31 Day Daily Devotional SERIES for the Garden of the Heart: DAY 18

 DAY 18
 LET THERE BE LIGHT to IT IS DONE
 
 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying 
to the seven angels, 
Go your ways, 
and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
 At that time shall Michael stand up, 
the great Prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble
such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, everyone that shall be found written in the book.
Revelation 16:1/Daniel 12:1

Last Plagues
 
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 
And God saw the light, that it was good: 
and God divided the light from the darkness. 
And God called the light Day, 
and the darkness he called Night. 
And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Genesis 1:3-5 
A DECREE of LET THERE BE LIGHT from the Seat of God in the MOST HOLY PLACE
 
And thou shalt put the mercy seat 
upon the ark of the testimony 
in the most holy place.
* And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments,
 which the LORD spake unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave them unto me. 
And I turned myself and came down from the mount,
 and put the tables in the ark which I had made; 
and there they be, as the LORD commanded me.
Exodus 26:34/Deuteronomy 10:4,5

 Plagues begin to Pour Out on those who have Disobeyed the Law of God in the Ark of the Testimony in the MOST HOLY PLACE
  And the first went
and poured out his vial upon the earth; 
and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men 
which had the mark of the beast
and upon them which worshiped his image.
Revelation 16:2 
 
And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws... Daniel 7:25 
Q: Whose Law?
A: Obviously God's Law
Q: What Law of God deals with Time?
A: The 4th Commandment--Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work:...But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work,.... Exodus 20:8-10
 
Behold, 
the LORD maketh the earth empty, 
and maketh it waste, 
and turneth it upside down....
The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; 
because
they have transgressed the laws
changed the ordinance
broken the everlasting covenant. Isaiah 24:1,5
Q: What Law has the earth come together to transgress?
A: Obviously God's Law
Q: What ordinance has been changed?
A: Obviously the 4th Commandment by secular Law Worldwide
Q: How have they Broken the Everlasting Covenant?
A: By disconnecting Justification (Grace/Forgiveness) from Sanctification (Holiness/Obedience). 
 
--They want the Grace but not the Holiness
--They want the Forgiveness but not the obedience.
 
DAILY REMINDER
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, 
and have not LOVE, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, 
and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, 
and have not LOVE, I am nothing. 
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not LOVE, it profiteth me nothing.
LOVE suffereth long, and is kind; 
LOVE envieth not; 
LOVE vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, 
is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; 
And now abideth faith, hope, LOVE, these three; 
but the greatest of these is LOVE.
 And from Jesus Christ, ....Unto him that loved us, 
and washed us from our sins in his own blood,...
1 Corinthians 13:1-5,13/Revelation 1:5 
 
"When God's presence was finally withdrawn from the Jewish
nation, priests and people knew it not. 
Though under the control of Satan they still regarded themselves as the chosen of God. 
 
The ministration in the temple continued; 
sacrifices were offered upon its polluted altars, 
and daily the divine blessing was invoked upon a people guilty of the blood of God's dear Son and seeking to slay His ministers and apostles. 
 
---So when the irrevocable decision of the sanctuary has been pronounced and the destiny of the world has been forever fixed, the inhabitants of the earth will know it not
The forms of religion will be continued by a people from whom the Spirit of God has been finally withdrawn; and the satanic zeal with which the prince of evil will inspire them for the accomplishment of his malignant designs, will bear the semblance of zeal for God.
As the Sabbath has become the special point of controversy throughout Christendom, and religious and secular authorities have combined to enforce the observance of the Sunday, the persistent refusal of a small minority to yield to the popular demand will make them objects of universal execration."
E.G.W.
Closing Thought for the Day
And I looked, and behold a white cloud
and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, 
having on his head a golden crown
and in his hand a sharp sickle
 
And another angel came out of the temple, 
crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, 
Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe
And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; 
and the earth was reaped.
 
And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, 
he also having a sharp sickle
And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe
And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
       The harvest is past
               the summer is ended
                      and we are not saved.
...the harvest is the end of the world; 
and the reapers are the angels.
Revelation 14:14-19/Jeremiah 8:20/Matthew 13:39
