THE ARGENTINE REVIVAL OF 1954 REVEALS GOD’S PRINCIPLES WE SHOULD FOLLOW

Back in the early 1970’s I came across a small staple bound booklet containing about 70 pages. It was about the Argentine revival which took place in 1954 in Argentina.

This small booklet set my heart on fire when I read it. It brought tears to my eyes. It was an amazing account that has all but been forgotten today.

About 5 years ago I began an internet search for this small booklet which name I did not remember. I never found this booklet but I did find Dr. Edward Miller’s book “Secrets of the Argentine Revival” and purchased it. https://www.amazon.com/Secrets-Argentine-Revival-Edward-Miller/dp/0945818181

Dr. Miller was an evangelist who was serving in Argentina and was used by God as the catalyst to begin this national revival.

He began to question God on why his service for the Lord had produced so little true and lasting results. He felt perhaps he should quit and get a regular job. He decided before he took that radical step he would seek the Lord diligently for direction.

He then began to earnestly seek God through prayer and fasting. Weeks and then months went by without much of an answer. He continued. Then suddenly one day he heard the voice of God in his spirit and was catapulted into unknown realms of glory and power. He said, “The windows of heaven were opened and in the spirit I saw things unlawful to be uttered”. He was never the same again.

He waited on God for six more weeks. Then he was told to ask the people of the small village church he was ministering in to meet for a prayer meeting that Monday night. They were to come at eight o’clock and be prepared to meet until midnight. If they were not prepared to stay until midnight he was to tell them not to come.

Three people showed up! He prayed and sang for four hours. None of them said a word.                                                                                                                                   

After four hours he asked them if they had anything to say or if anything had come to them. Only one woman had anything to say. She said she felt as though she was supposed to hit the table in the room with her hand but she refused to because she thought it preposterous. The meeting ended.

This went on for the next three meetings. On the fourth evening the woman obeyed God and hit the table with her hand. Immediately the wind of the spirit rushed through the room and this timid woman was praising and worshipping with her hands in the air. The other two people were also hit by the spirit praising and worshipping God.

This happened in Mendoza, Argentina. That small meeting of three people turned into a one year revival of people coming from all over the area, night after night.

Eventually it quieted but took place, months later, at a Bible School in City Bell, Argentina where Dr. Miller was teaching. A boy began praying in a field and had an angelic visitor. He ran to the school and the spirit hit the school for weeks as the students began to weep and repent with tears.

Great prophecies were spoken concerning the nations of the world and cities that would be visited prior to the return of Jesus. Some of the young people prophesying were not highly educated but spoke in refined language as they were given words.

The most incredible prophecy was directed at Evita Peron the idolatrous, adulterous, and spiritualist wife of President Peron. This is the same Evita that was glorified back in the 1980’s in the play “EVITA”.

She was heavily into the occult and was virtually running the country. She would rent boxing arenas for spiritualist conventions. She was turning the people towards this.

The prophecy for her was that God was going to end her life soon and that she would tremble at His presence. She would see the thunder of His Presence fall upon her face and die. All of her men would be removed from government.

Within a year she became ill with a disease that was incurable in the 1950’s—Leukemia a terrible cancer of the blood. This young beautiful but evil and wicked person died—tearing out her hair in rage!

Have we ever seen such a thing? The fear of God was coming upon a nation. We live in a time where there is no longer a fear of God. Argentina’s wicked Eva Peron experienced it.

Later, after this move of God upon the Bible School, it was two years before the Lord moved again in Buenos Aires the capital city. The faith of those at the prior event at the school waited for two years. Their faith was tested.

A little known evangelist named Tommy Hicks was sent by God to Buenos Aires and through miraculous events was allowed to preach for 50 days in large stadiums to over 8 million people during those 50 days.

We have yet to see such true power of God in the United States for more than 75 years.

The basis for the beginning of this revival was the obedience of those who served the Lord and the deep spirit of repentance upon all who prayed and received visitation.

The following are the principles Dr. Miller said were ordained by God for them to follow:

1.     God desired small private and group prayer where the Holy Spirit is allowed freedom to move in and through them as He wills.

2.     God through Jesus is the Head and functions in a practical way through the Word and leading of the Holy Spirit.

3.     The Spirit worked through divinely given ministries, rather than men trying to establish ministries that God has not ordained.

4.     God desires repentance to be a state—rather than an isolated event or experience. He desires freedom for people to express that repentance—whether in private contrition or public—if the Spirit leads.

5.     God desires development of the fruit of the Spirit to balance the manifestation of spiritual gifts and real transformation of individuals.

6.     God desires to provide financially through faith and prayer rather than through operation of programs, appeals, raffles, and such.

7.     God desires full and free expression of praise and worship. He wants the spirit of prophecy to rest upon His people. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. God does not want to be rushed nor required to do His work in an hour. The church must wait upon HIM and spend much time in His presence.

8.     Move into His presence through praise and worship with continued cleansing of their hearts so that this worship and praise does not become empty entertainment or religious emptiness.

If we desire to see true revival and spiritual repentance we must individually approach God alone. We must truly seek Him out. We have not as yet sought Him diligently in this manner. I include myself in this.

Our country is facing a most serious time in its history. As individuals we must seek Him and seek His cleansing power in our lives. Then perhaps we will see things unlawful to utter in the spirit.

                                            GOD’S WAY IS WAY ABOVE OUR WAY

Sometimes things just have to germinate for a while. I would love to post everyday but that would not be realistic. Sometimes I can post every other day and sometimes there must be solitude before posting—that is reality. Posting and sharing is not a technique—it is waiting and ruminating—then we post.

I’ve been ruminating on how Elohim’s ways are so above our ways. The church has packaged everything and perfected all the techniques learned in the colleges of the world. As Daniel said, there is an increase in knowledge today (Dan 12.4) and many running to and fro.

Much of this knowledge is the knowledge of the Mystery Babylonian world we live in today. We go to church for an hour and a half each week. Forty-five minutes of the service is rock n roll worship, fifteen minutes is announcements, and a half hour message on “how to become all you can be”, and that’s all for the week. Maybe an hour Bible study on Wednesday night?

Doesn’t everything just seemed totally packaged with technique laden platitudes, shallow as an ash tray? Does everyone have to be ON all the time? Could our leaders dial it down a bit? Turn off the switch, be real and really talk to us?

The Father doesn’t work this way. He is much more deliberate and patient with us. His ways are beyond our comprehension. He would like to slow it down and make it real. This is not always easy on our action addicted personalities. We want to become—He desires us to be.

Walking in the spirit is walking in the Law/Torah of Yahweh. The fruits of the spirit in our lives are everything which the Torah commands us. Look at the works of the flesh:

 “Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.” Galatians 5.19-21

Note that all the works of the flesh are against the Law as written in the Torah. Look at Acts 15 on the question of whether new believers had to be physically circumcised. They were told to avoid idols, fornication, and eating of blood. Then they were told to go to the synagogue where the Law of Moses was read and studied each Sabbath--all day (Acts 15.19-21), not 1 1/2 hours--to learn the rest of the Law.

The fruit of the spirit is walking in the “spirit” of God’s Royal Law:

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law, and those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Galatians 5.22-25

Therefore we are not under the curse of the law—but we walk in the spirit of God’s law. Therefore we must meditate on and love God’s law. We are justified by our faith in God’s operation of circumcising our hearts (Ezekiel 20.18-32; Romans 2.28-29) and Yeshua’s sacrifice.

That is surely above how any technique of man would attempt to do this. This is a spiritual operation and walked out in the Spirit. We obey our “Code of Conduct” which is the Torah. This produces the fruits of the Spirit in our lives.

Three men come to mind when thinking of God’s ways being above our ways: The three are Moses, David, and Paul the Apostle. They learned to yield to God and walk in the spirit—not some formula or technique.

Moses killed a man when trying to break up an argument (Exodus 2.11-15) and fled into the wilderness.

David committed adultery with Uriah’s wife and had him sent to the front of battle to be killed (2 Sam 11).

Paul severely persecuted the early believers and condoned their stoning (Acts 7.57-8.3).

How would these men be so favored of God? Why did He choose them? He even said David was a man after His heart (1 Sam 13.14, Acts 13.22)! How would man’s justice system deal with these men? What did God see in them? Where would they be if given over to the judgment of men?

Elohim first looked at their hearts. These were zealous men who truly believed in what they were doing, or in David’s case, he got caught up in lust, but he was overall zealous for his Elohim. You or I would most likely not look to these men to accomplish God’s purpose. They wouldn’t fit the formula.

The key factor, in the hearts of these men, was that when confronted with the truth they did not deny, but accepted truth, and REPENTED. They had repentant hearts. Hearts that could be changed and molded by Yahweh. A humble and repentant heart is key. These men were A type personalities—but when confronted by the Living God—they fell on their faces before Him.

They also paid for their sins. Moses in the wilderness for 40 years waiting for God to fulfill His promise. So long in the wilderness that Moses almost forgot how to speak (Ex 4.10)!

David lost his first child with Bathsheba and his family caused him great pain.

Paul was blinded for three days and gave up all his worldly positions.

They paid for their sins without complaint. They “manned up” so to speak and God used them to fulfill His purposes. They turned from their ways and all the techniques they had been taught in the world.

Then there is another great man of scripture that is rarely spoken of—Obadiah. Here is a true example of God’s ways being way above our ways. Obadiah was the governor of King Ahab’s house. Ahab is the most evil king of the Northern Tribes of Israel. Jezebel was his wicked wife.

Obadiah was a man of God working for the wickedest king in Israel! Most Christians I know, including myself, would have said, “No way am I working for that wicked man, much less step foot into his house!” Yeah, we would quit that job in a minute!

Not Obadiah. He knew his God in a deep way. He knew he was placed there for a Divine purpose. Obadiah saved the lives of a hundred prophets, hiding them in caves, when Jezebel went after them (1 Kings 18.4).

We all need to slow down…quiet ourselves…wait. The techniques of the world, the formulas to increase the numbers of congregations, the entertainment in music ministry, and preaching need to be re-examined. God’s way is way above our way. God wants to place us in some strange places and positions of service.

Slow down and hear what God is saying. This is not about your “best destiny” or how to prosper in the Lord. It is about walking righteously in Him each day. It is about a higher obedience and walk. It is about HE not ME! The world is all about ME.

Life is not a pep rally. It is one day at a time, slugging it out. It has wonderful moments and experiences, but we shouldn’t have to be pumped up once a week. Walk it out a day at a time and hear God for yourself—not what somebody else tells you. Hear Him. Wait on Him.

Yeshua’s disciples will move at His pace. We will accomplish His will in His time. Seek and wait for it!

 

BIBLICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR KING MESSIAH

Source: Biltz, Mark. Decoding the Antichrist and the End Times (p. 54). Charisma House. Kindle Edition.

Keeping true to the Scriptures, what verses do the Jews use to describe their Messiah and what will be accomplished?

1. Messiah will be a military leader. We see from Zechariah 14: 3– 4 that “the LORD [shall] go forth, and fight against those nations, as when he fought in the day of battle. And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.” We sure know that has not happened yet! Zechariah goes on to say in verse 9 that “the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.” We know the LORD is definitely not physically king over all the earth at this time.

2. Messiah gathers the outcasts of Israel and Judah back to their land. According to Isaiah 11: 12, the Messiah will gather all the Jewish exiles from around the world. “He shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth” (emphasis added). This concept is reiterated in Jeremiah 30:

Thus speaketh the LORD God of Israel, saying, Write thee all the words that I have spoken unto thee in a book. For, lo, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel and Judah, saith the LORD: and I will cause them to return to the land that I gave to their fathers, and they shall possess it. And these are the words that the LORD spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah. For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace. Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness? Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be saved out of it. —JEREMIAH 30: 2– 7, EMPHASIS ADDED

3. Messiah will bring redemption to the Israelites and restore their fortunes, and they will all be righteous. At that time will I bring you again, even in the time that I gather you: for I will make you a name and a praise among all people of the earth, when I turn back your captivity before your eyes, saith the LORD. —ZEPHANIAH 3: 20

We also see from Zechariah 14: 14 that “Judah also shall fight at Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the heathen round about shall be gathered together, gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance.” And get a load of this! Isaiah 60 mentions the gates of Jerusalem will be open continually day and night because the wealth of the nations will be brought to them. Every nation that doesn’t serve Israel will perish, and all those who afflicted and despised the Jewish people will bow down before them. Jerusalem will be called the city of the Lord. This is beyond imagination!

4. Messiah will reestablish the feasts of the Lord. It shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall even go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles. And it shall be, that whoso will not come up of all the families of the earth unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, even upon them shall be no rain. —ZECHARIAH 14: 16– 17

We are definitely talking a whole new world here! Can you imagine every nation having to send representatives to Jerusalem to keep the Feast of Tabernacles in order for their countries not to experience drought and plague? There will be human survivors after Armageddon who will have to come every year to the temple in Jerusalem that Messiah builds. So the Jewish people are expecting a messiah who will be a great military leader, conquering the entire world and bringing it under the submission of a Jewish messiah who teaches God’s Torah to the nations.

5. The Torah will be magnified, have its honor restored, and be taught to all nations, as Jerusalem becomes the capital of the world.  But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it. And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. —MICAH 4: 1– 2, EMPHASIS ADDED

Wow! People from all nations will come to Jerusalem as not only the capital of Israel but the capital of the whole world, and the Torah will be magnified and taught to all nations. Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see. Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? Who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD’s servant? Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not. The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness’ sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable. But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. Who among you will give ear to this? Who will hearken and hear for the time to come? Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? Did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law. —ISAIAH 42: 18– 24

The ones God refers to as being spiritually blind and deaf are not the heathen but His own people who refuse to hear and obey the Law. When it says “who will hearken and hear for the time to come,” the phrase “time to come” refers to the last generation! The Law, or the Torah, is to be magnified and made honorable. Yet we find the ones who are robbed and plundered are those who do not walk in God’s ways. Psalm 138: 2 states that God has exalted His Word even above His name! If He goes against His own Word, it would definitely dishonor His name.

6. Messiah Himself builds the temple and is both a priest and a king in Jerusalem. This comes from Zechariah 6: 12– 13: Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place; and he shall build the temple of the LORD: even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his throne; and he shall be a priest upon his throne: and the counsel of peace shall be between them both. We are seeing a messiah who will be both a priest and a king! Look at these verses in the Book of Ezekiel:

The glory of the LORD came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east. So the spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and, behold, the glory of the LORD filled the house. I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and the man stood by me. And he said unto me, Son of man, the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel for ever, and my holy name, shall the house of Israel no more defile, neither they, nor their kings, by their whoredom, nor by the carcasses of their kings in their high places. —EZEKIEL 43: 4– 7, EMPHASIS ADDED

7. There will be a supernatural peace in the land of Israel. According to Isaiah 11: 6 and 9, there will be nothing but peace in Jerusalem: “The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them . . . for the whole earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.” And in Zephaniah we find the following:

The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid. —ZEPHANIAH 3: 13

8. Strangers or non-Jews will also be welcome to live in the land of Israel and enjoy the temple. So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel. And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel. And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord GOD. —EZEKIEL 47: 21– 23, EMPHASIS ADDED

Ezekiel 48 mentions the gates of the city of Jerusalem being named after the tribes of Israel. There will not be any non-Jewish gates. The Jewish people very strongly believe in the new covenant! We read about it in Jeremiah 31: 31, which says, “Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah.” Did you see that! The new covenant is not with Gentiles. Gentiles are grafted into the covenant God made with the Jewish people. So just what kind of covenant is this new covenant? It says in verse 33 that “this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.” Oh my. The Torah will not be done away with but will be written on the heart instead of being written on stone. Some might think that because the Israelites have rejected Yeshua, God has forsaken them. But look at what the Scriptures say concerning Israel in regard to the new covenant:

If these ordinances depart from before me, saith the LORD, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me forever. Thus saith the LORD; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the LORD. —JEREMIAH 31: 36– 37

Not only that; some may argue that the land covenant made to Abraham four thousand years ago has expired and the land now belongs to the Palestinians. If a generation is sixty years, then from the creation of Adam until now it has only been one hundred generations, or six thousand years! In the Book of Psalms, God confirms the land covenant He made with Abraham for a thousand generations!

That’s sixty thousand years, or all the time of human existence up to now times ten! He hath remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations. Which covenant he made with Abraham, and his oath unto Isaac; and confirmed the same to Jacob for a law, and to Israel for an everlasting covenant: saying, Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance. —PSALM 105: 8– 11

So the Jewish Messiah will come and confirm the land covenant. After all, it is His own inheritance, and He will not divide it or give any of it away. Now, this next one is very controversial! What else will the Jewish Messiah accomplish?

9. The Messiah restarts the priesthood and the sacrificial system. Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the first month, in the first day of the month, thou shalt take a young bullock without blemish, and cleanse the sanctuary: and the priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it upon the posts of the house, and upon the four corners of the settle of the altar, and upon the posts of the gate of the inner court. And so thou shalt do the seventh day of the month for every one that erreth, and for him that is simple: so shall ye reconcile the house. In the first month, in the fourteenth day of the month, ye shall have the passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread shall be eaten. —EZEKIEL 45: 18– 21

The last several chapters of Ezekiel speak of the Messianic era when the Messiah builds the temple and the sacrifices are reinstituted. Ezekiel’s temple has not been built yet! Here is an unbelievable verse:

Thus saith the Lord GOD; No stranger, uncircumcised in heart, nor uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of any stranger that is among the children of Israel. And the Levites that are gone away far from me, when Israel went astray, which went astray away from me after their idols; they shall even bear their iniquity. Yet they shall be ministers in my sanctuary, having charge at the gates of the house, and ministering to the house: they shall slay the burnt offering and the sacrifice for the people, and they shall stand before them to minister unto them. —EZEKIEL 44: 9– 11, EMPHASIS ADDED

We know for a fact that only God Himself can determine if someone’s heart is uncircumcised. Many believers recoil at the thought of the sacrificial system being reinstituted, but that’s because they never really understood the sacrificial system. I realize there is much controversy about the sacrificial system after the cross in the future millennial temple, but I also believe in sticking to the plain meaning of the text rather than allegorizing everything away that does not fit our theology. If that were the case, then the wages of sin would no longer be death but just unhappy feelings, and the Ten Commandments would become ten suggestions. Even when we can derive other symbolism or meanings from the Scriptures, we are still to never do away with the plain meaning of the text.

We also need to realize that classifying all Jewish tradition as non-biblical is anti-Semitic. There are a lot of Christian traditions that are non-biblical as well. There is a lot of tradition on both sides that has nothing wrong with it; it’s just tradition. So we need to set aside our prejudices and simply read the Bible for what it says. The daily sacrifices were never for intentional sin. The Jews never believed the daily sacrifices atoned for intentional sins either. Yes, there were sacrifices for sin, but they were for sins of ignorance and not intentional sins. The only way the Jewish people ever felt they could find forgiveness for intentional sins was through confession of their sin, repentance, and making restitution as required in the Torah. The sacrifices were one way for them to draw near to God and sit at His table and have a meal together. Biltz, Mark. Decoding the Antichrist and the End Times (p. 54). Charisma House.

ELECTION DAY 2022 – BLOOD MOON RISING – CORRUPT SYSTEM FAIL – POLITICS IN THE BIBLE

Got up this morning and watched the blood moon eclipse. It is a natural occurrence—that appears at a mathematically appointed time. Nothing mystical about that. The appointed time, however, has been mathematically appointed and determined by our Elohim Yehovah. That is key to understanding these signs in the heavens (Genesis 1.14). He has determined the time the signs appear!

This blood moon’s appointed time was 4:10 AM EST. This morning was Election Day in the United States. No matter the outcome of the vote, we are expecting a RED WAVE. Red moon, red wave. The people will speak. The outcome, however, most likely will be contested. The current elites in charge do not want to give up their power. They don’t care about the will of the people—only that they remain in power.

In Hebrew tradition a red moon is an omen of the wicked being judged. I truly believe that our Elohim is going to judge the current criminal syndicate. This election is going to expose their corrupt system once and for all. They aren’t going to get away with it again. It may take some time—but they are going to feel pain as justice will be meted out upon them! Speaking of omens President Trump was born on June 14, 1946. There was a blood moon on that day! God’s mathematics at work!

There is nothing new under the sun. The WORD OF GOD, the BIBLE, is full of political intrigue and corrupt activities. Jehoram immediately comes to mind in 2 Chronicles 21.4 when he put his rival brothers to death. In 2 Kings 9:30 thru 10:36 we see the account of Jehu killing the house of Ahab and Jezebel. Has anything really changed? This world and politics is dirty business, but God works in His mysterious ways to bring about justice on the wicked.

My favorite Biblical example of political intrigue is the story of how King David became King over all Israel. It began of course when he was anointed by Samuel. That was just the beginning as he was heavily persecuted thereafter by King Saul. The most interesting part is how the process played out.

As David is being persecuted by King Saul hundreds of discontented Patriots rallied around David: David therefore departed from there (Achish King of Gath) and escaped to the cave of Adullam. So when his brothers and all his father’s house heard it, they went down there to him.  And everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him. So he became captain over them. And there were about four hundred men with him.

Then David went from there to Mizpah of Moab; and he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and mother come here with you, till I know what God will do for me.”  So he brought them before the king of Moab, and they dwelt with him all the time that David was in the stronghold. 1 Samuel 22:1-4

Those who were discontented were in despair, angry, in debt by heavy usury, and bitter about the current political state of things under King Saul. David, as the anointed of God refused to kill Saul. David was secure in knowing God was on his side and he would become King of all Israel at God’s appointed time.

After the death of King Saul David was chosen by the tribe of Judah to be their King: It happened after this that David inquired of the Lord, saying, “Shall I go up to any of the cities of Judah? ”And the Lord said to him, “Go up.” David said, “Where shall I go up?” And He said, “To Hebron.” So David went up there, and his two wives also, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite.  And David brought up the men who were with him, every man with his household. So they dwelt in the cities of Hebron. Then the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, “The men of Jabesh Gilead were the ones who buried Saul.” 2 Samuel 1-4

There was a lot of civil unrest after this as Abner the commander of King Saul’s army made Saul’s son Ishbosheth king over several other tribes:  But Abner the son of Ner, commander of Saul’s army, took Ishbosheth the son of Saul and brought him over to Mahanaim; and he made him king over Gilead, over the Ashurites, over Jezreel, over Ephraim, over Benjamin, and over all Israel. Ishbosheth, Saul’s son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. Only the house of Judah followed David.  And the time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months. 2 Samuel 2:8-11

Then there was a long war between the house of Saul and David: Now there was a long war between the house of Saul and the house of David. But David grew stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul grew weaker and weaker.² Sons were born to David in Hebron…2 Samuel 3:1-2

In the meantime Abner, the commander, had become the power behind Saul’s weak son Ishbosheth: Now it was so, while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner was strengthening his hold on the house of Saul. 2 Samuel 3.6

This had become very similar to the current situation today in America. The leader of the country (Biden/Ishbosheth) had become so weak other powers took control from them leading the nation to failure.

Abner had a falling out with King Ishbosheth over a woman/concubine and decided he would entreat David and work out a way for David to become king over all of Israel:  Then Abner became very angry at the words of Ishbosheth, and said, “Am I a dog’s head that belongs to Judah? Today I show loyalty to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman? May God do so to Abner, and more also, if I do not do for David as the Lord has sworn to him— to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul, and set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan to Beersheba.”         2 Samuel 3.8-10

Abner began working his plan to give the entire nation over to David’s reign: Then Abner sent messengers on his behalf to David, saying, “Whose is the land?” saying also, “Make your covenant with me, and indeed my hand shall be with you to bring all Israel to you.” 2 Samuel 3.8

Negotiations continued:  Now Abner had communicated with the elders of Israel, saying, “In time past you were seeking for David to be king over you. Now then, do it! For the Lord has spoken of David, saying, ‘By the hand of My servant David, I will save My people Israel from the hand of the Philistines and the hand of all their enemies.” Abner also spoke in the hearing of Benjamin. Then Abner also went to speak in the hearing of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel and the whole house of Benjamin.

So Abner and twenty men with him came to David at Hebron. And David made a feast for Abner and the men who were with him. Then Abner said to David, “I will arise and go, and gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may reign over all that your heart desires.” So David sent Abner away, and he went in peace. 2 Samuel 3.17-21

Long story short, David became anointed King over all Israel: Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and spoke, saying, “Indeed we are your bone and your flesh. Also, in time past, when Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them in; and the Lord said to you, ‘You shall shepherd My people Israel, and be ruler over Israel.”  Therefore all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and King David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the Lord. And they anointed David king over Israel. David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years. In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

The beauty of this story is that David waited for the tribes of Israel to come to him. He did not attempt to take the Kingship from Saul’s son Ishbosheth, but he waited for the people to wake up to the fact that he was God’s chosen King. He was chosen by the Tribe of Judah and ruled 7 years before the rest of the tribes came to him.

God worked it out through human events, and yes, political intrigue. David only waited for the promise of God to become reality. He waited for the people and he did all things lawfully once they came to him.

We have been waiting for justice in our corrupt system for many generations. The 2020 stolen election woke the nation up to what is happening in our nation. President Trump did not grab or try to steal the Presidency back. He waited and let events play out. He exposed the corrupt swamp politicians and now the people will speak. We may still experience some very distressing times right up ahead but I believe God is going to WIN and the wicked politicians and fake news and corporations will be exposed. Pray for our country. Our future depends on it. Don’t lose hope!

 

EZEKIEL 34 IS A MESSAGE TO AMERICA – THE SHAKING IS NEAR!

Ezekiel was a powerful prophet to Judah and the captives in Babylon. His wife was the “desire of his eyes” when she died (Ezek 24.15-17) during the siege of Jerusalem. He was commanded not to grieve at her death as Judah was about to grieve for the destruction of Jerusalem. His message to the nation came out of his grief. The message to the Shepherds in chapter 34 is a prophecy to America in this day!

This short post is not advocating violence in anyway shape or form. Those who love America are working according to the US Constitution and the law. Those who hate America have been burning buildings and creating violent situations. The Patriots are working through the courts to expose the socialist crimes which have been perpetrated on the American people.

God Himself is going to expose those who have hated America and wish to divide us. He will work through the law as He always does. He is the Supreme judge of the nations. He will expose them through the coming crisis.

 

And the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel, prophesy and say unto the pastors, Thus hath the Lord GOD said; Woe unto the shepherds of Israel that feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the flocks? Ye eat the milk, and ye clothe yourselves with the wool, ye kill those that are fat; but ye do not feed the flock.

Ye have not strengthened the weak, neither have ye healed that which was sick, neither have ye bound up that which was broken, neither have ye brought again that which was driven away, neither have ye sought that which was lost; but with force and with cruelty ye have ruled them; and they are dispersed because there is no shepherd; and they became food to all the beasts of the field, and they were scattered.

My sheep were lost and wandered through all the mountains and upon every high hill; my flock was dispersed upon all the face of the earth, and there was no one to search for them or to require anything of them. 34.1-6

Does this not describe the corrupt politicians and system currently reigning over Washington, DC? They care nothing about the people but have enriched themselves and are demanding we follow their godless programs which are designed to divide America, not bring her together.

They have enriched themselves by creating money out of nothing and stealing all they can through legislation. Most of the money goes into their pockets—not the programs.

Therefore, ye shepherds, hear the word of the LORD; as I live, said the Lord GOD, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became food to every beast of the field, without a pastor, neither did my shepherds search for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves and did not feed my flock; therefore, O ye pastors, hear the word of the LORD.

Thus hath the Lord GOD said: Behold, I am against the shepherds; and I will require my flock at their hand and cause them to cease from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any longer; for I will deliver my flock from their mouth, and they shall no longer be food for them. For thus hath the Lord GOD said: Behold, I, even I, will both search and recognize my sheep. 34.9-11

Our Elohim is going to shake the entire American swamp to its very core! He sees the wickedness and immorality these politicians are trying to force down the throat of God fearing and loving Americans. He has heard our prayers and soon justice is going to flow.

Even many Pastors of churches are buying into the immoral godless culture. The Methodist Denomination now accepts non binary as gender option: https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/06/29/methodist-church-non-binary-gender/

The Shepherds no longer follow God’s Law’s on gender as there are only two—male and female—anything else is not a true gender. They no longer respect God’s commands or laws. Now they want to force their godlessness on us!

Think about this. The LGBT agenda and abortion are the issues driving American policy! Truly a sad state of affairs. The majority of Americans are not in agreement with this but our politicians pander to those who support these issues.

All Americans have equal rights. One group following an ungodly lifestyle should not receive special treatment. For instance transgender individuals who are genetically men should not be allowed to compete in women’s or girls sports. This is common sense! One law for all citizens. This too is scriptural. Everyone should be obeying just laws. God has given the world His Torah but the nations refuse to obey God’s laws.

As the shepherd recognizes his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered, so will I recognize my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day. And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and will bring them to their own land and feed them upon the mountains of Israel by the rivers and in all the habitations of the country.

I will feed them in good pastures and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be; there they shall sleep in a good fold, and in fat pastures they shall be fed upon the mountains of Israel. I will feed my flock, and I will cause them to have a fold, saith the Lord GOD. I will seek that which was lost and bring again that which was driven away and will bind up that which was broken and will strengthen that which was sick but I will destroy the fat and the strong; I will feed them in judgment.

This word in Ezekiel’s day was for those who had kept their faith in their Elohim. They had been taken along with the wicked into captivity—but their Shepherd, God Almighty was promising to see to their needs.

This is why I believe Yahweh is going to shake America like never before. All of the wicked politicians who have been lying and stealing from the people are going to be judged by Yahweh. The truth about their corruption and theft is currently being exposed to the nation. Covid fraud, election fraud, witch hunts, and lies.

The fake media and deep state will fight with all their might to cover up their deeds BUT God is going to move in a powerful and unusual way to expose them and bring them to justice. We need to be praying and supporting those who are working to expose the truth to the nation. We must lift our voices in prayer and quiet repentance as God is going to move in a powerful way like we haven’t yet seen. The nation is going to shake out those who have been oppressing the flock.

Therefore thus hath the Lord GOD said unto them; Behold, I, even I, will judge between the fat sheep and between the lean sheep, because ye have thrust with side and with shoulder and pushed all the weak with your horns until ye have scattered them outside. I will save my flock, and they shall no longer be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep…And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, said the Lord GOD. 34.20-22; 31

This ancient prophecy was about God saving those who trusted in Him even though terrible events were happening all around them. Jerusalem and the temple were being burned to the ground and many would be taken into captivity in Babylon. God promised them they would return to the land. The good were taken into captivity along with the wicked but the good prospered in captivity.

God will shake out the swamp and answer our prayers. Reform is coming to our political system and many will be convicted of the crimes they have committed against humanity. The light of truth is going to shine.

 Thus shall they know that I the LORD their God am with them and that they, even the house of Israel, are my people, said the Lord GOD. And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, said the Lord GOD. 34.30-31
