Valley Of Decision, Now!

“In The Eye of the Storm”

“Multitudes, multitudes
in the ‘Valley of Decision’…
for the day of the Lord is near
in the ‘Valley of Decision’.”
Joel 3:14
.
.
.
.
.
.
What if someone told you that a great image of the Valley of Decision, spoken of by Joel, the Prophet, was up in the night-sky?
.
Would that make you nervous? It probably would, wouldn’t it?
.
But the fact is, the Valley of Decision is much closer than that!
.
Oh yes, it is even much closer than that Valley of Megiddo, over in there in Palestine!

VALLEY COMES TO US IN OUR HEART!
.
You see, the Valley of Decision comes to us right in our very own heart and mind!
.
It is a valley in which each and every man, woman, and child must walk through in his or her lifetime!
.
And it can come at any time in one’s life. Perhaps even on the very day prior to a fatal accident!
.
For the unbeliever, it is “the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world.” John 1:9, which beckons him to “Go and sell that ye have, and come and follow Me.”
.
And for the one who has already begun to walk the Pilgrim’s Pathway, to follow Jesus, as a disciple, the Valley of Decision can still yet come to that person, asking the question…
…”Are you willing to forsake all, and follow Jesus even into that death-to-self?
Are you willing to trade that “self” for the incredible Agape love of Jesus?”
.

.
MANY TURNED BACK!
.
Yes, there were many disciples in the days of Jesus’ earthly sojourn, who finally could take no more of His self-sacrificing life.
.
And they simply “went back” from following Him and “walked no more with Him!” John 6:66
.
And so, the Valley of Decision comes to us, silently in the night, and asks the question, “Will ye also go away?” John 6:67
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Well, this article began by asking the question… “What if someone told you that a great image of the Valley of Decision, spoken of by Joel, the Prophet, was up in the night-sky? Would that make you nervous?”

VALLEY OF DECISION NOW APPEARING!
.
Well, the fact is, the Valley of Decision is up in the night-sky!
.
Yes, there is a constellation group which is called the Valley of Decision Constellation Group.
.
And it first appears in Summer and comes out each night, well into Fall.
.
And it really should make us nervous.
.
Because God is now revealing the Signs Of Heaven promised in Luke 21:25.
.
Listen…
“And there shall be signs in the
sun, and in the moon, and in the stars…
then look up, and lift up your heads;
for your redemption draweth nigh.”
Luke 21:25, 28 (Condensed)

EYE OF THE STORM 
.
In every strong hurricane there is an “eye”, in which winds are relatively light, and there are no clouds.
.
And this phenomenon can be easily translated into spiritual terms.

SATAN: A SIDE-WINDER!
.
But here’s the main point to this devotional.
.
Yes, we are now in a terrible political-moral-religious storm!
.
Nobody with any honest-hearted, common-sense savvy can deny that!
.
But what we need to understand is that Satan is like a wily serpent.
.
And as we know, serpents (snakes) make all sorts of twists and turns!
.
They do not travel in a straight direction.
.
And as this world-wide moment in history, called “The Valley of Decision” comes into its fullness, Satan just might back off for a time.
.
In other words, we might just enter the eye-of-the-storm, spiritually speaking.
.
That is, there could very well be a little season of peace and tranquility which comes over the world.

“BE NOT DECEIVED!”
.
Now, the Bible repeatedly warns Christians to “Be not deceived!”
.
And so, we must not be fooled by such a time of so-called “peace and safety”.
.
Listen to Scripture…
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety;
then sudden destruction cometh upon them,
as travail upon a woman with child;
and they shall not escape.”
1st Thessalonians 5:3
.
Now, the Christian who is still trying to decide whether or not to forsake this world and all its glittering allurements, will be assailed from every direction!
.
Family, friends, church-members, employers, and all the various voices in society (television, radio, Internet, etc.), might attempt to turn that Christian away from entering into the Ark of safety.
.
.
.
.
.
“PEACE, PEACE, WHEN THERE IS NO PEACE!”
Jeremiah 6:14
.
Yes, the Valley of Decision is about to sweep over the whole entire world to make a last call!
.
And yet, Satan knows that if things seem safe and peaceful, then many undecided individuals may tragically develop a false sense of security.
.
And thinking that all is “peace and safety”, they may make the fatal decision to not enter the Ark of Salvation.
.
Just like the antediluvian world back in Noah’s day, many today may just mock, laugh, and scorn at the idea that the world is about to end!
.
And let’s face it! There were 7 days of calm, just prior to that great destructive deluge!
.
.
.
.
.
DON’T BE FOOLED!
.
And so, if the world extends a few years longer than we have expected, we must remember that there is always a calm before the storm.
.
Let’s not foolishly misdiagnose the situation!

LOCATING THIS VALLEY OF DECISION CONSTELLATION GROUP…
.
.
Look eastward in the early summer through fall. Find the Cassiopeia Constellation.
.
Cassiopeia is the Mount of Blessing.
.
In the sketch, it is the farthest mountain to the left.
.
In the sky, it is the northern-most of these three mountains when facing eastward. It has a snowcapped top.
.
Then find the second snowcap to its right (south).
.
Then go a little further south to the third snow-cap which is the Destroying Mountain Constellation.
