“At that time Michael shall stand up, the great prince
who stands watch over the sons of your people; and there shall be a time
of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, even to that time.
Angels have hierarchy and territory. Michael, the
archangel, the mighty warrior angel over Israel, rises in battle.
We call this time of trouble, the seven-year
Tribulation.
However, it’s called Jacob’s trouble in Jeremiah
30:5-7.
No matter how many times I’ve read the following
passage in the past, I’ve never read it like this time. The Word is alive and ever
timely. Read it yourself and you'll see what I mean:
5 “For
thus says the Lord:
‘We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear,
and not of peace. 6 Ask now, and see, whether a man is
ever in labor with child? So why do I see every man with his
hands on his loins like a woman in labor, and all faces turned pale? 7 Alas!
For that day is great, so that none is like it; and it is the
time of Jacob’s trouble, but he (Israel/Jacob) shall
be saved out of it.’”
That Scripture was picked because it mentions “Jacob’s trouble” however, when read in context, considering current events, I was blown away.
Then, a few hours later, as we were eating supper and watching the news on Real America's Voice, there was a teenage boy with his hands on his loins, moaning and groaning claiming to have menstrual cramps. They call it “phantom period cramps”.
Has there ever been a time so insane when males claim
to be women, and think they have periods?
As if that’s not enough, add to the insanity worldwide unprecedented demonic hatred for Israel.
Just the other day as the Prime Minister of Israel
got up to speak at the United Nations conference, many filled with hate, got up
and walked out, while other virtue signaling cowards clapped.
When you see abominations such as these, (as predicted in Scripture) know for sure
and certain the world is teetering at the edge of the time of Jacob’s
trouble.
But God is faithful, and he (Israel) will be saved
out of it. And you will be too, if Jesus is Lord of your life, for He has
not appointed you to wrath. 1Thes. 5:9.
Now check out Daniel 12’s Scriptural
counterpart, that includes our awesome angel Michael, Revelation 12:7-9: And
war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels
fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but
they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them in heaven any
longer. 9 So the great dragon was cast
out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives
the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels
were cast out with him. 10 Then I heard a loud
voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our
God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren,
who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. 11
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their
testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. 12
Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants
of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great
wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”
Picture the scene, the Church has been called to
heaven (rapture, 1 Thes. 4:16-17), and the devil and crew have been cast to
earth.
It'll be hell on earth.
Jesus says it like this:
Matt. 24:21-22,
For then
there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the
beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And
unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s
sake those days will be shortened.
Much death. The prophet Zechariah gives a number
for how many Jews will be killed.
Zechariah 13:8-9,
And it shall come to pass in all the land,” Says the LORD, “That two-thirds
in it shall be cut off and die...
Of the 15.7 million Jews on the planet today, 10.5
million will be killed.
...But one-third shall be left in it: I will bring
the one-third through the fire, Will refine them as silver is refined, And
test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, And I will answer them.
I will say, ‘This is My people’; And each one will say, ‘The
LORD is my God.’ ”
Daniel 12:1b
And at that time your people shall be delivered,
Every one who is found written in the book.
Delivered
both physically and spiritually. Temporarily, and eternally.
Physically:
(Middle
to end of Tribulation)
Matt. 24:15,
When you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet,
standing in the holy place...flee.
Revelation 12:6, 14
prophesies that midway through the tribulation the Jews will run for
their lives to a place prepared.
The only safe place around Israel that escapes the
clutches of the antichrist is east of Israel to the rock city of Petra.
The entrance is about a mile long and just wide enough for a camel, no trucks
or tanks.
Spiritually: (Jesus
second coming)
Zech. 12:10; “And
I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the
Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom
they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns for his only son, and
grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn.
Rom. 11:25-27;
For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery,
lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in
part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has
come in. 26 And so all Israel will
be saved, as it is written:
“The Deliverer will come out
of Zion,
And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;
27 For this is My covenant with them,
When I take away their sins.”
(Isaiah
27:9, 59:20-21)
Okay, buckle up we’re about to leap 1,000 years.
2 And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall
awake,
Some to everlasting life,
Some to shame and everlasting contempt.
3 Those who are wise shall shine
Like the brightness of the firmament,
And those who turn many to righteousness
Like the stars forever and ever.
We just jumped over the Millennium and landed before
the Great White Throne Judgement.
This is the only Resurrection with the just
and unjust.
RESURRECTIONS:
(glorified bodies)
1. Jesus,
the Firstfruits. 1 Cor. 15:20.
2. Christians
at rapture 1 Cor. 15:23, 51-55, 1 Thes. 4:16-17.
3. Two
witnesses during Tribulation, Rev. 11:11.
4. Old Testament and Tribulation Saints, after Tribulation, before Millennium, Rev. 20:4-6.
5. Millennium
Saints and all wicked dead, Daniel 12:2-3, John 5:28-29, Rev. 20:11-15.
4 “But you, Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book until
the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall
increase.”
The angel told Danny to seal up the book until the
time of the end, and then, 600 years later, an angel told John the opposite:
Rev. 22:10,
And he said to me, “Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this
book, for the time is at hand.
Danny, tuck this book away in a safe place, because
it’s for the time of the end, when many will run to and fro and knowledge
will increase.
When the time comes, they’ll know what this writing
means.
At that time, Danny didn’t know.
In this time, we do.
Travel to and fro.
We rode horses for thousands of years, then just two hundred years ago, in 1825
the first railway was made, then 1896 the first car, then in 1903 Orville
Wright flew 12 seconds. Then we broke the sound barrier, flew to moon, now folks
take joy rides to outer space, and we even have plans to land on Mars.
Knowledge shall increase.
Up to 1,900 it took a century for knowledge to double, now they say it doubles twice a day. Faster than we can keep up with AI. Everybody has a computer in
their pocket. Knowledge about anything is available instantly with a few taps
of your thumbs.
Prophecy previously a mystery,
now increasingly becomes obvious, like labor pains. Rebirth of Israel, running
to and fro, knowledge increase, yet, strong delusion, deception, demonic hatred
toward Israel, Ezekiel 38-39 war shimmers on the horizon, the antichrist's ten
nation coalition is forming, the image and the mark of the beast technology is
already made.
On and on HIStory is falling into place exactly as
written in His Bible.
The closer we get to the end, the clearer
the finish line becomes
5 Then I, Daniel, looked; and there stood two others, one on
this riverbank and the other on that riverbank. 6 And one said to the man
clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, “How long shall
the fulfillment of these wonders be?”
7 Then I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the
waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand to
heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever, that it shall be for a time,
times, and half a time; and when the power of the holy people has been
completely shattered, all these things shall be finished.
8 Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, “My lord,
what shall be the end of these things?”
Sounds like the questions the disciples asked Jesus in
Matt. 24:3, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will
be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”
The angel answered, it’ll be three and a half years,
when the power of the holy people, Israel, will finally be shattered, humbled.
When you reach the end of yourself,
discipline ends, discipleship begins.
Then, the Messiah will appear! They will recognize Him whom they pierced, they will repent, receive Him and then, all Israel will be saved. Rom. 11:26, Zech. 12:10, Rev. 1:7, John 19:37.
9 And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up
and sealed till the time of the end.
John 16:12,
“I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot
bear them now.”
10 Many shall be purified, made white, and refined...
Isaiah 1:18, “Come
now, let us reason together,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like
scarlet, they will be as white as snow; though they are as red as
crimson, they will become like wool.
Throughout Revelation the Saints are pictured as
purified in robes washed white and clean.
Charlie's been
purified, white and refined.
The blood of the martyrs is the Seed of
the Church.
10...but the wicked
shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the
wise shall understand.
Rev. 22:11,
He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy
still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy,
let him be holy still.” 12 and behold I AM coming quickly...
We must invest all the time we have left, with all
that is within us, to purposefully plant toward eternity. We don't have time
to waste on futile soil; we must focus on fertile soil.
Lord, help us discern between futile and
fertile.
Be filled the Bread of Life. Then offer it to
everyone. Feed the spiritually hungry. Those who trample the Bread, don't chase
them, beg them, just pray for them and give them to the Lord.
Behold, He is coming quickly. Move on with your
mission.
The wise will understand, the wicked will not.
11 “And from the time that the daily sacrifice is taken away,
and the abomination of desolation is set up, there shall be one thousand
two hundred and ninety days. 12 Blessed is he who waits, and comes to
the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.
Jesus returns after 1,260 days so why did the angel add
30 days for 1,290 and then 45 more for 1,335?
What's that all about?
Well, there’s a lot to do after the Tribulation.
The Sheep and Goat judgement for those still alive
after the tribulation. Matt 25:31-46.
The goats get butted into hell to wait the Great
White Throne Judgement.
The antichrist and false prophet will be cast into the
lake of fire.
An angel will chain the devil and cast him in the
bottomless pit, for 1,000 years.
Then don’t forget the resurrection of the Old Testament and Tribulation saints.
Which might turn into a 45-day
meet and greet, when the OT, Tribulation and Church Saints go marching in, to the
blessed Millennial reign.
13 “But you, go your way till the end; for you shall rest, and
will arise to your inheritance at the end of the days.”
Go your way.
Proverbs 14:12, There is a way that seems right to a man but its end is the way of death.
Judges 21:25, ...everyone did what was right in their own
eyes.
Personal judgement over Divine Guidance
always leads to spiritual chaos, moral decay, division, death.
Jesus makes it abundantly clear, He is the only way. I
AM the Way, the Truth, the Life, no one comes to the Father but by Me. John
14:6.
Go your way, only if your way, is His Way.
Till the end. There
is an end. The finish line is coming quick. Even in this the answer is Jesus. I
AM the Alpha and Omega, the first and last, the beginning and end.
Rev. 22:13.
You shall rest. In
Christ is peace and rest in the midst of the storm. Come unto Me all who are
weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matt. 11:28, John 14:27).
Beware: There is no rest for the wicked. Isaiah 48:22.
Arise to your inheritance. Arise,
shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the LORD is risen upon you.
Isaiah 60:1
All will rise, “Some to everlasting life, some to
shame and everlasting contempt,” Dan. 12:2.
Heaven, streets of gold, sea of glass, tree of life.
Or,
The lake of fire, eternal pain, darkness, weeping,
wailing, gnashing of teeth, eternal torment, regret, no rest. Matthew 12:37,
Rev. 14:10-11.
The choice is clear.
Choose you this day whom you will serve,
Joshua 24:15.
Let’s pray.
Lord Jesus, thank You for leading us all
the way through this awesome book of Daniel, proving through HIStory that You declare
breaking news, before it happens. Thank You for telling us that the best of times
and the worst of times are right around the bend, not to scare us, but prepare
us, because it’s not Your will for any of us, to perish. Thank You for showing
us the Way to the Best, so we can avoid the worst. We know, You are the only
Way, the Truth, and the Life. We choose this day, and always, to follow hard after
You.
We choose to Love You, forever.
Amen.
