THE TIME OF JACOB’S TROUBLE

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: THE TIME OF JACOB’S TROUBLE 
TEXT: REVELATION 19:1-10

WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 5th

Key verse: Matthew 24:21. “For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be” 
The Great Tribulation will occur after the rapture and will be a time of terrible suffering on earth. It is also referred to as the time of “Jacob’s trouble” Jeremiah 30:7. There will be great tribulation such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time no, nor ever shall it be. It is called; the day of the Lord, a day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds of thick darkness, a day of waste and desolation and a time of trouble. 
The purpose of the great tribulation is to make Israel suffer so that they can be ready to cry to the Messiah; the Lord Jesus Christ whom they presently reject, to come to them. It is also to judge the unbelieving men and women of all ages. The Bible shows that the great tribulation will take off after the rapture of the church, and will last for seven years. It will end at the second advent of Jesus Christ, when He alights on mount Olives and settles in Jerusalem for a thousand-year millennial reign. 
This means that it is post-rapture and pre-millennium or the last week of Daniel’s 70 weeks. Daniel 9:26, 27. It is post-rapture because God will not let His children to suffer the great tribulation, its judgments and destructions. He saved Noah, (a preacher of righteousness) and his family before destroying the world with flood. He rescued lot (who was vexed with the filthy conversation of Sodom) and family before destroying it with fire. So God will take away his children from the earth before the great tribulation begins.
The great tribulation reaches its peak of destructions, judgments, terrors, frightening wars and desolation from the middle of the seven-year duration and ends with Christ’s Second Advent. That is when the antichrist breaks his seven-year peace covenant with Israel and attacks Jerusalem. 

Thought for the day: Strive to escape the great tribulation.

Song of the day: There is a great day coming, a great day coming bye and bye.

Bible reading for the day: 
Isaiah 31-33; Philippines 1

Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Signs And Wonders Should Be According To Biblical Pattern Text: Mark 16: 17 – 20 Wednesday May 8th Key verse: Obadiah 17 “Upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.” God has prepared to direct us on holy service unto Himself. He tells us when the lives and services of people are corrupt because from the heart of men proceed the works they do. When people are righteous and holy, their service is also righteous and holy. Hence, the word says, make the people holy then their service will be holy, so if you accept to live a life of holiness, then the fruit of your service will be holy. So, it is very important to accept the life of holiness because the God that made you is holy; He will give you grace to be holy. You just make up your mind to be holy. Do not accept that no man can be holy; then Jesus came for nothing, Jes...

God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider

God's blessings shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. God’s Extra Effort In Restoring The Backslider  Sunday May 12th Text: Jeremiah 3: 15 – 17 Key verse: Ezekiel 33: 11 Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel.  Receive the word that will change you, restore you, reestablish you and give you back the hope of eternal life. Come back! The Lord is pleading. Can you see the effort of God in your life? And can you see madness in your life; resisting every effort God is making. God is calling you. Retrace your ways. Follow the good old way. Go and confess those things, do not keep them. Your problem is, you want to serve God but you have not confessed your sins openly because of shame, fear and  pride which shall be dissolved in hell. That is where your problem is. Yes, you wa...
