A Warning to the Church - Wake Up Church
Prophetic Warning Comes Before Destruction
The pandemic is a warning to the church. It is a time of great shaking because of the abomination in our world today. Not only that, but it is also a time for the church to be cleansed. Many times, a prophetic voice giving a warning comes before destruction to a Nation that does not heed the warning. Some of the signs are governments like America, turning away from God. Laws that are opposite of God's truth.
When you look at the beginning of Revelation, you see the Lord showed John what was to come to pass. In Revelation 4:1, He talks to John about the seven Asian Minor churches.
John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
What are the seven spirits: wisdom, understanding, counsel, of might, knowledge, fear of the lord, and the lord. Also mentioned in Isaiah 11:2-3.
These spirits are around the throne of God. John was in a vision. He hears and sees Rev 1:10-11.
11Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
Again, John hears the voice of the Lord. Rev. 11-12
And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
Let's look at the 7 lampstands in scripture and see the symbolism.
The lampstand is light. Also known as a menorah that was placed in the tabernacle, made of pure gold. Gold represents tested by fire, the church is in great testing, 1 Peter 1:7 says "That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:”
The lampstand has seven branches; the number 7 is completion in Christ.
Refining will come to the true people of God. In Job 23:10
and in Job 23:10 it says "But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold."
This is for those who do not waiver during testing. We are in the season of sorrows according to Matthew 24:4-8.
Prophetic Warning comes before destruction kjv
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows. Pay attention; it says pestilences (not just one but several). We see Israel and Palestinian wars, along with Lebanon and Syria - the proxies of Iran. This war is very significant. Out of this war, the covenant will be made to divide Israel.
The Antichrist will come on the scene. Where will he come from? Turkey. Read Rev. 2:12-16 - to the church of
Pergamum
. It describes the seat of Satan. Watch Turkey, Iran, and Saudi Arabia. Turkey wants the Ottoman Empire to control it. Iran is hungry to rule the Islam religion and the world as well. Wars will not only Israel with Lebanon and Syria, but Turkey will get involved in the peace treaty. Watch and pay attention to the news on this subject.When you look at the body of the beast, three countries will work with the Antichrist to kill. Iran, Iraq, and Turkey - part of Greece back in the day. I believe Greece will be taken over by Turkey in the later days.
The Lampstand was placed in the Holy Place of the Tabernacle in the Old Testament. The light of the world. The church should be a light of the world (Matthew 5:14)
John 1:4-5
The light given to everyone John 1;9 "
9That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world."
John 14:6 "6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."
The church to point man to Christ (1) the need (2) repentance (3) inviting Christ in their hearts (5) called out of darkness into His marvelous light (5) turning away from sin (6) gaining eternal life (7) grow in Christ through reading the word and prayer.
The church as a whole has failed. Many have removed repentance, removed the word sin, and accepted all kinds of sin. Not only that, it cheapened God's grace for our time that we can sin and believe we still have salvation. The church has become big business. It lost its salt. Many of the churches are no different from the world.
So, now, the church doors are closed. No one is allowed to gather during the Pandemic.
In Rev 1:5 "the price of the king of the earth unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood."
God does not want to destroy the church but realign back to the true gospel of Jesus Christ with power.
In Rev 1:13 John sees the son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
Kings usually wear a girdle across the chest to show dignity and honor. Jesus is the coming king. Jesus wants to come for its bride, but the bride is not ready. We are close to the time of the trumpets blowing, and the church is not purified.
Because of our sin, judgment is now released. Judgment is a good thing to get the church to repent and get back on track. This is a time to press in and preach the real message of what Jesus did for us.
Gold represents purity and glory. Gold has to go through the fire to become purified. Jesus was purified on the cross.
Rev. 1:14 "His head and his hair were white like wool, as white as snow his eyes were as a flame of fire. Usually when the Lord shows up, it is to give a message of judgment. As it was in Ezekiel, Daniel who both saw Jesus as described here. He appears to prophets before the great judgment. Ezek 1:4, 1:26-27, Ez 8:2, Daniel 7:9-10 As you know, Israel was an abomination to God.
What were the abominations to God?
In this vision, Ezekiel saw four abominations at the temple. They were probably not literal in that they were happening all simultaneously at the temple, and Ezekiel saw this in real time. God showed Ezekiel what was literally happening, in both an outward and in a spiritual sense.
- ·The outrageous idol, associated with the king (Ezekiel 8:5-6) -debased idols in the tabernacle.
- ·The images and censers, associated with the city leaders (Ezekiel 8:7-13)
- ·The weeping over Tammuz, associated with the women (Ezekiel 8:14-15)
- ·The worship of the sun, associated with the priests (Ezekiel 8:16-18) - worshipping nature
Weeping for Tammuz: This is the only mention of Tammuz in Ezekiel and the Old Testament. This was another example of pagan worship, and Tammuz was a deity worshipped by many in neighboring nations, often with immoral or impure rites. Fertility rituals are performed.
Ezekiel 16:20 "
And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good."
Ezekiel 18:12 "Hath oppressed the poor and needy, hath spoiled by violence, hath not restored the pledge, and hath lifted up his eyes to the idols, hath committed abomination,
Ezekiel 22:11 "And one hath committed abomination with his neighbour's wife; and another hath lewdly defiled his daughter in law; and another in thee hath humbled his sister, his father's daughter." - Adultery - defiling marriage
Let's look at today? What are the Abominations in the Bible?
Idolatry (money, sports, Hollywood (greed, corruption)
Idolatry in the church - big business, numbers money, and success - pastors are untouchable and unapproachable.
Worship has become entertainment. Even some of the songs they sing is what God can do for them. When worship should be about honoring the goodness of God.
Nations passing laws against God that know better.
1) abortion allowed and legal - murder - allowing babies to be killed right after birth
2) same-sex marriages
3) removing God out of the schools and government
4) legalizing drugs
5) not allowed to spank children and children rebellious and have no respect
6) The government wants to control the media and remove our First Amendment.
When a person sins, then that person is punished, but when a nation passes. Some countries have legalized pedophiles.
Vs. 16 "And he had in his hand seven stars; and out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
The beginning of sorrows is the beginning of hardships. It is used to get the filth, junk, and sickness out of the church.
Personally, get the sin out of you.
It is time to repent and turn from our wicked ways. Also, we need to pray for our government. There is a shift happening. Trump tried to stop the NWO, but guess what? We are entering the new world order by using the pestilence for change.
Watch in the coming months and listen for the new lingo.
The next pestilence will be worse than before. The difference is this pestilence is for all. Israel, when in Egypt, went through 3 plagues. Then, protected from other pestilences.
The next, if you are not prepared, you will be hit by this plague. Jesus is looking for a spotless bride to come, too. It is time to prepare. The Antichrist is after the time of sorrow.
Are you ready?
