Dear Fellow Doves

Now is the time.  No more delay, I pray, along with you.

A word for August 2/3/4 from God’s Holy Word.

While we wait for our Redeemer from heaven to take us in the rapture event, He has given us a word.  “Get in the secret place”.  That is, “meet Me in the secret place”.  That, of course, is communion with our most Holy God Almighty.  The following passage of Holy Writ tells us why!

Many watchers now believe that August 3/4 are days of great import to the rapture of the Bride of Christ.  This is August 2/3, as this is written.  It is a good word to keep in our hearts.

Psalm 91

1.  He who dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2.  I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God; in Him will I trust.
3.  Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4.  He shall cover thee with with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust; His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5.  Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night, nor for the arrow that flieth by day. 
6.  Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness, nor for the destruction that wasteth  at noonday.
7.  A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand, but it shall not come nigh thee.
8.  Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and the reward of the wicked.

When the sudden destruction comes, when the missiles fly, when the evil men of this world seek to destroy, to maim, and to murder, and to bring in mayhem for evil gain and purpose, we shall not fear.  Our destiny is to be raptured into the air with King Jesus.  When world war III overtakes this place, and chemical and biological weapons are  unleashed upon people, we need not fear, for only with our eyes will we see the destruction.  When the worldwide calamity of the sudden destruction comes, we need not fear, because we will be in the “secret place” abiding under the feathers of the Almighty, in the place of refuge, in the ark so to speak, in the air with our Lord Jesus Christ.

Neither shall the chosen Israelites be afraid, for they will be protected in the strong place (Petra?) away from the destruction caused by the changing of the world.

If our taking out precedes the missiles and subsequent pestilence, then this Psalm refers to the Israelis.  But if the destruction comes at the same time as the rapture of the saints, then this Psalm refers to us.  It may refer to both.

The last part, vss 9ff evidently are speaking to those secured during the awful holocaust of bombs and biochemical missiles. Perhaps both the Bride and the chosen Israelites are in view throughout the Psalm.
