Do you know the Bible is God's Holy Word? Do you know it is
-
inspired, in errant, and infallible? If so, like, share,
-
subscribe and support this podcast. So we are mere Nathal Ministries and now Redemption
-
draweth nigh. Welcome, Ladies and gentlemen, Welcome to the program. We
-
are your host jose and Matthew. Tonight, we are going to start with
-
the Book of a Sense and this is coming on the tales of one of
-
the great prophecies of the millennial Reign of Christ. This much is true in
-
time. Bob prophecy clearly states that during the millennial Reign of Christ, Latti
-
Dottie, everybody will go up to celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles every year.
-
If they don't on their land, there will be no rain, not one
-
drop. So this is pretty important for us to realize. This is the
-
reason why the Book of a Sense exists. And it's not until you point
-
this out to people that lots of times I've had people get really upset when
-
they didn't realize that this book even existed. Now, this is pretty easy
-
in itself, but it's a lot more easier to see than let us say,
-
the apocalypse of Isaiah. If you don't know the structure of Isaiah,
-
if you're not familiar with the text, you can just read right through it
-
not even realize that it's there. And the Book of Asath because they're scattered
-
out here and there, well, I mean not really scattered out but you've
-
got you've got Isaiah, that book scattered, the Book of asaf and the
-
Psalms. It's scattered. It's it's the first one's in fifty and then it's
-
another series several chapters later. But this right here is really easy to see
-
because it's all in a row. It's chapters thirty four, those fifteen chapters
-
in a row, solid and everyone and then say it's a book of a
-
sense. But if you're not looking at the Hebrew, you don't have the
-
connection back to the Book of Zachariah. When it tells you, and when
-
people realize that, they they really do get upset. I mean, especially
-
you're old timers, especially people that are let's say above forty five years old,
-
that's been studying the Bible their whole life. They've been Christians their whole
-
life. You tell them this and they can get upset and not upset at
-
the teacher. They get upset, like, you know, why is it
-
You're always teaching me so much. I mean, I particularly had somebody tell
-
me this that was a good friend of mine that his wife went on to
-
be a pastor, and he would become really upset because I had been teaching
-
him so much that it was here that this cross the threshold whenever I'd done
-
that particular study and Zachariah pointed out that this feast is coming, why it's
-
coming? He was upset because he realized that that he is all the schooling
-
he took, because he had went to an institution of higher learning or theology,
-
and he didn't realize till then that everything was way off. It was
-
basically entertainment. It wasn't edification that he had been paying for. So,
-
you know, let's just take a look at this. Just the structure of
-
it's going to blow you away, because it's like a gigantic sea saw.
-
Because take note. The middle book of a Sense is one twenty seven.
-
It was written by Solomon. Two of them are written by David before,
-
and two are written by David after. Let me say that again. Psalms
-
on twenty seven is written by Solomon, Psalms one twenty two and one twenty
-
fours by David You go past Psalms one twenty seven. Psalms one thirty one
-
and one thirty three are both by David. You'll take note that's a pretty
-
interesting structure how it'll go, David skip one David both times, the one
-
before and the one after the one that Solomon does. This book has one
-
hundred and one versus in it, and it starts out in a way that,
-
oh, they want you do that. You know, this is pretty
-
short. I mean, this is one of the shortest chapters you and I've
-
ever done. Right, Yes, I mean this is seven verses. Surely
-
this is easy money. What did you find with this chapter? What stuck
-
out to you? Well, Matthew, the immediately you right out to start.
-
Obviously, it starts off with someone crying out to the Lord, but
-
it's specifically he specifically says that he answers him, and and that to me
-
told me that this event was taking place before the Great Day of the Lord.
-
Before he stands up, because we've read over and over how when he's
-
off of his tone and he comes down here, he's not going to be
-
able to answer our prayers. And so right to me, right off the
-
bat, that told me that this was talking about the birthdays, because sometimes
-
it's kind of it's kind of, you know, a tricky Matthew to say,
-
Okay, are we talking about birth things? Are we talking about the
-
great tribulation? You know? Is this is this when the beast is going
-
after the rest of our children? You know? Is this during the days
-
when everything's topsy turvy and you're in the you're you're ten days of testing,
-
those forty five days that you're waiting to get gathered together? Right? What
-
what? What timeframe are we talking about? And so that to me,
-
that that set the tone for me, and let me know what this chapter
-
but where this one at least was specifically starting off at. Oh, you
-
know, that's a good way, that's a good segue. You're absolutely correct,
-
because well, one of these verses here, it's if you're not looking
-
at the Hebrew, you don't know where it's going to take you. But
-
when it does take you there, it takes you to the days of Elijah,
-
and the New Testament screams to the top of its lungs. Twice two
-
verses say that the days of Elijah was exactly three years and six months correct.
-
Okay, so that is the time of the Great Tribulation. That is
-
the time of the Great tribulation. The Great tribulation is Time's time, and
-
have a time and the particular place where this takes you. It's so prophetic
-
and if you don't know what you're looking for, to just go right over
-
your head. So it's also amazing to me that after thirteen years, one
-
of our sisters, Jenny, she finally sent me a timeline. Now I've
-
been telling people to do this for over a decade. Now, put together
-
a timeline and let me know, let me look at it, we'll talk
-
about it. Well, Jenny actually did this, after almost fourteen years.
-
He sends me a link to Google doc and there it is. And I
-
said, oh my goodness. You didn't share this with anybody, did she?
-
Or did you? And she said no. I said, well,
-
i'll call you when I get off work. So we brought up Google Docs
-
and we looked at it together. I was on my laptop, she was
-
at her on her laptop at her house. And I don't know how after
-
thirteen years she had that much wrong. But just like that statement, how
-
you put it. Where's this at? I mean, ladies and gentlemen,
-
if you don't have the timeline down solidly, you're just going to be chasing
-
your own tail. And it was really hard for me to believe that after
-
all of the teaching that I had done to Jenny, she couldn't see it.
-
And I was fully expecting her timeline to be spot on. I mean,
-
Jose, how many times have we discussed the timeline? Right? But
-
you give a valid question, where is this at? What are you talking
-
about? When I make mention of the twenty three hundred? Does anybody know
-
what the twenty three hundred is comprised of? Because the Angel delivered some information
-
to that particular timeline that if you don't know, oh my goodness, it's
-
really going to confuse you. So this is a very good point. And
-
we can use the Hebrew here to use just one word here in these seven
-
verses. And the thing that will blow you away is it's right smack dab
-
in the middle. It's right in the middle that if you can grab a
-
hold of it, then all of a sudden you know what's going on.
-
Because the days of Elijah are the days of Jezebel, the days of Elijah
-
are the days of the Zara Path widow. The days of Elijah are the
-
days of a hab. And remember the days of Elijah was spent at the
-
zero path woman's house, which was in the country that was being ruled by
-
jezb Bell's father, eth Ball the second. All these things are true.
-
They're true. Literally, Elijah was sent to the Zarapath widow's house that was
-
inside the kingdom of her dad. All these things are true. So sticking
-
something right here in the middle that will lead you back there is absolutely perfect.
-
Boy, it tells you so much. That tells you so much,
-
It really does. But I can go on and on about this technical details
-
for way too long. I've already been on here rambling for ten minutes,
-
so we probably should go ahead and read it, right, yep, So
-
before I get started, you got any further further comments, No, not
-
right now, Matthew. All right, So I think that you read last
-
time, correct? Is that right? I think that's what happened. So
-
let me just take a minute here and jump over there. I need to
-
get some things out of my way and just look at the text itself.
-
All right, ladies, and gentlemen from the New American Standard Bible, the
-
nineteen ninety five update, as is the mainstay of this ministry. Psalms one
-
twenty A prayer for deliverance from the treacherous. Now this is just the heading
-
in the New American Standard Bible that was not part of the text itself.
-
So Verse one a song of a sense in my trouble, I cried to
-
the Lord, and he answered me, deliver my soul, O Lord,
-
from lying lips from a deceitful tongue. What shall be given to you?
-
And what more shall be done to you? You deceitful tongue, sharp arrows
-
of the warrior, with burning coals of the broom tree. What was me?
-
For I sojourn in messic, for I dwell among the tinsive kadar.
-
Too long has my soul had its dwelling with those who hate peace? For
-
when I speak, but when I speak, they are for war. Let
-
me say that again, I missed it. I am for peace, but
-
when I speak, they are for war. Whose that your thoughts well,
-
Matthew, Like I said, I took my cue from the fact that he
-
says that the Lord is answering him at this time. So I read this
-
in the timeframe of the of the birth pangs. And so when I read
-
the first, you know, the first couple of verses, the first three
-
verses, that's reminding me of well, like like Jesus said, right,
-
brother against brother, father against son, this time where we're going to see
-
your own family, including your church family, turn against you, accusing you,
-
persecuting you. That little tea tribulation that we read about in Matthew twenty
-
four, those birth pangs. So that's kind of where where I was starting
-
to read this Matthew and how he's crying out the Lord, you know,
-
when when are you gonna come God? When are you gonna When are you
-
gonna start this off? When are you going to kick off the seals?
-
When when is the six seal event going to happen? So that I can
-
be done with this? And and that kind of takes us to verse four
-
where we see the broom tree, the juniper tree, takes us right back
-
to the one Kings nineteen like you mentioned, where essentially you have Elijah saying
-
the same thing, saying, you know these these Jazabelle keeps coming after me.
-
I'm you know, I might as well just sit here and and die
-
because under the juniper tree. Because I'm done with this. You know,
-
well, I've talked about this so much as of late here, I've did
-
a series on the three and a half, which this is all over that.
-
But ladies and general, lest let me read here a little bit from
-
One Kings, chapter nineteen and verse four comes up in verse four and five.
-
This broom tree or juniper tree the same thing in Hebrew, just some
-
translations will use different words. So take note. Once you realize about these
-
lying lips and what's happening here, it's going to rattle your cage. This
-
is going to take you back to the same point in time, starting from
-
verse one. Now, ahabto Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how
-
he had killed all the prophets with the sword. Then Jezabel sent messenger to
-
Elijah, saying, so may the gods do to me, and even more
-
if I did not make your life as the life of one of them by
-
tomorrow about this time. And he was afraid and rose and ran for his
-
life, and came to Beersheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his
-
servant there. But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness and came
-
and sat down under a juniper tree, and he requested for himself that he
-
might die. He said, it is enough now, o Lord, take
-
my life, for I am not better than my father's. He lay down
-
and slept under the juniper tree, and behold there was an angel touching him
-
and said to him, arise and eat. Then he looked and behold there
-
was a hiss had a bake of a readcake baked on hot stones, and
-
a jar of water. So he ate and drank and lay down. The
-
angel of the Lord came again a second time and touched him and said,
-
oh, is it because the journey is too great for you. So he
-
rose and ate, drank, and went in the strength of that food forty
-
days and forty nights to orb the mountain of God. Now you realize what
-
Psalms one twenty is all about when you get this in it's context, and
-
you realize that, wait a minute, is this in reference to what happened
-
to Elt Because he was done, he'd had enough, right right, Jose,
-
Yeah, he did. And then all of a sudden, the Lord,
-
his God answers, and I love how he put it, he went,
-
in the strength of that food, another forty days and forty nights.
-
And boy, doesn't this harken to the forty five days of the twenty three
-
hundred? Yes, it does, Matthew. Now when I say that,
-
I hope everybody realizes that the endtime integers you get in Daniel chapter twelve,
-
they're part of the twenty three hundred. And when you realize that, he
-
says one and ninety and then he says, blessed is he who makes it
-
to the end of that timeframe, which is the end of the thirteen thirty
-
five. You realize that's forty five days. When you put that on top
-
of this, it'll rattle your cage. It'll rattle your cage when you know
-
the timeline. Now, all of the sudden, boy, this song makes
-
a whole lot of sense that someone twenty is going to be you remembering as
-
you go. It's going to be you remembering as you go, because,
-
like I said, Zachariah plainly declares, I don't care where you're at.
-
I don't care if you're living in Australia. You will go up to the
-
Feast of Tabernacles every single year for a thousand consecutive years. Yes you will.
-
And God did this message with just one word, just one word.
-
That's all he had to use for me to see it because I was familiar
-
with the text. But will say, what's your thoughts on when you put
-
these eight verses and couple them to the seven verses of Psalms? What's your
-
thoughts? Yeah? I think it fits perfect, Matthew, because you understand
-
the stress and the not only at first well, from the persecution, from
-
the birth pangs, that stress, that anxiety, that hope that you're going
-
to have for for God himself to come and save you, wondering. You
-
know, I've done everything right, Lord, you know I've I've been faithful,
-
and yet this, all this stuff is falling on my head, getting
-
to that point to where you're you're asking to die. And that's when that's
-
when God kicks it off, right, That's when he hears your prayer.
-
Right. How many times have we read in the Bible, Matthew, where
-
God says, the cries of my children have come up to me, the
-
cries of the mothers have come up to me. That's when he finally gets
-
up off his throne. That's when he finally does something, but without those
-
cries. You know, he if we're not crying out to him for all
-
the injustice, Matthew, he's he's I'm not I'm not gonna say he's not
-
going to do nothing, but that that prompts him, right, those cries,
-
those prayers, those times where we're we're compassionate for for those that are
-
hurting, those that are suffering, those that are being persecuted. When that
-
persecution falls on us, boy, that's that's when he finally gets up,
-
and that's when he finally sets this thing off, Matthew, That's when he
-
finally the six year old finally happens. That's uh, that first King's nineteen
-
fits in perfectly there in someone that's true. Yep, oh, it fits
-
exactly. When you know the timeline. Let's talk about this forty five days.
-
What's the big deal with those forty five days, ladies and gentlemen.
-
I'll tell you the Lord Jesus Christ is quite clear, quite plain. You
-
need to understand this. The abomination of desolation will be set up for forty
-
five days, Yes it will. I will tell you the riddle of the
-
twenty three hundred. You can only understand the answer to the twenty three hundred
-
from the Persian History of the Bible. Did I shock you? Not from
-
the Babylonian Okay, not from the Kingdom of Not from the consolidated monarchy under
-
David for Solomon. Not from the broken kingdom of Judah and Israel. Not
-
from the Babylonian. The only way you can get this is Ezra, hag
-
Guy and Zachariath. Those are written in the Persian History of the Bible from
-
Darius. Because it's there. Hagui is very plain that the first part of
-
the twenty three hundred is nine hundred and sixty five days, nine hundred and
-
sixty five days, so starts the ninety ninety days go by. At the
-
end of that one thousand, two ninety days, you got the abomination of
-
desolation gets set up, and the great Day of the Lord does not happen
-
for forty five days later. You do understand what we just read King chapter
-
nineteen, don't you? Does anybody remember what happened? Does anybody remember what
-
happened from this point, ladies and gentlemen, This is at the end of
-
the days of Elijah, Yes, it is. It's at the end of
-
the days of Elijah. Now remember, ladies and gentlemen, that God's response
-
to all this is, look, you have to go. And first off,
-
he's going to have to point his successor, which is Elishah. Is
-
everybody starting to remember what happens now? Yeah, this is the place where
-
the Lord said to him. And I'll read this, okay, you know
-
what, read a little bit about how upset Elijah was, and and you
-
know what, he did have good call to be, you know, upset.
-
You know, maybe i'd just I stopped at verse say, let me
-
go back to First King, chapter nineteen and pick it up in verse nine.
-
Then he came there to a cave and lodge there, and behold the
-
word of the Lord come to him. And he said, what are you
-
doing here? Elijah? He said, I've been very zealous for the Lord,
-
the God of Host, for the sons of Israel have forsaken your covenant,
-
corn down your alters, and killed your profits with the sword. And
-
I alone am left, and they seek my life to take it away.
-
So he said, go forth and stand on the mountain before the Lord.
-
And behold, the Lord was passing by the great and strong wind was trending
-
the mountains and breaking in pieces the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord
-
was not in the wind. And after the wind, an earthquake, but
-
the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake, a fire,
-
but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire, a
-
sound of gentle blowing. When Elijah heard it, he rapped his face in
-
his mantle and went out and stood at the entrance of the cave. And
-
behold, a voice came to him and said, what are you doing here,
-
Elijah? And he said, I have been very zealous for the Lord,
-
the God of Host, for the sons of Israel. I have forsaken
-
your covenant, torn down your altars, and killed your prophets with the sword
-
and eye alone and left, and they seek my life to take it away.
-
If you don't hear Psalms one twenty in this, you're disconnected from reality.
-
And if you're not hearing the future great day of the Lord, it's
-
because you're disconnected from the reality of the Bible, God's Holy Word fifteen.
-
The Lord said to him, go return on your way to the wilderness of
-
Damascus, and when you have arrived, you shall anoint Hazel over king over
-
Aram, and Jehu the son of Nimshi, you shall Annoin king over Israel,
-
and Elisha the son of Stephat, and I both Meanla, you shall
-
anoint as prophet in your place. And it shall come about. The one
-
who escapes from the sword of hazazal Jehu shall put to death, and the
-
one who escapes from the sword of Jaehu Elisha shall put to death. Yet
-
I will leave seven thousand in Israel, all the knees that have not bowed
-
to bel and every mouth that has not kissed him. Take note this seven
-
thousand. You need to look it up in the Book of Revelation, because
-
that's seven thousand God kills in the earthquake. He kills one man for everyone
-
who didn't bow their need to bail in the days of Elijah. Go ahead
-
and get you something to write with, something to write it down. What
-
I told you is true. So take note. This ends the days of
-
Elijah, because from here he goes to stop the drought. That's what happens
-
from here. This is systematic. Now we're not told what's the duration of
-
time between Elijah having his little chit shot here and everything else that happens.
-
We're really not told how many days it is, but if I was you,
-
you probably fairly well could put two and two together. So once you
-
do that, once you realize what's at play here, take note that this
-
was the very thing that Elijah was feeling when he cried out to God,
-
everybody's bad, right, Jose, Yes, he said, everybody's bad.
-
I'm the only one left. And that just ticked the Lord's square off.
-
The Lord said, is that right? Get yourself up there, get yourself
-
up there in that cave, and we're gonna have a chit chat. Right.
-
God didn't take that too kindly. No, No, you're not the
-
only one. I have seven thousand that have not bent the knee to bail
-
nor kissed him. So when you realize the Lord Jesus Christ himself repeatedly warned
-
you during this time, during the twenty three hundred, you're going to be
-
persecuted, right, Jose, Yes, who's going to betray you? Your
-
own family, Matthew, your own church, your own brothers. Now,
-
are you going to be harassed by pestilence? No? Do you have to
-
worry about plagues? Jose, No, you do not. Matthew the Lord
-
Jesus Christ never warned you about that, did Hey? He said you were
-
going to be persecuted, You are going to be hand over and they would
-
even kill you. And when they did, they would say they were thinking
-
that they were doing the service to God. Right. Correct, We are
-
literally describing exactly how Elijah felt seven verses and you stick just one word in
-
their right in the right place. Now, most people this would confuse them,
-
wouldn't it. Jose? Yes, I mean you bring up verse four.
-
Here, you bring up verse four. Let's try the KJV. Okay,
-
the KJV states it thus sharp arrows of the Mighty with coals of juniper.
-
They literally read, write pastor right. They don't even offer commentary on
-
it, do they. Jose, No, I've never heard this brought up.
-
Yeah, it's right there in the middle. And then it'll literally poke
-
you in the eye if you're looking at it, you know exactly what's being
-
said here. Now, what did you make of the next verse? Whate
-
was me that I sojourn in missig What do you make of that? Well,
-
obviously we know mesh from from Magog and Maygog, But I went ahead
-
and looked at the translation from meshek Matthew, and uh that all the definitions
-
I found was the word drawing out. And drawing out seems to me to
-
indicate that process before we're gathered, like like you have to draw everyone out
-
before you gather someone. So that drawing out process is where you're gonna it's
-
gonna be that point of difficulty, that point of persecution. Once you're gathered,
-
you're you're good, Matthew. Once once God's gathered you together, there
-
there's nothing that's gonna take him out of his out of his hand right.
-
But during that process, that drawing out process, I mean, we've been
-
told it's gonna be difficult, it's gonna be like the birth pains. It's
-
it's the exact same way when when the child is coming out of the birth
-
canal that moment of distress, that moment of trouble. So that's what I
-
got from that first part of that verse. Matthew. Oh, you're absolutely
-
right. You have to look at their root word to see what's going on
-
here. Let me take note. Let's go to the first usage of this
-
word. Well, that's usually a good thing to do, right. You
-
got to Genesis chapter thirty seven, verse twenty eight. Some of the Midianite
-
traders passed by, so they pulled him up and lifted Joseph out of the
-
pit. Are you confused, ladies and gentlemen. I bet you're setting here
-
thinking, Oh, they didn't do that. That was Joseph brothers, right,
-
ose right now, let me finish the verse. Those of you who
-
are not familiar with the Bible, God's Holy Word, because this is true.
-
I don't care what you think. What I'm getting ready to read this
-
is a gospel truth. This is what happened. Don't care what you say
-
happened, and sold him through the Ishmael lights for twenty shackles of silver.
-
Thus they brought Joseph into Egypt. You know, jose A lot of people
-
are mad. Right right before I finished the verse, they were calling me
-
a liar, right, yep, many nights didn't I'm not going to do
-
this. Joseph sold him into slavery, right right, Nope, let me
-
say that again. No, No, that's not what happened. This is
-
what happened. Okay, this is the first time this word is used in
-
the Bible, God's Holy Word to be drawn out. This is how Joseph
-
was drawn out of that pat Now, his brothers didn't throw him in the
-
Amen, Amen, he did, but it was the Midianites that drew him
-
out. Misshiack. This is exactly the perfect thing in relationship to Elijah,
-
because, oh, my goodness, do I have to remind everybody what happened.
-
He fled right, and he got to this one place, and he
-
left his servant there, and he kept fleeing right. And it said for
-
how long, ladies and gentlemen, in order for God to have this little
-
chit chat with Elijah. And remember, there was an earthquake, and there
-
was fire, and there was fireworks, and there was a stampede and all
-
that stuff. And then finally there was a gentle breeze and Elija had the
-
sense enough to cover up his face with his mantle and walk out and have
-
this chit chat. Elijah had just came from the incident with the prophets of
-
bell right hose. Yes, God had to draw him out of all that
-
stuff. That's how he found himself having a chit chat with the Lord is
-
God. That's why this word is here. And it's amazing to me that
-
you had to wherewithal to actually look to see well, really, so you're
-
just wanting to assume that messhak is that it is a person's name or place
-
name? What made it? It? Cur to you to look at its
-
etymology to find out because unize all those different stronge numbers comes from their little
-
jocks and tittles, right, correct, correct, So they'll take their jocks
-
and tittles and put it in there, and they'll make it five or six
-
different words, right, yes, they will. What made you think to
-
look at what the actual root word was they were using? Well, Matthew,
-
I mean, we we know men check, you know, it's always
-
lumped in there with Gog and Magog. But we know that the events of
-
God and Mega don't take place till after the Millennial Rain. So this can't
-
be talking about specifically that that that mescheck right, that that area, that
-
principality, that that's that's going to be that's talked about after the millennial reign
-
of Christ, right when when when Gog and Magod come up and they have
-
that final war. So so I just thought, well, let's let's see
-
what Meschek means, because maybe that's what God's trying to tell us instead of
-
instead of telling us a specific time that this is taking place. You know,
-
maybe he's He's given us an actual a name here at a definition and
-
another way to name this place. And and that's that's why I went to
-
there, because the trying to tell it to the to the biblical versus where
-
the name meshcheck is used didn't make sense on the timeline. So that's when
-
I went to the definition. And that's when I when I saw that that
-
word drawing out And again yeah, I did. I did come across that
-
that use of that word in in the Joseph in the Pit story and that
-
and that made perfect sense with the timeline what what we're talking about here?
-
Uh? And then again it's it's it's having that understanding of the timeline,
-
Matthew, that that helped me in this in this psalm, what God is
-
actually talking about. So if he's if he's drawing us out, if he's
-
drawing us from all the four corners of the earth, then it's right before
-
that time that were gathered and when and when it's we've just been told that
-
that process is is going to be painful, it's not going to be easy.
-
We we've we've got to endure that process. So what do you make
-
the tints of Kadar? What what do you like? So my first thought,
-
Matthew, you know Kadar when I looked up the definition because I did
-
the definition on Meshick, I came up with a with a dark or or
-
or blackness some of the different words that were used for for Kadar. And
-
my first thought was the outer darkness. But I couldn't quite tie that in
-
to this name, but that this was speaking about because we're not Christ,
-
We're not quite there on the outer darkness time frame, but it is,
-
you know, it's a dark time when I mean, that's exactly what Elijah
-
was describing what he was going through. You know, he was seeing the
-
prophets of the Lord being slaughd. He was seeing the altars being destroyed,
-
you know, the althars of God, everything just everything that that to him
-
represented the Lord was being torn down. And that's what we're told about is
-
going to happen during the birth. Thanks Matthew, during those twenty three hundred
-
days. That's exactly what what's going to happen take place. So you got
-
your Bible handy, I got my online Bible. Yeah, okay, so
-
jump over to First King's Chapter eighteen, verse forty five, First Kings Chapter
-
eighteen, verse forty five, and read it for me. All right,
-
in a little while, the sky grew black with clouds and wind, and
-
there was a heavy shower, and they have road and went to Jezreel.
-
So I appreciate you. You read how many words there was around black?
-
I said grew black? Yes, it said the sky grew black. No,
-
No, I'm looking at the Hebrew. That says Kadar. Heymen,
-
that says Cadoll. I don't think I know. I'm telling you what it
-
says. I'm looking at it. So, ladies and gentlemen, if you
-
would only familiarize yourself with the Bible, God's holy Word, if he'd only
-
familiarize yourself with the text. God always makes himself perfectly clear. He really
-
does, He really does. The KJV puts it an interesting way, Matthew.
-
It says the heaven was black. That's the heavens or the Blackwell.
-
Yeah, but, ladies and gentlemen, So ended the three and a half
-
years of drought, right yep. Now read the next verse. Read verse
-
forty six. Then the hand of the Lord was on Elijah, and he
-
girded up his loins and outran Ahab to Jezreel. You might say he got
-
his hinds feed. Amen. Amen. If you need a hint, you
-
ain't got a clue. Let me say that again, just to make sure
-
you understand what I said. If you need a hint, you ain't got
-
a clue. If you were reading the first chapter in the Book of a
-
Sense and you thought it was just a bunch of random verses that really didn't
-
make any sense, I want you to listen to my voice. Because the
-
Lord, now, he is God, and the Bible is his holy Word.
-
And if you think he wastes his time by just randomly putting verses together
-
and putting them in chapters and putting those chapters in order, you don't know
-
that. You begin with the Bible, God's holy Word by making it a
-
lamp into your feet. But when you grow up, you take that lamp
-
and turn it into a light into your path, and the light is projected
-
out into the future. Now, if you don't do that, you don't
-
know what's to come. And if you don't know what's to come, oh
-
my goodness, are you in for a world to hurt. Jose Amen,
-
You're in for a world of hurt because how many words have we covered?
-
This is just three words? Right, yeah, yep. First we talked
-
about the broom tree, right or some translations, says Juniper, Right.
-
Yeah. Then we talked about well, two things that nobody thought that's really
-
what they were, because they've been misdirected by translation. But meshik means something.
-
I mean three words, right, I mean this didn't take a rocket
-
scientists degree, did it? No, it didn't. Matthew, do these
-
verses make sense to you now? Absolutely meant when when you've made it into
-
the Kingdom of Heaven. Now this so you know, ladies and gentlemen,
-
the Kingdom of Heaven is on earth. It is when that magical place in
-
time, when, and the only place in time when the Lord's prayer comes
-
true, because only during the one thousand millennial reign in Christ it's only then
-
that God will will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Amen.
-
Amen, No other time, just that one, No other time,
-
just that one. And when you're going up to the Feast of Tabernacles,
-
believe me when I say you are going to remember anxiously waiting for this day
-
that Elijah went through, because those forty five days are going to seem like
-
forever. Jose, Yep, you know what does Matthew? Chapter two?
-
No, let's not talk about chapter and verse. What did the Lord Jesus
-
Christ tell you to do? Jose? As soon as that abomination of desolations
-
have been set up? What you supposed to do? You're supposed to flee
-
into the hills. Well, what if you missed the rapture train. I'm
-
not laughing, yeah, I mean I know what this generation has been taught.
-
You're supposed to hunker down, right, Yep. You're supposed to get
-
as many beans, bullets, and bullion as you can, and you're a
-
bunker before you raptured out of this mess. Right, Yes, that is
-
exactly what they say, right right, So why are you saying that Jesus
-
said to flee. I'm just reading my Bible. Matthew. That's right,
-
because you've learned you need to take that lamp and turn it into a light.
-
Ladies and gentlemen, the Lord Jesus Christ told you that you're going to
-
know an abomination of desolation is set up. He's expecting you to know the
-
timeline, and he tells you to run for the hills, and not only
-
that. Amazingly enough, he's already told you what you're supposed to do when
-
you get to the top of that elevation, doesn't he Jose, Yes,
-
ladies and gentlemen. I fear for you if you don't know any of this,
-
I really do. I fear for you if you've never had the wherewithal
-
to put together that one of the reasons why everyone's gonna hate you, because
-
you're the only one not getting sick. You can't seem to be hungry for
-
some reason, Jose, how hungry have you been? Let me ask you
-
that a different way. What's the longest you ever been without food? I
-
couldn't even tell you, Matthew, now more than twenty four hours. I
-
can tell you that for sure, Boy, you can try out nine days
-
because I'm here to tell you. It will change your thinking. It will
-
completely alter your perspective, Jose, Amen, and ladies and gentlemen. When
-
people figure out that you're not getting sick and you're not, you don't seem
-
to be hungry, and your lips aren't trapped as if you How is it
-
you've been drinking water? Ladies, and gentlemen, the Book of a Sense
-
is important because in telling you what you're going to be singing about as you
-
go up to the feast of Cobernacles inside of your commemorating what happened, it
-
will prepare you for what's to come. Don't you understand? That's how things
-
work. If you're celebrating one thing in the future, it helps you to
-
prepare for why it is you're celebrating that it's over. Amen. Amen,
-
I mean that doesn't take a whole lot of extra thought process does at Jose?
-
No three words? I wonder what would happen if I picked another word?
-
Jose, Do you think we have time for that? Because I don't
-
think we do. I don't think we do. Let me ask you,
-
so, have you taken a look at the last two verses? No,
-
but I was looking at him right now. But no, I have not
-
dug into the Matthew. No, you were looking at him right now when
-
I said that. Yes, it sounds kind of strange, doesn't Yes,
-
it does. Have you tried looking at them in the septuagen maybe that would
-
shed some light on where this is going. You haven't. Nope? Really,
-
well, let me read this out of the Thompson's translation, it says
-
a little bit differently. It says that my soul hath so long wellt with
-
them who hate peace. I was for peace, but when I spoke,
-
they attacked me without provocation. You know, Jose, how would you think
-
that everything goes just stir crazy during those birth pains? Have you ever talked
-
with somebody like this? No, Matthew, you haven't interesting someone that just
-
just insanely insanely a taxi or something like that. Is that what you're talking
-
about? Oh, somebody that is just rabbit against anybody. It doesn't have
-
to be about you, right, I mean people who are rabbit, people
-
who are gnashing their teeth people for all intents and purposes. They're psychotic,
-
right, And it doesn't matter what you say. Pay For example, have
-
you ever met a full blown tree hugger? No, I haven't, Matthew.
-
Imagine if you will. I've actually had people work under me. I
-
was their boss. One in particular, just by happenstance outside of her place
-
of employment, a dog got hit by a car. This person went rabid.
-
They said that the person should be charged with murder. Now, it
-
didn't help. The simple fact that she was a multiple abortionist. Oh yeah,
-
I said that, right, Jose. And this psycho. I mean
-
it was to the point I almost sent her home. She could not contain
-
herself. She was almost foaming at the mouth. I mean, I thought
-
she was going to charge outside and grab this poor person that obviously didn't hit
-
this dog on purpose. Ladies and gentlemen, there is coming a time during
-
the birth pains. Why do you think the whole world goes to I mean,
-
it blows me away. How people will just think that the Lord Jesus
-
Christ was just lying in talking about this time. Did he not say there
-
will be wars and rumors of wars? Did he not say that? Yes?
-
He did? So what I mean, what's the first two steals,
-
Hose? Yeah, exactly that, Matthew. So the first one is war,
-
right yes? The second one is civil war? Right? Yes,
-
Ladies and gentlemen. If you need a hint us to why Verses six and
-
seven end the first chapter the Book of a sense you're disconnected from the reality
-
of the Bible, God's holy words. You have no idea of what's coming
-
down the barrel. Because I assure you, when the Lord Jesus Christ says
-
in two different places, Matthew chapter twenty four and Revelation chapter six, about
-
the whole world being stirred up and killing each other. I mean, these
-
people are psychotic. If they're not getting together in groups and killing other people,
-
they're killing each other if you don't believe what he said, and sometimes
-
that confuses people. Look, Matthew chapter twenty four is the Lord Jesus Christ
-
talking. And if you were not aware of this, it's not revelations.
-
It was never plural. It is the revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ.
-
He gave it to his Angel, and his angel related verbatim to John.
-
So whether you like it or not, revelation is red letter if you have
-
a red letter edition Bible and Matthew twenty four, right, Jose, Yes,
-
Just imagine, ladies and gentlemen, what lies in front of you in
-
the next fourteen chapters of the Book of a sense, because if you didn't
-
know, it is extremely important for you to realize that everything God does is
-
with shadow and silhouette. And if you're celebrating something being over, hey,
-
no, he is by extrapolation preparing you for what's coming. Because He just
-
gives you the narrative over and over and over and over and over. He
-
just gives you the narrative over and over and over. For example, Hose,
-
do you remember when you and I did the Anastasis psalm? Yes?
-
I wonder how many people remember which psalm that is. I'm asking you that
-
for a reason, ladies, gentlemen, because when I sat down with Jenny
-
the other day, there's no way she didn't know every job in tittle to
-
that timeline. There's no way. If you don't know which song was the
-
Anastasis psalm, you better figure it out, Amen, Jose Amen, Matthew,
-
you're closing comments. The only thing I want to add, Matthew,
-
was specifically in relating to the last two verses of Someone twenty. I'm going
-
to take us right back to First Kings nineteen and you eight. Chapter eighteen
-
was all about, you know, Elijah and the prophets of Bail, and
-
God showed everyone who he was behind, and Elijah slew the prophets of bail.
-
And they have went and told Jezebel everything that happened. And what does
-
Jezebel say? Okay, so Jezebel here is the woman when she plays the
-
harlot. So that's in relation to us as the church when we play the
-
harlot. And this is what Jezebel says, So may the gods do to
-
me, and even more if I do not make your life as the life
-
of one of them by tomorrow about this time. And that word God's,
-
Matthew is Eloheim, She's boy. This verse is so prophetic. But this
-
is what's going to happen within the church, Matthew, when you have that
-
part of the woman that's playing the harlot, and it's going to try to
-
go after that woman who's being faithful. So the fact that God takes us
-
back here to the story of Elijah and aappen Jezebel, it's again, I'm
-
blown away that these seven verses can show us so much. Matthew. I'm
-
just blown away. That's a good thing. I only covered three words.
-
Huh Amen, Amen, all right, pray us out of here. Ose,
-
dear heavenly Father, whom we love and serve, and whom we give
-
eternal thanks for allowing us to come together as your ecclesia, as your church.
-
Lord. I asked once again that you help us understand what you've shown,
-
what you've given us here in your word, that you allow us to
-
put aside our troubles, that you allow us to put aside everything we've been
-
taught previously, all of our thoughts, health beliefs, and that we actually
-
sit and listen to what you're showing us, because you are faithful, Father,
-
and you will tell us what is to come, and you will tell
-
us what we need to be doing and what we will be doing in preparation
-
for your coming and the coming of your son and Lord. I asked that
-
everything that you're showing us is not just stay within the ecclesia, that you
-
allow us to share with the lost, that you allow us to use your
-
words to bring in more sheep into your flock, Father, and that you
-
help us to prepare that flock for your coming. And we ask all this
-
in the name of your Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
-
Amen, Amen and Amen. Until next time, ladies and gentlemen, God
-
bless God Speak. Thank you for listening to Marinath the Ministries with Matthew Miller.
