MESSAGES FOR CHRISTIAN PREPPERS
Now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2
Jesus is Coming Again!
All Premillennialists* know that we’re on the cusp of the Tribulation, that prophetic time that immediately precedes the 70 weeks of Daniel! How much time is left in your estimation? And we know that after the Tribulation comes the millennium … and then eternity. These fact are an inviolable absolute, an immutable certainty.
Considering how much society has deteriorated in the last 50 year, do we have 20, or maybe 50 years left before slipping into the 70 weeks of Daniel?
We must wake up and acknowledge that to be the truth. Men can deny, reject, or ignore that truth; but they cannot change it. And who would want to?
Whatever you do, don’t miss this point:
This being true, is it not obvious that there is not enough time left to save our beloved nation? Therefore there is no sensible options left other than to save what CAN be saved, and that is peoples souls and lives. To do that we will need to prepare physically, mentally, and especially spiritually.
I would rather be prepared a year too early than 10 minutes too late. How much time do we have left?
That was a short introduction. Now we need to know HOW to prepare … so please read on.
“The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is.” ~Winston Churchill
“…In the last days difficult times will come.” ~ 2 Timothy 3:1
“When the righteous triumph, there is great glory. But when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.” ~Proverbs 28:12
ARE THESE INDEED THE LAST DAYS?
- What are the specific events that will herald the approach of the Last Days? Does the Bible really spell them out?
- What is the spiritual significance of Israel? What role is she called upon to play in the Last Days?
- How can I know for sure that Israel – this Israel – is a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy – and is not simply a fluke of history?
- Does the Bible really tell us that the Jews will return to Israel in unbelief?
- How can I use prophecy to reach the unsaved and bring them to Christ?
- What does the Bible have to say about apostasy in the Last Days?
- Does the Bible call upon the church to engage in social, cultural, and political reformation?
- Do adherents of the Christian and Islamic faiths worship the same God – as we’re being told by so many of today’s evangelical leaders?
- Why are so many Christian pastors emphasizing what the Christian and Islamic faiths share in common when it’s what they don’t share in common that is of such eternal importance?
- Why are so many church leaders redefining sin and playing down its consequences; e.g., homosexuality?
- Why has the church lapsed into silence regarding these questions?
- Are you prepared physically, mentally and spiritually for the coming crash of our economy and nation … terrorists attacks … Ebola and other plagues … mega natural disasters … all these approaching Last days events?
AND YET THE CHURCH REMAINS SILENT! When was the last sermon you heard that addresses in depth the End Days? Who is pleading and preparing the church for such a time as this? Now is the time to prepare!

THESE PRECEDENTS NEED LITTLE INTRODUCTION
Noah was instructed by God to prepare a place (Ark) that was totally self sufficient so he and his family could survive the flood and carry the linage of Jesus untainted. They were under God’s covering because they were obedient to make the Ark and to go into it when God instructed them to. The Ark was God’s place of promise, provision and protection. ArkHaven was named after the Ark model, but incorporates the insight these three models give us.
Moses showed us that we must accept the possibility that we may eventually and ultimately be living by miracles alone as his people did in the wilderness. Keep in mind that as long as they followed the pillar of fire by night and the pillar of smoke by day they were protected because they were where God placed them. God provided physical protection, provision, and promise so long as they were under His covering by being obedient to follow the pillar of fire.
Joseph is another model for us. He had seven good years to prepare Egypt and his family for seven bad years. Whatever time we have left we need to be preparing for the eventuality of the coming bad years, however many years that may be. Goshen was a protected area that stayed green during those 7 bad years, and it was protected again during the time of Moses and the plagues. They were under God’s covering by being where God placed them. May God lead each of us into a Goshen land.
Elijah was instructed by the Lord to go to the brook Cherith, and there God sent ravens to feed him. Then the Lord told Elijah to go to Zarephath to be fed by a widow. God instructs some to prepare and others He instructs to go where God has arranged things so they will be provided for. He was under God’s covering by being where God placed him, and doing what he was instructed to do.
Lot was told by God’s angles to flee Sodom before God judged the city with fire and brimstone. The angels escorted him and his wife and daughters out of the city safely. But Lot’s wife just had to look back at their home and city she loved. (Genesis 19:26)
What matters is that we all see clearly what we need to do to prepare for these coming days of devastation! God did not take Noah and his family off the earth He kept them safe while the waters rushed all around them. They were in a boat that took the pounding of the waves and all the animals were protected so life could begin again without all the evil and the demonic angles who followed the devil. The devil and his angels are creating havoc again in this earth and soon the time of wrath will pour down and we need to be ready for it. Ready in what way? What can we do?
