The Mystery of Numbers

Transcription

1 The Mystery of Numbers JEREMIAH 33:2 3 This is what the Lord says, He who made the Earth, the Lord who formed it and established it the Lord is His name: Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. THERE IS NO ENDING TO THE VOICES THAT CARRY THE WORD OF GOD. GOD LOVES TO SPEAK THROUGH NUMERICAL EVENTS. One of the greatest prophetic voices that God has is through numerical sequences in the order of events in your life. Every single day, you have numbers in your life. What if God was speaking to you when He woke you up at 2:22 or 3:33 AM? EVERYTHING IN THE KINGDOM IS RELATIONAL BEFORE IT IS FUNCTIONAL. IT IS ALSO UNIQUELY TAILORED. CERTAIN NUMBERS ALWAYS SEEMED TO RELATE TO CERTAIN EVENTS OR HAVE CERTAIN MEANINGS. 153=ministry 1=unity 2=being a faithful witness or being separated from the world TROY BEGAN TO SEE THINGS IN HISTORY, THE NEWS HEADLINES, ETC. WOULD LINE UP WITH THE NUMERICAL VALUES OF THE BIBLE. HE DISCOVERED THE NUMBER 29 HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH MOUNTAINS. There are 29 mountains mentioned in the Bible. In the mountains of the world there are many 29 s attached to them. Mount Everest is 29 thousand and 29 feet tall! It was first surmounted on May 29th, NUMBER FOUR IS THE NUMBER OF ALL CREATION. That s why there is North, South East and West. Four lunar cycles Four seasons in a year Copyright 2016 Streams Ministries. All Rights Reserved. 1

2 Four elements Four cherubim circling the throne with four different faces, worshiping God on behalf of all creation The number seven is the most prolific number in the entire Bible. It represents spiritual perfection. It represents the manifest power of the Holy Spirit in our lives. NUMBER EIGHT REPRESENTS NEW BEGINNINGS IN OUR LIVES. NUMBER 16 1 Cor. 13:4 8 This verse gives 16 attributes to the love of God. 16 titles of Jehovah God NUMBER promises to him who overcomes in the book of Revelation IF WE WILL ACKNOWLEDGE HIM IN ALL OF OUR WAYS HE WILL DIRECT OUR PATHS. NUMBERS ARE A LEGITIMATE WAY THAT GOD SPEAKS TO US. EVERY TIME GOD WANTS TO PREACH A MESSAGE ON UNITY, HE STAMPS A NUMBER ONE ON IT. Jesus prayed Father, let them be one as We are one (John 17:11). NUMBER TWO REPRESENTS FAITHFUL WITNESS. The animals came into the ark by two s. Two witnesses in the Book of Revelation Two other people on the cross to witness it Two angels that witnessed the resurrection Two angels witnessed the ascension into Heaven. Every word is established by the mouth of two or three witnesses. UNPACKING NUMBER THREE FULLNESS, COMPLETE, RESURRECTION, DIVINITY And the Lord said to Moses, Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow. Have them wash their clothes and be ready by the third day, because on that day the Lord will come down on Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people (Exodus 19:19 11).

3 Jesus was raised on the third day. He was the perfect sacrifice. The writing on the cross was in three different languages. There were three crosses upon Calvary. There were three hours of darkness. The name Christian is mentioned only three times in the Bible. The term born again is mentioned only three times. John 3:3 Except a man be born again, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God. THREE=COMPLETION Samson lied to Delilah three times before he revealed to her the source of his true strength and when he did, his demise was complete. (Judges 16:15) Isaiah mentions three times that the wicked will have no place. Genesis 15:9 the Lord requests a three year old heifer, and three year old she-goat, and a three year old ram. Why? Because He can t stand having done things half way. Jesus raised three people from the dead. Three people from the Old Testament were raised from the dead. God spoke from Heaven three different times. The Jordan was parted three times. Noah s Ark had three different levels in it. God told Joshua three different times to be courageous. Jonah was in the belly of the great fish for three days. Three is the number that God uses to preach the fullness of something that He does very well. THERE ARE FOUR DIFFERENT COMPLETION OR PERFECTION NUMBERS: 3= Perfect, completion, fullness There are four different Perfect numbers: 3,7,10 and 12 o 7 = The Spirit of God being made manifest in a very complete way, o 10 = Perfect order o 12 = Perfect government Copyright 2016 Streams Ministries.

4 NUMBER 4 = PERFECT CREATION (Besides those listed above) 4 major Prophets of the Old Testament 4 gospels. 4 represent the entire world. NUMBER 5 = GRACE OF GOD David used 5 small stones when he was face to face with Goliath. Joshua had everyone he ordered to leave Egypt to go out in ranks of fives because it was by the grace of God. There are 5 different animals for sacrifice. Grace is not only the unmerited favor of God, but the ability to overcome obstacles the power to get past something. NUMBER 6 + MAN (CARNALITY) Man was created on the 6th day. 666 We know that the number 3 is perfect completion. So this represents a completely beastly person that is completely away from God Almighty. SEVEN = THE MANIFEST PRESENCE OF GOD DIVINE PERFECTION EIGHT = EVERYTHING THAT JESUS CHRIST IS DOING BEHOLD I MAKE ALL THINGS BRAND NEW. WHEN PEOPLE GET SAVED, GOD LIKES TO STAMP A NUMBER 8 UPON IT. NINE SOMETIMES A NUMBER WILL HAVE A NEGATIVE MEANING, AND SOMETIMES IT WILL HAVE A POSITIVE MEANING. In the positive: o 9 = fruit-bearing it takes 9 months to have a baby. o 9 = gifts of the Holy Spirit In the negative: o Judgement o 9 earthquakes o Sieges against Jerusalem TEN ONE OF THE PERFECT NUMBERS Perfect order 10 commandments Copyright 2016 Streams Ministries.

5 NUMBER 11 = In the negative: heroes/great faith In the positive: Disorder NUMBER 12 = PERFECT GOVERNMENT 12 constellations 12 tribes of Israel 12 apostles 12 hours of daytime 12 hours of night time God is saying I am in control of those things. 13 IS THE NUMBER OF REBELLION. 14 = GENERATIONAL PROMISES THE BOOK OF MATTHEW SAYS THERE ARE; 14 generations from Adam to Abraham, 14 generations from Abraham to the carrying away to Babylon, 14 generation from the carrying away to Babylon to Jesus. God will accomplish His purposes from generation to generation. THE NUMBER 15 = CONSECRATION The feasts happened on the 15th. 16 = THE LOVE OF GOD There are 16 attributes of the Love of God. 17 = OVERCOMING POWER 18 = BONDAGE 19 REPRESENTS FAITH. In Hebrews 11 there are 19 heroes that are listed. (Remember, 11 represents heroes of the faith. THE NUMBER 20 REPRESENTS EXPECTANCY. Expectancy is the currency of prophetic people.

6 There are 20 dreams and 20 visions listed in the Bible. That is 20-20! ACTS 222 IS THE ONLY SCRIPTURE THAT HAS ALL THREE SIGNS, MIRACLES AND WONDERS. 11:11 IS THE MOST ASKED ABOUT NUMBER. 11 is the number of mighty deeds and extraordinary acts. Hebrews 11 is exactly that. They overcame by faith. Veteran s day is on 11/11. The landing on the moon was Apollo 11. David had 11 mighty men of faith. Jesus was 33 years old when He overcame death, hell and the grave. 33 is 11 times 3. WRAP-UP There is no power in numbers, only the power in the Word of God. God is going to begin to speak to you in everything around you and it s beautiful! Proverbs says that it is the glory of God to conceal a thing, but the honor of kings to search out the matter. In these last days, (11 also mean the final hour.) I m seeing 11:11 everywhere. That is because the time is short Jesus Christ is coming back soon. In these last days, we want to hear Him more than ever before. Copyright 2016 Streams Ministries. All Rights Reserved. 6
