And the fourth angel with the trumpet sounded

After the midnight cry 11

And the fourth angel with the trumpet soundedMeditate about these things.

Rev. 8:12, “And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.”

Just a 4 to 5 minute eclipse, confused the world and people cannot look straight into it. Then imagine what will happen on the earth when suddenly the fourth trumpet sounds and darkness begins to engulf the sun, moon and stars. Such darkness that the earth will be in darkness for 8 hours. These sources of light for all of earth, withdraw their shining for a third of the day and a third of the night. Who knows what will be behind that darkness. It will affect men , and creatures on earth, it will affect the creatures in the seas and waters. Plants and all remaining vegetation will be affected, oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange will be affected.

There will be difficulty and if any kind of night virgils: Every man will be for himself in hiding. All these because men rejected the Lord Jesus Christ, in the days of their visitation before the translation. This is the after effect of the door being shut in Matt. 25:10; after the Bridegroom came for those that were ready. The terror on earth at that time of darkness will be so disheartening that people left behind will envy the dead.

Rev. 8:13, “And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the inhabitants of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound.”

I say woe, woe, woe; and that does not sound like good news or any encouragement for the people on earth. They are facing the arm of the antichrist machinery or system, and there will be no place to hide. Woe in this case is surely a bad omen; the judgment of God will intensify, all the worldliness that attracted men on the earth have evaporated, and reality now confronts all that dwells on the earth. Only the 144 thousand having the seal of God are guaranteed safety. If you witness this situation it clearly means you were left behind on earth to face judgment. The bride of Jesus Christ does not come into judgment as seen happening in the trumpet and vial judgments.

The three woes are coming, and will be disastrous according to the word of God, as written for our admonitions in the book of Revelations. Each woe propels the earth and those that dwell in them toward the final or third woe of Armageddon. No man in their right senses would choose to march down for the war at Armageddon. A wicked and deceitful spirit will surely influence the hearts of those on the earth to head for Armageddon.
