I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, [which] shall never hold their peace day or night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 KJV
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

■ Look east-northeast at least 45 minutes before Sunday's sunrise for the waning crescent Moon passing Venus, as shown below. This is a rather distant Moon-Venus passage; they'll never be less than 6° apart.
The waning Moon passes widely by the Morning Star Venus in the next few mornings, June 21-23, 2025.The waning Moon passes widely north of Morning Star Venus this time.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 25
■ This is the time of year when, at the end of twilight, the Little Dipper floats straight upward from Polaris — perhaps like a helium balloon escaped up into the night from some June evening party. Through light pollution or moonlight, however, all you may see of the Little Dipper are Polaris at its bottom and Kochab, the lip of the Little Dipper's bowl, at the top. The rest of its stars are fairly dim at 3rd to 5th magnitude.
■ New Moon (exact at 6:32 a.m. on this date EDT). Lunation 1268 begins.
THURSDAY***, JUNE 26
■ Say hi to Mercury left of the thin waxing crescent Moon low in the west-northwest after sundown, as shown below. Mercury will fade further for the rest of this rather poor apparition.
Thin crescent Moon and Mercury in twilight, June 25, 26, 27, 2025If you catch Mercury 3° or 4° left of the thin crescent Moon at just the right time in twilight, try for fainter Pollux and Castor to the Moon's right. Use binoculars. The thin Moon itself is hardly more than 1½ days old for North America.

I have had a dream and many confirmations that the rapture
will be on ***THURSDAY for judgment of the nations.

Psalm 19 KJV LINK
1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the Sun.
5 It is like a BRIDEGROOM coming out of his chamber,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
"He commands the sun, and it does not rise;
He seals off the stars;
He alone spreads out the heavens,
And treads on the waves of the sea;
He made the Bear, Orion, and the ***Pleiades,
And the chambers of the south..." [Job 9:7-9]
"Can you bind the cluster of the ***Pleiades,
Or loose the belt of Orion?
Can you bring out Mazzaroth in its season?[Job 38:31,32]
