End Time Babylon (pt 5)

Jesus said that wickedness and righteousness would be “side by side” at the end. God is not going to remove all the righteous people and rein judgment down on the wicked…because that is NOT His stated goal. He desires for people to turn and repent…that is why He sent a witness, Jonah, to Nineveh…and angels to rescue Lot from Sodom…and had Noah take 100 years to build a boat in front of mocking people…God desires to redeem…to save. He wants His Bride to agree with Him about that…to GLORY in the tribulation that is coming. She does this by worshipping and praying. Jesus said the Bride, the wheat, would do this right in the midst of the tares:


Matthew 13:25-30 but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat and went his way. (26) But when the grain had sprouted and produced a crop, then the tares also appeared. (27) So the servants of the owner came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?' (28) He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.' The servants said to him, 'Do you want us then to go and gather them up?' (29) But he said, 'No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. (30) Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, "First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn." ' "


Matthew 13:36-43 Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field." (37) He answered and said to them: "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. (38) The field is the world, the good seeds are the sons of the kingdom, but the tares are the sons of the wicked one. (39) The enemy who sowed them is the devil, the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are the angels. (40) Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. (41) The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, (42) and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. (43) Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!


Jesus is going to gather FIRST the tares and increase the heat on them…then gather the wheat in the sky! This is the opposite of what many believe. But this is why: because HE LOVES THE TARES TOO! He wants to save as many as possible. How can they be saved if no one tells them the truth of what is happening?!


Romans 10:14-15 How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? (15) And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: "HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO PREACH THE GOSPEL OF PEACE, WHO BRING GLAD TIDINGS OF GOOD THINGS!"


This is what is happening right now! All over the earth, especially in the end Time Babylon…where many of God’s people live…Cities of refuge are starting to be established…places where God’s people are gathering with the intention of crying out night and day. Many aren’t even clear on this plan!!! They just know God is calling them to this. This will get VERY intense as more and more, the heat is turned up and the pressure increased. This is the key to the survival and even flourishing of God’s people in a time of trouble! When God was judging Egypt, His people lived RIGHT NEXT TO THE EGYPTIANS in the land of Goshen. God’s people were spared the majority of the effects of the plagues..they were sealed:


Exodus 8:22-24 And in that day I will set apart the land of Goshen, in which My people dwell, that no swarms of flies shall be there, in order that you may know that I am the LORD in the midst of the land. (23) I will make a difference between My people and your people. Tomorrow this sign shall be." ' " (24) And the LORD did so. Thick swarms of flies came into the house of Pharaoh, into his servants' houses, and into all the land of Egypt. The land was corrupted because of the swarms of flies.


Living in “covenant”…raising up the night and day tabernacle of worship and prayer…in your city will establish a land of Goshen right where you live. This IS Jesus’ plan for the church before He comes and renews the whole earth!


Leviticus 26 and revelation both promise that the cities of the earth that don’t agree with God in what He is doing will ALL collapse:


The promise:


Leviticus 26:31-32 I will lay your cities waste and bring your sanctuaries to desolation, and I will not smell the fragrance of your sweet aromas. (32) I will bring the land to desolation, and your enemies (those not living in rebellion to God) who dwell in it shall be astonished at it.


The prophecy of how this will happen:


Revelation 16:19 Now the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.


YOUR City (all cities) are INVITED to be a refuge for those who love God and are getting out of the places not in agreement with Him. What will you say?!!


Luke 18:7-8 And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? (8) I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?"





Find faith here, Jesus!!
