The Amazing Message behind the

Numbers 3, 7, 50, 70, and 120 in SCRIPTURE

When Abba imparts revelation knowledge into the spirit of one of His trusted servants, sharing His nature, ways, and reasoning on what He spoke in His Word, or regardingthe fulfillment of His prophetic Word, that’s only a beginning. Please note: TheAmos 3:7principle is embedded in flint rock, unchangeable! “For the Master Yahuwah does nothing unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.”He teaches all of His true children to bring them into “echad” alliance.

Yahuwah Elohim knows and trusts His faithfulservants, because they have allowed Him to train and teach them by His own Spirit! They have allowed His Spirit to discipline them, so that they know their Master well. Therefore, they are “echad” (in unity as one) with Him, as Messiah prayed in John 17.Because they know Him, and thus know what He requires of His servants, He can impart what is on His mind to them, i.e. share His secrets, and give them assignments to carry out His will. In being a faithful servant, there is a very personal interworking together with the Master. By Yahuwah’s Spirit, His servants are being brought into the amazing unityof Psalm 133,John 17:11, 15-23, and Revelation 14:1-5.

He knows that His trained and disciplined servants can be trusted to do just what He asks of them, just as Abraham’s servant in Genesis 24, to whom Abraham gave explicit instructions for finding a bride of Yitzak/Isaac.His trusted ones are like their Master Yahushua, who said nothing and did nothing without being in alignment, in perfect unity, with His Father. (John 5:19, 30; 7:16; 8:28, 40; 12:49-50; 14:24)

In the ancient culture of the East, at an early age, a child begins their training as a disciple (a taught one) of their parents. The boy is tutored by his father; the girl is tutored by her mother. In this since, each child serves their parents, submits to the commands of their parents, in obedience--submitting to their teaching and to their guidance--so that they continue on the work of their parents, being extensions of their parents wherever they go.

It is the same way with our Abba Yahuwah. We are the “sons” of the Living Elohim if we are born-again by faith in Messiah by the working of the Spirit of Yahuwah. Messiah said to His disciples in training, “I have called you `friends.’ ” (John 15:9-17) This statement refers us back to Abraham and his servant – the two were friends. (Genesis 24) Abraham was called “the friend of Yahuwah.” Yahuwah also treated Moses as His friend: Exodus 33:11: “And Yahuwah spoke unto Moses face to face as a man speaks to his friend.”

To be a faithful friend of the Creator is the highest privilege we created beings can have!But, sadly, His children, out of carnality, laziness, or whatever reason, choose to be disciples of man, choose to live like the world’s people, and thus cut themselves off from knowing Yahuwah and Yahushua--thus cutting themselves off from experiencing this high and set-apart privilege.

Does He know you? The word “know” in Hebrew, in regards to relationship, is a marriage term, an intimacy term. It means deep knowing. It is a knowing for Him that goes back before the foundation of the world, when the names of His children were written in the Book of Life. The most horrible thing anyone could hear from Him is “Truly I say to you, `I do not know you.” (Matthew 25:12)

Matthew 25:14-30, and Luke 12:31-48 tells us a little about the final judgment of His servants, distinguishing between those whom He can trust, and those that did not possess what He gave them, and so lost it. This parable demonstrates the reality of Luke 8:17-18.

Along these same lines, once again Ihighly recommend you to read the mini-book For the Love of Truth – Possessing Your Eternal Lifeby Derek Townsend. It is available on Amazon Kindle and on his blog site thewelltroddenroad.org. I don’t recommend this because Derek is my son, but because, alongwith many other deep revelations, he goes into depth on the three parables in Matthew 25, and shows what it really mean to “possess” what we have been given. His book has greatly inspired me! Unless you understand what it means to “possess” your eternal life, you can lose it! We are in the days of testing and separation!

Messiah will return on “Yom Teruah”--the 5th Festival--the Day of Trumpets and Shouting. (Matthew 24:29-31) It begins with Rosh Chodesh, the new moon of Tishre 1, Psalm 81:3a.Tishre 1 begins the Creator’s calendar from where we get the cycles of His timing for us and all human beings. It also sets the timing of Jubilee years. The Exodus 12:3 calendar is for “us,”with double emphasis. It determines the Festival year “for us.” It is not for the world’s people.

I Thessalonians 5:1-10: If you are a child of light, the “Day” will not overtake you as a thief. If we are set-apart to Yahuwah, He will share His mind with us. He teaches the same things to all of His servants who are hearing, so that we might be in unity with Him.

Yom Teruahis also known as “Yom ha Din”--the “day of judgment.” On this Day, the “Day of Yahuwah,” Messiah descends with the wrath of His Father. We must know what is expected of us if we want to hear Him say “Well done, good and faithful servant…enter into the joy of your Master.” (Matthew 25:21)

Yahuwah never gives one person His revelation knowledge! He reveals His secrets to all of His trusted servants whom He considers His family. Beware of these wolves in sheep’s clothing who come with “new” teachings thatdirect people’s fascination to them. Of course, they always use Scripture to lure in those who do not know the whole Word well. Don’t be fooled!

Yahuwah sends us confirmation that we are walking on the narrow and straight path that leads to life when we hear His fellow servants relating the same revelation.Yahuwah and Yahushua never were in any of man’s religious undertakings. They never were in the founding of the 43,000 denominations and organizations within Christianity, or the abundant fragmentation within the Messianic Movement. Messiah always sought the FEW who would be in unity with Him and with His Father. (Matthew 7:13-14, Isaiah 6 with Matthew 13:10-17)

Daniel 2:21b-22: “He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who possess understanding. He reveals deep and secret matters. He knows what is in the darkness, and light dwells with Him.”

Psalm 25:14: “The secret of Yahuwah is with those who fear Him, and He makes His Covenant known to them.”

Mark 4:24-25: “Take heed what you hear. With what measure you use it shall be measured to you, and more shall be added to you who hear. For to whoever possesses, to him more shall be given; but whoever does not possess, even what he possesses shall be taken away from him.”

Luke 8:17-18: “For whatever is hidden shall be revealed and whatever is secret shall be known and come to light…whosoever does not possess, even what he thinks he possesses will be taken away from him.”

What does it mean to “possess” what He has given to you? Again, I recommend For the Love of Truth – Possessing Your Eternal Life, for clear cut answers to this question.

Footnote from The Scriptures, ISR/1998: “In these last days, Yahushua is indeed revealing much unto those who obey Him! Unto those who hear and obey whatever Truth Yahushua brings to them, He brings more truth. However, those who do not hold on to the truth He brings will lose it all, even that which they think they have.”

We live in a day when “truth has fallen in the street.” (Isaiah 59:14) We live in a day when anyone remaining loyal to the Truth, as revealed by the Spirit of Yahuwah, will be greatly hated, tracked down, and killed. (Amos 5:10) The hunters of Jeremiah 16:14-16 are released in these “latter days” against the children of Ya’cob--all of the children of Ya’cob. Jeremiah 30:7: “…the time of Ya’cob’s troubles,” is referring to all of Ya’cob’s children—that’s you and me!

After breakfast on Shabbat morning, January 9, 2016, I went back to my room. I picked up my Bible and “randomly” opened it toII Chronicles 5:12.Amazing! For several years I have been studying the timing of Yahuwah’s final wrath and judgment on the world,which comes with the return of Messiah Yahushua. He has helped me understand the cycles of 3,7, 50, 70 and 120. But, this morning, He concentrated on the number 120. Come journey with me!

II Chronicles 5:4-14:ISR 1998 from Bible Hub.com

4And all the elders of Yisra’ĕl came, and the Lĕwites took up the ark,5and they brought up the ark, the Tent of Meeting, and all the set-apart utensils that were in the Tent. The Lĕwite priests brought them up.6And Sovereign Shelomoh and all the congregation of Yisra’ĕl who were assembled to him before the ark, and were slaughtering so many sheep and cattle that could not be counted or numbered.7And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of יהוה to its place, into the Speaking Place of the House, to the Most Set-apart Place, under the wings of the keruḇim.8For the keruḇim spread their wings over the place of the ark, and the keruḇim covered over the ark and its poles.9And the poles were so long that the ends of the poles of the ark were seen from the set-apart place, in front of the Speaking Place, but they were not seen from outside. And they are there to this day.10There was naught in the ark but the two tablets which Mosheh put there at Ḥorĕḇ, when יהוה made a covenant with the children of Yisra’ĕl, when they came out of Mitsrayim.11And it came to be when the priests came out of the Most Set-apart Place – for all the priests who were present had set themselves apart, there was none to watch by division –12and the Lĕwite singers, all those of Asaph and Hĕman and Yeḏuthun, with their sons and their brothers, stood at the east end of the altar, dressed in white linen, having cymbals and harps and lyres, and with themone hundred and twenty priestssounding with trumpets.13Then it came to be, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking יהוה, and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets, and with cymbals, and with instruments of song, and giving praise to יהוה, “For He is good, for His kindness is everlasting,” that the house, the House of יהוה, was filled with a cloud,14and the priests were unable to stand and perform the service because of thecloud, for the esteem of יהוה filled the House of Elohim.

The Levites wore white linen. Attached to their “belt of truth” was the “sword of the Spirit” -- Revelation 15:6-16:1 with Revelation 11:15-18. In Exodus 32, the Levites executed judgment against the participants of golden calf worship. Eliyahu, being a Levite-priest, had the right to slaughter the 450 prophets of Ba’al on Mount Carmel. (I Kings 18) The Bride of Messiah wears white linen (Revelation 19:8), which is the garb of the righteous set-apart ones, priests unto Yahuwah. The pouring out of the vials of wrath (Revelation 16) upon the earth is done by His servants, His Levite servants! The Bride of Messiah will take a Levite position in these last days. Psalm 149:6-9: His servants will be given the “two-edged sword” of His Word, to execute judgment on the nations and on fallen angels. James Block’s musical rendition of Psalm 149 says that we will execute the judgment “with the highest of praise.” One thing the enemy hates more than anything else is bold and passion-filled praise coming out of the mouths of the servants of Yahuwah!!!

KINGDOM OF PRIESTS

Exodus 19:5-6:The Scriptures 1998, Bible Hub

5‘And now, if you diligently obey My voice, and shall guard My covenant, then you shall be My treasured possession above all the peoples – for all the earth is Mine –

6‘and you shall be to Me a reign of priests and a set-apart nation.’ Those are the words which you are to speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl.”

I Kepha/Peter 2:9: Bible Hub

9But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a set-apart nation, a people for a possession, that you should proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.

Yahuwah has always wanted us to be a kingdom of priests, to proclaim His power, might, and love, to a lost and dying world. That is the principle calling of all who are born again. We are ambassadors of the Kingdom of heaven! (II Corinthians 5:14-21) Are you living up to this high and set-apart calling! This has been given to you to “possess” and expand. It is at the “end of our faith” that we receive the salvation of our being and rewards for faithful service. (I Peter 1:9)

On that Shabbat morning, in reading about the 120 priests, I immediately thought of Genesis 6:3 and the 120 years that Yahuwah’s Spirit would strive with man. I thought of Moses, who was 120 years old at his death, and of the 120 disciples on Shavu’ot (the Day of Pentecost) in Acts 1. I wondered about the significance of the 120 priests who brought up the Ark from the City of David into the Temple of Solomon. I am gaining more answers as I seek them.

Acts 1:14-15; 2:1-4:Bible Hub ISR 1998 edition of The Scriptures

14All these were continuing with one mind in prayer and supplication, with the women and Miryam the mother of יהושע, andwith His brothers.

15And in those days Kĕpha, standing up in the midst of the taught ones – and there was a gathering of about a hundred and twenty…Acts 2:1-4: 1And when the Day of the Festival of Weeks had come, they were all with one mind in one place.2And suddenly there came a sound from the heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.3And there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and settled on each one of them.4And they were all filled with the Set-apart Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them to speak.

Luke 3:16:16Yoḥanan answered, saying to them all, “I indeed immerse you in water, but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal straps I am not worthy to loosen. He shall immerse you in the Set-apart Spirit and fire.17“His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He shall thoroughly cleanse His threshing-floor, and gather the wheat into His storehouse, but the chaff He shall burn with unquenchable fire.”

On this thrilling day in 28 CE,there were approximately 120 “priests,” boldly proclaiming the greatest of Yahuwah to those assembled for the Feast of Shavu’ot, Pentecost, in Jerusalem. It was about 9:00 AM. On that morning, as the Spirit of Yahuwah so dramatically entered each temple of Yahushua’s disciples, which had been prepared by Yahuwah’s Spirit in the true new birth, it was a first for Yahuwah. He had withdrawn from His people as a wholefor mixing His teachings with those of idolatry. (Ezekiel 8-11:23) On this day of Shavu’ot, He grandiosely returned, not over a golden ark in a temple made with hands, but into the temples of His beloved ones to take up His residency. And out of the mouths of His united remnant, He spoke in the languages of the people assembled there. Overwhelming reality!

This was the first time since 586 BCE, when Nebuchadnezzar’s troops destroyed the Temple of Solomon and the city of Jerusalem that Yahuwah returned to dwell with His people. Thus, as in I Kings 8, and II Chronicles 5:3-11, the Spirit of Yahuwah descended with “fire,” and the people were immersed into Him.

Wicked denominational doctrines of men have cut off this glorious privileged from a great portion of His people by saying it is not for today. Other denominations have distorted this glorious entrance/immersion into something superficial for another great portion of His people. Tragic! A pastor friend of mine once said: “If you do things the Bible way, you get the Bible results.”

Without allowing Messiah to immerse you into His Spirit, you cut yourself off from Yahuwah ruling your life, for Yahuwah is the Spirit, the Spirit is Yahuwah. (IICorinthians 3:17-18, and the whole of Scripture)[Refer to: “Exposing the Trinity Doctrine”/February 12, 2015]To reject the infilling of the Spirit of Yahuweh is to reject your Creator from abiding within you.

Deuteronomy 31:1-2, 6-7:The Scriptures (ISR 1998)

1And Mosheh went and spoke these words to all Yisra’ĕl,2and he said to them, “I am one hundred and twenty years old today. I am no longer able to go out and come in. And יהוה has said to me, ‘You do not pass over this Yardĕn.’ …6“Be strong and courageous, do not fear nor be afraid of them. For it is יהוה your Elohim who is going with you. He does not fail you nor forsake you.”7And Mosheh called Yehoshua and said to him before the eyes of all Yisra’ĕl, “Be strong and courageous, for you are going with this people to the land which יהוה has sworn to their fathers to give them, and you are to let them inherit it. …
