Biblical prophecy points to the most glorious Day on God's calendar--His rule on the earth. Psalm 2, Psalm 48, Zechariah 14, Revelation 19, Isaiah 63, and more picture this Day. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

After learning about the man-imposed famine in many nations, I'm re-thinking the first six seals of Revelation six. It could be that the first one, the one that conquered without a weapon, was the virus. The natural progression of the next five makes sense to me right now. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

Gog was a powerful king in the kingdom of Lydia in 680 B.C. The cities there included Magog, Meshech, and Tubal. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

Joseph in an Egyptian prison had leaned somehow to access God--we know this because of his concern for fellow-prisoners. How do we learn to love? The apostle Paul's definition of love in I Corinthians 13 is a great mirror for us anytime. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

No better example for character under stress than Joseph!

The writings of a visitor among Syrian tribes near Damascus in the late 19th century took me to the Song again today. The old Syrian wedding customs reflect those of Solomon's day. The bride and groom became "king and queen for a week"--sounds like the events following Christ's return! My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

The context in this video is Zechariah 2:5-13. God's zeal for Jerusalem shines forth in these verses! He Himself will one day be a "wall of fire" all around her. In that Day, the Day of the Lord when He returns to rule on the earth, His enemies will serve His people. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

When He comes, we will not be "whisked away" to heaven. We'll be with Him as He "makes war", "in righteousness and justice" (Revelation 19:11)! He is coming to avenge His enemies, and the enemies of the Jews and us. Time to choose sides! My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

I'm recommending Joel Richardson's newest book "Sinai to Zion"--an excellent explanation of the happenings at the return of Jesus Christ to earth. He meticulously covers the Hebrew prophets' writings about this event. Most followers of Jesus are waiting for a "rapture" to take us out, but Jesus wants us with Him as He avenges His enemies and releases His people, particularly the Jewish people, from the suffering caused by the Man of Lawlessness (II Thess. 2). Preparation of our hearts is in order. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

We need an overview of Hebrew prophets' writings on the Day of the Lord when Christ comes to "make war" in "righteousness and justice" (Rev.19:11). People, our life for eternity will be on a renewed and restored earth, not in heaven. The Millennial kingdom will begin at the return of Jesus, and heaven begins to come down--HERE!

When the temple began to be rebuilt by the released exiles in 538 B.C., the Prince of Persia was not happy. Daniel's experiences in Persia reveal the war in the spirit over Jerusalem--the war which continues to this day. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

Continuing with the song of Deborah, an exquisite song of praise and prophecy of the Great Day of the Lord, recorded in Judges 5, we see that Deborah was in the habit of singing. Her lifestyle enabled her to be fearless; I believe this is the reason she called Israel to go to battle against their enemies at a time when fear reigned over the land.

The saints of God are shown triumphant in the face of adversity--over and over in Scripture. I recommend singing as the proper response to God's goodness and also the avenue to the prophetic in difficult times. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

Encouragement for all of us who may have fear about what's coming upon the earth. Good news! Even if we're here for the Great Day of the Lord, the terrible day (Joel 2:11), HE will be our shelter. His presence is already drawing us in. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

Many think we will be "raptured out" before any trouble, i.e. before the man of lawlessness, or "beast", as he's called in the book of Revelation, appears. Many say, because of I Thessalonians 5:9, that we will not be around to see the judgments of God on the earth. Shouldn't we be prepared in case that's wrong? My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

God said there would be a time when kingdoms would shift, deviate from their right course, shake. Kingdoms are re-positioning themselves. Re-alignments are happening. God, "our refuge", is higher than any of it. "Refuge" in this Psalm means a place that is "inaccessible".

Major Bible Dictionaries and commentaries place Magog in ancient Turkey. Almost all Japheth's sons' families end up in this same area, as do Magog, Tubal and Meshech. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

Gog, the chief prince of Meshech and Tubal, was ruler of the ancient kingdom of Lydia, in modern-day Turkey. Ezekiel prophesied in the 6th and 7th century B.C.E., just a few centuries after the heydey of Tubal and Meshech, both located in west central Turkey. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

Because there is no actual mountain in the Plain of Megiddo, and because all the Hebrew prophets' writings have the final battle for the earth at Jerusalem, the translation of "mountain of Megiddo" for Revelation 16:16 cannot be correct. Here's why. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

From Psalm 139, His thoughts are more about me than all the grains of sand on all the beaches of the earth. This word in Hebrew is from the root, "companion, associate", and even, "purpose, aim". We are in God's thoughts to the extent that we are even His purpose. My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/

In our call to "pursue peace with all people" we speak blessing over even those with whom we disagree.The writer of Hebrews here (12:14-15) does not say to submit to tyranny, but to seek to bless individuals who may be trapped in sin. We bless with our tongues, not curse.

Revelation is not unlike any other record of the visions of prophets. Isaiah saw creatures, Daniel saw beasts, Daniel interpreted a tree as a king . . . we could go on and on. Revelation is to be read like any other prophetic book: with a heart to understand and interpret it according to what He has revealed already to His servants the prophets. Here, I take Rev. 17 and show four characteristics of this dominant evil figure shown to the apostle John to show that it's impossible for the "beast" to be a "system" or any other non-human entity.

Americans have been, unfortunately, schooled in Statism over the last 50 years. Those who have fallen for this belief system think that the State has the last say and is to be obeyed no matter what. This is totally contrary to the fact that ALL authority is given by God. Those who leave God out of their governing cannot have my submission.

A tag-on to the series, to summarize and bring together the information.

Will the people of Israel, the 144,000 and others, really hide in the wilderness in the future, as described in Revelation 12:6 and 14? What is the "Goshen Principle"? My website: https://www.carolynparr.com/
