Welcome everybody welcome to the psalms bible study with matthew
-
and baby cakes i'm gonna do you know it's it's
-
highly questionable there's probably two contenders here either this is
-
the most famous passage in the word or it's john
-
3 16 probably close neck and neck there.
-
It's it's definitely a lot of people's favorite you know
-
like You don't like how there's certain colors that tend
-
to be a lot of people's favorite, like blue, purple. Right.
-
Right. Yeah. Same, same thing, same type of thing. But
-
what is amazing is, is when you look at the
-
cross references for this year, there's none, right?
-
I didn't notice that. I just, it's, it's a comforting,
-
it is comforting to read it just for your current situation, but.
-
I'm excited to see what your take on this is
-
concerning prophecy. Because I know that you're going to have
-
something to say on that as we normally do.
-
Absolutely. And this is, well, wow.
-
I don't think people really realize how important this is
-
in the backdrop of Bible prophecy. And I don't realize
-
that these things will be fulfilled for us, well, for
-
45 days. That comment probably shocks people, but literally speaking,
-
the word is pretty forthright in telling you that after
-
the abomination of desolation, we've got 45 long, hard days.
-
Yep.
-
And in that, the promises made to David will extend
-
to us as he was fleeing through the wilderness, of course,
-
in 1 Samuel chapter 23. That's where this is talking about.
1 Samuel 23 chapter mention
-
It says that he was in the hills of the woods.
-
When it makes reference here to being his shepherd, literally
-
in that chapter, as Saul is pursuing him, repeatedly, David
-
inquires of the Lord and the Lord gives him literally
-
line by line answers. This is the only way we're
-
going to survive once the man of sin has made
-
his transition. He's accepted the deal. He's performed the Passover
-
abominable desolation and has become the son of perdition. There
-
will be no escaping him. There just won't be. And
-
he will be hunting us down. And this is why,
-
this is why, of course, Revelation chapter 12 states that, well,
Revelation 12 chapter mention
-
of course, Jesus stated it. Jesus himself stated that once
-
the abomination of desolation happens, you must flee to the wilderness.
-
So you're telling us that being, there's no way that
-
we can be prepared for this. There's no way that
-
we can stock up or have certain things available or,
-
you know, Be at the ready for, you know, other
-
than spiritually. Is that what you're saying? That there's nothing
-
we can really do?
-
Well, I can tell you what Jesus said. Is that
-
going to be a good enough answer for you?
-
Of course.
-
Okay. Then this is what Jesus Christ says. Therefore, when
-
you see the abomination of desolation spoken by Daniel the
-
prophet standing in the holy place, whoever reads, let them understand.
-
Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
-
This is exactly what David did in 1 Samuel chapter 23. Okay.
1 Samuel 23 chapter mention
-
Let those who are on the housetop not go down
-
to take anything out of the house.
-
Well, they got to go down in order to get
-
out of the house.
-
But not take anything with them.
-
Okay.
-
Let him who is in the field not go back
-
to get his clothes. Okay. So what is this telling you, Rachel?
-
You cannot prepare. There's no such thing as a bug-out bag.
-
If you have a bug-out bag, that's where your faith is. Therefore,
-
you will be absolutely terrified when this event happens. So,
-
if you have your faith in that bug-out bag, when
-
it happens, you're going to be so completely wracked with fear,
-
you're going to Of course, barricade the doors and windows.
-
That's what you're going to be.
-
Well, you're going to be tempted to not do what
-
this says. You're going to be tempted to go get
-
that bug out bag.
-
Yes, and you're going to be tempted to hunker down.
-
That's what most of us would do, right? We would
-
be so afraid that we'd lock the doors, lock the windows,
-
and start trying to put boards or move furniture in
-
front of the doors. That's our natural thing to do.
-
And Jesus Christ is literally telling you, You cannot do that.
-
You must flee. You must flee. So, no, Rachel, you
-
can't prepare for it.
-
And yet there are things that people have to prepare
-
for in certain parts of the country, like hurricanes and
-
things like that that happen. They have to be prepared
-
with a bag to take off. In that event, there's
-
nothing wrong with having a bug out bag for those
-
kind of things. We're not talking about that.
-
Yes.
-
I just want to clarify that. Yes.
-
So, yeah, we're not talking about a bug out bag
-
for an earthquake or a tornado. You know, no, no, no.
-
This is going to be a supernatural event in which
-
everybody will know that Passover desolation has occurred. Everybody will know. So, no,
-
we're not talking about that.
-
So, we won't have to be watching the news.
-
We'll just know. We will know. We will know. How
-
will we know? Well, honey, you know, at this time,
-
you need to realize that by this time, on this day,
-
the four spirits of heaven would have been pouring out
-
the latter rain for 1,290 days. Believe me, honey, you'll know.
-
The Holy Spirit will tell you. Okay, so that being
-
the case, he gives you examples here of the people
-
who's really going to be terrified and under what certain
-
circumstances you'll really be tempted. But anyway, we're not going
-
to get into that. We're going to, you know, we
-
haven't even read the first verse yet.
-
This is a basic course. This is Psalm 101, not
-
Psalm 102.
-
Right. Well, actually, I could probably do Psalm 102. You know, 202.
-
I know, but you can't, though. Yes, ma'am. This is
-
the basics.
-
Okay. As Rachel reels me back in, yes, I don't
-
need to give information overload. But anyway, getting back to
-
the point, this psalm will literally be fulfilled when the
-
abomination of desolation occurs. That's when this is really going
-
to happen and we're really going to spend 45 days
-
in flight as there's war in the heavens, and as
-
soon as that war is decided, then Operation Eagle's Wings
-
will take place, and we'll be taken to this.
-
There I go again. You know, let's read it. It
-
is so comforting, but Once you realize when the ultimate
-
fulfillment of this is, it is extremely comforting. And you
-
realize he's categorically telling you, you have nothing to worry about.
-
You don't have to worry about what you're going to
-
eat or where you're going to sleep. He takes care
-
of all of your necessities, right? He's going to take
-
care of everything. And yeah, that's going to be scary
-
if you don't, you know, anybody who's at least got
-
a tent will be extremely tempted to, you know, pull
-
down the attic stairs and run up in the attic
-
and get the tent, right? But they can't. They can't
-
do that.
-
So. Or bring your piece of water or your toilet paper.
-
Your toilet paper. Oh, no.
-
Yeah.
-
I can see you going back in the house to
-
get toilet paper. Oh my goodness. Everybody else talks about
-
stockpiling gold bullion.
-
No, I'm just referring to in 2020 when that was
-
the first thing people went for.
-
Oh my goodness, they really did. yeah um my goodness
-
only you would see that um but yeah it's you
-
have to realize that and you and i talked about this.
-
Said she's got her toilet paper ready.
-
Too oh no so i guess that's all you can say, guys,
-
is that make sure you take a woman with you.
-
All right.
-
So anyway, he tells you here, and we talked about
-
this privately the other day. Everybody has to realize why
-
you're alive. Society wants to tell you that you're alive
-
because all of your needs have been met. That's not true. Okay?
-
The only reason why you're alive is because God has
-
put his breath of life in you. You don't need
-
water to live.
-
You don't.
-
You don't need food to live. You don't need shelter
-
to live. You die when God says so. I mean,
-
this is common knowledge even in the secular world. You
-
can watch all kinds of documentaries of people who died
-
and had a near-death experience and God said, no, no,
-
it's not time for you to die. You got some
-
more to live. I mean, this is literally common knowledge.
-
And yet, Western Christianity has been disassociated from that reality that, look,
-
You're not going to die until God says you're going
-
to die. And that's it. But that's such a hard
-
thing to do. So as we read this, take note
-
of that. The only thing you need to live is
-
his breath of life. That's what animates you. And I've
-
always given this example because it's a perfect example. Okay?
-
The perfect example is a laptop. Okay? So there are
-
three things. About a laptop that makes it work. Number
-
one is the hardware. That's our body. In Greek, that's soma.
-
That's the working parts. Number two is the software. A
-
laptop won't work unless it's programmed with software. That is
-
the psyche. That's the mind. That's the Greek word for psyche.
-
The third part is what makes it, you know, what
-
makes it work. Without electricity... all the software and hardware
-
does not function. The breath of life is the electricity.
-
We have to realize that's what makes us alive. Even
-
if you have a laptop and it crashes, the software
-
and the hardware and electricity is still there. It's just
-
that its psyche is not working properly.
-
Okay?
-
So, with that in mind, why don't you start us
-
out with.
-
Psalm 23. Good stuff.
-
A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd. I
-
shall not want. He makes me to lie down in
-
green pastures. He leads me to the side, the still waters.
-
He restores my soul. He leads me in the paths
-
of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk
-
through the valley of the shadow of death, I will
-
fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod
-
and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table
-
before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint
-
my head with oil. My cup runs over. Surely, goodness
-
and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
-
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Wow.
-
I mean, really to do commentary on this is to
-
do it in justice, isn't it? It really is. It
-
makes me hesitant to speak about it because, I mean,
-
these six short verses are like, The six days of
-
creation to me. I mean, really, he's saying exactly what
-
he wants you to hear. And it's exactly what you
-
need to listen to. But, you know, let's take a
-
look at that first verse. I already predicated it with
-
what I said before. Okay. When the Lord is your shepherd.
-
You shall not be in want of everything. All of
-
your needs will be fulfilled. And of course, we get
-
this through the entire, you know, 40 years of wilderness wanderings.
-
They literally didn't have anything to worry about. Literally, he
-
gave them, you know, manna from heaven every day. And yet, repeatedly,
-
over and over and over, it wasn't good enough, was it?
-
It literally, no matter what happened, it just wasn't good enough.
-
And it just blows my mind how people just don't
-
learn from that lesson. But literally, I'm going to have
-
to show you this. I'm going to be very forthright
-
with everybody. You might be a little taken aback by
-
what I'm going to say, but this is a true statement.
-
The first... 14 verses in Matthew chapter 24. Jesus Christ says.
Matthew 24 chapter mention
-
Not only is that the birth pangs. He says the
-
Greek word Odin. That only has one translation in English.
-
It's contraction. That's what it is. It's a contraction. It's
-
birth pangs. Then a few verses later. He says this
-
is the lesser tribulation. He calls it just tribulation. Then
-
he says the abomination of desolation happens. And after the
-
abomination of desolation. That's when the great tribulation is. You
-
can literally look at these things in the Greek and
-
it's very elementary. So, you need to realize that those
-
things are categorically the sealed judgments in Revelation. They're categorically
-
the sealed judgments. After those sealed judgments, God is very
-
forthright in Revelation chapter 7, starting in verse 9. 9
Revelation 7 chapter mention
-
through 17 is literally describing... Operation Eagle's Wings is God
-
gathering you to the pillar of his presence. That's what
-
it's talking about. So when you go there, it's categorically
-
stated there. They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore.
-
The sun shall not strike them nor any heat. For
-
the lamb who is in the midst of the throne
-
shall shepherd them and shall lead them to living fountains
-
of waters forever. And God will wipe away every tear
-
from their eyes. That is when this is fulfilled, people.
-
It's not in heaven. You don't get hungry in heaven.
-
Okay?
-
You don't feel heat in heaven. Heaven is the other dimension.
-
It is the spiritual dimension. We live in the physical dimension.
-
So categorically, this list of him describing this, this is
-
why in the Greek... There in verse 15 of Revelation
Revelation 7 chapter mention
-
chapter 7, he says that God will tabernacle over you.
-
That's what he's saying. You're under the pillar of the presence.
-
So that's when these things will happen. That's why it
-
states very shortly here, you shall not want. You shall
-
not be in want of any of your material needs
-
because you will be under his tabernacle. It's literally what
-
the Greek says. So from there you realize he's moving
-
you around. Everybody needs to realize this, that the word
-
is very clear. There were 42 stations in the wilderness.
-
We can prove this beyond contestation. They went 42 different places.
-
That's what the word says. So when he states that
-
the rest of the planet Is going to be trashed.
-
Because that's what the sixth seal event is. It is
-
a great day of the Lord. He says very categorically.
-
It's no longer inhabitable. He calls it an outer darkness.
-
Yada yada yada. Where he's at. Is the only livable place.
-
That's why he says. And we'll be moving around. He
-
makes me to lie down in green pastures. So he
-
has to take you there. He leads you beside skill waters.
-
He has to take you there. He comes right out
-
and says, he restores my soul. So we know this
-
phraseology is in reference to a peaceful sleep. I don't
-
need to get off on a side note and get
-
into a great big long diatribe of Hebrew and Greek.
-
But this is when he reconstitutes your soul. It's when
-
you have a peaceful sleep. Then he says, he leads
-
me in paths of righteousness for his namesake. He is
-
protecting you from the Great Tribulation for a reason. Just
-
like he protected the children of Israel from the Egyptian army.
-
This is what he's doing. And he's doing it. for
-
his namesake. That triggers other Bible prophecies all over the place.
-
It's categorically the perfect way to see that you should
-
know what the outer darkness is You better figure this out.
-
That the valley of the shadow of death is wherever
-
his presence isn't. It's anywhere outside of the tabernacle. Now,
-
in other places, and I know I'm being kind of
-
lengthy here, but this tabernacle that he sets up, he
-
gives it a name. He calls it the tabernacle of David.
-
Anywhere outside of that is the outer darkness, the great tribulation,
-
wherein there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. So what
-
he's describing here is exactly the opposite of what everybody's
-
happened to endure out in the outer darkness, which is uninhabitable,
-
how we know that. Revelation chapter 9, verse 6. God
-
is so mad that he orders death to flee from them.
-
So out there in the outer darkness, just like, well,
-
Isaiah chapter 13, verse 13. He literally states, he takes
-
the earth and field punts it out of the habitable
-
zone around our planet. And once that happens, don't be misled.
-
If you're not at the pillar of the presence, you're
-
going to die, but you're not going to be able
-
to rest in peace. Let's just say that. Your body
-
will not be able to die. That's what he says literally.
-
So this is describing the exact opposite of the environment
-
out there in the Great Tribulation. I was a bit long-winded.
-
I love it. You know I love it, don't you?
-
I love nothing more than talking about it. This is encouraging.
-
Here where he gives you in verse 2, He leads
-
you beside still waters. You should immediately know, we've talked
-
about this many times, about the flood of many waters.
-
That's coming. That's the exact opposite of that. The roaring waves,
-
this is the exact opposite of that. So once you
-
see that it's the opposite of that, it's a very
-
very encouraging. And when you know this lines up, well,
-
I mean, I haven't even got a chance to read
-
it today because I've been doing everything else, but this
-
lines up perfectly with David when he was in the
-
wilderness strongholds. This lines up perfectly. That's exactly what God did.
-
It's exactly what he did. Not a little to the
-
left or the right. It's exactly what happened, and that's
-
what he's going to do with us.
-
So, Your thoughts, baby. Okay, so when I was reading
-
verse 1, when I read it, I read it as,
-
the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. As
-
opposed to somebody else being my shepherd. So I think
-
that was the Israelites' problems. They didn't understand that God
-
himself was their leader.
-
Right.
-
And so that was why that they didn't believe that
-
they would get what they needed.
-
But that doesn't make any sense, Rachel. For 40 years,
-
they looked over and could see the pillar of the presence.
-
They didn't get what was happening.
-
How could you not get what was happening? I don't know.
-
I don't know. Maybe they were traumatized by it all.
-
But anyways, I was just thinking, you know, he makes
-
me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me
-
to This is the most idyllic scene that we can
-
think of. And I think that's why a lot of
-
people love this passage. It's just the most idyllic scene
-
we can envision, you know. And then, yea, though I
-
walk through the valley of the shadow of death, though,
-
you know, not going to fear evil for our shepherd
-
is with us. And he's got his rod.
-
And his staff.
-
We know that we will be safe. And it comforts us.
-
That he has his rod. And his staff. But I think.
-
When we get into the harder part. Is when we
-
get to verse 5. When it says. You prepare a table.
-
Before me in the.
-
Presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil.
-
And my cup runneth over. I really feel like. This
-
is going to be hard to do because we're going
-
to see all of this happening in the valley of
-
the shadow of death. We're going to be seeing our enemies,
-
you know, trying to rise up against us. And he's
-
going to be like, everybody sit down and eat. And
-
we're going to be like, what? I don't feel like eating.
-
I don't feel like sitting down.
-
What are you talking about?
-
You're going to anoint my head with oil. Like I
-
want to hide. And, and my cup runs over. Why
-
does my cup run over? Because I don't want to
-
drink it or what? I mean, what? I mean, I,
-
I'm just imagining, you know, well, I'm just seeing these
-
enemies coming up in our face and having to sit there.
-
Well, Let me say this, Rachel. In other prophetic places,
-
he says when he takes you to this place, he
-
gives you hind's feet and you're able to walk in
-
high places. Okay, so I don't want to overwhelm your mind,
-
but you already know this. There were serious issues with
-
time at the pillar of the presence. Their clothes didn't
-
wear out. That's not possible.
-
I remember that.
-
Their sandals were Did not wear out. After walking for
-
40 years. That's not physically possible.
-
So.
-
Because of their rebellion. Instead of these effects. Being on them.
-
Because they sinned. The effects were on their belongings. He
-
inverted the promise.
-
Okay.
-
Because they were rebellious.
-
But.
-
So that's what he's trying to say. When he anoints
-
your head.
-
Um. Um.
-
Your body, man, I don't want to confuse people. Your
-
body's going to be like it was before the flood.
-
You know how those people lived for a thousand years?
-
That's what he's trying to say now. He states this
-
also in Isaiah chapter 61. He uses other language. So
Isaiah 61 chapter mention
-
just listen, okay? This is what he means. Well, let
-
me just read it. I will greatly rejoice in the Lord.
-
My soul shall be joyful in my God, for he
-
has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has
-
covered me with the robe of righteousness. As a bridegroom
-
decks himself with ornaments and as a bride adores herself
-
with jewels. For as the earth brings forth its bud
-
as the garden causes the things that are sown in
-
it to spring forth. So the Lord God will cause
-
righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. Literally,
-
he just said he was going to take you and
-
make you into a jewel and put you on his garment. Okay,
-
so supernaturally, Your body's not going to be like it
-
is now. It's going to go back to the way
-
it was before the flood. What does that mean? Well, okay,
-
you understand this, that the clothes did not wear out, right?
-
Okay.
-
Do you know how you wear out? Well, of course
-
you do. You know that you get old, right? And
-
I've explained this to you many times, explained it to
-
the children. The reason why you grow old is every
-
time when your cell reproduces, there's mistakes in it.
-
Right?
-
That's what makes your skin lose its elasticity. It's because
-
over years and years and years of your body reproducing
-
the cells, it has mistakes in it. Those mistakes make
-
you old. When we go to this tabernacle... He is
-
going to restore us and we will no longer, when
-
our cells replace, they will be perfect duplicates. That's exactly
-
what he was doing with the clothes.
-
Right?
-
But because of their sin, he didn't put it on them.
-
He put it on their belongings because it is obvious
-
that's what they loved. They loved their meat. You know,
-
they loved their quail, right? That's what they loved. They
-
loved their belongings. They didn't love, you know. So, you know,
-
I've mentioned this so many times. I'm just going to have.
-
Sherry had a comment.
-
How do you know that?
-
It comes up right there.
-
Oh, okay. Let me go over there and see. Let
-
me take.
-
Go over there.
-
Push some buttons. Okay. Oh, Carol. Why didn't you tell
-
me Carol had comments? I thought. Hello?
-
I did. She said about the toilet paper and I
-
didn't see the other one.
-
Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. Sherry says, I was blown away
-
by the understanding that they thought a golden calf made
-
by hands, could lead them through the wilderness, like actually
-
in the place of God. Yes, that's what I was
-
trying to say, Sherry. They believed that they loved their belongings.
-
They wanted something from this material world. And remember, God
-
says in the very first verse of the Bible, he
-
made two dimensions. He made the spiritual dimension and he
-
made the physical dimension. He says he made heaven and earth.
-
He says that so many times it's redundant to even
-
talk about. But they didn't want God from heaven to
-
lead them. They wanted something on earth, something material to
-
lead them. So literally, this is why their belongings got
-
the blessing instead of them. That's why. Okay, what was
-
I getting ready to do?
-
I don't know. I just want to make sure that I....
-
You just want to make sure that I did okay.
-
We are going to have to read this because everything
-
that we've read so far, it harkens back to this.
-
So we're going to jump over to Revelation chapter 7,
Revelation 7 chapter mention
-
and I'm just going to read it for you. But
-
I need to bring out some things first. In verse 15,
-
this is not translated correctly. This is the new King James.
-
It's incorrect. So is the King James. So is the
-
King James Version. They are incorrect. Here, in Greek, it
-
says skinu. That's tent. It means tabernacle. So here... Go.
-
Ahead and keep talking.
-
Here in the Greek, it literally says that he will
-
skinu epi. Over us. He will tabernacle over us. This
-
is what he's talking about. So let me read it
-
here from the New King James Version. This is when
-
this happens. So Revelation chapter 7. And if you want
Revelation 7 chapter mention
-
to know. What the first day. I better not go.
-
That would be information overload. He already said it there.
-
That he's going to. You know your rod and your staff.
-
There's two mechanisms. By which he will rule with. But
-
I don't need to talk about that right now. Let's
-
just talk about this relocation. Verse 9. After these things
-
I looked, and behold, a great multitude, which no one
-
could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, tongues, standing before
-
the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes
-
with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with
-
a loud voice, saying, Salvation belongs to our God who
-
sits on the throne and to the Lamb. And all
-
the angels around the throne and the elders and the
-
four living creatures fell on their faces before the throne
-
and worshiped God saying, Amen. Blessing and glory and wisdom
-
and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to
-
our God forever and ever. Amen. Then one of the
-
elders saying to me, Who are these in white and
-
white robes and where did they come from? And I
-
said to him, Sir, you know. So he said to me,
-
Now listen very carefully, ladies and gentlemen. He's not lying.
-
He's not lying. These are the ones who came out
-
of the great tribulation. They washed their robes and made
-
them white in the blood of the Lamb. What does
-
that mean? They were born again.
-
Okay?
-
Verse 15. Therefore they are before the throne of God
-
and serve Him day and night in His temple. He
-
who sits on the throne will dwell among them. That
-
is not what the Greek says. It says, he who
-
sitteth upon the throne will stretch his tabernacle over them.
-
That's what it says in Greek. Verse 16. This is
-
when Psalm 23 comes true. They shall neither hunger anymore
-
nor thirst anymore. The sun shall not strike them nor
-
any heat. For the lamb who is in the midst
-
of the throne. Okay, so take note. This is before
-
the return of Christ. It's telling you, Jesus Christ didn't
-
do this. He's still in the dimension of heaven. He
-
has not come back for you yet. That's what he's saying, okay?
-
For the lamb who is in the midst of the
-
throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains
-
of waters, and God will wipe every tear from their eyes.
-
This is plainly not in heaven. He has relocated you
-
to this pillar of the presence, and that's where you
-
go For the three and a half year duration of
-
the tribulation. That's what it says. That's what it means.
-
So.
-
When we go there. Isaiah 61 said. That he's going
-
to put us. Like a jewel on his garment. On
-
this tabernacle. That's God's garment. Is the tabernacle. So he's
-
trying to tell you. In a bunch of different ways.
-
And he's always saying the same thing. So this is
-
what he's talking about. Psalm 23 literally comes true after
-
Operation Eagle's Wings. That's when it happens, when we're gathered
-
together to this place. So I'm just going to say
-
this lightly. The first eight verses of Revelation chapter 7
Revelation 7 chapter mention
-
Is also coming from. Psalm 23. Okay. I'm going to
-
say it. We're not going to concentrate on it. Because
-
it will just. There's just too much information here. But
-
you need to understand this. The word loudly declares. That
-
Jesus Christ will rule. With a rod of iron. Here
-
you're told. This rod has two components. Okay? For you
-
are with me, your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
-
That's what the first eight verses of Revelation chapter 7
Revelation 7 chapter mention
-
is about. I'm not going to get into it. It's
-
just information overload. It's just too much information at once.
-
But this is what he's talking about. You're not raptured
-
to heaven. The Bible never says that. It says, read
-
verse 5 for me, honey. Read verse 5. Is this
-
happening in heaven or is it happening on earth? Read
-
verse 5.
-
You prepare a table before me in the presence of
-
my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup
-
runs over.
-
Okay. That's enough. You prepare a table for me in
-
the presence of my enemies. You are not going to
-
the dimension of heaven.
-
But you... Okay, now I'm getting confused because you were
-
saying that when we were brought to the pillar of
-
the presence, that we will be in heaven.
-
No.
-
That's the heavenly realm.
-
No, we're on earth.
-
Now I'm so confused.
-
We are going to be.
-
Because our clothes won't wear out.
-
No, our clothes will wear out. We won't wear out.
-
Yeah, we won't wear out because we'll be in this
-
other dimension, which is heaven.
-
No, no, no, no, no. No, you're on earth. You're
-
going to be at the pillar of the presence just
-
like they were for 40 years, but you're not going
-
to rebel. The reason why you're taking there is because
-
you're a Christian, honey. Okay? So, let me say this again.
-
Because they rebelled in the wilderness during the 40 years,
-
God inverted the blessing that he's talking about here. Instead
-
of their physical bodies not wearing out, their belongings didn't
-
wear out. God was slapping them in the face. It
-
was a slap in the face. Because they desired the
-
work of their hands. They wanted material things. Okay?
-
Okay.
-
So you know that the Israelites were not taken to heaven.
-
Well, I guess you confused me when you were talking
-
earlier because you were like, well, there's two different dimensions
-
and like they were in a different dimension whenever they
-
were there. That's why. Okay. So that's why I was confused.
-
Right. Information overload.
-
Okay.
-
Very easy to do. Like I said, that's why I
-
don't want to talk anymore about the rod and the staff.
-
It's just too much information.
-
Yeah, I think, yeah, it's information overload. And I kind
-
of don't feel very well. Maybe we should wrap it up.
-
Yes, ma'am. Okay, we can certainly wrap it up. Everybody,
-
continue to pray for Rachel. How long have you been
-
sick now?
-
I think it's been like almost three weeks. I've Just
-
been running a fever off and on.
-
And then today you got up and you're nauseous again.
-
Yeah, it's just, I don't know.
-
All right, so any questions or comments from anybody? Anything
-
anybody wants to talk about? We, of course, can talk
-
about anything. Oh, Carol put in another comment. I'm reminded
-
of Philip when he was in the water baptizing The
-
eunuch arose and he was transported to an entirely new location.
-
That's what she meant. He was transported to an entirely
-
new location. Yes. Yes.
-
Yes.
-
That's exactly how it's going to happen. Yes, Heinz feet.
-
This is a prophetic isochronal event, Carol. Yes, when we
-
get our Heinz feet.
-
Yes.
-
Okay.
-
So.
-
So, Psalm 24 further extrapolates on this. I don't need
-
to get there yet. Okay, everybody. We're going to do,
-
we're still going to do Psalm, or 1 Samuel 23, right?
-
Yeah.
-
Alright. Pray for Rachel that we can do it. We're
-
going to do that here at 2.30. So, I hope
-
everybody enjoyed. I hope I didn't create information overload for anybody,
-
but let me just say this again. During the tribulation,
-
we're going to be here on earth. Jesus Christ will
-
still be in the throne. Okay, now Joni has a comment.
-
It is interesting how the fact that their clothes didn't
-
wear out has been taught differently, like it was God's provision. Yes,
-
I know what those who have not been born again states, Joanie.
-
That's what these teachers that haven't been born again, that's
-
what they say.
-
Maybe they just didn't know.
-
Well, there's a reason why they don't know.
-
I don't think that's why. Okay, alright.
-
I will err on the side of mercy. So anyway, yes,
-
very good, Joanie. So, Hopefully we'll be able to get
-
back together here at 2.30. Till next time, everybody. God bless. Godspeed.
