1. EXODUS is a Greek word, meaning “GOING OUT” and mostly used to describe the “GOING OUT” of Israel from Egypt, “Now the sojourning of the CHILDREN OF ISRAEL, who dwelt in Egypt, was FOUR HUNDRED and THIRTY YEARS. And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and] thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the HOSTS of the LORD WENT OUT from the land of Egypt” [Exodus 12:40-41] Four hundred years did not become 430 years because God was unfaithful; God did not add 30 extra years to bring out His people. He is God Almighty and will neither change His word nor falter His deed; it was exactly 400 years by His reckoning of time and 430 years by the measure of Egypt’s calendar. God also appointed us 6 DAYS, amounting to 6,000 years on earth and the 7th DAY for their REST, in His Presence. In the “NIGHT” of the 6th DAY is our EXODUS IN THE AIR, when we shall be clothed with the glory of the SON of God [Hebrews 4:3] Natural calendars tell us 6,000 are over by 21 years, God’s clock is perfect; He alone knows the DAY and HOUR of our “GOING OUT” of this world, “WATCH therefore, for YE KNOW NEITHER the DAY nor the HOUR wherein the SON OF MAN COMETH” [Matthew 25:13]
2. EXODUS also mean SH’MOT, that is, NAMES in Hebrew, and in the case of Israel refer to the BOOK of NAMES of every SOUL that went down to Egypt [Exodus 1:1] How exciting, God also has the BOOK OF LIFE; a compendium of NAMES chosen from the foundation of the world to be CONFORMED to the IMAGE of Christ, “For whom he did FOREKNOW, he also did PREDESTINATE to be CONFORMED to the IMAGE of his SON, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren” [Romans 8:29] The PASSOVER LAMB slaughtered in Egypt represented the SON, as many as ATE the FLESH and splashed the BLOOD on their door posts were CONFORMED to the IMAGE of the SON [Exodus 12:1-13] We are the “OTHER SHEEP” whose progenitors did not EAT the LAMB in Egypt, but CONFORMED to the SON, when we ATE His FLESH and “DRANK” His BLOOD, as it is written: “… Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye EAT the FLESH of the SON of man, and DRINK HIS BLOOD, ye have no LIFE IN YOU” [John 6:53] His FLESH of Christ is the GOSPEL preached in the NAME of Jesus Christ and His BLOOD, GRACE to take our place in the “.. GENERAL ASSEMBLY and CHURCH OF THE FIRSTBORN, which are WRITTEN IN HEAVEN, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect“ [Hebrews 12:23] We are the “OTHER SHEEP”, who HEARD His VOICE in due season and shall be TRANSLATED as ONE FOLD, as it is written: “And OTHER SHEEP I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall HEAR MY VOICE; and there shall be ONE FOLD, and ONE SHEPHERD” [John 10:16]
3. The “GOING OUT” of Israel was at NIGHT, and God called them out by a Prophet, “And BY A PROPHET the LORD BROUGHT ISRAEL OUT OF EGYPT, and by a prophet was he preserved” [Hosea 12:13] The people required a Prophet because they knew not the WAY and it was NIGHT. NIGHT is the SEASON of grand DECEPTION fueled by CONFUSION, such as we find ourselves today. HEAVENS” are shaken, earth’s axis is out of place and all permutations of nature are out of order, as it is written: Therefore I will SHAKE the HEAVENS, and the EARTH SHALL REMOVE OUT OF HER PLACE, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger” [Isaiah 13:13] Hordes of malevolent entities displaced from “HEAVENS” lay siege to our world, nations are clueless to stem the tide of social disorder, economic instability, terror, famine, pestilence and imminent anarchy. DECEPTION looms large over a traumatized world and not a few have fallen back who were once in the Lord. No man knows the route of EXODUS IN THE AIR, because “… NO MAN HATH ASCENDED UP TO HEAVEN, but he that came down from heaven, even the SON OF MAN WHICH IS IN HEAVEN” [John 3:13] The Lord Himself shall appear to take us home and has sent His Prophets to make us ready. His Prophets are WATCHMEN of the age, warning all men to prepare for His imminent appearance, but some would not yield, “And for this cause God shall send them STRONG DELUSION, that they should BELIEVE A LIE: That they ALL MIGHT BE DAMNED who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness” [2 Thessalonians 2:10-12]
4. EXODUS IN THE AIR is the fulfilment of promise Jesus made to His disciples, saying: “LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED: ye believe in God, believe also in me. … . I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I WILL COME AGAIN, and RECEIVE YOU unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also” [John 14:1-3] He foretold a time of TROUBLE, such as Israel endured in Egypt but worse. It is increasingly difficult to abide in the FAITH, as the WICKED ride roughshod on the earth, “And ye shall be HATED of all men for MY NAME’S SAKE: but he that shall ENDURE unto the END, the same SHALL BE SAVED” [Matthew 13:13] Brethren, “END” is in sight, when every man conformed to Christ shall be TRANSLATED to be with Him forever, “… in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the DEAD SHALL BE RAISED incorruptible, and WE SHALL BE CHANGED” [1 Corinthians 15:52] Friend, are you CONFORMED to Christ? Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and inscribe your NAME in His BOOK OF NAMES, amen
