In reference to what the LORD is saying today concerning Houston, we are beginning to see the “end of the old” and the “beginning of the new!” (Is. 42:9; 43:18,19) Linking the revealing of the secret, or the mystery of God from Amos 3:7,8 and Rev. 10:7, then comparative to the principle of fulfillment (sevens) with Rev. 11:15; 12:10-12; Acts 3;21; Co. 1:13; Heb. 12:27,28)
Amos 3:7,8 (NKJV)- Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals (To uncover, reveal, open, lay …bare, strip away, denude, expose, disclose, unveil) His secret (mystery) to His servants, the prophets. A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken? Who can but prophesy?
Rev. 10:7 (NKJV)- …but in the days of the sounding of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, AS HE DECLARED TO HIS SERVANTS THE PROPHETS.
Rev. 11:15 (Message)- The seventh angel trumpeted (sounded). A crescendo of (loud) voices in heaven sang out, ‘The kingdom of the world is now the kingdom of our God (Lord) and His Messiah (Christ): He will rule forever and ever.
Rev. 12:10-12 (message)- Then I heard a strong voice out of heaven saying, Salvation and power are established: kingdom of our God, authority of His Messiah: The Accuser of our brothers and sisters thrown out, who accused them day and night before God. They defeated him through the blood of the Lamb and the bold word of their witness. They weren’t in love with themselves; they were willing to die for Christ. So rejoice, O heavens, and all who live there, but doom to earth and sea, For the devil’s come down on you with both feet, he’s had a great fall; He’s wild and raging with anger, he hasn’t much time and he knows it.

Acts 3;20,21- and that He may send Jesus Christ, who was preached to you before, whom heaven must receive (hold) until the ‘times of restoration’ of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world (time) began.
Col. 1:13, 14 (Message)- God rescued us from dead-end alleys and dark dungeons. He’s set us up in the kingdom of His Son he loves so much, the Son who got us out of the pit we were in, got rid of the sins we were doomed to keep repeating.
He. 12:28,29 (Message)- Do you see what we’ve got? An unshakeable kingdom! And do you see how thankful we must be? Not only thankful, but brimming with worship, deeply reverent before God. For God is no an indifferent bystander. He’s actively cleaning house, torching all that needs to burn, and He won’t quit until it’s all cleansed. God Himself is FIRE!!!
