Proverbs 14:27 Authorized (King James) Version 27 The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.
Today, I want to give you some insights into the Rapture from what was given to me by the Lord.
The Lord let me in on a conversation that He was having with a pastor with prophetic abilities about me. No names. I didn't hear the pastor's question to the Lord about me. But it's easy to figure out what it was from the Lord's answer to Him about me. I heard the Lord say to Him,
"Darrin's going to be in the ground when I come. That's where I want him because He's not ready to meet Me".
You can figure out what the pastor asked him about me by that answer. The pastor asked the Lord if I was going to be in the Rapture, like my prophetic messages say that I am. The Lord answered yes to him. But through death, not life.
What I'm talking about is 1 Thes. 4:16, 17.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 Authorized (King James) Version 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: 17 then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
This Bible passage says that there are two ways to heaven in the Rapture. Death and life. Some will die and make it to heaven through death. The dead in Christ will rise first. Others will die and make it to heaven standing before the Lord. Those that are alive and remain shall be raptured together with us in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.
Those that make the Rapture through death, were planted in the earth by the Lord to bring forth fruit for God through death.
John 12:24-25 Authorized (King James) Version {Paraphrased} 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you {says the Lord Jesus}, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
Those that live to see the Lord return in the Rapture, are accounted worthy to make the Rapture through life.
Luke 21:36 Authorized (King James) Version {Paraphrased} 36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always {says the Lord Jesus}, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
From the Lord's prophetic message about me in the opening of this blog, combined with John 12:24, 25, it's easy to see that those that die before the Rapture, have the honor of making it to heaven before the living do. The dead in Christ will rise first, and those living to make the Rapture, will meet us in the clouds, after us.
This Rapture will happen in about two seconds. Accord to 1 Cor. 15:51, 52, the Rapture will happen in an instant. In the twinkling of an eye. The Lord told me that this is about two seconds. One second to raise the dead in Christ, and one second to take the living in Christ after them.
The Lord said that I'm not ready to meet Him in life through the Rapture. But I can make it to heaven in the Rapture, through death. Therefore, death is for those who are not ready to meet the Lord in the Rapture through life. The dead in Christ have the honor of making it to heaven before the living. The dead in Christ go a second before the living do. The dead in Christ arrive to the clouds of heaven, first. Those that meet the Lord in the Rapture through life, have been accounted worthy to escape the evil and to stand before the Lord in the Rapture when the Lord comes.
I would rather have that honor of standing before the Lord in the Rapture. But, who knows in how long that will be (Mt. 24:36)? I'm going home through death. And I understand what the Lord means in John 12:25,
"...he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal."
Since I met the Lord, I love Him more than life. I hate this life because I want God more than life. Knowing Jesus is better than life. I won't love anything more than the Lord. I'll fight every desire in me and everything in life to keep Jesus first in my heart and to love Him more than it.
Those that hate this life to keep God first, got no feelings for no one and nothing. You can't marry them. Live with them. It's hard to meet them. Those that love this life, get married and make a life.
