Return of the Man-Child (5)  (audio)  David Eells – 4/2/25  We've been exploring what it means that everything that happened in the Gospels and in the Book of Acts is going to happen again, except it will be on a worldwide scale, and the cast of characters will be multiplied. So we've been looking at the characters to see what they will do in their corporate bodies in our day. We need prayer.   Father, in the name of Jesus, we ask You to be with us this day, to open our understanding, to lead us, to guide us, to give words of wisdom and knowledge that will reveal Your Will to us. Thank You so much, Father. You are our guide, our wisdom, and we thank You so much for leading us in this Bible study. Amen  Let's back up to where we left off. We saw that Herod, as a type of the Beast, was attempting to destroy the Man-child and actually did murder many “man-children” in Bethlehem (which means “the house of food”). We also saw that, as a type and shadow, the Lord told us, A voice was heard in Ramah, Weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; And she would not be comforted because they are not (Mat.2:18). When we were looking at the text in Jeremiah 31:15-20, the words “they are not” did not mean physical death. It meant spiritual death because Rachel's children had been taken into Babylonish captivity. They were in bondage to the Beast, and they were not serving God but serving the Beast. The Beast was their head and ruler; it was ruling over them. (Rom.8:13) For if ye live after the flesh, ye must die; but if by the Spirit ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live. (14) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. So spiritual death is definitely what is being pointed out here in this text. There was no physical death involved in the original text of Jeremiah. It's very interesting that, in all of our lives, the Beast has to die. If it does not die, we are not free to follow the Lord.  The very next two verses give us more clues. (Mat.2:19) But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying, (20) Arise and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead that sought the young child's life. Notice again the word “they,” meaning more than one person. That may point to the fact that Herod represents in our day a corporate body, but we know from this that Jesus was ready to come out of His wilderness and start His ministry when Herod, the Beast who ruled, was dead. I believe that's a type and shadow for us in our day.   It goes on to say, And he arose and took the young child (Note that He is still being called a “young child,” the same as He was called when the wise men came.) and his mother, and came into the land of Israel (Mat.2:21). He had to come out of His wilderness to do that. He came from Egypt, a type of the world, through the Sinai Peninsula and the wilderness there, and into the land of Israel. And Jesus was coming out of His wilderness from Chapter 4:1 on down, where He came from His personal wilderness to His ministry. This may be the exact same type. We noticed that Moses, David, and Jesus all had a perfect parallel.   (Mat.2:22) But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither; and being warned [of God] in a dream, he withdrew into the parts of Galilee, (23) and came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, that he should be called a Nazarene. This is rather interesting. We've seen many revelations about a baby being born in a type of the Man-child, yet the baby was born very mature and alert and grew up very quickly. We've seen quite a few of those and I think we see in this text that this is true. It refers to a “young child” in verse 21, and it's still talking about that young child for the next two verses.  But immediately following this, it says, And in those days cometh John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea (Mat.3:1). That's intriguing; what happened to all those years in between? John the Baptist was only six months older than Jesus, so in Matthew 3:1, Jesus had to be almost 30 years old. You could not start your public ministry to the congregation until you were 30. That was the law. The text jumps from Jesus as a young child all the way to “in those days” with John the Baptist starting his ministry at age 30, and it makes you think, “Well, that Man-child must have grown-up very quickly.” Do you suppose this was a type and shadow of what is going to happen in our day? That the Man-child will be birthed and then immediately be caught up to the throne? In Revelation 12:5, the baby was born and then he was caught up to the throne of God; then he was leading the woman through the wilderness, which appears pretty fast. Clearly, God is shortening the time span that it takes because we don't have a lot of time for Jesus in the Man-child to grow up.  At any rate, John the Baptist's ministry was very short, starting when he was 30 years old. Six months later, Jesus was anointed to preach the Isaiah 61 anointing message, and He was 30 years old, so Matthew 3 is actually between when John the Baptist began his ministry and when Jesus began His. (Mat.3:1) And in those days cometh John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, saying, (2) Repent ye; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. That was proven by the great signs and wonders that God did in the midst of them, to show them that the Kingdom of Heaven was at hand. In other words, the Kingdom where God rules and where He reigns over the curse, over the devil, and over the flesh was at hand. It's obvious where the Kingdom of God rules because He does signs and wonders.  John the Baptist had a relatively simple ministry, which was the preaching of repentance. It did not seem that he ever went into much deep doctrine. He preached, “turning from your sins,” yet he had a very anointed ministry and he was, according to Jesus, the greatest of the Old Testament teachers “born of women” (Matthew 11:7). Jesus also said he that is but little in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he (Mat.11:11), meaning John the Baptist was the greatest of the old order ministers before the former rain came. Jesus came with the former rain, and that brought the Kingdom. So John was the greatest born of women up until that time.  I believe that we have just such a corporate body of preachers coming right now, who will probably be considered the greatest from among the former rain, before the latter rain comes, because now the former rain is the old order and we're coming to the latter rain. Some of you are seeing this program down the road, and all this is history, but at the point we are now, this revival is starting with the John the Baptist ministry and is yet to happen. We're on the very brink of it, and it is going to be a corporate body of people around the world who are coming to prepare the way for the coming of the Lord. (Mat.3:3) For this is he that was spoken of through Isaiah the prophet, saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ye ready the way of the Lord, Make his paths straight. Obviously, without repentance, you cannot do that. If you want the Lord to live in you, it will not happen without repentance. John the Baptist was preparing hearts to receive the Lord Jesus and to receive the Man-child in our day. History is repeating.  (Mat.3:4) Now John himself had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his food was locusts and wild honey. (5) Then went out unto him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about the Jordan. This sounds like a great revival, doesn't it? I did learn that “all” was not all because the Lord said that the Pharisees and the Sadducees rejected for themselves the counsel of John, being not baptized of him (Luk.7:30). So “all” here means all of the elect, not all of the people. The Jews understood that very well because they believed in election. They believed that they were the elect people, the “chosen” (which is the same word, eklektos), people of God, and that God did not choose anyone outside of them.  Well, it's still the same today. (Mat.22:14) For many are called, but few chosen. God does call “many” unto Him, but not all are called, and of those whom He calls, He still chooses only those who bear fruit. The first thing people need is repentance, and I believe that we will see this preaching of repentance through some very anointed men of God, men who have the former rain anointing. And it's going to start a great revival, as in this passage where you see people coming out of their “churches” and going into the wilderness to meet John. (Mat.3:6) And they were baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. That's a good sign of repentance, when people confess their sins. Every great revival starts out that way, and a great anointing falls on people to be grieved over their sinfulness and to repent and confess their sins.  (Mat.3:7) But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said unto them, Ye offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? John was very hard on their preachers, wasn't he? That got him in a lot of trouble – and Jesus, as well. No doubt that the same exact thing is going to happen in our day because the leadership of the churches has been leading them astray for a long, long time. (Mat.3:8) Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of repentance: (9) and think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. Notice that it says we are to bring forth fruits. It hasn't been very long since I was confronted by a preacher who told me that he had repented of various abominable things that he was doing. He said that he had gone to God and asked God to forgive him, and he was forgiven. I said, “Well, that's fine, but that's not repentance because repentance is changing, and you're still in the middle of a crime spree.” So you have to change your mind because that's what “repentance” means; it means “to turn and go the other way.” That preacher didn't know what repentance was because he was not doing it. That's what John is saying here: “Bring forth fruit worthy of repentance.” There has to be fruit of repentance.  There has to be fruit showing in your actions that you are changing your mind, and John demanded that, even of these religious leaders. Obviously, some of them put on a show for the people. (Mat.3:10) And even now the axe lieth at the root of the trees … Amen! That was true in John's ministry, and it will be true in ministries today, that the axe is at the root of the trees. By Matthew 13, Jesus was saying that those religious leaders were reprobated, saying, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but unto them it is not given (Mat.13:11); and that He had blinded their eyes (Matthew 13:13). (Mat.3:10) And even now the axe lieth at the root of the trees: every tree therefore that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.  (Mat.3:11) I indeed baptize you in water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and [in] fire. And Jesus did just that; He brought the baptism of the Holy Spirit and was the first one of the former rain to receive, according to type, the baptism of the Holy Spirit. In fact, He received it in the verses immediately following these that we're studying. (Mat.3:12) Whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor (The fan was used to blow away the chaff, which was useless, and to leave the heavier grain, which is the fruit that God was after.); and he will gather his wheat into the garner, but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire. The chaff represents the old man, the carnal man, the fiery trials that we go through to burn up the old man and leave nothing but the spiritual man. Notice that John preached to “make His paths straight” and here Jesus is cleansing the people.  There is a text that speaks of this differently. (Mal.3:1) Behold, I send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, will suddenly come to his temple (That represented Jesus, but it also represents the Manchild because this is a repetition of history. The word “temple” here means His body. (Heb.10:5) A body didst thou prepare for me.); and the messenger of the covenant, whom ye desire, behold, he cometh, saith the Lord of hosts. (Mal.3:2) But who can abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiner's fire (That is the fire to burn up the chaff.), and like fullers' soap: (3) and he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi. Remember, the sons of Levi were the only ones who did not bow to the golden calf, the image of the Beast. They were the true ministers of the sanctuary.  He also said that He had called us to be a kingdom of priests (Exodus 19:6), so really all of God's true people are priests because we have an offering of fire to bring forth and we present our bodies as a living sacrifice on that altar of the fiery trial. That is the crucified life. That is what Jesus called taking up your cross and following Him, for you to be His disciple (Matthew 16:24). (Mal.3:3) And he will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and he will purify the sons of Levi, and refine them as gold and silver; and they shall offer unto the Lord offerings in righteousness. (4) Then shall the offering of Judah and Jerusalem be pleasant unto the Lord, as in the days of old, and as in ancient years. For our day, He's talking about New Testament spiritual Judah and Israel and the New Jerusalem.   (Mal.3:5) And I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against the false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the sojourner [from his right,] and fear not me, saith the Lord of hosts. God is going to judge quickly those hanging around His people who are walking in their sinfulness. He will be very protective of His holy Church in these days with Ananias and Sapphira-like judgments on people trying to sneak in, acting as though they are Christians while they are not. So far, it's been difficult to keep that from happening, but the Lord says that He will put an end to it. Praise God! He is going to have a holy Church.  (Mat.3:13) Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to the Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. (14) But John would have hindered him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? (15) But Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer [it] now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffereth him. Obviously, we need to be baptized, or put to death, by the washing of the water of the Word (Ephesians 5:26), a crucifixion of the old man, which is what it's all about. It behooves us to do this. Jesus went through this before He came to His anointing, which is very important. (Mat.3:16) And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway from the water: and lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him; (17) and lo, a voice out of the heavens, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Jesus was baptized in the Spirit here; He was anointed in order to start His ministry.   And we're also told this in (Luk.1:31) Behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. (32) He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Most High: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: (33) and he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. So Jesus came to be anointed to take David's throne. That's what this anointing was about; it was the king's anointing. All the kings received this anointing when they took their position. Right after Jesus was filled with the Spirit and before going into His wilderness, it says, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor (Luk.4:18). Jesus was 30 years old when this happened. This anointing of the Spirit started His public ministry and goes right along with history.  Joseph was 30 years old, according to Genesis 41:46, when he stood before Pharaoh and received the kingdom, and David was 30 years old when he began his ministry, which is very interesting. All these types of the Man-child were 30 years old. (2Sa.5:3) So all the elders of Israel came to the king to Hebron; and king David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the Lord: and they anointed David king over Israel. (4) David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years. Forty is the number of tribulation. (5) In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months; and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty and three years over all Israel and Judah. Jesus came to sit on David's throne. Jesus was anointed King of kings and He reigned over the true tribes of Israel. The apostate tribes did not recognize Him, but the true tribes did. Those who were born of God recognized Him immediately. He merely walked by His disciples and said, “Come, follow Me,” and they dropped their nets, left their business, left everything, and walked after Him. Now that's a strong calling! They just followed Him.  Well, what was the first thing that David did after he was anointed? (2Sa.5:6) And the king and his men went to Jerusalem … It wasn't called Jerusalem then. (1Ch.11:4) And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (the same is Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there. It wasn't called Jerusalem until they conquered it. (2Sa.5:6) And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites (which means “to trample down” or “trodden under foot”), the inhabitants of the land, who spake unto David, saying, Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither; thinking, David cannot come in hither. Jerusalem had to be conquered before it could be called Jerusalem, before it could be Zion. It was in the hands of the pagans, in the hands of the old man, the Jebusite. We know from Revelation that Jerusalem is the Bride, but she did not start out as the Bride; she started out as a pagan, as an unbeliever, and was converted and became the Bride. Jerusalem, before David conquered it, was Jebus.  David's job was to take Jerusalem, to show his men how to conquer and take Jerusalem. With the coming of the Man-child ministry, which is also a Davidic ministry, the first thing that's going to happen is that they'll be conquering Jebus. They're going to raise up Jerusalem again – not old Jerusalem; they're going to raise up New Jerusalem. Paul spoke about it in Hebrews 12, but then there was a great falling away, and this place represented holiness, the place of safety, the Bride. It represented the only place the Beast could not conquer, and it represented the Philadelphia church because it was the only one that escaped the hour of trial from the Beast kingdom. Here, we see that the Jebusites were telling David, “You'd better get rid of the blind and the lame, or you can't come here.” In other words, nobody who is blind and lame can take Zion. It represents the Bride, who is not blind and lame. She is spotless and blemishless because she has overcome some things, especially being lame, which represents being crippled or not being able to walk right with the Lord. And she has overcome being blind, which represents not being able to see, understand, or discern the truths of God.  So they said, Except thou take away the blind and the lame, thou shalt not come in hither; thinking, David cannot come in hither (2Sa.5:6). You know, some people do not think it's possible and, in fact, there are a lot of preachers right now who are saying that it's not possible for you to be an overcomer. They say that you just have to settle for being “a sinner saved by grace.” The old man does not think that it's possible for you to conquer him and have this place become Zion, the holy city. (2Sa.5:7) Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David. (8) And David said on that day, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites, let him get up to the watercourse, and [smite] the lame and the blind, that are hated of David's soul … The lame and the blind represent the apostates. Of course, the Jebusite represents the old man, and David and his men represent the spiritual man who must conquer Zion. We've been called to do that, and David is telling them that the way to do it is to “get up to the watercourse and smite the lame and the blind.” Put to death the old apostasy in your life. Two rivers fed Jerusalem, and David's men used those rivers to get into Jerusalem.  The place of the watercourses was where the water drained out of Jerusalem, akin to the sewer system. Instead of scaling the walls, they could go up the sewer. They probably smelled pretty bad by the time they got in there to take their sword and go to work, but that's what he was saying. Though most of this was probably river water, they still had to go against the current that was coming out of Jebus, so they were “going against the flow,” so to speak. And that's the way it is with us. Everything we do is contrary to the world: what they think is the right way, we think is the wrong way; what they think is up, we think is down. If we humble ourselves, God will exalt us. At any rate, David was teaching them that the way to conquer the city and the lame and the blind was through the water. (2Sa.5:8) … Wherefore they say, There are the blind and the lame; he cannot come into the house.  (2Sa.5:9) And David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the city of David. And David built round about from Millo and inward. He is talking about the ramparts of Jerusalem, so David built Jerusalem. He was the one who started building the “New Jerusalem” at that point. Jesus was doing the same thing. What Paul described with, ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem (Heb.12:22) … and to the spirits of just men made perfect (23), was what Jesus was building. I've shared with you a revelation the Lord gave me many years ago, where He showed me the tower in the midst of what was depicted as the New Jerusalem and He was giving it to me, revealing to me that my ministry was to build this tower. I found that Micah 4:8 spoke of Jerusalem as “the tower of the flock,” and it was the kind of tower that they actually built in those days in the midst of those cities to preserve them from invading beast armies. Jerusalem was just that; it was a place of safety where, if beasts invaded, whether from Babylon or Assyria, the people could flee into the broad walls and be protected.  David was building the tower of the flock here. (2Sa.5:10) And David waxed greater and greater; for the Lord, the God of hosts, was with him. I have found this language referring to only two people in the Scriptures, where it says, “waxed greater and greater.” It spoke of David, and it spoke of Mordecai, whose name means “little man” or “man-child.” Mordecai was the same type as David; both of them were the Man-child. Mordecai's job was to raise up the Bride, Esther, and save the people of God from the Beast, Haman. Basically, this is the same thing that David did. He raised up the Bride, Jerusalem, and defended the people from one of the Beasts, the Philistines. David's first job was to conquer the Jebusites and take their city away.  In thinking about this, I'd like to share with you a revelation we received concerning the same thing. This is Pamela Orr's revelation, and she received it in January 2010. My notes are in parentheses.  In a dream, I was in a house that is safe and secure. I have no desire or plans to leave this house. (Pamela is a part of our broader UBM Fellowship safe-house, but also, I believe that this is referring to Zion, and she had no plans to leave.) To my amazement, though, there are people leaving. … I'm given to know that there are many who do not return. (This is necessary because the sons of perdition and the Jezebels and the rest of the tares who have come in amongst God's people cannot be a part of this Zion, as I will show you shortly. The only people who entered Zion were the ones who conquered the lame and the blind, and it became Zion, the holy city, because they were the only people there. The Jebusites were driven out. The carnal Jebusites are leaving Jebus so that it may become Zion. They're being conquered. Zion is the Bride. Praise the Lord!   I remember her brother Mark Fritz, who is a part of our fellowship, asked the Lord when he first met us about the church he was currently attending. God answered that it was Pergamum, which was the third church of Revelation that was caught up in the Nicolaitan error. So Mark asked the Lord about UBM, and the Lord said, “The sixth church.” So he counted and found out that the sixth church was the Philadelphia church, which is the Bride, the one that escapes the hour of trial under the dominion of the Beast, and the name means “the love of the brethren.”)  There are locks on this house, a whole row of them, probably seven or more, but I didn't count them. (This is a very secure place, like Zion, which was called “the stronghold of Zion.” We're all supposed to be climbing Mount Zion to enter into the presence of the King. The throne is on Mount Zion; the Temple is on Mount Zion; His presence is there.) These locks are high up in the wall. We can't touch them or tamper with them; they are a fixture of the house. (The key to enter is high up with God. It is not with man.) Some, if not all, of these locks are specific to profiles. For example, there is the ‘age 18-and-over' lock. I'm given to know that when a certain lock turns over, then no one fitting this profile will ever again be allowed to enter the house. (I thought about that and felt that the Lord was saying that God gives more grace to the immature and innocent. He does not impute iniquity to them, but the further they go in their walk, the more they are held accountable. (Luk.12:48) to whomsoever much is given, of him shall much be required, so when people become accountable and they do not walk in their accountability, then they will be out of there. They will not have a position in that house.)  As I watch these locks turn, as if of their own accord, I realize that when the final lock has been turned, no one else will be allowed to enter. (That's the way it is with spiritual Zion, folks. Many years ago, I saw in a vision our ministry starting in Pensacola as a Zion, the Tower of the Flock, the Bride. I know that this is going on around the world with people who are desiring earnestly to be obedient to the Scriptures, live the crucified life before their Lord, and walk in the grace of God. (Mic.4:8) And thou, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, yea, the former dominion shall come … When David took Jebus and it became the stronghold of Zion, the City of David, that was their stronghold. That was where the dominion started, right there. It said the former dominion was going to return to Zion, the Tower of the Flock, the Kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem. Note that the former dominion is not going to return to Jerusalem, but it's going to return to the daughter of Jerusalem or, in other words, to New Jerusalem. God is once again, in our day, going to raise up a David who will raise up Zion once more as the stronghold, the Bride.)  (In this New Jerusalem Zion, the wicked were not allowed, as Scripture says. (Isa.52:1) Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion (So it is coming to its former dominion.); put on thy beautiful garments (These garments are righteousness, purity and holiness.), O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. A New Jerusalem is started that does not allow any of the wicked. You can only do that with a spiritual city. In any physical city, you're going to have all kinds of people there, some of them good, some of them bad. But in this spiritual city, there will not be anybody unclean. That's what these locks are all about; they're to find out who is walking in purity and to keep out the rest. As I said, with knowledge comes responsibility, so the further you go, the more that's expected of you. When David first became king as a type of the Man-child, he taught his overcomers how to take the stronghold of Jebus from the Jebusites, representing the old man. Then Jebus became Zion, the City of David, a type of the Bride following the Man-child at the beginning of the Tribulation.)  (Father is cleaning house and will keep the evil ones out of His safe-house. Praise the Lord! As John said, He that hath the bride is the bridegroom (Joh.3:29). Soon, many, by their own evil nature, will not want to associate with the righteous for fear of alienating their Beast associations. God is separating here, and He is going to make His heavenly Zion a place where only the righteous will want to go. They will have had to conquer the lame and the blind to get there. They will have had to overcome. David's mighty men were sent by David to take Zion, and they took it. Jesus did the same thing with the disciples He raised up, who were His mighty men. Praise God!)  Speaking of entering this safe-house, people are entering. (The righteous are entering because they are the only ones who can come into this safe-house, the New Jerusalem.) Others are trying to enter, but the “bad guys” don't seem to make it past the door. (Praise the Lord! That is awesome. This is just like Ananias and Sapphira; they tried to enter, but God took them out.) And each bad guy gets done-in by the next bad guy. The bad guys get progressively worse, too. (2 Timothy 3 speaks about how bad the Church is going to get in our day. Verses 1 through 6 are pretty rough, and then it says, But evil men and impostors (KJV: “seducers”) shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived (2Ti.3:13). This is true in the Church today because that's what he was referring to. He wasn't talking about the world.) The second-to-last bad guy is sort of a handicapped or perverted or dwarflike individual with short little legs like tree trunks. (Here is a perverted dwarf. I see one thing here, spiritually speaking: those who do not measure up to the stature of the fruit of Christ are not going to be permitted in Zion.)  This is where it gets awful. The final bad guy (the Beast) begins to compress, squeeze, or fold this dwarf-like individual until he murders him. (Spiritually speaking, those who have not yet experienced the crucified life will have help from the Beast to go to their cross and to manifest death-to-self. Those who do not measure up will need crucifixion in the world. How do we grow up into Christ? Jesus said, He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it (Mat.10:39). You do not gain your life unless you lose your life, so growing up is a matter of the crucified life. If we do not accept it, we cannot grow up. If we do not accept it, we cannot put away the blindness and the lameness and cannot expect to go into Zion. Remember, we are told, for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean (Isa.52:1).) The evil nature of this final bad guy was beyond description. (That is the Beast.) I can only say that I could almost feel this individual's sick joy and satisfaction in pressing the life out of the other poor sucker. (She is talking about the apostate Christians, I believe. Many of the apostate Christians are going to be saved because of the crucifixion that the Lord puts them in. His fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor; and … the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire (Mat.3:12), but He will have something in the midst of that which will be holy and precious.)   (Not everyone will be sanctified. Some people just get worse in tribulation. One thing that helps people to be able to come to Zion in the midst of tribulation is to know what God is doing. He is doing something for them. He is putting to death their old flesh, which cannot enter the Kingdom. By the Word of God, you learn how to cooperate with God, and then you see that this is a victory, not a failure. If the Church receives a lot of this prosperity doctrine and they do not believe that they are ever going to go through anything, any trouble, any tribulation, then these things come upon them as a shock, and they think that God has forsaken them. They are tempted to fall, and many do. So there has to be knowledge for the people to understand that God is doing a good thing with them and that they need to go through this, that they're privileged to go through this, and that they can have eternal life in the Kingdom. That's what the Man-child is coming to do; that's what Jesus came to do. Spiritually speaking, that's what David was doing. He was teaching men how to overcome the blind and the lame, teaching them how to take Jebus.) Even though I was horrified and sickened at the depravity, I was still safe in the (UBM) house. (Praise the Lord! Because God has a safe-house. He really does! I know that many people think that this is heresy, but that's not true. God has His safe-house.)  This same story is in 1 Chronicles. (1Ch.11:4) And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem (the same is Jebus); and the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, were there. (5) And the inhabitants of Jebus said to David, Thou shalt not come in hither. Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion; the same is the city of David. (6) And David said, Whosoever smiteth the Jebusites first shall be chief and captain. And Joab the son of Zeruiah went up first, and was made chief. (7) And David dwelt in the stronghold; therefore they called it the city of David. (8) And he built the city round about, from Millo even round about; and Joab repaired the rest of the city. (9) And David waxed greater and greater; for the Lord of hosts was with him.  Yes, and what was the next thing David did? He brought the Ark of the Covenant. (1Ch.13:3) And let us bring again the ark of our God to us: for we sought not unto it in the days of Saul. The Israelites had been following after the flesh of Saul. That's why they got destroyed, and that's why Saul died. But David said, “No, we have to follow the Ark of the Covenant.” (1Ch.15:1) And [David] made him houses in the city of David; and he prepared a place for the ark of God, and pitched for it a tent. The word for “tent” is the same word for “tabernacle.” (2) Then David said, None ought to carry the ark of God but the Levites … Absolutely! Who else can carry the presence of God but the priests of God who have offered their bodies as living sacrifices? They are the ones who are holy; they are the ones who are the temple of God.  If you read further, it says, And they brought in the ark of God, and set it in the midst of the tent that David had pitched for it (1Ch.16:1). We know that God said He was going to raise up again this tabernacle. (Act.15:14) Symeon hath rehearsed how first God visited the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name. (15) And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written, (16) After these things I will return, And I will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen; And I will build again the ruins thereof, And I will set it up: (17) That the residue of men may seek after the Lord, And all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called. So now we're talking about raising up a tabernacle of David, which represents the portable temple, for the wilderness, but also the portable temple of the Church. Once again, we see that there is a David coming for the Church, and that's the Lord Jesus Himself, Who is the Son of David, Who was sitting upon His throne.  But the Bible also says, David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel (Jer.33:17). There is a body in whom the Lord Jesus comes. The Son of Man came in the son of David 2000 years ago, and the Son of Man is coming in a spiritual Son of David today, a corporate Body called the Man-child ministry. Jesus is going to minister to His people, to raise up, once again, the Bride, the New Jerusalem. “He that hath the bride is the bridegroom,” as John said when he pointed at Jesus. He will raise up the Bride, the New Jerusalem, which is protected from the Assyrian Beast. When the Beast tried to conquer Jerusalem, God killed 185,000 of them and they left it alone (2 Kings 19:35). Folks, I tell you, the same thing is going to happen again. God is going to protect His Bride.  For instance, in the Book of Esther, there was the Bride, and there were also the people who were threatened by the Beast. Haman, the Beast, had been given authority to destroy the people of God (Esther 2:10-11), but Mordecai and Esther had been given authority to save the people of God (Esther 8:8). There were two contrary commands given, but they have their purpose and that is to make us decide whom we are going to serve, the Lord or the Beast.  Rachel's children fell into captivity of the Beast, and they were counted as dead, like the parable in Matthew 2:18, of the children of Bethlehem. It physically happened, but it was also a parable of things to come. In our day, many people are going to follow the Beast. They will take the mark of the Beast, which is a sign of his ownership, and these people will die. They will not bear the fruit of the Man-child, as Jesus did. Once again, we see that God is just going to repeat history, and Matthew 2 is going to be fulfilled, as well as Matthew 3. All the types of the Man-child are running in perfect parallel. Joseph was 30 years old, Jesus was 30 years old and David was 30 years old when they started their ministries, and they basically had the same job to do. It was shown in a slightly different parable each time, but it was the same job to be done.  Now the Man-child ministry is spiritually going to be 30 and it's going to start by building the New Jerusalem. Praise be to God! First, however, the Jebusites have to lose their grip and be conquered. And we need to know how to conquer this old man so that we can scale the heights of the City of God, the mountain of His holiness, and enter into His Presence. That is what the Word will do, and that is what the new anointed leadership is going to do for us. They are to teach us how to cooperate with God's work in our lives and be happy about it. Let's face it: if you don't know what God is doing, you're not happy about it. As soon as you get revelation, you can enjoy going through tribulation because you know that the Lord is getting you ready for His Kingdom, the manifestation of eternal life. Praise God!  Father, we thank You, in Jesus' name. Please open our eyes and make us joyful in cooperating with You in this process of sanctification, in becoming that holy, spotless, and blemishless Bride that You always wanted. Thank You, Father, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Refuse to wear the label. "His mother called his name Jabez, saying, 'Because I bore him in pain.'" 1Ch 4:9 NKJVThe name Jabez means "pain and trouble." Perhaps that's why no other parent in Scripture gave their child that name. But it's a label he refused to wear and a name he refused to be defined by. A label usually tells you what is in a bottle; its contents and even its value. And when you accept the labels people try to put on you, you start to believe that's who you really are and that you will never become anything more than that. The Bible says, "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he" (Pr 23:7). People will use past experiences to label and limit you. They will also use your physical, mental, and emotional characteristics to label and limit you. What should you do? Do what Jabez did -go to God! In the final analysis, His opinion about your past, present, and future is the one that matters most. Plus, He loves you and has a plan for your life. Jabez prayed a prayer that changed his life, and it will change your life too. "Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep me from evil, that I may not cause pain!' So God granted him what he requested" (1Ch 4:10 NKJV). Jabez asked God for four things: blessing, influence, power, and protection. And God gave them to him. So, today you have a choice; believe what others say about you, or believe what God says about you. When you look at it that way, the choice is clear.Refuse to wear the label Blessing, influence, power, and protectionShare This DevotionalSend us a textSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

Growth is about enlargement."You enlarged my path." Ps 18:36 NKJVRead these enlargement Scriptures: "You enlarged my path." "Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, 'Oh, that You would...enlarge my territory'" (1Ch 4:10 NKJV).  "Enlarge the place of your tent...lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes" (Isa 54:2 NKJV). God wants to enlarge you spiritually, emotionally, relationally, and in every area of your life. But to experience enlargement, you must learn from people larger than you. Dr. John Maxwell writes: "The first ten years that I was intentionally pursuing personal growth, I was always behind trying to catch up. I had to get over the comparison gap. I recognized I needed to be exposed to bigger and better leaders outside of my own small circle, but when I stepped out of my comfort zone, I was intimidated. It was clear that I was not in their league. Their organizations were six times the size of mine, and they had many more and much better ideas than I did. I felt like I was in over my head and trying to swim. Despite that, I was encouraged. Why? Because I discovered that great men were willing to share their ideas. And I was learning so much. You can only learn if others are ahead of you. It was a difficult transition, but it was well worth it. So if you are aware that others are better than you, don't be discouraged. Be glad others are there to help show you the way. Growth is not a rocking chair you sit in, it's a mountain you climb each day. But there is good news. As Jim Rohn said, 'You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight!'"Growth is about enlargement Be glad others are there to help show you the way.Share This DevotionalSend us a textSupport the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

True Leadership & Revival (audio) David Eells 12/4/24 The Lord is going to repeat the history written in the Gospels and Book of Acts on a much larger scale. Read God's Word and make sure that you will be on the right side of what is coming. Those early disciples were raised in their youth to believe that they were the people of God and that their apostate leaders were Godly men, until the Word of God through Jesus opened their eyes. When this happened they became a threat to the apostate (backslidden) leadership. Great persecution will come from the official church against those who begin to believe and walk in the steps of Jesus instead of religion. We know this to be so because it has been happening and will continue just as it says in Ecc 1:9 That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. If your church does not teach the Word as it was given in the beginning you are not learning to abide in Christ. You are in danger of being on the wrong side of what is coming. 1Jn 2:24 As for you, let that abide in you which ye heard from the beginning. If that which ye heard from the beginning abide in you, ye also shall abide in the Son, and in the Father. Christianity has followed in the steps of Judaism with its paid professionals who do not know God and have added to or taken away from the “everlasting covenant” with their traditions. They pay no heed to the warning in Rev 22:18 I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, if any man shall add unto them, God shall add unto him the plagues which are written in this book: 19 and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book. The prophet Joel declares a full restoration of all that the curse and religion has taken from God's people for years, first the Jews, and then the Gentiles. Joe 2:23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in Jehovah your God; for he giveth you the former (or early) rain in just measure, and he causeth to come down for you the rain, the former rain and the latter rain, in the first [month]. 24 And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil. 25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the canker-worm, and the caterpillar, and the palmer-worm, my great army which I sent among you. God's people will be restored from the devastation that these insect type curses did to His crop in the early and now going into the latter rain. This rain was identified in verses 28,29 as an outpouring of the Spirit on them. Peter quotes verses 28,29 in Joel declaring that the outpouring of the Spirit on Pentecost was a fulfillment of this prophecy. Act 2:16 but this is that which hath been spoken through the prophet Joel: 17 And it shall be in the last days, saith God, I will pour forth of my Spirit upon all flesh: And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see visions, And your old men shall dream dreams. This early rain came to the Jews that believed to restore them after a great falling away and then it was passed on to the Gentiles. Those disciples who received that power of the Spirit walked as Jesus walked and did His works. The pagans called them “Christians”. There's not enough evidence to convict many “Christians” of that anymore but the story is not over. For 2000 years only a few have been partakers of the early rain. The early and latter rain will come to those who believe, to restore the fallen Church and then it will be passed on to the Jews, because now most of them are the unbelievers. When will the latter rain come? Both the Jews and the Church have fallen away from what was given on Pentecost for 2000 years. The Spirit of God says in Hos 5:15 I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me earnestly. In the midst of affliction, which has already started, His people say in Hos 6:1 Come, and let us return unto Jehovah; for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. 2 After two days will he revive us: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live before him. 3 And let us know, let us follow on to know Jehovah: his going forth is sure as the morning; and he will come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth the earth. We see here that on the morning of the third day, where we are now, the latter rain outpouring will come to empower and restore the Church. What are these days? 2Pe 3:8 But forget not this one thing, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. Having read the writings of the early church fathers I can tell you that they commonly believed in the 1000-year day and that after six of these days the end would come. The Hindus, Muslims, and the Jews also believed this. Gibbon in “The Rise And Fall of The Roman Empire” said that the Christians believed this. I have found in Scripture over a dozen astounding revelations using the 1000-year days pointing to this time in which we live. The Bible is laid out in seven prophetic 1000-year days. These days are always numbered from the creation of the first Adam or the birth of the last Adam. There were 4000 years or four days between the Adams. I believe in September of 2001 to 2002 we came approximately to the Biblical year 6000 A.M. (Anno Mundi -year of the world). This begins the morning of the third day or third thousand years from the last, new creation Adam, Jesus Christ. It will also be the morning of the seventh day from the old creation Adam. This is when the end time begins and God finishes His work as God said in Gen 2:2 And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. According to this type God is about to finish His new creation work on the seventh day and rest. This soon coming latter rain outpouring will restore the true believers to the holiness, power, and ministry of Jesus. Religion will fight against this as they did the early rain and this time it will be worldwide. In perfect parallel to the early rain in the Book of Acts, this revival will come to the people of God who will receive it in the latter rain. God's crop is about to burst forth on this morning of the third day. As with the early rain this revival will not be spawned in the established apostate church but on the streets. As they lose their “members” the jealousy of the New Testament Pharisees and Sadducees will be evident. This revival will not be the placebo of false signs that have been seen, but a restoration of the Biblical gifts and powers to the righteous Joe 2:23-25. And as Jesus said, “greater works than these shall you do”. Mass healings and deliverances will come through the Man-child reformer ministers. The Med Beds will be put to shame.   The Real Apostolic Church Matthew J. Burdette (David's notes in red) I was in prayer several nights ago, and God began to show me a vision. In this vision I saw one that I knew to be an Apostle out in the streets. He was healing the sick, wheelchair cases were getting up out of their chairs, shouting and praising God. He was as Jesus was when He walked the earth. The very power of heaven seemed to be at his disposal without effort. (At this same time, God began to speak to me, or reveal to me, what was happening, almost in a narrative sense.) As the Apostle did the miraculous, he was also proclaiming the Kingdom of God to the people. His message did not veer from the message Peter preached on the day of Pentecost. It was “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost”. (Mass baptisms of water and Spirit will happen.) Many believed his words, and obeyed his message. Great revival was present! As the Apostle continued to proclaim and work the miracles, I saw others come on the scene. These men were leaders in churches. God was not moving for them in the same way he was with the Apostle, yet they were carrying the title of “Apostolic.” There was a hatred that came upon them for the Apostle. They despised his miracles, and began to say his power came from the devil. They cut him off from their fellowship and began to persecute him.  At this time I saw him in several different ways, or scenarios. Some of the “Apostolic” men began to try to turn the people away from the Apostle. Some followed them because they were ‘Elders in the church.' Their position and standing in the assembly swayed some to their view. They then began to fight the Apostle, throwing rocks at him, he was put in prison. He was even killed. It seemed strange, but as the Apostle suffered the persecution and was killed he still continued to do the work. (They will be dead to self, the world and religion.) Even after he was killed he was still there, preaching salvation, and showing God's power through the signs and wonders that he did. As all this was being shown to me God was narrating the whole thing to me. This is what He was saying: “The Apostle is the Real Apostolic Church. He is My Ambassador to the world. He will demonstrate My power to the world, but he will hold the same doctrine that the first Apostles taught, any other doctrine negates him as My Ambassador. The Apostle will be men that do not limit Me. They will ask for the impossible, so that I may get the Glory, because man could not do what they were asking. They will believe Me for the limitless.” As the scene changed, and the Apostle began to be persecuted, I seemed to know the interpretation as it happened. The Real Church will be persecuted by those that claim to be the church - much like the Pharisees persecuted Jesus. They will try to draw some away by speaking against the move of God through the Apostle (the Real Church). Some will follow them because they have been the leaders of the “church” for years. As God continues to move on the Real Church, these false leaders will hate all who stand with the Apostle. They will fight and cast false accusations, drawing some away. They will turn the ‘governments that be' against the Real Church. Men will be put in prison. Some will be put to death. (And some spiritually put to death.) Yet all the persecution will not destroy or stop the Real Apostolic Church from the task before them. The gates of hell will not prevail!     Corporate David Raises Apostles Soon Garrett Crawford - 05/13/2009 (David's notes in red) In this dream, the first thing I remember was that I was at my pc, looking at a website. There was some kind of piece written about a movie. The movie was about a few young men who traveled the world and ultimately changed it forever. I assumed it was about the first apostles. I was amazed at the good things the critic had to say about them and the movie because I did not think of him as a Christian. After I saw this, I began to look around some more on these young men and saw that there were many movies and books written about them. It was like they were larger than life and the whole world knew about their great works. But I also got the feeling that what they had accomplished was a one-time thing, never to be duplicated. As I sat and found myself thinking about them, I began to even admire them and think of the greatness of their works. (To most of the Church, the things that happened in the Gospels and Acts have passed away and are only of historic value, but God will repeat the former rain in a latter rain that will cover the world. Ecc 3:15 That which is hath been long ago; and that which is to be hath long ago been: and God seeketh again that which is passed away.) Shortly after this, I found myself sitting down on the floor with a small group of young men, some younger than me. David Eells was in the middle, sitting in a wooden chair. (I am being used as a type of this thing that will happen corporately all over the world, through the David ministries God told me He was about to raise up.) He had a book in his hands and he was teaching these men, but this was no ordinary teaching. He was preparing these men who sat around him to do many mighty works. He was raising them up to walk in the steps of their first-century counterparts. These who sat around him were on the verge of shaking the world and it was all going to start in this humble setting, in a small living room. (In the steps of the apostles, modern apostles will be raised up by the Man-childs to bring a remnant of the Church back to their biblical foundations in this coming latter rain. While the world was all excited about a movie of the former miracle workers, something so great was stirring here in this house and no one knew. (Much of the church has been deceived that God is not raising a people in the image of Christ to prove the power of His salvation.) While I was sitting there, my mom (representing the Church) walked in and said, “Garrett, the new movie just came out. Do you want to go see it?” I remembered my excitement about it and said yes, but then, as I looked back to David and the group sitting around him, it dawned on me, why would I want to see a movie about the past when I, along with these others, are on the verge of reliving what those men did, in the very near future? (In a repetition of history, many religious people will walk in the steps of their forefathers -- the Pharisees, Sadducees and Zealots -- in persecuting these men because of the dead letter that is taught to them. These Apostles and those who spring from them will shake the world.)     Revelation Given To David Walters I arrived early for the Sunday service and sat in a local church in Georgia. I looked around the sanctuary and saw only one or two other people. I looked around at the condition of the church and saw that it was well maintained. I have visited this church a number of times over the years. I had even preached there on several occasions: the first time in the mid-eighties. WHERE WAS EVERYONE? The sanctuary was capable of seating about four hundred. I knew there would be far less in attendance than 400. Probably around seventy or eighty. I began to consider what would be needed to fill that church. I began to imagine what I would do to fill it, if I were the pastor. Make the platform larger? Take the front pews out? Get rid of the grand piano and install a keyboard? Look for many gifted musicians? Change the pulpit to a fiberglass see through podium? Put banners on the walls? Make the meetings more attractive and exciting, in order to draw in lots of young families with kids and lots of young single adults? I said, “Yes Lord, I know You want to fill this church, but I'm not quite sure how”. The Lord then answered me and said, “I am not interested in filling church buildings. I have never been interested in filling church buildings, for it has never been on My agenda. My desire and My agenda is not fill church buildings, but to fill the whole earth with My glory. This has always been My agenda, to fill the heavens and the earth with My glory”. He then told me to check it out in the scriptures. “For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea”. (Hab 2:14.) “Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, Who only does wondrous things! And blessed be His glorious name forever! And let the whole earth be filled with His glory Amen and Amen”. (Psa 72:19)  He then went on to say, “There are many church buildings that are full today, but they have nothing to do with Me. I am not interested in filling church buildings, but many buildings will be filled, because of Me. But this will happen because of the moving of My Spirit upon the earth. When My Spirit moves you will not have enough buildings to contain the sinners and backsliders which will pour into my church. They will fill the streets, the marketplaces, the places of business in the cities. Yes! Every area of society will be affected by My mighty outpouring. For I am more concerned about nations, countries, cities and villages, than I am about church buildings. I am more concerned about nations than church affiliations and denominations.  For when My people become more concerned about their communities, their cities, their villages and their nations and pray and seek My face and give up their own agenda's and come into unity and seek Me for My agenda and My glory, then I will come upon their communities and their cities and their villages and their nations. When My people renounce the religious spirit, which has polluted much of My Body and caused division and has weakened My church and made her impotent, then I will hear and answer”. “When My church refuses to trust in the arm of the flesh, and in human talents, and renounces vain traditions, and casts out spirits of suspicion against herself, and calls upon My name, then I will come and visit her with My great power and presence. Expect to see a great sign and wonder which I am waiting to accomplish. Observe what I have already done and am doing in the nations across the world and know that there is nothing too hard for Me. For I am no respecter of persons, or countries, or nations; therefore humble yourselves, renounce the spirits of darkness and evil, repent of your sins and pray for a visitation of My Spirit upon your nation. When My people humble themselves, then I will humble the nations”.     True Church Government David Eells The common church government today breeds false prophets. Jesus, as a type of the Man-child, raised up the apostolic fathers to found the Church on a five-fold ministry of men who are spiritual specialists in their field. Pro 11:14 Where no wise guidance is, the people falleth; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety. Jesus Christ is the Spirit (1 Cor.15:45) and head of His Body the Church (Epe.5:23). His headship is manifested physically through the five-fold ministry of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers (Epe.4:11). The members of the head represent these different five-fold ministers. Apostle is Greek for “one sent forth”, and they are sent to raise up churches and set them in order. The apostles are ‘a jack of all trades' with a little of the gift of the rest of the five-fold ministry so they can discern the elders that they are called to ordain (Act.14:23). Elders are ordained five-fold ministers, not assistants to the pastor (Act.20:17, 11:30). Even apostles are elders (1Pe.5:1; 2Jn.1; 3Jn.1). When the legalists were trying to bring the Gentiles under the law the apostles and the other elders were gathered to consider this problem (Act.15:6). Together the elders made a decision (v-22) and sent their findings to the rest of the church (v-23; 16:4). Let's consider the other elders who are members of the head. The prophets are the spiritual eyes of the head and see what others do not. Isa 29:10 For Jehovah... hath closed your eyes, the prophets... 11 And all vision is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed. The pastors or shepherds are the nose of the head because they lead the local body of sheep to pastures with a discernment that is neither from their eyes or ears. There is no such thing as an assistant pastor in Scriptures. You either are a pastor or you are not. Teachers are the ears of the head. Solomon asked for “an understanding heart” in 1 Ki.3:9 and in verse 12 God granted him “an understanding heart”. The Hebrew word for “understanding” in both verses is “hearing”.  I was first ordained through an apostle to be a teacher. Later a prophet who knew nothing of this saw a vision of me with ears as big as elephants. Later the Lord appeared to me twice and re-ordained me to another office, which was confirmed by other ministers. I am certainly not comparing myself to Paul, but he was re-ordained as an example that the Lord does do this (Act.13:1-4; 14:14). The evangelist is the mouth of the head because he ministers to those outside the body. It takes all of these to perfect the saints and raise up others into the head (Eph.4:12,15) so that individuals in the Body have a portion of these gifts so they may be guided and used personally by their Lord. Now you know why Satan wanted to replace the five-fold ministry with a manmade one-fold ministry. This false government is easier to corrupt and the saints are not perfected by it. Through men with a lust for power Satan has been able to destroy the Scriptural government of the church. God never wanted a king over Israel; men did. They said, “make us a king to judge us like all the nations” (1Sa.8:5). Does pastor, assistant pastor, and elders sound a lot like President, Vice-President, and cabinet? The church has copied “all the nations” as Israel did. God gave Israel the king they wanted saying,       “they have rejected me, that I should not be king over them (7). God has given the church her kings too. God also warned Israel that their king would take their children to serve him and would charge them a tithe of everything for his service (10-18). Sound familiar? Pastors, without any Scriptural foundation, tell us that the Lord did away with the five-fold ministry after the apostles died. Actually it was false prophets who did away with the five-fold ministry. In our worldly system the pastor usurps the authority of the rest of the five-fold ministry. I have heard pastors who are not even filled with the Spirit claim that today they are the prophets when they expound the Word under the anointing. If this does not make them false prophets, then I do not know what does. As far as the five-fold ministry is concerned, nowhere in Scripture does the pastor take authority over a prophet or teacher or vice versa. In the world do doctors take authority in a lawyer's field or vice versa? Does it make sense to be given authority over another's gift that you have no expertise in? If a prophet, speaking in the Spirit, is told to shut up by a pastor, then God is told to shut up. (Many can exercise the gift to prophesy but the office of prophet is that of an overseer that has authority in the Body.) Remember that each of the five-fold ministers are overseers (or bishops) who are specialists in their field with authority only in their gift. Each is a portion of the head of the Body of Christ and necessary for the guidance of the Body. However, when one of the five-fold ministers falls into sin or gets deceived, the rest have authority to correct, discipline, or throw them out (1Cor.5:9-13). This insures the safety of the sheep. The false system of shepherd-ship is the Nicolaitan error, which Jesus said He hates (Rev.2:6,15). Nicolaitan comes from two words, “Nikao”, meaning “to conquer”, and “laity”, meaning “the people”. This was and is a privileged order who consider themselves above the common people as mediators between them and God. Ministers are to make disciples of Jesus and His Word, not themselves and their traditions. He is the mediator. The Protestants falsely copied the Nicolaitan error from the Catholic Church, which partially took it from the Old Testament priesthood. Jesus constantly denounced this worldly relationship between the ministry and the people. We read this in Mat 20:25 But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 26 Not so shall it be among you: but whosoever would become great among you shall be your minister (Greek: “servant”); 27 and whosoever would be first among you shall be your servant (Greek: “bondservant”): 28 even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto (Greek: “served”), but to minister (Greek: “serve”), and to give his life a ransom for many. Mat 23:10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your master, [even] the Christ. 11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted.     Jesus' Coming on Board Brings Revival David Eells Many years ago I asked the Lord, “Why is there so much spiritual resistance and all the wicked coming against us, with limited success in getting the Word out to the multitudes?” I was led to flip my Bible open and stick my finger down without looking and I got: Luk 5:4 And when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon answered and said, Master, we toiled all night, and took nothing: but at thy word I will let down the nets. 6 And when they had done this, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes; and their nets were breaking; 7 and they beckoned unto their partners in the other boat, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink. 8 But Simon Peter, when he saw it, fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. 9 For he was amazed, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken; 10 and so were also James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. So this is saying the disciples worked in relative darkness while Jesus, as a type of the Man-child, wasn't in the boat and they caught no fish, representing the lack of revival. When Jesus entered the boat and gave the Word, the catch was overwhelming. I have said that we are building a platform for the Man-child ministry and not us. PTL! Come on board, Lord! The fact that He gave me this underlined part of the verse, from henceforth thou shalt catch men, says to me that we are almost at that point when Jesus comes on board and we will be amazed at the multitudes coming into the Kingdom. I then said, “What else will you speak about this, Lord?” In the same way I got the part below, which is a type of Jesus in the end-time Man-child. Rom 15:12 And again, Isaiah saith, There shall be the root of Jesse (A type of David / Jesus / and Jesus in the Man-child), And he that ariseth to rule over the Gentiles (Nations); On him shall the Gentiles (Nations) hope. 13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit. God is permitting hindrance until the timing is right when the light of the coming of the glory of Jesus in the Man-child will start the great revival. For many years it has been prophesied that a great revival would start in Pensacola, Florida. When I lived there a prophetess pointed me out all the way across a large church saying loudly that I was the one the Word would come through. That was my first time there and her first time there. (In 1993, Dr. David Yonggi Cho, pastor of the Yoido Full Gospel Church, Seoul, South Korea, the world's largest church, conducted a meeting in Seattle, Washington. As he prayed for revival in America, he questioned, “God are you going to send revival to America, or is she destined for judgment?” The Lord instructed him to get a map of America. He did so, and the Holy Spirit told him to point his finger at the map. As he did, he felt his finger drawn to the Florida panhandle and to the city of Pensacola. “I am going to send revival to the seaside city of Pensacola, and it will spread like a fire until all of America has been consumed by it”, said the Lord to Dr. Cho.) When the Brownsville Revival came, pastor Cho at first thought this was the fulfillment of his revelation, but I knew that it was only the counterfeit before the real even as Babel came before the real virgin birth. I believe we will get the boat built but won't have great success until the soon coming glory of God comes aboard through the Man-child reformers. Then I got this verse: 1Pe 4:13 but insomuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings, rejoice; that at the revelation of his glory also ye may rejoice with exceeding joy. (The greater glory is coming through the Man-child reformers.) 14 If ye are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed [are ye]; because the [Spirit] of glory and the Spirit of God resteth upon you.     Saul's Death Brings David and Revival Shirley Hinkle (David's notes in red) I was told by God at the end of 2007 to fast for the death of Saul (1 Chronicles 10:12). (God does not want us to pray for the death of any individual but for the death of the Saul ministry which is leading God's people to death. [See Pharisees, Saul & Eli Ministry series.] An apostate Saul ministry is spiritually dying now to make room for the anointed Davids, the coming Man-child Reformers, in whom Jesus will be manifested by Word and Spirit. 1Ch 10:6 So Saul died, and his three sons; and all his house died together. ... 11:1-3 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, ... Thou shalt be shepherd of my people Israel, and thou shalt be prince over my people Israel. ... and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of Jehovah by Samuel.) During this fast I had 2 dreams. Dream 01/04/2008 A man walked up to me in my dream and said, “Pray for the womb to heal from the inside out, prepare for the seed”. (The seed of the Word has to have good nurturing soil in us to bring forth the fruit of Jesus. When the seed is planted, Saul's death will be completed in nine months and the Davids, as the Man-child, will be anointed. Also the Davids will be planting the seed of the Kingdom in the womb of the saints.) Dream 01/06/2008 I was in this room with some other people. We were sitting in rows of chairs; there were just a few of us there. David Eells (Representing the coming David, Man-child reformers in whom Jesus will live by Word and Spirit.) walked into the room and said, “Where is everybody?” (In the beginning there will be only a few. According to Rev 3:10, it is only the Bride of the Philadelphia Church who will escape the hour of trial for they have already been tried.) David said, “Maybe they all went in the rapture after all.” He then chuckled in that little laugh of his and we all laughed with him. The atmosphere in the room was very light and peaceful. A woman walked into the room and up to David and said, “You need to remove that big farmer's machine that is blocking the front door; not everyone knows about the side door over there that we use. (In other visions we have seen two doors: a smaller one opened in the beginning for the first fruits and a larger door for the ingathering harvest at the end.) So we all looked and sure enough, there blocking the front door was this big planter machine that puts the seed into the ground to fertilize it. (Jesus was not seeking for the multitudes since he spent much time with 12 disciples who could perfectly reflect Him to the world. He was the pattern to be duplicated. These 12 became a geometric progression that later reached the World.) The next scene David was passing out something to the few of us who were there. When he came to me I saw he was carrying a very large brown woven basket full of water. (The basket is our life full of the water of the Word. The coming revival will have a small beginning — the Bride, which is Zion. Psa 14:7 Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion! When Jehovah bringeth back the captivity of his people, Then shall Jacob rejoice, [and] Israel shall be glad.) I looked into the basket to see what it was and saw it was full of pickled cucumbers. (Cucumbers are mostly water and are full of seeds and they were in the water of the Word. When pickled they are incorruptible.  This is what purifies souls or manifests Christ in you. 1Pe 1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently: 23 having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth. Zion is the “small remnant” that has the seed to restore the rest of Israel. Isa 1:7 Your country is desolate; your cities are burned with fire; your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers. 8 And the daughter of Zion is left as a booth in a vineyard, as a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, as a besieged city. 9 Except Jehovah of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, we should have been like unto Gomorrah.)  I got very excited and said, “Oh, I have one of those too”, and we looked down on my lap and there was the exact same very large brown woven basket full of water with pickled cucumbers. (We are to bring our baskets full of the Word to feed the revival.) The people around us started eating from the baskets and found it to be very refreshing, they said. (The seed of the Kingdom greatly refreshes. Song 2:5 Stay ye me with raisins [old seed], refresh me with apples [new seed]..., and Mat 13:52 And he said unto them, Therefore every scribe who hath been made a disciple to the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a householder, who bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.) As the people started eating, the people began to multiply until the room was packed and there was no place to sit; it was standing room only. People were trying to make room for even more who were coming in. (Passing around the incorruptible seed of the Word will make for a great revival.) In the front of the room a lady called to me to come to her, so I did and when I reached her, I recognized her to be from the UBM ministry. She had a teabag in her hand and then handed me enough to make a cup of tea. When she went to hand it to me she got so happy she started rejoicing. She said to me, “Look!” and I turned and there behind me was a line of people that was so long we couldn't see the end. (This is the geometric progression. One shared with ten. Ten shares with a hundred. A great revival is coming our way.) She started laughing and rejoicing again, saying, “I don't know if I will have enough teabags for everyone, but I will continue to pass it out”. (Skillful workers in the Kingdom are like teabags that pass on the pure flavor of the tea without passing on the flesh of the tea leaves.)

Escaping Apostate Church Judgments (3) (audio) David Eells – 11/24/24 I'm going begin today by reading Hannah's prayer in 1Sa 2:1 And Hannah prayed, and said: My heart exulteth in Jehovah; My horn is exalted in Jehovah; My mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; Because I rejoice in thy salvation. 2 There is none holy as Jehovah; For there is none besides thee, Neither is there any rock like our God. 3 Talk no more so exceeding proudly; Let not arrogancy come out of your mouth; For Jehovah is a God of knowledge, And by him actions are weighed. 4 The bows of the mighty men are broken; And they that stumbled are girded with strength. 5 They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; And they that were hungry have ceased to hunger: Yea, the barren hath borne seven; And she that hath many children languisheth. So what did she mean, she had born seven? We know that Hannah had been barren. Well, we're talking about a Man-child here, but the Man-child is not an individual, is he? And why seven? When we read Mic 5:5 …When the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men. So we see that Micah prophesied that when the Lord returned to his people that He would raise up seven princes, “seven shepherds, and eight principal men,” or eight princes among men, to defend God's people from the Beast. It's seven because there are seven churches and God is raising up the leadership to go to the seven churches. The eighth is mentioned separately because He is the prince of Peace Jesus who is in the midst of the seven. 6 Jehovah killeth, and maketh alive: He bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up. 7 Jehovah maketh poor, and maketh rich: He bringeth low, he also lifteth up. 8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, He lifteth up the needy from the dunghill, To make them sit with princes, And inherit the throne of glory: (This is her Man-child, that she brought forth to inherit the throne of glory.) For the pillars of the earth are Jehovah's, And he hath set the world upon them. 9 He will keep the feet of his holy ones; But the wicked shall be put to silence in darkness; For by strength shall no man prevail. 10 They that strive with Jehovah shall be broken to pieces; Against them will he thunder in heaven: Jehovah will judge the ends of the earth; And he will give strength unto his king, And exalt the horn of his anointed. I believe this is talking about the Eli, Pharisee and Saul ministries, and a lot of ministers in our day who are going to resist and fight against the truth, as they have throughout history. In Jesus' day, the leadership over God's people fought with Jesus; they accused Jesus; they crucified Jesus. They did the same with His disciples, also. They strove with the Lord and He destroyed them. 1Sa 2:10 … And he will give strength unto his king, And exalt the horn of his anointed. Oh, praise God! Who is this king and His anointed? Well, in this case it was Samuel, but it was also Joseph, Moses, David and Jesus, all those good types. He will exalt the horn, the strength of His anointed. 11 And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child did minister unto the Lord before Eli the priest. 12 Now the sons of Eli were base men; they knew not the Lord. How could they have been the priests of Israel and not know the Lord? Well, honestly, it doesn't take very long to read the Word of God to find out that a lot of ministers nowadays don't know the Lord. They don't know the Lord but do they have some kind of association with religion? Yes. When you come into the Kingdom and you get a born-again spirit, you have a consciousness of God, but, quite frankly, if you don't obey that born-again spirit, it soon dies and you become what the Bible calls twice dead, plucked up by the roots (Jud.12). Who was Jude speaking about when he said that? The apostate ministers and many they train. And so you can be in the pulpit and be dead as a doornail. Saul died at the hands of the Philistines and I believe that it's talking about being dead in the spirit while he lived. We know that many of you have come out of churches after you realized they were dead. They were really not walking in the spirit; they were really not sharing the living Word of God. They were dead and you came out because of that. Praise God! 1Sa 2:13 And the custom of the priests with the people was, that, when any man offered sacrifice, the priest's servant came, while the flesh was boiling, with a flesh-hook of three teeth in his hand; 14 and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or cauldron, or pot; all that the flesh-hook brought up the priest took therewith. So they did in Shiloh unto all Israel that came thither. Shiloh, of course, was the house of God in those days, so this is basically the ministers gathering up their tithe, but these people were abusing it. And it's a very good type of exactly what's happening today. They were abusing their position as priests of the Lord, as ministers of God's house, by plundering God's people. Now he's going to point out two main things here about the sons of Eli that are exactly the problems with the leadership of the church in our day and how they are plundering God's people. 1Sa 2:15 Yea, before they burnt the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest; for he will not have boiled flesh of thee, but raw. Of course, that wasn't according to their custom. 16 And if the man said unto him, They will surely burn the fat first, and then take as much as thy soul desireth; then he would say, Nay, but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force. So here you have some ministers taking what they feel belonged to them, by force. The only thing was, this was a sacrifice. This was a sacrifice made by the person who was freely giving it, but they were taking it by force. That's an abuse of a sacrifice. Do you know that in the New Testament God has a sacrifice? It's a freewill offering. There is nothing in the New Testament about taking something by Law. Who is it who takes by Law? Well, you're looking at it right here. It's the apostate Eli ministry which is robbing and plundering God's people and taking from them by Law, taking from them because of their position. We don't have any such custom in the New Testament of demanding a tithe. Jesus said, So therefore whosoever he be of you that renounceth not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple (Luk 14:33). He didn't say 10%; He said everything you have. And Jesus said in Mat 23:23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye tithe mint and anise and cummin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law, Jesus said tithing was of the Law, not of grace. There's no commandment in the New Testament whatsoever for you to do this. Not one. And the rest of the verse says, justice, and mercy, and faith: but these ye ought to have done, and not to have left the other undone. Notice that Jesus spoke to the Jews of their Law as being in the past, Meaning the Old Covenant. He never commanded it in the New Covenant because it was “a shadow of the good things to come.” But here is what's commanded: 2Co 9:6 But this [I say,] He that soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. So it's just according to how much you give and that's really not according to the Law. The Law was 10% -- bring into the storehouse 10%. But now He's saying very plainly, “No, the more you give, the more you'll receive.” 2Co 9:7 [Let] each man [do] according as he hath purposed in his heart…. Well, that's certainly not the Law at all. That's not demanding it; that's a freewill offering. Do as you feel in your heart. This is a man's personal sacrifice to God and to the ministry, and, of course, the ministry today is abusing that because they are dragging people back under the Law, which is forbidden. The Law separates from Christ; it separates from grace and, if you seek to be justified by the Law, you have to keep the whole Law. Gal 5:3 … He is a debtor to do the whole law. 4 Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace. So it's not good for ministers to say you have to keep the tithe because you can't be saved that way. If you're seeking to be justified by the Law, then you have to keep the whole Law in order to be justified, but we're justified by grace and God says this is what God wants from His New Testament, born-again people. These are not people who are lost people, who are just following rules and regulations. These are people who have the grace of God in their heart. God expects more as He says in Luk 12:48 And to whomsoever much is given, of him shall much be required…. Now, in the New Testament, when you're born again and you receive the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in your newborn temple; therefore He expects more because you have God in you and you are the temple. You don't go to the temple, you are the temple of God. God's in us. Col 1:27 … Christ in you, the hope of glory. God is the One Who is living the Christian life in us, you see. That's the whole point. So you would expect more from someone like that. You don't have to force somebody like that to do something and, if you had to, they obviously don't have God in their heart. So what does the Lord say? 2Co 9:7 Let each man [do] according as he hath purposed in his heart: not grudgingly, or of necessity … It's not even necessary as a law would be. Well, it's not going to be edifying to a person to not give because giving is the heart of God and giving is how, of course, God multiplies it back to us. 2Co 9:6 But this [I say,] He that soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he that soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. In other words, God wants to bless us and He's telling us that if it's in our heart to give, then good, do it. But He's not putting you under Law. It's not of necessity. Anybody who does put you under the Law is departing from the New Testament and they're doing exactly like Eli's sons, who were using the Law to force the giving. So he says, 2Co 9:7 … For God loveth a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound unto you; that ye, having always all sufficiency in everything, may abound unto every good work…. That's a powerful promise that covers everything, doesn't it? And it's just because a person gives out of the heart, not because they're under the Law. You know, sure, if you give under the Law, God will give back. When I first learned that the Lord wanted me to give, I did, and for a short time I went under the Law. But when I realized that it wasn't Scriptural, I started to give according to the Spirit because now I had the Holy Spirit to speak in my heart and tell me what to do. In the New Testament, that's why the Holy Spirit is given. You don't need a law because now we have …the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus (Rom 8:2). You don't have need to have anybody to tell you, “You must do this.” Instead, you want to do it because God is working in you to will and to do of His good pleasure (Philippians 2:13). That's what New Testament salvation is all about. God is putting it in your heart. That's the kind of person God wants. He doesn't want a person who has to be forced or they won't do it. What kind of a son is that? That's a servant, but it's not a son and God is creating sons. So if we look back in 1 Samuel 2, we see a problem with the overwhelming majority of apostate ministries nowadays. They want to force the people to give something that should be a sacrifice on the part of the giver. They should just want to give it out of their own heart. In other words, give them the freedom to make the sacrifice the way they see that they want to do it. But, in the apostate ministries, the giving is being forced and that's exactly what we're seeing here in 1 Samuel. But the priest's servant said, 1Sa 2:16 Nay, but thou shalt give it me now: and if not, I will take it by force. 17 And the sin of the young men was very great before the Lord; for the men despised the offering of the Lord. See, the offering of the Lord is holy because it comes out of holy hearts, people who want to give. They see a need and they are meeting that need. And it may be the need of their brother. Jesus said, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of these my brethren, [even] these least, ye did it unto me (Mat.25:40). It may be a need of the brethren. It may not be bringing it into the storehouse, which is a church building or an organization, because the storehouse was not in the church. In the Old Testament, it was in the Temple and we are the Temple. God is going to judge His people by the way they treat His Temple, by what you do to the “least of these my brethren.” Did you feed them? Did you clothe them? Did you visit them in prison? See, that's how He judged the nations when He returned because that's His Temple. So it's very important that the sacrifice be a willing sacrifice in our covenant and not be demanded by Law. The people in ministry who force the giving are despising the offering of the Lord. Going on in 1Sa 2:27 And there came a man of God unto Eli, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Did I reveal myself unto the house of thy father, when they were in Egypt [in bondage] to Pharaoh's house? 28 and did I choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be my priest, to go up unto mine altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me? and did I give unto the house of thy father all of the offerings of the children of Israel made by fire? 29 Wherefore kick ye at mine sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in [my] habitation, and honorest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people? An Eli ministry gets fat from the offerings of God's people because they have departed from the Word of God; they are plundering God's people. It's not permitted and they will be judged for it, exactly like Eli's sons were being judged for it. You know, we are warned over and over in the Scriptures: Isa 56:9 All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, [yea,] all ye beasts in the forest. 10 His watchmen are blind … Did you know, by the way, that Eli was blind? He became blind. 10 His watchmen are blind, they are all without knowledge; they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark (In other words, they do not know when the enemy's coming. They don't know how to warn God's people. They don't know that they are the enemy.); dreaming, lying down, loving to slumber. 11 Yea, the dogs are greedy, they can never have enough; and these are shepherds that cannot understand: they have all turned to their own way, each one to his gain, from every quarter. How many of God's people are supporting this debauchery in God's church? See, it's totally contrary to the Word of God. What you are supporting when you're doing that, is an Eli ministry. It's going down the drain fast at this particular moment. They're all dyeing. I'm not talking physically, I'm talking spiritually. If they're not dead already, they're going to die. They'd have to repent and come out of plundering God's people. There's nothing in the New Testament about being under the Law for giving. We are, of course, stewards of what belongs to God in the New Testament. Luk 14:33 So therefore whosoever he be of you that renounceth not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple. We are stewards; we're not owners. So, therefore, a person who tithes is a thief because he thinks the 90% belongs to him and the 10% belongs to God. Well, you just stole 90% because Jesus said the rest of that belongs to Him, too. So, if we're not a thief, then we listen to the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit tells you what to do with your house, what to do with your car, and what to do with your money. He tells you not only what to give and how much, but where to give it and to whom to give it. He is the One. He is the Lord since you have the Holy Spirit. In the Old Testament, they did not have the Holy Spirit commonly, so they needed a rule and regulation to tell them what to do. It's not so now. The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made you free from the law of sin and death, so you're free from that law and now you're under the law of the Spirit. And the Spirit is the One Who knows your brethren, He knows the needs; He knows exactly what He wants to do and how much He wants to do, so we have to follow the Holy Spirit with everything. The Sabbath is no longer one day; it's every day. We cease from our works and enter into His rest every day. Now, what about the tithe? It's the same thing. See, when Jesus came, He multiplied the Law. Did you notice that in Matthew 5? Everything about the Law He multiplied, He made it bigger, because now God works in us from the inside out to do His Will. He works a desire in us to do what before we were fighting against with our carnal nature. It's a wonderful thing. But the Eli ministries are greedy dogs; they can never have enough. It is astounding how they can see so many people in need, even in their own assemblies, and yet don't lift a finger to help them. Meanwhile, they're flying their personal jet planes and doing all these things. Going on again in 1Sa 2:29 … Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in [my] habitation, and honorest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people? 30 Therefore the Lord, the God of Israel, saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me forever: but now the Lord saith, Be it far from me…. Wow! Did you know God could do that? Have you ever heard that doctrine of unconditional eternal security? Look at that big “but now” in the middle of that verse. Because God's promises are conditional and we have to have faith in Him. Our part is faith; His part is to supply the power. God can drop us like a rock any time. He can empower you to walk in His steps or He can give you up to this world and I'll tell you what: there is no promise for those who don't bear fruit. God is looking for the fruit of Jesus Christ. 1Sa 2:30 … But now the Lord saith, Be it far from me; for them that honor me I will honor, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed. Obviously, He's talking about these preachers who were plundering His people and abusing them, and taking an offering from them. You don't “take” an “offering.” That's an oxymoron. 1Sa 2:31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm, and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house. 32 And thou shalt behold the affliction of [my] habitation, in all the wealth which [God] shall give Israel; and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever. 33 And the man of thine, [whom] I shall not cut off from mine altar, [shall be] to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy heart; and all the increase of thy house shall die in the flower of their age. 34 And this shall be the sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas…. Do you know what “Hophni” and “Phinehas” mean? “Hophni” means “stiff-necked, self-willed,” and “Phinehas,” I understand, means “a trustworthy face, but the mouth of a serpent.” Isn't that interesting? You know, a lot of people see what they see standing in their pulpit, but that's all they see. They see what they're supposed to see and they see what they are permitted to see, but they don't know what's really going on there. You may remember how I shared with you about one of the first churches I was invited to preach in Pensacola, while I was there I did a lot of teaching. The pastor of that particular church was an Eli pastor and, no doubt about it, he was doing everything that these guys were doing and more. There was a man who came in and he got saved; he came in totally drunk and he got sobered up. Shortly after that, God gave him a vision of the pastor as a serpent standing up behind the pulpit, speaking through a microphone. He did not understand it and he brought it to me and I told him, “Well, it means just what it says, you know.” And that pastor's last name meant “dragon.” He was the dragon, the old serpent. Well, “Phinehas” means “a trustworthy face, but the mouth of a serpent.” 1Sa 2:34 And this shall be the sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall die both of them. I'm going to back up a little bit here. 1Sa 2:22 Now, Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons did unto Israel, and how that they lay with the women that did service at the door of the tent of meeting. Do we ever hear of that happening nowadays? Yes, quite often, don't we? Evidently, sex and money seem to get hold of an awful lot of people who put themselves in a position of ultimate power over God's people. It seems like men who are not full of God cannot stand too much power, too much authority, too much money, too much esteem of the people, before they begin to take advantage of it. What it's saying is that a person shouldn't seek a position in God's Kingdom unless God puts them there. You know how God puts them there? He prepares them first. They are overcomers. Rev 2:26 And he that overcometh, and he that keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give authority over the nations. Nowadays, “You can just go to Bible school and you pay for that certificate and now you're a preacher.” You can do this, but you're in trouble because there is not the nature of Jesus Christ there. After all, you have not overcome by going through trials yourself. And so what happens when you get out there and you get all this temptation? Because the Nicolaitan error is a great temptation. Putting a man in a position that is not Biblical is a great temptation that most people cannot stand. And the proof is showing up. I mean, they are lying with the women who do the service of the door of the Tent of Meeting. They're doing it now. The money, the women, the power, the abuse of their power, it's still the problem. We know God never designed a Nicolaitan ministry, anyway. He called for a five-fold ministry. That's what He called for. He distributed the authority among the five-fold ministry. That's His way of doing things. God's going to raise up the five-fold ministry. Remember, Jesus the Man-child raised up the apostles who raised up the five-fold ministry. The apostles ordained the five-fold ministers. They are the ones who started that. Once again, history is going to repeat in these days because the Man-child is going to raise up apostles who are going to raise up the five-fold ministry. He is going to restore the real five-fold ministry this time. I'm talking about people who have overcome, who are given a position by God, who were ordained to that position by God. In the Bible, it was apostles who ordained the five-fold ministry, but nowadays Bible schools can do it, so we have gone astray. We've fallen into what the Bible calls the “Nicolaitan error” (Revelation 2:6). We've gone far, far astray, and the ministers who put themselves in that position, and the people who put the ministers in that position, are not doing them a favor because they really can't hold up to that. God has to do this. God is the One Who ordains ministers, not men, not organizations and not religions. And so we've ended up with quite a lot of the Eli ministry out there. In Jesus' day, how many of the Pharisees, who were Eli ministers, how many of them recognized Him and obeyed Him when God sent His Son? Well, God is doing it again and they're going to do the same thing. The Lord told me that this is where we are right now, in the midst of a Pharisee, Saul and Eli ministry. But coming right down the road is this Man-child reformer ministry led by the Holy Spirit. Looking at the news concerning the church and the pastors and teachers and prophets and so on, we can see the great falling away going on around us. We know that it's happening again and we can tell where we are. God has pronounced judgment upon the Eli ministry and what's going to happen to it. 1Sa 2:31 Behold, the days come, that I will cut off thine arm (this is speaking of Eli and his household), and the arm of thy father's house, that there shall not be an old man in thy house. 32 And thou shalt behold the affliction of [my] habitation, in all the wealth which [God] shall give Israel; and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever. 33 And the man of thine, [whom] I shall not cut off from mine altar, [shall be] to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy heart; and all the increase of thy house shall die in the flower of their age. 34 And this shall be the sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall die both of them. 35 And I will raise me up a faithful priest, that shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind…. Oh, praise the Lord! This is what we have coming, folks: faithful priests “that shall do according to that which is in my heart and in my mind.” That's not a small statement there. God will give grace. He will send new leadership. Of course, we know that this priest represents a corporate body in our day, spread throughout the earth, that God is sending to restore His people. 1Sa 2:35 … And I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed forever. Oh, praise the Lord! What do you think that means? Well, most people think it means he'll walk before the Lord. I think that's true, no doubt that this new, faithful ministry will walk before the Lord, but I believe that there's something deeper than that here. Let's turn to the New Testament. 2Co 1:21 Now he that establisheth us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God. Stop and think about that. God establishes us in Christ and anoints us. You know, the word “Christ” means “the anointed.” And Christ was the anointed, but Jesus left an individual body to come back in a corporate body in order to be able to do all over the world what He did in that first body, so the body of Christ is to be anointed. 2Co 1:22 Who also sealed us, and gave [us] the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. The “anointing” is “to be filled with the Holy Spirit.” I dare say most of the church is not filled with the Spirit but, then, most of the church is not anointed. The Lord told me years ago that if we get what the apostles got, we'll do what they did. Read the book of Acts and find out what they had. When Jesus was ministering to the disciples, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Spirit (Joh 20:22) and there came from heaven a sound as of the rushing of a mighty wind Act 2:2 and… they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other tongues 4, etc. Now, if you get that, you'll do what they did. Most of the church today is very dead because they feel that they have been anointed but they haven't. It's just words, you know. So, if you don't want what they have, you won't do what they did. So “he … establisheth us with you in Christ, and anointed us.” Why does God anoint us? It's so that we can walk in the steps of Christ, so that Christ can live through us to the world. We need to be anointed. We have to have this anointing, you see. What it said about Samuel was that, “He shall walk before mine anointed forever.” In other words, in this case we're talking about him being the leadership of God's anointed body that God is sending in the earth. He's walking before them as the leader of His anointed body to do His works. The Man-child, in whom Jesus lives, will be a leader of the anointed body of Christ in our day, just as Jesus was in His day. 1Sa 2:36 And it shall come to pass, that everyone that is left in thy house…. What does “left in” mean? Well, we haven't gotten that far yet, but his house was wiped out and the people who followed his house were wiped out, at the hand of the Philistines. We know the Philistine represents the old man who lives in the land. There's a war going on between our spiritual man, who is an Israelite and the old man, who is a Philistine, and the war is for the land, which Hebrews 6 tells us is this physical life; this life is that land. Now when he says here, “everyone that is left in thy house,” it means, in other words, there are some people who are going to repent of the Saul ministry and not only of the ministry, but of following the Saul ministry. They're no longer going to be a part of that house and they're going to survive because their old man is not going to conquer them. 1Sa 2:36 And it shall come to pass, that everyone that is left in thy house shall come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a loaf of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priests' offices, that I may eat a morsel of bread. We are the priests of God. As we sacrifice unto the Lord, as we make this burnt offering of flesh to the Lord, each one of us presenting our bodies as a living sacrifice, we are the priests of God. You're not sacrificing your life unto the Saul ministry. That's the whole problem; the Saul ministry refused to sacrifice the old man and, therefore, died at the hands of the old man. Now we're seeing the same thing about Eli. And so if we want to be priests, we have to be following the Samuels. There are people who are going to come out from under the Eli and Saul ministries and follow the David and Samuel ministry, and they will be priests of the Lord. Notice how this sounds very much like Joseph. Remember how, after selling Joseph into bondage, his own brothers came into the kingdom and it was he who kept them alive during the seven years of famine? He fed them. They came to him. All Israel, as a matter of fact, came to Joseph because the sons of Jacob, or Israel, all came to him in Egypt and Joseph served them; he met their needs. And we saw, also, that as soon as Saul died on Gilboa, along with the part of Israel that followed him, all the rest of Israel followed David. 1Ch 11:1 Then all Israel gathered themselves to David unto Hebron, saying, Behold, we are thy bone and thy flesh. Wow, they're actually saying they're the body of David! And so we see that this is about to repeat, folks. These people are dying; not physically, but spiritually they are dying. They're dying at the hands of the old man because they've refused to make war against the old man. 1Sa 3:1 And the child Samuel ministered unto the Lord before Eli. And the word of the Lord was precious (or “rare”) in those days; there was no frequent vision. It's the same today. There is “no frequent vision” from the Lord. Yes, many people have visions and the frequency of the vision of the Lord is something that the prophetic office is supposed to be sending forth, but it's all been polluted. 2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to wax dim, so that he could not see). Notice that when Samuel arrives, the Word begins to speak about Eli's eyesight being poor and it seems to get worse and worse the longer that Samuel is on the scene. There's a reason for that and we'll look at it. But what does it mean for his eyes to begin “to wax dim, so that he could not see”? Well, I think this is talking about a lack of perception, a lack of discernment. As Jesus said, Therefore speak I to them in parables; because seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand (Mat.13:13). They lost their eyesight in the days of the coming of Jesus and now it's speaking about the Eli ministry losing their spiritual eyesight. 1Sa 3:3 And the lamp of God was not yet gone out, and Samuel was laid down [to sleep,] in the temple of the Lord, where the ark of God was. So here's Samuel in the presence of the Lord and here's Eli losing his spiritual eyesight, meaning his prophetic gift. Now if we go back to one of the verses we read earlier, it says, and the man of thine, [whom] I shall not cut off from mine altar (1Sa 2:33). We see that there are some people who are “under” the Saul ministry who are not going to be “of” the Saul ministry because they're going to repent. There's a multitude of God's people who are going to come out of these apostate churches and follow the David ministry, follow the Samuel ministry, and we praise God for that. This is going to be a reformation that's coming. Those who stay will die. There's no doubt about it. If they continue to follow that which is not the leading of the Holy Spirit, not ordained of God, not the Word of God, they will die. 1Sa 2:33 And the man of thine, [whom] I shall not cut off from mine altar, [shall be] to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy heart; and all the increase of thy house shall die in the flower of their age. Remember, David was raised up under the Saul ministry, but he was David; he continued to grow. And here Samuel is raised up under the Eli ministry. This seems to be a parallel all the way through the Scriptures. So he's saying that there are people who are of that house, who will not be cut off from God's altar, but they will be “to consume thine eyes.” Why is this? How could it be that somebody who is righteous and who is going to outgrow that ministry, and who is going to repent, how could it be that these people will consume the eyes of the Eli ministry? Well, believe it or not, Jesus made a statement like that. Of course, we know Jesus was the Samuel, was the man-child of His day. Joh 9:39 And Jesus said, For judgment came I into this world, that they that see not may see; and they that see may become blind. So here's the Samuel ministry coming upon the scene and suddenly somebody's becoming blind. Joh 9:40 Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said unto him, Are we also blind? 41 And Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye would have no sin: but now ye say, We see: your sin remaineth. In our day, those people who say they see are becoming blind, but the people who don't claim to have the understanding, the perception, or the discernment, they're the ones like the kind of people whom Jesus gathered around Him. It was those fishermen, those tax collectors, those harlots, those sinners, it was they who became His staunch disciples and they didn't say that they could see. They didn't claim to be theologians, they didn't claim to know everything about God, but the people who did were becoming blind. In John 9 there's a really neat story about a blind man who's blind from birth and whom Jesus healed of his blindness. Jesus made mud, He smeared it on his eyes, sent him into the pool of Siloam and the blind man came back seeing. When the Pharisees heard of this, they basically called the healed man on the carpet and wanted to know who it was who had done this. So he said it was the one called Jesus. Then they wanted to know how it was that he was healed, so he related the whole story. Of course, they were just trying to pick holes in the story because these were the jealous Eli ministry that really didn't want anybody coming in and taking away their position, their kingdom. Jesus spoke of their ministry in Matthew 21 through the parable of God sending His Son and then those people who wanted the vineyard for themselves killing the Son. Well, it's pretty neat how this man rebuked those Pharisees. After they asked him a couple of times in a row, “How did he do this?” he said, “I told you already. You weren't listening. Why didn't you hear?” And they said, “We know this man's a sinner, that he couldn't possibly be from God.” To which the healed man replied, Joh 9:30 Why, herein is the marvel, that ye know not whence he is, and [yet] he opened mine eyes. 31 We know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and do his will, him he heareth. 32 Since the world began it was never heard that any one opened the eyes of a man born blind. And how is it that these people didn't know that this man was from God? The healed man told them, “We know that God doesn't hear sinners, but he opened my eyes.” So this man, who didn't say he was a theologian, didn't say he knew everything about God, had a lot more wisdom than these people who were going against the Word of God in trying to justify themselves. This man who was under their ministry, under this Saul-Pharisee-Eli ministry, was now being delivered and it was making them angry. Actually, they excommunicated him; they threw him out of the church, basically because he told the truth, but they didn't want to hear the truth. There are some of you today who are coming out from among them. Like the Shulamite in the Song of Solomon, you have tried to bring this Jesus Whom you've found back to your “mother” and some of them really don't want to hear about it (Song of Solomon 3:4). You know what I'm talking about, right? Well, every time that you come out from under those ministries and you bring back the truth to them and they reject that truth, they become a little bit more blind, a little bit more blind. Jesus the Man-child came so that these people would become blind. When Samuel came on the scene, the anointed of God, the Man-child of that day, born of Hannah, then we begin reading over and over that the Eli ministry's becoming blind. You see, in this day, folks, notice that God says, 1Sa 2:33 and the man of thine, [whom] I shall not cut off from mine altar, [shall be] to consume thine eyes, and to grieve thy heart. You know how grieving it is to those ministries when you go back and try to share truth with them, simple truth from the Word of God, and they don't want to hear it? And when they deny the Word that you bring to them they become more blind every time. It's interesting, you know, when the man who was healed mildly rebuked the Pharisees, they answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out (Joh.9:34). Who's not born in sin, right? But they're obviously pointing out that if he was blind from birth, his blindness was because of sin. Blindness from birth was quite common in those days. But they wouldn't let anybody teach them, they didn't want to hear from somebody who was not educated, not puffed up because of their religious system, or not somebody who went through their theological training. They don't want to hear anything from those people. You can bring them simple, simple truth; every time they deny it, they get more and more blind. They lose perception and discernment, just as this verse says: 1Sa 3:2 And it came to pass at that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to wax dim, so that he could not see), 3 and the lamp of God was not yet gone out. Now the “lamp of God” here, in a sense, means his prophetic ministry to the people of God, or it could also be talking about the lamp of the eye, as Jesus spoke about it (Matthew 6:22). But, either way, we know, for instance, in Zechariah, that God is going to raise up a foolish shepherd in the land Zec 11:15, 16. God has done it in every generation and in every cycle. Zec 11:15 And the Lord said unto me, Take unto thee yet again the instruments of a foolish shepherd. 16 For, lo, I will raise up a shepherd in the land, who will not visit those that are cut off, neither will seek those that are scattered, nor heal that which is broken, nor feed that which is sound…. Of course, we need to be fed the unleavened bread because that's the Seed of God that brings forth Christ in us, which is the only kind of fruit that God is interested in. 16 … Nor feed that which is sound; but he will eat the flesh of the fat [sheep]…. Once again, we see the plundering of the sheep, living off the sheep, getting fat off the sheep. 16 … And will tear their hoofs in pieces. The Lord pointed out to me one time so eloquently that hooves are what separate sheep from the world. This represents sanctification, which means separation from the world, and separation unto God. God wants us separate from the world, but connected to Him. When Moses went up on the mountain to meet God, He told him, “Hey, take your shoes off, Moses. You're standing on holy ground” (Exodus 3:2). In other words, God didn't want Moses separated from that holy ground. “Holy” and “sanctified” is the same word, right? God did not want Moses separate from holy ground, but out there in the world, God wanted Moses to keep his shoes on because we want to be separate from the world, we want to be sanctified. Well, when you take the foolish shepherd who is breaking the hooves off of the sheep, that means they're doing anything but sanctifying them from this world. Instead, they're making them worldly. Now, I'd like to share a few revelations with you.     The Church Emerging from Religion Servant - 12/30/2010 I see a huge iron structure --mountain-like. It is smooth and brown with bronze tones; smooth, glossy, shiny. It is warm and strong in appearance. Underneath and in the ground a little shoot cries, “Oh, Father, we desire Your presence!” Over and over the little shoot cries, “Oh, Father, we desire Your presence!” SUDDENLY their cry is heard of the Father. He sits forward on the throne. His eyebrows are shaped in a “V” as He looks at the mountain of religion preventing the little shoot. All the balconies of Heaven stand at attention. The earth begins to move to and fro. The mountain begins to sway as the shoot emerges from under the mountain by the power of God. GOD STANDS UP! Shaking, reeling such as never seen before! Then, with a mighty noise, the mountain reels, rips in half and falls in two pieces. The earth shakes: Destruction! Shaking! Such loud noise! Darkness; then all is still. The shoot, the true Church, emerges from the ground. God's glory -- bright, white, brilliant -- covers the shoot and the true refreshing begins. Joy! Strength! Power! The shoot rapidly grows in strength and power. Arms form, much like a mustard tree. This is the true refreshing; this is the power, glory, joy of the Lord. The earth will see and the earth will marvel at the strength, power and glory of the end-time Church. All this must be fulfilled. The Church is arrayed and ready for Jesus. Amen.   Destruction Comes for Apostate Leadership B.A. - 06/23/2015 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that I found myself in Jerusalem, back in Jesus' day, and I was looking up at the temple (a temple made by man's hands which God does not inhabit). Act 17:24 The God that made the world and all things therein, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; 25 neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; 26 and he made of one every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed seasons, and the bounds of their habitation; 27 that they should seek God, if haply they might feel after him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us: 28 for in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain even of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring. 29 Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by art and device of man. 30 The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked; but now he commanded men that they should all everywhere repent: 31 inasmuch as he hath appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead. There were stone steps leading down from the temple and the steps were being occupied by Pharisees and Sadducees. I was standing with a crowd of people in an open area a little ways from the temple and the stone steps, and just as I was looking around me in this crowd of people, I saw a man come forward out of the crowd who began to sternly address the men who were standing up (or exalting themselves) on the stone steps of the temple. I knew that the man speaking was Jesus. Pro 25:6 Put not thyself forward in the presence of the king, And stand not in the place of great men: 7 For better is it that it be said unto thee, Come up hither, Than that thou shouldest be put lower in the presence of the prince, Whom thine eyes have seen. And Mat 23:12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted. As Jesus began to speak, I began to recognize the “Word” He was speaking to these men, since I had heard these same words before. Here is what I heard: Mat 23:15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he is become so, ye make him twofold more a son of hell than yourselves. When Jesus spoke the first “Woe”, I heard a loud pop-like sound and what sounded like a crackling sound. I looked down upon the stone steps of the temple that these Pharisees and Sadducees were standing on and I noticed a large, deep crack had gone right up through the middle of those stone steps, and they were beginning to crack and crumble. I noticed that the deep crack was between the feet of a rather large and extremely overweight man. (This is the apostate leadership overcome by their flesh.) 16 Woe unto you, ye blind guides, that say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor. Then, when Jesus spoke the second “Woe”, I heard another much louder pop-like sound and more of the crackling sound. I looked around to see where this sound was coming from and I saw that a large, deep crack had gone all around the temple foundation and it was cracking up and crumbling as well. 17 Ye fools and blind: for which is greater, the gold, or the temple that hath sanctified the gold? 18 And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gift that is upon it, he is a debtor. 19 Ye blind: for which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift? 20 He therefore that sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon. 21 And he that sweareth by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein. 22 And he that sweareth by the heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon. 23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye tithe mint and anise and cummin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law, justice, and mercy, and faith: but these ye ought to have done, and not to have left the other undone. 24 Ye blind guides, that strain out the gnat, and swallow the camel! 25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye cleanse the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full from extortion and excess. 26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup and of the platter, that the outside thereof may become clean also. 27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchers, which outwardly appear beautiful, but inwardly are full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness. 28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but inwardly ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye build the sepulchers of the prophets, and garnish the tombs of the righteous, 30 and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we should not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. 31 Wherefore ye witness to yourselves, that ye are sons of them that slew the prophets. 32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers. 33 Ye serpents, ye offspring of vipers, how shall ye escape the judgment of hell? 34 Therefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them shall ye kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute from city to city: 35 that upon you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous unto the blood of Zachariah son of Barachiah, whom ye slew between the sanctuary and the altar. 36 Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation. 37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that killeth the prophets, and stoneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not! 38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. 39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. Just as Jesus had finished His Words to these men, the stone steps gave way and all of those men standing on the crumbling stone steps fell down into a deep pit that had opened up under the stone steps. And just after that happened, the entire temple came crashing down on top of them and covered them up. I noticed that from Matthew 23:15 through verse 39, there are “six” woes – “six” being the number of man. Also, I found it interesting that there is a “Woe” in Mathew 23:23 and the date of this dream is the 23rd and 23 means “death.” (This is clearly a reprobation of the apostate leadership and their fake temples, as Jesus pronounced in His day, and now we see a repeat of history in our day.)     Apostate Leaders Fleecing the Sheep B.A.- 04/01/2012 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I was in some type of city. It was strange because there were no people on the sidewalks or cars on the streets. There were these strange-looking brick buildings (buildings made by the flesh) everywhere I looked. (Sounds like the people of God slaving to make bricks for Pharaoh's buildings.) I decided to go inside one of these buildings. Once inside, I saw a familiar female TV preacher who was hosting an event. I also recognized several other female preachers as well, and others whose faces I recognized but could not remember their names. (Father said, 1Ti 2:12 But I permit not a woman to teach, nor to have dominion over a man, but to be in quietness. Read Word, Women and Authority.) There were elaborate tables set up with all kinds of party food and they were all playing games. Each time the hostess presented a new game, she would have on a different outfit. I watched this for a while, then I decided to leave and go see what was going on inside one of the other buildings. Once back out on the street, I saw a long, rectangular, brick building so I decided to go check it out. It was very dimly lit; I could barely see where I was going. This building was huge inside and it appeared to be some kind of art gallery. There were statues on the floor and statues mounted on the walls. Further on up ahead, I saw some people standing around a picture on the wall, so I went to see what they were looking at. As I got closer, all of these people were dressed up like pilots and they were looking and admiring a picture of various airplanes. Some were elaborate jets and some were small Cessna-type planes. I recognized some of these people to be leaders in the apostate church. (Big time prosperity preachers can't fly with us common folks. They have to have at least one private jet. Poor Jesus, He walked or rode a donkey.) Further on up ahead, I saw another group of people standing around a picture on the wall. As I got closer to these people, they were all dressed up like gladiators and they were looking at a picture of a large coliseum (I believe this to be representative of megachurches) and bragging about their own personal coliseum. (The competitive spirit is always trying to best those who are also a part of the body to see who is the greatest, as Jesus rebuked the disciples for.) Then, all the way to the back of the art gallery, I saw several rows of people seated and listening to a man standing at a podium. Behind this man was a large mural of TV and radio stations (the apostate leadership use the media to steal from God's people). He was teaching these people how to successfully get more money from their viewers and God's people in general. (Representing, using mass media to make mass money and live in luxury while not doing the works of the kingdom. Jesus said, Mat 10:8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons: freely ye received, freely give.) As I stood there listening to this, I cried out to the Lord, “Do you see what they are doing? They are scheming and preparing a plan on how they are going to fleece your sheep during tough economic times!” Then I heard a voice from heaven say, “Don't be concerned; their days are numbered.” Then I woke up. (Their greed, debt and sins against God's people will take them out.)     Last House Cleaning Shelly Lynch - 06/23/2013 (David's notes in red) I had a short dream this morning. I saw myself taking a speck out of the corner of my eye. Mat 7:5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye. Then I saw myself cleaning the corners of a building (Representing cleaning up the last hidden places of leaven), removing the last scraps of spoiled dog food (leaven of false teaching) from the building with a white paper towel (representing the pure Word). Php 3:2 Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the concision: (This could be the Bride's last cleansing before the anointing! And the Bride's ministry of removing the speck out of their brother's eye (which can only happen when she has the speck out of her own). Hallelujah!) (However, for Israel, which is a type of the Church and is not cleaned up at the beginning of the tribulation but through the tribulation, this text was given as a warning of coming tribulation.) Eze 7:1-10 Moreover, the word of the LORD came to me saying, And you, son of man, thus says the Lord GOD to the land of Israel, 'An end! The end is coming on the four corners of the land. 'Now the end is upon you, and I will send My anger against you; I will judge you according to your ways and bring all your abominations upon you. For My eye will have no pity on you, nor will I spare you, but I will bring your ways upon you, and your abominations will be among you; then you will know that I am the LORD!' Thus says the Lord GOD, 'A disaster, unique disaster, behold it is coming! 'An end is coming; the end has come! It has awakened against you; behold, it has come! Your doom has come to you, O inhabitant of the land. The time has come, the day is near-tumult rather than joyful shouting on the mountains. Now I will shortly pour out My wrath on you and spend My anger against you; judge you according to your ways and bring on you all your abominations. 'My eye will show no pity nor will I spare. I will repay you according to your ways, while your abominations are in your midst; then you will know that I, the LORD, do the smiting. Behold, the day! Behold, it is coming! Your doom has gone forth; the rod has budded, arrogance has blossomed. (Chastening will bring the elect to righteousness. Isa 26:10-11  Let favor be showed to the wicked, yet will he not learn righteousness; in the land of uprightness will he deal wrongfully, and will not behold the majesty of Jehovah.  11  Jehovah, thy hand is lifted up, yet they see not: but they shall see thy zeal for the people, and be put to shame; yea, fire shall devour thine adversaries. Including their flesh. (The persecution from the apostate Church toward the faithful in the Lord can be seen here.) Act 5:28-29 Saying Did not we straitly command you that ye should not teach in this name? and, behold, ye have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us. Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, 'We ought to obey God rather than men'. And verses 40-42 And to him (Gamaliel) they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go. And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name. And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ. (Considering these two paths, it would be good for the disciples of Jesus to heed our instructions to be spotless and blemishless in the Bride company.) 2Pe 3:14 Wherefore, beloved seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. 1Th 3:13 To the end He may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints. Eph 5:27 that He might present it to Himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing (speck); but that it should be holy and without blemish. And 2Co 7:1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit perfecting holiness in the fear of God. Sandy Shaw shared at this same time while in prayer she heard, “This is the last cleaning”, and we all believed this would be the cleaning of the Bride of the Lord before the tribulation. She then asked for a word and got by random: 2Ch 29:15 And they gathered their brethren, and sanctified themselves, and went in, according to the commandment of the king by the words of Jehovah, to cleanse the house of Jehovah. 16 And the priests went in unto the inner part of the house of Jehovah, to cleanse it, and brought out all the uncleanness that they found in the temple of Jehovah into the court of the house of Jehovah. And the Levites took it, to carry it out abroad to the brook Kidron. 17 Now they began on the first [day] of the first month to sanctify, and on the eighth day of the month came they to the porch of Jehovah; and they sanctified the house of Jehovah in eight days: and on the sixteenth day of the first month they made an end. 18 Then they went in to Hezekiah the king within [the palace], and said, We have cleansed all the house of Jehovah, and the altar of burnt-offering, with all the vessels thereof, and the table of showbread, with all the vessels thereof. 19 Moreover all the vessels, which king Ahaz in his reign did cast away when he trespassed, have we prepared and sanctified; and, behold, they are before the altar of Jehovah. 20 Then Hezekiah the king arose early, and gathered the princes of the city, and went up to the house of Jehovah. Hezekiah, as a type of the Man-child, “went up to the house of the Lord on the third day” and this was after the failed Senacherib Beast attack on the Bride when they were smitten. She then got by random, “into the ark” in Gen 7:13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark; and we read back in verse 9 there went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, male and female, as God commanded Noah. 10 And it came to pass after the seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

The Tongue Conquers Enemies  (Audio) David Eells 9/22/24   A shaking is on the way. War appears to be breaking out on the surface.  The Covert war between the Alliance and the DS is likely to break out in larger overt operations. The DS has invaded the cities with terrorists and military-aged men and CCP Chinese along with others that are expanding the voter rolls within, in order to overthrow President Trump and the Alliance. They are preparing for terrorist acts because of the Brunson case has gone to the Supreme Court which will overthrow the DS government.  This from Operation Disclosure: The Brunson Brothers Voter Fraud Case before the Supreme Court asked a simple question: Did Congress investigate 50 formally filed allegations of voter fraud before certifying the 2020 Election? Obviously not, and rumor was that the Supreme Court had already ruled such on the case. We awaited an announcement likely in favor of Brunson that would dissolve the Biden Administration and all of Congress, plus bring in Martial Law until a new election was held.  Five separate assassination teams actively targeting President Trump. Three are foreign, two domestic. Three Assassination Attempts have come in the last few weeks. Your prayers and faith have cast down all five of these teams. President Trump is insulated.  Congressman Tim Burchett exposed the CIA's Sinister MK ULTRA plot to assassinate Trump! amg-news.com.  As we will see below your prayers and confession will cast most of the lawlessness down.  The DS anarchists plan on mass anarchy and destruction of cities and the Alliance military is being spread coast to coast before the announcement of the Supreme Court ruling in order to defend the cities and liberty from the lawless left who will not accept democracy. We cast down their weapons of warfare.     A New War Is Coming   Michael Boldea Jr. - 04/06/2007   Jeremiah 50:22 A sound of battle is in the land, and of great destruction. James 5:8 You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.   I dreamt I was hearing what were at first faint hoof beats, but the closer they got, the louder they grew, until it was a thundering roar of not one or two horses but what seemed like hundreds. I felt as though the ground beneath me was shaking from the onrushing horses, and the sound of them became so loud, that I suddenly awoke in my bed. As I blinked a few times, adjusting to the darkness in my room, I noticed a shadow at the foot of my bed. I blinked again, and there stood the same man I have seen on previous occasions, dressed in battle armor, his hands resting atop each other before him, on the hilt of his sword.   “What is the meaning of what I just dreamt?” I asked, somehow knowing he had come to give me the interpretation.   “What you heard”, he began, “were the chariots of war, and they are swiftly approaching. A new war is coming, but it will be unlike this present one. Speak as you have spoken, pray as you have prayed, and walk as you have walked for dark days will soon come upon the land to which you are returning. Even now their enemies plot, even now their enemies unite under one banner, and soon they will make their intentions known to the world. There is no refuge but in the Father, and He will guide and protect those who know His voice”. (And confess His promises.)  I blinked again, and the man was gone, and I was left to ponder the words I had heard. I struggled with whether I should make this dream public, for I know the reaction that some will have to it, and the last thing I desire is to stir fear in the heart of any man. After much prayer I felt I was supposed to publish the dream, and though some may receive it as a reason to fear, the true children of God will receive it for what it was, the forewarning of a loving Father, preparing His children for what is to come. God's desire for us is not ignorance, but rather knowledge, that we may prepare our hearts, in prayer and fasting, that we may draw closer to Him, that we make Him our place of refuge long before hardship forces us to seek one. The wise man prepares, while the foolhardy is caught unaware.   Jeremiah 19:15 Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: 'Behold, I will bring on this city and on all her towns all the doom that I have pronounced against it, because they have stiffened their necks that they might not hear My words.       Terrorists Hiding in the States   Michael Boldea Jr. - May 5, 2003  I dreamt I was on a very high ridge, with a great valley spanning out beneath me. The night was calm, the moon and stars shining brightly in the sky. As I looked around trying to get my bearings, I was stunned to see my grandfather (Dumitru Duduman) standing next to me. He looked young and vibrant, his hands in his pockets, and a smile on his face.   “Interesting times ahead my boy, interesting times ahead”, he said. For a minute I was so shocked I couldn't say anything. Finally I blurted out the only thing that came to mind, “They have been interesting ever since you left. Trial after trial, hardship after hardship”.   “Now you know how Jesus felt when He walked the earth”, he answered, “always doing good, always in the Father's will, yet always mocked and rejected, always misunderstood and despised. Besides, it was all a test anyway”.  “A test of what?” I asked.   “For you personally, God wanted to see if you would stay true to your calling even when all seemed lost. He was preparing you and purging you, refining you, for the time when He will use you, and speak to you as He spoke to me”.   Before I could say anything, he lifted his hand to stop me. His fingers were no longer crooked from his arthritis, they were straight, and normal.   “I know what you're going to say my boy, it's not what you want, it's not what you asked for. But you should know by now it is the task you were chosen for. In this you have no choice, besides where can you hide from the face of God? Men have tried before, look how it turned out in the end. To reject what God has planned for you is to deny God. You know what the consequences are”. Unable to find the words to answer, I simply nodded my understanding and allowed him to continue speaking.   “As for why the ministry had to go through what it went through, God has already spoken that to your heart. You already know the answer. God wants all that know of this work, to be certain of one thing. It is He who sustains it; it is He who blesses it, and not the hands of men or their gimmicks. Do you think any of it would still be here after all that has happened if not for God? Never doubt Gods promises concerning this work, or His ability to fulfill them. Hope in God never disappoints; hope in man always leads to disillusionment.” (Amen. God has been preparing and sanctifying His Reformers to be leaders for the soon coming tribulation.)   “Now for the reason I am here. I was sent to show you something. Look and see”, he said, pointing down to the valley below. As I looked, I saw the outline of a map of America then the outlines of states began taking shape. As I continued to watch this map solidify, small lights began to flicker on and off in some of the states. I recognized California, Illinois, Michigan, Arizona, Washington State, Florida, and New York, among the states that lit up. The light was rhythmic, almost like a homing beacon, constant in its progression. I continued watching the lights go on and off, waiting for something else to happen, but nothing did. Finally I said, “I don't understand. What does this mean?”   “These are the places where those who were sent here long ago, to bring fear and cause chaos, have situated themselves. They lay in waiting, planning and plotting destruction. They are as coiled serpents, looking forward to the hour when they will be loosed upon this nation. If God's children pray, once more will He delay the season of sorrow that is yet to come”. (I believe He has done this.)   We stood on the ridge in silence for a long time. After a while the lights stopped flickering in the valley below, and the map began to fade away. Suddenly my grandfather turned his head toward the east, and began to sniff the air as he used to do. “Storms coming my boy, and it's a bad one”, he said. “Now give an old man a hug and let me be on my way. Be vigilant and work while you still can, it's all God asks of any of His servants. If the Father wills it, we will speak again”.   As I hugged my grandfather, I began to hear the rumbling of a great storm. The sky darkened overhead, and the booming of thunder was now audible. In my dream I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again, I was in my bed, awake. I wiped at my cheeks with the back of my hand, and realized I had been crying. As my eyes began to adjust to the dark, I saw that my wife was sitting up in bed, staring at me. When I asked her why she wasn't sleeping, she said I'd been talking in my sleep for over thirty minutes. I tried going back to sleep but sleep would not come. Finally I gave up trying, went into the kitchen and prayed until morning.   Over the past few days, I have spent much time in prayer as to whether I should share this dream or not. I believe that I am supposed to. My prayer is that no one would perceive it as a reason for fear, but rather a reason to hope. God hears the prayers of His children, and as long as He encourages us to pray, we must do so without reservation. The day will come, a day I anticipate with great dread, when God will speak to His children as He spoke to Jeremiah, and say do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry for them any longer. For now, while we still can, may we ceaselessly bring our petitions before the Lord.       Our Secret Place of Safety   David Eells   Everyone is looking for the place of safety in the tribulations to come. One man says the safe place is to be with the Ark of the Covenant, which is said to be in a Chapel next to St Mary of Zion, Ethiopian Orthodox Church in Axum, Ethiopia. I believe that Solomon gave a copy of the Ark to the Queen of Sheba who carried it there.   Be that as it may; God no longer dwells in houses made by men, so the ark is a relic. (Acts 7:47) But Solomon built him (God) a house. (48) Howbeit the Most High dwelleth not in [houses] made with hands. That just tells us that the ark in the temple was just a type and shadow of Jesus in His body. As He said, “I in them, and thou in me, that they may be perfected into one” (Jn.17:23). God now dwells in the ark of Christ and Christ now dwells in the Body of Christ. In us He is the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein [was] a golden pot holding the manna (of the Word in us), and Aaron's rod that budded (a sign of the authority of the High Priest in us), and the tables of the covenant (of the law written on our heart) (Heb.9:4).   The presence of the Ark ensured Israel of victory and protection. When the Philistines captured the Ark it brought a curse on them so terrible that they sent it home with an offering. On the other hand Jesus said in (Mat.5:13) Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.   Another brother asked me if I thought the Christians will flee for safety to the city of Petra in Jordan. I told him that I thought Petra would be far too small to accommodate them and it would be a natural trap where they could be wiped out. I do believe that some natural Jews will find shelter in Petra, which is the Greek word for “rock”. However, spiritual Jews who are circumcised in heart, have the spiritual Rock of Jesus as a place of safety. Jesus said that standing on Him was the place where Hell had no power over us. (Mat.16:18) And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter (Gr: “Petros”, meaning a piece of the rock), and upon this rock (Greek: Petra) I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. Jesus is our rock of safety.   Peter himself said that Jesus was the Rock that we are to be founded on. (1Pet.2:5) ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. (6) Because it is contained in scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: And he that believeth on him shall not be put to shame. (7) For you therefore that believe is the preciousness: but for such as disbelieve, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; (8) and, A stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence; for they stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed. The disobedient stumble through unbelief in the Word and so are not founded on the Rock. Judgment will take them away wherever they hide.   Those who are obedient to the Word through faith are on the safety of the Rock. (Mat.7:24) Every one therefore that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock: (25) and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and if fell not: for it was founded upon the rock. (26) And every one that heareth these words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand: (27) and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall thereof. The apostate churches belittle obedience to the Word because of their unbelief.  We don't stand on the Rock in our own strength but our faith gives us God's strength. My wife had a dream of me after we first became Christians. She saw me standing on a Rock in the middle of the ocean. I had leg braces on like crippled people wear to strengthen their legs. I perceived that the Rock was Christ or the Word and the ocean was the curse as was the flood. In our own strength we are crippled and not able to stand on the Word, but the filling of His Spirit and faith in His promises empowers us to be what we normally are not.   It has come to me that only the rich in a time of economic collapse and wrath would be able to fly to the city of Petra, but salvation is for the poor. No amount of money can buy us safety, because it is not a place but a state of being. (Pr.11:4) Riches profit not in the day of wrath; but righteousness delivereth from death. (6) The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them; But the treacherous shall be taken in their own iniquity.   Faith in the Lord makes Him our secret refuge. (Psa.91:1) He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. Notice the confession that puts us on the Rock. (2) I will say of Jehovah, He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in whom I trust. The secret place of safety will be hidden to many who are only called “Christian” but the righteous are safe right in the middle of judgment. (7) A thousand shall fall at thy side, And ten thousand at thy right hand; [But] it shall not come nigh thee. (8) Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold, And see the reward of the wicked. (The good confession that puts us in safety.)  9 For thou, O Jehovah, art my refuge! Thou hast made the Most High thy habitation; 10  There shall no evil befall thee, Neither shall any plague come nigh thy tent. God's angels will protect the righteous wherever they are. (11) For he will give his angels charge over thee, To keep thee in all thy ways. (12) They shall bear thee up in their hands, Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. They do this for the righteous who believe. (Gal.3:13) Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: (14) that upon the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus.   A friend of mine had a very clear dream about the coming invasion of America. He said everyone in the Gulf States was fleeing toward the north to get as far away from the invading army as possible. He was going to get on a shuttle and go too, but the Lord told him to give his place to someone else and sent him and his family into a local city that had been nuked. He had no fear of the radiation or the enemy. It is obvious that God's people will not need to follow the world's example. Paul was not hiding but sharing the Gospel in the most effective time to do so. He said, “[in] journeyings often, [in] perils of rivers, [in] perils of robbers, [in] perils from [my] countrymen, [in] perils from the Gentiles, [in] perils in the city, [in] perils in the wilderness, [in] perils in the sea, [in] perils among false brethren” (2 Cor.11:26).   The Lord told me that this time represented the second 3½ years of the tribulation period. Paul also said, “what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me” (2Tim.3:11). He also said, “But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me; that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. The Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will save me unto his heavenly kingdom” (2Tim.4:17,18).   If one is called to be a martyr, they will have the protection of God until their testimony is finished and even then only their flesh will be given up for a sacrifice. (Rev.11:7) And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that cometh up out of the abyss shall make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.      Agree with the Blessed Provisions   David  We are in a battle which can be won by those who will speak the Word of the Lord and confess His promises for safety and provision. The Bible tells us that Death and life are in the power of the tongue (Pro.18:21). Let's look at how we can cooperate with God in the process of sanctification so that we are those who speak life and partake of the benefits of the Kingdom and able to give them to others. (Jas.3:8) But the tongue can no man tame; [it is] a restless evil, [it is] full of deadly poison. (9) Therewith bless we the Lord and Father; and therewith curse we men, who are made after the likeness of God: (10) out of the same mouth cometh forth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be. (11) Doth the fountain send forth from the same opening [sweet water] and bitter? (12) can a fig tree, my brethren, yield olives, or a vine figs? neither [can] salt water yield sweet. We want to learn by the grace of God to bring forth those “sweet waters” so that we will not suffer with the wicked.  When Moses and the children of Israel came up to Marah, meaning “bitterness” (Exo 15:22-25), they couldn't drink the water. God commanded that a tree be cast into the waters so that they would be made sweet. Marah represents the bitter waters of the fountain, or mouth, which were cured by the tree, representing the Cross. The Cross has conquered our tongue and has given us this gift of the sweet waters so we can bring forth blessings, instead of the cursings, out of this spring of our mouth. Believe this.  The Bible also tells us, The heart of the wise instructeth his mouth, And addeth learning to his lips (Pro.16:23). So we want to educate ourselves to be swift to hear, slow to speak and slow to wrath (Jas.1:19). We need to think about what we are saying and disagree with the devil because he tempts us to speak the things under the curse and not the things of the Kingdom. The Lord is helping us and He has already conquered the tongue, which no man can tame, but the Lord can through His Word and promises. Jesus was the sacrifice Who gave us a new tongue through the reconciliation.   It says in (Jos.1:6) Be strong and of good courage; for thou shalt cause this people to inherit the land which I sware unto their father to give them. (7) Only be strong and very courageous, to observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest have good success whithersoever thou goest. Notice that God said that Joshua (Hebrew: “Jesus”) was going to cause His people to be brought into their inherited Promised Land. This land belongs to us, not every Pagen alien they can invade us with and we will win this battle with them.  We know that the Promised Land is also us. Heb 6:7-8 For the land which hath drunk the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessing from God: 8 but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned. Jesus bore this curse let us confess Him before men.  The Son of God is being manifested in His people. (Col.1:27) … Christ in you, the hope of glory. He is a product of the Word of God being assimilated in our life and mouth; Christ is the Word of God (John 1:14). He saved us from our enemies. (Luk.1:70-74) (As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets that have been from of old), 71 Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us; ...74 To grant unto us that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies Should serve him without fear,  You crucify the spiritual man when you walk and talk in the flesh and for those who have been filled with the Holy Spirit and enlightened, who have tasted of the heavenly gift, this will become a curse unto them. (Heb.6:7) For the land which hath drunk the rain (Those who have partaken of the Word from heaven.) that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receiveth blessing from God: (8) but if it beareth thorns and thistles, it is rejected and nigh unto a curse; whose end is to be burned. The word “rejected” is adokimos, meaning, specifically, “reprobated.” The apostle Paul said that he kept his body under control if, perhaps, after he had preached to others, he himself would be “rejected” or “reprobated” (1Co 9:27). This has been demonstrated to us.   God doesn't reprobate land; He reprobates people. The Bible is very plain; in the original Greek, we are God's “tilled land” (1Co.3:9). God wants to plow this earth, our natural life, and plant His seed in the midst of it, bringing forth the fruit of Jesus Christ in us. The land that Joshua wants to cause us to inherit is referring to our new fruit and life. Part of that is our bold faith. The spiritual man, the Israelite, is to conquer this land with the edge of the Sword, the Word of God. The spiritual man is to take the land from the enemy, the Canaanite and live in his house, our body, and plant his crop and bear the fruit of the spiritual man.   (Jos.1:7) Only be strong and very courageous, to observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest have good success whithersoever thou goest. Notice that turning to the right or left would cause failure to take our Promised Land from the enemies.   I had a dream many years ago where I was standing on a mountain, looking down into a valley and a road that went down the side of this mountain. The road had a ditch or trench down the middle of it. I was in a car, with one set of tires on one side of the trench and the other set on the other side, going down this road to the bottom of the mountain. I realized I couldn't turn to the right or the left because, if I did, two wheels would fall into the trench and that would be the end of any progress; I wouldn't go any farther. I steered very carefully, not to the right and not to the left, as I went down this mountain. Let us speak what the Word says about us.  The Lord gave me the understanding afterward that this mountain represented the kingdom of the world – man, self or the old life. I was to navigate this road and not turn to the right or left, until I got off of this mountain. As soon as I was at the bottom, I immediately realized that there were enemies everywhere. To the extent that we humble ourselves to the Word of God, going down the mountain of “self,” the more enemies we will have, even religious enemies or so-called “Christian” enemies. (2Ti.3:12) … All that would live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But as we hold fast to the confession of our hope the enemies will be conquered as our faction was and the political faction shall be. (Luk10:19) Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you.  Most of the persecution toward Jesus and the disciples came from the people who called themselves the “people of God” but were not. When I got to the bottom and knew that the enemy was everywhere, I went under a bush and there I found tools that I picked up, and treated them as if they were treasure. These tools were hammers, screwdrivers, wrenches and so on. The Lord later revealed to me that these tools represented the authority to bind and loose (Mat 18:18), as all of these tools do. The Lord made me to know I was coming to a time, when under the bush, I was going to manifest more of this authority. Let us bind our enemies in the name of Jesus.   At the time of the burning bush, Moses was given authority to go into Egypt to act for the Lord. I've been binding and loosing for many years but I believe that we're coming to a time of real power from God. It's only going to come to those who humble themselves and don't turn to the right or to the left, but stay on God's road, a self-crucifying path of obedience to the Word of God. When I picked up these tools, I went up another mountain, which represented Mount Zion. I went through the front doors of a great temple, which I believe represented the New Jerusalem on Mount Zion and I saw Jesus sitting on His throne. I went over and sat down next to Him, as He said that overcomers would do. (Rev.3:21) He that overcometh, I will give to him to sit down with me in my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne. This is the throne of dominion over our enemies.  As I was speaking with Jesus, I heard people trying to come into the throne room by a back way and not through the door that I had come through. Jesus is the door in John 10:1. Jesus saw these people and said, “Don't worry about them; they can't come in here.” So these were people looking for “throne room” authority but they wouldn't humble themselves to the Word of God personally. The Pharisees only had physical authority as in our day. God will give authority only to those who overcome according to Rev 2:26.   Back to (Jos.1:8) This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate thereon day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. The spiritual man speaks the Word so that as you walk, it will bring good success when conquering our Promised Land for the Lord. The first fruits are approaching this point. We must speak according to God's promises, even in the midst of the fiery trial. As Christians, we “calleth the things that are not, as though they were” (Rom.4:17). We speak the things we have according to promise and not according to what we see in the world. This is how we change the things around us. This is God's plan. We let the Word, or our agreement with the Word in what we say, come from our mouth so that we may have good success in conquering our Promised Land.   Further on in Joshua, we see that he is still leading the people of God to conquer their Promised Land in order to put to death their enemies there. In this particular case, the head of God's people, Joshua, is conquering the Amorites. (Jos.10:12) Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel; and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; And thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon. I believe God is showing us here to what extent He would go to give our enemy into our hands, if we would speak the Word with boldness.   (Jos.10:8) And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands; there shall not a man of them stand before thee. On a personal and spiritual level that “man” He was referring to was the old man who lived in the Promised Land of our life before the new man took possession. He represented the lusts of the flesh, which would not be able to stand. On a physical and political level it would be the DS and their invading army. Joshua and the children of Israel were having victory over the Amorites but they were running out of time. Remember, the Lord said that if we confess Him before men, He shall confess us before the Father in Mat 10:32.   Likewise, Joshua confessed in the sight of Israel. He was bold and full of faith and he spoke it right in front of Israel, Sun, stand thou still upon Gibeon; And thou, Moon, in the valley of Aijalon (Jos.10:12). (13) And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, Until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stayed in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.   Now at first, I thought God just stopped Earth from spinning, but I later realized that the moon stayed in the same relative position as the sun and Earth didn't spin. It's possible the whole solar system had stopped. This is a very dangerous thing to do, unless you also control the rest of the universe. Things would tend toward collision down the road somewhere. Can you imagine that God stopped the solar system and more, just so Israel could conquer their enemy? What kind of other big miracle can you imagine that God would do for us to give us victory over our enemy? God gave the Israelites an awesome victory over their enemies! Of course, they needed the time and, for a whole day, the system was frozen. We have all heard of NASA finding the missing day so they could calculate where things would be at a certain time.  People claim that God only did that back then and does not do that today, simply because of the verse right after it. (Jos.10:14) And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel. Well, the Lord still hearkens unto our voice, for many people speak miracles today and they come to pass as they did in the Bible long after Joshua. The key here is “voice of a man” The creation now hearkens to the voice of God through man.  Jesus said, the words that I have spoken unto you are spirit, and are life (Joh.6:63), meaning they are His Spirit and His life. In other words, it's the life of God living in us; it's the spiritual man who speaks in agreement with the Word of God. Also, it is the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God (Eph.6:17). Therefore, it's not as if God is hearkening unto the voice of a man, but He is hearkening unto the voice of His sons. That spiritual man in us is not man, but God. The Son of God is manifesting in His people speaking His Words out of us. When we come into agreement with the Word, we can be trusted. The Lord said, If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatsoever ye will, and it shall be done unto you (Joh.15:7). Why? The Word in you is trustworthy to God. If you fill yourself up with the Word and you desire earnestly to walk in agreement with it, God says you're trustworthy.   A long time after Joshua, the Lord wrote this: (Isa.45:11) Thus saith the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: Ask me of the things that are to come; concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands, command ye me. Does God really do that? When you command something to be done, like when His disciples commanded healings, deliverances, provision and so on, God fulfilled it. God gave them the authority, which is the right to use power and it's what we do when we speak in agreement with the Word of God. In effect, what we are doing is commanding God, since He said that if we do, He will do it and Jesus said the same.   Psalm 8 was spoken concerning the natural Adam and his seed, but also in type to spiritual Adam, Jesus Christ, and His seed. (Psa.8:6) Thou makest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet. This was said of man and the Son of man. Jesus said that God had given Him authority because He is son of man (Joh.5:27). Man was given authority on the earth but when Adam sinned, he lost that authority to Satan. However, we gained it back through Jesus Christ because He was faithful. We now have this authority over the works of God's hands when we speak in agreement with the Word of God and He fulfills it. (Lam.3:37) Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?   The next thing we see in Joshua is that they went after the five kings who were ruling the Promised Land. (Jos.10:16) And these five kings fled, and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah. (17) And it was told Joshua, saying, The five kings are found, hidden in the cave at Makkedah. (18) And Joshua said, Roll great stones unto the mouth of the cave, and set men by it to keep them: (19) but stay not ye; pursue after your enemies, and smite the hindmost of them; suffer them not to enter into their cities: for the Lord your God hath delivered them into your hand. The first thing they did was trap the five kings in the cave and then they rolled great stones over the mouth of the cave.   Adam was created from the dust of the earth and this old man is earthly, but as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly (1Co.15:49). We are both earthly and heavenly, a spiritual man of the heavens and the carnal man of the earth represented by this cave in the earth. The carnal man of the earth has a mouth and here it's called “the mouth of the cave.” The Lord made the spiritual men roll these great stones over the mouth of the cave. The five kings represent the five senses and the spiritual man put stones, which represent the Word, over the mouth so the carnal senses are not permitted to speak and bring a curse.   The Bible says that senses must be exercised by the Word of God so that we understand the difference between good and evil. (Heb.5:13) For every one that partaketh of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe. (14) But solid food is for fullgrown men, [even] those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil. Born-again people have born-again senses. As spiritual men, we must have spiritual senses. Our carnal senses trap and rule over us and our land when we live according to what we see, hear and feel as the old man and the world does.   God teaches us how to spiritually see in (2Pe.1:3) Seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue. We see that God has already provided us everything that pertains unto life and godliness! Now you have the eyes of a dove (Son 1:15). You have the eyes of the Spirit when you begin to see that the promises are true, but the world is transitory. (2Pe.1:4) Whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises (the stones at the mouth of the cave); that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world by lust.   Having eyes to see, we can partake of God's nature. We will have spiritual eyes, ears, touch, spiritual smell (or discernment), spiritual taste and words. We've been given these spiritual gifts that enable the spiritual man to take over. The Israelites had captured the five kings who ruled the Promised Land in a cave and they closed up the mouth with great stones. And we know, Jesus is the Stone; He's the Rock which is the Word of God. These great stones represent the great promises of the Word of God. We're adding learning to our lips, which are the “mouth of the cave.”   When we study the Word of God, we learn and see what we are supposed to say and what we're not supposed to say. It gives us restraint to not say things that would permit a curse upon our life. The Israelites had to conquer the Promised Land, and conquer these kings that ruled over the carnal man and bring the curse upon him. And this is what the parable points to – rolling out those stones in front of the mouth. (Eph.4:29) Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for edifying (building-up) as the need may be, that it may give grace to them that hear.   We can see that we can apply many verses when speaking of conquering the DS with all their invaders who are getting ready to overthrow this land we live in. Just a couple come quickly to mind. (Mat.18:18-19) Verily I say unto you, What things soever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and what things soever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 19 Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father who is in heaven. And (Mar.11:23-24) Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he saith cometh to pass; he shall have it. 24 Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. These will come in useful when the invaders rise up.  If we see and walk in the Spirit, then we speak in agreement with the Spirit. (2Co.7:1) Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. Our nature is changed by the Word of God when …we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit. (2Co 3:18) When we see a need, such as someone living under the curse, we should speak truth with grace to them to overcome, grace to meet that need, whatever it may be. When we speak according to the Kingdom, we are meeting someone's need for God and His benefits. Saving this country from the invaders to whatever extent God permits is a need.  They will be permitted to persecute the apostate Church for it is in rebellion to the Word of our covenant. (Col.3:17) And whatsoever ye do, in word or in deed, [do] all in the name (Greek: “nature, character and authority”) of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Do everything as if you are representing Him because you are an ambassador of Christ (2Co 5:20), so speak His words to this world and His enemies. We're called to confess Him before men always and to speak in His name.   (1Pe.4:11) If any man speaketh, speaking as it were oracles of God; if any man ministereth, [ministering] as of the strength which God supplieth: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen. When we speak as an oracle of God, that is His Word coming out of us, we're letting the spiritual man, who is in communication with God through our spirit, do the speaking. We don't let the carnal man, the flesh, do the speaking.   To walk holy is to walk separate. The Greek word for “holy” is the same word for “sanctified” and it means “separate”; that is, separated from the world, from sin, separated unto God. We speak His words, think His thoughts and we do His works because He lives in us. The more we do that, the more we grow in holiness. It's the place of Holiness, preservation and provision. Without holiness, no man can see the Lord (Heb 12:14). Holiness is what we grow in when we bear the fruit of Jesus Christ. It is separation from the old man, who is moved and ruled by the carnal senses, unto the new man, who is ruled according to the spiritual senses.   Now let's go to (Isa.11:2) And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. (3) And his delight shall be in the fear of the Lord; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears; (4) but with righteousness shall he judge the poor (This is poor in the things of the Kingdom), and decide with equity for the meek of the earth; and he shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth; and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked. (5) And righteousness shall be the girdle of his waist, and faithfulness the girdle of his loins.   He's talking about Christ in His first-fruits Man-child in the end-time who will not walk according to the carnal senses because he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears (Isa.11:3). Instead, we are to have our senses exercised to discern good from evil (Heb 5:14) by the Word of God, which is the washing of water with the word (Eph.5:26). As our senses are exercised, we begin to see and hear spiritually; we begin to hear and speak the Voice of the Spirit.   It's similar to when David went to slay Goliath, the giant in the land. He went to the brook and pulled out those five smooth stones that were exercised by the washing of the water, which represents the Word. He took only one of those stones and he felled Goliath (1Sa 17). David spoke it to him ahead of time, declaring that he would take off Goliath's head and feed him to the birds. That's very bold! And because David spoke it, that's exactly what he did. The stone, or sense, that David was using was the tongue. The tongue senses tastes but it also speaks the Word. David conquered Goliath because he had spiritual senses.   Now we can return to Joshua. He told the Israelites to go after their enemies, since the five kings were already trapped in the cave and closed off with the stones. Now they were able to conquer those whom the kings had ruled over. (Jos.10:20) And it came to pass, when Joshua and the children of Israel had made an end of slaying them with a very great slaughter, till they were consumed, and the remnant which remained of them had entered into the fortified cities, (21) that all the people returned to the camp to Joshua at Makkedah in peace: none moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.   (22) Then said Joshua, Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth those five kings unto me out of the cave. (23) And they did so, and brought forth those five kings unto him out of the cave, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, the king of Eglon. (24) And it came to pass, when they brought forth those kings unto Joshua, that Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said unto the chiefs of the men of war that went with him, Come near, put your feet upon the necks of these kings. And they came near, and put their feet upon the necks of them.   They let them out of the cave and they had to keep them from speaking, so they put their feet on their necks. It reminds me of the dream I've shared before about being in a war with a giant and not letting the old man speak. When he did, he said, “Bigger, bigger, bigger!” We have a lot of giants around us – a lot of big problems and a lot of big enemies. But we can't let the old man, whom I captured in the dream and who was in bondage to me, speak out of our mouth. I didn't want to let him speak because the old man has the authority to make the situation worse and make the enemy stronger and bigger. I refused him and demanded that the giant be reduced, saying, “No! Smaller, smaller, smaller.”   Similarly, the Israelites put their feet on the kings' necks, causing the five senses to not speak or to rule over the body. (Jos.10:25) And Joshua said unto them, Fear not, nor be dismayed; be strong and of good courage: for thus shall the Lord do to all your enemies against whom ye fight. (Notice, you speak the Word and the Lord will do it. In Rev.12:11, the devil and his angels were cast down by the “word of their testimony” of the saints.)  (26) And afterward Joshua smote them, and put them to death, and hanged them on five trees: and they were hanging upon the trees until the evening. Notice that all of our enemies, firstly our old man, will be conquered in this way. Father said against Babylon in Jer.51:3 …Utterly destroy all her army. We are not permitted to wrestle with flesh nor use fleshly weapons but to “resist not” and if opportunity arises we are to preach Christ to them.  But we have authority over all their power and that includes the principalities and powers. (Luk.10:19) Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. As an example to us, before Jesus' time of crucifixion, when the Jews sought to throw him off a cliff, he just passed through their midst unharmed. I was shot at by an assassin from close range and my angel made the bullet disappear. A tractor back blade was thrown straight at my head by a demon, while Michael watched, but all I felt was a finger on my nose pushing me to the ground with zero pain. That was just ahead of the blade. Michael was sure it had hit and killed me.  My tractor wheel fell into a hole and the tractor was flipping into a gully. I was looking straight down at the ground when the tractor uprighted with me stuck in the seat. It was a work of our satanists. Several other times I escaped them. (Luk.1:68) ...For he hath visited and wrought redemption for his people... 71 Salvation from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us...74 To grant unto us that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies Should serve him without fear.  Jesus Christ was hanged upon a tree, or cross, and they wanted to take Him down before evening, too. Jesus also was buried in a cave. So why is God applying this to the senses of the old man? (Gal.2:20) I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me. That includes our five senses. The Lord has already taken care of this problem when He was crucified on that tree and you were crucified with Him. You have been given this gift of the new man, for by one offering he hath perfected forever them that are sanctified (Heb.10:14).  We walk in the spirit according to these divine senses that are attuned to the Kingdom of Heaven. These senses see how to walk in the Kingdom. It comes quite naturally to us to walk in the world but it comes supernaturally to us to walk in the Kingdom; that is, to have our senses exercised by the Word of God to see and hear the way God sees and hears, and to smell, or discern, the way God does. It is also to have our emotions in communication with God.   We have the victory over the old man and his senses because he's dead and the new man, Who is Jesus Christ, lives in you. Because of your faith and speaking that faith, God will bring it to pass. He will do it through our faith and not by our works. (Eph.2:8) For by grace have ye been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, [it is] the gift of God; (9) not of works, that no man should glory.   Father, we pray that You will (Psa.141:3) Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; Keep the door of my lips. Amen.  So we know that in the Kingdom of Heaven, there is singing, praise, worship and thanksgiving to the Lord our King. When we do this, we are bringing more of His Kingdom down here to earth. (Mat.6:10)  We have ‘authority over all the power of the enemy' (Luk.10:19). We have power in praise. When we praise the Lord, He gives us the victory!       Worship and Praise   Vines Expository Dictionary on the Greek word Worship: “to make obeisance, do reverence to” (from pros, “towards”, and kuneo, “to kiss”), is the most frequent word rendered “to worship”. It is used of an act of homage or reverence. In other words, worship is an act of love toward God.   Father is looking for those who worship Him with their all: (Joh.4:21) Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father. (22) Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews. (23) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers. (24) God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth. There is much fake worship -- words without heart and spirit.   Worship is the way to bring God's presence: (Psa.100:1) Make a joyful noise unto Jehovah, all ye lands. (2) Serve Jehovah with gladness: Come before his presence with singing. (3) Know ye that Jehovah, he is God: It is he that hath made us, and we are his; We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. (4) Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, And into his courts with praise: Give thanks unto him, and bless his name. (5) For Jehovah is good; His lovingkindness endureth forever, And his faithfulness unto all generations.   Worship reveals our love and admiration for God and He knows it: (1Ch.29:11) Thine, O Jehovah, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Jehovah, and thou art exalted as head above all.   Praise Him everywhere, with a new song that comes from your heart, and dancing and with all instruments and enemies will be conquered: (Psa.149:1) Praise ye Jehovah. Sing unto Jehovah a new song, And his praise in the assembly of the saints. (2) Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. (3) Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises unto him with timbrel and harp. (4) For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people: He will beautify the meek with salvation. (5) Let the saints exult in glory: Let them sing for joy upon their beds. (This will bind our enemies works against us.)  (7)  To execute vengeance upon the nations, And punishments upon the peoples;  (8)  To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron;  (9)  To execute upon them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints. Praise ye Jehovah. (Children can conquer enemies in worship.) Psa 8:2  Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength, Because of thine adversaries, That thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. (150:1) Praise ye Jehovah. Praise God in his sanctuary: Praise him in the firmament of his power. (2) Praise him for his mighty acts: Praise him according to his excellent greatness. (3) Praise him with trumpet sound: Praise him with psaltery and harp. (4) Praise him with timbrel and dance: Praise him with stringed instruments and pipe. (5) Praise him with loud cymbals: Praise him with high sounding cymbals. (6) Let everything that hath breath praise Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah. It is the will of the Lord to worship in songs and hymns: (Eph.5:17) Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. (18) And be not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be filled with the Spirit; 19 speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; (20) giving thanks always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father; We give thanks to God; this is a secret of power because we believe we have already received what we asked, right?   Praise (meaning “brag on”) Him to everyone: (1Ch.16:23) Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth; Show forth his salvation from day to day. (24) Declare his glory among the nations, His marvelous works among all the peoples. (25) For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He also is to be feared above all gods. (26) For all the gods of the peoples are idols: But Jehovah made the heavens. (27) Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and gladness are in his place. (28) Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength; (29) Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come before him: Worship Jehovah in holy array. (30) Tremble before him, all the earth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved. (31) Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; And let them say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth.   We are taught to worship, praise and pray with hands lifted up to the Lord: (1Ti.2:8) I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputing. (Psa.63:4) So will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name. (Lam.3:41) Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens. (Neh.8:6) and Ezra blessed Jehovah, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with the lifting up of their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped Jehovah with their faces to the ground.   Why lifting up hands? Offering our hands to the Lord for His works and to conquer His enemies: (Exo.17:9) And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to-morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand. (10) So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. (11) And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. (12) But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; And his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. (13) And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.   Worship and praise will conquer overwhelming enemies: (2Ch.20:17) Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of Jehovah with you, O Judah and Jerusalem; fear not, nor be dismayed: to-morrow go out against them: for Jehovah is with you. (18) And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before Jehovah, worshipping Jehovah. (19) And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites and of the children of the Korahites, stood up to praise Jehovah, the God of Israel, with an exceeding loud voice.   (20) And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem: believe in Jehovah your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. (21) And when he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed them that should sing unto Jehovah, and give praise in holy array, as they went out before the army, and say, Give thanks unto Jehovah; for his lovingkindness endureth forever. (22) And when they began to sing and to praise, Jehovah set liers-in-wait against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, that were come against Judah; and they were smitten. (The angels will smite the enemies in the land.)  Worship to bind the enemy and their kings: (Psa.149:6) Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand; (7) To execute vengeance upon the nations, And punishments upon the peoples; (The Lord is doing this.) (8) To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron; (9) To execute upon them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints. Praise ye Jehovah.   Because judgment and enemies are near, fear God and worship Him: (Rev.14:7) and he saith with a great voice, Fear God, and give him glory; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made the heaven and the earth and sea and fountains of waters. (Dan.3:16) Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee in this matter. (17) If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace; and he will deliver us out of thy hand, O king. (18) But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.   (2Ki.17:38) and the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods: (39) but Jehovah your God shall ye fear; and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies.   We can clap and shout our triumph over our enemies. Triumph is celebrating the victory before we see it: (Psa.47:1) Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples; Shout unto God with the voice of triumph. (Jos.6:20) So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets; and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.   Praise in Hebrew is “Hallal”, meaning brag on the Lord. Give credit or ascribe to the Lord: (Psa.29:1) Ascribe unto Jehovah, O ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength. (2) Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name; Worship Jehovah in holy array. (3) The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters: The God of glory thundereth, Even Jehovah upon many waters. (4) The voice of Jehovah is powerful; The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty. (5) The voice of Jehovah breaketh the cedars; Yea, Jehovah breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. When we speak in agreement with the Word of God, we are giving “voice” to the Word and the angels hearken to His voice. (Psa.103:20) Bless Jehovah, ye his angels, That are mighty in strength, that fulfil his word, Hearkening unto the voice of his word. Amen! 

Blessings Follow Sanctification (5)  (audio)  David Eells (6/23/24)    We've been discussing the blessings that follow sanctification and it's been very exciting to learn how the Bride is being manifested in the earth, as a spotless and blemishless Bride, for whom the Lord has been waiting all these years! We saw that the Bride will be manifesting His glory. (Isa.62:1) For Zion's sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem's sake I will not rest, until her righteousness go forth as brightness, and her salvation as a lamp that burneth. This is the Epiphaneia, the “shining forth from” His people of the glory of God, of the nature of Jesus Christ. During the days to come, we know that God's going to do just that; He's going to fulfill this prophecy. His city, His Heavenly New Jerusalem, is even now being manifested in the earth under our King David.  And yet, as this prophecy is being fulfilled, other things will be happening out there which are not such good news. God's people are going to have an opportunity to bear fruit and then time will run out. And not just the Bride, but the virgins, the queens, the concubines, all the different groups of God's people at the Marriage Feast, all these people have to bear fruit. However, we know there will be some people who stubbornly refuse to bear fruit. As a matter of fact, we sometimes see them around us because they love to persecute us and this next chapter in Isaiah is a parable about Jacob and Esau.  There was constant war between Jacob and Esau, and there has been constant war between their seed for the generations since then, even up to now. The Palestinians of today are basically the Edomites who are the seed of Esau, about which Isaiah 63 speaks. Both Jacob and Esau were sons of Abraham, and yet the Lord said in, (Rom.9:6) But it is not as though the word of God hath come to nought. For they are not all Israel, that are of Israel: (7) neither, because they are Abraham's seed, are they all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called. (8) That is, it is not the children of the flesh that are children of God; but the children of the promise are reckoned for a seed.   (9) For this is a word of promise, According to this season will I come, and Sarah shall have a son. (10) And not only so; but Rebecca also having conceived by one, even by our father Isaac— (11) for the children being not yet born, neither having done anything good or bad, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth, (12) it was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger. (13) Even as it is written, Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated. What do you suppose He meant by that? And does it have an application to the New Testament people of God? Of course it does. We read in (1Co.10:11) Now these things happened unto them by way of example; and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come.   This is a parable that can be applied to the Church, not that we are literally Jews; we are only spiritually Jews. God gave us the parable of the letter in order to fulfill in the spirit what was already done and we give thanks unto God for that. We know that (Act.14:22) … through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God. Tribulation is necessary to bring this Bride to maturity and one of the sources of this tribulation is those people who are called “sons of Abraham” yet they persecute their brethren. It's like Jacob and Esau. Esau was a constant persecution against Jacob and even up until this day, we still have the parable before us.   So let's read (Isa.63:1) Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? “Bozrah” means “sheepfold” and Edom is the seed of Esau. This is a revelation of Jesus' coming after perfecting His Bride and what He's going to do with these people who have persecuted His Bride. You know, even though God may use certain people against His Bride in order to bring the Bride to maturity, He still holds those people accountable and this chapter is where God is about to hold some people accountable. So Bozrah is the sheepfold. Jesus came to the sheepfold in His day and He called His sheep out by name. It says in (Joh.10:1) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. (2) But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.   (3) To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out. (4) When he hath put forth all his own, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. (5) And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. How many of His sheep did He call out? He called out all of them that were His and the sheepfold He was calling them out of was apostate Judaism. Now the parable is for our day because the Lord is going to do the exact same thing through the Man-child. He's going to be calling His people out of the apostate sheepfold of religion to follow Jesus.   We received a dream that I think is very telling about this parable, in identifying to you who the Edomites are in the Church. This dream was given to G.C. in the middle of 2008. (The dream is written in non-bold italics.) G.C. said, I had a dream about us. (He was talking about Unleavened Bread Ministries.) Details were lacking, but I recall us being in a field or a park the size of a football field that was in the midst of a city. Jesus said in, (Mat.13:38) … the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom; and the tares are the sons of the evil [one]. The world is full of competition, just like football, which is a competitive sport. Christians are supposed to be serving one another, not competing with one another, but the world is that way and so are their religions.   This city, I believe, represents the worldly Babylon that's in apostasy because all the world came from Babel. (Gen.11:6) And the Lord said, Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language; and this is what they begin to do: and now nothing will be withholden from them, which they purpose to do. (7) Come, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech. (8) So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off building the city. (9) Therefore was the name of it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.   And in (1Ch.1:19) And unto Eber were born two sons: the name of the one was Peleg; for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother's name was Joktan. God confounded their tongue, then He broke up the continent and spread that out and separated the people, so there is a world Babylon that will fall. He's calling us out of that; He's calling us into His Kingdom and out of the kingdom of this world.   G.C. goes on, There were quite a few of us in this area, but for whatever reason, I do not know, I remember walking through this grassy area and realizing that the people with us were probably part of UBM, but a lot of them I have never seen before. That's because when God brings UBM people together, many times they have not seen each other since ours is primarily a broadcast ministry. We are very happy to have visitors who come quite regularly to see us and they may have been a part of our ministry for a long time, but we never see them until they come to visit us.   Continuing with the dream: Then I found myself on a high mountain or a cliff overlooking the field and I saw you (David Eells) and the others in the field. He's looking down from a mountain upon the field, which is the world, and so this is a perspective from the Kingdom of God. You know, we're supposed to be seeing things from a Kingdom perspective and not from a worldly perspective; that's how we are actually able to walk as sons of God. Back to the dream: As I watched this, I saw many hostile solider-type men in red uniforms parachuting down into the field. My interpretation is that this represents the apostate enemy troops who walk in sin, which is represented as the color red in the Scriptures. As it says in (Isa.1:18) Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. And also the word “Edom” means “red.”   Our text in Isaiah 63 is speaking about Edom and “Edom” was the name given to Esau when he sold his birthright as a son of Abraham. Do you know that there are Christians who are selling their birthright as sons of Abraham? We'll look at that a little further on. It says in (Gen.25:30) And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red [pottage] (They added the word “pottage” there and put it in brackets, but in the original it just says “red.”); for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. So Esau got a nickname from begging for this “red.” His name became “Edom” and those people who followed him, who were his seed and who walked in his steps, are the Edomites.   We discovered in the Scriptures, (1Co.4:15) For though ye have ten thousand tutors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I begat you through the gospel. A person walks in the steps of their spiritual father. The Man-child will be a spiritual son of David, just like Jesus was a spiritual son of David. Going on in (Gen.35:31) And Jacob said, Sell me first thy birthright. Esau wanted this “red,” which we know is a type of sin, and Jacob said, “Sell me your birthright,” so basically Esau sold out to sin, didn't he? And that's why he was called “Red” and those who walked in his steps were called “Edomites.”   The mixture of Jacob and Esau's seed in the Promised Land was like two competing armies. (Gen.27:41) And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him. And Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand. Then will I slay my brother Jacob. It wasn't until Jacob separated himself from Esau that the Lord caused him to bear much fruit.   As a matter of fact, Jacob bore so much fruit that when he came back into the Promised Land, his brother Esau was shocked looking at all this fruit he had borne, both in his family and in his flocks. (Gen.32:13) And he lodged there that night, and took of that which he had with him a present for Esau his brother: (14) two hundred she-goats and twenty he-goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams, (15) thirty milch camels and their colts, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty she-asses and ten foals. (16) And he delivered them into the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said unto his servants, Pass over before me, and put a space betwixt drove and drove.   (17) And he commanded the foremost, saying, When Esau my brother meeteth thee, and asketh thee, saying, Whose art thou? and whither goest thou? and whose are these before thee? (18) then thou shalt say [They are] thy servant Jacob's; it is a present sent unto my lord Esau: and, behold, he also is behind us. (19) And he commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the droves, saying, On this manner shall ye speak unto Esau, when ye find him; (20) and ye shall say, Moreover, behold, thy servant Jacob is behind us. For he said, I will appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see his face; peradventure he will accept me. (21) So the present passed over before him: and he himself lodged that night in the company. ... In the next chapter we read (Gen.33:4) And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck, and kissed him: and they wept. (5) And he lifted up his eyes, and saw the women and the children; and said, Who are these with thee? And he said, The children whom God hath graciously given thy servant. (6) Then the handmaids came near, they and their children, and they bowed themselves. (7) And Leah also and her children came near, and bowed themselves: and after came Joseph near and Rachel, and they bowed themselves.   (8) And he said, What meanest thou by all this company which I met? And he said, To find favor in the sight of my lord. (9) And Esau said, I have enough, my brother; let that which thou hast be thine. (10) And Jacob said, Nay, I pray thee, if now I have found favor in thy sight, then receive my present at my hand; forasmuch as I have seen thy face, as one seeth the face of God, and thou wast pleased with me. (11) Take, I pray thee, my gift that is brought to thee; because God hath dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough. And he urged him, and he took it.   The spiritual seed of Esau are the Edomites, who have sold their birthright as Christians by walking after the flesh. But the Bible tells us in (Heb.12:14) Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord (As we have been studying that the word “sanctified” is the word hagiasmos and it means “separated unto God.” When Jacob was separated from Esau, in other words, when he was “sanctified,” he bore fruit.): (Heb.12:15) looking carefully lest [there be] any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness.... Now we are getting to the problem that Esau and his seed had because the sins of the parents are passed on to the children.  (Deu.5:9) Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them; for I, the Lord, thy God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me. We know Paul is talking about Christians, so we have a people among us who are like Esau. He's not talking about the Jews because they are a parable for us. Again in (1Co.10:11) Now these things happened unto them by way of example; and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. Here he is exhorting the Christians not to be like Esau: (Heb.12:15) Looking carefully lest there be any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and thereby the many be defiled.   These Esaus, these Edomites among us, spread their root of bitterness. Christians who have given in to critical spirits, who are angry and unforgiving, can have no peace with other people. They are constantly attacking their brethren because they don't obey the words of God, which will keep peace among the brethren, if they are obeyed. These are whom the Scriptures here are pointing out as Edomites. (Heb.12:16) Lest [there be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright. Folks, we know what “meat” means: “meat” means “flesh” and because Esau walked after the flesh, he sold his birthright. He was a son of Abraham, a son of God, but still he sold his birthright.   There are many people out there who are selling their birthright. And what is our birthright? Our birthright is to walk in the steps of our father Abraham, to walk in the steps of our Father, the Lord Jesus Christ, but people are selling their birthright by walking after the flesh. (Rom.8:12) So then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh: (13) for if ye live after the flesh, ye must die; but if by the Spirit ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live. Paul said that if you walk after the flesh, you must die. There is a people among us who are sons of Abraham, but they are going to die. They are going to die because they have sold their birthright and because they have no peace with their brothers, just as it is in the natural. The Edomites today have no peace with their brothers and there is no way to make peace with them; there is constant war going on there. Look again in (Heb.12:16) Lest [there be] any fornicator, or profane person,… Why is he saying a “profane person”? What does that mean? The word there for “profane” is bebelos and, according to Vine's Expository Dictionary, it means “permitted to be trodden, accessible.” In other words, it's like somebody who doesn't have the hedge up around them, so they are not protected from the enemy. We know that Esau was that way. Esau was tormented by the tormentors because of his unforgiveness toward his brother. Jesus said the same thing: (Mat.18:34) And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due. (35) So shall also my heavenly Father do unto you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts.   In other words, you owe a debt if you don't forgive everyone. Yes, Jesus paid our debt, but a person who gives in to the flesh has to pay that debt instead and it's usually taken out of their hide. The debt has to be paid by this profane person who is accessible to their enemies, who is permitted to be trodden down and overcome by their enemies. Vine's also says, “bebelos is that which lacks all relationship or affinity to God.” That's very interesting and I would say that the comparison in Hebrews 12 is between somebody who is sanctified, like Jacob in verse 14, and somebody who is not sanctified, like Esau in verse 16. Esau was not sanctified, not “separated from sin unto God.” “Edom” was his nickname and he was walking in “red.”   Continuing in (Heb.12:17) For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place for a change of mind [in his father,] though he sought it diligently with tears. The word “rejected” here is apodokimazo and it means “to reject as the result of disapproval” or “to repudiate.” This is serious, folks. This is eternal life that we are dealing with here. Our inheritance, our birthright, is the eternal life of Jesus Christ, His life in you. If you walk after the flesh, do you get that life? Do you get the sanctification, which implies that you are receiving that life? No, you don't. Esau didn't value this awesome gift of the birthright that was passed on to him. He didn't value it more than following after the flesh and that's true of many Christians.   If they don't repent, they will prove themselves to walk in the steps of their spiritual father, Esau, who was a son of Abraham but was not saved. He was a son of Abraham but he became lost and he was rejected. (Heb.12:17) For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place for a change of mind.... Some versions add “in his father,” but there is no foundation whatsoever for that in the original manuscripts. The translators put it there according to their own theology, but it doesn't belong there because the problem was that Esau needed to change his mind. “Repentance” is the word metanoia and it means “change of mind,” so I would leave out the italicized words. “Esau found no place for change of mind”; he could not help himself. He could not cease from sinning. He could not cease from hating his brother.   Does that happen today? Yes, it does. These “Edomites” cannot cease from sin. (2Pe.2:13) Suffering wrong as the hire of wrong-doing (In other words, he was walking after the flesh and he was reaping what he was sowing.); men that count it pleasure to revel in the day-time, spots and blemishes (We know that God is looking for a spotless and blemishless Bride, but here's somebody with spots and blemishes.), revelling in their deceivings while they feast with you (Many of these people are deceivers. They have one face in front of you, but another face behind your back. They want to appear as if they are holy, but they are not sanctified.); (2Pe.2:14) having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin (There's the “red.”); enticing unstedfast souls; having a heart exercised in covetousness; children of cursing; (15) forsaking the right way, they went astray, having followed the way of Balaam the [son] of Beor, who loved the hire of wrong-doing.   What is the hire of wrong-doing? In the case of Hebrews 12, the hire of wrong-doing is following after the flesh, pleasing your flesh, pleasing your self-life, but your self-life is the very one that must die in order for the life of Christ to be manifested. In G.C.'s revelation, these “Edomites” were parachuting down into the world because they are fallen from Heavenly places in Christ. (Eph.2:4) But God, being rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, (5) even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace have ye been saved), (6) and raised us up with him, and made us to sit with him in the heavenly [places,] in Christ Jesus. They have become earthbound, unlike an eagle. An eagle is symbolic of overcoming because it can overcome the world, it can look down on the world from its high place. And like the eagle, we are called to be overcomers (Revelation 2:11,17; 3:5,12,21; 21:7).   Not long after G.C. had this dream, Unleavened Bread Ministries was attacked by many Edomites. These false Christians are enemies of the cross and are members of the Beast army by nature. We're talking about somebody who is confessing to be a Christian, yet who walks after the mind and works of the flesh. The identification of someone who is a member of the body of the Beast has the name of the Beast in their forehead, which represents the mind of the flesh, or in their hand, which represents the works of the flesh. They have the “mark of the Beast” and God promised through Apostle Paul that these people would be rejected.   Paul said even of himself, (1Co.9:27) but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage (or “submission”): lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected. So we see these men parachuting down to make war upon the saints and they are losing their positions in Heavenly places; they are being cast down to the earth. Does that sound familiar? (Rev.6:13) And the stars of the heaven fell unto the earth, as a fig tree casteth her unripe figs when she is shaken of a great wind. The “stars of the heaven” are Abraham's seed (Gen.15:5) And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and number the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be. And this is the great falling away.   There are star glory, moon glory and sun glory Christians, according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:35-49). Star glory is the ones who have borne the least fruit and the ones who fall away are the ones who have lost their fruit, like a fig tree. What does the fig tree represent? The fig tree represents God's people and they fell to the earth when they were shaken by a great wind. And what does the wind represent? The wind represents great tribulation. These Edomites represent the backsliders, the ones who have fallen from their position in Heaven. They are constantly making war on God's people from within the Church, as did Judas Iscariot, who is a good example.   The most important aspect of this is that the Bride will escape this Beast army. Who is the Bride? The Bride is those who are leaving Babylon and going to Jerusalem. That's a type for us; what happened to the Jews is happening to God's people today. God's first-fruits are now on their way out of Babylon and back to Zion, and the Bride will escape this Beast army by going into the wilderness. Where is the wilderness? It's between Egypt and Zion. They had to go through the wilderness to reach Zion and Zion represents the Bride, as John said in Revelation 21. The Bride is that mature, pure, sanctified, holy people, and Jerusalem, the Bride, were the only ones to escape the Assyrian Beast.  Let's read that in (2Ki.19:30) And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward. (31) For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and out of mount Zion they that shall escape: the zeal of the Lord shall perform this. (32) Therefore thus saith the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come unto this city, nor shoot an arrow there, neither shall he come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it. (33) By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and he shall not come unto this city, saith the Lord. (34) For I will defend this city to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake.    (35) And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the Lord went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when men arose early in the morning, behold, these were all dead bodies. (36) So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh. The Beast armies came in and conquered all of Israel and all of Judah, but they could not take Jerusalem because it represented the Bride. The Bride, as we have already seen in the teachings that have been leading up to this point, is going to escape the Beast, including the Beast in the Church.   Antichrist is in the Church, just like it is in the world. (1Jn.2:18) Little children, it is the last hour: and as ye heard that antichrist cometh, even now have there arisen many antichrists; whereby we know that it is the last hour. (19) They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they all are not of us. There are carnal Christians who cannot stand Christians who walk in the Spirit, who are walking in sanctification. They will make war on them, they will criticize them, they will do anything they can to those who walk in the Spirit, just like the Edomites are doing physically to physical Israel. Even though physical Israel is doing some bad things too.  Years ago, a sister in our assembly had a dream in which she and others in this dream were fleeing from people in red uniforms, who represented Edomites. Those people in red uniforms represented Christians, who are the seed of Abraham, but who walk in sin. So the sister and the others were fleeing these people and they were going to the safety of a tower. She told us she knew that “If we could get inside that tower, we would be safe from these people.” Well, there's an army of these people whose job it is to come at us and do anything they can to tear our flesh down in a crucifixion. They don't really belong to the Kingdom of God by virtue of their very nature, which is to be critical and angry and fighting against their brethren. They belong to the Beast because they walk after the mind of the flesh and the works of the flesh.   It doesn't matter that you have a born-again Spirit; every Christian has a born-again Spirit, but not every Christian walks after that Spirit. If you don't walk after that Spirit, you are going to be what the Bible calls “twice dead, plucked up by the roots.” (Jud.12) These are they who are hidden rocks in your love feasts when they feast with you, shepherds (not numeric or in the original Greek) that without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn leaves without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots. You can't be twice dead unless you have been twice born; you have to be born-again to be twice dead!   These people have been born-again in their spirit, but they never walked after the Spirit for their soul to be sanctified through their “obedience to the truth,” as Peter said. (1Pe.1:22) Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently: (23) having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth. As we've been studying, sanctification is the process of your soul becoming like your spirit. If you walk after the flesh, you will die. You will be twice dead and plucked up by the roots, but if you walk after the Spirit, you are going to live. (Rom.8:14) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Paul didn't say, “As many as have the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” He said, “As many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.”   God's people in this sister's dream were fleeing from the people in the red uniforms; they were going into this tower and we know that this tower was Zion because that's what it says in Micah. (Mic.4:8) And thou, O tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come, yea, the former dominion shall come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem. Flee to Zion; enter the Bride who is holy and safe. You know, Zion was a city with walls all around it and it was on top of a hill, so it looked like a tower and it was a place of safety. The people who were fleeing the Assyrian Beast fled inside that tower and the Assyrian army could not get at them. And when they tried, God sent an angel and he killed 185,000 of the soldiers in one night. The Assyrians left Zion alone after that because it was too costly for them to invade it. God said, (2Ki.19:32) … He shall not come unto this city, nor shoot an arrow there, neither shall he come before it with shield, nor cast up a mound against it. He said, “I'm going to protect my Bride,” and He did!   (Pro.18:10) The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous runneth into it, and is safe (or, “set on high”). Did you know that when you come to Zion or Jerusalem, the Heavenly Jerusalem, you have come to the “name of the Lord”? (Jer.3:17) At that time they shall call Jerusalem the throne of the Lord; and all the nations shall be gathered unto it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem: neither shall they walk any more after the stubbornness of their evil heart. The word for “name” is the word Shem in the Old Testament. Shem, of course, is the name of the chosen people, the Shemites. They were the “people of the name” (Genesis 10:1). Shem is the one who had the name. Shem is the word for “name” in the Old Testament in the New Testament it is anoma, and they both mean “nature, character and authority.”   When we take on the name of the Lord, that means we take on His nature, character and authority like the Bride. This is how you know the difference between a Jacob and an Esau. In the natural, they each have a different nature, character and authority, just as they each do in their spirit. (Pro.18:10) The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous runneth into it, and is safe. So we go into the name of the Lord; we abide in Jesus Christ -- in His nature, character and authority, and that is sanctification. People who are constantly attacking their brethren because they have a root of bitterness and are trying to spread it to everyone else, do not have the nature of Jesus Christ. They do not have the love of Jesus Christ. They are trying to make themselves great at other people's expense and it is a sad, sad thing.   Getting back to G.C. and his revelation: I said to myself, “This doesn't look good for David and the others,” but for some reason, I wasn't worried about myself. That's because, in this particular case, he was an observer at this point. Continuing the dream: This is when I saw David Eells and the people fleeing out of the area, but these soldiers tried to detain whomever they could. In other words, they wanted to keep people from going into the wilderness and they still want to do that today. Edomites don't want you to walk by faith in God; instead, they want you to live in Egypt. They were the “mixed multitude” who were half Egyptian and half Israelite (Exodus 12:38; Numbers 11:4).   They didn't want to leave Egypt either, did they? (Exo.16:2) And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness: (3) and the children of Israel said unto them, Would that we had died by the hand of God in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the fleshpots, when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger. And they were nothing but a stumblingblock to God's people when they got into the wilderness.   There are many people today who call themselves “Christians” but they don't want to walk in the wilderness, which is where God's power is made manifest. Remember, God told Moses to tell Pharaoh that His people could not sacrifice to Him in Egypt. (Exo.8:26) And Moses said, It is not meet so to do; for we shall sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians to the Lord our God: lo, shall we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, and will they not stone us?   The only place they could sacrifice to Him was in the wilderness (Exodus 7:16). That's a place of weakness, that's a place where Egypt doesn't supply all your needs, that's a place where you don't put your faith in man and man's ability and efforts. You go out in that wilderness and you receive miracles of provision and protection. You get fed out of Heaven. You get water out of a rock. This is a place where God's power is made perfect in man's weakness. God wants to be our Savior; He doesn't want us to save ourselves.   So, in G.C.'s dream, the soldiers were trying to detain them, trying to keep them from going into the wilderness. Do you know what's going to happen? These Esau types are going to take the mark of the Beast so that they don't have to go into the wilderness. They can trust in Egypt, but if you don't take the mark of the Beast, you are going to have to go into the wilderness. This is God's way of forcing His people into the wilderness so that they can walk by faith because the righteous shall live from faith (Romans 1:17; Hebrews 10:38). The rest of them are going to live by faith in the world and you can see right there the difference between the Jacobs and the Esaus. They are both among us and, even though they are both the seed of Abraham, one of them is going to be rejected, reprobated, for continuing to attack his brother. The enemies of Christ, spiritual and physical, and the Beast armies, will seek to hinder God's people who want to leave Babylon for the wilderness.   Continuing with G.C.'s dream: Then I was running through the field (representing the world) as well and they tried to detain me, too. I thought for sure that David and the others were captured, but as I ran out of the field and to the right (sheep go to the right and goats go to the left), I found myself running to a safehouse which, in fact, was David's house. That's interesting. Many people have had dreams about my house being a white house and a safehouse. This was not speaking about a house in the physical but a “house” in the spiritual, a place where we abide. Our spiritual house in which we must abide is Jesus Christ, Who is the Word of God and the house of David. Notice G.C. said he went to “David's house” and the “house of David” is Zion! We need to abide in Zion, if we want to be in the Bride and escape the Beast.   G.C. goes on to say, “And I was the last one in. David and all the others had somehow managed to get in safe and sound, which was a surprise to me. I thought David had been captured. As I walked up to the house, I saw David's wife open the door for me and let me in. I know in the natural she is approximately his age but she appeared to me as a woman in her late 20s to mid-30s. This could be speaking of my physical wife since there is a restoration coming for the Bride that many don't know about. But also this is a spiritual revelation. My spiritual “wife” are those who receive the seed of the Word that I sow and bear the fruit of Christ. As Paul said, (1Co.4:15) For though ye have ten thousand tutors in Christ, yet have ye not many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I begat you through the gospel. He was sowing the seed in the Woman Church, the first Church that came out of the wilderness, which was Israel, and bringing forth fruit. He wasn't sowing his seed; he was sowing Christ's seed because we have to make disciples of Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19).  Continuing with the dream: She had very long hair (In 1 Corinthians 11:15, long hair was a sign of submission.) and she wore old-style glasses, and it almost looked like she was living in the 1970s. These old-style glasses represent how you see things. Do we see things the way the modern Church sees things, or do we see things the way they were once given unto the saints? (Jud.3) Beloved, while I was giving all diligence to write unto you of our common salvation, I was constrained to write unto you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints.   You have to see things the way the Bible tells you to see things, not the way the modern, dead Church tells you to see things. You have to see and live the faith as it was once delivered unto the saints; some people call that old-fashioned. Back to the dream, We were all in the house, safe and sound. End of dream. That was very interesting and it gives you a good perspective of who these Edomites represent.   So let's look at these Edomites a little bit more. (Isa.63:1) Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? Bozrah, as we saw, is the sheepfold. God is going to separate His people from the apostate sheepfold because history just keeps repeating, though each time it's on a larger and larger scale. Jesus said in John 16 He's coming again as a Man-child born to a woman and when you look in Revelation 12 you see that because Jesus is coming in His people. He left an individual body to come back in a corporate body, so He will be able to do worldwide what He was doing in that individual body.   Jesus said in (Mar.16:17) And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; (18) they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. His disciples did the same works He did. And in (Joh.14:12) Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto the Father.  And what's going to happen after He separates His people from the fold? What happened to the early sheepfold after the Lord took His people out? Everybody who didn't come out was cut off of the olive tree (Romans 11); they were rejected. You either came out or you were rejected, and the same thing is going to happen in our day. The Lord wants a people in His image, not in the image of these dead religions out there. (2Co.6:17) Wherefore Come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you. You have to come out from among them and be separate and abide in (Jud.3) … the faith which was once for all delivered unto the saints.   After God takes His people out of the sheepfold in the tribulation, those who are left are going to be separated from the Kingdom of God. That's what happened in those early days (Romans 11). The people who didn't come out and walk by faith were separated from the Kingdom. They were shaken loose from the fig tree; they were cut off from the olive tree for their unbelief. (Rom.2:28) For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh: (29) but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. We are now coming to the place where these people are going to be separated from the Kingdom, after God's people have been separated from them.   After the Bride is perfected, after they have been purified, after they have been sanctified, He is going to deal with those people who are still in the sheepfold and some will come out in tribulation. And what is He going to do? He's going to separate the rest from the Kingdom of God. Let's read that in (Mat.13:24) Another parable set he before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man that sowed good seed in his field: (25) but while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares also among the wheat, and went away. (26) But when the blade sprang up and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.   (27) And the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst thou not sow good seed in thy field? whence then hath it tares? (28) And he said unto them, An enemy hath done this. And the servants say unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? (29) But he saith, Nay; lest haply while ye gather up the tares, ye root up the wheat with them. (30) Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather up first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them; but gather the wheat into my barn. (36) Then he left the multitudes, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Explain unto us the parable of the tares of the field.   Tares look like wheat, until it comes to bearing fruit; they don't bear the fruit. You can go to Church and sit side-by-side with them, but if they don't bear the fruit of Jesus Christ 30-, 60- or 100-fold, Jesus said they are not going to be in His Kingdom (Matthew 13:3-23; Mark 4:1-20). (Mat.13:37) And he answered and said, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; (38) and the field is the world (There's our parable from G.C.'s dream: “the field is the world.”); and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom (Kingdom of God); and the tares are the sons of the evil one; (39) and the enemy that sowed them is the devil: and the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are angels. So the disciples asked, “How did these tares come up among Your wheat? Didn't You sow good seed in Your field?” And Jesus said, “Let them grow together until the harvest.”   So here we are coming to the harvest and in the midst of God's people are these Edomites. They are about to be rejected from the Kingdom of God because they have borne no fruit. Like Esau, they walked after the flesh, they sold their birthright. (Mat.13:40) As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire.... Jesus said, (Joh.15:2) Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he taketh it away.... Notice the words “in me;” they were sons of Abraham and had the birthright. And what does He say He does with them? He burns them in the fire. (Mat.13:40) As therefore the tares are gathered up and burned with fire; so shall it be in the end of the world. (41) The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things.... The word “things” was not in the original manuscripts; there's no Greek word for “things” here and it should be omitted.   (Mat.13:41) The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all that cause stumbling, and them that do iniquity. This is not talking about geography; this is not talking about going from here to Heaven. He's talking about gathering out of the Kingdom the people in red, those who walk in red. This is rejection. What did Jesus say? (Luk.17:20 NENT) And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God cometh, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: (21) neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is among you.   The Kingdom of God is here! Here is where people lose the Kingdom! They have fallen from Heaven like the parachuting soldiers; they have lost their seat in Heavenly places and they are now members of the earth. Like an ostrich, they are earthbound. They may be very big in the world, but they cannot get off the ground and there are a lot of Christians out there who are big in the world, but they cannot go to Heavenly places. So “gather out of His kingdom” is talking about being removed from the Kingdom of God.   Again in (Mat.13:41) The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all that cause stumbling, and them that do iniquity, (42) and shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. People often say “the furnace of fire” is the Tribulation. No, “the furnace of fire” here is the great and terrible Day of the Lord! It comes after the Tribulation and continues in Hell. You remember God spoke to Noah, (Gen.7:4) For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living thing that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the ground. After seven days was when he needed to be in the ark. After seven days was when the flood, which represents the Day of the Lord, came upon the earth.   The “flood” which is coming this time is a “flood” of fire. (2Pe.3:10) But the day of the Lord will come as a thief; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are therein shall be burned up. (11) Seeing that these things are thus all to be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy living and godliness, (12) looking for and earnestly desiring the coming of the day of God, by reason of which the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?    When the disciples asked Jesus about the signs of the end, He told them in (Mat.24:29) But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. In the book of Acts, Peter preached, (Act.2:20) The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the day of the Lord come, That great and notable [day].     So you have a Tribulation and then you have a Day of the Lord, which comes for one purpose. The day of the Lord comes to burn up those who persecuted His people in the Tribulation. Whether it be the Beast or whether it be the Harlot and, in this case, the Harlot is the Edomites, the apostate Christians. (Mat.13:43) Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father.... In other words, they are purified and perfected, but the ark has not lifted off yet. When Noah got in the ark, he was 40 days in that great and terrible Day of the Lord before the ark lifted off, and when it lifted-off, he was purified. Everybody who was in that ark was purified or they would not be lifting off; they would be staying right here on this earth to go through the great and terrible Day of the Lord.   (Let me explain something here. God is dealing with the Bride and then the Church. According to John the Man-child, Jesus, was raising up the Bride, those firstfruits disciples. Then He sent them to raise up the Church. There is a mini day of the Lord after the Bride's sanctification. And a larger day of the Lord after the Church's sanctification in the tribulation.   So, the Edomite types will go through this day of the Lord. Isaiah 63 is all about the Edomites paying for what they did to God's people in persecuting them, in criticizing them, in turning them over to the Beast to be destroyed, as the apostate Jews did to Jesus. They turned Him over to the Beast, the Roman army, to be crucified. All through history, Edomites have always sided with the Beast against God's people. Do you know who Herod was? He was an Edomite king over the people of God. Do you know who is ruling over the people of God today? Most are Edomites! Just like the Pharisees and the Sadducees, who would not follow Jesus, they have sold their birthright and they are walking after the flesh.     Going back to (Isa.63:2) Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winevat? (3) I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath (The “wrath” is the great and terrible Day of the Lord.); and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment. We also see Jesus, in the book of Revelation, coming with His garment that was sprinkled in blood: (Rev.19:13) And he is arrayed in a garment sprinkled with blood: and his name is called The Word of God.     However, there is something strange here and people like to point it out. Back in Isaiah, it says, (Isa.63:3) I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath.... But over in Revelation, He's not alone. He's leading an army! (Rev.19:11) And I saw the heaven opened; and behold, a white horse, and he that sat thereon called Faithful and True; and in righteous he doth judge and make war. (12) And his eyes are a flame of fire, and upon his head are many diadems; and he hath a name written which no one knoweth but he himself. (13) And he is arrayed in a garment sprinkled with blood (It's not only the Edomites He's coming back after. It is also the Beast, Harlot and the wicked of the world, as He goes on to say.): and his name is called The Word of God.     (Rev.19:14) And the armies which are in heaven followed him upon white horses clothed in fine linen, white and pure. (The ark goes up in the day of the Lord and it comes back down here at the end. If there are armies following Jesus, how is He alone? Notice, the armies don't fight; only Jesus fights and He needs no help.), (15) And out of his mouth proceedeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress (Notice: “alone”) of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty.   So how is it that He is alone? It's because at this time, these people are in the ark, they are abiding in Jesus Christ. (1Co.15:28) And when all things have been subjected unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subjected to him that did subject all things unto him, that God may be all in all. We are not talking about men. He said there was no man with Him because these are all sons of God! They are not sons of men anymore. They have lost their humanity; it's been crucified down here on the earth. They have put to death the life of the old man, in order to gain the life of Christ (Matthew 10:39; 16:25; Mark 8:35; Luke 9:24).     They have, (Col.3:10) … put on the new man, that is being renewed unto knowledge after the image of him that created him (This “new man” being put on is the Son of God. This is the manifestation of the sons of God.): (Col.3:11) where there cannot be Greek and Jew, circumcision and uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, bondman, freeman; but Christ is all, and in all. These people are Christ. (Gal.2:20) … It is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me.... These are not men. These are God's sons. These are manifested sons of God! Awesome! This is just an awesome revelation here!     But, as the sons of God are being manifested, it is going to be a terrible and dangerous time that's coming for the Church because there is going to be a great falling away, as we are warned: (2Th.2:10) … Because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. (11) And for this cause God sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: (12) that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. Let's continue our Revelation 19 text. Rev 19:16  And he hath on his garment and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. 17  And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in mid heaven, Come and be gathered together unto the great supper of God; 18  that ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses and of them that sit thereon, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, and small and great.   19  And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth (Remember the ten kings who rule are also members of the body of the beast.), and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat upon the horse, and against his army. 20  And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet (The corporate body of the false prophet is worldwide and work for the worldwide Harlot church who is in bed with the beast and has his mark. Even now some of these false prophets are saying you can take the mark of the beast because the mark of God trumps the mark of the beast. How much more they will say this when they have taken the mark and are reprobated entirely.) Back to 20. that wrought the signs in his sight, wherewith he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast and them that worshipped his image (The beast had 7 heads and 10 horns for it was a corporate body with its patriots.): they two were cast alive into the lake of fire that burneth with brimstone: 21  and the rest were killed with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, even the sword which came forth out of his mouth: and all the birds were filled with their flesh.    God bless you to endure in faith to the end.  

1Ch_29:13  Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name.

"We do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against... spiritual hosts of wickedness." Eph 6:12 NKJVBefore doing battle with Syria, Joab told his brother, "If [they] are too strong for me, then you shall help me; but if the people of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will help you" (1Ch 19:12 NKJV). If one was overwhelmed, the other could step in and help. Spiritual warfare is different, however. We're not wrestling with "flesh and blood, but against principalities…powers…rulers of the darkness. [and] spiritual hosts of wickedness." And wrestling is a one-on-one struggle that means getting up close and personal, going toe-to-toe with your opponent. When David faced Goliath, the giant was so sure of himself that he announced to all Israel, "If he kills me...we will be your slaves. But if I kill him, you will be our slaves!" (1Sa 17:9 NLT). Think about the long-term implications of this. If Goliath prevailed, God's people would spend their lives serving the enemy! The stakes were incredibly high for Israel-and they are for you too. Satan is out to defeat you, and if you wrestle according to the rules of the flesh, you will lose. Just like professional wrestlers have rules they must abide by, there are fail-safe spiritual rules designed to work for you. Paul says, "The weapons of our warfare are not physical…but they are mighty before God for the overthrow...of strongholds" (2Co 10:4AMPC). The only hope you have of defeating Satan lies in prayer, Christian fellowship,God's Word, the name of Jesus, and the blood of Jesus. These five things top the list of powerful weapons given you to defeat the Enemy.

God Gives Strength and Power  David Eells 4/24/24  (audio)  Psa 68:35 O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: The God of Israel, he giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.    1Ch 29:12 Both riches and honor come of thee, and thou rulest over all; and in thy hand is power and might; and in thy hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. Notice that God rules all and gives strength to all.      Compassion Brings Power  Sharlene Campana - 10/27/2006  During the UBBS, the Lord brought the two following testimonies back to my memory and gave me a remarkable understanding. First, I'll share the two and then how they are connected.  God's Love Goes Deeper  In late winter, early spring of this year the Lord did a very special thing. As I was watching the evening news each night, for several weeks they would do stories on several women who had lost a loved-one. The Lord was directing my attention to the pain all three of these women were in, from mild to severe suffering because of a loss of a family member. The first woman was sad and distressed but she would be fine. The second was suffering somewhat deeper pain but the third women was so sad, distraught and suffering in deep despair, with no hope of recovery, her spirit seemed almost to be beyond repair.  I'm going to just tell you about the last woman. I could hear the sadness in her voice as I watched her tell about her loss, I began to cry very hard and I had such compassion for her. All of a sudden the Lord began to take me down lower and lower to a place where no human can go, down to the depth of the pain this woman was at. I was completely overwhelmed with the pain. I wanted to die, I told the Lord I can't handle this, it's too painful, please it's too painful. Then I said, ‘God Almighty how do you do this everyday, how can you stand to see the suffering?' Then again I said, ‘Please, I want to die, this is too much.'  He then spoke to me, “This is not pain you're feeling this is my love. Love must go deeper than the pain and sadness, it needs to go down deeper to be able to minister love. Love must go under the suffering to lift it up.”  This was love, the love of God I was feeling which needed to go deeper than the despair of this woman to lift her up out of the pain; only the love of God can minister to this depth of suffering to a woman that was totally hopeless. As you can imagine I was in total awe and I could hardly grasp what I just experienced.      LaNell confirming Sharlene I had an experience very similar to yours in experiencing the Love of Christ for another. One day my husband and I were sitting in a restaurant. A lady and an older couple (her parents) came in. The lady was crippled and deformed from polio. She sat right behind me in a booth.  My compassion went out to her. The Lord began pouring out His love to her through me. It became stronger and stronger. I thought I would burst. There was no way I could contain it. He told me to tell her that He loved her. I couldn't do it. I thought she would think I was feeling sorry for her or pitying her and be offended. I wrestled with the Lord about it until they were through eating and about to leave.  At the last minute, I turned around and told her that God loved her very much; that He had been pouring out His love to her through me. And that His love was so strong that I thought it would destroy me. God REALLY loved her and wanted her to know! His love was so strong that I wouldn't live if I tried to contain it. It was for her.  She had tears running down her face. She said that she really needed to hear that. Someone had hurt her deeply. Her parents that were with her said they understood about the Lord giving her a message. They were Pentecostal. My life was changed that day!      Sharlene Testimony In The Presence of Angels  This happened while I was reading Hidden Manna For the End Times, by David Eells; I had made a copy of the book.  May 16, 2006  Today a very precious and lovely presence of angels surrounded me while I was sitting and reading chapter six: Caught Up to the Throne (Authority). The anointing was very strong and it was familiar. I've experience this when I was being delivered of demons, the angels were present moving in to assist in casting out the demons. I could give you a more detailed testimony about how and what they did, but I want to tell you what happened today.  This occurred when I started reading chapter six. When I got to the second page the anointing was so strong I had to stop reading. I closed my eyes and just sat still. Then I thought, well, maybe the Lord has sent the angels to deliver me of some demons, so I began to tell the demons to leave and did this for a short time, and after a while had passed I knew that this was not what the angels had been sent for. Then I sat still again, they were so close and I spoke to them. I said, ‘I know you are here and you are standing around me, and there are three of you, I feel your presence.' They just stood standing around me; then I began to feel waves of glory washing up and down my body for about an hour.   I continued to read and stopped sometimes just to enjoy the anointing. I was sure I needed to keep reading; then I got to Tom Nelson's prophecy on 5-4-2000 of the experience of the first-fruits walking in heavenly places in the spiritual temple of God on earth. "Some are called forth to be caught up in the heavenlies, but still be here on earth there where you are, and there where I am too, when I dwell within you, as well as among you. There is a third heaven that you will taste. There's a third temple, which you will see. You will see it in the sense that it becomes reality, but you will walk in it because you are a part of it".  After I read that the Lord spoke and said that “This is my glory upon you. I want you to get familiar with this anointing, I want you to taste it, feel it so when you are in this glory you will become comfortable. I want to show you what is needed to move in the supernatural and not to see it as something unusual. I will visit you many times starting from today to get you comfortable with my anointing.” I then understood... WOW, the end times are upon us!!! I'm thinking, did this really happen? It did. I want to share it with those in the faith to encourage all to press-in with your whole heart, don't hold anything back.  October 25, 2006  Getting back to last Wednesday night UBBS study. As I was listening to Brother Thomas the Lord placed both of these testimonies right in front of me at eye level, “God's Love Goes Deeper” and “In The Presences Of Angels” right in front of my face. It was like they were on two scrolls suspended in air before my face. I began to wonder, what are you asking me Lord, are you asking me which one I desired more, are you trying to tell me something, why am I looking at these two testimonies? It was silent for a short time as I was looking at these scroll like things before my face.   Then I thought I would choose love over the anointing; the love was much more valuable to me than the anointing or being in the presence of angels. Don't get me wrong here, they were both really special and I would never want to make that kind of a choice, but I was thinking if I had to make that choice I would choose love. At the very moment the Lord spoke the most profound awesome thing I have ever heard.  God said, “I will combine these two together, this powerful anointing and this depth of love to minister to my people, this is what is needed in the end times.” I knew what it was like being in both of these separately, but my mind cannot even understand how it would be possible for the human frame to withstand this kind of power. The Lord then said, this is the same power that created the universe. With this kind of power just the shadow of a person or being in the presence of this power would totally set the captives free. This is the power that will change the body of Jesus Christ into the Bride of Christ Jesus. Amen!   Eve had this dream portion where she experienced Christ in her physical body. I dreamed this morning that Jesus had totally manifested outwardly through me, in appearance or image, to others. They were seeing Jesus instead of me. I was still inside of Him but outwardly He was all that remained visible of my old appearance. (The Lord said, Eve's flesh was burned up and her spiritual man was left.) I was able to experience Jesus from being inside of Him. I was also able, in the Spirit, to view His/my appearance from the outside of Him as we passed by mirrors or other reflective objects.  2Co 3:18 But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit. (When we by faith accept that it is Christ who lives in us we can manifest His life and power and we can understand this verse.) Gal 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.   1Jn 2:28 And now, my little children, abide in him; that, if he shall be manifested (Greek: Phaneroo = To make visible; to cause to shine - in us), we may have boldness, and not be ashamed before him at his coming. 1Jn 3:2 Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested (same - In us), we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is. (And He in us can do the greater works for His power is in us.) 3 And every one that hath this hope set on him purifieth himself, even as he is pure. (There is no curse on this man or woman as Eve has demonstrated.)  Col 3:3-4 For ye died, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall be manifested (same - in us), then shall ye also with him be manifested in glory (The epiphany or shining of His glory and works out of us).   What was strange to me is that when I realized that I had become Jesus in outward appearance, I simultaneously realized that I had slowly been becoming Him in my mind, will, and emotions all along; all these years. (Eve here is also a type of the Bride of the Last Adam, Jesus. The New Jerusalem "born from above" through His Word out of heaven is also this type. It has the presence of God in the temple. Jerusalem as a type of the Kingdom was made up of the Bride, as John said, whose head was David, who was a type of the man-child. The Lord is rebuilding this type for the leadership of the Church who is typed by the rest of Israel.)   Jesus and I were so totally merged together, on the inside, that I didn't notice much difference between my mind and my persona and His. The only difference I experienced was His absolute confidence and His power; knowing precisely, the will and plans of our Father and feeling the power and authority to carry those plans out. (Oh how few understand this is “Christ in you, the hope of glory”. For example: Jesus spoke the Word in a perfect numeric pattern. Here is the wonder: The disciples He made, who John said were the Bride, wrote it down including their own acts in a perfect numeric pattern. He is fully in control of the men and women who come into His image and His presence is alive in them.) I also had a sense that we were untouchable to our enemies and they were forced to submit to our Father's plans for His sons and His people for this period of time in the dream. (As a type of this Jesus passed through the midst of his enemies untouched when cornered. He also said, “No man takes my life")       David Psa 29: 4 The voice of Jehovah is powerful… 11 Jehovah will give strength unto his people; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.  Jesus said in Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power (That's the Greek word, dunamis, which is where our word, “dynamite,” comes from.), when the Holy Spirit is come upon you: and ye shall be my witnesses… If you receive the Holy Spirit, this power is there. Jesus knows that we're no threat to satan's kingdom before we're filled with the Holy Spirit, that's why He told the disciples in Luk 24:49 … but tarry ye in the city, until ye be clothed with power from on high. Joh 20:21 Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace be unto you: as the Father hath sent me, even so send I you. He didn't send His people to preach the Gospel powerless.)  As we accept the mind of Christ, which is the Word of God, it transforms us. Rom 12:2 And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. If we do not repent (Greek: “change our mind”) when we read the Word, we do not accept the transformation to the life and work of Christ. Without a renewed mind, you can't think and see according to the Spirit, nor can you follow the Spirit in His power.   Col 2:18 Let no man rob you of your prize by a voluntary humility and worshipping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he hath seen, vainly puffed up (In other words, “made arrogant.”) by his fleshly mind (People dwell on the things that they see according to the flesh and it makes them proud.), 19 and not holding fast the Head … The head is supposed to rule the body, and Jesus is supposed to be our Head, but He can't rule us if we're still connected to an old fleshly, carnal mind, and not able to see the way He sees. We have to study the Word of God so that we can “see” the way Jesus commands us see.   For instance, 2Pe 1:3 Seeing (By faith) that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life (Greek - Zoe, God's life) and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue; (How do you know what to exercise faith in without knowledge? You have to know what has been given to you so that you know how to exercise faith. It's so that you can know how to believe God.) 4 whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises; that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in that world by lust.   When we begin this walk we can't see this with the natural eyes, because it's seeing something that is not manifested yet, but this is what God tells you to see by faith so He can do it. God's divine nature causes us to escape the corrupt old nature of the old man. And you are a righteous person, so God will do it for you. This is what God wants us to see, not to see our lack, not to see our want, not to see our incapability, but to see that we can do all things through Christ, Who strengthens us (Php 4:13). He's given us the power that we need. That's what He commands us to see.   Here's another example that shows God wants us to see the way He sees: 1Pe 1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently: 23 having been begotten again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the word of God, which liveth and abideth. This is talking about walking by faith, and that your faith and hope might be in God. “Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth.” He wants us to see that it's already been done, that it's already accomplished, that our soul's already perfected, and that we've obeyed all the truth that's in the Word. He wants us to see the end from the beginning, which is how God sees. And if we confess and see what the Word of God says, then we will always see the end from the beginning and He will see to it that we have it.   There's also, Col 3:9 … Seeing that ye have put off the old man with his doings (That's what He wants you to see. It's not something that you have to accomplish in your own strength, but something that was done at the Cross for you.), 10 and have put on the new man, that is being renewed unto knowledge after the image of him that created him. This is what we're supposed to see. Wherever we're wrestling in the flesh, whatever our weakness, the Lord wants us to see that that's already been put off. He wants us to see it accomplished before He manifests it. He wants us to see that we've already put on the new man because of what Jesus did.   Rom 6:11 Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus. He wants us to see this as a completed result. One thing is for sure, if you don't see it and confess it as an accomplished work, then the Holy Spirit won't rise up and give you strength and power to bring it to pass. Then you're not walking by faith and you will fall away, because if we don't receive God's gift of grace by faith, we'll find ourselves being weaker and weaker and weaker, and we will fall away.      Excerpt from Faith For All Things  The Forty-Day Trial By M.W.  …Yesterday as I sat praying, I realized that I was trying to use my flesh to fight my flesh. He made me understand that I was going about this all the wrong way. Because it was the wrong way, He was not going to allow it to be successful. God made me realize that I was hearing the Word, but not doing the Word. He caused me to realize that the Word will profit me nothing, if I do not exercise faith applied in my actions. At that moment I repented of my works to make myself righteous to Him.   I realized, for what could have been the hundredth time, that Jesus, and not I, is the One who overcomes the world. It is my faith, hope and trust in Him that will make me pleasing to Him. As I was praying, I literally felt God's strength wash over me. For a brief moment - a fleeting second - I felt how powerful Jesus is inside of me and how insignificant and afraid all my so-called “giants in the land” really are in comparison to Him. I also felt how wrong it is to try to be pleasing to God in any other way than to trust in His might, the power of His words.   After this, I was offering praise and thanks to Him. I knew He would work in me to cause me to be pleasing to Him. No matter what happens, I know that He is with me in every trial and that everything comes from Him. I asked Him what I needed to do and He pointed my finger directly to this verse on the word “put”: Rom 13:14 But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof. Since that was what I needed to hear, I said, Amen, Lord and started to run the race again with renewed vigor and faith. Praise the Lord!...    David Eph 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.  Now when you try to go against the enemy while you're under condemnation of the devil, you're going with only the power of self. This is always doomed to failure. The only way you can conquer the enemy is to walk confidently in the Lord in the faith that you have already overcome. The Lord wants us to have this confidence. No matter how many times we've failed, He wants us to have this confidence and continue to go against our enemies.   The Lord is not going to be with us if we try to go against our enemies with any condemnation or fear; He will not be in our midst. So we first need to confess our sins and failures to the Lord, A clear conscience gives you the boldness to come before God and receive whatever we need from Him by faith. 1Jn 3:21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God; 22 and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. So now you can exercise faith against your enemies. The power of God will come to people who believe and accept the Gospel.   Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is revealed a righteousness of God from faith unto faith: as it is written, But the righteous shall live by faith. Accept the Gospel. Accept the Good News that it was already done at the Cross. Cease from your works and enter into the rest of faith in the promises.  Luk 10:17 And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name. 18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I have given you authority (This is our right to use God's power.) to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. (Of course, that is only if you believe that nothing will in any wise hurt you.) 20 Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; (Jesus delegated authority over the power of enemy spirits to His disciples.) but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.   It seems that the most important thing that the Lord wanted them to know here was not that they had power over the demons, but that they were citizens of the Kingdom of Heaven and that they belonged to God. That's where our power comes from; it's because we are the children of God, so we shouldn't think it is strange that God has given us that authority. Can you imagine that you have authority over all the power of the enemy and that nothing can hurt you? We can claim this verse against anything that the power of the enemy has put upon us.  Do you believe that? It won't work unless you do. People have said to me, “Yeah, that's fine for you to do that, David, because you've been walking with the Lord for many years, and you have a lot of faith.” That's wrong thinking. That's not what Scripture says. Luk 10:21 In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou didst hide these things from the wise and understanding, and didst reveal them unto babes: yea, Father; for so it was well-pleasing in thy sight. God revealed these things unto “babes.” It really doesn't make any difference how long you have been in the Lord, how old you are in the Lord. In fact, we've seen some of the greatest miracles in our ministry from people who are young in the Lord.   Jesus taught that maturity is to become as a child, simply accepting the Word of our Father. Young faith is powerful and see this in Psa 8:2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength, Because of thine adversaries, That thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. Jesus told His grown disciples, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven (Mat 18:3-4).      Excerpt from Faith For All Things  God Granted Salvation with Just Moments to Spare!  We had a sister, B. A., whom we all love, and she had been praying for her husband, A. A., for years that he would get saved. He was a good husband but he just wasn't saved, and they lived several hundred miles away from us. So on this day, he was feeling really bad and he believed he was dying, which turned out to be the truth. B. A. was a very prophetic person and she felt that the Lord wanted her husband to speak with me, and when she told him that, he agreed.   So she called me and had to hold the phone up to his ear because he was too weak to hold it for himself. Now as we were talking over the phone, it became obvious that he had a bunch of demons, too. I had commenced to preach the Gospel to him but found a little bit of resistance there, so I started commanding the demons to come out of him. And every time I'd command a demon to leave, A. A. would get thrown across the room and B. A. would have to run over to where he was and put the phone back up to his ear. She said, “Those things were throwing him all around the room like a rag doll.”  After we cast out those demons, I began to talk to him about salvation again, how great salvation is and about how the Lord paid the price for us to be saved and so on and so forth, and A. A. was really listening. I was asking him questions such as, “Do you believe this?” And he was saying, “Yes, I believe it.” So when we got through, I just knew the guy was just royally saved and delivered, and his wife did, too, but then he told her, “Well, kiss me goodbye, darling, I'm going.” B. A. wouldn't receive that and she said, “You're not going nowhere!” but he said again, “Well, I am. Oh, yes, I am.” And right then, he went. With moments to spare, God saved him, and then he was gone.   Isn't God awesome? She prayed and she was believing God that He was going to save him, and He did, even though it was at the last minute. We just need to keep on believing for our lost loved ones because God can do it. He is an almighty Savior. He is our Deliverer from anything and everything, but we've got to have the mind of a child. We've got to have faith as a child. We've got to trust in the Father. When we do that, nothing can stop God.   Rom 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth;  Eph 1:17-23 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; 18 having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, (What is it that God called you for? What has He prepared you for? What has He prepared you to do?) what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, (He made us able to partake of the inheritance that we have in Christ.) 19 and what the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to that working of the strength of his might (We all need a revelation of the power that God is willing to manifest to all people who believe.)   20 which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, (When Christ was raised from the dead, we were too!) and made him to sit at his right hand in the heavenly places, 21 far above all rule, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come: (He was given dominion over all principalities, powers and all rulers in all the earth.) 22 and he put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things to the church, 23 which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all. All these principalities are under the feet of the body and Christ is the head of the body. That lets you know that even the very lowest, the very least of us, has authority over the devil's kingdom. Praise God!  Jesus also said, in Mat 28:18 And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, All authority hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth. He passed that on to His disciples and sent them. 19 Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: (And we know that “name” means, nature, character and authority, that we are baptized into.) 20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.  Notice: The Holy Spirit empowers those who have received Him to come into all that Christ is. Paul prays in Eph 3:16-19 that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that ye may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man; 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; to the end that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be strong to apprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth (Meaning, we are to apprehend all that Christ is.), 19 and to know the love of Christ which passeth knowledge, that ye may be filled unto all the fulness of God. Another confirmation of this.  Col 1:9-13 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray and make request for you, that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 to walk worthily of the Lord unto all pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all power, according to the might of his glory, unto all patience and longsuffering with joy; 12 giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light; 13 who delivered us out of the power of darkness, (The devil has no more authority or power over us. It's we who have been given authority and power over him and his kingdom.) and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love;   Psa 103:19-22 Jehovah hath established his throne in the heavens; And his kingdom ruleth over all. 20 Bless Jehovah, ye his angels, That are mighty in strength, that fulfil his word, Hearkening unto the voice of his word. When the angels hear the Word through us, they have authority from Jesus to fulfill it. 21 Bless Jehovah, all ye his hosts, Ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure. 22 Bless Jehovah, all ye his works, In all places of his dominion: Bless Jehovah, O my soul.   Rev 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels going forth to war with the dragon; and the dragon warred and his angels; 8 and they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.   10 And I heard a great voice in heaven, saying, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accuseth them before our God day and night. (Satan is cast down from before God because the true Church has finally stood up and the angels have gone to work for them.) 11 And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony; and they loved not their life even unto death.  Zec 10:12 And I will strengthen them in Jehovah; and they shall walk up and down in his name, saith Jehovah.  Isa 40:29 He giveth power to the faint; and to him that hath no might he increaseth strength. 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 31 but they that wait for Jehovah shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.  

We take a break from Galatians and talk about revival.WHAT IS REVIVAL?Revival is the sovereign activity of God whereby he renews his people individually and corporately in vigor, affecting both sincerity of belief and quality of behavior.  WHAT IS THE NATURE OF REVIVAL?Scripture indicates that a number of characteristics precede revival, including repentance, humility and obedience.  Characteristics which precede revival God's people long for renewal of their lives Ps 80:18 See also Ps 74:22; 80:1-17,19; 85:6 God's people must repent 2Ch 7:14 See also 1Ki 8:46-50 pp 2Ch 6:26-27; Isa 64:1-7; Hos 5:15; Ac 3:19 God's people experience a new awareness of sin 2Ki 22:11 See also Ps 32:3-5 God's people need to be humble Isa 57:15 See also Ps 149:4; Isa 66:2; Mic 6:6-8 God's people are revived through God's initiative Isa 59:16 See also Jer 24:7; 33:6-9; Tit 3:5  Characteristic results of revival People experience inward change Heb 8:10-12 See also Jer 31:33-34; Eze 11:19; Ac 2:42-47 People live obedient lives Eze 11:20 See also Eph 4:1-3; 1Th 1:7-8 People are zealous for God's work Ezr 5:1-2 See also Hag 1:12-15 People are generous in giving Ex 36:5 See also 1Ch 29:6-9; 2Ch 31:3-8; Ac 11:28-30 People delight in worshipping God Ezr 3:11 See also Isa 12:1-6 People are joyful Ac 13:49-52 See also Isa 35:1-10; Ac 8:5-8 God receives praise Ps 40:3 See also 2Sa 22:50 pp Ps 18:49; Ps 51:15; 59:16; 61:8  The Revival of Israel Under Hezekiah 2Ki 18:4-6; 2Ch 29:3-5; 30:1; 31:4,9-10,20-21 Under Josiah 2Ki 23:1-4 pp 2Ch 34:29-33; 2Ch 35:1-3  Revival in the New TestamentCrowds turn to the Lord Mk 1:5; Jn 3:26; 4:39; Ac 2:41,47; 4:4; 11:21 The Holy Spirit is active in the revival of believers Ac 4:31 See also Ac 13:9; 2Co 4:16; Eph 5:18 The response of believers in revival Ro 12:1-2 See also Eph 4:23-24; Php 3:13-14; Col 3:9-14 

Apostate Church Witchcraft (2)  (audio)  David Eells - 12/6/23    The Fall of Babylonian Religion  David Eells    Our Father has raised up a Beast kingdom as a demolition crew to tear down or burn down all the wood, hay and stubble built on the foundation of Christ. You can be sure that everything built on the shifting sands of this world will go, for everything that can be shaken will be.     In a vision, I was standing on a mountain and looking down the mountainside. I saw a construction crew coming up the mountainside putting up the big metal power poles for high voltage power lines. Then I looked down beside me on the ground and noticed a very old, emaciated cow lying there.   It looked as though it was about to die. Next to it was a very large baby boy that I knew had been born from that cow. Next, I saw a front-end loader come and scoop up the cow and carry it away. I picked up the baby and walked over and got on an escalator. As we were going up, I noticed a woman next to me with a normal-sized baby. Looking at my baby, she said, "That looks like a real baby boy". Watching the front-end loader carry away the cow, I said, "Yeah, I wonder how that's possible".     Then the scene changed, and I was walking into a ministers' conference. All the famous religious leaders of the U.S. were there. A famous minister who everyone knows and who I felt represented a generation of ministers, walked over and handed me some papers. Then the Lord said to me, "This is his propaganda about what he has accomplished". (If we have accomplished anything, it is by God's power, will, and grace for "a man can receive nothing except it come from heaven".)   God gave me the interpretation in my spirit. The power lines are the power of God coming to faithful Christians in the Kingdom represented by the mountain. The power will not come until the old cow, the Babylonish religious systems of men, are moved out of the way just as new wine cannot be put in old wineskins.     I was told that the old cow was the golden calf, now come to full age and passing away. In Ex.32:4 speaking of the golden calf, they said in Hebrew, "This is thy God". God here in the literal is Elohim just as it is in verse 11, "And Moses besought the Lord his God". Aaron proclaimed a feast to the Lord in verse 5. “Lord” here in the literal is YHWH, the name of our God. In other words, they were calling the golden calf Elohim and YHWH.   They were giving God's name to a false god. If you have been sold on a Jesus that looks different from the Jesus of the Bible, guess what, you are worshiping the golden calf, the old cow. The old cow is "another Jesus" as Paul called it in 2 Cor.11:4. He was the Egyptian Baal; the false virgin birthed son of God from Babel. You will take on the image of the Jesus you follow according to 2 Cor.3:18; hence, the old cow represents those who have taken on the image of a false Jesus. As this old cow is being moved out of the Kingdom the greater works will be manifest through the true disciples of Christ.    The greatest beast army the world has ever known is about to come against what is thought to be the Kingdom of God. They are the construction crew that will move the Babylonish cow out of the way. A remnant baby will come out of this cow and come to maturity, which is Zion as in Jer.50:3-12. The escalator represents the rest, the ceasing from our own works, as in Heb.4:10,11, through faith in the promises according to Heb.4:1-3. You do not walk upon an escalator; you just rest. God's land of rest is standing on the promises as God told Joshua, Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, to you have I given it (Joshua 1:3).     Jesus taught us that everything we pray for we are to believe we have received it and we shall have it in Mk.11:24. If you believe that you havereceived, you will cease from your struggles and anxiety to bring it to pass according to 1 John 5:14,15. Heb 4:3 For we who have believed do enter into that rest.  This is ceasing from our own works, because the works are already accomplished by God.   For instance, if we ask God to deliver us from some sin or sickness as in 1 Peter 2:24, or some other curse as in Gal.3:13, we must believe we have received since these promises are all past tense. Notice "bare our sins", "were healed", "redeemed us from the curse" are all past tense. Ephesians 2:8 in the original Greek says, "For by grace have ye been saved through faith". If you have been saved, then you are saved. The word saved here is the Greek word sozo and is translated "made thee whole" as in Lk.8:48 and some other places.     Obviously, being healed is part of being saved spirit, soul, and body. It is also saved in circumstances in Mt.8:25, and in deliverance in Lk.8:36. Saved covers deliverance from sin and its curses; and you have been saved at the cross. Jesus said, "It is finished", and "I have overcome the world". By this rest, the baby will come nearer and nearer to God represented by the escalator. And this will bring protection in the days to come through promises like Psa.91 and Psa.125.   The cow does not even believe in the protection and blessing of the secret place of the Most High (Psa.91). The cow eats grass, which Peter said was flesh in 1 Pet.1:24, and represents a fleshly understanding of the word. The cow only feeds milk, which we are told is being "without experience of the word of righteousness" in Heb.5:13,14, and represents being without spiritual senses.   God showed me concerning the ministers' conference that they were the bulls of Bashan who had been sowing their seed in the cow. Psalms 22:12,13 is a prophecy of the religious leadership represented by bulls in Jesus' day in verses 1,16,18, who opposed his leadership. The disciples were the new church leadership. The true disciples are going to be given a new leadership like those who followed Jesus out of Babylonish Judaism shown in Isa.1:26.    God gave the Old Covenant but at the time of Jesus they had corrupted it into a respect for men and traditions instead of the Word. Christianity has repeated this history. Jesus came to make disciples (Greek: methetes -meaning learners and followers) of the Word and lead them out of apostasy. True disciples will hear no other voice but his according to John 10:3-5; 8:31,32). You might say, "I would like to bring healing to this old corrupt religious cow".   Have you read Jeremiah 51:9? It says, "We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go everyone into his own country; for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies". Forsake her, brothers and sisters, and dwell in the promised land. Live on his promises. Receive a kingdom that cannot be shaken as in Heb.12:28. Come out from among them and be ye separate says 2 Cor.6:14-18 / Rev.18:4 / Jer.51:6,45 / Jer.50:8).    Diaper Changes  Anonymous 2/9/23 (David's notes in red)    I had a dream that my husband and I and about 20 to 40 other people were sent on a journey, walking through towns and various places but we were not to stay in one spot. (Staying in one spot, we shall see, is staying in the church denominations with no growth. We are strangers and pilgrims in this world, only passing through. Our home is heaven. 1Ch 29:15 For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathers were: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no abiding. 1Pe 2:11 Beloved, I beseech you as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;)    There are those who grow up for they are always seeking for truth so they keep moving.  Many from an old line denomination to a more spirit filled experience in another setting. And then realizing there is more and keep looking.   We were all adults and each of us were wearing their own diaper, (wearing a diaper represents not being able to “cleanse self” yet.) except a few people who were not wearing them. They would change everyone else's diapers. (Those who are mature help the younger believers by teaching them how to cleanse themselves with the promises in the Word. Eph 5:26 that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, Heb 10:22 let us draw near with a true heart in fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience: and having our body washed with pure water,)    My husband's and my diaper were both pink and shimmery, (pink means love, and shimmery means “glistening” in the reflection of the sun/Son)  But everyone else's were different darker colors. (Clothing represents our works so, the others were still in unclean works of the flesh.)    As we journeyed, we experienced so many different trials and persecution and I felt it was all a test for us to see how we would react and handle each situation. People randomly would mock us or drive us out of the places where we were, and I kept hearing that this is a trial and to stay calm and not worry.   (This is the life of believers who follow Jesus and experience the suffering of persecution. 2Ti 3:12 Yea, and all that would live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. 1Pe 5:7 casting all your anxiety upon him, because he careth for you. Php 4:6 In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.)    After about two days of wearing these diapers, my husband and I grew out of ours, so we didn't have to wear them anymore. (As we continue to obey Jesus in our trials, we learn what He wants and how to cleanse ourselves of our past and religious ways and quickly grow up. 2Th 1:3 …for that your faith growth exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all toward one another aboundeth; 1Pe 1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in your obedience to the truth unto unfeigned love of the brethren, love one another from the heart fervently: Joh 15:3 Already ye are clean because of the word which I have spoken unto you. Joh 17:17 Sanctify them in the truth: thy word is truth.)    But all the other people still wore theirs and since we were no longer wearing a diaper, we had to help all the others change theirs because they were unable to do it themselves. We were happy to help the others and we understood because we had to wear them before. (As we overcome the flesh and learn and grow, we can teach others how to use the promises of God to cleanse themselves.   Joh 13:14 If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet. 1Co 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye were washed, but ye were sanctified, but ye were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in the Spirit of our God. 2Co 7:1 Having therefore these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.)     (We also learn compassion and show mercy to others, not judging the younger ones, because we remember we were babies in the Lord too. We are then able to comfort and minister to others. (2Co 1: 3-4 …the Father of mercies and God of all comfort; 4 who comforteth us in all our affliction, that we may be able to comfort them that are in any affliction, through the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.)    Much time had passed, and we had gone through many different towns. (The towns represent other congregations of people where we share the Gospel.) and the only food that these adults in diapers wanted to eat was fast food. Fast food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. (Fast food represents quick food, like a short sermon. Or processed food with little nutrition. Possibly prepared using the letter of the Word without spiritual revelations. All this means feeding the flesh. Preachers in diapers cannot help.   This is not enough to feed the spirit man who needs the Word to grow and mature. Pro 4:22 For they [Word of God] are life unto those that find them, And health to all their flesh. 3Jn 1:2 Beloved, I pray that in all things thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.)    They refused to eat homemade sandwiches or food that we would make at the motel. They didn't want to eat anything healthy or fresh but only fast food, and they would go out of their way to get it. They insisted that we always stay in an area that had a fast-food restaurant and if it was not convenient or available in our travels they would freak out and refuse anything else. (This represents desires to only satisfy the flesh and not the spirit.)    These adults in the diapers were always complaining and very demandingwith their needs although they could do everything for themselves, but they wanted us to do it for them. (Some people never grow up always expecting others to do the work for them. Such is the apostate church system where they expect the pastor to feed them a few scriptures on Sundays. They never grow up past the milk to learn more, overcome in the trials, and grow up past their denomination, like the exhortations for the churches in Rev 2 and 3.)     (2Ti 3:7 ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Heb 5:11-14 …seeing ye are become dull of hearing. (from the fast-food diet) 12 For when by reason of the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need again that someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food. 13 For every one that partaketh of milk is without experience of the word of righteousness; for he is a babe. 14 But solid food is for fullgrown men, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil.)    All the other adults who outgrew wearing diapers got annoyed with the people still in diapers and didn't want to change them anymore, so they all left, and my husband and I were left alone to change their diapers and look after them. (We are to come out from among them when we've outgrown the denominations and realize we can't help those who don't want to change, meaning repent. 2Co 6:17-18 Wherefore Come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you, 18 And will be to you a Father, And ye shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.)    We felt bad for them and wanted to help them come out of their diapers and for them to be able to take care of themselves. (We want them to grow up and come out of the apostate churches, like the first disciples did. So they can mature into the image of Christ.) We kept trying to encourage them all to stay calm and be at peace through all their trials and to have joy no matter what happens, everything is better. But they ignored all advice and kept complaining in all their trials. Pro 13:18 Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth correction;… Pro 22:15 Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;… 1Co 10:10 Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.    My husband and I were constantly on call with the diaper changing and were always woken up multiple times each night as we were the only ones left on call to help these people.   They also walked so slow and gave into distractions (Again, the fast-food diet makes one weak in their walk and slow to understand and they don't grow up to overcome fleshy distractions.) whereas we just wanted to continue the journey and to keep focused and not stop for meaningless things. Many times we felt to just continue the journey alone as it would go much quicker and be a lot more enjoyable alone, not having to deal with all these people's problems.   (Yes, it is better to leave than to continue with those who refuse to listen. We are commanded to leave them and follow Jesus. Judgement is coming to the apostate churches to motivate them with the fear of the Lord. Mar 9:19 And he answereth them and saith, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you?... Psa 45:10-11 Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; Forget also thine own people, and thy father's house: 11 So will the king desire thy beauty; For he is thy lord; and reverence thou him.)    The people kept wanting to stop in certain towns for long periods of time to just relax, which we did not want to do but because we were out voted and the people complained so much, we had no choice. (We are running a race against time to bear the fruit of Christ. Many want to stop and settle down in a church denomination and many eventually die there. Pro 16:25 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, But the end thereof are the ways of death.)    The people always wanted to stop in playgrounds and play around which we felt was a waste of time but because they all wanted it; we had to stand and watch them all play on the swings and the slide. (Many are deceived by their doctrines and traditions of religion and just want to play church, believing they are saved and have no motivation to go any further in Christ. These children are like the Israelites who tested God in the wilderness. He was not pleased with them, and they perished in the wilderness. 1Co 10:5-7 Howbeit with most of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness. 6 Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted. 7 Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.)    A few of them complained that we never go on the playground with them, so we went up this huge, high tower, which had a slide. (The high tower is the Lord, Who is our place of safety in heavenly places.) While up there we decided to encourage all of them to grow out of their diapers and share with them how amazing it is to not have to wear a diaper anymore and life is much better without it. We didn't force it on them but lovingly encouraged and testified of our experience. Every single one of them spoke about how they are comfortable in the diaper and happy with it and they don't want to change. (This is how many of the church goers are in denominations, they don't want to change. They are comfortable with their traditions and easy flesh pleasing doctrines, and they never grow up in Christ.)    This really confused us as we know it's not fun wearing a diaper and it honestly was a giant burden on us having to change everyone's diaper all the time even though they were adults and should easily learn to look after themselves.     My husband and I slid down the slide disappointed that they were all comfortable staying in diapers. There were not enough people to change all these diapers and this job was a giant burden on us, especially because they didn't want to change. (I.e. they don't want to be free of the waste of the old life.  They don't want to leave it behind.)   That night my husband and I were talking about maybe we should just run away from them and continue the journey on our own but then someone called out in need of a diaper change. I woke up. (You can share the Word with them and your testimonies to encourage them to leave the waste behind, but unless they have ears to hear and it's their time, you are wasting your time there with them. We are longsuffering with the immature, but eventually the righteous need to obey Jesus and follow Him out, and not looking back.)    Daughter Of The Harlot   Winnie Osegueda 3/13/2022 (David's notes in red)     I was with my friend on a train in the NYC subway. (This is a friend of mine whom the Lord has been warning to come out of the current denomination-false church she is in.) There was a very dark skinned, overweight woman riding the subway as well. (She represents the church. She is dark-skinned and overweight because the Lord is using her as a parable for walking in darkness and full of flesh/self/demons.) I didn't know her, but my friend Venessa knew her. She was apparently Steve Harvey's daughter. (Steve Harvey is a celebrity and self-proclaimed Christian, but is very carnal and worldly. He could represent a false Jesus and Christianity that is very prevalent but looks nothing like the true Father in The Word. He also says there are many ways to God.)    I could see in a vision the woman's mom who had her with Steve Harvey, and she was also a very dark-skinned lady with a black and white afro. It was divided. Black on one side, white on the other. (Her mother represents the mother harlot church Babylon, who we are supposed to depart from as the Word says. The daughter who was riding on the train with us is the daughter of the harlot. The daughters of the harlot are the false denominations that come from the mother church. And her black and white afro could represent a mixture of the holy and profane.)     After she finished talking to her, my friend told me that the woman wanted her to go to her house, but my friend didn't seem to really like this lady too much, even though she was going to her house anyway. (Venessa knows she is not being fed spiritually in her church and that it's not of the Lord, but she is going anyway.) The lady didn't seem to like me very much and I could see that she was studying me closely. (I represent true Christianity and a disciple of Jesus, the daughter of Zion. And just like in Jesus' day, the false church and Pharisees will hate the real Jesus and His disciples.)      I knew if I went with Venessa to her house, she would pretend that she was sick so I couldn't come in. (The denominations do not want the real Jesus of the Bible, nor the ones whom Jesus lives in.) Venessa was going to go anyway even though I don't think she really wanted to. (My friend in real life has wanted to leave, but has had a hard time coming out. I believe there could be witchcraft and manipulation involved, but I know she will escape.)      I could see in a vision the woman's house. It was a very large brick house and I could see that she had a lot of pride in it. (The bricks are a man-made material made out of clay and so they are building their own earthly kingdom and not the kingdom of God. They try to impress people with their earthly kingdom to gain followers and church members, but they make the people twice as much a child of hell than themselves like in Matthew 23.) And it was behind a chain-link fence. (In captivity to their false doctrines, and bondage to the flesh.) The neighborhood didn't look like the best neighborhood and it was very gray outside. (No sun/Son at all; gray represents death.)    At some point in this vision, I could see my friend's brother named Charlie was trying to let a large black dog out from inside the fence, but the door to the gate didn't stay open long enough for it to come out. I believe he was trying to help the dog escape. (The dog could represent the beastly man in bondage and is not able to escape unless they turn to the Lord, the real Jesus.)     The lady then decided that I could come to her house after all, and I believe she was having hot dogs for dinner. (Processed man-made food. Not the real food of the Word of God, Jesus, Who is the Manna from heaven. Jesus said His meat was to do the will of the Father in John 4:34.) I feel like this lady wanted to show off her large house and seemed prideful about it, but I had already bought dinner for me and Zoé. And then I woke up.      By faith, I asked the Lord for a Word about this dream and I received:     Isaiah 5:11-12 Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that tarry late into the night, till wine inflame them! 12 And the harp and the lute, the tabret and the pipe, and wine, are in their feasts; but they regard not the work of Jehovah, neither have they considered the operation of his hands.    Come Out From Among Them  Winnie Osegueda 9/19/21 (David's notes in red)    I dreamt that it was my birthday and we were having a gathering at a large cafeteria for my birthday. (A cafeteria is where we are supposed to eat the unleavened Word of God, but this was a mixed multitude.) There were two groups of people there - Local UBM, as well as a church that Chuc and I were once part of when we lived in North Carolina.   When I first walked in, David approached me, took me to the side, and put his right arm around me as I was standing to his right, and gently spoke into my ear and said that the people had to leave by 10:42. (Ten represents law. In Rev 11:2, the outer court (The flesh) of the temple was to be given to the Gentiles, who would trample the holy city (bride) underfoot for forty-twomonths. When this crucifixion of the Bride is over the apostates will be gone from her and the Lord in the Man-child will come to her to lead her.)   This was because Anna had an appointment there with her baby. (David represents the Man-Child and Anna, the bride (Who has borne fruit), which has an appointed time. (The mixed multitude has to leave the bride before the coming of the Man-child to her as we have learned. We have been in this process and the last ones may have just left. 10:42 represents the time given the bride to bear fruit by the leaving of the last apostates.) I said okay, but wondered about the short amount of time that we had to hang out and have pizza. (A mixed assortment of food will be up when the Man-child comes for the bride.)    I walked further into the cafeteria and I saw UBM on the right and our old church on the left. (The sheep on the right and the goats on the left.)(Those who factioned out are always on the left in our dreams.) At first the old church's main pastor was on the right, as well as his son, but then I saw that they were now on the left side. (He was possibly once on the right in the beginning of his Christian walk, but gave into worldly lusts and fell to the left as many do who put themselves into a position of authority.)   I went to say hello to the Pastor of the previous church, and he had a very thick black beard, which he does not have in real life, as well as black hair on his head. (Black haired represents being submitted to darkness.) He seemed to be a bit standoffish when I went to speak with him. I then saw his son, who is a man in his late 20s, early 30s, holding a clear and black plastic container.(Our outer man is a container for the spirit man. Black here means walking in darkness.)   It had flat wood pieces in it. (Representing the works of the flesh. The part of the container that was clear represents that his flesh was seen by others.1Co 3:12-13 But if any man buildeth on the foundation gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, stubble; 13 each man's work shall be made manifest…)     He was holding it out, so at first, I thought he was giving it to me as a birthday gift, but then realized quickly it was for him to play Jenga, with some other people at his table. (Jenga is a block stacking game where each person pulls a block out below until the stack becomes unstable and falls and they lose. I would say their foundation is unstable.)  I began to talk to him about how we would play that game with our 4-year-old daughter, Zoe', but I again was met with a cold response, like there was no interest in engaging in dialogue with me whatsoever.    I decided to leave at this point with Chuc, Angelica, Crystal, and India. Angelica said we needed to go to the next city, so that Crystal could get the pasta sauce she had been looking for. (The pasta sauce could represent the blood of Jesus.) I got in the car with Chuc, India, and Crystal and Angelica drove in her car to our right.   Angelica then calls India on the phone, and I can see her from my window speaking to India. She told India that I was supposed to have received 50-dollar gift cards from them (referring to the previous church) as a birthday gift.(50 represents the Holy Spirit who came on Pentecost meaning 50. This feast was known as the “feast of harvest” or the “day of first-fruits”. We receive power to be in the first-fruits harvest when we receive the Holy Spirit. And 50 also represents a Jubilee or freedom from bondage. If a Church does not supply this “gift” it is a failure and should close its doors.)   The Lord showed Angelica they didn't give the gift because they had a spirit of jealousy. India then passes the phone to me so that Angelica could speak to me, but there was some interference and I couldn't hear her. (Did they pick up Witchcraft there? They had the false revival spirit below.) I was asking her a question that felt very important (I do not remember what it was), but because of the interference, I could not make out the answer, so I told her that she could just tell me in person. (Confusion is Babylon come out.)   Just when we were about to end our conversation, I asked her to please call David and let him know that I left and if he could just have all the people leave. (So the Man-child could receive His Bride who had born fruit.) Then Chuc woke me up saying, "It's 9:30." (The nineth hour was the end of the crucifixion for Jesus. The Day of Atonement was on the nineth day of the 7thHebrew month. 30 is the age when a priest could begin service. Jesus was 30. The Man-child will begin spiritually at 30 when He comes for the bride.   I also woke up to Crystal sending me a video of our old church because she wanted to show me that they had let in a false revival spirit. This was definitely not a coincidence.     I texted Angelica about the dream not knowing that she had just asked the Lord for a word by faith and received: 2 Cor 6:17-18 Wherefore Come ye out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, And touch no unclean thing; And I will receive you, 18 And will be to you a Father, And ye shall be to me sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. She also was not aware of the dream I just had.     I was pondering on the dream and thought about David saying that they had to leave by 10:42. I was led to open up the four gospels and the Book of Acts to chapter 10 and verse 42 in each book. Three out of the four gospels end in verse 42, which I do not believe is by chance. (The 42 time ends with the sanctification of the Bride of the apostates so in this way it is positive.)   Matthew 10:42 And whosoever shall give to drink unto one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, verily I say unto you he shall in no wise lose his reward.      Luke 10:42 but one thing is needful: for Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.    John 10:41-42 And many came unto him; and they said, John indeed did no sign: but all things whatsoever John spake of this man were true. 42 And many believed on him there.     Acts 10:42 And he charged us to preach unto the people, and to testify that this is he who is ordained of God to be the Judge of the living and the dead. 

"David gave...Solomon...the plans of all that the Spirit had put in his mind for the..temple of the Lord." 1Ch 28:11-12 NIVThe first Jewish temple ranks as one of the architectural wonders of the ancient world.Built in the tenth century BC, the project's scope was so massive that Solomon employed thirty thousand loggers and eighty thousand stonecutters. More than three thousand foremen managed the seven-year project. The temple was the epicenter of Judaism. It was the place of sacrifice. It was the place of worship. It was the place of pilgrimage. But like everything else, the temple was once a figment of the imagination.The cumulative history of the Jewish temple can be traced all the way back to an idea in the mind of King David. But it wasn't David's idea. "David gave his son Solomon the plans for the portico of the temple, its buildings, its storerooms, its upper parts, its inner rooms and the place of atonement. He gave him the plans of all that the Spirit had put in his mind for the courts of the temple of the Lord." We have no idea how God downloaded the plans to David. JPEGs? PDFs? Mental images?Detailed drawings? One thing is sure: The plans for the temple were not manufactured in David's mind, they originated with the Spirit of God. The temple wasn't just a good idea, it was a God idea. So, ask God for an idea. Pray for a plan. Why? Two reasons. First because the Bible says, "Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart" (Ps 37:4 NIV). Second, when something is conceived by God's Spirit, it is sure to succeed.Support the showChanging Lives | Building Strong Family | Impacting Our Community For Jesus Christ!

Anarchy, Civil War and Destruction Coming (Audio) David Eells - 4/26/23 The Eagle Devours Itself Missy Pollock - 3/16/23 (David's notes in red) I dreamed it was daytime. (In this dream daytime represents that The Powers That Be are no longer trying to hide their evil deeds. The un-Civil war becomes overt.) I saw two paratroopers dressed in camouflage uniforms falling through the sky and they hadn't pulled their ripcords yet. (These two camouflaged paratroopers represent the two factions in the military of the Alliance and the DS Beast who are warring overtly at the moment. The type in history that is being repeated is that Babylon/D.S. is falling to the Medio-Persian/Alliance empire. The military in the U.S. is split between these two which is the perfect scenario for a Civil war.) The paratrooper on the right shot the other paratrooper on the left with a rifle in the stomach. (The right wing of the Eagle is defeating the left wing.)  The paratrooper on the left that was shot was surprised and said to those in command via some kind of communication device, "I've been shot!" Then I woke up. (At this time the right wing is shooting the left-wing soldiers, be they military or not.) (I was reading up a little on paratroopers and they are used strategically to drop forces behind enemy lines and to quickly get boots on the ground where needed.)(At this point this is a covert war so it's all behind enemy lines.) These were my verses I received by faith at random for the morning meeting that the Lord told me go with the dream. I got these verses the night before I had the dream!  Dan 11:4, (in context 1-4) [1] And as for me, in the first year of Darius the Mede, I stood up to confirm and strengthen him. [2] And now will I show thee the truth. Behold, there shall stand up yet three kings in Persia; and the fourth shall be far richer than they all: and when he is waxed strong through his riches, he shall stir up all against the realm of Greece.  [3] And a mighty king shall stand up, that shall rule with great dominion, and do according to his will. [4] And when he shall stand up, his kingdom shall be broken, and shall be divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion wherewith he ruled; for his kingdom shall be plucked up, even for others besides these. (In general, Babylon was conquered by Media-Persia, which was conquered by Greece.)      The Division of America at Election Time   Prophet Ken Dewey - 4/20/23 (David's notes in red) What I hear [from the Lord] is that “The Elections will not satisfactorily happen in 2024 and when they do not, there will be a great exodus from Washington DC, and they will start another government over the true America somewhere in the south.” (What we are hearing is that after NESARA/GESARA is declared, there must be an election within 120 days for the new republic of the U.S. This would make his statement above of the election in 2024 correct for it would not come to pass.) Years ago, I heard that there would be a great division in this land and a huge Civil War. This, in part, has already begun. But things will get worse, until the end of present things. Years ago, I heard The LORD say, “If America does not repent of abortion, He would smash this nation to pieces.” That, in part, has already begun to happen — and I heard [Him say] He is “greatly concerned about the morality in America.” Years ago, I also heard the LORD say, “The South will rise again — but this time when they do they will not be fighting to keep slaves, but will be fighting against becoming slaves.” This, in part, has already happened. Today we see many Southern States — or states identifying as such — becoming bolder and making great changes from the present administration, and The Deep State. If you will take, note of this one fact: our rightful President [who was refused office by a dishonest vote], has moved to Florida. If you will note, there is strong leadership also in Florida — but, one only needs to read the news to see there is great leadership coming out of Texas and other Southern States. Years ago, I heard the LORD say, “The Government will fall down so hard in Washington DC that the Government will have to be rebuilt.” (There is no government in Washington D.C. now. All the previous buildings have been closed down.) I heard Him say that “New leaders would rise up in Texas and the South.” I hear [Him say] today, “Men will not continue to be forced to live by the present social and global leaders in this nation. Enough is enough!” (The D.S. is falling.) I hear reports (already happening and spoken) about whole States and even parts of States seceding from the United States of America (The USA) and becoming sovereign within themselves. The rustling of this move is already in the air. I personally hear [the Lord say] that to vote this time, will not even count. Men must do more than vote. What I have not heard for sure, is who may be the true American President after 2024. (It is possible that Trump will go into the presidency before the 2024 election since many states have decertified the vote from 2020.) But already there are very capable men rising to this task. When the American people are forced beyond what they are able to bear, they will elect a true President. That President could, very well, be ex-President Trump. He certainly is one who is leading out. Who the new American Government will elect as president will be yet decided… But one thing I hear that is very likely……. It will not be in Washington DC.! I hear that God will not force men in America to serve Him, but when they reject Him, the LORD will simply reject them. Even as it says in Romans that, when they did not like to even retain the knowledge of God, then God gave them up to live as they please. The LORD simply pulled back and watched them, awaiting their final judgment, some day. History is repeating itself! One thing for sure I hear today, is that God will never forsake His People in this Nation, and anywhere else. God will forever lead them into a greater life with Him. I hear the greater life is coming for people in America who love God and choose Him. And I hear that God will fight for them to protect them. I have written this Word as led to speak. I have only said what I have heard said to me. The thoughts here are led by The Holy Spirit. Romans 1:28-32 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them.      Blood on the U.S. Flag   Michael Boldea Jr. - October 2003 HandofHelp.com (David's notes in red) In early January, our ministry was notified by a supporter in Florida that as her husband was looking at the 2004 Marine Calendar February page and he noticed a Marine standing by the flag. At that moment he saw in a vision the flag drip with blood. There is great significance to the dream Michael was given and we know before God allows judgments or warnings, he always warns, and God always prepares his people. Psalm 32: 6-7, For this cause everyone who is Godly shall pray to you in a time when you maybe found; surely in a flood of great waters they shall not come near him. You are my hiding place; you shall preserve me from trouble; you shall surround me with songs of deliverance. It was October 11th, … [and] During the night I had a dream.  I dreamed I was kneeling by my bedside praying when I felt a presence behind me.  I turned, and a man was standing there, dressed in white, his hands clasped in front of him. It was the same man I had seen in a dream sometime earlier. "Why didn't you say something, if you were standing there," I asked. "I would never interrupt your communion with the Father," he answered. It was a precious thing. Take my hand, I must show you something." I took his hand and suddenly we were standing in front of the U.S. Marine War Memorial. It is a statue depicting a group of soldiers raising the American flag on Iwo Jima in WW2. I looked to the man standing on my right, but he pointed toward the statue, and said, "Look at the flag." As I was watching the flag flap in the wind, a red spot appeared in its center, it began to grow, and spread turning the flag red as it went. It was like someone had spilled this red liquid in the flag's center, and [it was] absorbing it, the stain continued to grow.  I watched, as the entire flag became saturated, until it finally started to drip. To my surprise, I realized the liquid dripping from the flag was blood.  "What is this supposed to mean"? I asked the man. "The leaders of this nation have war on their hearts, and on their lips, and soon they will have blood on their hands. The banner of war is upon this land” the man answered solemnly. (The DS Eugenicists would love to kill as many people on the planet as possible and profit from their schemes and tactics all at the same time.) Before I could ask anything more, I found myself sitting up in bed in a cold sweat.  I shared this dream with a friend that Sunday night, as I happened to be speaking in his church in Topeka.  I also shared it with Geno and the rest of the staff here at the Hand Of Help office, but in my heart I decided not to make it public until after the holidays.  … Then 3 weeks after this dream I had another.  I dreamed the same man was standing by my bedside, but he was no longer dressed in white. Over his robe, he had a breastplate, and as he stood, I could see the handle of his sword protruding from behind his right shoulder. It was the fiercest image I had ever seen in my life, but I was not afraid. Kindness still showed in his eyes, and I knew he meant me no harm.  As I looked up at him the one thing that struck me was that his breastplate was not shiny. For some reason, I had expected it to shine, rather it was dented and scarred, and looked as though it had seen much battle. He looked down at me with what I could only describe as disappointment in his eyes.  Before I could speak, he said, "For a vessel to fulfill its task, substance must be poured into it, then that same substance must be poured out.  If it is never poured out, it will overflow, being of use to no one.  Do you understand?"  I nodded half heartedly, although I knew what he was trying to tell me. "When a vessel is chosen it is an honor," he continued, "Be faithful in completing your task and share what is given you without delay.  Come I will show you once more.” Once again, we stood before the monument and the same scene played out. "When will this happen?" I asked, before he could turn away. "When the Father wills it", he answered.  "His will be done.” "Can't you ask him?" I asked, realizing only after the words had left my mouth how infantile the question had been. "You speak of the things your mind cannot comprehend".  "You speak of time concerning the One to whom centuries are no more then a blink of an eye.  Be diligent in what you have been shown, and more will be revealed.  All things proceed as He ordains, that is all you are given to know for now." The dream ended, and I found myself in bed. I have had some time to contemplate this dream, and if I was one given to speculation there are many theories, I could come up with but I am [will] not. What I do know, is whether in retaliation for a certain action, or as a preemptive measure, this nation will set out on a course that will eventually be the cause of innocents losing their lives. This nation will, be perceived as having blood on its hands and it will stir the emotions of the world against it. I pray with all my heart this does not occur; that all who are denoting peace and safety for generations to come are right, and I am wrong. (He is not wrong. The Bible prophesies no peace until Jesus returns at His second coming at the end of the Tribulation.) Regardless of what some may think, I do not want to see the judgment of God fall on this land, but the path we have chosen as a nation is leading us to it. More then ever, I urge you to pray for this nation and its leaders, because it is our duty as children of God to do so. May he who ordains all things be with you and guide you, knowing that in Him there is perfect safety, and perfect peace…     The Eagle and the Serpents   Michael Boldea Jr. - October 15, 2004 HandofHelp.com (David's notes in red)   (This is the message God gave Michael Boldea through a dream while he was in North Carolina. He asked for a confirmation of this message and asked God simply to give him the dream again if it was from Him. The next night he had the same dream.) …I dreamt I was walking through a sparsely wooded forest, and suddenly my attention was drawn to an eagle flying high above the tree line.  It was a beautiful sight to behold as the eagle rode the thermals, flying in slow lazy arks across the blue sky. I began to quicken my pace, and keep up with the eagle's flight, all the while keeping an eye on it, noticing that it was slowly descending toward the earth. I followed it for a long time, its descent not being sudden, but very gradual. (The U.S. is falling away more and more from a heavenly position.) Finally, I came upon a small clearing, where there were no trees, just some bushes on the edges of the green grass. The eagle landed in the clearing and began to look around not seeming to notice me. As I began to wonder what the relevance of this was, a man dressed in white, hands clasped in front of him, appeared beside me, and said, "Be patient, in due time you will see the purpose." I was silent as I watched the eagle, and was beginning to grow somewhat impatient, when suddenly, it seemed out of nowhere, a brown snake lunged at the eagle, and bit down on its left wing. (The brown Nazi snake from Operation Paperclip has destroyed the Left wing.) The snake's strike was very quick and very precise.  The eagle reacted without delay, clawing, and pecking at the snake cutting deep wounds in its underbelly, trying to defend itself and ward off the serpent.   Just as it seemed the eagle was winning the battle, and the serpent was retreating, another serpent appeared, red and black diagonal stripes covering its body, (Red and black are the colors of Anarchy. The D.S. has many anarchists to begin their overt Civil War.) and without hesitation struck out at the eagle's right wing, biting down, and refusing to release. (The Alliance is expecting this and is planning martial law to be able to destroy the anarchists.) After a momentary tug of war, the serpent tore off flesh and feathers, leaving a large wound on the eagle's right wing. (Eventually the right wing of the US Government represented by the Trump/White Hats will be wounded.) The second bite was much worse than the first, and for an instant the eagle was stunned.   Then a serpent much larger than the previous two, made up of many colors, slithered toward the eagle, opened its jaws, and lunged, taking the whole of the eagle's head in its mouth before biting down. (This is the final One World Order Beast of Revelation 13, represented by Alexander the Great, thought by some to be Obama.) The serpents retreated and the man who had been standing beside me, walked to the eagle, knelt down, picked it up, and held it in his cupped hands. The look of grief on his face was beyond any I have seen in my life. Just seeing the look on the man's face broke your heart.  (There is no doubt that DS Babylon as a political and economic force will be destroyed by our Cyrus/Trump. This does not mean the anarchy guerilla war, with CCP, help will be over. The freedoms we have known, that the Eagle at high altitude enjoyed, will be over with the headship of our own nation. The Beast of Revelations will rule with the alien/demons.) The man continued to look down at the eagle, and with a pained voice said, "The true tragedy, is that at any moment it could have sought the safety of the above, it could have soared toward the heavens and would have found its protection. (2Ch. 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.) This has been revealed to you, that you may know, the first bite has been, the second is yet to come, and the third will be its destruction.” (This dream was in 2004. Since then, the Nazi's have taken over the Left wing. We are about to witness the second bite of the Anarchist, Civil War snake. We just passed the 248th anniversary of “the shot heard around the world” on April 20th that began the Revolutionary war.) I watched for a long time as the man held the eagle in the palms of his hands, the pained expression never leaving his features. I was too stunned to speak, or ask any questions, what I had seen having seemed so real. (I Woke up)     Worldwide Rebellion Released    Claire Pienaar - 3/26/23 (David's Notes in Red) I dreamed I was sitting in a white lounge. (The white lounge represents purity and resting in our continual Sabbath rest.) I was sitting with my dad's twin sister. (The dad's twin sister represents those who have the same nature and character of the Father.) My mother-in-law and her children used to stay in this house, but they were no longer living there, although some of their belongings were still there. (The legalistic Apostates and their children will be separated from the true house of God that requires sanctification and rest from our works. Gal. 5:4 Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace.) I saw the DVD case of a rock band's concert tour that my older brother-in-law had gone to with his young son. The DVD case was red and black, and it said “Rebellion World Tour” on it. (Red and Black are the colors of Anarchy which is rebellion against the establishment authority. The D.S. plans to disrupt the declass on TVs of all their criminal activity with anarchy during the “10 days of darkness”.)  My aunt turned on the DVD player and, as it came on the TV, I felt a hot wave emanate from the TV all over the world. I knew a spirit of rebellion had been unleashed. (Yes. Witchcraft and rebellion have been released across the world in pockets and it will increase and become even worse as we head into the 7-year Tribulation. The Lord has told us that He will use the D.S. war to bring down apostates and factious people. 2Ti. 3:1-9 But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, 4 traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God;  5 holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power therefore. From these also turn away. 6 For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts, 7 ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 And even as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also withstand the truth. Men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further. For their folly shall be evident unto all men, as theirs also came to be.) The men were hard rock or death metal people, with long hair, and some were dressed up as wizards. Others were only dressed in black and grey. As they started singing, I saw them speak out curses. (Could this represent the MSM witches with their mass propaganda campaigns to hypnotize and brainwash the masses. Also, the witches have all aligned with the Left wing and send forth curses against the Right wing and its leaders.) Then I woke up.      Slaying the Dragon Marie Kelton - 2/17/23 (David's notes in red)   I had a dream of being in a stairwell. I was at the top of the stairs and at the bottom was a huge black dragon that was blocking me from leaving. His eyes were yellow with black pupils. The Dragon (Satan) was staring at me menacingly.  I became afraid and was going to run into a room that was next to the stairs, to my left. But then I heard a voice say, "He is a defeated foe."  I then had the courage to run down the stairs with my sword and slew the dragon, which was easier than I thought because all I did was cut of his tail (Representing false prophets of the MSM and apostates. Isa 9:15: The elder and the honorable man, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail.) (Take down the false media and the dragon of the Devil in DS Babylon is finished. They are about to bring down their satellites and prosecute them. The Alliance will own the media. A world Civil war will be raised up. It's evident that though the D.S. will lose, it will greatly damage the Alliance and will make way for the Grecian Anti-Christ empire to fill the void. Everything will change. We have seen some evidence that Obama's clone is killed, and he escapes to fulfill the type of Alexander the great of the next beast kingdom represented by Greece.) Marie went on to say: I was celebrating joyfully, as I was going down the second flight of stairs leaving the place, I was in. Then I saw a white cloth or shirt with streaks of blood on it. Then I woke up.      The Violent Take it by Force   Debbie Fenske - October 2022 (David's notes in red) I remember on our Zoom meeting, concerning someone's scripture David said, "We have to be violent in our warfare against the enemy." This reminded me of 1Sa. 15 where Samuel rebuked Saul for disobeying God for not killing Agag the king of the Amalekites, but brought him back with some sheep, that he also was commanded to kill.  So, after all that took place between them, Saul went back with Samuel to worship the Lord. Then Samuel had Agag brought to him, and Samuel cut him into pieces. So, …even before this dream began, I knew in my sub conscious that I was going to be shown something.  I dreamed I saw myself, wearing a red jacket, standing way up high in the sky on a very large, white platform of hard rock. (The red jacket represents being covered by the sacrificial blood of Jesus and being up in heavenly places in Him and being founded on the Rock which the Bible says represents Christ.) I saw some of the white base that was supporting the platform, extending down. All around me was the dark, blueish-black night sky filled with so many stars. When I looked way down, all I could see were tiny lights far and wide.  Then I turned and I saw a man near the front of this platform. He was wearing a blue suit jacket. This man was violently hacking at something, or someone. He would not stop, and his jacket was flapping hard against his body as he kept on doing this. As I was looking at this man, his build reminded me of President Trumps. (Well, President Trump is known for his violent warfare against the enemies of the people. What we have seen is that what president Trump is in the natural world, the Man-child is in the spiritual world.) Then I noticed he was wearing a red tie that was loose and flying in the air as he kept doing this violent hacking. … Then I woke up. (I believe God was showing me how we should … always be ready to do this violent warfare. This dream is showing us how we have that authority. We must keep our feet standing on the solid rock, (of Christ), knowing we are made righteous through our faith in the blood of Jesus who is our righteousness.  And if we are keeping our mind in heavenly places, not forgetting as we look at the world around us, we have the authority to violently come against all the spiritual wickedness in high places, and over Satan, the prince of darkness, himself. It must be second nature to be ready to go immediately into spiritual warfare, and not be complacent about it, but forceful and violent; knowing that the weapons of spiritual warfare are ours. They are powerful and mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.)     Our Authority in His Name  Tiannah Fire - 4/19/23 (David's notes in red)    I was in the half-awake, half-asleep state, and I saw and experienced how everything in this world and all unclean spirits were literally under me or Jesus in me, and we are high above it all, spiritually. (Nothing can compare to the pure, holy Name of Jesus. Luk 10:17 Now the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us in thy name.   I saw, clearer than ever, that I am a child of the Creator of everything, and Jesus is living in me completely and that how Jesus in me has ALL power and authority over everything. 1Jn 4:4 YE are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is the one in you than the one in the world.   I saw this all so clear, in full, 100% without any doubt, unbelief, or hindrance. I saw it more true and real than anything I have ever experienced. Although I believe all of this is true and speak and confess the Word, I don't always manifest it yet. This is the only time I have felt or experienced it fully. But, in this experience, I was fully manifesting it, and it was so awesome and so real, beyond any words to properly describe it. I saw that absolutely nothing evil can touch me, and with one word or with just a thought; the sick were healed, the devils fled as they knew it's Christ in me. When in this state, I knew that the spirits and creation knew that it was Jesus in me in all His power and authority and they knew there was nothing they could do. (Awesome power is in the Name of Jesus!)  When awake, I normally battle doubt and not knowing my identity in Christ, and this hinders His power flowing through me. The devil knows this and is always trying to get us to doubt. But in this experience, there was no doubt. It was like I could see through all the lies, deception, and carnality and I could see all truth. Everything felt so real, and it was more awesome than any words can say. The unclean spirits I saw just looked at me and they knew it was Jesus so, they didn't even bother doing anything. With just a thought they were stopped, and they couldn't do anything else without Jesus giving them the green light. It felt like it was the Word and Jesus fully manifested in me. There was no flesh left; nothing blocking Jesus from manifesting. (This vision or experience represents a glimpse of a time when we will have overcome through Jesus the Man-child in us.)  It was disappointing when I fully woke up, and the experience faded away, but I believe for God's grace for all of us and for Him to manifest Himself fully through us all. I pray for us to all be completely dead to everything unholy and everything that hinders us spiritually.     Anarchy, Civil War and Destruction Coming (2) (Audio) David Eells - 4/30/23 The Lord's Evil Army Marie Kelton - 4/21/23 (David's notes in red) During the meeting, I had an open vision of a demonic army. They were very huge and tall, and I knew they had weapons. I heard the Lord say, “This army is for the evil ones, and the disobedient.” (This is very similar to the demonic army warring through the Assyrian Northern army in Joel that took down apostate Israel and Judah but not Jerusalem, the Bride.) (This verse came to mind: Joel 2:7-11 They run like mighty men; they climb the wall like men of war; and they march everyone on his ways, and they break not their ranks. Neither doth one thrust another; they march everyone in his path; and they burst through the weapons and break not off their course. They leap upon the city; they run upon the wall; they climb up into the houses; they enter in at the windows like a thief. The earth quaketh before them; the heavens tremble; the sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining. And Jehovah uttereth his voice before his army; (God claims sovereignty over all vessels good and bad.) for his camp is very great; for he is strong that executeth his word; for the ; for the day of Jehovah is great and very terrible; and who can abide it? Speaking to the Bride the Lord says in, Isa. 54:15-17 Behold, they may gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall because of thee. 16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the fire of coals, and bringeth forth a weapon for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. 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 Jehovah, and their righteousness which is of me, saith Jehovah. (And here we see the same scenario; the Lord using the evil army to take down the enemies of the Bride.) Isa. 62:11 – 63:4, Behold, Jehovah hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. 12 And they shall call them The holy people, The redeemed of Jehovah: and thou shalt be called Sought out, A city not forsaken. 63:1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, marching in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. 2 Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winevat? (Representing the slaughter of the factious Edomites in Church and deep state, who warred against the Bride.) 3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me: yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment. 4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed is come. (Here is another beast army taking down the enemies of the Bride. Isa 66:5-7 Hear the word of Jehovah, ye that tremble at his word: Your brethren that hate you, that cast you out for my name's sake, have said, Let Jehovah be glorified, that we may see your joy; but it is they that shall be put to shame. 6 A voice of tumult from the city, a voice from the temple, a voice of Jehovah that rendereth recompense to his enemies. (Here we see the Lord's recompence to His enemies of the Bride and her reward of the Man-child that follows.) 7 Before she travailed, she brought forth; before her pain came, she was delivered of a man-child. Psa 136:13 To him that divided the Red Sea in sunder; For his lovingkindness endureth forever. God's people were at peace with the Egyptians until they factioned against God's people and chased them into the Red Sea where the waves collapsed upon them and destroyed the faction. The waves represented the D.S. army who have already destroyed the faction and the apostates through the vaccine. We know that greater plagues are now coming, including the destruction of the food and the poisoning of the water, air, and food sources, and invasion of the anarchists and invasion over our southern border.) Back to Marie: An angel of the Lord was standing and watching the demonic army march on. Then, I saw the Lord, on a throne behind the demonic army. (Isa. 45:7 I form the light, and create darkness; I make peace, and create evil. I am Jehovah, that doeth all these things.) The Lord was dressed as a king, and his right arm was raised with his index finger pointed out. He seemed like he was giving directions to the army. I saw this twice.  I thought to myself, “I'm just seeing things.” and I wasn't going to write it down. I then saw the Lord come off his throne and his garments changed into a white linen robe. The Lord walked up to me and handed me a pencil and a pad of paper. I knew, then, that he wanted me to write the vision down. Anna thought of this verse when I told her the vision, Psa. 78:48-49, He gave over their cattle also to the hail, And their flocks to hot thunderbolts. He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, Wrath, and indignation, and trouble, A band of angels of evil.     Satan's Cyclone Army  Tianna Fire - 4/25/23 (David's notes in red) I saw, from a bird's eye view, a large desert part of a country that was isolated, and I couldn't see many people above ground there. I saw what looked like a black storm cyclone starting to form, and it was moving clockwise but staying in the same spot. (The U.S. is isolated on both coasts by oceans and there is a D.S. army gathering, represented by the black cyclone, made up of anarchists in the country and Chinese military age men gathering below the boarder to meet up with the anarchists. Pro. 1:27 When your fear cometh as a storm, And your calamity cometh on as a whirlwind, When distress and anguish come upon you. And Pro. 10:25 When the whirlwind passeth, the wicked is no more; But the righteous is an everlasting foundation.) It grew bigger and larger very quickly and it became bigger than the size of Texas. It was a very dark, black color, not white. (I looked up to see if black cyclones were really a thing and in images it produced a “Saturn cyclone” (Saturn which represents satan). (As in Marie's dream above the physical armies have a demonic army among them operating to conquer America.) I had understanding that it was going to soon move down onto the earth in areas where people were. I heard, “They are conjuring up a portal to hell.” (Soon the demon army will take control of the invading armies and the underground war will become visible.) Then I woke up. This reminded me of a song picture called “black cyclone- death is king” and a creepy fake black cyclone with a blue eyeball from a video game is that is a Black/Floating enemy that appears in Event Stages. (The floating enemy is the demon army.)     Precision in Prayer and Warfare Over Enemies   Dana Coverstone - July 2022 (David's notes in red) Youtube Video Link …I had this dream for 18 days in a row and on the 18th day, the “Archer” in this dream showed up and that's when I knew the dream is either over or I'm going to learn what the dream is about.) (I asked the Lord if our authority over the forces of darkness will annul some of this coming judgment and got a YES. Then I asked if we have authority to annul all of this and got a NO. So, pray and ask directions to exercise your authority.) … The dream started on June 15, 2022. I was standing in a shipping yard where large containers were being lifted off of the container ships by … huge cranes.… and there was a sign that said, “Port of Los Angeles.” (A port is an entrance into the country. Los Angeles means, “The Angels”. Satan disguises himself as an angel of light, meaning of course, knowledge or wisdom. As we will see, the Chinese Communist Party are leading a revolution of anarchy against conservatism and Christianity. Although they have been badly wounded by the Alliance, they are capable of doing small things that cause big trouble.)  I saw 8, jet black containers that were set on the ground about 15 feet apart …and they were pristinely clean. … with large Chinese or oriental letters on them. These large letters were in black and they were about five feet tall by five feet wide and they had a brownish black background behind them, so they stood out almost like 3D on the containers. (5X5 is a military term meaning, “Loud and clear." As we will see, these events take place in broad daylight. Our enemies are not even trying to hide what they are doing any longer.) They were very suspicious and just set aside or apart from everything else. (The black indicates some clandestine plans that are being revealed or some darkness.[Deception being brought into this country.]) … It was broad daylight, not night, and I could see a large clock tower that seemed to be suspended high above the shipping facility. It was exactly set on 3:00 in the afternoon and when I saw this, all the eight doors of those shipping containers …began to bang like someone was inside them trying get out. There were no people outside of the containers but I saw they began to shake and they were banging violently. (There was a hidden agenda about to be revealed. The clock tower was showing us a sign.  Jesus went to the cross at about the third hour and it was dark on the earth for about 3 hours. I want to emphasize that it was bright light outside, it wasn't high noon, but you could see everything that was going on.) Suddenly, the door of the first container opened and a man in military equipment rode out on a very large, green, dirt bike like a Kawasaki. It had saddle bags on both sides and very large knobby tires. These dirt bikes were higher caliber dirt bikes. The guy that pulled out on this motorcycle was covered in military gear. He had an AK-47 over his back and he took his helmet off and stepped off the bike and put the kickstand down. (off-road bikes can go anywhere in the city or country. [Representing the ability to infiltrate any area of the country desired.]) When he took his helmet off, he was revealing himself as an oriental man. (The Chinese CCP is D.S. and are fighting to subvert and overthrow the country.) He began violently screaming towards the trucks and the shipping containers. He was pointing in different directions and looking back at the trucks… He was violently angry and his face was very very red. Suddenly, he just stopped and checked his watch. Then he put his helmet back on and got back on the motorcycle and started revving the engine. It just revs and revs and revs. He has not put it in gear and, all at once, that clock tower struck 4:00 and there was this deep sounding bell that rang out and the whole earth shook.  I mean the whole earth just shook so angrily, even where I was, standing in the background watching. (We've got to face the fact that, not just our natural enemies of America are angry but our spiritual enemy is angry right now, as things are being revealed. I think doors are opening and things are happening… I believe we're about to see something happen that's going to shake the earth and it's going to start a downhill trend of things or events from here.) (We have dreams where mad scientists are planning great earthquakes in the U.S. Since this is all in the daylight, it's possible that they want a distraction so the invasion can come across the border as we will see. We've been told that the White Hats plan on intercepting the invasion and turning it around, and as we can see, for some reason this doesn't happen.) Then, out of each of those other containers including the one the man came out of, rode about 25 soldiers on the same kind of motorcycles with the same kind of saddlebags and the same AK-47's across their backs. I could also see rocket propelled grenades, lots of ammo, and weapons in those saddlebags and they were hardly able to be strapped down because they were loaded for bear. (200 soldiers with this kind of weaponry could do a lot of damage in the right places but they could also be military advisors for the invaders coming across the border and sleeper cells. These weapons could also represent deceptions of words and propaganda to cause anarchy since the Chinese own all the media outlets.) When the first soldier, who had been revving his engine and giving the instructions, took off out of that port, the rest of them followed and I could see that when they got beyond the large fence of the Los Angeles Port, they took off, just speeding heavily in all different directions. (Meaning they are independently sent to join different groups.) (Now these weapons were definitely going to be used to attack and we know the church has been under attack and crisis pregnancy centers have been under attack but the Bible says, “Judgment begins in the house of God ” and … we've got people who are calling themselves Christians supporting abortions and others things … that God calls abominable. …I believe we're about to see a greater outpouring of judgment on the house of God which is Biblical. In that sense, this could very well show, not just attacks on the country, but attacks on the Church. (This is what God has told us is coming and what Babylon did to the apostates using sword, famine, and pestilence.) Ezekiel chapter 8:16-18 says, And he brought me into the inner court of Jehovah's house; and behold, at the door of the temple of Jehovah, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of Jehovah, and their faces toward the east; and they were worshipping the sun toward the east. 17 Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have turned again to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose. 18 Therefore will I also deal in wrath; mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity; and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.) (The abominations in the apostate Church is bringing this judgment.) The scene then changed and I was hearing news reports and seeing newspaper articles and reporters who were announcing deaths all over the country; in both rural and metropolitan areas. The reports were about water supplies and water systems being poisoned in various places around the country. (We've had dreams and revelations about this too. The military is warning not to drink municipal water.) I saw headlines suggesting entire communities were poisoned in various places throughout the country. …The reporters were telling people to drink nothing but bottled water and/or water they knew was not connected to a local water supply. They were saying if you've got a well you should be okay but still you might want to boil it. This poison was affecting both larger and smaller communities but not every community. So this was not a nationwide thing, but it was impacting a lot of communities. It was impacting the Western portion of the country more than the other parts of the nation according to the reporters. They were announcing that there were National Guard units, fully armed, who are now watching water supplies in some of the bigger cities and parts of the nation. It was reported that thousands of people had died and that hospitals were full of heavily poisoned people getting medical treatment. FEMA centers and camps were being set up in those regions where people had been the most heavily poisoned and the water supply damaged. The Emergency Broadcast announcement that was running along the bottom of the TV screens and monitors stated that the boiling of water was not an effective way of making the water safe. (All this could be a distraction to our military to keep them from stopping the invasion across the border.) I then saw the clock tower appear above that municipal water supply and its hands pointed to 4:05 in the afternoon, once again this was occurring in broad daylight. (So we're definitely seeing some type of a literal attack but this could be a spiritual attack in the sense of what's going on with the deceptions in the Media; not knowing what's happening; not knowing what we're “drinking”, so to speak. … The time 4:05 indicates the idea that there's a countdown. First, the soldiers take off and now we're seeing the poisoning of the water supply. …Spiritually speaking, this represents being careful what we drink; being careful what we put into our body, being careful what we listen to; making sure that we test every spirit and listen carefully for the Word of God to …discern those things that are going on in our world and also that we're cautious and careful what we are consuming. …After I had the 18 days of dreams, I had two … short dreams; one where I saw some people watching TV monitors at airports and in homes and they were covering their mouths. It was like what they were seeing on the TV was so terrifying, like a 911 event, that they covered their mouths and it was summertime because I saw the grass was brown from the heat. I saw on the screens of every TV in America people crying, embracing each other and they were seemingly in shock. So fear is going to be a big weapon the enemy uses against the people.  I'm sure there'll be another pandemic that is going to be terrible; far terribly worse than the last one we've just had. In the dreams, the people who were watching the news weren't looking up and that's the key. I believe we cannot be afraid, as everybody else is, of what they're seeing and the things that are happening in America or around the world. We've got to be looking up. “look up for your redemption draws near.” If we're looking at the news and covering our mouth in horror, that means that we are not speaking because of fear and folks right now the Church needs to be fully aware of what's happening around us but not afraid …) Back to the dream … The next thing I saw was four lines of light that seemed to be coming up from the border all the way from Texas and California in broad daylight. (Representing that they were no longer attempting to hide their plans. This is a planned invasion over the border.) It seemed that many people were coming from the border but in a very organized way and they moved North, hundreds of miles… with lights bright enough to be seen from space. (As we said earlier, these lights could represent deception.) They all stopped moving at once and, when they did, smaller light trails from within the U.S. started moving towards the four big lines of light where the movement had stopped. (They're being joined by the CCP Chinese military advisors and sleeper cells. I remember George Washington's dream of the red light invasion from the East and how the angels had to come down and help the Americans who were almost overcome by it.) Then, suddenly, the smaller lights started attacking. (I could very much see this as being sleeper cells; (like leftist Anarchists, BLM, Antifa, and radical muslims) more people coming and the cells getting larger and larger. It was like watching moths drawn to a flame and the source lights kept getting bigger and bigger as the smaller lights came in.) … The source light kept getting bigger and bigger and then all four places flashed all at once and… everything went dark for a moment and then it pulsed almost like a slow light just going on and off. (This is what happened in the movie, “Red Dawn”. The Chinese invaders EMP'ed the Nation to take over.) Then it exploded and light was spread hundreds of miles from the source of that explosion. … Then I saw the clock tower again and it stood high above the ground and showed the time to be 4:10.  I saw small embers of flames that were coming down around the clock but not catching the ground on fire although it looked like fire coming down. (Missy had a dream that may have showed the embers of fire coming down out of the sky but not catching anything on fire just like this portion of Dana's dream. Both of these dreams seem to show the embers as being spiritual, A fire from Heaven.) So these explosions of the lights were spreading out and the flames were going hundreds of miles beyond them. (This probably fear from the mainstream media.) (There seemed to be a lot of intimidation going on during this time. It seemed like a worldly attack and at the same time the trails seemed to represent inroads for the enemy, spiritually speaking. …Whatever these 4 light trails were, they were drawing other people into them. The light and explosion wanted to be seen. There was no hiding what was coming up that trail. These things were coming up clearly in the daylight.) … Now there was shock and awe for a while but there was also fear that was projected out by this explosion. (Once again, the clock tower at 4:10 represents we are counting towards the next event.) … Then there was sudden silence and it permeated the atmosphere. (Representing persecution of free speech or fear to speak out.) I saw the clock strike 4:15 and suddenly there was this alarm going off almost like a tornado siren. A long wail was … going across the entire nation. It wasn't just focused on one area, but … no one was hearing the alarm. (They were feeling alarmed which affected their ability to be rational.) People didn't seem to know what they heard. I could hear it in the dream but nobody else seemed to hear it. (So that silence was almost like people not knowing what was coming next, but that alarm was saying, “Hey there's something happening. Something's coming but there were still people covering their mouths and the explosions from the trail of whatever it was coming up from the from the border and then that sudden silence… and in the background, the wail of that siren.)  Then the scene changed and I saw Churches of all shapes and sizes nationwide and they were surrounded by mobs of people screaming. They had placards and signs. ( This was more than just about the overturn of Roe V. Wade, this was more than just about Liberal agendas or drag queens talking to kids in libraries. These people were chanting hostile threats that they were going to burn the Churches down. (All of the anarchist, leftist groups taking this opportunity to bring down their enemies, the Christians.) They were going to kill the Christians. These were not idle threats.) They were saying, “We are going to kill you! We're going to burn your Church! We're going to do this or do that!” (This is one way D.S. Babylon destroyed the apostate people of God. And God's plan is to deliver His people from Babylonish religion so they may follow the Man-child reformers into the wilderness tribulation. Will it take burning some churches to accomplish this? Will it not scatter the people, hopefully to seek truth?) … They were all about 150 feet away and some maintained a distance. There was a bit of considerable difference between the protesters and the people yelling and screaming. Inside those Churches I could hear people leading others in prayer. But no one was praying very much out loud. There was no power, or authority in their prayers; it was just things like, “Oh God, you've got to help us. Oh God, can you save us? Oh God, look out there!” People in the Churches were looking out the windows and they were reporting, “Hey, the crowd's getting bigger! There's more people out there!” and yet at the same time nobody inside of the prayer circles were stepping up the prayer and being aggressive with it. (They have not been taught to pray with the authority of the promises of God. They are not used to getting answers to prayer either. This is why God wants the elect to "come out from among them” and seek true faith.) Suddenly, I saw five different churches: One in the Midwest, two in the Northeast, one in the Southeast and one in the Northwest. I saw one Church in each of those areas.  (5 is the number of grace. It appears that some churches will find grace to escape.) Arrows were being fired into the crowd from the roof of those Churches with bow and arrows and each of the arrows scattered the hostile crowds. (Is this the way part of this attack can be annulled or is there more in this warning dream to be annulled?) They hit the pavement and they scattered the protesters and they began to flee. As I watched the people scrambling, I noticed the Archer on each of those five churches appeared to be the very same man firing those arrows from all five locations simultaneously with precision and care.  (This one man is Jesus manifested in a corporate body of Man-child reformers who will defend what should be defended. In Esther, Mordecai meaning, “little man or man-child” was given authority over Haman and his army of haters of God's people, which turned the tide against them to save God's people. This is our Purim, our Passover.)  These arrows were against the words of attack… (Luk 10:18  And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven. 19  Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions,(These are different legions of demons.) and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. 20 Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in Heaven.) Then I realized that the alarm had been going off this whole time but the people in the Churches had been so concerned about the crowd they weren't hearing the alarm. (The alarm going off is the prophetic warnings of all these things that are being ignored by the apostate churches who no longer believe in prophetic warnings.) Now I had been seeing that clock tower this entire time and it finally stopped as the Archer started walking towards me. It was the man that I've previously seen in my dreams with a quiver full of sheer white arrows. (Representing the pure words of authority against the principalities and powers and rulers of this darkness.) They glowed even though it was the middle of the afternoon, and each of these arrows had an extremely sharp point. … They were just really really cool and ornate. … He then pulled, from over his back, this very large longbow (made for long distance warfare) and when he put it down in front of him, the bottom touched the ground and the top was about head high. Then the alarm stopped. (The Church had no authority in prayer or spiritual warfare but the Man-child types throughout history have had.) … The man stood silent for a few moments; He surveyed the area, but then he turned and was watching around the church areas and He said, “There must be precision in your prayers from this point forward; absolute precision, to counter the noise and the violence that will be aimed at the Body.”... (We are to cast down the demons of anarchy, hatred, slander, railing, perversion, antichrist, etc. who are in control of these attackers.) …Then He said, “The Church must remember, “it's not by might nor by power but by My Spirit” that will help you walk straight through the battle.” (This thing is spiritual that we are fighting. “we wrestle not against flesh and blood.” It's not the White House or Congress that we're fighting, it is spiritual things in darkness that have invaded this country and have deluded the minds of those around us.) Then He said, “There must be precision and power in your prayers. The war has arrived and those awake are on the front lines now and you will never be able to get away or withdraw from that line.” …Then He said, “This absolute precision is required in your prayers.”  The Lord just said, “It's not going to stop. It's going to get worse and worse and worse.” We've got to continue to stand and hold our ground and occupy until He comes.) (Think how bad it could get if we don't exercise authority over the demons.) After saying this, He took a defensive position and quickly put an arrow into the bow and shot straight up in the air and just kept looking in that direction. He wasn't looking around at the crowd or the people near the Churches. He just shot it straight up in the air and that arrow never came back down. I found myself kind of watching and waiting for it to come back down but it never did. (The warfare of Jesus in His people who have born fruit is against the principalities and powers in the second heaven and beyond that, in the third heaven their prayers go to the throne.) He kept looking into the air where He shot it and He never looked back at me. (The Bible says that His Word will not return void. I promise you our prayers will not either. … Our eyes need to be on Him and never leaving that front line; never being distracted by the noise and the violence.  (We have to do more than pray to God. We have to exercise authority for Him. All authority in Heaven and on earth was given to Jesus. Then He delegated that authority to us. What we bind on earth is bound in heaven and what we loose on earth is loosed in Heaven. Jesus said, “As the Father sent me, so send I you.” I repeat, Luk. 10:19   Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. Notice: We have been given authority over ALL the power of the enemy. We have authority to bind the enemy's power. The disciples, when they were delegated authority did not go back and ask Jesus to do what they were told to do. Try this with your earthly boss and see if you don't get fired.  The disciples commanded healing and demons and the curse and so on. They didn't go and ask Jesus to do this. So it is with us. There is a time to pray and a time to act as Jesus demonstrated. The one man on top of the building had more authority than the whole church full of people and so it should be with Jesus in us. Our good confession is in Gal 2:20  I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ liveth in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me. God's plan was always for Jesus to be Emanuel, "God with us". Jesus in His corporate Body would do the same thing He did in His first Body. And He will do it in all those who believe.) He shot that arrow straight up into heaven and, looking up, He was demonstrating to us how we do warfare. We keep our eyes on Him. Our hands and our fingers have been prepared for battle and through this spiritual war, God is working. (Notice the authority of those who believe God's Word in this text. Psa. 18:31-40  For who is God, save Jehovah? And who is a rock, besides our God, 32 The God that girdeth me with strength, And maketh my way perfect? 33 He maketh my feet like hinds feet : And setteth me upon my high places. 34 He teacheth my hands to war; So that mine arms do bend a bow of brass. 35 Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation; And thy right hand hath holden me up, And thy gentleness hath made me great. 36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, And my feet have not slipped. 37 I will pursue mine enemies, and overtake them; Neither will I turn again till they are consumed. 38 I will smite them through, so that they shall not be able to rise: They shall fall under my feet. 39 For thou hast girded me with strength unto the battle: Thou hast subdued under me those that rose up against me. 40 Thou hast also made mine enemies turn their backs unto me, That I might cut off them that hate me.) God's calling the Church to pray like it's never prayed before: With passion, courage, intensity,  fire, fervor, urgency, and with precision. … He said, “Remember to be precise, as it matters more than ever now.”…Our prayers will not return void. In 2 Ki 6:15-17 it says, When the servant of the man of God rose early in the morning and went out, behold an army with horses and chariots was all around the city and the servant said, “alas my master, what shall we do?” and he said, “do not be afraid for those who are with us are more than those who are with them” and then Elisha prayed and said, “O Lord please open his eyes that he may see. So the Lord opened the eyes of the young man and he saw and behold the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around. …       Crisis! America at War! Handmaid of the Most High - 4/24/23 (David's notes in red) Matthew 24:6 (KJV) 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. While talking on the telephone on 4/21/23, I had a flash vision.  I saw a newspaper and the front page was captioned with two different captions (This represents two factions or Civil War) …  It was not like a typical [type] set-up with one headline across the top half.  Instead, the newspaper was divided in half because each part was so critical. On left side it said “Crisis“.  The other caption began in the center and said “America at War“. I was aware that America had been attacked and was now fighting the war on American soil. This confirms many of my early posts on this site …  The Lord has given us plenty of warning so we must make ourselves spiritually ready for what will follow.     The Battle Rages Julie Daughter of the King - April 13, 2023 (This message was in response to me asking Yahushua why His remnant is still under such attack by evil forces. (This includes myself almost nightly). I was praying for more understanding as to why it is so relentless. These are the words He spoke to me after communion [with Him] on April 13, 2023.)  “Oh My child, peace, be still. Be still and know that I AM is here and with you. I realize how difficult it is for you to understand the reasons behind all this evil, and why I am allowing it to continue. The battle is raging, yes. It is an epic battle unlike any other in your history. There has never been such a frenzy by satan and his dark kingdom as what is being experienced now. (The prince of the power of the air is fighting as the dragon in Rev. 12, to keep from being cast down to the earth.) Think of it this way. If you were given an assignment that meant life or death, and a period of time to complete it, and the deadline was closing in, would you not stop everything else as the deadline was rapidly approaching, even at the door? Would not satan do the same, knowing the end is here, putting all his resources into completing what he believes he must do, to kill and destroy as many souls as possible, as he also knows that I am here now in My people and about to be fully manifested through them. He knows the time for My great move is upon you and he is desperate to destroy as many souls as possible before that moment.  You, as My remnant army, however, cannot be harmed. I walk at your right side with you, and the battle is Mine, not yours. I go before you, and I am your Rear Guard. I have insulated you with My presence, and you are under My anointing, and although you walk through the darkest part of the storm yet, thousands are come against you and you will not be touched.  Remember your positions in My Kingdom. As heirs to My Throne, you are already seated in Heavenly places with Me. You are My untouchable, unstoppable ones, the ones I have chosen from before time to be here now because of your obedience and faith in Me. Each time the enemy comes against you, you have an opportunity to increase in your faith and walk in the power and authority you have been given from Me. Do not forget who you are and why you have come. You are here to stand, when all you can do is stand, and hold the line, anchoring My love here until the moment I fully manifest through all of you.  Having been chosen as heirs, My kings and My priests to rule and reign here is a weighty matter indeed, yes, a very serious position to hold. But, I knew of your obedience and allegiance to Me and sent you knowing I would have the victory for you and that you would learn to master what I have taught you in order to walk out your assignments here. So, each time you encounter evil, see it as an opportunity to apply what you have learned, to over-come, knowing you could and will not ever lose.  I give you My strength to walk this out, and My peace, a peace that cannot be found outside of Me, a peace that will allow you to see what I am speaking about from My perspective. It is then that as you respond, you will not be wearied by all the attacks, but rather stand up in your position and wield My sword of the Spirit, My Word, as you work together to hold the line here in this realm, consistently and with boldness and courage, as I have told you to not fear or be afraid of anything the enemy can send your way.   I am here My army, as the Commander and Captain of the Hosts. Be still and know that I Am has you in the palm of My hand.” YAHUSHUA     God Uses the DS Beast to Bring Down Factious and Apostates Morning Verses Over the Past Two Weeks by Faith at Random  Psa 9:3 When mine enemies turn back, They stumble and perish at thy presence. 4 For thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou sittest

Resurrection of Jesus and His Church (Audio) David Eells - 4/9/23 Everything We Have Belongs to the Lord  Missy Pollock - 12/24/22 This morning for the prayer meeting I asked the Lord, “What is the number one thing you want to tell us?” Then I received by faith at random; 1 Ch 29:5 …. Who then offereth willingly to consecrate himself this day unto Jehovah? (In context 1-28) [1] And David the king said unto all the assembly, Solomon my son, whom alone God hath chosen, is yet young and tender, and the work is great; for the palace is not for man, but for Jehovah God. [2] Now I have prepared with all my might for the house of my God the gold for the things of gold, and the silver for the things of silver, and the brass for the things of brass, the iron for the things of iron, and wood for the things of wood; onyx stones, and stones to be set, stones for inlaid work, and of divers colors, and all manner of precious stones, and marble stones in abundance. (In this parable David had fought the wars to win peace for the kingdom and prepared richly for the building of the temple, just as Sheshbazzar received from the king riches to rebuild the temple. It was then that his name was changed to Zerubbabel which represents the resurrected Man-child. This was just as Solomon, the prince of peace, the son of David, represents the resurrected Man-child. This text was a word from the Lord that we are there.) [3] Moreover also, because I have set my affection on the house of my God, seeing that I have a treasure of mine own of gold and silver, I give it unto the house of my God, over and above all that I have prepared for the holy house, … Who then offereth willingly to consecrate himself this day unto Jehovah? [6] Then the princes of the fathers' houses, and the princes of the tribes of Israel, and the captains of thousands and of hundreds, with the rulers over the king's work, offered willingly; [7] and they gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand darics, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of brass eighteen thousand talents, and of iron a hundred thousand talents. (We have personally seen at this time people of the King's house giving sacrificially to the building of the temple which is the people of God coming into the Kingdom. Our many missionaries are seeing many thousands of people coming into the Kingdom because of these gifts. Many of these people would be killed for turning to Christianity and some have.) … [9] Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with a perfect heart they offered willingly to Jehovah: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy. … [14] But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee. [15] For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathers were: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no abiding. [16] O Jehovah our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee a house for thy holy name cometh of thy hand and is all thine own. [17] I know also, my God, that thou triest the heart, and hast pleasure in uprightness. As for me, in the uprightness of my heart I have willingly offered all these things: and now have I seen with joy thy people, that are present here, offer willingly unto thee. …  [19] and give unto Solomon my son a perfect heart, to keep thy commandments, thy testimonies, and thy statutes, and to do all these things, and to build the palace, for which I have made provision. … [21] And they sacrificed sacrifices unto Jehovah, and offered burnt-offerings unto Jehovah, on the morrow after that day, even a thousand bullocks, a thousand rams, and a thousand lambs, with their drink-offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel, [22] and did eat and drink before Jehovah on that day with great gladness. And they made Solomon the son of David king the second time, and anointed him unto Jehovah to be prince, and Zadok to be priest.  [23] Then Solomon sat on the throne of Jehovah as king instead of David his father and prospered; and all Israel obeyed him. [24] And all the princes, and the mighty men, and all the sons likewise of king David, submitted themselves unto Solomon the king. [25] And Jehovah magnified Solomon exceedingly in the sight of all Israel, and bestowed upon him such royal majesty as had not been on any king before him in Israel. [26] Now David the son of Jesse reigned over all Israel. …[28] And he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honor: and Solomon his son reigned in his stead. Missy said, “The Lord spoke to Debbie Fenske this word as I was reading these verses in 1Ch. Chapter 29, ‘My children, you must lay down your lives. Do you understand what this means? Be ready. Be willing to give up all. All that is dear to you. Be ready. Fear not this call I have upon your life.'”  I sensed the Lord wanted me to share this and after a bit when I was going to worship the Lord, I put it on shuffle and BEAUTY OF HOLINESScame on and I knew immediately it went with the verses and that I was supposed to share this! Another song that came up was TAKE MY LIFE.  Lose Your Life to Save it! Debbie Fenske - 12/24/22 I believe that today more than ever, Jesus is telling us, "Save your life." It's what He spoke to me a few weeks ago. There were two other scriptures that were shared in our morning Zoom meeting regarding giving up our lives by dying to self. Don L. had Luke 9:23-27 And He was saying to them all, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me. 24 "For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake, will save it. 25 "For what is a man profited if he gains the whole world and loses his soul? 26 "For whoever is ashamed of Me and of my Words, of him will the the Son of Man be ashamed. Judy F. shared, Matthew 12:46-49 While He was speaking to the crowd, behold, His mother and brothers were standing outside seeking to speak to Him. 47 Someone said to Him, “Your Mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You.” 48 But Jesus answered the one who was telling Him, and said, “Who is My mother and My brothers?” 49 And stretching out His hand toward his disciples, He said, "Behold My mother and My brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of My Father who is in heaven, is My brother and sister and mother. " Thank You, Father, for your continued warning to us to obey You in giving up our lives, and to let go of anything that comes between our relationship with You. Lord, May we each hear You, and receive from you as You tell us what You want us to do. And help us to hate our lives, and be wholly devoted to you, first and foremost. Thank you for your mercy towards us, Father. In Jesus name. Pray for God to Raise Up the Man-Child!   Pray for the Coming of Jesus in the Man-child Vanessa Weeks - 4/3/23 (David's notes in red) In a dream, I was in the UBM house with some others. The house was beautiful and clear of clutter. The floors were all polished and shining. There was a lot of room because everything we needed was against the walls. (This means all we need will be within our walls including sanctification.) This was also a multi-story house, and I knew we were working on doing something with the teachings, but it was different than it is now. (Getting the Word out by many methods including supernaturally as the angels have told us.) Matthew (meaning Gift of God) and I were standing in a small room with white walls (meaning sanctification), when David came in through the door. (I believe David represents the Man-Child reformers.) The three of us were standing together, with David in the middle. David said he felt weak. 2Co 12:10 Wherefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.) (Weakness precedes death to self and this precedes the resurrection life of Jesus.) And then David started to fall, so Matthew and I helped lay him down on the rug. Matthew lowered David's feet and I lowered his head onto the rug. Matthew went to get help, and I thought David was dying or was already dead and thought to myself, "This can't be happening.” (Death must come before resurrection power.) I knelt by David, took his hand, and prayed something like, "Lord let David live.” (The Lord wants us to pray this now. Lord bring your resurrection life in the Man-child David's.)  I remember praying fervently, "Lord, there is much you promised David. (I asked the Lord for a word about a promise to David and received by faith at random “feet” in Rom 10:15 and how shall they preach, except they be sent? even as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that bring glad tidings of good things!) (The gospel will go out in a much stronger way like it came out of Jesus.). I also prayed, "Lord there is much you said you would do through him, and You are not a liar."  When I said, "Lord, you are not a liar," David became conscious, leaned on his left side, and put his right hand around me and agreed with my prayer and said, "Yes, Amen." Then he jumped up and was gone and I thought he went to the next room to show the nurses dressed in white, that he was alive and well. (Resurrection life is Solomon, the prince of peace, Jesus Christ, in the Man-child. He will be shown to be superior to those who seek to heal in the natural.) Then at least a day went by, and I did not know where David was. I was sitting on a metal bench outside, in a court yard of a college campus. (The Man-child went to the school of higher education as in Gabe's dream, where he saw the Man-child go to college.) Everything seemed new, as I looked to my left, and saw a lady with long blond hair, who knew David and was a believer. She was standing against a gray buildingand holding some books. (I think the lady represents believers who are submitted to the light of Christ and dying to self but lack understanding.) (Gray represents not white and not black. It is time to go on to white. She represents those who come to get our books to grow in the Lord. Many immature or new believers in the Middle East and Africa are reading our books.) I wanted to tell her what happened to David, and how God raised him up. I knew she would be happy as I was. Just then, a man dressed in a black robe (Judges of others) with yellow religious symbols (Feigning to be Christian) and wearing a black hat (Representing being submitted to darkness), walked past and in-between us very quickly. (The faction has tried to separate us from those who need our teachings, but the Man-child David's will scatter them as the Edomites.) So, then I went to her and joyfully told her about God raising David up. (The wicked will not be able to stop those who want truth from finding their reformation through the Man-child David's.) Then some of us from UBM were standing in a small room and I saw David. He looked like a different man, and about Matthew's age, but I recognized him. (He is about the age of Jesus when He started His ministry.) I told him he looked better now, and he laughed. (This will be the beginning of the restoration from the curse in Joe 2:23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in Jehovah your God; for he giveth you the former rain in just measure, and he causeth to come down for you the rain, the former rain and the latter rain, in the first month. 24 And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil. 25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmer-worm, my great army which I sent among you. (These represent the curse on God's crop.)  Act 3:21 (Jesus) whom the heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all (Things is not numeric), whereof God spake by the mouth of his holy prophets that have been from of old. After I woke up, I asked the Lord for a word in line with this dream and received by faith at random Acts 2:36 on "him both Lord and Christ". (In context vs. 29-36). Act 2:29 Brethren, I may say unto you freely of the patriarch David, that he both died and was buried, and his tomb is with us unto this day. (The death of the Man-child Davids will bring many more like him. Joh. 12:24-25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat fall into the earth and die, it abideth by itself alone; but if it dies, it beareth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life loseth it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.)  30 Being therefore a prophet and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins he would set one upon his throne; (David sowed a seed that brought forth many like him to dominion over the enemy. This represents the Man-child caught up to the throne in Rev 12:4 And his tail draweth the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon standeth before the woman that is about to be delivered, that when she is delivered, he may devour her child. 5 And she was delivered of a son, a man child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and unto his throne.This throne represents dominion over powers of darkness, the curse, and the people of God.)  31 he foreseeing this spake of the resurrection of the Christ, that neither was he left unto Hades, nor did his flesh see corruption. (The resurrection of Christ in us will be seen in the Man-child David's and then in many disciples.) 32 This Jesus did God raise up, whereof we all are witnesses. (Jesus came in the body of a son of David. This will be repeated in our day on a corporate body scale.)  33 Being therefore by the right hand of God exalted and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, he hath poured forth this, which ye see and hear. (This was the former rain but represents the far greater latter rain in a much larger body. Hos 6:1-3 shows that Jesus "will come to us as the latter rain” and on the morning of the third thousand-year day from him, where we are now. Hos 6:1-3 Come and let us return unto Jehovah; for he hath torn, and he will heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. 2 After two days will he revive us: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live before him. 3 And let us know, let us follow on to know Jehovah: his going forth is sure as the morning; and he will come unto us as the rain, as the latter rain that watereth the earth.) 34 For David ascended not into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, (Jesus said in Rev 3:21 He that overcometh, I will give to him to sit down with me in my throne, as I also overcame, and sat down with my Father in his throne.  This is the throne of dominion authority.) 35 Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet. (Jesus in the Man-child and in all of us will bring dominion over our enemies. Rev 2:26 And he that overcometh, and he that keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give authority over the nations.) 36 Let all the house of Israel therefore know assuredly, that God hath made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom ye crucified. (This foreshadows Jesus manifested in the Man-child reformer body through death and resurrection. Php 3:10-15: that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed unto his death; 11 if by any means I may attain unto the resurrection from the dead. 12 Not that I have already obtained or am already made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which also I was laid hold on by Christ Jesus. (Notice, that we are to lay hold of resurrection life which is being called perfect.) 13 Brethren, I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing I do, forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before. (This is why you must see Jesus in the mirror now.) 14 I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let us therefore, as many as are perfect, be thus minded: and if in anything ye are otherwise minded, this also shall God reveal unto you: (He will show you how to walk this life of faith.) The most vivid part of this dream was when I prayed for David, and I think it is what the Lord is emphasizing. (Amen! We have been content to wait for God's perfect timing, but now He is saying to pray the Man-child ministry in. So, we say, “Come Lord Jesus!!”) We have been shown a parallel in dreams that God has drawn between Trump/Cyrus and the David/Man-child reformers. What one is in the natural, the other is in the Spirit.Below is a prophesy by Ken Dewey. I believe the Indictment of Trump represents a kind of trial or death that Jesus went through.   If You Think They are Winning - Stop it April 5, 2023 Prophet Ken Dewey (David's notes in red) I heard this today as the enemy is indicting Trump…. “Do not fear the proceedings and the language and the accusations for they are like the giant who came out daily to challenge The Army of Israel…. It was just talk, he talked, so do not listen to his talk, for he is not representing Me, but he is the enemy. (These represent the spiritual giants who are the enemies of God's people.) I sent David — a small boy — to kill him. I AM able to kill the giant, and to put an end to the talk. I AM more than them. Do not think that I AM not working through these indictments and charges, for I AM right there in the midst of them, and I AM not even worried. I AM that I AM. Look up. See Me, and know, I have not stepped back or out of this time, I have not and will not, because I AM doing something in America. Remember, David killed the giant! I will have my way in this Nation, and none can stop Me, for this Nation is mine, I have raised this Nation up to accomplish My Plans. I will not fail in accomplishing all My Plans in this Nation. It is as a melting pot and it will melt and separate unto me My People from the evil people, it will separate the good from the bad, it will purify and cleanse, for it is “very hot”. None can dictate what will come out of the melting pot. I will have My Way in and through it. Turn the words of the enemy into the fire, for I will try them before all, and the world looking on will see, the enemy. To all My People, let me remind you that I have given you the power to tread on the enemy. I have given you Power and Authority so you should speak your Authority over all this event, demanding that the enemy fails. I AM in you, and you are My People. Stand up My People and assume your rightful place in this day. Speak in Authority over the enemy and take charge. I AM your God. Do not forget that and for sure do not ever think that I have forsaken you. I have not, nor will I ever. The enemy will not prevail over my plans for this nation. I AM.” Isaac's dream below speaks of the resurrection of the Man-child Reformers after the completion of death to self.   Christ Triumphs in Resurrection Isaac Payne - 3/26/23 (David's notes in red) In this dream I was in the spirit witnessing a field that did not have a lot of grass. It was a mixture of dirt and grass. As I stood gazing at the field, I noticed a casket in the center. The casket was the focal point and there was no grass growing around the casket. (No grass means no flesh left.) (The grass represents the flesh according to 1Pe. 1:24 For, All flesh is as grass, And all the glory thereof as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower falleth. The dirt is what man's flesh is made from.) As I continued to stare at the casket, I realized it was Jesus that was in this casket. Instantly, it dawned on me that I was witnessing Jesus's resurrection after His death and burial in a modern-day burial procedure. As I was watching intently, suddenly, a brilliant light began to form and illuminate from inside the casket. Then the casket could not contain the brilliant illumination of light and it was overtaken by this orb of pure white light. (Joh. 1:1-5 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 through him; and without him was not anything made that hath been made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in the darkness; and the darkness apprehended it not.) This light was outstanding and began to reverberate as if it were a heart beat, pulsating. I knew this brilliant orb was Jesus. (Jesus is the heart of God manifested in flesh.) (I don't feel my vocabulary can describe the brilliant white light. However, If you compared the color white to His brilliant white, the color white would look dingy and tinted. Also, imagine the size and color of the sun reduced to a brilliant white, but having the same power of the sun and you tried to contain it all in a box. It would be an unstoppable and uncontainable force, obliterating all darkness. It was as if it bleached out all colors in the spectrum, disposing of any darkness that forms within any individual color to create the aspects of that color, thus producing the absence of color into a brilliant white. This is what I saw.)  While witnessing Jesus as the reverberating brilliant white orb, suddenly as a fire ball, He shot downward into the earth. As I looked at the aftermath of this powerful phenomenon, I saw there was a hole in the shape of a perfect circle, going from the surface of the earth all the way to the center of the earth. The hole was formed almost instantaneously, and all the layers of the earth completely disintegrated with a fervent heat, going down to His destination which was in the center. Still witnessing the aftermath, the edges of the circular hole was like molten lava due to the intensity of the heat. (Eph. 4:8-10 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive, And gave gifts unto men. 9 (Now this, He ascended, what is it but that he also descended into the lower parts of the earth? 10 He that descended is the same also that ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things. What happened here in the natural represents something that has happened and is going to happen again. Because of sin demons have been given authority on earth as they have in hell. Many have experienced a living hell, but Jesus came, and is coming, to set the captives free. Isa. 61:1-4 The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; 2 to proclaim the year of Jehovah's favor, 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 a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified. 4 And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations.) It then dawned on me, the Stronger has gone to spoil the goods of the strong man and set the captives free. Then I woke up. (Mat. 12 :28-30 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then is the kingdom of God come upon you. Or how can one enter into the house of the strong [man], and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong [man]? and then he will spoil his house. He that is not with me is against me, and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.  Christ conquered so we can conquer All of our promised land! Heb. 2:14-16 Since then the children are sharers in flesh and blood, he also himself in like manner partook of the same; that through death he might bring to nought him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. For verily not to angels doth he give help, but he giveth help to the seed of Abraham.  Psa. 16:9-10 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; My flesh also shall dwell in safety. For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol; Neither wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption. And Joh. 8:36 If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. (I was reading "Delivered from Dark Powers" by David Eells and came across these pages and it really spoke to me about this dream. Here is an excerpt from Delivered from Dark Powers pages 10-12:) “Jesus made us able to be partakers in whatever we need. He made us able to plunder the devil's kingdom, and the devil's kingdom is wherever the devil rules or his curse reigns. Wherever the devil has ability, we have the ability to take it away from him. The devil has no power.  Do you remember Joshua and Caleb were seeking to bring the children of Israel into the Promise Land? After spying out the land, these two said that their enemies defense was removed from over them. (Num 14:9) Only rebel not against the lord, neither fear ye the people of the land; for they are bread for us: their defense is removed from over them, and the Lord is with us: fear them not. All that the other ten spies could see were the giants, but Joshua and Caleb saw that the enemy had no armor. That's the way we must see the enemies of God's Kingdom.  It makes no difference whether those enemies are lusts of the flesh, works of darkness, demons, the devil, or whatever. Their defense is removed from over them. They have no power against the Word of God. Jesus was the "Stronger" Who came and took away their whole armor. (Luke 11:22) Those "spoils" of the devil's kingdom are all the places where he has taken advantage of your life or taken authority over the things or circumstances that God has put in your hands. All these add up to "spoils."  When Jesus went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil (Acts 10:38), He was spoiling the devil's kingdom. If you are being oppressed of the devil, Jesus destroyed this oppression. He broke this power everywhere He went. Whether it was hunger, sickness, demonic possession, or mental need, it didn't make any difference; Jesus broke the oppression, and He told us to do the same thing because (Mat. 12:30) He that is not with me is against me, and he that gathereth not with me scattereth.  The devil's power over God's people rests in the fact that God's people don't know that his power has already been broken, and they don't know the authority that has been given to them. Although the Word speaks it plainly, it still has to be a revelation that you pick up and do something with. The Bible says of Jesus that, (Col. 2:15) Having despoiled the principalities and the powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.  "Triumphing" is celebrating the victory that has already been won. Jesus triumphed over the devil, and He rubbed the devil's nose in what He had accomplished on the Cross. The victory was at the cross; what came after the Cross was the triumph. (2 Co. 2:14) But thanks be unto God, who always leadeth us in triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest through us the savor of his knowledge in every place.  We need to simply celebrate His victory. What we need to do is repeat what the Word says about our circumstances or situation, and we do that by stating what the Word says about our authority and righteousness. All we must do is believe that. The devil wants us to look at ourselves and our failures and the curse around us, but we just need to remember that we have authority over the curse.  We've been crucified with Christ and we're not alive anymore; now it's Christ Who lives in us. (Gal. 2:20) I have been crucified with Christ; and it no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me. When we remember what the Word of God says about us and about our circumstances, we can celebrate.  [Father, this seems too easy, but help me to start right now to believe that the devil is crippled. As I read Your Word, I see the devil has been defeated. Help me to believe when my eyes have seen different results. Forgive my unbelief. As I read on, please put in my heart the victory You are bringing to my life and lives of my loved ones. Thank You for helping me to believe that I've received victory over every demon. The Editor]”   The True Church Will Be Saved From Babylon David Eells - 3/17/23 I asked the Lord what to share and my Bible fell open to this and it is so encouraging concerning God's wayward sheep. Jer 30:1-24 The word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying, 2 Thus speaketh Jehovah, the God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book. 3 For, lo, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will turn again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith Jehovah; and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it.  (This is the release of the captives of Babylon to return to their land and rebuild their kingdom as Cyrus did and Trump is doing.) Jer 29:20 Hear ye therefore the word of Jehovah, all ye of the captivity, whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon. 4 And these are the words that Jehovah spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah. 5 For thus saith Jehovah: We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. 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?  In a time of the fear of war between Babylon DS and the Alliance of Media Persia, the Man-child ministry will be in labor with Christ in them the hope of Glory and will come out of the “woman in travail” of Rev.12. 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. (Jacob or Israel is a type of the Church who is now in bondage to the DS Dragon's Babylonish religions and factions, but they will be saved.) 8 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith Jehovah of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds; and strangers shall no more make him their bondman; 9 but they shall serve Jehovah their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up unto them.  This is an exciting Word for the captives.  As it was in Jesus' time the Man-child David will, through truth and anointing, break the yoke of Babylonish religion and its strange leadership off the elect of God. This apostate leadership is a stranger to the Kingdom and is neither led of the Spirit nor trained of God. These false “Christian” religions of men are as they were in Jesus' day and don't reflect discipleship to Christ in the least. 10 Therefore fear thou not, O Jacob my servant, saith Jehovah; neither be dismayed, O Israel: for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid.11 For I am with thee, saith Jehovah, to save thee: for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have scattered thee, but I will not make a full end of thee; but I will correct thee in measure and will in no wise leave thee unpunished.  Babylon DS Nazi Satanists have taken over the nations, through “Operation Paper Clip” in the US, and through stealing the vote, blackmail, murder, bribes, lusts, vaccines, etc, in the nations. They are being beaten now by the Alliance but still are killing many and poisoning the land and bodies of the peoples. Their criminal banks are failing, paper dollars worthless, to make room for the gold backed Quantum Financial System and a new One World Order Empire. 12 For thus saith Jehovah, Thy hurt is incurable, and thy wound grievous. 13 There is none to plead thy cause, that thou mayest be bound up: thou hast no healing medicines. (One look at the apostate churches from a renewed mind shows they have been hopeless since their inception born from the Mother harlot. They have a form of godliness but deny the power to live it, and we can certainly see that their medicines don't heal them.) 14 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 greatness of thine iniquity, because thy sins were increased. (The younger generation is departing from mom and dads dead church and look for something with life. The revivals out there are proving this. The world no longer respects the mother of harlots nor the daughter harlots. These churches have fallen under many a curse. Satan and his demons take full advantage of them for they have no power or wisdom from God to defend themselves. Their sins are multiplied, for sin is a transgression of the Word, which they ignore.) 15 Why criest thou for thy hurt? thy pain is incurable (because all their cures are man-made. The Rockefeller hospital protocols ignore the test results of these drugs and that is because they are depopulationists.): for the greatness of thine iniquity, because thy sins were increased, I have done these things unto thee.(God has brought this judgment because sin abounds in the daughter harlots.)  (By God's grace He is intent on saving His elect among them and judging their enemies so this can be done. The college kids from backslidden denominations are even casting out demons in these revivals !!) 16 Therefore all they that devour thee shall be devoured; and all thine adversaries, every one of them, shall go into captivity; and they that despoil thee shall be a spoil, and all that prey upon thee will I give for a prey.  17 For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith Jehovah; because they have called thee an outcast, saying, It is Zion, whom no man seeketh after. (The apostate leadership has failed to cause any manifestations of Christlikeness or His ministry to be in their churches because they have forgotten the Lord and His word.)    18 Thus saith Jehovah: Behold, I will turn again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have compassion on his dwelling-places; and the city shall be builded upon its own hill, and the palace shall be inhabited after its own manner. (This is the rebuilding of the Kingdom by the true Zion leadership.) Isa 1:26 and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called The city of righteousness, a faithful town.) (From this restored end time leadership of the Man-child and Bride revival will come to the apostates who are elect.) 19 And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.(Glorifying them is to manifest “Christ in them the hope of glory.”)  2Co 3:18 But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord the Spirit.  2Co 4:6 Seeing it is God, that said, Light shall shine out of darkness, who shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. (And this glory will come while we are in our mortal bodies not as the dead churches have said in the hereafter.)  2Co 4:10-11 always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body. 11 For we who live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh. (These are the true believers who have signs following as Jesus said.) (In 1 Co 7 Paul said the children are sanctified in the believing parents or they will be unclean so we see this:) 20 Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all that oppress them.  (God will defend the true Church from invaders as he removed the factious from among us, and the liars became as Ananias and Sapphira who died for this sin.)  21 And their prince shall be of themselves, and their ruler shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is he that hath had boldness to approach unto me? saith Jehovah. (This “prince” speaks of the David Man-child reformers, the new leadership.) 2Sa 7:8 Now therefore thus shalt thou say unto my servant David, Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, I took thee from the sheepcote, from following the sheep, that thou shouldest be prince over my people, over Israel.  Eze 34:24 And I, Jehovah, will be their God, and my servant David prince among them; I, Jehovah, have spoken it.) (And through the reformers the people will become His.) 22 And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God. (And as David defended the people, he judged the Edomites who constantly attacked their chosen brothers.) 23 Behold, the tempest of Jehovah, even his wrath, is gone forth, a sweeping tempest: it shall burst upon the head of the wicked. 24 The fierce anger of Jehovah shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall understand it. (The Lord in the David's will defend Zion, the Bride, and judge the traitors of Edom.)  Isa 62:11 Behold, Jehovah hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. …  63:1-4 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah (Edom's sheepfold)? this that is glorious in his apparel, marching in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. 2 Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winevat? 3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the peoples there was no man with me (A judgment from God but not by God's army. We have seen this in our dreams.): yea, I trod them in mine anger, and trampled them in my wrath; and their lifeblood is sprinkled upon my garments, and I have stained all my raiment. 4 For the day of vengeance was in my heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.(God will redeem His elect from the hands of their enemies.) Jer 31:1-40 At that time, saith Jehovah, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people. (Joh 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice: and they shall become one flock, one shepherd.)    2 Thus saith Jehovah, The people that were left of the sword found favor in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest. (Those who do not die by the sword, famine, and pestilence of Babylon will receive grace in the wilderness tribulation where they will see provision out of heaven and victory over enemies as the Israelites did.) 3 Jehovah appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee. 4 Again will I build thee, and thou shalt be built, O virgin of Israel: again, shalt thou be adorned with thy tabrets, and shalt go forth in the dances of them that make merry. (The Joy of the Lord will be on His people for the knowledge of the Lord through His reformers will give them faith and peace. Isa 61:1-3 The Spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me; because Jehovah hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; 2 to proclaim the year of Jehovah's favor, 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 a garland for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of Jehovah, that he may be glorified.) 5 Again shalt thou plant vineyards upon the mountains of Samaria(Representing raiseing fruit among those who are not true Jews by nature.); the planters shall plant, and shall enjoy the fruit thereof. 6 For there shall be a day, that the watchmen upon the hills of Ephraim shall cry, Arise ye, and let us go up to Zion unto Jehovah our God. (Ephraim was said by Jacob to become in the Hebrew “the fullness of nations” in Gen 48:19. Truly all the nations of God's people will submit to Zion, the Brides, leadership.) 7 For thus saith Jehovah, Sing with gladness for Jacob, and shout for the chief of the nations(Here it is again): publish ye, praise ye, and say, O Jehovah, save thy people, the remnant of Israel.(Israel has always been seen as a type of the Church, whose remnant is one of four in the type of the sower.)   (The nations of people will come to worldwide Zion, the leadership of Gods true Church.) 8 Behold, I will bring them from the north country, and gather them from the uttermost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the lame, the woman with child and her that travaileth with child together: a great company shall they return hither. 9 They shall come with weeping; and with supplications will I lead them: I will cause them to walk by rivers of waters, in a straight way wherein they shall not stumble; for I am a father to Israel (This is the “Israel of God”, the circumcised in heart rather than flesh. Rom 2:28 For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh: 29 but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.  and Ephraim is my first-born.(Ephraim was Joseph's second born son who received the anointing of the firstborn of God. The Church of all nations was the second born, who received the Holy Spirit anointing of God, to be His first born. The Church is born of Jesus Christ the last Adam of the new creation man.)  10 Hear the word of Jehovah, O ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off; and say, He that scattered Israel (Into the captivity of the nations like the Church) will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock. 11 For Jehovah hath ransomed Jacob and redeemed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.(Jacob/Israel, a type of the Church, will be redeemed from Babylon DS and Edom DS factions.) 12 And they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow unto the goodness of Jehovah, to the grain, and to the new wine, and to the oil, and to the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all. (In Joel 2 the beast that came against Zion was smitten and these same blessings were given to Zion as the revival that came as the Latter Rain.Joe 2:18-19,23,  18 Then was Jehovah jealous for his land and had pity on his people. 19 And Jehovah answered and said unto his people, Behold, I will send you grain, and new wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith; and I will no more make you a reproach among the nations… 23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in Jehovah your God; for he giveth you the former rain in just measure, and he causeth to come down for you the rain, the former rain and the latter rain, in the first month.) (And the revival is plainly seen in the next verses.) 13 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, and the young men and the old together; for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow. 14 And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith Jehovah.  15 Thus saith Jehovah: A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation, and bitter weeping, Rachel weeping for her children; she refuseth to be comforted for her children, because they are not.  (This was spoken in the NT when Herod, an Edomite, killed the brethren of the Man-child Jesus, but He escaped. So, it will be in the end times, the Edomites are killing the brethren of the Man-child, but He has escaped the dragon of Revelation 12.) 16 Thus saith Jehovah: Refrain thy voice from weeping, and thine eyes from tears; for thy work shall be rewarded, saith Jehovah; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.  (So, we see here they were considered by God as dead when they were in captivity but then they came back to life when returning to their promised land, i.e., standing on the promises. This reminds me of Isaac's dream above of Jesus going to set the captives free, just as the Man-child will set the captives free as a repeat of history.)  17 And there is hope for thy latter end, saith Jehovah; and thy children shall come again to their own border. (This represents Resurrection life to those who returned to God.)  18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus, Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a calf unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art Jehovah my God. (It is God who grants this turning called repentance.) 19 Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.(This humbling will all promote spiritual maturity.) 20 Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a darling child? for as often as I speak against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore, my heart yearneth for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith Jehovah. (Ephraim was called, “the fullness of nations”. This Church of all nations will be granted repentance. Church means the “called out ones.”) 21 Set thee up waymarks, make thee guide-posts; set thy heart toward the highway, even the way by which thou wentest (Guideposts of the Word to stay on the narrow road they departed from.): turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these thy cities. 22 How long wilt thou go hither and thither, O thou backsliding daughter? for Jehovah hath created a new thing in the earth: A woman shall encompass a man. (Jesus is at the center of the Woman, His Church. He is coming again as a reformer body to His people through His Word and Spirit. “He will come to us as the rain as the Latter Rain.”) 23 Thus saith Jehovah of hosts, the God of Israel, Yet again shall they use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity: Jehovah bless thee, O habitation of righteousness, O mountain of holiness. (They return to their example, Zion, the mountain of holiness.)  24 And Judah and all the cities thereof shall dwell therein together, the husbandmen, and they that go about with flocks. 25 For I have satiated the weary soul and every sorrowful soul have I replenished. (This represents the great restoration of Joel 2 through the Latter Rain.) 26 Upon this I awaked and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me. 27 Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast. (Meaning the seed of man and beast will be multiplied at this new beginning. The seed of beasts represents their livelihood and economy.)  28 And it shall come to pass that, like as I have watched over them to pluck up and to break down and to overthrow and to destroy and to afflict, so will I watch over them to build and to plant, saith Jehovah.  29 In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge. (I.e., The curse of the fathers will be passed on to the children, but then we see this curse broken.) 30 But everyone shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the sour grapes, histeeth shall be set on edge.  31 Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah: 32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt (I.e. the Law); which my covenant they brake, although I was a husband unto them, saith Jehovah. 33 But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith Jehovah: I will put my law in their inward parts, and in their heart will I write it; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.  (Heb 13:20-21 20 Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, even our Lord Jesus, 21 make you perfect in every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.  Php 2:13 for it is God who worketh in you both to will and to work, for his good pleasure. (This is the real good news!) 34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know Jehovah; for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith Jehovah: for I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin will I remember no more. (We are justified by faith!)  35 Thus saith Jehovah, who giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirreth up the sea, so that the waves thereof roar; Jehovah of hosts is his name: 36 If these ordinances depart from before me, saith Jehovah, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever. (This is God's guarantee for the future of His elect or chosen from among the nations.) 37 Thus saith Jehovah: If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, then will I also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith Jehovah.  38 Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that the city shall be built to Jehovah from the tower of Hananel unto the gate of the corner. 39 And the measuring line shall go out further straight onward unto the hill Gareb and shall turn about unto Goah. 40 And the whole valley of the dead bodies and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy unto Jehovah; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever. (The New, heavenly, born from above Zion, will be resurrected.)

The Man-child, Bride, and Revival (2) (Audio) David Eells - 2/5/23   The Man-Child and Bride Wait Patiently for Revival Claire Pienaar - 11/14/20 (David's notes in red)   (In this dream, Claire represents the Bride because her name means “brilliant” and the Bride's garments are bright and pure as is spoken of in Rev. 19:8 And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright and pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. And Riaan represents the Man-child because his name means, “little lion king.”)   I dreamed my husband, Riaan, and I were waiting in our van, at an old, derelict factory (The factory represents the defunct Babylonish system of apostate Christianity). The factory was 5 stories high. It had 3 grain silos outside towards the right of the building. (Representing the storage of their false teachings to feed their people.)   It looked like it was Autumn and… the grass was yellow and short, and the sand was a reddish-brown color. It looked like it was harvest time but this factory/farm had not been in operation for a very long time. (The apostate dead churches are drying up. They don't evangelize. Many churches out there have a very small percentage new congregants.)    Mat 9:37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few. 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest. Some windows were boarded up, others had thick layers of dust on them, and still others had been knocked out. (They are like social clubs. They have no insight into what is coming.)   We were sitting in our silver van… and, when I peered at the rear-view mirror, I saw the van looked like one of those double-buses with an accordion connection in the middle of it. It was a bright, blue, super long empty bus (Blue Represents the heavenly realm).(The Man-child and Bride are prepared to receive the people from these dried up churches. It was like when Jesus, the Man-child, came and began to draw many people who were spiritually starving in the pharisee's churches.)   We had a large, shiny, empty trailer hitched up to the back of the bus. The trailer was empty. (This represents the Bride and Man-child are expecting to receive much heavenly provision through faith for these new disciples.) (Riaan: Faith calls the things that are not as though they were. We are not walking by sight.)   Then I saw Angelica from UBMLocal. (Angelica means, “angelic and messenger”. Messengers in the Bible were both angelic and human.) She was co-piloting a white helicopter (Angelica represents the angels who are assigned to UBM and who do the Father's bidding and bring our supplies.)(Also, This represents sanctification of the air waves, represented by the white helicopter, through Angelica's work on the UBM-YouTube videos ministry). A silver haired man was on her left with a pale blue pilot's headphones over his ears. (Riaan: The helicopter is piloted by the Lord who has direct communication with Father through the Holy Spirit headphones.)    Angelica had small, pearl earrings in her ears. (Mat. 13:45-46 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is a merchant seeking goodly pearls: 46 and having found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it. The fact that she had these pearls in her ears shows that her “ear gate” is in complete tune with the Holy Spirit – she hears Him and is obedient and He has given her authority to fly this vehicle). (Riaan: A helicopter has direct access to the skies (or heavenlies) unlike an airplane that needs to take-off or build up speed on a runway.)   She and the man came in and landed twice, while we were waiting in the van, and hitched a crane pulley from the helicopter to big wooden crates and flew off again. (The provisions will be supplied out of heaven, like the quail and the manna.) (Riaan: The wooden crates are the “supplies/provisions” being sent in the air to the wilderness– representing the YouTube videos and other online/over-the-air teachings and material needs.)    There was no noise or wind as the helicopter descended and ascended; it was all very quick and peaceful. We knew she was going to a lush, green place (Representing our refuge in the wilderness Tribulation where many will be raised up in the Word to manifest Christ in the last, great revival. The saints went into the wilderness to listen to Jesus the Man-child.)   Then we saw the gate at the front end of the property start to close, and I said to Riaan “The gate's going to smash into the trailer…” and he said, “Ok, I'll swing it around”. He made a U-turn at rapid speed. (Time is running out for the apostate Church and the “door” is closing. God will turn things around quickly when the revival starts.) …We were both smiling and happy the gate didn't do any damage. In fact, the gate stopped closing and reversed, opening up again. We were still waiting, patiently. Then we both heard a trumpet in the far distance. Then I woke up. (This is the first trump to start the wilderness Tribulation.)   I received the following by faith at random when I woke up, Mat. 29:19-20 with my finger on the words, “Holy Spirit and always.” Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: 20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.    The Bride Will be One in Spirit for the Great Revival Tiannah Fire - 8/23/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I was at my house in Australia and my UBM sister in Christ, Marilyn, was at her house in the USA and instantly we started talking to each other in our mind or Spirit. I asked her how we were speaking like this and she said the Man-child anointing is here. My thoughts were instantly connected with her thoughts. I asked her to confirm that we were really talking to one another in Spirit or mind by sending me a text message in the physical and she sent me a text to confirm it. (This is just one of many gifts that the angels told us we would have during the end time revival. Angels can carry messages from God as well as people.)   From Ministering Angels Through UBM (3):    David asked, “What can you tell us about the supernatural methods to get the gospel out and heal, deliver and save?” The angel Baruch said, "The methods of man will not be employed to reach the peoples of the earth, in the days that are coming. The methods are all of the spirit realm and will be administered by the angels who are going to distribute the gifts to the saints. (Meaning, the sanctified ones) These include gifts of translation from place to place, languages, healings, laying on of hands to impart to others their needs and what they're lacking and to replicate the gifts by passing them on to others whom the angels will point out. Supernatural downloads of wisdom and knowledge will be received for specific situations.”    David asked, “What about deliverances?” The angel Baruch said, “The enemy will be on the run during this time. Deliverances will be instantaneous with no resistance on their part. (Many deliverances are this way now if there is cooperation on the part of the victim in repentance and faith.) They will no longer be able to hide in flesh because of the light of revival and the fire of truth that will sweep the elect of the globe.” (Eve said, I understood that he meant that the demons will be fleeing left and right out of people as the true fire of the Holy Spirit fills each one and searches the depths of each individual. There won't be any place left for them to hide in the elect of God.)   David asked, “Will there be mass healings and deliverances? The angel Baruch said, “Yes. These will all take place on the largest scale in human history.” (Eve said, I understood that he meant that masses of people will supernaturally be delivered and healed all at once for times sake because the need is so great and the darkness so pervasive.)   Back to Tiannah: I could also view in my mind or Spirit the other UBM brethren and what they were doing at that moment even though I wasn't physically there. I could also see what the enemy was trying to trick or attack them with and then was able to use my authority in Jesus to command the spirits off them instantly in Spirit through in my mind. (Jesus said in John 5:19 …I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father doing: for what things soever he doeth, these the Son also doeth in like manner.) After this, I saw Michael translate to another country and translate back to the USA. I heard in the Spirit, “Go get dressed because Michael will be here next.” … (Michael means, “Who is like God” and represents those who have manifested Christ being given these gifts.) Then I woke up. I asked God about this dream and heard, (paraphrasing) “This will be the primary means of communication.” I asked, “How?” and heard, "One in Spirit”. David's Teachings Will Reach Far Claire Pienaar - 9/22/21 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I was sitting in a white kitchen. (The white kitchen represents where the unleavened bread is fed to people.) It had a square stainless-steel table and 4 stainless steel chairs in the middle of the kitchen. (The stainless steel table and chairs represents an inability to corrupt or rust through.) I was sitting with an aboriginal woman. She was telling Riaan and I how bad mainline Christianity was and how David Eells was helping her disabled son. (Representing her spiritual fruit of Christ in her that has been disabled by false church doctrines.) We agreed and I remember thinking, “Wow! David's teachings are even reaching the first people groups of Australia". Then this same lady turned the topic to find out my background and I stopped telling her as I heard Holy Spirit say, “Your past doesn't matter anymore.” (It seems that the aboriginal people of Australia will gain access to the David Man-child reformer's teachings.) Then I woke up. African Visitors of the UBM Revival Eve Brast - 8/19/21 (David's notes in red)   (Eve is representing the corporate Bride of the last Adam in this dream.) I dreamed that it was almost dark outside and all local UBM were gathered outside of the UBM house. The area was lit up by street lights.   I was lying on the same cot that I had seen David lying on, in a previous dream where Michael and I had determined that he was dead. (This was the scene that followed the Trials at the World Fair dream in the series, “Tests Prove Who is the Bride (1)”.) (This represents that the Bride follows the Man-child David reformers into death and resurrection life.)   I was lying on my back on this cot and David and Michael carried me on this cot because I was weak and needed to rest and conserve my strength. (The rest is to cease from our works so that God's strength is ours. His power is made perfect in our weakness.)   I was observing myself in the spirit and saw that I had a white head covering on that had a large print of all sorts of colorful fruits on it. (The Bride will bear much fruit as she submits in purity to her heavenly Husband Jesus.)   To my right was a short line of white women with blonde hair who had translated over here from Africa. (In our dreams many will be translated here. Spiritually speaking, they are white with blonde hair because they have been purified by their faith in the cleansing blood of Jesus and are submitted to the Son/sun.) They had come all that way to meet me and were so excited to finally get to greet me in person. They said things to me like, “Oh! We are so honored to finally meet you! We have come a long way and are so blessed to be here with you now.” (The Bride will be honored among those with discernment.)   Each one took my hand in theirs with such love and admiration and warmth. Their excitement was palpable. They told me that they couldn't stay long; that they needed to take the UBM teaching materials back to their people in Africa. (UBM materials have been spreading through Africa very fast.)   I told them that I was so glad to meet them and that they had come, but that I had to apologize for not being able to stand up to give them a proper greeting.   David and Michael were standing over the cot and greeted the women also as they too apologized for my weakness but said something to the effect that I would soon be stronger than ever. Then I woke up. (Right now the Bride is relatively weak but soon they will be led by the Man-child with much authority and power just as it was with the first disciples. Rev 3:7  And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia (The Bride Church of brotherly love) write: These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth and none shall shut, and that shutteth and none openeth: 8  I know thy works (behold, I have set before thee a door opened, which none can shut), that thou hast a little power, and didst keep my word, and didst not deny my name.    9  Behold, I give of the synagogue of Satan, of them that say they are Jews, and they are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. 10  Because thou didst keep the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of trial, that hour which is to come upon the whole world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. 11  I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast, that no one take thy crown.)   The UBM “Luke 9” Truck Arrives to Get the Word Out African Missionary/Pastor - 8/10/21 (David's notes in red)   I had this dream and God confirmed it through another brother, as well.   I dreamed it was daytime on Sunday... around 3pm in the afternoon. I felt like the Spirit of the Lord had something to tell me and I felt a bit sleepy. I was reading the Bible and I closed it and laid down on the carpet to rest.    As I was resting, I got this vision, "I saw, we were here at our home on our ministry grounds, and the whole grounds were fully packed with many brand new computers. I was with some people at home as we were wondering about these computers. (Computers represent the ability from our Father to get out much knowledge to many people easily and quickly. This is what this brother and ministry are doing but this shows it will happen on a much larger scale. Father is saying, they all are going to get the Word out in a very great way.)   While we were still there wondering about these new computers, a new truck came in. (It is new because this is coming.) These big trucks carry sand and sometimes luggage. It came in and backed into the ministry grounds and I ran to it.  I tried to climb it, to see what it had brought, but I could not see in there. It was tall and I tried to see who was driving it. I did not see anyone. It seems like the driver closed the doors so that no one could see him. (Father is hiding that He and His power is behind this great move of God to spread the gospel through this ministry to his country and beyond.)   So, in my striving to see what was in there, I heard a Voice tell me, "What are you looking for ? Can't you see? " and the voice said again, "Look at the back of the truck and read!" I went to the back of the truck and there was a big sign that said, "LUKE, 9” that I did not see before. After reading this, a certain Mexican man, probably living in the USA, came to me and asked me, "Man of God, help me to understand what this Bible verse means, "After God saved his people from Egypt, He destroyed them who did not believe in the wilderness.”    (Jude 1:5  Now I desire to put you in remembrance, though ye know all things once for all, that the Lord, having saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed them that believed not. (Many don't understand that we must continue to walk by faith to see all of our salvation and kingdom benefits. We are being tested in the wilderness of life as to whether we are truly a believer in the Word of God. As we know, many fell away and did not make it to the Promised Land. Jesus said the same in the parable of the sower.)   I looked at him and I was thinking, "This man knows English very well, better than me. Why is he asking me to explain to him something written in the language which he understands better than me?" As I was thinking about it all, the Spirit of the Lord reminded me of the Ethiopian official whom Phillip helped to understand scriptures. Then the Dream ended right there. (The knowledge that this minister has gained through the UBM materials will spread back to the foreigners, who are aliens to the kingdom of God, living in the USA.)   Early morning, the next day, a brother in our ministry came to me and told me that he had a vision, of God telling me to, "Read LUKE 9, all of that chapter and again to read Matthew 10, all of it." (This speaks of Jesus sending out the apostles to spread the gospel of deliverance from sin, sickness, demonic possession, and heavenly provision, everywhere. Jesus multiplying the fishes and loaves for the people to eat the food from heaven.) (This is what they are doing with computers and printers and we have many more books to share with them.)   In these texts Jesus was preaching the crucified self life. (Which the prosperity preachers in his country refuse to do. We have books for this too.) Jesus was glorified before them. (He will be glorified everywhere and in them.) Jesus was casting out demons from the people. (And especially demon doctrines.) Jesus was saying He was going to Jerusalem to be crucified by the false leadership. (Those who love the self life will speak evil of the brethren there and here.) Jesus was preaching to follow Him above all things.   Wow, so when I read Matthew 10 and Luke 9, they both read the same. (Mat 10:5-8  These twelve Jesus sent forth, and charged them, saying, Go not into any way of the Gentiles, and enter not into any city of the Samaritans:  6  but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.  7  And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.  8  Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons: freely ye received, freely give.) (And they will go forth with power.)   UBM has schools raising up many missionaries in foreign lands. Many of our missionaries are in danger of factions here and in their own lands. Many are in countries where Christianity is illegal and hated.  Some have been killed by their factious enemies just as it is here. We are stretched to our limit providing their ministry needs but our God has been faithful. As we can see from these testimonies, He has no limits to meet your needs and ours.      Man-child and Bride Enter Tribulation Eve Brast - 01/01/12 (David's notes in red)   …I dreamed I was in a hotel in the heavens with many brethren, above the continents of the Americas. (The true Church is a hotel in that it is many buildings built together, implying unity, into one holy temple in the Lord -- Ephesians 2:19-22. It is in the heavens because we who walk in the light and fruit of Christ are seated with Him in heavenly places, which is said to be in Him in Ephesians 2:6.) The hotel had many rooms, each with bathrooms in them. (to clean up and get rid of waste of the old life.) We had all been lying on our beds or kneeling next to them praying and interceding for the coming Man-child ministries and also cleansing ourselves in the bathrooms. There seemed to be an excitement among us all, like we were preparing for an event that was about to happen. (The anointing of the Man-child and the choosing of the Bride.) I was starting to become a little weary and frustrated, but I heard the Holy Spirit say, "Endure just a little while longer". (Part of the trial for the saints is to endure to the end which is the manifestation of Christ in you. 2Co. 4:7-11 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the exceeding greatness of the power may be of God, and not from ourselves;  8 we are pressed on every side, yet not straitened; perplexed, yet not unto despair; 9 pursued, yet not forsaken; smitten down, yet not destroyed; 10 always bearing about in the body the dying of Jesus, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our body. 11 For we who live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.)  I decided to go to the hotel lobby. (A hotel is a community of people, many houses built into one holy temple, like the Church is represented in Ephesians. The lobby is the government, the Man-child/Bride.) There were other brethren walking around the lobby and much preparation was going on (as Joseph prepared for the wilderness tribulation by storing up the food). Something made me stop and face the wall of the lobby and, as I did, a hole opened up in the wall and I saw an open vision. I saw Moses (the Man-child) kneeling down on both knees in white clouds (among the righteous people, the Bride). I was looking north toward the US and he was positioned in the clouds over the eastern half of the U.S. (where the vast majority of Christians are), facing east (toward the leadership and enlightenment of, and coming of, the Son in his life. This represents the Son manifested in the Man-child ministry by the latter rain and Word).  There was a very bright light shining on him and he had his hands up and was squinting, trying to look in that direction. His hair looked golden and was dripping with oil that glistened in the bright light. (This is just like the Man-child's hair in a previous vision. This oil on his hair represents submission to the anointing and righteousness of Jesus. The bright light in which he kneels is like that of Jesus when He was on earth.) He was wearing a white linen garment (representing holiness) and sandals. The oil had also soaked the shoulders of the garment. (As this was prophetic of Jesus, it is also prophetic of Jesus in the Man-child's anointing to carry the burden of the government of God's people: "The government shall be upon his shoulder. "{Isa.9:6} For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.  {7} Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of Jehovah of hosts will perform this. Notice that the establishment of the government of the throne of David was establishing the Kingdom of God on Earth -- (Luke 1:31,32; 1 Chronicles 29:23; 2 Chronicles 3:8.) Jesus, the Man-child and His disciples preached the Kingdom of God is nigh. He taught us to pray, "Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven". The Kingdom is where God's will is done and obeyed.)  But he was clean-shaven. (I asked the Father for a scripture for this dream and my finger fell on: {Isa.1:26} and I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy councilors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called The city of righteousness, a faithful town.) (This reveals a repetition of history in that the Man-child ministry will once again come to raise up the Bride, the city of David, Jerusalem, and lead the rest of Israel, as a type of the Church, through the wilderness tribulation, just as Moses did.) The voice of God spoke to him out of the light and said, "It's been 40 years". (The Man-child Moses coming out of 40 years of wilderness to lead God's people through the wilderness tribulation to the mountain of God, a type of His Kingdom.) Moses said to Him, "But I am so small. How shall I stand?" (This saying was Amos' complaint to God in Amos 7:1-6, when He threatened judgment, and so God relented. God will be merciful to the Man-child reformers and strengthen them, for in their weakness God's power is made perfect.)  I asked the Father for a scripture for this saying and my finger fell on: {Eze.11:15} Son of man (Speaking of Jesus in the Man-child), thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel, all of them, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from Jehovah: unto us is this land given for a possession. This whole text is a rebuke to the false leadership of God's people whose sins scattered God's people as we are seeing now in this world faction.  {16} Therefore say, thus saith the Lord: Whereas I have removed them far off among the nations, and whereas I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them a sanctuary for a little while in the countries where they are come. {17} Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord: I will gather you from the peoples, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel. (After a brief time in captivity, God will lead the scattered people out to their spiritual and sometimes physical promised land by the hand of the Man-child reformers.) Then the hole closed and when I turned around all my brethren were hurrying to get ready to leave the hotel. (They were leaving to be a tabernacle in the wilderness.) There was much excitement because what we had been waiting for was finally happening. (Get ready, friends of God. After cleansing the body, it will be time to go to your own land of promise.) I had been dressed in a winter Army P.T. uniform, which is a grey, physical training sweatsuit. (The time for training to fight the enemy will be over.)  But now all the brethren were running to their bathrooms to change their clothes because it was time to follow Moses and because winter was ending and spring was starting. (After the winter of training and trial will come the spring of new life and they will leave for the wilderness land.) No one was taking anything with them (because all will be supplied Rev. 12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that there they may nourish her a thousand two hundred and threescore days.).  I put on a short-sleeve camouflage t-shirt and some overall shorts. I noticed that my legs and feet were very white (winter just over). It was still a little too cool for me, so I brought my son Elijah's camouflage blanket to cover up with. (Representing his mantle of invisibility and protection. Spring is full of Biblical symbolism for the people leaving Egypt to go into the wilderness tribulation whenever this happens.  If we go by the Biblical Hebrew calendar, spring is the time for the New Year, proven by the new moon and heading up of the first-fruits Barley; the Biblical Passover of the Destroyer just before leaving Egypt with Moses; Biblical Feast of Unleavened Bread for seven days fed by the Man-child when they come out of Egypt, and Biblical Feast of First Fruits, a celebration of the First Fruits of God's people. Purim is the celebration of the Jews' deliverance from the beast. I suppose that could be like Israel delivered out of Egypt to go into the wilderness.) Suddenly, the scene changed and my UBM brethren… and I were seated on top of giant bales of straw on a giant trailer pulled by a giant John Deere tractor. (John the Baptist prepares the ground for Jesus. He also prepares the way for the coming of the Man-child.) It was driven by Moses (Representing Jesus in the first-fruits Man-child reformers.).  We were all giants on the Earth. (These giants represent those who are of renown and great in the Kingdom of God on earth. These are like the first disciples who followed Jesus and did His works. They will come out of Egypt and go into the wilderness Tribulation after Moses.) (I asked the Father what the giant "hay ride" with Moses represented and my finger fell on: (Rom.6:5) For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death (to self), we shall be also in the likeness of His resurrection (life). (The Red Sea baptism to enter the tribulation is a baptism unto death that we may be one with the resurrection life of Christ and giants of the Kingdom. The "hay" under their feet represents that the old life of wood, hay and stubble is overcome.)  I asked for a confirmation to this verse and my finger fell on: {Dan.3:1} (In context 1-2) Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon. {2} Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the satraps, the deputies, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image (of the beast) which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. (What a confirmation! This is clearly the One World Order which begins at the same time that the Man-child brings the woman into the wilderness tribulation.) Moses drove the tractor on top of the waters of the Atlantic Ocean down to the Cape of Good Hope at the tip of Africa. (The Man-child and people cross the Red Sea, typed by crossing the Atlantic Ocean, since this is a world-wide happening to go to the wilderness tribulation.) Moses turned the tractor to travel along the west coast of Africa and Europe and on up to England. It felt as if we were on parade. (The Lord will send His chosen to the world to demonstrate His Gospel and convict of sin and righteousness.) (When I asked the Father for a scripture for the overall meaning of this dream, my finger fell on: (Psa.105:13) And they went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.) I looked at the continent of Africa as we were passing by on top of the waters of the Atlantic Ocean, most of the dark, black people were giant in comparison to the continents that they were standing on. They were not as giant as we who were riding on the trailer.  (God is not racist: "man looketh on the outward appearance". But God uses everything for symbolism. Just as Eve does not represent herself, so the black and white people in this text do not represent this in the natural but are symbolical. These black giants represent the giants in the ways of the world from the spiritual type of giants in Genesis, when sons of God mixed with daughters of men, producing hybrids. The great men of Christianity in our day are all a mixture of the world and Christianity. They are the lukewarm, mixed multitudes, part Israel and part Egypt; the half Sons of God by Seth and half daughters of men by Cain. Read Sons of God, Aliens & Giants.)  They were all celebrating something, jumping up and down and dancing with instruments and tambourines, clapping and shouting. My impression in the dream was that they were celebrating a secular event and this is why most of them did not notice us. (Possibly the lukewarm were celebrating the peace covenant of the beast as in Daniel 3:1,2 above) These giants on the African continent were dressed with just grass skirts or little clothing (These are clothed with flesh instead of Christ, for "All flesh is as grass".) and were dancing around fires. This stood out to me for some reason. I wasn't sure what they were celebrating but after a while I realized they weren't seeing us; most of them seemed to be facing southward.  But, every now and then, a white face in the crowd would see us and wave excitedly (These white faces who were excited to see us (UBM) represent our missionaries in Africa who are reaching many with our materials.) But, we were invisible to the majority of the people. (Those who spiritually walked in white or light could recognize the heavenly giants but those who walked in darkness could not.)… Revival Coming Soon  Claire Pienaar - 9/22/22 (David's notes in red)   (The Lord is using Riaan and I as types in this dream. Riaan's name means “little lion king”, like Mordecai, that means “man-child”. Claire means brilliance, and as such, I represent the corporate Bride body, as described in Rev 19: 7-8: Let us rejoice and be exceeding glad, and let us give the glory unto him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright and pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.)    I dreamed Riaan and I lived in a really large place. (Psa. 18:19 He brought me forth also into a large place; He delivered me, because he delighted in me.) (Riaan: The Man-child and Bride receive a place [or refuge] to accommodate those whom the Lord will send.) It looked like a small conference center. I never saw our bedrooms, but only all the “public” areas. We had 3 pools, four lounges and a play area for children. Two pools were indoor and one was outdoor, next to a large river. (Representing the river of living water. Psa. 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.)    We were visited by two people with white hair. One was a female, and one was a male. (White hair represents wisdom. It says in Daniel 12:3 And they that are wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.) Riaan fellowshipped much with them, as I was preparing a meal to serve them. They three had made the decision that, “It would happen”. The two white haired individuals went away and put up one invitation for a teaching session at the local grocery store on Saturday at 3pm. (Saturday represents late on the last day before the beginning of the week, representing the 7 day Tribulation.)   I realized, then, that Riaan and I were foreigners in this dream and that we knew no-one. We had no network or contacts and so we could not invite anyone to our new home. (David said concerning the building of the Lord's house in 1Ch. 29:14-16 But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee. 15 For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as all our fathers were: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is no abiding. 16 O Jehovah our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee a house for thy holy name cometh of thy hand, and is all thine own. And we are about to begin the building of God's house.)   The dream changed to the day and time on the invitation - Saturday at 3pm. There was a knock on the door and Riaan opened it. People literally flooded into our home. There were easily 500 people of all kinds in our home. They all wanted to get into the water and have a good seat to watch the preacher. (The revival is coming and people will flood into the larger house of David that will be built by the Man-child Solomon, the prince of peace who called himself “the preacher”.)   Riaan was up at the stage fixing the sound system. (The Man-child, Jesus, is preparing to reveal Himself through His reformers on the world stage and many will hear His voice, represented by the sound equipment.) I was helping the young moms keep their kids safe in and near the water. (The Bride will help take care of many immature Christians who will be learning to swim in the deeper waters of the Word.) I had a thought to make a meal for all the people, but the white-haired lady appeared to me and said, “We've got caterers”.    Then I saw that they'd turned one of the rooms into a kitchen with round tables for seating. (Jesus told His disciples in John 4:31-34 In the mean while the disciples prayed him, saying, Rabbi, eat. 32 But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not. 33 The disciples therefore said one to another, Hath any man brought him aught to eat? 34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.)   The music started and the people were praising God! (Many will be praising God when revival starts and “the music begins!”) It was amazing. We praised for a long time. I was at the back of the room the whole time, or outside checking on the kids. Then Riaan began preaching. I was happy for him but, I hadn't realized that he was going to be the preacher until that moment. (Many who currently know the Man-child reformers will see them for who they really are once they receive the latter rain anointing.)   Then I went to help dish up food, welcome new folks, and help set up chairs, etc. One man asked me, “Where's the preacher's wife? Normally they sit in front and support their husbands”. I turned to him with a huge grin and said, “Here I am! I'd rather be supporting all of you! He gave me a hug and said “Thank you”. It was amazing and lovely and the place was so full of people coming to the Lord. Then I woke up.    (The Lord said, “Come to me all who are heavy laden, and I will give you rest”. We provide respite for those coming out of the world and/or apostasy. Thank you, Jesus!!)     Moving to the New House of Healing David Timoshchuk - 3/22/22 (David's notes in red)   (David and Alenna represent the Man-child and Bride in this dream.)   I had a dream last night that God moved us to a new house on a steep hill. (This is Mt. Zion and the New Jerusalem, the Bride according to Rev. 21:2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.) I had to use the 4 wheel drive on my SUV to get there. (A 4X4 SUV is an all terrain vehicle and represents overcoming our earthly terrain of our flesh. This is the vehicle required to reach the top of Mt. Zion.) When we got there, it was a beautiful home. (Yes. The Bride on top of Mt. Zion is beautiful.)   Then we went to a church with really tall ceilings and there were a lot of people and they were all praising and worshiping God freely. (This represents revival of the original Church.) I looked up at the ceiling and there was a bald eagle flying by the ceiling. I saw a glow and I heard a voice saying, “This is the Church for whom I have chosen.” After I heard this, I immediately started praying in the Spirit and rejoicing. (I was given a vision that I believe is about Jesus' voice being heard through His vessels …    I was looking out of my window at a little song bird with no particular markings that was singing. (The Lord showed me that this represents His pleasant voice going forth .…) Then the bird swooped down and landed on the concrete at the base of my house. (The Lord showed me that this represented this vessel … is based on the concrete or rock.)   As I watched, the bird morphed into a bigger hawk or eagle type shape.… (The Lamb becomes the Lion. This eagle represents the anointed Man-child which the angels confirmed was the meaning of my sighting of a large eagle flying low at the back door of my house.)   Back to David T.: Then I looked at my wife and told her in the dream, “I just saw a vision.” Then a little girl went up on stage and started singing and I looked at her and was thinking, “She looks familiar.” Then realized it was Zoe' fully healed. (Zoe' means “God's life” and when the revival begins, His life and His Spirit will heal all who come to Him.)   The School of Revival  Tiannah Fire - 1/13/22 (David's notes in red) I had a dream that I went to the elementary school that I went to as a child, and all the people I went to school with were still there. They were all gathered together.     I went up to them all and just started sharing my testimonies of Christ and I was speaking the Word and Truth in Spirit. I felt such a strong amplified love and energy for Christ in spirit. It was like 100x amplified beyond anything I have felt when awake. Just a strong desire for Christ and strong exercising of speaking Truth and The Word with nothing hindering me.  I didn't have to struggle with carnal worries of offending anyone or being embarrassed. Nothing was hindering me or fighting me from proclaiming Jesus. And it was all out of holy love and not out of obligation and I felt love for everyone, even those that had hurt me so much or hated me in the past. I had such strong pure love for all of them, not in a carnal way but spiritually.   It was a real witness as they knew how evil I was as a child; more than most. But they now saw Jesus had transformed my life, they could see The Light of Christ and so many of them repented and turned to Christ in spirit and truth. A big revival throughout the school broke out, starting with repentance.   I walked around to different areas talking about Jesus to everyone. Many others repented and were awakened to the truth and started going around telling others. The fire of God spread so quickly throughout the school and most came to repentance and love for Jesus, and a few that didn't were surrounded by those who did and either they started desiring Christ or they had to run away from the school and not come back. To stay in the school, they would have to be in Christ. The Spirit was contagious, and it was so beautiful seeing true repentance in spirit and truth and love for Christ came so quickly.   I went into a classroom and there were students sitting down, and a woman teacher teaching. I went over to the teacher and said that what they are doing is meaningless and a waste of time. I then turned to the class and started singing Be thou my vision, praising God and all the students started singing also.   After the song I prayed in front of everyone, and I asked God in Faith that every person that has ever been to this school in all of time, would all have the gift of repentance and faith before leaving earth and that they will all be in the Kingdom for eternity. I then heard that I will remember this moment asking God for this because it will and has been answered. Then I woke up. Restoring the Miscarrying Womb of the Church Samuel Fire - 12/1/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamt that Tiannah and I were at our own home and had a few people that came over for prayer and fellowship. We were praying for this young couple. They were having complications in their relationship with emotional and physical pain after having a miscarriage. (The apostate Church has been miscarrying the fruit of Christ for almost 2,000 years now. Hosea 9:13-14 …but Ephraim shall bring out his children to the slayer. 14 Give them, O Jehovah-what wilt thou give? give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.) The woman had lots of pain in her womb. They were in agreement with the Word of God, but had not seen or felt His Power or experienced miracles yet. (Speaking of religious men in the last days God says in 2Ti. 3:5 holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof…) (They didn't yet know the Holy Spirit, as in Acts 19).  Tiannah was sharing her testimonies. I was breaking off all the witchcraft and doing warfare, with the laying on of hands for them in the name of Jesus. Both of them got free from the strongholds of the enemy. (Revival for the apostate Church.)  I then saw the change in them and they were a happy couple and able to have a child again. (The elect among the apostates will finally be able to bear the fruit of Christ in the womb of their hearts, once they are introduced to the real good news.)    The Bride's Special Access to Revival Claire Pienaar - 9/22/22 (David's notes in red)   I dreamed I was walking through a small  convenience store with Riaan and my dad. This convenience store was pretty average in its selections and it did not have what I was looking for.    As I came to the right side of the store, big electronic metal gates appeared and beyond these was an amazing supermarket, with so many fresh products, spaciously and beautifully laid out. There were large cooling fridges and big, wide isles.    My dad (Representing the old man of our carnal nature.) tried to go through the metal gates and they screamed “access denied” with flashing red lights. He walked away, embarrassed. Then Riaan said, “You go in, Claire, and we'll wait for you”. I said, “Ok”. I walked up and down every isle, but I did not put anything in my shopping cart until I approached the fresh goods section. (The Bride only desires the “fresh” living water or living Bread of the Word and will not consume any “boxed or processed” foods like the doctrines that the apostate churches offer.) (My dad represents the old man who is denied access to the heavenly gifts and fruit because he can not receive anything good from God. He has to die.)     As I rounded a corner, I was hit on the head and shoulders from behind by a big, bulky teenage boy dressed in black with black hair. (This represents being clothed in darkness and submitted to darkness.) I was so taken aback by this unsuspected act of violence from a stranger. (In these last days the elect of God will be attacked in ways we never suspected by the apostates. Mat. 10:34-36 Think not that I came to send peace on the earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. 35 For I came to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law: 36 and a man's foes shall be they of his own household.)   He had a teenage sister who was tall with long, strawberry blonde hair. (A teenager is someone who is immature and rebellious. Strawberry blonde hair represents a mixture of submission to the Son and sin. She represents all apostate Christianity.) She bared her teeth at me and I saw that she had dogs' teeth.    I rebuked them both and looked at their mom, who had shaggy, short hair. I said, “This is not how children should behave”. The mother replied weakly, “We go to church”. She repeated this 3 or 4 times. (The apostate mother Church teaches her children that they only need to go to Church to be saved and that it's okay to remain in your sins.)    Then the manager came to me. He was larger than life and wore a light blue shirt, navy pants and a blue apron. He was lovely and said, “We have it all on camera and you can come in here and we'll take your statement”. (The manager represents the angels who record everything and often are the ones who administer justice for the Lord's people.)    I walked with him into a manager's office. There were 4 ladies sitting on leather chairs and they were in agreement with him. (Faith, Self-control, Sincerity and Love. These are 4 of the 7 women who bore the tower in Hermas' vision.) I stood with my back to the wall, facing the ladies and the manager. I had the unruly children on my left, and their mother on my right. I said, “I don't want to press charges, I just want to deliver them”. (The Bride doesn't press charges or "judge". She wants to pray and intercede). The teenage girl was ecstatic to be delivered! She believed she could be changed. I said, “If I pray for you, you'll be delivered”. (Many lukewarm Christians will be set free in the coming last, great revival.)   Then the mother took out a blank business card and said, “Write your email and phone number here and we will call you”. (The mother Church doesn't really want deliverance for her children, represented by the, “Don't call us we'll call you” attitude, but the elect among the apostates, represented by the strawberry blonde girl, will finally get down to business when the judgements begin and will want to get in touch with the Man-child and Bride.)… Then I woke up.     I asked the Lord for words for this dream and received by faith at random:  Amos 7:3, Jehovah repented concerning this: It shall not be, saith Jehovah. (In context, 1-3) Thus the Lord Jehovah showed me: and, behold, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings. 2 And it came to pass that, when they made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I beseech thee: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small. 3 Jehovah repented concerning this: It shall not be, saith Jehovah.    I also asked the Lord for more information about this dream, and received by faith at random, 1 Tim 1:13 with my finger on “faith and love”. (In context, 12-14) I thank him that enabled me, even Christ Jesus our Lord, for that he counted me faithful, appointing me to his service; 13 though I was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: howbeit I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief; 14 and the grace of our Lord abounded exceedingly with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.    I asked the Lord for one more word about this dream, and received Titus 3:4-5 by faith at random: But when the kindness of God our Savior, and his love toward man, appeared, 5 not by works done in righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit.   A Sudden Move of God Debbie Fenske - 1/16/23 (David's notes in red) During our morning Zoom meeting, the Lord allowed me to see in the Spirit, those whom we would call the lowliest of people, and those addicted to every kind of sin. I could see the Spirit of the Lord suddenly coming upon them, moving in their spirits. I could discern their intense desire for God. These were dry, needy, and homeless people on the streets. (These represent spiritually homeless people.) I could see them dropping to their knees, and raising their hands to heaven with a sudden, but awesome desire for Jesus, to truly want to know Him.  “I am doing this. I am doing the work. But even My people, who know My truths, and are walking in My ways, will see, and wonder if such persons could be touched in such a way. But I say to you, ‘What a remnant I am bringing forth!' So, I warn you, I warn My people to be prepared. Be ready to receive My gift to minister to those who I will allow you to run into as you go about your business of the day. And I say, do not let their appearance stop you from being moved by My spirit, to minister by My Spirit as I bring you face-to-face with them.  Be alert and do the work of God. Even those affluent ones who have sat before Bible teachers hearing My Word preached, and receiving it with joy, and walking in My ways to the best of their knowledge, now will suddenly receive revelation from My Spirit that they are yet so empty, and needy of the deeper truths of My Word. They are going to suddenly desire more of Me, and they will seek Me with all their hearts, praying with earnest out of a sudden yearning desire which I will suddenly impart to them. (In revivals in the past, sinners and self-righteous people suddenly, for no apparent reason, have been overcome with grief for their sins and cried out to God.) And many will find you and will truly find Me through the ministry and revelation truths you have received in Me through My Word and are so freely giving out.  Be ready, My People. For I will suddenly do a quick work. Have you not heard? The harvest is ready to be picked.. Therefore, I say to you, ‘Stay prepared in Me, and go forth, intentionally, into My harvest field. Drop all things that would hinder you from being My vessels. For I have called you.” Thank you, Father!

Persecuted to Sanctified (Audio) David Eells – 1/18/23 The Angel Army Protects UBM  Samuel Fire - 1/15/23 (David's notes in red)  I dreamt that I, my wife Tiannah, and many of the UBM brethren were gathered at a man's house, where his wife and family were. This man and others I had not seen before eventually factioned away from UBM. But at this time we all were friendly and sharing the Word and the peace of Christ. (These became traitorous Judas', just as King David's son Absalom betrayed Him.) It was a beautiful, late morning and the sun was very bright. A nice, cool breeze was blowing gently. As the day got closer to noontime, clouds started to build-up and loom. (These represent the storm clouds of selfish ambition, sin, unforgiveness, that build up and block the light of the sun/Son and their spiritual eyesight becomes cloudy and God separates them through factious spirits.) We were there to have a barbecue and ... the food was getting cooked and served to the outdoor area. (The barbecue represents the sacrifice of our flesh that we burn up on the altar when we live the crucified life. 1Ch 21:24 And king David said to Ornan, Nay; but I will verily buy it for the full price: for I will not take that which is thine for Jehovah, nor offer a burnt-offering without cost. The children were all playing and running around in the yard and the adults were talking in small groups about various topics regarding the Lord.   Then the wind intensified and the clouds grew very dark and far into the distance there were storm clouds with lightning. Next, the factious accused David Eells, Michael Hare, and a few others of something. (The storm clouds of faction may come against God's true ministers but, as we will see, they will not prevail.) The factious people who started the argument began to be very angry and violent, pushing others.  I shouted out, "We didn't do that and have no idea about it." David Eells, Michael and the others in the UBM family, were very peaceful and still smiling at them. (Psa 35:11-16 Unrighteous witnesses rise up; They ask me of things that I know not. 12 They reward me evil for good, To the bereaving of my soul. 13 But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth: I afflicted my soul with fasting; And my prayer returned into mine own bosom. 14 I behaved myself as though it had been my friend or my brother: I bowed down mourning, as one that bewaileth his mother. 15 But in mine adversity they rejoiced and gathered themselves together: The abjects gathered themselves together against me, and I knew it not; They did tear me, and ceased not: 16 Like the profane mockers in feasts, They gnashed upon me with their teeth.) All of a sudden the factious pulled out weapons and started to shoot guns at all the UBM brethren. (This usually character assassination by criticism and slander without ever having any proof of sin. Their demons do not want them to hear scriptural reasoning so many times “they shoot from darkness”.) We all just calmly grabbed our things and our children and left and didn't look back. (We must protect our fruit by obeying the Word and “have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness”.)  At this time rain started to pour and lightning was flashing all about.  Then the scene changed and we were in an abandoned industrial area with empty buildings. The brethren were all gathered and calmly discussing the previous events around a small fire near the center. (The UBM brethren gather around the fire of the Holy Spirit in love and unity.) We had a very basic set-up and were all able to rest and have a little food and drink. (1Ti.6:6-8 But godliness with contentment is great gain: 7 for we brought nothing into the world, for neither can we carry anything out; 8 but having food and covering we shall be therewith content.) Everyone was still very happy and joyful. We then started to pray for the factious people and for their evil spirits to leave. (Mat. 5:44 but I say unto you, Love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you.) While the children were sleeping, the adults were praying and agreeing on the next place we should go and who would stay awake to watch out for our enemies. (Rom. 8:14  For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.) Later in the night, vehicles sped towards the area where we were staying. One of the brethren, who was on watch, called out as they saw the lights of the vehicles from a distance. (The brethren on watch represents the UBM dreamers through whom the Lord warns His people.) Everyone woke up and we all prayed together and calmed the children down. As we prayed, the brethren had multiple confirmations that we were invisible here and sound-proof. We were safe; however, if we tried to leave they would see us.  (This represents being hidden in Christ. As long as we abide in Him, we will be safe and not seen by our enemies.) A few brethren were looking out and could see the factious man and his followers inside these vehicles. They looked very angry and the factious leader had a megaphone and was saying, "Come out and fight! Let's settle this now!” (This is like 2Ki. 18:28-30 Then Rabshakeh stood and cried with a loud voice in the Jews language, and spake, saying, Hear ye the word of the great king, the king of Assyria. 29 Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you out of his hand: 30 neither let Hezekiah make you trust in Jehovah, saying, Jehovah will surely deliver us, and this city shall not be given into the hand of the king of Assyria.) David Eells reassured all of us that, “There was nothing they could do to us and we are all safe. (They are only a danger to those who are ready to be separated so that their leaven does not leaven the body.) The Lord Jesus had us all protected and we were to just wait and they would go away.” (2Ki. 19:6-7 And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say to your master, Thus saith Jehovah, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me. 7 Behold, I will put a spirit in him, and he shall hear tidings, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.) The UBM brethren kept in prayer and faith. Some of the brethren were fixing small meals for everyone and others were doing various tasks; all the while praying aloud or in the Spirit. No one became anxious or upset. There was a huge thunderstorm, and the night was black. Then all of the sudden the rain, lightning and thunder stopped, and light started to pour all around the whole building we were all in. I could hear musical instruments from a far distance and high pitch singing surrounding us from all directions. Then Eve shouted out, "The Lord's Army is here! Rejoice!"  Everyone in our group was sitting with their arms raised, even all the children! And we were either shouting for joy, or in Holy Tongues. The small campfire was now a giant, blazing, roaring fire and there was not a shadow anywhere. (The perfect day is when there is the most light and no shadows. Pro. 4:18 But the path of the righteous is as the dawning light, That shineth more and more unto the perfect day.) The whole room was shaking and I could feel such a strong warmth like I was wrapped in a woolen coat. (Revival and the anointing of the Holy Spirit will turn the tides for God's elect on a mass scale. The angels told us that they would assist the saints during the end-time great revival.) (Then the Lord's army showed up.) I could see that the light was made up of angels and there were thousands of them all around the whole building! There was not a gap between them. The singing and musical instruments were so powerful and in unison that it was shaking the floor.   The factious people outside in the vehicles were then surrounded by the angel army. All of them dropped their weapons and eventually they were all finally arrested. Then I woke up. (This reminds me of Eve's dream of the factious dogs being rounded up and locked up by the angels to be killed by lethal injections in Restoration for the Saints (3). We have had several dreams where the vaccine plague was killing the faction who would not repent.)     Remain Unified Through Persecutions Vanessa Weeks - 1/12/23 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that I was living with a small group of other believers. It was an oval shaped area with small, plain houses, that were connected together. (God's true people dwell together in unity.) (Eph 2:20-22 being built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone; 21 in whom each several building, fitly framed together, groweth into a holy temple in the Lord; 22 in whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God in the Spirit.) This was in a wilderness area (representing tribulation), and these dwellings were identical. I knew that we were all there because of being persecuted by the powers that be. (The corporate Beast will persecute the Man-child and His disciples through the corporate Harlot, which includes the faction, just as in Jesus' day.) But I knew we each had a choice in giving up what we had and that some of us had given up great possessions. The joy of the Lord was great in this place. Heb. 10:34 For ye both had compassion on them that were in bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your possessions, knowing that ye have for yourselves a better possession and an abiding one.  And Heb 11:24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; 25 choosing rather to share ill treatment with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season... There was water in the center of the dwellings, and it was to give us refreshment. I saw a man who had broad shoulders in the water, and he was wearing a white shirt. (Like Jesus, the Man-child reformers will have the government upon their shoulders, and, like Jesus, they will stir up the people with their words to bring a great revival as well as stirring up their enemies to kill them.) He was stirring up the water with his right hand. Then I woke up. (This represents stirring up the people who are represented by waters in the book of Revelation.) (The great revival will bring unity and love which is hated by satan in his people.)     The Lord's Love Manifested Through UBM Tiannah Fire - 1/15/23 (David's notes in red) (Tiannah currently lives in Australia.) In the dream I was at Matt and Anna's house, and we were preparing to go over to Fio and Lana's for the Friday worship fellowship. I was super excited, but nervous to meet all the brethren.   When we got to Fio and Lana's, I first saw David Eells and I instantly went and hugged him and I felt such love, comfort, peace.... It felt pure and there was no evil present or fleshy feelings or thoughts. Usually, in the flesh, I'm having to cast down judging thoughts, feelings or pride and rejection etc. However, none of that was present; there was only the Holy Spirit's presence.   I felt spiritually one with all the brethren, in a pure, spiritual way. One with Jesus and with them, and there was nothing separating us from being one with each other. It is so hard to find physical words to describe the extraordinary presence I felt, but it was pure.  David looked so very young. ...His skin was completely clear, no wrinkles or blemishes and everything was physically perfect. I have never seen something in the natural that was so physically pure as how I saw the brethren in this dream.   There was only innocence and purity present, and we were completely connected in one mind. It was as though everyone knew what was going to happen before it happened. David and I were in one mind when we hugged each other.   I felt so much joy in the Lord and agape' love for David. ... And it was if each of the brethren could read each other's minds. (This phenomenon is talked about by those who have visited heaven and returned to testify about it.)  After hugging David, I turned and looked to my other side and I saw Vanessa Weeks and I felt such spiritual excitement and joy to see my sister. I felt this ... connection that could never be broken. The connection with her too felt as if we were one together in Christ and that all the brethren were as one without any fleshly or unholy hindrance. It felt completely pure. I felt a strong urge to hug her and we hugged and it was so beautiful. There was just pure love. ...   Vanessa, too, looked so young and ageless, with perfect skin. Her skin was more beautiful than any skin I have ever seen, and there was just pure love in and through her and it was Jesus in her and Jesus in me. All of us were connected as one and I knew it was now and for all eternity. It was Jesus in each of us.   The Holy presence was amplified once we arrived at the worship fellowship and there was no nervousness anymore. Nothing evil was trying to block me. I couldn't feel or hear rejection like I usually do. That was all gone and every one of us were in unity with Christ. ...There was nothing that could separate or break our unity. It was so extraordinary not having to battle, or even hear any unclean thoughts or feelings. It was just Jesus without any hindrance. Jesus in all and through all. Praise God!   A few days ago, I also had a similar dream but I only remember a glimpse of it. I saw Eve right in front of me and I felt this strong connection in the Spirit and the physical and I knew that we were connected and one in Christ now and for eternity. I felt such pure, spiritual love for Eve, and she too felt it back. I said, “My beautiful sister Eve” and I had this strong urge to hug her, and we hugged and the presence of God was so strong, peaceful, comforting, and pure. There was nothing unclean present. It was only the Holy Spirit. It was so pure and even remembering all this, brings tears to my eyes about how real it all felt, and how pure it felt, and it's all Jesus, all His Glory.  We had a long hug, and the presence of God was so strong, and we stopped hugging, and I said something about how her hair was a different shade of red than I imagined, and I said that God knows that red hair has always been my favorite color hair. I said something about how I love her beautiful curls that God gave her. I was admiring her in a spiritual, pure way, not in a fleshy carnal way; admiring her as Christ in her and her as Christ's bride, as the creation and redeemed of Christ. Eve also looked so young and ageless. There were no wrinkles or anything, and her skin was just pure.   After talking with her, I looked at her again and I just felt such love for her, and I wanted to hug her again and so we hugged again and it felt so pure and spiritually connected. Every time we stopped hugging, I just hugged her again because there was so much love and a pure connection in holiness and nothing evil or carnal. Then I woke up. (This is hard for me to put in physical words as it's so hard to describe spiritual things but there have been a few times where the Lord has allowed me to see, feel and experience a glimpse of His Love for the brethren, especially the local brethren in Tennessee. His love for each of you is beyond anything I can put in words; beyond anything we could imagine or describe. It's so strong and brings me to tears in remembering what He allowed me to see and feel.   It is all Him. Everything is Him and He cares every second for everything about each of you, and He wants to be a part of every moment in your life and mind. He looks past all the faults and sees you as if they are already gone, and they are, because of Jesus' sacrifice.   The enemy tries to trick us so much to think that God doesn't care about little things and that we aren't good enough. But Jesus has already done it all and He already lives in each of you in full and He can only manifest it fully if we allow Him too. He can only manifest the percentage that we allow Him to. He wants to manifest through us 100% in every part of our existence, more than we want Him to. He desires to be with us and in us and of us more than we want Him to. He loves us more than we could ever understand.   But when I was allowed to experience and feel a glimpse of His Love for the brethren, His Love was well beyond pure and Holy and well above anything than we can imagine or put into words. One time when watching the live worship fellowship on youtube, it was at the beginning before anyone even started singing. I felt the Lord come upon me so strong and I felt Him take over my body, and He was looking through my eyes at each of the brethren with complete pure love. It wasn't me, and I wish I could experience the Lord looking through me all the time. But I just felt complete, whole, pure, undefiled Love and Grace for each of the brethren, and there wasn't anything unclean that could hinder it or separate His Love for them. And each of the brethren are all just as important as the other, the body can't function without all the parts and no part is the same. Just as each of God's children is unique from the other and there is no one else in existence like each individual, but they are all still connected in unity with each other as Jesus.)   This reminds me of a dream the Lord gave Eve:   Seeing Others Through Faith Eve Brast - 06/13/08 (David's notes in red) The Shulamite bride in Song of Solomon had the eyes of a dove, meaning she saw things the way God's Spirit sees things. This dream teaches us to see others by faith as God does, to see that they have already been given godliness through Christ. This is the opposite of the way the faction views righteous people. {2Pe.1:2} Grace to you and peace be multiplied in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord; {3} seeing that his divine power hath granted unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that called us by his own glory and virtue; {4} whereby he hath granted unto us his precious and exceeding great promises; that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in that world by lust. Spirit eyes see the end from the beginning. I had a dream that began in an indoor swimming pool area. The voice of David Eells was talking over my right shoulder throughout the whole dream. He was showing me different people and situations; people that I had wondered whether they were saved or would be saved, or if these people were making the right choices or living their lives the right way. These things had disturbed or concerned me throughout my life. (Rather than wonder about them we should have faith for them to be saved.  {Php.1:6} being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ: {7} even as it is right for me to be thus minded on behalf of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as, both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers with me of grace.) David would show me these different people. Some of them were close friends or family members, others were people who were strangers whom I had never seen before or people I had only had brief encounters with. …I was walking on the right side of the pool. David's voice was talking over my shoulder in my right ear from behind me. Suddenly, I could hear the voices of my son Noah and his friend Nathan squabbling ... I walked up to them and wasn't sure how to handle their squabble and was frustrated with their childish foolishness ... Then David Eells walked over to both of them and in a gentle way started teaching them ... He calmed them with a gentle voice. Then he showed them how to…reconcile their differences. (Mat. 5:9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called sons of God.) Then the scene changed. David's voice was still in my right ear, teaching me. The more he taught me, the more my spiritual sight opened up and I began to see these people the way God sees them or knows them, even when they are still living in sin or ignorance. (We have to be the peacemakers between the immature and teach them to let God be the judge between them.) The next scene was outdoors on some land that David owned... I drove up in a flatbed pick-up with food, plants, flowers and one small crate of special baby birds. I was contributing these things as a gift to UBM. (No buying and selling but giving and receiving.) All of us lived on his land and had our different positions and chores or things that we were assigned to do, based on what we were good at. (Everyone will work according to their assigned gift from God, Him working in them to will and to do of His good pleasure; this creates peace and rest.) ... The women and I carried all the food, plants and flowers into the greenhouse nursery to tend to them. I set the baby birds on the top right corner of a table in the center of the nursery. (Baby Christians in the nursery will grow up like the Father's planting.) One of the women who was older than me in her 50's with dyed, dark, brown hair walked past the birds and looked down at them with presumptive irritation and said, "What are those?" I started to tell her but she cut me off because her true intention was to make a point that she wasn't going to help me feed them or care for them. She said, "Well, I hope you don't expect me to take care of them". I was offended at first by her presumptuousness. But David's voice on my shoulder explained to me why she said that, because that was not God's calling for her and then something amazing happened. All at once I was able to see her heart attitude and knew this woman intimately as God saw her! All my anger just melted away …and I loved this woman and was so grateful for all she had done for UBM. I was shown how precious and valuable she was to God, and I cherished her like a hidden treasure! (All will learn to appreciate individual callings and gifts as the people manifestly become the body of Christ. No one will do without for the body will minister to itself as it was in the book of Acts.) After this, the scene changed, and the plant nursery turned into my grandmother's house. It was Christmas and there were gobs of Christmas décor everywhere. My mother's family was celebrating Christmas and standing around eating and talking to one another. My grandmother was being the good hostess that she has always been, preparing food and asking everyone about themselves ... (In God's nursery the babies can grow up out of their Babylonish traditions without condemnation.) Suddenly, I realized that my grandfather was there. (He passed away back in September 2007.) He was dressed in a colorful Christmas sweater and he looked so young and full of life! (Representing those that are immature who are dead in their sins can grow up out of Babylonish works.) ..3. My grandmother acted as if it were normal to have a dead man mulling around her house! My mom finally came in and I rushed over to her in a panic and said, "Thank God you are here! Grandpa is alive! And he is running around here talking to everyone!" I was fearful and horrified. My mother was surprised and concerned. She didn't know what to do except pretend like everything was normal and talk to my grandpa like he was still alive. My mom and I were the only two who realized that my grandpa had died. (Resurrection life will come to those in immature Babylonish habits when we see them and talk to them as though they are alive from the dead and new creatures in Christ.  (2Co.5:14) For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that one died for all, therefore all died; {15} and he died for all, that they that live should no longer live unto themselves, but unto him who for their sakes died and rose again. {16} Wherefore we henceforth know no man after the flesh: even though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now we know [him so] no more. {17} Wherefore if any man is in Christ, [he is] a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new.  {18} But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave unto us the ministry of reconciliation; {19} to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation. {20} We are ambassadors therefore on behalf of Christ, as though God were entreating by us: we beseech [you] on behalf of Christ, be ye reconciled to God. {21} Him who knew no sin he made [to be] sin on our behalf; that we might become the righteousness of God in him.) As I stood there, I could hear David's voice over my shoulder again and it calmed me down and my fear melted away. ... Then that amazing thing happened again! I started quietly observing my grandpa as he talked and interacted with the other family members. He was beautiful and radiant. He was kind and his heart was child-like. I saw him the way God had seen him! (Yes, by faith and renewed imagination as a new creature in Christ.) He was going around really just pouring his soul into his children and grandchildren! I couldn't believe what a precious soul this was! (My grandpa used to be a very hard man in his younger years. When I was a child, I heard him and my father arguing as my dad tried to share the Gospel with him. A stream of obscenities would pour out of his mouth. He said he didn't need God. Later in his life during his 60s he had a change of heart. He got involved in a local Methodist church and went to Sunday school and church most Sunday's and dragged my grandma along, who also got involved with that church. They were really serious about it all. (As baby Christians we were all involved in a simplistic experience of Christianity so we should love these as Christ loved us as His babies who are learning to walk -- at the same time correcting the system and leaders who would keep them as babes.) When he had been alive I judged them for their denominational choice and what I viewed as a shallow, almost worthless relationship with God. (Babies play in the shallow end of the pool until they grow up. We must speak justification by faith to them to give them the joy and confidence of their salvation.) …As I was observing my dead grandpa at this Christmas party, I was able to see his heart the way God saw him. It was incredible to me how I could feel how God felt and saw my grandpa! I saw that God cherished his child-like faith and his desire to help others understand things and mentor them and his desire to help others with their projects. (We must see the immature as accounted righteous by faith.) At that moment I knew that he was with the Lord and not in hell as I had been concerned about it since his death. The scene changed again, and my grandmother's house turned into the apartment of two homosexual men. As I observed them, they ... couldn't see me. I was immediately disgusted that I was in their home. (We are forbidden to judge any of the lost for they have not grace yet to obey and are in bondage, to be pitied [1 Cor.5:9-13].) I was fearful of some sort of defilement or something. These two men were nicely dressed. I listened to them talk. They had several Great Dane dogs that were running around in the back yard. I wasn't happy about those dogs. … As I was feeling threatened by these men and their dogs, I heard David's voice talking in my right ear again and as I listened the threat melted away and I began to see these men's hearts. They had such compassion and loving kindness in their hearts! I watched them love and care for their animals, when suddenly I heard a knock at the door. One of the men went over to open the door. There was a naked man who was obese and hairy all over his body sitting in a wheelchair with a colostomy bag taped to his lower abdomen that was filled with feces. He was homeless and needed a place to live and someone to help him change his colostomy bag every day. The sight of this man horrified me and I doubted these men would take him in. I watched as they happily discussed the possibility between themselves and eagerly agreed to take this crippled, naked man into their home and take care of him! I was astounded at their love for other people, their compassion and the blindness to the flaws of others.  God showed me all the qualities that he had formed in their hearts, how He used the betrayal and rejection that they had experienced throughout their lives in order to form Christ in them! I was seeing the end from the beginning in these men (even though they were still in ignorance and lost in their sin). (Those who have been sinners and rejected can appreciate the acceptance of Christ though the Gospel. Some lost people have more of the nature of Christ than some Christians but they are not justified through faith in the sacrifice of Jesus. In everyone whom God will ultimately call to Himself, He prepares the soil by breaking it up through adverse circumstances and failure, so that through repentance and faith the seed of Christ is planted. Those who are forgiven of much are able to love much. {Luk.7:47} Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, [the same] loveth little.) God told me, "These are mine!" And they were so beautiful!! So perfect in heart! Such compassion that I had never seen or experienced before! It just made me want to weep. I felt defiled by my own attitudes and judgmental self-righteousness and was horrified at myself. David's words had helped me to see things and people the way that God saw them. I was able to finally see my own heart clearly and repent to God. After this dream, seeing others the way God sees them became a permanent gift. (God sees us as a finished product from the beginning through Jesus' sacrifice and we must do the same for others. As we forgive them, God forgives us. We can tell them the good news that they are free from sin. The sinner will appreciate this greatly.) ... They looked so precious to me, and I just cherished each one in my heart like a rare jewel! I didn't see their sin anymore or their imperfections. I wasn't concerned about their immediate states or what they were planning to do that was sinful or wrong. I just saw the end from the beginning and felt such rest! (Seeing our loved ones through the sacrifice of Christ by faith gives us rest that God will do the work in them.) Not only did God settle my uncertainty about the salvation or spiritual condition of all the people whom I have prayed for or been "concerned" about in my family or other people's families, but He gave me the faith I needed to believe in the sanctification of others that we pray for and believe for their salvation. (When we pray for lost loved ones we are commanded to believe we have received what we prayed for and see it as done. {Mar.11:24} Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye received (in original Greek) them, and ye shall have them.) This has been an issue for me that I have worried over and struggled with a lot. These situations were representational of all the lost loved ones whom the saints of God are praying and believing for! Praise God for peace of mind and for His great mercy! To be balanced on this subject, we must not give grace to believers who walk in willful disobedience. {Heb.10:26} For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more a sacrifice for sins, {27} but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness of fire which shall devour the adversaries. {28} A man that hath set at nought Moses law dieth without compassion on [the word of] two or three witnesses: {29} of how much sorer punishment, think ye, shall he be judged worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant wherewith he was sanctified an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? {30} For we know him that said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

(Audio) David Eells - 10/19/22 Biblical Worship and Praise David Eells Vines Expository Dictionary says the Greek word “Worship" is: "to make obeisance, do reverence to" (from pros, "towards", and kuneo, "to kiss"), is the most frequent word rendered "to worship". It is used of an act of homage or reverence. In other words, worship is an act of love toward God. Father is looking for those who worship Him with all of their hearts: {Joh.4:21} Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, shall ye worship the Father. {22} Ye worship that which ye know not: we worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews. {23} But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers. {24} God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth. There is much fake worship -- words without heart and spirit. True worship is with the mouth and heart and fear of God: {Isa.29:13} And the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw nigh unto me, and with their mouth and with their lips to honor me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment of men which hath been taught them. (This is faking worship.) Worship is the way to bring God's presence: {Psa.100:1} Make a joyful noise unto Jehovah, all ye lands. {2} Serve Jehovah with gladness: Come before his presence with singing. {3} Know ye that Jehovah, he is God: It is he that hath made us, and we are his; We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. {4} Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, And into his courts with praise: Give thanks unto him, and bless his name. {5} For Jehovah is good; His lovingkindness endureth for ever, And his faithfulness unto all generations. Worshipping brings health: Pro. 17:22 A cheerful heart is a good medicine (Hebrew: healing); But a broken spirit drieth up the bones. Worship brings freedom and freedom and humility should bring worship: {Act.16:25} But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns unto God, and the prisoners were listening to them; {26} and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison-house were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed. {Dan.4:37} Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven; for all his works are truth, and his ways justice; and those that walk in pride he is able to abase. Worship reveals our love and admiration for God and He knows it: {Psa.63:1} O God, thou art my God; earnestly will I seek thee: My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee, In a dry and weary land, where no water is. (Praise comes from the Hebrew word, hallel, meaning to brag or boast about, like this in:) {2Sa.7:22} Wherefore thou art great, O Jehovah God: for there is none like thee, neither is there any God besides thee, according to all that we have heard with our ears. {1Ch.29:11} Thine, O Jehovah, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heavens and in the earth is thine ; thine is the kingdom, O Jehovah, and thou art exalted as head above all. Command your depressed soul to praise and worship God: {Psa.42:11} Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God; For I shall yet praise him, Who is the help of my countenance, and my God. Worship only the true God and no other thing as god: 1Jn 2:15  Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.   {Exo.20:2} I am Jehovah thy God, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. {3} Thou shalt have no other gods before me. {4} Thou shalt not make unto thee a graven image, nor any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: {5} thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them; for I Jehovah thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me, {6} and showing lovingkindness unto thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments. Praise Him everywhere, with a new song, one that comes from your heart, and dancing and with all instruments: {Psa.149:1} Praise ye Jehovah. Sing unto Jehovah a new song, And his praise in the assembly of the saints. {2} Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. {3} Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises unto him with timbrel and harp. {4} For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people: He will beautify the meek with salvation. {5} Let the saints exult in glory: Let them sing for joy upon their beds. {Psa. 150:1} Praise ye Jehovah. Praise God in his sanctuary: Praise him in the firmament of his power. {2} Praise him for his mighty acts: Praise him according to his excellent greatness. {3} Praise him with trumpet sound: Praise him with psaltery and harp. {4} Praise him with timbrel and dance: Praise him with stringed instruments and pipe. {5} Praise him with loud cymbals: Praise him with high sounding cymbals. {6} Let everything that hath breath praise Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah. It is the will of the Lord to worship in songs and hymns: {Eph.5:17} Wherefore be ye not foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. {18} And be not drunken with wine, wherein is riot, but be filled with the Spirit; 19 speaking one to another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody with your heart to the Lord; {20} giving thanks always for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God, even the Father. Worship in tongues and with understanding: {1Co.14:15} What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. Worship when you don't feel like it: {Hab.3:17} For though the fig-tree shall not flourish, Neither shall fruit be in the vines; The labor of the olive shall fail, And the fields shall yield no food; The flock shall be cut off from the fold, And there shall be no herd in the stalls: {18} Yet I will rejoice in Jehovah, I will joy in the God of my salvation. Praise (meaning "brag on") Him to everyone: {1Ch.16:23} Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth; Show forth his salvation from day to day. {24} Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples. {25} For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He also is to be feared above all gods. {26} For all the gods of the peoples are idols: But Jehovah made the heavens. {27} Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and gladness are in his place. {28} Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength; {29} Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come before him: Worship Jehovah in holy array. (Representing the righteous acts of the saints in Rev. 19.) {30} Tremble before him, all the earth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved. {31} Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; And let them say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth. Worship and praise will conquer overwhelming enemies: {2Ch.20:17} Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of Jehovah with you, O Judah and Jerusalem; fear not, nor be dismayed: to-morrow go out against them: for Jehovah is with you. {18} And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell down before Jehovah, worshipping Jehovah. {19} And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites and of the children of the Korahites, stood up to praise Jehovah, the God of Israel, with an exceeding loud voice. {20} And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem: believe in Jehovah your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. {21} And when he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed them that should sing unto Jehovah, and give praise in holy array, as they went out before the army, and say, Give thanks unto Jehovah; for his lovingkindness endureth for ever. {22} And when they began to sing and to praise, Jehovah set liers-in-wait against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, that were come against Judah; and they were smitten. Worship to bind the enemy and their kings: {Psa.149:6} Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand; {7} To execute vengeance upon the nations, And punishments upon the peoples; {8} To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron; {9} To execute upon them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints. Praise ye Jehovah. Because judgment and enemies are near, fear God and worship Him: {Rev.14:7} and he saith with a great voice, Fear God, and give him glory; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made the heaven and the earth and sea and fountains of waters. {Dan.3:16} Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee in this matter. {17} If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace; and he will deliver us out of thy hand, O king. {18} But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. {2Ki.17:38} and the covenant that I have made with you ye shall not forget; neither shall ye fear other gods: {39} but Jehovah your God shall ye fear; and he will deliver you out of the hand of all your enemies. We can clap and shout our triumph over enemies. Triumph is celebrating the victory before we see it: {Psa.47:1} Oh clap your hands, all ye peoples; Shout unto God with the voice of triumph. {Jos.6:20} So the people shouted, and the priests blew the trumpets; and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, that the people shouted with a great shout, and the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. We also celebrate the Lord's triumphs in worship: {Exo.15:20} And Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances. {21} And Miriam answered them, Sing ye to Jehovah, for he hath triumphed gloriously; The horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. We are taught to worship, praise and pray with hands lifted up to the Lord: {Psa.63:4} So will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name. {1Ti.2:8} I desire therefore that the men pray in every place, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and disputing. {Lam.3:41} Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens. {Neh.8:6} and Ezra blessed Jehovah, the great God. And all the people answered, Amen, Amen, with the lifting up of their hands: and they bowed their heads, and worshipped Jehovah with their faces to the ground. Why lifting up hands? Offering our hands to the Lord for His works and to conquer His enemies: {Exo.17:9} And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to-morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand. {10} So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. {11} And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. {12} But Moses' hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; And his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. {13} And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. We raise our hands in praise when we grieve over sin or bondage to conquer these enemies: {1Ki.8:38} what prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, who shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house: {2Ch.6:29} what prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, who shall know every man his own plague and his own sorrow, and shall spread forth his hands toward this house: {30} then hear thou from heaven thy dwelling-place and forgive, and render unto every man according to all his ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of the children of men.) We worship and praise to break the curse: {Exo.9:29} And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto Jehovah; the thunders shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest know that the earth is Jehovah's. Humbling oneself is a part of worship. {Rev.4:8} and the four living creatures, having each one of them six wings, are full of eyes round about and within: and they have no rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come. {9} And when the living creatures shall give glory and honor and thanks to him that sitteth on the throne, to him that liveth for ever and ever, {10} the four and twenty elders shall fall down before him that sitteth on the throne, and shall worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and shall cast their crowns before the throne, saying, {11} Worthy art thou, our Lord and our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power: for thou didst create all things, and because of thy will they were, and were created. Again, Praise in Hebrew is "Hallal", meaning to brag on the Lord. This could be to give credit or ascribe to the Lord: {Psa.29:1} Ascribe unto Jehovah, O ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength. {2} Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name; Worship Jehovah in holy array. Confession of sin and God's grace and mercy in worship is needed for His favor. It's good to confess all sins before a worship and praise session: {Neh.9:1} Now in the twenty and fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, and with sackcloth, and earth upon them. {2} And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all foreigners, and stood and confessed their sins, and the iniquities of their fathers. {3} And they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of Jehovah their God a fourth part of the day; and another fourth part they confessed, and worshipped Jehovah their God. {4} Then stood up upon the stairs of the Levites, … [and] said, Stand up and bless Jehovah your God from everlasting to everlasting; and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise. {6} Thou art Jehovah, even thou alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all things that are thereon, the seas and all that is in them, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee. An offering of service is worship: {Heb.12:28} Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service (sometimes translated as worship) well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe: {29} for our God is a consuming fire. {Rom.12:1} I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service (sometimes translated as worship). {2} And be not fashioned according to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Notice that worship should be a sacrifice of flesh: Worship is an active response to the character, words and actions of God, initiated by His revelation and enabled by His redemption, whereby the mind is transformed (e.g. belief, repentance), the heart is renewed (e.g. love, trust), and actions are surrendered (e.g. obedience, service), all in accordance with His will and in order to declare His infinite worthiness. In both Hebrew and Greek, there are two categories of words for worship. The first is about body language that demonstrates respect and submission; to bow down, to kneel, to prostrate oneself. The second is about doing something for God that demonstrates sacrifice and obedience; to offer, to serve.   Biblical words for worship in Hebrew shâchâh Strong's Concordance #7812 This term literally means to depress or prostrate oneself, and is translated in the King James Version of the Old Testament as "worship" (100 times), "bow down" (54 times), "do obeisance" (9 times), "do reverence" (5 times), "fall down" (Psa 72:11; Isa 45:14;), "crouch" (1 Sam 2:36), "humbly beseech" (2 Sam 16:4), or "make to stoop" (Pro 12:25). âbad Strong's Concordance #5647 This term literally means to work in any sense, but by implication to serve or enslave. It is used more than 250 times in the Old Testament, most often translated as "serve" and 31 times in conjunction with shâchâh (see above). However, three times the translators of the ESV chose the word "worship" (2 Sam 15:8; Psa 102:22; Isa 19:21). Some foolishly believe that self-control prohibits freedom to worship in a Biblical way. But self-control stops the flesh from hindering freedom to worship. The flesh does not want to worship, therefore you must buffet it: {1Co.9:24} Know ye not that they that run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? Even so run; that ye may attain. {25} And every man that striveth in the games exerciseth self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. {26} I therefore so run, as not uncertainly; so fight I, as not beating the air: {27} but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected. Actions are surrendered in worship to the Holy Spirit but the flesh doesn't like to worship. At a Pentecostal-type church in Louisiana, the congregation would run around the auditorium and praise the Lord and shout to the Lord with great freedom. Sometimes the whole church would be running around praising the Lord. Now I'm not making any laws here for an an order of worship. A lot of people told me the church was carnal because they did that in the flesh.   When I went there just to see what was going on, I had the distinct impression that the Lord wanted me to go against my flesh and "buffet my body", and my shyness, and to crucify it. It didn't matter to me that they might not begin in the Spirit, it mattered that they would crucify their flesh, and I wouldn't. It is of the Spirit that we put to death our flesh which doesn't want to worship God boldly. They had a couple of rooms in that building, and all the men would go in one room, and all the women in the other room, and they would turn down all the lights. Then they would run up and down in the room, praising and worshiping the Lord. I went in there and I just decided I was going to put my flesh to death and I started running and jumping up and down with them praising the Lord. I discovered that it was good for me, because even though I didn't start it in the Spirit, I was doing it against the flesh. It was really a blessing to me for it freed me up to not worry what others thought. In another Pentecostal Church I experienced freedom to worship. I saw some tremendous miracles there. In their big auditorium, this guy jumped up on the front pew and took off running on the backs of the pews with his eyes closed. He ran the length of the auditorium as fast as he could, from pew to pew, with his eyes closed. There was a balcony in the back and I was sitting right where the balcony came down, so I saw that his eyes were solidly closed. He ran up to the balcony and just before he bashed his head into it, he gracefully ducked and kept on running. That could only have been done in the Spirit. Then there was released in the church a wave of excitement and freedom and joy in worship. They had another lady who was moved to dance going backwards. She would dance as she intermittently bowed down all the way to the floor, running backwards, not seeing where she was going. She would run backwards down the stairs of the choir, all the way around the auditorium, never bumping into a thing, and then all the way back up. That was in the Spirit. I saw people jump out of the choir loft, land on the other side of the altar, and run at top speed around the corners of the pews without ever slowing down. The whole congregation would just bust loose in praise when somebody would do that. It reminded me a David dancing before the Lord in worship. When the Spirit hit one man, he'd jump off the choir loft, clearing  the altar in one leap, and take off running when he landed on the floor. I would watch him running down one side, and by the time I turned my head the other way, he was coming up the other side. One day I saw him run down the isle with his eyes closed, jump over a small child who was playing in the aisle. He never broke stride and kept on running. That's definitely what we would call "in the Spirit". It just excited everyone in the building to worship and praise the Lord. We need to humble ourselves; we need to come against our flesh so that we won't worry about what other people around us are thinking. God expects us to worship Him in front of other people, just as this verse says. (Mat.10:32) Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven. We need to break loose in the Spirit and worship. (Joh.4:23) But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth: for such doth the Father seek to be his worshippers. (24) God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship in spirit and truth. As we have seen, if you start worshipping freely, it will make it easier for the other person to do it, too. I'm not necessarily talking about jumping pews, but you have to start going against your flesh. (Rom.8:6) For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace: (7) because the mind of the flesh is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can it be: (8) and they that are in the flesh cannot please God. Your flesh is the enemy of God; it is the oppressor, you have to put it to death. David's wife chastised him for worshipping in dance but he rebuked her. We have seen Jesus, the Holy Spirit in the form of fire, and big angels join us in worship and study here at UBM. We have seen Jesus lay hands on people more than once when we were worshipping. When I was young in the Lord, outside LSU College campus we had a place of Bible study and worship for the students. I have personally witnessed the glory cloud of the Lord's presence enter from the center of the room there when the people were lost in worship. {Exo. 33:9} And it came to pass, when Moses entered into the Tent, the pillar of cloud descended, and stood at the door of the Tent: and Jehovah spake with Moses. {10} And all the people saw the pillar of cloud stand at the door of the Tent: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man at his tent door. Hallel-ujah is translated Praise Ye the Lord but this is a command and doing praise is more than repeating this command. Lets look at this. As we saw, praise is the Hebrew word Hallel: meaning: To brag or boast about… and is applied to stating who the Lord is with all His attributes and His works for us which are finished.  We who see the end from the beginning and walk by faith should praise Him for what we dont yet see in the physical realm. Psa 149:1-9  Praise ye Jehovah is from “Hallelujah", so how does he want us to praise Him? Sing unto Jehovah a new song, And his praise in the assembly of the saints. 2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made  him: Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. 3 Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises unto him with timbrel and harp. 4 For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people: He will beautify the meek with salvation. 5 Let the saints exult in glory: Let them sing for joy upon their beds. 6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand; Praise defeats the enemy. 7 To execute vengeance upon the nations, And punishments upon the peoples; 8 To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron; 9 To execute upon them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints. Praise ye Jehovah. - So Hallelujah! Let us Praise the Lord for draining the swamp in Church and Government. Praise defeats the enemy. Psa 8:2-6 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength, (In Mat 21:16 strength is replaced with praise.)  Because of thine adversaries, That thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. ... 6 Thou makest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; Thou hast put all things under his feet:  As also says Hebrews but the people don't believe it with their heart. Look, Jesus is saying, “establishing strength” is by perfected praise. And what was this perfected praise that was directed at Jesus? Hosanna!  This means in Hebrew: “Save we pray”. We have discovered that “save” in the Greek is “sozo” and means much more than people know. It is used of being saved, being healed, being delivered from demons, delivered from catatrophes, etc. The noun “Soteria” means all my needs supplied like a little child. So “Hosanna” is “perfect praise” that acknowledges Jesus as the saviour in all things and it establishes His strength to save. Here are verses we've recently received in our morning meeting by faith at random: Psa 27:1-6 A Psalm of David. Jehovah is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? Jehovah is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? 2 When evil-doers came upon me to eat up my flesh, Even mine adversaries and my foes, they stumbled and fell. As Psa 149 shows praise conquers our enemies, spiritual and physical. 3 Though a host should encamp against me, My heart shall not fear: Though war should rise against me, Even then will I be confident. Jehoshaphat's army followed the praisers into battle against 3 armies which fell before them without a weapon raised. 4 One thing have I asked of Jehovah, that will I seek after: That I may dwell in the house of Jehovah all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of Jehovah, And to inquire in his temple. 5 For in the day of trouble he will keep me secretly in his pavilion: In the covert of his tabernacle will he hide me; He will lift me up upon a rock. Father will protect and hide us from our enemies. 6 And now shall my head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me; And I will offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto Jehovah. And Psa 22:1-5 A Psalm of David. My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? 2 O my God, I cry in the daytime,  but thou answerest not; And in the night season, and am not silent. 3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. 4 Our fathers trusted in thee: They trusted, and thou didst deliver them. 5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: They trusted in thee, and were not put to shame. So the Lord inhabits our praises to deliver us from our enemies, spiritual and physical. Think about that! PTL! Psa 22:22-31 I will declare thy name unto my brethren: In the midst of the assembly will I praise thee. 23 Ye that fear Jehovah, praise him; All ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; And stand in awe of him, all ye the seed of Israel. Notice: We glorify Him by declaring His name in praise. Name in Hebrew and Greek means nature, character and authority. And we praise Him like this “in the midst of the assembly”, which is the easiest place to praise Him. When we look at scripture we see they declared the Word, who is Jesus, to the greater assembly of the lost sheep of Israel also, and then to the lost world of Gentiles. We must do the same. It is a precedent in scripture. Did you see the Hezekiah Walker video where they praised God on the streets and bystanders joined in? Remember our missionaries in prayer and warfare who declare His salvation in the midst of hateful people. Continuing with Psa 22:24 For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; Neither hath he hid his face from him; But when he cried unto him, he heard. 25 Of thee cometh my praise in the great assembly: I will pay my vows before them that fear him. 26 The meek shall eat and be satisfied; They shall praise Jehovah that seek after him: Let your heart live for ever. 27 All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn unto Jehovah; And all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee. 28 For the kingdom is Jehovah's; And he is the ruler over the nations. So God is big enough to bring this to pass. 29 All the fat ones of the earth shall eat and worship: All they that go down to the dust shall bow before him, Even he that cannot keep his soul alive. 30 A seed shall serve him; It shall be told of the Lord unto the next generation. 31 They shall come and shall declare his righteousness Unto a people that shall be born, that he hath done it.  And shall we not do the same? 1Ch 16:35  And say ye, Save us, O God of our salvation, And gather us together and deliver us from the nations, To give thanks unto thy holy name, And to triumph in thy praise.  Triumph means to celebrate the victory and you can do this by faith before you see the victory. Do you know what a scriptural precedent is? It means if they did it in the New Testament you have a precedent and you should do it too. Did God heal or deliver you? Give Him praise and the people will do the same. Luk 18:43  And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God. You can share your testimonies and others will get faith. Luk 19:37  And as he was now drawing nigh, even at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they had seen.  Shall we do the same! Rom 15:9  and that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, Therefore will I give praise unto thee among the Gentiles, And sing unto thy name…. 11  And again, Praise the Lord, all ye Gentiles; And let all the peoples praise him. Heb 13:15  Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name. Jas 5:13  Is any among you suffering? let him pray. Is any cheerful? let him sing praise. Rev 19:5  And a voice came forth from the throne, saying, Give praise to our God, all ye his servants, ye that fear him, the small and the great. Lets do it!    Vision of the Power of Praise Matt Ezell - 9/9/22 I wanted to share a vision I had of Chuc sitting next to Matt Stewart. (This came to pass. After this dream when we came together for our meeting, Chuc and Matt were sitting together; which was not the usual seating arrangement. So when I shared this dream in our meeting, everyone laughed because that is exactly how it happened.) I couldn't tell the exact location but they were up in front leading worship. (This is talking of leading worship to the larger internet assembly.) Chuc was plugging in a common wire to a capacitor. Then the vision ended. In the field of heating and air capacitors are used to give power to the compressor and fan of an air conditioning unit. They give the initial boost for the compressor and fan to start and then they help them maintain that power so that it will continue to run. The common wire is what connects the capacitor to the main power source of the unit. I immediately understood what the Lord was saying, which is what He's been showing us, in that we would be greatly empowered through our worship of Him. I sought a verse concerning this vision and got Psalm 105:24, He increased His people greatly, And made them stronger than their enemies. - Praise the Lord! Today if you will receive your salvation, healing, deliverance and provision claim it and speak it out of your mouth and praise Him for it and you will have it according to our Jesus. Mar 11:23-24 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou taken up and cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he saith cometh to pass; he shall have it. 24 Therefore I say unto you, All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.   Select Language Afrikaans Albanian Amharic Arabic Armenian Assamese Aymara Azerbaijani Bambara Basque Belarusian Bengali Bhojpuri Bosnian Bulgarian Catalan Cebuano Chichewa Chinese (Simplified) Chinese (Traditional) Corsican Croatian Czech Danish Dhivehi Dogri Dutch Esperanto Estonian Ewe Filipino Finnish French Frisian Galician Georgian German Greek Guarani Gujarati Haitian Creole Hausa Hawaiian Hebrew Hindi Hmong Hungarian Icelandic Igbo Ilocano Indonesian Irish Italian Japanese Javanese Kannada Kazakh Khmer Kinyarwanda Konkani Korean Krio Kurdish (Kurmanji) Kurdish (Sorani) Kyrgyz Lao Latin Latvian Lingala Lithuanian Luganda Luxembourgish Macedonian Maithili Malagasy Malay Malayalam Maltese Maori Marathi Meiteilon (Manipuri) Mizo Mongolian Myanmar (Burmese) Nepali Norwegian Odia (Oriya) Oromo Pashto Persian Polish Portuguese Punjabi Quechua Romanian Russian Samoan Sanskrit Scots Gaelic Sepedi Serbian Sesotho Shona Sindhi Sinhala Slovak Slovenian Somali Spanish Sundanese Swahili Swedish Tajik Tamil Tatar Telugu Thai Tigrinya Tsonga Turkish Turkmen Twi Ukrainian Urdu Uyghur Uzbek Vietnamese Welsh Xhosa Yiddish Yoruba Zulu Powered by Translate Printer-friendly version

Background Material On The Psalms Having examined some of unique characteristics of Hebrew poetry in general, let's now focus on the book of Psalms itself... The Origin Of The Word "Psalm" a.)‘Mizmor'  is the  Hebrew word for PSALMS & means melody (music), or songs (words –poetry with/without Music)…Ps. 67 & 68…used 57 times…used in Praise & Worship..From a root  word meaning to ‘prune or cut off' ..thus speaks of a composition that cuts off all else, is simple & to the point The Greek word is "psalmos", from the Hebrew word "zmr" meaning "to pluck"; i.e., taking hold of the strings of an instrument with the fingers. It implies that the psalms were originally composed to be accompanied by a stringed instrument. "Psalms are songs for the lyre, and therefore lyric poems in the strictest sense."(Delitzsch, Psalms, Vol. I, p. 7) David and others therefore originally wrote the Psalms to be sung to the accompaniment of the harp. In New Testament worship, we are told to sing the psalms to the accompaniment of the heart: "...in psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord" (Ep 5:19) The phrase, "making melody," comes from the Greek word "psallontes" (literally, plucking the strings of). Therefore, we are to "pluck the strings of our heart" as we sing the psalms (i.e., to sing with emotion). b)Tehillium  There is NOT a Hebrew Title for the Book of Psalms that encompasses all of the Psalms…Many Psalms (2 out of 3) had individual Titles. Probably the most common Title was ‘Tehillium' ( used of Ps. 96 + 30 other Psalms) …The root  of Tehillium is ‘Hallal'(Hallelujah) or ‘Praise'…literally means to show, be brilliant, be clear(SHINE)……Point: As we Praise God we begin to see things more clearly than any other timeJ!   There is NOT a Normal TITLE For the Book of Psalms in its entirety, about a 116 of the 150 Psalms were given each an individual ‘TITLE' or inscription showing it was intended for a specific Instrument or Chief Musician ‘UPON' means theme ,occasion, object of attention, could also mean the type of instrument used ‘OF' = Author ‘FOR' = Whom the Psalm was directed to for use or attention(Ps.72,84) BREAKDOWN of Titles: 52 had simple title of ‘A Psalm of David', 14 had Historical Titles( ex. When David fled from His enemies) 4 Tiles listed a specific purpose like for Sabbath day,15 Had a Degree , 31 had special & unique inscriptions No paragraphs in Hebrew so had to decide beginning of next Psalm Some TITLES… MICHTAM(Mik-tam)  Meaning “To Teach”,also suggests engraving on tablets, alluding to the 12 tribes engraved on precious stones on the breast plate of the High Priest, signifying Israel was His special Treasure engraved upon  God's Heart… Psalm 16,56,57,58,59,60 SHIGGAION,SHIGIONOTH Means Obscure, wild , rhythmic song & dance, ‘Moffatt' says of this title, means a song of irregular form; wild & vehement in character,' they were beside themselves as they danced', A reaction to a heavy anointing of the Spirit of the Lord, dancing , praising , shouting, singing with unrestraint… see David in II Sam. 6:16..Psalm 7, Hab. 3:1 Shoshannim Means ‘Lilies or Choice Ones' 45,69,80 MASCHIL (Mas-kil) Means Instruction & also alludes to skillful singing & playing  Psalm32,42,44,45,52,53,54,55,74,78,88,89,142 JEDUTHUN Means ‘A Choir of Praise' Jeduthun was formerly Ethan..A Levite  one of the three masters of music appointed by David. (1 Chr. 16:41, 42; 25:1-6) His office was generally to preside over the music of the temple service. They set up a perpetual order of praise & worship in the Temple…Through their singing & playing of instruments God was glorified & spoke prophetically to His people(II Chron 25:1)…PSALM 39,66,77 LEANNOTH Ellicot says of this title..a very perplexing meaning …it encompasses sickness, distress, sadness, afflictions…played or sung in a melancholy dirge , had to do with repentance & humbling of oneself..Psalm 12,13,88,53,14..Hos.5:3-15,6:1-3, Isa. 1:4-9 Deut.32:26-36 SHUSHAN-EDUTH _Means ‘Lily of Testimony' or ‘Lily of Speech'…a beautiful song of worship or Praise Psalm 60 HIGGAION means thought, reflection, meditation, solemn sound(identical to Selah) Psalm 9,19,92 SELAH IS Not a Title, yet this word is found 71 times throughout the PSALMS….means a Pause also means ROCK SHIR means to stroll or skip along in song found in 30 Titles ALL These Speak of JESUS     3.)      The History Of The Psalms The oldest of the Psalms originate from the time of Moses (1400 B.C.). We have three psalms penned by Moses: Exo 15:1-15 - a song of triumph following the crossing of the Red Sea Deut 32, 33 - a song of exhortation to keep the Law after entering Canaan Ps 90 - a song of meditation, reflection, and prayer After Moses, the writing of Psalms had its "peaks" and "valleys"... In David (1000 B.C.), the sacred lyric attained to its full maturity. With Solomon, the creation of psalms began to decline; this was "the age of the proverb." Only twice after this did the creation of psalms rise to any height, and then only for a short period: under Jehoshaphat (875 B.C.) and again under Hezekiah (725 B.C.). The Authors Of The Psalms David - Commonly thought to be the author of the book of Psalms, but he actually wrote only about seventy-three (73), less than half. David's experiences can be found in the Psalms, yet NOT HIS alone. Asaph - The music director during the reigns of David and Solomon (1 Chr 16:1-7). He wrote twelve (12) psalms. The Sons of Korah - These were Levites who served in the Temple (1 Chr 26:1-19). They wrote twelve (12) psalms. Solomon - At least two (2) psalms are attributed to him (Ps 72, 127). That he wrote many more is stated in 1Ki 4:29-32. Moses - As indicated above, he wrote the earliest psalms; one is included in Psalms (Ps 90). Heman - Contemporary with David and Asaph, and is known as "the singer" (1Ch 6:33). He wrote one psalm (Ps 88) that has been preserved. Ethan - A companion with Asaph and Heman in the Temple worship (1 Chr 15:19). He wrote one psalm (Ps 89). Anonymous - The authorship of forty-eight (48) of the psalms is unknown.                 4.)  The Arrangement Of The Psalms The Psalms were originally collected into five "books", apparently according to the material found within them...some say each ‘book' coincides with the 5 books of the  TORAH Book I (Ps 1-41) emphasizes how God is besideus.(Ps.1,Ps. 23,,dox.=Ps.41:13) Book II (Ps 42-72)emphasizes how God goes beforeus (Ps. 51)(dox. 72:19) Book III (Ps 73-89) reminds us that God is all aroundus.(Ps. 78 Asaph, God was w/Isr. Thruout their History )(dox. Ps.89:52) Book IV (Ps 90-106) focuses on how God is aboveus.(Moses Man is finite, God is Eternal) (dox. 106:48) Book V (Ps 107-150) the spotlight is on how the God is among (Ps. 128 How a man who fears God is Blessed by God) (dox. 150:1-6) The Psalms can also be arranged into chief "groups"... Alphabetic or Acrostic - These psalms have lines which in Hebrew start with words whose first letters follow a certain pattern. For example, in Ps 119 the first eight lines start with words beginning with the Hebrew letter ALEPH, the second eight lines with words beginning with BETH, etc. This may have been done to aid in the memorization of the psalm. Ethical - These psalms teach moral principles. A good example is Psa 15. Hallelujah - These are psalms of praise, beginning and/or ending with "hallelujah" or "praise Jehovah". Ps 103 is one such example. Historical - Psalms which review the history of God's dealings with His people. A good sample would be Ps 106. Imprecatory - These psalms invoke God to bring punishment or judgment upon one's enemies. Consider Ps 69 as an example. Messianic - Psalms pertaining to the coming Messiah. For example, look at Ps 2 or Ps 110. Penitential - These are psalms expressing sorrow for sins that have been committed. A classic example is David's psalm in Ps 51. Songs Of Ascent (or Songs Of Degrees) - These psalms were possibly sung by pilgrims on the way to Jerusalem to observe the feasts. They are grouped together as Ps 120-134. Suffering - These psalms are cries of those suffering affliction. Psa 102 is a typical example. Thanksgiving - Psalms of grateful praise to Jehovah for blessings received. For example, take a look at Ps 100. The various "styles" of the psalms can be described as... Didactic - Psalms of teaching and instruction (e.g., Ps 1). Liturgical - Responsive readings, for use in special services (e.g., Ps 136). Meditation - The ancient Hebrews were given to meditation, which spirit finds expression in many of the psalms (e.g., Ps 119). Praise and Devotion - Psalms of joyful praise (e.g., Ps 148). Prayer and Petition - Psalms which were sung in an attitude of prayer (e.g., Ps 51). The Music of The Psalms…. King David chose Chief Musicians & Their sons to give forth music in the Temple CHIEF MUSCIANS.. Asaph,  Hemen,  Jeduthun(also called Ethan) I Chronicles 25:1-7   David, together with the commanders of the army, set apart some of the sons of Asaph, Heman and Jeduthun for the ministry of prophesying, accompanied by harps, lyres and cymbals. Here is the list of the men who performed this service: 2 From the sons of Asaph: Zakkur, Joseph, Nethaniah and Asarelah. The sons of Asaph were under the supervision of Asaph, who prophesied under the king's supervision. 3 As for Jeduthun, from his sons: Gedaliah, Zeri, Jeshaiah, Shimei,[a] Hashabiah and Mattithiah, six in all, under the supervision of their father Jeduthun, who prophesied, using the harp in thanking and praising the Lord. 4 As for Heman, from his sons: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shubael and Jerimoth; Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti and Romamti-Ezer; Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir and Mahazioth. 5 (All these were sons of Heman the king's seer. They were given him through the promises of God to exalt him. God gave Heman fourteen sons and three daughters.) 6 All these men were under the supervision of their father for the music of the temple of the Lord, with cymbals, lyres and harps, for the ministry at the house of God. Asaph, Jeduthun and Heman were under the supervision of the king. 7 Along with their relatives—all of them trained and skilled in music for the Lord—they numbered 288.

Don't I beg you, only hear the message, but put it into practice; otherwise you are merely deluding yourselves. The man who simply hears and does nothing about it is like a man catching the reflection of his own face in a mirror. He sees himself, it is true, but he goes on with whatever he was doing without the slightest recollection of what sort of person he saw in the mirror. But the man who looks into the perfect mirror of God's law, the law of liberty (or freedom), and makes a habit of so doing, is not the man who sees and forgets. He puts that law into practice and he wins true happiness.

Things That Hinder the Bride's Maturity(Audio)David Eells - 7/10/22Satan Reads Minds & Inserts Thoughts David Eells I was asked this question: Can you substantiate in Scripture where it is written that Satan can put thoughts into our minds? My answer was: In order for Satan to put thoughts into our mind he would also have to be able to read our minds. I will try to explain this in a moment but first you might want to entertain another question: Can anyone substantiate with Scripture that Satan cannot put thoughts into our mind or read our mind? Since we can't do this then we shouldn't believe it because it is not Scriptural. (1Ch.28:9)... The Lord searcheth all hearts, and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts... In the spirit realm thoughts are audible to the mind of God and demons. God and demons can in turn impart the gift to read minds. I have read the thoughts of men by the Holy Spirit. A man once asked me if I knew what he was thinking. At that moment the Holy Spirit gave it to me and for several minutes the man was awed at the power of God.  Also when I first went to a full gospel Church I witnessed Christians exorcising a demon-possessed man who thought he was a woman. He also demonstrated the ability to read minds when the unbelieving Christians asked for a demonstration. He did say that it was easier to read the mind of one person there and pointed to the only person there who was not filled with the Spirit even though he did not know anyone there. Familiar spirits or spirits of divination in magicians, wizards, mediums, etc. have demonstrated the power to read minds in front of audiences of people. We wrestle with principalities and powers in the mind. {Eph.6:11} Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. {12} For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual [hosts] of wickedness in the heavenly [places].... {17} And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. We see here that with the renewed mind of the Word our thoughts are guarded as with a helmet because we wont accept foreign thoughts. We are then able to take back our thoughts and cast the enemy's thoughts down. {2Co.10:3} For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh {4} (for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the casting down of strongholds), (The principalities and powers hold the strongholds in the thoughts of the mind.) {5} casting down imaginations (thoughts), and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. We win the battle by rejecting the enemy's thoughts and replacing them with God's thoughts. We are at peace with God when we are full of His thoughts and our minds are guarded from the demonic attacks that cause outward actions of sin. {Php.4:6,7} In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Satan is able to insert thoughts within our thoughts. {Act.5:3} But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thy heart to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back [part] of the price of the land?  {1Ch.21:1} And Satan stood up against Israel, and moved David to number Israel. Now here we can use a little Holy Spirit reasoning. How could Satan insert thoughts unless he knows the context of your thought? If you went into your computer to edit a program, how could you insert the right codes unless you could read the context of the computer's program? If you just inserted a code anywhere without knowing the program you would make a nonsensical statement and anyone would know that someone inserted something that was out of place. So it is with us. If Satan or demons inserted something nonsensical into our thoughts then everyone would know that they are at work. They do their best work undercover and they know it. How would Satan be able to tempt us if he was so dysfunctional? We would know it was him immediately. How then would it be temptation? Now here is the really important thing. Our battle does not depend on whether the enemy can read our mind or not. It depends on what he can do about what we know. When we read Job we clearly see that God has put restrictions on the Satan's ambitions for Job. Satan has to obey God's rules of engagement even when he knows what we think. Satan admits he did not have the power to get at Job because of God's hedge and the same is true of us. (Job.1:9) Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for naught? (10) Hast not thou made a hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath, on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.  It is not important for our thoughts to be hidden from the enemy when he can do nothing about them. And he can do nothing about our thoughts unless by them we give him permission for we have authority over him. {Luk.10:19} Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. {20} Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven. It doesn't matter what the demons know that we know for as sons of God we are their lords just as it was with Jesus. {Joh.20:21} Jesus therefore said to them again, Peace [be] unto you: as the Father hath sent me, even so send I you. {Mat.18:18} Verily I say unto you, what things soever ye shall bind (forbid) on earth shall be bound (forbidden) in heaven; and what things soever ye shall loose (permit) on earth shall be loosed (permitted) in heaven. Faith permits the sovereignty of God to be manifest through the body of Christ and forbids Satan no matter what he knows of our thoughts. Jesus' condition for receiving His benefits are plain: "As thou hast believed, [so] be it done unto thee" and "According to your faith be it done unto you" and "Thy faith hath made thee whole". As we believe, God's benefits will be given. Unbelieving thoughts and actions forbid God's benefits to us because He has made a condition and He cannot lie.  Unbelief permits Satan to continue administering the curse. (Mk.6:5) And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. (6) And he marvelled because of their unbelief. Even Jesus was forbidden to do mighty works for those who would not believe. Whether we know it or not, we are constantly forbidding or permitting Satan, demons, and God's angels by our thoughts, words and actions. Since all authority in heaven and earth was given to Jesus and He in turn delegated it to disciples, where does Satan get his authority? He gets it from our unbelief, words and disobedience. Adding to or taking from God's Word in thought and deed permits the curse by Satan and forbids God's blessings for us or through us. This is by God's design to motivate us to come into agreement with Him. (Rev.22:18) I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, if any man shall add unto them, God shall add unto him the plagues which are written in this book (19) and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book. So in coming into agreement with God we forbid Satan to administer the curse to us. So to win this battle we have to cast down the thoughts of Satan that are sent to get us to give him permission to destroy us. 2Co 10:3-5  For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh  4  (for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the casting down of strongholds),  5  casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Many think that the reason God gives the gift of tongues is so that Satan cannot understand what we say to God and his purposes will be thwarted. This is false. Satan and his fallen angels are much smarter than Christians give them credit. They certainly know the "tongues of men and of angels" or they couldn't communicate with one another and put thoughts in our heads. {1Co.13:1} If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.  When prophecy is uttered in one's own language the mind, doctrine and desires are permitted to be involved in what is said and the Word is polluted as 1 Cor. 13 says, "for we know in part, and we prophesy in part". In other words, the Prophecy can be part God and part man. However, the reason we speak with tongues is so that WE will not know what we are saying and will have no carnal reason to change it. In this way it will be a pure Word of the Spirit. {Rom.8:26} And in like manner the Spirit also helpeth our infirmity: for we know not how to pray as we ought; but the Spirit himself maketh intercession for [us] with groanings which cannot be uttered (by man); {27} and he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God. Satan finds it easier to conquer us when we are distracted by vain things that have no eternal value.   The Immature and Distracted Will Miss the Bride Joe Brits - 6/26/22 (David's notes in red) Just after the meeting this morning, Father gave me this dream: (Joe is being represented as the Man-child in this dream because of his name, Joseph, which means, “Jehovah has added”. Joseph was a very clear type of Jesus, the Man-child, in the Old Testament.) I was sitting in a bus with a bunch of people who were with me. (I believe that this bus represents the larger UBM bus that we have seen in many dreams.)  A very pretty lady, who's name means, “Wished-for child” in her early 20's was sitting to my left. (She represents the Bride body who wishes and longs for the fruit of Jesus to be born in her.) I knew a brother whose name means, “Noble" was there too, but I could not see him. (Representing the Spirit of Jesus in the Man-child reformers. Jesus said to His disciples, “You are my brethren…")  The bus pulled away and the very pretty lady said to me, “Our sister is still outside”. I looked and saw that the sister, whose name means, “Youthful”, was busy on her cell phone. (This youthful sister represents the “little sister” of the Bride spoken of in Song 8:8-9. Like in Esther, The immature are not ready to be with the Bride and will miss the corporate bus because of distractions.)   I could not see her face because she was looking in another direction. (They are not focused on sanctification and the more important things of the Kingdom, hence they are looking in another direction.) I said to the very pretty lady, "We will see her again”, and I put my left arm around her to reassure her. She put both her arms around me while we drove away. (Representing the Agape Love of the Bride and Man-child.) End of dream. (The Bride will cling to the Man-child as they enter the wilderness tribulation together.) I asked the Lord for a verse by faith at random for the "very pretty lady”   and I got: Mar 9:13  But I say unto you, that Elijah is come, and they have also done unto him whatsoever they would, even as it is written of him. (This verse is speaking of John the Baptist who preceded and prepared the way for the Man-child, Jesus, in the Spirit of Elijah. Since the Man-child is born out of the Bride, then, in a type, the First Fruits Elijahs of the Bride Body will make way for the coming of Jesus in Man-child reformers in our day.) I asked the Lord for a verse by faith at random for: the “youthful" cell phone lady and I got:  Zec 1:6  But my words and my statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, did they not overtake your fathers? and they turned and said, Like as Jehovah of hosts thought to do unto us, according to our ways, and according to our doings, so hath he dealt with us. (The more we pay attention to God and His Word the sooner we will mature and come out of trouble. Psa 81:13-14  Oh that my people would hearken unto me, That Israel would walk in my ways!  14  I would soon subdue their enemies, And turn my hand against their adversaries.)    Bondages Make Victims Anonymous - 6/27/22 (David's notes in red) The dream started with me walking past a birdcage that looked like the one I have in real life. (The cage represents bondage that would keep us from escaping.) In the birdcage I saw a large black snake about 2 inches thick with something in its mouth. (The snake in the birdcage with the bird in its mouth is a warning of the enemy trying to swallow us up in their witchcraft prayers against us. Me must pray and intercede against their schemes and attacks.  Psa. 56:1-6 Be merciful unto me, O God; for man would swallow me up: All the day long he fighting oppresseth me. 2 Mine enemies would swallow me up all the day long; For they are many that fight proudly against me. 3 What time I am afraid, I will put my trust in thee. 4 In God (I will praise his word), In God have I put my trust, I will not be afraid; What can flesh do unto me? 5 All the day long they wrest my words: All their thoughts are against me for evil. 6 They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, They mark my steps, Even as they have waited for my soul.)  Then, next to the birdcage, out of the bushes, came a second yellow snake with a few thin gray stripes about the same size as the black snake. (The color yellow represents fear and cowardice and the grey stripes represent death. The faction are cowards who back bite and attack behind our backs in darkness. Psa 11:2 For, lo, the wicked bend the bow, They make ready their arrow upon the string, That they may shoot in darkness at the upright in heart. And Psa. 23:4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me. Through Satan's accusers comes much distraction and temptations such as Jesus, Joseph and David had to endure.) The snake came moving towards me. The next moment it turned around and then turned back in my direction and struck at me. (These deceivers feign and manipulate but cannot be trusted.) I tried to defend the strike with my hands. Then I woke up. I started praying in tongues, and got peace after a while. (The second snake part of the dream is explaining the first part. We are the bird. But we are delivered out of the power of darkness so we should bind these demons and pray it down.) I received a word by faith at random for this dream: Jer 30:20  Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me; and I will punish all that oppress them. (God is going to punish these snakes who are continually persecuting and oppressing the righteous.)   Spirit of Legalism Trying to Kill the Body Winnie Osegueda - 6/30/22 (David's notes in red) I dreamt that I was at my mother's apartment on the second floor of the apartment building. (The Mother Church that we are born out of.) While I was there, I had a vision of a man in a black hoodie with a knife attempting to enter and come after me to kill me. (As we will see, this man in black represents a spirit of Legalism which is often in the apostate mother Church and tries to steal our liberty in Christ to kill us spiritually. Gal. 5:4 Ye are severed from Christ, ye who would be justified by the law; ye are fallen away from grace.)  Because I had this vision, I was aware he was coming. I opened the door and could see down the steps that the man was coming into the entrance of the apartment building on the first floor. (The first floor represents our flesh nature which is closest to the earth. This is where the spirit of Legalism gains entrance. 1 Co 15:46-49 Howbeit that is not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; then that which is spiritual. 47 The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is of heaven. 48 As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. 49 And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.) I quickly ran out and left my phone behind. (Fear and legalism will sever our communications with the Holy Spirit represented by the cell phone.)  I ran up the stairs to the neighbor Wanda's house on the top third floor of the building. (Wanda means, "shepherdess; wanderer”. Jud 1:10-13 But these rail at whatsoever things they know not: and what they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, in these things are they destroyed. 11 Woe unto them! For they went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for hire, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah. 12 These are they who are hidden rocks in your love-feasts when they feast with you, shepherds that without fear feed themselves; clouds without water, carried along by winds; autumn leaves without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; 13 Wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of darkness hath been reserved forever.) I began to knock on Wanda's door to let me in; telling her that there was a man in the building with a knife coming after me. The knife the man had was straight, but curved downward at the tip with two very sharp points, shaped like an upside down letter U. It looked almost like a gutting knife. Wanda finally opened the door. We closed the door and I told her about the man with the black hoodie in the building. I told her to keep it down because she was making a lot of noise, kind of stomping and jumping a little bit, freaking out, and I didn't want the man to hear us.  All of a sudden I realized that on the left side of Wanda's apartment, where the kitchen is supposed to be was a large glass wall and sliding door. The man was right outside the sliding doors entering into the apartment. (Job 3:25 For the thing which I fear cometh upon me, And that which I am afraid of cometh unto me. ) Even though I had left my phone in my mom's apartment on the second floor, I somehow had a phone in my hand, and I attempted to dial 911. (Psa 118:5-6 Out of my distress I called upon Jehovah: Jehovah answered me and set me in a large place. 6 Jehovah is on my side; I will not fear: What can man do unto me?)  Wanda told me that she didn't think it was a good idea for me to call the police because her friend Don didn't agree with calling the police, but I called anyway. (Donald means, “World ruler”. Satan is the god of this world and doesn't want us calling on Jesus to save us out of our situations. He wants to trick us into relying on legalism and self justification for our salvation.) I saw the man bring up the knife towards Wanda and he forced her to get into his car. (If we don't fight the spirit of Legalism he will destroy us and take us away from our Savior.) I now looked over to the right of the apartment building, and the wall was gone and there was now a large opening. So I left the apartment as I was dialing 911. (We must leave the unsanctified apartment by staying in touch with the Holy Spirit who leads and guides us.) I told the police the street that I was on so that they would find me. In the meantime, I decided to hide inside a restaurant that was kind of like a diner which was on the other side of the street. (This restaurant represents the safety we have when we abide in Christ who is the Bread of Life.)  I went inside the restaurant and entered the women's restroom. (The restroom represents the process of sanctification where we rid ourselves of the spiritual waste of the flesh nature.) There were a lot of different women in there and I told them about this man in the black hoodie. All of a sudden, the women pulled out their own knives similar to the knife that the man with the hoodie had, except the handle was white, and they stepped outside to confront this man and fight him. (A multi gifted Church body is a great help to defend us from our enemies. We must fight off legalism with the sword of the Word so that he will not separate us from Christ or one another. Psa. 118:7-8  Jehovah is on my side among them that help me: Therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me. 8 It is better to take refuge in Jehovah than to put confidence in man.) As they marched out of the diner, they marched towards the right and they began to sing very loudly. (Like the praisers in Jehoshaphat's Army that defeated Israel's enemies.) Then I woke up very suddenly. I don't remember what the women were singing, but when I woke up, the song that was playing loudly in my spirit was a song that we sing sometimes at our meetings: Ah, Lord God, Thou has made the heavensAnd the earth by thy great powerAh, Lord God, Thou has made the heavensAnd the earth by Thine out - stretched armNothing is too difficult for TheeNothing is too difficult for TheeGreat and mighty GodGreat in counsel and mighty in deed Nothing, nothing, absolutely nothingNothing is too difficult for Thee  I asked the Lord for a few verses by faith at random and received:   Psalm 118:14 (14-19 for context) The Lord is my strength and song; And he is become my salvation. 15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous: The right hand of the Lord doeth valiantly. 16 The right hand of Jehovah is exalted: The right hand of Jehovah doeth valiantly. 17 I shall not die, but live, And declare the works of the Lord. 18 The Lord hath chastened me sore; But he hath not given me over unto death.  19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto the Lord.Isaiah 26:4 (2-7 in context) Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth faith may enter in. 3 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee. 4 Trust ye in the Lord for ever; for in the Lord, even the Lord, is an everlasting rock. 5 For he hath brought down them that dwell on high, the lofty city: he layeth it low, he layeth it low even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust. 6 The foot shall tread it down; even the feet of the poor, and the steps of the needy. 7 The way of the just is uprightness: thou that art upright dost direct the path of the just.Romans 4:21 (19-25 for context) And without being weakened in faith he considered his own body now as good as dead (he being about a hundred years old), and the deadness of Sarah's womb; 20 yet, looking unto the promise of God, he wavered not through unbelief, but waxed strong through faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was able also to perform. 22 Wherefore also it was reckoned unto him for righteousness. 23 Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was reckoned unto him; 24 but for our sake also, unto whom it shall be reckoned, who believe on him that raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, 25 who was delivered up for our trespasses, and was raised for our justification.   Strive to be Free Debbie Fenske - 6/27/22 (David's notes in red) Just before the evening meeting I felt I just needed to lay down and shut my eyes for a while. I did, and I began praying for our meeting. As I paused, I heard the Lord speak the word, “Liberated.” I prayed in the Spirit for only a couple moments, and then I heard the Lord say, “Strive to be liberated from all of this world's hold on you. I desire liberation for you. How I desire that all of My people desire liberation from this world. But so many hearts are not set on Me. They are bound to this world, and everything that they allow it to offer them. This world which is only a ball of matter that offers to My people nothing that matters, will soon be going down, and they will go down with it.”It was hard to hear the Lord say that. I heard a cry in His heart for His people who are so deceived and so captured by the strength of this world and all the false securities it offers them. I felt a strong sob coming up from deep in my belly, and I had to sit up on the edge of my bed and let out these great sobs, with tears.  I told Him that we so often read about His strong wrath but His mercy, peace, consolation, and Joy should also be remembered. He allowed me to feel just a tiny part of His grieving heart for His children because He knows that His grief will turn to strong wrath. He knows He will have to pour this out on those who have desired their own way; bondage to this world rather than receiving His liberation from it. (This is like the bird in the cage who was swallowed by the snake in the dream above.)   We Must Lay Down Our Idols Marie Kelton - 3/26/22 (David's notes in red) I was asking the Lord one day to send me a husband, but only when I was ready for one. Today, while I was at work, I heard the Lord say, “Why don't you lay it down?" Then the Lord gave me an open vision of Him sitting on a throne. He was wearing all white and was really huge. All I could see was his legs and His sandals. I saw myself place a little black idol, that was like a small statue of a person at His feet. I knew that the Lord was going to smash it. Then the vision ended. (The only way is, Mat 6:33 Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you.”)    Idolatry and Distractions Keep the Church Imature Joe Dobrozsi - 6/27/22 (David's notes in red) I wanted to contact you because I saw this sign again in the parking lot at work today. Last year, about three times, I saw what looked like another planet or something that seemed to cover the moon to where there was just a sliver of the moon visible. (The moon or Woman Church, cannot reflect the light of the Son/sun because the earth has come between them. i.e. The Church is looking at the earth or the worldly instead of the Son. This represents worldly idolatry or distractions keeping the Church from maturing. We have to behold the Son to reflect Him and come into His image - 2 Co 3:18) (I don't know if it's a vision or real), but every time I have seen this sign, the sun is getting ready to rise and that is something that really stands out to me the whole time. (We haven't had this many eclipses so this is a spiritual vision. We just received a dream of the immature missing the Man-child/Bride bus because of distractions. This is a good exhortation to run after Jesus because time is short to be chosen.)    Distractions Cause the Bride to Miss the Man-child  Claire Pienaar -  6/23/22 (David's notes in red) I was in a steak grill house, and I was with a group of people (This restaurant represents the fiery trials of the flesh.). The group of people were celebrating me, but I don't know why. I was given the best seats, goodie bags, and so much food and praise. I could not understand it. (These represent worldly distractions and flatteries which, as we will see, can cause the Bride to miss her appointment with the Man-child.) All I wanted was Richard, my first love (Richard was my first boyfriend, and in this dream, he and Riaan, my husband, were morphed into one character. Richard means “mighty ruler” and Riaan means “little king” so I think these men represent a corporate body of Jesus, or the Man-Child reformers.). (This is what makes her the Bride . She is always desiring to run after Jesus, her first love despite all the distractions of the world and the enemy.)  I went looking for Richard. I went to a shop where Riaan and I had once bought blue jeans and I waited there for him. (The Bride is only interested in running after Christ and walking in heavenly places, as represented by the blue jeans).    I went to find a toilet in the dream. (Riaan: The Bride is the one constantly looking to cleanse herself of all defilement, to be perfect and blemish-less for her Husband, Christ). I walked through a very hi-tech call-center to get to the bathroom. (The hi-tech call center represents a constant communication with the Holy Spirit in order to receive the convictions we need in order to repent.) (Riaan: Yes, it is the high calling of God, to be made separate, pure and holy for Him)  The toilet stalls were elevated, about one story higher than the call-center. The stalls were made from completely transparent glass, and the doors only covered my middle section… (This transparency of nakedness represents repentance and the confession of sin. 1Jn 1:9  If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. What disqualifies the wicked, is they cannot repent and confess their sins in order to be righteous. Narcissism, rejection, faction spirits put fear in people to Confess and Be delivered. And even then, some do not hold fast to the Gospel believing that Jesus took away their sins and gave them his life and so they do not mature because of double mindedness.) I walked back to the restaurant and when I realized Richard/Riaan wasn't coming, I was sad. I had missed his birthday. In the dream, the date that I had missed was the 23rd of March. (Son 5:4-6  My beloved put in his hand by the hole of the door, And my heart was moved for him.  5  I rose up to open to my beloved; And my hands dropped with myrrh, And my fingers with liquid myrrh, Upon the handles of the bolt.  6  I opened to my beloved; But my beloved had withdrawn himself, and was gone. My soul had failed me when he spake: I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.) (It seems the bride receives gifts on the Man-child's birthday. (The birthing of the Man-child ministry is when the Lord returns "as a mighty one" in the Man-child by Word and Spirit to reward the Bride but there was a delay. Isa 40:10  Behold, the Lord Jehovah will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him: Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. And Isa 62:11  Behold, Jehovah hath proclaimed unto the end of the earth, Say ye to the daughter of Zion, (the Bride) Behold, thy salvation cometh; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.)  I've just recently been reading in Esther (by faith at random), and I saw that in Esther 8:9 the same day and month in their calendar was used as the date I received in this dream of March 23rd.  Est 8:7-11  Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.  8  Write ye also to the Jews, as it pleaseth you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring; for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may no man reverse.  9  Then were the king's scribes called at that time, in the third month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews... 10  And he wrote in the name of king Ahasuerus, and sealed it with the king's ring, and sent letters by post on horseback... 11  wherein the king granted the Jews that were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that would assault them, their little ones and women, and to take the spoil of them for a prey.) Back to Claire's dream: I made a way to leave the busy restaurant that was in a shopping mall, and got up onto the roof where a friend called Suzan was with me. (The Bride keeps looking for her Beloved.) She was so loving and kind and emotionally expressive and demonstrative with much hugging and squeezing my arm in reassurance (Riaan: Suzan means lily, she represents the reassuring love of Christ the Bride experiences when she leaves the world behind and strives for the heavenly. Song 2:2  As a lily among thorns, So is my love among the daughters).  On the roof I saw a helicopter that looked like an ambulance mixed with an ice-cream truck. I was waiting to go with it when it lifted up. (What the Bride needs now is lifting up and spiritual health so as not to miss our sweet appointment. We have already received in dreams that the coming of the Lord in His Man-child is awaiting the maturity of the Bride.) The scene changed and I walked through terraced paddocks, where I saw many black little calves. I came back to my bedroom in the dream and spoke to Riaan, who was on his knees praying at the foot of the bed when I arrived in our room. He said, “it sounds like Psalm 91 protection” and he started quoting the psalm to me. (Riaan: Mal 4:2 But unto you that fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall.) (So when the helicopter/ambulance arises with the Bride she will have the Psalm 91 protection through the tribulation.)  Then I went back to the paddocks in the dream, and as I walked I knew I was getting closer to Richard/Riaan and the blue jeans.   I asked the Lord what the restaurant part of the dream represents, and received 2 Ch 6:29, (in context 29-31) what prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, who shall know every man his own plague and his own sorrow, and shall spread forth his hands toward this house: then hear thou from heaven thy dwelling-place, and forgive, and render unto every man according to all his ways, whose heart thou knowest (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of the children of men); that they may fear thee, to walk in thy ways, so long as they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.  I asked the Lord about the terraced paddocks and received by faith at random the word, “Mount Gilead” from Song 4:1 Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; Thine eyes are as doves behind thy veil. Thy hair is as a flock of goats, That lie along the side of mount Gilead. (Terracing on the side of a mountain where flocks graze makes it possible for them to rest and to feed.) I asked for another verse at random about who Richard/Riaan represents and I received Song 4:4, Thy neck is like the tower of David Builded for an armory, Whereon there hang a thousand bucklers, All the shields of the mighty men. I thought it was too close to the previous verse I received, so I asked for another verse by faith at random and received the word “Gilead” again, this time from Jer 50:19  And I will bring Israel again to his pasture, and he shall feed on Carmel and Bashan, and his soul shall be satisfied upon the hills of Ephraim and in Gilead. Besides distractions ego in the form of competitiveness holds the Bride back from maturity.    Competition Divides the Church Claire Pienaar - 12/17/21 (David's notes in red) I dreamed I was in a really dark church in a very dark city, late at night. (This represents the Babylonish apostate church system that is at the end of the Gentile Church dispensation.) The church had so many things wrong with it. It had a golden altar (Representing Idolatry) and separate places for new believers, old believers, women, children, men, and elders. (This represents the denominalizations and divisions, sects or heresies that the Bible warns about in 2 Pe 2:1 But there arose false prophets also among the people, as among you also there shall be false teachers, who shall privily bring in destructive heresies, (Heresies are a self-willed opinion that causes division) denying even the Master that bought them, bringing upon themselves swift destruction.) It was eery due to the darkness that was coming in from the outside. (The apostate Church has let the darkness of the world and its ways inside.) (Riaan: Before the coming of the Man-Child Jesus, the people of God were in darkness for hundreds of years). Some young people came in, and I thought they were going to add some life to the gathering, but they were just there to wait out the storm that was raging outside. (Many who are young in the Lord start out in apostate churches because they believe there is an escape from the world and its curses there. They either stay and die a slow spiritual death or they come out and begin seeking the Lord and truth for themselves.) I tried to get to the “main” part of the church, but the older women of the church continuously tried to get me to come with them to their “women's fellowship”. I did not want to be taught by a woman and kept on looking for a way to exit without anyone noticing, so as not to offend. (Note: In Titus it tells the older women to teach the younger women Tit 2:4-5  that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,  5  to be sober-minded, chaste, workers at home, kind, being in subjection to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. But they are not to teach doctrines which a lot of Women's fellowships do.) I noticed they took the children out of the main church and put them in a separate room away from their mothers. (We saw in Titus that the mothers are the ones who are supposed to teach their children.) There was much fussiness and fussing between the mothers, the “caregivers” and the children and I could not understand any of it. I finally found a little red umbrella and decided to go outside. I didn't care if I was going to get wet or drenched or blown away in the storm, but I had to leave. Then I woke up. (I don't think this dream is for me personally as I've not been part of any institution for a long time, and I don't really subscribe to mainline denominational stuff... but it's a good warning for others, and a call to pray for those who still need to come out. I also think the Lord showed me this dream to confirm the darkness that is befalling the current institutionalized church, as is evident from the verses I received concerning it.).  I asked the Lord for a verse by faith at random. (She received a text that speaks of the coming David Man-child reformers to bring the Church back into Biblical order.)   Psa 89:25  I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers. (In context 20-29)  I have found David my servant; With my holy oil have I anointed him: 21 With whom my hand shall be established; Mine arm also shall strengthen him. 22 The enemy shall not exact from him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. 23 And I will beat down his adversaries before him, And smite them that hate him.  24 But my faithfulness and my lovingkindness shall be with him; And in my name shall his horn be exalted. 25 I will set his hand also on the sea, And his right hand on the rivers. 26 He shall cry unto me, Thou art my Father, My God, and the rock of my salvation. 27 I also will make him my first-born, The highest of the kings of the earth. 28 My lovingkindness will I keep for him for evermore; And my covenant shall stand fast with him. 29 His seed also will I make to endure for ever, And his throne as the days of heaven. I asked the Lord for one more word by faith at random, and received Hos 13:2: And now they sin more and more, and have made them molten images of their silver, even idols according to their own understanding, all of them the work of the craftsmen: they say of them, Let the men that sacrifice kiss the calves. (This may represent the religious institutions who follow another Jesus.)   Warning of the Competitive Prophetic Spirit Garrett Crawford - 5/29/22 (David's notes in red) ...I began to tell my wife yesterday that none of the false prophets are speaking about this Nuclear event that the Lord showed me. None of them are warning of something so specific as this. They speak in vague loose language so after an event or calamity happens they can go back and say "See! I saw that! I warned of that!" But they only deceive themselves and their followers. (I want to be very clear I am not a prophet in any sense of the word) A true prophet is given specific details of events to come. Sometimes they know where and when and why.  I was telling my wife the false prophets in the church with the large audiences will be totally caught off guard by this event. It will shock them to their core, but afterwards they will surely take credit for seeing it in advance. They will scramble amongst themselves through their endless pages of vague prophetic nonsense and revisit hours of recorded speaking engagements to see what 2 or 3 lines can be strewn together to prove this was warned of. God's true prophets do not need to go to such desperate lengths. God's true prophet's words are few, prophecies are few but are etched in stone and are amazingly accurate. (Yet Many warnings in these days come from simple people with simple dreams, not from those who even promote themselves as a “prophet".) This weighed on my heart. Yes, I knew the tendencies of the false prophets but I also looked within myself with the utmost scrutiny. I cried out to Jesus saying, "Lord, search my heart. If there is any vain glory or self seeking spirit within me, reveal it and drive it from me." Revelations are not for boasting or receiving the praise of men. They are dangerous for many because the flesh loves to glory in itself and take credit for being set apart and special.  I did not want to be like the false prophets that travel from conference to conference, church to church stealing words from one another and slapping each other on the back. Yet even in this prayer my own self righteousness and pride was well at work within me. Sometimes we feel pretty good about seeing the flaws of others yet miss so much about ourselves. Many have made whole ministries of pointing out the heresies of the false church and it's leaders. All the while being completely self seeking and prideful themselves, but I digress. When I got home I was still thinking about how "no one" in the prophetic mainstream is specifically talking about this soon coming judgment. I felt like I was the only one with this understanding. I felt like a man on an island and although I knew not to go to the "false patriot prophets" as I call them. I did start to do some searching on youtube about a nuclear strike on New York City. To my surprise I did see quite a few dreams seeing pretty much the same things I saw. These weren't any of the who's who of the charismatic realm, they were nobodies like me. Just everyday people like myself with no title or authority just sharing dreams of judgment.  Some were quite amazing and detailed. I was not completely shocked as I know God always confirms things in the mouths of two or three witnesses, but I have to be honest after I watched these I felt a little unsettled within myself. I still felt something amiss in my heart. Almost like dare I say "a competitive spirit." I knew these people were not in the false prophet crowd, there was absolutely no worry there. But I felt a tinge of pride within me, I still wanted to feel like I was the only one.  I recall Elijah telling those on Mt. Carmel: I am the only one of the LORD's prophets left, but Baal has four hundred and fifty prophets. (Elijah failed to acknowledge what Obadiah had just told him earlier, "Hey there's still a bunch of prophets left in a cave, I have them hidden from Jezebel”) 1 Ki 18:3-4 Now Obadiah greatly feared the LORD, 4 for when Jezebel had slaughtered the prophets of the LORD, Obadiah had taken a hundred prophets and hidden them, fifty men per cave, providing them with food and water.   (Elijah got scared of Jezebel like everyone else and hid in a cave later.) 1 Ki 19:9  There Elijah entered a cave and spent the night. And the word of the LORD came to him, saying, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” “I have been very zealous for the LORD, the God of Hosts,” he replied, “but the Israelites have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your prophets with the sword. I am the only one left, and they are seeking my life as well.”  (Even there Elijah still maintained he was the only one doing God's will.) Everything he just said was true, except for the fact he was the only one still following God in such a horrible time of apostasy. God let him in on a little secret: "Nevertheless, I have reserved seven thousand in Israel—all whose knees have not bowed to Baal and whose mouths have not kissed him.” I think we need to realize the fact we are all nobodies, none is more special than the other. In this time in history spiritual gifts are working in us all. It's just not rare to see the Holy Spirit giving dreams and visions to people anymore. We need to get off our self-imposed isolated high horse and just be like little children: humble, happy and content. Comparison is the thief of all joy, I don't know who said that but I see it around alot and it's fitting for this exhortation. But I also want to examine something else. I feel like the prophetic has become a sport. We are just tallying points to see who got it right more times, and in the end we can add up our stats and let everyone know we hear God better than others. The most important thing we must remember is that God does not want anyone to perish. He takes no joy in the death of the wicked. He gives us these warnings to share with others so that men may repent. Death is not something to celebrate, "getting it right" is not something to relish in. Having a dream or vision come to pass means nothing if we don't have humility and a longing for men to be saved. Are we all Jonahs? Do we want to merely operate in the spiritual gifts but are far more concerned with our track record?  Ask yourself are you willing to be called a false prophet in order that men will be saved from the very judgments you have so clearly seen? If you knew that the judgment you saw and were made to proclaim would be delayed or even stopped completely would you still proclaim it? If you knew you would be called "false prophet, lying spirit or deceiver" would you still speak? Until you are ready to be hated of men God can not use you. It's his mercy that he has not ordained many of us with prophetic giftings into the office of prophet. We could simply not take the heat.  Many of us (including myself) have no idea what it means to be a prophet or apostle. They are despised by the world, hated among the majority of the Church, and often find themselves alone in a cave. They are public spectacles and objects of wrath, humiliation and scorn. Forget everything you see in the mainstream Church,You-tube, or in movies. I can assure you Satan has deceived the minds of the lost and lukewarm Christians concerning this. One thing God told me long ago, "Garrett if you see someone that has prophet or apostle before their name, they usually aren't."  I can't take credit for the understanding laid out above though. It was only after having this dream last night that God gave me some insight about what exactly was going on in my own heart:   Satan Pits Brother Against Brother Garrett Crawford - 5/29/22 (David's notes in red) In this short dream, I was dressed in purple and gold. (The uniforms are the righteous garments of the saints. The purple represents royalty, the gold represents being refined in the fire. All of God's children should be wearing purple and gold.) (Representing being dressed in royalty. God promised Abraham that out of him kings would come. We are Abraham's seed if we hold to the faith of Abraham. Gen 17:5-7 Neither shall thy name any more be called Abram, but thy name shall be Abraham; for the father of a multitude of nations have I made thee. 6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee. 7 And I will establish my covenant between me and thee and thy seed after thee throughout their generations for an everlasting covenant, to be a God unto thee and to thy seed after thee.  And Gal. 3:6-9 Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness. 7 Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham. 8 And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all the nations be blessed. 9 So then they that are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.)  I was in the uniform of the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team in an NBA arena. We were playing a game against another team. But oddly enough the other team was dressed in purple and gold too. They were also the Los Angeles Lakers. It seemed the same team was playing against themselves. (This represents a competitive, and in some cases, denominational spirit among God's elect that brings disrepute to the Name of Jesus.) I was a starter and the star on my team and I was scoring most of the points. I noticed Kobe Bryant was the only coach on the floor and it seemed he was coaching both teams. (Kobe in Hebrew is a form of Jacob which means supplanter or cunning.) Kobe Bryant's nickname was the "Black Mamba". (Representing Satan, the accuser of the brethren.) Kobe saw that I was scoring a lot of points so he substituted someone into the game. He substituted a man I went to school with named Adam Brotherton. I knew Adam was not as skilled as I was, he wasn't even a starter. (Adam Brotherton represents all our brethren in Christ who was the second Adam.)  As he came off the bench, I was not threatened by him, but then Adam began to match me point for point. Every time I scored, Adam scored. This went back and forth for sometime. I was pretty irritated and quite threatened by his ability to score just like me. When I watched Adam I saw no guile in him, jealousy or a competitive spirit. He was humble and just enjoying the game. I seemed to be playing against Adam, but Adam was simply playing the game as the game was meant to be played. He was smiling and having a good time. Then I woke up. (Scoring points is not bad, and it's not bad to be gifted. But Satan or the "Black Mamba" will use brother against brother to become competitive and often make one lose sight of just enjoying the game, that is when we start watching others too closely and insecurity sets in. Gifted Christians that know more then others will start to look down on less gifted brothers and think they are not as spiritual as them, therefore can't do the same things God has allowed them to do.  But God will humble older and more spiritual brothers by substitutes and allow these younger brothers to do things they themselves think only they can do. In the end we have to remember we are all brothers, we are all wearing purple and gold and we all play for the same team. We don't need to be competitive and threatened when God uses someone else. Satan wants us competing with each other and keeping score. There is plenty of time in the game and we all get a chance to shoot the ball at different times.)   The Bride Seeks the Prize of “High Calling of God in Christ Jesus” David Eells I've discovered that when it's really hard to turn the other cheek or to resist not him that is evil, it's usually because there is some competitive spirit, some pride, some judgment in our heart concerning the people who are coming against us. Our old man rises up, our pride rises up, that competition rises up and we want to retaliate. We don't want to bear that fiery trial; we don't want to bear that cross. But the Lord is teaching us that, when we submit to what the Word of God has to say concerning other people, our mind doesn't get stirred up emotionally against them.  Being emotionally stirred up makes it almost impossible to be obedient. The Bible tells us what we are to do concerning the “weak” brother: (Rom.14:1) But him that is weak in faith receive ye, [yet] not for decision of scruples (or “to doubtful disputations”). There are people who are weak in the faith, whose doctrine is not what ours is concerning the faith, concerning salvation, concerning the Holy Spirit and many other things.  Many times in our church life, we've been taught to judge these people, rather than do what God says, which is to receive them. (2) One man hath faith to eat all things: but he that is weak eateth herbs. (3) Let not him that eateth set at nought him that eateth not; and let not him that eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. (4) Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? to his own lord he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be made to stand; for the Lord hath power to make him stand. So Paul tells us that there are people who are weak in the Christian faith and that we're not to judge them. We're to give them the time to grow up. (10) But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or thou again, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of God. I had experiences where the Lord taught me this.  The prize itself is to be chosen as the Bride as we will see. It is important to note that the Church is not the Bride as some simplistically say, but she is chosen out of the Church. Esther, the Bride, was chosen out of all the fair virgins of the kingdom to be the Bride of one who was at that time the ”King of kings” and this after Vashti was rejected because she did not obey the King. Also in SoS, the Shulammite, meaning "perfected one", was chosen out of all the women of the kingdom. Son 6:8-9  There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, And virgins without number. 9 My dove, my undefiled, is but one; She is the only one of her mother; She is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and called her blessed; Yea, the queens and the concubines, and they praised her. Also in Psa 45 the Bride raised up the virgins to know the Lord. Jesus always taught in His parables the Jewish Marriage ceremony in which everyone was accounted for in the Church. There was the Bride, the virgins who escort her to the grooms home after the marriage feast, the friend of the Bridegroom, and those receiving the invitations. In Revelation 19, the Bride had on a glorious lampros garment, meaning not only white but glowing. There we see that those invited had on a simple leukos garment meaning white. Of course the Bride does not receive an invitation to her own marriage. What are the advantages of Being in the Bride?   They sit next to the King forever in the highest Holy of Holies like the Bride in Psalm 45. In Joel 2, as righteous Jerusalem, they escaped the beast who captured the rest of God's people in a tribulation. They conquered the Assyrian beast to save God's people. In Esther she had the Love, respect and ear of the King and brought down the beast Haman and his people to save the people of God. In SoS she raised up her little sister, the rest of the people of God, to enter the presence of the King.  In the Gospels they raised up the Church and ordained the 5 fold ministries. In Rev. 3, as the Philadelphia Church of brotherly love, they escaped the hour of trial that came on the rest of the Church and the whole world. This is not a rapture, she is supernaturally spared for she is not under the curse as we have seen. They were given the name of the New Jerusalem. She is born from heaven and God's new name was written upon them.   Select Language Afrikaans Albanian Amharic Arabic Armenian Azerbaijani Basque Belarusian Bengali Bosnian Bulgarian Catalan Cebuano Chichewa Chinese (Simplified) Chinese (Traditional) Corsican Croatian Czech Danish Dutch Esperanto Estonian Filipino Finnish French Frisian Galician Georgian German Greek Gujarati Haitian Creole Hausa Hawaiian Hebrew Hindi Hmong Hungarian Icelandic Igbo Indonesian Irish Italian Japanese Javanese Kannada Kazakh Khmer Kinyarwanda Korean Kurdish (Kurmanji) Kyrgyz Lao Latin Latvian Lithuanian Luxembourgish Macedonian Malagasy Malay Malayalam Maltese Maori Marathi Mongolian Myanmar (Burmese) Nepali Norwegian Odia (Oriya) Pashto Persian Polish Portuguese Punjabi Romanian Russian Samoan Scots Gaelic Serbian Sesotho Shona Sindhi Sinhala Slovak Slovenian Somali Spanish Sundanese Swahili Swedish Tajik Tamil Tatar Telugu Thai Turkish Turkmen Ukrainian Urdu Uyghur Uzbek Vietnamese Welsh Xhosa Yiddish Yoruba Zulu Powered by Translate Printer-friendly version

INTRODUCTION As we embark on a new work here in Moscow, we must begin by getting our thinking in line as to how God builds. History is the story of how God built His house. He didn't do a cost/benefit analysis. He built it despite all the conniving of hell & earth. He built it without outside investors. He built it at the cost of His only Begotten Son. And, as we shall see, He's now filled it with fire. THE TEXT Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles. And all that believed were together, and had all things common; And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved (Acts 2:41-47). SUMMARY OF THE TEXT As the miraculous day of Pentecost concluded, the shockwaves were only just beginning. At the end of Peter's sermon a multitude (3000 to be precise) gladly received his word and were baptized (v41); this is a callback to the first “Pentecost,” when 3000 Israelite idolaters were cut down after the Golden Calf debacle (Ex. 32:28). The early church is described in its corporate worship as being steadfast in the Apostles' teaching––the basis for their fellowship––breaking the bread, and prayers (v42). The remarkable signs & wonders continued––fulfilling the prophetic word in Joel 2:19, 30––and great awe came upon every soul (v43). Their corporate worship, daily in the temple, spilled over into the rest of life. The Believers were marked by generosity without compulsion, which manifested in a particular care for the host of sojourners in Jerusalem (vs.44-45). Not only did they gather daily in the temple, but also from house to house. The fellowship which they enjoyed through the Apostles' doctrine spilled over into a joyful singularity of heart (v46), and faithful praise to God. The fruit of their faithful diligence in formal & informal worship & fellowship was favor amongst the people. This, in turn, produced rapid growth (v47). THE GOD WHO SCATTERS The day of Pentecost is unmistakably mirroring the ancient events which took place at the Tower of Babel. Babel was man's attempt to climb into heaven to obtain a name for himself. Whereas God had tasked Adam & Eve to fill the world with His glory & name. The project of Babel was to find a unifying principle for the universe in man apart from God. So God scattered this blasphemous work. He confounded their language, fulfilling their worst fears (Gen. 11:4) of being scattering across the face of the earth. This imagery is picked up later in the warnings to Israel, when the Lord threatens them with being scattered due to covenant breaking. “And the LORD shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you (Deu. 4:27).” Israel was also to be God's means of frustrating and scattering the city of man, which we see in their battle hymn, “And it came to pass, when the ark set forward, that Moses said, Rise up, LORD, and let thine enemies be scattered; and let them that hate thee flee before thee (Num 10:35).” When man sets out to build apart from God, and in rivalry to God, God will scatter him. The Hebrew word used for “scatter” means dashing a vessel into a million shattered pieces. When man sets himself in rivalry to God the end result isn't unity, it's all the unity of a tornado in a trailer park. If Israel, the household of God, abandoned God and sought to build the kingdom apart from their Covenant King, the result would be what we find in the book of Acts: an Israel scattered to the four winds. GATHERED TOGETHER IN CHRIST The nations which are represented at Pentecost echoes the Table of Nations in Genesis 10. These Seventy nations had been scattered and frustrated in their opposition to God's redemptive purposes. Now, however, these scattered nations, represented by Jews from the Diaspora, are gathered together as one by the mighty work of the Spirit. Peter warned the Pentecost crowd to flee from this wicked generation (Acts 2:40), referring to unbelieving Israel, which itself had become a new Babel, of sorts. The Lord Jehovah who'd descended upon Altars, and the Tabernacle/Temple as a flaming fire (Cf. Gen. 15:17, Lev. 9:24, Jdg. 13:20, 1 Kg. 18:38,  1Ch 21:26, 2Ch 7:1ff), now sent His Spirit to dwell in a house of people; even people from all nations. What marked these early Christians as a result of the Spirit's working? Fidelity to the Gospel as taught by the Apostles, fellowship, breaking the bread, prayers both spoken and sung, hospitality, glad simplicity, and praise to God. This was (and is) the secret sauce to church growth. Modern Christians think they can build the kingdom of God by using the bricks of Babel. We see it in the way evangelical leaders capitulate to the talking points of godless politicians. We see it in the way worship services are turned into entertainment events. We see it in how the plain Word of the Gospel is dulled and blunted in order to nuzzle into the same space as Oprah, Dr. Phil, and the self-care counselors on TikTok. We see it in the way we ignore the plain command to show hospitality, considering it an inconvenience to our personal schedule and possessions. But God gathers people into His house by the faithful preaching of the scandal of the Gospel. The house of Israel crucified Jesus, the promised Messiah, the rejected cornerstone. But God wasn't thwarted in His purpose. That same Jesus was now exalted to be the true & eternal King of Israel. His first act was to accompany the preaching of His Kingdom with the power of the Spirit to enable His citizens to joyfully obey their King. FILLED UP TO WORK OUT The Spirit was poured out, and the people weren't idle. Just as the Spirit equipped the ancient saints with skill to build the tabernacle, the Spirit now fills His people to build a temple of people. People in whom God pleases to dwell. The Spirit's outpouring became a flood of good works: fellowship, praise, covenant faithfulness, hospitality, and simplicity of heart. So, what is the work that God has set in front of you to do? The progression of our text makes one thing plain, the Apostles' doctrine was inseparable from the practice of the saints. The Word went forth, and the people lived out the Word. The works of righteousness followed the Word of the Righteous One. Nothing, in principle, has been altered since that day of Pentecost. The description of the early church is what the true church is & always shall be defined by. Pentecost displays in vivid detail how God builds. God builds by scattering the proud and their vain imaginations. Then, just because He can, He gathers up the humble as a house of people. God then filled that house with fire. The Spirit's fire equips the saints with His presence, the presence of the Almighty. Thus we're enabled to minister in His house. God's household isn't a silent, empty cathedral; it's full of the bustle & hum of joyful saints busy with sacred work. And what is that work? Our first duty is to believe the Apostles' teaching: God has made Jesus, whom the House of Israel crucified, both Lord & Christ (Acts. 2:36). Secondly, we faithfully worship. Third, we throw the best parties.

Judá (heb. Yehûdâh, "alabanza"; aram. Yehûd; cun. Yaudu, Yahudu, y Yakudu). Por lo general, sobre la base de Gen_29:35, el nombre se explica como "sea El (Dios) alabado", pero la etimología es incierta. Cuarto hijo de Jacob con su esposa Lea (Gen_29:32-35). Se casó con una señorita cananea. Súa, con quien se había relacionado por medio de un amigo cananeo (38:1, 2). Ella le dio 3 hijos: Er, Onán y Sela (vs 3-5). Tomó como esposa para su hijo Er a Tamar, otra señorita cananea (v 6). Cuando Er murió sin hijos, Judá dio a Tamar a su hijo Onán, en armonía con la costumbre de la época (vs 7, 8). Cuando Onán murió sin dejar heredero (vs 9, 10), Tamar volvió a la casa de su padre, con la promesa de Judá de que cuando Sela llegara a la madurez le sería dado por esposo (v 11). Como Judá no cumplió su palabra, Tamar llegó a tener descendientes de Judá con engaño; tuvo 2 hijos: Fares y Zara (vs 12-30). Aunque Judá se revela como moralmente aberrante en ciertos aspectos, en muchas otras facetas de su carácter parece haber sido más ejemplar que sus hermanos. No tomó parte en la masacre de Siquem, que realizaron Simeón y Leví (cp 34), y fue él, en un intento por salvar a José, quien propuso a sus hermanos que José fuera vendido y no asesinado (37:26-28). Más tarde, en Egipto, mostró mucha nobleza de carácter cuando José, sin que fuera reconocido por sus hermanos, quiso detener a Benjamín por haber supuestamente robado la copa de plata. Judá suplicó elocuentemente en favor de su hermano menor y se ofreció como prisionero a José para obtener la liberación de Benjamín (cp 44). Cuando Jacob y su familia emigraron a Egipto, Judá fue elegido para preceder al grupo y anunciar a José la llegada de Jacob (46:28). Cuando Jacob bendijo a sus hijos en su lecho de muerte, dio a Judá las bendiciones que correspondían al primogénito (49:8-12), pasando por alto a Rubén por su pecado de incesto (v 4), y a Simeón y Leví por su matanza de los siquemitas (vs 5-7). Las profecías pronunciadas en ese momento se cumplieron más tarde. La tribu de Judá llegó a ser la más importante de todas las de Israel, y Fares, uno de los hijos de Judá fue el antepasado de David y de la casa real del reino del sur (Rth_4:18-22; 1Ch_2:3-15; 3:1-6), y de Jesús, el Salvador de la humanidad (Mat_1:3-6, 16).

Rubén (heb. Re'ûbén, "he aquí [ved, mirad] un hijo" o"mi aflicción"; gr. Rhouben). Hijo mayor Jacob y Lea (Gen_29:31 32; 35:23; 46:8;1Ch_:1; 5:1).1013 La primera mención de un hecho de su vida tiene que ver con unas mandrágoras que encontró en el campo y que Raquel deseó (Gen_30:14); luego se registra su inmoralidad con Bilha (35:22), por la que más tarde perdió la bendición paterna que le hubiera correspondido por ser el primogénito (49:3,4); más tarde, su esfuerzo por salvar a José del intento criminal de sus hermanos, al sugerir que lo echaran a una cisterna (37:21-29). Aunque no traicionó a sus hermanos ante su padre, no fue participante de su complot contra José (42:22). Posteriormente, cuando Jacob temía enviar a Benjamín a Egipto, Rubén ofreció 2 de sus propios hijos como garantía por su seguridad (v 37), En su lecho de muerte Jacob expresó el chasco que la conducta de su hijo mayor le había causado, y describió su carácter tan inestable como el agua (49:3, 4).

Immunity From “All Our Diseases” (Audio) David Eells - 11/7/21  God's Vaccine 7 Anxiety and Fear, Part 1 Psa. 103:3  Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; Who healeth all thy diseases. Folks, there are some mighty shakings of God coming (Hebrews 12:26-29). You're going to see things that you never thought you would see in this world, but the Lord doesn't want us to be troubled about it. It's all part of His plan. He is a sovereign God and He works all things after the counsel of His Own Will. (Eph.1:11) In whom also we were made a heritage, having been foreordained according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his will. And, as the Bible also says, (Joh.3:27) … A man can receive nothing, except it have been given him from heaven. God is the only One Who “doeth according to his will.” (Dan.4:35) And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? He reigns in the heavens and upon the earth. (1Ch.16:31) Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; And let them say among the nations, the Lord reigneth. So we can trust in Him.  These shakings are coming in order to bring many people into the Kingdom, and yet, we don't want to be anxious or fearful concerning these things. We want to be at peace. We want to be able to be used of God when these things happen, but we are totally useless to God if we have anxiety or fear, and the devil knows that. Yes, the devil is about to make great war on the saints but those who walk by faith, those who draw close to the Lord, those who depend upon Him even for their faith and their grace, have nothing to worry about. Through these great shakings, God is going to weed out the apostates from among His true people. Only those who have received the gift from God to want to walk with Him will remain.   You know, when Jesus sent the disciples and the seventy out, it was on-the-job training for them. The Lord showed me that this was a foretaste, a foreshadowing, of what's going to happen in our day in the beginning of the tribulation period. That's because history repeats. (Ecc.1:9) That which hath been is that which shall be; and that which hath been done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. We are coming into a great time of grace, and the Lord is going to appear. He is going to be manifested in His people. (Col.1:26) [Even] the mystery which hath been hid for ages and generations: but now hath it been manifested to his saints, (27) to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: (28) whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ. He is going to be manifested as “Christ in you, the hope of glory,” and His First-fruits are going to be able to do the same things that Jesus did in raising-up disciples, the sending forth two-by-two, and so on; all this will be repeated. Great and wondrous things are going to happen. Oh, praise the Lord! (Luk.10:17) And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject unto us in thy name. Some of you know this already, but the overwhelming majority of Christianity does not. As a matter of fact, even the overwhelming majority of God's elect don't yet know this, but they will. They will come out (Isaiah 52:11; John 10:3; 2 Corinthians 6:17), they will be led, they will be disciples, and then they will shake the world (Haggai 2:6; Acts 17:6; Hebrews 12:26-27). So the seventy were overjoyed to find out that the demons were subject to them. Jesus told His disciples, (Mar.16:17) And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons… We have been given authority over demon powers, saints, and it is a joyous thing to see people set free, but how do we defend ourselves against these demons? The attacks are coming. The warfare is about to go forth against the saints, yet God's people, those who walk by faith, will have nothing to worry about. I'd like to share with you from Luke about fear and anxiety. Of course, once the Lord has put His Word in your heart and you have some experience walking in that Word, it is very hard for fear and anxiety to come into your heart. This is what God wants to do; He wants to prepare us for the things to come. I know that some people won't be prepared. They will be shocked and they will be fearful, however, because of that fear, they will run to the Lord for refuge and then God will teach them how to walk in peace and rest. (Luk.10:18) And he said unto them, I beheld Satan fallen as lightning from heaven. (19) Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. (20) Nevertheless in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rejoice that your names are written in heaven. We see they came back rejoicing that the demons were subject to them, and then Jesus mentions that He has given them authority to tread upon “serpents” and “scorpions.” “Serpents” and “scorpions” here represent two different kinds of the spirits over which they were exercising their authority. I want to explain that to you because it has a lot of bearing on anxiety and fear and how to deal with it. First I need to point out to you that there are “serpent” spirits, but I am not going to go deep into this. I have taught on this before and I want to talk more about anxiety and fear. (Act.16:16) And it came to pass, as we were going to the place of prayer, that a certain maid having a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by soothsaying. (17) The same following after Paul and us cried out, saying, These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim unto you the way of salvation. (18) And this she did for many days. But Paul, being sore troubled, turned and said to the spirit, I charge thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it came out that very hour. A “spirit of divination” is a spirit of false prophecy, and if we look at the original Greek words there, we find that they mean a “spirit of python.” In other words, a spirit of divination is a serpent spirit, and a big one. As you know, serpents that are poisonous carry their poison in their heads. One of the reasons the Lord pointed this out to me is because serpent spirits are deceiving spirits, and so they war with your mind. False prophecy does that, along with all the other serpent spirits. They bring deception to mankind.  However, it is the second group, the “scorpions,” that I want to deal with here. Jesus said, “I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions.” “Tread” means to “put them under your feet, under your authority, under your dominion.” The word “scorpions” in the Greek, is skorpios and it's where we get our English word “scorpion.” As Jesus was making war against the demon powers, He was teaching His disciples how to make war against the demon powers. (Luk.11:17) … Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house [divided] against a house falleth. (18) And if Satan also is divided against himself, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye say that I cast out demons by Beelzebub. (19) And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? therefore shall they be your judges. (20) But if I by the finger of God cast out demons, then is the kingdom of God come upon you. Obviously, Satan does not cast out Satan; it is only the Kingdom of God that gives deliverance from Satan and his demons. (21) When the strong [man] fully armed guardeth his own court, his goods are at peace: (22) but when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him his whole armor wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils. And we know that Jesus was stronger than the “strong man.” He conquered the devil, and when He passed His authority on to His disciples, He was giving us authority over all the power of the enemy. He was dividing the spoils.  We are plundering the devil's kingdom when we preach the Gospel to someone and they believe it. When that happens, they are delivered out of the devil's kingdom and into the Kingdom of God. The same thing happens when we heal the sick, and when we cast out demons, and so on. That's our job, folks; we all have a job to do in plundering the devil's kingdom. (Luk.11:23)  He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth. We need to be on the Lord's side. He ordained us, He raised us up, and He wants us all to have a part in this. No matter where we are or what we are doing, we work for the Kingdom of God and we represent the King. We are ambassadors of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:20). We speak for Him in this world. We go forth to do His works in this world. Jesus said, (Mar.16:17) And these signs shall accompany them that believe: in my name shall they cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; (18) they shall take up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall in no wise hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. These things “shall accompany them that believe.” If you are a believer, you have a right to all the gifts of the Spirit. If you are a believer, you have a right to be doing the work of God by healing the sick, casting out devils, speaking in tongues, and so on and so forth.  “He that gathereth not with me scattereth.” I have pointed out before that the word “scattereth” here is the Greek word skorpizo, and it means “to penetrate and put to flight.” There are some small creatures that sometimes frighten people more than big creatures, and a scorpion is a very small creature, but it is frightening because people know the pain, the trouble, and the poison that can come from it. When the Israelites were going into their Promised Land, God spoke to them, saying, (Exo.23:28) And I will send the hornet before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee. A hornet is another very small creature, but it has a sting in its tail, just like the scorpion. The poison is in its tail, not in its head, and when it goes forth, it can put a lot of people to flight. Of course, God was using the hornet as a type and a shadow, in the same way He was using it here for the scorpion to penetrate and put to flight. Your defense against this is to take up (Eph.6:16) … the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil [one]. You need the shield of faith whenever you're attacked by these scorpion spirits because their job is to cause you to run, and they do a very good job of it. The Lord has taught me that certain of these scorpion spirits cause God's people to run from the battle, to give-up in the face of the enemy. Two of the big ones are spirits of anxiety and fear, but others are spirits of guilt, spirits of rejection, spirits of shame, and spirits of unbelief. They cause God's people not to take up their sword of the spirit, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and so on and so forth to conquer the enemy (Ephesians 6:10-17). Knowledge of the Word of God and understanding who we are in Christ, understanding that He has delivered us, gives us power over them. If we are not with Jesus, we are against Him. If we are not gathering with Him, then we are scattered.   Of course, if you are not plundering Satan's kingdom, that means Satan is plundering you. You can't have it both ways; it is one way or the other. The Lord has given us the victory in Jesus Christ, we know that. We know because of the Sacrifice that He gave, that we have been given victory. He said, (Joh.16:33) These things have I spoken unto you, that in me ye may have peace. In the world ye have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. Jesus conquered the devil, the evil one, He conquered sin, He conquered the curse, He conquered sickness; He conquered it all at the Cross. We have already studied the real Good News that gives us authority and power over the devil. [Editor's Note: Our book, The Real Good News, is available without charge from ubm1.org as a PDF.] We should be able to defend ourselves against the fear and anxiety that is going to attack many people when they see the judgments that are coming upon this world. It is quite normal and natural for the wicked to run and to be fearful and to be moved by what they see and what they hear, but not for us. (Pro.28:1) The wicked flee when no man pursueth; But the righteous are bold as a lion. We need to hold fast that bold faith that the Lord has given to us (Romans 3:22; Ephesians 3:12; Hebrews 10:35; etc.)  You should know that there are some things that will totally take away your defense against these demon spirits, and one of the major ones that I have seen is unforgiveness. Having unforgiveness, or one of its relatives such as bitterness or judgment toward anybody, is what delivers many of God's people over to the power of these demons. [Editor's Note: Our book, The Curse of Unforgiveness, is available without charge from ubm1.org as a PDF.] Jesus warned us, (Mat.18:34) And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due. (35) So shall also my heavenly Father do unto you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts. If we don't forgive our brother from the heart, the Father will turn us over to the tormentors until we pay our own debt. It's sad but many of God's people don't realize that they're laboring under these tormenting demons. They can't get victory, they can't overcome, they have no confidence, they have no gift of faith, yet they don't understand that it's because they're holding on to unforgiveness, bitterness, and judgment against their brothers. Jesus is not a liar. He said the Father will turn you over to the tormentors. If we want to have boldness before God, one thing that we have to do, folks, is to make sure that we have a clean conscience. (1Jn.3:21) Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God; (22) and whatsoever we ask we receive of him (Now that's a place of safety! We don't have to worry about a thing; we just ask, and God answers.), because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. In other words, we have a clean conscience. This should put the fear of the Lord in you, not the fear of anybody else. The only One we have to please is the Lord Himself. If you want to be ready for the things that are coming at you down the road, then you need to have a clean conscience because the devil is going to send in his big guns of fear and anxiety to lead the pack. Usually what happens is people see or hear something and all of a sudden, the devil is there to penetrate and to put to flight. He is there to attack. That is when we need to be full of the boldness of the Lord and realize we are dealing with the enemy. This is not our mind; this is the devil attacking our mind, trying to bring us down so that we will be totally useless in this battle.  One important thing that we have to understand is that fear is sin. Many times people think fear is a weakness in them. They think they just don't have the faith that they need, but the Bible calls this “an evil heart of unbelief.” (Heb.3:12) Take heed, brethren, lest haply there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God. And we are told, (Rev.21:8) But for the fearful, and unbelieving (So it is a sin that's thrown in there with all of the other sins.), and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part [shall be] in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. When you are tempted with fear and anxiety, you should deal with that as sin. Many people just give in to fear, but the Bible says, (2Ti.1:7) For God gave us not a spirit of fearfulness; but of power and love and discipline. When that spirit of fear comes, it is of the devil. When that spirit comes, it is in order to manipulate us and to move us to react to the situation, instead of acting according to what the Word of God says. The devil wants to put us to flight before him so that he can continue to plunder us.  (Luk.10:19) Behold, I have given you authority (That includes dominion over anxiety and fear.) to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall in any wise hurt you. We need to be bold in our faith because we have been given authority over the devil in everything and “nothing shall in any wise hurt” us. Does that verse actually mean that? Of course it does! It means that nothing shall in any wise hurt us, but that promise is only effectual when you mix it with faith (Hebrews chapters 3 and 4). (Heb.4:1) Let us fear therefore, lest haply, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you should seem to have come short of it. (2) For indeed we have had good tidings preached unto us, even as also they: but the word of hearing did not profit them, because it was not united by faith with them that heard.  We know from God's word that these shakings are going to come. (Heb.12:26) Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven. (27) And this [word], Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain. (28) Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe: (29) for our God is a consuming fire. God is going to bring down this world through these great shakings and He is going to bring shakings in the lives of His people. Events will occur that you and I have never seen on this earth. In fact, things that have never happened before are going to happen and they're going to put the fear of God in His elect. However, they're going to put the fear of the devil, the fear of the curse, and the fear of the things that are coming upon the world in the hearts of the wicked. There will be (Luk.21:26KJV) 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. Only God's elect are going to have His patience and His peace in the midst of this. I am not saying they are going to have it all of a sudden and at the beginning, but they are all going to grow into it. They're all going to understand what it is to serve the Lord. They're all going to be highly motivated because of the things that are coming upon the world.  Yes, these shakings are coming but we need to call fear and anxiety what God calls them, we need to call them “sin.” God has given us a deliverance from this, (Heb.10:14) For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. We can count on it because God has delivered us from all sin. (Joh.1:29) … Behold, the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world! Jesus took away our sin. Jesus took away fear and anxiety. We don't have to put up with it because He did that, therefore we can partake of the peace of God in the midst of great destructions upon this world. (Isa.26:3) Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed on [thee]; because he trusteth in thee. Those destructions are coming and they are coming fast and so we need to be prepared. It is a trick of the devil to immediately show up with fear and anxiety whenever something like this happens, and you need to cast it down. We are children of the King and we are here for His purpose, not for the purpose of the world. What the world is going to go through and take a penalty for, we don't have to take the penalty for because our Lord Jesus already took it. (2Co.5:21) Him who knew no sin he made [to be] sin on our behalf; that we might become the righteousness of God in him. He became cursed for us, He bore the penalty on the Cross. What should we fear? (Psa.27:1) The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? (Php.4:6) In nothing be anxious (Some versions say “careful,” however the Greek word there, merimnaó, specifically means “anxious.”); but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Since we have such authority with God, such promises from God, what is “anxiety”? It is unbelief, that's what it is. You and I do not believe that the Word of God is true whenever we give in to this temptation. It is sin, we need to look at it as sin, and we need to cast it down just like we would any other kind of sin. (Rev.21:8) But for the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part [shall be] in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. You would never think of doing some of those things that are mentioned there, but would you consider fear and anxiety to be in the same category? Would you consider them to be sin before God? Would you consider unbelief to be sin before the King? If someone is unbelieving, then they are not justified because they are not letting God be true and every man a liar (Romans 3:4). And, if they are not justified, that means their sins are not covered. So God says, “In nothing be anxious,” because He is absolutely sovereign. We truly have nothing to worry about since He has everything under control. Let's go back to the beginning of this chapter for a closer look because the Lord showed me, many years ago, a neat revelation here that He hid in the Word just for us. You know, He wants us to stand steadfast and unmovable in Him (Colossians 1:23). He doesn't want us to be moved by what we see or what we hear. You are about to hear of horrendous things in this world. You are about to see horrendous things in this world. He doesn't want us to be moved by those things at all. Just remember, we are the ones to whom God is giving a demonstration. We are the ones He wants to teach. He doesn't want to destroy us; He has good plans for us. Keep that in mind. All these promises concerning you are true, and they are true for you.  (Php.4:1) Wherefore, my brethren beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my beloved. (2) I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in the Lord. The Lord spoke to me one day when I read this. He spoke to me to go look these names up, and I did. “Euodia” means “to be successful in reaching a goal; to succeed in reaching.” “Syntyche” is just the opposite. It means “to meet with an accident.” They are opposite names here, with opposite meanings. In other words, sometimes you just walk in the success of the Lord and sometimes you meet with an accident, but the Lord is saying to be of the same mind, no matter which one you are going through. As a matter of fact, He also tells us that we should be content in either case. (Php.4:11) Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therein to be content. He says that because everything that comes to you, saints, comes to you from the Hand of God (John 3:27). He wants you to trust in Him.  (Php.4:2) I exhort Euodia, and I exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in the Lord. (3) Yea, I beseech thee also, true yokefellow, help these women, for they labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and the rest of my fellow-workers, whose names are in the book of life. Yes, they do; they labor with all of us in the Gospel, and they labor with us in our own life, and in bearing fruit and so on and so forth. Saints, God wants us to be stable and not moved up and down by our emotions, not moved by every wind of doctrine, not moved by anything that happens in the world. He wants us to be steadfast, standing on His Word like standing on a rock. In one of the first visions we received, I was shown standing on a rock with leg braces on. The interpretation is that God's external power was helping me to stand upon the Rock. I was able to stand only by His grace and power, not by any power of my own.  He said, “these women … labored with me in the gospel, with Clement also.” “Clement” means “merciful.” Jesus said, (Mat.5:7) Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. With those who will have mercy towards others, and be forgiving towards others, God will show Himself the same way. Sometimes we do much harm to ourselves in the way that we relate to others, as in the Parable of the Unforgiving Servant. (Mat.18:34) And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due. (35) So shall also my heavenly Father do unto you, if ye forgive not every one his brother from your hearts. He turns you over to the tormentors, so we need to be merciful and we need to not be moved by success or failure. (Php.4:4) Rejoice in the Lord always: again I will say, Rejoice. (5) Let your forbearance be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. (So much the more today!) (6) In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. In other words, don't worry about a thing; just lay your request before God. Remember that Jesus said, (Mar.11:24) … All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye received them, and ye shall have them.  Are we going to be anxious, or are we going to believe? As we've seen, anxiety is totally against faith and it is a sin against God (Revelation 21:8), but if you know that, you know that you can cast it down. You can put up your shield of faith, and quench that fiery dart. You don't have to let the skorpizo spirit penetrate you and put you to flight. Many people are not acting on the Word, instead, they are reacting to what the devil is doing around them. Guess what they are ruled by? If you are not ruled by faith, you are going to be ruled by fear. (Luk.11:23) He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not with me scattereth. If you want to be moved and ruled by the Lord, then remember anxiety and fear is sin. When anxiety and fear comes to people's hearts immediately after some disaster, this is the devil seeking to bring them into bondage and it must be cast down immediately.   (Php.4:7) And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. We need the peace of God in the midst of turmoil. (Isa.26:3) Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee]; because he trusteth in thee. Oh, glory to God! Keep your mind on what God has said, on what He has taught you, and cast down everything else the devil fires your way. God will keep you in perfect peace while other people are falling apart. They will be going this way while you will be going that way. You know, when you react to the devil, he's herding you in the direction he wants you to go and you're proving that you are one of his pack. If you follow him, you are one of his. You're proving who you follow by how you handle these trials that you are going through, these things that are really not “accidents,” because nothing can come into your life by accident. They are trials from the Lord that He has absolute control over, otherwise, how could He say “in nothing be anxious”? And how could He say that He works all things together for your good (Romans 8:28)? He can say that because He is in absolute control and you can trust Him. You can rest in His promises, therefore, don't let anxiety or fear affect you. Cast them down.  (Php.4:8) Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true (Who is the Truth? Jesus Christ, the Word of God, is Truth, and He promises to keep you in perfect peace if your mind is stayed on Him {Isaiah 26;3}.), whatsoever things are honorable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report… We want to believe and remember the “good report.” It doesn't make any difference what happens in the world around us. We have to hold fast to the good report. When the Israelites were moved by fear and anxiety, they cried out to God, claiming He had brought them to that wilderness to die (Numbers 21:5), which was so foolish, but you think that way when you are under the dominion of fear and anxiety. The Lord has not brought us anywhere to fail, but to teach us to be sons of God, if we will only keep our mind upon Him, upon the Word of God, upon the good report. Remember, the Israelites listened to the bad report from the spies who did not have any faith in God (Numbers 13:31-33). Their faith was in the bad report. They believed that they could not conquer that land or those giants, which in type represented the old man of the flesh (Numbers 14:2-4). (Php.4:8) Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honorable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Refuse to think on the things that are going to destroy you, or cause you to be manipulated, or cause you to be herded before the demons of the devil so that you partake of their curse. (Php.4:9) The things which ye both learned and received and heard and saw in me, these things do: and the God of peace shall be with you. Paul was telling them, (1Co.11:1) Be ye imitators of me, even as I also am of Christ. Or, in other words, “Follow me, as I follow the Lord.” Even today, folks, when you see people who are following the Lord and being a good example, pay attention to their witness and their testimony. There are many people out there speaking only from their theology, but with no experience whatsoever. They haven't walked with God by faith and they're leading God's people into Babylon. “The things which ye both learned and received and heard and saw in me, these things do: and the God of peace shall be with you.” This is what we want, folks. We want to walk in the peace of God. (Isa.26:3) Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee]; because he trusteth in thee.  If we permit the devil to penetrate our defense, which is faith in the Word of God, then the fiery dart of the “stinger” will come through. If you are not (Eph.6:16) … taking up the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the evil [one], then you'll be overcome by emotions. You'll do what the world does and so you'll fall under the judgment of the world. As we've seen, this is exactly what the Israelites did in the wilderness, when they fell under the judgment of the world and under the curse of Deuteronomy 28. Except for Joshua and Caleb, they died in the wilderness instead of overcoming and entering into the Promised Land. “But I am persuaded of better things of you,” Paul said. “I am persuaded that the Lord is able to keep you and to bring you through these troubling times in boldness and in courage” (Hebrews 6:9-12,18-19). Make sure, saints, that there is nothing in your heart that will hinder, nothing in your heart that will separate you from that boldness that God gives to those who are obedient, because (1Jn.3:21) Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God… And that boldness will bring you peace. (Php.4:9) The things which ye both learned and received and heard and saw in me, these things do: and the God of peace shall be with you. There is one passage in the Bible where Jesus spoke about anxiety; it's in Matthew chapter 6 and He mentioned it six times. He did not do that anywhere else. We're going to look at that because it's where an awful lot of Christians struggle. We are heading toward a wilderness trial, folks, and one thing we find in a wilderness trial is that the Lord suffers His people to see lack. He suffers them to be tried in order to see what they will do. In all the places where the Lord led His people Israel in the wilderness, it was from one trial to the next. They were always seeing lack ahead of them, lack of water, lack of food, lack of protection from enemies, and so on and so forth. Of course, they had many opportunities to be penetrated by fear and anxiety. They had many opportunities to run in the opposite direction, to cry out in unbelief, and even to accuse God of things that He had no mind to do. (Num.14:2) And all the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron: and the whole congregation said unto them, Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! or would that we had died in this wilderness! (3) And wherefore doth the Lord bring us unto this land, to fall by the sword? … You know, they finally convinced Him and it was exactly what they needed. It was their own fault, too, because God told Moses, (Num.14:28) Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord, surely as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you: (29) your dead bodies shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward, that have murmured against me, (30) surely ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware that I would make you dwell therein, save Caleb the son of Jephunneh, and Joshua the son of Nun. That's what they had faith for and so He gave it to them, because (Mat.9:29) … According to your faith be it done unto you. Anxiety and fear is faith; it is just negative faith, faith in the curse and in the devil, and God will let you have the curse if you believe in it. I know there are some of you who don't believe there is anything to come but peace and prosperity to God's people because of how special they are. Folks, you are missing history. Please read the Bible again because God's people went through fiery trials. They were hated of the nations, and Jesus said it's going to be the same for us. (Mat.24:9) Then shall they deliver you up unto tribulation, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all the nations for my name's sake. (10) And then shall many stumble, and shall deliver up one another, and shall hate one another. (11) And many false prophets shall arise, and shall lead many astray. (12) And because iniquity shall be multiplied, the love of the many shall wax cold. (13) But he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved. Most of us have never gone through any of that, but none of us have gone through the hatred of the whole world against Christianity. The Lord is raising-up a very big enemy against His small group of elect, exactly the way it was with Israel. And He's going to take a lot of worldly provision away from His people in the days to come, so that their provision will come from heaven. The Lord is going to provide for His people. He's going to show Himself strong on behalf of them that have put their faith and trust in Him. Now I would like to read what Jesus had to say concerning His provision for you in the times to come. Notice that in this passage where Jesus mentions the word “anxious” six times, it is always the same Greek word merimnaó, which we just read in Philippians. (Php.4:6) In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. Well, here in Matthew we see He is teaching the people, and it seems their anxiety was always about their provision, the things that they needed in order to be able to live in the wilderness. He tells them, (Mat.6:19) Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal: (20) but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth consume, and where thieves do not break through nor steal (Many of God's people have their confidence in what they can store-up, not in what God promised He would do.): (21) for where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also. Of course, your treasure is something that you stored up as a provision for your future, so that is where your heart, your trust, will be. (22) The lamp of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. In other words, an “eye” that is “single” is not an eye that is set upon its own provisions; it's not set upon things that it has stored-up to save self in the days to come. (23) But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore, the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is the darkness! An “eye” that is “dark” is an eye that has its confidence in the things of this world, and I am going to prove that to you as we read on. (24) No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. Those “two masters” He's talking about are God and mammon. Mamónas is the Aramaic word for “riches, money, possessions, property,” and it comes from an Old Testament Hebrew word matmon, which means “hidden treasures,” while mammōnás means “the treasure a person trusts (has confidence) in.”  So “mammon” here represents trusting in worldly treasures that are stored-up or hidden, trusting in the things of the world to provide salvation. As you know, when the Israelites came out of Egypt, God permitted them to have something they trusted in, gold and silver, that was given into their hands by the Egyptians, by the world (Exodus 3:22). And, again, they made an idol out of this, meaning they trusted in it. God wanted them to be tried in this way because He was the one that permitted them to go out there with this gold. However, His plan was to try them to see if they would be faithful, and they weren't. They made an idol out of that gold (Exodus 32:4), the thing that they had stored-up to preserve them through their wilderness trials. God wanted to meet their needs out of heaven; that was His plan from the beginning but first He had to get the gold out of the way. (Exo.32:20) And he (That is Moses.) took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, and ground it to powder, and strewed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it. In other words, “I hope you remember this lesson.”  People who are trusting in the things that they are storing-up for the times to come, are doing it because they do not believe the Word of God. They do not believe that (Php.4:19) … my God shall supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. They are anxious, troubled, and fearful. Their trust and confidence is in mammon. They have the eye that is evil. Their eye is not single. Let's read on and see if Jesus confirms this. (Mat.6:25) Therefore I say unto you, be not anxious (There is the first one of six mentions, and again, it's the same word, merimnaó, that we read in Philippians 4:6.) for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. We don't have to worry about these things. We don't have to worry about preparing in our own strength to preserve ourselves through the days to come. Many people claim they have received words from the “Lord” about preparing for themselves. I tell you, folks, we are coming to a time when God wants to prove His power to save you by signs and wonders and miracles, not by your own worldly methods. God's provision came out of heaven to God's people in the wilderness. He did not want them to be anxious; He did not want them to be fearful. He wanted them to trust in His provision alone, so He ran them out of everything that they provided for themselves when they came out of Egypt and then He provided for them. They received water out of the rock (Numbers 20:11) and manna out of heaven (Exodus 16:4) and quail out of the sky (Exodus 16:12). We are coming to the exact same repetition of history today, except this time it is for the Church. Once again God is going to provide for those who believe. (Mat.6:25) Therefore I say unto you, be not anxious for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than the food, and the body than the raiment? (26) Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Have you ever thought that if you could not provide for yourself or if the economy went down, which it will, and you could not work, that God would provide for you? Well, I guarantee you He will provide if you walk by faith, but where He says “they sow not,” is God teaching that you don't need to work for a living? Obviously not, because Paul told us, (2Th.3:10) For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, If any will not work, neither let him eat. (11) For we hear of some that walk among you disorderly, that work not at all, but are busybodies. (12) Now them that are such we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. I'll tell you what I believe is going to happen. I believe there is going to be a great exchange in these days, God's people are finally going to wake up and take the Great Commission seriously. (Mat.28:19) Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Jesus said (Luk.11:23) … he that gathereth not with me, scattereth. He wants us gathering and He raises up disciples to do His work of the Great Commission and if you are not working for the world, you can work for Him. Even the birds and the flowers work for Him, but they don't toil in the world and God still feeds the birds and clothes the flowers.  (Mat.6:26) Behold the birds of the heaven, that they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns (They're not storing up their treasures, their food, for the days to come.); and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not ye of much more value than they? (27) And which of you by being anxious (There's the second mention.) can add one cubit unto the measure of his life? We know that anxiety does nothing but destroy you, physically, mentally, emotionally. It brings sickness because it tears down your immunity. Faith can beat anything, but anxiety can do nothing except bring you more harm. (Mat.6:28) And why are ye anxious (There's the third mention.) concerning raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: (29) yet I say unto you, that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. (Wow!) (30) But if God doth so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, [shall he] not much more [clothe] you, O ye of little faith? The Lord is going to take care of you; don't worry about a thing. Some of you are going to lose your jobs, which you so prize, and maybe your high standard of living. However, you are going to exchange your attitude towards the world and the things of the world, for one that is like those of the disciples in Jesus' day. Folks, Christians were plundered in Jesus' day. When those Jews became Christians, they were plundered. Nobody would do business with them. Basically, they were in a wilderness, yet the Lord provided for them because they put their trust in Him.  (Mat.6:31) Be not therefore anxious (There's the fourth mention.), saying, what shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? Why did He keep mentioning the same thing? It's because He knew the carnal nature and He knew the trials that were coming for the Jewish Christians in these days. When Jesus spoke this back then, they were in the beginning of the first 3-1/2 years of their tribulation. He knew what they were going through, and He knew what we are going to go through in our day, which is the same thing, folks. There is a great economic collapse coming, but God has made this promise that He is going to provide for His people. Don't give in to any anxiety and fear. Know that God has said He is your Jehovah-Jireh. (Gen.22:14) And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the Lord it shall be provided. He is going to provide for you in everything. He wants to show you His Glory. He wants to show you His Power.   (Mat.6:31) Be not therefore anxious, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? (32) For after all these things do the Gentiles (These were the unsaved heathen at that time.) seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. Yes, He already knows this. You don't have to worry, you don't have to beg, and you don't have to spend hours and hours on your knees. All you have to do is, (Php.4:6) In nothing be anxious; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. You are not going to be heard for your “much speaking” (Matthew 6:7). Don't be fearful or anxious because of what you see, or because it appears as if you're coming to the end of your own provision. God is bringing you there because you need to be at the end of your own provision before you can receive God's provision. He wants to show you a miracle; He wants to show you many miracles.  (Mat.6:33) But seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. God is going to make sure that you are provided for as you seek first His Kingdom, as you seek to build His Kingdom both in your life and in the lives of the people around you. Seek first His Kingdom and He is going to make sure that you are going to have everything that you need. Of course, if you are seeking His Kingdom, you are not going to have a love of the world. (1Jn.2:15) Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. The love of the world is sin; the love of the Father is not. I would say the overwhelming number of Christians have a problem with a love of the world, and they are even taught to love the world in their prosperity-minded churches. They have to have the things of the world, but the Bible doesn't call that “prosperity.” (3Jn.1:2) Beloved, I pray that in all things thou mayest prosper (The Greek word there is euodoó meaning “to have a successful journey.” It's the same root for the name “Euodia” that means “successful in reaching a goal” in Philippians 4:2.) and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. That's euodoó again so it's not talking about having material riches. (Mat.6:34) Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. (These are the fifth and sixth mentions of “anxious” by Jesus. He said not to be anxious about our provisions, about our needs being met, because God would take care of it.) Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Jesus is commanding us, “Don't worry about tomorrow. The Lord is going to take care of it for you. You don't have to be fearful.” He reminds us, (Luk.12:32) Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Oh, glory to God! It certainly is. Now I would like to show you what He says is important. (Luk.10:38) Now as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. (39) And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at the Lord's feet, and heard his word. (40) But Martha was cumbered about much serving; and she came up to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister did leave me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. (41) But the Lord answered and said unto her, “Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things: (42) but one thing is needful: for Mary hath chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her. Folks, don't be worried and anxious about how to serve God or what to do in this world. There is just one thing that is important: we need to sit at His feet and listen to Him.  God's Vaccine 8 Anxiety and Fear, Part 2 As we're learning, there are some great shakings, some great judgments, coming across the world in these days, and the devil always uses things that we see and things that we hear to try to bring fear upon God's people. Whenever something happens, immediately the devil or his demons pounce and you feel the spirit of fear come over you like a blanket. Well, we're obviously meant to make war against that, so don't accept any fear as if it's just a personal weakness and allow it to stay. Remember, we spoke about the skorpizo spirits, whose job it is “to penetrate and put to flight.” They cause a person to be fearful or anxious. They cause a person to flee from the devil and, of course, then they're no threat against his kingdom.  Fear is one of the devil's “big guns,” but the Bible says, (2Ti.1:7) For God gave us not a spirit of fearfulness; but of power and love and discipline. The word there translated “discipline” comes from the Greek sóphronizó and literally means “sober-mindedness; control.” If you're not walking in willful disobedience when a spirit of fear comes upon you, you know that it's not from God. It's from the devil and you shouldn't receive it or give-in to it or think about it, because if you do, it's going to conquer you. It comes for the purpose of penetrating your armor (Ephesians 6:10-17) and putting you to flight. We know the only fear that we should have is the fear of the Lord, which is the beginning of wisdom (Psalm 111:10; Proverbs 1:7,9:10; etc.) If we fear the Lord, we will depart from unrighteousness, as the Bible says (2 Timothy 2:19). Any other fear, such as the fear of man, brings a snare. God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but if you're walking in willful disobedience, you're proving that you don't fear the Lord. If you don't fear the Lord, you will have fear of the devil, which is foolishness because it is giving faith to the devil. Fear is faith, but it's negative faith; it's faith in the curse, faith in the devil, faith in failure. It's as our Lord Jesus told us, (Mat.9:29) … According to your faith be it done unto you. And that's one reason why Job said, (Job.3:25) For the thing which I fear cometh upon me, And that which I am afraid of cometh unto me. It's important for us to understand that our fears come to pass, just like our faiths do. They're opposite reactions, but both of them are faith. Saints, we are supposed to be overcomers.    (Rev.21:7) He that overcometh shall inherit these things… Of course, the Lord is implying that if you don't overcome, you're not going to inherit the new heaven and new earth and all the great things that God has provided for His people (Revelation 21:1-4). There are those who don't think we have anything to overcome. They think that Jesus overcame it all, which is true, but Jesus overcame so that we could overcome. We learn to abide in Him and see those works manifest. The Bible says, (Jas.2:17) Even so faith, if it have not works, is dead in itself. Overcomers are sons of God and they will inherit the Kingdom. (Rev.21:7) He that overcometh shall inherit these things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. Now the next verse puts “fear” and “unbelief” together, because if you are fearful, then you are unbelieving, and if you are unbelieving, then you will be fearful. Notice “He that overcometh,” is not an overcomer unless these things are overcome. (Rev.21:8) But for the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part [shall be] in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. “Fearful” and “unbelieving” are grouped right in there with these really abominable sins. So fear is more than a weakness, it's a sin, and it's unbelief. The Bible calls it “an evil heart of unbelief.” (Heb.3:12) Take heed, brethren, lest haply there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God. Fear is something we need to make war against whenever we feel its presence, whenever we have fearful thoughts. Fear can manifest in even worse ways but most of all, it causes us to run from the devil and give up the fight. It causes us to lose ground.  Just as the fearful and the unbelieving are among the wicked, obviously, there's a part of every one of us that is wicked, and it's that old man that we want to overcome. (Gal.5:17) For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary the one to the other; that ye may not do the things that ye would. There's a war going on in every one of us, yet we can overcome through faith in the victory that Jesus had at the Cross. (1Co.15:22) For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive. When Christ was resurrected, we were resurrected, too. We received His resurrection life. When He overcame, we also overcame. (Gal.2:20) I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me: and that [life] which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, [the faith] which is in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me. We were crucified with Christ and the old man was put to death with Christ, but we need to hold on to our faith to see it manifested in the physical realm. The gift that has been given to us, we can overcome to receive.  There's an awesome revelation I want to share with you where God calls the fearful “wicked,” which is another confirmation that we need to fight against this spirit. (Job.15:20) The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, Even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor. (21) A sound of terrors is in his ears; In prosperity the destroyer shall come upon him. Isn't that amazing? Some of the words we hear most these days are “terror” and “terrorist” and “terrorism”! You know, I believe we are coming to the end of the “seven years of plenty” that was prophesied by Joseph and we're coming to the beginning of the “seven years of famine” (Genesis 41). We can look around us and see that this is coming upon the prosperous.  (Job.15:22) He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness… The wicked are in terror and they don't believe that they will return out of darkness, but that's not believing the Gospel. That's not believing the Good News. (Col.1:12) Giving thanks unto the Father, who made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light; (13) who delivered us out of the power of darkness, and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love; (14) in whom we have our redemption, the forgiveness of our sins. That's the Good News we are to believe, but the wicked don't believe and so they live in terror. (Job.15:22) He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, And he is waited for of the sword. (23) He wandereth abroad for bread, [saying], Where is it? He knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand. (24) Distress and anguish make him afraid; They prevail against him, as a king ready to the battle. The devil conquers and rules the wicked by fear. If you are ruled by fear, if you act according to your fear, then you're submitting to the devil's kingdom instead of God, because He hasn't given us a spirit of fearfulness. If you're ruled by fear, you're not ruled by God and you're in idolatry because you're having faith in the devil. (Job.15:25) Because he hath stretched out his hand against God, And behaveth himself proudly against the Almighty. Fear is part of the judgment that comes upon the wicked because they're acting against God. God turns over to the devil those who walk in sin. This is true even of the Kingdom people. Jesus said, (Mat.18:34) And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due. He had them turned over to the tormentors, but the wicked of the world are already turned over to the tormentors. They live in torment, but the righteous are believing God and they're coming out of the kingdom of darkness. The wicked do not believe God, so they live under the tormentors, which include fear and anxiety. Since they have stretched out their hand against God, He has delivered them over to this fear. We're told, (1Jn.3:21) Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, we have boldness toward God; (22) and whatsoever we ask we receive of him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight. If we have a clear conscience, we have boldness and not fear. When God does allow fear to come upon a person who has a clear conscience, God is allowing it to come as a trial unto them, and their boldness is the very thing that will vanquish it. (Pro.28:1) The wicked flee when no man pursueth; But the righteous are bold as a lion. Fear is natural and normal to the wicked. Who are the “wicked”? The wicked are those who sin. It doesn't matter whether you're a Christian or not, if you're walking in willful sin, you're wicked. You don't have boldness toward God and His benefits in that case because your conscience condemns you. You want a defense against fear in the days to come, because you're going to see and hear things that are fearful, and that's when the devil pounces upon you. That's when he tries to overcome you so that you're full of fear and are just running from him. Jesus told us, (Mat.12:30) He that is not with me is against me, and he that gathereth not with me scattereth. If we're not plundering the devil's kingdom, we are going to be running from him. Without a clear conscience, we have guilt. Demons use this to condemn you so that you have no faith toward God and His Word. When you don't know the Gospel, when you don't know that your failures and ignorances are covered by the Blood (James 4:17), you can have false guilt, which Satan can use to deliver you over to fear.  As a matter of fact, that's what happened to Adam. Adam had only one commandment to obey, (Gen.2:17) … of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die. But Adam broke that commandment. (Gen.3:7) And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked… “Nakedness” here is a representation of the guilt of sin. They didn't know they were naked until they partook of the fruit “of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.” Now they were made sinners because now they knew they had broken God's law, and so guilt is the first thing they received. (Gen.3:7) And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig-leaves together, and made themselves aprons. Obviously, they were attempting to cover their guilt. Men do try to cover their guilt in various ways through self-works.  As we know, (Gen.3:21) And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife coats of skins, and clothed them. God slew animals, and without the shedding of blood, there is no covering for our sins (Hebrews 9:22). He didn't accept their self-works to alleviate their guilt. (Gen.3:8) And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden. Many people, including Christians, are hiding themselves because of their guilt. They don't want to face God and they don't like to read the Word because it condemns them. They don't know the great Sacrifice that the Lord has made for them to be given grace to overcome. Guilt makes them feel bad when they face themselves, when they read the Word, and so forth. (Gen.3:9) And the Lord God called unto the man, and said unto him, Where art thou? (10) And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself. Guilt brings fear. If you don't want to be overcome by fear, you need to confess your sins because, (1Jn.1:9) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. We need to repent, confess our sins, and have faith that Jesus has given us authority over this old flesh.  The real Good News is that the Lord wants to live the Christian life in us; He wants to be (Col.1:27) … Christ in you, the hope of glory. Many people are living under the bondage of guilt and there is no reason to be doing that when the real Good News is that He's already set us free. (Rom.8:2) For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death. If you have guilt, the devil can use that to conquer you with fear because then you don't have boldness towards God. You know, folks, sometimes we get so far down that we're willing to look up, and sometimes the Lord lets the devil take advantage of us until we're willing to get our eyes on Him and to have faith in what He's accomplished at the Cross. Faith that brings obedience gives us victory over fear. (Lev.26:13) I am the Lord your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt… As Christians, we, too, have been delivered out of the “land of Egypt.” Spiritually speaking, “Egypt” represents the world, and we've been delivered from bondage to the world, delivered from bondage to the old man, who is the “Egyptian.” (Lev.26:13) I am the Lord your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, that ye should not be their bondmen; and I have broken the bars of your yoke, and made you go upright. This is basically the Gospel, isn't it? You've been delivered: He made you free from sin. You're no longer in bondage to the old man.  (Lev.26:14) But if ye will not hearken unto me, and will not do all these commandments (Notice how many times He says the same thing over and over here.); (15) and if ye shall reject my statutes, and if your soul abhor mine ordinances, so that ye will not do all my commandments (He's making sure that we get the point.), but break my covenant; (16) I also will do this unto you: I will appoint terror over you (God delivers people who are rebellious against His Word over to fear.), even consumption and fever, that shall consume the eyes, and make the soul to pine away; and ye shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. Yes, many people are constantly plundered by the devil. They're delivered over to fear because they're rebellious against His Word. They have no boldness to come against the devil and they don't understand why they're being devoured by the devourer (Malachi 3:11). (Lev.26:17) And I will set my face against you, and ye shall be smitten before your enemies: they that hate you shall rule over you; and ye shall flee when none pursueth you. This is exactly what we read earlier: (Pro.28:1) The wicked flee when no man pursueth; But the righteous are bold as a lion. So we see that God appoints terror over rebellious people, whether they are God's rebellious people or the people of the world. Terror in these days, I believe, is something that God has loosed through the devil to motivate people to run to Him, to run to repentance and faith and boldness, so that we may be delivered of these things. Fear gives control to the devil, who will bring us right back into bondage in Egypt.  (Deu.28:64) And the Lord will scatter thee among all peoples, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth… A lot of people don't realize that everything that happened to Israel in the Old Testament, happens to the Church in a spiritual way. The Church was said by Peter to be just one holy nation (1 Peter 2:9), and Paul said that we were grafted into the olive tree called “all Israel” (Romans 11:17-26). We are one people, but we've been divided and scattered. The Bible talks about the shepherds that scatter the flock (Jeremiah 10:21; Ezekiel 34:6; Matthew 26:31;

Tests Prove Who is the Bride (2)(Audio)David Eells - 7/28/21Getting Dressed as a Bride for the Marriage FeastDavid Eells  The Lord awakened me at 2:00 AM on 12/30/11 and I then fell into a trance. He touched my neck and I felt a strong anointing come into me. (Something like this happened once before when I was strengthened to go on the conference tours.) He spoke to me to share with you of getting dressed up as a bride by being obedient to His commands, for the Marriage Feast, which begins at the beginning of the last seven days/years before going to the Groom's home in heaven.  Time is almost up to be ready and some are not redeeming it. Some have already been rejected; others must make some steps to keep from being rejected and be in line for the prize of the high calling of God. The Lord spoke of simple steps to take to get ready but that some would not be willing to take them because of pride or rebellion. He spoke of bringing all darkness or hidden sins into the light to be destroyed by confessing our sins one to another so we may be healed and cleansed -- James 5:16; John 3:19-21; 1 John 1:7-10. At this time, I was given a vision of some people in the faction returning to us to receive the Word. They were like a wayward wife returning to her husband. Later that morning, I received confirmations. A brother was returning from being out of town to local UBM and shared a dream he just had. He saw some people returning to UBM with joy when they were set free from the factious spirits. He didn't know we had been praying for that. Another brother also had been awakened at 2:00 AM and was told that what was coming on mankind would be devastating but that the obedient should not be afraid. I met him for breakfast the next morning and he received a discernment that I had received a word from the Lord to give the people. A sister then read this above and received Psalm 21, which speaks of the anointing of the Davids and God's defeat of their enemies. Please pray and fight the spiritual battle for the souls of the fallen around the world. We at local UBM are praying diligently for our brethren whom we love and want to see in the Bride. I briefly shared in the last study about the marriage feast but I wanted to go into a little more detail here: After seven days of the marriage feast, God's people will go to the Groom's home. Jacob served seven years for each of his wives and he had a marriage feast of seven days for each of them (Genesis 29:18-28). This is a parallel revelation. These seven days represent the last seven years or the seventieth week of Daniel, the Tribulation. Samson kept a seven-day marriage feast for his betrothed but left without taking her on the seventh day so she was given to another man just as the harlot will, in our day (Judges 14:12-15:2). Jesus will feast with His Bride in spirit for seven days/years, after which they are escorted by the virgins to the Groom's home in heaven where she will legally be His. This Hebrew custom is shown in The Zondervan Pictorial Encyclopedia of the Bible, 1976, page 97 under "Marriage". My notes are in red. The bridegroom was the king for a week (seven-day/year wedding feast). During the whole week their majesties wore their festal clothes, did not work, and merely looked on at the games - except that now and then the queen joined in a dance. Accompanied by his friends (John the Baptist was a friend of the Bridegroom in John 3:29) with tambourines and a band they went to the bride's house (which is obviously on earth) where the wedding ceremonies were to start. The bride richly dressed, adorned with jewels (Psalms 45:14-15), usually wore a veil (meaning submission in 1 Corinthians 11:5-13), which she took off only in the bridal chamber. Escorted by her companions (the virgins), the bride was led to the home of the bridegroom (in heaven: This is where the marriage supper is and the marriage contract, the Ketuba, is signed, which delineates the responsibilities of the Groom and Bride. These of course are written all through the Word.). David: This is clear. After the seven days/years of the feast, representing the Tribulation, on the eighth day, which is the day of circumcision when the flesh is cut off, the Groom, the Bride, the friends of the Groom and the virgins, all leave dressed in their new bodies to go to the Groom's home in heaven. It will be just as when Moses and all Israel left Egypt together. Even the dead in Christ will join the procession. (1Co.15:51) ...We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed, (52) in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump.... That the Lord takes His people after the seven days/years of the marriage feast is clearly proven by Scripture. As we have seen, a great multitude comes out of the Great Tribulation to the throne of God. (Rev.7:9)...A great multitude...out of every nation...standing before the throne and before the Lamb.... (14)...These are they that come out of the great tribulation.... Only after "the great tribulation", this "great multitude", which is made up of all who attend the marriage, announces that the Bride is ready and the marriage is come. (Rev.19:1) After these things I heard as it were a great voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying.... (7)...the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. (8) And it was given unto her that she should array herself in fine linen, bright [and] pure: for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints. (9) And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they that are bidden to the marriage supper of the Lamb.... Notice that the marriage supper is in heaven, after the seven-day feast. Here is a revelation of “The Final Exam for the Bride."   Final Exam for the Bride, Too Late for Some Eve Brast - 03/11/2016 (David's notes in red) I dreamed that I was in a one-room home schoolhouse. David Eells was my teacher. His voice was a blend between his own and my dad's. (David here is a type of the David Man-child reformers who will speak as an oracle of God our Father.) {1Pe.4:11} if any man speaketh, 'speaking as it were oracles of God; if any man ministereth, ministering as of the strength which God supplieth: that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen. David was much bigger in the dream than he is in real life. (Because the David Man-child ministers are big in the Lord and they are a corporate body.) He sat over to my right and slightly behind me, against the wall, in a very large 1950s-style school desk. I had a smaller version of that same desk placed in the center of the classroom. I was the only student of his in this school. (Eve, as a type of the Bride, is tutored by the Man-child. John saw Jesus, the David-Man-child, and said, "He that hath the Bride is the Bridegroom”. Notice that Jesus personally tutored the bride in the gospels. At this time some are being culled or rejected from around the bride so as not to leaven her.  This was as Esther was taken out of the house of the women before being chosen.) The classroom itself was not very well-lit and it was even dark toward the outer edges. {1Co.13:12} For now we see in a mirror, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know fully even as also I was fully known. (A lot of things that Jesus, as Man-child, said in the beginning were not understood by the Bride. Jesus had light but the Bride was still in some darkness, depending on how far away from Him they were.) But there was a bright light that shone down over David's head from above like a spotlight. This enabled him to see clearly and easily to grade my test papers. I also had a light shining down over my head but it was more of a warm, golden light and not as bright as David's to see by. I had been sitting at my desk, fidgeting around and waiting, but I didn't know in the dream what exactly I was waiting for. Then David called me up to his desk and when I walked up, he handed me three algebraic pre-tests I had taken, that he had graded and corrected. He told me, "You really need to study the corrections I have made on these pre-tests well because you are about to take your final exam". I was glad that he was gracious when he said this and didn't make mention of the fact that I had failed the tests. (Grace has us look to the future in faith that we have overcome at the cross, rather than to the past failures which rob faith. {Php.3:12} Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect: but I press on, if so be that I may lay hold on that for which also I was laid hold on by Christ Jesus. {13} Brethren, I count not myself yet to have laid hold: but one thing I do, forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, {14} I press on toward the goal unto the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Also we see here that those who do not receive correction will be rejected from the Bride.) I said, "Okay. I will". {Pro.12:1} Whoso loveth correction loveth knowledge; But he that hateth reproof is brutish. {13:1} A wise son heareth his father's instruction; But a scoffer heareth not rebuke. When I sat back down at my desk, I looked at my grades on two of the pre-tests. One was a 67% and the other was a 68%. So I started to really study all the corrections that David had painstakingly detailed. It was very thorough. The grades and all the corrections were written in red ink. David had made it easy for me to see the mistakes I had made in trying to balance the equations, so that it was much easier to study for the final exam. (Some people are spiritually lazy and never correct their mistakes from the past. Going from 67% to 68% shows improvement in correcting mistakes.) After I had studied, I went back up to David's desk and he handed me my final exam. (Truly, the Davids are giving the exams because with knowledge comes responsibility and "to whom much is given much is expected". Just as in School, with truth comes testing. {Mat.13:21} yet hath he not root in himself, but endureth for a while; and when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway he stumbleth.) I took it back to my desk and started to solve the problems. To my surprise, it was very easy. I felt the wisdom of the Lord filling my mind as I finished the exam in no time! (God will give grace for growth and maturity now.) Then I took it back to David and when he was finished grading it he looked up and smiled and said, "Congratulations. You aced it!" (100%? I only remember studying two of the three pre-tests and their corrections. I feel that this represents the grace of our Father, whose power is made perfect in our weakness.) I then had a vision in the dream. (After the Bride has taken the final exam and passed, Jesus' anointing comes in the Man-child at the time of the earthquakes.) I saw a huge crack open up in the ground. (The earthquakes promised at His coming.) There was a white sheet of paper with some words from the Lord written on it suspended inside the crack. (A heavenly decree [Of judgment on those who failed because they got no grace because they gave no grace. It is written of the Korah usurpation and rebellion against Moses, the Man-child, that the earth, or flesh, swallowed them alive.].) I couldn't make out what it said. I also knew in the dream that other cracks had opened in other places as well. (In dreams, we received it would be East Coast / New Madrid / TN Valley / West Coast.) (After the cracking open came the water? (The water represents a flood of God's Words being manifested which, like the flood, were death to the wicked but salvation and revival to the righteous.) When the vision ended, I found myself hanging onto a portion of the school house roof about the size of a small raft. (Passing the test enables the Bride, Zion, the City of God, to escape the flood of judgment to come.) It was floating in what seemed like wavy ocean water. I could see an ancient-looking city in front of me that this huge body of water was going over. (It was like we were at the leading edge of the water as the first-fruits.) The city had sunlight shining on the off-white stucco, one-story houses that were all joined together. (Representing the unity of the Bride, the City of God, as opposed to the evil city of Babylon that was being judged.) {Zep.3:1} Woe to her that is rebellious and polluted! to the oppressing city! {2} She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in Jehovah; she drew not near to her God. ... {7} I said, Only fear thou me; receive correction; so her dwelling shall not be cut off, according to all that I have appointed concerning her: but they rose early and corrupted all their doings. (Notice: The rebellious and polluted oppressors of the faction who along with others refused correction from God were judged and did not find grace to be in the protected Bride city.) David was at the "bow" of this roof portion, standing and teaching us. He was wearing a white polo shirt. (This represents the Man-child Davids in whom Jesus lives by His Word and Spirit. These are the white horse whose rider is Jesus in Rev.6) There was another person to my right hanging onto the right side of the portion of the roof with me. There were two others on the left side and a person on the back end, as well as a young person sitting on top of the roof portion. (Others with various problems will escape through faith who have not matured to the level of the Bride. If Noah was the Man-child and his wife the Bride, the children were also in the ark and escaped.) There were seven of us all together. Even though we were mostly in the water, none of us were wet at all. (No effect of the flood on those in the ark of Christ. They have a Psalm 91 Passover of the curse.) We were all excited and talking with one another and listening to David teaching. {Mat.5:6} Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. I asked Father for a verse for this dream and received Ezekiel 21:11. In context: {Eze.21:8} And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying, {9} Son of man, prophesy, and say, Thus saith Jehovah: Say, A sword, a sword, it is sharpened, and also furbished; {10} it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? (play games and not take correction before judgment?) the rod of my son, it contemneth every tree. (He commanded the tree to be cut down that did not bear fruit) {11} And it is given to be furbished, that it may be handled: the sword, it is sharpened, yea, it is furbished, to give it into the hand of the slayer. {12 Cry and wail, son of man; for it is upon my people, it is upon all the princes of Israel: they are delivered over to the sword with my people; smite therefore upon thy thigh. {13} For there is a trial (My New English Bible version that I put my finger down in says "a test”.)(The Tribulation is the test) and what if even the rod that contemneth shall be no more? saith the Lord Jehovah. I asked Father for a word concerning the final exam and received 1 Chronicles 23:24: {1Ch.23:24} These were the sons of Levi after their fathers houses, even the heads of the fathers houses of those of them that were counted, in the number of names by their polls, who did the work for the service of the house of Jehovah, from twenty years old and upward. (The gathering of the priests of the house of the Lord who make a covenant with Him by sacrifice. {Psa.50:2} Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God hath shined forth. {3} Our God cometh, and doth not keep silence: A fire devoureth before him, And it is very tempestuous round about him. {4} He calleth to the heavens above, And to the earth, that he may judge his people (Notice that some are judged while others are not just like the above dream):  {5} Gather my saints together unto me, Those that have made a covenant with me by sacrifice. (Sacrifice of their fleshly old life to gain their new life as Jesus said.) {6} And the heavens shall declare his righteousness; For God is judge himself. [Selah] {7} Hear, O my people, and I will speak; O Israel, and I will testify unto thee: I am God, even thy God. (Those who bear the tabernacle of God's presence and sacrifice the flesh are not judged, for He said) {8} I will not reprove thee for thy sacrifices; And thy burnt-offerings are continually before me.) {1Ch.23:25} For David said, Jehovah, the God of Israel, hath given rest unto his people; and he dwelleth in Jerusalem (the Bride) for ever: {26} and also the Levites shall no more have need to carry the tabernacle (because they are the tabernacle, the mobile temple of God's presence) and all the vessels of it for the service thereof. {27} For by the last words of David the sons of Levi were numbered, from twenty years old and upward. {28} For their office was to wait on the sons of Aaron for the service of the house of Jehovah, in the courts, and in the chambers, and in the purifying of all holy things, even the work of the service of the house of God; So we see here the Bride finishing her schooling to be chosen for the Bride position but the factious, those separated, did not accept correction to be in the Bride.  Here is a prophesy given to Doug Addison back on 8/17/15 But it is so relevant for us today. ... The enemy is continuing to overplay his attacks against many people. This is because there is a powerful breakthrough coming for those who stand through the storms. There will be a greater level of repayment coming for those who make it through the season. Prophetic dreams will continue to increase. An unusual amount of wisdom and favor is being released right now. ... If you or someone you know has been under attack by the enemy then there is a good chance that you are a strategic person in the Kingdom of God. The enemy is trying to take out those who will be a part of this new move of God that's coming. Those on the front lines have been suffering from burnout, repeated attacks from the enemy, sickness and discouragement. The enemy is trying to take out those who have been battling and doing the work for the kingdom. … God... is repositioning people for something bigger that is coming. The source of the enemy's attacks is going to be revealed over the next five months (after their attacks on the bride). God is going to reveal the strategic attacks from the enemy that have been holding people down and keeping them from advancing. (declass)   Enduring the Trial to Receive  David Eells I was thinking earlier today that the thing that really makes me sad is people not enduring in faith to the end of their trial to receive the promise.  It is hard to fathom a third of the stars of heaven falling to the earth. The false doctrine of the apostate churches makes it sound like they have the promised land right on the other side of the Red Sea with no wilderness trials in between. But the Israelites were tried in the wilderness and those people who crossed the Red Sea and didn't overcome in the wilderness didn't get to go to the promised land. According to the apostate doctrines, you go right into the promise land right after you come out of the water but it doesn't work that way.   One of Jesus' sayings was, "He that endureth to the end shall be saved.” as  in Mat. 24:13 and Mat. 10.  For us, I think the most important thing about that statement is, "to the end of what?", to the end of the trial or tribulation. Some people say that it is just the whole picture of salvation, which is true, but it is also true about our "little pictures” or scenarios; every situation we get ourselves into. The Israelites were in a trial for water, food, snake bites and he that endureth to the end of every one of those tribulations will be saved.   We are being saved continuously because we endure. Some people don't see the necessity of enduring these little trials which is what God attributes righteousness to. He attributed righteousness to Abraham simply because he believed the promise; he had to endure many years before he saw it. At the beginning, his faith wasn't so hot. If you go back and read the story, he doesn't sound like the man of faith that Hebrews talks about. He made some mistakes but he learned, he was interested in God and learned as he went by his mistakes and God didn't attribute foolishness to him because he did that. Anyway, he ultimately did endure and became the father of the faithful. I think that's what we have got to learn in every one of these smaller trials, is to endure to the end in faith in God so when the bigger trials come we can handle them and take one more step in the way of righteousness.  Jesus was explaining the parable of the sower and, in the parable, some of the seeds fell upon the rocky places and didn't have much earth and when they sprung up they didn't have the deepness of earth and the sun rose and scorched them because they had no root, they fell away (see Mat. 13:5-6). Mat. 13:20-21  he that was sown upon the rocky places, this is he that heareth the word, and straightway with joy receiveth it; (21) yet hath he not root in himself, but endureth for a while; and when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, straightway he stumbleth. There were four different groups there and that was just one of the groups. But I'm convinced that this is one of our biggest problems and it is going to be a terrible problem in the days ahead because, God is coming to the place where He is going to purge His church. There is no time left for people to walk the fence for God is going to put you in one camp or the other through tribulation. (The Lukewarm are not accepted but spewed out of His body.)  What's going to do it is, you either are going to die in the wilderness or endure in faith until the end and enter into the promise land. The problem is that receiving the Word of God with joy and thankfulness is not enough according to this explanation because many people rejoice and jump up and down at what you preach and say, “Oh, what a good word!”. But when they go out and live it, it is something else and that's the thing that separates, as they say, "the men from the boys”. Are you going to endure; holding on to that Word and not giving it up? We know that the Bible promises us here, that because of the Word that God sowed in our hearts, we also are going to receive tribulation and persecution because of that Word. The Israelites did receive the promise in Egypt, they were tried in the wilderness to see if they would hold on to that promise and those who didn't hold on to that promise died in the wilderness and didn't enter into the promise land. They were tried and had to go through their wilderness experience and we are going through ours, we have got no choice but to be overcomers and to hold fast to the Word.   Some of the things that people talk about overcoming don't really matter, the only thing that really matters is: Do you believe in Jesus as your Savior and that ultimately He saved and will save your soul? What matters to God, with each and every one of us, is what knowledge He has put in each of us. We are all going to be judged separately and distinctly from one another according to what is written upon our hearts and the understanding He gave to us.  Here in Matthew 13 He is talking about the seed that was sown. That is the only thing that you are responsible for; the seed that was sown and if you are going to hold fast to that seed which was sown. For instance: I don't believe God is going to judge a Baptist about healing like He is going to judge a full-gospel believer about healing because, God has blessed you to understand more so you will be held accountable for more and bear more fruit. It is the seed that is sown. What did Abraham having a son have to do with his salvation, apparently a lot. God expected him to believe it so he could be justified. (Heb. 10:26) For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more a sacrifice for sins.  Considering what we are talking about, look at Hebrews 10:32, but call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were enlightened, ye endured a great conflict of sufferings. Notice they got enlightened and then they went through a test. Why is this true?  For one thing, you are trying to hold on to something that you can't see and trying to confess something that you can't see. It can tend to make us a schizophrenic, tearing you, and making you want to go one way and then the other. So it is a conflict between walking by sight and by faith. This is especially when you act by faith in the Word amongst the heathen. It says in verse 33, partly, being made a gazingstock, in other words, it is not wrong for you to be a gazing stock. It is not wrong, necessarily, to be put down upon by the heathen or the apostate, lukewarm Christians.  (Heb. 10:33) partly, being made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, becoming partakers with them that were so used.  In otherwords, agreeing with other people that are in the midst of tribulation and sticking up for them when they are being misused because they stand for the Word by faith.  Standing for Christ can mean nothing if you are not standing for what He said. (34) For ye both had compassion on them that were in bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your possessions, knowing that ye have for yourselves a better possession and an abiding one.  (35) Cast not away therefore your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward. (36) For ye have need of patience (endurance or steadfastness), that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise. Obviously from the text He is talking about the people who did the will of God and had to pay for it because persecution and tribulation came as a result of them standing in defense of the Word of God.   He said that they needed patience, in having done the will of God, that they might receive the promise and here is what we are talking about in Matthew 13, three of four people didn't have patience or endurance in their faith to receive. They won't endure the trial of their faith or persecution of standing up for the Word or the fear that the devil throws at them because they are trying to trust in the Lord for healing, deliverance, provision, or purity and the worldly only walk by sight.  You can be persecuted, not only by men but, by the devil and his demons who are continuously assailing your mind to try to get you to move away from the Word, to give up the promises in the Word.  If you give up the Word, the seed won't be fruitful like in 1 John 3 that says the Word abideth and knows what is born of God. Any area in your life that you are born of God is because you held on to the Word. In the areas where you have given up the Word; you become unfruitful and not born of God.  The point is, we have great promises just like the Israelites did before they crossed the Red Sea. They were tried to see if they would believe them. God was angry because they didn't believe and He killed them in the wilderness and that is still happening today.   The greatest part of the "great falling away" is about to happen. I don't believe we have seen it yet because great tribulation separates. Tribulation causes some people to rise up even higher and some people to sink and so the great falling away is when the great tribulation happens. The trials that happen try to tear you away from your standing in faith in the Word.  We really do need boldness and not to give it up which hath great recompense of reward and we need to know we need to be patient and endure so (Heb. 10:36) that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise. (37) For yet a very little while, He that cometh shall come, and shall not tarry. Jesus will be manifest in those who hold to the Word.   Select LanguageAfrikaansAlbanianAmharicArabicArmenianAzerbaijaniBasqueBelarusianBengaliBosnianBulgarianCatalanCebuanoChichewaChinese (Simplified)Chinese (Traditional)CorsicanCroatianCzechDanishDutchEsperantoEstonianFilipinoFinnishFrenchFrisianGalicianGeorgianGermanGreekGujaratiHaitian CreoleHausaHawaiianHebrewHindiHmongHungarianIcelandicIgboIndonesianIrishItalianJapaneseJavaneseKannadaKazakhKhmerKinyarwandaKoreanKurdish (Kurmanji)KyrgyzLaoLatinLatvianLithuanianLuxembourgishMacedonianMalagasyMalayMalayalamMalteseMaoriMarathiMongolianMyanmar (Burmese)NepaliNorwegianOdia (Oriya)PashtoPersianPolishPortuguesePunjabiRomanianRussianSamoanScots GaelicSerbianSesothoShonaSindhiSinhalaSlovakSlovenianSomaliSpanishSundaneseSwahiliSwedishTajikTamilTatarTeluguThaiTurkishTurkmenUkrainianUrduUyghurUzbekVietnameseWelshXhosaYiddishYorubaZulu Powered by Translate Printer-friendly version
