Meeting at Saint Louis, June 22nd, 1964 addressed my brother Lundeen.
Everything Together Hymn #170.
Turn first to a few verses in Revelation 14.
The 1St 5 verses.
A. Revelation 14.
And I love to know the lamb stood on the Mount Zion and with him 140 and 4000, having his father's name written in their forehead.
And I heard the voice from heaven as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of the great Thunder. And I heard the voice of Harpers harping with their hearts.
And they started were a new song before the throne, before the four beasts and the elders. And no man could learn their song that song that the 140 and 4000 which were deemed from the earth.
These are they which were not defiled with women, so they are virgins. These are they which followed the land with his forever he goeth.
Being redeemed from among them being the first groups and the gardens of the land, and in their mouth was found no God, for there without fall.
The rest of the verse is really not enough.
We have in this passage.
The Spirit of God turns us back again, now to Israel. Some of you here have been reading in the Book of Revelation.
And you've seen how God is studying before us through the judgment of the present.
Testimony that has been abused by man. All those who rejected the present testimony will come under the awful judgment portrayed in the Book of Revelation.
But in this passage the Spirit of God is looking on to the end of that, and sees the same Lamb, the one who died and the One who is executing those judgments.
Now standing on the earth on Mount Zion, and there to bring his people back into blessing.
Israel will be blessed on the earth.
Now this picture is given us before the final judgment.
Because it isn't until the 19th chapter, Revelation, these things begin to take their place. But it's as though it was the spirit of God, we're saying I want you to see the picture now, before these awful judges.
It's always so in God's word. Remember when David?
Was called by God.
And he sat down before the Lord, and he showed him about his house for a long time to come.
00:05:06
How there would always be a man to sit on the throne and David's house forever.
And then David goes out and commits this sin of numbering the people, which was so grievous in God's type.
Well, God always gives us that bright picture. And even in our Christian lives, the first thing that God gives us is the place He's put us in. And then He allows us to see the pathway and the exercises and the excitations and so on. And so here we have a picture of Israel being brought back into blessing again, but it's because the lamb stands on Mount Zion. The Mount Zion is the city of grace.
It isn't that today, is it?
And God's thoughts it is. But as far as as the prophetic word tells us, it's called Now stop.
Because the sins of Jerusalem were the kind of sins.
Just like stop and DeMar, that required that the whole race be terminated.
Sobel Gomorrah was swept away. There's no trace of them.
And so in the very first chapter of Isaiah.
It says, except the Lord had left us a remnant, we would have been like Sodom and Gomorrah.
And now we have this remnant on Mount Dyer with the Lord. It's only because of His sovereignty. It's the Remedy affair, because their sin is like Sodom and Gomorrah.
Now, can you and I claim anything different?
Is it not because of sovereignty that you and I come into blessing? What is sovereignty? What does it mean?
Well, it means that you know the little story that is in the track.
This missionary was trying to explain it to the Navy. I believe that's the way it was.
They built a fire of leaves around the world.
And just as that worm was struggling and ready to give up in the heat.
Reads within and takes the word mouth.
Well, that was an illustration of sovereignty, except God himself has come in in his goodness. There wouldn't be one soul ever saved or delivered because we've all turned away. Everyone has turned his own way.
It isn't only we've gone Australia.
But these turns, that's the will everyone's own way.
Now Israel as a nation has turned to their own way and worship idols.
That God, Thomas Abraham, long ago, he was going to bless Israel.
And after their history is all over here, as far as men in the flesh are concerned, under responsibility, and just at the very moment when the overwhelming judgments come, and they will, all the nations of the earth will be gathered against Jerusalem.
Then the Lord reaches down and got us out this 144,000, and Jude and Benjamin, which we have here for blessing, because we're told of Zechariah 12 God shall save the 10th of June.
Well, with these thoughts in mind, then shall we turn to Zechariah, the book of Zechariah?
And we'll try to give an order.
Some of these prophecies in Zechariah because they are not all one prophecy, you know.
If you were to see the Book of Zechariah as it was written, you wouldn't see these chapters all numbered.
We just see a series of prophecies.
And we're told to rightly divide the word of truth, he saw you would have to sit down in the presence of God and seek to place them in the order that he intended.
Because.
We're we're told to divide, rightly divide, the word of truth. He doesn't say. It's all divided up for us.
No God will place them in a way where they'll take not only exercise of heart, but diligence to find the order that He is given for us.
And So what we'd like to take up tonight is that which takes place after.
The great tribulation was over when the Lord comes out of heaven to begin this work of setting up a Kingdom on the earth.
00:10:07
Now before I even set up His Kingdom on the earth, he will cleanse the earth.
And the very first thing he does is to see to it that Jerusalem is just for her sin. All you say has not Jerusalem and judged for sin well.
Whatever they said, his blood be on us and our children.
The Lord Jesus said, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do, So he forgave them. And then he sent Steven in the power of the Holy Spirit and gave them a new testimony after Christ had risen.
And they stole Stephen.
Now there's no excuse for Israel.
And so that judgment is still going to fall upon that nation. And you'll see it on the 79th stone, many other places. The awful judgment that will sweep that nation, yes.
Those who go back in unbelief will meet with the judgment of God.
And is today coming when the blood will flow like water in the streets of Jerusalem?
Those who go back in unbelief.
But now we'll read a little in the haunting chapter.
Of Isaiah.
This is the first thing that we can expect.
In connection with that day.
Zachariah, I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Behold, the day of the Lord cometh now that's the first thing. This is the day of the Lord.
The day of the Lord doesn't start until he comes out of heaven.
After all the tribulation is over, that is those tribulations which are really chasing, not direct judgment.
Direct judgment does not start until the Lamb appears himself. If the warrior king, that's the day of the Lord.
Now the first verse is, Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, and I spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee. For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city shall be taken from the houses rifles, and the women ravaged in half of the city shall go forth into captivity, and the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city. Then shall the Lord go forth and fight against those nations, is when he fought on the day of battle.
And his speech was standing that day upon the Mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives of Cleveland, the midst thereof, toward the east and toward the West.
And there should be a very great valley. Half of the mountains are removed toward the north and half the toward the South.
And ye shall plead to the valley of the mountains, for the valley of the mountains shall reach unto his veil. Yeah, you shall flee like as you fled from before the earthquake in the days of Isaiah, king of Judah. Now the rest of that verse is not blonde.
As the continuing of this verse, it comes later.
And so, having read now through the fifth verse part of it, we have a picture before us. So what will happen?
Awareness, the day of the Lord commanded.
There will be two attacks on Jerusalem by the Ethereum.
That is, during the day of the Lord. This is the first one.
The first one is successful.
And he will grind them into the streets, into the mire.
Gotta get the judgment on Jerusalem, the second judgment.
The second time that the Assyrian comes as the rod of Jehovah, he exalts himself against Jehovah.
And as he does so, the Lord smites him and delivers his people.
The first time he came as the rob, The second time he comes and he transgresses, he goes beyond and he's going to take possession now.
And so, in the passage we've read, is the first attack when it comes to the Rod of Jehovah. Now, the details of this could be read in the second chapter of Joel. We won't turn to it tonight, but there you'll see the details of the attack on Jerusalem.
In the 22nd chapter of Isaiah you will find also the details of the attack, but also the very ones who carry out the attack.
00:15:07
The expression of Syrian.
At this time, is an expression that includes all the nations.
Gathered together against Jerusalem.
The Assyria because the Assyrian is the one that had one, and Persia in fact.
The the nations of the 83rd Psalm are among these nations that make the attack.
Especially the last attack. But there's still they're still among them to make the first attack.
83rd summer. It's really the same attack in the same person with attacks both times.
It's really Russia that's back of it all. But Russia does not come to the front to the very last, That's all.
But all of the attack Damascus first, then Turkey, finally Russell. They're all under the power of Russia to get that in Daniel, the 8th chapter. They do not come down by their own power, they come down under the power of Russia.
Now there are only two great powers in the day when these prophecies will be fulfilled.
Let's remember first of all, tonight that you and I as Christians, will be called away to heaven before these things ever take place. We'll be safe at home in the Father's house. In fact, we'll come back with him when he rains.
In the interval there will be 7 years of tribulation.
Now the day of the Lord commences after those seven years are over.
After the days of tribulation are over, then these.
Actually see here of the enemy begin their definite attack by the enemy, but it's the rod of Jehovah in the day of the Lord.
The Lord allows it because the land has to be clear. Judgment is to be beaten out on all these nations that are in the land.
The 76th Psalm. It says he's terrible to the kings of the earth.
We can't turn to all these pastors that you can see because they're they're many that refer to this very same period. It's at this time that he destroys the kings of Palestine.
Not there, not the nations, but the kings and their armies who come up to the battlefield to attack.
You probably remember in reading in Revelation that there was a time at the very end in the 16th chapter during the last vials that.
The three unclean spirits went out to gather all the nations of the earth together with a great battle.
Of Armageddon. Well, this is this here. It's the time of the Gathering of all the nations.
To that battle, it's the first battle. There's another one later.
And so we see here that.
This attack.
On Jerusalem, not on the whole land, but on Jerusalem.
Because the Ethereum has already been through the land and desolated it for 3 1/2 years.
When the abomination was set up, as you noticed in Revelation, especially in Matthew's Gospel, that is when idolatry was set up in Jerusalem, God sends a desolator that's the Ethereum, and he's already desolated the land for 3 1/2 years.
As the scourge to go through the whole land.
But this is a specific attack on Jerusalem.
This is the center of the earth, and no nation holds Jerusalem.
Well, no one makes it whole, nor will anyone nation hold it. Hold it until the Lord Himself gives it to His people.
In the mean time, 1 nation after a level will try to take it.
But the Lord said I will overturn, overturn, overturn until he comes right against.
And he's the one who takes Jerusalem for the last time and ever again that any nation go through that land because when he gives the insulin to his people.
No foreigner will ever accept their foot there again.
And so we find that this time that the Lord goes forth and fights against those nations is when he fought in the day of battle.
00:20:06
Now every nation in the land of.
Judah.
Will meet with the judgment of God and nations around as well.
When God set up Israel as a nation, he set them in the midst of the nations like the sun, in the midst of a Galaxy of stars. And every one of those nations were to be subject to Israel.
When Israel went into captivity.
All those nations went into captivity.
In the 25th chapter of Isaiah, we're told that it is the day coming when you remove the coverings of all people.
What does that mean?
Well, it means today, if you want to look for an Edomite, you wouldn't know who they were.
If you want to look for a mobile Ammonite or any of those nations mentioned, they deserve dumb. You wouldn't know who they were. You searching Bay, The historians tell us that they they're extinct.
Each one will take their place and the last phase, the Lord will remove the coverings of each one, and they'll come forth as Edom, as Ammon, as boats, and so on, the Philistines, just like they were in the ancient days when Israel is a nation.
To be judged, Doesn't Luke tell us, behold the fig tree and all the trees?
In fact, there's a stir there now, and some have felt that that referred to the present day when the nations were stirred.
One wouldn't object to that, but it really refers in its full expense today, when all these nations will appear again, even under their own names in their own places. What for? So God can judge them? Oh no, so they can have the gospel of the Kingdom praise to them. Isn't that lovely?
Oh, what kind of a God we have.
And here you and I have the gospel preached to us now, not the gospel in here of the Kingdom. It's a kind of a gospel that lives with right up into the presence of God's children we believe in. Have you believed that gospel? You know the Lord Jesus Christ as your savior tonight?
Yeah, he's going to call all these nations back that were his enemies and the enemies of his people, so he can give them the gospel, the king.
How good God is. But remember, this is their last chance.
If they despise the gospel.
They are made with direct judgment that will send them straight to the pit.
Because it's the judgment of the living, and there'll be no great white throne for these.
There are two kind of judgments spoken out in several passages of Scripture. One is the first few verses of the 4th chapter of Second Timothy, the Judgment of the Living and the Judgment of the Death, and both of those are final judgment.
Peter speaks of it and his first epistle and third child 4th chapter.
It's also spoken of in the 10th chapter of.
Acts, I believe, the judgment of the living and the dead.
That is, if the final judgment.
But these nations will have the opportunity to hear the gospel of the Kingdom.
But as these nations attack, they have heard the gospel of the Kingdom already.
In our chapter tonight.
They will have already heard it and still are attacking Jerusalem.
Now we know from the 7th chapter Revelation that there will be myriads.
Out from among those nations that will have received the gospel of the Kingdom.
The Cosmos 7th chapter Revelation. We noticed that there are multitude that no man could number.
Different peoples in towns and nature.
We have received the gospel Kingdom and they're already seen as victorious and they're going to have a part in that Kingdom.
They're the very same ones that are mentioned in the 25th chapter of Matthew as the sheep, the contrast of the goats.
We have rejected that testimony and their judgment will be final.
When they stand before that judge, if they come open in open rebellion and attack him and he cuts them off, but later on as he steps up, he's thrown any of those who have rejected that.
00:25:07
Will be set away as ghosts into everlasting fire.
But a solemn day, this is them that we have before.
The fourth verse is speechless, standing that day upon the Mount of Olives.
Now this is a.
A little picture to us of how he will appear to his people, not to his enemies.
Note the difference.
New paragraph. In the third verse, she appears to his enemy and he fights against them.
But in the fourth verse, his speech will stand that day upon the Mother of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst. They're up toward the east and toward the West. In other words, as you look at the map of Palestine now, you'll see the Jordan River running from Mount Hermon all the way to the to the Dead Sea.
But that fee is possibly 1300 feet under sea level.
Now that whole plane will be lifted.
The Dead Sea will still be there, but the whole plane will be lifted and there will be a valley running from Jerusalem straight West to the Mediterranean Sea.
After this early flight.
And God will open the valley for his people, simply empty as the enemy comes against him.
He opens the valley and they all enter that valley, a place of space.
Oh, there will be a great demonstration in that day of the power of God.
And as far as his people are concerned, they'll see him on the mouth of Ollie.
Or you say, what scripture do you have for that, the first chapter of Acts?
This same Jesus was turned to us.
That one first ye men of Galilee, why stands you gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven shall so come.
In like manner, as you have seen him go into heaven, now did he go into heaven as a warrior king.
No.
Now he went as the man Jesus, but they knew all the time over here, but in resurrection life. And as he appeared through that little remnant in that day, he will appear to them, just as Axe tells us he will appear.
But he appeals to his enemies as the warrior king.
Now don't ask me to explain how it will be because I don't know if the jewel know that thing.
Remember when Stephen looked into heaven and he saw Jesus, What did he say to the man around him? He said. I see the Son of Man. Why? Because God always comes to his own people in grave, to his enemies in judgment.
Those who rejected judgment.
And so we have this beautiful little contrast here of how he's going to make himself known in that day to Judah. But just for a moment, because we're told, and Isaiah is going to hide himself. Why?
Repeat chapter of Isaiah. We're told that the full work is not performed in Mount Zion and the work can only be performed through faith.
Faith and faith is without sight, you know, natural sight. And so if he was there.
The faith couldn't have its perfect work in their heart.
The full work has to be performed. God is going to deliver his people in two ways.
He's going to actually, with an iron hand. He's going to destroy our enemies and stuff them back in their land. What else is he going to do?
My people shall be willing in the day of my power.
And there will be an interval after he stands in the Mount of Olives A1 month and 1/2.
When he will bring back the 10 drives he saved the 10th of June the 1St.
He brings it back, these 10 tribes.
And they go through the exercise of heart.
That you get in the sound from the Huntington Five on 207th. In fact, if you go back to Psalm 102, you'll get the creation and step by step you'll get in those terms the exercises of those souls as they back in their land before he actually comes, according to this verse, the last part of the fifth verse, when it says.
00:30:25
And the Lord my God should come. And all the Saints with me. That's the appearing, that's the manifestation. That's when he shows him his hands and his feet. It's the day of the.
And so there is a difference in connection with his coming.
Now we'll go on to another passage, the 11Th chapter. We're not going to go into all these verses because it would be better for us to get a little overall picture of it, and then we can meditate on it as we have the time. Now these are various prophecies, and we're trying to put them in the right order tonight so you can read them like a book, one after the other.
Now this 11 Chapters the same time as the 14th chapter.
Open our doors. All happening. Why? Because the Ethereum comes down from the north.
Lebanon can't help but open their doors.
He's marking them because they're going to be destroyed.
They're going to be destroyed. All the masters could be destroyed.
How old per trees? They don't howl when they're happy, do they?
Lebanon is that place of the exalted Cedars in the north of Palestine.
How for a tree? For the cedar is fallen because the mighty are spoiled. How low? Ye observation oaks refer to the strongest of trees. For the forest of vintage has come down. What's the forest of the vintage? Well, the vintage is the last judgement that God coming down. That's the interior.
Now the forest refers to his armies. Men are likened to trees in scripture. These are the armies of the Assyrians are sweeping in from the north. Coming in on the sides of the north, between the great high mountain peaks of Herman and so on, is the path They come down through that path. It's called the sides of the north.
Now you see in this chapter, two things we won't go into the detail. You'll see the author, destruction and judgment on the apostates of the Jews. At the same time, you have reference to the death of Christ.
Now what does this tell us in this chapter?
It tells us that the judgment of God must fall.
And marked it. It has fallen on the Lord Jesus for all those who received the Savior.
But it will fall on the individuals who reject it.
Will not be spelled and this chapter tells us that all roads.
Especially the shepherds in this chapter will be cut off with rejected the Messiah. And the very last verse gives this the Antichrist, the idol shepherd. He led the the apostate peoples against their Messiah for the last time.
What an awful judgment that will fall upon those who have rejected the Lord Jesus as king after they've heard the gospel of the Kingdom.
These are Jews, especially in this chapter.
And so we'll see you, Mr. in this chapter.
The 30 pieces of silver mentioned, the price of the children of Israel, weighed out for their master, for their Lord, their Messiah.
That was the estimate of Israel for their Messiah, the price of a common slave.
But remember, that's the price. That's the one who's the savior, and all who believe on Him have eternal life, and that's good for his little food.
But those who reject him, the judgment is coming out of the North. It's going to sweep them all away.
The details of it are in the 28th chapter of Isaac.
There's the details of the judgment upon Jerusalem.
As well as others that we've already mentioned tonight.
There's a little flash the poor I failed.
00:35:05
Pizza claw.
Of the slaughter the phosphates are destroyed, but the little and the little company, the little remnant will be preserved through this all this fire judgment.
How to preserve The Lord knows how to preserve His Dome.
And so you notice in the 17th verse wall to the idle shepherd that leaveth the flock. Now that's the Antichrist that in connection with the beast causes the whole world to worship the beast of Rome.
The sword should be part of his arm, that's his strength, and upon his right eye he'll have no discernment at all. His arms should be cleaned, dried up, and his right eye shall be utterly darkened.
And this man with the beast will be cast into hell alive.
When the Lord comes out of heaven.
It'll be at this time.
Now we have in the.
Going back to the 13th chapter again.
We have the second thing that occurred. The two scriptures we had occurred occur at these faint hearts.
Approximately. But here we have now something that follows immediately when the Lord sets his feet upon the Mount of Olives. In that day there should be a fountain open to the House of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for uncleanness.
As you tell the past in that days that the Lord of hosts that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered, and also I will cause the prophets from the unclean spirit that passed out of the land. Now we just read how the crop of the false prophet was destroyed and all the prophets then would be cut off out of the land, but the fire will be open for cleansing. Now this isn't this isn't the blood referred to. This is the word of God.
The blood you said before and the history of that is given from the seventh verse arm.
The sword is awakened against the shepherd. That's the cross of Christ. That's the basis of all blessing. But the founders opened for cleansing. It's the water. It's the word of God.
Because it's only in that day those who call upon the name of the Lord will be will be delivered.
And they Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. Now it's the same thing. Tonight, if you want to be saved, you believe God's word, what he says of his son. And you'll be saved, he says, barely, barely, I say unto you.
He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, shall not come into judgment, but his past from death unto life.
So we have them they found open for cleansing in this 13th chapter of Zechariah.
The property cut off.
Those who have a new nature will take sides against their children or their parents or whatever it is, because Jehovah alone will be exalted that day, and all those who told Jehovah, regardless of earthly ties, will be cut off.
And they'll be betrayed by their own kinsmen if they're serving idols, because idols will be completely abolished out of that land. But a glorious day that will be when this earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord. Here's the beginning of it.
Now we have another chapter, the 10th chapter, that refers to the same period.
Now they're beginning to pray to Jehovah, ask you the Lord reign in the time of the latter rain.
So the Lord shall make bright clouds or lightnings, and give them showers of rain to everyone grass in the field.
But the idols have spoken vanity, and the Viners have seen a lie, told false dreams. They comfort in vain. Therefore they went. They went their way as a flock. They were troubled because there was no shepherd. This is after the idle shepherd has been slain.
My nag was killed against the shepherd, and I punished the girls, for the Lord of Hosts have visited his flock, the House of Judah, and have made them his goodly horse In the battle. Out of him came forth the corner, out of him the nail, Out of him the battle bow, Out of him every oppressor together.
00:40:04
Don't you see that the Lord is blessing the land? He's sending the rain again. He's delivered his people.
In the sense that he's he's appeared to them in Mount Zion and never again and you're the enemy go through that land. Now we see that in the 9th chapter, which gives us the next picture.
We'll start reading from the.
Well, perhaps we should read a little in the 8th chapter first. Just a few verses to get the thought.
Third verse Thus that the Lord, I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem, and Jerusalem should be called the city of truth.
This is after he has met the enemy. He fought against those nations.
And the mountain of the Lord of hosts, the holy mountain. Thus that the Lord of hosts there shall yet old men and old women dwell on the streets of Jerusalem. Every man with his staff in his hand for very age on the streets of the city, shall be full of boys and girls playing in the streets there.
You know, there's there's a verse in the Bible that speaks of a boy and a girl that's in Joel. It's the only verse I know of. This verse speaks of boys and girls.
Now that verse in Joel, it speaks of a boy and a girl. It's individual and they're going to be sold under sin of that. That is, it doesn't use those words, but it shows how they were sold.
Understand.
Now every boy and girl as well as every older person are sold under sin and they have to have a faith.
And so the Lord Jesus is the Savior and every boy and girl that receives the Lord Jesus Christ.
As Savior, we'll have this same result as we have in this chapter. They won't be alone anymore, but they'll have company in blessing on the earth. And that day, the Jewish children were blessed. The streets will be full of children.
Playing in the streets, there are boys and girls who receive. The Lord Jesus Christ and Savior today will be in heaven with the Lord Jesus forever.
But here's a picture of the land when the Lord Jesus begins to bless it.
And it's a marvelous thing. Six verse death.
Thus that the Lord of hosts, if it be marvelous in the eyes of the remittance people in these days, should it also be marvelous in mine eyes that the Lord of hosts, that's that the Lord of Hosts, Behold, I will save my people from the E country and from the West Country. Now we have the 10 tribes begin to come back.
Go to save his people from all these lands to which they've been scattered. The Jews have already come back.
Most of us he saves the 10th of June to further.
Now we'll refer to the few things in the third in the ninth chapter.
1St we have Damascus men.
Then we have Tyrus mentioned, and then we have the Philistines make. Now why are these three nations mentioned here at this very moment in this connection?
Simply because these three nations are within the bounds that God gave to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob.
Back in the 15th chapter of Genesis, God gave the land to Abraham and his son, his family forever.
Now all these nations came into this land and took possession. The Syrians were always the thorn, as it were in the flesh of Israel. The Syrians. Not the Assyrians, but the Syrians Damascus.
The fellows dying were the enemy's next ride in with them.
Which caused him trouble all her day.
Pirates of the Merchant City that brought in the corruption that the Merchant City always does. The principles of copper mine which led them into idolatry.
Now these three nations will be eradicated from the land completely. There will be no remnant of the Philistines.
Nor will there be any remnants of of the basket.
00:45:02
Now the Tyrus is on the northern border, and there probably will be. They'll probably be pushed back out of the way.
But they will not be allowed in the land because the land will be thoroughly planned at this time so that we can bring back the 12 tribes.
And if you if you notice the knives there, you will see that they ask the question, that is, it's prophetic, of course.
Who has brought up these? Where do they come from?
As they start streaming into the land, while they say the place is too straightforward, is not room. Give us room. So, he says, spread out clearly your phrase, it's all yours, It's all yours.
A nation will be born in a day.
God is going to bring these people back from the land of Sinem. That's China. You bring them for mysterious from Egypt.
He'll dry up to seven streams at the head of the river of Egypt so that people can crash Crossover.
He's going to make a highway in that day so his people can come back and all that long trek, as they come back across the desert sands, their shoes won't wear out.
If they need water, he'll open the fountains of water like he did before.
Those people who have water read it in the 103rd to 107th Psalm and see if it is expelled. It's all prophetic there.
As they go back over their history and they see the marvelous works of Jehovah, faith may hold up. And he said it's going to be again, and they'll witness the very same things again.
And in Hosea says they'll sing with them the days of their youth. That's the answer of Jehovah.
The Sovereign mostly to his people who did not deserve them. Now, beloved, you and I deserve what we have received.
Israel is going to praise the Lord of that day like they never praised him before.
Do we praise the Lord? Do we manifest it in our way? Is there any response from these four hearts of ours? We don't have the portion of Israel. We don't have the green grass of the field, like there. We'll have the Father's house.
Will be with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ, forever and ever. That's the portion of those who own Jesus Christ today as their Savior.
Good evening. And so we have that in this 9th chapter the burden of the word of the Lord and the Lamb of Heydrich, and Damascus shall be the rest thereof, the burden of the judgment. And that'll be the rest for Israel when Damascus is cut off.
Shall be the rest there when the eyes of man is of all the tribes of Israel, shall be toward the Lord.
This is a new thing. The eyes of Israel is not terrible art today, but they will indeed the whole 12 drives. What a glorious day that will be. Think of the day when the Lord Jesus is exalted in every eye would be a problem in that day and Lord of Lords.
Amos shall be the border thereby if the old original border of Israel.
Tyrus is driving, though it'd be very wise. The tires could build himself a stronghold and heaped up silver as the dusk and fine gold as the mire the streets. Beholden would cast her out and he was smiter power in the sea.
Maritime Nation she shall be devoured with fire. Fire is judgment.
Ascalon, that's the Philistines shall see it in fear. Gaze them also. Philistine shall see it, and it be very and be very sorrowful. Ecron.
And her expectation shall be ashamed, and the king shall perish from Gaza, and ask alarms shall not be inhabited. That is it will. They'll be driven out, and a ******* shall dwell in Ashdown. And they'll cut off the pride of the Philistines. Now I'll take away his blood out of his mouth, and his abominations between his teeth.
He that remaineth even he shall be for our God, and he shall be as the governor in Judah and Akron, as a Jebusite. That is, God will spare individuals, but there won't be any nation of the Philistines anymore.
And now notice this lady first. It's rather a key verse because it makes us with.
Other passages that we might have an opportunity to notice on another occasion.
I will encamp about my house because of the army. Now this is Jehovah who is saying this.
He he's not showing himself to his people. They've seen him for the moment, but he's hiding himself. But now he's in camping about his house. That's Judah. That's Zion.
00:50:11
Because of the army, Yeah, that's the Assyrians swept down through.
Because of him that passes by and because of him the return of before the 2nd and last attack.
The second and last attack.
And no pressure shall pass through them anymore. For now I've seen with my night as Jehovah comes down and sets his feet on the Mount of Olives, no enemy will ever pass through that land again.
Only I'll attack. In fact, they'll go back and reinforce their forces, because if you turn to Isaiah 27, you'll see the conclusion what has happened.
It would be nice to go into all of these scriptures, but of course the cabin 2 evening.
The 12Th verse.
And it shall come to pass in that day.
The same day that the Lord should beat off from the channel of the river.
As to the stream of region, now, the town of the river is the Euphrates River, and that's the eastern borders of the land of Palestine.
The river of Egypt is the Little River that's just at the curve. If you'll notice on the Mediterranean, it's the southern border of Israel. It's not the Nile River.
It's a little scream that's dry most of the time, but it's called the River of Egypt. It's mentioned first in connection with the promised Abraham.
You can look it up in your map when you get home, you'll see it's the southern border of the land. And this expression from the channel of the river to the stream of Egypt means that it's the whole land of Palestine that God gave to Abraham that the Lord now will sweep away all the enemy. In fact, if you turn to the 24th of Isaiah, which we wouldn't have time tonight.
You'll see that the land shall be utterly empty.
It's hard for us to concede that. The whole land.
Perhaps a little bigger than the original Russia.
Not the Soviet empire, but the original Russian country of Russia.
That will be subtly clear that all is inhabited.
So the children of Israel can stream back and take possession.
That's what Jehovah will do when he comes back and sets his feet on a lot of olives.
Oh, what a glorious day that would be. But beloved, where would you be? There. Have you thought of it? You'll be with him. You'll be right where he started.
If you're right beside it.
Now he won't show you off to the world yet. We'll do it later, after the last enemy's destroyed, many children's people's hands on his feet and the identify the lowly Jesus.
With the one who is their Messiah.
They identify the two together as a whole nation, I mean, and then the spirit is poured out in the covenant.
But now you see just the living Judah. He set his feet on the Mount of Olives. And what we've had tonight is the deliverance of Judah and Benjamin and the setting up of the Kingdom. Not the founding of a jet. It's the setting up of the Kingdom.
In a word, this way David reigned before Solomon. He was the warrior king, and he said everything in order. As soon as he was in order, then Solomon took the rolling range of peace. What he's had tonight is the beginning of the reign of David, the son of David, who's going to spread everything right. It's the regeneration. The beginning of that regeneration was spoken of in the 19th chapter of that.
The generation of all things. It will end at the end of the molest frame.
This is the beginning of it.
Everything. That little hymn.
141.
00:55:06
In deep eternal counsel, before the world is made, before its deep foundations, on nothing is relayed.
God purposed us for blessing and chose us, any son to him, to be conformant when here our course was run.
If someone can start it for us.
Where are you?
Glory.
Come on, man. See.
You have a.
And glory upon the dream.
Will still come in God.
For rain and come again and we.
Are going to do.
I wanna see his blood breakdown.
