Exodus 30:11   Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:  :12   “When you take the census of the children of Israel for their number, then every man shall give a ransom for himself (his soul) to the LORD, when you number them, that there may be no plague among them when you number them.

The purpose of the Census is to be protected from the judgment that is to come over the entire earth.  The purpose of the silver coin is to be a sign to the Angel of Judgment to pass over you and your household when this judgment occurs at the appointed time.  Your payment is to insure that your calling will be a light unto the world for the redemption of their souls.

The Plague

Our Heavenly Father established the silver coin as a sign similar to the blood on the doorpost during Passover.  Egypt represents the world system and the children of Israel were being set free from that system.  However, the system did not want to let go of them so Our Heavenly Father sent forth judgment over the entire land.  The children of Israel were not “raptured” out of the world but were covered or hidden from the Death Angel by the blood of the Lamb.  The plague in Exodus 30 is referring to:

Exodus 12:13  And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye [are]: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy [you], when I smite the land of Egypt.

This “token” or sign later became a half shekel or piece of silver.  The silver is the token or sign to identify you as being exempt from judgment by the Death Angel.  Your ransom has been paid.  You have been legally removed from the judgment.  Without the silver, your ransom is not perfected.  By a willingness to die to self you have already embraced the judgment over your flesh.

The Ransom

You are required to give a ransom for your soul.  The Hebrew word for ransom is kopher, meaning “pitch”.  Pitch was the covering applied to the ark in Genesis 6:14:

"Make for yourself an ark of gopher wood; you shall make the ark with rooms, and shall cover it inside and out with pitch.”

The pitch was the covering used to protect the eight souls from the judgment of the flood.  The pitch covered the wood to protect it against the destruction that was initiated by Our Heavenly Father.  Judgment was held back until Noah had completed the ark.  The last task to complete was to spread the pitch inside and out.  The ransom was the immediate precursor to the coming judgment to destroy all flesh.  Noah was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Noah walked with God.

2 Peter 2:5  and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people , a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;

The ransom protected Noah’s household.  He was known as a preacher of righteousness in an ungodly world.  It was necessary for righteousness to survive the judgment.  He and his household made up a righteous remnant to repopulate the earth.  Noah labored for five years (Jasher 5:34) and in his 600th year he finished the ark.  Noah’s completion of the ark was necessary before the judgment would begin.  Pitch was required for the ransom in the judgment of water.

Silver

In Exodus, Our Heavenly Father established silver as the material to be used for the ransom (Exodus 21:30-32).  Pitch was no longer used since Our Heavenly Father had established that HE would never judge the world again by using water.  HIS everlasting covenant:

Genesis 9:12   And God said: “This is the sign (token) of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:  13  I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. 14  It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; 15  and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.

The 2nd judgment of the whole earth is to be conducted with fire instead of water:

2 Peter 3:7   But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

Once again Our Heavenly Father will cover the righteous with a covering to protect them against the judgment of fire.  What better covering than that of silver.  This is the same covering placed over the wood as sockets for HIS Tabernacle in the wilderness.  Silver is the best conductor of heat and electricity of any metal on the periodic table.  Silver embraces heat thus the refining fire brings forth the complete conductivity of the judgment to come.

Our silver ransom is to bring forth deliverance to all of mankind.  We are entering into an agreement with our Heavenly Father for an inheritance.  Our inheritance of Love is for the souls of all men, not just a few.  Our Heavenly Father is using this remnant to be in unity for the restoration of all mankind.  Just as the Holy Spirit and fire was given as a down payment in the Book of Acts, we are now in agreement for the final payment of redemption.  The many Sons of GOD have been summoned into unity to bring forth the judgment of the current system.  This judgment would not come until the Sons were summoned.  The Census precedes the inheritance, and the inheritance is the world!  Silver connects the Divine to the earth and the coming fire of judgment will not consume silver but silver will act as the catalyst as the perfect conductor of heat.  Judgment will pass over those who are covered by the ransom of silver.  Ungodly men will be converted from vessels of dishonor to vessels of honor.  The Fire from Heaven will consume the wood, hay, and stubble.

The Timing

The revelation of the 2nd Census came during the 2nd Passover.  The purpose of the ransom is to protect the righteous during the 2nd judgment over the entire earth.  Jesus fulfilled the 1st Passover whereas the Sons of GOD are to fulfill the 2nd Passover.  The second Passover was commemorated on the 15th day of the 2nd month and this is when the children of Israel first received manna from Heaven.  This also establish the Sabbath cycle of rest on the seventh day (Exodus 16).  The Sons of GOD are now called to be the “manna” from Heaven, to bring forth the Word from Heaven.  Manna was collected “according to their number in the tent”, a type of census.  Stephen Jones has written much about Elisha, known for his double portion of 16 (Love).  As Stephen wrote: “Elijah (John) began his ministry at Passover, while Elisha is associated with the second coming of Christ, and therefore also the Second Passover.”  Hence the 2nd Passover is connected to the ministry of Love.  The Sons of GOD are fully empowered at the 2nd Coming of Christ.

The Treasury

Servias Ministries was formed seven years ago for the purpose of serving mankind.  The founding document was created on 2/22 of 2006.  Four days later the law firm created the papers to file.  Our Heavenly Father told me to form Servias Ministries without giving me any details of its intended use.  My calling as the Treasurer appeared to be dormant.  It appears that the calling has been activated for the Census.  Just as Moses had a treasurer to receive the half shekels and account for their use, on behalf of Servias Ministries I have been called to do the same.   The ransom money will be held in the Treasury until Our Heavenly Father directs its use.

The Census was proclaimed on May 1st : http://www.servias.org/?p=1714

Other information is contained in writings since May 1st.

What is the acceptable coin for my “piece of silver”?  The denomination is not as important as the content.  Silver denotes “redemption” in Scripture.  The half shekel is .27 ounces of silver.  The pre-1965 U.S. half dollars had an appropriate amount of silver.  What is most important is the intent behind the giving of the ransom money.  It is all about Love for mankind and their ultimate reconciliation to Our Heavenly Father.  Currently, the most common denomination being offered is the 1 ounce silver coin or silver round.  A silver round is “hallmarked” by the private mint to insure authenticity whereas the coin is stamped by the authorized mint.

For those who live in countries where there is no option to get silver and ship it to the “Treasury”, you should still register and check the box as shown below:

One aspect of Love is to help those without the resources to fulfill their calling.  You can see the last checkbox is for those who plan to “stand in the gap” with additional resources.  Those who write and give, not having ready access to the Internet, we will register you with the information you provide in your letter.

This census is not for everyone.  As we shared in our weekly online Bible study yesterday, a remnant is called to overtake the Midianites (strife and confusion).  22,000 of the children of Israel were full of “fear and trembling” and were sent home.  9,700 were not afraid but were not fully equipped with the Word to participate.  The final 300 were the ones “counted” and ordained to conduct the warfare against Midian.  They were as “broken pots or vessels” who brought forth light.

Our Heavenly Father does not need huge numbers to bring forth HIS Kingdom.  HE will use those who are in unity and are willing to be counted “in the net”.

As Stephen Jones intimated in his link to our website, this is the 2nd census taken.  The first census of the “overcomers” was conducted in 1993 for the specific purpose of Spiritual warfare.  However, this census is for both warfare and inheritance corresponding to the 2nd census of Numbers 26 in preparation of establishing rightful inheritance in the Promised Land.  Finally the children of Israel were to enter the Land and conquer the inhabitants prior to dividing the land for their inheritance.  When I was given the Word “Now is the Time”, little did I realize how Our Heavenly Father would order our steps in this manner.

What is our inheritance that we are all expecting?  The Kingdom on earth.  The Spiritual activity has now dramatically increased with my wife having two prophetic dreams, back to back:

1st Dream

On the morning of May 1st, the first day of the Census, my wife had a prophetic dream.  In the dream we were at a large gathering and there were many booths set up.  She could see many people but could not see their faces clearly.  She saw me talking to this very tall, large, muscular man who towered above me.  It was clearly an angel.  I came over to her with this pill I received from the man.  It was a large, clear pill containing an iridescent gel.  She immediately commented “another pill to add to our regimen of supplements!”  I sternly replied “Just take the pill!” (End of Dream)  I was reminded of Martin Paulat’s comments back in the 1990’s about his blood in his veins becoming “congealed light”.  His blood had transformed into light and was flowing and glowing throughout his body.

2nd Dream

Yesterday, May 2nd, my wife had a second dream.  She had been awaken at 5:32, went back to sleep, and had the dream.  Once again there were indescribable people and she was given the Word “Acts” and the numbers “one to ten”.  Then she was strongly and emphatically given the word “thoroughly” .  She woke up.  We inquired of Our Heavenly Father about the dream and were given the reference: Luke 13:20  And again He said, “To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? 21 It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal till it was all leavened.”  Acts Chapters 1 through 10 provide a detailed account: from the preparation of disciples to the preaching to the Gentiles.  This was the essence of the mandate to “go into all the world and preach the Gospel”.  The remnant is the lump that spread the Gospel to the whole world until it is all “leavened”.

532

My wife is not a “numbers” person so when she specifically mentions a number in a prophetic sense, I pay close attention.  Previous to the second dream, Our Heavenly Father had her focus on the time, it was 5:32.  This number had special meaning to me since it was the house number where I spent my childhood on Fairchild Drive.  532 is the Paschal Lamb cycle: 7 x 76 = 532 (Spiritual Perfection x cleansing).  From the Edict of Cyrus (Isaiah 45:03) to the birth of Jesus was 532 years.  See: http://www.gods-kingdom-ministries.net/teachings/books/secrets-of-time/chapter-8-the-cleansing-of-jerusalem/  The purpose of cleansing is putting away sin and corruption.  Much suffering takes place during the cleansing process as the heart is circumcised.

Citizenship requires a Census

Those who are called to establish Our Heavenly Father’s Kingdom on earth are required to be counted, thus becoming “accountable”.  In order for the family to receive an inheritance in the Promised Land, the males had to establish their right to inheritance when Moses was told by Our Heavenly Father to conduct the census.  If you didn’t show up, you were not given the inheritance.

An Independent Confirmation

Shari received an email from David Weber yesterday (May 2nd 7:53 A.M.):

Therefore, since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same attitude, because whoever suffers in the body is done with sin. (Peter 4:1)
This verse is really speaking to me today. The scriptures counsel us to arm ourselves with minds that are ready and willing to suffer, and yet so many believers today are seeking a path that bypasses suffering and leads around the disciple’s cross. This unfortunately is making many folks vulnerable to whole lot of deception. Even many of the preachers and church "leaders" today not having "armed themselves" with a mind to suffer are deceived and are bringing others into a false message.

There is a love for the world and for the self-life that is incompatible with the life and work of genuine disciples of Christ,  beloved, and there is an embrace of culture in ministry today that is God denying, truth distorting, Christ demeaning, and which is totally irreconcilable with the way of the Cross. Paul wrote to Timothy, "Demas has deserted me, because he loved this present world…" and even so many "ministers" today have deserted the truth of discipleship in Christ in that they love much of what the world loves and have built ministries which are compatible with that love. We have been told that this would happen.

I’m getting a sense now, beloved, that the Lord is walking among the lamp-stands (the churches) with eyes of flaming fire and with feet as burnished brass. In other words, hearts are being measured in this day, a divine census is being taken in order to determine who shall enter the Land of the Father’s Rest, and who will not.

Our weekly broadcasted Bible study has been focusing on the “Sufferings of Christ”.  Clearly, Our Heavenly Father is moving upon men at this time of final preparation.

What is our inheritance?

The entire population of the earth is our inheritance.  We are to convert vessels of dishonor to vessels of honor, to reconcile all mankind to Our Heavenly Father.  We are called to minister life to all men and speak forth life into them.  The remnant is called to “thoroughly” spread the Gospel to the uttermost parts of the earth.  We will be empowered with that pill of “light” and life that will transform our bodies so that we can be truly effective witnesses to all men.  We have stood up and “registered” our willingness to partake of the Sufferings of Christ that we may ascending to the same high calling.  We are casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.  Yes, we will suffer as we die to the flesh and are transformed into vessels of light.  So be it!

The following table provides some detail:

The First Census for Warfare:

Numbers 1:1 Now the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, in the tabernacle of meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying: 2 “Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of names, every male individually, 3 from twenty years old and above—all who are able to go to war in Israel. You and Aaron shall number them by their armies. 4 And with you there shall be a man from every tribe, each one the head of his father’s house.

The Second Census for Warfare and Inheritance:

Numbers 26:1 And it came to pass, after the plague, that the LORD spoke to Moses and Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying: 2 “Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel from twenty years old and above, by their fathers’ houses, all who are able to go to war in Israel.”

51 These are those who were numbered of the children of Israel: six hundred and one thousand seven hundred and thirty.

52 Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying: 53 “To these the land shall be divided as an inheritance, according to the number of names. 54 To a large tribe you shall give a larger inheritance, and to a small tribe you shall give a smaller inheritance. Each shall be given its inheritance according to those who were numbered of them.

When Our Heavenly Father provides us with specific numbers such as 1,820, we can expect a revelation of the relevance of that number.

Advice from Martin, our Postal Expert:

“In mailing the silver it should go in a small padded envelope so it will not be run through machines (The silver does not bend easily and I have found 1 oz rounds in the machines when cleaning them because they were mailed in letter envelopes that were torn open by the machines).  This will ensure proper delivery.”

What is the minimum age?

Jesus established that He was about HIS FATHER’S business prior to the age of 20.  If you are about OUR HEAVENLY FATHER’S Business at the age of 13 and older and believe you are to register, I am in agreement with you.

I forgot my password on the website, what should I do?

Email us at unity153@gmail.com and we will reset your password and notify you by email.

Can we “register” now and send the silver later?

Yes.  Once you have sent the silver, go back to “Your Information” and click on the question concerning the silver.

I don’t have the money to obtain a 1 ounce silver coin, how can I participate?

The registration period last until September 14th, 2013.  If you are unable to save enough to acquire a silver coin, write us at Servias Ministries, PO Box 1471, Bethany, OK 73008 and explain your situation.  We may be able to help through other members assisting you financially.  Remember, you can register before sending the coin.

“What do you mean by sending in our silver? Do you want an actual silver coin, a donation, or what? Several of us are interested. “

Yes, the silver coin is the tangible representation of your commitment to be counted.  Yesterday, I went down to the local coin shop and purchased two 1 ounce silver coins for Pam and myself as our “ransom money” requirement.  I paid $30 for each (a nice premium).  Our Heavenly  Father requires the coin in a census. (see: http://www.gods-kingdom-ministries.net/daily-weblogs/2009/01-2009/the-law-of-the-census-and-poll-tax-part-1/)   Yes, we will classify the coin as a donation to Servias Ministries.  We are making a record of the census and are accounting for all coins given.

Is there any particular coin I must send?

No, whatever is available.  I had no problem buying US Silver Eagles yesterday.  Friends in Great Britain are sending Aussie coins.  Remember, you can register online then later send the coin if you are having problems finding one.  Some may send Silver Rounds that are hallmarked by the silver producer such as NW Territorial Mint.

Is it okay to send additional coins or funds to help others who cannot afford the coin?

Absolutely.  We will track the need where others want to register but cannot afford the ransom.  Please check the appropriate box on the “Your Information” screen.

I can’t afford to send a coin, how do I let you know if sending a request through the mail is too difficult?

When you enter your information, after signing in, there is a checkbox for you to click on that indicates you need assistance.

If I have a friend or family member who does not have access to the Internet, can they still register?

Yes, we will register them into our database upon receiving their information and coin.  Our goal is to register everyone who is called, no matter what their financial status or technology status.

Should my wife and I each register separately?

Yes, that will help us track your information.

Is my personal information kept confidential?

Yes, we take all reasonable measures to protect your information.  When you login, we use a “secure” connection as indicated by the little lock up in the address bar.

I tried to access the site and got “page unavailable”.

“Page unavailable” occurs when we take the server down for nightly maintenance and system backup.  This normally occurs between 12:15 A.M. to 4:00 A.M. (Mountain Time)

I will answer other questions as they arise.  I may also include comments at our weekly online Bible study.  To participate live or watch this Bible study as a recording afterwards, go to  http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-baptism-of-love

The Purpose of the Bekah

In continuing my blog from yesterday, the bekah (half shekel) of silver was to be used in creating sockets for boards to be placed into.  These particular boards were to be the “pillars” of the Tabernacle.  Thus the socket was the base that touched the earth.  Silver is a natural antibiotic and would keep the boards from decaying.  The word “socket” comes from a root word meaning “strong” or “ruler”.  As I mentioned last time, silver refers to redemption in Scripture.  The bekah is given for the purpose of forming strong rulers who are placed between the Tabernacle (the dwelling place of Our Heavenly Father) and the earth.  This is a type and shadow of the “Sons of GOD”.

Our Heavenly Father authorized a census to be taken in Exodus 30:

" (12) When you take a census of the sons of Israel to number them, then each one of them shall give a ransom for himself to the Lord when you number them, that there may be no plague [negef, a trip of the foot; stumbling] among them when you number them."

The ransom was the bekah of silver.

Jesus’  Participation in 3 Censuses

First, Jesus participated in a census at birth:

Luke 2:1   And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered (and taxed).

Our Heavenly Father had the prophets prophesy about the census in that Jesus had to be born in Bethlehem where his father Joseph was required to be registered.  If the census had not been proclaimed Jesus would have been born in Nazareth.

Secondly, Jesus paid what had become a “temple tax” during His earthly ministry:

Matthew 17:27 Nevertheless, lest we offend them, go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for Me and you.”

It is understood that the coin was a didrachma (a silver coin of ancient Greece equal to two drachmas).  So Jesus paid for both himself and Peter (representing the church).  Where did the silver coin come from?  A fish who submitted to the words of Jesus.  So now we have a fish tied to the census offering.

Thirdly, after His resurrection Jesus in effect took another census.  Once again Peter and the fish were used to express a truth:

John 21:11 Simon Peter went up and dragged the net to land, full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not broken.12 Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast.”

The fish were counted thus a census was taken.  153 is the numeric value of the term “sons of GOD”.  It is also the calculated number of gallons of water turned into wine at the Wedding at Cana.

The Timing

Last week was proclaimed as the Second Passover and a small group 16 (Love), were called to assemble on behalf of the overcomers.  They were led to make the Divine Court decree for the dedication of the stones of the temple and the temple.  Now that this has been completed, it is time to take a census.  The Second Passover has too many ramifications to be covered here.  At any rate, I was given the Word to proclaim a census in the midst of the Second Passover week.

The Proclamation

“Father, today we proclaim a census of those who are called as “Sons of GOD” to be counted and registered in YOUR Sight.  We proclaim this census to span from today until the Day of Atonement, September 14th, 2013.  Let each person bring a piece of silver to YOUR Treasury.”

The Process

If you are led to participate, you may send your “piece of silver” to

Servias Ministries, Inc.

PO Box 1471

Bethany, OK 73008

We will place the coins in the Treasury and await Our Heavenly Father’s instruction for its specific use.  We now have unity153.net ready to register you online for the census.  Go to www.unity153.net and click the button to register.  For those who have already signed up, you can update your personal information and you will see two new questions by your “Name” field concerning the Census.  I will be sharing more for the need to be counted.

Since the 1 oz silver coin is the current standard silver coin, today I will be obtain one of these coins to represent my commitment.

You may want to refer to Stephen Jones’ blog on the census in Exodus:

The Ransom Money  (Exodus 30)

11   Then the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:

12   “When you take the census of the children of Israel for their number, then every man shall give a ransom for himself to the LORD, when you number them, that there may be no plague among them when you number them.

13   This is what everyone among those who are numbered shall give: half a shekel according to the shekel of the sanctuary (a shekel is twenty gerahs). The half-shekel shall be an offering to the LORD.

14   Everyone included among those who are numbered, from twenty years old and above, shall give an offering to the LORD.

15   The rich shall not give more and the poor shall not give less than half a shekel, when you give an offering to the LORD, to make atonement for yourselves.

16   And you shall take the atonement money of the children of Israel, and shall appoint it for the service of the tabernacle of meeting, that it may be a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD, to make atonement for yourselves.”

The bekah is equal to 10 gerahs.  A gerah is equal to the weight of 16 barley grains.  What does a bekah weigh?  It weighs 160 grains of barley, which, in modern measurements, would be approximately eight grams of silver.  Thus the most primary measure of monetary value is associated with Love (16) and barley (the overcomers or the remnant).  So the basis of the monetary system that Our Heavenly Father created is mathematically centered around Love and the Remnant.

Each man was to give a bekah during the census “that there be no plague" or judgment to come upon them.  This amount was deemed by Our Heavenly Father to be a reasonable sum for any man whether rich or poor.  This established the fact that all men are equal and that the rich do not have greater privilege or requirements placed upon them.

Exodus 38:25   And the silver from those who were numbered of the congregation was one hundred talents and one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels, according to the shekel of the sanctuary:

26   a bekah for each man (that is, half a shekel, according to the shekel of the sanctuary), for everyone included in the numbering from twenty years old and above, for six hundred and three thousand, five hundred and fifty men.

The relation between the talent and the shekel is defined  in the above Scripture. The half shekel brought by 603,550 men amounted to 100 talents and 1,775 shekels. Thus a talent was 3,000 shekels.

27   And from the hundred talents of silver were cast the sockets of the sanctuary and the bases of the veil: one hundred sockets from the hundred talents, one talent for each socket.

28  Then from the one thousand seven hundred and seventy-five shekels he made hooks for the pillars, overlaid their capitals, and made bands for them.

The tabernacle stood upon sockets of silver where the Divine interacts with the earth. Both Joseph and Jesus were sold for silver. Judas was paid off in silver (Matthew 26:15). Silver is redemption money. Silver is symbolic of the redemption that comes through Jesus Christ and Him alone. It prefigures the preciousness of Christ as the ransom for sinners. Note that there is no silver mentioned in heaven. The people will already have been redeemed.

Mark 10:45 "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."

Stephen Jones was given the Word that 2013 is the “Year of Release”.  The bekah establishes the value of the action required by those who were to be counted.  This ransom money was tied to Love and Love is the basis of being released (or redeemed) from bondage, even at the most fundamental measurements of value.  More to come…
