Psalms - Chapter 78

{Verses 38 - 51} 

Psalms 78:38 says, "But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up all his wrath." Psalms 78:39 says, "For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again." Psalms 78:40 says, "How oft did they provoke him in the wilderness, and grieve him in the desert!" When the children of the wilderness were disobedient over and over provoking our Father to anger wherein He wanted to destroy them, Moses interceded for them asking Almighty God for mercy [Numbers - Chapter 14]." In the "Name of Christ Jesus", the very elect of this generation pray on behalf of the disobedient who continue in their religious folly, practicing the doctrines and traditions of men. "Father God is longsuffering {patient}" as is taught in II Peter 3:9 and He therefore has compassion and forgives His children without measure when sins are repented for since He knows, being mortal, they are liable to sin; however our LORD will still chastise all who chose to remain disobedient. Father knows that all live in the flesh for a short time as is taught in James 4:14; life in the flesh as a blink of the eye compared to the Eternity. Let your spiritual self have rule over your physical self since when that "Seventh Trumpet" sounds, Father's "cup of wrath shall be poured" out when "Christ Jesus returns as King of kings and Lord of lords", upon all those who continued in their disobedience, participating in the deception of satan because they let their flesh rule over their spiritual self. Let the children in the wilderness, who despised the "Manna {Bread of Life, who is Christ Jesus} from Heaven" be an example as to how you should "not" act toward our Father God. Stop whining, moaning and complaining and thank our LORD as you study "His Word {Manna}" which blesses "you to lie down in green {understanding of the Good Gospel} pastures {peace and rest}" with our "Good Shepherd" who is "Christ Jesus our Living Word."  

Psalms 78:41 says, "Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel." Psalms 78:42 says, "They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered them from the enemy." You can limit "YAHOVAH, Father God Almighty" within your life because of disobedience in the "knowledge and instruction of His Word", which means you receive few or no blessings. When you forsake Father God, He will forsake you [II Timothy 2:11 - 13]. Humanity is quick to forget how good Father God is to His children. Just as Father God delivered the Israelites from the Egyptians, our LORD remembers "His Promise to deliver" all who serve and are under "His will" from the enemy who is satan the anti-christ when he is cast to this earth, "through Christ Jesus who is the Way, Path and Truth to the Light of Eternal Life." 

Psalms 78:43 says, "How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan:" Psalms 78:44 says, "And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they could not drink." Psalms 78:45 says, "He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them." Psalms 78:46 says, "He gave also their increase unto the caterpiller, and their labour unto the locust." Psalms 78:47 says, "He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycomore trees with frost." Psalms 78:48 says, "He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot thunderbolts." Psalms 78:49 says, "He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them."Psalms 78:50 says, "He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;"Psalms 78:51 says, "And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in the tabernacles of Ham:" "Zoan" means "place of departure." Father God "set {wrought} His miraculous acts {signs}", which were the ten plagues, against the Egyptians, idol worshippers, who held His children in captivity. The ten plagues in Egypt are taught of in Exodus - Chapters 7 through 12. These plagues were punishments against Pharaoh and Egypt for not setting Father God's children free from slavery when "He Commanded" them to do so. Pharaoh was demonstrating his power over the Israelites and questioning who "Father God is, as well as the Strength of His Power, Might and Authority." Exodus 5:2 says, "And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go? I know not the LORD, neither will I let Israel go. In the "tenth plague" Father God pronounces judgment against all the gods of Egypt. Exodus 12:12 says, "For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD." When satan is cast to this earth as the first/false anti-christ, a "flood" of lies shall spew from his mouth as he deceives most of humanity into believing he is our True Christ in his desire to bring about the "destruction {blood}" of as many souls as possible. Revelation 11:3 - 6 says, "And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth." "These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth." And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed." "These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will." Just as Pharaoh brought great "trouble" to the Israelites, satan as the first/false anti-christ shall bring great "trouble {Jacob's trouble}" to the people of this earth. Just as Pharaoh was "troubled with the plagues" called out by Moses through the "Power, Might and Authority of Almighty God", so shall satan be "be troubled with plagues" called out by the "two witnesses who shall ascend to this earth from Heaven" by the "Power, Might and Authority of Almighty God." The message and testimony of the "two witnesses" which all people throughout the whole earth shall hear of the imminent return of "Christ Jesus to this earth as King of kings and Lord of lords" shall "greatly enrage" satan as he sits his vile self in Jerusalem deceiving most of humanity into believing he is our True Christ here to rapture, any moment, fly them away. As Moses was commanded to say unto Pharaoh, "And thou shalt say unto him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath sent me unto thee, saying, Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness: and, behold, hitherto thou wouldest not hear [Exodus 7:16]", so shall the "two witnesses" say unto satan. Just like Pharaoh, satan believing he is mightier than our Father God Almighty, the "two witnesses" miraculously protected by the "Power, Might and Authority of Almighty God", shall bring plagues against satan and the ungodly as they give a testimony of the "Prophesies and Promises of our LORD God Almighty." "And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them [Revelation 11:7]." Father’s "two witnesses" testimony of the "Truth of His Word" was spiritually uplifting for those with eyes to see and ears to hear, however, as torture, totally overwhelming for satan, driving him to go, once again, against a direct "Commandment of Father God." "Touch not mine anointed and do my prophets no harm [I Chronicles 16:22]." In his desperation, "Truth" piercing satan beyond measure, he murders the "two witnesses ­after" they have "finished their testimony for Almighty God." Revelation 11:8 - 10 says, "And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified." "And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves." "And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth." "Dead bodies" means "corpses." "The great city" is "spiritually called Sodom [wickedness, corruption] and Egypt [tyranny, oppression]", as this is the type of satan and his entourage who shall take over the "Temple within the Holy City {Jerusalem}", their religious perversions causing most of humanity to "fall away {apostasy}" from the "Perfect Plan of Father God Almighty."  Most of the people of this world shall gaze upon the "anointed ones, lying dead in the street" and in their stupidity, breath free of the "Spirit of Father God" to inhale the stench of the son of perdition, "happy harlots {spiritually speaking}" in the bed of the abominable one. The beast, who is satan, tries to prevent martyrdom since upon the death of the "two witnesses", they would be worthy if their bodies disappeared and there was a claim they yet lived, so he shall keep an ever watchful eye on their corpses. The vile one, paranoid, as Christ Jesus defeated death who is satan, when, as the angel said in Matthew 28:6 to those who sought our Lord and the stone was rolled away, "He is not here: for he is risen, as he said, Come, see the place where the Lord lay." Our Lord Jesus Christ had "risen from the dead." "These two witnesses tormented satan and his entourage" because, by the "Authority of Father God", as they "taught the Truth of His Good Gospel" and did marvelous wonders that Father placed within them, surpassing the arrogance of satan, his pride was seated into nothingness. The son of perdition, who is satan, knew what he was up against, however the Biblically illiterate, deceived christians just saw Father’s "two witnesses" as mischief-makers there to put a damper on their tent revivals and hallelujah corners, tormenting the creature they believe is our True Christ Jesus. Therefore at the death of the "anointed ones", all of the ungodly of every nation upon this earth shall joyously celebrated until, "And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them." "And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them." "And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven." "The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly." "And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever." "And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God," "Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned [Revelation 11:11 - 17]."
