TOTAL SALVATION IN THE TIME OF JACOB’S TROUBLE

OLUBI JOHNSON

Psalm 34:19-20 NIV
The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all; he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken.

The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has come into a season of trouble (spiritual tribulation) both within and without, in which God is bringing severe judgments upon the Church (Jer. 30:7-10).

This judgment is to act as a catalyst to galvanise the Church to use the Blood, the Word and the power of the Spirit to learn righteousness unto perfection. Therefore, by cleansing out the sin nature from the soul and body, the Church will perfect the love of God and overcome the spiritual tribulation.

Jacob’s trouble speaks of the sin nature and its effect in the flesh (will, mind, emotions and body – Jer. 30:7-10);
– Through the sin nature in the air (Rom. 8:10; Eph. 2:2-3).
– Through those that trouble Israel; bad leadership and followership in the Church, whose hearts have been exercised in covetous practices (2Pet. 2:14).

Saul is a type of bad leadership (1Sam. 14:29). Achan is a type of bad followership (Jos. 7:25). Both types of saints exist within the Church of Jesus Christ in this day and they are troubling the Church.

Satan operates through his power in the air (Eph. 2:2-3) and it impinges upon the soul, flesh and circumstances of men on the earth, bringing them into subjection (1Sam. 16:14).

This is therefore a time of Jacob’s trouble, but God wants to save Jacob (spirit, soul and body), from the sin nature that troubles him, in this time of favour (Jer. 30:7).

Only those that perfect the love of God will be preserved blameless, and therefore counted faithful and worthy to carry and manifest the Spirit without measure, as they change from Jacob to Israel (1Thess. 5:23).

God is going to remove bad leadership from His Church in this time of Jacob’s trouble (Job 34:20). Then shall grace and glory dwell in our land (our mind, will, emotions and body that are in spiritual cleansing perfection: Psa. 85:9).

Now, we accomplish this by learning of the Lord Jesus and copying His example, under the covering of spiritual fathers who have gone before (Matt. 11:28-30; 1Tim. 2:1-2).

We take the easy yoke of eternal life (Zoe) and the burden of travailing; praying with all kinds of prayer in the Spirit, using the Blood (Heb.13:20-21) the Word (1Jn. 2:5) and the Spirit (1Jn. 4:12-13) to drive out the Satanic nature from our souls, bodies and circumstances and perfect the love of God.

In this manner, we attain unto the total salvation of our spirits, souls and bodies, even in this time of Jacob’s trouble, or tribulation, in the Church of Jesus Christ.
