STRANGE SOUNDS

Before we begin, I feel that it is only right that you have the opportunity (if you haven't already), to listen to some of the strange sounds that have been recorded all around the WORLD. I have included the most comprehensive collection of these sounds in one video on our website - but all you have to do is to go to  YOUTUBE.COM and type in "Strange Sounds 2012" and you will have more than enough to sample. 

The particular video I included in this report and on our website (about 14 minutes in length) takes you around the world to different locations, to allow you to hear the recordings of people with Camcorders who were taken unexpectedly by these "strange sounds".

If you are reading this on the Internet on our site at
www.inthegarden.us/prophecy/newsletter/strangesounds.htm you will be able to listen to those sounds by starting the video below.

As you can hear... these sounds, for the most part, especially in the first city tagged as "Chicago, Illinois", sound pretty much like a Shofar Blast - for those of you who have ever heard them. The thing of it is... The blast is so loud and so encompassing that it sounds as though it is coming from somewhere out in the atmosphere or even from the heavens. It sounds like something you might here in a shipping yard.

WHAT CAN IT BE?

There have been many claims as to what this sound could be - and in fact, the last person I had listen to the blasts and the video - believed it to be a man-made concoction. They felt that someone was perpetuating a hoax, and super-imposing this sound onto the video. I'm not easily taken in - but I don't agree with their analysis. I believe that there is more to it... "what" is the question.

Some have proclaimed it to be the Earth's Magnetic Pull; an extreme shifting of the Earth's Axis; a rocking of the inner core being so bound that it is ready to erupt. Nice scientific deduction - but if that's the case, all of the provisions you can get together to sustain you through a possible Earthquake of that magnitude - would be of no value for most all of the WORLD would be lost.

Still others are saying (as I originally thought and hold to as a variation of what I think it really is...) that it is a trumpet blast coming from the sky - signifying that Judgment day is at hand and that all of the Christians;  the Believers in Christ; the Church which is considered to be the Bride of Christ is about to be taken home. Nice thought and it is more exciting than anything I have ever heard. In fact, there are several verses in the WORD that speak of a TRUMPET BLAST just before the coming of our Lord in the Rapture.

Mat 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

1Co 15:52 In a moment, 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.

Rev 4:1 After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.

Yet through deep prayer and seeking God on the subject, I had a release in my spirit that it was indeed something else. Something that had to do with the Earth and the fullness thereof.

I began to see that this sound was much like a groaning, a travailing as the WORD says there in Romans 8: 18-23

Rom 8:18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
Rom 8:19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Rom 8:20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
Rom 8:21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
Rom 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
Rom 8:23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.

Now, I know that what I'm going to say next is new and maybe hard for some to grasp - even harder for some to take the time to read through, but it is necessary and I promise you a blessing on the other side of this journey together if you will take the time to read it or to listen to it via the internet. It could be one of the most awesome experiences you have ever had in the WORD I promise you.

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

So many are looking for easy answers and an easy way out and they don't try to understand the foundational purpose for many of the events that take place in their lives.

The WORD tells us that:

"The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand." Psalms 37:23,24 (KJV)

What about the WORDS of Jeremiah in Jeremiah 17 where he says:

"The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings." Jer 17:9,10 (KJV)

Listen, no matter how much you may want or even try to live "on  your own - without Christ..." you have distinctive DNA if you will - that belongs to the Creator God. Thus the Father says...

"Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die." Eze 18:4 (KJV)

THOSE VERSES ARE SO IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND FOR WHAT I AM ABOUT TO SAY.

Now, I want to return to those verses in Romans chapter 8 and let's look at some important truths about the creation.

Rom 8:19 For the "earnest expectation" of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

That WORD for "creature" here, refers to all of creation. Now hang in there with me because we can see that to be the case by the scriptures found in Genesis.

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." Gen 1:1,2 (KJV)

You get the sense here that the EARTH was "not created" here on this first day... but it was given LIFE. It was uninhabitable and "without form, and void"; filled with darkness.

Now watch what the next verse says here with regard to the Earth...

"...the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters."

The Earth was a waste and desert-like, empty and destitute of both men and beasts; of fishes and fowls, and also of trees, herbs, and plants. It was, an indigested mass of matter. NO LIFE! Yet "...the Spirit of God moved on the face of the waters."

The Targums (Aramaic interpretations of Jonathan and Jerusalem) call Him "the Spirit of mercies"; meaning "The Spirit of the Messiah". He who was concerned in the creation of all things (ref., John 1: 1-4). As He was in the designer of the heavens, hanging the sun and the moon, the stars in their place; bringing the confused matter of the earth and water into form and order; and there was "life given" for the replenishment of the Earth and was designed for one purpose in mind... so that the creation could communicate with the Creator.

The Book of Psalms reminds us that:

"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork."

Now, I'm not wanting to get too deeply into this - but enough to say that, something you haven't probably thought about before - is that the Earth is a LIVING THING. It is a Creation of the Lord... and as I pointed out earlier - when we look at the WORD "creature" in Romans 8:20 - it is not speaking of one particular creation - but ALL of creation being made subject to vanity. In fact the 22nd verse says that, "the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now". Verse 23 says,

"And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body."

Now, think of it... How would you feel - if you were there at Calvary and the Blood of Jesus fell on you? Would it not move you? Would it not stir you in such a fashion that your body would literally want to convulse with within you as you looked down at the blood of the lamb that taketh away the sins of the world having not only spilt His blood for you - but having spilt it directly on you. Would you not cry out in utter horror as you tried profusely to wipe it off - and yet the more you wiped the more it smeared and covered you - bringing to light every thought and every evil deed you have ever done?

We as Christians claim that blood to cover us when we want to be clean or when we want to be safe or when we choose to live for God... but what about when we stand in envy of our neighbor? What about when we are tempted to sin and our bodies tremble within us because we know that what we're about to do is so rank and vile and goes against every fiber of our being... why isn't His blood claimed then? Oh some may be successful inn doing so... but for most of humanity, we realize the proposed power of His blood but we are hard pressed (unable for whatever reason) to release the efficacy of it to DELIVER US FROM SIN!

 

But let me ask you again. As a creature... a creation of the Almighty God... if Jesus blood was spilt on you and literally touched your skin - how would you feel? What would be your reaction. Would you begin to quake and tremble with emotion at the very sight of the death of the Savior? The EARTH DID!!
The EARTH TREMBLED AND QUAKED AND THE FIRMAMENT TURNED DARK - THE BIRDS HUSHED THEIR SINGING BECAUSE THE VERY KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS - THE CREATOR GOD HAD BEEN SLAIN.

It makes it so much easier to understand when we now look at those WORDS in Romans 8 where it says,

"For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature (all of creation) itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body". Rom 8:19-23 (KJV)

It is very possible that what we are hearing (these "strange sounds" is the groaning and the travailing in pain by the Earth to finally be delivered. Think of it. The Earth has had to soak up the blood of hundreds of thousands of lives who have been lost through war; and violence of one man to another; by floods and MASSIVE STORMS; by the diseased-ridden population of those who live sinful promiscuous lifestyles... even the EARTH and all of the Firmament is crying out to be delivered. Makes you understand those verses that say,

"For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature (all of creation) itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God." Romans 8:20,21 (KJV)

BUT WAIT!

What about that Shofar we spoke of at the beginning of this lesson today. Have we forgotten the excitement of thinking that it could be the sounds of Angels preparing the heavens for Jesus' Return...

"And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other." Mat 24:31 (KJV)

COULD THAT BE IT OR COULD IT POSSIBLY BE SOMETHING ELSE? IS THERE SOMETHING ELSE WE MAY HAVE MISSED? SOMETHING THAT RELATES WITH THAT OF THE HEART OF GOD?

The Season of NEW BEGINNINGS!

Rosh Hashanah - The Jewish New Year is a time of introspection and searching the heart and repenting of their sins in the past year and seeking for Mercy rather than Judgment.

I'm not a Jewish scholar nor do I portend to be - but just a few things I gleaned from a study of the Shofar so melted my heart and brought me into deep repentance. Through the depth of my soul searching - seeing the degrading sinfulness of my pitiful existence of my heart and soul, I found that engraved to my spirit (grafted in at creation I believe) was the unique DNA of the Creator God. I was made by Him. I was from that time forward His Benefactor and all I was - even at the depth of my sin and despair - belonged to Him.

"I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them. How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!" Psalms 139:14-17 (KJV)

In regard to the blowing of the Shofar. Rosh hashana has long been known as the Feast of Trumpets. In fact, one of the mystical properties of the sounds of the Shofar, is the ability to cause HaShem (Adonai), to move from the seat of judgment to the seat of mercy by a series of LONG SUSTAINING TRUMPET BLASTS. Are you shouting yet?

What if all around the WORLD the Earth - having absorbed the shock of earthquakes; oil spills; nuclear melt-downs; nuclear blasts and testing under the sea; killings en mass by Governments and the hundreds of thousands via natural disaster; birds falling from the sky; tons of dead fish washing up on shore; what if the EARTH is Groaning and Travailing that preparing the WORLD for His Coming and calling all men everywhere to reflect upon their lives and to prepare for His SOON Coming - and yet pleading with HaShem (Adonai) to be moved from the Judgment seat, to the Mercy seat, "...waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of the Body." (ref., Romans 8:23)

ONE FINAL OBSERVATION

I find it interesting that all of these "strange sounds" have intensified since the skirmishes in around the Holy City have intensified. Could it be that the Earth and the Firmament thereof - so clogged by space junk and filled with the imposition of death and disregard for LIFE coupled with a complete disregard for God and His Creation by mankind, that this EARTH is Crying out not just for HaShem (Adonia) to be moved to the Mercy Seat rather than the Judgment seat - but that mankind everywhere who proclaim the Name of the Lord should begin in their own sphere of influence to PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD?

MERCY... MERCY!  GOD HAS ALWAYS PROVIDED A WAY FOR MERCY

As 'man' is a creature from the physical realm, he is only aroused and inspired to action by something stirring, something that will cause him to snap out of his everyday meager existence.

We see this concept in practice at a time of war. In fact - history tells us that in order to stir up the troops, trumpets were sounded with varying blasts, in hope that these trumpet calls would arouse and motivate the soldiers to action. The WORD proclaims:

"Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;" Joe 2:1 (KJV)

Perhaps you have not accepted Jesus as your Savior and you are not ready should Jesus come back yet today - but you want to be. Perhaps your one who even wonders how God could love you - or what He thinks about you.

The Bibles says:

“Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn thee. ” Jeremiah 31:3

Yes, my friend, God loves you, and He loves you with a love that have never know nor will ever know, because there is no human love that compares to that of the divine love of God. He loves you and He wants to forgive you. He wants to have fellowship with you. 1 John 4:16 tells us that

"God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him." 1 John 4:16 (KJV)

You see, it doesn’t make any difference how far you may have tried to run from God. He loves you. His eye is on you. He sees you. God loves you! The Bible says that God sent His Son from heaven to this earth for you. Jesus Christ came to this earth to take your sins upon a cross. God has a plan for your life. He says:

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord. “Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future.”  Jeremiah 29:11

God created all of us in His image, and you as a person are important to God.

So what do you need to do to be saved?

Jesus tells us, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 (KJV)

So many people go through life unfulfilled, searching... sort of like a blank canvas waiting for a picture of purpose to be painted on us. What does it all mean?

No matter who you are or how you’ve lived your life, God wants to receive you into His family. He wants to help you  change and feel complete - maybe for the first time in your life. You can trust Him as millions of others have done and experience His mercy in your life today. Are you ready?

Jesus said

“I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?"  Jeremiah 32:27 (KJV)

“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in.”  Revelation 3:20

Friend... God isn’t waiting to judge you. It's not His desire to condemn you in any way. What He wants is to receive you with mercy, with love, with open arms, and forgive all your sins. Will you come to Him? Will you turn from your sin and promise to live for Him? The WORD of God says:

“If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:9 (KJV)

Trusting in Jesus’ sacrifice for you is the only way to find forgiveness from God and to begin a relationship with Him. We urge you to take this step of faith today. To do that, simply talk to God – this is called praying – and tell Him you believe in His Son. Just say:

“Lord Jesus, I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life. I ask your forgiveness and now turn from everything which I know is wrong. Thank you for dying on the cross for me to set me free from my sins. Please come into my life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and be with me forever.

Thank you Lord Jesus, Amen.”

Welcome to the Family of God.

If you prayed this prayer would you sit down and write to us and let us know. We would like to send you some literature that will help you in your new found walk with Christ.
