Many Layers—God’s Mercy!

Those Who See the Season!!
Those Who Know Today is the Day of Our Salvation!!!!

And suppose the one inside answers, Don’t bother me. The door is already locked, and my children and I are in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything. Luke 11: 7

This is one of my favorite!!!! stories in the Bible.
Because it shows God’s depth of mercy and guarantee for mercy and provision in many levels.

On the surface, in this story, we are told we can ask and our Father will provide good gifts for us.
For He already let His son die to make us His eternal kids, being provided by Him daily and nightly.

But another layer means, we can ask for as much of the Holy Spirit, a good gift, that we need.
As much as we need and that God guarantees if we ask, He will provide Him.

But another layer I just discovered.
Is for those left behind.

God is the one in bed.
We His children, those who have believed before the rapture, are in bed already.

The door to Heaven is locked for those who have been left behind.

For they are asking to borrow bread, daily bread, for three days, which is an allegory of Jesus Christ, who is the daily bread, and lived in a borrowed tomb for three days.

They are asking for faith, for receiving the Holy Spirit, for them and for a friend, after the door is locked.
Jesus tells us the parallel in the ten virgins story that we know the door to Heaven is going to lock at some point and people will be left out-those who don’t believe in Jesus Christ.

But God is letting us know that anyone who asks during the tribulation, will be guaranteed to be saved too.

That He will still send the Holy Spirit, getting up because of the shameless audacity of those asking down here to be saved, that He will get up and still save them.

Not that I want anyone in the whole world to go through this season of tribulation, where death and vultures eating dead bodies will reign.

But it is so we can know His ever great mercy for anyone, anyone who calls on His name.

That this is the season to choose, who we want to follow for eternity and who we want to spend eternity with.

May everyone reading this, and everyone who is anyway connected to you, be saved long before this world wide trial comes to test every inhabitant on the earth.

May every single person you love, you know, you like, you have ever met, or even hate, hear this truth of Jesus Christ, and receive Him that they not have to go through this trial, but instead come with all who believe in the loving arms of the savior before this season is over.

May we know that we know that we know, this is the season to choose Him.

May we know that we know that we know the great mercy of our Father, who truly wants all people to be saved and with Him in eternity.

May you know that you know that you know if you are reading this and the Churches are empty and there was great sweep of people right before major world-wide disaster, and that Israel is under attack by every nation in the world,,,

that you may that you know that you know, you can call on Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior right now!!! and receive Him, coming to spend eternity with the Father, and life in the place you were called for, the Kingdom of God before the end, where the world will be judged by God and our abilities to choose our eternal destination no longer exists.
