Keeping Covenant – Opening the Fourth Seal

15/9/2023

The trumpet will sound. We are further along the timeline than most people think. The ‘birthpangs‘ of the Kingdom are about to begin in earnest. The ‘pale horse‘ brings ‘Death‘ & ‘Hell‘. According to Jeremiah 30:6-7 ‘every man‘ will have ‘his hands on his loins‘ like a ‘woman in travail‘. Their ‘faces will turn to paleness‘. Why? Because the ‘time of Jacob’s trouble has come‘, people suddenly know that they are in the ‘tribulation‘ and they are not prepared in their hearts for it and they have not been ‘raptured‘. Many will fall away in apostasy if they are not truly the Lord’s. The good news is that the remnant of Jacob ‘shall be saved‘. Nevertheless we are coming into a time of judgement, this Feast of Trumpets announces it and the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) locks it in. Judgements will begin to move more quickly and by Passover 2024 we will be living in a different world. I hope that you will stick around and read to the end of this article. Proverbs says, ‘get understanding‘, it doesn’t say ‘stick your head in the sand‘. If you have a better understanding of what is coming then you are better able to make wise choices and prepare your heart and circumstances. The best advice I can give is that we humble ourselves and fast and pray and seek the face of the Lord. The enemy is coming to lie, steal and kill. And the Lord is coming for His remnant!

Introduction

The Feast of Trumpets is upon us. The Lord wants us to wake up. The Lord is about to shout. The Lord’s eyes are a flame of fire. The Lord is about to visit His flock with judgement both with curses and blessings. Death is coming, but so is a miraculous birth. In this time of travail, the Kingdom of Darkness and the Kingdom of Light shall clash and both will grow in manifest power. At this time of the blowing of trumpets, if we are listening to His still small voice, we must also blew the trumpet and declare the Word of God faithfully. Help us Father to be faithful. Let us fear You alone and not the faces of men.

Cry aloud,
spare not,
lift up thy voice like a trumpet,
and shew my people their transgression,
and the house of Jacob their sins.

Isaiah 58:1

We are entering dark days, but the Lord is with us if we are with Him!

The Fourth Seal is the middle or central Seal of the seven Seal judgements. The Fourth Seal corresponds to the fourth day of creation, to the Sun, Moon & Stars. By extension it corresponds to Joseph’s dream of the same. This is a time when much of Joseph and Israel (and humanity) have become dross, they have waxed fat like bulls and ‘Jeshurun‘ has kicked against their Maker. The iniquity of Ephraim may be bound up but the ‘drunkards of Ephraim‘ shall be trodden under foot, Isaiah 28. Birthpangs are coming on strong now but there is hope!

12 The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is hid.
13 The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come upon him: he is an unwise son; for he should not stay long in the place of the breaking forth of children.

Hosea 13:12-13

Now what’s this talking about? This is actually talking about the 144,000. It’s talking about a time of travail that comes upon the church in America and elsewhere. And that we shouldn’t stay too long after the 144,000 are released. And we are coming into a time that before she travails she brings forth a ‘man child‘. This is the first lot of 144,000 related to the barley harvest.

Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.

Isaiah 66:7

A few verses later she brings forth her children, the second lot of 144,000 related to the wheat harvest on Pentecost. These verses link to Revelation 12.

The fourth seal aligns with Pentecost, the fourth feast. A child shall be born amidst death. The fourth Seal aligns with the fourth church, Thyatira. This church had a witch called Jezebel calling the shots. But it also had the most masculine overcomers that will rule the nations with a ‘rod of iron‘ just like Yeshua. A marriage is coming but why is Yeshua, who opens the Seals, releasing Death?

It is not until the fourth seal that people know what time it is! The word translated ‘Pale‘ is the Greek word χλωρος, chloros which means ‘pale green‘. The Pale horse of Death is coming, the Lord keeps his Covenant, and the faces of the people shall ‘turn into paleness‘ (יֵרָקֽוֹן, from a Hebrew root יֵרָקֽ meaning green). So we are told from the old testament here that they are ‘turn into paleness‘ while in the new testament it talks about the ‘pale horse‘ in Revelation 6:7-8. So these two link together. It is the same event.

6 Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child?
wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins,
as a woman in travail,
and all faces are turned into paleness (יֵרָקֽוֹן)?
7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it:
it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble;
but he shall be saved out of it.

Jeremiah 30:6-7

And we seen that in Isaiah 66 its says that before she travailed she brought forth a son (‘man child‘) so there is an awakening of the 144,000, a commissioning of them. The Lord is going to send his servants in the first watch and their about to be sent out now! We are coming into the time of ‘Jacob’s trouble‘, so the 144,000 are going to be raised up and commissioned before that, just as it comes into that time of travail. So before she travailed she brought fourth her son, the man child, but there’s another time of travail when she brings forth ‘her children‘ which is the 144,000 related to Pentecost and the wheat harvest.

Who hath heard such a thing?
who hath seen such things?
Shall the earth be made to bring forth in one day?
or shall a nation be born at once?
for as soon as Zion travailed,
she brought forth her children.

Isaiah 66:8

We have just completed the Torah reading cycle for the year. Read the Song of Moses in Deuteronomy 32, it’s all about the tribulation, a time when the Lord hides his face from his rebellious people due to their apostasy, forsaking their Lord to serve devils. The Song of Moses is about the year that we are about to enter. But Salvation is coming to the righteous during the judgement of ‘death‘! We must be encouraged that the birthpangs do bring the 144,000 and the 2nd exodus and the Kingdom of God.

We are coming into a time where all the accumulating judgements of escalating persecution, plagues, wars, economic collapse and natural disasters bring about the perfect storm causing widespread death on a scale we have not seen before. We are already seeing death coming from the needle and this is about to dramatically increase. What hope do we have? That is really up to us. We are at the end of the ‘church age‘ and the Lord is bringing both blessing and cursing in accordance with the Covenant.

I call heaven and earth to record this day against you,
that I have set before you life and death,
blessing and cursing:
therefore choose life,
that both thou and thy seed may live:

Deuteronomy 30:19

Yeshua is looking for His Bride. Yeshua is a Jealous lover. If he suspects us of infidelity we shall drink bitter water (Read about that in numbers 5). Yeshua is now looking at the church with eyes like a flame of fire, Revelation 1:14, 2:18. Fire is the jealousy of love.

Set me as a seal upon thine heart,
as a seal upon thine arm:
for love is strong as death;
jealousy is cruel as the grave:
the coals thereof are coals of fire,
which hath a most vehement flame.

Song of Solomon 8:6

Like the Song says, the 144,000 may be sealed in their ‘heart‘ before they are sealed on their ‘arm‘, that is, in their flesh with a resurrection body. Love is as strong as death. Yeshua is separating the ‘true believers‘ from the ‘make believers‘, the Bride from the Whore. In Revelation 12 we have Zion giving birth while in great pain.

There is a live birth coming in a time of death and travail. Love is about to begin the process of sealing those that belong to God in a time of death. The 144,000 are first to be sealed and then all of Zion. The sealing occurs during the feasts. Three times a year the males are to appear before the Lord, during Unleavened Bread, Pentecost & Tabernacles, Exodus 23:17, Deuteronomy 16:16. They are not to appear before the Lord empty, which reminds me of the parable of the talents, they are to use the talent to get more for their Lord, more souls. And this would appear to correspond with the ‘three watches‘ where the Lord sends forth his servants, Luke 12:38. They are to harvest for the Good Master. There is a harvest of both life and death coming and it’s about to begin in earnest.

As our world darkens and death begins to stalk the human race, the Lord is about to commission his 144,000 to preach the gospel of the Kingdom and to bring the remnant of Zion (the church of the firstborn) through a harrowing time. Death is coming to many. The bible tells us the following.

But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul:
all they that hate me love death.

Proverbs 8:36

We may already be in the ‘beginning of sorrows‘ and most folks are asleep to the judgement that is about to fall. Through Covid we have had 3.5 years time to wake up. We may already be in the early part of the tribulation, a tribulation that has been creeping up on us, a tribulation by stealth and not the way we thought it would be. One thing is for sure, It is clear that things are only going to escalate as our nations turn to legalised madness and government sanctioned sexual depravity. Our nations have become as Sodom and our cities will burn and our nations shall be judged and invaded. There are no exceptions. God is Holy. During the fourth seal the pace will quicken.

According to Deuteronomy we are about to be judged. He has already warned us.

22 So that the generation to come of your children that shall rise up after you, and the stranger that shall come from a far land, shall say, when they see the plagues of that land, and the sicknesses which the LORD hath laid upon it;
23 And that the whole land thereof is brimstone, and salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth, nor any grass groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:

Deuteronomy 29:22-23

Many of the churches have capitulated to the standards of the world in order to be accepted. They have become breading grounds for depravity and teach compliance with the morals of our Sodomitish nations. The New Testament says the same thing as the Old, judgement is coming…

And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;

II Peter 2:6

If you read Isaiah 24 you will see Deuteronomy 29:22-23 literally being fulfilled. This may be a year or so away!

Wherefore glorify ye the LORD in the fires, even the name of the LORD God of Israel in the isles of the sea.

Isaiah 24:15

This will be like the movie ‘2012’ that came out years ago where the USA and many parts of the world were wrecked by huge earthquakes that overturned sections of California and brought huge waves.

Our Sodomitish nations will soon be burning. But before that they shall be visited by Death. The true faithful remnant will come together in that time of darkness and be the only source of light in a dying world.

The Fourth Seal & Dominion

The number four is about dominion, north, south, east & west. Abraham was promised the land, all that he could see, all that he tread upon. The number four is also about reproduction and the promised seed. The fourth day of creation saw the Sun, Moon and stars formed which was used to depict the seed of Israel in Joseph’s dream. The fourth feast, Pentecost is about the harvest of wheat seed and the birth of the church. The four species used in Sukkot (Tabernacles) represent four different seed types. So four is about land and seed. Abraham was also promised a Son as well as dominion over the promised land. Later that promise is passed down to Israel. If they walked in obedience they would have dominion and dwell in the land and multiply. However if they were disobedient then they would be cursed and would leave and many would die. Exile is also a form of death.

We are currently in exile, our nations are not the ultimate ‘promised land‘. Our nations are being judged now. All the nations that Israel dwells in shall be destroyed.

Fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith the LORD: for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee: but I will not make a full end of thee, but correct thee in measure; yet will I not leave thee wholly unpunished.

Jeremiah 46:28

America has become Babylon and Sodom and it will burn. And so shall Australia etc. In fact the current State of Israel has not kept her Shmitta years so she will have to go in exile, at least in part if the Lord is true to Torah, Leviticus 26:34. The USA and Israel contain the bulk of the Israelites, Jews and lost tribers. I think they could be both attacked at about the same time and Russia will be the head of a coalition against them. This is due to sin that the Lord must deal with in the House of Judah and Israel.

But what do we do if we are trying to obey the Lord even though our nations have become wicked? What happens when there is a group of Israelites or gentile believers that are obeying God in the last days but they dwell amongst the disobedient? The Lord promises never to leave us or forsake us. He will cause the righteous to shine in these dark and evil days, Isaiah 60:1. The woman of Revelation 12 is in mortal danger and in pain but she is shining. Satan can’t get her or her seed. That seed is the 144,000 manchild firstfruits that is resurrected/raptured. Then there is the 2nd exodus from America and elsewhere as has been copiously blogged about previously.

The Lord gave Adam and Eve dominion, Genesis 1:26-28. However their perfect rule over creation was rudely interrupted by the serpent and they were banished from Paradise. Now Death reigned in Adam’s fallen race.

The fourth Horseman’s name is ‘Death‘. He is not the sort of fellow you want knocking on your door. But he is a persistent chap. Let’s read what Revelation has to say.

7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

Revelation 6:7-8

All of the previous 3 horsemen culminate in the fourth horsemen. The rider of the red horse of the second seal had a ‘great sword‘, and a sword is present in the fourth seal. The the rider of the black horse of the third seal with scales in his hands brought economic scarcity but there was still oil and wine. Now with the fourth horsemen, Death, people are killed with hunger So scarcity in the 3rd seal now results starvation. The fourth horseman brings the opposite for what God intended for mankind and Israel, these are the curses of Deuteronomy 28 and Leviticus 26. After death comes Hell on earth, including the demons, nephilim and fallen angels. This will be during a time of war and invasion. We will also see a Zombie Apocalypse that I have spoken of copiously previously.

The fourth seal only affects a quarter of the earth. There are still places free from death. A quarter of the earth’s population is killed, about 2 billion people are dead within a year. Three quarters of the population are still alive. The Fourth Seal of the Apocalypse is part of the curses of Deuteronomy 28. There is a price for disobedience and ultimately that price is death.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Romans 6:23

Death is not our friend. We are told that the final enemy is death.

The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

I Corinthians 15:26

Yeshua is opening the scroll, Yeshua is loosening the 7 Seals. Why is the Prince of Life bringing death? Well He is simply paying disobedient mankind their wages including a false swearing church. So the Lord is bringing death. Nevertheless there is spiritual life coming to the remnant, Yeshua came to give us life and life in abundance. Miracles and signs and wonders will come amidst great distress and pain, these are the labour pains of the woman. We shall see a true contrast between life and death, between blessing and cursing during the fourth seal. But it will be painful even if we are shining!

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy:
I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

John 10:10

We are given a choice whom we shall serve. All Israel stood at attention before the mountain of fire and swore with an oath to obey Him. The Lord charged them them to choose life through obedience to His law.

I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:

Deuteronomy 30:19

Many Christians think that by glibly giving ‘mental accent‘ to some doctrines that they are saved. But if the Holy Spirit is to remain with us we must learn to obey the Lord. If the Lord has truly written the law on our hearts then we should be doing what it says. We should be reading his word and walking it out. Otherwise we deceive ourselves.

The fourth horseman is bringing the wages for disobedience. God’s patience has come to an end. Besides, he has a wedding planned.

Sadly during this time there will also be people that are killed that do truly believe with saving faith. There are martyrs. But they will not hurt by the second death, eternal damnation. We must remember though who is in control, the Lord. He opens the Seals. We need to humble ourselves.

But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear:
Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell;
yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

Luke 12:5

How can we find mercy in a time of judgement?

Seek ye the LORD,
all ye meek of the earth,
which have wrought his judgment;
seek righteousness,
seek meekness:
it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.

Zephaniah 2:3

So seeking the Lord is a big part of finding mercy. Also walking uprightly and staying humble. Here’s another verse worth taking note of in Amos.

For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:

Amos 5:4

So even in a time of death and cursing the Lord can be bringing life and blessing for His remnant flock.

If we want our dominion over the earth back then we have to get out of the power of Satan by walking in obedience.

For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

Romans 6:14

Speaking of ‘dominion‘, which is related to the 4 compass points, there is a correspondence to the ‘overcomers‘ of the fourth church. They are given a promise that links them to the Manchild of Revelation 12, they rule with a ‘rod of Iron‘!

And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

Revelation 2:27

Compare this with Revelation 12…

And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

Revelation 12:5

So the manchild is not just Yeshua it is the overcomers of Thyatira that rule with a ‘rod of iron‘ under Him. They are His brethren. They are the 144,000 firstfruits of the resurrection.

Another interesting point is that the Lord warns this same church that He will kill her children with ‘Death’ because they allow Jezebel to teach. So the fourth church, Thyatira doubly relates to the fourth seal.

And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

Revelation 2:23

The phrase ‘kill her children with death‘ is strange because if you are killed then of course you die. So ‘death‘ must refer to the ‘Angel of Death‘, the grim reaper so to speak! I believe that this is the rider on the Pale horse.

So this church has those that rule with a rod of iron and those that are killed with death. So this doubly links us also to the fourth seal which is death. God is cleaning house. If ‘Death‘ visits America and the world from September 2023 then the manchild that rules with a ‘rod of iron‘ shall begin to rise also.

4th seal = 4th church = rod of iron = Manchild = 144,000 = Seed that has dominion of the earth.

A Covenant with Death & Hell

I think that the Covid 19 shot is related to the first seal, the rider on the white horse, bringing ‘the curse that goes into all the earth‘ as spoken of in Zechariah 5:8. The Covid 19 shot was a world wide death injection.

3 Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.
4 I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.

Zechariah 5:3-4

The house represents the body of those that have been injected. Their body literally begins to rot! This is truly horrific.

This curse is related to the ‘Covenant with Death‘ that is declared by the ‘drunkards of Ephraim‘ and Jerusalem as Isaiah 28 makes clear. The white horse subdues the earth without even having arrows in it’s quiver. It is white, it takes over peacefully. The rider has a crown. Yeshua is sending the rider to Ephraim and Jerusalem and the whole earth because they have forsaken Him and made a ‘Covenant with Death‘.

15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
17 Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.

Isaiah 28:15-18

In the first seal they have made a covenant with death and hell and in the fourth seal Death and Hell are coming to collect.

Yeshua warned us that if the salt looses it’s savour it will be cast out and trodden down.

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Matthew 5:13

So the ‘trodden under foot of men‘ mentioned in Matthew is due to the covenant of death in Isaiah 28. We are living in the time of the fulfilment of this ancient prophecy now!

Most people are so blind that they don’t even realise that we are living in the time where this prophecy is being fulfilled!

1 Seal per Year?

Note the following progression…
In December 2020 the mRNA Covid-19 death shot vaccines started to be pumped into the blood of mankind, defiling the human race with a transhumanist nightmare. The Hebrew years begin in about September in terms of calculating judgements and jubilees. So into 2021 the vaccinations were pushed hard and people were threatened with losing their job if they didn’t let the government shoot them up.

While vaccinations were still in progress a year later in 2022 the war in Ukraine began to be stirred up noticeably. Here is the Red horse. World war 3 did not break out but the seeds of it were planted and it has only gotten worse. Now NATO is throwing in weapons and mercenaries and others are fighting a proxy war with Russia and it is being stoked to bring about WW3.

In 2023 we began to see a war on food production and banks began to fail. Although we are still eating, the cost of living has gone up and up and many are struggling. Here is the beginning of the Black horse with scales in its hands beginning to ride with economic scarcity. People are spending much more simply to put food on the table.

The horses are riding and slowly the judgements are piling up and gaining strength.

So if the trend continues we should see the fourth seal released this September and death will be stalking. The seal ramps up over the course of the year and continue after the year they begin at least until all 6 seals are completed. Many of those that took the first seal covid death shots will die at a much faster rate in the fourth seal. The War in Ukraine and elsewhere will escalate. The economy will crash harder and harder. The vaccines will again be pushed amidst far deadlier diseases. And we should begin to see larger and larger earthquakes.

Look, I want to say this upfront, yes like many folks I can see that there is a storm coming. However what follows is still speculation when it comes to the details. I think that from September things are going to begin to get out of hand. The world war is about to spread, that is the red horse of Revelation 6 but happening now during the unfolding of the fourth seal judgement. This red horse also includes civil war and gang warfare and domestic violence etc, taking peace from the earth. The world economy is going to continue to tank, that’s the black horse of Revelation 6. Food a fuel prices are going to rise even further until we are in a global famine situation, including first world nations like the USA and Australia for example. And I see a rise in killer flu’s and man made pestilences including those caused by the Covid vaccines and even ‘normal’ vaccines and contaminated food and water etc. They are gearing up to push vaccinations all over again as real deadly diseases are released. Censorship, persecution and tyranny have already begun and it is gathering pace. I am not a prophet, I base what I have said on what is already happening. I am prophetic in the sense that I read the word of God and am aware of some of what is going on because of this. We should all be reading our bibles. So anyway when you notice all these accumulating and coalescing judgements that have been going on over the past 3 years together it is moving towards the ‘perfect storm‘. So I believe that the white, red, and black horses have already been released one year apart. And I believe we are about to see all four horsemen ride together with the pale, horse, the Fourth Seal judgement of Revelation 6.

Below is a diagram of what could be happening. We are easing into the tribulation without many people really being aware of it, because the seals are released and the judgements start off small and gather pace over time. The Antichrist will appear during a time of war according to Daniel 11. I suspect that to many in the world he will appear as Mr Fix it. I believe we are on the cusp of all of these judgements coming together as the perfect storm. We shall soon be keenly aware that we are living in the times of the birthpangs that Yeshua warned us of in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21.

We are already in the tribulation, 1 Seal opened per year, but it doesn’t become apparent to many until the fourth seal opens from the seventh Hebrew month this September. As the year progresses we should see a horrifying acceleration in the decline and death in our nations. I have some issues with the timing of the exodus because the fall of the stars occurs at the 6th seal along with our rescue. In any case the process of exodus will occur during the 4th seal with the birth of the manchild, during the first watch. If the 144,000 harvest workers are commissioned this September then they will prepare Zion for the exodus as things rapidly worsen in our nations. They are related to the barley harvest and then there is the wheat firstfruits for the second watch during Pentecost, Luke 12:38, Exodus 23:17, Deuteronomy 16:16.

When are the Seals released?

The Day of Atonement is Judgement day. Judgement for the following year is set on the Day of Atonement or Yom Kippur in Hebrew. This is on the 10th day of the 7th Hebrew month Tishrei which is usually in September or early October. The New Covenant that was paid for during Passover by the Lamb of God, Yeshua, but the new covenant comes in it’s fullness to the House of Israel and Judah in these ‘last days‘ on Yom Kippur. Yom Kippur is a fasting day that will be turned into a feasting day at the marriage of the Lamb. And leading up to that marriage is the breaking of the 7 seals. And as I have stated a number of times I believe we are in the midst of this process and are entering the fourth seal. And most don’t even realise it because it is creeping up gradually and cumulatively one disaster at a time, one decree at a time, one seal at a time! (I will talk about this in more detail in the next short section from the apocryphal book of 2nd Baruch.)

So the day of Atonement brings judgement. Sabbatical years and Jubilees are calculated in the 7th month. The Jubilee trumpet is blown once every 50 years during the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur). Read Leviticus 25 for details. A Jubilee can bring judgement if we have done evil and will also bring the day of the ‘vengeance‘ of our God, Isaiah 61:1-2, as I discussed in the previous blog.

The reason that there are 7 seals leading up to the marriage of the Lamb is because the Lord must judge His people in righteousness before He marries a spotless bride. Indeed the tribulation helps to get her spotless and shining. Yeshua as high priest and groom must give her bitter waters to drink if He suspects her of adultery, Numbers 5:18. Those that say ‘it can’t happen to me because I’m and American‘ or that are have the attitude of saying in their heart ‘I am a Queen and I can’t be touched‘ should watch out. We all fail in many ways. We need to be humble. Yeshua sees our hearts better than we do. He ‘searcheth the reins and hearts’, Revelation 2:23.

Let’s first read from 2nd Baruch which sheds some light on what is coming and how it comes.

2 Baruch: Judgements merging?

Now I know the following passage from 2nd Baruch is not in what we call the ‘cannon of scripture‘ but it appears to back up my suspicions that the 4 horsemen have been gradually released so that the full force of their release comes later. So people are unaware that we have entered the tribulation. Time will tell if my suspicions are correct. I feel that what is known as the ‘beginning of sorrows‘ is directly upon us and it coincides with the release of the 4th seal judgement of death when the pale horse is released. The other 3 horses have already been released and they will all combine and gather strength for the perfect storm as I have noted earlier. Let’s be reminded of what Yeshua said in Matthew 24.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Matthew 24:6-8

Now let’s look at 2nd Baruch because it tells us how these events creep up gradually. 2nd Baruch chapter 27 verses 1 to 12 breaks the judgements into ‘twelve parts‘ and describes them combining so that there is ‘disorder arising from a conglomeration of everything which has been previously mentioned‘, verse 13. Verse 14 states that these judgements will mix and increase the other judgements, in other words they will merge and grow in strength and rapidity as time goes by. Have a look at the prophecy here.

27.1 And he answered and said to me:
“That time is divided into twelve parts,
and each part is reserved for its appointed task:
2 “In the first part,
there shall be the beginning of commotions.
3 “And in the second part:
the slaughtering of the great.
4 “And in the third part: the fall of many into death.
5 “And in the fourth part: the sending of the sword.
6 “And in the fifth part: famine and the withholding of rain.
7 “And in the sixth part: […]
8 [“And in the seventh part:] earthquakes and terrors.1
9 “And in the eighth part: a multitude of phantoms and the attacks of demons.
10 “And in the ninth part: the fall of fire.
11 “And in the tenth part: rape and much oppression.
12 “And in the eleventh part: injustice and unchastity.
13 “And in the twelfth part: disorder arising from a conglomeration of everything which has been previously mentioned.
14 “For these parts of that time are reserved,
and will be mixed, one with another,
and they will minister to each other.
15 For some of these parts will withhold a portion of themselves while taking from others, and some will accomplish their own portion as well as that of others; hence, those who live on earth in those days will not understand that this is the end of times.
28.1 But at that time, whoever understands will be wise. 2 For the measure and the calculation of that time is two parts a week of seven weeks.”

2 Baruch 27:1-15 & 28:1

Notice that there is a purpose for the gradual accumulation of judgements. So that ‘those who live on earth in those days will not understand that this is the end of times‘.

Notice also whoever ‘understands will be wise‘ which reminds me of Daniel 12:10 that states that the ‘wise shall understand‘. Isn’t that what is going on? People say the tribulation has begun, others say no it’s not yet. But actually it has crept up on us. As I say, tribulation by stealth! But the wise shall understand.

Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise shall understand.

Daniel 12:10

If ever there is a time where we need both wisdom and humility it is now!

I am not sure what ‘two parts of a week of seven weeks‘ is referring to. I know that Jacob worked for two weeks of years for his two wives, Rachel and Lea, giving us 14 years in total. Pharaoh had a dream of 7 good and 7 bad years. I think this has end times implications. But that is another for another blog.

Let’s look at what good things the Lord is going to do at the same time and tie up some loose ends.

When are the 144,000 Sealed?

There is a clue in the apocryphal book of 2 Esdras that the ‘number of those that be sealed in the feast of the Lord‘. What does this mean? Well firstly we are not given the name of the feast but we are given a very big clue because it mentions ‘joyfulness’ and being ‘glad’. There is only one feast in which we are specifically told to ‘rejoice‘ and that is Tabernacles or Sukkot in Hebrew.

13 Thou shalt observe the feast of tabernacles seven days, after that thou hast gathered in thy corn and thy wine:
14 And thou shalt rejoice in thy feast, thou, and thy son, and thy daughter, and thy manservant, and thy maidservant, and the Levite, the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, that are within thy gates.

Deuteronomy 16:13-14

Anyway let’s read the book of 2 Esdras to see when sealing occurs.

36 Flee the shadow of this world, receive the joyfulness of your glory: I testify my Saviour openly.
37 O receive the gift that is given you, and be glad, giving thanks unto him that hath led you to the heavenly kingdom.
38 Arise up and stand, behold the number of those that be sealed in the feast of the Lord;
39 Which are departed from the shadow of the world, and have received glorious garments of the Lord.

II Esdras 2:36-39

So the 144,000 will be sealed during the feast of Sukkot (Tabernacles) as far as I can tell. The receiving of glorious garments refers to new bodies and possibly also literal glorious outfits, perhaps a little like what the superheroes wear, just guessing!

However it is my suspicion which I shared in my previous blog post titled ‘Birthpangs of Kingdom: An Acceptable time for the Antichrist vs 144,000 Suffering Warrior Preachers‘ that the 144,000 will be commissioned with authority and power while still in their mortal flesh. This is because the144,000 are called servants and we are told about the suffering servant in Isaiah 42 etc. Yes Yeshua is that suffering servant but so are those that follow Him. And if we are to reign with Him we must also suffer with him. Also Yeshua sent out his disciples as sheep amongst wolves in Matthew 10 and Luke 10. These are prophetic scriptures as explained in the previous article quoted above. Again I would strongly recommend my readers to read this article as the time is directly upon us I believe. The 144,000 may be commissioned now and endued with power but be sealed after the completion of their Holy Spirit empowered mortal mission.

So to recap I believe we have already seen the seals opening since September 20, one per year but this September, the black Horse is going to start riding and all the other horsemen will be riding with him. We are being jolted into the ‘beginning of sorrows‘ that Yeshua warned us of. We must not lose heart at this time because the Lord is about to make a move on the enemy also. He is about to commission the 144,000 to preach the prophetic word, the Kingdom of God is coming physically to the earth very soon and the process of the 2nd exodus will begin. We are about to be invaded. I don’t think the 144,000 are sealed now, but they are endued with authority to preach his Word, drive out demons, heal and do miracles etc. They must be faithful servants and not bury their talent. They are about to be tested with their first assignment, which is to begin the preparation of the barley harvest, help get the remnant of Israel and Judah in order and preach to the gentiles too. His Spirit will be moving with His remnant.

We must take to heart that Yeshua is in control of the destruction of our nations. It is His judgement. We just need to ask Him personally, what He would have us do. The people that know their God shall be strong and get the job done, Daniel 11:32.

Pray, Fast & Seek the Lord while He may be found.

Love in Yeshua HaMashiach,

Rory

Introduction

This is another article about the 144,000. It describes their dual suffering preacher and warrior knight nature over the course of the ‘birthpangs‘ of Matthew 24, the time I suspect we may be immediately heading into, that is, by the seventh Hebrew month, Tishrei, in September.

What is the purpose of the 144,000? They appear in Revelation seemingly out of nowhere. Are they alluded to in the Old Testament? What does the bible say concerning them that folks are not aware of? How do they come on the scene? Are they sent forth like the disciples preaching with ‘signs and wonders‘ as end time apostles? Where is that in the Word of God? Are we told when they receive their call of duty? How do things develop? Do they suffer? Where does the rapture fit in with the 144,000 and the coming of the Kingdom of God? Are they commissioned like soldiers for supernatural physical warfare? Do they confront the forces of the Antichrist? What are the results of their presence here upon the earth? And what effect do they have upon the Church and the remnant of Israel during the 2nd Exodus?

I present an idea and apply scriptural evidence concerning the 144,000 that I have not heard spoken of. That idea is that the 144,000 are anointed and filled with the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) and commissioned to preach the ‘Gospel of the Kingdom‘ before they are raised in glory, that is, while they are still in this mortal flesh. I present scriptural evidence that they will be anointed while still mortal and so will suffer persecution just like everybody else, in fact more so. And hence this would not be a popular scenario to contemplate, even though it could in fact be true! But it will be shown that they increase in their Holy Spirit empowered giftings, abilities and miracles over the course of their short ministry. In a sense they are like Nazarites, chosen from the womb for a very specific task, that is, raising the tribes of Jacob before the 2nd exodus and rescuing Zion as the birthpangs come on strong. They will also to be a ‘light to the Gentiles‘.

From scripture it appears that their anointing transitions from Joseph to David, from Suffering Servant to Warrior King while still mortal! As Satan’s forces push harder and harder against the people of God, their Holy Spirit giftings move from just gospel related signs and wonders, deliverance, healing and miracles and onto actual Holy Spirit empowered warfare like Samson and David. In the midst of the most intense and insane peril, fighting for the remnant Church of Zion, like angels of light, they are suddenly raised in Glory (during the Omer count period, most likely on Pentecost). This is the most painful part of the birthpains that lead to the birth of the Kingdom and the rapture of the 144,000. They confront the very forces of the Dragon, and despite the desperate peril, no weapon formed against them prospers. They are raptured at the fall of Satan and his Host. Having been tested as suffering servants and soldier/judges they return as Warrior Knights to destroy the works of Satan and his seed and help continue to establish the Kingdom as the 2nd exodus commences at the sixth seal!

Preaching and the Role of Suffering

Before Joseph was Lord over His brethren, he suffered. Before David reigned as King he was hunted by King Saul (David grew in strength and power from this). The bible tells us…

If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

II Timothy 2:12

Before Yeshua comes as a Conquering King, He came as a Suffering Servant. We are told that the 144,000 are the Lord’s ‘Servants‘, Revelation 7:3. Will it be any different for them? Is there a degree of suffering that they must endure as the Lord’s 144,000 Servants? Will they be sent like the 12 disciples in Matthew 10 like ‘Sheep amongst Wolves‘ to Preach before they are resurrected/raptured for War as Lions? Will they be ‘Super Preachers‘ before they are ‘Super Soldiers‘?

Because we are at the end of the age when it is time for Zion to return, in a time of judgement and vengeance, their Holy Spirit giftings will not be restricted to the gospel and suffering for Messiah. They begin as suffering servants but they don’t stay that way. They will physically fight and be at war while still mortal before the end of their ministry as I will briefly explain from the Psalms. Their rapture concludes their ministry and initiates their return with our Lord for war and the escape of Zion in Revelation 12.

They minister in the time of upheaval, shaking called the ‘birthpangs‘ spoken of by our Lord Yeshua in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21, which correspond to the first 5 seals of Revelation 6. I suspect that this commissioning is on Yom Kippur. This may even begin this year in September for example. This is the horsemen of the Apocalypse, the initial persecution in Revelation 6. This is the “time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved“, Jeremiah 30:7. There may be a progression of the Spirit’s power that comes to them as the enemy presses in harder and harder against God’s people. Their ministry may be like Yeshua’s in the sense that it receives increasing persecution as time progresses leading to a climax. They will be raised in glory by the sixth seal which I believe will be the following Passover to Pentecost time frame during the Omer Count (most likely on Pentecost). This would be about the time that the woman of Revelation 12 makes her escape.

If so then will their ministry may begin in a similar way to Yeshua’s and the Apostles? Will ‘signs & wonders‘ be performed like the Apostles in the book of Acts and Moses performed in Egypt? The first exodus was initiated with ‘signs & wonders‘, Exodus 7:3. The Lord God of Israel used a man named Moses to bring forth his people out of Egypt. Just as He used Moses will the 144,000 be commissioned by the Holy Spirit while still in their current mortal flesh as Suffering Servants to preach the ‘gospel of the Kingdom‘ and ‘raise up the tribes of Israel‘ before the 2nd Exodus. Will the 144,000 be raised and glorified for warfare at the exodus? So does preaching precede warfare and does the commissioning of the 144,000 for preaching come on Yom Kippur in a Jubilee year (I will explain this shortly). Is this a Jubilee of judgement and mercy? Could that begin this year with earthquakes and persecution? Will the 144,000 preach as the Antichrist rises and Babylon America falls during WW3? Is the preparation of the bride for the 2nd Exodus at the door? In a time of complete censorship will the gospel be preached with power to the remnant of Jacob?

Will the 144,000 suffering servants increase in strength and power as opposition increases over time like in Psalm 118? After the 144,000 suffering servants have fulfilled their preaching and suffering will they be transformed? Will the 144,000 be raised in glory during the 50 day Omer count (between Passover and Pentecost) next year in order for supernatural warfare? Will Satan fall then? Are the birthpangs about to come on strong? Is the Kingdom coming now? Will we see the resurrection of the evil dead and the righteous at this time? Is this the last year we will ever have in our nations? I have been guessing on timing, but the sequence of events seems to me to be getting a little clearer. We are promised that these things are sealed until the time of the end, Daniel 12:9. I believe the Lord is beginning to unpack these things for us if we are listening, piece by piece.

We know that Yeshua who is also the Lord God, יהוה אלהים, the Son, orchestrates the events that brings forth the Woman (Zion) from the the nations and into the ‘Wilderness of the people‘, Ezekiel 20:35, Revelation 12:14. But how is she instructed? Does the Holy Spirit have servants that bring them understanding and assist her? Yes. And it’s right in front of us in the book of Isaiah chapters 42 and 49 and elsewhere. There is a dual fulfilment of the suffering servant. Yes it is Yeshua that purchases our redemption at His first coming. But the ‘servant‘ also describes the 144,000 that raise up the tribes of Israel preceding the 2nd exodus and Yeshua’s second coming.

Is the Lion of Judah beginning to roar? Is this time of travail and glory near at hand? These events may come very quickly! Like birthpangs, faster and faster. We are told in Daniel 12:10 that ‘the wise shall understand‘. Those lulled to sleep with a ‘pretrib rapture’ theory and a skin deep faith will have decisions to make when their world falls apart and persecution comes (indeed we all will). However we view the rapture and end times we need to be humbly walking with the Lord and hearing His Voice. Most will fall away because they love to sleep and don’t really love the Lord or the truth of His Word.

The Jubilee

- An Acceptable time for Mercy
We are familiar with the beginning of Yeshua’s ministry and his reading the torah in the Synagogue on the sabbath as recorded in Luke 4:15 onwards. He began to preach the ‘acceptable year of the Lord‘. Let’s find out what all this means for Yeshua the suffering Servant and the 144,000 suffering servants!

15 And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.
16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

Luke 4:15-21

In verse 21 when Yeshua told them that this passage in Isaiah was fulfilled in their hearing they wanted to throw Him off the nearby cliff. This is not an idle detail. It ties into quoted verse to Yom Kippur, the ‘Day of Atonement‘, when they throw the scape goat off the cliff. This also helps bind the narrative to the Jubilee year and setting captives free, which is important as we shall see. Yeshua was reading Isaiah 61 verses one and two, but he omitted the last part of verse two that proclaims ‘the day of vengeance of our God‘ as can be seen below…

1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

Isaiah 61:1-3

So vengeance was not part of His mission at that time. But at His return it will be. And we are entering that time of vengeance now I believe. But what does the term ‘acceptable year‘ mean? Well the clue is in verse 1 of Luke 4, because He proclaims ‘Liberty to the captives‘. This is Jubilee year terminology. We read about an ‘acceptable time‘ in Isaiah 49:8 with the freeing of ‘prisoners‘ in verse 9.

8 Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages;
9 That thou mayest say to the prisoners, Go forth; to them that are in darkness, Shew yourselves. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places.
10 They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.

Isaiah 49:8-10

So Yeshua’s first coming was associated with the setting free of ‘prisoners of sin‘ during an ‘acceptable year‘ which is a Jubilee and is also referred to as an ‘acceptable time‘. The Jubilees are calculated in the seventh month and the release is signified with a Jubilee trumpet on the day of atonement in Leviticus 25:9.

8 And thou shalt number seven sabbaths of years unto thee, seven times seven years; and the space of the seven sabbaths of years shall be unto thee forty and nine years.
9 Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land.
10 And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.

Leviticus 25:8-9

So the prophet Isaiah is thinking of the Jubilee when he mentions the ‘acceptable year‘ or ‘acceptable time‘ when prisoners are released. If there is any doubt then read Isaiah 58:5-6 because He then mentions an ‘acceptable day‘, and that is Yom Kippur, the ‘day of atonement‘ because he associates the ‘acceptable day‘ with fasting where we are to afflict ourselves. And it aligns with the Jubilees by letting the oppressed go free and breaking every yoke. The Jubilee trumpet is sounded on the ‘day of atonement‘.

This Jubilee time is not just about being outwardly pious, we should be caring for our fellow man and practically helping them at this time of release and freedom, which is the 50 year Jubilee.

5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD?
6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?

Isaiah 58:5-6

The 144,000 will preach deliverance to the captives of sin during the ‘acceptable year of the Lord‘. However they will also do more than that. They will help to supernaturally physically deliver believers from real physical prison camps as they are also like priests anointed for war! The enemy is about to operate the prison camps, and this is part of God’s judgement upon His people. But the same Lord will deliver them when the cry of the afflicted children of Israel and martyrs ascends to the throne, Revelation of John 6:10, 8:3-5.

- A false Jubilee?
I had suspected that the years 1917, 1967 & 2017 were Jubilee years because they are spaced 50 years apart and significant events happened concerning Jerusalem and the establishment of the Zionist State of Israel. In 1917 half of Jerusalem was captured from the Turks during World War 1 & the Balfour declaration was issued declaring a Jewish homeland. In 1967 Israel was invaded during the 6 day war, Israel won and the rest of Jerusalem was taken from the Jordanians. Finally in 2017 President Trump moved the US embassy to Jerusalem and declared it the capital of Israel, not Tel Aviv. I believe that they are significant events but they are related to the fulfilment of Zephaniah 2 where God gathers an unbelieving nation of Israel for judgement before the tribulation. That is what has happened. We are living in prophetic times.

1 Gather yourselves together, yea, gather together, O nation not desired;
2 Before the decree bring forth, before the day pass as the chaff, before the fierce anger of the LORD come upon you, before the day of the LORD’S anger come upon you.
3 Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.

Zephaniah 2:1-3

The birthpang events in Matthew 24 include Jerusalem being invaded and the ‘abomination of desolation‘ being set up. I see an ‘image of the beast‘ being set up and the nanotechnology that is in the vaccines being activated. The image of the beast may be some sort of AI golem, android perhaps? (I guess the temple would have to be built speedily). These events cant happen without Jews being in Jerusalem. Hence the current Zionist State of Israel is prophetically significant. The prophetic clock is ticking. But the years 1917, 1967 & 2017 are not Jubilees because the nation has only been partially restored and it is still in rebellion to Torah and Yeshua. The ‘State of Israel‘ has gathered itself together before judgement in accordance with the Lord’s command in Zephaniah 2. Judgement occurs on Yom Kippur, the day of Atonement and every 50 years is the Jubilee on this date. So it makes sense that these events concerning Jerusalem and the ‘State of Israel‘ occurred before a Jubilee, before judgement (and before the ‘day of Judgement‘ which is the ‘day of atonement‘) and the tribulation. It is the tribulation that occurs on judgement day, and the commissioning of the 144,000.

The Kingdom of God has not yet come to Israel as a nation. The new covenant has not come to the Zionist State but there is a small, increasingly persecuted but growing believing remnant. So the heavily vaccinated Zionist State is not truly free, the ‘State of Israel‘ gets its orders from Washington and Rome. The Zionist state is also a Jesuit State in rebellion to the Lord. But out of it’s roots will grow a remnant that will mourn for the one they pierced. Presently the Rabbinic Jews still have ‘no king but Caesar‘, John 19:15. Rabbinic Judaism is like Jacob returning to the land but still bowing down to Esau seven times, Genesis 33:3. They are using witchcraft to try and manipulate God and the Universe, to twist things the way they want it, in order to try to make the Kingdom of God come without Yeshua. Jacob hasn’t wrestled with the Lord Yeshua as a nation just yet. He hasn’t met God! And all the love from the USA has only hardened the resolve of their rebellion. All of this will come to a head when the ‘Abomination of Desolation‘ is erected! We cannot make a ‘Covenant with Death‘ and win. Both Jerusalem and Ephraim have made a deal with the Devil, via a Covenant with Death and Hell, Isaiah 28 tells us so. Death is coming soon to collect. Hell on earth will be come.

The true Jubilee is about to spring forth while many believers are still sleeping. Again, Jubilees bring judgement if we have persisted in rebellion and a lukewarm repentance. We have far less time than many believe before the Antichrist appears on the world scene. There will be a great falling away from the faith preceding this. Indeed the Antichrist is right at the door. These judgements will come like a storm. Many will fear man rather than God or trust in a false regathered ‘Israel’ controlled by the Jesuits and Zionists that hate Yeshua. Don’t get me wrong, the Lord will still fight for the Jews in Jerusalem, but only after they repent of their unbelief and hostility towards Yeshua who is God manifest in flesh.

Although we may be friendly in heart towards the Jews, yet we cannot join with the ‘State of Israel‘ that is hostile to the Torah and God’s only begotten Son. The state of Israel is fundamentally Antichrist in nature but the Lord will have compassion on a remnant. You see if a Jew lives in the USA for example and wants to immigrate to the ‘State of Israel‘ they have to deny faith in Yeshua if they are not born there because the rabbis control immigration! Nevertheless the Lord will save a portion of this nation according to Zechariah 12, when the nations come against Jerusalem, but not before they collectively mourn for the one they have pierced who is the YHVH יהוה the Son, Yeshua, ישוע. So the dates 1917, 1967 & 2017 when significant events occurred concerning Jerusalem and the ‘State of Israel‘ do not represent freedom and the Jubilee, but a sort of partial liberation more related to the seventh year ‘shmita’ cycle, Leviticus 25:4.

The Jubilee dates do matter. But the actual Jubilee could begin this year in September 2023 in the seventh Hebrew month just before we enter 2024 and will be completed in September 2024. This could complete the first 3.5 years of the tribulation if we are already in it. The Covid-19 vaccinations were the beginnings of tyranny and a transhumanist Zombie nightmare timed to the resurrection of the righteous and wicked dead in Daniel 12. Since the vaccines were rolled out the Lord has held back the bulk of the judgement in mercy, we should have woken up by now. Now judgement is about to fall hard and quickly escalate on the Jubilee. Destruction comes suddenly to those sleeping.

So to summarise, I don’t believe 1917, 1967 & 2017 are Jubilee years. They may be 7 years or more off the real Jubilee cycle, but still part of the 50 year cycle, but not the actual Jubilee year itself. And Jubilees are not just about mercy. If we are disobedient then a Jubilee can bring judgement. I believe the birthpangs and persecution of Matthew 24 are about to occur in a Jubilee year. The ‘Abomination of Desolation‘ will occur in a Jubilee, a Jubilee of judgement. And the 2nd exodus begins in the same year. So things will precede rapidly one thing after the other, bang, bang, bang and we are off to the ‘wilderness of the people‘, Ezekiel 20:35, having seen our nations suddenly invaded and destroyed and much of our people destroyed. In the garden of Eden where two trees, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and the tree of life. Two destinies in one Jubilee year. So the real Jubilee year can be a Jubilee of Judgement or Blessing depending upon our obedience. We could experience blessings in the midst of a far greater judgement. We must not fear but be faithful and be filled with faith, even in tribulation.

- An Acceptable time for Vengeance
It would seem that Yeshua began His ministry on a Jubilee year, which is also an ‘acceptable time‘ and an ‘acceptable year‘. Vengeance was not part of Yeshua’s purpose in His first coming, he came to show mercy and pay the price of our redemption by His Blood. But He did come to set the captives free. The 144,000 may also be used to announce the coming kingdom and setting free of captives. But this time is also the ‘day of vengeance‘ and so they wont omit the end of Isaiah 61:3 (vengeance). When raised in glory they will met vengeance out! And they could even begin this vengeance in their ministry time period as Samson did to the Philistines or David did to the famous Nephilim giant Goliath, while still in their Mortal flesh. This supernatural war fighting ability is alluded to in Psalm 91 and Psalm 118 (Hallal) which detail events just before the 2nd exodus. I will talk about this more in the last section titled ‘A Warrior Arises!‘.

So will the 144,000 be commissioned and begin their ministry on Yom Kippur, the ‘day of atonement‘? This is the ‘acceptable day‘ during the ‘acceptable year‘ which is a jubilee year when the Lord begins the process of regathering Israel. Are they his suffering servants to proclaim the gospel and the coming kingdom with signs & wonders? Does this ‘acceptable time‘ coincide with the 7 seals being loosed? I think so. Does it coincide with the birthpangs, apostasy and the rise of Antichrist? Does it coincide with ‘day of vengeance of our God‘? Is it this year? We shall see.

Matthew 10 – The Lord of the Harvest Commissions His 144,000

I want to step through Matthew 10 and show how the commissioning of the 12 disciples to heal the sick and cast out devils etc is actually prophecy that has not been fulfilled and pertains to the preaching of the 144,000. It was only partly fulfilled by the 12 disciples themselves.

A few verses before chapter 10 begins we are told about the ‘harvest‘.

37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

Matthew 9:37-38

These past 2000 years almost, souls have been harvested for the kingdom. Now it is getting harder to find repentance in peoples heart. But there is a remnant. We are also told that the ‘harvest is the end of the world‘ or age, Matthew 13:39. So there is an end time aspect of the harvest (more related to the remnant and the clean up of the chaff & tares etc). But the work of the harvest began during Yeshua’s ministry and the disciples were endued with power as follows…

And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.

Matthew 10:1

Importantly in verses 5 and 6 Yeshua limits their ministry only to the ‘lost sheep of the house of Israel‘. The gentiles are not to be called at this time. This phrase refers to the 10 northern tribes that went into Assyrian exile and never returned in accordance with their divorce from the Covenant in Hosea. (Yes a tiny minority trickled back, but not the bulk). It has only been through the gospel through these last 2000 years that the ‘lost sheep of the house of Israel‘ have returned into covenant through faith in Yeshua.

5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Matthew 10:5-6

The term ‘House of Israel‘ while being used to refer to the Jews of their day ultimately refers to the 10 northern tribes after the Kingdom split or to a future reunited Kingdom of Judah and Israel. The offer of the ‘Kingdom of heaven‘ is demonstrated and attested with power over sickness, death and the demonic realm as follows.

7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.

Matthew 10:7-8

The ‘Kingdom of heaven‘ is being offered to the Jews living in the land at that time. Some accept the offer. But many do not, the leaders certainly reject it. It is a generation like Sodom & Gomorrha. So too is the final end time generation before Yeshua’s second coming, Revelation 11:8. And so what was spoken then applies then.

Just as the 12 disciples were hosted by believing families while they ministered so to shall it be for the 144,000.

14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.

Matthew 10:14-15

Just as the 12 disciples were sent into that ‘Sodom and Gomorrha‘ generation so shall the 144,000 suffering servants be sent to the final end times generation. They will experience peril but they are to be harmless as doves. They are suffering servants as Isaiah details (we will look at his prophecies shortly).

16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;
18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.

Matthew 10:15-18

Yeshua says that they shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake. Again this meshes with the time period of persecution in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21. Yeshua didn’t say that the 144,000 would be exempt this time of peril. He talked elsewhere in the gospels of His servants being persecuted and even killed. Anyway Luke 21 talks about the same persecution as in Matthew 10.

But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake.

Luke 21:12

This preaching to governors and kings is not just a message of ‘come to Jesus and He will give you peace‘, but rather Yeshua is coming and He will cut you in pieces if you don’t repent! We are in a time of vengeance. An Antichrist church and culture will not like that, they will label it ‘hate speech‘. This is the final call before total destruction. This is not a popularity contest. So the 144,000 will have their metal tested in these trying times, they will be hated by most and loved by a minority. There may not be so many who want the job since so much suffering will be involved to be part of the 144,000 servants of the Lord. To me this makes a lot of sense. It isn’t nice but makes sense. It’s best to test people out before you entrust them with real power. The prophet Jeremiah suffered at the hands of his rebellious people, but the Lord was still with Him. He also went to prison, but the Lord preserved him. And what Jeremiah said came to pass. In Hebrews we are told about the heroes of faith in chapter 11 who endured much. And sometimes we have to resist sin at the expense of our own lives according to Hebrews 12. I’m not here to sugar coat it. Yeshua goes on to say the following…

22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake:
but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.

Matthew 10:22-23

Did Yeshua come? No, He hadn’t even died on the cross at this stage. This is obviously referring to His second coming. The ‘cities of Israel‘, don’t just refer to the cities in the land of Israel in Yeshua’s day, but the cities where the Israelites live today including the modern Babylons we call home. It could be Dallas, Texas or Brisbane, Australia for example or even Jerusalem or Tel Aviv. The ‘cities of Israel‘ are not just cities where Jews (‘House of Judah‘) live but also the 10 lost tribes of the ‘House of Israel‘, and most of them are in the ‘North Country called the USA. Yeshua won’t return until these modern day cities are preached to by the modern day 144,000 that He is about to commission. They wont be liked by the false pastors and their lukewarm flocks. Yeshua returns for the remnant of Israel at the 6th seal as his wrath begins to be poured out. It is sometime during the events leading to Yeshua’s return then that the 144,000 will be raised in glory. I think it will be during the Omer count (actually on Pentecost).

Suffering & a Better Resurrection?

In case you think that there is no other backing for the suffering of the 144,000 for the gospel before they are raised in glory, I want to restate some basic principles from the word of God.

We are told concerning suffering the following…

If we suffer, we shall also reign with him:
if we deny him, he also will deny us:

II Timothy 2:12

Paul the Apostle linked resurrection power with suffering. Thankfully we can have fellowship with Yeshua through suffering.

10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.

Philippians 3:10-11

What did Paul know that we don’t? We are all going to be raised from the dead at some stage if we die. So why seek the resurrection? Unless of course it is a better resurrection as the heroes of faith in Hebrews hoped for.

Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:

Hebrews 11:35

Or as we say “no guts, no glory“! So why should it be any different for the 144,000, surely they too would suffer first before glory? Are they better than our Lord Yeshua who suffered first?

Isaiah & 144,000 Suffering Servants?

Isaiah talks about the suffering servant a lot. Of course the ultimate fulfilment of the suffering servant is Yeshua himself who suffered and died for us and bore our sin on the cross. It’s only His blood that saves any of us. However he told us to likewise take up our cross and follow Him if we are to be His disciples. Self denial is a central factor in being a disciple. No self denial, no discipleship. It is in our own self interest that we should deny ourselves. We may save ourselves some needless trials if we would humble our souls with fasting and seek the face of the Lord. So suffering is part of being a servant, but there is fellowship with the Lord in it through the Holy Spirit. Yeshua was filled with the oil of joy, the Holy Spirit, at the beginning of His ministry.

1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles.
2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.
4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.

Isaiah 42:1-4

Notice that it is not meaningless suffering, but that something is accomplished, ‘judgement is set in the earth‘. And ‘the islands shall wait for his law‘. It is encouraging when we see something achieved for all our blood, sweat and tears. It’s not for nothing, it’s not a morbid hopeless suffering, there is purpose in it, ‘judgement is set in the earth‘ and ‘the islands shall wait for his law‘. We see this motif of ‘isles‘ repeated in Isaiah 49.

1 Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name.
2 And he hath made my mouth like a sharp sword; in the shadow of his hand hath he hid me, and made me a polished shaft; in his quiver hath he hid me;
3 And said unto me, Thou art my servant, O Israel, in whom I will be glorified.

Isaiah 49:1-3

The 144,000 were called from the womb and their witness will be like ‘sharp sword‘ and the bad guys and religious hypocrites will hate them. But those that love the truth will hear them. They are hidden in the Lord’s hand as a ‘polished shaft‘ in his ‘quiver‘. We are told Psalm 127 that sons are like ‘arrows in a mans quiver‘. They will ‘speak with the enemy at the gate‘.

3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.

Psalms 127:3-5

Before the 144,000 ‘Arrows‘ are shot forth as warriors they shall preach. They shall ‘speak with the enemies in the gate‘. This preaching of the 144,000 is the beginning of the birthpangs. Their warrior nature will come to the fore as we near the end of the birthpangs which will be really intense leading to the birth of the manchild which is the rapture of the 144,000 Warriors.

So Psalm 127 is all about the 144,000. They suffer like Joseph but their anointing is Davidic and they transition from suffering servants to warriors as the birth pangs increase. They suffer with Zion until they are transformed and raptured.

Now Israel is called ‘my servant‘ by our precious Lord who is our Holy God and King. Let’s read another passage about the servant in Isaiah 49:4-6 and we shall see what their purpose is, it’s about raising up the tribes of Israel. Yes it applies to Yeshua in His first coming but also to His servants before His second coming. Sometimes we may feel that our work has been for nothing, but good things take time.

4 Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the LORD, and my work with my God.
5 And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength.
6 And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.

Isaiah 49:4-6

So the Lord’s servant feels that they ‘have laboured in vain‘ and put so much effort into something that seems to have gone nowhere, but they know that God has everything under control. The entire purpose of the Lord’s servant is to bring ‘Jacob back again‘ to himself, he was ‘formed in the womb‘ for this very purpose. The servant raises up the ‘tribes of Jacob‘.

On another level all of Israel is His Servant. But not when they are walking in disobedience. So it requires those that are walking with the Lord to get the rest moving in the right direction. So how can Israel raise up Jacob unless the servant is a subset of Israel, i.e. an individual, or a group of individuals. Yeshua is THE Servant, and He has his disciples and 144,000 that are also His servants. Now Yeshua has paid for the wedding and he will send his servants to invite the guests, Matthew 22:10. And so the 144,000 servants may also suffer in their efforts to invite the guests and raise up the tribes of Israel. But it’s not a hopeless suffering. The job gets done.

Verse 4 says “Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the LORD, and my work with my God.”. Yeshua spent time teaching his disciples but when He was arrested they all forsook Him. He could have felt like it was a waste of time. Perhaps the 144,000 suffering servants will experience a time like this. In any case they will ‘raise up the tribes of Jacob‘ and prepare them just before their regathering. And this will be under increasing opposition that will come to supernatural warfare before they are raptured in the travail as the manchild of Revelation 12, the ones that rule with a ‘rod of iron‘ under Yeshua.

So while the 144,000 are preaching and getting things in order, Israel is still amongst the nations, she is not regathered. They will be preaching in the USA and elsewhere, wherever the descendants of Israel & Judah exist. It is only after the 144,000 are raised in glory that she makes her escape from the Dragon to the wilderness. So while the 144,000 are still mortal but supernaturally empowered they are preaching the ‘gospel of the Kingdom‘ and preparing the bride for her exit to the ‘wilderness of the peoples‘.

Luke 10 – 70 Disciples for 70 Nations

God loves the Gentiles and has a purpose for the believers amongst them. Remember in Isaiah 49:6 we read...

And he said, It is a light thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved of Israel: I will also give thee for a light to the Gentiles, that thou mayest be my salvation unto the end of the earth.

Isaiah 49:6

Yeshua began this work and the 144,000 servants will complete it.

In Luke 10 Yeshua commissions the 70 disciples to work similar wonders as the 12 disciples in Matthew 10. However there is no injunction not to go to the gentiles because God has a plan for believing gentiles. In Luke 10 Yeshua sends out the 70 disciples in similar fashion as he did with the 12 disciples in Matthew 10. However there are some differences. The 70 disciples were not prohibited from going to the gentiles. The gentiles are not second class citizens of the Kingdom. They are fellow heirs. They were also chosen before the foundation of the world. It’s just that the Lord goes to the nearest of kin before he goes to those further out, just like we might initially pray for our friends and family’s salvation more than those outside.

The number 70 is both related to Israel and to the nations. Because there are 70 nations listed in Genesis 10 and there were 70 souls from the 12 tribes of Israel that came into Egypt.

Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons <70>;
and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.

Deuteronomy 10:22

The verse above alludes to the promise made to Abraham’s seed and hints at it’s fulfilment when the manchild rises and the stars fall (wicked angels) at the sixth seal. Stars go down and new Stars arise.

In Luke 10 the 70 disciples are very encouraged with the results of their mission as follows…

And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.

Luke 10:17

The Lord replies with the following words which are clearly prophetic…

And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.

Luke 10:18

Because Matthew 10 is actually prophecy I believe that this ties the narrative into the prophetic future with the fall of Satan. This is an allusion to Revelation 12. And it is then that he gives them more power! It is prophetic for the 144,000 and Zion receiving greater supernatural ability to overcome a supernatural invasion of evil.

Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Luke 10:19

This will be when the stars fall. I believe this begins on the 17th day of the 2nd month between Passover and Pentecost. This is when the flood came in Noahs day. We are told that when the enemy comes in like a flood that the Lord will raise up a standard against it. This would appear to be the transition of the 144,000 into physical warfare. They are no longer just casting out devils they are trampling on ‘serpents and scorpions‘. They will need to because the fallen angels are coming to earth and they are enraged like their master Satan because they only have a short time. They are out to kill the 144,000 and the woman of Revelation which is the church Zion. The suffering servants are becoming warriors. This also ties into Psalm 121, Psalm 118 and Psalm 58 where the wicked are likened to animals with teeth that are coming against the righteous. And the righteous are destroying them. So nothing in the gospels is there without a purpose including what we have just read in Luke 10.

2 Groups of 144,000?

I have mentioned this suspicion of mine in other articles

- Barley & Wheat
I suspect that there are 2 lots of 144,000 related to the biblical feasts and the harvest cycle. One group of 144,000 is related to the barley harvest (Revelation 7) and the other related to wheat (Revelation 14). The sons of Israel are to appear before the Lord 3 times in a year, at the ‘Chag’ of Unleavened Bread, Pentecost and Tabernacles, Deuteronomy 16:16. These are 3 sets of firstfruits festivals for barley, wheat and summer fruit. Representing 3 separate resurrections. My guess is that the first two are for the two groups of 144,000 and the last Chag gathering is for the rapture of the ‘church’, those that remain at His Coming, 1 Cor 15:23. We will soon know if this is the case.

- 12 verses 70 Disciples
In the gospels I find support for this idea of two groups of 144,000. The sending forth of the 12 disciples in Matthew 10 and the sending of the 70 disciples in Luke 10 may be prophetic of two different groups of 144,000. Time will tell.

Perhaps the 12 disciples being sent in Matthew 10 is related to the first group of 144,000 (barley) while the 70 sent in Luke 10 are related to the last 144,000 (wheat). We shall see. I have spoken of this in other articles and mention it in passing here. The Barley harvest starts from the first month, Passover while the wheat harvest starts in the third month during Pentecost. Pentecost is the 4th feast related to the 2 visions of Joseph’s ascendancy above his brethren. The harvest vision and the sun moon and stars vision are one and link in with the biblical harvest calendar and feasts. The 4th Church rule with a ‘rod of Iron‘ like Yeshua, but under Him of course. This is the ‘manchild‘, the 144,000 Sons of Zion. Joseph’s vision about ruling over his brethren is linked to the 4th feast, Pentecost, the harvest of wheat, and the 4th church, Thyatira. The sun moon and 11 stars bowed down to him, Genesis 37:9. Joseph was like a Nazarite and seperate (nazir) from his brethren, Deuteronomy 33:16. Pentecost is about the birth of the manchild which is like a company of Nazarites, the birth is the rapture of those very 144,000.

- Golden Calf Worshipping Ephraim & Dan
If the two chapters in Revelation 7 and 14 represent two different groups of 144,000 then what tribes are the second group from? We know that the first group of 144,000 in Revelation 7 is from every tribe except Ephraim & Dan because the tribes are listed. Could it be that the second group of 144,000 in Revelation 14 are only from from Ephraim & Dan? One of the things that links these two tribes is that these two tribes had a golden calf in their territory, II Kings 10:29 (Bethel is in Ephraim’s territory, Judges 4:5)! How could such idolatrous tribes be represented? Unless a remnant of them overcame their idolatrous tendencies! This is conjecture of my own, I do not as yet have enough evidence to nail it for sure but I share some of the suspicions I have. Again we shall all know soon enough as those days are immediately upon us I believe.

Joseph was Ox like and his son Ephraim carries blessings but also calf kissing Baal worship. Ephraim was born in Egypt and became an idolatrous tribe. Another tribe also had golden calf worship and that was Dan. Is there any hope that a remnant of them will overcome? Those that don’t will be destroyed in the judgements that are coming during the tribulation that is about to begin in earnest.

Many people only associate the negative for Dan and for good reason as we can see from their history and Jacob’s prophetic blessing of Dan.

16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.
18 I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD.

Genesis 49:16-18

This is will come to pass in the last days, during the tribulation, for good and for evil. The wicked in Dan will bite the good guys and the righteous in Dan will bite the bad guys and then Yeshua will come. So if you are from Dan, fear not, but die to self and overcome those coiling serpents of lust, anger and idolatry and you shall judge in a good way, like Samson did, but without the fall to a woman named Delilah. Those from Ephraim should not be too quick to point the finger at Dan, since both are prone to the same golden calf idolatry. Dan conspired against Joseph that is true, but you must also understand that all the brothers repented for what they did to their brother Joseph, including Dan. Dan has to overcome his tendency to lust, anger and vengeance that are connected to his strong penchant for idolatry as can be seen in Judges 18, and earlier with Samson.

The tribe of Dan still has a tribal allotment in the kingdom according to Ezekiel 48:1-2 . So they are not destroyed as a tribe, even if they are not mentioned in the list in Revelation 7. I am wondering if Dan will be amongst the 144,000 raised at Pentecost, because a golden calf was in Ephraim and Dan! That may seem a strange thing to say. But there is a link between Ephraim and Dan. There is something good in Dan as well as something wicked. Dan will judge his brethren, this could be in a bad way but also in a good way. Perhaps a remnant of Dan will overcome all the idolatry in their blood even as a childlike remnant of Ephraim will. Samson the Nazarite was from Dan but he had a problem with lust. This must be overcome in the last days. Yeshua the firstborn son of God fittingly lived in Nazarith. The Nazarite is a picture of the 144,000 sons of God, born not by the will of man, but of God.

- 144,000 Virgin Children/Eunuchs?
If there are two groups of 144,000, one related to barley and the other related to wheat then the 144,000 raised on Pentecost are related to Joseph’s son Ephraim which is not listed in the Revelation 7 group but may be present in the Revelation 14 group. The ones in Revelation 14 are specifically called virgins. This can mean that they are virgins ‘spiritually’, but it could also be that they are virgins physically, especially if they are younger than the first group in Revelation 7. If the ones in Revelation 7 are a different group then they may not have the same quality, just as barley is inferior to wheat, they may not be virgins physically, though still virgins spiritually. I suspect that the group mentioned in Revelation 14 are childlike and cherubic in nature, and that they are more innocent and can be trusted with judgement. They are the ‘finest of wheat‘. I also think of the blessing of Josephs two sons and Yeshua blessing the children as I will explain. And perhaps the second group, are either children or childlike. Of course this all hinges on the supposition that Revelation 7 & 14 are two separate groups of 144,000. When you number your men it is for war, so saying that the children are going out to fight sounds strange! But I cant help think that there is a link to Yeshua’s words concerning children and who the highest firstborn is.

12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother’s womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
13 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them.
14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 19:12-14

Notice how often the word ‘eunuch‘ is mentioned and it’s connection to the ‘Kingdom of heaven‘ and it’s association with the ‘little children‘ that were ‘brought unto him‘.

Who are the most victimised by Satanists? Is it not the babies and little children? The Lord can make a fool of Satan and his host. God can take even a baby, and use them to smite his enemies. There isn’t a big enough millstone for those that would hurt the Lord’s ‘little children‘.

So the manchild of Revelation could be composed of adults from the 144,000 mentioned in Revelation 7 and children or child like virgins or eunuchs for the Kingdom of heaven in Revelation 14. Again, let’s wait and see. We do know that Satan is after the children in particular, the seed of the woman.

- David’s 288,000
There is more support for two groups of 144,000. According to 1 Chronicles 27 David had 12 courses of 24,000 warriors serving him every month of the year which equals 288,000 which is twice 144,000. So we shall soon find out if this is the case as I believe they will soon be activated.

A time of shaking comes before birth

The book of Haggai talks about the Lord shaking the heavens and the earth, establishing His house after overthrowing the horse and their riders. The ‘24th day‘ of different months is mentioned conspicuously and then this day is again mentioned in the first chapter of the following book of Zachariah and then once in Daniel. I have spoken about this extensively before. But Perhaps this gives us a time-frame of the events that begins in the 6th Hebrew month, Elul, leading to a period of shaking. This could be likened to the birthpangs of the pregnancy of the ‘Kingdom of God‘. The pregnancy will lead to the birth of the Manchild which is the 144,000 after their faithful service of preaching the ‘gospel of the Kingdom’.

Haggai 1:15 24th day 6th month Build Temple, Shake Heaven & Earth & Sea
Haggai 2:10 24th day 9th month Overthrow Horse & their Riders
Haggai 2:18 24th day 9th month Priests, Shake Heaven & Earth
Haggai 2:20 24th day “ month Foundation Laid, Blessing from this Day forth
Zechariah 1:7 24th day 11th month Red – Horse Earth at Peace
Daniel 10:4 24th day 1st month Angel comes to give Daniel end time understanding

I see two temples being established at this time. One above, one below. The one above is the heavenly mt Zion, Jerusalem which is free while the one below, the earthly Zion, which is in bondage with her children like Hagar, Galatians 4:25, and is occupied by the Antichrist. As Antichrist rises, so does the heavenly Zion, the ‘Church of the firstborn‘, through persecution and trials of faith including martyrdom for some, Hebrews 12.

To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,

Hebrews 12:23

How are ‘spirits of just men made perfect‘? Yeshua was made perfect through suffering, and he is able to make us perfect in our sufferings, I Peter 5:10. The time frame may be short but the intensity will be strong. Like the rest of the remnant Church which is Zion, the 144,000 are perfected through their suffering and trials of faith, but they are also growing in strength and power as we all do through trials of faith. Remember, “If we suffer with Him we shall also reign with Him”, II Timothy 2:12. The 144,000 will become superhuman when the time calls for it. This power will be supernatural in the extreme in the days when Satan falls. So no matter what the enemy does, the Kingdom of God is coming. Antichrist like Pharaoh of old will meet his doom. Because of sin Jacob shall be trimmed to the bone but the remnant of Zion shall be saved like Israel of old after the first exodus.

A diagram of the mentions of the 24th day in Haggai, Zechariah and Daniel that are related to the shaking of the heavens and earth, the birthpangs of the kingdom including world war with the horse and the rider thrown into the sea.

If the 144,000 are still mortal is there not Potential to fall?

Yeshua was a spotless Lamb without sin when he ministered in the flesh. However we are fallen. If the 144,000 will be ministering while in their mortal flesh, they can still sin and fall short of the glory of God. Now that reminds me of a principle in a verse in Daniel 11.

And some of them of understanding shall fall, to try them, and to purge, and to make them white, even to the time of the end: because it is yet for a time appointed.

Daniel 11:35

Just because we have Holy Spirit giftings and so forth, doesn’t mean that we are incapable of falling. And so while we are in this flesh we are still very vulnerable.

So we shall see how the 144,000 are established, if mortal or if raised. If mortal for their initial ministry then they are still capable of falling into sin. Thankfully if any falter the Lord is able to purge and make white.

If the 144,000 are commissioned in their mortal flesh initially to preach and then later becoming warriors, then they are in a sort of apprenticeship, they are on probation to become battle hardened elite soldiers of light. If they fall or falter they will learn and grow and be purged. The 12 disciples were far from perfect, but they all grew up to become apostles.

Preaching before Fleeing the North Country

So let me just give a quick overview of how things could possibly develop with some extra details.

It has been 3.5 years since the Wuhan scam began to be played out and we have tiptoed into the beginnings of full blown tyranny. I am surprised the Lord has given us so much time before the birthpangs come upon our world full force. He has held back His anger. But it is about to sweep the earth in righteousness.

‘Judgement Day‘ is Yom Kippur, the tenth day of the seventh month, which is Monday the 25th of September 2023. Is this the year that the 144,000 are commissioned on Yom Kippur? I have been wrong on timing before, nevertheless I am asking are the 144,000 about to be commissioned for preaching and will we see the Antichrist arise shortly? And if so, is the fall of Satan next May on the 17th of the second Hebrew month? If it is then things will quickly escalate shortly as we approach Yom Kippur in late September 2023. The 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse and the massive persecution may begin to break forth then, this will be a Jubilee of judgement. Wave goodbye to the last vestiges of internet freedom and this website if this happens. Censorship will begin in earnest. But God will raise up a standard against the darkness by His Spirit for those that will hear the call.

So just to underline what I am saying, if this is the year it all breaks forth then during this Yom Kippur which is a ‘Judgement Day‘ we may see the commissioning of the 144,000 to assist in the Holy Spirit revival of the remnant of Jacob amidst the judgement of our nations and a lukewarm Laodicean church. So just like Moses the Servant of the Lord, these 144,000 are the Lord’s Servants that will raise up the remnant of the 12 tribes of Israel amongst the nations, Isaiah 49:6. This should occur during a period of noticeably growing wars, famines, pestilences and also be accompanied by increasing earthquakes as the earth prepares for the birth of the sleeping dead. So the birth of Zion is at the same time as the wicked dead are released from Hell who are on a temporary demonic rampage! God at this time, the time of the 2nd exodus, will be separating his remnant Israelite Bride, Zion, from the wicked nations.

As the enemy comes in power like a flood so does the Lord, Isaiah 59:19. Nevertheless the wicked will be used as instruments of judgement upon the Lord’s rebellious people. We have seen that according to Isaiah the 144,000 Suffering Servants begin their preaching ministry with ‘Signs and Wonders‘ on Yom Kippur, the ‘day of Atonement‘ on a Jubilee year. The enemy will no doubt have ‘lying signs & wonders‘ too. There are plenty of shills, UFO cults and other deceived New Age mystics out there, even New Ager’s who talk about being the 144,000! So it’s just like Aaron rod that became a serpent verses Pharaoh’s magicians and their serpents. Both sides performing miracles, but who do you believe? So this is the fearful and chaotic world we may soon find ourselves in, but should not fear but instead we should be looking to Yeshua. We may not want it this way, we may not want to think about it. But it is better to be prepared in our hearts rather than to live a lie in ‘lala-land’ when the flood comes.

So this Yom Kippur could be a Jubilee of severe judgement for the majority and a Jubilee mercy for a very small remnant at the same time. So is this the year it springs forth or is it yet another year away? Are we on the cusp of severe judgement now? Our nations are already being judged. But according to scripture it shall come like a ‘whirlwind‘ upon the heads of the wicked and a sleeping world. The Lord God of Israel, the maker of heaven and earth is in control not Satan. Satan works under Yeshua as the sifter. He accuses still and is on the cusp of being cast out of heaven. Babylon America will burn and so will the other little whore houses like Australia. Get ready to leave. When Passover comes next year make sure your feet are shod with shoes and a staff is in your hand as we are commanded. It could be the last one you have in your nation or upon earth. If this is the year the 144,000 are commissioned then the world will already begin shaking by Passover. The steady decline of our nations greatly accelerates.

It could be that the Lord visits the 144,000 Servants in a similar way that He visited Saul on the way to Damascus. But with even a greater Holy Ghost unction. Of course I think they will already be believers of course. But there was a sudden change and empowerment but Saul who was known as Paul the Apostle was still mortal. I suspect that the Hallel Psalms (113 to 118) are related to the commissioning of the Lords 144,000 servants who experience incredible opposition but overcome and in their steadfastness, despite suffering, get the remnant Church, which is Zion, ready for her evacuation from Babylon North America and elsewhere.

A Warrior Arises!

In Revelation 12 which dovetails with Isaiah 66 and Daniel 12, the woman, Zion, is not raptured. She has faith in Yeshua but she is not rapture ready. However her son is raptured, the manchild which is the 144,000, are ready for rapture and are taken heavenward. Zion will be raised later after the 2nd exodus, that is, after her fleeing to the wilderness on ‘eagles wings‘. The 144,000 go up to the heavenly mt Zion to be presented to the Lord as firstfruits of the resurrection. I believe this is at Pentecost, about 3 weeks (21 days) after the stars begin to fall on the 17th of the second month. I suspect Satan himself falls on Pentecost, that is after some of his fallen angels have already arrived on earth.

Remember that well before the 144,000 ascend on Pentecost the Lord commissions his still mortal 144,000 Servant Sons to begin the raising up (through preaching to) the remnant tribes of Jacob, which are Zion, the church of the firstborn (Hebrews 12). This preaching occurs as our nations collapse into tyranny, anarchy and invasion. Much destruction of Jacob is occurring, he is being made thin, Isaiah 17:4, people are dying due to sin for the most part. This is not just in the USA but wherever the 10 lost tribes of Israel (House of Israel) and the Jews (House of Judah) dwell including Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Britain etc.

In the bible we read that the last days 2nd exodus occurs from the ‘North Country‘. This is where the majority of the 10 lost tribes and the Jews outside the land of Israel dwell. Check out Jeremiah 6:22, 10:22, 23:8, 31:8. There is a North country by the Euphrates river, the area of Babylon and Assyria in Iraq. But there is also be a ‘modern day North Country‘ which is also a reinvented land of the Chaldeans, a reinvented Babylon, that is, the USA and her affiliated nations like Australia etc are really part of the same system. Babylon USA has poisoned herself, her friends and the rest of the world through her sorcery (Pharmakia, Transhumanist DNA changing Viral Zombie Vaccines). The once virtuous USA, ‘the land of the free‘, has become a whorish ‘Babylonian hell-hole‘ stronghold of demons. And so have the other whore nations who followed her.

The flight of the woman of Revelation 12 from the Dragon is thus from the ‘North Country‘ which appears to be a sort of modern day Babylon, that is, Babylon America. So the woman, Zion, flees North America and wherever else the tribes of Israel reside. She isn’t raptured, she runs! This occurs at the same time as the Arch Angel Michael is fighting Satan in heaven. This connects with Daniel 12’s account of Michael fighting for the people of Israel.

At this same time there is a resurrection of the dead according to Daniel 12:1-3. Revelation 12 tells us that this is when the stars fall from heaven, that is, when Michael is fighting. According to Daniel 12 the wicked dead are raised, verse 2 and the righteous also, verse 3. (This is not to be confused with the Great White throne judgement.) The ‘Zombie Apocalypse‘ would seem to occur then. The wicked dead that are raised are the water spewed from the dragons mouth. They will be demon possessed and will be trying to catch the woman, Zion as she flees. The fallen angels will be on the earth overseeing and directing this. God’s angels will be assisting the woman as she flees, Psalm 91 (the Plague/Zombie Apocalypse Psalm).

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

Psalms 91:11

Psalm 91 begins with God’s people hiding under the shadow of his wings and they transition to going on the offensive, just like Yeshua said to the 70 disciples when he told them that he beheld Satan fall as lightning. This is a coded message to us giving us the timeframe for when they were to trample on serpents and scorpions, that is, when Satan is cast out of heaven for the final time which is depicted in Revelation 12.

18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Luke 10:18-19

Yeshua had already given the disciples power to drive out demons. Trampling on serpents and scorpions is not driving demons out. It is military warfare against Satan’s demon possessed people and Nephilim and fallen angels etc. The whole lot! And it dovetails with Psalm 91:13. This is when the 144,000 powers come on super strong. And I think all of Zion is greatly strengthened for the fight and flight to the wilderness during the resurrection of the evil dead and Zombie Apocalypse (Daniel 12).

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder:
the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

Psalms 91:13

The references to animals actually refers to people as Psalm 58 makes clear. The animals represent Demon possessed people. I suspect that this prophetic Psalm is fulfilled in total during the Zombie Apocalypse which is the water spewed forth from the Dragons mouth at the time of the resurrection of the wicked and righteous dead in Daniel 12 which equates with Revelation 12. The 15 Songs of Accent and the Hallel Psalms are really about the Bride and the Sons of Zion, the 144,000. Psalm 119 is really the sealing of God’s Law upon the foreheads of the 144,000 along with his name which is in them also. Anyway Psalm 118 gets intense, from overcoming fear and distress (tribulation) to fighting like a superhero.

They compassed me about like bees;
they are quenched as the fire of thorns:
for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them.

Psalms 118:12

Verse 12 occurs for the 144,000 towards the end of their mortal ministry just before rapture. Both Psalms start in weakness and end in strength. Imagine being surrounded by thousands of people but supernaturally enabled to fend them off alone, possibly without natural weapons while still mortal but still Holy Spirit empowered like a true superhero. So this is how the 144,000 may end up over time while still preaching in their mortal bodies before their ascension into glory with a glorified body. I imagine they will develop in their giftings and discover more abilities as they go on and the persecution thickens. This is a war after all. Meanwhile their beginning may be very humble like a dove settling on their shoulder.

The weapons that some ‘red necks’ have are just not enough for this sort of supernatural warfare. This is far bigger than just a joint Russian and Chinese invasion (the red horse of war is riding at this time). So we need the Lord’s mercy and leading during this period of panic. So keep this in mind if you are a preper and prep as the Lord directs. I think it is wise to protect your loved ones as best you can both spiritually and physically, but what is coming is far, far bigger than most people want to imagine.

It is my suspicion that the fall of Satan and his wicked angels will begin on the anniversary of the flood on the 17th of the 2nd Hebrew month. It will occur over a period of 40 days just like the deluge.

I have been wrong on details of timing but we need to be sober because the levy is going to break soon and the 2nd exodus will begin. Could the earthquakes become noticeable this September, could this be the year? So could the 144,000 be commissioned at Yom Kippur as His suffering servants before they are raised in glory for battle during the 50th day of the Omer count, on Pentecost? Look we all want to be raptured, but we may be shaken beforehand. I hope these scriptures that I have shared have shed some light on the subject. There is hope.

Love & blessings in Yeshua

The 144,000 & the 2nd Exodus to the Real Mt Sinai – Part 2 – It’s raining in the Saudi Desert

5/7/2023

0 Comments

Camels walking through the miraculously rainy Saudi desert. A hot and dry desert becomes temporary green meadows. Prophecy is beginning to be fulfilled in many ways. The land is being revived for the sons of Abraham and Israel in particular to return. WW3 is near. The destruction of Babylon USA is near. The 144,000 Firstfruits rapture is near. The 2nd Exodus is near. For the humble, Yeshua is near. One way or another we will be leaving our nations very soon. In this article I want to concentrate on some nice things, the watering, revival and blooming of the desert in Judea and Arabia in anticipation of our return.

Audio & Video

The Youtube Video and Audio is not directly from the text of this blog but contains much of the same information with video footage of what is happening to the desert as the Lord begins to bring the rain in preparation for the return of Israel & Judah during the tribulation & 2nd Exodus from Babylon America and elsewhere.

Introduction

I want to focus on some positive things amidst this time of increasing judgement and tribulation.

The world’s weather patterns are now beginning to change rapidly. We are living in prophetic days. Green places become dry and deserts become green. If it is drying up where you are then you can be sure that it is because of the wickedness of the people. Thankfully if the Lord turns off the water tap in one place He will turn it on in another. If we are faithful then we can hope in the Lord’s provision. Fear not thou worm Jacob, Isaiah 41:14, the Lord will provide. So be sure that the crazy weather is in God’s hands, and is in general a result of sin not some godless evolutionary paradigm called ‘climate change’. Our western nations have forgotten where the the blessings come from, we have forgotten our Rock and maker. God is merciful when we turn to Him. The bible is full of wonderful promises…

33 He turneth rivers into a wilderness, and the watersprings into dry ground;34 A fruitful land into barrenness, for the wickedness of them that dwell therein.
35 He turneth the wilderness into a standing water, and dry ground into watersprings.
36 And there he maketh the hungry to dwell, that they may prepare a city for habitation;

Psalms 107:33-36

Things are changing everywhere, including the middle east. If the desert is becoming green it’s in preparation for God’s people to come. But the bread basket of the middle east is in drought. In the fertile crescent in Iraq where wheat is usually grown the Euphrates river is drying up. Is this due to the wickedness of the people? Does God want the people to turn to Him? Is this the shadow of future prophecy to be fulfilled? Is it drying up in preparation for the Kings of the East?

And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates;
and the water thereof was dried up,
that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

Revelation 16:12

Meanwhile the rains are getting a little heavier in Saudi Arabia and Yemen and Oman. Is this is a taste of prophesied desert miracles yet to come? God is beginning to increase the rainfall in Saudi Arabia and elsewhere while decreasing it in other places. I believe that the Lord may be in the early stages of rolling out a green carpet in the desert for the remnant of His people.

Back in our backyard, our nations are already being judged and Satanic and demonic activity is increasing rapidly, witchcraft is taking off. Deception is everywhere. There is ‘Truth in the Movies and Lies on the News’. The media is visiting a topic it used to downplay, UFO’s. I don’t have a morbid fascination with UFO’s and ‘Aliens’ because I know the source of all of this is Satan and the forces of Hell. I know that the Nephilim are coming etc and the whole Alien disclosure deception is ramping up. But I am focused on the Lord’s faithfulness to His faithful remnant. America is dividing between the majority that want to go the way of Sodom with their New Age Socialism and the minority that want to cling to Yeshua. The wheat and tares are being divided world wide. God will bring us out of our nations very soon, some by rapture but the majority through exodus.

This article is the second in the series titled ‘The 144,000 & the 2nd Exodus to the Real Mt Sinai’. The rapture and 2nd exodus are much more closely tied to each other than most believers know or understand. Indeed most believers in Yeshua don’t understand or want to understand about the coming 2nd exodus clearly prophesied extensively throughout the Old Testament. Without a firmer grasp of the Old Testament prophecies we cannot really piece together the end times puzzle because the puzzle obviously needs all the pieces. We wont understand the events in Revelation without a good grasp of the Old Testament prophets and Torah. Not everyone in the Church will be whisked out of trouble before the Tribulation takes hold. Mental belief is not enough we must have clean hands and a pure heart, Psalms 24:4. So the birthpangs are already here and increasing rapidly. Some will be raptured as Firstfruits and many more will be left behind even though they follow Yeshua (we have to be ready when He comes as a thief and not sleeping!, Revelation 3:3). But despite the pain of being left behind it doesn't need to be a hopeless thing if we remain. There is another sort of rescue coming. There is an exodus coming for those that miss the rapture of the 144,000 but survive the destruction of our nations. This is very close now.

In this instalment we will see how the Lord will miraculously supply our needs through nature as He regathers Israel and Judah. He will bring us out of our nations after a period of the first 5 seal judgements and during a period of His wrath and salvation for us. We will come to the middle east by ship and by foot and pass through a miraculously transformed desert. The Lord God, יהוה אלהים, of Israel will soon regather his people, bringing them through a desert that begins to flow with water and is thus made green, including trees. Indeed this change in desert climate is already beginning in the middle east.

The Bible gives us many details so that we can know the location of this blooming desert. It does not just refer to the Judean desert. It also includes the the Saudi Desert in Arabia, where the real Mt Sinai is located. In this article I want to bring the scriptures to light that discuss this in detail. It’s important to for us to know where we are going because that is part of the reason the Prophet’s have told us, to comfort our hearts and to give us light and hope. The desert will turn into an oasis. Arab tribes that could have been hostile to us will be friendly and help provide for our needs. This is because the Lord Yeshua will be amongst us. It will be an openly supernatural time after devastating judgements upon our own lands and the other nations of the world including the Middle East.

There is so much that is distressing as we see the bad guys destroying our nations. But the end of our nations need not be the end of us. Jacob is going home. The end of our nations is only the beginning of the salvation of the Remnant of Israel. Are you one of them?

In a previous lengthy article entitled ‘The 144,000 & the 2nd Exodus to the Real Mt Sinai – Part 1, 2nd Exodus or Rapture?‘ I showed how the rapture of the ‘Church’ (Congregation) is in stages, with the 144,000 Firstfruits (that go first!) and then those that remain are gathered in the clouds. I showed how that between the rapture of the Firstfruits and the rapture of the main body of believers is a time of judgement and cutting down followed by the 2nd exodus.

There are copious scriptures concerning the 2nd exodus in the Bible. And it occurs as I have said before, after a time of severe judgement. The judgement is necessary as God removes the wicked of the House of Israel within the ‘North Country’ called North America. I am not going into detail here. Read Part 1 for more on this. There is also judgement on the other nations where the lost tribes of Israel currently reside, indeed this judgement has already begun.

So let’s see what the Bible has to say about our sojourn in the wilderness which includes the Saudi desert that blooms and teams with water…

The land bequeathed to Abraham & Israel

Have you ever wondered how all the tribes of Israel are going to fit into tiny Israel? Have you any idea how small it is? This land that the nations get all upset about is just a dot. The hill country of Judea and Samaria, wickedly called the ‘Westbank’ (of Jordan) is smaller still. If a Jew builds an outhouse with a new toilet seat in this area then it is headline news in Europe and the American state department jumps up and down.

The land bequeathed to Abraham is much larger than what Israel now possesses.

In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying,
Unto thy seed have I given this land,
from the river of Egypt unto the great river,
the river Euphrates:
בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא כָּרַת יְהוָה אֶת־אַבְרָם בְּרִית לֵאמֹר
לְזַרְעֲךָ נָתַתִּי אֶת־הָאָרֶץ הַזֹּאת
מִנְּהַר מִצְרַיִם עַד־הַנָּהָר הַגָּדֹל
נְהַר־פְּרָֽת׃

Genesis 15:18

The area where the current modern Jewish State of Israel occupies is just a tiny sliver of what she will later possess when Yeshua returns. Abraham was promised the land where he walked. Well he walked from Ur of the Chaldees along the Euphrates river into Syria, then down into Canaan and finally into Egypt along the Nile. The land between the river Euphrates and the Nile belongs to Abraham’s descendants and ultimately it will all belong to Israel. You can see in the following two verses that the land borders between the river of Egypt (Nile) & the Euphrates that were given to Abraham are then given to all Israel.

And the border shall fetch a compass from Azmon unto the river of Egypt, and the goings out of it shall be at the sea.

Numbers 34:5

7 Turn you, and take your journey, and go to the mount of the Amorites, and unto all the places nigh thereunto, in the plain, in the hills, and in the vale, and in the south, and by the sea side, to the land of the Canaanites, and unto Lebanon, unto the great river, the river Euphrates.
8 Behold, I have set the land before you: go in and possess the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give unto them and to their seed after them.

Deuteronomy 1:7-8

This means that all of the following lands will ultimately belong to a reunited Israel and Judah…

all of the land of the easterly part of Egypt (east of the Nile) including the Sinai,
all of Lebanon,
all of Syria,
all of Jordan,
all of the area west of the Euphrates in Iraq
all of Saudi Arabia
all of the Gulf States
all of Yemen
all of Oman

The picture below shows the area we are talking about.

This is a big area. But there is a problem. Only part of it is arable. Saudi Arabia for example has no rivers, only intermittent flood fed ‘wadis’ when the rains come. Saudi Arabia is very dry receiving between 100 to 200 mm (4 to 8 inches) of rain per year. There is not much water. The Saudi’s have foolishly wasted about 80 to 90 percent of what subterranean water they had on short term agriculture. But God will change that water problem because He is the ‘Weather Man’! He will attach the water system once the new tenants arrive. The Lord is about to seriously change the plumbing and climate of the Middle East when it is time for His Sons and Daughters to return.

This map of the middle east with the USA superimposed over it gives some idea of the scale of the future ‘Greater Israel’ between the Nile and the Euphrates Rivers. Notice also how absolutely tiny the current blue ‘State of Israel’ is!

The wilderness shall blossom

The al-Akrir flowers covered a desert area in the al-Hajra governorate in Saudi Arabia’s al-Baha, creating beautiful views after heavy rains hit the area.

The prophet Isaiah speaks extensively about the desert blooming. Isaiah was from the southern kingdom of Judah and so the desert was a familiar topic because the tribe of Judah’s inheritance included the Negev desert. Beersheba is on the edge of that desert area which is not that far south of Jerusalem by Australian or US standards.

Now the modern state of Israel has done much to improve the tiny land of Israel. They have grown fruit trees in the desert. Back in 2004 I stayed at a kibbutz in the Negev desert called ‘Revivim’ that had fruit trees that were fed brackish water from underground. However the desert is still the desert. But the Lord has His own terraforming project in mind and he gave the prophet Isaiah a glimpse of it.

For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and he will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness shall be found therein, thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.

Isaiah 51:3

The Lord is lifting the curse on the desert.

1 The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.
2 It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.

Isaiah 35:1-2

Creation is held in bondage until the sons of God are manifested. But then Creation’s captivity shall end, even as ours soon will.

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

Romans 8:19

The desert will bloom at the same time as God’s people are given dominion and the seed of the serpent is crushed under foot.

6 Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert.
7 And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes.

Isaiah 35:6-7

The reason the desert blooms is because Zion returns.

And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

Isaiah 35:10

Unlike the current state of Israel it is God that will do the planting of the forest in the desert not man. That doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing to plant trees it just means that the Lord is deeply involved in His Creation and in His people. The Lord God wants everyone to know that He is doing it and that He is the Creator and He has returned to Zion.

19 I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together:
20 That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it.

Isaiah 41:19-20

This is something the Muslim nations will learn firsthand. And then they too will be set free if they submit themselves to the God of the Bible.

Friends in Hostile Muslim Nations?

All of the Muslim nations mentioned earlier that exist between the Nile and the Euphrates harbour varying degrees of hostility towards Israel. They are hostile to the gospel message with faith in Yeshua the Messiah and Son of God. Islam is fundamentally Antichrist, it denies the Father and the Son. It denies the deity of Yeshua and His Messiahship. Mohamed is not a prophet but a liar according to the word of God.

Who is a liar
but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ?
He is antichrist,
that denieth the Father and the Son.

I John 2:22

In Islam Yeshua is just a prophet. But Yeshua said, “I and my Father are one”, John 10:30. Islam is a demonic lie and those that follow Islam are hostages and slaves to Satan. But there are many well meaning Muslims and I am sure that the Lord will have mercy on a remnant when they turn to Him. Nevertheless Islam must wage ‘Jihad’, holy war, until all is Islam. But the delusion of Islam will come to an end, it will eat itself. Sunni and Shiite will probably destroy each other. Brother against brother. It is very sad, but a remnant will find the Lord.

One day very soon a remnant of the oppressed Arab peoples will turn to the true God of Israel and His Holy Son. True submission must be to the true Creator. Yeshua the Son is the Aleph-Tav, את, and the true Creator, through Him all things were made.

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

John 1:1-5

Amongst the poorer type of Muslims you will find humble folk. From scripture I know that the Lord will save many as Yeshua begins to pour out His Wrath upon the nations. We may be surprised to find friends in these hostile nations. The Lord is merciful. The Lord is humbling the world, including Israel and the nations. The world population will have begun to be severely reduced through various Seal and Trumpet judgements. There will still be original Arab inhabitants in these countries when the 2nd exodus occurs and the prophet Isaiah says that they will help us. This may seem strange but remember that the Lord provided water for Ishmael. There will be a remnant amongst the Arab nations that turn to Yeshua. When God brings the real restoration of Israel & Judah, the humble amongst the nations know and bow before the God of Israel. The desert blooming is a sign of the nearness of the return of Yeshua. In Islam the end times are called the ‘last hour’. There are verses in the Koran and Muslim tradition (‘Hadith’) that have simply repeated what Isaiah prophesied over a thousand years earlier, that the desert will bloom. However they forgot to mention that it blooms for the return of God’s children who are believing Israel & Judah. It is my hope that not only will we, the Israel of God, be regathered back to the land of Israel, but that many Arabs that survive these end time judgements will turn to the Gospel and Yeshua and find true mercy, forgiveness and love.

Saudi Arabia has been behind a lot of terrorism in the world along with Iran. Saudi Arabia pushes Sunni Islam terrorists while Iran pushes the Shiite variety. Neither has been punished. Saudi Arabia is rich, it has become fat and drunk on oil. But she has a huge problem with water now. Yes she has many desalination plants but she has to spend 30 percent of her oil to power them and soon that will go up to 50 percent. On top of this she is running out of money as the money she gets from oil now does not cover the costs in drilling and refining it. Saudi Arabia’s oil riches are coming to nothing. So it doesn’t look good for the regime in Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia has been foolish with her God given gift of oil and subterranean water. Her day of reckoning is here. God is beginning to bring a little more rain to Saudi Arabia and the surrounding nations. But that will not solve the Saudi regimes finances. So there may come a severe humbling to Saudi Arabia. It is after this humbling that there may be many Muslims looking for the truth at th time that the lost tribes of Israel return. I am sure war will come first. Shamefully I used to hate the Muslim people, especially after 9-11, I could not even see them as human beings. All I saw was blood thirsty jihad terrorists. And yes there are Muslims like that. But there are all sorts of people in every nation. God had to humble my heart and show me their humanity. There are proud and wicked people everywhere. But there are humble and lost people everywhere too. Now I pity the Muslims more, especially the poor and downtrodden amongst them. They are human beings and need God’s love in Yeshua too. I will be very glad for their salvation or anyone for that matter.

Iraq was very anti Israel. Well we know what happened there. And it is still suffering. The governments of both Syria and Yemen were very anti Israel. Well their nations have been judged through civil war and dispersion. But that doesn’t mean that God has rejected the people there. The bible has some good things to say about Syria and Yemen (Sheba in the bible). There are many poor Arab folk in Syria and Yemen that have suffered greatly. Such trauma can both hurt and humble our hearts. We have not experienced such things yet in our Sodomite nations. But it is coming to the West very soon, in fact it is knocking at our door. After the fires of war and persecution have swept our hearts then our hearts can either be embittered or made better. When souls are restored to God then God will turn towards us with blessing. Arabs drink water just like we do. Water brings life. The water will return to the Middle East when there is true repentance, even to the Arabs. The water will return when God’s people return to God. Then all Israel and Judah will return to the land sworn to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. And a remnant of the Arab nations will play their part to help us as the bible declares.

The Lord will open the way for His People

I believe that the reason that there is more rain in recent years in Saudi Arabia and Yemen and the rest of the gulf states is that the Lord is beginning to fulfil bible prophecy. Yes the climate is changing around the world. Yes the jetstream is mucked up. Yes the magnetic pole reversal is about to happen. But the Lord is in control and the Saudi Arabian desert is just beginning to get a little greener. It doesn’t last long but it is noticeable. The prophecies in Isaiah were given well over a thousand years before Mohamed was born, and well before the Islamic commentaries were penned. The wilderness that the prophet Isaiah just described is not restricted to the current desert in the south of the State of Israel, it includes far more area than that, it is the area promised to Abraham! And so there is a blessing there for all the children of Abraham if they will submit themselves to the God of Israel, the true Creator.

We know that the wilderness includes Arabia because that is where the Ishmaelite tribes of ‘Kedar’ dwell.

Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.

Isaiah 42:11

‘Kedar‘ is the 2nd son of Ishmael. Some readers may remember the 1962 movie ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ with the Arab Bedouin Women singing/yelling/trilling their ‘ululation’ on the tops of the mountains. I think that is the sort of thing that the prophet Isaiah is seeing and hearing.

Parts of this wilderness will be devastated by the Lord in anticipation of the return of all the remnant of Israel and Judah.

15 I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.
16 And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

Isaiah 42:15-16

The Lord will mercifully cause it to rain everywhere that the returning Israelites tread in the desert wilderness. Remember Revelation 12? The woman, Zion is on the run, she is moving swiftly on the wings of eagles. This is not by jet, this is the 2nd exodus. The following verses that are sung in songs are very literal. Floods will be flowing while the world will be on fire.

1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

Isaiah 43:1-2

Even the animals will obey God. It’s a truly awesome thing. In the first exodus the Lord gave manna in the wilderness and even rivers. But the 2nd exodus will be even more supernatural

19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
20 The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
Isaiah 43:19-20

After Divine Judgement Saudi Arabia will Host the returning tribes of Israel and Judah

The Area in Red is where the real mt Sinai is located. Neom is a name given to a group of mega projects centred in this area.

Neom is where a great deal of development is occurring in one of the Saudi Princes most outlandish and ‘hair brained’ mega projects. Neom includes a ski resort called ‘Trojena’ next to the real mt Sinai and a strange high tech, socialist, carless, linear city called the ‘Line’. Is all this activity coincidental?

Mt Sinai may again be visited by the children of Israel in these last days. It may indeed be the beach head for the invasion of earth by the Kingdom of Heaven. It maybe here where the earthly assembly point for us is located. This maybe where the New Covenant comes in it’s fullness and the Bride is made ready for the rapture after the 2nd exodus. The 144,000 will have already been raised in glory and are about the the Lord’s business including helping Zion get her skates on to get to the ‘portal’, Sinai. So she comes to the 'wilderness of the people' which I suspect is Mt Sinai.

And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and there will I plead with you face to face.

Ezekiel 20:35

The Arab folks that are in the wilderness of Saudi Arabia play their part in assisting us as already mentioned. The Arabs have not been particularly hospitable to Israel in the past. David exclaimed the following…

5 Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
6 My soul hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
7 I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.

Psalms 120:5-7

But there will be a change of heart that comes to the peoples living on the Saudi peninsula as we return.

5 Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.
6 The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of the LORD.
7 All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.

Isaiah 60:5-7

Sheba is Yemen. Queen of the South Mt. 12:42; Lk. 11:31

I would be surprised if Neom is completed. It may end up forsaken like many crazy Saudi mega projects. I suspect that they will run out of time and money before it is completed. There are many projects within Neom and they all require a lot of money and about a decade to complete. Perhaps a few toilet blocks will be built before the tribes of Israel & Judah return. Right now the bulldozers are shifting dirt while the Saudi government still has brass in their pockets. In any case the world is mad and we are going home soon.

So anyway I believe that this area of Neom is where the Lord will assemble the tribes of Israel & Judah before their entry into the land. It is here that the remnants of the Arab nations including Ismael’s first and second born tribes of Nabaoth and Kedar will help us. We will have what we need. And we will be a blessing to them also. We bring His Word and the Lord brings His Water!

Matthew uses the term 'kingdom of Heaven' whereas the other writers use the expression 'kingdom of God'. There may be some debate about where the following occurs. But the point is is that God has a purpose for the nations including Ishmael's descendants including Nabaoth and Kedar. If we humble ourselves then the Lord will lift us up. Sadly the descendants of Jacob that don't obey him will be cast out to 'outer darkness'. There will be literal plague of darkness at this time!

11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.
12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 8:11-12

The 'outer darkness' may refer to the darkness that covers the earth in Isaiah 60. The 'gnashing of teeth' may refer to demonic 'evil beasts' and the zombie apocalypse when the wicked dead are resurrected at the time of the Revelation 12 flight of the woman to the wilderness which is the 2nd exodus. In Daniel 12 the wicked dead are raised as well as the righteous. This is not at the end of the Millennial reign of Yeshua but in a time of struggle during the tribulation, just read it. Revelation 12 also dovetails with Daniel 12 because MIchael is fighting in both cases. I suspect that the water spued out of the serpents mouth, Revelation 12:15, are people, but more than that they are the wicked dead! I guess you could add the Nephilim and other demonic entities as well.

Some Thoughts Concerning the News & Knowing the Times & Seasons

In this article I wanted to concentrate on some positive things to think about. God is going to make the desert bloom. And He will take care of the remnant of His people on their trek home through a thriving desert. He has already begun, it’s starting to rain in Arabia, and many Arab people are taking note. For many of them it is the ‘final hour’ or ‘last hour’, for the remnant of Jacob it is just the beginning. We are in the ‘end of days’, the last of the ‘last days’. I believe we have already entered the birthpang period of the tribulation and that things will ramp up more and more. I didn’t have the date correct on my timelines for when the tribulation began. But I think that it will be apparent to many that it’s quickly getting worse and that the Tribulation has already begun (or will soon begin) and we need to be getting close to the Lord.

So sadly for me my timeline of events didn't pan out, I had thought that we at the 3.5 midpoint of the tribulation by Pentecost. We have more yet to endure. Perhaps I am a year out? But nevertheless we are seeing the accelerating judgements upon our nations even now. I am watching and reading my Bible. I love God's Word. The world is already at war. The west is fighting Russia using proxies. America is provoking Russia on her doorstep. Russians know what happens if they don't fight, they got invaded by Germany in World War 2 after all. They wont let that happen to them again, this time by NATO. America is being set to fall, the elites have planned it, God has planned it, it's time. World War 3 may go nuclear soon. No matter what revolt goes on in the USA I believe that she will still be invaded. America is dividing between those that want Yeshua and those that don't. It's getting more bizarre by the day. Now they are talking about UFO's, AI, digital currency, 15 minute cities, transhumanism. Where will we be in 6 months time? Our world is so unstable now. The western world has lost its mind.

The magnetic north pole is at the 40 degree mark now and according to theory this will begin to effect weather. Could we see the seismic activity increase dramatically shortly? Are we about to see the shaking of the heavens and the earth that I spoke about in my article 'Does Red Horse Kick off WW3 on 15 Feb 2023 (24 Shevet)?'. There is a pattern of prophecies concerning the 24 day of certain Hebrew months.

I will continue to adjust my timeline of things as we proceed forwards in time to try and track where we are in this unfolding drama and Tribulation. And as I do I am seeking the Lord's face. I believe the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse are already moving and we are in the early stages of seeing Matthew 24 and Revelation 6 unfolding. Even if this is not the case we are being shaken and we should be getting ourselves ready.

Once the 6th seal is loosed the 2nd Exodus will be underway. There is a desert trek that must soon occur with the Lord's leading and assistance after the wrecking ball demolishes our nations. Persecution will increase rapidly with invasion. It's going to be bad everywhere.

I believe that our democracies are staged and there are no good guys, it's all just Jesuit theatre. Trump may pretend to stand for conservative values but he got the people jabbed. Whatever happens to Trump is of no relevance because the fundamentals of our nations are bad. The Titanic can't be saved no matter who's at the wheel. It's already struck and taking on water. It will be invaded. Get your eyes on Yeshua. The ship is going down. If there is return of the republic it is a smokescreen before certain invasion. America has become a Babylon and a habitation of Devils as all western nations have also become. It's all going to be sunk. We have to leave soon. Get your eyes on Yeshua and His Kingdom. Get your eyes off man and the media circus.

The Titanic's Transgender News 'Anchors' & Jesuit Theatre

Get your eyes off the talking heads of television news and get onto the prophetic word instead. I know time is a premium. But if you do watch a lot of news try for example, to spend some quality time with Isaiah or one of the other prophetic books. That is surely better than watching some over paid entertainer, called a news anchor. If we watch too many 'anchors' we shouldn't be surprised if we end up at the bottom of the Sea. It's all Babylon. You may be watching a man with some surgery dressed like a lady standing for Christian values but they are really just mocking the truth. For example there is a tranny called 'Megyn' who pretends to stand for christian values. Look behind the mask. The enemy puts on a disguise to appear as an angel of light. These days you don't even know if it is really a man or woman sitting in front of you reading the news and giving their opinion. It's all a giant Psyop. There is much that is a charade on the news. We all need to wake up and get our eyes off the news of Babylon and spend time reading the word of God. Ezekiel has something to say. Have a read of Zechariah. If you've read a lot of the Torah then read the gospels again. There are so many layers of meaning in the word. Wash out the world's brainwashing with the word of God. Wisdom comes from God's word not Fox news or the false Christian New Age shills on the alternative media circuit. It's good to know the headlines but stay away from the indoctrination. The news does not make you wise. It is full of disinformation. The news makes you blind because it is full of propaganda and the spirit of this age. I read the headlines and spend my time in the word of God. God's word is the wisdom of God. It is supernatural. God's word tells you what is really happening and will happen. If you want to leave Babylon the first step is to get Babylon and it's News Anchors out of your head! Wash your mind and heart with the water of His Word. If you read the news then you get someone's opinion on yesterday. If you read the Bible you will understand the past, present and future. And that is for sure. In the beginning was the Word, John 1:1. And the End is the the beginning, Isaiah 46:10. So read Genesis and the Torah and Prophets and you will understand Revelation better. Get the Bible into you and you will be future proof and truly informed. And pray and seek the Lord while He may be found, Isaiah 55:6. Seek the Lord and Live, Amos 5:4. There is not much time left.

Blessings and Love in Yeshua HaMashiach

Pentecost, a Son & Leaving Gomorrah

26/5/2023

0 Comments

I will keep this short. Pentecost may end in judgement. But it will also end in glory. The final Pentecost may see the end of the church age and the end of our nations. But the end is also a new beginning. Jacob shall soon return home. We must keep our eyes focused on Yeshua as the waves mount and the lights go out.

The Torah gave us a blueprint for the future. The bible tells us the end is in the beginning, Isaiah 46:10. In Genesis chapter 18 the Lord visited Abraham to promise him a son. Then He proceeded to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah and the so on. We will talk about Gomorrah (עֲמֹרָה) in a moment.

There are 50 days of counting the Omer, עמר, that get us to Pentecost (Shavuot) from Firstfruits. The name ‘firstfruits‘, bikkurim, can also mean ‘firstborn‘. We are told to count from Firstfruits to Pentecost because there is a spiritual connection between them. There is a connection between to the two feasts. Of course Yeshua, the Son of God, rose from the dead on Firstfruits and the Holy Spirit came on Pentecost and the Congregation of Israel (Church) began in earnest. Both feasts are about sons. Prophetically we see that the promise to Abraham to have a son is actually being fulfilled through the church age through the good news of Yeshua HaMashiach.

Pentecost is the central feast of the 7 feasts. It has been partially fulfilled with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 2 but we are still awaiting the full outpouring in the latter days that Joel describes where the Sun turns to darkness and the moon to blood and there are palmtrees of smoke.

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.
Joel 2:31

And so this Pentecost (or perhaps maybe next year or later) we could see the final outpouring happening in a time of judgement, even national calamity, invasion and world war. We will need His Holy Spirit more and more. I don’t want all the horrible stuff but I don’t want to live in lala land either. So it is so important for us not to get discouraged but trust in Him while we are being shaken. The Lord is going to pour His Spirit out. We must persevere in hope until then. It is obvious to many that we are already in a time of judgement. As I have been saying for a while we could see things change suddenly. Is this 50th day of the Omer count going to be one to remember or is it later? 50 is all about the Jubilee. Is this a Jubilee also?

The word Omer also means sheaf.

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf <עֹמֶר> of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
דַּבֵּר אֶל־בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵהֶם כִּֽי־תָבֹאוּ אֶל־הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר אֲנִי נֹתֵן לָכֶם וּקְצַרְתֶּם אֶת־קְצִירָהּ וַהֲבֵאתֶם אֶת־עֹמֶר רֵאשִׁית קְצִירְכֶם אֶל־ הַכֹּהֵֽן׃
Leviticus 23:10

The word for Omer, עמר, with the letters rearranged spell Gomorrah, ־עֲמֹרָה (in Hebrew). The 50th day of the Omer will usher in destruction upon the wicked cities of our generation. The Holy Spirit will be poured out at a time of judgement for the Lord's sons.

Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
וַֽיהוָה הִמְטִיר עַל־סְדֹם וְעַל־עֲמֹרָה גָּפְרִית וָאֵשׁ מֵאֵת יְהוָה מִן־ הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
Genesis 19:24

So again when the work of Pentecost is completed then Gomorrah will be destroyed. Just like when the Lord visited Abraham to promise him a son and then destroy Sodom and Gomorrah.

Just as the work of building the church began on Pentecost with the former rain, so will it end with the latter rain outpouring in a time of judgement.

Wounding us to get our attention before His return

I am not trying to scare anyone, I am actually trying to give fellow believers hope. So that when we see the hammer fall on our nations then we should look up because it is the beginning not the end. At the end of every end is a new beginning. We are going home through rapture and exodus.

People are dying from the poke in the arm.

The Lord will even heal the blood of his people.

For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the Lord dwelleth in Zion. *
Joel 3:21

Now we know why he would cleanse the blood. If He doesn’t then those infected will die.
The Lord allows such trials in order to refine us, to shake His people and get our attention. I get down too. I hurt too. I feel for folks no matter what they have done. There is not too many families that are not feeling pain. The Lord is shaking all of us.

All thy lovers have forgotten thee; they seek thee not; for I have wounded thee with the wound of an enemy, with the chastisement of a cruel one, for the multitude of thine iniquity; because thy sins were increased.
Jeremiah 30:14

Read all of Jeremiah 30 for context. I think we are in those days.The love of many is growing colder. We must be those that love more and hope more and trust in the Lord more. We need clinging faith.

The Lord is going to bring the remnant of his people from the USA. The Exodus will soon be upon us. So don’t look down, look up.

Pentecost (Shavuot) is all about the Son’s of God. As our nations turn to Sodom and Gomorrah we look to our faithful Saviour. His Kingdom is coming. Lord help us all to trust in Thee no matter what. Help us to keep the faith until the very end.

Love in Yeshua
and Chag Samaech

Introduction

The Lord God of Israel is on the move and so is the enemy of our souls. Since the 2020 Wuhan scam we have crossed into another world, a darker world. We have all been put on notice, if we have ears to hear, that we are definitely in the end times leading to the coming of the Lord as our governments seem hell bent on turning our nations into dictatorships. And most people follow along in lockstep, hell bent on trusting in man rather than God. How far along we are in the prophetic scheme of things is open to debate. At some point it will become clear.

My hope in writing this article is not to induce fear but rather to alert people to the lateness of the hour. I guess I have been doing a lot of that lately haven’t I? I maybe wrong about specifics of timing but I may not be too far off, time will tell.

I think we are living in times where things could unravel very quickly. Indeed they are beginning to unravel more quickly aren’t they? This unravelling includes the stuff we read in Matthew 24 which are the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse. I believe we are in that time already and we have softly slipped into the Tribulation period without most knowing it. If so then at some point the storm will become apparent. If I am wrong then that too will become obvious in time.

But with regards to time I think we need to battle hard to maximise our time in prayer and fellowship with Yeshua and the Father. Also we should look to extricate ourselves from the system of ‘Babylon’ as much as possible. We will need to trust the Lord more for our healing than rely on hospitals, We will need to remove our children from the public school system. Get out of debt as much as possible (if this is still possible). Get out of the cities if you can, at least pray in that direction. Try to insulate your family as much as possible from a system that is falling apart anyway. In our weakness we need to rely much more on the Lord for miracles than rely on the arm of flesh or ‘the system‘. Come out of Babylon my people, Revelation 18:4. Receive not her (man made) plagues! The 2nd Exodus is not far away, something hardly anyone seems to want to know about but is very imminent, even as invasion is imminent. Do what you can. God will do what you can’t! Pray, pray, pray!

The 50 days of Counting the Omer from Firstfruits to Pentecost helps us to focus on how precious our time is. Let’s use it wisely. These 50 days should remind us about another 50, the Jubilee. It will be a Jubilee of judgement for good or evil depending on our deeds. These 50 days are about counting, “Teach us to number our days”. It is my belief that the Firstfruits rapture could happen at any moment. The Omer עמר, is a sheaf of Barley grain, that is waved at Fristfruits. At Pentecost we come to the Wheat harvest. The grain is seed, seed of the word of God. Those who receive God’s word in Yeshua’s name and keep it are Gods seed, the seed of Abraham by faith, Galatians 3:29. The Omer is also a dry measure and was used to measure how much Manna the children of Israel gathered each day, Exodus 16:16. The Manna was like a seed too, Exodus 16:31. So the Omer is about God’s seed in every way, His Word and His Children, the seed of the Woman. Soon the Lord shall begin to manifest who His seed is. They shall be as numerous as the stars of Heaven or the sand of the sea for multitude, Genesis 15:5. Satan has his seed too, the seed of the serpent. But the seed of the woman shall bruise the serpents head, Genesis 3:15, Romans 16:20.

For over a year I have been warning and alerting God’s people as to the lateness of the hour. I wonder if the Lord is finished warning. I am not ‘worn out’, but the people maybe ‘warned out’! At some point soon the Lord will suddenly move. I don’t know when.

I suspect World War and invasion could happen soon, even by Pentecost. That would be sudden wouldn’t it? It may not happen but it’s the sort of thing that could happen these days. We could also see the latter day outpouring of the Holy Spirit spoken of by Joel. But if it doesn’t happen at this time I still believe it is not far away. We should be getting out of Babylon in our hearts and circumstances as much as possible. I share my thoughts here.

Perverted Demonized Nations

Cheer up, God is in control, even the end of this world is in His Hands. There is a rest for the people of God. Don’t fret, but don’t sleep while the bridegroom tarries either. We should rest in Yeshua without worry. But we should be watching.

I guess you have noticed that things are falling apart? I know many of my readers would of course agree. But perhaps some new readers are still waking up? I ask everyone the question that I have been asking for some time, could at least the first four seals of Revelation 6 have already been opened? The human races blood was attacked in 2020. War in Ukraine has already begun. America is picking a fight externally while destroying herself internally. War with Russia and China is looming, Banks are collapsing, Food prices are going up, the borders are open to thugs, bandits and foreign armies dressed as civilians. Things have gradually gotten worse since early 2020. And the pace seems to be quickening.

Are the birthpangs of Matthew 24 about to hit with a thud? If so then we can’t vote them away, it’s beyond that now. Our leaders are corrupt. Our nations are morally rotten on the inside and our borders are collapsing on the outside. The enemy is not just at the gate, they are within and they are actually running our nations into oblivion as fast as they can. This is not just in the USA, it is everywhere. Our nations have become Sodom. Romans chapter 1 is being played out before us in our government and in our churches. Our nations are being led by reprobate minds because we have rejected God. It’s not just evolution taught in schools, it’s now ‘drag queen story hour’. We are being given over to depravity. We are seeing the legalising of evil with the sexual perverting of little kids that should be innocent. Our schools are grooming children for paedophilia and sex changes. Our nations are becoming demonic, our nations are being turned to hell. The people are becoming possessed. We can’t vote this away. Our nations cannot be redeemed. Individuals may be saved but our nations are toast. I believe what is already going on is the judgement of God, the Lord is giving our nations over to Satan for their judgement and destruction. Our nations have given themselves over to depravity and the result is depraved minds. This is what happens when nations refuse to repent. No nation is above the Law of God, not Israel, not Babylon, not Babylon USA or Egypt anywhere. We need to be sober. Hell is on the move and Death is already stalking. What can the Lamb’s little remnant flock do?

The Lamb is the only one that can open the seals of Revelation, no one can overturn His judgement. But we can look to that same Lamb that conquered death to give us the grace to endure faithfully. The end of our Age is upon us. All we can do is look to Yeshua and hold tightly through this roller-coaster. Help us Lord to hear your voice! There is a rest for the people of God, our Messiah is in control. He will lead us. His Calendar shows us His Times & Seasons.

Taking down America & the World

Ever since early 2020 I have seen the Covid-19 scare and the Lockdowns for what they actually were, the beginning of the take over and dismantling of our nations by the forces of darkness and the bringing in of the Satanic New World Order. The Plandemic was far bigger than just a world war with guns and ammunition (that’s about to hit soon too). I believe that the Seals of the Apocalypse have been opened, and that Covid-19 was the White horse carrying a rider with a bow without arrows. It was a world wide ‘bloodless‘ coup, a judgement with all the world governments in Lockstep and people locked down on a wim because the government said so. Although ‘bloodless‘, this coup was all about the ‘blood‘. Serpents bite and inject poison into the blood, it’s just what they do. No shots were fired, not bullets anyway, not yet. People were not quite forced, but greatly encouraged threatened and manipulated to shoot themselves up with a needle. The pimp that primed the pump was our government. Donald Trump, the ‘good guy’ encouraged Christian America and the world to shoot itself at warp speed. Most followed their master like the Borg of Star Trek, arms outstretched, thinking caps off. So America is now a form of Babylon that has made the world to stagger like a drunkard. Come out of her my people and share not in her man made plagues. But where do we go, the whole world is Babylon and in lockstep?

Why did this happen? Nobody in government can do what they like, a conspiracy of this magnitude has to be given the ‘Green Light‘ from above. Although the Plandemic was Satanic in nature, I believe the Lord used it as His judgement on our nations wickedness because He has opened the Seals. Read Zechariah 5 if you want to see how the Lord curses those that swear falsely by His name. Death is being let loose. However even if Yeshua allowed it that doesn't mean that the snakes who do it are good, we still have a real enemy and already true believers have died in our hospitals of death, including followers of Torah! They didn’t die of Covid-anything, they died of their treatment in the murder houses that were our hospitals! I am thinking of Rob Skiba, may the Lord avenge his murder and bring justice. So we are already under attack. We must get stronger in these harrowing times. We must get real close to the Lord. We must walk in His will and not allow Satan a foothold. We have to overcome these onslaughts upon our mind and hearts.

If the seals were opened then I would expect things to get worse and worse. Well they have. But where are we in the timeline? If the seals were opened then we cant be far away from things really kicking into gear because we are over the 3 year mark since the Wuhan Plandemic scare began and the Lockdowns began. This is why over the last year I have become more and more concerned. Although things have gradually gotten worse, are things about to suddenly get much worse? Again, I don’t know anything for sure. I expected World War 3 (WW3) to break out earlier. Could the USA be about to be invaded? Is a revolution about to occur? I believe that whatever happens, it is going to be very soon. When the lights of freedom go out in America then they go out everywhere. This murderous time is the time of travail of Zion. It is short but terrible.

Perhaps before attacking America, she would be rocked by internal revolution. Perhaps let America have one last hurrah before the ship goes down. What if Americans think that they have got their country back and the bad guys are arrested, then when their guard is down attack. Or maybe the bad guys are taking over through revolution. In either scenario America is busy with internal strife when the enemy attacks from the outside. This was the prophetic message Dumitru Duduman was given years ago.

If I were a bad guy, hell bent on taking down America, I would disable her communications and infrastructure. So if the internet goes down then I would expect the first wave of an attack is in progress. Perhaps an EMP strike will be employed too. I am just guessing like many others have.

WW3 wont be conventional by any measure in my opinion. I suspect this world war will include mixed human and non human armies with enhanced Super soldiers from Russia and China and other places. WW3 will include Nephilim Giants and various kinds of Hybrids. What has been hidden underground and under the sea will arise. Demonic fallen technology. The invasion of Babylon USA could showcase the use of AI and Robots and tiny insect like Robots. My guess is that these invading nations could furbish Hi tech weaponry that has until now been the stuff of Star Wars fantasy including Sonic, MIcrowave, and Lazer weapons. If you think you are a gung-ho guns blazing preper packing some lead you could easily be hit by a sonic or microwave weapon that knocks you out cold with a single blow before you can fire off a round. I am not against self defence. But I think we need supernatural help, it maybe more like the Terminator movie and a sci-fi horror movie than John Wayne. And finally it could all be directed by the supernatural fallen angelic host of Satan if it happens when the stars begin to fall, Revelation 12, as I suspect it will.

I think that no matter who is in control of the White House, America is still going to be invaded because of the nation's sins. The home of the brave has become a harlot and a modern day Babylon (and the same can be said of other once christian English speaking nations including Australia). I think we are about to see the modern day ‘land of the North‘ destroyed and the 2nd exodus begin. I believe that the firstfruits rapture is soon, before Zion travails. Then another firstfruits rapture again as soon as Zion travails according to Isaiah 66. See my article ‘Victory, Rapture, Skyfall & 2nd Exodus‘ for details.

My question is, is this all about to happen now? If it isn’t then my timeline is out by some margin. Maybe my sequence is incorrect. Do your own research. It could be that what I think may happen now could happen next year. But I see no reason why it cannot happen now. As I have been saying for a while, there is not much of normal left. Remember the Titanic slowly took on water and then it suddenly did a nose dive into the cold watery abyss. The time of things changing gradually must soon give way to things changing suddenly and drastically. Is that time now?

The Omer, Firstfruits & Ascension

I am thinking about the 40th day of the Omer count and I present some of my thoughts. As usual, I am guessing at some things while other things may be more sure. I know that things are going to get out of hand very soon. I may be wrong on exact details but I may have some valid things to bring to the table. So I present what I have here. And I hope you find something of value to take away. Be strong.

The 40th day of the Omer count this year is Thursday 18th May 2023 which is the 27th day of the second Hebrew month. This is 10 days after the flood on the 17th day of the second Hebrew month. But in the Greek LXX translation of the Hebrew Old Testament states that the flood began on the 27th day! Did the scribes change the scriptures? Who is right? We will talk about that later.

What also happened on this day? Well our dear Lord ascended in a cloud on the 40th day of the Omer count. The Omer count began on Firstfruits when He rose from the dead according to my understanding of scripture (not rabbinic tradition). Will something else occur on this 40th day related to Firsfruits? It’s a possibility, so I mention it here. Before Yeshua’s return the Firstfruits will be raised. Our Lord is Coming.

His Kingdom shall soon invade this darkening world. The darkness is just the backdrop to further contrast the glorious light of Yeshua and His People. Our nations may be crumbling, but Yeshua’s everlasting Kingdom is about to be raised. We are but Pilgrims in this fallen world and we are on a journey to the city of the King. And very soon the King shall return.

I had hoped to see see the Firstfruits rise by now. The first of these Firstfruits are related to the barley harvest. I still believe it could happen any day now. The world is shaking and coming apart at the seams. My question is, is this the year that the Firstfruits are taken because we appear to be running out of time? And if it is the year then the next question is will the Firstfruits be taken before the end of the Omer count? If so then we should see the rapture of the Firstfruits taken to the sky and presented in the heavenly mt Zion.

And immediately after this will begin in earnest the travail for those who remain below including those that still belong to Him but were not ready to rise. This is because only those that have ‘clean hands‘ and ‘a pure heart‘ will rise according to Psalms 24:3-4, as I have discussed previously in the article ‘Victory, Rapture, Skyfall & 2nd Exodus‘. If we have faith in Yeshua but are not ready when He calls then we have to go through some stuff, like the bride in the Song of Songs. It is Zion that travails, and Zion is the congregation of Israel, the church of the firstborn. The travail of Zion will lead to the 2nd exodus.

Will there be a Pentecostal resurrection/rapture also this year related to the gathering of the Wheat firstfruits? That would mean two lots of Firstfruit resurrections, Barley & Wheat. We shall see.

Thankfully the King hears the cry of His subjects who are His sons and daughters. He will bring deliverance in His time but are we listening to Him? Are we listening to the One who hears us? He keeps His Covenant. Are we keeping faith with Him? We are counting on Him, can He count on us? Lord help us to stay close with contrite and obedient hearts.

Will WW3 happen about Pentecost?

I expected it earlier. Will something happen on the 40th day of the Omer? I am watching but I don’t know for sure. But there could be something at this time and so I share what could be and why. There is another reason that I feel that things could erupt about the time of Pentecost or just beforehand. I suspect that the final outpouring of the Holy Spirit spoken of by Joel will happen at this time, far bigger than in Acts chapter 2. Joel tells us that the sun turns to darkness and the moon to blood. There will also be ‘pillars of smoke’ which are literally ‘palm trees of smoke’ (mushroom clouds of WW3?). So something could happen on the 40th day to initiate these events. If this is so then the birthpangs would begin at this time. I would have thought it would have happened by now if it was going to WW3 by Pentecost. So I maybe a year off. I do know that we are to count the Omer for a reason, this time period is being emphasised by God through counting as opposed to just fixing a date.

I still have some problems with a rapture of the firstfruits at this time because the 40th day of the Omer is not a feast day. And 2 Esdras 2:38 tells us that the sons of God are sealed at the feast. 2 Esdras is not in the bible (but it was in the KJV Apocrypha) but I don’t dismiss it either. It joins some dots for me.

35 Be ready to the reward of the kingdom, for the everlasting light shall shine upon you for evermore. 36 Flee the shadow of this world, receive the joyfulness of your glory: I testify my Saviour openly. 37 O receive the gift that is given you, and be glad, giving thanks unto him that hath led you to the heavenly kingdom.
38 Arise up and stand, behold the number of those that be sealed in the feast of the Lord;
39 Which are departed from the shadow of the world, and have received glorious garments of the Lord.
40 Take thy number, O Sion, and shut up those of thine that are clothed in white, which have fulfilled the law of the Lord. 41 The number of thy children <Revelation gives us the exact number, 144,000>, whom thou longedst for, is fulfilled: beseech the power of the Lord, that thy people, which have been called from the beginning, may be hallowed. 42 I Esdras saw upon the mount Sion a great people, whom I could not number <try counting to 144,000>, and they all praised the Lord with songs.
2 Esdras 2:35-42

Who are we counting on & why?

The Lord tells us that we are to count 50 days from Firstfruits to Pentecost, Leviticus 23:15-16. In our little nest, we have been visually counting down the Omer with the cute home made picture above. Each day we colour in another day and we pray the written blessing. It is our way of being mindful of this special 50 day period as we watch for the coming of the Lord. Yeshua ascended 10 days before Pentecost. What else could happen on the 40th day? And what happens 10 days later at Pentecost? Is this the latter day outpouring of the Holy Spirit amidst World War 3? Or is it next year?

In scripture we are instructed to number our days if we would be wise. Obviously I think it is important as we approach our Lord’s return to take His appointed times very seriously.

If you have been following my recent blogs then you know that I have been saying that we could be on the cusp of both rapture and travail this year. I have suspected this, but perhaps I have been too early? Either it will happen or it wont. We will soon know. So far we have not had the 144,000 Firstfruits rapture. It could have happened earlier but it didn’t. We are running out of time for it to happen during the Omer count this year. I may have to adjust my timelines by a whole year at least. Or there is still some chance it’s about to spring forth. I still feel it is at the door. I would like to look at the 40th day of the Omer count in this article, the day when Yeshua ascended into the clouds.

I am acutely aware that our nations are on the cusp of famine, economic collapse, tyranny and invasion. It’s already beginning but it is gathering pace. But it could suddenly all quickly escalate. When this breaks out, including invasion, it is going to be the beginning of the end. Yeshua is coming. We are surely seeing the season of His return ripening quickly. The travail of these birthpangs of the Kingdom shall soon be upon us.

If we keep watching and making adjustments to our calculations then hopefully eventually we will get it right. He tells us to watch and so I believe He wants us to be looking and figuring these things out and seeking His face. Let us find out some reasons why we should “number our days” and “apply our hearts unto wisdom“…

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
לִמְנוֹת יָמֵינוּ כֵּן הוֹדַע וְנָבִא לְבַב חָכְמָֽה׃
Psalms 90:12

The Lord is counting on us to Count the Omer. Why? Why not just give us a date to hang Pentecost on? What is the Lord trying to say to us by getting us to count? We are in the time of the counting of the Omer that leads to the 50th day, Pentecost.

15 And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:
16 Even unto the morrow after the seventh sabbath shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the LORD.
Leviticus 23:15-16

So why does the Lord want us to count these days? In the past at His first coming significant things happened during the Omer count. Yeshua was raised on day one, ascended on day 40, and 10 days later the church was born on the 50th day, Pentecost. Could it be because He wants us to watch out for something during this time just before His 2nd coming? The Omer is all about the harvest. So could significant things related to the harvest of souls occur during this time? I believe we will see during the 50 days of counting the Omer a future resurrection/rapture and outpouring of the Holy Spirit, even as there was one in the past. I believe He commands us to count the Omer for these very reasons. And He is counting on us to count the Omer because it is all about His return for just as He ascended on a cloud so shall he come with the clouds, Matthew 24:30, 26:64, Mark 13:26, 14:62, Acts 1:9-11.

Yeshua’s Ascension

Yeshua ascended on the 40th day of the Omer count. So what day of the month was this? I suspect it was the 27th day of the second month based on what we know of the crucifixion, not church traditions. If Yeshua was crucified on Passover and died in the evening and spent 3 days and 3 nights in the tomb and rose on the first day of the week (Sunday) that would mean his crucifixion and death was midweek. His resurrection was on Sunday the 17th of the first month, Nissan. This was the feast of Firstfruits which begins the 50 day count to Pentecost. So the 40th day of the Omer count would be the 27th day of the second month. Acts chapter one tells us what happened..

To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
Acts 1:3

On the 40th day He ascended to heaven in a cloud.

And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Acts 1:9

We were then told that He will return in the same manner.

10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
Acts 1:10-11

Luke the writer of the book of Acts then goes on to discuss the fall of Judas. Could this also allude to the falling away that could occur during the period between the 40th day of the Omer and the 50th day which is Pentecost. Could Judas be prophetic of the Apostasy? We already see Apostasy in the last days Laodicean church. But could there be a false period of ‘peace and safety‘ followed by Apostasy and the revelation of the Antichrist? The persecuted Church of Smyrna is told to be faithful 10 days. Is this when Antichrist is revealed? Could Antichrist be revealed in this 10 day time period also? This is all just speculation. But it could be that a lot will happen in a very short period of time.

A nuclear exchange that ignites WW3 could happen at any moment, our world leaders seem hell bent on destroying our nations and igniting such an event. Could this be when Antichrist rises? Could this be when persecution hits an unprecedented level? And could this occur after the sudden disappearance of the 144,000 firstfruits just before Pentecost? If not this year then maybe later.

Again this is all speculation.The 10 days of tribulation that Smyrna has to endure could be figurative or it could occur at any time for example between Trumpets and the Day of Atonement. But let me share what I do know and why I think it is important to be looking for Him and searching for the time of His return…

Looking for Him before vs Travailing afterwards

Yeshua is coming back for those that are His. Those that want Him the most will be those Lambs most obedient to His voice, those that follow Him wherever He goes. The 144,000 firstfruits do just that…

These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
Revelation 14:4

Yeshua told us in the gospels to watch for His coming. We are also to pray to be counted worthy to escape.

Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
Luke 21:36

We are called to occupy until He comes. We aren’t called to be preoccupied! He will take those that are watching. He will not take those that are not watching. He will not take those that are sleeping. He even warns the church of Sardis that if they wont watch he will come as a thief.

Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Revelation 3:3

I have found a great deal of resistance to talking about these prophetic matters with many believers. I am not talking about make believers, but real beloved brothers and sisters in the Lord. They don’t want to know end times stuff too much. They want to focus on temporal things. They are not worldly. They are even spiritual, but they just don’t want to know. And so this I believe precludes their being ready when Yeshua calls the first of His firstfruits home! They have decided to stay in bed just like the bride in Song of songs. We must listen and obey and not be coy with the Lord when His voice calls us. Otherwise He will leave us in bed.

I have put off my coat; how shall I put it on? I have washed my feet; how shall I defile them?
Song of Solomon 5:3:

Her beloved withdraws and she goes about looking for Him. She gets beaten up in the streets. This is all prophetic of Zion. This is the true believing remnant of the church that does truely love the Lord but they were not ready when He called. This could be at the door. It could be even about to happen. We could have rapture of the firstfruits and tyranny occur at the same time.

So Yeshua wont come for the sleeping especially if they have heard His voice to wake up but choose to stay in bed spiritually. We are told that Yeshua will appear to those that look for him.

So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many;
and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
Hebrews 9:28

I want to stress this again. Yeshua is not coming for those that are not looking for Him. He is only coming for those that are awake, watching and that look for Him! If you still doubt that it is important to be watching for His coming and looking into these things then consider the Apostle Paul’s advice to the Thessalonians.

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety;
then sudden destruction cometh upon them,
as travail upon a woman with child;
and they shall not escape.
I Thessalonians 5:2-3

Yeshua said He would come as the ‘thief in the night‘ to those unprepared to watch for Him. What immediately happens after He has taken those that are awake? ‘Sudden destruction‘ comes to the world and to those left behind in the church that preferred sleep. And this is then likened to the birthpangs of a ‘woman with child‘. This takes us to Revelation 12, Isaiah 66, Micah 4:10. This could be the last 10 days of counting the Omer that leads to the final outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the 2nd firstfruits rapture (wheat) and then the turmoil of the 2nd exodus as our nations crash and burn. And this would dovetail with the fall of Satan and His Host as I have already said.

Noah’s Flood begins on the 27th day?

The 40th day of the Omer count is also the 27th day of the 2nd Hebrew month as we have calculated it for this year of 2023. This is 10 days after the flood which came on the 17th day of the 2nd Hebrew month according to my Hebrew KJV bible.

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
בִּשְׁנַת שֵׁשׁ־מֵאוֹת שָׁנָה לְחַיֵּי־נֹחַ בַּחֹדֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִי בְּשִׁבְעָֽה־עָשָׂר יוֹם לַחֹדֶשׁ בַּיּוֹם הַזֶּה נִבְקְעוּ כָּֽל־מַעְיְנֹת תְּהוֹם רַבָּה וַאֲרֻבֹּת הַשָּׁמַיִם נִפְתָּֽחוּ׃
Genesis 7:11

However there is a Greek translation of the old testament done before Yeshua was born that translates it as the 27th day or ‘εβδομη και εικαδι‘ in Greek! Steve from the Torah Family YouTube channel alerted me to this difference in his excellent video entitled ‘As in the Days of Noah – 4th Edition‘.

LXX
In the six hundredth year of the life of Noe, in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on this day all the fountains of the abyss were broken up, and the flood-gates of heaven were opened.
εν τω εξακοσιοστω ετει εν τη ζωη του νωε του δευτερου μηνος εβδομη και εικαδι του μηνος τη ημερα ταυτη ερραγησαν πασαι αι πηγαι της αβυσσου και οι καταρρακται του ουρανου ηνεωχθησαν
Genesis 7:11

Did the scribes change the Greek or the Hebrew? Who is right?

If the Greek is correct that would mean that the flood came and the Ark began to rise on the very day that Yeshua ascended into the clouds on the 40th day of the Omer count. This is 10 days before the 50th day, Pentecost.

Now I don’t know for sure who is right but let’s say the Greek was correct, that could infer that the 10 days between the 40th and 50th days could also be the 10 days that Smyrna were to suffer tribulation and possible martyrdom.

Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
Revelation 2:10

That sounds like Smyrna could experience a literal 10 days of tribulation if they missed the firstfruits rapture, for example between the 40th and 50th days of the Omer count. And it infers that Yeshua returns at the 6th seal which could well be Pentecost when the moon turns to blood, and the sun turns to darkness. The Lord is pouring out His Spirit and raising the dead with the Pentecostal wheat rapture firstfruits.

Look as I have often said, I don’t know if this happens this year. But it could easily happen shortly or it could be in another year. I just think it WW3 could ignite at anytime with the birthpangs of the Tribulation and KIngdom. So keep watching and praying. If doesn’t happen now, keep it in the back burner for next year.

The number 27 and budding forth of Strength

The 40th day of the Omer occurs on the 27th of the second Hebrew month this year.

One more little note about the 27th day is that the number 27 is also used to denote a year in which the ‘horn‘ or strength of the ‘house of Israel‘ is said to ‘bud forth‘.

17 And it came to pass in the seven and twentieth year, in the first month, in the first day of the month, the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
21 In that day will I cause the horn <Qeren, קֶרֶן> of the house of Israel to bud forth <Tzimiach, צְמִיחַ>, and I will give thee the opening of the mouth in the midst of them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
Ezekiel 29:17,21

So is the number 27 related to firstborn? The 144,000 firstfruits are the first of the Israel’s strength, since they are firstborn sons. A firstborn son is related to firstfruits…

Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
Exodus 22:29

So 27 is related to first month, first day and budding forth. I think of Aaron’s rod that budded. The Levites were taken as firstborn instead of the firstborn of each family, Numbers 17. Aaron’s sons were taken as firstborn from a firstborn. So likewise the entire house of Israel will bud forth as the Lord’s firstborn amongst the nations. The firstborn buds first. Only those that are born of Yeshua can bare good fruit. Only those born of Yeshua can be His firstborn. And 27 seems to be related to the ‘church of the firstborn‘. Of course there are 27 books in the New Testament. The firstfruits and the firstborn seem to be related to the number 27.

Psalm 90 – flying away at the end of the ‘Age of Grace’

One final note is that the verse in Psalm 90 that talks about teaching us to ‘number our days‘, so ‘that we may apply our hearts to wisdom‘ has also many prophetic things to say that directly relate to the time of Yeshua’s return. It mentions a thousand years is like yesterday. The Omer count is related to Psalm 90 because it involves numbering our days. Psalm 90 also mentions ‘flying away‘ which is similar to Yeshua Ascending in the clouds. It also talks about man being cut down like grass which reminds us of the end times tribulation. It also mentions being taken away by the flood. All end time metaphors. It talks about God’s wrath. This is 6th seal language. Psalm 90 talks about our average life span being 70 or 80 years, this is a generation. I am reminded of the parable of the fig tree and that generation would not pass away until all things are fulfilled. Israel came into being in 1948. Add 80 years to that we have 2028. Could 2023 or 2024 see the middle of the tribulation and 2nd exodus? I believe Psalm 90 is all about this end time judgement of the wicked and salvation of the righteous in a time of death and destruction.

1 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God.
3 Thou turnest man <אֱנוֹשׁ> to destruction; and sayest, Return, ye children of men.
4 For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past, and as a watch in the night.
5 Thou carriest them away as with a flood; they are as a sleep: in the morning they are like grass which groweth up.
6 In the morning it flourisheth, and groweth up; in the evening it is cut down, and withereth.
7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.
8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.
9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.
10 The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow;
for it is soon cut off, and we …

...fly away.

11 Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.
12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
13 Return, O LORD, how long? and let it repent thee concerning thy servants.
14 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
15 Make us glad according to the days wherein thou hast afflicted us, and the years wherein we have seen evil.
16 Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.
17 And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.
Psalm 90

I would rather 'fly away' than be 'blown away' that’s for sure. Let’s be wise.

So that’s all for now. I know it’s a lot but hopefully some folks out there can absorb it.

God bless, Shalom & Love
in Yeshua

Why Tribulation?

We have entered perilous times & the need for courage is very clear.

Why does God allow Tribulation? Why does God allow fearful and fiery trials? What do we do when we see the enemy coming to devour our flesh? Read Psalm 27 and find out. In Revelation 12 Zion is in pain to be delivered. Why would Yeshua allow Zion to be in such pain? Why do there have to be birthpangs? Why does God allow the greatest darkness to descend upon us when we are already doing our best to obey Him, when we are trying so hard to do what is right?

Of course I am assuming everyone that is reading this is walking in obedience to the Lord and is filled with the Holy Spirit and is not fulfilling the lusts of the flesh etc. If we are not then we can only look forward to judgement unless we turn to God fully. Seek Him now if you are in this category and keep reading.

If you are walking in obedience you may see the waves coming and you can be tempted to give into fear. Hold on. But you may ask why is God allowing evil to invade? What is going on? And how can we possibly overcome when all the power seems to be in the hands of the wicked that run government and big business? We know that light will eventually shine, Isaiah 60:1-2, but can we endure as good soldiers till then, II Timothy 2:3?

I think that to say that God’s people need encouragement is a profound understatement. I think we are all feeling the pressure of the times, even if we are only partially awake. Suddenly we feel the earth moving under our feet as the sure and predictable fabric of our nations and civilisation crumble below us, around us and above us. The devil's hands have been busy.

As we look at what is going on we can feel overwhelmed with a sense of helplessness as there seems to be far too many in our nations that are either simply fast asleep or straight out wicked. We are approaching a time when the Lord will strike but can we endure such an onslaught upon our freedoms and safety? There are many promises in the word of God. But there are also things that we must do to obtain them. There is often a spiritual fight to get to higher ground especially when the enemy attacks. I will share a bit more about what we can do shortly. But first I want to raise something that often people don’t want to know…

God will Judge His People

Have you ever wondered if someone that says they love you is genuine? Or maybe it’s a business relationship, can the person be trusted? If a husband suspects his wife of infidelity for example he may search to see where she is really at.

Well that is the case both with Israel and the Church, the Israel of God. Yeshua is the high priest of our faith and in the book of Revelation we are introduced to Him as one having eyes of fire.

His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
Revelation 1:14

Yeshua is not only King of Kings, but is High Priest of our Salvation. His body was the sacrifice, once for all, Hebrews 10:10. It is through His blood that we have redemption. He is our Saviour and He is our Lord and Judge since we have been purchased by Him. It is as High Priest that He searches our hearts as the middle church of Thyatira is reminded.

And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;

…
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
Revelation 2:18,23

A priest looks at the sacrifice and approves or disapproves. Searching the heart and kidneys is priestly work. He searches what is on the inside. His eyes search out where we are truly at. He Loves us, and True Love is Jealous Love. He knows us and seeks to see if our love of Messiah is ‘true blue (Genuine)’?

6 Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.
7 Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it: if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned.
Song of Solomon 8:6-7

God is Holy and Jealous and will burn up those imposters that swear falsely by His Name. I have heard teachers say that God would not allow His Bride to go through Tribulation or be beaten up. It sounds good, I agree in part but there is more going on here. Because if He suspects her of spiritual adultery then she shall certainly be tested. In the world we are all promised tribulation because we all have spots on our garments. So depending on where we are at when the tribulation comes we will reap what we sow and so we better not bring a curse upon ourselves by swearing falsely by the name of the Lord.

3 Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it.
4 I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.
Zechariah 5:3-4

The house can be our body and the body will rot if we are unfaithful. This is the curse of Numbers 5 that comes if a woman is an adulterer. I believe that the Plandemic and it’s wicked vaccines are a real snake bite and are the beginning of the curse that is spoken of in the above verse. Judgement comes to God’s house first. And the Lord is already beginning the prosecution of His people for theft and false swearing. This is tied to the Covenant with Death spoken of in Isaiah 28 which Jerusalem and Ephraim are a part of, that is, the Religious Jews within the secular state of Israel and Christendom in America and elsewhere headed by the spiritual drunkards of Ephraim. Much of the Church has committed spiritual whoredom.

So judgement is already out of the gate and running down the track. We have been spared the bulk of it’s impact until now. But I believe the four horsemen are about to hit hard. It’s not so much prophecy any more it is on the news. We need to number our days and seek God and get our hearts in order if we follow the Lamb.

If we obey the Lord then we have peace with Him. If we have areas of darkness and disobedience then there comes a time when the Lord will either deal with it or we are in danger of being cut off. The Lord is very gracious and longsuffering but He does have to judge sin eventually and judgement begins in the House of God first.

For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
I Peter 4:17

Yes we are saved by grace, but are we really His? Tribulation will reveal our hearts. And God will judge His people.

For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
Hebrews 10:30

At the end of the ‘church age’ the Lord is going to judge the church.

There is a judgement for rewards. But there is also a judgement to separate the false swearers from the true worshipers of God. The letters to the 7 churches of Revelation show Yeshua warning and judging his people.

In Numbers 5:12 and to the end of the chapter we are given a test for infidelity of a woman. The test involves drinking bitter waters that if found guilty will cause her to lose her ability to have sexual intercourse and bare children. What was done in the natural realm of a husband and wife also has far more importantly, a spiritual application. Moses was a prophet and this test for infidelity applies to Israel and the church. The relationship between the Lord and His people in likened to marriage. If the Lord suspects His People of spiritual infidelity then they may go through bitter waters. Are we true to Him?

So this is another reason for the bitter waters of tribulation, the Lord is searching our hearts. He did it in the Old Testament and He does it in the New Testament.

I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.
Jeremiah 17:10

We have been given grace through Yeshua. Have we feared God, have we taken hold of His grace and learnt obedience? I have been a slow learner. Judgement is not only coming, it is already here. There is martyrdom too, but not everyone is martyred. Despite what some say there are raptures if we are ready, the first one is coming soon for the 144,000 firstfruits and others. But there is also a remnant that will endure and even escape the dragon. So they are not all killed. But the Lord does have some scores to settle with the rebellious churches. Much of Israel is in America, both Jews and lost tribes. The Lord will test all those whether Jews or Gentiles, especially if they claim to follow Him but do not obey Him. If we have come to Yeshua by faith then we have spiritually come to the heavenly Jerusalem and mt Zion. And one day we will be there physically. The Israel of God is made up of believing Jews and Gentiles and she is Zion, she is the woman of Revelation 12, which is Zion, the Church of the firstborn (Read Hebrews 12). Seek the Lord. Get right with Him. Seek His face. Seek his face and live, Amos 5:4. The principle applies to all.

Overcoming Fear
– Our eyes are upon Thee

If we are walking in obedience we may still feel overwhelmed with what is going on. The answer is to seek the Lord. Focus upon Him. The bad guys seem to have all the money and power but we have ‘the covenant‘! The enemy is coming, but so is the Lord of Hosts, He is a Man of War, mighty in battle, Isaiah 42:13, and He is coming. The enemy may have the numbers and the initiative, but we look to the Lord.

O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.
II Chronicles 20:12

As I have quoted many times before, so I say again, we must focus on Yeshua.

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.
Isaiah 26:3

But this is not just a mental exercise, it is a heart exercise. The battle is won in our hearts. Yes we need to keep in mind that Yeshua is in control, for sure! But we need to make it real by seeking his face! When you feel the strain, do the following…

Pray
Pray
Pray
and Worship the Lord!

Tribulation causes our hearts to fear. We are in a ‘mind war‘, so get the word of God into you. But it also is a ‘heart war‘ so pray, pray, pray until you get the victory. Fasting helps in any spiritual battle. Don’t let the enemy set up strongholds of fear in your mind! And walls come tumbling down when our hearts are united with Yeshua and the Father when we worship! Here are 4 things to get the victory over your fears…

Bible
Prayer
Fasting
Worship

Our eyes must not be overly focused on the waves, even though they are very real. Find the will of God in every situation and seek the Lord. He will not let go of your hand, but you must reach out to Him in prayer. Focus on Yeshua and not the waves and you wont sink.

24 But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.
30 But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
31 And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
Matthew 14:24,30-31

The eyes of our heart must be fixed on Yeshua. He is the only one that can save us. The story of the disciples on the boat being tossed about by the waves is a picture of tribulation and of course ‘the Tribulation‘. But if you remember the Lord got the disciples through the storm. He calmed the waves. Yeshua is in control not Satan. He looses the 7 seals not the devil. Noah’s Ark being tossed about is a picture of the Church of Zion being tossed too and fro. The same tribulation as we see in Revelation 12, crying out in pain to be delivered. Just like the disciples. Our trembling hearts need help when the storm comes. And for believers we have a real anchor for our souls that unbelievers that do not have the Lord cannot enjoy. Unbelievers cannot have His peace. Sadly if they do not repent then their hearts will fail. They will sink, they will drown in fear. Their house is not built upon the Rock. But if we follow Yeshua and seek His face then we will get His peace and our souls will not perish, because we can go to the Lord our Rock, our fortress, our deliverer.

25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;”

26 Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.”

27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.”
Luke 21:25-27

So we need to understand that the Lord is in the boat with us. We can all too easily become afraid, but we can strengthen our hearts by spending time with the Lord.

So we need to have our feet firmly planted upon the rock of our Salvation, Yeshua. Yeshua is the Son of David according to the flesh. David was a man after God’s own heart. It is the heart that is being assaulted right now. Be strong. The strength we need is not the strength of mere positive thinking, and I am not saying that that does not have it’s place, it does when based on the word of God. But real strength comes from God and it is obtained by seeking His face. Our hearts need to be exercised when fear wants to invade the soft and fleshy fabric of our heart and nature. When Israel was overwhelmed in Egypt they cried unto the Lord and it was not in vain because He heard them and He sent them a deliverer. God is waiting to hear our cry to Him. And we must not let the darkness of fear to overcome us. We must persevere in prayer.

We need to know where to go when our heart is overwhelmed. I am not superman, my heart needs encouragement. Hearts are soft by nature. There is a vulnerability in our hearts that is intended by our loving Creator. Hard hearts are no use to God. We need to yield. Yielded hearts were made for fellowship with our maker. We need to guard and protect our hearts as a husband should guard and protect His wife. But we also need to expose our yielded heart to the only One that we can fully trust, our Lord. And our Lord will strengthen our hearts when overwhelmed.

1 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
Psalms 61:1-4

We need to keep the fire burning on the altar of our heart continually. We must not let the enemy put out the fire. Hope comes as our hearts come into His presence. Keep Seeking His Face, keep the fire of your heart burning.

The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.
Leviticus 6:13

Satan wants us to give up, but the Lord wants us to keep going. And we can only keep going as we obey His word and keep turning to Him in prayer. He has given us the Comforter, the Holy Spirit. But there is also a job for us to do. We must seek His face to live in order to endure in these days. Our hearts need endurance.

For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
Amos 5:4

This is a promise. So let’s seek the Lord and live!

Broken Hearts

So we may ask what is it that God is after in all this darkness? We have seen that the Lord will use tribulation to judge His people but what else is He using it for? Well one thing the Lord will not tolerate in His People is Pride, the sin of Satan. I believe that one of the main things the Lord wants from us is the following…

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
זִֽבְחֵי אֱלֹהִים רוּחַ נִשְׁבָּרָה לֵב־ נִשְׁבָּר וְנִדְכֶּה אֱלֹהִים לֹא תִבְזֶֽה׃
Psalms 51:17

Before the Lord delivers His people He first must humble their hearts, some more, some less, but we all must be humble before Him. Let us therefore not be overwhelmed by the gathering darkness all around, but let us seek the Lord in prayer more earnestly. And let our hearts also worship Him more fervently. This has been something that I have to some degree neglected to my own hurt. The Lord is looking for worshipers.

Making Lions or how Lambs get Courage

Apart from judging us and humbling our hearts why else must we go through hard times? Why must there be periods of time of tribulation in our lives? It is not pleasant is it? I don’t like it either. But then we wouldn’t grow the way the Lord wants us to. We wouldn’t know His grace in times of need if we don’t have times of need. He wants to build fibre into the oak tree. Strength is important, but it is not our own fleshly strength, but the sure knowledge of His strength and His right hand there to save us. After the troubling and hurtful experience we have not only suffered for a season, we have also grown strong in Him. Ships were not made for the harbour. We need to look at storms differently. As seasons where we grow. God is going to purify His people and make them strong (in Him)! This applies to the 'Tribulation' also! He is forming us to being strong in Him by His Spirit!

That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
Ephesians 3:16

Why is it that Glory comes in a time of Gross Darkness? Revelation 12 is Isaiah 60, it’s the same story from the same story book. I’ve quoted it so many times before but why does it have to be this way?

1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
Isaiah 60:1-2

This battle between the ‘seed of the woman‘ and the ‘seed of the serpent‘ that we read of in Genesis 3 has it’s ultimate culmination not only in Messiah but also in His Bride, the church (congregation) of Zion. Why must there be pain in the coming of the kingdom and the manchild (144,000)? Well we are told that the woman would beget children in sorrow due to her disobedience.

…I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception;
in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children;…
Genesis 3:16

Compare this with Revelation 12, Isaiah 60, Micah 4:10, I Thessalonians 5:3 etc. The Kingdom comes, but pain is involved. But Zion is Saved. And we are Zion. We are all in pain together to some extent.

22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
Romans 8:22-23

The culmination of this verse is in Revelation 12 and the manchild like Yeshua (1 Corinthians 15:23) is the firstfruits, Revelation 14:4, that follow the Lamb wherever He goes. Yeshua is the head, and they are his firstborn sons related to the Table of Shewbread and the middle branch of the Menorah.

The church is feminine and like Eve, and like a leavened loaf, has disobedience at the end of the age, so she shall be in pain. And Her child is not just the 144,000 it is ultimately the Kingdom of God (and the 144,000 are just the beginning of the coming of the KIngdom to the earth along with Yeshua at His return). For the Kingdom of God is within us, and what prevents it coming down and taking over the earth is the sin that is within us.

I believe that part of the purpose of the travail the body of Messiah is entering is to turn Lambs into Lions. Both are brave. A Lamb in some ways is braver than a Lion, it has to bravely face it’s own death or the very real possibility of death. It’s bravery is internal in the sense that it is ready for self sacrifice. In order to be a good soldier we must not only be ready to face the enemy but we must be ready to face the very real possibility of death. Before one becomes a good Lion they need to face the challenge of being a good Lamb. Soldiers need to learn obedience to their Master and then they can be entrusted with dominion. A soldier is both a Lion and a Lamb because not only can they devastate the enemy like a Lion, but at any moment they could be killed like a Lamb. And so both a Lion and a Lamb display courage and acceptance of their duty. A Lion needs courage not only to face the possibility of death (as a Lamb is also vulnerable) but they must also have the courage to take the battle on to defeat an enemy, to destroy their foe.

I believe this is one of the main purposes of the birth pangs, to change Lambs into Lions. To turn weak and broken people that can then become Holy Spirit empowered devastators. We can begin to learn these lessons now. This is a battle that only God can win, and only a meek, lamb like, yielded heart will be entrusted with the Power of God. We have to prove ourselves as good Lambs before we can be good Lions.

So let us strengthen ourselves and the ‘little flame‘ that is within our own hearts by getting closer to the ‘big flame‘ of the great fiery flame that is the intensely Loving & intensely Jealous and Holy Heart of God!

Wait on the LORD:
be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart:
wait, I say, on the LORD.

קַוֵּה אֶל־יְהוָה
חֲזַק
וְיַאֲמֵץ לִבֶּךָ
וְקַוֵּה אֶל־ יְהוָֽה׃

Psalms 27:14

Our battle is won on our knees. When the pain of the tribulation comes, it will have the positive outcome of bringing us to our knees collectively in such a way that the Kingdom of God within us is birthed. Otherwise until now all we bring forth is wind. Yes people are getting saved, but we are still under the power of the enemy in many ways including fear and powerlessness. Yes Yeshua has to come, but there is also a work for us to do and it can only be done from deep down inside our gut, from the depths of our hearts. So the very thing that we dread is the very moment of deliverance.

We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have as it were brought forth wind; we have not wrought any deliverance in the earth; neither have the inhabitants of the world fallen.
Isaiah 26:18

Fear can actually be used in a positive way. It can motivate us to seek the Lord. So let us not give into fear but use it as a springboard to prayer and seeking the Strong One that can Warm our cool, broken and hurting hearts in the fiery blaze of His Fierce and Jealous Love! Perhaps that is what the Lord intended anyway.

Remember Jacob feared meeting Esau, just like many believers fear the New World Order. But God used this time of Jacob’s trouble, this tribulation to get at Jacob’s heart. To turn a well meaning but fearful trickster into a prince with God, to turn a man that was living like a refugee into a straight talking, straight walking Leader named Israel. And this is the purpose of tribulation and ‘The Tribulation‘, to bring us to God and enable us to walk with our Lord and trust Him.

Lamb like disciples become
Holy Spirit empowered Resurrection Lions

In Matthew 10 the Lord sends his 12 disciples out to preach the gospel of the Kingdom, heal the sick, raise the dead, and drive out demons. He sends out the 70 with the same task. But later at their return He gives them power to trample on serpents and scorpions.

Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
Luke 10:19

This prefigures military engagement by the 144,000 and others when the Holy Spirit anointing changes from saving souls to actual warfare, when it’s time for Jacob to go home. I talked about this in the article ‘The Davidic Remnant Anointing‘. This is when the Age of Grace ends, the door of the Ark closes, the flood comes and it’s time to put the Pentecostal wheat into the barn.

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Matthew 13:30

This happens after Jacob has been 'made thin' through the 'horsemen of the apocalypse', Revelation 6, and Damascus has been destroyed, Isaiah 17. The church is completed and we go home about the time of the sixth seal, when the final latter day Pentecostal outpouring comes, Joel 2:30, and the wrath of God is poured out.

Psalm 91 starts off with those that hide themselves in the Shadow of the His Wings, in the secret place of the Most High. We are to pray to our Father in secret, in the secret place of the most high. To be a warrior, our hearts must be connected to the Most High, in the secret place. Towards the end of the Psalm they are not hiding anymore. They are on the warpath.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
Psalms 91:13

This is what was promised to the disciples in Luke 10 and it is connected to the promise to the Serpent in Genesis 3, that the seed of the woman would crush Satan’s head.

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Genesis 3:15

It is Yeshua and it is His firstborn 144,000 manchild company and all the rest of her seed at His coming that will crush the enemy.

We really have to get the prophetic voice of God in scripture, the seed of the Woman triumphs. It is not all doom and gloom for the remnant, it is Victory.

In the following two articles I also discussed how Lambs become Lions;

8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.
וְהָיָה שְׁאֵרִית יַעֲקֹב בַּגּוֹיִם בְּקֶרֶב עַמִּים רַבִּ֔ים כְּאַרְיֵה בְּבַהֲמוֹת יַ֔עַר כִּכְפִיר בְּעֶדְרֵי צֹאן אֲשֶׁר אִם עָבַר וְרָמַס וְטָרַף וְאֵין מַצִּיל׃
Micah 5:8

Touching the Altar

Once we are walking in a Holy way, once our hearts are fully circumcised, we can also touch other hearts. The Torah contains a whole load of parables, and one of those parables concerns the altar.

How do we reach other hearts? Well I believe the the following parable from the Torah gives us the key.

Seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the altar, and sanctify it;
and it shall be an altar most holy:
whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy.

שִׁבְעַת יָמִים תְּכַפֵּר עַל־הַמִּזְבֵּחַ וְקִדַּשְׁתָּ אֹתוֹ
וְהָיָה הַמִּזְבֵּחַ קֹדֶשׁ קָֽדָשִׁים
כָּל־הַנֹּגֵעַ בַּמִּזְבֵּחַ יִקְדָּֽשׁ׃

Exodus 29:37

“Whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy“. What does this mean?

Before the altar could become operational it first had to receive many sacrifices to be Most Holy, קֹדֶשׁ קָֽדָשִׁים. This is a picture of our heart that must become softened to allow the Holy Spirit to minister through us among other things.

The brazen altar (our heart) is where sacrifices are offered and burnt up. These physical sacrifices represent the relationship of our heart. It was never God’s intent to sacrifice animals all day long. It was a parable to tell us how to relate to God. True Sacrifice occurs first in the heart and then in how we live.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
Psalms 51:17

So let us use words and commune with God. The only calves He wants on the altar, are the 'calves of our lips' (communion with God in prayer).

Take with you words, and turn to the LORD: say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously: so will we render the calves of our lips.
Hosea 14:2

Every prayer where we touch God’s heart, we also get a touch from Him, it is like a little resurrection.

Now once all the sacrifices of the heart have been made, the heart like the altar is made most Holy and whatever touches it can become holy too. We can touch other people's hearts because our heart is now a place for the divine presence. Hearts touch other hearts. We all have some sort of an anointing if we belong to Messiah.But we can block the Holy Spirit through our carnal mind and unbroken heart. Our hearts require sanctification, to be made holy and then the anointing will flow.

But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.
I John 2:27

So our carnality and lack of holiness prevents us from touching other hearts as we ought to.

Seven days thou shalt make an atonement for the altar, and sanctify it;
and it shall be an altar most holy:
whatsoever toucheth the altar shall be holy.

We need the presence of God within our hearts to break out. When our power is broken, then His power can shine through from our hearts. The carnal Jacob like nature must be broken that the hidden man of the heart will be revealed (just as Jacob became Israel). We all have many breakings. Our Lord requires broken (humble), contrite and yielded hearts.

In numbers chapter 7 we are given an exhausting and repetitive list of all these identical sacrifices and offerings that are brought by the 12 tribes of Israel in order to dedicate the altar. The Lord is emphasising how important the heart is. Are hearts need to be fully operational. That is why we go through so many troubles, to get our hearts broken and contrite and yielded to the Lord. The Lord says to us when troubles come, ‘I know this hurts but please give me your heart’. We must trust in God.

My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.
Proverbs 23:26

He didn't say, "my son, give me thine head" now did He? He wants our heart. Tribulation is not just from the enemy, it is the Lord who is trying to get our attention by getting to our hearts. The book of Daniel makes this very clear.

And I heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.
Daniel 12:7

We don’t have to wait to be broken in the Tribulation if we would allow God to break us in all our mini tribulations. Then we can reach others with greater effect because the altar of our hearts are now most holy through sacrifice. We are a living sacrifice and our hearts need to be knit together with God’s heart to become Most Holy as a living experience in vital union with Messiah through the Holy Spirit that dwells within us. The tabernacle is a picture of our body and the body of Messiah. Before the tabernacle could be made operational the brazen altar representing our heart where sacrifices are made was inaugurated and made most holy. So it will be with the church of Zion collectively. Her time to shine is coming soon.

Seeking the Father’s Heart

In conclusion, the purpose of tribulation is actually to draw us closer and remove the idols of our heart including fear. Fear is a spirit.

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
II Timothy 1:7

The way to over come fear is in two parts.

Know God’s word and put it in your mind. Meditate upon it.
Get that word deep into your heart. This is where prayer comes in.

Knowing is connection. Adam knew Eve, it was a sexual connection. He didn’t just know about her. He was in this case physically connected to her. The heart needs connection too. And prayer opens the door and let’s the Lord in. Moses often met the Lord at the door to the tent of meeting where the brazen altar lay nearby where sacrifices were made. So the door that Yeshua knocks on is our heart! If fear is knocking on your door, how about letting Yeshua in instead. Let us get down on our knees and really seek Yeshua! We need supernatural heart knowledge, not just dry as a biscuit tin head knowledge (and acutally we need that too!). To know the Love of God is to be connected to God by faith. What does it take for God’s people to Seek His Face and LIve?

For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel,
Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
Amos 5:4

Don’t let fear get the better of you. Take advantage of it by seeking the Lord and be an overcomer just as Jacob became Israel. This goes for anybody, Jew or Gentile. If we belong to the Lord by faith then we are His Sons & Daughters and our Father is the King of Heaven & Yeshua is our creator and Saviour. That's pretty special. So seek Him.

When thou saidst, Seek ye my face;
my heart
said unto thee,
Thy face, LORD, will I seek.
Psalms 27:8

Mercy, Shalom & Love in Yeshua

The 144 Peace Train departing

Please also read the article titled ‘Yeshua Commissioning the 144,000 to bring in the Harvest‘, written one year ago. I have adjusted some timeline details but the basic sequence is pretty much the same. I really felt the Spirit of God moving when I wrote that article with revelation from the Lord.

Is this the year it all happens? Things are already changing rapidly but are things about to get far more surreal? Will judgements that have been damming up suddenly break forth like a wall of water, muck and filth? Is the enemy about to come in like a flood? Is the Lord about to raise His battle standard? Are the 144,000 about to ascend? Are there birthpangs about to come on strong? And have we 5 months of upheaval to endure, just like the 150 days when the waters prevailed in Noah’s day. Have we got 5 months of the 4 horsemen riding at Warp Speed as the 2nd Exodus gets underway and our nations descend into lawlessness and destruction? Does it begin like the flood on the 17th day of the 2nd Hebrew month? Will there be war in heaven? Will Satan and His starry angelic host fall over a 40 day period from the 17th day? Will the Antichrist be revealed? Are we overcoming the 17 works of the flesh? Are we pure like Joseph was? How do we stand before the Lord in terms of obedience, cleanness of hands and purity of heart? Judgement must first come to God’s House. If we say we follow Yeshua and keep Torah, do we have the fruit?

More Timelines towards end of this article.

Shalom, this is a heart cry so I am ‘calling all hearts‘, I believe we are at the end, but it’s not all gloom by any means. We are in the Omer Countdown to Armageddon and the establishment of Zion with Victory and fierce and cruel judgement at the same time! The Davidic warrior 144,000 Firstfruits will be taken soon, it didn’t happen on firstfruits but its very, very, very near. The train of salvation is blowing the horn loudly. Raptures, Tribulation, 2nd Exodus, it’s all about to break forth. Glorification to the remnant and Darkness to the wicked. The flood is coming, darkness is coming, but the Lord has not forgotten his humble remnant. Shut the door on the world, close it behind you. Seek the Lord in your room as the darkness of night descends. Light shall begin to dawn upon you as the Glory sets his people apart as Isaiah 60:1-2 declares.

1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
Isaiah 60:1-2

I believe this will happen soon. I have a few timelines towards the end of this blog so you can see at a glance what could happen very soon. Is 2023 the year everything changes? Are we about to enter 5 months of travail? Are the 144,000 about to ascend this year? See timelines section below.

In the meantime we must turn from the darkness of this world and focus on Yeshua. Tap into the stream of the river of life of God’s word and fellowship with the Lord through the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit). The word transforms us by it’s continual washing. And prayer and praise is so vital. We need to focus on the light and not the coming darkness. A literal darkness will soon descend also, like the ninth plague in Egypt, a darkness that can be ‘felt‘, Exodus 10:21.

Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast.
Isaiah 26:20

Let us hide ourselves in God, not in fig leaves of religion. Close the door. The Lord shall seal the door shut, just like in Noah’s day, the 17th day, and the Ark shall rise, the train shall depart.

And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.
Genesis 7:16

The firstfruits rapture did not occur on the feast of firstfruits this year. But I hear ‘the Lord is coming‘ banging loudly in my heart and so I have to bang the drum on this again. I feel it. The 2nd exodus is coming during the beginning of the birthpangs including all 4 horsemen. It’s about to break forth. It shall come suddenly. The Lord is warning those awake enough to hear.

Is this the year that the Tribulation is about to take hold in a major way? The Lord has a Bride, but is she ready when He calls? Yeshua has firstborn sons to raise too, the 144,000! Whoever is ready will be taken. It’s not about just having a mental belief in Yeshua or keeping the outer garb of Torah. If you are still carnal and fleshy then real heartfelt repentance is necessary. We need to be humble and circumspect. So are you spiritually leprous or clean? I ask myself the same questions. Are our garments white? There is not much left of what we once called ‘normal’. We are in the counting of the Omer, leading to Pentecost as our nations turn to Sodom, destruction and hell. Is this Pentecost the end of the ‘Church Age‘. Is it last days harvest time? For me the bells are ringing loudly, the Holy Spirit is crying out “Evacuate, evacuate, the train is departing, the train is departing!!!“

I feel that what I have been saying for the past year about the 144,000 is about to happen. We are on the cusp of the 2nd exodus and the tribulation that comes with it. The Lord shall make ready his remnant that is still left upon the earth and the raptured 144,000 will assist them.

I believe that the enemy is coming in like a flood, and so is the Lord for those watching and waiting for him. The flood came on the 17th day of the 2nd month. I will talk about timing later. I have talked about it before. But I feel such an urgency now, it’s just about to happen, I believe the voice of the trumpet is sounding. The Lord is saying to those that can hear, “all aboard, this is your final call, redemption train departing soon“. The train to the sky is a metaphor for going up together to heaven, for transformation, earthly to heavenly, and it is only for those that are clean and ready!

3 Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?
4 He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
Psalms 24:3-4

Those that have ‘clean hands‘ and a ‘pure heart‘ will go to the Father’s house! This is a firstfruits harvest. The Lord is coming for those that are ready, those that are earnestly desiring and listening and getting ready to meet the King. This departure is a rapture transformation of people’s physical bodies and gathering them into the sky and to the heavenly mt Zion. The first rapture is before Zion travails…

Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child.
Isaiah 66:7

This ‘man child‘ is not only Yeshua, it is the 144,000 manifest sons of God under Him. Yeshua told us to watch for His coming and there is a reward for watching. And if we are truly watching then we are getting our garments clean, and allowing the Holy Spirit to deal with sin in our lives. I am hoping that this departure includes some that are not the 144,000 but have still washed their garments in the blood of the Lamb. The 144,000 rapture, will take them up to the heavenly Zion to be presented as firstfruits before the Lord, Leviticus 23:10,20, then they will return to earth as His Servants to assist with the evacuation of Zion, called the 2nd Exodus. The ‘North Country‘ called North America will burn. The exodus shall commence.

Emergency, emergency, Red Alert!
Central command from on High is calling!
All hands on deck, Brace for Impact!
Man your stations.
Emergency, Emergency.
Seek the Lord and live!
There is no more time to talk!

For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
Amos 5:4

At the same time the stars will fall from the sky and the earth will be invaded by Satan’s fallen ones, the fallen angels. This is what all the alien movies and disclosure is really about. The masses will believe a strong delusion. They will say peace and safety before swift destruction comes upon them. The 4 horsemen of the apocalypse will be riding and the earth’s population will be decimated. The ‘north country‘ called north America, the USA and Canada will be destroyed suddenly. If you don’t want to hear this, and cant stand the thought of it, it is coming anyway. You will want to leave a nation of dust and ashes.

Before it is destroyed with Pentecostal palmtrees of smoke (Joel 2:30) there will be a firstfruits rapture. After the WW3 Palmtrees of smoke there will be the 2nd exodus. So there is a rapture before the main part of the tribulation kicks in, it happens before the travail comes upon Zion, the church of the firstborn as I have explained in previous articles and will explain again in this one. There is going to be a Tsunami of death and destruction, but the Lord will protect the remnant of His people that remain on earth. It is absolutely vital to remove the leprosy of sin from our garments. There are 17 works of the flesh that must be removed. The 17th day was a cut-off period in Noah’s day. So it is today.

This may be my last blog for a while about the 144,000. If I am correct then it could be the last blog as the world tumbles into much greater tribulation! If the following scenarios do not work out then I will have to rethink things, timing wise. But I feel the Lord saying ‘I am coming for you, I am coming to take you, I am coming to take you to my house‘. Emergency, Red Alert, ‘Seek me and Live’. I feel very strongly that the 144,000 will be raised shortly. It’s just a gut feeling. I have felt this way for the past year. But the pressure is increasing. I just have to tell you! It’s about to blow! It’s about to shake. It’s about to be born! I think the train is about to leave the station for the 144,000. They are going to be presented before the Lord in the heavenly mt Zion as His firstfruits, his firstborn sons, under the Chief firstborn, Yeshua.

Up, up and away!
To infinity and beyond!

I don’t believe we have to wait for a 7 year peace treaty with Israel. The bible does not say that, that is just man’s interpretation. We don’t have much of peace and safety left. The judgement and the birthpangs are coming suddenly. The seals open linearly but they will sort of mix together, earthquakes, war, famine, pestilence and death. It’s coming suddenly! Revelation 12 doesn’t come after the birthpangs of Matthew 24, they both describe the same time period, it’s the same thing, the same time period but just looked at from a different point of view. Revelation 12 looks at the entire struggle from start to finish from the eagles perspective, the big picture, Satan vs Zion, what is spiritually happening. Matthew 24 looks at it from the ground from man’s perspective, what is physically happening on the earth. And Matthew 24 dovetails with the Seal judgements in Revelation 6. So the opening of the seals in Revelation 6 begin the unfolding of the last days struggle which the gospels and Revelation refer to as ‘travail‘, ‘pain‘ of childbirth or ‘birthpangs‘, they are all the same time period. Revelation 12 depicts as an overview the struggle between Zion and her seed and the Dragon and his seed. We may see the ‘birthing‘ of the 144,000 and the fall of Satan and His host very soon. This is a battle between two seedlines, two bloodlines, this is the war between the ‘seed of the woman‘ and the ‘seed of the serpent‘ in Genesis 3. It may come with great suddenness, along with WW3 and the events in Matthew 24. There is already a war upon our blood! The Serpent’s war has already begun with a needle, but it’s still a snake bite!

I know I have said it already but please be patient with me I need to repeat it. This blog article is an Emergency Alert! I am feeling something. I don’t know anything for sure, I have the Holy Spirit and the word of God. I am feeling the pressure and looking at the times we are in. I feel the Lord saying ‘He is coming‘. My gut and my heart tell me that this is it, it’s coming now! I feel that things are imminent including the rapture of the firstborn sons of Zion. (And yes it could take much longer than I ‘feel’ it will!) But my heart is racing now.

For those still worldly minded please know that we are in a spiritual war, we are at the end of what is normal. If you still think that who you vote for matters at this late stage then I don’t think you realise just how far down the drain our nations are. Our nations cannot be saved. They are already being judged. Tyranny shall take hold very shortly. God is about to bust His people out like He did in Egypt. For that task He is going to use the 144,000. But He is also going to allow the enemy to bring great suffering upon those that hardened their heart. Judgement begins in God’s House. No rapture for naughty people that preferred empty religion, pipe dreams and porn. If you are trapped in sin’s vice, turn your heart to God and cry out to Him. Seek His face with all you’ve got. God’s judgement is already here and will come down hard upon Laodicean lukewarm Pastors and their flocks. The leaders and shepherds will be judged first according Ezekiel 34 and Jeremiah 23. It will come suddenly.

I am not condemning anyone, I am simply saying that I feel in my gut we are out of time. The bell is about to ring in a very major way. It’s already clanging in my ears.

But Victory is on the way also. We need some folks to cheer us on too, even 144,000 of them. God is in control not man, He will raise up new shepherds and they will lead and feed the remnant flock as our nations collapse under the weight of sin and judgement. Many of the Pastors are leading their flocks to slaughter, Jeremiah 25:34, Zechariah 11:4,7.

As the enemy gets out his big guns, so will the Lord. Both Satan and Yeshua have prepared their soldiers. But there is no contest between the two in terms of power because Satan and Yeshua are not equal in power. They may be opposite in nature, but not in authority and power. Yeshua is God’s Son, God manifest in flesh, and Satan is a fallen cherub, though brilliant, he cannot win, because he has already lost. But he will destroy many. Be aware of the devil but reserve your fear for God. Fear sin and fear God even more. There is no contest, Yeshua is the Lion of the tribe of Judah. Fear Him. The sentence has been passed, Yeshua has risen and He is Lord יהוה. Yeshua opens the Seals, not Satan. Who is in control here? Seek Him, Fear Him, Obey Him!

V is for Victory, so is the number 17

The number 17 is all about ‘Victory‘. Joseph was betrayed at the age of 17 but he overcame. There is a wonderful study adapted mostly from someone elses wonderful labour. Check out the parsha study here, ‘Parsha – Vayechi – Joseph, Firstborn, Fish & the numbers 17, 50 & 153‘. What Joseph went through the 144,000 go through. The number 17 is related to the firstborn and Victory.

The Ark began to rise as the flood came down on the 17th day of the 2nd month. What destroyed the wicked, actually saved the righteous. And even in these very last of the last days we are to rise amidst the storm. We see the Lord faithfully protect His Bride, Zion, the church of the firstborn, in Revelation 12. This end time process begins when the Dragon stands before the woman to devour her male child (manchild). But the the son is rescued by God. This could be the year it happens. This could be the month it happens! (I feel it is coming soon.)

While still here we are to fight the good fight of faith.

4 For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?
1John 5:4-5

Please Oh God help us to press on to Victory with a capital V. Help us to clear the final hurdles. A new body awaits those that push through the world of hurt and pain and struggle. The Father is waiting for his sons and daughters to finish the race. It won’t be long now.

54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?
1Cor 15:54-55

The first to experience this Victory will be the 144,000 firstfruits.

These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
Revelation 14:4

These 144,000 firstfruits may be taken at anytime. But it could be on the 17th day of the 2nd month when the flood came, Genesis 7:11. There are also 17 ‘works of the flesh‘ that they must crucify in order to be in that resurrection. Yes they need faith in Yeshua, but only those who have clean hands and a pure heart may ascend to the Lord’s Holy Hill. Our faith must bear fruit. The 144,000 have died to sin and the Lord comes for them. They have died to the 17 ‘works of the flesh‘.

Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these;

1. Adultery,
2. fornication,
3. uncleanness,
4. lasciviousness,
6. witchcraft,
7. hatred,
8. variance,
9. emulations,
10. wrath,
11. strife,
12. seditions,
13. heresies,
14. Envyings,
15. murders,
16. drunkenness,
17. revellings,

and such like: of the which I tell you before,
as I have also told you in time past,
that they which do such things
shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:19-21

So that is pretty clear. If we continue in any of these ‘works of the flesh‘ then we ‘shall not inherit the kingdom of God‘. So much for ‘greasy grace‘ or skin deep ‘torah obedience‘. Many bickering messianics fail this list. If we walk in these ‘works of the flesh‘ then we are heading to hell. God help us to seek the Lord and purify our hearts and wash our garments of the filthiness of the flesh in the fear of God.

A personal note: I have failed in the anger, lust and self will department as a believer. It has taken years and years to break these strongholds. Slowly the Lord took the edge off my anger. Later He slowly dealt with lust. I struggled with Porn as a believer. I had a big chunk of resentment towards God for being alone for many years, this was before I came to torah. Then torah made it worse as I will explain. I am not a perfect person, but I am learning to follow the perfect God-man, Yeshua.

I didn’t come from a christian home. But the Spirit of God drew me. I got saved when I was 18 but turned away later, I couldn’t see God in my life. I went into the world and fornicated and searched for meaning. The world was empty for me and simply added to my pain and alienation. Then I returned to the Lord and He put upon my heart to learn Hebrew and then He began to reveal things. I loved the revelation but it came with a cost. Nobody wanted to know!

In 2005 God revealed to me via a supernatural download the identity of who Israel actually is. Life was already getting harder and a whole lot narrower with Torah in 2004. I loved it and hated the consequences. I couldn’t understand why He revealed torah to me and allowed me to suffer more pain and rejection as if life wasn’t hard enough. This has been a common theme in my life, even coming to Yeshua brought rejection. And it is common to many who follow torah etc. And every time He revealed things to me it narrowed my connection and fellowship options. Revealing the identity of the 10 lost tribes of the house of Israel was both wonderful and a gut punch at the same time.

Here in Australia there are so few that are interested in Torah let alone understand the prophetic importance of the 10 lost tribes of Israel and their reawakening and regathering. Those here who want torah are numbered in ones and twos, scattered here and there, often with no fellowship. There is a price for revelation and intimacy with Yeshua. There are many hurts to overcome in this world. We must not develop a root of bitterness with the Lord as I had. Bitterness can create a demonic stronghold of pride, anger and lust. It did with me.

We must draw closer to the Father, not push away from Him because of hurt. Knowledge can be a crown of thorns before it is a crown of gold. And the list of wounds keeps being added to the more the Lord reveals. This is part of the fellowship in sharing in His sufferings. The higher up the mountain you go, the lonelier it gets. So I know a little of what Joseph felt when he was imprisoned. I share in his sufferings and the sufferings of Messiah Yeshua as we all do if we would go higher.

And the journey is not over until we leave this world. So if we follow the Lord we want the real thing not a ‘greasy grace‘ or ‘false torah obedience‘ with it’s attendant pride. ‘True grace‘ leads us to ‘true torah obedience‘ characterised by a ‘meak and lowly heart‘. My advice, seek the Lord while He may be found.

Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD’S anger.
Zephaniah 2:3

If we are meek and lowly we may be invited to God’s house. The number 10 is all about God’s house. Please read ‘The Lord’s House & the 10th Hour, Day & Month‘ for more on this.

There are 7 feasts that cover the complete work of redemption.

The number 17 is equal to 10 + 7, that is, God’s house plus completeness/perfection/beauty.

Please read the article ‘Parsha – Vayechi – Joseph, Firstborn, Fish & the numbers 17, 50 & 153‘ for more on the number 17.

God’s sons

There are may scriptures in the old testament scriptures that refer to the 144,000. I have covered that in previous articles. But I just want to focus on one aspect of them. When they are revealed, when they are manifested to the world, the ‘fear of God‘ shall come to the remnant church composed of the descendants of Jacob and those gentiles that would obey torah with them. Isaiah prophecies the following scripture concerning the 144,000.

22 Therefore thus saith the LORD, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob, Jacob shall not now be ashamed, neither shall his face now wax pale.
23 But when he seeth his children, the work of mine hands, in the midst of him, they shall sanctify my name, and sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and shall fear the God of Israel.
24 They also that erred in spirit shall come to understanding, and they that murmured shall learn doctrine.
Isaiah 29:22-24

There are many in the church and messianic movement that may be correct on many doctrines, but they are not correct in all things. And there is a huge lack of the fear of God amongst most believers. But when the 144,000 are revealed, the fear of God shall come upon Jacob and the 144,000 shall instruct those that have ‘erred in spirit‘. This is coming very soon, as the travails come upon the congregation of Jacob (Zion) so shall the 144,000 will begin their work. They are beamed up, only to come down again and be manifested. Until then we grown.

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
Romans 8:19

God’s manifested sons of which the 144,000 are the first, will be for signs and wonders just like Moses coming to free Israel from Egypt. They will be needed in the 2nd Exodus.

Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.
Isaiah 8:18

I know I have spoken often about these things over the past year or so but I am doing so because I believe it is coming now! The darkness is coming, the stars shall fall, the 144,000 sons of God shall rise.

I believe there are two lots of 144,000 firstfruits, one related to barley and the other related to wheat. The period of 2nd Passover in the 2nd month is the last opportunity for the barley 144,000 to be presented this year. Friday 5th May is Passover sheni (2nd Passover) on the evening of the 14th day of the 2nd Hebrew month. We could have the darkness spoken of by the prophets occurring about the 17th, two days (and a bit) later. This is when the flood came which is symbolic of the fall of Satan and His host. If my feelings are wrong then it maybe a whole year away. But my gut says otherwise. I feel the Lord is saying ‘departure, departure, departure‘ now.

So I believe there will be a barley 144,000 firstfruits company rising by the 17th if this is the year. (There maybe others onboard the ‘Rapture Train‘ that are not 144,000 but the Lord takes them mercifully, a ‘great multitude‘, Revelation 7:9.) The Lord is preparing the wedding, getting his 144,000 servants ready, even as Yeshua told us in his wedding parables. These 144,000 servants will also help bring a further multitude and help the bride to get her skates on. There will be a resurrection/rapture at Pentecost along with world war, Joel 2:28-32 (KJV chapter divisions). This may be the other company of 144,000 firstfruits related to wheat. We shall see. Then the 2nd Exodus follows. The Bride will be resurrected/raptured in the seventh month between Trumpets and Sukkot. This could all happen over the following 5 months, just like the flood took 150 days until the 17th of the seventh month. So a lot will happen in a very short period of time including the persecution, famine, pestilence and destruction of our nations including the USA and Australia etc!

The 144,000 are distinct in character from the Church

The 144,000 are masculine in nature whereas the church is more feminine in some spiritual aspects. The 144,000 are related the the central straight shaft of the menorah, the 4th church, Thyatira. They come from the church, but they are separate from her. The sons of Zion are the ‘manchild‘ in Revelation 12, they are the warrior servant sons, men of steel. They could include females also, but their role is masculine in nature, harvest and warfare.

So the ‘Sons of Zion‘ are distinct in character from their mother (Zion). ‘Zion‘ is the ‘church‘ (in english) which is the ‘congregation‘ of Israel. As stated before, the 144,000 are related to the overcomers of Thyatira, who like Yeshua, rule over the nations with a ‘rod of iron‘. The 144,000 are under Yershua, and are like him in character or anointing. While in their flesh they suffer like Joseph, being rejected and broken and abandoned. But when raised in glory and sealed they are more like David in character, they rule and make war.

The church has been a leavened work, it began at Pentecost in Acts 2. Pentecost (Shavuot) is the beginning of the wheat harvest where two leavened loaves are waved before the Lord. Leaven represents sin and hypocrisy. God has been gathering a people for His Name these past almost 2000 years but there has been false doctrine within the church all along. Nevertheless people have been saved.

The 144,000 do not contain the same leaven. Yes they have all the failings of fallen human beings that are saved by grace, but they eventually desire the sincere milk of the word, I Peter 2:2, as opposed to the Babylonish mixture of the church. They graduate from milk to meat, Hebrews 5:13-14. They are meat eaters like Lions and yet they suffer with the Lamb Yeshua. They follow Yeshua, and they obey Torah, but not in pride and conceit, but with brokenness and humility. They follow the Lamb, Revelation 14:4. And so there is a separateness to them. The church cannot really receive them and neither can many messianic folks because there is still too much leaven in these groups also. And they have a more masculine like soul that somehow is different from the more feminine congregation or church.

Imagine a woman having a child, the child loves his mom, but he never drinks her milk! These are the 144,000 sons of Zion. They are not grown on church doctrine, they receive the pure milk of the word. The Torah gives us a statute about this. The Statutes, חֻקִּים, Chukim, are parables, encoded prophecy for the last days.

The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the LORD thy God.
Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother’s milk.
רֵאשִׁית בִּכּוּרֵי אַדְמָתְךָ תָּבִיא בֵּית יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לֹֽא־ תְבַשֵּׁל גְּדִי בַּחֲלֵב אִמּֽוֹ׃
Exodus 23:19

The word translated ‘seethe‘ or boil, bashal, בַשֵּׁל, also means ‘ripen‘. Now this strange instruction in the torah makes sense, you see, the ‘Law is Spiritual’. The kid represents the firstborn sons of Zion that are not ripened on ‘church doctrine’. But they get their milk directly from divine revelation of the word. Every Church denomination has some profound truths but sadly they also contain leaven, they contain error. Denominational doctrine will foul the works and lead you astray. The goats are the firstborn sons that are not ripened on their mother churches mixed up doctrines. I talked about this in the article titled ‘Yeshua Commissioning the 144,000 to bring in the Harvest‘. Don’t get boiled alive by being ripened on your denominational error.

Within the tabernacle we have an extremely obvious depiction of the relationship between the Church and the 144,000 in the Menorah vs the Table of Shewbread. The Menorah has 7 branches and the Shewbread has 12 loaves. They both represent the word of God, but the Menorah is the feminine Shichinah light while the Shewbread are the masculine men of war, the bread winners and harvest workers, the servant sons. For more on this see my articles on the warrior ‘Manchild‘ and ‘The Church & Israel‘.

Timelines, timelines, timelines.

I know I have gone on and on about this subject of the 144,000 in various ways the past year or so. But as I have already said a number of times I feel strongly that the Lord wants to let His people know that the rapture train is about to depart for the firstfruits. So whenever their departure occurs and however it is calculated, the 144,000 are about to go up to the heavenly mt Zion to be presented as firstfruits before the Father and Yeshua HaMashiach and sealed!

I believe things are already ramping up but the snatching away of the 144,000 and the darkness of Satan’s fall will be very sudden. The fall of Satan and His host will occur over a 40 day period I believe, starting from the 17th day of the 2nd month, just like the flood. It is important not to fear, no matter what. I don’t spend much time (if any) watching the news, I might browse the headlines and that’s about it. Whatever time I have I want to make prayer and the word of God first choice. We want to look to Yeshua, not on the waves.

So my assumption has been that we have already entered Daniels 70th week of 7 years. I have suspected that it began early March or April in 2020 with the ‘Plandemic‘, but we have been spared much of the pain and trauma of the birthpangs until now. If I am correct then it is about to take hold as the following timeline makes clear. We have thus been spared about 3 years and 1 month of tribulation.

But just like the flood, the waters of judgement will prevail for 5 months while the seals and trumpet judgements of Revelation 6 onwards are fulfilled. But just remember that Noah and family were safe.

At some point things will change suddenly. This is the 5 month period in red. There still needs to be Israel on the ground, but safe for 3.5 years, so not everyone is raptured that is truly born again. I talked about this in the previous article. It’s firstfruits first. The 144,000 will be raised to help preach and fight and save Zion on the 2nd exodus with signs and wonders. The 4 horsemen of the apocalypse are bringing death and destruction, these are the birthpangs of Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 which is the first 5 seals of Revelation 6.

Anyway the point to know is that the 2nd exodus is underway over this 5 month period of turmoil and destruction. The woman Zion, while still on earth is safe. She isn’t raptured yet, but she is safely brought to the wilderness of Sinai by the 7th Hebrew month, just like those in the Ark were saved. While the woman Zion is safe, much of the church and messianic folks wont be if there is unrepented sin and blindness of heart. There is a flock of slaughter also, Jeremiah 25:34, Zechariah 11:4,7! People may be truly born again but die unnecessarily because they allowed disobedience to run it’s course. Now they pay with their lives. If you feel condemned turn now! Repent now! There is a flock that shall be delivered too, Ezekiel 34:8!

The flood began on the 17th day of the 2nd month, Genesis 7:11. The ark rested on the top of the mountain on the 17th day of the 7th Hebrew month, Genesis 8:4. Noah got back to earth on the 27th day of the 2nd month, Genesis 8:4. This is a full year and 10 days in total.

The 144,000 were ‘redeemed from among men‘, Revelation 14:4. In scripture we are told about the ‘year of my redeemed‘, Isaiah 63:4. This could be this period of time and it could be part of a Jubilee year. A ‘Jubilee of judgement‘ to the disobedient and the ‘Jubilee of redemption‘ and full salvation for the obedient in Yeshua. This could also be a year of travail and mourning, soul searching and repentance to the ‘careless daughters‘ of Zion, Isaiah 32:9-11, which includes the remnant church. Verse 10 is translated many days and years but it’s ‘days upon a year‘, that is a year and some days. Just like Noah’s year and 10 days sort of thing. I think this is the same period of time. It’s the year in which the second exodus occurs. God is giving the true believers that made it through all the judgements time to repent and sorrow for sin. They wont be planting because the crops fail. The homestead system wont work in this time period coming. It’s all going to fail. We will have to trust in God. I love the homestead with it’s independent spirit, who wants to live in our godless and lawless cities anyway? But we are going to have to not only leave the cities, but very soon we will have to leave our homesteads and deeply depend upon the Lord for everything. Until then keep homesteading, but know the score, know that there will be a time to say goodbye to the ‘little house on the prairie‘.

If we are not part of the firstfruits harvests of barley and wheat, then we have more to endure. But God is faithful not to test us beyond what we can manage. In any case we are about to move into the events of the collapse of everything still normal with the fall of Satan and his host and the 2nd Exodus.

The first 5 seals are not the wrath of God but they are judgement and severe tribulation. The first time wrath occurs is in the 6th seal and it helps save Zion! It’s the 2nd Exodus. The old system is about to be replaced by the beast system. But the beast system is not fully operational until the Revelation 12 woman (Zion) safely makes it to the wilderness, which is the area of mt Sinai I believe. Sinai is like a beach head for the ultimate D-day when the Lord assembles His people and sets up His camp, His beachhead for the invasion of earth. By this stage the 144,000 can already come back and forth between heaven and earth on their missions.

Interestingly the Saudi Arabian government has suddenly decided to draw a ‘Line’ in the sand and a base camp next to the real Mt Sinai. There is a whole lot of activity with many projects. They call these projects collectively ‘NEOM’. They say the ‘Line’ will be a big city in the shape of a line. It looks more like a wall to put guns on to me. They say they have a sky resort called ‘Trojena’ next to Mt Sinai. They are already hard at work. I think they are building fortifications. Another vain project by the Saudi Royal Family and their New World Order elitist cronies. Yeshua is coming very soon for His Bride and by the 6th seal the heavens will be unveiled. Not only will they see the Lamb of God but the Kings of the Earth will see the Heavenly Jerusalem hovering above their heads like a giant city ship. They shall see it and be very afraid. They thought that they were the dominant species, now they know that they are dinosaurs and their days are numbered. Read Psalm 48 with your spiritual eyes open, it is the heavenly Jerusalem at the 6th Seal being unveiled (It doesn’t come down to earth until after the 1000 years but it is sending forth it’s troops and heavy guns so to speak at the 6th Seal). The earthly Sinai will be base camp for the Heavenly city’s King of Kings to set up His war camp for real and lasting world dominion. Even so, Come our blessed Lord and glorious King, Yeshua!

The Church of Zion is glorified but not raptured to heaven just yet, the wedding occurs in the seventh month but she has a physical journey assisted by angels and the 144,000 to get to Sinai. It’s a last days repetition of the exodus. Once she has left the ‘North Country‘ of ‘North America‘ and elsewhere and has arrived at mt Sinai she shall be safe. However she will see the coming of the fallen angels and Satan himself and the rise of Antichrist at the beginning with the birthpangs of the kingdom of God.

2nd Passover is on the 14th day of the 2nd month, Numbers 9:11, which is on Friday May 5th 2023 in less than two weeks time. The coronation of King Charles is to occur on Saturday May 6th, 2023, which would be the first day of Unleavened Bread. Monday 8th May 2023 is the day the flood came on the 17th day of the second month. So is this the year it all happens?

Is the Antichrist Prince Charles, Prince William or Obama? I don’t know for sure. They are all contenders. I think Prince Charles is too old to mount a war horse, but he may be preparing the way for sure. I think the unveiling of the Antichrist coincides with the fall of Satan and his angels, this is where the UFO-alien deception and programming comes in. The Antichrist may appear more like Superman than some old unmanly royal that plays polo. But he may still be married to a man dressed as a lady, a very royal and presidential tradition. Our culture is already Transsexual and Antichrist and our leaders are for the most part cross-dressing, homicidal, child sacrificing, blood drinking, devil worshipping occultists.

36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the God of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
Daniel 11:36-38

I wont be saying ‘God save the King’, not because I am anti royalty, but because I serve another King and He is already Saved. Indeed He is my Saviour! And I am more than a ‘Republican‘, I belong to more than a ‘Republic‘, I belong to a real ‘Kingdom‘, the Kingdom of Light, the Kingdom of God which is the Kingdom of Heaven. And that Kingdom is coming to this earth in a very physical and permanent way. I desire an audience with the true King of Kings, Yeshua, not some short lived Antichrist showoff that will soon become a beast of a man and perish like Pharaoh of old.

Everything in our world, just like 9-11 is rigged for detonation, economic collapse, famine, pestilence, war along with government persecution etc. It’s gotta go pop soon with a very big bang.

Although we should know the times we are living in we should not be focused on it. We need to tap into the river of God, into the flow of the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) and set our eyes on things above, on Yeshua and our Father in Heaven. I am looking to the Lord and seeking His face. I would strongly suggest we all do.

A long time yearning of my heart has been that the Lord Yeshua יהוה ישוע, would gather his people together. That we would be one house once more, Judah and Israel together and the gentiles called by His name. The story of the raising of Lazarus represents the Lord raising up and sending forth the Levitical Cohenim that are descended from Eleazar to the House of Judah to witness to Yeshua in a way they can understand. See my articles titled, ‘Raising Lazarus HaCohen‘ for more on that. The raising of Lazarus by extension also represents the 144,000 as a priestly warrior class. The longing in my heart is that the bride would make herself ready, that Zion would be established above all, on the top of the mountain of the Lord, under our glorious King. I long to see Jacob come together under King Yeshua. To see the Davidic throne reestablished and Levi being faithful to Messiah, for us to be a family again. All for one and one for all. Hallelujah!

The Lord is coming and the 144,000 firstfruits are ready for lift off. The Lord shall put some spiritual metal into the backbone His People, and encourage their broken hearts with men of steel and women of valour. Glory is coming. He has his Arrows in His hands, He has his firstborn sons! He has his weapons of war! Do not fear. While the wicked mourn a party will begin. A wedding is being arranged. You are invited, did you hear the call? Make ready.

Conclusion

Don’t be late!

Please also read the article titled ‘Yeshua Commissioning the 144,000 to bring in the Harvest‘, written one year ago with important details for a fuller picture of what is coming.

Love in Messiah Yeshua
(Even so, come Lord Yeshua)

The Risen Lord Yeshua & the 144,000 Firstfruits video introduction.

Introduction

Yeshua rose from the dead on ‘the third day‘, the feast of firstfruits (bikurim). Many of my readers will also be aware that the 144,000 are also called firstfruits. I have spoken about this often over the past year or so. Will the 144,000 be taken on this feast of firstfruits or some feast of firstfruits in the future or some other feast? We shall see. I give some of my thoughts here for you to ponder.

Have we already entered into the time of the end? Have we in fact already entered ‘Daniel’s 70th week’? Have we already entered into the tribulation but the main part of tribulation has been shortened and the wrath has been held back? Are we about to experience the main shaking now?

Are the 144,000 to be raised before the main shaking begins?

I would have thought it would have come already, but we should be watching. It will come suddenly.

The Spirit of the Lord is already moving.

The following is more speculation concerning timing...

3 years into the Tribulation already?

Since the about Purim 2020 I have felt we have strongly lurched towards the dark world and system of the Antichrist as our fundamental freedoms have been assaulted. It is clear that the Plandemic has been used as a pretext and excuse for a medical tyranny that has nothing to do with our good and everything to do with our harm and subjugation as the descendants of Adam. There is also a clear demonic transhumanist goal of fundamentally changing our genetic code using a toxic combination of mRNA vaccinations with nano technology to hijack our natural immune system and turn us into some sort of demonic AI controlled robot; to remove the image of God built into our being and turn us into someone that can be tamed and controlled through technology like an animal on a very short leash. At worst we could be changed into something that is no longer human with the flip of a switch.

Now that wargame against our freedoms and our soul began 3 years ago. What was injected into the blood of Adam’s race has not gone away, it is waiting like a ticking bomb waiting for the day it is activated. In the mean time it is maiming and killing people, but it’s main beast like transhumanist purpose has not been switched on. It is awaiting the coming of the Antichrist.

So have we entered a period of time where God is shaking us in order to get our attention? And is He looking for true repentance? Is He searching the heart of His people now?

And secondly, have we already entered into the Tribulation period, but for the most part are not aware of it because it has not fitted the preconceived ideas of the Antichrist visibly appearing with a very obvious ‘peace treaty’ with Israel? I will soon know if my thinking has been right or wrong and you will too. This is part of the reason I am putting this blog out there. I am saying, that we could be entering the last 6 months of the first 3.5 years of the tribulation and things are about to get very supernatural very suddenly. Or I could be wrong (and I am open to that too).

What I do know is that we have entered the time of the end, since the Plandemic began and things are moving faster and faster, and although we could all be wrong on details, we are surely seeing the unravelling of the current order of things as our nations fall apart on every front morally, economically and peace is removed from our predictable lives.

Have we experienced the first 3 years of the tribulation already and is the next 6 months the main shaking and birth pangs? We will soon know if my suspicion has been correct and that the end has already begun. Even if I am incorrect as to the exact timing of things, we are certainly coming to the end of the world order as we have known it and trouble and tribulation are already here and increasing day by day.

To me it seems obvious that the package has been delivered, the bombs are away, and it’s in the blood. But God in His mercy has delayed the majority of the judgement in mercy. He has cut it short, not from the end of the Tribulation but from the beginning, 3 years ago. So this means that a lot of judgement is going to be compressed into a 6 month period which begins with the rapture of the 144,000 and the birthpangs of the kingdom we were told about by Yeshua in Matthew 24.

Tribulation verses Wrath

Governments argue and fight about all sorts of things but 3 years ago all the nations of the world suddenly agreed to inject their people with an experimental drug. Three years ago they all came into lockstep as if controlled by an unseen hand. So my thoughts and feelings has been that the whole Wuhan Plandemic scam has begun the time period called ‘the time of Jacob’s trouble‘ which in the new testament is simply called ‘the tribulation‘ (literally the trouble), Matthew 24:21.

For then shall be great tribulation (θλιψις μεγαλη), such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Matthew 24:21

Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble (צָרָה); but he shall be saved out of it.
Jeremiah 30:7

My suspicion has been that the seals have already opened but only the white horse has been released and this is not the white horse that Yeshua rides but it is the first seal of the Apocalypse released by Yeshua as he begins loosing the seals of judgement in Revelation chapter 6.

We promised tribulation in this world, but we are also promised that we are not to experience the wrath of God.

These things I have spoken unto you,
that in me ye might have peace.
In the world ye shall have tribulation:
but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
John 16:33

So we can experience all sorts of troubles and tribulations in the world, including for many the first 5 seals of the book of Revelation, especially if we are not ready for the coming of the Lord. But we will not experience His wrath if we are truly His.

For
God hath not appointed us to
wrath,
but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
I Thessalonians 5:9

The wrath of God is only poured out from the sixth seal onwards. The wrath is not poured out upon the Lord’s people, but upon the wicked.

And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
Revelation 6:16

So we are not appointed wrath but that doesn’t mean that we wont experience the beginning of the tribulation at all. Most Christians have been rocked gently to sleep that nothing bad can come to America or wherever and that nothing bad can ever come upon the church because the rapture will wisk away sleepy Laodicean pew warmers before trouble comes because they give mental accent to a few doctrines. Nothing could be further from the truth.

We are told to watch and pray…

Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Matthew 26:41

I don’t think we have seen the birthpangs of Matthew 24 just yet, but I believe that since the Plandemic of March 2020 we have been put on notice by our Lord that we are in that time of the end. But the birthpangs will come suddenly we are told. These are the wars and rumours of wars, famines, pestilences and earthquakes in diverse places. They will come suddenly. I believe it is very near.

If this is the case we shall soon know because we are already 3 years into this time period.

Yeshua is Risen

Here in Australia, today is the day following the sabbath, it is Firstfruits during the 7 days of unleavened bread. Yeshua rose from the dead on this day.

But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
I Corinthians 15:20

Because of the resurrection of Yeshua, we have new life and a new beginning. If Yeshua simply died as the Passover Lamb but did not rise, we would not have salvation, hope and victory. But because Yeshua rose, victory is secured. We already have the promised victory, now all we need to do is walk it out. As we die daily to sin we also walk in the victory of Yeshua’s resurrection.

3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Romans 6:3-4

In our daily struggles with sin, Satan, the world and our carnal flesh we learn to die to self (or we should be learning that). And if we persevere in our struggles we should see the Lord come through with resurrection power if we ‘faint not‘, Galatians 6:9.

This resurrection life both helps us now but will be fully realised at our own actual resurrection with a new and eternal body.

The 144,000 will also Rise Soon

The 144,000 are the first of those to experience the full power of the resurrection of Yeshua. They will be the first to be raised with Him. Could this raising occur on the feast of firstfruits?

These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
Revelation 14:4

I have said often that in the following verse I see three resurrections not 2…

But every man in his own order:
Christ the firstfruits;
afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
I Corinthians 15:23

There are 3 groups in the above verse…

Christ (who is first of the firstfruits)
144,000 (who are also firstfruits)
they that are Christs at his coming.

There maybe almost 2000 years between the raising of Yeshua and the 144,000 but they are both firstfruits and thus they both go first before the main body of believers. They are ready first and so they are raised first.

Between steps 2 and 3 is the 2nd exodus. The woman, Zion flees to the wilderness in Revelation 12.

Firstfruits in Leviticus

Here are the instructions for the feast of firstfruits if you would like to read it. Firstfruits occurs during the 7 days of unleavened bread. The firstfruits of the barley harvest are waved by the priest on behalf of all Israel.

9 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
10 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye be come into the land which I give unto you, and shall reap the harvest thereof, then ye shall bring a sheaf of the firstfruits of your harvest unto the priest:
11 And he shall wave the sheaf before the LORD, to be accepted for you: on the morrow after the sabbath the priest shall wave it.
12 And ye shall offer that day when ye wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering unto the LORD.
13 And the meat offering thereof shall be two tenth deals of fine flour mingled with oil, an offering made by fire unto the LORD for a sweet savour: and the drink offering thereof shall be of wine, the fourth part of an hin.
14 And ye shall eat neither bread, nor parched corn, nor green ears, until the selfsame day that ye have brought an offering unto your God: it shall be a statute for ever throughout your generations in all your dwellings.15 And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete:
Leviticus 23:9-15

The harvest cycle is symbolic of souls. Yeshua told us to look to the fields that are 'white unto harvest', John 4:35. The harvest is also 'the end of the world', Matthew 13:39. This refers to the Barley harvest, from Firstfruits, and then the Wheat harvest that begins at Pentecost. The 50 day countdown to Pentecost begins on the day of the feast of firstfruits when the barley wavesheaf is waved.

I believe that this may begin the countdown which will be the period of travail of the woman in Revelation 12 which is Zion. Zion is the Church of the firstborn, it is the bride of the Messiah. And she has to make herself ready, and get out of Babylon and head to the wilderness. She begets a son, a manchild that shall rule all nations.

The wavesheaf begins the countdown to her Exodus, the 2nd Exodus.

We will be leaving the USA, north America and wherever else we reside including Australia!

7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, The LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;
8 But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.
Jeremiah 23:7-8

Our nations are about to be busted wide open. We wont want to remain in our nations either. They will be destroyed.

For I am with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
Jeremiah 30:11

The 24th Day countdown in Haggai, Zechariah & Daniel

I have spoken of the very significant 24th Day Countdown before in the following articles…

24 is all about the betrothal and marriage of the Bride of Messiah. I spoke about the the number 24 in this article…

The Significance of the 24th Day

It could be that the main birthpangs occur after the 24th day of one of the months mentioned in Daniel, Haggai and the first chapter of Zechariah. Is it the 24th of this Hebrew month, Nissan, the month of Passover, Unleavened Bread and Firstfruits? Is it this year or next? We shall know when it happens I guess. Stay alert!

24th day 1st month - Daniel 10:4
Angel comes to give Daniel end time understanding
24th day 6th month - Haggai 1:15
Build Temple, Shake Heaven & Earth & Sea
24th day 9th month - Haggai 2:10
Overthrow Horse & their Riders
24th day 9th month - Haggai 2:18
Priests, Shake Heaven & Earth
24th day “ month - Haggai 2:20
Foundation Laid, Blessing from this Day forth
24th day 11th month - Zechariah 1:7
Red - Horse Earth at Peace

Haggai is all about the Lord shaking the ‘heavens and the earth’ and destroying the armies of the world with the horse and their riders! Sounds very much like what happened in Egypt in the Exodus but on a much larger scale. It looks like the birthpang shaking that Yeshua spoke of in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21.

6 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while,
and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;
7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come:
and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.
Haggai 2:6-7

Trumpets & Jubilee

I have experienced a sort of personal Jubilee here in Australia these past 6 months. The Lord has so arranged my circumstances that after many many years of exile we have a little fellowship happening. The Lord has arranged it. He brought it to pass. He brought the people together. I have played my part, others have done theirs, but the Lord Yeshua is the carpenter, the master craftsman, the chief cornerstone and the one that builds His Church (congregation) and the gates of hell will not prevail.

The Lord began on the feast of trumpets last year which had great personal significance to me because I had complained to the Lord that we don’t need just a still small voice but rather a trumpet! I was so frustrated with what was going on in the world and my own powerlessness. The Lord heard. I think the trumpet is blasting for those that have ears. The Lord is coming.

Conclusion

Could we be about to enter 6 months of travail. Maybe. Maybe now, maybe later. I am watching but I don’t know anything for sure. But I am learning more and more from His Word and when things do begin to happen in earnest I think we will all know.

I think it is important for all of us to become familiar with His Word and as we diligently seek Him we shall find Him if we seek Him with all our heart.

And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:13

I don’t know the exact timings of things. I am only guessing. I have not received a voice or a dream or vision. I am simply watching. It could be that some of my suppositions are not 100% correct. My timing could be off. But don’t let my failings put you off from doing your own research and seeking the Lord’s face. We are certainly approaching the end of all things and the coming of the Lord however you measure it.

Whenever the 144,000 appear it will be the beginnings of the ‘travail of Zion‘ and her sure deliverance and the 2nd exodus and the 2nd coming of Yeshua. Stay tuned to Him and keep seeking His face and His Kingdom and don’t be discouraged but fight in prayer for your Shalom and you will find his good and perfect will in all things.

Love in Yeshua

Preface

The picture above may look pretty grim but when we are in battle we will endure discomfort, overcoming discouraging and seemingly hopeless odds in order to obtain victory. The 144,000 have a job to do. What greater prize could there be but union with our creator and overcoming the world, the flesh and the devil? Once this is done how about saving the lost and a fair maiden while conquering and ruling the world with Messiah Yeshua? There are dragons and devils without number and fallen angels to boot. Men of God were born for battle and conquest, to subdue the earth come hell or high water. And all the forces of hell are lining up for war against them. The forces of darkness may wear out the saints, Daniel 7:25, but the people that know their God shall be strong and do exploits, Daniel 11:32. They shall shine like the stars. The darkness shall be great but the saints of the Most High shall be glorious, Daniel 12:3, Isaiah 60:1-2.

We have entered into the month of miracles, sacrificial Lambs and resurrection Lions.

The voice of our Master Yeshua is calling the warrior to come higher, to climb the mountain, to come up to Zion, high above the clouds, the city of our God. If you can carry your cross well, then you can be entrusted with the weapons of war when the trumpet sounds. Iron shall clash with iron. Men of steel shall rise as Zion comes into deadly peril. The gloves are off and the battle rages.

There is a battle to be fought,
a Kingdom is prepared and is coming down.
The King has His men of war.
He has prepared them in the darkness of obscurity.
Soon they shall be raised for battle.
There is a dragon to slay and a woman to rescue.
Satan shall fall, Babylon shall fall,
Zion shall flee to the wilderness to the place prepared for her.
Safe from the cruel face of the Dragon.
The King is Coming…

God will soon raise his 144,000 Super Soldiers to assist Him in gathering in the harvest, rescuing Zion and bringing in the Kingdom of God under the direction and leadership of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, Yeshua HaMashiach. Yeshua is both the Son of David and the Son of God, God manifest in flesh and He is, most assuredly, very much, a Man of War! And He has His Commissioned Officers and Men of War. Soldiers lay it all on the line, they suffer and even die but they get the job done!

13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Philipians 3:13-14

Suffering obediently will lead to glory and reigning with Messiah Yeshua.
The 144,000 are firstfruits of Yeshua’s suffering and their own.

Introduction

During Passover (Pesach, פֶּסַח) we are reminded afresh of the exodus via the blood of the Lamb on the doorposts. We are thus reminded of the suffering servant, the Lamb of God, Yeshua. Through His blood we have the New Covenant and a way of spiritually leaving Satan’s spiritual Egypt (this fallen world) and our sin in particular. One day soon this spiritual redemption shall lead to the physical redemption of our body at the resurrection and 2nd exodus as I shall explain. The 144,000 will lead the way as firstfruits of the resurrection.

Pretty exciting for them. In the mean time we must occupy till He comes. He wants us to be about his Kingdom now! Not only did He suffer for us but if we follow Him we will also share in His suffering. And it is not a hopeless thing, because contained within it are the seeds of future glory. Through sweat and tears the Kingdom of God advances and something good is planted in our souls in the process that would not have been there otherwise. And if we suffer for Him we shall also reign with our Lord. Like all of us, the 144,000 are Lambs before they are Lions. They experience suffering before ‘rapture’, exaltation and glory.

Passover is a good time to think about Lambs that become Lions, Yeshua suffered but He did not stay in the grave, He is Risen! Passover is about physical and spiritual deliverance. Whoever we are, if we are believers we will soon leave our nations which have become Egypt, Babylon and Sodom spiritually, this is the 2nd Exodus. But we are not out yet. Let us look to the Lord. There is a job for all of us to do while here, souls need to be reached even now, ‘Thy Kingdom Come’. The Spirit of God is moving.

I have not heard too much about the 144,000 suffering. We are not told anything about their life before they were sealed. But we can deduce a great deal from the principles of the word of God and other scriptures that give us a hint of their ‘sacrifice’, a sacrifice we should all be making.

We all suffer in our flesh now if we are obedient believers. But is there an extra measure of suffering and sacrifice for the 144,000? If so, what could be it’s purpose? Are the 144,000 commissioned with the ‘gospel of the kingdom‘ and spiritual warfare in their current mortal bodies before being sealed and entrusted with physical warfare for the kingdom in their raised supernatural bodies? Perhaps they have been tested to some degree already perhaps more testing is coming, time will tell. What makes someone qualify to be a member of this firstfruits manchild company? I am sure it has something to do with obedience, character and a noble nature that Joseph displayed. We may not have to wait long to find out who they are, we are rapidly approaching those days. I share some of my thoughts and gleanings here.

Yeshua is our Passover Lamb. He was slain in the month of miracles (‘ness’, נס), Nissan, נסן. He was raised 3 days later in the same month on the feast of firstfruits, miracle or miracles! The grave couldn’t hold him and death couldn’t keep him.

The cross is vacant now, except for us. Yeshua is risen, but we are still a work in progress. The cross represents death to self. We don’t like it but suffering is sometimes necessary to develop our character. Iron is forged in a foundry. Men of Steel are not wall flowers. Iron Men do not work out in Beauty Salons. Like Joseph in Egypt, the Lord uses affliction, not to destroy, but to refine, to chasten, strengthen and toughen up the servants that He has chosen. Hard men are given hard tasks and they have to have the character to match what is required of them. We cannot buckle and break when put under pressure, stress and strain. Are the 144,000 likewise put through such trial before they are raised up in glory?

Do the 144,000 suffer before they are raised? Are they sealed while still in their mortal flesh or does sealing imply resurrection? Are they commissioned with the ‘gospel of the Kingdom‘ before they are robed in glory and entrusted with physical battle? Or does it all happen together after sealing with a glorified body? Do they follow the same pattern as our Lord, who ‘suffered in the flesh‘ before he was ‘raised in glory‘? We will find out some details as we proceed.

As a spiritual principle, true Torah obedience implies the work of the cross in our lives, death to self life. Let’s look at the role of Torah, discipleship and suffering in producing men (and women) of steel and garments of glory (a resurrected body).

Suffering

In all the articles or videos about the 144,000 I have seen, I have not read a single one about their suffering! It is assumed that they suddenly appear on the scene in glory and supernatural power without any details of their former life or why they were chosen. Perhaps this is how it will be seen from the world. But I wonder if there is more that we can deduce than this?

The bible tells us the following principle quite plainly.

If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
II Timothy 2:12

The concept of suffering has been avoided by the increasingly self centred Laodicean church. It is pretty much shunned in our western church culture. It is also passed over by proud messianic type folk that think the Torah obedience means that they wont suffer. I am not saying all messianic folk are like this either, but it is a phenomena I have seen far too much of, PRIDE! ‘Knowledge puffeth up but love builds up’, I Corinthians 8:1. We live in a proud age, filled with churches that are too shiny on the outside to suffer shame and the reproach of Messiah Yeshua. All we have left is a hollow New Age 7 steps to ‘me gospel’. It’s not Yeshua focused at all. And sadly all too often Torah is just head knowledge and pride. The outside is clean, the inside is dirty.

Also see other articles concerning our self oriented ‘Churchianity’ and our pride and coming judgement…

Thankfully there is also a real remnant that is getting deeper with the Lord. Suffering and self denial are implied in the Torah. The central book of Torah is Leviticus and it begins with sacrifice! These sacrifices are of course a picture of what Yeshua has done for us. But they are not just a picture of Yeshua, we are told that we died with Him and we are to die to self. The sacrificial system is really the gospel in flesh and blood. The animal must die so that we may enter the tabernacle with God. The carnal man must decrease and the spiritual man must increase. The cross is symbolic of the sacrifice on the altar. We are crucified with Messiah. This is the book of Leviticus in our flesh.

Suffering and self sacrifice have an important role in our lives. Before the Lord entrusts us with a big thing we often experience a big test. Torah obedience will enable us to qualify for the promise. But first we are tested. Remember how Joseph was betrayed and imprisoned in Egypt or David was chased by Saul. The people of God often suffer before they triumph. So we often suffer some opposition from the enemy before we receive the promise. This is where faith comes in. The patriarchs were tested. So were all the believers that followed the Lord יהוה in both the old and new testaments. Suffering does not mean failure, it’s just the opposite. The suffering is actually equipping us with the character we need to handle the gift, the promise, that we are after. Suffering and self sacrifice is a central message in the gospel, before the Kingdom comes to earth there is suffering and self denial. The cross entails suffering. But it’s not a hopeless suffering. It is enabling us to truly qualify to receive the promise and helps us to be faithful. Torah obedience does not negate suffering. Yes there are blessings that come through obedience but there is also much opposition to true obedience to the gospel and Torah. A truly devoted heart will experience the opposition of Man and Satan.

This principle of suffering first before reigning in glory is seen throughout the bible, including Joseph’s experience at the hands of His brothers and his lonely exile in Egypt and wrongful imprisonment. The prophet’s were tested and tried and we too are promised trials of faith if we are faithfully following the Lord. It is not the exception, it is the rule for those souls that would come after the Lord.

Rod of Iron

Like Yeshua, the overcomers of the Church of Thyatira a promised to rule the nations with a ‘rod of Iron‘.

26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
Revelation 2:26-27

This idea of a group of people, not just Yeshua, ruling over the nations with a rod of iron is repeated in Revelation chapter 12 with the birth of the ‘man child‘. I have spoken of this manchild company often in my blogs.

And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
Revelation12:5

In order to be entrusted with rulership with a ‘rod of Iron‘, Yeshua suffered. Would it be any different for the 144,000 Man-child company that also rule with a rod of Iron?

Before the Exodus there was Moses and two faithful warriors, Joshua and Caleb. They were two faithful witnesses. We read of two witnesses in Revelation 11. As a principle, to be a faithful witness in a perverse generation will naturally mean opposition. Now I am not focusing on the actual identity of the 2 witnesses but using them as an example of the need for faithful people speaking the truth under fire. Now before the 2nd Exodus there will be the 144,000. I suspect there will be two groups of them, one related to the firstfruits of the barley crop during Passover and the other related to the firstfruits of Wheat harvest at Pentecost. I have shared before on previous posts concerning the 144,000. We shall see. It is very near I feel because we are seeing the collapse of our nations as the spirit of Antichrist rises. (But also the Spirit of Yeshua is rising in the remnant of His people). So the 144,000 may actually be two groups of warriors from two different firstfruit harvests, barley and wheat. We shall see. In any case they are instrumental in the exodus as old testament scriptures make clear.

3 Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
Psalms 127:3-5

The above scripture ties in with the manchild company in Revelation 12 because conception is mentioned.

I wonder if so many folk would want to be part of the 144,000 Manchild company if a great deal of suffering was involved? Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die.

There appears to me to be two aspects to the 144,000 Manchild group, one aspect is as a suffering servant and sacrificial Lamb. The other aspect is a warrior, a Davidic Lion like King. Where else have we seen that same dual nature? In Yeshua of course! Before he was exalted He suffered.

The 144,000 are referred to as ‘servants‘.

3 Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
Revelation 7:3-4

Yeshua gave us many parables concerning servants, Matthew 21:33-46, 22:1-14, 25:14, Mark 13:34, Luke 12:37. These servants invited people to the wedding, or they came to collect the wine etc. The husbandmen did want to give them what belonged to the Lord. These servants were shamefully treated and even killed. On the one hand those servants were the old testament prophets and faithful Jews. On the other hand they are the servants of Yeshua who will be commissioned like the disciples in the time of the end. Could the husbandmen both refer to the unbelieving Jewish religious leaders at Yeshua’s time and also the idle shepherds of the House of Israel, the western church in the last days? I think so, and I think that time is right about now! So are the 144,000 amongst this group of servants that Yeshua’s parables spoke of?

Also at the end of Matthew 9 Yeshua speaks of the harvest and to pray that the Lord would send out labourers. In chapter 10 He sent out the 12 disciples to heal the sick, drive out demons, raise the dead and preach the gospel. They were only sent to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. They were sent as lambs amongst wolves two by two. They were to trust the Lord for their provisions and stay in a city and with the same family until the job was done. Those cities that would not endure their message would be cursed. Yeshua said that they would not finish going through the cities of Israel before He returns. But at the time Yeshua had not even left! So Matthew 10 must be prophetic for the future. And perhaps it is the 144,000 that fulfil this harvest commission. In Luke 10 Yeshua sends out the 70 similarly but with no injunction not to go to the gentiles. Does this speak of a Pentecostal commission to the nations by the 144,000 also? Thus this could be part of what the 144,000 are doing initially.

The book of Isaiah speaks of the suffering servant, Yeshua, Isaiah 42:1, 52:13. But this suffering servant may also include those that suffer with Yeshua, including the 144,000. To me there appears two opposing sides to the work of the 144,000. Like Yeshua, there seems to be a time of Holy Ghost empowered ministry while still very mortal and physically vulnerable. They are sealed and their service may lead to increasing suffering of these servants, before their resurrection and ‘rapture’. Why else would they be sealed unless they were still mortal and could be hurt by the judgements of God or man? After their resurrection/rapture the emphasis is on military exploits and supernatural warfare, trampling on snakes and scorpions etc. However what I discovered in an apocryphal book named 2 Esdras shows me that they are raptured and sealed at the same time during one of the feasts. I will discuss this later towards the end of the article. I feel the time is near and we shall soon see one way or the other how things go with these servants. The Lord is already moving by His Spirit world wide as the final grain harvest of souls begins to come in.

How much Torah do we want? How much are we willing to suffer? How much of Yeshua do we really want? What are we willing to forsake to follow our Master? When it comes to being 144,000 material I don’t think the issue is how tough we are, but on how much we want Yeshua. Will we endure the fires of affliction in order to honour the Lord and bring the good news to others? Are we forgiving like Joseph?

So I see two opposing aspects to the 144,000 in scripture, one a servant and another as a warrior. There are many verses in the old a new testaments that allude to them.

But let’s first look at Joseph and Israel’s enslavement in Egypt as a parable for us.

Out of Egypt I called forth my Son

The 2nd Exodus will be like the first exodus, only greater. Everything the Lord does is with types and shadows, with prophecy opening with an earlier, lesser fulfilment leading to a greatly expanded fulfilment. Suffering and deliverance has been a theme all along, ever since the garden of Eden.

We must firstly realise in our hearts that God loves His people. We are to remain in His Love also. We ought to obey Him.

9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.
10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love.
John 15:9-10

Clearly Yeshua desires us to obey Him. Perhaps this is something the 144,000 learn to do better than most. Like Joseph they suffer and learn to follow the Lord before being revealed suddenly to their brethren.

When the Lord brought forth the children of Israel out of Egypt it was not due to their righteousness, they were quick to go into idolatry. Neither did they enter the land of Canaan because of their own righteousness but due to the Lord’s mercy and love. See Deuteronomy 6:25,9:4,9:5,9:6.

When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
Hosea 11:1

As Israel went down to Egypt so did our Messiah, Yeshua with his parents. As the good Lord brought Israel out of Egypt so he brought Yeshua out also.

And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.

Matthew 2:15

Messiah has been with us all along. He knows what we go through, he went with us and He will bring us forth. He is with us now in our current exile in our nations that have become Egypt, Babylon and Sodom. And He is with His 144,000 even now before they are taken.

Joseph in Egypt

But why are we in ‘Egypt’ anyway? Why do we have to live at such a godless time as this? Well historically our forefathers were sent out of the land of Israel, like Adam and Eve were sent out of Eden because of disobedience. OK we are here because of what happened in the past. But we may protest and say we didn’t do it? Well Joseph could also complain. Why did God allow poor Joseph to be betrayed by his brethren and sold as a slave and carried away to Egypt? What sin did he commit?

17 He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant:
18 Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron (בַּרְזֶל):
19 Until the time that his word came: the word of the Lord tried him.
Psalm 105:17-18

No doubt Joseph was righteous. He was not perfect but he handled his abuse pretty well don’t you think? I imagine he was tempted with all sorts of bitter thoughts as we all would have. But he overcame all of Satan’s fiery darts.

The purpose of his unfair exile from Satan’s perspective was to destroy Joseph the dreamer. But the Lord had another plan. He was showing to the enemy that indeed Joseph had the right stuff to fulfil the dream of ruling over his family. You see to go up we must go down first. If we are to be used of the Lord we are first broken, like Peter, upon the Rock. Why? To come to an end of ourselves and the beginning of God’s grace in our hearts. Whatever we do it is by faith in God and not by works. Like Joseph we are learning to follow so that…

I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20

Once we have died to self, like Joseph did in the pit and prison of Egypt, we can be entrusted with bringing good news to our brethren and those dwelling in darkness. Yeshua must first wash us clean and all our pride and filth of the flesh and finally the rock hard flint-like carnal nature is burnt up. We have to have a heart of flesh. Peter experienced this grace working in his life, changing his self reliance into a sweet but strong Godliness and love.

3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 And beside this, giving all diligence,

add to your faith virtue;
and to virtue knowledge;
6 And to knowledge temperance;
and to temperance patience;
and to patience godliness;
7 And to godliness brotherly kindness;
and to brotherly kindness charity.

8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. 10 Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:
II Peter 1:3-10

If Joseph or you or I or the 144,000 are going to be used to bring good news to others to any measure, we must be purged of our sinful, rock hard, carnal nature. The Lord wont let us get away with it, even if others appear to do so. We must clean our hands, we must confess our sins and then He must wash our feet so we can bring others good news.

How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth!
Isaiah 52:7

Yeshua healed a lame man at the gate called ‘Beautiful‘, Acts 3:2. Once his feet were healed he could preach the good news to others. That’s what we need.

In this dirty old world, beautiful feet don’t come without a great deal of cleaning. How often I have kicked against the Lord, totally misunderstanding His Heart. Let us be purged of thoughts and attitudes that make us barren and unfruitful. Let us confess our sins to our Father in Heaven. If the Lord loves us He may keep us in the vice until we come forth as gold, until we have unlearnt our old ways and learnt His ways.

God help us.

Then we can be entrusted with greater service.

This was part of the purpose of Joseph’s trials, culminating in a forgiving heart. A true priestly and kingly attitude.

And this is what the Lord is doing in the hearts of the 144,000 in all their trials before glory. They are being forged anew in the furnace. And this is what he wants to do in all of us.

Egypt the Iron Furnace

What God did with Joseph was equip him for leadership. He had the spiritual gifts and qualities necessary for leadership. But his character still had to be formed and tested in the crucible as metal is smelted. Whether we are to be vessels of gold or silver or men or women of steel, we have to be put into circumstances that test our metal. And in testing us we are also changed from glory to glory. The more we are refined the more clearly we can see the truth and the glorious Lord of truth.

But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

II Corinthians 3:18

We are His workmanship, Ephesians 2:10. Once the Lord is satisfied with the work in hand, us, He can bring us forth out of the foundry of trial.

He does that individually and collectively for all Israel. You see He needs us to learn to follow Him and truly hear his voice. This is more than a surface faith whereby we give mental accent to scripture. He sees our heart. The priest searches the heart and the reigns (lit kidneys), Yeshua sees inside us.

I can personally say that it has taken me a long long time to begin to learn some very basic lessons. Number one lesson for me is ‘who is the boss’. Not me anymore. At least I have begun to learn this lesson. Another related lesson is ‘who is right’. It used to be me. Now I know the Lord is right, even if I don’t understand what is going on in my life. I am learning to follow and obey and keep my head down and only lift it up to pray or praise Him.

Anyway the Lord allows trials and affliction to bring us to repentance and work into us His glory and the image of His Son. When we are ready, when we have learnt our lesson, He will bring us out of our trial.

The following three verses say the same thing about the iron furnace of Egypt. God will bring us forth.

But the LORD hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace (כּוּר הַבַּרְזֶל), even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.
Deuteronomy 4:20

For they be thy people, and thine inheritance, which thou broughtest forth out of Egypt, from the midst of the furnace of iron (כּוּר הַבַּרְזֶל):
I Kings 8:51

Which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Obey my voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God:
Jeremiah 11:4

So ‘out of Egypt I called forth my son‘ as Hosea says. He has a purpose in our lonely sojourn in a foreign land, or in the furnace of affliction. He brings us forth to praise Him.

The iron is forged in the furnace of affliction. It was true for Joseph. It is true for the 144,000 and it is true for all of us by extension. The 144,000 are firstfruits so they are ready first to ascend from the Egypt of this world in order to bring in the harvest, for they are Yeshua’s servants. Their metal has been proved, they hear His voice, they are humbly keeping Torah and the testimony of Yeshua. They are faithful with the gospel message. They have endured affliction and learnt their lessons. They are the Manchild that rule with a rod of iron, under Yeshua who also rules with a rod of iron above them.

Axe Head floated

We may sink pretty low into the mire of this world but the Lord can bring us out. We may fall but the Lord can save us from drowning, he saved Peter. Truly we should all trust Him no matter what storm comes our way. All I know is that the Lord has brought me through many things in the past and I know who to cling to and who to call when trouble comes.

In the book of second Kings we read in chapter 6 a story about a group of the ‘sons of the prophets‘ who are cutting down trees to make a camp. As they were chopping wood an accident occurs that has deep symbolism.

4 So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood.
5 But as one was felling a beam, the axe head <literally ‘iron‘, הַבַּרְזֶל> fell <נָפַל> into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed <שָׁאֽוּל>.
6 And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick <עֵץ>, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim.
II Kings 6:4-6

Here is my interpretation.

The Jordan represents death. In Adam we all died.

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
I Corinthians 15:22

The ‘Axe head‘ is literally ‘the iron‘, הַבַּרְזֶל, in Hebrew. It just so happens that the word ‘iron‘, הַבַּרְזֶל, can also be translated as ‘the son‘,הַבַּרְ, and ‘image‘, זֶל.
The Axe head is the ‘image of the son‘, the man of iron, the manchild.
It is fallen. The 144,000 were fallen like all of us.
It was borrowed, again another wordplay. ‘Borrowed’, שָׁאֽוּל, also can mean ‘sheol‘, the grave.
The 144,000 were fallen and in the grave, having been dead in sin, but then the gospel came.
The ‘tree‘ or ‘stick‘ (etz, עֵץ) is cut down and thrown into the water.
Yeshua the tree of life came into this world to save us, including the 144,000.
The 144,000 were fallen and were redeemed by Yeshua the tree <‘stick‘> of life and keep the torah and come alive. Even risen in resurrection life.
The Axe’s job is to cut down the trees, to cut down the wicked, and build a house.
God’s house, a house of the sons of the prophets, Zion.

The 144,000 shall be used to preach the word and bring in the harvest of souls and bring the nations into submission at Yeshua’s command. They shall rule with Him as we shall see. David was a man of war and he prophesied about the rod of iron, Yeshua and his 144,000 and what they shall do to the wicked nations and their wicked rulers that hate the Lord and plan to get rid of his kingdom.

Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron (בֶט בַּרְזֶל); thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
Psalms 2:9

Cost of Discipleship

There is so much in the old testament scriptures that are about now and the immediate future. God is good, the best wine is coming now. Light shall shine in gross darkness. Even in a time of Judgement the Lord is faithful and true, He is gathering His ‘saints‘ (Chasdi, חֲסִידָי) together.

4 He shall call to the heavens from above,
and to the earth,
that he may judge his people.
5 Gather my saints <חֲסִידָי> together unto me;
those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice <זָֽבַח>.
Psalms 50:4-5

Notice that the Lord qualifies who his ‘saints‘ (chasdi, חֲסִידָי) are, they are those that have made a covenant with Him by sacrifice. What is the sacrifice that they bring? I think it is spiritual and is the fulfilment of the sacrificial system in Leviticus which is but a shadow of the spiritual sacrifice.

1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Romans 12:1-2

So as a principle we can see that the Lord’s saints that are gathered have made a covenant by sacrifice. And that sacrifice is themselves. They have put into practice what Paul instructs us to do in Romans, they die to self. And that self denial can ultimately lead to death in resisting sin. This is strong meat indeed.

Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
Hebrews 12:4

There is a cost involved in getting close to our Lord.

26 If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
Luke 14:26-27

Thus discipleship is personally costly. How far do we dare to go? There are many believers in Yeshua. But Yeshua has an elect group that go further. They take up their cross and follow Him more than others it would appear from scripture. Like Joseph they are not chosen for nothing. It is my belief that they are tested like Joseph. They go deeper, they go lower in order to go higher.

The 144,000 disciples of Yeshua will soon be sealed.

Torah Sealed amongst His Disciples

By the time we get to Revelation 12:3-4 the 144,000 have been sealed by Yeshua as we have already read. Yeshua has sealed the Torah amongst His disciples. This is also prophesied in the old Testament scriptures…

Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples.
Isaiah 8:16

No doubt they are sealed because they have graduated in some way. The sealing is an end to their old life, they have run the race. But what have they been sealed for? The next few verses that follow what we have just read give us a clue. Firstly God is hiding His face from most of His people and then He shall appear with his children, his firstfruits of Zion, his 144,000, Revelation of John 14:4.

And I will wait upon the LORD, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him.
Isaiah 8:17

The Lord has sealed the Torah amongst His disciples, His 144,000. There were initially 12 disciples in Yeshua’s time, now there are 12 x 12,000 or 144,000. But He is still hiding His face from the house of Jacob, which is both houses of Israel (10 lost tribes) & Judah (Jews). That means that the rest of God’s people, believing Israel and Judah are not yet raised! This is thus just the firstfruits. So what is the role of the 144,000 Manchild company at the time of their raising up in glory? The next verse gives us a clue.

Behold, I and the children whom the LORD hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the LORD of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion.
Isaiah 8:18

‘Signs and wonders‘ are used to authenticate a ministry, for the establishing of a new order of things and to bring people out of darkness and out of nations. Signs and wonders were used by the Lord to authenticate the ministry of Moses, Yeshua and the disciples and to battle the forces of darkness.

Moses – Exodus 7:3, Deuteronomy 4:34, 6:22, 7:19, 26:8, 34:11,
Nehemiah 9:10, Psalms 78:43, 105:27, Jeremiah 32:20, 32:21
Yeshua – Acts 2:22
Disciples, now Apostles – Acts 2:19, 2:22, 2:43, 4:30, 5:12, 7:36, 14:3
Paul the Apostle – Romans 15:19, II Corinthians 12:12

And so we see that signs and wonders are related to the exodus at Passover and the raising up of the church at Pentecost. The Church is the congregation of Israel, symbolised by the tabernacle. Both the Exodus and the Tabernacle of the congregation are part of the same exodus story. The exodus began in Nissan and the Tabernacle was raised in Nissan a year later. So we can see that signs and wonders are about the deliverance of God’s people and bringing in the harvest of souls which Pentecost is all about, thus filling up God’s house, His body, His Church, His Tabernacle.

The 144,000 are thus about the 2nd exodus and gathering in the sheaves and protecting the flock.

The 2nd exodus gets underway before the main body of the church is raptured. The firstfruits are raptured and sealed first, and the 144,000 are firstfruits.

See the order in I Corinthians 15,

But every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ’s at his coming.
I Corinthians 15:23

So there are actually 3 groups in the list above, not 2 as I will explain.

Christ (first of firstfruits, yes)
Firstfruits (but the 144,000 are also firstfruits, Revelation 14:4)
>>> 2nd Exodus begins…
The rest of His people that are Christ’s at his coming.

Between step 2 and 3 is the 2nd exodus. The 2nd exodus occurs between the sealing of the 144,000 and the rapture of the church at His coming.

So the role of the 144,000 after they are sealed is to raise up and protect Zion, the true church of the firstborn, before the main body of the church is also raised in glory. The 144,000 help initiate and expedite the 2nd Exodus as Moses and Aaron did years ago during the first exodus.

2 Esdras – Sealed at the Feast & Clothed in Immortal Garments

2 Esdras was included in the 1611 KJV bible. Whether you consider it ‘Canon’ or not it’s an amazing book. (I would also recommend reading 2 Baruch too!) 2 Esdras 10 has an amazing vision of a woman sad and weeping who then begins to shine and turn into a city!

This woman, whom thou sawest is Sion: and whereas she said unto thee, even she whom thou seest as a city builded,
2 Esdras 10:44

This reminds us of Revelation 12, with a woman giving birth to a man child. In Isaiah 66:7-8,10 this woman is identified as Zion, and 2 Esdras says that the woman is Zion (Sion) also.

Anyway 2 Esdras has some very interesting information concerning the sealing of the Lord’s people in chapter 2. The book of 2 Esdras talks about the number of those in Zion that have fulfilled the Law and are Sealed at the Feast and Clothed in Immortal Garments. Let’s read an excerpt here…

29 My hands shall cover thee, so that thy children shall not see hell. 30 Be joyful, O thou mother, with thy children; for I will deliver thee, saith the Lord. 31 Remember thy children that sleep, for I shall bring them out of the sides of the earth, and shew mercy unto them: for I am merciful, saith the Lord Almighty. 32 Embrace thy children until I come and shew mercy unto them: for my wells run over, and my grace shall not fail. 33 I Esdras received a charge of the Lord upon the mount Oreb <Horeb>, that I should go unto Israel; but when I came unto them, they set me at nought, and despised the commandment of the Lord. 34 And therefore I say unto you, O ye heathen, that hear and understand, look for your Shepherd, he shall give you everlasting rest; for he is nigh at hand, that shall come in the end of the world.

35 Be ready to the reward of the kingdom, for the everlasting light shall shine upon you for evermore. 36 Flee the shadow of this world, receive the joyfulness of your glory: I testify my Saviour openly. 37 O receive the gift that is given you, and be glad, giving thanks unto him that hath led you to the heavenly kingdom.

38 Arise up and stand, behold the number of those that be

sealed
in the
feast of the Lord;

39 Which are departed from the shadow of the world, and have received glorious garments of the Lord.

40 Take thy number, O Sion, and shut up those of thine that are clothed in white, which have fulfilled the law of the Lord. 41 The number of thy children <Revelation gives us the exact number, 144,000>, whom thou longedst for, is fulfilled: beseech the power of the Lord, that thy people, which have been called from the beginning, may be hallowed. 42 I Esdras saw upon the mount Sion a great people, whom I could not number <try counting to 144,000>, and they all praised the Lord with songs.
43 And in the midst of them there was a young man of a high stature, taller than all the rest, and upon every one of their heads he set crowns, and was more exalted; which I marvelled at greatly. 44 So I asked the angel, and said, Sir, what are these? 45 He answered and said unto me, These be they that have put off the mortal clothing, and put on the immortal, and have confessed the name of God: now are they crowned, and receive palms. 46 Then said I unto the angel, What young person is it that crowneth them, and giveth them palms in their hands? 47 So he answered and said unto me, It is the Son of God, whom they have confessed in the world. Then began I greatly to commend them that stood so stiffly for the name of the Lord. 48 Then the angel said unto me, Go thy way, and tell my people what manner of things, and how great wonders of the Lord thy God, thou hast seen.
2 Esdras 2:29-48

This passage from 2 Esdras is important because it tells us extra information that is not found in the bible directly concerning the 144,000 in Revelation 7 or 14. We now know that the ‘144,000‘ are sealed during a feast of the Lord. The bible tells us that three times a year the males are to appear before the Lord, during the feasts (chagim) Unleavened Bread (Matzot), Pentecost (Shavuot) and Tabernacles (Sukkot). So it must be one of those feasts.

My current suspicion is that there is a 144,000 raised during Unleavened Bread which may line up with Revelation 7. And another 144,000 that is raised during Pentecost. These are the sons of Zion, the manchild that the woman Zion gives birth to in Revelation 12. And finally the last feast is where the rest of Zion (the woman or mother, the Bride herself) is raised during Tabernacles. Again, we shall soon find out. The 144,000 protect their mother and fight for the Kingdom. The mother escapes to the wilderness to await her rapture at Sukkot. Her escape from the Dragon is the 2nd Exodus.

The fact that this account tells us of the sealing of those that have ‘fulfilled the law of the Lord‘ aligns with the passage in Isaiah 8:16 that talks about sealing the law amongst my disciples which dovetails with the account of the 144,000 who are sealed. And we are told that they are raised in their immortal bodies which is implied by their glorious garments. There are other details like songs and palm branches that dovetail with the account of the 144,000 in Revelation 7 and 14.

Suffering & Manifestation

We have already talked about suffering to some degree but I would like to leave a few scriptures to highlight the positive outcome of our sufferings in the flesh. If we suffer for doing good, it works in us glory.

18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

Romans 8:18-19

The original Greek word translated ‘manifestation‘ is ἀποκάλυψις, apokalupsis, which is the same word translated revelation or appearing.

G602 ἀποκάλυψις apokalupsis From G601; disclosure: - appearing, coming, lighten, manifestation, be revealed, revelation. Total KJV occurrences: 18

There is the revelation (revealing or manifestation) of Yeshua and there is the revelation (revealing or manifestation) of the sons of God (144,000 first and then the rest of Zion).

So our sufferings are not to be compared to the glory that shall be revealed in us when the sons of God are manifested or revealed. The 144,000 are firstfruits of the resurrection. They are resurrected/raptured first and thus they will be manifested first. So it can be inferred that they have suffered and learnt their lessons first. They have kept the commandments of God. They have fulfilled the law, the Torah. Some may say that this is not possible because nobody can keep the commandments completely. But they obeyed God in a way that He is pleased enough in them to raise them up as firstfruits. The Law is established by the just that walk by faith.

Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Romans 3:31

Part of Torah obedience is being true to the Messiah, Yeshua, the very one that the Law is a school master to bring us to, Galatians 3:24-25. And suffering is involved in following Him. And suffering is involved in preaching the gospel and reaching the lost. Satan doesn’t like that. He fights back. Spiritual battle is costly.

The book of Hebrews tells us of Jewish people who were tortured in the period of time of the Greek invasions of Israel in the times between the old and new testament. We are told that they chose martyrdom rather than deliverance so that they would ‘obtain a better resurrection‘. There are rewards for obedience. And there will be rewards given at their resurrection.

Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection:
Hebrews 11:35

The Apostle Paul suffered greatly for the gospel’s sake. But he hoped for a better resurrection too.

8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:
10 That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;
11 If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead
Philippians 3:8-11

We will all be resurrected so Paul’s reference to the resurrection of the dead after mentioning his suffering the loss of all things hints at his hope of a resurrection that must be a better resurrection. Why hope for something that all believers are going to get anyway? What Paul was after was a better resurrection, not a normal resurrection for a believer.

Paul reiterates these thoughts and says that if we are dead with him we shall live with him. Our suffering will lead to reigning with Him. So I suspect this same principle holds true for the 144,000 also.

10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
II Timothy 2:10-12

The Apostle Peter also states that trials of faith lead to glory!

6 Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations:
7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
1 Peter 1:6-8

12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
1 Peter 4:12-14

So I suspect that those that are chosen to be part of the 144,000 have been found faithful, obedient to the covenant and Torah, they have overcome their fiery trials and suffering to obtain the glory of reigning with Messiah Yeshua as His firstfruits of the resurrection/rapture.

You could say, “no guts, no glory“. But it’s not about how tough we are in the flesh, it’s really about how far we want to go in knowing the Lord; How much we seek His face; How much we sacrifice in order to obtain Messiah. He brings us through all our trials by his power, not our own. We know Him more intimately than others because we draw closer to Him and seek Him more fervently and obey Him more fully and love Him more ardently and suffer more and sacrifice more to obtain that closeness and clinging faith no matter what.

The Iron that overcomes the enemy

Let us now meditate on some uplifitng thoughts. Trials don’t last forever. The Lord is the deliverer from all our trials.

Passover is all about the deliverance of God’s people. Peter was in prison during the Passover and Unleavened Bread period. But prayer was given without ceasing by the church and low and behold the angels of God delivered Him. Even an iron gate could not hold Him back. This is not only history it is also symbolic for the future and a future deliverance. The 2nd Exodus is coming.

When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.
Acts 12:10

The gospel is advancing in the book of Acts. There is increasingly severe persecution along with increasing fruitfulness in the ministry. Souls are being saved. But the spiritual authorities are fighting back. Yet the church is not idle, they are praying fervently. The Lord answered their fervent prayers and sent his Angel to deliver Peter during Unleavened Bread.

Is this a picture of the rescue and raising of the 144,000 during the same Chag to appear before the Lord in the Heavenly Mt Zion?

Leading up to the 2nd exodus there will be a great deal of persecution. In the book of Acts there was a massive move of God’s Spirit that lead to salvation and repentance. The religious leaders of the day instigated persecution. The political leaders often felt threatened also. The same upheaval should be expected during the events leading up to the 2nd exodus. These events are the persecutions Yeshua spoke of in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21.

The manchild company shall rule with a rod of iron according to Revelation 12:5. These are the overcomers of Thyatira, the fourth church of the seven churches of Revelation. Thyatira is the central church and so the manchild is birthed from the centre of the woman, Zion, the church of the firstborn.

26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
Revelation 2:26-27

We need to realise afresh that the Kingdom of God is coming. There will come a time when Lambs become Lions, and that transformation occurred for our Lord 3 days after His death as the Passover Lamb. The true believing remnant Church is Zion and Zion shall triumph in the end against all the Lord’s enemies. The 144,000 are the first of her suffering seed to be sealed and raised before the 2nd exodus. Later all of Zion shall likewise triumph after the 2nd exodus begins.

Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make thine horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass: and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain unto the LORD, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.
Micah 4:13

Psalm 2 also mentions the one who rules with a rod of iron. This is both Yeshua and the overcomers of Thyatira beneath him, the man child. The kings and rulers of the world are enraged with the Lord יהוה, but it doesn’t matter, the Lord is coming. All they can do is rage against the Lord’s people. But the Lord has his chosen. Yeshua is in the heavenly Mt Zion in Psalm 2. And so are His 144,000 according to Revelation 14:1, who are his sons who will assist Him in breaking the grip of the wicked of the nations and their leaders.

Psalms 2:1-12

1 Why do the heathen rage,
and the people imagine a vain thing?

2 The kings of the earth set themselves,
and the rulers take counsel together,
against the LORD,
and against his anointed <Messiah>, saying,

3 Let us break their bands asunder,
and cast away their cords from us.

4 He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh:
the Lord shall have them in derision.

5 Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath,
and vex them in his sore displeasure.

6 Yet have I set my king
upon my holy hill of Zion.

7 I will declare the decree:
the LORD hath said unto me,
Thou art my Son;
this day have I begotten thee.

8 Ask of me,
and I shall give thee
the heathen for thine inheritance,
and the uttermost parts of the earth
for thy possession.

9 Thou shalt break them with a
rod of iron;
thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.

10 Be wise now therefore, O ye kings:
be instructed, ye judges of the earth.

11 Serve the LORD with fear,
and rejoice with trembling.

12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry,
and ye perish from the way,
when his wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Conclusion

At the darkest of days the Lord rescued his people Israel and delivered them from Pharaoh and the iron furnace of Egypt. On Passover the Lamb was slain and Yeshua died. It was not a hopeless death, but His blood paid for our redemption and purchased our souls. His blood paid the price for the 2nd Exodus and our eternal future with Him. Let us lift up our hearts and fix our gaze upon the Lamb of God this Passover. The King is coming and the King has His men. And He has His women also. The Holy Spirit is already moving. Souls will be saved. God is dividing sheep from goats. There is a harvest already ramping up as our nations descend into chaos. It is not about our sinking nations anymore, it is about His Kingdom. The Lord has chosen His servants, His disciples, those who have made a covenant with Him by sacrifice. Lambs will be Lions one day soon. In the mean time let us be about His Kingdom and hope in Him.
The world is ramping up for war. I thought it would have already come by now. But it will come soon enough, even as a flood. I believe the raising up and rapture of the 144,000 is very near as are the birthpangs and the 2nd exodus. The Lord has His men of Steel. The iron that fell be shall be raised up.
Over the last year or so I have written many articles concerning the 144,000. I think there is an expectancy everywhere of their rapture and commissioning coming soon. I feel it’s at the door. In the mean time let’s find out what the Lord wants in our own lives. Don’t focus on the collapse of our nations but on the coming Kingdom and what your King, Yeshua wants. Be careful what you focus on, it is not a time to be despondent. Yes the bad guys are doing bad things but the Lord is very much on the move. Both Darkness and Light are dividing and ramping up in intensity. Let’s lift up our heads our redemption is drawing nearer. Yeshua is coming soon.

Godbless, Shalom & Chag Sameach (a few days early!)
in Yeshua HaMashiach

The Revival of Queen Vashti or Queen Esther?

23/2/2023

1 Comment

In a time of judgement and war in heaven and on earth two Queens shall come into focus. Like Satan and his host, Queen Vashti falls while Queen Esther, like the remnant Church of Zion, is delivered. In the Song of Songs the bride is asleep when her Groom comes. There is an awakening of the bride of Messiah but only a remnant shall be ‘revived’ from slumber. ‘Revival’ can be a mixed bag. There can be a false and a true ‘Revival’ at the same time. We are approaching the end. The earth is beginning to shake, God is at work, and the enemy is not sleeping either. We have choices to make, the bride must make herself ready. Our nations will soon be destroyed. The 144,000 shall be raised. The remnant of Zion shall be saved. Let’s get ready, the 2nd Exodus is coming. Yeshua is coming.

Introduction
What is ‘Revival’?
Revival & Deliverance
Twins. God is doing two things at the same time
Wicked Elites leading mankind to their deaths
The Door of the Ark is open even in War
Rise of the Antichrist
Hope for a Fatherless Generation

Introduction

Does ‘Revival’ and bloodshed go hand in hand? This godless age is coming to a bloody end. God loves people enough to shake them up in order to save souls. God hates sin enough to eventually have to judge it. If He let it go any longer then it would not be merciful. We are living in a time when God’s Judgement and His Mercy meet. The Holy Spirit is on the move even as the Grim Reaper goes about his evil work. In the Garden of Eden there was a tree of life and a tree of the knowledge of good and evil that led to death. Humanity has been given a choice. Yeshua is calling.

This godless and ‘fatherless generation’ is going to see things never seen before. We are entering a time of ‘Wars & Rumours of Wars’, Matthew 24:6, Mark 13:7 and we will have to make choices. As we ponder our path we should be prayerful and wise. The Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) is active as we enter into this period of judgement. Introspection may lead to personal ‘Revival’ which leads to Repentance and Faith. The Lord is shaking things up physically and spiritually. There is a harvest coming, a harvest of souls. The Lord is going to bring some folks to salvation in this time of judgement. The bride of Messiah must make herself ready. An exodus is coming along with the rapture of the 144,000. So it’s time for the bride to awaken. The book of Revelation tells us about a whore and a bride, two Queens with two opposing destinies. What ‘Revival’ shall we be a part of?

In the book of Esther we read about two Queens and the events that led to what is called ‘Purim’. Both Queen Vashti and Queen Esther made choices that affected their destiny. ‘Purim’ comes from the word ‘pur’ meaning ‘lot’ or ‘choice’.

Esther 9:23-26
23 And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written unto them; 24 Because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur (פּוּר), that is, the lot (goral, גּוֹרָל), to consume them, and to destroy them;

25 But when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked device, which he devised against the Jews, should return upon his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

26 Wherefore they called these days Purim (פוּרִים) after the name of Pur (פּוּר). Therefore for all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and which had come unto them,

The Day of Atonement is called Yom Kippur in Hebrew. In Leviticus 23:27 it is referred to in the plural by calling it a ‘Day of Atonements’, ‘Yom HaKippurim’, יוֹם הַכִּפֻּרִים. This can also be translated as a ‘Day like Purim’ because the כִּ, ‘Ki’ in כִּפֻּרִים, ‘Kippurim’ can also mean ‘like’. In Yom Kippur there are two goats, one is taken to the wilderness and thrown over a cliff top and a lot (goral, גּוֹרָל) is cast to see which is chosen to be that scape goat (Azazel in Hebrew). So both Purim and Yom Kippur have a lot, (goral, גּוֹרָל) or a Pur (פּוּר), a choice, a judgement to make. So both ‘Purim’ and ‘Yom HaKippurim’ are about judgement and choice.

A different word, but also spelt the same way, ‘pur’, (Strongs H6565 פּרר) is used to refer to the earth being severely and violently shaken, פּוֹר הִֽתְפּוֹרְרָה. We could be coming to a time of choosing very shortly and it could be in time of increasingly severe shaking. We may have a ‘Revival amidst Judgement’. An outpouring of the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) in a time of war and earthquakes. Is this now? We may all experience our own purim, a time of choices and revival, during a time of shaking where the earth is ‘clean dissolved’ (pur hitporror, פּוֹר הִֽתְפּוֹרְרָה) which actually means violently shaken.

Isaiah 24:19-20
19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved (pur, hitporrorפּוֹר ,הִֽתְפּוֹרְרָה), the earth is moved exceedingly.
רֹעָה הִֽתְרֹעֲעָה הָאָרֶץ פּוֹר הִֽתְפּוֹרְרָה אֶרֶץ מוֹט הִֽתְמוֹטְטָה אָֽרֶץ׃

20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

We could be entering into that time. Indeed I suspect that we may have already moved into it. Please read my previous posts concerning the prophecies in Haggai and Zechariah about the ‘24th day’ countdown. We may witness the Lord bringing ‘Revival amidst Judgement’! Stay Alert!

I believe that the Red horse of Revelation 6 that takes peace from the earth is already beginning to make it’s move. There shall be a lot of killing as things escalate. I have put a 1 minute video out telling my concerns. Of course it gets few hits on YouTube. I point to the ‘24th Day countdown’ in the above articles.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FieSJJpf-V8

In the book of Esther we have recorded a deliverance for the Jewish people in captivity in Persia from a NAZI like character called Haman. We are entering a similar time with a similar spirit in our governments. (Since Covid, they are moving together in Lockstep.) However on top of all that internal intrigue that went on in Esther's time we also have the prospect of War. On top of that we have severe persecution, economic collapse, famines, pestilence and earthquakes to look forward to. But the Ruach HaKodesh (Holy Spirit) is moving and the Lord is going to bring the remnant of his people out of the nations. Miracles will happen in the midst of carnage. ‘Revival’ is coming to His remnant church (congregation) which is Zion. But what is ‘Revival’?

What is ‘Revival’?

‘Revival’ is really about a move of God’s Holy Spirit that causes us to change the direction we are going in, and that change of direction is called ‘repentance’. Repentance is the fruit of any true seeds of revival. It is about ‘choice’. It is about choosing the right way. It is about truly following Yeshua. A true revival is about repentance. It is God’s goodness that brings us to repentance. ‘Revival’ can also be an increased move of God’s Holy Spirit bringing someone who already is walking with God into a higher level in their walk with Him. In both cases, ‘Revival’ is a work of God’s grace and goodness that brings us closer to Him. We should all be living a life of repentance.

Romans 2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?

I don’t believe we have that much time left before certain judgement comes upon our nations. It is already here and it is growing day by day. God is gracious but the door is closing. It is not closed yet, but it is closing. So we will have one last big ‘Revival’ for a ‘very small remnant’ that shall be gathered in.

Isaiah 1:9 Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.

The heat is on and the race to the finish line is about to commence. The fires of ‘Revival’ may soon be followed by the fires of hell. Certainly big things are coming. A bear is being awoken from its long slumber. It is being pricked and prodded in the North. A Dragon is about to make it’s move in the East.

We have choices to make. Are we a bride or a whore? Are we wise virgins or foolish? Purim is here. Choose wisely as if it was Judgement Day. If you are already walking with the Lord then He may draw you even closer during this time. We all have spots on our garments while in this flesh. Let us turn our hearts towards our Saviour with renewed vigour.

Sometimes the Holy Spirit brings revival leading to repentance individually and sometimes His Spirit moves upon a number of people. And the enemy is always at work at the very same time, sowing tares amongst the wheat or false conversions amongst the true. I believe that there are those that are truly saved during such revivals and there are others that are not, they are counterfeit. So both God and Satan can be at work at the very same time. We should therefore understand that if the Lord is doing something, the enemy is out to muddy the waters and sow his seed too. That’s just what he does.

I believe that the Lord will separate the wheat from the tares very soon. Persecution will help separate the true from the false. But deliverance is coming too.

Revival & Deliverance

The title of this blog may be a little forced, because Vashti did not bring revival. And Queen Esther did not bring revival either, but she was instrumental in the salvation of her people, the Jews, who were now captives in a foreign land. Revival or more accurately a move of God’s Holy Spirit, leads us to repentance and salvation. Vashti went one way, Esther went another way. So they represent two types of people, and by extension two types of revivals of those people. Are we Carnal or Spiritual? We need ‘Revival’ that leads to repentance and we need deliverance from our oppressors.

Our nations are actually in the midst of a gradual judgement that is gathering pace. Our nations are not what they used to be are they? Our nations are morally bankrupt, mad, poisoned and committing suicide. And our freedoms are being taken away. How many travel as they once did? We are being quarantined. Lockdowns are followed by destruction of food production and organised famines. We are being turned into captives by our own governments. Our nations are being destroyed from the inside out, before they are attacked from the outside. So like Esther, we and our people are in need of deliverance. But what kind of deliverance can we hope for? And what kind of believer are we? We all need to seek the Lord humbly, myself included.

The Day of Atonement or Yom Kippur is about ‘Spiritual deliverance’. Notice that the word ‘pur’ is in ‘Yom Kippur’. Purim is about redemption and a very real ‘Physical deliverance’ and salvation for God’s people in the very nation of our captivity. More and more we are seeing our nations turn into dystopian nightmare states. Good is now called Evil and Evil is now called Good. Truth is being cast to the ground. Darkness is falling. But God can bring the greatest light in the time of the greatest darkness. The Light shall arise upon us when our nations are in ‘gross darkness’. I know I quote some verses a lot, but it bears thinking about as things grow darker.

Isaiah 60:1-2
1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.

2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

This is a literal visible shining and glory that shall come upon the remnant. Just like what came upon Moses while he was in his flesh. It is literal visible light shining from our bodies. This is no small deal. During a ‘Revival’ God is calling us. ‘Revival’ leads to repentance which will lead to our glorification in these last of the last days!

Romans 8:30 Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

The Lord has promised to build his church or congregation. We are coming to the end of the ‘Church Age’ and amongst all the hype and deception I believe we shall have a true end time move of the Holy Spirit, a true grass roots ‘Revival’ at a time of absolute peril and the destruction of our nations. God is putting something together as our nations fall apart. The final Pentecost is not far away. It shall be a time of darkness and judgement. There will be false Christs and New Age Antichrist’s and the final Antichrist. There will be uncleanness, death and darkness and at the very same time a ‘True Revival’ and a true turning to the Lord.

Joel 2:28-30
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.

30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars <palmtrees> of smoke.

The above verse looks like a ‘Revival’ and outpouring of God’s spirit in a time of great judgement and peril. Mushroom clouds and ‘Revival’ all at the same time. Joel’s prophecy only partly fulfilled in Acts chapter 2 looks like ‘Revival’ amidst world war 3. This indeed is where things are quickly headed. The Russian bear is being stirred up by a decadent west. The outcome is much bloodshed and death. God is allowing this because our western nations are so sick He has to allow the wicked a short time to bring destruction from within and without. He will deal with them later.

We shall see ‘Revival’ but it will not save our nations. It will save some within our nations! An exodus is coming. Has your messianic leader told you? The final revival shall lead to us leaving our nations for the wilderness and promised land. Both ‘Revival and life’ along with ‘deception and death’ are coming upon us. So we sure need ‘Revival’ but gross darkness and deception go hand in hand with this ‘Final Revival’ according to Joel.

How then can we discern what a ‘True Revival’ is? I think we can all agree that we are in dire need of ‘Revival’ that leads to a closer walk with the Lord which in turn brings greater obedience and power. So ‘Revival’ should lead us to greater obedience. ‘Revival’ is the ‘awakening’ that should lead us to turning to God. The turning to God is the repentance. So ‘Revival’ is not an end in of itself but rather a means by which the Holy Spirit (Ruach HaKodesh) causes us to awaken and turn to God. Without ‘Revival’ that leads to repentance there can be no victory because victory comes through obedience. All throughout the Torah we are reminded that if we obey the Lord then He will bring victory. The choice is ours. Are we obedient, are we listening to His Voice?

Exodus 23:20-22
20 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.

21 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.

22 But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries.

This Angel is the Angel of the Lord, Yeshua. God is patient but he will not always turn the other way when we sin. Today is the day of Salvation. Are we listening? Victory and Lawlessness do not walk together as friends any more than Esther and Vashti or Mordecai and Haman. And neither does a bookish Law keeping. A true lawful obedience should be accompanied by works of faith if the Holy Spirit is leading us. If we are not led by the Spirit of God, we are not His sons!

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

The period of Purim represents a major God given victory for the Jewish people in a time of tremendous existential danger. Esther had to make a choice, to put her life on the line for her people. God worked behind the scenes through circumstances to bring about an unlikely redemption. God has not changed. And the Lord יהוה is looking for those that fear Him and have a perfect heart towards Him that He may display his power. Are we willing to put our life in jeopardy to save others?

Luke 17:33 Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it;
and whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.

Can He find such a one at this time? God help us all to put the Kingdom first.

2 Chronicles 16:9 For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth,

to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.

Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.

Is not war coming? Are we not in need of such deliverance today? Are we not experiencing the same malevolent forces in our nations and world today?

1 Peter 3:12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

God is with us if we are with Him. He is working behind the scenes to bring our deliverance. Are we walking in righteousness? It is often in a time of peril when we are ‘on the brink’ of disaster and ‘our back is against the wall’ that the difference between the righteous and the wicked is manifested and contrasted. The Lord brought the children of Israel across the red sea. He opened up a miracle deliverance in an impossible situation. The Lord has not changed.

I know I am hammering the point but I want you to remember it. ‘Revival’ should lead to obedience to God’s word and God’s Holy Spirit. Both Vashti and Esther made choices. What Spirit are we listening to? Are we Vashti of Esther? Both Queens are symbolic, representing two different kingdoms or ways of thinking. Are we worldly believers or genuine ‘true blue’? We are not told much about Vashti, we do not know her back story and the reasons why she did things. But I believe that she is symbolic of a Queen that would not obey the King. This sounds like much of what is called the church (and sadly too many that are ‘proud messianics’). What happened in the book of Esther and the courts of the capital city of Shushan is an analog to what is to happen in the Heavenly court in the last days when Satan is cast out and the Bride of Messiah is revealed. Vashti was Self willed and did what was right in her own eyes but not what was right in the eyes of her king. Esther was Spirit led because she did that was right before the Lord and for her people at the risk to her own life. Queen Vashti represents the whore church, Satan’s Babylon, and his rebellious angels while Queen Esther represents the true obedient Spirit led bride of Messiah. Satan and his host like Queen Vashti are cast down while the true bride of Messiah has the ear of her king and brings salvation to the remnant of her people.

Twins. God is doing two things at the same time

Sometimes God can be doing two things at the same time. Sometimes darkness and light can be manifested at the same time. Sometimes two babies can be born at the same time, two kingdoms birthed from the same womb. Children may look adorable at first glance, but one goes the way of Esau and the other goes the way of Jacob or Cain and Abel etc. We are living in a deceptive time, a time of increasing spiritual darkness. Two babies maybe being birthed at the same time during the same ‘Revival’. God will bring judgement upon Israel and the Church first!

Amos 9:8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom,

and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth;

saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD.

Destruction is coming to the wicked of the ‘house of Jacob’. There is much of the house of Jacob in the ‘north country’ called North America, consisting of Canada, USA and a bit of Mexico. And he shall bring us out of Australia, New Zealand and Great Britain and wherever else the 10 lost tribes of the House of Israel are scattered.

Jeremiah 23:7-8
7 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that they shall no more say, The LORD liveth, which brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt;

8 But, The LORD liveth, which brought up and which led the seed of the house of Israel out of the north country, and from all countries whither I had driven them; and they shall dwell in their own land.

Our Free lands are actually places of captivity that we were driven to by God and now the Jail bars are appearing. The Jail breaker is coming. God will bring us out, but not all of us. For the wicked shall be destroyed and sadly many lukewarm believers in the Church of Laodicea shall make their garments white through martyrdom if they are saved at all.

Revelation 3:17-20
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock (‘Revival’): if any man hear my voice, and open the door (Repentance), I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me (Communion).

Many in the Church of Laodicea that don’t truly repent may be our greatest persecutors, thinking that they are doing God service by judging us. Laodicea means ‘judgement of the people’. Judgement, δίκη, could also be rendered as ‘vengeance’, so Laodicea can also mean ‘vengeance of the people’. It appears in Acts 28:4. So many in Laodicea could become filled with a spirit of vengeance against the true bride. So there may be two revivals going on at the same time, a true one and a counterfeit Laodicean one.

Amongst all the trash and counterfeit in the midst of a ‘Revival’, there may be genuine ‘Revival’ accompanied by salvation and repentance. Repentance should not just be an entrance into the Kingdom but it should continue on as a daily way of life, we should be daily ‘walking in repentance’. So we could see some young people actually awakening from their godless stupor. Some lukewarm believers may become zealous for the Lord also. If it is a true repentance and zeal then it should lead to humble obedience to God’s Law written on the heart. This is a process that takes time. The Holy Spirit should be present and there will be signs following. And there will be a counterfeit move of Satan at the same time. Because he likes to mingle his seed amongst it all. So others will have an ‘experience’ but they wont really repent and be broken. They could become zealous with the wrong sort of zeal, the zeal of a persecutor that thinks they are right.

John 16:2 They shall put you out of the synagogues:
yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service.

Purim like Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, is about choice. Will we choose correctly? Will we choose the Lord? Will we rightly divide the word of truth? Are we one with a ‘sinful kingdom’ or are we the ‘remnant of Jacob’ that shall be saved? Is our lot with the Lord or with Azazel?

Like twins in Rebekah’s womb our nations are a mixture of good and evil. Our nations are becoming wicked cesspits of sin and wilful rebellion. But there are pockets of light amidst a sea of darkness. Haman represents Satanic evil. Haman is a descendant of Amalek through Agag. Haman represents the forces of Evil, especially the elites of the world that are dead set to destroy God’s people if they can. The spirit of Haman and his ilk may destroy America and the western world but he wont destroy the ‘Israel of God’ if we are listening to the Lord.

Sadly our churches have gone the broad way to destruction for the most part. Many lukewarm believers made their worldly choices years ago and now they are too blind and too deaf to even hear the voice of the Lord. Then there are some ‘Torah keepers’ that are too proud to enjoy the company of Moses, the humblest man on earth. Or they are too self satisfied to enjoy the presence of King David who confessed in Psalms 40:12, “mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.”

So let us humbly make our choices according to the Light of God’s word. Let us keep our head down in humility but let us also lift up our head heavenward in hope and prayer. Hoping always for the best, praying for others no matter how we are treated. It’s far easier for the flesh to be puffed up and proud than humble and dependant upon God. I know it hurts to have a beating heart. If we have a heart we need to guard it too. We need to be wise and not give what is holy to dogs. But we need to pray for opportunities to be kind and show the love of Messiah in whatever time is left to those who need it. Many hearts are growing cold, but not all. Some folks are going to turn to the Lord soon as they see the darkness descend they will seek the Lord. Not all, but some.

There is a time to feast and a time to fast, but it’s always a time to cast in our ‘lot’ (pur) with the Lord and obey Him from the heart. We shall all see miracles soon because we shall all need them if we are to survive. We are going home soon one way or another. The 144,000 will soon rise and be put to work in the harvest. Zion will soon leave our shattered nations in the 2nd Exodus. And the Holy Spirit is already moving. Things are quickening, both for good and for evil. So the pace of judgement and salvation of the remnant will increase along with the earthquakes and wars and rumours of wars. God is moving and so is the Devil. Pray always. Don’t be drunk on wine or a ‘false revival’. A ‘true revival’ is here too. Yeshua is coming soon.

Luke 21:34-36
34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

Wicked Elites leading mankind to their deaths

Esau hated Jacob and plotted his destruction. A remnant of Esau is saved, just like Jacob. So we cannot blame our ancestry for our choices. Esau is the west, not the Arab, which is Ishmael etc. The western elites are plotting the demise of Jacob and they want control over Jerusalem in the spirit of Antichrist. They are executing their plan to destroy our nations. Amalek comes from Esau. And Agag comes from Amalek. And Haman comes from Agag. Haman hung on his own gallows by the intervention of faithful Esther and the grace of God. The only way we will not hang on the Elites’ gallows is if we are walking in repentance and like Esther have the ear of the King of Heaven, Yeshua. Are we humbly walking in Righteousness, that is the key? Eventually time runs out for the godless Elites that are running this world into the ground. But we have a time of trial coming first. Oh God ‘Revive Us’! The enemy is at the door, help us to hear your voice when you knock Yeshua. Let judgement fall where it will but may we be counted worthy to escape all these things and stand before you, Luke 21:36. Lord please bring us home, we are your servants. Save us from the wicked that speak lies. Save us. Let us speak your word with power.

Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

The wicked Elites and wicked nations headed by Edom have taken council together against God’s people. If we are walking in obedience then God hears our voices. We are His Sons and Daughters. We can petition Him. He is our Father!

Psalms 83:1-18
1 A Song or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
2 For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
3 They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
4 They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
5 For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
6 The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
7 Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
8 Assur also is joined with them: they have holpen the children of Lot. Selah.

9 Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
10 Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
12 Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.

13 O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
14 As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
15 So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
16 Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
17 Let them be confounded and troubled for ever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.

The Door of the Ark is open even in War

God will deal with the wicked Elites in His time. Yeshua is in control not them. Maybe at present you are not able to minister. I struggle to find hungry souls too. But it’s coming. God is going to save souls. He is already at work. There is a remnant that shall be saved, not only from amongst Israel and the lost tribes but also amongst the nations. Much of Israel will be cut off due to wilful rebellion. The Lord will have a full house though even if we have to go into the highways and byways to find them.

Although the door of the Ark of Salvation is closing, it is not closed yet. Yeshua still says...

Matthew 11:28-30
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Yeshua’s yoke is easy. The Torah is actually light. Yeshua is still the good shepherd that searches for His sheep. Yeshua is still the way, the truth and the life, John 14:6.

Rise of the Antichrist

God is releasing judgements upon the nations. Natural disasters are increasing. People are being killed via vaccines. And now nations are being stirred to fight in Europe and elsewhere. They are being set up for war. There are many hurts amongst many nations including Russia. The Russians are just people like everyone else, they can do good and they can do evil. This is a proud and godless generation. All the nations have forgotten God to a large degree. But there are believers even in Russia too. In Russia, like other nations, there is some good and much that is not good, and every shade in between. In some ways it’s more moral than the once Christian United States. America has pockets of believers amidst a godless, porn addicted, sodomitish, drug infested wasteland. I believe Russia is coming. God has some scores to settle. We need to be prayerful.

Russia is a permanent member of the United Nations security council along with America, Great Britain, France and China! Putin works for the same globalists that uncle Sam does. They work together at the top. The welfare of their own people is not their primary concern. Their main aim is to bring the Antichrist to power. Their main enemy is Almighty God. They oppose Yeshua HaMashiach. They oppose the true Church, the called out blood bought followers of Yeshua.

Wars are manufactured. They are planned many years in advance. Our world leaders are already working together with globalist aims, Covid should be evidence enough of that. Putin is about to use Russia and destroy much of its own manhood in a useless war that will exhaust it and Europe and destroy America as we know it. That’s how I suspect it’s unfolding.

What will be gained by all this mayhem? The wars are creating the chaos from which the Antichrist shall arise with a false healing under his blasphemous wings. He will arise as the ‘Mr Fix it’ with the sweet talk that will give the remaining people hope. The bible says that he will arise through ‘flatteries’, Daniel 11:21, 11:32, 11:34. He will be so seemingly benign, harmless and affable, Mr Nice Guy, at least initially. Many of the Jews will accept him, the Muslims will love him, the greenies will adore him and the godless will accept him because he will appear to have the answers. But he speaks with a forked tongue.

So the war machines of the world will be used to destroy manhood in Russia, Europe and America and elsewhere. The west has goaded Russia and the people of Russia are taking the bate and with some justification. Americans took the bate of 9-11. Russia has been manipulated also. Russia will no doubt invade the USA in my opinion, and China will take Australia. We shall see.

Once the Antichrist has risen to power from the ashes of war, he shall have his own military given to him by the nations that are so relieved to have such a seemingly ‘benevolent’ leader. Remember he rises through sweet talk and flattery. He shall consolidate his power and have 10 Kings under him according to Daniel and Revelation. These are the 10 horns or 10 toes prophecies that many are familiar with. We may see this play out very shortly! In all this mayhem, God will also be saving souls as people start awakening to God and to the times that they are living in.

At the moment Russia is being primed to fight. China will do her part. The killing machine wont stop until people don’t want to hate and kill anymore. The killing wont stop until people would rather die than kill their brother. The killing wont stop until God has executed his vengeance on a proud nation and people that wont listen to Him. We shall leave the ‘north country’ called north America if we survive the judgement. We may leave the wreckage of our proud and godless nations and be safe if we humble ourselves. Come to the fountain now. Come to Yeshua.

Hope for a Fatherless Generation

Our nations have departed from Yeshua. They do not fear God. They are void of wisdom, they have no understanding. They do not know the Father! Even within the church it was said of old by the apostle Paul...

I Corinthians 4:15
For though ye have ten thousand instructors in Christ,

yet have ye not many fathers:

for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

Father's beget children. Why is there such impotence in the gospel?

The Church needs real men and real ‘spiritual fathers’. They are a scarce breed in this generation. Sadly many ‘earthly fathers’ shall be lost soon in a cold and calculated collapse of civilisation. Wars, just like guns and ammunition are manufactured. The sad reality is that people are being manipulated into their own genocide the world over. Because the nations refused the Father and His Son from Heaven He is giving them Leaders that will lead their people to death. Yeshua came to bring us life but if we refuse then all we have left is death.

Proverbs 8:36 But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul:

all they that hate me love death.

The leaders of the nations of the world are shepherding their people into wars where everybody loses. Death is coming. In the coming wars nobody really wins and much is destroyed. It is tragic. Husbands are leaving their loving wives and children to put on uniforms to kill other husbands who have also left their wives and children. Young men kiss their girlfriends goodbye and they will never see them again.

Isaiah 13:12-13
12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of Ophir. 13 Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the LORD of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger.

There will only be a few men left standing in our nations, they will be precious like fine gold. Some of the best will be killed first. Soon there shall only be a few young men, husbands and fathers amongst a sea of many struggling mothers in Russia and the rest of the world. Many boys and girls shall lose their loving fathers. Daddy isn’t coming home. It is a tragedy. Businesses shall shut down because all the capable men that made them function are gone to war, gone forever. Economies will be shattered the world over. In this war nobody wins. Everybody loses. Death is coming. War, Pestilence, Famine, Economic failure, natural disasters and ‘fatherlessness’ comes to a godless or paganised lukewarm christian generation. It’s not about Ukraine or anything, its about death. Death the world over. It’s the time of the grim reaper. It’s a culling. Its a reaping of the fields. God have mercy. We need ‘true spiritual fathers’ in this ‘fatherless generation’. We greatly need the ministry of the Holy Spirit.

Malachi 4:6 And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.

Or as the New Testament says so clearly…

Luke 1:17 And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

God is about to ‘make ready a people prepared for the Lord’. These are the days of Elijah! God will soon bring Zion home. So even in this demonic madness within a ‘Fatherless Generation’ Yeshua still has His arms open for a little bit longer.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

The killing will end when people have had enough. That may take some time. The Red Horse has only just begun it’s rampage. War will quickly escalate. Friendly neighbourly feelings will give way to ‘Angst’. Hate shall be mingled with Patriotism. Peoples opinions will harden even as their hearts turn to stone. Cold logic based on hurt and half truths and government misinformation shall overrule kindness and natural affection. Love will grow cold in Russia and the west. The spirit of Haman is working hard. The Gallows are erected. In this time of ‘wars and rumours of wars’ God will be saving some souls that could come no other way.

The Holy Spirit of Almighty God the Father is moving. Let us, be wise like Queen Esther, who put her life on the line to gain the ear of the King, even the King of Heaven. Save us! Lord ‘Revive us’ and let us gather in the wheat. Let us salvage what can be saved in our nations. Lord have mercy, Lord save us. And please Holy Father, let Zion go home soon. May your Kingdom Come.

Even So Come Lord Yeshua.
The grace of our Lord Yeshua be with the ‘Israel of God’.

Shalom & Love in Yeshua
