Transcript
- 0:03We are going to deal with the story about Jericho, about Gilgo, about Bethel, about two men, Elijah and Elijah, how these two prophets come together when Elijah is about to be taken a up into the whirlwind.
- 0:24Now, what significance about this story is.
- 0:31Second King, chapter two, verse one through 18.
- 0:34Elijah is hearing from God.
- 0:39Elijah, realize that today my master is gonna be taken up.
- 0:48Lemme just go ahead and give you the scripture so we can just grab a little bit of a foundation to the story.
- 0:55And it came to pass when the Lord would take up Elijah into heaven by a whirlwind that Elijah went with Elijah from Gilgo.
- 1:07Now, as we dissect this story, they're gonna go to different places.
- 1:14You are gonna get the secret message that's hidden.
- 1:19Oh, let me tell you again now, the secret message that.
- 1:24Hi, that is hidden.
- 1:26Now, why is this a big deal?
- 1:28Well, God don't just do things.
- 1:33It's always done round.
- 1:35One of his timelines, his FETs, his festivals.
- 1:41Most people don't know that'cause they don't even know his festivals, his feast.
- 1:47But we're gonna deal with this one here today.
- 1:49I'm not gonna do a lot of reading.
- 1:51I'm gonna tell your story.
- 1:52I'm gonna point things out in the story.
- 1:56Well, first they leave Gilgo.
- 2:00What is significant about Gilgo?
- 2:04Well, we understand the children of Israel.
- 2:08That's where they, it can't for Passover, that's where they were circumcised.
- 2:16That's where they took the 12 stones from the Jordan River, that they stopped up, that the Lord stopped up and they walk on dry ground the same way the children Israel did in the Red Sea.
- 2:30Are we talking about the secret message that was hidden now Gilgo that we understand.
- 2:40It means 12 stones.
- 2:43It means circumcision, which is blood.
- 2:46It means covenant, it means Passover, and it means that 12 stone that was taken from the joint river, but the main concept is separation.
- 2:59I said, whoa.
- 3:00I said, okay, Lord, you got a message when the Lord showed me this in a, in a dream, he says, I want you to understand whenever you come to me.
- 3:10They gonna have to be separation.
- 3:12The world, as you know, it is no longer gonna be your friend.
- 3:17There are people that you have associated with you will no longer need to associate with.
- 3:23What is the separation significance?
- 3:26Well, when the children of Israel left bondage, they had to understand that the all you, the old way of thinking, gotta be cut off.
- 3:40Because I'm about to check you into the Promised Land yo leg.
- 3:44Oh, lemme tell you something.
- 3:45Now we talk about secret message that was hidden, but why was it hidden?
- 3:52That's the God we serve.
- 3:53He said, I'm not gonna make it plain.
- 3:55I'm gonna make it plain to my believers with my spirit.
- 4:00So they go from gilgo.
- 4:03Be Now, I'm gonna help y'all out a little bit and, and when I saw this, it blew me away.
- 4:10Well, Gilgo is right next to the Jordan River, so don't miss that.
- 4:16Now that makes sense.
- 4:18They brought the stones up into Gilgo to set up a, a ma, a memorial for when the children Israel came there.
- 4:26Now, why is this significant?
- 4:29Because unlike the average person.
- 4:33They don't really pay attention to locations like this.
- 4:38Me, oh, I pay attention.
- 4:40So to go from Gilgo to Bethel, it's like having a car and driving 50 miles an hour for for many hours.
- 4:55But if you look at it in the biblical sense, if all of this is happening in one day and it is.
- 5:02But what most people don't realize is they're being transported from one place to the other.
- 5:12They're moving in the spirit.
- 5:14So they're in Gilgo now and maybe 10 minutes or two minutes later, they're in bet.
- 5:23It's impossible to get there in a day's time walking.
- 5:28It's impossible to get there in a day's time on a mule or a horse.
- 5:34Now let me, y'all ain't listen to me.
- 5:36I'm gonna go ahead and keep going.
- 5:37I'm gonna go ahead and keep going because when you start understanding that you understand the significance of it, but no matter what, you cannot do it on foot in that short period of time.
- 5:51Not in a day, not on the whole trip that they're showing now.
- 5:57The second place we are gonna deal with is Bethel.
- 6:01What the name Bethel mean is House of God?
- 6:05No, I didn't name it.
- 6:08I didn't name it Jacob.
- 6:12Name it.
- 6:14Why did he call it the House of God?
- 6:17Because he realized.
- 6:20When he was going to sit going to Syria, he stopped there and he had to sleep because it was night.
- 6:30And when he put the stone, get the stone under his head, he dreamed he saw a spiritual dream.
- 6:41He saw the angel of the Lord ascending and defending from heaven to earth.
- 6:48From heaven to earth.
- 6:50What was significant about that?
- 6:52He said, it has to be the house of God.
- 6:57Now, the fact that he saw the angel of the Lord going back and forth, he was seeing Jesus just like Abraham saw Jesus, just like Isaac saw Jesus, but they saw him as the angel of the Lord, but they knew he was the Lord because they all give reverence.
- 7:17Now I, I, hold on now.
- 7:19We ain't finished with that.
- 7:19Now I want you to hear this now, which is the house of Eli, which is also the stairway to heaven.
- 7:28That's why I have no doubt in my mind, heaven is right above Bethel.
- 7:35Who, that's why I said best.
- 7:38It says Heaven gonna come down to Earth is coming down into a place.
- 7:44I don't think heaven got an engine and it is flying all around.
- 7:48It's a place, that's why I call it the third heaven, Bethel house of God.
- 7:56So he goes from separation.
- 8:00Now what is he teach us in this word?
- 8:03How people come to God and then they come to the presence of God.
- 8:09That's why I'm always trying to stay in the presence of God.
- 8:13Why?
- 8:15Because it's a beautiful place to be.
- 8:20Now I know you're saying to yourself, go ahead, Jim.
- 8:23What this thing?
- 8:25All right, hold on.
- 8:26Then we talking about the secret messes that was hidden.
- 8:31Then they go to Jericho.
- 8:34Now when they go to Bethel, there are 50 prophets there.
- 8:38Now, I don't miss that.
- 8:39Now there are 50 prophets there.
- 8:41You talking about the secret message that's hidden Now?
- 8:44Why is it 50 prophets?
- 8:46Because 50 is Pentecost.
- 8:49I don't miss that.
- 8:50Now 50 is Pentecost.
- 8:53Then they go to Jericho.
- 8:55Guess what's there?
- 8:5650 profits.
- 8:59When they were leaving Gilgo guess was there 50 prophets?
- 9:03And now I know you're saying to yourself, man, I ain't never heard this before.
- 9:06Don't worry about it.
- 9:07It was secret, secret message that was hidden.
- 9:10So then they get the Jericho and Jericho mean Moon or City of Palm.
- 9:16But why is that important?
- 9:18Because the children of Israel have to learn to walk in faith when the children of Israel, after circumcision, Passover.
- 9:28They marched around Jericho, which is on a hill, and the Lord told'em March around once a day.
- 9:36They march around, they went back and rest in camp, is what they call it.
- 9:41They don't say a word, not one word.
- 9:44They do that.
- 9:44The next day they go back and rest.
- 9:47They do it again.
- 9:48They go back and rest.
- 9:49Now the people are wondering, are they coming to fight or they just come into play?
- 9:55After the sixth time of them doing that, they go back and rest.
- 9:59Now, I know you're saying yourself and pastor, this stuff here is some good, but why was they just marching around it one day?
- 10:07Because the Lord said so.
- 10:09I don't know.
- 10:10I'm just telling you the story, but now guess what he said on the seventh day though, it said March around it.
- 10:20How many times we coming around six times.
- 10:24But when you hit that seventh time, it says scream.
- 10:30When you hear what the trumpet.
- 10:33Why is that a big deal?
- 10:35Because the Lord coming back on the seventh trumpet.
- 10:40Uh, come on.
- 10:41We know that September.
- 10:42We understand that that's the word, but now why is this a big deal?
- 10:49Because the children, I Israel have to learn to walk by faith.
- 10:52But whenever you following God, you gotta learn to walk by faith.
- 10:56So all these three sets of prophets was constantly telling Elijah, you know, the Lord's gonna take Elijah today.
- 11:04Yeah, I know.
- 11:06But hold your peace.
- 11:08You know the taking your, your, your mask They Elijah today?
- 11:11Yes.
- 11:13But keep you peace.
- 11:15You know, the law protect your prophet.
- 11:16Remember, they're prophets also, you know the law protecting Elijah, your master today.
- 11:22Yes.
- 11:23Keep your peace.
- 11:25Why?
- 11:25Because he had made an agreement.
- 11:27Nothing is going to separate us.
- 11:30Now you're getting to the, to, to the understanding of the message.
- 11:35So when now they leave Jericho, they go to the Jordan River.
- 11:43Elijah the strike the water what it is, man, to now here's the beautiful pot.
- 11:53The water potted, thi and feather.
- 11:56It separates.
- 11:58It is not going nowhere though it is hovering.
- 12:01Now I know you're saying to yourself, the water just hovering as a wall on both sides of them.
- 12:08They're walking between the water.
- 12:11What is happening?
- 12:12We are talking resurrection, the death and the resurrection of Christ, and he's showing us because they're walking between the water.
- 12:25I know you're saying yourself, man.
- 12:27This is good.
- 12:28Well, the children, Israel did the exact same thing when they went through the Red Sea.
- 12:33They was getting baptized into the death and the resurrection of Christ.
- 12:38Now I know you're saying to yourself, man, this is some good stuff.
- 12:44Oh, hold on.
- 12:45We are going somewhere.
- 12:46Now we talking about the secret message that was in you.
- 12:50I said, Lord, why are you showing me?
- 12:54He said, because I called you and I'm gonna show you things other people can't see.
- 13:00So as the, as Elijah and Elijah, their name is exactly the same letters except for Elijah has a j.
- 13:13And Elijah, I want you to get this now, have a.
- 13:17It is E-L-I-J-A-H and E-L-I-F-H-A.
- 13:24It just flipped the A and the H on the, on the name.
- 13:28Now I know you said yourself Y, but it is only six letters, a piece, and usually it's never six letters.
- 13:35It's usually five.
- 13:37Jesus, five Moses, five, and, and, and so I'm, I'm wondering, and I say, I say, okay, Lord, why see?
- 13:45He said because six and six is 12.
- 13:4712.
- 13:48Represent the 12 tribe of Israel.
- 13:5012.
- 13:50Represent the 12 disciples.
- 13:5212.
- 13:52Represent the women with the issue of blood for 12 years.
- 13:5512.
- 13:55Represent Jairus's daughter for 12 years.
- 13:5712 represent Jesus when he gets now His by Mr.
- 14:02When he's now acknowledging his knowledge with the doctors, these theologians, so they're crossing the Jordan River.
- 14:13They're going through resurrect, uh, death and resurrection of Christ.
- 14:17The water stopped flowing down because that's what Jordan mean, the flowing down of water.
- 14:23But now watch the word.
- 14:26So now watch this.
- 14:28'cause this is where it's powerful at.
- 14:32Elijah is getting ready to be taken up, but he says something.
- 14:39He says something that most people never really pay attention to what's happening.
- 14:44He says, what do you want?
- 14:49Whoa.
- 14:50He wasn't asking for anything.
- 14:52He, he, he is acknowledging all of these years you've been my servant.
- 14:59I'm about to go now, what do you want?
- 15:05And.
- 15:06You.
- 15:07You know, I don't know about you, but I would have to think about that for a while, but Elijah doesn't even hesitate.
- 15:14He said, I want a double portion of your spirit.
- 15:18What?
- 15:19How do you get a double Porsche?
- 15:21You know who Elijah was?
- 15:23Elijah was the one on Mount Caramel who called down fire from heaven.
- 15:29Elijah was the one who was on mount car who called down Rain.
- 15:35Come on man.
- 15:36This, this man is heavy.
- 15:38You want a double portion of his spirit?
- 15:43Yes.
- 15:44The secret message that's hitting you.
- 15:48What was he saying?
- 15:51He was saying, I seen what you can do, but I won't do twice as much as you do.
- 16:03Well, that's heavy now.
- 16:06He says, okay, now watch what he said.
- 16:09Okay.
- 16:11If you could see me.
- 16:16Go to heaven now.
- 16:18Watch this now.
- 16:19Because see, most people miss that.
- 16:21I've never heard nobody to teach on it.
- 16:23He didn't just say, if you can see me leave, he said, if you can see me go up to heaven.
- 16:33Now what he's saying is, yes, it's gonna be a thrash in a moment where I'm going to be going in the whirlwind, but you gotta watch.
- 16:43You have to have a spiritual eyes, so the Lord has to give this to you that you can see me going through the whirlwind to heaven.
- 16:52Whoa.
- 16:53Okay.
- 16:53Think.
- 16:53Think about.
- 17:36Don't miss that now.
- 17:37He had to see his spiritual eyes and see him all the way to heaven.
- 17:42Why is that a big deal?
- 17:46For one, you can't do it in the natural two, the Lord has to intervene to show him what's what's happening.
- 17:55So once the separation happens, the firing chariots and the horsemen, which is really the Chas, once they separate them two, now he has to watch with all this commotion going on, he cannot focus on the charity of Israel.
- 18:14He must focus on Elijah being taken up.
- 18:17Now, I don't know if I, I don't know if I could do that, ma'am.
- 18:20I'm seeing this magnificent by Chariot with these horsemen, and I gotta look in the whirlwind.
- 18:26Oh, that's powerful.
- 18:28But he had to do that.
- 18:30Now we talking about secret myth that's hidden.
- 18:33Now my question was, is it the Passover?
- 18:40This had to happen a Pacific time or was it Pentecost?
- 18:45Now I know you're saying to yourself, well, well Pastor, why are you looking at those two?
- 18:49He said, the spirit reveals things of God.
- 18:52Well, I know it.
- 18:53It wasn't trumpets because that didn't make sense.
- 18:58I know it wasn't Boost.
- 18:59I know it wasn't Tabernacle.
- 19:01I know it wasn't unleavened bread.
- 19:03I, I know it wasn't First Fruit.
- 19:06The only two it could be is Passover and Pentecost.
- 19:09And the reason it took me from Passover to Pentecost is because of Spirit.
- 19:15This is a spiritual move.
- 19:17This is a spiritual connection.
- 19:1950 prophets, 50 is Pentecost.
- 19:2250 days after Resurrection was Pentecost and it showed us 53 times.
- 19:28That's why I think this had to happen on pent.
- 19:33But why is that a big deal?
- 19:37Because I understand the Lord doesn't do anything on just an ordinary day.
- 19:44He didn't translate Elijah and Elijah from place to place just so he can pick a day that that's just not God.
- 19:55I understand most people ain't gonna know that, but I do.
- 19:59The secret message that's hidden.
- 20:01So I'm going through and I'm watching all of these things and I said, okay, Lord, your messages, when I grab a hold of you, there's gonna be a separation.
- 20:11I got it.
- 20:12The old me changed.
- 20:14There's gonna be a change.
- 20:15I got it.
- 20:15That's why it was circumcision, because you going to have to make a covenant.
- 20:20I got that.
- 20:22Bes the house of God because you want to get in his presence.
- 20:25I got that.
- 20:26That, that's great stuff.
- 20:28I gotta, I gotta walk by faith.
- 20:30I gotta do things that the average person ain't gonna do because I know I'm hearing from you, I know you are taking me in a different direction.
- 20:36I got that also.
- 20:38But I got that last part where I said, okay, I gotta trust you to move when you're telling me to move.
- 20:48Elijah and Elijah had to move from place to place, not according to their will, according to God's purpose.
- 20:58Ooh, that's heavy.
- 21:03That's heavy.
- 21:05And when you start understanding that, you said to yourself, okay, Lord, I I, I'm walking your face now.
- 21:14Okay, Lord, I'm I'm, I've had the separation from the friends I used to have.
- 21:20Okay, Lord, I want to be in your presence constantly.
- 21:23Okay, Lord, I know I have to walk by faith, but I'm also expecting a chariot move.
- 21:32I'm also expecting a whirlwind.
- 21:35I'm expecting you to move because you have to.
- 21:40You have 10 your words telling me.
- 21:43Okay.
- 21:43Now, when you start operating at this level, uh, expect me to move, expect me to start changing some things.
- 21:50Expect me to turn some things upside down because the world, when everything is all over the place, but guess what?
- 21:57It's still calm in the middle.
- 21:59Whoa.
- 22:00It's, and, and sometime around you, everything is all outta whack.
- 22:04But guess what it is calm in the middle.
- 22:09Just like a hurricane.
- 22:11All a hurricane is is a big whirlwind.
- 22:15The winds are twist, spinning, and tear, and that's why a tornado is a bigger whirlwind, but not a hurricane.
- 22:22My goodness in the middle, middle is always calm.
- 22:29Isn't that God?
- 22:32Isn't that his understanding?
- 22:34He said, yes.
- 22:35Things all around you can be going crazy, but come to me.
- 22:39This is where calmness is.
- 22:42So when I was, when he was showing me in the dream, I was like, I didn't never know it was this much to this story.
- 22:50He said, yes it is, but I've given it to you for your understanding.
- 22:57This happened on Pentecost, a spiritual day.
- 23:04Spiritual movement for spiritual understanding.
- 23:08I hope you enjoy hearing the word of God.
- 23:11We are talking about secret message that was hidden.
