The Three Days of Darkness

As I have written about recently in my article about the Many Revelations Concerning September 2025 Rapture, the resurrection of the dead, which includes the rapture of the Bride of Christ is imminent, and all indications point to it actually happening this month during the Feast of Trumpets on September 23rd or 24th. 

However, immediately before the rapture, there will be three days of darkness that will occur globally, and you must prepare yourself for this time, especially spiritually, because it will be a terrifying darkness that can be felt, as God allows demons to be unleashed upon the earth.

Here is what the prophet Isaiah prophesied about this period immediately preceding the rapture:

“But your dead will live, LORD; their bodies will rise— let those who dwell in the dust wake up and shout for joy— your dew is like the dew of the morning; the earth will give birth to her dead. Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by. See, the LORD is coming out of his dwelling to punish the people of the earth for their sins. The earth will disclose the blood shed on it; the earth will conceal its slain no longer.” (Isa 26:19-21) 

In this passage, Isaiah speaks of the resurrection of the dead, and the rapture, as well as the fall of planet earth.  Let's look at each one of those things separately:

Resurrection of the Dead

“But your dead will live, LORD; their bodies will rise— let those who dwell in the dust wake up and shout for joy… the earth will give birth to her dead…”

That's pretty clear, and does not require any explanation. This is the moment when the dead in Christ, followed by the living saints, will be changed suddenly in the twinkling of an eye.

"Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality." (1Co 15:51-53)

All the saints who are ready -- the Bride of Christ, will receive our glorified bodies. Our natural bodies will be transformed to be like the glorious body of Jesus. As Paul said:

"But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body." (Php 3:20-21).

Are you eagerly awaiting our Savior from heaven, the Lord Jesus Christ?

Rapture

The expression, “your dew is like the dew of the morning” seems to be a reference to both the resurrection of the dead and the rapture of the living saints, since dew evaporates and rises to the sky when the sun comes up. It disappears from the earth. Likewise, the bodies of the dead in Christ and those of the living saints who are ready will disappear from the earth, as we rise to meet the Lord in the air, just as the apostle Paul explained in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, indicating that the rapture (Gr. harpazo, catching away) of the living saints will occur right after the dead are raised. He wrote:

"For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." (1Th 4:16-17) 

Three Days of Darkness

Isaiah also prophesied about the three days of darkness in that same context regarding the resurrection of the dead and the rapture. He wrote: 

“Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by. See, the LORD is coming out of his dwelling to punish the people of the earth for their sins.” (Isa 26:20).

This will be like the plague of darkness that happened right before the exodus of Israel, except this one will occur right before the exodus of the Church: 

“Then the LORD said to Moses, ‘Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that darkness spreads over Egypt—darkness that can be felt.’ So Moses stretched out his hand toward the sky, and total darkness covered all Egypt for three days. No one could see anyone else or move about for three days. Yet all the Israelites had light in the places where they lived.” (Exo 10:21-23).

Back to the passage in Isaiah now. During this time, as Isaiah said, the saints must go inside their houses, shut the doors behind them, hiding ourselves for a little while (three days) until the wrath of God has passed. This is the only period of God's wrath that we will experience, which is actually the birth pains leading up to the rapture that will be followed immediately by the Great Tribulation, a seven-year period of terrible suffering on earth during which God's judgments and wrath will be poured out.

Isaiah 26:19 in the Greek Septuagint version (LXX) it says literally: resurrect the dead and rise (arise) in the tomb and celebrate (cheer) in the earth; the for dew the from (by, alongside) of you (your) healing (remedy) he (him) be though (while) earth the irreverent fall.

Now let me translate that...

Here is my own personal and very literal translation: "Resurrect the dead and arise in the tomb and celebrate (cheer) in the earth; for your dew is healing him while the irreverent earth falls." 

Deep AI Labs translation of the koine Greek (much better than mine): “The dead will rise, and those in the tombs will be raised, and those on earth will rejoice, for the dew from above will be their healing, but the earth of the ungodly will fall. The earth of the wicked shall fall.” 

That is what Isaiah prophesied in 26:19, according to the Greek translation of the Old testament known as the Septuagint.  

Videos

Please don't think this is a myth, because it's not. See these videos below on the three days of darkness that will happen right before the rapture. So if the rapture occurs this month on Sept 23rd or 24th as all signs indicate it will, making it a "high watch period," then the 3 days of darkness would immediately precede that time. So please prepare. If you are traveling, it would be wise to plan to be back home to be with your family BEFORE the three days of darkness begins, so that you can help them through this terrifying time of testing for the saints, as well as the world.

I also listened to the video testimony of sister Hlengiwe Mchunu on the Centtwinz TV, which was outstanding. This sister in Christ testified that the Lord told her during the first week of January 2024 that the rapture would happen on September 23rd or 24th of 2025, but she didn't tell anyone until now. In fact, she had not heard anything about the testimony of brother Joshua Mhlakela until two weeks prior to her interview on this program. And when someone first told her about it, she didn't want to see it, because she was still fighting with God about knowing the season of the rapture, and was herself very skeptical of what she had heard about brother Joshua. But she said that after she watched his testimony, then she knew this was from the Lord and that she had to come out and disclose what the Lord had shown her last year. Key parts of the interview are at the following time stamps in the video: 35:00 - 42:48 and 52:47 - 57:10, as well as 59:52 - 1:01:18.  

DO NOT go outside during the three days of darkness, as the enemy will have things to bait people into going outside, so they can be attacked and possibly killed. Stay inside with the doors locked and windows covered. Spend time in worship and prayer, rejoicing, watching and praying, and do not open the door for anyone, not even black-eyed children (demons in disguise) pretending to need help.

I have also created a playlist, and will add more to it as I go along, so you can check this link later in case I have added more to these above four. Link to playlist.

I hope you will take time to read my previously mentioned article on the Many Revelations Concerning September 2025 Rapture, which highlights 34 compelling confirmations that the rapture of the Bride of Christ may occur this month on the 23rd or 24th. I made a short video introducing this article that has received thousands of views by the grace of God, which you can find here at this link. And I encourage you to read the related articles about the converging events like the Seven-year Peace Deal at September UN Summit and the signs indicating that the time of Jacob's Trouble About to Be Fulfilled, also known as the Great Tribulation.

Scriptures

In addition to what I have already shared from Isaiah, 1 Thessalonians, and 1 Corinthians, here are some additional Scriptures to consider:

Jesus said, "Immediately after the distress of those days "'the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.'" (Mat 24:29)

"But in those days, following that distress, "'the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;" (Mar 13:24)

"'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" (Act 2:17-21)

Closing Words

Look up, saints, for your redemption draws near!

I recommend that you please take this article with all of the other prophecies and revelations to the Lord in prayer, and ask Him to confirm to you for yourself whether they are from Him or not. Let's not be like the Sadducees and Pharisees, whom Jesus criticized as hypocrites, because they could not interpret the signs of the times, even though they could discern weather patterns in the sky (Mt 16:3; Luke 12:56).

We should always be ready for Jesus' return at any time, watching, praying, and keeping our lamps burning (see video); but I think these many confirmations should put us all on high alert for the rapture this September. I am not saying the rapture will occur in September, although I think the probability is extremely high that He will do so. In fact, I think the chances of the rapture not occurring this year are approaching zero, and I would be very surprised if it doesn't happen. I sense in my spirit, as most of us do, that the time of the rapture is very near, and certainly hope it happens this fall.

Whether you believe it or not, one thing is for sure -- Jesus is coming back soon! You need to get your life right with Jesus right now. Give your life to Jesus before the rapture happens and before the Great Tribulation begins. Repent and return to the Lord with fasting and prayer, seeking His face with all your heart, proving your repentance by your deeds.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
