Welcome to the World of Biblical Prophecy for History and Today

This Blog is intended to help myself and others gain the best understanding of the world around us through exploration of prophetic scripture. The Bible is the text book. Through these studies we will hopefully provide understanding to both believer and unbeliever alike. The way our God and our Savior Jesus distinguish themselves in the spiritual world is through prophetic means. In other words what the Bible teaches us through fullfillment of these prophecies shows us the truth. Let's take some prophetic journeys through history and at the same time learn about the world around us today. Please try and be patient with any typographical errors as I am my own typist and my own research staff. Thanks

Daniel Extremity Yesterday and Today: Part 1 of Deliver Us

Matthew 6:6-13 KJV
(6)But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
(7)But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
(8)Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
(9)After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
(10)Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
(11)Give us this day our daily bread.
(12)And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
(13)And lead us not into temptation, but deliverG4506 us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.


(13)And lead us not into temptation, but deliverG4506 us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

G4506ῥύομαι
rhuomai
rhoo'-om-aheeMiddle voice of an obsolete verb, akin to G4482 (through the idea of a current; compare G4511); to rush or draw (for oneself), that is, rescue: - deliver (-er).


G4482ῥέω
rheō
hreh'-oA primary verb; for some tenses of which a prolonged form (ῥεύω rheuō) is used; to flow ("run", as water): - flow.

G4511ῥύσις
rhusis
hroo'-sisFrom G4506 in the sense of its congener G4482; a flux (of blood): - issue.

John 19:26-37 KJV
(26)When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!
(27)Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.
(28)After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.
(29)Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.
(30)When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
(31)The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.
(32)Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.
(33)But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:
(34)But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
(35)And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.
(36)For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.
(37)And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

This introduction to our next explorations connecting our world and Daniel's says a lot in the spirit. In our last journey we explored how temptation connected Daniel to the Lord's prayer in the form of piercing or Jesus being pierced upon the cross was both spiritually and literally connected to overcoming temptation. We also ventured ahead into how the subjects of imprisonment and testing will be part of the problems those converting to Jesus will face during the tribulation period.

Now in this next look at the Lord's prayer and the book of Daniel we will explore deliverance. As we know from our entire journey through Daniel this was very much so demonstrated in at least 3 separate occasions. Some relating to Daniel himself and others to his 3 fellow noblemen. Again we see in word study of the word "deliver" that another direct connection exists literally and in the spirit. Our deliverance obtained by the flowing of blood and water of the passage from John above.

We have explored briefly some patterns involving Daniel and his friends. This particular section of study will explore both history prior to Daniel, during Daniel and what we have in store according to scripture in the not so distant future. To help put the examples in order we can start pretty much at the beginning after the fall of man.

Romans 5:8-21 KJV
(8)But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
(9)Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
(10)For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
(11)And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
(12)Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
(13)(For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.
(14)Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
(15)But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
(16)And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.
(17)For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
(18)Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
(19)For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.
(20)Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
(21)That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Genesis 3:21-24 KJV
(21)Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.
(22)And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
(23)Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
(24)So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

In between the rest of Adam's life and the flood we have a world going insane with all kinds of sins described.

Genesis 6:1-7 KJV
(1)And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
(2)That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
(3)And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
(4)There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
(5)And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
(6)And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
(7)And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

Also in the midst of the fall and the flood we have a detailed account of a man called Enoch.

Genesis 5:19-29 KJV
(19)And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
(20)And all the days of Jared were nine hundred sixty and two years: and he died.
(21)And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:
(22)And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:
(23)And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:
(24)And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.
(25)And Methuselah lived an hundred eighty and seven years, and begat Lamech:
(26)And Methuselah lived after he begat Lamech seven hundred eighty and two years, and begat sons and daughters:
(27)And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died.
(28)And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son:
(29)And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed.

At this point in time we will not detail out all the factors associated to Enoch. However as we can see above he was granted a ticket out of a world gone mad with God. Even more importantly to set an example for events that would take place way down the timeline of the testaments Enoch was taken to heaven alive. This of course is also how our Savior Jesus ascended into heaven.

We also know that after Enoch was taken out of the deteriorating world the flood came. With the coming of the flood of course Noah and his family totalling 8 souls were saved.

Genesis 7:23-24 KJV
(23)And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.
(24)And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.


We could go on and on of course however with the individuals we looked at here and the situation of the 4 Hebrews in the book of Daniel finding many end time references can be explored.

Another time we have God demomnstrating incredible acts is during that of the prophet Elijah. Now once again here we cannot explore all the factors involving Elijah. These will be addressed subject by subject as our studies progress. An example of this would be say the rapture and its patterns to Elijah, Enoch and Jesus.

2 Kings 2:9-12 KJV
(9)And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.
(10)And he said, Thou hast asked a hard thing: nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee; but if not, it shall not be so.
(11)And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.(12)And Elisha saw it, and he cried, My father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. And he saw him no more: and he took hold of his own clothes, and rent them in two pieces.

In between Enoch and Elijah we have the account of Joseph who having the same gifts of interpretation rose to the level of power attained by Daniel.

Genesis 41:15-16 KJV
(15)And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.
(16)And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.

As we cannot mention enough the extremes of faith and understanding are placed into the book of Daniel. Daniel knew that God could explain the dream of the statue representing the rise and fall of global powers throughout history. Daniel knew this because he believed first and foremost in God and His power to send and explain the dreams of men. Daniel knew this in confidence also because of his firm belief in the scriptures. The history of Joseph and the fact that God had done these things before throughout biblical history.

Daniel 2:20-23 KJV
(20)Daniel answered and said, Blessed be the name of God for ever and ever: for wisdom and might are his:
(21)And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
(22)He revealeth the deep and secret things: he knoweth what is in the darkness, and the light dwelleth with him.
(23)I thank thee, and praise thee, O thou God of my fathers, who hast given me wisdom and might, and hast made known unto me now what we desired of thee: for thou hast now made known unto us the king's matter.


Genesis 41:38-43 KJV
(38)And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?
(39)And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art:
(40)Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.
(41)And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
(42)And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck;
(43)And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt.


Daniel 2:45-49 KJV
(45)Forasmuch as thou sawest that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it brake in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure.
(46)Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell upon his face, and worshipped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an oblation and sweet odours unto him.
(47)The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is, that your God is a God of gods, and a Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, seeing thou couldest reveal this secret.
(48)Then the king made Daniel a great man, and gave him many great gifts, and made him ruler over the whole province of Babylon, and chief of the governors over all the wise men of Babylon.
(49)Then Daniel requested of the king, and he set Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel sat in the gate of the king.


The words "deliver us" spoken by Jesus have very deep roots in scripture to say the least. It would be impossible for us to cover all the acts of deliverance throughout the scripture in a reasonable amount of time so we have hit some of the key examples contained within the scripture. These are key examples because they demonstrate the plan of salvation for all of us in the the world we know today.
The examples which we have covered include cause and effect, life and death consequences and also warning signs which we have explored within each. These are not meant to be recognized or seen as more important than say the history of Abraham. However as with many of the famous historical individuals in scripture God usually provides certain amounts of greater detail to specific situations and individuals.

1 Corinthians 10:1-12 KJV
(1)Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
(2)And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
(3)And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
(4)And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
(5)But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the wilderness.
(6)Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after evil things, as they also lusted.
(7)Neither be ye idolaters, as were some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
(8)Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
(9)Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.
(10)Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.
(11)Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
(12)Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall.

As always God Bless
