On January 9th, I received another word that was to be included with my initial word from the LORD (see Great Shaking, Part One). It was as follows (and scripture references will be included in parenthesis):
[1] Prior to the AWAKENING & RECONCILIATION of Israel, SHAKING will occur in the EARTH. This will begin the CONSOLATION OF ISRAEL. (Joel 2)
-
- My focus specifically in Joel 2 is verses 28-32:
- 28“And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.
29 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
30 I will show wonders in the heavens
and on the earth,
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
31 The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.
32 And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,
as the Lord has said,
even among the survivors
whom the Lord calls.”
- 28“And afterward,
- The reference to Mount Zion and Jerusalem shows that in the last days, the focus will return to Israel. Once the church is raptured, Satan will focus his efforts on deceiving the Jews even moreso. However, the specific reference to Zion and Jerusalem implies that Israel will experience a great end-time revival and is supported by many other scriptures. Lastly, the reference to deliverance and the survivors of the tribulation period shows that there must be an awakening in the nation of Israel. There WILL be reconciliation with God for the Jews in the last days.
- My focus specifically in Joel 2 is verses 28-32:
[2] ISRAEL will AWAKEN & RISE against the Antichrist. (Micah 7)
-
- In the first 6 verses of Micah 7, it talks about how Israel is completely depraved and righteousness is pretty much nowhere to be bound. However, verse 7 is truly the turning point of the chapter: “But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.” It then goes on to talk about how Israel will rise and her enemies will be put to shame. Israel will rebel against the antichrist in the last days.
[3] The ARMIES OF HEAVEN will come after the Great Tribulation, and Satan will be bound 1,000 years. (Revelation 19:11-20 & Revelation 20:6)
-
- If you read Revelation 19:11 through Revelation 20:6, you will see that the LORD triumphs over Satan with the Armies of Heaven on the Day of the LORD. Satan will be bound for 1,000 years, during which time the Millennial Kingdom will be established. Not much I need to add.
[4] After, the HEAVENS & EARTH will be shaken ONE LAST TIME. Then, the NEW HEAVEN, NEW EARTH, & NEW JERUSALEM will be established in ETERNITY. (Hebrews 12:18-29 & Revelation 21)
-
- Although Hebrews 12 was the first scripture reference I was given, one of the last that I will address. In verses, 26 through 29, Paul writes about the future renovation of the Heavens and the Earth. This is in parallel with Revelation 21, which is one of the most beautiful visions in the entirety of the scriptures. However, what is done prior to these renovations is that wickedness must be cast out for good. The armies of the enemy are consumed by fire in their last attempt to overthrow God. Satan is then thrown into the lake of fire to join the beast and the false prophet and all of the damned for eternity. Then, and only then, will the perfection of God intended from the beginning be fulfilled.
Additionally, the LORD impressed upon my heart about 3 GREAT earthquakes that will take place in these last days. I wasn’t entirely sure if that was exactly correct according to the scriptures. However, as I looked, there are 3 GREAT earthquakes mentioned explicitly in Revelation (6:12, 11:13, and 16:18) and 2 other earthquakes in Revelation (8:5 and 11:19). Thus, it is important to note that earthquakes are a common theme of the tribulation. However, it is very possible that an earthquake might cause further shaking prior to the tribulation. I have an idea as to what that might look like, but I will discuss this in further detail in Part Three.
Right now, we are in Part One of this timeline. However, we do not know when the Rapture or Second Coming of Jesus Christ will take place. Therefore, we must always be watchful and be counted among the blessed who will escape the tribulation (the worst 7 years in human history).
In Part Three, I will discuss what some specific near term judgments might look like and what kind of shaking was, is, and is to come as the Day of the LORD approaches.
