When the rapture occurs, what will the first 90 days look like? What are the events that will take place in this chaotic period of time? Scriptures give us some answers to these questions, let’s look:

DAY 0 — THE RAPTURE (THE TRIGGER EVENT)

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout… 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…”
— 1 Thessalonians 4:16–17 (KJV)

What happens instantly:

The Church is removed

The Holy Spirit’s restraining ministry through believers ends (2 Thess. 2:7)

Millions vanish worldwide

Graves open (Matt. 27:52 is a pattern, not the event)

The world is not told “this was the rapture.”
Deception begins immediately.

DAYS 1–10 — SHOCK, CONFUSION, AND LAWLESSNESS

“Only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.”
— 2 Thessalonians 2:7

Immediate effects:

Moral restraint collapses

Crime, unrest, panic

Governments scramble for explanations

Media narrative forms quickly (natural causes, alien theory, mass psychosis, etc.)

“Because iniquity shall abound…”
— Matthew 24:12 (KJV)

This is not yet Tribulation wrath — it’s the removal of restraint.

DAYS 10–30 — THE “PEACE & SAFETY” RESPONSE

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them…”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:3

What rises up fast:

Emergency global cooperation

Calls for unity, stability, order

Push for centralized leadership

Economic stabilization measures

This is where the stage is set, not yet where prophecy fully ignites.

A KEY TRANSITION EVENT — ANTICHRIST REVEALED

“…that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.”
— 2 Thessalonians 2:3

“And then shall that Wicked be revealed…”
— 2 Thessalonians 2:8

Important:
He is revealed, not necessarily universally recognized yet.

At this stage:

Seen as a problem-solver

Charismatic, calm, authoritative

Not openly blasphemous yet

WITHIN THE FIRST 30–90 DAYS — THE COVENANT

“And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week…”
— Daniel 9:27 (KJV)

This is the official start of the 7-year Tribulation.

Key details:

“With many” (not all)

Likely tied to Israel and peace/security

Temple worship becomes possible again

The Bible does not say the covenant is signed the same day as the rapture — only after restraint is gone and before judgment intensifies.

HEAVEN AT THE SAME TIME (PARALLEL EVENT)

While the world reels…

“After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude… stood before the throne.”
— Revelation 7:9

“Let us be glad and rejoice… for the marriage of the Lamb is come.”
— Revelation 19:7

In Heaven during this window:

Judgment Seat of Christ (2 Cor. 5:10)

Rewards given

Marriage of the Lamb prepared

WHAT IS NOT HAPPENING YET (IMPORTANT)

❌ No Mark of the Beast yet
❌ No forced worship yet
❌ No image of the beast yet
❌ No trumpet or vial judgments yet

Those come later.

“To every thing there is a season…”
— Ecclesiastes 3:1

✔ Tribulation officially begins

FINAL SOBER THOUGHT

The Bible never tells us to guess dates — it tells us to recognize order.

“Ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.”
— 1 Thessalonians 5:4

Even though it is not necessary to know the details after the rapture happens, it is helpful in seeing how things are taking shape for those events to occur as well.

I believe we are very close—possibly even now—to a peace agreement being signed between Israel and its neighboring nations. As this writing shows, such an agreement will arise in response to the chaos and lawlessness that immediately follow the Rapture. That environment will set the stage for the Antichrist to emerge as a so-called “solution leader,” stepping in to fill the vacuum left by the sudden loss of restraint.

This teaching today is intended to help us all realize that we are in the “Season” of the Rapture.
