Light in the Last Days – Day 60
Remember how often our parents said, “I told you NOT to…” followed by a warning we ignored? In my 44 years of walking with the Lord, I’ve heard only a handful of sermons on the end times. It’s rarely a popular topic behind the pulpit, which is baffling considering prophecy makes up nearly a third of the Bible. Would you settle for only two-thirds of an audiobook? Certainly not! I would notice the missing pieces immediately, especially in a book I’ve studied time and again.
Today, we have no excuse for ignorance. Between physical Bibles, apps, and the internet, the Truth is at our fingertips. God will hold this generation accountable for having the key to the mansion but refusing to unlock the door. We have total access to the message of eternal life; to ignore it is a tragedy.
Preaching on prophecy followed a similar pattern until recently. Before the pandemic, few voices were teaching this subject online. However, that global shutdown forced a breakthrough, creating a digital highway for the Word. Now, a believer isn’t limited by geography; you can access powerful, biblical preaching from across the globe with a single click. What an incredible resource for the days we live in! But having the resource isn’t the same as having a revival. If people were truly flocking to these truths, our lands would look different. We must remember that prophecy wasn’t given to satisfy curiosity, but to prepare the Church and open the eyes of those who are still lost.
Revelation 1:1-3 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: (2) Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. (3) Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
We are witnesses to prophetic history … are you paying attention to the signs that have already been checked off the list? Make sure you are listening to preaching that fuels your faith to live by God’s Word. The message for the hour is simple but profound: stop looking at the chaos around you and start looking upward! Our Blessed Hope is on the horizon.
Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
As we witness Bible prophecy being fulfilled before our eyes, we can rest in the absolute certainty that the remaining promises will come to pass. Not a single prophecy from the Bible in history has failed, and the future will be no different. We hold the prophetic blueprint in our hands, detailed and complete. Jesus will follow this divine plan down to the smallest “jot and tittle.” When God speaks a word into the future, it is as certain as if it has already happened.
Matthew 5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Friend, you must be born again in order to participate, no matter what viewpoint you hold. Friend, if you are not born again, it is no coincidence that God has placed you here for such a time as this so that you may be saved if you are not already. Don’t you want to be a part of the Church when she is raptured into the clouds to meet Jesus?

Light in the Last Days – Day 59
The “super-sign” of the end times has always been the nation of Israel. While the world revolves around politics and power, God’s prophecy revolves around His chosen people and their Messiah. After a long period of exile and spiritual wandering, Israel’s return to her land on May 14, 1948, serves as the ultimate starting gun for the final lap of human history. The “prophetic clock” is no longer dormant; it is ticking loudly toward the return of Christ. Here is how we know the hour is late:
Isaiah 11:11-12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. (12) And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
Ezekiel 20:33-38 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, surely with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out, will I rule over you: (34) And I will bring you out from the people, and will gather you out of the countries wherein ye are scattered, with a mighty hand, and with a stretched out arm, and with fury poured out. (35) And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face. (36) Like as I pleaded with your fathers in the wilderness of the land of Egypt, so will I plead with you, saith the Lord GOD. (37) And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant: (38) And I will purge out from among you the rebels, and them that transgress against me: I will bring them forth out of the country where they sojourn, and they shall not enter into the land of Israel: and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
There is an abundance of scripture regarding Israel’s return to the land, but these two passages clearly illustrate the point: the prophetic clock is ticking. This miracle serves as our “finish line” marker, signaling that the end times are here. Paul and Peter acted as watchmen, describing exactly what society would look like in this era. Their warnings are more relevant now than ever—just take a look at these verses:
1 Timothy 4:1-3 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; (2) Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; (3) Forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them which believe and know the truth.
2 Timothy 3:1-5 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.
2 Timothy 4:3-4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; (4) And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
2 Peter 3:3-5 Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, (4) And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. (5) For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
It is undeniable that our world has reached this sobering threshold. Today, we see “churches”—to use the term loosely—brazenly preaching that homosexuality and other forms of sexual immorality are acceptable to God. At the same time, other congregations have become so entangled in man-made traditions that they’ve abandoned the Word of God as their final authority. These institutions often clutter the beautiful simplicity of the Gospel with extra requirements. Yet, God made the path to salvation so clear and accessible that even a child can grasp it!
Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Romans 8:16-17 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: (17) And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
There is only one sure way to Heaven, and that way is through Jesus Christ alone. Salvation is not found in a denomination, it isn’t hidden in the dreams of a self-proclaimed prophet, and it cannot be reached through “enlightenment” or gods who promise a higher plane of existence. Jesus didn’t just point to the truth; He is the Truth. Any other path is a distraction from the only Name under heaven by which we must be saved.
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
God didn’t want us lost in a maze of conflicting opinions or shifting directions. He made His path straight and narrow so there would be no mistaking it. Choosing this road often means walking against the crowd, as many choose not to follow. However, for those who do, the way is always clear because God’s Word acts as a constant, steady light for every step.
Psalm 119:105 NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
Oh friend, you must be born again in order to participate in the Rapture, no matter what viewpoint you hold. Friend, if you are not born again, it is no coincidence that God has placed you here for such a time as this so that you may be saved if you are not already. Don’t you want to be a part of the Church when she is raptured into the clouds to meet Jesus?

Light in the Last Days – Day 58
2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
Luke 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
What was the “something” that pulled Lot’s wife back? It’s a haunting question. We see a city of judgment, but she saw her family, her neighborhood and her daily life. That pull of nostalgia and regret is a human experience we all go through. However, as believers, there comes a point where we have to hit the brakes. We must stop the cycle of looking back and realize that what lies ahead is far more vital than what we’re leaving behind.
Becoming “born again” is more than a title; it’s a heart transplant. The barrier that once kept us in the dark is removed, and the Holy Spirit makes His home in our deepest selves. He immediately starts the work of pivoting our perspective, turning our “worldly to-do list” into a spiritual calling. As you reflect on your own life, ask yourself: what is currently taking priority in your heart?
Like Lot’s wife, many of us struggle with the pull of the past. If you find yourself distracted by what you left behind, you may be hindering the Spirit’s prodding to change you. Jesus made it clear: looking back while plowing makes one unfit for the Kingdom. It’s a matter of the heart; a heart not fully turned to God will eventually turn back to the world. Imagine trying to drive a tractor while staring out the rear window—you’ll never maintain a straight line. Progress requires a forward gaze. Lot’s wife wasn’t ignorant of the coming judgment, but her “last-ditch effort” to glimpse what she still loved ended in a tragic, final cost.
Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus. Live with your gaze toward the horizon, anticipating Christ’s return and our Blessed Hope in the Rapture. Don’t allow the heavy cares of this world to break your focus or pull you away from the work He has called you to do. Keep plowing; the harvest is near.
Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Paul was the ultimate exhorter. If anyone had a “good” old life to miss, it was him—he had power, respect, and position as a Pharisee. But Paul didn’t look back. He used his ministry to show the brethren that the only direction for a believer is forward and up. He traded his history for a heavenly hope.
Philippians 3:13-14 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, (14) I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
The world is largely unaware that, for them, this life is as good as it gets. They are living their “best life” right now. But for the born-again believer, this current life is actually the worst we will ever experience. Why? Because we know that a far greater, perfect place has been prepared for us in eternity!
John 14:1-4 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. (2) In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. (3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. (4) And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Romans 8:18-23 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. (19) For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. (20) For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, (21) Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. (22) For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. (23) And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
Friend, unless you are born again, you cannot fully understand these verses. But to the believer, these are exciting words. They encourage us to look ahead because we know what is to come. If you are not born again, it is no coincidence that God has placed you here for such a time as this so that you may be saved if you are not already.

Light in the Last Days – Day 57
1 Corinthians 15:51-52 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, (52) In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. (14) For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. (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.
Revelation 21:9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife.
When we look at the Rapture, we should see the heart of Jesus Christ for His Bride. As the body of Christ, the Church holds a unique position that makes its presence during the Tribulation unlikely. It stands to reason that Christ would not leave His own body to face the sheer scale of suffering that is coming upon the earth. This gift of the Rapture serves as a reminder that the Bride is destined for a heavenly reunion rather than earthly wrath.
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.
This tells me that the seven-year Tribulation period is the worst time that has EVER come upon this earth. If you think the ten plagues of Egypt during the time of Moses was bad, you ain’t seen nothing yet!
The Bible describes the relationship between Jesus and His followers through the image of a human body, where Christ is the head and the Church is His physical representation on earth. 1 Corinthians explains that while we are many individuals, we are unified into one singular body. This “design” means that our connection to the Lord is not merely a spiritually legal agreement but a biological necessity in the Spirit. Therefore, a total separation from the Lord is impossible; we are bone of His bone and flesh of His flesh, eternally joined to Him.
Romans 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
Romans 12:5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.
1 Corinthians 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
1 Corinthians 12:27 Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
Ephesians 3:6 That the Gentiles should be fellowheirs, and of the same body, and partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel:
Ephesians 4:12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
Colossians 1:24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the church:
Colossians 2:17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
The Church is the literal body of Christ, raising an important question: how could the body ever be severed from its Head, the Lord Jesus? It is impossible!! Just as a husband and wife are joined as one flesh, Christ and His Church share an unbreakable bond – the great mystery described in Ephesians 5:32. This unity makes it impossible for the Church to remain on earth during the Tribulation, the most horrifying and devastating period in history. Christ would not be separated from His body, nor would He leave His Bride behind.
It’s not rocket science, friend. Friend, you must be born again in order to participate, no matter what viewpoint you hold. Friend, if you are not born again, it is no coincidence that God has placed you here for such a time as this so that you may be saved if you are not already.
