Hello Everyone!
It has been one long minute since my last post!
I hope this fall and winter season has been filled with the goodness, grace and mercy of God Almighty!
The Lord has had me in a season of inner healing and surrender.
Just, today I feel He is shifting my focus to the big picture again. I will share and explain more as I am led.
May you be found in perfect peace as your eyes are fixed on Him in 2018!!
Blessings and Love,
Linda

Pre-Trib? Post-Trib? What Trib?
If you are a believer, you may have heard of something called "tribulation","the tribulation" or "the great tribulation".
And if you are a believer who is actively awaiting The Lord's return- you've heard it all when it comes to the connection between 'the rapture' and 'the tribulation'.
The question is: What are we supposed to believe?!
In this post, I am instructed to clear up this confusion by giving a basic biblical timeline as well as how you personally will be affected when these events do take place.
Let's first establish that The Word of God (The Bible) is absolute Truth. Secondly, as a born again believer in The Lord Jesus Christ, the indwelling Holy Spirit will lead us into all truth (John 16:13). Having this certainty gives us a solid foundation to test any words or spirits (1 John 4) claiming to come from God. God will never contradict His word. And God speaks to all His children as He wills, through His spirit- giving instructions, commands, words, messages and using any means He chooses. He is God Almighty! His ways and thoughts are above ours.
Before we can understand these biblical timelines, we must define two seemingly synonymous words: "rapture" (or the catching away) and "tribulation".
Then we can get into the details of these events and their timelines.
I will begin by prefacing that the catching away (or rapture) is biblical (1 Thessalonians 4), therefore true and will occur. And secondly, no one knows exactly when it will occur (Matthew 24:36-51; Mark 13:32-36). I do not believe in date setting as only The Father knows when His Son will come for His bride.
If you are conflicted about this, seek The Lord in prayer and ask The Holy Spirit to give you wisdom and understanding and reveal what He would have you to see at this time.
I will be sharing many references of scripture as I share what The Lord has asked me to.
Rapture: to transport from earth to heaven at the Second Coming of Christ
Tribulation: distress or suffering resulting from oppression or persecution
The rapture or the gathering away is spoken of in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18. Verse 17 lets us know this:
"Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet The Lord in the air, and so we will always be with The Lord."
The context of this passage speaks of those who have already "fallen asleep" or died in Christ, compared to those who are still alive at His return.
Note, this does not speak of those being "left behind" or the tribulation.
Chapter 5, however, does speak about The Day Of The Lord- which is a series of events leading up to Christ's return, including "The Rapture", "The Tribulation Period" and "The Great Tribulation".
The Lord has revealed to me that there is a distinction between the Tribulation period and The Great Tribulation. To be more specific, The Great Tribulation is the time of God's wrath, when The Holy Spirit will no longer be restraining the reign of evil (through the spirit-filled bride of Christ, also known as the true church) on the earth (1 Thessalonians 2).
It is very hard to imagine that people will be on the earth, without the light of the church to guide them back to the truth. But this will happen.
Additionally, there is a period in The Tribualtion where some future Christians will be here.
While this is very daunting to think about, it is (in my opinion) a great honor to be one of the last voices of hope to the lost. These Christians are known as the Martyr Saints (as spoken of in Revelation 7). The Christians are commonly called those who "were left behind".
I feel this is a good moment to also draw the parallel between "The Rapture Saints" or "The Bride" and "The Tribulation/Martyr Saints".
It is PARAMOUNT that we understand that we only know in part while we are on this earth. We only know what The Lord through The Holy Spirit wills to show us, as He wills to show us. And as we yield to Him He will show us.
Some of you already know the hour we are in, for The Lord Himself has woken you up. Some of you are not completely awake, for The Lord Himself has not woken you up. And others are somewhere in between. I bring this up because we must be reminded that whatever we know, wherever we are, it is only by God's grace and His perfect will.
Brothers and Sisters, take heart:
If you are part of The Rapture Saints, The Lord is preparing you.
If you are part of The Martyr Saints, The Lord is preparing you.
With this distinction clarified, I think this will help us to better grasp, the core of the topic: Pre-Trib, Post-Trib, What-Trib?!
I was always taught that before all the bad, scary stuff that happens at the end of time, Jesus will take all the Christians out of the earth.
But in the fall of 2013, when The Lord woke me up to the time we are in, I began to read His word in relation to the last days and discovered more than I ever imagined I would. And I am so thankful, because I have been given a unique opportunity to not only share it with you but encourage you to read His word and seek Him for yourself!
Let's take a look at the Olivet Discourse found in Matthew 24 (and really 25, cause it's super important!), Mark 13, and Luke 21. Read these now if you haven't already.
Here we see The Lord Jesus, giving us great detail (in response to the disciples asking when and what ) about the signs of His Coming.
After reading, do you notice that most of what Jesus foretold has been happening for some time now?
What is left? The Abomination of Desolation (Matthew 24:15-28; Mark 13:14-22; Luke 21:20-24 and Daniel 9:27 (but read the whole book, there's a lot regarding this and the time of the end); Revelation 13 (but read the entire book!!! Always read in context!!!)
You may be seeing that this Abomination of Desolation is synonymous with the Antichrist and his soon coming reign on earth. I will get into that later.
Going back to the tribulation periods and how you will personally be affected when they occur.
I believe depending on who we are and where we live, many of us would say that (based on the definition) we have been going through tribulation for some time. We have heard of many being persecuted and even dying for their faith. And I think that most of us, even non-believers can see and sense that things are not going well in the earth and in our country.
So in one respect you can say that there is no such thing as a pre-tribulation rapture. Not when we look at it through this lens.
On the other hand, some would argue that The Bride will not escape 'The Tribulation' period and will be here on the earth during God's wrath. This too is partially inaccurate (1 Thes 5:9).
There are even some who believe we are already in the millennial reign of Christ. But no, we are not.
We see clearly in many scriptures, namely Matthew 25 that those who are waiting for The Lord's Return and who have kept their lamps full of oil were the ones who were ready to meet The Bridegroom. In other words, some of us are more prepared than others for The Second Coming and all of the events that lead up to it.
So let's take a look at a biblical timeline on when these events will occur and where we are in that timeline.
Read 2 Thessalonians.
Although, the Bible is full and rich of details of the second coming of Christ, 2 Thessalonians gives us a concise timeline that once you have prayed for revelation, read, and meditated on, I believe is easy to understand.
2 Thessalonians speaks of The Man of Lawlessness. This 'Man' is the coming Antichrist, who will deceive the entire world into "believing" he is "God".
While I will not go into detail yet about the Antichrist, it is important to understand and put into perspective just why we have and will go through tribulation and for many, The Great Tribulation.
Let's look at 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4:
"Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God."
This is a good time to mention this: The Lord has been showing me that for some time we have been going into the time of The Great Apostasy (or Deception). In fact, I have been writing about it for about a year and a half. And I will post accordingly.
Notice that Paul warns us (as he has many times before), that we let "no one deceive (us) in any way". This confirms to me that, as many of us already know or have even experienced, that deception will run rampant- even amongst the children of God, and perhaps especially.
The Great Deception is here.
Let's continue...
That Day is referring to The Day Of The Lord, His Second Coming. We see firstly, that there will be deception (in this context he is referring to being told in essence- Jesus already came and they missed it), and then, "the rebellion".
2 Timothy and 2 Peter 3 speak of this.
It's here. It's now. It's time.
Then, "the man of lawlessness is revealed." This man will proclaim himself to be God.
It may seem surreal to know that we are living in the last days and the days coming will see the reign of the Antichrist. But, I believe this to be true.
Are we ready?!
So, is it pre-tribulation, post-tribulation and do we really understand what tribulation is?
And if you are a believer who is actively awaiting The Lord's return- you've heard it all when it comes to the connection between 'the rapture' and 'the tribulation'.
The question is: What are we supposed to believe?!

It may seem surreal to know that we are living in the last days and the days coming will see the reign of the Antichrist. But, I believe this to be true.
Are we ready?!
So, is it pre-tribulation, post-tribulation and do we really understand what tribulation is?
We have already established that many have endured a type of tribulation. If you know you're history than you know that persecution of Christians, and people dying for their faith, has been happening longer than any of us have been around!!!
The Lord Jesus told us in His word that we WILL be persecuted for our faith (John 15:20).
So, tribulation(s) have been happening already, for quite some time.
But there is The Tribulation period which includes The Great Tribulation and this is the ultimate tribulation that will come upon the entire world, for those who profess Christianity, more specifically those who are calling Jesus Christ their Lord.
The reason is this: The Antichrist will be ruling and reigning on the earth and those who are left behind (The Martyr Saints) will have to literally give their life for their faith, refusing the "mark of the beast" (Revelation 13).
It bears repeating:
Brothers and Sisters, take heart:
If you are part of The Rapture Saints, The Lord is preparing you.
If you are part of The Martyr Saints, The Lord is preparing you.
Whoever you are, wherever you are...if you are in Christ Jesus of Nazareth, The Lord of lords and The King of kings, The Only Begotten Son of God....you are in the palm of His hand and His plan for you is perfect. DO NOT FEAR.
In Summary, there is a difference between tribulation, the rapture (or gathering away), The Tribulation period and The Great Tribulation. These events will occur sequentially within the Second Coming of Christ, also called The Day Of The Lord. The church is The Bride (Rapture Saints) and The Tribulation Saints (The Martyrs). Each are being prepared now for their time, all for His purposes and for His glory. Some of us know what we are called to be, others do not. He will reveal all truth to you through The Holy Spirit as you yield to Him. Ask, Knock and Seek (Matthew 7:7-8).
Where are we now?
We are in the time of sorrows...the tribulation before The Tribulation. In fact, I believe, from what The Lord has been showing me, we are on the brink of The Tribulation period. This is evident in the fact the indicator found in Daniel 9:27 has not yet occurred. However, all things point to it being imminent.
What should we do?
Pray. Surrender your hearts to The Lord. Trust God. Seek Him first in ALL things. Share your faith with the lost. Repeat until He returns.
Remember, The Lord is preparing us all for His return. We will all stand before The Son of Man. May we be found worthy to escape these things. And may we all be strengthened to live for Him until He calls us home.
I will be sharing more on The Great Tribulation period as The Lord wills.

This is very IMPORTANT
I am reposting this from my other blog as I feel prompted to share it. I think this may be closer than any of us can imagine. Please take this to The Lord in prayer as seek His direction.
Below is the post (originally posted in November 2015 under "Revelations" tab):
The Lord dropped these words in my spirit last November. This will be the third time I am instructed to remind and warn:
""Earthquake amid a winter storm. It will wake everyone out of their sleep. Everyone will feel it."

Read, Meditate and Memorize Luke 21:36...NOW!!!
When The Lord woke me to the hour we are living in, I was given 2 specific instructions regarding the signs to watch for.
Today, one of those has been made absolutely, beyond the shadow of a doubt loud and clear, in terms of the nearness of things to occur.
I was taken to 1 Thessalonians 5, and The Lord highlighted specifically verse 3:
"While people are saying, "There is peace and security", then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape."
This verse has been on my radar for a while, but today...what a difference a day can make.
Please, please, please heed this warning. If you are in Christ Jesus, you know it, you see...humble yourself and pray that you may be found worthy to escape the things coming. We are ambassadors for Christ- this is not our permanent home. Don't falsely believe that life is just as 'normal' as it ever was.
We ARE at the close of the church age (Matthew 24). We ARE in the hour of wars and persecutions (Luke 21). The Antichrist is about to appear (Mark 13).
Let me share a sobering thought...When Jesus spoke of these things, they all point to the focus back to Israel.
Have you ever wondered why? The reason is that there is a time for us (The Gentile believers) and there is a time for them (The Jewish believers).
Let's here it in Paul's words:
"Lest you be wise in your own sight, I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers:a partial hardening has come upon Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in." -Romans 11:25
Our privileged, comfortable, blessed beyond measure time of being the church that the world looks at to define Christianity is coming to a close. The Rapture of the church is closer than we think. The Great Tribulation is moments away. The Day of The Lord is at hand!

Our privileged, comfortable, blessed beyond measure time of being the church that the world looks at to define Christianity is coming to a close. The Rapture of the church is closer than we think. The Great Tribulation is moments away. The Day of The Lord is at hand!
Do we understand this?!
No one knows the day or the hour of His return. It could be tomorrow. It could be in a decade. We are not called to set dates about when Jesus is coming back or judge who will be left behind.
We are called to preach the gospel. We are called to fulfill the calling He puts on our life. We are called to live a sanctified and holy life before Him. And we are called to look for His coming. We are called to "Be always on the watch" (Luke 21:26). Other translations say " Stay awake at all times", "Keep alert", "So keep watch at all times".
What are we watching for? His coming, His return!!!
Unfortunately, the majority of the church has ignored or forgotten this part of sharing about Jesus- Our Blessed Hope!!!
We have been robbed of that part of the gospel. And now the church is ill-prepared for the times we are now in.
But while there is still light, there is hope. Don't wait anymore. Wake up! Look up! Our redemption is drawing near!
Read it for yourself: Matthew 24 (and 25); Mark 13; Luke 21.
Ask The Lord through The Holy Spirit to lead you into His truth. Pray for discernment. Seek His will for your life. We all have a calling and purpose.
There is much beauty that awaits us brothers and sisters. But there is also much work that must be done to bring in the final harvest. The Lord will tell you what He requires of you.
I know part of my calling is to warn the church of the coming tribulation. And for those who heed to share in the duties He has for us at whatever time He has.
I continue to write...about many of these things. I will post as The Lord leads and allows.
Let us all be found worthy to escape and stand before The Son of Man, by His grace and mercy.
But, if you find that you couldn't- while you have breath, cry out to The One, Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Messiah, King of kings and Lord of lords and He will save you.

Suddenly Last Summer
I feel pressed in my spirit to repost a song message I received in 2015 that came within a dream.
I don't usually share dreams as I have not felt led to share them but this was significant and I think we should take heed. After seeing a recent news article, I believe The Lord is reminding once again.
You can find the original post in the Song Messages tab. The song is called "Suddenly Last Summer" by The Motels.
Please take this in prayer and ask The Lord to lead you into all truth through The Holy Spirit.
If you do not know Christ as The Lord and Savior of your life- please take this opportunity to turn to Him now. He loves you and wishes none to perish.
I will post below:
"Suddenly Last Summer" by The Motels
"I am still crying about this.
I haven't actually shared much about my dreams because I haven't been led to until now...
Last night I had another intense dream relating to what is coming/natural disasters. I dreamed that
we (family/friends) were sitting in an old van on a cliff overlooking the ocean as we listened to this
man telling us about the seas rising. This song's chorus kept playing over and over as we seemingly kept looking out to the ocean in shock and disbelief that it was going to happen.
I have had many similar dreams but never have I felt such a sorrow in my spirit.
There is already a somber tone to the song (as it is likely about a broken relationship) and I remember hearing it on the radio as a child, feeling it's sadness. Undoubtedly that plays a big part as many times songs trigger memories and spur emotions. But I believe God used this the other way around by taking the song (already tugs on my heart strings) and placed in a dream confirming what He has already said, not only to me but many others. Also, not that I needed anymore confirmations, but when I saw the video (which I'd never seen), a good part of it takes place at the beach.
"One Summer never ends,
One Summer never begins.
It keeps me standing still.
It takes all my will,
And then Suddenly Last Summer..."
*note official video has suggestive themes. I will post lyric video instead.

I don't usually share dreams as I have not felt led to share them but this was significant and I think we should take heed. After seeing a recent news article, I believe The Lord is reminding once again.
You can find the original post in the Song Messages tab. The song is called "Suddenly Last Summer" by The Motels.
Please take this in prayer and ask The Lord to lead you into all truth through The Holy Spirit.
If you do not know Christ as The Lord and Savior of your life- please take this opportunity to turn to Him now. He loves you and wishes none to perish.
I will post below:
"Suddenly Last Summer" by The Motels
"I am still crying about this.
I haven't actually shared much about my dreams because I haven't been led to until now...
Last night I had another intense dream relating to what is coming/natural disasters. I dreamed that
we (family/friends) were sitting in an old van on a cliff overlooking the ocean as we listened to this
man telling us about the seas rising. This song's chorus kept playing over and over as we seemingly kept looking out to the ocean in shock and disbelief that it was going to happen.
I have had many similar dreams but never have I felt such a sorrow in my spirit.
There is already a somber tone to the song (as it is likely about a broken relationship) and I remember hearing it on the radio as a child, feeling it's sadness. Undoubtedly that plays a big part as many times songs trigger memories and spur emotions. But I believe God used this the other way around by taking the song (already tugs on my heart strings) and placed in a dream confirming what He has already said, not only to me but many others. Also, not that I needed anymore confirmations, but when I saw the video (which I'd never seen), a good part of it takes place at the beach.
"One Summer never ends,
One Summer never begins.
It keeps me standing still.
It takes all my will,
And then Suddenly Last Summer..."
*note official video has suggestive themes. I will post lyric video instead.

Update and New Blog!!
Happy Spring Everyone!
It has been some time since I posted, but much has been going on! I pray you are all well in Christ Jesus!
The Lord spoke to me some time back about getting back to the root of She's Restored and recently my husband echoed this by telling me that my blog has become 'an end times' ministry. And truthfully, in my eagerness to be obedient in my calling as a watchman- it has! So, after some time asking, seeking and knocking in prayer, The Lord has given me clarity.
I felt led to start a second blog, The Ready Bride. This blog is tailored specifically for edifying the bride of Christ.
She's Restored will remain as originally created- to edify, encourage and equip sisters in Christ. I hope you will be blessed by both!!
The link will be on both blogs for easy access, for those who would like to read both!
I will hopefully be posting more regularly as led by The Holy Spirit. In the meantime, it's re-organization and putting things in their proper place. Seems to be a theme for me lately!
Feel free to let me know how you are doing! Leave me your comments and prayer requests!
