21 Days, Years

Tuesday, January 25th, 2011

Dan 10:2   In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.

Dan 10:3   I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.

Dan 10:4   And in the four and twentieth day of the first month, as I was by the side of the great river, which [is] Hiddekel;

Dan 10:5   Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins [were] girded with fine gold of Uphaz:

Often, we pray to Our Heavenly Father only to find that it appears our prayers have not been answered.  Time delays can be painful to our flesh but patience must have its perfect work.  Our minds would have us believe that those prayers fell by the wayside and would dash our hope against the rocks.  Daniel provides us a great lesson on timing.  Daniel was 89 years old at this time and he surely had gained much wisdom and understanding about spiritual things.

Daniel had been given a “word” or message from Our Heavenly Father.  This word needed greater understanding than Daniel had and so he prayed and fasted for 21 days.  Three full weeks passed and finally an angel appeared.  How many of us would pray and fast for three weeks?  These days, twenty-one days seems like an eternity to most.  The angel of THE LORD provides us some insight to what happened during those twenty-one days:

Dan 10:10   And, behold, an hand touched me, which set me upon my knees and [upon] the palms of my hands.

Dan 10:11   And he said unto me, O Daniel, a man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak unto thee, and stand upright: for unto thee am I now sent. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood trembling.

Dan 10:12   Then said he unto me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.

Dan 10:13   But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.

Dan 10:14   Now I am come to make thee understand what shall befall thy people in the latter days: for yet the vision [is] for [many] days.

The angel explains to us that Daniel’s prayers were heard immediately and Our Heavenly Father dispatched an angel to respond.  Angels are created for specific purposes and are empowered and given authority to complete their tasks.  We also know that they are involved in spiritual warfare and must deal with legal issues that arise.  They will not carry out lawless acts and must abide by any legal “injunctions” brought forth by the adversary.  The Heavenly Court System is accessible by your adversary as well as yourself.  (Read the Book of Job).

The angel was dispatch to explain the “word” to Daniel and established Daniel’s reputation in the Heavenly realm by calling him “Greatly Beloved”.  What a blessing to be known in Heaven as “Greatly Beloved”!

The time continuum that we live in requires faith and patience.  Anointing comes at a specific time to bring forth power, authority, understanding, wisdom, knowledge, and skill.  Whether it be 21 days for Daniel or 21 years for Jacob, we must keep our focus on Our Heavenly Father and HIS perfect plan, will, and purpose for our lives.

Comments on 1/11/11

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

There is always something spiritual occurring in the continuum of time.  I have yet to see a double witness of the expectation I had for this date.  Throughout my life, Our Heavenly Father has been faithful to point out double witnesses of a specific revelation.  That has not occurred yet.  I remain steadfast and will report the confirmation of this watch date.  Fruitfulness has a time factor associated with it.  Seed can be planted but one must wait for the fruit.  In the meantime, I will press on to a greater revelation of Love and serving mankind with the gifts and calling of the Covenant established by Our Heavenly Father.

William Ford, former Atlanta Fed president, had quite an interview on 1/11 holding nothing back about the health of the Fed: http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=1737278951&play=1

The Declaration of Our Covenant

Tuesday, January 11th, 2011

When Our Heavenly Father breathed life into Adam, our Covenant was initiated on earth.  That breath of Life still exists today.  Within that “zoe” life is our covenant with Our Heavenly Father.  HE formed us in the womb by Divine Intent.  Intent always precedes action and ultimately fruit.  Each of us has a unique covenant with Our Heavenly Father.  This covenant has Love at its source for GOD is Love.  That covenant in many if not most cases has lied dormant within us.  This covenant draws us to our gifts and their development.  Our gifts draw us to our various callings.  The flesh would have us believe otherwise but our covenant is greater than our flesh.  Many people of influence have little regard for the callings of others.  Their entitled view of life robs them of the enjoyment of interaction with the callings of those who come in contact with them.

Paul wrote “Now He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed us is God”.  The empowerment of our calling lies squarely with Our Heavenly Father and HE protects HIS Covenant of Love with a veil until such time we are ready to embrace it and embark on the journey our Covenant has called us to.  Paul clarifies his point by embracing the fact the Christ is in us and is to be revealed:

Galatians 1:15-16   But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through His grace, to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,  NKJV

In the past, we have view ourselves as “independent” of Our Heavenly Father, the “Ever Living”.  HIS Spirit is everywhere and one day our limited understanding may comprehend that fact.  Christ (the Anointed One) is in us, the hope of Glory!  The anointing is in us whether active or dormant.  The  veil of blindness is as a locked gate of protection of that calling until it pleases God to lift the veil of blindness from our eyes.

“I come boldly to the Throne of Grace, authorized by the Blood of Jesus Christ.  Father, I acknowledge and comprehend that CHRIST is indeed in me and the full power and administration of my calling awaits the removal of my blindness.  Today, I ask that you lift the veil and empower that which has been awaiting the fullness of time in my life.  May today be that appointed day!  May today be the timing of your anointing to spring forth in a greater manner yet to be seen.  I declare YOU to the world.  I declare my Covenant with YOU to the world.  I declare fruitfulness and blessing of this Covenant to mankind.  May this Declaration be enveloped in Love and empowered by the same.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen!”

Lunar Eclipse: A 356 Year Event

Tuesday, December 21st, 2010

image 

The blood-red eclipse lasted 72 minutes and it was the first total lunar eclipse to occur on the day of the Winter Solstice since 1638.  See: http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/5MCLE/5MCLE-Figs-09.pdf

This eclipse is precisely 21 days from my watch date of 1/11/11.  The wife and I set the alarm clock for 2AM and viewed the eclipse high above Bethany (where Jesus liked to hang out).  The high cirrus clouds did not impede our view, thankfully.  Known as the darkest day in our lifetime (the combination of the longest night and 72 minutes of an eclipsed moon), shouldn’t we expect more light (revelation) to come shortly?  Our Heavenly Father has used celestial events in the past to mark points in time.  Could this be one?

Dream of 12/19/10

Sunday, December 19th, 2010

I was awaken this morning by a dream and knew I had to write it down before the details escaped my memory:

I was in a building in a large hall of a congregation of about 2,000.  I was seated among the people and it appeared to be before a service.  There was another building next to us with a similar layout filled with people as well.  I could see them from where I was sitting.  There was a wide center aisle the separated the chairs as well another aisle in the midst thus creating four sections.  The hall was full and many people were seated but some were standing in the aisles talking to others.  Suddenly there appeared a man in the center aisle toward the front.  He wasn’t a large man but I knew immediately he was an angel.  He walked toward the front and touched a person about half way down his lower left leg.  The person fell down.  I was suddenly standing in the middle aisle watching the angel.  He walked by another person and touch that person at the same spot on the left leg.  That person fell.  He turned and looked at me and began walking toward me.  I raised my hands and spoke in other “tongues” and then began praising Our Heavenly Father.  The story of Jacob wrestling with the angel had come to mind and I was prepared to begin walking with a limp.  The angel seemed to smile and then touch the back of my left leg just above the knee joint just as he had done to the previous two people.  I prepared to fall but didn’t nor was I going to limp.  While my arms were lifted high, he raised his forefinger and twirled me around as though I was standing on a Lazy Susan.  My feet remained stationary, my body experienced no stress, and I did not feel his touch.  He then departed.  I knew that I had “passed the test”.  Suddenly I was at the front and had been asked to speak about what happened.  Initially, the hall was still full  of people.  I opened my Bible and was looking for Luke 13 to share with the people but the Bible’s primary version was Greek and made it difficult to find Luke 13.  I kept fumbling through the pages apologizing for the delay.  I looked up and now most of the people had gone to the other building and maybe 10% were still in this hall waiting for me to begin.  Seeing that I was having a problem finding the chapter I was looking for, a lady gave me her Bible.  I was still unable to find the Scripture to share with the people.  Her Bible had a similar problem.

I awoke from the dream and knew I had to record it to share.

Anticipation of Passover 2012

Wednesday, December 8th, 2010

On September 29th, 1999, we celebrated the 2000th birthday of Our Lord Jesus Christ as Port Austin, Michigan.  By all reckoning, this was THE date.  Contrary to popular belief, Jesus was born on the Feast of Trumpets (Rosh Hashanah), not December 25th.  However, it is reckoned that HE was conceived on Christmas eve.  A wealthy businessman placed an ad in USA Today to notify the world of this day of celebration at Port Austin.  A few hundred people attended the time of celebration and much prophetic work was done.  Unexpectedly during one teaching session, a person entered the building playing the bagpipe and blessed us with “Amazing Grace”.  Nobody knew this person and could not find the person afterwards.  Was it an angel?  That night the celebration concluded with a fireworks display and the smoke also formed an angelic being.  The celebration concluded without any physical manifestation of the conclusion of the “two day” prophetic time period, the pentecostal church age.  However, Jesus is the pattern son for the sons of GOD.  If we follow His chronological timeframe then the birthing of the “sons of GOD” took place on 9/29/99.  Just as the world did not recognize the importance of the birth of Jesus, it would also fail to acknowledge the birth of the many sons or the elect.

I’ve always been intrigued with the following Scripture:

Luke 2:40  And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him.

Luke 2:41 Now his parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover.

Luke 2:42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.

Luke 2:43 And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and his mother knew not [of it].

Luke 2:44 But they, supposing him to have been in the company, went a day’s journey; and they sought him among [their] kinsfolk and acquaintance.

Luke 2:45 And when they found him not, they turned back again to Jerusalem, seeking him.

Luke 2:46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.

Luke 2:47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.

Luke 2:48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.

Luke 2:49 And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?

Luke 2:50 And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.

Luke 2:51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject unto them: but his mother kept all these sayings in her heart.

Luke 2:52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

There is virtually no mention of Jesus’ earlier years except for this passage when He was 12 1/2 years old.  Each year He attended the feasts with His parents but this year something else happened, He discussed the Law with those in authority and they were astonished by His knowledge, understanding, skill, and wisdom.  At the age of 12, every Jewish boy becomes “a son of the Law” in preparation of his bar mitzvah at the age of 13.  At this time, the boy either accepts or rejects the Law.  If he accepts the Law, he then becomes a son of the Law.

Whoever becomes Bar Mitzvah (son of the Commandment) has the responsibilities of an adult Jew under Jewish law. These include:

  • Moral responsibility for own actions
  • Eligibility to be called to read from the Torah.
  • May possess personal property
  • May be legally married according to Jewish law
  • Must follow the 613 laws of the Torah

If the elect follow this pattern, then we would expect to “accept” the Law at Passover, April 7th, 2012, and become “sons of The Law” at Rosh Hashanah.  We could then become legally acceptable as the “bride of Christ”.  May 27th,2012 celebrates the giving of the Law at Mt. Sinai.  The Bar Mitzvah would occur on 9/17-9/18 of 2012, a “two day” day.  Could it be that at this time, the sons of GOD increase in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man?  Is this the transition the Mayans were predicting in their calendar?

265- A subtle mystery

Wednesday, November 24th, 2010

In the world of mathematics, there are many relationships that can be presented in a mathematical fashion that reveal our Creator’s hand.  For instance, Bonnie Gaunt has written on the number 3168 (the numerical value of Lord Jesus Christ) being the primary constant of the distances in our universe.  The values of Pi and Phi, the golden ratio, and other mathematical expressions intrigue those who are acquainted with their use.  I would submit another number that might prove to be of interest: 265.

I was led to go to Genesis Chapter 5 to find the inferred use of 265:

Patriarch                           Age                      Offspring                                                   Year

Adam was          130  when       Seth was born in the year           130

Seth was            105  when      Enos was born in the year           235

Enos was            90  when       Cainan was born in the year         325

Cainan was         70  when       Mahalaleel was born in the year   395

Notice the time period from Seth’s birth to Mahalaleel’s birth was 265 years.  What happened during this period of time?  Genesis 4:26 reveals an interesting fact:  And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the LORD.

Seth’s son began the time when man called upon the name of Jehovah (the proper name of the one true God).

Who in the New Testament does this group reflect?  The Sons of GOD, with a numerical value of 153.  Those 153 fish mentioned at the end of the Book of John that filled the net responding to the command of Jesus were motivated by Love.  How are these two groups connected?  \scriptstyle \sqrt {3}  The square root of 3.  The square root of 3 is the positive real number that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number 3.

The GODHEAD (Father, Son, Holy Spirit); spirit, soul, body;  Holy of Holies, Holy Place, Outer Court

The square root of three  \tfrac{1351}{780} > \sqrt{3} > \tfrac{265}{153}\,.  It is contained between these two fractions (or divisions).

The first sixty significant digits of its decimal expansion are: 1.73205 08075 68877 29352 74463 41505 87236 69428 05253 81038 06280 5580…  towards infinity.

The Sons of GOD are just a little less than the square root of 3 but cannot be differentiated from this number representing the Trinity.  It is no wonder that these two groups could be mathematically coupled together to represent the infinite aspects of Our Heavenly Father.  Yes, even the numbers point to the mysteries of The Scripture.

By the way, the Feast of Tabernacles began at sundown on the 265th day this year.

The Top 100 Churches

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

One of our contributors funded a mailing of “The Circumcised Heart of Love” to the Top 100 Churches in the U.S.  As those of you who have read the book know, the theme of “restoration of all mankind” is addressed.  The GOD of Love who designed and created each of us will restore us to Himself no matter what level of sin we commit.  The Blood of Jesus was sufficient!

I am convinced that the Revelation of Love will usher in the next age.  This revelation should not be withheld from the masses and those who have been selected to minister to them.  Will the book be read?  Only Our Heavenly Father knows.  Our job is to sow seed knowing that Our Heavenly Father will provide the increase.

People interested in Biblical numbers read books on the topic.  People interested in Faith read books to further their understanding.  People interested in the Revelation of Love will this book.  I find personally that when a book challenges a preconceived notion that the mind wants to hold on to, the book will not be read.  The ego does not like to be challenged.  It will be interesting to observe the results of yesterday’s mailing.

The Plans of Men

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

Lightning streaks across the sky as lava flows from a volcano in Eyjafjallajokul April 17, 2010. (REUTERS/Lucas Jackson)

This volcano in Iceland affected the plans of air travelers in Europe for several days.  This unexpected event could not be planned for by man.  Historically, its neighboring volcano has been known to erupt shortly afterwards with a potential of 100 times the intensity which could affect the entire globe.

Proverbs 19:21  Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails. (NIV)

I was recently at a technical conference where the presenter shared the overall data/information creation and storage projections of companies in the U.S.     The numbers were given in terms of exabytes (or characters: a, b, c, 1, 2, 3, etc.).  An exabyte is 1,152,921,504,606,846,976 (260) bytes.  Does all of this storage really matter in the end?  Man spends all of his time devising plans to achieve wealth, power, and immortality without regard of Our Heavenly Father’s purpose for the planet.  In a most subtle fashion, this is an attempt to exalt oneself above Our Heavenly Father and is a form of man’s judgment.  Man’s ego is at the center of this intent.  Just as man was exalting himself at the Tower of Babel, today’s society is attempting to create another “Tower”.  Man’s plan just won’t fly!  This volcanic event superseded all of man’s travel plans in Europe… and without notice… a Black Swan event.  Volcanic ash & particles have a cooling impact on the weather in the affected areas.  So much for global warming!

Wouldn’t be a better use of time and energy to simply seek the LORD’s purpose.  By the way, all those exabytes should be backed up every night to storage media so you won’t lose your data.  What a mess we are creating!

The Exposure of Fraud

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

Fraud is an intentional deception made for personal gain or to damage another individual; any act of deception carried out for the purpose of unfair, undeserved and/or unlawful gain.  Various degrees of fraud are carried out by most all business sectors in the American economy but the underlying intent is the same: love of money.

The problem with the current judicial system is that it is woefully lacking in determining “intent”.  The hearts of men continually devise methods and means to defraud others and use a variety of excuses and justifications to perpetrate a fraud.  Deception traces its roots back to the Garden of Eden.  The Scripture conveys many stories of “intentional deception” for personal gain.  Once fraud is introduced into a transaction, time, energy, and resources are sucked up to perpetuate the fraud and usually turns out to be a greater cost, both personally and professionally, than the original amount tied to fraud.

The act of deception damages another person which is contrary to Love.  When you deceive another, you rob that person of a blessing and potentially affect the rest of his or her life.  At the root of fraud is a lie and that lie brings forth bondage whereas the truth sets you free.  Our society promotes lies even if it does so in a passive manner.  One of our recent presidents was caught in a lie concerning a sexual act and the citizenry responded in a passive manner since their pocketbooks were not affected.

The system has made it difficult to right a wrong.  If someone defrauds you out of a hundred bucks, you will not seek legal remedy because it costs more than the money you lost.  If someone fails to pay your invoice and you threaten legal action, their attorney will trump up reasons why the invoice should not be paid.  This in turn raises the stakes in any attempt to recover the money owed.  Many attorneys use deception to win court cases and legal disputes.  Wall Street has intentionally deceived investors totaling trillions of dollars and to unravel all of this deception, it will take years and millions of dollars.  The question is “Will only the low level managers be thrown under the bus to satisfy the regulators or will executive management be in their crosshairs as well?”  I suspect that mid level managers at Goldman Sachs are sweating bullets right now.

The SEC has been under fire by Congress for failing to properly regulate Wall Street.  In this election year, Congressmen must position themselves as defenders of the average citizen.  With this in mind, expect to see a new look in Congress.  They will grill the Wall Street firms about their fraudulent activities while those executives will claim memory loss (with a wink of the eye).  The media will highlight the activism by the various committees to satisfy the voter unrest, pointing to the November elections.  Is this another level of fraud or deception?

Fraud is so widespread that only Our Heavenly Father can sort it all out.  HE knows men’s hearts and their intent.  We must trust that the day of reconciling the books will come soon.  On a corporate basis, it often takes years but it seems now that the culmination of deception may be at hand.  When the light shines on darkness, the roaches head for cover.  It is interesting to note that we are only 30 months away from the end of the Mayan Calendar.  Our Heavenly Father is the author of all true revelation.  Could this calendar have simply pointed to the end of the age of deception and the revealing of the long awaited Sons of GOD?
