Life is NOT Returning Back to Normal – In Fact it’s ADVANCING to Terrible – How You Can AVIOD What’s Coming

December 10, 2025 | www.EndTimesWatch.blog |River Wilde

Remember life prior to Covid-19? It seems like forever ago, but things were a lot different back then. I believe the best word to describe that period of time was “Normal.” Our lives seemed to flow in a steady pattern, and expectations were defined with minimal surprises. But, what about now?

Normal seems to be eliminated from all that we are involved in; Replaced by the cutting emotion of “Uncomfortable.” Everything is different, and feels off…like the wheels of an amusement ride derailed but continuing forward. Similar experiences, but empty joy.

If you listen, you can hear the whispers of humanity calling out a simple request: “I just wished that things would get back to normal.” Will they ever return to that? Is there PURPOSE in what is happening right now?

For a moment, I would like you to see things from God’s perspective. I speak not from prophetic scriptures that I have studied, but rather from my own experiences that I have had in my life…with…God Himself.

Several articles ago, I shared an experience that had happened to me. A period of time in my life where I had left God, and was “off-track” in my spiritual journey. Because of God’s love for me, He allowed the most frightening experience to happen to me…one that changed me forever. I was lost in the snowy Uinta mountains in Utah, resigned to accept my death. I was freezing to death, but miraculously, I was rescued by the hand of God.

This is my credibility for the authorship of today’s writing, for I have seen how God works first-hand with those He loves… His children.

Things in our world today HAVE CHANGED, and they will NOT RETURN to “Normal,” for this too is God’s plan. It is human nature to stay on a path that is comfortable. Sadly, the path that they world is on is not the path that our God would like us to be on.

2 Timothy 3:2 (KJV)

“For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,”

This verse is part of a larger passage where the Apostle Paul is warning Timothy about difficult times in the last-days. The passage continues with a list of other characteristics that will mark people in those times, including being without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, and lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God. This is where we are today.

Through God’s wisdom, He is allowing the consequences of sin to play out. Furthermore, He is involved in the lives of many, creating additional hardships for one “loving” purpose…To create the desire to change the course of their lives.

Just as what happened to me as a result of my hardship being lost, I returned back to God, and committed once again to follow Him, that is His intent with all of the world right now. To move people out of the comfort zone of “sin” and the pleasures of this earth, into an eternal perspective and preparation for what is to come. God want’s all of His children to return to HIM. MANY are LOST right now, and God desires to get their attention.

The desire and actions from God right now carry a similar desired response from all of us. He wants all of us to realize that the only peace there is comes from Jesus Christ. God wants YOU to return to HIM right now, and it all starts in kneeling down and approaching Him in prayer and asking for Him to once again be a part of your life.

With this new understanding, might I suggest the following steps to proceed through this difficult period of time?

1. Realize that we are NOT returning to a NORMAL life, and this is designed by a loving Father in Heaven.

2. Recognize what path you are actually on. Are you still on the path and lifestyle of this once NORMAL life? Is God part of your life now? If He is not, HE is trying to get your attention. He is using this uncomfortable period of time in hopes that you will see something better…more PEACEFUL… Your life including HIM!

3. Make a change in your life to include God. Accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and Redeemer. Repent and accept His atoning sacrifice to be forgive of those sins.

4. There is one ADDITIONAL teaching that supports what I am writing about. Come with me, as I show you what is to happen, AGAIN from Gods perspective.

It is my belief that the Rapture will be happening very soon. If you are not on God’s team right now, you will miss the rapture, and will be on the earth when the 7-year tribulation period begins. Let me explain the 7-year tribulation period in a simple format.

The war between God and satan will enter into the final 7 years on earth. Satan will come as the antichrist, “The Beast” and will have one last attempt to sway people into following him, rather than following God.

During this period of time, GOD too is giving mankind ONE LAST CHANCE for them to accept Jesus Christ as their Savior, and live with God forever in heaven, vs living with satan in the “Lake of Fire” in misery. This is the final showdown in the battle between God and satan. The FINAL 7 years of Earth’s existence.

So, what is God’s plan in helping people return to Him during this 7year tribulation period? It is much like what is actually happening right now with creating hardship, only this time, His program will be on “Steroids.” Let me show you:

God plans on pouring out 7 Bowls of Wrath upon all of the inhabitants of the earth during the 7-year Tribulation period. Here are the exact details taken from the KJV of the Bible:

1. First Bowl – Poured upon the earth, causing grievous sores on those who had the mark of the beast and worshipped his image (Revelation 16:2)

2. Second Bowl – Poured upon the sea, turning it to blood like that of a dead man, killing every living creature in the sea (Revelation 16:3)

3. Third Bowl – Poured upon the rivers and fountains of waters, turning them to blood (Revelation 16:4)

4. Fourth Bowl – Poured upon the sun, which was given power to scorch people with fire and intense heat (Revelation 16:8-9)

5. Fifth Bowl – Poured upon the throne of the beast, plunging his kingdom into darkness, causing people to gnaw their tongues in pain (Revelation 16:10-11)

6. Sixth Bowl – Poured upon the great river Euphrates, drying it up to prepare the way for the kings from the east to gather at Armageddon (Revelation 16:12-16) (Actually happening right now)

7. Seventh Bowl – Poured into the air, followed by a voice saying “It is done,” accompanied by lightning, thunder, and a massive earthquake that divided the great city into three parts, collapsed the cities of nations, destroyed islands and mountains, and caused hailstones weighing about a talent (approximately 100 pounds) to fall upon people (Revelation 16:17-21)

God is punishing those who are following satan, but he is also “creating hardship” for those left on earth in hopes that they will accept Jesus Christ and return to God.

Can you see the pattern here that I am writing about.

It happened to me PERSONALLY – Hardship that turned me back to God.

Right NOW on the earth – Hardship, hoping to bring people back to God, by accepting Jesus Christ.

And in the 7-year Tribulation – ONE LAST Attempt – Using Extreme hardship to bring people back to God by accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

For those of you who are thinking that this is so extreme on Gods part, let me ask you… Are you aware of the concept of “Tough Love?” Parents using extreme measures to get their kids back on track. Is it the parent’s fault for using such measures, or is it a last valiant attempt to save someone who is on the wrong track?

God allows free agency. He will not FORCE a person to choose Him. He does however show “tough love” for those who are stubborn in giving them a fair chance to return to Him.

If you are one who is reading this, and miss the upcoming rapture, I would like for you to know the truth:

You are on track to live with satan in the lake of fire unless you do something drastic. If this were not the case, you would have been included in the rapture.

You can change the coarse that you are on by learning of Jesus Christ, repenting of your sins, and accepting Christ into your life. You MUST be Born Again as it states in the KJV of the Bible:

The new birth happens when a person:

1. Recognizes their sin — “For all have sinned” (Rom. 3:23).
2. Repents — turning away from their old life (Acts 3:19).
3. Believes fully in Jesus Christ — His death, burial, and resurrection (Rom. 10:9–10).
4. Calls upon Him — surrendering to Him as Lord (Rom. 10:13).
5. Receives the Holy Spirit — who seals and transforms them (Eph. 1:13–14).

You can do this all today, so that you will be included in the rapture, but if you do not, and find yourself in the brutal period of time, the 7-year Tribulation Period, you MUST do it then, or you will be lost forever…following the “loser of this spiritual battle” satan and living in “Hell” for eternity. The choice is yours, as well as the consequences.

One thing is certain; the world will not be changing back to NORMAL. As things advance into the final 7 years on earth, the NEW definition for this period of time will be “HORRIABLE!”

I suggest that you get a ticket to be removed from what is coming, and be a part of God’s RESCUE Plan – the Rapture.
