In New Jersey, there happens to be a town by the name of Tabernacle. You take highway 532 to get there:

My friend Ron would love this coincidence.

October 2nd, 2013Nothing Is Normal
October 2nd, 2013In John Williams’ latest newsletter (www.shadowstats.com), he states, “Nothing is normal: not the economy, not the financial system, not the financial markets and not the political system.” I agree. On the 1st day of the government shutdown, the President’s Working Group on Financial Markets kept the selling of stocks, the selling of the U.S. dollar, and buying of gold from occurring. It was clear when you looked at the drop in the price of gold yesterday. It should have been moving up on the uncertainty. Ultimately, market fundamentals will prevail.
For those in pension funds, you might want to gain perspective from the research of Matt Taibbi. He exposes Wall Street’s latest source of unscrupulous activities.
It just keeps getting uglier out there and the truth is harder to discern for the average person. This is emphasizes the fact that our only source of Truth is Our Heavenly Father.
A Mantle Has Transferred?
October 2nd, 2013On October 1st (yesterday), I am led to believe a “mantle” has been transferred. It is based on a dream and four earthquakes registered here in Oklahoma occurring on this very day. I do not have any details, nor do I have any verification at this point. Time will tell. A key may be the timing of Kenneth Hagin’s passing 10 years and 11 days ago on September 19th, 2003. He was known as the “Father of the Word of Faith”. The 1st Day of the Feast of Tabernacles was September 19th, 2013, exactly 10 years after his death.
I don’t ever recall 4 earthquakes in one day in this area:
![CropperCapture[211]](http://www.servias.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/CropperCapture211.png "CropperCapture[211]")
This kind of activity is highly unusual. Could it be the mantle of Elijah being transferred?
2 Kings 2:
But he said, “As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you!” So the two of them went on. 7 And fifty men of the sons of the prophets went and stood facing them at a distance, while the two of them stood by the Jordan. 8 Now Elijah took his mantle, rolled it up, and struck the water; and it was divided this way and that, so that the two of them crossed over on dry ground.
9 And so it was, when they had crossed over, that Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask! What may I do for you, before I am taken away from you?”
Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.”
10 So he said, “You have asked a hard thing. Nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it shall be so for you; but if not, it shall not be so.” 11 Then it happened, as they continued on and talked, that suddenly a chariot of fire appeared with horses of fire, and separated the two of them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
12 And Elisha saw it, and he cried out, “My father, my father, the chariot of Israel and its horsemen!” So he saw him no more. And he took hold of his own clothes and tore them into two pieces. 13 He also took up the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan. 14 Then he took the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and struck the water, and said, “Where is the LORD God of Elijah?” And when he also had struck the water, it was divided this way and that; and Elisha crossed over.
15 Now when the sons of the prophets who were from Jericho saw him, they said, “The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.
If a mantle has been transferred, Our Heavenly Father will confirm it with multiple witnesses.
16,000 Dow?
October 1st, 2013Last night the U.S. Government shut down… sort of. This charade of the two party system is designed to move power from one party to another. Since the Fed can print unlimited money, only the legal wrangling remains before the spigot opens again. Once this happens, the stock market might experience “euphoria” and push the Dow to 16,000. If this happens, I see it as the world’s attempt at love and it will then miserably fail.
Richard Russell, known as the Godfather of newsletter writers, sees the potential of a “megaphone formation” or the “broadening formation.”
He said, “This final wave of optimism is the market’s kiss of death, since this final rising wave takes stocks far above known values”. He looks for the Dow to collapse to 5,000. Incidentally, ”5” if the number of Grace.
In his interview: Question — How do you think we should prepare for these massive changes that you foresee?
Response: I’m not really sure, but my first response is that we must abolish greed and become spiritual. Currently, it seems to me that the emphasis is on profit, growth at any price, power, greed and wealth.”
He expects a drop like this would evoke a new monetary system.
I think Richard is on to something big!

Redeemed From Death
October 1st, 2013The Second Census was about the redemption of inheritance. It was held twenty years after the first census Stephen Jones was led to conduct. It was based on Numbers 26, the time at the end of the captivity of the children of Israel. Also, I was awaken just before our trip to KC for the Tabernacles Conference and was told to prepare to speak on “inheritance” if I was asked. I spoke for 10 minutes in the last hour on the last day of the conference and relayed the essence of the Second Census.
As I have mentioned, the final, official count of the Second Census was 532, a number of redemption from death. This is the number of Spiritual Perfection of cleansing, the result is “Life”.
The 10th miracle of Elisha was the cleansing of leprosy (death) of Naaman in 2 Kings 5:
1 Now Naaman, commander of the army of the king of Syria, was a great and honorable man in the eyes of his master, because by him the LORD had given victory to Syria. He was also a mighty man of valor, but a leper
Naaman was subject to death, even though he was a mighty man of valor. Who else had been given such a title? Those who inherited the Promised Land:
Joshua 10:7 NKJV – So Joshua ascended from Gilgal (Rolling), he and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of valor.
Near Shechem (Ridge) was where Joshua had renewed the Covenant and read all of the Words of the Law. (Joshua 8:30-35)
Back to Naaman… He had overcome the enemy, he was a mighty man of valor, but he was a leper (subject to death). He had persevered through many trials and was a seasoned man of warfare. As a reward for this valor:
5 Then the king of Syria said, “Go now, and I will send a letter to the king of Israel.”
So he departed and took with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold, and ten changes of clothing.
6 Then he brought the letter to the king of Israel, which said,
Now be advised, when this letter comes to you, that I have sent Naaman my servant to you, that you may heal him of his leprosy.
“10” is the number of Divine Order, or Law. “6,000” represent the six days of work, prior to the Day of Rest (when you only do what you Hear Our Heavenly Father command). The changes of clothing represent moving from mortality to immortality. The king of Israel was disturbed but Elisha stepped in to on behalf of Israel to deal with the matter:
7 And it happened, when the king of Israel read the letter, that he tore his clothes and said, “Am I God, to kill and make alive, that this man sends a man to me to heal him of his leprosy? Therefore please consider, and see how he seeks a quarrel with me.”
8 So it was, when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, “Why have you torn your clothes? Please let him come to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel.”
Elisha was ordained to perform 16 miracles, a sign of Love, a double portion of Elijah’s ministry of 8 miracles. Just as Joshua (Jeshua Yeshuwa`) was to complete Moses’ mission, Elisha was to complete the Elijah mission.
9 Then Naaman went with his horses and chariot, and he stood at the door of Elisha’s house. 10 And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, “Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored to you, and you shall be clean.”
“76” is the number of cleansing and Naaman was directed to do this cleansing 7 times… (76×7=532). Naaman is a picture of moving from death to life, mortality to immortality. He was a man of action, a mighty man of valor. The 6,000 talents of gold point to the end of the 6,000 years of man’s work, entering into the Divine Nature of the Rest work. The silver representing redemption reflects the Divine Order.
Could this Second Census be the turning point and pointing to the rest work?
By the way, in Bible code I am told that from Genesis 1:1, each 532nd letter in sequence spells out “GOD is able”. I say “Amen”!
The Kansas City Tabernacles Conference was both an ending and a beginning. Stay tuned.
Disorder Ahead
September 28th, 2013Economic disorder is ahead. The Fed is learning by doing and they are screwing it up. Who will pay the price? You and I have been paying for five years but we will keep paying. Rhode Island has changed its pension laws to reduce value and costs. Who cares what was promised years ago. Tough luck. Prepare for other pension funds to be compromised as well. You must protect yourself. If your pension fund is located in a public entity without a balanced budget, you will be among the first targets. Others will have more notice as disorder increases. Take the opportunity to minimize your exposure, if possible. Convertible hard assets are the best protection against those who will exploit you.
Usurpers of Law
September 26th, 2013Usurp: to take and keep (something, such as power) in a forceful or violent way and especially without the right to do so. Do U.S. government officials have the right to manipulate markets to perpetuate a lie? This is exactly what is going on in today’s markets. It is well known among lawmakers that bills passed in Congress, Parliament, or whatever the government entity, contain subtle statutes which enable officials to carry out their own agenda. The current environment in the gold and silver markets is the most obvious example.
Fiat currencies are a lie, they represent an illusion of wealth. The moment you give a small group of men and women the power over wealth, they will ultimately make decisions based on greed… unless they are directed by Our Heavenly Father. The U.S. Dollar has lost 98% of its value since the 1920’s. Fiat currency systems have a history of collapse. There has never been a fiat currency to survive hundreds of years. On the other hand, gold and silver have managed to survive as currency over thousands of years. Why do governments steer away from gold and silver? They can’t manipulate its value.
Is a lower law that contradicts a higher law legally enforceable? The highest law is the law of Love, the two Commandments explained by Jesus Christ. Once men separate from the “spirit” of those two laws, they become usurpers of law. Thinking that you can pass a statute to “legally” manipulate a market at the expense of the populace is a short-sided view. There will come a day of reckoning and it will not be pretty. Men and women will wonder “How could GOD allow this to happen?”. HE will simply refer to the Law of Equal Weights and Measures, then pronounce HIS judgment.
By the way, HIS name is not GOD, it is LORD GOD ALMIGHTY:
“Holy, holy, holy,
Lord God Almighty,
Who was and is and is to come!”
or, if you know HIM, it is FATHER.
Just A Thought from Ray
September 25th, 2013IS BEING THANKFUL A KEY TO MATURING TO FULLNESS?
For example …Luke 17:12 etc
The account of the ten lepers meeting Jesus. All ten were healed as they went to register their blessing, only one (10%) made a special effort to say thanks. This resulted in his being made whole (receiving fullness of his purposed life) which meant that all the scars of the previous leprosy were gone. A person only says ‘thank you’ when they have actually received something. [Like the mountain highway gas-station sign which said, “Fill up and be tank-ful”]. Everything of life comes from God to bless us and to grow-us-up. … so, in everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning each one of us. In giving thanks, it shows that you have received not only the gift but have responded to the love from the giver. Thus we must not take any gift for granted. Even if there is a severe famine of ‘‘thank-yous’ as well as ‘pleases’ in this hour, we can constantly respond to his love. God so loved the world, He gave … Are you desiring to come into the fulness of Christ – now at this time? The provision is given, so WHAT IS YOUR VISION?
I say “Amen”.
Love Precedes Glorification
September 25th, 2013Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
30 Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.
The Apostle Paul lays out the glorification process in the above Scripture:
Foreknew
Predestined
Called
Justified
Glorified
In each case “HE” takes credit in accomplishing the process, step, or phase. Who are these people predestined to be glorified? Those who Love GOD. Servias Ministries was established on Love. These blogs have Love as their intent. The Second Census had Love has its basis for inheritance. Those who are reading these blogs are drawn to the intent of Love. Sixteen years ago, I was alerted by Our Heavenly Father that something noteworthy would happen in eight years (2005). That was the year HE directed me to focus on Love. I simply said “Amen”. I set aside all other studies and focus. One year later, HE directed the formation of Servias Ministries. Its function was to serve mankind but I had no details. As I continued to focus on Love, I took notes. HE then directed me to write “The Circumcised Heart of Love” and publish it. I simply said “Amen”.
An interesting thing happened when I began to focus on Love. My perspective on all matters expanded dramatically. Suddenly, the Divine Intent of Love gave me the understanding in certain areas I had been lacking. I wish I could say I changed overnight but I didn’t. The good news is that the change began. I was a hard-driving businessman and began to set it aside to be led by the Spirit in a much greater degree. I thought I was being led by the Spirit to some degree but found I was lacking. Love must be resident to be fully led by the Spirit. The Spirit is motivated by Love.
As we walk in Love, things start to work together on our behalf. The resources of the universe are brought forth for our use. Paul conveyed this truth in verse 28. Those who Love GOD are those called according to HIS purpose. HIS purpose is the manifestation of HIS Love on the earth. If you are not focused on embracing the fullness of Love, how can you expect to fulfill HIS purpose?
These words I am writing today are a call to move your focus to the one requirement in order to be called according to HIS purpose: Love. Everyone wants the end result of glorification. However, glorification is for ministering and serving all of creation, not for self interest. You will not die to self without the revelation of Love. You may talk the talk, but you will not walk the walk without this revelation. Love is the empowerment needed to fulfill glorification. Jesus Loved, died, and was then glorified. He revealed the process.
Love never fails and never ends. It outlasts everything else. Shouldn’t we focus our attention or receiving this eternal aspect of Our Heavenly Father. We have been shown the process that leads to glorification. Do you think we can leave out the most critical aspect of Love?
We are now completing the 16th year since the call was given in 1997. At the beginning of this call, the Jezebel spirit tried to move the focus away. That spirit was exposed and dealt with by HIS grace and mercy. It is not surprising that this spirit again attempted to usurp the authority of Love. Once again, Love prevailed. Love conquers all. He who overcomes will be made a pillar in HIS Temple. The wisdom of Love provides us the support structure of The Kingdom. Nothing else can hold up the weight.
Sowing Discord
September 24th, 2013Proverbs 8:13 The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate.
It seems as though very few speak of “the fear of the LORD” these days. It is as though men have an unfounded reliance in the current system. The recent 1,000 year flood in Boulder, Colorado, and the epic fires in California may necessitate us to rethink our reliance on man and his technology. Our current systems (social, economic, political, and religious) have evil, pride, and arrogancy integrated into them. These attitudes all have “division” at their core. Division is the alternative to unity and each of us should be promoting unity. The fulfillment of unity comes by Love and acceptance of the truth, whatever it may be. When my wife and I inquire of THE LORD, we accept whatever Truth Our Heavenly Father speaks to us. Sometimes, one of us is wrong and needs correction. That is wisdom. The basis of wisdom is the Love of the Truth. This Love makes us teachable and correctible. If we walk in wisdom, our calling will be promoted and the resource necessary for its fulfillment will come forth. We do not have to walk around promoting our calling at the expense of others. Our Heavenly Father will insure that we are at the right place, at the right time, and with the proper resources. HE does not need our help in this respect. When we “fear” him, we acknowledge HIS plan at its fullness. We submit to HIS corrective process of us and others who appear to be resisting our calling. We don’t need a “Kingdom” policeman to appeal to if we see someone infringing on “our” calling. Our Heavenly Father is sufficient to correct HIS children. If someone has gone astray, we should deal with the spiritual entities that are misleading that person, not complaining and judging. We should be interceding on his or her behalf, not sowing discord. Sowing discord creates strife and contention. Ultimately, it leads to the “outer darkness”.
Proverbs 6:
16 These six things the LORD hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
17 A proud look,
A lying tongue,
Hands that shed innocent blood,
18 A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
19 A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord among brethren.
All seven of these things the LORD hates create division in one way or another. Our Heavenly Father loves unity among the brethren. As mature sons and daughters, we should be promoting Love and unity, not division in any of its forms. The Feast of Tabernacles is all about coming together in unity before THE LORD and exalt HIS Truth in Love.
You can be sure there will be resistance to your calling. There will be those who are envious, bitter, or just plain ugly about what you are called to do. Don’t sweat it. Don’t be offended. Just Love them, forgive them, and move on. Our Heavenly Father will give them their “corrective” interview at the appropriate time.
Proverbs 25:
21 If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat;
And if he is thirsty, give him water to drink;
22 For so you will heap coals of fire on his head,
And the LORD will reward you.
