Revelation 14:15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying out with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, "Put in your sickle and reap, because the hour to reap has come, because the harvest of the earth is ripe."

All the dominoes are lined up, they just need a little push. I believe we are on the verge of what will be known as the triggering event. A triggering event is a barrier that once breached sets off a cascading chain of other events. Covid was a foreshadowing of just how quickly life around the "world," can change.

We are one (super)natural disaster, one war, one plague, from the initiating of the great tribulation. I feel in my spirit it is close even at the door. This world is going to be rocked by an event that will trigger and quickly be followed by all the judgments written in the book of Revelation

For years I have felt that the word of the Lord was, "get ready, get ready, get ready." I heard it first from TD Jakes and he meant it as get ready for blessing. The Lord took it and applied it to me with the sense that I was to get ready, the Lord's coming is near! I no longer believe the word is get ready, but it is now - be ready! There has been a shifting in the timeline. The time is being shortened.

In Matthew 25 the virgins who tried to get ready were shut out, only those who were ready joined the bridegroom. In Exodus, at the first Passover, this is how the Jews were instructed to eat that meal:

Exodus 12:11 ‘Now you shall eat it in this manner: [with] your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in haste — it is the LORD’S Passover.

In other words, eat it, and be ready to move out. There will be no time for preparation when the Lord says it's time to leave Egypt, He comes in the twinkling of an eye - there will be no time for getting ready. You are ready or you are not. Any day now it will happen.

Jesus told this parable to His disciples:

Luke 12:35-40 "Be dressed in readiness, and [keep] your lamps alight.  "And be like men who are waiting for their master when he returns from the wedding feast, so that they may immediately open [the door] to him when he comes and knocks.  "Blessed are those slaves whom the master shall find on the alert when he comes; truly I say to you, that he will gird himself [to serve,] and have them recline [at the table,] and will come up and wait on them. "Whether he comes in the second watch, or even in the third, and finds [them] so, blessed are those [slaves]. "You too, be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour that you do not expect."

Then He gave this warning and prophecy of what some will be like in that day:

Luke 12:45  "But if that slave says in his heart, ‘My master will be a long time in coming,’ and begins to beat the slaves, [both] men and women, and to eat and drink and get drunk Luke 12:46  the master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect [him,] and at an hour he does not know, and will cut him in pieces, and assign him a place with the unbelievers.

He describes someone who shrugged off the warnings that the time was near and began to regress spiritually. As goes the twig so goes the tree. It is not a time to regress, but to press in. If this day finds you slipping back, hear the voice of the Lord, and turn your ship around. Lest that day find you unprepared.

This world is going to be shaken like no other time in history. There will be tribulation such as never was since the world began, FEMA will be broke, too many catastrophes, and all the resources of man will fail because of the magnitude of judgments. There will be no bunkers to keep anyone safe. If this sounds scary, it is, because that is the way the bible presents it. We are only one triggering event away from it beginning. The chess pieces are all arranged, the board is set, it simply awaits God to make one final move to set it all in motion.

To all those who are fearful listen carefully to what Jesus advised:

Luke 12:4 And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. Luke 12:5 But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

More than ever, keep your fire burning
