From Reflective Observations:
If you are here and I am gone due to a sudden disappearance of millions of people, know that you have probably missed the Rapture. You must also know that you are now living in a time period called Tribulation, where God will be sending very strong signs to “encourage” people to turn from their sinful ways (selfishness, love of money, fame, etc) and to turn to Him and repent.
Why must we turn to him when He is causing all of this chaos? Read this and you will change your mind. I hope.
God does not cause chaos. That’s simple. We once saw a comedian who was talking about how his dad toughened him up as a child. He taught him to never start a fight, but if he ever found himself in one, he had better finish it. that is the best analogy I can come with. God is finishing it. Satan started it so many years ago- (see Isaiah 14:12-14) ‘I will ascend above the heights of the clouds. I will be like the Most High’. You see Satan wanted the power for himself. He was (is) full of pride and jealousy whereas God is HOLY (Pure, worthy, sacred, free from defilement). We cannot even imagine what it is like to be Holy like God is Holy, and yet, He calls all believers to be Holy….like Him. This is the only way he can receive us into His Kingdom.
So you say His Kingdom is within us…and it is, but only to a certain degree. You must understand, God cannot tolerate ANY sin because of His COMPLETE Holiness. This is where all of the books get it wrong. You know the New Age Spiritual books, etc. the ones that say, “You are God”. No. You are NOT God. Only God is God and anyone who tries to tell you that you are equal to God is deceived and a deceiver. You cannot EVER be equal to your Creator for without Him, you would never exist. This is where so many people completely get it wrong and lose their way.
So why is all this happening? It has been happening for years, God’s warnings, and yet still, few people turned to Him. WWI gave us an idea of what it would be like to have the entire world at war. WWII took that a bit further with the undeniable hostility and oppression towards the Jews, God’s chosen people. Still, the world continued barreling down the path of self-righteousness and greed. Now, less than 100 years after the start of WWI, the world as a whole demonstrates less love and infinitely more selfishness. The amount of appreciation we give to those who sacrifice themselves, their comfort and convenience in order to serve humanity is next to nothing when compared to the amount of attention and compensation we give to those in the entertainment and pharmaceutical industries. Sports and movies have our hearts while the medications continue to keep us from actually living healthy lives. (sorry…rant) These are just examples of the deception that is leading society, all orchestrated by the Father of Lies (John 8:44)
So what has been happening since then? More signs, gradually becoming more frequent, all directed towards people to repent and lean on Him. More earthquakes, more hurricanes, more tornadoes, more destruction, more violence, more hatred, more jealousy, and above all, more blindness to it all. We complain about the current problems but we offer no solutions. Instead, we point the finger at out elected leaders, expecting them to solve all the problems while we continue to criticize all of their decisions. How foolish are we to think that any of these men can provide the saving that we all need? And yet, we have kept our backs turned away from God, the only One Who really can save us.
This is why all of this is happening. It’s a last ditch effort to wake up anyone who would fall on his/her knees and look up to the only One who has the power to save. He wants us ALL to turn to Him, but knows that only a few will (Matthew 7:13-14).
So, what you to do now that you have missed the massive exodus of Christians who have sacrificed their lives to believe and focus on Him while the world was partying and bickering?
Find a Bible and NEVER let it go. Read all of it, but especially Isaiah, Daniel, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, 1 Timothy, 1 & 2 Thessalonians, and above all Revelation. These books will outline things you may have already seen and prepare you for what to expect in the coming days and months. You MUST have an open heart to hear Him speak to you through His word (Matthew 11:15)
Do not hole up by yourself. You will need other people who recognize God’s movement and are ready to believe. You must stand together and fight against the contamination of the beast because if you do not, you will be lost forever. Once you take his mark, you are doomed with no hope for salvation. This is true and cannot be refuted. You WILL be killed if you turn to Jesus during this time. There is no way around that. Rest assured, however, because they can only kill the body and never your soul (Matthew 10:28). To be counted as a martyr for Christ is an honor (Revelation 6:9-11), so do not fear. God alone has the power to save your soul and He will protect it as fiercely as you have protected His Name.
Submit to God. Resist the Devil. (James 4:7-8) You must live this mantra on a daily basis because Satan doesn’t quit. However, it is amazing how you can feel peaceful within while there is such turmoil surrounding you. Only God can provide that peace and ONLY if you have completely submitted yourself and your loyalty too Him.
Know, that when the Temple is finally built in Jerusalem and Israel has resumed sacrifices, that the time is short. The temple must be built if the abomination of desolation is to take place (Daniel 12:11, Matthew 24:15). And the timeline is set for all of these things to happen. Repent and receive the Gift of Righteousness through Jesus Christ. God wants you to be with Him, but He cannot have ANY unrighteousness in His Presence.
This is why Jesus died. So that everyone of us could be clothed in His righteousness and enjoy eternity in the Presence of God.

I have written this with all the love in my heart. I pray for your salvation, for your safety and for your spirit to be filled with God Almighty. Then you will know the Kingdom of God is truly within you.
