Home

In this blog, I report on signs of the times indicating the soon return of our Lord Jesus Christ to collect His holy, righteous, and pure Bride. I also provide prophetic revelations and teaching on the topic.

As the Scripture says,

"When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.' And in the morning, 'There will be a storm today, for the sky is red and threatening.' Do you know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but cannot discern the signs of the times?" (Mat 16:2-3)

We must not be like the religious leaders of Jesus' day, who could not discern the signs of the times. Instead, we must be like the sons of Issachar spoken of in the Bible, who understood the signs of the times, and knew what their nation should do (1 Chr 12:32).

"But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. "And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. And He will send forth His angels with a great trumpet and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other. Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near; so, you too, when you see all these things, recognize that He is near, right at the door. (Mat 24:29-33)

Some of the topics covered include the rapture, signs in the sun, moon, and stars, the antichrist, the mark of the beast, persecution, martyrdom, repentance, preparation, the judgment of God, and His wrath upon the wicked.

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.

The Lord Told Woman the Rapture is September 2025

As I have written about recently in my article about the Many Revelations Concerning September 2025 Rapture, 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. That makes it a high watch period for the saints who are eagerly awaiting and longing for the Lord's return.

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.  

Scriptures
"'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." (Act 2:17-18)

"Do not quench the Spirit. Do not treat prophecies with contempt but test them all; hold on to what is good, reject every kind of evil." (1Th 5:19-22)

The rapture is taught in Scripture. Here are just a few of the verses that speak about this time when God will send His angels to "catch away" or "snatch up" (Greek, harpazo) the saints:

"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)

Closing Words
I recommend that you please take all of this to the Lord in prayer, and ask Him to confirm to you whether or not it means the rapture will occur in September 2025. 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 are certainly significant warnings that 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. 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 soonYou 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.

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 their 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, hide themselves 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) 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. She saw the days of darkness in a vision and speaks about that toward the last part of the interview. 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 is 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 soonYou 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.

Must the Man of Sin Be Revealed Before the Rapture?

Does the man of sin have to be revealed before the Rapture? Many people argue that he must be revealed beforehand, and that the rapture cannot occur until he is revealed, because the apostle Paul wrote: "Don't let anyone deceive you in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion occurs and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the man doomed to destruction." (2Th 2:3).

The word revealed is the Greek verb apokalupto, related to the Greek noun apokalupsis found in the book of Revelation 1:1, which is an unveiling. What kind of unveiling or uncovering of a hidden mystery was the book of Revelation? It is a supernatural one of the Spirit that the Father gave to Jesus to show His servants, and which Jesus sent His angel to tell John, in order to pass that along to the Lord's servants. It was not a news story broadcast to the world, but a supernatural apokalupsis. 

Therefore, we must understand what Paul meant when he said the man of lawlessness must first be revealed (v. apokalupto) before we are gathered to the Lord. Some try to make this passage be about the Second Coming of the Lord at the end of the Great Tribulation, interpreting it that way so as to mean that by that point in time, obviously the antichrist has been revealed. But I don't see it that way. I see it like this. What is the criteria that must be met in order for the man of sin to be "revealed"? Does it have to be broadcast on the news that this is the antichrist? Does he have to come out on CNN wearing a name tag that says, "So-and-so the antichrist"? Or is it something else less obvious to the whole world, but known and recognized by the saints with ears to hear and eyes to see? I think it is the latter, something totally supernatural like the way the book of Revelation was given (eg.., through a vision or even dreams).

Has the antichrist been revealed already? I believe he definitely has through many visions and dreams. For example, many have received revelations from God that Barack Obama is the antichrist, which I've written about here. Moreover, others have received a revelation that it is a man from the Middle East from a Muslim country, and brother Joshua Mhlakela of South Africa got the revelation in a vision from God that it is Mohammad Bin Salman (MBS), the crown prince of Saudi Arabia (see here). 

Furthermore, the other question is when does this revelation have to occur to fulfill what Paul stated in 2 Thessalonians 2:3? Does it have to occur weeks or months beforehand? I believe it has already been revealed, but in terms of a more public way that more people will recognize, what if that were to happen the day of the rapture or the day before? What if the man of lawlessness were to be in the news immediately before or on the day of the rapture, having signed a 7-year peace treaty for Israel and Palestine? 

The advantage of this timing and method demonstrates the wisdom of God. The naysaying, apostate Christians with a mere form of godliness, who deny the power of God (2 Timothy 3:5), who say that the rapture cannot happen yet, since the man of sin has not been revealed, are not aware that God has already revealed it to His servants according to Amos 3:7, as I have already stated. And secondly they have not stopped to consider that the antichrist could be revealed immediately before the rapture, while they are going about their routine business, before they have a chance to receive news of it, until it is too late for them, because they have already missed the rapture. That is exactly what I believe will happen. 

As I have already written about, Macron announced earlier this month that he and Crown Prince Bin Salman will co-chair the Two-State Solution conference at the upcoming UN Summit in NYC the week of September 23rd, right during the period when the rapture is supposed to occur, according to Many Revelations Concerning the September 2025 Rapture, and they will sign a 7-year peace treaty. If Bin Salman is the antichrist, as brother Joshua says the Lord showed him in a vision, then that would fulfill 2 Thessalonians 2:3 in a more public way, which may be so late that the naysayers will not realize it in time, and they will be stuck having to endure the Great Tribulation. 

Paul goes on to say in that passage (2 Thes 2:3) that the one who holds back or restrains must continue to restrain the secret power of lawlessness that has actively been working diabolically in the world since the first century, so that he is revealed only at the proper time of GOD's choosing, not the choosing of the antichrist. The restrainer is the Holy Spirit in the Bride of Christ, and when He is removed, then the antichrist will be fully revealed to everyone, but I think he has already been revealed through the Lord's servants to the saints who are watching and listening, and that he will be more publicly revealed at the very last moments before the rapture, such as the day before the rapture (or the same day), as we are seeing play out in the news right now. and about which I have written in my article, Seven-year Peace Deal at September UN Summit.

Closing Words
In closing, I think this completely demolishes the argument that many are making that the rapture cannot occur this month or at any point until the man of sin is revealed, and it puts the naysayers on notice, who are using that argument to deny the imminence of the Lord's soon return.

I recommend that you please take this to the Lord in prayer, and ask Him to confirm to you for yourself whether what I am saying is from Him or not. The Holy Spirit will be faithful to reveal it to you, if you humble yourself and ask the Lord, according to Jeremiah 29:13 and 33:3. 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 soonYou 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.

“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.

Rapture Dream Confirming September 23rd - 24th 2025

My adult son Christopher, who has known the Lord since he was little, recently prayed to ask the Lord for his own personal confirmation about whether the rapture is going to happen this month during the Feast of Trumpets between September 23rd and 24th, as so many revelations from the Lord all over the world have been pointing to. 

In answer to his prayers, here is the confirmation he received on September 3rd. He said, "Basically, in the dream I was watching a video depicting the rapture, and when it showed the person getting raptured, he was standing facing a sunset over the water. And as he went up with his hands lifted, he had on a white robe, and he lit up very brightly. Down in the lower righthand corner of the video screen, it had a caption that said, 'September 24.'"

I hope you will take time to read my 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, as well as 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.

Closing Words
Look up, saints, for your redemption draws near!

There are numerous other revelations that also point to the rapture happening this fall. And Scripture says that everything must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.  

I recommend that you please take this confirmation and 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 soonYou 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.

Rapture September 2025 Confirmed Twice!

A brother in Christ named Bobby Carlton posted a video on his Youtube channel on September 2nd, 2025, testifying about how the Lord had confirmed to him personally that what South African brother Joshua Mhlakela said the Lord showed him in 2018 is really true about the rapture happening on September 23rd or 24th of 2025. I will link to Bobby's video here (start at 6:05 and watch on 1.75x speed), which had previously been removed, so I will give you a brief summary of it, in case it gets removed again. 

Bobby heard brother Joshua's testimony, which I have written about in my article called Many Revelations Concerning September 2025 Rapture, so he decided to pray and ask the Lord for a confirmation. He asked the Lord that if what Joshua says is truly from God that the Lord would let him open his Bible with his eyes closed and point to a verse about the end times. So he randomly opened his Bible with his eyes closed and put his finger on the page. When he opened his eyes, his finger was on Zech 14:1 about a day of the Lord, which says, "A day of the LORD is coming, Jerusalem, when your possessions will be plundered and divided up within your very walls." (Zec 14:1). In his Bible, right above the verse, the section beginning with that verse is titled something like "The Coming Day of the Lord". So he took that as a confirmation, because he normally doesn't read from his big Bible, but from a digital one on his phone, and he has not read Zechariah in years. His Bible is like 1,000 pages or more, so he knew that this was no coincidence that he opened right to that passage immediately after praying as he did.

Later he prayed again and did the same thing, but this time as he opened the Bible, he felt like the Lord was telling him to let it open right where his left thumb was holding the pages on the left side. When he did so and pointed to a verse, it opened to Exodus in the very passage about the exodus of the Israelites.  His finger was pointing to a heading that said, "The Beginning of Exodus" right above the chapter. He felt that was another confirmation, since the Lord had told Joshua that the "exodus" of the Bride of Christ would occur in the year when Israel celebrates their 77th anniversary from 1948.

Here is a comment that Bobby's daughter (@rooneytooney0925) wrote in the comments section below his video:

"Ladies and Gentlemen this is my Dad.

I have had my own personal confirmations. A few weeks ago like many people of course probably, I have had rapture anxiety being afraid I am not going to make it. So I asked the Lord to give me a confirmation from his word that I'm going to be okay and that I'm going to go when the rapture happens. Whenever I opened up my Bible I sat it down on my living room table with my eyes shut and continued to asked the Lord that. Then I looked down and my eye caught the following scripture.

Jeremiah 30:7 KJV
Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

So I was encouraged by that. Then on Sunday August 27, I was on my way to church that morning and I looked right in front of me at the car in front of me and it had a temporary license plate tag that said September 24th 2025. To me I look at that as a confirmation because what are the odds that I would get behind a vehicle that said that.

So then later on that day, I went grocery shopping and I thought to myself that would be so neat if God confirmed to me with a second confirmation by having my groceries come out to as a total as one of those dates. And I kid you not, my total came out to $9.23.

You can call me crazy for believing that God confirmed that he is coming in those ways. But please be kind and respectful with your comments. All ugly and negative comments will be deleted

Maranatha! The Lord is coming very soon!"

Another person (@rainescook7533) left a written comment in response to Bobby's video stating:

"I've been patiently praying for a confirmation about Joshua's prophecy for weeks and nothing. After hearing you [Bobby] say you receive words from the Lord this way, I was led to do the same. I paused your video, grabbed my Bible out of my nightstand, and [randomly] opened it to Amos 3:6 (the first words on the page I opened to): 'The alarm has sounded, listen and fear! For I, the Lord, am sending disaster into your land. But always, first of all, I warn you through my prophets. This I now have done." [Amos 3:6-7]. I was floored. My eyes were glued to the word "always" in verse 7 and I thought of Joshua. I'll see you guys soon."
[End of comment]
------------

Wow! Amazing. That's the famous verse from Amos that we've been quoting with regard to the Lord showing the rapture season to brother Joshua and countless people around the world in advance of the rapture. The verse in the NIV states it like this: "When a trumpet sounds in a city, do not the people tremble? When disaster comes to a city, has not the LORD caused it? Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets." (Amo 3:6-7)

Another viewer (@89633) wrote:  

"I also did the same thing. [At] midnight [I] prayed [for an] open Bible confirmation, and I opened to 2 Kings 2 verse 2 about Elisha and Elijah."
[End of comment]
---------

The verse says, "Elijah said to Elisha, 'Stay here; the LORD has sent me to Bethel.' But Elisha said, 'As surely as the LORD lives and as you live, I will not leave you.' So they went down to Bethel." (2Ki 2:2). 

Note that this verse in 2 Kings 2:2 is about the time when Elijah was about to be taken up to heaven in a whirlwind in his own personal rapture.

Another viewer (@connien1010), who's a new believer, wrote this:

"As I started this video, and heard you say that you opened your Bible and prayed that God will give you a sign that if this is true, [you would] open up to a passage that confirms this, I did the exact same thing. I prayed, closed my eyes, and opened up to Psalm 45; and my eyes fixated to verses 13-17!!!!

[It says,] 'The bride, a princess, looks glorious in her golden gown. In her beautiful robes, she is led to the king, accompanied by her bridesmaids. What a joyful and enthusiastic procession as they enter the king’s palace! Your sons will become kings like their father. You will make them rulers over many lands. I will bring honor to your name in every generation. Therefore, the nations will praise you forever and ever.' I started bawling immediately. I’ve been asking for a sign clear as day for so long, and never received it until now ❤ WE ARE GOING HOME THIS MONTH!!!!!😭

Also a little bit of backstory about me , I never even owned a Bible until 11 months ago! I have been going to church for 10 months, and haven’t even made my way through the entire Bible yet, and haven’t even read Psalms yet; but God led to me to it and confirmed!!!! 🎺 👼🏻

Another lady (@chrystalneff273) wrote:

"That's right brother. I was praying when I was mowing grass on Saturday afternoon, and I asked the Lord to give me confirmation. Then a yellow butterfly appears and starts flying around me😊. When I first got saved, I saw butterflies a couple different times when I was praying, so I started to relate butterflies with the Holy Spirit. Many times, I'm praying, and a butterfly appears out of nowhere. I know it is God."

Closing Words
Those were some amazing confirmations that Bobby and his daughter received, and that others also received, who were inspired by him to ask God for their own confirmations.  I read through the comments when the original video was still available, before it was removed, and most of the comments were very positive and uplifting like the ones above, several of which I included in this article above. Fortunately I had already sent the above comments to a few family and friends before the video got deleted. Before I found out it was deleted, I was telling my son that this would actually make an interesting article of its own, but now I see that the Lord was leading me to write an article about it to preserve the truly encouraging content that was in it and the comments about it. 

One person who had read my email with the content that's now in this article replied aptly saying, "This is genuinely remarkable. It is difficult to refute the perspectives of these individuals." That's so true!

I hope this has blessed you today. Be ready for Jesus' return. Prepare for the rapture (see here for how to do so). Keep watching and praying, eagerly awaiting our Lord's return.

Jacob's Trouble About to Be Fulfilled

In my last post, I wrote about the Many Revelations Concerning September 2025 Rapture. Today I'd like to corroborate that further by noting some signs indicating that the time of Jacob's Trouble is about to begin.

The prophet Jeremiah predicted the time of Jacob's trouble in Jeremiah 30:7, in which he described a period of intense tribulation and distress for the nation of Israel. It is often associated with the Great Tribulation, which the Lord Jesus prophesied about in Matthew 24:21, a coming period of hardship and persecution for both the Jewish people and all mankind before His return. This time is going to be one of intense suffering, persecution, and warfare, as God's judgments and wrath are poured out, but also a time of divine intervention and ultimate salvation for Israel. 

You don't want to be here for the Great Tribulation, as this is going to be a time of hell on earth, a dystopian world, in which the antichrist will reign globally as an incarnation of satan. He will seek to control the thoughts and activities of everyone who lives upon the earth, and part of his plan to do so includes the mark of the beast that he will require everyone to take.

According to Scripture, the Great Tribulation begins immediately after the rapture of the Body of Christ, in which the saints will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air when He comes for us in the clouds (1 Thes 4:14-18). The rapture will occur at the last trumpet (1 Cor 15:51-53), which is why so many believe it will coincide with the Feast of Trumpets, as the Lord has revealed to numerous believers around the world independently. Therefore, if these revelations are truly from the Lord, then the great Tribulation would begin this fall, after the Feast of Trumpets.

According to the book of Revelation, there is a period of three and a half years or 42 months, when the antichrist will reign, as spoken of in Revelation 13:5. During this period, which is also equal to 1,260 days, the Jews will be taken care of by God in a place that He has prepared for them in the wilderness (Rev 12:6). In the book of Daniel, it speaks of 1,290 days, which some believe to refer to the other half of the Great Tribulation. When we add 1,260 to 1,290, we get 2,550 days.

Interestingly, the period between the first day of the Feast of Trumpets on September 22, 2025 and the Jewish Day of Atonement seven years later in 2032 is exactly 2,550 days. This phenomenon rarely occurs. In fact, it has never occurred prior to Israel returning to the Promised Land in 1948, and has only happened six times since then. This next one spanning from 2025 to 2032 will be the seventh time it has happened since 1948. But there are no future years after 2025 when it will occur, as the specific alignment in September 2025 is a unique event. For example, the number of days from 2026 - 2033 (7 years) between the two holidays is 2578, not 2550 (see here). So this phenomenon will never occur again after this fall, which further lends credence to the many revelations about the rapture possibly occurring next month.

It has also been pointed out by some that 2025 is the 77th anniversary since Israel regained their statehood in 1948. The nation of Israel is named after Jacob, whom God renamed Israel. He was 77 years old when he married Leah and Rachel (see here), who gave birth to the twelve sons of Israel, which became twelve tribes. He had to work another seven years for his father-in-law Laban after he married the two sisters, so he was 84 years old at the end of that seven years. 

Coincidentally Israel will celebrate their 84th anniversary in seven years. Could the next seven years be the time of Jacob's Trouble, which would parallel the period when Jacob encountered those troubles with his father-in-law Laban? We know that during the seven years Jacob worked for his uncle, Laban changed his wages ten times (Gen 31:7), and at the end of that period, Jacob took his wives, children, and all his property, and escaped from Laban without telling him he was leaving. Certainly that was a seven-year time of trouble for Jacob, so it seems reasonable to draw the parallel between his ages at the beginning and end of it, and the anniversary dates of Israel at the beginning and end of the next seven years. If this parallel is valid, and if the time of Jacob's Trouble begins this fall, then Israel would coincidentally be 77 at the beginning of it and 84 at the end of it. This parallel will never again occur at any future point, so it is worth giving it careful consideration, especially in light of all the other signs pointing to the rapture happening next month, including the perfect fit for the 2550 days. 

Moreover, in my related recent article called Many Revelations Concerning September 2025 Rapture, I stated that seven years ago in 2018, the Lord told a man from South Africa named Joshua Mhlakela that when Israel is celebrating their 77th anniversary from the time they were reestablished as a nation in 1948, the "exodus" (i.e., rapture) would occur. It's important to note that Israel is currently celebrating their 77th anniversary this year in 2025. 

Divine Coincidences
The day before I wrote this article, I wrote an article called Jacob Was 77 Years Old When He Married, which I referenced and linked to above in this present article. A few minutes after I wrote that article, I happened to watch the first part of a video on Youtube about the Feast of Trumpets in 2025, after which I was quite amazed to find the following statement in the video comments, which the channel owner left in reply to one of his viewers:

"Jacob (Israel) was 77 when he took his first bride..." That seemed to me like a divine confirmation of the article I had just written. So that occurred last evening.

Then this afternoon, after I wrote this present article about Jacob's Trouble About to Be Fulfilled, while I was praying and seeking the Lord, I glanced over at the thermometer on my desk in front of me in my office, and was amazed to see that the indoor and outdoor temperatures displayed side-by-side were 77 and 84 respectively (photo below)! I knew that was definitely a divine confirmation of this article that I had just written, in which I referenced the numbers 77 and 84 regarding Jacob's age, as well as the age of the nation of Israel. 


[Note: As of September 6, 2025, nearly a month later, I still haven't seen that 77/84 number combination again on my thermometer, since it happened on August 13, 2025.]

Closing Words
I recommend that you please take all of this to the Lord in prayer, and ask Him to confirm to you whether or not it means the rapture will occur in September 2025. 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 are certainly significant warnings that 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. 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 soonYou 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.
