Standing On The Promises


  And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.  [Revelation 21: 3-4] KJV

 The Bible, for those of us that read it, records the world from the beginning of time and gives us details about the end of time. It is the story of man and his journey from his fall into sin, to his redemption and the Lord's victory, in the end, over all evil. It is all there in God's Word for all to read. 

There are a lot of great mysteries found in God’s Word. One of the great mysteries found there is how God has placed the prophetic time clock around the Hebrew calendar. To give you an idea of how God is working according to the Hebrew calendar, check these three dates out. [1] When Jesus was crucified, and became the Lamb of God for the world, it was on Passover. [2] When He rose from the dead, it was exactly on the feast of first fruits. [3] After He went to heaven, and 50 days after Passover was the outpouring of the Holy Spirit during Pentecost or the Hebrew feast of Shevuot. The feast of Sukkot is a harvest feast, which is also known as the feast of the gathering people in. This indicated the beginning of the harvest season. Just like this harvest feast there has been a great harvest of souls for the past 2000 years by God's workers. This prophetic feast is one of the few  that has not yet been fulfilled prophetically yet.

Yes there has been a great harvest for the past 2000 years.The harvest for souls by God’s workers.  But for the people of  the world, the focus on  life has been and is,  on youth, beauty, health, money, worldly wealth, and ability to get what they want. In the autumn or latter years of life, for the people of this world there's less celebration, less happiness, less joy, because according to the worldly people, life goes downhill. But they are so wrong because with God, it's completely opposite than unsaved people of this world  think! God always saves the best for His people for last! While things of the world get worse, war becomes more violent, things become old and slowly fade away, but as all born again Christians knows the things of God only get better! We can look toward, with great rejoicing to the day when there is no more death, no more sorrow, no more pain because in Him all these things will pass away. They will be gone. Let us throw away all our worldly cares, and look toward Heaven because our Redemption draws nigh. The greatest celebration of all time awaits all followers of the Lord Jesus Christ!

We must remember God has wrote the finial chapter and it is about the eternal joy that awaits all true believers who love and follow Him. Eternity with God will be more wonderful than we could ever imagine or visualize. Although word events are troubling they will soon be no more. what a day that will be!
