Rapture 48

A Rapture of Thanksgiving

February 18, 2007

Joel Akin

In everything give thanks. This is the will of God concerning you. In all things submit to the Lord and He will bring it to pass. For the will of the Lord is for men to pray. And the Lord seeks those who pray. For His heart is toward those who seek and those who pray. And if men pray they put their heart before the Lord. And those who pray seek God. And in the prayer of the mighty there is justice.

God does not fear the weight of time nor does he fear the weight of men. Men will rise up and say "Who is this man that he would set a time for the rapture? For he is no one and no one is who we will listen to."

And so men will reject me when I say I know when the return is. And if I repeat it and tell you then you will spread it far and wide. So I will leave it with the Lord. For I know now the time and I have shared it with my mom. And she and I know it. And if she shares it people will say "You cannot set a date." But I know now that is not scriptural. For in the end day there will be those who understand that the time of the end is not meant to be of judgment but of rejoicing. In the day the Lord returns it is meant to be a day of celebration. It is the one time when men take a cigar and purchase them and it is the one time when men pray and it is one time when men weep. And it is the time of the end which is coming.

And I know why it must happen and I know when it will happen and I know that it is Gods plan for me to share it. And Gods desire that I prepare men for the second return of Jesus to earth.

And it is Gods desire that I tell those who wait. And they are meant to understand why. So in a way it is not meant to be kept secret. Some do wait but God wants this one known. So I can give you an exact date as specified by the liberty of Jesus Christ. I can give you the date specifically as needed. And I can tell you that if it comes in small or large is up to us.

For the Lord will arrive with a bang and with a loud explosion. And there will be things that will happen on that day unlike any in all of history. And God will set the time and will set the date. And He has given a date to my mom and she was the one who saw it. And she was the one who spoke of it while I was speaking to her. And she saw it as a celebration. A time of wing and a time of prayer and a time to be thankful. And so if America will listen I will tell them the day of the return is the day the Pilgrims landed. It is the day the people of earth give thanks and it is meant to be on that day.

For God will restore to those who are broken and to those who weep and to those who cry. And he will set back those who are filled with arrogance. For some will say this cannot be. That no one knows the day or the hour. And I would reply hasten and give ear; for no one knows the day of arrival. And I would reply with absolute confidence. "You are right and you need to listen carefully for I tell you the time. And the time is there for all to see and all to understand. And it is a time you will see approaching."

For we did not understand and we turned our back on the date for we were angry. We became angry with the Lord for we had forgotten that God works with us. And none of us wanted to know. None of us wanted to see. None of us wanted to understand. For we had all gone astray. Each to his own home. And we had prayed and sought God and prayed and sought for wisdom. And we had fallen and failed to see that we were meant to know the day but not the hour.

Yet I will say that when you see the end rejoice and lift up your head for your redemption draweth nigh. For all the signs were there only we had no one to interpret them. We fell asleep and we fell into weeping. And we fell into sorrow and we fell. And no one roused us and no one told us and no one showed us that we had arrived.

And it was the Lord Himself who will come forth with a shout as of a bride coming out of their chamber. And He will lift up a new standard. And the standard will be carried to men and to those who find it. And they will seek and they will find. And men who seek shall find and those who knock the door shall be opened unto them. And if you will heed I will tell you when. And then you will have to understand that I am wore out from prayer and warfare. But I will tell you and I will share with you and I will tell you why. Only I will do that later because you must think.

What will it mean to have God back? Especially since He is returning on or about November 22, 2007. Thanksgiving Day in the USA. And that is the expected time of arrival.
