Since January 2020, we have seen 3 of the End Times biblical prophecy dramatically played out before us. The fact we are now at home as per Government ‘lock down’, ‘staying safe’ speaks volumes. The parable of the 5 wise and the 5 foolish virgins come to mind readily as I hear the Spirit of God asking the question, are you prepared for the return of the Lord? The Matt 25, parable trumpet’s the Bridegroom’s return. Ecclesia are you
fully clothed and are your lamps trimmed and burning with oil, do you have oil to spare, as the 5 wise virgins had? The Bible has given us pointed and clear projections for everyday living and this present COVID-19 reality is no surprise if you have been paying attention and tuning in to heavens’ forecasts. Jesus gave us a sequence of the events that will take place at the very end of the end times. They are as follows...
Schedule of End Time events as stated by Jesus in Matthew 24
1. Wars Matthew 24:7 “For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.” Over the last 100 years the whole world has been at war as many as two times. More recently we’ve seen many conflicts starting with 9:11 and continued with what was dubbed ‘The Arab Spring’. 2. Natural disasters that bring Famine/Scarcity Matthew 24:7 “And there will be famines…” Take note of the natural disasters like the forest fires we’ve been seeing recently in Australia and California USA and Locusts infestations as seen in Kenya. These fires are caused by an increase in droughts. Drought causes crops to fail which then causes famine. 3. Pestilence and disease of pandemic proportions Matthew 24:7 “...pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.” Covid 19 is the pestilence that prevails as we write this article. Many countries around the world, are in total to pertial shutdown.
4. Persecutions and martyrdom Matthew 24:9 & 21 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake… For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.” This is yet to come and is the one Jesus chose to elaborate on the most. 5. Cosmic fallout Matthew 24:29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” We ‘look up’ as we know these are yet to come and ‘our redemption is near.’
