6th and 7th Seals

VIDEO: 6th and 7th Seals

Sixth Seal

And I beheld when He had opened the sixth seal, and, see, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of Heaven fell to the Earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. (Revelation 6:12-13 AKJV)

What could cause the sun to become black and the moon to be red? Sackcloth of goat’s hair was used in mourning and usually connected to a time when judgment had occurred. Since we can still see a red moon, this cannot be a sun that is entirely blocked. Perhaps it refers to an eclipse of the sun. Before we address the red moon, let’s talk about the stars.

The “stars of Heaven” which fell may cause this. To understand why, we need to look at more scriptures.

The Greek word aster is translated “stars.” It is the same word used earlier in the same manuscript where it is defined for us:

The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches… (Revelation 1:20 AKJV)

Stars of Heaven falling to Earth can now be clearly seen as angels being kicked out of Heaven. We know when this event will happen from prior studies. 

And there was war in Heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in Heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the Earth, and his angels were cast out with him… (Revelation 12:7-9 AKJV)

And when the dragon saw that he was cast to the Earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, (three and a half years) from the face of the serpent. (Revelation 12:13-14 AKJV)

Within these two verses, we can see that this seal will be broken at the midpoint in Daniel’s Week when Satan and his minions will be kicked out of Heaven. How does this affect the moon and what does that mean? To understand this, you will need to know about principalities.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6:12 AKJV)

Satan is not omnipresent. He has to organize his army to enforce his will and receive information. This shows the levels of the organization:

1. Principalities: rule over nations (Daniel 10:13)
2. Powers: rule over states or provinces
3. Rulers of the darkness: over cities, enforcing rules and regulations
4. Spiritual wickedness in high places: demons operating in the spirit realm

The bigger the country, the bigger the principality - literally. There was a testimony given in 2011 when the tsunami hit Japan that shows what happens when an evil principality is kicked out. 

The Korean churches had been praying for God’s salvation for Japan for many years. The year 2010 was the beginning of a project to plant 10 churches in 10 years. Because of this, God appointed a good principality for a time of mercy. 

A vision of two bright white angels wrestling a dark angel and casting it to the Earth was seen. This dark angel hit the ground where the epicenter of the earthquake was, which created the tsunami. 

From what I have learned about angels, it seems the more powerful ones are quite big. The greater the population, the bigger the principality. When Satan and his minions are cast to the Earth, this explains what happens as we continue reading:

And the Heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. (Revelation 6:14 AKJV)

If every mountain and island are moving, then this is a serious earthquake. Every evil host being removed over geographical locations explains why every mountain and every island is shaken. The Earth moving to this degree may very well set off many volcanoes in the Ring of Fire that contains approximately 850–1,000 volcanoes around a tectonic plate in the Pacific Ocean.

Scientists have recently discovered that ash and smoke from wildfires will cause the moon to look very red. The “moon became as blood” refers to much more than a local phenomenon such as a “blood moon” because this is seen worldwide. Blood moons are only visible to certain areas of the world. The ash and smoke from the volcanoes would account for a literal red moon. This worldwide event will affect all nations. The next verse shows the reactions of mankind:

And the kings of the Earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every slave, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of Him that sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of His wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? (Revelation 6:15-17 AKJV)

The Earth and the hearts of men will be shaken as the sixth seal is broken and they will run for safety instead of running to God. At this point, all Christians should know that Daniel’s Week has begun, the seals are broken, because the scripture states that “the day of His wrath has come.” 

The Two Witnesses die at this point: they had been prophesying and giving testimony against the world. This may be why the world realizes God’s wrath is on the way! 

You will want to consider the effects of this seal and begin to prepare. The first step is to ask the Lord about your country and how this seal will impact your nation. It will do no good to stockpile food and water if an earthquake destroys your home. If you are not able to hear clearly from the Lord yet, the classes in the Courts of Heaven Academy will help.  

I live in the USA and recently the Holy Spirit opened up my eyes in a time of prayer. A vision in the Heavens revealed that an evil principality has been appointed over America. This means when the sixth seal breaks, we are due to have a huge earthquake. Where will this hit? 

There will be two “American Eclipses” occurring seven years apart over North America. Seven is God’s number of perfection in the physical. These two events point out God’s perfect will for this nation. They conveniently create an X to mark the spot where the evil principality will land. 

The Madrid fault line runs under the Mississippi River on the border between Illinois and Saint Louis. When this fault is affected, we will have a new continental divide as the water from the largest river in this country is drained. This will affect food production as well as distribution because Saint Louis is known as the Ag (agricultural) Coast of America with the second largest inland port in the USA. 

The Lord may reveal a connection between the location of the 2011 tsunami and why the principality will land in Carbondale, Illinois. At this time there are still some missing pieces to that puzzle, although the answer could be as simple as the location being in the middle of America’s Bible Belt.

Other areas may be affected as “powers” are overthrown that rule over large population centers. These impacts won’t be as great, but may set off fault lines and volcanoes located nearby. Those located near a tectonic plate may have more effects from these impacts. A few major US cities to consider are:

• Los Angeles - the San Andreas Fault
• Portland - Several volcano possibilities  
• Seattle - Several volcano possibilities

New York may also be affected, but since it is not located next to a tectonic plate, the effect may not be as severe. You will need to look at your country and the fault lines close to major metropolitan areas, national capitals, or located on the coast. The real question is: 

Will this calamity be enough to convince the world to go to a paperless money system or join the World Economic Forum?

That is the end goal of the Satanic kingdom, to unite the world under one currency that is easily controllable so that the AntiChrist can take control of all buying and selling.

Seventh Seal

And when He had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in Heaven about the space of half an hour. And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets. (Revelation 8:1-2 AKJV)

The seventh seal releases the seven trumpets. Trumpets sound a warning or announce that something is coming. In this case, they are announcing that God’s wrath will be poured out! They are not God’s wrath, they are a warning that it is on the way. The “silence in Heaven about the space of half an hour” indicates it will be some time before those trumpets begin sounding. 

This heavenly half-hour of silence makes great sense when you put it into the full timeline we have discovered so far:

1st Seal: AntiChrist riding fourth in power
2nd Seal: War coming after the peace treaty is signed
3rd Seal: Famine
4th Seal: Death over one-quarter of the world
5th Seal: Blood of the martyred saints crying out, continuing for a short while
6th Seal: Satan and his army kicked out of Heaven: earthquakes and skies darkened
7th Seal: Silence in Heaven as trumpets are handed out

When the sixth seal is broken, people run and hide, knowing God’s wrath is coming. The AntiChrist blasphemes Heaven, God, and all who dwell there. When nothing more comes from Heaven for what could be three years, people come out of hiding and begin submitting to the AntiChrist.

And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints on the golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand. And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the Earth: and there were voices, and thunder, and lightning, and an earthquake. (Revelation 8:3-5)

An angel comes and places the prayers of the saints and incense before the Throne of God on a golden altar (Revelation 8:1). God receives the prayers of the saints who are crying out. The response is to bring “fire of the altar of God.” This Greek word pyr (poorr) is often related to the cleansing fire of purification.

• Voices is the Greek word “phone” besides meaning actual speech, it can mean a sound or tone
• Thunder is the Greek word “bronte” indicating it is like a roar
• Lightning is the Greek word “astrape” literally means the gleam of a lamp or actual lightning

The seventh trumpet is about God speaking from Heaven with power. Earthquakes continue and the next three-and-a-half years will be a time where Christians are tried in the fire of God. The Bride of Christ will become bright and pure. Thunder is explained elsewhere by John:

...Then a voice came from Heaven: “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” The crowd that stood there and heard it said that it had thundered. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.” (John 12: 28-29 ESV)

When God spoke loudly, some only heard thunder while others heard a voice. Lightning is God’s display of power. Just as it was in the days of Acts, Christians will be under great persecution. However, God will be moving strongly through those who are rightly aligned with Him and His ways! We will become a bright shining light in a dark time.

Since the seventh trumpet happens after the sixth, we can place the seventh trumpet after the middle of the Tribulation.

Roadmap to Heaven

Destroying Curses
in the Courts of Heaven

Many people think of boot camp as a place you train for combat. Any veteran will tell you that basic training is about three things:

• Knowing what weapons are available 

• Learning how to use those weapons 

• Receiving orders and following them 

Believer’s Boot Camp series is a collection of books which teach us how to hear more clearly from God with the goal to ready ourselves for a face-to-face meeting with our Lord, Jesus. The series reveals the “weapons and tools” God has given us and how to use them, so we can bring God’s kingdom to Earth. Each book in the series focuses on a single topic to clearly define one tool or weapon from our Heavenly Father. 

The series uses the Word of God to reveal all that He has given us through Jesus. The Bible is our instruction manual and the Holy Spirit is our guide to understanding it.

Why Doesn't God Speak to Me?

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 1

Eager hearts cry out, hoping for a single word to confirm that He hears us. Yet, many times the only sound is silence. Over the years I have heard several reasons why God speaks to some and not to others. One night, as I tossed and turned, I brought each of these reasons before the Lord, stating why each of them did not line up with who I thought He was. 

Words rose from my soul, pleading for Him to reveal why He has remained silent when a single word from Him would mean so much to so many. For the next few hours, God used things I learned about years ago and things I had just discovered to show why He talks to some and why He doesn’t, and in demonstrative ways. 

In His grace, He also showed me how people could hear more from Him. Basic instructions on how to hear more from God and how to be led by Him are included in this book. Thank you for taking time to consider the answers I received and share with you now.

Keys to Authority for Every Believer

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 2

There is untapped power that is easy for every Christian to access in the form of authority. The keys to this authority will unlock weapons we can use to free ourselves from the attacks of the enemy. We must be intimately aware of the bounds and limitations of our weapon if they are to be used effectively. 

Find out about your authority:

• Why you need it.
• Where it comes from.
• What you can do with it.
• How to get more.

Destroying Curses in the Courts of Heaven

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 3

Our rights to appear in the Courts of Heaven have been greatly undervalued. The missing key to our authority is here. Jesus has provided the access and the Bible shows us the court procedures. When we learn to operate in our rightful place as children of the Most High, the enemy will be defeated and we will see the victory we have prayed for.

The death of Jesus freed us from the curse of the law. However, we must declare this freedom just as we must make a declaration for our salvation.

• Can curses be passed to our children?
• What are signs of a curse?
• How do you get rid of one?

Every answer is backed by scripture. Come and find out how easy it is to be free!

Roadmap to Heaven

Believers’ Boot Camp, Volume 4

As I meditated and sought the Lord, a vision overcame me. A “Roadmap to Heaven” was deposited into my soul. We are entering a season of unparalleled access to Heaven. Jesus is calling all who are His to visit with Him in the Secret Place of the Most High.

• What is the Secret Place?

• How do we enter?

• What will we find there?

The Bible holds the answers, the mystery has been revealed. As you use the map given in this book to journey to the Secret Place, discover your destiny and find the gifts the Holy Spirit will bring along the way.
