PROPHETIC CHAMBER
Note:
The following message is the second part of a teaching that consists of two parts.
It is recommended to read the message chronologically.
 
The Characteristic of the Seraphim and the Desert
 
The characteristic of the seraphim is related to the desert and Jesus Christ on the cross, because the people of Israel encountered the fiery (note: Hebrew ‘śārāṗ’) serpents due to their murmuring in the desert, so that many Israelites died. Moses made based on the instruction of God a lifted bronze serpent on a staff, so that anyone who looked at that lifted serpent after being bitten by a fiery serpent would be saved from death.
 
This event and the raised serpent were already pointing to Jesus Christ on the cross, who became the curse for mankind, in order to give those who would believe in Him the possibility to receive eternal life (Numbers 21:6-9 i.c.w. John 3,14-17; Galatians 3,13-14).
 
Numbers 21:6-9:
6 Then the Lord sent venomous snakes among them; they bit the people and many Israelites died.
7 The people came to Moses and said, “We sinned when we spoke against the Lord and against you. Pray that the Lord will take the snakes away from us.” So Moses prayed for the people.
8 The Lord said to Moses, “Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.”
9 So Moses made a bronze snake and put it up on a pole. Then when anyone was bitten by a snake and looked at the bronze snake, they lived.
 
John 3:14-17:
14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.”
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.
17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
 
Galatians 3:13:
13 Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.”
 
It was also the wilderness where the forerunner for Jesus Christ, who was the prophet John the Baptist, dwelt and prophesied (cf. Mark 1:3).
 
Mark 1:3:
… 3 “a voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.’ ”
 
In this context, the desert represents a place of separation from society, which is similar to a consecrated state, since the word ‘holy’ can also be translated as ‘being set apart’. It was the prophetic anointing of John the Baptist by which people were drawn out of their lives in society into the desert in order to enter into the process of repentance and conversion, and herein become consecrated vessels for God.
 
The Fiery Furnace and the Lion of Judah
 
The living ‘furnace of fire’ composed of the seraphim, which Isaiah saw in his vision in the throne room of God, revealed the presence of Jesus Christ as the Crucified. It is the presence that carries within it the Lion of the tribe of Judah and the fear of the LORD. This is especially evident because the Hebrew word for ‘altar hearth – ‘ărî’ēl’ sounds just as phonetically as the Hebrew word for ‘lion’.
It is the lion of the tribe of Judah interwoven in the spirit realm with the slain Lamb of God, as Revelation 5:5-6 explains to us.
 
Revelation 5:5-6:
5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open the scroll and its seven seals.”
6 Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at the center of the throne, encircled by the four living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
 
It is the seraphim who are assisting in bringing our spirit being into the victory realm of the cross of Christ, so that in His holy presence we may have that which has defiled our inner being finally purified (cf. Ephesians 4:23 i.c.w. Isaiah 6:6-7).
 
Ephesians 4:23:
… 23 to be made new in the attitude of your minds; …
 
Isaiah 6:6-7:
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar.
7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”
 
There is also a deeper meaning behind the number of the seraphim having three pairs of wings that make up the number ‘6’, which is associated with the creation of man because God created man on the sixth day (cf. Genesis 1:27.31).
 
Genesis 1:27.31:
27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. …
31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning – the sixth day.
 
The number of the pairs of wings ‘3’ as well as the number of the wings ‘6’ of the seraphim point to Jesus Christ, the Son of Man in His achieved victory over the enemy on the cross of Golgotha (Note: Jesus Christ rose from the dead on the third day; cf. Luke 9:22).
 
This also means, in terms of Isaiah’s vision, that Isaiah was in the center of Jesus Christ’s triumph, even though Jesus had not yet been crucified at that time. It is important to be aware that with God, the ‘I AM’, eternity (note: past, present and future) always includes the NOW.
 
Accordingly, in order to be able to stand in the fatherly-royal rulership of God, it is essential that we go into the living furnace of God, where the great roar of the Lion of Judah is located, who is also the Lamb of God. This sanctifies our spiritual being and activates the prophetic spirit within us, so that we begin to speak sanctified words of God which we receive from Him (cf. Amos 3:8 i.c.w. Psalm 12:6).
 
Amos 3:8:
8 The lion has roared – who will not fear? The Sovereign Lord has spoken – who can but prophesy?
 
Psalm 12:6:
6 And the words of the Lord are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold refined seven times.
 
Further, by dwelling in the living furnace of fire, we enter into an even more intense relationship with God the Father so that we continue our journey supernaturally as we dwell in His supernatural resurrection presence as the Alpha and the Omega. This is illustrated by the covering of the seraphim’s pairs of wings on their faces and in the covering of their feet, as well as their moving wings (cf. Isaiah 6:2 i.c.w. Revelation 1:8).
 
Isaiah 6:2:
2 Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying.
 
Revelation 1:8:
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
 
The Covering and the Throne Chariot of God
 
Being covered in this context means to be anointed or authorized by God to move in faith in the supernatural realm of the Spirit and to carry out the will of the Heavenly Father on earth without seeking glory for oneself (cf. John 6:38; John 7:18).
 
John 6:38:
38 For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.
 
John 7:18:
18 Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory, but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him.
 
It is the living furnace of fire that is composed of the seraphim, and it is the throne chariot of the LORD that is made up of the living creatures or Kerubim (cf. Ezekiel 1:19-22; Ezekiel 10:11-17 i.c.w. Psalm 18:10).
 
Ezekiel 1:19-22:
19 When the living creatures moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the living creatures rose from the ground, the wheels also rose.
20 Wherever the spirit would go, they would go, and the wheels would rise along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
21 When the creatures moved, they also moved; when the creatures stood still, they also stood still; and when the creatures rose from the ground, the wheels rose along with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.
22 Spread out above the heads of the living creatures was what looked something like a vault, sparkling like crystal, and awesome.
 
Ezekiel 10:11-17:
11 As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the cherubim faced; the wheels did not turn about as the cherubim went. The cherubim went in whatever direction the head faced, without turning as they went.
12 Their entire bodies, including their backs, their hands and their wings, were completely full of eyes, as were their four wheels.
13 I heard the wheels being called “the whirling wheels.”
14 Each of the cherubim had four faces: One face was that of a cherub, the second the face of a human being, the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.
15 Then the cherubim rose upward. These were the living creatures I had seen by the Kebar River.
16 When the cherubim moved, the wheels beside them moved; and when the cherubim spread their wings to rise from the ground, the wheels did not leave their side.
17 When the cherubim stood still, they also stood still; and when the cherubim rose, they rose with them, because the spirit of the living creatures was in them.
 
Psalm 18:10:
10 He mounted the cherubim and flew; he soared on the wings of the wind.
 
This living furnace of fire and the throne chariot of the LORD clearly shows that everything that exists with God in the spirit realm is alive and full of light, illustrated by the many wings and eyes in the spirit realm where the LORD moves (Ezekiel 1:18; Ezekiel 10:12; Revelation 4:6 i.c.w. Matthew 6:22; James 1:17; 1 John 1:5).
 
Ezekiel 1:18:
18 Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.
 
Ezekiel 10:12:
12 Their entire bodies, including their backs, their hands and their wings, were completely full of eyes, as were their four wheels.
 
Revelation 4:6:
6 Also in front of the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back.
 
Matthew 6:22:
22 “The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light.
 
James 1:17:
17 Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.
 
1 John 1:5:
5 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.
 
Thus we see that the willingness to be in the living fiery furnace of the LORD, which is related to holiness and purification, is a choice. The holiness to be pursued, as well as the renewing of our mind (note: spirit, soul, understanding) doesn’t happen to us without surrendering to Him with His supernatural identity, the essence of God.
 
The time has come to acknowledge God’s plan according to His Word in this season of new power and transformation, and to allow Him to change us more deeply in His governmental rule, in order to honorably exercise the authority entrusted as well as assigned to us in life.
 
Amen and Amen.

PROPHETIC CHAMBER
We are in a week of revelation. What follows is a great example from Penny Jackson for all of us on recording what the Lord is saying to you. Penny’s dialogue with the Lord includes timing, caution, encouragement and how He is protecting us in all of the changes we are going through. I encourage you to enter in as you read this word, and set aside time to record what the Lord is speaking to you as well.
 
'I have the perfect timing for the confusion and uproar in the nation and in the nations to break. It hasn’t gotten away from Me, and I am not thrown by any of it. I know that you know that, and yet the steady diet of lies makes you stumble a little bit at times. Is it any wonder that so many are deceived? It is important for Me to put things in place because there are many righteous ones who have fallen for the deception and believed the lie.

Can you even imagine how they will feel when the truth comes out? The shock? The hurt? The guilt? They won’t know what to do or where to turn. You must pray for them. It will hit them like a bolt of lightning. They will question Me and why I let this happen, not realizing that there were signs along the way, not realizing that people could speak such lies. They will be horrified by the depth of evil. The enemy will try to hide it, but there will be a revelation and they will be face-to-face with truth. Many will be devastated, many will feel tricked, and as so often happens, they will blame Me for their decisions and choices. There will be great anger: “Why did I let that happen to them?”

A Greater Grace and Measure of Forgiveness
 
I will need those who have understanding of Me and my actions to walk with great love and compassion during that season. The enemy will try to increase the questioning of Me and will try to put great doubt in many where I am concerned. I will need those who truly know Me and My ways to guide them through this. I need those with the understanding and big picture to be there waiting.

You will need to walk with extraordinary compassion because they will lash out in anger borne of shame and embarrassment and pride. For many, they won’t feel bad and will continue to track with the enemy even after he shows his true colors in all of this, but many will be rocked to their core by their deception and their foundations will shake. They will really begin to doubt themselves. Some will hold onto the deception because it’s easier than dealing with these doubts. You will be one of these that knows Me and will share My forgiveness and will let many know who I am and how I love them.

There must not be any shred of “I told you so” or pride that you did not fall for the lies. There can be none of that because it is by My grace that you were exposed to truth during this time. And no one has walked it out perfectly. My children will be heartbroken and feel like they have let Me down. There will be such sorrow. You will help with their restoration. You will remind them of My great love. It’s a time for the Body to unify in this, to unify in this healing process. It is a time for the Body to understand fully My love and acceptance, My grace and mercy. I am preparing My Body for this time. I have called forth greater intimacy with Me through the prophets and their words. I am calling you to know Me so well that you can represent Me accurately in this time. Be My heart on earth.
 
A Walk of Caution
 
The timing in what will happen next is elusive, but close … so close. There will be such an uproar, such upheaval, when it occurs. People will feel angry but will not know where to put their anger. People will lash out but won’t know who to lash out at. Rage will ensue as they learn of cures that could have saved their loved ones. The hardest will be for them to accept the fate of the children … all those children for years. It is even hard for you to go there, and you are already aware of it. People will be horrified. So much emotion will come up, and so many people are wounded and don’t know how to handle their emotions in a healthy way. Walk this out very carefully, not going anywhere unless you feel Me strongly pull that direction. Walk with great caution. Don’t make a move, any move, until I tell you to. To do so would be very dangerous because people will be out of control for a season. Then the sorrow will hit … such a sorrow that you can’t imagine.

You remember how you felt when you first learned about it. It was hard for you to sleep at night. And you were on the right side when you heard it. Think of those who have supported those corrupted ones, who have battled for them, who have built their lives on thinking they were doing the right thing.

Prepare with Prayer
 
The saddest to watch will be those who can’t go there – who can’t face the enormity of it all. They will choose to remain deceived. It takes courage to face something like this … a great deal of courage. Pray that your family will not be among those who will continue to be deceived. Pray that they will have the courage to face this and walk through it. Pray that they will hear truth, receive truth, and that they will allow their pride to go so that they can admit truth and walk through the aftermath. Pray for a heart of repentance for them. You can’t even imagine the horror of this. But it is a pulling off of the scab so that the wound can heal, so that the infection can be removed. It will come off quickly, and it will be ugly.

I have the way to do this in place. I have the timing for this. I am working with My people to get them ready. The churches will be in amazement; to find the wickedness within My churches will be so hard for people. Pray that they will turn toward Me instead of away from Me. Declare that the enemy will not get his foot in the door with those. He longs to draw them his way. Declare that will not happen and cry out on behalf of those.

Don’t expect people to come to you in repentance ... your family, your friends. They will be dealing with the aftermath of all of this. You don’t need that anyway. In time it may come. It may never come.

A People Made Ready
 
The timing on this is close. Make yourself ready. Stay as close to Me as you ever have because it will be so necessary. I have gotten My people used to upheaval as I have prepared for this; I have walked people through challenging times they have never experienced before. Finally, most have gotten the understanding that things will never be what they were.

Put aside every distraction. Put away anything that would keep you from hearing from Me, from hearing My voice. My plan is a strategic one, and there are strategies you must know to walk it out rightly.

I am your protection in this. I will keep you safe as the rage comes forth. I will keep you in a safe place, in My shelter until that storm passes. When the sorrow comes, that is when you will make your move ... not during the rage, but during the sorrow. Then you will reach out with My heart and My compassion. Then revival will begin.

A New Stand in the Midst of Complacency
 
There is coming a time when My Body will have to take a stand in a way they haven’t in the past. There is coming a time, but it is not to be a time of fear. Haven’t I always shown Myself at what appears to be the midnight hour? Haven’t I always shown Myself? I will again. But these things will need to happen for people to see My miracles and My signs and wonders. Who I am will be seen through the brightness of these wonders in the middle of much darkness. There will be great revival but at a cost – at the cost of great darkness. Many will need the darkness to turn them toward the Light. Many will stay complacent until things are so dark that they can no longer stay in complacency. Many have been the frogs in the pot. It will get so hot that even they can’t stand it anymore. You are seeing the beginning of that in these days, but it will increase in days ahead. Know that I can direct you clearly in times like this. Know that this must happen for people to turn to Me. It’s not my heart that this must happen. Some will be lost in this, but that is just on this side of heaven. They will not be lost to Me at all.

There will be a time when it seems that you (the Body) are losing. Turn your eyes on Me and stay fully focused on Me then. I am not a man that I should lie, and I will be victorious. Darkness will try to draw you down, and will try to draw My people away. Hide yourselves for a little while. Run under My wing. It is the only safe place. You are victorious in Me. You will be victorious in Me.

An Awakening Awaits
 
Not many are seeing the battle that will precede the great third awakening. Yes, the enemy is losing and there will be no doubt that I am victorious in this. But many are not seeing what will need to happen first -- that it will have to get so dark that people will turn toward Me in their despair. As one who has that understanding, as one that knows My light will shine brightest in great darkness, I will need you to be so close to Me. You will take chances that are scary, but you will know that they are from Me. This is not a time when you will struggle to hear My Voice. You will recognize My voice clearly and immediately. Others will hear My voice through you. That responsibility won’t be scary because you will be so sure of Me in it. You will be so clear that it’s Me. But stay so close to Me that nothing can wedge its way between us. Don’t judge others for where they are and what they are doing. I am an individual God who has unique things for each of My children. Just put your focus in Me and what I require of you. I will unify My Body, but it will be made of many unique parts. As you look up together toward Me, I will draw you closer together.

The Awakening will be glorious. It will be exciting and thrilling when it gets here. However, it’s going to mean giving everything to Me, sacrificing to a different level – time-wise and involvement-wise. My hand is now and will be always on you wherever I call you to go. You will not doubt Me or My presence for a moment. All that you have and all that you are you must lay before Me. I have prepared you for such a time as this.

Ready for Battle
 
It will truly be the best of times and the worst of times, but it will lead to the holiest of times. Things that have kept My people in place will fall away, and My truth will be left standing. The world won’t give up without a fight, but I have made My people ready … ready for battle.
 
Blessings,

PROPHETIC CHAMBER
As the Church – the ‘ekklēsia’ it does not fail to happen that we enter periods of time when we feel that the presence of Christ is not present. This feeling, however, is only an indication that the LORD has gone to a higher place of power with His presence because it is the will of the Heavenly Father that we stand in a greater dimension of His power, authority and governmental rule as saints (cf. Luke 22:69 i.c.w. Colossians 3:1).
 
Luke 22:69:
“… 69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.”
 
Colossians 3:1:
1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.
 
Furthermore, it is in the interest of the Father and the Son that we come to rest with our inner man in the realm of the spiritual dwelling place of the Father established by Christ Jesus and that we act out of this rest (cf. John 14:2-3 i.c.w. Hebrews 4:1.3a).
 
John 14:2-3:
2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
 
Hebrews 4:1.3a:
1 Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it. …
3a Now we who have believed enter that rest, …
 
This dwelling place involves being enfolded in the Fatherhood and Sonship of God in Christ Jesus in order to stand in the triune presence of God’s light expressed through the Father, the Son, and His people who have set out to stand in the presence of God (cf. John 17:20-21 i.c.w. Isaiah 60:1).
 
John 17:20-21:
20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. …”
 
Isaiah 60:1:
1 “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. …”
 
This light carries the revelatory truth of God’s Word expressed through His Fatherhood and Sonship and through the ‘ekklēsia’. Moreover, this light works victoriously in the church against the pulling forces of the adversary (cf. Psalm 119:105).
 
Psalm 119:105:
105 Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.
 
Ecclesiastes 4:12:
12 Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
 
The Entering into the Revelatory Truth and the Message of the Women
 
This going forth into the increase of God’s light can be compared to the decision of the women who, after the death of Christ, went to His tomb with the fragrant oils. They were in a certain kind of spiritual ‘emptiness’ because they ‘lost’ Jesus through the crucifixion and set out with their measure of ‘anointing’.
 
Even though they expected to find Jesus’ body in the tomb to anoint Him, they entered the realm of the truth of God’s Word for that time and were taught therein the truth about the resurrection in Christ by the wisdom and knowledge that is in Christ in the form of the two men who appeared to them (cf. Luke 24:1-8 i.c.w. Colossians 2:2-3).
 
Luke 24:1-8:
1 On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb.
2 They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3 but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.
4 While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them.
5 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?
6 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 7 ‘The Son of Man must be delivered over to the hands of sinners, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.’ ”
8 Then they remembered his words.
 
Colossians 2:2-3:
2 My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
 
These two angels and the women, who in this context can be called the ‘ekklēsia’ established the presence of the triune light of Isaiah 60:1. As a result, they communicated the Word of God in a new way and thus brought light into the darkness in the form of unbelief and doubt.
 
Hereby it was not left out that also the apostles had to step into a new level of faith through the proclamation of the good news of the women, in order to set out in faith into the revelatory truth (cf. John 17:20 i.c.w. Romans 10:17).
 
John 17:20:
20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, …”
 
Romans 10:17:
17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
 
The message of the women at first seemed like babble to the apostles, but ultimately they responded to the revelatory light of God’s Word that came to them through the women, so that Peter and John set out for the tomb to know the truth that brought them into greater freedom (cf. Luke 24:9-11 i.c.w. John 8:31-32).
 
Luke 24:9-11:
9 When they came back from the tomb, they told all these things to the Eleven and to all the others.
10 It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the others with them who told this to the apostles.
11 But they did not believe the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense.
 
John 8:31-32:
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples.
32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
 
After the women delivered the revelatory truth of Jesus’ victory over sin, death and the devil, the men also entered into the power of the revelatory truth represented by the disciples or apostles. This resulted in the increase of light or revelatory knowledge kindled by more of the disciples’ testimonies. This finally reached its climax when Jesus Christ Himself entered into their midst. His coming secured the already established revelatory truth with its associated experiences.
 
This clearly reveals that our spiritual desire for more of Christ must never end, because it is the spiritual impetus to seek the truth in Christ Jesus in the respective times in order to step onto a higher level of revelatory truth and to assist that people set out on their own to find the knowledge of truth that results in true liberty in Christ (cf. Matthew 7:7 i.c.w. John 8:31-32).
 
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. …”
 
John 8:31-32:
31 To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples.
32 Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
 
Amen and Amen.
 
In His Wisdom,
