INTRODUCTION

From our texts above, we can see that Our Lord, Jesus Christ, finished His revelations to John, The Apostle, with emphatic repetitions of the statement; ‘I come quickly’. He repeated this statement three times. The first time He rendered the statement, He was giving a warning, (revelations 22:7). The second time He rendered the statement, He was giving a warning, as well, (revelations 22:12). But the third time, He was not giving a warning. He gave an assurance; a statement of certainty.

Our Lord, Jesus Christ, changed from a statement of warning to a statement of certainty when The Bride of Christ joined The Holy Spirit to ask Him (Jesus) to come after the second warning (revelations 22:17). Assurance came when The Bride teamed up with The Holy Spirit. In the whole of the Bible, The last words credited to our Lord, Jesus Christ, was those words of assurance of His coming and words came after Bride Partnered with The Spirit.

Bride of Christ, for you to meet with the Lord, Jesus Christ, at rapture, you have to partner with the Holy Spirit. Now, You need the Holy Spirit more than ever before. We are living in a very abnormal season, when everything is happening in abnormal form. If you fail to partner with The Holy Spirit, your strength, wisdom and ability will fail you. The Spirit is already calling on you for partnership. He says; And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.


WHY YOU NEED THE HOLY SPIRIT MORE THAN BEFORE, AT THIS TIME

Prophecies about this time, the end-time, are well and clearly spelt out in the Bible, The True Word of God. A lot of events have been prophesied aforetime to characterize this time and set it apart from all other times and generations before our own. Let us mention some unusual indexes of this time and expatiate why you need The Holy Spirit with respect to these situations.

1. Courage in times of Great Disasters/Calamities:

The Bible prophesied that disasters as we have never witnessed since creation would begin to happen just as the prophecies are fulfilling now and we have been witnessing an unusual surge in different types of disasters/calamities in recent times; earthquakes, plane crashes, tsunamis, volcanic eruption and so on. In fact, Jesus Christ summarized the reactions of men to these disasters in Luke 21: 26a

26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth

When you see the Tsunami in Indonesia, The earthquake and Tsunami in Japan, The plane Crash in Lagos, The Hurricane and Tornado in America, The Landslide in China and your heart begins to fail you because of these disasters, who will strengthen you and give you courage and tell you that you should be strong; all these disasters must happen for the messiah to come? THE HOLY SPIRIT.

2. Discerning for Deception:

We live in a time of unparallel deceptions. Bride of Christ, most things happening now are anchored on deception. Deceptions are everywhere; in government, in advertisement, in politics, in every sphere of life. It would be so difficult to see truth today. The most pathetic of all situations is deception in the church.

Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, warned us in Mathew 24: 24 that the deception will be so alarming that if the bride of Christ did not take care, she would be deceived.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

However, The Lord, Jesus Christ, advised us in Revelations 3: 18c to anoint our eyes with eye salve that we may see.

18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy unclothedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

Bride of Christ, we are exposed to deceptions like torrential rain even from many altars these days. When false prophets/pastors begin to bamboozle you right in the church, who will anoint your eyes with eyesalve that you may discern the deceptions and escape? THE HOLY SPIRIT.

3. Power to continue waiting till He comes:

I was told of a pastor that He used to say often that: ‘Let The Owner even come’, whenever he saw the level of sins being committed in all places and especially within and around the places of worship. By saying The Owner, the pastor meant Jesus Christ. The last information I heard about the Pastor was that He had backslided. He could not wait for The Owner any longer. I pray that The Lord should restore him unto His coming.

In Mathew 25:1-10, The Lord, Jesus Christ, told us a parable of 10 virgins, who all slept of because their bridegroom tarried and the lamps of 5 of them ran out of oil. This parable is both a parable and a prophecy which must be fulfilled.

5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

Bride of Christ, are you sleeping off spiritually. Has your lamp run out of oil? If you are sleeping spiritually, who will wake you up and say behold He is coming? THE HOLY SPIRIT. When your lamp is dwindling and you are running out of oil, Who will fill your lamp with oil (The internal energy you need to carry on)? THE HOLY SPIRIT.

4. Counsel and Utterance during Persecution:

There is gross hatred for God, His word and His people in this time. Some governments of nations have removed name of God from their constitutions. Some have prevented public evangelism. There are reported cases of Christians worshippers being bombed right inside the church during worship. There was a popular case of a pastor who was arrested and prosecuted for preaching the gospel.

Jesus Christ warned us in John 16:1-2 that they would do all these things to us.

1 These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended.

2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

He reiterated it in Mark 13:9, 11 that we shall be hated and persecuted because of Him.

9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.

However, the Lord Jesus Christ counseled us in Mark 13: 11 to rely on Holy Spirit during this period.

11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.

When you are hated and persecuted for no reason other than being a Christian who will give comfort to your soul and give you words that your persecutor can not deny or gainsay? THE HOLY SPIRIT.

5. Consecration For Holy living:

The Mystery of Iniquity is really working in this generation. People are committing sin on a very gross scale. When it comes to issue of iniquity (sin), I don’t think the generation of Noah did up to what this generation is doing presently. Living holy is becoming more difficult. Even government policies are making holy living difficult in some cases. Without extreme in-filling of the Holy Spirit at the time, the bride of Christ may be polluted and defiled.

I believe we have mentioned a good number of reasons why you need to be filled with Holy Spirit at this time. Though, the reasons could be more than these, but because of time and space, I will stop at these ones and talk about being filled with the Spirit.


DEGREES OF HOLY SPIRIT FILLING

Before I talk about being filled Holy Spirit, I will like to explain that there are levels or degree to which a believer can be filled with Holy Spirit. Ezekiel 47:2-5 alludes to this fact. Lets examine it.

2 Then brought he me out of the way of the gate northward, and led me about the way without unto the utter gate by the way that looketh eastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.

3 And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters were to the ankles.

4 Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters; the waters were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waters were to the loins.

5 Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over.

This passage could be used to explain the various levels to which a believer could be filled with the Holy Spirit.
The lowest level of filling of Holy Spirit is as if a man is filled with river water to the ankle. Every believer was filled with the Holy Spirit to this level at conversion. We need at least a small conviction of the Holy Spirit to accept Jesus Christ as our Saviour. This is reiterated in 1 Corinthians 12:3b which says: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. Every believer will remain in this level unless he grows in the Spirit.

The next level of the filling of the Holy Spirit is as if a man is filled with river water to the knees. Following this, the next level is as if he is filled to loin with river water.

The greatest infilling of Holy Spirit is as if a man is dropped into a great river and he is submerged in the waters so much that He cannot control himself. The waters begin to move him and direct him about. This is the level of filling of Holy Spirit that can survive the madness going on around the world right now. You have to be filled with Holy Spirit to such an extent that all of your actions, steps, wills, are controlled by the Holy Ghost. Apostle Paul puts it in another way in Ephesians 5: 18

18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

A man filled with excess wine will be intoxicated. He will not control himself again but the wine will control him. In a similar manner, Apostle Paul is advising that we should fill ourselves with Holy Spirit and be controlled by Him like a drunkard is filled with excess wine and his controlled by it.


BEING FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
The following activities will help you as you desire to be filled with The Holy Spirit to the highest level.

1. STUDYING THE WORD OF GOD (BIBLE):
Imagine that you just set up a fire and stop to add firewood; very soon, the fire will be extinguished. Each time you study the bible genuinely, spiritually, it can be likened to adding firewood to a burning fire. Rather than the fire should die off, it will increase in intensity. Study the word of God. Chew it as food if you can. Study about salvation, holiness, righteousness, fear of God, heaven, hell. Make Jesus your focus as you study. Study about end time prophecies from the bible and observe if they are being fulfilled. It will help you to focus more.

2. OBEYING THE WORD OF GOD:

The purpose of studying the word of God is that you can know the truth and apply it to your life as you prepare for the return of the Lord. Obeying the word of God is like adding fuel to the firewood you have added to the fire. Live solely on the undiluted word of God. There is perversion of His word everywhere, today. Search for the truth and live by it. If you are confused about anything in His word, pray for understanding.

3. FASTING:

Bride of Christ, you need to fast. The more you engage in the things of the flesh, the farther you drive the Holy Spirit away and vice versa. The way ladies dress these days, the songs that are played on the radios, the pictures shown on our televisions and so on increase us in the flesh unconsciously and tend to drive away the Spirit of God in us if we are not careful. Fasting will help us to break down our flesh so that we will not respond to all these things. Please fast always to be in the Spirit at all times till The Lord comes. You can do a Daniel type of fasting, or water fasting, or Esther/Paul fasting or just ordinary fasting.

4. EVANGELISM:

If you want to experience manifestation of the Holy Spirit, go on evangelism, always, and make sure you preach His true gospel.

5. HOLY LIVING:

Strive to live holy at all times. No matter how much you fast, if you still live unholy life, you will not increase in Holy Spirit. He does not dwell in unholy temple.

6. WORSHIPPING:

Please, find a quiet place where you can worship God, in the presence of the Holy Spirit and do it regularly. Remember the Lord said those who must worship God must worship Him in Truth and in Spirit. Be in the Spirit everywhere you are. Praise Him. Sing to Him. If you cannot sing aloud, sing in your heart. Be guided by what the bible says in Ephesians 5: 18-19

18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

7. WATCHING AND PRAYING:

When you study bible, The Holy Spirit is speaking to you. when you pray, you are speaking to Him. Also, watch. When you watch, the Holy Spirit will be revealing the deceptions of the time to you. He will also give you biblical interpretations of what are happening all around the world.


SUMMARY

The Holy Spirit wants to go. He is already telling the Lord to come. The wickedness of this generation is too great. Humanity is too sinful for Our Comforter. Everyday, He convicts and convicts all men to repent but we harden ourselves the more like in the days of Noah. The Holy Spirit is sounding His voice everyday that The Lord Jesus should come. He is busy sounding His voice in the buses, on the streets, in the churches, in your dreams, and in all places and situations that The Lord Jesus should come.

Bride of Christ, can you hear that the Spirit is already calling The Lord to come? If you cannot hear His call, not to talk of joining Him to call The Lord to come, then, perhaps, you don’t have The Spirit inside of you or you are not part of the bride or worse still you are too attached to the activities of this world that you fail to realize that The Spirit is already making the final call. The last seconds are ticking away now. Come and team up with The Spirit of God that you may say; even so, come Lord Jesus and receive the blessed assurance.


ACTIONS

Are you an elect of Christ? Are you truly saved? Are you on the narrow road? Do you want to make the rapture/heaven? If your answers are yes, then,

• Make all efforts to heed the warnings of Jesus Christ.

• Be watchful. Pay attention to what is happening around the World and see whether they match what the scriptures say.

• Be filled with the Holy Spirit and be in the Spirit all the time.

• Fast, consecrate yourself, run away from sin and worldliness.

If your answers are NO, then you can repent today. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord.


PRAYER OF REPENTANCE

If you will like to confess your sins and accept Jesus to save you, say the following prayers, sincerely and faithfully and make a determination never to commit sin again.

Lord, Jesus Christ, I am sorry for all my sins. I confess them with my mouth and I ask for mercy. Please forgive me and wash me in your blood. I accept you as my personal Lord and Saviour. Write my name in the book of life. Give me power over sins and fill me with your Spirit and Joy of Salvation. When rapture trumpet sounds, let me make it. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus name, I pray.

Begin to read bible. Begin with the book of John. Pray always. Fast regularly (you can begin with once in a week). Look for a bible believing church where they teach repentance, holiness, salvation and fellowship with them. Pray before you go. Don’t just go to any church. There are a lot of deceptions out there. If you need our assistance in this direction, you can email us. Always run away from SINS.

• Lord, Jesus Christ, baptize today with your Holy Spirit and fire.

• Holy Spirit of God, anoint my eyes with eyesalve, that I may see.

• Holy Spirit of God, fill my lamp with excess oil.

• Lord Jesus Christ, give me the grace of the wise virgin.

• From today, Holy Spirit, I team up with you till the Lord comes. Even, so, come

TOPIC: PREPARING FOR RAPTURE (PART2): WASHING YOUR GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

TEXTS: REVELATIONS 7: 9-17

REVELATIONS 7:9-17 (KJV)

9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.

13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?

14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.

16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.

17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.


INTRODUCTION

One day, I got an email from one lady-evangelist that I exchange end-times email with. In the email, She narrated a testimony she had on one fateful day. The Lord used the testimony to bless and inspire me a lot. I share the testimony as follows.

My friend said she just finished using the toilet and she was washing her hands in the basin. That was about the third time she used the toilet and she washed her hands, each time, after such use. As she washing her hands, she said she heard a voice, which she recognized, in heart. The Voice asked her ‘why are you washing your hands’? I just used the toilet. I am washing my hands to cleanse any germ I might have contacted. She replied. But, You washed your hand in the morning after using the toilet! The Voice reminded her. Yes, I did because I used the toilet in the morning. Anytime, I use the toilet I wash my hands to cleanse any germs I might have contacted. My friend replied.

Why then do you take the washing of your heavenly garment as less serious and unimportant? The Voice finally asked a question that totally caused my friend to have a change of orientation. Perhaps, my lady-evangelist friend never realized she had an heavenly garment that she needed to take its wash as serious as she washed her hands to prevent infection with germs. Perhaps, She realized she has not measured up to expectations in this regard.

Are you in the same shoes my friend was before she had a change of orientation? Do you know you have a garment God reckons with? Do you even know how to take care of this garment? What exactly is this garment for? How is this garment connected to Rapture? If you do not already know these things, this teaching plans to explore them. Or do you already know about this garment but are complacent in handling it? Why then do you take the washing of your heavenly garment as less serious and unimportant?


WHAT IS THE GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS?
To answer this question, let us see from the bible whether we can draw an analogy between types of garment and righteousness. We arrive at two major types as follows.

1) FILTHY RAG (GARMENT), Isaiah 64: 6a
6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags;

Here, God links a type of righteousness to Filthy rag (garment). If we are to interprete this verse, we can say that, if we are to liken our level of righteousness to the nature of garment we put on, then we can say that all of us are putting on filthy rag and this filthy rag make us, all, unclean. This was the state of any man before he knows JESUS CHRIST. All unrepentant sinners are still like this. No one has power to remove this filthy garment by himself unless He repents in Christ Jesus.

2) FINE LINEN (GARMENT), Revelations 19: 7-8
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
Here, God links a type of righteousness to Fine Linen (garment) and says those who will be raptured must be dressed in this garment (see Part 1 of this teaching). Unlike the filthy garment that is unclean, God says this type of garment is fine, clean, and white. When we give our lives to Jesus Christ and became born-again, our filthy rags were removed and we are dressed with the beautiful garment of righteousness, the fine linen. So when we say garment of righteousness in the remainder of this teaching, it is this FINE LINEN, clean and white that we are referring to.


DO YOU NEED TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS?

YES! There is a deliberate need to take care of your garment of righteousness because Jesus Christ says you must take care of it. Lets read Revelations 16:15

15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

Jesus Christ said in this scripture above that if you did not keep your garment, when He comes at rapture, you will walk naked and your shame will be seen. The phrase ‘keepeth his garments’ means exactly two things:

1) To keep your garment means to make sure you did not lose or remove your garment.
2) To keep your garment means to make sure your garment is in proper shape; not tattered, nor wretched.

If you lose your garment or remove it, and have nothing to wear, you will be naked and people will see your shame. Also, if you did not keep your garment very well and it became torn, people will still see your unclothedness and you will be ashamed.

The first case of removing the garment is for the backslider. The bible makes us to understand that Jesus Christ is our righteousness. We put Him (Jesus) on like garment. So, when a believer backslides, he has not kept his garment. He has removed Righteousness (Jesus Christ) altogether from his life. He has removed his garment.

The second case is for believers who have not backslided but have unconfessed and unforgiven sins in their lives. All these sins are defilement to them. They tarnish the righteousness of Jesus Christ that they put on as garment. Even though, they are still in Christ and they have not removed their own garments like the backsliders, their garments have become torn and filthy again. Soon, that filthy garment they put on will expose their unclothedness and people will see their shame.

Keeping your garment, like Jesus Christ said, will help you, believer, prevent yourself from the two situations above, arising from not keeping your garment. The next thing is to look how to keep or maintain (wash) your garment of righteousness clean and white. But before that, let us look at why we need to keep our garment clean and white.


IS GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IMPORTANT TO MAKE RAPTURE?

Yes! One principal requirement to making rapture is that we must possess garment of righteousness and that it must be holy, white and clean (not filthy) up to the last minute of rapture. Lets briefly look at why this garment and its condition are both necessary at rapture.

1) WITHOUT GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO MAKE RAPTURE Mathew 22:11-14

11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

From the text above, we see how God, The Father, will make the possession of garment of righteousness a prerequisite to be at the marriage supper of The Lamb.

2) IF THE GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IS DIRTY, STAINED OR FILTHY, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO MAKE RAPTURE Ephesians 5:27, Revelations 19:8-9

Ephesians 5:27
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Revelations 19: 8-9
8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.
9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

From the two scriptures above, we see that, to make rapture, God expects the garment of righteousness on us to have ‘no spot’, ‘no wrinkle’, ‘ no blemish’ but that it should be holy, clean and white; the exact state it was when we first surrendered to Jesus Christ. So, in order to know how to keep our garment of righteousness clean and white or how to wash it, first, we have to know what can make it dirty (unclean, spotted, wrinkled).


WHAT COULD MAKE GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS TO BE STAINED, SPOTTED, WRINKLED, AND DEFILED (DIRTY AND FILTHY)?

As we have already shown above that we were in filthy rags before we surrendered to Jesus Christ. These dirty rags just depict how spiritually dirty we were before holy God because of our sins. But when we give our lives to Jesus Christ, He washes away all the sins that brought filthiness to us. He took away the filthy rag and gave us spiritually fine linen of righteousness.

Let us consider 2 cases from the bible

Case 1, Adam and Eve (Genesis 3: 21);
When Adam and Eve fell through sin, they realized they were naked and became ashamed. Their sin exposed their unclothedness, and God put a garment made from the skins (supposedly from an animal) to cover them (Genesis 3:21). By this act, God covered the shame of unclothedness that Adam and Eve were exposed to, through sin. By this act, God laid an example of how Jesus Christ would be slained as a sacrificial animal (lamb) and cover our sin and unclothedness with the garment of righteousness, which is the blood He shed on the cross of Calvary. This was mercy from God. This is why the Bible says Jesus was slain from the beginning of the world, (Revelations 13:.

Case 2, Joshua, The high Priest (Zechariah 3:1-4);
Also, consider the case of Joshua the high Priest, (Zechariah 3:1-4), Satan had a legal right to accuse Joshua, the high Priest, because Joshua was adorned in filthy garment. It took God to rebuke Satan for Joshua's sake. God asked them to remove the filthy garment of Joshua. After removing this filthy garment, God said to Joshua that Joshua's sins had been forgiven him. God directly equated Joshua's filthy garment to Joshua's sin. Then, God clothed Joshua with fine linen. Can you see the sequence?

From the 2 cases above, we can see that is sin that can make a believer be without garment or make his garment dirty and filthy. What stains are on your own garment? How have you soiled your garment since Jesus Christ purchased it for you? Is it the stain of lusts, worldliness, and disobedience to God, immoral dressing or some other stains you have on your own garment?


WASH YOUR GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
As believers, we are not supposed to commit sins deliberately again. otherwise, we face the fierce wrath of God. However, any sin we commit unconsciously is still a sin and will still be a stain to our wedding garment of Lamb of God and must be washed away.

Our text above is very clear about how to wash our garments from stains of Sins. Revelations 7:9-14 above makes us understand that Apostle John saw the people that will make the rapture and all of them have one thing in
common; they have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Verse 14 can be expatiated as follows above.


• All those that made rapture washed their robes; This suggests that their robes were dirty, stained, spotted or filthy initially.

• All of them made their robes white; This suggests that they continued the washing of their robes till all dirts were removed.

• They washed their robes in the blood of Jesus.

All the actions above were done deliberately, not by accident. This verse, Revelations 7: 14 was what the Bible summarized in Revelations 19:7-8.

Revelations 19: 7-8
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

These two verses imply that the bride of Christ deliberately makes herself ready. So, you can see that to wash your garment is to make yourself ready. Will you wash your garment and make yourself ready? Will you come and wash your garment before Jesus comes? Wash! I say wash!


HOW TO WASH YOUR GARMENT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

How then do you wash your garment?

Any time you ask God genuinely for mercy and forgiveness of Sins (REPENTANCE) you are washing your garment. This repentance will help you wash away the stains of sins that have come into your life by carelessness, ignorance, or through any other means. These stains will hinder a believer from making rapture if they are not attended to. I do not encourage that a believer commit sin deliberately.

I wash my own garment by saying the following prayer as many times as possible everyday.

Lord, Jesus Christ, have mercy on me. Forgive me all sins. Forgive me all sins that can lead me to hell. Forgive me all sins that can deny me a place in heaven. Forgive me all sins that can make me miss the rapture. Wash me with your blood. Wash my body, soul and spirit. Wash me inside and outside. Wash my garment with your blood and prepare me ready for your coming. Cover me with your blood in Jesus name. Amen.

I say this prayer as many times as possible in a day, even if it is just for 1or 2 minute each time. Sometimes, I say this prayer as many as 10 to 15 times a day or as God allows me. I have attached this prayer to my use of water. Most time I use water for any purpose, I say this prayer. I encourage you also to say this prayer as often as possible in a day. We do not know the day nor the hour that Son of man will come and any little stain of sin will disqualify us. That is why you must wash in his blood all the time to stay blameless.

You can see that, contrary to some believers that say we do not need to ask for forgiveness of sins again apart from the one we asked on the day we give our lives to Jesus, we need to continue repenting till Jesus comes even though we are to avoid committing sins. You also must make conscious effort to run away from sin.


SUMMARY

We have seen that the issue of fine, clean, and holy garment for rapture cannot be waived. It is compulsory and you must wash your garment if you must make rapture, otherwise, people will see your unclothedness at rapture. Wash lust of the eyes, evil thoughts, anger, pride, worldliness that have stained your garments and make them filthy. Once again, wash in the blood of Jesus.


ACTIONS

Are you an elect of Christ? Are you truly saved? Are you on the narrow road? Do you want to make the rapture/heaven? If your answers are yes, then,
• Make all efforts to heed the warnings of Jesus Christ.
• Be watchful. Pay attention to what is happening around the World and see whether they match what the scriptures say.
• Be filled with the Holy Spirit and be in the Spirit all the time.
• Fast, consecrate yourself, run away from sin and worldliness.

If your answers are NO, then you can repent today. Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord.


PRAYERS

If you will like to confess your sins and accept Jesus to save you, say the following prayers, sincerely and faithfully and make a determination never to commit sin again.

Lord, Jesus Christ, I am sorry for all my sins. I confess them with my mouth and I ask for mercy. Please forgive me and wash me in your blood. I accept you as my personal Lord and Saviour. Write my name in the book of life. Give me power over sins and fill me with your Spirit and Joy of Salvation. When rapture trumpet sounds, let me make it. Thank you for saving me. In Jesus name, I pray.

Begin to read bible. Begin with the book of John. Pray always. Fast regularly (you can begin with once in a week). Look for a bible believing church where they teach repentance, holiness, salvation and fellowship with them. Pray before you go. Don’t just go to any church. There are a lot of deceptions out there. If you need our assistance, we can recommend for you, if you email us. Always run away from SINS.

• Lord, Jesus Christ, wash me in your blood.
• Lord, Jesus Christ, remove filthy garment from me.
• Lord, Jesus Christ, adorn me with fine linen.
• Lord Jesus Christ, wash my wedding garment in your blood and make it ready.

Preparing For Rapture, Part 2, is coming on the way. It is a continuation of this. Part 1 is just an intro.

igbeke: Where in d Holy Bible were we taught anything dat is against earrings?
Job was said to be a perfect and upright man before God. JOB1:1
Yet when God was.to restore him, EARRING OF GOLD was among the presents he was given. Job 42:11
Did u ever wonder what he did with them?
ask me and I.will tell u.
Are we supposed to kno The Bible.more than The Almighty God that gave it?
Well this is my opinion:
moderation is what the Holy Bible asked us to apply in everything we do.

God did not give Job golden earrings. His friends gave them to him.
Did bible condemn wearing of earrings at one point or the other? Yes.
what I can suggest is that the OP should pray, possibly with fasting to God to hear by himself.
As for me, we dont use them in my home. It is better to be sure than to gamble.
The fact that many people dont even want to drop them shows they may be idolising them.

JesusisLord85: I love your teaching on holiness. May God bless you.

Regarding the rapture, I do not believe that this event will take place before the great tribulation. The saints will endure this period.

I wrote a post on this in a another thread. This is not an issue of salvation for those who remain upright.

https://www.nairaland.com/1371041/christians-around-during-great-tribulation/1

Shalom

Amen. May God bless you too.

I have never said that rapture would take place before the great tribulation. When it comes to the time of rapture relative to the great tribulation, there are 3 major schools of thought among Christians. they are listed below. Before, I mention them, let me also state that the 2 words TRIBULATION and GREAT TRIBULATIONS are used interwovenly by some christians for the purpose of preaching. For the purpose of classification below, when I say tribulation, I mean the great tribulation.

1. PRE-TRIBULATION : This school of thought believes that the rapture would have happened before the last 7 years great tribulation during which the antichrist would rule. They believe that the church will not witness the great tribulation. they believe the 7 year great tribulation will commence immediately after rapture.

2. PRE-WRATH: This school of thought believes that the church would witness part of the great tribulation but would be raptured at the beginning of it before God pours out His fierce wrath and anger

3. MID-TRIBULATION: This school of thought believes that the church would be raptured in the middle of the great tribulation, about three and a half year into the 7 year great tribulation.

But for me I take my stand with the second classification, PRE-WRATH.

JesusisLord85: Nice post. Not that I agree with all that you say (especially the rapture talk).

Shalom

Please, what is it you dont agree with about the rapture. May be, I need to study and correct myself. thank you.

JesusisLord85: for the benefit of readers, please can you tell us, as scripture defines it, what sin is, so that they may escape judgment

The Opening Post defines SIN.

Isaiah 1 : 18

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

God is a reasoning God. He would not want you to be damned. He has provided a way of escape for you in Jesus Christ. Would you reason with Him today and seek forgiveness of your sins. Remove all those mountains in your heart and be humble. Surely, He will heal you of your sins.

Jesus is coming. turn away from sins. prepare in holiness and righteousness, that you may be found worthy to escape all that is coming upon the earth and to be able to stand before the Son of Man.

Kitay: Txn Sir, God Bless u Plenty.
God will help us in Jesus name.
And by God's Grace John 10:29 will be fufilled in our lives in Jesus name.

Amen. thank you for the prayer.
God will hold us firmly till the end with His right hand of righteousness in Jesus name.

TOPIC: PREPARING FOR RAPTURE (PART1)

TEXTS: REVELATIONS 19 : 6-9

REVELATIONS 19:6-9 (KJV)

6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.

7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and HIS WIFE HATH MADE
HERSELF READY.

8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.

9 And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

INTRODUCTION

The day of rapture is the day of marriage of our LORD, JESUS CHRIST; the day HE will be spiritually married to HIS wife that HE loves so much, The CHURCH. This is a marriage that will be consummated in heaven. This event is supposed to be the blessed hope of true believers at this time.


As most earthly marriages are done with full preparations from both the groom and the bride, this marriage is no exception as regards preparations. I hardly hear of marriages that are done on impromptu. Before marriages, the parents of both bride and groom take a good time to prepare in advance. The bride takes time to select her wedding gown, her wedding shoes and other items ahead of time and ensures they are in good condition before the day of wedding. The groom does no less. He selects his wedding suit, wedding shoes, wedding rings and other items.


As the wedding day draws nearer, both the groom and the bride put on hold any activity that can hinder their wedding. They begin to put finish touches to their preparations. At this time, the only agenda on their schedules is how to conduct a successful wedding. They continue like this until the marriage is eventually hosted.


Once again, the marriage of Our Lord, JESUS CHRIST, is no exception. GOD, THE FATHER of THE GROOM, JESUS CHRIST, is busy perfecting the plans for the marriage of HIS SON, JESUS CHRIST. The Groom, too, is preparing. The MAIN AGENDA on the calendar of GOD, for now, is this wedding of HIS SON. All pointers indicate this.


But, is the wife preparing for this wedding? Many Christians, over time, have disapproved that believers need to consciously prepare for this wedding. When you try to sensitize some believers, they quickly put up a defence for their non-preparation and reply that nobody knows the day. What an excuse for failure is this?


If we examined our text above, we would see that the whole heaven begin to rejoice for 2 reasons: 1) the day of the wedding is come, and 2) the WIFE hath MADE HERSELF READY. The wife was not made ready. She made herself ready. It takes conscious effort to make oneself ready. It takes self preparation.


But why would the whole heaven be rejoicing because the wife is ready and not because the groom is ready? There are two simple reasons. 1) The bride is the cynosure of all eyes in a wedding ceremony 2) Once the bride is ready, it is most certain that the wedding can now hold. Any believer that consciously refuse to make herself ready will be ashamed because she will not be worthy of that wedding.


Thank God. The wedding has not been held, yet. We can now consciously begin PREPARATIONS FOR RAPTURE.

ALL ARE PREPARING FOR THE BRIDE

It is disheartening that majority of believers are not preparing for rapture, the wedding of the Lamb of God. On this all-important day, the earth and all that will not make this wedding, will be impacted in a way that will be too difficult to reverse. All preparations are in top gears but the bride for whom these preparations are done are not sensitive.


May be we should sensitize ourselves on the levels of preparations that are going on in both heavens and on earth so that we can know that we need to prepare, too, perhaps we have been complacent.


• GOD, THE FATHER, is preparing.

HE is busy sending invitations to you, even you. Mathew 22:1-4.

1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said,

2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain KING (GOD, THE FATHER), WHICH MADE A MARRIAGE FOR HIS SON (JESUS CHRIST),

3 And SENT FORTH HIS SERVANTS TO CALL THEM (INVITE YOU) THAT WERE BIDDEN TO THE WEDDING: and they would not come.

4 Again, HE SENT FORTH OTHER SERVANTS, saying, Tell them (YOU) which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and ALL THINGS ARE READY: COME UNTO THE MARRIAGE.


• JESUS CHRIST is preparing.

HE is preparing to descend with a shout (of joy) to meet HIS wife. 1 Thessalonians 4:16.

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:


• The DEAD in CHRIST are preparing.
They are busy preparing to lead the bride to the wedding banquet. 1 Thessalonians 4 : 16

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:


• The ANGELS are preparing
They are busy preparing to receive the bride with joy into the wedding banquet. Revelations 19: 7
7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.


• The HEAVEN is preparing.

The heaven is busy preparing to open door for the bride to enter. Revelations 6: 14

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

• The EARTH is preparing.
The earth is preparing to reel to and fro like a drunkard to usher in the Lord (massive earthquake). Isaiah 24: 19-20, Revelations 6: 12
19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly.

20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.


• The SUN is preparing.

The Sun is busy preparing to give off its light. Joel 2: 31, Mathew 24:29, Revelations 6: 12 31

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.


• The Moon is preparing.

The Moon is preparing to turn to blood. Joel 2 : 31, Mathew 24 :29, Revelations 6 : 12

31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.


• The Stars are preparing.
The Stars are preparing to cast down. Mathew 24 :29, Revelations 6 :13
13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.


• The Mountains are preparing.
The Mountains are preparing to be moved out of their places. Revelations 6 : 14

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.


• The Trumpet, even the Trumpet, is preparing.
The Trumpet is preparing to sound to usher in the royal bride of Jesus. 1 Corinthians 15: 52.
52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.


IS THE BRIDE PREPARING FOR HERSELF?

We can see that the stakes are high, very high, when it comes to the issues of rapture (the marriage of the bride, the church to the Lord, who redeemed her). Preparations have reached advanced staged.

But what is the bride that all these things are done for, doing? She is busy fornicating with the world. She goes about soiling her wedding garment all around. She makes no effort to put anything in place. She is busy copying the footsteps of her senior sisters, the 5 foolish virgins. She pays no attention to time. She will not learn from her senior sisters, the 5 foolish virgins, who wept bitterly for missing their groom, until she also weeps and gnashes her teeth for missing her own, too.


WILL YOU RATHER PREPARE?

Do the descriptions above fit you? Be sincere with yourself. If the answer is yes, then you are not preparing for rapture. If you continue like this, the door of the wedding banquet might just be shut against you. Mathew 25: 10

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

But there is good news, the wedding has not been held. The door has not been shut. You can still enter if you prepare for it. Though, you are lagging behind in your preparation, you can still make it if you hasten up and make up for the time you lost wandering about. It takes time to prepare your wedding garment.

Let the preparation begin.


SUMMARY

This part 1 of the teaching is not really meant for diving into the preparation for rapture but to try to convince you that you have to prepare for rapture, unlike contrary opinion, and to provide a platform for your self-evaluation of how much you have invested towards this wedding.

Now I believe that you have been convinced that there is a deliberate need for you to prepare for the wedding of the Lamb of God. Also, I believe you can evaluate how much you have put into your own preparation.

Part 2 of this teaching, to be released soon, will try to explore biblically, how God expects us to prepare for this wedding. Please join us and let us prepare together.

Dear Nairaland Evangelists!

I have observed that most threads aimed at winning souls are often hijacked by impostors to cause confusions. These impostors deliberately introduce posts that will make these evangelistic threads end in arguments, abuse, harsh words, vain words and the likes.

Dear evangelist, please, be warned. dont let these impostors, whom i suppose are working for another lord, cast a stumbling block on your path through arguments and abusive words. DONT JOIN THEM IN ANY ARGUMENT OR ABUSE. I warn you, the Lord is going to judge all our actions including what we do on nairaland. BEWARE OF ANY ACCLAIMED BELIEVER who will never use the opportunity of nairaland to evangelise. All they want to do is a show of knowledge. Pls dont let them make you twice a child of hell. please be guided by the scripture below 1 John 2 : 18-19

8 Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last time.

19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.

dear evangelist, when you make a thread to evangelise and these impostors post a distraction, abuse or argument reply, DO NOT REPLY THEM. JUST IGNORE and continue your evangelism. The Lord, Jesus Christ, can use any medium, even nairaland, to save any soul. If it is only one soul that is saved through our efforts on nairaland, then our efforts are worthwhile.

However, instead of spending all time replying to threads on Nairaland, lets go and harvest for the Lord, Jesus Christ, millions of souls that are ripe for harvest, outside. The labourers are few. LET US ENTER MARKETS AND PREACH JESUS. LET US ENTER BUSES AND PREACH JESUS. LET US ENTER GARAGES AND PREACH JESUS. LET US PREACH JESUS WITH SMS. Time is short. every second that ticks before the sounding of the trumpets matters so much to the Lord. Do not let us waste them.

JESUS is coming. Behold, I have warned you.
