If you are a Doomsday Prepper – Stock Up!
If you are prophetically unaware – Wake Up!
If your head is buried in the sand – Stand Up!
If you are a constant naysayer – Shut Up!
If you are a steadfast dreamer – Stay Up!
If you are constantly under the prideful influence of religious, pagan, agnostic, or atheistic delusions – Sober Up!
If you have grown numb to the tolling of the bells warning of impending doom on the horizon – Listen Up!
If you’re a belligerently-bitter, easily-insulted, emotionally unstable, finger-pointing, screech-n-weeping snowflake constantly complaining or spewing forth rage-filled hate….then you really need to repent of such foolishness and – Man Up!
If you are an Israel-hating, God-denying, evolution-believing, coexisting clown & politically-correct Pinocchio, it’s high time you face the truth & quickly – Wise Up!
And if you are still rebelliously rejecting Christ’s eternal pardon, better go ahead & Buckle Up
and brace for persistently relentless, in-your-face impact!
However;If you are wisely investing in things eternal – never Give Up!
If you share Christ’s heart for the salvation of the lost & pray with urgency for them to hurry & accept His free gift of everlasting life – don’t even begin to Let Up!And if you are excitedly awaiting our Lord and ‘Blessed-Hope’ to retrieve us as He says, before the immense and terrible calamities to come – then LOOK UP! 
The ‘beginning of sorrows’ and increase of the ‘spirit of lawlessness’ as well as intensity and frequency of biblical ‘birth pains’ means that continued normality has full well run its course. So – take heed and get your Heads Up.For the Believers, these are ‘Go-Time Signs’ that foreshadow our instantaneous departure to ever be with our Lord and Redeemer.Once this Church Age of God’s Spirit and unmatched Grace ends in the ‘twinkle of an eye’ then the world will know – TIME’S UP!Once all the unborn and young children are plucked from the womb and earth, the world should have a resounding understanding that all purity is gone and hope for a future is lost and that their court date with the ultimate Judge has just been scheduled.For the many multitudes who will be left behind, you will face the worst times the world has experienced since the ‘Great Flood’ and the downpour of 6,000-degree hail-fire upon Sodom & Gomorrah. The advantage they had is that they died quickly. Oh, but you may not have that luxury.
And in those days, men will seek death, and will not find it; and they will long to die, and death shall flee from them.
And the locusts looked like horses prepared for battle……and they have tails and stingers like scorpions, and their power to injure men for five months is in their tails. ~ Rev. 9:6-10
The force of divine fury and release of ancient evils to come will be so far from imaginable, it will be a frantic frenzy of panic and a time of immense anguish and utter despair.While THEY are saying, “Peace and safety!” then DESTRUCTION WILL COME UPON THEM SUDDENLY like labor pains upon a woman with child, andTHEYWILLNOTESCAPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!~ 1 Thessalonians 5:3.
For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together right up to the present. ~ Romans 8:22
In Matthew 24, Luke 21, and Mark 13 we find the record of Jesus Christ’s Olivet Discourse to His disciples where He prophesied of the events that were to take place before His second coming.We find written in Matthew 24:6-8:
“And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and natural disasters (earthquakes, volcanoes, tornadoes, landslides, tsunamis, sinkholes, etc.) in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.”
All these signs are converging in exponential velocity just as a good portion of old and new testament scripture said it would. Just a decade ago, these weren’t even happening nearly at the rate of what is going on now.We are clearly in the condition now where the world can’t begin to fix any of the vast problems it has now and it’s only getting worse and at a breakneck speed that won’t slow down or settle before a Horde of restless and furious demons are let loose to inflict their ancient agenda as the gates of Hell get ripped asunder from their hinges.
Consider this; approximately 179,000 people die each day but during the Great Tribulation period it will shoot up to around 1.4 MILLION – PER DAY!. You will be one scared little statistic then as only about a sixth of the global population, at best, will survive. And even after that, when Christ returns, He will destroy the armies of the nations gathered @ Megiddo. And if you weren’t one of them then He will separate the sheep from the goats and only let in those who had maintained their faith (lamps full) during the waiting period that follows.
So, God asks you;
Proverbs 6:9 – How long will you lie down, O sluggard? When will you arise from your sleep?
Are you going to continue to roll over and ignore the reality of terrible turbulence that lies just ahead? Many are finally Standing Up and wiping the self-inflicted ignorance from their eyes and will join us and all the other saints of salvation in the Land of the Living.We are paying attention and awaiting our glorious redemption rather than avoiding self-intervention while remaining prone to perdition.
1 Thess. 5:6 – So then, let us not sleep as the others do who have no lasting hope, but let us remain awake and sober.
Here are just a sampling of God’s many irrevocable promises for those who trust in Christ >
Luke 21:28 – And when these things begin to come to pass, then LOOK UP, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Romans 5:9 – Since we have now been justified by the atoning blood of Christ, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through Him!
1 Thess. 1:10 – …and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.
1 Thess, 5:9,11 – For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ…. Therefore continue to encourage and build one another up, just as you are already doing.…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~However, God has clearly put forth many dire warnings for those who trust in this world and continue to reject the grace and salvation only available in Christ.It would serve you well for all of eternity to humble your heart & Listen Up because you surely can’t be such an imbecile to think that time will just Wait Up! >
Then the nations of the world will cry out “Lord why have you done this?”; they will finally be turned over to destruction and all those that have rejected God.
Matthew 24:21-22 – For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved:
Joel 2:1 – Blow ye the trumpet…, and sound an alarm…. let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;
Joel 2:11 – And the LORD shall utter His voice before His army: for His camp is very great: for He is strong that executeth His word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can endure it?
Isaiah 13:8 – They will be terrified, Pains and anguish will take hold of them; They will writhe like a woman in labor, they will look at one another in astonishment, their faces aflame.
Psalm 48:6 – Panic seized them there, Anguish, as of a woman in childbirth.
Jeremiah 30:6 – Why do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in childbirth? And why have all their faces turned pale?
Isaiah 3:9 – The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Furthermore, they even go so far as to flaunt it and celebrate such vile and reprobate behavior amongst each other
Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.
Isaiah 21:3 – For this reason, my loins are full of anguish; Pains have seized me like the pains of a woman in labor. I am so bewildered I cannot hear, so terrified I cannot see.
Luke 23:30 – Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.
Revelation 16:10-11 – And they gnashed their tongues for the great anguish that had come over them and blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their rebellious deeds.
So, Wake Up, Wise Up, and Look Up before your Time’s Up. Otherwise, Buckle Up and Shut Up because you certainly can’t say you weren’t warned!!For my fellow-Watchmen…..Hang in there, eternal Gangsters.
We are about to be CAUGHT UP so let’s encourage one another to CHEER UP as we GEAR UP regardless of the sadness, impatience, and frustrations we face. 
Keep shining His light as beacons of truth and hope before the doom and darkness sets in for the earth-dwellers who will soon be utterly left-behind.Take heart folks in remembering how the prophets never gave up in the OT, despite continued rejection and ridicule. And the Disciples never gave in when giving their lives for the cause of Christ. We certainly have it much easier than them and we are living in the most rewarding time to be called for such a purpose and for ‘such a time as this’!So, we keep prayerfully pressing on, trusting the Holy Spirit for further fervency and courageous endurance while standing resolute in our faith and vigilant in our hope as we participate in the gospel TOGETHER in JESUS’ NAME… and for HIS GREAT GLORY!
~ jeff{my Tough-Truth series, #13}….Here’s a relevant snippet from the article I will share in the comments below;”If you believe you’re a sinner, but that God sent His Son to die for your sins, and if you’ve accepted His death as having paid their full penalty, then you won’t have to face any of these judgments. One day soon, you’ll disappear with the rest of us and will be in Heaven with the Lord while all this is happening on Earth.You’ll see that your decision to believe in what the Lord did for you was the defining moment of your life and you will understand that it made you into one of the world’s ultimate winners. You’ll realize this is what God always intended for you to do and you’ll know why the Heavenly Host is erupting into joyous celebration as you come into the presence of the Lord.”~ Jack @ gracethrufaith >> https://gracethrufaith.com/end-times…/the-wrath-of-god/
