As I read the Word and observe the lifestyle of the early fathers, I see a mental picture of them all alone on a clear summer night gazing into the heavenlies, perhaps contemplating, wondering what was the
meaning of the stars. We know that they were shepherds, and spent the night in the fields with their flock to protect them, what a perfect time to draw close to our Creator and observe His handiwork. Little did they know that the heavens were making the
predestined plan of God known to earth!
Or --- , maybe they knew more than us today! As we read from the Psalms it sure seems King David knew more than most of God's people as a whole in this age. Here could possibly be why.
Satan has done his very best to hold mankind's attention to
his physical world. Therefore what his twisted knowledge has taught man as they studied the stars is for the most part lies. Instead of
seeing the story of God, His people and all creation in the heavenlies, he has mankind looking for their own destiny, concerned only with their life in what is known as astrology. Those trained by the dark side of the supernatural in other words want to know what constellation they were born under according to the zodiac to understand the influence that constellation has on their life according to Satan's knowledge. They look to creation for answers rather than the Creator.
In truth, the
heavenlies declare the glory of God, and reveal His predestined plans for humanity and all creation. In other words, as we experience the dangers, the pitfalls, the ugliness of this world, we can look up into the heavenlies with spiritual insight and see that our Father has a far greater plan for His children, this planet and all on it! Yes, like our shepherd fathers, the children today are looking, questioning, seeking our
original place when man was in sync, perfectly in line, a part of the whole of creation and had a flawless role in the universe.
Could it be the early fathers were in a way closer to the supernatural and even God than us today? They did not have the busyness of the modern world, life was much more tranquil. In other words, they had more time to pursue the meaning of the stars. For instance it is thought that the early Egyptians learned about the constellations and stars from Joseph, the son of Jacob. So this makes it appear the knowledge of the stars was handed down through the ages from Adam on through the Jewish sages. Satan has conscientiously hidden or downplayed their meaning and has therefore taken away their importance and
the truth they reveal to modern man. Makes one wonder, did Isaac learn about them from Abraham, and Jacob from Isaac? We know King David certainly had thoughts as we see from the Psalms.
Psalm 19:1-5
1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork.
2 Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard.
4 Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
As we are seeing today the stars, the constellations also tell the story of Jesus, the
House or tabernacle of David and the House of Israel.
You see, as we begin to manifest Father's predestined plan on earth as the
eighth day children of God we will be a reflection, a mirror image of the story in the heavens. I say this because as each truth is revealed, we have discovered that it was there all along in the heavenlies as divine proof of that truth! In other words, mankind cannot argue with God's knowledge as revealed, it is actually backed by the stars and the constellations formed by them!
Genesis 15:5
5 Then
He brought him outside and
said, “
Look now toward heaven (see the story in the stars), and
count the stars if you are able to number them.” And
He said to him, “
So shall your descendants be.”
(Points of light and innumerable.)
I guess you could say God’s predestined plan is mirrored from the heavens to earth for direction and from the earth to the heavens as proof or fruit of how much we understand!
The two realms are once more becoming one through God and His family!
So again, as the constellations in the heavens are telling the story of God, so creation on earth through Abraham's stars is doing the same. These individuals,
filled with the light of the Word, are points of light forming earthly constellations that reflect the plan of God from earth. It’s almost like as the knowledge of God covers the earth, the terrestrial constellations become clearer and begin to take form.
Because of this, Satan and his knowledge will soon have no place on earth as depicted by the celestial constellation Draco. Babylon will no longer have any influence over earth as depicted by Serpens and the constellation Andromeda.
Now we are beginning to understand. The victory is ours! Yeshua restored everything on the planet to its original perfection. He suffered for our iniquity, took our sickness and diseases to the grave with Him and through His resurrection overcame death! It was finished, the veil of deception rent from top to bottom, and we are a people that believe! Now it's our turn, we must manifest that victory on earth!
Understand that at the end of the seventh day,
God's light began to grow dim. No fresh manna was served. Why? Because God was ready to move His people onto the eighth day. It was seven thousand years, one week in God's timing and He was moving His people into the next week. We were therefore for a while deprived of spiritual food and
undernourished. We were not adequately fed by the world's church and had only moldy bread to eat. Father wanted us to see the foolishness of Satan's knowledge, and feel the defeat of not being guided by the Word.
In other words, we were no longer spiritually nourished by the light of the Son. So much as plants must be nourished by the sun, we too were in dire need of truth, the light of God's Word! Think about it, we are now slowly being
restored by God's knowledge, enlightened by the Word, the Son, who is the light of man.
John 1:1-4, 9
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 He was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.
4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
9 That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.
If we keep watering God's little plants across the earth, even if they look weak, lukewarm, half dead as described in the account of the seven churches of Revelation, with
living waters, and the light of the Son maybe the little trees of righteousness will spring back up! You see, the light of the Son, God's knowledge, like the celestial sun, is growing brighter and brighter every day, bringing new life to some, burning those that won't change out. So the terrestrial Son is restoring life to God's people. The body of the bride is even coming together as she is drawn to the brilliant rays of light through the new insight of the
eighth day knowledge. She is getting stronger,
becoming bone of His bone, flesh of His flesh, making her complete, to become the selfsame body as Christ!
The Word tells us the heavenly sun and moon were given for signs and seasons. They each have their own jobs in the heavenlies. In the natural the sun gives life to all living things on earth and the moon keeps the earth's orbit and systems balanced. In other words, she’s what keeps the earth on course. Likewise
the terrestrial moon, the Bride, full of the light of the Son, is beginning to stabilize all things and bringing balance back to all creation. She is bringing them into sync as in the beginning. Because of Satan's challenge against God for supremacy, and Adam and Eve's folly of following in his rebellion, neither the earth or God's Bride have been doing their job correctly! They had only Satan's warped knowledge to work from. Therefore the earth, all creation on it including our physical bodies have deteriorated to the shape they’re in today. But, remember the cross! It’s all restored! The knowledge of God is being spread across the earth, which is how Prophet Isaiah said the restoration of all creation would come about!
Again, as the Bride becomes one with the Son, she too begins doing her part in bringing stability to the planet and righting the synchronization of earth as was originally planned and designed by God.
Again, the earth mirrors the heavens. Our physical mortal bodies are also very much affected by the Sun and the Moon. You can see it very plainly when there’s a full moon. People and animals that are
out of sync become erratic. The world calls those that are drastically out of balance lunatics from the word lunar. Actually they are just very unsettled, unstable animals or people, and affected as the moon pulls and draws to regulate all things.
So, if you turn this scenario into a picture of the condition of man today, you can see how the lack of the sun, or the lack of the light of truth will leave us weak, feeble and very unstable.
The seventh day Bride by no means was bone of His bone nor did she have any
power or authority to bring stability and harmony to God’s people. Therefore all creation has been out of sync, starting with Eve! So in other words from Adam and Eve till now, man along with all creation has been out of sync with the rest of the universe! A study of man's history shows the result of man trying to walk out of line, out of harmony with God and trying to manage on his own.
The light of Truth is getting brighter however, and we can now see how the human race was fooled, deluded by
a creature who was himself corrupted and deluded. Through his pride and arrogance Satan actually thought he could be like the one who had created him! How foolish is that, but then how foolish was man to rebel against God's word!
Here is the good news of the gospel however, we’re children of the resurrection! When we’re
born again through Jesus, we’re a part of Him. We were not born through His resurrection as the old church, we are not a part of Adam. We are a completely
new generation! In fact, there’s no need for us to ever be resurrected, again, we are born through Christ and have therefore already experienced resurrection!
Romans 6:4
4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life (death and resurrection).
That is why I think the greatest thing we can do to grow into the Lord's likeness is to
stay out of our past, and forget our life before resurrection. This is necessary if we want to bring the spiritual sun up so we can be nourished by it, renewed and restored by it.
Then, according to the Word, as His Bride we must assemble together to be bone of His bone. We must
have the same vision, be bound together tightly in order to bring things back into sync. Because this Sunlight comes from the Word, from God’s knowledge it will restore life to all creation, bringing the Bride to her completion. All will be back in sync once again and
all creation can now be gathered comfortably into Christ, who is our
Promised Land. All restored creation can rest safely in their chamber, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy at Isaiah 26:20.
Isaiah 26:20
20 Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, until the indignation is past.
So, to accomplish this and be
exempt from the end time wrath of God, we now understand there must be the Groom, the body of Christ, like the sun, and there must be the Bride, like the moon. We also see many of God's people are like little plants that have been kept in the shade too long. They need to be brought out into the light of God’s knowledge. And again, the Bride through her wisdom, through God's knowledge, will right things, will
bring things back into balance, back into sync, harmony. But friends, it will be a struggle.
Satan is going to do his best to
keep the illusion before us that God's Word is of no effect, His promises not so, and His covenants lost. It is very hard to see through his illusions to grasp hold of Christ's victory. But guess what? The enemy cannot destroy the story in the heavenlies! It is all there for us to see and believe and follow!
If we think clearly, the heavens and what is portrayed there is so much greater than
this dreamworld that Satan has instituted on this planet. Furthermore, as we gain truth, the brighter the Son, the Word shines, and little trees of righteousness have begun popping up all over the planet and are uniting! And, not only that, but as the Bride has grown in truth,
feasted at Father's table at all ten feasts, the seven holy convocations, she's understanding who and what she is! Now as she takes a stand for what she knows, her light also becomes brighter, and she begins to bring balance, harmony to the planet. Things are slowly blending with the rest of the universe, all according to God's plan!
Here is another thought, we can see the physical sun in this realm is seven times its heat according to science. Well so is the Son of God, the Word, God's knowledge, through the seven holy convocations, reflecting a light that is seven times greater on earth! As this light, this truth spreads across the earth it will generate so much spiritual heat that evil will be exposed and
cannot remain in the light, the world will not be able to stand. Those of God's people that are full of the Son, the Word will
prevail, conquer, overcome and claim the earth back for God's people.
Malachi 4:1-3
1 “For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, and all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble. And the day which is coming shall burn them up,” says the Lord of hosts, “That will leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But to you who fear My name the Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings; and you shall go out and grow fat like stall-fed calves.
3 You shall trample the wicked, for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day that I do this,” says the Lord of hosts.
We must all pray for this, and take our part in achieving it. I'm sure we all want to be a part of Ephesians 1:10-11.
Ephesians 1:10-11
10 that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him.
11 In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,
The evidence of this truth of course is in the sky for us to put our faith in. Look up and see Cassiopeia, the Bride! Her stars show she is the glorious daughter, the free one. Another of her stars is an evergreen branch. Do you see why so much pagan worship has centered around the evergreens? And if we're looking for the groom, just look up and see Sirius. He's the brightest star, the glorious one, the bright and shining, the ruler, preeminent one and Prince of the right hand! Sirius is also
the morning star, and the brightest star in the sky!
Revelation 22:16
16 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”
Did you know that the sun itself is also known as
the morning star? That's just a very small taste of the story of God and His relationship and love for mankind.
Did you ever wonder how things have gotten so confused and distorted or how the
many religions that we see on earth today came about? There should be one faith, yet there are so many different perspectives that it's hard to have any faith in any of them! I think that is why there are so many people today that are atheists. For three hundred years after the death of Christ, truth was taught and kept before God's people. The faith was called “the way of Yeshua”. With the influence of the Roman Empire however, things were changed drastically! The emperor Constantine destroyed the truth and brought chaos as he mixed Christianity with pagan religions. For instance he changed
God's Sabbath to Sunday worship. The whole universe according to God's design is set up on a
cycle of seven and is a time of rest and reset. Sunday worship does not give our bodies the chance for renewal as God intended. Satan loves it! Through this one lie alone he has weakened the nations as was prophesied in Isaiah 14!
This man also made it a law that Christians could not attend the Jewish feasts, making them disobedient to Leviticus 23, where God said mankind was to
attend the feasts to all generations. Instead he implemented his own feasts that coincided with the pagan religions. For instance he
proclaimed Christmas on the date of the Saturnalia, which was a celebration of the sun god. Anyone that has looked into that pagan holiday would be appalled at the things that were done, and to make that Christ's birthday is despicable. Number one, we don't know when His birthday was, and if He wanted it celebrated He would have had it recorded. Number two, to let His name even be mentioned with that pagan holiday is beyond evil!
Where God's people were correctly celebrating the cross at
Passover, they were now directed to celebrate Easter on the date that the pagans celebrated the fertility goddess Ishtar. This is how colored eggs etc. became a part of Passover. He had already banned Jewish Christians from taking communion the day before Passover.
Changes were then made to the Jewish calendar to align with the Sunday rest day. If his changes clashed with truth he just buried the truth, covered it over with lies and in a little time it was not remembered and no-one even questioned it anymore. Emperor Constantine proclaimed himself a Christian as well, while building arches and statues in honor of pagan gods and goddesses. This quote unquote godly man killed his wife by boiling her in hot water and poisoned his son because he was getting too interested in the affairs of his empire. This lovely Christian did not want to be baptized until the end, because he knew he would sin as ruler of that empire, and so on his deathbed he was baptized so that he would be forgiven for all that he had done. He believed his own false doctrine! Much of the church today still adheres to the Sunday worship. Many of God's people celebrate Santa Claus, attend drunken office parties in Christ's honor, and sit as a family around the evergreen tree today. So-called Christians unknowingly color eggs, give baskets of candy in honor of Ishtar, the fertility goddess. Didn't you ever wonder how Easter baskets and
the Easter bunny had any significance to the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross for us. In fact if you look up in the sky, you will see the stars in the rabbit mean enemy. Since these drastic changes that were instituted in the 300's AD are still dominant in the world's church today, makes you wonder if Constantine, like
King Tyre, was a host for Satan himself in attempt to destroy truth and make a mockery of Christ's sacrifice.
But here is our stability. If we look up in the sky we will see the truth there, he loses! Draco the dragon, with his head always pointing down is the one trampled upon! One of his stars is the subtle, another the head of the one to be destroyed. Another star is called the liar, the fraud! And like I said, his head is always falling over the horizon! He loses to Christ who can be seen in so many of the constellations!! As Jesus is known as
the Lion of Judah, we can see Him as Leo the lion in the sky! As the
victorious Ram we see Him as Aries, on and on. Oh yes, Father did not leave us out of His handiwork. We can be seen as those possessed by the Judge, the village of booths, cluster of gems and ripened grapes in the Pleiades found in the victorious bull Taurus. And by the way, those of us that assemble together, according to the stars are the left horn on that bull as well. Horn stands for power, so as
the power of God was taken from us, it is returned as we see these truths. Did you know our chambers is up there too that we are to enter into for
safety, shelter and peace? It's Argo, a huge ship, foreshadowed by a little ark thousands of years ago, also at a great time of change.
In closing, like the early fathers, we too are drawing closer to God as we look into His story manifested in the heavenlies. As we as a body on this planet look up, do you realize that
the two realms are becoming one as it was in the beginning before Adam and Eve fell? Satan tried his best to warp our thinking, and prevent this from happening. But here we are, manifesting the predestined plan of God, a whole new generation of people, the beginning of the new heaven and the new earth!
