Pivotal Point

A pivotal point, as defined, is a crucial moment, event, or idea that significantly influences the outcome of something. It acts as a turning point that determines what will come next. 

     A few of my fleshly pivotal points have been:  

Graduation

Employee

Marriage, 

Birth of a child

Divorce

    But there has been one pivotal point in my life that rises far above any other in my life, and that is my salvation experience where I recognized that Jesus died for me and that He is my Savior and Son of God. 

     There will be another fleshly pivotal point in death, but I look forward to yet another pivotal point. There will be one with the Rapture,  where Jesus returns to take his children to be with Him. I will be included!

     My prayer is that whoever has not accepted Christ, do it now, before it is too late in death or before the Rapture.  I want you to "Go With Me." 

 

 

Capture The Rapture

After reading The Great Disappearance by Dr. David Jeremiah, I was inspired to write the following: 

Capture The Rapture 

 

No one knows the time,

but God’s children listen for the chime

for when Jesus will appear in the air.

A trumpet will blair,

but not all will hear.

There will be a mighty shout, 

“Come Forth!”

 Graves will open from the East, West, South, and North. 

Bodies will be disbursed;

All will happen unrehearsed!

First, the dead in Christ will rise to the skies;

Wind will gather the scattered dead. 

In that day, there will be nothing to dread;

Only a reunion in the sky with Jesus’ cry.

Quickly, the living will ascend and disappear-

away from others standing near.

Bodies will join souls;

Joy will erupt with Jesus in control.

What a sight for those who see!

What a joy to fall at Jesus’ knee! 

He came to set the body free

and to heal in the great reveal;  

No flaw, only awe-

No scars or mars, no prison bars-

It will be a mystery for those left behind

who remained blind.

They did not see this great event 

or where the people went.

Hours will be spent in confusion

With no right conclusion.

God had come to get His own

leaving the blind to moan and groan.

Look up; Look ahead!

All will not remain dead.

For God’s children, there will be a rapture; 

 a bodily capture. 

This will be the great disappearing,  

Leaving the left-behind, confused and fearing.

“In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.” 1 Corinthians 15:52 KJV

The Rapture

Scripture tells us “no one knows the day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father” when the Rapture of God’s children will take place. In Dr. David Jeremiah’s book, The Great Disappearance, he states that there “will be a resurrection command, ‘Come Forth’. It will not name a single individual but will be heard by every believer in every grave around the world. All those tombs will empty,  and the resurrected believers will fly skyward.”

     The Rapture excites me! What a reunion there will be! I am secure in the knowledge that I will be part of it. 

     Following is a little acronym of the Rapture.
