Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation 1:7
1:7 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.
This is announcing about Jesus’ second coming in the glory of The King of kings or the Bridegroom of Heaven on glorious clouds.
There are two big things will happen when Jesus comes a second time on glorious cloudsas follows:
We must be aware for some will enter the great multitude with sound of praise and others in mourning. Thus, in order not to enter the mourning; we must mourn a lot starting from now. So we can join to the great multitude with the sound Alleluiaon glorious clouds.
There are three kinds of mourningas follows:
God blesses us.
Revelation 1:7
1:7 Behold, He is coming with clouds, and every eye will see Him, even they who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. Even so, Amen.
This is announcing about Jesus’ second coming in the glory of The King of kings or the Bridegroom of Heaven on glorious clouds.
There are two big things will happen when Jesus comes a second time on glorious cloudsas follows:
- There will be mourning, misery, grief even perdition internationally for those who refuse or pierce and do not believe in Jesus who died and pierced on cross. They will be left and destroyed with the world when Jesus comes a second.
- There will be heard the voice of a great multitude from people of God internationally who believe in Jesus who has been dead and pierced on cross.
Revelation 19:6-7, 9
19:6 And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For theLord God Omnipotent reigns!
19:7 Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.”
19:9 Then he said to me, “Write: ‘Blessedarethose who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’” And he said to me, “These are the true sayings of God.”
We will be lifted up on glorious clouds with the sound Alleluiato greet Jesus who comes a second time and we will enter the marriage supper of the Lamb of God.
We enter the world through physical marriage and will go out through spiritual marriage that is the marriage supper of the Lamb of God. And then we enter the Thousand Years Kingdom of Peace until the New Jerusalem.
We must be aware for some will enter the great multitude with sound of praise and others in mourning. Thus, in order not to enter the mourning; we must mourn a lot starting from now. So we can join to the great multitude with the sound Alleluiaon glorious clouds.
There are three kinds of mourningas follows:
- Mourning and crying in night prayer or all night-long prayerso we will not enter spiritual hunger.
Lamentations 2:18-19
2:18 Their heart cried out to the Lord, “O wall of the daughter of Zion, let tears run down like a river day and night; give yourself no relief;give your eyes no rest.
2:19 “Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches;pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord.Lift your hands toward Him
for the life of your young children,who faint from hunger at the head of every street.”
The spiritual hunger is hunger for the Word of God.
Amos 8:11-14
8:11 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the LordGod,“that I will send a famine on the land,not a famine of bread,nor a thirst for water,but of hearing the words of theLord.
8:12 They shall wander from sea to sea,and from north to east;they shall run to and fro, seeking the word of theLord,but shall not findit.
8:13 “In that day the fair virginsand strong young menshall faint from thirst.
8:14 Those who swear by the sinof Samaria,who say,‘as your god lives, O Dan!’ and, ‘As the way of Beersheba lives!’they shall fall and never rise again.”
The spiritual hunger means that there is no satisfaction and the result is grumbling a lot until one falls and never rises again. It means falling in sin up to the peak of sin which is the sin of eating drinking (smoking, getting drunk, drugs abuse), marrying-being given in marriage (sexual sins with all its kinds), keeping and living in sin, and enjoying in sin until there is perdition forever.
Revelation 5:4-5
5:4 So I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open and readthe scroll, or to look at it.
5:5 But one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to looseits seven seals.”
Let us mourn and cry a lot to get the revelation of the Word or spiritual food so we can enjoy and obey Him.
The result is we feel the joy of Heaven that cannot be affected by anything in the world. When there is revelation of the Word, there is a way from God, the way out from any troubles even the impossible ones. We can live in righteousness until perfection for the power of Word that is able to stop sin. - Mourning and crying in fasting prayerso we can minister God until the end line (until we die or Jesus comes a second time).
Acts 20:19-20, 24
20:19 serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears and trials which happened to me by the plotting of the Jews;
20:20 how I kept back nothing that was helpful, but proclaimed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house,
20:24 But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself,so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
2 Corinthians 6:4-5
6:4 But in allthingswe commend ourselves as ministers of God: in much patience, in tribulations, in needs, in distresses,
6:5 in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings;
‘Nor do I count my life dear to myself’ means cannot be hindered by anything and struggling in ministry.
Why do we have to mourn and cry in fasting prayer? Because a third of the stars will be drawn by the dragon’s tail and thrown to the earth.
Revelation 12:4a
12:4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth.…
Dragon’s tail refers to false teaching.
Isaiah 9:14
9:14 The elder and honorable, heisthe head;the prophet who teaches lies, heisthe tail.
Dragon’s tail also refers to temptation in all aspects.
It also refers to sexual or uncleanness sinbecause there is reproductive organ at his tail.
Thus, we must mourn and cry in fasting prayer so we can endure in ministry until the end line. We will not be drawn by the dragon’s tail.
Revelation 1:16
1:16 He had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenancewaslike the sun shining in its strength.
Thus, we are in God’s right hand.
Psalms 16:11
16:11 You will show me the path of life;in Your presenceisfullness of joy;at Your right handarepleasures forevermore.
The result is we experience the pleasures of God forevermore. - Mourning and crying in worship prayer.
Zechariah 12:10-14
12:10 “And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of grace and supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced. Yes, they will mourn for Him as one mourns forhisonlyson,and grieve for Him as one grieves for a firstborn.
12:11 In that day there shall be a great mourning in Jerusalem, like the mourning at Hadad Rimmon in the plain of Megiddo.
12:12 And the land shall mourn, every family by itself: the family of the house of David by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of the house of Nathan by itself, and their wives by themselves;
12:13 the family of the house of Levi by itself, and their wives by themselves; the family of Shimei by itself, and their wives by themselves;
12:14 all the families that remain, every family by itself, and their wives by themselves.
Worship prayer together with other members in congregation and family, or individually is to see and mourn for Jesus’ side that is pierced where the blood and water come out.
John 19:34
19:34 But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out.
The blood refers to repentance; we stop sinning and return to God. We die to sin.
The water refers to the water baptism. The true water baptism is one who dies to sin or repents is buried in water together with Jesus and rises in newness of life, the heavenly life. We experience renewing especially heart renewal.
Ezekiel 36:26-28
36:26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.
36:27 I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and dothem.
36:28 Then you shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; you shall be My people, and I will be your God.
Heart is renewed to become obedient until the flesh does not sound anymore. This is the sign of the life that is shepherded.
Obedience is stretching out our hand to God and He will stretch out His hand. We will live in God’s hand. The result is as follows:- We are being brought to the land of Canaan, to a land flowing with milk and honey.
In spiritual meaning, milk signifies growth and honey is strength. The meaning is as follows:- Growing strong and of good courage in spiritual.
- Holding fast to the true teaching Word.
- Hoping to God when we face problem and temptation.
- Worshiping God.
In physical meaning, we live in abundance until we are able to give thanks to God. God’s hand is able to make everything good and beautiful in time.
1 Chronicles 19:13
19:13 Be of good courage, and let us be strong for our people and for the cities of our God. And may the Lorddowhat isgood in His sight.” - Growing strong and of good courage in spiritual.
- The power of healing that heals us physically and spiritually.
Exodus 15:26
15:26 and said, “If you diligently heed the voice of theLordyour God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For IamtheLordwho heals you.” - God’s hand is able to exalt us in due time.
1 Peter 5:5-6
5:5 Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves toyourelders. Yes, all ofyoube submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”
5:6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time,
God’s hand makes us successful in due time.
God’s hand renews us until we are perfect when He comes a second time. We will be lifted up on glorious clouds and enter to the marriage supper of the Lamb of God. And then we enter a thousand years Kingdom of peace until the New Jerusalem.
- We are being brought to the land of Canaan, to a land flowing with milk and honey.
God blesses us.
