↝ FROM LINEN TO LURES: TO THESE, SHE GAVE THE CLOTHES THE LORD GAVE HER ↜

[Ezekiel 16 :16 MKJV] — "And you took from your clothes and adorned your high places with different colors, and fornicated on them, such as had not come, nor shall be."
⇵
[Ezekiel 16 :16 ICB] — And you took some of your clothes and made your places of worship colorful. This is where you carried on your prostitution. These things should not have happened. They should never happen again.
⇵
[Ezekiel 16 :16 TS’2009] — "“And you took some of your garments and made multi-coloured high places for yourself, and whored on them — which should not have come about, nor shall it be."
♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

There's an adage in my local dialect that says,

“If they are doing good things for a woman, she will be doing those good things for the one she likes”
Or
“If they are giving good things to a woman, she will be giving those good things to the one she likes”

Though this does not apply to all women, the adage implies that whatever good things people do or give to a woman will eventually get to another person (either a man, a pastor, a priest, an idol, a cosmetic, a god, a spirit, a pet, etc.) that she loves or likes. So, it is the person or thing she likes that gets to enjoy her, not the person or people that like her: they may spend so much on her, but hardly would she spend or give that much back to those who gave to her in gratitude or reciprocity, for she's wired to take from them and then give to the one loves or likes so much.

In line with this, behold the bible verse in red, which begins a series of to whom the unfaithful Bride gave or used up all the good things the Lord, Her Husband, had given to her: — In this episode of this bible verse in red, it was the “Linen clothes or Garments” the Lord her Husband had given or clothed her with, and to whom or to what she eventually gave those Linen clothes of hers to.

In simple terms,

She was clothed in fine linen—pure, radiant, and sacred—garments given to her by her Lord, her Husband, to cover her unclothedness and crown her dignity. But instead of honoring the Giver, she took what was holy and turned it into bait. The linen that once marked her as set apart became the fabric of her seduction—draped over high places, spread across foreign beds, and woven into the decor of abominations. What was meant to symbolize righteousness became a lure for unrighteousness. She did not just fall into sin; she dressed it with divine blessings and called it beauty. From linen to lures, from covering to corruption—this is the tragedy of a soul that forgets who clothed her and why.

She used those linen clothes gifted to her by her Husband to make bedsheets, curtains and multi-coloured decorations for places she wanted to get laid, becoming instead of a priestess, a temple prostitute or ritualistic sex worker, whose brothel or sex house was as a temple or shrine that elicited and connected worship with deitification of the pleasures and idols of fornication.

She adorned her high places with many colors but defiled holy people. Upon it she spread her bed in which she spread her legs, and there she multiplied her fornications. The wind carried her perfume, and many came from afar to defile themselves with her. Her high places were no sanctuaries, but stages of abominations—painted, perfumed, and profaned.

She turned rooftops and high places into spectacles —splashed with multi-colors and draped in shimmering Linen fabrics. They weren't just places of business, but statements: bold, brazen, unapologetic. From there, she transacted pleasures, her altar not of sacrifice but of seduction. People came not to just worship, but to forget themselves in the sensations and defiling ecstasies.

So, what became of the fine linen the Lord, her Husband, clothed her with to cover her unclothedness?

She had decked her bed of fornication or adultery with part of the linen just as the woman in the next Bible reference did, using linen from Egypt::

[Proverbs 7:13-23 FBV] — "She grabbed hold of him and kissed him, and with a bold face she told him, “I sacrificed my peace offering today, and paid my vows. That's why I came out to meet you. I was looking for you and now I've found you! My bed is made, covered with colorful linens from Egypt. I've sprinkled perfume on my bed— myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Come with me, let's make love until the morning. Let's enjoy one another in our love-making! My husband isn't home; he's gone on a long trip. He took a bag of money with him, and he won't be coming back until the full moon.” She convinced him with all that she said; she seduced him with her smooth talking. He followed her right away, like an ox to the slaughter. Like a stag that's caught in a snare until an arrow pierces its liver, like a bird flying into a trap, he's unaware he will pay with his life.”

A virtuous and wise woman with both cover her bed and clothe her body with linen: but a prostitute metaphorically covers her bed to expose her body or covers her body to expose her bed. To a virtuous and wise woman, her body is also her bed. Hence:

[Proverbs 31:22 BSB] — "She makes coverings for her bed; her clothing is fine linen and purple.”

The unfaithful Bride forgot she herself was the Temple, the High Place, the Bed and Sanctuary: and she being ignorant of who she was to the Lord, she foolishly took the linen clothes off her and gave them to other high places inferior to her, and went to be laid on them and to worship in their shadows. These things should not have happened both in past and in future: —

[2 Corinthians 6:16] — "What agreement can exist between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: “I will dwell with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.””

Here's wisdom: Your own body is more important as a temple than that church building you go on Sundays or Saturdays. Do not strip off the covering and linen garments of your body to go cover or decorate any church, place of worship or holy ground, at the expense of the holy garments with which the Lord clothed you. No church building will enter into heaven no matter how much heaven enters into it; but you and your body can be translated into heaven if you keep your garments and do not walk naked.

[Revelation 16:15 MKJV] — "Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is the one who watches and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.”

↝ CORRUPTION OF PERFECT BEAUTY ↜

[Ezekiel 16:15 AKJV] — "But you did trust in your own beauty, and played the harlot because of your renown, and poured out your fornications on every one that passed by; his it was."
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:15 ICB] — “‘But you trusted in your beauty. You became a prostitute because you were so famous. You had physical relations with anyone who passed by.
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:15 BBE] — "But you put your faith in the fact that you were beautiful, acting like a loose woman because you were widely talked of, and offering your cheap love to everyone who went by, whoever it might be."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

■1■ — True Beauty is of Holiness, but Beauty does not hold Holiness rather it is Holiness that holds Beauty.

■2■ — When a woman is strongly convinced and obsessed with the reality and powers of her beauty, her trust or confidence in her beauty's worth and influence will both empower her and also corrupt her.

■3■ — So, “Beauty is something perfect that can also corrupt.” Usually, perfect things do not have imperfection, corruption or abusive fault in them; but Beauty is an exception because Beauty can be perfect and at the same time be a dangerous corrupter. In this bible verse in red, the Bride that was perfect in beauty but became corrupted by her own beauty, because she trusted in her beauty. Another example of one who was perfect in beauty but was corrupted by his own beauty is the one refered to as Lucifer:

[Ezekiel 28:17 AKJV] — "Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may behold you.”

To include perfection he attained in beauty before the corruption by his beauty or brightness, let's add more preceding verses:

[Ezekiel 28:12,15,17 AKJV] — "Son of man, take up a lamentation on the king of Tyrus, and say to him, Thus said the Lord GOD; You seal up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. … You were perfect in your ways from the day that you were created, till iniquity was found in you. … Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty, you have corrupted your wisdom by reason of your brightness: I will cast you to the ground, I will lay you before kings, that they may behold you.”

■4■ — When a woman is obsessed or driven by a consciousness and influence of her beauty and charms, she advances into losing her purity (getting corrupted, defiled, losing holiness or virginity); but on the other hand, women or daughters who are obsessed or driven by the consciousness and preservation of their purity more than their beauty, and would most likely preserve their virginity.

Oh, why should something be perfect and still be deceitful? The answer is because it is Beauty or Charm, which is both perfect and deceitful at the same time to those who trust it. As it is written,

[Proverbs 31:30 ICB] — Charm can fool you, and beauty can trick you. But a woman who respects the Lord should be praised.

So, just as power can corrupt people, beauty can also corrupt and trick people. Now let's focus on the bible verse in red:

The Bride had perfect beauty, which her Lord built in her and that spread her fame abroad all over the nations because of her beauty. So by her beauty she became both “Perfect” and “Popular.” There was another “P-word” she became in the bible verse, following her becoming “Perfect and Popular:” — she became “Prostitute.”

When she was just perfect and popular, she was still faithful; but as soon as she put her faith (trust) in her perfect beauty, placing her faith in her perfection or in her popularity meant losing her faith in her faithfulness to the Lord or her Husband: Thus, she became “Unfaithful” or “Infidel” because of where her faith lies.

It did not come by Her losing faith in her Husband, but by her putting faith in or on her beauty and influence as Celebrity and queen worldwide. Suddenly, it resulted in her losing faith in her Husband, and losing respect for Him as well, because she's now seeing herself outgrown Him in fame and acceptance worldwide. Suddenly, one Husband alone or her Husband's Body alone was not enough for her anymore. The idea or thought of having as many body counts as possible filled her, after all she's beautiful and would always have men and options: in her reasoning, “Why should I waste all these beauties and charms in settling for just one Body (Husband), when I can have a thousand and more bodies to explore and to enjoy their diverse energies?” She then decided to explore as many men that passes by, who are bold to just as her for it and she would willing give him.

[Isaiah 1:21 BSB] — "See how the faithful city has become a harlot! She once was full of justice; righteousness resided within her, but now only murderers!”

That was how she who was married as a virgin later turned out to become LovePeddler, harlot or street prostitute, looking for passers by.

[Proverbs 9:13-18 NLV] — "A foolish woman makes much noise. She is open to sin, and knows nothing. She sits at the door of her house or on a seat in the high places of the city. She calls to those who pass by and are making their paths straight, "Whoever is easy to fool, let him turn in here!" She says to the one without understanding, "Stolen water is sweet. And bread eaten in secret is pleasing." But he does not know that the dead are there, and that the ones who visit her are in the bottom of hell.”

[Daniel 10:15] — "By speaking these words to me, I had my head paralyzed so that my face was frozen by being stuck towards the ground (unable to turn or swing), and my neck so choked that I became speechless or mute."

↝ STROKE THAT BENT AND CHOKED DANIEL BY NECK ↜

[Daniel 10:15 AFV] — "And when he had spoken such words to me, I bowed my face toward the ground, and I became dumb."
⇵
[Daniel 10:15 NEB] — "While he spoke to me I hung my head and was struck dumb."
⇵
[Daniel 10:15] — "By speaking these words to me, I had my head paralyzed so that my face was frozen by being stuck towards the ground (unable to turn or swing), and my neck so choked that I became speechless or mute."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

These here, in this bible verse in red, described the last stroke of the “Disfiguration” (instead of Transfiguration) that struck Daniel in that encounter with a manifest Principality visibly (physically).

However, unlike the previous, this disfigurement came upon Daniel later or after sometime of already adjusting to, and getting used to, bearing the presence and enduring the intensity of the aura from this Principality with golden waist belt.

○ - ● -A- ● - ○ What Daniel was seeing on this Principality was the cause of the initial disfiguration Daniel suffered, which included — His comeliness (beauty or visage) was corrupted into ugliness, and his strength drained, so he emaciated according to “Verse 8.”

○ - ● -B- ● - ○ What Daniel just heard from this Principality was the cause of this trending disfiguration Daniel suffered, which included — His head was hanged on his neck as if he was dead while on a standing or sitting posture, or as a man sleeping in such posture with his face downwards while his neck or body is upwards; and there was also a choking or freezing of his vocal cords in his neck so that he couldn't speak or even cryout like one strangled in prowrestling submission by choking of neck until such person passes out: These according to this bible verse in red.

You may recall the first case brought to the Lord Jesus Christ immediately He and His three core disciples came down from His Transfiguration: — It was a case of disfiguration of a deaf and dumb spirit, which also choked and shocked the victimised boy with epilepsy or seizures. It was the same demon or spirit that the Lord Jesus taught His disciples saying, “This kind does not go unless by prayer and fasting.” That evil spirit was like a higher kind of demon, than the other ones they had encountered. The Lord Jesus addressed the demon as “You deaf and dumb spirit:” infact let me cite the bible text here below:

[Mark 9:25-29 AKJV] — "When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, “You dumb and deaf spirit, I charge you, come out of him, and enter no more into him.” And the spirit cried, and rent him sore, and came out of him: and he was as one dead; so that many said, “He is dead.” But Jesus took him by the hand, and lifted him up; and he arose. And when He was come into the house, His disciples asked Him privately, “Why could not we cast him out?” And He said to them, “This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.”

Notice that even though He addressed the foul spirit as “Deaf (and dumb) spirit,” He still spoke to that deaf spirit with authority or faith, knowing that evil spirit of the deaf will hear His words spoken to them. Notice also that even though He addressed the foul spirit inside the boy as “Dumb (and deaf) spirit,” yet the spirit cried out, shouted or spoke outloud though was a dumb spirit. Notice in the preceding verses, the father of the boy did not mention anything about the boy being either deaf or dumb in connection with the foul spirit, but yet the Lord Jesus addressed the foul spirit as “Deaf and Dumb spirit” to which He commanded.

Technically, the foul spirit was deaf to what other disciples were saying or commanding it, but not deaf to what the Lord ordered it; and was dumb to speak to other disciples, but not to the Lord. There was connection between what it’s hearing and it’s speaking.

Now back to the bible verse in red:

The disfiguration or dislocation of Daniel’s neck and vocal ability resulted from, or connected with, the words that Prince with golden waist belt spoke to him about “what shall befall his people in the last days.” As the Principality was speaking to him about what shall befall his people in distant times, things instantly befell him in the interim. The “badnews” caused him that stroke. Not that it would end in badnews but that he was not having the capacity to bear such news at his condition by then, since he was already drained of strength and had been mourning for long.

These next bible references are about things that befell some by just hearing badnews of what had befallen their people, while they were in no conditions to bear the hearing of such badnews:

[b][1 Samuel 4:15-22 WEB] — "Now Eli was ninety-eight years old. His eyes were set, so that he could not see. The man said to Eli, “I am he who came out of the army, and I fled today out of the army.” He said, “How did the matter go, my son?” He who brought the news answered, “Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been also a great slaughter among the people. Your two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and God’s ark has been captured.” When he made mention of God’s ark, Eli fell from off his seat backward by the side of the gate; and his neck broke, and he died; for he was an old man, and heavy. He had judged Israel forty years. His daughter-in-law, Phinehas’ wife, was with child, near to be delivered. When she heard the news that God’s ark was taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and gave birth; for her pains came on her. About the time of her death the women who stood by her said to her, “Don’t be afraid; for you have given birth to a son.” But she didn’t answer, neither did she regard it. She named the child Ichabod, saying, “The glory has departed from Israel”; because God’s ark was taken, and because of her father-in-law and her husband. She said, “The glory has departed from Israel; for God’s ark has been taken.””
[/b]
[1 Samuel 25:37-38 AFV] — "And it came to pass in the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal and his wife had told him these things, his heart died within him and he became like a stone. And it came to pass about ten days afterward the LORD struck Nabal so that he died.”

Do you see the wisdom of God revealing similar news of “What shall befall your people in future” to Abraham while Abraham was sleeping, avoiding these complications we now see in Daniel, who received this while awake a similar news Abraham received while in deep sleep concerning what shall befall “your people in future, but you would by then died in peace and buried when those things happen to your people or your descendants?

[Genesis 15:12-16] — "As the sun was setting, Abraham fell into a deep sleep, and suddenly great terror and darkness overwhelmed him. Then the LORD said to Abraham, “Know for certain that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years. But I will judge the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will depart with many possessions. You, however, will go to your fathers in peace and be buried at a ripe old age. In the fourth generation your descendants will return here, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete.””

But here, the Principality had only began to speak on what shall happen to Daniel’s people, and had not yet assured Daniel that he would die and be buried in peace by then, before these happened. It was towards the end of tell Daniel all these that he later assured Daniel that he would have escaped by having died or be buried before those things befall his people. This assurance he made to Daniel became the very last sentence or verse in the book of Daniel, assuring Daniel would be in place when those things come

[Daniel 12:13 LG] — But you, go your way, and rest; for there are yet days and seasons to the fulfillment of the end; and you shall stand in your inheritance at the end of the days.”

↝ GET UNDERSTANDING
BEFORE AND AFTER
GETTING VISION ↜

[Daniel 10:14 AMPC] — Now I have come to make you understand what is to befall your people in the latter days, for the vision is for [many] days yet to come.
⇵
[Daniel 10:14 GNT] — I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the future. This is a vision about the future.
⇵
[Daniel 10:14 GWN] — "I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the last days, because the vision is about times still to come.""

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

Here in this bible verse in red, the Principality with golden waist belt stated a purpose for his coming. This has both the prayers of Daniel and the answers to his prayers: — To humble himself to understand the Vision.

Again, I say, the Prince of Persia did not oppose or block this Prince just to stop him from giving understanding of vision to Daniel or against any prayer request of Daniel. I don't know where that notion sprung from — that the Prince of Persia was opposing Daniel’s prayers by opposing the angel bearing his prayers.

Ignorance appears like knowledge at first to the ignorant or deceived: for Ignorance is counterfeit or false knowledge that distracts or preoccupies the place for truth and true knowledge.

But learning from Daniel is to humble oneself to understand. Daniel was a very sound and intelligent person, vast in various fields of knowledge, and a great researcher. Spiritually, he had understanding in visions and dreams and mysteries to degrees that the wise men of the East and of Babylonia gave him title or name, “Belteshazzar” — meaning wisdom of the gods. But behold, after attaining such vast degrees of knowledge, understanding or enlightenment, Daniel humbled himself before his God to seek knowledge and understanding.

[1 Corinthians 8:1-2] — "Now as touching things offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but charity edifies. And if any man think that he knows any thing, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.”

Indeed knowledge puffs, and as you advance deeper in revelations and knowledge of the mysteries of God, you realise that the more you supposedly thought you know, the more you are yet to know. Thus the wisehearted would humble themselves to seek understanding and knowledge that come from direct tutelage of Divinity, Principality and the perfected spirits of men.

Now, in this bible verse in red:

The Prince with golden waist belt promised he came, not really to explain the entire Vision to Daniel, but to explain the aspect of the vision that would befall or happen to Daniel’s people — Israel, in the endtimes or last days; especially because the vision is for many days stretched to latter or last days. Here are my deductions from these:

■1■ Daniel’s understanding of the vision would cover just his understanding of what will happen to, and what will become of, Israel his people: — Not necessarily what will entirely happen. — Understanding everything that will happen before they happen makes you the man who saw tomorrow and all things therein. But we are not called to know all things to come; rather we are called be watchmen who's job is to watch out for our people, our families, our interests etc., things that may potentially affect us. It is the knowledge or understanding to love or serve your people in the will and pleasure of God you should seek, not just knowledge or understanding of all things that do not concern you or your people — since you are not omniscient or “All-Knowing.” Solomon was not asking for wisdom or understanding of all things, but was asking for wisdom or understanding that concerns his people and how to govern them and things affecting or pertaining his people.

■2■ Daniel’s understanding of the vision will also cover what will befall his people in the last days or in distant future: this makes this understanding to also qualify as both Prophecies and the Watchman’s Witnessing, Testimony or Report: — Daniel wasn't just receiving prophecies as messages, but receiving insight and understanding that became both Prophecies and the Watchman’s Warnings, Signalling and Trumpeting (whistling). Before that generation of his people would be born, Daniel’s watchman’s outcry had already been written and preserved to forewarn and forearm the wise among them and among us.

Prophecies and understanding go together: understanding that goes or comes with Prophecies is called “Interpretation.” Do not just prophesy without the understanding (Interpretation) or the interpreter.

[Daniel 12:1 GNT]
— The angel wearing linen clothes said, “At that time the great angel Michael, who guards your people, will appear. Then there will be a time of troubles, the worst since nations first came into existence. When that time comes, all the people of your nation whose names are written in God's book will be saved.

[Jude 1:9] "Now when Michael, one of the chief angels, was fighting against the Evil One for the body of Moses, fearing to make use of violent words against him, he only said, May the Lord be your judge."

↝ THE PRINCE OF PERSIA AND PRINCIPALITIES WARS ↜

[Daniel 10:13 NKJV] — But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.
⇵
[Daniel 10:13 ICB] — But the prince of Persia has been fighting against me for 21 days. Then Michael, one of the most important angels, came to help me. He came because I had been left there with the king of Persia.
⇵
[Daniel 10:13 FBV] — "But the prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed me for twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was being detained there by the kings of Persia."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

Here in this bible verse in red, the Principality was explaining to Daniel the reason for the lateness, including the cause and extent of the traffic hold-up (that lasted 21 days) on his way to deliver the answers to the heard words (prayers) of Daniel. According to his excuse, the cause of the hold-up delay was opposition of the Prince of the kingdom of Persia against him, while the extent of the delay was twenty-one days (three weeks) of his detention.

However, the person that was more disappointed with all these, and especially with the duration of the delay, was not Daniel but the Principality himself: he had his own fightback against the Prince of Persia, but he had inexpressed disappointment towards his fellas or colleagues who did not come to help him out, until Michael (one of the chief Principalities) came on the 21st day to help him. It's like a saying,
“Evil thrives because the good people refuse or neglect to act and do goodworks to preempt the evils.”

It shouldn't have taken up to 21 days of detention if those other chief princes like Michael and princes among angels quickly came that first day or earlier to help one of their own on God's mission. I have seen, and I still do see, such fakeness, gross insensitivity, selfishness, falsehood and untrustworthiness of lack of true love and kindness among mankind. But to see those things also among the angels of God is more heart rending to me.

I wish I saw wrongly, and that those imperfections are not found among the angels of light and of God. I wish I was wrong to have the impression that I shouldn't even entrust myself to angels of God, especially those of them that carry out their goodworks only because they are commanded or duty-bound to do them and not because they have love or true friendship in them for me outside their official programs or duties as robots or artificial intelligence.

It is the lack of true friendship, lack of true compassion, lack of true patriotism or compatriotism (on national regards), lack of true neighborliness or brotherliness, lack of selflessness and true kindness, or lack of true love, that I lament against. How can an angel and minister of God on the Lord's mission be in detention suffering opposition for 21 days, and the entire heavenly angels and fella of his showed no affection until Michael, one of the chief princes, came of his own initiative and sensitivity to help him?

[Daniel 10:21 FBV] — "But before that I will tell you what is written down in the Book of Truth. No one helps me fight against these princes except Michael your prince.””

Now I can focus on the bible verse in red:

●1●— Principalities and Rulers of this world:

In the bible verse in red, the Prince of Persia actually refers to the “Prince of the kingdom of Persia” — for even in the same verse, there were also “Kings of Persia” among whom the Prince with golden waist belt was detained. Actually, here the Prince is higher than the kings; unlike how humans rank the title of a king above the title of prince always, among angels the Prince maybe above the kings: for “Prince” means “Principality,” but “Kings” means “Rulers.” So, here the Prince of Persia is the head of the kings of Persia or head of the kingdom of Persia. He was the Prince of the kings of Persia, even as the Lord Jesus Christ is now the Prince of the kings of the earth. The Lord Jesus Christ is not the Prince of this world, but He is the Prince of the Kings of the earth:

[Revelation 1:5-6 AKJV] — "And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful Witness, and the first Begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth. To Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own Blood, and has made us kings and priests to God and His Father; to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.”

Also, the Lord is not God of this world, but He is God of the earth [Revelation 11:4 AKJV].

Princes of this world, gods of this world or Rulers of darkness of this world are like the Prince and kings of Persia then: they are Principalities and powers in opposition to the Lord of the earth. So also are the rulers of darkness of this world and the spiritual wickedness in high places or in the space over this world. Actually, Prince of Persia is one of the princes of this world that foolishly crucified the Lord of glory [1 Corinthians 2:8 AKJV]

But he was not the Prince of this world during the walk of the Lord Jesus Christ on earth, though he was one of the princes of this world. In the gospels, two of the prominent princes of darkness were mentioned:

One was “Beelzebub” — Prince of Demons (Mark 3:22)

Another “Prince of this world” (John 14:30)

To further describe the Prince of this world, he is the Prince of the powers of the air and the spirit (demon) working in the children of disobedience.

[Ephesians 2:2 AFV] — "In which you walked in times past according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now working within the children of disobedience;”

●2●— Principalities and Rulers among Angels of God:

In the bible verse in red, Principalities or Princes among angels of God in heaven were also mentioned. The Prince with the golden waist belt himself was a Principality but held 21 days, and Michael too was one of the chief princes or one of the chief Principalities, but there are other chief Principalities or chief princes that are not Michael. Michael is an Archangel, and one of the Archangels.

Just as the Prince of the kingdom of Persia is in charge over Persia, Michael is the Prince of the people of Israel (as in Iran (Persia) and Israel in recent wars): There is another Prince in charge of Greece called the Prince of Grecia, Etc. Basically, there are seven different Principalities or Angels in charge of the seven different Churches in administrations: and Michael is the Angel in charge of the church of Israel.

Now, just as this angelic Prince with golden waist belt suffered opposition and detention from the powers of Persia until Michael came to help him in the fight, there was occasion that reverse was the case and it was Michael in trouble needing help and this Prince with golden waist belt was the one that helped Michael too. In prowrestling terms, I would describe both of these (Michael and the Prince with golden waist belt) as Tag-Team Princes or Tag Partners in the Warfare.

But Michael do also suffer opposition or resistance like this alone:

[Jude 1:9 BBE] — "Now when Michael, one of the chief angels, was fighting against the Evil One for the body of Moses, fearing to make use of violent words against him, he only said, May the Lord be your judge.”

Next::::

●3●— The Bone of Contention:

You just read that Michael was in contention against the devil, but for the body of Moses. All the fights Michael involved in the bible was for someone in Israel or for Israel, including fighting for Moses, helping out this Prince with golden waist belt for Daniel who was an Israelite, and fighting against the Dragon in Revelation 12 to protect the Child born of the Woman that represented Israel.

[Daniel 12:1 GNT] — The angel wearing linen clothes said, “At that time the great angel Michael, who guards your people, will appear. Then there will be a time of troubles, the worst since nations first came into existence. When that time comes, all the people of your nation whose names are written in God's book will be saved.

So we know Michael's interest in basically any warfare he engages but yet to know his Tag Partner's interest or charge in warfares.

Why was the Prince of Persia opposing the Prince with golden waist belt, and opposing his mission to Daniel? Is it just because they had no other important work to do except to oppose every prayer answers or angels on good mission from heaven to earth?

I tell you, the Prince of Persia here was not in opposition to the words or prayers of Daniel or anyone's prayers, contrary to what you may have been told. Rather, the Prince of Persia was actually in opposition to the main mission that Prince with golden waist belt came to do on earth by that journey. Apart from coming to answer Daniel’s prayers, that Prince with golden waist belt had other mission to do, which would affect or drain the times and reigns of the Kingdom of Persia. So the Prince of Persia was actually fighting for his own kingdom of Persia, and the mission of the Golden waist belt holder was a great threat to the kingdom of Persia, like some form of spy entering one's airspace or country under the disguise of coming to answer Daniel’s prayers but undercover is another mission that would begin the process for ending the kingdom of Persia when the kingdom just started.

Now, if it was Gabriel or any other angel that was sent to Daniel in answer to his words or prayers then, I tell you that the Prince of Persia would not care about even confronting that angel talkless of opposing and detaining the angel. Answering Daniel’s prayers was not a threat to the prince of Persia, but instead answering Daniel’s prayers was great benefit to the kings of Persia. Daniel was not an enemy to the prince or Principalities of Persia; neither were they in opposition to Daniel or his mission or for his people then. But on the other hand, the Prince with the golden waist belt coming himself instead of another angelic being, was a great threat and danger to the Kingdom of Persia but in favor to the kingdom of Greece or Grecia (Europe) then.

As we proceed in subsequent verses in red, we will understand the influence and effects this Prince with golden waist belt caused on “Changing of Governments or overthrowing of kingdoms and setting up others instead, through his command over times and seasons.” At some point, this Prince with golden waist belt determined even the times and seasons for the endtime events, antichrist days of reign, and times or days for the fulfilling of Prophecies. — He was a great Timer, Time-Keeper, Prince of the Kingdoms Time allocations or the great events time planning and scheduling Director.

Recall how when Demons saw the Lord Jesus on earth, they were alarmed thinking He had come to destroy them before their time. Seeing the Son of God on earth would threaten the Prince of Persia with fears of destruction either before their time or at the end of their time; but seeing that Prince with golden waist belt on earth would threaten the Prince of Persia or any other reigning princes of this world with shortening or changing of reigning days or times.

At those levels, having time means having place: losing your time means losing your place or your position in kingdom. So being in power or government is basically a tenor — time of your reign.

■■ When the devil contend Michael over the body of Moses, the devil was contending for a body that could no longer be affected or depreciated by time changes, as in, immortal body (of Moses).

■■ When the devil fought Michael over the body of a new born male child in Revelation-12, the devil was fighting for a kingdom that could no longer be affected or depreciated by time changes, as in, an everlasting kingdom without end (of Christ). The devil or dragon lost that fight, meaning he lost his last shot at gaining time and therefore he had no more place in the heavens; and on earth he had only a short time left before he also loses his time or place.

■■ When the Prince of the kingdom of Persia opposed and detained the Prince with the golden waist belt, he was fighting for the prolonging of his kingdom times by keeping the Prince from reaching earthrealm and from being witnessed by a man on earth. The Prince of Persia eventually lost that fight, and therefore the fate of his kingdom of Persia was taken away from him and given to the Prince of Grecia, just as during the handwriting on the wall the kingdom was taken away from Prince of Babylonia and given to the Prince of Persia.

Judg 13:8-9: "Then Manoah prayed to the LORD, “Please, O Lord, let the man of God You sent us come to us again to teach us how to raise the boy who is to be born.” And God listened to the voice of Manoah, and the angel of God returned to the woman as she was sitting in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her."

Luk 1:13: "But the angel said to him, Fear not, Zacharias: for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elisabeth shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name John."

↝ THE FEAR NOT AND THE HEARD WORDS OF DANIEL↜

[Daniel 10:12 AKJV] — "Then said he to me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that you did set your heart to understand, and to chasten yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I am come for your words."
⇵
[Daniel 10:12 GNT] — Then he said, “Daniel, don't be afraid. God has heard your prayers ever since the first day you decided to humble yourself in order to gain understanding. I have come in answer to your prayer.
⇵
[Daniel 10:12 BSB] — "“Do not be afraid, Daniel,” he said, “for from the first day that you purposed to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

You don't have to shout aloud to be heard by the Lord God and by His heavens. Yes, the heavens abound with loud voices, thunders, shouts, voices of many or voices of multitude, roars etc. But these great and loud voices do not necessarily imply that little still and small voices or even voiceless thoughts are not heard audibly and loudly as well among them. It is for ornamentation, glorification and majestic vibes. Such loud voices would not be necessarily for just hearing alone, because the heavens are neither deaf nor of heavy ears to hear things spoken even without voice or with no sound to the spoken speech. The heavens are very sensitive in hearing and perception, even to degrees that hidden thoughts are like open broadcast. Among them is, “You have said in your heart.”

In this bible verse in red, a heavens’ messenger with mighty Voice of multitude is testifying to an earth man with relatively little or no voice loud enough for such distant heavens apart, that the man's words were heard among the heavens from the very first day the man proposed in his heart to understand and to humble or chastise (discipline) himself before the Lord his God. Mystery, but also gospel, that those who command and communicate with the greatest and loudest voices also sense, hear, perceive and respect the tiniest voice and the voiceless words of a man's heart set before God.

I said it as general gospel to all, but in this bible verse in red it was specifically to Daniel or to those who have built such relationship with the Lord God as Daniel here. So, let's split some fragments of the bible verse in red in such ways as to show out ‘Daniel’ in them.

■1■ The name and person “Daniel” (not “whosoever”) is the one to whom these were addressed to:

This Principality mentioned Daniel by name atleast Four times in that one manifest vision and communication with him; this bible verse in red holds the second time he had addressed Daniel by the name Daniel. Recall, I said, he received this revelation with the name the heavens recognise for him, which is, Daniel; and not the other name which he was popularly known or called among men of his time and neighbourhood then, which was, Belteshazzar.

■2■ He said “Daniel, fear not (don't be afraid);” And not, “sons of men, fear not (don't be afraid):”

The same Principality here who does not want Daniel to fear or be afraid, also struck great fear on those who were with Daniel. “Fear not” (be not afraid) is not usually a general statement to all men or women in the manifest presence or revelation of angels to men; rather, “Fear not” (be not afraid) is for specific persons in specific places and times during interactions with the Lord or with Angels.

■3■ He said “Daniel, fear not (don't be afraid); your prayer is heard (from the first day you decided to understand and to humble yourself before your God).” Even these do not apply to all:

I know two other people or places in the bible used to this express words from angels, Fear not, your prayer (word or voice) is heard.

To Hagar concerning Ishmael, an angel said this:

[Genesis 21:17] — "And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, What ails you, Hagar? fear not; for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.”

To Zechariah concerning Elizabet, an Gabriel said this:

[Luke 1:13] — "But the angel said to him, Fear not, Zechariah: for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elisabeth shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name John."

But in this case of Daniel in the bible verse in red, it was more because it was “Your words” (plural) or “Your Prayers” were heard, and not just singular word or prayer is heard as in the case of Zechariah or Hagar. So Daniel’s “Fear not” carried more weight, for all the words or prayers of Daniel were altogether heard.

Angels are involved in our prayers getting to God, and His answer or response for those prayers back to us. Recall how Bartimaeus the blind man was praying to the Lord Jesus for mercy: many of the men there that should play the role of angels of God to take his prayer request to the Lord Jesus were instead playing the role of demons in trying to silence the man from praying outloud. But the man became even louder like a morning cry Evangelist that men tried to silence but she became even louder in outcry. Then the Lord heard his voice and paid attention, calling for his attendance: immediately, men switched from the role of demons into now playing the role of angels of God, saying to the man, fear not (be of good cheer) your voice is heard and the Lord is calling for you.

[Mark 10:47-49 BSB] — "When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Many people admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called the blind man. “Take courage!” they said. “Get up! He is calling for you.””

Don't be surprised if someone from the Lord's disciples then was among those that tried to silence him initially, perhaps in zeal for the Lord but without knowledge. Recall how they even asked the Lord to send that Canaanite woman away, for she was crying after them for the Lord Jesus to heal or deliver her daughter. Angels of God do not act like demons to keep praying seekers away from God, no matter how busy God their Lord is. Here on earth among us, there are people who would not allow seekers to meet their pastors, their bosses in office, their masters/mistresses, etc, as in claiming they are busy or not available for them to meet based on their low class appearance or underrating of such seekers, thus playing the role of demons, obstacles or stumbling blocks. But the true angels of God love it when even the poor and the unworthy people seek after the greatest and highest King and Most High, no matter how much busy they see He is or even how busy they themselves are. Men ought always to pray, even with importunity.

But why “Fear not (be not afraid), because your word, voice or prayer is heard?”

Be careful, the last angel, Gabriel, I cited as used that expression to a man who's prayer was answered, still struck the same man with Dumbness afterwards for the man questioned the Angel's gospel. So, that angel told the man not to fear in his presence, but he still struck the same man for not fearing to disrespect such an angel.

Therefore, even when Angels tell you, “Fear not (be not afraid)” your word or prayer is heard,” still retain some degree of fear to keep your respect or regards for them and more importantly for fear of God before them. “Fear not still means fear God.”

Actually, “Fear not” from the heavens or angels of God simply means “Goodnews” or “Gospel” — Hope, expected end or positive outcome: The corresponding response or reaction such “Fear not” requires from you is called “Only Believe.” Zechariah, by doubting the goodnews or gospel was not even responding well to the “Fear not,” which required, “only believe.”

[Luke 8:50 ABU] — "But Jesus hearing it, answered him: Fear not; only believe, and she shall be restored.”

■4■ He said (to Daniel) “...from the very first day you proposed in your heart to understand, and to chasten or humble yourself before your God, your words were heard:”

Notice, he did not say from the first day you began to speak those words or speak in tongues, your words were heard. It was not Daniel’s speaking of those words that got “Your words were heard” to him; neither was Daniel speaking in tongues, seeing he set his heart to understand and not to speak mysteries he cannot understand: You aren't heard by much speaking or even speaking:

[Matthew 6:7-8 AFV] — "And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions, as the heathen do; for they think that by multiplying their words they shall be heard. Now then, do not be like them; for your Father knows what things you have need of before you ask Him.”

It was not “much speaking” that got Daniel’s words to be heard; rather what got the words (plural) of Daniel heard was the person of Daniel ruling (subduing) the heart of Daniel to understand and ruling (subduing) flesh (body) of Daniel to be afflicted, humbled or chastened before his God.

Daniel subdued/subjected his heart to learning or understanding spiritual things, and subjected his body or flesh to humiliation or mourning for the said purpose. The mechanism here works like how the voices (cries) of the oppressed get more magnified or amplified before God and the heavens; except that in this case, the oppressed here was the heart of Daniel and the flesh (body) of Daniel, whom the Lord and the heavens greatly loved or respected

The first time I read of Daniel doing similar things to his heart and body was when Daniel proposed in his heart to not defile himself with the portion of the king's fried or cooked meat and the king’s great wine or juice in “Daniel 1:8.” Then Daniel did that just to not defile himself; but here Daniel did it just to learn, to understand and to humble himself before his God. And for the worth of every single word of the words of Daniel, the heavens quickly heard the words of Daniel in that same first day, and a very high Principality was sent from to honor the words of Daniel on earth.

Behold, for understanding and for humility, Daniel gave such diligence to add to his virtues:

[2 Peter 1:5-8,10 AFV] — "And for this very reason also, having applied all diligence besides, add to your faith, virtue; and to virtue, knowledge; And to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, endurance; and to endurance, godliness; And to godliness, brotherly love; and to brotherly love, the love of God. For if these things exist and abound in you, they will cause you to be neither lacking effort nor lacking fruit in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. … For this reason, brethren, be even more diligent to make your calling and election sure; because if you are doing these things, you will never fall at any time.”

■5■ He said (to Daniel) “...to humble yourself before your God..:”

Even a Principality from heaven refered to the Lord as “Daniel’s God” or “God of Daniel.” Stop using, “My God delivered Daniel” for it is not “your God” that delivered Daniel; rather “Daniel’s God” delivered Daniel and heard the words of Daniel. Even this great Principality or Entity respected Daniel’s relationship with his God.

■6■ “I (the Principality or Angel) come in response or answer to your words or prayers:

Some people have prayed that God would send angel to them physically, and God heard them and made angel come to them face to face:

[Judges 13:8-9 BSB] — "Then Manoah prayed to the LORD, “Please, O Lord, let the man of God You sent us come to us again to teach us how to raise the boy who is to be born.” And God listened to the voice of Manoah, and the angel of God returned to the woman as she was sitting in the field; but her husband Manoah was not with her.”

Some others did not expressly prayed for angels to come to them, and yet angels came in response or answer to their prayers, as in this bible verse in red. I don't think Daniel specifically asked for angels to appear or come to Him before they came. Even Manoah, who prayed for the angel to come before the Lord granted the prayer request, did not know the man of God was an angel. To me, it's easier to pray for angels to come to me and they come, than to pray for a man of God among men to come me and they come without me booking a classy hotel, paying consulting fee, preparing logistics packages and offerings, etc for the man of God.

Nevertheless, to see an angel or angels, do not just pray to see them but rather pray to see visions, revelations or experience spiritual, hidden or heavenly things: and when God answers such prayers, you will also see angels so easily; for to see such things requires seeing angels as well: for the angels will show them to you, or by seeing the Lord God Himself or the Lord Jesus Christ.

Jn 5:20: "For the Father loves the Son, and reveals to him everything he does; and the Father will show to him even more incredible things that will completely amaze you."

↝ OUT OF GREAT LOVE AND RESPECT FOR DANIEL ↜

[Daniel 10:11 NKJV] — And he said to me, “O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you.” While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling.
⇵
[Daniel 10:11 ICB] — The man in the vision said to me, “Daniel, God loves you very much. Think very carefully about the words I will speak to you. Stand up because I have been sent to you.” And when he said this, I stood up. I was still shaking.
⇵
[Daniel 10:11 NLV] — "And he said to me, "O Daniel, you who are loved very much, understand what I am about to tell you, and stand up. For I have now been sent to you." When he said this to me, I stood up shaking in fear."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

Sometimes, when Angels of God are sent to men on earth in the battle, those Angels carry out their assigned duties out of their obligations or tasks they are charged with concerning those men. But from some of them, like this one in the bible verse in red, one can tell they are doing their tasks and relation with the men both out of duties and out of their love and respect for these men also.

You see this principal angel here revealed how much Daniel is loved even before disclosing his duty or assignment for which he was sent to Daniel. He put love for Daniel ahead of his duty for Daniel, not duty ahead of love or duty without love. He showed Daniel was greatly beloved or loved, before asking he who is greatly beloved to pay attention to his ministry and message he was sent to him for.

Someone said this to express the same point I intend here:
“People may not care how much you know, until they know how much you care.”

Like this Principal angel in this bible verse in red:

-A- You may have to touch them (as this angel touched Daniel in preceding verse to awoken or excite him), in showing you care;

-B- You may have to call them by their names (as this angel knew and mentioned Daniel by name), in showing you care;

-C- You may have to tell them how much God and the heavens love and respect them (as this angel revealed, not how much title, rank or respect he himself commands, but putting the focus on the feeble Daniel and showing how much the feeble or fearful Daniel is greatly loved and highly esteemed), in showing you care. The angel here did not begin to introduce himself as “Arch–” or “Title” as in “Archangel, Archbishop, etc.” infact, as great as the angel was he did not even mention his own name, title, or authority he has in the heavens among angels or before God, not even introduction of himself: Rather, the great Prince (angel) was focused on the name of fainted or feeble Daniel and showing of the great love (great respect) that Daniel had before God and angels in heaven. Do you see these things?

-D- It's after this great Prince and Minister of God has shown so much care, love and respect to Daniel, that he appealed to Daniel’s attention and attendance to his words or messages.

-E- And though this great figure had the power, authority and the voice of multitude to command Daniel to stand up and Daniel must stand up, he was rather using psychological “Engagement” or “Motivation” to make Daniel stand up instead of using force to achieve the upstanding of Daniel. You know there are people who by the way they would have spoken to you, if they tell you to stand you will make yourself to stand; and there are other people you may not stand up for, even if they invoke their authority over you.

To be frank, I myself do not even practice these, and I haven't been great at these leadership qualities and of carrying people along as I outlined here concerning this great Prince and Minister of God from heaven to Daniel. There are pastors, ministers and leaders, among us that are far better at these qualities of carrying people along and caring for them before, during and after, their messages. Someone described me with this saying,
“He who is leading without anyone following him is just taking walk alone.”

I would just drop the messages, whether they hear or not, I would not care — showing I am more compelled by duty than by love for those to whom my messages were sent or meant for. Well, I do care, and I love to love those to whom I am sent. In anycase, the focus should be on this great Prince Angel and Minister of God, who knows both “Warfare” and “Welfare.” In Warfare, he is a great Warrior with Golden Belt around his waist, and in Welfare he knows how to care for and carry people along making them feel they really matter before making his messages for them to also matter to them.

As for Daniel:

The Lord greatly beloved Daniel, and this bible verse in red will help to expose how angels and Principalities of the heavens relate with men on earth who are greatly loved by God. We call John, “John the beloved” because he was known as the disciple whom the Lord Jesus loved; should we also call Daniel, “Daniel the beloved” according to this bible verse in red showing he's greatly beloved or loved by the Lord? No need, for no popular man again in the bible bore the name Daniel to warrant adding “the beloved” to his name, unlike in the case of John, one is “John the Baptist” and the other is “John the beloved.”

Well, both Daniel and John the beloved were both beloved special and were both given revelation of things to come in the endtimes or last days. The love of God brings revelations of God and angels to those whom the Lord beloved. From this bible verse in red only let's list 3 things to ministers whom the Lord God loves specially:

■1■ — To ministers God loves specially, He shows or reveals things — giving them revelations and visions of endtimes:

[John 5:20 FBV] — "For the Father loves the Son, and reveals to Him everything He does; and the Father will show to Him even more incredible things that will completely amaze you.”

■2■ — To ministers God loves specially, higher degrees or higher ranking angels, Principalities or Cherubim will reveal their body's surface anatomy to them face to face:

■2■ — To ministers God loves specially, higher degrees or higher ranking angels, Principalities or Cherubim will reveal to them.

Song 6:8-10: "There are sixty queens, and eighty concubines, and virgins without number. But My dove, My undefiled is one alone. She is the only one of her mother. She is the choice of her who bore her. The daughters saw her and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines saw her, and they praised her. Who is she who appears like the morning, fair as the moon, clear as the sun, awesome as an army with banners?"

↝ THE SPREAD AND THE CREDIT OF THE BRIDE'S BEAUTY ↜

[Ezekiel 16:14 AFV] — "And your name went out among the nations because of your beauty; for it was perfect through My splendor, which I had put on you,” says the Lord GOD."
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:14 BSB] — "Your fame spread among the nations on account of your beauty, for it was perfect in the splendor I bestowed on you, declares the Lord GOD."
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:14 GNT] — You became famous in every nation for your perfect beauty, because I was the one who made you so lovely.” This is what the Sovereign Lord says.

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

The Lord said that a city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Now this saying is not just applicable in the courses of Light, but also applicable in the courses of Splendor (Beauty). To have certain Light, Splendor or Beauty powered by the Lord on you is to be raised, elevated, exalted, exposed and announced to all nations, without you necessarily visiting or meeting those nations or people prior. Unless they are too blind to see, even as such lights, splendors, beauties are now abounding in abundance in the heavens, but the blind world cannot see or know them.

In this bible verse in red, the Bride of the Lord had a beauty and glory that could all be seen by all the nations, and not hidden to any even as the sun can be seen to all and not hidden to some. Two things from this bible verse in red:

■1■ — THE SPREAD OF HER BEAUTY — The Lord, Her Husband, wants the Bride’s beauty to spread abroad like the gospel to all nations:

There's an African adage that sounds like this:

"A man who marries a beautiful wife has no rest, like a man who plants a fruit tree by the roadside.”

It implies that marrying someone considered extremely beautiful may attract persistent attention from others to her, which can lead to anxiety or unrest for the spouse. In the Bible, we saw Abraham and Isaac had that fear because of their extremely beautiful wives, Sarah and Rebekah, especially when they were among other nations. They claimed their wives were their sisters, for fear of being killed for having such extremely beautiful wives among those nations.

Guess who in bible actually killed a man and took his extremely beautiful wife: — David, anointed king David, fulfilled that fear of killing a man and taking his extremely beautiful wife, Uriah's wife.

But in this bible verse in red, the Lord is more bold, than king Xerxes was bold when the king would bring out and display his extremely beautiful wife (Queen Vashti) before all officials, nobles and politicians, covering 127 provinces across the world, without fear of any of them attempting nonsense on or for his beautiful wife in “Esther 1.”

So, you now understand better what I mean by, “The Lord, Her Husband, wants Her beauty to spread abroad like the gospel to all nations.” He has no one to fear, and none to covet His Bride, but all to glorify Him through the beauty and elegance of His Bride.

"In the same way, let Her Beauty so outshine before men, that they may see Her Splendor and glorify Her Husband in Her.”

Next:

■2■ — THE CREDIT FOR HER BEAUTY — The Lord, Her Husband, makes the Bride the Most Beautiful in all nations and He perfects Her Beauty:

Understand that the Lord did not marry the most beautiful among women; rather He made whom He married the most beautiful among women. So, she was not always having that beauty in her, neither was she born so of her mother: Rather, the perfect beauty she attained was because of the Splendor (ornamentation) and investments the Lord God invested into Her according to the revelation of the Word of God declared in the bible verse in red.

— It is not, “Marry whom you love,” rather it is “Love whom you married.”

— It is not, “Marry the most beautiful woman you meet,” rather it is “transform or transfigure the woman you married into the most beautiful woman.”

— It is not, “Marry the richest lady,” rather it is “make the lady you you married the richest lady and queen of them all.”

He is testing His works out by looking for any competition among beauties that can even come close to match the perfect beauty He has built into Her. Who else is dragging the Crown of Beauty with Her in all nations of the earth? Where are the 3 daughters of Job?

[Job 42:14-15 AFV] — "And he called the name of the first, Jemimah; and the name of the second, Keziah; and the name of the third, Keren—Happuch. And in all the land there were not found women as beautiful as the daughters of Job. And their father gave them inheritance among their brothers.”

Daughters of Job, can you three combined together or multiplied by three match the Bride in beauty contest? Behold, even the combination or multiple of the beauties of 60 beautiful Queens, 80 beautiful concubines, uncountable beautiful virgins, altogether can still not be able to match the Perfect Beauty of the Bride.

[Song 6:8-10] — "There are sixty queens, and eighty concubines, and virgins without number. But My dove, My undefiled is one alone. She is the only one of her mother. She is the choice of her who bore her. The daughters saw her and blessed her; yea, the queens and the concubines saw her, and they praised her. Who is she who appears like the morning, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, awesome as an army in battle aray?”

[Psalms 27:4 AFV] — "One thing I have desired from the LORD, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in His temple,”

[Revelation 22:17 AFV] — "And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who thirsts come; and let the one who desires partake of the water of life freely.”

[2 Corinthians 11:2] — "For I am jealous over you with the jealousy of God because I have espoused you to one husband, so that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ."

↝ PRESENTABLE STATE OF THE BRIDE ↜

[Ezekiel 16:13 AFV] — "And you were adorned with gold and silver; and your clothing was of fine linen and silk and embroidered work. You ate fine flour and honey and oil; and you were exceedingly beautiful. And you advanced into a kingdom."
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:13 GWN] — "So you wore gold and silver jewelry. You were dressed in fine linen, silk, and embroidered clothes. Your food was flour, honey, and olive oil. You were very beautiful, and eventually you became a queen."
⇵
[Ezekiel 16:13 GNT] — You had ornaments of gold and silver, and you always wore clothes of embroidered linen and silk. You ate bread made from the best flour, and had honey and olive oil to eat. Your beauty was dazzling, and you became a queen.

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

From this bible verse in red, let's study “The Presentable State of the Bride” to the Lord and King and Her Husband. Presentation matters to presents and to presence with the Lord. It matters even more how the Lord's Bride is presented both to the Lord and to witnesses or watchers in attendance before the Lord. Presentation can make or mar acceptability: something presentable is most likely acceptable, and something unpresentable is most likely unacceptable. Therefore, present it both holy and acceptable to the Lord, which is your reasonable service.

[2 Corinthians 11:2 AFV] - "For I am jealous over you with the jealousy of God because I have espoused you to one husband, so that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.”

To show you how Presentability matters to the Bride and the King, the Lord, He told us in warning a parable in which a man came into the “Wedding Hall” without a wedding Garment or without being Presentable. Written:

[Matthew 22:11-14 AFV] — "And when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not dressed in proper attire for the wedding feast; And he said to him, ‘Friend, how did you enter here without a garment fit for the wedding feast?’ But he had no answer. Then the king said to the servants, ‘Bind his hands and feet, and take him away, and cast him into the outer darkness.’ There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen.””

In this reference, that penalised man was present in the King's presence or wedding, but he was not presentable. I know a man who a “Bouncer” at party turned back or refused him entering a night party simply because the man was not presentable (or not properly dressed to attend that event). He was present, but was not presentable.

Both Vashti (the first Queen) and Esther (the last Queen that replaced the first Queen, Vashti) committed a very grievous or deadly offence against their lord and husband that was also the king of kings then:

●A● — Queen Vashti's offence — was not appearing or presenting herself in her glory, beauty and presentable state, before the king (her husband) and before his lords and guests in attendance, especially when the king summoned the Queen to come and present herself then to them.

●B● — Queen Esther's offence — was appearing or presenting herself in her glory, beauty and presentable state, before the king (her husband) and before his lords and guests in attendance against the law, especially when the king did not summon the Queen to come and present herself then.

So, Esther's offence was like opposite to Vashti's offence, and even more deadlier than Vashti's offence. Here:

[b][Esther 4:11,16: 5:1-2 BSB] — “All the royal officials and the people of the king’s provinces know that one law applies to every man or woman who approaches the king in the inner court without being summoned—that he be put to death. Only if the king extends the gold scepter may that person live. But I have not been summoned to appear before the king for the past thirty days.” ... “Go and assemble all the Jews who can be found in Susa, and fast for me. Do not eat or drink for three days, night or day, and I and my maidens will fast as you do. After that, I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish!” On the third day, Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the palace across from the king’s quarters. The king was sitting on his royal throne in the royal courtroom, facing the entrance. As soon as the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, she found favor in his sight. The king extended the gold scepter in his hand toward Esther, and she approached and touched the tip of the scepter.[/b]

Esther was in jeopardy of breaking the law and of death by forcing herself into the King's presence without the King's invitation. But she was “Presentable” (for she changed from mourning or fasting attire into her Presentable state attire before she dared entered the King's presence). I will use this again later.

But compare the two bible references I have cited already here: You saw in one, a man had invitation to come and he came before the king at the wedding, but because he was not Presentable (though he was invited) he was cast out and enslaved with bonds and torments in outer darkness. On the other hand, the woman (the queen Esther) that had no invitation and broke the law to come into the King's presence, but was Presentable, had the king stretched out his scepter to save or acquit her of the offence, and even favored her with promising to give her anything she asked to half the kingdom.

Now, let's focus on the bible verse in red, while looking at “The Presentable State of the Bride” to the Lord and King. Before then, let me state that some of the things here that apply to the “Bride of Christ” here may not apply to the “Body of Christ.”

■1■ The Bride was adorned with gold and silver —

In the bible verse in red, the Bride was adorned, decked or ornamented with gold and silver. I already told you “Gold and Silver” here stand for ornaments or treasures for glory and for beauty. The Queen or the Bride must come into the King's presence in gold ornaments. Compulsory? Yes. If Her dressing is without Gold ornaments, she is not presentable before the king. Therefore it is written,

[Psalms 45:9,13 AFV] — "Kings’ daughters are among Your honorable women; on Your right hand stands the queen in gold from Ophir. … The king’s daughter is all glorious within; her clothing is trimmed with gold.”

To test this, Moses was commanded to dress the high priest (Aaron) with gold and silver jewelries (ornaments) for glory and for beauty, especially when the high priest would enter into the holy of holies. [See Exodus 28].

Now, in contrast to the Bride of Christ, the Body of Christ was told not to let their adornment or ornaments be that of outward wearing of gold or costly…. See:

[1 Timothy 2:9-10 AFV] — "In like manner also, let the women adorn themselves with clothing that shows modesty and discretion, not with elaborate braidings of the hair, or with gold, or pearls, or expensive apparel; But with that which is fitting for women who profess to have reverence for God— with good works.”

[1 Peter 3:3-5 AFV] — "Whose adorning, let it not be the external adornment of braiding the hair, or wearing gold jewelry, or dressing in costly clothing; But let your adornment be the inward person of the heart, manifested in the incorruptible jewel of a meek and quiet spirit, which is of great value in God’s sight. For in this way also the holy women of the past who hoped in God adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands;”

So, it's not compulsory for the body of Christ to wear gold ornaments before the Lord, but it is compulsory for the Bride of Christ to wear Gold ornaments before the Lord.

■2■ The Bride's clothing was of fine linen and silk and embroidered work —
In the bible verse in red, the Bride’s clothing was of fine linen and silk and embroidered work. It is compulsory for the Bride to come wearing embroidered work on her linen clothes. It not just She putting on fine linen, clean and white, but also she must have embroidered work on her clothing as the ornamentation on her clothing. Written:

[Psalms 45:13-14 AFV] — "The king’s daughter is all glorious within; her clothing is trimmed with gold. She shall be brought to the King in embroidered garments; the virgins, her companions who follow after her, shall be brought to You.”

Her wedding Garments or Presentable Garments must be of fine Linen and Silk and embroidered work. To test this, Moses was commanded to make embroidered works on the Garment and Ephod of the high priest (Aaron).

[Exodus 28:3-8 AFV] — "And you shall speak to all the wisehearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they make Aaron’s garments to consecrate him so that he may minister to Me in the priest’s office. And these are the garments which they shall make: a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and an embroidered coat, a miter, and a girdle. And they shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, and his sons, so that he may minister to Me in the priest’s office. And they shall take gold and blue and purple and scarlet and bleached linen. And they shall make the ephod of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet and fine-twined bleached linen, skilled work. It shall have the two shoulder pieces joined at the two edges of it. And so it shall be joined together. And the embroidered girdle of the ephod, which is upon it, shall be of the same, according to the work of it: of gold, blue, purple and scarlet, and finetwined bleached linen.”

These garments of the high priest or the Bride means three basic things: 1. The wearers are anointed priests to the Lord, 2. The wearers are clothed with holy garments, 3. The wearers are not mourning or weeping or sad.

They are Presentable Garments to both the High priest and the Bride, because both of these offices forbids mourning or weeping. The body of Christ may mourn or weep, but the Bride of Christ must never mourn or weep in Her being Presentable before the Lord. Aaron's two sons were just killed by the Lord, for they offered strange fire before the Lord; but Aaron could not Mourn or put on sack clothes (mourning clothes) especially because the presence of God was always there manifest, and he must not put off the high priest garments, lest he loses his Presentable state before the Lord.

You saw that even though Esther was mourning or fasting she had to switch into her royal or Presentable garments before appearing in the King's Presence.

The Lord Jesus could appear before God and the heavens the same way He was stained, as the Lamb was slain or crucified: He entered Holy of holies still bearing the blood, the wounds or marks of His sufferings, Mourning, weeping etc. But the Bride of Christ can not appear before God in anything lest than fine linen, embroidered works and silk. She must not even come wearing mantle of Humility or sack clothes: Rather She must be all glorious within and without, with garments of praise and joy.

[Ecclesiastes 9:7-8 AFV] — "Go your way, eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God now accepts your works. Let your garments be always white; and let your head lack no ointment.”

■3■ The Bride ate fine flour and honey and oil —
In the bible verse in red, the Bride also ate these food stuff that are meant for feasts. By default, these listed items of food are “Feast Foodstuffs:” Honey for juices of sweetness, and the flour and oil for confectioneries including bread, cakes etc.

They are not mourning food or food taken for bitterness. Basically, the Queen or Bride must not fast or mourn especially while the king Her Bridegroom is with Her.

[Matthew 9:15 AFV] — "And Jesus said to them, “Are the children of the bridechamber able to mourn while the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast."

See, the Bride eats of the Tree of Life and drinks of the Water of Life: and She calls together with the Spirit to whoever is willing to come drink of the water of Life.

[Revelation 22:17 AFV] — "And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who thirsts come; and let the one who desires partake of the water of life freely.”

■4■ The Bride was exceedingly beautiful —

Her charms are not deceitful, and Her beauty is not vain: — For She is beautiful for situation and She is the Joy of the whole earth.

Her being Presentable requires Her being beautiful in all ramifications of beauties, charms, favors, elegance and excellence.

[Psalms 50:2] — "Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty, God has shined forth.”

Don't forget, He made “Beauty” to dwell where He also dwells, which is, inside His Sanctuary or Holy Place. Beauty does not dwell in fairytale, or in hell, or with mermaid, or with the beast, or with devils, or with prostitutes: Rather, Beauty and Strength both dwells with the Lord God inside His Holy of Holies or His sanctuary. To look for beauty, do not go to cosmetic shops or beauty centres to look for beauty; rather go into the most holy place where God dwells and find beauty. As it is written,

[Psalms 96:6 GWN] "Splendor and majesty are in His presence. Strength and beauty are in His holy place."

Thus, beauty is called ‘Beauty of Holiness’ as in Holy place

[Psalms 29:2 AFV] — "Give to the LORD the glory due to His name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.”

Also called “Beauty of the Lord inside His House”

[Psalms 27:4 AFV] — "One thing I have desired from the LORD, that I will seek after: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD and to inquire in His temple,”

■5■ The Bride advanced into a kingdom. —

Thus, the Kingdom of Jerusalem. This also means she became the Queen, the City or Capital of the Kingdom of God and of the Lamb.

Her beauty contributed to the brightness of Her rising into becoming a Kingdom or Queen. And “Beauty” here is inseparable from the holiness of the Lord's Dwelling and Lord's Glory inside Her. His Holiness is the source of the rising Glory and Beauty inside Her.

If your gift made it into the Master's house, but failed to make it into the Master's use, you dishonor the Master's house because your gift makes the Master's house look like a warehouse or dumping site.

↝THE BRIDE AND THE LORD'S OFFERING↜

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

The Bride shall come to her celebrated state. She'll become the Celebrity Bride, the Queen, and advance to become a Kingdom — “The Kingdom of Jerusalem.”

See the future and high calling of the Lord for His Bride: Let's help ourselves to see these things better: I show you three of those perceptions I have seen concerning Her:

■1■ — The Bride will be the one Receiving all the Lord's Offerings: — I see even the Lord brought offerings and gifts to Her. — During Her time, offerings to the Lord will be brought to Her. She alone receives all offerings meant for the Lord or to the Lord, including the Lord Himself making offerings to Her.

No more giving offerings to priests, to pastors, to levites, to prophets or to any minister in the name of giving offering to the Lord God: Rather, all offerings to God are brought to Her. Any pastor, priest or person, receiving offerings on behalf of the Lord God shall be a robber, a thief or a fraud: — All offerings to the Lord come to Her.

However, at that time, offering will no longer be called “Offering” or “Sacrifice” or “Tithe.” The word “offering” will be replaced with the word “Bringing Glory” or “Bringing Honor.” For example: — The Nations or kings will bring their glory or Honor into Her means they will bring what used to be refered to as offerings or tithes into Her. But in the new earth, the word “tithes” has no place in it, and the word “offering” will be unworthy. Therefore, the acceptable terms to use is, “they shall bring their glory or honour into Her.” As it is written

[Revelation 21:24-26 AFV] — "And the nations that are saved shall walk in its light; and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honor into it. And its gates shall never be shut by day; for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it.”

■2■ — The Offerings [I mean the glory and honor] acceptable in the Bride must come in as Ornaments of Silver and Gold (Precious Stones, Ornaments of Glory).

Gold and Silver here do not mean “Money,” but means “Glory.” For example, the glory of the Latter House shall be greater than the former means the gold and silver of the Latter House shall be greater than the former, in this context. Here,
Glory = Gold + Silver
Gold + Silver = Glory

This is because Gold and silver are not just literal gold or silver, but refer to Ornaments, jewelries or treasures that store or emit glory, honor and grace. Notice how the Lord, when talking about glory, talked about gold and silver, as He promised the nations or kings will bring their glory (offerings) into the latter house:

[Haggai 2:7-9 BSB] — "I will shake all the nations, and they will come with all their treasures, and I will fill this house with glory, says the LORD of Hosts. The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine, declares the LORD of Hosts. The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former, says the LORD of Hosts. And in this place I will provide peace, declares the LORD of Hosts.””

So when I say bring your Gold and Silver into Her, I mean bring your glory into Her, but never bring your money into Her.

Don’t bring Money as offering to Her, neither give Her any thing that is exchangeable as medium of exchange, trade or transaction: Money is corruption to Her, and trading (transaction) is forbidden to Her. Do not even bring anything to Her with the mind of exchanging it for something else from Her, or give Her offering to buy Her blessing, favor or something in return for your offerings or gifts: that's is abominable to Her. Anything or offering you give Her with expectation of a reward or exchange from Her to you, such thing or offering is not pure because your mind has trading or transactional motive and thus it is not pure to Her.

[Act 8:20-21 AFV] — "But Peter said to him, “May your money be destroyed with you because you thought that the gift of God might be purchased with money. You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right before God.”

■3■ — Your works will be in your Offerings or Gifts to Her, but your works are not to feed Her, clothe Her or adorn Her — Those are Her Husband's duties: The Lord Himself will Build Her, Wash Her, Dress Her, Ornament Her and Feed Her, by Himself as Her Groom, Husband or Lord.

Just ensure your offerings meet the Master's use, not just meeting the Master's house: If your gift made it into the Master's house, but failed to make it into the Master's use, you dishonor the Master's house because your gift makes the Master's house look like a warehouse or dumping site.

[2 Timothy 2:20-21 MKJV] — "But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor. Therefore if anyone purges himself from these, he shall be a vessel to honor, sanctified and useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.”

Which one did she become first: The Body or the Bride?

↝TO CHRIST:— IS SHE THE BODY OR THE BRIDE? ↜

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

Paul the apostle of the Lord taught us in Scriptures, that the Church is the Body of Christ: — Paul unveiled this in revealing the mystery of marriage between Christ and His Church, given that the two became one Flesh or Body [Ephesians 5:30–32]. Thus, the Church is members of His Body, of His Flesh, of His Bones, and one spirit with Him.

But the same Paul had earlier written [in Ephesians 4] of the ministers gifted (Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors and Teachers) to the Church for the edifying (building) of the Body of Christ — to a “Perfect Man” and to “Measure of the Stature of the fullness of Christ.” [Ephesians 4:11-13].

My question to Paul here and there are these:

■1■ — Is the Church supposed to be built “To a Perfect Man (measuring up to the Stature of fullness of Christ)” or rather the Church is supposed to be built ‘To a Perfect Woman (measuring up to the Stature of Bonding, Companionship and Helper meet for Christ)’?

■2■ — Are we to build the “Body of Christ” for Christ, or rather we are to build the “Bride of Christ” for Christ?

If you don't understand my questions at Paul here, you may understand them as I proceed to tell you there is difference between building (edifying) the body of a man and building (edifying) the body of a woman, even though a woman is built for a man. Not only Paul, but even John taught saying that when He (Christ the Lord) shall appear and we see Him, we shall be like He is. And Paul wrote that we all in a mirror/glass are changed into the same Image of the Lord from glory to glory by seeing Him through the Spirit of the Lord.

Then the Revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ and His Bride came to John in the book of Revelation: — And we saw that the Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ is built differently from how the Lord Jesus Christ (the Lamb) is. If the word, “Christian” means “Like Christ,” then I say the Bride of Christ is not a “Christian.” The disciples of Christ should be Christians, but the Bride of Christ should not be Christian. The essence of discipleship is to raise a student to be like his teacher or a servant be like his master: — But you don't raise a Bride to be like her Husband but rather groom a Bride to be with her husband, be for her husband, and be filled by her husband.

Therefore, becoming “Like Christ” was not promoted anywhere in the book of Revelation; rather being “With Christ” is the call.

●A● — In the book of Romans, you have to be predestined to conform to the image of the Son before you are called or chosen and then after you are called He will then justify you, and then after you are justified He will then glorify you, all according to Paul in “Romans 8:29-30.”

●B● — But in the book of Revelation, "Those who are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful." [Revelation 17:14]

The Lord Himself said, “Whoever is not with Me is against Me.” It is not, ‘Whoever is not like Me is against Me;’ rather it is “Whoever is not with Me is against Me.” Being like Him is not the same as Being with Him.

As we advance deeper into endtimes, you can be distracted or deceived the most by those who are the most like Him (Christ Jesus). The more someone is with Him, the less the person can distract or deceive you; but the more someone is like Him, the more the person can distract or deceive you. Satan and devils come as or like angels of like, even like Christ, to deceive many.

Stop looking to be like Christ or do like Him, but seek more to abide with Christ and walk more closely with Him. Do not fall for the same thing that Eve fell for, which was, “you shall be like God knowing good and evil;” even the devil used the same lies to himself saying, “I will be like the Most High” in Isaiah 14.

Your highest goal is to be with Him and joined to Him as His Bride in marriage: Yes, we still need His likeness to be with Him — we must be pure as He is pure, we must be holy for He is holy, we must be perfect for He is perfect, and we must be faithful and true because He is faithful and true — if we will be with Him. But remember, the goal is to be with Him, not just to be like Him or to do like Him.

It is also a difference between “Cloning or Reproducing Christ” in a person and “Wedding Christ with a person.” One refers to reproduction, the other refers to marriage. Paul laboured until Christ is formed inside the church of Galatians [4:19]. He was busy labouring to form Christ Jesus inside the People: — so that Christ may see Himself, image and likeness inside them. Like one of the songs says, “Let others see Jesus in you…keep telling the story, be faithful and true, let others see Jesus in you.”

I tell you, The Bride of Christ will have the Glory, the Light, and Presence of the Lord Jesus Christ and of God in Her. This will not come by Her own self effort, labour or works, to imitate Christ; rather this will come by the Lord adorning Her with the necessary Ornaments and then filling Her with Himself. Therefore, it is not Her that will come to the fullness of Christ; rather Christ the Lord is He that comes to the fullness of Her.

↝ TOUCHING THAT RATHER KEEPS YOU TREMBLING THAN LEAVING SLEEPING ↜

[Daniel 10:10 MKJV] — "And behold, a hand touched me, which set me shaking on my knees and the palms of my hands."
⇵
[Daniel 10:10 ICB] — Then a hand touched me and set me on my hands and knees. I was so afraid that I was shaking.
⇵
[Daniel 10:10 NCB] — "But then I felt a hand touch me, and as I trembled I was raised to my hands and knees."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

Thrice of Daniel’s physical encounters with Principalities of heaven were written in the bible, and in those three distinct occasions Daniel was touched physically by those Principalities five times altogether: Gabriel appeared to Daniel twice and touched him physically twice, and this Principality appeared to Daniel once but touched him physically thrice. Hence, this bible verse in red is the beginning or first of the three times he touched Daniel physically. Also they were real matter, material or tangible touch, and not a mere ghost-touch.

You may have seen where a minister laid hands on people, and someone begins to vibrate and fall especially backwards with trembling and convulsing. Some of them are true, but there are fake ones by actors. Also some of such convulsions are caused by two or more conflicting forces jamming and striving in and over the person convulsing or a spirit simply throwing the man into some form of electrocution from within even without visible contact with electricity: — that is, I am not giving a neurological or medical explanation to convulsions or seizures here, but spiritual explanation to them. For example, see a next B. reference:

[Mark 9:26 FBV] — "The spirit screamed and threw the boy into severe convulsions. Then the spirit came out of the boy and left him for dead— to the extent that many of the people said, “He's dead.””

Now let's focus on the bible verse in red:

A hand, (whether it was the hand of the Principality or that of another being like that which came to write the handwriting on the wall), yes a hand touched Daniel. That “hand-touch” awoke Daniel from deep-sleep or from fainting, and raised him from lying on the ground facedown to his knees and hands basically on as his ground bases instead of his whole body lying on the dust.

As soon as Daniel became awoken from the deep sleep, he was reconnected to his trembling and convulsing fears. He was like a man who slept for sorrow, and while asleep forgot his worries but as soon as he awoke from the sleep or dreams he remembers and reconnects back to worrying. Thus is Daniel in the red bible verse.

Like Daniel here and there, there are some of us that are here now and there are also rest of us that are there:

■A■ Some of us here now — are those of us who have been and are being awoken into awareness of the realities and Presence of the Lord and things that cause us to fear and tremble, shaking and sweating because of these realities of His Presence, His Judgments and True Realities. Our song is, ‘We know His Terror or Judgment.’

[2 Corinthians 5:11] — "Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest to God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.”

Like Daniel or Like Jacob in this next bible reference, those of us here are awoken to realities of the Presence of God, and are afraid:

[Genesis 28:16-17] — "And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, “Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not.” And he was afraid, and said, “How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.””

■B■ Rest of us there now — are those of us who are spiritually in deep sleep and have not been awoken yet, for we‘ve not yet been touched to wake us up into the intensity of these presence, terrors and realities: we are figuratively sleeping in the very battle or war front, as well as figuratively sleeping during messages or warnings ongoing. We hear Speaker with many voices or Voice of multitude speaking and making sounds, but in our deep sleep we do not really understand or hear the words he is saying to us. Besides, our faces while sleeping is pinned to the ground minding earthly things, instead setting our mind on the things above in the heaven where the Lord Jesus Christ presides. Our song is: “I know who I am because of what He said or did for me, He lives for me, He died for me, He is powerful and mighty for me, He works miracles for me, He fights for me, His riches and blessings are for me… etc, when I give Him tithes (10%), seed faith, Firstfruits offerings, etc, He will open the windows of heaven and pour abundance to me to increase my prosperity in cars, in houses, assets, power and fame.” — those of us under these influence are in deep sleep and foolish.

[1 Corinthians 15:34 AFV] — "Awake to righteousness, and do not sin, for some of you do not have the knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.”

↝ SLEEPING DURING MESSAGE OR SERMON ↜

[Daniel 10:9 MKJV] — "Yet I heard the voice of his words. And when I heard the voice of his words, then I was in a deep sleep on my face, and my face [was] toward the ground."
⇵
[Daniel 10:9 ICB] — Then I heard the man in the vision speaking. As I listened, I fell into a deep sleep. My face was on the ground.
⇵
[Daniel 10:9 GWN] — "I heard the man speak, and as I listened to his words, I fainted facedown on the ground."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

You are fallen if your face and your body is lying on the ground, especially if you've fallen asleep from that ground or lost some consciousness or strength. It's called fainting: — Daniel fainted facedown on the ground or Daniel fell to the ground deeply asleep.

Twice such things happened in Daniel: — In this bible verse in red and in “Daniel 8:18.”

[Proverbs 19:15 AFV] — "Laziness throws one into a deep sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer hunger.”

However, it was not laziness that threw Daniel into deep sleep here or there, neither was it of demonic influence that makes some people to fall into sleep as soon as the preaching, message or word of God begins or ongoing in church or fellowship: — Here and there, Daniel fell asleep when the messengers of God began to speak to him, not because of demonic influence or laziness but, because of the disfiguration that drained his strength. I felt the feelings of the man who collapsed and fainted in a banking hall while standing on a queue-line to customer service; and when he was successfully revived, he was given meat-pie and soft drink, for he hadn't eaten fine that day but took Coca-Cola drink that morning in almost empty belly, which reacted and drained him into collapsing and fainting by falling asleep before falling aground from standing.

THE NATURE OF THE SLEEP

Daniel was still in place of receiving vision and revelation when he fell into a deep sleep. Nothing was said about night, breeze or sleep falling upon him to cause him to sleep. It was not sleep that fell upon him, but he fell into it.

Therefore, the nature of this sleep was not like the sleep Peter, James and John, slept in when the Lord Jesus was talking with Moses and Elijah, in glory and visions on the mountain of transfiguration.

Though in both cases, these sons of men were sleeping instead of being awake to fully receive or record the things which the heavenly, glorious and holy Ones were saying in the visions or experiences. Yet, Daniel's deep sleep here was more like Adam’s deep sleep in the garden of Eden, when the Lord God took a rib out of his body to form the woman for him.

The sensitivity or awareness of Daniel or Adam to what was happening to his body even while in the deep sleep corroborates this. Thus, the nature of this sleep is different from other kind of sleep because though it's is a deep sleep, the sleeping man was aware of what's happening on his body and who's speaking to him or touching him at which part of his body, yet he cannot just awake from that deep sleep on his own power though he's fully awake and aware in the spirit.

This sleep is deep, not for unconsciousness or subconsciousness, but for mere fact that the sleeper has to be awoken by a helper as he's fainted.

So, was Adam aware while he was in the deep sleep? Yes, he knew the woman was bone of his bones, and flesh of his flesh, and called her woman - taken from man.

Was Daniel aware while he was in the deep sleep? Yes, he knew exactly how his face was directly pinned to the ground while in deep sleep. Meaning, he knew which direction his face was looking or pointing while he was in a deep sleep. Not everyone knows when he turns his face or what direction he's face is looking while in deep sleep. Moreover, Daniel knew when the angel touched him even while in deep sleep. Some persons have been drugged and touched while in deep sleep, but they were unaware of what, who touched them and where. Not forgetting to add that though Daniel was in deep sleep, he knew the angel was still speaking. Such was the nature of the sleep.

DANIEL HEARD THE VOICE OF THE PRINCIPALITY SPEAKING WHILE DANIEL ADVANCED IN DEEP SLEEP

Same powerful and great voice that was the voice of multitude, which could be heard by the dead, was heard by he who was in a deep sleep but could not prevent the man from falling into the deep sleep. Those sleeping inside church during messages may even do so while the speakers and shouts are very loud, but yet cannot prevent them from sleeping right in the midst. Upon all the noises of the storm and agitation, Jonah was fast asleep in the midst of the unsteading and quaking ship. Yes, even the Lord Jesus slept in a boat while His disciples engaged in effort of futility to control the storm or impacts thereof.

At this point of Daniel sleeping, he was hearing the voice (sound) of the speaker's word, but not hearing the speaker's words. He's under the sound of the speaker's voice, but not understanding or hearing the utterances. It's like being under the sound of the voice of a man who is speaking in tongues (unknown tongues): hearing both his voice and sound, but understanding neither his utterance nor his saying. Let's just describe what it's like using these verses:

[Isaiah 29:10-12 AFV] — "For the LORD has poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes; He has covered the prophets and your rulers, and the seers. And the vision of all has become to you like the words of a book that is sealed, which they give to one who is learned saying, “Please read this,” and he says, “I cannot, for it is sealed.” And the book is delivered to him who is not learned, saying, “Please read this,” and he says, “I am not learned.””

To keep the vision and revelation from those around Daniel, a great fear fell upon them; but to keep the perception from Daniel he fell into a deep sleep, hearing but not perceiving. Technically, this was when or where the initial watching or watchfulness of Daniel was defeated by him falling into deep sleep. He had been mourning, waiting and watching by the great river Hiddekel, and had achieved significant milestones in this quest and fulfilled days of mourning, and even seen the surface anatomy of a Principality of heaven face to face in his own realm or reality: but when it was time for the Principality to reveal to him what was currently in his mind, message, attention or attendance, the battery that powered watching or watchfulness to these things was drained, and Daniel fell. He did not fall from grace, but he fell from standing in watchmanship. Perhaps what he missed out here from what the Principality said under this bible verse in red would have given us clues to identify the Principality by name or other important details. Well, the Principality spoke in this bible verse in red, but there's no saying or record of what he said by the sleeping witness

[1 John 3:2-3 GWN] — "Beloved, now we are children of God, and it hasn’t yet appeared what we will be. We know that when He appears we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. Everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

[Matthew 17:1-3] — Six days later, Jesus took Peter, James, and John the brother of James up on a high mountain. They were all alone there. While they watched, Jesus was transfigured (changed for the better). His face became bright like the sun. And His clothes became white as light. Then two men were there, talking with Him. The men were Moses and Elijah.

↝ DISFIGURATION, INSTEAD OF TRANSFIGURATION ↜

[Daniel 10:8 AKJV] — "Therefore I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me: for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength."
⇵
[Daniel 10:8 GNT] — I was left there alone, watching this amazing vision. I had no strength left, and my face was so changed that no one could have recognized me.
⇵
[Daniel 10:8 NEB] — and I was left alone gazing at this great vision. But my strength left me; I became a sorry figure of a man, and retained no strength.

When either Divinity or Principality manifests (appears) in its full glory and with the same intense appearance it has in the heavens, but physically to a man or seer on earth that has never seen such degree of glory or intensity before, that man seeing such degree of glory revealed to him physically for the first time will get either transfigured or disfigured depending on the Lord's grace by him.

THOSE TEMPORARILY DISFIGURED BY SUCH REVELATIONS OR VISIONS INCLUDE:

■1■ — Daniel: — In this bible verse in red, Daniel was disfigured by seeing this great figure of Principality from the heavens. His Disfiguration included:— Draining of his strength and energy (stamina) on one hand, and the turning of his comeliness (beauty or fairness) into corruption or deterioration; later in subsequent verses we were told that Daniel also became dumb or mute by seeing this vision physically at such degrees. Thus, marred or for better word, disfigured physically by seeing the manifest vision.

■2■ — Paul: — Like Daniel in this red bible verse, Paul too was isolated from those around or with him on his way to Damascus to see and hear the manifest revelation or vision of the Lord Jesus Christ physically alone; and was also disfigured by seeing Divinity: His Disfiguration included:— Physical Blindness (Acts 9:3-9).

■3■ — Zechariah: — Like Daniel in this red verse, Zechariah a chief priest and father of John the Baptist, was alone inside and saw Gabriel manifestly: but he was struck dumb — and as it was customary to the people, they knew he had seen a vision judging by the disfiguration he had. His Disfiguration included: Dumbness.

[Luke 1:22 LBP] — "When Zacharias came out, he could not speak with them; and they understood that he had seen a vision in the temple; and he made signs to them with his eyes, but remained dumb.”

Do not forget such Disfiguration or Transfiguration as the case maybe if it comes, usually happened when that manifest vision happens to be the very first physical apparition or appearance of such Principality or Divinity to the man affected in the physical realms. So, in Daniel’s case in the bible verse in red, this manifest vision of this Principality from the heavens to Daniel was actually Daniel’s first encounter or experience of seeing the supernatural physically. Even though we saw in precedent chapters that Daniel had seen Gabriel twice, and seen other Principalities and Divinity in visions and dreams: — This Principality Daniel saw in the third year of Cyrus king of Persia became Daniel’s first encounter, before the other Principality (Gabriel) Daniel saw in the first year of Darius king of Persia. These two visions were physical, and involved those Principalities entering into Daniel’s (physical) realms to appear and touch Daniel physically, and not Daniel entering into their own spiritual realms to see or encounter them.

So, all the written visions of Daniel during the era of Persia (Cyrus and Darius as kings of Persia) were physical and involved Principality entering into physical realms to appear to Daniel, including Daniel’s vision in the lions den involving an angel shutting up the mouths of the lions or making them dumb (mute) by just appearing to the lions. — On the other hand, all the written visions of Daniel during the era of Babylonia (Belshazzar's first year and third year as king of Babylon) were not physical but were spiritual and figurative, involving animations or beasts such as the lion alike beast, the bear alike beast, the leopard alike beast, the non-alike beast with horns, and then later the Ram and the He-goat, the Horn, the Ancient of Days, and the Son of Man — were visions Daniel received during Belshazzar and Babylonia era, and those visions were not physical but spiritual and figurative, and they involved Daniel entering into different realms to see them just the way John the beloved entered different realms in spirit to receive the revelations or visions in the book of Revelation. Here, they did not come into his realms (physically), but instead he was taken into their realms in trance or soul travel.

There have been other physical manifestations of the Divinity or Principality with glory and intensity, which neither disfigured nor transfigured the seers: — In this case, one of these applied:

°A° — The Divinity or Principality manifests in or with Clouds as covering: E.g. Manifest in the Pillar of Clouds

°B° — The Divinity or Principality manifests in or with Fire as covering: E.g. Manifest in the Pillar of Fire

°C° — The Divinity or Principality manifests in or with thick darkness and or smoke-effects as covering: E.g. Manifest in the Darkness and Smoke-effects on Mount Sinai to Israelites during the issuance of the Ten Commandments.

°D° — The Divinity or Principality manifests in or with physical flesh as covering: E.g. Three Men that appeared to Abraham as heading to Sodom, to whom Abraham gave meat and milk to eat and drink in Genesis 18. The Man that wrestled with Jacob. The Captain of the Hosts that appeared to Joshua. The Lord God Himself born of a virgin, and dwelt or walked among men in flesh and blood as the Son of man - Jesus Christ.

THOSE TRANSFIGURED BY SUCH REVELATIONS OR VISIONS INCLUDE:

[Matthew 17:1-3] — Six days later, Jesus took Peter, James, and John the brother of James up on a high mountain. They were all alone there. While they watched, Jesus was transfigured (changed for the better). His face became bright like the sun. And His clothes became white as light. Then two men were there, talking with Him. The men were Moses and Elijah.

Not about the six days later, but the six men involved: — Jesus, Moses, Elijah, Peter, James and John.

All these six men were transfigured at different ways: I show you how and when each of them became transfigured:

■1■ — The Lord Jesus — The transfiguration of the Lord Jesus was unique from those of anyone else: — the reason being that others are transfigured or changed by beholding (seeing) the higher degrees or intensity of glorious figures of Divinity or Principality manifest, but in the case of the Lord Jesus Christ it was not Divinity or Principality that transfigured or changed Him but rather He was changed while He was praying or beholding He that was unseen or unmanifest — that is, His Father and His Glory. It was after He was transfigured that Moses and Elijah appeared to Him or with Him, indicating it was not their glory that caused the change in His transfiguration. Moreover, they were neither Principality nor Divinity: they were not angels but men of God that were looking up to the Lord Jesus, not the Lord Jesus looking up to them.

■2■ — Peter, John and James — The transfiguration of the Lord Jesus was also the transfiguration of these three — Peter, John and James, while they slept and awoke. However, their transfiguration was mental at the consciousness or awareness level, not anatomic. These were the signs of their transfiguration or transformation of their minds: — As soon as they woke up from sleep, they suddenly knew Moses and Elijah, whom they had never met before. Can a spirit being appear to you when you just wake up from sleep, and without introduction of who that spirit is you will know exactly whether he or she is perhaps Enock, Adam, Ruth, Elizabeth, etc, even without anyone telling you who that person who lived and died thousands of years before you were born was? That cognition was of supernatural and of the word of knowledge, understanding or perception due to the transfiguration of the Lord also happening in their heart and mind because they too have seen or been with the Lord Jesus in glory and were changed into the same Image inwardly.

[Acts 4:13 NLV] — They were surprised and wondered how easy it was for Peter and John to speak. They could tell they were men who had not gone to school. But they knew they had been with Jesus.

Before then, these men were among the rest of the disciples that saw the Lord Jesus walking on the waters of the sea and couldn't discern it was the Lord Jesus in “Matthew 14.” But now they know Him when they see Him, even know Him in the spirit after His resurrection that also transfigured or changed Him in appearance from how He used to look before He died.

[John 21:12 BBE] — "“Come and eat some breakfast,” Jesus said to them. None of the disciples was brave enough to ask Him, “Who are You?” They knew It was the Lord.”

■3■ — Elijah — The transfiguration of Elijah happened as soon as he was caught up with the chariot of fire, horses and the angels taking Elijah into heaven. Like it happened to Enock, this very kind of transfiguration is called “Translation” — when translated, the man would not die even when he enters into places or things that kill mortal people. Example, the fire of the chariot and horses would have burnt up Elisha, but being transfigured the fire could not harm Elijah or the mantle that fell off him as he transfigured.

■4■ — Moses — The transfiguration of Moses happened on the Mount Sinai when he saw the manifest Lord God of Israel passed by him physically in His glory and intensity. That transfiguration made and kept his face shining and bright as star forever: it also corrected Moses’ impediment in speech so that Moses was no longer a stammerer, but became eloquent in speech. The songs of Moses were songs of he who was once slow of speech and who stammered, but now sings with sweet smooth voice of eloquence. Moreover, his natural force remained unabated and his eyes never dimmed, all thanks to the transfiguration on beholding the Lord.

Do not get disfigured but transfigured by seeing the Lord in glory:

[1 John 3:2-3 GWN] — "Beloved, now we are children of God, and it hasn’t yet appeared what we will be. We know that when He appears we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. Everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”

Many today are “near” the Lord but don’t know Him personally. They are in His presence or proximity, but are not in His perception. They are those with Daniel in this red bible verse.

↝ SEEING THE VISION OTHERS BESIDE YOU DON’T SEE ↜

[Daniel 10:7 AKJV] — "And I Daniel alone saw the vision: for the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great quaking fell on them, so that they fled to hide themselves."
⇵
[Daniel 10:7 NIV] — I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision; those who were with me did not see it, but such terror overwhelmed them that they fled and hid themselves.
⇵
[Daniel 10:7 GWN] — "I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision. The men with me didn't see the vision. Yet, they started to tremble violently, and they quickly hid themselves."

♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️

You may already know that once light comes in, darkness flees; or devil's flee once the Lord steps in: — Behold, even unworthy people flee when the presence of a Principality of the Heavens manifests as in this bible verse in red. The 4 points to learning:

■•■1. Divine Encounters And Revelations Are Selective —

The heavens’ give revelations or experiences to selected individuals, and not necessarily to everyone around them. E.g. to Daniel, and not to those around Daniel, it was given to see, hear and encounter the spiritual vision and revelation. Do not expect everyone to see or understand what is revealed to you.

[Luke 8:10 NCB] — "He said, “To you has been granted knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but for others they are made known in parables, so that ‘looking they may not see, and hearing they may not understand.’”

Trust that divine experiences are personal and may not be shared by even those nearby. Understand that your spiritual journey and experiences might be unique to you.

■•■2. Divine Revelations and Encounters Are Isolative —

Since they are Selective, they are therefore Isolative. Powerful encounters with God can create temporary isolation from others. Their presence parts or isolates in between those present, like the way the angels of the chariot of fire and horses from heaven parted to the dividing asunder or separation of Elijah from Elisha, before taking Elijah away, or the way the pillar of fire and clouds separated the children of Israel from the Egyptians. Here, we are looking at how their presence parted or separated to the isolation of Daniel from the other people with him.

[Luke 17:34-36 NLV] — "I tell you, on that night there will be two men in the same bed. One of them will be taken. The other will be left. Two women will be grinding grain together. One of them will be taken. The other will be left. *Two men will be working in a field. One will be taken. The other will be left."”

In the bible verse in red, Daniel was left alone because the revelation, encounter and manifestation, isolated him from among his friends or neighbours, chasing them away from him but locking him up to be alone in solitude.

Don’t be discouraged by solitude—God may be preparing you for deeper revelation, experience or encounter. You may be losing friends or have them forsake you, keeping their distance away from you because the Lord is separating them from you, that He may have you left alone for Him to approach you.

[Genesis 32:24 AFV] — "And Jacob was left alone. And a Man wrestled there with him until the breaking of the day.”

If you feel isolated, trust that God may be leading you to focus more deeply on what He’s revealing or walking with Him.

■•■3. Proximity Does not Equal Perception —

This also means that to those isolated or left in the dark, Being presently near to a divine encounter or heavenly presence does not guarantee you’ll receive or perceive it. Like in this bible verse in red, others may sense God’s presence (fear, awe) but miss the message. Many today are “near” the Lord but don’t know Him personally. They are in His presence or proximity, but are not in His perception. They are those with Daniel in this red bible verse.

[Luke 13:26-30 AFV] — "And you shall begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You have taught in our streets.’ And He shall say, ‘I tell you, I do not know you or where you are from. Depart from Me, all you workers of unrighteousness.’ There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are cast out. Then they shall come from the east and the west, and from the north and the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God. And behold, there are the last who shall be first, and the first who shall be last.””

Cultivate spiritual sensitivity—being in the right place is not enough. Environment is not Enough to guarantee such Encounter: For just because you’re in a spiritual environment doesn’t mean you will encounter God the same way.

■•■4. The Unseen Is More influential Than the Seen —

The same vision they could not see did so much emotional and physical disturbances and displacement on them. It was a reality that was unseen by their sight yet undeniable by their emotions.

The unseen spiritual realm has stronger impact and influence on the physical world than the visible. Fear of the unsen fell upon people around with quaking, and they hid themselves, more the fear of the seen had done to them before. Somethings do not have to be seen for them to drive you, control you or shake you heavily. Know significance of unseen spiritual forces at work in your life.

[Ezekiel 28:18 BSB] — "By the multitude of your iniquities and the dishonesty of your trading you have profaned your sanctuaries. So I made fire come from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you.”

↝ SURFACE ANATOMY OF A TYPICAL ANGEL'S BODY ↜

[Daniel 10:6 AKJV] — His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in color to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
⇵
[Daniel 10:6 GNT] — His body shone like a jewel. His face was as bright as a flash of lightning, and his eyes blazed like fire. His arms and legs shone like polished bronze, and his voice sounded like the roar of a great crowd.
⇵
[Daniel 10:6 ESV] — His body was like beryl, his face like the appearance of lightning, his eyes like flaming torches, his arms and legs like the gleam of burnished bronze, and the sound of his words like the sound of a multitude.

This angel, as case study for other angels like him, is a living and walking pack of glorious treasures and ornaments. No artificial intelligence, no pack of robots and no man-made machines, come close to the values, excellence and treasures of having just this one Prince angel:

■⅕■ His Entire Body is basically Jewel or Precious-Gem as the Beryl, Topaz or Jasper:

To have this angel is to have indescribable wealth and riches in precious gems that are of his body parts. Every part of his body is precious and rare gem that is not of this world, but compared to beryl, topaz or jasper in appearance.

Our earthly body of flesh is made of clay or dust of the ground, but his body is made of heavenly precious stones and glorious gems that endures eternity.

You thought the cherub in “Ezekiel 28:13” whom people refer to as Lucifer before he fell, was perfect in beauty: but I tell you, this Prince and Warrior Angel in this bible verse in red is even greater than the so called Lucifer in “Ezekiel 28:13.” Let me cite it out:

[Ezekiel 28:13-14] — "You have been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of your tabrets and of your pipes was prepared in you in the day that you were created. You are the anointed cherub that covers; and I have set you so: you were on the holy mountain of God; you have walked up and down in the middle of the stones of fire.”

You see what I mean? — The treasures or precious gems used for making the so called Lucifer were not Lucifer's body but Lucifer's Covering. He was made to be the anointed Cherub that covers, and so he was himself having those precious gems as Covering and not as “Anatomy.” Let's compare between this Prince Angel and that former Lucifer (Anointed Cherub that covers)

[A] ——— Lucifer (the anointed Cherub that covers) had every precious Stone as his Covering, but not his body: These included the sardius, topaz, diamond, beryl, onyx, jasper, sapphire, emerald, carbuncle and gold. This means he was wearing them as clothing or covering, the way a woman may be wearing artificial body parts or garments that make her glorious but they aren’t parts of her body or they are detachable from her body. So was the cherub in Ezekiel 28:13-14 anointed as a covering under those coverings. ——— On the other hand, this Prince with golden waist belt had his entire body basically Precious Gems by default, while he covers his body with linen. His Body is not flesh or meat, but Gem.

[B] ——— Lucifer (the anointed Cherub that covers) had a workmanship of tablet and workmanship of pipe prepared inside him in the day he was created: This make his voice sound like music or melody when he spoke. ——— On the other hand, this Prince with golden waist belt has his voice sound like multitude of people or many waters, not with melody but with majesty: roaring not just as thunder, but as the voice of multitude. If he speaks, multitude speak: and if he has spoken, multitude have spoken. These are not just of tabrets or pipes, but of vocal cords or voices.

[C] ——— Lucifer (the anointed Cherub that covers) had nothing of fire coming out of him, but walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire in that bible reference of Ezekiel 28. Nothing fire proceeds from him, even when he was depicted as a great dragon in the book of Revelation, he was a dragon that could not spew out fire but only water or flood against that woman in Revelation 12. Now you understand why his walking up and down the midst of the stones of fire then was his thing; and even now he likes walking to and fro, up and down, the earth as Satan: he doesn't stay one place or goes to one place with purpose, but up and down and to warm him hell fire, since he no longer walks up and down in the middle of the stones of fire on the holy mountain of God as he did before.

My point is this, the day fire will come out from within him will be his day of destruction of himself, for he cannot afford fire from within him or inside him because inside him there no precious gems but only as covering outside him the way tortoise or snail has no protection within except the covering of its shell as covering. So, those precious gems or stones on Lucifer covers his unclothedness or vulnerability within: He can withstand fire outside him thanks to those precious stones that cover him, but cannot withstand fire within or inside him. To destroy him, fire was brought within him. As it is written,

[Ezekiel 28:18 BSB] — "By the multitude of your iniquities and the dishonesty of your trading you have profaned your sanctuaries. So I made fire come from within you, and it consumed you. I reduced you to ashes on the ground in the eyes of all who saw you.”

He is burnable or can be reduced to ashes, as mortal man to dust.

——— On the other hand, this Prince with golden waist belt is basically flaming fire. Within his eyes were lamps of burning fire, and his face is basically as lightning (electricity) called “Thunder Fire/Flames” to show you fire burns and emanate from within him as the sun radiates fire from with.

■⅖■ his face as the appearance of lightning:

To have this “Angel's Face” is to have a reliable face and source of Lightning and generating Electricity with high voltage.

■⅗■ his eyes as lamps of fire, like flaming torches:

To have this “Angel's Face” is to have constant Lights, Fire, Lamps or Laser Beams, that basically are also cameras and watchers. You know how torch lenses are when lit, or spotlights or a car's headlamps in brilliance, so you may know how the eyes of this angelic Prince are. Human eyes may come with black, blue, green, or gray lenses; but the lenses of this Angel come, not just as white all through, but as torches with beams of inner circumferences and those of outer circumstances or radii.

■⅘■ his arms and his feet like in color to polished brass, like polished bronze:

To have this ‘Angel's Limbs’ is to have the Limbs (hands and Legs) that can fight or can retain strength greater than trained muscles. Those Limbs are not afraid of any weapons of war. Your answer to this question:

[Job 6:12 BSB] — "Is my strength like that of stone, or my flesh made of bronze?”

Would be, “Yes.” Therefore, this would apply to you:

[Deuteronomy 33:25 MKJV] — "Your shoes [shall be] iron and bronze. And as your days, so shall your strength be.”

■⅘■ and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude:

To have this ‘Angel's Voice is to have the voice that can command a host of angels or army of heaven, as well as a voice that can command thunder, and command even the dead anywhere Whether it is in heaven, or earth or underneath any.

The Lord Jesus will come or return such voice, called the “Voice of an Archangel” - the voice of His command.

[1Thessalonian 4:16 AFV] —"Because the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout of command, with the voice of an archangel and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first;”

[Psalms 103:20] — "Bless the LORD, you His angels, that excel in strength, that do His commandments, hearkening to the voice of His command.”

Therefore, the shout of the King is among that voice of multitude.
