Shalom-shalom; peace in the name of Yeshua. This is Crystal Sharp and welcome to the Ancient Scrolls program. Today is the first day of the week, it is Sunday, October 28th
Let us pray. There is always much to pray about.
Father,
We come before You and proclaim that You are the King of the Universe, over heaven and earth. The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof; the world and those who dwell therein.
I ask You to cleanse me from all unrighteousness so that my prayers will not be hindered; cast our sins from us as far as the east is from the west.
The Shema proclamation:
Shema, O America, the Lord our God, the LORD is one. You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your strength.
You are the great I AM, strength is in your right hand. We pray Your righteousness and justice will prevail over the earth, over our government, over the lives of Your people. We pray Your remnant people will stand firm against the persecution that is already here. Your instruction to the church of Smyrna was for them to not be afraid of persecution. So like Paul prayed for boldness so we pray for boldness and courage in these last days to stand firm against the beasts, the antichrist spirit in the world.
We continue to pray that abortion will be repealed, we pray against the war against children: child molestation by family members, neighbors, church priests and leaders, teachers, those in government offices, military; our children live in perilous times. We pray for the total removal of human trafficking. We pray against adultery, idolatry, zoophilia, and we continue to pray for the homosexual, and gender confused to be delivered.
We pray against drug addiction and those government officials who are lobbyists for the spirit of pharmakia. We pray against witchcraft, and charismatic witchcraft, against the demons sent on assignment this Halloween.
We ask You to push back the principalities, the powers, rulers of darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places. We ask that You cause confusion and chaos in the camp of the enemy. We pray Your will be done in the earth as it is done in heaven.
We pray that You would saturate President Trump with Your Spirit of wisdom, knowledge and understanding, Your Spirit of might, and counsel, and the fear of the Lord. Help him to be discerning. We pray for his protection as the enemy becomes more emboldened in these end days.
We pray for Israel, for their protection as the nations are conspiring to destroy them. We pray for Your martyrs in the Middle east, and the Asian countries. They are starving in prisons, enduring great affliction because of their love for You. They are faithful to Yeshua, to Your truth. We pray Your great mercy and goodness will follow them. We pray You will prepare a table before them in the presence of their enemies and anoint their heads with oil until their cups overflow. They are true soldiers and You are their exceeding great reward.
In Yeshua’s name we pray. Amen.
I do have a Word from God for those who are able to receive; not everyone is able to receive because of other factors, but for those who are able to hear and receive, this is what I heard the Spirit of God say early Wednesday morning. So I give it to you, thus says the Lord of hosts: Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. Saying, Do not touch My anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm.
So, I did a search and found these prophetic words written in Amos 3 and I Chronicles 16:22
I believe that in the next few months there is going to be a coming forth of the anointed ones and prophets (prophetesses). They will not be received by everyone; that is the reason for the warning to do them no harm. They are going to have a different preach like John the Baptist: Repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. They will be the announcers of the second coming of Yeshua.
Acts 2,
And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, that I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy. Your young men shall see visions, your old men shall dream dreams.
And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.
I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath; blood and fire and vapor of smoke.
The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.
And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Creation is about to witness a great pouring out of His Spirit and it is going to usher in His coming.
Luke 1:17 This chapter an angel appears to Zacharias in the holy place and gives him a prophetic word concerning the soon birth of his son, John the Baptist.
Verse 17: He will also go before Yeshua in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
So that is the description of their mission, or the function of those who are getting ready to come forth in the last days to turn the disobedient to the wisdom of the just and to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.
Our Father God, has been saying to us for months to tell people we are in the end days, and if people could not receive it, to move on and go to the next one.
Sometimes I think about Noah and how he was building this exceptionally large boat, and that his doing this created a lot of conversation among the people of his time. I mean, how could anyone not notice what was going on.
So studying his story I visualize that eventually people came to his area to see what he was doing. This was a great undertaking for Noah. It was a project of mass proportions that required a lot of resources. Trees had to felled, stripped and shaped. Food had to be gathered for the animals and for themselves, there were only four men building this massive structure, there had to be an enormous amount of pitch to be used. It drew a lot of attention and ridicule.
One can be sure if there had been a Mesopotamian newspaper then; Noah would have made the headlines, and all the critics would have laid him out daily in their columns. Some say it took Noah 150 years to complete this project, so it is likely that he was harassed and oppressed for that length of time.
Noah created sensationalism. He created fear and alarm among the inhabitants that unless they repented certain judgment and destruction was coming.
These people are happy with the way things are, they are content with their violence against their neighbor. They just wanted to purge, like the movie purge. They don’t want to hear anything about repentance, about returning to God. To repent would mean they would have to give up their cruelty and their murderous acts.
And Noah talking about destruction sounds, you know, extreme. So let’s label Noah an extremist.
This is where the critics come in to do their job. Their job is to begin the process of alleviating this tension caused by fear and alarm. The idea is to attack the message, and the messenger with contempt. But the whole time they are actually attacking God.
But Noah did not allow the critics, the scoffers, mockers and scorners to deter him from performing his mission. He earns a great amount of respect that in spite of these detractors he continued to work in preparation for the judgment of destruction.
And you can see this in Yeshua going to the cross, that no matter what the detractors, mockers, scorners said, no matter how they abused his body, no matter their violence against Him—He was going to the cross; and they would not provoke Him to act out His ability to destroy them all.
Matthews account in chapter 27, even the thieves reviled Him. Later in Luke 22 we see that one of the thieves repented and Yeshua took him to paradise with Him.
This is how it was and this is where we are going in our day. There was a reason that Yeshua said in Matthew 24:37, But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
So, one of the signs that the days of the ancient people were numbered was by their violence against one another, and that they would not repent of it, they would not stop their violence.
And because of this same thing in Yeshua’s day, Jerusalem was attacked by Rome and destroyed, the Temple was destroyed, and those not killed were hauled off to the north to be sex slaves for the Romans.
The critics, scorners, scoffers in Yeshua’s day were destroyed. Yeshua told His disciples Jerusalem and the Temple would be destroyed . Matthew 24:2 And Jesus said to them, Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
In Noah’s time they had 3 elements that marked, or signaled their end of days: they had a messenger, they had a message of repentance and this is also seen in the days of Yeshua; that He, well and John the Baptist were messengers with the same message of repentance. The third signal for the people of Noah’s day was the ark of preparation that served as a perfect visual for them to understand that they were in their end of days. The ark was a continual reminder that once it was finished that it would be their end as well. We know Yeshua to be our ark of preparation. There is no other place that is safe; because the world is deceitful, hostile, in the world loyalties can change rather quickly, your allies can become your bitter enemies within a minute. I have seen it with families.
There are a few messengers that are sounding the alarm that we are in the end of days. Of course, they are scorned, mocked, criticized, and told they are doom and gloom prophets. But the background that supports them is the book of Revelation, plus Yeshua taught on the end of days.
My husband and I sense an urgency in our spirits to prepare for the persecution that coming, and to prepare ourselves for His return.
We are in a spiritual battle against the world, we have a spiritual enemy and the war is pretty intense and this will continually become worse as the days progress. The politicians are now experiencing the ugliness of the world in which we find ourselves. They are as much to blame as anyone else.
They are seeing what Genesis states that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every thought, or intention of man, was only to do evil against someone else.
All of these things show me we are at the end of the age.
In the next few months we are going to see more messengers that will have this urgency to prepare every one for the return of Yeshua. They will have the counsel of God.
I am going to say this, I am getting ready to close; Amos 3. Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets. Do not touch My anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm.
I don’t know what I can add to that.
I am going to end the program. Rico Cortes will sing the Aaronic blessing in Hebrew from Numbers 6:24-26.
If it is God’s will I will be here next program. Remember to walk by faith and not by sight. Do two things this week: love and forgive. Ask God to cleanse you from all unrighteousness every day. Keep your spiritual garments clean from wrinkles, spots and wrinkles. Love God, love your neighbor.
Be careful how you treat them. Do not abuse them.
The good news is that Christ is returning to restore all things once more and that righteousness and justice will rule from Jerusalem.
He probably would not have been able to sit down and eat without being spat upon, threatened and cursed. The Word is clear in Genesis 6 verse 5, then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every thought all day was only evil continually.
We understand Noah speaking forth the end days message of repentance and no one got on board the ship but the animals. Animals are smarter than people.
e John the Baptist today would be considered poor because he associated himself with the poor, most truly today John the Baptist would be insignificant, a homeless extremist, some would say fringe. Today people would wonder why his mother would not have had him aborted because he lived in the wilderness, he ate date honey and locust blossoms from locust trees. He wore sandals, a leather belt and camel hair. He rejected greed and would not devour the widows’ houses. He was the son of a priest and could have used the position to better himself to the standards of reprobate shepherds, but he would not.
The word of God burned him up like a fire in his bones: “Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand!”
especially if they are wearing sandals, camel hair and leather belts and are found in the wilderness eating wild honey and locust blossoms from the locust trees.
John the Baptist would be labelled an extremist today, a homeless extremist. Some people in the church would laugh him down because of his clothing
On the last program the feast of Sukkot, translating to tabernacles or booths was discussed. I had also pointed out that the book of Revelation houses all the fall feasts of the Lord: Yom Teruah, Yom Kippur, Tabernacles, Hoshanah Rabbah (the great salvation) and an extra day called the 8th day.
There are those who insist that the book of Revelation is already fulfilled, that we are already in the 7th millennium and are transitioning into the 8th day. Now, some of you already know that isn’t true. There are others who just wouldn’t know the difference because of they are unfamiliar with the passages concerning the millennium of the Messiah.
So, we will examine some of those features of the Millennium found in the Word, and this will be our measurement to know if we are indeed in the Messianic millennium.
Let’s start with Zechariah 14
Behold, the day of the Lord is coming; and your spoil shall be divided in your midst. For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem; the city shall be taken, the houses rifled, and the women raped. Half of the city shall go into captivity, but the remnant of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Then the Lord will go forth and fight against those nations, as He fights in the day of battle. And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives which faces Jerusalem on the east. And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two, from east to west, making a very large valley; half of the mountain shall move toward the north and half of it toward the south. Then you shall flee through My mountain valley, for the mountain valley shall reach to Azal. Yes, you shall flee as you fled from the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah.
Thus the Lord my God will come, and all the saints with You (talking about Yeshua the Messiah).
It shall come to pass in that day that there will be no light; the lights will diminish. It shall be one day which is known to the Lord—neither day nor night. But at evening time it shall happen that it will be light.
And in that day it shall be that living waters shall flow from Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and half of them toward the western sea; in both summer and winter it shall occur. And the LORD shall be King over all the earth. In that day it shall be – “The Lord is one,” (This is talking about the Shema proclamation) And His name one.
All the land shall be turned into a plain from Geba to Rimmon sought of Jerusalem. Jerusalem shall be raised up and inhabited in her place from Benjamin’s gate to the place of the first gate and the corner gate, and from the Tower of Hananel to the king’s winpresses.
The people shall dwell in it; and no longer shall there be utter destruction, but Jerusalem shall be safely inhabited. And this shall be the plague with which the LORD will strike all the people who fought against Jerusalem:
Their flesh shall dissolve while they stand on their feet, their eyes shall dissolve in their sockets, and their tongues shall dissolve in their mouths. It shall come to pass in that day that a great panic from the Lord will be among them. Everyone will seize the hand of his neighbor, and raise his hand against his neighbor’s hand; Judah also will fight at Jerusalem. And the wealth of all the nations shall be gathered together: gold, silver, and apparel in great abundance.
Such also shall be the plague on the horse and the mule, on the camel and the donkey, and on all the cattle that will be in those camps. So shall the plague be.
And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.
And it shall be that whichever of the families of the earth do not come up to Jerusalem to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, on them there shall be no rain. If the family of Egypt will not come up and enter in, they shall have no rain: they shall receive the plague with which the Lord strikes the nations who do not come up to keep the feast of Tabernacles.
This shall be the punishment of Egypt and the punishment of all the nations that do not come up to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.
In that day “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” shall be engraved on the bells of the horses. The pots in the Lord’s house shall be like the bowls before the altar. Yes, every pot in Jerusalem and Judah shall be holiness to the LORD of hosts, Everyone who sacrifices shall come and take them and cook in them. In that day there shall no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts.
I am going to end the program. Rico Cortes will sing the Aaronic blessing in Hebrew from Numbers 6:24-26.
If it is God’s will I will be here next program. Remember to walk by faith and not by sight. Do two things this week: love and forgive. Ask God to cleanse you from all unrighteousness every day. Keep your spiritual garments clean from wrinkles, spots and wrinkles. Love God, love your neighbor.
