Light in the Last Days – Day 64

On By KateIn Devotionals, Light in the Last Days1 Comment

Let’s be honest: the news is frightening. You don’t need to be a scholar to realize that the world has shifted into a strange and darker territory. People are searching for answers to the chaos, sensing that something is deeply wrong. Fortunately, the believer doesn’t have to wander in the dark. With spiritual eyes wide open, we can discern exactly what is happening behind the scenes of our global reality.

Ephesians 6:12  For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

We have reached a point where evil has stepped out of the shadows and into the spotlight. From the world’s biggest stages, we witness rituals and demonic displays that were once unthinkable. The spirit of the antichrist isn’t just appearing; it is surging forward with unprecedented force. While this ungodly agenda is shoved down the world’s throat, a spirit of sleep has fallen over the Church. It is a crying shame that so many leaders are silent, prioritizing their own comfort and wealth over the spiritual survival of their people. A holy God will not ignore this negligence. The judgment of the Lord is coming upon those who refuse to stand for the truth, and their position is one of great peril.

God is not the author of confusion; He has a divine plan, and He has clearly outlined it within the pages of the Bible. He has not left us in the dark. Every single prophecy spoken by the prophets and by Jesus Christ has been fulfilled with a 100% success rate; every… single… one! Because of this, we can be certain that the prophecies yet to come are inevitable. Meanwhile, the “prince of the power of the air” is tightening his grip, using satanic influences to darken minds and spread deception. As the father of lies, Satan has enamored the world with his lies, influencing the weak to commit violence and enticing the ambitious to trade their souls for worldly success.

John 8:44  Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

There are only two masters, and if you haven’t been born again, you are serving the wrong one. Jesus, who is the Truth, explained that those outside of God’s grace are following the devil’s lead. You can see the blueprint of this deception in the verses above. As believers, we see the mask fall off—we know Satan’s only goal is your ruin. He is not your friend, and he has no “kingdom” to share with you. His only destination is the Lake of Fire, and he wants to take as many people with him as possible. Don’t believe the lie that hell is a social gathering; Jesus warned that it is a place of weeping and gnashing of teeth, a level of torment that defies earthly description.

Matthew 8:12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 13:42 And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 13:50 And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 22:13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 24:51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 25:30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Luke 13:28 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.

2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone [brimstone is sulphur]: which is the second death.

Does this sound like a celebration to you? People often joke that they’d rather be in hell with their friends, but the “gnashing of teeth” suggests a reality that is anything but social. This phrase depicts a level of pain—both physical and spiritual—that results in the literal grinding of teeth. It is the sound of eternal remorse. I dare say that no one who understands the weight of these words would ever want to participate in such a place. It is not a party; it is a tragedy of infinite proportions.

STRONGS NT 1030: βρυγμός

βρυγμός, βρυγμου, ὁ (βρύχω, which see), a gnashing of teeth: with τῶν ὀδόντων added, a phrase denoting the extreme anguish and utter despair of men consigned to eternal condemnation, Matthew 8:12; Matthew 13:42, 50; Matthew 22:13; Matthew 24:51; Matthew 25:30; Luke 13:28; in Proverbs 19:12  snarling, growling; in the sense of biting

The descriptions provided by Jesus aren’t metaphors; they are warnings about a physical and spiritual reality. Look at the language used: it all deals with man’s senses. This is not a social gathering; it is a place where your sight, hearing, and touch are subjected to the “outer darkness” and the “unquenchable fire.” Just as the rich man in Luke 16:19-31 begged for a moment of relief for his tongue and received nothing, those in hell will find no comfort. Let’s be clear: there is no party there. None at all.

For the born-again believer, today’s headlines are not a reason to tremble in fear, but a signal to look up in expectation! We can rejoice knowing that we are not destined for wrath, but are promised deliverance from the horrors of the seven-year Tribulation period.

Oh friend, you must be born again if you do not want to go to Hell. You must be born again if you want to take part in the Rapture of the Church. 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?

Rapture and End Time News – Demon “Lilith”

On By KateIn Devotionals, Rapture and End Time NewsLeave a comment

Welcome to Hell! If this doesn’t bother you, Reader, then something is wrong with your discernment. Granted this is simply a video game named Diablo IV. But is it really? Is it merely a coincidence that it appeared on a billboard in New York when the city was covered in orange haze due to the fires blowing in from Canada?

(Mat 16:3)  And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?

In Jewish mythology, Lilith (pictured on the billboard above and is a part of this game) was known to prey on newborn infants and seducing unsuspecting men. What’s even more disgusting is that she would use their “seed” to spawn demon babies. What is upsetting here is what she is known for in this Jewish mythology! It comes as no surprise that New York was the first state to make abortion legal in 1970. It has become the habitat for the worst sins of humanity.

It’s easy to see how the spirit of antichrist is in the world today. No longer do we see the deeds of corrupt and evil men and women hidden behind closed doors. Sin is openly exposed to the world and it has hardened their hearts. Seeing the devil’s work blatantly spread across our nation is disturbing, to say the least. But the more the world sees these types of advertisements, etc., it will become immune to the harm it brings on unsuspecting hearts. We are desensitized to sin in this world and it is getting worse by the day.

(1Jn 4:3)  And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

The saddest thing about all of this is that to the world Hell is downgraded to a videogame. Unfortunately, the Bible says it’s a real place, (with eternal punishment, fire and pain) where those who are not born-again believers will spend an eternity!

(Mat 13:42)  And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

(Mar 1:15)  And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

The time is coming when it will be too late for you to repent. You will remember each opportunity you were given by God to be saved; you will remember each time you laughed it off and ignored it. Please Reader, repent and accept Christ into your life. (Act 16:31, Rom 10:9) I want to be sure that anyone who reads the posts on this blog can know beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are going to Heaven. Have you received Christ as your Saviour? If no, your sins are not covered by His sacrificial offering of Himself. You have not been redeemed by His blood. 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.
