God's Anointed Prophet From The East

“It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honor of kings is to search out a matter (Proverbs 25:2).”

God prepared an end time plan for his people, and he called it prophecy. The Bible consists of many unclear verses of prophecy, however God gave believers keys which unlock the mysteries and exalt the premise of his end time plan. This means that God’s thoughts for the end times were fashioned before the foundations of the world were laid, but by his craftiness, this end time plan kept hidden until the appointed time. Now that end times are upon us, every faithful priest and prophet needs to divorce their former understandings of prophecy, in order to see through the flawed lens of mistaken interpretations, and discover the true vision that God has prepared for his people, as it was presented in the pure doctrine of his word. If the leaders of God’s people will search the scriptures for understanding early, ahead of that day, then they will perceive and know the earnest desire of God’s heart for these times. Their work, or lack of it, will have a dramatic impact on their congregation’s safety during these times.

“All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these things? The Lord hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm shall be on the Chaldeans. I, even I, have spoken; yea, I have called him: I have brought him, and he shall make his way prosperous. Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord God, and his spirit, hath sent me. Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go (Isaiah 48:14-17).” 

“I have even from the beginning declared it to thee; before it came to pass I showed thee... Thou hast heard, see all this; and will not ye declare it? I have showed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not  know them. They are created now, and not from the beginning (Isaiah 48:5-6).”

“Counsel is mine... I am understanding; I have strength... I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me (Proverbs 8:14-17).”

“Woe to them that are at ease in Zion... Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near; That lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches... That drink wine in bowls and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph. Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed. The Lord God hath sworn by himself... I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and I hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein (Amos 6:1-8).”

“Where are they? Where are thy wise men? And let them tell thee now, and let them know what the Lord of hosts hath purposed upon Egypt (Isaiah 19:12).” “Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! (Isaiah 5:21).” “Yet he also is wise, and will bring evil, and will not call back his words (Isaiah 31:2).” “Thus saith the Lord God; Remove the diadem, and take off the crown: this shall not be the same: exalt him that is low, and abase him that is high (Ezekiel 21:26).”

“I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; That frustrateth the tokens of the liars, and maketh diviners mad; that turneth wise men backward, and maketh their knowledge foolish; that confirmeth the word of his servant, and performeth the counsel of his messengers (Isaiah 44:24-26).” 

The Lord hath chosen and anointed a faithful priest, one among his people, one who is willing to do His commandments, and one who will EXECUTE God’s word in accordance with his instructions. The anticipated prophet whom the Lord hath chosen will rise up out of the Islamic nation. 

“I am God, and there is none else... there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure: Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that EXECUTETH my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it (Isaiah 46:9-13).” 

“The anger of the Lord shall not return, until he have EXECUTED, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly (Jeremiah 23:20).”

“Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that EXECUTETH judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it. And though they say, The Lord liveth; surely they swear falsely. O Lord... thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock: they have refused to return (Jeremiah 5:1-3).”

Throughout the ages believers have earnestly desired to understand prophecy, therefore diviners, as well as prophets supplied them with interpretations. Because prophecy is full of words that conjure up disturbing images and make harsh allegations, the reports concerning this end time prophet were only evil. For this reason Christian’s are terrified of him, and they will call him, The Antichrist. But if they had believed the Apostle John’s report concerning antichrist, then they would have known that this man cannot be an antichrist. And if they had believed the ancient prophets, then they would have known that this prophet is being sent unto them for their good. In other words, they are deceived by false prophets, and therefore they do not believe God’s word. The Lord of hosts will safely guide, deliver, and protect his anointed prophet from the deceived children of the false prophets. 

“I have raised him up in righteousness, and I will direct ALL his ways: he shall build my city, and he shall let go my captives, not for price nor reward, saith the Lord of hosts (Isaiah 45:13).”

“And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land (Isaiah 32:2).”

“Who raised up the righteous man from the East, called him to his foot, gave nations before him, and made him rule over kings? He gave them as the dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow (Isaiah 41:2).”

“I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye (Psalm 32:8).” 

Some of the prophecies which supply information about the Lord’s anointed were written in the book of Daniel. In the eighth chapter of the book, he is depicted as the Little Horn. This chapter testifies that God’s prophet will understand the hidden mysteries of prophecy, and that he will be highly successful at destroying religion. According to the angel that talked with Daniel, this chosen man will cause crafty policies with ulterior motives to thrive, but he will be corrected, and ultimately he will glorify God. Note that the words “dark sayings” pertain to the hidden truths of prophecy. God’s prophet is delivering the truth of prophecy unto all nations: but he will begin his execution by delivering the good news to uninformed Christians. 

“The he goat waxed very great: and when he was strong, the great horn was broken; and for it came up four notable ones toward the four winds of heaven. And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which waxed exceedingly great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the pleasant land (Daniel 8:8-9).” 

“And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be... Now the great horn being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not in his power. And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding DARK SENTENCES, shall stand up. And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully... and shall destroy the mighty and holy people. And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand... and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand (Daniel 8:19-25).”

“I will gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved, But it be so, I did not burden you, nevertheless, being CRAFTY I caught you with guile (2Corinthians 12:15-16).”

“Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth. I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter DARK SAYINGS of old (Psalm 78:1-2).”

In the twelfth chapter of Daniel a prince named Michael stands up. Think about God’s election and use of this particular name. Micheal’s name appears in this prophecy because it is the name of one of the chief princes of Persia; a city name which pertains to Islam. In the tenth chapter of Daniel, Micheal is warring alongside, and in agreement with Christ: so from studying what is written in the tenth chapter of Daniel, it is reasonable to conclude that Michael is spiritually battling against the religious objections of his own people; he is fighting to get them to open their eyes and see that God has chosen to allow people of every religion to enter into his kingdom. So this name is used in the prophecy of the twelfth chapter, because, like Michael, God’s anointed end time prophet is of the Islamic nation, and he is warring to open the eyes of every believer, and to cause them to acknowledge the complete family of God. Now back to the twelfth chapter of Daniel wherein this chosen prophet of the Lord stands up. The first three verses of this chapter are the only verses which pertain directly to the anointed prophet. Yet in these three verses alone God discloses two very important things: that this prophet will stand up in the middle of the tribulation period, and the utter significance of that day when he stands up and makes his public debut. On that day there will be great divide, for when he stands up, the Holy Spirt will be poured out upon believers who have prepared their hearts, and the travail of bringing forth new understanding will suddenly come upon all the unbelieving who had closed their minds to the possibility, and would not hear.  

“And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to ever lasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they shall turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever (Daniel 12:1-3).” 

“BEFORE she travailed, SHE BROUGHT FORTH; BEFORE her pain came, SHE WAS DELIVERED OF A MAN CHILD (Isaiah 66:7).”

“For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people (Isaiah 28:11).”

There is much information regarding the Lord’s anointed prophet found under the parable name of, “Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon.” And in that same way, his followers are named “the people of the North,” and “the kings of the Medes.” God has some very important work for this man, but also for his followers: he calls them his army, and his weapons of war. This swift group of fierce believers will come to destroy the mistakes of every religion, and they begin with Tyrus, and Babylon. Let’s talk about parable names. For the express purpose of prophecy, God recorded actual names of the past and certain events which took place, and the names of the cities wherein good and bad things happened, as well as the messages that he sent to those who were there, and God used those true accounts for crafting understanding into his end time plan: believing that God can do this is the key that unlocks the secrets of prophecy and allows believers to know what is coming. The meaning of each parable name is provable, and it is proven by studying scripture’s record of the historic past. These keys were discovered because God inserted and used actual names in prophetic verses of scripture, and thereby he caused believers to find out his devise.

“Thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will bring upon Tyrus Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, a king of kings, from the north, with... companies, and much people (Ezekiel 26:7).” “Who hath taken this counsel against Tyre, the crowning city, whose merchants are princes, whose traffickers are the honorable of the earth? The Lord of hosts hath purposed it, to stain the pride of all glory, and to bring into contempt all the honorable of the earth (Isaiah 23:8-9).”  

“We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her... The Lord hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his devise is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the Lord, the vengeance of his temple... Thou art my battle axe and weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms... and with thee I will break in pieces man and woman; and with thee I will break in pieces old and young; ...I will also break in pieces with thee the shepherd and his flock... And I will render unto Babylon and to all the inhabitants of Chaldea all their evil that they have done in Zion in your sight, saith the Lord (from Jeremiah chapter 51:9-24).”

“The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble... 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? (Joel 2:10-11).”

“Son of man, Nebuchadnezar king of Babylon caused his army to serve a great service against Tyrus... yet had he no wages, nor his army, for Tyrus, for the service that he served against it: Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I will give the land of Egypt unto Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon; and he shall take her multitude, and take her spoil, and take her prey; and it shall be wages for his army (Ezekiel 29:18-19).”

In the book of Isaiah God once again surnamed his anointed prophet, this time calling him by the name of Cyrus. Of course this name was not chosen by accident either: King Cyrus was also a king of Persia, and in the middle of Israel and Judah’s captivity, God stirred up King Cyrus’ spirit and charged him with building the house of God in Jerusalem. King Cyrus commanded the work to begin, and the foundation of the Lord’s house was laid, however king Cyrus died, and the work ceased, and the temple was not completed until the appointed time. During end times, God will stir up the spirit of his prophet, and like Cyrus, he will lay the foundation of the Lord’s house which is in Zion. Now back to the prophecy that is written in the book of Isaiah. This prophecy gives voice to the blessing which God is placing upon the head of his chosen prophet: 

“That saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure: even saying to Jerusalem, Thou shalt be built; and to the temple, Thy foundation shall be laid. Thus saith the Lord to his ANOINTED, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel. For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me. I am the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me: That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the Lord, and there is none else (Isaiah 44:28-45:6).”

“And who is a chosen man, that I may appoint over her? For who is like me? And who will appoint me the time? And who is that shepherd that will stand before me? (Jeremiah 49:19).”

As affirmed by the words of the prophet Isaiah when he prophesied the blessing of God upon the head of his anointed prophet: for Israel, as well as for his servant Jacob’s sake, the Lord our God has prophesied the name of the prophet that he anointed and chose. This is why God mentioned and repeated the words twice, saying, “I have even called thee by thy name.” For when God’s word says something twice, it means that it was established by him. How awesome is our God: He prophesied this prophet’s name way back from the days of Isaiah! How incredible is our God!

“Moreover, the Lord said unto me, Take thee a great roll, and write in it with a man’s pen concerning Ma-her-shal-al-hash-baz. And I took unto me faithful witnesses to record, Uriah the priest, and Zechariah... and I went unto the prophetess: and she conceived, and bare a son. Then said the Lord to me, Call his name Ma-her-shal-al-hash-baz... And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offense to both the houses of Israel, and for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken. Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth his face from the house of Jacob, and I will look for him (from Isaiah chapter 8).”

Christianity’s rulers will soon hear the rumor that God anointed Ma-her-shal-al-hash-baz, and they will tremble and be afraid. Their response is magnified in verses which pertain to the rumor that is being heard in the land. It’s also the same rumor that will spark God’s prophet and his helpers to gather their forces together and make ready for the battle. This rumor is part of God’s end time plan, and it is purposed to cause believers to open up their mouths and confess his work, even those leaders who have sworn oaths to the contrary.

“I have heard a RUMOR from the Lord, and an ambassador is sent unto the heathen, saying, Gather ye together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle (Jeremiah 49:14).”

“Ye shall hear of wars and RUMORS of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet (Matthew 24:6).”

“O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian (Isaiah 10:24).” “Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a RUMOR, and shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land (2Kings 19:7).”

“The Assyrian... shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall be discomfited. And he shall pass over to his strong hold for fear, and his princes shall be afraid of the ensign, saith the Lord, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem (Isaiah 31:8-9).”

“For thus hath the Lord of hosts said, Hew down the trees, and cast a mount against Jerusalem: THIS IS THE CITY TO BE VISITED; she is wholly oppression in the midst of her. As a fountain casteth out her waters, so she casteth out her wickedness: violence and spoil is heard in her; before me continually is grief and wounds. Be thou instructed, O Jerusalem, lest my soul depart from thee; Lest I make thee desolate, a land not inhabited (Jeremiah 6:6-8).” (For the prophetic meaning of the word Jerusalem, see Galatians 4:26) 

“Yea, the wall of Babylon shall fall. My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the Lord. And lest your heart faint, and ye fear for the RUMOR that shall be heard in the land; a rumor shall both come one year, and after that in another year shall come a rumor, and violence in the land, ruler against ruler. Therefore, behold, the days come, that I will do judgment upon the graven images of Babylon: and her whole land shall be confounded, and all her slain shall fall in the midst of her. 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, saith the Lord. And as Babylon hath caused the slain of Israel to fall, so at Babylon shall fall the slain of all the earth. Ye that have escaped the sword, go away, stand not still: remember the Lord afar off, and let Jerusalem come into your mind. We are confounded, because we have heard reproach: shame hath covered our faces: for strangers are come into the sanctuaries of the Lord’s house (Jeremiah 51:44-51).”

“The Lord of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand: That I WILL BREAK THE ASSYRIAN IN MY LAND, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders. THIS IS THE PURPOSE THAT IS PURPOSED UPON THE WHOLE EARTH: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. For the Lord of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? And his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? (Isaiah 14:24-27).”

Certain rulers which have been aware of God’s end time plan, have SWORN A COVENANT together promising that none of them will ever mention their involvement with it. They are watching to see what will happen. In effect, they are saying in their heart that they do not trust that this is God’s end time plan, so they will wait for a sign. But as they wait and do nothing, people are dying and are being killed in the name of religion, and others are being stricken and dying because of the coronavirus curse. These rulers have been given evidence which tells them what they can do to cure these things, so now blood is on their hands and their waiting is transgression. God’s word commands them to execute the information that they are withholding, but they have turned their backs and they are not listening to God. These rulers, like thieves, are promoting and allowing false teachings to rob God of children. They will grieve for the decisions that they are making; for when troubles come upon them and their followers, and they cry out to God, he will cast them behind his back, and remove his Holy Spirit from them: it will be done unto them according to as they have done. Therefore God’s word loudly protests against them, commanding these rulers to execute his plan, calling them all adulterers, and thieves, and robbers, and saying that his fear is not in them. He accuses them of worshipping a strange god, of disrespecting his word, and of rendering the pen of his scribes useless and vain.

“How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain (Jeremiah 8:8).”

“Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God (Joel 1:13).”

“The land is full of adulterers; for because of swearing the land mourneth (Jeremiah 23:10).”

“As troops of robbers WAIT FOR A MAN, so the company of priests MURDER in the way by consent: for they commit LEWDNESS (Hosea 6:9).” 

“Protest solemnly unto them, and show them the manner of the king that shall reign over them... He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself... And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive yards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants... And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye have chosen you; and THE LORD WILL NOT HEAR YOU IN THAT DAY (1Samuel 8:9-18).”

“Thou hast discovered thyself to another than me, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made thee a covenant with them; thou lovedst their bed where thou sawest it (Isaiah 57:8).”

“Hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is Jerusalem. Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: Therefore thus saith the Lord God... 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 (Isaiah 28:14-18).”

“I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and I will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible. I will make a man more precious than fine gold; even a man than the golden wedge of O-phir. Therefore I will shake the heavens, and the earth shall remove out of her place, in the wrath of the Lord of hosts, and in the day of his fierce anger... They shall every man turn to his own people, and flee every one into his own land. Every one that is found shall be trust through; and every one that is JOINED UNTO THEM shall fall by the sword (Isaiah 13:11-15).”

“A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas (Matthew 16:4).” In truth, just as the prophet Jonah was devoured up, so shall it come, and be upon these wicked rulers: “Your own sword hath devoured your prophets, like a destroying lion (Jeremiah 2:30).”

“And touching the house of the king of Judah, say, Hear ye the word of the Lord; O house of David, thus saith the Lord; EXECUTE judgment in the morning, and deliver him that is spoiled out of the hand of the oppressor, lest my fury go out like fire, and burn that none can quench it, because of the evil of your doings. Behold, I am against thee... which say, Who shall come down against us? Or who shall enter our habitations? But I will punish you according to the fruit of your doings, saith the Lord (Jeremiah 21:11-14).”

“The king of Babylon stood at the parting of the way, at the head of two ways, to use divination... At his right hand was the divination for Jerusalem... And it shall be unto them as a false divination in their sight, to them that have sworn oaths: but he will call to remembrance the iniquity, that they may be taken (Ezekiel 21:21-23).”

“And I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against the false swearers, and against those that oppress the hireling of his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and that turn aside the stranger from his right, and Fear Not Me, saith the Lord of hosts (Malachi 3:5).”

“The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed (1Samuel 2:10).”

Additional evidence which might break the misplaced confidence of some of these prideful rulers, has to do with God’s promise that if they refuse to consider what will they are doing to their followers, then they will surely cry themselves. For their admonishment God has included some prophesied cries of his children, even the cries of a coronavirus victim.

“Save, Lord: let the king hear us when we call (Psalm 20:9).” “Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor, he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard (Proverbs 21:13).” 

“O Lord God of my salvation, I have cried day and night before thee: Let my prayer come before thee: incline thine ear unto my cry; for my soul is full of troubles: and my life draweth nigh unto the grave... Thou hast laid me in the lowest pit, in Darkness, in the deeps. Thy wrath lieth hard upon me, and thou hast afflicted me... Thou hast put away my acquaintance far from me; thou hast made me an abomination unto them: I am shut up, and I cannot come forth. Mine eye mourneth by reason of affliction... Lord, why casteth thou off my soul? Why hidest thou thy face from me? (From Psalm 88).”

“My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? Why art thou so far from helping me? ...I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent... My strength is DRIED UP... for dogs have compassed me... Be not thou far from me, O Lord: O my strength, haste to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog (from Psalm 22).”

“O God, thou hast Cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again. Thou hast made the earth to tremble... Thou hast showed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment. Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of truth. That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and HEAR me (Psalm 60:1-5).” 

“Bow down thine ear, O Lord, Hear me: for I am poor and needy. Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee. Be merciful unto me, O Lord: for I cry unto thee daily... All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name. For thou art great, and doest wondrous things: thou art God alone. Teach me thy way, O Lord, I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name. I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify thy name for evermore (from Psalm 86).”

“Save me, O God; for the waters are come in unto my soul... I am weary of crying: my throat is DRIED: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God... Hear me, O Lord; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies. And hide not thy face from thy servant; for I am in trouble: hear me speedily. Draw nigh unto my soul, and redeem it: deliver me because of mine enemies (from Psalm 69).” 

“I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim (Jeremiah 7:15).” 

From the pages of Leviticus comes a law which offers counsel to the rulers that have sworn oaths. This law is written in Leviticus chapter five: but this message offers a reworded version of it, which is given to insure perfect understanding. The law begins by stating that if a person witnessed the swearing of these oaths, which are contrary to God’s word, then they need to tell someone about it: for if they at all keep it to themselves and do not tell anyone, then they will bear their iniquity. Next the law judges those persons who were sitting in the gatherings of these dishonest rulers, and were carried away with their dissimulations. The law insists that even though the teacher’s uncleanness was not known, when the truth is discovered, then the attendees are guilty and unclean. The law then judges those priests and prophets who swore the oaths which were contrary to God’s word. The law testifies that if a soul utters an oath with his lips, whether to do good, or to do evil, when the person finds out the truth of the matter, then he is guilty and unclean. Yet even after discovering their iniquity to them and judging them guilty, God is faithful, and he concluded the law by testifying some excellent news:

“It shall be, when he shall be guilty in one of these things, that he shall confess that he hath sinned in that thing: and he shall bring his trespass offering unto the Lord for his sin which he hath sinned... and he shall bring them unto the priest... and the priest shall make an atonement for him as touching his sin that he hath sinned in one of these, and it shall be forgiven him: and the remnant shall be the priest’s, as a meat offering (Leviticus 5:5-13).”

In other words, confess your sins to God, then go into God’s fields and confess your sins to a deceived soul, and bring that person into your new found understanding. Then the two of you are to go into the house of the Lord, where you can share your testimonies, and confessions, and understandings with the priest. Then the priest will then pray for you, and your sins will be forgiven. The confession, and testimonies, and the understandings that the two shall offer, will work to help inform and strengthen the priest. In the book of Job, God displayed evidence of the importance of the priest’s involvement, and his blessing.

“Ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right, as my servant Job hath. Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams, and go to my servant Job, and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering; for my servant Job shall pray for you: for him will I accept: lest I deal with you after your folly, in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job. They went and did according as the Lord commanded them: the Lord ALSO accepted Job. And the Lord turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends (Job 42:7-8).”

“Above all things, my brethren, swear not, neither by heaven, neither by earth, neither by any other oath: but let your yea be yea; and your nay, nay; lest ye fall into condemnation (James 5:12).” 

Now let’s talk a little more about this Coronavirus curse. Many years after God covenanted with Moses and his people, and swore an oath to bring the curse, the prophet Zechariah had a vision. Zechariah saw the curse that God had planned to deliver for the purpose of fulfilling his word. His testimony concerning the vision was recorded in the book of Zechariah, chapter five. This vision increases our understanding of the curse, and it also is offers believers a clearer vision of just who will be afflicted by it. 

“Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll. And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll... Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it. I Will BRING IT FORTH, saith the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the THEIF, and into the house of him that SWEARETH FALSELY by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof (Zechariah 5:1-4).”

Notice that part of the vision which declares, “I will bring it forth.” These strong words once again testify of God’s ever lasting promise to keep his word and the oath that he swore to our forefathers, reassuring faithful believers that he will bring the curse. The flying roll which appeared in the vision represents God’s word as it is being carried forth by his messengers. The words “this side according to it” and “that side according to it” have to do with the day in which that a believer receives knowledge and finds out the true meaning of God’s end time plan. The words “thief” and “steal” pertain to the thief that is robbing God of his children. In this instance the Lord of hosts is declaring that in the day that his people receive knowledge of his end time plan, if leaders and their followers maintain their course and continue to tell the lies that are causing God’s children to forsake him and follow after false gods and lying teachings, then they are guilty of being thieves, and robbers, and they will be afflicted. The words “sweareth falsely” pertain to the oath and the covenant promise that God’s people MADE AND ENTERED INTO on the day that they chose to be called by his name. This curse, the one that goes out before the people have heard the true meaning of prophecy, is the coronavirus pandemic, and it is God’s end time sign. It is already upon earth and it is afflicting the people that have broken God’s covenant, and it will continue to afflict this type of person until the day that the backslidden believers are given the new covenant, and hear the good news. 

“Thou hast AVOUCHED the Lord this day to be thy God, and to walk in his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his judgments, and to hearken unto his voice. And the Lord hath AVOUCHED thee this day to be his peculiar people, as he hath promised thee, and that thou shouldest keep all his commandments (Deuteronomy 26:17-18).” 

“Cursed be the man that obeyeth not the words of his covenant... that I may perform the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers (Jeremiah 11:3; 11:5).”

“I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I made with all the people. And it was broken in that day: and so the poor of the flock that waited upon me knew that is was the word of the Lord (Zechariah 11:10-11).”

God is trying to open the eyes of faithful believers before that great day. He will forgive our iniquities if we repent, and if we hear and obey his voice.

“Write ye this song... for when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers... then will they TURN UNTO OTHER GODS, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant. And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are befallen them, that this song shall testify against them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed (Deuteronomy 31:19-21).”

“Take thee a ROLL of a book, and write therein all the words that I have spoken unto thee against Israel, and against Judah, and against the nations... It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the evil which I purpose to do unto them; that they return every man from his evil way; that I may forgive their iniquity and their sin (Jeremiah 36:2-3).”

God made many promises to his people, and one of them was to correct them when they had corrupted their way. Punishments are necessary, for God has been patiently waiting for his children to do the right thing, but when that day finally comes, their disobedience must be addressed for the good of his children. God has been pleading to have everyone’s cooperation, for he intends to bring big change upon the earth, and his will, will be accomplished. How can anyone see all of this evidence, and still ignore God’s word? Nevertheless, God in his infinite mercy has also prophesied promises unto the believers that repent afterwards; saying that they will not be forgotten for ever, they are his children, and they belong to him.  

“I have found David... with my holy oil I have anointed him... his seed also will I make to endure for ever... if his children forsake my law... and keep not my commandments; then I will visit their transgression... Nevertheless my lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer my faithfulness to fail. My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips. Once I have sworn by my holiness that I will not lie unto David. His seed shall endure for ever, and his throne as the sun before me. It shall be established for ever as the moon, and as a faithful witness in heaven. But thou hast CAST OFF AND ABHORRED, thou hast been wroth with thine anointed. Thou hast made void the covenant of thy servant: thou hast profaned his crown by casting it to the ground. Thou hast broken down all his hedges; thou hast brought his strong holds to ruin. All that pass by the way spoil him: he is a reproach to his neighbors. Thou hast set up the right hand of his adversaries; thou hast made all his enemies to rejoice. Thou hast also turned the edge of his sword, and hast not made him stand in the battle. Thou hast made his glory to cease, and cast his throne down to the ground... Remember, Lord, the reproach of thy servants... wherewith they have reproached the footsteps of thine anointed (from Psalm 89).”  

“The Lord will not cast off for ever (Lamentations 3:31).” “When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the Lord will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them (Isiah 41:17).” “Call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me (Psalm 50:15).” “And they shall be as though I had not cast them off: for I am the Lord their God, and will hear them (Zechariah 10:6).”

“Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, IF THOU WILT HEARKEN UNTO ME; There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any strange god (Psalm 81:8-9).”

“Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare the 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 there God? Then will the Lord be jealous for his land, and pity his people. Yea, the Lord will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen: But I will remove far off from you the northern army... Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the Lord will do great things (Joel 2:17-21).”
