"Growing Extremely Weary"
First of all, I don't mean to simply write in to
complain or sound apathetic in any regard. The mere fact that I
even faithfully go to five doves proves somewhat to myself that I've at
least got one eye up towards heaven.
However, since
1998, Yeshua has put a deep love for end time events in my heart.
As most have in the past, looking at prophetic events sometimes brings
excitement and sometimes waiting and then sometimes lethargy. I'm
here to tell you that my exciting years were 1998/99, 2000/01, 2002,
2007, 2008..and well frankly I'm running out of excitement. I
know that I know that things are quickly escalating towards the main
event, but these years of extreme excitement have really given birth to
an almost apathetic attitude toward the waiting game. I'm
actually tired of hearing about a peace agreement in Israel, since I've
been hearing that heavily from the days of the Palestinian
intifada...frankly, go for peace already...quit talking about it.
Why you ask? Because I know that peace deal comes probably after
the calling away and that means I'll be with Messiah getting ready for
the Marriage Supper.
I just don't see how many more
times we can say, "Well, Gog and Magog are just around the corner...and
Israel is close to peace, or the antichrist is walking the earth in
wait, and this sign in the heavens blew across the sky last night
(forgive my attitude). Folks, it's so late in the game that if
the economy falls any further and sin becomes more rampant, we might
have to seek safety away in an underground bunker somewhere. I
want the rapture to avoid all of the godlessness that prevails among
many other reasons.
Now, all that being said, understand
that I speak in the flesh right now and I truly am still waiting
expectantly. My eyes are very focused toward heaven and now I
have another year to put some things on the "List of reasons why this
is the year". Among those: the Psalms 110-118, Iran, economy, Gog
and Magog, signs in the heavens in 2014/15 (which I hope is the middle
of the trib), etc. The only difference is that these lists are
slowly losing their influence on me through the years.
Fellow
believers in the faith, pray for me that I will receive an
encouragement from the holy spirit the next few months if this is not
the Rosh Hashanah of promise. I'm not sure how much more I can
bear waiting.
