Romans 12:1 (KJV)

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

Paul was saying to the Romans, “you must take the body, the Temple of the Holy Ghost, and allow God to Perform the Mercies of God, to an Generation of Wolves”

Luke 10:3 (KJV)

Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.

»Strong's Help aren, Greek 704, Strong's aren, ar-ane'; perhaps the same as Greek 730 (arrhen); a lamb (as a male) :- lamb.

»Strong's Help arrhen, Greek 730, Strong's arrhen, ar'-hrane; or arsen, ar'-sane; probably from Greek 142 (airo); male (as stronger for lifting) :- male, man.

»Strong's Help airo, Greek 142, Strong's airo, ah'ee-ro; a primary verb; to lift; by implication to take up or away; figurative to raise (the voice), keep in suspense (the mind); specially to sail away (i.e. weigh anchor); by Hebrew [compare Hebrew 5375 (nasa')] to expiate sin :- away with, bear (up), carry, lift up, loose, make to doubt, put away, remove, take (away, up).

One of the Sign’s that is to follow believers was to “Take Up Serpents”...Mark 16:18 (KJV)

They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

The meaning of taking up Serpents are as follow...

»Strong's Help ophis, Greek 3789, Strong's ophis, of'-is; probably from Greek 3700 (optanomai) (through the idea of sharpness of vision); a snake, figurative (as a type of sly cunning) an artful malicious person, especially Satan :- serpentIn.

We have Power that is given to us as believers.

Luke 10:19 (KJV)

Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Jesus came with Power...Matthew 28:18 (KJV)

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

All Power is given to Christ here.

This would include the Power that Satan and those that follow after his ways.

God said this in...Isaiah 10:5-7 (KJV)

O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation. [6] I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. [7] Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few.

Even Satan himself, is created for the purpose of God.

Romans 9:11 (KJV)

(For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)

So let us settle one thing here, that the purpose of God will be completed regardless of what our action are.

God has given us a Body, and that body is made from the earth.

From the earth there are made many different existences.

When God made Adam, he gave this commandant...Genesis 1:26 (KJV)

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Then when we go on further as time progresses we can learn another very interesting fact.

For this we will consider two Brothers...

Genesis 27:38 (KJV) And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? Bless me; even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.

Genesis 27:39-41 (KJV)

And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; [40] And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.

[41] And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob.

Now this is the Heart of the Actions that we today, that live for Christ, we are experiencing the same type of actions of those that have Sold Their Birthright.

In Selling the Birthright, this is what it means... “one looses his... “Heritage”. Or his inheritance.

I live near a couple of Bald Eagles, these eagles have taught me several things that are to be considered.

For one thing, they amaze me as to how persistence that they are, when it comes to surviving.

Since we have moved next to the place where they have their nest, and by the way, it is said that they will build Two Nest, one for the young to be born in and another for them to go to when they want to get away.

When the young are born, this is the most exciting time to be able to view the actions of how both the parents and the young survive.

Both of the Parents share in the responsibility of accomplishing the task.

The Female lays the Egg or the Eggs, it may be one or it can be more that one.

If there is more Eggs laid than which there is food for, then the stronger on of the nest will take from the weakest, and finally the weakest will be pushed our of the nest.

If there is plenty of Food, the parents are able to raise each and all to the time of their departure of the nest.

At this time, when it is time to fly, the young Eaglets will stand up on the side of the nest and begin to exercise their Wings.

This is how we refer to our young when they are coming to the age of maturity, we say that they are... “ just exercising their wings”.

It is Strange that, when they are at this stage, the Eaglets are larger that the Parents, they weigh more than the parents.

It is that way in the work of the Lord.

We can rise up children in the church, and as they become taught in the ways of the lord, they come to the state that they want to take part in leadership.

Satan wants to stop this, for he knows that the energy that the young adults have is, sometime, “Unstoppable”.

Satan wants to control, and place a yoke upon the Neck of those that are a threat to his ability to take Dominion.

Genesis 27:38-40 (KJV)

And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept. [39] And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; [40] And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.

This is what I want to reveal to the reader...

; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion,

This is the whole sum of what this life is about in the World.

Dominion, is what each, Both Humans and Beast, this is the ultimate goal of each, to see which can outdo, or rise above the other.

In a pack of Wolves, there is one that will take the Dominion of the Pack, and when he does the others are brought under his Dominion, for they have and failed to defeat his ability to achieve his position.

In order for the Pack to stay intact, there is the others that will summit to his role of leadership.

From there the whole Pact is able to accomplish the existence of each other.

It then is expected and this Leader, the one that has Dominion will make sure that the pack is safe, for it is also his Survival, that the pack does remain in tact.

In essence, this Leader of the pack of Wolves, places a Yoke upon them.

I suppose if we could communicate with the others of the Pact, they would share the fact that they would rather not have this one over them, but since they were not able to rise above this leader, they summit themselves and jus wait until their existence ceases to exist.

Does this sound familiar, when we go into the House of God and we see those that are the ... “Elite Ones”... those that take the leadership in the Church, how that the existence of the Church, or the Organization, survives and continues on as it does.

In most cases, the ones that are exercising their leadership, these are like the Leader of the Pack of Wolves.

They are the Wolves in some or many cases.

Jesus said the he sends his follower, those that are of the Seed of Promise, into, and among the Wolves.

Luke 10:3 (KJV) Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.

Ezekiel 22:18 (KJV)

Son of man, the house of Israel is to me become dross: all they are brass, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace; they are even the dross of silver.

This is the Prophecy of those that stood there in the robes of Self Righteousness, when Jesus came to his own...“He came to his own”.

His own received him not...John 1:11 (KJV)

He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

How many times has Christ Came into the house of god, through a humble soul, or that we could say, “A Sacrificial Lamb”, someone that God wants to Spread into the Church, a ray of Light, a Blessing, and that person is not able to become a blessing.

On the other hand that person is subjected to those that is in control of the Services and has to present himself or herself as a living Sacrifice.

Jus what is it that this Living Sacrifice, means?.

Romans 8:16-28 (KJV)

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: [17] And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

[18] For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. [19] For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. [20] For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, [21] Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. [22] For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. [23] And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. [24] For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? [25] But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. [26] Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. [27] And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. [28] And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

I put in here these verses, several of them, for to remind us that as we are considered as Creatures,... “ For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope“,

We are sometime brought into a situation, and this can be many times as we walk the paths of obedience, we are reminded that we are the Lambs, the Sacrifices, that we are sent “Among The Wolves”.

Jesus sent first of All, his followers to the --- “House of the Israel”---Matthew 10:5-6 (KJV)

These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: [6] But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Why would he say such a thing to these that are to become the Sacrificial Lambs of that place?.

This is my opinion as to what he is doing here.

Sometime we are led by the spirit into a place of Worship, knowing very well that those that are in control of the Church, the ones that take the Dominion, who love the upper seats...Deut. 24:6 (KJV)

No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he taketh a man's life to pledge.

nether ...»Strong's Help recheh, Hebrew 7347, Strong's recheh, ray-kheh'; from an unused root meaning to pulverize; a mill-stone :- mill (stone).

»Strong's Help rekeb, Hebrew 7393, Strong's rekeb, reh'-keb; from Hebrew 7392 (rakab); a vehicle; by implication a team; by extensive cavalry; by analogy a rider, i.e. the upper millstone :- chariot, (upper) millstone, multitude [from the margin], wagon.

What he is saying here is that those that like to take the Millstone, that which is used to crush, these take the authority to themselves to make everyone else subjected, and to come under their command, or they allow only what is acceptable in their eyes, or minds, to continue in the Church, or as the Wolves, they allow only those that will summit themselves to their authority and rule, they allow them to feel protected by their dominion.

A millstone is, and if for the purpose of Crushing the Grain, into, what is to be of use, and when it is crushed into small parts, it then can be use to make a substance that will be of value to ones survival...Romans 8:28 (KJV)

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

This is where we, sometimes are made subject to those that take the position of that of a millstone, those that are like the millstone, they are continuing Crushing the Grain, and as we would look at the millstone, we could say... “Thank God for the Millstone”...2 Cor. 12:9 (KJV)

And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Just as the Millstone is Crushing, those that stand in the higher seats of authority, they are like those that ... “Only Look at the Millstone”.

They sit at the table, and eat of the Grain that is Crushed, not considering that the Grain is the most valuable substance.

But what about the Millstone?, “they would ask”... yes the millstone plays a part in processing the grain, but the Millstone when it is grounded and grounded, it is mere a millstone, and for certain, it will never go onto the Table and be eaten of those that are to be blessed with the substance of the Grain.

The millstone prepared the Grain, but the Grain went into the Stomach of the children and nourished the children and made them strong enough to survive.

This is what is said about, “Sending you among the wolves”

You might be made very Small, but remember the grain is digestive, the millstone is not digestive, it is only a tool, or an instrument, or a Rod....

Rod....»Strong's Help shebet, Hebrew 7626, Strong's shebet, shay'-bet; from an unused root probably meaning to branch off; a scion, i.e. (literal) a stick (for punishing, writing, fighting, ruling, walking, etc.) or (figurative) a clan :- x correction, dart, rod, sceptre, staff, tribe.

So when you are placed into, or between the Millstone, remember that the Son of God himself, he was place into the Millstone of the world, and the Rod, those that loved to excoriate...This means to...

criticize

attack

berate

condemn

haul over the coals

upbraid

take to task

So, for this we learn, how they, the “Wolves” will behave.

We take out of the context the word... berate, which means to...

rebuke,

tell off,

shout at,

speak angrily to,

criticize,

slate,

scold,

Matthew 10:16 (KJV)

Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

Now we can see What Satan is and his works is.

Satan wants more that anything to be like god...Isaiah 14:14 (KJV)

I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.

clouds...»Strong's Help `ab, Hebrew 5645, Strong's `ab, awb; (masculine and feminine), from Hebrew 5743 (`uwb) properly an envelope, i.e. darkness (or density, 2 Chron. 4:17); specifically a (scud) cloud; also a copse :- clay, (thick) cloud, x thick, thicket. Compare Hebrew 5672 (`abiy).

scud)...this means something that is dark, or covered, by, or indicating that is used to cover up something, to destroy, with great impact.

Just a scud Missile, if not detected and destroyed, it can become very destructive.

This is what that Jesus told them to be... “Wise as Serpent’s”...

A Serpent, or a Poisonous Serpent can strike anytime that it chooses and inject a venom into your veins, this poison, can take you down and render you very useless for a time.

Just as a Snake bite, God has provided an Antidote.

This antidote, when applied, and must be applied very quick, or otherwise it will not be of any remedy, as it is applied, it drives our the poison, and usually there is a setback in ones body, and it take time to heal.

This is what happen when we, as Sacrificial Lambs, when we become foolish and ram into, or push ourselves into the path of Satan, as though we have the ability to take him on by our efforts.

Let me say this... “ We, you are no match for Satan, without God in your lives, just as the Serpent, when he strikes you and injects Poison into your system...John 5:31 (KJV)

If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.

John 14:10 (KJV)

Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

As Jesus placed himself among the Wolves, those that were standing in the Temple, that temple that looked, from a distance, to have looked great, he was only to find, like the fig tree...Judges 9:10-11 (KJV)

And the trees said to the fig tree, Come thou, and reign over us. [11] But the fig tree said unto them, Should I forsake my sweetness, and my good fruit, and go to be promoted over the trees?

When we get so desperate, we become like those Wolves in the pact, we yield, rather that fight, we summit to the authority of those that will lead us to the Millstone, and then we are crushed into fine powder.

At this point we become very weak, we begin to think in ourselves that God has allowed us to be beaten down, and has forsaken us.

Jus as the Grain that falls off of the millstone, we then become ready to be used of the Master...2 Cor. 12:10 (KJV)

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Paul is saying here, that when he is placed into the Millstone, and falling from the Stone into a vessel, that when mixed with the right ingredients, he then can become of use.

Matthew 7:15 (KJV)

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Acts 20:29 (KJV)

For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

Deut. 24:6 (KJV)

No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he taketh a man's life to pledge.

Again, if we take the Millstone away, then how would we be able to eat of the grain, and if your Pledge is the Millstone, then when you pledge the millstone, then you have taken the ability of the stone to crush the grain into small particles.

At that time there is no grain to sustain.

That would be like the Farmer that sold his implements, he would not be able to provide, or raise that which is considered to be bounty.

A farmer could pledge his equipment, or could consider the farming equipment as the most important part of his life, yet the life that comes from the earth is what is digested, is what sustains, that which is the part that keeps the living in existence.

The Gift then would be taken away, and then we could not survive.

The Gift of life, was given on the Cross, just as they thought they would pledge the Millstone...Rev. 18:21 (KJV)

The city of Babylon, this city was noted for great accomplishments, but most of, if not all of the accomplishments, these were that of the ability of the powers of the flesh.

Isaiah 10:13 (KJV)

For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man:

This is like unto a man that has removed a landmark.

A landmark if for a sign, to guide someone that cannot find their way.

This is what Satan has done with the Grace of God.

At the Cross, there hang the Son of God, there Satan was allowed to remove a Landmark...Matthew 21:37-44 (KJV)

But last of all he sent unto them his son, saying, They will reverence my son. [38] But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance. [39] And they caught him, and cast him out of the vineyard, and slew him. [40] When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? [41] They say unto him, He will miserably destroy those wicked men, and will let out his vineyard unto other husbandmen, which shall render him the fruits in their seasons. [42] Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvellous in our eyes? [43] Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof. [44] And whosoever shall fall on this stone shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.

Some have believed this is the United States, and I can say that this is true in one sense, but we must realize that the Nation, is not speaking of a country, this is a nation of believers.

This Nation is what the lord was speaking about when he said to Abram, these words...

Genesis 12:1-2 (KJV)

Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee: [2] And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

This is a nation, not of Flesh, but a Spiritual Nation.

This Nation is comprised of the Kingdom of God.

And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

This Great Millstone, that was cast into the Sea, this Sea is the multitudes of people, and nations and tongues...Rev. 17:15 (KJV)

And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

The Whore, that person, that claims to be married to Christ, and commits, or allows Satan to rule their existence, this person is the Wolves that stand in the Congregations.

Lament. 1:10 (KJV)

The adversary hath spread out his hand upon all her pleasant things: for she hath seen that the heathen entered into her sanctuary, whom thou didst command that they should not enter into thy congregation.

Most think of this Harlot, as a prostitute, and this is just what it is.

Those that have Prostituted themselves, or have made an agreement with Hell, God has disannulled that agreement...Isaiah 28:18 (KJV)

And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.

This is referred to as the Curse...Jeremiah 17:5 (KJV)

Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.

Flesh, is the Habitation of what is described as no good thing...Romans 7:18 (KJV)

For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.

Flesh, when dominated by the deeds of Evil, will invite Satan to come into it and become the residence of Eight Evil Sprits...Luke 11:24 (KJV)

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came out.

Sadly, this is what is happening to many whom have heard the word, the voice of God, who has endured for a short while, but have allowed the cares of this world to choke out the word...Matthew 13:22 (KJV)

He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

Let me say to you, you that cannot seem to find anymore reason to serve Christ, these great experiences that brought you to the place that you desired to be a child of god, yet you seem to be distracted because you have lost confidence in those around you, especially those that stand in the house of god and proclaim that they are saints, when you know that their lives doesn’t measure up to that of the bible.

These will distract you from the purpose of God, that is that, you cannot look, trust in the arm of flesh.

As long as Flesh is in the forefront, you will never be able to mature into what you are to be according to the lord.

As long as you follow Signs, and Wonders, not that these are of no value, but these are for the purpose to let you know that God is still working in the Flesh, his spirit is there, but this is not what will take you across the great divide.

As long as Satan can manifest himself in the flesh, he then can become, or set himself in the Seat of God.

Ezekiel 28:2 (KJV)

Son of man, say unto the prince of Tyrus, Thus saith the Lord God; Because thine heart is lifted up, and thou hast said, I am a God, I sit in the seat of God, in the midst of the seas; yet thou art a man, and not God, though thou set thine heart as the heart of God:

Just who is the Wolves?... these are men and women who love to hold onto the Dominion, and like the Wolf Pack, they have allowed the Stronger of the pack to outdo them and they bow down in humility under the wrong leadership.

We can boast in how great we are and how low and little we make everyone else, but remember the world of Paul...2 Cor. 12:10 (KJV)

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

What Paul is saying, is to rejoice in the times when those wolves are belittling you, trying to make you less inferior.

Christ allowed himself to be made lower than the Angels...Hebrews 2:9 (KJV)

But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.

You and I, when we are made the low, then is when we are crowned...John 17:5 (KJV)

And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.

While he was in the Body of this existence, he made of himself of no reputation...Philip. 2:7 (KJV)

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

Here is how he was Crowned and Glorified...Isaiah 53:3 (KJV)

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

By being in the mist of Wolves, he opened not his mouth....Isaiah 53:7 (KJV)

He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.

Isaiah 60:14 (KJV)

The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The city of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

Christ looked beyond the Shame and Pain, he looked beyond the Wolves and those that Cried...John 19:15 (KJV)

But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

Is the Church as we know it, are they making the Caesar, the Politicians their king, just to get what they want?

The spirit spoke to me and said, “ It will be the same when I come back, as it was when I left”.

In other words, they were and had made an agreement with hell, they had placed the Herod’s in the upper seats.

Caesar had become their Trust and Deliverer.

He endured the Shame for the Hope that was set before him...Hebrews 12:2 (KJV)

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

At that Darkest Hour, during the Three Hours, the earth turned black, the sun did not shine...Joel 2:1-17 (KJV)

Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand; [2] A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations. [3] A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them. [4] The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run. [5] Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array. [6] Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness. [7] They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks: [8] Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded. [9] They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief. [10] The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining: [11] And the Lord shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it? [12] Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: [13] And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. [14] Who knoweth if he will return and repent, and leave a blessing behind him; even a meat offering and a drink offering unto the Lord your God?

[15] Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly: [16] Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet. [17] Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?

Let us go to the Hours of Darkness, that house that the earth turned dark...Exodus 10:21-23 (KJV)

And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt. [22] And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days: [23] They saw not one another, neither rose any from his place for three days: but all the children of Israel had light in their dwellings.

Here is the Type of Christ, the living Word of Life, that gives light, that Darkness comprehended it not...Genesis 1:3-8 (KJV)

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. [4] And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. [5] And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

[6] And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. [7] And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. [8] And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

Here is the first Promise of God that, Jesus Christ would again, come into and to the Hours of Darkness, when all hope had seemed to be lost...Acts 27:20 (KJV)

And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.

we can see this messianic prophecy throughout the entire Bible, that the day of the Lord was to come, and shall come.

Even when Moses, the type of Christ, as he stretched fort his Rod, the earth became Dark Place.

This is the releasing of those that make up the Nation of God, that new Nation that was to be made of Moses, yet Moses stood between Man and God’s Wrath...Exodus 32:32 (KJV)

Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.

Thank God for a man like Moses, and yet, the more, Thank God for the man that Moses was Referring to, this is no other that the Son of God, that one that hang there on that Tree, when the earth turned Dark for Three Hours...Matthew 27:45 (KJV)

Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.

This Darkness represented the Sins of the World, and that which Satan, through the ability of the Flesh, whom had allowed the Beast to come into the Heart to dwell.

Man had come to the Day of the Lord, just as Joel had said, this Hours of darkness that hang on mankind had come to the point that God was to again raise up that which would be a Living Soul...Genesis 2:7 (KJV)

And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

God was looking through his Son Jesus Christ and had placed himself in the same as all mankind had been placed.

Mankind had been driven out of the presence of the Lord...Exodus 6:1 (KJV)

Then the Lord said unto Moses, Now shalt thou see what I will do to Pharaoh: for with a strong hand shall he let them go, and with a strong hand shall he drive them out of his land.

His land, Satan’s Land that he had processed, the land of the Heart of mankind, this is what Pharaoh represented, this Egypt is the Flesh that holds us in Captivity as long as we live on this earth.

As God, through this Moses, Stretched out his Rod, that day on the Cross, God once stretched out his Hand of Mercy and stayed the Plague.

God stopped the Day of the Lord, with this Christ, and Like Moses, Christ stood between God’s Judgment on all mankind, there he took on himself the Curse of the Flesh, and Cried out with a Spine Chilling Cry...Matthew 27:46 (KJV)

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

There was a Choice to be made.

Jesus had been given all power in heaven...Matthew 28:18 (KJV)

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

Now that Power stood in Awe, as this Power was laid aside, as the Son of God, the very God that had made all things, this Power changed from that of Great Power that had healed the sick and opened the blinded eyes.

This Power was a different type of Power.

How is this Power different? One might ask.

This Power is the greatest power that one cans posses.

This Power, is the Power of all Powers.

To describe this Power would be hard for the average man to be able to comprehend.

This was the Main Switch, this switch is to turn on a Light, that Promise of God there in the Beginning...Genesis 1:3 (KJV)

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

Just as the earth had become Dark and Void, here is once again mankind standing without hope, the Law cannot and could not deliver mankind.

Great men of Old that looked for the Hope that was Set before them, these could not take part in this Power of Deliverance...Matthew 17:3 (KJV)

And, Behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

These were the Two Witness that stood before the Lord...Zech. 4:14 (KJV)

TheN said he, These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth.

God has from the very beginning given witness to each Promise that he has made to mankind.

Jesus Cried ....Matthew 27:46 (KJV)

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

We might say that this Darkness was so great, in one sense that God himself thought as mankind thinks, that he, God had forsaken himself.

Jesus was weighted down with the full cup of Indignation, that cup that is to be drinked of at the Day of the Lord, that he himself, hanging there with the Crown of Thorns, instead of the Crown of Glory, he had been allowed to Taste Death, not just for himself, but God the Father tasted of the Darkness that Satan had issued to mankind.

God was to do one more Miracle, this miracle would not be like the other miracles, that of healing and opening the blinded eyes, that is to say, pertaining to the flesh.

This Miracle was the Miracle of all Miracles.

There is a saying that goes like this> “When things get Tough, the Tough get Going”.

God spoke this Miracle there in Geneses...Genesis 1:3 (KJV)

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

As those that Stood by, and felt the Darkness Hover over them, most would say that they looked upon him, but if the earth was Dark for these Three Hours, those that stood by could not see Jesus hanging there for that three hours.

By the Way, Could this be the Darkness of the pain?.

Remember these words and let them sink down into your Hearts and seal them up tight in your Soul.

Jesus was experiencing your and mine, and all of the Dark experiences of that which Satan had placed upon all mankind.

Even he himself had to make the decision of all decisions, that is to Throw the Switch Back on and Make the Connection for mankind with the Father in Heaven.

This Light that was to light those Souls there could not be Turned on by stretching forth the fleshly Hands, this light could only be connected to the Power Source...Rev. 21:2-4 (KJV)

And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. [3] And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. [4] And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Here is, as I said, the Greatest Miracle of all Miracles.

“God Said”.

What did God say?...Luke 23:46 (KJV)

And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

Luke 23:44-46 (KJV)

And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. [45] And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst.

[46] And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.

Jesus Gave up his Power and handed it to the Father and this Power of the Holy Ghost went then to the Father and then was that Light that was promised...Deut. 4:31-40 (KJV)

(For the Lord thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them. [32] For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it? [33] Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live? [34] Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes? [35] Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the Lord he is God; there is none else beside him. [36] Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee: and upon earth he shewed thee his great fire; and thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire. [37] And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out in his sight with his mighty power out of Egypt; [38] To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day. [39] Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the Lord he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else. [40] Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, for ever.

You might say that this was to the Nation of Isral, and this is true, but you must remember that the Nation of Israel, this Nation that God wants for his own, this Nation is that Nation that was Born there in the beginning with Adam...1 Cor. 15:45 (KJV)

And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit.

That first Man was a living Soul, that was to be the forerunner of the replenishing of the New Heaven and the Earth...2 Peter 3:13 (KJV)

Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness.

This is the Promise...Rev. 21:5 (KJV)

And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

That Switch that was Tripped there on the Day of the Crucifixion, this light, in man’s eyes, was, as the prophet said...Zeph. 1:15 (KJV)

That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness,

To those that were standing at the foot of the Cross, they had their eyes, their physical eyes darkened for Three Hours, and for a time afterward their minds were confused and they were bewildered, but upon this Greatest Miracle, that Jesus did, “He Commended his Spirit into the hands of the Father” the Light came on to millions and millions before and those to follow even today we walk in that light.

My friend think of the Great Miracle, and that is the Miracle, that when things look bad, when your cannot See Christ, for the darkness, just as it was there at the cross.

then is when you need to look to the author and finisher of your faith...Hebrews 12:2 (KJV)

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Let that Miracle come into you Spirit, and when God seems to be nowhere around, remember the Great Light Switch.

When it looks like there is no hope... “Commend you Spirit into the Hands of the Father”.

This and this along, just as you had no control being born into this world, you have no control in leaving this world.

God must be in control at the Last Breath that you take, and he alone, if you will put your trust into his hands...Hebrews 13:5 (KJV)

Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

You have the Switch in you Possession...Matthew 16:19 (KJV)

And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Jesus Bound the enemy...John 19:30 (KJV)

When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

Yes, most think that they were looking at the Son of God, but the truth, those of the flesh, those that stood at the foot of the Cross, they that stood afar off...Mark 15:40 (KJV)

There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

I don’t think that we can conceive how this was there at the foot of the Cross.

Gross Darkness had covered their faces, and their eyes were blinded by this darkness and doubt had gripped them to the point that this Ciaos, that seem to be, was as if the end of Time had Come and I can imagine that they thought, even the ones that hanged him there, that, as Pharaoh, they thrust the Children of God, those that were held in bondage, just as it was in Egypt, they would have said...Genesis 40:9-14 (KJV)

And the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me; [10] And in the vine were three branches: and it was as though it budded, and her blossoms shot forth; and the clusters thereof brought forth ripe grapes: [11] And Pharaoh's cup was in my hand: and I took the grapes, and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand. [12] And Joseph said unto him, This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days: [13] Yet within three days shall Pharaoh lift up thine head, and restore thee unto thy place: and thou shalt deliver Pharaoh's cup into his hand, after the former manner when thou wast his butler. [14] But think on me when it shall be well with thee, and shew kindness, I pray thee, unto me, and make mention of me unto Pharaoh, and bring me out of this house:

Three Days after the Great Miracle, the cup of that which Satan had given to mankind, was given back to Satan and he was Cast out of Heaven...Luke 10:18-20 (KJV)

And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. [19] Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. [20] Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

The earth shook and the Vale in the Temple was rent in Twain...Matthew 27:50-54 (KJV)

Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. [51] And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; [52] And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, [53] And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. [54] Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

Truly this was the Light Switch, that lights every man that cometh into the world...John 1:9-14 (KJV)

That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. [10] He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. [11] He came unto his own, and his own received him not. [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. [14] And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
