We are entering the greatest era of the Church of Jesus Christ. Jesus warns us of doctrines of demons that will deceive the church in the last part of the age. The Apostle Paul warned about this in 1 Timothy 4:1
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons,
I believe the false teaching of dispensationalism has led us to believe that the church will be delivered from a false tribulation to come. In my early years in ministry, I believed in such a theory. After being filled with the Holy Spirit in 1992, the Lord began to work on my heart and showed me a more biblical and scriptural truth that contradicts this theory.
Thus, I believe that the scripture teaches that before the “catching away” of the bride end of the elect, we will all participate and be a part of the greatest spiritual awakening ever recorded in history. The greatest enemy of this truth will be the institutional church which will hold on to the doctrine of demons because of a false belief system based on dispensationalism.
Presently, we are in the preparation of the remnant which first step will be following the Lord to prepare the full remnant who will along with angelic host bring in the full harvest or grid awakening. I believe this according to Matthew 13:36-42 (ESV)
Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples came to him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.” 37 He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. 40 Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age.41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers, 42 and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.
The wheat and the tares will be gathered in at the end of the age, the tares to judgment of fire and the wheat brought in the storehouse for the harvest. Before that, the angelic host remove from the world although wicked and those that caused lawlessness. Is it possible that we are witnessing that great preparation happening presently through President Donald J Trump resulting from the prayers of thousands of intercessors all over the world who have been praying that God's Kingdom would come on earth as it is in heaven? Apostle Jackie Mare from South Africa just shared with me how this remnant will walk with angels as Enoch did.
The apostle Peter also spoke concerning the age that the Holy Spirit would be “poured out upon all flesh” in Acts 2:16-17.
“‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares,
that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh,
and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
and your old men shall dream dreams;
18 even on my male servants and female servants
in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy.”
He was speaking this to give credence to the prophet Joel who prophesied the same thing in his book in the Old Testament. Thus, Pentecost was the beginning but not a full consummation of this promise. That's because the prophet Habakkuk prophesied this in his book; Habakkuk 2:14
For the earth will be filled
with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.
This verse would help to confirm what Jesus said in Matthew 24:14
“And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come”.
This understanding seems plausible especially as we recognize the heart of God in 2 Peter 3:9.
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance.
What should our response be as we consider this possibility of a great awakening? First of all, I believe we need to repent for any lukewarmness that we have in our soul . To be lukewarm is to not be prepared for what God is about to do. To be lukewarm is to ignore the heart of God for the broken and the lost. We must ask the Lord to rekindle the fire and passion for our love for him and for others. Peter said this in Acts 3 :19 as recorded by Luke.
Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, 20 that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that he may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus,
If you have no desire to repent and to draw closer to the Lord, then you are probably not part of the remnant that God has called for the end of age. That is a scary proposition! Don't be that guy!
Secondly, we are to pray that the Lord of the harvest send reapers or workers into the harvest field; Matthew 9:36-38 (ESV)
“When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few;38 therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
Lastly, we must seek the Lord with all our hearts to gain his strategy for this season. I believe all are called but few seemed to respond. Many seemed to be distracted by the cares of life in the entertainment which so plagues our culture. I invite you after you read this blog to take a minute and allow the Holy Spirit to convict you and to move in your heart to position you to bring the greatest harvest and and spiritual awakening in the history of mankind! Surely, the best is yet to come! “the Spirit and the Bride say ‘come Lord Jesus’”.
