Preparing for the Rapture

For you believe that you are ready to go up in the rapture, but you are not… and here’s why. The Lord says there is none, none that’s righteous. None that understandeth. And they are all gone out of the way. They have together become unprofitable. There’s none that doeth good. No, not one. Now, read that again in Romans 3:10-12. Verse 10 as it is written- “There is none righteous. No, not one. Verse 11- “There is none that understandeth. There is none that seeketh after God. Verse 12- they have all gone out of the way. They are together become unprofitable. There is none that doeth good. No, not one.” So, let everybody that thinks they can go to God by their wicked ways or the unrighteous man with his thoughts. Isaiah 55:7-9 “Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him: and to our God, for He will abundantly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Remember in Jeremiah chapter 7, God tells you to amend your ways and your doings. Become closer to God and not drifting farther apart. You must be doing the things that He’s telling you to do in the Bible to get ready for the rapture. Not the things that you wickedly think of. For instance, like getting closer to God by fasting; starving yourself. But do it by His word. Amend your ways and your doings as it is written in Jeremiah 7 verse 3. Listen to this… “Thus, saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. And, trust not in lying words…” In other words, let him return unto the Lord, which means to repent. Realize that you truly are a sinner, and you need to repent. For God says you are backsliding. And He says” Return thou, oh backsliding Israel, says the Lord, and I will not cause my anger to fall upon you. For I am merciful, says the Lord”. And He is very merciful. And, He says “And I will not keep anger forever.” But, as long as you are backsliding, He is very anger and waiting for you to repent. And He is longsuffering to us not willing that anyone should perish but that all should come to repentance. Let’s read this again in 2 Peter 3:9. As it is written, “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise as some men count slackness. But is longsuffering to usward; not willing that anyone should perish, but that all should come to repentance. So truly admit that you are a sinner. Stop turning away from God by backsliding and repent. And here’s what he says about that in Jeremiah 3:12-15. As it is written, “Go and proclaim these words toward the north and say, Return, thou backsliding Israel, saith the Lord; and I will not cause mine anger to fall upon you: for I am merciful, saith the Lord and I will not keep anger for ever. Only acknowledge thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the Lord thy God, and hast scattered thy ways to the strangers under every green tree, and ye have not obeyed my voice, saith the Lord.” Verse 14- “Turn, O backsliding children, saith the Lord; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion:” (which is Heaven,) “and I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.” You see, the Lord says He’s even willing to send somebody to tell you how you should do this. Pastors according to His heart. Not the ones that you think are really preachers. Remember what I said about these lying words? God did not send those preachers. So, you must first of all truly acknowledge that you are a sinner, stop turning your back to God, and turn towards him and repent and he will surely do all of these things. Because God is so merciful and longsuffering. He wishes that none should perish but that all should come to repentance. Now, after you have repented and turned back to God, stop backsliding. And this is what He says. Jeremiah 29:12-13. As it is written, “Then shall you call upon me and you shall go and pray unto me, and I will harken unto you” (and I will hear you). And you will seek me and find me when you shall search for me with all your heart.” Let’s add to all this what God says in Matthew chapter 6 verse 33. But, seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you. So, you must seek God every day, all the time.
