TOPIC: It’s Not A Fantasy (Rhapsody of Realities 12 October 2024)
Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed (1 Corinthians 15:51-52).
Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:
The Rapture of the Church is going to happen suddenly, any time soon, and I hope you’re getting yourself ready. People will be going about their daily routines and then, suddenly, as quickly as you can blink your eyes, everyone who’s born again will check out of this world. That’s how fast it will be!
Look at the description in 1 Thessalonians 4:16: “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first.” There’ll be two trumpet sounds; the first sound, only Christians who have died will hear and come back to life. Then, the second trumpet sound will follow, which is the last one. At the sound of that last trumpet, the Bible says, “Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air.”

The Lord will descend from heaven, but He won’t touch down on the earth; instead, He will wait in the air, and we will be caught up to meet Him. All this will happen in a moment. We will be transformed from terrestrial to celestial beings, and then we’re gone; out of this world.
Imagine the headlines after we’re out of here: “They are gone!” The media will be in chaos, trying to find answers and figure out where we’ve disappeared to. But the answers are in the Bible. At that moment, those who’d be left behind would realize what a terrible mistake they had made for not believing in Jesus.
Now is the time to serve the Lord passionately and love Him with all your heart. Everything we leave behind; all the material possessions, the gold, diamonds, trinkets, credit cards, houses, money, etc., that wasn’t used for the Gospel prior to that time, will all become meaningless. This is not a fantasy; it’s a reality that’s going to happen, and it could happen at any moment.
Live in readiness, with your heart set on things above, and not on the fleeting treasures of this world. Live your best, and be your best for Jesus Christ, steadfast and unmoveable, diligently doing the work of the Lord.
CONFESSION
My heart is focused on the Lord and His soon return; therefore I live in readiness, doing the work of the Lord with faith, hope and love. I’m empowered by the Spirit to share the Gospel and prepare others for the Rapture. Amen.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 AMPC: For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud cry of summons, with the shout of an archangel, and with the blast of the trumpet of God. And those who have departed this life in Christ will rise first. Then we, the living ones who remain [on the earth], shall simultaneously be caught up along with [the resurrected dead] in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so always (through the eternity of the eternities) we shall be with the Lord Therefore comfort and encourage one another with these words.
