Be an Elijah

Isn’t that what we are supposed to do, stand in for him until he arrives? At least, that’s what the rabbis advise. Personally, I can totally see myself as an Elijah, not because I ask Abba for miracles to astound an audience, but the because of the traits of coming in as an outsider, to the nation of Israel, inelegant, awkward, and construed as hostile, without mother, father, or family. Elijah seemed to have trouble comprehending what “should be” normal. 

The rabbi I watched last week said that God was trying to tell Elijah, that he was being too harsh with the Israelis, that the miracles without God in them, were to counterbalance Elijah’s anger, and insistence on great events (that went against the natural order of things.) The rabbi also said, that Elijah was not listening, when God reasoned with him, so that is why he is then sent to find his own replacement. Elijah’s strictness was not the issue, because Elijah will be much more harsh the second time around. It was Elijah’s fear and his broken heart which the Lord sought to assuage. Elijah was clearly not expecting any resistance or doubt after the people had seen such spectacular and supernatural events. That is why he said he was no better than his fathers (the prophets before him.) That’s why he became afraid.

God knew something that Elijah did not. He knew that those who rebel against the still small voice of God, who reject HIS PERSON, would also not be able to set aside their ambition, even into the face of a display of raw power. It is true that The Lord prefers the gentle and quiet intimacy of long time friends, as the way to communicate with us, but Elijah was the awkward social type. Even though Israel had been seduced into idolatry, they were not quite bad enough to judge just yet. God still had some that were on HIS side! 

God decided to give Elijah another assignment, where his taste for dramatic flair could be indulged, on an uncooperative Israel, but first, HE took Elijah to be HIS personal witness, to show Elijah that there was NO need to fear! He became witness to the whole plan of God, to each event of the whole plan of redemption, as one of God’s two witnesses!

So Much for Tolerance

We are witnesses, are watching, the excruciating death of an idea, that a nation could be founded, could exist, built on the gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s a slow motion repudiation of the bonds of the grace of God and His Messiah. No matter. What our “leaders” have chosen for themselves, they will reap in abundance, for themselves. But, I have tears running down my face for the passing of an era. I believe the Almighty weeps with me, for He has brought the moaning wind and storm again. America’s demise is nothing less than an expose of the cynical pride of those, even the very ones who live within her, that view her with contempt, who think themselves the master of their fate, and better than the faith motivated, better than those honored to be servants of the Most High. Right now hate calls them Trump supporters, the ultimate in gullibility (and everything evil, according to them). I’ve seen rumors of more sinister names, such as terrorists, suggestions that they need to be deprogrammed, to have their children taken from them. I just call them Christians. Silencing their voices has started on media, but has already moved into the realm of murder. I don’t cry for Trump supporters. I mourn for their persecutors: Beauty, faith, and wonder has died in them. Is it any wonder that Grace has abandoned them to their folly, and calls for judgement to be executed against them by the very standards they themselves have chosen?

James 5:6, NLT: "You have condemned and killed innocent people, who do not resist you." 

I will say it here right now. This leader about to be installed against the express wishes of the people, will pass from this world before too long. I have seen it in the Word. His passing (by falling from the heights) will be the sign of the immediate rapture of the faithful. Then the glory of the Lord will be seen over the whole earth. Yes, LORD, bring on the satisfaction of YOUR will and works! We all know this tolerance thing is a sham, anyway.

Joseph’s Two Sevens

Joseph interpreted the dream of the most powerful king of his time. There were two periods of seven years in the dream. First there was the seven years of abundance and great harvest, then came the seven years of drought and famine. Joseph is a foreshadowed type of Jesus, with the great king a type of the Father. Joseph’s gentile bride is the representation of the called out ones from the goyim, taken into the house Jesus has prepared for her, some time before the second seven years. The Bride has inherited a part in the covenant of Abraham, through her husband.

The two sevens started in the spring of 2014, with the first blood moon, and the blood moons that year were on the holy days, as signs to the people, of the coming spiritual fulfillment. 2015 had blood moons on the appointed times, also. 2016 was the year of spiritual midnight, and the beginning of a new millennium, with an eclipse beginning the year. In 2017, we had the great American eclipse in August, with the great sign in the heavens occurring in September, again on the high holy days. This was the Revelation twelve sign, written in the stars. The warnings were given as promised.

Joseph is also a picture of the end times because of his dream of the sun, moon, and stars bowing down to him. The imagery of the dream is verified by Jacob when he relates it to Joseph’s mother and Jacob, himself, and those stars bowing to Joseph, in the dream, are also his brothers. This is the interpretation and tie in between Genesis and Revelation. In the first book of the a bible, we are told that the heavens are for signs and seasons (seasons of the harvest year), the harvest festivals being prophetic of the times God comes to us. In Revelation, the great sign in heaven uses the sun, moon, and stars to explain end time events, by referencing the imagery already explained in Genesis.

In Ezekiel 37, we see “The stick of Joseph”. It speaks also of the stick of Judah. These are the “staffs” of a Shepard king, a sign of authority. Both of these rods are Messiah. In this passage, God speaks of combining the two into one. There is only one Lord.

This year, 2020, has been a roller coaster ride of prophesy, after a two years of relative peace, prophecy wise. Everyone in the Christian world assumes this is the year Christ returns, but the last four years are spoken of by Jesus in a parable of a fig tree. In Luke 13:6, Jesus said a man went to look for fruit on his fig tree, but found none. (Who is the fig tree?) The man complained to his gardener, that he had looked for three years, and told the gardener to cut it down. The gardener said to give it one more year, and if then, he found no fruit, the gardener would cut it down. Right now is the time that God is looking for fruit on his fig tree. Will there be fruit by next year from HIS fig tree?

Knowing GOD

1. 
   
   
   
   Jeremiah 31:33-34
   “Instead, this is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after those days”—the Lord’s declaration. “I will put My teaching within them and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be My people. No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord, because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest,” declares the Lord. “For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.

   Psalm 91:14-16

   Because he is lovingly devoted to Me, I will deliver him; I will protect him because he knows My name. When he calls out to Me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble. I will rescue him and give him honor. I will satisfy him with a long life and show him My salvation
   Jeremiah 9:23-24
   This is what the Lord says:The wise man must not boast in his wisdom; the strong man must not boast in his strength; the wealthy man must not boast in his wealth. But the one who boasts should boast in this, that he understands and knows Me—that I am Yahweh, showing faithful love, justice, and righteousness on the earth, for I delight in these things. This is the Lord’s declaration.
   

   
   
   
   

Elijah’s Here!

Malachi 4:4 “Remember the instruction of Moses My servant, the statutes and ordinances I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel. 5 Look, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the great and awesome Day of the Lord comes. 6 [c]And he will turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers. Otherwise, I will come and strike the land[d] with a curse.” (Elijah went to Horeb too!)

This marxist supremacy marching through the streets of America, is the milita of the democratic socialists, a reincarnation of the KKK, sent out to intimidate the constituents. They lay claim to a morality superior to that of Christian America, and ignore any evidence to the contrary. After all, this is the religion of politics, with it’s own saints and dogma. Dissension will NOT be tolerated, You will be canceled! America is now the battered woman, still believing that she can change her abuser’s mind, that she, somehow, still can control the narrative, of her own culpability, by doing “better”! She keeps tolerating her accusers and their violence!

There is strong liberal jewish sympathy and support, even financially, for these so called “victims” of “systemic racism”! Don’t jews know what it is to be the most persecuted of all peoples? Aren’t the Christians, in this beleaguered mentality, the source of all their woes? And seemingly logically deduced from there, hasn’t the success of western culture, been at the expense of “minorities”? Isn’t the success of the west rotten at it’s core? So Israel is persuaded that the blame is not her own. Her defense had become to blame others for her sins. Christians have now become the scapegoat!

Anger at Israel is the only option, because Elijah has done battle with the prophets of Baal (islame) and defeated them, but Israel is unpersuaded! She has NOT turned back from her folly! Her enemy is not Christians, it is her God! Will she spit in the face of the one who would rescue her? Everything that happens to her comes from God, for the sinful decisions of God’s enemies cannot succeed unless God has determined that they will stand!

And this is the story of Elijah (a gentile!), after he had all the prophets of Baal killed, he went into the wilderness,  sustained by the Angel of the Lord, the very person of God, and then went to commune with God on a mountain (Horeb). After the mountain, Israel of God is appointed Elijah’s successor. Right after, the king of Israel makes a covenant with the defeated, and cursed one, to give the adversary his freedom. Then comes the misappropriation of the land and vineyard of Israel, by a deluded king. So the king dies in battle and Elijah leaves this world supernaturally. THEN, Israel is attacked by Persia....

Jeremiah 6:16-19 This is what the Lord says: Stand by the roadways and look. Ask about the ancient paths: Which is the way to what is good? Then take it and find rest for yourselves. But they protested, “We won’t!” I appointed watchmen over you and said: Listen for the sound of the ram’s horn. But they protested, “We won’t listen!” Therefore listen, you nations and you witnesses, learn what the charge is against them. Listen, earth! I am about to bring disaster on these people, the fruit of their own plotting, for they have paid no attention to My word. They have rejected My instruction.

Tu B’av

Today is a day of weddings, a day of forgiveness, and a day of resurrection from the grave! He will quench our thirst for the living Water of His Word, by the revealing of His Revelation, which is an implementation of the unveiling of His identity. It is done at His appointed time., the time of the joyful festival to the Lord at Shiloh!

There is still the false witness of the ten kings, for a Israel to deal with! The messiah they present, along with the treaty which he affirms, will be a covenant with hell and death! To witness against this anti-messiah, there will be two faithful witnesses, in front of the temple, which the corrupt one will build. There will also be the young men who are called and marked, to be delivered and saved from what is about to happen. Now begins the harvest of judgement, where The Almighty comes out of His dwelling, to administer reparations and repair, by His wrath.

Starting Fires

When confronted, is our pain, with His grace, then is birthed our meaning, by the ignition of the conflagration, for the greater the pressure and urgency, the more complete and satisfying His answer. He has breathed in our question (there is only one), and exhaled His answer, which is the Angel of His Presence. On the wings of the wind of His Word (the Logos), we are thrilled to be carried in His embrace! This is the reason for our existence, to be satisfied by Him!

We are all just pieces of His puzzle. When we come together, the full revelation of God is revealed! No matter how overwhelming is the seeming massive unveiling given to each of us as individuals (and He will not give us more than we can bear), it is only together that we understand.

Now satan is trying to keep us apart. There is a “pandemic.” There are the riots. There is cancel culture. When we went to an open air service, there were police cars all around us, and helicopters and drones over us. This is nothing more than intimidation, and trying to inspire fear.

Now the value of the meaning we seek, is only as great as the price we are willing to pay to attain it. Remember that all love is of God? He is it’s author and it’s source. Love is felt in community, when we commune with God and our brothers. Stand up in unison, brothers and sisters! God is calling warriors to be on their knees, together, calling for justice from above! Love produces justice and what is right! Love produces freedom, so speak the truth in love, and speak it freely! Speak with the authority Jesus gives! Our fight is for Truth, which is HIS Name!
