1497 Sickness Prayers of Hezekiah revealed ancient people serve LORD to destroy kings as Assyrian Sickness of GW 1 revealed PCG as Jacob receive their own land Eze.28.26 as Tyre and Assyrian are NO MORE

BEGINNING OF 5^TH MONTH

High Sabbath Nu. 28;9-14

22^nd July 2026

Rom_9:28  For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth.

SICKNESSES of Rulers sometimes are prophecies

Prophecy --2Ki_20:19  Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days?

Fulfillment--Isa_39:8  Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.

·       Hezekiah was given the words by LORD to prophesy of PEACE and TRUTH (from Death and Resurrection of LORD) to be known to chosen ISRAEL during these times (for ALL ISRAEL are NOT ISRAEL, Rom. 9; 4-7)

Jer. 33 RECORDS JESUS CHRIST coming as BRANCH OF DAVID bringing PEACE and TRUTH

So is ANSWER to HEZEKIAH’S prayer to destroy Kings of Assyria as in history would be NO MORE, FULFILLS in PRESENT TIMES, served by ancient people as Ships of Tarshish Isa.14; 25,26, also served by Gentiles as 1^st Born of Poor, Isa. 14; 30,32.

When the word “Bamah” was mentioned by R.D. --I was wondering whether it is written in bible, (when I was a new member of PCG). And I was very sick with also high Fever, and I thought WE ARE STRONG when WE are WEAK-- 2Co_12:10 Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

·       At that time, I keep bible under the bed, and I sit on a small chair,  read and if the ‘nurses looking after my aunt -in -law’, disturbs me, I put the bible under bed, and speak to them, for they DO NOT LIKE my reading the bible! So I was happy I was having fever, closed door, I took the bible, and it TURNED to Eze. 20;29,  read of sin of Bamah of fathers’ sin repeating!---then I proceeded with Lev 5;1—that revelation of Ezekiel . 20;29 did lead me to SERVE GOD from THAT TIME!

·       A few days ago, on 18^th July Sabbath, GW 1 my sister, fell very ill, and almost in one day, SHE BECAME PERFECT—I thought much of her illness, as at that time I was reading and writing of SICKNESSES of KINGS of OLD, mentioned in this article.

·       And I was revealed what I write below, with relevant scriptures.

Just as HEZEKIAH’S sickness and prayers, that were PROPHECY for us,

Today through SICKNESS of GW 1, I came to know Eze. 28; 25,26 THROUGH WORK OF US, the GENTILES, that ISRAEL tribes would GET INHERITANCE as for EPHRAIM, Gen 48; 20, AND HOUSES and VINEYARDS, to DWELL CONFIDENTLY, Eze. 28; 25,26

Rom 9:28  For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. 

Read in writings below..

1Pe_4:2 no longer live the rest of time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

2Co_5:16 - henceforth know we no man after flesh: yea, though we known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.

·      CHRIST is NO MORE  to be known as A HUMAN

·      HE is SPIRIT, 2 Co 3;17

·      HIS WORDS are SPIRIT—those baptised to Him receive HOLY SPIRIT, AC 2;38,39, THEY UNDERSTAND by HIS INSPIRATION –There is a SPIRIT in man Inspiration of LORD gives understanding Job 32.8, all scripture given by inspiration of God, profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness 2 Ti 3.16.  

·      SO SPIRIT of CHRIST teaches profitable doctrine—FOR CORRECTION and INSTRUCTIONS in RIGHTEOUSNESS

Rom_9:28  For he will finish the work, and cut it short in righteousness: because a short work will the Lord make upon the earth. Rom 9:29  And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha. 

·      ISRAEL PROFANED SABBATHS --Eze 22:8  Thou hast despised mine holy things, and hast profaned my sabbaths. 

·      But the Sabbath keeper as a SEED served the LORD IN HIS WORK, Rom.  9; 28-29

SO ALL PEOPLE of GOD needs to BE BAPTISED (then as NOT PROFANED) could SERVE LORD JESUS CHRIST receiving HOLY SPIRIT through Ac 2;38,39

·      TO understand HIS WORDS that INSPIRE US, to be SPIRITUAL MINDED, as HE MAKES US SPIRITUAL, 1 Co 15;44—if you DO NOT RECEIVE HOLY SPIRIT it is BLASPHEME against SPIRIT  ---Mt. 12; 31-blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

·      That is DO NOT REFUSE baptismal words of Rom. 6, Gal 3;26-29, Col 2; 11-17, HOLY SPIRIT given by baptism, Ac 2;38  

·      Then you would UNDERSTAND HIS COUNSELS

2Co_5:16 - henceforth know we no man after flesh: yea, though we known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more—(as a natural man).

·      Unless we receive HOLY SPIRIT to understand WORD OF GOD, we ERR in UNDERSTANDING!

·      You would understand from even the writings of this ARTICLE that we CANNOT RECEIVE HIS COUNSELS given to MANY in father’s times, unless LORD gives THE SPIRITUAL HINTS to understand!

·      I quite meekly say, I had the Rom. 6 baptism in 2011 and PASSOVER strengthens more–and since then I learnt more and more.

Read from 1 Co 11—of PASSOVER and how MANY COULD GET SICK –but LORD comes to give UNDERSTANDING –He would show everyone of their FAULTS, SINS, to forgive through Rom. 6.

1Co 11:24  And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 

1Co 11:25  After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. 

1Co 11:26  For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. 

1Co 11:27  Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 

1Co 11:28  But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 

1Co 11:29  For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body. 

People of God could get SICK when HE CORRECTS HIS PEOPLE---

1Co 11:30  For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep. (here—sleep means DIE if you DO NOT UNDERSTAND HIS PASSOVER to HIS CHURCH WITHOUT SIN!)

·       Blood of NEW COVENANT is to BE ESTABLISHED in NEW ARK seen in Rev. 11; 19. Rev 11:19  And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail. 

1Co 11:31  For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. 

1Co 11:32  But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world. 

1Co 11:33  Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another. 

1Co 11:34  And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come. 

COMING back to SHEBA, SEBA, TARSHISH…

Psa 72:10  The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts. 

Psa 72:11  Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him. 

Psa 72:12  For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper. 

Psa 72:13  He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy. 

Psa 72:14  He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight. 

Psa 72:15  And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised. 

Psa 72:17  His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed. 

Psa 72:18  Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things. 

Psa 72:19  And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen. 

Psa 72:20  The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended. 

·      So David who keeps SABBATHS and NEW MOONS prayed for GENTILES as SHEBA, SEBA, TARSHISH, Ps 72; 10

THAT PROPHECY?

Isa. 60; 6-9

And read all of Isa. 60---THE GENTILE WORK of TWO WITNESSES

Would serve PCG as ISRAEL –to GLORIFY WORK of JESUS CHRIST ..

The Future Glory of Israel

Isa 60:1  Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. 

Isa 60:2  For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. 

Isa 60:3  And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising. 

Isa 60:4  Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side. 

Isa 60:5  Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee. 

Isa 60:6  The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of the LORD. 

Isa 60:7  All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory. 

Isa 60:8  Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their windows? 

Isa 60:9  Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the LORD thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee. 

Isa 60:10  And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favour have I had mercy on thee. 

Isa 60:11  Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that men may bring unto thee the forces of the Gentiles, and that their kings may be brought. 

Isa 60:12  For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted. 

Isa 60:13  The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious. 

Isa 60:14  The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel. 

Isa 60:15  Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through thee, I will make thee an eternal excellency, a joy of many generations. 

Isa 60:16  Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob. 

Isa 60:17  For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace, and thine exactors righteousness. ---

·       Isa. 60; 9--ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them

·       Isa. 60; 6-Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall shew forth the praises of the LORD. 

From where are TARSHISH and SHEBA

getting GOLD?

They REPRESENT families of NOAH

Gen 10:28  And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba, 

Gen 10:29  And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan. 

·      Connection of Tarshish and Ophir---1Ki_22:48  Jehoshaphat made ships of Tharshish to go to Ophir for gold:

Gen 10:30  And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east. 

Gen 10:31  These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations. 

Gen 10:32  These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood. 

Gen 2;10,11--

Gen 2:10  And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. 

Gen 2:11  The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;

Gen 2:12 -And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone. –gold and precious stones are good in Havilah—where the RIVER from EDEN part into FOUR (ADAM’S PEAK in SRI LANKA parts to four rivers---KELANI, WALAWE, MAHAVELI, KALU.

·      Those rivers are around districts of Ratnapura, and Nuwara-Eliya, where there were found GOLD—Ratna means “GOLD” and Ratnapura is famous for PRECIOUS STONES.

Isa 60:18  Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise. 

Isa 60:19  The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light unto thee: but the LORD shall be unto thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory. 

Isa 60:20  Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD shall be thine everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended. 

Isa 60:21  Thy people also shall be all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified. 

Isa 60:22  A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in his time. 

FROM a PAST ARTICLE—

Written in No. 1007-Read in www.restoringcaptivity.com

“Ophir” as “Nuwara Eliya-Sri Lanka” was recorded in an English history book,  I had read, (of Sir William Smith) –I also had read in a book of gemology that a man named Ophir from Hyderabad, India who was a specialist in gems, had visited Nuwara Eliya for gold!

A report on NUWARA ELIYA GOLD

 Written by Professor Atula Senaratne

 Professor of Geology, University of Peradeniya

The native gold found in the mine had shapes varying from nuggets to dendritic form and sizes up to several centimeters in length. During the British rule of the country gold has been mined (Le Mesurier, 1893) from a vein like body in Ramboda (Fig. 1), which had a concentration of 28g per tonne of ore and also they found small quantities in the Nuwara Eliya area. Gold in small amounts has been reported (Ceylon Administrative Reports: Part IV, 1905)

In modern Sri Lanka, two main episodes of gold mining are evident.

The first in 1850s in Mahaoya area,

 the second in early 1900 in Nuwara Eliya among tea plantations

 and the third being the last in 2014 Gold rush at Kelaniya river, not too far away from Colombo. In 1903, Dr. Coomaraswamy, the Government Mineralogist of then Ceylon, has reported to the Government of Her Majesty, Gold has been found in extractable quantities in rivers from many areas of Sri Lanka.

·      It is an interesting fact that I had been conceived in my mother around Dec. 1948, in NUWARA ELIYA DISTRICT, in the largest tea estate in Sri Lanka (born in Aug.1949).  (we shifted when I was around 4-5 years)

·      My sister GW 1, six years younger to me,  was born in Nov. 1955, in another area.

I am DEEPLY MOVED in GLORIFYING ALMIGHTY CHRIST our LORD, WHO had predestined ALL OF US ACCORDING to HIS WORKS! PRAISE be to JESUS CHRIST our LORD, the WONDERFUL COUNSELLOR, AMEN.

·      By that we understand that ALL PREDESTINED had been COUNSELLED from their BIRTHS, even from the times of conception!

Here is how Gerald Flurry was ordained

A prophet before conception,

And then to ROOT OUT, PULL DOWN

And also TO BUILD AND TO PLANT,

That is Eze. 16;59-60

Jer 1:4  Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 

Jer 1:5 -Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

 Jer 1:10 --See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant. 

·      PCG  would be ESTABLISHED in EVERLASTING COVENANT, Eze. 16;60

THE TWO WITNESSES

Jer 3:14  Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: 

Jer 3:15  And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding. 

LORD divided THE TWO WITNESSES

As Sarah (free woman) and Hagar (in Bondage)

AT THAT TIME of THE PRESENCE of TWO WITNESSES,

PCG HAD BROKEN COVENANT, Eze. 44: 7, therefore, PCG  would be

SHAMED, Eze 16;59

They forgot COVENANT

Jer 3:16 -And it shall come to pass, when ye be multiplied and increased in the land, in those days, saith the LORD, they shall say no more, The ark of the covenant of the LORD: neither shall it come to mind: neither shall they remember it; neither shall they visit it; neither shall that be done any more. 

·      We ought to SEE the POWER of ALMIGHTY CHRIST  who establishes HIS RIGHTEOUS COVENANT!

Through the POWER OF CHRIST OUR LORD

The TWO WITNESSES acted their ROLE, LORD was behind their works

(IT IS A LESSON FOR ISRAEL –it is An ALLEGORY, Gal 4;24)

To prove HOW SHIPS OF TARSHISH served HIS COVENANT to teach ISRAEL

To bring them back as in Isa 60;9

PCG  has to be NEXT in POSTERITY as Ephraim, Gen. 48;20,

Ships of Tarshish was POSTERITY, Ps. 22;30-31,

After JOSEPH, Gen. 45;7

Gal 4:22  For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman. 

Gal 4:23  But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise. 

JERUSALEM now is having ABOMINATIONS, Eze. 16;2,

Eze. 22;1, 2, IT IS AS Spiritual  Egypt, Rev. 11;8

Gal 4:24  Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar. 

Gal 4:25  For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children. (when you read Eze. 16;2,Eze. 22;1-11 we see JERUSALEM WHICH IS NOW –is PHILADELPHIA CHURCH OF GOD who had COVENANT, Eze. 16;8 and broke it, at BAMAH, Eze. 44;7 –it is GW 2 who knew and informed of BAMAH ABOMINATION to Gerald Flurry!

THE FREE WOMAN, Sarah, is MOTHER of THOSE IN JERUSALEM ABOVE

Gal 4:26 -But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all. 

·      BUT THEY BECAME SINNERS, Eze. 22;1-11, as BROTHERS going to NEIGHBOUR’S WIVES---Eze. 33; 25-26 –

·      LORD gave wives to OTHERS, Jer. 8;10 ---these THINGS HE DID to make KNOWN TO BE CLEANSED as WHITE, by LORD’S SACRIFICE, Rev. 14;4, Rev. 7; 14-17

·      BECAUSE LORD’S SACRIFICE FORGIVES SINS---when you BECOME BAPTISED UNTO HIS DEATH, Rom.  6:2-7, receiving GIFT OF ETERNAL LIFE, Rom.  6;19-23—we should NOT SIN after that, BUT KEEP ORDINANCES WITHOUT SIN, Col 2;17

Ships of Tarshish was to walk about Zion to declare NEXT POSTERITY (next generation) in Zion, Ps. 48 7-14

Psa 48:7  Thou breakest the ships of Tarshish with an east wind. 

Psa 48:8  As we have heard, so have we seen in the city of the LORD of hosts, in the city of our God: God will establish it for ever. Selah. 

Psa 48:9  We have thought of thy lovingkindness, O God, in the midst of thy temple. 

Psa 48:10  According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness.  (Ps. 45;9—Queen of Ophir stands on RIGHT SIDE of LORD)

LORD’S Judgments make Zion rejoice

Psa 48:11  Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments. 

Zion in JERUSALEM is full of ABOMINATIONS, Eze. 22;8-26 (adulterous) even Malachi Purification on DAY OF LORD, Mal 3;1-5

Psa 48:12  Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof. 

·      Towers of dead H.W. Armstrong are ABOMINATIONS  before the RIGHTEOUS LIVING KING of GLORY!

·      DEATH could NOT KEEP JESUS CHRIST in TOMBS!

·      THEREFORE we are RAISED as NEW PEOPLE without SIN, when we receive BAPTISM UNTO HIS DEATH, Rom.  6; 3-7

Rom 6:6  Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 

Rom 6:7  For he that is dead is freed from sin. 

Rom 6:8  Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: 

Rom 6:9  Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. 

Rom 6:10  For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. 

Rom 6:11  Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 

Rom 6:12  Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 

·      We should NOT SIN anymore—LUSTS of father devil NOT TO BE SEEN IN SEED of CHRIST, to be SEED OF ABRAHAM  Gal; 3;26-29

Psa 48:13  Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following. 

·      The EARTH-WORKS (bulwarks) of Philadelphia Church of God would NOT BE ACCEPTED by KING OF THE EARTH!

·      BUT LORD in HIS MERCY, builds PCG to be NEXT GENERATION of Zion, through works of ships of Tarshish, read below!

Psa 48:10  According to thy name, O God, so is thy praise unto the ends of the earth: thy right hand is full of righteousness. 

·       Servant of Ships of Tarshish stands on RIGHT SIDE OF LORD, Ps 45; 9, so SHE TEACHES RIGHTEOUSNESS of CHRIST OUR LORD

Psa 48:11  Let mount Zion rejoice, let the daughters of Judah be glad, because of thy judgments. 

Psa 48:12  Walk about Zion, and go round about her: tell the towers thereof. 

Psa 48:13  Mark ye well her bulwarks, consider her palaces; that ye may tell it to the generation following. 

Psa 48:14  For this God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death. 

Rom 6:10  For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. 

Rom 6:11  Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 

Rom 6:12  Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. 

Rom 6:13  Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. 

Rom 6:14  For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. 

Slaves to Righteousness

Rom 6:15  What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 

Rom 6:16  Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? 

Rom 6:17  But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. 

Rom 6:18  Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. 

·       EACH VERSE should be WELL UNDERSTOOD to RECEIVE HOLY SPIRIT, AC 2;38,39

Rom 6:19  I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. 

Rom 6:20  For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. 

Rom 6:21  What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. 

Rom 6:22  But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 

Rom 6:23  For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. 

WE READ ABOVE Isa. 60, so LORD MADE GENTILES who were as IN Gen 2, 10, as NOAH’S SONS SHEM AND JAPHETH Gen 10

Gen 10:28  And Obal, and Abimael, and Sheba, 

Gen 10:29  And Ophir, and Havilah, and Jobab: all these were the sons of Joktan. 

Gen 10:30  And their dwelling was from Mesha, as thou goest unto Sephar a mount of the east. 

Gen 10:31  These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their tongues, in their lands, after their nations. 

Gen 10:32  These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations: and by these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood. 

MOUNT OF EAST—is ADAM’S PEAK in SRI LANKA

A Lament over the King of Tyre

Eze 28:11  Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 

Eze 28:12  Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. 

Eze 28:13  Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. 

·     I HAD WRITTEN of EDEN as ADAM’S PEAK

ARTICLES ON ADAM’S PEAK SRI LANKA

Read in Nos. 1421 TO 1424 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

Eze 28:14  Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. 

Eze 28:15  Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee. 

Eze 28:16  By the multitude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of thee with violence, and thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. 

Eze 28:17  Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee.

Those words of GOD teaches people of God to be MEEK, RIGHTEOUS, so that THEY DO NOT PROFANE HIS NAME!

Eze 28:18  Thou hast defiled thy sanctuaries by the multitude of thine iniquities, by the iniquity of thy traffick; therefore will I bring forth a fire from the midst of thee, it shall devour thee, and I will bring thee to ashes upon the earth in the sight of all them that behold thee. 

Gerald Flurry would be NO MORE--Eze 28:19  All they that know thee among the people shall be astonished at thee: thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt thou be any more. 

Eze 27:25  The ships of Tarshish did sing of thee in thy market: and thou wast replenished, and made very glorious in the midst of the seas. 

Eze 27:26  Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters: the east wind hath broken thee in the midst of the seas. 

·      EAST WIND was counseled by GOD, Ps 48;7,  for such DESTRUCTIONS of PCG!

Eze 27:30  And shall cause their voice to be heard against thee, and shall cry bitterly, and shall cast up dust upon their heads, they shall wallow themselves in the ashes: 

Eze 27:31  And they shall make themselves utterly bald for thee, and gird them with sackcloth, and they shall weep for thee with bitterness of heart and bitter wailing. 

·       Witnesses in SACKCLOTH, Rev. 11

Eze 27:32  And in their wailing they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and lament over thee, saying, What city is like Tyrus, like the destroyed in the midst of the sea? 

TYRE IS TYRUS—(Eze. 26 to 28 says of DISTRUCTION OF TYRE

PCG  leader AS TYRE---ENRICHED KINGS of EARTH with MULTIUDE OF their BOOKS---Eze 27:33  When thy wares went forth out of the seas, thou filledst many people; thou didst enrich the kings of the earth with the multitude of thy riches and of thy merchandise. 

·      LORD requires HIS ONE BOOK to be STUDIED and not many books, Eccl 12

Prophecy through GENTILE WORKS makes known the FALL OF BOOKS of H. W. Armstrong and Gerald Flurry Eze 27:34  In the time when thou shalt be broken by the seas in the depths of the waters thy merchandise and all thy company in the midst of thee shall fall. 

Eze 27:35  All the inhabitants of the isles shall be astonished at thee, and their kings shall be sore afraid, they shall be troubled in their countenance. 

Eze 27:36  The merchants among the people shall hiss at thee; thou shalt be a terror, and never shalt be any more. 

Tyre is NO MORE—

LORD 23:13  Behold the land of the Chaldeans; this people was not, till the Assyrian founded it for them that dwell in the wilderness: they set up the towers thereof, they raised up the palaces thereof; and he brought it to ruin. 

LORD 23:14  Howl, ye ships of Tarshish: for your strength is laid waste. 

LORD 23:15  And it shall come to pass in that day, that Tyre shall be forgotten seventy years, according to the days of one king: after the end of seventy years shall Tyre sing as an harlot. 

·       LORD. 27 tells of “TYRE” as LORD continued by H. W. Armstrong, LORD. 23;15

Psa 74:9  We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long. 

TYRE as CHERUB, as Watchman, as PROPHET, CEDAR, ASSYRIAN is NO MORE –(as going  towards PERDITION—he did not watch ministry)

TYRE born in LORD, Ps. 87; 4, as ANNOINTED CHERUB, LORD. 28; 12, in EDEN, LORD. 28;13, BUT abundance of TRADING made him SIN, and LORD DESTROYED HIM as COVERING CHERUB, LORD. 28; 16, he was MADE THE WATCHMAN to declare WHAT HE SEES, LORD. 21; 6, ministry sinning through neighbour’s wives, BUT NOT CORRECTED, and LORD refuses to GIVE INHERITANCE, the prophet is WATCHMAN, LORD. 3; 17, LORD. 33;33, but he did not watch SINS OF HIS MINISTRY, LORD. 33; 25-33, in the night, LORD. 21; 11, 12!!---NIGHT IS A TIME OF DARKNESS, Mic. 3.6, DARKNESS is WICKEDNESS, LORD. 4;19---- Those who do not continue to LOVE BRETHREN, as Gentiles FALLING AWAY from FAITH, go to perdition, LORD. 10; 32-39

EVERY ONE AMONG ISRAEL OR STRANGERS, even WOOD HEWERS (wood cutters) are to be in EVERLASTING COVENANT Deut.29—10-18

LORD VISITED TYRE

Isa 23:16  Take an harp, go about the city, thou harlot that hast been forgotten; make sweet melody, sing many songs, that thou mayest be remembered. 

Isa 23:17  And it shall come to pass after the end of seventy years, that the LORD will visit Tyre, and she shall turn to her hire, and shall commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth. 

·       1934-2004 were the SEVENTY YEARS,

·       H. W. Armstrong began, in the END PCG  broke COVENANT through Bamah, Eze. 44; 7

Isa 23:18  And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing. 

·     Therefore LORD had written Ps 45; 12

·     For the gentiles may prepare PRINCES in ALL EARTH—Ps 45;16

Psa 45:9  Kings' daughters were among thy honourable women: upon thy right hand did stand the queen in gold of Ophir. 

Psa 45:10  Hearken, O daughter, and consider, and incline thine ear; forget also thine own people, and thy father's house; 

Psa 45:11  So shall the king greatly desire thy beauty: for he is thy Lord; and worship thou him. 

Psa 45:12  And the daughter of Tyre shall be there with a gift; even the rich among the people shall intreat thy favour. 

Psa 45:13  The king's daughter is all glorious within: her clothing is of wrought gold. 

ALL GENTILES GO BEFORE THE LORD, for

Isa. 60; 6,7, Ps 72; 10,15

Psa 45:14  She shall be brought unto the king in raiment of needlework: the virgins her companions that follow her shall be brought unto thee. 

Psa 45:15  With gladness and rejoicing shall they be brought: they shall enter into the king's palace. 

Psa 45:16  Instead of thy fathers shall be thy children, whom thou mayest make princes in all the earth.

SIDON would be NO LONGER

A PRICKING BRIER,

For Gerald Flurry surrounded by

THORNS and BRIARS, Eze. 2; 5, 6

AND ISRAEL would be GATHERED

SAFELY Eze. 28;

Prophecy Against Sidon

Eze 28:20  Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 

Eze 28:21  Son of man, set thy face against Zidon, and prophesy against it, 

Eze 28:22  And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Zidon; and I will be glorified in the midst of thee: and they shall know that I am the LORD, when I shall have executed judgments in her, and shall be sanctified in her. 

·       Ships of Tarshish sent Judgments of LORD written in Eze. 23; 45-49

Eze 28:23  For I will send into her pestilence, and blood into her streets; and the wounded shall be judged in the midst of her by the sword upon her on every side; and they shall know that I am the LORD. 

Eze 28:24  And there shall be no more a pricking brier unto the house of Israel, nor any grieving thorn of all that are round about them, that despised them; and they shall know that I am the Lord GOD. 

Israel Gathered in Security

LORD WAS SERVED BY GENTILES to BRING IN

PHILADELPHIA CHURCH OF GOD  MINISTRY

And SANCTIFIED as in Eze. 43; 18-27

THEN they SHALL DWELL in LAND

GIVEN TO JACOB

Eze 28:25  Thus saith the Lord GOD; When I shall have gathered the house of Israel from the people among whom they are scattered, and shall be sanctified in them in the sight of the heathen, then shall they dwell in their land that I have given to my servant Jacob. 

Eze 28:26  And they shall dwell safely therein, and shall build houses, and plant vineyards; yea, they shall dwell with confidence, when I have executed judgments upon all those that despise them round about them; and they shall know that I am the LORD their God. 

·     SO WE SEE---JESUS CHRIST AS OF JUDAH, Heb. 7;14, Ge 49; 8-12 sacrificed HIMSELF ON THE CROSS

·     TO SAVE ALL TRIBES

·     And when THEY BELIEVE IN Rom.  6 BAPTISM (DO NOT REFUSE baptismal words of Rom. 6, Gal 3;26-29, Col 2; 11-17, HOLY SPIRIT given by baptism, Ac 2;38 to know LORD’S WONDERFUL COUNSELS)  

So Today through SICKNESS of GW 1, I came to know Eze. 28; 25,26 THROUGH WORK OF US, the GENTILES, that ISRAEL tribes would GET INHERITANCE as for EPHRAIM, Gen 48; 20, AND HOUSES and VINEYARDS, to DWELL CONFIDENTLY, Eze. 28; 25,26

SICKNESSES of Rulers are sometimes prophecies

That FULFILL

Prophecy --2Ki_20:19  Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days?

Fulfillment--Isa_39:8  Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.

Jer. 33 RECORDS JESUS CHRIST coming as BRANCH OF DAVID bringing PEACE and TRUTH

So is ANSWER to HEZEKIAH’S prayer to destroy Kings of Assyria as in history would be NO MORE, FULFILLS in PRESENT TIMES, served by ancient people as Ships of Tarshish Isa.14;25,26

Hezekiah's Illness and Recovery

2Ki 20:1  In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live. 

2Ki 20:2  Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying, 

2Ki 20:3  I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. 

2Ki 20:4  And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying, 

2Ki 20:5  Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD. 

2Ki 20:6  And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake. 

2Ki 20:7  And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered. 

2Ki 20:8  And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day? 

2Ki 20:9  And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees? 

2Ki 20:10  And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees. 

2Ki 20:11  And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz. 

Hezekiah and the Babylonian Envoys

2Ki 20:12  At that time Berodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick. 

2Ki 20:13  And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not. 

2Ki 20:14  Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon. 

2Ki 20:15  And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All the things that are in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them. 

2Ki 20:16  And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD. 

LORD counseled---2Ki 20:17  Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD. 

·       SO A BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY was TO FULFILL

·       Therefore ALL sinned were taken to BABYLON, WITH TEMPLE things, Jer. 52

2Ki 20:18  And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. 

·       EUNUCHS serve their MASTERS WELL, so while serving MASTERS OF BABYLON  ---they SERVE AS SINS OF BABYLON!

Prophecy to fulfill in THESE DAYS as for those who SERVE in JUDAH--2Ki_20:19  Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days?

Fulfillment--Isa_39:8  Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days.

Jer. 33 RECORDS JESUS CHRIST coming as BRANCH OF DAVID bringing PEACE and TRUTH in our times

·   Therefore PROPHECIES of HEZEKIAH in 2 Kin 20;19, fulfills in Isa. 39; 8

Jer_33:6  Behold, I will bring it health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.

Jer 33:7  And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first. 

Jer 33:8  And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me. 

·       Jer 5:8  They were as fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbour's wife. 

·       Jer 5:9  Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this? 

Jer 5:10  Go ye up upon her walls, and destroy; but make not a full end: take away her battlements; for they are not the LORD'S. 

·      Jer 5:11  For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, saith the LORD. 

But PEACE and TRUTH as of CHRIST OUR LORD THROUGH HIS CROSS, Gal 3;1, Rom.  6; 2-23 taught NOW –so King Hezekiah’s prophecies fulfill among us!

Jer 33:7  And I will cause the captivity of Judah and the captivity of Israel to return, and will build them, as at the first. 

David’s way of SERVICE is recorded in 1 Ch 23; 29-32

1Ch 23:29  Both for the shewbread, and for the fine flour for meat offering, and for the unleavened cakes, and for that which is baked in the pan, and for that which is fried, and for all manner of measure and size; 

1Ch 23:30  And to stand every morning to thank and praise the LORD, and likewise at even; 

1Ch 23:31  And to offer all burnt sacrifices unto the LORD in the sabbaths, in the new moons, and on the set feasts, by number, according to the order commanded unto them, continually before the LORD: 

1Ch 23:32  And that they should keep the charge of the tabernacle of the congregation, and the charge of the holy place, and the charge of the sons of Aaron their brethren, in the service of the house of the LORD. 

·       SO SUPPORTERS OF CHRIST OUR LORD to KEEP LORD’S SERVICE s DAVID KEPT, 1 Ch 23; 29-32

Jer 33:8  And I will cleanse them from all their iniquity, whereby they have sinned against me; and I will pardon all their iniquities, whereby they have sinned, and whereby they have transgressed against me. 

Jer 33:9  And it shall be to me a name of joy, a praise and an honour before all the nations of the earth, which shall hear all the good that I do unto them: and they shall fear and tremble for all the goodness and for all the prosperity that I procure unto it. 

Jer 33:10  Thus saith the LORD; Again there shall be heard in this place, which ye say shall be desolate without man and without beast, even in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, that are desolate, without man, and without inhabitant, and without beast, 

Jer 33:11  The voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the voice of them that shall say, Praise the LORD of hosts: for the LORD is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: and of them that shall bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the LORD. For I will cause to return the captivity of the land, as at the first, saith the LORD. 

Jer 33:12  Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Again in this place, which is desolate without man and without beast, and in all the cities thereof, shall be an habitation of shepherds causing their flocks to lie down. 

Jer 33:13  In the cities of the mountains, in the cities of the vale, and in the cities of the south, and in the land of Benjamin, and in the places about Jerusalem, and in the cities of Judah, shall the flocks pass again under the hands of him that telleth them, saith the LORD. 

The Lord's Eternal Covenant with David

Jer 33:14  Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will perform that good thing which I have promised unto the house of Israel and to the house of Judah. 

Jer 33:15  In those days, and at that time, will I cause the Branch of righteousness to grow up unto David; and he shall execute judgment and righteousness in the land. 

Jer 33:16  In those days shall Judah be saved, and Jerusalem shall dwell safely: and this is the name wherewith she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness. 

Jer 33:17  For thus saith the LORD; David shall never want a man to sit upon the throne of the house of Israel; 

Jer 33:18  Neither shall the priests the Levites want a man before me to offer burnt offerings, and to kindle meat offerings, and to do sacrifice continually. 

Jer 33:19  And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying, 

Jer 33:20  Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season; 

Jer 33:21  Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers. 

Jer 33:22  As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me. 

·       ABRAHAM blessed as SAND OF SEA, Gen 22;17, Israel as sand of the sea, Isa.10;22, Rom.9:27, Gog and Magog, devil fought GOD as “sand of sea” Rev 20:7,8, they in lake of fire, dead, judged, Rev.20;13.  Jer 33:22 –seed of DAVID and LEVI as sand of sea

Jer 33:23  Moreover the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah, saying, 

Jer 33:24  Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the LORD hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them. 

Jer 33:25  Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth; 

Jer 33:26  Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them. 

LORD PUNISHED DAVID too by

DEATH OF CHILD of BATHSHEBA.

2Sa 12:15  And Nathan departed unto his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife bare unto David, and it was very sick. 

2Sa 12:16  David therefore besought God for the child; and David fasted, and went in, and lay all night upon the earth. 

2Sa 12:17  And the elders of his house arose, and went to him, to raise him up from the earth: but he would not, neither did he eat bread with them. 

2Sa 12:18  And it came to pass on the seventh day, that the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead:

Jeroboam’s END was PROPHESIED by

DEATH of his son

1Ki 14:5  And the LORD said unto Ahijah, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam cometh to ask a thing of thee for her son; for he is sick: thus and thus shalt thou say unto her: for it shall be, when she cometh in, that she shall feign herself to be another woman. 

·       Jeroboam sent his wife to Abijah the prophet to inquire why son of Jeroboam fell sick

1Ki 14:7  Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over my people Israel, 

1Ki 14:8  And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee: and yet thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes; 

1Ki 14:9  But hast done evil above all that were before thee: for thou hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back: 

1Ki 14:10  Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man taketh away dung, till it be all gone. 

1Ki 14:11  Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the LORD hath spoken it. 

1Ki 14:12  Arise thou therefore, get thee to thine own house: and when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die. 

1Ki 14:13  And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam. 

·       The GOOD THING is ALL of HOUSE of Jeroboam were KILLED, 1 Kin 15; 29

1Ki 14:16  And he shall give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, who did sin, and who made Israel to sin. 

1Ki 14:17  And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah: and when she came to the threshold of the door, the child died; 

1Ki 14:18  And they buried him; and all Israel mourned for him, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by the hand of his servant Ahijah the prophet. 

Nadab son of Jeroboam Reigned in Israel

And during that time, ALL THE

HOUSE OF Jeroboam were KILLED, 1 Ki 15; 29

According to SOME GOOD THING toward the LORD 1 Ki 14; 13

1Ki 15:25  And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned over Israel two years. 

1Ki 15:26  And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin. 

1Ki 15:27  And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel laid siege to Gibbethon. 

1Ki 15:28  Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha slay him, and reigned in his stead. 

1Ki 15:29  And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according unto the saying of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite: (In 1 Ki 14; 13)

1Ki 15:30  Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger. 

2Ch_32:24  In those days Hezekiah was sick to the death, and prayed unto the LORD: and he spake unto him, and he gave him a sign.

Hezekiah's Pride and Achievements

2Ch 32:24  In those days Hezekiah was sick to the death, and prayed unto the LORD: and he spake unto him, and he gave him a sign. 

2Ch 32:25  But Hezekiah rendered not again according to the benefit done unto him; for his heart was lifted up: therefore there was wrath upon him, and upon Judah and Jerusalem. 

2Ch 32:26  Notwithstanding Hezekiah humbled himself for the pride of his heart, both he and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the wrath of the LORD came not upon them in the days of Hezekiah. 

2Ch 32:27  And Hezekiah had exceeding much riches and honour: and he made himself treasuries for silver, and for gold, and for precious stones, and for spices, and for shields, and for all manner of pleasant jewels; 

2Ch 32:28  Storehouses also for the increase of corn, and wine, and oil; and stalls for all manner of beasts, and cotes for flocks. 

2Ch 32:29  Moreover he provided him cities, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance: for God had given him substance very much. 

2Ch 32:30  This same Hezekiah also stopped the upper watercourse of Gihon, and brought it straight down to the west side of the city of David. And Hezekiah prospered in all his works. 

2Ch 32:31  Howbeit in the business of the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, who sent unto him to enquire of the wonder that was done in the land, God left him, to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart. 

2Ch 32:32  Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, behold, they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 

2Ch 32:33  And Hezekiah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the chiefest of the sepulchres of the sons of David: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem did him honour at his death. And Manasseh his son reigned in his stead.

2Ki 19:22  Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel.

Isa 37:16  O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth. 

Isa 37:17  Incline thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib (king of Assyria in the time of Hezekiah) , which hath sent to reproach the living God. 

HEZEKIAH’S PRAYER in HIS time

2Ki 19:17  Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have destroyed the nations and their lands, 

2Ki 19:18  And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them.

Isa 14:25  That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders.

READ and SEE how very many KINGS of Assyria

(Some written below) Destroyed many nations of

Kingdom of ISRAEL –

(When ISRAEL and JUDAH were separated)

2Ki_15:19  And Pul the king of Assyria came against the land: and Menahem gave Pul a thousand talents of silver, that his hand might be with him to confirm the kingdom in his hand.

2Ki_15:20  And Menahem exacted the money of Israel, even of all the mighty men of wealth, of each man fifty shekels of silver, to give to the king of Assyria. So the king of Assyria turned back, and stayed not there in the land.

2Ki_15:29  In the days of Pekah king of Israel came Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and took Ijon, and Abelbethmaachah, and Janoah, and Kedesh, and Hazor, and Gilead, and Galilee, all the land of Naphtali, and carried them captive to Assyria.

2Ki_16:7  So Ahaz (of Judah) sent messengers to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, saying, I am thy servant and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, which rise up against me.

2Ki_16:8  And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of the LORD, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.

2Ki_16:9  And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him: for the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew Rezin.

2Ki_16:10  And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, and saw an altar that was at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the workmanship thereof.

2Ki_16:18  And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry without, turned he from the house of the LORD for the king of Assyria.

2Ki_17:3  Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria; and Hoshea became his servant, and gave him presents.

2Ki_17:4  And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea: for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt, and brought no present to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by year: therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison.

2Ki_17:5  Then the king of Assyria came up throughout all the land, and went up to Samaria, (of ISRAEL) and besieged it three years.

2Ki_17:6  In the ninth year of Hoshea the king of Assyria took Samaria, and carried Israel away into Assyria, and placed them in Halah and in Habor by the river of Gozan, and in the cities of the Medes.

2Ki_17:24  And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon, and from Cuthah, and from Ava, and from Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel: and they possessed Samaria, and dwelt in the cities thereof.

2Ki_17:26  Wherefore they spake to the king of Assyria, saying, The nations which thou hast removed, and placed in the cities of Samaria, know not the manner of the God of the land: therefore he hath sent lions among them, and, behold, they slay them, because they know not the manner of the God of the land.

2Ki_17:27  Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let them go and dwell there, and let him teach them the manner of the God of the land.

THEREFORE (prayer of King Hezekiah continued---Isa 37:20  Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD, even thou only.

The Remnant of Israel Will Return

TO GOD ALMIGHTY

Isa 10:20  And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. 

Isa 10:21  The remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God. 

Isa 10:22  For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness. 

Isa 10:23  For the Lord GOD of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land. 

Isa 10:24  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian: he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. 

Isa 10:25  For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction.

Rom 9:17  For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth. 

He is Compared to ASSYRIAN

Eze. 31;1-3

Pharaoh to Be Slain

Eze 31:1  And it came to pass in the eleventh year, in the third month, in the first day of the month, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 

Eze 31:2  Son of man, speak unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and to his multitude; Whom art thou like in thy greatness? 

Eze 31:3  Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches, and with a shadowing shroud, and of an high stature; and his top was among the thick boughs. 

Eze 31:4  The waters made him great, the deep set him up on high with her rivers running round about his plants, and sent out her little rivers unto all the trees of the field. 

Eze 31:5  Therefore his height was exalted above all the trees of the field, and his boughs were multiplied, and his branches became long because of the multitude of waters, when he shot forth. 

Eze 31:6  All the fowls of heaven made their nests in his boughs, and under his branches did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and under his shadow dwelt all great nations. 

Eze 31:7  Thus was he fair in his greatness, in the length of his branches: for his root was by great waters. 

Eze 31:3  Behold, the Assyrian was a cedar

Eze 31:8  The cedars in the garden of God could not hide him: the fir trees were not like his boughs, and the chesnut trees were not like his branches; nor any tree in the garden of God was like unto him in his beauty. 

·       Ezk_27:24  These were thy merchants in all sorts of things, in blue clothes, and broidered work, and in chests of rich apparel, bound with cords, and made of cedar, among thy merchandise.

Eze. 27 DESCRIBES the FALL of TYRE—

·       Cedar is also Tyre, King Tyre (The GOOD King of Tyre, HIRAM served THE TEMPLE BUILT by King Solomon)

·       But This Assyrian, the PHARAOH , COMPARED to CEDAR is HAUGHTY, PROUD AGAINST JESUS CHRIST THE GOD of HEAVEN AND EARTH--

Zep 2:13  And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like a wilderness. 

Zep_2:14  And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; their voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work.

·       Zec_11:2  Howl, fir tree; for the cedar is fallen; because the mighty are spoiled: howl, O ye oaks of Bashan; for the forest of the vintage is come down.

Eze 31:9  I have made him fair by the multitude of his branches: so that all the trees of Eden, that were in the garden of God, envied him. 

Eze 31:10  Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because thou hast lifted up thyself in height, and he hath shot up his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height; 

Eze 31:11  I have therefore delivered him into the hand of the mighty one of the heathen; he shall surely deal with him: I have driven him out for his wickedness. 

MIGHTY ones are the GENTILES

Eze 31:12  And strangers, the terrible of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him: upon the mountains and in all the valleys his branches are fallen, and his boughs are broken by all the rivers of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone down from his shadow, and have left him. 

Eze 31:13  Upon his ruin shall all the fowls of the heaven remain, and all the beasts of the field shall be upon his branches: 

Eze 31:14  To the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves for their height, neither shoot up their top among the thick boughs, neither their trees stand up in their height, all that drink water: for they are all delivered unto death, to the nether parts of the earth, in the midst of the children of men, with them that go down to the pit. 

Eze 31:15  Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him. 

Eze 31:16  I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to hell with them that descend into the pit: and all the trees of Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, shall be comforted in the nether parts of the earth. 

Eze 31:17  They also went down into hell with him unto them that be slain with the sword; and they that were his arm, that dwelt under his shadow in the midst of the heathen. 

Eze 31:18  To whom art thou thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of Eden? yet shalt thou be brought down with the trees of Eden unto the nether parts of the earth: thou shalt lie in the midst of the uncircumcised with them that be slain by the sword. This is Pharaoh and all his multitude, saith the Lord GOD. 

Judgment on Arrogant Assyrian

Isa 10:5  O Assyrian, the rod of mine anger, and the staff in their hand is mine indignation. 

Isa 10:6  I will send him against an hypocritical nation, and against the people of my wrath will I give him a charge, to take the spoil, and to take the prey, and to tread them down like the mire of the streets. 

Isa 10:7  Howbeit he meaneth not so, neither doth his heart think so; but it is in his heart to destroy and cut off nations not a few. 

Isa 10:8  For he saith, Are not my princes altogether kings? 

Isa 10:9  Is not Calno as Carchemish? is not Hamath as Arpad? is not Samaria as Damascus? 

Isa 10:10  As my hand hath found the kingdoms of the idols, and whose graven images did excel them of Jerusalem and of Samaria; 

Isa 10:11  Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, so do to Jerusalem and her idols? 

Isa 10:12  Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks. 

Isa 10:13  For he saith, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom; for I am prudent: and I have removed the bounds of the people, and have robbed their treasures, and I have put down the inhabitants like a valiant man: 

Isa 10:14  And my hand hath found as a nest the riches of the people: and as one gathereth eggs that are left, have I gathered all the earth; and there was none that moved the wing, or opened the mouth, or peeped. 

Isa 10:15  Shall the axe boast itself against him that heweth therewith? or shall the saw magnify itself against him that shaketh it? as if the rod should shake itself against them that lift it up, or as if the staff should lift up itself, as if it were no wood.

Isa 10:16  Therefore shall the Lord, the Lord of hosts, send among his fat ones leanness; and under his glory he shall kindle a burning like the burning of a fire. 

Isa 10:17  And the light of Israel shall be for a fire, and his Holy One for a flame: and it shall burn and devour his thorns and his briers in one day; 

Isa 10:18  And shall consume the glory of his forest, and of his fruitful field, both soul and body: and they shall be as when a standardbearer fainteth. 

Isa 10:19  And the rest of the trees of his forest shall be few, that a child may write them.

LORD would BE TERRIBLE to PEOPLE WHO WALK WITH PRIDE—who have IDOLS, and gods of earth Zep 2:11  The LORD will be terrible unto them: for he will famish all the gods of the earth; and men shall worship him, every one from his place, even all the isles of the heathen. 

·     LORD sees what everyone DOES!

Zep 2:12  Ye Ethiopians also, ye shall be slain by my sword. 

Zep 2:13  And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and destroy Assyria; and will make Nineveh a desolation, and dry like a wilderness. 

Zep 2:14  And flocks shall lie down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: both the cormorant and the bittern shall lodge in the upper lintels of it; their voice shall sing in the windows; desolation shall be in the thresholds: for he shall uncover the cedar work. 

·       Assyrian in GOD’S LAND is ALSO compared to CEDAR, and PHARAOH, Ezekiel  31; 1-3.

Zep 2:15  This is the rejoicing city that dwelt carelessly, that said in her heart, I am, and there is none beside me: how is she become a desolation, a place for beasts to lie down in! every one that passeth by her shall hiss, and wag his hand. 

·       So LORD says of Gerald Flurry who said—In Royal Vision -PENTECOST 2007---Gerald Flurry wrote that he is  god with capital “G” --“My office---which is really God’s office”- (“That Prophet” page 70 p 1,2,3)

LEARNING FROM SICKNESSES of KINGS of JUDAH

Asa king of Judah did good, and ERRED, died of diseased Feet for pride, 2 Ch 16; 12-13

Jehoram killed his brethren, and princes of ISRAEL, as he made Judah and JERUSALEM to commit fornication and he died receiving a great sickness of bowels, (Bowels fell out) –2 Ch 21: 4-6, 11, 2 Ch 21: 12-15

King Hezekiah’s illness and recovery –sign of shadow, 2 Kin 20;1-11 and receiving a PROPHECY that his issue (his generations) would be taken to BABYLON, 2 Kin 20; 17—

Then Hezekiah said—IS IT NOT GOOD if PEACE and TRUTH be in MY DAYS (in his generations, ) 2Ki 20:19  Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days? 

·      The MEANING of 2 Kin 20;19 is JESUS CHRIST would bring PEACE and TRUTH as in a generation of HEZEKIAH

THIS is as A PROPHECY during time of JEZEBEL and AHAB of “DAY of JEZREEL is GREAT for LORD and NEW GOVERNOR, read in No. 1484 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

·      1484 Jezebel devised to kill Naboth of Jezreel 1 Kin 21 Jehu in 1 Kin 19.16 and in Hos 1.4 Ended Jezebel and Baal worship and Day of Jezreel is GREAT for LORD and New Governor Hos 1.11

Hezekiah's Illness and Recovery

WHICH IS PROPHECY in Isa. 36, 37, 38

That King of Assyria would be NO MORE

As written in Isa. 14; 24-27 as ISRAEL’S REMNANT

TAUNTS (DISGRACE LORD) in BABYLON,

Isa. 14; 3-23, therefore

King of BABYLON is a PROVERB, Isa.14;4

Israel's Remnant Taunts Babylon

Isa 14:3  And it shall come to pass in the day that the LORD shall give thee rest from thy sorrow, and from thy fear, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve, 

Isa 14:4  That thou shalt take up this proverb against the king of Babylon, and say, How hath the oppressor ceased! the golden city ceased! 

·      Golden city JERUSALEM having ABOMINATIONS, Eze. 16; 2, princes shed blood, defile SABBATHS, and commit fornication, Eze. 22; 1-11

·      Thus Golden city CEASED, the WORDS fulfill in THIS GREAT CITY, Rev. 17.17,18, the CITY which became A GREAT HARLOT, “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH” Rev. 17;5

ASA son of Abijah who died of DECEASED FEET

Asa Reigns in Judah

2Ch 14:1  So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In his days the land was quiet ten years. 

2Ch 14:2  And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God: 

2Ch 14:3  For he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves: 

2Ch 14:4  And commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment. 

2Ch 14:5  Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the images: and the kingdom was quiet before him. 

2Ch 14:6  And he built fenced cities in Judah: for the land had rest, and he had no war in those years; because the LORD had given him rest. 

2Ch 14:7  Therefore he said unto Judah, Let us build these cities, and make about them walls, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us; because we have sought the LORD our God, we have sought him, and he hath given us rest on every side. So they built and prospered. 

ASA did WELL, 2 Ch 15;8 (Put away Idols)

 2Ch 15:7  Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded. 

2Ch 15:8  And when Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominable idols out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from mount Ephraim, and renewed the altar of the LORD, that was before the porch of the LORD. 

Asa Removed his mother being queen who had idols, 2 Ch 15;16

2Ch 15:16  And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he removed her from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove: and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron. 

But Asa did ERR, when a SEER told him that he relied NOT ON LORD and King of Syria escaped, 2 Ch 16; 2,7

Asa was DISEASED in his FEET and DIED, he sought NOT ON LORD, but on Physicians, 2 Ch 16; 12-13.

2Ch 16:12  And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians. 

2Ch 16:13  And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign. 

2Ch 16:14  And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had made for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices prepared by the apothecaries' art: and they made a very great burning for him. 

Jehoram killed his brethren, and princes of ISRAEL, as he made Judah and JERUSALEM to commit fornication and he died receiving a great sickness of bowels, (Bowels fell out) –2 Ch 21: 4-6, 11, 2 Ch 21: 12-15

Jehoram Reigns in Judah

2Ch 21:1  Now Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And Jehoram his son reigned in his stead. 

2Ch 21:2  And he had brethren the sons of Jehoshaphat, Azariah, and Jehiel, and Zechariah, and Azariah, and Michael, and Shephatiah: all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel. 

2Ch 21:3  And their father gave them great gifts of silver, and of gold, and of precious things, with fenced cities in Judah: but the kingdom gave he to Jehoram; because he was the firstborn. 

2Ch 21:4  Now when Jehoram was risen up to the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself, and slew all his brethren with the sword, and divers also of the princes of Israel. 

2Ch 21:8  In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king. 

2Ch 21:9  Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him in, and the captains of the chariots. 

2Ch 21:10  So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time also did Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers. 

2Ch 21:11  Moreover he made high places in the mountains of Judah, and caused the inhabitants of Jerusalem to commit fornication, and compelled Judah thereto. 

A curse came to Jehoram

2Ch 21:12  And there came a writing to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of David thy father, Because thou hast not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat thy father, nor in the ways of Asa king of Judah, 

2Ch 21:13  But hast walked in the way of the kings of Israel, and hast made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to go a whoring, like to the whoredoms of the house of Ahab, and also hast slain thy brethren of thy father's house, which were better than thyself: 

2Ch 21:14  Behold, with a great plague will the LORD smite thy people, and thy children, and thy wives, and all thy goods: 

2Ch 21:15  And thou shalt have great sickness by disease of thy bowels, until thy bowels fall out by reason of the sickness day by day. 

LORD SMOTE Jehoram in his BOWELS---

2Ch 21:18  And after all this the LORD smote him in his bowels with an incurable disease. 

2Ch 21:19  And it came to pass, that in process of time, after the end of two years, his bowels fell out by reason of his sickness: so he died of sore diseases. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning of his fathers. 

2Ch 21:20  Thirty and two years old was he when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem eight years, and departed without being desired. Howbeit they buried him in the city of David, but not in the sepulchres of the kings. 

King Hezekiah’s illness and recovery –sign of shadow, 2 Kin 20;1-11 and receiving a PROPHECY that his issue (his generations) would be taken to BABYLON, 2 Kin 20; 17—

Then Hezekiah said, 2 kin 20;19—IS IT NOT GOOD if PEACE and TRUTH be in MY DAYS (in his generations)

Prophecy that his generations) would be taken to BABYLON, 2 Kin 20; 17— 2Ki 20:17  Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD. 

2Ki 20:18  And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. 

And HEZEKIAH said 2Ki 20:19  Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days? 

Hezekiah's Illness and Recovery

WHICH IS PROPHECY in Isa. 36, 37, 38

That King of Assyria would be NO MORE

As written in Isa. 14; 24-27 as ISRAEL’S REMNANT

TAUNTS in BABYLON, Isa. 14; 3-23, therefore

King of BABYLON is a PROVERB, Isa. 14;4

2Ki 20:1  In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live. 

2Ki 20:2  Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying, 

2Ki 20:3  I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. 

2Ki 20:4  And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying, 

2Ki 20:5  Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD. 

2Ki 20:6  And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake. 

2Ki 20:7  And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered. 

2Ki 20:8  And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day? 

2Ki 20:9  And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees? 

2Ki 20:10  And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees. 

2Ki 20:11  And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz. 

Sennacherib Invades Judah

Isa 36:14  Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you. 

Isa.36;14 means saying Hezekiah’s

Words in 2 Ki 20;19 would NOT FULFILL

Which means PRESENT DAY LEADERS

Are AGAINST JESUS CHRIST

Who brings PEACE and TRUTH, 2 Kin 20;19, by

CRUCIFIED CHRIST (the TRUTH, Gal 3;1)

And HEZEKIAH said 2Ki 20:19  Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in “my days”? 

·     My days means—“in the time of a GENERATION of HEZEKIAH”

Isa 36:1  Now it came to pass in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah, that Sennacherib king of Assyria came up against all the defenced cities of Judah, and took them. 

·       Isa. 14 discusses ASSYRIAN, Isa. 14; 24-26

A messenger from King of Assyria

Rabshakeh keeps saying that HEZEKIAH’S words are VAIN—

Assyrian king has STRENGTH for WAR

That is NATURE OF ASSYRIANS, who

Are AGAINST COUNSELS OF GOD

Read such in Isa. 36

Isa 36:2  And the king of Assyria sent Rabshakeh from Lachish to Jerusalem unto king Hezekiah with a great army. And he stood by the conduit of the upper pool in the highway of the fuller's field. 

Isa 36:3  Then came forth unto him Eliakim, Hilkiah's son, which was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, Asaph's son, the recorder. 

Isa 36:4  And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? 

·       Rabshakeh messenger of king of Assyria, vs 2—requires to tell HEZEKIAH why he TRUST in 2 Kin 20; 19 –Hezekiah’s words—“Is it not good, if peace and truth be in “my days”

Isa 36:5  I say, sayest thou, (but they are but vain words) I have counsel and strength for war: now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me? 

·       Rabshakeh says HEZEKIAH’S words are VAIN—Assyrian king has STRENGTH for WAR!

READ of BATTLE of LORD with present day rulers of LORD’S CHURCH in No. 1492—in www.restoringcaptivity.com ---No. 1492 Fasting for BATTLE OF LORD David said Rulers to be just and ruling in fear of God 2 Sam 23.3 LORD sprang from JUDA Heb. 7.4 and Lion of JUDAH makes kings and priests Rev. 5.10

RABSHAKEH says LYING WORDS about PHARAOH 

Isa 36:6  Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust in him. 

Isa 36:7  But if thou say to me, We trust in the LORD our God: is it not he, whose high places and whose altars Hezekiah hath taken away, and said to Judah and to Jerusalem, Ye shall worship before this altar? 

Isa 36:8  Now therefore give pledges, I pray thee, to my master the king of Assyria, and I will give thee two thousand horses, if thou be able on thy part to set riders upon them. 

Isa 36:9  How then wilt thou turn away the face of one captain of the least of my master's servants, and put thy trust on Egypt for chariots and for horsemen? 

Rabshekah the LIAR says LORD said to DESTROY –

Isa 36:10  And am I now come up without the LORD against this land to destroy it? the LORD said unto me, Go up against this land, and destroy it. 

Isa 36:11  Then said Eliakim and Shebna and Joah unto Rabshakeh, Speak, I pray thee, unto thy servants in the Syrian language; for we understand it: and speak not to us in the Jews' language, in the ears of the people that are on the wall. 

·       GOD’S people speaks SYRIAN language, they DO NOT KNOW LANGUAGE OF JUDAH!

LORD shows as HISTORY REPEATING

HISTORY---2Ki_18:18  And when they had called to the king, there came out to them Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder.

2Ki_18:37  Then came Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah the son of Asaph the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

2Ki_19:2  And he sent Eliakim, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.

HISTORY REPEATING---Isa_36:3  Then came forth unto him Eliakim, Hilkiah's son, which was over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, Asaph's son, the recorder.

Isa_36:22  Then came Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, that was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh.

Isa_37:2  And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests covered with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz.

Continuing--

Isa 36:12  But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? hath he not sent me to the men that sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you? 

·       Who sits on the WALL?

·       Those who SEDUCE GOD’S PEOPLE--- Eze 13:10  Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter: ---Eze 13:11  Say unto them which daub it with untempered morter, that it shall fall: there shall be an overflowing shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a stormy wind shall rend it. 

IN JEWISH language HE SHOUTED PLAINLY the words of ASSYRIAN -----Isa 36:13  Then Rabshakeh stood, and cried with a loud voice in the Jews' language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria. 

·     Rabshakeh says ASSYRIAN of Isa. 14; 24-25, that HEZEKIAH’S words OF PEACE AND TRUTH would NOT COME TO PASS---Isa 36:14  Thus saith the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you: for he shall not be able to deliver you. 

Isa 36:18  Beware lest Hezekiah persuade you, saying, The LORD will deliver us. Hath any of the gods of the nations delivered his land out of the hand of the king of Assyria? 

·     THESE SCRIPTURES mean that PRESENT DAY people of GOD (PCG ) AS ASSYRIANS (having other god H. W. Armstrong) are NOT BELIEVING JESUS CHRIST as THE ALMIGHTY GOD, 1 Jn. 5;20—

1Jn 5:18  We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not. 

1Jn 5:19  And we know that we are of God, and the whole world lieth in wickedness. 

1Jn 5:20  And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in Him that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life. 

1Jn 5:21  Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen. 

Isa 36:19  Where are the gods of Hamath and Arphad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? and have they delivered Samaria out of my hand? 

·       Assyrian BOASTS

Isa 36:20  Who are they among all the gods of these lands, that have delivered their land out of my hand, that the LORD should deliver Jerusalem out of my hand? 

·       He exalts himself ABOVE GOD!---Gerald Flurry wrote In Royal Vision -PENTECOST 2007---Gerald Flurry wrote that he is  god with capital “G” --“My office---which is really God’s office”- (“That Prophet” page 70 p 1,2,3) –•   Royal Vision ---July/ Aug 2007 ---page 15  “ Will you unify around God’s leader today?”All of God’s ministers need to unify around headquarters.

Isa 36:21  But they held their peace, and answered him not a word: for the king's commandment was, saying, Answer him not. 

Isa 36:22  Then came Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah, that was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and Joah, the son of Asaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent, and told him the words of Rabshakeh. 

WORD and WORK OF ALMIGHTY in Isa. 14—

An Oracle Concerning Assyria

Isa 14:24  The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand: 

·     WHERE IS WRITTEN of WORD OF LORD’S THOUGHTS---THOSE THOUGHTS had been GIVEN to King HEZEKIAH

·     2Ki 20:19  Then said Hezekiah unto Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. And he said, Is it not good, if peace and truth be in “my days”? 

My days means—“PEACE and TRUTH through LORD’S SACRIFICE is in the time of a GENERATION of HEZEKIAH”

SO THE PROPHECY OF JESUS CHRIST BRINING

PEACE (REMOVING SINS of ALL) and TRUTH (by HIM CRUCIFIED, Gal 3;1)

AS HEZEKIAH said, 2 Kin 20;19

Would FULFILL WHEN LORD BREAKS ASSYRIAN in GOD’S LAND!

Isa 14:25  That I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains tread him under foot: then shall his yoke depart from off them, and his burden depart from off their shoulders. 

Isa 14:26  This is the purpose that is purposed upon the whole earth: and this is the hand that is stretched out upon all the nations. 

Isa 14:27  For the LORD of hosts hath purposed, and who shall disannul it? and his hand is stretched out, and who shall turn it back? 

Hezekiah Seeks Isaiah's Help

These words are easy to understand as PROPHECIES

Fulfilling

Isa 37:1  And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD. 

Isa 37:2  And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests covered with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz. 

Isa 37:3  And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth. 

·       PHILADELPHIA CHURCH OF GOD cannot make a SINLESS UNDEFILED people for ALMIGHTY GOD!!

·       LORD is PURER TO LOOK AT, Hab 1;13 (read in No.  1495, 1496)

·       LORD’S CHURCH should also be PURER TO LOOK AT!!

Isa 37:4  It may be the LORD thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to reproach the living God, and will reprove the words which the LORD thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up thy prayer for the remnant that is left. 

Isa 37:5  So the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah. 

Isa 37:6  And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus saith the LORD, Be not afraid of the words that thou hast heard, wherewith the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me. 

Isa 37:7  Behold, I will send a blast upon him, and he shall hear a rumour, and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land. 

Isa 37:8  So Rabshakeh returned, and found the king of Assyria warring against Libnah: for he had heard that he was departed from Lachish.

·     So king of Assyria warring but cannot win

Hezekiah's Prayer for Deliverance

Isa 37:14  And Hezekiah received the letter from the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the LORD, and spread it before the LORD. 

Isa 37:15  And Hezekiah prayed unto the LORD, saying, 

Isa 37:16  O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art the God, even thou alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth: thou hast made heaven and earth. 

Isa 37:17  Incline thine ear, O LORD, and hear; open thine eyes, O LORD, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which hath sent to reproach the living God. (2Ki_18:13  Now in the fourteenth year of king Hezekiah did Sennacherib king of Assyria come up against all the fenced cities of Judah, and took them. (so that was the HISTORY)

Isa 37:18  Of a truth, LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations, and their countries, 

Isa 37:19  And have cast their gods into the fire: for they were no gods, but the work of men's hands, wood and stone: therefore they have destroyed them. 

Isa 37:20  Now therefore, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that thou art the LORD, even thou only. 

Sennacherib's Fall as in present times in Isa. 14

(FALL OF KING OF Assyria, Isa. 14;24-26)

Isa 37:21  Then Isaiah the son of Amoz sent unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me against Sennacherib king of Assyria: 

Isa 37:22  This is the word which the LORD hath spoken concerning him; The virgin, the daughter of Zion, hath despised thee, and laughed thee to scorn; the daughter of Jerusalem hath shaken her head at thee. 

·      Daughter of JERUSALEM is in BABYLON  --SHE HAS TO BE REDEEMED, Mic 4;10--Mic 4:10  Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shalt thou go forth out of the city, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go even to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there the LORD shall redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies. 

Isa 37:23  Whom hast thou reproached and blasphemed? and against whom hast thou exalted thy voice, and lifted up thine eyes on high? even against the Holy One of Israel. 

Isa 37:24  By thy servants hast thou reproached the Lord, and hast said, By the multitude of my chariots am I come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down the tall cedars thereof, and the choice fir trees thereof: and I will enter into the height of his border, and the forest of his Carmel. 

Isa 37:25  I have digged, and drunk water; and with the sole of my feet have I dried up all the rivers of the besieged places. 

Isa 37:26  Hast thou not heard long ago, how I have done it; and of ancient times, that I have formed it? now have I brought it to pass, that thou shouldest be to lay waste defenced cities into ruinous heaps. 

Isa 37:27  Therefore their inhabitants were of small power, they were dismayed and confounded: they were as the grass of the field, and as the green herb, as the grass on the housetops, and as corn blasted before it be grown up. 

LORD knows of everyone--Isa 37:28  But I know thy abode, and thy going out, and thy coming in, and thy rage against me. 

Isa 37:29  Because thy rage against me, and thy tumult, is come up into mine ears, therefore will I put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle in thy lips, and I will turn thee back by the way by which thou camest. 

LORD is served BY A REMNANT

Escaped from PCG as JUDAH

To BEAR FRUIT UPWARD to ALMIGHTY GOD

Isa 37:30  And this shall be a sign unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such as groweth of itself; and the second year that which springeth of the same: and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat the fruit thereof. 

Isa 37:31  And the remnant that is escaped of the house of Judah shall again take root downward, and bear fruit upward: 

Isa 37:32  For out of Jerusalem shall go forth a remnant, and they that escape out of mount Zion: the zeal of the LORD of hosts shall do this. 

REMNANT, Rom. 9;27-29, Isa. 10;22, Eze. 14; 22,23 keeps SABBATHS and SERVICE of GOD AS DAVID kept—as in 1 Ch 23;29-31 –read in No.1401 in www.restoringcaptivity.com

KING OF Assyria CANNOT COME TO CITY

Of LORD

Isa 37:33  Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, nor shoot an arrow there, nor come before it with shields, nor cast a bank against it. 

Isa 37:34  By the way that he came, by the same shall he return, and shall not come into this city, saith the LORD. 

Isa 37:35  For I will defend this city to save it for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake. 

Isa 37:36  Then the angel of the LORD went forth, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred and fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. 

Isa 37:37  So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh. 

Isa 37:38  And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Armenia: and Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead. 

·     ASSYRIAN was SMITTEN by his sons, when worshipping the other god, We see A SON reigns in his place,

A NEW GOVERNOR comes

Hos 1:10  Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said unto them, Ye are not my people, there it shall be said unto them, Ye are the sons of the living God. 

Hos 1:11  Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel. 

Jer 30:21  And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith the LORD. 

Jer 30:17  For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds, saith the LORD; because they called thee an Outcast, saying, This is Zion, whom no man seeketh after. 

Jer 30:18  Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will bring again the captivity of Jacob's tents, and have mercy on his dwellingplaces; and the city shall be builded upon her own heap, and the palace shall remain after the manner thereof. 

Jer 30:19  And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small. 

Jer 30:20  Their children also shall be as aforetime, and their congregation shall be established before me, and I will punish all that oppress them. 

Jer 30:21  And their nobles shall be of themselves, and their governor shall proceed from the midst of them; and I will cause him to draw near, and he shall approach unto me: for who is this that engaged his heart to approach unto me? saith the LORD. 

Jer 30:22  And ye shall be my people, and I will be your God. 

Jer 30:23  Behold, the whirlwind of the LORD goeth forth with fury, a continuing whirlwind: it shall fall with pain upon the head of the wicked. 

SUN DIAL of AHAZ and HEZEKIAH’S ILLNESS

Hezekiah's Illness and Recovery

2Ki 20:1  In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live. 

2Ki 20:2  Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying, 

2Ki 20:3  I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. 

2Ki 20:4  And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the LORD came to him, saying, 

2Ki 20:5  Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the LORD. 

2Ki 20:6  And I will add unto thy days fifteen years; and I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria; and I will defend this city for mine own sake, and for my servant David's sake. 

2Ki 20:7  And Isaiah said, Take a lump of figs. And they took and laid it on the boil, and he recovered. 

2Ki 20:8  And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What shall be the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day? 

2Ki 20:9  And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees? 

2Ki 20:10  And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees. 

2Ki 20:11  And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz. 

HEZEKIAH’S SICKNESS, SUN DIAL OF AHAZ are ALL mentioned in Isa. 38; 1-22

Hezekiah's Sickness and Recovery

Isa 38:1  In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order: for thou shalt die, and not live. 

Isa 38:2  Then Hezekiah turned his face toward the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, 

Isa 38:3  And said, Remember now, O LORD, I beseech thee, how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. 

Isa 38:4  Then came the word of the LORD to Isaiah, saying, 

Isa 38:5  Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the LORD, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years. 

Isa 38:6  And I will deliver thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will defend this city. 

Isa 38:7  And this shall be a sign unto thee from the LORD, that the LORD will do this thing that he hath spoken; 

Isa 38:8  Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down. 

WORDS WRITTEN BY HEZEKIAH

Isa 38:9  The writing of Hezekiah king of Judah, when he had been sick, and was recovered of his sickness: 

Isa 38:10  I said in the cutting off of my days, I shall go to the gates of the grave: I am deprived of the residue of my years. 

Isa 38:11  I said, I shall not see the LORD, even the LORD, in the land of the living: I shall behold man no more with the inhabitants of the world. 

·      If you do not have ETERNAL LIFE –you cannot see the LORD IN LAND OF LIVING (without sin)

Isa 38:12  Mine age is departed, and is removed from me as a shepherd's tent: I have cut off like a weaver my life: he will cut me off with pining sickness: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me. 

Isa 38:13  I reckoned till morning, that, as a lion, so will he break all my bones: from day even to night wilt thou make an end of me. 

Isa 38:14  Like a crane or a swallow, so did I chatter: I did mourn as a dove: mine eyes fail with looking upward: O LORD, I am oppressed; undertake for me. 

Isa 38:15  What shall I say? he hath both spoken unto me, and himself hath done it: I shall go softly all my years in the bitterness of my soul. 

Isa 38:16  O Lord, by these things men live, and in all these things is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou recover me, and make me to live. 

·      LORD makes us SPIRITUAL, 1 Co 15: 44 by giving HIS SPIRIT, Ac 2;38,39

·      1Co 15:44  It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body

Isa 38:17  Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back. 

·     NO PEACE when in SIN!!

·     Therefore LORD removes SIN, Rom.  6 from HIS TRUTH, of His sacrifice, Gal 3;1

Rom 6:6  Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. 

Rom 6:7  For he that is dead is freed from sin. 

Rom 6:8  Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: 

Gal 3:1  O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you? 

Gal 3:2  This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? 

Gal 3:3  Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? 

Gal 3:4  Have ye suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain. 

H. W. Armstrong cannot save

Isa 38:18  For the grave cannot praise thee, death can not celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth. 

Isa 38:19  The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth. 

·      Hezekiah wrote, Isa. 38;1—he MAKES KNOWN the TRUTH as a father to his generations

Isa 38:20  The LORD was ready to save me: therefore we will sing my songs to the stringed instruments all the days of our life in the house of the LORD. 

Isa 38:21  For Isaiah had said, Let them take a lump of figs, and lay it for a plaister upon the boil, and he shall recover. 

Isa 38:22  Hezekiah also had said, What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of the LORD? 

2Ki 20:9  And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees? 

2Ki 20:10  And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees. 

2Ki 20:11  And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz. 

PRESENT DAY SONS of HEZEKIAH

Are in BABYLON 

Envoys from Babylon

Isa 39:7  And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.

·       EUNUCHS serve their masters very faithfully—

·       SUCH are DAUGHTERS OF ZION  in BABYLON, Mic 4;10

Isa 39:1  At that time Merodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present to Hezekiah: for he had heard that he had been sick, and was recovered. 

Isa 39:2  And Hezekiah was glad of them, and shewed them the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not. 

Isa 39:3  Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country unto me, even from Babylon. 

Isa 39:4  Then said he, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All that is in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them. 

Isa 39:5  Then said Isaiah to Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD of hosts: 

Isa 39:6  Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store until this day, shall be carried to Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD. 

Isa 39:7  And of thy sons that shall issue from thee, which thou shalt beget, shall they take away; and they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon. 

Isa 39:8  Then said Hezekiah to Isaiah, Good is the word of the LORD which thou hast spoken. He said moreover, For there shall be peace and truth in my days. 

Comfort for God's People

Isa 40:1  Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. 

Isa 40:2  Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD'S hand double for all her sins. 

Isa 40:3  The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. 

Isa 40:4  Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain: 

Isa 40:5  And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. 

The Word of God Stands Forever

Isa 40:6  The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field: 

Isa 40:7  The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass. 

Isa 40:8  The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. 

The Greatness of God

Isa 40:9  O Zion, that bringest good tidings, get thee up into the high mountain; O Jerusalem, that bringest good tidings, lift up thy voice with strength; lift it up, be not afraid; say unto the cities of Judah, Behold your God! 

Isa 40:10  Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him. 

Isa 40:11  He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young. 

Isa 40:12  Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? 

Isa 40:13  Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being his counsellor hath taught him? 

Isa 40:14  With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding? 

Isa 40:15  Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing. 

Isa 40:16  And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn, nor the beasts thereof sufficient for a burnt offering. 

Isa 40:17  All nations before him are as nothing; and they are counted to him less than nothing, and vanity. 

Isa 40:18  To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him? 

Isa 40:19  The workman melteth a graven image, and the goldsmith spreadeth it over with gold, and casteth silver chains. 

·       COULD WE COMPARE A mortal man TO BE EQUAL to CREATOR GOD JESUS CHRIST?

Isa 40:20  He that is so impoverished that he hath no oblation chooseth a tree that will not rot; he seeketh unto him a cunning workman to prepare a graven image, that shall not be moved. 

Isa 40:21  Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth? 

Isa 40:22  It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: 

Isa 40:23  That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity. 

Isa 40:24  Yea, they shall not be planted; yea, they shall not be sown: yea, their stock shall not take root in the earth: and he shall also blow upon them, and they shall wither, and the whirlwind shall take them away as stubble. 

Isa 40:25  To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One. 

Isa 40:26  Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth. 

Isa 40:27  Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel, My way is hid from the LORD, and my judgment is passed over from my God? 

Isa 40:28  Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. 

Isa 40:29  He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. 

Isa 40:30  Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 

Isa 40:31  But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. 

Fear Not, for I Am with You

Isa 41:1  Keep silence before me, O islands; and let the people renew their strength: let them come near; then let them speak: let us come near together to judgment. 

Isa 41:2  Who raised up the righteous man from the east, called him to his foot, gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings? he gave them as the dust to his sword, and as driven stubble to his bow. 

Isa 41:3  He pursued them, and passed safely; even by the way that he had not gone with his feet. 

Isa 41:4  Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he. 

Isa 41:5  The isles saw it, and feared; the ends of the earth were afraid, drew near, and came. 

Isa 41:6  They helped every one his neighbour; and every one said to his brother, Be of good courage. 

Isa 41:7  So the carpenter encouraged the goldsmith, and he that smootheth with the hammer him that smote the anvil, saying, It is ready for the sodering: and he fastened it with nails, that it should not be moved. 

Isa 41:8  But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend. 

Isa 41:9  Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called thee from the chief men thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away. 

Isa 41:10  Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. 

Isa 41:11  Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish. 

Isa 41:12  Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them, even them that contended with thee: they that war against thee shall be as nothing, and as a thing of nought. 

Isa 41:13  For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee. 

Isa 41:14  Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith the LORD, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. 

Isa 41:15  Behold, I will make thee a new sharp threshing instrument having teeth: thou shalt thresh the mountains, and beat them small, and shalt make the hills as chaff. 

·      The POTTER OF ISRAEL is AT GREAT WORKS to SAVE THEM GIVING KNOWLEDGE OF GOD ALMIGHTY –

·      The GOD WHO IS PURER TO LOOK AT, Hab 1;13

·       Isa 41:16  Thou shalt fan them, and the wind shall carry them away, and the whirlwind shall scatter them: and thou shalt rejoice in the LORD, and shalt glory in the Holy One of Israel.

Isa 41:17  When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue faileth for thirst, I the LORD will hear them, I the God of Israel will not forsake them. 

Isa 41:18  I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. 

READ IN No.1448 WATER FROM SANCTUARY CAME AS A RIVER FROM GOD EZE. 47 AND HE HAD ADDED SALT TO SAVE PCG FROM BARRANNESS SO THAT PCG BECOMES POSTERITY AS EPHRAIM  

Isa 41:19  I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the shittah tree, and the myrtle, and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the fir tree, and the pine, and the box tree together: 

Isa 41:20  That they may see, and know, and consider, and understand together, that the hand of the LORD hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. 

The Futility of Idols

Isa 41:21  Produce your cause, saith the LORD; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob. 

Isa 41:22  Let them bring them forth, and shew us what shall happen: let them shew the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. 

Isa 41:23  Shew the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods: yea, do good, or do evil, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. 

Isa 41:24  Behold, ye are of nothing, and your work of nought: an abomination is he that chooseth you. 

·      SINNING LEADERS are ABOMINATIONS

Isa 41:25  I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come: from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name: and he shall come upon princes as upon morter, and as the potter treadeth clay. 

·     Therefore Ships of Tarshish learns their calendar through EQUINOX OF SUN.

Isa 41:26  Who hath declared from the beginning, that we may know? and beforetime, that we may say, He is righteous? yea, there is none that sheweth, yea, there is none that declareth, yea, there is none that heareth your words. 

Isa 41:27  The first shall say to Zion, Behold, behold them: and I will give to Jerusalem one that bringeth good tidings. 

Isa 41:28  For I beheld, and there was no man; even among them, and there was no counsellor, that, when I asked of them, could answer a word. 

Isa 41:29  Behold, they are all vanity; their works are nothing: their molten images are wind and confusion. 

The Lord's Chosen Servant

Is JESUS CHRIST

Isa 42:1  Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. 

Isa 42:2  He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street. 

Isa 42:3  A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. 

Isa 42:4  He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law. 

Isa 42:5  Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein: 

Isa 42:6  I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles; 

Isa 42:7  To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house. 

Isa 42:8  I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. 

Isa 42:9  Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them. 

Sing to the Lord a New Song

Isa 42:10  Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise from the end of the earth, ye that go down to the sea, and all that is therein; the isles, and the inhabitants thereof. 

Isa 42:11  Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rock sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. 

·       LET KEDAR LIFT UP THEIR VOICES.

Isa 42:12  Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands. 

Isa 42:13  The LORD shall go forth as a mighty man, he shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: he shall cry, yea, roar; he shall prevail against his enemies. 

Isa 42:14  I have long time holden my peace; I have been still, and refrained myself: now will I cry like a travailing woman; I will destroy and devour at once. 

Isa 42:15  I will make waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.

Isa 42:17  They shall be turned back, they shall be greatly ashamed, that trust in graven images, that say to the molten images, Ye are our gods.

Israel's Failure to Hear and See

Isa 42:18  Hear, ye deaf; and look, ye blind, that ye may see. 

Isa 42:19  Who is blind, but my servant? or deaf, as my messenger that I sent? who is blind as he that is perfect, and blind as the LORD'S servant? 

Isa 42:20  Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not. 

Isa 42:21  The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law, and make it honourable. 

Isa 42:22  But this is a people robbed and spoiled; they are all of them snared in holes, and they are hid in prison houses: they are for a prey, and none delivereth; for a spoil, and none saith, Restore. 

Isa 42:23  Who among you will give ear to this? who will hearken and hear for the time to come? 

Isa 42:24  Who gave Jacob for a spoil, and Israel to the robbers? did not the LORD, he against whom we have sinned? for they would not walk in his ways, neither were they obedient unto his law. 

Isa 42:25  Therefore he hath poured upon him the fury of his anger, and the strength of battle: and it hath set him on fire round about, yet he knew not; and it burned him, yet he laid it not to heart. 

Israel's Only Savior

Made TWO WITNESSES who HAS known ONE GOD

Isa 43:1  But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. 

Isa 43:2  When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 

Isa 43:3  For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 

Isa 43:4  Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life. 

Isa 43:5  Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west; 

Isa 43:6  I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth; 

Isa 43:7  Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him. 

Isa 43:8  Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears. 

Isa 43:9  Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and shew us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth. 

Gentile Witnesses TEACH PCG  that there is ONE GOD--

Isa 43:10  Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me. 

Isa 43:11  I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour. 

Isa 43:12  I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God. 

Isa 43:13  Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it? 

Isa 43:14  Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships. 

Isa 43:15  I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King. 

Isa 43:16  Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters; 

Isa 43:17  Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow. 

Isa 43:18  Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. 

Isa 43:19  Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert. 

Isa 43:20  The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen. 

Isa 43:21  This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise. 

Isa 43:22  But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel. 

Isa 43:23  Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense. 

Isa 43:24  Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities. 

Isa 43:25  I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. 

Isa 43:26  Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified. 

·     DEPEND ON JESUS CHRIST to be PARDONED of SINS

·     HE forgives Even WRETCHED SINS, Rom.  7; 24,25

Rom 7:24  O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 

Rom 7:25  I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. 

Isa 43:27  Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me. 

Isa 43:28  Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches. 

SO PCG  as ISRAEL who has COVENANT AND SERVICE, Rom.  9; 4-7 are TO REPENT AND BE BAPTISED to DEATH of JESUS CHRIST, Rom.  6.  

·       2Co_5:16 - henceforth know we no man after flesh: yea, though we known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. ---NOW we know Him as SPIRIT, 2 Co 3;17--2Co 3:17  Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. (Ezekiel  18; 21-23)

·      1Pe_4:2 no longer live the rest of time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.

Eze 18:21  But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. 

Eze 18:22  All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live. 

All praise and thanksgiving be to the Saviour and Redeemer of ISRAEL AND ALL FLESH, To THE HUSBAND AND REDEEMER OF ISRAEL, Isa 54: 5, TO THE ONE TRUE ALMIGHTY AND LAMB MESSIAH, Rev. 21: 22, 1 Jn. 5: 20, Amen and Amen.
