"Do you scream, RAPTURE!!"

Ever wonder why you feel persecuted? Do you find yourself saying to God, more than once, COME QUICKLY LORD!?

We have all at some point in our lives found our humanness is such distress, thinking that the wrath of God has come upon us..... but I want to share something with you. If you are a born again believer, you will not ever suffer the “WRATH” of God! But you will possibly/probably definitely suffer PERSECUTION. I'm here to tell you—The Word says; “God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.” The wrath of God was poured out on JESUS. First Thessalonian 5:9

Just as God removed Noah and his seven family members from his wrath, He will also remove us from the wrath of this world, through the Rapture.

WE WILL HOWEVER SUFFER PERSECUTION.......because persecution comes from SATAN and he is after our righteousness! Though he will not get it, unless we resolve our rights and let him, we will feel the pain of persecution various times. But GOD sent His son and left for us the Holy Spirit to comfort us and get us through the difficult times.

A thought: There is a line in the book of Mark which amazes me......it's this: “SEEING their faith, Jesus said to the paralyzed man.”

What do you think Jesus saw when he told the man “his sins were forgiven?--after he SAW his faith.

What is it that JESUS SEES in YOU that shows HIM that YOU HAVE FAITH? Does Jesus SEE your faith?

When Lot and his family were living in Sodom and Gomorrah, though living carnal, God still spared them from His wrath. (several months ago, in Bible study, I taught about Lot and how he lived off of Abrahams blessing, remember? Well, God spared him the wrath) AS it was with Sodom and Gomorrah and with the Flood....God will remove us from the wrath.

THIS is how we know there will be a Rapture experience, because God for thousands of years has held back his wrath.

God will come against unrighteousness, but for now, though at times it seems bleak in lives of others or other countries or families or even close in your homes......HE is not pouring out His wrath.

He will allow persecution so that His Son will be revealed even greater as we learn to TRUST IN WHO HE IS.

He is asking you to cling to him during times of persecution and times of hardship.

The Rapture is not to remove us from persecution. The Rapture is to remove the CHURCH from Judgment on the earth.

God promises to be with us during times of difficulties.......DO YOU BELIEVE IN WHAT HE SAYS?

Tell me....WHAT DOES HE SEE IN YOU?
