   Open with hymn and prayer firstly by seeing the words of hymn #372. The. The. The. The. The. The. Great eternal, wise God, Creator and Sustainer of all life, the mighty Ale, our Heavenly Father. And we come unto you at this time, dear one, to praise your most holy name for the truly awesome things that you have done for us not only today, but our entire lives.

2. 3:53

   We thank you, dear God, for the calling that you’ve caught us with. We thank you for the provision, the means of reconciliation that you provided by the means of your Son. And we thank your Son that he gave his life for us. Now, dear God, we come before thee to ask a blessing upon our meeting this night.

3. 4:16

   A blessing, dear God, of wisdom and understanding. Understanding that we may listen intently to the words that are spoken, your words, thy word, and how it may affect us. And then the wisdom to be able to put the things that we learn into practice, that we may do your will and you may be praised. Yet, dear God, for all that you give. US.

4. 4:45

   Everything that we have, we still sin and we still fail you. And for this we are truly sorry, and we do seek your merciful kindness, your forgiveness, that the things that we have done may be blotted out and be remembered no more. For you truly are a God of mercy. So Heavenly Father, we ask a blessing upon those who are unable to be with us this night, that will not be sickness or frailty of the flesh, that if it is your will, you will restore them to full health mentally and spiritually.

5. 5:21

   But as in all things, be God, not our will, but Your will be done. And so we place our lives in your care. Please now accept our praises and our thanksgivings as we come before you through your Son, our Saviour, the Lord Jesus the Christ. Amen. Now before our brother Sam gets up to speak to us tonight on this, on the theme of Caesar’s Mother, the prophecy, we’re going to take a reading from Judges chapter 5. And before I call brother Tim up to read that, I’m going to make sure everyone has their Bible open and ready because he’s only reading 3 verses.

6. 6:11

   So we don’t want you to miss it and turn up as he’s starting to read because then we won’t get the gist of what our brother Sam’s background is. So, Brother Tim.

7. 6:37

   Judges chapter 5, starting from verse 28. Reading with you, brothers and sisters, young people and friends. The mother of Sisera looked out out a window and cried through the lattice. Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why tarry the wheels of his Chariots? Her wise ladies answered her. Yeah, she returned answer to herself. Have they not speed?

8. 7:05

   Have they not divided? The prey to every man, a damsel or two, to Sisera, a prey of diverse colours, a prey of diverse colours of needlework, or diverse colours of needlework on both sides. Meet for the next of them that take the spoil. So let all thine enemies perish, O Yahweh, but let them that love Him be as the Son, where he goeth forth in his might, and the land had rest 40 years.

9. 7:49

   Well good evening brothers and sisters and Lord Jesus Christ and young people. It’s been a a marvellous couple of days. I think we’ve put on a couple of pounds as we’ve enjoyed the fellowship amongst a number of brothers and sisters and not enough exercise. So, but it’s been modest to be able to see the wonderful things of the truth that we have in common and the fellowship that we have around the hope of Israel.

10. 8:10

    So thank you so much for making us feel so, so welcome. So in our studies, we’ve been considering obviously the story of, or the remarkable story really, of Deborah and Bayrack and the story that outlines what happens when faithful leadership is brought amongst us in terms of its ability to inspire change. In the time of Deborah and Baverick was a time we find the nation had totally lost sight of God. They turned to idols and as a result of that they failed to take their inheritance and God then wipes them out and puts them under oppression.

11. 8:47

    And as a result of that faithless leadership, the transferring of the truth from generation to generation, they fell into the the trap of serving idols and God sold them into the hands of a traitor Jabin, king of Canaan, and were crushed by Sisera under his iron fisted grip and under complete impression. We saw the nation turn on their knees to God for help, and yet their leader, whom God had requested to lead, wasn’t there. He was failing to stand up for his responsibilities. And the story, as we’ve seen in Judges Four and five, is the story of how one remarkable woman steps up to the plate and swings and hits a home run as she coaches Bayrack to uncover his potential and to take on his responsibilities and to lead in the way that God had asked him.

12. 9:38

    And it was through her inspirational leadership, you remember, and the support that she gave Bayrek very simply by just going with him because she understood the need, was able to inspire change amongst him, who then inspired the nation to stand up, who then inspired the tribes to come. And all of a sudden, God’s purpose begins to outwork amongst the nation as they spark a military revolution that takes back all of the territory that Jaben, King of Kaelin, had stolen from amongst them. And the people united together once more, begin to worship Yahweh, their father.

13. 10:16

    And we’ve explored the remarkable lessons, haven’t we, that come from the concepts of leadership that’s seen in Deborah and in Bairak and by jail to show that God’s purpose demands us all as individuals to stand up and to contribute in our ecclesias. Now, I think that one of the most remarkable things about the stories is that it doesn’t, it doesn’t always have to be a Bay rat, does it?

14. 10:40

    Not everyone can be a Bay rat, but everyone can be a Deborah. Everyone can see a need and take a matter in private and to help and coach and inspire each other to to help in the truth. And so if we can stand up and be leaders in that responsibilities and to fulfill our God-given roles, we can inspire others to the potential in the truth as we walk together in unity to fight our oppressor. And at the end of the battle, Deborah and Bayrack sing the song.

15. 11:10

    And in our last class, we saw the remarkable Jewett that that these two sing. And you remember that they sung this song not to the nation of Israel, but to the rulers and the leaders that were amongst the nation as a warning of what was about to happen in their territory. Jabin, king of Canaan, might have dominated the North, but watch out every other king, Watch out every other Prince, because God and his people were coming for seizing their inheritance. And so we saw that Deborah and Bayrak sing about the leaders that stand up, and then they sing about the way in which God’s presence wasn’t like in times past. And the nation that flowed from Mount Table and that took the territory was like the 10,000 Saints that marched into Canaan to seize their inheritance, just like it was from Mount Sinai unto Mount Sier.

16. 12:04

    And we saw that that that the remarkable transformation came from a time which was absolutely leaderless, rudderless. The context of the nation at the time of Deborah and Beret was a time when there was nothing there. Leadership had ceased until Deborah stood up and then we saw that the blessing that they sing was the blessing of those that had willingly offered their lives and jeopardised their lives. This wasn’t, they didn’t, this didn’t contribute to the truth. They gave their lives to save their brethren. And in contrast to that, we saw the cursing of the slackers who didn’t, the tribes, the northern and the eastern tribes who refused to come across to help their brethren. And then they blessed jail for the heroic actions. And then the depiction, as we had read for us as an introduction tonight, as of Sisera’s mother and her impending doom.

17. 13:01

    And then finally, Deborah and Barack sing a plea for God’s ongoing support so that the nation would take back all the territories that so let all thine enemies perishow Yahweh. And then that love thee is the sun going for them. It’s might. And tonight, brothers and sisters, we want to have a look. That’s Cesar’s mum.

18. 13:23

    What is with Cesar’s mum at the end of this song? It’s almost like it’s randomly selected and added into the end of the story that we’ve got this picture of this, this mother looking out the window. Well, it’s not random, certainly isn’t random, and it’s marvellous. Brothers and sisters and young people, have a look at this.

19. 13:43

    So the context has been focusing on the remarkable bravery of leaders in Israel that jeopardized their life. The remnant of Ephraim and all of Benjamin and all the Bible students, those that hold the pen, put down their pen and pick up the sword with Manasseh and the the law givers from Zebulun. And they join forces as Bible students to chase sister and his army out the door. And Bayrak’s own tribe of Naphtali and Deborah, bringing the rest of them with them, joined in the battle to overcome their enemies.

20. 14:17

    And yet there were those who didn’t jeopardize their lives, those that didn’t, those that remained in the aisles, those that stayed in their ships, those that couldn’t be bothered. And we looked at all the excuses that we give, don’t we both and sisters to why we can’t do things when we’re asked. And I captured in the story of these tribes who didn’t respond.

21. 14:40

    And Deborah and Bayrack turned to the attention of the bravery of the key heroine of the story, jail. The bloodshed, the boldness, the beautiful brutal attack that she annihilates and decapitates Sister that he might never hurt or destroy or oppress amongst them ever again. And with the workman’s hammer and the nail of the tent, the two symbols of her frustration, the workman’s hammer, the reason they had relocated for employment and the tent peg representing her nomadic existence.

22. 15:09

    She blots Sisera out with Zealand frenzy and a complete destruction of that mind as she smites him through the temple. So now the song changes scene and it moves from the gruesome murder seat of Jails tent to the royal castle of Sisera’s mother. And the question we have to ask ourself is why change of scene?

23. 15:32

    What’s going on in the story? Well, you remember that the battle of Judges 4 actually had two parts and that reflected in this song you see the two parts, the overthrow of Israel’s enemies. We often read the story of the destruction of Sisera as the Battle of Judges 4, but the last few verses of Judges chapter 4 actually outline the second part of the battle. You see Part 1 was the battle against Sisera and his ultimate destruction and demise at the hand of Jail of Judges chapter 4 verses 11 to 22 and that’s what’s reflected in the song and Judges chapter 5 and verses 19 to 27. But Part 2 of the battle was going to be the battle of the children of Israel as God subdues verse 23 of Judges. For on that day Jabin king of Canaan before the children of Israel in the hand of the children is was going to prosper and prevail against Jabin the king of Canaan until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.

24. 16:39

    You see, what we realised by this is that Sisera and his battle was purely just the entrees to the main ’cause you see, the battle against Chabon and the restoration of all the cities and the villages that he had come that he had stolen was going to be captured by Deborah in the song of the story of Cicero’s mother. Judges chapter 5, verses 28 to 31. Ultimately the battle with sister was just a catalyst. The 10,000 men that would come, the rest of the nation would respond and galvanized as a nation, they would now completely eradicate and the oppressive regime of Jabin, king of Canaan, with the support of Yahweh, Yahweh of armies. And what Deborah describes in the last part of his song, Brothers and Sisters and Young People, is the events that would precede the destruction of all those aligned to Jabin and his militant empire.

25. 17:45

    And so Deborah now wants to focus on the mother of Sisera. And though we provided this beautiful insight into the mind of a mother who raised this particular person, we get an insight by the sisters into her character, the type of person that she was, the type of narcissist she was. You see, this woman produced the iron fisted Cicera.

26. 18:17

    What was his home life like and what was she like? And don’t the way she’s introduced Judges chapter 5, verse 28, She’s the mother of Cicera that looked out a window. She’s called the mother of Cicera. And by the way, this is remarkable, isn’t it? A mother? She’s already mentioned another mother in this chapter already she’s called herself the mother of Israel. And now we’re introduced to the mother of Cicera. And you couldn’t get a more stark contrast between these two mothers, brothers and sisters in the story. We have the Mother of Israel, verse 7, the prophetess who gave a servant, who willingly offered herself a woman hit the top of Mount Table, who was in the heart of the battle, surrounded by her warriors, who cared for her people and their salvation, and who would sing praises of Yahweh’s victory compared to the woman, The mother of Sisera, a queen who waited to receive and took whatever she could.

27. 19:33

    A royal, as we’ll see, who expected to be waited on a woman in her upper chamber who was as far away from the battle as she possibly could be, surrounded not by her worries but by her princesses that she totally ignores, who cares only for slaves and for spoils of war, and who’s whinging to her companions about the delay of the arrival’s stolen merchandise. Our brothers and sisters, these two mothers couldn’t be different.

28. 20:03

    You couldn’t get a stark a contrast between these two mothers if you if you tried and their outlook on their life. And they stand representative of the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent who each who had given birth 1 to A to a nation that was galvanized to save another who was trying to oppress and to destroy. And one mother is interested in her service to others, whilst the other is totally focused on herself and the ill gotten gains her brothers and sisters hidden in this story is so much more than that.

29. 20:48

    So we introduced her sisters mother who’s been anxiously awaiting the arrival of her son from the battlefield. And of course, while she’s starting to get anxious, look what it says in verse 28. The mother of sister is looking at the window and she’s crying through the lattice work. Why is this chariot so long and coming?

30. 21:10

    Why tarry the wheels of his Chariots? And she’s looking out this window and she’s crying. It means to, to to bawl, to cry shrilly, shrilly. She’s like anxious. She’s full of anxiety. What is she anxious about, those sisters? Well, tell me what she’s not anxious about. She’s not anxious about whether Sister had lost the battle.

31. 21:32

    Not at all. They didn’t even cross her mind. As if Sister had lose a battle, This is my son wasn’t even an option. They haven’t even crossed her mind. Israel was totally outnumbered, out manoeuvred and totally outgunned. They’d brought toothpicks to. They had brought a knife to a gunfight, toothpicks to a tank battle.

32. 21:52

    They had nothing. So Sister was going to wipe them out. Simple. What she’s anxious about, brothers and sisters, is what the Bible tells us this is. Look, she’s anxious about why the spoils of war. I want to get my hands on these things. She’s getting anxious about seeing the evidence of the spoils.

33. 22:11

    Surely that they must have made a plunder by now. Must have secured. Hurry up. Where is it? And the we. I want the woman for the slaves and the men and the fine garments for Sisera. It’s almost like Sisera had gone to the shops. Brothers and sisters, hurry up. I want to see what he’s got. She’s looking out a window.

34. 22:29

    And sisters. Oh, you don’t miss that phrase in the Bible, do you? Because this woman joins the lineage of a special breed of women. Hopefully you don’t look at windows, ladies.

35. 22:45

    A special breed of women who gaze arrogantly out of windows. You see here in the story we have sister’s mum and Judges chapter 5 and verse 2828 who’s greedily awaiting the spoils of war. Michael Saul’s daughter in Second Samuel chapter 6 verse 16 is going to cruelly despise the actions of her husband and her king.

36. 23:09

    And Jezebel brothers and sisters in Second Kings Chapter 9 verse 30 is callously going to seek to distract you from his murderous task. You see these women become known as those who look out at the window, pride and arrogance and cruelty as accurately portrayed Bill and sisters by the sin that they represented. And so she’s surrounded by whom?

37. 23:38

    Well, verse 29 says that her wise ladies answered her. Yeah. She returned answer to herself. Who? Her wise ladies, you know, we can come back to some of these slides if you if you want the passages. However, we’ll keep moving for for need for time. That word for wise ladies, brothers and sisters and young people was a special word that’s only used four other times throughout Scripture And the times that it’s used is used for the idea of a Princess or a noble woman. Now here’s your 4 quotes.

38. 24:15

    First of Kings 11 verse three, it’s used of Solomon’s wives and Easter chapter 1 and verse 18 it’s used for the ladies of Persia or the wives of all the Princess of Persia and Easter one verse 18 students in Isaiah 49, verse 23 of Queens and of Lamentations chapter 1 and verse one of the princesses.

39. 24:37

    And the point I wanted to make, brothers, sisters and young people, was this, that the ladies weren’t just maids, they were her royal companions. Now that’s fascinating because if they were her royal companions, what does that make Sasura’s mother? See, Sisura’s mother was obviously part of the royalty, part of the royal family, possibly married to Javan, king of Canaan, maybe even the queen.

40. 25:12

    We don’t know. We’re not told. But she was definitely part of the royalty. She’s definitely royalty. And she’s a lady of importance in the Empire surrounded by her royal princesses and who are classified as her wise ladies. And she’s sitting there at home out the window with her maidens waiting for the anxious arrival of her son. And she’s she’s sort of asking their counsel, but totally ignoring them.

41. 25:44

    You read that in the story. Look what it says verse 21. She asked the question, why is this Terry’s why is this chariot in so long in coming? Why carry the wheels of this chariot in as why does ladies return answer? Yeah, she returned answer to herself. She’s totally ignoring them. They speak and she cuts over them. Duh.

42. 26:03

    Why is this chariot coming? They begin to answer and she rudely and arrogantly cuts them off answering her own questions herself. And look what she sees in verse 30. Have they not speed? Have they not divided the prey to every man, a damsel or two to sister, a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers colours of need to work, need to work on both sides meet for the next of them that take the spoil.

43. 26:32

    Have they not speed? And have they not divided the prey? See, she’s she’s not interested in the death or the number of deaths or the casualties. She’s only interested in two things, only two things she wants to know about. The first is how many new damsels have they taken as prey? And it better be a good number.

44. 26:57

    And what sort of garments has Cicera got for me for the spoil? So the word damsels, brothers and sisters, means it’s a term of contempt. A wench just means a womb. How many more wombs did they get for us to be able to have more babies as slaves? That’s what she’s saying in the story. How can we get the increase of the slaves that we need in this empire?

45. 27:28

    Hope they’ve got some more wombs for us so that we can breed more slaves. But the garments, the slaves were sort of there or thereabouts, but the garments, the garments were something else. And her mind begins to turn on these garments, like she begins to be obsessed about them. And she’s like almost feeling the fabric and touching the the silk and feeling these special things. You read it in the record.

46. 27:52

    Look at her, she says. So every man, have they not speed, have they not divided? The prey to every man, a damsel or two to Sisera, a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers colours of need to work or divides colours of need to work on both sides. She begins to feel the fabric.

47. 28:08

    This can be amazing. You see, these diverse colours of needlework were embroidery. That’s really what it means. There are exotic garments made of expensive imported fabrics and cottons, most likely from Egypt and afar. These were the garments of the princesses, of the Queens, and of royalty. Psalm 45, verse 14, Ezekiel 26. These were the these were the garments of nobles or Princess.

48. 28:38

    They were female garments, brother sisters, they’re female garments. You see, the Hebrews excelled in the art of dying, as was seen by the way, not dying as in dying, but dying as in clothes dying. And and they were they were exceeded in that in making of garments and the dying of garments, especially in the round the Tabernacle and the priesty lobes, priesty robes and the expensive coats like Joseph’s, the Lord Jesus Christ’s who who were not to be cut. Delilah was probably one of the ones that would make these garments with the loom that she had no room now were highly prized possessions and treasured for life. These were the garments that Samson went and got from Ashkelon.

49. 29:29

    The walls usually came from Egyptians in excavations, brother sisters have revealed the wool dying. Art was a leading industry in central Israel. They were top top garments. But who were the garments for? You know, it’s better translated. Spoils of divers, coloured raiment for Sisera. Spoils of divers coloured raiment, embroidered, coloured raiment richly embroidered from the necks of them who are taken as spoil. They were going to be garments taken from the next of them who had taken a spoil.

50. 30:11

    Who was the spoil? Brothers, Sisters. Well, they were the damsels that they were going to be bringing. You see what damsels? How is that working? Well, you think about brothers, Sisters, if Cicero was trying to destroy 10,000 men, what did Cicero’s mother expect would happen next? Well, you see, they wouldn’t just stop at the destruction of 10,000 men.

51. 30:34

    They were going to get in their Chariots and they were going to circle all the villages and collect up all of these slaves and bring them all home to Hazel and take every bit of garment that they could for themselves. These are female garments and she couldn’t wait to get her hands on them.

52. 30:52

    These garments would be for her. This is what I’ve been looking forward to the latest shopping trip. It’s better than Country Rd. better than anything Mars can produce. But notice the keywords brothers and sisters that are mentioned here. Sister’s mother wanted to see the prisoners captured to take what brothers and sisters to take.

53. 31:19

    Oh, now these words are going to bounce off the page. A spoil and a prey. Now does that provide us brothers and sisters with any echoes? A spoil and a prey. The song focuses on the two phases of the battle against Sisera and the destruction of Sisera’s mother. Because riding up that valley was not going to be Sisera on his chariot or no.

54. 31:53

    These were going to be Yahweh Saints manifested in a unity in a unit glorifying him to take possession of that castle. The destruction of Sisera’s mother is prophetically going to be displayed in a type we see so many times in history. The overthrow of Sisera was going to be the destruction of Gog and the destruction of the mother of harlots and her daughters. It’s going to be manifested in the subjugation of Catholic Europe.

55. 32:36

    These events are set before us. The two phases of the destruction of this battle, Cicera and all of Jabin, king of Canaan and his territories with this woman and her daughters is going to be prophetic. Non sisters of the time of the end. And Deborah, brothers and sisters, sees in type this whole pattern being outworked.

56. 32:59

    And the events are set before us in such absolute detail and precision precision in the story that it perfectly depicts the events subsequent to Christ’s return. Have a look at this. So Sisera is going to not have just his own men. That Scissor is going to have a Confederate army. We know that because he had Harisheth of the Gentiles, a city of everyone that were mixed in metal workers in that place. Remember we looked at Harisheth of the Gentiles. Ezekiel 38 versus 4 to six.

57. 33:40

    It’s going to be a Confederate army that makes up Gogh’s army at the time of the end Scissor’s army. Notice what it says. It’s going to be full of swords, of Shields, of Chariots and horsemen. Judges 5 verse Judges 415 and five verse eight. Well, we know that is going to be exactly what Gog’s going to have at the time of the year in Ezekiel 38 verse 4.

58. 34:05

    Yahweh, it says, would fight against Sisera and had gone out before him exactly as God would do in Ezekiel 38 verse 18. And God had promised to Bay reckon in Judges chapter 4, verse six and seven, that He would draw Sisera unto him. That’s exactly what God says to go. I’m going to put hooks in your jaws and you’re going to come with me. Ezekiel 38 verse 4 Sisra’s motivation of that battle wasn’t just to destroy the 10,000 men, but as revealed by Sisra’s mother that he’d come to take a spoil and to pray. The two words that’s used of Gogan chapter 38 verse 12 of Ezekiel and Sisra’s army gathered as a great company. Ezekiel 38, verse 4, verse 7, verse 13, verse 15, the key expression used of Gogan his army. And God’s jealousy and God’s fury would come up his face, and that there would be a great shaking in the land, and there would be rain and hail and fire and brimstone, just as he would. And Ezekiel 38, verses 18 to 20, And a sword would go out against Sisera, just as it were with Gog. Sisera’s destruction was going to be prophesied by the prophets, just as it would be with Gog. The enemies would flee, and Yao and his Saints would come, and not a man will be left, says Ezekiel 38. This four, just as it was with Cicero. And here brothers and scissors.

59. 35:43

    In the story Sister is clearly set out as a type of Gog himself, leading forth his confederate host. And his ultimate destruction was going to be foreshadowed in the work of Christ and the Saints, and the March of the rainbowed Angel, and the arrival of the man of Bowser of Isaiah 63, as the ones who shine forth from Mount Sier and March from Sinai unto the sanctuary. The words we know well, the work of Christ and the redeemed and the glorified Saints who are going to come to destroy the the oppressor of God’s people who had taken their land. It’s remarkable isn’t it, about the sisters? As the battle and the destruction of Sisera was the intro entree to the main affair, the overthrow of Jabin and the taking back of the stolen cities, so too is Armageddon to the battle against Jezebel, the mother of harlots, the conquest of Catholic Europe.

60. 36:44

    And you can’t miss the skin, you brothers and sisters. Daniel’s image has 2 phases, 2 with a stone, the smashing of the image on the feet and the grinding of it to powder. And there is no better and more fitting description of the harlot system of Catholic Europe than the depiction of Jezebel surrounded by her daughters, which have made themselves drunk with the blood of the Saints. Then what is depicted here in the story of Sister’s mother surrounded by her wise ladies, dreaming of the spoils of war and the merchandise to come?

61. 37:22

    And as the destruction of Sister is just a catalyst to bring the nation together as they seek to restore the territories of that they’d lost to Jabin, King of Canaan, King Sin, lorded over by Citra’s mother, we see depicted in Jezebel the Second. The mother of harlots, the abomination of the earth, the great whore to whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication. And look at the picture painted for us in Revelation 17 and 18. It’s matched.

62. 37:50

    You see, here we have a great whore. Do you know what she’s arrayed in brothers and sisters? She’s arrayed in garments of diverse colours. Funny that, isn’t it? She sits as a queen. She rules over many peoples, nations, and multitudes. Who’s been working? Why with the merchants of the earth. Who was? Who were the Canaanites? Brothers and sisters?

63. 38:17

    They were a group of traders, as we showed in our first study of merchants of the Earth who controlled the trade and waxed rich through the abundance of their delicacies. See who was controlling trade at the time of Deborah and Bayrack, Brothers, Sisters, because these nation of Israel had to go by the goat tracks to walk around. No one walked on the highway.

64. 38:38

    This queen sat across all of that. And what key things does Revelation 18 tell us that this harlot system loves? Well, they love goods, merchandise, and the souls of men.

65. 38:58

    And her destruction. We know in Revelation 18 don’t have any time to look at this? Get the do some, do some research and have a look at yourself. It’s remarkable because her destruction will be swift, totally unexpected. In one hour she’ll reward double for all her sins and the Saints will once again 1st 4th into song as they did in Exodus in in Judges chapter 5 verse 2.

66. 39:26

    Because depicted for us in Revelation 19 is the song of the Yahweh’s Saints who praise and sing because Yahweh has finally avenged his people. So the destruction of sister, brothers and sisters is followed by the annihilation of sisters, mother, who foreshadow the work of Christ and the Saints and the Jews, and the work of Armageddon and the subjugation of the nations that have joined themselves to this harlot system. And Europe is cleansed.

67. 40:05

    And by this process, by the sisters, Yahweh will redeem and avenge His people who have cried out from under the altars and have cried throughout time to be saved, and will cause His Kingdom to once more be established. And those Saints to be redeemed and a time of rest, brothers and sisters, will be ushered into being, just as we have recorded for us in Judges chapter 5. It’s an absolutely stunning and remarkable prophetic type that Deborah sees before her in the panorama of history has revealed to this particularly incredibly insightful propheties. And so she finishes her song Brothers and sisters. In verse 31.

68. 40:59

    She says, So let all thine enemies perish, O Yahweh, but let them that love Him be as the Son when he goeth forth in his might. Let them that love Him be as the sun, a brilliant, radiant sun that goes forth in full glory. And here Deborah beautifully and poetically pictures the work of the Saints like the sun, as it bursts forth in full brilliance, the rays of which will shine with burning fury to execute vengeance on all of Yahweh’s enemies.

69. 41:43

    You see, this prophecy wasn’t in song, wasn’t about just Jabin, was it? It was about all of God’s enemies that they would have the same treatment by Yahweh as they go forth and note she’s picking up the courageous and positive actions of the warriors who would go forth against their enemies. And here in the record, those that went forth on this occasion was Bayrak and his men.

70. 42:09

    In Judges chapter 4, verse 14 and 16, it was going to be jail in her actions in verse 18 and 22 of chapter 4. It was going to be Yahweh Himself that would go forth in verse 14 and chapter 5 and verse 4, and it was going to be the tribes who respond in chapter 5, verse 14 and 15.

71. 42:28

    There were those who volunteered, the Saints who volunteered and jeopardised their lives in service to their brethren to do what brothers and sisters to bring about Yahweh’s judgement. And it’s a glorious and vivid picture of the sun bursting forth as these wonderful volunteers had donated their lives and service to their God. And you know what, brothers, Sisters, if you can find me where else it might say about the sun going forth in his might, I am all ears. But I’ve only found one passage in the Scripture that refers to the way in which the sun bursts forth in his might. And you wouldn’t guess where that is, would you? It’s the Revelation chapter 1, the vision of John, of the man of the one, the vision John sees. Just come with me to Revelation chapter 1. Have a look at this Revelation chapter 1. Here’s, here’s the Saints, the glorified Saints in Christ executing vengeance on Yahweh’s enemies. And in this vision of Revelation chapter 1, John is shown and going to be revealed to the one who would bring to pass and reveal the message of God’s judgement. And here this revelation and this prophecy of the future and the judgement is going to be poured out upon Yahweh’s enemies, and it’s going to be given by a man who’s likened unto the Son of Man, and he’s going to execute judgement and vengeance and establish the Kingdom of God. And it’s not just Christ, is it, brothers and sisters, but a multitudinous Christ body who is manifested in full glory as the glorified Saints.

72. 44:34

    You see John sees revealed before him the 10,000 men that Moses refers to in his song in chapter 33, The 10,000 men that Judges chapter 4 describe John sees one like the Son of Man. Look what it sees in verse 10 of Revelation chapter 1. And I was in the spirit, he says on the Lord’s day, the time of the return of Christ, the time when execution was ready.

73. 45:06

    And he heard behind me a great voice as the voice, as as of a trumpet, saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the 1st and the last. And what thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven Ecclesius which are in Asia, unto Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.

74. 45:25

    And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me, And being turned, I saw 7 Kelvin candlesticks. And in the midst of that 7 candlesticks was one like unto the Son of Man, and look what he’s wearing, brothers and sisters. Well, he’s clothed to the priest. He’s clothed with a garment down to the foot and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.

75. 45:51

    This is the Saints perfected as priests, brothers and sisters, The golden girdle representing the immortalised Saints ministering that’s been wrapped around this. These are workers, brothers and sisters, the girdle that’s girded on to serve, now ministering to the needs of others in an active service. And his head, he says, and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow.

76. 46:15

    And his arms were a flame of fire. His hair was wool and and white. This is the Saints, washed and cleansed in the blood of the Lamb, his eyes a flame of fire. This is the intelligence of divine judgement as they execute God’s vengeance and his feet, He says, verse 15 was like fine brass, as as if they burned in a furnace.

77. 46:40

    You see, this is the incandescent branch of the Saints that go forth to tread down the wicked and to execute divine judgement. And I have a voice. His voice was the sound of many waters. You see, this is the purified and perfected Saints who are going to call out and who are called out from many people’s nations and tongue. Many waters have been gathered from everywhere, all the tribes coming together.

78. 47:09

    And in his mouth, in his right hand, he had seven stars. And out of his mouth was a sharp 2 edged sword. He’d be Cicero was going to die by the sword. His men were going to be died, killed by the sword. And here’s the Saints with the two edged sword, divine judgement to execute judgement of the message that would come forth out of the mouth. But above all of this, brothers and sisters, you see what His countenance is.

79. 47:42

    What is His countenance going to be like? Verse 16, His countenance was this, the sun shining in His strength. Look at his countenance. It’s the sun shining in his strength. You see, here is the reenactment of the way in which the Saints would once more again participate in assisting Yahweh execute the vengeance of His enemies.

80. 48:11

    The Book of Revelation, just as the song of Deborah, was going to be a message not only of hope and relief to the Saints, but a warning to the world, of warning that the judgement was coming and a council to come out of her and to be turned unto Yahweh Elohim of Israel. You see both of these books, brother and sisters, both of these stories are recorded both as a message for the Saints who were under oppression, under trial, under tribulation, and a word of warning to those that would oppose God. But the Saints, brothers and sisters would have realized, just as the as the people of Israel would have realized in the time of Deborah and Bayrek in jail, that God will never ever cast aside those who love Him and that truly seek His face insincerity and in truth.

81. 49:25

    And John has shown a picture on the Isle of Patmos, Patmos in solitary of the hope that was set before him, that he might not lose hope and he might see how God will bring to pass his Saints. John has was shown a man who represented the 10,000 of Yahweh’s Saints, glorified and immortalized volunteers who’d made themselves ready to lead captivity captive and to bring into subjection all of Yahweh’s enemies, that God might save his people.

82. 50:06

    So let all thine enemies perish, and let them be them that love Him. Be like the sun going forth in his strengths. You see, brothers and sisters, we can have so much faith in our God that He seeks our welfare and will save us from our oppression. And the story of Deborah and the story of Bayrack and the story of Jail shows us just how leadership can motivate and inspire others to fulfil God’s purpose in every single one of us. Leadership is not a request, as we saw in our previous study. It’s a commandment we all must respond to demonstrate our love for our God and to see what He’s done for us. Leadership’s not always about being out the front. In fact, most of the time it’s not. Leadership’s about seeing a need, taking initiative to go forth in positive action, to motivate others in the truth that by our example and by our dedication and by our service and our encouragement, we can show God’s love to one another. But it requires courage, it requires bravery, it requires spiritual perception, and it requires diligence. The story shows us the need that we have brothers and sisters to serve one another as our Lord has shown us, to be a willing volunteer, to put her hand up, to be prepared in His service. To show how much we appreciate His mercy and His love in our lives so that we, like those of Israel who responded, are prepared to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. That has shown us how we can lead in our God-given roles, both men and women, as we

83. 52:10

    endeavour to serve and her service. The question for us is how will we respond? How will we act? May these remarkable men and women have inspired and encouraged us as their faithfulness shown, who in the distress and oppression and time of need, trusted in their God and who willingly volunteered, offering themselves and service. May their example motivate us to do the same and encourage each other as we await for the day when judgement will come and God’s Kingdom is here.

84. 53:11

    I think I only have one thing to say to that. Wow. It shows us what sometimes what can come out of three or four small verses, how we need to be diligent when we do our daily readings.

85. 53:32

    You know, thank you for that Ezekiel revelation, all taken back from in those four verses. Thank you. We’ve seen the remarkable faith of Deborah and Barack in jail

86. 53:51

    and you asked the question, are we ready? Are we ready for her? When God calls us to say here am I, send me. That’s a question that only you can answer and I can only answer for myself as well. But hopefully when that time does come, we are prepared to put our hand up. Now a few announcements.

87. 54:21

    Supper will be served at the conclusion of our meeting tonight. Our next organised activity is set down for 10:30 AM. It’s an occlusional outing at Bel Air National Park. Now we’ve been told the weather’s going to be fair. I’ve learnt to understand over the last 2 1/2 years of living in Adelaide what the word fair means. It could be anything but I will read the note that I have. The forecast for Saturday morning is for some light showers.

88. 54:51

    At this stage we will go ahead with the outing at Bellaire National Park. Meet at 10:30 at the Walnut Walnut Paddock site for those not S Australians that’s going to be interested for Lorinda and I to find that. This can be accessed by driving in or by parking outside the park and walking in. If you wish to drive in, there is an entry cost of $12.50 per vehicle.

89. 55:17

    For those wishing to walk, the best parking is in the gravel car park opposite the old Golf Course Clubhouse. This can be accessed by entering the driveway for driveway or the caravan park off Upper Sturt Road and following it until you reach the gravel parking lot. A gate here gives access to the park. I hope everyone’s taking notes.

90. 55:43

    It is about 1 kilometer 10 to 15 minute walk to Walnut Paddock. From there bring your picnic rug, lawn games and sports equipment. A bike ride suitable for kids and parents will be organized as well as an easy hike. I’m not sure if that’s a 10 to 15 minute walk to get there in the first place. A little further into the park.

91. 56:05

    Lunch will be provided and look forward to seeing everyone there in their raincoats. So sounds like a wonderful time to be had by all of our ecclesia and visitors as well. Sunday School is this coming Sunday, God willing. Commencing at 9:00 AM. The memorial meeting commences at 10:45. Please be seated by 10:30 ex or by our brother Sam on Christ leading captivity captive presider is brother Peter Atkins.

92. 56:37

    Read our brother Michael O’Callaghan, Michael E O’Callaghan and organist sister Laurenda Casey. Meeting will be followed by a sit down roast dinner. Sounds pretty good. So let us brethren and sisters bring this part of our meeting to a conclusion, after which we’ll enjoy fellowship with each other around tea and coffee and supper. We conclude with Him 402 after which I’d ask you remain standing, why we seek God’s blessing. The.

93. 58:17

    The. The. Great or powerful God, our loving Heavenly Father once more dear God, we desire to come into Thy presence through this awesome privilege that you’ve given us of prayer to be able to place our needs, our petitions, our love, everything before you. This we can do at any time of the day.

94. 59:38

    We can do it alone or we can do it as a community and as a community. Now we approach you to praise Your great name, to thank you for the many blessings that you give us. The opportunity come aside from the things of the world, the mundane things of life, to consider your great principles, the stories that you have left of those of past ages who can motivate us and exhort us if we would only take the time to delve deeper into Your Word, Your Word, which is the power of salvation.

95. 1:00:15

    Oh dear God, grant us wisdom. We pray grant us understanding. That we may do your pleasure and when necessary and we are called, that we may each individually say, like Isaiah, here am I, send me. So dear God, we thank you for this night. We give you thanks now for the provision of food that you’ve provided for our benefit once more by the loving hands that have prepared it to our benefit, that we may be refreshed. We pray, dear God, earnestly for the coming of your Son, the establishment of your Kingdom.

96. 1:00:56

    And we do pray earnestly, dear God, that through Your grace we may be given a place in that Kingdom to reign as kings and priests with your Son, to become teachers to the mortal population, and eventually to be in you. All in all, at the end of that thousand years, we give you no peace until that time is established, dear God.

97. 1:01:22

    And now, as we depart from this place, we ask that you be with us and to take us to our homes in safety, that on the Morrow we may rise and praise you in our daily life by all the things that we do, say and think. Hear our prayer, we pray, accept our thanksgivings as we offer it through Jesus Christ our Lord.

98. 1:01:44

    Amen. Music.
