Throne of Judah Re-established
God describes the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem. He re-establishes the Tribe of Judah and the Throne of Judah. (Is 9:7; Is 16:5; Ps 89:3-4; Amos 9:10-11; Dan 7:14; Lk 1:32)
Jesus Stands Up to Testify
“So I will come to put you on trial. I will be quick to testify against sorcerers, adulterers and perjurers, against those who defraud labourer of their wages, who oppress the widows and the fatherless, and deprive the foreigners among you of justice, but do not fear Me,” says the Lord Almighty. (Mal 3:5-12)
Breaking Covenant by Withholding Tithes – “I, the Lord, do not change. So you, the descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed. Ever since the time of your ancestors you have turned away from My decrees and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty. “But you ask, ‘How are we to return?’ “Will a mere mortal rob God? Yet you rob Me. “But you ask, ‘How are we robbing You?’ “In tithes and offerings. You are under a curse – your whole nation – because you are robbing Me. Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse that there may be food in My house. Test Me in this,” says the Lord Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of Heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it. I will prevent pests from devouring your crops, and the vine in your fields will not drop their fruit before it is ripe,” says the Lord Almighty. “Then all the nations will call you blessed, for yours will be a delightful land,” says the Lord Almighty. (Mal 3:6-12)
Israel Speaks arrogantly Against God – “You have spoken arrogantly against Me,” says the Lord. “Yet you ask, ‘What have we said against You?’ “You have said, ‘it is futile to serve God. What do we gain by carrying out His requirements and going about like mourners before the Lord Almighty? But now we call the arrogant blessed. Certainly evildoers prosper and even when they put God to the test, they get away with it.” (Mal 3:13-15)
Faithful Remnant
The Faithful Remnant – Then those who feared the Lord talked with each other, and the Lord listened and heard. A scroll of remembrance was written in His presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honored His name “On the day when I act,” says the Lord Almighty, “They will be My treasured possession. I will spare them, just as a father has compassion and spares his son who serves him. And you will again see the distinction between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve God and those who do not. (Mal 3:16-18)
Judgment and Covenant Renewal
Judgment and Covenant Renewal – (peace & love) “Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire,” says the Lord Almighty. “Not a root or a branch will be left to them. But for you who revere My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its rays. And you will go out and frolic like well-fed calved. Then you will trample on the wicked; they will be asked under the soles of your feet on the day when I act,” says the Lord God Almighty.
“Remember the law of My servant Moses, the decrees and laws I gave him at Horeb for all Israel. “See, I will send the prophet Elijah to you before that great and dreadful Day of the Lord comes. He will turn the hearts of the parents to their children, and the hearts of the children to their parents; or else I will come and strike the land with total destruction.” (Mal 4:1-6)
God’s Open Witness of the Covenant of Jesus Christ
There will be an open witness that speaks for the Covenant of Jesus Christ. (Mal 3:1-2)
Heaven must receive Him until the time comes for God to restore everything, as He promised long ago through His holy prophets. For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own people; you must listen to everything he tells you. Anyone who does not listen to him will be completely cut off from their people.’ “Indeed, beginning with Samuel, all the prophets foretold of these days. And you are heirs of the prophets and of the covenant God made you’re your fathers. He said to Abraham, ‘Through your offspring all peoples of the earth will be blessed.’ When God raised up His servant, he sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.” (Acts 3:21-26)
Triumph is Displayed Over the Bride of Christ
They triumphed over him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. (Rev 12:11)
Related Scripture: Heb 10:28-30; Rev 3:8
This Covenant of Jesus Brings Breakthroughs and Blessings
1. The Blood Covenant of Messiah is the fulfillment of the Abrahamic Promise that through Abraham’s seed all nations will be blessed. God blesses the nations. (Gen 18:18; Gen 22:16-18; to Isaac: Gen 26:4-5; Ex 32:13; Gal 3:8)
2. The Covenant to restore the nations will be realized. (Ps 46:7-11; Ps 66:7; Ps 72:8; Hab 2:14; Mt 19:26-30)
Arise, O God, judge the earth: for thou shalt inherit (possess) the nations. (Ps 82:8)
3. The Promise of Justice, Righteousness and Peace Advances. As it was for Noah in the Ark, The Day of the Lord means swift judgments and extreme and radical protection of His own. Clean hands and a pure heart are vital. There will be justice and peace. (Is 51:5; 2 Pet 2:9)
“’I will make a covenant of peace with them and rid the land of savage beasts so that they may live in the wilderness and sleep in the forests in safety. I will make them and the places surrounding My hill a blessing. I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing. The trees will yield their fruit and the ground will yield its crops; the people will be secure in their land. They will know that I am the Lord, when I break the bars of their yoke and rescue them from the hands of those who enslaved them. They will no longer be plundered by the nations, nor will wild animals devour them. They will live in safety, and now one will make them afraid. I will provide for them a land renowned for its crops, and they will no longer be victims of famine in the land or bear the scorn of the nations. They will know that I, the Lord their God am with them and that they, the Israelites, are My people, declares the Sovereign Lord. You are My sheep, the sheep of My pasture, and I am your God, declares the Sovereign Lord.” (Ezek 34:25)

4. The Covenant for Israel which is manifold will be set and achieved.
a. The Throne of Judah is restored. It will be back in might and power as it was in the days of King David. (2 Sam 7:16,28)
Once for all I have sworn by My holiness – and I will not lie to David – that his line will continue forever and his throne endure before Me like the sun; it will be established forever like the moon, the faithful witness in the sky. (Ps 89:35)
2017 is a landmark year. The number 7= Zayin in the Hebrew alphabet. In classical script it is construct of vav, representing a tent peg, having a large crown on its head. This is referred to in Isaiah 54:1-3. The Queen’s expansion is like the moving out of tent pegs. The Throne of Judah, kingly-priestly throne sees a perfection and grace in God’s fullness of time. The dark age of Judah closes. (Ps 65:11; Acts 3:21-26)
In that Day I will restore David’s fallen tent – I will repair its broken walls and restore its ruins – and will rebuild it as it used to be. Amos 9:11
Tent in this Hebrew context denotes FEMALE. (Is 54:1-2; Jer 31:22)
The Lord will create a new thing on the earth – the woman will protect the man. Jeremiah 31:22
The Lord was describing the Throne of Judah, on which a Queen would carry the Scepter of Justice, as King David did. She would be prophet, priest and king (queen). She would carry authority and spiritual military might and she would carry the anointing for victory. Jesus Christ would be her head and she would be the first-born Queen of Judah after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The Scriptural prophecies pertain to the faithfulness of God in maintaining the line of David and revealing it again in a restoration at the Age of Perfection, which began at Shavout 2020. Judah’s Royal Line would see a matriarchal head enthroned in governance under the King of Kings. The new beginnings of Israel’s Glory Time would rise. The Throne of Peace and Justice in governance and service to the King of Kings and His Bride would be established. (Ps 89)
The Throne of Judah
In love a throne will be established; in faithfulness a man will sit on it – one from the house of David – one who in judging seeks justice and speeds the cause of righteousness. (Is 16:5)
Genesis 49:10 says: The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, Until he comes to whom it belongs. To him will the obedience of the people’s will be.
2 Samuel 7:16 says: Your house and your kingdom shall be made sure for ever before you: your throne shall be established forever.
Zedekiah was the last King of Judah recorded in the Biblical text. Jeremiah 43:3 describes the prophet Jeremiah taking the king’s daughters to Egypt. From there is it believed he took one or two of the daughters to Spain, Ireland and then Scotland. The daughter that married and settled in Scotland became the progenitor of the Throne of Judah that has risen again now to be seen.
Ezekiel 17:4, 22-24 describes the young twigs (two daughters of King Zedekiah).
Ezek 17:4 – He (Nebuchadnezzar) cropped off the top (King Zedekiah) of his young twigs, and carried it into a land of traffick; he set in a city of merchants. (Babylon)
Ezek 17:22 – Thus saith the Lord “I AM”; will also take of the highest branch of the high cedar, and will set (it); I will crop off from the top of his young twigs a TENDER ONE (Female), and will plant it (her) upon a high mountain and eminent (in British Isles – Ephraim)
Ezek 17:23 – In the mountain of the height of Israel will I plant it (believed at Tara): and it shall bring forth boughs, and bear fruit, and be a goodly cedar: and under it shall dwell all fowl of every wing; in the shadow of the branches thereof shall they dwell.
Ezek 17:24 – And all the trees of the field shall know that I the “I AM” have brought down the high tree (Parez in Jerusalem), have exalted the low tree (Zarah in Ireland), have dried up the green tree (the 2 tribed house of Judah), and have made the dry tree (the 10 tribed House of Israel) to flourish: I the “I AM” have spoken and have done it.

After many days you will be called to arms. In future years you will invade a land that has recovered from war, whose people were gathering from many nations to the mountains of Israel, which had long been desolate. They had been brought out from the nations, and now all of them live in safety. (Eze 38:8)
c. The possessing the Lands of Canaan given to Father Abraham for eternity will be realized. (Gen 12:1-7; Ex 16:35; Lev 14:34; Lev 25:38; Num 13:2-17; Num 32:30-32; Num 34:2,29; Num 35:14; Deut 1:8; Deut 11:24; Deut 32:49; Josh 14:1; Josh 21:2; Ps 105:8-11; Jer 30:3-4; Ezek 38:8; Amos 9:11-12)

“Their descendants will be known among the nations and their offspring among the peoples. And all who see them will acknowledge that they are a blessed people the Lord has blessed.” (Is 61:9)
f. The captives will be set free. (Ps 68:6; Ps 79:11; Ps 107:10-15; Ps 146:7-8; Is 51:14-16; Is 52:7; Is 61:1-11; Lk 4:18)
The nations will fear the name of the Lord, all the kings of the earth will revere Your Glory. For the Lord will rebuild Zion and appear in His Glory. He will respond to the prayer of the destitute, He will not despise their plea. Let this be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may praise the Lord: The Lord looked down from His sanctuary on high, from Heaven He viewed the earth, to hear the groans of the prisoners and release those condemned to death.” So the name of the Lord will be declared in Zion and His praise in Jerusalem when the peoples and the kingdoms assemble to worship the Lord. (Ps 102:15-22)
g. As it was in the days of Cyrus, there shall be a restoration of the capital (Jerusalem), the rebuilding of the walls, and the restoration of the temple. (Is 61:1-11; Ezek 40:5; Ezek 43:7)

The Mountain of the Lord – This is what Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem: In the last days the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come and say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the temple of God of Jacob. He will teach us His ways, so that we may walk in His paths.” The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many people. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. (Is 2:1-5)
h. He who blesses Israel will be blessed. (Lk20:18)
“I will make you a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all the peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” (Gen 12:12-13)
Revival
You, Lord, showed favor to Your land; You restored the fortunes of Jacob. You forgave the iniquity of Your people and covered all their sins. You set aside all Your wrath and turned from Your fierce anger. Restore us again, God our Saviour, and put away Your displeasure toward us. Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger through all generations? Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You? Show us Your unfailing love, Lord, and is near to us Your salvation. I will listen to what God the Lord says; He promises peace to His people, His faithful servants – but let them not turn to folly. Surely His salvation is near those who fear Him that His Glory may dwell in our land. Love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss each other. Faithfulness springs forth from the earth, and righteousness looks down from Heaven. The Lord will indeed give what is good, and our land will yield its harvest. Righteousness goes before Him and prepares the way for His steps. (Ps 85:1-13)
The Heavens Declare the Glory
The heavens declare the Glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day they our forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun. It is like a bridegroom coming out of His chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run His course. It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth. The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statues of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are radiant, giving light to the eyes. The fear of the Lord is pure enduring forever. The decrees of the Lord are firm, and all of them are righteous. They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb. By them is Your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward. But who can discern their own errors? Forgive my hidden faults. Keep Your servant also from wilful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless, innocent of great transgression. May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. (Ps 19:1-14)
The Day of the Lord
The Day of the Lord – You, Lord, have abandoned Your people, the descendants of Jacob. They are full of superstitions from the East; they practice divination like the Philistines and embrace pagan customs. Their land is full of silver and gold; there is no end to their treasures. Their land is full of horses, there is no end to their chariots. Their land is full of idols; they bow down to the work of their hands, to what their fingers have made. So people will be brought low and everyone humbled – do not forgive them. Go into the rocks, hide in the ground from the fearful presence of the Lord and the splendour of His majesty! The eyes of the arrogant will be humbled and human pride brought low; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day. The Lord Almighty has a day in store for all the proud and lofty, for all that is exalted (and they will be humbled), for all the cedars of Lebanon, tall and lofty, and all the oaks of Bashan, for all the towering mountains and all the high hills, for every lofty tower and every fortified wall, for every trading ship and every stately vessel. The arrogance of man will be brought low and human pride humbled; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day, and the idols will totally disappear. People will flee to caves in the rocks and to holes in the ground from the fearful presence of the Lord and the splendour of his majesty, when He rises to shake the earth. In that day people will throw away to the moles and bats their idols of silver and idols of gold, which they made to worship. They will fell to caverns in the rocks and to the overhanging crags from the fearful presence of the Lord and the splendour of His majesty, when He rises to shake the earth. Stop trusting in mere humans, who have but a breath in their nostril. Why hold them in esteem? (Is 2:6-22)
The Glory of the Lord
“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the Glory of the Lord rises upon you. See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon you and His Glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn. “Lift up your eyes and look about you: All assemble and come to you; your sons come from afar, and your daughters are carried on the hip. Then you will look and be radiant, your heart will throb and swell with joy; the wealth on the seas will be brought to you, to you the riches of the nations will come. Herds of camels will cover your land, young camels of Midian and Ephah. And all from Sheba will come bearing gold and incense and proclaiming the praise of the Lord. All Kedar’s flocks will be gathered to you, the rams of Nebaioth will serve you; they will be accepted as offerings on My altar, and I will adorn My glorious temple. Who are these that fly along like clouds, like doves to their nests? Surely the islands look to Me; in the lead are the ships of Tarshish, bringing your children from afar, with their silver and gold to the honor of the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, for He has endowed you with splendour.” Foreigners will rebuild your walls and their kings will serve you. Though in anger I struck you, in favour I will show you compassion. Your gates will always stand open, they will never be shut, day or night, so that people may bring you the wealth of the nations – their kings led in triumphal procession. For the nation or kingdom that will not serve you will perish; it will be utterly ruined. “The glory of Lebanon will come to you, the juniper, the fir and the cypress together, to adorn My sanctuary; and I will glorify the place for My feet. The children of your oppressors will come bowing before you; all who despise you will bow at your feet and will call you the City of the Lord, Zion of the Holy One of Israel. “Although you have been forsaken and hated, with no one traveling through, I will make you the everlasting pride and the joy of all generations. You will drink the milk of nations and be nursed at royal breasts. Then you will know that I, the Lord, am your Saviour, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. Instead of bronze I will bring you gold, and silver in place of iron. Instead of wood I will bring you bronze, and iron in place of stones. I will make peace your governor and well-being your ruler. No longer will violence be heard in your land nor ruin or destruction within your borders, but you will call your walls Salvation and your gates Praise. The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory. Your sun will never set again and your moon will wane no more; the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your days of sorrow will end. Then all your people will be righteous and they will possess the land forever. They are the shoot I have planted, the work of My hands, for the display of My splendor. The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time I will do this swiftly.” (Is 60:1-22)
… for the sake of my people, those of my own race, the people of Israel. Theirs is the adoption to sonship; theirs the Divine Glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law, the temple worship and the promises. Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of the Messiah, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen. (Rom 9:2-5)
Has not the Lord Almighty determined that the people’s labor is only fuel for the fire, that the nations exhaust themselves for nothing? For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea. (Hab 2:14)
The Liberation of Creation
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the Glory that will be revealed in us. For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently. In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God. (Rom 8:18)
