וַישלח Vayishlach ( – ‘and he sent’)
Genesis 32:4(3) – Genesis 36:43
Introduction
‘Vayishlach’, וַישלח, ( ‘and he sent’). In this parsha, Jacob commanded and sent angels. Are we carnal or spiritual? The weapons of our warfare are not carnal but spiritual. We have to learn to fight spiritually in these end times. Prayer is not a small deal, it is central to physical and spiritual victory. The picture above is symbolic of our struggle. Our struggle with the enemy is far more a struggle with the Lord as we obtain the blessings by faith. Some prayers are answered quickly others take time and we have to be determined like Jacob who would not let the Lord go. When our world is turned upside down we need to overcome by faith. As Jacob returns to the land he must face Esau. So shall it be in the end times. Jacob wrestles with a man, but it is an angel for Jacob calls the place ‘Peniel‘, the ‘face of God‘, it is Yeshua, the God-Man! The ‘2nd Exodus‘ rescue will require such wrestling to get the blessing. The woman on the Moon is Zion, which is the ‘church of the firstborn‘, Hebrews 12. The Red Dragon is Satan, Revelation 12. The word for ‘Red‘ in Hebrew is ‘Edom‘, which is another name for Esau. It is also Papal Rome and the ‘Vatican‘ which means serpent, Roman soldiers wore red and so did the British soldiers during the American war of Independence, Edom’s colours. The Eagle represents the first 144,000 Servant sons that from Passover assist the Woman Zion, their mother, to escape the Dragon and flee to the wilderness after she gives birth to the 2nd 144,000 at Pentecost. This is the ‘2nd exodus‘ from the ‘north country‘ (Babylon USA) after-which the first exodus from Egypt will no longer be remembered in comparison because of its scope and size and miraculous end times nature. The Ark represents those in faith that rise as the flood comes upon the earth. This is a picture of the fall of Satan and Zion rising and prevailing.
In this talk I want to encourage us all to pray and gain victory from the ‘jaws of defeat‘ as Jacob learnt to. To learn to overcome the ‘gates of hell‘ by faith, walking in the victory of Yeshua HaMashiach. We actually have the victory, we just have to activate it by faith. The kingdom of God is already within us. We just need to bring it to birth by believing and doing. The time of travail that we have entered into is from the Lord as well as Satan. The Lord wants us to grow up. He wants the hidden man of the heart to be truly awakened and activated. Jacob must become Israel. Then we shall enter into a true spiritual and heavenly calling and be equipped to enter the promised land both here on earth and in the heavens above. This shall be our finest hour. We shall overcome all if we persevere by faith, having stood our ground in the ‘evil day‘. The Lord is coming very soon.
Fighting the Good fight & winning through Prayer
Like Jacob, I have been struggling with things. Most of us are busy just surviving. I had hoped to share some brief thoughts a day or two earlier. So this article will not be too long. I just want to encourage believers to pray without ceasing and to lean on the Lord for everything, like Jacob learnt to do. Are we carnal or spiritual? The difference between Jacob and Esau was the Jacob trusted in the Lord יהוה, while Esau trusted in his own understanding and might. Esau was successful but carnal, he was temporary. Jacob was initially weaker, but he learnt to walk with God and lean on Him. Jacob represents those that want the Lord, they are not just religious, they really walk with the King of Heaven and begin to learn His ways and overcome this world. If we are not a praying people we will not endure what is coming. Everything is about to be violently shaken, step by step our world is being unglued. Like Jacob we will soon be leaving our comfortable surroundings one way or another, whether by rapture or rupture (2nd exodus) or death. Time is up. If you are a ‘prepper‘, are you preparing your heart for the 2nd exodus? There is a time to leave the cities, but there is also a time soon to leave our nations for good. Are you preparing your heart to leave your preparations and your nation? We have the prophetic word but we don’t have a road map for exactly what is coming personally. We have to live by faith. Are we in prayer? Do you know that the purpose of the tribulation is to scatter the power of the holy people, Daniel 12:7? Why? Because like Jacob at the Jabbok river, Genesis 32:25, they need to come to an end of themselves to truly know Yeshua.
God’s people need to be praying people. We need to live our lives in a state of clinging faith and dependant daily communion, faith, hope and love. Pray. Seek the Lord while He may be found. Everything should be birthed in prayer; quiet, dependant, believing prayer. Looking to Yeshua, not the headlines. Pray. Know the Word of God and put the promises into action. Trust, fight on faithfully. Sing, worship, dance. Trust on, believe all things, hope all things. And continue on in faith despite the appearance of things. Live your life as a prayer. Lean hard on the Lord in all things. Land, houses, money, Gold and Silver will perish, but men and women of faith will endure all things, even as Love endures all things. God is Love. So learn His ways, hope in His mercy, keep His word and pray. It is a wonderful thing to know that you belong to God, that He loves you. It takes time to learn that. Many hurts come along to try and bump us off the road to Love, but Love calls after us. We all have to learn lessons and come to an end of ourselves. The end of ourselves is the beginning of God and true discipleship. We need to pray along life’s bumpy journey to the promised land. The enemy wants to discourage and destroy us, but God wants to break us and empower us, like Peter after he denied the Lord, we need to know our weakness before we can feed his sheep. Our usefulness and victory begin when we realise that without the Lord we can do nothing. And we will not make it through the difficult ‘end times‘ journey ahead of us without faith, hope and love and prevailing prayer despite the upsets and giant waves.
Jacob had many bumps on the road. Jacob came back into the land of Canaan after being ‘flogged to death‘ (overworked and underpaid) by Laban for 20 years. I guess we all are increasingly feeling like we are working for Laban as life gets more difficult. If we are not flogged by Laban we are being fleeced by Nabal (Laban backwards). Wages go down but Prices are going up. Right Judgement like ‘Dinah‘ is being raped by the Canaanites that rule over us. Obviously the bad guys are running the show. Esau rules, not Jacob. The bad guys have thrown off the Yoke of the Bible and replaced it with socialism, UN mandates, false science, humanism, witchcraft and LGBT XYZ nonsense which is just Satanism and madness.
But blessings come if we know how to fight spiritually. Jacob worked 7 years for his two wives, Lea and Rachel,14 years in total and 6 years for the cattle. God blessed Jacob and overturned every crafty trick that Laban had tried to defraud him. By the grace of God Jacob got 2 wives and their 2 maidservants, giving him 11 sons and then the 12th, Benjamin on the way to the promised land. Jacob got many of Laban’s flocks and herds because God was with him in his struggles. And Jacob got servants too. Now Jacob had to leave Laban with his booty and face his brother Esau who had earlier wanted to murder him. Facing Esau was ‘Jacob’s trouble‘.
Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob’s trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.
Jeremiah 30:7
What does this ‘trouble‘, צָרָה, entail? The next verse gives us the clue.
For it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off thy neck, and will burst thy bonds, and strangers shall no more serve themselves of him:
Jeremiah 30:8
Who’s yoke is on Jacob? Surely Jacob should be free? Who is the one that puts the yoke on Jacob’s neck? It is the very one, that Isaac prophesied would break the yoke of Jacob and gain dominion. Who is that? Esau is the one who puts a yoke on Jacob once he gains dominion and breaks Jacob’s yoke off of him. Esau was also called Edom. Esau is white like most of Jacob in America.
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.
Genesis 27:40-41
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.
The New World Order is simply Edom and Edom’s empire of Rome. Rome and the Vatican are now in full control of the USA and her satellites like Australia and New Zealand. Esau has subverted the christian west via the Vatican, Jesuitism, Illuminati, Masonry, Zionism, witchcraft and Satanism. Now our nations are controlled by the devil and his men in government. Esau has thrown off the gospel and all restraint, the FEMA camps are ready and death is coming along with the other horsemen of the apocalypse.
However as soon as Esau comes against Jacob and Zion, the curse of God comes upon him. God is using this struggle to wake up his people. Esau’s long fought for gain is only very very temporary. But much of Jacob will die due to sin. Dust to dust, ashes to ashes. And dust shall be the serpents meat. Repentance is the key to victory. The Lord tells us in Jeremiah 30:8 that He will break off Esaus Yoke from Jacob as soon as Jacob repents. The Lord is using the New World Order of Esau to get to Jacob’s heart. Much of Jacob is in the USA and have no clue as to what is going on and why. They have to wake up in the USA and world wide. This is the purpose of ‘the tribulation‘ for the descendants of Israel, this is the ‘time of Jacob’s trouble‘.
This time of ‘Jacob’s trouble‘, צָרָה, hearkens back to Genesis 35
And let us arise, and go up to Beth–el; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.
Genesis 35:3
The word ‘distress‘ is the same hebrew root word , צָרָה, translated ‘trouble‘ in Jeremiah 30:7.
So the word ‘tribulation‘ is the same idea as trouble. The tribulation is the time of Jacob’s trouble, a time where Jacob’s descendants must return to the land in the end times and face his foe Esau and his New World Order. The descendants of Jacob must face God and Yeshua and be broken in for service. The Lord is using the New World Order to get to our hearts.
The Jews currently living in the land have not squared off with Esau and the west controlled by Esau and Rome because they have not wrestled with Yeshua. The USA is very much controlled by Esau now. Jacob for the most part dropped the ball both in the land of Israel and in the western nations headed by the USA. There are individual believers in the modern state of Israel but as a nation they still have ‘no king but Caesar‘, John 19:15. They are in the land but still in subjection to Rome and its court Jews who kiss the Popes finger. They are controlled by Jews who are not Jews but at the ‘synagogue of Satan‘, including the Rothschild dynasty that helped in the founding of the modern state.
The recent attacks by Hamas on October 7th were allowed to happen and the secret service planned it out because they work for the Pope. Most American Christians have no idea who ‘rocks the cradle‘ in the land of Israel, they don’t know who is in control. They do not understand that below the surface the Vatican and Rome controls Israel and their leaders even as it controls America. I wrote about this in the article ‘Joseph, Jerusalem, Babylon & the Cup of Trembling‘. The Jewish state will go through much pain before they collectively ‘mourn for the one they have pierced‘. Whether Jew or Gentile or even from the 10 lost tribes of the House of Israel, we are all being forced to wake up, if that is still possible. Trouble is here and it is increasing world wide.
The ‘time of Jacob’s trouble‘ in Jeremiah 30:7 hearkens back to what Jacob referred to as his distress in Genesis 35:3. It is a foreshadowing of ‘the tribulation‘. The tribulation is a shake up of the world that will lead to widespread death of humanity before the KIngdom of God comes in it’s fullness. It is a time where Esau will gain full dominion for a tiny length of time to wreck his vengeance. It is the time of the Antichrist and Satan and his fallen angels. But it is also a time when believing Israel and Judah come together for the 2nd exodus. It is also a time when the gospel of the kingdom of preached world wide. It is also a time for the 144,000 manchild company that will fight with supernatural power. It is the time of Jacob’s trouble, but he shall be ‘saved‘ according to the same verse in Jeremiah 30:7. It is ‘trouble‘ for Jacob and the world, but Jacob’s descendants and those of the nations will be saved if they obey the Lord, if they walk in obedience to the gospel and humbly keep the commandments of the Lord. And yes there is martydom coming for many to secure their souls for eternity. One way or another Jacob is going home, both Jews (House of Judah) and the 10 lost tribes of the house of Israel. A few may be ‘raptured‘ but many more will leave by way of the 2nd exodus, something Christians for the most part do not understand. You see, only the pure in heart who have clean hands can ascend to heaven, Psalms 24:4, faith in Yeshua is just the beginning of the journey, we have to be ‘rapture ready‘ and firstfruits go first.
There is a great move of the Holy Spirit coming. There is a huge ‘great awakening‘ coming in a time of mass mayhem, pestilence, death and war. The 2nd exodus will come suddenly on the wings of an eagle with great speed at this time like birth pangs. Is this Passover to Pentecost 2024? The Lord will soon bring us out from amongst the nations, including Babylon USA which shall ultimately be destroyed by fire after being ravaged by pestilence, famine, revolution, earthquakes, invasion and nuclear fire. The tectonic changes in the earth will change the map of the world including the USA and Australia forever. Jacob is leaving the USA and all the other little Babylon whore houses including Australia, New Zealand, Britain and a portion from South Africa, wherever the 10 lost tribes and the Jews dwell. These nations shall suffer the same fate as the USA, for the same reason, rampant ‘sin‘ and blood guiltiness. The nations that we currently live in shall be utterly destroyed, the Lord shall make a ‘full end‘ of them, greater than the judgement of Egypt in the 1st Exodus.
For I am with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
Jeremiah 30:11
The Lord will not make a full end of his people but he will destroy the majority of Jacob, Isaiah 10:22, Romans 9:27, because of their wickedness or religious hypocrisy, the salt has lost its savour, Matthew 5:13. If we don’t want to be trampled of men, we have to forsake everything and be ready to leave our nations, Luke 14:33-35. The Lord has one set of standards for everyone, one law, one Messiah and one baptism. He will correct us measure for measure if we truly belong to Him. Those of Jacob that walk in disobedience and refuse to repent will perish. Hell is being enlarged for her new inmates, many souls shall enter her gates, Hell is never satisfied. The Song of Moses says that the Lord’s anger shall burn to the ‘lowest hell‘, Deuteronomy 32:22, those that are of Israel but walk in disobedience will be given the greatest torment in the lowest hell, Read Matthew 11:20 onwards. To those that much is given to, much is also required, Luke 12:48. The soul that sins, it shall die, Ezekiel 18:4, to the Jew first and also to the gentile, Romans 2:9.
The Lord will save the remnant of Jacob when we are truly walking in repentance. He will allow the enemy to destroy our Sodomite cities and try our sleepy dead churches, many of them will be totally destroyed along with all of their worldly compromise. He will soon ‘rapture‘ the firstfruits, but not those that are asleep. Read my previous article ‘4 Gospels, 3 Raptures & The Return – Part 1 of 2‘ for more on the harvests and raptures plural. The Lord will take those that are ready. Faith in Yeshua is the beginning but if our hearts are not right we will miss out of going up until we are ready. Obedience and humility count. The Lord is coming like a ‘thief‘ and those ‘sleeping‘ will pay the price, they will miss Him when He calls, Revelation 3:3. We need to be ‘watching‘, Mark 13:37. Those that are ‘lukewarm‘ shall be spewed out, unless they repent, Revelation 3:16. There will be those in ‘Laodicea‘ whose faith will be truly tried in the fire like gold if they are half hearted and have trusted in their wealth. Jacob is going home. The 2nd exodus is about to begin soon but not before we see the destruction of our nations. To me it looks like 2024 through to 2025 will see devastation and the rise of the Antichrist, like ‘Pharaoh that knew not Joseph’.
Everything that we read in this weeks parsha, Vayishlach, is prophetic for these end times. The old is new again. We are coming into those times, in fact they are already here and the water is coming to the boil. But we need not fear the next lockdown or plandemic or invasion, we need to fear the Lord and not fear man. God is in control not man. God is about to awaken Jacob in earnest, both the house of Israel and the house of Judah. He will save what can be saved, a remnant that trembles at His Word.
The remnant of Edom shall also be saved, and there is a lot of Edom in the english speaking western world. Edom is not a camel jockey, he is not an Arab, Edom is a white man. Edom serves Jacob and seeks dominion over him. Edom has the upper hand now. Our freedoms are all but gone. Edom and Masonry go hand in hand. But there is a remnant of descendants of Edom that belong to the Lord. Not all of Edom is wicked, even as not all of Jacob is righteous. There are many believers amongst Edom, and they too are part of God’s house, the Lord is not just saving Jacob. The Lord’s love is deep and wide. All that call upon the Lord will be saved. But whoever we are we must look to the Lord and trust in Him and not ourselves. The Lord is looking for true hearts and obedient hearts.
America is really the land of Isaac, it’s the land of Esau and Jacob, Isaac’s two sons. The Anglo Saxon nations are high born nations in that sense, they have a pedigree back to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. The protestant reformation came from bible believing followers of Yeshua, it came from believers from Isaac’s two sons, Esau and Jacob. But now their once free nations have become dross, the slag and scum has risen to the top, but where is the gold of faith and the silver or salvation? Our generation is a corrupt,wicked and adulterous generation. Hell is opening its mouth for high born nations too and it will have its fill of them. We have sold ourselves and our democracy into slavery because we have turned against the rock of our salvation as a nation! Sin gives the devil power.
28 For they are a nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.
Deuteronomy 32:28-30
29 O that they were wise, that they understood this, that they would consider their latter end!
30 How should one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight, except their Rock had sold them, and the LORD had shut them up?
Germany turned against Jesus with higher criticism, godlessness and paganism and got Hitler, we have turned against Him and will receive the Antichrist, and much of the Church will love him dearly because God’s house has become a habitation of devils, lairs, prostitutes and thieves. Satan wants to rule the church, the congregation of the Lord.
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
Isaiah 14:13
Satan has the TV evangelists and much of the church in his claws. The mega churches milk the ignorant masses of their cash and preach a new age gospel of self dressed up in Jesus talk. Satan is pretty much reigning over the congregation now! There is now but a small and for the most part poor remnant that truly follow the Lord and hear his voice.
Of the 7 churches in Revelation 2 and 3 the central church of Thyatira has a murderous whore spirit of hell named Jezebel reigning as queen, Revelation 2:20. Jezebel kills the prophets, seduces the people into fornication and idolatry. Much of the church is ignorant of the prophetic word or the peril around them. But there are overcomers, true men of steel who had been spiritually castrated by her that will spiritually push her out the window and wipe her out and preach the word! Suffering servants know warfare and will not quit. God help us all to be faithful. These are not days to get discouraged but days for us to draw near to God. Be a true heart and don’t give up. The spirit of holiness is coming during a time of great spiritual darkness. The 2nd exodus is coming. The true church shall be manifested, starting with her first born sons and then the rest. The Lord shall put his people on display before the dukes of Edom. They shall be amazed. Zion shall be revealed, Psalm 48, and the Kings of the earth shall flee away with their lizard tails between their lizard legs. Zion shall shine, both the city in the sky and her people on earth.
1 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
Isaiah 60:1-4
2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side. <2nd Exodus!>
The Anglo Saxon nations are really a mixture of Isaacs two sons, one after the Flesh, and the other after the Spirit. But we all make our own choices. I am not judged by my pedigree and whether I come from Esau or Jacob. I am not judged by what my father did. I am judged according to my own choices. So if you are from Esau then be a Caleb, and if you are from Israel, be a Joshua. Seek the Lord whoever you are and humble thyself if the sight of the Lord.
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
James 4:10
The name of the parsha, ‘Vayishlach‘, means ‘and he sent‘. But what did Jacob send? He sent ‘messangers‘, מַלְאָכִים, Malachim in Hebrew. Malachim means angels, Jacob sent ‘angels‘. To an unbeliever like Esau, prayer may seem for the weak. Who needs prayer when you have a sword or a six shooter. But the uncircumcised of heart do not see God or experience His visitations and salvation. From God’s perspective, Jacob was the star because Jacob sought God and valued his blessing. Jacob humbled himself before the Lord and stated his own unworthiness.
I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies, and of all the truth, which thou hast shewed unto thy servant; for with my staff I passed over this Jordan; and now I am become two bands.
Genesis 32:10
Jacob had his failings, but he was not ‘self made‘ nor was he not proud and ‘cock sure‘ of himself. Unlike Esau, Jacob wanted the Lord and truly humbled himself before him, and would not let him go!
When the Lord looks down from Heaven, who does He look for, who does He highly esteem? Is it the one that knows how to use a gun or is a proud self made man? Esau means ‘made‘, Esau was ready made, he was the man’s man, action man, he had it all. But he didn’t have saving faith. So who does the Lord look for? Who does He esteem? The Lord alone is high and lofty. But what does he value in men?
For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Isaiah 57:15
God does not see men as man sees men. God looks on the heart! Esau and the New World Order cannot win because they are only proud dust. The Lord just uses them for a moment to get Jacob’s attention. God wants our humble hearts. This is why prayer is so important. This is why prayer and faith of a humble heart avails much!
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
James 5:16
Esau was not a righteous man. Jacob was. Esau conquered and then Esau died.
The reason the bad guys are in control is because the church has not been praying or walking in obedience. They holy city has become a harlot, our nations have become Babylon, Sodom and Egypt. We ought to pray more and seek the Lord diligently. Don’t look at what the bad guys are doing so much as seek the Lord and find out what He is doing. Seek His face and live. Don’t look at the waves, look to Yeshua.
I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
Hosea 5:15
The ‘affliction‘ is coming. But seek the Lord. His eyes are upon the righteous.
For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
II Chronicles 16:9
The reason trouble is coming to the state of Israel and Babylon America and the world is ‘sin’.
But the Lord will show himself strong to the remnant whose heart is perfect towards him.
I am trying to encourage my readers to trust in the Lord through the coming lockdowns, war and persecution. Seek the Lord. Pray. Wrestle with the Lord Yeshua, get the victory in every situation. Don’t lose heart, don’t let go. Have clinging faith, don’t give up. Trust in Him. Don’t look on the appearance of things, but battle through prayerfully.
But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Hebrews 11:6
We don’t pray and then give up because we ‘tried’. We persevere, we press on like a good soldier. Remember that ‘Love endures all things, hopes all things’, I Corinthians 13:7. We are in for quite a ride. God help me too! The Spirit of the Lord will raise up a standard against the enemy.
19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.
Isaiah 59:19
20 And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD.
We are Zion. The Lord is about to turn the tables on the enemy. He is just allowing the enemy to do their thing to bring judgement and get our attention. We are going home soon.
Jacob had many troubles but he lived and walked with God more and more, and experienced many supernatural dreams and experiences. Jacob wrestled with God, saw God face to face, faced the new world order of His day (his brother Esau/Edom). Jacob commanded angels and became a nation called Israel. Later on he lost his beloved son Joseph, only to be reunited and see his lost son’s children, Ephraim & Manesseh and adopted them as his own. Jacob struggled to overcome all of his trials and managed to keep the birthright and blessings that he obtained from Esua. He only overcame because God loved him and was with him. And Jacob who became Israel passed the birthright and blessings on to the 12 tribes for their posterity.
And now we are living at the end times where all things for good and evil will be fulfilled, both blessings and cursing according to our faith and deeds. We shall all be standing before the Lord soon enough. If we are wise we shall shine, Daniel 12, and we shall all be part of one nation under God, a divided nation will become one in the hand of the Lord, Ezekiel 37:19. It shall not be America, it will be a reunited Israel & Judah in faith in Yeshua and under one Torah, from Genesis to Revelation and one Covenant forever. For a short while we shall be either in the heavens or in the Wilderness of the people as our nations are invaded and destroyed until Jerusalem receives the King of Heaven, Yeshua.
The nations and their might are lightly esteemed and counted as the dust by the Lord.
Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing.
Isaiah 40:15
What counts in God’s sight is faith. Are we a people of faith?
There is only one nation that the Lord has loved and counted as His own, and that is Israel. The gentiles however are not forgotten. If you are a member of the body of Messiah, then you are in covenant and adopted into his own, Romans 8:15, we now all have one Father. You are a ‘new creation‘, 2 Corinthians 5:17. You have a new master now, Yeshua. You have come into the ‘Heavenly Jerusalem‘, Mt Zion, Hebrews 12.
And so we are his sons and daughters wherever we come from if we believe in Yeshua, hear His voice, obey the Holy Spirit and keep His commandments by faith. And because we are family, the Lord will also correct us measure for measure. What the Lord says concerning Israel, applies to all his adopted children also.
You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
Amos 3:2
‘Iniquities‘ are habitual sins and bloodline sins. God accepts us but not our iniquity. We need the power of God to overcome these things. They often take a great deal of prayer and fasting to overcome these carnal prides and lusts. Let’s be prayerful.
We all have things to learn. Let’s deal with our sin now. Let’s humble ourselves now. Punishment is coming. We are coming into a time of judgement and the Lord will even use the wicked who are His ‘sword‘, Psalms 17:13, to bring that judgement before they are either converted or destroyed. We need to pray and seek the Lord earnestly as best we can. We should take to heart the lessons in the parsha and in Psalm 49.
5 Wherefore should I fear in the days of evil, when the iniquity of my heels shall compass me about?
Psalms 49:5-8
6 They that trust in their wealth, and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches;
7 None of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him:
8 (For the redemption of their soul is precious, and it ceaseth for ever:)
We should not trust in wealth or carnal weaponry. We must deal with the iniquity within. That is the real enemy. The enemy within. Sin.
The ‘weapons of our warfare’ ‘are not carnal‘ but ‘spiritual‘ we are told, II Corinthians 10:4. We have been given everything we need for life and godliness, II Peter 1:3. Most Christians or Torah based Messianics hardly know supernatural warfare. Most hardly walk in our divine and heavenly inheritance. I have hardly entered into it myself. But I know it is there. I have had a few skirmishes and some bruises and some victories by faith. But there is much, much, more. But it requires death to self to be His disciple, It takes true brokenness to be His Servant. We must be like Moses and leave the crowd if we would climb the mountain and reach the one standing there, Yeshua, we may have to go alone. Paul lost everything to walk with God. We have a steep learning curve coming. More lockdowns and mayhem on a much bigger scale. The waves will be getting bigger. But let us look to Yeshua.
We have all hopefully read the following…
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
Ephesians 6:10-13
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye 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 armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
We have read it now, but how many are living it? Do you live like this? Do you pray like this? Can we do more? Do you know that when we pray, hell trembles? Pray! And keep praying! Are you ‘self made‘ or are you ‘strong in the Lord‘ in the ‘power of his might‘? What are you believing God for? What miracles have you seen? What miracles are you hoping and praying for?
Jacob kept sheep, but he became much more than a farmer. Jacob had dreams. But he became more than a dreamer. Jacob saw beyond the veil and he didn’t make a pact with the devil to do it. Jacob saw the house of God and the Angels ascending and descending. Jacob wrestled, he faced his fears head on, he had no choice. God was with him. He would not let go until victory. He still had fears to overcome, but he had moments of clarity, communion, blessings amidst trials and deliverance from foes and fears real and imagined.
Esau was a military man, he had the right stuff right from birth, but he trusted in himself. Esau was born a ready made man and a natural leader of men and a warrior. Jacob in contrast started off unmade, a work in progress but still pliable and teachable. Jacob became a spiritual man and a shepherd. Jacob gently led people, he didn’t drive them and control them. Jacob was a smooth man, a mummies boy, but he became a man of God and in the end he shall take on Esau’s hairy mantle of manliness and world leadership even as Elisha took Elijah’s mantle. Jacob shall have dominion. The one that grasped the heal becomes the head, the last becomes first. Natural strength does not last the distance with our eternal and holy God. We need to Love God and learn to obey and learn of His strength and power. Those that will rule with God through eternal ages are those that love God and seek His face. Like the Messiah, they have their scars and sorrows and are well acquainted with grief.
Currently the wicked that run our nations have all the carnal weapons and even sci-fi technologies and supernatural help from the demonic realm. But they do not have ‘THE COVENANT‘, not a covenant that really counts anyway, not the covenant that will prevail and endure. The 11 dukes of Edom in Genesis 36 came and went. They were unstable even as 11 is about instability and judgement without mercy, their earthly power and magic does not last. They do not have a lasting dominion, they have but a fleeting flashy dominion of a shooting star and an eternal never ending covenant with ‘death and hell‘ and the torment of the lake of fire. They are now dead and buried, their terror was in the earth but now they are in hell. Their cup is full, their wages of sin are paid in full, their fate is sealed.
Sadly there are many of Jacob’s descendants that have sold their birthright and blessings for temporary gain and the same covenant with death and hell. The DNA altering vaccines are the beginning of the end of natural man. Humanity is being divided, we can only go to the divine in Yeshua or to the beast in Antichrist.
The reason the bad guys are in control is because the ‘Israel of God‘, Galatians 6:16, the church has for the most part allowed it! Israel of old was often letting the Lord down by not walking as they ought. The power has always been with us, not the enemy. But we have run away from the fight with the bow in our hands, Psalms 78:9! God is ready to save us from our enemies if we are ready!
10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
Psalms 81:10-15
11But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.
12 So I gave them up unto their own hearts’ lust: and they walked in their own counsels.
13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!
14 I should soon have subdued their enemies, and turned my hand against their adversaries.
15 The haters of the LORD should have submitted themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever.
Everything that is described here in Psalm 81 I have done. I am no better. But we must truly repent and turn to God. The Lord will deliver us from the wicked when we are listening to the Lord. Are we able to hear His voice?
Remember that the nations are counted as dust. This goes for the UN and all the agencies of the evil one. What counts is us, are we listening? Because we are connected directly to Yeshua, the head of all principality and power, the king of Heaven. We can talk to God as His sons and daughters. Can the bad guys? Yeshua is the head of all principality and power, and we are His body! It does not matter what your bloodline is, if you are born of God you have the King of heaven as your advocate. It matters who your head is. The body needs to be connected to her Head, Yeshua. We do that through the word of God and prayer.
Now Edom/Esau has carnal weapons and is aligned with Satan and Hell. But we are by no means defenceless. Like Jacob, our greatest weapon is the Word of God and prayer. It sounds too simple, too easy, but our defence is in God. The Lord knows those that love Him, He knows those that are truly His. Jacob got potential dominion over the promised land and ultimately the entire earth by faith. Yeshua secured our dominion forever. So Carnal weapons got Esau temporary kingdoms. Sadly those kingdoms are coming into complete captivity to the Kingdom of Darkness. Our nations are going down the drain into hell itself. We cannot serve two masters. There are only two kingdoms.
But in contrast, there is a real physical kingdom coming that is spiritual and heavenly in nature and genesis. Spiritual birth and spiritual soldiers with spiritual weapons will secure it. Supernatural warfare is coming. There is a new kind a man about to be born and a new kind of man-beast. On the one hand we have the 144,000 and on the other, Satan’s counterfeit iron and clay, hybrid Nephilim men of steel and their sick sadistic system. Which men of steel shall win?
Jacob wanted the Lord and his blessing while Esau was happy with this world and the things of earth and a belly full of lentils. Esau’s kingdom comes first, it appears with a brilliant flash of the sword, with gun powder and smoke and mirrors, but it does not last. Satan offered Yeshua the easy way to the kingdom by putting on a show to prove he was the son of God. Satan’s way is the easy road (to begin with). Jacob’s descendants were enslaved in Egypt while Esau was living the good life. Esau’s ‘New World Order’ subdued the world by brutal force, we see this with Rome. In the sovereign plan of God, it was Esau’s task to subdue the world in order for that evil world to be supplanted by Jacob, which is ultimately the Kingdom of heaven. Jacob follows the heals of Esau. The darkness is gathering for the final burst of it’s power but the kingdom of God will shortly crush Satan’s beastial empire as surely as the day conquers the night.
We are in the end times. And so we need to be spiritual and not carnal. We need to be asking the right sort of end times questions. Are we living by faith or by sight? Are we obtaining our heavenly calling? Are we in line for blessing or cursing? Are we prevailing. Let us prevail in prayer. Let us dig deep into the great well which is Almighty God. Jacob, like Abraham, believed God and got the birthright and the blessing. Now in this final hour we are in a pile of trouble. Do we have faith that can move mountains? Are we securing the kingdom? Are you doing the same as Jacob? Are you learning your lessons in this temporary world, are you walking by faith? Are you preparing to meet your maker? Are you ready to meet the Lion of the Tribe of Judah? It doesn’t matter where you are from so much as who you are looking to. You don’t even need to be from Jacob to get a blessing. Even if you are from Esau, you can still be like Caleb and obtain the blessings by faith and obedience. This has always been about the heart.
At present we see the wicked in power and we can be tempted to despair like the Priests of old.
14 Ye have said, It is vain to serve God: and what profit is it that we have kept his ordinance, and that we have walked mournfully before the LORD of hosts?
Malachi 3:14-15
15 And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered.
But the bible says,
7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:
Psalms 92:7-12
8 But thou, LORD, art most high for evermore.
9 For, lo, thine enemies, O LORD, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.
11 Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
The wicked may spring as the grass but they will be destroyed forever. Fresh oil is coming. An anointing is coming.
This is not just flowery poetry of yesteryear. This is biblical prophecy for NOW! You are living Psalm 92!
And the verses in Malachi that follow what the priests said, show what God will do for those that truly fear the Lord.
16 Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.
Malachi 3:16-18
17 And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.
18 Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.
Soldiers need courage, and like David, they need to learn to encourage themselves in the Lord. We need to keep coming back to the King of Heaven to face each day and quote his word with a song in our heart. The King has His Men! And the Lord knows them. He knew Jacob loved Him. He was with Him. He is with us, that is why He is called ‘Immanuel‘, ‘God with us‘! The Lord’s face is worth seeking. God is with us! Don’t give up because of what is coming. Seek Him diligently and get the victory. Let’s get real.
The Lord is coming swiftly to deal with the wicked that refuse to turn to Him.
1 The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
Psalms 110:1-6
2 The LORD shall send the rod of thy strength out of Zion: rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
3 Thy people shall be willing in the day of thy power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast the dew of thy youth.
4 The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
5 The Lord at thy 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 over many countries.
We shall rule in the midst of our enemies if we suffer with him, we shall also reign with Him, II Timothy 2:12. Even now we can reign with Him. We can walk in that spiritual dimension like Jacob, and use our weaponry. Let us seek His face. Let us pray.
Love in Yeshua our Messiah and Lord
