The TWO Faithful Witnesses

Rev.11:3-6, Zech. 4:2-6

Throughout the Word of God we encounter a combination of TWO powerful “symbols”. These two symbols/elements or characters to be more accurate, will always be present when The LORD is doing a Great Work (Miracle).

The two faithful witnesses are always evident wherever and whenever there is a significant work, they may work in unison or be seemingly independent at various times. However the symbols of them both are quite obvious as they will Always work together. Our first glimpse of them are revealed, like most everything else, in Genesis (Beginnings).

God “SPOKE”, that is the “WORD” went forth; Genesis 1:2…; “Darkness was upon the face of the deep, and “The Spirit” of God was hovering over the face of the waters“. Here at the very beginning we catch a glimpse of these key characters the WORD and the SPIRIT. As I will try to lay out, these two are always working together, and they both have unique symbols prevalent throughout scripture. A glimpse of the symbolisms we find in the encounters between the LORD GOD and the patriarchs, Heroes of our Faith. Abraham, Isaac, Jacob (Israel), and Moses. When God was ready to enter into His “Covenant” with Abraham, The Lord, passed thru the pieces of the “cutting” as a flame a fire. For Isaac; in chapter 26 it talks about the “wells” being dug (water) and building an altar (fire). Then Jacob in chapter 28 has a dream upon a “rock” of heavens messengers on a ladder and The LORD Himself at the Top, Jacob in the morning set up a “pillar” and poured oil (Spirit) upon it. Later (ch.32) Jacob (Israel) has an encounter at the Jabbok River (water) which literally means “poured out/forth”. From Genesis we move to Exodus to encounter Moses. (Gen. 15, 26, 28, 32)

Moses means drawn out or from the water, he also encountered God as a fire a Flame in a burning bush. Led by a “pillar” of fire, and a “pillar” of cloud (water). With a “staff” he Parted The Red Sea (water) while protected from pharaoh’s army with the “pillar” of fire/cloud. With the staff he brought “water” from a “rock” .The Word and the Spirit, symbolized as Fire and Water. (Ex. 2-4, 17)

Moses’s symbols; water, Staff, Word.

Fire, Oil, Water

Moving further into The Prophets we encounter Elijah.

Elijah means my God is Lord (YeH…YHWH). he called fire down upon Mt. Carmel, prayed earnestly for rain (water). At the widow’s house the “oil” and the “flour” did not run out. Parted The Jordan River (water) and taken up in a chariot of fire. The WORD and The Spirit symbolized as Water and Fire; Oil and Flour. (1 Ki. 17-2 Ki. 2)

Elijah’s symbols; fire, Mantle, Spirit .

On Mount Hermon at Caesarea Philippi Jesus took three of His disciples, Peter, James and John and in their midst The Lord was “Transfigured” into His pre-existing Glory and with Him appeared Moses and Elijah (Mt. 17:1,2 Mk. 9:2, Lk. 9:29,30).

Moses and Elijah

Moses represents The LAW or Old Covenant (WORD) a Staff; to shepherd, to guide, a standard. And Elijah/John the Baptist represents Grace or New Covenant (SPIRIT) a Mantle; like oil it covers and spreads over. Both established by BLOOD of The Lamb.

There are; Two trees, Two Lampstands, “Two Faithful Witnesses“, Two covenants establishing God’s Rule and Authority in the earth. As Jew and Gentile begin to work in unity bringing once again together the Word and the Spirit a miraculous and mighty event is soon to take place. As mentioned in creation the Word and the Spirit formed all that we see. When Jesus Messiah (Word made flesh) was baptized in water by John aka Elijah, the (Spirit) descended like a dove and rested upon (anointed) Him; The Spirt and The Word straight way began a mighty work as they went to meet the strong man (Satan) on his territory (mount of Temptation) to bind him (overcome) and begin the “anointed” work of redemption. (Mt. 3,4; Mk. 1; Lk. 4; Jn. 1)

So when we “hear” the WORD (Jesus) the Water, preached, we “see” it confirmed with signs and wonders OIL /Anointing (Spirit) Fire.

In the sanctuary or Tabernacle “Tent of Meeting” there was always Fire (altar) and Water (basin) and in the Holy place we have Bread (WORD) and Oil (SPIRIT) always present before (Throne/Mercy Seat) His Majestic Glory, HIS PRESENCE.

In The Revelation of Jesus Christ, Ch. 22 it declares “The Spirit and The Bride say come”. The Bride is His Body in the earth, the church. It is the “bread” or the WORD made flesh. Just as in the Tabernacle, when the Spirit and the Word are united, His Presence and appearing are manifest and His GLORY Shines forth.

So whether The Two Faithful Witnesses – The Two Olive Trees – The Two Lampstands are Moses and Elijah, or The Old and New Covenants (Law/Grace). One thing we can be sure of that His Word the water of which washes us, and His Spirit the fire of which anoints us Will most surely be a PREVALANT POWER in these Last Days.

Contentment

Proverbs 30

:7 Two things I ask of You, O Lord; do not refuse me before I die;

:8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me; neither give me poverty nor riches, but give me my daily bread.

:9 Otherwise, I may have too much and disown You and say, Who is the Lord? Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the Name of the my God.

A spirit of contentment to satisfy the souls. As the apostle Paul stated I have learned to live “with” and I have learned to live “without”. May You and You alone O Lord be More than Enough to satisfy, ALL our wants, needs, and desires.

A Course is Set

Proverbs 29

:2 When the “righteous” thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule the people groan.

:4 By “justice” a king gives a country stability, but one who is greedy for bribes tears it down.

To do what is “right and just” sets the course for a people, a nation. As America approaches an election, this TRUTH could not be more apparent. We as a nation have turned from “righteousness” and have exalted wickedness. We have put in elected officials that are greedy for bribes. Oh that we would “see” with our eyes and “hear” Wisdom crying out in the streets. We must preserve LIBERTY for our children and our children’s children. We MUST have The Law and we MUST have DISCIPLINE.

Hidden Glory

Proverbs 25:2 NIV

“It is the Glory of GOD to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.”

The Lord has hidden in creation as well as in His Word, amazing treasures of His character, his plan, and His Ways. The more we look for and seek after those treasures as the joy of our heart. We find GREAT blessing and reward to satisfy our thirsty souls. We are changed from glory to Glory.

A Devilish Plan A Spiritual/Carnal War

Read Proverbs 24:5,6,10

Defund The Police!

Abolish ICE!

Tear Down The Heritage/History of The Country!

Promise Free Healthcare to ILLEGAL foreigners and youth!

Promise Free Education to ILLEGAL foreigners and youth!

Sounds like a Train wreck more than a Golden path of Enlightenment to Bliss, in my simple yet carefully observant perspective.

The streets of California are over flowing with Homeless people, drug needles, condoms and out right filth. Some of these people have mental disease, others are so strung out on drugs they cannot even comprehend up, down or sideways, there are those that simply are willing to live that way for the free hand out from the liberal political “kind hearted” crooks, then there are legitimate citizens that have fallen on hard times due to a loss of jobs; probably due to excessive taxing of businesses. The leftists solution; free drugs, free “camping” its not called vagrancy or loitering any longer, open urination and defecation, as well public sex and nudity. The elites of the state and the government of the state says its because of GREED. I might agree with that statement, but lets look beneath the surface to correctly identify The GREEDY ONES.

This is one of if not THE highest taxed states in the union, yet we have an epidemic of failure on every level. The solution from the LEFT is always “More Money”, have you ever stopped to look at the wealth that these political protagonists are amassing, and not one of their “social” platforms has improved, not ONE. We are always told in this state about water shortages, and water consumption, yet these same flap traps open up the “sanctuary” state to countless hordes promising them everything just for a vote. They line the pockets of family and friends, propitiate the problem and blame business owners that are the only ones providing an opportunity for work (jobs) and maybe just maybe a chance to better a hard working persons own way of life. I am sorry but since when does the fact that if you are FORTUNATE enough to have a job that you work 40 hours a week, automatically qualify you for the ability to live on your own? Let alone provide for a household? There are entry level jobs in the market place for young people or even some elderly that may want to supplement their retirement, that are being eliminated due to the antagonistic pressure of this ideology of a socialist economy.

It appears to me that it no longer is even about socialism, these GREEDY, power hungry, non-representative, bureaucratic masters of double talk and deception are only after ONE thing and ONE THING only. That goal is to eliminate the middle class, enslave the masses, all the while taking for themselves the best of areas to live, the best of the food supply, drive and fly wherever they desire whilst the rest of humanity can grovel and crawl and beg at their feet for scraps.

Make NO mistake about his claim. I am an ideolog too; I believe whole heartedly in the God of The Bible. In His Son Jesus Christ and the salvation through Him. I believe in Freedom and Liberty as specified in Our Founding documents. I swore an Oath upon death to defend those principles for other peoples rights. How much more tenacious would you think me to be when it comes to the protection and security of MY own family and friends. I PRAY for those whose eyes have been blinded, and even those that have turned to evil in their hearts and minds, against All that is called GOOD.

I am

This Election MUCH is at Stake…VOTE!!!

Follow The Way

Proverbs 23: 23 Buy the Truth and do not sell it, get Wisdom, Discipline and Understanding.

To be a disciple or Follower of The Way, is to Seek not the wise men but rather That which The wise men Sought. The King of Kings and Lord of Lords. We are to Share the Gospel with everyone, not “sell it” it is a FREE gift unto man. Draw near to God and He shall draw near to you, the closer we get to Him the better we See and Know Him.

I know a Place

Psalms 119:169-176

TAV: #22; sign, cross, covenant, join two things together, seal, last

V 169. May my cry come before You, O LORD; give me understanding according to Your Word.

V 174. I long for Your Salvation, O LORD and Your Law is my delight.

V 176. I have strayed like a Lost Sheep. Seek your servant, for I have not forgotten Your Commands.

At the Cross of Christ Jesus. The Covenant in His Blood. Heaven met earth. The Lost are Found. He brings together Jew and Gentile, Sealed with the Promised Holy Spirit, The Aleph and the Tav, the first and the last. The Author and perfecter of Our Faith.

The Word became flesh and made His Dwelling among us. We have seen His Glory, The Glory of The Father, Full of Grace and Truth . (Jn 1:14 NIV)

O How I Love You LORD, and Your Word is the JOY of My Heart.

FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.

In Him will I Put My Name…

Psalms 119:161-168

Sin/Shin: 300; Teeth, devour, consume (Hidden name El Shaddai)

V162. I rejoice in Your Promise like one who finds great spoil.

V164. Seven times a day I praise You, for Your Righteous Laws.

V165. Great peace have they who Love Your Law, and NOTHING can make them stumble.

HaShem, is the NAME, and as Noah’s son Shem received the crown of blessing for the source of The blessing is in His Name. His Name and His Word are one and the same. Therefore we find Great joy! The richest of treasures are discovered in His Word for it reveals Who is in The Name. To KNOW HIM and to be known by Him, to make Him known in the earth.

Holy Spirit of The Living God (YHWH, Yeshua Ha Mashiach; The Word and The Name) may we be consumed by Your Presence and Righteousness. May the Peace that passes All understanding keep our hearts and minds focused on You alone.

A Suffering – Servant/King

Psalms 119:153-160

Resh (Reysh): #200; head, chief, most important…person

V153. Look upon My Suffering and deliver me, for I have not forgotten Your Law.

V154. Defend my cause and Redeem me, Preserve my life according to Your promise.

V157. Many are the foes who Persecute me, but I have not turned from Your Statutes.

V160. All Your Words are TRUE; all Your Righteous Laws are Eternal.

The greatest among you will be your servant“. Mt. 23:11.

To be a chief in in Kingdom of God, one must know how to be a humble and lowly servant. The example set forth by The Lord Jesus Christ was that of a servant. He who who framed the fabric of the universe, served in humility his own creation. The Greatest among us IS the One that was obedient and redeemed us and set us FREE. Should we not then live by that example.

A Desperate Cry

Psalms 119: 145-152

Qoph: #100; The back of the head, least, last, final

Q

V 145. I call with All my heart; answer me O LORD, and I will obey Your decrees

V 146. I call out to You; Save me and I will keep Your statutes.

V 147. I rise before dawn and cry for help; I have put my Hope in your Word

V 152. Long ago I learned from your statutes that You established them to Last Forever.

The End, that which is Final, The last of something, is usually the beginning of something anew. Jesus (Yeshua) cried out from the cross “It is Finished”. But it wasn’t the End, no the Church was birthed 50 days later. The Church Age, may be coming to a close; that does not mean it is All over, it is only the Beginning of Eternity. While dispensations may continue on earth, all creation is longing for the revelation of the Sons of God, to be redeemed from the curse. A day of reckoning is approaching. As we wait that blessed day we find ourselves in conflict, as in labor pains. We The Church Must Cry out In sincere Desperation, in the fulness of this Time, for He alone is Our Hope and Our Salvation.
