World War 3 is at Hand
While we wait for Iran's annihilation and its regime change, let's check our own Christian faith, doctrine and knowledge of Him and His words.
Wrath of Satan
Rev 13:5-7 And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty- two months. Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation.
Immediately after the war, the Antichrist will form the 'One World Religion' with the rebuilding of the temple of God by the Jewish Priesthood and the 'One World Order' with the introduction of the mark of the beast. God will allow the Antichrist for the first time to have complete power over the saints worldwide for 42 months.
Dan 12:7 Then I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever, that it shall be for a time, times, and half a time; and when the power of the holy people has been completely shattered, all these things shall be finished.
Great Shocks to New Converts
During World War 3, born again Christians have been empowered with :
1. Blood of Jesus
Whenever he confesses his sins, the blood of Jesus will cleanse all his sins and he is once again in the arms of God. No one, including Satan can harm him.
2. The Name of Jesus
God then allows him to use the power of the Name of Jesus to:-
1. Cast out demons
2. Heal the sick
3. Perform miracles and;
4. Pray, intercede, praise, thank, fellowship and love God.
Those saved in WW3 (survivors) have all witnessed the saints (Christians and new converts) enjoying this empowerment to the fullness during World War 3. They have frequently cast out demons to free the demon-possessed from bondages and sicknesses.
Suddenly, it looks like the whole scenario has changed for Satan and his demons can now pursue, harm and kill the saints, who are now completely powerless. For the sake of purifying His new converts and saints from their many weaknesses, God has given permission to Satan to persecute and martyr them.
Secret Places of God
Rev 12:14 But the woman (saints) was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent.
Thank God that before God gave the permission to Satan, He has already kept His saints in the millions of cell groups created in the wilderness (secret places), which Satan cannot detect (from the presence of Satan).
Our all knowing, wise and loving Father God will protect and nourish them with the most delicious food for three and a half years to frustrate Satan's wicked schemes of getting the people to persecute and torture them and also to starve them till they submit and apostate. Please read Psalm 91.
Psalms 72:9 Those who dwell in the wilderness will bow before Him, And His enemies will lick the dust.
Patience of the Saints
Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.
Just like the fellowship of Adam and Eve with God, these three and a half years in His secret place (wilderness) will be like the garden of Eden.
Fellowshipping with saints and godly brethren in His presence are just pure bliss on earth before we go back to be with our loving Father in the Kingdom of God.
Brethren, have you kept His commandments of loving one another as Jesus had loved us and kept faith in Jesus by keeping His words so that the period of tribulation becomes the wilderness blessing just like the blissful living in the Garden of Eden or heaven on earth?
