THE ONE HUNDRED FORTY FOUR THOUSAND

IN HIS TIME. The Lord alone is the time keeper. Every event which He has scheduled for the end of the age will take place, exactly according to His planning. He has established a horizon, a limit for his world. It is an appointed time which He has predetermined. With the timing of the Lord, nothing is circumstantial. He has preset an agenda and is right on time with His purposes for the end of the age. Acts 17:26 There are yet a series of events which preclude and precede the climax of the end, that is, His Second Coming. Not the least of these is His relationship and marriage to His Bride. An event which is of great importance to the church of today and yet so few, even in the ministry, are aware that it is something which will take place here on earth. 

THE WOMAN OF REVELATION TWELVE IS A MARRIED WOMAN. She is shown in all of her beauty and splendor. Standing on light, clothed with light and crowned with light, all the light originating, emanating and beaming from the very being who is light. Rev. 12:1 In her marriage to the Lamb she has become as pure as purity itself. She has reached the apex of righteousness. There is not a flaw or fault in her. Her holiness, her sinlessness is equal to the Lord Himself. She is precisely what He is. He has elevated her to be equal with Himself. The Redeemer, the Savior, is called THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. That is the name whereby His character is known and manifest. Jer. 23:6 Then, to illustrate the point, please note, that she, His bride is endowed with the same name. Her rights, through marriage, are the same as His. For, she shall be called, The LORD our righteousness. His name, being and character is bestowed upon her. Jer. 33:16 My beloved is mine and I am His SOS. 2:16 The only perfect unspoiled marriage, ever. 

A MAN CHILD IS BORN. No living individual will be a part of this group. They are born of parents who are perfect and entire. The parents have reached the heights of Spirituality. The product of their marriage is so vital to the plan of the Lord, that satan, the old dragon is depicted standing at full alert to destroy the man child immediately at His birth. Rev. 12:4 That can only emphasize the importance of the man child. His significance is further revealed by the fact that he is immediately caught up into heaven, to God and His throne. We must draw special attention to His destiny. He has a very definite position of leadership in the heavenly and eternal economy of the Lord. He is to shepherdize the redeemed of all ages who are in the kingdom of the Lord. There is a definite order in the kingdom of the Lord. Spiritual guidance and leadership will be provided. Note the advice which Jethro gave to Moses for the provision of a suitable, working government. Ex. 18:17-25 There were five (number of atonement) levels of leaders. Moses, heads of thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens. Each answering to those above them, Moses answering to the Lord.
