A call for a turning back unto the LORD. Spiritual healing will be found in Him and in Him alone. They had been scattered abroad and wandered aimlessly. Eze. 34:6 The intentions of the Lord are expressed by His promise to seek the lost and those who were driven away, to bring them once again into contact with Himself. He promised that He would seek them and bind that which was broken, giving strength to the sick, while at the same time punishing those who had taken advantage of them.
Eze. 34:16 There is the sound of a Messianic prophecy to be found here. Jesus came ministering to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. Mt. 10:6.
After two days. A day to the Lord is as a thousand years to mankind. Ps. 90:4, 2 Peter 3:8 That is understandable when compared to eternity. We are coming to the conclusion of the second day or the end of two thousand years since Christ. We are living in the sunset of that second day. The day ends with a great reviving and manifestation of the power of the Lord. It is harvest time. This world is yet to know the greatest revival ever.
The resurrection of the righteous dead will take place at the conclusion of the second day. The dead in Christ and the living will be caught up to meet Him in the air. 1 Thess. 4:16-17 This will introduce the third day (a thousand years) which will be spent here on this earth, it will be the Kingdom of our God and of His Christ. These are those who come up in the first resurrection and reign with Christ for the thousand years. Rev. 20:6 The ungodly dead are not seen again until the conclusion of the thousand years and then are briefly loosed from the grave and judged. Rev. 20:5
A people of knowledge, not the knowledge of this world but a full and complete comprehension of the will and workings of the Lord through the Holy Spirit. A demonstration of the pure and holy power of the Lord in miraculous signs and wonders. Jesus promised a season of greater works. John 14:12 To follow on, Hebrew, radaph, means to pursue, to run after, to chase, to hunt. The intensity of the word is indicative of the great desire of a people who have a tremendous craving for more of the Lord. A reaching out, a pursuit, a running after Him, more than anything else in all of this world. They have the same hunger and vision that was expressed by Paul when he spoke of his reaching forth, striving after, pressing, pushing on for the finish line and the prize which the Lord had prepared for him. Phil. 3:13-14 There is to be found in his declaration of purpose and objective the determination that is to be found in any champion who has their mind set on winning. There must be a drive, a great zeal manifest in the life of that one who would be a winner and gain the crown of victory. Only those who have a great passion for winning will wear the victors crown.
