The extra oil of the 5 wise virgins and the king who exalts himself


 The extra oil of the 5 wise virgins and the king who exalts himself

As for God’s words:
Roman 15:4 says that whatsoever things were written in the past, was written for us to learn, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope. And so it is written
in Ecclesiastes: All things are wearisome, more than one can say and that what has been done will be done again and there is nothing new under the sun.

 Because God had said that He is the same YESTERDAY...TODAY and FOREVER…
HE WILL NEVER CHANGE NEITHER HIS WORD SHALL PASS AWAY WITHOUT ACCOMPLISHING ALL THAT HE HAD SAID SO!!

 But God can/will change the methods and the occasions. Time and wisdom belongs to
our God. No one can match with Him. (Eccl.11:5)

 
                   Eccl.11:5 :-
                            As you do not know the path of the wind,
                            or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb,
                            So you cannot understand the work of God,
                            the Maker of all things.

 
God said He will never let the rebellious goes unpunished, nor can evil dwell
in His presence.

But those who hope in the LORD shall never be weary nor shaken, indeed they
will rejoice in seeing the victory over the wicked!

 
As I asked God to give me a deeper understanding about the extra oil of the virgins,
He brings these 2 verses to me and told me that the oil of the virgin is the oil of joy.
Isa. 35:10 and Neh. 8:10, which will carry us into fulfilling all the promises of our
God for us.

 
           Isaiah 35:10 :-
                    and the ransomed of the LORD will return. They will
                    enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their
                    heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow
                              and sighing will flee away. (NIV)

 
            Neh.8:10 :-
             Nehemiah said, “Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks,
             and send some to those who have nothing prepare. This day
             is sacred to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the LORD
             is your strength.”(NIV)

And before I post this declaration, God gave me another verse in Isa. 61:3 (KJV)

        (KJV) Isaiah 61:3:-
             To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them
              beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of
              praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called
              trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he
                         might be glorified.   

 
The Bible says that we are just pilgrims on earth and we are on our journey
to find our everlasting home.

 This oil can only be possessed by having the Truth in us. And this is all Truth,
without this Truth in us, we will lose hope. With this Truth, we shall have no
fear in whatever bad news the days bring, because we are in the Truth and we
shall always have hope.

 
       1 John 5:20:-
        We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us   
         understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we
         are in him who is true -  even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is
         the true God and eternal life. (also read John 1:14)

 
       John 15:11:-
           I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that 
                                                 your joy may be complete.

 
The Son of God Jesus Christ is all Truth (John 1:14)

                 
Warning

We can put the truth on our lips or have the truth in our mouth,
but we still don’t have the truth deep within us.

         Isaiah 29:13:- The Lord says;
                     “This people come near to me with their mouth
                      and honor me with their lips, but their hearts are
                      far from me. Their worship of me is made up only
                                of rules taught by men.” (NIV)

 
       Psalm 51:6:- Surely you desire truth in the inner parts;
                          you teach me wisdom in the inmost place.(NIV)

 
Are we living in the Truth or is the Truth just found on our lips??

 

 The Oil

The Oil is the Spirit of joy, an anointing from the LORD.
The Oil is representing the Holy Spirit, who will carry us through the journey by God’s strength. We will not be able to reach our destination by our own strength.  This strength/power comes from the joy of the Holy Spirit..

 
And we need strength to resist every temptation that comes
our ways and power to overcome all our weaknesses.

 
      Isaiah  40:29:-
              He gives strength to the weary and increases the
                                power of the weak.

 
On the journey, the Holy Spirit will always point us to Jesus, who is the Light (Truth).
Without Jesus, we will not be able to come back to the Father.
(read also John 16:12-15)

 
    John 14:6:-
     Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life.
      No one can come to the Father except through me.

 

 And why extra Oil??

The last days will be the darkest days (midnight) on earth and we don’t
know the hour our King will arrive.  We need to wait with extra oil and stronger
light to brighten up the path so that we will not go off-track  to the right or to the
left. We need extra strength which only the Holy Spirit can provide.
(Rom.5:20-21)

 
            Isaiah 40:31:-
                    but those who hope in the LORD will renew their
                    strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they
                    will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not
                    be faint.

 

Why shouldn’t we lent our oil to the foolish virgin?

 1) because the King is on the way! (our bridegroom)

 2)don’t exchange your joy for burden, lest you lose the strength to carry you
   on your journey to meet the king since it is a tough road (things happening  
   around you and the world now). The oil is the strength/wings to carry us through.
   And there is not enough time to buy/look for it now. (yet I still believe that God’s    
   grace is  sufficient at the moment)

3)we might probably be fooled by satan’s strategy by using the foolish virgins to
  stop/pull us from reaching our destination. Abide our compassion in the LORD(Rom. 9:14-15), because only the LORD sees what is in the heart.

 

The foolish virgins do not refer to those who are in need of encouragement or fellowship
with one another and live a Godly life. The foolish virgins refer to those who want to use
up your oil (strength) for them only, but are not willing to live a Godly life, and thus it will probably delay our journey.

To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven (Eccl.3:1).
And in this season, while we need this extra oil the most to bring us through, we need to
take note of what God has taught/shown us (Matt.25:9).

 
        Psalm 84:7:
                  They go from strength to strength,
                         till each appears before God in Zion.

 

Who is this man who exalts himself??!!

As I continued to ask God to show me more about this moment of time and the
suffering of many innocent people around the world now, He brings me to read
Daniel 11:36-12:1-13.

And doubtlessly, this king is already manifested, as well as this foreign god. Read
‘the book of Enoch’ and the book of ‘Fallen Watchers’. Their goal is to steal, kill
and destroy. The way of this wicked king comes from the foolishness of the wisdom
of men which will quickly come to an end.

 

 And soon..…the end will come!

God reigns forever!

Peace to you all who fear the LORD and do His will,

                           and to you…..fear not,

and you shall receive the crown of life/Salvation!

 

 

                   Eccesiastesl 11:7-10 :-

                  7Light is sweet,
                        and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.
                  8However many years a man may live,
                                          let him enjoy  them all.
                  But let him remember the days of darkness,
                                  for they will be many.
                  Everything to come is meaningless.
                  9Be happy, young man, while you are young,
                  and let your heart give you joy in the days of
                       your youth.
                  Follow the ways of your heart and whatever
                                                  your eyes see,
                  but know that for all these things God will bring
                                you to judgment.
                  10So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast
                            off the troubles of your body,
                               for youth and vigor are meaningless.

 

 
God is Love!!
