Echoes of Israel - Part 6 "Divine Leadership" Pastor. Shane Vaughn - Zoom Bible Study 4/12/25

* I've been teaching a series called the echoes of Israel. This, I believe, is week five of that series. And we're going to continue with the echoes of Israel. For those that are just joining us for the first time, that do not know what I mean by the echoes of Israel. Basically, everything in the Bible repeats itself. * We have a saying around here, the more things change, the more they stay the same. All right? Ancient Israel is our forefathers. There are great lessons to be learned from ancient Israel. So who are we? Those of you watching me today, we are the progenitors or the descendants of ancient Israel. We call ourselves endtime Israel. * Just like ancient Israel had an exodus where they left Egypt, they left the churches that they were trapped in. They left the lies of religion. They left uh the worship of false gods and they left. That's called an exodus. Well, the Bible tells us that in the last days, just before the coming of the Lord, there would be another replay of that same event, another exodus of an endtime Israel that was leaving Egypt. * Now, therefore, that is a parallel. So we call ourselves a parallel people. Meaning what ancient Israel did should be a pattern that is repeating and duplicating itself in end time Israel. Also, there was some things in that pattern that was not good that we are to overcome in the end time and not repeat those mistakes. We have a warning from the apostle Paul to be careful that we don't make the same mistakes that our forefathers made because if we do, we will not enter into the kingdom of Yahweh. * For my first time viewers today, when we say Yahweh, that is the name of the God that you worship. That's his name. I'm sorry that the church never taught you his name and they have forgotten his name, but at First Harvest Ministries, we are restoring that name. Now, with all of that background laid, we're going to open our Bibles today. * And I believe I'll have Elder King read since Elder Morgan is still a little under the weather. And we're going to go to the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 10 verse 1 through verse 11. This is our continuing text in this series. In this series, this is the text that is the continuing text in every class. 1 Corinthians 10 1-11. * Now, before she reads, what we're doing in this series is testing ourselves as a modernday Exodus movement against our ancestors. Put that in your mind. Today's lesson continues a test to see how we are doing how we are identifying with ancient Israel in the good things and how we are disassociating from ancient Israel in the bad things. This is a test. * Yahweh gave me this series as a test for you to take as we read these scriptures today. It is your duty to see the parallel people to see yourself. How are you lining up following the pattern of ancient Israel? We're hearing warning echoes from the wilderness. How closely are we aligned to what they did right? And are we moving away from what they did wrong? We're going to evaluate many things today in this lesson. * We're going to take a peek into how they did ministry to see if First Harvest is doing ministry the same way. We're going to look at their strengths, their failures, and let those lessons be examples for endtime Israel in the Exodus movement. Let's read one Corinthians 10 verse one. Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud. All passed through the sea. * All were baptized into Moses, into the cloud, and into the sea. All ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank of that spiritual rock that followed, and that rock was anointed. But with most of them Yahweh was not well pleased, for their bodies were scattered in the wilderness. * Now these things became our examples to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted. And do not become idolattors as they were. Of them as it is written, the people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play. Nor let us commit sexual immorality as some of them did. And in that day 23,000 fell, nor let us tempt Yah, as some of them also were tempted, and were destroyed by serpents. * Nor complain as some of them also complained and were destroyed by the destroyer. Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition upon whom the ends of the age ages have come as a warning. Amen. Have you ever wondered why Yahweh was so detailed in the story of ancient Israel? Starting with Genesis 12 with Abraham all the way through, we have so much information about Israel. * Well, Paul just gave you the answer. Why did God Yahweh allow them to wonder? I mean, why did he allow the earth to open up and take Kora? Why all of these things? Paul tells you, he makes it very plain. This was all allowed to happen not for them but for us upon whom the ends of the age has come. Now if that's true then we should be studying these people should we not? Are they not our uh uh compass? Are they not our our our they should be our subject that we study night and day because they are our example of what to do and what not to do. Now there was * some things about ancient Israel that we need to take note of. They were the chosen people of Yahweh. Today they still are. What was a few things that they had that we need to have in our ministry if we're going to be a parallel people? The first thing we're going to discuss today, there's going to be many. * Number one, Israel had divine leadership. They had a guiding pillar. They were never, listen to me carefully, they were never confused about which way to go or which way to turn. There was never confusion as to the will of Yahweh for them. When you land in an endtime Israelite ministry, there will be no confusion as to the divine leadership in the ministry. * Let's read about that. We're going to turn to the book of Exodus, chapter 13, verse 21 through 22. And this is what must be in ancient Israel. Exodus 13 21-22. Everyone, please turn there in your Bible. Never believe anything I teach unless you read it with your eyes. Amen. Read, Elder. And Yahweh went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light so as to go by day and night. * He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day or the pillar of fire by night from before the people. They had divine leadership. Meaning what? There were no committee meetings. There was no wondering what do we do? There was a clear direction and it came supernaturally. It led them in the way they should go. * Let's turn to Nehemiah chapter 9 verse 12. And what we need to understand is Yahweh went before them in a pillar of cloud and a pillar of fire. The first ex the first Exodus movement did not begin with a sword. It began with a sign. I want you to hear that the Exodus movement didn't begin with a sword. They did not leave by sword. * They left by a supernatural sign. And by night in a pillar of fire, Yahweh's visible symbol of divine leadership, that hovering chariot of glory, rested when they rested and moved when they moved. So, what you're going to find in a true Israelite ministry, you're going to find a that you're going to find a rushing when it's time to rush and a resting when it's time to rest. * Listen saints, nobody, listen carefully, had a plan. Nobody had a plan. When that cloud began to rustle, that pillar of fire be to ignite, it was time to move in that moment. There was no sitting around knowing what they were going to do tomorrow, knowing what they were going to do six months down the road. There were no strategy sessions. * There was divine rustling of the malberry bushes. There was a divine going and coming. There was a pull and a sway of the moment. One thing Mother Ruth Heftlin taught me was how to move in the glory of the moment. So many of you with carnal minds get frustrated when I don't tell you what we're doing next. * Do you not know by now? Many times I don't know what we're doing next. I am waiting for the rustling of the mberry bush. I am waiting literally for that glory cloud to move and I follow it and you follow me. And we simply go with the moving. For those of you that are not ready for that, you may not be a true Israelite. * One thing you need to test yourself. Do you get frustrated by the unknowing? Oh, help me, Holy Ghost. You're in a different ministry, children. There is no sixmonth plan here except for the feast days. We move with clear direction. And that's why everything we've ever done in the last four years looks like total chaos when we start and total perfection when it ends. Amen. * Pastor, come on. I wish somebody would hear me this morning. Oh, amen. That's so true. Thank you, pastor. Divine leadership begins when Elder when Elder Rickman starts building a a training center that he never planned to build and his wife didn't plan it and he didn't even have the money really for it. * But the Holy Ghost said start building and the man started building and when he was done what looked like chaos became coordinated perfection. Why? That's called divine leadership. When you have divine leadership, you move in the moment. I'll never forget Sister Ruth Heft was preaching for me in New Orleans. And I'll never forget when she looked over at Sister Ruth Carneal, I believe, or one of the sisters and said, "I believe we must go to uh China Wednesday. * " Uh, nobody was planning on going to China Wednesday. You understand? That's how this woman lived. That's how she lived. And never, she she told me, she said, "In all my years of ministry, I've never left home with anything more than a one-way ticket with no money to get back." Hallelujah. * I'm trying to elevate your thinking to get out of this Babylonian way of thinking of the churches you came out of. You are under a total different deal. Now, darling, we have divine leadership that that shows us the way minute by minute, second by second, day by day. and we follow that momentary glory. Now, I know that goes against your human nature, but we never let it go against your Israelite nature. * I don't see the Su family here today. I pray that there. Oh, yes, I do. Never mind. Amen. Let's read in the book of Nehemiah 9:12. Moreover, you led them by day with a cloudy pillar, and by night with a pillar of fire, to give them light on the road which they should travel. Now, I can see them coming up to Moses saying, uh, brother Moses, what's our plans tomorrow? And Moses said, we're going to sit here and watch that cloud. * That's what we're going to do. Well, does the ministry have a a three-year goal? No. No, we don't. What's our fiveyear uh plan? Uh you mean five minute plan? We wait for that cloud to move and that's when we know what we're doing next. For example, two days ago, in the back of my mind, in the back of my mind, I've been waiting for Yahweh to open up the television market for me. * I've tried for four years to find marketing companies that would send our message to all the television channels. And Yahweh would never let me move forward. never let me move forward. Two days ago, I get an inbox message from Sister Linda Gibson Johnson and says to me, "I know a man that you need to know. * " And here's his information. Two days later, I announced all the television channels that we're now on. Just that fast. Just that fast. Never planned it. Never try look why we are following a cloud. We move when it moves. We stop when it stops because to do anything else brings you back to Babylon. Israel waits on the Lord. And that's not always easy. * I'll be the first to admit it. I sort of like a few days notice as well. But unfortunately, when you come into the Israelite mentality, you come into a cloud mentality and a fire mentality. And Yahweh gives us divine leadership. That cloud showed them when to stop. It told them when to go. And wherever it moved, they didn't question. * They didn't wonder. They followed. And in every generation, in every denomination, there is a people, listen carefully, that recognizes when the glory has departed from whatever church they were stuck in and they still chase the cloud. Amen. Do I have any cloud chasers here today? Amen. Hallelujah. Amen. Hallelujah. Amen. Follow. * And brothers and sisters, when you follow the cloud, be ready to lose all your control. I I want you to imagine with me, just imagine if you will, being an Israelite in ancient Israel with a pastor like Moses that never knew from one day to the next what he was doing. I'm just going to let that hang for a minute. * That's all. Everybody wants Moses for a pastor. Moses didn't even know where water was coming from. takes faith. He didn't know he was waiting on a cloud. Kept him from lying. Say it again, Elder. Kept him from lying to the people. Thank you. That's why I never give any plans to the people because I don't want to be called lying. * I don't have any plans. Amen. I've got one plan. When that cloud moves quickly, I call all the saints together. Say, "All right, we got two weeks. Let's build a barn. Let's get it ready for the people. Two weeks. Two weeks. Two weeks. Two weeks. Oh, and we got to lay all the concrete. Build all the building. And we got to Oh, pastor. * Pastor, it cannot happen. Pastor. And I'm like, oh, it will. It will. It will. And it did. It did. Why? We're under a cloud. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. We come running. We come running when the cloud starts moving. But notice after the cloud was done, they rested. Right now at First Harvest headquarters, our ministry is resting. * And it may be that you may not they may not hear from me for months now. Why? Nothing's wrestling in my spirit. And brothers and sisters, let me give you an example. I want to give you a prime example. Right now, Elder Morgan is in Pigeon Forge. He went there because I worked him to death and he went on a little vacation to get away from me to run from my phone calls. * Hallelujah. There's no hiding place. Hallelujah. And uh soon as he gets there, I tell him, "Look, gather all the people up and have church this Saturday." Hallelujah. And there they are. Why? He moved with the cloud. He started calling the people, "Let's let's do it. Let's do it." Why? That is a true Israelite ministry. * In every generation, Yahweh's remnant people are guided by divine leadership, not by guesswork and not by committee. The Holy Ghost, listen to me, has never ever worked through a committee. ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever. He works through a leader, not a committee. Ever. * He can't work through a committee. Amen, pastor. Amen, Elder. He cannot do it. Too many ideas, too many opinions. There must be divine leadership. the Holy Ghost. Uh he works through kings, prophets, leaders, apostles. He has never ever worked through a committee ever. It's divine leadership, not guesswork, but by divine direction. * Let's read Isaiah 4 and 5-6. And we want to align ourselves with ancient Israel. We want to be those cloudy people, those fire people. We want to run with the horses, run with the fire, run with the cloud. Now, does it make sense to y'all? The song was prophetic. Do you understand? We literally are running with the fire and running with the cloud. * Amen. Isaiah 4 and 5-6. Then Yahweh will create above every dwelling place of Mount Zion, and above her assemblies a cloud and smoke by day, and the shining of a flaming fire by night. For over all the glory there will be a covering. And there will be a tabernacle for shade in the daytime, from the heat, for a place of refuge, and for a shelter from storm and rain. * This is a prophecy for end time Israel. I'd like for you to read it again because I don't know if anybody caught it. Here's a prophecy for ancient Israel. Read it slowly, Elder. Okay. Then Yahweh will create above every dwelling place of Mount Zion and above her assemblies a cloud and smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night. * If you're truly part of ancient Israel, the assembly, the third temple, the third tabernacle, if you're a member of that, you will dwell under a cloud by day and a fire by night. You will sing this song. Are you ready? I'm running with the horses. I'm running with the fire. I'm running with the cloud. And I'm not tired. I'm running with the horses. * I'm running with fire. Running with the cloud. I'm going higher. Why? I'm Israel. I live under a cloud and a fire. I'm Mount Zion. Who is Mount Zion? The third temple. Who is the third temple? End time Israel. Hallelujah. And over her there will be a cloud. There will be a divine light that will guide her out of those assemblies she came from and bring her there. * Read that next verse, Elder. Verse six. And there will be a tabernacle for shade in the daytime from the heat, for a place of refuge, and a pl and for a shelter from storm and rain. Here is your shelter. Get under the cloud. Get under the fire and you have found your refuge. End time Israel. Oh, the beauty of it. Isaiah 49 verse one. Let's turn there. * The book of Isaiah 49 verse one. By the way, I'm very fresh this morning and so this could be one of those Saturdays. Hallelujah. Amen. Like old times cuz I feel it in my bones. Hallelujah. Isaiah 49:1. Listen, O coastlands, to me, and take heed, you peoples, from afar. Yahweh has called me from the womb, from the matrix of my mother. * He has made mention of my name. Take heed, you lost tribes of Israel. Take heed those that have gone to the coastland. That would be the tribe of of the Danites and all of those that over in Sweden and different. He said, "Take heed, you coastand." Now, I want to read that out of my concordant version. I want to read that to you out of the concordant version. * I just love this Bible. They're very hard to get a hold of. But Isaiah 49, I want to read to you how it says it. Hearken to me, coastlands, and people from afar. Yahweh called me from the belly, from the boughels of my mother. He recorded my name. So who is Isaiah speaking to? Not Judah. They're not from the coastlands. * They're not the folks from afar. That's why in Acts chapter 2 verse 39, the promise is to those that are what? Anybody listening? Tell me a far off. Amen. So Isaiah is talking to the aar off people mistakenly known as Gentiles and he is telling them what's going to happen to them in the end time. Let's skip over to verse 22 of the self-same chapter. verse 22 and let's read. * Pastor, can I just mention, you've mentioned before that Christopher Columbus quoted this verse one when he did the Christopher Columbus teaching. That is very true. Absolutely. Christopher Columbus quoted these very verses. You're exactly right. When he found America. Amen. Verse 22. * Thus says Yahweh, "Behold, I will lift my hand in an oath to the nations, and set up my standard for the peoples. They shall bring your sons in their arms, and your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders." Hear me, you coastands, hear me, you that are a far off. Here's what's going to happen. I'm gonna lift up my hand. * I'm going to raise up my banner, my flag, the manora. I'm going to raise it up. Ultimately, it was Yeshua. And what's going to happen is everyone from those coastlands and a far off are going to bring their sons. They're going to bring their daughters on their shoulders. They're going to bring their sons in their bosom. * And they're going to come to Mount Zion where there's a cloud, where there's a fire, where there's a refuge for my people. Read verse 23. Kings shall be your foster fathers and their queens your nursing mothers. They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth and lick up the dust of your feet. * Then you shall know that I am Yahweh, for they shall not be ashamed who waits for me. He said, when I call you, kings and queens will no longer rule this earth, but kings and queens will bow down to those that I call and lick the dust off of your feet. So my question today is who are the real kings and queens? Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Of planet earth. * Amen. Do you see that in your Bible? In that day, I'm going to call those to whom I have poured my spirit on in the last days and I'm going to they're going to come running back to Mount Zion. Now, how are they going to do that? That cannot happen. Listen to me. That banner that Yahweh's going to raise, that standard, that hand that he's going to raise, that right hand, that is Elijah the prophet. * Why? Because what is Elijah the prophet going to do? What is his primary? When will you know you're hearing the prophet Elijah? Someone tell me. Tell me. Get go even deeper. Tell me the signifying sign of Elijah the prophet. Turning the children's hearts back to the fathers. Bingo. Bingo. * This prophet is going to be the banner. He's going to be the sign that will call those people from the coastlands, those that are a far off, and he will turn them back to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob's identity. They will turn back to their identity. That is not the ministry of Christ. That is the ministry of Elijah. Oh, you better know this. Hallelujah. * Now, let me ask you. I'm just going to ask you, of all the Christian churches in the world, how many of them are drawing you back to Torah? Zero. Zero. Zero. And therefore, they do not operate in the ministry of Elijah. Elijah will turn your heart back. What does that mean? The heart. Someone tell me. Mind. The mind. * The mind. Now tell me what the mind means. Thinking. Thinking. So Elijah is going to come along to those that were not thinking about Abraham. Can I just ask you an honest question? How many of you in the Christian churches was thinking about Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? No. You were thinking about Jesus. Okay. * But Elijah is going to come and turn your thinking back to the fathers of our faith and therefore return you to your identity. So how are we doing? An Israelite ministry must be doing that. And that's where we are today. Elder Meadows. No, I was just uh going to suggest to look in that same um chapter of Isaiah 49 verse 6. * It's pretty um Columbus also said that one. Let's let's go ahead and read it, Elder Jan. Okay. And I'm going to read it in that uh concordant version also. Okay. And it says, "And he is saying to me, it is a slight thing for you to be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to restore the dispersed of Israel. * And I give you also for a light of the nations to become my salvation unto the ends of the earth." Is that a slight thing? Oh my my my my. Hallelujah. This is Isaiah's prophecy. Listen, for the hour we're living in the coastlands. Hey, uh, ain't that funny? Guess where I live? Oh my my my my hallelujah. Woo. * I live right here on the coastlands. And when Yahweh brought me here, I came kicking and screaming. Why would you bring me? Sister Ruth Heft prophesied the end time movement would start at the mouth of the Mississippi River. And Isaiah said it would start at the coastlands. Hallelujah. So all I know is something is happening in our hour that is lining up with these prophecies. * That light and that pillar is shining in your day. If you're listening to me today, you have been blessed to see the light by day, the fire by night, the cloud. You've been blessed to see it. Now, let's turn to uh I well, let's start in first John chapter 2 verse 3 through verse 4. That sign of fire and cloud is still visible. There is still an outward sign of divine guidance among the remnant people, among the coastland people, among those that are being called back to Mount Si. * There is still somebody said, "I wished I could see the fire by day and the cloud by night." You can look beyond the cloud. Look beyond the fire. What was the purpose? What was the purpose of the outward sign? It was leading them to where? Don't say Canaan land. It was leading look beyond the letter. Find the spirit with me. * Come on, scriptural scientist. It was leading them to where? Mion. Amen. Amen. And it was leading them to maturation or maturity because Canaan is the maturity of the saints. There is still a cloud and still a fire that is leading Yahweh's people out of Christianity, out of just the blood, out of just to what? Maturity. * You can see it today. It is a people marked by obedience. And the first thing the father will reveal to you when you leave Babylon, here's the door. I want to show you the door that leads you out of Babylon. And I don't know why Yahweh chose such an outward sign, such a door, but he did. It's called the Sabbath day. * It is a sign of the pillar of fire and the cloud still among the people of Israel. This is a sign. What was the pillar of fire? A sign. What was the cloud? A sign that this is Israel. That sign still exists today and it is the first step out of Babylon. The first commandment, the first thing Moses restored when they left Egypt was the Sabbath. * It is a seal or a sign of maturing. Put that in your notes. The Sabbath is a sign of maturing. So, someone tell me what I just said. What was the purpose of the cl the cloud and the pillar to grow us up. Amen. To bring us to the fullness of the spirit. to bring us to where Christ arrived, the fullness of the spirit. * And the first thing that will Now, I didn't say the Sabbath brings you to maturity. What did I say? It's the sign. It's the sign that you're on that journey. It is the door that you're leaving carnal Christianity. You're leaving greasy grace and you're walking into the maturation journey to maturity. Now, pastor, I don't know if I believe all that. Well, okay. All right. * I really don't care what you believe. Let's see what the Bible says. Let's go read it for ourselves. Hebrews chapter 6 verse 1. Hebrews 6 and 1. Pastor Von, you're telling people to leave the cross and leave the the blood and leave grace and leave this and leave that. No, Pastor Von's not saying that. There's a book that you claim to love that says that. * Let's see if you really love that book enough to believe what it says. Let's read it. Hebrews 6 and1. Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ. Now, hold on. It's time to leave. Dare I say it? Paul said it. There will come a time in your journey when you will need to move past your infatuation with the cross. * Oh wow, what a bold statement, but I didn't write it. I'm simply reading it. Dear reader, dear gentle reader, that's all I'm doing is reading it. Paul said, "There will come a time when you need to move into another door." Keep reading. Let us go on to perfection, not laying again. Let us let us go on to maturity. Let us go on to Canaan land. * Let us go on to maturation. Let us go from the elementary PR. I look, I got people watching me right now and they'll watch the replay and you know what they tell me all the time? Why don't y'all just preach Christ? Just preach the cross. Just keep it simple, dimple. I wish I could. It would make my job so much easier. * But you see, there will come a time when you, if you're an Israelite, you don't want it kept simple. If you're an Israelite, you don't want it that. You want to come into maturity of your calling and your identity. And what's required of you in that calling, what's required of you in that identity. If you find out right now that you're a lost meadow child and you're part of the Meadows family, you didn't know you was a Meadow. You just found out. * And so they're going to move you into the house of the Meadows and you've been acting a fool out in the world. It ain't going to work in Jan Meadow's house. Yeah, I promise you that. I just want the truth only. Say it again, Brother Bandal. I just want the truth only. And that's what we all want. Amen. * If you move into Jan Meadow's house, you gonna have to meadow up. Why? There is. Now, you're going to live in a beautiful ranch. You're going to get all the benefits of any financial prosperity. it. You're you're going to you're not going to have to worry about where you're going to eat, but there's a responsibility in your identity, your new identity. * And so it is with an Israelite. When you find out you're an Israelite, you leave the basics of Christianity and you go on into your identity. Read the rest of that verse. Let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward Yahweh. So what does that do to those people that tell me y'all ought to just preach repentance and get people saved? I'm sorry. * I just read there will come a time when you'll have to get over all that and move beyond it. The Baptist babies will have to grow up one day. Amen. Read. But I'm not just picking on the Baptist babies. I'm about to come to the Pentecostal babies next. Read. Want me to go on to verse two? Yes, ma'am. Of the doctrine of baptisms of laying on of hands. Hold on now. * There's my Pentecostal babies right there. They love to preach about baptism. You got to get baptized. Oh, and they like laying hands and everybody falling out. That's my Pentecostal babies. Ain't nothing wrong with any of that. But you've not come into your identity yet. Reed, of resurrection of the dead and of eternal judgment. * And then you got the Christian babies that love to preach on judgment, the judgment seat of Christ. Everybody's going to hell. All right. Paul said, "It's time to get past all that and come into the door." The sign that you're being led to Canaan land. Read. Unmute yourself, Elder. And this we will do if Yahweh permits. * This we will do if Yahweh allows us to. In other words, you don't make this journey without an invitation from Yahweh. Oh, hallelujah. You never come out of that baby stage unless Yahweh invites you to it. Unless he appoints you to it and anoints you all the way through it. my beloved friend. Hallelujah. * What a calling we have. Amen. Um let's read uh se 1 John 2 and 3-4. Now by this we know that we know him if we keep his commandments. He who says, "I know him," and does not keep his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. Amen. You will find a people that's keeping the commandments. * That's when you have found the outward sign. That's when you have found. You know, uh, people love to tell me all the time, Pastor Von, God looks on the heart. Man looks on the outward. You're exactly right. Who in the world are we here to minister to? Man. So they they they are looking I mean what if what if Israel in ancient Israel would have said to the world we're Israel. * No, they didn't have to say they were Israel. They had a sign. It was a cloud by day and a fire by night. They were known by their outward sign. They were known by what men could see. Yes, Yahweh knows the heart, but we're not trying to please Yahweh as far as impressing him. We're not trying to uh win Yahweh. We're not trying to influence Yahweh. * We are here to influence the world. And man looks on the outward. Therefore, the outward sign is important. And there is a sign that every one of you have that the world doesn't have. It's called the Sabbath day. Keep it holy. That's your sign. That's your identity to the world that you are Israel. Amen. Never ever give it up. Ever. Ever. Ever. * Make it holy. When people drive by our church on on the Sabbath on Saturday, all the cars around our church is a sign. There's your pillar of fire. There's your cloud. Look at it. The sign is there. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. And when your friends ask you to go to a party with them or to do this or to do that on Shabbat and you say, "If it wasn't the Sabbath, I would be oh so happy to. * " You have just become the sign. You are the cloud. You are the fire. And I'm only on paragraph one after an hour of 14 pages of notes. Heaven help us today. Hallelujah. Mercy. Hallelujah. So in our day, a people have been called from the coastlands set apart as deposiary depositories of his law. And for those who obey it, the commandments are our pillar of fire, lighting and leading the way. * Every chapter of the Bible, every verse, every whisper of the word is a thread in that divine road mapap of our communication with Yahweh to man. The scriptures will lead Yahweh's end time Israel. Divine leadership will be in the scriptures, not in the church creed, not in the statement of faith, but divine leadership will be the holy scriptures. * Now, as we continue to look into ancient Israel, let's start looking at their pattern of leadership, their pattern of existence as a people. And here's what I want every one of you to do. First Harvest Ministries, I've always told you, is not a church. What do I mean by that? We are Israel. We follow a pattern, a repeating pattern. Call it what you will. * I call it a ministry for lack of a better word. But we are Israel. And therefore, if we're going to organize, which we should, by the way, and I'll get to that in a moment, we must do it by the pattern, not by Babylon. We don't run Israel the way Walmart's corporate board runs Walmart. That is Babylon. Israel has a pattern. * Your job today is to find that pattern and duplicate it. And that's what we want to check oursel against today to see if we're doing it. Hosea chapter 12 verse 13. While we're turning there, let me ask all of you and someone chime in and give me the answer. It's a test question. Did Yahweh lead ancient Israel through a plethora of prophets or one? Answer the question. * One, many, many at a time. One at a time. All right. Now, here's what I want to show you. We have to get the leadership right if we're going to get Israel right. Let's read Hosea 12 and 13. Now, before we read it, how many agree that it was God Yahweh? Yahweh made a promise to Israel. What did he tell them? I will come down and deliver you from Egypt. * That's in your Bible. Yahweh said, "I will deliver you with my hand." Let's read it. By a prophet, Yahweh brought Israel out of Egypt, and by a prophet, he was preserved. Amen. I'm just going to let that percolate a minute. I think you know it again. Say it again, Elder. I know another. To Yahweh be the glory. Listen. * Through a prophet. Yahweh led. Not through a board, not through elders, not through a committee. Let me get this straight today because I've come to teach you what Israel looks like. Yahweh said, "I led the Exodus through a prophet, through a man. I led my people out and kept them, millions of them, in divine order." I did it. * Yahweh said, "I did it." But how many agree with me? Yahweh never did that. He never came down and led his people. Amen. He did it through his prophet. He did it through his servant. Let's read Psalm 77 verse 20. Elder Jan, if you'll get the book of Micah, chapter 6 and verse 4. Now, while they're getting those scriptures, how many agree that Yahweh could have led Israel with an angel? He could have led them with thunder, but he chose a man, Moses. * And let's talk about Moses, shall we? A convicted felon. He was on the run from the law. Did you know Moses was a convicted felon? Yes, he was. He was tried in the courts of Pharaoh and considered to be a murderer. And there was an arrest warrant out for Moses by the law of the land. And guess what? He was a murderer. So was Yesua. Amen. He was a convicted felon. * Yesua was. And so was Paul. Now, I I just want you to think about that now. Ain't that interesting? Moses was on the run from the law, the legitimate law of the land. I want you to wrap your Those of you that's sitting there going, wrap your little brain around that. Wrap it. Moses was a convicted felon that listen that had killed someone. * Oh yeah, Elder Brawer's getting it over there about to come out of her chair. Now you're in good company, pastor. Brothers and sisters, I'm teaching you this for a reason. I want you to see that even though Yahweh could have led his people with Michael the archangel, he could have led them with thunder, but he chose a failure. * He chose a man with a past. He chose a man with a record. He chose a broken man. a man that he was about to put in charge of all the finances of Israel. He chose a man that he was about to use against all odds. I mean, hello. Come on. What do you think happened to those Israelites when word got to them that he was a murderer on the run? He's hid it from the wise and the prudent and revealed it unto babes. * Why? Because that's how Yahweh works with Israel. Do you know why Yahweh uses broken men to lead Israel? To find out how much Israel trust Yahweh. [Music] There's nothing he can't do. nothing. How much do you trust Yahweh to send you a broken man to lead you? That is when your trust in him will be proven in the men and women that he chooses to lead his people. * A man with fears. By the way, Moses was fearful. Did you know that he was afraid? He was also rebellious. Did you know that he hit a rock when he was supposed to speak to a rock? He had doubts. That's the beauty of Yahweh. Yahweh takes the basist things to confound the wise. Why would Yahweh choose someone like me and give me a platform overnight to call Israel out from the coastlands? Why? I don't know. * My God, I had I had fear of my name being all over the news the next morning after that viral video. I literally woke up with heart palpitations, begging God to get rid of it. Why would you put me out there? That was a folks. I'm not playing. I was scared to death. You're our filter, pastor. Yahweh always chooses a man to test your faith in his ability through a broken man to lead his people. It never fails. * It has been the same. Somebody say it's a pattern. The pattern. I mean, should should we continue? Do we not have Was David not a murderer and an adulterer? I mean, should we continue? Paul, he does it because if he brought you a man that all men spoke well of, you would have no confidence in Yahweh, you would have confidence in man. * Oh, I just need you to hear what I'm teaching you right now. Hallelujah. If he brought you a man that all men spoke well of, you wouldn't have to place your faith in Yahweh. Yahweh, why did you send us this broken pastor to lead us? What? But that's when you say, "Oh, I'm glad I'm able to look past the broken pastor and see a faithful God that leads us by fire and cloud. * " Oh, hallelujah. Hallelujah. The reason Yahweh sent broken leaders because the truth is you can never worship a broken leader ever. There are some men that you can worship almost. And I'm just using a figure of speech. They have impeccable lives. They we just they're blameless. They're perfect. But when y'all send somebody like me along, you almost just have to laugh and say, "Okay, hallelujah." Then you say, "Okay, y'all. * You know what? We're going to look past him with his loud preaching and his squeaky voice and and and you know what, y'all? Looking at him just makes me want to worship you because you you loved me enough to use a broken man to lead your people. That's why Moses was the meakest man on earth. * He knew how broken he was and yet he was the leader of Yahweh's people. That's why I pray every day for meekness. I pray. I almost don't even have to pray for it because I I I feel like I already have it. Why? Because I know who I am. There it is. I know. I know who I am. I know where I came from. I know I don't deserve to be behind this microphone. * I know it more than any of my enemies. I know it more than anybody. All I can say is, "Look up, children. He must be operating this thing because it sure ain't me." Hallelujah. Hallelujah. To Yahweh be the glory. Amen. Hallelujah. Amen. Amen. Amen. The book of Psalms 77:E 20. Psalm 77:20. And then Micah 6 and4. * You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron. How did Yahweh lead his people? by his hand. Didn't the Bible say he led them by his hand? But how? Somebody tell me how he led his people by the hand? Moses and Aaron. By Moses and Moses and a minister that was submitted to Moses, y'all. That's in your Bible. * Now, my question to you today, if we're end time Israel, why would that pattern change? Follow the pattern. It repeats itself. It replicates itself. Yahweh, the Bible said, David said he led his people by the hand. The only problem is he had to borrow a hand of a broken man so that the people would never worship the man. * Oh, is anybody in Tennessee getting this? Over with Elder Morgan. Y'all getting this this morning? Don't ever be afraid of man worship in this ministry. I'll never let it happen. You understand that? Oh, never. Now, I'll teach honor for an office. It's the same way with Donald Trump. * That man is the last man I would have ever voted for president. Do you understand that? I can't stand his mouth. I can't stand the way he he's treated women in the past. I But you know what? I got sense enough to know when the hand of God touches a broken man, sign me up. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Why? Because the office, the office of the pastor, the office of the elder, the office is worthy of double honor, not the man. * I'll never know why people accuse our people of man worship when I preach against it night and day. We follow a cloud together. My people laugh at me sometimes by how wrong I get it. But it's all right. They understand. They understand. I'm a broken man with an unbroken father. and I've got just enough humility to say yes, Lord, to whatever he tells me to do. * Some people two years later would still be having committee meetings about buying a piece of land, 30 acres, and I did it the next day. Why? I'll say yes, Lord, when he says to move. Moses was born on time. Read the book of Micah, chapter 6, verse 4. For I brought you out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed you out of the house of servants, and I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam. * These people led. Yahweh said, "I did it." I I really hope you're getting that. Yahweh said, "I led you out." But he just said, "I used Moses, Miriam." Miriam led the praise and worship team. Uhhuh. I used a pastor, Moses. I used an assistant pastor, Aaron. And I used a a worship pastor to lead my people out. Hallelujah. * Hallelujah. That's why we should honor our worship leaders. They are pastors in their own right. They are leading the people out of the bondage of religious worship. They're leading them out. We honor. We honor. We honor. Because why? If Yahweh said, "I led you out through Moses." When we honor Moses, we're not honoring Moses. We're honoring the one that led them out. Amen. Through a broken vessel. * Now, Moses was born on time in the house of Pharaoh, and then he was retrained in the wilderness until he was ready to lead Yah's people. I also was born in the house of Pharaoh in an old religion that raised me and trained me in the Pentecostal ways. I'm not I don't Pharaoh in this instance is just a religion just an old order if you will. * I was raised in that house trained and then Yahweh same thing brought me to a wilderness called the prison and retrained me until I was ready to lead his people. And he does that to every leader. He will break them before he blesses them. That's why when you read about the communion or I'm sorry, the bread of Passover, the Bible said Josh Yoshua took the bread, broke the bread and blessed it. * He can never bless you till he breaks you. It follows that pattern every time, children. Every single time. Now, how do we know that the spirit of prophecy is among us? Now, I'm fixing to teach on the spirit of prophecy. How do we know the spirit of prophecy is among us? You know, we all love prophets. Everybody chases them. * Julie Green, uh, long, uh, Kim Clement. People believe all of that is prophecy. No, that is a gift of the word of knowledge. I I want to teach you today what the spirit or the mind of prophecy truly is. Because Moses had it. Moses led Israel with the mind of prophecy. And you need to know today if your leadership has that spirit of prophecy among us. * We're going to find out if we have the spirit of prophecy among our elders, our leaders, if that is what's leading our congregation. Deuteronomy chapter 13. We always go back to Torah. Deuteronomy 13, chapter 1, I'm sorry, verse 1 through verse 5. Elder Jan, if you'll grab Isaiah 8 and 20. Now, not every voice that proclaims prophecy is divine. Israel was given a test. * She was given miracles, predictions, and wonders. But you see, Satan can mimic all of that. False prophets speak with boldness. Let's see what Torah says about prophets. Deuteronomy 13 1-5. If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams and he gives you a sign or a wonder and the sign or the wonder comes to pass of which he spoke to you saying let us go after other gods which you have not known and let us serve them. * You shall not listen to the words of that prophet. Now listen now listen carefully. In Babylon, we were taught if a man prophesies something and it comes to pass, that's a prophet. Anybody say amen? Anybody ever heard that? It's a lie. Torah does not say that. Torah says, "If a man prophesies and it comes to pass, that's not a prophet. Because if right after he prophesies that he starts teaching you the trinity or modalism any god. * If he starts teaching you about a man God, I'm going to teach you. If you have true prophecy in your church, I don't care if you call somebody out and say, "Tomorrow at noon, a tree is going to fall on your car and it happens." That's not a prophet. That is a lying, deceptive divination. And only Israel can catch the difference. Amen. * Brothers and sisters, there's very few prophets in our land today. But here's how you'll know. If that prophet prophesies something and it comes to pass and he teaches you the trinity or incarnation. Oh pastor, my Bible don't say that. You better read it again. He says if it comes to pass and that man causes you to serve other gods besides hero Israel, Yahweh is one. * If that man is not preaching the sheima, if that man is not teaching you the truth of the one God, he's not a prophet. He's a fortune teller, a forteller. And I must tell you, I always was taught if a man prophesies something and it comes to pass, that's a prophet. Well, then Edgar Casease is a prophet. Let's keep reading. * You shall not listen to the words of You shall not listen. Get him off your Facebook feed. Get him out of your YouTube feed. Stop listening to all these Julie Greens and all these people that you call prophets and you don't even hear the voice of a real prophet. Amen. There are no prophets in the mainstream media. * There's very few in your world today. Very few. Very few. Only Israel will be able to identify them. And I promise you right now, there's a brother that I love more dearly than I love him. That man can call you out and tell you what color your teeth is on the right side of your mouth without ever seeing you. * He can tell you your mama's name, your daddy's name, and the people flock. That man knew the truth of one God. He knew the truth of Sabbath. He knew the truth of holy days. Turned his back on all of it. And that man's still prophesying. And the whole world is eating it up. Keep reading. For that dreamer of dreams, for Yahweh your God is testing you to know whether you love What's yah? Why is Yahweh allow pastor? Why does Yahweh the Holy Spirit's on them, pastor? The people are falling. * No, it's a test. I children, it's a test to find [Applause] Israel. All these preachers out there, have you ever wondered why does God not shut them all down? He needs them. Oh my. Some of you watching me right now are following prophets that do not keep the Sabbath day. You have followed a liar. They do not keep the holy days. * They are liars. They do not keep the commandments of our God. They are liars. You have been deceived. You need to repent of that deception. They preach three gods. They preach a man god. They preach the wrong god. And you've failed the test. The good news, you can unfail grabbing a hold of the spirit of prophecy and following the cloud and the fire and coming into Mount Zion. * Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Glory. Amen. Say it again, pastor. That was the word of Yahweh you just heard. That was not Shane Vaughn. Clear water. Clear water is running. Hallelujah. It is a test. You're being tested to see if you'll flock to their voices. Oh, but pastor uh uh uh uh they prophesied President Trump was going to and he did. * What did they say after? What god do they preach? Now see what you know what that does? that brings you to their channel to listen to the false doctrines and false teachings of a wrong god. And so that was a test to see if you could be deceived and the false gospel. It's all a false gospel. * And and I'm feeling my helper right now. Hallelujah. I feel the the sheck. I feel the kabad. Glory. Elder Jan. Hallelujah. It's fire pastor. Well, the word here says to put those false prophets to death. Put them to death. Turn them off. Turn them off. Get them out of your mind. Get Listen, you know the saddest thing, Elder Jan? Israel had the spirit of prophecy among them and yet sought after prophets. * This ministry, I fixed to prove it, by the way. We're just getting started. This is number two. The first one was divine leadership. Now we're moving into the spirit of prophecy. The second identifying trait of end time Israel. Was that the end of that elder where you were reading? Yes, sir. Oh, go through verse five. Woo. Verse four. * You shall walk after your after the after Yahweh your God and fear him and keep his commandments and obey his voice. You shall serve him and hold fast to him. But that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death because he has spoken in order to turn you away from Yahweh your God who brought you out of the land of Israel and redeemed you from the house of bondage to entice you from the way in which Yahweh your God commanded you to walk. Wow. * So you shall put away the evil from your mi midst. My God, what a powerful powerful scripture. I don't know about y'all, but that's running all through my spirit man right now. Hallelujah. Amen. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Put them away. They're What did that What did he say the prophet's doing? Turning you away from the way you're supposed to walk. * the narrow way. They call it legalism now. And they must be right because they told what day the White House was going to blow up and it blew up. They told what day blah blah blah. They If that's the case, go right down there to the French Quarter in New Orleans. There's psychics all around Jackson Square. Sit down. * They'll read you some cards and tell you what's coming. They're no different than the prophets in the church. Except the prophets are more dangerous. Amen. They turn you away from the way. Let's read Isaiah 8 and verse 20. To the law and to the testimony. If they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. * Y'all give me a second. That flying man just flew in my room. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Listen to me carefully. To the law and the testimony. What is the testimony? The spirit of prophecy. If what they say doesn't line up with Torah and the spirit of prophecy, there's no light in them, even if their prophecies come to pass. * Is anybody hearing me today? Let me hear some voices. Is anybody hearing what I'm saying? Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Pastor you, pastor. Hallelujah. This is what makes so important. Before I move into teaching you what the spirit of prophecy is, why don't I give everybody a restroom break for about 10 minutes and then we're going to go into the spirit of prophecy. * So, I'm going to give everybody a 10 minute bathroom break. We'll be back at 1:32 Central time. Amen. Yahweh bless you. Hallelujah. Now I can check on my puppy. Hallelujah. Where's my Hallelujah. Mr. B. * [Music] [Music] Father, I love [Applause] you with everything inside of me. I surrender. I surrender into your hands. I love you, [Music] Father. I love you, Father.

Watch over my people. Show them the truth. Watch over my precious ones. Watch over my people. Show them the truth. * Watch over my precious ones. Watch over my people. Show them the truth. Watch over my precious ones. Watch over my people. Show them the truth. I've resolved in my heart to do what you say. Hallelujah. Amen. All right, welcome back. I hope I didn't lose too many of you. But uh what we're going to do today since I have so far left to go in this lesson and I don't want to break it up into next week because I I'm trying to get on the book of life next week if the Lord will help me. * Uh what I'm going to do today, if you were brought to this Bible study kicking and screaming and you're a visitor and you're ready to go, we're going to do one final little segment and then I'm going to dismiss all of those that need to go. you will have fulfilled your duty. And then I'm going to continue for the for the uh what I call the uh the hard hardcore believers this morning. So that's what we'll do today. * We'll just make a day of it. Now, for those of you that need to eat in Tennessee, y'all can leave right after this next small segment. and then uh but those that are at home, I'm going to try to finish this lesson today if at all possible. Amen. We're talking about the spirit of prophecy. * The book of James 5 verse1 17. While we're turning there, remember a true prophet. We already know what a false prophet is. How do we know the true spirit of prophecy? I don't see Elder Deb Tuttle today. I hope she is okay. She was here earlier. She was okay. Okay. Amen. How do we know the true she is the true spirit of prophecy? It must be among the house of Israel because the true prophet's message will will mirror the word of Yahweh. * Now, I just I could shut my whole lesson down right there. A true prophet is known by his message, the walking word of Yahweh. Absolutely. It will mirror the word of Yahweh. By the way, that is the spirit of prophecy, the mirroring of the word. Now, I want to show you that in the scripture. Let's read in James, my sister, chapter 5, verse 17. * Elijah was a man with a nature like ours and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain and it did not rain on the land for 3 years and six months. Now why would it why would it tell us that about Elijah? Read it again. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain and it did not rain on the land for 3 years and six months. * He was a man with the same problems that all men have. Why? Because what he's doing here is showing you that true prophets are not determined to be so by their perfection. Read it again. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for 3 years and 6 months. * Let me help you with this. Do you know that Elijah was the greatest prophet that ever lived? But do you remember that story where some boys made fun of his bald head? The bear came out. Say it again, Elder. The bears came out. Yeah, the bears came out. Elijah called them out on them children. Elijah was not a perfect man. * The Bible said he had the same passions that we have. But yet, it says when he told the rain to stop, it stopped. Because the point is, if you're looking for the spirit of prophecy in a ministry and you're looking at the man, you're never going to find it. I need you to hear me now. * There is a reason that it says that about Elijah. He was a man just like us with the same passions, the same problems. You know, he argues with his wife just like we do. Same man. But if you're not careful, you will look at that part of Elijah and miss the spirit of prophecy. Now this is important that we understand this. Now, 1 Corinthians 1 6-8 and then Elder Jan, if you'll grab Ephesians 4 8-11. * Let's read about this prophetic voice that will guide ancient Israel in the last days. Remember this, prophets are not just voices. They are anchors in stormy water. When you hear their voice, the raging sea around you no longer bothers you. When you hear the voice of a true prophet, he brings solidarity in your shaky world. * He brings the truth of the word of Yahweh. Let's read it. Ephesians 1 6-8 1 Corinthians or Ephesians 1 Corinthians 6 even as the testimony of Yeshua Mhm. was confirmed in you so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Yeshua Messiah, who will also confirm you to the end that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Yeshua Messiah. * Did you hear what he said? I'm the one preaching to you, but it is the spirit of prophecy. It is the Lord that is confirming you, not me. My voice is the Lord confirming you. And that's important that we understand that. Ephesians 4 and 8-11. Wherefore he said when he when he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive and gave gifts unto men. * Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth? that he descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens that he might fill all things. And he gave some apostles and some prophets and some evangelists and some pastors and some teachers. The question is why? Because the spirit of prophecy cannot be heard in the church without the mouth of these five people. * Now, if you'll go back to where Elder King just read, I think we ought to read that again and line that up with what Elder Jan just read. Let's read what Paul says in First Corinthians. Even as the testimony of Yeshua Messiah was confirmed in you, so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Yeshua Messiah, who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Yeshua Messiah. * The reason they had the spirit of Christ or the spirit of prophecy among them was because of Paul's teaching of the message. Not because of Paul, but because of the message. Now, Elder Jan, grab Revelations 12:17, Elder King, Revelation 19 and verse 10. Revelation 12:17, Revelation 19 and 10. And I'm going to be done here in 15 minutes for those that need to leave today. * Revelation uh 12:17. And the dragon was furious and enraged with the woman and went to make war with the remnant of her seed which kept the commandments of Yah and have the testimony of Yeshua Hamashiach. The testimony of Yeshua. What is the testimony of Yeshua? This is the only people on earth that Satan is angry at. * He's not angry at Christians. He is angry at the remnant that number one keep the Sabbath and have the same testimony that Yesua had. our job today because the testimony of Yeshua is the spirit of prophecy. Let's read Revelations 19 and verse 10. And I fell at his feet to worship him, but he said to me, "See that you do not do that. * I am your fellow servant and of your brethren who have the testimony of Yeshua Messiah." So this is very important that we know what the testimony of Yosua is. First of all, when a witness comes to court, they are there to testify that what is being said is true. Yesua came to earth to bring a testimony to line his life up with the commandments of Yahweh and declare to the world his commandments are true. His word is true. * The testimony of Yesua is this. He says amen to every word of his father. Since half of you missed it, I will try that again. The testimony of Yesua is the amen of God. That's why he is called the amen. He says amen to every word of his father. He gives testimony to their truth and their veracity. And that's why that is the spirit of prophecy. * Now the word prophecy, we need to get all of this mumbo jumbo out of our mind. It's simply speaking under divine inspiration. Every time I preach you a message, I am prophesying. I am bringing you the mindset of truth. The spirit, the mind of prophecy is the mindset to say amen to divine truth. And that's why Yeshua is the spirit of prophecy. * Now, let me take that back. I'm sorry. Yesua is not the spirit of prophecy. The testimony of Yesua is the spirit of prophecy because the spirit, the true mind of a prophet is not telling you his own words. The true spirit of prophecy is saying amen to what's already been spoken in the Torah. That is the spirit of prophecy. * You need to understand and that is the only people that Satan is angry with. What people? The ones that have the same testimony as Yeshua. The ones that never doubt the word of Yahweh. When you hear me preach and you get angry at what I'm preaching, you're getting angry at the spirit of prophecy. Not at me, not at the prophet, not at me, but the mindset of truth. * Because if I preach it to you, baby, I can back it up from Genesis to Revelation. You're not mad at me. You're angry at the spirit of truth. And it goes against everything your grandma taught you, everything your mama taught you, everything you believe. But the truth is, it's so powerful, it can never leave your mind. * And you'll either hate me or love truth. Amen. Because this testimony that I bring to you is the same testimony brought to the earth that his father's words are true. They are yay and they are amen. And I am the amen of his word. I believe every word of it. And therefore, Satan is angry with whom? Somebody tell me. * I want to make sure you're listening. Nobody's listening. Amen. Amen. Satan is angry with those testimony that have the testimony that stands up in court before the whole world and says, "My father's words are true. Torah is true. Every word is truth." That, beloved, is the spirit of prophecy. Now, I want to break it down for you. * Satan is angry against the true prophets of this world. You don't see anybody out there protesting these so-called prophets. Ain't nobody angry. Ain't nobody angry at these so-called prophets. The world loves them. The world has their itching ears. They have the itching ears for the false prophets of the world. However, when the spirit of prophecy comes, Satan is angry. * Do you know why? Because only the spirit of prophecy can reveal to you Satan's plan. That's why he's angry. Only the spirit of prophecy exposes the end of Satan. Only the spirit of prophecy reveals the plan of his demise. Only the spirit of prophecy. And who is the only people that know that plan? Those that keep the holy days. Amen. There is no other group of people that understands the millennial reign and the last great day, the eighth day. * And but those that do, they already know Satan doesn't bother them. We couldn't care less about him. We found out he's a worm. We don't go around rebuking him night and day. We're not casting him out of everybody because we already know he's been cast out anyway. So therefore, he is angry at those that know the testimony, the spirit of prophecy that are exposing his weakness, that are exposing his end and how it's all going to happen. * That is the spirit of prophecy. Let's read in 2 Kings chapter 6 verse 8 through verse 17. I want you to read this now. The dragon is angry not against believers. Listen to me and I'm not being ugly. Why would Satan be mad at one Christian in the world? They've not done anything to him. They just got saved. * Now, I need you to listen to that. Why would Satan be mad at anybody for being saved? Why would he make war with people just because they go into heaven? No, he's making war with those that have the testimony of truth. Those that are telling the world about his weakness, those that know the truth. That's who's at war with. Why? Because he needs to control the narrative. * Do you know why mainstream media is at war with podcasters? Because they're no longer controlling the narrative. The testimony of truth about the election in 2020. Do you know why they were all angry? There were those of us that had the testimony of truth and it angered the world because we're still to this day. * I'm not on YouTube right now so I can say it. We're still to this day declaring 2020 was a stolen election. That's the testimony of truth. It is what it is. And you can't change truth. Time may pass, but truth don't change. It was stolen. Everybody knows it was stolen. And now it's been vindicated. * And it may be vindicated even more for a third term. Amen. Read 2 Kings 6 and verse 8-17. Now the king of Syria was making war against Israel. And he consulted with his servants, saying, "My camp will be in such and such a place. And the man of Yahweh sent to the king of Israel, saying, "Beware that you do not pass this place, for the Syrians are coming down here, coming down there. * " Then the king of Israel sent someone to the place of which the man of Yahweh had told him. Thus he warned him, and he was watchful there, not just once or twice. Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was greatly troubled by this thing. And he called his servants and said to them, "Will you not show me which of us is for the king of Israel?" And one of his servants said,"None, my lord, O king, but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom." So he said, "Go and see where * he is that I may ascend and get him." And he was told, he told him, saying, "Surely he is in Dothan." Therefore, he sent horses and chariots and a great army there. And they came by night and surrounded the city. And when the servant of the man of Yahweh arose early and went out, there was an army surrounding the city with horses and chariots. * And his servant said to him, "Alas, my master, what shall we do?" So he answered,"Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those that are with them." And Elisha prayed and said, "Yahweh, I pray. Open his eyes that he may see." Then Yahweh opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. * The true spirit of prophecy never brings fear. It is an anchor in the storm. It will open your eyes to the truth. I don't know if you read that story she just read. The king wanted a prophet. You know what he was told? Sorry sir, there's only one in this whole land. And this prophet opened the eyes of this young man. * When you find a true prophet, he will not impress you. He will open your eyes to see truth. And that truth will give you faith like you've never had before. You'll lose all fear of the end of the world. You'll lose all fear of of Armageddon, all fear. You will your eyes and you'll see greater are they that are for Israel than they that are against us. * When you get a true prophet, hang tight. Listen carefully. And you drive up to the land and you see a sign from the enemy and the front of the land. A true prophet will say, "Uh-uh, don't look over there. Come look at what Yahweh is doing on this land." He won't allow you to look at those that are against us. * He will force your eyes to see those that are for us. The true prophet never focuses on the moment. He focuses on the message always. Why? He has the spirit of prophecy, the spirit of truth. Elder Jan quickly grabbed 2 Chronicles 20 and 20 for me. The testimony that Yeshua had is the spirit of prophecy. * When a prophet speaks the truth, Satan is exposed. Put that in your notes. When a prophet speaks the truth, you're not impressed, but Satan is exposed. The true prophet always exposes Satan. Through the true prophet, deception is unmasked. Christmas trees are cut down and bunny rabbit's tails are cut off. Easter bunny rabbits. * Why? The deception is removed. Through the spirit of prophecy, the church is preserved. Amen. Amen. I hope you're hearing me. When the spirit of prophecy enters a ministry, it can be fought night and day on 50 different Facebook pages. But if the spirit of prophecy is in that ministry, that ministry will be preserved through the through through the prophet never allow. * Why do you think the man of God has begged every one of you to never go look? I'm doing just like Elisha did. You think it's because I want to control you? Perish the thought. No. I'm trying. Really? Really? One Facebook page with 300 followers out of two billion people on Earth and that's where we're going to look? No. * The prophets has opened their eyes, Lord, to see the work that's being done, to see the baptisms that's taking place, to see the truth that's going forth. Why would we ever look at at at what those that are against us, pastor? Yes, ma'am. I feel ashamed that you had to preach this to us. Thank you. Thank you, Elder. * And yet I still have people that loves to go over there. And you know what? When are you ever going to recognize the spirit of prophecy among the people? and you will not allow me to open your eyes like Elisha, the true prophet, did. He said, "What did that man said? Oh, they're all against us. Oh, but this one did that. * " The prophet says, I'm going to expose that right now for how little it is, pastor. Amen. Go ahead, brother. I'm proud of the word and I am glad this is about a good understanding of prophecy. I didn't watch any of them prophets. I figured prophets were gone when and after Yeshua and and and his followers. I thought there was no other prophets. * I seen Kim Clement many years ago, many many before I found you. And I listened to him a couple times, but I even turned him off. I didn't think there was any more prophets until the end time. But I now know the spirit of prophecy. Yes, sir. Is prophesizing. Yes, sir. Thank you, brother Jack. * You just explained it so perfect. You just explained it so perfect. Brothers and sisters, we're going to show you now. I'm fixing to show you the spirit of prophecy. I've been building up to it. I want to show you from the word after Elder Jan read 2 Chronicles 20:20. Before we move into that, and they rose early in the morning and went forth into the wilderness of Tecoa. * And as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Hear me, O Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem. Believe in Yah your Elohim, and so shall it you be established. Believe his prophets, and so shall you prosper." Oh my. Why not just believe God? It said believe the prophets. Why? Because a true prophet has the spirit of prophecy. * And the spirit of prophecy is simply what? The amen of the word. They will cause you. Notice what he's telling all these people. Don't fear. Have no fear. The spirit of prophecy can never bring you fear because if it does then that means Yahweh is afraid. Hallelujah. Oh, I'm so thankful that prophecy is not about endtime events. * Prophecy is about eternal plans that are playing themselves out perfectly in planet Earth. Hallelujah. and Satan will always rise up. If you want to know the true spirit of prophecy, find one that's being fought night and day. The true spirit of prophecy attracts the attack of the enemy. Now, let's dive in to the spirit of prophecy. Revelation chapter 19. * And I want to show you something today that the Lord revealed to me. I'm grabbing the concordant version comparing it to the book of Yahweh. Let's read Revelation 19. And I'm going to read this because I I want to stress a few things and we're almost done for the I may or may not continue. We'll decide in a minute. * Revelation 19 and No, I am going to because I got to get a message out. Verse 9. And he said to me, "Write, happy are those that are invited to the wedding supper of the lamb." Not everybody's invited to the millennial reign. And he's saying to me, "These are the true sayings of Yahweh." In other words, what I'm telling you is the words of Yahweh. * Now, let's go to verse 10. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said to me, "No, I'm just a fellow servant as you are. I'm of your brethren, the prophets. who have the testimony of Yeshua, worship Yahweh. For the testimony of Yeshua is the spirit of prophecy. Brothers and sisters, I want to challenge you today. You go to any search engine you want to and type what is the spirit of prophecy and put that verse in there. * It's going to blow your mind. No one knows who this is in that verse. No one. The best theologians, believe me, I spent all night looking. The best theologians believe that this must have been an angel. talking to John. Many believe that maybe it was a dead prophet speaking to John because this person would not receive John's worship. * This person claims to have the testimony of Yeshua and the spirit of prophecy. Who is this saying? I'm just a fellow servant of yours. I'm one of the prophets. Worship Yahweh, not me. Now, I want to kill that if I may. How many know that John was a devout Jew? And what is one thing a devout Jew would never do to an angel? Worship him. Worship. Worship. * They had been taught all through Torah not to worship angels. And yet John is falling down at the feet of this so-called angel to worship him. No, never in a million years. For John to fall down in worship, he must have known this person very well and must have deemed this person worthy of worship. Let's go back and find out who this person is. * Go to Revelation 19 verse one. Let's start and find our context. After these after these things, I heard a voice from the throne in heaven saying, "Hallelujah, salvation and glory and power is of your God. For true and just is his judgment. For he judges the great prostitute who corrupts the earth with her prostitution and avenges the blood of slaves at her at her hand. * Where is this voice coming from? The throne. Would anybody like to tell me who was promised to sit in my father's throne? Yeshua. Yes. And us. Yeshua. Yesua the Messiah. Now let's follow this voice. This voice even on the throne is saying hallelujah to Yahweh. Glory and honor belong to him even on the throne. * Now if you follow this down go back to where we started at verse number uh let's see verse number nine. Let's follow this voice. And he said to me, John, write these words. Happy are those who are invited to the wedding. And then he said to me, "These are the true sayings of Yahweh." In other words, even on the throne, he is still saying what he said on earth. * What I tell you is not my words. I have the spirit of prophecy. What I'm telling you is the truth, the amen of my father. Now verse 10. And I fell at his feet to worship him. This could only be Yeshua the Messiah talking to John. This would be the only one that John would fall down and worship. After all, he's sitting on the throne. And here's what Yesua said. * Don't do it. I am a fellow servant. Or how about brother? I am a brother of yours. Did it not say in Hebrews he would not be ashamed? He would sit among the congregation and not be ashamed to call us brothers. I am your He said, "I'm your brother and I am of the prophets." Did Moses not tell us in the Torah that Yesua would rise up as a prophet like he was with the spirit of prophecy? Moses had the spirit of prophecy. * Yesua says, "I am your brother. I am one of those prophets that have the spirit of prophecy. And what I tell you are the true words of Yahweh." How do I know that Joshua, by the way, there's no other church in the world that would agree with me on that? Why? Because Yosua said he was a fellow brother and he was just a prophet. and he directed all worship to the father. * Sounds a lot like he was when he was on earth to me. Yes, sir. There's not one church in the world that would agree with me that this is Yesua. Yet verse one says that this voice that's talking to John came from the throne. And there's only one that's sitting on that throne now, and that's Yesua because the Father set him on that throne. * But verse 11 tells me it's Yesua. And the heavens were open and a white horse, and I saw him sitting on that horse, faithful and true, and righteousness he is judging. Who did the Bible tell us? Judgment was given to the son. His eyes, and I'm not going to continue, made the point. Yesua had the spirit of prophecy. * Moshe had the spirit of prophecy. Paul had the spirit of pro. David had the spirit of prophecy. Not because they were telling people their future, but because they were telling people the truth. Glory to God. Pastor, pastor, pastor. But yes, sir, pastor. But why? Why do I struggle with the fact that he said, "I am the alf and the tet. * I am the alpha." Because he because he didn't. Go read my whole article. That's a gross mistransation. I have a huge article on that. He never said that. That was a lying pin of the scribes, my brother. Amen. Amen. Go read my whole book I wrote on the Alfav. Amen. It'll totally clear that lie out of your mind. He would never claim such blasphemous claims to be equal to his father. * Because he's our brother, the overcomer. He's our brother, the overcomer. And we will and we will stand with him. those 144,000 other lambs on that mountain because come on now and that's why and that's why he said I'm your fellow lamb. I I'm your fellow servant. I'm your fellow brother. I sit in the midst of the congregation. * Glory to Yahweh. Glory to Yahweh. Glory. Glory. He had the spirit of prophecy. Why? Because he gave us the true sayings of Yahweh. Nowhere in scripture did Yosua say he was the Alfa or the Alpha and the Omega. Only Satan wants that. That's it. I've proven and textual critics have proven that those Greek manuscripts did not contain that statement in Revelation 1 and 111. * It was added by the lying pen of the scribes. And as a matter of fact, here's my entire article on that, brother. Uh let me just copy and paste it just to go read this. Everyone needs to re-examine the alpha and the omega. Let's see how I boy these line pen of the scribes. I'm gonna put it in the chat for you right here, Elder. * Oh, it's too long. Okay. Won't let me do it. All right. Uh I don't know how to get it to Messenger. You know what? No, hang tight. Here we go. Copy. Hang tight. I'm gonna put a link to my Facebook article I wrote on it. There it is right there. Now, uh, wait, is that's not Is that correct? No, that's not. Yeah. * Uh, go to the second one. Click that, brother Joseph. See if it comes up for you. It says page not found. It's a Don't worry, pastor. Just send it to me in Messenger. Okay. All right. But that was a great question. I'm glad you brought it up because so many people are deceived. Yesua said he was the alpha and the omega. * He was the the allev. And these messianic teachers need to quit teaching that mess. It's the lying pin of the scribes. You know what? Let's do it this way. Here we go. Right there. Share FHTV. Right. Right there, brother. You see their re-examination of alpha and omega. I see. Yep. I see it. December 7th. I'll find it on your page. Thank you. * It's right there. Just type in Alftov. Thank you, pastor. Amen. You're more than welcome. See, you just heard the spirit of prophecy on that lie. I just get tired, pastor fighting against all these people when I do, you know, when I'm on TikTok and they come up and they and I know the truth. I know that he's not, but they keep fighting me and fighting me. * These trinitarians, they are the They're so stubborn and mental gymnastics and they just won't give it up. They won't give it up, pastor. I know. What do you think I feel every day, my brother? Amen. Amen. I know the struggle. I know it's real. But I can promise you one thing, beloved. If I had time right now, I would teach on the olive top. Get Dr. * uh Dr. Far Alvette's book, The Hebraic Tongue Restored, and he gives clear explanation of the meaning of these individual Hebrew letters. And on page 98, he disproves completely this was lying pin of the scribe. By the way, for those that have not seen my video called the lying pin of the scribes, you need to watch it. * It's somewhere out there. This is the spirit of prophecy. This testimony is a courtroom testimony. It's a confession. What is a testimony? A confession of truth. Raise your right hand. Do you swear the testimony you're about to give to be the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth. That is the testimony of Yeshua. Truth. Truth. * The spirit of prophecy is truth and evidence and evidence of the truth. As a matter of fact, in Revelation 1 and2, John had the same spirit of prophecy. The Bible said he bore witness to the word of Yahweh and the testimony of Yeshua, the Messiah. And that's who Satan is making war with. She got it right there. As I get ready to close part one, for those that are going to leave, to agree with the word of Yahweh, whatever it says is the spirit of prophecy. * To eat the scroll, to meditate until it becomes a revelation, not just a doctrine, but a revelation is to breathe the breath of prophecy. You see, Yesua is the word of God. But you and I are the words of God. I hope you caught that. Yesua is the word of Yahweh. We are the words. So we're the logos, too, pastor. We are the ghost. * We're the collective thoughts that he had from the beginning. Yesua is the completeness. He is the word. We're the words. Here a little, there a little. The words coming together. But they all came together in Yeshua. His voice echoes in us. His law lights our path. His spirit guides with fire. And as Israel was led by the prophet, so is his remnant led today. * Still following the cloud, still marching by fire, still echoing the call to return to Mount Zion. Still running with the horses, running with fire. We're still running with a cloud. And we don't get tired. God bless you. Thank you for joining me today. That was part one. Those that want to stay, I still have some more to go over. * Those that need to go, you can catch the replay. We love you very much. We're going to take another 10-minute break, class. Oh, Elder Meadows, I didn't see your hand. Go right ahead. I'm sorry. Do I need to repent for singing that song, that ascribe song? I said Alf and Tav is uh Yah. Is that wrong? No. No. No. Okay. * No, it is Yah. Okay. Okay. It's not Yesua. Right. Okay. I just was I was like, "Oh, God, do I need to repent? I'm sorry." No, ma'am. No, because there is another verse that calls Yah Alfav and that is correct. But everyone uh needs to read that article. Maybe I'll teach it soon. But uh that was a gross addition to the Bible from the lying pin of the scribes to give that title to Yesua the Messiah. All right. * Tennessee, we love you. Yes, go ahead. Hi. Um, I also wanted to let everybody know that I put a link in the chat to a video that you actually did about Alf. Well, thank you, darling. I forgot I did a video about Did I do a video on that? I sure did. There you go. The abominations. Oh, wow. * Uh, Brother Anwitch, there you go. If you'd rather watch the video, whatever you prefer. I I got it. Thank you, Sister Camery. That was boy, Sister Camry, I forgot I made that video. Thank you. So, and there's the one to the lying pin of the scribes as well. All right, you know what? Why don't we do this? Elder King also dropped it in the chat for the Bible study right here. * Excellent. Let's do this. Some of you might need a lunch break. So, let's do 30 minutes. Okay, 30 minutes for those that need to grab lunch. By the way, you don't feel obligated to come back, but part two is better than part one. All right. Thank you very much.
