RAPTURE BY JOHN SHAW
If you read song of Solomon 5. You will see a picture of the bride of Christ.
This picture reveals the state of the church in these last days.
She is broken, bloody and lying half dead in the street.
Why? Because the teachers, watchmen, priests and prophets put them there and are still doing so today.
Read mat 25:1-13. Parable 10 virgins.
It prophesies the church will fall asleep.
Ezekiel 37:1-14
The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which was full of bones,
And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, there were very many in the open valley; and, lo, they were very dry.
And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest.
Again he said unto me, Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the LORD.
Thus saith the Lord GOD unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live:
And I will lay sinews upon you, and will bring up flesh upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and ye shall live; and ye shall know that I am the LORD.
So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone.
And when I beheld, lo, the sinews and the flesh came up upon them, and the skin covered them above: but there was no breath in them.
Then said he unto me, Prophesy unto the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.
So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up upon their feet, an exceeding great army.
Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.
Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
And ye shall know that I am the LORD, when I have opened your graves, O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you in your own
land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken it, and performed it, saith the LORD.
The house of Israel includes us because we are grafted in the vine.
The bride is dead. The house of Israel has fallen asleep.
But there is still hope Jesus wants to breath His life into you.
This is what the Lord is saying to the church.
Mat 25:6
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
The prophetic call of God is going out to the church.
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him
Don’t let your lamp go out. You must have the extra oil. Be a wise virgin today.
The Lord is saying be ye holy for I am holy.
Start to get ready now or Jesus will remove your lamp stand completely.
My bible tells me that all of the virgins where asleep.
What a shame, when Jesus comes for His bride she will be asleep, terrible! Reminds me of Matthew 26, when His disciples fell asleep in the garden of Gethsemane. Jesus said watch and pray lest ye fall into temptation. He also said watch and pray lest he come and find you sleeping. If you are a called to be a seer, a watchman then Jesus is saying watch and pray lest ye fall asleep.
It says nation will rise against nation. At the moment the stock markets are crashing. America is in debt with China. England is in debt with America. All the nations are in debt with each other and cannot pay each other back. Money is easy because it just gets printed. But food and resources are low. Oil is low. The countries have nothing to pay off their debts. This could start a nuclear war which could usher in the return of Jesus! The church is so asleep it doesn’t even know!
Jesus is coming like a thief in the night and the church isn’t ready.
The thing is, the wise ones could afford to go to sleep because they had oil in there vessels and when the cry came, they where ready.
The foolish did not have the oil. They thought they had everything right in life. They thought they where ready for Jesus’ return.
But we must go beyond a thought to the place where we know we are ready.
The dry bones are coming alive. Let God is breath His life into you.
The remnant is arising. The broken and bloody bride is being healed.
The Lords army is arising. Get ready today you might not have tomorrow.
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
The call is now.
Ask the Lord to quicken you, ask Him to reveal His plan to you. Ask Him to give you divine insight and open your eyes and ears like Ezekiel.
Get eye salve so you may see and white raiment so you can clothe your nakedness.
Keep the fire ablaze and walk in the spirit.
Be ye holy for as He is holy.
The door of the ark wont be open forever. Seek Jesus now.
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
Isaiah 43:19-
Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
The Lord is doing a new thing. Be apart of it. Seek His face, seek Jesus.
I will now speak about the rapture.
Romans 8:11-
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
Christ is the Holy Ghost. It is the eternal life abiding in us. It is the same divine life flow that raised up Jesus from the dead!
Without it, without the extra oil you will not go into the rapture.
We must burn now or we will burn in hell.
The rapture happens from within.
We must be holy or will miss it. We must have the extra oil.
It is the anointing that breaks the yoke. Without it we are dead.
Meet with Jesus today for behold he is coming.
Luke 17:21 says that the kingdom of God is within.
We must not defile within.
Mark 7:20-23-
And he said, That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man.
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.
1 Corinthians 3:16-17-
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
Do not defile the temple of God. Be ye holy as He is holy or you will miss the rapture.
The rapture will occur from within us.
The reason for the rapture is to quicken our bodies on earth. The wise virgins were also asleep. But when we are quickened we will never sleep again, we will never die, we will never feel pain or sorrow, we will weep no more, we will be changed, we will be changed in the twinkling of an eye. The dead will be raised out of the graves and the true church of God will receive new glorified bodies. Praise His name.
1 Thessalonians 4:14.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
That verse is speaking about the dead in Christ and also the wise virgins.
When we sleep we sleep in Jesus. For to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. We sleep in the presence of Jesus. But in heaven nothing can sleep in his presence. That is why the anointing breaks the yoke.
Remember -
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
The word says when we see Him we shall be like Him. We will be raptured from within in the twinkling of an eye. Even if we die we wont miss it, because the dead in Christ shall rise first. They will see Him and be changed from within.
The bride dwells within.
Genesis 2:23-
And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
God took eve out of the body of Adam.
The church of Christ is the second eve and she does not know it.
She must hear the voice of God saying -
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
Jesus is the second Adam and must be reunited with His bride.
When the rapture occurs as I said before we will have new glorified bodies and listen to this.
Revelation 19:11-14
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
We are that army of God. We will have our new glorified bodies. We will be clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
The armies will come forth and there will be a demonstration of the sons of God.
Be part of the army today.
His eyes were as a flame of fire.
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
To be honest I don’t want to get on the wrong side of that on judgment day.

Seek Jesus now. Get ready. Jesus is coming for a clean and spotless bride. Get the oil in your lamp and keep it there. Let go of the world. Keep your eyes on eternity.
Be holy as He is holy.
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
Meet with Jesus today, you might not have tomorrow.
God bless.
