Praise the Lord for such an awesome Revelation February 24, 2010

I was certain the rapture would happen in 2009 but it did not and I was very, very disappointed. During the first week of 2010 the Lord explained to me that the rapture was supposed to have happened in 2009 but He had delayed it for only a twinkling of an eye. Since the beginning of 2010 the Lord has talked about the rapture with urgency now more than ever before. The way He talks about the Rapture, it sounds like it could happen any second.
On February 24, 2010 I asked the Lord if the Rapture would happen anytime soon and if so, would He please show me a vision of the Rapture right now. The moment I said that, I heard a great groaning come from my innermost stomach with a very loud noise that the whole house could hear. I think it lasted for at least 10 minutes then I started speaking in a new tongue, not the one I usually speak, and it was very loud. This eventually changed to the Heavenly (Holy) songs with the same new tongues I was speaking. I was singing the new Holy song and it was so beautiful and louder than any other Holy songs I have ever sung before. During this encounter words cannot express how much peace and joy I felt. It was like my body would fly away with joy and then I started seeing the Rapture vision so very clearly. I saw a cemetery and so many new bodies were coming out of the graves and they were flying upwards. As I was looking at them flying into the air I saw the air was filled with so many people and I begun to see people I personally knew that the Lord has been telling me for some time that they would be Raptured. Among these people were my family and my new body was also flying in the air too. The next thing I saw on top of the clouds were so many people and the Lord was standing on the clouds in the center of all these people as they gathered around Him. At the end of the vision I was crying with tears of joy.
God has shown me many visions of the Rapture including the ones He showed me for the book; however, this one was very different than any other before. For the past couple of years God has shown me several visions of the Rapture but He has never told me to post it on my website before. This time He told me to put it on my website and also the Korean CafĂ© so people can read it and prepare and stay ready for the Rapture. I really feel we will be going home much sooner than we think; Praise the Lord. I want all the readers of the book to know that ever since the revelations of Heaven 14 years ago the Lord still visits me after each of my prayers, which is four times a day. I never miss that for anything or anyone. After each of my prayers the Lord’s presence shows up and talks about many things especially Heaven and what it will be like when we get there. He is so faithful. Whoever wants to be Raptured and enter His Kingdom has to love the Lord above all and He has to be the center of every area of their lives no matter what the situation is. We have to die from all worldly desires. Also without hardship we cannot enter His Kingdom. Read Acts 14:22. No matter how hard our situations or whatever tribulation comes to our lives we have to endure until the end because it will all be worth it at the end. We have to remember how the Lord suffered for us on earth. Read Philippians 1:29. I pray whoever reads this revelation will stay ready for the Rapture anytime. The most important work of our salvation is witnessing.
May God’s favor be on each and everyone who reads this message; Hallelujah.

Wal-Mart expands Christian games marketing test

Religious game studio Left Behind Games and superstore chain Wal-Mart are expanding their marketing test outside of Texas. The Christian developer announced that the original test conducted in 100 Wal-Marts last year was a success.
Wal-Mart, however, isn't convinced that there's a national market for religious video games. The next branch of the Left Behind Games market test will only be in select states and the company hasn't said which regions will be part of the test.

Left Behind games so far has six Christian-themed titles for sale: Left Behind: Eternal Forces, the sequel Tribulation Forces, and three Charlie Church Mouse games for kids ages 2 to 8.

Polish leader, 95 others dead in Russia jet crash


MOSCOW – Polish President Lech Kaczynski and some of the country's highest military and civilian leaders died when the presidential plane crashed as it came in for a landing in thick fog in western Russia on Saturday, killing 96, officials said.
Russian and Polish officials said there were no survivors on the Soviet-era Tupolev, which was taking the president, his wife and staff to events marking the 70th anniversary of the massacre of thousands of Polish officers by Soviet secret police.
The Army chief of staff, Gen. Franciszek Gagor, National Bank President Slawomir Skrzypek and Deputy Foreign Minister Andrzej Kremer were also on board, the Polish foreign ministry said.
Russia's Emergency Ministry said there were 96 dead, 88 part of a Polish state delegation. Poland's Foreign Ministry spokesman, Piotr Paszkowski, said there were 89 people on the passenger list but one person had not shown up.
"We still cannot fully understand the scope of this tragedy and what it means for us in the future. Nothing like this has ever happened in Poland," Paszkowski said. "We can assume with great certainty that all persons on board have been killed."
The governor of the Smolensk region, where the crash took place about 11 a.m. (0700 GMT), also said no one survived.
State news channel Rossiya-24 showed footage from the crash site, with pieces of the plane scattered widely amid leafless trees and small fires burning in woods shrouded with fog. A tail fin with the Polish red and white colors stuck up from the debris.
"The Polish presidential plane did not make it to the runway while landing. Tentative findings indicate that it hit the treetops and fell apart," regional governor Sergei Anufriev said on Rossiya-24. "Nobody has survived the disaster."
The presidential Tu-154 was at least 20 years old. Polish officials have long discussed replacing the planes that carry the country's leaders but said they lacked the funds. According to the Aviation Safety Network, there have been 66 crashes involving Tu-154s, including six in the past five years. The Russian carrier Aeroflot recently withdrew its Tu-154 fleet from service.
Polish-Russian relations had been improving of late after being poisoned for decades over the Katyn massacre.
Russia never has formally apologized for the murders of some 22,000 Polish officers, but Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's decision to attend a memorial ceremony earlier this week in the forest near Katyn was seen as a gesture of goodwill toward reconciliation. Rossiya-24 showed hundreds of people around the Katyn monument, many holding Polish flags, some weeping.
Putin has been put in charge of a commission investigating the crash, the Kremlin said.
In Warsaw, Prime Minister Donald Tusk called an extraordinary meeting of his Cabinet and the national flag was lowered to half-staff at the presidential palace, where people gathered to lay flowers and light candles.
Black ribbons appeared in some windows in the Polish capital.
Poland's president is commander-in-chief of its armed forces but the position's domestic duties are chiefly symbolic. Kaczynski, 60, became president in December 2005 after defeating Tusk in that year's presidential vote.
The nationalist conservative was the twin brother of Poland's opposition leader, former Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski. Kaczynski's wife, Maria, was an economist. They had a daughter, Marta, and two granddaughters.
Kaczynski had said he would seek a second term in presidential elections this fall. He was expected to face an uphill struggle against Parliament speaker Bronislaw Komorowski, the candidate of Tusk's governing Civic Platform party.
According to the constitution, Komorowski would take over presidential duties.
Poland, a nation of 38 million people, is by far the largest of the 10 formerly communist countries that have joined the European Union in recent years.
Last year, Poland was the only EU nation to avoid recession and posted economic growth of 1.7 percent.
It has become a firm U.S. ally in the region since the fall of communism — a stance that crosses party lines.
The country sent troops to the U.S.-led war in Iraq and recently boosted its contingent in Afghanistan to some 2,600 soldiers.
U.S. Patriot missiles are expected to be deployed in Poland this year. That was a Polish condition for a 2008 deal — backed by both Kaczynski and Tusk — to host long-range missile defense interceptors.
The deal, which was struck by the Bush administration, angered Russia and was later reconfigured under President Barack Obama's administration.
Under the Obama plan, Poland would host a different type of missile defense interceptors as part of a more mobile system and at a later date, probably not until 2018.
Kaczynski is the first serving Polish leader to die since exiled World War II-era leader Gen. Wladyslaw Sikorski in a plane crash off Gibraltar in 1943.
U.S. State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said Saturday, "This is a horrible tragedy for Poland and we extend to the people of Poland our deepest condolences."
Neighboring Germany's foreign minister, Guido Westerwelle, said he was "shocked and full of sadness" at Kaczynski's death.
"All the German people are mourning with our Polish neighbors," Westerwelle said during a visit to South Africa.

British boy leaves Pakistan with dad after kidnap


ISLAMABAD (AFP) – Smiling and in high spirits, a five-year-old British boy boarded a flight home from Pakistan on Thursday after being reunited with his overjoyed father following a 12-day kidnapping ordeal.
Sporting a new hair cut, Sahil Saeed kicked around a football on the lawn of the British high commissioner's residence in Islamabad, joined by a little girl playmate, and was smothered in hugs and kisses from relatives.
Smiling and waving as he was cuddled by his relieved father, Sahil seemed in high spirits and gulped down a drink brought out by a member of the household staff, television footage showed.
The emotional reunion came after his father, Raja Naqqash Saeed, flew back to Pakistan to collect his son and return him to Britain, days after the boy's uncle dropped off a 110,000 pound ransom in Paris.
"I am completely overjoyed that I have been reunited with my son after such a long ordeal," the father said in a statement released by the high commission.
"Sahil is doing well, is in good spirits and can?t wait to return to the UK to see his Mum, his family and join his friends back at school," he added, thanking British and Pakistani authorities for assisting in his son's return.
The father, son and an uncle took off for Manchester aboard Pakistan International Airlines flight 701 at 3:15 pm (1015 GMT), PIA official Mohammad Imran told AFP.
Saeed's mother Akila Naqqash, who spoke to her son by telephone from her home in Oldham, northern England, promised him a "big party" on his return.
The ordeal began when Sahil was snatched at gunpoint from his grandmother's house in the town of Jhelum, about 100 kilometres (65 miles) south of Islamabad, in the early hours of March 4 at the end of a family holiday.
Pakistani authorities, helped by British officials, launched a hunt for the boy, and 12 days later Sahil was recovered safe and sound in a field not far from Jhelum as the focus of the investigation switched to France and Spain.
British High Commissioner Adam Thomson said he was "thrilled" that Sahil was back with his father.
"This brings to an end a long period of terrible anxiety and uncertainty. I wish them all the best as they rejoin the rest of their family back in the UK," he said in a statement.
A Pakistani man and a Romanian woman, who have been charged with murder and are awaiting trial, were among five people arrested by police Tuesday.
The couple travelled from the northeastern Spanish town of Constanti, which has a large Pakistani community, to Paris, where they collected the ransom and returned to Spain, where they were arrested.
Another Pakistani man was also arrested in Constanti while French police detained two family members of the man who went to Paris for being accomplices. They had put up the couple at their Paris apartment.
The authorities made the arrests once they were informed that Sahil had been recovered in Pakistan and was safe, said the head of the Spanish police's economic and violent crime unit, commander Serafin Castro.
Police found nearly 104,000 pounds and over 3,000 euros in the couple's flat in Constanti as well as several mobile telephones, including one used to make calls to the boy's father in Paris, and a new computer.
Castro said the kidnapping began when four men armed with grenades and Kalashnikov rifles stormed the house in Jhelum and tied up all the family members as well as the driver of a taxi booked to go to the airport, before leaving with the boy.
