30 December 2023 – 2 January 2024
And you, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto you shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.
The above-mentioned “dominion” is from the sixteen times used Hebrew word memshalah. Its first uses describe the sun and the moon created to “rule” the day and night. As we know, these are church and state governments in times of light and darkness: the church, when understanding covers the earth, and, when this light is absent, the state when (in its many phases) ignorance does. Both of these institutions were initially created to shine the LORD’s light upon the earth, ruling as he rules, with truth and justice, which is the American way (USA as Consituted to securing these God-given rights). As is evident to all not living in an altered state of reality, the light left (and with it the recognition of reality) the church first, and with this occurring, the moon waned into (now) total darkness.
The “first dominion” of Daniel 7 is that spoken of in the previous post. In the context of the above description, the same is described in Psalms 136:8 & 9. The foretelling of the death and resurrection of the same (just dominion) also appears in other passages below.
Psalms 136
1 O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endures forever.
2 O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endures forever.
3 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endures forever.
4 To him who alone does great wonders: for his mercy endures forever.
5 To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endures forever.
6 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endures forever.
7 To him that made great lights: for his mercy endures forever:
8 The sun [His ONE BODY] to rule [memshalah] by day [when those who’ve received His understanding, shine from the church as His light into heaven’s darkness: to be seen as guiding light even for the ignorant]: for his mercy endures forever:
9 The moon [civil government, like Jericho, whose wall of false interpretation separating them from God’s presence, falls as His people follow His commands and open their mouths bringing it down] and stars [His people with His light, shinning as lights in the firmament, with this same exposition] to rule [memshalah] by night [the ignorant who choose to reject and refuse to abide His perfect law of liberty]: for his mercy endures forever.
10 To him that smote Egypt [the evil oppressors] in their firstborn [the leaders among them, in the pattern of the sons of perdition]: for his mercy endures forever:
11 And brought out Israel [the people of His promise] from among them: for his mercy endures forever:
12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm [this same word now before the eyes of the world]: for his mercy endures forever.
13 To him which divided the Red [cuwph – papyrus, the written word handed down] sea [yam – the roaring of its wave, the false interpretation, men’s never ending opinions of meaning in the law of church and state – these word {cuwph yam} speaking of what now culminates in the extreme lawfare between right and left] into parts [dividing humanity into two distinct sides]: for his mercy endures forever:
14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it [with Him here in the middle moving toward the promised land: earth]: for his mercy endures forever:
15 But overthrew Pharaoh [the great house – all the evil misleaders, tyrants, throughout history] and his host [the army of misleaders who’ve, with intention, in power to deceive, corrupted all truth and justice] in the Red sea [by misleading in the degeneration of true interpretation, into insanity, by their evil decrees; rulings]: for his mercy endures forever.
16 To him which led his people through the wilderness [now when a state of nature exists, when all is lawless]: for his mercy endures forever.
17 To him which smote great kings [those in power, now seen as dead men peeping and muttering out ways and ideas that have led all the world into death and hell]: for his mercy endures forever:
18 And slew famous kings: for his mercy endures forever:
19 Sihon [warriors] king of the Amorites [whose words were exalted above God’s word and His truth]: for his mercy endures forever:
20 And Og [making themselves as giants to those they rule by their evil] the king of Bashan [who prospered by their evil devices]: for his mercy endures forever:
21 And gave their land [‘erets – the earth they’ve ruled into ruin] for a heritage [the inheritance of those who receive His mercy, which is His presence manifested in the conversation here at His mercy seat]: for his mercy endures forever [‘owlam – throughout all eternity, Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever]:
22 Even a heritage unto Israel [the earth to be inherited by the meek, the people of His promise] his servant [doing His good will as He commands]: for his mercy endures forever.
23 Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endures forever:
24 And has redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endures forever.
25 Who gives food [this understanding that strengthens the lowly] to all flesh: for his mercy endures forever.
26 O give thanks unto the God of heaven [who alone gives us understanding, by which He reveals His glory to, through, and in us]: for his mercy endures forever.
The above speaks of the thousands standing in the LORD’s presence, receiving His mercy, as in Daniel 7:10, speaking of his (Daniel’s, those understanding God’s judgment) understanding the correct interpretation, saying “A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him [speaking His word], and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books [that were sealed until this time] were opened.”
Exodus 20
1 And God spoke all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord your God, which have brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
3 You shall have no other gods [men putting themselves in my place] before me.
4 You shall not [by presuming] make unto you any graven image [false interpretations], or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.
5 You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting [paqad – coming as the Chief Overseer of the earth, uncovering] the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;
6 And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
7 You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain [saying I said when I haven’t]; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day [when I interrupt your work to correct you back onto the right course], to keep it holy.
Isaiah 22
1 The burden of the valley of vision [this word by which the lowly see as I see]. What ails you now, that you are wholly gone up to the housetops [to escape the necessary conflict at hand]?
2 You that are full of stirs, a tumultuous city, joyous city: your slain men are not slain with the sword, nor dead in battle [but as cowards running from the battle].
3 All your rulers are fled together, they are bound by the archers [the false accusations of the enemies]: all that are found in you are bound together [by their fear of the wicked in power], which have fled from far [rachowq – from the evil decrees that rule this time].
4 Therefore said I, Look away from me; I will weep bitterly, labor not to comfort me, because of the spoiling of the daughter of my people.
5 For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord God [the King of kings and LORD of lords] of hosts [a man of war] in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls [which hold back this word and keep My people from seeing My presence in My work], and of crying to the mountains [the LORD’s call to open your mouths against the wicked in power in every institution of government in church and state].
6 And Elam bare the quiver [all who’ve lived throughout all eternity] with chariots of men and horsemen, and Kir [the wall, the lies and falsehood, interpretations’ effect that keeps wicked men in power and the world in ignorance] uncovered the shield [magen – the LORD with us as the buckler of the earth].
7 And it shall come to pass, that your choicest valleys [the low places in which the LORD reveals Himself] shall be full of chariots, and the horsemen shall set themselves in array at the gate [out of hell into heaven, from darkness and death into light and life].
8 And he discovered [galah – revealed in this apocalypse] the covering [macak – removing the veil and showing My prersence to My elect remnant] of Judah, and you did look in that day to the armor [nasheq – revealing these weapons of My warfare] of the house of the forest [to the upright who’ve become My family by receiving me].
9 You have seen also the breaches of the city of David [My people scattered from their king], that they are many: and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool [this word sent to the lowly].
10 And you have numbered the [understood the many] houses of [old and corrupt] Jerusalem, and the houses have you broken down to fortify the wall [keeping back this word and not giving it a commanded].
11 You made also a ditch between the two walls [lie and falsehood, agreement with death and hell, under which your leaders think they hide themselves] for the water of the old pool [keeping My written word held in your channels of ignorance]: but you have not looked unto the maker thereof [who inspired it], neither had respect unto him that fashioned it long ago [rachowq – to be revealed in this time when the earth is ruled by evil decree].
12 And in that day did the Lord God of hosts [the King of kings and LORD of lords, who is a man of war] call to weeping, and to mourning, and to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth [when these things are revealed]:
13 And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die [going willingly, without opposition, into your own destruction, which is obviously coming to the sluggards who sleep on, refusing to believe this is that day, the light, of the LORD].
14 And it was revealed in my ears by the Lord of hosts, Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till you die, says the Lord God of hosts.
15 Thus says the Lord God of hosts, Go, get you unto this treasurer [cakan – those to whom this word was entrusted], even unto Shebna [who’ve prospered by their control], which is over the house, and say,
16 What have you here? and whom have you here, that you have hewed you out a sepulcher here [where you store the dead], as he that hewn him out a sepulcher on high, and that graven a habitation for himself in a rock [from where My word should flow, but instead it is held back and replaced with men’s creations]?
17 Behold, the Lord will carry you away with a mighty captivity, and will surely cover you [‘atah – with your own confusion; see Psalms 109:29, saying “Let my adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover {‘atah} themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.”].
18 He will surely violently turn and toss you like a ball into a large country [rachab ‘erets – a confused earth]: there shall you die, and there the chariots of your glory shall be the shame of your lord’s house [the men you follow as gods you’ve exalted above Me].
19 And I will drive you from your station, and from your state shall he pull you down.
20 And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim [God raised, to be establishes {from quwm}] the son of Hilkiah [whose inheritance is Jehovah]:
21 And I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your girdle [this cover and preparation is contrasted against the other time ‘atah appears in Psalms 109, in verse 19, speaking of the wicked, anointed {of Satan} devils, who are cut off from the earth, saying, “19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covers {‘atah} him, and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually. 20 Let this be the reward of my adversaries {satan} from the Lord, and of them that speak evil against my soul.”], and I will commit your government [memshalah – governments of church and state] into his [my] hand: and he [the LORD in me} shall be a Father to the inhabitants of [New Heavenly] Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah [the elect remnant that receive me in the name of the LORD]. [Matthew 23:39 For I say unto you, You shall not see me from here forward, until you shall say, Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord.]
22 And the key [that opens the door] of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open.
23 And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father’s house.
24 And they shall hang [the understanding of all the law and the prophets] upon him all the glory of his father’s house, the offspring and the issue [all those born by coming into His light], all [the holy] vessels of small quantity, from the [holy] vessels of cups, even to all the [holy] vessels of flagons.
25 In that day, says the Lord of hosts, shall the nail [upon which hangs the corrupt understanding of all the law and prophets] that is fastened in the sure [in which all trust] place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off: for the Lord has spoken it.
Friends, the matter, the controversy as we know it, is a lack of subordination to the power God has raised. It (rebellion, in which all worldly powers are now engaged, as dogs barking in the night, this time when ignorance covers the earth, against God’s government in church and state) is the topic of Psalms 109 (& 110), and what the LORD speaks of in Matthew 23.
Matthew 23
31 Wherefore you be witnesses unto [against] yourselves, that you are the children of them which killed the prophets.
32 Fill you up then the measure of your fathers.
33 You serpents [whose poison, which rots the minds of men, is in your mouths], you generation of vipers, how can you escape the damnation of hell [the result of your own cursing come upon you]?
34 Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them you shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall you scourge in your synagogues [all your gathering places, where truth and justice should be administered], and persecute them from city to city:
35 That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel [speaking of all in who the spirit of Cain is manifested, who kill their brothers, “Because his {Cain’s} own works were evil, and his brother’s righteous.”] unto the blood of Zacharias [all these righteous men, who the LORD now brings to remembrance] son of Barachias [who are the blessed of Jehovah], whom you slew between the temple and the altar [offering them as your evil sacrifice]. [Isaiah 66: 3 …Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delight in their abominations. 4 I also will choose their delusions {their insanity they can’t differentiate from reality}, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before my eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.]
36 Truly I say unto you, All these things shall [have now] come upon this generation.
37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you that kill the prophets, and stones them which are sent unto you, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and you would not!
38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
39 For I say unto you, You shall not see me henceforth, till you shall say, Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord.
Psalms 110
A Psalms of David
1 The LORD [Jehovah] said unto my LORD [‘adown – the king He will establish], Sit you at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool.
2 The LORD [Jehovah] shall send the rod of your strength out of Zion: rule you in the midst of your enemies [as I do, as commanded by the Higher power].
3 Your people shall be willing in the day of your power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning [this day now come]: you have the dew of your youth.
4 The LORD [Jehovah] has sworn, and will not repent, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek [the king of righteousness, and king of peace].
5 The LORD [‘Adonay – the King of kings] at your right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
6 He shall judge among the heathen, he shall fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the heads [ro’sh – those whose evil ideas and ways rule] over many countries [‘erets – over the earth].
7 He shall drink of the brook in the way [this word sent into this time, to be revealed, by which]: therefore, shall he lift up [ruwm – raise and exalt] the head [ro’sh – His righteous ideas and way].
Psalms 109
1 Hold not your peace, O God of my praise;
2 For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.
3 They compassed me about also with words of hatred; and fought against me without a cause.
4 For my love they are my adversaries: but I give myself unto prayer [conversing with the LORD who’s given me understanding of the matter].
5 And they have rewarded me evil for good, and hatred for my love.
6 Set you a wicked man over him: and let Satan stand at his right hand [as the spirit inspiriting them].
7 When he shall be judged, let him be condemned: and let his prayer [unto the gods, idols men created and put in my place, which they deceitfully call by My name] become sin.
8 Let his days be few; and let another take his office [pquddah – as the overseers, watchmen, of the earth].
9 Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow [the insane who speak and work their evil].
10 Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg: let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.
11 Let the extortioner [who steal their inheritance from them] catch all that he has; and let the strangers spoil his labor.
12 Let there be none to extend mercy unto him: neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.
13 Let his posterity be cut off; and in the generation following let their name be blotted out [cut off from the earth].
14 Let the iniquity of his fathers [whose knowledge is to do evil to his brothers] be remembered with the Lord; and let not the sin of his mother [their teachers who teach them wisdom is to speak and work evil] be blotted out.
15 Let them be before the Lord continually, that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.
16 Because that he remembered not to show mercy, but persecuted the poor and needy man, that he might even slay the broken in heart [who their evil ways made desolate].
17 As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him.
18 As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment, so let it come into his bowels like water, and like oil into his bones.
19 Let it be unto him as the garment which covers [‘atah] him, and for a girdle [preparation] wherewith he is girded continually.
20 Let this be the reward of my adversaries [satan – the reward to those who attack and accuse me] from the Lord, and of them that speak evil against my soul.
21 But do you for me, O God the Lord, for your name’s sake [in which you have sent me]: because your mercy [in our conversation at Your mercy seat] is good, deliver you me.
22 For I am poor and needy [without worldly power], and my heart is wounded within me.
23 I am gone like the shadow when it declines [as Your sun rises, showing Your glory]: I am tossed up and down as the locust [by the same winds destroying the destroyers].
24 My knees are weak through fasting [Your people remain week through refusing Your word as Yours]; and my flesh [of Your dead body] fails of fatness [because they refuse to prosper by these treasures You’ve sent them].
25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shake their heads [refusing me].
26 Help me, O Lord my God [King of kings and LORD of lords]: O save me according to your mercy:
27 That they may know that this is your hand; that you, Lord, have done it.
28 Let them curse, but bless you: when they arise, let them be ashamed; but let your servant rejoice.
29 Let my adversaries be clothed with shame, and let them cover [‘atah] themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.
30 I will greatly praise the Lord with my mouth; yea, I will praise him among the multitude.
31 For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor, to save him from those that condemn his soul.
The following is the post from 13 January 2021, with today’s additions in double brackets.
The earthquakes – But in the last days [[‘achariyth]] it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains [[above all the governments of the earth]], and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it.
The word above, in Micah 4:1, rendered “established,” is kuwn, which we saw in the previous post, from Jeremiah 33:2. There it speaks of the LORD as the “maker” of the firmament, who “formed” the Spirit of life in man. In the following verse, the LORD urges us, “Call unto me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you know not.”
The word in the title verse rendered “last days” is ‘achariyth, meaning, “the last or end, hence, the future; also posterity.” As we’ve seen in other posts, it’s the word used, in Genesis 49:1, as Jacob gathered his children and told them what would befall them in the “last days.” It’s also the word used, in Daniel 12:8, when Daniel askes Gabriel (the man of God who is also the warrior of God, as is Timothy), What “shall be the end” of these things?
The title is speaking of these days, when the government of God is “established” above all the governments of the world, as is the purpose for which they’ve been prepared and provided. This is what Micah 4:8 calls the “first dominion,” from the Hebrew words ri’shown, meaning, “first, in place, time or rank,” and memshalah, meaning, “rule; also (concretely in plural) a realm or a ruler.” Before this, verse 7 says, “the LORD shall reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth, even forever.”
The secret of this occurring is found in searching, curiously exploring, the word rendered in the title verse “flow,” which tells of when and how God’s people enter His kingdom. It (“flow”) is from the six times used Hebrew word nahar, meaning, “to sparkle, i.e. (figuratively) be cheerful; hence (from the sheen of a running stream) to flow, i.e. (figuratively) assemble.”
Micah 5:3 tells us this time comes after the LORD has given us up (to follow our own ways and ideas), “until the time that she which travails has brought forth: then the remnant (Judah) of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel (God’s people at large). Earlier, in Micah 4:10 we’re told this is when we come out of confusion (Babylon), from where the LORD delivers us, when He redeems us (pays the price to correct us) from the hand of our enemies (the cause of the confusion now turned mass delusion, which rules and controls all the world).
These events are described from different but unquestionably similar perspectives in the other five chapter where the word nahar is used, and this same dominion, kingdom, is established on earth forever and into it flow God’s children.
Colossians 1
9 For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that you might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding;
10 That you might walk worthy of the LORD unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;
12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which has made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13 Who has delivered us from the power of darkness, and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell;
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
21 And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now has he reconciled
22 In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblamable and unreprovable in his sight:
23 If you continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which you have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am [[I Timothy Am]] made a minister;
24 Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the church:
25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;
26 Even the mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
29 Whereunto I also labor, striving according to his working, which works in me mightily.
Ephesians 6
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the LORD, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
20 For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
Micah 4
1 But in the last days [[‘achariyth]] it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established [kuwn] in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow [nahar] unto it.
2 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.
3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off [[gowy rachowq – those who don’t know the LORD and rule the world by their evil decrees]]; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares [[to plant vineyards and groves of fig trees]], and their spears into pruning-hooks [[to harvest their fruit]]: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree [[planting and harvesting]]; and none shall make them afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken it.
5 For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.
6 In that day, says the LORD, will I assemble her that halts [was lame and wandered from the way], and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;
7 And I will make her that halted [was lame] a remnant, and her that was cast far off [[hala’ – wandered away]] a strong nation: and the LORD shall reign [[malak – by making war through wise counsel, ascend to the throne]] over them in mount Zion from henceforth, even forever.
8 And you, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, unto you shall it come, even the first dominion [ri’shown memshalah]; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Now why do you cry out aloud? is there no king in you? is your counselor perished? for pangs have taken you as a woman in travail [[to bring forth the king who is the counselor]].
10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth [Rachel, the teacher of all God’s people, who is their correction – the mother of Joseph {Ephraim, Israel at large} and Benjamin {Judah, the elect remnant}], O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shall you go forth out of the city, and you shall dwell in the field, and you shall go even to Babylon [confusion and ignorance]; there shall you be delivered [by correction]; there the LORD shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
11 Now also many nations are gathered against you, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.
12 But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither understand they his counsel: for he shall gather them as the sheaves into the floor.
13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs brass: and you shall beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain unto the LORD, and their substance unto the LORD of the whole earth.
Micah 5
1 Now gather yourself in troops, O daughter of troops: he has laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
2 But you, Bethlehem Ephratah [this house of bread, in this time of ruin], though you be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travails has brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.
5 And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian [the communists] shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces [[as has Obama, and now his idiot children, who bear his brand on {Brandon} their heads and hands, with Lucifer’s ideas and ways: as policy ruling by deception]], then shall we raise against him seven [[godly]] shepherds, and eight [[renewed in truth and justice]] principal men.
I tell you now, the world is shaking and the wicked will be shaken from it. Amen!
Hebrews 12
25 See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven:
26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he has promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
27 And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
Isaiah 2
2 And it shall come to pass in the last days [[‘achariyth]], that the mountain of the LORD’s house shall be established [kuwn] in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow [nahar] unto it.
3 And many people shall go and say, Come you, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from [[New Heavenly]] Jerusalem.
4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
5 O house of Jacob, come you, and let us walk in the light [[understanding]] of the LORD.
6 Therefore you have forsaken your people the house of Jacob, because they be replenished from the east [[filled with false understanding]], and are soothsayers like the Philistines [[are a covert army waring against Me]], and they please themselves in the children of strangers [[who they’ve raised to not know Me]].
7 Their land also is full of silver and gold, neither is there any end of their treasures; their land is also full of horses, neither is there any end of their chariots:
8 Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made:
9 And the mean man bows down [[to their idols, the strange ways with which they are filled]], and the great man humbles himself [[before their communist tyrants]]: therefore forgive them not.
10 Enter into the rock, and hide you in the dust, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty.
11 The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
12 For the day of the LORD of hosts shall be upon every one that is proud and lofty, and upon every one that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low:
13 And upon all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up, and upon all the oaks of Bashan [the upright of the flock],
14 And upon all the high mountains, and upon all the hills that are lifted up,
15 And upon every high tower, and upon every fenced wall,
16 And upon all the ships of Tarshish [the churches that have carried God’s people away from their vows], and upon all pleasant pictures [by all the images, idols, they’ve made to entice them].
17 And the loftiness of man shall be bowed down, and the haughtiness of men shall be made low: and the LORD alone shall be exalted in that day.
18 And the idols he shall utterly abolish.
19 And they shall go into the holes of the rocks, and into the caves of the earth, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake terribly the earth.
20 In that day a man shall cast his idols of silver, and his idols of gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats;
21 To go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the LORD, and for the glory of his majesty, when he arises to shake terribly the earth.
22 Cease you from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of?
Isaiah 3
1 For, behold, the LORD, the LORD of hosts, does take away from Jerusalem and from Judah the stay and the staff, the whole stay of bread, and the whole stay of water.
2 The mighty man, and the man of war, the judge, and the prophet, and the prudent, and the ancient,
3 The captain of fifty, and the honorable man, and the counsellor, and the cunning artificer, and the eloquent orator.
4 And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.
5 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbor: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honorable.
6 When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his father, saying, You have clothing, be you our ruler, and let this ruin be under your hand:
7 In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer; for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a ruler of the people.
8 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the eyes of his glory.
9 The show of their countenance does witness against them; and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
10 Say you to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward of his hands shall be given him.
12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead you cause you to err, and destroy the way of your paths.
13 The LORD stands up to plead, and stands to judge the people.
14 The LORD will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for you have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.
15 What mean you that you beat my people to pieces, and grind the faces of the poor? says the LORD God of hosts.
Isaiah 60
1 Arise, shine; for your light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon you.
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon you, and his glory shall be seen upon you.
3 And the Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.
4 Lift up your eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to you: your sons shall come from far, and your daughters shall be nursed at your side.
5 Then you shall see, and flow together [nahar] , and your heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto you, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto you.
6 The multitude of camels shall cover you, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall show forth the praises of the LORD.
7 All the flocks of Kedar [who’ve been in darkness] shall be gathered together unto you, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto you: they shall come up with acceptance on my altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.
8 Who are these that fly as a cloud [[with full understanding]], and as the doves to their windows [[seeing the signs of the end as they came]]?
9 Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish [those who fled from their vow] first, to bring your sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the LORD your God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he has glorified you.
10 And the sons of strangers shall build up your walls, and their kings shall minister unto you: for in my wrath I smote you, but in my favor have I had mercy on you.
11 Therefore your gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto you the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought.
12 For the nation and kingdom that will not serve you shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted.
13 The glory of Lebanon shall come unto you, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
14 The sons also of them that afflicted you shall come bending unto you; and all they that despised you shall bow themselves down at the soles of your feet; and they shall call you; The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through you, I will make you an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations.
16 You shall also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shall suck the breast of kings: and you shall know that I the LORD am your Savior and your Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
17 For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make your officers peace, and your exactors righteousness.
18 Violence shall no more be heard in your land, wasting nor destruction within your borders; but you shall call your walls Salvation [yshuw’ah – Jesus, Jehovah’s Salvation], and your gates Praise.
19 The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto you [understanding shall no longer come from church or state institutions]: but the LORD shall be unto you an everlasting light [understanding], and your God your glory.
20 Your sun shall no more go down; neither shall your moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be your everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended.
21 Your people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land forever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
22 A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in his time.
Jeremiah 31
10 Hear the word of the LORD, O you nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd does his flock.
11 For the LORD has redeemed Jacob, and ransomed [ga’al] him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.
12 Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together [nahar] to the goodness of the LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.
13 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.
14 And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, says the LORD.
15 Thus says the LORD; A voice was heard in Ramah [the city on the hill – from where the light will shine], lamentation, and bitter weeping; Rahel [Rachel – the teacher of God’s people, who is yet barren] weeping for her children refused to be comforted for her children, because they were not.
16 Thus says the LORD; Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears: for your work shall be rewarded, says the LORD; and they shall come again from the land of the enemy.
17 And there is hope in your end [‘achariyth], says the LORD, that your children shall come again to their own border.
18 I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; You have chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn you me, and I shall be turned; for you are the LORD my God.
19 Surely after that I was turned, I repented; and after that I was instructed, I smote upon my thigh: I was ashamed, yea, even confounded, because I did bear the reproach of my youth.
20 Is Ephraim my dear son? is he a pleasant child? for since I spoke against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, says the LORD.
21 Set you up waymarks, make you high heaps: set your heart toward the highway, even the way which you went: turn again, O virgin of Israel, turn again to these your cities.
22 How long will you go about, O you backsliding daughter? for the LORD has created a new thing in the earth, A woman shall compass a man.
23 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; As yet they shall use this speech in the land of Judah and in the cities thereof, when I shall bring again their captivity; The LORD bless you, O habitation of justice, and mountain of holiness.
24 And there shall dwell in Judah itself, and in all the cities thereof together, husbandmen, and they that go forth with flocks.
25 For I have satiated the weary soul, and I have replenished every sorrowful soul.
26 Upon this I awaked, and beheld; and my sleep was sweet unto me.
27 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of man, and with the seed of beast.
28 And it shall come to pass, that like as I have watched over them, to pluck up, and to break down, and to throw down, and to destroy, and to afflict; so will I watch over them, to build, and to plant, says the LORD.
29 In those days they shall say no more, The fathers have eaten a sour grape, and the children’s teeth are set on edge.
30 But every one shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eats the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge.
31 Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was a husband unto them, says the LORD:
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, says 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.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, says the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Jeremiah 51
12 Set up the standard [nec – the pole upon which Moses raised the brazen serpent, as the son of man must be lifted] upon the walls of Babylon, make the watch strong, set up the watchmen, prepare [kuwn – perfect] the ambushes: for the LORD has both devised and done that which he spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon.
13 O you that dwells upon many waters, abundant in treasures, your end is come, and the measure of your covetousness.
14 The LORD of hosts has sworn by himself, saying, Surely I will fill you with men, as with caterpillars; and they shall lift up a shout against you.
15 He has made the earth by his power, he has established [kuwn – perfected] the world by his wisdom, and has stretched out the heaven by his understanding.
16 When he utters his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens; and he causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth: he makes lightning with rain, and brings forth the wind out of his treasures. [These are speaking of when the LORD, as now, sends His word from heaven, and His Spirit moves upon them producing understanding. The following verse tells of the words of men as foundationless confusion in which there is no life-giving power.]
17 Every man is brutish by his knowledge; every founder is confounded by the graven image: for his molten image is falsehood, and there is no breath in them.
18 They are vanity [worthless], the work of errors: in the time of their visitation [[pquddah – now when He manifests His presence as the Chief Overseer of the earth]] they shall perish.
19 The portion of Jacob is not like them; for he is the former of all things: and Israel is the rod of his inheritance: the LORD of hosts [[a man of war]] is his name.
20 You are my battle axe and weapons of war: for with you will I break in pieces the nations, and with you will I destroy kingdoms;
21 And with you will I break in pieces the horse and his rider; and with you will I break in pieces the chariot and his rider;
22 With you also will I break in pieces man and woman; and with you will I break in pieces old and young; and with you will I break in pieces the young man and the maid;
23 I will also break in pieces with you the shepherd and his flock; and with you will I break in pieces the husbandman and his yoke of oxen; and with you will I break in pieces captains and rulers.
24 And I will render unto Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea [the confusion and those who use their worthless words to intentionally produce it] all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, says the LORD.
25 Behold, I am against you, O destroying mountain, says the LORD, which destroy all the earth: and I will stretch out my hand upon you, and roll you down from the rocks, and will make you a burnt mountain.
26 And they shall not take of you a stone for a corner, nor a stone for foundations; but you shall be desolate forever, says the LORD.
27 Set you up a standard [nec – raise up the brazen serpent, the son of man] in the land, blow the trumpet among the nations, prepare the nations against her, call together against her the kingdoms of Ararat [to reverse the curse], Minni [to this rightly divided word of God], and Ashchenaz [that shall be as fire scattered upon the land] appoint a captain against her; cause the horses to come up as the rough caterpillars.
28 Prepare against her the nations with the kings of the Medes [those of the middle land, with Cyrus, the LORD of the furnace], the captains thereof, and all the rulers thereof, and all the land of his dominion [memshalah].
29 And the land shall tremble and sorrow: for every purpose of the LORD shall be performed against Babylon [the confusion that rules the world], to make the land of Babylon a desolation without an inhabitant.
30 The mighty men of Babylon have forborn to fight, they have remained in their holds: their might has failed; they became as women: they have burned her dwelling-places; her bars are broken.
31 One post shall run to meet another, and one messenger to meet another, to show the king of Babylon that his city is taken at one end,
32 And that the passages are stopped, and the reeds they have burned with fire, and the men of war are affrighted.
33 For thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing-floor, it is time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.
34 Nebuchadrezzar [the false prophets {the fake news media and the fable making eschatologists} who use their lies to rule/control the masses into ignorance] the king of Babylon [the confusion that rule the world] has devoured me, he has crushed me, he has made me an empty vessel, he has swallowed [bala’ – as the whale swallowed Jonah, as Israel is swallowed in Hosea 8:7 & 8] me up like a dragon, he has filled his belly with my delicates, he has cast me out.
35 The violence done to me and to my flesh be upon Babylon, shall the inhabitant of Zion say; and my blood upon the inhabitants of Chaldea, shall Jerusalem say.
36 Therefore thus says the LORD; Behold, I will plead your cause, and take vengeance for you; and I will dry up her sea, and make her springs dry.
37 And Babylon shall become heaps, a dwelling-place for dragons, an astonishment, and a hissing, without an inhabitant.
38 They shall roar together like lions: they shall yell as lions’ whelps.
39 In their heat I will make their feasts, and I will make them drunken, that they may rejoice, and sleep a perpetual sleep, and not wake, says the LORD.
40 I will bring them down like lambs to the slaughter, like rams with he goats.
41 How is Sheshach [this tells of Babylon as a sixth part] taken! and how is the praise of the whole earth surprised! how is Babylon [the confusion that rules the world] become an astonishment among the nations!
42 The sea is come up upon Babylon: she is covered with the multitude of the waves thereof.
43 Her cities are a desolation, a dry land, and a wilderness, a land wherein no man dwells, neither does any son of man pass thereby.
44 And I will punish Bel [prominent men as idols] in Babylon, and I will bring forth out of his mouth that which he has swallowed up [As He brought Jonah from the belly of the whale – from the underlying cause, the lies of false prophets, agitating the sea] up: and the nations shall not flow together [nahar] any more unto him: yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall.
45 My people, go you out of the midst of her, and deliver you every man his soul from the fierce anger of the LORD.
46 And lest your heart faint, and you fear for the rumor [shmuw’ah – this report, sound doctrine that is as a foreign language to those who only know lies – referring us to Ezekiel 7:26, Isaiah 28:9 & 19, and 53:1] that shall be heard [[shama’ – obeyed]] in the land; a rumor [shmuw’ah] shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumor [shmuw’ah], and violence in the land [[chamac ‘erets – the same violence that covered the earth in the days of Noah]], ruler against ruler.
47 Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded [buwsh – disappointed and ashamed, because they don’t reach the end the false prophets have told them of], and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her.
48 Then the heaven and the earth, and all that is therein, shall sing for Babylon: for the spoilers shall come unto her from the north, says the LORD.
49 As Babylon has caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth.
50 You that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the LORD afar off [[rachowq – this time when the earth is ruled by evil decree: lies and insanity as policy]], and let Jerusalem come into your mind.
51 We are confounded [buwsh], because we have heard reproach: shame has covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the LORD’s house.
Psalms 34
1 I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked unto him, and were lightened [nahar – and were given understand that brought them to Him]: and their faces were not ashamed [and they saw Him face to face, which is the expected end].
6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles [[tsarah – tribulation]].
7 The angel of the LORD encamps round about them that fear him, and delivers them.
8 O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusts in him.
9 O fear the LORD, you his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good thing.
11 Come, you children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 What man is he that desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking guile [deception].
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
16 The face [[paniym – the manifested presence]] of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry, and the LORD hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles [[tsarah – their tribulation]].
18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saves such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
20 He keeps all his bones: not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 The LORD redeems the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
