PROPHETIC CHAMBER
In connection with the conception and birth of Jesus Christ, who was conceived and born by the virgin Mary through the Holy Spirit, it's interesting to mention and unfold the meaning of time of the new kingship and priesthood in Jesus Christ (see Luke 1:30-35).
 
Luke 1:30-35:
30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God.
31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.
32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”
34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”
35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God.
 
This kingship and priesthood is eternal and has its origin in the divine sonship according to the order of Melchizedek (see Hebrews 5:5-6).
 
Hebrews 5:5-6:
5 In the same way, Christ did not take on himself the glory of becoming a high priest. But God said to him, “You are my Son; today I have become your Father.”
6 And he says in another place, “You are a priest forever, in the order of Melchizedek.”
 
The Influential Movements And Their Knowledge
 
At the time of the conception of Jesus Christ up to His birth there were various influential movements which recognized through the influence of divine revelation, that a new king would be born or was born.
 
The Wise Men
 
First of all, these were the magicians (note: wise men) who looked into the dark night sky and saw a bright star at their time and realized that a king would be born, so that they set off on their way to Jerusalem, the governmental capital of Israel, to meet the newborn King.
The wise men assumed that they would find Him in the capital, since it was where the seat of government was (see Matthew 2:1-2).
 
Matthew 2:1-2:
1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”
 
The Dark Night Sky And The Open Door In The Sky
 
I personally consider the dark night sky and the rising bright star as an open door, as John saw it in the Book of Revelation because the wise men had to look up into the night sky to see.
This door is related to the insight into the realm of divine government (note: throne room; see Revelation 4:1-2).
 
Revelation 4:1-2:
1 After this I looked, and there before me was a door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”
2 At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it.
 
Since Jesus said of Himself that He is the door, His birth is equal to the open door in heaven leading into the reign of the Heavenly Father (see John 10:9 i.c.w. John 14:6).
 
John 10:9:
9 I am the gate (note: door); whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture.
 
John 14:6:
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
 
The birth of Jesus Christ marked the beginning of the new kingdom in the sonship of God which is the order of Melchizedek, that includes eternal kingship and priesthood.
 
The Shaking Of Earthly Government
 
The birth of Jesus Christ which can also be seen as the birth of the new wineskin in the form of the kingly – heavenly government (see Mark 2:22), brought a shock to the earthly government of Israel and its society (see Matthew 2:2-3).
 
Matthew 2:2-3:
… 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”
3 When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.
 
As a result, the Word of God was consulted by Herod to find out where the new King (note: eternal kingship) arose, which was in Bethlehem – “the house of bread” (see Matthew 2:4-6).
 
Matthew 2:4-6:
4 When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born.
5 “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written: 6 “ ‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will shepherd my people Israel.’”
 
Revelation And The Word Of God
 
Even as king Herod asked the chief priests and the scribes for the birthplace of the new king (note: the eternal kingdom) on the basis of deceitfulness, nowadays his behavior should draw our attention to the fact that revelation/prophecy always goes in accordance with the Word of God (see 2 Peter 1:19-21).
 
2 Peter 1:19-21:
19 We also have the prophetic message as something completely reliable, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a light shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
20 Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things.
21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
 
The Response Of Leaders At The Time Of Jesus' Birth
 
It is interesting to note that leaders and influential persons reacted differently to Jesus' coming at the time of His conception and birth.
 
Through the right discernment of times, the wise men first recognized the time of Jesus' birth, because they looked into the dark night sky and saw the bright star which was a sign for them that a king was born.
 
The Stars And The Fourth Day Of Creation
 
Among other things, it were the stars that God created on the fourth day and which are to serve people as signs of special times, and days and years.
It is no coincidence that the number “4” is connected to the “open door”.
 
The Hebrew letter “Daleth” has the numerical value of “4” and means among other things “door”. Furthermore, the letter bears the pictographic representation of an “open tent door” (Genesis 1:14-19).
 
Genesis 1:14-19:
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so.
16 God made two great lights – the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars.
17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 And there was evening, and there was morning – the fourth day.
 
On the basis of the wise men's testimony of the birth of the new King, king Herod and Jerusalem's society were frightened so that he instructed the trained people in the Word of God to seek the truth.
The chief priests and scribes then searched in the Word of God and found the truth in the book of the prophet Micah (see Micah 5:2).
 
Micah 5:2:
2 “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.”
 
The Open Eyes Of The Heart
 
The shepherds, too, who guarded their sheep in the field, received open eyes of their hearts at the time of the birth of Jesus, so that they could look directly into the spiritual realm of the region and saw the angelic movement and heard the divine revelation.
As a result, they came to the birthplace of the new eternal kingdom and paid tribute to the new King Jesus Christ and spoke to men about His birth in the power of knowledge (see Luke 2:8-20).
 
Luke 2:8-20:
8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.
9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.
11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord.
12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”
13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”
15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”
16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger.
17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.
19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.
20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
 
Revelation And Humility
 
At the time of the birth of Jesus, it were the wise men and the shepherds who, on the basis of revelation and a humble heart came on time to the birthplace of the kingship of Jesus in order to be first in the presence of Jesus Christ and to glorify Him on earth (see Matthew 2:9-11 i.c.w. Luke 2:15-20).
 
Matthew 2:9-11:
9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was.
10 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed.
11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.
12 And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.
 
Luke 2:15-20:
15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”
16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger.
17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.
19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.
20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.
 
Conclusion
 
It needs a humble attitude of heart and expectation to receive and walk in divine revelation for this time. If someone does not have this attitude, he/she is not able to understand the kingdom of heaven and the Father's high plans for this time.
 
This can even lead to the fact that one moves forward only in the power of the letter associated with death, which means that one opposes the new spiritual life that the Lord brings at this time (see 2 Corinthians 3:6).
 
2 Corinthians 3:6:
6 He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
 
Amen and Amen.

PROPHESIED ON THE 30'st OF DECEMBER 2017 | 12'th OF TEBETH 5778, NAJOTH BERLIN-SPANDAU
 
“There is the measure of surrender and adoration of one year to the Lord which fills the spiritual time frame of the new year!
This fragrance is not an ordinary aroma! It is the fragrance of the anointing in your life which is associated with your dedication, says the spirit of the prophet (see John 12:1-3; Mark 14:3)!
God is in the process of writing history through brokenness (see Psalm 34:18)!
There is the new way which causes something old to be buried, so that the new can come forth through the power of God!
Pay attention to the sown “seed” which has fallen into the new and untouched field because it is about the new life (see John 12:24 i.c.w. Matthew 27:59-60; Hebrews 10:19-20; Acts 17:18d-20)!
There is the strength of the second that closes an hour, a day, a month and a year to go through Jesus Christ Who is the door and the Alpha and Omega (see John 10:9 i.c.w. Revelation 22:13)!
The end of the expired phase of time and the beginning of the new time phase in Jesus Christ is connected with the release of an old structure in order to be able to stand in the new environment!
It is the environment that is accompanied by supernatural provision, which first touches the spirit and then the soul and has an effect on the whole body, says the spirit of the prophet (see Psalm 23:1-3)!
In the new phase of time, pay attention to the presence of CHRIST, THE ANOINTED ONE because His presence, in connection with your given anointing, brings great impact to the region in which His presence draws you!
It is not enough for you to activate your anointing alone but to associate it with the presence of Christ Jesus!
As a result, there is deliverance within the region because His redemption and the power of God interact!
It is a connection of heaven and earth, so that the yoke of the prince of the air is broken above the particular region (see Ephesians 2:2 i.c.w. Isaiah 10:27)!
The presence of the destructive power of the “letter“ will be transformed into life through divine surrender, because it is about the presence of the Holy Spirit, Who brings order and peace, says the spirit of the prophet (see 2 Corinthians 3:6 i.c.w. 1 Corinthians 14:33a)!
There is the power of confrontation in love and truth to bring conviction (see Luke 7:39-47).”
 
Amen and Amen.

PROPHETIC CHAMBER
Introduction
 
On the basis of the Word from 1 Samuel 9-10, the Holy Spirit revealed to me the desire of the Heavenly Father to see every single one of His people in their calling, or rather in the whole measure of the fullness of Jesus Christ (see Ephesians 4:13).
 
Ephesians 4:13:
… 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.
 
The Searching For The Donkeys
 
In 1 Samuel 9-10 it is about Saul having received the instruction from his father Kish – “bow” (note: governmental presence of the Father; see Ezekiel 1:28 i.c.w. Revelation 4:3), who was a man from the tribe of Benjamin – “Son of the right hand of God” (note: the love and grace of God through Jesus Christ; see Luke 22:69) and a son of Abiel – “My Father is God.” (note: The knowledge of life in the relationship with God the Father; see Galatians 4:6-7) to seek his donkeys who were lost in the land.
 
Saul was accompanied by the servant of his father who accompanied him on the mission to find the donkeys (see 1 Samuel 9:1-3)
 
1 Samuel 9:1-3:
1 There was a Benjamite, a man of standing, whose name was Kish son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bekorath, the son of Aphiah of Benjamin.
2 Kish had a son named Saul, as handsome a young man as could be found anywhere in Israel, and he was a head taller than anyone else.
3 Now the donkeys belonging to Saul’s father Kish were lost, and Kish said to his son Saul, “Take one of the servants with you and go and look for the donkeys.”
 
During the search they wandered through different regions and came to the area of Zuph – “honey cell, overflow, honeycomb”, where Saul wanted to stop searching for the donkeys and turn back to his father.
 
Holding Fast To The Father's Mission
 
But his servant did not stop looking for the donkeys, which led them to approach a man of God of whom they knew nothing but that he acted in the prophetic anointing.
 
Because of the prophetic anointing under which the man of God, who was Samuel, the seer or prophet, operated, Saul and his servant were willing to invest in his prophetic anointing because they knew that they would receive guidance through the prophetic counsel of Samuel (see 1 Samuel 9:4-10).
 
1 Samuel 9:4-10:
4 So he passed through the hill country of Ephraim and through the area around Shalisha, but they did not find them. They went on into the district of Shaalim, but the donkeys were not there. Then he passed through the territory of Benjamin, but they did not find them.
5 When they reached the district of Zuph, Saul said to the servant who was with him, “Come, let’s go back, or my father will stop thinking about the donkeys and start worrying about us.”
6 But the servant replied, “Look, in this town there is a man of God; he is highly respected, and everything he says comes true. Let’s go there now. Perhaps he will tell us what way to take.”
7 Saul said to his servant, “If we go, what can we give the man? The food in our sacks is gone. We have no gift to take to the man of God. What do we have?”
8 The servant answered him again. “Look,” he said, “I have a quarter of a shekel of silver. I will give it to the man of God so that he will tell us what way to take.”
9 (Formerly in Israel, if someone went to inquire of God, they would say, “Come, let us go to the seer,” because the prophet of today used to be called a seer.)
10 “Good,” Saul said to his servant. “Come, let’s go.” So they set out for the town where the man of God was.
 
The Area Of "Zuph" And The Advice Of The Servant
 
It was in the area of Zuph – “honeycomb”, where Saul wanted to break off the search; but thanks to the advice and the willingness of his servant to invest, Saul did not stop searching for his father's donkeys.
 
In the midst of the area of the “honeycomb – Zuph” Saul was at risk not longer to follow his father's instruction and to prepare himself to return to him because he allowed false conclusions to operate in his soul (note: the seat of will, emotion and mind).
 
According to the Word of God, honey is the attribute that leads to the enlightenment of the eyes in order to obtain strength and a great victory (see 1 Samuel 14:29-30).
 
1 Samuel 14:29-30:
29 Jonathan said, “My father has made trouble for the country. See how my eyes brightened when I tasted a little of this honey.
30 How much better it would have been if the men had eaten today some of the plunder they took from their enemies. Would not the slaughter of the Philistines have been even greater?”
 
And it is the guidance of the Holy Spirit (note: represented by the servant of the father of Saul) who leads with revelation into all truth to bring God's people to the place of destiny (see John 16:13-15).
 
John 16:13-15:
13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
14 He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you.
15 All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”
 
The Donkeys And The Anointing Of The Tribe Of Issachar
 
In connection with Saul's search for his father's donkeys, I would like to equate the lost donkeys with the anointing of the tribe of Issachar.
It is the anointing to discern the times and seasons in order to give counsel to those who have no understanding of the times (see Genesis 49:14a i.c.w. 1 Chronicles 12:32).
 
Genesis 49:14a:
14a “Issachar is a rawboned donkey …
 
1 Chronicles 12:32:
… 32 from Issachar, men who understood the times and knew what Israel should do – 200 chiefs, with all their relatives under their command; …
 
The Beauty Of Saul
 
In our lives, it also happens that we occasionally find ourselves in similar situations as Saul, who was a beautiful man.
 
In this case, Saul's beauty represents the walk in the glory of God, because he reflected the image of his father.
 
Every single human being has been wonderfully created by the Heavenly Father, but unfortunately not every human being recognizes or acknowledges God as the Father (see Psalm 139:13-14).
 
Psalm 139:13-14:
13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
 
As believers in Jesus Christ, however, we have the privilege of knowing God as the Father in order to reflect Him (note: His love) before the people in our environment as Jesus Christ did (see John 3:16 i.c.w. John 14:6.9b).
 
John 3:16:
16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
 
John 14:6.9b:
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. …
… 9b Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.
 
The Seeming Phase Of “Loss”
 
God occasionally lets us enter into similar situations of “loss” so that we may seek to go deeper into the prophetic anointing that He has prepared for us.
 
In short, the prophetic anointing implies to look by faith through the influence of the Holy Spirit into the supernatural realm to see what God is currently revealing.
 
When God, the Heavenly Father gives us a mission, it is connected with His desire to lead us deeper into His being.
 
The divine - fatherly mission has the effect that we feel a desire in us to seek what we lack.
This is a normal spiritual process, which is to be equated with the thirst and hunger for more of God and His presence (see John 7:37 i.c.w. Matthew 7:9-11).
 
John 7:37:
37 On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, “Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink.
 
Matthew 7:9-11:
9 “Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone?
10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?
11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
 
This kind of search means that we receive from God what we are looking for (see Matthew 7:7).
 
Matthew 7:7:
7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.
 
While Saul and his servant did not abandon the father's mandate to continue their search for the donkeys, they approached step by step the prophetic presence of God (note: represented by the prophet Samuel).
 
The Importance Of Spirit-Filled Women
 
A very important position in their search for prophetic orientation was given to the young women who were on their way to draw water (see 1 Samuel 9:11-14).
 
1 Samuel 9:11-14:
11 As they were going up the hill to the town, they met some young women coming out to draw water, and they asked them, “Is the seer here?”
 
It is very important that we, as men in the Body of Christ, do not underestimate the importance of the spirit-filled (note: born from above) women because they are helpful in leading us to fullness!
 
It is not for nothing that Adam needed a female helper for his task (see Genesis 2:18).
 
Genesis 2:18:
18 The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”
 
True spiritual life can only be created and maintained by men and women in cooperation!
 
The direction of the young women of Saul's time, who honored the movement of the Holy Spirit and the revealing truth of God (note: they were on the way to draw water), led Saul to meet Samuel with his servant and to be anointed by him in a higher authority, which was that of the king.
 
But this, however, was not yet the end, Saul received the direction from Samuel, where he would find the donkeys of his father, in order to fulfill his father's task completely (see 1 Samuel 9:17-20 i.c.w. 1 Samuel 10:1).
 
1 Samuel 9:17-20:
17 When Samuel caught sight of Saul, the Lord said to him, “This is the man I spoke to you about; he will govern my people.”
18 Saul approached Samuel in the gateway and asked, “Would you please tell me where the seer’s house is?”
19 “I am the seer,” Samuel replied. “Go up ahead of me to the high place, for today you are to eat with me, and in the morning I will send you on your way and will tell you all that is in your heart.
20 As for the donkeys you lost three days ago, do not worry about them; they have been found. And to whom is all the desire of Israel turned, if not to you and your whole family line?”
 
1 Samuel 10:1:
1 Then Samuel took a flask of olive oil and poured it on Saul’s head and kissed him, saying, “Has not the Lord anointed you ruler over his inheritance?
 
Conclusion
 
Saul entered deeper into the prophetic anointing by the mission of his father Kish (note: to seek the donkeys), which brought him into a higher sphere of authority.
 
It was the prophetic anointing that transformed Saul into a new man (see 1 Samuel 10:5-6).
 
1 Samuel 10:5-6:
5 “After that you will go to Gibeah of God, where there is a Philistine outpost. As you approach the town, you will meet a procession of prophets coming down from the high place with lyres, timbrels, pipes and harps being played before them, and they will be prophesying.
6 The Spirit of the Lord will come powerfully upon you, and you will prophesy with them; and you will be changed into a different person.
 
Through the process of Saul's searching it becomes clear that God, the Heavenly Father, has a greater plan for us than we primarily think.
 
His mission to us in our process of searching is not only to find what we are looking for, but to enter an even higher realm of His presence and authority to administer His plans and high thoughts on earth (see Isaiah 55:8-9).
 
Isaiah 55:8-9:
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
 
Amen and Amen.
 
In His Wisdom,
