Does the LORD hear us in our day of trouble? He sure does.
Lately, this world hasn’t had a day or two of trouble–it is a DAILY thing now, as we approach the End of Days.
I know most people do not want to hear about that, even those who profess Christ. They want to continue on with their daily lives, doing what they want, how they want, and when they want.
But we all cannot ignore the obvious for much longer–it is evident to me and many others who are “sober and watchful unto prayer”, that the time that the Lord Jesus spoke about, and the prophets warned us about-even the Apostle John in his writing of the Book of Revelation-that there would come a day when THE Day of trouble–the Day of the LORD–would happen.
It IS approaching, and I suspect those of us who are paying attention, SEE and HEAR the signs and warnings of all that is going on around us.
I can only hope that many more will wake up to the reality that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit have to FINISH what they started several millennia ago.
There was to be a generation of people who would experience such things. There was the generation in Noah’s day to experience the worldwide Flood; then the generation in Moses’ day to experience all the 10 plagues and the crossing of the Red Sea, and Moses coming down from the Mount with the 10 commandments.
There was a generation who witnessed the birth of the Messiah, and also in that generation of people, became some of His disciples and followers (and also His mother and foster father!). They saw and experience many miracles, and walked with the Image of the Invisible God for 33 years, until He was crucified for all of our sins, died, and then was resurrected, defeating Death and Hell in the process, making a way for all of us to have that opportunity to return to the Father–the LORD of Spirits.
There was a generation of believers for many centuries, starting with the first disciples, that became martyrs of the Faith, because they would not deny Christ. They longed for the Day that Christ would return and deliver them out of the evil they were witnessing more and more. But all of that was just the beginning of the walk of Faith with Christ and His Word. More was to be fulfilled, but many years hence.
NOW there is a generation, who after 2000+ years after the resurrection of Christ, that has seen MANY changes in this world, ESPECIALLY in the last 150 years or so. Rapid changes in technology, finances, society, behaviors, faith, families, etc.
Dare I say that since the 1960’s, there has been much more work in the demonic realm than anyone has seen in a long time. I do believe that we may just be that generation to see and experience much more supernatural events than we have ever bargined for.
That’s because the demons and fallen angels themselves know, that That Day is NEAR. And they are getting bolder and acting out in the physical realm more than ever before. They know their end is near, and do not care how many humans they take with them to the eternal fires. The more humans they can trick and deceive into falling away from the faith, or staying away from The Lord altogether and continue to deny Him, the more they get to spite the LORD God for casting them down and sentencing them to an eternal death. Billions already have entered into perdition…
The Day of the LORD approaches. We must be ready for it–mentally, emotionally, physically, and most of all–spiritually. One day of trouble in a person’s life is nothing these days. The world is FULL of trouble, because it has forsaken the LORD God, and He is about to remind them very SOON, Who rules and reigns in Heaven, on Earth, and below the Earth. He will finally take back ALL that is His, including His children, and Israel, which is His inheritance. Anyone who is not of the Lord’s will suffer unimaginably with the 21 Judgments that are to come.
Be watchful unto prayer, and stay sober minded, beloved. Keep your sword (Bible) with you at all times, reminding all of That Day that is approaching, and quicker than ever before.
