THE LAST DAYS

So many things have been said about the last days, mostly according to biblical accounts. I must agree that according the Scriptures we in the last days as against many people’s beliefs that we are in the end time. Careful study of the Scriptures reveals that we are in the last days which will culminate into the end of time. Jesus Christ speaking to His disciples in Mat.24:4-8, 4:And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5:For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6:And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7:For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8: All these are the beginning of sorrows. Now, from the above Scriptures and the state of world at present we can only but agree that world has entered into the last days which Jesus called;“beginning of sorrows.” The world is presently facing her hardest times in history; economic and political turmoil is threatening to bring the world to her knees. The corruption in the world is a source of worry to many, but the truth is that these things must be for a pointer to humans. 2Tim.3:1-4,This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2:For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3:Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,4:Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;5:Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.6:For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts,7:Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. The above passage corroborates with what Jesus said in Mathew 24, and confirms that what the world is facing now is beginning of sorrows; which is also the last days events. The Bible didn't only talk about the days of sorrows, but also spoke about a time of advantage in the last days. Jesus has given us assurance in verse 6 of Mathew 24. It's a time of security for those who believe in Him. 6, And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. This season is a time of peace for believers according to the Lord. It is a time when the world seeks peace but rather finds chaos. Jesus speaking to His disciples in John 14:27 said; Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. The verse before the above Scripture talks about the Holy Spirit, explaining how peace can be found. It can only be found through the person of the Holy Spirit of God, because He Spirit of peace (sound mind). 2Tim.1:7,For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. The promises of God to us in these times are enormous and quite glorious… in Isa.60 from verse 1, the Lord spoke of the coming days and what they hold for us as His children. 1: Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. 2:For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen uponthee. 3:And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. The Last Days Move: In as much as many are aware of the fact that we are living in the last days, we should also be aware that we are living in the best times of the Church of Christ. A time where the power of God is made available for the last days harvest towards the end-time flight (rapture). Joel 2:1, Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand; 2:A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. Act 2:16-18, But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; 17:And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: 18:And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: The prophecy had come in the verse 28 of Joel chapter 2 speaking about the last days move of the Holy Spirit. The Pentecost isn't coming the second time but many shall receive a stirring up, and those that shall come to the knowledge of Christ shall be baptized in the most dramatic ways. This season shall see massive salvation healings a d demonstration of the power of God. Amazing financial miracles shall be recorded in the life of many that have given themselves wholly to the Lord. Yes there will be persecutions, but for the glory ahead; we shall endure and win in the end. 1Pet. 5:10, But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
