THE GREAT VISITATION
Dear brethren:
May
the Grace, the Shalom and the mercy of our God and Lord YESHUA HaMashiach be with you, your household and your congregation.
The
following message is very important to all congregations and believers in our
Lord YESHUA.
We are
talking about the "Glory of the Lord" visiting the congregations.
"Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in Yhuh your
God: for he hath given you the former rain
moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the
rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month." Joel 2:23
Yes
brothers, we will receive the "latter rain" and we will see the Glory
of our God, but: Are we ready for that? Do we know that the Glory can also mean
judgment?
We
need to know that the greater the Glory, the more severe the judgment can be!
In the
Holy Scriptures we see many examples of that, starting in the Garden of Eden,
when Adam was living in the presence of God (in His Glory) sinned, and he
received a severe judgment.
"… cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;" Genesis
3:17b
Also
in the times of Moses we see how the Lord judged Nadab and Abiu
when the Glory of the Lord was in the Tabernacle that Moses built in the
desert.
"And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of
Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire
therein, and put incense thereon, and offered strange fire before Yhuh, which
he commanded them not. And there went out fire from Yhuh, and devoured them,
and they died before Yhuh." Leviticus 10:1-2
Later,
when the Glory of the Lord was in the Temple in Jerusalem, Israel received a
severe judgment and was sent to Babylon.
"And this whole land shall be a desolation,
and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon
seventy years." Jeremiah 25:11
And in
the early days with the discíples we also see judgment, Ananias and Safira were
judged for their lie, when there was a great anointing over the congregation.
"And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the
ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things." Acts 5:5
After
reading these three examples, we cannot ignore the judgment that can also come
with the blessing.
Now,
we are expecting a visitation, like the Word says…
The King will came in to see the guests.
(Matthew 22:11a)
And
wherever the King is His Glory will be. The Scriptures tell us how much we will
be blessed when the King will come in.
Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun,
and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the
day that Yhuh bindeth up the breach of his people,
and healeth the stroke of their wound. Isaiah
30:26
And the glory of Yhuh shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it
together: for the mouth of Yhuh hath spoken it. Isaiah 40:5
Then shall the righteous shine forth as the
sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear. Mathew
13:43
But
this Glory will also come with judgment, as it is written:
"And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a
man which had not on a wedding garment: And he saith
unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not
having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 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 22:11-13
We
need to repent and separate our lives from all iniquities and uncleanness, live
a holy life, and wear the "wedding garment" as the Lord did to Joshua
the high priest.
"And he answered and spake unto
those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him.
And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine
iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of
raiment." Zechariah 3:4
Only
after that we can stand in the presence of the King of Glory. Dear brothers, I
warn the congregations to be prepared to receive the Glory of the Lord, it is
our responsibility to speak truth, and the truth is that we are not ready. If
the Glory of the Lord would come today, there will be many
causalities.
We
need urgently to bring again the message of repentance, holiness, purity and
fear of God for the congregation to be ready to receive the King of Glory.
Time
is short.
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather
out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be
wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the righteous shine
forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear,
let him hear. Mathew 13:40-43
So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come
forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, And
shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing
of teeth. Mathew 13:49-50
YESHUA is coming soon, Get Ready!
In the Love of YESHUA HaMashiach
Note:
Unless otherwise indicated the verses from the Bible are in "light blue" and taken from the translation called "The King
James Version 1769", the literal translations are in "dark blue", the Name YESHUA has been kept in his original Hebrew
form, the Greek word Christos has been kept as Messiah his real meaning.
(*) The expression "the LORD" has been kept
also in his original form of four letters Yhuh where "U" is a
"long U", this is the transliteration of the Hebrew letter "Vav", that YESHUA in His big mercy has revealed to us
was the old way of pronouncing.
