Amos 3:7-8
Surely Yahweh God does nothing unless He reveals His secret counsel to His servants the prophets. A lion has roared! Who will not fear? Yahweh God has spoken! Who can but prophesy?
Whenever Yahweh does something of significance in His dealing with the nations and His people He will reveal those things to mankind through various means. There are extraordinary things about to occur in this hour, for the great and terrible day of the Lord is at hand. There are few things which are spoken of more often than this event at the end of the age for it serves as a great climax to the rule of Satan over the earth and the beginning of the rule of Christ as the kingdom of this earth becomes the kingdom of our Lord and Christ.
The prophets of the Old Testament spoke much of this day and what would occur. What is described is unprecedented in the history of man.
Isaiah 2:12
For Yahweh of hosts will have a day of reckoning against everyone who is proud and lofty and against everyone who is lifted up, that he may be abased.
Isaiah 30:25
On every lofty mountain and on every high hill there will be streams running with water on the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Jeremiah 46:10
For that day belongs to Yahweh God of hosts, a day of vengeance, so as to avenge Himself on His foes; and the sword will devour and be satiated and drink its fill of their blood; for there will be a slaughter for Yahweh God of hosts...
Ezekiel 30:3
For the day is near, even the day of Yahweh is near, a cloudy day; it shall be the time of doom for the nations.
Joel 2:31-32
The sun will be turned into darkness and the moon into blood before the great and awesome day of Yahweh comes. And it will come about that whoever calls on the name of Yahweh will be delivered; for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as Yahweh has said, even among the survivors whom Yahweh calls.
Amos 5:18-20
Alas, you who are longing for the day of Yahweh, for what purpose will the day of Yahweh be to you? It will be darkness and not light; as when a man flees from a lion and a bear meets him, or goes home, leans his hand against the wall and a snake bites him. Will not the day of Yahweh be darkness instead of light, even gloom with no brightness in it?
These words of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Joel and Amos serve as a sampling of those things written about the day which is near at hand. It is evident that what is spoken of is no small event. We would therefore expect that Yahweh would provide many warnings of the day’s approach that His people might make themselves ready. This He has been doing through words of prophecy, through dreams and visions, through signs in the heavens and signs upon the earth. He has been giving a multitude of witnesses, yet tragically there have been few of God’s people who have heeded the signs. Rarely have any of these things been mentioned from the pulpit of the tens of thousands of churches that are found throughout the land.
The warnings God has given have been present for a considerable period of time. There were some who prophesied and shared visions of the things to come back in the 1950s. These words of warning were like to scattered drops of rain. They were rare and widely spaced apart. In the next decades the warnings continued. David Wilkerson began to speak of those things to come in the 1970s and 1980s. Dumitru Duduman also began to prophesy judgment and destruction upon the nations in the 1980s.
Over time the warnings increased in frequency as the day drew nearer. The 1990s saw a great increase of dreams and visions and signs in the heavens and upon the earth. Yet is has been since the events of 9-11-2001 when the towers fell in New York City, the seat of the United Nations and arguably the financial and media capital of the world, that the warnings have taken on a greater urgency and have been coming forth through signs of unprecedented scope. Did you note the words of Isaiah concerning the day of Yahweh and the towers falling?
Isaiah 30:25
On every lofty mountain and on every high hill there will be streams running with water on the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall.
Isaiah is not the only one to link the fall of great towers with the approach of the day of Yahweh.
Zephaniah 1:14-16
Near is the great day of Yahweh, near and coming very quickly; Listen, the day of Yahweh! In it the warrior cries out bitterly. A day of wrath is that day, a day of trouble and distress, a day of destruction and desolation, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and thick darkness, a day of trumpet and battle cry against the fortified cities and the high corner towers.
On September 11th, 2001 President George W. Bush was at an elementary school in Sarasota, Florida when the news of the towers being struck came in. Out in the Atlantic, making its way toward Florida was Tropical Storm Gabrielle. Gabriel is the name of the angel pictured by the church as blowing the trumpet of God. Tropical Storm Gabrielle was to pass directly over the heart of Sarasota a short time after the president departed. The trumpeter approached and the towers fell.
Since that date there have been an immense number of signs, many profound in scope. There are many I have not written about, and certainly there are those which escaped my notice, but were observed by others. I will set forth a chronology of events which have occurred since the towers fell. The sheer number of testimonies given to mankind is sobering. The day is very near, yet rarely have any of these things been mentioned in the church, and as a result many will be caught unaware and unprepared.

People of God, this is not an exhaustive list of signs, but I am exhausted just producing it. I have not mentioned the historic flooding in the midwest this past year, the hundreds of fires that sprung up overnight in California after the governor passed legislation in favor of homosexuality, the record setting rash of tornadoes in recent years, the earthquakes that have killed hundreds of thousands throughout the world, or a host of other things. Every day the news brings reports of business collapses, record numbers of newly unemployed, a precipitous collapse of the housing market with millions losing their homes, and a host of other signs of the times. And the worst has not even hit yet.
Are you heeding the signs? Are you walking with the Lord, embracing the cross, and walking worthy of Him, knowing that His appearing I His saints is imminent and the great and terrible day of Yahweh is at hand?
