Looking Ahead In 2024

Since 2019 the world has been in extreme chaos. The things many preachers have been preaching about how Satan and his earthly minions want to shut down the “TRUE CHURCH”. It actually happened when we yielded to man made mandates during the “so called Pandemic.” “Let me tell you as the old song says, “Prayer Bells of Heaven Beats a man made law.” They may put us in jail as they did Paul and Silas. They put Peter in jail too and chained him between four soldiers, but the church gathered in a secret place and began to pray for him. GOD dispatched an Angel to the jail. That Angel walked right in the old jail like he owned it. Those bars opened to him and he woke Peter up and the shackles fell off. Peter walked right out and went to the “Meeting” and found the door locked, but he kept knocking. A young girl looked out and could not believe what she saw, “IT WAS PETER!” In her excitement she forgot to unlock the door. (Acts 12:3-19) This year of 2024 is about the open door and or opening of doors.

The Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, began this past September 15-17 of 2023. Now our Calendar began the New Year on January One. On the Jewish Calendar this year is 5784 while our Calendar is 2024. The numbers 5784 total 24. Because the Jewish Calendar is mainly based on the Lunar Cycles while our Calendar is based on the Solar Cycles. However, every so often both Calendars intertwine and this is the year when they do. The numbers 2 and 4 when added together equal 6 which is the number of man and the number 4 alone is the number of the earth. GOD formed man from the dust of the earth. (Gen.2:7) The fourth letter of the Hebrew Alphabet if pronounced “Dalet” (day-let) and it means “DOOR” and “Poor” and “To Lift Me Up.” depending on its use. Proverbs 18:21 tells us that “death and life are in the power of the tongue.” It also tells us that those that love it and indulge in it shall eat the fruit …” Here is how all three of these meanings work together: If you are poor in spirit (humility) (Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the Kingdom Of Heaven.” (Matt.5:3) or even physically poor and in dire need all you need to do is to turn to JESUS, WHO IS THE DOOR, (John 10:9) AND HE WILL LIFT YOU UP.

John was told to write to the church at Philadelphia:” … I Have set before thee an OPEN DOOR and NO man can shut it …” (Rev.3:8) I know the world is in total chaos and people are living in fear just as the Bible said it would be.

And at that time shall Michael stand up, the Great Prince Who standeth for the children of thy people and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, even to that same time. And at that time thy people SHALL BE DELIEVERED, EVERY ONE WHO SHALL BE FOUND WRITTEN IN THE BOOK.” (Dan.12:1) “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars, and upon the earth DISTRESS OF NATIONS WITH PERPLEXITY, THE SEA AND THE WAVES ROARING.” (Luke 21:25)

Perplexity means: unaccountable confusion, bewilderment, puzzlement, bafflement, and incomprehension.” That verse also said the “sea and the waves would roar.” All we need to do is just look around at all the things we are calling “natural disasters” and we see this verse coming in full view. Just as Pharaoh did to Moses and Aaron, the “children of the Devil” are asking, “Just who is this GOD that I should believe HIM?” Pharaoh could never bring himself to admit that all the natural disasters that stood against all his gods in all the plagues was anything other than something he could fix himself. Today all the “so-called wise” and most world leaders, including many claiming to be Christians, try to explain these disasters away as being a part of their god “Climate Change.” As Shadrach, Meshach, and Abenego refused to bow to the King’s command of bowing to his idol, we must not bow to this “god of the children of the devil” and that means we do not support it nor even bid these people “GOD SPEED” for when we do we become a partaker of their evil deeds. (II John 1:11) I say this often, “Yes, I do believe in climate change for it changes four times a year whether I like it or not and I have lived a long time and it keeps doing the same way year after year. My plastic straws have never changed a single thing in over 75 years. My gas guzzler of a car has not upset GOD and made HIM cough or sneeze or nervous. The wood that made my house has been replaced with new growth of trees many times over in my life. Yes, they can come and take my car or house or food away, but MY JESUS will be still walking in the fire with me. Nebuchadnezzar’s wise men said the ONE IN THE FIRE WITH Sahadrach, Meshach and Abednego LOOKED JUST LIKE THE SON OF GOD. “OH, HE IS THE FOURTH MAN IN THE FIRE!” “When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers they shall not overflow thee; and when thou walkest through the fire, THOUS SHALT NOT BE BURNED, NEITHER SHALL THE FLAME KINDLE UPON THEE.” (Isa.43:2)

This will be the year of many doors and there may well be doors inside of doors. Unless we enter into the doors as they open we will miss out on the blessings GOD has prepared for us. GOD sent birds to feed Elijah and when the Brook dried up GOD sent him to the widows house and there GOD preserved Elijah and the widow and her son. Because they entered when the door opened. JESUS sent Peter to fish to get the money for their taxes. JESUS said if we enter through the DOOR the very first thing we will find is “Salvation” and then we will be free to go in and out and find good pastures (blessings). (John 10:9-10) We should think in these terms that we are HIS sheep and we are living in a “well watered land.” In HIM is a fruitful place and a green place. But, JESUS also said in the same scriptures that our enemy is there to kill, steal and destroy, but HE (JESUS) has come to give us life and that more abundantly. This is saying there are “false doors that will open to us too.” These doors may appear to have things much desired, but are not from the LORD. Sometimes you will not get your heart’s desire because your desire is completely out of tune with “GOD’S PLAN FOR YOU.” We usually have our priorities all out of whack. Now none of these things are wrong, but we put them ahead of GOD way too often: (we want a car, a job, a bank account, a house, to get married, have children, build a business) now what should come first? “But seek ye FIRST the KINGDOM of GOD AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, and ALL THESE THINGS SHALL BE ADDED UNTO YOU.” (Matt.6:33)

There is only one door and HIS NAME is JESUS. JESUS is the complete HOUSE of GOD. Noah’s Ark had only one door too. When Noah and his family entered it we are told “GOD shut the door.” There was only “one Ark, with three decks, with one door, and one window, and it had only one family inside.” When you are running back and forth trying to find the next door to open, stop, for the LORD will open it for you. Listen to what Moses said to the Children of Israel: “And Moses said unto the people, ‘Fear ye not! STAND STILL AND SEE THE SALVATION OF THE LORD, WHICH HE WILL SHOW TO YOU TODAY; FOR THE EGYPTIANS WHOM YE HAVE SEEN TODAY, YE SHALL SEE THEM AGAIN NO MORE FOR EVER.” (Ex.14:13) The next door will open automatically before you as the jail doors did for Peter. Just be patient: “In your patience, possess ye your souls.” (Luke 21:19)

If the “DOOR” (Dalet) is closed then that means GOD didn’t open it. If it is open then the Devil all his fallen angels cannot close it. “PRAISE THE LORD!” Dalets stay open when opened by JESUS and they stay closed when closed by HIM too. Sometimes HE leads in paths that we have no answers as to where we are headed down here on this earth, but never fear HE knows just where we are going. HE told Abraham to leave his home and go to a land HE would show him. Abraham had never been there before but he trusted GOD. Women love to have some form of stability, so can’t you just hear Mrs. Abraham saying, “Okay, Abe, just when did you come up with this ridiculous idea? All our friends and families are living here in this land and besides we have large herds and 318 servants and we are raising your Nephew, Lot, and we need to think about your dear old Dad trying to make that trip to a place you don’t even know where it is.” It is a good thing they weren’t living in our modern world for she would have raised her voice about a thousand octaves and the neighbors would have been calling the Police for a domestic disturbance. If you are truly convinced the Dalet (Door) is just for you then it means you are not quiet ready for the “Open Door Blessings.”

ead your Bible and keep reading it till something “Jumps off its pages and sticks in your heart, soul, and mind.” During the night GOD will write the words of HIS TRUTH in your MIND. Before you run off to make your mark in the world just because some “smooth talking” “supposed prophet (profit)” said he or she has a “word from GOD” for you. If GOD has not already spoken this to you then it is NOT from GOD. You should NOT do anything until you have walked through the DOOR (Dalet).

Blue Prints of GOD FOR 2024 (5784 AM)

I believe we are standing on the very threshold of the greatest “Dalet Opening” (DOOR) in the history of the world. I believe we will see an unparalleled fulfillment of the Ancient Prophets and also of JESUS and HIS Apostles. We will see GOD’S RECOMPENSE, RESTORATION, AND RESURRECTION OF THINGS WE HAVE BEEN TOLD ARE FOREVER GONE, SUCH AS THE OFFICE OF THE APOSTLE. “And HE (the HOLY GHOST) gave some, Apostles, and some Prophets, Evangelists, and some Pastors and Teachers. For the perfecting of the Saints, for the work of the Ministry, for the edifying of the BODY of Christ. Till we ALL come in the Unity of the Faith, and of the Knowledge of the SON OF GOD, unto a perfect man, UNTO THE MEASURE OF THE STATURE OF THE FULNESS OF CHRIST.” (Eph.4:11-13) We are going to see a Jubilee Year level of Spiritual Provision and this will shift us from being considered the “tail” and move us to the “head.” The church will be UN-muzzeled because those who know the TRUTH and speak the TRUTH and those who stand with Israel will be the wise ones and will come forth and shine like the stars. (Dan.12:3)

Love NOT the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world the LOVE of the FATHER IS NOT IN HIM.” (I John 2:15) In by-gone ages the things that made the church different from the rest of the world have systematically been removed and replaced and with it the POWER of GOD has ebbed away. The church has fallen into the trap of the “twisting the WORD of GOD” that the Devil used from the beginning. Even many in the church have resorted to looking at I Cor.13:8 and saying the prophets are all gone and speaking in tongues has stopped. This verse is not about what will be gone in the end times, but is about how the “LOVE of GOD Transcends all obstacles.” “Prophecy and speaking in unknown languages and special knowledge will become useless. BUT LOVE WILL LAST FOREVER.” (I Cor.13:8 New Living Translation, NLV) My answer to all the skeptics for years has been “One Question.” “Is there still knowledge on this earth?” Of course they all answer in the affirmative. Then if all the other parts of this verse are done away with then how come knowledge is still around? It comes down to the “Dalet” which is the Open Door. The first gift placed in the church is “Wisdom” and the second is “Knowledge.” (I Cor.12:7-11) Wisdom encompasses “Understanding.” “Wisdom is the principle thing; THEREFORE GET WISDOM, AND WITH ALL THY GETTING GET UNDERSTANDING.” (Prov.4:7) I like to compare “wisdom” as being a two-legged Ostrich. That Ostrich can’t fly, but what he lacks in flight he makes up in running. That ostrich can fight too and most predators fear him. He is said to hide his head when fearsome danger comes close. That, my friend, is a “Child of GOD” who is filled with the HOLY GHOST. We are NOT able to fly right now, but one day we will. So, in the mean time you will just have to excuse our running and if you don’t want to run with us then get out of the way because we are coming through. As I often told my cousins who were members of the group called “JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES.” “NO! GOD is not deaf, but HE sure isn’t nervous either.” I often think of my oldest Great Grand Daughter. They bought her a little chair to sit in and she wanted a Bible all her own, so they got her one. She sat in her chair and opened the Bible and at that time she could not read but she opened it and said, “JESUS LOVES ME, THE END!” She closed it and I have said many times that it is what it is all about in this “GOOD OLD BOOK” from Cover to Cover, from “Generations to Revolutions.” Here a child can even understand it while college graduates struggle with it. “And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called the WAY OF HOLINESS; the unclean shall NOT pass over it, but it shall be for those the wayfaring men, though fools (unlearned) SHALL NOT ERR THEREIN.” (Isa.35:8-10)

The “Dalet” is still open to all who want to come and be refreshed in the “Cool Clear Waters” that flows from Calvary’s Spring. (Ezk.45:1-7) Ezekiel said the waters got so deep that apparently the “Flood Gates” of GOD opened as the “Dalet.” Let me tell you that you cannot swim in “ankle deep water” and not very well in knee deep water, and not perfect in waist deep water, but in water over your head you can. As the old song asks, “If I never had a problem, how would I know GOD solve it?” As another old song says, “ No matter what the case may be, I know my GOD is going to fix it for me, because I’ve got confidence.”

And Now for the Rest of the Story

The number 5784 is an important year. Again let us add the numbers 5+7+8+4=24 and 2×4=8 the number of restoration. (There were 8 people on the Ark and JESUS arose on the 8th day.) And 2+4=6 the number of man for man was made on the 6th day. And 5+7=12 and 8+4=12 and there were 12 tribes of Israel and 12 Apostles of JESUS and when all are added together it equals 24 the number of the Elders around GOD’S THRONE. And when we multiply them we get 144 a very important number in the “Last Days” prophecies. “Ye are built upon the foundation of the Apostles and the the Prophets, JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF BEING THE CHIEF CORNERSTONE.” (Eph.2:20) In these verses we find the use of the mathematical system known as the “Dozenal” from where we get the word “dozen.” It is based on 12 and not on 10 or 9 as our systems are.

The year 1967 coincided with the years 5727-5728 on the Hebrew Calendar. That was the year when Israel regained the city of Jerusalem. Jerusalem is not mentioned anywhere in the Torah the first five books of our Old Testament. It is mentioned for the first time in Joshua 10:1 when King Adonizedek was King, in reality if studied out we find this man was actually Melchizedek,to whom Abraham paid tithes of all the spoils he took from 14 different kings.(Talk about double portions!) Melchizedek was Shem, the son of Noah who was still alive, if we run the numbers of their ages. How could this man been a Priest of the Most High GOD when there was no priesthood set up yet? He is also called “King of Salem” the original name of Jerusalem and he was called King of Righteousness. He is also spoken of as not having a father or mother, end of days and we are told that this was concerning his Priesthood. Now here was a man that could tell Abraham all things from the beginning. This man also knew all about “New Beginnings” for he watched it transformed before eyes.

Jerusalem is mentioned 623 times throughout the rest of the Tanach, all of our Old Testament. Notice this “righteous judgment” has a numerical value of 623. “And I will restore thy (Israel’s) judges as at the first, and thy counselors as at the beginning, AFTERWARD THOU SHALT BE CALLED, THE CITY OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, THE FAITHFUL CITY.” (Isa.1:26) Let me quote a few lines of an old hymn: “Glorious things of THEE are spoken, Zion city of our GOD: HE whose WORD cannot be broken,Formed thee for HIS OWN ABODE, On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake Thy sure repose? With salvation’s walls surrounded; Thou mayst smile at all THY foes.” The man that wrote that was the same man that wrote “Amazing Grace,” John Newton. He also wrote his own Epitaph before he died on December 31, 1807. “John Newton, clerk, once an infidel and libertine, a servant of slaves in Africa, was, by the rich mercy of our LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST, preserved, restored, pardoned, and appointed to preach the faith he had long labored to destroy.” The name ZION is mention about 150 plus times in the Old testament and refers to the city of Jerusalem. (I Kings 8:1; Psalm 9:11; Psalm 51:18) “Lift up your heads, O ye gates (dales) and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors (dales) AND THE KING OF GLORY SHALL COME IN. WHO is this KING of GLORY? THE LORD STRONG AND MIGHTY, THE LORD MIGHTY IN BATTLE!” (Pa.24:7-8)

The Hebrew word for “LIFE” is mentioned 144 times throughout the Bible. Jerusalem is mentioned 144 times in the New Testament in 141 verses and twice in three verses with JESUS saying it in two of them and the other verse is Acts 1:12.

As we look all around the world some people are in a panic wondering what they are going to do since their jobs are shutting down, food prices soaring along with shortages, fuel prices soaring, violence on all sides. Nothing safe or sacred anymore. GOD is blasphemed by hundreds of false prophets flooding the air ways and the Internet. They “hawk” all their self help books as the answer to all our problems. They lie on GOD and say HE spoke when HE hasn’t said a word to them. They make up great sounding stories about going to heaven and all those lies. Here is what JESUS said: “And NO man hath ascended up to heaven, but HE that came down from heaven, EVEN THE SON OF MAN WHICH IS IN HEAVEN.” (John 3:13) I do not know where GOD took Enoch and Elijah, but it certainly was up to where GOD’S THRONE is. Paul said he didn’t even know if he was in the body or not and he got caught up to a third heaven, and he never claimed he saw anything only he said he heard things that were not lawful for him to speak. NOW GET ALL THAT SETTLED IN YOUR MIND AND STOP BELIEVING THESE FALSE PROPHETS AND LIARS AND BUYING THEIR BOOKS AND THEIR VIDEOS AND MAKING THEM ALL RICH. Both can’t be telling the TRUTH, either they are LIARS or JESUS is a LIAR. I am very very sure if Enoch and Elijah were up in the THRONE ROOM, JESUS would have known it.

Do not despair or follow off after “smooth sounding words” for this is the “Day of Restoration” the “DALET” is open for us to move right into the “Great and Mighty Things of GOD.” Do not a mistake when GOD promises us good things, HE is NOT always speaking about wealth. I wonder what would happen to all those “Prosperity Preachers” if JESUS really sent them out? HE sent 70 and listen to what HE told them: “Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes, and salute no man by the way.” (Luke 10:4) They will “pull legs out” to prove they are called of GOD. I have seen some people get their legs pulled out in almost every revival. I can’t figure out how their legs always go back one shorter than the other. According to their actions GOD only delivers on a temporary basis. And you can believe this, GOD WEIGHS OUR ACTIONS. “Talk NO more so exceedingly proudly: Let NOT arrogance come out of your mouth: FOR THE LORD IS A GOD OF KNOWLEDGE, AND BY HIM ACTIONS ARE WEIGHED.” (I Sam.2:3) If you really want BLESSED then follow Psalm chapter one for it says it all. Everyone speaks of living in a “Bed of Roses” but I do not want to for Roses all have thorns. I want to live in the “Shelter of HIS Arms.”
