Year 2021, get ready to fight… a counterattack is coming

On September 20 of this year, the Lord led me to consider Jonah’s proclamation about Nineveh, particularly about the danger of destruction that was looming over the city, which although it was because of God’s just judgment because of the evil of its very inhabitants, it was an imminent danger because they did not know precisely about its existence.

As I was studying about Jonah’s proclamation, the Lord revealed to me another danger, this time about the danger of destruction that is looming over the United States of America because of all the actions of Peace that have been reached for the benefit of Israel, and for the confirmation of Jerusalem as the capital of the Kingdom, but above all, because the same American people have not understood God’s choice for them at this time. There is a plot from hell to reverse all these efforts, and to try, the Lord pointed out to me that the danger of attack would begin on November 3, that is, the day of the elections. For that date I published the writing: Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown…

So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days’ journey.  And Jonah began to enter into the city a day’s journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown. […]

There are forces of darkness pushing the circumstances and forcing situations to cause stagnation to the prophetic work of the Kingdom on earth, the attack consists not in preventing the fulfillment of prophetic events, but in establishing a ‘delay’ in the time of their fulfillment; the prophetic Word depends on the fulfillment of time to validate itself as God’s work.[1]  A delay in the execution according to the fulfillment of time invalidates the prophetic action, and gives Satan the authority to operate with ‘right’ over the regions and over its inhabitants, for a time equivalent to the time that would have lasted the realization of the prophetic Word; it is understandable now, why the prophets of God are strongly persecuted and attacked,[2] and others are seduced by fame and popularity.[3]

The year 2020 is a year of prudent and foolish virgins, it is the year where the difference of the spiritual condition of each one is established; and we begin to see this with the arrival of the pandemic and the closing of the temples because of the lockdown, many believers were confronted in their faith without being able to understand or explain if this came from God or was a product of the devil.

Donald Trump, called by the prophet Isaiah as ‘the man that executeth my counsel’,[4] acting on God’s instruction, has initiated a process of aligning the nations around Israel, and this, to fulfill the prophetic teaching found in the book of Exodus. Observe the Word that Jehovah-God commissions Moses to deliver to Pharaoh: And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the Lord, Israel is my son, even my firstborn.[5]  The word ‘firstborn’ means the first of many who will come after this one, otherwise it would say, my only son. Israel is seen by God as his firstborn son, which teaches us that ‘other’ nations will arise to unite with Israel, as son nations, and will rise as nations of Righteousness.[6] So the work is just beginning.

According to the text of Isaiah, the appearance of the man of my counsel is subordinate to the appearance of a supernatural sign. The text states that along with the convocation to the man that executes my counsel, Jehovah also calls the bird of prey.

How do we fight this spiritual battle? What should we do? The task that is commissioned to us is a task that is carried out with wisdom; any other strategy will simply not prosper.

The instruction that the Spirit of Truth gives us is, get out of every medium that spreads resistance to the Will of God, repudiate all its arguments and its advertising media.

 Depart ye, depart ye, go ye out from thence, touch no unclean thing; go ye out of the midst of her; be ye clean, that bear the vessels of the Lord.

Isaiah 52:11

My people, go ye out of the midst of her, and deliver ye every man his soul from the fierce anger of the Lord.

Jeremiah 51:45

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Revelation 18:4

No one who is contaminated with the spirit of rebellion will be able to fight against what the prophetic Word wants to stop; being contaminated does not necessarily mean being in sin, it means rather, tolerating what God hates and repudiates;[7] it means sympathizing with those who rise up in opposition to the Lord.[8]

My people, go ye out of the midst of her, it means to ‘break’ ties with those who manifestly oppose what God is doing, and/or that stand against those whom God has chosen to do His work.  This time of opposition to Donald Trump, identify those who have joined the plot to remove him, and break ties with them, abandon all your arguments and your advertising media, even if they are social pages. The time we are approaching demands integrity of faith, alliances with darkness blind us.

One more instruction, prepare yourself in the study of the Scriptures to deal with what God wants us to do in this time of darkness that has already begun.[9]  Let me explain, every time has its own emphasis, not every epoch follows the same instruction; this time of pandemic has shown us that God’s demand is not directed to ‘evangelize’ and/or to raise up churches, but many have not understood this, this time is to be kept, it is to be hidden, it is a time of preparation.[10]

The failure of the foolish virgins, according to the parable, was that they believed that all missions are carried out in the same way, they did not consider that there are missions that have their own characteristics, that have contingencies. The foolish virgins were foolish because they could not understand about the times; the times we are living in are prophetic times, they demand precision, they are not carried out according to ecclesiastically developed protocols, they are part of the strange operations[11] that God develops to manifest His Power and establish His Sovereignty over the face of the earth.

Above all, do not neglect your calling; remember that you are light and that God has made you dwell in a place not to enjoy it, but so that from there you may establish the Glory of the Most High through your faith. This time is for establishing faith, do not seek to ‘evangelize’, seek rather to establish faith, conversions will be made by the Spirit of Truth.

Imminent Judgment Warning

The inhabitants of the Caribbean islands are very accustomed to the bulletins of the relevant agencies that warn about abrupt changes in the climate. Every islander knows what a flash flood warning means, or a tropical storm warning, and so on.

The terms are handled very well and depending on their meaning, so the population has to make preparations.

One night of these, reflecting on these terms and how knowing them help us to establish safety protocols for handling emergencies, I thought at the moment that in matters of spiritual life must happen exactly the same, there must be a system of “warnings” to prepare the public about the coming judgments, only unfortunately no one can notice the meaning of the “warnings”.

How is it possible that humanity cannot understand God’s “warnings” of imminent judgment hovering over the regions!

Maybe it’s because these kinds of “warnings” have fallen under the heading of religious fanaticism, and just thinking about the idea makes people turn around and walk away uncomfortable because the subject has been addressed.

But if for a moment we think about it carefully we will realize that the matter must awaken us to properly verify what is happening around us. Things never happen by chance, there is too much mathematics in the development of events to see in them a simple “chance”.

We all know the story of Jonah, for example, who refused in the first instance to carry a “warning” to the inhabitants of Nineveh, a city that was not godly or interested in spiritual things; in fact, the reason why the city had fallen into perversity and God’s judgment hovered over it. And though they were not a godly city, they believed, and their action of repentance averted the evil announced.

We also have the case of the apostle Peter who the night when Jesus was betrayed received the “warning” that Satan had appointed him to “shake him” like wheat.  Contrary to the case of the inhabitants of Nineveh who attended the “warning,” Peter did not attend, and at the end of that night, tells the story, Peter “wept bitterly.

And we could keep quoting. These cases reveal to us that God does not rejoice to see suffering, nor to see anyone afflicted, who in advance discovers the imminence of the coming judgments. Why doesn’t He stop them? Someone will ask. He does it, it is the answer, He does it by warning. Not that He can avoid it, because God is not a servant of men, He warns it so that people understand that the only ones who can change the course of events is man himself.

In the Garden of Eden, Adam and Eve decided in the absence of God, and from there they relegated God with whom they had had a close relationship, to a position of announcer of the things that would happen to them, because of the decisions that each one makes, of course. God warned Adam and Eve that from then on the earth would be cursed, and that she would make them see how hard it is to live without God: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.[1]

God does not rejoice to see suffering, nor to see anyone in pain, but before misfortunes happen He takes it upon Himself to warn men to prepare themselves, and to be able to change things when it is still possible, but men do not understand. I found in the Holy Scriptures a text that shows the pain in God for the ignorance that exists in people,

Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. Isaiah 5:13

The prophet Hosea also wrote in the same terms,

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6

The earth is responsible for executing the judgments of God because of the decisions of men, for running rampant toward evil and for practicing satanic practices seeking fame, wealth and power. An earthquake, a cyclone, a drought, a famine, a plague, a barren land, dates repeated in different years for national misfortunes to happen, etc., are “warnings” of an action that must be corrected by the inhabitants of the regions where the events occur. Moses stated that the earth has the capacity to be a witness before men of God’s good intention to bless and guide men, and of their wickedness when they do not want to listen to God.

I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed. Deuteronomy 4:26

God does not rejoice in human pain, but warns, only that men do not understand God’s warnings. The apostle Peter writes about God’s love, and stated that God does not want anyone to perish,

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2nd. Peter 3:9

We are under a warning of imminent judgment, how do you know? Because God warned by a tremor, by a drought, by a famine, do we understand? What is the safety protocol that proceeds? Repentance, and seek of God.

(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation) 2nd. Corinthians 6:2

[1] Genesis 3:17b

Haiti and Chile, Signs of God to the world?

 

Recently while teaching the Introduction to the New Testament course and discussing how the apostle John presents in his gospel the works of Jesus in exactly seven miracles, which the apostle calls signs, the Lord led me to compare the purpose of the seventh sign – the resurrection of Lazarus from the dead – with the purpose for our time of two recent events that caught everyone’s attention in 2010. I am referring to the earthquake in Haiti, on January 12, and the confinement and eventual rescue of the 33 miners in the San José mine, in Chile, on October 13 of that same year.

Although the apostle acknowledges that the deeds of Jesus were so many that “if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written“,[1] he only highlights seven miracles-signs of them.

The apostle presents these seven signs as if they were seven great lessons, as in Genesis the seven days of Creation are presented, and he highlights from each of them how God establishes with signs His methodology of operation in the midst of the times. The signs are not chosen at random, they were duly selected as part of a school of teaching of which His gospel is the textbook.

The story itself discovers the teachings and purposes of each sign. In chapter one, in the presentation of the person of Jesus, it reads: “and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,”[2]

In chapter 2, when he begins to relate the work of Jesus’ ministry, John notes: “This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory.”[3] Then, again, in chapter 4, when it refers to the healing of the son of the nobleman, the second miracle described again highlights the order of the signs: “This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.”[4]

The whole book of John has this emphasis of emphasizing that although He does not seek His own Glory, the signs establish His Glory as sent from the Father.

  1. John 5.41 I receive not honour from men.
  2. John 5.44 How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
  3. John 7.18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
  4. John 8.50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
  5. John 8.54 Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:
  6. John 9.24 Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.
  7. John 11.4 When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.
  8. John 11.40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?
  9. John 12.41 These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
  10. John 12.43 For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.
  11. John 17.5 And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
  12. John 17.22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:
  13. John 17.24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

Therefore, and concluding on the value of signs in John’s gospel, Jesus’ miracles lead the reader to discover unwritten protocols of spiritual execution. Miracles are signs; they are forms of the revelation of the spiritual processes of the Kingdom on earth, indispensable forms of interpretation to understand the work of God in the midst of the times.

The seventh sign of John’s Gospel is aimed at discovering who God’s chosen ones are, and how they should understand the Kingdom through what happens around them. The teaching is aimed at the reader to understand that everything is a sign from God, everything is a lesson. Of course, in order to understand it, God’s chosen must remove everything that belongs to their personal interests because a personal interpretation of the situation they face is a counterweight, and stands in the way of the interpretation and implementation of the Word. The Chosen cannot highlight the adversity of their experiences and classify them as “misfortune”. The expression, “Didn’t I tell you that if you want to believe, you will see the glory of God?” shows us that even adverse things establish the Glory of God.

In all that God does on the face of the world, there is a mystery revealed to mark, measure and execute the agenda of His times. God marks the times of execution of His plans through signs.

So, when God led me to compare this seventh sign with the events of the earthquake in Haiti and the captivity of the miners in the San José mine in Chile, He is showing me that there is an urgency in the Kingdom to prophetically awaken a believing people who have not realized the value of having been called chosen lineage.[5]

The earthquake in Haiti and the captivity of the miners have several particular and common characteristics, which by the Spirit of the prophecy that blows in all our regions establish signs of interpretation for us. Two characteristics stand out from these two events that constitute them as a sign to the whole world.

Both disasters captured the world’s attention.

The presence in the country of so many world-renowned personalities was extraordinary and far beyond what an earthquake has meant for other regions.

In the case of Haiti, former U.S. presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Busch visited the country and set up a community aid fund. Film artists, world-renowned personalities moved and visited the island, and some stayed for a long time. All these visits moved the world’s attention to Haiti.

The presence of so many world personalities that Haiti received does not compare to the magnitude of the earthquake, other regions were impacted by earthquakes of equal or greater magnitude and never received such number of world visits. There is only one explanation to all this world attention about Haiti: It is God’s spiritual act of presenting to the whole of humanity a signal to warn of His executions on earth.

The same thing happened with Chile, the event was followed by several television networks, and the press coverage was worldwide. It is estimated that 1300 million people saw the live transmission of the rescue of the miners. TV personalities, such as the case of the animator and presenter Don Francisco, who transmitted from the San José mine.  The mentions of the president of the United States, Barack Obama, in a communiqué distributed by the White House by sending them a greeting the day before their rescue; the mentions of the pope in turn Benedict XVI, on September 2nd; and those of the Dominican singer Juan Luis Guerra on September 3rd, who in his Twitter account invited to pray for the 33 miners.

And so, in the same way were joined Spanish football teams and players such as David Villa; writers of the caliber of Isabel Allende, who with her participation turned the world’s attention to the 33 miners rescued. To date, two films have been filmed about the rescue of the miners.

All this interest obeys, once again, to a spiritual and prophetic operation of God to mark the whole world a sign of the times so that all may know how to place themselves before Him. It is the Glory of the Almighty that is settling on the earth as prophesied by the prophet Habakkuk: “The earth shall be full of knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.[6]

Both the epicenter of the Haiti earthquake and the San Jose mine are located on the same geographic longitude.

The coordinates of the epicenter of the earthquake in Haiti are: 18° 27′ 05” N / 72° 26′ 42.00″ W. The coordinates of the San Jose mine are: 27° 09′ 37” S / 70° 29′ 48.4″ W. Two degrees of longitude difference that was reduced to zero with the earthquake in Chile on February 27 of the same year.

NASA recently certified that the earth’s axis was moved due to the earthquake in Chile on February 27, causing the difference in coordinates to be nullified and both sites to be located at the same longitude.

Chilean Quake May Have Shortened Earth Days

The Feb. 27 magnitude 8.8 earthquake in Chile may have shortened the length of each Earth day.

JPL research scientist Richard Gross computed how Earth’s rotation should have changed as a result of the Feb. 27 quake. Using a complex model, he and fellow scientists came up with a preliminary calculation that the quake should have shortened the length of an Earth day by about 1.26 microseconds (a microsecond is one millionth of a second).

Perhaps more impressive is how much the quake shifted Earth’s axis. Gross calculates the quake should have moved Earth’s figure axis (the axis about which Earth’s mass is balanced) by 2.7 milliarcseconds (about 8 centimeters, or 3 inches). Earth’s figure axis is not the same as its north-south axis; they are offset by about 10 meters (about 33 feet).

By comparison, Gross said the same model estimated the 2004 magnitude 9.1 Sumatran earthquake should have shortened the length of day by 6.8 microseconds and shifted Earth’s axis by 2.32 milliarcseconds (about 7 centimeters, or 2.76 inches).

Gross said that even though the Chilean earthquake is much smaller than the Sumatran quake, it is predicted to have changed the position of the figure axis by a bit more for two reasons. First, unlike the 2004 Sumatran earthquake, which was located near the equator, the 2010 Chilean earthquake was located in Earth’s mid-latitudes, which makes it more effective in shifting Earth’s figure axis. Second, the fault responsible for the 2010 Chilean earthquake dips into Earth at a slightly steeper angle than does the fault responsible for the 2004 Sumatran earthquake. This makes the Chile fault more effective in moving Earth’s mass vertically and hence more effective in shifting Earth’s figure axis.

Gross said the Chile predictions will likely change as data on the quake are further refined. (Buis, 2010)

Is this a coincidence?  No, it’s not, it’s a sign for our days, just like the signs presented in John’s gospel, which speak mostly to the chosen about the work of the Kingdom on earth.

God is telling us something for our days. The problem is that we can’t see it. I quote two texts that explain why we cannot see it.

Mathew 16:1-3         The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven. 2He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red. 3And in the morning, It will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?

John 8:43       Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.

In both texts we are required to understand that there are signs of the times, which are the language of God to warn us, to reveal to us some mystery of the Kingdom on earth.

Both events, the earthquake in Haiti and the rescue of the 33 miners in Chile are marking, mainly, the times of the Kingdom, and suggest us how to measure them.

Haiti was the first Latin American nation to become independent (second in America) on January 1st 1804. The earthquake occurred in the same month of its independence, and for Haiti, its independence did not mean political independence, as it was for other Latin American nations, but rather liberation from slavery. In fact, there are records that the way they did it was not by arms, but by using witchcraft, voodoo, as a tool.

Chile, on the other hand, is the last American land to be discovered, Chile was discovered by Diego de Almagro on March 21st, 1536, and he did so by entering the Andes through the Paipote ravine, in the middle of the Copiapó Valley, which he named the Valley of Possession, the same land where the San José mine is located.

The captivity of the miners and their rescue also speaks to us of liberation, but in this case, liberation from death, the miners were literally liberated from certain death, their rescue has been considered a feat, and was like extraditing them from hell itself.

Two countries -Haiti and Chile- two communities with the same common characteristic of poverty, which encloses the entire non-Anglo-Saxon America that was the object of exploitation, slavery, and prostitution, where today their daily work is more a birth of suffering than a way of earning a living.

Why are Haiti and Chile God’s signs to the world?

Because the events that took place in both countries in 2010 are reminding us – and marking in the history of the world – God’s intention to erase every debt and every misfortune into which man and woman would have fallen, for whatever reasons, and could start all over again recovering everything they had lost.

When we read the text of Leviticus 25 describing the Constitution of the Kingdom that God constituted on the face of the earth through Moses, we discover that He promulgated a statute for the redemption of all those who had fallen into poverty or slavery and who had therefore lost their properties: you will proclaim liberty on earth to all its inhabitants.[7]

The promulgation of freedom was to be fulfilled every 7 years, and those who could not be redeemed on those dates because they had not paid their debts, the promulgation demanded total liberation in the eighth cycle of 7 years, whether or not they had the resources to pay off their debts. This date constituted the year of liberation and forgiveness of debts. These celebrations are known as the feasts of the years shemitah (every 7 years), and the feast of the year Yovel (jubilee), in the year 50. The promulgation was so that there would be neither poor nor slave on the earth because He had taken them out of the slavery of Egypt.

What the Liberty Bell meant for the thirteen original colonies of the United States, which contains engraved on its edge the same words of freedom proclamation of Leviticus, is what the proclamation of freedom meant for the dwellers of the earth, to the sound of shofars, on the Day of Atonement: the liberation of all debt and the recovery of their properties.

That is what happened in 2010, particularly with the liberation of the 33 miners. On that day 33 miners were proclaimed free, trapped for 70 days, and returned to their homes and families, as God stipulated in Leviticus 25.
If we examine the liberation of the 33 miners and the rejoicing that it meant for the entire world, and compare it with the promulgation of freedom referred to in Leviticus 25, proclaimed just on the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur), we have to understand that that day, October 13th, 2010, coincided with the Day of Atonement of God’s calendar, a calendar lost after the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans. This is the value of the miners’ rescue.

If we calculate the number of days between January 12th, the date of the earthquake in Haiti, and October 13th, the date of the release of the miners from Chile, we will see that the number of days is exactly the same as the number of days of gestation of a baby: 274 days (9 months).

In other words, what was conceived on January 12th was given birth on October 13th. On October 13th, 2010, God proclaimed independence and freedom over the whole earth, by virtue of the blessing that God gave to Abraham.[8]

The earthquake in Haiti and the case of the rescue of the miners in Chile bring to world attention the need to revitalize the saving message of the Gospel of the Kingdom. From Haiti to Chile a message of liberation is being traced that is necessary to proclaim for all Latin American land, liberation from slavery and death.

So, from Haiti to Chile, a message of healing of the earth is being traced. We need to understand that it is necessary to lift the curse of this earth. It is not a new message, it is the message of the Gospel that Jesus established, the same of which the prophet Isaiah wrote, and said: The spirit of the Lord Jehovah is upon me, because the Lord anointed me; I have been sent to preach good news to the meek, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and to the prisoners the opening of the prison.[9]

Haiti and Chile are signs of God to the world because it is ordering the times, it is discovering to the wise the right times, God’s times for which we must act. The times that were marked for the children of Israel when they left Egypt, when God Himself took care of them by giving them supernatural provision through manna so that they would have time to seek His presence.

October 13th, 2010 is according to the divine calendar the Day of Atonement -Yom kippur- the 10th day of the seventh month. If we consult a Hebrew calendar of that year we will notice that it does not coincide with the Day of Atonement, and it is because the modern Hebrew calendars that follow the count of times were disrupted and paganized after the destruction of Jerusalem by the Roman Empires, because in their calculations they still use the same pagan Sabbath as their seventh day. Their calculations are not correct.

On October 13th, 2010, due to the characteristic of the rescue event of the 33 miners trapped for 70 days, the date acquires a unique spiritual value. Note that the number of miners is exactly the age of Jesus when he gives up his life on the cross of Calvary, and the 70 days of captivity is similar to the 70 years of exile the Jewish nation spent in Assyrian lands.

What does this data tell us? These similarities are leading us to understand that October 13th, 2010 corresponded to the 10th day of the seventh month in the biblical calendar, the Day of Atonement, but celebrated in a year of Jubilee, a day in which the remission of debts was proclaimed on earth and where all returned to their inheritances. Let’s see it in the next verse:

10And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family. 11A jubile shall that fiftieth year be unto you: ye shall not sow, neither reap that which groweth of itself in it, nor gather the grapes in it of thy vine undressed. 12For it is the jubile; it shall be holy unto you: ye shall eat the increase thereof out of the field. 13In the year of this jubile ye shall return every man unto his possession. Leviticus 25:9-13

The promulgation of this law took place precisely on a Day of Atonement, as we read in the following text:

Then shalt thou cause the trumpet of the jubile to sound on the tenth day of the seventh month, in the day of atonement shall ye make the trumpet sound throughout all your land. Leviticus 25:9

That means that the year 2010, starting in spring, in April and not March, was a Yovel year, and God is marking it so that we know about the end times and how to move in them.

Why did God choose these two nations to mark a sign of the Kingdom on earth? Because they represent all of Latin America, they are the first and the last, identical to what we read in Revelation, the alpha and the omega, that is, everything, no nation is excluded. They are the last of the earth from which Jesus commanded his disciples to reach with the Gospel message.

Haiti and Chile are signs of God to the world because their geographical coordinates and the distance between the two points are marking a YARDSTICK OF TIME MEASUREMENT.  If we draw a line between the two positions on a map you will notice that a rod is formed.

Using the coordinates of both points we can find the distance between both positions. The Haversine formula is used to perform the calculation. The distance between the two coordinates is approximately 5,076.14 KM (3,154.36 Miles). If we consider that the system used in Latin America is MKS, we use the measure kilometers and we take them as kilometer-days. It turns out that we have 5076.14 days, and when we do the proper conversion we get the date of September 5th, 2024.

This is a measuring rod of time that starts counting from the 13th of October 2010, the date of the liberation of the miners.

According to everything described above, if the year 2010 was a shemitah year, the year 2024 is also a shemitah year, and if the calculations point to that year, other significant events in the style of Haiti and Chile will have for that year, only this time, for Israel, in view of the Scripture that says: to make in Himself the two in a new man.[10] If the Gentiles and Israel are one, and what has already happened concerning the Gentiles in 2010, the next thing, in 2024 is for Israel.

Process of Formation in God of a Prophet

Prophetic lessons for a world that refuses to submit to the Will of the Lord.

What? Are there prophets in our times? For those who were reached by a religious gospel emerged from the Reformed movements, talking about the possibility of prophets in our time is almost absurd and ridiculous.

A prophet is not a symbol of an era, of a region, or of a religion. The prophets have always existed, at all times, and in all places.

And whether they listen or fail to listen—for they are a rebellious people—they will know that a prophet has been among them. Ezekiel 2:5

A prophet is a man, or a woman, chosen by the Almighty God to establish in their time, and in their region, an operation for the establishment of the Kingdom. A prophet is a person raised by God to establish the Truth of the mystery of the Gospel.

It is not about preaching, or teaching, because in many cases, the participation of a prophet does not consist in the message he bring up, but in the spiritual executions that he establishes.

The prophet is the result of a divine convocation on the person, and it is concretized when he accepts the call, in submission to the Lordship of the Lord,

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? Who will go for us?” and I said “Here I am, send me!” Isaiah 6:8

It is a spiritual convocation, of course, a call that is revealed to the spirit of the chosen person. Nobody else can understand the election, only the designated person; that is the reason a prophet it is formed thru the experience lived daily. We recognize the importance of the centers for ministerial trainings, but the foundation of the prophet formation it is based on the daily revelation that God deposit directly to his spirit.

When I came, why was there no one? When I called, why was there no one to answer? Was my arm too short to deliver you? Do I lack the strength to rescue you? By a mere rebuke I dry up the sea, I turn rivers into a desert; their fish rot for lack of water and die of thirst. 3I clothe the heavens with darkness and make sackcloth its covering.” 4The Sovereign Lord has given me a well-instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed. 5The Sovereign Lord has opened my ears; I have not been rebellious, I have not turned away. Isaiah 50:2-5

Each prophet is formed directly by the Lord. He has a particular process to which each candidate is subjected, with the purpose that he learns, not to speak, but to behave according to the Truth to which he is called to establish.

When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; walk before me faithfully and be blameless. Genesis 17:1

There are three basic areas of formation of a prophet.

  • The prophet is subjected to processes of character formation until he develops the ability for discernment.

Discernment is learned, nobody is born knowing how to discern. Discernment is the virtue of distinguishing between two or more situations and selecting the best option according to the Truth of God for the moment in which we live. The best example to illustrate this is the decision the apostle Paul makes regarding his concern about whether the time has come to depart and be with Christ.

I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death. 21For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. 22If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! 23I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; 24but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body. 25Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith, Philippians 1:20-25

The ability to discern is the spiritual basis of a prophet. The prophet is not a title, it is obedience to the Lord to establish and give testimony of His will.

The prophets prophesy lies, the priests rule by their own authority, and my people love it this way. But what will you do in the end? Jeremiah 5:31

The prophet needs to discern the voice of the Lord, and when he has done so, discern the time and space established to act. It is not only about hearing, because by his spiritual sensitivity, the prophet can be deceived by darkness forces,

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 1st. John 4:1

The formation of discernment in a prophet is based on the ability to confront and resist, maintaining the conviction in Jesus that the trial, anguish, pain, suffering, adds a weight of glory to the renewal of the spirit. This is the part of character formation where many reject, and flee.

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2nd. Corinthians 4:17

Why is it a requirement to confront and be under trials, anguish, grief, pain, suffering, to be formed in discernment?

He will be eating curds and honey when he knows enough to reject the wrong and choose the right, Isaiah 7:15

The prophet is subject to processes of confrontation so that he loses his natural ability to decide for knowledge or for experiences. It is imperative that the prophet choose and decide, not for convenience but for a purpose.

The processes of confrontation and submission to the trials, to anguish, to sorrow, to pain, to suffering, enable the person to ear not according to his egocentric desire, but because of the revelation of God inside him.

Strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. “We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said. Acts 14:22

In the parable of the sower, it is emphasized that the inability to tolerate suffering and to flee from it, causes the Word to be spoiled. Of the four seeds planted in that field, three were superficial; and this, for the processes of suffering that could not be assimilated.

The superficial seed is the one that,

  1. The one who hears the word of the kingdom without understanding it,
  2. The one who hears the word and receives it at once with joy. But he has no root and lasts only for a time. When some tribulation or persecution comes because of the word, he immediately falls away.
  3. The one who hears the word, but then worldly anxiety and the lure of riches choke the word and it bears no fruit.

Being able to confront adverse situations and remain in faith produces spiritual fruits, not only discernment.

Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; Romans 5:3

These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 1st. Peter 1:7

Let us see the spiritual value and the need for discernment, and all the areas to which it is directed.

  • As for good and evil: the need to establish good over evil.

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. Romans 12:21

  • As for the holy and the profane, and the clean and the unclean: we must establish the same selection as if we were priests and the environment in which we move is the Temple.

So that you can distinguish between the holy and the common, between the unclean and the clean, Leviticus 10:10

You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between living creatures that may be eaten and those that may not be eaten.’” Leviticus 11:47

To determine when something is clean or unclean. These are the regulations for defiling skin diseases and defiling molds. Leviticus 14:57

  • As for what is lawful and what is not convenient: we must seek what edifies and not subject ourselves to power outside of Jesus.

“I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but I will not be mastered by anything. 1st. Corinthians 6:12

“I have the right to do anything,” you say—but not everything is beneficial. “I have the right to do anything”—but not everything is constructive. 1st. Corinthians 10:23

  • As for life and death: we must seek life and flee from death.

See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. 16For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess. 17But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them, 18I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess. 19This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live. Deuteronomy 30:15-19

  • As for mercy and judgment: mercy triumphs over judgment, we must make judgment and love mercy because that is what He wants.

Because judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment. James 2:13

But let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,”declares the Lord. Jeremiah 9:24

He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8

  • As for Law and Grace: the perfect Law is that of freedom, so that by Grace we may live by faith.

Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror 24and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do. James 1:23-25

Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who have the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all. Romans 4:16

  • As for the priority: our priority should be to seek first the Kingdom of God and his justice.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33

  • The prophet is formed in the ability to renounce, to hand over, to get rid of everything, for the sake of Jesus Christ.

The prophet is formed by God to learn to live in direct dependence on Him.

Understanding this principle is very simple, how can someone say that it depends on God if he has what he needs to live?

When the person gets rid of everything, and is left without recourse to live, and does not reproach, it is when he is ready to depend on God.

In the Bible we have three cases that establish the value of learning not to depend on things, and living as if you had lost everything.

The first case: The call of Elisha.

So Elijah went from there and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen, and he himself was driving the twelfth pair. Elijah went up to him and threw his cloak around him. 20Elisha then left his oxen and ran after Elijah. “Let me kiss my father and mother goodbye,” he said, “and then I will come with you.” “Go back,” Elijah replied. “What have I done to you?” 21So Elisha left him and went back. He took his yoke of oxen and slaughtered them. He burned the plowing equipment to cook the meat and gave it to the people, and they ate. Then he set out to follow Elijah and became his servant. 1 Kings 19:19-21

Material things are anchors, ballast, they prevent us from paying attention to the voice of God. Holding something becomes a temptation, it is a resource for when we see ourselves in need and scarcity.

The second case: The call of Apostle Paul.

But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ 9and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith. Philippians 3:7-9

The time of greatest revelation for the apostle began from when he gave up all the things that for him had a degree of reputation. In the next chapter of his epistle, he highlights how his formation process was:

I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. Philippians 4:11,12

The third case: The case of the rich young man:

“All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?” 21Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.” Matthew 19:20,21

Faith is not a human product, it is a spiritual virtue. God himself submits us to situations designed by Him to produce in us the revelation of His Essence, and for us to believe in Him. It is not the logical, rational belief, product of the acquired knowledge, it is the revelation of His Power, of His Sovereignty, of His Lordship; in that revelation the necessary Faith is activated to move us in His Grace.

He led you through the vast and dreadful wilderness, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock. 16He gave you manna to eat in the wilderness, something your ancestors had never known, to humble and test you so that in the end it might go well with you. Deuteronomy 8:15,16

The proclamation of the contemporary Gospel highlights the result: so that in the end it might go well with you, but does not highlight the way God uses to achieve it.

  • The prophet is formed, and perfectioned, in the ability to be incommunicado.

Instead, the king commanded Jerahmeel, a son of the king, Seraiah son of Azriel and Shelemiah son of Abdeel to arrest Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet. But the Lord had hidden them. Jeremiah 36:26

This is the hardest, most painful part. It is real, a total isolation. In many cases being incommunicado is equivalent to being despised, to being disowned, to being ignored.

The prophet is formed in his emotional area, and the Lord works in this way. It is like the clay in the potter’s hands, literal.

While Jezebel was killing off the Lord’s prophets, Obadiah had taken a hundred prophets and hidden them in two caves, fifty in each, and had supplied them with food and water.) 1 Kings 18:4

How would you react if time passes and nobody looks for you, or nobody calls you, and if someone finds you by chance, ignores you? That is the process of forming the ability to be isolated or incommunicado. If you do not react, if it does not bother you, people act that way with you, then you’re ready.

“Leave here, turn eastward and hide in the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan. 4You will drink from the brook, and I have directed the ravens to supply you with food there.” 5So he did what the Lord had told him. He went to the Kerith Ravine, east of the Jordan, and stayed there. I Kings I Reyes 17:3-5

Elijah was completely alone, incommunicado. God hid it.

As surely as the Lord your God lives, there is not a nation or kingdom where my master has not sent someone to look for you. And whenever a nation or kingdom claimed you were not there, he made them swear they could not find you. 1 Kings 18:10

There is a case that is necessary to present here, the case of David. David is a prophet,

“Fellow Israelites, I can tell you confidently that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is here to this day. 30But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne. Acts 2:29,30

As such, as a prophet, David was formed in the midst of the critical situations that God allowed over him. As soon as David entered the prophet’s formation, the Lord left him alone, incommunicado.

The first thing that God took away from him was his friend and brother, Jonathan,

Then David fled from Naioth at Ramah and went to Jonathan and asked, “What have I done? What is my crime? How have I wronged your father, that he is trying to kill me?” … 41After the boy had gone, David got up from the south side of the stone and bowed down before Jonathan three times, with his face to the ground. Then they kissed each other and wept together—but David wept the most. 42Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, for we have sworn friendship with each other in the name of the Lord, saying, ‘The Lord is witness between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants forever.’” Then David left, and Jonathan went back to the town. 1 Samuel 20:1-42

David seeks refuge with the priests, in Nob. Also, this resource is removed,

The king then ordered Doeg, “You turn and strike down the priests.” So Doeg the Edomite turned and struck them down. That day he killed eighty-five men who wore the linen ephod. 19He also put to the sword Nob, the town of the priests, with its men and women, its children and infants, and its cattle, donkeys and sheep. I Samuel 22:18,19

He takes refuge in Achis, among the Philistines, and they denigrate him,

That day David fled from Saul and went to Achish king of Gath. 11 But the servants of Achish said to him, “Isn’t this David, the king of the land? Isn’t he the one they sing about in their dances: “‘Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands’?” 12David took these words to heart and was very much afraid of Achish king of Gath. 13So he pretended to be insane in their presence; and while he was in their hands he acted like a madman, making marks on the doors of the gate and letting saliva run down his beard. 14Achish said to his servants, “Look at the man! He is insane! Why bring him to me? 15Am I so short of madmen that you have to bring this fellow here to carry on like this in front of me? Must this man come into my house?” I Samuel 21:10-15

He takes refuge in the cave of Adullam, and the Lord sends him a prophet to leave the cave,

David left Gath and escaped to the cave of Adullam. When his brothers and his father’s household heard about it, they went down to him there. … 5 But the prophet Gad said to David, “Do not stay in the stronghold. Go into the land of Judah.” So David left and went to the forest of Hereth. I Samuel 22:1-5

The training process had begun. Saul reigned forty years, most of those years David was persecuted. David was not a refugee, he was a prophet in formation.

In what training process are we?

The doctrine of Christ: Jesus is God.

This aspect of the doctrine of Christ is most attacked by the heretical doctrines. As a general rule, every apostate doctrine establishes as its basic disclosure that Jesus is not God. They recognize a prophetic aspect, and even a heavenly aspect, but deny its divine nature and essence. The reason is obvious; all heretical doctrine operates under the demonic intention.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. John 1:1, 12:

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: Philippians 2:5, 6

Jesus is God. Let’s see the testimony of Jesus himself,

I and my Father are one. … 36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?  … 38But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.            John 10:30-38

Therefore, only those who recognize, accept and submit to the doctrine of Christ are the only ones, who can overcome the world and are not subject to Satan,

Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? … 20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.  1st. John 5:5

The name of Jesus is written, and described, throughout the Old Testament.

In the scriptures of the Mosaic Law, the name of Jesus is presented in coded form. We see it in the revelation that Moses receives from God around his name.

And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. Exodus 3:15

God reveals Himself to Moses as, I am that I am (אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה),[1] and as, The LORD (יְהוָה).[2]

The name of the Messiah appears in the conjugation of both names. If we join both names, we have: Jehovah, I am that I am.

In that union of names appears the name of Jesus in codified form, let’s see it. Observe, the names of Joshua and Jesus are written as follows:

יְהוֹשֻׁעַ        Joshua

ישוע          Jesus

Let us return again to the image of the union of the names, with which the Lord reveals himself to Moses,

אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה יְהוָה  Jehovah I am that I am

The name of Jesus is integrated into the words of the name with which God revealed himself to Moses.

The name of Jesus is presented in the book of Psalms in a prophetic way. Let’s review, for example, Psalm 20, verses 5 and 6.

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions. 6Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

In verse 5, the term, salvation; and in verse 6, saving, they are written in Hebrew in the following way, respectively:

  • בִּ֮ישׁ֤וּעָתֶ֗ךָ

  • יֵ֣שַׁע

The root of both words is the same: ישׁועת

Now, remember how the names of Joshua and Jesus are written.

יְהוֹשֻׁעַ    Joshua

ישוע     Jesus

If we compare the terms of salvation in Psalm 20 that we have highlighted and compare them with the structure of the names of Joshua and Jesus, we will see that the terms are the same.

Now, let’s change the word salvation, for its prophetic meaning, Jesus; and let us also change the name by which the Lord revealed himself to Moses, and we will read,

5We will rejoice in thy Jesus, and in the name of our I am that I am we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions. 6Now know I that the LORD Jesus his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the Jesus strength of his right hand.

As we see, the name of Jesus was prophesied by David in his psalms, and confirmed by the angels who proclaimed him from heaven the night when Jesus was born.

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. Luke 2:11

Another example is Psalm 3,

Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah. Psalm 3:8

Let’s change the word salvation by its meaning, and we have,

Jesus belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah. Psalm 3:8

Compare the text of these two psalms with what the apostle Paul wrote in his epistle to the Ephesians:

And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, Ephesians 1:19

The apostle Paul is writing in the same terms as the psalmist. The apostle is speaking about the name of God. All this means that David was prophesying about the arrival of who would establish the Kingdom of Heaven on earth.

So, the name of Jesus comes from the name of God that is revealed to Moses, which is the evidence that Jesus is God.

10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works’ sake. Juan 14:10, 11
