Symbolism of the Great Sign

Leave a comment

Let them give glory to the LORD, And declare His praise in the coastlands. The LORD shall go forth like a mighty man; He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war. He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud; He shall prevail against His enemies. (Isa. 42:12, 13)

Lift up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in. (Ps. 24:9b)

Revelation 12 is the last warning sign of the approaching Day of the Lord and the perfect storm that is coming with it. It signifies the actualization of Christ’s special expectations for His church. As I discussed in the previous chapter, the imminent Day of the Lord will be accompanied by a battle between two armies, both of which God will allow to be fought. The destructive army will be characterized by the wrath and judgement on the wickedness of people who refused to repent of their ways and accept the only God, Jesus Christ: “Do homage to the Son, that He not become angry, and you perish in the way, For His wrath may soon be kindled. How blessed are all who take refuge in Him!” (Ps. 2:12, NASB) The second army will prepare the way in praise and obedience to Him. They will open the gates and allow Him to come with glory, because He is the King of Glory and expects to come as such: “Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, The LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O you gates! Lift up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of glory”  (Ps. 24:7-10).

I strongly believe that the second army will have a great number of women. At least, God will use women to wake up the rest. Their main job is to stay on their knees in prayer. This will cause God to move into the midst of His Church. Thus, through His Church, He will glorify Himself in the last hours. Before we go into detail on the task of this glorious second army, we will unmask the symbolism of Revelation 12:

A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of 12 stars on her head. She was pregnant and cried out in labor and agony as she was about to give birth. Then another sign appeared in heaven: There was a great fiery red dragon having seven heads and 10 horns, and on his heads were seven diadems. His tail swept away a third of the stars in heaven and hurled them to the earth. And the dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she did give birth he might devour her child. But she gave birth to a Son—a male who is going to shepherd all nations with an iron scepter—and her child was caught up to God and to His throne. (Rev. 12:1–5, HCSB)

  • A great sign appeared in heaven: This is an actual sign in heaven with the physical heavenly bodies and constellations. This sign also carries symbolism that conveys a spiritual message for Jewish people and the Church. (I describe the activity of those bodies in chapter one.)
  • A woman . . . with a crown of 12 stars on her head: The woman represents the nation of Israel, because she has a crown of twelve stars to represent the twelve tribes and in particular the tribe of Judah or a lion (Gen. 49:8–10). This crown is shaped like a lion. The Church is included as well. It believes in Jewish Messiah, Jesus Christ and His Scriptures.
  • Clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet: The sun represents birth or enlightenment of the woman. The moon represents night or great trials. Both are primarily related to the woman. Thus, it suggests that the Jewish nation and the Church will endure great tribulation, which will birth a certain positive outcome.
  • She was pregnant and cried out in labor and agony to give birth: The trials will bring worth the rebirth of the Church or revival, where many Jewish people will accept Christ as their Messiah, and the Church will purify its garments.
  • But she gave birth to a Son—a male who is going to shepherd all nations with an iron scepter: “Son” represents the Church or the body of Christ. The tribulation of Jewish people and the Church will bring rebirth or revival to the Church. God always did everything related to Him through His people, the Jews. The Holy Bible was written through them to bless whole humanity. The Law was given through them in order to set God’s moral ethics for humanity. Covenants were made between God and them. Jesus, the Savior came from them. The early church was made out of them first. The final global revival will not be without them. Their blessings come directly to the gentiles. We are blessed through the seed of Abraham, Jesus Christ. We must pray for their revival in order to get our revival.
  • Her child was caught up to God and to His throne: “Child” represents the Church, which is body of Christ. The revived Church will be caught up or raptured to be with God. This Church will be made up of Jews and people out of all nations.
  • Then another sign appeared in heaven: There was a great fiery red dragon having seven heads and 10 horns, and on his heads were seven diadems. His tail swept away a third of the stars in heaven and hurled them to the earth: The second sign will be within the physical bodies of heaven and holds a spiritual message for us. A political system will rise and persecute the reborn Church, both Jews and Gentiles.
  • And the dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she did give birth he might devour her child: During the revival and the rebirth of the Church, the political system will try to crush the Church through severe persecution. At this time, the Rapture will happen.

Let’s simplify things: Shortly after September 23, 2017, will be a great hardship and possible persecution of Jewish people and the Church all over the world. God will allow these trials to bring revival to His beloved descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and the Church. Through this persecution, they will accept their Messiah, Yeshua Hamashiach. Many people will accept Christ as their Savior. The world and the Church will witness miracles that have never been seen before. The name of Jesus Christ will be revered above any name. Many physical and spiritual strongholds will melt at the mention of His name. All these things will be possible because of God’s people filling their prayer cups for the world and their family members, relatives, neighbors, church, city, state, and country. At the peak of the revival, satan will raise a political system to crush the wave of the Holy Spirit’s movement throughout the land. The new, powerful Church will experience an intense persecution, but only for a short time. Sometime during the persecution, the Rapture will take place. The Feast of the Trumpets stands for the Rapture: “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Cor. 15:52).

After the Rapture, the antichrist will come into power for 3.5 years. He will go after God’s remaining people, the Jews who didn’t accept Jesus and Christians who were not raptured due to not being ready (Rev. 12:6–17). During these 3.5 years, people will see the other half of Revelation, which follows chapter 12. The rest of Revelation mostly describes the events that will take place after the Church is caught up. Those will be times of the great Tribulation. Left behind people will witness: the antichrist (Rev. 13); the trampling of the holy city and prophesying of the two witnesses (Rev. 11:1–14); the boils of wrath for serving the beast (Rev. 16); the judgement of the Babylon (Rev. 17, 18); the battle of Armageddon – the Feast of Atonement (Rev. 14:14–20; 19:11–21; Zech. 14:1–4); and the blowing of the seventh angel with his trumpet – the Feast of Tabernacles (Rev. 11:15–19).

Great Sign of a Woman

1 Comment

A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, a crown of 12 stars on her head. She was pregnant and cried out in labor and agony as she was about to give birth. (Rev. 12:1–2, HCSB)

In our journey through the Holy Bible, we see God’s conversation with humanity from the first verse of the Old Testament to the last verse of the New Testament. Our Lord did not leave His people without guidance. He taught them to listen to Him through His written Word and then through His signs. God even created the sun, moon, and stars to speak to us about Him and His plans and warnings: “Then God said, ‘Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years’” (Gen. 1:14).

God always warns His people of the things He plans to do: “If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid? If there is calamity in a city, will not the LORD have done it? Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets” (Am. 3:6–7). If we are careful enough in our scriptural studies about the Lord’s second return to Earth, we will find that the Lord has provided many signs and warnings we can recognize and use to prepare for this grand finale.

The wise men or astronomers, upon studying the heavens and the stars, found an unusual sign from heaven and understood its meaning: “Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, ‘Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship him’” (Matt. 2:1–2). Thus, they came to Jerusalem and made it known to Herod who, in turn, asked the biblical scholars of that day. The appearance of the star signified, “The King is born”! In this way, the sign of the first coming of the promised Messiah was revealed to the Jewish nation. Only the wise men recognized the significance of this heavenly sign. The biblical scholars of those days seemed to be indifferent to the occasion. As we can see, it is not enough to just read and know the Scriptures. We must study them and pay attention to what they tell us. The Jewish scholars knew their writings; nevertheless, they missed the Messiah’s first coming.

The same star appeared at the time of the last blood moon of the tetrad on September 23, 2015, which was exactly two years before September 2017. It also appeared when God promised Abraham that he would have descendants like sand. Three appearances of the Bethlehem star two thousand years apart! Therefore, we should pay attention to what might come after the star’s last appearance. The next significant occurrence was the Revelation 12 signs of heaven.

In the manner of the Messiah’s first coming, we see a pattern in the second coming of Christ. He has given us a special sign in heaven, which is recognizable to modern astronomers. They tell us that once in six thousand years, a special occurrence took place within the heavenly bodies. This event, the great sign in heaven, is recorded prophetically by the Apostle John in Revelation 12.

This sign took place on September 23, 2017: “A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of 12 stars on her head. She was pregnant and cried out in labor and agony to give birth” (Rev. 12:1–2, HCSB). It is as important as the wise men’s star at Jesus’ birth, which signified the birth of the Messiah. It came right after the Feast of Trumpets, which took place within a month after the total solar eclipse, which cut the US in half. The sign of the woman and the special solar eclipse of 2017 announce Christ’s imminent second return and the completion of the three fall feasts: the Feast of the Trumpets (the Rapture), the Feast of Atonement (battle of Armageddon), and the Feast of the Tabernacles (beginning of the Lord’s millennial reign).

Many biblical scholars were puzzled by the Revelation 12 sign of the woman in heaven. Now we can understand it, as we have seen it come to pass. It is a sign in heaven that illustrates the activity of heavenly physical bodies. The woman is a constellation of a virgin. Twelve stars made her crown in the form of a lion. The moon was under her feet. The sun stayed in her background and clothed her. Jupiter, the king planet, circled her abdominal area within a nine-month period and exited her at the time of this sign occurrence as she gave birth to the king planet, Jupiter. It was “a great sign in heaven” indeed! The sign of the woman in heaven is none other than the cry of ‘the ten virgins’ parable: “And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!” (Matt. 25:6) Are we ready to meet the Groom? Are we all wise virgins? Jesus warned us that some people will not be ready.

After the sign of the woman, chapter 12 continues with a second sign. The actual physical bodies (which are stars, constellations, and planets) will be involved again:

Then another sign appeared in heaven: There was a great fiery red dragon having seven heads and 10 horns, and on his heads were seven diadems. His tail swept away a third of the stars in heaven and hurled them to the earth. And the dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she did give birth he might devour her child. But she gave birth to a Son—a male who is going to shepherd all nations with an iron scepter—and her child was caught up to God and to His throne. (Rev. 12:3–5, HCSB)

The two signs of the woman and the dragon are full of symbolism and significance. They carry extremely important messages. I will go into detail on the symbolism and what we can do to prepare a little later in this book.

Chapter 12 is in the middle of the book of Revelation. It means that most of the written events in Revelation have already transpired right before our eyes. Jesus’ first coming occurred before the eyes of many people, including the ones who were knowledgeable of the Hebrew Scriptures. Nevertheless, those who had to accept Him first failed to recognize His visitation. As we know, history repeats itself. Let’s learn from them and heed the Lord’s warnings through Scripture and signs. We need to get ready, for most of the elements of the prophecies concerning the last days are already complete. We are literally seconds from witnessing the Lord’s return!

In the book of Joel, we see more clues and signs of the approaching Day of the Lord: “And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: Blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD” (Joel 2:30–31). We have already witnessed the unfolding of these in many ways. It is a mixture of Revelation 8 and 9 and Joel 2:2–10. Joel 2:31 came to completion in the recent tetrad or the set of four blood moons, which happened on the four Jewish holidays, and the super moon on November 14, 2016. The first tetrad moon showed up in the spring of 2014, on Passover, and the fourth was seen on September of 2015, on the Lord’s Feast of Tabernacles. These occurrences are special and rare and fit perfectly with all the other signs that happened and are happening around the world. Also, they complement the Scriptures, which point to our days as the days right before the great second coming of the Messiah, Jesus Christ. Combining the books of Joel and Revelation, we see we are dangerously out of time. These moons are God’s way of warning that the end is near.

Lord’s Feasts (Part 2)

Leave a comment

The fall feasts are yet to come. These feasts are about to happen in the near future. The theme of these feasts is as such: Blow and take hid of the trumpet, purify yourself and be ready, for the Lord’s Day is at hand!

  1. Feast of Trumpets (Lev. 23:24): Rapture! “Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed—in the moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 15:51–52). Jewish people celebrate this holiday for two to three days. They have morning and evening services, during which they blow a trumpet, or a shofar, several times per service. The Rapture will happen at the last of these trumpets, during this feast. The final trumpet will be determined by God.

Application: We are to blow a trumpet by letting others know of the imminent return of Christ and pay attention to the sound of the shofar by preparing to meet Him (Joel 2:1, 15). The Lord warned us that, at a time we are not expecting, He will come. We live during the days when the Rapture can occur at any time. For we live in a fragile vessel, which is subject to be broken in the time we least expect. It is wise to be ready all the time, because every soul may experience the last trumpet at a time it is not expecting. We live at times when calamities will be increasing and taking the lives of many.

  1. Feast of Atonement (Lev. 23:27): The Messiah’s second coming! “And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives, Which faces Jerusalem on the east. And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, From east to west, Making a very large valley; Half of the mountain shall move toward the north And half of it toward the south” (Zech. 14:4). This feast will come to completion at the time of the battle of Armageddon (Rev. 14:18 –20; 19:11–21; Zech. 14:1–6; 12:10–14). I believe the Church will be coming with Jesus in the host of saints (Zech. 14:5) and witnessing the spiritual battle of Jesus and the Beast. It means the Rapture will take place sometime prior to the Battle of Armageddon. During the feast of Atonement, Jewish people abstain from water and all food as a fast for at least twenty-five hours. They don’t bath, comb their hair, brush their teeth, or wear any makeup until the fast is over. This way they demonstrate their sackcloth state of repentance and humbleness before God. They lament, repent, and confess their trespasses (Joel 2:12–15). They also dress up in white clothes for their synagogue service to symbolize the purity of an angel, a saint, or a bride as she prepares for the groom (Joel 2:16).

Application: The Feast of Atonement reminds us to prepare our robes pure and white as snow for the Lord’s wedding by analyzing our life in the light of Scripture and correcting our standing through confession, repentance, and watchfulness. It calls for serious examination through prayer and fasting. We must call out to God to prepare us for His return and the Rapture and also deliver us from hardships that will be ever increasing upon the earth from this time forth (Joel 2:17).

7.  Feast of Tabernacles (Lev. 23:34): The Messiah’s millennial reign or the Day of the Lord (Zech. 14:6–21)! “The seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying: The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Messiah, and He will reign forever and ever!” (Rev. 11:15, HCSB) Jesus, His Bride, and the remnant of Israel will reign for one thousand years. After the millennium, the Church will continue into eternity with the Lord. Earth and all the works on it will burn, and the final judgement will take place (Rev. 20–22). At this feast, the Jewish people make tents to symbolize the entrance and the acceptance into the kingdom of God, or Heaven. Think of the parable of the ten virgins. Five unwise virgins were left behind the doors and didn’t enter the presence of the Groom (Mt. 25:1–13).

Application: Our readiness and faithfulness will determine where we will be at the time of the Lord’s reign on Earth and eternity. One must be raptured or, if left behind, persevere in faithfulness and abstain from the mark of the Beast. People who are left behind at the Rapture will endure the last and great tribulation. God will purge the land right after the battle of Armageddon. People whose names are written in the Book of Life have the guarantee of eternal heaven (Rev. 20:15).

According to the order of the Lord’s feasts, the Rapture is the next huge event that will happen in the history of the Church and humankind. It is wise from now on to be ready for the Rapture. I couldn’t find any proof of the Pre-Tribulation Rapture, because we have already lived through most of the Tribulation. Half of Revelation has already come to pass. The six angels have blown their trumpets. Also, Revelation 12:1–5 suggests the Rapture is at hand: “And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne” (Rev. 12:5, KJV) “Her child” symbolizes Jesus’ Church and Bride, which is His body, and it will be caught up to God’s throne or raptured!

I also find that our current president, Donald Trump, is endowed with a unique name for these days. The Feast of Trumpets and the Rapture go hand in hand. The president’s name is one more way to remind us to be ready, because the trump of the Rapture is approaching fast: “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord” (1 Thess. 4:16–17, KJV). “In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed” (1 Cor. 15:52, KJV).

By bringing up the name of President Trump, I am not promoting or condoning his position as president. I only suggest that the president of such a powerful country as the United States has the name “Trump,” as if used by God as one more way to show His people around the world the approaching perfect storm and climax of the last few days before the return of our Lord, Jesus Christ. The USA is a country that doesn’t escape any nation’s news or spotlight.

Lord’s Feasts (Part 1)

Leave a comment

And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ‘The feasts of the LORD, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are My feasts.’” (Lev. 23:1–2)

We need to pay attention to the Lord’s feasts and even celebrate them in the light of the New Testament, for they signify events that are directly related to us. These seven feasts are represented as the seven lamp lampstand: “. . . there is a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps. Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left” (Zech. 4:2b–3).

Jesus is the base on whom the lampstand is standing. Through Him and by God’s Spirit, these feasts will come to pass: “For behold, I am bringing forth My Servant the BRANCH.” (Zech. 3:8c) and “‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the LORD of hosts” (Zech. 4:6b). The two olive trees represent the two witnesses from Revelation 11: “These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands standing before the God of the earth” (Rev. 11:4). I believe these witnesses are coming sometime after the “great sign in heaven of a woman” in Revelation 12. It is also possible that the 42 months (Rev. 11:2) of their witness will overlap with the 1,260 days of the woman’s time in the wilderness (Rev. 12:6) and 42 months of the Beast (Rev. 13:5).

Let’s go through all the Lord’s feasts quickly to better understand how the Lord communicates through them and why it is important to pay attention to them. Jesus completed the first of three feasts in one Jewish month in the spring and within one week. They enable those who believe in Him to stay clear of sin through His blood and wait for His glorious return to be resurrected into wonderful new life with Him in eternity. These are the three spring feasts:

  1. Passover (Lev. 23:5): “The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (Jn. 1:29) Jesus is the perfect Lamb of God, whose blood is holy and powerful enough to redeem us from the power of sin and satan.

Application: Jesus’ blood was spilled for the forgiveness of our sins, removing our curses, healing our bodies, and rebirthing our dead spirits (born-again experience). We are to drink wine, which symbolizes His blood, to remember His suffering and what He has done for us. We no longer need to bring animal sacrifices to wash away our sins. Instead, when we repent, His blood washes away our sins.

  1. Feast of Unleavened Bread (Lev. 23:6–8): “And Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst’” (Jn. 6:35). Jesus was free of sin and a living sacrifice, suitable before the Lord to be pierced for our transgressions.

Application: Jesus is the unleavened bread. As His disciples, we are to be free of sin and flee from it. When we fall into sin because of our fallen nature, we have the blood of Jesus to cleanse us, if we repent and confess our sins to Him (1 Jn. 1:8–10). We are to eat unleavened bread as His body at communion: “Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” (1 Cor. 5:6b–8).

  1. Feast of Firstfruits (Lev. 23:10): “But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep” (1 15:20). In the Father’s eyes, Jesus is the first among His brothers and sisters (which is His Church, saved and adopted by His blood) to be resurrected into life. Those who believe in Him will be resurrected with Him (1 Cor. 15:51–52).

Application: We need to put Jesus and serving God first in our lives. All other preoccupations should come next; otherwise, they will take the place of God and become our idols.

The summer feast is completed through Jesus, who promised the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

  1. Feast of Pentecost (Lev. 23:15): “When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance” (Acts 2:1–4). This feast was possible only because of Jesus’ sacrifice. The Holy Spirit can dwell in us through His blood, which purifies us.

Application: Jesus Christ is with us through the Holy Spirit: “I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you” (Jn. 14:18). The Holy Spirit has enabled people to write the New Testament Scriptures, spread the gospel for two thousand years, and lead multitudes to salvation. The evidence of an indwelling Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues, as demonstrated in the Day of the Pentecost. This is the summer and the perfect time to get saved, serve the Lord, and bring Him much fruit.

The Sound of Marching

Leave a comment

Mark, the evangelist, leaves us the following account:

Now John answered Him, saying, “Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow us.” But Jesus said, “Do not forbid him, for no one who works a miracle in My name can soon afterward speak evil of Me. For he who is not against us is on our side. For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.” (Mk. 9:38–41)

As Christian women, we need to have unity with each other. We do not need to agree on everything, nor do we need to pull each other from one church or denomination to another. Jesus’ name is enough for us to respect and agree with each other. The body of Christ is made up of people from all nations and all denominations. He seeks those who are obedient to His Word and who conform themselves to His likeness. There is much work to be done and many souls to be saved. This goal should be enough to unite us.

We can bear much fruit when we pray together: “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them” (Matt. 18:19–20). If every woman is faithful in her walk and prays for the things God shows her and what I listed in the beginning of this chapter, the results will be astounding in each home, church, and city. If each woman follows the expectations of the Lord’s army (as outlined in this chapter), the outcome will be revolutionary. If we could see through God’s eyes, it would look like the entire planet is covered in little light bulbs that are connected together in a golden net.

When we put our prayers on the altar, God will gather what we have prepared for Him. It will be His doing. Where we can’t, He can do the rest. It will be like with David:

Therefore David inquired of the LORD, and He said, “You shall not go up; circle around behind them, and come upon them in front of the mulberry trees. And it shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of mulberry trees, then you shall advance quickly. For then the LORD will go out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.” And David did so, as the LORD commanded him; and he drove back the Philistines from Geba as far as Gezer. (2 Sam. 5:23–25)

Power of the Locusts

Leave a comment

The locusts have no king, yet they all advance in ranks.

Why does God make an example of these insects here? Aren’t they creatures of destruction and a sure sign of God’s wrath and judgment? What does the Lord want us to learn from them? A locust is like a grasshopper. When it is alone, it is insignificant and causes no concern. However, when those insects gather into a group, they become extremely powerful. We can learn two things from locusts: unity and patience: Locusts gather in unity and wait for the wind. They act in the principle of unity: “Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken” (Eccl. 4:12). Together, they are like a plague when the wind picks them up and drops them on a field to graze. They cannot fly long distances. They fly in the direction of the wind. Just like locusts, we need to gather in unity around the same cause. Each woman, in her own home, should pray and fill her cup on behalf of herself, her children, her husband, her relatives, and everyone else for whom God gives her a burden. She may also pray for repentance of her city, state, and country.

We already learned that we have little time left. The next event will be the Rapture. Most of us are not ready for an early or a postponed rapture. It is possible that most of us are going to face persecution. It is going to get worse here on Earth, for the birth pains are only increasing as the day draws closer. Our many loved ones, including our children and husbands, are not ready either. We are in a devastating condition, and only God can help us overcome what is ahead and prepare us for the Rapture. This is exactly where women come into play in the following verses:

The LORD raises His voice in the presence of His army. His camp is very large; Those who carry out His command are powerful. Indeed, the Day of the LORD is terrible and dreadful – who can endure it? (Joel 2:11, HCSB)

The Lord gives the command; The women who proclaim the good tidings are a great host: ‘Kings of armies flee, they flee, And she who remains at home will divide the spoil! When you lie down among the sheepfolds, You are like the wings of a dove covered with silver, And its pinions with glistening gold. When the Almighty scattered the kings there, It was snowing in Zalmon. (Ps 68:11–14, NASB)

Before the Lord sends His fire on our alters, a sacrifice must be present. “Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood and the stones and the dust, and it licked up the water that was in the trench” (1 Kings 18:38). God commands women to cry out to Him in fasting, prayer, and repentance:

“Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm. Who knows if He will turn and relent, And leave a blessing behind Him—A grain offering and a drink offering For the LORD your God? Blow the trumpet in Zion, Consecrate a fast, Call a sacred assembly; Gather the people, Sanctify the congregation, Assemble the elders, Gather the children and nursing babes; Let the bridegroom go out from his chamber, And the bride from her dressing room. (Joel 2:12–16)

Also, it is time to bring forth the petitions and prayers before the Lord for our loved ones and our children. Once the cups are full and the sacrifices of our prayers are on the altar, He will come and move. Jesus will do what we can’t. He will refresh us and save us and our loved ones. We can’t, but He can. We are weak, but He is strong. God is waiting for the sacrifice from our hands!

Honor Your Father and Mother

Leave a comment

Honor your father and your mother . . . (Deut. 5:16a)

“Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: ‘that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.’ And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord” (Eph. 6:2–4). God is aware of parents and children. Children need instruction on how to obey and respect their parents. Parents are a God-given authority over their children and must raise them and instruct them in many things. This will prepare them for life and mold them into useful members of society and children of God.

The law of parental authority can heal or curse the land. Malachi prophesied, “Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. And he will turn The hearts of the fathers to the children, And the hearts of the children to their fathers, Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse” (Mal. 4:5–6). Later, John the Baptist came prior to the first visitation of the Lord and prepared the nation for Jesus.

Now the Earth is awaiting the second coming of Jesus or “the Day of the Lord.” We are also in need of the law of parental authority coming into the right standing, just as the Jewish nation needed during Jesus’ first coming. Obedience in this area heals and removes a curse from a family and then a nation.

Unleavened Bread

Leave a comment

Feast of Unleavened Bread (Lev. 23:6–8): “And Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst’” (Jn. 6:35). Jesus was free of sin and a living sacrifice, suitable before the Lord to be pierced for our transgressions.

Application: Jesus is the unleavened bread. As His disciples, we are to be free of sin and flee from it. When we fall into sin because of our fallen nature, we have the blood of Jesus to cleanse us, if we repent and confess our sins to Him (1 Jn. 1:8–10). We are to eat unleavened bread as His body at communion: “Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth” (1 Cor. 5:6b–8).

Feast of Firstfruits

Leave a comment

Feast of Firstfruits (Lev. 23:10): “But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep” (1 Cor. 15:20). In the Father’s eyes, Jesus is the first among His brothers and sisters (which is His Church, saved and adopted by His blood) to be resurrected into life. Those who believe in Him will be resurrected with Him (1 Cor. 15:51–52).

Application: We need to put Jesus and serving God first in our lives. All other preoccupations should come next; otherwise, they will take the place of God and become our idols.

Passover

Leave a comment

Passover (Lev. 23:5): “The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (Jn. 1:29) Jesus is the perfect Lamb of God, whose blood is holy and powerful enough to redeem us from the power of sin and satan.

Application: Jesus’ blood was spilled for the forgiveness of our sins, removing our curses, healing our bodies, and rebirthing our dead spirits (born-again experience). We are to drink wine at church communion, which symbolizes His blood, to remember His suffering and what He has done for us. We no longer need to bring animal sacrifices to wash away our sins. Instead, when we repent, His blood washes away our sins.
