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

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
