    RAPTURE NOW 🚀 IN 4 VISIONS 👓 GOD SPEAKS ✋ "Will Israel Have A Soon WMD Attack?" 📞 In this video, multiple times over two nights in a row, God did not permit me to sleep much. He kept waking me up and handing over a quill and blank scroll, telling me to take a dictation, a message he wants to send to Israel. Initially, as you see in the video, there were obstacles to getting the job done. By the end of the two nights, well, all is well that ends well. Our God is Grrreat! In these visions, God's message for Israel confirms the Rapture is now. Hang on tight, fasten your spiritual seat belts in prayer. Let go and let God! Imminently, right now, the believ'n are leav'n.
