Keep Your Oil Lamps Full!

 Other than the birth, life, death and resurrection of Jesus, we live in the most exciting times throughout all generations!  Back when Jesus was here on Earth, only a small number of people even knew He was the Son of God, the Messiah!  Now, the entire world has the option, the ability to watch prophecies written thousands of years ago come true before our very eyes. Why? Because the Bible is the highest selling book of all time. It is available everywhere now, in every country and location. Even if people can't get a physical copy, they can find it online. So, there's really no excuse at all for living in La-la land and not having a clue concerning the times in which we live. All anyone has to do, even non-believers, is pick up the Bible and read the prophecies and quietly ask God that if He exists to reveal things to him or her. And Voila! Everything comes into focus. Yet, the really sad thing is that, it's not only the non-believers who don't do that, but the believers as well. 

Hence, there is such a small remnant of followers of Jesus who see what is happening and who are getting excited to see our King. What a fabulous time to be alive!  The rapture generation!  The generation who will not all die, but who will be snatched from this Earth and instantly transformed into eternal beings!  Sometimes I have to stop and really think about it, imagine it if I can, because it seems so unbelievable! Nevertheless, we believe it and we know it will happen! 

Whether or not you agree with what Trump did, He is simply following a Script, a plan fomented for years and finally given the green light to go ahead. What Trump has kicked off is the beginning of World War 3 and such chaos and violence as the world has never known. While they are saying..... 

For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. 1 Thess 5:3

And what are we hearing now? A call for peace. A call for negotiations and surrender. Do I think we will have peace now? I do not. In fact, quite the opposite. Russia and China are allies of Iran. These are two very powerful nuclear nations. Do you really think they will sit back and do nothing? Can they even do that when they have signed alliances with Iran? We know from several prophecies, some from present times and some given long ago, that the USA will be attacked by both Russia and China. It actually has to be. We have to be taken down and off the world stage for the following reasons

1. There can be no One World Government with a strong, independent America still around. We are too independent and brave of a people to capitulate to a world government

2. The Gog-Magog war cannot happen until we are taken out. Why? When Russia/Iran/Turkey etc.. attack Israel, they must be at peace AND the USA must not be able to come to their aid as we just did. 

Hence, it is my opinion that somehow we are going to be attacked from both within and without, and now Russia and China have their reason.  I'm not saying this to cause fear, but to prepare you. Many Godly people have had dreams that the rapture occurs around the time America is attacked. Perhaps that's why the Greek word harpazō means  to seize, carry off by force,  to seize on, claim for one's self eagerly,  to snatch out or away.  

Somewhere during or after this attack, a momentary peace settles on the Middle East, either by treaty or simply exhaustion. That's when the Gog-Magog war commences. When Israel least expects it. It is then, when Israel can make no claim that other nations came in and saved her, that God, Himself, intervenes in a supernatural way and rescues Israel so they have no excuse but to give Him the Glory.  The defeat of Russia and Iran is so complete and devastating that a man of peace emerges to make a peace treaty with all involved that everyone is eager and willing to sign.  Part of that treaty may be the building of Israel's Third temple on the temple mount. This is how I see things playing out based on Scripture. I am no prophet, however, so I could be wrong about the order and timing of these events.  Time will tell. 

Either way, the Word of the Lord for us today is "Keep your Oil Lamps Full"  

What is the oil? Oil throughout Scripture is symbolic of the Holy Spirit. What's interesting about the Holy Spirit is that you have to be continually filled with Him. Apparently He can leak out of you based on perhaps your use of His power or even your wandering from the Lord or of course, sin.  So, even after you receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, you need to keep refilling yourself day by day. A quick read of Acts will show you that only when the Apostles were Filled with the Holy Spirit were they able to do great things for God. (just do a search on "filled or full of the Holy Spirit").

Ephesians 5:18 : And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit.
Ephesians 4:30:And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

The most famous example is the parable of the 10 Virgins in Matthew 25. All Ten Virgins were believers in Jesus. But only five kept their lamps full of oil. The other five did not make the rapture because they had no oil. 

So, how do you keep yourself full of the Holy Spirit?  
 
1. Stay close to Jesus. Spend time with Him in prayer, worship, and praise. 
2. Read your Bible with the guidance of the Holy Spirit
3. Invite the Holy Spirit to fill your entire being and lead you through your day
4. Walk in Repentance and humility
5. Submit yourself to the Lord and as much as you are able, walk in obedience. 
6. Set your mind on things above, on things of the Spirit, and not on things of this world

This is NOT Works. We can never work our way to heaven. This is just about having a real loving relationship with Jesus.  That's all you need to do. But remember, our enemy will do his best to keep you from keeping your oil lamp full!  Nothing would please him more than to have you left behind. 

Time is short. Prophecy is being fulfilled minute by minute. Even an atheist should be asking himself what is all the fuss with Israel and the Jews?  The country is the size of New Jersey!  Have you seen how big Iran is? Why is the world up in arms about Israel and hating the Jews so much?  Why aren't people asking themselves these questions?  The answer is in the Bible. The Jews are God's Chosen and the Tribulation is about bringing the remnant of real Hebrews back to God. If people would stop and think and see the truth, they'd know that there is a God in Heaven and He's the God of the Bible and Jesus is real and offers them eternal life if they only turn to Him!!  

Stay safe. Avoid large gatherings of people. Pray always. And keep looking up!

  1. Hello Sister in Christ,

    Beautiful reference to the Ten Virgins - it highlights how being watchful and prepared is essential for the Lord will come “like a thief in the night.” Since the Rapture is signless, being alert is ever so critical, especially with the evil of which baffles me how there are people who scoff at it thinking it is no different from any other evil throughout history. By the way Sister, shouldn’t the image show five virgins with burning oil lamps?

    It was Breaking News last Saturday that the United States launched air strikes at three nuclear sites in Iran, despite the President’s claim that he will contemplate whether to do so in a couple weeks. This shows a very dangerous persona, especially one that is prone to going back on promises or make hasty decisions that serve only their interests instead of others’ views. Could this be somewhat of a “making up of time” since the UN Conference got postponed? Now with this occurrence, it is almost certain Iran will retaliate, which could lead to sudden terrorism on US soil and God forbid, another potential 9/11. I heard that the UN is calling for an immediate ceasefire so I bet we are very close to the Daniel Covenant, hopefully. I am also now very curious as to how soon they will reschedule the UN Conference in view of the strikes in order to bring about the covenant’s existence and success.
    People in Iran who opposed the regime were even sharply criticizing the strikes, saying that the President’s decision within two days was basically a cover-up and deception to make Iran have a false sense of security. How much more wicked could this all become?

    I used to think the Ezekiel war is one of those that precedes the Tribulation, but it would be on an unimaginable scale since post-rapture Earth will have Hell breaking loose everywhere.

    Especially with the ongoing raids and ever-increasing violence and hate, thinking about us going on for another year is almost like imposing suicide; therefore, we have to pray even stronger than before that the God will bring about the Rapture very soon. This very morning, I read on the news that ICE detained a veteran’s wife who was in the middle of breastfeeding their son - isn’t this really getting out of hand particularly during a very private moment? I feel that crying out to the Lord in prayer may be the only way to escape the Hell that this world is becoming, of course it is nowhere comparable to the real Hell yet.

    Also, I remember Governor Newsom passing an executive order to have state employees go back to the office at least four days a week citing and improved efficiency in productivity starting July 1st. This was back in March this year, but now with the ICE raids, the new COVID variant Nimbus, and ongoing and supposedly worsening spread of bird flu and measles, could this be a sign of allegiance with the New World Order (Devil’s agenda) to continue wiping out humanity as much as possible? Also think of the July 4 Biological Attack per the prior post - if it is true, then I pray that the Lord take us away real soon before a real-life apocalypse happens.

    You may have heard that Texas Governor Abbott signed a law requiring the Ten Commandments be displayed publicly in classrooms effective September 1st, but it is likely there will be legal battles to prevent it. Is it rare that politicians would favor displaying Christian resources in schools as if they truly believe in God the correct way? In other words, do politicians really believe that calling for God’s Word to be taught in schools would convince the public that they are pure hearted and righteous people?

    Keep close watch and remain on High Watch for the Rapture now that Summer has started. I really hope it will be before the Summer ends in view of how everything is now. Take care and Blessings from a Brother in Christ.

    1. I think, Brother, this can become much worse, more violent and wicked. Trump or any world leader is not to be trusted and of course they go back on their word.
      Like you, I don't believe that at the rate things are growing more and more evil and violent, we cannot possibly wait another year for the Lord's return. I cry out everyday for Him to come rescue His children, and I know He hears all our cries.
      Yes, I do believe they intend to unleash a new and more deadly pandemic, so yes, that would keep people home from work. Both my adult kids now work from home since Covid and they really don't wish to go back to the office. I think most people have gotten comfortable staying home. I don't believe this new deadly pandemic will be released until after we are gone. We may see the fringes of it, but that's all... because the Horses of the Apocalypse cannot be released until se get up to heaven.
      Yes, I heard about the Texas Governor's ruling regarding the 10 commandments. I have no idea his real motive and can only hope he is sincere, but I do think it's too little too late. Mankind is already too far gone to have the 10 commandments change them now. In fact, they've always had access to God's law in the Bible.
      Yes, we are on high watch, particularly after seeing what's happening in Israel. Stay close to Jesus, Brother!

  2. I feel it is ever so important that Believers be prepared nowadays since evil has reached an unprecedented level. I shall continue praying and acknowledging to the Lord to keep the Holy Spriit active within.

    I spoke with some people who were no doubt concerned about the wickedness in the evil, especially the Israel-Iran conflict, but they are still skeptical or even disbelieving that they symbolize the coming Rapture and Tribulation. They were even oblivious to the Beast Empire and how AI and other related sources are setting up for it. It makes me feel concerned that Believers would be unaware and such alarming signs are poorly understood - what hope could there be for these people? I am starting to feel discouraged about warning people with this message based on this statistic. What are your thoughts Sister? Would it take for a post-Rapture dystopia to finally convince people? Of course, the sad thing is most will still refuse to believe and repent and would continue to blaspheme God.

    1. MOST Christians have no idea about End times. The Truth of the End times is no longer taught in church or in seminary, so I'm not surprised at your friends' reactions. I run into the same here all the time. Don't be discouraged. Your job is only to warn people and tell them about Jesus. It's up to them what they do with that information. Just tell them and then pray for them and let God do the rest. And yes, I do believe that most of these people will be left behind and only then will they see the truth. Remember many many will get saved during the Tribulation!

  3. Greeting Precious scribe of the Most Holy Lord,

    What a wonderful thought Sister, " The Rapture Generation" ! Hallelujah !!!

    Reading through Heb 11 this morning with Old McGee he touched on something I'd never heard before. Concerning two types, Enoch and Noah.
    He said contrary to popular belief, he believed that Enoch was a type of Rapture. He called it the first Rapture. v 5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death, ( and I love this); he could not be found because God had taken him away !!! McGee said, Noah was a Tribulation type because Noah was able to save his family by bringing them through the great trial. V 7 By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear he built an ark to save his family.
    I do believe we need to "recharge" the presence of the Holy Spirit within us. I like to do this every morning. Or when we need a special anointing to witness, sometimes courage, or compassion for someone you may not really like, strength to face a trial etc. Seems to me that even Jesus when faced with trials would go and pray to His Father and come out recharge. Seems that Jesus went out from these prayers in power and authority.
    I dont think the Holy Spirit necessarily comes and goes after we've been filled. But it is us, we nead to "draw near to God" through our prayers and worship.
    Jude 1:20 But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit,
    2 Tim 1: 6For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands. 7For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
    I believe there are 3 important spiritual acts we should do daily; 1 Worship/praise, 2 bring our requests for ouselves and others to God, 3 pray for the anointing to be upon us. Maybe a 4th which I usually do somewhere between 1 and 2 repent !

    I think USA has set itself up to be attacked from within and out !

    Yes, in agreement with 1 thru 6, absolutely. Stay filled and close to Jesus.

    1. Yes, Brother. I've heard that about Noah and Enoch. Very interesting, eh? Noah goes through the flood! I've also heard that Lot is a type of tribulation saint as well. I didn't mean to say that the Holy Spirit comes and goes, but rather his influence shrinks or grows.. that might be a better way to say it, depending on our attitude toward God and our obedience to the Lord. For example if someone who is truly born again and baptized in the Holy Spirit watches pornography every night, then I'm thinking the Holy Spirit is shrinking and highly grieved. Is that person still saved? I would say yes.. .and I'm sure the Holy Spirit is convicting him and working on him to get him to come out of that vile addiction. There may come a point where he continually ignores the Spirit's conviction and promptings and keeps willfully sinning that the Holy Spirit leaves altogether and his salvation is on the line. But we are all in various stages in our walks with the Lord and each of us struggles with sin. The thing to look for is are we progressing? Are we allowing the Spirit to sanctify us and bearing some fruit? Sorry.. got off topic here a bit. LOL
      Yes, Agree about the anointing. We need that special anointing for different things God calls us to do. Good point! Blessings!

  4. Greetings Watchwoman of God,

    You may have heard just in the news that Israel and Iran agreed to a ceasefire. As soon as I heard the word ceasefire, I now instantly wonder what could be next: the Ezekiel War after a short time, or maybe fast forward to preparing the Daniel Covenant? Either way, we know that this ceasefire is merely a distraction for evil to prepare its next move while giving the world a false belief that the fighting is over. I have not seen the words “seven years” yet but do you think the Ezekiel War would come before that covenant and we may be gone before it gets signed?
    Regarding the covenant, do you believe we will not be around to hear of its signing? Then we may not know who the AntiChrist is but we may witness from Heaven perhaps? Also, does the UN Conference necessarily have to be the main observance of it? I am so yearning to know for this could be another sign that we are going home soon.

    I also heard that deported people have allegedly been moved to third-world countries instead of their native countries. The former could have even worse conditions and the deportees have like no say in opposing such a move. Therefore, they may even experience the unimaginable - do you think it is unfathomable how inhumane and sinister this is? We really have to pray and cry out to the Lord as much as possible for Him to get us out of here very soon before we get entrapped.

    I heard that some people at work were not feeling well and reported having sore throat as if it had a razor-blade feeling. That instantly made me think the COVID variant Nimbus because I read in a work email how this is a commonly reported symptom of the latest variant. Could it be starting up again and especially close to the proposed Biological Attack on July 4? It is no longer starting to seem coincidental anymore with these occurrences, isn’t it? Remember Event 201 was in October 2019 and COVID was discovered months later - I do not know if the July 4 “exercise” may turn out the same way or in a far more catch-off-guard approach. It was also possible that COVID as early as the Summer of 2019 since there were accounts of hospitals in China being at full capacity and parking lots filled up when they are normally like that in the summer. God forbid this is a wicked “history repeats itself” situation.

    Stay strong in God and stay safe when you go outside. Blessings and Come Quickly Lord Jesus/Maranatha!

    1. I believe the church is raptured at or around the time of the Ezekiel war but that's just my opinion. We need to be gone before the signing of the covenant because that will reveal who the AC is. But I'm reminded that God's ways are much higher than ours so we are all just making guesses based on Scripture. Either way, we are very close.. more later.. must run

    2. I hadn't heard about the deported people but I'm not surprised. Evil seems to be ruling this world at the moment. And yes, they are no doubt getting ready to unleash a new plandemic... been hearing about this razor throat thing for awhile, among other deadly diseases. But we do not need to fear their plans. The Lord will keep us safe throughout all of these attacks of the enemy. And if we die, who cares? We are going to heaven anyway. I feel more and more like a stranger in this place. Blessings!
