PROPHETIC CHAMBER
In Song of Songs 8:6 we are told of the flame of the LORD (Note: JAHS) in connection with the strength of love.
 
Song of Songs 8:6:
6 Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame (Note: flame of JAH).
 
The strength of love in the form of the flame of JAH is accompanied by the zeal or passion of God, which are like a consuming fire (cf. Deuteronomy 4:24).
 
Deuteronomy 4:24:
24 For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
 
The power of love is compared with the strength of death, and the influence of passion in connection with the power of Sheol or the realm of the dead, which reveals a principle that life and death are close together. If we want to approach the LORD and follow Him, a sacrifice is required, which includes the laying down of our ‘ego’ (cf. Matthew 16:24-25 i.c.w. Galatians 2:20).
 
Matthew 16:24-25:
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.
25 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it.
 
Galatians 2:20:
20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
 
The Different Types of the Flame of the LORD
 
There exist different types of the flame of the LORD in relation to the presence of God, which is evident from the different ‘sources of fire’ in the tabernacle as well as in the temple.
 
The first source of fire is the altar of burnt offering, which stood in the open air in the outer court, where the life of an animal was sacrificed and was accompanied, among other things, by the confession of the sin of each Israelite who came to the priest.
 
The second source of fire is the burning menorah, which was located on the south side in the covered area of the Holy Place.
 
The third source of fire is the altar of incense, which was located in front of the Holy of Holies and on which a special mixture of incense was offered to God.
 
These three sources of fire just mentioned are equivalent to the following spiritual realms:
 
  1. realm of confession and forgiveness => realm of the Lamb
  2. realm of the Spirit of God => realm of the dove, or the Holy Spirit
  3. realm of praise and worship => realm of eternal kingship.

The second and third realms within the sanctuary encompass the statement of Jesus who spoke of the importance of worshiping the Father in spirit and in truth (cf. John 4:23-24).
 
John 4:23-24:
‘… 23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshippers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshippers the Father seeks.
24 God is spirit, and his worshippers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.’
 
It is the Holy Spirit in whom we cry, ‘Abba!’ and it is the Holy Spirit who leads us into all truth (cf. John 16:13-15 i.c.w. Romans 8:15).
 
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.’
 
Romans 8:15:
15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, ‘Abba, Father.’
 
Moreover, the outer court includes the Father’s pleasure of those who move forward in the sonship of Christ with a repentant heart (cf. Matthew 3:16-17).
 
Matthew 3:16-17:
16 As soon as Jesus was baptised, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him.
17 And a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.’
 
The area of the covered sanctuary carries, among other things, the significance of walking in the obedience of God and is linked to the presence of the Holy Spirit (Note: symbolized by the menorah), who also appears in the Word of God as a dove (cf. Matthew 17:5).
 
Matthew 17:5:
5 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!’
 
It is the guidance of the Holy Spirit that allows us to taste and see the face of the Father (cf. Psalm 34:8), just as the light of the menorah helped to shine forward to the table of shew bread with the twelve shew breads lying on it, also called the ‘bread of His presence’ (cf. Exodus 25:37 i.c.w. Exodus 26:35; Leviticus 24:5-9).
 
Psalm 34:8:
8 Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
 
Exodus 25:37:
37 ‘Then make its seven lamps and set them up on it so that they light the space in front of it. …’
 
Exodus 26:35:
35 Place the table outside the curtain on the north side of the tabernacle and put the lampstand opposite it on the south side.

Leviticus 24:5-9:
5 ‘Take the finest flour and bake twelve loaves of bread, using one-fifth of an ephah for each loaf.
6 Arrange them in two piles, six in each pile, on the table of pure gold before the Lord.
7 By each pile put some pure incense as a memorial portion to represent the bread and to be a food offering presented to the Lord.
8 This bread is to be set out before the Lord regularly, Sabbath after Sabbath, on behalf of the Israelites, as a lasting covenant.
9 It belongs to Aaron and his sons, who are to eat it in the sanctuary area, because it is a most holy part of their perpetual share of the food offerings presented to the Lord.’
 
The ‘East-West-Walk’ of the High Priest
 
All three areas were walked by the high priest from east to west, the course of which reveals the movement of the sun as well as the power of Jesus’ return (cf. Matthew 24:27).
 
Matthew 24:27:
27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
 
Speaking in a spiritual context, the high priest’s ‘east-west’ walk created what is called an arc of light in the presence of God, much as God is covered by an emerald rainbow in the throne room (cf. Revelation 4:2-3).
 
Revelation 4:2-3:
2 At once I was in the Spirit, and there before me was a throne in heaven with someone sitting on it.
3 And the one who sat there had the appearance of jasper and ruby. A rainbow that shone like an emerald encircled the throne.
 
This ‘arcing of light’ is associated with the promise of God as well as His eternal government.
 
If you consider the area of the Lamb which is represented by the outer court, with the area of the dove represented by the Holy Place in Hebrew and put the first two Hebrew letters of the word ‘lamb – śäh’ and ‘dove – jônāh’ together, you get the Hebrew word for ‘lamb – śäh’ according to Strong’s Concordance with the word key number: H7716.
 
Based on this, we can see that the presence of the Lamb is always present in a certain way, just as Jesus said that the Spirit of truth doesn’t speak from Himself; but speaks what He will hear and proclaims what is future. For He glorifies Jesus and takes from Him to proclaim it to us.
 
The Flame of the LORD and the Flashing Sharp Sword
 
Returning to the flame of the LORD of Song of Songs 8:6, this is translated in Hebrew as the word ‘šalhäbät’, which is derived from the Hebrew root word ‘lahab’ and carries a preceding sibilant. Furthermore, it means ‘a flaring up of fire, a flame’. (part excerpt from Strong’s Concordance with word key number: H7957 and from the Elberfelder Study Bible with word key number: 8226*)
 
The root word ‘lahab’ means ‘flame, flash, shining or sharp blade, point of a weapon or spear.’ (part excerpt from Strong's Concordance with word key number: H3851 and from the Elberfelder Study Bible with word key number: 3933)
 
This clearly shows that the flame of the LORD, which is accompanied by the power of His love, carries within it His communication, that is, His living, powerful and sharp word, which is sharper than any two-edged sword (cf. Hebrews 4:12).
 
Hebrews 4:12:
12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
 
The presence of the flame of the LORD is like the cherubic watchful presence that guards the entrance to the tree of life, granting access only to those who have a legal right because they have died to themselves in Christ Jesus and now live in Him (cf. Genesis 3:24).
 
Genesis 3:24:
24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing to and fro to guard the way to the tree of life.
 
God’s desire is that we abide in His flame and thus in the center of His spiritual communication, so that we may be like a torch of salvation (Heb. יְשׁוּעָה – ‘jěšû'āh’) moving forward in our God-given identity in Christ Jesus in order to destroy the enemy’s ‘harvest fields’ with the standard of God’s righteousness (cf. Judges 15:4-5).
 
Judges 15:4-5:
4 So he went out and caught three hundred foxes and tied them tail to tail in pairs. He then fastened a torch to every pair of tails, 5 lit the torches and let the foxes loose in the standing corn of the Philistines. He burned up the shocks and standing corn, together with the vineyards and olive groves.
 
Isaiah 62:1-2:
1 For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her vindication shines out like the dawn, her salvation (Heb. יְשׁוּעָה – ‘jěšû'āh’) like a blazing torch.
2 The nations will see your vindication, and all kings your glory; you will be called by a new name that the mouth of the Lord will bestow.
 
Let us be like the thorn bush in the wilderness at the time of Moses, which was encased in the ‘communication of God’ and showed Moses the way (cf. Exodus 3:2-4).
 
Exodus 3:2-4:
2 There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up.
3 So Moses thought, ‘I will go over and see this strange sight – why the bush does not burn up.’
4 When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, ‘Moses! Moses!’ And Moses said, ‘Here I am.’
 
Since Jesus, like the serpent had to be lifted up by Moses in the wilderness, there is a connection with the preceding hissing sound of the Hebrew word ‘šalhäbät’ for ‘flame of the LORD’ (cf. John 3:14-15).
 
John 3:14-15:
14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up (cf. Numbers 21:8-9), 15 that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him.’
 
Where the presence of the flame of the LORD appears, the communication of the Spirit begins, in a similar way as it happened at Shavuot/Pentecost in the upper room in Jerusalem among the approximately hundred and twenty saints (cf. Acts 2:1-4).
 
Acts 2:1-4:
1 When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.
2 Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting.
3 They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.
4 All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
 
And if there is a united fire source of the spirit and the enemy has hidden himself as a cunning observer in the respective place in order to bring down, he will be seized by the apostolic power of God. Even if this happens unconsciously, he will be thrown by it into the fire of love of the saints that they have for each other, so that he must flee in fear (cf. Acts 28:2-3, 5 i.c.w. 1 John 4:18a; James 4:7).
 
Acts 28:2-3.5:
2 The islanders showed us unusual kindness. They built a fire and welcomed us all because it was raining and cold.
3 Paul gathered a pile of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand. …
5 But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects.
 
1 John 4:18a-b:
18a-b There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, …
 
James 4:7:
7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
 
Amen and Amen.

PROPHESIED ON THE 30’st OF AUGUST 2022 | 03’rd OF ELUL 5782, NAJOTH BERLIN – SPANDAU
 
“There is the power of the morning hours that help you hear the LORD in a new way, because He is sensitizing your hearing to His voice! What you hear from Him allows you to step into a stronger resistance against darkness and its machinations (cf. Isaiah 50:4-5)!
 
You are in a phase in which what you see leads you to hear the voice of God with open ears, similar to what Jeremiah experienced when he saw the branch of the almond tree, says the spirit of the prophet (cf. Jeremiah 1:11-12)!
 
There is the supernatural event in the midst of time that is taking you to a point of enlightenment in order to taste the nature of God in a new way and to see His presence (cf. Psalm 34:8)!
 
This process of enlightenment is accompanied by the royal presence of the Word of God, which opens the realm of truthfulness and transparency in order to be clothed with the anointed garment of joy (cf. Hebrews 4:12-13 i.c.w. Isaiah 61:3)!
 
There is the righteous rebuke of the LORD to the adversary because of the royal presence of God!
 
Therefore, do not be intimidated when you are surrounded by accusation because the plan of God is already set for you to be clothed with the ornaments of honor and the garments of joy! Make sure you obey what the LORD will speak to you because in it is hidden the governmental reign for the future (cf. Zechariah 3:1-7)!
 
There is your commitment to leaders in the ‘house’ where you are and to whom you have faithfully committed yourself to serve in Christ Jesus! Your commitment results in experiencing Christ in the form of ‘the door’ and in a greater recognition of spiritual movements, as well as in your coming into contact in an accelerated way with people whom you don’t yet know (cf. Exodus 21:5-6 i.c.w. John 10:9)!”

Amen and Amen.

PROPHETIC CHAMBER
We are in a season now when it is wise to take divine stock as we are heading the end of the biblical year in the midst of God’s cycle of blessing and will enter the new cycle soon.
 
When a time cycle in God’s calendar comes to an end, there is a door in midst of the LORD’S upward spiral of time. Every time a time cycle draws to a close in God’s calendar – this door announces the new time cycle and can be likened to an exit and entrance, which is open and is about to be closed.
 
In this case it is an exit, which closes down the old time cycle, but at the same time it is also an entrance in Christ Jesus into a new field of God’s time (cf. John 10:9).
 
John 10:9:
9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture.
 
Jesus Christ, the Alpha and Omega

Jesus Christ is the Alpha and Omega, and as such He is the time span of our lives in the temporary, covering this time. He is also the door through which we enter into a new, providing, temporary time in midst of the cycle of eternity. This is why the ending as well as the beginning of a biblical year have a special meaning (cf. Revelation 22:13; Deuteronomy 30:20 i.c.w. John 10:9).

Revelation 22:13:
13 I (Note: Jesus Christ) am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

Deuteronomy 30:20 (NIV):
...20 and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life (Note: expansion of your life; Alpha and Omega), and he will give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

John 10:9:
9 I (Note: Jesus Christ) am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture.
 
God’s Love and the End of a Time for a New Beginning
 
Such windows in time always end with God’s love and care, according to His measure – this is revealed in the meaning of the name of the current biblical month, ‘Elul’, which carries the first Hebrew letters of the first part of the verses from Song of Songs 6:3. They are connected to the deep love relationship with Jesus Christ, our king and bridegroom.
 
Song of Songs 6:3a:
3a I am my beloveds and my beloved is mine; …
 
This biblical month of ‘Elul’ is the month that finishes the year of God’s blessing cycle in order to enter into a new time cycle of blessing. When we as God’s people finish a year in God’s calendar and enter into a new time in Christ Jesus, it is wise to take stock in our personal life.
 
This includes ‘reminiscing’ about the year and thus bringing it to a close according to our reflections on decisions, situations and our intimacy with the Holy Spirit. As a result we should align ourselves accordingly for the new year.
This alignment should take place in the deep certainty, that we belong to Jesus Christ and He belongs to us. Even if there are things that we need to change in the future.
 
In connection with this matter, let us take a deeper look at the scripture in John 4:46-54.
 
The Sign of the Healed Son of the Royal Official
 
There we can read about the visit of Jesus to Cana in Gallilee where He had before turned the water into wine during a wedding.
 
In this region He was met by a royal official whose son was terminally ill and who asked Jesus to heal his son.
 
Jesus healed the official’s son by telling him to go to his son because Jesus saw him alive. The official believed the words of Jesus, thus, on the way to his son, he heard the news about his healing through his servants.
 
It is clearly evident that the royal official had an understanding of the times and seasons, and therefore inquired about the time of his son’s healing (cf. John 4:46-54).
 
John 4:46-54:
46 Once more he visited Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. And there was a certain royal official whose son lay ill at Capernaum.
47 When this man heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and begged him to come and heal his son, who was close to death.
48 ‘Unless you people see signs and wonders,’ Jesus told him, ‘you will never believe.’
49 The royal official said, ‘Sir, come down before my child dies.’
50 ‘Go,’ Jesus replied, ‘your son will live.’ The man took Jesus at his word and departed.
51 While he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was living.
52 When he enquired as to the time when his son got better, they said to him, ‘Yesterday, at one in the afternoon, the fever left him.’
53 Then the father realised that this was the exact time at which Jesus had said to him, ‘Your son will live.’ So he and his whole household believed.
54 This was the second sign Jesus performed after coming from Judea to Galilee.
 
It is necessary that we build on the already established presence or glory of God in our lives, which has its seat in the covenant with God, as represented by the wedding where Jesus turned the water into wine (cf. John 2:1-12).
 
For us, it is beneficial to understand the geographical places as well as the times and seasons of God’s visitation and manifestation in order to celebrate His goodness in this moment in our present time and as well in the future.
 
In the story of John 4 we can see the interaction by faith of the present, past and future in order to celebrate the presence of God and His intervention before mankind.
 
It is written, that Jesus came from the region of Judea, which is an indication of the center of true worship, which is to worship the Father in spirit and in truth (cf. John 4:23-24).
 
John 4:23-24:
‘… 23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshippers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshippers the Father seeks.
24 God is spirit, and his worshippers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.’
Furthermore, Jesus didn’t go down to the son of the royal official, but acted sovereignly from the high realm of the Heavenly Father.
 
Operating from a Higher Spiritual Realm
 
=> That Jesus didn’t go down means that He operated from a higher spiritual realm.
Acting from above can be linked to a special moment in time, which is related to a new beginning.
 
God is calling us as His people to operate on a higher spiritual level than we have been.
 
Some of us have set our standards too low so that we only meet our own expectations but God wants us to set our standards higher according to His will. We should expect more for our lives and from our lives that God has given us.
 
The standard we set should be high in our expectations and in our vision in accordance with God.
 
We as humans nowadays live in a realm of thinking that wants to tell us that if we do things just a little bit better than other persons, it is enough, but honestly, such thinking doesn’t require much of our power, which means that one can potentially be the best in one’s field of duty by being a little bit more accurate.
 
However, that still doesn’t mean that it makes you a person who has a lot of influence on people.
Even having a degree doesn’t make us an influential person on its own.
 
It is not necessary for every person to study in order to have influence, which is evident, among other things, from the fact that even Jesus didn’t go to Bible college in order to get a ‘doctorate’.
 
It doesn’t have to mean that people who are more educated than you are smarter than you.
 
Jesus had an influence on the people around Him through the wisdom given to Him by His Heavenly Father (cf. John 7:15-18).
 
John 7:15-18:
15 The Jews there were amazed and asked, ‘How did this man get such learning without having been taught?’
16 Jesus answered, ‘My teaching is not my own. It comes from the one who sent me.
17 Anyone who chooses to do the will of God will find out whether my teaching comes from God or whether I speak on my own.
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. <= (The message put in ‘=>’ is based on a statement by Cindy Trimm.)
 
From this we can see that it is necessary for us to act from the realm of the spirit out of the relationship with the Heavenly Father and not be tempted to get drawn to a lower level of the soul.
 
In fact, this may result in us merely having sympathy, but not having compassion. Sympathy, or pity, doesn’t follow action that changes the circumstance. However, it is divine compassion, that follows action and brings about change.
 
Be encouraged to look for the time and even place when the truth was spoken to your destiny and brought freedom in order to celebrate God’s goodness in your now time.
 
Reflect on the Word of God as your king’s command and let go of everything that is contrary to God’s empowering revelation in your life. This is the time and season to finish strong as the best things are yet to come!
 
Amen and Amen.
 
In His Wisdom,
 
Daniel & Tina Glimm
