2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
3 And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. verses 2-8
By the end of this fourth seal, a quarter of the earth's population will be dead. That's TWO BILLION people. Think about that number.
WE ARE SEEING SIGNS OF TRIBULATION NOW! We are seeing pestilence, quakes, famine, and war. We are seeing the One World Government and One World Religion rise. We are seeing the Mark of the Beast technology already being implemented. We are seeing unfathomable immorality.
They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Mark 16:18
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Luke 21:36
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Revelation 3:10
19 Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.
20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.
21 For, behold, the Lord cometh out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain. Isaiah 26:19-21
The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come. Isaiah 57:1
The Hebrew word for “taken away” is “asaph” which means to “hide in a place of safety” and is a common agricultural phrase describing storage of crops at final harvest.
God has promised His faithful Bride that she will NOT suffer His wrath, that Satan will never overcome her, that God offers an escape to those who are counted worthy and who persevere. The entire Bible is about a wedding, about a Father who seeks a Bride for His Son. Jesus used "wedding" language when He spoke to His disciples about His return. The Jewish wedding lasts 7 days. Daniel spoke about a final week or period of 7 years called Jacob's Trouble, in which God would turn His full attention back to His chosen people, Israel.
Please check out the articles under Prophecy below. Things are heating up in Israel like they never have before. Russia, Iran, and Turkey are issuing warnings to Israel. (Ezekiel 38) Hamas is actively rioting on the Temple Mount. Rockets have been fired, people killed. It's a big mess. This, to me, says that God is starting to deal with Israel again very soon. Which means the rapture is closer than ever!
So, hang in there, Saints!! The main thing now is that you keep pursuing a close relationship with Jesus. Pursue holiness and be in prayer constantly. Be ready to witness to anyone the Lord leads you to. Don't get weary. Keep running the race. We are almost at the finish line!
