Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 16:17-21 is about the pouring of the seventh bowl of God's plague into the air until the following things happened:

  1. A loud voice came out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, "It is done!"
  2. There were noises and thunderings and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred until Babylon was divided into three parts, every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

Revelation 16:20
16:20 Then every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

Isaiah 42:4
42:4 He will not fail nor be discouraged, Till He has established justice in the earth; And the coastlands shall wait for His law."

Every island fled away. It means losing hope to the true teaching Word. All reject the true teaching Word or there is no true teaching Word.

Proverbs 29:18
29:18 Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law.

If there is no revelation of the Word or the true teaching Word, the church will be wild.

Exodus 32:25
32:25 Now when Moses saw that the people were unrestrained(for Aaron had not restrained them, to their shame among their enemies),

It means being like a horse which is not restrained or the wild one, namely the servants of God who are not shepherded by the true teaching Word or cannot eat the repeated true teaching Word or the shepherding Word.

The facts found in it are as follows:

  • Relying on the power of the flesh or the world, namely the riches, intelligence, and position.
    Isaiah 31:1
    31:1 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, And rely on horses, Who trust in chariots because they are many, And in horsemen because they are very strong, But who do not look to the Holy One of Israel, Nor seek the LORD!

    In consequence, they do not look for God or the true teaching Word. They do not rely on God.

  • Living in the fleshly desires that peak on the sins concerning eating-drinking such as smoking, getting drunk, and drugs abuse and the ones concerning marrying-being given in marriage.
    Jeremiah 5:8
    5:8 They were like well-fed lusty stallions; Every one neighed after his neighbor's wife.

    Revelation 17:4-5
    17:4 The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication.
    17:5 And on her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

    Such things aim at the woman of Babylon or the false church that will get the punishment of God up to the perdition.

Therefore, we must struggle seriously in the true worship prayer and reading the Bible so that the congregation receives the revelation of the Word or the true teaching Word that contains the wisdom of God.

The congregation must also struggle seriously in the true worship prayer and reading the Bible so that we have the opened heart for understanding the revelation, believing, and obeying it until it becomes the wisdom that leads us to face the condition of the world on the last days.

If the church can receive the revelation of the Word, the life will not be wild, but neat or in order spiritually and physically.

Ephesians 2:21-22
2:21 in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,
2:22 in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

We enter the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain or the edification of the perfect Christ's body.

There are two revivals of Holy Spirit as follows:

  1. The revival of Holy Spirit at the early rain, namely the revival in the Gospel Word or Good News that preaches Jesus' first coming for saving the sinful men, so they can believe Jesus and get the salvation and blessings for adding the quantity of the members of the body of Christ.

  2. The revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain, namely the revival in the true teaching Word or Bride Tidings [2 Corinthians 4:3-4] that preaches Jesus' second coming for sanctifying the saved people until being as perfect as Jesus is for adding the quality of the church.

Revelation 6:1-2
6:1 Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals; and I heard one of the four living creatures saying with a voice like thunder, "Come and see."
6:2 And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.

The beginning of the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain is in the opening of the first seal.

Revelation 19:11,16
19:11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.
19:16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

At the end of the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain, Jesus is the rider of the white horse. He is the King of all kings who is always victorious.

Thus, the revival of the edification of Christ's body is the revival which is led by Jesus Himself through the true teaching Word or the Bride Tidings.

Therefore, we must hold fast the true teaching Word [Proverbs 29:18b] or else many who arefirst will be last, and the last first.
The results of the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain are as follows:

  1. The revival of sanctification by the true teaching Word.
    What is sanctified?

    • Heart and mind.
      Matthew 15:19
      15:19 "For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts(1), murders(2), adulteries(3), fornications(4), thefts(5), false witness(6), blasphemies(7).

      The heart and mind are sanctified from the seven hidden sins in heart. It begins from the bad or evil thought up to the blasphemy, namely blasphemy to the true teaching Word. There is no hope to the Word anymore and it causes the lamp to be quenched. The life is without any control until entering Babylon which will be destroyed.

      If the heart is sanctified from the seven sins, the lamp will be burning and our life becomes the light of testimony.

    • The sinful deeds up to the peak.
      Galatians 5:19-21
      5:19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness,
      5:20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,
      5:21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

      Being sanctified from the fleshly deeds, we will result in the nine fruits of the Spirit or live in the anointing of Holy Spirit.

      Galatians 5:22-23
      5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
      5:23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

      Our life becomes sweet.

    • Meaningless words.
      Psalm 149:6
      149:6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand,

      We are sanctified from gossips, slanders, and so on until there is no lie. It means that all sins have been punished until we do not stumble in words, but being as perfect as Jesus is.

  2. Experiencing victory over victory.
    Revelation 6:2
    6:2 And I looked, and behold, a white horse. He who sat on it had a bow; and a crown was given to him, and he went out conquering and to conquer.

    Revelation 19:11-12
    19:11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.
    19:12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself.

    Every victory with the Lord is signified by a crown.

    James 1:12
    1:12 Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

    Those who are victorious over the temptation will get the crown of life because of loving God more than anything.

    1 Peter 5:4
    5:4 and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glorythat does not fade away.

    The crown of glory is for those who are victorious in the shepherding, namely being able to be shepherded well and correctly until the end line.

    1 Thessalonians 2:19
    2:19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?

    It is up to the crown of joy or the crown of rejoicing, namely we are victorious with God until being the bride of God who is ready for entering the marriage supper of the Lamb.

    Song of Solomon 3:11
    3:11 Go forth, O daughters of Zion, And see King Solomon with the crown With which his mother crowned him On the day of his wedding, The day of the gladness of his heart.


  3. The revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain is described as the last journey of Jesus to Jerusalem.
    Mark 11:1-2
    11:1 Now when they drew near Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, He sent two of His disciples;
    11:2 and He said to them, "Go into the village opposite you; and as soon as you have entered it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has sat. Loose it and bring it.

    The target s the donkey or the Gentiles. Thus, the Gentiles are used by God in the revival of Holy Spirit at the latter rain. It is the mercy and trust of God to the Gentiles.

    The requirement is that the colt must be tied. The young refer to the young men or the people who have just received the Bride Tidings as well as the people who are always renewed by the Bride Tidings. The old people must be careful not to have fever like the mother of Peter's wife.

    Genesis 49:11
    49:11 Binding his donkey to the vine, And his donkey's colt to the choice vine, He washed his garments in wine, And his clothes in the blood of grapes.

    The donkey must be tied to the true Vine. It means that the Gentiles must be shepherded to the true teaching Word.

    Mark 11:7-9
    11:7 Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their clothes on it, and He sat on it.
    11:8 And
    many spread their clothes on the road, and others cut down leafy branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
    11:9 Then those who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: "Hosanna! 'Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!'

    The facts found in the Gentiles' being used in the edification of Christ's body are like a donkey on whom Jesus sat as follows:

    • The revival of faithor spreading the clothes and leafy branches as the food.
      Matthew 6:31-32
      6:31 "Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'
      6:32 "For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things.

      It means that there must be no worry, especially about the daily needs such as food and clothes as well as the future life.

      We are able to give. It begins from returning the possession of God or the tithes and offerings. We can also give to the work of God and others who are in need.

      The church of the Macedonians was in poverty, but they were able to give.

      Matthew 6:33
      6:33 "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

      We can prioritize God or heavenly things more than all worldly ones. We can be faithful and fervent in spirit in committing the service and ministry to God.

    • [Mark 11:9] The revival in worship.
      It is the same as the revival of fully surrendering to God until the flesh is torn or the Veil is torn and we get the renewal of life from the fleshly men to the spiritual ones like Jesus is.

      Matthew 21:5
      21:5 "Tell the daughter of Zion, 'Behold, your King is coming to you, Lowly, and sitting on a donkey, A colt, the foal of a donkey.'"

      Being meek refers to the ability to receive the teaching Word, how hard it is, or not keeping the false things.

      John 7:6
      7:6 Then Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

      The time of God has not yet come for helping us so that there is always time for us to do the introspection in our life and surrendering fully to Him or believing and entrusting our life fully to Him.

      Romans 8:32
      8:32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

      So, the time of God already comes for helping us and performing the miracle for us.

      Mark 9:23-24
      9:23 Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."
      9:24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, "Lord, I believe;
      help my unbelief!"

      For example, a father or shepherd was doubtful to the true teaching Word until the child was epileptic, namely living in sins up to the peak, the destruction of marriage and children, and sufferings. Believing the Word, the disease will be healed. The destroyed things will be good. Impossible things become possible.

      The woman with the flowing of blood for twelve years or impossible disease can be healed. The rottenness in sin and meaningless words can be healed until the words become good or the words of testimony. The destruction of marriage and children can be restored.

      Shadrach, Meshach, Abed-Nego faced temptation, false teachings, and destruction. Nevertheless, they kept on worshiping God although they would not have been helped. As a result, God is able to solve impossible problems and give the beautiful successful future life.

      It is until we are changed to be as perfect as Jesus is for welcoming His second coming.

God blesses you.
