What If There Was No Delay?

I was up on my prayer walk this week, talking with the Lord, asking Him about all these passing Rapture High watch times and He brought to mind a few of His parables: The 10 Virgins in Matthew 25 and the Unfaithful Servant in Matthew 24. And I said, "Yeah, Lord, I know those stories. It says you delayed your coming but I know that's not what you do. Everything is set in the appointed time before you even made the Earth!"

And He said, "Yes very true, but have you ever thought about what would have happened to the 5 foolish virgins and the unfaithful servant IF THERE HAD BEEN NO DELAY?"

He had me on that one.  

I do not believe God delays anything. He's the God of Time and the God of appointments and throughout history and Scripture we see that He is always ON TIME. The problem lies with us feeble humans, because it can often appear that He is running late! How many times did His rescue or His answer to prayer come when people had just about given up and lost all hope. Look at Noah, Lot, the Israelites standing before the Red Sea, countless battles in the OT, Esther, etc...  

Okay, so we know God always comes at the last minute and in the nick of time!  But there's something far deeper here that I missed until now. Let's look at the unfaithful servant.  

Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. Assuredly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all his goods. But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming,’ and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards, the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is not aware of, and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.  Matthew 24:45-51 

Notice this servant was seemingly a faithful follower of Jesus. He was obviously looking and waiting for the Lord's return. Why? Because after awhile (probably after several missed High Watch Times), he figured Jesus was delaying His coming so he gets mad, goes back into the world and engages in fleshly endeavors. Notice also that he beats his fellow servants. In other words, he insults, belittles, leaves angry posts, and calls his fellow Christians names. (Sound familiar?)

Now, I ask you. What would have happened to this person if Jesus had come when he expected?  By all accounts, He would have been raptured and allowed into the wedding feast. But we see that his heart was not right. He was either not a true believer or he really didn't love the Lord at all or he was lukewarm. (Rev 3:16) He was only in it to be rescued, not because he loved the Lord.

But the Lord knew his heart!  Yes... hang in there with me...I'll get to that 

Then we have the 10 Virgins. 

Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.  But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. Matthew 25:1-5

Two things to note here

• The foolish virgins had oil in the lamps to begin with. Which means they had a portion of the Holy Spirit and were believers.
• ALL Ten fell asleep. In other words the time passed when they thought Jesus would come, so they got sleepy and drifted off.  

 And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’  Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.  And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’  But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’  And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut.
“Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ 

So, if the Lord had come when they expected, would all ten virgins have gone in? They all had oil in their lamps, right? (They were all saved, then, right?)  But since there was a "delay", the five virgins who really weren't following the Lord and really didn't love Him ran out of the Holy Spirit. They got frustrated, angry and their light was going out, a symbol of the Holy Spirit within them shrinking because of their stinking attitude. So while they went back into the world, the Lord came.  

So, this is what I'm trying to say and what I believe the Lord showed me.

This delay is only a perceived delay to us. The Lord already knows exactly when He's coming. But there's a purpose to this perceived delay. It is to further refine His Bride, to get rid of those people who truly don't love Jesus and who truly aren't following Him. They are the tares among the wheat, and they look just like the wheat, but their hearts are not right with the Lord.

Now, of course the Lord already knows their hearts and He could just not take them in the rapture, but how would they know and understand what had gone wrong if the delay had not proven their hearts? In other words, when they were left behind, they would be confused about why. They wouldn't understand and they would probably lose what little faith they had. This way, when they turned away and went back into the world,  they will have no excuse for being left behind. They will know right away and hopefully, fully repent.

Hence, I believe this "delay" is the final time of testing for the Bride, a final test to see who really loves Jesus with all their hearts and who is just in love with the idea of the rapture but whose heart belongs to this world. 

Don't you think that when that door closes and these people find themselves left here, there will not be much weeping and gnashing of teeth?  Don't be one of these unfaithful servants. Yes, it's very hard to wait and harder still to be constantly disappointed.

But Jesus will return on the Exact Day and Hour He has already chosen. Do I know how long this perceived delay is? No. But after the past two "rapture dates" passing, my bet is that most of the people who were going to walk away, already have!

Our job is to be faithful to Him, love Him, follow Him, and no matter what happens here on Earth or how long we have to wait, to never stop earnestly and expectantly looking for Him! 

NEWS 

Like I said, I'm cutting way back on news. I just find little to no interest in it anymore. If you're on my Telegram channel, you're keeping up with it anyway. However, there were a few important developments this week, which I'm sure all of you are very aware. 

Peace Plan

 

President Trump is expected to arrive in Israel on Sunday and address the Knesset.

Here are the details of the plan

- Phase 1 (Hostage Release & Initial Ceasefire): Focuses on EXCHANGING ISRAELI HOSTAGES (estimated 48 remaining, with fewer than half believed alive) for approximately 250 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences and 1,700 others detained since October 2023. 

Israel would initiate a partial withdrawal to a "YELLOW LINE" as seen in the above ⬆️ image. (Within 24 hours after the deal was ratified. Apparently the Israeli government ratified the deal early their morning on the 10th around 1:30 AM )

Phase 1 of the Gaza peace plan is scheduled for a FULL MILITARY CEASEFIRE to begin at around October 11th at 1:20 AM as stipulated in the U.S.-brokered 20-point proposal. 

Humanitarian aid access would surge immediately. This 1st phase is designed to LAST UP TO 42 days but MIGHT HAVE BEEN ACCELERATED through today’s negotiations.

Negotiations for Phase 2 specifics (withdrawal timelines, demilitarization standards) are mandated to begin on Day 16 of Phase 1. (10/26-10/27 timeframe)

The 2nd phase is scheduled to begin November 21, 2025, approximately 42 days after the Phase 1 ceasefire activation on October 10, 2025—PROVIDED PHASE 1 negotiations conclude successfully and NO EXTENSIONS ARE NEEDED FOR HOSTAGE LOGISTICS. 

This timeline aligns with the plan's structure, where Phase 1's 42-day window allows for initial withdrawals and aid surges while parallel talks finalize Phase 2 details. 

Based on the information available, U.S. President Donald Trump stated that he expects the Israeli hostages held by Hamas to be released as early as MONDAY, October 13, or TUESDAY, October 14, 2025. 

The ceasefire agreement, which went into effect early Friday morning at 1:20am, October 10, 2025, requires Hamas to release ALL REMAINING HOSTAGES  (both living and deceased) within 72 hours of the ceasefire's start. 

This timeline aligns with Trump's expectation, as 72 hours from early Friday would fall around late Sunday, October 12, or early Monday, October 13. 

However, given the FLUID SITUATION, LOGISTICAL and COMPLIANCE CHALLENGES WITHIN GAZA; the RELEASE COULD EASILY EXTEND to Tuesday, October 14. 

Israel will not withdraw to the second withdrawal line in Gaza until Hamas is dismantled from its core, this is part of the agreement, so in practice it will become a kind of Area C in Gaza, under Israeli control, without enemy nationals (53%).
 
Start Date for Phase 2

The second phase is scheduled to begin November 20, 2025, approximately 42 days after the Phase 1 ceasefire activation on October 9, 2025—provided Phase 1 negotiations conclude successfully and no extensions are needed for hostage logistics. 

Mediators aim to prevent resumption of FIGHTING during these talks, even if they extend beyond Phase 1's end. If delays occur (e.g., due to locating deceased hostages' remains), Phase 2 could shift to early December 2025, but current momentum suggests adherence to the November 20 target. 

 My personal opinion is that this is the FOUNDATION for the Daniel 9:27 Covenant. Until we see the exact timing of 7 years and/or any stipulation that the Temple will be rebuilt, I'm holding off on believing this is the Exact covenant that the Antichrist signs. However, it is very exciting to be seeing this happening right before our eyes, and it definitely means we are very close to going home! 

Comet Atlas 3

This incoming comet is drawing much attention. Apparently NASA shut down the cameras on mars as the comet passed. Why?  Many people are posting individual videos of the thing acting quite odd. Is this a real comet? A fallen angel? or a spaceship? The Lord said we would see signs in the sky as the day of His return approached. Personally, I haven't had the time to look into this, but I do think the timing is very very interesting.

Here's an article that might interest you.

Digital ID 

 “17 countries have rolled out or passed digital ID laws in the last 3 months:

-EU
-UK
-Laos
-China
-Taiwan
-Mexico
-Zambia
-Canada
-Ethiopia
-Thailand
-Vietnam
-Australia
-Costa Rica
-Switzerland
-Papua New Guinea

Totally just a coincidence I’m sure.”

This is the Beast System tied with the Mark of the Beast…mRNA vaccines 

  Please watch the short video below regarding Canadian Bill C-8 which will jail people for saying the wrong thing: Click to Blog to view

Introduced on October 1, Bill C-8 in Canada will effectively end people’s lives on demand. If you say the 'wrong thing', the government will be able to immediately cut your internet and telephone.

This of course means people can’t access online banking, pay bills electronically, or live any type of ‘normal’ life, not to mention crippling their ability to organize politically online.

With the purchase of TikTok from Larry Ellison, X being owned by the same usual suspects and every single government simply refusing to listen to the will of the people, I would say Agenda 2030 is in full swing. 

Apostasy/Deception

 I mentioned NAR in my Wednesday Post. Here's some rather disturbing statistics

 

2024 survey indicates 41% of US Christians adhere to the NARs 7MM doctrine—and with the recent events regarding Charlie Kirk, this number is likely now higher than previously recorded

Kirk was an advocate of the 7MM through his work with TPUSA, which was launched to mobilize young Christians to "take back" American culture. He pushed for domination of the "mountains" of govt., education, and media; tying it to the broader MAGA movement

Kirk spoke at Lance Wallnau’s (NAR) events, such as the 2022 “Courage Tour,” framing politics as a spiritual battleground where believers needed to “occupy” power to advance God’s kingdom

Kirk’s calls for dismantling church and state separation ties directly into the 7MM playbook, which covertly advocates for less Gospel and more “conquest…”

Interestingly, Alice Bailey (in a publication titled Hierarchy of Light) seems to also be advocating for a type of “world upliftment” that is achieved by taking control of these same 7 spheres of influence

Amazing how it all connects

Have a Blessed Weekend!
