by Robert Anthony Nov 21st 2024 In 2019 while in prayer, the Lord impressed upon me what 2020 would be like and then at the end of 2020 and again at the end of 2021 and 2022 the Lord repeated Himself, "These are the days of the Revealing." (Every December since 2019 the Lord has reminded me of this prophecy.) Let me explain. We, in the church world, are aware that the book of Revelation is really pointing to end of days events - and is a book of prophecy chronicling what the end will be like. Is that a pretty fair assessment? The word Revelation comes from the word, "Apokalypsis" also referred to as the "Apocalypse". This Greek word literally means, "To lay bare, totally exposed, making naked. A disclosure of Truth. A Manifestation. An Appearance." In context mostly the Revelation is "The Revealing of Christ Jesus our Messiah!" Chapter upon Chapter Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, is being revealed in greater measure throughout the prophesies of John in his book. But what is also quite revealing is what this implies to us in these last days! These Last Days can be summarized as both the days of Great Shaking (Hebrews 12:25-29) but also as The Days of The Great Revealing ! And these two concepts actually work together. God is shaking to Expose, to make Manifest, to REVEAL! The Shaking is to show the world, to borrow an older expression, "What is What". When He shakes it all up, everything gets revealed. For instance, during Covid, didn't we all learn alot about our nation, our leaders, our church leaders, etc.!? The shaking that was Covid revealed a lot to us all. It even revealed a lot to ourselves about WHO WE REALLY ARE. (As scary and difficult as it is to see - God used this event to show us much about ourselves, didn't He!?) God knows exactly what He is doing. It goes without saying, as He is sovereign, but it's a worthwhile expression in light of what I am writing - God knows exactly what He is doing in these Last Days. But remember, God is love. There is much more to the story - its not all bad. Hang in there.... I will continue to explain. God is not only revealing the bad: to purge the dross out of us, to expose the evil of the earth, to make known the hidden deeds of men, etc. maybe even moreso - God is revealing HIS GOODNESS UPON THE EARTH! Now I will be the first to admit, thus far in these last days we have really seen plenty of the evil being revealed and it might seem like, "where is the good in all of this". But remember, the story is just unfolding!! But then again, what news do we really have of what's going on across the world?? Do we get much Good News?? Perhaps there is more goodness being revealed than we know. Having said all that, some of the best scriptures in the whole of the Bible are getting ready to be fulfilled. Here's one of my favorites that God will fulfill before the end, "For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God." (Romans 8:19). But couldn't that scripture also be written, "For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for THE GREAT REVEALING of the sons of God."!? And if, in truth, that is the case - What an exciting time to be alive!! Remember, there is much hidden about these last days. Much has been written about, but of everything we know there is much more that remains hidden, that God will reveal in His time. Look at how many times throughout scripture God says He will hide from us what He has planned until the end. He tells Daniel! Daniel 12:9 "And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are  closed up and sealed till the time of the end." He told Daniel, NO ONE WILL UNDERSTAND THESE THINGS UNTIL THE TIME OF THE END - When I choose to reveal them. Look at what He told John, "And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not." (Revelation 10:4). We think we know so much of God's plans, many have made millions writing books, forecasting these things. But God said, "It will be sealed until the end." The encouragement I will end with is this: We are all going to stand before Him, to everlasting life or to everlasting contempt, but we will all stand before Him. There will be a judgment. Revelation 20 is very clear, "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book  of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works." Knowing this, that we all will stand before God one day, what manner of life should we therefore seek to live!? Standing in front of God, wouldn't we all love to be there unashamed, without guilt or regret!!? Wouldn't we all love to be so pure, so innocent that we might run up to Him, arms wide open and grab a hold of our Salvation, but face to face, and say, "It was all for you, Lord. I did it all for You!!" Truly friends everything I write, and speak, and do is with the intent to encourage us all that we might find ourselves there on that day, with Him, without fear, ready to receive the kingdom that He went to go and prepare for us!! And to be with Him, forever. Time is short. Can't you feel it? It's as if time itself has sped up! God is doing a quick work upon the earth and He said He would, many times, He told us, "And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened." (Matthew 24:22) And again in Luke 21, "Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled." So buckle up friends! It's going to continue to be a wild ride! But remember what He told us, thru the prophet Daniel, "And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits ." And again Daniel prophecied, "And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever." And again, "Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand." The righteous have nothing to fear. The wicked should be afraid, because their time comes to an end and soon there will be left no more time for repentance. All things will soon be fulfilled. And the saints of God will be rewarded!! Now go out, saints, and bring many to the knowledge of salvation - And into friendship with our God and Father, thru His Son, Jesus Christ! There has never been a better time, Amen!!? Much love. Robert
