I was just remembering brother Billy Graham today.  His life's calling, ministry and the myriad ways he had been used by God.  Even in his death, the timing of which I always believed was bathed in the prophetic.

Truly our generation has also been bathed by many prophetic markers.  Even on a slow news day they remain.  Their individual testimonies are unique, but collectively they together herald but one message.  The Lord is coming soon!

Although words like "soon" are extremely relative, we must remember as well that they are bathed and sealed by divine intent.

Again, let each of our spirits reflect the Lord's perspectives!  The Lord's will, and the Lord's timing!  He is the potter, we are but His clay!

I agree and I think people have become numb to it. The world is screaming END TIMES yet most everyone just goes about their business like it's just another day. They will be truly taken by surprise when Jesus intervenes in the affairs of man again and will have no one to blame but themselves.

The world certainly got darker after he died.  I felt a great sadness as well when prophecy teachers:  J.R. Church, Grant Jeffrey went home.   So glad that J.D., Amir, Jack Hibbs has taken the spot light to keep us inform.  Was bless today listening to Dr. Ed Hindson as he spoke at J.D.’s church on Sunday.  Fantastic encouraging message about our eternal future in heaven!

Indeed we can sleep at night knowing the Lord will always leave for Himself a witness!

J.D. And Jack Hibbs are two of my favorites! You can tell J.D. Farag is plenty ready to go home Smile We’ve lost some very strong saints in recent years, including Jack Kelley. I miss him very much. So much insight he shared through Grace Through Faith.

There are certainly a great cloud of witnesses that we are indebted to.   And it keeps on growing!

Ultimately, it is the Lord we must thank for the people He places into our lives in just the right season.  Many of which we can be thankful that we didn't have to live with them.  Much like grandchildren, we enjoy them for a spell and then walk away.

As stated, Billy Graham's wife never contemplated divorce, just murder!  Tee, hee, hee.

I remember a time on RITAN where we speculated the rapture happening before Billy G. died. I was sure disappointed when he got to go home first and that theory went down the drain  😉   (not meant to down play his going home 🙂 )

Yes! When Billy and Jack Kelley both went home I thought for sure we would be right on their heels. Bet they aren't thinking about us right now! 😉
