Great (Terrible) Day of the Lord

Zephaniah 1:14-18

14 The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly. 15 That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness, 16 A day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high towers. 17 And I will bring distress upon men, that they shall walk like blind men, because they have sinned against the LORD:
and their blood shall be poured out as dust, and their flesh as the dung. 18 Neither their silver nor their gold shall be able to deliver them in the day of the LORD's wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of his jealousy: for he shall make even a speedy riddance of all them that dwell in the land.

Jude 1:6
6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.

Revelation 6:12-17

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?

Revelation 16:12
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. 13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. 14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

Matthew 24:29
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

Mark 13:24-25

24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, 25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.

THE SEVEN TRUMPET ANGELS Rev. 8:6 — THE THREE WOES AND THE SEVEN LAST VIAL PLAGUES — God gives us a short but amazing picture of His last prophetic mysteries! This has never been written exactly like this before — With the finishing up of the Seals the judgments of God have been mixed with mercy (Rev.) 6:12) And the Great Tribulation begins to come to a climax, blending into the time when the seven Trumpet angels sound. (Rev. 8:6) Judgment now becomes more severe! And during the Tribulation God has already dealt with the Tribulation saints. The Bride has been gone for at least 3% years before this time! (But the Tribulation Saints felt the wrath of the anti-christ) but now he himself is about to be visited with swift judgment and divine retribution! The Jews are being sealed and protected as the last drama of the world takes place! The anti-christ tribulation is only a burning match to the fire of the mighty explosion and convulsions which the world is getting braced for! “AS THEY ENTER THE GREAT AND NOTABLE DAY OF THE LORD — “Now the anti-christ and his hordes of satanic worshipers will feel the most powerful plagues ever poured out in the world! The Tribulation is one event when God deals with other sheep that are not (of His Bridefold). They are tribulation saints and Jews, etc.) “But the Great and notable Day of the Lord is different, in that He deals fully with the anti-christ beast system! (the 144,000 Jews are protected Rev. 7:3-4) The two great world shaking events are separate and distinct. One can glance quickly (at Matt. 24:29) which says after the tribulation of those days the world shall be darken, etc. The total darkening of the sun and moon and when the stars fall (separate the two events) in (Rev. 6:1217) — The Tribulation blends into a different event called the Great Day of the Lord, and climaxes Armageddon where celestial convulsions and explosions take place. Not many know the events are different, but they are.

THE BEGINNING OF THE LAST SORROWS AND ENDING OF THIS PRESENT WORLD — Read carefully as I bring each timely event and place it in the right position. Upon entering the great day of the Lord the judgments begin to pick up momentum on the nations when the first 4 Trumpet angels sound. (Rev. 8:7, 12, 13) After this it intensifies even more, as the “first woe” and the fifth Trumpet sound (Rev. 9:1, 3 and 12) And the locust demons cover the earth, with power like scorpions! Now the sixth Trumpet sounds and the “second woe” starts (Rev. 9:13, 16) With this 200,000,000 demonic infernal horsemen are turned loose! And a third part of man are killed! (Rev. 9:18) With this the judgment is about to reach an intense crescendo, as God will now begin to gather them to Armageddon (Rev. 16:16) where the blood flows 5 feet high for 200 miles! As the “third woe” starts quickly when events blend into the 7th Trumpet (Rev. 11:14-15) with the sounding of the 7th trumpet angel, swift judgment follows! (Now remember all of Gods children are out. (Rev. 15:2) and now the 7 most powerful plagues the world has ever seen begin, (Rev. 15:7) Watch this carefully. The seven vial plagues of the 7th Trumpet are more devastating and more universal in scope than the first 6 Trumpets. They become almost unbelieveable under the third woe! (The difference is degree and in scope each.) For instance the second Trumpet affects only one third of the sea. (Rev. 8:9) where in the second vial of the 7th Trumpet turns all the sea into blood and destroys all life in it!! (Rev. 16:3) Remember the first six trumpets only have one plague each, but the 7th Trumpet releases seven last vial plagues, universal in scope!! (Rev. 16:1) With this the whole world is in gross darkness, as men gnaw their tongues in pain and seek death! No repentance left. All life in the sea perish as the mountains and islands flee away! And men crawl beneath the rocks of the earth. “BEHOLD THIS IS THE DAY OF THE GREAT GOD ALMIGHTY.” Possibly 2 billion people die before the plagues are stopped! The world as we know it is changed. When the seventh angel sounded Jesus said it is done! (Rev. 16:17) (Moses was a prophetic type of this only his plagues were minor to these! (Ex. 8)

Here are the events that are fulfilled under the last 7th vial plague (Rev. 16:17-20)

The main events are:

(1) Great atmospheric explosions with thunders and lightning!

(2) The greatest earthquakes the world has ever known, as Jerusalem is divided into 3 parts!

(3) The great cities of the nation fall.

(4) Great hail falls.

(5) Mystery Babylon receives the fullness of God’s wrath.

(6) The destruction of the anti-christ and the chaining of satan! Also the shame of the nations who did not die. Zech. 14:16.
