Thoughts on Davidic Kingship. In this last and final post, we’ll review the sealing and empowerment of Davidic Kings and Queens as part of an expanded sequence of Endtime events for the Restoration of the House of Israel. The focus, aim and hope of this entire blog was to first, establish identity - if I am a believer in the God of Israel - what does God require of me to be Israel and have a relationship with Him. And, second, what can I do to move forward His eternal plan for me and my family especially in the context of an Endtime paradigm. Hence, we’ll close out this blog with a look into the future. ENDTIME TRIBULATIONS According to the prophecy of Isaiah, we’ll see a period of tribulation before judgement. These tribulations will result in a plethora of events that prepare this world for the return and millennial reign of the Messiah Yeshua - God the Son - even the great Jehovah. Repent and Return First and foremost, the Endtime tribulations are to motivate Believers in the God of Israel to repent and return to God’s Law. To receive God’s protections, will require Believers to embrace the Torah commands because that is where God’s covenant of life resides - Deu. 28 - God gave us His Law that sustains and supports perpetual life. Test of Loyalty Second, the Tribulations will create an environment which tests a person’s core convictions. These tests assist the righteous to ascend to higher levels of blessedness. Here we’ll see the ascent of persons reaching the Seraphim/Joint-Heir level, which could occur in multiple ascents, but all of these ascents must happen within the context of striving to live the Laws of God, which we summarized in our last post. GATHERING GOD'S ENDTIME LEADERSHIP God sets His leadership first who are appointed to executive the Endtime gathering of Israel. This leadership includes an Elias who restores all things and prepares a people to receive the Messiah. This Endtime Servant Elias seals the 144,000 Davidic Kings/High Priests to reap righteous Israel (including grafted-in Gentiles) throughout the earth. Arrival of God’s Endtime Servant/Elias This Endtime Servant - an Elias - who will come with power, preaches the fullness of the Gospel in preparation for the second coming of the Messiah . This Servant-Elias will act as a catalyst to polarize a complete philosophical separation of the wicked and the righteous. We also see two witnesses raised up to prophesy to the religious Jews gathering in Israel. We should be watching for this Endtime servant with great interest. Gathering of God’s Elect/Joint-Heirs God gathers His leadership first as a pre-emptive event to the worldwide gathering of His Covenant People - Zion/Jerusalem/Pure In Heart. This gathering also establishes an Endtime refuge for the righteous. Building of an Endtime Temple The temple spoken of by Isaiah is constructed, which we covered in our last post. (We’ll also see the Jews in Jerusalem build their Temple.) And then the Sealing and Empowerment of the 144,000 Davidic Kings/High Priests who now have become Seraphim/Angels/Joint-Heirs is completed. Though wives of these Endtime servants don’t by and large exercise these powers themselves, husbands can only receive power by virtue of their married status. These are sealed up and empowered to execute the worldwide gathering of righteous Israel. Sealing provides Divine Protection This sealing action provides divine protection and sustenance until God’s servants have fulfilled their missions and established justice in the earth under God’s Servant. Dr. Gileadi, “Isaiah draws on the type of Moses to depict the servant’s status and his role as Israel’s lawgiver: “Neither shall he himself grow dim or be bruised till he has established justice in the earth. The isles await his law: Isaiah 42:2., Deu 34:7. - Endtime Prophecy, Gileadi, p. 228. We also see this divine protection with the two witnesses who prophesy to the gathered Jews in Israel mentioned in Rev. 11:5. “If any man 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.”
Empowered with Supernatural Abilities These 144,000 servants also receive power to seal up life and death. In other words, they have the power to save life and to destroy it. Dr. Gileadi, “The power of persons who operate on the seraph level “seal on earth and in heaven… Those who possess this sealing power are able “to save life and to destroy… to seal up unto life or to cast down to the regions of darkness. Although God will intervene in humanity’s affairs to deliver the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph and others with whom he covenanted to preserve their posterity, he will do so because, like Moses, some of their posterity rise to the occasion and serve as saviors.” - Endtime Prophecy, Gileadi, p 211, 212. These servants will also have the power to control the elements, call down fire from heaven, and smite the earth with plagues in order to gather God’s people - See Endtime Prophecy, Gileadi, pgs. 228-232. SEPARATING THE RIGHTEOUS AND WICKED The next section of Endtime events that we see is a physical separation of the righteous and the wicked. Worldwide gathering of God covenant People-Israel/Zion/Jerusalem Once the 144,000 Endtime servants are sealed and empowered, they go into all the earth preaching the fullness of the Gospel and gathering righteous Israel into a worldwide exodus out of Babylon to a place of safety. In the scriptures, we see a pattern of a place of safety in the nation of Egypt. Jacob took his family during the seven years of famine to Egypt. Joseph and Mary fled to Egypt to preserve the life of the Messiah. Throughout biblical history, Egypt continues to be a haven for Israel’s refugees (1 Kings 11:40; 2 Kings 25:26; Jeremiah 26:20–21; Matthew 2:13–14). So also, does an Endtime “Egypt” provide a safe haven. Destruction of the Wicked Once the wicked - those who are unwilling to live and guard God's law - are destroyed, the righteous return to their lands of inheritance and await for the coming of their king and age of peace. Second Coming of Messiah The Millennial Reign of Messiah
