In the Clouds!!! 9/24/23
2 Timothy 3:1-9 (KJV)
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,
7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.
2 Timothy 3:1 (KJV)
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
PERILOUS TIMES-perhaps from <G5465> (chalao) through the idea of reducing the strength; difficult, i.e. dangerous, or (by implication) furious :- fierce, perilous.Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
I AWOKE(PRAISE THE LORD for AWAKENING AGAIN!!!” at the crack of 11:30 AM-I GOT SOME SLEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It has been a “perilous time” these past ten days as our WONDERFUL nurse has been on vacation.
In the midst of my “perilous” ten day excursion, God awoke me with the above Word concerning THESE “PERILOUS TIMES!!!”
AGAIN:
2 Timothy 3:1 (KJV)
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
Over the course of my almost 50 year ministry I have preached countless times on the ASSUREDLY SOON COMING of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
I preached these messages in FAITH, never, ever even considering how PERILOUS this time would be or is now-PERILOUS TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Daily/hourly WE are bombarded by “useless information supposed to fire my imagination” AKA-THE ROLLING STONES-I CAN'T GET NO SATISFACTION!”
One day/one moment YOUR political favorite is up and winning, the next day they are down.
One day/one moment YOUR favorite sports team is up and winning, the next day they are down.
One day/one moment WE feel good/DO DA DO DA DO, the next day-well, you know the drill................................
PERILOUS TIMES-perhaps from <G5465> (chalao) through the idea of reducing the strength; difficult, i.e. dangerous, or (by implication) furious :- fierce, perilous.Strong's Talking Greek & Hebrew Dictionary.
REDUCING THE STRENGTH..........................TIMES
DIFFICULT/DANGEROUS OR (BY IMPLICATION) FURIOUS TIMES
FIERCE, PERILOUS TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does not this Biblical depiction of these LAST DAYS apropos????????
Daniel the Prophet, in writing about THESE DAYS, declared:
Daniel 7:25 (KJV)
25 And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.
satan desires to “WEAR OUT THE SAINTS OF THE MOST HIGH, and
THINK TO CHANGE TIMES AND LAWS!!!”
Think about this/SELAH this TRUTH for a moment........................
Paul teaches US to:
1 Timothy 2:1-2 (KJV)
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
The OBJECT of our PRAYER is very simply “THAT WE MAY LIVE A QUIET AND PEACEABLE LIFE IN ALL GODLINESS AND HONESTY!!!!”
satan's objective is the complete opposite:
Revelation 12:12 (KJV)
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
Once again/in a nutshell, I AGAIN preach to YOU TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The devil knows and WE must realize the TIMES WE are living in-THE TIME IS SHORT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As THIS world boils in apathy and wickedness, as wars and rumors of wars abound, as political corruption erupts daily, may we PRAY:
1 Timothy 2:1-2 (KJV)
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
Like all of you, I daily intend no harm or hurt to any fellow human being!!!
I just want to, like a good prisoner, simply “do my time” here on earth and await the SECOND COMING of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!!!!
1 Thessalonians 4:15-18 (KJV)
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
AMEN AND AMEN!!!
God Bless YOU,
