Are You Ready for Christs Return? Truly Ready?

M atthew 24:29-31 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 heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken; then will appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory; and he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. (RSV)

Introduction

J esus is passionately pursuing you! He is head over heels in love with you! He is absolutely crazy about you!

Do you believe that? Truly believe that?

Do you already know that you can enter into the Holy of Holies and commune with the Almighty God of the universe on a deep, personal level?

Are you actively pursuing Jesus to go deeper and deeper in relationship?

Did you know that the LORD God is full of mercy and kindness, and He desires to show you His mercy and kindness every day?

Are you hungry for more of Jesus? God longs to reveal His Son to you through His word and by revelation through His Holy Spirit, filling you with Him in increasing measure.

Did you know that your Creator talks to you in various ways throughout the day, and He desires to show you His amazing plans for you?

Lets dive in and find out how to receive this gift of relationship that your Creator desires to restore back to you.

Purpose

G od led me to teach His children how to go deeper into His love. He asked me to give the message that His judgments are increasing and that we need to repent of our sins and no longer take His grace for granted.

This teaching is meant to draw us closer to Him in relationship and to explain in a practical way how to spend time with Almighty God in that secret place, as He fills us with Jesus. God is making us ready brides, as He pours out His mercy upon us.

If you are like I was, you need direction on what the secret place with God can look like. Many years ago, I asked God to teach me how to pray. It wasnt easy for me to come up with things to say to someone that I didnt even see; especially the One I am to be approaching with reverence. Yet, I had such a desire to communicate with Him and wanted to intercede for others in my quiet time that I knew something had to change. Over the years that quiet time with Jesus has varied. This training in the secret place prayer brought me to the point where the light bulb turned on for me about the connection with prayer and the temple.

This is a teaching on the Temple of God and how it relates to us entering into that Holy of Holies, where we can commune with Him on a deep personal level. It is about how to grow in intimacy with the Almighty and learn more about His character through His word and through time spent with Him.

I desire to teach this to you because I spent decades just going through the motions in prayer, not really knowing how to draw closer to God, in addition to knowing Him through His word.

This book originated out of that secret place with the LORD, as I study His word and listen for His voice for revelation of who He is. However, most of the visions that I have had that have confirmed what I had been learning about the character of Jesus and what He wants from His people have not been when I was praying. They happened as I was only going about my day.

It is my passion to show Christians that there is so much more of God that He wants to share with us personally, while we are still on this earth. Gods word says He does not show favoritism, so what we read about Him in His word is for us today, not just for the people whose stories are in it. We can continuously pursue Him for more revelation of His great love for us. I went decades thinking there is a limit to what God is willing to do through His people and there is a limit to His love for me and what He wants to reveal of Himself to me. Some of that belief was based on the scripture in Revelation 22 that says that we are not to add to the prophecy of that book. Yet, getting to know God through His Spirit and Him revealing details of those plans are not what He was referring to. He was serious when He said to draw near to Him, and He will draw near to us. He is not finished with us. He wants us to be free to seek Him. He wants to take off our chains that bind us. We will find that we want more of Jesus, and He wants more of our hearts! This book is written with a tender heart longing for you to know God on a deep, personal level. I want you to be so full of joy because of His presence that you want to shout out Jesus name and pour out His love to those around you.

Preface

O n November 6, 2012, I heard the audible voice of God. It came suddenly, when I wasnt even praying. He said, I will judge the nation(s)! Then, He showed me a long, cylinder shaped light shooting straight down from heaven, then going on behind me. The light represented His judgment. The visitation ended.

That encounter was scary and wonderful at the same time. Jehovah showed me a glimpse of His power, yet I felt very safe. He is the Almighty Creator of the universe and is in charge, but He loves His children and shows His tender love to us. I was not aware of my body, except that I knew I was in a standing position in the spirit. Had I been, I probably would have fallen on my face in worship or stood at attention, as if in the military.

Hosea 6:5 Therefore, I have hewn them by the prophets, I have slain them by the words of my mouth, and my judgment goes forth as the light. (RSV)

Moments later I repented of something seemingly very small. Suddenly, Almighty God appeared before me with His face veiled with a covering of some sort! He and the covering were white. His hand was up with His elbow bent, waiting for a high five. He did not speak, but He allowed me to know His thoughts for me at that moment. I had a very clear thought, Oh, I think Im supposed to high five it. I did, and I saw my spirit arm! The LORD was showing me approval for apologizing for that small sin, and He confirmed in my spirit that giving Him a high five was exactly what He had wanted me to do. He showed me a dose of His love. This was not like what we may think of when we think of a vision. This was more real to me than my life on this earth. It was more real than me typing this for you right now. It felt like the real me, and I knew Him! I was in the spirit. The oneness that I felt with Daddy God, as my thoughts became His thoughts, is an experience that has rocked my world. I am undone, and I will never be the same! The everlasting, good fruit that has come from this visitation reveals itself in me day by day. God has assured me through various confirmations that these visitations were in fact Him. After that night, a door was opened to have visions; they began to flow after that. However, as of today, I still have not had another encounter like that. Im hoping and praying for it, but my focus is on my relationship with God.
