Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation 9:12
9:12 One woe is past. Behold, still two more woes are coming after these things.
God reveals that two more woes are coming after these things. This is the warning and mercy of God for us.
Amos 3:7
3:7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
God reveals what will happen through the prophetic Word or the true teaching Word that reveals something that has not happened yet but will happen for sure in the future.
There are two kinds of the Wordas follows:
God reveals His plan to punish the world through the prophetic Word in order to give us the way out and shelter because He does not want us to perish but live in eternal life.
Unfortunately, a lot of men harden their heart and refuse His word, so they enter the punishment and perdition.
Only few people want to receive the Word, so they can be saved and have the eternal life.
Exodus9:18-19,24
9:18 "Behold, tomorrowabout this time I will cause very heavy hail to rain down, such as has not been in Egypt since its founding until now.
9:19 "Therefore send now and gather your livestock and all that you have in the field, for the hail shall come down on every man and every animal which is found in the field and is not brought home; and they shall die." ' "
9:24 So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, so very heavy that there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
Before God punished the land of Egypt, He had revealed His plan to Moses, His servant.
"Tomorrow"means that God's punishment will happen quickly.
There is "tomorrow". It means there is "today". It refers to the mercy of God.
Thus, let us use "today" to hear, obey, and do the true teaching Word, so "tomorrow" we will be freed from God's punishment.
Hebrews3:7-8
3:7 Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: "Today, if you will hear His voice,
3:8 Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, In the day of trial in the wilderness,
Do not harden our heart in order to be saved from the punishment.
Revelation16:21
16:21 And great hail from heaven fell upon men, each hailstoneabout the weight of a talent. Men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, since that plague was exceedingly great.
2 Peter3:10
3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.
Matthew24:12
24:12 "And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
The hailstone refers to the love crisis. As a result, the heart of men will grow cold and hard to believe the Word. It starts from refusing up to disbelieving the true teaching Word. For example, the sons in law of Lot disbelieved the Word that God would punish Sodom and Gomorrah.
Refusing or disbelieving the true teaching Word comes from loving or prioritizing something in this world that is suitable for flesh but it is not appropriate to the true teaching Word.
"Fire mingled with the hail"refers to the burning heart that is not satisfied by the true teaching Word. The Word is considered as harsh thing and one always criticizes It. The result is envy and hatred without reason up to disobedience. The disobedience towards God means unfaithfulness up to leaving the ministry. The disobedience towards others starts from marriage like harming other in marriage and falling in the lusts or sins up to the peak (the sins of eating-drinking and marrying-being given in marriage such as the wrong marriage, sexual affair, marriage without the blessing of the parents, mix marriage, marrying after divorce, up to marrying-being given in marriage).
As a result, the life waits for the punishment of God.
There are two places which are safe from the punishment of Godas follows:
Exodus9:31-32
9:31 Now the flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was in the head and the flax was in bud.
9:32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they are late crops.
Two things will happen when the punishment of God comesas follows:
God blesses us.

- The teaching Word or solid food. It tells about the second coming of Jesus to prepare His Bride through purification until being perfect and worthy to greet His second coming on the glorious clouds.

There are two places which are safe from the punishment of Godas follows:
- The house. It means that the household is the safe place because the love activity in it.
The children must obey the parents. The parents must not make the children lose heart. The parents must not allow children to be their mistake because it will make the children lose their heart, namely committing sins up to the peak. We must keep the love in the household. - Goshenrefers to the shepherding.
Exodus9:26
9:26 Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.
In order to be protected, we must stay in the shepherding or the Holy Place, namely the perseverance in doing the three main services to God as follows:- The perseverance in doing the General Serviceor the Golden Candlestick. It is the fellowship with Holy Spirit God in the anointing and gifts. We drink and experience the satisfaction, so we will not look for apparent satisfaction in the world.
- The perseverance in doing the Bible Study and Holy Communion Service or the Table Showbread. It is the fellowship with Son of God in the true teaching Word and the sacrifice of Christ. We eat, so we are strong to serve God until the end line.
- The perseverance in doing the Worship Prayer Serviceor the Golden Altar of Incense. It is the fellowship with Father God in His love. We breathe with the eternal love of God.
The shepherding is the place of love activity towards God. We can love Him more than anything. The love increases up to the perfection. - The perseverance in doing the General Serviceor the Golden Candlestick. It is the fellowship with Holy Spirit God in the anointing and gifts. We drink and experience the satisfaction, so we will not look for apparent satisfaction in the world.
Exodus9:31-32
9:31 Now the flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was in the head and the flax was in bud.
9:32 But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they are late crops.
Two things will happen when the punishment of God comesas follows:
- The economy crisis. It leads to Antichrist who uses the power of money. Antichrist controls the whole economy of the world. He offers help in one condition, namely worshiping him only. Thus, if nowdays we depend on money, we will definitely worship Antichrist.
Those who worship Antichrist areas follows:- The chaff Christians. They look for and get the satisfaction only by physical blessing and refuse to be purified or join the Bible Study Service. The fact found in it is earning money in illegal ways or the ones which are not according to the true teaching Word, unfaithfulness in the ministry, and prioritizing the physical things more than God.
The main purpose of God's redeeming us is that we can minister to Him and be filled by the true teaching Word. - The Christians who do not bear fruit. Their life does not change, but keeps the sinful blood and flesh man.
- The chaff Christians. They look for and get the satisfaction only by physical blessing and refuse to be purified or join the Bible Study Service. The fact found in it is earning money in illegal ways or the ones which are not according to the true teaching Word, unfaithfulness in the ministry, and prioritizing the physical things more than God.
- The revealing of the Word to help us from the economy crisis. We live by the true teaching Word or God.
John12:24
12:24 "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.
The wheat refers to the Christians that experience the death and resurrection together with Jesus. We die from sin and rise in righteousness life. We change from carnal man to spiritual one like Jesus, namely obeying the Word even though it hurts our flesh, so we can be shepherded.
The result is being glorified when Jesus comes a second time.
1 Peter2:24-25
2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness--by whose stripes you were healed.
2:25 For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
The matter of God has not done something, helped, made miracle, or punished yet means His longsuffering for us so that we can do introspection in our life and stretch out our hands to Him.
John21:18-19
21:18 "Most assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish."
21:19 This He spoke, signifying by what death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, "Follow Me."
1 Peter5:6
5:6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time,
God will stretch out His strong hands to lift us up from the death or sin valley. We can live in righteousness and holiness. His hands also lift us up from failure, so everything becomes successful and beautiful. His hands lift us up from impossibilities valley, so everything becomes possible. Moreover, His hands change us to become perfect as He is. It is the highest impossible thing. We are worthy to greet Jesus' second coming.
God blesses us.
