  1. Welcome everybody welcome to the psalms bible study with matthew

  2. and baby cakes i'm gonna do you know it's it's

  3. highly questionable there's probably two contenders here either this is

  4. the most famous passage in the word or it's john

  5. 3 16 probably close neck and neck there.

  6. It's it's definitely a lot of people's favorite you know

  7. like You don't like how there's certain colors that tend

  8. to be a lot of people's favorite, like blue, purple. Right.

  9. Right. Yeah. Same, same thing, same type of thing. But

  10. what is amazing is, is when you look at the

  11. cross references for this year, there's none, right?

  12. I didn't notice that. I just, it's, it's a comforting,

  13. it is comforting to read it just for your current situation, but.

  14. I'm excited to see what your take on this is

  15. concerning prophecy. Because I know that you're going to have

  16. something to say on that as we normally do.

  17. Absolutely. And this is, well, wow.

  18. I don't think people really realize how important this is

  19. in the backdrop of Bible prophecy. And I don't realize

  20. that these things will be fulfilled for us, well, for

  21. 45 days. That comment probably shocks people, but literally speaking,

  22. the word is pretty forthright in telling you that after

  23. the abomination of desolation, we've got 45 long, hard days.

  24. Yep.

  25. And in that, the promises made to David will extend

  26. to us as he was fleeing through the wilderness, of course,

  27. in 1 Samuel chapter 23. That's where this is talking about.

    1 Samuel 23 chapter mention

  28. It says that he was in the hills of the woods.

  29. When it makes reference here to being his shepherd, literally

  30. in that chapter, as Saul is pursuing him, repeatedly, David

  31. inquires of the Lord and the Lord gives him literally

  32. line by line answers. This is the only way we're

  33. going to survive once the man of sin has made

  34. his transition. He's accepted the deal. He's performed the Passover

  35. abominable desolation and has become the son of perdition. There

  36. will be no escaping him. There just won't be. And

  37. he will be hunting us down. And this is why,

  38. this is why, of course, Revelation chapter 12 states that, well,

    Revelation 12 chapter mention

  39. of course, Jesus stated it. Jesus himself stated that once

  40. the abomination of desolation happens, you must flee to the wilderness.

  41. So you're telling us that being, there's no way that

  42. we can be prepared for this. There's no way that

  43. we can stock up or have certain things available or,

  44. you know, Be at the ready for, you know, other

  45. than spiritually. Is that what you're saying? That there's nothing

  46. we can really do?

  47. Well, I can tell you what Jesus said. Is that

  48. going to be a good enough answer for you?

  49. Of course.

  50. Okay. Then this is what Jesus Christ says. Therefore, when

  51. you see the abomination of desolation spoken by Daniel the

  52. prophet standing in the holy place, whoever reads, let them understand.

  53. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

  54. This is exactly what David did in 1 Samuel chapter 23. Okay.

    1 Samuel 23 chapter mention

  55. Let those who are on the housetop not go down

  56. to take anything out of the house.

  57. Well, they got to go down in order to get

  58. out of the house.

  59. But not take anything with them.

  60. Okay.

  61. Let him who is in the field not go back

  62. to get his clothes. Okay. So what is this telling you, Rachel?

  63. You cannot prepare. There's no such thing as a bug-out bag.

  64. If you have a bug-out bag, that's where your faith is. Therefore,

  65. you will be absolutely terrified when this event happens. So,

  66. if you have your faith in that bug-out bag, when

  67. it happens, you're going to be so completely wracked with fear,

  68. you're going to Of course, barricade the doors and windows.

  69. That's what you're going to be.

  70. Well, you're going to be tempted to not do what

  71. this says. You're going to be tempted to go get

  72. that bug out bag.

  73. Yes, and you're going to be tempted to hunker down.

  74. That's what most of us would do, right? We would

  75. be so afraid that we'd lock the doors, lock the windows,

  76. and start trying to put boards or move furniture in

  77. front of the doors. That's our natural thing to do.

  78. And Jesus Christ is literally telling you, You cannot do that.

  79. You must flee. You must flee. So, no, Rachel, you

  80. can't prepare for it.

  81. And yet there are things that people have to prepare

  82. for in certain parts of the country, like hurricanes and

  83. things like that that happen. They have to be prepared

  84. with a bag to take off. In that event, there's

  85. nothing wrong with having a bug out bag for those

  86. kind of things. We're not talking about that.

  87. Yes.

  88. I just want to clarify that. Yes.

  89. So, yeah, we're not talking about a bug out bag

  90. for an earthquake or a tornado. You know, no, no, no.

  91. This is going to be a supernatural event in which

  92. everybody will know that Passover desolation has occurred. Everybody will know. So, no,

  93. we're not talking about that.

  94. So, we won't have to be watching the news.

  95. We'll just know. We will know. We will know. How

  96. will we know? Well, honey, you know, at this time,

  97. you need to realize that by this time, on this day,

  98. the four spirits of heaven would have been pouring out

  99. the latter rain for 1,290 days. Believe me, honey, you'll know.

  100. The Holy Spirit will tell you. Okay, so that being

  101. the case, he gives you examples here of the people

  102. who's really going to be terrified and under what certain

  103. circumstances you'll really be tempted. But anyway, we're not going

  104. to get into that. We're going to, you know, we

  105. haven't even read the first verse yet.

  106. This is a basic course. This is Psalm 101, not

  107. Psalm 102.

  108. Right. Well, actually, I could probably do Psalm 102. You know, 202.

  109. I know, but you can't, though. Yes, ma'am. This is

  110. the basics.

  111. Okay. As Rachel reels me back in, yes, I don't

  112. need to give information overload. But anyway, getting back to

  113. the point, this psalm will literally be fulfilled when the

  114. abomination of desolation occurs. That's when this is really going

  115. to happen and we're really going to spend 45 days

  116. in flight as there's war in the heavens, and as

  117. soon as that war is decided, then Operation Eagle's Wings

  118. will take place, and we'll be taken to this.

  119. There I go again. You know, let's read it. It

  120. is so comforting, but Once you realize when the ultimate

  121. fulfillment of this is, it is extremely comforting. And you

  122. realize he's categorically telling you, you have nothing to worry about.

  123. You don't have to worry about what you're going to

  124. eat or where you're going to sleep. He takes care

  125. of all of your necessities, right? He's going to take

  126. care of everything. And yeah, that's going to be scary

  127. if you don't, you know, anybody who's at least got

  128. a tent will be extremely tempted to, you know, pull

  129. down the attic stairs and run up in the attic

  130. and get the tent, right? But they can't. They can't

  131. do that.

  132. So. Or bring your piece of water or your toilet paper.

  133. Your toilet paper. Oh, no.

  134. Yeah.

  135. I can see you going back in the house to

  136. get toilet paper. Oh my goodness. Everybody else talks about

  137. stockpiling gold bullion.

  138. No, I'm just referring to in 2020 when that was

  139. the first thing people went for.

  140. Oh my goodness, they really did. yeah um my goodness

  141. only you would see that um but yeah it's you

  142. have to realize that and you and i talked about this.

  143. Said she's got her toilet paper ready.

  144. Too oh no so i guess that's all you can say, guys,

  145. is that make sure you take a woman with you.

  146. All right.

  147. So anyway, he tells you here, and we talked about

  148. this privately the other day. Everybody has to realize why

  149. you're alive. Society wants to tell you that you're alive

  150. because all of your needs have been met. That's not true. Okay?

  151. The only reason why you're alive is because God has

  152. put his breath of life in you. You don't need

  153. water to live.

  154. You don't.

  155. You don't need food to live. You don't need shelter

  156. to live. You die when God says so. I mean,

  157. this is common knowledge even in the secular world. You

  158. can watch all kinds of documentaries of people who died

  159. and had a near-death experience and God said, no, no,

  160. it's not time for you to die. You got some

  161. more to live. I mean, this is literally common knowledge.

  162. And yet, Western Christianity has been disassociated from that reality that, look,

  163. You're not going to die until God says you're going

  164. to die. And that's it. But that's such a hard

  165. thing to do. So as we read this, take note

  166. of that. The only thing you need to live is

  167. his breath of life. That's what animates you. And I've

  168. always given this example because it's a perfect example. Okay?

  169. The perfect example is a laptop. Okay? So there are

  170. three things. About a laptop that makes it work. Number

  171. one is the hardware. That's our body. In Greek, that's soma.

  172. That's the working parts. Number two is the software. A

  173. laptop won't work unless it's programmed with software. That is

  174. the psyche. That's the mind. That's the Greek word for psyche.

  175. The third part is what makes it, you know, what

  176. makes it work. Without electricity... all the software and hardware

  177. does not function. The breath of life is the electricity.

  178. We have to realize that's what makes us alive. Even

  179. if you have a laptop and it crashes, the software

  180. and the hardware and electricity is still there. It's just

  181. that its psyche is not working properly.

  182. Okay?

  183. So, with that in mind, why don't you start us

  184. out with.

  185. Psalm 23. Good stuff.

  186. A Psalm of David. The Lord is my shepherd. I

  187. shall not want. He makes me to lie down in

  188. green pastures. He leads me to the side, the still waters.

  189. He restores my soul. He leads me in the paths

  190. of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk

  191. through the valley of the shadow of death, I will

  192. fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod

  193. and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table

  194. before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint

  195. my head with oil. My cup runs over. Surely, goodness

  196. and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,

  197. and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Wow.

  198. I mean, really to do commentary on this is to

  199. do it in justice, isn't it? It really is. It

  200. makes me hesitant to speak about it because, I mean,

  201. these six short verses are like, The six days of

  202. creation to me. I mean, really, he's saying exactly what

  203. he wants you to hear. And it's exactly what you

  204. need to listen to. But, you know, let's take a

  205. look at that first verse. I already predicated it with

  206. what I said before. Okay. When the Lord is your shepherd.

  207. You shall not be in want of everything. All of

  208. your needs will be fulfilled. And of course, we get

  209. this through the entire, you know, 40 years of wilderness wanderings.

  210. They literally didn't have anything to worry about. Literally, he

  211. gave them, you know, manna from heaven every day. And yet, repeatedly,

  212. over and over and over, it wasn't good enough, was it?

  213. It literally, no matter what happened, it just wasn't good enough.

  214. And it just blows my mind how people just don't

  215. learn from that lesson. But literally, I'm going to have

  216. to show you this. I'm going to be very forthright

  217. with everybody. You might be a little taken aback by

  218. what I'm going to say, but this is a true statement.

  219. The first... 14 verses in Matthew chapter 24. Jesus Christ says.

    Matthew 24 chapter mention

  220. Not only is that the birth pangs. He says the

  221. Greek word Odin. That only has one translation in English.

  222. It's contraction. That's what it is. It's a contraction. It's

  223. birth pangs. Then a few verses later. He says this

  224. is the lesser tribulation. He calls it just tribulation. Then

  225. he says the abomination of desolation happens. And after the

  226. abomination of desolation. That's when the great tribulation is. You

  227. can literally look at these things in the Greek and

  228. it's very elementary. So, you need to realize that those

  229. things are categorically the sealed judgments in Revelation. They're categorically

  230. the sealed judgments. After those sealed judgments, God is very

  231. forthright in Revelation chapter 7, starting in verse 9. 9

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  232. through 17 is literally describing... Operation Eagle's Wings is God

  233. gathering you to the pillar of his presence. That's what

  234. it's talking about. So when you go there, it's categorically

  235. stated there. They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore.

  236. The sun shall not strike them nor any heat. For

  237. the lamb who is in the midst of the throne

  238. shall shepherd them and shall lead them to living fountains

  239. of waters forever. And God will wipe away every tear

  240. from their eyes. That is when this is fulfilled, people.

  241. It's not in heaven. You don't get hungry in heaven.

  242. Okay?

  243. You don't feel heat in heaven. Heaven is the other dimension.

  244. It is the spiritual dimension. We live in the physical dimension.

  245. So categorically, this list of him describing this, this is

  246. why in the Greek... There in verse 15 of Revelation

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  247. chapter 7, he says that God will tabernacle over you.

  248. That's what he's saying. You're under the pillar of the presence.

  249. So that's when these things will happen. That's why it

  250. states very shortly here, you shall not want. You shall

  251. not be in want of any of your material needs

  252. because you will be under his tabernacle. It's literally what

  253. the Greek says. So from there you realize he's moving

  254. you around. Everybody needs to realize this, that the word

  255. is very clear. There were 42 stations in the wilderness.

  256. We can prove this beyond contestation. They went 42 different places.

  257. That's what the word says. So when he states that

  258. the rest of the planet Is going to be trashed.

  259. Because that's what the sixth seal event is. It is

  260. a great day of the Lord. He says very categorically.

  261. It's no longer inhabitable. He calls it an outer darkness.

  262. Yada yada yada. Where he's at. Is the only livable place.

  263. That's why he says. And we'll be moving around. He

  264. makes me to lie down in green pastures. So he

  265. has to take you there. He leads you beside skill waters.

  266. He has to take you there. He comes right out

  267. and says, he restores my soul. So we know this

  268. phraseology is in reference to a peaceful sleep. I don't

  269. need to get off on a side note and get

  270. into a great big long diatribe of Hebrew and Greek.

  271. But this is when he reconstitutes your soul. It's when

  272. you have a peaceful sleep. Then he says, he leads

  273. me in paths of righteousness for his namesake. He is

  274. protecting you from the Great Tribulation for a reason. Just

  275. like he protected the children of Israel from the Egyptian army.

  276. This is what he's doing. And he's doing it. for

  277. his namesake. That triggers other Bible prophecies all over the place.

  278. It's categorically the perfect way to see that you should

  279. know what the outer darkness is You better figure this out.

  280. That the valley of the shadow of death is wherever

  281. his presence isn't. It's anywhere outside of the tabernacle. Now,

  282. in other places, and I know I'm being kind of

  283. lengthy here, but this tabernacle that he sets up, he

  284. gives it a name. He calls it the tabernacle of David.

  285. Anywhere outside of that is the outer darkness, the great tribulation,

  286. wherein there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. So what

  287. he's describing here is exactly the opposite of what everybody's

  288. happened to endure out in the outer darkness, which is uninhabitable,

  289. how we know that. Revelation chapter 9, verse 6. God

    Revelation 9:6

  290. is so mad that he orders death to flee from them.

  291. So out there in the outer darkness, just like, well,

  292. Isaiah chapter 13, verse 13. He literally states, he takes

    Isaiah 13:13

  293. the earth and field punts it out of the habitable

  294. zone around our planet. And once that happens, don't be misled.

  295. If you're not at the pillar of the presence, you're

  296. going to die, but you're not going to be able

  297. to rest in peace. Let's just say that. Your body

  298. will not be able to die. That's what he says literally.

  299. So this is describing the exact opposite of the environment

  300. out there in the Great Tribulation. I was a bit long-winded.

  301. I love it. You know I love it, don't you?

  302. I love nothing more than talking about it. This is encouraging.

  303. Here where he gives you in verse 2, He leads

  304. you beside still waters. You should immediately know, we've talked

  305. about this many times, about the flood of many waters.

  306. That's coming. That's the exact opposite of that. The roaring waves,

  307. this is the exact opposite of that. So once you

  308. see that it's the opposite of that, it's a very

  309. very encouraging. And when you know this lines up, well,

  310. I mean, I haven't even got a chance to read

  311. it today because I've been doing everything else, but this

  312. lines up perfectly with David when he was in the

  313. wilderness strongholds. This lines up perfectly. That's exactly what God did.

  314. It's exactly what he did. Not a little to the

  315. left or the right. It's exactly what happened, and that's

  316. what he's going to do with us.

  317. So, Your thoughts, baby. Okay, so when I was reading

  318. verse 1, when I read it, I read it as,

  319. the Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. As

  320. opposed to somebody else being my shepherd. So I think

  321. that was the Israelites' problems. They didn't understand that God

  322. himself was their leader.

  323. Right.

  324. And so that was why that they didn't believe that

  325. they would get what they needed.

  326. But that doesn't make any sense, Rachel. For 40 years,

  327. they looked over and could see the pillar of the presence.

  328. They didn't get what was happening.

  329. How could you not get what was happening? I don't know.

  330. I don't know. Maybe they were traumatized by it all.

  331. But anyways, I was just thinking, you know, he makes

  332. me to lie down in green pastures. He leads me

  333. to This is the most idyllic scene that we can

  334. think of. And I think that's why a lot of

  335. people love this passage. It's just the most idyllic scene

  336. we can envision, you know. And then, yea, though I

  337. walk through the valley of the shadow of death, though,

  338. you know, not going to fear evil for our shepherd

  339. is with us. And he's got his rod.

  340. And his staff.

  341. We know that we will be safe. And it comforts us.

  342. That he has his rod. And his staff. But I think.

  343. When we get into the harder part. Is when we

  344. get to verse 5. When it says. You prepare a table.

  345. Before me in the.

  346. Presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil.

  347. And my cup runneth over. I really feel like. This

  348. is going to be hard to do because we're going

  349. to see all of this happening in the valley of

  350. the shadow of death. We're going to be seeing our enemies,

  351. you know, trying to rise up against us. And he's

  352. going to be like, everybody sit down and eat. And

  353. we're going to be like, what? I don't feel like eating.

  354. I don't feel like sitting down.

  355. What are you talking about?

  356. You're going to anoint my head with oil. Like I

  357. want to hide. And, and my cup runs over. Why

  358. does my cup run over? Because I don't want to

  359. drink it or what? I mean, what? I mean, I,

  360. I'm just imagining, you know, well, I'm just seeing these

  361. enemies coming up in our face and having to sit there.

  362. Well, Let me say this, Rachel. In other prophetic places,

  363. he says when he takes you to this place, he

  364. gives you hind's feet and you're able to walk in

  365. high places. Okay, so I don't want to overwhelm your mind,

  366. but you already know this. There were serious issues with

  367. time at the pillar of the presence. Their clothes didn't

  368. wear out. That's not possible.

  369. I remember that.

  370. Their sandals were Did not wear out. After walking for

  371. 40 years. That's not physically possible.

  372. So.

  373. Because of their rebellion. Instead of these effects. Being on them.

  374. Because they sinned. The effects were on their belongings. He

  375. inverted the promise.

  376. Okay.

  377. Because they were rebellious.

  378. But.

  379. So that's what he's trying to say. When he anoints

  380. your head.

  381. Um. Um.

  382. Your body, man, I don't want to confuse people. Your

  383. body's going to be like it was before the flood.

  384. You know how those people lived for a thousand years?

  385. That's what he's trying to say now. He states this

  386. also in Isaiah chapter 61. He uses other language. So

    Isaiah 61 chapter mention

  387. just listen, okay? This is what he means. Well, let

  388. me just read it. I will greatly rejoice in the Lord.

  389. My soul shall be joyful in my God, for he

  390. has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has

  391. covered me with the robe of righteousness. As a bridegroom

  392. decks himself with ornaments and as a bride adores herself

  393. with jewels. For as the earth brings forth its bud

  394. as the garden causes the things that are sown in

  395. it to spring forth. So the Lord God will cause

  396. righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations. Literally,

  397. he just said he was going to take you and

  398. make you into a jewel and put you on his garment. Okay,

  399. so supernaturally, Your body's not going to be like it

  400. is now. It's going to go back to the way

  401. it was before the flood. What does that mean? Well, okay,

  402. you understand this, that the clothes did not wear out, right?

  403. Okay.

  404. Do you know how you wear out? Well, of course

  405. you do. You know that you get old, right? And

  406. I've explained this to you many times, explained it to

  407. the children. The reason why you grow old is every

  408. time when your cell reproduces, there's mistakes in it.

  409. Right?

  410. That's what makes your skin lose its elasticity. It's because

  411. over years and years and years of your body reproducing

  412. the cells, it has mistakes in it. Those mistakes make

  413. you old. When we go to this tabernacle... He is

  414. going to restore us and we will no longer, when

  415. our cells replace, they will be perfect duplicates. That's exactly

  416. what he was doing with the clothes.

  417. Right?

  418. But because of their sin, he didn't put it on them.

  419. He put it on their belongings because it is obvious

  420. that's what they loved. They loved their meat. You know,

  421. they loved their quail, right? That's what they loved. They

  422. loved their belongings. They didn't love, you know. So, you know,

  423. I've mentioned this so many times. I'm just going to have.

  424. Sherry had a comment.

  425. How do you know that?

  426. It comes up right there.

  427. Oh, okay. Let me go over there and see. Let

  428. me take.

  429. Go over there.

  430. Push some buttons. Okay. Oh, Carol. Why didn't you tell

  431. me Carol had comments? I thought. Hello?

  432. I did. She said about the toilet paper and I

  433. didn't see the other one.

  434. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. Sherry says, I was blown away

  435. by the understanding that they thought a golden calf made

  436. by hands, could lead them through the wilderness, like actually

  437. in the place of God. Yes, that's what I was

  438. trying to say, Sherry. They believed that they loved their belongings.

  439. They wanted something from this material world. And remember, God

  440. says in the very first verse of the Bible, he

  441. made two dimensions. He made the spiritual dimension and he

  442. made the physical dimension. He says he made heaven and earth.

  443. He says that so many times it's redundant to even

  444. talk about. But they didn't want God from heaven to

  445. lead them. They wanted something on earth, something material to

  446. lead them. So literally, this is why their belongings got

  447. the blessing instead of them. That's why. Okay, what was

  448. I getting ready to do?

  449. I don't know. I just want to make sure that I....

  450. You just want to make sure that I did okay.

  451. We are going to have to read this because everything

  452. that we've read so far, it harkens back to this.

  453. So we're going to jump over to Revelation chapter 7,

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  454. and I'm just going to read it for you. But

  455. I need to bring out some things first. In verse 15,

  456. this is not translated correctly. This is the new King James.

  457. It's incorrect. So is the King James. So is the

  458. King James Version. They are incorrect. Here, in Greek, it

  459. says skinu. That's tent. It means tabernacle. So here... Go.

  460. Ahead and keep talking.

  461. Here in the Greek, it literally says that he will

  462. skinu epi. Over us. He will tabernacle over us. This

  463. is what he's talking about. So let me read it

  464. here from the New King James Version. This is when

  465. this happens. So Revelation chapter 7. And if you want

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  466. to know. What the first day. I better not go.

  467. That would be information overload. He already said it there.

  468. That he's going to. You know your rod and your staff.

  469. There's two mechanisms. By which he will rule with. But

  470. I don't need to talk about that right now. Let's

  471. just talk about this relocation. Verse 9. After these things

  472. I looked, and behold, a great multitude, which no one

  473. could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, tongues, standing before

  474. the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes

  475. with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with

  476. a loud voice, saying, Salvation belongs to our God who

  477. sits on the throne and to the Lamb. And all

  478. the angels around the throne and the elders and the

  479. four living creatures fell on their faces before the throne

  480. and worshiped God saying, Amen. Blessing and glory and wisdom

  481. and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to

  482. our God forever and ever. Amen. Then one of the

  483. elders saying to me, Who are these in white and

  484. white robes and where did they come from? And I

  485. said to him, Sir, you know. So he said to me,

  486. Now listen very carefully, ladies and gentlemen. He's not lying.

  487. He's not lying. These are the ones who came out

  488. of the great tribulation. They washed their robes and made

  489. them white in the blood of the Lamb. What does

  490. that mean? They were born again.

  491. Okay?

  492. Verse 15. Therefore they are before the throne of God

  493. and serve Him day and night in His temple. He

  494. who sits on the throne will dwell among them. That

  495. is not what the Greek says. It says, he who

  496. sitteth upon the throne will stretch his tabernacle over them.

  497. That's what it says in Greek. Verse 16. This is

  498. when Psalm 23 comes true. They shall neither hunger anymore

  499. nor thirst anymore. The sun shall not strike them nor

  500. any heat. For the lamb who is in the midst

  501. of the throne. Okay, so take note. This is before

  502. the return of Christ. It's telling you, Jesus Christ didn't

  503. do this. He's still in the dimension of heaven. He

  504. has not come back for you yet. That's what he's saying, okay?

  505. For the lamb who is in the midst of the

  506. throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains

  507. of waters, and God will wipe every tear from their eyes.

  508. This is plainly not in heaven. He has relocated you

  509. to this pillar of the presence, and that's where you

  510. go For the three and a half year duration of

  511. the tribulation. That's what it says. That's what it means.

  512. So.

  513. When we go there. Isaiah 61 said. That he's going

  514. to put us. Like a jewel on his garment. On

  515. this tabernacle. That's God's garment. Is the tabernacle. So he's

  516. trying to tell you. In a bunch of different ways.

  517. And he's always saying the same thing. So this is

  518. what he's talking about. Psalm 23 literally comes true after

  519. Operation Eagle's Wings. That's when it happens, when we're gathered

  520. together to this place. So I'm just going to say

  521. this lightly. The first eight verses of Revelation chapter 7

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  522. Is also coming from. Psalm 23. Okay. I'm going to

  523. say it. We're not going to concentrate on it. Because

  524. it will just. There's just too much information here. But

  525. you need to understand this. The word loudly declares. That

  526. Jesus Christ will rule. With a rod of iron. Here

  527. you're told. This rod has two components. Okay? For you

  528. are with me, your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

  529. That's what the first eight verses of Revelation chapter 7

    Revelation 7 chapter mention

  530. is about. I'm not going to get into it. It's

  531. just information overload. It's just too much information at once.

  532. But this is what he's talking about. You're not raptured

  533. to heaven. The Bible never says that. It says, read

  534. verse 5 for me, honey. Read verse 5. Is this

  535. happening in heaven or is it happening on earth? Read

  536. verse 5.

  537. You prepare a table before me in the presence of

  538. my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup

  539. runs over.

  540. Okay. That's enough. You prepare a table for me in

  541. the presence of my enemies. You are not going to

  542. the dimension of heaven.

  543. But you... Okay, now I'm getting confused because you were

  544. saying that when we were brought to the pillar of

  545. the presence, that we will be in heaven.

  546. No.

  547. That's the heavenly realm.

  548. No, we're on earth.

  549. Now I'm so confused.

  550. We are going to be.

  551. Because our clothes won't wear out.

  552. No, our clothes will wear out. We won't wear out.

  553. Yeah, we won't wear out because we'll be in this

  554. other dimension, which is heaven.

  555. No, no, no, no, no. No, you're on earth. You're

  556. going to be at the pillar of the presence just

  557. like they were for 40 years, but you're not going

  558. to rebel. The reason why you're taking there is because

  559. you're a Christian, honey. Okay? So, let me say this again.

  560. Because they rebelled in the wilderness during the 40 years,

  561. God inverted the blessing that he's talking about here. Instead

  562. of their physical bodies not wearing out, their belongings didn't

  563. wear out. God was slapping them in the face. It

  564. was a slap in the face. Because they desired the

  565. work of their hands. They wanted material things. Okay?

  566. Okay.

  567. So you know that the Israelites were not taken to heaven.

  568. Well, I guess you confused me when you were talking

  569. earlier because you were like, well, there's two different dimensions

  570. and like they were in a different dimension whenever they

  571. were there. That's why. Okay. So that's why I was confused.

  572. Right. Information overload.

  573. Okay.

  574. Very easy to do. Like I said, that's why I

  575. don't want to talk anymore about the rod and the staff.

  576. It's just too much information.

  577. Yeah, I think, yeah, it's information overload. And I kind

  578. of don't feel very well. Maybe we should wrap it up.

  579. Yes, ma'am. Okay, we can certainly wrap it up. Everybody,

  580. continue to pray for Rachel. How long have you been

  581. sick now?

  582. I think it's been like almost three weeks. I've Just

  583. been running a fever off and on.

  584. And then today you got up and you're nauseous again.

  585. Yeah, it's just, I don't know.

  586. All right, so any questions or comments from anybody? Anything

  587. anybody wants to talk about? We, of course, can talk

  588. about anything. Oh, Carol put in another comment. I'm reminded

  589. of Philip when he was in the water baptizing The

  590. eunuch arose and he was transported to an entirely new location.

  591. That's what she meant. He was transported to an entirely

  592. new location. Yes. Yes.

  593. Yes.

  594. That's exactly how it's going to happen. Yes, Heinz feet.

  595. This is a prophetic isochronal event, Carol. Yes, when we

  596. get our Heinz feet.

  597. Yes.

  598. Okay.

  599. So.

  600. So, Psalm 24 further extrapolates on this. I don't need

  601. to get there yet. Okay, everybody. We're going to do,

  602. we're still going to do Psalm, or 1 Samuel 23, right?

  603. Yeah.

  604. Alright. Pray for Rachel that we can do it. We're

  605. going to do that here at 2.30. So, I hope

  606. everybody enjoyed. I hope I didn't create information overload for anybody,

  607. but let me just say this again. During the tribulation,

  608. we're going to be here on earth. Jesus Christ will

  609. still be in the throne. Okay, now Joni has a comment.

  610. It is interesting how the fact that their clothes didn't

  611. wear out has been taught differently, like it was God's provision. Yes,

  612. I know what those who have not been born again states, Joanie.

  613. That's what these teachers that haven't been born again, that's

  614. what they say.

  615. Maybe they just didn't know.

  616. Well, there's a reason why they don't know.

  617. I don't think that's why. Okay, alright.

  618. I will err on the side of mercy. So anyway, yes,

  619. very good, Joanie. So, Hopefully we'll be able to get

  620. back together here at 2.30. Till next time, everybody. God bless. Godspeed.
