SEVENTY WEEKS OF DANIEL - I Daniel Understood By Books



Dan 9:2
In the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, understood by books.....

In Dan 9:2, Prophet Daniel, the old testament end time messenger gave us an insight that will help all the elect in this our days.

Jesus Christ, the Almighty God is a God of books. He has books in heaven, books of works and book of life. Remember, the 10 commandments given to Moses was written with His own fingers. He wrote on the wall in book of Daniel. There is also the flying roll, mentioned in Zech. Jeremiah was also given a roll to eat. Now, the most important one is the Seven sealed book. Books... Books.. Books.... He said in His Word, My mouth has speaketh them and my Spirit has gathered them ( together in a written form). Indeed our God is an Author.

No controversy, a true elect can never succeed on this earth without books. What kind of books? Spiritual books.... From the Bible, to the scroll and christian books that will build us spiritually. So, an elect of God that dont cherish and love reading&studying these spiritual books is in danger and should take heed.

In this message, starting from last church age messenger William Marrion Branham wrote and print out many books. Even though he has gone to meet the Lord, we can still hear God speaking to us through his books. Now, to the prophet of the seven thunders, Neal Frisby... He left us with the scrolls, special writings, sermon books, monthly news letter and even video&audio messages.

So, a true elect cannot survive wothout books. He or she must be a lover of books. Are you a Son of Books like your father is? Check yourself. You cannot do without books. But a question come to mind... Why books? What is special about books? Why has God choose book as a special medium to communicate His messages to His elect? This the Holy Spirit will teach us in our next article...

We need to understand this- it is the spoken Word that became the Written Word, it was spoken first before it was written, and Every Written Word of God is by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, as the writer was moved by the Holy Spirit. So, Holy Spirit is the ink God uses in written all spiritual books.

Now, All the prophets of God are men of books... 
From Moses to Joshua (Jos 1;8) to David (Ps 119) Daniel to Zechariah... Not only that, Apostle Paul was a man of books, remember what he told Timothy 
in 2 Tim. 4:13...
"The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou
comest, bring with thee , and the books, but
especially the parchments." He read books, He got all the revelation from books by the Holy Spirit.

Now even our Lord Jesus Christ quoted His written Word.... It is written..... 
Even the book of Revelation, Jesus has to command John the beloved to put it into written... 
I always ask a question, assuming there is no Written Word of God (I mean the Bible, Scroll and e.t.c)... How can we get to know Him and His Word? Christianity will not be real, it would have been a waste of time and many will give up tooo soon.

So, why books?
I will clasify this reasons into three, which are
1) God Use books to preserve His Message
2) God Use books to preserve the anointing of the Holy Spirit
3)God uses books to preserve the Revelation of Who He is and His Mysteries...

Everything we need to succeed as a christian is embedded in the Word, including the eternal life...

(1) To Preserve His Messages

We want to see the first one, which: God uses written books to preserve His messages for generations to generations, So that they can have access to His Written Words.

Now, let it be known that every spiritual books and materials carries a message. From one verse of the scripture to another (so every verse must be understood).

Just imagine how it would have been if the events, commandments, instructions, psalms and prophecies of the old testament is not put into written eiher in tablet of woods, stones, roll, scrolls, parchments and etc. Imagine if God did not moved upon the authors of new testaments to write all these revelead mysteries of God,/account of Jesus Christ birth, ministry, death and ressurection, or its the book of revelation you want to say, then there will be nothing like end end time message. What of the sven seals, the seven thunders, seven vials, that God revealed to our Prophets. Imagine Bro Neal Frisby decided not to put the scroll into writting.... How will this message that we believed would have reach out to us, not even of saying the remaining part of the 144 000 and the wise virgins. Just imagine what would have happen.

So, every word of God written and all spiritual books has a message God want to reveal to you as you take time to read, study and take time to meditate on it. Remember, Holy Spirit is the revelator of all the mysteries even the deep mysteries of God.

THE SEVENTY WEEKS OF DANIEL - Introduction



Daniel 9:24
[24]Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.

Lord willing, we're taking the subject of Daniel's Seventy of Weeks. And towards the end we will be able to talk about the abomination of desolation, our last signs of the end time in the previous article.
We're speaking on Daniel in captivity and Gabriel flying in to instruct him about the future. While Daniel was in prayer, Gabriel, the Angel, come in to instruct him. Let me lay some foundation about this cricial topic that has been misinterpreted by many teachers.

The prophecy of the 70 years in Babylon was given by prophet Jeremiah which Daniel got to know about reading the prophetic book. 

Jeremiah 25:8-11
25:8 Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Because ye have not heard my words,
25:9 Behold, I will send and take all the families of the north, saith the LORD, and Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants thereof, and against all these nations round about, and will utterly destroy them, and make them an astonishment, and an hissing, and perpetual desolations.
25:10 Moreover I will take from them the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the millstones, and the light of the candle.
25:11 And this whole land shall be a desolation, and an astonishment; and these nations shall serve the king of Babylon seventy years.
25:12 And it shall come to pass, when seventy years are accomplished, that I will punish the king of Babylon, and that nation, saith the LORD, for their
iniquity, and the land of the Chaldeans, and will make it perpetual desolations.
25:13 And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.

Daniel 9:1-3
1 In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;
2 In the first year of his reign, I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem. 
3 And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes.I prayed unto the LORD... God, and made my confessions,... (And on and on it goes, until now we get to the 20th verse.)

He was inspired by what he reads in the prophetic book and he sought the face of the Lord, and the prophecy of the 70 weeks was given to him in addition. He was seeking God because of the 70 years but God spoke to him about another 70 weeks which is commonly being referred to as The Seventy weeks of Daniel.

Now, the prophet Daniel had been in Babylon for sixty-eight years. He went into captivity in B.C. 606. And when the vision came to him was--was B.C. 538; 538 from 606 leaves 68. Sixty-eight years he had been in Babylon amongst heathens and still had the victory. 
But he had been in the very midst with nobody but three companions, and them in different parts of the kingdom. But Daniel standing alone with God held the victory for sixty-eight years. But sixty- eight years he had kept the victory and was undefiled before God without the baptism of the Holy Ghost, without the Blood of Jesus Christ to make intercessions for him, with only the blood of bulls and goats and heifers which he had to offer secretly, because of the heathen traditions of that land. They'd been taken down there. Jeremiah prophesied of them that they were going down.

Now, he had begin to see that the time was getting close, just as we are today that the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ is very close. Daniel begin to understand, he said, by the reading of books. And I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, therefore the word of the LORD came to Jeremiah the prophet, that should be accomplished seventy years in... desolation of Jerusalem.

Daniel, yet an alien, yet ousted from his people, ousted from his church, without one church service, without any church to go to, without any hymns to be sang but what he sang himself, in the midst of all of this, still held onto what that prophet said. 
No church to go to, nobody to fellowship with; everybody went to heathen temples; everybody worshipped their idols. No Christian songs, nobody believed the same thing he did, and in sixty- eight years, from a young man of about twelve, fourteen years old when he was taken down there, he held true to God and understood by Jeremiah's prophet that the days were almost accomplished. 

And if Daniel, the prophet of the Lord, could consult Jeremiah's books and bring him to such a place that even Israel coming out, all of them alive, was coming out of Babylon to go back to the homeland would cause him to fast with sackcloth and ashes, how much more ought it to do to the Church of the Living God to know that time is fading out and shall be no more, and the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ and the great Millennium ready to set in? How can we spend wasteless time gambling, swimming holes on Sundays, no time for the Lord. Just run down, if the pastor speaks on something or other you don't like, you get up and go out. And if the if the church holds too long, why, you're dissatisfied. Look at our condition. Look what we're doing. Compare our lives with that prophet. One man in a complete kingdom with no church to go to and none nowhere else to go to... It was tore down and burned down. His city, his people was captive. Sixty-eight years, he had two years left.
So when he begin to read in the book and see that the time was drawing nigh to fulfill--be fulfilled, he went to God in prayer to find out about it.

To be continue!!!
