Enter His Gates with Thanksgiving and Praise ! \o/ 🙂 May We all Hear these Words from Jesus (Yah’shua), Lord Willing :: Matthew 25: 23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 🙂 Luke 19:17 And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.
Mark 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength ::: 1 Corinthians 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him….
The Best Things To Live For ::
The Marriage Supper of The Lamb — Revelation 19:9 – And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
Psalm 16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
\o/ The Saints Are Happy In Heaven because they followed Christ. They rejoice with Him Forever…..
The Lord is my inheritance and my cup; He alone will give me my reward. The measuring line has marked a lovely place for me, my inheritance is my great delight.
The Rapture – A Crown Given to All Who Love Jesus Appearing! ::: 2 Timothy4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
The Bema Seat – Store Up Treasure in Heaven! (Bema-Seat Web-Site) We will receive a Reward or maybe Rewards and/or a Crown(s) –– This judgment may determine our: “Glory, Honor, Status, Reigning Power, Domain” — During the 1,000 Year Millennial Reign of Jesus — We may be judged on everything — Our Faithfulness and Obedience to God, in doing what God has said to do in this Life. Examples ::: Resist Temptation, Obey, (Conduct/Behavior/Decisions) – Loving God with our whole heart, soul, mind and strength, Loving our Neighbor as our self — Feeding The Poor, Clothing The Naked, Sheltering The Homeless, Visiting the Sick and Imprisoned, (if we can’t do these things, giving to ministries that do, is hopefully just as good :)) – Evangelizing, Winning Souls, Fisher of Men.
Revelation 22:12 – And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
The 1,000 Year Millennial Kingdom or Millennial Reign of Jesus — We will be Kings and Priests if we are with Jesus when we leave this life, either by Death or Rapture. The Millennial Temple will be in Service as Written in the Book of Ezekiel, And Three of The Feasts of Yahweh – will be instituted again as well it may be ><> 🙂
Revelation 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Peter 2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation,….
The Millennial Reign is one of the best things to live for in this life, because for a 1,000 Years we will be Kings and Priests ! Depending on our Faithfulness in this life to Jesus, our Works at The Bema Seat may determine how much “Reigning Power” we will have during the Millennium. (King of maybe a town? King of a City? King of 3 cities or more? King of a State? King of a Country/Nation?)
The New Jerusalem – The “Glory” of Our Houses/Mansions could be determined possibly by how we have lived our life on earth in relation to Jesus/The Bible.

The Crown of Life — James 1:12 Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, (approved) he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Jesus Throne — (The Most Eminent of All The Blessings promised to the 7 Church’s) {To those who overcome} [resist temptation and choose/stay faithful and obey/Love Jesus] — Revelation 3:21 — To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Heir of God/Co-Heir With Jesus
Power over the Nations – Choosing Jesus and Resisting Temptation
A New Name – Choosing Jesus and Resisting Temptation
Eye has not Seen nor ear Heard the Things God has prepared for those that Love Him…..
Romans 8: 16….we are the children of God: 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.
Eternity/The New Heaven/New Earth — God will wipe away all tears and the former things will not be remembered nor come to mind! How awesome is that 🙂
2 Corinthians 4:17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; 18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Daniel 12:3 – And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Possible Best Verse Ever 🙂 Mark 13:28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near: (may be this: When Israel becomes a Nation (1948) Know that Jesus Return :)/The End is Near)
Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

In Relation to the picture :: Mark 13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, 25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. 26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
The main reason for this post is for a small exposition/explanation of Luke 21:25. Let’s take each aspect of the verse and see what we come up with.
Luke 21:25 could be referring to the general time of Jesus Return or be referring to a time very near to the 2nd Coming of Jesus at Armageddon.
What is interesting about the verse is that we are seeing/starting to see: ‘upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring.’
There shall be signs in the moon – A Tetrad of 4 Blood Red Moons on YHWH’s Feast Days in 2014/2015 – Could Signal The start of The Tribulation beginning maybe in one of the years of 2013 to 2016.
There shall be signs in the stars – Transit of Venus across the Sun – June 2012 – will not happen this Century again may be the call. [Mark 13:25 may be the ultimate ful-fillment of the signs in the stars]
Upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring — This is a major point :: Distress of Nations with Perplexity seems to be right around the corner for the whole world in relation to the Economy.
Japan at the moment is in perplexity with their Nuclear Plant
Australia was probably in perplexity not that long ago with major flooding
Christchurch, New Zealand possible perplexity with an Earthquake(s)
The last point of: ‘The Sea and the Waves Roaring‘ = A lot of Hurricanes during the first decade of 2000 ::: Tsunami in Japan, March 11, 2011 ::: Tsunami 2004, Indian Ocean
End: Analysis/Deduction
Rapture note 🙂 – The Rapture happening on The Feast Day of Yom Teruah/The Feast of Trumpets may really be the call ! 🙂 2013-2016 Could Be Serious Feast of Trumpets Rapture Watch Years — God’s Blessings 🙂 ( Keep on the Watch for Jesus/Yeshua to Return on any day too – just in case 🙂 )
Matthew 25:6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

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: 17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
1 Corinthians 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 52 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.
Galatians 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. 7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

Are we nearing the Fullness of Time for Yah-shua’s 2nd Advent? Reasons To Be on The Watch For The Rapture of The Bride by The Bridegroom Yah-shua 🙂
Michael Rood – Feasts of Israel
Ezekiel 38/39 to take place in the Latter Times — Russia/Iran and others to ‘Attack’ Israel — Iran maybe trying to get a Nuclear Bomb to destroy Israel. — Article: 10/3/14
Economies of the World are in possible bad shape – could make way for The Anti-Christ’s 666 Mark to buy or sell (maybe an RFID chip)
Pornography makes more money than All Three Professional Sports Combined – NFL, MLB, NBA
Divorce in America at maybe 30% – 60% — According to a previous post – within one Generation of the Collapse of the Family, most Civilizations collapsed. – We are maybe at that point.
Israel has returned as a Nation in 1948. 70AD is when their Temple was Destroyed. As soon as a 7 Year Peace Deal is signed with Israel and others, The End of The World Will Begin — Daniel 9:27
WWI – WWII — WWIII = No more world possibly – Nuclear Weapons.
Knowledge Explosion – Daniel 12:4 – Seal The Book till the time of the end… Knowledge shall increase
Israel just found maybe (at the current market price) $90 Billion in Natural Gas. — This could be the spoil referred to in The Gog/Magog Prophecy of Ezekiel.
Final Word – If we are at the 6,000th Year from the Day of Creation (Israel’s Calendar) and if The Epistle of Barnabas is Reputable which says God is going to finish everything in 6,000 years – Then, I’m thinking The Wise should start Rejoicing ! 🙂
Pre-Trib Rapture Soon at a Feast of Trumpets, God Willing 🙂
Psalm 102:16 When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory. (KJV) (Israel Seems To Be Pretty Built Up – Jesus Return could Be Near)
Leviticus 23:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, Concerning the feasts of the LORD, which ye shall proclaim to be holy convocations, (Divine Appointments) even these are my feasts. 3 Six days shall work be done: but the seventh day is the sabbath of rest, an holy convocation; ye shall do no work therein: it is the sabbath of the LORD in all your dwellings.
Leviticus 23:23 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation (Rehearsals).
Financial Situation could = 666 Mark to buy/sell, RFID chip could be the Technology for the Mark.
Prophecy of Ezekiel 38/39 with Russia/Iran and Others to attack (attempted invasion) of Israel in: ‘The Latter Times’ — 5/6ths of the Invading armies get destroyed.
Ezekiel says the attackers or the Leader of Russia come in for a Spoil and a Prey (merriam-webster dictionary (prey) — possibly a meaning of revenge if Israel attacks Iran’s Nuclear work (Russia/Iran’s Busheur Nuclear Reactor) [prey could = unfortunate victim just due to another person’s evil] — (Spoil could be: Israel just found more oil/gas)
Interesting Word :: Gazprombank which may own the Russian ‘monopoly?’ that is the main contractor of the Busheur Nuclear Reactor work —-A friend at Facebook just wrote this to me, to a post at facebook on June, 5, 2012, from the Headline Below :: “Meanwhile Putin brought the CEO of Gazprom with him to Beijing to work out deals with China. Think he wants competition from Israel?” — Gazprom may be synonymous with Russia’s Energy.
The meaning of Spoil And Prey in Ezekiel’s Prophecy Could Be: Oil/Gas = Spoil ::::: And a Prey = Revenge for an attack on Iran’s Nuclear Work.
Ezekiel 38:10 Thus saith the Lord GOD; It shall also come to pass, that at the same time shall things come into thy mind, (President of Russia — Maybe Putin) and thou shalt think an evil thought: 11 And thou shalt say, I will go up to the land of unwalled villages; I will go to them that are at rest, that dwell safely,all of them dwelling without walls, and having neither bars nor gates, (Israel — possibly or probably dwelling under the Anti-Christ’s Seven Year End of The World Peace Deal) 12 To take a spoil, (oil/gas?) and to take a prey; (just acting out the revenge for attacking Iran’s Nuclear Work or maybe even to try and attack the Anti-Christ or maybe even just hatred of the Jews) to turn thine hand upon the desolate places that are now inhabited, and upon the people that are gathered out of the nations, which have gotten cattle and goods, that dwell in the midst of the land. (Israel back as a Nation as of 1948 !)
Ezekiel 38:13 Sheba, and Dedan, and the merchants of Tarshish, (Gulf Arab States?/Saudi Arabia?) with all the young lions thereof, (Maybe The: USA/Europe/Australia/Canada) shall say unto thee, Art thou come to take a spoil? hast thou gathered thy company (Iran and Others) to take a prey? (hatred/war directed at the Jews) to carry away silver and gold, to take away cattle and goods, to take a great spoil?
Keeping On the Watch For Yahshua The Bridegroom to Arrive For His Bride The Church, at a future Yom Teruah/The Feast of Trumpets = wise.
Psalm 91:14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
Holyday (Festival) or Feast Day ::: The Jewish Feast Days
Sabbath Day(s) ::: The Sabbath Saturday was a day of rest – Holy Day – day to Worship God.
You all know what I’m thinking 🙂 ::: Rapture ! Feast of Trumpets ! 🙂
Here are The Jewish Feast Days — Notice they are a Shadow of Things to be ::
Four of The Feasts have already had Ful-fillment at Jesus First Advent:
Passover — (initiated by Moses the night before the Israelites left Egypt – when every first born Egyptian son died) (the blood of a lamb saved)ful-filled: When Jesus – The Lamb of God – died/was Crucified in 33 AD.
Feast of Unleavened Bread(link)— ful-filled: When Jesus was Buried 33 AD – Perfect Sacrifice for Sin – Bread From Heaven
Feast of First Fruits — ful-filled: By Jesus 33 AD When He Rose From The Dead
Feast of Pentecost — ful-filled: Arrival of The Holy Spirit 33 AD
Future Feasts — And Ful-fillments By Jesus at His Second Advent – God Willing !!!
🙂 The Feast of Trumpets — The Rapture ! — The Hidden Day – The Feast of Trumpets — Always begins at an Unknown Time.
Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur)— Doomsday for the Wicked – The Tribulation – Jesus Returns at Armageddon — The Second Coming
🙂 Feast of Tabernacles— The 1,000 Millennial Reign of Jesus ! This Feast may be Synonymous with The 7th Day Sabbath/Saturday Rest too 🙂
At This Time of History — Jesus Return Could Really Be Near 🙂 Keeping Extra Oil for the Lamps (Virtue/Faithfulness) in Watching for Jesus the Bridegroom at the Feast of Trumpets = Wise
Ahmadinejad is getting ever closer to a Nuclear Bomb most likely — See this Article to get his feelings toward Israel — Israel has just found possible major oil/gas — See this article (regarding The Ezekiel 38/39 Prophecy – coming in for a Spoil and Prey) [Ezekiel 38/39 takes Place In The Latter Times]
The USA is an a Moral Disaster — The Whole world probably is too.
Abortion in the USA may be 55+ Million — This is almost Apocalyptic.
Jesus Blood Forgives all sins with Repentance/Obedience — Christians a new creation in Jesus.
Divorce maybe 30-60% (USA) (If you are divorced because of a Spouse’s unfaithfulness & are re-married, you may be all-right Spiritually — See This Writing)
A 200 Million man Army can be Fielded (Book of Revelation) — There may not of even been 200 Million people on the Earth when John wrote the Book of Revelation (This may be ful-filled by China alone or China and others)
There are Nuclear Weapons that can destroy the world
Pornography out of control — Hollywood/The Music/Evolution — all messed up (USA)
Same Sex (Gay) Marriage was legalized in Washington D.C. – 2009/2010 (Homosexuality becoming more of a possible problem)
Gay Marriage Entire Country of USA — As of 2015
Iran on it’s way most likely to a Nuclear Bomb to Destroy Israel — 7 Year Peace Deal with Israel begins the End of The World
The Economic Situation maybe with the World could lead to the 666 Mark — ‘World Debt Clock’ — The U.S. $18+ Trillion in Debt (11/3/15)

Joel 3:1 For, behold, in those days, and in that time, (Right Now!) when I shall bring again the captivity (Captives, Exiles, 'Fortunes') of Judah and Jerusalem, (1949/1967+)
Joel 3:2 I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, (see Gill's Exposition) ('Armageddon') and will plead with
them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. (Gaza Forsaken - August 2005 - Zephaniah 2:1-3 ? -- A Palestinian State a Possible soon future viable thing) - (words in parentheses: victor)

Thank You for refusing many of my requests. While I have longed for Egypt, You have often given me the wilderness which is more needful.
