people promoting this satanic global cult religion includes politicians, heads of companies and universities, actors, preachers, the Catholic hierarchy, and even Pope Francis.
 
Here is a link to the article:
 
https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/abp-vigano-the-globalist-new-world-order-has-the-marks-of-the-antichurch-of-satan/?utm_source=daily-usa-2023-02-18&utm_medium=email
 
(My opinion: A global cult religion is a major sign that the above-mentioned two great days are approaching.)
 
(More: The fact that a highly respected conservative Roman Catholic Archbishop believes Pope Francis supports a satanic global cult religion that is hostile to Biblical morals and the spread of the gospel should not be taken lightly by Roman Catholics. Everyone, regardless of their faith, that opposes the agenda of the Antichrist during the Tribulation Period will be persecuted and probably killed.)
 
Five, concerning world government, I have recently reported that:
 
>There were two globalist meetings in Jan. 2023 (The WHO International Health Regulations Review Committee, IHRRC, and the WEF Annual Meeting) that submitted proposals to be voted on at the upcoming WHO Assembly Meeting in May.
 
>Francis Boyle, Prof. of Law at the Univ. of IL, studied those proposals and said they will set up a worldwide totalitarian medical and scientific police state and that every nation on earth could lose its national sovereignty if those proposals are approved.
 
>One very dangerous aspect of those proposals is that the International Health Regulations (IHRs) will be changed from “non-binding” to “legally binding,” and WHO Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus will be empowered to declare a Public Health Emergency of International Concern, whether there is a real one or not, just by saying that the “potential” for one exists.
 
>If the IHRs become “legally binding” global laws in May, the only thing that is needed for one man to take over the medical and scientific sovereignty of every nation on earth is for Ghebreyesus to declare that the potential exists for the bird flu (monkeypox or whatever) to become a global pandemic.
 
>On Feb. 10, 2023, it was reported that the WHO’s proposed International Pandemic Treaty calls for: 1) A “One Health” global surveillance system to monitor and control diseases; 2) The 194 nations that belong to the WHO to be required to recognize the WHO’s authority over global health issues, and 3) The WHO to be allowed to impose its requirements upon all member nations.
 
>On Feb. 10, 2023, it was reported that a World Health Organization (WHO) official called for: 1) A strengthened WHO global surveillance system; 2) Standardized global medical care; 3) Everyone on earth that is 60 years old or older with an immunocompromised system (weakened immune system) to receive booster shots; 4) To require everyone that is at risk (everyone with underlying conditions, healthcare workers, etc.) to be vaccinated, and 5) To put patients that are hospitalized with Covid-19 on ventilators (which often terminates their life).
 
I am reminding readers of these previous reports because, on Feb. 18, 2023, The Epoch Times reported that the Biden administration is planning to sign a legally binding document (on Feb. 27, 2023, as I understood it) that commits the U.S. to obey these global policies.
 
On Feb. 19, 2023, The Gateway Pundit reported that “The amendments delegate the international body of unelected bureaucrats more authority to define what constitutes a pandemic, when a pandemic is in progress, how long a pandemic lasts and how ‘to prevent, detect and respond to future public health emergencies of international concern,’ ultimately delegating the WHO total authority over emergency operations in the U.S. during a ‘public health emergency.’”
 
(My opinion: I believe this will be a major step toward Regionalization and the rise of the Ten Kings; Regional Directors, Regional Czars, leaders over 10 regions in the world.)
 
Six, concerning an increase in the frequency and intensity of natural disasters at the end of the age: on Feb. 20, 2023, a 6.3 earthquake struck Turkey.
 
This earthquake struck exactly two weeks after the Feb. 6, 2023, quakes that killed almost 50,000 people in Turkey and Syria combined.
 
More buildings were damaged or destroyed, but injuries and death were light (initial reports said 6 deaths and more than 300 injured) because more than one million people are now in temporary structures (tents, etc.).
 
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
 
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Prophecy Line: The Trigger – Terry James - https://terryjamesprophecyline.com/2023/02/26/the-trigger/
 
Many of you know I view Jesus’ words as recorded in Luke to be perhaps the most important of all prophetic teachings regarding the coming world collapse into what will quickly become the Tribulation—Daniel’s seventieth week.
 
Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed. (Luke 17:28–30)
 
As stated in these articles many times, I believe the Lord was speaking to our time. Even more specifically, I believe He might have had our very nation in mind when issuing this foretelling. Further, I believe Jesus was indicating that it will be God Himself, not man, that will bring the more or less normal way of doing business crashing down into chaos.
 
His “revealing” will trigger this collapse, I’m convinced.
 
Again, the Lord could not be talking here about the end of the Tribulation, as He is preparing to come back to put an end to the wickedness of mankind and their governments of destructiveness. There will be a scant few people on earth at that time due to the Judgment, wrath of God, and of Antichrist’s reign that will destroy many. The people who are alive will be hiding in caves begging the rocks to fall on them and hide them from the face of the returning Christ. It will not be business as usual, as indicated in the Luke 17:28–30 account.
 
Jesus is speaking here to the Rapture of the Church, in my view. Like in Lot’s being taken from the doomed city of Sodom, Christians being swept into the clouds from the doomed planet will be kept from that coming hour of horror (as promised in Revelation 3:10).
 
It will be this event—the Rapture of the Church—that will trigger the collapse of everything on earth. It will be a trigger pulled by the God of Heaven, who will finally have had enough of man’s wickedness.
 
Pete Garcia and I have written a book that talks about the disastrous chaos that will result when God’s righteous anger is released once His family is removed in the Rapture. The book’s title is New World Order: Worlds in Collision and the Rebirth of Liberty.
 
We have addressed many times in these commentaries—and Pete has done the same in his great website, Rev310.net—the globalist elite making plans to bring into place their desired changed global order. It will be the Antichrist regime outlined in Revelation chapter 13.
 
In our new book, we do our best to describe in detail how this will all be triggered into taking place as prophesied once the Church is removed in the Rapture. The following is a brief excerpt from the book that gives some idea of what is coming, we believe, in the near future. There will be great societal collapse at every level, and Antichrist will implement controls draconian even beyond those conjured in George Orwell’s imagination.
 
This Luciferian new order will have one more ace up its sleeve in uniting all the worlds’ remaining religions—artificial intelligence.
 
“What you try to do a thousand years ago with the priest preaching from the pulpit you will be able to do in a far more invasive way in 10 or 15 years with all kinds of brain-computer interfaces and direct biological interventions (Yuval Noah Harari, Homo Deus).
 
As has been noted by numerous biblical scholars and teachers, the coming Antichrist’s Beast kingdom will have three legs to its political structure—economic, military, and religious. However, we believe this coming system will have a fourth leg that seemingly enables (or supercharges) the other three—the supernatural.
 
According to Scripture, the Beast will begin as a ten-nation/region imperial power that rises up at a time of great global crisis, and then imposes its political will over the entire earth… It’s not a stretch to see how this political power will then extend into its economic authority, to control all buying and selling everywhere. Militarily, the Beast will incorporate the latest and greatest technology information, surveillance, and deterrence weapons to enforce its iron-fisted political control over both people and economies.
 
Paradox Gained
 
Even though the public opinion or awareness of global governance has waxed and waned over the past hundred years, the plan has never wavered from the globalist mind. The continual push towards a singular, global government has wrought havoc everywhere it’s been implemented, and thus, as stated at the outset, their goal has been successful. The success is not in achieving global government, but in achieving geopolitical and societal destabilization necessary for the peoples of the earth to cry out for one. Thus, their relentless chipping away at the US Constitution has put us dangerously close to the tipping point. As of 2022, it wouldn’t take much for us to collapse nationally; a simple nudge would move us into any number of existential crises.
 
The COVID-19 crisis, and the political, economic, and social disruptions it has caused, is fundamentally changing the traditional context for decision-making. The inconsistencies, inadequacies, and contradictions of multiple systems—from health and finance to energy and education—are more exposed than ever amidst a global context of concern for lives, livelihoods, and the planet. Leaders find themselves at a historic crossroads, managing short-term pressures against medium to long-term uncertainties with one-size-fits-all solutions. (The New World Order: Worlds in Collision and the Rebirth of Liberty, by Terry James and Pete Garcia, set to release spring of 2023.)
 
Try as they have been striving to do, the diabolist New World Order minions haven’t been able to bring down the United States of America. And they must have America’s great assets and Americans’ compliance in order to achieve their one-world regime. We believe it is the restraining hand of God that has to this point prevented America’s utter collapse. If America falls, the rest of the world will follow into complete collapse, and there will be a worldwide call for a leader to bring things back to a degree of normalcy. Antichrist will be ready with answers to restore order. But it will be a hellish order full of enslavement, death, and destruction.
 
The Rapture is the trigger that will initiate the move toward man’s final war at Armageddon.
 
You don’t want to be on planet earth when God has pulled that trigger and removed His people to safety.
 
Here, again, is how to go to Christ when He calls the Church to Himself.
 
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (Romans 10:9–10)

Living As Normal In The Shadow Of Impending Catastrophe – By Hal Lindsey – https://harbingersdaily.com/living-as-normal-in-the-shadow-of-impending-catastrophe/
 
Much of the world lives in a split reality — divided between normalcy and despair. Most adults understand that at any given time, there are any number of possible calamities bearing down on the earth. Nuclear threats from Russia and/or China could mean disaster tomorrow. Economic meltdown could be only days away. A new plague could hit with more speed and greater impact than the last one.
 
But such fears do not change the routine patterns of daily life. Most folks will get up tomorrow morning, go to work or school, return home at the appointed time, and generally go about their daily routines. Young people (and some older ones) will fall in love and get married. People will spend a surprisingly large part of their day on food — working to pay for it, going out to shop for it, then purchasing it, preparing it for consumption, eating it, and finally cleaning up the mess. Who has time to worry about calamities?
 
In Matthew 24:37-38, Jesus said, “The coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, they were marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark.”
 
This scripture means that the basic pursuits of humanity will continue, even as people adjust to new and growing problems. It does not mean that everything will stay the same. Earlier in the same chapter, Jesus talked about the days leading up to His return as a time of extraordinary earthquakes, famines, and wars. He warned of lawlessness, false prophets, and persecution. Those dangers will grow, and they will be everywhere.
 
It will become almost unbearable during the tribulation. Thankfully, those who are in Christ today will be gone by that time. But we are already experiencing the beginnings of those things that will manifest themselves so severely later on. As a result, people are experiencing a tremendous increase in stress, discouragement, loneliness, and fear.
 
We live in a time when everyday life falls deeper into the shadow of impending doom.
 
The answer can be found in God and His word. The answer is Jesus. We need to say that out loud, and to say it often. Sometimes Christians despair of saying it because they know that an entire generation has been trained to disregard everything they hear about Jesus or the Bible. Like Pavlov’s dogs, they are trained for a specific response to certain stimuli. They are trained to disregard the Savior of the world, and to disdain those who mention Him.
 
But we must keep speaking the truth. Romans 3:3 tells us that “unbelief will not nullify the faithfulness of God.” In Isaiah 55:11, God said, “My word… shall not return to Me empty, without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.”
 
Keep telling others. Be neither bashful nor belligerent. Speak in love, but speak. The people around you are hungry, and you carry with you the Bread of Life. Show them Who that is. Galatians 6:9 says, “Let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

 


 
What Happened to My Church? – By Jan Markell - https://harbingersdaily.com/what-happened-to-my-church/
 
Church issues are the most frequent inquiry I get here at Olive Tree Ministries. Other leaders tell me the same. What has happened in the last 30-40 years? Many people visit church after church only to walk away disheartened. Others are lifetime members of a church and have seen changes that left it unrecognizable — spiritually speaking.
 
At first, members and attendees wonder if they are being a bit too judgmental, but the sad reality eventually sinks in that something has gone terribly wrong.
 
My background is in a fundamental church in Minneapolis that delivered verse-by-verse messages and had frequent prophecy conferences. Try to find that today! You will find a few but they are few and far between. This same church warned me about a coming apostasy back in the 1970s, but who knew it would get so bad starting somewhere in the 1990s. Nothing could have prepared me.
 
First it was music that became the great divider. Nobody minds some guitars and a bass but into the second decade of the 21st Century, ear plugs are handed out as one enters the church sanctuary.
 
Some churches open with a secular song, dim the lights, add some smoky fog, and have an atmosphere similar to the local bar. All of this is to enhance choruses that will be sung two-dozen times by hypnotized church members. I would learn that it is to attract “seekers” — a 21st Century term. Bill Hybels admitted that he came up with the term but confessed it didn’t work well in his church!  
 
Organs and pianos were tossed out 25 years ago because they did not promote “church growth.” The over-age 55 crowd was on their own. Some churches threw them a bone with an 8 a.m. service for those with gray heads. That trend began “the great divide” between generations. 
 
Someone made a conscious decision that we should have a “new way of doing church”, although many members and attendees agreed there was nothing wrong with old ways of doing church. Terms began being used like “purpose-driven,” “seeker-sensitive,” “church-growth movement,” “postmodernism”, “Emergent”, and more. 
 
People started to hear about love, unity and tolerance. We must be known for what we agree on, not what we disagree on. Everything and everyone must be accepted. Aberrations must be accepted. Sin must be accepted. People loved having their ears tickled. They would be encouraged to “feel good” and have their self-esteem built up. Sound doctrine was being set aside.
 
The saving of souls was being set aside for the entertainment factor and social justice causes. It seemed that many in the church no longer cared that so many were on their way to hell! What an offensive, intolerant thought. But clearly sound doctrine will separate and divide so we must tread lightly in that area.
 
Relevant issues have vanished. Pulpits have become afraid to talk about voting biblical values. Pastors quit speaking in favor of marriage and against abortion. It seemed like an “eleventh commandment” came into the church: Thou shalt not offend. Taking a stand was clearly over.
 
When it came to issues like Bible prophecy, the silence became deafening! People were told this was “divisive” although rock music in the church apparently was not! Millions are going to be left behind at the Rapture of the Church but there are no warnings about this going out from hardly any church. Instead, pulpits are dispensing Osteen-type messages that talk about “your best life now” on this broken, corrupt planet.
 
This is just a short explanation as to why e-mails and letters pour into this ministry and others asking about how they might find a healthy, relevant church in their neighborhood.
 
In 2017 my friend Terry James invited me to submit a chapter in his proposed book titled “Deceivers: Exposing Evil Seducers & Their Last Days Deception.” I had been doing Christian radio across the country for many years and as I researched programs, I was reminded daily that there had been a straying from sound doctrine. 
 
I was confronted with the fact that I had two choices: I could overlook this trend or expose it. I took the warning to watchmen in Ezekiel 33 very seriously and I determined to confront the false teaching head-on and tell the truth about it. I did not want the blood on my hands! I knew this would cost me listeners and friends. I would soon find out that certain radio stations would marginalize me and even ban me for the naming of names.
 
Was this too high of a price to pay? I had to seriously ponder that and count the cost. Could I stick with my plan? It’s a big, lonely world. We need all the support we can get. My plan would not win friends — but it might save some people from making lifelong theological mistakes by revealing who and what could be trusted and not trusted.
 
I began my research by tracing the history of false doctrine and reckless church movements going back to the early 1900s to the present. From mystical madness such as so-called Christian Yoga to the experiential of the New Apostolic Reformation, wolves were prowling around the flock. 
 
At the same time I saw that discernment was going over a cliff as books like “The Shack” and “Jesus Calling” were embraced as much as the Bible.
 
An entire movement sprang up around Todd Bentley who kicked sick people with his biker boot to heal them and this was celebrated.
 
Evangelical organizations like the NAE embraced global warming and called for America to destroy all her nukes. What does this have to do with the gospel?
 
Ecumenism soared and Protestants began embracing Catholicism. Kenneth Copeland announced that the Reformation was over.
 
I observed something called the “laughing revival” and I concluded that it wasn’t so funny.
 
I could go on and on. You can see that the odds of you having a healthy, well-balanced church are slim but they are out there! If you have one, thank God for it daily. If you don’t, know that you are not alone. Millions visit nearly every potential church in town and walk away perplexed and heart broken. Are they looking for perfection? A few may be but most are not.
 
They just know today’s church would most likely not be recognized by their parents or grandparents. Jesus said the gates of hell would not prevail against the church (Matt. 16:18). Having said that, the gates of hell are trying like crazy to penetrate the church, change it, change its message, change its purpose, distort the gospel, and wear down the saints — pastors included. 
 
In summary, GotQuestions.org says, “….the church is not a building or a denomination. According to the Bible, the church is the body of Christ — all those who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ for salvation (John 3:16; 1 Corinthians 12:13). Local churches are gatherings of people who claim the name of Christ.
 
Members of a local church may or may not be members of the universal church, depending on the genuineness of their faith. The local church is where believers can fully apply the ‘body’ principles of 1 Corinthians chapter 12: encouraging, teaching, and building one another up in the knowledge and grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.”
 
Christ died for the Church and we cannot give up on it! A heavenly endless church service awaits us in Eternity with a celestial choir and orchestra. The preaching will also be out of this world! We’ll all be one denomination. The bickering will be over with. We won’t insist on our own way. We’ll finally be in one accord.

 


 
Daily Jot: Press In - Bill Wilson – www.dailyjot.com
 
There are many events taking place around us that would be frightening in of themselves—the devastating hurricanes and earthquakes; the threat of terrorism; political disruption; the threat of nuclear war with Islam—just to name a few. Some of this uncertainty has prompted many to ask the age old question, “Does God have a plan for my life?” The answer is yes, yes He does. You should be encouraged because you are born a unique individual who is loved by the Creator of the universe, and He wants to see you experience joy, happiness, love and success. But often the toils of this world bring us down and get in the way.
 
For example, throughout my life, I have had ups and downs that caused me to question God’s plan for my life. But it was really me that was the question. God knows how you were made as confirmed by Psalm 139:14, “I will praise thee for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knows right well.” Jesus said in Matthew 10:30, “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” And God knows what is best for you and He has in mind the very best for you. Through the Apostle Paul, God tells us in Romans 12:2, “be not conformed to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
 
See, even when we allow our own selves to get in the way of God’s plan, it is still there for us. And we can fall into the deepest valley, the darkest time of our life, and God will be there for us. He said in Isaiah 46:4, “And even to your old age I am He; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you; I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry and deliver you.” So no matter how low you are or how much the world is closing in on you, the Lord God, your Salvation, is with you. And His plan for you is perfect. So you do have a destiny. You were created to glorify God. That is your purpose. How you accomplish that is your calling.
 
I knew that God had called me to evangelize when I was 16. I refused the calling and pursued my own earthly goals. And the Lord brought me to a point, after much life experience, that I could no longer ignore His calling. But then I heard nothing from Him. I had to seek Him, pour out my heart to Him in fasting and prayer. And even that did not work until after 54 days when I finally had my answer to discern the times and events and call people to the Lord. I guess my point is that we often do wonder what God has in mind for us, but in order to find out, we must seek God with all our heart, mind and soul, even sometimes to the point of travail, so He knows we are serious. So don’t give up, press in. Press in hard. For your destiny is at hand.

 


 
Daily Devotion: Don’t Ignore Open Doors - by Greg Laurie – www.harvest.org
 
I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name —Revelation 3:8
 
https://harvest.org/resources/devotion/dont-ignore-open-doors/ - Listen
 
In the Bible, a door is a symbol of opportunity and a key is a symbol of authority. The apostle Paul referred to this in 2 Corinthians 2: “When I came to the city of Troas to preach the Good News of Christ, the Lord opened a door of opportunity for me” (verse 12 NLT).
 
God opens doors. For example, maybe you’re having a conversation with someone, and suddenly they bring up something that is an open door to share the gospel. You want to be sure to go through that door.
 
Jesus has the key, and He opens the doors.
 
I’m glad that He has the keys, by the way. If I had the keys, they would be lost by now. But Jesus doesn’t lose the keys. He wants to open doors. God opened a door for Pastor Chuck Smith, who was at the epicenter of the Jesus Revolution, and he walked through it.
 
There are some things that only God can do, and there are some things that only we can do. God will open a door, but we must walk through it. In the church, we want our doors open. We don’t want to put up a wall where God has put a bridge. We want to be stepping stones, not stumbling blocks, to people coming to Christ. It should never be difficult for people to come to Him.
 
Someone might show up at church who lives a certain lifestyle or dresses in a way that makes some Christians uncomfortable. But they need to hear the gospel. And our job is to call them to Christ.
 
We don’t say, “Clean up your life and come to Christ.” Rather, we say, “Come to Christ, and He will clean up your life.”
 
The church should be a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.

One of the most reliable ways to determine if a ministry is worthy of your financial support is to examine its fruits. If Prophecy Update is keeping you informed, and if that information inspires you, and causes you to draw closer to the Lord, if Prophecy Update equips you with valuable information and knowledge to share with and encourage other believers, and open the eyes of non-believers, and if Prophecy Update keeps you connected to current events relating to Bible Prophecy, then you are partaking of the fruit produced through this ministry.

"Folks, it's all beginning to unravel. America is in more danger of falling than at any time in its history. But I believe Bible prophecy predicts this very decline. From this point on, we believers have to get serious. We are going to face discouragement, disillusionment and, most certainly, persecution in the time between now and the Rapture. But don't be discouraged or disillusioned. The coming turmoil will provide us unrivaled opportunities to share the good news of the Gospel. So be ready to share your faith and your hope with those who need Christ. We still have time to reap a great harvest of souls for God's kingdom!" - Hal Lindsey
