PROPHECY IN GENESIS - in the beginning

“…Make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world has been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ.
From Ephesians 3:9

WELCOME TO PROPHECY IN GENESIS!

“Remember the former things of old, for I am God, and there is none else. I am God, and there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.” Isaiah 46:9-10

Did God really tell us about the future from the beginning in the first chapter of Genesis?
Creation = 6 days of work + 1 day of rest.
1 Day = 1,000 years (2 Peter 3:8: “… a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day.”)

According to Biblical history, we’re entering the 7,000^th year (the 7^th day), the final 1,000 years of Rest on earth prior to Eternity. God is currently in the process of judging the heart of every person on earth individually. He has a plan to remove people who know and trust him and will take them to a safe place while he removes evil from it.

In the first chapter of Genesis we’re told God created heaven and the earth in 6 days and he rested the 7^th day. Peter presented a prophecy in 2 Peter 3:8 revealing the timing of those days:“… a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day.” For details see Day 1 through Day 7,

There is an eternal, self-existing God, a Father who created a man and woman to love, hoping they would love and appreciate him in return. He spoiled them with every perfect comfort. But instead of loving him, they rebelled: they wanted to be in charge.

Day after day throughout his 7-day plan, God taught them right from wrong, and how to seek forgiveness when they chose the wrong path. Some listened, some learned, but most just did whatever they thought they should be able to do. Many became selfish and mean.

Evil has increased to unimaginable depths and heights. Now at the end of the 6^th day, God is very angry. Those who know God’s story know how many times God himself killed evildoers to protect his people. Today is no different. God has prepared a safe shelter for his children while he alone destroys those with evil hearts, refusing to honor him, refusing his offer of salvation, Jesus, the Messiah.

A huge battle is coming, the worst ever. Appalling and horrible things have happened, and he is the only one who can settle it all. And he will.

You will find in Day 4 that God warned Samuel about having a king like all the other nations, but the people insisted. God said, “They have not rejected you, they have rejected me.” 1 Samuel 8:7. In Day 7, God will finally be our King. ”And the Lord shall be King over all the earth; in that day there shall be one Lord, and his name one.” Zechariah 14:9.

Day 7. We have arrived. God is in the process of transforming the world, as we now know it, into a spiritually peaceful kingdom here on the earth. He will finally be our King! After a horrific tribulation period, there will be showers of blessing. At that time, they will call Jerusalem the throne of the Lord, and all the nations will be gathered to it. They shall not walk any more after the imagination of their evil hearts.The orchards and fields of his people will yield bumper crops, and everyone will live in safety. His people will never again suffer from famines or the insults of foreign nations. In this way, they will know that the Lord their God is with them. In those days people will live in the houses they build and eat the fruit of their own vineyards. Unlike the past, invaders will not take their houses and confiscate their vineyards. God’s people will live as long as trees, and his chosen ones will have time to enjoy their hard-won gains. They will not work in vain, and their children will not be doomed to misfortune. Amen.

God used simplicity to explain his prophecy. Nothing is complicated. Just pay attention and he will unveil the future.

Are you ready?
